(c) The execution, delivery and effectiveness of this Amendment shall be without prejudice to Lenders rights at any time in the future, to exercise any and all rights conferred upon Lender by any of the Loan Documents in accordance with their original terms or as the same are hereby amended, and shall not, except as expressly provided herein, operate as a waiver of any right, power or remedy of the Lender under any of the Loan Documents, nor constitute a waiver or consent of any other provision of any of the Loan Documents or for any purpose except as expressly set forth herein.
(d) This Amendment is a Loan Document.
19. Representations, Warranties, Certifications and Covenants in the Contribution Agreement . As of the Effective Date, Borrower and Guarantor hereby represent and warrant to and for the benefit of Lender that the representations, warranties, certifications and covenants contained in the Contribution Agreement, including without limitation, the representations and warranties contained in Articles II and III of the Contribution Agreement, are true, accurate and complete and are incorporated herein by reference knowing that Lender will rely thereon.
20. Representations, Warranties and Covenants . Each Original Borrower, each Original Guarantor and each Guarantor (collectively, the Parties ) do hereby make the following representations, warranties and covenants to Lender, it being hereby acknowledged by each of the Parties that Lender is relying upon such representations, warranties and covenants as a material inducement to Lenders execution hereof:
(a) Each of the Parties has the power and authority to enter into this Amendment and all other agreements contemplated hereby, and to do all acts and things as are required or contemplated hereunder to be done, observed and performed by each of the Parties;
(b) The execution and delivery of this Amendment and all other agreements to be executed by each of the Parties and contemplated hereby, and each of the Parties performance hereunder and thereunder, do not and will not require the consent or approval of any governmental authority, nor be in contravention of or in conflict with any certificate of incorporation, certificate of organization, bylaws, limited liability company agreement or other formation documents, or the provisions of any statute, or any judgment, order, or indenture, instrument, agreement, or undertaking, to which any of the Parties is a party or by which any of the Parties or their respective assets or properties are or may become bound;
(c) Each of the Parties is, as of the date hereof, and shall be as of the Effective Date, in full compliance with all covenants, agreements and obligations of each of the Parties as set forth in the Loan Agreement, the Notes, the Security Documents, this Amendment and the other Loan Documents, and no Event of Default exists thereunder or hereunder, and no event or circumstance exists which with the passage of time or the giving of notice, or both, would constitute an Event of Default thereunder;
(d) Lender has duly performed all of its obligations under the Loan Agreement, this Amendment and the other Loan Documents;
(e) This Amendment constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligations of each of the Parties enforceable in accordance with its terms, and the execution and delivery of this Amendment does not contravene, result in a breach of, or constitute a default under any deed of trust, loan agreement, indenture or other contract or agreement to which any of the Parties is bound, nor would such execution and delivery constitute such a default with the passage of time or the giving of notice, or both;
(f) Each of the Parties has thoroughly read and reviewed the terms and provisions of this Amendment and is familiar with same, and each of the Parties has entered into this Amendment voluntarily, without duress or undue influence of any kind, and with the advice and representation of legal counsel which it has selected.
21. Legal Fees and Expenses . The Parties shall pay, or cause to be paid, upon request all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Lender or incident to the preparation, execution and recordation, as required, of all agreements, instruments and other documents, in connection with the consummation of the transaction contemplated hereby, including, but not limited to, recording fees, title insurance policy or endorsement premiums or other charges of the Title Company, if any, and reasonable fees and expenses of legal counsel to Lender.
22. Waivers . Any waiver herein by Lender shall not waive, affect or diminish any right of the Lender to hereafter demand strict compliance and performance by any of the Parties of all of the terms, conditions and covenants of the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents upon each and every subsequent date when compliance is required. Any waiver herein by Lender shall not suspend, waive or affect any Event of Default by any of the Parties under the Loan Agreement, the Notes, the Security Documents, or the other Loan Documents, whether such other Event of Default is prior or subsequent thereto. Any waiver herein by Lender is made in reliance upon, and is strictly subject to, the full performance by each of the Parties of the terms and conditions of this Amendment.
23. Default and Remedies . Any default by any of the Parties in the performance of their respective obligations herein contained or any inaccuracy in the representations and warranties made by any of the Parties shall constitute a Default or an Event of Default under the terms of the Loan Agreement, the Notes, the Security Documents and the other Loan Documents and shall entitle Lender to exercise all of its rights and remedies set forth in the Loan Agreement, the Notes, the Security Documents and the other Loan Documents.
24. Relationship of Parties . The relationship between Borrower and Lender is limited to that of debtor and creditor. The provisions in any Loan Documents for compliance with financial covenants and delivery of financial statements are intended solely for the benefit of Lender to protect its interests as Lender in assuring payments of interest, and repayment of principal, and nothing contained in this Amendment, the Loan Agreement or the other Loan Documents, shall be construed as (i) permitting or obligating Lender to act as a financial or business advisor or consultant to Borrower, (ii) permitting or obligating Lender to control Borrower or conduct Borrowers operations, (iii) creating any fiduciary obligation on the part of Lender to Borrower, or (iv) creating any partnership, tenancy-in-common, joint tenancy, joint venture, co-ownership, agency or other relationship between the parties other than as debtor and creditor.
Lender shall not in any way be responsible or liable for the debts, losses, obligations or duties of Borrower with respect to the Collateral or otherwise. All obligations to pay real property or other taxes, assessments, insurance premiums and all other fees and charges arising from the ownership, operation, use and occupancy of the Collateral and to perform obligations under all agreements and contracts relating to the Collateral shall be the sole responsibility of Borrower.
25. No Defenses, Counterclaims or Rights of Offset, Release of Lender . As a material inducement to Lender to enter into this Amendment, each of the Parties hereby acknowledges, admits, and agrees that, as of the date hereof, Lender has satisfied and performed its covenants and obligations under each of the Loan Documents, and that no action or failure to act by or on behalf of Lender has or will give rise to any cause of action or other claim against Lender for breach of any of the Loan Documents or otherwise, and there exist no rights of offset, defense, counterclaim, claim, or objection in favor of any or all of them against Lender with respect to the Loans, the Collateral, and the Notes or any of the other Loan Documents, or alternatively, that any and all such right of offset, defense, counterclaim, claim, or objection which any of the Parties may have or claim, of any nature whatsoever, whether known or unknown, is hereby expressly and irrevocably waived and released. With respect to that period from the beginning of time until the date of full execution and delivery hereof, each of the Parties hereby releases and forever discharges Lender, its directors, officers, employees, administrators, subsidiaries, affiliates, attorneys, agents, successors, and assigns from any and all rights, claims, demands, actions, causes of action, suits, proceedings, agreements, contracts, judgments, damages, debts, costs, expenses, promises, agreements, duties, liabilities, or obligations, whether in law or in equity, known or unknown, choate or inchoate, which any of the Parties has had, now has, or hereafter may have, arising under or in any manner relating to, whether directly or indirectly, the Loans, the Collateral and the Notes or any of the other Loan Documents, or any transactions contemplated by any this Amendment, but only with respect to that period from the beginning of time until the date of full execution and delivery hereof. The foregoing release is intended to be, and is, a full, complete and general release in favor of Lender with respect to all claims, demands, actions, causes of action and other matters described therein, including specifically, without limitation, any claims, demands or causes of action based upon allegations of breach of fiduciary duty, breach of any alleged duty of fair dealing in good faith, economic coercion, usury, or any other theory, cause of action, occurrence, matter or thing which might result in liability upon Lender arising or occurring on or before the date hereof. Each of the Parties understands and agrees that the foregoing general release is in consideration for the agreements of Lender contained herein and that the Parties will receive no further consideration for such release.
26. Ratification; Continued Force and Effect . This Amendment is only a modification of the Loan Agreement and other Loan Documents and is not intended to, and shall not be construed to, effect a novation of the Loan Agreement or other Loan Documents, and, except as expressly set forth herein, all of the representations, covenants, terms and conditions of the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents (which are incorporated herein) and the collateral security provided thereby, are not being modified, amended, cancelled, terminated, released, satisfied, superseded or otherwise invalidated hereby in any manner and shall remain in full force and effect. In the event of any conflict between the terms of this Amendment and the terms of any of the Loan Documents, the terms of this Amendment shall control.
Each of the Parties hereby ratifies and confirms the Loan Documents as modified hereby, and acknowledges and agrees that the Loan Documents as modified hereby are enforceable against Borrower and against the Collateral described therein in accordance with their respective terms. Borrower acknowledges and agrees that the Collateral shall remain in all respects subject to the liens, charges and encumbrances of the Mortgages and the other Loan Documents and the conveyances of title effected thereby, and nothing herein contained, and nothing done pursuant hereto or in connection herewith shall affect or be construed to affect the liens, charges or encumbrances or conveyances effected thereby or the priority thereof over other liens, charges, encumbrances or conveyances, or to release or affect the liability of any party or parties whomsoever may now, or hereafter be, liable on account of the Obligations.
27. Headings . The section headings hereof are inserted for convenience of reference only and shall in no way alter, amend, define or be used in the construction or interpretation of the text of such section.
28. Construction . Whenever the context hereof so requires, reference to the singular shall include the plural and likewise, the plural shall include the singular; words denoting gender shall be construed to mean the masculine, feminine or neuter, as appropriate; and specific enumeration shall not exclude the general, but shall be construed as cumulative of the general recitation.
29. Severability . If any clause or provision of this Amendment is or should ever be held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable under any present or future law applicable to the terms hereof, then and in that event, it is the intention of the parties hereto that the remainder of this Amendment shall not be affected thereby, and that in lieu of each such clause or provision of this Amendment that is illegal, invalid or unenforceable, such clause or provision shall be judicially construed and interpreted to be as similar in substance and content to such illegal, invalid or unenforceable clause or provision, as the context thereof would reasonably suggest, so as to thereafter be legal, valid and enforceable.
30. ENTIRE AGREEMENT . THIS AMENDMENT EMBODIES THE FINAL, ENTIRE AGREEMENT AMONG THE PARTIES HERETO AND SUPERSEDES ANY AND ALL PRIOR COMMITMENTS, AGREEMENTS, REPRESENTATIONS, AND UNDERSTANDINGS, WHETHER WRITTEN OR ORAL, RELATING TO THE SUBJECT MATTER HEREOF AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED OR VARIED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS, OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OR DISCUSSIONS OF THE PARTIES HERETO. THERE ARE NO ORAL AGREEMENTS AMONG THE PARTIES HERETO. THE PROVISIONS OF THIS AMENDMENT MAY BE AMENDED OR WAIVED ONLY BY AN INSTRUMENT IN WRITING SIGNED BY THE RESPECTIVE PARTIES TO SUCH DOCUMENTS.
31. Governing Law . THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK AND THE FEDERAL LAWS OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA IN FORCE THEREIN, EXCLUDING CHOICE-OF-LAW PRINCIPLES OF THE LAW OF SUCH STATE THAT WOULD REQUIRE THE APPLICATION OF THE LAWS OF A JURISDICTION OTHER THAN SUCH JURISDICTION, EXCEPT THAT THE NOTES SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAW OF THE STATE SET FORTH THEREIN, WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICTS OF LAW, AND THE MORTGAGE AND OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS RECORDED OR AFFECTING LAND IN RESPECT OF EACH LOAN SHALL BE GOVERNED BY THE LAW OF THE STATE WHERE SUCH LOAN DOCUMENTS ARE RECORDED OR SUCH LAND IS LOCATED, WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICTS OF LAWS.
32. Miscellaneous .
(a) All representations and certifications made in this Amendment are hereby also made as of the date of execution and delivery by all parties and acceptance by Lender of this Amendment.
(b) From time to time, Borrower and Guarantor shall execute or procure and deliver to Lender such other and further documents and instruments evidencing, securing or pertaining to the Loans or the Loan Documents as shall be reasonably requested by Lender so as to evidence or effect the terms and provisions hereof.
(c) This Amendment may be executed in any number of identical counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, and all of which shall collectively constitute a single agreement, fully binding upon and enforceable against the parties hereto.
(d) This Amendment shall be binding upon the Parties, and the successors and assigns of the Parties, and shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Lender, its successors and assigns, including any subsequent holder of the Notes.
(e) Whenever more than one of Original Borrower, Guarantor or Original Guarantor shall have the same obligations and liabilities hereunder, the obligations of each such party shall be joint and several with the other such parties and if more than one person or entity is included in the definition of Borrower, Original Borrower, Guarantor, Original Guarantor or Released Borrower, the obligations and liabilities of each such person or entity shall be joint and several with the other persons or entities included in such definition, as well as all other persons or entities with such obligations and liabilities hereunder.

7.19 Usury Laws. This Agreement and the Note are subject to the express condition that at no time shall Borrower be obligated or required to pay interest on the principal balance due under the Note at a rate which could subject the holder of the Note to either civil or criminal liability as a result of being in excess of the maximum interest rate which Borrower is permitted by law to contract or agree to pay. If by the terms of this Agreement or the Note, Borrower is at any time required or obligated to pay interest on the principal balance due under the Note at a rate in excess of such maximum rate, the rate of interest under the Note shall be deemed to be immediately reduced to such maximum rate and the interest payable shall be computed at such maximum rate and all prior interest payments in excess of such maximum rate shall be applied and shall be deemed to have been payments in reduction of the principal balance of the Note and the principal balance of the Note shall be reduced by such amount in the inverse order of maturity.

1 . Payment of Principal and Interest . Principal and interest shall be paid as follows:
(a) If the loan proceeds are not disbursed on the first day of a month, then interest only at the Applicable Interest Rate from and including the date of disbursement of the loan proceeds to the first day of the month following such disbursement shall be due and payable in advance on the date of such disbursement;
(b) Interest only is to be paid in installments as follows: $50,208.38 on the first day of April, 2008 and on the first day of each calendar month thereafter up to and including the first day of March, 2013;
(c) Principal and interest is to be paid in installments as follows: $59,617.63 on the first day of April, 2013, and on the first day of each calendar month thereafter up to and including the first day of February, 2018; and
(d) The outstanding principal balance and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon and all other sums and fees due under this Note shall be due and payable on the first day of March, 2018 (the Maturity Date ).
Interest on the principal balance of this Note shall be calculated on a monthly basis using, as the agreed method of calculation, a three hundred sixty (360) day year consisting of twelve (12) months of thirty (30) days each; provided , however , that interest for a period of less than a full month shall be calculated by multiplying the actual number of days elapsed during such partial month by a daily rate based upon a three hundred sixty-five day year and the interest rate then due under this Note.
The term Applicable Interest Rate as used in this Note shall mean from the date of disbursement of the loan proceeds through and including the Maturity Date, a rate of Six and Seventeen One-Hundredths Percent (6.17%) per annum.
If at any time Payee receives, from Maker or otherwise, any amount applicable to the Debt (hereinafter defined) which is less than all amounts due and payable at such time, Payee may apply that payment to amounts then due and payable in any manner and in any order determined by Payee, in Payees sole discretion. Payee shall, however, be under no obligation to accept any amount less than all amounts then due and payable. Maker agrees that neither Payees acceptance of a payment from Maker in an amount that is less than all amounts then due and payable nor Payees application of such payment shall constitute or be deemed to constitute either a waiver of the unpaid amounts or an accord and satisfaction. This provision shall control notwithstanding any inconsistent direction by Maker or any other obligor hereunder.
This Note is issued by Maker to Payee pursuant to a certain Loan Agreement by and among Maker and John Hancock of even date herewith (the Loan Agreement ) whereby John Hancock has agreed to make three (3) separate loans to Maker in the aggregate principal amount of $105,000,000.00. This Note evidences a portion of one of such loans, which loan is in the aggregate principal amount of $21,765,000.00 (the CT Loan ), as set forth in the Loan Agreement. Reference is hereby made to the Loan Agreement for a full statement of the rights of the holder of, and the nature and extent of the security for, this Note. The whole of the principal sum of this Note, together with all interest accrued and unpaid thereon and all other sums due under this Note, any other mortgage note evidencing any other portion of the CT Loan, and the Loan Agreement and any other instrument now or hereafter evidencing, securing, guaranteeing or executed in connection with the Loan Agreement or the indebtedness evidenced hereby (the Loan Documents ) (all such sums hereinafter collectively referred to as the Debt ) shall without notice become immediately due and payable at the option of Payee on the happening of an Event of Default as the same is defined in the Loan Agreement (hereinafter defined). All of the terms, covenants and conditions contained in the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents are hereby made part of this Note to the same extent and with the same force as if they were fully set forth herein. In the event of any conflict between the terms of the Note and the terms of the Loan Agreement, the Mortgages and other security instruments, the terms of this Note shall govern, except as specifically provided herein or in the Loan Agreement.
2. Prepayment . Except as provided below, Maker may not prepay the loan evidenced by this Note in whole or in part.
On or after the end of the fifth (5 th ) Loan Year (as hereinafter defined), on any scheduled payment date and subject to giving Payee not less than thirty (30) nor more than ninety (90) days prior written notice specifying the scheduled payment date on which prepayment is to be made (the Prepayment Date ), Maker may prepay the entire principal amount together with any and all accrued interest and other sums due under the Loan Documents, and subject to payment of a prepayment premium equal to the greater of:
(a) the positive amount, if any, equal to (i) the sum of the present values of all scheduled payments due under the Note from the Prepayment Date to and including the Maturity Date, minus (ii) the principal balance of the Note immediately prior to such prepayment; or
(b) 1.0% of the principal balance of the Note immediately prior to such prepayment.
All present values shall be calculated as of the Prepayment Date, using a discount rate, compounded monthly, equal to the yield rate plus twenty-five (25) basis points, converted to its monthly equivalent, of the United States Treasury Security having the closest maturity date to the Maturity Date of the Note as established in the Wall Street Journal or other business publication of general circulation five (5) business days before the Prepayment Date.
In the event that the yield rate on publicly traded United States Treasury Securities is not obtainable, then the nearest equivalent issue or index shall be selected, at Payees reasonable determination, and used to calculate the prepayment premium.
The loan evidenced by this Note will be open to prepayment without premium on any scheduled payment date during the last ninety (90) days of the term of this Note.
If any notice of prepayment is given, the principal balance of the loan evidenced by this Note and the other sums required pursuant to this Section 2 shall be due and payable on the Prepayment Date, unless Maker provides written notice to Payee that it is revoking said prepayment notice no later than five (5) business days prior to the Prepayment Date.
Provided no default exists under the Loan Documents, the above premium shall not be applicable to a prepayment resulting from Payees election to require insurance loss proceeds or condemnation awards to be applied to a payment of principal.
No partial prepayment shall be allowed.
The Loan Year is defined as any twelve month period commencing with the date on which the first monthly installment is due or any anniversary thereof.
3. Acceleration/Default . Maker acknowledges that the loan evidenced by this Note was made on the basis and assumption that Payee would receive the payments of principal and interest set forth herein for the full term of this Note. Therefore, whenever the Maturity Date of the loan evidenced by this Note has been accelerated by reason of an Event of Default under the Loan Documents, which Event of Default occurs prior to the time period, if any, in which prepayment is allowed and prior to the date on which the full amount of the balance of principal and interest then remaining unpaid shall be due, including an acceleration by reason of sale, conveyance, further encumbrance or other Event of Default (which acceleration shall be at Payees sole option), there shall be due, in addition to the outstanding principal balance, accrued interest and other sums due under the Loan Documents, a premium equal to the greater of:
(a) The sum obtained by adding:
(i) the positive amount, if any, equal to (aa) the sum of the present values of all scheduled payments due under this Note from the date of said payment to and including the Maturity Date of the Note, minus (bb) the then outstanding principal balance of the Note, and
(ii) 1.0 % of the then outstanding principal balance of the Note; or
(b) An amount equal to 10.0 % of the then outstanding principal balance of the Note.
All present values shall be calculated as of the date of said payment, using a discount rate, compounded monthly, equal to the yield rate, converted to its monthly equivalent, of the United States Treasury Security having the closest maturity date to the Maturity Date of the Note as established in the Wall Street Journal or other business publication of general circulation five (5) business days before the date of said payment. In the event that the yield rate on publicly traded United States Treasury Securities is not obtainable, then the nearest equivalent issue or index shall be selected, at Payees reasonable determination, and used to calculate the prepayment premium.
If an Event of Default occurs on or after the date on which prepayment is permitted, then in lieu of the above premium, payment of a premium calculated in the manner set forth in Section 2 hereof shall be required.
A tender of the amount necessary to satisfy the entire indebtedness, paid at any time following such Event of Default or acceleration, including at a foreclosure sale or during any subsequent redemption period, if any, shall be deemed a voluntary prepayment, and, at Payees option, such payment shall include a premium as described above.
4. Default Rate . Maker does hereby agree that upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and while any Event of Default exists, including, without limitation, the failure of Maker to pay the Debt in full on the Maturity Date, Payee shall be entitled to receive and Maker shall pay interest on the entire unpaid principal sum, effective from the date of Makers initial default with respect to such Event of Default without allowance for any applicable notice and/or grace period, at a rate (the Default Rate ) equal to seven percent (7%) above the Applicable Interest Rate, but in no event to exceed the highest rate permitted under the laws of the jurisdiction where the property secured by the Mortgage is situated. Notwithstanding the provisions of any statute or regulation to the contrary, the Default Rate shall apply to all sums evidenced hereby upon, during and after an Event of Default as provided herein, and also after entry of a judgment or judgments against Maker (whether in a mortgage foreclosure action or otherwise), and whether or not any event described in Paragraph 3.12 of the Loan Agreement hereof has occurred. This charge shall be added to the Debt, and shall be deemed secured by the Mortgage.
This clause, however, shall not be construed as an agreement or privilege to extend the date of the payment of the Debt, nor as a waiver of any other right or remedy available to Payee by reason of the occurrence of any Event of Default.
5. Late Charge . If any monthly principal and interest payment payable under this Note is not paid in full within five (5) days of the date on which it is due, Maker shall pay to Payee an amount equal to the lesser of five percent (5%) of such unpaid sum or the maximum amount permitted by applicable law to defray the expenses incurred by Payee in handling and processing such delinquent payment and to compensate Payee for the loss of the use of such delinquent payment and such amount shall be secured by the Loan Documents.
6. Security for Loan . This Note is secured by, among other things, the Mortgage and certain other Loan Documents as set forth in the Loan Agreement. The term Mortgage as used in this Note shall mean that certain Open-End Mortgage Deed, Assignment of Leases and Rents, Security Agreement and Fixture Filing dated the date hereof in the principal sum of the CT Loan given by Maker for the use and benefit of Payee covering certain premises located at 269 South Lambert Road, 12 Cascade Boulevard, 15 and 25 Executive Boulevard and 22 Marsh Hill Road in Orange, Connecticut, 950 Bridgeport Avenue in Milford, Connecticut and 470 Bridgeport Avenue in Shelton, Connecticut.
7. Compliance with Law . It is expressly stipulated and agreed to be the intent of Maker and Payee at all times to comply with applicable state law or applicable United States federal law (to the extent that it permits Payee to contract for, charge, take, reserve or receive a greater amount of interest than under state law) and that this paragraph shall control every other covenant and agreement in this Note, the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents. If the applicable law (state or federal) is ever judicially interpreted so as to render usurious any amount called for under this Note or any of the other Loan Documents, or contracted for, charged, taken, reserved or received with respect to the Debt, or if Payees exercise of the option to accelerate the Maturity Date, or if any prepayment by Maker results in Makers having paid any interest in excess of that permitted by applicable law, then it is Payees express intent that all excess amounts theretofore collected by Payee shall be credited on the principal balance of this Note and all other Debt and the provisions of this Note, and the other Loan Documents immediately be deemed reformed and the amounts thereafter collectible hereunder and thereunder reduced, without the necessity of the execution of any new documents, so as to comply with the applicable law, but so as to permit the recovery of the fullest amount otherwise called for hereunder or thereunder. All sums paid or agreed to be paid to Payee for the use or forbearance of the Debt shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread throughout the full stated term of the Debt until payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of the Debt does not exceed the maximum lawful rate from time to time in effect and applicable to the Debt for so long as the Debt is outstanding. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or in any of the other Loan Documents, it is not the intention of Payee to accelerate the maturity of any interest that has not accrued at the time of such acceleration or to collect unearned interest at the time of such acceleration.
