policy (or binder) of insurance required by subparagraph (c) hereof shall be
delivered to Mortgagee at the time of the execution and delivery of this
Mortgage. Certificates or binders evidencing coverage provided upon execution
hereof shall be acceptable to Mortgagee. Borrower shall deliver to Mortgagee

with the requirements hereof. Prior to the expiration of each such policy,
Borrower shall furnish Mortgagee with satisfactory evidence that such policy has
been renewed or replaced or is no longer required. Borrower shall pay all

damage or other casualty with respect to the Improvements, the Equipment or any
part thereof. Borrower shall not permit any condition to exist on the Premises

provided that at the time of any such loss, damage or casualty, an Event of
Default has not occurred, to make the same available to Borrower, in whole or in
part, for the purpose of repairing, restoring, rebuilding or replacing the
damaged Improvements, in which case such proceeds shall be payable to Borrower
in such installments and under such terms and conditions as Mortgagee may
require, or, if any such loss, damage or casualty occurs during the last year of
the term of the Loan and net proceeds exceed $500,000, to apply all or any
portion of the Net Proceeds thereof to payment on account of the unpaid
principal amount of the Loan, whether then matured or not, together with
interest thereon at the Contract Rate to the date of receipt of such payment by
Mortgagee. After application in accordance with the terms of this Mortgage, the
remaining portion of the Casualty Insurance Proceeds (if any) shall be paid over
to Borrower or otherwise as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct.
Borrower shall submit to Mortgagee for prior approval the proposed amount of any
Casualty Insurance Proceeds to be paid by reason of any such loss, damage or
casualty. Mortgagor hereby appoints Mortgagee its agent and attorney-in-fact
(which appointment shall be deemed to be an agency coupled with an interest),
with full power of substitution, to participate in the adjustment and compromise
of any Casualty Insurance Proceeds on its behalf in the event that, at the time
of any such loss, damage or casualty, any Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing. Mortgagor shall execute and deliver to Mortgagee on demand such
assignments and other instruments as Mortgagee may require for such purposes and
shall reimburse Mortgagee and the Agency for their costs (including reasonable
legal fees) in the collection of any Casualty Insurance Proceeds.

                  Within 15 days of receipt of written request therefor,
Borrower shall deliver to Mortgagee receipted bills, canceled checks or other
proof reasonably satisfactory to Mortgagee evidencing payment of the premiums
for the policies of insurance required by this Section.

<PAGE>
                                                                  Page 94 of 107


                  If at any time during the term of the Loan an Event of Default
has occurred and is continuing, Mortgagee may require Borrower to pay to
Mortgagee on the first day of each and every month, together with and in
addition to the monthly installment of principal and/or interest required to be
paid under the Note, a sum equal to the premiums next due under said policies of
insurance (as estimated by Mortgagee), less all sums already paid therefor,
divided by the number of monthly installments of principal and/or interest due
under the Note one month prior to the date on which such premiums shall be due
and payable, which sums, to the extent received, will be held without interest
and applied by Mortgagee to the payment of such premiums as and when the same
become due and payable. If such monthly insurance escrow payments become due at
a time when any premium shall not have been determined, such payments shall be
estimated on the basis of the premium for the preceding year. If the premium
when determined varies from the premium as estimated, (a) any excess arising
from such monthly payments shall be retained by Mortgagee to be applied in
reduction of subsequent monthly payments and (b) any deficiency in the amount of
such monthly payments shall be paid by Borrower to Mortgagee on demand.

                  6. TAXES: Borrower shall pay and discharge all Taxes as and
when the same become due and payable and before any fine, penalty, interest or
cost may be added thereto or become due or be imposed by operation of law for
the nonpayment thereof, unless Borrower is then contesting (after giving prior
written notice thereof to Mortgagee and the Agency), by appropriate legal
proceedings conducted in good faith and with due diligence, the validity,
application or amount, in whole or in part, of such impositions; provided,
however, that (a) such proceedings shall have the effect of suspending the
collection of such contested Taxes from Borrower or the Premises, (b) neither
the Premises nor any part thereof or interest therein would be in any danger of
being sold, forfeited or lost by reason of such proceedings and (c) Borrower
shall have set aside on its books adequate reserves with respect thereto and
shall have furnished such security, if any, as may be required in such
proceedings or requested by Mortgagee. If, by law, any Taxes for local or
municipal improvements are payable, or at the election of the taxpayer may be
paid, in installments, Borrower may pay such Taxes (and accrued interest on the
unpaid portion thereof) in installments as the same become due and payable.

