such funds as may be deposited in the escrow account from time to time for Borrower’s payment of insurance premiums or real property
taxes due with respect to the Project.

8.8
Indemnification. Borrower hereby indemnifies Lender and agrees to defend Lender and hold Lender harmless from and against
all claims, injuries, losses, costs, damages, liabilities and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and consequential damages)
of any and every kind to any persons or property by reason of (i) the construction or other work contemplated herein, (ii) the operation
or maintenance of the Project, (iii) any other action or inaction by, or matter which is the responsibility of Borrower, or (iv) the breach
of any representation or obligation of Borrower hereunder, except to the extent caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of
Lender or its agents. The foregoing indemnification shall survive repayment of the Loan and shall continue to benefit Lender following
any assignment of the Loan with respect to matters arising or accruing prior to such assignment.

SECTION 9

CASUALTIES AND CONDEMNATION


 


9.1
Notice. In case of the occurrence of any loss or damage to all or any portion of the Project resulting from fire, vandalism,
malicious mischief or any other casualty or physical harm (a “Casualty”), or any exercise of the power of condemnation
or eminent domain (a “Taking”), of the Project, or any part thereof, or any interest therein or right accruing thereto,
Borrower shall promptly give to Lender written notice generally describing the nature and extent of such Casualty or Taking. So long as
Borrower is not in Default, Borrower may adjust, settle and compromise any such insurance policy or any proposed condemnation award, but
in any event, no final adjustment, compromise or settlement of any insurance claim or condemnation award shall be entered into without
the prior written approval of Lender as to such settlement, adjustment or compromise thereof, and Borrower shall deposit with Lender all
proceeds from any insurance policies (“Proceeds”) and all awards from any Taking (“Awards”). Lender
may appear in any such proceedings and negotiations and Borrower shall promptly deliver to Lender copies of all notices and pleadings
in any such proceedings. Borrower will in good faith, file and prosecute all claims necessary for any award or payment resulting from
such damage, destruction or taking. Borrower shall reimburse Lender for all costs and expenses incurred by Lender in exercising its rights
under this section and such costs shall constitute indebtedness secured by the Mortgage and other Loan Documents. Upon a Default, Borrower
hereby authorizes Lender, at Lender’s option, to adjust, settle, compromise and collect any Proceeds under any insurance with respect
to the Project which is kept, or caused to be kept, by Borrower, and any Awards pursuant to any Taking, and hereby irrevocably appoints
Lender as its attorney-in-fact, coupled with an interest, for such purposes.


 






    -34-


     


    

 


9.2
Application of Insurance Proceeds and Condemnation Awards.


 


(a)
Upon a Casualty (as defined in Section 9.1 above), or a Taking (as defined in Section 9.1 above), Lender may (without penalty)
elect to apply as a Loan prepayment, all Proceeds of any insurance policies collected or claimed as a result of such Casualty and all
Awards resulting from such Taking after deduction of all expenses of collection and settlement, including reasonable attorney’s
and adjusters’ fees and charges. Any Proceeds or Awards remaining after payment in full of the Loan and all other sums due Lender
hereunder shall be paid by Lender to Borrower without any allowance for interest thereon.


 


(b)
Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 9.2(a) above, or anything to the contrary contained herein, as long as (i) no Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing hereunder, (ii) the Proceeds or Awards, as the case may be, are sufficient to rebuild the Project
or, if they are insufficient, as determined by Lender in its reasonable discretion, Borrower provides Lender with additional funds necessary,
as determined in Lender’s sole discretion, to rebuild the Project (the “Additional Funds”), (iii) construction
can be completed not less than three (3) months prior to the Maturity Date, and (iv) after completion of the construction, the Loan to
value ratio of the Project is satisfactory to Lender, as determined in Lender’s sole discretion, then the Proceeds or Awards, as
the case may be, may, at Borrower’s request, be applied towards reconstruction of the Project, which Proceeds or Awards or Additional
Funds shall be deposited with Lender and disbursed pursuant the Lender’s disbursement provisions for construction loans of Lender,
as those are amended from time to time, or as otherwise prescribed by Lender. To the extent Borrower deposits Additional Funds with Lender,
Borrower hereby pledges to Lender as collateral for the Loan all Additional Funds.