8. Amendments . This Note may not be modified, amended, waived, extended, changed, discharged or terminated orally or by any act or failure to act on the part of Maker or Payee, but only by an agreement in writing signed by the party against whom enforcement of any modification, amendment, waiver, extension, change, discharge or termination is sought.
9. Joint and Several Liability . If Maker consists of more than one person or party, the obligations and liabilities of each such person or party shall be joint and several.
10. Construction . Whenever used, the singular number shall include the plural, the plural the singular, and the words Payee and Maker shall include their respective successors, assigns, heirs, executors and administrators.
11. Waivers . Maker and all others who may become liable for the payment of all or any part of the Debt do hereby severally waive presentment and demand for payment, notice of dishonor, protest, notice of protest and non-payment and notice of intent to accelerate the maturity hereof (and of such acceleration). No release of any security for the Debt or extension of time for payment of this Note or any installment hereof and no alteration, amendment or waiver of any provision of this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or any other Loan Documents made by agreement between Payee and any other person or party shall release, modify, amend, waive, extend, change, discharge, terminate or affect the liability of Maker and any other who may become liable for the payment of all or any part of the Debt, under this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or any other Loan Documents.
12. Authority . Maker (and the undersigned representative of Maker, if any) represents that Maker has full power, authority and legal right to execute, deliver and perform its obligations pursuant to this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents and that this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents constitute valid and binding obligations of Maker.
13. Time . Time is of the essence of this Note.
14. Replacement Note . In the event of the loss, theft or destruction of this Note, upon Makers receipt of a reasonably satisfactory indemnification agreement executed in favor of Maker by Payee or in the event of the mutilation of this Note, upon the surrender of the mutilated Note by Payee to Maker, Maker shall execute and deliver to Payee a new mortgage note in form and content identical to this Note in lieu of the lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note.
15. Notice . All notices required to be given pursuant hereto shall be given in the manner specified in the Loan Agreement directed to the parties at their respective addresses as provided therein.
16. Costs and Expenses . Maker shall pay all expenses and costs, including fees and out-of-pocket expenses of attorneys and expert witnesses and costs of investigation incurred by Payee as a result of any Event of Default or in connection with efforts to collect any amount due under this Note or to enforce the provisions of any of the Loan Documents, including those incurred in post-judgment collection efforts and in any bankruptcy proceeding (including any action for relief from the automatic stay of any bankruptcy proceeding) or judicial or non-judicial foreclosure proceeding.
17. Forbearance . Any forbearance by Payee in exercising any right or remedy under this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or any other Loan Document or otherwise afforded by applicable law shall not be a waiver of or preclude the exercise of that or any other right or remedy. The acceptance by Payee of any payment after the due date of such payment or in an amount which is less than the required payment shall not be a waiver of Payees right to require prompt payment when due of all other payments or to exercise any right or remedy with respect to any failure to make prompt payment. Enforcement by Payee of any security for Makers obligations under this Note shall not constitute an election by Payee of remedies so as to preclude the exercise of any other right or remedy available to Payee.

1. Payment of Principal and Interest . Principal and interest shall be paid as follows:
(a) If the loan proceeds are not disbursed on the first day of a month, then interest only at the Applicable Interest Rate from and including the date of disbursement of the loan proceeds to the first day of the month following such disbursement shall be due and payable in advance on the date of such disbursement;
(b) Interest only is to be paid in installments as follows: $51,200.00 on the first day of April, 2008 and on the first day of each calendar month thereafter up to and including the first day of February, 2011; and
(c) The outstanding principal balance and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon and all other sums and fees due under this Note shall be due and payable on the first day of March, 2011 (the Maturity Date ).
Interest on the principal balance of this Note shall be calculated on a monthly basis using, as the agreed method of calculation, a three hundred sixty (360) day year consisting of twelve (12) months of thirty (30) days each; provided , however , that interest for a period of less than a full month shall be calculated by multiplying the actual number of days elapsed
during such partial month by a daily rate based upon a three hundred sixty-five day year and the interest rate then due under this Note.
The term Applicable Interest Rate as used in this Note shall mean from the date of disbursement of the loan proceeds through and including the Maturity Date, a rate of Five and Twelve One-Hundredths Percent (5.12%) per annum.
If at any time Payee receives, from Maker or otherwise, any amount applicable to the Debt (hereinafter defined) which is less than all amounts due and payable at such time, Payee may apply that payment to amounts then due and payable in any manner and in any order determined by Payee, in Payees sole discretion. Payee shall, however, be under no obligation to accept any amount less than all amounts then due and payable. Maker agrees that neither Payees acceptance of a payment from Maker in an amount that is less than all amounts then due and payable nor Payees application of such payment shall constitute or be deemed to constitute either a waiver of the unpaid amounts or an accord and satisfaction. This provision shall control notwithstanding any inconsistent direction by Maker or any other obligor hereunder.
This Note is issued by Maker to Payee pursuant to a certain Loan Agreement by and among Maker and John Hancock of even date herewith (the Loan Agreement ) whereby John Hancock has agreed to make three (3) separate loans to Maker in the aggregate principal amount of $105,000,000.00. This Note evidences a portion of one of such loans, which loan is in the aggregate principal amount of $21,765,000.00 (the CT Loan ), as set forth in the Loan Agreement. Reference is hereby made to the Loan Agreement for a full statement of the rights of the holder of, and the nature and extent of the security for, this Note. The whole of the principal sum of this Note, together with all interest accrued and unpaid thereon and all other sums due under this Note, any other mortgage note evidencing any other portion of the CT Loan, and the Loan Agreement and any other instrument now or hereafter evidencing, securing, guaranteeing or executed in connection with the Loan Agreement or the indebtedness evidenced hereby (the Loan Documents ) (all such sums hereinafter collectively referred to as the Debt ) shall without notice become immediately due and payable at the option of Payee on the happening of an Event of Default as the same is defined in the Loan Agreement (hereinafter defined). All of the terms, covenants and conditions contained in the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents are hereby made part of this Note to the same extent and with the same force as if they were fully set forth herein. In the event of any conflict between the terms of the Note and the terms of the Loan Agreement, the Mortgages and other security instruments, the terms of this Note shall govern, except as specifically provided herein or in the Loan Agreement.
2. Prepayment . Except as provided below, Maker may not prepay the loan evidenced by this Note in whole or in part.
On or after the end of the first 1.5 Loan Years (as hereinafter defined), on any scheduled payment date and subject to giving Payee not less than thirty (30) nor more than ninety (90) days prior written notice specifying the scheduled payment date on which prepayment is to be made (the Prepayment Date ). Maker may prepay the entire principal amount together with any and all accrued interest and other sums due under the Loan Documents, and subject to payment of a prepayment premium equal to the greater of:
(a) the positive amount, if any, equal to (i) the sum of the present values of all scheduled payments due under the Note from the Prepayment Date to and including the Maturity Date, minus (ii) the principal balance of the Note immediately prior to such prepayment; or
(b) 1.0% of the principal balance of the Note immediately prior to such prepayment.
All present values shall be calculated as of the Prepayment Date, using a discount rate, compounded monthly, equal to the yield rate plus twenty-five (25) basis points, converted to its monthly equivalent, of the United States Treasury Security having the closest maturity date to the Maturity Date of the Note as established in the Wall Street Journal or other business publication of general circulation five (5) business days before the Prepayment Date.
In the event that the yield rate on publicly traded United States Treasury Securities is not obtainable, then the nearest equivalent issue or index shall be selected, at Payees reasonable determination, and used to calculate the prepayment premium.
The loan evidenced by this Note will be open to prepayment without premium on any scheduled payment date during the last ninety (90) days of the term of this Note.
If any notice of prepayment is given, the principal balance of the loan evidenced by this Note and the other sums required pursuant to this Section 2 shall be due and payable on the Prepayment Date, unless Maker provides written notice to Payee that it is revoking said prepayment notice no later than five (5) business days prior to the Prepayment Date.
Provided no default exists under the Loan Documents, the above premium shall not be applicable to a prepayment resulting from Payees election to require insurance loss proceeds or condemnation awards to be applied to a payment of principal.
No partial prepayment shall be allowed.
The Loan Year is defined as any twelve month period commencing with the date on which the first monthly installment is due or any anniversary thereof.
3. Acceleration/Default . Maker acknowledges that the loan evidenced by this Note was made on the basis and assumption that Payee would receive the payments of principal and interest set forth herein for the full term of this Note. Therefore, whenever the Maturity Date of the loan evidenced by this Note has been accelerated by reason of an Event of Default under the Loan Documents, which Event of Default occurs prior to the time period, if any, in which prepayment is allowed and prior to the date on which the full amount of the balance of principal and interest then remaining unpaid shall be due, including an acceleration by reason of sale, conveyance, further encumbrance or other Event of Default (which acceleration shall be at Payees sole option), there shall be due, in addition to the outstanding principal balance, accrued interest and other sums due under the Loan Documents, a premium equal to the greater of:
(a) The sum obtained by adding:
(i) the positive amount, if any, equal to (aa) the sum of the present values of all scheduled payments due under this Note from the date of said payment to and including the Maturity Date of the Note, minus (bb) the then outstanding principal balance of the Note, and
(ii) 1.0 % of the then outstanding principal balance of the Note; or
(b) An amount equal to 10.0 % of the then outstanding principal balance of the Note.
All present values shall be calculated as of the date of said payment, using a discount rate, compounded monthly, equal to the yield rate, converted to its monthly equivalent, of the United States Treasury Security having the closest maturity date to the Maturity Date of the Note as established in the Wall Street Journal or other business publication of general circulation five (5) business days before the date of said payment. In the event that the yield rate on publicly traded United States Treasury Securities is not obtainable, then the nearest equivalent issue or index shall be selected, at Payees reasonable determination, and used to calculate the prepayment premium.
If an Event of Default occurs on or after the date on which prepayment is permitted, then in lieu of the above premium, payment of a premium calculated in the manner set forth in Section 2 hereof shall be required.
A tender of the amount necessary to satisfy the entire indebtedness, paid at any time following such Event of Default or acceleration, including at a foreclosure sale or during any subsequent redemption period, if any, shall be deemed a voluntary prepayment, and, at Payees option, such payment shall include a premium as described above.
4. Default Rate . Maker does hereby agree that upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and while any Event of Default exists, including, without limitation, the failure of Maker to pay the Debt in full on the Maturity Date, Payee shall be entitled to receive and Maker shall pay interest on the entire unpaid principal sum, effective from the date of Makers initial default with respect to such Event of Default without allowance for any applicable notice and/or grace period, at a rate (the Default Rate ) equal to seven percent (7%) above the Applicable Interest Rate, but in no event to exceed the highest rate permitted under the laws of the jurisdiction where the property secured by the Mortgage is situated. Notwithstanding the provisions of any statute or regulation to the contrary, the Default Rate shall apply to all sums evidenced hereby upon, during and after an Event of Default as provided herein, and also after entry of a judgment or judgments against Maker (whether in a mortgage foreclosure action or otherwise), and whether or not any event described in Paragraph 3.12 of the Loan Agreement hereof has occurred. This charge shall be added to the Debt, and shall be deemed secured by the Mortgage. This clause, however, shall not be construed as an agreement or privilege to extend the date of the payment of the Debt, nor as a waiver of any other right or remedy available to Payee by reason of the occurrence of any Event of Default.
5. Late Charge . If any monthly principal and interest payment payable under this Note is not paid in full within five (5) days of the date on which it is due, Maker shall pay to Payee an amount equal to the lesser of five percent (5%) of such unpaid sum or the maximum amount permitted by applicable law to defray the expenses incurred by Payee in handling and processing such delinquent payment and to compensate Payee for the loss of the use of such delinquent payment and such amount shall be secured by the Loan Documents.
6. Security for Loan . This Note is secured by, among other things, the Mortgage and certain other Loan Documents as set forth in the Loan Agreement. The term Mortgage as used in this Note shall mean that certain Open-End Mortgage Deed, Assignment of Leases and Rents, Security Agreement and Fixture Filing dated the date hereof in the principal sum of the CT Loan given by Maker for the use and benefit of Payee covering certain premises located at 269 South Lambert Road, 12 Cascade Boulevard, 15 and 25 Executive Boulevard and 22 Marsh Hill Road in Orange, Connecticut, 950 Bridgeport Avenue in Milford, Connecticut and 470 Bridgeport Avenue in Shelton, Connecticut.
7. Compliance with Law . It is expressly stipulated and agreed to be the intent of Maker and Payee at all times to comply with applicable state law or applicable United States federal law (to the extent that it permits Payee to contract for, charge, take, reserve or receive a greater amount of interest than under state law) and that this paragraph shall control every other covenant and agreement in this Note, the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents. If the applicable law (state or federal) is ever judicially interpreted so as to render usurious any amount called for under this Note or any of the other Loan Documents, or contracted for, charged, taken, reserved or received with respect to the Debt, or if Payees exercise of the option to accelerate the Maturity Date, or if any prepayment by Maker results in Makers having paid any interest in excess of that permitted by applicable law, then it is Payees express intent that all excess amounts theretofore collected by Payee shall be credited on the principal balance of this Note and all other Debt and the provisions of this Note, and the other Loan Documents immediately be deemed reformed and the amounts thereafter collectible hereunder and thereunder reduced, without the necessity of the execution of any new documents, so as to comply with the applicable law, but so as to permit the recovery of the fullest amount otherwise called for hereunder or thereunder. All sums paid or agreed to be paid to Payee for the use or forbearance of the Debt shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread throughout the full stated term of the Debt until payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of the Debt does not exceed the maximum lawful rate from time to time in effect and applicable to the Debt for so long as the Debt is outstanding. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or in any of the other Loan Documents, it is not the intention of Payee to accelerate the maturity of any interest that has not accrued at the time of such acceleration or to collect unearned interest at the time of such acceleration.
8. Amendments . This Note may not be modified, amended, waived, extended, changed, discharged or terminated orally or by any act or failure to act on the part of Maker or Payee, but only by an agreement in writing signed by the party against whom enforcement of any modification, amendment, waiver, extension, change, discharge or termination is sought.
9. Joint and Several Liability . If Maker consists of more than one person or party, the obligations and liabilities of each such person or party shall be joint and several.
10. Construction . Whenever used, the singular number shall include the plural, the plural the singular, and the words Payee and Maker shall include their respective successors, assigns, heirs, executors and administrators.
11. Waivers . Maker and all others who may become liable for the payment of all or any part of the Debt do hereby severally waive presentment and demand for payment, notice of dishonor, protest, notice of protest and non-payment and notice of intent to accelerate the maturity hereof (and of such acceleration). No release of any security for the Debt or extension of time for payment of this Note or any installment hereof and no alteration, amendment or waiver of any provision of this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or any other Loan Documents made by agreement between Payee and any other person or party shall release, modify, amend, waive, extend, change, discharge, terminate or affect the liability of Maker and any other who may become liable for the payment of all or any part of the Debt, under this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or any other Loan Documents.
12. Authority . Maker (and the undersigned representative of Maker, if any) represents that Maker has full power, authority and legal right to execute, deliver and perform its obligations pursuant to this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents and that this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents constitute valid and binding obligations of Maker.
13. Time . Time is of the essence of this Note.
14. Replacement Note . In the event of the loss, theft or destruction of this Note, upon Makers receipt of a reasonably satisfactory indemnification agreement executed in favor of Maker by Payee or in the event of the mutilation of this Note, upon the surrender of the mutilated Note by Payee to Maker, Maker shall execute and deliver to Payee a new mortgage note in form and content identical to this Note in lieu of the lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note.
15. Notice . All notices required to be given pursuant hereto shall be given in the manner specified in the Loan Agreement directed to the parties at their respective addresses as provided therein.
16. Costs and Expenses . Maker shall pay all expenses and costs, including fees and out-of-pocket expenses of attorneys and expert witnesses and costs of investigation incurred by Payee as a result of any Event of Default or in connection with efforts to collect any amount due under this Note or to enforce the provisions of any of the Loan Documents, including those incurred in post-judgment collection efforts and in any bankruptcy proceeding (including any action for relief from the automatic stay of any bankruptcy proceeding) or judicial or non-judicial foreclosure proceeding.
17. Forbearance . Any forbearance by Payee in exercising any right or remedy under this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or any other Loan Document or otherwise afforded by applicable law shall not be a waiver of or preclude the exercise of that or any other right or remedy. The acceptance by Payee of any payment after the due date of such payment or in an amount which is less than the required payment shall not be a waiver of Payees right to require prompt payment when due of all other payments or to exercise any right or remedy with respect to any failure to make prompt payment. Enforcement by Payee of any security for Makers obligations under this Note shall not constitute an election by Payee of remedies so as to preclude the exercise of any other right or remedy available to Payee.
18. Section Headings . The Section headings inserted in this Note have been included for convenience only and are not intended and shall not be construed to limit or define in any way the substance of any section contained herein.
19. Limitation on Liability . Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, but subject to the obligations of Section 6.6 of the Loan Agreement, any claim based on or in respect of any liability of Maker under this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or any other Loan Document shall be enforced only against the Mortgaged Property (as such term is defined in the Mortgage) and any other collateral now or hereafter given to secure this Note and not against any other assets, properties or funds of Maker; provided , however , that the liability of Maker for loss, costs or damage arising out of the matters described in the subsections below (collectively, Non-Recourse Carveout Obligations ) shall not be limited solely to the Mortgaged Property and other collateral now or hereafter given to secure this Note but shall include all of the assets, properties and funds of Maker: (i) fraud, misrepresentation and waste; (ii) any rents, issues or profits collected more than one (1) month in advance of their due dates; (iii) any misapplication of rents, issues or profits, security deposits and any other payments from tenants or occupants (including, without limitation, lease termination fees), insurance proceeds, condemnation awards or other sums of a similar nature; (iv) liability under environmental covenants, conditions and indemnities contained in the Loan Agreement, including, without limitation, Section 3.9, the Mortgage and in any separate environmental indemnity agreements; (v) personalty or fixtures removed or allowed to be removed by or on behalf of Maker and not replaced by items of equal or greater value or functionality than the personalty or fixtures so removed; (vi) failure to pay taxes, assessments or ground rents prior to delinquency, or to pay charges for labor, materials or other charges which can create liens on any portion of the Mortgaged Property before such charges become a lien on such Mortgaged Property or any portion thereof and any sums expended by Payee in the performance of or compliance with the obligations of Maker under the Loan Documents, including, without limitation, sums expended to pay taxes or assessments or hazard insurance premiums or bills for utilities or other services or products for the benefit of the Mortgaged Property; (vii) the unauthorized sale, conveyance or transfer of title to the Mortgaged Property or encumbrance of the Mortgaged Property; (viii) the failure of Maker to maintain its status as a single purpose, bankruptcy-remote entity pursuant to its organizational documents and the Loan Documents; (ix) a violation of the provisions of Section 3.7(h) of the Loan Agreement; (x) the filing of any action to partition the Mortgaged Property or any Individual Property (as defined in the Loan Agreement) or the occurrence of any such partition or any sale pursuant to any such action; (xi) the transfer of any TIC (as defined in the Loan Agreement) interests in any of the Mortgaged Property or any Individual Property, or any direct or indirect interests in the holder of any such TIC interest, other than as expressly permitted under Section 3.4(h) of the Loan Agreement; (xii) the termination, cancellation or non-renewal of an Approved Manager (as defined in the Loan Agreement) or any other failure of an Approved Manager to serve as manager of any Permitted TIC (as defined in the Loan Agreement); (xiii) the failure of any Approved Manager to meet the Management Requirements (as defined in the Loan Agreement); and (xiv) attorneys fees, court costs and other expenses incurred by Payee in connection with enforcement of its remedies under the Loan Documents, including, but not limited to, in connection with any bankruptcy proceeding or reorganization brought by or against Maker or any Principal (as defined in the Loan Agreement) of Maker.
Nothing herein shall be deemed (w) to be a waiver of any right which Payee may have under any bankruptcy law of the United States or the state where the Mortgaged Property is located including, but not limited to, Section 506(a), 506(b), 1111(b) or any other provisions of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code to file a claim for the full amount of the indebtedness secured by the Mortgage or to require that all collateral securing the indebtedness secured hereby shall continue to secure all of the indebtedness owing to Payee in accordance with this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents; (x) to impair the validity of the indebtedness secured by the Mortgage; (y) to impair the right of Payee as mortgagee or secured party to commence an action to foreclose any lien or security interest; or (z) to modify, diminish or discharge the liability of any guarantor under any guaranty or of any indemnitor under any indemnity agreement.

1. Payment of Principal and Interest . Principal and interest shall be paid as follows:
(a) If the loan proceeds are not disbursed on the first day of a month, then interest only at the Applicable Interest Rate from and including the date of disbursement of the loan proceeds to the first day of the month following such disbursement shall be due and payable in advance on the date of such disbursement;
(b) Interest only is to be paid in installments as follows: $107,769.33 on the first day of April, 2008 and on the first day of each calendar month thereafter up to and including the first day of March, 2013;
(c) Principal and interest is to be paid in installments as follows: $127,965.75 on the first day of April, 2013, and on the first day of each calendar month thereafter up to and including the first day of February, 2018; and
(d) The outstanding principal balance and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon and all other sums and fees due under this Note shall be due and payable on the first day of March, 2018 (the Maturity Date ).
Interest on the principal balance of this Note shall be calculated on a monthly basis using, as the agreed method of calculation, a three hundred sixty (360) day year consisting of twelve (12) months of thirty (30) days each; provided , however , that interest for a period of less than a full month shall be calculated by multiplying the actual number of days elapsed during such partial month by a daily rate based upon a three hundred sixty-five day year and the interest rate then due under this Note.
The term Applicable Interest Rate as used in this Note shall mean from the date of disbursement of the loan proceeds through and including the Maturity Date, a rate of Six and Seventeen One-Hundredths Percent (6.17%) per annum.
If at any time Payee receives, from Maker or otherwise, any amount applicable to the Debt (hereinafter defined) which is less than all amounts due and payable at such time, Payee may apply that payment to amounts then due and payable in any manner and in any order determined by Payee, in Payees sole discretion. Payee shall, however, be under no obligation to accept any amount less than all amounts then due and payable. Maker agrees that neither Payees acceptance of a payment from Maker in an amount that is less than all amounts then due and payable nor Payees application of such payment shall constitute or be deemed to constitute either a waiver of the unpaid amounts or an accord and satisfaction. This provision shall control notwithstanding any inconsistent direction by Maker or any other obligor hereunder.
This Note is issued by Maker to Payee pursuant to a certain Loan Agreement by and among Maker and John Hancock of even date herewith (the Loan Agreement ) whereby John Hancock has agreed to make three (3) separate loans to Maker in the aggregate principal amount of $105,000,000.00. This Note evidences a portion of one of such loans, which loan is in the aggregate principal amount of $32,585,000.00 (the NJ Loan ), as set forth in the Loan Agreement. Reference is hereby made to the Loan Agreement for a full statement of the rights of the holder of, and the nature and extent of the security for, this Note. The whole of the principal sum of this Note, together with all interest accrued and unpaid thereon and all other sums due under this Note, any other mortgage note evidencing any other portion of the NJ Loan, and the Loan Agreement and any other instrument now or hereafter evidencing, securing, guaranteeing or executed in connection with the Loan Agreement or the indebtedness evidenced hereby (the Loan Documents ) (all such sums hereinafter collectively referred to as the Debt ) shall without notice become immediately due and payable at the option of Payee on the happening of an Event of Default as the same is defined in the Loan Agreement (hereinafter defined). All of the terms, covenants and conditions contained in the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents are hereby made part of this Note to the same extent and with the same force as if they were fully set forth herein. In the event of any conflict between the terms of the Note and the terms of the Loan Agreement, the Mortgages and other security instruments, the terms of this Note shall govern, except as specifically provided herein or in the Loan Agreement.
