SECTION 7. Insurance Coverage.

(a) Property insurance against loss and damage by all risks of physical loss or damage to the Improvements; and (b) Commercial general liability insurance, including death, bodily injury and broad form property damage coverage with a combined single limit in an amount not less than One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) per occurrence and Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000) in the aggregate for any policy year. SECTION 8. Insurance Policies. (a) All Insurance Policies shall be issued by companies licensed or authorized to issue insurance in the State in which the Land is located and shall name Mortgagee as an additional insured. All Insurance Policies shall provide that the coverage shall not be modified without (30) days' advance written notice to Mortgagee. Mortgagor may obtain any insurance required by Section 7 hereof through blanket policies, provided, however, that such blanket policies shall separately set forth the amount of insurance in force with respect to the Premises (which shall not be reduced by reason of events occurring on property other than the Premises) and shall afford all the protections to Mortgagee as are required under Section 7 hereof and this Section 8. Mortgagor will deliver insurance certificates executed by the insurer or its authorized agent evidencing all Insurance Policies to Mortgagee and, in case of Insurance Policies about to expire, Mortgagor will deliver insurance certificates evidencing all Insurance Policies prior to the date of expiration executed by the insurer or its authorized agent evidencing that the insurance required hereunder is being maintained under such policy. Mortgagor shall furnish Mortgagee receipts for the payment of premiums on such insurance policies as and when due or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to Mortgagee. The Insurance Policy described in Section 7(a) above shall name Mortgagee, as agent for the Holders, as an additional named insured and the Insurance Policy described in Section 7(a) above shall provide that all proceeds be payable to Mortgagee, as agent for the Holders. The Insurance Policy referred to in Section 7(a) above shall also contain: (i) a standard "non-contributory mortgagee" endorsement or its equivalent relating, inter alia, to recovery by Mortgagee notwithstanding the negligent or willful acts or omission of Mortgagee; (ii) to the extent available at commercially reasonable rates, a waiver of subrogation endorsement as to Mortgagee; and (iii) an endorsement providing for a deductible per loss of an amount not more than that which is customarily maintained by prudent owners of similar properties in the general vicinity of the Premises, but in no event in excess of $10,000. All Insurance Policies shall contain (i) a provision that such Insurance Policies shall not be cancelled or terminated, without at least thirty (30) days' prior written notice to Mortgagee in each instance; and (ii) if premiums are paid in installments, include effective waivers by the insurer of all claims for Insurance Premiums (defined below) against any loss payees, additional insureds and named insureds (other than Mortgagor). Certificates of insurance with respect to all renewal and replacement Insurance Policies shall be delivered to Mortgagee not less than twenty (20) days prior to the expiration date of any of the Policies required to be maintained hereunder, which certificates shall bear notations evidencing payment of applicable premiums (the "Insurance Premiums"). Originals or certificates of such replacement Insurance Policies shall be delivered to Mortgagee promptly after Mortgagor's receipt thereof but in any case within thirty (45) days after the effective date thereof. If Mortgagor fails to maintain and deliver to Mortgagee the certificates of insurance required by this Mortgage, upon ten (10) days' prior notice to Mortgagor, Mortgagee may procure such insurance at Mortgagor's sole cost and expense. (b) Mortgagor shall comply with all insurance requirements described in Section 7 and this Section 8 and shall not bring or keep or permit to be brought or kept any article upon any of the Premises or cause or permit any condition to exist thereon which would be prohibited by an insurance requirement, or would invalidate the insurance coverage required hereunder to be maintained by Mortgagor on or with respect to any part of the Premises pursuant to this Section 7 of this Mortgage or this Section 8. SECTION 9. Compliance with Law. (a) Mortgagor will, within the time frames provided by such Legal Requirements, promptly comply with all material Legal Requirements applicable to the Premises, or the use and operation thereof. (b) Mortgagor will maintain all material Permits in full force and effect and comply with all material conditions and requirements of all Permits. (c) Mortgagor will have the right to contest the validity or application of any Legal Requirements with respect to the Premises by appropriate legal proceedings, so long as: (i) such legal proceedings shall be prosecuted in good faith and with due diligence by Mortgagor, (ii) such proceeding shall not subject Mortgagee or Mortgagor to the risk of any criminal or material civil liability and (iii) neither the Premises nor any part thereof shall be affected in any material adverse way as a result of such proceeding and (iv) Mortgagor will, upon a final determination of such contest, take all steps necessary to comply with any Legal Requirements arising therefrom. SECTION 10. Proceeds of Insurance. Mortgagor will give Mortgagee prompt notice of any material loss or damage to the Premises, and: (a) In case of loss or damage covered by any of the Insurance Polices, (i) Mortgagee (or, after entry of decree of foreclosure, the purchaser at the foreclosure sale or decree creditor, as the case may be) is hereby authorized, if an Event of Default has occurred, to settle and adjust any claim under such Insurance Policies without the consent of Mortgagor; and (ii) if no Event of Default has occurred, Mortgagor shall have the sole right to settle and adjust such claim; provided, however, that in