$______________                                                 January __, 2000

         1. Obligation.  FOR VALUE RECEIVED,  Vertica Software, Inc., a Colorado
corporation  (hereinafter  called the  "Corporation"),  hereby  promises  to pay
_________________      (hereinafter      called      the      "Holder"),      on
____________________________   (the  "Maturity  Date"),  the  principal  sum  of
_________________________________________  Dollars  ($______.00),  together with
accrued  interest on such  principal  sum at the annual  rate of twelve  percent
(12%).

         2. Medium Of Payment.  The principal and accrued  interest on this Note
are  payable  in lawful  money of the United  States of America at the  Holder's
address set forth below,  or at such other address as the Holder hereof may from
time to time designate to the Corporation in writing.

         3. Prepayment.  The Corporation may, upon giving the Holder thirty (30)
days prior written notice, prepay this Note, in whole or in part, at any time.

         4. Extension/Conversion. On or before _______________, 2000, the Holder
shall,  by giving written  notice to the  Corporation  (the "Election  Notice"),
elect to (i) convert the entire principal and accrued interest on this Note into
Common Stock shares of the Corporation at a conversion price equal to 55% of the
closing  sale price of the Common  Stock as reported on the OTCBB on the date of
the  Election  Notice,  (ii)  extend  the  Maturity  Date  of this  Note  for an
additional six (6) months,  or (iii) have the principal and accrued  interest on

such shares,  until the  Corporation  has received this Note from the Holder for
cancellation,  and upon such receipt,  the  Corporation  will promptly issue and
deliver to the Holder a certificate of its Common Stock evidencing the number of
shares  into which this Note will have been  converted.  If the Holder  fails to
give the Election Notice by  ___________,  2000, such failure shall be deemed an
election by the Holder to have the  principal  and accrued  interest on the Note
paid on the original  Maturity  Date. If the Holder elects to convert this Note,
then the Holder shall also be entitled to receive a warrant (the  "Warrant")  to
acquire  that  number  of shares of  Common  Stock of the  Corporation  equal to
twenty-five  percent  (25%) of the  principal  amount of this Note.  The Warrant
shall have an exercise price equal to the closing sale price of the Common Stock
as reported on the OTCBB on the date of this Note.

         5.  Default.  In the event of default in the payment of  principal  and
accrued interest on this Note when due, then the entire  outstanding  balance of
principal and accrued  interest shall become  immediately due and payable at the
option of the Holder of this Note.

         6.  Investment  Representation.  Neither this Note,  the Warrant or the
Common Stock shares  issuable upon the  conversion of this Note or issuable upon
the exercise of the Warrant have been  registered  under the  Securities  Act of
1933,  as  amended  (the  "Securities  Act"),  or  under  any  applicable  state
securities laws.  Holder  acknowledges by acceptance of the Note that (a) he has
acquired  this Note for  investment  and not with a view toward or in connection
with  distribution  thereof;  (b) he has a  pre-existing  personal  or  business
relationship with the Corporation,  or its executive  officers,  or by reason of
his  business or  financial  experience  he has the  capacity to protect his own
interests  in  connection  with the  transaction;  and (c) he is an  "Accredited
Investor"  as such  term  is  defined  under  Rule  501  promulgated  under  the
Securities  Act.  Holder agrees that any shares issuable upon conversion of this
Note or exercise of the Warrant will be acquired for  investment  and not with a
view toward distribution  thereof,  and such shares will not be registered under
the Securities Act and applicable  state  securities  laws, and that such shares
may have to be held  indefinitely  unless they are  subsequently  registered  or
qualified  under the  Securities Act and applicable  state  securities  laws or,
based on an opinion of counsel  reasonably  satisfactory to the Corporation,  an
exemption from such  registration  and  qualification is available.  Holder,  by
acceptance  hereof,  consents  to the  placement  of the  following  restrictive
legend,  or similar  legend,  on each  certificate to be issued to Holder by the
Successor Company in connection with the issuance of such shares:

other securities subject to the foregoing restrictions until the end of said one
hundred eighty (180) day period.

the  Holder  hereof  shall be  entitled  to  receive  all  costs  of  collection
including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees.

         10.  Waiver/Assignment.  The  undersigned  hereby  waives  presentment,
demand,  protest,  and notice of nonpayment or dishonor of this Note.  This Note
may not be  assigned  by the Holder  without  the  Corporation's  prior  written
consent.

         11. Note  Confers No Rights of  Shareholder.  The Holder shall not have
any  rights as a  shareholder  of the  Corporation  with  regard  to the  shares
issuable hereunder prior to actual conversion hereunder.

as follows:

            1. INDENTURE; MORTGAGOR REPRESENTATIVES.

            1.1 Indenture. Concurrently with its execution and delivery to the
Mortgagee, this Mortgage is being assigned, pursuant to the Assignment, to the
Trustee, as trustee for the benefit of the Holders under the Indenture (a copy
of which is available from the Trustee). Pursuant to the terms of the Indenture,
the Servicer is responsible for servicing the Mortgage Loan on behalf of the
Trustee and for the benefit of the Holders under the Indenture. The address of
the Trustee is as shown on the first page of the Assignment. Upon such
assignment, the Trustee shall for all purposes be the sole Mortgagee hereunder
(and all references herein to the Mortgagee shall be deemed to refer to the
Trustee while such assignment is in effect) and the Trustee, or the Servicer on
behalf of the Trustee, shall (i) have the sole and exclusive benefit of and the
right and power to exercise, or to direct the exercise of, all the rights and
remedies of the Mortgagee hereunder, including the right to inspect the
Premises, to receive notices and financial information, to grant or withhold
consents or approvals, to benefit from indemnities, to receive, hold and apply
Proceeds and any Credit Facilities or Eligible Collateral or any other amount or
property provided by the Mortgagor hereunder, and, upon the occurrence and
during the continuance of an Event of Default, to take any action required or
permitted of the Mortgagee, all in the Trustee's own name, and to exercise all
other rights and remedies of the Mortgagee hereunder, (ii) be bound by all the
terms hereof which apply to the Mortgagee, and (iii) except to the extent
otherwise specified herein or in the Indenture, act in a commercially reasonable
manner in making any determination called for of it (without requiring thereby
that any Holder is obligated to act in a commercially reasonable manner) under
this Mortgage or in granting or withholding any approval or consent called for
under or requested pursuant to this Mortgage. Any designation contained herein
of the Mortgagee as attorney-in-fact for any or all of the Mortgagors shall be
deemed to include the Servicer on behalf of the Trustee and for the benefit of
the Holders. With respect to any matter as to which the Mortgagee (and, pursuant
to this Section, the Servicer) is designated as the attorney-in-fact for any or
all of the Mortgagors, such Mortgagors shall execute and deliver to the Trustee,
the Servicer or any agent or representative of any of them, as applicable, such
powers of attorney or other documents or instruments reasonably requested by the
Mortgagee or

                                      -8-
<PAGE>   20

Servicer, as applicable, in order to carry out the purpose of such designation
as attorney-in-fact. The Mortgagor hereby acknowledges the foregoing and agrees
to be bound to the Trustee, upon such assignment, recognizing the Trustee as the
Mortgagee hereunder as if the Trustee were named in this Mortgage as the
Mortgagee. Upon such assignment, the Mortgagor's obligations to the Mortgagee
specified in this Mortgage shall be satisfied by the Mortgagor's tendering full
and timely payment or performance thereof to the Trustee. With respect to
delivery by the Mortgagee of documents and other written material, the Mortgagee
shall have only the obligations expressly set forth herein or in the other
Mortgage Security Documents or in the Indenture. All rights and remedies of the
Trustee as the Mortgagee hereunder, including all indemnities running to the
Mortgagee, shall also operate for the benefit of the Holders as provided in the
Indenture and shall be exercised by the Trustee in accordance with and subject
to the terms and conditions set forth in the Indenture. It is expressly
understood that all or any portion of the amounts due under the Mortgage Notes
may from time to time be repaid on the terms provided herein and therein,
subject in each case to the ability of Vornado Finance to redeem or defease an
equivalent aggregate principal amount of Securities pursuant to the terms of the
Indenture.

            1.2 Mortgagor Representative. The Mortgagor hereby designates and
appoints Union VF LLC as the representative of the Mortgagor (the "Mortgagor
Representative") which shall be and hereby is authorized to make any and all
elections and to grant any and all consents, waivers or approvals and to take
any such other actions as may be required or permitted to be taken by the
Mortgagor under this Mortgage or any other Mortgage Security Document (each a
"Mortgagor Action") for and on behalf of the Mortgagor, and the Mortgagee shall
be entitled to rely on any instruction or request made by the Mortgagor
Representative as if the same had been made by each of the Borrowers and the
Guarantors. In addition, whenever, in this Mortgage, the Indenture or any of the
other Mortgage Security Documents, the Mortgagee is authorized to make any
payment or return any funds or instruments to the Mortgagor without specifying
any particular Borrower or Guarantor, the Mortgagee shall have satisfied its
obligation hereunder and thereunder by delivering such funds or instruments to
the Mortgagor Representative. The Borrower named above shall continue as the
Mortgagor Representative throughout the term of this Mortgage, and any Mortgagor
Action taken by such Mortgagor Representative shall be binding upon and shall

                                      -9-
<PAGE>   21

inure to the benefit of each of the Borrowers and the Guarantors and their
successors until such time as the Borrowers and the Guarantors deliver to the
Mortgagee an Officer's Certificate signed by or on behalf of each of the
Borrowers and the Guarantors notifying the Mortgagee of the appointment of
another Borrower as the replacement Mortgagor Representative. Any Mortgagor
Representative hereunder shall not be released from its obligations under this
Mortgage, nor shall its Mortgaged Property be released from the lien of this
Mortgage, unless the entities that will be Borrowers and Guarantors after such
release have appointed a replacement Mortgagor Representative in accordance with
the foregoing. The Borrowers and Guarantors covenant and agree to maintain the
appointment of a Mortgagor Representative at all times during the term of this
Mortgage, and the Mortgagee shall not be required to accept or act upon any
Mortgagor Action, unless such action is taken by a Mortgagor Representative or
is otherwise evidenced by a written instrument signed by or on behalf of every
Borrower and Guarantor of a Property which has not been released.

            1.3 Mortgagee Consents and Approvals. Whenever, in this Mortgage or
in any other Mortgage Security Document, any consent or approval or other action
may or shall be granted, withheld or otherwise taken by the Mortgagee, such
consent, approval or other action shall be granted or withheld and such other
action may be taken by the Servicer on behalf of the Mortgagee in accordance
with the Servicing Standards (as defined in the Indenture). In deciding whether
to grant or withhold any such consent or approval or to take any such other
action, the Servicer shall be entitled (but not required) to consult with such
counsel, real estate professionals or other Persons as the Servicer may deem
necessary or appropriate and the Mortgagor shall reimburse the Servicer for all
reasonable fees and expenses incurred by the Servicer in connection with any
such consultation.

the Mortgagor from, or reduce any of the Mortgagor's obligations or liabilities
under, or would result in the termination, surrender or assignment of, or the
amendment or modification of, any of the Mortgage Security Documents, or would
impair the validity of any of the Permitted Exceptions, this Mortgage or any of
the other Mortgage Security Documents, or would affect any of the Properties in
any material adverse respect, without the Mortgagee's consent, and any attempt
to do any of the foregoing without such consent shall be of no force and effect.

      Mortgagee that in such Architect's opinion (w) such transactions comply in
      all material respects with all applicable zoning ordinances, (x) such
      transactions and the particular plans developed for the Expansion Space
      shall not adversely affect the utility or operation of the Premises in any
      material adverse respect, (y) any connection to, or contemplated shared
      use of, the common area in order to provide utilities services and access
      to the Expansion Space shall not adversely affect the availability or
      provision of utility services to the Premises in any material adverse
      respect and (z) any such transaction shall not materially reduce the

      enter the expansion parcel and either complete the improvements or
      demolish the uncompleted improvements with no liability to the third-party
      developer, (V) if the construction of such Expansion Space would cause the
      Debt Service Coverage Ratio with respect to such affected Property
      (calculated using the Net Cash Flow and Debt Service allocable to and the
      Allocated Amount for such Property) to be less than the Debt Service
      Coverage Ratio with respect to such affected Property (calculated using
      the Net Cash Flow and Debt Service allocable to and the Allocated Amount

      of the Notes (pursuant to the terms of the Indenture). Mortgagor's
      obligations under clause (V) hereof to so deposit such Gross Revenue shall
      terminate, and Mortgagee shall disburse any amounts so held by Mortgagee,
      at such time as the Debt Service Coverage Ratio with respect to such
      affected Property (calculated using the Net Cash Flow and Debt Service
      allocable to and the Allocated Amount for such Property), for the
      preceding twelve month period shall be equal to or greater than the Debt
      Service Coverage Ratio with respect to such affected Property (calculated
      using the Net Cash Flow and Debt Service allocable to and the Allocated
      Amount for such Property) as of the Closing Date. Any cash proceeds from a
      sale of Expansion Space on a Property that are not used to make capital
      improvements on such Property shall be applied in any manner in which the
      Mortgagor deems appropriate; provided, however, that at least 72% of such
      proceeds shall be applied to make a prepayment on the Mortgage Notes
      pursuant to Section 44(a)(ii) of this Mortgage. The Allocated Amount of
      the applicable Property shall be reduced in the amount of such prepayment.
      Any prepayment made pursuant to this Section 3.2(f) shall be applied to
      the Mortgage Notes in the following order of priority: first, to the Class
      A-1 Mortgage Note until the Class A-1 Mortgage Note has been paid in full;
      second, to the Class A-2 Mortgage Note until the Class A-2 Mortgage Note
      has been paid in full; third, to the Class B Mortgage Note until the Class
      B Mortgage Note has been paid in full; fourth, to the Class C Mortgage
      Note until the Class C Mortgage Note has been paid in full; fifth, to the
      Class D Mortgage Note until the Class D Mortgage Note has been paid in
      full; sixth, to the Class E Mortgage Note until the Class E Mortgage Note
      has been paid in full; and seventh, to the Class F Mortgage Note until the
      Class F Mortgage Note has been paid in full.

                  (ii) In the event that the Mortgagor desires to undertake the
      development of the Expansion Space itself, the Mortgagee shall consent to
      release of the Expansion Space from the lien of this Mortgage, and/or to
      such other actions by the Mortgagor or to the Mortgagee taking such other
      actions as may be reasonably requested by the Mortgagor provided that (I)
      the Architect shall have certified to the Mortgagee that in such
      Architect's opinion (w) such transactions comply in all material respects
      with all applicable zoning ordinances, (x) such transactions and the
      particular plans developed for the Expansion Space shall not adversely
      affect the utility or operation of the Premises (excluding the Expansion
      Space) in any material adverse respect, (y) any connection to, or shared
      use contemplated of, the common area in order to provide utility services
      and access to the Expansion Space shall not adversely affect the
      availability or provision of utility services to the Premises in any
      material adverse respect and (z) any such transaction shall not materially
      reduce the rentable square footage of the Improvements, (II) such anchor
      store, mall store or peripheral store shall join or be subject to the
      agreements binding upon the Property on terms which shall not have a
      material adverse effect on the value or operation of the Property as a
      whole,(III) the Mortgagor delivers an Officers' Certificate stating that
      such transactions and the particular plans developed for the Expansion
      Space do not violate any existing Lease or the parties to such Lease have
      consented thereto, (IV) if the construction of such Expansion Space would
      cause the Debt Service Coverage Ratio with respect to such affected
      Property (calculated using the Net Cash Flow and Debt Service allocable to
      and the Allocated Amount for such Property) to be less than Debt Service
      Coverage Ratio with respect to such affected Property (calculated using
      the Net Cash Flow and Debt Service allocable to and the Allocated Amount
      for such Property) as of the Closing Date, then Mortgagor shall cause all
      Gross Revenue, after payment of Debt Service on the Mortgage Notes and all
      other indebtedness permitted hereunder to be deposited with Mortgagee
      promptly after receipt thereof by Mortgagor, to be held by Mortgagee in a
      segregated, interest-bearing escrow account invested at Mortgagor's
      instructions in Eligible Collateral and to be held in such account until
      an amount equal to the cost of the Expansion Space is so deposited in such
      account and (V) a Rating Agency Confirmation shall have been provided to
      Mortgagee. Mortgagor's obligations

<PAGE>   52

      under clause (IV) hereof to so deposit such Gross Revenue shall terminate,
      and Mortgagee shall disburse any amounts so held by Mortgagee, at such
      time as the Debt Service Coverage Ratio with respect to such affected
      Property (calculated using the Net Cash Flow and Debt Service allocable to
      and the Allocated Amount for such Property) shall be equal to or greater
      than Debt Service Coverage Ratio with respect to such affected Property
      (calculated using the Net Cash Flow and Debt Service allocable to and the
      Allocated Amount for such Property) as of the Closing Date.

                  (iii) In the event that the Mortgagor desires to pursue the
      development of the Expansion Space without the Expansion Space being
      subject to the lien hereof in some manner other than as described in (i)
      or (ii) above but satisfying the conditions set forth in (i) and (ii)
      above for protecting the utility and operation of the affected part of the
      Property and the provisions of Section 19.3 hereof, the Mortgagee shall
      cooperate with the Mortgagor and shall not unreasonably (but may, in its
      discretion), withhold or delay its consent to any other approach to the
      Expansion Space consistent with maintaining the utility and satisfactory
      operation of the Premises in all material respects.

                  (iv) In connection with the development of the Expansion Space
      pursued in any manner, the Mortgagee hereby (i) consents to the

      restrictive covenants or similar agreements affecting title to the
      Premises and (ii) agrees that this Mortgage shall be subordinate to such
      modifications, additional easements, rights of way, restrictive covenants
      or similar agreements, provided in either case that the Mortgagee
      receives, within five (5) days prior to the execution by the Mortgagor of
      such modification, additional easement, right of way, restrictive covenant
      or similar agreement, an Officers' Certificate confirming that such action
      (A) shall not adversely affect the utility or operation of the Premises in
      any material adverse respect and (B) shall not cause the Premises to be in
      violation of any Legal Requirement or result in the loss of any
      certificate of occupancy, provided, however, upon the occurrence and
      during the continuance of a Triggering Event, the

                                      -41-

      downgrade by Moody's of the rating assigned to any Class of the Notes to a
      rating that is less than Investment Grade or the Mortgagor's failure to
      comply with the reporting requirements set forth in Section 18 hereof, any
      modification or creation of such easements, rights of way and similar
      agreements shall be subject to the reasonable approval of the Mortgagee.

Mortgagor's full compliance with and satisfaction of all Legal Requirements in
connection with the development of the Expansion Space and an agreement to
provide to the Mortgagee an updated survey and engineering report of the
Premises upon completion, as appropriate for the action taken.

which title insurance policy shall be dated the Closing Date and redated the
date of recording of this Mortgage and shall insure that this Mortgage is a
valid first priority grant of, and lien on, the Premises, subject only to the
Permitted Exceptions. The issuer of such title insurance shall be one or more
nationally recognized title insurance companies and there shall be reinsurance
and direct access agreements to the extent previously agreed upon between the
Mortgagor and the Initial Purchaser.

liability company it will be, and its managing member will be, a Single Purpose

<PAGE>   58

in entering into any contract, in preparing its financial statements) and will

Security Documents, (iii) the fees and proper disbursements of the Trustee under
the Indenture and expenses of the Trustee in complying with the terms of the

Indenture and expenses of the Servicer in complying with the terms of the

<PAGE>   59

Mortgage Notes and (v) the fees charged by the Rating Agencies in connection
with their ratings surveillance of the Securities. The Mortgagor also will pay

consistent with the Servicing Standards in performing certain of their
obligations under the Indenture and the other Security Documents, each of which
will be an expense as set forth in the Indenture. In addition, Mortgagor agrees

additional servicing compensation an assumption fee in the amount of $5,000 in
connection with the administration of each transfer and assumption pursuant to
Sections 19.1 or 19.2 hereof.

            3.7. Covenants Regarding the Stop & Shop Guaranty. (a) Mortgagor

of this Mortgage except in accordance with clause (e) of this Section 3.7;

            (b) Mortgagor covenants, notwithstanding the release provisions
contained in Section 3.2 or Section 44 hereof, to at all times while any amounts
are outstanding under the Mortgage Notes, keep at least one Bradlees Property
with a Stop & Shop Guaranteed Lease having a remaining term (without exercising
renewal options) that extends beyond the Scheduled Maturity Date subject to the
lien of this Mortgage unless all Bradlees Properties that are subject to the
lien of this Mortgage (or such remaining Bradlees Properties) have been or are
being released in accordance with clause (e) of this Section 3.7;

            (c) Mortgagor covenants that if a Stop & Shop Guaranteed Lease for a
Bradlees Property that is subject to the lien of this Mortgage that has been
allocated all or a portion of the Rental Increase expires pursuant to its terms
prior to the Scheduled Maturity Date, Mortgagor shall reallocate all or such
portion, as the case may be, of such Rental Increase to another Bradlees
Property that has an unexpired Stop & Shop Guaranteed Lease and that is subject
to the lien of the Mortgage. Mortgagor shall have the right at any time to
reallocate all or a portion of the Rental Increase among the Stop & Shop
Guaranteed Leases for

                                      -48-
<PAGE>   60

Bradlees Properties that are subject to the lien of this Mortgage.

            (d) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Mortgage to the
contrary (except Section 3.7(e) below), any reallocation of all or a portion of
the Rental Increase shall result in an adjustment of the Allocated Amount of the
affected Bradlees Properties as follows: (i) the Allocated Amount of the
Bradlees Property to which all or a portion of the Rental Increase is being
allocated shall be increased by $7.38 for every $1 of additional Rental Increase
allocated to the Stop & Shop Guaranteed Lease at such Bradlees Property; (ii)
the Allocated Amount of the Bradlees Property at which all or a portion of the
Rental Increase is being allocated from shall be decreased in an amount which
will allow Mortgagor to obtain a Rating Agency Confirmation; and (iii) if no
Rating Agency Confirmation is obtained, there shall be no decrease in the
Allocated Amount of the Bradlees Property at which all or a portion of the
Rental Increase is being allocated from.

            (e) If (i) the Mortgagor obtains a Release of a Bradlees Property
which contains a Stop & Shop Guaranteed Lease which has all or a portion of the
Rental Increase allocated to it, (ii) the Rental Increase with respect to such
Bradlees Property is not (in connection with such Release) being reallocated
pursuant to (c) above, and (iii) Mortgagor has paid the amount required pursuant
to this Mortgage in order to obtain such Release of such Bradlees Property, the
portion of Rental Increase allocated to the Stop & Shop Guaranteed Lease at such
Bradlees Property being Released may be reallocated, in accordance with the
terms of the Stop & Shop Guaranty, to a Stop & Shop Guaranteed Lease at any
Bradlees Property whether or not such Bradlees Property is subject to the lien
of this Mortgage (and if such Bradlees Property is subject to the lien of this
Mortgage there shall be no adjustment in the Allocated Amount with respect to
such Bradlees Property as a result of such reallocation or any further
reallocation of such portion of the Rental Increase).