                  Within 15 days of receipt of written request therefor,
Borrower shall deliver to Mortgagee official receipts of the appropriate taxing
authority or other proof reasonably satisfactory to Mortgagee evidencing payment
of any Taxes.

                  Mortgagor authorizes Mortgagee to order annually a certificate
of the Collector of Taxes or of a tax searching agency satisfactory to Mortgagee
certifying as to the status of the payment of Taxes on the official tax records
for the purpose of protecting Borrower from the improper posting of Taxes and as
additional security for Mortgagee against tax sales. Borrower covenants to pay
or cause to be paid any fee or charge in connection with obtaining such
certificate.

                  7. REMOVAL, DESTRUCTION, ALTERATION OR ABANDONMENT OF
MORTGAGED PROPERTY: Mortgagor shall not remove, demolish or structurally alter
any of the Improvements without the prior written consent of Mortgagee.

repairs

<PAGE>
                                                                  Page 95 of 107


thereto and replacements thereof, permit Mortgagee and its representatives to
enter the Premises and the Improvements at reasonable times to inspect the same
and promptly comply with any reasonable request of Mortgagee or its
representatives relating to the repair of the Improvements.

                  9. COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS AND ORDINANCES: Borrower shall comply,
and shall cause all tenants, subtenants and occupants of the Premises to comply,
with all laws and ordinances relating to the use or occupancy of the Premises
and the Improvements and with all requirements, orders and notices of violation
thereof issued by any Governmental Authority, unless Borrower is then contesting
(after giving prior written notice thereof to Mortgagee and the Agency), by
appropriate legal proceedings conducted in good faith and with due diligence,
the validity, application or accuracy, in whole or in part, of any such law,
ordinance, requirement, order or notice. If at any time the then existing use or
occupancy of the Premises or the Improvements shall, pursuant to any zoning or
other law, ordinance or regulation, be permitted only so long as such use or
occupancy shall continue, Borrower shall not cause or permit such use or
occupancy to be discontinued without the prior written consent of Mortgagee.

                  10. SECTION 291-F PROVISIONS: Borrower agrees that it shall
not have the right or power, as against Mortgagee without its consent, to
cancel, abridge or otherwise modify, or to accept prepayments of installments of
rent to become due under, any leases which have an unexpired term of not less
than five years from the date of the execution and delivery of this Mortgage.
The agreement contained in the preceding sentence is made with reference to and
shall be enforceable in accordance with the provisions of Section 291-f of the
Real Property Law. Borrower shall, upon request, enter into an agreement with
Mortgagee pursuant to said Section with respect to any lease hereafter entered
into for a term of at least five years, and Borrower hereby irrevocably
constitutes and appoints Mortgagee its agent and attorney-in-fact (which
appointment shall be deemed to be an agency coupled with an interest), with full
power of substitution in the premises, to execute, deliver and record on its
behalf any such agreement which Borrower has failed or refused to execute and
deliver within 10 days after notice and request therefor is given by Mortgagee.

                  11. LIEN LAW COVENANT: Borrower shall receive the proceeds of
the Loan subject to the trust fund provisions of Section 13 of the Lien Law.

                  12. RESERVED.

request in person or within 10 days upon request by mail, will furnish a written
statement duly acknowledged of the amount due on this Mortgage and whether any
offsets or defenses exist against the mortgage debt.

                  14. ASSIGNMENT OF LEASES AND RENTS. Each Mortgagor hereby
assigns to the Mortgagee all existing and future leases to the Premises or any
portion thereof (excluding the Lease Agreement)(including, but not limited to,

Premises or any portion thereof, and after payment of each cost and expense
(including, but not limited to, each fee and disbursement of counsel to the
Mortgagee) incurred by the Mortgagee in such entry in collection, to apply the
remainder of the same to the loan, without reflecting its right to maintain any
action theretofore instituted or to bring any action thereafter, to enforce the
payment of the Loan. No Mortgagor shall assign such leases, rents, issues or
profits or any interest therein or grant any similar rights to any person
without the Mortgagee's prior written consent.

                  15. RECORDATION OF DOCUMENTS; PAYMENT OF RECORDING AND FILING
FEES AND MORTGAGE RECORDING TAX: Borrower covenants that it will record or cause
this Mortgage to be duly recorded in all offices where recordation thereof is
necessary and that it will pay or cause to be paid any recording and filing
fees, mortgage recording taxes and additional mortgage recording taxes which may
be or may hereafter become due or payable in connection therewith.

