14.           This Amendment may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which, when so executed by the party against whom enforcement thereof is sought, shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement.

TOGETHER with all awards heretofore or hereafter made by any federal, state, county, municipal or other governmental authority, or by whomsoever made in any condemnation or eminent domain proceedings whatsoever, to the present or subsequent owners of the Premises or any portion thereof, for the acquisition for public purposes of the Premises or any portion thereof or any interest therein or any use thereof, or for consequential damages on account thereof, including any award for any change of grade of streets affecting the Premises or any portion thereof and any award for any damage to the Premises or any portion thereof or any interest therein or any use thereof.

Capitalized terms used herein but not otherwise defined herein shall have their respective meanings ascribed to them in the Loan Agreement.

MORTGAGOR COVENANTS WITH MORTGAGEE SO LONG AS THIS MORTGAGE IS IN EFFECT AS FOLLOWS:

1.  INDEBTEDNESS.  The Indebtedness shall be paid as provided in the Note and as provided herein.  Additionally, Mortgagor acknowledges and agrees that any amounts now or hereafter due and owing from Mortgagor to Mortgagee arising from or in connection with any interest rate swap agreement, now existing or hereafter entered into between Mortgagor and Mortgagee, and any costs incurred by Mortgagee in connection therewith, including, without limitation, any interest, expenses, fees, penalties or other charges associated with any obligations undertaken by the Lending Group to hedge or offset the Lending Group’s obligations pursuant to such swap agreement, or the termination of any such obligations, shall be (i) deemed additional interest and/or a related expense (to be determined in the sole discretion of Mortgagee) due in connection with the principal amount of the Indebtedness secured by this Mortgage, (ii) included (in the manner described above) as part of the Indebtedness secured by this Mortgage, and secured by this Mortgage to the full extent thereof, and (iii) included in any judgment in any proceeding instituted by Mortgagee or its agents against Mortgagor for foreclosure of this Mortgage or otherwise.

2.  INSURANCE.  (A) Mortgagor shall keep the Premises insured against each risk to which the Premises may from time to time be subject (including fire, vandalism and other risks covered by all risk insurance; if requested by Mortgagee, earthquake; if the Premises or any portion thereof are located in an area identified as an area having special flood hazards and in which flood insurance has been made available, flood; and loss of rents by reason of such risks) for the benefit of Mortgagee.  Such insurance shall be provided in such amounts, for 

 

  

2

  

 

such periods, in such form, with such special endorsements, on such terms and by such companies and against such risks as shall be satisfactory to Mortgagee.  Without limiting the generality of the preceding two sentences, each policy pursuant to which such insurance is provided shall contain a mortgagee clause, in form and substance satisfactory to Mortgagee, (a) naming Mortgagee as mortgagee and (b) providing that (i) all moneys payable pursuant to such insurance shall be payable to Mortgagee, (ii) such insurance shall not be affected by any act or neglect of Mortgagor or Mortgagee, any occupancy, operation or use of the Premises or any portion thereof for purposes more hazardous than permitted by the terms of such policy, any foreclosure or other proceeding or notice of sale relating to the Premises or any portion thereof or any change in the title to or ownership of the Premises or any portion thereof and (iii) such policy and such mortgagee clause may not be canceled or amended except upon thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to Mortgagee.  Mortgagor shall deliver evidence of property insurance to Mortgagee in form reasonably acceptable to Mortgagee, provided however that any  blanket property insurance policy shall specifically allocate to the Premises the amount of coverage from time to time required hereunder and shall otherwise provide the same protection as would a separate policy insuring only the Premises.  The acceptance by Mortgagee of evidence of property insurance from Mortgagor shall not be deemed or construed as an approval by Mortgagee of the form, sufficiency or amount of such insurance.  Mortgagee does not in any way represent that such insurance, whether in scope or coverage or limits of coverage, is adequate or sufficient to protect the business or interest of Mortgagor.  In the event of the foreclosure of this Mortgage, or a transfer of title to the Premises in extinguishment of the Indebtedness, all right, title and interest of Mortgagor in and to any such policies then in force shall pass to the purchaser or grantee of the Premises.  All the provisions of this Section 2 and any other provisions of this Mortgage pertaining to insurance which may be required under this Mortgage shall be construed with Section 254, Subdivision 4 of the New York Real Property Law, but, said Section 254 to the contrary notwithstanding, Mortgagor consents that Mortgagee may, without qualification or limitation by virtue of said Section 254, retain and apply the proceeds of any such insurance in satisfaction or reduction of the Indebtedness, whether or not then due and payable, or it may pay the same, wholly or in part, to any Mortgagor for the repair or replacement of the Premises or for any other purpose satisfactory to Mortgagee, without affecting the lien of this Mortgage for the full amount of the Indebtedness before the making of such payment.

(B)           Notwithstanding the provisions set forth above in Section 2(A), in the event that all or any part of the Premises is damaged by fire or other casualty, and Mortgagor promptly notifies Mortgagee of its desire to repair and restore the same, then, provided that the following terms and conditions are and remain fully satisfied by Mortgagor, Mortgagee shall have the right (but not the obligation) to make proof of loss for, settle and adjust any claim under, and receive the proceeds of, all insurance for loss of or damage to the Premises where the loss is estimated by Mortgagee to be One Million and 00/100 Dollars ($1,000,000.00) or more.  Mortgagee agrees to allow the insurance proceeds in an amount of up to One Million and 00/100 Dollars ($1,000,000.00) to be disbursed to Mortgagor for repair and restoration of the Premises:

(i)       no Event of Default or event which, with the giving of notice or the passage of time, or both, would constitute an Event of Default under this Mortgage shall have occurred and be continuing;

 

  

3

  

 

(ii)      Mortgagor shall have delivered evidence reasonably satisfactory to Mortgagee, in its sole reasonable discretion, that the Premises can be fully repaired and restored six (6) months prior to the maturity of the Note;

(iii)     BJ’S Wholesale Club, Inc. (“BJ’S”) has not cancelled that certain lease agreement with Mortgagor dated March 12, 2009 (the “BJ Lease”) and The City of New York acting through the Department of Citywide Administrative Services (“NYC”, collectively with BJ’S, the “Tenant”) has not cancelled that certain lease agreement with Mortgagor dated November 5, 2009 (the “NYC Lease”, collectively with the BJ Lease, the “Lease”), provided, however, that Mortgagor may contest any attempt by Tenant to cancel the Lease, however such proceeds shall not be disbursed to the Mortgagor until Mortgagee has received evidence that any such Lease has not been cancelled;

(iv)     Mortgagor shall have deposited with Mortgagee for disbursement in connection with the restoration the greater of:  (1) the applicable deductible under the insurance policies covering the loss; or (2) the amount by which the cost of restoration of the Premises to substantially the same value, condition and character as existed prior to such damage is reasonably estimated by Mortgagor, and approved by Mortgagee, in its reasonable judgment to exceed the net insurance proceeds available for restoration;

(v)      Mortgagor has paid as and when due all of Mortgagee’s direct, reasonable, out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the collection and disbursement of insurance proceeds, including without limitation, inspection, monitoring, engineering and legal fees.  If not paid within ten (10) days of demand, and at Mortgagee's option, such costs may be deducted from the disbursements made by Mortgagee or added to the sums secured by this Mortgage in accordance with the provisions of Section 28 hereof; and

(vi)     if the Tenant has commenced paying rent, Mortgagor shall have delivered evidence reasonably satisfactory to Mortgagee, in its sole reasonable discretion, that the portion of the Premises being renovated is covered by adequate business interruption insurance.

Mortgagee shall have the right to apply the proceeds toward reduction of the Indebtedness as provided by Section 2(A) above, provided however that, notwithstanding the provisions set forth above in Section 2(B), to the extent any provision of either of the BJ Lease or the NYC Lease shall conflict with the provisions of Section 2(B), then in such case the BJ Lease or the NYC Lease shall control.

3.  ALTERATIONS, DEMOLITION OR REMOVAL.  No building, structure, other improvement, fixture or equipment or other personal property constituting any portion of the Premises shall be removed, demolished or substantially altered without the prior written consent of Mortgagee except as more fully set forth the Loan Agreement .

 

4.  WASTE AND CHANGE IN USE.  No Mortgagor shall commit any waste on the Premises or make any change in the use of the Premises which may in any way increase any ordinary fire, environmental or other risk arising out of construction or operation.

 

  

4

  

 

5.  MAINTENANCE AND REPAIRS.  Mortgagee acknowledges that construction is ongoing.  Subject to the aforesaid condition, Mortgagor shall keep and maintain all buildings, structures, other improvements, fixtures and equipment and other personal property constituting any portion of the Premises and the sidewalks and curbs abutting the Premises in good order and rentable and tenantable condition and state of repair.  In the event that the Premises or any portion thereof shall be damaged or destroyed by fire or any other casualty, or in the event of the condemnation or taking of any portion of the Premises as a result of any exercise of the power of eminent domain, Mortgagor shall promptly restore, replace, rebuild or alter the same as nearly as possible to the condition immediately prior to such fire, other casualty, condemnation or taking without regard to the adequacy of any proceeds of any insurance or award received.  Mortgagor shall give prompt written notice to Mortgagee of any such damage or destruction or of the commencement of any condemnation or eminent domain proceeding affecting the Premises or any portion thereof.

 

6.  EXISTENCE AND AUTHORITY.  Mortgagor represents and warrants, and continues to represent and warrant as long as this Mortgage is in effect, as follows:  (a) it is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware and will do all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect the existence, franchises, rights and privileges of Mortgagor as a limited liability company, under the laws of the State of Delaware; (b) Mortgagor has the full power and authority to grant the mortgage lien hereunder and to execute, deliver and perform its obligations in accordance with this Mortgage; (c) the execution and delivery of this Mortgage will not (i) violate any applicable law of any governmental authority or any judgment or order of any court, other governmental authority or arbitrator; (ii) violate any agreement to which Mortgagor is a party; or (iii) result in a lien or encumbrance on any of its assets (other than the mortgage lien hereunder); (d) Mortgagor’s certificate of formation or other organizational or governing documents (“Governing Documents”) do not prohibit any term or condition of this Mortgage; (d) each authorization, approval or consent from, each registration and filing with, each declaration and notice to, and each other act by or relating to, any party required as a condition of Mortgagor’s execution, delivery or performance of this Mortgage (including any shareholder or board of directors or similar approvals) has been duly obtained and is in full force and effect and no other action is required under its Governing Documents or otherwise; and (e) Mortgagor has the power and authority to transact the business in which it is engaged and is duly licensed or qualified and in good standing in each jurisdiction in which the conduct of its business or ownership of property requires such licensing or such qualifications.

 

7.  TAXES AND ASSESSMENTS.  Unless paid from an escrow established pursuant to Section 8 of this Mortgage, Mortgagor shall pay all taxes, general and special assessments and other governmental impositions with respect to the Premises before the end of any applicable grace period.

5

  

 

8.  ESCROW FOR TAXES, ASSESSMENTS AND INSURANCE.  Upon request by Mortgagee in the event insufficient funds remain in the budget for the construction of the Improvement to fund taxes and insurance, Mortgagor shall pay (a) monthly to Mortgagee on or before the first day of each and every calendar month, until the Indebtedness is fully paid, a sum equal to one-twelfth (1/12th) of the yearly taxes, general and special assessments, other governmental impositions and other liens and charges with respect to the Premises to be imposed for the ensuing year, as estimated by Mortgagee in good faith, and annual premiums for insurance on the Premises and (b) an initial payment such that, when such monthly payments are added thereto, the total of such payments will be sufficient to pay such taxes, assessments, impositions and other liens and charges and such insurance premiums on or before the date when they become due.  Absent manifest error, Mortgagee’s calculation as to the amount to be paid into Escrow shall be deemed conclusive.  So long as no Event of Default (as hereinafter defined) shall have occurred or exists, Mortgagee shall hold such payments in trust in an account maintained with Mortgagee without obligation to pay interest thereon, except such interest as may be mandatory by any applicable statute, regulation or other law, to pay, to the extent funds are available, such taxes, assessments, impositions and other liens and charges and such insurance premiums within a reasonable time after they become due; provided, however, that upon the occurrence or existence of any Event of Default, Mortgagee may apply the balance of any such payments held to the Indebtedness.  If the total of such payments made by any Mortgagor shall exceed the amount of such payments made by Mortgagee, such excess shall be held or credited by Mortgagee for the benefit of Mortgagor.  If the total of such payments made by any Mortgagor shall be less than the amount of such taxes, assessments, impositions and other liens and charges and such insurance premiums, then Mortgagor shall pay to Mortgagee any amount necessary to make up the deficiency on or before the date when any such amount shall be due.

 

9.  LEASES.  Pursuant to Section 291-f of the New York Real Property Law, Mortgagor shall not (a) accept any prepayment of installments of rent to become due thereunder for more than one month in advance, without the prior written consent of Mortgagee or (b)  modify or amend any existing leases, and will not make any rent concessions or other financial accommodations in favor of any tenant without the prior written consent of the Mortgagee.  Further, all leases shall be subordinated to this Mortgage.  In addition, any new lease for space in excess of 5,000 square feet at the Premises will be subject to the following Minimum Leasing Criteria:

1.     Fixed Rent:  At least $27.00 per rentable square foot (net of concessions), triple net.

2.     Term: Not less than five (5) years.

Upon request by Mortgagee, Mortgagor shall promptly furnish to Mortgagee a written statement containing the names and mailing addresses of all lessees of the Premises or of any portion thereof, the terms of their respective leases, the space occupied and the rentals payable thereunder and copies of their respective leases and shall cooperate in effecting delivery of notice of this covenant to each affected lessee.

10.  ASSIGNMENT OF LEASES AND RENTS.  Mortgagor hereby assigns to Mortgagee all existing and future leases of the Premises or any portion thereof (including any amendments, renewals, extensions or modifications thereof) and the rents, issues and profits of the Premises (“Accounts”), as further security for the payment of the Indebtedness, and Mortgagor grants to Mortgagee the right to enter upon and to take possession of the Premises for the purpose of collecting the same and to let the Premises or any portion thereof, and after payment of each cost and expense (including each fee and disbursement of counsel to Mortgagee) incurred by Mortgagee in such entry and collection, to apply the remainder of the same to the Indebtedness, without affecting its right to maintain any action theretofore instituted, or to bring any action thereafter, to enforce the payment of the Indebtedness.  In the event Mortgagee exercises such rights, it shall not thereby be deemed a mortgagee in possession, and it shall not in any way be made liable for any act or omission.  No Mortgagor shall assign such leases, rents, issues or profits or any interest therein or grant any similar rights to any other person without Mortgagee’s prior written consent.  Mortgagee hereby waives the right to enter upon and to take possession of the Premises for the purpose of collecting said rents, issues and profits, and Mortgagor shall be entitled to collect the same, until the occurrence or existence of any Event of Default, but such right of Mortgagor may be revoked by Mortgagee upon the occurrence or existence of any Event of Default.  Upon the occurrence or existence of any Event of Default, Mortgagor shall pay monthly in advance to Mortgagee, or to any receiver appointed to collect said rents, issues and profits, a fair and reasonable monthly rental value for the use and occupation of the Premises, and upon default in any such payment shall vacate and surrender the possession of the Premises to Mortgagee or to such receiver, and in default thereof may be evicted by summary proceedings pursuant to Article 7 of the New York Real Property Actions and Proceedings Law.  The rights and remedies under this section and any separately recorded assignment of rents and/or leases in favor of Mortgagee shall be cumulative.

30.  LITIGATION.  Mortgagor shall promptly notify Mortgagee in writing of any litigation, proceeding, or counterclaim against, or of any investigation of, Mortgagor (or the threat thereof) if:  (i) the outcome of such litigation, proceeding, counterclaim, or investigation may materially and adversely affect the finances or operations of Mortgagor or title to, or the value of, any assets secured by the Mortgage or (ii) such litigation, proceeding, counterclaim, or investigation questions the validity of the Mortgage, the Note or any document executed in connection therewith including any guaranties or any action taken, or to be taken, pursuant to any such documents.  Mortgagor shall furnish to Mortgagee such information regarding any such litigation, proceeding, counterclaim, or investigation as Mortgagee shall request.

 

31.  NOTICE OF NON-COMPLIANCE.  Mortgagor shall notify Mortgagee in writing of any failure by Mortgagor to comply with any provision of the Note, the Mortgage or any document executed in connection therewith immediately upon learning of such non-compliance, or if any representation, warranty or covenant contained in any such document is no longer true.  Mortgagor shall also immediately notify Mortgagee in writing if there is any material adverse change in any of the information or financial statements supplied to Mortgagee to induce Mortgagee to extend credit to Mortgagor or if such information or financial statement is required under this Mortgage or any other document executed in connection therewith.

32.  COVENANTS SHALL RUN WITH THE LAND.  The covenants contained in this Mortgage shall run with the land and bind Mortgagor, each heir, legal representative, successor and assign of Mortgagor and each subsequent owner, encumbrancer, tenant and subtenant of the Premises or any portion thereof, and shall inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, Mortgagee and each successor and assign of Mortgagee.

 

33.  NONWAIVER BY MORTGAGEE.  All rights and remedies of Mortgagee under this Mortgage and its other agreements with Mortgagor are cumulative, and no right or remedy shall be exclusive of any other right or remedy.  No single, partial or delayed exercise by Mortgagee or its agents of any right or remedy shall preclude full and timely exercise by Mortgagee or its agents at any time of any right or remedy of Mortgagee without notice or demand, at Mortgagee’s sole option.  No course of dealing or other conduct, no oral agreement or representation made by Mortgagee or its agents or usage of trade shall operate as a waiver of any right or remedy of Mortgagee.  No waiver of any right or remedy of Mortgagee hereunder shall be effective unless made specifically in writing by Mortgagee.  No notice or demand on Mortgagor or Guarantor in any case shall entitle Mortgagor or Guarantor to any other or further notice in similar or other circumstances.

 

34.  RIGHT OF SETOFF.  If an Event of Default occurs, Mortgagee, the Co-Lender and their respective Affiliates shall also have the right to setoff against the indebtedness any property held in a deposit or other account or otherwise owing by Mortgagee, the Co-Lender or their respective Affiliates including, in any capacity to any Mortgagor or Guarantor in any capacity whether or not the Indebtedness or the obligation to pay such moneys owed by Mortgagee and the Co-Lender is then due, and Mortgagee and the Co-Lender shall be deemed to have exercised such right of setoff immediately at the time of such election.

 

35.  TERM; SURVIVAL.  The term of this Mortgage and Mortgagor’s obligations hereunder shall continue until the Indebtedness has been fully paid to Mortgagee’s satisfaction.  Mortgagor’s obligation to pay the costs and expenses hereunder shall survive the term of this Mortgage and the entry of any judgment of foreclosure.  Mortgagor’s representations, warranties, covenants and agreements shall survive during the term of this Mortgage and shall be presumed to have been relied upon by Mortgagee.  If after receipt of any payment of all or any part of the Indebtedness, Mortgagee is for any reason compelled to surrender such payment to any person or entity because such payment is determined to be void or voidable as a preference, impermissible set-off, or a diversion of trust funds, or for any other reason, this Mortgage shall continue in full force notwithstanding any contrary action which may have been taken by Mortgagee in reliance upon such payment, and any such contrary action so taken shall be without prejudice to Mortgagee’s rights under this Mortgage and shall be deemed to have been conditioned upon such payment having become final and irrevocable.

