Mortgagor also ratifies its authorization for Mortgagee to have filed any like initial financing statements, amendments thereto and continuations thereof, if filed prior to the date of this Security Instrument.  Mortgagor hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints Mortgagee and any officer or agent of Mortgagee, with full power of substitution, as its true and lawful attorneys-in-fact with full irrevocable power and authority in the place and stead of Mortgagor or in Mortgagor’s own name to execute in Mortgagor’s name any such documents and otherwise to carry out the purposes of this Section 4.2, to the extent that Mortgagor’s authorization above is not sufficient and Mortgagor fails or refuses to promptly execute such documents.  To the extent permitted by Laws, Mortgagor hereby ratifies all  acts said attorneys-in-fact have lawfully done in the past or shall lawfully do or cause to be done in the future by virtue hereof.  This power of attorney is a power coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable until final payment and performance of the Obligations or the full and final release of this Security Instrument.
Section 4.3.    RECORDING OF SECURITY INSTRUMENT ETC.  Mortgagor, upon execution and delivery of this Security Instrument and thereafter, from time to time, will cause this Security Instrument and any of the other Loan Documents creating a Lien or evidencing the Lien hereof upon the Property and each instrument of further assurance to be filed, registered or recorded in such manner and in such places as may be required by any present or future Laws in order to publish notice of and fully to protect and perfect the Lien hereof upon, and the interest of Mortgagee in, the Property.  Mortgagor will pay all taxes, filing, registration or recording fees, and all expenses incident to the preparation, execution, acknowledgment and/or recording of this Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents, including any instrument of further assurance and any modification or amendment of the foregoing documents, and all federal state, county and municipal taxes, duties, imposts, assessments and charges arising out of or in connection with the execution and delivery of this Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents, including any instrument of further assurance and any modification or amendment of the foregoing documents, except where prohibited by Laws so to do.

(a)    Mortgagee may declare the Obligations to be immediately due and payable.

(i)    Mortgagee may institute proceedings, judicial or otherwise, for the complete foreclosure of this Security Instrument under any applicable provision of Laws, in which case the Property or any interest therein may be sold for cash or upon credit in one or more parcels or in several interests or portions and in any order or manner.
(ii)    Mortgagee may, with or without entry, to the extent permitted and pursuant to the procedures provided by applicable Laws, institute proceedings for the partial 

11






foreclosure of this Security Instrument, conducting the sale as herein provided, and without declaring the whole Obligations due, and provided that if sale is made because of default as hereinabove mentioned, such sale may be made subject to the unmatured part of the Notes and/or the Obligations secured hereby, and it is agreed that such sale, if so made, shall not in any manner affect any other Obligations secured hereby, but as to such other Obligations this Security Instrument and the Liens created hereby shall remain in full force and effect just as though no sale had been made under the provisions of this Section 8.1(b)(ii).  It is further agreed that several sales may be made hereunder without exhausting the right of sale for any remaining Obligations secured hereby, it being the purpose to provide for a foreclosure and sale of the Property for any matured portion of any of the Obligations secured hereby or other items provided for herein without exhausting the power to foreclose and to sell the Property for any remaining Obligations secured hereby, whether matured at the time or subsequently maturing.
(iii)    Mortgagee may sell the Property in whole or in part and in such parcels and order as Mortgagee may determine, and the right of sale hereunder shall not be exhausted by one or more sales, but successive sales may be had until all of the Property has been legally sold.
(iv)    Mortgagee and/ or one or more Lenders may become the purchaser at any such sale if it is the highest bidder, and shall have the right, after paying or accounting for all costs of said sale or sales, to credit the amount of the bid upon the amount of the Obligations owing, in lieu of cash payment.
(v)    It shall not be necessary for Mortgagee to have constructively in its possession any part of the real or personal property covered by this Security Instrument, and the title and right of possession of said property shall pass to the purchaser or purchasers at any sale hereunder as fully as if the same had been actually present and delivered.  Likewise, on foreclosure of this Security Instrument whether by power of sale herein contained or otherwise, Mortgagor or any person claiming any part of the Property by, through or under Mortgagor, shall not be entitled to a marshalling of assets or a sale in inverse order of alienation.
(vi)    The recitals and statements of fact contained in any notice or in any conveyance to the purchaser or purchasers at any sale hereunder shall be prima facie evidence of the truth of such facts, and all prerequisites and requirements necessary to the validity of any such sale shall be presumed to have been performed.
(vii)    To the extent permitted by applicable Laws, any sale under the powers granted by this Security Instrument shall be a perpetual bar against Mortgagor, its heirs, successors, assigns and legal representatives.
(viii)    Mortgagee may sell for cash or upon credit the Property or any part thereof and all estate, claim, demand, right, title and interest of Mortgagor therein and rights of redemption thereof, pursuant to power of sale or otherwise, at one or more sales, as an entirety or in parcels, at such time and place, upon such terms and after such notice thereof as may be required or permitted by applicable Laws.

