c.To incur or pay any claim, lien, encumbrance or other expense in protecting its rights hereunder and the security hereby granted;

Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, in addition to any other rights, powers or remedies conferred herein or by operation of law, the Required Mortgagees, in their sole judgment and discretion, may declare the then unpaid principal balance secured by this Mortgage (the "Principal Balance"), the accrued interest thereon and any other accrued but unpaid portion of the Obligations to be, and they shall thereupon forthwith become, immediately due and payable without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by Mortgagor. "Required Mortgagees" means any individual Mortgagee or group of Mortgagees where the sum of the principal amount of the Notes then outstanding held by such Mortgagee or Mortgagees aggregates at least sixty percent (60%) of the total principal amount of all of the Notes then outstanding.

b.Foreclosure and Sale.  If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, Mortgagee shall have the right and option to take possession of the Mortgaged Property and/or proceed with foreclosure and to sell, to the extent and in the manner permitted by applicable law, all or any portion of the Mortgaged Property at one or more sales, as an entirety or in parcels, at such place or places, in such manner and upon such notice as may be required by applicable law, or, in the absence of any such requirement, as Mortgagee may deem appropriate, and to make conveyance to the purchaser or purchasers.  Nothing contained in this Section 14(b) shall be construed so as to limit in any way Mortgagee's rights to sell the Mortgaged Property, or any portion thereof, by private sale if, and to the extent that, such private sale is permitted under the laws of the applicable jurisdiction or by public or private sale after entry of a judgment by any court of competent jurisdiction so ordering.  Mortgagor hereby irrevocably appoints Mortgagee to be the attorney-in-fact of Mortgagor (coupled with an interest) and in the name and on behalf of Mortgagor to execute and deliver any deeds, transfers, conveyances, assignments, assurances and notices which Mortgagor ought to execute and deliver, and to do and perform any other acts or things which Mortgagor ought to do and perform under the covenants herein contained and, generally, to use the name of Mortgagor in the exercise of any of the powers hereby conferred on Mortgagee.  At any such sale: (a) whether made under the power herein contained or any other legal enactment, or by virtue of any judicial proceedings or any other legal right, remedy or recourse, it shall not be necessary for Mortgagee to have physically present, or to have constructive possession of, the Mortgaged Property (Mortgagor hereby covenanting and agreeing to deliver to Mortgagee any portion of the Mortgaged Property not actually or constructively possessed by Mortgagee immediately upon demand by Mortgagee) 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 present and delivered to purchaser at such sale; (b) each instrument of conveyance executed by Mortgagee shall contain a general warranty of title, binding upon Mortgagor and its successors and assigns; (c) each and every recital contained in any instrument of conveyance made by Mortgagee shall conclusively establish the truth and accuracy of the matters recited therein, including, without limitation, nonpayment and/or nonperformance of the Obligations and advertisement and conduct of such sale in the manner provided herein and otherwise required by applicable law; (d) any and all prerequisites to the validity thereof shall be conclusively presumed to have been performed; (e) the receipt of Mortgagee, or of such other Person or officer making the sale, shall be a sufficient discharge to the purchaser for its purchase money and neither such purchaser nor its assigns or personal representatives shall thereafter be obligated to see to the application of such purchase money, or be in any way answerable for any loss, misapplication or non-application thereof; (f) to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Mortgagor shall be completely and irrevocably divested of all of its right, title, interest, estate, claim and demand whatsoever, either at law or in equity (including any statutory or common law right of redemption, which is hereby waived to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law), in and to the property sold in any such event, and such sale shall be a perpetual bar, both at law and in equity, against Mortgagor and any and all other Persons claiming by, through or under Mortgagor; and (g) to the extent and under such circumstances as are permitted by applicable law, Mortgagee may be a purchaser at any such sale, and shall have the right, after paying or accounting for all costs of said sale or sales, to credit the amount of the then unpaid Obligations to the amount of its bid (in the order of priority set forth in Section 15 hereof) in lieu of cash payment.  Each remedy provided in this instrument is distinct from and cumulative with all other rights and remedies provided hereunder or afforded by applicable law or equity, and may be exercised concurrently, independently or successively, in any order whatsoever.

c.Judicial Foreclosure.  If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, Mortgagee shall have the right and power to proceed by a suit or suits in equity or at law, whether for the specific performance of any covenant or agreement herein contained or in aid of the execution of any power herein granted, or for any foreclosure hereunder or for the sale of the Mortgaged Property under the judgment or decree of any court or courts of competent jurisdiction, or for the enforcement of any other appropriate legal or equitable remedy.

d.Mortgagee's Agents.  If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, Mortgagee may appoint or delegate any one or more persons as agent to perform any act or acts necessary or incident to any sale held by Mortgagee, including the posting of notices and the conduct of sale, but in the name and on behalf of Mortgagee.

e.Receiver.  If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, Mortgagee may apply for and obtain as a matter of right and without notice to Mortgagor, which notice is hereby expressly waived by Mortgagor, the appointment of a receiver to collect the rents of the Mortgaged Property and to preserve the security hereof, either before or after any foreclosure sale or the sale of the Mortgaged Property under the order of a court or courts of competent jurisdiction or under executory or other legal process, without regard to the value of the Mortgaged Property as security for the amount then due to Mortgagee, or the solvency of any entity or entities, person or persons primarily or secondarily liable for the payment of such amounts; the rents of the Mortgaged Property, in any such event, having heretofore been assigned to Mortgagee pursuant to this Mortgage as additional security for the payment of the Obligations secured hereby.  Any money advanced by Mortgagee in connection with any such receivership shall be a demand obligation (which obligation Mortgagor hereby expressly promises to pay) owing by Mortgagor to Mortgagee and shall be subject to the provisions of Section 15 hereof.