 

36.  MISCELLANEOUS.  This Mortgage is absolute and unconditional.  This Mortgage and all documents, including the Note, any Guaranty and any other document required to be executed by Mortgagor or Guarantor in connection with the transaction contemplated hereby constitute the entire agreement and understanding between the parties hereto with respect to such transaction and supersedes all prior negotiations, courses of dealing, understandings, and agreements between such parties with respect to such transactions.

Any reference herein to “Mortgagee” shall be deemed to include and apply to every subsequent holder of this Mortgage and any reference herein to “Mortgagor”, or “Guarantor” shall include; (i) any successor individual or individuals, association, partnership, limited liability company or corporation to which all or substantially all of the business or assets of Mortgagor or Guarantor, as the case may be, shall have been transferred; (ii) in the case of a partnership Mortgagor or Guarantor (as the case may be) any new partnership which shall have been created by reason of the admission of any new partner or partners therein, or by reason of the dissolution of the existing partnership by voluntary agreement or the death, resignation or other withdrawal of any partner; and (iii) in the case of a corporate or limited liability company, Mortgagor or Guarantor (as the case may be) any other entity into or with which Mortgagor or Guarantor (as the case may be) shall have been merged, consolidated, reorganized, or absorbed.  It is the intent of Mortgagor and Mortgagee that the provisions of this Mortgage, other than those included in the New York statutory form of mortgage, shall be construed as affording to Mortgagee rights additional to, and not exclusive of, the rights conferred under the provisions contained in such statutory form.  Unless the context otherwise clearly requires, references to plural includes the singular and references to the singular include the plural; the word “or” has the inclusive meaning represented by the phrase “and/or”; the word “including”, “includes” and “include” shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation”; and captions or section headings are solely for convenience and not part of the substance of this Mortgage.  Any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement herein shall survive execution and delivery of this Mortgage and shall be deemed continuous.  Each provision of this Mortgage shall be interpreted as consistent with existing law and shall be deemed amended to the extent necessary to comply with any conflicting law.  If any provision nevertheless is held invalid, the other provisions shall remain in effect.  Mortgagor agrees that in any legal proceeding, a photocopy of this Mortgage kept in Mortgagee’s course of business may be admitted into evidence as an original.

 

37.  JOINT AND SEVERAL.  If there is more than one Mortgagor, each of them shall be jointly and severally liable for all amounts and obligations which become due or should be performed under this Mortgage and the term “Mortgagor” shall include each as well as all of them.

 

38.  GOVERNING LAW; JURISDICTION.  This Mortgage has been delivered to and accepted by Mortgagee and will be deemed to be made in the State of New York.  This Mortgage will be interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of New York excluding its conflict of laws rules.  MORTGAGOR AND MORTGAGEE HEREBY IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF ANY STATE OR FEDERAL COURT IN NEW YORK STATE IN NEW YORK OR WESTCHESTER COUNTY AND CONSENTS THAT MORTGAGEE MAY EFFECT ANY SERVICE OF PROCESS IN THE MANNER AND AT MORTGAGOR’S ADDRESS SET FORTH ABOVE FOR PROVIDING NOTICE OR DEMAND; PROVIDED THAT NOTHING CONTAINED IN THIS MORTGAGE WILL PREVENT MORTGAGEE FROM BRINGING ANY ACTION, ENFORCING ANY AWARD OR JUDGMENT OR EXERCISING ANY RIGHTS AGAINST MORTGAGOR INDIVIDUALLY, AGAINST ANY SECURITY OR AGAINST ANY PROPERTY OF 

 

  

20

  

 

MORTGAGOR WITHIN ANY OTHER COUNTY, STATE OR OTHER FOREIGN OR DOMESTIC JURISDICTION.  Mortgagor acknowledges and agrees that the venue provided above is the most convenient forum for both Mortgagee and Mortgagor.  Mortgagor waives any objection to venue and any objection based on a more convenient forum in any action instituted under this Mortgage.

 

39.  WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL.  MORTGAGOR AND MORTGAGEE HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY, AND INTENTIONALLY EACH WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY THEY MAY HAVE IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING, IN LAW OR IN EQUITY, IN CONNECTION WITH THIS MORTGAGE OR THE TRANSACTIONS RELATED THERETO.  MORTGAGOR REPRESENTS AND WARRANTS THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE OR AGENT OF MORTGAGEE HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT MORTGAGEE WILL NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THIS RIGHT TO JURY TRIAL WAIVER.  MORTGAGOR ACKNOWLEDGES THAT MORTGAGEE HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ACCEPT THIS MORTGAGE BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION.

 

40. RECOURSE LIABILITY.  No past, present or future member, or any past, present or future shareholder, partner, member, officer, employee, servant, executive, director, agent, authorized representative or affiliate of Borrower or any member of Borrower, (each such Person, an “Exculpated Party”) shall be personally liable for payments due hereunder or under any other Loan Document or for the performance of any obligation, or breach of any representation or warranty made by Borrower hereunder or thereunder.  The sole recourse of the Administrative Agent and the Lending Group for satisfaction of the obligations of Borrower hereunder and under any other Loan Document shall be against Borrower and its assets and not against any assets or property of any such Exculpated Party other than the direct or indirect ownership interest of such Exculpated Party in Borrower.  In the event that an Event of Default occurs in connection with such obligations, no action shall be brought against any such Exculpated Party by virtue of its direct or indirect ownership interest in Borrower.  In the event of foreclosure or other sale or disposition of the Premises, no judgment for any deficiency upon the obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be obtainable by the Administrative Agent or the Lending Group against any such Exculpated Party.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 40 shall affect or diminish the obligations of Borrower or Guarantor under or in respect of each Loan Document to which it is a party, including the Guarantees (including the right to name any Guarantor in any foreclosure action in connection with its obligations under the Guarantees).  Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 40, each Exculpated Party shall be personally (and on a full recourse basis) liable for and shall indemnify and defend Administrative Agent and the Lending Group from and against, and shall hold Administrative Agent and the Lending Group harmless of, from and against any deficiency, liability, loss, damage, costs, and expenses (including legal fees and disbursements) suffered by Administrative Agent and/or the Lending Group and caused by, or arising out of or as a result of any of the following:  (i) such Person’s commission of a criminal act, (ii) such Person’s failure to comply with the provisions of the Loan Documents prohibiting a transfer or Change of Control; (iii) such Person’s misappropriation of any cash flow or other revenue derived from or in respect of the Project, 

 

  

21

  

 

including security deposits, insurance proceeds, condemnation awards, or any rental, sales or other income derived directly or indirectly from the Project, or the misapplication of any of the foregoing sums, in either event, in contravention of any provision of this Mortgage or the other Loan Documents; (iv) such Person’s fraud or misrepresentation or inaccurate certification made at any time in connection with the Loan Documents or the Indebtedness; (v) such Person’s intentional interference with Administrative Agent’s (or the Lending Groups’) exercise of its rights under any of the Loan Documents; (vi) such Person’s intentional destruction or removal of fixtures or personal property securing the Obligations unless replaced by items of equal value and utility; (vii) such Person’s misapplication or misappropriation of funds disbursed from the Project Fund; (viii) such Person’s commissions of intentional waste to or of the Project or any portion thereof or failure to maintain the Project and the Premises in the manner required by the Loan Documents; (ix) failure to maintain the insurance coverage required by the Loan Documents; (x) failure to pay taxes, assessments and any other charges, including, without limitation, charges for labor or materials, which could result in prior liens against any portion of the Project; (xi) willful misconduct; (xii) Borrower files a voluntary petition under the Federal Bankruptcy Code or any other Federal or state bankruptcy or insolvency law; (xiii) such Person files or joins in the filing of, or solicits or acts in concert with, or colludes or conspires with petitioning creditors with respect to, an involuntary petition against Borrower under the Federal Bankruptcy Code or any other Federal or state bankruptcy or insolvency law; (xiv) Borrower files an answer consenting to or otherwise acquiescing in or joining in any involuntary petition filed against it, by any other Person under the Federal Bankruptcy Code or any other Federal or state bankruptcy or insolvency law; (xv) such Person consents to or acquiesces in or joins in an application for the appointment of a custodian, receiver, trustee, or examiner for Borrower or any portion of the Project; or (xvi) Borrower makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or admits, in writing or in any legal proceeding, its insolvency or inability to pay its debts as they become due.

 

41.  ASSIGNMENT.    Upon the request of Mortgagor, Mortgagee shall assign its rights under this Mortgage in the event of a refinance of the Premises provided the debt is repaid in full in connection therewith and such assignment is made without recourse and without representation or warranty and further provided that Mortgagee hereby agrees to pay to Mortgagee an assignment fee of $5,000.00 (the “Assignment Fee”) and to pay the reasonable fees of Mortgagee's counsel to prepare such assignment, notwithstanding the foregoing, this Assignment Fee shall be in addition to not substitution for any Exit Fee that may or may not be due in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Loan Documents.

 

42.      MAXIMUM AMOUNT OF INDEBTEDNESS. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in his Mortgage, the maximum aggregate principal amount of indebtedness that is, or under any contingency may be, secured by this Mortgage (including Mortgagor 's obligation to reimburse advances made by Mortgagee), either at execution or any time thereafter is $3,000,000.00 (the "Secured Amount"), plus all interest, amounts that Mortgagee has advanced to Mortgagor in accordance with the Loan Documents and that Mortgagee expends after a declaration of default under the Mortgage to the extent that any such amounts shall constitute payment of (i) taxes, charges or assessments that may be imposed by law upon the Premises; (ii) premiums on insurance policies covering the Premises; (iii) expenses incurred in upholding the lien of this Mortgage, including the expenses of any litigation to prosecute or defend the rights and lien created by this Mortgage; or, (iv) any amount, cost or charge to which

 

 

 

  

22

  

 

 

 Mortgagee becomes subrogated, upon payment, whether under recognized principles of law or equity, or under express statutory authority; then, in each such event, such amounts or costs, together with interest thereon, shall be added to the indebtedness secured hereby and shall be secured by this Mortgage.

 

43.      PARTIAL RELEASE.   Mortgagee hereby agrees to release Lot 7 from the lien of this Mortgage upon the delivery of an opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Mortgagee, and Mortgagee's counsel that after release of Lot 7, the Plans and Specifications and the Project comply with zoning, such opinion to be in form satisfactory to Mortgagee and Mortgagee's Counsel for a release price of One Dollar, (“Release Price”).  In addition to the Release Price, Mortgagor shall pay all costs and expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements and all title insurance premiums, recording fees, taxes and charges, incurred by Mortgagee in connection with the matters to be approved or performed herein. The Mortgagor shall execute and deliver (or shall have caused to be executed and delivered) to the Mortgagee all of the documents necessary, if any, to modify the Loan Documents.

1.

	
“Building Loan Agreement” shall mean the building loan agreement between Borrower and the Lender dated January 12, 2010, as supplemented by the supplemental building loan agreement, dated as of the date hereof and as the same may be further supplemented, amended, modified or replaced from time to time in connection with the construction and mortgage financing of real property described in the Mortgage.

“Loan Agreement” shall mean the loan agreement between Borrower and the Lender dated the date hereof in connection with the mortgage financing of real property described in the Mortgage, as the same may be amended, modified or replaced from time to time.

	
5.

6.

	
“Maturity Date” is the earlier of (i) January 12, 2012; or (ii) any earlier date on which this Note is required to be paid in full, by acceleration or otherwise, under the Loan Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents.

	
7.

8.

	
“Principal Sum” shall mean One Million Five Hundred Sixty Two Thousand Five Hundred Dollars ($1,562,500.00).

Promise to Pay.  For value received, and intending to be legally bound, the undersigned Borrower promises to pay to the order of M&T at its office identified above in lawful money of the United States and in immediately available funds, the Principal Sum or so much thereof as may be advanced, plus interest on the unpaid portion of the Principal Sum, all amounts, if any, required for the Escrow, and all Expenses (defined below).

 

 

  

1

  

 

Interest.  The unpaid Principal Sum advanced to Borrower under this Note shall accrue interest each day from and including the date proceeds of this Note are advanced to, but not including, the date all amounts hereunder are paid in full, at a variable per annum rate that shall be equal to the LIBOR Rate, as defined in the Rider, provided, however that, at any time from the date that is forty-five (45) days before the Maturity Date until the Maturity Date, the Borrower may select the Base Rate, as defined in the Rider, by notifying Lender in writing of its selection, provided, further that, the Borrower may not choose the LIBOR Rate if any loan at the LIBOR Rate would extend beyond the Maturity Date.  The definition of LIBOR, LIBOR Rate, adjustments to the LIBOR Rate and other provisions relative thereto are contained on the Rider attached hereto and made a part of this Note.

Interest will be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve (12) months with the actual number of days of each month (28, 29, 30 or 31).

Maximum Legal Rate.  It is the intent of the Lender and Borrower that in no event shall such interest be payable at a rate in excess of the maximum rate permitted by applicable law (the “Maximum Legal Rate”).  Solely to the extent necessary to prevent interest under this Note from exceeding the Maximum Legal Rate, Borrower agrees that any amount that would be treated as excessive under a final judicial interpretation of applicable law shall be deemed to have been a mistake and automatically canceled and if received by the Lender shall be refunded to Borrower, without interest.

Default Rate.  Upon an Event of Default under any of the Loan Documents or immediately after maturity (whether due to the Maturity Date, by acceleration or otherwise) and continuing through a foreclosure sale, if any, until such time as title is transferred pursuant to such foreclosure sale, the interest rate on the unpaid Principal Sum shall be increased to a rate per annum of twenty-four percent (24%) (the “Default Rate”).  Any judgment entered hereon or otherwise in connection with any suit to collect amounts due hereunder shall bear interest at such Default Rate.  No failure to impose or delay in imposing the Default Rate shall be construed as a waiver by the Lender of its right to collect, and Borrower’s obligation to pay, interest at the Default Rate effective as of the date of maturity (whether due to the Maturity Date, by acceleration or otherwise).

Repayment of Principal and Interest.  Borrower shall pay the Principal Sum and interest owing pursuant to this Note to the Lender as follows:

	
  

	
(i)

	
Borrower shall pay accrued interest to Lender on the First Payment Date and on the first Business Day of each month thereafter to, but not including, the Maturity Date; and

	
  

	
(ii)

	
On the Maturity Date, Borrower shall pay the outstanding Principal Sum and all accrued and unpaid interest, premiums, Expenses and all other amounts owing pursuant to this Note and the Loan Documents and remaining unpaid.

Late Charge.  If Borrower fails to pay, within five (5) days of its due date, any amount due and owing pursuant to this Note or the Loan Documents, including, without limitation, any Escrow payment due and owing, Borrower shall immediately pay to the Lender a late charge equal to five percent (5%) of the delinquent amount (the “Late Fee”); provided, however, if Borrower has timely satisfied all conditions for an interest advance under the Loan Documents and there is sufficient availability under the construction budget and under the Loan to make a requested interest advance and Lender fails to make such an advance for any reason not within the control of Borrower, then a Late Fee shall not accrue with respect to such Interest payment.

Application of Payments.  Payments may be applied in any order at the sole discretion of the Lender, but prior to an Event of Default or Maturity Date, each payment pursuant to this Note shall be applied first to accrued and unpaid interest, next to principal due, next to the Escrow, next to late charges, and finally to Expenses, notwithstanding the foregoing in the sole discretion of the Lending Group, any partial payments may be applied to the payment of the Loan and/or the Mortgage Loan as such terms are defined in the Building Loan Agreement.

 

  

2

  

 

Prepayment.  Except to the extent provided in the paragraph entitled “Exit Fee” otherwise provided herein, Borrower shall have the option of paying the Principal Sum to the Lender in advance of the Maturity Date, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time upon written notice received by the Lender at least thirty (30) days prior to making such payment; provided, however, that together with such prepayment, Borrower shall pay to the Lender the Breakage Fee set forth on the Rider, attached to and made a part of this Note by reference.  Upon making any prepayment of the Principal Sum in whole, Borrower shall pay to the Lender all interest and Expenses owing pursuant to this Note or the Loan Documents and remaining unpaid.  Any partial payment of the Principal Sum shall be applied in inverse order of maturity.  In the event the Maturity Date of this Note is accelerated following an Event of Default, any tender of payment of the amount necessary to satisfy the entire indebtedness made after such Event of Default shall be expressly deemed a voluntary prepayment.  In such a case, to the extent permitted by law, the Lender shall be entitled to the amount necessary to satisfy the entire indebtedness, plus the Breakage Fee.

Exit Fee.  Borrower shall pay to the Lender, at the time of repayment of the Principal Sum, whether at the Maturity Date or otherwise, an “Exit Fee” equal to one-quarter of one percent (.25%) of the Principal Sum repaid; provided, however, that such Exit Fee shall be waived if:

 

 

(a) the Principal Sum is refinanced with the Lending Group; or

(b) Borrower elects to refinance the Principal Sum with a qualified third-party lender, provided:

(i)       Borrower has first provided the Lending Group with written notice that it has initiated discussions with a third-party lender; and

(ii)      Borrower has provided Lending Group with a copy of a bona fide proposal for financing from such third-party lender.  Such proposal shall be deemed to have been  submitted to the Lending Group no earlier than  ten (10) Business Days after the date of such notice provided for in item (i) above; and

(iii)     The Lending Group does not provide a refinancing proposal within twenty-one (21) Business Days of receipt of the third-party proposal that is substantially similar with respect to amount of loan proceeds, term, level of recourse, if any, interest rate and fees.

Borrower acknowledges and agrees that any breach of its obligations hereunder shall constitute an Event of Default under this Note.

Business Purpose.  This Note is being given by Borrower to the Lender in connection with the construction and mortgage financing of real property described in Mortgage and Borrower represents and warrants that the indebtedness evidenced by this Note is for a business purpose.

Events of Default; Acceleration.  This Note is issued pursuant to the Loan Agreement and is secured by the Mortgage, and the Lender is entitled to the benefits thereof.  Any Event of Default (as defined in the Mortgage, the Loan Agreement or the Building Loan Agreement) is an “Event of Default” under this Note, including, without limitation, Borrower’s breach of any obligations hereunder.  The maturity of this Note shall be accelerated and all amounts under this Note shall become immediately due and payable without any notice, demand, presentment or protest of any kind (each of which is waived by Borrower) (a) automatically, if Borrower or Mortgagor commences any bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding, if voluntary, or upon the lapse of sixty (60) days without dismissal thereof, if involuntary; (b) at the sole option of the Lender, upon or at any time or from time to time after the existence of an Event of Default; and (c) upon the Maturity Date.  After maturity (whether due to the Maturity Date, by acceleration or otherwise), interest on the outstanding Principal Sum shall accrue at the Default Rate and the Lender’s acceptance of any partial payment of the outstanding Principal Sum and/or payment of accrued interest shall not affect that all amounts under this Note are due and payable in full.

 

  

3

  

 

Expenses.  Borrower shall pay to the Lender and to Co-Lender on demand each reasonable cost and expense (including, but not limited to, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel to the Lender and to Co-Lender, whether internal or external and whether retained for advice, for litigation or for any other purpose) incurred by the Lender, the Co-Lender or their respective agents either directly or indirectly in connection with this Note including, without limitation, endeavoring to (1) collect any amount owing pursuant to this Note or negotiate or document a workout or restructuring; (2) enforce or realize upon any guaranty, endorsement or other assurance, any collateral or other security, or any subordination, directly or indirectly securing or otherwise directly or indirectly applicable in any such amount; or (3) preserve or exercise any right or remedy of the Lender and the Co-Lender pursuant to this Note (the “Expenses”).