12






(ix)    In the event of a sale, by foreclosure, power of sale or otherwise, of less than all of Property, this Security Instrument shall continue as a Lien and security interest on the remaining portion of the Property unimpaired and without loss of priority.
(c)    In the event any sale hereunder is not completed or is defective in the opinion of Mortgagee or the holder of any part of the Obligations, to the extent permitted by applicable Laws, such sale shall not exhaust the power of sale hereunder, and Mortgagee or such holder shall have the right to cause a subsequent sale or sales to be made by Mortgagee.
(d)    In the event of a foreclosure under the powers granted by this Security Instrument, Mortgagor and all other Persons in possession of any part of the Property shall be deemed tenants at will of the purchaser at such foreclosure sale and shall be liable for a reasonable rental for the use of the Property; and if any such tenants refuse to surrender possession of the Property upon demand, the purchaser shall be entitled to institute and maintain the statutory action of forcible entry and detainer and procure a writ of possession thereunder, and Mortgagor expressly waives all damages sustained by reason thereof.
(e)    Mortgagee may institute an action, suit or proceeding in equity for the specific performance of any covenant, condition or agreement contained herein or in the Notes, the Credit Agreement or in the other Loan Documents.
(f)    Mortgagee may recover judgment on the Notes either before, during or after any proceedings for the enforcement of this Security Instrument or the other Loan Documents.
(g)    Mortgagee may apply for and shall be entitled to the appointment of a receiver, trustee, liquidator or conservator of the Property, without notice and without regard for the adequacy of the security for the Obligations and without regard for the solvency of any Mortgagor, any Borrower or Guarantor or any other guarantor or indemnitor under the Loan or any other Person liable for the payment of the Obligations.
(h)    The license granted to Mortgagor under Section 1.2 hereof shall automatically be revoked and, to the extent permitted by applicable Laws, Mortgagee may enter into or upon the Property, either personally or by its agents, nominees or attorneys and dispossess Mortgagor and its agents and servants therefrom, without liability for trespass, damages or otherwise and exclude Mortgagor and its agents or servants wholly therefrom, and take possession of all books, records and accounts relating thereto and Mortgagor agrees to surrender possession of the Property and of such books, records and accounts to Mortgagee upon demand, and thereupon Mortgagee may (i) use, operate, manage, control, insure, maintain, repair, restore and otherwise deal with all and every part of the Property and conduct the business thereat; (ii) complete any construction on the Property in such manner and form as Mortgagee deems advisable; (iii) make alterations, additions, renewals, replacements and improvements to or on the Property; (iv) exercise all rights and powers of Mortgagor with respect to the Property, whether in the name of Mortgagor or otherwise, including, without limitation, the right to make, cancel, enforce or modify Leases, obtain and evict tenants, and demand, sue for, collect and receive all Rents of the Property and every part thereof; (v) require Mortgagor to pay monthly in advance to Mortgagee, or any receiver appointed to collect the Rents, the fair and reasonable rental value for the use and occupation of such part of the Property as may be occupied by Mortgagor; (vi) require Mortgagor to vacate and surrender possession of the Property to Mortgagee or to such receiver and, in default thereof, Mortgagor may be evicted by summary proceedings or otherwise; and (vii) apply the receipts from the Property to the payment of the 