            (f) Mortgagor covenants that it will not transfer its right under
the Stop & Shop Guaranty to reallocate all or any portion of the Rental Increase
among the Stop & Shop Guaranteed Leases unless all Bradlees Properties that are
subject to the lien of this Mortgage (or such remaining Bradlees Properties)
have been (or are being at the time of such transfer) released in accordance
with clause (e) of this Section 3.7.

paid by Mortgagor, as tenant, under and pursuant to the provisions of the Ground
Leases on or before the date on which such rent or other charge is due, (ii) use
all reasonable efforts to perform and observe, or cause to be performed and
observed, all of the material terms, covenants and conditions of the Ground
Leases, to be performed and observed by Mortgagor as tenant thereunder, prior to

written consent, (i) surrender any of the leasehold estates created by the
Ground Leases or terminate or cancel any of the Ground Leases, (ii) modify,
change, supplement, alter or amend any of the Ground Leases, in any respect,
either orally or in writing, in any manner that materially impairs the
collateral value of any of the leaseholds created by the Ground Leases or in any
manner that would be materially adverse to Mortgagee. Mortgagor hereby assigns
to Mortgagee, as further security for the payment and performance of the Secured
Obligations and observance of the terms, covenants and conditions of this
Mortgage, all of the rights, privileges and prerogatives of Mortgagor, as tenant
under the Ground Leases and to the extent permitted thereunder, following the
occurrence of an Event of Default thereunder, to surrender the leasehold estates
created by the Ground Leases or to terminate, cancel, modify, change,
supplement, alter or amend the Ground Leases, and, to the extent permitted under
the Ground Leases, any such surrender of the leasehold estates created by the
Ground Leases or termination, cancellation, modification, change, supplement,
alteration or amendment of the Ground Leases not permitted pursuant to the
foregoing terms of this Section 3.7(b) shall be void and of no force and effect.

            (c) Mortgagor hereby represents and warrants that:

            (i) the Ground Leases permit the interest of each of the lessees
      thereunder to be encumbered by this Mortgage and do not restrict the use
      of the related Property by such lessee, its successors or assigns in a

                                      -50-
<PAGE>   62

      manner that would materially adversely affect the security provided by
      this Mortgage;

            (ii) the Ground Leases are not subject to any liens or encumbrances
      superior to, or of equal priority with, this Mortgage (other than the
      related ground lessor's fee interest); there is no mortgage or Lien
      encumbering the related ground lessor's fee interest (other than this
      Mortgage or, if any such mortgage or Lien exists, it is subordinate to the
      Lien held by Mortgagee under this Mortgage), and the Ground Leases shall
      remain prior to any mortgage or other Lien upon the related fee interests
      that may hereafter be granted; and

            (iii) on the date hereof, the Ground Leases are in full force and
      effect and no default has occurred under the Ground Leases nor, to the
      best of Mortgagor's knowledge, is there any existing condition which, but
      for the passage of time or the giving of notice, would result in a default
      under the terms of the Ground Leases.

            4. MAINTENANCE AND REPAIRS, SHORING. The Mortgagor will keep, or
cause to be kept, the Premises and the parking areas, sidewalks, curbs and
streets and ways located on the Land and all other means of access to the
Premises in good and clean order and condition such that the utility and
operation of the Premises will not be affected in any material adverse respect,
subject to ordinary wear and tear, and, subject to Excusable Delays and the
provisions set forth in this Mortgage with respect to damage or destruction
caused by fire or other casualty or by a Taking, the Mortgagor will promptly
make or cause to be made all necessary or appropriate repairs, replacements and
renewals thereof (which if not made would affect the utility or operation of the
Premises in any material adverse respect), whether interior or exterior,
structural or nonstructural, ordinary or extraordinary. All repairs and
replacements shall consist of materials which are compatible with the existing
Improvements and installed in a good and workmanlike manner. The Mortgagor will
do or will use reasonable efforts to cause others to do (where such is the
responsibility of a third party), both to the extent permitted by applicable
law, all shoring of foundations and walls (i) of any Improvements or (ii) of the
ground adjacent thereto, and every other act necessary or appropriate for the
preservation and safety of the Premises by reason of or in connection with any
excavation or other building operation upon the Land or any adjoining property,
whether or not

                                      -51-
<PAGE>   63

the Mortgagor or any other Person shall, by any Legal Requirement, be required
to take such action or be liable for failure to do so. Subject (to the extent
applicable) to the provisions of Article 12 relating to permitted contests, the
Mortgagor will not do or permit any act or thing which might affect the utility
or operation of the Properties or any part thereof in any material adverse
respect, or commit or permit any waste of the Properties or any part thereof.

            5. UTILITY SERVICES. Subject to the provisions of Article 12 hereof,
the Mortgagor will pay or cause to be paid when due all charges for all public
or private utility services, all public or private highway services, all public
or private communication services and all sprinkler systems and protective
services at any time rendered to or in connection with the Properties or any
part thereof and which are incurred by or on behalf of the Mortgagor.

            6. NO CLAIMS AGAINST MORTGAGEE. Nothing contained in this Mortgage
shall constitute any consent or request by the Mortgagee, express or implied,
for the performance of any labor or services or the furnishing of any materials
or other property in respect of the Properties or any part thereof, nor as
giving the Mortgagor any right, power or authority to contract for or permit the
performance of any labor or services or the furnishing of any materials or other
property in such fashion as would permit the making of any claim against the
Mortgagee in respect thereof or any claim that any lien based on the performance
of such labor or services or the furnishing of any such materials or other
property is prior to the interest of the Mortgagee under this Mortgage.

            7. INDEMNIFICATION BY THE MORTGAGOR. Subject to the provisions of
Article 38 hereof and Section 6.1 of the Indenture, the Mortgagor will protect,
indemnify and save harmless the Mortgagee (which shall include the Trustee upon
execution and delivery of the Assignment) the Master Servicer, the Special
Servicer and the Holders (collectively, the "Indemnified Parties") from and
against: all liabilities, obligations, claims, damages, penalties, causes of
action, costs and expenses (including all reason able attorneys' fees and
expenses) imposed upon or incurred by or asserted against the Indemnified
Parties or any of the Properties (without, as to both, the wilful misconduct or
gross negligence of any of them) by reason of the occurrence or existence of any
of the following (to the extent the insurance proceeds payable on account of the
following and received by the Mortgagee shall be inadequate) prior to the
payment in full of the Mortgage Notes and the satisfaction

                                      -52-
<PAGE>   64

of all conditions for the satisfaction and release or defeasance of this
Mortgage: (a) ownership or possession of the Mortgagor's interest in the
Properties, or any interest therein, or receipt of any rent or other sum
therefrom, (b) any accident, injury to or death of any Persons or loss of or
damage to property occurring on or about the Premises or any part thereof or the
adjoining parking areas, sidewalks, curbs, vaults and vault space, if any,
streets or ways, (c) any use, non-use or condition of the Premises or any part
thereof or the adjoining parking areas, sidewalks, curbs, streets or ways,
including claims or penalties arising from violation of any Legal Requirement or
Insurance Requirement, as well as any claim based on any patent or latent
defect, whether or not discoverable by the Mortgagee, any claim the insurance as
to which is inadequate, and any claim in respect of any adverse environmental
impact or effect, (d) any failure on the part of the Mortgagor to perform or
comply with any of the terms of this Mortgage, any Lease or any other Mortgage
Security Document to which it is a party, (e) any performance of any labor or
services or the furnishing of any materials or other property in respect of the
Property or any part thereof, (f) any negligence or tortious act or omission on
the part of the Mortgagor or any of its agents, contractors, servants,
employees, sublessees, licensees or invitees, (g) any contest referred to in
Article 12, (h) the presence at or under the Premises or the migration from or
release upon the Premises of any pollutant or hazardous or toxic substance,
waste or material or oil or petroleum product, in violation of any Legal
Requirement, or (i) breach of the covenants contained in Section 3.1. The
Indemnified Party shall give notice to the Mortgagor of any claims, liabilities,
obligations, damages, penalties, costs or causes of action for which the
Indemnified Party believes it is entitled to indemnification hereunder promptly
upon its discovery of the action or event giving rise to such claim, but the
failure of such Indemnified Party to provide such notice shall neither cause the
forfeiture of the right to receive indemnity hereunder nor limit such right
except to the extent, if any, that the Mortgagor is prejudiced by the failure of
the Indemnified Party to promptly give such notice. Any amounts payable under
this Section to the Indemnified Parties which are not paid within ten Business
Days after written demand therefor by the Indemnified Parties, setting forth in
reasonable detail the amount of such demand and the basis therefor, shall bear
interest from the date of demand until paid at the Default Rate, and shall be
secured by this Mortgage. In case any action, suit or proceeding is brought
against the Indemnified Parties by reason of any such occurrence, the Mortgagor,
upon the request of the Indemnified Parties, will (or at the option

                                      -53-
<PAGE>   65

of the Mortgagor, the Mortgagor may) at the Mortgagor's expense resist and
defend such action, suit or proceeding or will cause the same to be resisted and
defended by counsel for the insurer of the liability or by counsel selected by
the Mortgagor (unless reasonably disapproved by the Indemnified Parties). So
long as the Mortgagor is resisting and defending such action, suit or proceeding
as provided above in a prudent and commercially reasonable manner, none of the
Indemnified Parties shall be entitled to settle such action, suit or proceeding
or claim the benefit of this Article 7 with respect to such action, suit or
proceeding (including the right to reimbursement of such Indemnified Parties'
counsel fees and expenses) and the Indemnified Parties agree that they will not
settle any such action, suit or proceeding without the consent of the Mortgagor;
provided that if the Mortgagor is not diligently defending such action, suit or
proceeding in a prudent and commercially reasonable manner as provided above,
the Mortgagee or any Holder may settle such action, suit or proceeding subject
only to the consent of the Mortgagor, which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld or delayed, and claim the benefit of this Article 7 with respect to
settlement of such action, suit or proceeding.

            8. INSPECTION. The Mortgagee and its authorized representatives may
at all reasonable times and upon reason able notice and accompanied by an agent
of the Mortgagor enter and examine each of the Properties, subject to the rights
of tenants, and will use reasonable efforts not to interfere with operation of
the Properties. The Mortgagee shall not inspect the Premises on other than a
Business Day except in the case of an emergency. The Mortgagee shall not have
any duty to make any such inspection and shall not have any liability or
obligation for making or not making any such inspection.

            9. PAYMENT OF IMPOSITIONS, ETC. Subject to the provisions of Article
12 relating to permitted contests, the Mortgagor will pay, or cause to be paid,
before any fine, penalty, interest or cost may be added for such nonpayment, all
real estate taxes, assessments, fees, taxes on rents or rentals, and other
governmental charges that may be levied or assessed against the Properties or
the Mortgagor with respect to the Properties or rents therefrom or which become
liens upon the Properties (collectively, "Impositions"). The Mortgagor shall not
be required to pay any income, excess profits or revenue tax, excise tax or
inheritance tax, gift tax, franchise tax, corporation tax, capital levy, estate
succession or other similar tax or charge that may be payable by or chargeable
to the Mortgagee, any interest,

                                      -54-
<PAGE>   66

fines, costs, additions to tax or penalties in respect thereof, unless such tax
is imposed, levied or assessed in substitution for any Impositions that the
Mortgagor is required to pay pursuant to this Article 9 as set forth in Article
45 hereof.

            10. COMPLIANCE WITH LEGAL AND INSURANCE REQUIREMENTS, INSTRUMENTS.
(a) Subject to the provisions of Article 12 relating to permitted contests, the
Mortgagor will promptly, subject to Excusable Delays, (i) comply, or cause
compliance, with all Legal Requirements and Insurance Requirements before the
expiration of any applicable extension or grace period, whether or not
compliance therewith shall require structural changes in the Improvements or
interfere with the use and enjoyment of the Properties or any part thereof, (ii)
procure, maintain and comply with, all permits, licenses and other
authorizations required by Legal Requirements to be complied with for any use
then being made of the Premises or any part thereof, and for the proper
operation and maintenance of the Improvements and the Equipment or any part
thereof, and (iii) comply with applicable duties or obligations under any
instruments of record at the time in force binding upon, and enforceable
against, the Mortgagor or the Properties or any part thereof; provided that it
shall not be a Default hereunder if it shall be the obligation of a Tenant to
comply with any Legal Requirement, procure, maintain or comply with any such
permit, license or other authorization or comply with such duties or obligations
so long as the Mortgagor promptly after receiving actual notice of any
noncompliance commences and diligently pursues its rights against such Tenant
and uses its diligent efforts to cause such Tenant to comply with such Legal
Requirement or maintain or comply with such permit, license or other
authorization or comply with such duties or obligations within a reasonable time
and the failure to comply with the requirement in question does not subject the
Mortgagee to any of the risks described in clause (b) or (c) of Article 12
hereof and does not impair the validity of any insurance required to be
maintained by the Mortgagor under Article 13 hereof or the right to full payment
of any claims thereunder. The Mortgagor shall pay all fines, penalties, interest
and costs imposed as a result of any failure of the Mortgagor to perform its
obligations under this Article 10.

            (b) The Mortgagor covenants and agrees (i) to perform punctually all
material obligations and agreements to be performed by it as lessor under any
Lease or under any Permitted Exception or any management agreement, such that
there will be no material and adverse impairment of the

                                      -55-
<PAGE>   67

value of any of the Properties or the Mortgagee's interest under this Mortgage,
and (ii) to do all things necessary or appropriate in the ordinary course of its
business, to compel performance by each other party to each of such instruments
of such other party's obligations and agreements thereunder. The Mortgagor will
maintain the validity, perfection, priority and effectiveness of this Mortgage
and the other Mortgage Security Documents, and will not take any action, will
not permit action to be taken by others and will not omit to take any action,
nor, except as permitted by Section 3.2(f) or Section 20 hereof, will the
Mortgagor give any notice, approval or consent or exercise any rights under or
in respect of any Lease or any of such other instruments, which action,
omission, notice, approval, consent or exercise of rights would release any
Tenant or other party from, or reduce any Tenant's or any other party's
obligations or liabilities under, or would result in the termination, surrender
or assignment of, or the amendment or modification of in any material adverse
respect, or would impair the validity of, any Lease, any of such other
instruments, this Mortgage or any of the other Mortgage Security Documents
(other than as expressly permitted by Section 3.2(f) or Section 20 hereof), if
any of the foregoing would affect any of the Properties in any material adverse
respect, without the prior written consent of the Mortgagee, and any attempt to
do any of the foregoing without such consent shall be of no force and effect.

            (c) The Mortgagor represents that it has not received any written
notice of any violation which remains uncured, and that it has no actual
knowledge, of any material respect in which it or the Premises is, on the date
hereof, in violation of any Legal Requirement (including violations with respect
to the presence, use, storage or handling of any Hazardous Substances released
upon or migrating from any of the Properties) or Insurance Requirement or of any
agreement binding upon the Mortgagor or any of the Properties that has not been
disclosed to the Rating Agencies and the Mortgagee.

            11. LIENS. Subject to the provisions of Article 12 relating to
permitted contests and Section 19.3 relating to permitted indebtedness, the
Mortgagor will not directly or indirectly create or permit or suffer to be
created or to remain, and will discharge or promptly cause to be bonded or
discharged by bonding (in the form of Cash or a Letter of Credit), payment,
final order of a court of competent jurisdiction or otherwise, but in any event
within forty-five Business Days after receiving written notice of the filing
thereof, any mortgage, deed of trust, lien,

                                      -56-
<PAGE>   68

encumbrance or charge upon, pledge of, or conditional sale or other title
retention agreement with respect to, the Properties or any part thereof, other
than the Permitted Exceptions.

            12. PERMITTED CONTESTS. Anything to the contrary contained herein
notwithstanding, the Mortgagor at its expense may contest, by appropriate legal,
administrative or other proceedings conducted in good faith and with due
diligence, the amount or validity or application, in whole or in part, of any
Imposition or lien therefor or any Legal Requirement or Insurance Requirement or
any taxes, assessments, charges or other amounts required to be paid pursuant to
the provisions of Section 3.5 or Article 5 hereof, or the application of any
instrument of record affecting any of the Properties or any part thereof (other
than the Mortgage Security Documents) or any claims or judgments of mechanics,
materialmen, suppliers or vendors or any lien therefor, and may withhold payment
of the same pending such proceedings if permitted by law; provided that (a) in
the case of any Impositions or lien therefor or any claims or judgments of
mechanics, materialmen, suppliers or vendors or any lien therefor, such
proceedings shall suspend the collection thereof from the Mortgagor, the
Mortgagee and the affected Property, (b) neither such Property nor any part
thereof or interest therein would be in any danger of being sold, forfeited or
lost if the Mortgagor pays the amount or satisfies the condition being
contested, and the Mortgagor would have the opportunity to so pay or satisfy,
and shall do so, if required, in the event of the Mortgagor's failure to prevail
in the contest, (c) in the case of an Insurance Requirement, the failure of the
Mortgagor to comply there with shall not impair the validity of any insurance
required to be maintained by the Mortgagor under Article 13 or the right to full
payment of any claims thereunder, (d) in the case of taxes, if an amount can be
contested without being paid, the Mortgagor shall escrow with the Mortgagee (to
be held and invested by the Mortgagee in accordance with Section 6.14 of the
Indenture) the amount being contested for so long as such amount is due and
payable and unpaid, (e) in the case of any service described in Article 5, any
contest or failure to pay will not result in a discontinuance of any such
service, (f) in the case of any instrument of record affecting any Property or
any part thereof, the contest or failure to perform under any such instrument
shall not result in the placing of any lien on such Property or any part thereof
unless such lien is bonded or otherwise discharged in accordance with Section 11
and (g) except to the extent the Mortgagor has provided sufficient Cash, Credit
Facility or Eligible Collateral

                                      -57-
<PAGE>   69

therefor, neither the failure to pay or perform any obligation which the
Mortgagor is permitted to contest under this Section 12 nor an adverse
determination of any such contest shall result in a material adverse effect on
the utility, value or operation of any of the Properties.

            13. INSURANCE.

            13.1. Risks to be Insured. The Mortgagor will maintain or cause to

public liability insurance and workers' compensation insurance, provide that all
Proceeds thereunder shall be payable to the Mortgagee pursuant to a standard
first mortgagee endorsement, without contribution, and that adjustment and
settlement of any material loss shall be subject to the reasonable approval of
the Mortgagee; (c) include effective waivers by the insurer of all claims for
insurance premiums against all loss payees, additional insureds and named

reasonable rates, all rights of subrogation against any loss payee, additional

continue any insurance upon failure of the Mortgagor to pay premiums when due,
upon the insolvency of the Mortgagor or through foreclosure or other transfer of
title to the Property; (e) except in the case of public liability and workers'
compensation insurance, provide that any Proceeds shall be payable to the
Mortgagee and that the insurance shall not be impaired or invalidated by virtue
of (i) any act, failure to act, negligence of, or violation of declarations,
warranties or conditions contained in such policy by the Mortgagor, the
Mortgagee or any other named insured, additional insured or loss payee, except
for the willful misconduct of the Mortgagee knowingly in violation of the
conditions of such

hazardous than permitted by the terms of the policy, (iii) any foreclosure or
other proceeding or notice of sale relating to the insured properties or (iv)

policies are satisfied); (f) be subject to a deductible, if any, not greater in
any material respect, in proportion to the coverage maintained, than the
deductible applicable under such coverage on the date of this Mortgage; and (g)

or Eligible Collateral therefor, provide that if all or any part of such policy
shall be cancelled or terminated, or shall expire, the insurer will forthwith
give notice thereof to each named insured, additional insured and loss payee and
that no cancellation, termination, expiration, reduction in amount of, or
material change (other than an increase) in, coverage thereof shall be effective
until at least thirty days after receipt by each named insured, additional
insured and loss payee of written notice thereof.

            13.3. Certificates. The Mortgagor will deliver to the Mortgagee on
or prior to the Closing Date certificates setting forth in reasonable detail the
material terms (including any applicable notice requirements) of all insurance
policies that the Mortgagor is required to maintain hereunder, from the
respective insurance companies that issued such policies. The Mortgagor will

of any insurance policy covering any part of the Premises required to be
maintained by the Mortgagor hereunder, a certificate with respect to such
changed or renewed insurance policy certified by the insurance company issuing
such policy, in the same form and containing the same information as the
certificates required to be delivered by the Mortgagor pursuant to the first
sentence of this Section 13.3 and stating that all premiums then due thereon
have been paid to the applicable insurers and that the same are in full force
and effect (or if such certificate and report shall not be obtainable by the
Mortgagor, the Mortgagor may deliver an Officer's Certificate to such effect in

cancellation of any insurance policy which the Mortgagor is required to maintain

effective no later than the date of the expiration, termination or cancellation
of the previous policy, and shall deliver to the Mortgagee a certificate in
respect of such policy or policies in the same form and (i) containing the same
information as the certificates required to be delivered by the Mortgagor
pursuant to the first sentence of Section 13.3, or a copy of the binding
commitment for such policy or policies and (ii) confirming that such policy
complies with all the requirements of Section 13.1.

            13.5. Reports of Insurance Broker. Within 90 days following the end

13.4, the Mortgagor shall deliver to the Mortgagee a report from a reputable and
experienced insurance broker or from the insurer setting forth the particulars
as to all insurance obtained by the Mortgagor pursuant to this Article 13 and
then in effect and stating that all premiums then due thereon have been paid to
the applicable insurers, that the same are in full force and effect and that, in
the opinion of such insurance broker or insurer, such insurance otherwise
complies in all material respects with the requirements of this Article 13 (or
if such report shall not be available after the Mortgagor shall have used its
reasonable efforts to provide the same, the Mortgagor will deliver to the
Mortgagee an Officers' Certificate containing the information to be provided in
such report).

            13.6. Separate Insurance. The Mortgagor will not take out separate
insurance concurrent in form or contributing in the event of loss with that

            14. ALTERATIONS AND ADDITIONS, ETC. (a) The Mortgagor will not make
or permit any demolition, alteration, installation, addition, improvement,
decoration or new construction (excluding Expansion Space) (an "Alteration") to
the Premises of any Property unless undertaken in accordance with the applicable
provisions of this Mortgage, the Mortgage Security Documents, the Reciprocal
Operating Agreements and the Leases and unless no Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing or shall occur as a result of such action (except in
the case that the Alteration is required to cure the Event of

                                      -60-
<PAGE>   72

Default). Any Alteration which involves an estimated cost of more than
$1,000,000 shall be conducted under the supervision of an Architect and, if to
be undertaken by Mortgagor, shall be undertaken only after ten days after there
shall have been filed with the Mortgagee, for information purposes only and not
for approval by the Mortgagee, detailed plans and specifications and cost
estimates therefor, prepared by such Architect. Such plans and specifications
may be revised at any time and from time to time provided that material
revisions of such plans and specifications are delivered to the Mortgagee, for
information purposes only, together with the written approval thereof by such
Architect. All work done in connection with any Alteration shall be performed
with due diligence in a good and workmanlike manner, all materials used in
connection with any Alteration shall be not less than the standard of quality of
the materials currently used at the Premises and all work shall be performed and

paid for by the Mortgagor or the Tenant performing the Alteration, subject to
the Mortgagor's right to contest any amount claimed to be due in accordance with
the provisions in Article 12 of this Mortgage.