Right of Setoff.  The Lender and the Co-Lender shall have the right to set off against the amounts owing under this Note any property held in a deposit or other account with the Lender or the Co-Lender or otherwise owing by the Lender or the Co-Lender in any capacity to Borrower or any endorser of this Note.  Such set-off shall be deemed to have been exercised immediately at the time the Lender, the Co-Lender or such affiliate elects to do so.

Miscellaneous.  This Note and any other document required to be executed by Borrower or any guarantor or other party in connection with the transaction contemplated hereby constitute the entire agreement and understanding between the parties hereto with respect to such transaction and supersedes all prior negotiations, courses of dealing, understandings, and agreements between such parties with respect to such transactions.  All rights and remedies of the Lender under applicable law, the Mortgage, the Loan Agreement, this Note or any document in connection with the transaction contemplated hereby or amendment thereof are cumulative and not exclusive.  No single, partial or delayed exercise by the Lender of any right or remedy shall preclude the subsequent exercise by the Lender at any time of any right or remedy of the Lender without notice.  No waiver or amendment of any provision of this Note shall be effective unless made specifically in writing by the Lender.  No course of dealing or other conduct, no oral agreement or representation made by the Lender, and no usage of trade, shall operate as a waiver of any right or remedy of the Lender.

BORROWER AND LENDER HEREBY IRREVOCABLY CONSENT TO THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF ANY STATE OR FEDERAL COURT IN THE STATE OF NEW YORK IN NEW YORK OR WESTCHESTER COUNTY, AND CONSENTS THAT THE LENDER MAY EFFECT ANY SERVICE OF PROCESS IN THE MANNER AND AT BORROWER’S ADDRESS SET FORTH ABOVE FOR PROVIDING NOTICE OR DEMAND; PROVIDED THAT NOTHING CONTAINED IN THIS NOTE WILL PREVENT THE LENDER FROM BRINGING ANY ACTION, ENFORCING ANY AWARD OR JUDGMENT OR EXERCISING ANY RIGHTS AGAINST BORROWER INDIVIDUALLY, AGAINST ANY SECURITY OR AGAINST ANY PROPERTY OF BORROWER WITHIN ANY OTHER COUNTY, STATE OR OTHER FOREIGN OR DOMESTIC JURISDICTION.  Borrower acknowledges and agrees that the venue provided above is the most convenient forum for both the Lender and Borrower.

“Adjustment Date” shall be the first calendar day of each month.

	
  

	
2)

	
“Applicable Interest Rate” shall mean either the LIBOR Rate or the Base Rate, as the case may be.

	
  

	
3)

	
“Base Month” shall mean the first month following the month in which the Note Set Date occurs.  For example, if the Note Set Date is March 10, then the “Base Month” would be April.

	
  

	
4)

	
“Base Rate” shall be equal to the greater of (a) the rate of interest announced by the Lender as its prime rate of interest in effect on the first day of each calendar month, plus one (1) percentage point or (b) an interest rate floor of 6.50% (the “Interest Rate Floor”).

	
  

	
5)

	
“Joint Business Day” shall mean any day of the year on which banking institutions in New York, New York are not authorized or required by law or other governmental action to close and, in connection with the LIBOR Rate, on which dealings are carried on in the London Interbank market.

	
  

	
6)

	
“LIBOR” means the rate per annum (rounded upward, if necessary, to the nearest 1/16th of 1%) obtained by dividing (i) the one month interest period London Interbank Offered Rate for United States dollar deposits in the London interbank market at approximately 11:00 a.m. London, England time (or as soon thereafter as practicable), as determined by the Lender from any broker, quoting service or commonly available source utilized by the Lender or its agents, by (ii) a percentage equal to 100% minus the stated maximum rate of all reserves required to be maintained against “Eurocurrency Liabilities” as specified in Regulation D (or against any other category of liabilities which includes deposits by reference to which the interest rate on any loan bearing interest at a LIBOR Rate is determined, or any category of extensions of credit or other assets which includes loans by a non-United States office of a bank to United States residents) on such date to any member bank of the Federal Reserve System. Notwithstanding any provision above, the practice of rounding to determine LIBOR may be discontinued at any time in the Lender’s sole discretion.

	
  

	
7)

	
“LIBOR Rate” shall mean the greater of (a) 4.00% percentage points above LIBOR or (b) the Interest Rate Floor.

	
  

	
8)

	
“Note Set Date” shall mean the date the first advance is made to Borrower.

LIBOR Rate Adjustments.  The LIBOR Rate shall be initially based on one month LIBOR in effect two (2) Joint Business Days before the Note Set Date, then adjusted on the first calendar day of the Base Month using the LIBOR in effect two (2) Joint Business Days prior to that first calendar day of the Base Month.  Thereafter, the LIBOR rate shall be adjusted on the Adjustment Date based on the applicable LIBOR in effect two (2) Joint Business Days prior to the respective Adjustment Date.

 

 

  

8

  

 

Inability to Determine LIBOR Rates.  If the Lender shall determine that for any reason adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining LIBOR with respect to this Note, the Lender will give notice of such determination to Borrower.  Upon such determination and notice, the Lender may convert the Applicable Interest Rate from the LIBOR Rate to the Base Rate.  Thereafter, the Lender may not maintain the Applicable Rate at the LIBOR Rate hereunder until the Lender revokes such notice in writing.

Increased Cost.  If the Lender shall determine that due to either (a) the introduction of any change (other than any change by way of imposition of or increase in reserve requirements included in the calculation of LIBOR) in or in the interpretation of any requirement of law, or (b) the compliance with any guideline or request from any central bank or other governmental authority (whether or not having the force of law), there shall be any increase in the cost to the Lender of agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining any loan at the LIBOR Rate, Borrower shall be liable for, and shall from time to time, upon demand therefor by the Lender, pay to the Lender such additional amounts as are sufficient to compensate the Lender for such increased costs.

Illegality.  If the Lender shall determine that the introduction of any law (statutory or common), treaty, rule, regulation, guideline or determination of an arbitrator or of a governmental authority or in the interpretation or administration thereof, has made it unlawful, or that any central bank or other governmental authority has asserted that it is unlawful for the Lender to make a loan at the LIBOR Rate then, on notice thereof by the Lender to Borrower, the Lender may suspend maintaining this loan at the LIBOR Rate until the Lender shall have notified Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination shall no longer exist and the Lender may convert the Applicable Interest Rate from the LIBOR Rate to the Base Rate.

Conversion.  The Lender may, in its sole discretion, convert the Applicable Interest Rate from the LIBOR Rate to the Base Rate upon the occurrence of an Event of Default.  The Applicable Rate shall automatically convert from the LIBOR Rate to the Base Rate on the date Borrower commences, or has commenced against it, any proceeding or request for relief under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws now or hereafter in effect in the United States of America or any state or territory thereof or any foreign jurisdiction or any formal or informal proceeding for the dissolution or liquidation of, settlement of claims against or winding up of affairs of Borrower.

Default Rate.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Note, the default rate of interest that the Lender may charge under the Note shall be at a rate per annum of twenty-four percent (24%).  Nothing herein shall be construed to be a waiver by the Lender to have any Loan accrue interest at the default rate or other rights of the Lender set forth in this Note.

Prepayment.  If Borrower prepays any principal amount (in whole or in part) when the Applicable Rate is the LIBOR Rate on or as of any day other than the last day of the selected interest period (other than regular installments of principal as set forth in the Note), or there is a conversion from the LIBOR Rate to the Base Rate, pursuant to the terms of this Note, on or as of any day other than the last day of the selected interest period, then Borrower shall be liable for and shall pay the Lender, on demand, an amount (the “Breakage Fee”) equal the actual amount of the liabilities, expenses, costs and/or funding losses that are a direct or indirect result of such prepayment, conversion or other condition described herein, including, without limitation, any liability, expense, cost (including administrative cost) or loss derived from liquidating or employing deposits acquired to fund or maintain the applicable loan through the end of the applicable interest period.  The Lender’s calculation of any Breakage Fee shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding upon Borrower.  Borrower acknowledges and understands that, upon demand for payment or acceleration of maturity (as applicable) of all indebtedness under this Note, any tender of payment made thereafter shall be deemed a voluntary prepayment and, to the extent permitted by law, Borrower shall pay to the Lender the appropriate Breakage Fee in connection therewith.

Promise to Pay.  For value received, and intending to be legally bound, the undersigned Borrower promises to pay to the order of Co-Lender at Capital One, N.A., Commercial Real Estate, 275, Broadhollow Road, P.O. Box 8914, Melville, NY 11747, Attention: Peter A. Welch, Senior Vice President in lawful money of the United States and in immediately available funds, the Principal Sum or so much thereof as may be advanced, plus interest on the unpaid portion of the Principal Sum, all amounts, if any, required for the Escrow, and all Expenses (defined below).

Interest.  The unpaid Principal Sum advanced to Borrower under this Note shall accrue interest each day from and including the date proceeds of this Note are advanced to, but not including, the date all amounts hereunder are paid in full, at a variable per annum rate that shall be equal to the LIBOR Rate, as defined in the Rider, provided, however that, at any time from the date that is forty-five (45) days before the Maturity Date until the Maturity Date, the Borrower may select the Base Rate, as defined in the Rider, by notifying Lender in writing of its selection, provided, further that, the Borrower may not choose the LIBOR Rate if any loan at the LIBOR Rate would extend beyond the Maturity Date.  The definition of LIBOR, LIBOR Rate, adjustments to the LIBOR Rate and other provisions relative thereto are contained on the Rider attached hereto and made a part of this Note.

 

  

1

  

 

Interest will be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve (12) months with the actual number of days of each month (28, 29, 30 or 31).

Maximum Legal Rate.  It is the intent of the Lender and Borrower that in no event shall such interest be payable at a rate in excess of the maximum rate permitted by applicable law (the “Maximum Legal Rate”).  Solely to the extent necessary to prevent interest under this Note from exceeding the Maximum Legal Rate, Borrower agrees that any amount that would be treated as excessive under a final judicial interpretation of applicable law shall be deemed to have been a mistake and automatically canceled and if received by the Lender shall be refunded to Borrower, without interest.

Default Rate.  Upon an Event of Default under any of the Loan Documents or immediately after maturity (whether due to the Maturity Date, by acceleration or otherwise) and continuing through a foreclosure sale, if any, until such time as title is transferred pursuant to such foreclosure sale, the interest rate on the unpaid Principal Sum shall be increased to a rate per annum of twenty-four percent (24%) (the “Default Rate”).  Any judgment entered hereon or otherwise in connection with any suit to collect amounts due hereunder shall bear interest at such Default Rate.  No failure to impose or delay in imposing the Default Rate shall be construed as a waiver by the Lender of its right to collect, and Borrower’s obligation to pay, interest at the Default Rate effective as of the date of maturity (whether due to the Maturity Date, by acceleration or otherwise).

Repayment of Principal and Interest.  Borrower shall pay the Principal Sum and interest owing pursuant to this Note to the Lender as follows:

	
  

	
(i)

	
Borrower shall pay accrued interest to Lender on the First Payment Date and on the first Business Day of each month thereafter to, but not including, the Maturity Date; and

	
  

	
(ii)

	
On the Maturity Date, Borrower shall pay the outstanding Principal Sum and all accrued and unpaid interest, premiums, Expenses and all other amounts owing pursuant to this Note and the Loan Documents and remaining unpaid.

Late Charge.  If Borrower fails to pay, within five (5) days of its due date, any amount due and owing pursuant to this Note or the Loan Documents, including, without limitation, any Escrow payment due and owing, Borrower shall immediately pay to the Lender a late charge equal to five percent (5%) of the delinquent amount (the “Late Fee”); provided, however, if Borrower has timely satisfied all conditions for an interest advance under the Loan Documents and there is sufficient availability under the construction budget and under the Loan to make a requested interest advance and Lender fails to make such an advance for any reason not within the control of Borrower, then a Late Fee shall not accrue with respect to such Interest payment.

Application of Payments.  Payments may be applied in any order at the sole discretion of the Lender, but prior to an Event of Default or Maturity Date, each payment pursuant to this Note shall be applied first to accrued and unpaid interest, next to principal due, next to the Escrow, next to late charges, and finally to Expenses, notwithstanding the foregoing in the sole discretion of the Lending Group, any partial payments may be applied to the payment of the Loan and/or the Mortgage Loan as such terms are defined in the Building Loan Agreement.

Prepayment.  Except to the extent provided in the paragraph entitled “Exit Fee” otherwise provided herein, Borrower shall have the option of paying the Principal Sum to the Lender in advance of the Maturity Date, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time upon written notice received by the Lender at least thirty (30) days prior to making such payment; provided, however, that together with such prepayment, Borrower shall pay to the Lender the 

 

  

2

  

 

Breakage Fee set forth on the Rider, attached to and made a part of this Note by reference.  Upon making any prepayment of the Principal Sum in whole, Borrower shall pay to the Lender all interest and Expenses owing pursuant to this Note or the Loan Documents and remaining unpaid.  Any partial payment of the Principal Sum shall be applied in inverse order of maturity.  In the event the Maturity Date of this Note is accelerated following an Event of Default, any tender of payment of the amount necessary to satisfy the entire indebtedness made after such Event of Default shall be expressly deemed a voluntary prepayment.  In such a case, to the extent permitted by law, the Lender shall be entitled to the amount necessary to satisfy the entire indebtedness, plus the Breakage Fee.

Exit Fee.  Borrower shall pay to the Lender, at the time of repayment of the Principal Sum, whether at the Maturity Date or otherwise, an “Exit Fee” equal to one-quarter of one percent (.25%) of the Principal Sum repaid; provided, however, that such Exit Fee shall be waived if:

 

 

(a)       the Principal Sum is refinanced with the Lending Group; or

(b)       Borrower elects to refinance the Principal Sum with a qualified third-party lender, provided:

(i)        Borrower has first provided the Lending Group with written notice that it has initiated discussions with a third-party lender; and

(ii)       Borrower has provided Lending Group with a copy of a bona fide proposal for financing from such third-party lender.  Such proposal shall be deemed to have been  submitted to the Lending Group no earlier than  ten (10) Business Days after the date of such notice provided for in item (i) above; and

(iii)    The Lending Group does not provide a refinancing proposal within twenty-one (21) Business Days of receipt of the third-party proposal that is substantially similar with respect to amount of loan proceeds, term, level of recourse, if any, interest rate and fees.

Borrower acknowledges and agrees that any breach of its obligations hereunder shall constitute an Event of Default under this Note.

Business Purpose.  This Note is being given by Borrower to the Lender in connection with the construction and mortgage financing of real property described in Mortgage and Borrower represents and warrants that the indebtedness evidenced by this Note is for a business purpose.

Events of Default; Acceleration.  This Note is issued pursuant to the Loan Agreement and is secured by the Mortgage, and the Lender is entitled to the benefits thereof.  Any Event of Default (as defined in the Mortgage, the Loan Agreement or the Building Loan Agreement) is an “Event of Default” under this Note, including, without limitation, Borrower’s breach of any obligations hereunder.  The maturity of this Note shall be accelerated and all amounts under this Note shall become immediately due and payable without any notice, demand, presentment or protest of any kind (each of which is waived by Borrower) (a) automatically, if Borrower or Mortgagor commences any bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding, if voluntary, or upon the lapse of sixty (60) days without dismissal thereof, if involuntary; (b) at the sole option of the Lender, upon or at any time or from time to time after the existence of an Event of Default; and (c) upon the Maturity Date.  After maturity (whether due to the Maturity Date, by acceleration or otherwise), interest on the outstanding Principal Sum shall accrue at the Default Rate and the Lender’s acceptance of any partial payment of the outstanding Principal Sum and/or payment of accrued interest shall not affect that all amounts under this Note are due and payable in full.

Expenses.  Borrower shall pay to the Lender and to Co-Lender on demand each reasonable cost and expense (including, but not limited to, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel to the Lender and to Co-Lender, whether internal or external and whether retained for advice, for litigation or for any other purpose) incurred by the Lender, the Co-Lender or their respective agents either directly or indirectly in connection with this Note including, without

limitation, endeavoring to (1) collect any amount owing pursuant to this Note or negotiate or document a workout or restructuring; (2) enforce or realize upon any guaranty, endorsement or other assurance, any collateral or other security, or any subordination, directly or indirectly securing or otherwise directly or indirectly applicable in any such amount; or (3) preserve or exercise any right or remedy of the Lender and the Co-Lender pursuant to this Note (the “Expenses”).

Right of Setoff.  The Lender and the Co-Lender shall have the right to set off against the amounts owing under this Note any property held in a deposit or other account with the Lender or the Co-Lender or otherwise owing by the Lender or the Co-Lender in any capacity to Borrower or any endorser of this Note.  Such set-off shall be deemed to have been exercised immediately at the time the Lender, the Co-Lender or such affiliate elects to do so.

Miscellaneous.  This Note and any other document required to be executed by Borrower or any guarantor or other party in connection with the transaction contemplated hereby constitute the entire agreement and understanding between the parties hereto with respect to such transaction and supersedes all prior negotiations, courses of dealing, understandings, and agreements between such parties with respect to such transactions.  All rights and remedies of the Lender under applicable law, the Mortgage, the Loan Agreement, this Note or any document in connection with the transaction contemplated hereby or amendment thereof are cumulative and not exclusive.  No single, partial or delayed exercise by the Lender of any right or remedy shall preclude the subsequent exercise by the Lender at any time of any right or remedy of the Lender without notice.  No waiver or amendment of any provision of this Note shall be effective unless made specifically in writing by the Lender.  No course of dealing or other conduct, no oral agreement or representation made by the Lender, and no usage of trade, shall operate as a waiver of any right or remedy of the Lender.  Borrower agrees that in any legal proceeding, a copy of this Note kept in the Lender’s course of business may be admitted into evidence as an original. This Note is a binding obligation enforceable against Borrower and its successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of the Lender and its successors and assigns.  If a court deems any provision of this Note invalid, the remainder of the Note shall remain in effect.  Section headings are for convenience only.  Singular number includes plural and neuter gender includes masculine and feminine as appropriate.

1)

	
“Adjustment Date” shall be the first calendar day of each month.

	
  

	
2)

	
“Applicable Interest Rate” shall mean either the LIBOR Rate or the Base Rate, as the case may be.

	
  

	
3)

	
“Base Month” shall mean the first month following the month in which the Note Set Date occurs.  For example, if the Note Set Date is March 10, then the “Base Month” would be April.

	
  

	
4)

	
“Base Rate” shall be equal to the greater of (a) the rate of interest announced by the Lender as its prime rate of interest in effect on the first day of each calendar month, plus one (1) percentage point or (b) an interest rate floor of 6.50% (the “Interest Rate Floor”).

	
  

	
5)

	
“Joint Business Day” shall mean any day of the year on which banking institutions in New York, New York are not authorized or required by law or other governmental action to close and, in connection with the LIBOR Rate, on which dealings are carried on in the London Interbank market.