13






Obligations, in such order, priority and proportions as Mortgagee shall deem appropriate in its sole discretion after deducting therefrom all expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred in connection with the aforesaid operations and all amounts necessary to pay the Taxes, Other Charges, insurance and other expenses in connection with the Property, as well as just and reasonable compensation for the services of Mortgagee and Lenders, and their respective counsel, agents and employees.  Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 8.1(h) hereof, no credit shall be given by Mortgagee for any sum or sums received from the rents, issues and profits of the Property until the money collected is actually received by Mortgagee at its principal office, or at such other place as Mortgagee shall designate in writing, and no such credit shall be given for any uncollected rents or other uncollected amounts or bills, nor shall such credit be given for any rents, issues and profits derived from the Property after foreclosure or other transfer of the Property (or part thereof from which rents, issues and/or profits are derived pursuant to the Security Instrument or by agreement) to Mortgagee or any other third party.  Receipt of rents, issues and/or profits by Mortgagee shall not be deemed to constitute a pro-tanto payment of the indebtedness evidenced by, or arising under, this Security Instrument, the Notes, the Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, but shall be applied as provided in Section 8.2.
(i)    To the extent permitted by applicable Laws, Mortgagee may exercise any and all rights and remedies granted to a secured party upon default under the Uniform Commercial Code, including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing: (i) the right to take possession of the Collateral (including, without limitation, the Personal Property) or any part thereof, and to take such other measures as Mortgagee may deem necessary for the care, protection and preservation of the Collateral (including, without limitation, the Personal Property); and (ii) request Mortgagor at its expense to assemble the Collateral (including, without limitation, the Personal Property) and make it available to Mortgagee at a convenient place acceptable to Mortgagee.  Any notice of sale, disposition or other intended action by Mortgagee with respect to the Collateral (including, without limitation, the Personal Property) sent to Mortgagor in accordance with the provisions hereof at least five (5) days prior to such action shall constitute commercially reasonable notice to Mortgagor.
(j)    Mortgagee may apply any sums then deposited or held in escrow or otherwise by or on behalf of Mortgagee in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement, this Security Instrument or any other Loan Document to the payment of the following items in any order in its sole discretion: (i) Taxes and Other Charges; (ii) insurance premiums; (iii) interest on the unpaid principal balance of the Notes; (iv) amortization of the unpaid principal balance of the Notes; (v) all other sums payable pursuant to the Notes, the Credit Agreement, this Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents, including without limitation advances made by Mortgagee or any Lender pursuant to the terms of this Security Instrument.
(k)    Mortgagee may surrender the insurance policies maintained pursuant to the Credit Agreement, collect the unearned insurance premiums for such insurance policies and apply such sums as a credit on the Obligations in such priority and proportion as Mortgagee in its discretion shall deem proper, and in connection therewith, Mortgagor hereby appoints Mortgagee as agent and attorney-in-fact (which is coupled with an interest and is therefore irrevocable) for Mortgagor to collect such insurance premiums.
(l)    Mortgagee may apply the undisbursed balance of any deposit made by Mortgagor with Mortgagee in connection with the restoration of the Property after a casualty thereto or condemnation thereof, together with interest thereon, to the payment of the Obligations in such order, priority and proportions as Mortgagee shall deem to be appropriate in its discretion.

14






(m)    Mortgagee may pursue such other remedies as Mortgagee may have under applicable Laws.


Section 8.2.    APPLICATION OF PROCEEDS.  The purchase money, proceeds and avails of any disposition of the Property, and or any part thereof, or any other sums collected by Mortgagee on behalf of Lenders pursuant to the Notes, this Security Instrument or the other Loan Documents shall, subject to the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement, be applied by Mortgagee to the payment of the Obligations in such priority and proportions as Mortgagee in its discretion shall deem proper.
Section 8.3.    RIGHT TO CURE DEFAULTS.  Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, Mortgagee may, but without any obligation to do so and without notice to or demand on Mortgagor and without releasing Mortgagor from any obligation hereunder, make any payment or do any act required of Mortgagor hereunder in such manner and to such extent as Lenders may deem necessary to protect the security hereof.  Mortgagee is authorized to enter upon the Property for such purposes, or appear in, defend, or bring any action or proceeding to protect its interest in the Property or to foreclose this Security Instrument or collect the Obligations, and the cost and expense thereof (including reasonable attorneys’ fees to the extent permitted by Laws), with interest as provided in this Section 8.3, shall constitute a portion of the Obligations and shall be due and payable to Mortgagee on behalf of Lenders upon demand.  All such costs and expenses incurred by Mortgagee or any Lender in remedying such Event of Default or such failed payment or act or in appearing in, defending, or bringing any such action or proceeding shall bear interest at any default rate specified in the Credit Agreement, if any (the “Default Rate”), for the period after notice from Mortgagee or any Lender that such cost or expense was incurred to the date of payment to Mortgagee or such Lender.  All such costs and expenses incurred by Mortgagee or any Lender together with interest thereon calculated at the Default Rate shall be deemed to constitute a portion of the Obligations and be secured by this Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents and shall be immediately due and payable upon demand by Mortgagee or such Lender therefor.
Section 8.4.    ACTIONS AND PROCEEDINGS.  Mortgagee has the right to appear in and defend any action or proceeding brought with respect to the Property and to bring any action or proceeding, in the name and on behalf of Mortgagor, which Mortgagee, in its discretion, decides should be brought to protect its interest in the Property.
Section 8.5.    RECOVERY OF SUMS REQUIRED TO BE PAID.  Mortgagee and Lenders shall have the right from time to time to take action to recover any sum or sums which constitute a part of the Obligations as the same become due, without regard to whether or not the balance of the Obligations shall be due, and without prejudice to the right of Mortgagee and Lenders thereafter to bring an action of foreclosure, or any other action, for a default or defaults by Mortgagor existing at the time such earlier action was commenced.
Section 8.6.    ADDITIONAL PROVISIONS.  With respect to the Collateral, from the Effective Date until the Obligations are paid and performed in full or this Security Instrument is otherwise released by written instrument executed by Mortgagee and authorized to be recorded in the applicable public records of the jurisdiction in which the Property is located, Mortgagee is hereby irrevocably appointed the true and lawful attorney of the Mortgagor (coupled with an interest), in its name and stead, to make all necessary conveyances, assignments, transfers and deliveries of the Collateral, and for that purpose Mortgagee may execute all necessary instruments of conveyance, assignment, transfer and delivery, and may substitute one or more Persons with such power, Mortgagor hereby ratifying and confirming all that its said attorney or 