            (b) The Mortgagor may make, or cause or permit to be made, without
the prior consent of the Mortgagee, Alterations to the Premises which would not
materially and adversely affect the fair market value of any of the Properties
or materially and adversely affect the ability of the Mortgagor to pay its
obligations when due under the Mortgage Notes. Any other Alterations shall
require the prior consent of the Mortgagee.

            (c) Builder's risk insurance (in completed value form, with, if
applicable, an endorsement for off-site storage of materials) and public
liability insurance, including bodily injury and property damage liability and
comprehensive general liability insurance in accordance with clause (b) of
Exhibit E hereto, shall be maintained or caused to be maintained by the
Mortgagor at all times during which any Alteration estimated by the Mortgagor to
cost more than $1,000,000 is in progress. The insurance provided for in this
Section 14(c) shall be in addition to the insurance required to be maintained
pursuant to clauses (a) and (b) of Exhibit E hereto and may be effected by an
appropriate endorsement, if obtainable, upon the policy or policies of insurance
referred to in Section 13.1 hereof. All insurance provided for in this Section
14(c) shall be effected under a

                                      -61-
<PAGE>   73

valid and enforceable policy or policies issued by insurers which meet the
requirements set forth in Exhibit E hereto, and, prior to the commencement of
any Alteration which is reasonably estimated by the Mortgagor to cost more than
$1,000,000, the Mortgagor will furnish to the Mortgagee certificates in respect
of such insurance in the form described in the first sentence of Section 13.3
hereof and either a report of an insurance broker or an Officers' Certificate
containing a statement of the insurance effected by the Mortgagor pursuant to
this Section 14(c) and then in force and stating that the insurance then in
force complies with the covenants in this Section 14(c).

            (d) No Alteration shall be performed by or on behalf of the
Mortgagor at any of the Properties if the costs thereof, when combined with the
costs of any other Alterations at another of the Properties then outstanding, as
reasonably estimated by an Architect, which are due and payable and unpaid
exceed the Threshold Amount (taking into account any other Alterations being
undertaken by a Mortgagor at the time and/or collateralized by Mortgagor
pursuant to this subsection (d)) unless (1) (x) Cash, (y) a Credit Facility
and/or (z) Eligible Collateral in an amount not less than the excess of (A) the
lesser of (I) such due and payable and unpaid costs and (II) the Architect's
estimate of the cost, if work on the Alterations were to be terminated on such
date, to restore the Premises to the extent necessary so that, as restored,
there would be no material adverse effect on the value of the Premises as a
whole over (B) the Threshold Amount has been provided to Mortgagee to ensure the
completion of such Alterations or (2) Mortgagor obtains a construction bond
covering the cost of the Alteration (as reasonably determined by the Mortgagor,
in consultation with a licensed or registered architect or engineer) from an
entity having a long-term unsecured debt rating of at least AAA from Moody's and
AAA from DCR, or, if not rated by DCR, then an equivalent rating by one
additional NRSRO or (iii) obtains a completion guaranty from an entity having a
long-term unsecured debt rating of at least AAA from Moody's and AAA from DCR or
if not so rated by DCR than an equivalent rating by one additional NRSRO. Costs
which are subject to retainage shall be treated as due and payable and unpaid
from the date they would be due and payable but for their characterization as
subject to retainage. In the event that any Alteration shall be made in
conjunction with any Restoration with respect to which the Mortgagor shall be
entitled to withdraw Proceeds pursuant to Section 15.2 hereof, the amount of the
Cash, Credit Facility or Eligible Collateral to be furnished pursuant hereto
need not exceed the aggregate cost of such

                                      -62-
<PAGE>   74

Restoration and such Alteration (as estimated by the Architect) less the sum of
the amount of any Proceeds which the Mortgagor may be entitled to withdraw
pursuant to Section 15.2 hereof and the Threshold Amount (adjusted as described
above). The Architect shall deliver to the Mortgagee a schedule setting forth
the projected stages of completion of the Alteration and the corresponding
amounts equal to such completion. Any Cash or Eligible Collateral which the
Mortgagor shall deliver pursuant hereto shall be invested by the Mortgagee as
provided in Section 6.14 of the Indenture consistent with the projected
completion of the Alteration. From time to time as the Alteration progresses,
the amount of any Cash or Eligible Collateral so furnished may be withdrawn by
the Mortgagor and paid or otherwise applied by or returned to the Mortgagor in
an amount equal to the amount the Mortgagor would be entitled to so withdraw if
Section 15.2 hereof were applicable, and any Credit Facility so furnished may be
reduced by the Mortgagor in an amount equal to the amount the Mortgagor would be
entitled to so reduce if Section 15.2 hereof were applicable. At any time after
substantial completion of any Alteration in respect whereof Cash, a Credit
Facility or Eligible Collateral was deposited pursuant hereto, the whole balance
of any Cash so deposited with the Mortgagee and then remaining on deposit may be
withdrawn by the Mortgagor and shall be paid by the Mortgagee to the Mortgagor,
and any Cash, Credit Facility or Eligible Collateral so deposited shall, to the
extent it has not been called upon, reduced or theretofore released, be released
by the Mortgagee to the Mortgagor, within ten (10) days after receipt by the
Mortgagee of an application for such withdrawal and/or release together with an
Officers' Certificate, and signed also (as to clause (1) of this Section) by the
Architect, setting forth in substance as follows:

            (1) that the Alteration in respect of which such Cash, Credit
      Facility or Eligible Collateral was deposited, has been substantially
      completed in all material respects in accordance with any plans and
      specifications therefor previously filed with the Mortgagee under Section
      14(a) hereof;

            (2) that to the best knowledge of the certifying Person all amounts
      which the Mortgagor is or may become liable to pay in respect of such
      Alteration through the date of the certification have been paid in full or
      adequately provided for or are being contested in accordance with Article
      12 hereof and, to the extent that such are customary and reasonably
      obtainable by prudent managers in the metropolitan area where the

                                      -63-
<PAGE>   75

      Premises are located and the Mortgagor is not contesting payment in
      accordance with Article 12 hereof, that lien waivers have been obtained
      from the general contractor and major subcontractors performing such
      Alterations;

            (3) that to the best knowledge of the certifying Person such
      Alteration has not been performed in violation of any Legal Requirement
      and will not result in the loss of any certificate of occupancy;

            (4) that to the best knowledge of the certifying Person the affected
      Property, after giving effect to such Alteration, can be used for the
      purpose for which it was intended; and

            (5) that to the best knowledge of the certifying Person no Event of
      Default has occurred and is continuing.

            15. DAMAGE, DESTRUCTION AND RESTORATION.

            15.1. The Mortgagor to Give Notice. In case of any damage to or
destruction of the Premises of any Property or any part thereof for any reason
(which shall include earthquake for all purposes under this Mortgage), the
Restoration of which is reasonably estimated to cost more than $2,000,000, the
Mortgagor will promptly give written notice thereof to the Mortgagee, generally
describing the nature and extent of such damage or destruction.

            15.2. Application of Insurance Proceeds. If no Event of Default or a
Default of any monetary obligation under the Mortgage Notes shall have occurred
and be continuing, the Mortgagee consents to the direct payment to the Mortgagor
of Proceeds up to an amount (the "Casualty/Condemnation Threshold Amount") equal
to the lesser of (x) $2 million with respect to each Property and (y) an amount
that, when aggregated with other then-unapplied casualty insurance proceeds
(other than Proceeds paid in respect of the insurance described in clause (d) of
Exhibit E hereto) or condemnation awards received in respect of all of the
Properties, equals 5% of the aggregate initial Allocated Amounts of all
Properties which at the time are subject to the Lien of this Mortgage, paid on
account of any damage to or destruction of the Premises at one or more
Properties subject to the interest of the Mortgagee therein under this Mortgage
and the provisions hereof. The Mortgagor hereby irrevocably assigns to the
Mortgagee as additional security, all Proceeds payable on account of any

                                      -64-
<PAGE>   76

damage to or destruction of all or any part of the Premises, and agrees to the
payment to the Mortgagee of all such Proceeds in excess of the
Casualty/Condemnation Threshold Amount to be held and invested by the Mortgagee
as the Mortgagor shall direct in accordance with Section 6.14 of the Indenture,
until applied by the Mortgagee in accordance with the terms hereof. The
Mortgagor and the Mortgagee each shall hold all Proceeds received by it pursuant
to this Section (which shall not apply to any Proceeds payable under public
liability insurance and workers' compensation insurance) in trust to be applied
first, to the extent required under this Mortgage, to the cost of Restoration in
accordance with the provisions of this Mortgage (except that Proceeds paid in
respect of the insurance described in clause (d) of Exhibit E hereto shall be
paid into a separate trust account established by the Mortgagee for such purpose
to be applied to payment of amounts due under the Mortgage Notes or otherwise
secured hereby in accordance with the provisions hereof applicable to such
account). The earnings, if any, which accrue from investment of any Proceeds
shall remain in such trust account, less any expenses incurred by the Mortgagee
in investing such Proceeds and less the amounts required by the Mortgagor to pay
income taxes on such earnings as and when due, so long as no Event of Default or
a Default of any monetary obligation under the Mortgage Notes shall have
occurred and be continuing. To the extent that this Mortgage provides for
Proceeds to be held by the Mortgagee and applied to a Restoration (including
Restoration resulting from a Taking as provided in Section 16.2), such Proceeds
shall be paid by the Mortgagee to the Mortgagor at any time or from time to
time, as such Restoration progresses, either to pay or to reimburse the
Mortgagor for expenditures made or then required to be made for Restoration,
including payments to contractors, subcontractors, materialmen, suppliers,
attorneys, engineers, architects or other Persons who have rendered services or
furnished materials for such Restoration, subject to and reflecting customary
retentions reasonably satisfactory to the Mortgagee pending completion of the
work, and all other costs and expenses actually incurred by the Mortgagor in
connection with such Restoration, upon the receipt by the Mortgagee of an
Officers' Certificate dated not more than 30 days prior to the application for
such withdrawal, requesting such payment or reimbursement and setting forth the
work performed which is the subject of the application, the parties which
performed the work and the actual cost thereof and an Architect's certificate
certifying performance of such work. The Mortgagee will pay to the Mortgagor any
remaining Proceeds held by it after the application of such Proceeds

                                      -65-
<PAGE>   77

to the Restoration and the completion thereof. The Mortgagor will, in good faith
and with due diligence, subject to Excusable Delays, file and prosecute the
Mortgagor's claim for any such Proceeds and, subject to the provisions of this
Section 15.2 relating to the direct payment to the Mortgagor of any Proceeds,
will cause the same to be collected and paid over to the Mortgagee, to be held
and applied in accordance with the provisions of this Mortgage. The Mortgagor
hereby irrevocably authorizes and empowers the Mortgagee, in the name of the
Mortgagor as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact, to file and prosecute such
claim and to collect and to make receipt for any such payment, and, in the event
the Mortgagor fails so to act or if an Event of Default or a Default of any
monetary obligation under the Mortgage Notes shall have occurred and be
continuing, then in such case the Mortgagee may file such claim and prosecute it
with counsel satisfactory to it at the expense of the Mortgagor. The Mortgagee
shall have the right to approve, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld,
any settlement which might result in any Proceeds in excess of the
Casualty/Condemnation Threshold Amount, and the Mortgagor will deliver or cause
to be delivered to the Mortgagee all instruments reasonably requested by the
Mortgagee to permit such approval. The Mortgagor will pay all costs, fees and
expenses reasonably incurred by the Mortgagee (including all reasonable
attorneys' fees and expenses, the fees of insurance experts and adjusters and
the reasonable costs incurred in any litigation or arbitration) in connection
with any damage or destruction to the Premises and seeking and obtaining any
payment on account thereof.

            15.3. Restoration. In the event that the damage or destruction does
not constitute a Total Loss, the Mortgagor shall be obligated, at its expense
(whether or not the Proceeds are sufficient for such purpose), to effect the
Restoration of the Premises in accordance with the provisions of the Leases,
subject to Excusable Delays, and shall use all or a portion of such Proceeds to
the extent required, and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing, the Mortgagee shall make such Proceeds available to the Mortgagor
(all such Proceeds to be held by the Mortgagor in trust, to be applied first to
the payment or reimbursement of all costs incurred to effect the Restoration),
for Restoration in accordance with the provisions of this Mortgage. In the event
of a Total Loss, if the Mortgagor elects to restore the affected Property (or
Properties) the Mortgagor shall cause the Architect to prepare both a cost
estimate and schedule for Restoration of the Premises and to provide such
estimate and schedule to

                                      -66-
<PAGE>   78

the Mortgagee and the Mortgagor. In the event that (i) such schedule indicates
that all the Restoration of the affected Property except for work with a value
not in excess of $2,000,000 per affected Property cannot be completed prior to
the date upon which the insurance described in clause (d) of Exhibit E hereto
(plus any extension thereof obtained in addition to that so required) would be
exhausted (and any Credit Facility delivered in lieu thereof or in addition
thereto would have expired) or (ii) the extent of the damage makes it
impracticable in the Mortgagor's judgment to restore the Premises to
substantially the same condition as existing prior to such casualty, then the
Mortgagor or Mortgagee as applicable shall apply the Proceeds to the prepayment
in full on the next Payment Date (without penalty or Make-Whole Obligation) of
the Allocated Amount pertaining to such Property damaged by the casualty at a
price of par plus accrued and unpaid interest but without any penalty or
Make-Whole Obligation. Upon the payment of the entire Allocated Amount
pertaining to such affected Property, such affected Property shall then be
released from the lien of this Mortgage. If, after a Total Loss, the Mortgagor
is not required to restore the Premises or apply the Proceeds to prepay the
Allocated Amount pertaining to such Property damaged by the casualty pursuant to
the preceding sentence, the Mortgagor or Mortgagee as applicable shall apply the
Proceeds, at the option of the Mortgagor (to be exercised by the Mortgagor
giving notice thereof to the Mortgagee, but to be exercised only in accordance
with the Mortgagor's obligations regarding restoration under the Leases) to
either (i) the Restoration of the Premises in accordance with the provisions
hereof, or (ii) the prepayment (without penalty or Make-Whole Obligation) on the
next Payment Date of the Allocated Amount pertaining to such Property damaged by
the casualty and, in connection therewith, upon the prepayment of a sum equal to
the entire Allocated Amount, such Property shall then be released from the lien
of this Mortgage. In the event the Mortgagor is required or elects to apply the
Proceeds to prepay the Allocated Amount pertaining to such Property damaged by
the casualty (without penalty or Make-Whole Obligation), any Proceeds remaining
after such prepayment shall be first applied to an additional prepayment of the
Mortgage Notes (without penalty or Make-Whole Obligation) in an amount equal to
the lesser of (x) such remaining Proceeds and (y) an amount such that the total
amount prepaid by the Mortgagor equals 125% of the Allocated Amount of the
affected Property. Any additional Proceeds remaining after such prepayment shall
be paid to the Mortgagor or as it may direct in writing. In the event that the
Proceeds are insufficient to prepay the Allocated Amount pertaining to such
Property damaged by the casualty

                                      -67-
<PAGE>   79

(without penalty or Make-Whole Obligation) and to obtain the release of such
Property from the lien of this Mortgage, after the Mortgagor elects to so apply
the Proceeds, the Mortgagor shall continue to be obligated, subject to the
provisions of Article 38 hereof, to pay immediately the amount of such
insufficiency to the Mortgagee until such amount is satisfied. In the event the
Mortgagor is obligated or elects to effect Restoration of the Premises, the
Mortgagor shall promptly commence and complete the Restoration of the Premises
in accordance with the provisions of this Mortgage, subject to Excusable Delays,
and any Proceeds remaining after completion of such Restoration and delivery of
the Officers' Certificate required under Section 14(d) hereof shall be paid to
the Mortgagor or as it may direct in writing.

            Any prepayment of the Mortgage Notes made pursuant to this Article
15 shall be applied to the Mortgage Notes in the following order of priority:
first, to the Class A-1 Mortgage Note until the Class A-1 Mortgage Note has been
paid in full; second, to the Class A-2 Mortgage Note until the Class A-2
Mortgage Note has been paid in full; third, to the Class B Mortgage Note until
the Class B Mortgage Note has been paid in full; fourth, to the Class C Mortgage
Note until the Class C Mortgage Note has been paid in full; fifth, to the Class
D Mortgage Note until the Class D Mortgage Note has been paid in full; sixth, to
the Class E Mortgage Note until the Class E Mortgage Note has been paid in full;
and seventh, to the Class F Mortgage Note until the Class F Mortgage Note has
been paid in full.

            16. TAKING OF PROPERTY.

            16.1. The Mortgagor to Give Notice; Assignment of Awards, etc. In
case of a Taking of all or any part of the Premises of any Property, or the
commencement of any proceedings or negotiations which might result in any such
Taking, the Mortgagor will promptly give written notice thereof to the
Mortgagee, generally describing the nature and extent of such Taking or the
nature of such proceedings or negotiations and the nature and extent of the
Taking which might result therefrom. As additional security, the Mortgagor
hereby irrevocably assigns, transfers and sets over to the Mortgagee, subject to
the provisions of this Mortgage, all rights of the Mortgagor to any Proceeds on
account of any Taking, subject to the provisions of this Mortgage with respect
to the use and application of any such Proceeds and provided that in the case of
an amount of such Proceeds which is not more than the Casualty/Condemnation
Threshold Amount if no Event of Default or a Default of any

                                      -68-
<PAGE>   80

monetary obligation under the Mortgage Notes shall have occurred and be
continuing, the Mortgagor shall have the right to receive direct payment of such
Proceeds, to be held and applied to the Restoration in accordance with the
provisions of this Mortgage (all such Proceeds to be held by the Mortgagor in
trust, to be applied first to the payment or reimbursement of all costs incurred
to effect the Restoration). If the amount of Proceeds is reasonably estimated by
the Mortgagor to exceed the Casualty/ Condemnation Threshold Amount, the
settlement of any such proceeding and the amount of Proceeds payable in respect
thereof shall be subject to the reasonable approval of the Mortgagee; provided
that no such approval shall be required if the Proceeds shall be sufficient to
prepay (without penalty or Make-Whole Obligation) the Allocated Amount
pertaining to such Property and the Mortgagor is permitted and has elected to do
so. The Mortgagor will in good faith and with due diligence, subject to
Excusable Delays, file and prosecute the Mortgagor's claim for any such Proceeds
and, subject to the provisions of the second sentence of this Section 16.1, will
cause the same to be collected and paid over to the Mortgagee, to be held and
applied in accordance with the provisions of this Mortgage. The Mortgagor hereby
irrevocably authorizes and empowers the Mortgagee, in the name of the Mortgagor
as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact, to file and prosecute such claim (with
counsel satisfactory to it at the expense of the Mortgagor) and to collect and
to make receipt for any such award or payment in the event the Mortgagor fails
so to act or if an Event of Default or a Default of any monetary obligation
under the Mortgage Notes shall have occurred and be continuing. The Mortgagee
shall have the right to approve, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld,
any settlement which may result in any Taking which might result in an award in
excess of the Casualty/Condemnation Threshold Amount, and the Mortgagor will
deliver or cause to be delivered to the Mortgagee all instruments reasonably
requested by it to permit such approval. The Mortgagor will pay all costs, fees
and expenses reasonably incurred by the Mortgagee (including all reasonable
attorneys' fees and expenses, the fees of insurance experts and adjusters and
the reasonable costs incurred in any litigation or arbitration) in connection
with any Taking and seeking and obtaining any award or payment on account
thereof.

            16.2. Partial Taking. In case of a Taking of any of the Properties
other than a Total Taking with respect to such Property, the Mortgagor shall be
obligated, at its expense (whether or not the Proceeds shall be sufficient for
such purpose, but subject to the provisions of Article 38

                                      -69-
<PAGE>   81

hereof) to effect Restoration of the Premises of any such Property in accordance
with the provisions of the Leases and this Mortgage, subject to Excusable
Delays.

            16.3. Application of Awards, etc. All Proceeds received by or
payable to the Mortgagee on account of a Taking shall be held and invested by
the Mortgagee until applied by the Mortgagee as follows:

            (a) All Proceeds (excluding the Proceeds on account of a Taking for
temporary use) other than Proceeds received on account of a Total Taking shall
be applied to the Restoration of the Premises as if such Proceeds were Proceeds
of a casualty to be applied pursuant to Section 15.2, and after the completion
of the Restoration of the Premises, any balance of the Proceeds remaining shall
next be applied on the Payment Date following such completion as a prepayment
(without penalty or Make-Whole Obligation) of the Allocated Amount pertaining to
the affected Property. To the extent that, subsequent to Restoration, the
remaining Proceeds of a Taking (excluding the proceeds on account of a Taking
for temporary use or proceeds which are not in respect of a diminution in value
of the Premises) are sufficient to prepay the Allocated Amount pertaining to the
affected Property and are so applied, such Property shall then be released from
the lien of this Mortgage. Any Proceeds of a Taking remaining after such
prepayment shall first be applied to a further prepayment of the Mortgage Notes
(without penalty or Make-Whole Obligation) in an amount equal to the lesser of
(x) such remaining Proceeds and (y) an amount such that the total amount prepaid
by the Mortgagor equals 125% of the Allocated Amount of such affected Property.
The balance of any Proceeds of a Taking, if any, shall be paid over and assigned
to the Mortgagor or as it may direct in writing.

            (b) All Proceeds received on account of a Total Taking of any
Property shall be applied to the prepayment (without penalty or Make-Whole
Obligation) on the next Payment Date, to the extent that the Proceeds are
sufficient therefor, of the Allocated Amount pertaining to such Property,
whereupon such Property shall be released from the lien of this Mortgage. Any
Proceeds of a Taking remaining after such prepayment shall first be applied to a
further prepayment of the Mortgage Notes (without penalty or Make-Whole
Obligation) in an amount equal to the lesser of (x) such remaining Proceeds and
(y) an amount such that the total amount prepaid by the Mortgagor equals 125% of
the Allocated Amount of such affected Property. The balance of any Proceeds of a
Taking, if any, shall be paid over and

                                      -70-
<PAGE>   82

assigned to the Mortgagor or as it may direct in writing. In the event that the
Proceeds are insufficient to prepay the Allocated Amount pertaining to such
Property (without penalty or Make-Whole Payment), the Mortgagor shall be
obligated, subject to the provisions of Article 38 hereof, to pay immediately
the amount of such insufficiency to the Mortgagee and upon the payment of the
entire Allocated Amount of such Property, such Property shall be released from
the lien of this Mortgage.

