**Item 1.01 Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement.**

On June 18, 2025, Hill Estates NERA, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the "Hill Estates" or "Borrower"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of New England Realty Associates Limited Partnership, a Massachusetts limited partnership (the "Partnership"), entered into an Interim Loan Agreement (the "Loan Agreement") with KeyBank National Association, a national banking association ("Lender"). Pursuant to the Loan Agreement, the Lender agreed to provide a loan in the principal amount of $67,500,000 (the "Loan"), with the Partnership acting as the Guarantor (as defined in the Loan Agreement).

The purpose of the Loan is to fund the acquisition of the Hill Estates properties (as defined in the Loan Agreement), specifically for the purchase of land located in the City of Belmont, County of Middlesex, Commonwealth of Massachusetts, together with the improvements located thereon, consisting of twenty-eight (28) building(s), containing a total of three hundred ninety-six (396) residential units, four (4) commercial units, parking areas containing five hundred eighty-nine (589) parking spaces, and other improvements. (See item 2.01 of this Current Report.)

Commencing on July 10, 2025, and on the tenth (10<sup>th</sup>) day of every calendar month thereafter during the term of the Loan, Borrower shall pay to Lender all interest accrued and unpaid through the end of the previous month. Interest on the Note is payable on a monthly basis at a floating interest rate of the SOFR rate plus 150 basis points. The principal amount of the Note is due and payable on December 17, 2025.

Borrower shall have the right to make prepayments of the Loan, in whole or in part, without prepayment penalty, upon not less than seven (7) days prior written notice to Lender. No prepayment of all or part of the Loan shall be permitted unless same is made together with the payment of all interest accrued on the Loan through the date of prepayment and an amount equal to all Breakage Costs (as defined in the Loan Agreement) and attorneys' fees and disbursements incurred by Lender as a result of the prepayment.

On June 18, 2025, in connection with the Loan Agreement, the Borrower and the Lender entered into a promissory note (the "Note") executed by the Borrower in favor of the Lender pursuant to the terms of the Loan Agreement. The Note evidences the Loan (as defined in the Loan Agreement), and the Borrower's payment obligations under the Note are governed by the provisions of the Loan Agreement.

The Loan is secured by a mortgage on the Property, as defined in the Mortgage, Assignment of Rents, Security Agreement, and Fixture Filing Agreement between the Borrower and the Lender dated June 18, 2025 (the "Mortgage") and payments under the Loan Agreement are guaranteed pursuant to the Limited Recourse Guaranty Agreement dated June 18, 2025 (the "Guaranty") executed by the Partnership in favor of KeyBank.

The descriptions of the terms of the Loan Agreement, Note, Mortgage, and Guaranty are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the respective documents, copies of which are attached hereto as Exhibits 10.1, 10.2, 10.3, and 10.4, respectively, and are incorporated herein by reference.

Borrower is acquiring the land located in the City of Belmont, County of Middlesex, Commonwealth of Massachusetts, and legally described in <u>Exhibit A</u> attached hereto (collectively, the "<u>Land</u>"), together with the improvements located thereon commonly known as "***Hill Estates***," consisting of twenty-eight (28) building(s), containing a total of three hundred ninety-six (396) residential units, four (4) commercial units, parking areas containing five hundred eighty-nine (589) parking spaces, and other improvements (collectively the "***Improvements***").

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;B. Borrower has applied to Lender for a loan in the amount of SIXTY-SEVEN MILLION FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND AND 00/100 DOLLARS ($67,500,000.00) (the "<u>Loan</u>") to reimburse Borrower for certain acquisition costs of the Project, and Lender is willing to make the Loan on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements herein contained, the parties hereto agree as follows:

**ARTICLE 1<br> INCORPORATION OF RECITALS AND EXHIBITS**

**1.1 Incorporation of Recitals.**

The foregoing preambles and all other recitals set forth herein are made a part hereof by this reference.

**ARTICLE 2<br> DEFINITIONS**

**2.1 Defined Terms.**

The following terms as used herein shall have the following meanings

<u>Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR:</u> The sum of (a) Daily Simple SOFR *and* (b) the applicable SOFR Index Adjustment; *provided that* if Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR as so determined would be less than the Benchmark Floor, then Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR shall be deemed to be the Benchmark Floor.

<u>Administrative Authorized Representatives</u>: Each individual identified as an "Administrative Authorized Representative" in the Loan Administration Authorization.

<u>Affiliate</u>: With respect to a specified person or entity, any individual, partnership, corporation, limited liability company, trust, unincorporated organization, association or other entity which, directly or indirectly, through one or more intermediaries, controls or is controlled by or is under common control with such person or entity, including, without limitation, any general or limited partnership in which such person or entity is a partner.

<u>Agreement</u>: This Loan Agreement.

<u>Applicable Rate</u>: The interest rate applicable to the Loan in the absence of an Event of Default, as such term is further defined in Section 5.1.1.

<u>Appraisal</u>. An MAI certified appraisal of the Project performed in accordance with FIRREA and Lender's appraisal requirements by an appraiser selected and retained by Lender.

<u>Assignment of Rents</u>: An assignment of leases and rents made by Borrower in favor of Lender assigning all leases, subleases and other agreements relating to the use and occupancy of all or any portion of the Project, and all present and future leases, rents, issues and profits therefrom.

<u>Bankruptcy Code:</u> Title 11 of the United States Code entitled "Bankruptcy" as now or hereafter in effect, or any successor thereto, or any other present or future bankruptcy or insolvency statute.

<u>Base Rate:</u> For any day, a fluctuating rate per annum equal to the highest of:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) the rate of interest in effect for such day as established by KeyBank National Association, from time to time, as its "prime rate," whether or not publicly announced, which interest rate may or may not be the lowest rate charged by it for commercial loans or other extensions of credit, plus 0%; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) the Federal Funds Effective Rate in effect on such day plus .50%.

Any change in the Base Rate due to a change in the prime rate or the Federal Funds Effective Rate, as applicable, shall be effective from and including the effective date of such change in the prime rate or the Federal Funds Effective Rate, respectively.

<u>Benchmark:</u> Initially, Daily Simple SOFR; *provided that* if a Benchmark Transition Event has occurred with respect to the then-current Benchmark, then "Benchmark" means the applicable Benchmark Replacement, to the extent that such Benchmark Replacement has replaced such prior benchmark rate pursuant to Section 5.1.5.

<u>Benchmark Floor:</u> Zero percent (0 basis points) per annum.

<u>Benchmark Replacement:</u> With respect to any Benchmark Transition Event for the then-current Benchmark, the sum of: (i) the alternate benchmark rate that has been selected by Lender as the replacement for such Benchmark giving due consideration to (A) any selection or recommendation of a replacement benchmark rate or the mechanism for determining such a rate by the Relevant Governmental Body or (B) any evolving or then-prevailing market convention for determining a benchmark rate as a replacement for such Benchmark for credit facilities denominated in U.S. Dollars at such time and (ii) the related Benchmark Replacement Adjustment, if any; provided that, if such Benchmark Replacement as so determined would be less than the Benchmark Floor, such Benchmark Replacement will be deemed to be the Benchmark Floor for the purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

<u>Benchmark Replacement Adjustment:</u> With respect to any replacement of the then-current Benchmark with an Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement the spread adjustment, or method for calculating or determining such spread adjustment (which may be a positive or negative value or zero), if any, that has been selected by Lender giving due consideration to (a) any selection or recommendation of a spread adjustment, or method for calculating or determining such spread adjustment, for the replacement of such Benchmark with the applicable Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement by the Relevant Governmental Body or (b) any evolving or then-prevailing market convention for determining a spread adjustment, or method for calculating or determining such spread adjustment, for the replacement of such Benchmark with the applicable Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement for U.S. Dollar-denominated bilateral credit facilities.

<u>Benchmark Replacement Date:</u> The earlier to occur of the following events with respect to the then-current Benchmark:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) in the case of clause (a) or (b) of the definition of "Benchmark Transition Event," the later of (i) the date of the public statement or publication of information referenced therein and (ii) the date on which the administrator of such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof) permanently or indefinitely ceases to provide such Benchmark (or such component thereof); or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) in the case of clause (c) of the definition of "Benchmark Transition Event," the first date on which such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof) has been determined and announced by the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark (or such component thereof) to be non-representative; provided, that such non-representativeness will be determined by reference to the most recent statement or publication referenced in such clause (c) and even if any available tenor of such Benchmark (or such component thereof) continues to be provided on such date.

For the avoidance of doubt, the "Benchmark Replacement Date" will be deemed to have occurred in the case of clause (a) or (b) with respect to any Benchmark upon the occurrence of the applicable event or events set forth therein with respect to all then-current available tenors of such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof).

**ARTICLE 5<br> INTEREST**

**5.1 Interest Rate.**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**5.1.1** <u>Applicable Rate</u>. Unless the Default Rate is applicable under the terms of the Loan Documents, and except as otherwise provided in Section 5.1.3, 5.1.4, or 5.1.5, the outstanding principal balance of the Loan will bear interest at Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR plus the Margin (the "***Applicable Rate***").