15






such substitute or substitutes shall lawfully do by virtue hereof.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Mortgagor, if so requested by Mortgagee, shall ratify and confirm any such sale or sales by executing and delivering to Mortgagee or to such purchaser or purchasers all such instruments as may be advisable, in the judgment of Mortgagee, for such purpose, and as may be designated in such request.  To the extent permitted by Laws, any such sale or sales made under or by virtue of this Section 8.6 shall operate to divest all the estate, right, title, interest, claim and demand whatsoever, whether at law, or in equity, of Mortgagor in and to the properties and rights so sold, and shall be a perpetual bar both at law and in equity against Mortgagor and against any and all Persons claiming or who may claim the same, or any part thereof, from, through or under Mortgagor.  Upon any sale made under or by virtue of this Section 8.6, Mortgagee may, to the extent permitted by Laws, bid for and acquire the Property or any part thereof and in lieu of paying cash therefor may make settlement for the purchase price by crediting upon the Obligations secured hereby the net sales price after deducting therefrom the expenses of the sale and the cost of the auction and any other sums which Mortgagee is authorized to deduct by Laws or under this Security Instrument.  At any sale pursuant to this Section 8.6, whether made under power herein granted, under or as otherwise authorized by applicable Laws or pursuant to Legal Requirements, or by virtue of any judicial proceeding or any other legal right, remedy or recourse, it shall not be necessary for Mortgagee to be physically present, or to have constructive possession of, the Property, and the title to and right of possession of any such property shall pass to the purchaser thereof as completely as if the same had been actually presented and delivered to the purchaser at such sale.
Section 8.7.    OTHER RIGHTS, ETC.
(a)    The failure of Lenders or Mortgagee to insist upon strict performance of any term hereof shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any term of this Security Instrument or any other Loan Document.  Mortgagor shall not be relieved of Mortgagor’s obligations hereunder by reason of (i) the failure of Lenders or Mortgagee to comply with any request of Mortgagor or any guarantor or indemnitor with respect to the Loan to take any action to foreclose this Security Instrument or otherwise enforce any of the provisions hereof or of the Notes or the other Loan Documents, (ii) the release, regardless of consideration, of less than the whole of the Property, or of any Person liable for the Obligations or any portion thereof unless, in connection with such release, Mortgagee releases of record this Security Instrument in its entirety, or (iii) any agreement or stipulation by Mortgagee or Lenders extending the time of payment or otherwise modifying or supplementing the terms of the Notes, this Security Instrument or the other Loan Documents.
(b)    It is agreed that the risk of loss or damage to the Property is on Mortgagor, and neither Mortgagee nor Lenders shall have any liability whatsoever for decline in the value of the Property, for failure to maintain the insurance policies required to be maintained pursuant to the Credit Agreement, or for failure to determine whether insurance in force is adequate as to the amount of risks insured.  Possession by Mortgagee shall not be deemed an election of judicial relief if any such possession is requested or obtained with respect to any Property or collateral not in Mortgagee’s possession.
(c)    Mortgagee or Lenders may resort for the payment of the Obligations to any other security held by Mortgagee or Lenders in such order and manner as Mortgagee or Lenders, in their discretion, may elect.  Mortgagee or Lenders may take action to recover the Obligations, or any portion thereof, or to enforce any covenant hereof without prejudice to the right of Mortgagee or Lenders thereafter to foreclose this Security Instrument.  The rights of Mortgagee and Lenders under this Security Instrument shall be separate, distinct and cumulative and none shall be given effect to the exclusion of the others.  No act of Lenders or Mortgagee shall be construed as an election to proceed under any one provision herein to the exclusion of any other provision.  None of Lenders 