            Any prepayment made pursuant to this Article 16 shall be applied to
the Mortgage Notes in the following order of priority: first, to the Class A-1
Mortgage Note until the Class A-1 Mortgage Note has been paid in full; second,
to the Class A-2 Mortgage Note until the Class A-2 Mortgage Note has been paid
in full; third, to the Class B Note until the Class B Mortgage Note has been
paid in full; fourth, to the Class C Mortgage Note until the Class C Mortgage
Note has been paid in full; fifth, to the Class D Mortgage Note until the Class
D Mortgage Note has been paid in full; sixth, to the Class E Mortgage Note until
the Class E Mortgage Note has been paid in full; and seventh, to the Class F
Mortgage Note until the Class F Mortgage Note has been paid in full.

            17. EVICTION BY PARAMOUNT TITLE. The Mortgagor, within three
Business Days of obtaining knowledge of the pendency of any proceedings for the
eviction of the Mortgagor from the Premises of any Property or any part thereof
by paramount title or otherwise questioning the Mortgagor's title to the
Premises as warranted in this Mortgage, or of any condition which might
reasonably be expected to give rise to any such proceedings, shall notify the
Mortgagee thereof. The Mortgagee may participate in such proceedings, and the
Mortgagor will deliver or cause to be delivered to the Mortgagee all instruments
reasonably requested by the Mortgagee to permit such participation. In any such
proceeding the Mortgagee may be represented by counsel reasonably satisfactory
to it at the reasonable expense of the Mortgagor. The Mortgagor will pay all
costs, fees and expenses reasonably incurred by the Mortgagee (including all
reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses, the fees of insurance experts and
adjusters and the reasonable costs incurred in any litigation or arbitration) in
connection with any such proceeding and seeking and obtaining any award or
payment on account thereof.

                                      -71-
<PAGE>   83

            18. BOOKS AND RECORDS, FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, REPORTS AND OTHER
INFORMATION.

            18.1. Books and Records. The Mortgagor will keep proper books of
record and account, in which accurate and complete entries shall be made of all
dealings or transactions of or in relation to each of the Properties and the
business and affairs of the Mortgagor relating to the Premises of each Property.
The Mortgagee and its authorized representatives may, subject to Section 6.6 of
the Indenture, from time to time, designate an agent to examine, at reasonable
times and upon reasonable notice, the books and records of the Mortgagor
relating to the operation of the Premises.

            18.2. Financial Statements. (a) Not later than one hundred five
(105) days after each December 31 after the date hereof and for the fiscal year
then ended, the Mortgagor will prepare and deliver to the Mortgagee an audited
balance sheet and statement of income and expenses relating to the Properties on
a consolidated basis for such fiscal year, all in reasonable detail as to the
sources and character thereof and stating in comparative form the figures for
the previous fiscal year. Such annual financial statements for each fiscal year
shall be certified by certified public accountants reasonably acceptable to the
Mortgagee and shall be accompanied by an Officers' Certificate of the Mortgagor
certifying that such statements are true and correct in all material respects,
and that the officer signing such certificate has obtained no knowledge of any
Default or Event of Default or, if so, specifying each such Default or Event of
Default and the nature and status thereof and what action the Mortgagor is
taking and proposes to take with respect thereto. Without limitation, any of the
six largest national accounting firms shall be acceptable to Mortgagee.

            (b) Not later than forty-five (45) days after the end of each fiscal

to the Mortgagee an unaudited balance sheet and statement of income and expenses
relating to the Properties on a consolidated basis for such fiscal quarter and
for the fiscal year to date and not later than forty-five (45) days after the
end of each fiscal quarter (including the fourth quarter) an additional

<PAGE>   84

correct in all material respects, and that the officer signing such certificate
has obtained no knowledge of a Default or Event of Default or, if so, specifying
each such Default or Event of Default and the nature and status thereof and what
action the Mortgagor is taking and purposes to take with respect thereto.

            (c) Subject to Section 6.6 of the Indenture and Section 47 hereof
(relating to confidentiality requirements), not later than forty-five (45) days
after the end of each fiscal quarter the Mortgagor shall deliver to the
Mortgagee:

                  (i) a rent roll as of the end of such quarter for each
      Property;

                  (ii) subject to confidentiality obligations to tenants, the
      most recent retail "sales information", if any, collected by or on behalf
      of the Mortgagor; and

                  (iii) lease abstracts with respect to new leases entered into

of the Debt Service Coverage Ratio for the period to which such financial
statements relate.

            18.3. Additional Information. Subject to Section 6.6 of the
Indenture and Section 47 hereof (relating to confidentiality requirements), with
respect to each Property, the Mortgagor will deliver to the Mortgagee (and to
the Rating Agencies) (i) notice in the event of any (a) Event of Default under
this Mortgage or the Indenture, (b) material casualty to or taking of the
Property, or (c) change in the Manager, and (ii) a copy of any notice from any
environmental authority having jurisdiction over the Property with respect to a

            19. TRANSFERS AND INDEBTEDNESS. Unless such action is permitted by
the provisions of this Article 19 or the provisions of Section 3.2(c), 3.2(d) or
3.2(f) or Article 20 hereof, the Mortgagor will not (i) sell, assign, convey,
transfer or otherwise dispose of legal or beneficial interests in all or any
part of the Properties, (ii) permit any owner, directly or indirectly, of a
beneficial interest in any of the Properties, to transfer such interest, whether

in accordance with Article 44 hereof, the Mortgagor shall not sell, assign,
convey, transfer or otherwise dispose of legal or equitable title to or any
interest in all (or any) of the Properties unless after giving effect to the
proposed transaction:

                  (a) the Properties shall be directly owned by a Single Purpose
            Entity (including a tenancy-in-common among Single Purpose Entities
            under a tenancy-in-common agreement in substance the same in all
            material respects as a partnership agreement of a single-purpose
            partnership) which at the time of such transfer will be in
            compliance with the covenants contained in Sections 3.3 and 3.4
            hereof and which has assumed in writing (subject to the terms of
            Article 38 hereof) and agreed to comply with all the terms,
            covenants and conditions set forth in this Mortgage, expressly
            including the covenants contained in Sections 3.3 and 3.4 hereof,
            and each of the other Mortgage Security Documents;

                  (b) one or more Approved Control Parties shall, individually
            or acting in concert, own directly or indirectly at least 51% of,
            and

            control, the entity which directly owns the Properties ("control"
            meaning, for purposes of this Section 19.1 and Section 19.2, primary
            responsibility to make all material decisions with respect to the
            operation, management, financing and disposition of the Properties,
            rather than a beneficial ownership requirement, and without being
            compromised by the fact that responsibility for such day-to-day
            operating and management functions as are ordinarily handled by a
            property manager or for leasing activities has been delegated by
            such controlling Person pursuant to an agreement in writing)
            provided, however, that at all times a Vornado Affiliate and/or a
            Permitted Owner shall own directly or indirectly at least 51% of,
            and control, the entity which directly owns the Properties,

                  (c) if the Manager and/or an Affiliate of the Manager does not
            act as Manager of the Properties and one or more of the Mortgagors
            named herein does not own or control the transferee, then the
            Manager of the Property must be a reputable and experienced
            professional management company, having under management, at the
            time of the proposed transfer, at least 20 retail shopping centers
            comprising at least 8 million square feet;

                  (d) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing;

                  (e) if the transfer results in a transfer of more than 49% of
            the direct or indirect ownership interests of any Borrower or
            Guarantor, a satisfactory non-consolidation opinion of counsel with
            respect to the transferee and the owner of such transferee is
            provided to the Mortgagee and the Rating Agencies; and

                  (f) if the Approval Control Party is an entity other than a
            Vornado Affiliate, a Rating Agency Confirmation shall have been
            obtained with respect to the proposed transfer.

Any permitted transferee of the Properties shall execute an assumption in the
form of Exhibit F hereto, subject to the provisions of Article 38 hereof, of the
obligations of the Mortgagor under this Mortgage. With respect to any transfer
described in this Section 19.1(i), Mortgagor shall pay to the Servicer an
assumption fee of $5,000.

                                      -75-
<PAGE>   87

            (ii) The Mortgagor also may transfer or dispose of Equipment which
is being replaced or which is no longer necessary in connection with the
operation of the Premises or of any Property free from the interest of the
Mortgagee under this Mortgage, provided that such transfer or disposal will not
adversely affect the value of such Property, will not materially impair the
utility of the Premises of such Property, and will not result in a reduction or
abatement of, or right of offset against, the rentals payable under any Lease,
in either case as a result thereof, and provided that any new Equipment acquired
by the Mortgagor (and not so disposed of) shall be subject to the interest of
the Mortgagee under this Mortgage unless leased to the Mortgagor. The Mortgagee
shall, from time to time, upon receipt of an Officers' Certificate requesting
the same and confirming satisfaction of the conditions set forth above, execute
a written instrument in form reasonably satisfactory to it to confirm that such
Equipment which is to be, or has been, sold or disposed of is free from the
interest of the Mortgagee under this Mortgage.

            19.2. Transfer or Encumbrance of Interests in the Mortgagor. (i) A
sale, assignment, conveyance, transfer, or other disposition or hypothecation or
other encumbrance of a direct or indirect beneficial interest in one or more of
the Mortgagors shall be permitted if (I) the Mortgagee shall have consented
thereto, or (II) after giving effect to the proposed transaction, one or more
Approved Control Parties shall, individually or acting in concert, directly or
indirectly own and control (as defined in Section 19.1) such Mortgagors;
provided, however, that if a transfer is made pursuant to clause (II) hereof
there shall be provided (x) if the transfer results in a transfer of more than
49% of the direct or indirect ownership interests of any Borrower or Guarantor,
a non-consolidation opinion of counsel with respect to such Permitted Owner, and
the applicable Mortgagor, which is satisfactory to the Rating Agencies and (y) a
Rating Agency Confirmation shall have been obtained with respect to the proposed
transfer unless such transfer is to a Vornado Affiliate.

            (ii) a hypothecation or other encumbrance of a direct or indirect
beneficial interest in one or more of the Mortgagors or in Vornado Finance shall
be permitted in connection with and to secure a borrowing by the owner of such
direct or indirect interest, provided that a Rating Agency Confirmation shall
have been obtained with respect thereto.

                                      -76-
<PAGE>   88

            (iii) Nothing in this Article 19 and no other provision of this
Mortgage or any other Mortgage Security Document shall prohibit or be construed
as prohibiting, conditioning or restricting any shareholder in Vornado or any
partner in VRLP (but only so long as Vornado owns in excess of 50% of VRLP) from
selling, assigning, pledging, hypothecating, conveying, transferring or
otherwise disposing of or encumbering such Person's shares in Vornado or
partnership interests in VRLP, respectively, to any other Person, and no such
transaction shall in and of itself result in any Default hereunder.

            19.3. Indebtedness. The Mortgagor shall not incur, create or assume
any indebtedness or incur any liabilities secured by any of the Properties
without the consent of the Mortgagee (other than the Mortgage Notes and the
other obligations, indebtedness and liabilities secured by this Mortgage or set
forth in any other Mortgage Security Document); provided, however, that, without
the consent of the Mortgagee, the Mortgagor may incur, create or assume the
following indebtedness:

                  (i) amounts, not secured by the Premises of any of the
      Properties and that are not more than 60 days past due, payable by or on
      behalf of the Mortgagor for or in respect of the operation of any of the
      Properties in the ordinary course of operating the Mortgagor's business,
      including amounts payable by or on behalf of the Mortgagor to suppliers,
      contractors, mechanics, vendors, materialmen or other persons providing
      property or services to the Mortgagor or to the Premises of any of the
      Properties, or in connection with the ownership, management, operation,
      leasing, cleaning, maintenance, repair, replacement, financing,
      improvement, alteration or restoration thereof incurred in the ordinary
      course of operating the Mortgagor's business (provided, however, that
      notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the Mortgagor be
      permitted under this provision to enter into a note for borrowed money);

                  (ii) amounts, not secured by the Premises of any of the
      Properties, payable or reimbursable to any Tenant on account of work
      performed at the Premises of such Property by such Tenant or for costs
      incurred by such Tenant in connection with its occupancy of space in the
      Premises of such Property including tenant improvements and tenant work
      allowances (provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, in no

                                      -77-
<PAGE>   89

      event shall the Mortgagor be permitted under this provision to enter into
      a note for borrowed money);

                  (iii) indebtedness not secured by any of the Properties (but
      which may be secured by the Equipment so financed), relating solely to
      financing of capital improvements, tenant improvements, Equipment or
      leasing costs relating to any Property or Properties, and costs associated
      with such indebtedness;

                  (iv) capital lease obligations; and

                  (v) indebtedness not secured by any of the Properties incurred
      to finance tenant improvements, Equipment, capital improvements, leasing
      costs, or legal or compliance costs;

provided, however, that the indebtedness described in clauses 19.3(i) through
(v) above shall not in the aggregate exceed 4% of the aggregate initial
Allocated Amounts of all Properties which at the time are subject to the Lien of
this Mortgage.

            19.4. Intentionally Omitted.

            19.5. Notice. Not less than five Business days prior to the closing
of any transaction subject to the provisions of Section 19.1(i) or 19.2(i)
(other than a transaction described in 19.2(ii)), the Mortgagor shall deliver to
the Mortgagee an Officers' Certificate describing the proposed transaction and
stating that such transaction is permitted by this Article 19, together with
such documents upon which such Officers' Certificate is based.

            19.6. Delivery of Documents to the Mortgagee. No more than twenty
(20) Business Days after the completion of any transaction subject to Section
19.1(i) or 19.2(i) (other than a transaction described in Section 19.2(ii)), the
Mortgagor shall provide the Mortgagee with copies of executed deeds, mortgages
and such other similar closing documents as may be reasonably requested by the
Mortgagee.

            20. PERFORMANCE OF LEASES; APPLICATION OF RENTS. (a) The Mortgagor
shall timely perform and observe or cause to be performed or observed all the
material terms, covenants and conditions required to be performed and observed
by the Mortgagor under the Leases, such that there will be no material and
adverse impairment of the value of any of the Properties or the Mortgagee's
interest under this Mortgage. The Mortgagor will promptly deliver to the

                                      -78-
<PAGE>   90

Mortgagee a copy of any notice from any Tenant under any Lease covering 15,000
or more square feet of rentable area of the Premises of any Property, claiming
that the lessor is materially in default in the performance or observance of any
of the terms, covenants or conditions thereof to be performed or observed by the
lessor, and will provide in each Lease at the Properties after the date hereof
to which it is a party that any Tenant delivering any such notice shall send a
copy of such notice directly to the Mortgagee.

            (b) The Mortgagor shall engage, and shall maintain during the term
hereof their engagement of, Vornado, an Affiliate thereof or another
professional management company which manages at least 20 other retail shopping
centers comprising an aggregate of at least 4 million square feet, as the
Manager of the Properties (each, a "Manager"). The Mortgagor shall, or shall
cause the Manager to, manage and operate the Premises of each Property in a
reasonably prudent manner and shall not enter into any Lease after the date
hereof which would, evaluated alone or in conjunction with any then existing
leases, result in any material impairment of the fair market value, as of the
date such Lease is executed by the Mortgagor, of the affected Property. Subject
to subsection (e) of this Section 20, the Mortgagor may enter into any Lease
which is not inconsistent with the provisions of this Article 20 and the other
applicable provisions of this Mortgage, if any, and the Mortgagor agrees to
deliver either a duplicate original executed counterpart or a certified copy of
each Lease to the Mortgagee. Each Lease entered into after the date hereof
(including the renewal or extension on or after the date hereof of any lease
entered into prior to the date hereof if the rent payable during such renewal or
extension, or a formula to compute such rent, is not provided for in such Lease,
such a renewal or extension a "Renewal Lease") either (A) shall provide for rent
and all other material items thereunder to be payable in amounts at least equal
to the fair market rental value (taking into account the type and quality of the
Tenant), as of the date such Lease is executed by the Mortgagor, of the space
covered by such lease or Renewal Lease for the term thereof, including any
renewal options, (B) shall not have a material adverse effect on the value of
any of the Properties as a whole or the ability of the Mortgagor to pay its
obligations in respect of the Mortgage Notes and this Mortgage or (C) shall be
consented to by the Mortgagee.

            (c) The Mortgagor may, without the consent of the Mortgagee, amend,
modify or waive the provisions of any Lease, provided that such action does not
have a material

                                      -79-
<PAGE>   91

adverse effect upon the value of any of the Properties, and provided further
that such Lease, as amended, modified or waived, is otherwise in compliance with
the requirements of this Mortgage and a certified copy of the amendment,
modification or waiver is delivered to the Mortgagee.

            (d) The Mortgagor may terminate or permit the termination of any
Lease of space or accept surrender of all or any portion of the space demised
under the Lease or acquire any Lease or reduce the rentals reserved under or
shorten the term of any Lease so long as such action (taking into account the
planned alternative uses of the space) does not materially adversely affect the
value of any of the Properties (it being agreed that termination of the Lease of
a Tenant which is in default, after any applicable notice and cure periods,
shall be considered to be for the benefit of the Properties) or the ability of
the Mortgagor to pay its obligations in respect of the Mortgage Notes and this
Mortgage.

            (e) After the occurrence and during the continuation of a Triggering
Event (as defined in the Indenture), Mortgagor shall not enter into any lease in
excess of 40,000 square feet without the prior approval of Mortgagee (which such
approval shall be deemed to have been given if Mortgagee does not respond within
twenty (20) days after receipt of such request and the information reasonably
necessary to make such a determination).

            (f) No Mortgagor shall enter into any Lease with an Affiliate of
such Mortgagor at any Property, unless (i) the space is for the use and
occupancy of one or more of such Affiliates, and (ii) the material terms of such
Lease comply with the requirements set forth in Section 20(b) hereof; provided,
however, that a reasonable amount of office space not in excess of 5,000 net
leaseable square feet can be provided to each Manager for the purpose of
management of each of the Properties at less than fair market rental or at no
rental, at the Mortgagor's discretion. The Mortgagor shall have the right,
subject to the provisions of this Mortgage, to acquire Leases by way of
assignment, surrender, acquisition or further sublease. The Mortgagor shall not
modify the terms governing the management of any of the Properties in any
respect which would have a materially adverse effect on the operation of, or the
Net Cash Flow generated by, or the value of, the Premises of any Property
without the prior approval of the Mortgagee. The Mortgagor shall not replace the
Manager of any Property with a new Manager without first having obtained a
Rating Agency Confirmation with respect thereto.

                                      -80-
<PAGE>   92

            (g) The Mortgagor shall not receive or collect, or permit the
receipt or collection of, any rental or other payments under any Lease more than
one (1) month in advance of the respective period in respect of which they are
to accrue, except that (i) in connection with the execution and delivery of any
Lease or of any amendment to any Lease, rental payments thereunder may be
collected and received in advance in an amount not in excess of one (1) month's
rent and a security deposit (including advance rents as or in lieu of a security
deposit) may be required thereunder (provided that such deposits are maintained
in accordance with applicable law and in accordance with Article 53 hereof), and
(ii) the Mortgagor may receive and collect escalation, percentage rent and other
charges in accordance with the terms of each Lease and (iii) the Mortgagor may
receive and collect more than one month's rent in connection with a Tenant
terminating its Lease if the termination of the Lease is permitted under this
Mortgage.

            (h) Subject to the terms of any non-disturbance and attornment
agreement which the Mortgagee may provide to any Tenant pursuant to this
Mortgage, the Mortgagor shall not enter into any Lease after the date hereof
that does not contain terms to the effect as set forth in Exhibit G hereto.

            (i) Upon receipt by the Mortgagee of a written request from the
Mortgagor therefor, the Mortgagee shall execute and deliver to the Tenant under
any Lease (other than a Lease to an Affiliate of the Mortgagor) existing on the
date hereof or made in accordance with the provisions of this Article 20, a
non-disturbance and attornment agreement in customary form for the Premises if
required by such Lease and specified in such request, provided that such request
is accompanied by an Officers' Certificate stating that such Lease complies in
all respects with this Mortgage, including specifically this Article 20.

            21. NO ENDORSEMENT. The Mortgagee shall not become or be considered
to be an endorser, co-maker or co-obligor on the Mortgage Notes or on any
obligation of the Mortgagor secured by this Mortgage.

            22. NO CREDIT FOR PAYMENT OF TAXES OR IMPOSITIONS. The Mortgagor
shall not be entitled to any credit against the principal of or interest or
Make-Whole Obligation, if any, payable on the Mortgage Notes, and the Mortgagor
shall not be entitled to any credit against any other amounts which may become
payable under the terms thereof or hereof, by reason of the payment of any tax
on

                                      -81-
<PAGE>   93

any Property or any part thereof or by reason of the payment of any other
Imposition or other amount required to be paid hereunder. No deduction shall be
made or claimed from the taxable value of any Property or any part thereof by
reason of this Mortgage.

            23. EVENT OF DEFAULT; ACCELERATION OF MORTGAGE NOTE. If one or more
of the following events ("Event of Default") shall occur:

            (a) a default in the regularly scheduled payment of any principal or
interest required to be paid under the Mortgage Notes by 11:00 a.m., New York
time, on the second Business Day immediately preceding any Payment Date or
failure by Mortgagor to make deposits in the Reserve Accounts as required under
the Cash Management Agreement or Indenture; or

            (b) a default in the payment of the principal of any Mortgage Note
at maturity (whether at the Maturity Date, by acceleration, call for prepayment
or otherwise); or

            (c) default in the payment of any amounts due and payable (other
than amounts described in the foregoing clause (a) or (b)) under the Mortgage
which continues for a period of fifteen Business Days after written demand by
the Mortgagee for payment thereof; or

            (d) an "Event of Default" as defined in any Mortgage Security
Document, the Indenture or the Guaranty Agreement; or

            (e) any insurance required to be maintained in respect of the
Premises of any Property pursuant to Article 13 hereof shall be cancelled,
terminated or expire (and replacement insurance or a binding commitment to
provide such replacement insurance complying with the provisions of Article 13
hereof has not been effected prior to such event) or any such insurance shall be
amended or modified so as not to comply with Article 13 hereof, and notice to
the Mortgagor of such cancellation, termination, expiration, amendment or
modification shall have been mailed or otherwise surrendered or released for
delivery to the Mortgagor; or

            (f) the Mortgagor shall, directly or indirectly, make or permit to
occur a violation of the covenants contained in Section 3.3 or 3.4 hereof, or a
violation of the covenants contained in Article 11 hereof (subject to the
provisions of Article 12 hereof), or any sale, assignment, conveyance, transfer,
mortgage, pledge, encumbrance or other

                                      -82-
<PAGE>   94

disposition in violation of Article 19 hereof, or incur any indebtedness in
violation of Article 19 hereof;

            (g) the Mortgagor shall fail to perform or comply with any of the
material covenants of this Mortgage, including the failure to perform in all
material respects under any ground lease applicable to a Property subject to
applicable notice and cure rights thereunder (other than as described in the
foregoing clauses (a) through (f)), or the Mortgagor shall breach any
representation or warranty made by it in this Mortgage or in any other Mortgage
Security Document, and in any such case, such failure or breach shall continue
for more than thirty (30) Business Days after written notice thereof by the
Mortgagee to the Mortgagor; provided that in the case of any such failure that
is susceptible of cure but that cannot with diligence be cured within such
thirty Business Day period, if the Mortgagor shall promptly have commenced to
cure the same and shall thereafter prosecute the curing thereof with diligence,
subject to Excusable Delays, the period within which such failure may be cured
shall be extended for such further period as shall be reasonably necessary for
the curing thereof with diligence, subject to Excusable Delays; provided,
however, that Mortgagor shall provide a written explanation to Mortgagee
explaining the reasons for requiring such extended cure period; provided,
further, however, that such extended period shall not exceed one hundred eighty
(180) days unless, only in the case of cures which require construction or
remedial work, cure cannot with diligence reasonably be achieved within such one
hundred eighty (180) days and the Mortgagor has delivered an Officers'
Certificate to the Mortgagee to such effect, in which event such period shall be
extended for an additional one hundred eighty (180) days (and provided that cure
of any breach of representation or warranty, and that cure of any failure to
make a delivery, subsequent to the date as of which the representation or
warranty was made or applies, or such delivery was required, shall constitute
cure of such breach, or cure of such failure to make the delivery, provided such
breach or failure has not had a material adverse effect on the interest of the
Mortgagee hereunder); or

            (h) intentionally omitted.