                  16. MORTGAGEE AUTHORIZED TO MAKE CERTAIN PAYMENTS ON BEHALF OF

expense or cost which may have been added thereto or become due or been imposed
by operation of law for nonpayment thereof, (c) any amount required to be paid
by any law or ordinance relating to the use or occupancy of the Premises or the
Improvements or by any requirement, order or notice of violation thereof issued
by any Governmental Authority, (d) any recording or filing fees, mortgage

hereafter become due and payable in connection with this Mortgage, Mortgagee is
hereby irrevocably authorized to pay the same on behalf of Borrower, and the

incurred by Mortgagee in connection with such payment, including, but not
limited to, reasonable legal fees and disbursements, and interest on all such

Action.

                  transfers title to the Premises or any part thereof without
                  the prior written consent of Mortgagee;

                  Premises without the prior written consent of Mortgagee;

                      (j) If Borrower fails to maintain its existence as a
                  corporation or dissolves or otherwise disposes of all or
                  substantially all of its assets without the prior written

                  or hereafter constituted, or any other applicable federal or

                      (l) The commencement by Borrower of a voluntary case under
                  the federal bankruptcy laws, as now or hereafter constituted,

                  taking of any action by Borrower in furtherance of any of the
                  foregoing; or

                  application by Borrower or Mortgagee, to issue a new policy or

                  19. RIGHTS AND REMEDIES OF MORTGAGEE UPON DEFAULT: Upon the
occurrence of any Event of Default Mortgagee may, at its option, exercise any
one or more of the following rights and remedies:

<PAGE>
                                                                  Page 99 of 107


                      (a) RIGHT TO CURE DEFAULT. Mortgagee may comply with,
                  perform or observe any covenant or obligation which Mortgagor,
                  after applicable grace periods, has failed to comply with,
                  perform or observe under this Mortgage, any of the other Loan
                  Documents and shall have the right to enter the Premises at
                  any time and from time to time for the purpose of curing such
                  default, and any amounts so paid by Mortgagee or the costs of
                  such performance, together with all costs and expenses
                  incurred by Mortgagee in connection with such payment or
                  performance, including, but not limited to, reasonable legal
                  fees and disbursements, and interest on all such amounts,
                  costs and expenses at the Default Rate, but in no event in
                  excess of the maximum interest rate permitted by law, shall be
                  paid by Borrower to Mortgagee on demand. Until paid by
                  Borrower, all such amounts, costs and expenses, together with
                  the interest thereon, shall be secured by this Mortgage and
                  may be added to the judgment in any Foreclosure Action.

                      (b) RIGHT TO INCREASE INTEREST RATE. Mortgagee may change
                  the interest rate on the Note from the Contract Rate to the
                  Default Rate, such change of rate to become effective on the
                  date notice of such change is given to Borrower and to remain
                  in effect until such Event of Default is cured, regardless of
                  whether Mortgagee elects to accelerate the indebtedness
                  evidenced by the Note by reason of such Event of Default.

                      (c) RIGHT TO ACCELERATE INDEBTEDNESS. Mortgagee may
                  declare the entire unpaid principal amount evidenced by the
                  Note and secured by this Mortgage to be due and payable, in
                  which event said amount shall immediately become due and
                  payable.

                      (d) RIGHT TO TAKE POSSESSION OF PREMISES. Borrower agrees
                  to surrender possession of the Premises to Mortgagee upon
                  demand (and Agency hereby irrevocably consents to the same),
                  and Mortgagee shall thereupon have the right to sublease the
                  Premises, the Improvements or any part thereof, to collect all
                  Rents and to apply the same on account of the indebtedness
                  secured hereby, whether then matured or not, after payment of
                  all proper costs, charges and expenses, including, but not
                  limited to, (i) Taxes, (ii) premiums for the policies of
                  insurance required by Section 5 hereof, (iii) amounts required
                  to be paid by any law or ordinance relating to the use or
                  occupancy of the Premises or the Improvements or by any
                  requirement, order or notice of violation thereof issued by
                  any Governmental Agency and (iv) any and all other costs,
                  charges and expenses which it may be necessary or advisable
                  for Mortgagee to pay in the management, operation and
                  maintenance of the Premises, the Improvements or any part
                  thereof, including, without limitation, the cost of making
                  repairs and alterations, commissions for renting the Premises,
                  the Improvements or any part thereof and legal expenses
                  incurred in enforcing claims, preparing papers or any other
                  services that may be required or otherwise as a court of
                  competent jurisdiction may direct. After taking possession of
                  the Premises, Mortgagee may dispossess, by summary proceedings
                  or otherwise, any tenants, subtenants or occupants of the
                  Premises, the Improvements or any part thereof then or
                  thereafter