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**5.1.2** <u>Rates</u>. The Applicable Rate may be determined by reference to a benchmark rate that is, or may in the future become, the subject of regulatory reform or cessation. Lender does not warrant or accept any responsibility for, and shall not have any liability with respect to (a) the continuation of, administration of, submission of, calculation of or any other matter related to the Base Rate, Daily Simple SOFR, Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR, or any component definition thereof or rates referred to in the definition thereof, or any alternative, successor or replacement rate thereto (including any Benchmark Replacement), including whether the composition or characteristics of any such alternative, successor or replacement rate (including any Benchmark Replacement) will be similar to, or produce the same value or economic equivalence of, or have the same volume or liquidity as, the Base Rate, Daily Simple SOFR, Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR, or any other Benchmark prior to its discontinuance or unavailability, or (b) the effect, implementation or composition of any Conforming Changes. Lender and its affiliates or other related entities may engage in transactions that affect the calculation of the Base Rate, Daily Simple SOFR, Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR, the any alternative, successor or replacement rate (including any Benchmark Replacement) or any relevant adjustments thereto, in each case, in a manner adverse to the Borrower. Lender may select information sources or services in its reasonable discretion to ascertain the Base Rate, Daily Simple SOFR, Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR, or any other Benchmark, in each case pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, and shall have no liability to Borrower or any other person or entity for damages of any kind, including direct or indirect, special, punitive, incidental or consequential damages, costs, losses or expenses (whether in tort, contract or otherwise and whether at law or in equity), for any error or calculation of any such rate (or component thereof) provided by any such information source or service. Lender will, in keeping with industry practice, continue using its current rounding practices in connection with the Base Rate, Daily Simple SOFR or Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR. In connection with the use or administration of Daily Simple SOFR or Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR, Lender will have the right to make Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document. Lender will promptly notify Borrower of the effectiveness of any Conforming Changes in connection with the use or administration of Daily Simple SOFR or Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**5.1.3** <u>Illegality</u>. If Lender determines that any applicable Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for Lender or its applicable lending office to make, maintain, or fund loans whose interest is determined by reference to Daily Simple SOFR or SOFR, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon Daily Simple SOFR or SOFR, then, (i) Lender shall notify Borrower that Lender is no longer able to maintain the Applicable Rate based on Daily Simple SOFR, and (ii) the Applicable Rate shall automatically be converted to the Base Rate upon notice thereof to Borrower. The Base Rate will then be the Applicable Rate until Lender notifies Borrower that the circumstances described herein no longer exist, in which case the Applicable Rate will be converted back to Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR plus the Margin from the date of Lender's notice that such circumstances no longer exist.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**5.1.4** <u>Temporary Inability to Determine Rate</u>. If Lender determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that "Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR" cannot be determined pursuant to the definition thereof other than as a result of a Benchmark Transition Event, Lender will promptly so notify Borrower. Upon notice thereof by Lender to Borrower, the Base Rate shall be the Applicable Rate until Lender revokes such notice.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**5.1.5** <u>Permanent Inability to Determine Rate; Benchmark Replacement</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5.1.5.1 <u>Benchmark Replacement</u>. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, Lender may amend this Agreement to replace the then-current Benchmark with a Benchmark Replacement, in which case the "Applicable Rate" will be the Benchmark Replacement plus the Margin, and such amendment will become effective as of the effective date stated in the amendment. No replacement of the then-current Benchmark with a Benchmark Replacement pursuant to this Section 5.1.5 will occur prior to the applicable Benchmark Transition Start Date. Unless and until a Benchmark Replacement is effective in accordance with this Section 5.1.5.1, the Base Rate will be the Applicable Rate.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5.1.5.2 <u>Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes</u>. In connection with the use, administration, adoption or implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, Lender will have the right to make Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5.1.5.3 <u>Notices; Standards for Decisions and Determinations</u>. Lender will promptly notify Borrower of the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement and the effectiveness of any Conforming Changes. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by Lender pursuant to this Section 5.1.5, including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate, or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in Lender's sole discretion and without consent from any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 5.1.5.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5.1.5.4 <u>Benchmark Unavailability Period</u>. During any Benchmark Unavailability Period, the Base Rate will be the Applicable Rate until a Benchmark Replacement has replaced the then-current Benchmark pursuant to this Section 5.1.5, in which case the Applicable Rate will be the Benchmark Replacement plus the Margin. Lender shall have no duty to notify Borrower in advance that the Applicable Rate is converting to the Base Rate, except as expressly required pursuant to this Section 5.1.5.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**5.1.6** <u>Information as to Rates</u>. The applicable Base Rate, Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR, and Benchmark Replacement shall be determined by Lender, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**5.1.7** <u>Default Rate</u>. The Loan shall bear interest at the Default Rate following the occurrence and during the continuation of any Event of Default.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**5.1.8** <u>Calculation of Interest</u>. Interest at the Applicable Rate or Default Rate shall be calculated for the actual number of days elapsed on the basis of a 360-day year, including the first date of the applicable period to, but not including, the date of repayment.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**5.1.9** <u>Accrual of Interest</u>. Interest shall accrue from the time of disbursement. For any Loan proceeds that are disbursed into escrow (a) to be released to Borrower on the Closing Date, or (b) at Borrower's request, as all or part of a Draw Request, interest on such funds shall be calculated from the date Lender deposits such funds into escrow, regardless of whether and when Borrower satisfies all conditions for release of such funds from escrow. Lender shall have no obligation to require the escrow agent to deposit escrowed funds in an interest-bearing account

**5.2 Interest Rate Agreements.**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Any indebtedness incurred pursuant to an Interest Rate Agreement entered into by Borrower and Lender shall constitute indebtedness evidenced by the Note and secured by the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents to the same extent and effect as if the terms and provisions of such Interest Rate Agreement were set forth herein, whether or not the aggregate of such indebtedness, together with the disbursements made by Lender of the proceeds of the Loan, shall exceed the face amount of the Note.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Borrower hereby collaterally assigns to Lender for the benefit of Lender any and all Interest Rate Protection Products purchased or to be purchased by Borrower in connection with the Loan, as additional security for the Loan, and agrees to provide Lender with any additional documentation requested by Lender in order to confirm or perfect such security interest during the term of the Loan.

In making any payment from the Impound Account, Lender shall be entitled to rely on any bill, statement, or estimate procured from the appropriate public office or insurance company or agent without any inquiry into the accuracy of such bill, statement, or estimate and without any inquiry into the accuracy, validity, enforceability, or contestability of any tax, assessment, valuation, sale, forfeiture, tax lien or title or claim thereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) If the total funds in the Impound Account at any time exceed the amount of payments actually applied by Lender for the purposes of the Impound Account, such excess may be credited by Lender on subsequent payments to be made hereunder or, at the option of Lender, refunded to Borrower. In allocating such excess, Lender may deal with the person shown on the records of Lender to be the owner of the Project. If, however, the Impound Account does not contain sufficient funds to pay the sums required when the same become due and payable, Borrower shall, within ten (10) days after receipt of written notice thereof, deposit with Lender the full amount of any such deficiency. Failure to make such deficiency deposit when due shall constitute an immediate Event of Default.

Borrower shall notify Lender promptly in writing in the event a non-residential Tenant commits a material default under a Lease.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) <u>Lender's Attorneys' Fees for Enforcement of Agreement</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;v. Borrower shall provide Lender a new Beneficial Ownership Certification if required pursuant to the OFAC Review Process;

Brown maintains the same right and ability to Control Borrower as existed prior to the Transfer, Lender shall consent to Transfers of
direct or indirect ownership interests in Borrower or Guarantor to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;i. immediate family members of such transferor, each of whom must have obtained the legal age of majority;

Borrower agrees to indemnify and hold Lender free and harmless from and against all losses, costs (including attorneys' fees and expenses), taxes, damages (including consequential damages) and expenses Lender may suffer by reason of the investigation, defense and settlement of claims and in obtaining any prohibited transaction exemption under ERISA necessary or desirable in Lender's sole judgment or by reason of a breach of the foregoing prohibitions.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(p) Borrower or Guarantor fails, at any time, to comply with any of the financial reporting requirements or financial covenants set forth on Exhibit G.

**ARTICLE 16<br> LENDER'S REMEDIES IN EVENT OF DEFAULT**

**16.1 Remedies Conferred Upon Lender.**

Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, Lender 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 other:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Take possession of the Project and do anything which is necessary or appropriate in its sole judgment to fulfill the obligations of Borrower under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including either the right to avail itself of and procure performance of existing contracts or let any contracts with the same contractors or others. Without restricting the generality of the foregoing and for the purposes aforesaid, Borrower hereby appoints and constitutes Lender its lawful attorney-in-fact with full power of substitution in the Project to use unadvanced funds remaining under the Note or which may be reserved, escrowed or set aside for any purposes hereunder at any time, or to advance funds in excess of the face amount of the Note, to execute all applications and certificates in the name of Borrower prosecute and defend all actions or proceedings in connection with the Improvements or Project; and in connection therewith, to execute instruments of release and satisfaction; and to do any and every act which the Borrower might do in its own behalf; it being understood and agreed that this power of attorney shall be a power coupled with an interest and cannot be revoked;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Withhold further disbursement of the proceeds of the Loan and/or terminate Lender's obligations to make further disbursements hereunder;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Declare the Note to be immediately due and payable;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Use and apply any monies or letters of credit deposited by Borrower with Lender, regardless of the purposes for which the same was deposited, to cure any such default or to apply on account of any indebtedness under this Agreement which is due and owing to Lender; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) Exercise or pursue any other remedy or cause of action permitted under this Agreement or any other Loan Documents, or conferred upon Lender by operation of Law.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default under <u>Section 19.1(h)</u> with respect to Borrower, all amounts evidenced by the Note shall automatically become due and payable, without any presentment, demand, protest or notice of any kind to Borrower.

**ARTICLE 17<br> GENERAL PROVISIONS**

**17.1 Captions.**

The captions and headings of various Articles, Sections and subsections of this Agreement and Exhibits pertaining hereto are for convenience only and are not to be considered as defining or limiting in any way the scope or intent of the provisions hereof.

**17.2 Modification; Waiver.**

No modification, waiver, amendment or discharge of this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be valid unless the same is in writing and signed by the party against which the enforcement of such modification, waiver, amendment or discharge is sought.

**17.3 Governing Law.**

Irrespective of the place of execution and/or delivery, this Agreement shall be governed by, and shall be construed in accordance with, the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.

**17.4 Acquiescence Not to Constitute Waiver of Lender's Requirements.**

Each and every covenant and condition for the benefit of Lender contained in this Agreement may be waived by Lender, provided, however, that to the extent that Lender may have acquiesced in any noncompliance with any conditions precedent to the Closing of the Loan, such acquiescence shall not be deemed to constitute a waiver by Lender of such requirements with respect to any future disbursements of Loan proceeds.