2. Prepayment . Except as provided below, Maker may not prepay the loan evidenced by this Note in whole or in part.
On or after the end of the fifth (5 th ) Loan Year (as hereinafter defined), on any scheduled payment date and subject to giving Payee not less than thirty (30) nor more than ninety (90) days prior written notice specifying the scheduled payment date on which prepayment is to be made (the Prepayment Date ), Maker may prepay the entire principal amount together with any and all accrued interest and other sums due under the Loan Documents, and subject to payment of a prepayment premium equal to the greater of:
(a) the positive amount, if any, equal to (i) the sum of the present values of all scheduled payments due under the Note from the Prepayment Date to and including the Maturity Date, minus (ii) the principal balance of the Note immediately prior to such prepayment; or
(b) 1.0% of the principal balance of the Note immediately prior to such prepayment.
All present values shall be calculated as of the Prepayment Date, using a discount rate, compounded monthly, equal to the yield rate plus twenty-five (25) basis points, converted to its monthly equivalent, of the United States Treasury Security having the closest maturity date to the Maturity Date of the Note as established in the Wall Street Journal or other business publication of general circulation five (5) business days before the Prepayment Date.
In the event that the yield rate on publicly traded United States Treasury Securities is not obtainable, then the nearest equivalent issue or index shall be selected, at Payees reasonable determination, and used to calculate the prepayment premium.
The loan evidenced by this Note will be open to prepayment without premium on any scheduled payment date during the last ninety (90) days of the term of this Note.
If any notice of prepayment is given, the principal balance of the loan evidenced by this Note and the other sums required pursuant to this Section 2 shall be due and payable on the Prepayment Date, unless Maker provides written notice to Payee that it is revoking said prepayment notice no later than five (5) business days prior to the Prepayment Date.
Provided no default exists under the Loan Documents, the above premium shall not be applicable to a prepayment resulting from Payees election to require insurance loss proceeds or condemnation awards to be applied to a payment of principal.
No partial prepayment shall be allowed.
The Loan Year is defined as any twelve month period commencing with the date on which the first monthly installment is due or any anniversary thereof.
3. Acceleration/Default . Maker acknowledges that the loan evidenced by this Note was made on the basis and assumption that Payee would receive the payments of principal and interest set forth herein for the full term of this Note. Therefore, whenever the Maturity Date of the loan evidenced by this Note has been accelerated by reason of an Event of Default under the Loan Documents, which Event of Default occurs prior to the time period, if any, in which prepayment is allowed and prior to the date on which the full amount of the balance of principal and interest then remaining unpaid shall be due, including an acceleration by reason of sale, conveyance, further encumbrance or other Event of Default (which acceleration shall be at Payees sole option), there shall be due, in addition to the outstanding principal balance, accrued interest and other sums due under the Loan Documents, a premium equal to the greater of:
(a) The sum obtained by adding:
(i) the positive amount, if any, equal to (aa) the sum of the present values of all scheduled payments due under this Note from the date of said payment to and including the Maturity Date of the Note, minus (bb) the then outstanding principal balance of the Note, and
(ii) 1.0 % of the then outstanding principal balance of the Note; or
(b) An amount equal to 10.0 % of the then outstanding principal balance of the Note.
All present values shall be calculated as of the date of said payment, using a discount rate, compounded monthly, equal to the yield rate, converted to its monthly equivalent, of the United States Treasury Security having the closest maturity date to the Maturity Date of the Note as established in the Wall Street Journal or other business publication of general circulation five (5) business days before the date of said payment. In the event that the yield rate on publicly traded United States Treasury Securities is not obtainable, then the nearest equivalent issue or index shall be selected, at Payees reasonable determination, and used to calculate the prepayment premium.
If an Event of Default occurs on or after the date on which prepayment is permitted, then in lieu of the above premium, payment of a premium calculated in the manner set forth in Section 2 hereof shall be required.
A tender of the amount necessary to satisfy the entire indebtedness, paid at any time following such Event of Default or acceleration, including at a foreclosure sale or during any subsequent redemption period, if any, shall be deemed a voluntary prepayment, and, at Payees option, such payment shall include a premium as described above.
4. Default Rate . Maker does hereby agree that upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and while any Event of Default exists, including, without limitation, the failure of Maker to pay the Debt in full on the Maturity Date, Payee shall be entitled to receive and Maker shall pay interest on the entire unpaid principal sum, effective from the date of Makers initial default with respect to such Event of Default without allowance for any applicable notice and/or grace period, at a rate (the Default Rate ) equal to seven percent (7%) above the Applicable Interest Rate, but in no event to exceed the highest rate permitted under the laws of the jurisdiction where the property secured by the Mortgage is situated. Notwithstanding the provisions of any statute or regulation to the contrary, the Default Rate shall apply to all sums evidenced hereby upon, during and after an Event of Default as provided herein, and also after entry of a judgment or judgments against Maker (whether in a mortgage foreclosure action or otherwise), and whether or not any event described in Paragraph 3.12 of the Loan Agreement hereof has occurred. This charge shall be added to the Debt, and shall be deemed secured by the Mortgage. This clause, however, shall not be construed as an agreement or privilege to extend the date of the payment of the Debt, nor as a waiver of any other right or remedy available to Payee by reason of the occurrence of any Event of Default.
5. Late Charge . If any monthly principal and interest payment payable under this Note is not paid in full within five (5) days of the date on which it is due, Maker shall pay to Payee an amount equal to the lesser of five percent (5%) of such unpaid sum or the maximum amount permitted by applicable law to defray the expenses incurred by Payee in handling and processing such delinquent payment and to compensate Payee for the loss of the use of such delinquent payment and such amount shall be secured by the Loan Documents.
6. Security for Loan . This Note is secured by, among other things, the Mortgage and certain other Loan Documents as set forth in the Loan Agreement. The term Mortgage as used in this Note shall mean that certain Mortgage, Assignment of Leases and Rents, Security Agreement and Fixture Filing dated the date hereof in the principal sum of the NJ Loan given by Maker for the use and benefit of Payee covering certain premises located at 100 American Road, Morris Plains, New Jersey, 200 American Road, Morris Plains, New Jersey, 300 American Road, Morris Plains, New Jersey, 400 American Road, Morris Plains, New Jersey and 500 American Road, Morris Plains, New Jersey.
7. Compliance with Law . It is expressly stipulated and agreed to be the intent of Maker and Payee at all times to comply with applicable state law or applicable United States federal law (to the extent that it permits Payee to contract for, charge, take, reserve or receive a greater amount of interest than under state law) and that this paragraph shall control every other covenant and agreement in this Note, the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents. If the applicable law (state or federal) is ever judicially interpreted so as to render usurious any amount called for under this Note or any of the other Loan Documents, or contracted for, charged, taken, reserved or received with respect to the Debt, or if Payees exercise of the option to accelerate the Maturity Date, or if any prepayment by Maker results in Makers having paid any interest in excess of that permitted by applicable law, then it is Payees express intent that all excess amounts theretofore collected by Payee shall be credited on the principal balance of this Note and all other Debt and the provisions of this Note, and the other Loan Documents immediately be deemed reformed and the amounts thereafter collectible hereunder and thereunder reduced, without the necessity of the execution of any new documents, so as to comply with the applicable law, but so as to permit the recovery of the fullest amount otherwise called for hereunder or thereunder. All sums paid or agreed to be paid to Payee for the use or forbearance of the Debt shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread throughout the full stated term of the Debt until payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of the Debt does not exceed the maximum lawful rate from time to time in effect and applicable to the Debt for so long as the Debt is outstanding. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or in any of the other Loan Documents, it is not the intention of Payee to accelerate the maturity of any interest that has not accrued at the time of such acceleration or to collect unearned interest at the time of such acceleration.
8. Amendments . This Note may not be modified, amended, waived, extended, changed, discharged or terminated orally or by any act or failure to act on the part of Maker or Payee, but only by an agreement in writing signed by the party against whom enforcement of any modification, amendment, waiver, extension, change, discharge or termination is sought.
9. Joint and Several Liability . If Maker consists of more than one person or party, the obligations and liabilities of each such person or party shall be joint and several.
10. Construction . Whenever used, the singular number shall include the plural, the plural the singular, and the words Payee and Maker shall include their respective successors, assigns, heirs, executors and administrators.
11. Waivers . Maker and all others who may become liable for the payment of all or any part of the Debt do hereby severally waive presentment and demand for payment, notice of dishonor, protest, notice of protest and non-payment and notice of intent to accelerate the maturity hereof (and of such acceleration). No release of any security for the Debt or extension of time for payment of this Note or any installment hereof and no alteration, amendment or waiver of any provision of this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or any other Loan Documents made by agreement between Payee and any other person or party shall release, modify, amend, waive, extend, change, discharge, terminate or affect the liability of Maker and any other who may become liable for the payment of all or any part of the Debt, under this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or any other Loan Documents.
12. Authority . Maker (and the undersigned representative of Maker, if any) represents that Maker has full power, authority and legal right to execute, deliver and perform its obligations pursuant to this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents and that this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents constitute valid and binding obligations of Maker.
13. Time . Time is of the essence of this Note.
14. Replacement Note . In the event of the loss, theft or destruction of this Note, upon Makers receipt of a reasonably satisfactory indemnification agreement executed in favor of Maker by Payee or in the event of the mutilation of this Note, upon the surrender of the mutilated Note by Payee to Maker, Maker shall execute and deliver to Payee a new mortgage note in form and content identical to this Note in lieu of the lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note.
15. Notice . All notices required to be given pursuant hereto shall be given in the manner specified in the Loan Agreement directed to the parties at their respective addresses as provided therein.
16. Costs and Expenses . Maker shall pay all expenses and costs, including fees and out-of-pocket expenses of attorneys and expert witnesses and costs of investigation incurred by Payee as a result of any Event of Default or in connection with efforts to collect any amount due under this Note or to enforce the provisions of any of the Loan Documents, including those incurred in post-judgment collection efforts and in any bankruptcy proceeding (including any action for relief from the automatic stay of any bankruptcy proceeding) or judicial or non-judicial foreclosure proceeding.
17. Forbearance . Any forbearance by Payee in exercising any right or remedy under this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or any other Loan Document or otherwise afforded by applicable law shall not be a waiver of or preclude the exercise of that or any other right or remedy. The acceptance by Payee of any payment after the due date of such payment or in an amount which is less than the required payment shall not be a waiver of Payees right to require prompt payment when due of all other payments or to exercise any right or remedy with respect to any failure to make prompt payment. Enforcement by Payee of any security for Makers obligations under this Note shall not constitute an election by Payee of remedies so as to preclude the exercise of any other right or remedy available to Payee.
18. Section Headings . The Section headings inserted in this Note have been included for convenience only and are not intended and shall not be construed to limit or define in any way the substance of any section contained herein.
19. Limitation on Liability . Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, but subject to the obligations of Section 6.6 of the Loan Agreement, any claim based on or in respect of any liability of Maker under this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or any other Loan Document shall be enforced only against the Mortgaged Property (as such term is defined in the Mortgage) and any other collateral now or hereafter given to secure this Note and not against any other assets, properties or funds of Maker; provided , however , that the liability of Maker for loss, costs or damage arising out of the matters described in the subsections below (collectively, Non-Recourse Carveout Obligations ) shall not be limited solely to the Mortgaged Property and other collateral now or hereafter given to secure this Note but shall include all of the assets, properties and funds of Maker: (i) fraud, misrepresentation and waste; (ii) any rents, issues or profits collected more than one (1) month in advance of their due dates; (iii) any misapplication of rents, issues or profits, security deposits and any other payments from tenants or occupants (including, without limitation, lease termination fees), insurance proceeds, condemnation awards or other sums of a similar nature; (iv) liability under environmental covenants, conditions and indemnities contained in the Loan Agreement, including, without limitation, Section 3.9, the Mortgage and in any separate environmental indemnity agreements; (v) personalty or fixtures removed or allowed to be removed by or on behalf of Maker and not replaced by items of equal or greater value or functionality than the personalty or fixtures so removed; (vi) failure to pay taxes, assessments or ground rents prior to delinquency, or to pay charges for labor, materials or other charges which can create liens on any portion of the Mortgaged Property before such charges become a lien on such Mortgaged Property or any portion thereof and any sums expended by Payee in the performance of or compliance with the obligations of Maker under the Loan Documents, including, without limitation, sums expended to pay taxes or assessments or hazard insurance premiums or bills for utilities or other services or products for the benefit of the Mortgaged Property; (vii) the unauthorized sale, conveyance or transfer of title to the Mortgaged Property or encumbrance of the Mortgaged Property; (viii)the failure of Maker to maintain its status as a single purpose, bankruptcy-remote entity pursuant to its organizational documents and the Loan Documents; (ix) a violation of the provisions of Section 3.7(h) of the Loan Agreement; (x) the filing of any action to partition the Mortgaged Property or any Individual Property (as defined in the Loan Agreement) or the occurrence of any such partition or any sale pursuant to any such action; (xi) the transfer of any TIC (as defined in the Loan Agreement) interests in any of the Mortgaged Property or any Individual Property, or any direct or indirect interests in the holder of any such TIC interest, other than as expressly permitted under Section 3.4(h) of the Loan Agreement; (xii) the termination, cancellation or nonrenewal of an Approved Manager (as defined in the Loan Agreement) or any other failure of an Approved Manager to serve as manager of any Permitted TIC (as defined in the Loan Agreement); (xiii) the failure of any Approved Manager to meet the Management Requirements (as defined in the Loan Agreement); and (xiv) attorneys fees, court costs and other expenses incurred by Payee in connection with enforcement of its remedies under the Loan Documents, including, but not limited to, in connection with any bankruptcy proceeding or reorganization brought by or against Maker or any Principal (as defined in the Loan Agreement) of Maker.
Nothing herein shall be deemed (w) to be a waiver of any right which Payee may have under any bankruptcy law of the United States or the state where the Mortgaged Property is located including, but not limited to, Section 506(a), 506(b), 1111(b) or any other provisions of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code to file a claim for the full amount of the indebtedness secured by the Mortgage or to require that all collateral securing the indebtedness secured hereby shall continue to secure all of the indebtedness owing to Payee in accordance with this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents; (x) to impair the validity of the indebtedness secured by the Mortgage; (y) to impair the right of Payee as mortgagee or secured party to commence an action to foreclose any lien or security interest; or (z)to modify, diminish or discharge the liability of any guarantor under any guaranty or of any indemnitor under any indemnity agreement.

1 . Payment of Principal and Interest . Principal and interest shall be paid as follows:
(a) If the loan proceeds are not disbursed on the first day of a month, then interest only at the Applicable Interest Rate from and including the date of disbursement of the loan proceeds to the first day of the month following such disbursement shall be due and payable in advance on the date of such disbursement;
(b) Interest only is to be paid in installments as follows: $52,700.00 on the first day of April, 2008 and on the first day of each calendar month thereafter up to and including the first day of February, 2013; and
(c) The outstanding principal balance and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon and all other sums and fees due under this Note shall be due and payable on the first day of March, 2013 (the Maturity Date ).
Interest on the principal balance of this Note shall be calculated on a monthly basis using, as the agreed method of calculation, a three hundred sixty (360) day year consisting of twelve (12) months of thirty (30) days each; provided , however , that interest for a period of less than a full month shall be calculated by multiplying the actual number of days elapsed during such partial month by a daily rate based upon a three hundred sixty-five day year and the interest rate then due under this Note.
The term Applicable Interest Rate as used in this Note shall mean from the date of disbursement of the loan proceeds through and including the Maturity Date, a rate of Five and Forty-Four One-Hundredths Percent (5.44%) per annum.
If at any time Payee receives, from Maker or otherwise, any amount applicable to the Debt (hereinafter defined) which is less than all amounts due and payable at such time, Payee may apply that payment to amounts then due and payable in any manner and in any order determined by Payee, in Payees sole discretion. Payee shall, however, be under no obligation to accept any amount less than all amounts then due and payable. Maker agrees that neither Payees acceptance of a payment from Maker in an amount that is less than all amounts then due and payable nor Payees application of such payment shall constitute or be deemed to constitute either a waiver of the unpaid amounts or an accord and satisfaction. This provision shall control notwithstanding any inconsistent direction by Maker or any other obligor hereunder.
This Note is issued by Maker to Payee pursuant to a certain Loan Agreement by and among Maker and John Hancock of even date herewith (the Loan Agreement ) whereby John Hancock has agreed to make three (3) separate loans to Maker in the aggregate principal amount of $105,000,000.00. This Note evidences a portion of one of such loans, which loan is in the aggregate principal amount of $32,585,000.00 (the NJ Loan ), as set forth in the Loan Agreement. Reference is hereby made to the Loan Agreement for a full statement of the rights of the holder of, and the nature and extent of the security for, this Note. The whole of the principal sum of this Note, together with all interest accrued and unpaid thereon and all other sums due under this Note, any other mortgage note evidencing any other portion of the NJ Loan, and the Loan Agreement and any other instrument now or hereafter evidencing, securing, guaranteeing or executed in connection with the Loan Agreement or the indebtedness evidenced hereby (the Loan Documents ) (all such sums hereinafter collectively referred to as the Debt ) shall without notice become immediately due and payable at the option of Payee on the happening of an Event of Default as the same is defined in the Loan Agreement (hereinafter defined). All of the terms, covenants and conditions contained in the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents are hereby made part of this Note to the same extent and with the same force as if they were fully set forth herein. In the event of any conflict between the terms of the Note and the terms of the Loan Agreement, the Mortgages and other security instruments, the terms of this Note shall govern, except as specifically provided herein or in the Loan Agreement.
2. Prepayment . Except as provided below, Maker may not prepay the loan evidenced by this Note in whole or in part.
On or after the end of the third (3 rd ) Loan Year (as hereinafter defined), on any scheduled payment date and subject to giving Payee not less than thirty (30) nor more than ninety (90) days prior written notice specifying the scheduled payment date on which prepayment is to be made (the Prepayment Date ), Maker may prepay the entire principal amount together with any and all accrued interest and other sums due under the Loan Documents, and subject to payment of a prepayment premium equal to the greater of:
(a) the positive amount, if any, equal to (i) the sum of the present values of all scheduled payments due under the Note from the Prepayment Date to and including the Maturity Date, minus (ii) the principal balance of the Note immediately prior to such prepayment; or
(b) 1.0% of the principal balance of the Note immediately prior to such prepayment.
All present values shall be calculated as of the Prepayment Date, using a discount rate, compounded monthly, equal to the yield rate plus twenty-five (25) basis points, converted to its monthly equivalent, of the United States Treasury Security having the closest maturity date to the Maturity Date of the Note as established in the Wall Street Journal or other business publication of general circulation five (5) business days before the Prepayment Date.
In the event that the yield rate on publicly traded United States Treasury Securities is not obtainable, then the nearest equivalent issue or index shall be selected, at Payees reasonable determination, and used to calculate the prepayment premium.
The loan evidenced by this Note will be open to prepayment without premium on any scheduled payment date during the last ninety (90) days of the term of this Note.
If any notice of prepayment is given, the principal balance of the loan evidenced by this Note and the other sums required pursuant to this Section 2 shall be due and payable on the Prepayment Date, unless Maker provides written notice to Payee that it is revoking said prepayment notice no later than five (5) business days prior to the Prepayment Date.
Provided no default exists under the Loan Documents, the above premium shall not be applicable to a prepayment resulting from Payees election to require insurance loss proceeds or condemnation awards to be applied to a payment of principal.
No partial prepayment shall be allowed.
The Loan Year is defined as any twelve month period commencing with the date on which the first monthly installment is due or any anniversary thereof.
3. Acceleration/Default . Maker acknowledges that the loan evidenced by this Note was made on the basis and assumption that Payee would receive the payments of principal and interest set forth herein for the full term of this Note. Therefore, whenever the Maturity Date of the loan evidenced by this Note has been accelerated by reason of an Event of Default under the Loan Documents, which Event of Default occurs prior to the time period, if any, in which prepayment is allowed and prior to the date on which the full amount of the balance of principal and interest then remaining unpaid shall be due, including an acceleration by reason of sale, conveyance, further encumbrance or other Event of Default (which acceleration shall be at Payees sole option), there shall be due, in addition to the outstanding principal balance, accrued interest and other sums due under the Loan Documents, a premium equal to the greater of:
(a) The sum obtained by adding:
(i) the positive amount, if any, equal to (aa) the sum of the present values of all scheduled payments due under this Note from the date of said payment to and including the Maturity Date of the Note, minus (bb) the then outstanding principal balance of the Note, and
(ii) 1.0 % of the then outstanding principal balance of the Note; or
(b) An amount equal to 10.0 % of the then outstanding principal balance of the Note.
All present values shall be calculated as of the date of said payment, using a discount rate, compounded monthly, equal to the yield rate, converted to its monthly equivalent, of the United States Treasury Security having the closest maturity date to the Maturity Date of the Note as established in the Wall Street Journal or other business publication of general circulation five (5) business days before the date of said payment. In the event that the yield rate on publicly traded United States Treasury Securities is not obtainable, then the nearest equivalent issue or index shall be selected, at Payees reasonable determination, and used to calculate the prepayment premium.
If an Event of Default occurs on or after the date on which prepayment is permitted, then in lieu of the above premium, payment of a premium calculated in the manner set forth in Section 2 hereof shall be required.
A tender of the amount necessary to satisfy the entire indebtedness, paid at any time following such Event of Default or acceleration, including at a foreclosure sale or during any subsequent redemption period, if any, shall be deemed a voluntary prepayment, and, at Payees option, such payment shall include a premium as described above.
4. Default Rate . Maker does hereby agree that upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and while any Event of Default exists, including, without limitation, the failure of Maker to pay the Debt in full on the Maturity Date, Payee shall be entitled to receive and Maker shall pay interest on the entire unpaid principal sum, effective from the date of Makers initial default with respect to such Event of Default without allowance for any applicable notice and/or grace period, at a rate (the Default Rate ) equal to seven percent (7%) above the Applicable Interest Rate, but in no event to exceed the highest rate permitted under the laws of the jurisdiction where the property secured by the Mortgage is situated. Notwithstanding the provisions of any statute or regulation to the contrary, the Default Rate shall apply to all sums evidenced hereby upon, during and after an Event of Default as provided herein, and also after entry of a judgment or judgments against Maker (whether in a mortgage foreclosure action or otherwise), and whether or not any event described in Paragraph 3.12 of the Loan Agreement hereof has occurred. This charge shall be added to the Debt, and shall be deemed secured by the Mortgage. This clause, however, shall not be construed as an agreement or privilege to extend the date of the payment of the Debt, nor as a waiver of any other right or remedy available to Payee by reason of the occurrence of any Event of Default.
5. Late Charge . If any monthly principal and interest payment payable under this Note is not paid in full within five (5) days of the date on which it is due, Maker shall pay to Payee an amount equal to the lesser of five percent (5%) of such unpaid sum or the maximum amount permitted by applicable law to defray the expenses incurred by Payee in handling and processing such delinquent payment and to compensate Payee for the loss of the use of such delinquent payment and such amount shall be secured by the Loan Documents.
6. Security for Loan . This Note is secured by, among other things, the Mortgage and certain other Loan Documents as set forth in the Loan Agreement The term Mortgage as used in this Note shall mean that certain Open-End Mortgage Deed, Assignment of Leases and Rents, Security Agreement and Fixture Filing dated the date hereof in the principal sum of the NJ Loan given by Maker for the use and benefit of Payee covering certain premises located at 100 American Road, Morris Plains, New Jersey, 200 American Road, Morris Plains, New Jersey, 300 American Road, Morris Plains, New Jersey, 400 American Road, Morris Plains, New Jersey, and 500 American Road, Morris Plains, New Jersey.
