     (i) suffer or permit no change in the use or general nature of the
occupancy of the Premises, without the Mortgagee’s prior written consent (which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed);
     (j) not initiate or acquiesce in any zoning reclassification with respect

and
     (l) shall comply, and shall cause the Premises at all times to be operated
in compliance, with all applicable federal, state, local and municipal
environmental, health and safety laws, statutes, ordinances, rules and
regulations (except such non-compliance that could not, if enforced in
accordance with applicable law, reasonably be expected to result, either
individually or in the aggregate, in a Material Adverse Effect (as defined in
the Credit Agreement)), including, without limitation, Mortgagor shall
(i) ensure, and cause each of its subsidiaries to ensure, that no person who
owns twenty percent (20.00%) or more of the equity interests in the Mortgagor,

3.   Payment of Taxes and Assessments.

     The Mortgagor will pay when due and before any penalty attaches, all
general and special taxes, assessments, water charges, sewer charges, and other
fees, taxes, charges and assessments of every kind and nature whatsoever (all
herein generally called “Taxes”), whether or not assessed against the Mortgagor,
if applicable to the Premises or any interest therein, or the Indebtedness, or
any obligation or agreement secured hereby, subject to the Mortgagor’s right to
contest the same, as provided by the terms hereof; and the Mortgagor will, upon
written request, furnish to the Mortgagee duplicate receipts therefor within ten
(10) days after the Mortgagee’s request.

4.   Tax Deposits.

     Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, and at the Mortgagee’s option,
the Mortgagor shall deposit with the Mortgagee, on the first day of each month
until the Indebtedness is fully paid, a sum equal to one-twelfth (1/12th) of one
hundred five percent

8

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

(105.00%) of the most recent ascertainable annual Taxes on the Premises. If
requested by the Mortgagee, the Mortgagor shall also deposit with the Mortgagee
an amount of money which, together with the aggregate of the monthly deposits to
be made pursuant to the preceding sentence as of one month prior to the date on
which the next installment of annual Taxes for the current calendar year become
due, shall be sufficient to pay in full such installment of annual Taxes, as
estimated by the Mortgagee. Such deposits are to be held without any allowance
of interest and are to be used for the payment of Taxes next due and payable
when they become due. If the funds so deposited are insufficient to pay any such
Taxes for any year (or installments thereof, as applicable) when the same shall
become due and payable, the Mortgagor shall, within ten (10) days after receipt
of written demand therefor, deposit additional funds as may be necessary to pay
such Taxes in full. If the funds so deposited exceed the amount required to pay
such Taxes for any year, the excess shall be applied toward subsequent deposits.
Said deposits need not be kept separate and apart from any other funds of the
Mortgagee. The Mortgagee, in making any payment hereby authorized relating to
Taxes, may do so according to any bill, statement or estimate procured from the
appropriate public office without inquiry into the accuracy of such bill,
statement or estimate or into the validity of any tax, assessment, sale,
forfeiture, tax lien or title or claim thereof.

5.   Mortgagee’s Interest In and Use of Deposits.

     Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the
Mortgagee may, at its option, apply any monies at the time on deposit pursuant
to Section 4 hereof to cure an Event of Default or to pay any of the
Indebtedness in such order and manner as the Mortgagee may elect. If such
deposits are used to cure an Event of Default or pay any of the Indebtedness,
the Mortgagor shall immediately, upon demand by the Mortgagee, deposit with the
Mortgagee an amount equal to the amount expended by the Mortgagor from the
deposits. When the Indebtedness has been fully paid, any remaining deposits
shall be returned to the Mortgagor. Such deposits are hereby pledged as
additional security for the Indebtedness and shall not be subject to the
direction or control of the Mortgagor. The Mortgagee shall not be liable for any
failure to apply to the payment of Taxes any amount so deposited unless the
Mortgagor, prior to an Event of Default, shall have requested the Mortgagee in
writing to make application of such funds to the payment of such amounts,
accompanied by the bills for such Taxes. The Mortgagee shall not be liable for
any act or omission taken in good faith or pursuant to the instruction of any
party.

6.   Insurance.

     (a) The Mortgagor shall at all times keep all buildings, improvements,
fixtures and articles of personal property now or hereafter situated on the
Premises insured against loss or damage by fire and such other hazards as may
reasonably be required by the Mortgagee, in accordance with the terms, coverages
and provisions described in and required by the Credit Agreement. Unless the
Mortgagor provides the Mortgagee evidence of the insurance coverages required
hereunder, the Mortgagee may purchase insurance at the Mortgagor’s expense to
cover the Mortgagee’s interest in the Premises. The insurance may, but need not,
protect the Mortgagor’s interest. The coverages that the Mortgagee purchases may
not pay any claim that the Mortgagor makes or any claim that is made against the
Mortgagor in connection with the

9

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

Premises. The Mortgagor may later cancel any insurance purchased by the
Mortgagee, but only after providing the Mortgagee with evidence that the
Mortgagor has obtained insurance as required by this Mortgage. If the Mortgagee
purchases insurance for the Premises, the Mortgagor will be responsible for the
costs of such insurance, including, without limitation, interest and any other
charges which the Mortgagee may impose in connection with the placement of the
insurance, until the effective date of the cancellation or expiration of the
insurance. The costs of the insurance may be added to the Indebtedness. The cost
of the insurance may be more than the cost of insurance the Mortgagor may be
able to obtain on its own.
     (b) The Mortgagor shall not take out separate insurance concurrent in form
or contributing in the event of loss with that required to be maintained
hereunder unless the Mortgagee is included thereon as the loss payee or an
additional insured as applicable, under a standard mortgage clause acceptable to
the Mortgagee and such separate insurance is otherwise acceptable to the
Mortgagee.
     (i) In the event of loss, all insurance proceeds arising therefrom shall be
applied as set forth in Section 2.14(b) of the Credit Agreement.

7.   Condemnation.

     If all or any part of the Premises are damaged, taken or acquired, either
temporarily or permanently, in any condemnation proceeding, or by exercise of
the right of eminent domain, the amount of any award or other payment for such
taking or damages made in consideration thereof shall be applied as set forth in
Section 2.14(b) of the Credit Agreement.

8.   Stamp Tax.

     If, by the laws of the United States of America, or of any state or
political subdivision having jurisdiction over the Mortgagor, any tax is due or
becomes due in respect of the execution and delivery of this Mortgage, the Notes
or any of the other Loan Documents, the Mortgagor shall pay such tax in the
manner required by any such law. The Mortgagor further agrees to reimburse the
Mortgagee for any sums which the Mortgagee may expend by reason of the
imposition of any such tax. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Mortgagor shall
not be required to pay any income or franchise taxes of the Mortgagee.

9.   Rents and Leases.

     (a) The Mortgagor hereby represents and warrants to the Mortgagee that:
(i) the Mortgagor is the landlord under all Leases; (ii) there is no other
existing assignment of the Mortgagor’s entire or any part of its interest in or
to any of the Leases, or any of the rents, issues, income or profits assigned
hereunder, nor has the Mortgagor entered into any agreement to subordinate any
of the Leases or the Mortgagor’s right to receive any of the rents, issues,
income or profits assigned hereunder; (c) the Mortgagor has not executed any
instrument or performed any act which may prevent the Mortgagee from operating
under any of the terms and provisions hereof or which would limit the Mortgagee
in such operation; and (iv) there are no defaults by the landlord and, to the
Mortgagor’s knowledge, there are no material defaults by tenants under any
Leases.