            (i) the entry by a court having jurisdiction over any Borrower or
Guarantor of (A) a decree or order for relief in respect of such Borrower or
Guarantor in an involuntary case or proceeding under any applicable federal or
state bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization,

                                      -83-
<PAGE>   95

rehabilitation or other similar law or (B) a decree or order adjudging such
Borrower or Guarantor a bankrupt or insolvent, or approving as properly filed a
petition seeking reorganization, rehabilitation, arrangement, adjustment or
composition of or in respect of such Borrower or Guarantor under any applicable
federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, rehabilitation or other
similar law, or appointing a custodian, receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee,
sequestrator or other similar official of such Borrower or Guarantor or of any
substantial part of its property, or ordering the winding up or liquidation of
its affairs and such decree or order remains undismissed for a period for 60
days; or

            (j) the commencement by any Borrower or Guarantor of a voluntary
case or proceeding under any applicable federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization or other similar law or of any other case or proceeding to be
adjudicated a bankrupt or insolvent, or the consent by such Borrower or
Guarantor to the entry of a decree or order for relief in any involuntary case
or proceeding under any applicable federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization or other similar law or to the commencement of any bankruptcy or
insolvency case or proceeding against it, or the filing by it of a petition or
answer or consent seeking reorganization or relief under any applicable federal
or state bankruptcy or similar law, or the consent by it to the filing of such
petition or to the appointment of or taking possession by a custodian, receiver,
liquidator, assignee, trustee, sequestrator or similar official of such Borrower
or Guarantor or of any substantial part of its property, or the making by it of
an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or the admission by it in writing of
its inability to pay its debts generally as they become due, or the taking of
action by such Borrower or Guarantor in furtherance of any such action.

then, in any such event, the Mortgagee, at its option, may, in accordance with
the provisions of Section 5.2 of the Indenture, declare the Mortgage Notes due
and payable and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, the Mortgagee may
exercise the other remedies provided for herein for an Event of Default;
provided, however, that if an Event of Default described in clause (i) or (j)
occurs, then the Mortgage Notes shall automatically be and become due and
payable immediately without any action whatsoever on the part of the Mortgagee,
and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, the Mortgagee may exercise such
other remedies as may be available to Mortgagee. If after the occurrence of an
Event of Default, the Mortgage Notes are accelerated prior to the Payment Date
occurring in December 2009, the Mortgagor shall

                                      -84-
<PAGE>   96

pay the Make-Whole Amount with respect to the Mortgage Notes.

            Within thirty (30) days after any written request by the Mortgagee
therefor, but no more frequently than once in any twelve month period, the
Mortgagor shall furnish to the Mortgagee an Officers' Certificate, stating that
in the ordinary course of the performance by the officer of the Mortgagor
signing such certificate of his duties he either would normally obtain knowledge
or have made due inquiry as to the existence of any condition or event which
would constitute an Event of Default hereunder or a Default of any monetary
obligation under the Mortgage Notes and certifying that to the best of his
knowledge there is no such condition or event, or if any such condition or event
exists, specifying each such Event of Default or a Default of any monetary
obligation under the Mortgage Notes and the nature and status thereof and what
action the Mortgagor is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto.

            The Mortgagor acknowledges that the Secured Obligations are secured
by this Mortgage, the Assignment of Leases and various other documents or
instruments securing or evidencing the Mortgage Loan. Upon the occurrence of an
Event of Default, the Mortgagee shall have the right to institute a proceeding
or proceedings for the total or partial foreclosure of this Mortgage and any or
all of the other Mortgage Security Documents, whether by court action, power of
sale or otherwise, under any applicable provisions of law, for all of the
indebtedness secured by the Mortgage Security Documents or the portion of such
indebtedness allocated to any particular Property, and the liens and the
security interests created by the Mortgage Security Documents shall continue in
full force and effect as to the Property not foreclosed without loss of priority
securing that portion of the indebtedness then due and payable and still
outstanding. The Mortgagor acknowledges that the Properties are located in six
(6) different states and agree that, subject to Article 38 of this Mortgage,
upon the occurrence of an Event of Default hereunder the Mortgagee shall be
entitled to enforce payment of the indebtedness secured by the Mortgage Security
Documents and the performance of any term, covenant or condition of the Mortgage
Security Documents and exercise any and all rights and remedies under the
Mortgage Security Documents or as provided by law or at equity, by one or more
proceedings, whether contemporaneous, consecutive or both, to be determined by
the Mortgagee in its sole discretion, in any one or more states in which the
Properties are located. Neither the acceptance of this Mortgage or the other

                                      -85-
<PAGE>   97

Mortgage Security Documents nor the enforcement thereof in any one state,
whether by court action, foreclosure, power of sale or otherwise, shall
prejudice or in any way limit or preclude enforcement by court action,
foreclosure, power of sale or otherwise, of the Mortgage Notes, this Mortgage or
the other Mortgage Security Documents through one or more additional proceedings
in that state or in any other state. Any and all sums received by the Mortgagee
under the Mortgage Notes, this Mortgage or the other Mortgage Security Documents
shall be applied toward the repayment of the Secured Obligations in such order
and priority as the Mortgagee shall determine, consistent with the requirements
of the Mortgage Security Documents (including, without limitation, the rights of
the Mortgagor set forth in Section 44 of this Mortgage), but otherwise without
regard to the Allocated Amount applicable to each Property or the appraised
value of any of the Properties.

            24. COMPROMISE OF ACTIONS. Any action, suit or proceeding brought by
the Mortgagee pursuant to this Mortgage or otherwise and any claim made by the
Mortgagee under this Mortgage or otherwise may be compromised, withdrawn or
otherwise dealt with by the Mortgagee without notice to or the approval of the
Mortgagor.

            25. FORECLOSURE.

            25.1. Foreclosure. Subject to Article 38 hereof, if any Event of
Default shall have occurred and the Mortgage Notes shall have been declared due
and payable, the Mortgagee, for the benefit of the Holders (as defined in the
Indenture), may at any time proceed, at law or in equity or otherwise, to
enforce the payment of the Mortgage Notes in accordance with the terms thereof
and:

            (a) to institute an action to foreclose its interest under and the
lien of this Mortgage against any of the Properties by judicial foreclosure sale
or strict foreclosure in one proceeding or against portions of the Properties in
a series of separate proceedings, and to have the same sold under the judgment
or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction or proceed to take any of such
actions; and

            (b) to take such other action at law or in equity or otherwise for
the enforcement of this Mortgage and the realization on the security or any
other security herein or elsewhere provided for, as the law may allow (including
by power of sale), and may proceed therein to final judgment and execution for
the entire unpaid balance of the principal

                                      -86-
<PAGE>   98

debt, together with all other sums payable by Mortgagor in accordance with the
provisions of the Mortgage Notes and this Mortgage, and all sums which may have
been advanced by the Mortgagee for taxes, water or sewer rents, charges or
claims, payment on prior liens, insurance or repairs to the Properties, all
costs of suit, together with interest thereon at such interest rate as may be
awarded in any judgment obtained by the Mortgagee, as the case may be, from and
after the date of any foreclosure sale until actual payment is made to the
Mortgagee of the full amount due the Mortgagee, and attorneys' fees through and
including all appellate levels; and

            (c) to sell, assign, transfer and deliver the whole or, from time to
time, any part of any Property, or any interest in any part thereof, at any
private sale or at public auction permitted by law, with such demand,
advertisement or notice as required by law, and on such other terms as required
or permitted by law.

Before taking title to any Property, the Mortgagee, at the expense of the
Mortgagor, may determine whether any environmental hazards exist at the Property
in respect of which the Mortgagee may become liable by taking title, which
determination may include the performance of an environmental audit of the
Property by a qualified professional if the Mortgagee determines that reasonable
prudence warrants the performance of such an audit.

            25.2. The Mortgagor's Waivers. It shall not be necessary for the
Mortgagee to have actual or constructive possession of any part of any Property
in order to pass the title to and the right of possession of said Property, and
the title to and the right of possession of said property shall pass to the
purchaser or purchasers thereof at any sale hereunder as fully as if the same
actually had been present and delivered. To the fullest extent allowed by
applicable law, upon foreclosure of this Mortgage whether by power of sale, or
any other nonjudicial or judicial foreclosure process, the Mortgagor or any
person claiming any part of any Property by, through or under the Mortgagor
shall not be entitled to direct the order of sale or to a marshalling of assets
or a sale in inverse order of alienation. The recitals and statements of fact
contained in any notice or in any conveyance to the purchaser or purchasers at
any sale hereunder shall be prima facie evidence of the truth of such facts, and
all prerequisites and requirements necessary to the validity of any such sale
shall be presumed to have been performed. In the event of a foreclosure sale, to
the extent that the Mortgagor is in

                                      -87-
<PAGE>   99

possession of the Premises, the Mortgagor shall be deemed a tenant at will of
the purchaser at such judicial foreclosure sale and shall be liable for a
reasonable rental for the use of the Premises; and if the Mortgagor refuses to
surrender possession of the Premises upon demand, the purchaser shall be
entitled to institute and maintain the statutory action of forcible entry and
detainer and procure a writ of possession thereunder, and the Mortgagor
expressly waives all damages sustained by reason thereof and the Mortgagor
agrees to pay to the purchaser the reasonable costs and expenses (including all
reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses) of such action and writ, subject to the
provisions of Article 38.

            25.3. Recovery of Advances. Subject to the provisions of Article 35
and subject to the provisions of Article 38, the Mortgagee shall have the right,
from time to time, to bring an appropriate action to recover any sums required
to be paid by the Mortgagor under the terms of this Mortgage and/or the Mortgage
Notes as they become due, without regard to whether the principal indebtedness
evidenced by the Mortgage Notes or any other sums secured by this Mortgage shall
be due, and without prejudice to the right of the Mortgagee thereafter to bring
an action of foreclosure, or any other action, for any default by the Mortgagor
existing at the time the earlier action was commenced.

            25.4. Sale. Upon the completion of any sale or sales of any Property
by virtue of this Article 25, the Mortgagee or any officer of any court
empowered to do so, shall execute and deliver to the accepted purchaser or
purchasers, good and sufficient instrument or instruments (subject to the
provisions of Article 38 hereof), conveying, assigning and transferring all
estate, right, title and interest in and to the property and rights sold. In
such event, the Mortgagee is hereby irrevocably appointed the true and lawful
attorney of the Mortgagor, in its name and stead, to make all the necessary
conveyances, assignments, transfers and deliveries of any part of the Property
and rights so sold, and for that purpose the Mortgagee may execute all necessary
instruments of conveyance, assignment and transfer and may substitute one or
more persons with like power. Any such sale or sales shall operate to divest all
the estate, right, title, interest, claim and demand whatsoever, whether at law
or in equity, of the Mortgagor in and to the properties, interests and rights so
sold, and shall be a perpetual bar both at law and in equity against the
Mortgagor and against any and all persons claiming or

                                      -88-
<PAGE>   100

who may claim the same, or any part thereof from, through or under the
Mortgagor.

            25.5. Several Parcels. If any Event of Default shall have occurred
and the Mortgage Notes shall have been declared due and payable, the Mortgagee
shall have the right to sell each of the Properties individually or collectively
in such manner and order as it may determine, and the right of sale hereunder
shall not be exhausted by one or more sales, but successive sales may be had
until all of the Properties have been legally sold. In the event any sale
hereunder is not completed or is defective in the opinion of the Mortgagee, such
sale shall not exhaust the power of sale hereunder, and the Mortgagee shall have
the right to cause a subsequent sale or sales.

            25.6. Mortgage Notes Become Due on Foreclosure Sale. Upon any sale
of any or all of the Properties by the Mortgagee under or by virtue of this
Mortgage, whether pursuant to foreclosure or power of sale or otherwise in
accordance with the provisions of this Mortgage, the entire unpaid principal
amount of the Mortgage Notes at the time outstanding shall, if not previously
declared due and payable, immediately become due and payable, together with the
interest accrued thereon and any applicable Make-Whole Obligation which would
then be payable, and any other indebtedness which this Mortgage by its terms
secures.

            26. MORTGAGEE AUTHORIZED TO EXECUTE INSTRUMENTS. The Mortgagor
irrevocably appoints (which appointment is coupled with an interest) the
Mortgagee the true and lawful attorney-in-fact of the Mortgagor, in its name and
stead and on its behalf, for the purpose of effectuating any sale, assignment,
transfer or delivery for the enforcement of this Mortgage after the occurrence
and during the continuance of an Event of Default hereunder, to execute and
deliver all such deeds, assignments, bills of sale and other instruments
(without recourse, warranty or representation of any kind) as the Mortgagee may
consider necessary or appropriate, with full power of substitution, the
Mortgagor hereby ratifying and confirming all that such attorney or any
substitutes shall lawfully do by virtue hereof. Nevertheless, if so requested by
the Mortgagee or any purchaser, the Mortgagor shall ratify and confirm any such
sale, assignment, transfer or delivery by executing and delivering to the
Mortgagee or such purchaser all deeds, assignments, bills of sale, releases and
other proper instruments (which in each case shall be without recourse to or
representation or warranty by the Mortgagor) to effect such ratification and
confirmation as may be designated in any such request.

                                      -89-
<PAGE>   101

            27. PURCHASE OF PROPERTIES BY MORTGAGEE. The Mortgagee, any Holder
individually, or any nominee of any of them may be a purchaser of any of the
Properties or of any interest therein at any sale thereof, and may apply to the
purchase price all or any part of the indebtedness secured hereby in lieu of
payment in cash of the amount of such indebtedness applied. Any such purchaser
shall, upon any such purchase, acquire good title to the properties so
purchased, free of the lien of this Mortgage and free of all rights of
redemption in the Mortgagor.

            28. RECEIPT A SUFFICIENT DISCHARGE TO PURCHASER. Upon any sale of a
Property after the Mortgage Notes become due and payable, whether at maturity,
by declaration of acceleration or by automatic acceleration after an Event of
Default or otherwise, the receipt of the Mortgagee or the receipt of the officer
making the sale under judicial proceedings shall, to the full extent legally
permitted, be sufficient discharge to the purchaser for the purchase money, and
such purchaser shall not be obligated to see to the application thereof.

            29. WAIVER OF MARSHALLING, APPRAISEMENT, APPRAISAL. The Mortgagor
hereby waives all rights, legal and equitable, it may now or hereafter have to
require marshalling of assets or to require upon foreclosure sales of assets in
a particular order. Each successor and assign of the Mortgagor, including a
holder of a lien subordinate to the lien created hereby (without implying that
Mortgagor has a right to grant an interest in, or a subordinate lien on, any of
the Properties), by acceptance of its interest or lien agrees that it shall be
bound by the above waiver, as if it gave the waiver itself. The Mortgagor also
hereby waives, to the full extent it may lawfully do so, the benefit of all laws
providing for rights of appraisement, appraisal, stay or extension or of
redemption after foreclosure now or hereafter in force.

            30. SALE SHALL BE A BAR AGAINST MORTGAGOR. The sale of any Property
in connection with the exercise of remedies under this Mortgage after the
Mortgage Notes become due and payable, whether at maturity, by declaration of
acceleration or by automatic acceleration after an Event of Default or
otherwise, shall, to the full extent legally permitted, forever be a perpetual
bar against the Mortgagor's asserting any claim to title to the Property.

            31. APPLICATION OF PROCEEDS OF SALE. The proceeds of any sale of
any Property or any part thereof or any interest therein, after the Mortgage
Notes become due and

                                      -90-
<PAGE>   102

payable, whether at maturity, by declaration of acceleration or by automatic
acceleration after an Event of Default or otherwise, together with any other
moneys and the proceeds of any Credit Facilities or Eligible Collateral at the
time held by the Mortgagee as part of the Property, shall be applied as set
forth in Section 5.6 of the Indenture except that reference to the term "Notes"
or any "Class" of "Notes" in the Indenture shall be deemed to be a reference to
the Mortgage Notes or the corresponding Class of Mortgage Notes hereunder.

            32. APPOINTMENT OF RECEIVER. If an Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing, the Mortgagee shall, to the fullest extent permitted
by law, as a matter of right, be entitled to the appointment of a receiver for
all or any part of the Properties, whether such receivership be incidental to a
proposed sale of the Properties or otherwise, and the Mortgagor hereby consents
to the appointment of such a receiver and will not oppose any such appointment.

            33. POSSESSION, MANAGEMENT AND INCOME. If an Event of Default shall
have occurred and be continuing, the Mortgagee, with such notice, if any, to the
Mortgagor as required by law or as the Mortgagee considers appropriate in the
circumstances, and subject to the rights of Tenants and the provisions of
applicable law, may immediately enter upon and take possession of the Premises
of each of the Properties by self-help, summary proceedings, ejectment or
otherwise, and may remove the Mortgagor and all other Persons and any and all
property therefrom, and may hold, operate and manage the same and receive all
earnings, income, rents, issues and proceeds accruing with respect thereto;
provided, however, that upon the cure of such Event of Default within the
permitted time, and if no other Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, the Mortgagee will convey possession of such Premises back to the
Mortgagor. The Mortgagee shall be under no liability for or by reason of any
such taking of possession, entry, removal or holding, operation or management,
except (i) for its gross negligence or willful misconduct or (ii) to the extent
required by applicable law, and except that any amounts so received by the
Mortgagee shall be applied as set forth in Section 5.6 of the Indenture except
that reference to the term "Notes" or any "Class" of "Notes" in the Indenture
shall be deemed to be a reference to the Mortgage Notes or the corresponding
Class of Mortgage Notes hereunder.

                                      -91-
<PAGE>   103

            At the request of the Mortgagee, the Mortgagor shall promptly
execute and deliver to the Mortgagee such deeds, instruments of assignment and
other documents as the Mortgagee may deem necessary or advisable to enable the
Mortgagee or any agent or representative designated by the Mortgagee, at such
time or times and place or places as the Mortgagee may reasonably specify, to
obtain possession of all or any portion or portions of the Properties to which
the Mortgagee shall at the time be entitled hereunder, subject to the rights of
Tenants.

            If the Mortgagor shall fail for any reason to execute and deliver
such instrument or document after such request by the Mortgagee, the Mortgagee,
to the fullest extent permitted by law, may (i) obtain a judgment conferring on
the Mortgagee the right to immediate possession and requiring the Mortgagor to
execute and deliver such instruments and documents to the Mortgagee, which entry
of judgment the Mortgagor, to the extent it may lawfully do so, hereby
specifically consents and (ii) pursue the Properties wherever it may be found
and to the extent lawfully permitted, take possession of and remove the same,
subject to the rights of Tenants.

            Upon every such taking of possession, the Mortgagee may (but shall
have no obligation), from time to time, at the expense of the Mortgagor and such
expenses to constitute additional indebtedness secured by the affected Property,
make all such expenditures for maintenance, insurance, repairs, replacements,
alterations, additions and improvements to and of the Premises of such Property,
as it may deem proper. In such case, the Mortgagee, to the fullest extent
permitted by law, shall have the right to manage, control, use, operate, store,
lease or otherwise deal with such Property and to carry on the business and
exercise all the rights and powers of the Mortgagor relating to such Property,
as the Mortgagee shall deem best, including the right to enter into any and all
such agreements with respect to the management, cleaning, control, use,
operation, storage, leasing of or otherwise dealing with the Property, or any
part thereof, as the Mortgagee may determine; and, to the fullest extent
permitted by law, the Mortgagee shall be entitled to collect and receive all
tolls, rents, revenues, issues, income, products and profits of the Property and
every part thereof, without prejudice, however, to the right of the Mortgagee
under any provision of this Mortgage to collect and receive all cash held by, or
required to be deposited with, the Mortgagee hereunder. Such tolls, rents,
revenues, issues, income, products and profits shall be applied to pay the

                                      -92-
<PAGE>   104

expenses of the management, control, use, operation, storage, leasing of or
otherwise dealing with the Premises and of conducting the business thereof, and
of all maintenance, repairs, replacements, alterations, additions and
improvements, and to make all payments which the Mortgagee may be required or
may elect to make, if any, for Impositions, or other taxes, assessments,
insurance or other proper charges upon the Premises or any part thereof
(including the employment of engineers and accountants to examine, inspect and
make reports), and all other payments which the Mortgagee may be required or
authorized to make under any provision of this Mortgage, as well as just and
reasonable compensation for the services of the Mortgagee, and all persons
properly engaged or employed by the Mortgagee.

            34. RIGHT OF MORTGAGEE TO PERFORM MORTGAGOR'S COVENANTS. If the
Mortgagor shall fail to make any payment or perform any act required to be made
or performed here under, the Mortgagee, upon notice to the Mortgagor and upon
the expiration of any applicable grace or cure period provided in Article 23
(except in cases of emergency that threaten bodily injury or material damage to
property, in which case the Mortgagee will allow such notice and grace or cure
period, if any, as is reasonable under the circumstances) and subject to the
Mortgagor's right of contest under Article 12 hereof, but without waiving or
releasing any obligation, Default or Event of Default, may (but shall be under
no obligation to) at any time thereafter make such payment or perform such act
for the account and at the expense of the Mortgagor, and, to the extent
permitted by applicable law, may enter upon the Premises of such Property for
such purpose and take all such action thereon as, in the judgment of the
Mortgagee, may be reasonably necessary or appropriate therefor, subject to the
rights of Tenants. All sums so paid by the Mortgagee and all reasonable costs
and expenses (including all attorneys' fees and expenses) so incurred, together
with interest thereon at the Default Rate from the date of payment by the
Mortgagee until paid, shall constitute additional indebtedness secured by this
Mortgage and, subject to the provisions of Article 38 hereof, shall be paid by
the Mortgagor to the Mortgagee, for the benefit of the Holders, upon demand
therefor.