7. Compliance with Law . It is expressly stipulated and agreed to be the intent of Maker and Payee at all times to comply with applicable state law or applicable United States federal law (to the extent that it permits Payee to contract for, charge, take, reserve or receive a greater amount of interest than under state law) and that this paragraph shall control every other covenant and agreement in this Note, the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents. If the applicable law (state or federal) is ever judicially interpreted so as to render usurious any amount called for under this Note or any of the other Loan Documents, or contracted for, charged, taken, reserved or received with respect to the Debt, or if Payees exercise of the option to accelerate the Maturity Date, or if any prepayment by Maker results in Makers having paid any interest in excess of that permitted by applicable law, then it is Payees express intent that all excess amounts theretofore collected by Payee shall be credited on the principal balance of this Note and all other Debt and the provisions of this Note, and the other Loan Documents immediately be deemed reformed and the amounts thereafter collectible hereunder and thereunder reduced, without the necessity of the execution of any new documents, so as to comply with the applicable law, but so as to permit the recovery of the fullest amount otherwise called for hereunder or thereunder. All sums paid or agreed to be paid to Payee for the use or forbearance of the Debt shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread throughout the full stated term of the Debt until payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of the Debt does not exceed the maximum lawful rate from time to time in effect and applicable to the Debt for so long as the Debt is outstanding. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or in any of the other Loan Documents, it is not the intention of Payee to accelerate the maturity of any interest that has not accrued at the time of such acceleration or to collect unearned interest at the time of such acceleration.
8. Amendments . This Note may not be modified, amended, waived, extended, changed, discharged or terminated orally or by any act or failure to act on the part of Maker or Payee, but only by an agreement in writing signed by the party against whom enforcement of any modification, amendment, waiver, extension, change, discharge or termination is sought.
9. Joint and Several Liability . If Maker consists of more than one person or party, the obligations and liabilities of each such person or party shall be joint and several.
10. Construction . Whenever used, the singular number shall include the plural, the plural the singular, and the words Payee and Maker shall include their respective successors, assigns, heirs, executors and administrators.
11. Waivers . Maker and all others who may become liable for the payment of all or any part of the Debt do hereby severally waive presentment and demand for payment, notice of dishonor, protest, notice of protest and non-payment and notice of intent to accelerate the maturity hereof (and of such acceleration). No release of any security for the Debt or extension of time for payment of this Note or any installment hereof and no alteration, amendment or waiver of any provision of this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or any other Loan Documents made by agreement between Payee and any other person or party shall release, modify, amend, waive, extend, change, discharge, terminate or affect the liability of Maker and any other who may become liable for the payment of all or any part of the Debt, under this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or any other Loan Documents.
12. Authority . Maker (and the undersigned representative of Maker, if any) represents that Maker has full power, authority and legal right to execute, deliver and perform its obligations pursuant to this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents and that this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents constitute valid and binding obligations of Maker.
13. Time . Time is of the essence of this Note.
14. Replacement Note . In the event of the loss, theft or destruction of this Note, upon Makers receipt of a reasonably satisfactory indemnification agreement executed in favor of Maker by Payee or in the event of the mutilation of this Note, upon the surrender of the mutilated Note by Payee to Maker, Maker shall execute and deliver to Payee a new mortgage note in form and content identical to this Note in lieu of the lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note.
15. Notice . All notices required to be given pursuant hereto shall be given in the manner specified in the Loan Agreement directed to the parties at their respective addresses as provided therein.
16. Costs and Expenses . Maker shall pay all expenses and costs, including fees and out-of-pocket expenses of attorneys and expert witnesses and costs of investigation incurred by Payee as a result of any Event of Default or in connection with efforts to collect any amount due under this Note or to enforce the provisions of any of the Loan Documents, including those incurred in post-judgment collection efforts and in any bankruptcy proceeding (including any action for relief from the automatic stay of any bankruptcy proceeding) or judicial or non-judicial foreclosure proceeding.
17. Forbearance . Any forbearance by Payee in exercising any right or remedy under this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or any other Loan Document or otherwise afforded by applicable law shall not be a waiver of or preclude the exercise of that or any other right or remedy. The acceptance by Payee of any payment after the due date of such payment or in an amount which is less than the required payment shall not be a waiver of Payees right to require prompt payment when due of all other payments or to exercise any right or remedy with respect to any failure to make prompt payment. Enforcement by Payee of any security for Makers obligations under this Note shall not constitute an election by Payee of remedies so as to preclude the exercise of any other right or remedy available to Payee.
18. Section Headings. The Section headings inserted in this Note have been included for convenience only and are not intended and shall not be construed to limit or define in any way the substance of any section contained herein.
19. Limitation on Liability .

1. Payment of Principal and Interest . Principal and interest shall be paid as follows:
(a) If the loan proceeds are not disbursed on the first day of a month, then interest only at the Applicable Interest Rate from and including the date of disbursement of the loan proceeds to the first day of the month following such disbursement shall be due and payable in advance on the date of such disbursement;
(b) Interest only is to be paid in installments as follows: $157,592.08 on the first day of April, 2008 and on the first day of each calendar month thereafter up to and including the first day of March, 2013;
(c) Principal and interest is to be paid in installments as follows: $187,125.48 on the first day of April, 2013, and on the first day of each calendar month thereafter up to and including the first day of February, 2018; and
(d) The outstanding principal balance and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon and all other sums and fees due under this Note shall be due and payable on the first day of March, 2018 (the Maturity Date ).
Interest on the principal balance of this Note shall be calculated on a monthly basis using, as the agreed method of calculation, a three hundred sixty (360) day year consisting of twelve (12) months of thirty (30) days each; provided , however , that interest for a period of less than a full month shall be calculated by multiplying the actual number of days elapsed during such partial month by a daily rate based upon a three hundred sixty-five day year and the interest rate then due under this Note.
The term Applicable Interest Rate as used in this Note shall mean from the date of disbursement of the loan proceeds through and including the Maturity Date, a rate of Six and Seventeen One-Hundredths Percent (6.17%) per annum.
If at any time Payee receives, from Maker or otherwise, any amount applicable to the Debt (hereinafter defined) which is less than all amounts due and payable at such time, Payee may apply that payment to amounts then due and payable in any manner and in any order determined by Payee, in Payees sole discretion. Payee shall, however, be under no obligation to accept any amount less than all amounts then due and payable. Maker agrees that neither Payees acceptance of a payment from Maker in an amount that is less than all amounts then due and payable nor Payees application of such payment shall constitute or be deemed to constitute either a waiver of the unpaid amounts or an accord and satisfaction. This provision shall control notwithstanding any inconsistent direction by Maker or any other obligor hereunder.
This Note is issued by Maker to Payee pursuant to a certain Loan Agreement by and among Maker and John Hancock of even date herewith (the Loan Agreement ) whereby John Hancock has agreed to make three (3) separate loans to Maker in the aggregate principal amount of $105,000,000.00. This Note evidences a portion of one of such loans, which loan is in the aggregate principal amount of $50,650,000.00 (the NY Loan ), as set forth in the Loan Agreement. Reference is hereby made to the Loan Agreement for a full statement of the rights of the holder of, and the nature and extent of the security for, this Note. The whole of the principal sum of this Note, together with all interest accrued and unpaid thereon and all other sums due under this Note, any other mortgage note evidencing any other portion of the NY Loan, and the Loan Agreement and any other instrument now or hereafter evidencing, securing, guaranteeing or executed in connection with the Loan Agreement or the indebtedness evidenced hereby (the Loan Documents ) (all such sums hereinafter collectively referred to as the Debt ) shall without notice become immediately due and payable at the option of Payee on the happening of an Event of Default as the same is defined in the Loan Agreement (hereinafter defined). All of the terms, covenants and conditions contained in the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents are hereby made part of this Note to the same extent and with the same force as if they were fully set forth herein. In the event of any conflict between the terms of the Note and the terms of the Loan Agreement, the Mortgages and other security instruments, the terms of this Note shall govern, except as specifically provided herein or in the Loan Agreement.
2. Prepayment . Except as provided below, Maker may not prepay the loan evidenced by this Note in whole or in part.
On or after the end of the fifth (5 th ) Loan Year (as hereinafter defined), on any scheduled payment date and subject to giving Payee not less than thirty (30) nor more than ninety (90) days prior written notice specifying the scheduled payment date on which prepayment is to be made (the Prepayment Date ), Maker may prepay the entire principal amount together with any and all accrued interest and other sums due under the Loan Documents, and subject to payment of a prepayment premium equal to the greater of:
(a) the positive amount, if any, equal to (i) the sum of the present values of all scheduled payments due under the Note from the Prepayment Date to and including the Maturity Date, minus (ii) the principal balance of the Note immediately prior to such prepayment; or
(b) 1.0% of the principal balance of the Note immediately prior to such prepayment.
All present values shall be calculated as of the Prepayment Date, using a discount rate, compounded monthly, equal to the yield rate plus twenty-five (25) basis points, converted to its monthly equivalent, of the United States Treasury Security having the closest maturity date to the Maturity Date of the Note as established in the Wall Street Journal or other business publication of general circulation five (5) business days before the Prepayment Date.
In the event that the yield rate on publicly traded United States Treasury Securities is not obtainable, then the nearest equivalent issue or index shall be selected, at Payees reasonable determination, and used to calculate the prepayment premium.
The loan evidenced by this Note will be open to prepayment without premium on any scheduled payment date during the last ninety (90) days of the term of this Note.
If any notice of prepayment is given, the principal balance of the loan evidenced by this Note and the other sums required pursuant to this Section 2 shall be due and payable on the Prepayment Date, unless Maker provides written notice to Payee that it is revoking said prepayment notice no later than five (5) business days prior to the Prepayment Date.
Provided no default exists under the Loan Documents, the above premium shall not be applicable to a prepayment resulting from Payees election to require insurance loss proceeds or condemnation awards to be applied to a payment of principal.
No partial prepayment shall be allowed.
The Loan Year is defined as any twelve month period commencing with the date on which the first monthly installment is due or any anniversary thereof.
3. Acceleration/Default . Maker acknowledges that the loan evidenced by this Note was made on the basis and assumption that Payee would receive the payments of principal and interest set forth herein for the full term of this Note. Therefore, whenever the Maturity Date of the loan evidenced by this Note has been accelerated by reason of an Event of Default under the Loan Documents, which Event of Default occurs prior to the time period, if any, in which prepayment is allowed and prior to the date on which the full amount of the balance of principal and interest then remaining unpaid shall be due, including an acceleration by reason of sale, conveyance, further encumbrance or other Event of Default (which acceleration shall be at Payees sole option), there shall be due, in addition to the outstanding principal balance, accrued interest and other sums due under the Loan Documents, a premium equal to the greater of:
(a) The sum obtained by adding:
(i) the positive amount, if any, equal to (aa) the sum of the present values of all scheduled payments due under this Note from the date of said payment to and including the Maturity Date of the Note, minus (bb) the then outstanding principal balance of the Note, and
(ii) 1.0 % of the then outstanding principal balance of the Note; or
(b) An amount equal to 10.0 % of the then outstanding principal balance of the Note.
All present values shall be calculated as of the date of said payment, using a discount rate, compounded monthly, equal to the yield rate, converted to its monthly equivalent, of the United States Treasury Security having the closest maturity date to the Maturity Date of the Note as established in the Wall Street Journal or other business publication of general circulation five (5) business days before the date of said payment In the event that the yield rate on publicly traded United States Treasury Securities is not obtainable, then the nearest equivalent issue or index shall be selected, at Payees reasonable determination, and used to calculate the prepayment premium.
If an Event of Default occurs on or after the date on which prepayment is permitted, then in lieu of the above premium, payment of a premium calculated in the manner set forth in Section 2 hereof shall be required.
A tender of the amount necessary to satisfy the entire indebtedness, paid at any time following such Event of Default or acceleration, including at a foreclosure sale or during any subsequent redemption period, if any, shall be deemed a voluntary prepayment, and, at Payees option, such payment shall include a premium as described above.
4. Default Rate . Maker does hereby agree that upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and while any Event of Default exists, including, without limitation, the failure of Maker to pay the Debt in full on the Maturity Date, Payee shall be entitled to receive and Maker shall pay interest on the entire unpaid principal sum, effective from the date of Makers initial default with respect to such Event of Default without allowance for any applicable notice and/or grace period, at a rate (the Default Rate ) equal to seven percent (7%) above the Applicable Interest Rate, but in no event to exceed the highest rate permitted under the laws of the jurisdiction where the property secured by the Mortgage is situated. Notwithstanding the provisions of any statute or regulation to the contrary, the Default Rate shall apply to all sums evidenced hereby upon, during and after an Event of Default as provided herein, and also after entry of a judgment or judgments against Maker (whether in a mortgage foreclosure action or otherwise), and whether or not any event described in Paragraph 3.12 of the Loan Agreement hereof has occurred. This charge shall be added to the Debt, and shall be deemed secured by the Mortgage. This clause, however, shall not be construed as an agreement or privilege to extend the date of the payment of the Debt, nor as a waiver of any other right or remedy available to Payee by reason of the occurrence of any Event of Default.
5. Late Charge . If any monthly principal and interest payment payable under this Note is not paid in full within five (5) days of the date on which it is due, Maker shall pay to Payee an amount equal to the lesser of five percent (5%) of such unpaid sum or the maximum amount permitted by applicable law to defray the expenses incurred by Payee in handling and processing such delinquent payment and to compensate Payee for the loss of the use of such delinquent payment and such amount shall be secured by the Loan Documents.
6. Security for Loan. This Note is secured by, among other things, the Mortgage and certain other Loan Documents as set forth in the Loan Agreement. The term Mortgage as used in this Note shall mean that certain Mortgage Deed, Assignment of Leases and Rents, Security Agreement and Fixture Filing dated the date hereof in the principal sum of the NY Loan given by Maker for the use and benefit of Payee covering certain premises located at 103 Fairview Park Drive, 412 Fairview Park Drive, 401 Fieldcrest Drive, 404 Fieldcrest Drive, 199 Ridgewood Drive, and 203 Ridgewood Drive in the Town of Greenburgh, and at 36 Midland Avenue, 100-110 Midland Avenue, 112 Midland Avenue, and 8 Slater Street in the Village of Port Chester, all in the County of Westchester and State of New York, as more particularly described therein.
7. Compliance with Law . It is expressly stipulated and agreed to be the intent of Maker and Payee at all times to comply with applicable state law or applicable United States federal law (to the extent that it permits Payee to contract for, charge, take, reserve or receive a greater amount of interest than under state law) and that this paragraph shall control every other covenant and agreement in this Note, the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents. If the applicable law (state or federal) is ever judicially interpreted so as to render usurious any amount called for under this Note or any of the other Loan Documents, or contracted for, charged, taken, reserved or received with respect to the Debt, or if Payees exercise of the option to accelerate the Maturity Date, or if any prepayment by Maker results in Makers having paid any interest in excess of that permitted by applicable law, then it is Payees express intent that all excess amounts theretofore collected by Payee shall be credited on the principal balance of this Note and all other Debt and the provisions of this Note, and the other Loan Documents immediately be deemed reformed and the amounts thereafter collectible hereunder and thereunder reduced, without the necessity of the execution of any new documents, so as to comply with the applicable law, but so as to permit the recovery of the fullest amount otherwise called for hereunder or thereunder. All sums paid or agreed to be paid to Payee for the use or forbearance of the Debt shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread throughout the full stated term of the Debt until payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of the Debt does not exceed the maximum lawful rate from time to time in effect and applicable to the Debt for so long as the Debt is outstanding. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or in any of the other Loan Documents, it is not the intention of Payee to accelerate the maturity of any interest that has not accrued at the time of such acceleration or to collect unearned interest at the time of such acceleration.
8. Amendments . This Note may not be modified, amended, waived, extended, changed, discharged or terminated orally or by any act or failure to act on the part of Maker or Payee, but only by an agreement in writing signed by the party against whom enforcement of any modification, amendment, waiver, extension, change, discharge or termination is sought.
9. Joint and Several Liability , If Maker consists of more than one person or party, the obligations and liabilities of each such person or party shall be joint and several.
10. Construction . Whenever used, the singular number shall include the plural, the plural the singular, and the words Payee and Maker shall include their respective successors, assigns, heirs, executors and administrators.
11. Waivers . Maker and all others who may become liable for the payment of all or any part of the Debt do hereby severally waive presentment and demand for payment, notice of dishonor, protest, notice of protest and non-payment and notice of intent to accelerate the maturity hereof (and of such acceleration). No release of any security for the Debt or extension of time for payment of this Note or any installment hereof and no alteration, amendment or waiver of any provision of this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or any other Loan Documents made by agreement between Payee and any other person or party shall release, modify, amend, waive, extend, change, discharge, terminate or affect the liability of Maker and any other who may become liable for the payment of all or any part of the Debt, under this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or any other Loan Documents.
12. Authority . Maker (and the undersigned representative of Maker, if any) represents that Maker has full power, authority and legal right to execute, deliver and perform its obligations pursuant to this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents and that this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents constitute valid and binding obligations of Maker.
13. Time . Time is of the essence of this Note.
14. Replacement Note . In the event of the loss, theft or destruction of this Note, upon Makers receipt of a reasonably satisfactory indemnification agreement executed in favor of Maker by Payee or in the event of the mutilation of this Note, upon the surrender of the mutilated Note by Payee to Maker, Maker shall execute and deliver to Payee a new mortgage note in form and content identical to this Note in lieu of the lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note.
15. Notice . All notices required to be given pursuant hereto shall be given in the manner specified in the Loan Agreement directed to the parties at their respective addresses as provided therein.
16. Costs and Expenses . Maker shall pay all expenses and costs, including fees and out-of-pocket expenses of attorneys and expert witnesses and costs of investigation incurred by Payee as a result of any Event of Default or in connection with efforts to collect any amount due under this Note or to enforce the provisions of any of the Loan Documents, including those incurred in post-judgment collection efforts and in any bankruptcy proceeding (including any action for relief from the automatic stay of any bankruptcy proceeding) or judicial or non-judicial foreclosure proceeding.
17. Forbearance . Any forbearance by Payee in exercising any right or remedy under this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or any other Loan Document or otherwise afforded by applicable law shall not be a waiver of or preclude the exercise of that or any other right or remedy. The acceptance by Payee of any payment after the due date of such payment or in an amount which is less than the required payment shall not be a waiver of Payees right to require prompt payment when due of all other payments or to exercise any right or remedy with respect to any failure to make prompt payment. Enforcement by Payee of any security for Makers obligations under this Note shall not constitute an election by Payee of remedies so as to preclude the exercise of any other right or remedy available to Payee.
18. Section Headings . The Section headings inserted in this Note have been included for convenience only and are not intended and shall not be construed to limit or define in any way the substance of any section contained herein.
19. Limitation on Liability . Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, but subject to the obligations of Section 6.6 of the Loan Agreement, any claim based on or in respect of any liability of Maker under this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or any other Loan Document shall be enforced only against the Mortgaged Property (as such term is defined in the Mortgage) and any other collateral now or hereafter given to secure this Note and not against any other assets, properties or funds of Maker; provided , however , that the liability of Maker for loss, costs or damage arising out of the matters described in the subsections below (collectively, Non-Recourse Carveout Obligations ) shall not be limited solely to the Mortgaged Property and other collateral now or hereafter given to secure this Note but shall include all of the assets, properties and funds of Maker: (i) fraud, misrepresentation and waste; (ii) any rents, issues or profits collected more than one (1) month in advance of their due dates; (iii) any misapplication of rents, issues or profits, security deposits and any other payments from tenants or occupants (including, without limitation, lease termination fees), insurance proceeds, condemnation awards or other sums of a similar nature; (iv) liability under environmental covenants, conditions and indemnities contained in the Loan Agreement, including, without limitation, Section 3.9, the Mortgage and in any separate environmental indemnity agreements; (v) personalty or fixtures removed or allowed to be removed by or on behalf of Maker and not replaced by items of equal or greater value or functionality than the personalty or fixtures so removed; (vi) failure to pay taxes, assessments or ground rents prior to delinquency, or to pay charges for labor, materials or other charges which can create liens on any portion of the Mortgaged Property before such charges become a lien on such Mortgaged Property or any portion thereof and any sums expended by Payee in the performance of or compliance with the obligations of Maker under the Loan Documents, including, without limitation, sums expended to pay taxes or assessments or hazard insurance premiums or bills for utilities or other services or products for the benefit of the Mortgaged Property; (vii) the unauthorized sale, conveyance or transfer of title to the Mortgaged Property or encumbrance of the Mortgaged Property; (viii) the failure of Maker to maintain its status as a single purpose , bankruptcy-remote entity pursuant to its organizational documents and the Loan Documents; (ix) a violation of the provisions of Section 3.7(h) of the Loan Agreement; (x) the filing of any action to partition the Mortgaged Property or any Individual Property (as defined in the Loan Agreement) or the occurrence of any such partition or any sale pursuant to any such action; (xi) the transfer of any TIC (as defined in the Loan Agreement) interests in any of the Mortgaged Property or any Individual Property, or any direct or indirect interests in the holder of any such TIC interest, other than as expressly permitted under Section 3.4(h) of the Loan Agreement; (xii) the termination, cancellation or non-renewal of an Approved Manager (as defined in the Loan Agreement) or any other failure of an Approved Manager to serve as manager of any Permitted TIC (as defined in the Loan Agreement); (xiii) the failure of any Approved Manager to meet the Management Requirements (as defined in the Loan Agreement); and (xiv) attorneys fees, court costs and other expenses incurred by Payee in connection with enforcement of its remedies under the Loan Documents, including, but not limited to, in connection with any bankruptcy proceeding or reorganization brought by or against Maker or any Principal (as defined in the Loan Agreement) of Maker.
Nothing herein shall be deemed (w) to be a waiver of any right which Payee may have under any bankruptcy law of the United States or the state where the Mortgaged Property is located including, but not limited to, Section 506(a), 506(b), 1111 (b) or any other provisions of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code to file a claim for the full amount of the indebtedness secured by the Mortgage or to require that all collateral securing the indebtedness secured hereby shall continue to secure all of the indebtedness owing to Payee in accordance with this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents; (x) to impair the validity of the indebtedness secured by the Mortgage; (y) to impair the right of Payee as mortgagee or secured party to commence an action to foreclose any lien or security interest; or (z) to modify, diminish or discharge the liability of any guarantor under any guaranty or of any indemnitor under any indemnity agreement.

1. Payment of Principal and Interest . Principal and interest shall be paid as follows:
(a) If the loan proceeds are not disbursed on the first day of a month, then interest only at the Applicable Interest Rate from and including the date of disbursement of the loan proceeds to the first day of the month following such disbursement shall be due and payable in advance on the date of such disbursement;
(b) Interest only is to be paid in installments as follows: $72,986.67 on the first day of April, 2008 and on the first day of each calendar month thereafter up to and including the first day of February, 2013; and
(c) The outstanding principal balance and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon and all other sums and fees due under this Note shall be due and payable on the first day of March, 2013 (the Maturity Date ).
Interest on the principal balance of this Note shall be calculated on a monthly basis using, as the agreed method of calculation, a three hundred sixty (360) day year consisting of twelve (12) months of thirty (30) days each; provided , however, that interest for a period of less than a full month shall be calculated by multiplying the actual number of days elapsed during such partial month by a daily rate based upon a three hundred sixty-five day year and the interest rate then due under this Note.
The term Applicable Interest Rate as used in this Note shall mean from the date of disbursement of the loan proceeds through and including the Maturity Date, a rate of Five and Forty-Four One-Hundredths Percent (5.44%) per annum.
If at any time Payee receives, from Maker or otherwise, any amount applicable to the Debt (hereinafter defined) which is less than all amounts due and payable at such time, Payee may apply that payment to amounts then due and payable in any manner and in any order determined by Payee, in Payees sole discretion. Payee shall, however, be under no obligation to accept any amount less than all amounts then due and payable. Maker agrees that neither Payees acceptance of a payment from Maker in an amount that is less than all amounts then due and payable nor Payees application of such payment shall constitute or be deemed to constitute either a waiver of the unpaid amounts or an accord and satisfaction. This provision shall control notwithstanding any inconsistent direction by Maker or any other obligor hereunder.