10

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

     (b) The Mortgagor covenants and agrees that it shall: (i) not lease any
portion of the Premises unless the Mortgagor obtains the Mortgagee’s prior
written consent to all aspects of such lease (which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed); and (ii) observe and perform all of the
covenants, terms, conditions and agreements contained in the Leases to be
observed or performed by the landlord thereunder, and the Mortgagor shall not do
or suffer to be done anything to impair the security thereof.
     (c) The Mortgagor shall not (i) release the liability of any tenant under
any Lease, (ii) consent to any tenant’s withholding of rent or making monetary
advances and off-setting the same against future rentals, (iii) consent to any
tenant’s claim of a total or partial eviction, (iv) consent to a tenant
termination or cancellation of any Lease, except as specifically provided
therein, or (v) enter into any oral leases with respect to all or any portion of
the Premises.
     (d) The Mortgagor shall not: (i) collect any of the rents, issues, income
or profits assigned hereunder more than thirty days in advance of the time when
the same shall become due, except for security or similar deposits; (ii) make
any other assignment of its entire or any part of its interest in or to any or
all Leases, or any or all rents, issues, income or profits assigned hereunder,
except as specifically permitted by the Loan Documents; (iii) modify the terms
and provisions of any Lease, nor shall the Mortgagor give any consent
(including, but not limited to, any consent to any assignment of, or subletting
under, any Lease, except as expressly permitted thereby) or approval, required
or permitted by such terms and provisions or cancel or terminate any Lease,
without the Mortgagee’s prior written consent (which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed); (iv) accept a surrender of any Lease or
convey or transfer, or suffer or permit a conveyance or transfer, of the
premises demised under any Lease or of any interest in any Lease so as to
effect, directly or indirectly, proximately or remotely, a merger of the estates
and rights of, or a termination or diminution of the obligations of, any tenant
thereunder, it being understood that any termination fees payable under a Lease
for the early termination or surrender thereof shall be paid jointly to the
Mortgagor and the Mortgagee (v) alter, modify or change the terms of any
guaranty of any Lease, or cancel or terminate any such guaranty or do or permit
to be done anything which would terminate any such guaranty as a matter of law;
(vi) waive or excuse the obligation to pay rent under any Lease.
     (e) The Mortgagor shall, at its sole cost and expense: (i) appear in and
defend any and all actions and proceedings arising under, relating to or in any
manner connected with any Lease or the obligations, duties or liabilities of the
lessor or any tenant or guarantor thereunder, and shall pay all costs and
expenses of the Mortgagee, including court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees,
in any such action or proceeding in which the Mortgagee may appear through no
fault of the Mortgagee; (ii) give prompt notice to the Mortgagee of any notice
of any default by the lessor under any Lease received from any tenant or
guarantor thereunder; (iii) enforce the observance and performance of each
covenant, term, condition and agreement contained in each Lease to be observed
and performed by the tenants and guarantors thereunder and shall immediately
notify the Mortgagee of any material breach by the tenant or guarantor under any
such Lease.

11

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

     (f) The Mortgagor shall not permit any of the Leases to become subordinate
to any lien or liens other than liens securing the indebtedness secured hereby
or liens for general real estate taxes not delinquent.
     (g) The Mortgagor shall not execute hereafter any Lease unless there shall
be included therein a provision providing that the tenant thereunder
acknowledges that such Lease has been assigned pursuant to this Mortgage and
agrees not to look to the Mortgagee as mortgagee, mortgagee in possession or
successor in title to the Premises for accountability for any security deposit
required by lessor under such Lease unless such sums have actually been received
in cash by the Mortgagee as security for tenant’s performance under such Lease.
     (h) If any tenant under any Lease is or becomes the subject of any
proceeding under the Federal Bankruptcy Code, as amended from time to time, or
any other federal, state or local statute which provides for the possible
termination or rejection of the Leases assigned hereby, the Mortgagor covenants
and agrees that if any such Lease is so terminated or rejected, no settlement
for damages shall be made without the prior written consent of the Mortgagee,
and any check in payment of damages for termination or rejection of any such
Lease will be made payable both to the Mortgagor and the Mortgagee. The
Mortgagor hereby assigns any such payment to the Mortgagee and further covenants
and agrees that upon the request of the Mortgagee, it will duly endorse to the
order of the Mortgagee any such check.

10.   Effect of Extensions of Time and Other Changes.

     If the payment of the Indebtedness or any part thereof is extended or
varied, if any part of any security for the payment of the Indebtedness is
released, if the rate of interest charged under the Notes is changed or if the
time for payment thereof is extended or varied, all persons now or at any time
hereafter liable therefor, or interested in the Premises or having an interest
in the Mortgagor, shall be held to assent to such extension, variation, release
or change and their liability and the lien and all of the provisions hereof
shall continue in full force, any right of recourse against all such persons
being expressly reserved by the Mortgagee, notwithstanding such extension,
variation, release or change.

11.   Effect of Changes in Laws Regarding Taxation.

     If any law is enacted after the date hereof requiring (a) the deduction of
any lien on the Premises from the value thereof for the purpose of taxation or
(b) the imposition upon the Mortgagee of the payment of the whole or any part of
the Taxes, charges or liens herein required to be paid by the Mortgagor, or
(c) a change in the method of taxation of mortgages or debts secured by
mortgages or the Mortgagee’s interest in the Premises, or the manner of
collection of taxes, so as to affect this Mortgage or the Indebtedness or the
holders thereof, then the Mortgagor, upon demand by the Mortgagee, shall pay
such Taxes or charges, or reimburse the Mortgagee therefor; provided, however,
that the Mortgagor shall not be deemed to be required to pay any income or
franchise taxes of the Mortgagee.

12.   Mortgagee’s Performance of Defaulted Acts and Expenses Incurred by
Mortgagee.

12

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

     If an Event of Default has occurred, the Mortgagee may, but need not, make
any payment or perform any act herein required of the Mortgagor in any form and
manner deemed expedient by the Mortgagee, and may, but need not, make full or
partial payments of principal or interest on prior encumbrances, if any, and
purchase, discharge, compromise or settle any tax lien or other prior lien or
title or claim thereof, or redeem from any tax sale or forfeiture affecting the
Premises or consent to any tax or assessment or cure any default of the
Mortgagor in any lease of the Premises. All monies paid for any of the purposes
herein authorized and all expenses paid or incurred in connection therewith,
including reasonable attorneys’ fees, and any other monies advanced by the
Mortgagee in regard to any tax referred to in Section 8 above or to protect the
Premises or the lien hereof, shall be so much additional Indebtedness, and shall
become immediately due and payable by the Mortgagor to the Mortgagee, upon
demand, and with interest thereon accruing from the date of such demand until
paid at the rate of interest payable during the continuance of an Event of
Default pursuant to the Credit Agreement (the “Default Rate”). In addition to
the foregoing, any costs, expenses and fees, including reasonable attorneys’
fees, incurred by the Mortgagee in connection with (a) sustaining the lien of
this Mortgage or its priority, (b) protecting or enforcing any of the
Mortgagee’s rights hereunder, (c) recovering any Indebtedness, (d) any
litigation or proceedings affecting the Notes, this Mortgage, any of the other
Loan Documents or the Premises, including without limitation, bankruptcy and
probate proceedings, or (e) preparing for the commencement, defense or
participation in any threatened litigation or proceeding affecting the Notes,
this Mortgage, any of the other Loan Documents or the Premises that is
instituted without the fault of the Mortgagee, shall be so much additional
Indebtedness, and shall become immediately due and payable by the Mortgagor to
the Mortgagee, upon demand, and with interest thereon accruing from the date of
such demand until paid at the Default Rate. The interest accruing under this
section shall be immediately due and payable by the Mortgagor to the Mortgagee,
and shall be additional Indebtedness evidenced by the Notes and secured by this
Mortgage. The Mortgagee’s failure to act shall never be considered as a waiver
of any right accruing to the Mortgagee on account of any Event of Default.
Should any amount paid out or advanced by the Mortgagee hereunder, or pursuant
to any agreement executed by the Mortgagor in connection with the Loan, be used
directly or indirectly to pay off, discharge or satisfy, in whole or in part,
any lien or encumbrance upon the Premises or any part thereof, then the
Mortgagee shall be subrogated to any and all rights, equal or superior titles,
liens and equities, owned or claimed by any owner or holder of said outstanding
liens, charges and indebtedness, regardless of whether said liens, charges and
indebtedness are acquired by assignment or have been released of record by the
holder thereof upon payment.

13.   Security Agreement.

     The Mortgagor and the Mortgagee agree that this Mortgage shall constitute a
Security Agreement within the meaning of the Code with respect to the
Mortgagor’s right, title and interest in and to (a) all sums at any time on
deposit for the benefit of the Mortgagor or held by the Mortgagee (whether
deposited by or on behalf of the Mortgagor or anyone else) pursuant to any of
the provisions of this Mortgage or the other Loan Documents, and (b) with
respect to any personal property included in the granting clauses of this
Mortgage, which personal property may not be deemed to be affixed to the
Premises or may not constitute a “Fixture” (within the