<PAGE>
                                                                 Page 100 of 107


                  in default in the payment of any rent, and Mortgagor hereby
                  appoints Mortgagee its agent and attorney-in-fact (which
                  agency shall be deemed to be coupled with an interest), with
                  full power of substitution, for such purpose. In the event
                  that Borrower is then an occupant of the Premises, the
                  Improvements or any part thereof, it agrees to surrender
                  possession thereof to Mortgagee upon demand, and if Borrower
                  remains in possession after such demand, such possession shall
                  be as tenant of Mortgagee, and Borrower agrees to pay monthly
                  in advance to Mortgagee such rent for the Premises, the
                  Improvements or any part thereof so occupied as Mortgagee may
                  reasonably demand, and in default of so doing, Mortgagor may
                  also be dispossessed by summary proceedings or otherwise.

                      (e) RIGHT TO FORECLOSE MORTGAGE. Mortgagee may foreclose
                  this Mortgage and sell, if permitted by law, or petition to be
                  sold, the Premises in such manner or order as a court of
                  competent jurisdiction may direct. If permitted by law,
                  Mortgagee may foreclose this Mortgage for any portion of the
                  indebtedness or any other sums secured hereby which are then
                  due and payable, subject to the continuing lien of this
                  Mortgage for the balance of the indebtedness not then due.

                      (f) RIGHT TO APPOINTMENT OF RECEIVER. In any Foreclosure
                  Action Mortgagee shall be entitled to have a Receiver
                  appointed without notice to Mortgagor, without regard to the
                  adequacy of any security for the indebtedness secured hereby
                  and without regard to the solvency of Mortgagor or any
                  guarantor. Such Receiver shall have and may enforce all of the
                  rights and remedies of Mortgagee under subparagraph (d) hereof
                  to the maximum extent permitted by law.

                      (g) NON-JUDICIAL FORECLOSURE. To the extent permitted by
                  law, Mortgagee may choose to utilize the procedures set forth
                  in Article 14 of the New York Real Property Actions and
                  Proceedings Law and commence a non-judicial foreclosure of
                  this Mortgage by power of sale. To the extent permitted by
                  law, Mortgagor waives any right granted pursuant to Section
                  1421 or any other provision of the New York Real Property
                  Actions and Proceedings Law to challenge Mortgagee's election
                  to enforce this Mortgage by means of such non-judicial
                  foreclosure by power of sale. If the Premises consists of two
                  or more distinct parcels, all of such parcels shall be sold as
                  one parcel, unless Mortgagee shall elect otherwise.

                  20. RIGHTS AND REMEDIES OF MORTGAGEE UNDER SECTION 254 NOT
EXCLUSIVE: The rights and remedies of Mortgagee hereunder shall be in addition
to its rights and remedies under the laws of the State of New York, including,
 but not limited to, its rights and remedies under Section 254 of the Real
Property Law. In the event of any conflict between the terms and conditions of
this Mortgage and the provisions of Section 254 of the Real Property Law, the
terms and conditions of this Mortgage shall control. Nothing contained in this
Mortgage shall be construed as requiring Mortgagee to pursue any particular
right or remedy for the purpose of procuring the satisfaction of the obligations
and indebtedness secured hereby, and Mortgagee may exercise any or all of its
rights and remedies under this Mortgage or any of the other Loan Documents or
otherwise provided by law, in its sole discretion.

<PAGE>
                                                                 Page 101 of 107


No failure of Mortgagee to insist upon the strict performance by Mortgagor of
any of its covenants or obligations under this Mortgage or the other Loan
Documents, and no delay by Mortgagee in exercising any of its rights or remedies
hereunder, thereunder or otherwise provided by law, shall be deemed to be a
waiver of such covenants or obligations or to preclude the exercise of such
rights or remedies, and Mortgagee, notwithstanding any such failure or delay,
shall have the right thereafter to insist upon the strict performance by
Mortgagor of all of its covenants and obligations under this Mortgage and the
other Loan Documents and to exercise any and all of its rights and remedies
hereunder, thereunder or otherwise provided by law.