This Note is issued by Maker to Payee pursuant to a certain Loan Agreement by and among Maker and John Hancock of even date herewith (the Loan Agreement ) whereby John Hancock has agreed to make three (3) separate loans to Maker in the aggregate principal amount of $105,000,000.00. This Note evidences a portion of one of such loans, which loan is in the aggregate principal amount of $50,650,000.00 (the NY Loan ), as set forth in the Loan Agreement. Reference is hereby made to the Loan Agreement for a full statement of the rights of the holder of, and the nature and extent of the security for, this Note. The whole of the principal sum of this Note, together with all interest accrued and unpaid thereon and all other sums due under this Note, any other mortgage note evidencing any other portion of the NY Loan, and the Loan Agreement and any other instrument now or hereafter evidencing, securing, guaranteeing or executed in connection with the Loan Agreement or the indebtedness evidenced hereby (the Loan Documents ) (all such sums hereinafter collectively referred to as the Debt ) shall without notice become immediately due and payable at the option of Payee on the happening of an Event of Default as the same is defined in the Loan Agreement (hereinafter defined). All of the terms covenants and conditions contained in the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents are hereby made part of this Note to the same extent and with the same force as if they were fully set forth herein. In the event of any conflict between the terms of the Note and the terms of the Loan Agreement, the Mortgages and other security instruments, the terms of this Note shall govern, except as specifically provided herein or in the Loan Agreement.
2. Prepayment . Except as provided below, Maker may not prepay the loan evidenced by this Note in whole or in part.
On or after the end of the third (3 rd ) Loan Year (as hereinafter defined), on any scheduled payment date and subject to giving Payee not less than thirty (30) nor more than ninety (90) days prior written notice specifying the scheduled payment date on which prepayment is to be made (the Prepayment Date ), Maker may prepay the entire principal amount together with any and all accrued interest and other sums due under the Loan Documents, and subject to payment of a prepayment premium equal to the greater of:
(a) the positive amount, if any, equal to (i) the sum of the present values of all scheduled payments due under the Note from the Prepayment Date to and including the Maturity Date, minus (ii) the principal balance of the Note immediately prior to such prepayment; or
(b) 1.0% of the principal balance of the Note immediately prior to such prepayment.
All present values shall be calculated as of the Prepayment Date, using a discount rate, compounded monthly, equal to the yield rate plus twenty-five (25) basis points, converted to its monthly equivalent, of the United States Treasury Security having the closest maturity date to the Maturity Date of the Note as established in the Wall Street Journal or other business publication of general circulation five (5) business days before the Prepayment Date.
In the event that the yield rate on publicly traded United States Treasury Securities is not obtainable, then the nearest equivalent issue or index shall be selected, at Payees reasonable determination, and used to calculate the prepayment premium.
The loan evidenced by this Note will be open to prepayment without premium on any scheduled payment date during the last ninety (90) days of the term of this Note.
If any notice of prepayment is given, the principal balance of the loan evidenced by this Note and the other sums required pursuant to this Section 2 shall be due and payable on the Prepayment Date, unless Maker provides written notice to Payee that it is revoking said prepayment notice no later than five (5) business days prior to the Prepayment Date.
Provided no default exists under the Loan Documents, the above premium shall not be applicable to a prepayment resulting from Payees election to require insurance loss proceeds or condemnation awards to be applied to a payment of principal.
No partial prepayment shall be allowed.
The Loan Year is defined as any twelve month period commencing with the date on which the first monthly installment is due or any anniversary thereof.
3. Acceleration/Default . Maker acknowledges that the loan evidenced by this Note was made on the basis and assumption that Payee would receive the payments of principal and interest set forth herein for the full term of this Note. Therefore, whenever the Maturity Date of the loan evidenced by this Note has been accelerated by reason of an Event of Default under the Loan Documents, which Event of Default occurs prior to the time period, if any, in which prepayment is allowed and prior to the date on which the full amount of the balance of principal and interest then remaining unpaid shall be due, including an acceleration by reason of sale, conveyance, further encumbrance or other Event of Default (which acceleration shall be at Payees sole option), there shall be due, in addition to the outstanding principal balance, accrued interest and other sums due under the Loan Documents, a premium equal to the greater of:
(a) The sum obtained by adding:
(i) the positive amount, if any, equal to (aa) the sum of the present values of all scheduled payments due under this Note from the date of said payment to and including the Maturity Date of the Note, minus (bb) the then outstanding principal balance of the Note, and
(ii) 1.0 % of the then outstanding principal balance of the Note; or
(b) An amount equal to 10.0 % of the then outstanding principal balance of the Note.
All present values shall be calculated as of the date of said payment, using a discount rate, compounded monthly, equal to the yield rate, converted to its monthly equivalent, of the United States Treasury Security having the closest maturity date to the Maturity Date of the Note as established in the Wall Street Journal or other business publication of general circulation five (5) business days before the date of said payment. In the event that the yield rate on publicly traded United States Treasury Securities is not obtainable, then the nearest equivalent issue or index shall be selected, at Payees reasonable determination, and used to calculate the prepayment premium.
If an Event of Default occurs on or after the date on which prepayment is permitted, then in lieu of the above premium, payment of a premium calculated in the manner set forth in Section 2 hereof shall be required.
A tender of the amount necessary to satisfy the entire indebtedness, paid at any time following such Event of Default or acceleration, including at a foreclosure sale or during any subsequent redemption period, if any, shall be deemed a voluntary prepayment, and, at Payees option, such payment shall include a premium as described above.
4. Default Rate . Maker does hereby agree that upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and while any Event of Default exists, including, without limitation, the failure of Maker to pay the Debt in full on the Maturity Date, Payee shall be entitled to receive and Maker shall pay interest on the entire unpaid principal sum, effective from the date of Makers initial default with respect to such Event of Default without allowance for any applicable notice and/or grace period, at a rate (the Default Rate ) equal to seven percent (7%) above the Applicable Interest Rate, but in no event to exceed the highest rate permitted under the laws of the jurisdiction where the property secured by the Mortgage is situated. Notwithstanding the provisions of any statute or regulation to the contrary, the Default Rate shall apply to all sums evidenced hereby upon, during and after an Event of Default as provided herein, and also after entry of a judgment or judgments against Maker (whether in a mortgage foreclosure action or otherwise), and whether or not any event described in Paragraph 3.12 of the Loan Agreement hereof has occurred. This charge shall be added to the Debt, and shall be deemed secured by the Mortgage. This clause, however, shall not be construed as an agreement or privilege to extend the date of the payment of the Debt, nor as a waiver of any other right or remedy available to Payee by reason of the occurrence of any Event of Default.
5. Late Charge . If any monthly principal and interest payment payable under this Note is not paid in full within five (5) days of the date on which it is due, Maker shall pay to Payee an amount equal to the lesser of five percent (5%) of such unpaid sum or the maximum amount permitted by applicable law to defray the expenses incurred by Payee in handling and processing such delinquent payment and to compensate Payee for the loss of the use of such delinquent payment and such amount shall be secured by the Loan Documents.
6. Amendment and Restatement; Security for Loan. This Note is secured by, among other things, the Mortgage and certain other Loan Documents as set forth in the Loan Agreement. The term Mortgage as used in this Note shall mean that certain Mortgage Deed, Assignment of Leases and Rents, Security Agreement and Fixture Filing dated the date hereof in the principal sum of the NY Loan given by Maker for the use and benefit of Payee covering certain premises located at 103 Fairview Park Drive, 412 Fairview Park Drive, 401 Fieldcrest Drive, 404 Fieldcrest Drive, 199 Ridgewood Drive, and 203 Ridgewood Drive in the Town of Greenburgh, and at 36 Midland Avenue, 100-110 Midland Avenue, 112 Midland Avenue, and 8 Slater Street in the Village of Port Chester, all in the County of Westchester and State of New York, as more particularly described therein.
7. Compliance with Law . It is expressly stipulated and agreed to be the intent of Maker and Payee at all times to comply with applicable state law or applicable United States federal law (to the extent that it permits Payee to contract for, charge, take, reserve or receive a greater amount of interest than under state law) and that this paragraph shall control every other covenant and agreement in this Note, the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents. If the applicable law (state or federal) is ever judicially interpreted so as to render usurious any amount called for under this Note or any of the other Loan Documents, or contracted for, charged, taken, reserved or received with respect to the Debt, or if Payees exercise of the option to accelerate the Maturity Date, or if any prepayment by Maker results in Makers having paid any interest in excess of that permitted by applicable law, then it is Payees express intent that all excess amounts theretofore collected by Payee shall be credited on the principal balance of this Note and all other Debt and the provisions of this Note, and the other Loan Documents immediately be deemed reformed and the amounts thereafter collectible hereunder and thereunder reduced, without the necessity of the execution of any new documents, so as to comply with the applicable law, but so as to permit the recovery of the fullest amount otherwise called for hereunder or thereunder. All sums paid or agreed to be paid to Payee for the use or forbearance of the Debt shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread throughout the full stated term of the Debt until payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of the Debt does not exceed the maximum lawful rate from time to time in effect and applicable to the Debt for so long as the Debt is outstanding. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or in any of the other Loan Documents, it is not the intention of Payee to accelerate the maturity of any interest that has not accrued at the time of such acceleration or to collect unearned interest at the time of such acceleration.
8. Amendments . This Note may not be modified, amended, waived, extended, changed, discharged or terminated orally or by any act or failure to act on the part of Maker or Payee, but only by an agreement in writing signed by the party against whom enforcement of any modification, amendment, waiver, extension, change, discharge or termination is sought.
9. Joint and Several Liability . If Maker consists of more than one person or party, the obligations and liabilities of each such person or party shall be joint and several.
10. Construction . Whenever used, the singular number shall include the plural, the plural the singular, and the words Payee and Maker shall include their respective successors, assigns, heirs, executors and administrators.
11. Waivers . Maker and all others who may become liable for the payment of all or any part of the Debt do hereby severally waive presentment and demand for payment, notice of dishonor, protest, notice of protest and non-payment and notice of intent to accelerate the maturity hereof (and of such acceleration). No release of any security for the Debt or extension of time for payment of this Note or any installment hereof and no alteration, amendment or waiver of any provision of this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or any other Loan Documents made by agreement between Payee and any other person or party shall release, modify, amend, waive, extend, change, discharge, terminate or affect the liability of Maker and any other who may become liable for the payment of all or any part of the Debt, under this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or any other Loan Documents.
12. Authority . Maker (and the undersigned representative of Maker, if any) represents that Maker has full power, authority and legal right to execute, deliver and perform its obligations pursuant to this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents and that this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents constitute valid and binding obligations of Maker.
13. Time . Time is of the essence of this Note.
14. Replacement Note . In the event of the loss, theft or destruction of this Note, upon Makers receipt of a reasonably satisfactory indemnification agreement executed in favor of Maker by Payee or in the event of the mutilation of this Note, upon the surrender of the mutilated Note by Payee to Maker, Maker shall execute and deliver to Payee a new mortgage note in form and content identical to this Note in lieu of the lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note.
15. Notice . All notices required to be given pursuant hereto shall be given in the manner specified in the Loan Agreement directed to the parties at their respective addresses as provided therein.
16. Costs and Expenses . Maker shall pay all expenses and costs, including fees and out-of-pocket expenses of attorneys and expert witnesses and costs of investigation incurred by Payee as a result of any Event of Default or in connection with efforts to collect any amount due under this Note or to enforce the provisions of any of the Loan Documents, including those incurred in post-judgment collection efforts and in any bankruptcy proceeding (including any action for relief from the automatic stay of any bankruptcy proceeding) or judicial or non-judicial foreclosure proceeding.
17. Forbearance . Any forbearance by Payee in exercising any right or remedy under this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or any other Loan Document or otherwise afforded by applicable law shall not be a waiver of or preclude the exercise of that or any other right or remedy. The acceptance by Payee of any payment after the due date of such payment or in an amount which is less than the required payment shall not be a waiver of Payees right to require prompt payment when due of all other payments or to exercise any right or remedy with respect to any failure to make prompt payment. Enforcement by Payee of any security for Makers obligations under this Note shall not constitute an election by Payee of remedies so as to preclude the exercise of any other right or remedy available to Payee.
18. Section Headings . The Section headings inserted in this Note have been included for convenience only and are not intended and shall not be construed to limit or define in any way the substance of any section contained herein.

1. Payment of Principal and Interest . Principal and interest shall be paid as follows:
(a) If the loan proceeds are not disbursed on the first day of a month, then interest only at the Applicable Interest Rate from and including the date of disbursement of the loan proceeds to the first day of the month following such disbursement shall be due and payable in advance on the date of such disbursement;
(b) Interest only is to be paid in installments as follows: $16,640.00 on the first day of April, 2008 and on the first day of each calendar month thereafter up to and including the first day of February, 2011; and
(c) The outstanding principal balance and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon and all other sums and fees due under this Note shall be due and payable on the first day of March, 2011 (the Maturity Date ).
Interest on the principal balance of this Note shall be calculated on a monthly basis using, as the agreed method of calculation, a three hundred sixty (360) day year consisting of twelve (12) months of thirty (30) days each; provided , however , that interest for a period of less than a full month shall be calculated by multiplying the actual number of days elapsed during such partial month by a daily rate based upon a three hundred sixty-five day year and the interest rate then due under this Note.
The term Applicable Interest Rate as used in this Note shall mean from the date of disbursement of the loan proceeds through and including the Maturity Date, a rate of Five and Twelve One-Hundredths Percent (5.12%) per annum.
If at any time Payee receives, from Maker or otherwise, any amount applicable to the Debt (hereinafter defined) which is less than all amounts due and payable at such time, Payee may apply that payment to amounts then due and payable in any manner and in any order determined by Payee, in Payees sole discretion. Payee shall, however, be under no obligation to accept any amount less than all amounts then due and payable. Maker agrees that neither Payees acceptance of a payment from Maker in an amount that is less than all amounts then due and payable nor Payees application of such payment shall constitute or be deemed to constitute either a waiver of the unpaid amounts or an accord and satisfaction. This provision shall control notwithstanding any inconsistent direction by Maker or any other obligor hereunder.
This Note is issued by Maker to Payee pursuant to a certain Loan Agreement by and among Maker and John Hancock of even date herewith (the Loan Agreement ) whereby John Hancock has agreed to make three (3) separate loans to Maker in the aggregate principal amount of $105,000,000.00. This Note evidences a portion of one of such loans, which loan is in the aggregate principal amount of $50,650,000.00 (the NY Loan ), as set forth in the Loan Agreement. Reference is hereby made to the Loan Agreement for a full statement of the rights of the holder of, and the nature and extent of the security for, this Note. The whole of the principal sum of this Note, together with all interest accrued and unpaid thereon and all other sums due under this Note, any other mortgage note evidencing any other portion of the NY Loan, and the Loan Agreement and any other instrument now or hereafter evidencing, securing, guaranteeing or executed in connection with the Loan Agreement or the indebtedness evidenced hereby (the Loan Documents ) (all such sums hereinafter collectively referred to as the Debt ) shall without notice become immediately due and payable at the option of Payee on the happening of an Event of Default as the same is defined in the Loan Agreement (hereinafter defined). All of the terms, covenants and conditions contained in the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents are hereby made part of this Note to the same extent and with the same force as if they were fully set forth herein. In the event of any conflict between the terms of the Note and the terms of the Loan Agreement, the Mortgages and other security instruments, the terms of this Note shall govern, except as specifically provided herein or in the Loan Agreement.
2. Prepayment . Except as provided below, Maker may not prepay the loan evidenced by this Note in whole or in part.
On or after the end of the first 1.5 Loan Years (as hereinafter defined), on any scheduled payment date and subject to giving Payee not less than thirty (30) nor more than ninety (90) days prior written notice specifying the scheduled payment date on which prepayment is to be made (the Prepayment Date ). Maker may prepay the entire principal amount together with any and all accrued interest and other sums due under the Loan Documents, and subject to payment of a prepayment premium equal to the greater of:
(a) the positive amount, if any, equal to (i) the sum of the present values of all scheduled payments due under the Note from the Prepayment Date to and including the Maturity Date, minus (ii) the principal balance of the Note immediately prior to such prepayment; or
(b) 1.0% of the principal balance of the Note immediately prior to such prepayment.
All present values shall be calculated as of the Prepayment Date, using a discount rate, compounded monthly, equal to the yield rate plus twenty-five (25) basis points, converted to its monthly equivalent, of the United States Treasury Security having the closest maturity date to the Maturity Date of the Note as established in the Wall Street Journal or other business publication of general circulation five (5) business days before the Prepayment Date.
In the event that the yield rate on publicly traded United States Treasury Securities is not obtainable, then the nearest equivalent issue or index shall be selected, at Payees reasonable determination, and used to calculate the prepayment premium.
The loan evidenced by this Note will be open to prepayment without premium on any scheduled payment date during the last ninety (90) days of the term of this Note.
If any notice of prepayment is given, the principal balance of the loan evidenced by this Note and the other sums required pursuant to this Section 2 shall be due and payable on the Prepayment Date, unless Maker provides written notice to Payee that it is revoking said prepayment notice no later than five (5) business days prior to the Prepayment Date.
Provided no default exists under the Loan Documents, the above premium shall not be applicable to a prepayment resulting from Payees election to require insurance loss proceeds or condemnation awards to be applied to a payment of principal.
No partial prepayment shall be allowed.
The Loan Year is defined as any twelve month period commencing with the date on which the first monthly installment is due or any anniversary thereof.
3. Acceleration/Default . Maker acknowledges that the loan evidenced by this Note was made on the basis and assumption that Payee would receive the payments of principal and interest set forth herein for the full term of this Note. Therefore, whenever the Maturity Date of the loan evidenced by this Note has been accelerated by reason of an Event of Default under the Loan Documents, which Event of Default occurs prior to the time period, if any, in which prepayment is allowed and prior to the date on which the full amount of the balance of principal and interest then remaining unpaid shall be due, including an acceleration by reason of sale, conveyance, further encumbrance or other Event of Default (which acceleration shall be at Payees sole option), there shall be due, in addition to the outstanding principal balance, accrued interest and other sums due under the Loan Documents, a premium equal to the greater of:
(a) The sum obtained by adding:
(i) the positive amount, if any, equal to (aa) the sum of the present values of all scheduled payments due under this Note from the date of said payment to and including the Maturity Date of the Note, minus (bb) the then outstanding principal balance of the Note, and
(ii) 1.0 % of the then outstanding principal balance of the Note; or
(b) An amount equal to 10.0 % of the then outstanding principal balance of the Note.
All present values shall be calculated as of the date of said payment, using a discount rate, compounded monthly, equal to the yield rate, converted to its monthly equivalent, of the United States Treasury Security having the closest maturity date to the Maturity Date of the Note as established in the Wall Street Journal or other business publication of general circulation five (5) business days before the date of said payment. In the event that the yield rate on publicly traded United States Treasury Securities is not obtainable, then the nearest equivalent issue or index shall be selected, at Payees reasonable determination, and used to calculate the prepayment premium.
If an Event of Default occurs on or after the date on which prepayment is permitted, then in lieu of the above premium, payment of a premium calculated in the manner set forth in Section 2 hereof shall be required.
A tender of the amount necessary to satisfy the entire indebtedness, paid at any time following such Event of Default or acceleration, including at a foreclosure sale or during any subsequent redemption period, if any, shall be deemed a voluntary prepayment, and, at Payees option, such payment shall include a premium as described above.
4. Default Rate . Maker does hereby agree that upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and while any Event of Default exists, including, without limitation, the failure of Maker to pay the Debt in full on the Maturity Date, Payee shall be entitled to receive and Maker shall pay interest on the entire unpaid principal sum, effective from the date of Makers initial default with respect to such Event of Default without allowance for any applicable notice and/or grace period, at a rate (the Default Rate ) equal to seven percent (7%) above the Applicable Interest Rate, but in no event to exceed the highest rate permitted under the laws of the jurisdiction where the property secured by the Mortgage is situated. Notwithstanding the provisions of any statute or regulation to the contrary, the Default Rate shall apply to all sums evidenced hereby upon, during and after an Event of Default as provided herein, and also after entry of a judgment or judgments against Maker (whether in a mortgage foreclosure action or otherwise), and whether or not any event described in Paragraph 3.12 of the Loan Agreement hereof has occurred. This charge shall be added to the Debt, and shall be deemed secured by the Mortgage. This clause, however, shall not be construed as an agreement or privilege to extend the date of the payment of the Debt, nor as a waiver of any other right or remedy available to Payee by reason of the occurrence of any Event of Default.
5. Late Charge . If any monthly principal and interest payment payable under this Note is not paid in full within five (5) days of the date on which it is due, Maker shall pay to Payee an amount equal to the lesser of five percent (5%) of such unpaid sum or the maximum amount permitted by applicable law to defray the expenses incurred by Payee in handling and processing such delinquent payment and to compensate Payee for the loss of the use of such delinquent payment and such amount shall be secured by the Loan Documents.
6. Amendment and Restatement; Security for Loan. This Note is secured by, among other things, the Mortgage and certain other Loan Documents as set forth in the Loan Agreement. The term Mortgage as used in this Note shall mean that certain Mortgage Deed, Assignment of Leases and Rents, Security Agreement and Fixture Filing dated the date hereof in the principal sum of the NY Loan given by Maker for the use and benefit of Payee covering certain premises located 103 Fairview Park Drive, 412 Fairview Park Drive, 401 Fieldcrest Drive, 404 Fieldcrest Drive, 199 Ridgewood Drive, and 203 Ridgewood Drive in the Town of Greenburgh, and at 36 Midland Avenue, 100-110 Midland Avenue, 112 Midland Avenue, and 8 Slater Street in the Village of Port Chester, all in the County of Westchester and State of New York, as more particularly described therein.
7. Compliance with Law . It is expressly stipulated and agreed to be the intent of Maker and Payee at all times to comply with applicable state law or applicable United States federal law (to the extent that it permits Payee to contract for, charge, take, reserve or receive a greater amount of interest than under state law) and that this paragraph shall control every other covenant and agreement in this Note, the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents. If the applicable law (state or federal) is ever judicially interpreted so as to render usurious any amount called for under this Note or any of the other Loan Documents, or contracted for, charged, taken, reserved or received with respect to the Debt, or if Payees exercise of the option to accelerate the Maturity Date, or if any prepayment by Maker results in Makers having paid any interest in excess of that permitted by applicable law, then it is Payees express intent that all excess amounts theretofore collected by Payee shall be credited on the principal balance of this Note and all other Debt and the provisions of this Note, and the other Loan Documents immediately be deemed reformed and the amounts thereafter collectible hereunder and thereunder reduced, without the necessity of the execution of any new documents, so as to comply with the applicable law, but so as to permit the recovery of the fullest amount otherwise called for hereunder or thereunder. All sums paid or agreed to be paid to Payee for the use or forbearance of the Debt shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread throughout the full stated term of the Debt until payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of the Debt does not exceed the maximum lawful rate from time to time in effect and applicable to the Debt for so long as the Debt is outstanding. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or in any of the other Loan Documents, it is not the intention of Payee to accelerate the maturity of any interest that has not accrued at the time of such acceleration or to collect unearned interest at the time of such acceleration.
8. Amendments . This Note may not be modified, amended, waived, extended, changed, discharged or terminated orally or by any act or failure to act on the part of Maker or Payee, but only by an agreement in writing signed by the party against whom enforcement of any modification, amendment, waiver, extension, change, discharge or termination is sought.
9. Joint and Several Liability . If Maker consists of more than one person or party, the obligations and liabilities of each such person or party shall be joint and several.
10. Construction . Whenever used, the singular number shall include the plural, the plural the singular, and the words Payee and Maker shall include their respective successors, assigns, heirs, executors and administrators.