13

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

meaning of Section 9-102(41) of the Code and which property is hereinafter
referred to as “Personal Property”), and all replacements of, substitutions for,
additions to, and the proceeds thereof, and the “Supporting Obligations” (as
defined in the Code) (all of said Personal Property and the replacements,
substitutions and additions thereto and the proceeds thereof being sometimes
hereinafter collectively referred to as “Collateral”), and that a security
interest in and to the Collateral is hereby granted to the Mortgagee, and the
Collateral and all of the Mortgagor’s right, title and interest therein are
hereby assigned to the Mortgagee, all to secure payment of the Indebtedness. All
of the provisions 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 shall not limit the
applicability of any other provision of this Mortgage but shall be in addition
thereto:
     (a) The Mortgagor (being the Debtor as that term is used in the Code) is
and will be the true and lawful owner of the Collateral, subject to no liens,
charges or encumbrances other than the lien hereof, other liens and encumbrances
benefiting the Mortgagee and no other party, and liens and encumbrances, if any,
expressly permitted by the other Loan Documents.
     (b) The Collateral is to be used by the Mortgagor solely for business
purposes.
     (c) The Collateral will be kept at the Real Estate and, except for Obsolete
Collateral (as hereinafter defined), will not be removed therefrom without the
consent of the Mortgagee (being the Secured Party as that term is used in the
Code). The Collateral may be affixed to the Real Estate but will not be affixed
to any other real estate.
     (d) The only persons having any interest in the Premises are the Mortgagor,
the Mortgagee and holders of interests, if any, expressly permitted hereby.
     (e) No Financing Statement (other than Financing Statements showing the
Mortgagee as the sole secured party, or with respect to Permitted Liens or liens
or encumbrances, if any, expressly permitted hereby) covering any of the
Collateral or any proceeds thereof is on file in any public office except
pursuant hereto or the Credit Agreement; and the Mortgagor, at its own cost and
expense, upon demand, will furnish to the Mortgagee such further information and
will execute and deliver to the Mortgagee such financing statements and other
documents in form reasonably satisfactory to the Mortgagee and will do all such
acts as the Mortgagee may request at any time or from time to time or as may be
necessary or appropriate to establish and maintain a perfected security interest
in the Collateral as security for the Indebtedness, subject to no other liens or
encumbrances, other than liens or encumbrances benefiting the Mortgagee and no
other party, and liens and encumbrances (if any) expressly permitted hereby; and
the Mortgagor will pay the cost of filing or recording such financing statements
or other documents, and this instrument, in all public offices wherever filing
or recording is deemed by the Mortgagee to be desirable. The Mortgagor hereby
irrevocably authorizes the Mortgagee at any time, and from time to time, to file
in any jurisdiction any initial financing statements and amendments thereto,
without the signature of the Mortgagor

14

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

that (i) indicate the Collateral (A) is comprised of all assets of the Mortgagor
or words of similar effect, regardless of whether any particular asset
comprising a part of the Collateral falls within the scope of Article 9 of the
Uniform Commercial Code of the jurisdiction wherein such financing statement or
amendment is filed, or (B) as being of an equal or lesser scope or within
greater detail as the grant of the security interest set forth herein, and
(ii) contain any other information required by Section 5 of Article 9 of the
Uniform Commercial Code of the jurisdiction wherein such financing statement or
amendment is filed regarding the sufficiency or filing office acceptance of any
financing statement or amendment, including (A) whether the Mortgagor is an
organization, the type of organization and any organizational identification
number issued to the Mortgagor, and (B) in the case of a financing statement
filed as a fixture filing or indicating Collateral as as-extracted collateral or
timber to be cut, a sufficient description of the real property to which the
Collateral relates. The Mortgagor agrees to furnish any such information to the
Mortgagee promptly upon request. The Mortgagor further ratifies and affirms its
authorization for any financing statements and/or amendments thereto, executed
and filed by the Mortgagee in any jurisdiction prior to the date of this
Mortgage. In addition, the Mortgagor shall make appropriate entries on its books
and records disclosing the Mortgagee’s security interests in the Collateral.
     (f) Upon an Event of Default hereunder, the Mortgagee shall, to the extent
permitted by applicable law, have 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, so far
as the Mortgagor can give authority therefor, with or without judicial process,
may 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 that if the Collateral is affixed to real estate, such removal shall
be subject to the conditions stated in the Code); and the 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 the Mortgagor’s
right of redemption in satisfaction of the Mortgagor’s obligations, as provided
in the Code. The Mortgagee may render the Collateral unusable without removal
and may dispose of the Collateral on the Premises. The Mortgagee may require the
Mortgagor to assemble the Collateral and make it available to the Mortgagee for
its possession at a place to be designated by the Mortgagee which is reasonably
convenient to both parties. The Mortgagee will give the Mortgagor at least ten
(10) days 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 made. The requirements of reasonable notice shall be met if such
notice is mailed, by certified United States mail or equivalent, postage
prepaid, to the address of the Mortgagor hereinafter set forth at least ten
(10) days before the time of the sale or disposition. The Mortgagee may buy at
any public sale. The Mortgagee may buy at private sale 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. Any such sale may be
held in conjunction with any foreclosure sale of the Premises. If the Mortgagee
so elects, the Premises and the Collateral may be sold as one lot. The net
proceeds realized upon any such disposition, after deduction for the expenses of
retaking, holding, preparing for sale, selling and the reasonable attorneys’
fees and legal expenses

15

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

incurred by the Mortgagee, shall be applied against the Indebtedness in such
order or manner as the Mortgagee shall select. The Mortgagee will account to the
Mortgagor for any surplus realized on such disposition.
     (g) The terms and provisions contained in this section, unless otherwise
defined herein or the context otherwise requires, shall have the meanings and be
construed as provided in the Code.
     (h) This Mortgage is intended to be a financing statement within the
purview of Section 9-502(b) 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 the Mortgagor (Debtor) and the Mortgagee (Secured
Party) are hereinbelow set forth. This Mortgage is to be filed for recording
with the appropriate recording offices of the county or counties where the
Premises are located. The Mortgagor is the record owner of the Premises.
     (i) To the extent permitted by applicable law, the security interest
created hereby is specifically intended to cover all Leases between the
Mortgagor or its agents as lessor, and various tenants named therein, as lessee,
including all extended terms and all extensions and renewals of the terms
thereof, as well as any amendments to or replacement of said Leases, together
with all of the right, title and interest of the Mortgagor, as lessor
thereunder.
     (j) The Mortgagor represents and warrants that: (i) the Mortgagor is the
record owner of the Premises; (ii) the Mortgagor’s chief executive office is
located in the State of Minnesota; (iii) the Mortgagor’s state of formation is
the State of Delaware; (iv) the Mortgagor’s exact legal name is as set forth on
Page 1 of this Mortgage; and (v) the Mortgagor’s organizational identification
number is 2922261.
     (k) The Mortgagor hereby agrees that: (i) where Collateral is in possession
of a third party, the Mortgagor will join with the Mortgagee in notifying the
third party of the Mortgagee’s interest and obtaining an acknowledgment from the
third party that it is holding the Collateral for the benefit of the Mortgagee;
(ii) the Mortgagor will cooperate with the Mortgagee in obtaining control with
respect to Collateral consisting of: deposit accounts, investment property,
letter of credit rights and electronic chattel paper; and (iii) until the
Indebtedness is paid in full, Mortgagor will not change the state where it is
located or change its name or form of organization without giving the Mortgagee
at least thirty (30) days prior written notice in each instance.

14.   Restrictions on Transfer.

     (a) The Mortgagor, without the prior written consent of the Mortgagee
(which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), shall not effect,
suffer or permit any Prohibited Transfer (as defined herein). Any conveyance,
sale, assignment, transfer, lien, pledge, mortgage, security interest or other
encumbrance or alienation (or any agreement to do any of the foregoing) of any
of the following properties or interests shall constitute a “Prohibited
Transfer”:

16

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

     (i) The Premises or any part thereof or interest therein, excepting only
sales or other dispositions of Collateral (“Obsolete Collateral”) no longer
useful or necessary in connection with the operation of the Premises, provided
that prior to the sale or other disposition thereof, such Obsolete Collateral
has been replaced by Collateral of at least equal value and utility which is
subject to the lien hereof with the same priority as with respect to the
Obsolete Collateral unless such Obsolete Collateral is no longer needed in
connection with the operation of the Premises; or
     (ii) If there shall be any Change of Control (as defined in the Credit
Agreement);
in each case whether any such conveyance, sale, assignment, transfer, lien,
pledge, mortgage, security interest, encumbrance or alienation is effected
directly, indirectly (including the nominee agreement), voluntarily or
involuntarily, by operation of law or otherwise; provided, however, that the
foregoing provisions of this section shall not apply (i) to liens securing the
Indebtedness, (ii) to the lien of current taxes and assessments not in default,
(iii) to any transfers of the Premises, or part thereof, or interest therein, or
any beneficial interests, or shares of stock or partnership or joint venture
interests, as the case may be, by or on behalf of an owner thereof who is
deceased or declared judicially incompetent, to such owner’s heirs, legatees,
devisees, executors, administrators, estate or personal representatives, or
(iv) to leases permitted by the terms of the Loan Documents, if any.
     (b) In determining whether or not to make the Loan, the Mortgagee evaluated
the background and experience of the Mortgagor and its directors, officers and
equity holders in owning and operating property such as the Premises, found it
acceptable and relied and continues to rely upon same as the means of
maintaining the value of the Premises which is the Mortgagee’s security for the
Notes. The Mortgagor and its directors, officers and equity holders are well
experienced in borrowing money and owning and operating property such as the
Premises, were ably represented by a licensed attorney at law in the negotiation
and documentation of the Loan and bargained at arm’s length and without duress
of any kind for all of the terms and conditions of the Loan, including this
provision. The Mortgagor recognizes that the Mortgagee is entitled to keep its
loan portfolio at current interest rates by either making new loans at such
rates or collecting assumption fees and/or increasing the interest rate on a
loan, the security for which is purchased by a party other than the original
Mortgagor. The Mortgagor further recognizes that any secondary junior financing
placed upon the Premises (i) may divert funds which would otherwise be used to
pay the Notes; (ii) could result in acceleration and foreclosure by any such
junior encumbrancer which would force the Mortgagee to take measures and incur
expenses to protect its security; (iii) would detract from the value of the
Premises should the Mortgagee come into possession thereof with the intention of
selling same; and (iv) would impair the Mortgagee’s right to accept a deed in
lieu of foreclosure, as a foreclosure by the Mortgagee would be necessary to
clear the title to the Premises. In accordance with the foregoing and for the
purposes of (a) protecting the Mortgagee’s security, both of repayment and of
value of the Premises; (b) giving the Mortgagee the full benefit of its bargain
and contract

17

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

with the Mortgagor; (c) allowing the Mortgagee to raise the interest rate and
collect assumption fees; and (d) keeping the Premises free of subordinate
financing liens, the Mortgagor agrees that if this section is deemed a restraint
on alienation, that it is a reasonable one.