            35. REMEDIES CUMULATIVE. Subject to the provisions of Article 38
hereof, to the extent permitted under applicable law each right, power and
remedy of the Mortgagee provided for in this Mortgage or now or hereafter
existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise shall be cumulative and
concurrent and shall be in addition

                                      -93-
<PAGE>   105

to every other right, power or remedy provided for in this Mortgage or now or
hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute (including the Uniform
Commercial Code as enacted in the State where each of the Properties is located)
or otherwise, and the exercise or beginning of the exercise by the Mortgagee of
any one or more of the rights, powers or remedies provided for in this Mortgage
or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise
shall not preclude the simultaneous or later exercise by the Mortgagee, to the
extent permitted by law, of any or all of such other rights, powers or remedies.
The Mortgagee shall not exercise or seek to exercise, or accept the performance
or acquiescence by the Mortgagor under, any remedy provided for the benefit of
the Mortgagee in any Security Document other than this Mortgage, until the
Mortgagee has exhausted its remedies under this Mortgage, nor shall the
Mortgagee take any action after an Event of Default, including seeking interim
relief or partial recovery from the Property, the taking of which would restrict
or impair the ability of the Mortgagee to proceed, or which would preclude the
Mortgagee from proceeding, against the entire Premises for the benefit of the
Holders.

            36. APPLICABLE LAW. (a) All rights, powers and remedies provided
herein may be exercised only to the extent that the exercise thereof, including
those which do not require the giving of notice, does not violate any applicable
law, and are intended to be limited to the extent necessary so that they will
not render this Mortgage invalid, unenforceable or not entitled to be recorded,
registered or filed under any applicable law. All waivers, consents, confessions
and releases provided for in this Mortgage are effective only to the extent
permitted by applicable law.

            (b) This Mortgage was negotiated and made by Mortgagor in the State
of New York, and the proceeds of the loans secured hereby were disbursed from
New York, which State the parties agree has a substantial relationship to the
parties and to the underlying transaction embodied hereby. In all respects, the
law of the State of New York shall govern the validity of and enforceability of
this Mortgage, except that the creation, validity, perfection, priority and
enforceability of the lien and security interest created by this Mortgage, all
warranties of title contained herein with respect to the Properties and all
provisions hereof relating to the realization of the security covered by this
Mortgage shall be governed by the laws of the State in which each of the
Properties that is

                                      -94-
<PAGE>   106

the subject of dispute is located (as further described in Articles 58, 59, 60,
61, 62, 63 and 64 and the Mortgagor and the Mortgagee will submit to
jurisdiction and the laying of venue for any suit on this Mortgage in such
State).

            37. NO WAIVER. No failure by the Mortgagee to insist upon the strict
performance of any term hereof or to exercise any right, power or remedy
consequent upon a breach thereof shall constitute a waiver of any such term or
of any such breach. No waiver of any breach shall affect or alter this Mortgage,
which shall continue in full force and effect, or shall affect or alter the
rights of the Mortgagee with respect to any other then existing or subsequent
breach. Neither the Mortgagor nor any other person now or hereafter obligated
for payment of all or any part of the sums now or hereafter secured by this
Mortgage shall be relieved of such obligation by reason of the failure of the
Mortgagee to comply with any request of the Mortgagor or of any other person so
obligated, to take action to foreclose on this Mortgage or otherwise to enforce
any provisions of this Mortgage or the Mortgage Notes or by reason of the
release, regardless of consideration, of all or any part of the security held
for the indebtedness secured by this Mortgage, or by reason of any agreement or
stipulation between any subsequent owner of any of the Properties and the
Mortgagee extending the time of payment or modifying the terms of this Mortgage
or the Mortgage Notes without first having obtained the consent of the Mortgagor
or such other persons; and in the latter event the Mortgagor and all such other
persons shall continue to be liable, subject to Article 38, to make payments
according to the terms of any such extension or modification agreement, unless
expressly released and discharged in writing by the Mortgagee.

            38. OBLIGATIONS ARE WITHOUT RECOURSE. (a) Anything contained in this
Mortgage or in the Mortgage Notes or the other Mortgage Security Documents to
the contrary notwithstanding (except for the liability of the Mortgagor for
fraud, intentional misrepresentation, misapplication of proceeds or rentals as
provided below), the Mortgagee's recourse for the satisfaction of the
indebtedness due under the Mortgage Notes and for the payment and performance of
all of the obligations and liabilities of the Mortgagor under this Mortgage or
the other Mortgage Security Documents shall be limited solely to the Mortgagor's
interest in the Properties and the other Mortgage Collateral, and none of the
Mortgagor nor any of its respective successors or assigns, nor any partner
(general or limited, or a subpartner at any level), member,

                                      -95-
<PAGE>   107

tenant in common, officer, director, trustee, beneficiary, shareholder,
controlling person, employee, agent or Affiliate of any of the foregoing
(collectively, "Exculpated Persons") shall be liable in any other respect for
(i) the payment of the principal of, or interest or Make-Whole Obligations, if
any, on the Mortgage Notes, or (ii) the payment of any other amount due under
the Mortgage Notes, this Mortgage or the other Mortgage Security Documents, or
(iii) for damages for the breach of, or any costs or expenses associated with
the performance of or failure to perform, any of the covenants, obligations,
representations and warranties or indemnifications contained herein or in the
Mortgage Notes, this Mortgage or the other Mortgage Security Documents (other
than as expressly provided with respect to the Mortgagor in the Environmental
Indemnity; provided, however, that the foregoing limitation of the Mortgagee's
recourse as it applies to the Mortgagor shall not apply to any liabilities,
obligations, claims, damages, penalties, causes of action, costs and expenses
(including all reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses) imposed upon or incurred
by or asserted against the Mortgagee, the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the
Special Servicer or the Holders by reason of the occurrence or existence of any
of following prior to the payment in full of the Mortgage Notes: (i) fraud
committed by the Mortgagor; (ii) an intentional and material misrepresentation
by the Mortgagor; (iii) the application of any Proceeds received by the
Mortgagor after a casualty or condemnation in a manner other than that required
by the terms of this Mortgage and the Cash Management Agreement; or, (iv) after
an Event of Default shall have occurred which shall be continuing, the
application by the Mortgagor of the rentals under any Lease or of any security
deposit under any Lease in a manner other than that required by the terms of
this Mortgage and the Cash Management Agreement; provided, however, that in
either case (i) or (ii) the Mortgagee's recourse to the Mortgagor shall be
limited to the damages resulting from such fraud or intentional
misrepresentation and in either case (iii) or (iv) the Mortgagee's recourse to
the Mortgagor shall be limited to the amount of such misapplied Proceeds or
rentals by Mortgagor and no other property or assets of Mortgagor, or of any of
Mortgagor's directors, officers, employees or shareholders, shall be subject to
any lien, levy, execution, or other enforcement procedure in connection with
such recourse. The Mortgagee, by its acceptance of the Mortgage Notes, agrees
that, in the event it pursues any remedies available to it hereunder or under
the Mortgage Notes or the other Mortgage Security Documents, the Mortgagee shall
not have recourse to the Exculpated Persons for any deficiency, loss or claim
for damages resulting therefrom, and none of

                                      -96-
<PAGE>   108

the property or assets of any of the Exculpated Persons other than the
Properties shall be subject to levy, execution, garnishment, attachment,
foreclosure or other enforcement procedure for the satisfaction of the remedies
of the Mortgagee hereunder, but nothing contained herein shall (i) constitute a
waiver of any indebtedness evidenced by the Mortgage Notes or secured by this
Mortgage or the other Mortgage Security Documents, or (ii) be taken to prevent
recourse to or the enforcement of remedies against any of the Properties or any
other Mortgage Collateral in respect of any and all liabilities, obligations and
undertakings contained herein or in the Mortgage Notes. In addition, each
document which is executed by Mortgagor and/or any Exculpated Person pursuant to
or in connection with this Mortgage, the Mortgage Notes and/or the other
Mortgage Security Documents shall either expressly incorporate, or shall be
deemed to incorporate, the non-recourse provisions contained in this Article
38. For purposes of this Section 38(a), each and every reference to "Mortgagee"
(including the possessory thereof) shall mean Mortgagee, its successors and
assigns, and all persons and/or entities whose rights under this document arise
by, through or under Mortgagee, its successors and/or assigns.

            In addition, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the
Mortgage Notes, this Mortgage, the Indenture or any other Security Document,
with respect to each Mortgagor, the total liability of that Mortgagor under the
Mortgage Notes, this Mortgage, and each other Mortgage Security Document shall
not

            (i) at any time during the period from the date hereof to a date one
      year and a day after the date hereof exceed the sum of (A) the Allocated
      Amount for the Property identified on Exhibit A as being owned by such
      Mortgagor plus (B) such Mortgagor's Net Worth on the date hereof, less (C)
      $1,000, and

            (ii) at any time after the period referred to in clause (i) above
      exceed the sum of (A) the Allocated Amount for the Property identified on
      Exhibit A as being owned by such Mortgagor plus (B) the greater of such
      Mortgagor's Net Worth on the date hereof and such Mortgagor's Net Worth on
      the date such determination is being made (it being understood that for
      purposes of determining such Mortgagor's Net Worth on any date subsequent
      to the date that is one year and a day after the date hereof, such
      Mortgagor's liabilities shall only include liabilities that are permitted
      under the

                                      -97-
<PAGE>   109

      terms of the Mortgage Security Documents), less (C) $1,000.

            For purposes of the foregoing, "Net Worth" of a Mortgagor shall mean
      the positive net worth of such Mortgagor (net of the Allocated Amount for
      the Property identified on Exhibit A as being owned by such Mortgagor),
      based on the sum of (x) the fair saleable value of its assets (determined
      after giving effect to distributions, if any, by such Mortgagor to such
      Mortgagor's partners, members or other equity investors, as applicable, of
      the proceeds of the Mortgage Loan received by such Mortgagor on account of
      the issuance of the Mortgage Notes and determined in accordance with
      applicable laws governing determinations of the insolvency of debtors),
      less (y) its liabilities (determined as in clause (x) above), including a
      portion of the Mortgage Loan equal to the Allocated Amount for the
      Property identified on Exhibit A as being owned by such Mortgagor, but
      excluding amounts payable under the Mortgage Notes, this Mortgage, the
      Indenture and any other Mortgage Security Documents in excess of such
      Allocated Amount.

Each document that is executed by any Mortgagor and/or any other Exculpated
Persons pursuant to or in connection with this Mortgage and/or any other
Mortgage Security Documents shall either expressly incorporate, or shall be
deemed to incorporate, the provisions contained in this Article 38.

            (b) It is expressly understood and agreed that nothing herein nor
any act of the Mortgagor, nor any document or instrument executed by the
Mortgagor in connection herewith shall create or impose on the Mortgagor or any
other Exculpated Persons any personal liability, other than to the extent
expressly provided with respect to the Mortgagor in the Environmental Indemnity;
and this Mortgage is executed by the Mortgagor with the express understanding
and agreement that nothing herein contained or under any of the Mortgage
Security Documents (including the Indenture and the Mortgage Notes) shall be
construed as creating any liability on the part of the Mortgagor or any other
Exculpated Persons personally, other than to the extent expressly provided with
respect to the Mortgagor in the Environmental Indemnity; to pay the principal
obligation or any interest that may accrue thereon or any indebtedness that may
accrue hereunder or under any of the Mortgage Security Documents (including the
Indenture and the Mortgage Notes) or to perform any covenant, either express or
implied, herein contained, and that every Person now or

                                      -98-
<PAGE>   110

hereafter claiming any right or security hereunder shall look solely to the
Properties and the other Mortgage Collateral for the payment thereof and the
enforcement of any lien hereby created or the enforcement of any covenant,
condition or agreement contained herein or under any of the Mortgage Security
Documents (including the Indenture and the Mortgage Notes).

            (c) The provisions of Section 38(a) and (b) hereof shall not (i)
constitute a waiver, release or impairment of any obligation of the Mortgagor
(without recourse to its partners, members or other equity investors) evidenced
or secured by the Mortgage Notes, this Mortgage or any other Mortgage Security
Document to the extent that it would impair the Mortgagee's right or ability to
declare an Event of Default or accelerate the maturity of the Mortgage Notes,
(ii) constitute a waiver of the Mortgagee's right under Section 1111(b) of the
United States Bankruptcy Code to claim against the Mortgagor (without recourse
to its partners, members or other equity investors, other than to the extent
expressly provided with respect to the Mortgagor in the Environmental Indemnity)
the full amount of the indebtedness evidenced by the Mortgage Notes or incurred
pursuant to any of the other Mortgage Security Documents or (iii) impair the
right of the Mortgagee to obtain a deficiency judgment (without recourse to any
partner, member or other equity investor in the Mortgagor, other than to the
extent expressly provided with respect to the Mortgagor in the Environmental
Indemnity) in any action or proceeding in order to preserve its rights and
remedies against the Properties and the other Mortgage Collateral as to which a
lien is granted hereunder, including, without limitation, foreclosure,
nonjudicial foreclosure or the exercise of a power of sale, under this Mortgage
or the other Mortgage Collateral.

            39. STAMP AND OTHER TAXES. Subject to the provisions of Article 12
relating to permitted contests, the Mortgagor will pay any United States
documentary stamp taxes, with interest and fines and penalties, if any, and any
city, county or state mortgage recording taxes, with interest and fines and
penalties, if any, that may hereafter be levied, imposed or assessed under or
upon or by reason of this Mortgage or any instrument or transaction affecting or
relating to either thereof. In the event of the Mortgagor's default thereof, the
Mortgagee may advance the same and the amount so advanced shall be due and
payable by the Mortgagor to the Mortgagee within ten days after demand therefor,
together with interest thereon at the Default Rate. The Mortgagor shall not be
obligated to pay any taxes which may be imposed upon the income of the
Mortgagee.

                                      -99-
<PAGE>   111

            40. FURTHER ASSURANCES. The Mortgagor, at its own expense, will
execute, acknowledge and deliver all such instruments and take all such actions
as the Mortgagee from time to time reasonably may request or as may be
reasonably necessary or proper for the better assuring to the Mortgagee of the
properties and rights now or hereafter subject to the lien hereof or intended so
to be.

            41. ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATES. The Mortgagor and the Mortgagee each
will, from time to time, upon twenty days' prior written request by the other
party, execute, acknowledge and deliver to the requesting party, in the case of
a request to the Mortgagee, an Officers' Certificate signed by an authorized
officer or officers and in the case of a request to the Mortgagor, an Officers'
Certificate from the Mortgagor, stating that this Mortgage is unmodified and in
full force and effect (or, if there have been modifications, that this Mortgage
is in full force and effect as modified and setting forth such modifications)
and stating the interest accrued to date on the aggregate principal amount of
the Mortgage Notes. The estoppel certificate from the Mortgagee shall also state
either that, to the best knowledge of the signer of such certificate and based
on no independent investigation, no Default or Event of Default exists hereunder
or, if any Default or Event of Default shall exist hereunder, specify each
Default or Event of Default of which the Mortgagee has actual knowledge.

            42. ADDITIONAL SECURITY. Without notice to or consent of the
Mortgagor and without impairment of the lien and rights created by this
Mortgage, the Mortgagee may accept (but the Mortgagor shall not be obligated to
furnish) from the Mortgagor or from any other Person or Persons, additional
security for the Mortgage Notes. Neither the giving of this Mortgage nor the
acceptance of any such additional security shall prevent the Mortgagee from
resorting, first, to such additional security, and, second, to the security
created by this Mortgage without affecting the Mortgagee's interest under this
Mortgage, subject, however, to the provisions of Article 35 of this Mortgage.

            43. FINANCING STATEMENT. This Mortgage shall be deemed to be and may
be enforced from time to time as a mortgage, chattel mortgage, assignment,
contract, security agreement, financing statement, or lien on machinery situated
on the Premises, and from time to time as any one or more thereof, and shall
constitute a "fixture filing" for the purposes of Article 9 of the Uniform
Commercial Code as enacted in the State where each Property is located.

            44. RELEASE; SUBSTITUTE PROPERTY. (a) (i) If the Mortgagor shall pay
the principal of and interest on the Mortgage Notes in full at Maturity and all
other sums payable to the Mortgagee hereunder by the Mortgagor or secured hereby
or by the other Mortgage Security Documents, then this Mortgage and all the
other Mortgage Security Documents shall be discharged and satisfied or assigned
(to the Mortgagor or to any other Person at the Mortgagor's direction), at the
Mortgagor's option, without warranty, other than for the acts of the Mortgagee,
at the expense of the Mortgagor upon its written request. Concurrently with such
release and satisfaction or assignment of this Mortgage and all the other
Mortgage Security Documents, the Mortgagee will return to the Mortgagor all
title and other insurance policies relating to the Properties and, on the
written request and at the expense of the Mortgagor, will execute and deliver
such proper instruments of release (including appropriate UCC-3 termination
statements) as may reasonably be requested by the Mortgagor to evidence such
release and satisfaction or assignment, and any such instrument, when duly
executed by the Mortgagee and duly recorded in the places where this Mortgage
and each other Mortgage Security Document is recorded, shall conclusively
evidence the release and satisfaction or assignment of this Mortgage and the
other Mortgage Security Documents and (x) if the Mortgagor has elected to assign
this Mortgage, the Mortgagee shall assign the Mortgage Notes to the Mortgagor or
its designee and (y) if the Mortgagor has not elected to assign this Mortgage,
the Mortgagee shall cancel the Mortgage Notes and return them to the Mortgagor.

            (ii) Except as otherwise provided in Article 15 or 16, if prior to
the Maturity Date the Mortgagor shall pay 125% of the Allocated Amount of a
Property (each, a "Release Property") together with (x) interest on such amount
to the date of payment and if such date is not a Payment Date, through the next
Payment Date, (y) the Make-Whole Payment, if any, and (z) all other sums then
payable to the Mortgagee hereunder by the Mortgagor, then Mortgagor shall
release the lien of this Mortgage with respect to the Release Property (or, at
the option of Mortgagor, split the Mortgage into two Mortgages (one of which
would be a lien on the Release Property and would secure 125% of the Allocated
Amount of the Release Property (the "Split Mortgage") and the other of which
would be a lien on the other Properties and would secure the remaining
indebtedness evidenced by the Mortgage Notes) and split the Mortgage Notes (so
that a new mortgage note is created evidencing 125% of the Allocated Amount of
the Release Property (the "Split Note") and the Mortgage Notes are appropriately
reduced), and assign the Split

                                     -101-
<PAGE>   113

Mortgage and the Split Note to the Mortgagor or its designee without warranty,
other than for the acts of the Mortgagee, at the expense of the Mortgagor) and
release the lien of the other Mortgage Security Documents relating to such
Property. For purposes of this Section 44, the term "Make-Whole Payment" shall
mean:

            (1) if pursuant to the Indenture and in connection with the release
      of the lien of the Mortgage from the Release Property, Vornado Finance is
      required to defease Notes in a principal amount equal to the principal
      amount of Mortgage Notes being paid under this Section 44(a)(ii), an
      amount equal to the excess, if any of (x) the amount required to be paid
      by Vornado Finance to accomplish such defeasance over (y) the amount of
      principal and interest paid by the Mortgagor under this Section 44(a)(ii)
      in order to release such Property; or

            (2) if clause (1) does not apply, zero.

Concurrently with such release and satisfaction or assignment, the Mortgagee
will return to the Mortgagor all title and other insurance policies relating to
such Property and, on the written request and at the expense of the Mortgagor,
will execute and deliver such proper instruments of release (including
appropriate UCC-3 termination statements) as may reasonably be requested by the
Mortgagor to evidence such release and satisfaction or assignment. The Mortgagee
shall also pay over to the Mortgagor that is the owner of such Property all
amounts held in any Reserve Accounts that relate to such Property.

            Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the Mortgagor
desires to obtain a release from the lien of this Mortgage of, all or any one of
the Properties described in Exhibit A hereto, the Mortgagee shall consent to the
release of the Release Property or Properties from the lien of this Mortgage
provided that (i) the Mortgagor shall have given at least 15 days' prior written
notice of the date proposed for such release (the "Release Date"), (ii) no Event
of Default shall have occurred and be continuing as of the Release Date, unless
the proposed release, by itself, will eliminate the basis of all outstanding
Events of Default, in which case the requirement of this clause (ii) will be
deemed to be satisfied, (iii) in no event would such release result in a
decrease in the Debt Service Coverage Ratio below the greater of (A) the Debt
Service Coverage Ratio as of the most recent Debt Service Coverage Ratio
Calculation Date immediately preceding such Release and (B)

                                     -102-
<PAGE>   114

1.56:1, (iv) Vornado Finance shall simultaneously with such Release defease or,
if permitted by the terms of the Indenture, redeem, a principal amount of Notes
that is equal to the principal amount of Mortgage Notes being prepaid in
connection with such Release pursuant to the terms of the Indenture, and (v) the
Mortgagor shall have delivered to the Mortgagee an Officer's Certificate
confirming the matters referred to in clauses (ii), (iii) and (v) above. In
determining whether the Debt Service Coverage Ratio test is satisfied for
purposes of this Section 44(a)(ii), Net Cash Flow shall be calculated with
proper adjustment to both Gross Revenue and Operating Expense to account for the
proposed release of the Release Property.

            Any prepayment made pursuant to this Section 44(a)(ii) shall be
applied to the Mortgage Notes in the following order of priority: first, to the
Class A-1 Mortgage Note until the Class A-1 Mortgage Note has been paid in full;
second, to the Class A-2 Mortgage Note until the Class A-2 Mortgage Note has
been paid in full; third, to the Class B Mortgage Note until the Class B
Mortgage Note has been paid in full; fourth, to the Class C Mortgage Note until
the Class C Mortgage Note has been paid in full; fifth, to the Class D Mortgage
Note until the Class D Mortgage Note has been paid in full; sixth, to the Class
E Mortgage Note until the Class E Mortgage Note has been paid in full; and
seventh, to the Class F Mortgage Note until the Class F Mortgage Note has been
paid in full.

            (b) Intentionally Omitted.

            (c) Intentionally Omitted.

            (d) Intentionally Omitted.

            (e) At any time and from time to time, the Mortgagor may, subject to
the conditions in this Section 44(e), substitute a property (a "Substitute
Property") for any individual existing Property (a "Replaced Property") provided
that the Allocated Amount of the Replaced Property together with all the
Allocated Amount of all previous Replaced Properties, does not exceed
twenty-five percent (25%) of the original principal amount of the Mortgage Loan.
From and after the substitution of a Substitute Property in accordance herewith,
such Substitute Property shall thereafter be deemed a Property under this
Mortgage, and, for the purpose of determining the Allocated Amount, the
Allocated Amount of the Replaced Property shall be the Allocated Amount of the
Substitute Property. In the event of a substitution, the Mortgage Notes shall
remain in full

                                     -103-

force and effect, and all necessary action shall be taken so that this Mortgage
shall encumber the Substitute Property. Concurrently with the completion of all
steps necessary to substitute a Substitute Property as provided herein, the
Mortgagee shall take or cause to be taken all actions as are necessary or
appropriate to release and discharge all liens granted to the Mortgagee and
affecting the Replaced Property.