                  21. ENVIRONMENTAL INSPECTION AND CLEAN UP PRIOR TO
FORECLOSURE/INDEMNIFICATION: If Mortgagee elects to foreclose this Mortgage or
to take a deed in lieu of foreclosure, Borrower shall deliver the Premises to
Mortgagee free of any Hazardous Substances in excess of levels permitted by law
so that the condition of the Premises shall conform with all Environmental Laws
then applicable to the Premises and comply with the terms and conditions of all
Environmental Permits then required in connection with the ownership, use,
operation, sale transfer or conveyance of the Premises. Mortgagee may require
that a full or supplemental environmental inspection and audit report with
respect to the Premises of a scope and level of detail satisfactory to Mortgage
be prepared by an environmental engineer or other qualified person acceptable to
Mortgagee, at Borrower's sole cost and expense. Said audit may include physical
inspection of the Premises, a visual inspection of any property adjacent to or
within the immediate vicinity of the Premises, personnel interviews and a review
of all Environmental Permits. If Mortgagee requires, such inspection shall also
include a records search and/or subsurface testing for the presence of Hazardous
Substances in the soil, subsoil, bedrock, surface water and/or groundwater. If
said audit report indicates the presence on, at, or from the Premises of any
Hazardous Substance or a Release or the threat of a Release of any Hazardous
Substance in a quantity significantly greater than what exists on or is present
at the Premises upon the execution hereof (and is in excess of limits permitted
by applicable law), Borrower shall promptly undertake and diligently complete to
completion all necessary appropriate and legally authorized investigative,
containment, removal, clean up and other remedial actions, using methods
recommended by the environmental engineer or other qualified person who prepared
said audit report and acceptable to the appropriate federal, state and local
regulatory authorities with respect thereto. If Borrower shall fail to promptly
undertake or diligently pursue to completion all such required actions,
Mortgagee shall have the right, but not the obligation, upon ten days written
notice to Borrower (or without notice in the case of emergency), to take or
complete such actions on behalf of Borrower as are reasonably necessary. The
contractors and/or subcontractors selected by Mortgagee for this purpose shall
have the right to enter the Premises with such persons, machinery and equipment
and to undertake such investigative, containment, removal, clean up and other
remedial actions as they shall deem necessary and appropriate with respect to
such actions without thereby incurring any liability to Borrower on account
thereof. Borrower agrees to cooperate with all contractors and/or subcontractors
engaged in such actions. Borrower shall be liable to Mortgagee for all costs and
expenses, including, without limitation, attorneys' and experts' fees, expenses
and disbursements, paid or incurred on account of such actions and shall
promptly reimburse Mortgagee therefor on demand. Until paid by Borrower, all
such costs and expenses and the cost of the environmental inspection and audit
report, together with interest thereon at the rate of three percent (3%) in
excess of the Contract Rate, but in no event in excess of the maximum interest
rate permitted by law, shall be secured by this Mortgage and may be added to the
judgment in any Foreclosure Action. Borrower shall defend, reimburse, indemnify

and hold harmless the Mortgagee, its employees, agents, officers and directors,
from and against any claims, demand, penalties, fines, liabilities, settlements,
damages, costs or expenses of whatever kind or nature, known or unknown,
contingent or otherwise, arising out of, or in any way related to, the violation
of, or other liability or responsibility under, any Environmental Laws, or the
release, threatened release, migration or uncontrolled presence of any Hazardous
Substances in excess of levels permitted by law on, at or from the Premises,
including, without limitation, attorney and consultant fees, investigation and
laboratory fees, court costs and litigation expenses. Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary contained in this Mortgage, Borrower's indemnity hereunder shall
be limited to any Release occurring after the execution hereof, provided that
Borrower assigns to Mortgagee upon transfer of title to Mortgagee all
indemnification rights held by Borrower originally granted by Mattel, Inc.

                  22. COSTS OF SUIT: If any action, suit or proceeding is
commenced by or against Mortgagee, including a Foreclosure Action or any
litigation seeking to recover monies under the Letter of Credit, affecting the
Premises or any part thereof or the lien of this Mortgage, Mortgagee may appear,
defend, prosecute, retain counsel and take such other action as Mortgagee shall
deem necessary or advisable, and the costs thereof (including reasonable legal
fees and all applicable statutory costs, allowances and disbursements), together
with interest thereon at the rate of five percent (5%) in excess of the Contract
Rate, but in no event in excess of the maximum interest rate permitted by law,
shall be paid by Borrower to Mortgagee on demand. Until paid by Borrower, all
such amounts, cost and expenses, together with the interest thereon, shall be
secured by this Mortgage and may be added to the judgment in any Foreclosure
Action.