	
  

	
6)

	
“LIBOR” means the rate per annum (rounded upward, if necessary, to the nearest 1/16th of 1%) obtained by dividing (i) the one month interest period London Interbank Offered Rate for United States dollar deposits in the London interbank market at approximately 11:00 a.m. London, England time (or as soon thereafter as practicable), as determined by the Lender from any broker, quoting service or commonly available source utilized by the Lender or its agents, by (ii) a percentage equal to 100% minus the stated maximum rate of all reserves required to be maintained against “Eurocurrency Liabilities” as specified in Regulation D (or against any other category of liabilities which includes deposits by reference to which the interest rate on any loan bearing interest at a LIBOR Rate is determined, or any category of extensions of credit or other assets which includes loans by a non-United States office of a bank to United States residents) on such date to any member bank of the Federal Reserve System. Notwithstanding any provision above, the practice of rounding to determine LIBOR may be discontinued at any time in the Lender’s sole discretion.

	
  

	
7)

	
“LIBOR Rate” shall mean the greater of (a) 4.00% percentage points above LIBOR or (b) the Interest Rate Floor.

	
  

	
8)

	
“Note Set Date” shall mean the date the first advance is made to Borrower.

LIBOR Rate Adjustments.  The LIBOR Rate shall be initially based on one month LIBOR in effect two (2) Joint Business Days before the Note Set Date, then adjusted on the first calendar day of the Base Month using the LIBOR in effect two (2) Joint Business Days prior to that first calendar day of the Base Month.  Thereafter, the LIBOR rate shall be adjusted on the Adjustment Date based on the applicable LIBOR in effect two (2) Joint Business Days prior to the respective Adjustment Date.

 

 

  

8

  

 

Inability to Determine LIBOR Rates.  If the Lender shall determine that for any reason adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining LIBOR with respect to this Note, the Lender will give notice of such determination to Borrower.  Upon such determination and notice, the Lender may convert the Applicable Interest Rate from the LIBOR Rate to the Base Rate.  Thereafter, the Lender may not maintain the Applicable Rate at the LIBOR Rate hereunder until the Lender revokes such notice in writing.

Increased Cost.  If the Lender shall determine that due to either (a) the introduction of any change (other than any change by way of imposition of or increase in reserve requirements included in the calculation of LIBOR) in or in the interpretation of any requirement of law, or (b) the compliance with any guideline or request from any central bank or other governmental authority (whether or not having the force of law), there shall be any increase in the cost to the Lender of agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining any loan at the LIBOR Rate, Borrower shall be liable for, and shall from time to time, upon demand therefor by the Lender, pay to the Lender such additional amounts as are sufficient to compensate the Lender for such increased costs.

Illegality.  If the Lender shall determine that the introduction of any law (statutory or common), treaty, rule, regulation, guideline or determination of an arbitrator or of a governmental authority or in the interpretation or administration thereof, has made it unlawful, or that any central bank or other governmental authority has asserted that it is unlawful for the Lender to make a loan at the LIBOR Rate then, on notice thereof by the Lender to Borrower, the Lender may suspend maintaining this loan at the LIBOR Rate until the Lender shall have notified Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination shall no longer exist and the Lender may convert the Applicable Interest Rate from the LIBOR Rate to the Base Rate.

Conversion.  The Lender may, in its sole discretion, convert the Applicable Interest Rate from the LIBOR Rate to the Base Rate upon the occurrence of an Event of Default.  The Applicable Rate shall automatically convert from the LIBOR Rate to the Base Rate on the date Borrower commences, or has commenced against it, any proceeding or request for relief under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws now or hereafter in effect in the United States of America or any state or territory thereof or any foreign jurisdiction or any formal or informal proceeding for the dissolution or liquidation of, settlement of claims against or winding up of affairs of Borrower.

Default Rate.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Note, the default rate of interest that the Lender may charge under the Note shall be at a rate per annum of twenty-four percent (24%).  Nothing herein shall be construed to be a waiver by the Lender to have any Loan accrue interest at the default rate or other rights of the Lender set forth in this Note.

Prepayment.  If Borrower prepays any principal amount (in whole or in part) when the Applicable Rate is the LIBOR Rate on or as of any day other than the last day of the selected interest period (other than regular installments of principal as set forth in the Note), or there is a conversion from the LIBOR Rate to the Base Rate, pursuant to the terms of this Note, on or as of any day other than the last day of the selected interest period, then Borrower shall be liable for and shall pay the Lender, on demand, an amount (the “Breakage Fee”) equal the actual amount of the liabilities, expenses, costs and/or funding losses that are a direct or indirect result of such prepayment, conversion or other condition described herein, including, without limitation, any liability, expense, cost (including administrative cost) or loss derived from liquidating or employing deposits acquired to fund or maintain the applicable loan through the end of the applicable interest period.  The Lender’s calculation of any Breakage Fee shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding upon Borrower.  Borrower acknowledges and understands that, upon demand for payment or acceleration of maturity (as applicable) of all indebtedness under this Note, any tender of payment made thereafter shall be deemed a voluntary prepayment and, to the extent permitted by law, Borrower shall pay to the Lender the appropriate Breakage Fee in connection therewith.

	STATE OF NEW YORK 	)
	 	: ss.
	COUNTY OF WESTCHESTER 	)

 

ROBERT MASTERS (the "Deponent"), as Senior Vice President of CANARSIE PLAZA LLC (the "Borrower"), being duly sworn, deposes and says:

1.           The Borrower is the holder of a fee interest in the premises commonly known as 8925 Foster Avenue, 8901 Avenue D, 8915 Avenue D, 870 Remsen Avenue, 856 Remsen Avenue, 8707 Foster Avenue, and 8709 Foster Avenue, Canarsie, New York 11236 (the "Premises"), more particularly described in a mortgage of even date herewith and the undersigned is fully familiar with the facts set forth herein.

 

2.           A Supplemental Building Loan Mortgage (the "Supplemental Mortgage") made between the Borrower and MANUFACTURERS AND TRADERS TRUST COMPANY ("M&T"), as the administrative agent for itself and other lenders (referred to collectively with M&T as the "Bank") dated as of the date hereof in the principal sum of $3,000,000.00 has been offered for recording simultaneously herewith and a mortgage tax of $84,000.00 due upon the recording of the Supplemental Mortgage presented for recording, simultaneously herewith are being paid at this time

 

3.           As collateral security for the Mortgage, Borrower has this day also executed and delivered a General Assignment of Rents (the "Assignment") encumbering the Premises, which Assignment is also being offered herewith for recording.  The Assignment is additional security for the Supplemental Mortgage only, and secures no other or additional indebtedness of the Borrower to the Bank.

 

4.           Since the Assignment does not create or secure a new or further indebtedness beyond the indebtedness which is already secured, or which under any contingency may be secured by the foregoing Supplemental Mortgage, your deponent respectfully requests exemption from further tax under Section 255 Article II of the Tax Law.

9.3              Cumulative Nature; Nonexclusive Exercise; and Waivers of Rights and Remedies.  All rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Agreement and its other agreements with the Borrower shall be cumulative, and no such right or remedy shall be exclusive of any other such right or remedy.  No single or partial exercise by the Administrative Agent of any right or remedy pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof, or any exercise of any other such right or remedy, by the Administrative Agent.  No course of dealing or other conduct heretofore pursued, accepted or acquiesced in, no course of performance or other conduct hereafter pursued, accepted or acquiesced in, no oral or written agreement or representation heretofore made, and no oral agreement or representation hereafter made, by the Administrative Agent, whether or not relied or acted upon, and no usage of trade, whether or not relied or acted upon, shall operate as a waiver of any right or remedy of the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise.  No delay by the Administrative Agent in exercising any such right or remedy, whether or not relied or acted upon, shall operate as a waiver thereof or of any other such right or remedy.  No notice or demand of any kind, and no attempted but unsuccessful notice or demand of any kind, by the Administrative Agent prior to exercising any such right or remedy on any one occasion, whether or not relied or acted upon, shall operate as a waiver of any right of the Administrative Agent to exercise the same or any other such right or remedy on such or any future occasion without any notice or demand of any kind.  No waiver by the Administrative Agent of any such right or remedy, or modification of this Agreement, shall be effective unless made in a writing duly executed by the Administrative Agent and specifically referring to such waiver.  No waiver by the Administrative Agent on any one occasion of any such right or remedy shall operate as a waiver thereof or of any other such right or remedy on any future occasion.

9.4              Entire Agreement; Modification; and Certain Consents and Waivers.  This Agreement contains the entire agreement between the Borrower and the Administrative Agent with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement, and supersedes each course of dealing or other conduct heretofore pursued, accepted or acquiesced in, and each oral or written agreement and representation heretofore made, by the Administrative Agent with respect thereto, whether or not relied or acted upon.  This Agreement shall not be amended except in writing, which writing is signed by both Borrower and Administrative Agent.  Except as expressly provided in this Agreement, this Agreement shall not be modified or terminated, no indebtedness, liability or obligation of the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement, and no right or remedy of the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise, shall be impaired or otherwise affected, by any act, omission or other thing.  The Borrower consents, without notice, to each act, omission and other thing that would or might, but for such consent, modify or terminate this Agreement or impair or otherwise affect any such indebtedness, liability, obligation, right or remedy created pursuant to this Agreement.  The Borrower waives, without notice, each act and other thing upon which, but for such waiver, any indebtedness, liability or obligation of the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement or any right or remedy of the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise, would or might be conditioned.

 

  

  

  

9.5              Right of Setoff.  If an Event of Default occurs, the Administrative Agent and its affiliates and the Co-Lender shall also have the right to setoff against the indebtedness any property held in a deposit or other account by the Administrative Agent and its affiliates and the Co-Lender or otherwise owing by the Administrative Agent or its affiliates or the Co-Lender including, in any capacity to the Borrower in any capacity whether or not the indebtedness or the obligation to pay such moneys owed by the Administrative Agent or its affiliates or the Co-Lender is then due, and the Administrative Agent and the Co-Lender shall be deemed to have exercised such right of setoff immediately at the time of such election.

9.6              IntraLinks.  Borrower hereby acknowledges that (a) Administrative Agent will make available to the Lending Group all information provided by or on behalf of Borrower or Guarantor hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (collectively, “Borrower Materials”) by posting the Borrower Materials on IntraLinks® or another similar electronic system (the “Platform”) and (b) certain members of the Lending Group (each, a “Public Lender”) may have personnel who do not wish to receive material non-public information with respect to Borrower or its Affiliates, or the respective securities of any of the foregoing, and who may be engaged in investment and other market-related activities with respect to such Person’s securities.  Borrower hereby agrees that (w) all Borrower Materials that are to be made available to Public Lenders shall be clearly and conspicuously marked “PUBLIC” which, at a minimum, shall mean that the word  “PUBLIC” shall appear prominently on the first page thereof; (x) by marking Borrower Materials “PUBLIC”, Borrower shall be deemed to have authorized Administrative Agent and the Lending Group to treat such Borrower Materials as either publicly available information or not containing any material non-public information (although it may be sensitive and proprietary) with respect to Borrower or its securities for purposes of United States Federal and state securities laws; (y) all Borrower Materials marked “PUBLIC” are permitted to be made available through a portion of the Platform designated “Public Investor”; and (z) Administrative Agent shall be entitled to treat any Borrower Materials that are not marked “PUBLIC” as being suitable only for posting on a portion of the Platform not designated “Public Investor”.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower shall be under no obligation to mark any Borrower Materials “PUBLIC.”  Borrower agrees to pay or reimburse Administrative Agent upon demand for all reasonable fees, costs and expenses incurred in connection with any Platform.

This Agreement will be interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of New York excluding its conflict of laws rules.  THE BORROWER AND ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT HEREBY IRREVOCABLY CONSENT TO THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF FEDERAL COURT IN THE STATE OF NEW YORK IN A COUNTY WHERE THE PROPERTY IS LOCATED AND THE STATE OF NEW YORK IN NEW YORK OR WESTCHESTER COUNTY AND CONSENTS THAT THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT MAY EFFECT ANY SERVICE OF PROCESS IN ANY MANNER LEGALLY PERMITTED BY THE COURT HAVING JURISDICTION OVER THE MATTER AT ISSUE AND AT THE BORROWER’S ADDRESS SET FORTH ABOVE FOR PROVIDING NOTICE OR DEMAND; PROVIDED THAT NOTHING CONTAINED IN THIS AGREEMENT WILL PREVENT THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT FROM BRINGING ANY ACTION, ENFORCING ANY AWARD OR JUDGMENT OR EXERCISING ANY RIGHTS AGAINST THE BORROWER INDIVIDUALLY, AGAINST ANY SECURITY OR AGAINST ANY PROPERTY OF THE BORROWER WITHIN ANY OTHER COUNTY, STATE OR OTHER FOREIGN OR DOMESTIC JURISDICTION.  The Borrower acknowledges and agrees that the venue provided above is the most convenient forum for both the Administrative Agent and the Borrower.  The Borrower waives any objection to venue and any objection based on a more convenient forum in any action instituted under this Agreement.

Except as expressly provided in this Agreement, each right and remedy of the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Agreement, and each action of the Administrative Agent pursuant to the authorization and appointment as attorney-in-fact contained in this Agreement, may be exercised or taken (i) at any time and from time to time; (ii) at the sole option of the Administrative Agent or its agents; (iii) without any notice or demand of any kind; and (iv) whether or not any Event of Default has occurred or existed, but the Administrative Agent shall not be obligated to exercise any such right or remedy or to take any such action.  Each request of the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Agreement may be made (i) at any time and from time to time; (ii) at the sole option of the Administrative Agent or its agents; and (iii) whether or not any Event of Default has occurred or existed.  Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law.  If, however, any such provision shall be prohibited by or invalid under such law, it shall be deemed modified to conform to the minimum requirements of such law, or; if for any reason it is not deemed so modified, it shall be prohibited or invalid only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity without the remainder thereof or any other such provision being prohibited or invalid.  Any provision of this Agreement that prohibits the Borrower from taking any action shall be construed to prohibit the Borrower from taking such action directly or indirectly.  Except as expressly provided in this Agreement, any reference in this Agreement to any statute, regulation or other law shall be deemed to be as of any time a reference to such statute, regulation or other law as in effect at such time or; if such statute, regulation or other law is not in effect at such time, a reference to any similar statute, regulation or other law in effect at such time.  Unless the context otherwise clearly requires, references to plural includes the singular and references to the singular include the plural; the word “or” has the inclusive meaning represented by the phrase “and/or”; the word “including”, “includes” and “include” shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation”; and captions or section headings are solely for convenience and not part of the substance of this Agreement.  Any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement herein shall survive execution and delivery of this Agreement and shall be deemed continuous.  Any reference to the Administrative Agent’s agents shall include M&T Real Estate Trust.  Without limiting the generality of any reference hereunder to an agent of the Administrative Agent, any right or remedy granted to the Administrative Agent under this Agreement, including the right to be reimbursed for expenses hereunder, shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by both the Administrative Agent and its agents.

 

  

  

  

9.10              WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL.  THE BORROWER AND THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY, AND INTENTIONALLY EACH WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY THEY MAY HAVE IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING, IN LAW OR IN EQUITY, IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS RELATED THERETO.

TOGETHER with all awards heretofore or hereafter made by any federal, state, county, municipal or other governmental authority, or by whomsoever made in any condemnation or eminent domain proceedings whatsoever, to the present or subsequent owners of the Premises or any portion thereof, for the acquisition for public purposes of the Premises or any portion thereof or any interest therein or any use thereof, or for consequential damages on account thereof, including any award for any change of grade of streets affecting the Premises or any portion thereof and any award for any damage to the Premises or any portion thereof or any interest therein or any use thereof.

Capitalized terms used herein but not otherwise defined herein shall have their respective meanings ascribed to them in the Loan Agreement.

MORTGAGOR COVENANTS WITH MORTGAGEE SO LONG AS THIS MORTGAGE IS IN EFFECT AS FOLLOWS:

1. INDEBTEDNESS.  The Indebtedness shall be paid as provided in the Note and as provided herein.  Additionally, Mortgagor acknowledges and agrees that any amounts now or hereafter due and owing from Mortgagor to Mortgagee arising from or in connection with any interest rate swap agreement, now existing or hereafter entered into between Mortgagor and Mortgagee, and any costs incurred by Mortgagee in connection therewith, including, without limitation, any interest, expenses, fees, penalties or other charges associated with any obligations undertaken by the Lending Group to hedge or offset the Lending Group’s obligations pursuant to such swap agreement, or the termination of any such obligations, shall be (i) deemed additional interest and/or a related expense (to be determined in the sole discretion of Mortgagee) due in connection with the principal amount of the Indebtedness secured by this Mortgage, (ii) included (in the manner described above) as part of the Indebtedness secured by this Mortgage, and secured by this Mortgage to the full extent thereof, and (iii) included in any judgment in any proceeding instituted by Mortgagee or its agents against Mortgagor for foreclosure of this Mortgage or otherwise.

 

  

  

  

2. INSURANCE.  (A) Mortgagor shall keep the Premises insured against each risk to which the Premises may from time to time be subject (including fire, vandalism and other risks covered by all risk insurance; if requested by Mortgagee, earthquake; if the Premises or any portion thereof are located in an area identified as an area having special flood hazards and in which flood insurance has been made available, flood; and loss of rents by reason of such risks) for the benefit of Mortgagee.  Such insurance shall be provided in such amounts, for such periods, in such form, with such special endorsements, on such terms and by such companies and against such risks as shall be satisfactory to Mortgagee.  Without limiting the generality of the preceding two sentences, each policy pursuant to which such insurance is provided shall contain a mortgagee clause, in form and substance satisfactory to Mortgagee, (a) naming Mortgagee as mortgagee and (b) providing that (i) all moneys payable pursuant to such insurance shall be payable to Mortgagee, (ii) such insurance shall not be affected by any act or neglect of Mortgagor or Mortgagee, any occupancy, operation or use of the Premises or any portion thereof for purposes more hazardous than permitted by the terms of such policy, any foreclosure or other proceeding or notice of sale relating to the Premises or any portion thereof or any change in the title to or ownership of the Premises or any portion thereof and (iii) such policy and such mortgagee clause may not be canceled or amended except upon thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to Mortgagee.  Mortgagor shall deliver evidence of property insurance to Mortgagee in form reasonably acceptable to Mortgagee, provided however that any  blanket property insurance policy shall specifically allocate to the Premises the amount of coverage from time to time required hereunder and shall otherwise provide the same protection as would a separate policy insuring only the Premises.  The acceptance by Mortgagee of evidence of property insurance from Mortgagor shall not be deemed or construed as an approval by Mortgagee of the form, sufficiency or amount of such insurance.  Mortgagee does not in any way represent that such insurance, whether in scope or coverage or limits of coverage, is adequate or sufficient to protect the business or interest of Mortgagor.  In the event of the foreclosure of this Mortgage, or a transfer of title to the Premises in extinguishment of the Indebtedness, all right, title and interest of Mortgagor in and to any such policies then in force shall pass to the purchaser or grantee of the Premises.  All the provisions of this Section 2 and any other provisions of this Mortgage pertaining to insurance which may be required under this Mortgage shall be construed with Section 254, Subdivision 4 of the New York Real Property Law, but, said Section 254 to the contrary notwithstanding, Mortgagor consents that Mortgagee may, without qualification or limitation by virtue of said Section 254, retain and apply the proceeds of any such insurance in satisfaction or reduction of the Indebtedness, whether or not then due and payable, or it may pay the same, wholly or in part, to any Mortgagor for the repair or replacement of the Premises or for any other purpose satisfactory to Mortgagee, without affecting the lien of this Mortgage for the full amount of the Indebtedness before the making of such payment.