 


(c)
In the event Lender does not apply the Proceeds or Awards to prepayment of the Loan as provided for in Section 9.2(a) or Lender
does not have the right to apply the Proceeds or Awards pursuant to Section 9.2(b) to prepayment of the Loan, or, in the event such Proceeds
or Awards, if applied, do not fully discharge the Loan, Borrower will:


 


		(i)	Proceed with diligence to make settlement (which shall be subject to the prior written approval of Lender)
with insurers or with condemning authorities and cause the Proceeds or Awards to be deposited with Lender, unless Lender shall elect to
make such settlement without the consent of Borrower.



 


		(ii)	In the event of any delay in making settlement with insurers or effecting collection of Proceeds or Awards,
that Lender determines to be unreasonable, Borrower shall deposit with Lender the full amount required to complete construction and restoration,
disregarding such Proceeds or Awards.



 


		(iii)	Promptly proceed with construction and restoration of the Project, including the repair of all such loss
or damage.



 


All Proceeds, Awards and Additional Funds deposited
by Borrower hereunder shall first be fully disbursed before disbursement of any further Loan Proceeds. Borrower shall not be entitled
to any payment of or credit for interest on such Proceeds, Awards and Additional Funds. In the event of deposit by Borrower of the full
amount required to complete construction of the Project, as aforesaid, upon the subsequent receipt of Proceeds or Awards, such Proceeds
or Awards, as and when received, may be collected and retained by Borrower.


 






    -35-


     


    

 


(d)
Lender shall not be obligated to see to the proper application of any of the Proceeds nor shall the amount so released or used
be deemed a payment on any indebtedness evidenced by the Note or secured by any of the Loan Documents. In the event of foreclosure of
the Mortgage or other transfer of title in lieu of foreclosure, all right, title and interest of Lender, in and to any insurance policies
then in force shall pass to the purchaser or Lender, as the case may be.


 


(e)
All proceeds of use and occupancy or rental value insurance shall be paid to Lender for the purposes of paying, in the following
order: (i) insurance premiums payable with respect to any insurance required to be carried by Borrower hereunder; (ii) taxes, assessments
and charges payable by Borrower under any of the Loan Documents; and (iii) all amounts payable on the Note, together with any and all
other amounts evidenced or secured by any of the Loan Documents, and to the extent that such insurance proceeds are available to pay the
items listed in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii), Lender shall pay such items for the account of Borrower. All such insurance proceeds not
deemed necessary, in Lender’s sole opinion, to pay (or establish reserves for the payment of) the above items shall be paid over
to Borrower.


 


(f) Upon
failure on the part of Borrower promptly to commence or continue the repair or restoration of the Project after settlement of any
claim with the insurer, Lender shall have the right to apply such Proceeds to the payment of any indebtedness secured by the Loan
Documents, and resort to such other remedies available to Lender hereunder; provided, however, that nothing herein contained shall
prevent Lender from applying at any time the whole or any part of such insurance Proceeds to the curing of any Event of Default
hereunder.


 


SECTION 10

more of the following shall constitute an “Event of Default” hereunder, and any Event of Default which may occur hereunder

within said thirty (30) day period, then Borrower shall have an additional thirty (30) day period to cure such failure and no Event of
Default shall be deemed to exist hereunder so long as Borrower commences such cure within the initial thirty (30) day period and diligently

SECTION 11

LENDER’S REMEDIES UPON DEFAULT


 


11.1
Remedies Conferred Upon Lender. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, Lender, in addition to all remedies conferred
upon Lender by Law and by the terms of the Note, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents, may pursue any one or more of the following
remedies concurrently or successively, it being the intent hereof that none of such remedies shall be to the exclusion of any others:


 


(a)
Declare the Note to be due and payable forthwith, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice or action of any kind, all
of which are hereby expressly waived.