11. Waivers . Maker and all others who may become liable for the payment of all or any part of the Debt do hereby severally waive presentment and demand for payment, notice of dishonor, protest, notice of protest and non-payment and notice of intent to accelerate the maturity hereof (and of such acceleration). No release of any security for the Debt or extension of time for payment of this Note or any installment hereof and no alteration, amendment or waiver of any provision of this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or any other Loan Documents made by agreement between Payee and any other person or party shall release, modify, amend, waive, extend, change, discharge, terminate or affect the liability of Maker and any other who may become liable for the payment of all or any part of the Debt, under this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or any other Loan Documents.
12. Authority . Maker (and the undersigned representative of Maker, if any) represents that Maker has full power, authority and legal right to execute, deliver and perform its obligations pursuant to this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents and that this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents constitute valid and binding obligations of Maker.
13. Time . Time is of the essence of this Note.
14. Replacement Note . In the event of the loss, theft or destruction of this Note, upon Makers receipt of a reasonably satisfactory indemnification agreement executed in favor of Maker by Payee or in the event of the mutilation of this Note, upon the surrender of the mutilated Note by Payee to Maker, Maker shall execute and deliver to Payee a new mortgage note in form and content identical to this Note in lieu of the lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note.
15. Notice . All notices required to be given pursuant hereto shall be given in the manner specified in the Loan Agreement directed to the parties at their respective addresses as provided therein.
16. Costs and Expenses . Maker shall pay all expenses and costs, including fees and out-of-pocket expenses of attorneys and expert witnesses and costs of investigation incurred by Payee as a result of any Event of Default or in connection with efforts to collect any amount due under this Note or to enforce the provisions of any of the Loan Documents, including those incurred in post-judgment collection efforts and in any bankruptcy proceeding (including any action for relief from the automatic stay of any bankruptcy proceeding) or judicial or non-judicial foreclosure proceeding.
17. Forbearance . Any forbearance by Payee in exercising any right or remedy under this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or any other Loan Document or otherwise afforded by applicable law shall not be a waiver of or preclude the exercise of that or any other right or remedy. The acceptance by Payee of any payment after the due date of such payment or in an amount which is less than the required payment shall not be a waiver of Payees right to require prompt payment when due of all other payments or to exercise any right or remedy with respect to any failure to make prompt payment. Enforcement by Payee of any security for Makers obligations under this Note shall not constitute an election by Payee of remedies so as to preclude the exercise of any other right or remedy available to Payee.
18. Section Headings . The Section headings inserted in this Note have been included for convenience only and are not intended and shall not be construed to limit or define in any way the substance of any section contained herein.
19. Limitation on Liability . Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, but subject to the obligations of Section 6.6 of the Loan Agreement, any claim based on or in respect of any liability of Maker under this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or any other Loan Document shall be enforced only against the Mortgaged Property (as such term is defined in the Mortgage) and any other collateral now or hereafter given to secure this Note and not against any other assets, properties or funds of Maker; provided , however , that the liability of Maker for loss, costs or damage arising out of the matters described in the subsections below (collectively, Non-Recourse Carveout Obligations ) shall not be limited solely to the Mortgaged Property and other collateral now or hereafter given to secure this Note but shall include all of the assets, properties and funds of Maker: (i) fraud, misrepresentation and waste; (ii) any rents, issues or profits collected more than one (1) month in advance of their due dates; (iii) any misapplication of rents, issues or profits, security deposits and any other payments from tenants or occupants (including, without limitation, lease termination fees), insurance proceeds, condemnation awards or other sums of a similar nature; (iv) liability under environmental covenants, conditions and indemnities contained in the Loan Agreement, including, but not limited to, Section 3.9, the Mortgage and in any separate environmental indemnity agreements; (v) personalty or fixtures removed or allowed to be removed by or on behalf of Maker and not replaced by items of equal or greater value or functionality than the personalty or fixtures so removed; (vi) failure to pay taxes, assessments or ground rents prior to delinquency, or to pay charges for labor, materials or other charges which can create liens on any portion of the Mortgaged Property before such charges become a lien on such Mortgaged Property or any portion thereof and any sums expended by Payee in the performance of or compliance with the obligations of Maker under the Loan Documents, including, without limitation, sums expended to pay taxes or assessments or hazard insurance premiums or bills for utilities or other services or products for the benefit of the Mortgaged Property; (vii) the unauthorized sale, conveyance or transfer of title to the Mortgaged Property or encumbrance of the Mortgaged Property; (viii) the failure of Maker to maintain its status as a single purpose , bankruptcy-remote entity pursuant to its organizational documents and the Loan Documents; (ix) a violation of the provisions of Section 3.7(h) of the Loan Agreement; (x) the filing of any action to partition the Mortgaged Property or any Individual Property (as defined in the Loan Agreement) or the occurrence of any such partition or any sale pursuant to any such action; (xi) the transfer of any TIC (as defined in the Loan Agreement) interests in any of the Mortgaged Property or any Individual Property, or any direct or indirect interests in the holder of any such TIC interest, other than as expressly permitted under Section 3.4(h) of the Loan Agreement; (xii) the termination, cancellation or non-renewal of an Approved Manager (as defined in the Loan Agreement) or any other failure of an Approved Manager to serve as manager of any Permitted TIC (as defined in the Loan Agreement); (xiii) the failure of any Approved Manager to meet the Management Requirements (as defined in the Loan Agreement); and (xiv) attorneys fees, court costs and other expenses incurred by Payee in connection with enforcement of its remedies under the Loan Documents, including, but not limited to, in connection with any bankruptcy proceeding or reorganization brought by or against Maker or any Principal (as defined in the Loan Agreement) of Maker.
Nothing herein shall be deemed (w) to be a waiver of any right which Payee may have under any bankruptcy law of the United States or the state where the Mortgaged Property is located including, but not limited to, Section 506(a), 506(b), 1111(b) or any other provisions of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code to file a claim for the full amount of the indebtedness secured by the Mortgage or to require that all collateral securing the indebtedness secured hereby shall continue to secure all of the indebtedness owing to Payee in accordance with this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents; (x) to impair the validity of the indebtedness secured by the Mortgage; (y) to impair the right of Payee as mortgagee or secured party to commence an action to foreclose any lien or security interest; or (z) to modify, diminish or discharge the liability of any guarantor under any guaranty or of any indemnitor under any indemnity agreement.

Mortgagor has good and marketable title to the Mortgaged Property; Mortgagor has the right to mortgage, give, grant, bargain, sell, alienate, enfeoff, convey, confirm, pledge, lease, assign, hypothecate and grant a security interest in the Mortgaged Property; Mortgagor possesses an indefeasible fee estate in the Real Property; and Mortgagor owns the Mortgaged Property free and clear of all liens, encumbrances and charges whatsoever except those exceptions shown in the title insurance policy insuring the lien of this Mortgage (this Mortgage and the liens, encumbrances and charges shown as exceptions in such title policy, hereinafter collectively referred to as the Permitted Encumbrances ). Mortgagor shall forever warrant, defend and preserve such title and the validity and priority of the lien of this Mortgage and shall forever warrant and defend the same to Mortgagee against the claims of all persons whomsoever.
3. Condemnation . Mortgagor shall promptly give Mortgagee written notice of the actual or threatened commencement of any condemnation or eminent domain proceeding and shall deliver to Mortgagee copies of any and all papers served in connection with such proceedings. Following the occurrence of a condemnation, Mortgagor, regardless of whether an award is available, shall promptly proceed to restore, repair, replace or rebuild the Improvements to the extent practicable to be of at least equal value and of substantially the same character as prior to such condemnation, all to be effected in accordance with applicable law. Notwithstanding any taking by any public or quasi-public authority through eminent domain or otherwise (including but not limited to any transfer made in lieu of or in anticipation of the exercise of such taking), Mortgagor shall continue to pay the Indebtedness at the time and in the manner provided for its payment in the Note, in this Mortgage and the other Loan Documents and the Indebtedness shall not be reduced until any award or payment therefor shall have been actually received after expenses of collection and applied by Mortgagee to the discharge of the Indebtedness.
Mortgagor shall cause the award or payment made in any condemnation or eminent domain proceeding, which is payable to Mortgagor, to be paid directly to Mortgagee. Mortgagee may, at Mortgagees election, use the award in any one or more of the following ways: (a) apply any such award or payment (for purposes of this Paragraph 3, the award or payment that may be made in any condemnation or eminent domain proceeding shall mean the entire award allocated to Mortgagor in any capacity) to the discharge of the Indebtedness whether or not then due and payable (such application to be without prepayment fee or premium, except that if an Event of Default, or an event which with notice and/or the passage of time, or both, would constitute an Event of Default, has occurred, then such application shall be subject to the applicable premium computed in accordance with the Note), (b) use the same or any part thereof to fulfill any of the covenants contained herein as the Mortgagee may determine, (c) use the same or any part thereof to replace or restore the Mortgaged Property to a condition satisfactory to the Mortgagee, or (d) release the same to the Mortgagor. If the Mortgaged Property is sold, through foreclosure or otherwise, prior to the receipt by Mortgagee of such award or payment, Mortgagee shall have the right, whether or not a deficiency judgment on the Note shall have been sought, recovered or denied, to receive said award or payment or a portion thereof sufficient to pay the Indebtedness.
4. Leases and Rents .
(a) Mortgagor does hereby absolutely and unconditionally assign to Mortgagee its right, title and interest in all current and future Leases and Rents and all proceeds from the sale, cancellation, surrender or other disposition of the Leases, it being intended by Mortgagor that this assignment constitutes a present, absolute assignment and not an assignment for additional security only. Such assignment to Mortgagee shall not be construed to bind Mortgagee to the performance of any of the covenants, conditions or provisions contained in any such Lease or otherwise to impose any obligation upon Mortgagee. Mortgagor agrees to execute and deliver to Mortgagee such additional instruments in form and substance satisfactory to Mortgagee, as may hereafter be requested by Mortgagee to further evidence and confirm such assignment. Nevertheless, subject to the terms of this Paragraph 4, Mortgagee grants to Mortgagor a revocable license to operate and manage the Mortgaged Property and to collect the Rents. Mortgagor shall hold the Rents, or a portion thereof sufficient to discharge all current sums due on the Indebtedness, in trust for the benefit of Mortgagee for use in the payment of such sums. The grant of the foregoing license is subject to the provisions of Paragraph 1 of the separate Assignment of Leases and Rents of even date herewith granted by the Mortgagor as Assignor to the Mortgagee as Assignee with respect to the Mortgaged Property ( Assignment of Leases and Rents ). Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the license granted to Mortgagor herein shall be automatically revoked and Mortgagee shall immediately be entitled to possession of all Rents, whether or not Mortgagee enters upon or takes control of the Mortgaged Property. Mortgagee is hereby granted and assigned by Mortgagor the right, at its option, upon the revocation of the license granted herein to enter upon the Mortgaged Property in person, by agent or by court-appointed receiver to collect the Rents. Any Rents collected after the revocation of the license herein granted may be applied toward payment of the Indebtedness in such priority and proportion as Mortgagee in its discretion shall deem proper. It is further the intent of Mortgagor and Mortgagee that the Rents hereby absolutely assigned are no longer, during the term of this Mortgage, property of Mortgagor or property of any estate of Mortgagor as defined in Section 541 of the Bankruptcy Code and shall not constitute collateral, cash or otherwise, of Mortgagor. The term Rents as used herein shall mean the gross rents without deduction or offsets of any kind.
(b) All Leases executed after the date of this Mortgage shall provide that they are subordinate to this Mortgage and that the lessee agrees to attorn to Mortgagee; provided, however, that nothing herein shall affect Mortgagees right to designate from time to time any one or more Leases as being superior to this Mortgage and Mortgagor shall execute and deliver to Mortgagee and shall cause to be executed and delivered to Mortgagee from each tenant under such Lease any instrument or agreement as Mortgagee may deem necessary to make such Lease superior to this Mortgage. Upon request, Mortgagor shall promptly furnish Mortgagee with executed copies of all Leases.
(c) Mortgagor shall not, without the prior consent of Mortgagee, (i) lease all or any part of the Mortgaged Property, (ii) alter or change the terms of any Lease or cancel or terminate, abridge or otherwise modify the terms of any Lease, (iii) consent to any assignment of or subletting under any Lease not in accordance with its terms, (iv) cancel, terminate, abridge or otherwise modify any guaranty of any Lease or the terms thereof, (v) collect or accept prepayments of installments of Rents for a period of more than one (1) month in advance or (vi) further assign the whole or any part of the Leases or the Rents; provided, however, that such action as described in subsections (i)-(iv) above may be taken without Mortgagees consent for any Lease which is for not more than five percent (5%) of the total net rentable square feet of space then occupied or available for occupancy at the Mortgaged Property provides for, an annual rent of not more than five percent (5%) of the total rentable income then being paid with respect to all of the Mortgaged Property, requires tenant to pay market rent for the entire term of said Lease, and has a term (including the renewal or extension term) of not more than 20 years (a lease satisfying those criteria shall be referred to as a Small Lease ) so long as the taking of such action is in the ordinary course of Mortgagors business and that such action is still subject to Paragraph 1 of the separate Assignment of Leases and Rents pertaining to Termination Amounts (as defined therein).
(d) With respect to each Lease, Mortgagor shall (i) observe and perform each and every provision thereof on the lessors part to be fulfilled or performed under each Lease and not do or permit to be done anything to impair the value of the Lease as security for the Loan, including surrender or voluntary termination of any Lease, (ii) promptly send to Mortgagee copies of all notices of default which Mortgagor shall send or receive thereunder, (iii) enforce all of the terms, covenants and conditions contained in such Lease upon the lessees part to be performed, short of termination thereof, (iv) execute and deliver, at the request of Mortgagee, all such further assurances, confirmations and assignments in connection with the Mortgaged Property as Mortgagee shall, from time to time, require and (v) upon request, furnish Mortgagee with executed copies of all Leases; provided, however, the notice to Mortgagee referenced in subsection (ii) above and the restriction on termination of a Lease in connection with the enforcement of its terms, covenants and conditions set forth in (iii) above shall not be required or apply, as the case may be, for any Small Lease. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default under this Mortgage, Mortgagor shall pay monthly in advance to Mortgagee, or any receiver appointed to collect the Rents, the fair and reasonable rental value for the use and occupation of the Mortgaged Property or part of the Mortgaged Property as may be occupied by Mortgagor or any one Mortgagor and upon default in any such payment Mortgagor shall vacate and surrender possession of the Mortgaged Property to Mortgagee or to such receiver and, in default thereof, Mortgagor may be evicted by summary proceedings or otherwise.
(e) All security deposits of tenants, whether held in cash or any other form, shall not be commingled with any other funds of Mortgagor and, if cash, shall be deposited by Mortgagor at such commercial or savings bank or banks as may be reasonably satisfactory to Mortgagee. Any bond or other instrument which Mortgagor is permitted to hold in lieu of cash security deposits under any applicable legal requirements shall be maintained in full force and effect in the full amount of such deposits unless replaced by cash deposits as hereinabove described, shall be issued by an institution reasonably satisfactory to Mortgagee, shall, if permitted pursuant to any legal requirements, name Mortgagee as payee or Mortgagee thereunder (or at Mortgagees option, be fully assignable to Mortgagee) and shall, in all respects, comply with any applicable legal requirements and otherwise be reasonably satisfactory to Mortgagee. Mortgagor shall, upon request, provide Mortgagee with evidence reasonably satisfactory to Mortgagee of Mortgagors compliance with the foregoing. Following the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, Mortgagor shall, upon Mortgagees request, if permitted by any applicable legal requirements, turn over to Mortgagee the security deposits (and any interest theretofore earned thereon) with respect to all or any portion of the Mortgaged Property, to be held by Mortgagee subject to the terms of the Leases.
5. Maintenance and Use of Mortgaged Property . Mortgagor shall, at its sole cost and expense, keep and maintain the Mortgaged Property, including, without limitation, parking lots and recreational and landscaped portions thereof, if any, in good order and condition. The Improvements and the Equipment shall not be diminished, removed, demolished or materially altered (except for normal replacement of Equipment) and Mortgagor shall not erect any new buildings, structures or building additions on the Mortgaged Property without the prior consent of Mortgagee. So long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Mortgagor shall have the right at any time and from time to time after providing Mortgagee with written notice to make or cause to be made reasonable alterations of and additions to the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof, provided that any alteration or addition (i) shall not change the general character of the Mortgaged Property or reduce the fair market value thereof below its value immediately before such alteration or addition, or impair the usefulness of the Mortgaged Property, (ii) is effected with due diligence, in a good and workmanlike manner and in compliance with all applicable laws and with all provisions of any insurance policy covering or applicable to the Mortgaged Property and all requirements of the issuers thereof, (iii) is promptly and fully paid for, or caused to be paid for, by Mortgagor, (iv) the estimated cost of such alteration or addition does not exceed five percent (5%) of the original principal amount of the Loan, and (v) is made under the supervision of a qualified architect or engineer, (vi) shall not violate the terms of any Leases, and (vii) upon completion, Mortgagor shall provide Mortgagee with (aa) a satisfactory final improvement survey if the footprint of the building has been altered, (bb), any final occupancy permit which may be required for the Improvements, (cc) all other governmental permits, certificates and approvals and all other permits, certificates and approvals of fire underwriters which are required with respect to the alterations and additions and the use and occupancy thereof, and shall furnish true copies thereof to Mortgagee, and (dd) final lien waivers from all contractors, subcontractors and materialmen.
Mortgagor shall promptly comply with all laws, orders and ordinances affecting the Mortgaged Property, or the use thereof, provided, however, that nothing in the foregoing clause shall require Mortgagor to comply with any such law, order or ordinance so long as Mortgagor shall in good faith, after notice to, but without cost or expense to, Mortgagee, contest the validity of such law, order or ordinance by appropriate legal proceedings and in accordance with all applicable law, which proceedings must operate to prevent (i) the enforcement thereof, (ii) the payment of any fine, charge or penalty, (iii) the sale or forfeiture of the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof, (iv) the lien of this Mortgage and the priority thereof from being impaired, (v) the imposition of criminal liability on Mortgagee and (vi) the imposition, unless stayed, of civil liability on Mortgagee; provided that during such contest Mortgagor shall, at the option of Mortgagee, provide cash, bonds or other security satisfactory to Mortgagee, indemnifying and protecting Mortgagee against any liability, loss or injury by reason of such non-compliance or contest, and provided further, that such contest shall be promptly and diligently prosecuted by and at the expense of Mortgagor. Mortgagor shall promptly, at its sole cost and expense, repair, replace or rebuild any part of the Mortgaged Property which may be destroyed by any casualty, or become damaged, worn or dilapidated. Mortgagor shall not commit any waste at the Mortgaged Property. Mortgagor shall not initiate, join in, acquiesce in or consent to any change in any private restrictive covenant, zoning law or other public or private restriction, limiting or defining the uses which may be made of the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof. If under applicable zoning provisions the use of all or any portion of the Mortgaged Property is or shall become a nonconforming use, Mortgagor will not cause or permit such nonconforming use to be discontinued or abandoned without the express consent of Mortgagee. Mortgagor covenants and agrees that it shall operate the Mortgaged Property at all times as a first-class office, warehouse and industrial facility.
6. Estoppel Certificates .
(a) Mortgagor, within ten (10) business days after request by Mortgagee, shall use commercially reasonable efforts to furnish Mortgagee from time to time (but not more often than annually, except during the existence of an Event of Default) with a statement, duly acknowledged and certified, setting forth (i) the amount of the original principal amount of the Note, (ii) the unpaid principal amount of the Note, (iii) the rate of interest in the Note, (iv) the date through which all installments of interest, commitment fees and/or principal have been paid, (v) any offsets or defenses to the payment of the Indebtedness, if any, (vi) that the Note and this Mortgage have not been modified or if modified, giving particulars of such modification and (vii) such other information as shall be requested by Mortgagee.

7. No Cooperative or Condominium . Mortgagor represents and warrants that the Mortgaged Property has not been subjected to a cooperative or condominium form of ownership. Mortgagor hereby covenants and agrees that it will not file a declaration of condominium, map or any other document having the effect of subjecting the Mortgaged Property, to a condominium or cooperative form of ownership.
8. Changes in the Laws Regarding Taxation . If any law is enacted or adopted or amended after the date of this Mortgage which deducts the Indebtedness or any portion thereof from the value of the Mortgaged Property for the purpose of taxation or which imposes a tax, either directly or indirectly, on the principal amount of the Note or Mortgagees interest in the Mortgaged Property, Mortgagor will pay such tax, with interest and penalties thereon, if any. In the event Mortgagee is advised by counsel chosen by it that the payment of such tax or interest and penalties by Mortgagor would be unlawful or taxable to Mortgagee or unenforceable or provide the basis for a defense of usury, then in any such event, Mortgagee shall have the option, by notice of not less than sixty (60) days, to declare the Indebtedness immediately due and payable without prepayment fee or premium, except that if an Event of Default, or an event which with notice and/or the passage of time, or both, would constitute an Event of Default, has occurred, the applicable premium computed in accordance with the Note shall apply.
9. No Credits on Account of the Indebtedness . Mortgagor will not claim or demand or be entitled to any credit or credits on account of the Indebtedness for any part of the Taxes assessed against the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof and no deduction shall otherwise be made or claimed from the taxable value of the Mortgaged Property, or any part thereof, by reason of this Mortgage or the Indebtedness. In the event such claim, credit or deduction shall be required by law, Mortgagee shall have the option, by notice of not less than sixty (60) days, to declare the Indebtedness immediately due and payable without prepayment fee or premium, except that if an Event of Default, or an event which with notice and/or the passage of time, or both, would constitute an Event of Default, has occurred, the applicable premium computed in accordance with the Note shall apply.
10. Documentary Stamps . If at any time the United States of America, any State thereof or any subdivision of any such State shall require revenue or other stamps to be affixed to the Note or this Mortgage, or impose any other tax or charge on the same, Mortgagor will pay for the same, with interest and penalties thereon, if any.
11. Right of Entry . To the extent permitted by applicable law, Mortgagee and its agents shall have the right to enter and inspect the Mortgaged Property at any time during reasonable business hours upon twenty-four (24) hour notice to Mortgagor, except in the case of an emergency, in which event Mortgagee and its agents may enter and inspect the Mortgaged Property at any time.

1. Payment of Principal and Interest . Principal and interest shall be paid as follows:
(a) If the loan proceeds are not disbursed on the first day of a month, then interest only at the Applicable Interest Rate from and including the date of disbursement of the loan proceeds to the first day of the month following such disbursement shall be due and payable in advance on the date of such disbursement;
(b) Interest only is to be paid in installments as follows: $50,208.38 on the first day of April, 2008 and on the first day of each calendar month thereafter up to and including the first day of March, 2013;
(c) Principal and interest is to be paid in installments as follows: $59,617.63 on the first day of April, 2013, and on the first day of each calendar month thereafter up to and including the first day of February, 2018; and
(d) The outstanding principal balance and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon and all other sums and fees due under this Note shall be due and payable on the first day of March, 2018 (the Maturity Date ).
Interest on the principal balance of this Note shall be calculated on a monthly basis using, as the agreed method of calculation, a three hundred sixty (360) day year consisting of twelve (12) months of thirty (30) days each; provided , however , that interest for a period of less than a full month shall be calculated by multiplying the actual number of days elapsed during such partial month by a daily rate based upon a three hundred sixty-five day year and the interest rate then due under this Note.
The term Applicable Interest Rate as used in this Note shall mean from the date of disbursement of the loan proceeds through and including the Maturity Date, a rate of Six and Seventeen One-Hundredths Percent (6.17%) per annum.