15.   Events of Default; Acceleration.

     Each of the following shall constitute an “Event of Default” for purposes
of this Mortgage:
     (a) The Mortgagor fails to pay (i) any installment of principal payable
pursuant to the terms of the Notes, or (ii) any other amount payable to
Mortgagee under the Notes, including, without limitation, interest payable
pursuant to the terms of the Notes, this Mortgage or any of the other Loan
Documents when any such payment is due in accordance with the terms hereof or
thereof;
     (b) The Mortgagor fails to perform or cause to be performed any other
obligation or observe any other condition, covenant, term, agreement or
provision required to be performed or observed by the Mortgagor under the Notes,
this Mortgage or any of the other Loan Documents; provided, however, that if
such failure by its nature can be cured, then so long as the continued operation
and safety of the Premises, and the priority, validity and enforceability of the
liens created by the Mortgage or any of the other Loan Documents and the value
of the Premises are not impaired, threatened or jeopardized, then the Mortgagor
shall have a period (the “Cure Period”) of thirty (30) days after the Mortgagor
receives written notice of such failure to cure the same and an Event of Default
shall not be deemed to exist during the Cure Period, provided further that if
the Mortgagor commences to cure such failure during the Cure Period and is
diligently and in good faith attempting to effect such cure, the Cure Period
shall be extended for thirty (30) additional days, but in no event shall the
Cure Period be longer than sixty (60) days in the aggregate;
     (c) the existence of any inaccuracy or untruth in any material respect in
any certification, representation or warranty contained in this Mortgage or any
of the other Loan Documents or of any statement or certification as to facts
delivered to the Mortgagee by the Mortgagor;
     (d) The Mortgagor files a voluntary petition in bankruptcy or is
adjudicated a bankrupt or insolvent or files any petition or answer seeking any
reorganization, arrangement, composition, readjustment, liquidation, dissolution
or similar relief under the present or any future federal, state, or other
statute or law, or seeks or consents to or acquiesces in the appointment of any
trustee, receiver or similar officer of the Mortgagor or of all or any
substantial part of the property of the Mortgagor, the Premises or all or a
substantial part of the assets of the Mortgagor are attached, seized, subjected
to a writ or distress warrant or are levied upon unless the same is released or
located within sixty (60) days;

18

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

     (e) the commencement of any involuntary petition in bankruptcy against the
Mortgagor, or the institution against the Mortgagor of any reorganization,
arrangement, composition, readjustment, dissolution, liquidation or similar
proceedings under any present or future federal, state or other statute or law,
or the appointment of a receiver, trustee or similar officer for all or any
substantial part of the property of the Mortgagor or any of the other Borrower
that shall remain undismissed or undischarged for a period of sixty (60) days;
     (f) the occurrence of a Prohibited Transfer;
     (g) the occurrence of an Event of Default under the Notes, the Credit
Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents; or
     (h) the occurrence of any default or event of default, after the expiration
of any applicable periods of notice or cure, under any document or agreement
evidencing or securing any other obligation or indebtedness of the Mortgagor
and/or the Guarantor to the Mortgagee.
If an Event of Default occurs, the Mortgagee may, at its option, declare the
whole of the Indebtedness to be immediately due and payable without further
notice to the Mortgagor, with interest thereon accruing from the date of such
Event of Default until paid at the Default Rate.

16.   Foreclosure; Expense of Litigation.

     (a) When all or any part of the Indebtedness shall become due, whether by
acceleration or otherwise, the Mortgagee shall have the right to foreclose the
lien hereof for such Indebtedness or part thereof and/or exercise any right,
power or remedy provided in this Mortgage or any of the other Loan Documents in
accordance with applicable law. In the event of a foreclosure sale, the
Mortgagee is hereby authorized, without the consent of the Mortgagor, to assign
any and all insurance policies to the purchaser at such sale or to take such
other steps as the Mortgagee may deem advisable to cause the interest of such
purchaser to be protected by any of such insurance policies.
     (b) In any suit to foreclose the lien hereof, there shall be allowed and
included as additional indebtedness in the decree for sale all expenditures and
expenses which may be paid or incurred by or on behalf of the Mortgagee for
reasonable attorneys’ fees, appraisers’ fees, outlays for documentary and expert
evidence, stenographers’ charges, publication costs, and costs (which may be
estimated as to items to be expended after entry of the decree) of procuring all
such abstracts of title, title searches and examinations, title insurance
policies, and similar data and assurances with respect to the title as the
Mortgagee may deem reasonably necessary either to prosecute such suit or to
evidence to bidders at any sale which may be had pursuant to such decree the
true condition of the title to or the value of the Premises. All expenditures
and expenses of the nature mentioned in this section and such other expenses and
fees as may be incurred in the enforcement of the Mortgagor’s obligations
hereunder, the protection of said Premises and the maintenance of the lien of
this Mortgage, including the reasonable fees of any attorney employed by the
Mortgagee in any litigation or proceeding affecting this Mortgage, the

19

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

Notes, or the Premises, including probate and bankruptcy proceedings, or in
preparations for the commencement or defense of any proceeding or threatened
suit or proceeding shall be immediately due and payable by the Mortgagor, with
interest thereon until paid at the Default Rate and shall be secured by this
Mortgage.

17.   Application of Proceeds of Foreclosure Sale.

     The proceeds of any foreclosure sale of the Premises shall be distributed
and applied in such order as the Mortgagee may determine in its sole and
absolute discretion.

18.   Appointment of Receiver.

     Upon or at any time after the occurrence of an Event of Default and the
filing of a complaint to foreclose this Mortgage, the court in which such
complaint is filed shall, upon petition by the Mortgagee, appoint a receiver for
the Premises in accordance with applicable law. Such appointment may be made
either before or after sale, without notice, without regard to the solvency or
insolvency of the Mortgagor at the time of application for such receiver and
without regard to the value of the Premises or whether the same shall be then
occupied as a homestead or not and the Mortgagee hereunder or any other holder
of the Notes may be appointed as such receiver. Such receiver shall have power
to collect the rents, issues and profits of the Premises (i) during the pendency
of such foreclosure suit, (ii) in case of a sale and a deficiency, during the
full statutory period of redemption, whether there be redemption or not, and
(iii) during any further times when the Mortgagor, but for the intervention of
such receiver, would be entitled to collect such rents, issues and profits. Such
receiver also shall have all other powers and rights that may be necessary or
are usual in such cases for the protection, possession, control, management and
operation of the Premises during said period, including, to the extent permitted
by law, the right to lease all or any portion of the Premises for a term that
extends beyond the time of such receiver’s possession without obtaining prior
court approval of such lease. The court from time to time may authorize the
application of the net income received by the receiver in payment of (a) the
Indebtedness, or by any decree foreclosing this Mortgage, or any tax, special
assessment or other lien which may be or become superior to the lien hereof or
of such decree, provided such application is made prior to foreclosure sale, and
(b) any deficiency upon a sale and deficiency.