 


(b)
In addition to any rights of set-off that Lender may have under applicable Law, Lender may, without notice of any kind to Borrower,
appropriate and apply to the payment of the Note or of any sums due under this Agreement, any and all balances, deposits, credits, accounts,
certificates of deposit, instruments or money of Borrower then or thereafter in the possession of Lender, or its Affiliates. Borrower
hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs Lender from time to time to charge Borrower’s accounts and deposits with Lender (or its
Affiliates), and to pay over to Lender an amount equal to any amounts from time to time due and payable to Lender hereunder, under the
Note or under any other Loan Document. Borrower hereby grants to Lender a security interest in and to all such accounts and deposits maintained
by the Borrower with Lender (or its Affiliates).


 


(c)
Exercise or pursue any other remedy or cause of action permitted at Law or at equity or under this Agreement or any other Loan
Document, including but not limited to foreclosure of the Mortgage and enforcement of all Loan Documents.


 


(d)
With or without entry upon the Land, cause construction of any Tenant Improvements to be completed. Lender, for such purpose, may
use all available materials and equipment located upon the Land and purchase all other necessary materials and employ contractors and
other employees. All sums expended by Lender for such purpose shall constitute disbursements pursuant hereto and shall be secured by the
Mortgage and other Loan Documents and shall forthwith be due and payable by Borrower to Lender with interest thereon at the Default Rate.
The authority and agency conferred hereby upon Lender shall be deemed to create a power coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable.


 


(e)
Have the Project appraised, at Borrower’s cost.


 


(f) Cause
an environmental assessment to be conducted on the Project, at Borrower’s cost.


 


11.2
Right of Lender to Make Advances to Cure Defaults. In the event that Borrower shall fail to perform any of its covenants
or agreements herein or in any of the other Loan Documents contained, Lender may (but shall not be required to) perform any of such covenants
and agreements, and any amounts so expended by Lender shall be deemed advanced by Lender under an obligation to do so regardless of the
identity of the person or persons to whom said funds are disbursed. Loan Proceeds advanced by Lender in the exercise of its judgment that
the same are needed to complete the Project, to protect its security for the Loan are obligatory advances hereunder and shall constitute
additional indebtedness payable on demand which is evidenced and secured by the Loan Documents.


 






    -39-


     


    

 


11.3
No Waiver. No failure by Lender to exercise, or delay by Lender in exercising, any right, power or privilege hereunder shall
operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or
further exercise thereof, or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies provided in this Agreement and
in the Loan Documents are cumulative and not exclusive of each other or of any right or remedy provided by law or equity. No notice to
or demand on Borrower in any case shall, in itself entitle Borrower to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances
or constitute a waiver of the rights of Lender to any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand.


 


11.4
Availability of Remedies. All of the remedies set forth herein, in the other Loan Documents and/or provided by Law or equity
shall be equally available to Lender, and the choice by Lender of one such alternative over another shall not be subject to question or
challenge by Borrower or any other person, nor shall any such choice be asserted as a defense, set-off, or failure to mitigate damages
in any action, proceeding, or counteraction by Lender to recover or seeking any other remedy under this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents,
nor shall such choice preclude Lender from subsequently electing to exercise a different remedy, except as otherwise provided by Law.
The parties have agreed to the alternative remedies hereof specified in part because they recognize that the choice of remedies in the
event of a failure hereunder will necessarily be and should properly be a matter of business judgment, which the passage of time and events
may or may not prove to have been the best choice to maximize recovery by Lender at the lowest cost to Borrower. It is the intention of
the parties that such choice by Lender be given conclusive effect regardless of such subsequent developments. At any sale of the security
or collateral for the Loan or any part thereof whether by foreclosure or otherwise, Lender may in its discretion purchase all or any part
of such collateral so sold or offered for sale for its own account and may apply against the balance due Lender pursuant to the terms
of the Note the amount bid therefore.


 


11.5
Proceeds of Collateral. Any proceeds of collateral received by Lender after an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing,
shall be applied: first, to pay any fees, indemnities, protective advances, or expense reimbursements including amounts then due
to the Lender from Borrower or any Guarantor, second, to pay any fees or expense reimbursements then due to Lender under this Agreement
or any Loan Document from Borrower or any Guarantor, third, to pay interest then due and payable on the Loan, and fourth
to repay all principal due under the Loan to the Lender.

thereto or contemplated thereby, shall represent the entire, integrated agreement between the parties hereto with respect to the Loan
and shall supersede all prior negotiations, representations, or term sheets or commitment letters, if any or agreements pertaining thereto,
either oral or written. This Agreement and any provision hereof shall not be modified, amended, waived or discharged in any manner other
than by a written amendment executed by all parties to this Agreement. An action on the part of the Lender waiving a specific provision
or requirement herein contained, shall not be construed to be a waiver of future application of such provision or requirement or a waiver
of any other provision or requirement hereunder.