(B)           Notwithstanding the provisions set forth above in Section 2(A), in the event that all or any part of the Premises is damaged by fire or other casualty, and Mortgagor promptly notifies Mortgagee of its desire to repair and restore the same, then, provided that the following terms and conditions are and remain fully satisfied by Mortgagor, Mortgagee shall have the right (but not the obligation) to make proof of loss for, settle and adjust any claim under, and receive the proceeds of, all insurance for loss of or damage to the Premises where the loss is estimated by Mortgagee to be One Million and 00/100 Dollars ($1,000,000.00) or more.  Mortgagee agrees to allow the insurance proceeds in an amount of up to One Million and 00/100 Dollars ($1,000,000.00) to be disbursed to Mortgagor for repair and restoration of the Premises:

(i)      no Event of Default or event which, with the giving of notice or the passage of time, or both, would constitute an Event of Default under this Mortgage shall have occurred and be continuing;

 

  

  

  

(ii)      Mortgagor shall have delivered evidence reasonably satisfactory to Mortgagee, in its sole reasonable discretion, that the Premises can be fully repaired and restored six (6) months prior to the maturity of the Note;

(iii)           BJ’S Wholesale Club, Inc. (“BJ’S”) has not cancelled that certain lease agreement with Mortgagor dated March 12, 2009 (the “BJ Lease”) and The City of New York acting through the Department of Citywide Administrative Services (“NYC”, collectively with BJ’S, the “Tenant”) has not cancelled that certain lease agreement with Mortgagor dated November 5, 2009 (the “NYC Lease”, collectively with the BJ Lease, the “Lease”), provided, however, that Mortgagor may contest any attempt by Tenant to cancel the Lease, however such proceeds shall not be disbursed to the Mortgagor until Mortgagee has received evidence that any such Lease has not been cancelled;

(iv)           Mortgagor shall have deposited with Mortgagee for disbursement in connection with the restoration the greater of:  (1) the applicable deductible under the insurance policies covering the loss; or (2) the amount by which the cost of restoration of the Premises to substantially the same value, condition and character as existed prior to such damage is reasonably estimated by Mortgagor, and approved by Mortgagee, in its reasonable judgment to exceed the net insurance proceeds available for restoration;

(v)      Mortgagor has paid as and when due all of Mortgagee’s direct, reasonable, out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the collection and disbursement of insurance proceeds, including without limitation, inspection, monitoring, engineering and legal fees.  If not paid within ten (10) days of demand, and at Mortgagee's option, such costs may be deducted from the disbursements made by Mortgagee or added to the sums secured by this Mortgage in accordance with the provisions of Section 28 hereof; and

(vi)           if the Tenant has commenced paying rent, Mortgagor shall have delivered evidence reasonably satisfactory to Mortgagee, in its sole reasonable discretion, that the portion of the Premises being renovated is covered by adequate business interruption insurance.

Mortgagee shall have the right to apply the proceeds toward reduction of the Indebtedness as provided by Section 2(A) above, provided however that, notwithstanding the provisions set forth above in Section 2(B), to the extent any provision of either of the BJ Lease or the NYC Lease shall conflict with the provisions of Section 2(B), then in such case the BJ Lease or the NYC Lease shall control.

3. ALTERATIONS, DEMOLITION OR REMOVAL.  No building, structure, other improvement, fixture or equipment or other personal property constituting any portion of the Premises shall be removed, demolished or substantially altered without the prior written consent of Mortgagee except as more fully set forth the Loan Agreement .

4. WASTE AND CHANGE IN USE.  No Mortgagor shall commit any waste on the Premises or make any change in the use of the Premises which may in any way increase any ordinary fire, environmental or other risk arising out of construction or operation.

 

  

  

  

5. MAINTENANCE AND REPAIRS.  Mortgagee acknowledges that construction is ongoing.  Subject to the aforesaid condition, Mortgagor shall keep and maintain all buildings, structures, other improvements, fixtures and equipment and other personal property constituting any portion of the Premises and the sidewalks and curbs abutting the Premises in good order and rentable and tenantable condition and state of repair.  In the event that the Premises or any portion thereof shall be damaged or destroyed by fire or any other casualty, or in the event of the condemnation or taking of any portion of the Premises as a result of any exercise of the power of eminent domain, Mortgagor shall promptly restore, replace, rebuild or alter the same as nearly as possible to the condition immediately prior to such fire, other casualty, condemnation or taking without regard to the adequacy of any proceeds of any insurance or award received.  Mortgagor shall give prompt written notice to Mortgagee of any such damage or destruction or of the commencement of any condemnation or eminent domain proceeding affecting the Premises or any portion thereof.

6. EXISTENCE AND AUTHORITY.

Upon request by Mortgagee, Mortgagor shall promptly deliver to Mortgagee receipted bills showing payment of all such taxes, assessments and impositions within the applicable grace period.

8. ESCROW FOR TAXES, ASSESSMENTS AND INSURANCE.  Upon request by Mortgagee in the event insufficient funds remain in the budget for the construction of the Improvement to fund taxes and insurance, Mortgagor shall pay (a) monthly to Mortgagee on or before the first day of each and every calendar month, until the Indebtedness is fully paid, a sum equal to one-twelfth (1/12th) of the yearly taxes, general and special assessments, other governmental impositions and other liens and charges with respect to the Premises to be imposed for the ensuing year, as estimated by Mortgagee in good faith, and annual premiums for insurance on the Premises and (b) an initial payment such that, when such monthly payments are added thereto, the total of such payments will be sufficient to pay such taxes, assessments, impositions and other liens and charges and such insurance premiums on or before the date when they become due.  Absent manifest error, Mortgagee’s calculation as to the amount to be paid into Escrow shall be deemed conclusive.  So long as no Event of Default (as hereinafter defined) shall have occurred or exists, Mortgagee shall hold such payments in trust in an account maintained with Mortgagee without obligation to pay interest thereon, except such interest as may be mandatory by any applicable statute, regulation or other law, to pay, to the extent funds are available, such taxes, assessments, impositions and other liens and charges and such insurance premiums within a reasonable time after they become due; provided, however, that upon the occurrence or existence of any Event of Default, Mortgagee may apply the balance of any such payments held to the Indebtedness.  If the total of such payments made by any Mortgagor shall exceed the amount of such payments made by Mortgagee, such excess shall be held or credited by Mortgagee for the benefit of Mortgagor.  If the total of such payments made by any Mortgagor shall be less than the amount of such taxes, assessments, impositions and other liens and charges and such insurance premiums, then Mortgagor shall pay to Mortgagee any amount necessary to make up the deficiency on or before the date when any such amount shall be due.

10. ASSIGNMENT OF LEASES AND RENTS.  Mortgagor hereby assigns to Mortgagee all existing and future leases of the Premises or any portion thereof (including any amendments, renewals, extensions or modifications thereof) and the rents, issues and profits of the Premises (“Accounts”), as further security for the payment of the Indebtedness, and Mortgagor grants to Mortgagee the right to enter upon and to take possession of the Premises for the purpose of collecting the same and to let the Premises or any portion thereof, and after payment of each cost and expense (including each fee and disbursement of counsel to Mortgagee) incurred by Mortgagee in such entry and collection, to apply the remainder of the same to the Indebtedness, without affecting its right to maintain any action theretofore instituted, or to bring any action thereafter, to enforce the payment of the Indebtedness.  In the event Mortgagee exercises such rights, it shall not thereby be deemed a mortgagee in possession, and it shall not in any way be made liable for any act or omission.

11. SECURITY AGREEMENT.  This Mortgage constitutes a security agreement under the New York Uniform Commercial Code in effect in the State of New York, as amended from time to time (the “UCC”), and Mortgagor hereby grants to Mortgagee, to secure the Indebtedness, a continuing security interest in all personal property of Mortgagor used in connection with any portion of, or otherwise constituting a portion of, the Premises, including, without limitation, fixtures, goods that are or are to become fixtures, as-extracted items and timber to be cut, as such terms and categories may be defined or described in the UCC, as applicable, whether now existing or owned or hereafter arising or acquired, and in all proceeds, products, rents, issues, profits and accounts arising therefrom.  Mortgagee shall have the right to file in any public office, without the signature of Mortgagor, any financing statement relating to such items of collateral.  Mortgagee shall have each applicable right and remedy of a secured party under the UCC and each applicable right and remedy pursuant to any other law or pursuant to this Mortgage.

 

  

  

  

12. NO TRANSFER.  Mortgagor shall not, without Mortgagee’s and the Lending Group’s prior written consent, sell, convey or transfer the Premises or any portion thereof or any interest therein or contract to do so.

Subject to the foregoing, the following transfers shall be permitted (the "Permitted Transfers") by the Lending Group:  (i) the sale, transfer, or issuance of stock in Acadia Realty Trust, in the ordinary course of business, provided such stock is listed on the NYSE or other nationally recognized stock exchange and/or (ii) any transfer that does not result in a Change of Control (as defined below).

13. NO SECONDARY FINANCING OR OTHER LIENS.  Except for that certain Mortgage made by Mortgagor in favor of Mortgagee in the principal sum of $48,000,000.00, dated January 12, 2010 as supplemented by that certain Supplemental Building Loan Mortgage made by Mortgagor in favor of Mortgagee in the principal sum of $3,000,000.00 dated as of the date hereof (the “Building Loan Mortgage”), Mortgagor shall not, without Mortgagee’s prior written consent, mortgage, pledge, assign, grant a security interest in or cause any other lien or encumbrance to be made or permit any other lien or encumbrance to exist upon the Premises or any portion thereof except for (a) taxes and assessments not yet delinquent and (b) any mortgage, pledge, security interest, assignment or other lien or encumbrance to Mortgagee or any affiliate of Mortgagee (an “Affiliate”).

(xii) any indication or evidence received by Mortgagee that Mortgagor may have directly or indirectly been engaged in any type of activity which, in Mortgagee’s reasonable discretion, might result in the forfeiture of the Premises to any governmental authority, including the material breach or default under any covenants, restrictions or other agreements recorded of record against the Premises;

(xiii) the occurrence of any event described in Section 27.1(i) through and including 27.1(xii) with respect to any Guarantor;

 

  

  

  

(xiv) Mortgagee in good faith believes that the prospect of payment of all or any part of the Indebtedness or performance of Mortgagor’s obligations under this Mortgage or any other agreement now or hereafter in effect between Mortgagor or Guarantor and Mortgagee or its Affiliates is impaired; or

(xvi) the occurrence of an Event of Default under any of the Loan Documents, the Loan Agreement, the Building Loan Mortgage or the Mortgage Loan Mortgage.

(b) Mortgagee, at its sole election, may declare all or any part of any Indebtedness not payable on demand to be immediately due and payable without demand or notice of any kind upon the happening of any Event of Default.  All or any part of any Indebtedness not payable on demand shall be automatically and immediately due and payable, without demand or notice of any kind, upon the commencement of Mortgagor’s or Debtor’s bankruptcy if voluntary and upon the lapse of sixty (60) days without dismissal if involuntary, unless an order for relief is entered sooner.  The provisions of this paragraph are not intended in any way to affect any rights of Mortgagee with respect to any Indebtedness which may now or hereafter be payable on demand.

(c) Upon the happening of an Event of Default, whether or not foreclosure proceedings have been instituted, Mortgagor shall, upon demand, surrender possession of the Premises to Mortgagee.  If Mortgagor remains in possession of the Premises after the happening of an Event of Default and demand by Mortgagee, the possession shall be as tenant of Mortgagee and Mortgagor agrees to pay in advance upon demand to Mortgagee a reasonable monthly rental for the Premises or portion so occupied.  Mortgagee may dispossess, by summary proceedings or otherwise, any tenant of Mortgagor defaulting in the payment of rent.  If a receiver is appointed, this covenant shall inure to the benefit of such receiver.  Notwithstanding any provision of law to the contrary, Mortgagee may, at its option, foreclose this Mortgage subject to the rights of tenants of the Premises which are subordinate to the lien of this Mortgage.

(d) If the Indebtedness, as evidenced by a single note or other written instrument shall exceed the amount secured by this Mortgage, or as evidenced by a combination of same that singularly or in part collectively may be less than said secured amount but combined exceed said secured amount, Mortgagee, in any foreclosure hereof, shall have the right to sue and collect the excess in the same action as commenced for the foreclosure hereof, and recover a money judgment for said excess with all the rights attendant thereto, including the issuance of an execution to the Sheriff for collection thereof, and Mortgagor hereby waives any defense based upon a claim that in doing so, Mortgagee is splitting its cause of action if it seeks to foreclose this Mortgage for part of the indebtedness and recover at law for another part.

(e) Upon the happening of an Event of Default, Mortgagee may pursue, take or refrain from pursuing any remedy for collection of the Indebtedness, including foreclosure of this Mortgage.

(f) Mortgagee may, either with or without entry or taking possession of the Premises as provided in this Mortgage or otherwise, personally or by its agents or attorneys, and without prejudice to the right to bring an action of foreclosure of this Mortgage:  (A) sell the Premises or any part thereof pursuant to any procedures provided by applicable law allowing non-judicial foreclosure of Mortgage by sale, and all estate, right, title, interest, claim and demand therein, and right of redemption thereof, at one or more sales as an entity or in parcels, and at such time and place upon such terms and after such notice thereof as may be required or permitted by applicable law or (B) take such steps to protect and enforce its rights whether by action, suit or proceeding in equity or at law for the specific performance of any covenant, condition or agreement in the Note or in this Mortgage, or in aid of the execution of any power granted in this Mortgage, or for any foreclosure under this Mortgage, or for the enforcement of any other appropriate legal or equitable remedy or otherwise as Mortgagee may elect.  Any reference in this Mortgage to an action or right of Mortgagee in regard to or in connection with a “foreclosure proceeding” shall be deemed to include a sale and/or proceeding under this subsection, including a non-judicial foreclosure of mortgage by sale.

 

  

  

  

28. EXPENSES.  Mortgagor shall pay to Mortgagee and the Co-Lender on demand all reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements whether for internal or outside counsel) incurred by Mortgagee and the Co-Lender in connection with the Indebtedness or the Mortgage including costs of collection, of preserving or exercising any right or remedy of Mortgagee under this Mortgage or any related security agreement or guaranty, of workout or bankruptcy proceedings by or against Mortgagor, of defending against any claim asserted as a direct or indirect result of the Indebtedness or of performing any obligation of any Mortgagor pursuant to this Mortgage or otherwise (including payment of any amount any Mortgagor is obligated to pay pursuant to this Mortgage and performance of any obligation of Mortgagor pursuant to this Mortgage).  Mortgagor agrees to defend and indemnify Mortgagee and the Co-Lender from any and all third party claims arising from Mortgagor’s duties as owner and/or occupant of the Premises, and further agrees to pay, upon demand, any expense that Mortgagee and the Co-Lender may incur (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements whether for internal or outside counsel) due to Mortgagor’s failure to provide appropriate defense and indemnification to Mortgagee and the Co-Lender in a timely manner.  Mortgagee and the Co-Lender reserves the right to have Mortgagor pay, upon demand, administrative fee(s) in regard to any administrative action Mortgagee and the Co-Lender is required or requested to take including the preparation of discharges, releases or assignments to third parties.  Costs and expenses shall accrue interest at the Default Rate from the date of demand until payment is actually received by Mortgagee and the Co-Lender.  Each such cost and expense and any interest thereon shall constitute part of the Indebtedness and be secured by this Mortgage and may be added to the judgment in any suit brought by Mortgagee,  the Co-Lender or their respective agents against any Mortgagor on this Mortgage.

29. NOTICES.  Any demand or notice hereunder or under any applicable law pertaining hereto shall be in writing and duly given if delivered to Mortgagor or to Mortgagee addressed as set forth below (or at such other address and person as shall be designated from time to time by any party hereto, as the case may be, in a written notice to the other parties hereto in the manner provided for in this Section 29.

30. LITIGATION.  Mortgagor shall promptly notify Mortgagee in writing of any litigation, proceeding, or counterclaim against, or of any investigation of, Mortgagor (or the threat thereof) if:  (i) the outcome of such litigation, proceeding, counterclaim, or investigation may materially and adversely affect the finances or operations of Mortgagor or title to, or the value of, any assets secured by the Mortgage or (ii) such litigation, proceeding, counterclaim, or investigation questions the validity of the Mortgage, the Note or any document executed in connection therewith including any guaranties or any action taken, or to be taken, pursuant to any such documents.  Mortgagor shall furnish to Mortgagee such information regarding any such litigation, proceeding, counterclaim, or investigation as Mortgagee shall request.

31. NOTICE OF NON-COMPLIANCE.  Mortgagor shall notify Mortgagee in writing of any failure by Mortgagor to comply with any provision of the Note, the Mortgage or any document executed in connection therewith immediately upon learning of such non-compliance, or if any representation, warranty or covenant contained in any such document is no longer true.  Mortgagor shall also immediately notify Mortgagee in writing if there is any material adverse change in any of the information or financial statements supplied to Mortgagee to induce Mortgagee to extend credit to Mortgagor or if such information or financial statement is required under this Mortgage or any other document executed in connection therewith.

32. COVENANTS SHALL RUN WITH THE LAND.  The covenants contained in this Mortgage shall run with the land and bind Mortgagor, each heir, legal representative, successor and assign of Mortgagor and each subsequent owner, encumbrancer, tenant and subtenant of the Premises or any portion thereof, and shall inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, Mortgagee and each successor and assign of Mortgagee.

 

  

  

  

33. NONWAIVER BY MORTGAGEE.  All rights and remedies of Mortgagee under this Mortgage and its other agreements with Mortgagor are cumulative, and no right or remedy shall be exclusive of any other right or remedy.  No single, partial or delayed exercise by Mortgagee or its agents of any right or remedy shall preclude full and timely exercise by Mortgagee or its agents at any time of any right or remedy of Mortgagee without notice or demand, at Mortgagee’s sole option.  No course of dealing or other conduct, no oral agreement or representation made by Mortgagee or its agents or usage of trade shall operate as a waiver of any right or remedy of Mortgagee.  No waiver of any right or remedy of Mortgagee hereunder shall be effective unless made specifically in writing by Mortgagee.  No notice or demand on Mortgagor or Guarantor in any case shall entitle Mortgagor or Guarantor to any other or further notice in similar or other circumstances.

34. RIGHT OF SETOFF.  If an Event of Default occurs, Mortgagee, the Co-Lender and their respective Affiliates shall also have the right to setoff against the indebtedness any property held in a deposit or other account or otherwise owing by Mortgagee, the Co-Lender or their respective Affiliates including, in any capacity to any Mortgagor or Guarantor in any capacity whether or not the Indebtedness or the obligation to pay such moneys owed by Mortgagee and the Co-Lender is then due, and Mortgagee and the Co-Lender shall be deemed to have exercised such right of setoff immediately at the time of such election.