            To qualify as a Substitute Property, the property must, at the time
of substitution:

      customary trade or business of the Mortgagor or commonly used in the
      operation of properties similar to the Properties (in either case in
      compliance with all environmental laws);

                  (iii) be in good repair and condition, as shall be certified
      by an Officer's Certificate of Mortgagor;

                  (iv) be in compliance, in all material respects, with Legal

                  (v) be owned by a Single Purpose Entity that is 100% directly
      or indirectly owned by Vornado Finance.

            In addition to the conditions in the preceding paragraph,
substitution of any Property pursuant to this Section 44(e) shall be subject to
the satisfaction of the following:

                  (i) delivery to the Mortgagee of written notice thereof from
      the Mortgagor at least thirty (30) days prior to the date of the proposed

      opinion of counsel delivered on the Closing Date after giving effect to
      such substitution and the delivery to the Mortgagee of a Tax Opinion;

                  (iii) the Mortgagor shall be in material compliance with all
      the terms and conditions of this Mortgage and the Mortgage Security
      Documents, and no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing;

                  (iv) the representations and warranties set forth in this
      Mortgage and the Mortgage Security Documents applicable to the Replaced
      Property shall be true and correct as to the Substitute Property on the
      Substitution Date in all material respects;

                  (v) delivery to the Mortgagee of a copy of the certificate of

      Property and all amendments thereto, certified as true, complete and
      correct by an authorized officer; a certificate from the Secretary of
      State or other applicable official or officer in the Mortgagor's state of

      state in which the Substitute Property is located, certifying as to the
      applicable Mortgagor's good standing as a corporation, partnership or

                  (vi) the Substitute Property shall be devoted principally to
      use as a shopping center of at least the same general character and
      quality as the Replaced Property;

            45. CHANGES IN LAW REGARDING TAXATION. In the event of the passage,
after the date of this Mortgage, of any law of any of the states in which any
Property is located changing in any way the laws for the taxation of mortgages
or debts secured by mortgages for state or local purposes or the manner of the
collection of any such taxes, and imposing a tax, either directly or indirectly,
on this Mortgage or the Mortgage Notes and resulting in an increase in the taxes
or other charges imposed on or incurred by the Mortgagee by reason of such
change in law, the Mortgagee may with the consent of Holders of a majority in
principal amount of the Outstanding Notes, at its option, upon 90 days' notice,
declare the aggregate Allocated Amount of all Properties in such State to be due
and payable (without premium or Make-Whole Obligation); provided, however, that
the Mortgagee shall not make such declaration and this Mortgage shall remain in
effect if, notwithstanding said law, (i) (x) the Mortgagor may lawfully pay such
taxes on behalf of the Mortgagee or (y) the Mortgagor and the Mortgagee may
lawfully, and do, enter into an enforceable agreement obligating the Mortgagor
to pay to the Mortgagee an amount equal to any increase in taxation or charges
imposed on or incurred by the Mortgagee by reason of such change in law (which
agreement shall thereupon become part of this Mortgage), and (ii) the Mortgagor
does in fact pay such taxes or such increases in taxation or charges, as
applicable; provided, however, that this Article 45 shall not apply to any taxes
which may arise in connection with the ownership or transfer of the Mortgage
Notes or the Notes or which may be imposed upon the income of the Mortgagee or
the Holders of the Notes.

            Any prepayment made pursuant to this Section 45 shall be applied to
the Mortgage Notes in the following order of priority: first, to the Class A-1
Mortgage Note until the Class A-1 Mortgage Note has been paid in full; second,
to the Class A-2 Mortgage Note until the Class A-2 Mortgage Note has been paid
in full; third, to the Class B Mortgage Note until the Class B Mortgage Note has
been paid in full; fourth, to the Class C Mortgage Note until the Class C
Mortgage Note has been paid in full; fifth, to the Class D Mortgage Note until
the Class D Mortgage Note has been paid in full; sixth, to the Class E Mortgage
Note until the Class E Mortgage Note has been paid in full; and seventh, to the
Class F Mortgage Note until the Class F Mortgage Note has been paid in full.

            46. PREPAYMENTS. (a) Mandatory Payments of Principal.

                  (i) On each Payment Date commencing with the Payment Date in
      April, 2000, the Mortgagee shall pay the Principal Installment Amount due
      on such Payment Date subject to adjustment pursuant to Section 46(a)(ii)
      below. All payments of Principal Installment Amounts shall be applied
      first, to the Class A-1 Mortgage Note until the Class A-1 Mortgage Note
      has been repaid in full; second, to the Class A-2 Mortgage Note until the
      Class A-2 Mortgage Note has been repaid in full; third, to the Class B
      Mortgage Note until the Class B Mortgage Note has been repaid in full;
      fourth, to the Class C Mortgage Note until the Class C Mortgage Note has
      been repaid in full; fifth, to the Class D Mortgage Note until the Class D
      Mortgage Note has been repaid in full; sixth, to the Class E Mortgage Note
      until the Class E Mortgage Note has been repaid in full; and finally, to
      the Class F Mortgage Note until the Class F Mortgage Note has been repaid
      in full.

                  (ii) If at any time any portion of the principal balance of
      the Mortgage Notes is prepaid (other than in the manner described in
      Section 46(a)(i) above), then the Principal Installment Amounts (and
      Exhibit I hereto) shall be adjusted as follows:

                  (A) if such prepayment of the Mortgage Notes results in the
            defeasance of a corresponding principal amount of Notes pursuant to
            the terms of the Indenture, then the Principal Installment Amounts
            set forth on Exhibit I hereto shall be revised to equal the
            Principal Installment Amounts (as defined in the Indenture) set
            forth on the Undefeased Amortization Schedule (as defined in and
            calculated pursuant to Section 4.3(b) of the Indenture);

                  (B) if such prepayment of the Mortgage Notes results in the
            redemption of a corresponding principal amount of Notes pursuant to
            the terms of the Indenture that occurs prior to the time that any
            Notes have been defeased pursuant to the Indenture, then the
            Principal Installment Amounts set forth on Exhibit I hereto shall be
            revised to equal the Principal Installment Amounts (as defined in
            the Indenture) as calculated pursuant to the terms of Section
            3.11(a)(ii) of the Indenture;

                                     -109-
<PAGE>   121

                  (C) if such prepayment of the Mortgage Notes results in the
            redemption of a corresponding principal amount of Notes pursuant to
            the terms of the Indenture that occurs after the time that any Notes
            have been defeased pursuant to the Indenture, then the Principal
            Installment Amounts set forth on Exhibit I hereto shall be revised
            to equal the Principal Installment Amounts (as defined in the
            Indenture) set forth on the Undefeased Amortization Schedule (as
            defined in the Indenture) as recalculated pursuant to the terms of
            Section 3.11(a)(ii) of the Indenture.

            The proceeds applied to prepay the Mortgage Notes pursuant to this
Section 46(a) shall be ratably applied to reduce the Allocated Amounts of each
Property based upon the respective Allocated Amounts of the Properties securing
the Mortgage Notes.

            (b) Voluntary Prepayments. The Mortgage Notes may be prepaid by the
Mortgagor at any time, in whole or in part, at the election of the Mortgagor
(and thereby reduce the principal amount secured by this Mortgage) upon payment
to the Mortgagee of

                  (i) the principal amount of the Mortgage Notes to be prepaid;

                  (ii) interest on such amount to the date of prepayment and if
      such date is not an Payment Date, through the next Payment Date;

                  (iii) the Make-Whole Payment, if any; and

                  (iv) all other sums then payable to the Mortgagee hereunder by
      the Mortgagor (including all expenses of the Mortgagee in connection with
      such prepayment);

provided, however, that simultaneously with such prepayment, Vornado Finance
shall defease or, if permitted by the terms of the Indenture, redeem a principal
amount of Notes that is equal to the principal amount of Mortgage Notes being
prepaid pursuant to the terms of the Indenture.

            For purposes of this Section 46(b), the term "Make-Whole Payment"
shall mean:

            (1) if pursuant to the Indenture and in connection with such
      prepayment of the Mortgage Notes,

                                     -110-
<PAGE>   122

      Vornado Finance is required to defease Notes in a principal amount equal
      to the principal amount of the Mortgage Notes being paid under this
      Section 46(b), an amount equal to the excess, if any of (x) the amount
      required to be paid by Vornado Finance to accomplish such defeasance over
      (y) the amount of principal and interest paid by the Mortgagor under this
      Section 46(b)(ii) in connection with such prepayment of the Mortgage
      Notes; or

            (2) if clause (1) does not apply, zero.

            The proceeds applied to prepay the Mortgage Notes shall be deemed to
be first applied to satisfy the Make-Whole Payment, if any, applicable to such
prepayment and then shall be ratably applied to reduce the Allocated Amounts of
each Property based upon the respective Allocated Amounts of the Properties
securing the Mortgage Notes unless (i) the Mortgagor elects to release one or
more of the Properties in connection with such prepayment in accordance with
Section 44 or (ii) such prepayment is made in respect of a sale of Expansion
Space at a particular Property, in which case the Allocated Amount of such
Property shall be reduced.

            Any prepayment made pursuant to this Section 46(b) shall be applied
to the Mortgage Notes in the following order of priority: first, to the Class
A-1 Mortgage Note until the Class A-1 Mortgage Note has been paid in full;
second, to the Class A-2 Mortgage Note until the Class A-2 Mortgage Note has
been paid in full; third, to the Class B Mortgage Note until the Class B
Mortgage Note has been paid in full; fourth, to the Class C Mortgage Note until
the Class C Mortgage Note has been paid in full; fifth, to the Class D Mortgage
Note until the Class D Mortgage Note has been paid in full; sixth, to the Class
E Mortgage Note until the Class E Mortgage Note has been paid in full; and
seventh, to the Class F Mortgage Note until the Class F Mortgage Note has been
paid in full.

            The Mortgagor shall give notice of prepayment of the Mortgage Notes
pursuant to this Section 46 to the Mortgagee not less than 15 days nor more than
45 days prior to the date fixed for prepayment, specifying (i) the date fixed
for prepayment, (ii) the aggregate principal amount of the Mortgage Notes to be
prepaid on such date and (iii) the amount of the Make-Whole Payment, if any, to
the extent such amount can be calculated as of the date of such notice.

                                     -111-
<PAGE>   123

            (c) Other Prepayments. The Mortgage Notes may or shall be prepaid
without any Make-Whole Obligation upon the occurrence of certain events of
damage to or destruction of or condemnation of any of the Properties securing
the Mortgage Notes or changes in law regarding taxation of mortgages generally
as more fully set forth in Articles 15, 16 and 45 of this Mortgage.

            47. CONFIDENTIALITY. The Mortgagee agrees to use its best efforts to
keep confidential all financial statements and other information obtained by it
from the Mortgagor pursuant to this Mortgage and to not disclose such
information to any other Person except (i) to the Holders pursuant to the terms
of this Mortgage and the Indenture (subject to the confidentiality restrictions
applicable to the Mortgagee and the Holders) and to the Rating Agencies (and the
Rating Agencies may reasonably disclose such information in connection with
their initial rating or their ongoing rating surveillance of the Securities),
(ii) to the extent required by any law, or (iii) to the extent that such
information is public when received by the Mortgagee or becomes public
thereafter due to the action or omission of any party other than the Mortgagee
and the Holders.

            48. SECURITY AGREEMENT, ETC.

            48.1. Grant of Security. This Mortgage is a security agreement
within the meaning of the Uniform Commercial Code of the state where each
Property is located with respect to all personal property now or hereafter
located at the Properties and owned by the Mortgagor as to which the creation
and perfection of a security interest are subject to such Uniform Commercial
Code (the "Personal Property"), and is also a mortgage as to those portions of
the Properties that are classified as real property. The Mortgagor hereby grants
to the Mortgagee a security interest in and to the Personal Property to secure
the payment of the Mortgage Notes. Any completely executed counterpart of this
instrument may be filed as a mortgage on real property or fixtures, or as a
security agreement or financing statement or as both. The address of the
Mortgagor, as debtor, and the address of the Mortgagee, as secured party, are
shown on page 1 of this Mortgage.

            48.2. Financing Statements. The Mortgagor shall cause all financing
and continuation statements and other instruments with respect to the Personal
Property at all times to be kept recorded, filed or registered in such manner
and in such places as may be required by law fully to evidence, perfect and
secure the interests of the Mortgagee

                                     -112-
<PAGE>   124

in the Personal Property, and shall pay all filing fees in connection therewith.
The Mortgagor hereby appoints the Mortgagee as its attorney-in-fact to perform
the obligations of the Mortgagor under this Section 48.2, at the expense of the
Mortgagor, in the event it fails to do so.

            48.3. Multiple Remedies. If an Event of Default shall have occurred
and be continuing, the Mortgagee shall have the option of proceeding, to the
extent permitted under applicable law, as to both real and personal property in
accordance with its rights and remedies in respect of the real property, as an
alternative to proceeding in accordance with the default provisions of the
Uniform Commercial Code; and the Mortgagee may exercise any and all of the other
rights of a secured party under such Uniform Commercial Code.

            48.4. Waiver of Rights. To the extent permitted under applicable
law, the Mortgagor waives all rights of redemption after foreclosure and all
other rights and remedies of a debtor thereunder and all formalities prescribed
by law relative to the sale or disposition of the Personal Property after the
occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default hereunder and all
other rights and remedies of the Mortgagor with respect thereto. In exercising
its right to take possession of the Personal Property upon the occurrence and
during the continuance of an Event of Default hereunder, the Mortgagee,
personally or by its agents or attorneys, and subject to the rights of any
Tenant, may enter upon any part of the Premises without being guilty of trespass
or any wrongdoing, and without liability for damages thereby occasioned except
for its gross negligence or willful misconduct. To the extent any notice of sale
or other disposition of the Personal Property is required and cannot be waived,
in the event the Mortgagee elects to proceed with respect to the Personal
Property separately from the real property, the Mortgagee shall give at least
ten Business Days' notice of the sale of the Personal Property, subject,
however, to the provisions of Article 35 hereof in each case. All recitals in
any instrument of assignment or any other instrument executed by the Mortgagee
incident to any sale, transfer, assignment, lease or other disposition or
utilization of the Personal Property or any part thereof shall be full proof of
the matter stated therein and no other proof shall be required to establish full
legal propriety of the sale or other action taken by the Mortgagee or of any
fact or condition incident thereto, all of which shall be deemed conclusively to
have been performed or to have occurred.

                                     -113-
<PAGE>   125

            48.5. Expenses of Disposition of the Properties. The Mortgagor shall
reimburse the Mortgagee, within thirty Business Days after demand, for all
reasonable expenses of retaking, holding, preparing for sale, lease or other use
or disposition, selling, leasing or otherwise using or disposing of the Personal
Property which are incurred, including all reasonable attorneys' fees and
expenses, and all such expenses shall be added to the Mortgagor's obligations to
the Mortgagee and shall be secured hereby.

            49. EXPENSES OF THE MORTGAGEE.

            (a) Subject to the provisions of Article 38, if any action, suit or
other proceeding affecting any of the Properties or any part thereof be
commenced, in which action, suit or proceeding the Mortgagee is made a party or
participates or in which the right to use such Property or any part thereof is
threatened, or in which it becomes necessary in the reasonable judgment of the
Mortgagee to defend or uphold the interest of the Mortgagee under this Mortgage
(including any action, suit or proceeding to establish or uphold the compliance
of the Improvements with any Legal Requirement), then all amounts reasonably
paid or incurred by the Mortgagee for the expense of any such action, suit or
other proceeding or to protect its rights therein (whether or not it is made or
becomes a party thereto) or otherwise to enforce or defend the rights and lien
created by this Mortgage (including all reasonable attorneys' fees and
expenses), shall be paid by the Mortgagor upon demand and, if not paid within
thirty days of the giving of such demand, shall bear interest at the Default
Rate from the date of the payment or incurring thereof, and any such amount and
the interest thereon shall be a lien on the Properties, prior to any right, or
right to, interest in, or claim upon the Properties attaching or accruing
subsequent to or otherwise subordinate to the lien of this Mortgage, and the
same shall be deemed to be indebtedness secured hereby, provided such right of
payment in the case of any enforcement of the rights of the Mortgagee under this
Mortgage shall only arise in the case where an Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing. All other reasonable amounts paid, advanced or
incurred by the Mortgagee after the occurrence and during the continuance of an
Event of Default in order to secure and protect the interest of the Mortgagee
under this Mortgage or the other Mortgage Security Documents shall be a like
lien on the Properties and be deemed to be part of the indebtedness secured
hereby.

                                     -114-
<PAGE>   126

            (b) Subject to the provisions of Article 38, in the event this
Mortgage or the Mortgage Notes is placed in the hands of counsel for collection
of any amount payable hereunder or thereunder or for the enforcement of any of
the provisions hereof or thereof and if an Event of Default shall have occurred
and shall then be continuing, the Mortgagor agrees to pay all reasonable costs
associated therewith incurred by the Mortgagee, either with or without the
institution of an action, suit or other proceeding, in addition to all
reasonable costs, disbursements and allowances provided by law, all such costs
to be paid upon demand, together with interest thereon at the Default Rate from
the date of notice or incurring thereof, and the same shall be deemed to be part
of the indebtedness secured hereby.

            50. USURY. The Mortgagor and the Mortgagee intend to conform
strictly to applicable laws regarding usury. The Mortgagor and the Mortgagee
hereby stipulate and agree that it is the intention of Mortgagor and Mortgagee
that none of the terms and provisions contained in the Mortgage Notes or this
Mortgage shall ever be construed to create a contract to pay for the use,
forbearance, or detention of money an amount in excess of the maximum
nonusurious amount allowed by applicable law. If the Mortgage Notes or this
Mortgage or the transactions contemplated by any of them would be otherwise
usurious under applicable law, then notwithstanding anything to the contrary in
any or all of the Mortgage Notes or this Mortgage, the Mortgagor, and the
Mortgagee hereby agree as follows: (i) for any applicable period of time
specified by any applicable law, interest under the Mortgage Security Documents
shall never exceed the maximum nonusurious amount allowed by such law; and (ii)
if the Mortgage Notes shall be accelerated in whole or in part for any reason,
or if any required or permitted prepayment occurs hereunder, then for any
applicable period of time specified by any applicable law, interest shall never
include more than the maximum nonusurious amount allowed by each such law, and
in either such case any excess interest (if any) otherwise provided for under
any or all of the Mortgage Security Documents shall automatically be applied by
the Mortgagee in the following order: (1) to interest properly charged under the
Mortgage Notes and this Mortgage; (2) to principal properly charged under the
Mortgage Notes and this Mortgage (without premium); (3) if all sums due under
(1) and (2) have been or would thereby be paid in full, all other interest on
the Mortgage Notes shall be cancelled automatically as of and through the date
of such acceleration or prepayment; and (4) if any such excess interest has been
received by the Mortgagee, it shall be

                                     -115-
<PAGE>   127

refunded by the Mortgagee to the Mortgagor. The Mortgagor shall never be
required to pay unearned interest under the Mortgage Notes and this Mortgage or
to pay interest under any or all of the Mortgage Security Documents in an amount
in excess of the maximum nonusurious amount allowed by applicable law, and the
provisions of this Article 50 shall control over all other provisions of any
Mortgage Security Document which may be in apparent conflict herewith.

            51. MISCELLANEOUS. This Mortgage may be discharged or terminated
only by an instrument in writing signed by the party against which enforcement
of such discharge or termination is sought. In the event any time period or any
date provided in this Mortgage ends or falls on a day other than a Business Day,
then such time period shall be deemed to end, and such date shall be deemed to
fall, on the next succeeding Business Day, and performance herein may be made on
such Business Day, with the same force and effect as if made on such preceding
day. Subject to Article 38 hereof, this Mortgage shall be binding upon the
Mortgagor and the Mortgagee and each of the Mortgagor and the Mortgagee and
their respective successors and permitted assigns and all Persons claiming under
or through the Mortgagor and the Mortgagee or any such successors or permitted
assigns, and shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Mortgagor
and the Mortgagee and their respective successors and assigns. This Mortgage may
be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original,
but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

            52. NON-MERGER. It is the intention and agreement of the Mortgagor
and the Mortgagee that there shall be no merger of any leasehold estate in the
Premises of any of the Properties with the fee interest in the Premises of any
of the Properties or any other estate or interest in the Premises of any of the
Properties, and there shall be no merger of this Mortgage and any estate in the
Premises, by reason of the fact that the same Person may own or hold (a) any
leasehold estate in the Premises, and/or (b) this Mortgage, and/or (c) the fee
interest in the Premises or any other estate or interest in the Premises.

            53. ASSIGNMENT OF RENTS AND MORTGAGOR'S INTEREST IN LEASES.

            (a) During the term hereof, the Mortgagor presently hereby
irrevocably grants, sells, assigns, conveys, transfers and sets over to the
Mortgagee, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, any and all existing

                                     -116-
<PAGE>   128

Leases and any other Leases which may hereafter be entered into by the
Mortgagor, and any modifications, renewals or extensions thereof, and all right,
title and interest of the Mortgagor thereunder and all rights under guarantees
therefor, including all claim, right and demand as lessor to receive, collect
and retain all rents and all other amounts due thereunder, any modification,
renewals or extensions thereof, including:

                  (i) the immediate and continuing right to receive and collect
      all amounts payable by all Tenants, subtenants or other parties pursuant
      to the Leases, Reciprocal Operating Agreements and the Stop & Shop
      Guaranty, including, without limitation, (A) all rents, income, revenues,
      issues, profits, insurance proceeds, condemnation awards and other
      payments, tenders and security payable to or receivable by the Mortgagor
      under the Leases, Reciprocal Operating Agreements and the Stop & Shop
      Guaranty, or any other guaranty,(B) all damages or other amounts payable
      in the event of any expiration or termination of any Lease, Reciprocal
      Operating Agreement, the Stop & Shop Guaranty or any other guaranty,
      pursuant to the terms thereof, by operation of law or otherwise, (C) any
      indemnification against, or reimbursement for, sums paid and costs and
      expenses incurred by the Mortgagor under any Lease, Reciprocal Operating
      Agreement, the Stop & Shop Guaranty or any other guaranty, or otherwise,
      (D) any award in the event of the bankruptcy of any Tenant or guarantor of
      a Lease, Reciprocal Operating Agreement, the Stop & Shop Guaranty or any
      other guaranty, and (E) all security deposits, other security instruments,
      other deposits or prepayments with respect to any such Leases, Reciprocal
      Operating Agreements, the Stop & Shop Guaranty or any other guaranties;

                  (ii) all claims, rights, powers, privileges and remedies of
      the Mortgagor, whether provided for in any Lease, Reciprocal Operating
      Agreement, the Stop & Shop Guaranty or any other guaranty, or arising by
      statute or at law or in equity or otherwise, consequent on any failure on
      the part of any Tenant to perform or comply with any term of any Lease,
      Reciprocal Operating Agreement, the Stop & Shop Guaranty or any other
      guaranty;

                  (iii) all right to take all action upon the happening of a
      default under any Lease, Reciprocal Operating Agreement, the Stop & Shop
      Guaranty or any other guaranty, as shall be permitted by any Lease,

                                     -117-
<PAGE>   129

      Reciprocal Operating Agreement, the Stop & Shop Guaranty or any other
      guaranty, or by law, including, without limitation, the commencement,
      conduct and consummation of proceedings at law or in equity; and

                  (iv) the full power and authority, in the name of the
      Mortgagor, or otherwise, to enforce, collect, receive and make receipt for
      any and all of the foregoing and to do any and all other acts and things
      whatsoever which the Mortgagor, or any landlord is or may be entitled to
      do under any Lease, Reciprocal Operating Agreement, the Stop & Shop
      Guaranty or any other guaranty;

subject, however, to the license granted to the Mortgagor under paragraph (c)
below.