19.   Mortgagee’s Right of Possession in Case of Default.

     At any time after an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the
Mortgagor shall, upon demand of the Mortgagee, surrender to the Mortgagee
possession of the Premises. The Mortgagee, in its discretion, may, with process
of law, enter upon and take and maintain possession of all or any part of the
Premises, together with all documents, books, records, papers and accounts
relating thereto, and may exclude the Mortgagor and its employees, agents or
servants therefrom, and the Mortgagee may then hold, operate, manage and control
the Premises, either personally or by its agents. The Mortgagee shall have 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 avails,
rents, issues, and profits of the Premises, including actions for the recovery
of rent, actions in forcible detainer and actions in distress for rent. At any
time after an

20

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

Event of Default has occurred, either with or without taking possession of the
Premises, and to the extent permitted by applicable law, the Mortgagee may
demand, sue for, settle, compromise, collect and give acquittances for all
rents, issues, income and profits of and from the Premises and pursue all
remedies for enforcement of the Leases and all the lessor’s rights therein and
thereunder; provided, however, that so long as no Event of Default has occurred,
the Mortgagor shall have a license to collect and receive all rents, issues,
income and profits of and from the Premises. This Mortgage shall constitute an
absolute and present transfer and assignment of the Leases, and further an
authorization and direction to the tenants under the Leases to pay all rents and
other amounts payable under the Leases to the Mortgagee, without proof of
default hereunder, upon receipt from the Mortgagee of written notice to
thereafter pay all such rents and other amounts to the Mortgagee and to comply
with any notice or demand by the Mortgagee for observance or performance of any
of the covenants, terms, conditions and agreements contained in the Leases to be
observed or performed by the tenants thereunder, and the Mortgagor shall
facilitate in all reasonable ways the Mortgagee’s collection of such rents,

purchaser or purchasers at a foreclosure sale, it being understood and agreed
that any such leases, and the options or other such provisions to be contained
therein, shall be binding upon the Mortgagor and all persons whose interests in
the Premises are subject to the lien hereof and upon the purchaser or purchasers
at any foreclosure sale, notwithstanding any redemption from sale, discharge of
the Indebtedness, satisfaction of any foreclosure judgment, or issuance of any

otherwise so existing may be exercised from time to time as often and in such
order as may be deemed expedient by the Mortgagee, and the exercise or the
beginning of the exercise of one right, power or remedy shall not be a waiver of
the right to exercise at the same time or thereafter any other right, power or
remedy, and no delay or omission of the Mortgagee in the exercise of any right,
power or remedy accruing hereunder or arising otherwise shall impair any such
right, power or remedy, or be construed to be a waiver of any Event of Default

exercise any rights under any statute now or hereafter in force to redeem the
property so sold, or any part thereof, or relating to the marshalling thereof,
upon foreclosure sale or other enforcement hereof; and without limiting the
foregoing:

reinstatement and redemption, if any, under any order or decree of foreclosure
of this Mortgage, on its own behalf and on behalf of each and every person, it
being the intent hereof that any and all such rights of reinstatement and
redemption of the Mortgagor and of all other persons are and shall be deemed to

     (b) The Mortgagor will not invoke or utilize any such law or laws or
otherwise hinder, delay or impede the execution of any right, power remedy
herein or otherwise granted or delegated to the Mortgagee but will suffer and

or laws had been made or enacted.

27.   Contests.

     (b) The Mortgagor shall either pay under protest or deposit with the
Mortgagee the full amount (the “Lien Amount”) of such Contested Lien, together

indemnity in such amount and form, and issued by a bond or title insuring
company, as may be satisfactory to the Mortgagee;
     (c) The Mortgagor shall diligently prosecute the contest of any Contested
Lien by appropriate legal proceedings having the effect of staying the
foreclosure or forfeiture of the Premises, and shall permit the Mortgagee to be
represented in any such contest and shall pay all expenses incurred, in so
doing, including fees and expenses of the Mortgagee’s counsel (all of which
shall constitute so much additional Indebtedness bearing interest at the Default
Rate until paid, and payable upon demand);

24

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

     (d) The Mortgagor shall pay each such Contested Lien and all Lien Amounts
together with interest and penalties thereon (i) if and to the extent that any
such Contested Lien shall be determined adverse to the Mortgagor, or
(ii) forthwith upon demand by the Mortgagee if, in the reasonable opinion of the
Mortgagee, and notwithstanding any such contest, the Premises shall be in
jeopardy or in danger of being forfeited or foreclosed; provided that if the
Mortgagor shall fail so to do, the Mortgagee may, but shall not be required to,
pay all such Contested Liens and Lien Amounts and interest and penalties thereon
and such other sums as may be necessary in the judgment of the Mortgagee to
obtain the release and discharge of such liens; and any amount expended by the
Mortgagee in so doing shall be so much additional Indebtedness bearing interest

30.   Further Instruments.

     Upon request of the Mortgagee, the Mortgagor shall execute, acknowledge and
deliver all such additional instruments and further assurances of title and

securing or otherwise affecting the Indebtedness, including, without limitation,
any and all amounts expended by the Mortgagee to operate, manage or maintain the
Premises or to otherwise protect the Premises or the lien of this Mortgage.

32.   Limitation of the Mortgagee’s Liability.

resulting from the Mortgagee’s failure to let the Premises or from any other act
or omission of the Mortgagee in managing, operating or maintaining the Premises
following the occurrence of an Event of Default. The Mortgagee shall not be
obligated to observe, perform or discharge, nor does the

26

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

Mortgagee hereby undertake to observe, perform or discharge any covenant, term,
condition or agreement contained in any Lease to be observed or performed by the
landlord thereunder, or any obligation, duty or liability of the Mortgagor under
or by reason of this Mortgage. This Mortgage shall not operate to place
responsibility upon the Mortgagee for the care, control, management or repair of
the Premises or for the carrying out of any of the covenants, terms, conditions
and agreements contained in any Lease, nor shall it operate to make the
Mortgagee responsible or liable for any waste committed upon the Premises by any
tenant, occupant or other party, or for any dangerous or defective condition of
the Premises, or for any negligence in the management, upkeep, repair or control
of the Premises resulting in loss or injury or death to any tenant, occupant,
licensee, employee or stranger. Nothing set forth in this Mortgage, and no
exercise by the Mortgagee of any of the rights set forth in this Mortgage, shall
constitute or be construed as constituting the Mortgagee a “mortgagee in
possession” of the Premises, in the absence of the taking of actual possession
of the Premises by the Mortgagee pursuant to the provisions hereof.

33.   Indemnity.

     The Mortgagor hereby covenants and agrees that no liability shall be
asserted or enforced against the Mortgagee in the exercise of the rights and
powers granted to the Mortgagee in this Mortgage, and the Mortgagor hereby
expressly waives and releases any such liability, except to the extent resulting
from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Mortgagee. The Mortgagor
shall indemnify and save the Mortgagee harmless from and against any and all
liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, claims, costs and expenses, including
reasonable attorneys’ fees and court costs (collectively, “Claims”), of whatever
kind or nature which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the
Mortgagee at any time by any third party which relate to or arise from: (a) any
suit or proceeding (including probate and bankruptcy proceedings), or the threat
thereof, in or to which the Mortgagee may or does become a party, either as
plaintiff or as a defendant, by reason of this Mortgage or for the purpose of
protecting the lien of this Mortgage; (b) the offer for sale or sale of all or
any portion of the Premises; and (c) the ownership, leasing, use, operation or
maintenance of the Premises, if such Claims relate to or arise from actions
taken prior to the surrender of possession of the Premises to the Mortgagee in
accordance with the terms of this Mortgage; provided, however, that the
Mortgagor shall not be obligated to indemnify or hold the Mortgagee harmless
from and against any Claims directly arising from the gross negligence or
willful misconduct of the Mortgagee. All costs provided for herein and paid for
by the Mortgagee shall be so much additional Indebtedness and shall become
immediately due and payable upon demand by the Mortgagee and with interest
thereon from the date incurred by the Mortgagee until paid at the Default Rate.

34.   Subordination of Property Manager’s Lien.

     Any property management agreement for the Premises entered into hereafter
with a property manager shall contain a provision whereby the property manager
agrees that any and all mechanics’ lien rights that the property manager or
anyone claiming by, through or under the property manager may have in the
Premises shall be subject and subordinate to the lien of this Mortgage and shall
provide that the Mortgagee may terminate such agreement, without penalty or
cost, at any time after the occurrence of an Event of Default hereunder. Such
property

27

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

management agreement or a short form thereof, at the Mortgagee’s request, shall
be recorded with the Recorder of Deeds of the county where the Premises are
located. In addition, if the property management agreement in existence as of
the date hereof does not contain a subordination provision, the Mortgagor shall
cause the property manager under such agreement to enter into a subordination of
the management agreement with the Mortgagee, in recordable form, whereby such
property manager subordinates present and future lien rights and those of any
party claiming by, through or under such property manager to the lien of this
Mortgage.

35.   Compliance with Environmental Laws.

     Concurrently herewith the Mortgagor has executed and delivered to the
Mortgagee that certain Environmental Indemnity Agreement dated as of the date
hereof (the “Indemnity”) pursuant to which the Mortgagor has indemnified the
Mortgagee for environmental matters concerning the Premises, as more
particularly described therein. The provisions of the Indemnity are hereby
incorporated herein and this Mortgage shall secure the obligations of the
Mortgagor thereunder.