either case Mortgagee shall, and is hereby authorized to, collect and receive any such insurance proceeds up to the amount of the Obligations; and the reasonable expenses incurred by Mortgagee in the adjustment and collection of such insurance proceeds shall be additional Obligations, and shall be reimbursed to Mortgagee upon demand or, at Mortgagee's option, in the event and to the extent sufficient proceeds are available, shall be deducted by Mortgagee from said insurance proceeds prior to any other application thereof. Each insurance company which has issued an Insurance Policy is hereby authorized and directed to make payment up to the amount of the Obligations for all losses covered by such Insurance Policy to Mortgagee alone, and not to Mortgagee and Mortgagor jointly. Mortgagor agrees to execute all documents and make all deliveries required in order to permit adjustment and payment of insurance proceeds as provided above. (b) The proceeds of Insurance Policies consequent upon any casualty shall be either (i) if an Event of Default shall be continuing hereunder, applied by Mortgagee to reduce the Obligations, in such order or manner as Mortgagee may elect; or (ii) paid to Mortgagor and, to the extent required by the provisions of Section 10(c) hereof, Mortgagor shall apply such proceeds to the cost of restoring, repairing, replacing or rebuilding (collectively, "Restoring") the loss or damage caused by the casualty. Any application of proceeds pursuant to this Section 10(b) to pay principal outstanding under the Notes shall not subject Mortgagor to the obligation to pay any prepayment premium. (c) To the extent that insurance proceeds are made available to Mortgagor and are sufficient for such purposes, Mortgagor hereby covenants to diligently proceed to restore, repair, replace or rebuild the Improvements to the extent required to comply with all applicable Legal Requirements. (d) Any portion of the insurance proceeds remaining after payment as provided above shall be paid to Mortgagor or as ordered by a court of competent jurisdiction. (e) Any insurance proceeds at any time held by Mortgagee shall be held in a segregated interest bearing account for the benefit of Mortgagor. (f) In the event of foreclosure of the Mortgage or other transfer of title to the Premises in extinguishment of the Obligations, all right, title and interest of Mortgagor in and to any Insurance Policies, to the extent applicable to the Premises (including, without limitation, the right to a refund of insurance premiums and all rights to the proceeds thereof), then in force shall pass to the purchaser of the Premises in foreclosure or the grantee of a deed in lieu of foreclosure, and Mortgagor hereby appoints Mortgagee its attorney-in-fact, in Mortgagor's name, to assign and transfer all such policies and proceeds to such purchaser or grantee, such appointment coupled with an interest with full power of substitution. SECTION 11. Condemnation and Eminent Domain. (a) Any and all awards up to the amount of the Obligations (the "Awards") heretofore or hereafter made or to be made by any governmental or other lawful authority for the taking by condemnation or eminent domain, of all or any part of the Premises (including any award from the United States government at any time after the allowance of a claim therefor, the ascertainment of the amount thereof, and the issuance of a warrant for payment thereof), or the proceeds from a transfer in lieu of such condemnation or eminent domain are hereby assigned by Mortgagor to Mortgagee, which Awards Mortgagee is hereby authorized to collect and receive from the condemnation authorities, and Mortgagee is hereby authorized to give appropriate receipts and acquittances therefor, and Mortgagee is hereby appointed as Mortgagor's attorney-in-fact, coupled with an interest, to collect such Awards. Mortgagor shall give Mortgagee prompt notice of the actual or threatened commencement of any condemnation or eminent domain proceedings affecting all or any part of the Premises and shall deliver to Mortgagee copies of any and all papers served in connection with any such proceedings. Mortgagor further agrees to make, execute, and deliver to Mortgagee, upon request, any and all further assignments and other instruments reasonably necessary for the purpose of validly and sufficiently assigning all Awards and other compensation hereafter made to Mortgagor for any taking, either permanent or temporary, under any such proceeding and all proceeds paid from a sale in lieu of such taking, and to facilitate Mortgagee's collection and receipt of the same. If notwithstanding the foregoing provisions any Award or other compensation described above is nonetheless paid to Mortgagor, Mortgagor shall hold such monies in trust for the benefit of Mortgagee and shall immediately pay the same to Mortgagee. Neither Mortgagor nor Mortgagee may settle or compromise any claim for or right to receive any Award (or related compensation) or its rights under any proceeding with respect thereto without the prior written consent of the other. Notwithstanding any taking (including, without limitation, any transfer made in lieu of such taking), the Obligations shall not be reduced by reason of such taking (or transfer in lieu thereof) unless and until any Award (or related compensation) shall have been actually received and applied by Mortgagee to such Obligations and then only to such extent. Mortgagee shall not be limited to any interest paid on the Award by the condemning authority but shall be entitled to receive out of the Award interest at the rate set forth in the Notes. (b) In the event of any partial taking of the Premises or any interest in the Premises (or transfer in lieu thereof) which leaves the Premises (after taking into account any Restoring to be performed) as an architectural and economic unit of the same character and not materially less valuable than the same was prior to the taking, provided no Event of Default shall have occurred, then the Award and other compensation paid in connection therewith shall be disbursed to Mortgagor and Mortgagor shall Restore the Premises to the extent required by Section 