16






or Mortgagee shall be limited exclusively to the rights and remedies herein stated but shall be entitled to every right and remedy now or hereafter afforded at law or in equity.
(d)    In the event of a foreclosure sale, whether made under the terms hereof, or under judgment of a court, the Collateral may, at the option of Mortgagee, be sold as a whole with the Land and Improvements.
Section 8.8.    RIGHT TO RELEASE ANY PORTION OF THE PROPERTY.  Mortgagee may release any portion of the Property for such consideration as Mortgagee may require without, as to the remainder of the Property, in any way impairing or affecting the Lien or priority of this Security Instrument, or improving the position of any subordinate lienholder with respect thereto, except to the extent that the obligations hereunder shall have been reduced by the actual monetary consideration, if any, received by Mortgagee or any Lender for such release, and may accept by assignment, pledge or otherwise any other property in place thereof as Mortgagee may require without being accountable for so doing to any other lienholder.  This Security Instrument shall continue as a Lien and security interest in the remaining portion of the Property.
Section 8.9.    RIGHT OF ENTRY.  Upon reasonable notice to Mortgagor, Mortgagee and its agents shall have the right to enter and inspect the Property at all reasonable times.
Section 8.10.    BANKRUPTCY.
(a)    Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Mortgagee shall have the right to proceed in its own name or in the name of Lenders or in the name of Mortgagor in respect of any claim, suit, action or proceeding relating to the rejection of any Lease, including, without limitation, the right to file and prosecute, to the exclusion of Mortgagor, any proofs of claim, complaints, motions, applications, notices and other documents, in any case in respect of the lessee under such Lease under the Bankruptcy Code.
(b)    If there shall be filed by or against Mortgagor a petition under Bankruptcy Code, as the same may be amended from time to time, and Mortgagor, as lessor under any Lease, shall determine to reject such Lease pursuant to Section 365(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, then Mortgagor shall give Mortgagee not less than ten (10) days’ prior notice of the date on which Mortgagor shall apply to the bankruptcy court for authority to reject the Lease.  Mortgagee shall have the right, but not the obligation, to serve upon Mortgagor within such ten-day period a notice stating that (i) Mortgagee demands that Mortgagor assume and assign the Lease to Mortgagee pursuant to Section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code and (ii) Mortgagee covenants to cure or provide adequate assurance of future performance under the Lease.  If Mortgagee serves upon Mortgagor the notice described in the preceding sentence, Mortgagor shall not seek to reject the Lease and shall comply with the demand provided for in clause (i) of the preceding sentence within thirty (30) days after the notice shall have been given, subject to the performance by Mortgagee of the covenant provided for in clause (ii) of the preceding sentence.
Section 8.11.    SUBROGATION.  If any or all of the proceeds of the Notes have been used to extinguish, extend or renew any indebtedness heretofore existing against all or any portion of the Property, then, to the extent of the funds so used, Mortgagee and Lenders shall be subrogated to all of the rights, claims, Liens, titles, and interests existing against the Property heretofore held by, or in favor of, the holder of such indebtedness and such former rights, claims, Liens, titles, and interests, if any, are not waived but rather are 

17






continued in full force and effect in favor of Mortgagee and Lenders and are merged with the Lien and security interest created herein as cumulative security for the payment and performance of the Obligations.
ARTICLE 9.      INDEMNIFICATIONS
Section 9.1.    GENERAL INDEMNIFICATION.

18

EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PERSON WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER.
Section 10.7.    WAIVER OF FORECLOSURE DEFENSE.  Mortgagor hereby waives any defense Mortgagor might assert or have by reason of Mortgagee’s failure to make any tenant or lessee of the Property a party defendant in any foreclosure proceeding or action instituted by Mortgagee.
Section 10.8.    MORTGAGOR’S KNOWLEDGE.  MORTGAGOR SPECIFICALLY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES (a) THAT IT HAS A DUTY TO READ THIS SECURITY INSTRUMENT AND THAT IT IS CHARGED WITH NOTICE AND KNOWLEDGE OF THE TERMS HEREOF, (b) THAT IT HAS IN FACT READ THIS SECURITY INSTRUMENT AND IS FULLY INFORMED AND HAS FULL NOTICE AND KNOWLEDGE OF THE TERMS, CONDITIONS AND EFFECTS OF THIS SECURITY INSTRUMENT, (c) THAT IT HAS BEEN REPRESENTED BY LEGAL COUNSEL OF ITS CHOICE THROUGHOUT THE NEGOTIATIONS PRECEDING ITS EXECUTION OF THIS SECURITY INSTRUMENT AND HAS RECEIVED THE ADVICE OF SUCH COUNSEL IN CONNECTION WITH ENTERING INTO THIS SECURITY INSTRUMENT, AND (d) THAT IT RECOGNIZES THAT CERTAIN OF THE TERMS OF THIS SECURITY INSTRUMENT PROVIDE FOR (i) CERTAIN WAIVERS AND FOR (ii) THE ASSUMPTION BY ONE PARTY OF, AND/OR RELEASE OF THE OTHER PARTY FROM, CERTAIN LIABILITIES THAT SUCH PARTY MIGHT OTHERWISE BE RESPONSIBLE FOR UNDER APPLICABLE LAWS.  MORTGAGEE FURTHER AGREES AND COVENANTS THAT IT WILL NOT CONTEST THE VALIDITY OR ENFORCEABILITY OF ANY SUCH PROVISIONS OF THIS SECURITY INSTRUMENT ON THE BASIS THAT THE PARTY HAD NO NOTICE OR KNOWLEDGE OF SUCH PROVISION OR THAT SUCH PROVISIONS ARE NOT “CONSPICUOUS.”
Section 10.9.    USURY SAVINGS PROVISIONS.  It is the intent of Mortgagee, Lenders and Mortgagor in the execution of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any other written or oral agreement by Mortgagor in favor of Mortgagee and Lenders to contract in strict compliance with applicable usury Laws.  In furtherance thereof, Mortgagee, Lenders and Mortgagor stipulate and agree that none of the terms and provisions contained in the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, or in any other written or oral agreement by Mortgagor or any Loan Party in favor of Mortgagee and Lenders, shall ever be construed to create a contract to pay for the use, forbearance or detention of money, or interest at a rate in excess of the maximum interest rate permitted to be charged by applicable Laws; that neither Mortgagor nor any guarantors, endorsers or other Persons now or hereafter becoming liable for payment of the Obligations are agreeing to pay at a rate in excess of the maximum interest that may be lawfully charged under applicable Laws; and that the provisions of this subsection shall control over all other provisions of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents or any other oral or written agreements which may be in apparent conflict herewith.  Mortgagee and Lenders expressly disavow any intention to charge or collect excessive unearned interest or finance charges in the event the maturity of the Loan or the remaining Obligations are accelerated.  If the maturity of the Loan or the remaining Obligations shall be accelerated for any reason or if the principal of the Loan or the remaining Obligations are paid prior to the end of the term of the Loan or the Obligations, as applicable, and as a result thereof the interest received for the actual period of existence of the Loan or the Obligations, as applicable, exceeds the applicable maximum lawful rate, Mortgagee and Lenders shall, at Mortgagee’s option, either refund to Mortgagor the amount of such excess or credit the amount of such excess against the principal balance of the Obligations then outstanding and thereby shall render inapplicable any and all penalties of any kind provided by applicable Laws as a result of such excess interest.  In the event that Mortgagee and Lenders shall contract for, charge or receive any amount or amounts and/or any other thing of value which are determined to constitute interest which would increase the effective interest rate on the Loan or the Obligations to a rate in excess of that permitted 