35. TERM; SURVIVAL.  The term of this Mortgage and Mortgagor’s obligations hereunder shall continue until the Indebtedness has been fully paid to Mortgagee’s satisfaction.  Mortgagor’s obligation to pay the costs and expenses hereunder shall survive the term of this Mortgage and the entry of any judgment of foreclosure.  Mortgagor’s representations, warranties, covenants and agreements shall survive during the term of this Mortgage and shall be presumed to have been relied upon by Mortgagee.  If after receipt of any payment of all or any part of the Indebtedness, Mortgagee is for any reason compelled to surrender such payment to any person or entity because such payment is determined to be void or voidable as a preference, impermissible set-off, or a diversion of trust funds, or for any other reason, this Mortgage shall continue in full force notwithstanding any contrary action which may have been taken by Mortgagee in reliance upon such payment, and any such contrary action so taken shall be without prejudice to Mortgagee’s rights under this Mortgage and shall be deemed to have been conditioned upon such payment having become final and irrevocable.

36. MISCELLANEOUS.  This Mortgage is absolute and unconditional.  This Mortgage and all documents, including the Note, any Guaranty and any other document required to be executed by Mortgagor or Guarantor in connection with the transaction contemplated hereby constitute the entire agreement and understanding between the parties hereto with respect to such transaction and supersedes all prior negotiations, courses of dealing, understandings, and agreements between such parties with respect to such transactions.  This Mortgage is a binding obligation enforceable against Mortgagor and its heirs and legal representatives and its successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of Mortgagee and its successors and assigns.  Any reference herein to “Mortgagee” shall be deemed to include and apply to every subsequent holder of this Mortgage and any reference herein to “Mortgagor”, or “Guarantor” shall include; (i) any successor individual or individuals, association, partnership, limited liability company or corporation to which all or substantially all of the business or assets of Mortgagor or Guarantor, as the case may be, shall have been transferred; (ii) in the case of a partnership Mortgagor or Guarantor (as the case may be) any new partnership which shall have been created by reason of the admission of any new partner or partners therein, or by reason of the dissolution of the existing partnership by voluntary agreement or the death, resignation or other withdrawal of any partner; and (iii) in the case of a corporate or limited liability company, Mortgagor or Guarantor (as the case may be) any other entity into or with which Mortgagor or Guarantor (as the case may be) shall have been merged, consolidated, reorganized, or absorbed.  It is the intent of Mortgagor and Mortgagee that the provisions of this Mortgage, other than those included in the New York statutory form of mortgage, shall be construed as affording to Mortgagee rights additional to, and not exclusive of, the rights conferred under the provisions contained in such statutory form.  Unless the context otherwise clearly requires, references to plural includes the singular and references to the singular include the plural; the word “or” has the inclusive meaning represented by the phrase “and/or”; the word “including”, “includes” and “include” shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation”; and captions or section headings are solely for convenience and not part of the substance of this Mortgage.  Any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement herein shall survive execution and delivery of this Mortgage and shall be deemed continuous.  Each provision of this Mortgage shall be interpreted as consistent with existing law and shall be deemed amended to the extent necessary to comply with any conflicting law.  If any provision nevertheless is held invalid, the other provisions shall remain in effect.  Mortgagor agrees that in any legal proceeding, a photocopy of this Mortgage kept in Mortgagee’s course of business may be admitted into evidence as an original.

This Mortgage will be interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of New York excluding its conflict of laws rules.  MORTGAGOR AND MORTGAGEE HEREBY IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF ANY STATE OR FEDERAL COURT IN NEW YORK STATE IN NEW YORK OR WESTCHESTER COUNTY AND CONSENTS THAT MORTGAGEE MAY EFFECT ANY SERVICE OF PROCESS IN THE MANNER AND AT MORTGAGOR’S ADDRESS SET FORTH ABOVE FOR PROVIDING NOTICE OR DEMAND; PROVIDED THAT NOTHING CONTAINED IN THIS MORTGAGE WILL PREVENT MORTGAGEE FROM BRINGING ANY ACTION, ENFORCING ANY AWARD OR JUDGMENT OR EXERCISING ANY RIGHTS AGAINST MORTGAGOR INDIVIDUALLY, AGAINST ANY SECURITY OR AGAINST ANY PROPERTY OF MORTGAGOR WITHIN ANY OTHER COUNTY, STATE OR OTHER FOREIGN OR DOMESTIC JURISDICTION.  Mortgagor acknowledges and agrees that the venue provided above is the most convenient forum for both Mortgagee and Mortgagor.  Mortgagor waives any objection to venue and any objection based on a more convenient forum in any action instituted under this Mortgage.

 

  

  

  

39. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL.  MORTGAGOR AND MORTGAGEE HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY, AND INTENTIONALLY EACH WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY THEY MAY HAVE IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING, IN LAW OR IN EQUITY, IN CONNECTION WITH THIS MORTGAGE OR THE TRANSACTIONS RELATED THERETO.  MORTGAGOR REPRESENTS AND WARRANTS THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE OR AGENT OF MORTGAGEE HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT MORTGAGEE WILL NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THIS RIGHT TO JURY TRIAL WAIVER.  MORTGAGOR ACKNOWLEDGES THAT MORTGAGEE HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ACCEPT THIS MORTGAGE BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION.

40. RECOURSE LIABILITY.  No past, present or future member, or any past, present or future shareholder, partner, member, officer, employee, servant, executive, director, agent, authorized representative or affiliate of Borrower or any member of Borrower, (each such Person, an “Exculpated Party”) shall be personally liable for payments due hereunder or under any other Loan Document or for the performance of any obligation, or breach of any representation or warranty made by Borrower hereunder or thereunder.  The sole recourse of the Administrative Agent and the Lending Group for satisfaction of the obligations of Borrower hereunder and under any other Loan Document shall be against Borrower and its assets and not against any assets or property of any such Exculpated Party other than the direct or indirect ownership interest of such Exculpated Party in Borrower.  In the event that an Event of Default occurs in connection with such obligations, no action shall be brought against any such Exculpated Party by virtue of its direct or indirect ownership interest in Borrower.  In the event of foreclosure or other sale or disposition of the Premises, no judgment for any deficiency upon the obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be obtainable by the Administrative Agent or the Lending Group against any such Exculpated Party.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 40 shall affect or diminish the obligations of Borrower or Guarantor under or in respect of each Loan Document to which it is a party, including the Guarantees (including the right to name any Guarantor in any foreclosure action in connection with its obligations under the Guarantees).  Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 40, each Exculpated Party shall be personally (and on a full recourse basis) liable for and shall indemnify and defend Administrative Agent and the Lending Group from and against, and shall hold Administrative Agent and the Lending Group harmless of, from and against any deficiency, liability, loss, damage, costs, and expenses (including legal fees and disbursements) suffered by Administrative Agent and/or the Lending Group and caused by, or arising out of or as a result of any of the following:  (i) such Person’s commission of a criminal act, (ii) such Person’s failure to comply with the provisions of the Loan Documents prohibiting a transfer or Change of Control; (iii) such Person’s misappropriation of any cash flow or other revenue derived from or in respect of the Project, including security deposits, insurance proceeds, condemnation awards, or any rental, sales or other income derived directly or indirectly from the Project, or the misapplication of any of the foregoing sums, in either event, in contravention of any provision of this Mortgage or the other Loan Documents; (iv) such Person’s fraud or misrepresentation or inaccurate certification made at any time in connection with the Loan Documents or the Indebtedness; (v) such Person’s intentional interference with Administrative Agent’s (or the Lending Groups’) exercise of its rights under any of the Loan Documents; (vi) such Person’s intentional destruction or removal of fixtures or personal property securing the Obligations unless replaced by items of equal value and utility; (vii) such Person’s misapplication or misappropriation of funds disbursed from the Project Fund; (viii) such Person’s commissions of intentional waste to or of the Project or any portion thereof or failure to maintain the Project and the Premises in the manner required by the Loan Documents; (ix) failure to maintain the insurance coverage required by the Loan Documents; (x) failure to pay taxes, assessments and any other charges, including, without limitation, charges for labor or materials, which could result in prior liens against any portion of the Project; (xi) willful misconduct; (xii) Borrower files a voluntary petition under the Federal Bankruptcy Code or any other Federal or state bankruptcy or insolvency law; (xiii) such Person files or joins in the filing of, or solicits or acts in concert with, or colludes or conspires with petitioning creditors with respect to, an involuntary petition against Borrower under the Federal Bankruptcy Code or any other Federal or state bankruptcy or insolvency law; (xiv) Borrower files an answer consenting to or otherwise acquiescing in or joining in any involuntary petition filed against it, by any other Person under the Federal Bankruptcy Code or any other Federal or state bankruptcy or insolvency law; (xv) such Person consents to or acquiesces in or joins in an application for the appointment of a custodian, receiver, trustee, or examiner for Borrower or any portion of the Project; or (xvi) Borrower makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or admits, in writing or in any legal proceeding, its insolvency or inability to pay its debts as they become due.

 

  

  

  

 

41. ASSIGNMENT.     Upon the request of Mortgagor, Mortgagee shall assign its rights under this Mortgage in the event of a refinance of the Premises provided the debt is repaid in full in connection therewith and such assignment is made without recourse and without representation or warranty and further provided that Mortgagee hereby agrees to pay to Mortgagee an assignment fee of $5,000.00 (the “Assignment Fee”) and to pay the reasonable fees of Mortgagee's counsel to prepare such assignment, notwithstanding the foregoing, this Assignment Fee shall be in addition to not substitution for any Exit Fee that may or may not be due in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Loan Documents.

 

42. MAXIMUM AMOUNT OF INDEBTEDNESS.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in his Mortgage, the maximum aggregate principal amount of indebtedness that is, or under any contingency may be, secured by this Mortgage (including Mortgagor 's obligation to reimburse advances made by Mortgagee), either at execution or any time thereafter is $7,000,000.00 (the "Secured Amount"), plus all interest, amounts that Mortgagee has advanced to Mortgagor in accordance with the Loan Documents and that Mortgagee expends after a declaration of default under the Mortgage to the extent that any such amounts shall constitute payment of (i) taxes, charges or assessments that may be imposed by law upon the Premises; (ii) premiums on insurance policies covering the Premises; (iii) expenses incurred in upholding the lien of this Mortgage, including the expenses of any litigation to prosecute or defend the rights and lien created by this Mortgage; or, (iv) any amount, cost or charge to which Mortgagee becomes subrogated, upon payment, whether under recognized principles of law or equity, or under express statutory authority; then, in each such event, such amounts or costs, together with interest thereon, shall be added to the indebtedness secured hereby and shall be secured by this Mortgage.

 

  

  

  

43.               PARTIAL RELEASE.    Mortgagee hereby agrees to release Lot 7 from the lien of this Mortgage upon the delivery of an opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Mortgagee, and Mortgagee's counsel that after release of Lot 7, the Plans and Specifications and the Project comply with zoning, such opinion to be in form satisfactory to Mortgagee and Mortgagee's Counsel for a release price of One Dollar, (“Release Price”).  In addition to the Release Price, Mortgagor shall pay all costs and expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements and all title insurance premiums, recording fees, taxes and charges, incurred by Mortgagee in connection with the matters to be approved or performed herein. The Mortgagor shall execute and deliver (or shall have caused to be executed and delivered) to the Mortgagee all of the documents necessary, if any, to modify the Loan Documents.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, this Mortgage has been duly executed by Mortgagor the day and year first above written.

Definitions.  The following terms shall have the indicated meanings in this Note, capitalized terms used herein but not otherwise defined herein shall have their respective meanings ascribed to them in the Loan Agreement:

	
1.

	
“Building Loan Agreement” shall mean the building loan agreement between Borrower and the Lender dated January 12, 2010, as supplemented by the supplemental building loan agreement, dated as of the date hereof and as the same may be further supplemented, amended, modified or replaced from time to time in connection with the construction and mortgage financing of real property described in the Mortgage.

	
2.

	
“Escrow” shall mean any escrow requirement under the Mortgage or the Loan Agreement for the payment of taxes and/or other charges.

	
3.

	
“First Payment Date” shall mean the first day of February, 2011.

	
4.

	
“Loan Agreement” shall mean the loan agreement between Borrower and the Lender dated the date hereof in connection with the mortgage financing of real property described in the Mortgage, as the same may be amended, modified or replaced from time to time.

	
5.

	
“Loan Documents” shall mean this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Building Loan Agreement, the Mortgage, the Survey, the Title Insurance Policy, the Guarantees and all other instruments, certificates, legal opinions and documents executed and delivered by either or both of the Borrower or the Lender in connection with this Note, the Loan Agreement or the Building Loan Agreement.

	
6.

	
“Maturity Date” is the earlier of (i) January 12, 2012; or (ii) any earlier date on which this Note is required to be paid in full, by acceleration or otherwise, under the Loan Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents.

	
7.

	
“Mortgage” shall mean the third mortgage dated on or about the date of this Note executed by Borrower, as the same may be amended, modified or replaced from time to time, securing obligations arising pursuant to or in connection with this Note.

	
8.

	
“Principal Sum” shall mean Three Million Six Hundred Forty Five Thousand Eight Hundred Thirty Three Dollars ($3,645,833.00).

Promise to Pay.  For value received, and intending to be legally bound, the undersigned Borrower promises to pay to the order of M&T at its office identified above in lawful money of the United States and in immediately available funds, the Principal Sum or so much thereof as may be advanced, plus interest on the unpaid portion of the Principal Sum, all amounts, if any, required for the Escrow, and all Expenses (defined below).

Interest.  The unpaid Principal Sum advanced to Borrower under this Note shall accrue interest each day from and including the date proceeds of this Note are advanced to, but not including, the date all amounts hereunder are paid in full, at a variable per annum rate that shall be equal to the LIBOR Rate, as defined in the Rider, provided, however that, at any time from the date that is forty-five (45) days before the Maturity Date until the Maturity Date, the Borrower may select the Base Rate, as defined in the Rider, by notifying Lender in writing of its selection, provided, further that, the Borrower may not choose the LIBOR Rate if any loan at the LIBOR Rate would extend beyond the Maturity Date.  The definition of LIBOR, LIBOR Rate, adjustments to the LIBOR Rate and other provisions relative thereto are contained on the Rider attached hereto and made a part of this Note.

 

  

  

  

Interest will be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve (12) months with the actual number of days of each month (28, 29, 30 or 31).

Maximum Legal Rate.  It is the intent of the Lender and Borrower that in no event shall such interest be payable at a rate in excess of the maximum rate permitted by applicable law (the “Maximum Legal Rate”).  Solely to the extent necessary to prevent interest under this Note from exceeding the Maximum Legal Rate, Borrower agrees that any amount that would be treated as excessive under a final judicial interpretation of applicable law shall be deemed to have been a mistake and automatically canceled and if received by the Lender shall be refunded to Borrower, without interest.

Default Rate.  Upon an Event of Default under any of the Loan Documents or immediately after maturity (whether due to the Maturity Date, by acceleration or otherwise) and continuing through a foreclosure sale, if any, until such time as title is transferred pursuant to such foreclosure sale, the interest rate on the unpaid Principal Sum shall be increased to a rate per annum of twenty-four percent (24%) (the “Default Rate”).  Any judgment entered hereon or otherwise in connection with any suit to collect amounts due hereunder shall bear interest at such Default Rate.  No failure to impose or delay in imposing the Default Rate shall be construed as a waiver by the Lender of its right to collect, and Borrower’s obligation to pay, interest at the Default Rate effective as of the date of maturity (whether due to the Maturity Date, by acceleration or otherwise).

Repayment of Principal and Interest.  Borrower shall pay the Principal Sum and interest owing pursuant to this Note to the Lender as follows:

	
  

	
(i)

	
Borrower shall pay accrued interest to Lender on the First Payment Date and on the first Business Day of each month thereafter to, but not including, the Maturity Date; and

	
  

	
(ii)

	
On the Maturity Date, Borrower shall pay the outstanding Principal Sum and all accrued and unpaid interest, premiums, Expenses and all other amounts owing pursuant to this Note and the Loan Documents and remaining unpaid.

Late Charge.  If Borrower fails to pay, within five (5) days of its due date, any amount due and owing pursuant to this Note or the Loan Documents, including, without limitation, any Escrow payment due and owing, Borrower shall immediately pay to the Lender a late charge equal to five percent (5%) of the delinquent amount (the “Late Fee”); provided, however, if Borrower has timely satisfied all conditions for an interest advance under the Loan Documents and there is sufficient availability under the construction budget and under the Loan to make a requested interest advance and Lender fails to make such an advance for any reason not within the control of Borrower, then a Late Fee shall not accrue with respect to such Interest payment.

Application of Payments.  Payments may be applied in any order at the sole discretion of the Lender, but prior to an Event of Default or Maturity Date, each payment pursuant to this Note shall be applied first to accrued and unpaid interest, next to principal due, next to the Escrow, next to late charges, and finally to Expenses, nothwithstanding the foregoing in the sole discretion of the Lending Group, any partial payments may be applied to the payment of the Loan and/or the Mortgage Loan as such terms are defined in the Building Loan Agreement.

Prepayment.  Except to the extent provided in the paragraph entitled “Exit Fee” otherwise provided herein, Borrower shall have the option of paying the Principal Sum to the Lender in advance of the Maturity Date, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time upon written notice received by the Lender at least thirty (30) days prior to making such payment; provided, however, that together with such prepayment, Borrower shall pay to the Lender the Breakage Fee set forth on the Rider, attached to and made a part of this Note by reference.  Upon making any prepayment of the Principal Sum in whole, Borrower shall pay to the Lender all interest and Expenses owing pursuant to this Note or the Loan Documents and remaining unpaid.  Any partial payment of the Principal Sum shall be applied in inverse order of maturity.  In the event the Maturity Date of this Note is accelerated following an Event of Default, any tender of payment of the amount necessary to satisfy the entire indebtedness made after such Event of Default shall be expressly deemed a voluntary prepayment.  In such a case, to the extent permitted by law, the Lender shall be entitled to the amount necessary to satisfy the entire indebtedness, plus the Breakage Fee.

 

  

  

  

Exit Fee.  Borrower shall pay to the Lender, at the time of repayment of the Principal Sum, whether at the Maturity Date or otherwise, an “Exit Fee” equal to one-quarter of one percent (.25%) of the Principal Sum repaid; provided, however, that such Exit Fee shall be waived if:

 

(a) the Principal Sum is refinanced with the Lending Group; or

(b) Borrower elects to refinance the Principal Sum with a qualified third-party lender, provided:

(i) Borrower has first provided the Lending Group with written notice that it has initiated discussions with a third-party lender; and

(ii) Borrower has provided Lending Group with a copy of a bona fide proposal for financing from such third-party lender.  Such proposal shall be deemed to have been  submitted to the Lending Group no earlier than  ten (10) Business Days after the date of such notice provided for in item (i) above; and

(iii) The Lending Group does not provide a refinancing proposal within twenty-one (21) Business Days of receipt of the third-party proposal that is substantially similar with respect to amount of loan proceeds, term, level of recourse, if any, interest rate and fees.

Borrower acknowledges and agrees that any breach of its obligations hereunder shall constitute an Event of Default under this Note.

Business Purpose.  This Note is being given by Borrower to the Lender in connection with the construction and mortgage financing of real property described in Mortgage and Borrower represents and warrants that the indebtedness evidenced by this Note is for a business purpose.