**17.5 Disclaimer by Lender.**

The Loan Documents are made for the sole benefit of such Borrower and Lender, and no other person or persons shall have any benefits, rights or remedies under or by reason of the Loan Documents, or by reason of any actions taken by Lender pursuant to the Loan Documents. Lender shall not be liable for any debts or claims accruing in favor of any such parties against Borrower or others or against the Project. Lender, by making the Loan or taking any action pursuant to any of the Loan Documents, shall not be deemed a partner or a joint venturer with Borrower or fiduciary of Borrower. No payment of funds directly to a contractor or subcontractor or provider of services be deemed to create any third-party beneficiary status or recognition of same by the Lender.

**17.6 Partial Invalidity; Severability.**

If any of the provisions of this Agreement, or the application thereof to any person, party or circumstances, shall, to any extent, be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Agreement, or the application of such provision or provisions to persons, parties or circumstances other than those as to whom or which it is held invalid or unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby, and every provision of this Agreement shall be valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law.

**17.7 Definitions Include Amendments.**

Definitions contained in this Agreement which identify documents, including, but not limited to, the Loan Documents, shall be deemed to include all amendments and supplements to such documents from the date hereof, and all future amendments, modifications, and supplements thereto entered into from time to time to satisfy the requirements of this Agreement or otherwise with the consent of Lender. Reference to this Agreement contained in any of the foregoing documents shall be deemed to include all amendments and supplements to this Agreement.

**17.8 Execution in Counterparts.**

This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement.

**17.9 Electronic Signatures.**

The electronic signature of a party to this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents shall be as valid as an original signature of such party and shall be effective to bind such party to such document. The parties agree that any electronically signed document (including this Agreement) shall be deemed (i) to be "written" or "in writing," (ii) to have been signed, and (iii) to constitute a record established and maintained in the ordinary course of business and an original written record when printed from electronic files. Such paper copies or "printouts," if introduced as evidence in any proceeding, will be admissible as between the parties to the same extent and under the same conditions as other original business records created and maintained in documentary form. Neither party shall contest the admissibility of true and accurate copies of electronically signed documents on the basis of the best evidence rule or as not satisfying the business records exception to the hearsay rule. For purposes hereof, "electronic signature" means a manually signed original signature that is then transmitted via the internet as a "pdf" (portable document format) or other replicating image attached to an e-mail message, and "electronically signed document" means a document transmitted via e-mail containing an electronic signature.

**17.10 Entire Agreement.**

This Agreement, taken together with all of the other Loan Documents and all certificates and other documents delivered by Borrower to Lender, embody the entire agreement and supersede all prior agreements, written or oral, relating to the subject matter hereof.

**17.11 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 Guarantor waive all claims for punitive, exemplary or consequential damages.

**17.12 Claims Against Lender.**

Lender shall not be in default under this Agreement, or under any other Loan Documents, unless a written notice specifically setting forth the claim of Borrower shall have been given to Lender within three (3) months after Borrower first had knowledge of the occurrence of the event which Borrower alleges gave rise to such claim and Lender does not remedy or cure the default, if any there be, promptly thereafter. Borrower waives any claim, set-off or defense against Lender arising by reason of any alleged default by Lender as to which Borrower does not give such notice timely as aforesaid. Borrower acknowledges that such waiver is or may be essential to Lender's ability to enforce its remedies without delay and that such waiver therefore constitutes a substantial part of the bargain between Lender and Borrower with regard to the Loan. No Guarantor or Tenant is intended to have any rights as a third-party beneficiary of the provisions of this <u>Section 21.11</u>.

**17.13 Jurisdiction.**

TO THE GREATEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, BORROWER HEREBY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHTS TO REQUIRE MARSHALLING OF ASSETS BY LENDER. WITH RESPECT TO ANY SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDINGS RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT (EACH, A "<u>PROCEEDING</u>"), BORROWER IRREVOCABLY (A) SUBMITS TO THE NON-EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE STATE AND FEDERAL COURTS HAVING JURISDICTION IN THE CITY OF BOSTON, COUNTY OF SUFFOLK AND COMMONWEALTH OF MASSACHUSETTS AND (B) WAIVES ANY OBJECTION WHICH IT MAY HAVE AT ANY TIME TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN ANY SUCH COURT, WAIVES ANY CLAIM THAT ANY PROCEEDING HAS BEEN BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT FORUM AND FURTHER WAIVES THE RIGHT TO OBJECT, WITH RESPECT TO SUCH PROCEEDING, THAT SUCH COURT DOES NOT HAVE JURISDICTION OVER SUCH PARTY. NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT SHALL PRECLUDE LENDER FROM BRINGING A PROCEEDING IN ANY OTHER JURISDICTION NOR WILL THE BRINGING OF A PROCEEDING IN ANY ONE OR MORE JURISDICTIONS PRECLUDE THE BRINGING OF A PROCEEDING IN ANY OTHER JURISDICTION. BORROWER FURTHER AGREES AND CONSENTS THAT, IN ADDITION TO ANY METHODS OF SERVICE OF PROCESS PROVIDED FOR UNDER APPLICABLE LAW, ALL SERVICE OF PROCESS IN ANY PROCEEDING IN ANY MASSACHUSETTS STATE OR UNITED STATES COURT SITTING IN THE CITY OF BOSTON AND COUNTY OF SUFFOLK MAY BE MADE BY CERTIFIED OR REGISTERED MAIL, RETURN RECEIPT REQUESTED, DIRECTED TO BORROWER AT THE ADDRESS INDICATED BELOW, AND SERVICE SO MADE SHALL BE COMPLETE UPON RECEIPT; <u>EXCEPT</u> THAT IF BORROWER SHALL REFUSE TO ACCEPT DELIVERY, SERVICE SHALL BE DEEMED COMPLETE FIVE (5) DAYS AFTER THE SAME SHALL HAVE BEEN SO MAILED.

**17.14 Set-Offs.**

After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, 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).

**17.15 Anti-Terrorism Disclosure.**

Lender hereby notifies Borrower that to help the government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, federal Laws require Lender to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each customer that opens an account with Lender, which information includes the name and address of Borrower and other information that will allow Lender to identify Borrower in accordance with applicable Laws. All new and existing customers of Lender are subject to the identity verification requirements. When a customer opens an account with Lender or any Affiliate of Lender, Lender will ask for the customer's name, address, and identification number, and in the case of an individual, his or her date of birth. For business accounts, Lender may also obtain this information for individuals associated with the business. Lender may also request to see a valid driver's license or other approved identifying documents. Borrower agrees to provide any information requested by Lender to comply with applicable Laws.

**17.16 Electronic Transmission of Documents.**

Lender and Borrower agree that certain data related to the Loan (including confidential information, documents, applications and reports) may be transmitted electronically, including transmission over the Internet. This data may be transmitted to, received from or circulated among agents and representatives of Borrower and/or Lender and their Affiliates and other persons involved with this transaction, including attorneys, title officers, and accountants. Borrower acknowledges and agrees that (a) there are risks associated with the use of electronic transmission and that Lender does not control the method of transmittal or service providers, (b) Lender has no obligation or responsibility whatsoever and assumes no duty or obligation for the security, receipt or third party interception of any such transmission, and (c) Borrower will release, hold harmless, and indemnify Lender for, from and against any claim, damage or loss, including that arising in whole or part from Lender's strict liability or sole, comparative or contributory negligence, that is related to the electronic transmission of data, provided that Lender used commercially reasonable efforts in conformance with industry standards to safeguard such information and data.

**ARTICLE 18<br> NOTICES**

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 (a) if hand delivered, when delivered; (b) if mailed by United States Certified Mail (postage prepaid, return receipt requested), three Business Days after mailing (c) if by Federal Express or other reliable overnight courier service, on the next Business Day after delivered to such courier service or (d) if by telecopier on the day of transmission so long as copy is sent on the same day by overnight courier as set forth below:

NOTICE TO BORROWER: THIS DOCUMENT CONTAINS PROVISIONS FOR A VARIABLE INTEREST RATE.

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, HILL ESTATES NERA, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company ("***Borrower***"), having an address at c/o The Hamilton Company, 39 Brighton Avenue, Boston, Massachusetts 02134, hereby promises to pay to the order of KEYBANK NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, a national banking association ("***Lender***"), having an address at 66 South Pearl Street, 7th Floor, Mail Code: NY-31-66-0767, Albany, NY 12207, the principal sum of SIXTY-SEVEN million FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND and 00/100ths Dollars ($67,500,000.00) or so much thereof as may be advanced from time to time, together with interest on the balance of principal from time to time outstanding, in United States currency, at the rates and at the times hereinafter described.

This Note is made by Borrower in favor of Lender pursuant to that certain Interim Loan Agreement of even date herewith (the "***Loan Agreement***") entered into between Lender and Borrower. This Note evidences the Loan (as defined in the Loan Agreement). Payment of this Note is governed by the Loan Agreement, the terms of which are incorporated herein by express reference as if fully set forth herein. Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings given to them in the Loan Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1.** **Interest.** Provided that no Event of Default exists, the principal amount of the Loan outstanding from time to time will bear interest at the Applicable Rate. Interest shall accrue on the unpaid principal balance of this Note from the date of the first disbursement of Loan proceeds.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**2.** **Monthly Payments.** Interest only shall be payable in arrears on the tenth (10th) day of each calendar month commencing on July 10, 2025, up to and including the Maturity Date in the amount of all interest accrued and unpaid through the end of the preceding calendar month. If a payment is due on a day that is not a Business Day, such payment shall be deemed due on the next succeeding Business Day. All payments on account of the indebtedness evidenced by this Note shall be made to Lender not later than 2:00 p.m. EST/EDT, on the day when due in lawful money of the United States, and shall be first applied to late charges, costs of collection or enforcement, and other similar amounts due, if any, under this Note and any of the other Loan Documents, then to interest due and payable hereunder and the remainder to principal due and payable hereunder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**3.** **Maturity Date.** The indebtedness evidenced hereby shall mature on the Maturity Date. On the Maturity Date, the entire outstanding principal balance hereof, together with accrued and unpaid interest and all other sums evidenced by this Note, together with costs of collection and reasonable attorneys' fees, if any, shall, if not sooner paid, become due and payable.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**4.** **General Provisions.**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**4.1** **Default Rate/Late Charge.** If (a) subject to applicable notice and cure rights, Borrower fails to make any payment of principal or interest when due or (b) an Event of Default exists, then the principal balance hereof shall thereafter bear interest at the Default Rate. In addition, Borrower shall pay, on demand, the Late Charge stated in the Loan Agreement to cover the extra expense involved in handling delinquent payments, provided, however, that such Late Charge shall not apply to the payment due on the Maturity Date or on account of acceleration of the Loan. .