 


12.3
Indemnification. To the fullest extent permitted by Law, Borrower hereby agrees to protect, indemnify, defend and save harmless,
Lender and its directors, officers, agents and employees from and against any and all liability, expense or damage of any kind or nature
and from any suits, claims, or demands, including reasonable legal fees and expenses, arising out of this Agreement or in connection herewith,
except to the extent such suit, claim or damage is caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Lender or its agents. This
obligation on the part of Borrower shall survive the closing of the Loan, the repayment thereof and any cancellation of this Agreement.


 


12.4
Captions. The captions and headings of various sections of this Agreement and exhibits pertaining hereto are for convenience
only and not to be considered as defining or limiting in any way the scope or intent of the provisions hereof.


 


12.5
Inconsistent Terms and Partial Invalidity. In the event of any inconsistency among the terms hereof (including incorporated
terms), or between such terms and the terms of any other Loan Document, this Agreement shall be controlling. If any provision of this
Agreement, or any paragraph, sentence, clause, phrase, or word, or the application thereof, in any circumstances, is adjudicated by a
court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, the validity of the remainder of this Agreement shall be construed as if such invalid part
were never included herein.


 


12.6
Gender and Number. Any word herein which is expressed in the masculine or neuter gender shall be deemed to include the masculine,
feminine and neuter genders. Any word herein which is expressed in the singular or plural number shall be deemed, whenever appropriate

limitation, the Loan Documents, shall be deemed to include all written amendments and supplements to such documents from the date hereof,
and all future written amendments and supplements thereto entered into from time to time to satisfy the requirements of this Agreement
or otherwise with the consent of the Lender. Reference to this Agreement contained in any of the foregoing documents shall be deemed to
include all written amendments and supplements to this Agreement.


 






    -41-


     


    

 


12.8 
WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. THE PARTIES HERETO ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT THERE MAY BE A CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL IN
CONNECTION WITH ANY CLAIM, DISPUTE OR LAWSUIT ARISING BETWEEN OR AMONG THEM, BUT THAT SUCH RIGHT MAY BE WAIVED. ACCORDINGLY, THE
PARTIES AGREE THAT, NOTWITHSTANDING SUCH CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHT, IN THIS COMMERCIAL MATTER, THE PARTIES BELIEVE AND AGREE THAT IT
SHALL BE IN THEIR BEST INTERESTS TO WAIVE SUCH RIGHT, AND, ACCORDINGLY, HEREBY WAIVE SUCH RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL, AND FURTHER AGREE
THAT THE BEST FORUM FOR HEARING ANY CLAIM, DISPUTE, OR LAWSUIT, IF ANY, ARISING IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT, THE LOAN
DOCUMENTS, OR THE RELATIONSHIP AMONG THE PARTIES HERETO, IN EACH CASE WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING, OR WHETHER SOUNDING
IN CONTRACT OR TORT OR OTHERWISE, SHALL BE A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION SITTING WITHOUT A JURY.


 


12.9
Notices. Except for service of process as set forth in Section 12.10 below, any notice required under applicable Law to
be given in another manner, any notice, demand, request or other communication which any party hereto may be required or may desire to
give hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been properly given (i) if hand delivered or if sent by telecopy, effective

BORROWER SHALL REFUSE TO ACCEPT DELIVERY, SERVICE SHALL BE DEEMED COMPLETE FIVE (5) DAYS AFTER THE SAME SHALL HAVE BEEN SO
MAILED.