20






to be charged by applicable Laws, an amount equal to interest in excess of the lawful rate shall, upon such determination, at the option of Mortgagee, be either immediately returned to Mortgagor or credited against the Obligations then outstanding, in which event any and all penalties of any kind under applicable Laws as a result of such excess interest shall be inapplicable.
ARTICLE 11.          CROSS-COLLATERALIZATION
Section 11.1.    CROSS-COLLATERALIZATION.  Mortgagor acknowledges that the Obligations are secured by this Security Instrument together with those certain other Mortgages (as defined in the Credit Agreement) now or hereafter given by Borrower (or any one or more of them) to Mortgagee (whether one or more, collectively, the “Other Mortgages”) encumbering the real and personal property more particularly described in the Other Mortgages (such real and personal property, collectively, the “Other Properties”), all as set forth in the Credit Agreement.  Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Mortgagee shall have the right to institute a proceeding or proceedings for the total or partial foreclosure of this Security Instrument and any or all of the Other Mortgages whether by court action, power of sale or otherwise, under any applicable provision of Laws, for all of the Obligations and the Lien and the security interest created by the Other Mortgages shall continue in full force and effect without loss of priority as a Lien and security interest securing the payment of that portion of the Obligations then due and payable but still outstanding.  Mortgagor acknowledges and agrees that the Property and the Other Properties are located in one or more states and/or counties, and therefore Mortgagee shall be permitted to, or as the case may be, to direct certain named trustees to, enforce payment and performance of the Obligations and the performance of any term, covenant or condition of the Notes, this Security Instrument, the Other Mortgages or the other Loan Documents and exercise any and all rights and remedies under the Notes, this Security Instrument, the other Loan Documents or the Other Mortgages or, as provided by law or at equity, by one or more proceedings, whether contemporaneous, consecutive or both, to be determined by Mortgagee, in its sole discretion, in any one or more of the states or counties in which the Property or any of the Other Properties are located.  Neither the acceptance of this Security Instrument, the Other Mortgages or the other Loan Documents nor the enforcement thereof in any one state or county, whether by court action, foreclosure, power of sale or otherwise, shall prejudice or in any way limit or preclude enforcement by court action, foreclosure, power of sale or otherwise, of the Notes, this Security Instrument, the Other Mortgages or the other Loan Documents through one or more additional proceedings in that state or county or in any other state or county.  Any and all sums received by Mortgagee or any Lender under the Notes, this Security Instrument, and the other Loan Documents shall be applied to the Obligations in such order and priority as Mortgagee shall determine, in its sole discretion, without regard to any portion of the Loan allocated to any Property or any of the Other Properties or the appraised value of the Property or any of the Other Properties.
ARTICLE 12.      MORTGAGEE AND NOTICES
Section 12.1.    FAILURE TO ACT.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, the failure of Mortgagee to take any action hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall not (a) be deemed to be a waiver of any term or condition of this Security Instrument or any of the other Loan Documents, (b) adversely affect any rights of Mortgagee or any Lender hereunder or under any other Loan Document, or (c) relieve Mortgagor of any of Mortgagor’s obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document.
Section 12.2.    NOTICES.  All notices or other written communications hereunder shall be delivered in accordance with the applicable terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement (including that notices to Mortgagor shall be sent to each of Mortgagor’s addresses set forth in the Credit Agreement and this Security Instrument); provided, however, that any notice given in accordance with the requirements of 