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**4.2** **Business Purpose.** Borrower represents and warrants to Lender that the proceeds of this Note shall be used by Borrower exclusively for commercial and business purposes, and that none of the proceeds of this Note shall be used by Borrower for personal, family, or household purposes. Borrower agrees that the obligation evidenced by this Note is an exempt transaction under the Truth-in-Lending Act, 15 U.S.C. § 1601, *et seq*.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**4.3** **Severability.** Each provision in this Note is intended to comply with all applicable Laws. However, if a court of competent jurisdiction holds that any provision of this Note, or any portion thereof, is illegal, invalid, unlawful, void, or otherwise unenforceable as written, (i) such provision, or portion thereof, shall be given force and effect to the fullest possible extent permitted under applicable Laws, (ii) this Note shall be construed as if the illegal, invalid, unlawful, void, or otherwise unenforceable provision or portion thereof was not contained herein, and (iii) the rights, obligations, and interests of Borrower and the holder(s) of this Note shall continue in full force and effect to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Laws.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**4.4** **Maximum Interest.** Notwithstanding any other provision of this Note or any other Loan Document, all interest, loan fees, and charges payable by reason of the indebtedness evidenced by this Note shall not exceed the maximum, if any, permitted by applicable Laws. If by virtue of applicable Laws, sums in excess of such maximum would otherwise be payable, then such excess sums shall be construed as having been immediately applied by Lender to the principal balance of this Note when received. If at the time that any such sum is received by Lender the principal balance of this Note has been paid in full, Lender shall promptly refund such sums to Borrower, less any sums due to Lender.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**4.5** **Binding Agreement.** This Note and all provisions hereof shall be binding upon Borrower and all persons claiming under or through Borrower, and shall inure to the benefit of Lender, together with its successors and assigns, including each holder from time to time of this Note.

Captions and headings in this Note are for convenience only and shall be disregarded in construing it.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**4.8** **Waivers.** Borrower hereby waives and renounces for itself, its successors and assigns, all rights to the benefits of any statute of limitations and any moratorium, reinstatement, marshalling, forbearance, valuation, stay, extension, redemption, appraisement, or exemption and homestead laws now provided, or that may hereafter be provided, by applicable Laws against the enforcement and collection of the obligations evidenced by this Note.

*Promissory Note* *page 2*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**4.9** **Costs of Collection.** If this Note is placed in the hands of attorneys for collection or is collected through any legal proceedings, Borrower promises and agrees to pay, in addition to the principal, interest and other sums due and payable hereon, all Legal Expenses incurred by Lender.

No failure to accelerate the indebtedness evidenced hereby, acceptance of a past due installment following the expiration of any cure period provided by this Note, any Loan Document, or applicable Laws, or indulgences granted from time to time shall be construed (i) as a novation of this Note or as a reinstatement of the indebtedness evidenced hereby or as a waiver of the right of acceleration or of the right of Lender thereafter to insist upon strict compliance with the terms of this Note, or (ii) to prevent the exercise of the right of acceleration or any other right granted hereunder, under any of the other Loan Documents, or by applicable Laws. Borrower hereby expressly waives the benefit of any Laws that would produce a result contrary to or in conflict with the foregoing.

2. **<u>Assignment of Rents</u>**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2.1 <u>Assignment</u>. Mortgagor hereby irrevocably, absolutely, presently and unconditionally assigns to Mortgagee all rents, royalties, issues, profits, revenue, income, accounts, proceeds and other benefits of the Property, whether now due, past due or to become due, including all prepaid rents and security deposits (some or all collectively, as the context may require, "***Rents***"). This is an absolute assignment, not an assignment for security only.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2.2 <u>Grant of License</u>. Mortgagee hereby confers upon Mortgagor a license ("***License***") to collect and retain the Rents as they become due and payable, so long as no Event of Default, as defined in <u>Section 6.2</u> below, shall exist and be continuing. If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Mortgagee shall have the right, which it may choose to exercise in its sole discretion, to terminate this License without notice to or demand upon Mortgagor, and without regard to the adequacy of Mortgagee's security under this Mortgage.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2.3 <u>Collection and Application of Rents</u>. Subject to the License granted to Mortgagor under <u>Section 2.2</u> above, Mortgagee has the right, power and authority to collect any and all Rents. Mortgagor hereby appoints Mortgagee its attorney-in-fact to perform any and all of the following acts, if and at the times when Mortgagee in its sole discretion may so choose:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Demand, receive and enforce payment of any and all Rents; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Give receipts, releases and satisfactions for any and all Rents; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Sue either in the name of Mortgagor or in the name of Mortgagee for any and all Rents.

Mortgagee and Mortgagor agree that the mere recordation of the assignment granted herein entitles Mortgagee immediately to collect and receive rents upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, as defined in <u>Section 6.2</u>, without first taking any acts of enforcement under applicable law, such as, but not limited to, providing notice to Mortgagor, filing foreclosure proceedings, or seeking and/or obtaining the appointment of a receiver. Further, Mortgagee's right to the Rents does not depend on whether or not Mortgagee takes possession of the Property as permitted under <u>Subsection 6.3(c)</u>. In Mortgagee's sole discretion, Mortgagee may choose to collect Rents either with or without taking possession of the Property. Mortgagee shall apply all Rents collected by it in the manner provided under <u>Section 6.6</u>. For so long as an Event of Default is continuing while Mortgagee is in possession of all or part of the Property and is collecting and applying Rents as permitted under this Mortgage, Mortgagee and any receiver shall nevertheless be entitled to exercise and invoke every right and remedy afforded any of them under this Mortgage and at law or in equity.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2.4 <u>Mortgagee Not Responsible</u>. Under no circumstances shall Mortgagee have any duty to produce Rents from the Property. Regardless of whether or not Mortgagee, in person or by agent, takes actual possession of the Premises and Improvements, unless Mortgagee agrees in writing to the contrary, Mortgagee is not and shall not be deemed to be:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) A "mortgagee in possession" for any purpose; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Responsible for performing any of the obligations of the lessor under any lease; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Responsible for any waste committed by lessees or any other parties, any dangerous or defective condition of the Property, or any negligence in the management, upkeep, repair or control of the Property; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Liable in any manner for the Property or the use, occupancy, enjoyment or operation of all or any part of it.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2.5 <u>Leasing</u>. Mortgagor shall not accept any deposit or prepayment of rents under the leases for any rental period exceeding one (1) month without Mortgagee's prior written consent.

The parties intend for this Mortgage to create a lien on the Property, and an absolute assignment of the Rents, all in favor of Mortgagee. The parties acknowledge that some of the Property and some or all of the Rents may be determined under applicable law to be personal property or fixtures. To the extent that any Property or Rents may be or be determined to be personal property, Mortgagor as debtor hereby grants Mortgagee as secured party a security interest in all such Property and Rents, to secure payment and performance of the Secured Obligations. This Mortgage constitutes a security agreement under the Uniform Commercial Code of the State in which the Property is located, covering all such Property and Rents.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3.2 <u>Financing Statements</u>. Mortgagor hereby authorizes Mortgagee to file one or more financing statements. In addition, Mortgagor shall execute such other documents as Mortgagee may from time to time require to perfect or continue the perfection of Mortgagee's security interest in any Property or Rents. As provided in <u>Section 5.9</u> below, Mortgagor shall pay all fees and costs that Mortgagee may incur in filing such documents in public offices and in obtaining such record searches as Mortgagee may reasonably require. In case Mortgagor fails to execute any financing statements or other documents for the perfection or continuation of any security interest, Mortgagor hereby appoints Mortgagee as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact to execute any such documents on its behalf. If any financing statement or other document is filed in the records normally pertaining to personal property, that filing shall never be construed as in any way derogating from or impairing this Mortgage or the rights or obligations of the parties under it.

4. **<u>Fixture Filing</u>**.

This Mortgage constitutes a financing statement filed as a fixture filing under Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code in the State in which the Property is located, as amended or recodified from time to time, covering any Property which now is or later may become fixtures attached to the Premises or Improvements. For this purpose, the respective addresses of Mortgagor, as debtor, and Mortgagee, as secured party, are as set forth in the preambles of this Mortgage.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) Any loss sustained by Mortgagor or any third party resulting from Mortgagee's failure to lease the Property, or from any other act or omission of Mortgagee in managing the Property, after an Event of Default, unless the loss is caused by the willful misconduct and bad faith of Mortgagee.

Mortgagor hereby expressly waives and releases all liability of the types described above, and agrees that no such liability shall be asserted against or imposed upon Mortgagee.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Mortgagor agrees to indemnify Mortgagee against and hold it harmless from all losses, damages, liabilities, claims, causes of action, judgments, court costs, attorneys' fees and other legal expenses, cost of evidence of title, cost of evidence of value, and other costs and expenses which it may suffer or incur other than that which was caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Mortgagee:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) In performing any act required or permitted by this Mortgage or any of the other Loan Documents or by law;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Because of any failure of Mortgagor to perform any of its obligations; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) Because of any alleged obligation of or undertaking by Mortgagee to perform or discharge any of the representations, warranties, conditions, covenants or other obligations in any document relating to the Property other than the Loan Documents.