10(c) hereof. In the event of any taking (or transfer in lieu thereof), other than a taking (or transfer in lieu thereof) under which the Award (or other compensation) is required to be disbursed to Mortgagor as provided in the immediately preceding sentence, then any Award (and related compensation) shall be applied against the Obligations in such order or manner as Mortgagee shall elect. Any application of any Award (or other compensation) pursuant to this Section 11 to pay principal outstanding under the Notes shall not subject Mortgagor to the obligation to pay any prepayment premium. SECTION 12. Assignment of Leases and Rents Mortgagor hereby absolutely and presently sells, assigns and transfers unto Mortgagee the Leases and all of the Receipts. Without limiting the foregoing, prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default, Mortgagee hereby grants to Mortgagor a license to collect the Receipts and to act under the Leases, subject, however, to the further conditions and limitations with respect thereto contained herein. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, and whether or not a receiver has been sought or appointed and whether or not Mortgagee has taken possession of the Premises, the aforesaid license shall automatically terminate, and Mortgagee may collect all Receipts, and apply the Receipts so collected in their entirety to, at Mortgagee's option, Taxes, insurance premiums, costs of repair, alteration and/or Restoration of the Premises, utility charges and other costs of operating, maintaining or leasing the Premises and/or to the Obligations (in such order and manner as Mortgagee may elect), after deducting Mortgagee's reasonable costs and expenses of collection of such Receipts (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees). Nothing herein contained shall be construed as constituting Mortgagee a "mortgagee-in-possession" in the absence of the taking of actual possession of the Premises by Mortgagee. Possession by a court-appointed receiver will not be considered possession by Mortgagee. From time to time, following Mortgagee's written request therefor, Mortgagor will furnish Mortgagee with executed copies of each of the Leases. SECTION 13. Leases. Unless consented to by Mortgagee, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, Mortgagor shall not enter into, modify, amend, terminate, or consent to the cancellation or surrender of, any Lease for any portion of the Premises nor collect any rent or other payment under any Lease for any portion of the Premises more than one month in advance of the due date thereof. In addition to any other right or remedy contained herein or in any other Debt Document, Mortgagee shall have all of the rights against lessees of the Premises or any part thereof as are set forth in Section 291-f of the Real Property Law of New York. SECTION 14. Security Agreement Mortgagee and Mortgagor agree that this Mortgage shall constitute a Security Agreement within the meaning of the Code, as the same may be amended from time to time, with respect to (i) any and all sums at any time on deposit for the benefit of Mortgagee or held by Mortgagee (whether deposited by or on behalf of Mortgagor or anyone else) pursuant to any of the provisions of this Mortgage and (ii) any personal property included in the granting clauses of this Mortgage and all replacements, substitutions for, additions to, and proceeds of such personal property (collectively, the "Collateral"), and that a security interest in and to the Collateral is hereby granted to Mortgagee, and the Collateral and all of Mortgagor's right, title and interest therein are hereby assigned to Mortgagee, all to secure payment of the Obligations. All of the terms, provisions, conditions and agreements contained in this Mortgage pertain and apply to the Collateral as fully and to the same extent as to any other property comprising the Premises; and the following provisions of this Section 14 shall not limit the applicability of any other provision of this Mortgage but shall be in addition thereto: (a) The Collateral is to be used by Mortgagor (being the Debtor as that term is defined in the Code) solely for business purposes. (b) The Collateral will be kept at the Premises, and, except for the removal of any portion which is simultaneously replaced with equivalent materials or which is worn out, obsolete or no longer useful in connection with the operation of the Premises or as otherwise permitted by the Purchase Agreement or any other Debt Document, will not be removed therefrom without the consent of Mortgagee (being the Secured Party). The Collateral may be affixed to the Premises but will not be affixed to any other real estate. (c) Except for financing statements representing interests permitted under any other Debt Document, no financing statement (other than financing statements showing Mortgagee as the sole secured party) covering any of the Collateral or any proceeds thereof is on file in any public office; and Mortgagor will, at its own cost and expense, execute and deliver to Mortgagee, upon demand, such financing statements and continuation statements with respect thereto reasonably required by Mortgagee and will do all such acts and things as Mortgagee may at any time or from time to time reasonably request or as may be necessary or appropriate to establish and maintain a first priority perfected security interest in the Collateral as security for the Obligations; and Mortgagor will pay the cost of filing or recording such financing statements, continuation statements or other documents, and this instrument, in all public offices wherever filing or recording is reasonably deemed by Mortgagee to be necessary. (d) Upon an Event of Default hereunder, Mortgagee shall have, in addition to any other remedies set forth herein or available at law or in equity, the remedies of a secured party under the Code, including, without limitation, the right to take immediate and exclusive possession of the Collateral, or any part thereof, and for that purpose may, so far as Mortgagor can give authority therefor, with or without judicial process, enter (if this can be done without