36.   Revolving Loan.

     This Mortgage is given to secure a revolving credit loan and shall secure
not only presently existing indebtedness under the Notes and the other Loan
Documents, but also future advances, whether such advances are obligatory or to
be made at the option of the Mortgagee, or otherwise, as are made within twenty
(20) years from the date hereof to the same extent as if such future advances
were made on the date of the execution of this Mortgage, although there may be
no advance made at the time of execution of this Mortgage and although there may
be no Indebtedness outstanding at the time any advance is made. The lien of this
Mortgage shall be valid as to all Indebtedness including future advances, from
the time of its filing for record in the recorder’s or registrar’s office of the
county in which the real estate is located. The total amount of Indebtedness may
increase or decrease from time to time, as provided in the Credit Agreement, and
any disbursements which the Mortgagee may make under this Mortgage, the Notes or
the Credit Agreement or any other document with respect hereto (e.g., for
payment of taxes, insurance premiums or other advances to protect the
Mortgagee’s liens and security interests, as permitted hereby) shall be
additional Indebtedness secured hereby. This Mortgage is intended to and shall
be valid and have priority over all subsequent liens and encumbrances, including
statutory liens, excepting solely taxes and assessments levied on the real
estate, to the extent of the maximum amount secured hereby.

37.   Remedies Against Other Collateral.

     The Mortgagor hereby acknowledges that certain Loan Documents other than
this Mortgage create liens on collateral located in counties or states other
than the counties and state in which the Premises are located. The Mortgagor
further acknowledges that this Mortgage and the other Loan Documents are
cross-defaulted and the Loan secured hereby is also secured by the other Loan
Documents. The Mortgagor agrees that the Mortgagee may proceed, at the same or
at different times, to foreclose any or all liens against such collateral (or
sell such collateral under power of sale) by any proceedings appropriate in the
county and state where such

28

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

collateral lies, and that no event of enforcement taking place in any county or
state pursuant to any of the Loan Documents shall preclude or bar enforcement in
any other county or state. Any foreclosure or other appropriate remedy brought
in any county or state in which collateral is located may be brought and
prosecuted as to any part of such collateral without regard to the fact that
foreclosure proceedings or other appropriate remedies have or have not been
instituted elsewhere on any other part of the collateral for the Loan.

38.   Additional Agreements.

     (a) Principles of Construction. In the event of any inconsistencies between
the terms and conditions of this Section 38 and the terms and conditions of this
Mortgage, the terms and conditions of this Section 38 shall control and be
binding.
     (b) Collateral Definition. The definition of “Collateral Property” shall
also include all portions of the Property that may not be deemed real property
or may not constitute a “fixture” (within the meaning of Minn. Stat. § 336.9-313
of the Uniform Commercial Code) and all replacements, substitutions, and
additions for and to the same, whether acquired now or in the future, and all
products and cash and non-cash proceeds thereof.

advanced for any other purpose authorized herein or the payment or performance
of other obligations of Borrower under the Notes, this Mortgage and the other
Loan Documents;
          (ii) any and all other charges and amounts payable under the Notes,
this Mortgage or the other Loan Documents, as are exempt from Minnesota mortgage
registry tax (the “Registry Tax”) under Minn. Stat. § 287.035 and under §
287.05, Subd. 4;
          (iii) any and all charges, amounts and non-monetary obligations under
the Notes, this Mortgage or the other Loan Documents, which are not otherwise
subject to Registry Tax;
          (iv) any and all charges and amounts payable under the Notes, this
Mortgage or the other Loan Documents on which the Registry Tax has been paid;
and
          (v) interest from time to time payable on any or all of the foregoing.
     (d) Minnesota Remedies. If an Event of Default exists, Mortgagee may, at
Mortgagee’s election, exercise any of the following rights, remedies and
recourses:

29

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

proceedings or by advertisement with full authority to sell the Property at
public auction and convey the same to the purchaser in fee simple, either in one
parcel or separate lots and parcels, all in accordance with and in the manner
prescribed by law, and out of the proceeds arising from sale and foreclosure to
retain the principal, prepayment fees, and interest due on the Notes, the
indebtedness secured hereby, together with all sums of money as Mortgagee shall
have expended or advanced pursuant to this Mortgage or pursuant to statute,
together with interest thereon as herein provided, and all costs and expenses of
such foreclosure, including lawful attorneys’ fees with the balance, if any, due
to paid to the person entitled thereto by law.
          (ii) Receiver. As a matter of right, without notice and without regard
to the solvency or insolvency of Mortgagor, or the existence of waste of the
Property or adequacy of the security of the Property, and without giving bond,
apply for the appointment of a receiver in accordance with the statutes and law
made and provided for who shall have all the rights, powers and remedies as
provided by such statute or law, including without limitation the rights of
receiver pursuant to Minn. Stat. Section 576.01, as amended, and who shall from
the date of its appointment through any period of redemption existing at law
collect the Rents, manage the Property so as to prevent waste, execute leases
within or beyond the period of receivership, pay all expenses for normal
maintenance of the Property, and perform the terms of this Mortgage and apply
the Rents to the payment of the expenses enumerated in Minn. Stat.
Section 576.01, Subd. 2 in the priority mentioned therein and to all expenses
for maintenance of the Property and to the costs and expenses of the
receivership, including attorneys’ fees, to the repayment of the indebtedness
secured hereby, whether contained in this Mortgage or in a separate instrument.
Mortgagor does hereby irrevocably consent to such appointment.
     (iii) UCC. Exercise all rights, remedies and recourse available to a
secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code (in addition to the rights
available to a mortgagee of real property), including the right to proceed under
the provisions of the Uniform Commercial Code governing default as to any
Collateral Property as defined in this Mortgage which may be included on the
Property or which may be deemed non-realty in a foreclosure of this Mortgage or
to proceed as to such Collateral Property in accordance with the procedures and
remedies available pursuant to a foreclosure of real estate.
     (e) Acknowledgment of Waiver of Hearing Before Sale. Mortgagor understands
and agrees that if an Event of Default shall occur, Mortgagee has the right,
inter alia, to foreclose this Mortgage by advertisement pursuant to Minn. Stat.
Chapter 580, as hereafter amended, or pursuant to any similar or replacement
statute hereafter enacted; that if Mortgagee elects to foreclose by
advertisement, it may cause the Property or any part thereof to be sold at
public action; that notice of such sale must be published for six (6) successive
weeks at least once a week in a newspaper of general circulation, and that no
personal notice is required to be served upon Mortgagor. Mortgagor further
understands that upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Mortgagee may also
elect

30

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

its rights under the Uniform Commercial Code and take possession of the non-real
estate items of the Property and dispose of the same by sale or otherwise in one
or more parcels, provided that at least ten (10) days’ prior notice of such
disposition must be given, all as provided for by the Uniform Commercial Code,
as hereinafter amended or by any similar or replacement statute hereafter
enacted. Mortgagor further understands that under the Constitution of the United
States and the Constitution of the State of Minnesota it may have the right to
notice and hearing before the Property may be sold and that the procedure for
foreclosure by advertisement described above does not insure that notice will be
given to Mortgagor and neither said procedure for foreclosure by advertisement
nor the Uniform Commercial Code requires any hearing or other judicial
proceeding. MORTGAGOR HEREBY EXPRESSLY CONSENTS AND AGREES THAT THE PROPERTY MAY
BE FORECLOSED BY ADVERTISEMENT AND THAT THE COLLATERAL PROPERTY MAY BE DISPOSED
OF PURSUANT TO THE UNIFORM COMMERCIAL CODE, ALL AS DESCRIBED ABOVE. MORTGAGOR
ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT IS REPRESENTED BY LEGAL COUNSEL; THAT BEFORE SIGNING THIS
DOCUMENT THIS SECTION AND MORTGAGOR’S CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS WERE FULLY EXPLAINED
BY SUCH COUNSEL AND THAT MORTGAGOR UNDERSTANDS THE NATURE AND EXTENT OF THE
RIGHTS WAIVED HEREBY AND THE EFFECT OF SUCH WAIVER.
     (f) Waiver of Redemption, Notice and Marshalling of Assets. To the fullest
extent permitted by law, Mortgagor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives
and releases (a) all benefit that might accrue to Mortgagor by virtue of any
present or future statute of limitations or law or judicial decision exempting
the Property from attachment, levy or sale on execution or providing for any
stay of execution, exemption from civil process, redemption or extension of time
for payment, (b) all notices of any Event of Default or of any election by
Mortgagee to exercise or the actual exercise of any right, remedy or recourse
provided for under any of the documents evidencing the Loan and/or indebtedness
secured hereby, (c) any right to a marshalling of assets or a sale in inverse
order of alienation, (d) any appraisal before a sale of any portion of the
Property, and (e) any extension of time for the enforcement and collection of
the Notes, the indebtedness secured hereby, or creating or extending a period of
redemption from any sale made in collecting said debt. To the full extent
Mortgagor may do so, Mortgagor agrees that the Mortgagor will not at any time
insist upon, plead, claim or take the benefit or advantage of any law now or
hereafter enforced providing for any appraisal, evaluation, stay, extension or
redemption, and Mortgagor, to the extent permitted by law, waives and releases
all rights of redemption, valuation, appraisal, stay of execution or notice of
election to mature or declare due the whole of this Mortgage.
     (g) Leases and Rents. It is the intention of Mortgagor to establish a
present, absolute and irrevocable transfer and assignment to Mortgagee of all
Rents and of all of Mortgagor’s right, title and interest in, to and under the
Leases, and Mortgagor does hereby appoint irrevocably Mortgagee as Mortgagor’s
true and lawful attorney in Mortgagor’s name and stead, which appointment is
coupled with an interest, to collect all said Rents, subject however, to a
revocable license hereby granted by Mortgagee to Mortgagor to collect and
receive all of the Rents, to hold all Rents in trust for the benefit