This agreement by Mortgagor to indemnify Mortgagee shall survive the release and cancellation of any or all of the Secured Obligations and the full or partial release of this Mortgage.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Mortgagor shall pay all obligations to pay money arising under this <u>Section 5.9</u> immediately upon demand by Mortgagee. Each such obligation shall be added to, and considered to be part of, the principal of the Note, and shall bear interest from the date the obligation arises at the Default Rate.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5.10 <u>Defense and Notice of Claims and Actions</u>. At Mortgagor's sole expense, Mortgagor shall protect, preserve and defend the Property and title to and right of possession of the Property, and the security of this Mortgage and the rights and powers of Mortgagee created under it, against all adverse claims. Mortgagor shall give Mortgagee prompt notice in writing if any claim is asserted which does or could affect any such matters, or if any action or proceeding is commenced which alleges or relates to any such claim.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5.11 <u>Subrogation</u>. Mortgagee shall be subrogated to the liens of all encumbrances, whether released of record or not, which are discharged in whole or in part by Mortgagee in accordance with this Mortgage or with the proceeds of any loan secured by this Mortgage.

Mortgagee and its agents and representatives shall have the right at any reasonable time upon reasonable notice to enter and visit the Property for the purpose of performing appraisals, observing the Property, taking and removing soil or groundwater samples, and conducting tests on any part of the Property. Mortgagee has no duty, however, to visit or observe the Property or to conduct tests, and no site visit, observation or testing by Mortgagee, its agents or representatives shall impose any liability on any of Mortgagee, its agents or representatives. In no event shall any site visit, observation or testing by Mortgagee, its agents or representatives be a representation that Hazardous Material are or are not present in, on or under the Property, or that there has been or shall be compliance with any law, regulation or ordinance pertaining to Hazardous Material or any other applicable governmental law. Neither Mortgagor nor any other party is entitled to rely on any site visit, observation or testing by any of Mortgagee, its agents or representatives. Neither Mortgagee, its agents or representatives owe any duty of care to protect Mortgagor or any other party against, or to inform Mortgagor or any other party of, any Hazardous Material or any other adverse condition affecting the Property. Mortgagee shall give Mortgagor reasonable notice before entering the Property. Mortgagee shall make reasonable efforts to avoid interfering with Mortgagor's use of the Property in exercising any rights provided in this <u>Section 5.12</u>.

Unless otherwise approved by Mortgagee in writing, all Property that consists of personal property (other than the Books and Records) will be located on the Premises and all Books and Records will be located at Mortgagor's place of business or chief executive office if Mortgagor has more than one place of business.

6. **<u>Accelerating Transfers, Default and Remedies</u>**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6.1 <u>Accelerating Transfers</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) "Accelerating Transfer" means any Transfer not expressly permitted under <u>Section 13.2</u> of the Loan Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Mortgagor acknowledges that Mortgagee is making one or more advances under the Loan Agreement in reliance on the expertise, skill and experience of Mortgagor; thus, the Secured Obligations include material elements similar in nature to a personal service contract. In consideration of Mortgagee's reliance, Mortgagor agrees that Mortgagor shall not make any Accelerating Transfer, unless the transfer is preceded by Mortgagee's express written consent to the particular transaction and transferee. Mortgagee may withhold such consent in its sole discretion. If any Accelerating Transfer occurs, Mortgagee in its sole discretion may declare all of the Secured Obligations to be immediately due and payable, and Mortgagee may invoke any rights and remedies provided by <u>Section 6.3</u> of this Mortgage.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6.2 <u>Events of Default</u>. Mortgagor will be in default under this Mortgage upon the occurrence of an "Event of Default" under the Loan Agreement or any other Loan Document.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6.3 <u>Remedies</u>. At any time after an Event of Default, Mortgagee shall be entitled to invoke any and all of the rights and remedies described below, in addition to all other rights and remedies available to Mortgagee at law or in equity. All of such rights and remedies shall be cumulative, and the exercise of any one or more of them shall not constitute an election of remedies.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) <u>Acceleration</u>. Mortgagee may declare any or all of the Secured Obligations to be due and payable immediately.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) <u>Receiver</u>. Mortgagee shall, as a matter of right, without notice and without giving bond to Mortgagor or anyone claiming by, under or through Mortgagor, and without regard for the solvency or insolvency of Mortgagor or the then value of the Property, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be entitled to have a receiver appointed for all or any part of the Property and the Rents, and the proceeds, issues and profits thereof, with the rights and powers referenced below and such other rights and powers as the court making such appointment shall confer, and Mortgagor hereby consents to the appointment of such receiver and shall not oppose any such appointment. Such receiver shall have all powers and duties prescribed by applicable law, all other powers which are necessary or usual in such cases for the protection, possession, control, management and operation of the Property, and such rights and powers as Mortgagee would have, upon entering and taking possession of the Property under subsection (c) below.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) <u>Entry</u>. Mortgagee, in person, by agent or by court-appointed receiver, may enter, take possession of, manage and operate all or any part of the Property, and may also do any and all other things in connection with those actions that Mortgagee may in its sole discretion consider necessary and appropriate to protect the security of this Mortgage. Such other things may include: taking and possessing all of Mortgagor's or the then owner's Books and Records; entering into, enforcing, modifying or canceling leases on such terms and conditions as Mortgagee may consider proper; obtaining and evicting tenants; fixing or modifying Rents; collecting and receiving any payment of money owing to Mortgagee; completing any unfinished construction; and/or contracting for and making repairs and alterations. If Mortgagee so requests, Mortgagor shall assemble all of the Property that has been removed from the Premises and make all of it available to Mortgagee at the site of the Premises. Mortgagor hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints Mortgagee as Mortgagor's attorney-in-fact to perform such acts and execute such documents as Mortgagee in its sole discretion may consider to be appropriate in connection with taking these measures, including endorsement of Mortgagor's name on any instruments.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) <u>Cure; Protection of Security</u>. Mortgagee may cure any breach or default of Mortgagor, and if it chooses to do so in connection with any such cure, Mortgagee may also enter the Property and/or do any and all other things which it may in its sole discretion consider necessary and appropriate to protect the security of this Mortgage, including, without limitation, completing construction of the improvements at the Property contemplated by the Loan Agreement. Such other things may include: appearing in and/or defending any action or proceeding which purports to affect the security of, or the rights or powers of Mortgagee under, this Mortgage; paying, purchasing, contesting or compromising any encumbrance, charge, lien or claim of lien which in Mortgagee's sole judgment is or may be senior in priority to this Mortgage, such judgment of Mortgagee or to be conclusive as among the parties to this Mortgage; obtaining insurance and/or paying any premiums or charges for insurance required to be carried under the Loan Agreement; otherwise caring for and protecting any and all of the Property; and/or employing counsel, accountants, contractors and other appropriate persons to assist Mortgagee. Mortgagee may take any of the actions permitted under this <u>Subsection 6.3(d)</u> either with or without giving notice to any person. Any amounts expended by Mortgagee under this <u>Subsection 6.3(d)</u> shall be secured by this Mortgage.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) <u>Uniform Commercial Code Remedies</u>. Mortgagee may exercise any or all of the remedies granted to a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code in the State in which the Property is located.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) <u>Foreclosure; Lawsuits</u>. Mortgagee shall have the right, in one or several concurrent or consecutive proceedings, to foreclose the lien hereof upon the Property or any part thereof, for the Secured Obligations, or any part thereof, by any proceedings appropriate under applicable law. Mortgagee or its nominee may bid and become the purchaser of all or any part of the Property at any foreclosure or other sale hereunder, and the amount of Mortgagee's successful bid shall be credited on the Secured Obligations. Without limiting the foregoing, Mortgagee may proceed by a suit or suits in law or equity, whether for specific performance of any covenant or agreement herein contained or in aid of the execution of any power herein granted, or for any foreclosure under the judgment or decree of any court of competent jurisdiction. In addition to the right provided in Subsection 6.3(a), upon, or at any time after the filing of a complaint to foreclose this Mortgage, Mortgagee shall be entitled to the appointment of a receiver of the property by the court in which such complaint is filed, and Mortgagor hereby consents to such appointment.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) <u>Other Remedies</u>. Mortgagee may exercise all rights and remedies contained in any other instrument, document, agreement or other writing heretofore, concurrently or in the future executed by Mortgagor or any other person or entity in favor of Mortgagee in connection with the Secured Obligations or any part thereof, without prejudice to the right of Mortgagee thereafter to enforce any appropriate remedy against Mortgagor. Mortgagee shall have the right to pursue all remedies afforded to a mortgagee under applicable law, and shall have the benefit of all of the provisions of such applicable law, including all amendments thereto which may become effective from time to time after the date hereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) <u>Sale of Personal Property</u>. Mortgagee shall have the discretionary right to cause some or all of the Property, which constitutes personal property, to be sold or otherwise disposed of in any combination and in any manner permitted by applicable law.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) For purposes of this power of sale, Mortgagee may elect to treat as personal property any Property which is intangible or which can be severed from the Premises or Improvements without causing structural damage. If it chooses to do so, Mortgagee may dispose of any personal property, in any manner permitted by Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code of the State in which the Property is located, including any public or private sale, or in any manner permitted by any other applicable law.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) In connection with any sale or other disposition of such Property, Mortgagor agrees that the following procedures constitute a commercially reasonable sale: Mortgagee shall mail written notice of the sale to Mortgagor not later than thirty (30) days prior to such sale. Mortgagee will publish notice of the sale in a local daily newspaper of general circulation. Upon receipt of any written request, Mortgagee will make the Property available to any bona fide prospective purchaser for inspection during reasonable business hours. Notwithstanding, Mortgagee shall be under no obligation to consummate a sale if, in its judgment, none of the offers received by it equals the fair value of the Property offered for sale. The foregoing procedures do not constitute the only procedures that may be commercially reasonable.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) <u>Single or Multiple Foreclosure Sales</u>. If the Property consists of more than one lot, parcel or item of property, Mortgagee may:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Designate the order in which the lots, parcels and/or items shall be sold or disposed of or offered for sale or disposition; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Elect to dispose of the lots, parcels and/or items through a single consolidated sale or disposition to be held or made under or in connection with judicial proceedings, or by virtue of a judgment and decree of foreclosure and sale; or through two or more such sales or dispositions; or in any other manner Mortgagee may deem to be in its best interests (any such sale or disposition, a "Foreclosure Sale;" and any two or more, "Foreclosure Sales").