Events of Default; Acceleration.  This Note is issued pursuant to the Loan Agreement and is secured by the Mortgage, and the Lender is entitled to the benefits thereof.  Any Event of Default (as defined in the Mortgage, the Loan Agreement or the Building Loan Agreement) is an “Event of Default” under this Note, including, without limitation, Borrower’s breach of any obligations hereunder.  The maturity of this Note shall be accelerated and all amounts under this Note shall become immediately due and payable without any notice, demand, presentment or protest of any kind (each of which is waived by Borrower) (a) automatically, if Borrower or Mortgagor commences any bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding, if voluntary, or upon the lapse of sixty (60) days without dismissal thereof, if involuntary; (b) at the sole option of the Lender, upon or at any time or from time to time after the existence of an Event of Default; and (c) upon the Maturity Date.  After maturity (whether due to the Maturity Date, by acceleration or otherwise), interest on the outstanding Principal Sum shall accrue at the Default Rate and the Lender’s acceptance of any partial payment of the outstanding Principal Sum and/or payment of accrued interest shall not affect that all amounts under this Note are due and payable in full.

Expenses.  Borrower shall pay to the Lender and to Co-Lender on demand each reasonable cost and expense (including, but not limited to, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel to the Lender and to Co-Lender, whether internal or external and whether retained for advice, for litigation or for any other purpose) incurred by the Lender, the Co-Lender or their respective agents either directly or indirectly in connection with this Note including, without limitation, endeavoring to (1) collect any amount owing pursuant to this Note or negotiate or document a workout or restructuring; (2) enforce or realize upon any guaranty, endorsement or other assurance, any collateral or other security, or any subordination, directly or indirectly securing or otherwise directly or indirectly applicable in any such amount; or (3) preserve or exercise any right or remedy of the Lender and the Co-Lender pursuant to this Note (the “Expenses”).

 

  

  

  

Right of Setoff.  The Lender and the Co-Lender shall have the right to set off against the amounts owing under this Note any property held in a deposit or other account with the Lender or the Co-Lender or otherwise owing by the Lender or the Co-Lender in any capacity to Borrower or any endorser of this Note.  Such set-off shall be deemed to have been exercised immediately at the time the Lender, the Co-Lender or such affiliate elects to do so.

Miscellaneous.  This Note and any other document required to be executed by Borrower or any guarantor or other party in connection with the transaction contemplated hereby constitute the entire agreement and understanding between the parties hereto with respect to such transaction and supersedes all prior negotiations, courses of dealing, understandings, and agreements between such parties with respect to such transactions.  All rights and remedies of the Lender under applicable law, the Mortgage, the Loan Agreement, this Note or any document in connection with the transaction contemplated hereby or amendment thereof are cumulative and not exclusive.  No single, partial or delayed exercise by the Lender of any right or remedy shall preclude the subsequent exercise by the Lender at any time of any right or remedy of the Lender without notice.  No waiver or amendment of any provision of this Note shall be effective unless made specifically in writing by the Lender.  No course of dealing or other conduct, no oral agreement or representation made by the Lender, and no usage of trade, shall operate as a waiver of any right or remedy of the Lender.  Borrower agrees that in any legal proceeding, a copy of this Note kept in the Lender’s course of business may be admitted into evidence as an original. This Note is a binding obligation enforceable against Borrower and its successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of the Lender and its successors and assigns.  If a court deems any provision of this Note invalid, the remainder of the Note shall remain in effect.  Section headings are for convenience only.

Joint and Several.  If there is more than one Borrower, each of them shall be jointly and severally liable for all amounts and obligations which become due under this Note and the term “Borrower” shall include each as well as all of them.

Governing Law; Jurisdiction.  This Note has been delivered to and accepted by the Lender and will be deemed to be made in the State of New York.  Except as otherwise provided under federal law, this Note will be interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of New York excluding its conflict of laws rules. BORROWER AND LENDER HEREBY IRREVOCABLY CONSENT TO THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF ANY STATE OR FEDERAL COURT IN THE STATE OF NEW YORK IN NEW YORK OR WESTCHESTER COUNTY, AND CONSENTS THAT THE LENDER MAY EFFECT ANY SERVICE OF PROCESS IN THE MANNER AND AT BORROWER’S ADDRESS SET FORTH ABOVE FOR PROVIDING NOTICE OR DEMAND; PROVIDED THAT NOTHING CONTAINED IN THIS NOTE WILL PREVENT THE LENDER FROM BRINGING ANY ACTION, ENFORCING ANY AWARD OR JUDGMENT OR EXERCISING ANY RIGHTS AGAINST BORROWER INDIVIDUALLY, AGAINST ANY SECURITY OR AGAINST ANY PROPERTY OF BORROWER WITHIN ANY OTHER COUNTY, STATE OR OTHER FOREIGN OR DOMESTIC JURISDICTION.  Borrower acknowledges and agrees that the venue provided above is the most convenient forum for both the Lender and Borrower.  Borrower waives any objection to venue and any objection based on a more convenient forum in any action instituted under this Note.

Waiver of Jury Trial.  BORROWER AND THE LENDER HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY, AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY BORROWER AND THE LENDER MAY HAVE IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING, IN LAW OR IN EQUITY, IN CONNECTION WITH THIS NOTE OR THE TRANSACTIONS RELATED HERETO.

The sole recourse of the Lender and the Lending Group for satisfaction of the obligations of Borrower hereunder and under any other Loan Document shall be against Borrower and its assets and not against any assets or property of any such Exculpated Party other than the direct or indirect ownership interest of such Exculpated Party in Borrower.  In the event that an Event of Default occurs in connection with such obligations, no action shall be brought against any such Exculpated Party by virtue of its direct or indirect ownership interest in Borrower.  In the event of foreclosure or other sale or disposition of the Premises, no judgment for any deficiency upon the obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be obtainable by the Lender or the Lending Group against any such Exculpated Party.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this paragraph shall affect or diminish the obligations of Borrower or Guarantor under or in respect of each Loan Document to which it is a party, including the Guarantees (including the right to name any Guarantor in any foreclosure action in connection with its obligations under the Guarantees).  Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this paragraph, each Exculpated Party shall be personally (and on a full recourse basis) liable for and shall indemnify and defend Lender and the Lending Group from and against, and shall hold Lender and the Lending Group harmless of, from and against any deficiency, liability, loss, damage, costs, and expenses (including legal fees and disbursements) suffered by Lender and/or the Lending Group and caused by, or arising out of or as a result of any of the following:  (i) such Person’s commission of a criminal act, (ii) such Person’s failure to comply with the provisions of the Loan Documents prohibiting a transfer or Change of Control; (iii) such Person’s misappropriation of any cash flow or other revenue derived from or in respect of the Project, including security deposits, insurance proceeds, condemnation awards, or any rental, sales or other income derived directly or indirectly from the Project, or the misapplication of any of the foregoing sums, in either event, in contravention of any provision of the Mortgage or the other Loan Documents; (iv) such Person’s fraud or misrepresentation or inaccurate certification made at any time in connection with the Loan Documents or the Indebtedness; (v) such Person’s intentional interference with Lender’s (or the Lending Groups’) exercise of its rights under any of the Loan Documents; (vi) such Person’s intentional destruction or removal of fixtures or personal property securing the Obligations unless replaced by items of equal value and utility; (vii) such Person’s misapplication or misappropriation of funds disbursed from the Project Fund; (viii) such Person’s commissions of intentional waste to or of the Project or any portion thereof or failure to maintain the Project and the Premises in the manner required by the Loan Documents; (ix) failure to maintain the insurance coverage required by the Loan Documents; (x) failure to pay taxes, assessments and any other charges, including, without limitation, charges for labor or materials, which could result in prior liens against any portion of the Project; (xi) willful misconduct; (xii) Borrower files a voluntary petition under the Federal Bankruptcy Code or any other Federal or state bankruptcy or insolvency law; (xiii) such Person files or joins in the filing of, or solicits or acts in concert with, or colludes or conspires with petitioning creditors with respect to, an involuntary petition against Borrower under the Federal Bankruptcy Code or any other Federal or state bankruptcy or insolvency law; (xiv) Borrower files an answer consenting to or otherwise acquiescing in or joining in any involuntary petition filed against it, by any other Person under the Federal Bankruptcy Code or any other Federal or state bankruptcy or insolvency law; (xv) such Person consents to or acquiesces in or joins in an application for the appointment of a custodian, receiver, trustee, or examiner for Borrower or any portion of the Project; or (xvi) Borrower makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or admits, in writing or in any legal proceeding, its insolvency or inability to pay its debts as they become due.

1)

	
“Adjustment Date” shall be the first calendar day of each month.

	
  

	
2)

	
“Applicable Interest Rate” shall mean either the LIBOR Rate or the Base Rate, as the case may be.

	
  

	
3)

	
“Base Month” shall mean the first month following the month in which the Note Set Date occurs.  For example, if the Note Set Date is March 10, then the “Base Month” would be April.

	
  

	
4)

	
“Base Rate” shall be equal to the greater of (a) the rate of interest announced by the Lender as its prime rate of interest in effect on the first day of each calendar month, plus one (1) percentage point or (b) an interest rate floor of 6.50% (the “Interest Rate Floor”).

	
  

	
5)

	
“Joint Business Day” shall mean any day of the year on which banking institutions in New York, New York are not authorized or required by law or other governmental action to close and, in connection with the LIBOR Rate, on which dealings are carried on in the London Interbank market.

	
  

	
6)

	
“LIBOR” means the rate per annum (rounded upward, if necessary, to the nearest 1/16th of 1%) obtained by dividing (i) the one month interest period London Interbank Offered Rate for United States dollar deposits in the London interbank market at approximately 11:00 a.m. London, England time (or as soon thereafter as practicable), as determined by the Lender from any broker, quoting service or commonly available source utilized by the Lender or its agents, by (ii) a percentage equal to 100% minus the stated maximum rate of all reserves required to be maintained against “Eurocurrency Liabilities” as specified in Regulation D (or against any other category of liabilities which includes deposits by reference to which the interest rate on any loan bearing interest at a LIBOR Rate is determined, or any category of extensions of credit or other assets which includes loans by a non-United States office of a bank to United States residents) on such date to any member bank of the Federal Reserve System. Notwithstanding any provision above, the practice of rounding to determine LIBOR may be discontinued at any time in the Lender’s sole discretion.

	
  

	
7)

	
“LIBOR Rate” shall mean the greater of (a) 4.00% percentage points above LIBOR or (b) the Interest Rate Floor.

	
  

	
8)

	
“Note Set Date” shall mean the date the first advance is made to Borrower.

LIBOR Rate Adjustments.  The LIBOR Rate shall be initially based on one month LIBOR in effect two (2) Joint Business Days before the Note Set Date, then adjusted on the first calendar day of the Base Month using the LIBOR in effect two (2) Joint Business Days prior to that first calendar day of the Base Month.  Thereafter, the LIBOR rate shall be adjusted on the Adjustment Date based on the applicable LIBOR in effect two (2) Joint Business Days prior to the respective Adjustment Date.

 

  

  

  

Inability to Determine LIBOR Rates.  If the Lender shall determine that for any reason adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining LIBOR with respect to this Note, the Lender will give notice of such determination to Borrower.  Upon such determination and notice, the Lender may convert the Applicable Interest Rate from the LIBOR Rate to the Base Rate.  Thereafter, the Lender may not maintain the Applicable Rate at the LIBOR Rate hereunder until the Lender revokes such notice in writing.

Increased Cost.  If the Lender shall determine that due to either (a) the introduction of any change (other than any change by way of imposition of or increase in reserve requirements included in the calculation of LIBOR) in or in the interpretation of any requirement of law, or (b) the compliance with any guideline or request from any central bank or other governmental authority (whether or not having the force of law), there shall be any increase in the cost to the Lender of agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining any loan at the LIBOR Rate, Borrower shall be liable for, and shall from time to time, upon demand therefor by the Lender, pay to the Lender such additional amounts as are sufficient to compensate the Lender for such increased costs.

Illegality.  If the Lender shall determine that the introduction of any law (statutory or common), treaty, rule, regulation, guideline or determination of an arbitrator or of a governmental authority or in the interpretation or administration thereof, has made it unlawful, or that any central bank or other governmental authority has asserted that it is unlawful for the Lender to make a loan at the LIBOR Rate then, on notice thereof by the Lender to Borrower, the Lender may suspend maintaining this loan at the LIBOR Rate until the Lender shall have notified Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination shall no longer exist and the Lender may convert the Applicable Interest Rate from the LIBOR Rate to the Base Rate.

Conversion.  The Lender may, in its sole discretion, convert the Applicable Interest Rate from the LIBOR Rate to the Base Rate upon the occurrence of an Event of Default.  The Applicable Rate shall automatically convert from the LIBOR Rate to the Base Rate on the date Borrower commences, or has commenced against it, any proceeding or request for relief under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws now or hereafter in effect in the United States of America or any state or territory thereof or any foreign jurisdiction or any formal or informal proceeding for the dissolution or liquidation of, settlement of claims against or winding up of affairs of Borrower.

Default Rate.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Note, the default rate of interest that the Lender may charge under the Note shall be at a rate per annum of twenty-four percent (24%).  Nothing herein shall be construed to be a waiver by the Lender to have any Loan accrue interest at the default rate or other rights of the Lender set forth in this Note.

Prepayment.  If Borrower prepays any principal amount (in whole or in part) when the Applicable Rate is the LIBOR Rate on or as of any day other than the last day of the selected interest period (other than regular installments of principal as set forth in the Note), or there is a conversion from the LIBOR Rate to the Base Rate, pursuant to the terms of this Note, on or as of any day other than the last day of the selected interest period, then Borrower shall be liable for and shall pay the Lender, on demand, an amount (the “Breakage Fee”) equal the actual amount of the liabilities, expenses, costs and/or funding losses that are a direct or indirect result of such prepayment, conversion or other condition described herein, including, without limitation, any liability, expense, cost (including administrative cost) or loss derived from liquidating or employing deposits acquired to fund or maintain the applicable loan through the end of the applicable interest period.  The Lender’s calculation of any Breakage Fee shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding upon Borrower.  Borrower acknowledges and understands that, upon demand for payment or acceleration of maturity (as applicable) of all indebtedness under this Note, any tender of payment made thereafter shall be deemed a voluntary prepayment and, to the extent permitted by law, Borrower shall pay to the Lender the appropriate Breakage Fee in connection therewith.

Promise to Pay.  For value received, and intending to be legally bound, the undersigned Borrower promises to pay to the order of Co-Lender at Capital One, N.A., Commercial Real Estate, 275, Broadhollow Road, P.O. Box 8914, Melville, NY 11747, Attention: Peter A. Welch, Senior Vice President in lawful money of the United States and in immediately available funds, the Principal Sum or so much thereof as may be advanced, plus interest on the unpaid portion of the Principal Sum, all amounts, if any, required for the Escrow, and all Expenses (defined below).

Interest.  The unpaid Principal Sum advanced to Borrower under this Note shall accrue interest each day from and including the date proceeds of this Note are advanced to, but not including, the date all amounts hereunder are paid in full, at a variable per annum rate that shall be equal to the LIBOR Rate, as defined in the Rider, provided, however that, at any time from the date that is forty-five (45) days before the Maturity Date until the Maturity Date, the Borrower may select the Base Rate, as defined in the Rider, by notifying Lender in writing of its selection, provided, further that, the Borrower may not choose the LIBOR Rate if any loan at the LIBOR Rate would extend beyond the Maturity Date.  The definition of LIBOR, LIBOR Rate, adjustments to the LIBOR Rate and other provisions relative thereto are contained on the Rider attached hereto and made a part of this Note.

 

  

  

  

Interest will be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve (12) months with the actual number of days of each month (28, 29, 30 or 31).

Maximum Legal Rate.  It is the intent of the Lender and Borrower that in no event shall such interest be payable at a rate in excess of the maximum rate permitted by applicable law (the “Maximum Legal Rate”).  Solely to the extent necessary to prevent interest under this Note from exceeding the Maximum Legal Rate, Borrower agrees that any amount that would be treated as excessive under a final judicial interpretation of applicable law shall be deemed to have been a mistake and automatically canceled and if received by the Lender shall be refunded to Borrower, without interest.

Default Rate.  Upon an Event of Default under any of the Loan Documents or immediately after maturity (whether due to the Maturity Date, by acceleration or otherwise) and continuing through a foreclosure sale, if any, until such time as title is transferred pursuant to such foreclosure sale, the interest rate on the unpaid Principal Sum shall be increased to a rate per annum of twenty-four percent (24%) (the “Default Rate”).  Any judgment entered hereon or otherwise in connection with any suit to collect amounts due hereunder shall bear interest at such Default Rate.  No failure to impose or delay in imposing the Default Rate shall be construed as a waiver by the Lender of its right to collect, and Borrower’s obligation to pay, interest at the Default Rate effective as of the date of maturity (whether due to the Maturity Date, by acceleration or otherwise).

Repayment of Principal and Interest.  Borrower shall pay the Principal Sum and interest owing pursuant to this Note to the Lender as follows:

	
  

	
(i)

	
Borrower shall pay accrued interest to Lender on the First Payment Date and on the first Business Day of each month thereafter to, but not including, the Maturity Date; and

	
  

	
(ii)

	
On the Maturity Date, Borrower shall pay the outstanding Principal Sum and all accrued and unpaid interest, premiums, Expenses and all other amounts owing pursuant to this Note and the Loan Documents and remaining unpaid.

Late Charge.  If Borrower fails to pay, within five (5) days of its due date, any amount due and owing pursuant to this Note or the Loan Documents, including, without limitation, any Escrow payment due and owing, Borrower shall immediately pay to the Lender a late charge equal to five percent (5%) of the delinquent amount (the “Late Fee”); provided, however, if Borrower has timely satisfied all conditions for an interest advance under the Loan Documents and there is sufficient availability under the construction budget and under the Loan to make a requested interest advance and Lender fails to make such an advance for any reason not within the control of Borrower, then a Late Fee shall not accrue with respect to such Interest payment.

Application of Payments.  Payments may be applied in any order at the sole discretion of the Lender, but prior to an Event of Default or Maturity Date, each payment pursuant to this Note shall be applied first to accrued and unpaid interest, next to principal due, next to the Escrow, next to late charges, and finally to Expenses, notwithstanding the foregoing in the sole discretion of the Lending Group, any partial payments may be applied to the payment of the Loan and/or the Mortgage Loan as such terms are defined in the Building Loan Agreement.

Prepayment.  Except to the extent provided in the paragraph entitled “Exit Fee” otherwise provided herein, Borrower shall have the option of paying the Principal Sum to the Lender in advance of the Maturity Date, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time upon written notice received by the Lender at least thirty (30) days prior to making such payment; provided, however, that together with such prepayment, Borrower shall pay to the Lender the Breakage Fee set forth on the Rider, attached to and made a part of this Note by reference.  Upon making any prepayment of the Principal Sum in whole, Borrower shall pay to the Lender all interest and Expenses owing pursuant to this Note or the Loan Documents and remaining unpaid.  Any partial payment of the Principal Sum shall be applied in inverse order of maturity.  In the event the Maturity Date of this Note is accelerated following an Event of Default, any tender of payment of the amount necessary to satisfy the entire indebtedness made after such Event of Default shall be expressly deemed a voluntary prepayment.  In such a case, to the extent permitted by law, the Lender shall be entitled to the amount necessary to satisfy the entire indebtedness, plus the Breakage Fee.