21






any applicable statute (including, without limitation, statutes governing foreclosure or notices of foreclosure) shall be effective when given in accordance with statutory requirements, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document.
ARTICLE 13.      APPLICABLE LAWS
Section 13.1.    GOVERNING LAWS; JURISDICTION; ETC.
(a)    GOVERNING LAW.  THIS SECURITY INSTRUMENT SHALL IN ALL RESPECTS BE GOVERNED, CONSTRUED, APPLIED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK (OTHER THAN THOSE CONFLICT OF LAW PROVISIONS THAT WOULD DEFER TO THE SUBSTANTIVE LAWS OF ANOTHER JURISDICTION).

NOTHING IN THIS SECURITY INSTRUMENT WILL BE DEEMED TO PRECLUDE AGENT FROM BRINGING AN ACTION OR PROCEEDING WITH RESPECT HERETO IN ANY OTHER JURISDICTION. 
(c)    SERVICE OF PROCESS.  EACH PARTY HERETO IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO SERVICE OF PROCESS IN THE MANNER PROVIDED FOR NOTICES IN SECTION 12.2.  NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT WILL AFFECT THE RIGHT OF ANY PARTY HERETO TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.
Section 13.2.    PROVISIONS SUBJECT TO APPLICABLE LAWS.  All rights, powers and remedies provided in this Security Instrument may be exercised only to the extent that the exercise thereof does not violate any applicable provisions of Laws and are intended to be limited to the extent necessary so that they will not render this Security Instrument invalid, unenforceable or not entitled to be recorded, registered or filed under the provisions of any applicable Laws.  If any term of this Security Instrument or any application thereof shall be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Security Instrument and any other application of the term shall not be affected thereby.

Section 18.1.    NO MERGER OF FEE AND LEASEHOLD ESTATES, RELEASES.  So long as any portion of the Obligations remains unpaid or unsatisfied or until this Security Instrument is reconveyed pursuant to the terms hereof or the Credit Agreement, unless Mortgagee shall otherwise consent, the fee title to the Land and the leasehold estate created under the Operating Lease shall not merge but shall always be kept separate and distinct, notwithstanding the union of such estates by purchase, operation of Laws or otherwise.  Mortgagee reserves the right, at any time, to release portions of the Property, including, but not limited to, the leasehold estates created by the Operating Lease, with or without consideration, at Mortgagee’s election, without waiving or affecting any of its rights hereunder or under the Notes or the other Loan Documents and any such release shall not affect Mortgagee’s rights in connection with the portion of the Property not so released.
Section 18.2.    MORTGAGOR’S ACQUISITION OF FEE ESTATE.  So long as any portion of the Obligations remains unpaid or unsatisfied or until this Security Instrument is reconveyed pursuant to the terms hereof or the Credit Agreement, if any Mortgagor shall be the owner of fee title to and/or a leasehold estate in all or any portion of the Property, the Lien of this Security Instrument shall be spread to cover such additional title and rights and said title and rights shall be deemed to be included in the Property.  Mortgagor agrees, at its sole cost and expense, including without limitation, reasonable attorney’s fees to (i) execute any and all documents or instruments necessary to confirm that its title and rights to the Property are subject to the Lien of this Security Instrument; and (ii) provide a title insurance policy which shall insure that the Lien of this Security Instrument is a first lien on its title and rights to the Property.

ARTICLE 19.      THIRD PARTY MORTGAGOR PROVISIONS
Section 19.1.    THIRD PARTY MORTGAGOR.  Each Mortgagor agrees to the provisions of this Article of the Security Instrument with respect to its interest in the property encumbered by this Security Instrument and the obligations secured hereby to the extent the proceeds of the secured obligations have been paid to or for the benefit of a person (the “Third Party Borrower”) other than such Mortgagor.
Section 19.2.    AUTHORIZATIONS TO MORTGAGEE.  Mortgagor authorizes Mortgagee, without notice or demand and without affecting their liability hereunder, from time to time to (i) renew, extend, accelerate or otherwise change the time for payment of, or otherwise change the terms of the secured indebtedness or any part thereof, including increase or decrease of the rate of interest thereon; (ii) take and hold other security for the payment of the indebtedness, and exchange, enforce, waive and release any such security; (iii) apply such security and direct the order or manner of sale thereof, including without limitation, a non-judicial sale permitted by the terms of the controlling security agreement or pledge agreement, as Mortgagee in its discretion may determine; and (iv) release or substitute any one or more of the endorsers or guarantors of any indebtedness.
Section 19.3.    MORTGAGOR’S WARRANTIES.  Mortgagor warrants that:  (i) this Security Instrument is executed at the request of Third Party Borrower; and (ii) Mortgagor has adequate means of 