If Mortgagee chooses to have more than one Foreclosure Sale, Mortgagee at its option may cause the Foreclosure Sales to be held simultaneously or successively, on the same day, or on such different days and at such different times and in such order as Mortgagee may deem to be in its best interests. No Foreclosure Sale shall terminate or affect the liens of this Mortgage on any part of the Property which has not been sold, until all of the Secured Obligations have been paid in full.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6.4 <u>Credit Bids</u>. At any Foreclosure Sale, any person, including Mortgagor or Mortgagee, may bid for and acquire the Property or any part of it to the extent permitted by then applicable law. Instead of paying cash for such property, Mortgagee may settle for the purchase price by crediting the sales price of the property against the following obligations:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) First, the portion of the Secured Obligations attributable to the expenses of sale, costs of any action and any other sums for which Mortgagor is obligated to pay or reimburse Mortgagee under <u>Section 5.9</u> of this Mortgage; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Second, all other Secured Obligations in any order and proportions as Mortgagee in its sole discretion may choose.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6.5 <u>Application of Foreclosure Sale Proceeds</u>. Mortgagee shall apply the proceeds of any Foreclosure Sale in the following manner:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) First, to pay the portion of the Secured Obligations attributable to the expenses of sale, costs of any action and any other sums for which Mortgagor is obligated to reimburse Mortgagee under <u>Section 5.9</u> of this Mortgage;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Second, to pay the portion of the Secured Obligations attributable to any sums expended or advanced by Mortgagee under the terms of this Mortgage which then remain unpaid;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Third, to pay all other Secured Obligations in any order and proportions as Mortgagee in its sole discretion may choose; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Fourth, to remit the remainder, if any, to the person or persons entitled to it.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6.6 <u>Application of Rents and Other Sums</u>. Mortgagee shall apply any and all Rents collected by it, and any and all sums other than proceeds of a Foreclosure Sale which Mortgagee may receive or collect under <u>Section 6.3</u> above, in the following manner:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) First, to pay the portion of the Secured Obligations attributable to the costs and expenses of operation and collection that may be incurred by Mortgagee or any receiver;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Second, to pay all other Secured Obligations in any order and proportions as Mortgagee in its sole discretion may choose; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Third, to remit the remainder, if any, to the person or persons entitled to it.

Mortgagee shall have no liability for any funds which it does not actually receive.

No waiver shall be implied from any delay or failure by Mortgagee to take action on account of any default of Mortgagor. Consent by Mortgagee to any act or omission by Mortgagor shall not be construed as a consent to any other or subsequent act or omission or to waive the requirement for Mortgagee's consent to be obtained in any future or other instance.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) If any of the events described below occurs, that event alone shall not: cure or waive any breach, Event of Default or notice of default under this Mortgage or invalidate any act performed pursuant to any such default or notice; or nullify the effect of any notice of default or sale (unless all Secured Obligations then due have been paid and performed and all other defaults under the Loan Documents have been cured); or impair the security of this Mortgage; or prejudice Mortgagee or any receiver in the exercise of any right or remedy afforded any of them under this Mortgage; or be construed as an affirmation by Mortgagee of any tenancy, lease or option, or a subordination of the lien of this Mortgage.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Mortgagee, its agent or a receiver takes possession of all or any part of the Property in the manner provided in Subsection 6.3(c).

The liability of the original Mortgagor shall not be released or changed if Mortgagee grants any successor in interest to Mortgagor any extension of time for payment, or modification of the terms of payment, of any Secured Obligation. Mortgagee shall not be required to comply with any demand by the original Mortgagor that Mortgagee refuse to grant such an extension or modification to, or commence proceedings against, any such successor in interest.

No merger shall occur as a result of Mortgagee's acquiring any other estate in or any other lien on the Property unless Mortgagee consents to a merger in writing.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7.7 <u>Successors in Interest</u>. The terms, covenants and conditions of this Mortgage shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the heirs, successors and assigns of the parties. However, this <u>Section 7.7</u> does not waive the provisions of <u>Section 6.1</u> above.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7.8 <u>Interpretation</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Whenever the context requires, all words used in the singular will be construed to have been used in the plural, and vice versa, and each gender will include any other gender. The captions of the sections of this Mortgage are for convenience only and do not define or limit any terms or provisions. The word "include(s)" means "include(s), without limitation," and the word "including" means "including, but not limited to."

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The word "obligations" is used in its broadest and most comprehensive sense, and includes all primary, secondary, direct, indirect, fixed and contingent obligations. It further includes all principal, interest, prepayment charges, late charges, loan fees and any other fees and charges accruing or assessed at any time, as well as all obligations to perform acts or satisfy conditions.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) No listing of specific instances, items or matters in any way limits the scope or generality of any language of this Mortgage. The Exhibits to this Mortgage are hereby incorporated in this Mortgage.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7.9 <u>In-House Counsel Fees</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7.10 <u>Waiver of Statutory Rights</u>. To the extent permitted by law, Mortgagor hereby agrees that it shall not and will not apply for or avail itself of any appraisement, valuation, stay, extension or exemption laws, or any so-called "Moratorium Laws," now existing or hereafter enacted, in order to prevent or hinder the enforcement or foreclosure of this Mortgage, but hereby waives the benefit of such laws. Mortgagor for itself and all who may claim through or under it waives any and all right to have the property and estates comprising the Property marshalled upon any foreclosure of the lien hereof and agrees that any court having jurisdiction to foreclose such lien may order the Property sold as an entirety. Mortgagor hereby waives any and all rights of redemption from sale under any judgment of foreclosure of this Mortgage on behalf of Mortgagor and on behalf of each and every person acquiring any interest in or title to the Property of any nature whatsoever, subsequent to the date of this Mortgage. The foregoing waiver of right of redemption is made pursuant to the provisions of applicable law.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7.11 <u>Severability</u>. If any provision of this Mortgage should be held unenforceable or void, that provision shall be deemed severable from the remaining provisions and shall in no way affect the validity of this Mortgage except that if such provision relates to the payment of any monetary sum, then Mortgagee may, at its option, declare all Secured Obligations immediately due and payable.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7.12 <u>Notices</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) THIS MORTGAGE IS GRANTED WITH MORTGAGE COVENANTS, UPON THE STATUTORY CONDITION AND WITH THE STATUTORY POWER OF SALE. This Mortgage is upon the STATUTORY CONDITION, and upon the further condition that all covenants and agreements of, and conditions imposed upon, Mortgagor contained herein and in the other Loan Documents shall be kept and fully performed, for any breach of which, or any event or occurrence which constitutes an Event of Default under this Mortgage or the other Loan Documents, Mortgagee may foreclose this Mortgage and/or to sell, as an entirety or in separate lots or parcels, the Property under the STATUTORY POWER OF SALE, and upon the further condition that upon any Event of Default as aforesaid, Mortgagee shall have, as to the personal property, all the rights and remedies of a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code enacted in The Commonwealth of Massachusetts (the "<u>Uniform Commercial Code</u>"), including, but not limited to, the option to proceed under the law relating to foreclosure of real estate mortgages, and such further remedies as from time to time may hereafter be provided in The Commonwealth of Massachusetts for a secured party, and upon the further condition that all rights of Mortgagee under this Mortgage and the other Loan Documents as to the personal property and the Property may be exercised together or separately and, at Mortgagee's discretion, in connection with the exercise by Mortgagee of its rights under any one or more of this Mortgage and the other Loan Documents.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Upon any Foreclosure Sale, Mortgagee may bid for and purchase the Property and, upon compliance with the terms of sale, may hold, retain and possess and dispose of the Property in its own absolute right without further accountability.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Upon any Foreclosure Sale, Mortgagee may, if permitted by law, and after allowing for costs and expenses of the sale, compensation and other charges, in paying the purchase price, apply any portion or all of the Secured Obligations due under the Loan Documents, in lieu of cash, to the amount which shall, upon distribution of the net proceeds of such sale, be payable thereon, to the extent of the purchase price.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) Mortgagee shall have the power and authority to institute and maintain any suits and proceedings as Mortgagee may deem advisable (i) to prevent any impairment of the Property by any acts which may be unlawful or in violation of the Mortgage, (ii) to preserve or protect its interest in the Property, and (iii) to restrain the enforcement of or compliance with any legislation or other government enactment, rule or order that may be unconstitutional or otherwise invalid, if the enforcement or compliance with such enactment, rule or order might impair the security hereunder or be prejudicial to the interest of Mortgagee.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) Mortgagee has the right to withhold any and all sums for the funding, financing or payment for labor or labor and materials based upon the filing or recording of documents claiming a lien under Massachusetts General Laws, Chapter 254, Section 4.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) At the option of Mortgagee, which may be exercised at any time or from time to time, by written notice to Mortgagor and to any applicable tenant, this Mortgage shall become subject and subordinate, in whole or in part (but not with respect to priority of entitlement to insurance proceeds or condemnation proceeds), to any and all leases of all or any part of the Property upon the execution by Mortgagee and recording thereof, at any time hereafter in the appropriate registry of deeds wherein the Property is situated of a unilateral declaration to that effect.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) This Mortgage is intended to constitute: (i) a mortgage deed under Massachusetts General Laws c. 183, §18, (ii) a security agreement, financing statement and fixture filing under the Uniform Commercial Code, and (iii) a notice of assignment of rents or profits under Massachusetts General Laws c. 183, §4. This Mortgage is also intended to operate and be construed as an absolute present assignment of rents, issues and profits of the Property, Mortgagor hereby agreeing, as provided for in Massachusetts General Laws c. 183, §4 and subject to the license granted to Mortgagor above, that Mortgagee is entitled to receive the rents, issues and profits of the Property prior to an Event of Default and without entering upon or taking possession of the Property.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) To the extent this Mortgage is or could be considered an "open-end mortgage" pursuant to the provisions of Massachusetts General Laws c. 183 § 28B, the principal sum intended to be secured hereby is $67,500,000.00.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(j) All references to "the State in which the Property is located" shall be deemed to mean "The Commonwealth of Massachusetts".