 

  

  

  

Exit Fee.  Borrower shall pay to the Lender, at the time of repayment of the Principal Sum, whether at the Maturity Date or otherwise, an “Exit Fee” equal to one-quarter of one percent (.25%) of the Principal Sum repaid; provided, however, that such Exit Fee shall be waived if:

 

(a) the Principal Sum is refinanced with the Lending Group; or

(b) Borrower elects to refinance the Principal Sum with a qualified third-party lender, provided:

(i) Borrower has first provided the Lending Group with written notice that it has initiated discussions with a third-party lender; and

(ii) Borrower has provided Lending Group with a copy of a bona fide proposal for financing from such third-party lender.  Such proposal shall be deemed to have been  submitted to the Lending Group no earlier than  ten (10) Business Days after the date of such notice provided for in item (i) above; and

(iii) The Lending Group does not provide a refinancing proposal within twenty-one (21) Business Days of receipt of the third-party proposal that is substantially similar with respect to amount of loan proceeds, term, level of recourse, if any, interest rate and fees.

Borrower acknowledges and agrees that any breach of its obligations hereunder shall constitute an Event of Default under this Note.

Business Purpose.  This Note is being given by Borrower to the Lender in connection with the construction and mortgage financing of real property described in Mortgage and Borrower represents and warrants that the indebtedness evidenced by this Note is for a business purpose.

Events of Default; Acceleration.  This Note is issued pursuant to the Loan Agreement and is secured by the Mortgage, and the Lender is entitled to the benefits thereof.  Any Event of Default (as defined in the Mortgage, the Loan Agreement or the Building Loan Agreement) is an “Event of Default” under this Note, including, without limitation, Borrower’s breach of any obligations hereunder.  The maturity of this Note shall be accelerated and all amounts under this Note shall become immediately due and payable without any notice, demand, presentment or protest of any kind (each of which is waived by Borrower) (a) automatically, if Borrower or Mortgagor commences any bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding, if voluntary, or upon the lapse of sixty (60) days without dismissal thereof, if involuntary; (b) at the sole option of the Lender, upon or at any time or from time to time after the existence of an Event of Default; and (c) upon the Maturity Date.  After maturity (whether due to the Maturity Date, by acceleration or otherwise), interest on the outstanding Principal Sum shall accrue at the Default Rate and the Lender’s acceptance of any partial payment of the outstanding Principal Sum and/or payment of accrued interest shall not affect that all amounts under this Note are due and payable in full.

Expenses.  Borrower shall pay to the Lender and to Co-Lender on demand each reasonable cost and expense (including, but not limited to, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel to the Lender and to Co-Lender, whether internal or external and whether retained for advice, for litigation or for any other purpose) incurred by the Lender, the Co-Lender or their respective agents either directly or indirectly in connection with this Note including, without limitation, endeavoring to (1) collect any amount owing pursuant to this Note or negotiate or document a workout or restructuring; (2) enforce or realize upon any guaranty, endorsement or other assurance, any collateral or other security, or any subordination, directly or indirectly securing or otherwise directly or indirectly applicable in any such amount; or (3) preserve or exercise any right or remedy of the Lender and the Co-Lender pursuant to this Note (the “Expenses”).

 

  

  

  

Right of Setoff.  The Lender and the Co-Lender shall have the right to set off against the amounts owing under this Note any property held in a deposit or other account with the Lender or the Co-Lender or otherwise owing by the Lender or the Co-Lender in any capacity to Borrower or any endorser of this Note.  Such set-off shall be deemed to have been exercised immediately at the time the Lender, the Co-Lender or such affiliate elects to do so.

Miscellaneous.  This Note and any other document required to be executed by Borrower or any guarantor or other party in connection with the transaction contemplated hereby constitute the entire agreement and understanding between the parties hereto with respect to such transaction and supersedes all prior negotiations, courses of dealing, understandings, and agreements between such parties with respect to such transactions.  All rights and remedies of the Lender under applicable law, the Mortgage, the Loan Agreement, this Note or any document in connection with the transaction contemplated hereby or amendment thereof are cumulative and not exclusive.  No single, partial or delayed exercise by the Lender of any right or remedy shall preclude the subsequent exercise by the Lender at any time of any right or remedy of the Lender without notice.  No waiver or amendment of any provision of this Note shall be effective unless made specifically in writing by the Lender.  No course of dealing or other conduct, no oral agreement or representation made by the Lender, and no usage of trade, shall operate as a waiver of any right or remedy of the Lender.  Borrower agrees that in any legal proceeding, a copy of this Note kept in the Lender’s course of business may be admitted into evidence as an original. This Note is a binding obligation enforceable against Borrower and its successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of the Lender and its successors and assigns.  If a court deems any provision of this Note invalid, the remainder of the Note shall remain in effect.  Section headings are for convenience only.  Singular number includes plural and neuter gender includes masculine and feminine as appropriate.

Time is of the essence as to all dates set forth herein, provided, however, that whenever performance hereunder would be due on a Saturday, Sunday or public holiday or the equivalent for banks generally under applicable federal law and, if no applicable federal law exists, then the applicable state law (any other day being a "Business Day"), such performance shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day.

Notices.  Any demand or notice hereunder or under any applicable law pertaining hereto shall be in writing and duly given if delivered to Borrower or to the Lender, addressed as set forth below (or at such other address and person as shall be designated from time to time by any party hereto, as the case may be, in a written notice to the other parties hereto in the manner provided for in this section).   Such notice or demand shall be deemed sufficiently given for all purposes when delivered (i) by personal delivery and shall be deemed effective when delivered, or (ii) by mail or courier and shall be deemed effective three (3) Business Days after deposit in an official depository maintained by the United States Post Office for the collection of mail or one (1) Business Day after delivery to a nationally recognized overnight courier service (e.g., Federal Express).  Notice by e-mail is not valid notice under this or any other agreement between Borrower and the Lender.

Joint and Several.  If there is more than one Borrower, each of them shall be jointly and severally liable for all amounts and obligations which become due under this Note and the term “Borrower” shall include each as well as all of them.

Governing Law; Jurisdiction.  This Note has been delivered to and accepted by the Lender and will be deemed to be made in the State of New York.  Except as otherwise provided under federal law, this Note will be interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of New York excluding its conflict of laws rules. BORROWER AND LENDER HEREBY IRREVOCABLY CONSENT TO THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF ANY STATE OR FEDERAL COURT IN THE STATE OF NEW YORK IN NEW YORK OR WESTCHESTER COUNTY, AND CONSENTS THAT THE LENDER MAY EFFECT ANY SERVICE OF PROCESS IN THE MANNER AND AT BORROWER’S ADDRESS SET FORTH ABOVE FOR PROVIDING NOTICE OR DEMAND; PROVIDED THAT NOTHING CONTAINED IN THIS NOTE WILL PREVENT THE LENDER FROM BRINGING ANY ACTION, ENFORCING ANY AWARD OR JUDGMENT OR EXERCISING ANY RIGHTS AGAINST BORROWER INDIVIDUALLY, AGAINST ANY SECURITY OR AGAINST ANY PROPERTY OF BORROWER WITHIN ANY OTHER COUNTY, STATE OR OTHER FOREIGN OR DOMESTIC JURISDICTION.  Borrower acknowledges and agrees that the venue provided above is the most convenient forum for both the Lender and Borrower.  Borrower waives any objection to venue and any objection based on a more convenient forum in any action instituted under this Note.

Waiver of Jury Trial.  BORROWER AND THE LENDER HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY, AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY BORROWER AND THE LENDER MAY HAVE IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING, IN LAW OR IN EQUITY, IN CONNECTION WITH THIS NOTE OR THE TRANSACTIONS RELATED HERETO.  BORROWER REPRESENTS AND WARRANTS THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE OR AGENT OF THE LENDER HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT THE LENDER WILL NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THIS JURY TRIAL WAIVER.  BORROWER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THE LENDER HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS NOTE BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION.

 

  

  

  

Recourse Liability.   No past, present or future member, or any past, present or future shareholder, partner, member, officer, employee, servant, executive, director, agent, authorized representative or affiliate of Borrower or any member of Borrower, (each such Person, an “Exculpated Party”) shall be personally liable for payments due hereunder or under any other Loan Document or for the performance of any obligation, or breach of any representation or warranty made by Borrower hereunder or thereunder.  The sole recourse of the Lender and the Lending Group for satisfaction of the obligations of Borrower hereunder and under any other Loan Document shall be against Borrower and its assets and not against any assets or property of any such Exculpated Party other than the direct or indirect ownership interest of such Exculpated Party in Borrower.  In the event that an Event of Default occurs in connection with such obligations, no action shall be brought against any such Exculpated Party by virtue of its direct or indirect ownership interest in Borrower.  In the event of foreclosure or other sale or disposition of the Premises, no judgment for any deficiency upon the obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be obtainable by the Lender or the Lending Group against any such Exculpated Party.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this paragraph shall affect or diminish the obligations of Borrower or Guarantor under or in respect of each Loan Document to which it is a party, including the Guarantees (including the right to name any Guarantor in any foreclosure action in connection with its obligations under the Guarantees).  Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this paragraph, each Exculpated Party shall be personally (and on a full recourse basis) liable for and shall indemnify and defend Lender and the Lending Group from and against, and shall hold Lender and the Lending Group harmless of, from and against any deficiency, liability, loss, damage, costs, and expenses (including legal fees and disbursements) suffered by Lender and/or the Lending Group and caused by, or arising out of or as a result of any of the following:  (i) such Person’s commission of a criminal act, (ii) such Person’s failure to comply with the provisions of the Loan Documents prohibiting a transfer or Change of Control; (iii) such Person’s misappropriation of any cash flow or other revenue derived from or in respect of the Project, including security deposits, insurance proceeds, condemnation awards, or any rental, sales or other income derived directly or indirectly from the Project, or the misapplication of any of the foregoing sums, in either event, in contravention of any provision of the Mortgage or the other Loan Documents; (iv) such Person’s fraud or misrepresentation or inaccurate certification made at any time in connection with the Loan Documents or the Indebtedness; (v) such Person’s intentional interference with Lender’s (or the Lending Groups’) exercise of its rights under any of the Loan Documents; (vi) such Person’s intentional destruction or removal of fixtures or personal property securing the Obligations unless replaced by items of equal value and utility; (vii) such Person’s misapplication or misappropriation of funds disbursed from the Project Fund; (viii) such Person’s commissions of intentional waste to or of the Project or any portion thereof or failure to maintain the Project and the Premises in the manner required by the Loan Documents; (ix) failure to maintain the insurance coverage required by the Loan Documents; (x) failure to pay taxes, assessments and any other charges, including, without limitation, charges for labor or materials, which could result in prior liens against any portion of the Project; (xi) willful misconduct; (xii) Borrower files a voluntary petition under the Federal Bankruptcy Code or any other Federal or state bankruptcy or insolvency law; (xiii) such Person files or joins in the filing of, or solicits or acts in concert with, or colludes or conspires with petitioning creditors with respect to, an involuntary petition against Borrower under the Federal Bankruptcy Code or any other Federal or state bankruptcy or insolvency law; (xiv) Borrower files an answer consenting to or otherwise acquiescing in or joining in any involuntary petition filed against it, by any other Person under the Federal Bankruptcy Code or any other Federal or state bankruptcy or insolvency law; (xv) such Person consents to or acquiesces in or joins in an application for the appointment of a custodian, receiver, trustee, or examiner for Borrower or any portion of the Project; or (xvi) Borrower makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or admits, in writing or in any legal proceeding, its insolvency or inability to pay its debts as they become due.

If a deposit account number is provided in the following blank Borrower hereby authorizes the Lender to debit Borrower’s deposit account #_________________________ with the Lender automatically for any amount which becomes due under this Note.

MORTGAGE NOTE

(LIBOR Rider)

Borrower: Canarsie Plaza LLC

Mortgage Note Original Principal Amount: $3,354,167.00

Mortgage Note Date: January 19, 2011

Definitions.  As used in this Rider, each capitalized term shall have the meaning specified in the Note and the following terms shall have the indicated meanings:

	
  

	
1)

	
“Adjustment Date” shall be the first calendar day of each month.

	
  

	
2)

	
“Applicable Interest Rate” shall mean either the LIBOR Rate or the Base Rate, as the case may be.

	
  

	
3)

	
“Base Month” shall mean the first month following the month in which the Note Set Date occurs.  For example, if the Note Set Date is March 10, then the “Base Month” would be April.

	
  

	
4)

	
“Base Rate” shall be equal to the greater of (a) the rate of interest announced by the Lender as its prime rate of interest in effect on the first day of each calendar month, plus one (1) percentage point or (b) an interest rate floor of 6.50% (the “Interest Rate Floor”).

	
  

	
5)

	
“Joint Business Day” shall mean any day of the year on which banking institutions in New York, New York are not authorized or required by law or other governmental action to close and, in connection with the LIBOR Rate, on which dealings are carried on in the London Interbank market.

	
  

	
6)

	
“LIBOR” means the rate per annum (rounded upward, if necessary, to the nearest 1/16th of 1%) obtained by dividing (i) the one month interest period London Interbank Offered Rate for United States dollar deposits in the London interbank market at approximately 11:00 a.m. London, England time (or as soon thereafter as practicable), as determined by the Lender from any broker, quoting service or commonly available source utilized by the Lender or its agents, by (ii) a percentage equal to 100% minus the stated maximum rate of all reserves required to be maintained against “Eurocurrency Liabilities” as specified in Regulation D (or against any other category of liabilities which includes deposits by reference to which the interest rate on any loan bearing interest at a LIBOR Rate is determined, or any category of extensions of credit or other assets which includes loans by a non-United States office of a bank to United States residents) on such date to any member bank of the Federal Reserve System. Notwithstanding any provision above, the practice of rounding to determine LIBOR may be discontinued at any time in the Lender’s sole discretion.

	
  

	
7)

	
“LIBOR Rate” shall mean the greater of (a) 4.00% percentage points above LIBOR or (b) the Interest Rate Floor.

	
  

	
8)

	
“Note Set Date” shall mean the date the first advance is made to Borrower.

LIBOR Rate Adjustments.  The LIBOR Rate shall be initially based on one month LIBOR in effect two (2) Joint Business Days before the Note Set Date, then adjusted on the first calendar day of the Base Month using the LIBOR in effect two (2) Joint Business Days prior to that first calendar day of the Base Month.  Thereafter, the LIBOR rate shall be adjusted on the Adjustment Date based on the applicable LIBOR in effect two (2) Joint Business Days prior to the respective Adjustment Date.

Inability to Determine LIBOR Rates.  If the Lender shall determine that for any reason adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining LIBOR with respect to this Note, the Lender will give notice of such determination to Borrower.  Upon such determination and notice, the Lender may convert the Applicable Interest Rate from the LIBOR Rate to the Base Rate.  Thereafter, the Lender may not maintain the Applicable Rate at the LIBOR Rate hereunder until the Lender revokes such notice in writing.

 

  

  

  

Increased Cost.  If the Lender shall determine that due to either (a) the introduction of any change (other than any change by way of imposition of or increase in reserve requirements included in the calculation of LIBOR) in or in the interpretation of any requirement of law, or (b) the compliance with any guideline or request from any central bank or other governmental authority (whether or not having the force of law), there shall be any increase in the cost to the Lender of agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining any loan at the LIBOR Rate, Borrower shall be liable for, and shall from time to time, upon demand therefor by the Lender, pay to the Lender such additional amounts as are sufficient to compensate the Lender for such increased costs.

Illegality.  If the Lender shall determine that the introduction of any law (statutory or common), treaty, rule, regulation, guideline or determination of an arbitrator or of a governmental authority or in the interpretation or administration thereof, has made it unlawful, or that any central bank or other governmental authority has asserted that it is unlawful for the Lender to make a loan at the LIBOR Rate then, on notice thereof by the Lender to Borrower, the Lender may suspend maintaining this loan at the LIBOR Rate until the Lender shall have notified Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination shall no longer exist and the Lender may convert the Applicable Interest Rate from the LIBOR Rate to the Base Rate.

Conversion.  The Lender may, in its sole discretion, convert the Applicable Interest Rate from the LIBOR Rate to the Base Rate upon the occurrence of an Event of Default.  The Applicable Rate shall automatically convert from the LIBOR Rate to the Base Rate on the date Borrower commences, or has commenced against it, any proceeding or request for relief under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws now or hereafter in effect in the United States of America or any state or territory thereof or any foreign jurisdiction or any formal or informal proceeding for the dissolution or liquidation of, settlement of claims against or winding up of affairs of Borrower.

Default Rate.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Note, the default rate of interest that the Lender may charge under the Note shall be at a rate per annum of twenty-four percent (24%).  Nothing herein shall be construed to be a waiver by the Lender to have any Loan accrue interest at the default rate or other rights of the Lender set forth in this Note.

Prepayment.  If Borrower prepays any principal amount (in whole or in part) when the Applicable Rate is the LIBOR Rate on or as of any day other than the last day of the selected interest period (other than regular installments of principal as set forth in the Note), or there is a conversion from the LIBOR Rate to the Base Rate, pursuant to the terms of this Note, on or as of any day other than the last day of the selected interest period, then Borrower shall be liable for and shall pay the Lender, on demand, an amount (the “Breakage Fee”) equal the actual amount of the liabilities, expenses, costs and/or funding losses that are a direct or indirect result of such prepayment, conversion or other condition described herein, including, without limitation, any liability, expense, cost (including administrative cost) or loss derived from liquidating or employing deposits acquired to fund or maintain the applicable loan through the end of the applicable interest period.  The Lender’s calculation of any Breakage Fee shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding upon Borrower.  Borrower acknowledges and understands that, upon demand for payment or acceleration of maturity (as applicable) of all indebtedness under this Note, any tender of payment made thereafter shall be deemed a voluntary prepayment and, to the extent permitted by law, Borrower shall pay to the Lender the appropriate Breakage Fee in connection therewith.

ROBERT MASTERS (the "Deponent"), as Senior Vice President of CANARSIE PLAZA LLC (the "Borrower"), being duly sworn, deposes and says:

1.           The Borrower is the holder of a fee interest in the premises commonly known as 8925 Foster Avenue, 8901 Avenue D, 8915 Avenue D, 870 Remsen Avenue, 856 Remsen Avenue, 8707 Foster Avenue, and 8709 Foster Avenue, Canarsie, New York 11236 (the "Premises"), more particularly described in a mortgage of even date herewith and the undersigned is fully familiar with the facts set forth herein.

2.           A Mortgage (Third Mortgage) (the "Third Mortgage") made between the Borrower and MANUFACTURERS AND TRADERS TRUST COMPANY ("M&T"), as the administrative agent for itself and other lenders (referred to collectively with M&T as the "Bank") dated as of the date hereof in the principal sum of $7,000,000.00 has been offered for recording simultaneously herewith and a mortgage tax of $196,000.00 due upon the recording of the Third Mortgage presented for recording, simultaneously herewith are being paid at this time

 

 

3.           As collateral security for the Mortgage, Borrower has this day also executed and delivered a General Assignment of Rents (the "Assignment") encumbering the Premises, which Assignment is also being offered herewith for recording.  The Assignment is additional security for the Third Mortgage only, and secures no other or additional indebtedness of the Borrower to the Bank.

4.           Since the Assignment does not create or secure a new or further indebtedness beyond the indebtedness which is already secured, or which under any contingency may be secured by the foregoing Third Mortgage, your deponent respectfully requests exemption from further tax under Section 255 Article II of the Tax Law.