If at any time Payee receives, from Maker or otherwise, any amount applicable to the Debt (hereinafter defined) which is less than all amounts due and payable at such time, Payee may apply that payment to amounts then due and payable in any manner and in any order determined by Payee, in Payees sole discretion. Payee shall, however, be under no obligation to accept any amount less than all amounts then due and payable. Maker agrees that neither Payees acceptance of a payment from Maker in an amount that is less than all amounts then due and payable nor Payees application of such payment shall constitute or be deemed to constitute either a waiver of the unpaid amounts or an accord and satisfaction. This provision shall control notwithstanding any inconsistent direction by Maker or any other obligor hereunder.
This Note is issued by Maker to Payee pursuant to a certain Loan Agreement by and among Maker and John Hancock of even date herewith (the Loan Agreement ) whereby John Hancock has agreed to make three (3) separate loans to Maker in the aggregate principal amount of $105,000,000.00. This Note evidences a portion of one of such loans, which loan is in the aggregate principal amount of $21,765,000.00 (the CT Loan ), as set forth in the Loan Agreement. Reference is hereby made to the Loan Agreement for a full statement of the rights of the holder of, and the nature and extent of the security for, this Note. The whole of the principal sum of this Note, together with all interest accrued and unpaid thereon and all other sums due under this Note, any other mortgage note evidencing any other portion of the CT Loan, and the Loan Agreement and any other instrument now or hereafter evidencing, securing, guaranteeing or executed in connection with the Loan Agreement or the indebtedness evidenced hereby (the Loan Documents ) (all such sums hereinafter collectively referred to as the Debt ) shall without notice become immediately due and payable at the option of Payee on the happening of an Event of Default as the same is defined in the Loan Agreement (hereinafter defined). All of the terms, covenants and conditions contained in the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents are hereby made part of this Note to the same extent and with the same force as if they were fully set forth herein. In the event of any conflict between the terms of the Note and the terms of the Loan Agreement, the Mortgages and other security instruments, the terms of this Note shall govern, except as specifically provided herein or in the Loan Agreement.
2. Prepayment . Except as provided below, Maker may not prepay the loan evidenced by this Note in whole or in part.
On or after the end of the fifth (5 th ) Loan Year (as hereinafter defined), on any scheduled payment date and subject to giving Payee not less than thirty (30) nor more than ninety (90) days prior written notice specifying the scheduled payment date on which prepayment is to be made (the Prepayment Date ), Maker may prepay the entire principal amount together with any and all accrued interest and other sums due under the Loan Documents, and subject to payment of a prepayment premium equal to the greater of:
(a) the positive amount, if any, equal to (i) the sum of the present values of all scheduled payments due under the Note from the Prepayment Date to and including the Maturity Date, minus (ii) the principal balance of the Note immediately prior to such prepayment; or
(b) 1.0% of the principal balance of the Note immediately prior to such prepayment.
All present values shall be calculated as of the Prepayment Date, using a discount rate, compounded monthly, equal to the yield rate plus twenty-five (25) basis points, converted to its monthly equivalent, of the United States Treasury Security having the closest maturity date to the Maturity Date of the Note as established in the Wall Street Journal or other business publication of general circulation five (5) business days before the Prepayment Date.
In the event that the yield rate on publicly traded United States Treasury Securities is not obtainable, then the nearest equivalent issue or index shall be selected, at Payees reasonable determination, and used to calculate the prepayment premium.
The loan evidenced by this Note will be open to prepayment without premium on any scheduled payment date during the last ninety (90) days of the term of this Note.
If any notice of prepayment is given, the principal balance of the loan evidenced by this Note and the other sums required pursuant to this Section 2 shall be due and payable on the Prepayment Date, unless Maker provides written notice to Payee that it is revoking said prepayment notice no later than five (5) business days prior to the Prepayment Date.
Provided no default exists under the Loan Documents, the above premium shall not be applicable to a prepayment resulting from Payees election to require insurance loss proceeds or condemnation awards to be applied to a payment of principal.
No partial prepayment shall be allowed.
The Loan Year is defined as any twelve month period commencing with the date on which the first monthly installment is due or any anniversary thereof.
3. Acceleration/Default . Maker acknowledges that the loan evidenced by this Note was made on the basis and assumption that Payee would receive the payments of principal and interest set forth herein for the full term of this Note. Therefore, whenever the Maturity Date of the loan evidenced by this Note has been accelerated by reason of an Event of Default under the Loan Documents, which Event of Default occurs prior to the time period, if any, in which prepayment is allowed and prior to the date on which the full amount of the balance of principal and interest then remaining unpaid shall be due, including an acceleration by reason of sale, conveyance, further encumbrance or other Event of Default (which acceleration shall be at Payees sole option), there shall be due, in addition to the outstanding principal balance, accrued interest and other sums due under the Loan Documents, a premium equal to the greater of:
(a) The sum obtained by adding:
(i) the positive amount, if any, equal to (aa) the sum of the present values of all scheduled payments due under this Note from the date of said payment to and including the Maturity Date of the Note, minus (bb) the then outstanding principal balance of the Note, and
(ii) 1.0% of the then outstanding principal balance of the Note; or
(b) An amount equal to 10.0% of the then outstanding principal balance of the Note.
All present values shall be calculated as of the date of said payment, using a discount rate, compounded monthly, equal to the yield rate, converted to its monthly equivalent, of the United States Treasury Security having the closest maturity date to the Maturity Date of the Note as established in the Wall Street Journal or other business publication of general circulation five (5) business days before the date of said payment. In the event that the yield rate on publicly traded United States Treasury Securities is not obtainable, then the nearest equivalent issue or index shall be selected, at Payees reasonable determination, and used to calculate the prepayment premium.
If an Event of Default occurs on or after the date on which prepayment is permitted, then in lieu of the above premium, payment of a premium calculated in the manner set forth in Section 2 hereof shall be required.
A tender of the amount necessary to satisfy the entire indebtedness, paid at any time following such Event of Default or acceleration, including at a foreclosure sale or during any subsequent redemption period, if any, shall be deemed a voluntary prepayment, and, at Payees option, such payment shall include a premium as described above.
4. Default Rate . Maker does hereby agree that upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and while any Event of Default exists, including, without limitation, the failure of Maker to pay the Debt in full on the Maturity Date, Payee shall be entitled to receive and Maker shall pay interest on the entire unpaid principal sum, effective from the date of Makers initial default with respect to such Event of Default without allowance for any applicable notice and/or grace period, at a rate (the Default Rate ) equal to seven percent (7%) above the Applicable Interest Rate, but in no event to exceed the highest rate permitted under the laws of the jurisdiction where the property secured by the Mortgage is situated. Notwithstanding the provisions of any statute or regulation to the contrary, the Default Rate shall apply to all sums evidenced hereby upon, during and after an Event of Default as provided herein, and also after entry of a judgment or judgments against Maker (whether in a mortgage foreclosure action or otherwise), and whether or not any event described in Paragraph 3.12 of the Loan Agreement hereof has occurred.
This charge shall be added to the Debt, and shall be deemed secured by the Mortgage. This clause, however, shall not be construed as an agreement or privilege to extend the date of the payment of the Debt, nor as a waiver of any other right or remedy available to Payee by reason of the occurrence of any Event of Default.
5. Late Charge . If any monthly principal and interest payment payable under this Note is not paid in full within five (5) days of the date on which it is due, Maker shall pay to Payee an amount equal to the lesser of five percent (5%) of such unpaid sum or the maximum amount permitted by applicable law to defray the expenses incurred by Payee in handling and processing such delinquent payment and to compensate Payee for the loss of the use of such delinquent payment and such amount shall be secured by the Loan Documents.
6. Security for Loan . This Note is secured by, among other things, the Mortgage and certain other Loan Documents as set forth in the Loan Agreement. The term Mortgage as used in this Note shall mean that certain Open-End Mortgage Deed, Assignment of Leases and Rents, Security Agreement and Fixture Filing dated the date hereof in the principal sum of the CT Loan given by Maker for the use and benefit of Payee covering certain premises located at 269 South Lambert Road, 12 Cascade Boulevard, 15 and 25 Executive Boulevard and 22 Marsh Hill Road in Orange, Connecticut, 950 Bridgeport Avenue in Milford, Connecticut and 470 Bridgeport Avenue in Shelton, Connecticut.
7. Compliance with Law . It is expressly stipulated and agreed to be the intent of Maker and Payee at all times to comply with applicable state law or applicable United States federal law (to the extent that it permits Payee to contract for, charge, take, reserve or receive a greater amount of interest than under state law) and that this paragraph shall control every other covenant and agreement in this Note, the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents. If the applicable law (state or federal) is ever judicially interpreted so as to render usurious any amount called for under this Note or any of the other Loan Documents, or contracted for, charged, taken, reserved or received with respect to the Debt, or if Payees exercise of the option to accelerate the Maturity Date, or if any prepayment by Maker results in Makers having paid any interest in excess of that permitted by applicable law, then it is Payees express intent that all excess amounts theretofore collected by Payee shall be credited on the principal balance of this Note and all other Debt and the provisions of this Note, and the other Loan Documents immediately be deemed reformed and the amounts thereafter collectible hereunder and thereunder reduced, without the necessity of the execution of any new documents, so as to comply with the applicable law, but so as to permit the recovery of the fullest amount otherwise called for hereunder or thereunder. All sums paid or agreed to be paid to Payee for the use or forbearance of the Debt shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread throughout the full stated term of the Debt until payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of the Debt does not exceed the maximum lawful rate from time to time in effect and applicable to the Debt for so long as the Debt is outstanding. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or in any of the other Loan Documents, it is not the intention of Payee to accelerate the maturity of any interest that has not accrued at the time of such acceleration or to collect unearned interest at the time of such acceleration.
8. Amendments . This Note may not be modified, amended, waived, extended, changed, discharged or terminated orally or by any act or failure to act on the part of Maker or Payee, but only by an agreement in writing signed by the party against whom enforcement of any modification, amendment, waiver, extension, change, discharge or termination is sought.
9. Joint and Several Liability . If Maker consists of more than one person or party, the obligations and liabilities of each such person or party shall be joint and several.
10. Construction . Whenever used, the singular number shall include the plural, the plural the singular, and the words Payee and Maker shall include their respective successors, assigns, heirs, executors and administrators.
11. Waivers . Maker and all others who may become liable for the payment of all or any part of the Debt do hereby severally waive presentment and demand for payment, notice of dishonor, protest, notice of protest and non-payment and notice of intent to accelerate the maturity hereof (and of such acceleration). No release of any security for the Debt or extension of time for payment of this Note or any installment hereof and no alteration, amendment or waiver of any provision of this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or any other Loan Documents made by agreement between Payee and any other person or party shall release, modify, amend, waive, extend, change, discharge, terminate or affect the liability of Maker and any other who may become liable for the payment of all or any part of the Debt, under this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or any other Loan Documents.
12. Authority . Maker (and the undersigned representative of Maker, if any) represents that Maker has full power, authority and legal right to execute, deliver and perform its obligations pursuant to this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents and that this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents constitute valid and binding obligations of Maker.
13. Time . Time is of the essence of this Note.
14. Replacement Note . In the event of the loss, theft or destruction of this Note, upon Makers receipt of a reasonably satisfactory indemnification agreement executed in favor of Maker by Payee or in the event of the mutilation of this Note, upon the surrender of the mutilated Note by Payee to Maker, Maker shall execute and deliver to Payee a new mortgage note in form and content identical to this Note in lieu of the lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note.
15. Notice . All notices required to be given pursuant hereto shall be given in the manner specified in the Loan Agreement directed to the parties at their respective addresses as provided therein.
16. Costs and Expenses . Maker shall pay all expenses and costs, including fees and out-of-pocket expenses of attorneys and expert witnesses and costs of investigation incurred by Payee as a result of any Event of Default or in connection with efforts to collect any amount due under this Note or to enforce the provisions of any of the Loan Documents, including those incurred in post-judgment collection efforts and in any bankruptcy proceeding (including any action for relief from the automatic stay of any bankruptcy proceeding) or judicial or non judicial foreclosure proceeding.
17. Forbearance . Any forbearance by Payee in exercising any right or remedy under this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or any other Loan Document or otherwise afforded by applicable law shall not be a waiver of or preclude the exercise of that or any other right or remedy. The acceptance by Payee of any payment after the due date of such payment or in an amount which is less than the required payment shall not be a waiver of Payees right to require prompt payment when due of all other payments or to exercise any right or remedy with respect to any failure to make prompt payment. Enforcement by Payee of any security for Makers obligations under this Note shall not constitute an election by Payee of remedies so as to preclude the exercise of any other right or remedy available to Payee.
18. Section Headings . The Section headings inserted in this Note have been included for convenience only and are not intended and shall not be construed to limit or define in any way the substance of any section contained herein.
19. Limitation on Liability . Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, but subject to the obligations of Section 6.6 of the Loan Agreement, any claim based on or in respect of any liability of Maker under this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or any other Loan Document shall be enforced only against the Mortgaged Property (as such term is defined in the Mortgage) and any other collateral now or hereafter given to secure this Note and not against any other assets, properties or funds of Maker; provided , however, that the liability of Maker for loss, costs or damage arising out of the matters described in the subsections below (collectively, Non-Recourse Carveout Obligations ) shall not be limited solely to the Mortgaged Property and other collateral now or hereafter given to secure this Note but shall include all of the assets, properties and funds of Maker: (i) fraud, misrepresentation and waste; (ii) any rents, issues or profits collected more than one (1) month in advance of their due dates; (iii) any misapplication of rents, issues or profits, security deposits and any other payments from tenants or occupants (including, without limitation, lease termination fees), insurance proceeds, condemnation awards or other sums of a similar nature; (iv) liability under environmental covenants, conditions and indemnities contained in the Loan Agreement, including, without limitation, Section 3.9, the Mortgage and in any separate environmental indemnity agreements; (v) personalty or fixtures removed or allowed to be removed by or on behalf of Maker and not replaced by items of equal or greater value or functionality than the personalty or fixtures so removed; (vi) failure to pay taxes, assessments or ground rents prior to delinquency, or to pay charges for labor, materials or other charges which can create liens on any portion of the Mortgaged Property before such charges become a lien on such Mortgaged Property or any portion thereof and any sums expended by Payee in the performance of or compliance with the obligations of Maker under the Loan Documents, including, without limitation, sums expended to pay taxes or assessments or hazard insurance premiums or bills for utilities or other services or products for the benefit of the Mortgaged Property; (vii) the unauthorized sale, conveyance or transfer of title to the Mortgaged Property or encumbrance of the Mortgaged Property; (viii) the failure of Maker to maintain its status as a single purpose, bankruptcy-remote entity pursuant to its organizational documents and the Loan Documents; (ix) a violation of the provisions of Section 3.7(h) of the Loan Agreement; (x) the filing of any action to partition the Mortgaged Property or any Individual Property (as defined in the Loan Agreement) or the occurrence of any such partition or any sale pursuant to any such action; (xi) the transfer of any TIC (as defined in the Loan Agreement) interests in any of the Mortgaged Property or any Individual Property, or any direct or indirect interests in the holder of any such TIC interest, other than as expressly permitted under Section 3.4(h) of the Loan Agreement; (xii) the termination, cancellation or non- renewal of an Approved Manager (as defined in the Loan Agreement) or any other failure of an Approved Manager to serve as manager of any Permitted TIC (as defined in the Loan Agreement); (xiii) the failure of any Approved Manager to meet the Management Requirements (as defined in the Loan Agreement); and (xiv) attorneys fees, court costs and other expenses incurred by Payee in connection with enforcement of its remedies under the Loan Documents, including, but not limited to, in connection with any bankruptcy proceeding or reorganization brought by or against Maker or any Principal (as defined in the Loan Agreement) of Maker.
Nothing herein shall be deemed (w) to be a waiver of any right which Payee may have under any bankruptcy law of the United States or the state where the Mortgaged Property is located including, but not limited to, Section 506(a), 506(b), 1111(b) or any other provisions of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code to file a claim for the full amount of the indebtedness secured by the Mortgage or to require that all collateral securing the indebtedness secured hereby shall continue to secure all of the indebtedness owing to Payee in accordance with this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents; (x) to impair the validity of the indebtedness secured by the Mortgage; (y) to impair the right of Payee as mortgagee or secured party to commence an action to foreclose any lien or security interest; or (z) to modify, diminish or discharge the liability of any guarantor under any guaranty or of any indemnitor under any indemnity agreement.

1. Payment of Principal and Interest . Principal and interest shall be paid as follows:
(a) If the loan proceeds are not disbursed on the first day of a month, then interest only at the Applicable Interest Rate from and including the date of disbursement of the loan proceeds to the first day of the month following such disbursement shall be due and payable in advance on the date of such disbursement;
(b) Interest only is to be paid in installments as follows: $51,200.00 on the first day of April, 2008 and on the first day of each calendar month thereafter up to and including the first day of February, 2011; and
(c) The outstanding principal balance and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon and all other sums and fees due under this Note shall be due and payable on the first day of March, 2011 (the Maturity Date ).
Interest on the principal balance of this Note shall be calculated on a monthly basis using, as the agreed method of calculation, a three hundred sixty (360) day year consisting of twelve (12) months of thirty (30) days each; provided , however , that interest for a period of less than a full month shall be calculated by multiplying the actual number of days elapsed during such partial month by a daily rate based upon a three hundred sixty-five day year and the interest rate then due under this Note.
The term Applicable Interest Rate as used in this Note shall mean from the date of disbursement of the loan proceeds through and including the Maturity Date, a rate of Five and Twelve One-Hundredths Percent (5.12%) per annum.
If at any time Payee receives, from Maker or otherwise, any amount applicable to the Debt (hereinafter defined) which is less than all amounts due and payable at such time, Payee may apply that payment to amounts then due and payable in any manner and in any order determined by Payee, in Payees sole discretion. Payee shall, however, be under no obligation to accept any amount less than all amounts then due and payable. Maker agrees that neither Payees acceptance of a payment from Maker in an amount that is less than all amounts then due and payable nor Payees application of such payment shall constitute or be deemed to constitute either a waiver of the unpaid amounts or an accord and satisfaction. This provision shall control notwithstanding any inconsistent direction by Maker or any other obligor hereunder.
This Note is issued by Maker to Payee pursuant to a certain Loan Agreement by and among Maker and John Hancock of even date herewith (the Loan Agreement ) whereby John Hancock has agreed to make three (3) separate loans to Maker in the aggregate principal amount of $105,000,000.00. This Note evidences a portion of one of such loans, which loan is in the aggregate principal amount of $21,765,000.00 (the CT Loan ), as set forth in the Loan Agreement. Reference is hereby made to the Loan Agreement for a full statement of the rights of the holder of, and the nature and extent of the security for, this Note. The whole of the principal sum of this Note, together with all interest accrued and unpaid thereon and all other sums due under this Note, any other mortgage note evidencing any other portion of the CT Loan, and the Loan Agreement and any other instrument now or hereafter evidencing, securing, guaranteeing or executed in connection with the Loan Agreement or the indebtedness evidenced hereby (the Loan Documents ) (all such sums hereinafter collectively referred to as the Debt ) shall without notice become immediately due and payable at the option of Payee on the happening of an Event of Default as the same is defined in the Loan Agreement (hereinafter defined). All of the terms, covenants and conditions contained in the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents are hereby made part of this Note to the same extent and with the same force as if they were fully set forth herein. In the event of any conflict between the terms of the Note and the terms of the Loan Agreement, the Mortgages and other security instruments, the terms of this Note shall govern, except as specifically provided herein or in the Loan Agreement.
2. Prepayment . Except as provided below, Maker may not prepay the loan evidenced by this Note in whole or in part.
On or after the end of the first 1.5 Loan Years (as hereinafter defined), on any scheduled payment date and subject to giving Payee not less than thirty (30) nor more than ninety (90) days prior written notice specifying the scheduled payment date on which prepayment is to be made (the Prepayment Date ), Maker may prepay the entire principal amount together with any and all accrued interest and other sums due under the Loan Documents, and subject to payment of a prepayment premium equal to the greater of:
(a) the positive amount, if any, equal to (i) the sum of the present values of all scheduled payments due under the Note from the Prepayment Date to and including the Maturity Date, minus (ii) the principal balance of the Note immediately prior to such prepayment; or
(b) 1.0% of the principal balance of the Note immediately prior to such prepayment.
All present values shall be calculated as of the Prepayment Date, using a discount rate, compounded monthly, equal to the yield rate plus twenty-five (25) basis points, converted to its monthly equivalent, of the United States Treasury Security having the closest maturity date to the Maturity Date of the Note as established in the Wall Street Journal or other business publication of general circulation five (5) business days before the Prepayment Date.
In the event that the yield rate on publicly traded United States Treasury Securities is not obtainable, then the nearest equivalent issue or index shall be selected, at Payees reasonable determination, and used to calculate the prepayment premium.
The loan evidenced by this Note will be open to prepayment without premium on any scheduled payment date during the last ninety (90) days of the term of this Note.
If any notice of prepayment is given, the principal balance of the loan evidenced by this Note and the other sums required pursuant to this Section 2 shall be due and payable on the Prepayment Date, unless Maker provides written notice to Payee that it is revoking said prepayment notice no later than five (5) business days prior to the Prepayment Date.
Provided no default exists under the Loan Documents, the above premium shall not be applicable to a prepayment resulting from Payees election to require insurance loss proceeds or condemnation awards to be applied to a payment of principal.
No partial prepayment shall be allowed.
The Loan Year is defined as any twelve month period commencing with the date on which the first monthly installment is due or any anniversary thereof.
3. Acceleration/Default . Maker acknowledges that the loan evidenced by this Note was made on the basis and assumption that Payee would receive the payments of principal and interest set forth herein for the full term of this Note. Therefore, whenever the Maturity Date of the loan evidenced by this Note has been accelerated by reason of an Event of Default under the Loan Documents, which Event of Default occurs prior to the time period, if any, in which prepayment is allowed and prior to the date on which the full amount of the balance of principal and interest then remaining unpaid shall be due, including an acceleration by reason of sale, conveyance, further encumbrance or other Event of Default (which acceleration shall be at Payees sole option), there shall be due, in addition to the outstanding principal balance, accrued interest and other sums due under the Loan Documents, a premium equal to the greater of:
(a) The sum obtained by adding:
(i) the positive amount, if any, equal to (aa) the sum of the present values of all scheduled payments due under this Note from the date of said payment to and including the Maturity Date of the Note, minus (bb) the then outstanding principal balance of the Note, and
(ii) 1.0 % of the then outstanding principal balance of the Note; or
(b) An amount equal to 10.0 % of the then outstanding principal balance of the Note.
All present values shall be calculated as of the date of said payment, using a discount rate, compounded monthly, equal to the yield rate, converted to its monthly equivalent, of the United States Treasury Security having the closest maturity date to the Maturity Date of the Note as established in the Wall Street Journal or other business publication of general circulation five (5) business days before the date of said payment. In the event that the yield rate on publicly traded United States Treasury Securities is not obtainable, then the nearest equivalent issue or index shall be selected, at Payees reasonable determination, and used to calculate the prepayment premium.
If an Event of Default occurs on or after the date on which prepayment is permitted, then in lieu of the above premium, payment of a premium calculated in the manner set forth in Section 2 hereof shall be required.
A tender of the amount necessary to satisfy the entire indebtedness, paid at any time following such Event of Default or acceleration, including at a foreclosure sale or during any subsequent redemption period, if any, shall be deemed a voluntary prepayment, and, at Payees option, such payment shall include a premium as described above.
4. Default Rate . Maker does hereby agree that upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and while any Event of Default exists, including, without limitation, the failure of Maker to pay the Debt in full on the Maturity Date, Payee shall be entitled to receive and Maker shall pay interest on the entire unpaid principal sum, effective from the date of Makers initial default with respect to such Event of Default without allowance for any applicable notice and/or grace period, at a rate (the Default Rate ) equal to seven percent (7%) above the Applicable Interest Rate, but in no event to exceed the highest rate permitted under the laws of the jurisdiction where the property secured by the Mortgage is situated. Notwithstanding the provisions of any statute or regulation to the contrary, the Default Rate shall apply to all sums evidenced hereby upon, during and after an Event of Default as provided herein, and also after entry of a judgment or judgments against Maker (whether in a mortgage foreclosure action or otherwise), and whether or not any event described in Paragraph 3.12 of the Loan Agreement hereof has occurred. This charge shall be added to the Debt, and shall be deemed secured by the Mortgage. This clause, however, shall not be construed as an agreement or privilege to extend the date of the payment of the Debt, nor as a waiver of any other right or remedy available to Payee by reason of the occurrence of any Event of Default.