breach of the peace), upon any place which the Collateral or any part thereof may be situated and remove the same therefrom (provided, however, that if the Collateral is affixed to real estate, such removal shall be subject to the conditions stated in the Code); and Mortgagee shall be entitled to hold, maintain, preserve and prepare the Collateral for sale, until disposed of, or may propose to retain the Collateral subject to Mortgagor's right of redemption in satisfaction of Mortgagor's obligations, as provided in the Code. Upon an Event of Default hereunder, Mortgagee may render the Collateral unusable without removal and may dispose of the Collateral on the Premises. Upon an Event of Default hereunder, Mortgagee may require Mortgagor to assemble the Collateral and make it available to Mortgagee for its possession at a place to be designated by Mortgagee. Mortgagee will give Mortgagor notice of the time and place of any public sale of the Collateral or of the time after which any private sale or any other intended disposition thereof is to be made. The requirements of notice shall be met if such notice is mailed, by United States Mail or equivalent, postage prepaid, to the address of Mortgagor hereinafter set forth at least ten (10) days before the time of the sale or disposition. Mortgagee may buy at any public sale and, if the Collateral is of a type customarily sold in a recognized market or is of a type which is the subject of widely distributed standard price quotations, Mortgagee may buy at private sale. Any such sale may be held as part of and in conjunction with any foreclosure sale of the Premises, the Premises including all or any portion of the Collateral to be sold as one lot if Mortgagee so elects. The net proceeds realized upon any such disposition, after deduction for the actual reasonable expenses of retaking, holding, preparing for sale, selling or the like and the reasonable attorneys' fees incurred by Mortgagee, shall be applied against the Obligations, in such order and manner as Mortgagee shall elect. (e) The terms and provisions contained in this Section 14 shall, unless the context otherwise requires, have the meanings and be construed as provided in the Code. (f) This Mortgage is intended to be a financing statement within the purview of Section 9-102 of the Code with respect to the Collateral and the goods described herein, which goods are or may become fixtures relating to the Premises. The addresses of Mortgagor (Debtor) and Mortgagee (Secured Party) are as first set forth above. (g) The filing of any financing statement with respect to the Collateral (or any portion thereof) and the provisions of this Section 14 (and similar provisions elsewhere in this Mortgage or the other Debt Documents relating to the Collateral) shall never be construed as in anywise derogating from or impairing this declaration and hereby stated intention of the parties hereto, that everything used in connection with the production of income from the Premises and/or adapted for use therein and/or which is described or reflected in this Mortgage is, and at all times and for all purposes and in all proceedings, both legal and equitable, shall be regarded as part of the real estate irrespective of whether any such item is physically attached to the Improvements. However, the filing of any financing statements and the provisions of this Section 14 are intended to cover any Collateral to the extent that the above-stated intention and declaration may not be fully effective or to the extent Mortgagee otherwise determines that it is in its best interest to proceed against all or any portion of the Collateral as personal property rather than real estate. SECTION 15. Restrictions on Transfer; Maintenance of Existence. (a) Except for the Contemplated Conveyance as described in Section 43 hereof, Mortgagor shall not, without the prior written consent of Mortgagee, create, effect, consent to, suffer to exist or permit any conveyance, sale, assignment, transfer, lien, pledge, mortgage, security interest or other encumbrance or alienation (each a "Transfer") of the Premises or any portion thereof or any interest therein. (b) Mortgagor will at all times preserve its existence and will obtain and maintain in full force and effect its qualification to do business in the State in which the Land is located. SECTION 16. Events of Default. If one or more of the following events (herein called "Events of Default") shall occur for any reason whatsoever, and whether such occurrence shall be voluntary or involuntary or come about or be effected by operation of law or pursuant to or in compliance with any judgment, decree or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of any Governmental Authority or otherwise: (a) An Event of Default shall occur under the Notes; or (b) Failure by Mortgagor to duly keep, perform and observe any material covenant in this Mortgage (unless same constitutes an Event of Default under any other clause of this Section 16, in which case, the grace or cure period, if any, set forth in such other clause shall govern) within thirty (30) days after Mortgagee gives Mortgagor written notice of such failure; provided, however, that in the event such failure is not susceptible of cure within such thirty (30) day period and Mortgagor shall have diligently commenced to cure such failure, in good faith, within such thirty (30) day period and thereafter diligently and expeditiously proceeds to cure the same, such thirty (30) day period shall be extended for so long as it shall require Mortgagor in the exercise of due diligence to cure such failure, it being agreed that, unless otherwise agreed in writing by Mortgagee in its sole discretion, (i) in the case of any such failure under Section 42(a) or Section 42(b), no such extension shall be for a period in excess of one hundred twenty (120) days, and (ii) in any other case, no such extension shall be for a period in excess of sixty (60) days; or (c) If any material representation or warranty made by Mortgagor in this Agreement shall be untrue, incorrect or misleading in any material respect when made; or (d) The entry by a court of (i) a decree or