            (b) Any funds received by the Mortgagee, after payment of all proper
costs and charges, under this Article 53 shall be held by the Mortgagee for
application first to payment of all amounts then due and payable under this
Mortgage, and second to payment of all amounts then due and payable under the
Mortgage Notes. The Mortgagee shall be accountable to the Mortgagor only for
monies actually received by the Mortgagee pursuant to this Article 53. The
collection of said funds and the application thereof as aforesaid shall not cure
or waive any Event of Default or waive, modify or affect any notice of Event of
Default or invalidate any act done pursuant to such notice; provided, however,
if the Mortgagor deposits with the Mortgagee amounts which are sufficient to
cover the obligation of the Mortgagor that was the subject of the Event of
Default, the Event of Default shall be deemed to have been cured.

            (c) (i) This assignment constitutes a present, absolute, effective,
irrevocable assignment by the Mortgagor to the Mortgagee of the Property to be
assigned, including without limitation such property as constitutes personal
property, and the right to collect all sums payable to the Mortgagor thereunder
and apply the same in accordance with subsection (b) above which is not
conditioned on the Mortgagee being in possession of the Property.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as no Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing, the Mortgagor shall have a license (which may be
enforced by the Manager) to collect and retain from the Tenants and of such
parties to any Reciprocal Operating Agreements, rent and all other sums payable
under the Leases, the Stop & Shop Guaranty, any Reciprocal Operating Agreements
or any other guaranties, and all Proceeds paid in respect of the insurance
described in

                                     -118-
<PAGE>   130

clause (d) of Exhibit E hereto, to enforce the obligations of Tenants under the
Leases and of such parties to any Reciprocal Operating Agreements, and to
exercise all the rights and remedies of the landlord under the Leases and any
Reciprocal Operating Agreements and, subject in each case, however, to
compliance with the provisions of this Mortgage. The Mortgagor shall deposit
upon receipt, or shall cause the Manager to deposit upon receipt, all monies
received in respect of the Property or this Mortgage and in respect of all

            Stop & Shop Guaranty or any other guaranty be immediately remitted
            to the Mortgagee; and

                  (E) generally, do, execute and perform any other act, deed,
            matter or thing whatsoever that ought to be done, executed and
            performed in and about or with respect to the Leases, Reciprocal
            Operating Agreements, the Stop & Shop Guaranty or any other
            guaranty, as fully as allowed or authorized by this Article 53.

            (d) The Mortgagor hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs each
Tenant under a Lease, and each other party under a Reciprocal Operating
Agreement, the Stop & Shop Guaranty or any other guaranty, upon receipt of
notice from the Mortgagee that an Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing, to pay directly to, or as directed by, the Mortgagee, all rents,
issues and profits accruing or due under such Tenant's Lease, or under such
Reciprocal Operating Agreement, the Stop & Shop Guaranty or any other guaranty,
from and after the receipt of such notice. The Mortgagor agrees that any Tenant
or such other party shall have the right to rely upon the notice from the
Mortgagee and shall pay such rents, issues and profits to or as directed by the
Mortgagee without any obligation to inquire into the actual existence of any
Event of Default claimed by the Mortgagee, notwithstanding any notice from or
contrary claim by the Mortgagor, and the Mortgagor shall have no right or claim
for any rents, issues or profits so paid to the Mortgagee. Such rents, issues

cured to the satisfaction of the Mortgagee (and so long as no amount shall then
be due and payable under the Mortgage Notes, whether at maturity, by declaration
of acceleration or otherwise, and such acceleration has not been rescinded). In
the event each such Event of Default has been cured as aforesaid (or, if the
provisions set forth in the parenthetical in the immediately preceding sentence
are applicable, upon completion of foreclosure or comparable remedies resulting
in a disposition of the Premises) the Mortgagee shall direct each tenant by
written notice to resume the payment of all rents, issues or profits accruing

                                     -120-

or due under its respective Lease, Reciprocal Operating Agreement, the Stop &
Shop Guaranty or any other guaranty in accordance with the provisions of Section
53(c) hereof (or, if the immediately preceding parenthetical is applicable, to
the then-owner of the Premises) from and after receipt of such notice from the
Mortgagee.

            (e) Except for any termination of any Lease, Reciprocal Operating
Agreement, the Stop & Shop Guaranty or any other guaranty or any amendment,
modification or waiver of the provisions of any Lease, Reciprocal Operating
Agreement, the Stop & Shop Guaranty or any other guaranty expressly permitted by
the provisions thereof or of Article 20 hereof, the Mortgagor at its expense
will prudently enforce in all material respects each of the Leases, Reciprocal
Operating Agreements, the Stop & Shop Guaranty or any other guaranties, in
accordance with their terms. Neither the execution and delivery of this Mortgage

under its Reciprocal Operating Agreement or the Stop & Shop Guaranty, (iii) any
guarantor from any of its obligations or liabilities under any other guaranty,

Operating Agreements, the Stop & Shop Guaranty or any other guaranties or
constitute an assumption of any such obligation on the part of the Mortgagee. No
action or failure to act on the part of the Mortgagor shall adversely affect or
limit the rights of the Mortgagee under this Mortgage or the Assignment or,

Agreement, the Stop & Shop Guaranty or any other guaranty.

            (f) During the term hereof, all rights, powers and privileges of
Mortgagee herein set forth are coupled with an interest and are irrevocable,
subject to the terms and conditions hereof, and the Mortgagor will not take any
action under any Lease, Reciprocal Operating Agreement, the Stop & Shop Guaranty
or any other guaranty or otherwise which is inconsistent with this Mortgage or
the Assignment or any of the terms hereof or thereof and any such action

the Mortgagee hereby.

Guaranty or any other guaranty shall be amended as permitted hereby, such Lease,
Reciprocal Operating Agreement, the Stop & Shop Guaranty or any other guaranty
shall continue to be subject to the provisions hereof without the necessity of
any further act by any of the parties hereto, subject to the provisions of any
non-disturbance agreement which the Mortgagee may have granted in accordance
with the provisions of this Mortgage.

under the aforementioned power of sale, shall be under the provisions of Real
Property Article of the Annotated Code of Maryland Section 7-105 (Acts of 1974
of Chapter 12) and Title 14, Chapter 200 of the Maryland Rules of Procedure, or
under any other general or local laws of the State of Maryland relating to
mortgages, or any supplement, amendment or addition thereto. Such sale shall be
made after giving notice by advertisement as required by the aforesaid Statute
and Rules; and the terms of the sale may be all cash upon ratification of the
sale or

                                     -130-
<PAGE>   142

such other terms as the party selling may deem expedient. And upon any such sale
of said property under this mortgage, the proceeds shall be applied as follows:
(1) to repayment of all expenses incident to said sale, including a reasonable
counsel fee for conducting the proceedings if without contest, but if legal
services be rendered to the Mortgagee or to the party selling under the power of
sale in connection with any contested matter in the proceedings, then such
additional counsel fees and expenses shall be allowed out of the proceeds of
sale as the Court may deem proper; and a commission to the party making the sale
of said property equal to the commission allowed persons for making sale of
property by virtue of a decree of a Court having equity jurisdiction in the
State of Maryland; (2) to the payment of all claims of the said Mortgagee
hereunder, whether the same shall have matured or not, including interest
thereon until the final ratification of the final Auditor's Account in the
foreclosure proceedings; (3) and the balance if any to the said Mortgagor, or to
whomever may be entitled to same. And in the event that the Mortgage debt shall
be paid after any advertisement of said property, but before sale thereof, the
Mortgagor hereby covenants to pay also all expenses incident to said
advertisement or notice, all court costs and all expenses incident to the
foreclosure proceedings under this mortgage, and a commission on the total
amount of the mortgage indebtedness, principal and interest equal to one-half of
the percentage allowed as commission to persons making sale under orders or
decrees of a Court having equity jurisdiction in the State of Maryland and a
reasonable counsel fee; but said sale may be proceeded with unless prior to the
day appointed therefor, payment be made of said principal and interest, costs,
expenses, commission and fee.

            Mortgagor hereby acknowledges receipt, without charge, of a true
copy of this Mortgage.

            65. CONTRIBUTION AMONG BORROWERS.

            (a) Contribution. To provide for just and equitable contribution
among Mortgagors, if any payment is made by a Mortgagor (a "Funding Mortgagor")
hereunder or under the Mortgage Notes or any other Mortgage Security Document in
respect of the Secured Obligations such Funding Mortgagor shall be entitled to a
contribution from other Mortgagors for all payments, damages and expenses
incurred by such Funding Mortgagor under or in connection with such Secured
Obligations, such contributions to be made in the manner and to the extent set
forth below. Any amount payable as a contribution under this Mortgage shall be

                                     -131-
<PAGE>   143

determined as of the date on which the related payment is made by a Funding
Mortgagor.

            (b) Calculation of Contributions. Each Mortgagor shall be liable for
contribution to each Funding Mortgagor in respect of all payments, damages and
expenses incurred by such Funding Mortgagor hereunder or under the Mortgage
Notes or any other Mortgage Security Document in an aggregate amount, subject to
Section 65(c) below, equal to (i) the ratio of (x) the Property Worth of the
Property owned by such Mortgagor to (y) the Property Worth of the Properties
owned by all Mortgagors, multiplied by (ii) the aggregate amount of such
payments, damages and expenses incurred by such Funding Mortgagor under or in
connection with the Secured Obligations.

            (c) Rights to Contribution Subordinated. Each Mortgagor agrees that
all of its rights to receive contribution under this Section 65 (whether for
payments, damages, expenses or otherwise) and all of its rights, if any, to be
subrogated to any of the rights of Mortgagee shall be subordinated in right of
payment (in liquidation or otherwise) to the prior payment in full in cash of
all of the obligations of the Mortgagors in respect of the Secured Obligations
(whether for principal, interest, Make-Whole Obligation or otherwise). If any
amount shall at any time be paid to a Mortgagor on account of such rights of
contribution or subrogation, or in contravention of the provisions of this
Section 65(c) at any time, such amount shall be held in trust, segregated from
the other assets of such Mortgagor, for the benefit of the Mortgagee and shall
promptly be paid to the Mortgagee. The foregoing shall constitute a continuing
offer to, and agreement with, all persons that from time to time may become
holders of, or continue to hold, obligations under this Mortgage, and the
provisions of the foregoing sentence are made for the benefit of such holders
and such holders, as third party beneficiaries hereunder, are entitled to
enforce such provisions.

            66. JOINT AND SEVERAL OBLIGATIONS.

            (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this
Mortgage or any of the other Mortgage Security Documents (but subject to Article
38), the obligations of the Mortgagors hereunder shall be joint and several.

            (b) Each Mortgagor's obligations hereunder shall remain outstanding
until all Secured Obligations have been

                                     -132-
<PAGE>   144

paid in full, unless released in accordance with the terms of this Mortgage.

            (c) No payment or payments with respect to the obligations of any
Mortgagor hereunder made by any other Mortgagor or any other Person or received
or collected by the Mortgagee from such other Mortgagor or such other Person by
virtue of any action or proceeding or any setoff or appropriation or
application, at any time or from time to time, in reduction of or in payment of
the Secured Obligations or any release of security hereunder shall be deemed to
modify, reduce, release or otherwise affect the primary liability of such
Mortgagor in respect thereof.

            (d) If any amount shall at any time be paid to a Mortgagor on
account of such rights of contribution or subrogation, in contravention of the
provisions of this Section 66 at any time, such amount shall be held in trust,
segregated from the other assets of such Mortgagor, for the benefit of the
Mortgagee and shall promptly be paid to the Mortgagee.

Mortgage to be duly executed and delivered as of the date first above written.

scheduled principal amortization on any Mortgage Note is not paid or provided
for on or prior to 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on the date which is two (2)
Business Days prior to the Payment Date on which such interest or scheduled

equal to the greater of (A) ___% and (B) the Advance Interest Rate (as defined
in the Indenture).

            If any principal or interest due under this Class [ ] Mortgage Note
is not paid by the Maker 2 Business Days prior to the Payment Date on which it
would otherwise be due, as set forth in the immediately preceding paragraph, the
Maker will be required to pay a late payment charge in an amount equal to the
lesser of 3% of such unpaid sum or the maximum amount permitted by applicable
law.

            Payment of the principal of and interest (and Make- Whole
Obligation, if any) on this Class [ ] Mortgage Note shall be made to the Trustee
under that certain Indenture, dated as of the date hereof, between the Payee and
the Trustee (the "Indenture") for the account of the Payee, either at the
Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee in such coin or currency of the United
States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of
public and private debts, or by wire transfer of lawful money of the United
States of America to the Trustee at such place as may be designated from time to
time by the Trustee. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, unless the Trustee
otherwise directs the Maker, such payment shall be made by making funds in
lawful money of the United States of America available in the Collection Account
(as defined in the Indenture) for withdrawal by the Servicer on behalf of the
Trustee by wire transfer as and when necessary (including in advance of the due
date) to make timely payment of amounts due and payable on Outstanding
Securities in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture. Payment to the
Trustee shall constitute payment to the Payee for all purposes hereunder and in
respect hereof.

            This Class [ ] Mortgage Note is secured by those certain
mortgages/deed of trust, dated as of the date hereof, made by the Maker to Payee
(the "Mortgage"). Capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the
respective meanings assigned to them in the Mortgage.

            This Class [ ] Mortgage Note may be prepaid by the Maker, in whole
or in part, at the election of the Maker, and in certain circumstances is
required to be prepaid in whole or in part, by Maker, in each case pursuant to
the terms of the Mortgage. In the event that this Class [ ] Mortgage Note is
prepaid in part only, a new Class [ ] Mortgage Note for the unprepaid portion
hereof will be issued in the name of the Payee upon the cancellation hereof.

            If an Event of Default, as defined in clauses (a) through (h) of
Section 23 of the Mortgage, shall have occurred

                                       C-3
<PAGE>   158

and be continuing, the principal amount of this Class [ ] Mortgage Note may be
declared due and payable on demand by the Payee, and upon such declaration the
principal amount of this Class [ ] Mortgage Note shall become immediately due
and payable, together (to the extent permitted by law) with interest on any
unpaid amounts due under this Class [ ] Mortgage Note and the Make-Whole Amount.
If an Event of Default as defined in clause (i) or (j) of Article 23 of the
Mortgage shall have occurred and be continuing, the principal amount of this
Class [ ] Mortgage Note, together (to the extent permitted by law) with interest
on any unpaid amounts due under this Class [ ] Mortgage Note and the Make-Whole
Amount shall automatically become due and payable immediately without any action
whatsoever on the part of the Payee, with the effect, and subject to the
conditions, provided in the Mortgage.

            The Make-Whole Amount shall be due and payable in accordance with
the terms of the Mortgage and upon the acceleration of the maturity of this
Class [ ] Mortgage Note by virtue of the occurrence and continuance of an Event
of Default, and said Make-Whole Amount shall be calculated by the Payee as
provided in the Mortgage.

            The Maker confirms that the Make-Whole Amount described above is an
essential component of the consideration for the Payee's agreement to make the
loan to the Maker evidenced hereby. Such Make-Whole Amount represents a
reasonable estimate by the Maker and the Payee of a fair average compensation
for the loss that Payee will sustain due to the payment of any of the
indebtedness evidenced hereby prior to the maturity hereof. Such Make-Whole
Amount shall be paid without prejudice to the right of the Payee to collect any
other amounts provided to be paid hereunder or under any of the other Mortgage
Security Documents.

            The Mortgage contains provisions for the release of the Mortgage
upon compliance by the Maker with certain conditions set forth therein.

            Subject to Section 50 of the Mortgage, no reference herein to the
Mortgage and no provision of this Class [ ] Mortgage Note or the Mortgage shall
alter or impair the obligation of the Maker, which is absolute and
unconditional, to pay the principal of and interest (and Make-Whole Obligation,
if any) on this Class [ ] Mortgage Note at the times, places and rates, and in
the coin or currency, herein prescribed, subject to the provisions hereof
limiting the recourse of the holder of this Class [ ] Mortgage Note.

      As provided in Section 38 of the Mortgage, this Class [ ] Mortgage Note is
a non-recourse obligation of the Maker secured only by the Properties and the
other Mortgage Collateral and payable only therefrom. The provisions of Section
38 of the Mortgage are hereby incorporated by reference into this Class [ ]
Mortgage Note as if set forth in full herein.

      (a) Insurance with respect to the Improvements and the Equipment against
any peril included within the classification "All Risks of Physical Loss" with
extended coverage in amounts at all times sufficient to prevent the Mortgagor
from becoming co-insurer within the terms of the applicable policies, but in any
event such insurance shall be maintained in an amount equal to the full
insurable value of the Improvements and the Equipment, the term "full insurable
value" to mean the actual replacement cost of the Improvements and the Equipment
(without taking into account any depreciation, and exclusive of excavations,
footings and foundations, landscaping and paving) determined annually by an

event less than the coverage required pursuant to the terms of any Lease;

      (b) Comprehensive general liability insurance, including bodily injury,
death and property damage liability, and umbrella liability insurance against
any and all claims, including all legal liability to the extent insurable
imposed upon the Mortgagee and all court costs and attorneys' fees and expenses,

lenders for properties comparable to the Properties;

      (c) Statutory workers' compensation insurance (to the extent the risks to
be covered thereby are not already covered by other policies of insurance
maintained by the Mortgagor), with respect to any work on or about the
Properties;

      (d) Business interruption and/or loss of "rental value" insurance in an
amount sufficient to avoid any co-insurance penalty and to provide Proceeds for
a period of not less than one year following restoration, the term "rental
value" to mean the sum of (A) the total rentals payable under the Leases and (B)
the total amount of all other amounts to be received by the Mortgagor or third
parties which are the legal obliga tion of the Tenants, reduced to the extent
such amounts would not be received because of expenses not incurred during a

Property then not being occupied;

                                       E-1
<PAGE>   163

      (e) Broad form boiler and machinery insurance (without exclusion for
explosion) covering all boilers or other pressure vessels, machinery and
equipment located in, on or about the Properties and insurance against loss of
occupancy or use arising from any such breakdown in such amounts as are

institutional lenders for properties comparable to the Properties;

      (f) If a Property is located within a federally designated "100 year flood
plain", flood insurance if generally available at reasonable premiums and in
such amount as generally required by institutional lenders for similar
properties (provided, however, that if the Mortgagor believes that it is no
longer obligated to maintain flood insurance pursuant to this provision, the
Mortgagor shall notify the Mortgagee of such circumstance and the Mortgagee
shall have the opportunity to contest by appropriate legal or mutually agreeable
arbitration proceedings whether or not the Mortgagor's obligation remains in
effect in light of the criteria set forth in this provision); and

      (g) Such other insurance with respect to a Property against loss or damage
of the kinds from time to time customarily insured against and in such amounts

institutional lenders for properties comparable to such Property.

            Ratings of Insurers: The Mortgagor will maintain a portion of the
insurance coverage described in clause (a) above in an amount at least equal to
the Maximum Foreseeable Casualty Loss and the insurance coverage described in
clause (d) above, with either the insurers who insure the Property on the date
of this Mortgage (including Arkwright) (but only so long as the ratings of such
insurers are not reduced to a level below that permitted by this Paragraph or
withdrawn) or one or more other primary insurers having (or a syndicate (i.e.,
either a consortium or a co-insurance group as with the policy on the Property
existing on the date hereof) of insurers through which the coverage is with
carriers having) a claims paying ability as determined by Moody's, and by DCR if
such insurance companies are rated by DCR and if not rated by DCR, then A by one
additional NRSRO, of not less than one grade less than the highest ratings then
assigned to the Notes by the Rating Agencies (i.e., if the Notes are rated
"Aaa", the insurers' rating shall be not less than "Aa2"), but in no event less
than A2 or "A"; the coverage described in clauses (b) and (c) shall be
maintained with either the insurers who insure the Property on the date of

                                       E-2
<PAGE>   164

this Mortgage or one or more other primary insurers (or a syndicate (as defined
above) of insurers through which at least 75% of the coverage (if there are four
or fewer members of the syndicate) or at least 60% of the coverage (if there are
five or more members of the syndicate)) having a claims paying ability of not
less than Investment Grade by Moody's (or equivalent), and by DCR if such
insurance companies are rated by DCR and if not so rated by DCR, then A by one
additional NRSRO. The coverage described in clause (c) shall be maintained with
either an insurer having a claims paying ability of not less than Investment
Grade or the applicable state workers' compensation fund. In each case, however,
if no providers of such insurance are so rated, the requirement for such rating
shall be the highest rating then given to insurers by Moody's and DCR; and
provided further that in the event of any loss, claims in respect of a portion
of such insurance maintained in accordance with clause (a) above shall be
payable prior to claims in respect of the remaining portion(s) of the insurance
required by such clauses.

            All insurance coverage shall be provided by one or more primary
insurers having an Alfred M. Best Company, Inc. rating of "A-VIII" or better
except to the extent that insurance in force on the date of this Mortgage does
not satisfy such criteria or if otherwise approved by the Mortgagee.

            The insurance coverage required under this Exhibit E may be effected
under a blanket policy or policies covering the Properties and other properties
and assets not constituting Properties; provided that any such blanket policy
shall specify, except in the case of public liability insurance, the portion of
the total coverage of such policy that is allocated to the Properties, and any
sublimits in such blanket policy applicable to the Properties, which amounts
shall not be less than the amounts required pursuant to Section 13 and this
Exhibit E. and which shall in any case comply in all other respects with the
requirements of this Section 13 and this Exhibit E.

            The "Maximum Foreseeable Casualty Loss" shall be the estimate of the
Qualified Fire Protection Engineer then being used by the Mortgagor (unless
reasonably disapproved by the Mortgagee) in connection with its existing
insurance package of the maximum probable casualty loss which would be incurred
in respect of the Premises as a result of damage caused by the perils covered by
the insurance described in clause (a) above.