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8.2 <u>Usury</u>. In the event that any interest payment, fee, charge or other payment collected hereunder or under any instrument, document or undertaking secured hereby or entered into in connection herewith is determined, individually or in the aggregate, to be in violation of any applicable usury or other legal limitation or prohibition, such payment shall be deemed, but only to the extent of such violation, to constitute a payment against the principal amount secured hereby, effective as of the date of such payment, and if such application to principal is not sufficient to rectify any such violation, shall be refunded by Mortgagee to Mortgagor upon request.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8.3 <u>Choice of Laws</u>. This Mortgage and all rights and obligations hereunder, including matters of construction, validity and performance, shall be governed by the laws of The Commonwealth of Massachusetts. The Mortgagor submits itself to the jurisdiction of the courts of said Commonwealth for all purposes.

## Exhibit 10.4

**Exhibit 10.4**

**LIMITED RECOURSE GUARANTY AGREEMENT**

**THIS LIMITED RECOURSE GUARANTY AGREEMENT** (this "***Guaranty***") is made effective as of June 18, 2025 by NEW ENGLAND REALTY ASSOCIATES LIMITED PARTNERSHIP, a Massachusetts limited partnership ("***Guarantor***") in favor of **KeyBank National Association**, a national banking association, its successors, participants, and assigns ("***Lender***").

**Recitals**

The following recitals are a material part of this instrument:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;A. Lender is making a loan in the principal sum of $67,500,000.00 (the "**Loan**") to HILL ESTATES NERA, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company ("**Borrower**"), on the date of this Guaranty. Guarantor has a significant financial interest in Lender's making of the Loan to Borrower, and will realize significant financial benefit from the Loan. The Loan is evidenced by a Promissory Note (the "***Note***") of even date herewith in the principal amount of the Loan from Borrower to Lender and is secured in part by a first Mortgage, Assignment of Rents, Security Agreement and Fixture Filing (the "***Security Instrument***") encumbering Borrower's interest in that certain real property and improvements located in Middlesex County, Massachusetts (the "***Property***"). The Note, Security Instrument, and all other documents and instruments existing now or after the date hereof that evidence, secure or otherwise relate to the Loan, including this Guaranty, any assignments of leases and rents, other assignments, security agreements, financing statements, other guaranties, indemnity agreements (including environmental indemnity agreements), letters of credit, or escrow/holdback or similar agreements or arrangements, together with all amendments, modifications, substitutions or replacements thereof, are sometimes herein collectively referred to as the "***Loan Documents***" or individually as a "***Loan Document***." The Loan Documents are hereby incorporated by this reference as if fully set forth in this Guaranty.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;B. Lender has required that Guarantor guaranty to Lender the payment of the Liabilities (as such term is defined in Section 2.1 hereof).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;C. Lender is unwilling to make the Loan to Borrower absent this Guaranty.

**Agreement**

In consideration of Lender's agreement to make the Loan to Borrower and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and legal sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, Guarantor hereby states and agrees as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1. **Request to Make Loan**. Guarantor hereby requests that Lender make the Loan to Borrower and that Lender extend credit and give financial accommodations to Borrower, as Borrower may desire and as Lender may grant, from time to time, whether to the Borrower alone or to the Borrower and others, and specifically to make the Loan described in the Loan Documents.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2. **Guaranty of Liabilities**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2.1 Guarantor hereby absolutely and unconditionally guarantees full and punctual payment and performance when due of the following (collectively, the "***Liabilities*"**):

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) an amount equal to twenty percent (20%) of the principal amount of the Indebtedness as of the occurrence of the Event of Default forming the basis for a demand by Lender hereunder (such amount, the "***Limited Recourse Amount***");

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) all amounts that shall become due and owing to Lender at any time by virtue of or arising out of any of the acts, omissions, circumstances or conditions included in any of the Nonrecourse Carve-Outs (as hereinafter defined), including all renewals or extensions of any amount owing or obligation under the Nonrecourse Carve-Outs, all liability under the Nonrecourse Carve-Outs whether arising under the original Loan or any extension, modification, future advance, increase, amendment or modification thereof, interest due on amounts owing under the Nonrecourse Carve-Outs at the Default Rate specified in the Note, all expenses, including attorneys' fees, incurred by Lender in connection with the enforcement of any of Lender's rights under this Guaranty and all Enforcement Expenses (as hereinafter defined), solely to the extent the same directly relate to amounts or obligations owing under the Nonrecourse Carve-Outs (the foregoing are sometimes hereinafter collectively referred to as the "***Nonrecourse Carve-Out Liabilities***"). As used herein, the term "***Nonrecourse Carve Outs***" means any loss, damage, cost, expense or liability incurred by Lender (including attorneys' fees and expenses and other collection and litigation expenses) arising out of or in connection with any of the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Borrower or any affiliate, agent, or employee of Borrower misappropriates any rents or other Property income or collateral proceeds including insurance or condemnation proceeds or awards;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Borrower or any affiliate, agent, or employee of Borrower fails to apply, pay over or deliver to Lender, as applicable, any tenant security deposits or other refundable deposits in accordance with the terms of the applicable lease or other agreement or the Security Instrument or any other Loan Document;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) Borrower or any affiliate, agent, or employee of Borrower receives rents or other payments from tenants more than one month in advance and fails to apply them in accordance with the Loan Documents;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default (as defined in the Note), Borrower or any affiliate, agent, or employee of Borrower (including Borrower in its capacity as a debtor or debtor in possession in a bankruptcy proceeding) fails either to apply rents or other Property income, whether collected before or after such Event of Default, to the ordinary, customary, and necessary expenses of operating the Property or, upon demand, to deliver such rents or other Property income to Lender;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) waste is committed on the Property during a period while Borrower or any affiliate, agent, or employee of Borrower is in possession thereof ("waste" meaning the diminution in the Property's value resulting from Borrower's grossly negligent or willful failure to manage, maintain, repair and otherwise operate the Property in a commercially reasonable manner);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vi) any damage to the Property or the Lender is caused as a result of the intentional misconduct or gross negligence of Borrower or any affiliate, agent, or employee of Borrower;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vii) any Property is removed in violation of the terms of the Loan Documents and not replaced;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(viii) Borrower fails, in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents, to maintain insurance or to pay taxes, assessments, or other liens or claims that could create liens affecting the Property (unless Lender is escrowing funds therefor and fails to make such payments or has taken possession of the Property following an Event of Default, has received all rents from the Property applicable to the period for which such insurance, taxes or other items are due, and thereafter fails to make such payments);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ix) there is any fraud or material misrepresentation by Borrower or any of its affiliates, any guarantor, any indemnitor or any agent, employee, or other person with actual or apparent authority to make statements or representations on behalf of Borrower, any affiliate of Borrower, or any guarantor or indemnitor ("apparent authority" meaning such authority as the principal knowingly or negligently permits the agent to assume, or which he holds the agent out as possessing);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(x) Borrower fails, following an Event of Default, to deliver to Lender on demand all security deposits, books and records relating to the Property and in the possession or control of Borrower or any affiliate, agent, or employee of Borrower; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(xi) the occupancy of the Property pursuant to an invalid or improper certificate of occupancy or the occupancy of the Property without any permanent certificate of occupancy;

and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) (i) all payments due under the Note, including the repayment of all additional advances of any kind that may be made by Lender to Borrower, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, (ii) any and all renewals or extensions of any such item of indebtedness or obligation or any part thereof; (iii) all obligations and indebtedness of any kind or nature arising under any of the Loan Documents; (iv) any future advances that may be made by Lender related to the Loan or the Property, whether made to protect the security or otherwise, and whether or not evidenced by additional promissory notes or other evidences of indebtedness; (v) all interest due on all of the same; (vi) all expenses, including attorney's fees, incurred by Lender in connection with the enforcement of Lender's rights under this Guaranty and all Administration and Enforcement Expenses. PROVIDED HOWEVER, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Lender shall not demand payment or commence any action to enforce Guarantor's liability under this Section 2.1(b) and Guarantor shall have no liability under this Section 2.1(b) unless and until (A) there shall be any violation of the due on sale or due on encumbrance provisions of the Security Instrument, (B) Borrower shall at any time hereafter make an assignment for the benefit of its creditors, or (C) the Property or any part thereof shall at any time hereafter become property of the estate or an asset in (I) a voluntary bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, liquidation, winding up, or other similar type of proceeding, or (II) an involuntary bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding (other than one filed by Lender) that is not dismissed within ninety (90) days of filing, at which time Lender may immediately commence enforcement of Guarantor's liability hereunder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2.2 Upon the request of Lender, Guarantor shall immediately pay or perform the Liabilities, including, without limitation, the Limited Recourse Amount, when they or any of them become due or are to be paid or performed under the term of any of the Loan Documents. Any amounts received by Lender from any sources and applied by Lender towards the payment of the Liabilities shall be applied in such order of application as Lender may from time to time elect. All Liabilities shall conclusively be presumed to have been created, extended, contracted, or incurred by Lender in reliance upon this Guaranty and all dealings between Borrower and Lender shall likewise be presumed to be in reliance upon this Guaranty.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2.3 For the purpose of this Guaranty, "**Enforcement Expenses**" shall mean all fees and expenses incurred at any time or from time to time by Lender, including legal (whether for the purpose of advice, negotiation, documentation, defense, enforcement or otherwise), accounting, financial advisory, auditing, rating agency, appraisal, valuation, title or title insurance, engineering, environmental, collection agency, or other expert or consulting or similar services, in connection with: (a) any litigation, contest, dispute, suit, arbitration, mediation, proceeding or action (whether instituted by or against Lender, including actions brought by or on behalf of Borrower or Borrower's bankruptcy estate or any indemnitor or guarantor of the Loan or any other person) in any way relating to the Loan or the Loan Documents including in connection with any bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, or receivership proceeding; (b) any attempt to enforce any rights of Lender against Borrower or any other person that may be obligated to Lender by virtue of any Loan Document or otherwise whether or not litigation is commenced in pursuance of such rights; and (c) protection, enforcement against, or liquidation of the Property or any other collateral for the Loan, including any attempt to inspect, verify, preserve, restore, collect, sell, liquidate or otherwise dispose of or realize upon the Loan, the Property or any other collateral for the Loan.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3. **Additional Advances, Renewals, Extensions and Releases**. Guarantor hereby agrees and consents that, without notice to or further consent by Guarantor, Lender may make additional advances with respect to the Loan or the Property, and the obligations of Borrower or any other party in connection with the Loan may be renewed, extended, modified, accelerated or released by Lender as Lender may deem advisable, and any collateral the Lender may hold or in which the Lender may have an interest may be exchanged, sold, released or surrendered by it, as it may deem advisable, without impairing or affecting the obligations of Guarantor hereunder in any way whatsoever.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4. **Waivers.**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4.1 Guarantor hereby waives each of the following: (a) any and all notice of the acceptance of this Guaranty or of the creation, renewal or accrual of any Liabilities, present or future (including any additional advances made by Lender under the Loan Documents); (b) the reliance of Lender upon this Guaranty; (c) notice of the existence or creation of any Loan Document or of any of the Liabilities; (d) protest, presentment, demand for payment, notice of default or nonpayment, notice of dishonor to or upon Guarantor, Borrower or any other party liable for any of the Liabilities; (e) any and all other notices or formalities to which Guarantor may otherwise be entitled, including notice of Lender's granting the Borrower any indulgences or extensions of time on the payment of any Liabilities; and (f) promptness in making any claim or demand hereunder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4.2 No delay or failure on the part of Lender in the exercise of any right or remedy against either Borrower or Guarantor shall operate as a waiver thereof, and no single or partial exercise by Lender of any right or remedy herein shall preclude other or further exercise thereof or of any other right or remedy whether contained herein or in the Note or any of the other Loan Documents. No action of Lender permitted hereunder shall in any way impair or affect this Guaranty.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4.3 Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that Guarantor shall be and remain absolutely and unconditionally liable for the full amount of all Liabilities notwithstanding any of the following, and Guarantor waives any defense or counterclaims to which Guarantor may be entitled, based upon any of the following, in any proceeding (without prejudice to assert the same in a separate cause of action at a later time):