order for relief in respect of Mortgagor in an involuntary case or proceeding under any applicable federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar law; or (ii) a decree or order adjudging Mortgagor a bankrupt or insolvent, or approving as properly filed a petition seeking reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition of or in respect of Mortgagor under any applicable federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar law, or appointing a custodian, receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, sequestrator or other similar official of Mortgagor or of any substantial part of the property of Mortgagor, or ordering the winding up or liquidation of the affairs of Mortgagor, and the continuance of any such decree or order for relief or any such other decree or order unstayed and in effect for a period of sixty (60) days; or (e) (i) The commencement by Mortgagor of a voluntary case or proceeding under any applicable federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar law, or of any other case or proceeding, to be adjudicated a bankrupt or insolvent; (ii) the consent by Mortgagor (A) to the entry of a decree or order for relief in respect of Mortgagor in an involuntary case or proceeding under any applicable federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar law, or (B) to the commencement of any bankruptcy or insolvency case or proceeding against Mortgagor; (iii) the filing by Mortgagor of a petition or answer or consent seeking reorganization or relief under any applicable federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar law; (iv) the consent by Mortgagor to the filing of such petition or to the appointment of or taking possession by a custodian, receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, sequestrator or similar official of Mortgagor, or of any substantial part of any property of Mortgagor; (v) the making by Mortgagor of an assignment for the benefit of creditors; or (vi) the admission by Mortgagor in writing of its inability to pay its debts generally as they become due; then, Mortgagee is hereby authorized and empowered, at its option and without affecting the lien hereby created or the priority of said lien or any other right of Mortgagee hereunder, (i) to declare, without further notice, all Obligations to be immediately due and payable with interest thereon, whether or not such Event of Default shall be thereafter remedied by Mortgagor, and (ii) to exercise any right, power or remedy provided by this Mortgage, the Notes, any of the other Debt Documents or by law or in equity. SECTION 17. Foreclosure. (a) When an Event of Default shall have occurred and is continuing or the Obligations shall become due, Mortgagee shall have the right to foreclose the lien hereof in accordance with the laws of the State in which the Land is located; provided that Mortgagee shall first give written notice to Mortgagor of its intention to foreclose the lien hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Mortgagee hereby agrees that (i) it shall not sell the Premises pursuant to a foreclosure (including foreclosure in accordance with the Power of Sale, as such term is defined below) under this Section 17 until at least sixty (60) days after the date of the notice delivered by Mortgagee in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence and (ii) until consummation of the foreclosure sale, either GP or MXL shall have the right to tender full payment of the outstanding principal amount of the Notes, together with all interest and other sums due thereunder, and, upon receipt by the Holders of such payment, (i) the Holders shall surrender and endorse (without recourse) the original Notes, as directed by the party making such payment, and (ii) Mortgagee shall deliver to Mortgagor a release of this Mortgage in recordable form. In the event that neither GP nor MXL shall have tendered full payment of the outstanding principal amount of the Notes, together with all interest and other sums due thereunder within such sixty (60) day period, then Mortgagee may thereafter immediately proceed to sell the Premises in accordance with the terms of this Mortgage. Mortgagee's agreement to allow such sixty (60) day repayment period shall in no way limit or delay Mortgagee's ability to commence and pursue any foreclosure action. In any suit to foreclose the lien hereof, there shall be allowed and included as additional Obligations in the decree of sale, all reasonable expenditures and expenses which may be paid or incurred by or on behalf of Mortgagee, including reasonable attorneys' fees, as reasonably necessary to prosecute such suit. (b) Where foreclosure sale is permitted as described above, Mortgagee is hereby authorized and empowered to: (i) to the extent permitted by and in accordance with the applicable provisions of law, as the same may be amended, with respect to real property, sell, assign, transfer and deliver the whole or, from time to time, any part of the Premises, or any interest in any part thereof, at any private sale or by public auction, with or without demand, advertisement or notice of the time or place of sale or adjournment thereof or otherwise, for cash, on credit or for other property, for immediate or future delivery, and for such price or prices and on such terms as Mortgagee in its sole and absolute discretion may determine pursuant to a power of sale in accordance with Section 1401 et seq. of the Real Property Actions and Proceedings Law of New York or otherwise (such empowerment and procedure being hereinafter referred to as the "Power of Sale"), or (ii) foreclose the lien hereof for such indebtedness, or such part thereof, by judicial action. With respect to the Power of Sale, Mortgagee may postpone sale of all or any portion of the Premises by announcement at the time and place of sale, and, from time to time thereafter, may further postpone such sale by announcement at the time and place fixed at the preceding postponement. Mortgagee shall deliver to the purchaser its deed or other appropriate instrument transferring title to the Premises, or the interest therein so sold, but without any covenant