f.Uniform Commercial Code Remedies.  Mortgagee shall have all of the rights, remedies and recourses with respect to the personalty and the fixtures afforded to it by the applicable UCC, including, without limitation, the right to take possession of the personalty and the fixtures or any part thereof, and to take such other measures as Mortgagee may deem necessary for the care, protection and preservation of the personalty and the fixtures, in addition to, and not in limitation of, the other rights, remedies and recourses afforded by this Mortgage or any other Loan Document.

g.Mortgagees Right to Cure.  Mortgagee shall provide Mortgagor with ten (10) days to cure a monetary Event of Default.  Mortgagee shall provide Mortgagor with a thirty (30) day time period to cure a non-monetary Event of Default, which period shall begin the date Mortgagor knows or should have known of the existence of such Event of Default, provided, however, that if the cure of the non-monetary Event of Default requires more than thirty (30) days, Mortgagee shall extend the cure period to forty-five (45) days so long as Mortgagor has commenced the cure within the thirty (30) day period, and is diligently pursuing the same.



h.Required Consent of Mortgagee Prior to Election of Remedies.  Should an Event of Default continue beyond any and all applicable notice, grace and cure periods as detailed above, Mortgagor shall not proceed with any remedies detailed in this section or otherwise available at law or in equity without first obtaining written consent from the Required Mortgagees.  Upon receipt of written consent for the Required Mortgagees, Mortgagee may pursue any and all rights detailed herein or otherwise available at law or in equity.



15.Application of Proceeds.  After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the proceeds of any sale of and any other amounts generated by the holding, leasing, operating or other use of the Mortgaged Property shall be applied by Mortgagee (or the receiver, if one is appointed), to the extent that funds are so available therefrom, in accordance with the provisions of the Note Purchase Agreement or, if not so provided, then in the following order of priority, except to the extent otherwise required by applicable law:






	first, to the payment of the reasonable and necessary costs and expenses of taking possession of the Mortgaged Property and of holding, using, leasing, repairing, improving the same, including reasonable (i) receivers' fees, (ii) court costs, (iii) attorneys' and accountants' fees, (iv) costs of advertisement and title search fees, and (v) the payment of any and all Impositions, liens, security interests or other rights, titles or interests equal or superior to the lien and security interest of this Mortgage (except those to which the Mortgaged Property has been sold subject to and without in any way implying Mortgagee's prior consent to the creation thereof);


	second, to the payment of all amounts other than the Principal Balance and accrued but unpaid interest which may be due to Mortgagee hereunder, under the Note Purchase Agreement, the Notes or the other Loan Documents, together with interest thereon as provided herein;


	third, to the payment of the Obligations in such order and manner as Mortgagee determines in its sole discretion; and


	fourth, to Mortgagor or as otherwise required by any governmental requirement.

Mortgagor shall be liable for any deficiency remaining.



16.Remedies Cumulative.  The parties agree and acknowledge that the Mortgagee shall not be permitted to exercise any remedies under this Mortgage until such time as it obtains consent from the Required Mortgagees as detailed above.  No remedy herein conferred upon Mortgagee is intended to be exclusive of any other remedy, but every such remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other remedy herein conferred or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute.



17.Delay Not a Waiver.  No delay or omission of Mortgagee in exercising any right or remedy arising upon the happening of any Event of Default shall impair any right or remedy or shall be construed to be a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein; and every right and remedy given by this Mortgage to Mortgagee may be exercised upon consent from the Required Mortgagees as detailed above from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient by Required Mortgagees.



18.Headings.  The Section and Clause headings herein are for convenience only and are not to be deemed a part of the agreement between the parties.



19.Counterparts. This Mortgage may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute but one and the same instrument.



20.Severability.  If any term or provision of this Mortgage or the application thereof to any person or circumstances shall, to any extent, be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Mortgage, or the application of such term or provision to persons or circumstances other than those as to which it is held invalid or unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby, and each term and provision of the Mortgage shall be valid and be enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law.



21.Successors and Assigns.  The word "Mortgagee" as used herein shall be construed as descriptive of Mortgagee named herein, its successors and assigns.  The word "Mortgagor" as used herein shall be construed as descriptive of Mortgagor named herein and of any subsequent owner or owners of the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof.  All of the covenants and agreements of Mortgagor herein contained shall be binding upon and assumed by the successors and assigns of Mortgagor.



22.Release.  Upon full payment of the Obligations and all other amounts secured by this Mortgage, which full payment is acknowledged by Mortgagee to be satisfaction in full of the Loan secured by this Mortgage, this Mortgage shall be null and void; otherwise it shall remain in full force and effect.  In the event that this Mortgage shall, pursuant to the terms of this Section become null and void, Mortgagee shall, within a reasonable time after receipt of the written request of Mortgagor therefore, at Mortgagor's sole expense, execute and deliver to Mortgagor a satisfaction of this Mortgage in recordable form and the appropriate termination statements as provided for and by the Uniform Commercial Code.



23.Security Agreement.  This Mortgage shall constitute a security agreement to the extent that any of the Property constitute fixtures or other personal property, and Mortgagee shall have all the rights of a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code as amended from time to time.