31

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

of Mortgagee and to apply all Rents to pay the installments of interest and
principal then due and payable under the Notes and the other amounts then due
and payable under the other documents evidencing the Loan and/or indebtedness
secured hereby, and to pay the current costs and expenses of managing, operating
and maintaining the Property, including utilities, taxes and insurance premiums,
tenant improvements and other capital expenditures and to exercise all rights,
power and authority granted to Mortgagee under the Leases (such license
evidenced by Mortgagee’s acceptance of this Mortgage), subject to the terms and
conditions hereof.
          (i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any of the
documents evidencing the Loan to the contrary, the assignment in this Section 38
is an absolute, unconditional and presently effective assignment and not an
assignment for additional security only; provided, however, upon the occurrence
of any Event of Default, Mortgagor’s revocable license to collect the Rents set
forth above and to exercise all rights, power and authority under the Leases as
set forth in this Mortgage shall immediately cease and terminate. Upon or at any
time during the continuance of an Event of Default, including but not limited to
failure of the Mortgagor to pay any of the items set forth below, or if any
material representation or warranty herein proves to be untrue, then the
Mortgagee, without regard to waste, adequacy of the security or solvency of the
Mortgagor, may declare all indebtedness secured hereby immediately due and
payable and may, at its option, without notice:
          (A) in person or by agent, with or without taking possession of or
entering the Property, with or without any action or proceeding, give or require
Mortgagor to give, notice to any or all tenants under any lease authorizing and
directing the tenant to pay such Rents and profits to Mortgagee; collect all of
the Rents and profits; enforce the payment thereof and exercise all of the
rights of the landlord under the leases and all of the rights of Mortgagee
hereunder, may enter upon, take possession of, manage and operate said Property,
or any part thereof; may cancel, enforce or modify the leases, and fix or modify
rents, and do any acts which Mortgagee deems proper to protect the security
hereof with or without taking possession of the Property; and/or
          (B) apply for the appointment of a receiver in accordance with the
statutes and law made and provided for, which receivership Mortgagor hereby
consents to, who shall collect the Rents and profits, and all other income of
any kind; manage the Property so to prevent waste; execute leases within or
beyond the period of receivership, and perform the terms of this Mortgage and
apply the Rents and profits as hereinafter provided.
          (ii) The entering upon and taking possession of the Property, the
appointment of a receiver, the collection of such Rents and profits and the
application thereof as aforesaid shall not cure or waive any Event of Default
under this Mortgage nor in any way operate to prevent Mortgagee from pursuing
any other remedy which it may now or hereafter have under the terms of this
Mortgage nor shall it in any way be deemed to constitute Mortgagee a
mortgagee-in-possession. The rights and powers of Mortgagee

32

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

hereunder shall remain in full force and effect both prior to and after any
foreclosure of the Mortgage and any sale pursuant thereto and until expiration
of the period of redemption from said sale, regardless of whether a deficiency
remains from said sale. The purchaser at any foreclosure sale, including
Mortgagee, shall have the right, at any time and without limitation as provided
in Minn. Stat. § 582.03, to advance money to any receiver appointed hereunder to
pay any part or all of the items which the receiver would otherwise be
authorized to pay if cash were available from the Property and the sum so
advanced, with interest as the rate then in effect under the terms of the Notes,
shall be a part of the sum required to be paid to redeem from any foreclosure
sale. The rights hereunder shall in no way be dependent upon and shall apply
without regard to whether the Property is in danger of being lost, materially
injured or damaged or whether the Property is adequate to discharge the
Indebtedness.
          (iii) Any Rents collected pursuant to the terms of this Section as
described above shall be applied in the following order: (a) to payment of all
fees of any receiver appointed hereunder; (b) to application of tenant’s
security deposits as required by Minn. Stat. § 504B.178; (c) to payment when due
of prior or current real estate taxes or special assessments with respect to the
Property or, if this Mortgage so requires, to the periodic escrow for payment of
taxes or special assessments then due; (d) to payment when due of insurance
premiums of the type required by this Mortgage or, if this Mortgage so required,
to the periodic escrow for the payment of insurance premiums then due; and
(e) to payment of all expenses for normal maintenance of the Property. Any Rents
remaining after application of the above item shall be applied to the
Indebtedness on a monthly basis. If the Property shall be foreclosed and sold
pursuant to a foreclosure sale, then:
          (A) if Mortgagee is the purchaser at the foreclosure sale, the Rents
shall be paid to Mortgagee to be applied to the extent of any deficiency
remaining after the sale, the balance to be retained by Mortgagee, and if the
Property be redeemed by Mortgagor or any other party entitled to redeem, to be
applied as a credit against the redemption price with any remaining excess rents
to be paid to Mortgagor, provided, if the Property not be redeemed, any
remaining excess rents to belong to Mortgagee, whether or not a deficiency
exists.
          (B) if Mortgagee is not the purchaser at the foreclosure sale, the
Rents shall be paid to Mortgagee to be applied first, to the extent of any
deficiency remaining after the sale, the balance to be retained by the
purchaser, and if the Property be redeemed by Mortgagor or any other party
entitled to redeem, to be applied as a credit against the redemption price with
any remaining excess rents to be paid to Mortgagor, provided, if the Property
not be redeemed any remaining excess rents shall be paid first, to the purchaser
at the foreclosure sale in an amount equal to the interest accrued upon the sale
price pursuant to Minn. Stat. §§ 580.23 or 581.10, then to Mortgagee to the
extent of any deficiency remaining unpaid and the remainder to the purchaser.

33

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Mortgage, this
assignment shall not reduce the indebtedness secured hereby except to the extent
that rents, income, receipts, revenues, issues, profits, and proceeds from the
Property are actually received by Mortgagee and applied to the indebtedness
secured hereby. The rights and powers of Mortgagee and receivers under this
Mortgage and the application of Rents under this Section shall continue until
expiration of the redemption period from any foreclosure sale, whether or not
any deficiency remains after a foreclosure sale.
     (h) Fixture Filing. As to those items of Property described in this
Mortgage that are, or are to become fixtures related to the real estate
mortgaged herein, and all products and proceeds thereof, it is intended as to
those items that THIS MORTGAGE SHALL BE EFFECTIVE AS A FINANCING STATEMENT FILED
AS A FIXTURE FILING from the date of its filing in the real estate records of
the County where the Land is situated. The name of the record owner of said real
estate is Mortgagor set forth in Page 1 to this Mortgage. Information concerning
the security interest created by this instrument may be obtained from Mortgagee,
as secured party, at its address as set forth in Page 1 of this Mortgage. The
address of Mortgagor, as debtor, is as set forth in Page 1 to this Mortgage.
This document covers goods which are or are to become fixtures. Mortgagor is a
limited liability company organized under the laws of the State of Delaware.
Mortgagor’s organizational identification number is set forth in Section 13(j)
hereof.
     (i) Business Loan/Non-Agricultural Use. Mortgagor represents and warrants
to Mortgagee that the loan evidenced by the Notes is a business loan transacted
solely for the purpose of carrying on the business of Mortgagor and the Property
does not constitute the homestead of Mortgagor. Mortgagor represents and
warrants that as of the date of this Mortgage the Property is not in
agricultural use as defined in Minn. Stat. § 40A.02. Subd. 3 and is not used for
agricultural purposes.
     (j) Future Advances. To the extent that this Mortgage is deemed to secure
future advances including, but not limited to, interest as provided in the
Credit Agreement, the amount of such advances is not currently known. The
delivery and acceptance of this Mortgage by Mortgagor and Mortgagee, however,
constitutes an acknowledgment that Mortgagor and Mortgagee are aware of the
provisions of Minn. Stat. § 287.05. Subd. 5, and intend to comply with the
requirements contained therein. The maximum principal amount of indebtedness
secured by this Mortgage at any one time, excluding any amounts constituting an
“indeterminate amount” under Minn. Stat. § 287.05. Subd. 5, and excluding
advances made by the Mortgagee in protection of the Mortgaged Property or the
lien of this Mortgage, shall be Twenty Eight Million Dollars ($28,000,000). The
representations contained in this Section are made solely for the benefit of
county recording authorities in determining the mortgage registry tax payable as
a prerequisite to the recording of this Mortgage. Mortgagor acknowledges that
such representations do not constitute or imply an agreement by Mortgagee to
make any future advances to Mortgagor.