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Any or all of the Liabilities being or hereafter becoming invalid or otherwise unenforceable for any reason whatsoever or being or hereafter becoming released or discharged, in whole or in part, whether pursuant to a proceeding under any bankruptcy or insolvency laws or otherwise; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Lender failing or delaying to properly perfect or continue the perfection of any security interest or lien on any property which secures any of the Liabilities, or to protect the property covered by such security interest or enforce its rights respecting such property or security interest; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Lender failing to give notice of any disposition of any property serving as collateral for any Liabilities or failing to dispose of such collateral in a commercially reasonable manner; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Any other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a defense other than payment in full of the Liabilities.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5. **Guaranty of Payment**. Guarantor agrees that Guarantor's liability hereunder is primary, absolute and unconditional without regard to the liability of any other party. This Guaranty shall be construed as an absolute, irrevocable and unconditional guaranty of payment and performance (and not a guaranty of collection), without regard to the validity, regularity or enforceability of any of the Liabilities.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6. **Guaranty Effective Regardless of Collateral**. This Guaranty is made and shall continue as to any and all Liabilities without regard to any liens or security interests in any collateral, the validity, effectiveness or enforceability of such liens or security interests, or the existence or validity of any other guaranties or rights of Lender against any other obligors. Any and all such collateral, security, guaranties and rights against other obligors, if any, may from time to time without notice to or consent of Guarantor, be granted, sold, released, surrendered, exchanged, settled, compromised, waived, subordinated or modified, with or without consideration, on such terms or conditions as may be acceptable to Lender, without in any manner affecting or impairing the liabilities of Guarantor. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is acknowledged that Guarantor's liability hereunder shall survive any foreclosure proceeding, any foreclosure sale, any delivery of a deed in lieu of foreclosure, and any release of record of the Security Instrument.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7. **Additional Credit**. Credit or financial accommodation may be granted or continued from time to time by Lender to Borrower regardless of Borrower's financial or other condition at the time of any such grant or continuation, without notice to or the consent of Guarantor and without affecting Guarantor's obligations hereunder. Lender shall have no obligation to disclose or discuss with Guarantor its assessment of the financial condition of Borrower.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8. **Rescission of Payments**. If at any time payment of any of the Liabilities or any part thereof is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by Lender upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of Borrower or under any other circumstances whatsoever, this Guaranty shall, upon such rescission, restoration or return, continue to be effective or shall (if previously terminated) be reinstated, as the case may be, as if such payment had not been made.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9. **Additional Waivers**. So long as any portion of the Liabilities remains unpaid or any portion of the Liabilities (or any security therefor) that has been paid to Lender remains subject to invalidation, reversal or avoidance as a preference, fraudulent transfer or for any other reason whatsoever (whether under bankruptcy or non-bankruptcy law) to being set aside or required to be repaid to Borrower as a debtor in possession or to any trustee in bankruptcy, Guarantor irrevocably waives (a) any rights which it may acquire against Borrower by way of subrogation under this Guaranty or by virtue of any payment made hereunder (whether contractual, under the Bankruptcy Code or similar state or federal statute, under common law, or otherwise), (b) all contractual, common law, statutory or other rights of reimbursement, contribution, exoneration or indemnity (or any similar right) from or against Borrower that may have arisen in connection with this Guaranty, (c) any right to participate in any way in the Loan Documents or in the right, title and interest in any collateral securing the payment of Borrower's obligations to Lender, and (d) all rights, remedies and claims relating to any of the foregoing. If any amount is paid to Guarantor on account of subrogation rights or otherwise, such amount shall be held in trust for its benefit and shall forthwith be paid to Lender to be applied to Borrower's obligations secured by the Security Instrument, whether matured or unmatured, in such order as Lender shall determine.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10. **Independent Obligations**. The obligations of Guarantor are independent of the obligations of Borrower, and a separate action or actions for payment, damages or performance may be brought and prosecuted against Guarantor, whether or not an action is brought against Borrower or the security for Borrower's obligations, and whether or not Borrower is joined in any such action or actions. Guarantor expressly waives any requirement that Lender institute suit against Borrower or any other persons, or exercise or exhaust its remedies or rights against Borrower or against any other person, other guarantor, or other collateral securing all or any part of the Liabilities, prior to enforcing any rights Lender has under this Guaranty or otherwise. Lender may pursue all or any such remedies at one or more different times without in any way impairing its rights or remedies hereunder. Guarantor hereby further waives the benefit of any statute of limitations affecting its liability hereunder or the enforcement hereof. If there shall be more than one guarantor with respect to any of the Liabilities, then the obligations of each such guarantor shall be joint and several.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11. **Subordination of Indebtedness of Borrower to Guarantor**. Any indebtedness of Borrower to Guarantor now or hereafter existing is hereby subordinated to the prior payment in full of the Liabilities. Guarantor agrees that following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, until the Liabilities have been paid in full, Guarantor will not seek, accept or retain for Guarantor's own account, any payment (whether for principal, interest, or otherwise) from Borrower for or on account of such subordinated debt. Following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, any payments to Guarantor on account of such subordinated debt shall be collected and received by Guarantor in trust for Lender and shall be paid over to Lender on account of the Liabilities without impairing or releasing the obligations of Guarantor hereunder. Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably agrees that (a) Guarantor will not at any time while the Liabilities remain unpaid, assert against Borrower (or Borrower's estate in the event that Borrower becomes the subject of any case or proceeding under any federal or state bankruptcy or insolvency laws) any right or claim to indemnification, reimbursement contribution or payment for or with respect to any and all amounts Guarantor may pay or be obligated to pay Lender, including the Liabilities, and any and all obligations which Guarantor may perform, satisfy or discharge, under or with respect to the Guaranty, and (b) Guarantor subordinates to the debt now owed by Borrower to Lender all such rights and claims to indemnification, reimbursement contribution or payment that Guarantor may have now or at any time against Borrower (or Borrower's estate in the event that Borrower becomes the subject of any case or proceeding under any federal or state bankruptcy or insolvency laws).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;12. **Claims in Bankruptcy**. Guarantor shall file all claims against Borrower in any bankruptcy or other proceeding in which the filing of claims is required by law upon any indebtedness of Borrower to Guarantor and will assign to Lender all right of Guarantor thereunder.

In all such cases, whether in administration, bankruptcy or otherwise, the person or persons authorized to pay such claim shall pay to Lender the full amount thereof and, to the full extent necessary for that purpose, Guarantor hereby assigns to Lender all of Guarantor's rights to any such payments or distributions to which Guarantor would otherwise be entitled.

**The Hamilton Company announces acquisition of the Hill Estates property in Belmont, MA for 175 million.**

BOSTON - The Hamilton Company today announced it has acquired the Hill Estates property in Belmont, MA - a 396-unit residential community with on-site management and other offices at a campus off Brighton Street in the town's easternmost neighborhood.

The $175 million acquisition closed June 18 in a transaction with the property's long-time owners - the DiGiovanni Family of Belmont. The sale also includes two office properties that are located nearby but off the main Hill Estates campus. Bridge financing was provided by KeyBank.

"This acquisition significantly expands our portfolio of high-quality residential properties to nearly 6,000 units in Greater Boston," said Jameson Brown, Chairman and CEO of The Hamilton Company. "Belmont is one of the most desirable communities in the region, with excellent public amenities and convenient access to public transit and just minutes from Cambridge and downtown Boston."

The Hamilton Company will staff an on-site management office and operate all property management and maintenance functions for the 396 units and all common areas. Residents will also have access to the Company's full range of online tenant services, including online rent payments, maintenance requests, and renter's insurance.

The off-site commercial properties will be marketed and sold by The Hamilton Company as they are not part of the core business and revenue model of the Hill Estates residential community. The company plans to make significant capital improvements to the property including the renovation of all units.