or warranty, express or implied. The recitals in such instrument of any matter or act shall be conclusive proof of the truthfulness thereof. In case of any sale under this Mortgage, by virtue of judicial proceedings, Power of Sale, or otherwise, the Premises may be sold in one parcel and as an entirety or in such parcels, manner or order as Mortgagee in its sole discretion may elect. (c) If a foreclosure sale is made as to part, but not all of the Obligations, such sale may be subject to the continuing lien of this Mortgage for the unmatured part of the Obligations. Any sale pursuant to a partial foreclosure shall not in any manner affect the unmatured part of the Obligations (and Mortgagee's rights to conduct subsequent foreclosure sales with respect thereto), but, as to such unmatured part of the Obligations, the lien hereof shall remain in full force and effect as if no foreclosure sale had been made under the provisions of this Section 17. Notwithstanding the filing of any action for partial foreclosure or entry of a decree of sale therein, Mortgagee may elect at any time prior to a foreclosure sale pursuant to such decree, to discontinue such partial foreclosure and to accelerate the entire Obligations by reason of the Events of Default upon which such partial foreclosure was predicated or by reason of any other Event of Default, and proceed with full foreclosure proceedings. (d) In any action to foreclose the lien or liens of this Mortgage, including a partial foreclosure, no defense (other than a defense which denies the existence or sufficiency of the material facts upon which the action is grounded), counterclaim (other than a compulsory counterclaim or a counterclaim alleging the repayment in full of the Obligations) or setoff shall be available to Mortgagor. If any defense or counterclaim, other than one permitted by the preceding sentence, is raised in such foreclosure action, such defense or counterclaim shall be dismissed; provided, however, if such defense or counterclaim is based on a claim which could be tried in an action for money damages, such claim may be brought in a separate action which shall not thereafter be consolidated with the foreclosure action. The bringing of any such separate action for money damages shall not be deemed to afford any grounds for staying the foreclosure action. (e) Mortgagee, or any nominee of Mortgagee, may be a purchaser of the Premises or a portion thereof or any interest therein at any sale thereof, and may apply to the purchase price all or any part of the Obligations in lieu of payment in cash of the amount of such Obligations applied. Any such purchaser shall, upon any such purchase, acquire good title to the properties so purchased, free of the lien of this Mortgage and free of all rights of redemption in Mortgagor. SECTION 18. Right of Possession. When an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or when the Obligations shall otherwise become due, Mortgagor shall, forthwith upon demand of Mortgagee, surrender to Mortgagee, and Mortgagee shall be entitled to take actual possession of, the Premises or any part thereof, personally, by its agent or attorneys or have a receiver placed in possession pursuant to court order, and Mortgagee, in its discretion, personally, by its agents or attorneys or the receiver, if any, may enter upon and take and maintain possession of all or any part of the Premises, together with all documents, books, records, papers, and accounts of Mortgagor, and may exclude Mortgagor, and any agents and servants thereof wholly therefrom and may, on behalf of Mortgagor, or in its own name as Mortgagee and under the powers herein granted take any and all actions in connection with the operation, maintenance, management and use of the Premises including, without limitation: (a) hold, operate, manage, and control all or any part of the Premises and conduct the business thereof, if any, with full power to use such measures, legal or equitable, as in its discretion may be deemed proper or necessary to enforce the payment or security of the Receipts, including without limitation actions for recovery of rent, actions in forcible detainer, and actions in distress for rent, all without notice to Mortgagor; (b) cancel or terminate any Lease or sublease of all or any part of the Premises for any cause or on any ground that would entitle Mortgagor to cancel the same; (c) elect to disaffirm any Lease or sublease of all or any part of the Premises made subsequent to this Mortgage in violation of the terms of the Purchase Agreement; (d) extend or modify any then existing Leases and make new Leases of all or any part of the Premises, which extensions, modifications, and new Leases may provide for terms to expire, or for options to lessees to extend or renew terms to expire, beyond the Maturity Date, it being understood and agreed that any such Leases, and the options or other such provisions to be contained therein, shall be binding upon Mortgagor, all Persons whose interests in the Premises are subject to the lien hereof, and the purchaser or purchasers at any foreclosure sale, notwithstanding any redemption, reinstatement, discharge of the Obligations, satisfaction of any foreclosure decree, or issuance of any certificate of sale or deed to any such purchaser; (e) make all necessary or proper repairs, decoration, renewals, replacements, alterations, additions, betterments, and improvements in 15 connection with the Premises as may seem judicious to Mortgagee, insure and reinsure the Premises and all risks incidental to Mortgagee's possession, operation, and management thereof, and receive all Receipts; (f) enter into any management, leasing or brokerage agreements covering the Premises in accordance with the terms of the Purchase Agreement and the other Debt Documents; and/or (g) after allowing a fee for the collection thereof (including lease commissions and other compensation and expenses of seeking and procuring tenants and entering into Leases) and for the management of the Premises, apply the net income to the payment of Taxes, insurance premiums, costs described in clause (e) above, costs of operating and maintaining the