25






obtaining from Third Party Borrower on a continuing basis financial and other information pertaining to Third Party Borrower’s financial condition without relying on Mortgagee therefor.  Mortgagor agrees to keep adequately informed from such means of any facts, events or circumstances which Mortgagor considers material or which might in any way affect Mortgagor’s risks hereunder.  With respect to information or material acquired in the normal course of Mortgagee’s relationship with Third Party Borrower, Mortgagor agrees that Mortgagee shall have no obligation to disclose such information or material to Mortgagor.
Section 19.4.    MORTGAGOR’S WAIVERS.
(a)    Mortgagor waives any right to require Mortgagee to (A) proceed against any person, including Third Party Borrower; (B) proceed against or exhaust any collateral held from Third Party Borrower, any endorser or guarantor or any other person; (C) give notice of terms, time and place of any public or private sale of personal property or real property security held from Mortgagors; (D) pursue any other remedy in Mortgagee’s power; or (E) make any presentments, demands for performance, or give any notices of nonperformance, protests, notices of protests or notices of dishonor in connection with any obligations or evidences of indebtedness held by Mortgagee as security, in connection with any obligations or evidences of indebtedness which constitute in whole or in part the indebtedness secured hereunder, or in connection with the creation of new or additional indebtedness.  Mortgagor agrees that, in case of default and foreclosure, Mortgagee may enforce this Security Instrument against any or all interests encumbered by this Security Instrument in a single proceeding.
(b)    Mortgagor waives any defense arising by reason of (A) any disability or other defense of Third Party Borrower, any endorser or guarantor or any other person; (B) the cessation from any cause whatsoever, other than payment in full of the indebtedness of Third Party Borrower, of the liability of any endorser or guarantor or any other person; (C) the application by Third Party Borrower of the proceeds of any indebtedness for purposes other than the purpose represented by Third Party Borrower to Mortgagee or intended or understood by Mortgagee or Mortgagor; (D) any act or omission by Mortgagee which directly or indirectly results in or aids the discharge of Third Party Borrower or of any indebtedness by operation of law or otherwise; (E) any modification to any secured indebtedness, and including without limitation the renewal, extension, acceleration or other change in time for payment of the indebtedness, or other change in the terms of the indebtedness or any part thereof, including an increase or decrease of the rate of interest thereon; and (F) all suretyship and guarantor’s defenses generally.
(c)    Mortgagor shall have no right of subrogation, and Mortgagor further waives any right to enforce any remedy which Mortgagee now has or may hereafter have against Third Party Borrower, any endorser or guarantor or any other person, and waives any benefit of, or any right to participate in any security whatsoever now or hereafter held by Mortgagee from Third Party Borrower or any other person.
Section 19.5.    FURTHER EXPLANATION OF WAIVERS.  Mortgagor waives all rights and defenses that the Mortgagor may have because the Third Party Borrower’s debt is secured by real property.  This means, among other things:
(a)    The Mortgagee may foreclose against the Mortgagor’s interests without first foreclosing on any real or personal property collateral pledged by the Third Party Borrower;
(b)    If the Mortgagee forecloses on any real property collateral pledged by the Third Party Borrower: (A) the amount of the debt may reduced only by the price for which that collateral 

26






is sold at the foreclosure sale, even if the collateral is worth more than the sale price; and (B) the Mortgagee may foreclose against the Mortgagor’s interests even if the Mortgagee, by foreclosing on the Third Party Borrower’s interests, has destroyed any right the Mortgagor may have to collect from the Third Party Borrower.
This is an unconditional and irrevocable waiver of any rights and defenses the Mortgagor may have because the Third Party Borrower’s debt is secured by the Third Party Borrower’s interest in real property.
Section 19.6.    MORTGAGOR’S UNDERSTANDINGS WITH RESPECT TO WAIVERS.
(a)      Mortgagor warrants and agrees that Mortgagor has had all necessary opportunity to secure any advice which Mortgagor desires with respect to each of the waivers set forth above, that such waivers are made with Mortgagor’s full knowledge of their significance and consequences, and that under the circumstances, the waivers are reasonable and not contrary to public policy or law.
(b)      Notwithstanding the foregoing, all waivers in this paragraph shall be effective only to the extent permitted by law.
ARTICLE 20.      STATE SPECIFIC PROVISIONS