34

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

     (k) Revolving Line of Credit. This Mortgage shall constitute a Mortgage
securing a revolving line of credit under which advances, payments and
readvances may be made from time to time. The recording of this Mortgage shall
serve as notice to parties as to all advances and readvances secured hereby
regardless of the time or amounts of advances, payments or readvances and
whether or not the advances or readvances are obligatory.
     (l) No Effect on Other Instruments. Nothing in this Mortgage and no
foreclosure or enforcement of this Mortgage in any state shall limit or impair
any other mortgages, deeds of trusts or other instrument (collectively, “Other
Mortgages”), or any liens, rights or remedies under or the provisions of any of
the Other Mortgages, notwithstanding that this Mortgage and the Other Mortgages
may encumber the same property, and this Mortgage and the Other Mortgages may be
separately foreclosed or otherwise enforced concurrently or in any order of
priority. For purposes of exercising rights and remedies, including but not
limited to foreclosure in a state, all references herein to Mortgaged Property
or any component thereof shall be to the Mortgaged Property or component thereof
in that state.

39.   Miscellaneous.

     (a) Successors and Assigns. This Mortgage and all provisions hereof shall
be binding upon and enforceable against the Mortgagor and its assigns and other
successors. This Mortgage and all provisions hereof shall inure to the benefit
of the Mortgagee, its successors and assigns and any holder or holders, from
time to time, of the Notes.
     (b) Invalidity of Provisions; Governing Law. In the event that any
provision of this Mortgage is deemed to be invalid by reason of the operation of
law, or by reason of the interpretation placed thereon by any administrative
agency or any court, the Mortgagor and the Mortgagee shall negotiate an
equitable adjustment in the provisions of the same in order to effect, to the
maximum extent permitted by law, the purpose of this Mortgage and the validity
and enforceability of the remaining provisions, or portions or applications
thereof, shall not be affected thereby and shall remain in full force and
effect. This Mortgage is to be construed in accordance with and governed by the
laws of the State in which the Real Estate is located.
     (c) Municipal Requirements. The Mortgagor shall not by act or omission
permit any building or other improvement on premises not subject to the lien of
this Mortgage to rely on the Premises or any part thereof or any interest
therein to fulfill any municipal or governmental requirement, and the Mortgagor
hereby assigns to the Mortgagee any and all rights to give consent for all or
any portion of the Premises or any interest therein to be so used. Similarly, no
building or other improvement on the Premises shall rely on any premises not
subject to the lien of this Mortgage or any interest therein to fulfill any
governmental or municipal requirement. Any act or omission by the Mortgagor
which would result in a violation of any of the provisions of this subsection
shall be void.
     (d) Rights of Tenants. The Mortgagee shall have the right and option to
commence a civil action to foreclose this Mortgage and to obtain a decree of
foreclosure and sale subject to

35

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

the rights of any tenant or tenants of the Premises having an interest in the
Premises prior to that of the Mortgagee. The failure to join any such tenant or
tenants of the Premises as party defendant or defendants in any such civil
action or the failure of any decree of foreclosure and sale to foreclose their
rights shall not be asserted by the Mortgagor as a defense in any civil action
instituted to collect the Indebtedness, or any part thereof or any deficiency
remaining unpaid after foreclosure and sale of the Premises, any statute or rule
of law at any time existing to the contrary notwithstanding.
     (e) Option of Mortgagee to Subordinate. At the option of the Mortgagee,
this Mortgage shall become subject and subordinate, in whole or in part (but not
with respect to priority of entitlement to insurance proceeds or any
condemnation or eminent domain award) to any and all leases of all or any part
of the Premises upon the execution by the Mortgagee of a unilateral declaration
to that effect and the recording thereof in the Office of the Recorder of Deeds
in and for the county wherein the Premises are situated.
     (f) Mortgagee-in-Possession. Nothing herein contained shall be construed as
constituting the Mortgagee a mortgagee-in-possession in the absence of the
actual taking of possession of the Premises by the Mortgagee pursuant to this
Mortgage.
     (g) Relationship of Mortgagee and Mortgagor. The Mortgagee shall in no
event be construed for any purpose to be a partner, joint venturer, agent or
associate of the Mortgagor or of any lessee, operator, concessionaire or
licensee of the Mortgagor in the conduct of their respective businesses, and,
without limiting the foregoing, the Mortgagee shall not be deemed to be such
partner, joint venturer, agent or associate on account of the Mortgagee becoming
a mortgagee-in-possession or exercising any rights pursuant to this Mortgage,
any of the other Loan Documents, or otherwise. The relationship of the Mortgagor
and the Mortgagee hereunder is solely that of debtor/creditor.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

     (h) Time of the Essence. Time is of the essence of the payment by the
Mortgagor of all amounts due and owing to the Mortgagee under the Notes and the
other Loan Documents and the performance and observance by the Mortgagor of all
terms, conditions, obligations and agreements contained in this Mortgage and the
other Loan Documents.
     (i) No Merger. The parties hereto intend that the Mortgage and the lien
hereof shall not merge in fee simple title to the Premises, and if the Mortgagee
acquires any additional or other interest in or to the Premises or the ownership
thereof, then, unless a contrary intent is manifested by the Mortgagee as
evidenced by an express statement to that effect in an appropriate document duly
recorded, this Mortgage and the lien hereof shall not merge in the fee simple
title and this Mortgage may be foreclosed as if owned by a stranger to the fee
simple title.
     (j) Intentionally Deleted.
     (k) CONSENT TO JURISDICTION. TO INDUCE THE MORTGAGEE TO ACCEPT THE NOTES,
THE MORTGAGOR IRREVOCABLY AGREES THAT, SUBJECT TO THE MORTGAGEE’S SOLE AND
ABSOLUTE ELECTION, ALL ACTIONS OR PROCEEDINGS IN ANY WAY ARISING OUT OF OR
RELATED TO THE NOTES AND THIS MORTGAGE WILL BE LITIGATED IN COURTS HAVING SITUS
IN HENNEPIN COUNTY. MINNESOTA. THE MORTGAGOR HEREBY CONSENTS AND SUBMITS TO THE
JURISDICTION OF ANY COURT LOCATED WITHIN HENNEPIN COUNTY, MINNESOTA, WAIVES
PERSONAL SERVICE OF PROCESS UPON THE MORTGAGOR, AND AGREES THAT ALL SUCH SERVICE
OF PROCESS MAY BE MADE BY REGISTERED MAIL DIRECTED TO THE MORTGAGOR AT THE
ADDRESS STATED HEREIN AND SERVICE SO MADE WILL BE DEEMED TO BE COMPLETED UPON
ACTUAL RECEIPT.
THE BALANCE OF THIS PAGE IS INTENTIONALLY LEFT BLANK.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

     (l) WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE
MORTGAGOR AND THE MORTGAGEE (BY ACCEPTANCE HEREOF), HAVING BEEN REPRESENTED BY
COUNSEL EACH KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN
ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING TO ENFORCE OR DEFEND ANY RIGHTS (A) UNDER THIS MORTGAGE
OR ANY RELATED AGREEMENT OR UNDER ANY AMENDMENT, INSTRUMENT, DOCUMENT OR
AGREEMENT DELIVERED OR WHICH MAY IN THE FUTURE BE DELIVERED IN CONNECTION WITH
THIS MORTGAGE OR (B) ARISING FROM ANY BANKING RELATIONSHIP EXISTING IN
CONNECTION WITH THIS MORTGAGE, AND AGREES THAT ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING
WILL BE TRIED BEFORE A COURT AND NOT BEFORE A JURY. THE MORTGAGOR AGREES THAT IT
WILL NOT ASSERT ANY CLAIM AGAINST THE MORTGAGEE OR ANY OTHER PERSON INDEMNIFIED
UNDER THIS MORTGAGE ON ANY THEORY OF LIABILITY FOR SPECIAL, INDIRECT,
CONSEQUENTIAL, INCIDENTAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES.
     (m) Complete Agreement. This Mortgage, the Notes and the other Loan
Documents constitute the complete agreement between the parties with respect to
the subject matter hereof and the Loan Documents may not be modified, altered or
amended except by an agreement in writing signed by both the Mortgagor and the
Mortgagee.