Premises and other charges applicable to the Premises, or in reduction of the Obligations in such order and manner as Mortgagee shall select. Nothing herein contained shall be construed as constituting Mortgagee a mortgagee in possession in the absence of the actual taking of possession of the Premises. Mortgagor shall and does hereby agree to indemnify and hold harmless Mortgagee of and from any and all liability, actual loss or damage which it may or might incur by reason of its performance of any action authorized under this Section 18 (other than liability, loss or damage caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Mortgagee or its employees, officers, representatives, contractors or agents, provided that the same are acting in their capacity as such) and of and from any and all claims and demands whatsoever which may be asserted against it by reason of any alleged obligations or undertakings on its part to perform or discharge any of the terms, covenants or agreements of Mortgagor. Should Mortgagee incur any such liability, actual loss or damage by its performance or nonperformance of actions authorized by this Section 18, or in the defense of any such claims or demands, the amount thereof, including reasonable costs, expenses and attorneys' fees shall be Obligations and Mortgagor shall reimburse Mortgagee therefor immediately upon demand. SECTION 19. Receiver. Mortgagee, in any action to foreclose this Mortgage or upon the occurrence of any Event of Default hereunder, shall be at liberty, without notice, to apply for the appointment of a receiver of the Premises, and shall be entitled to the appointment of such receiver as a matter of right, without regard to the value of the Premises as security for the Obligations, or the solvency or insolvency of any person then liable for the payment of the Obligations. SECTION 20. Proceeds of Foreclosure Sale. The proceeds of any foreclosure sale of the Premises shall be distributed and applied in the following order of priority: (a) First, to payment of all costs and expenses incident to the foreclosure proceedings, including, without limitation, all such items as are mentioned in Section 18(a) hereof; (b) Second, to all sums expended under the terms hereof, not then repaid, with accrued interest at the rate provided herein; (c) Third, to all other sums which under the terms hereof constitute Obligations other than the principal and interest payable under the Notes in such order as Mortgagee shall elect, with interest thereon as herein provided; (d) Fourth, to all principal and interest payable under the Notes in such order as Mortgagee shall elect; and (e) Fifth, the remainder, if any, to the Person or Persons legally entitled thereto. SECTION 21. Waiver of Right of Redemption and Other Rights. To the full extent permitted by law, Mortgagor hereby covenants and agrees that it will not at any time insist upon or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take any advantage of, any stay, exemption or extension law or any so-called "moratorium law" now or at any time hereafter in force, nor claim, take or insist upon any benefit or advantage of or from any law now or hereafter in force providing for the valuation or appraisement of the Premises, or any part thereof, prior to any sale or sales thereof to be made pursuant to any provisions herein contained, or to any decree, judgment or order of any court of competent jurisdiction; or claim or exercise any rights under any statute now or hereafter in force to redeem the property, or any part thereof, or relating to the marshaling thereof, upon foreclosure sale or other enforcement hereof. To the full extent permitted by law, Mortgagor hereby expressly waives any and all rights to reinstatement and redemption, on its own behalf, on behalf of all Persons claiming or having an interest (direct or indirect) by, through or under Mortgagor and on behalf of each and every Person acquiring any interest in or title to the Premises subsequent to the date hereof, it being the intent hereof that any and all such rights of reinstatement and redemption of Mortgagor and such other Persons, are and shall be deemed to be hereby waived to the full extent permitted by applicable law. To the full extent permitted by law, Mortgagor hereby waives any statute of limitations applicable to this Mortgage or the other Debt Documents. SECTION 22. Successors and Assigns. (a) Successors and Assigns. This Mortgage and each and every covenant, agreement and other provision hereof shall be binding upon Mortgagor and its successors and assigns as owner of the Premises, including MXL upon completion of the Contemplated Conveyance, and shall inure to the benefit of Mortgagee and its successors and assigns. (b) Covenants Run With Land; Successor Owners. All of the covenants of this Mortgage shall run with the Land and be binding upon successor owners of the Premises or any portion thereof. If the ownership of the Premises or any portion thereof becomes vested in a Person or Persons other than Mortgagor, Mortgagee may, without notice to Mortgagor, deal with such successor or successors in interest of Mortgagor with reference to this Mortgage and the Obligations in the same manner as with Mortgagor without in any way releasing or discharging Mortgagor from its obligations hereunder. The word "Mortgagor" when used herein shall include the original Mortgagor named in the first paragraph hereof, the original Mortgagor's successors and assigns and all owners from time-to-time of the Premises claiming by, through or under Mortgagor. Nothing in this Section 22 shall vary or negate the effect of the provisions of Section 8.3 or 8.5 of the Purchase Agreement. SECTION 23. Subrogation. If any part of the Obligations is used directly or indirectly to pay off, discharge or satisfy, in whole or in part, any prior lien or encumbrance upon the Premises or any part thereof, then, to the extent permitted by law, Mortgagee shall be subrogated to the rights of the holder thereof in and to such other lien or encumbrance and any additional security held by such holder, and shall have the benefit of the priority of the same. SECTION 24. Governing