                  23. NOTICES: If pursuant to the terms of this Mortgage
Mortgagee is required to notify Mortgagor of the existence of a condition or the
occurrence of an event which constitutes or after the giving of notice or the
passage of time, or both, would constitute an Event of Default, such notice
shall be in writing, shall be sent by registered or certified mail, return
receipt requested, postage prepaid, and shall be deemed to have been effectively
given upon receipt or upon refusal by Mortgagor to accept delivery of such
notice.

                  24. GOVERNING LAW: This Mortgage shall be governed by and
interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, including
Section 5-1401 of the New York General Obligations Law (or any similar successor
provision thereto) but excluding all other conflict-of-law rules.

                  25. JURISDICTION: Mortgagor hereby expressly and irrevocably
agrees and consents that any Foreclosure Action may be instituted by Mortgagee
in the Supreme Court of the State of New York in Orleans County, New York, and,
by the execution and delivery of this Mortgage, Mortgagor expressly waives any
objection which it may have now or hereafter to the laying of the venue of or to
the jurisdiction of such court in any Foreclosure Action, and irrevocably
submits generally and unconditionally to the jurisdiction of such court in any
Foreclosure Action.

                  26. COUNTERPARTS: This Mortgage may be executed in one or more

one and the same instrument and shall be binding upon each of the undersigned as
fully and completely as if all had signed the same instrument.

                  27. MISCELLANEOUS: This Mortgage does not cover real property
principally improved or to be improved by one or more structures containing in
the aggregate not more than six residential dwelling units, each having their
own separate cooking facilities. This Mortgage may not be waived, changed or
discharged orally, but only by an agreement in writing signed by Mortgagee. As
used herein, the singular shall include the plural as the context requires. The
covenants, obligations and warranties hereunder shall run with the land and
shall bind Mortgagor, its successors and assigns and all subsequent owners,
encumbrancers, tenants, subtenants and occupants of the Premises and shall inure
to the benefit of Mortgagee, its successors and permitted assigns and all
subsequent holders of this Mortgage. This Mortgage may not be assigned without
the prior written consent of Mortgagor and its senior lender, such consent not
to be unreasonably withheld or delayed. The captions used herein are for
convenience of reference only and shall not be deemed to be a part of this
Mortgage for any other purpose.

                  28. WAIVER OF TRIAL BY JURY: TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW,
MORTGAGOR WAIVES THE RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY FORECLOSURE ACTION.

                  29. USE OF LETTER OF CREDIT PROCEEDS. In the event Mortgagee
draws upon the Letter of Credit, any such funds drawn thereunder shall be
applied first to late charges, then to outstanding interest and finally to
reduce principal due on the Note.

                  30. NO LIABILITY OF AGENCY. With respect to the Agency, it is
agreed that the Agency, its officers, members, employees, agents and directors
shall have no personal liability hereunder, nor in their capacity as officers,
members, employees, agents and directors. Agency has executed this Mortgage to
subject its interest in the Premises to the lien of this Mortgage, however,
Mortgagee shall have no recourse to Agency other than to its interest in said
Premises. No provision, covenant or agreement contained in this Mortgage or any
obligation herein imposed upon Agency or the breach thereof shall constitute or
give rise to or impose upon Agency any pecuniary liability or a charge upon its
general credit. In making the agreements, provisions and covenants set forth in
this Mortgage, Agency has not obligated itself except with respect to the
Premises. All covenants, stipulations, promises, agreement and obligations of
Agency contained herein shall be deemed to be the covenants, stipulations,
promises, agreements and obligations of Agency and not of any member, director,
employee, or agent of Agency in his or her individual capacity, and no recourse
shall be had for the payment of the principal of any debt or interest thereon or
for any claim based thereon or hereunder against any member, director, officer,
employee or agent of Agency or any natural person executing this Mortgage on
behalf of Agency. No covenant herein contained shall be deemed to constitute a
debt of the State of New York or the County of Orleans, New York and neither the
State of New York, nor the County of Orleans, New York shall be liable on any
covenant herein contained nor shall the indebtedness secured by this Mortgage be
payable out of the funds of Agency.