 


12.11 Governing
Law and Jurisdiction. This Agreement has been delivered to and accepted by the Lender and will be deemed to be made in the State
where the Lender’s office is located. THIS AGREEMENT WILL BE INTERPRETED AND THE
RIGHTS AND LIABILITIES OF THE PARTIES HERETO DETERMINED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE WHERE THE LENDER’S OFFICE IS
LOCATED, EXCLUDING ITS CONFLICT OF LAWS RULES. The Borrower hereby irrevocably consents to the exclusive jurisdiction of
any state or federal court in Stark or Cuyahoga county, Ohio; provided that nothing contained in this Agreement will prevent the
Lender from bringing any action, enforcing any award or judgment or exercising any rights against the Borrower individually, against
any security or against any property of the Borrower within any other county, state or other foreign or domestic jurisdiction. The
Lender and the Borrower agree that the venue provided above is the most convenient forum for both the Lender and the Borrower. The
Borrower waives any objection to venue and any objection based on a more convenient forum in any action instituted under this
Agreement.


 


12.12  Waiver of Damages. In no event shall Lender be liable to Borrower for punitive, exemplary or consequential damages, including,
without limitation, lost profits, whatever the nature of a breach by Lender of its obligations under this Agreement or any of the Loan
Documents, and Borrower for itself and its Guarantors waive all claims for punitive, exemplary or consequential damages.


 


12.13 Important
Information About Procedures Required by the USA Patriot Act. To help the government fight the funding of terrorism and money
laundering activities, Federal law requires all financial institutions to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies
each entity or person who opens an account or establishes a relationship with Lender.


 






    -43-


     


    

 


What this means: When
an entity or person opens an account or establishes a relationship with Lender, Lender may ask for the name, address, date of birth, and
other information that will allow the Lender to identify the entity or person who opens an account or establishes a relationship with
Lender. Lender may also ask to see identifying documents for the entity or person.


 


12.14 Preservation
of Rights. No delay or omission on the Lender’s part to exercise any right or power arising hereunder will impair any such
right or power or be considered a waiver of any such right or power, nor will the Lender s action or inaction impair any such right
or power. The Lender’s rights and remedies hereunder are cumulative and not exclusive of any other rights or remedies which
the Lender may have under other agreements, at law or in equity.


 


12.15 Counterparts.
This Agreement may be signed in any number of counterpart copies and by the parties hereto on separate counterparts, but all such
copies shall constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement by facsimile
transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart. Any party so executing this Agreement by facsimile transmission
shall promptly deliver a manually executed counterpart, provided that any failure to do so shall not affect the validity of the counterpart
executed by facsimile transmission.


 


12.16  Successors and Assigns. This Agreement will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrower and the Lender and
their respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns; provided, however, that the Borrower may not
assign this Agreement in whole or in part without the Lender’s prior written consent and the Lender at any time may assign this
Agreement in whole or in part.


 


12.17 Assignments
and Participations. At any time, without any notice to the Borrower, the Lender may sell, assign, transfer, negotiate, grant
participations in, or otherwise dispose of all or any part of the Lender’s interest in the Loan. The Borrower hereby
authorizes the Lender to provide, without any notice to the Borrower, any information concerning the Borrower, including information
pertaining to the Borrower’s financial condition, business operations or general creditworthiness, to any person or entity
which may succeed to or participate in all or any part of the Lender’s interest in the Loan, or which is considering doing so.
If Lender assigns or participates out a portion of the Loan and/or any Loan Documents (“Participation Arrangement”),
while remaining a partial owner and/or co-participant of the Loan, then Lender covenants that to the extent any determination or
decision needs to be made by Lender pursuant to the Loan Documents, or at the request of Borrower, including, without limitation,
determinations or decisions involving draws, waivers, amendments, modifications or extensions, then Lender shall promptly make such
determinations or decisions with no undue delay, notwithstanding such Participation Arrangement. Lender shall take all steps
reasonably necessary to cause any participant in a Participation Arrangement to promptly respond to any request by Borrower and/or
Lender. Additionally, prior to entering into a Participation Arrangement, Borrower shall be provided with any proposed participation
agreement, however titled or characterized by the parties, which is intended to memorialize the Participation Arrangement, and
Borrower shall have the opportunity to comment on the same.


 


12.18 Waiver of Marshalling
of Assets. TO THE GREATEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, BORROWER HEREBY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHTS TO REQUIRE MARSHALLING OF ASSETS BY
LENDER.