Law. The place of negotiation, execution and delivery of this Mortgage is the State of New York. This Mortgage shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of New York. It is the intent of the parties hereto that the provisions of Section 5-1401 of the General Obligations Law of the State of New York apply to this Mortgage. SECTION 25. Captions and Pronouns. (a) The captions and headings of the various sections of this Mortgage are for convenience only, and are not to be construed as confining or limiting in any way the scope or intent of the provisions hereof. Whenever the context requires or permits, the singular shall include the plural, the plural shall include the singular, and the masculine, feminine and neuter shall be freely interchangeable. (b) Wherever reference is made in this Mortgage to the Notes, this Mortgage or any other Debt Document, the same shall be deemed to refer to such document as the same may have been amended or modified. SECTION 26. Release. If Mortgagor (or any other Person) shall fully pay to Mortgagee all principal outstanding under the Notes, all interest accrued thereon and all other sums owing under the Notes and this Mortgage, Mortgagee shall release this Mortgage and the lien hereof by proper instrument(s) or, at Mortgagor's sole cost and expense and upon request of Mortgagor, assign this Mortgage, the lien hereof, and the Notes to such Person or Persons as Mortgagor shall elect and Mortgagor shall pay all reasonable costs and expenses, including reasonable attorney's fees, in connection with the preparation, recordation and filing thereof. SECTION 27. Defeasance. (a) Mortgagor shall have the right, at any time after the date on which the outstanding principal amount of the Notes has been reduced to $1,875,000.00, to voluntarily defease the entire Obligations and obtain a release of the lien of the Mortgage by providing Mortgagee with the Defeasance Collateral (hereinafter, a "Defeasance Event"), subject to the satisfaction of the following conditions precedent: (i) Mortgagor shall provide Mortgagee not less than ten (10) days notice (or such shorter period of time if permitted by Mortgagee in its sole discretion) specifying the date (the "Defeasance Date") on which the Defeasance Event is to occur; (ii) Mortgagor shall deposit the Defeasance Collateral into the Defeasance Collateral Account and otherwise comply with the provisions of Sections 27(b) and 27(c) hereof; (iii) Mortgagor shall execute and deliver to Mortgagee a Security Agreement in respect of the Defeasance Collateral Account and the Defeasance Collateral; and (iv) Mortgagor shall pay all reasonable costs and expenses of Mortgagee incurred in connection with the Defeasance Event, including Mortgagee's reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses. (b) If Mortgagor has elected to defease the Notes and the requirements of this Section 27 have been satisfied, the Premises shall be released from the lien of the Mortgage and the Defeasance Collateral pledged pursuant to the Security Agreement shall be the sole source of collateral securing the Notes. In connection with the release of the lien of the Mortgage, Mortgagor shall submit to Mortgagee, not less than five (5) days prior to the Defeasance Date (or such shorter time as permitted by Mortgagee in its sole discretion), a release of lien (and related Debt Documents) for execution by Mortgagee. Such release shall be in a form which is (i) appropriate in the jurisdiction in which the Premises is located and (ii) satisfactory to a prudent Mortgagee. In addition, Mortgagor shall provide all other documentation Mortgagee reasonably requires to be delivered by Mortgagor in connection with such release. Mortgagor shall pay all reasonable costs and expenses associated with the release of the lien of the Mortgage, including Mortgagee's reasonable attorneys' fees. (c) If Mortgagor has specified in the notice delivered pursuant to Section 27(a)(i) hereof that it desires to effectuate a Defeasance Event in a manner which will permit the assignment of the Notes and the Mortgage to a new mortgagee providing a portion of the funds necessary to acquire the Defeasance Collateral in order to save mortgage recording tax, Mortgagor and Mortgagee shall cooperate to effect such proposed assignment in the following manner: Mortgagee (and the Holders, if required by Mortgagor) shall assign the Notes and the Mortgage, each without covenant or warranty of any nature, express or implied, to such new mortgagee designated by Mortgagor; provided that Mortgagor (i) has executed and delivered to such new mortgagee a new note to be secured by the Defeasance Collateral pursuant to the Security Agreement between Mortgagor and such new mortgagee (such new note to have the same term, interest rate, unpaid principal balance and all other material terms and conditions of the Notes), which new note, together with the Security Agreement and the rights of such new mortgagee in and to the Defeasance Collateral, shall be assigned by such new mortgagee to Mortgagee simultaneously with and in consideration of the assignment of the Notes and the Mortgage (and other Debt Documents, if requested by Mortgagor) by Mortgagee to such new mortgagee and (ii) has complied with all other provisions of this Section 27 to the extent not inconsistent with this Section 27(c). In addition, any such assignment shall be conditioned on the following: (A) payment by Mortgagor of the reasonable expenses of Mortgagee incurred in connection therewith, including Mortgagee's reasonable attorneys' fees for the preparation of such assignment; (B) Mortgagor shall have caused the delivery of an executed Statement of Oath under Section 275 of the New York Real Property Law; (C) such new mortgagee shall materially modify the Notes such that they shall be treated as a new loan for federal tax purposes; (D) such an assignment is not then prohibited by any federal, state or local law, rule, regulation, order or by any other Governmental Authority; and (E) Mortgagor shall be responsible for all mortgage recording taxes, recording fees and other similar charges payable in connection with any such assignment.