5. Late Charge . If any monthly principal and interest payment payable under this Note is not paid in full within five (5) days of the date on which it is due, Maker shall pay to Payee an amount equal to the lesser of five percent (5%) of such unpaid sum or the maximum amount permitted by applicable law to defray the expenses incurred by Payee in handling and processing such delinquent payment and to compensate Payee for the loss of the use of such delinquent payment and such amount shall be secured by the Loan Documents.
6. Security for Loan . This Note is secured by, among other things, the Mortgage and certain other Loan Documents as set forth in the Loan Agreement. The term Mortgage as used in this Note shall mean that certain Open-End Mortgage Deed, Assignment of Leases and Rents, Security Agreement and Fixture Filing dated the date hereof in the principal sum of the CT Loan given by Maker for the use and benefit of Payee covering certain premises located at 269 South Lambert Road, 12 Cascade Boulevard, 15 and 25 Executive Boulevard and 22 Marsh Hill Road in Orange, Connecticut, 950 Bridgeport Avenue in Milford, Connecticut and 470 Bridgeport Avenue in Shelton, Connecticut.
7. Compliance with Law . It is expressly stipulated and agreed to be the intent of Maker and Payee at all times to comply with applicable state law or applicable United States federal law (to the extent that it permits Payee to contract for, charge, take, reserve or receive a greater amount of interest than under state law) and that this paragraph shall control every other covenant and agreement in this Note, the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents. If the applicable law (state or federal) is ever judicially interpreted so as to render usurious any amount called for under this Note or any of the other Loan Documents, or contracted for, charged, taken, reserved or received with respect to the Debt, or if Payees exercise of the option to accelerate the Maturity Date, or if any prepayment by Maker results in Makers having paid any interest in excess of that permitted by applicable law, then it is Payees express intent that all excess amounts theretofore collected by Payee shall be credited on the principal balance of this Note and all other Debt and the provisions of this Note, and the other Loan Documents immediately be deemed reformed and the amounts thereafter collectible hereunder and thereunder reduced, without the necessity of the execution of any new documents, so as to comply with the applicable law, but so as to permit the recovery of the fullest amount otherwise called for hereunder or thereunder. All sums paid or agreed to be paid to Payee for the use or forbearance of the Debt shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread throughout the full stated term of the Debt until payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of the Debt does not exceed the maximum lawful rate from time to time in effect and applicable to the Debt for so long as the Debt is outstanding. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or in any of the other Loan Documents, it is not the intention of Payee to accelerate the maturity of any interest that has not accrued at the time of such acceleration or to collect unearned interest at the time of such acceleration.
8. Amendments . This Note may not be modified, amended, waived, extended, changed, discharged or terminated orally or by any act or failure to act on the part of Maker or Payee, but only by an agreement in writing signed by the party against whom enforcement of any modification, amendment, waiver, extension, change, discharge or termination is sought.
9. Joint and Several Liability . If Maker consists of more than one person or party, the obligations and liabilities of each such person or party shall be joint and several.
10. Construction . Whenever used, the singular number shall include the plural, the plural the singular, and the words Payee and Maker shall include their respective successors, assigns, heirs, executors and administrators.
11. Waivers . Maker and all others who may become liable for the payment of all or any part of the Debt do hereby severally waive presentment and demand for payment, notice of dishonor, protest, notice of protest and non-payment and notice of intent to accelerate the maturity hereof (and of such acceleration). No release of any security for the Debt or extension of time for payment of this Note or any installment hereof and no alteration, amendment or waiver of any provision of this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or any other Loan Documents made by agreement between Payee and any other person or party shall release, modify, amend, waive, extend, change, discharge, terminate or affect the liability of Maker and any other who may become liable for the payment of all or any part of the Debt, under this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or any other Loan Documents.
12. Authority . Maker (and the undersigned representative of Maker, if any) represents that Maker has full power, authority and legal right to execute, deliver and perform its obligations pursuant to this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents and that this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents constitute valid and binding obligations of Maker.
13. Time . Time is of the essence of this Note.
14. Replacement Note . In the event of the loss, theft or destruction of this Note, upon Makers receipt of a reasonably satisfactory indemnification agreement executed in favor of Maker by Payee or in the event of the mutilation of this Note, upon the surrender of the mutilated Note by Payee to Maker, Maker shall execute and deliver to Payee a new mortgage note in form and content identical to this Note in lieu of the lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note.
15. Notice . All notices required to be given pursuant hereto shall be given in the manner specified in the Loan Agreement directed to the parties at their respective addresses as provided therein.
16. Costs and Expenses . Maker shall pay all expenses and costs, including fees and out-of-pocket expenses of attorneys and expert witnesses and costs of investigation incurred by Payee as a result of any Event of Default or in connection with efforts to collect any amount due under this Note or to enforce the provisions of any of the Loan Documents, including those incurred in post-judgment collection efforts and in any bankruptcy proceeding (including any action for relief from the automatic stay of any bankruptcy proceeding) or judicial or non-judicial foreclosure proceeding.
17. Forbearance . Any forbearance by Payee in exercising any right or remedy under this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or any other Loan Document or otherwise afforded by applicable law shall not be a waiver of or preclude the exercise of that or any other right or remedy. The acceptance by Payee of any payment after the due date of such payment or in an amount which is less than the required payment shall not be a waiver of Payees right to require prompt payment when due of all other payments or to exercise any right or remedy with respect to any failure to make prompt payment. Enforcement by Payee of any security for Makers obligations under this Note shall not constitute an election by Payee of remedies so as to preclude the exercise of any other right or remedy available to Payee.
18. Section Headings . The Section headings inserted in this Note have been included for convenience only and are not intended and shall not be construed to limit or define in any way the substance of any section contained herein.
19. Limitation on Liability . Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, but subject to the obligations of Section 6.6 of the Loan Agreement, any claim based on or in respect of any liability of Maker under this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or any other Loan Document shall be enforced only against the Mortgaged Property (as such term is defined in the Mortgage) and any other collateral now or hereafter given to secure this Note and not against any other assets, properties or funds of Maker; provided, however, that the liability of Maker for loss, costs or damage arising out of the matters described in the subsections below (collectively, Non-Recourse Carveout Obligations ) shall not be limited solely to the Mortgaged Property and other collateral now or hereafter given to secure this Note but shall include all of the assets, properties and funds of Maker: (i) fraud, misrepresentation and waste; (ii) any rents, issues or profits collected more than one (1) month in advance of their due dates; (iii) any misapplication of rents, issues or profits, security deposits and any other payments from tenants or occupants (including, without limitation, lease termination fees), insurance proceeds, condemnation awards or other sums of a similar nature; (iv) liability under environmental covenants, conditions and indemnities contained in the Loan Agreement, including, without limitation, Section 3.9, the Mortgage and in any separate environmental indemnity agreements; (v) personalty or fixtures removed or allowed to be removed by or on behalf of Maker and not replaced by items of equal or greater value or functionality than the personalty or fixtures so removed; (vi) failure to pay taxes, assessments or ground rents prior to delinquency, or to pay charges for labor, materials or other charges which can create liens on any portion of the Mortgaged Property before such charges become a lien on such Mortgaged Property or any portion thereof and any sums expended by Payee in the performance of or compliance with the obligations of Maker under the Loan Documents, including, without limitation, sums expended to pay taxes or assessments or hazard insurance premiums or bills for utilities or other services or products for the benefit of the Mortgaged Property; (vii) the unauthorized sale, conveyance or transfer of title to the Mortgaged Property or encumbrance of the Mortgaged Property; (viii) the failure of Maker to maintain its status as a single purpose, bankruptcy-remote entity pursuant to its organizational documents and the Loan Documents; (ix) a violation of the provisions of Section 3.7(h) of the Loan Agreement; (x) the filing of any action to partition the Mortgaged Property or any Individual Property (as defined in the Loan Agreement) or the occurrence of any such partition or any sale pursuant to any such action; (xi) the transfer of any TIC (as defined in the Loan Agreement) interests in any of the Mortgaged Property or any Individual Property, or any direct or indirect interests in the holder of any such TIC interest, other than as expressly permitted under Section 3.4(h) of the Loan Agreement; (xii) the termination, cancellation or non-renewal of an Approved Manager (as defined in the Loan Agreement) or any other failure of an Approved Manager to serve as manager of any Permitted TIC (as defined in the Loan Agreement); (xiii) the failure of any Approved Manager to meet the Management Requirements (as defined in the Loan Agreement); and (xiv) attorneys fees, court costs and other expenses incurred by Payee in connection with enforcement of its remedies under the Loan Documents, including, but not limited to, in connection with any bankruptcy proceeding or reorganization brought by or against Maker or any Principal (as defined in the Loan Agreement) of Maker.
Nothing herein shall be deemed (w) to be a waiver of any right which Payee may have under any bankruptcy law of the United States or the state where the Mortgaged Property is located including, but not limited to, Section 506(a), 506(b), 1111(b) or any other provisions of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code to file a claim for the full amount of the indebtedness secured by the Mortgage or to require that all collateral securing the indebtedness secured hereby shall continue to secure all of the indebtedness owing to Payee in accordance with this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents; (x) to impair the validity of the indebtedness secured by the Mortgage; (y) to impair the right of Payee as mortgagee or secured party to commence an action to foreclose any lien or security interest; or (z) to modify, diminish or discharge the liability of any guarantor under any guaranty or of any indemnitor under any indemnity agreement.

GENERAL PROVISIONS
1. Payment of Indebtedness and Incorporation of Covenants, Conditions and Agreements . Mortgagor shall pay the Indebtedness at the time and in the manner provided in the Note, this Mortgage and the other Loan Documents. All the covenants, conditions and agreements contained in the Note and the other Loan Documents are hereby made a part of this Mortgage to the same extent and with the same force as if fully set forth herein. Mortgagor shall also pay all amounts due or to become due under the First Mortgage and the Third Mortgage.
2. Warranty of Title . Mortgagor has good and marketable title to the Mortgaged Property; Mortgagor has the right to mortgage, give, grant, bargain, sell, alienate, enfeoff, convey, confirm, pledge, lease, assign, hypothecate and grant a security interest in the Mortgaged Property; Mortgagor possesses an indefeasible fee estate in the Real Property; and Mortgagor owns the Mortgaged Property free and clear of all liens, encumbrances and charges whatsoever except for the First Mortgage, and those exceptions shown in the title insurance policy insuring the lien of this Mortgage (this Mortgage, the First Mortgage, and the liens, encumbrances and charges shown as exceptions in such title policy, hereinafter collectively referred to as the Permitted Encumbrances ). Mortgagor shall forever warrant, defend and preserve such title and the validity and priority of the lien of this Mortgage and shall forever warrant and defend the same to Mortgagee against the claims of all persons whomsoever.
3. Condemnation . Mortgagor shall promptly give Mortgagee written notice of the actual or threatened commencement of any condemnation or eminent domain proceeding and shall deliver to Mortgagee copies of any and all papers served in connection with such proceedings.
Following the occurrence of a condemnation, Mortgagor, regardless of whether an award is available, shall promptly proceed to restore, repair, replace or rebuild the Improvements to the extent practicable to be of at least equal value and of substantially the same character as prior to such condemnation, all to be effected in accordance with applicable law. Notwithstanding any taking by any public or quasi-public authority through eminent domain or otherwise (including but not limited to any transfer made in lieu of or in anticipation of the exercise of such taking), Mortgagor shall continue to pay the Indebtedness at the time and in the manner provided for its payment in the Note, in this Mortgage and the other Loan Documents and the Indebtedness shall not be reduced until any award or payment therefor shall have been actually received after expenses of collection and applied by Mortgagee to the discharge of the Indebtedness. Mortgagor shall cause the award or payment made in any condemnation or eminent domain proceeding, which is payable to Mortgagor, to be paid directly to Mortgagee. Mortgagee may, at Mortgagees election, use the award in any one or more of the following ways: (a) apply any such award or payment (for purposes of this Paragraph 3 , the award or payment that may be made in any condemnation or eminent domain proceeding shall mean the entire award allocated to Mortgagor in any capacity) to the discharge of the Indebtedness whether or not then due and payable (such application to be without prepayment fee or premium, except that if an Event of Default, or an event which with notice and/or the passage of time, or both, would constitute an Event of Default, has occurred, then such application shall be subject to the applicable premium computed in accordance with the Note), (b) use the same or any part thereof to fulfill any of the covenants contained herein as the Mortgagee may determine, (c) use the same or any part thereof to replace or restore the Mortgaged Property to a condition satisfactory to the Mortgagee, or (d) release the same to the Mortgagor. If the Mortgaged Property is sold, through foreclosure or otherwise, prior to the receipt by Mortgagee of such award or payment, Mortgagee shall have the right, whether or not a deficiency judgment on the Note shall have been sought, recovered or denied, to receive said award or payment or a portion thereof sufficient to pay the Indebtedness.
4. Leases and Rents .
(a) Mortgagor does hereby absolutely and unconditionally assign to Mortgagee its right, title and interest in all current and future Leases and Rents and all proceeds from the sale, cancellation, surrender or other disposition of the Leases, it being intended by Mortgagor that this assignment constitutes a present, absolute assignment and not an assignment for additional security only. Such assignment to Mortgagee shall not be construed to bind Mortgagee to the performance of any of the covenants, conditions or provisions contained in any such Lease or otherwise to impose any obligation upon Mortgagee. Mortgagor agrees to execute and deliver to Mortgagee such additional instruments in form and substance satisfactory to Mortgagee, as may hereafter be requested by Mortgagee to further evidence and confirm such assignment. Nevertheless, subject to the terms of this Paragraph 4 , Mortgagee grants to Mortgagor a revocable license to operate and manage the Mortgaged Property and to collect the Rents. Mortgagor shall hold the Rents, or a portion thereof sufficient to discharge all current sums due on the Indebtedness, in trust for the benefit of Mortgagee for use in the payment of such sums. The grant of the foregoing license is subject to the provisions of Paragraph 1 of the separate Assignment of Leases and Rents of even date herewith granted by the Mortgagor as Assignor to the Mortgagee as Assignee with respect to the Mortgaged Property ( Assignment of Leases and Rents ). Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the license granted to Mortgagor herein shall be automatically revoked and Mortgagee shall immediately be entitled to possession of all Rents, whether or not Mortgagee enters upon or takes control of the Mortgaged Property.
Mortgagee is hereby granted and assigned by Mortgagor the right, at its option, upon the revocation of the license granted herein to enter upon the Mortgaged Property in person, by agent or by court-appointed receiver to collect the Rents. Any Rents collected after the revocation of the license herein granted may, subject to the rights of the First Mortgagee, be applied toward payment of the Indebtedness in such priority and proportion as Mortgagee in its discretion shall deem proper. It is further the intent of Mortgagor and Mortgagee that the Rents hereby absolutely assigned are no longer, during the term of this Mortgage, property of Mortgagor or property of any estate of Mortgagor as defined in Section 541 of the Bankruptcy Code and shall not constitute collateral, cash or otherwise, of Mortgagor. The term Rents as used herein shall mean the gross rents without deduction or offsets of any kind.
(b) All Leases executed after the date of this Mortgage shall provide that they are subordinate to this Mortgage and that the lessee agrees to attorn to Mortgagee; provided , however , that nothing herein shall affect Mortgagees right to designate from time to time any one or more Leases as being superior to this Mortgage and Mortgagor shall execute and deliver to Mortgagee and shall cause to be executed and delivered to Mortgagee from each tenant under such Lease any instrument or agreement as Mortgagee may deem necessary to make such Lease superior to this Mortgage. Upon request, Mortgagor shall promptly furnish Mortgagee with executed copies of all Leases.
(c) Mortgagor shall not, without the prior consent of Mortgagee, (i) lease all or any part of the Mortgaged Property, (ii) alter or change the terms of any Lease or cancel or terminate, abridge or otherwise modify the terms of any Lease, (iii) consent to any assignment of or subletting under any Lease not in accordance with its terms, (iv) cancel, terminate, abridge or otherwise modify any guaranty of any Lease or the terms thereof, (v) collect or accept prepayments of installments of Rents for a period of more than one (1) month in advance or (vi) further assign the whole or any part of the Leases or the Rents; provided , however , that such action as described in subsections (i)-(iv) above may be taken without Mortgagees consent for any Lease which is for not more than five percent (5%) of the total net rentable square feet of space then occupied or available for occupancy at the Mortgaged Property provides for, an annual rent of not more than five percent (5%) of the total rentable income then being paid with respect to all of the Mortgaged Property, requires tenant to pay market rent for the entire term of said Lease, and has a term (including the renewal or extension term) of not more than 20 years (a lease satisfying those criteria shall be referred to as a Small Lease ) so long as the taking of such action is in the ordinary course of Mortgagors business and that such action is still subject to Paragraph 1 of the separate Assignment of Leases and Rents pertaining to Termination Amounts (as defined therein).
(d) With respect to each Lease, Mortgagor shall (i) observe and perform each and every provision thereof on the lessors part to be fulfilled or performed under each Lease and not to or permit to be done anything to impair the value of the Lease as security for the Loan, including surrender or voluntary termination of any Lease, (ii) promptly send to Mortgagee copies of all notices of default which Mortgagor shall send or receive thereunder, (iii) enforce all of the terms, covenants and conditions contained in such Lease upon the lessees part to be performed, short of termination thereof, (iv) execute and deliver, at the request of Mortgagee, all such further assurances, confirmations and assignments in connection with the Mortgaged Property as Mortgagee shall, from time to time, require and (v) upon request, furnish Mortgagee with executed copies of all Leases; provided , however , the notice to Mortgagee referenced in subsection (ii) above and the restriction on termination of a Lease in connection with the enforcement of its terms, covenants and conditions set forth in (iii) above shall not be required or apply, as the case may be, for any Small Lease.
Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default under this Mortgage, Mortgagor shall pay monthly in advance to Mortgagee, or any receiver appointed to collect the Rents, the fair and reasonable rental value for the use and occupation of the Mortgaged Property or part of the Mortgaged Property as may be occupied by Mortgagor or any one Mortgagor and upon default in any such payment Mortgagor shall vacate and surrender possession of the Mortgaged Property to Mortgagee or to such receiver and, in default thereof, Mortgagor may be evicted by summary proceedings or otherwise.
(e) All security deposits of tenants, whether held in cash or any other form, shall not be commingled with any other funds of Mortgagor and, if cash, shall be deposited by Mortgagor at such commercial or savings bank or banks as may be reasonably satisfactory to Mortgagee. Any bond or other instrument which Mortgagor is permitted to hold in lieu of cash security deposits under any applicable legal requirements shall be maintained in full force and effect in the full amount of such deposits unless replaced by cash deposits as hereinabove described, shall be issued by an institution reasonably satisfactory to Mortgagee, shall, if permitted pursuant to any legal requirements and subject to the rights of First Mortgagee, name Mortgagee as payee or Mortgagee thereunder (or at Mortgagees option, be fully assignable to Mortgagee) and shall, in all respects, comply with any applicable legal requirements and otherwise be reasonably satisfactory to Mortgagee. Mortgagor shall, upon request, provide Mortgagee with evidence reasonably satisfactory to Mortgagee of Mortgagors compliance with the foregoing. Following the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, Mortgagor shall, upon Mortgagees request, if permitted by any applicable legal requirements, and subject to the rights of First Mortgagee, turn over to Mortgagee the security deposits (and any interest theretofore earned thereon) with respect to all or any portion of the Mortgaged Property, to be held by Mortgagee subject to the terms of the Leases.
5. Maintenance and Use of Mortgaged Property . Mortgagor shall, at its sole cost and expense, keep and maintain the Mortgaged Property, including, without limitation, parking lots and recreational and landscaped portions thereof, if any, in good order and condition. The Improvements and the Equipment shall not be diminished, removed, demolished or materially altered (except for normal replacement of Equipment) and Mortgagor shall not erect any new buildings, structures or building additions on the Mortgaged Property without the prior consent of Mortgagee. So long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Mortgagor shall have the right at any time and from time to time after providing Mortgagee with written notice to make or cause to be made reasonable alterations of and additions to the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof, provided that any alteration or addition (i) shall not change the general character of the Mortgaged Property or reduce the fair market value thereof below its value immediately before such alteration or addition, or impair the usefulness of the Mortgaged Property, (ii) is effected with due diligence, in a good and workmanlike manner and in compliance with all applicable laws and with all provisions of any insurance policy covering or applicable to the Mortgaged Property and all requirements of the issuers thereof, (iii) is promptly and fully paid for, or caused to be paid for, by Mortgagor, (iv) the estimated cost of such alteration or addition does not exceed five percent (5%) of the original principal amount of the Loan, and the Mortgagor is in compliance with all of the terms and conditions of the First Mortgage with respect to such Alteration, and (v) is made under the supervision of a qualified architect or engineer, (vi) shall not violate the terms of any Leases, and (vii) upon completion, Mortgagor shall provide Mortgagee with (aa) a satisfactory final improvement survey if the footprint of the building has been altered, (bb), any final occupancy permit which may be required for the Improvements, (cc) all other governmental permits, certificates and approvals and all other permits, certificates and approvals of fire underwriters which are required with respect to the alterations and additions and the use and occupancy thereof, and shall furnish true copies thereof to Mortgagee, and (dd) final lien waivers from all contractors, subcontractors and materialmen.
Mortgagor shall promptly comply with all laws, orders and ordinances affecting the Mortgaged Property, or the use thereof, provided , however , that nothing in the foregoing clause shall require Mortgagor to comply with any such law, order or ordinance so long as Mortgagor shall in good faith, after notice to, but without cost or expense to, Mortgagee, contest the validity of such law, order or ordinance by appropriate legal proceedings and in accordance with all applicable law, which proceedings must operate to prevent (i) the enforcement thereof, (ii) the payment of any fine, charge or penalty, (iii) the sale or forfeiture of the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof, (iv) the lien of this Mortgage and the priority thereof from being impaired, (v) the imposition of criminal liability on Mortgagee and (vi) the imposition, unless stayed, of civil liability on Mortgagee; provided that during such contest Mortgagor shall, at the option of Mortgagee, provide cash, bonds or other security satisfactory to Mortgagee, indemnifying and protecting Mortgagee against any liability, loss or injury by reason of such non-compliance or contest, and provided further, that such contest shall be promptly and diligently prosecuted by and at the expense of Mortgagor. Mortgagor shall promptly, at its sole cost and expense, repair, replace or rebuild any part of the Mortgaged Property which may be destroyed by any casualty, or become damaged, worn or dilapidated.

51. Additional Security Documents.
(a) Mortgagor has simultaneously herewith executed and delivered to or for the benefit of Mortgagee counterpart originals of this Mortgage to be recorded in each Town in Connecticut where any of the Mortgaged Property is located.
(b) Also, certain of the other Borrowers have simultaneously herewith executed and delivered to or for the benefit of Mortgagee a certain mortgage and other documents and instruments encumbering or relating to certain property owned by such other Borrowers located in Morris County in the State of New Jersey as additional security for the Indebtedness (collectively, the Additional Mortgage), which Additional Mortgage secures the Loan, as well as the CT Loan and the NY Loan.
(c) Further, certain of the other Borrowers have simultaneously herewith executed and delivered to or for the benefit of Mortgagee a certain Second Assignment of Leases and Rents with respect to the property in Westchester County, New York encumbered by a mortgage which secures the NY Loan, as additional security for the Loan and the NJ Loan, pursuant to the Loan Agreement. Said Second Assignment of Leases and Rents (the Junior Assignment ) is subordinate and junior in priority to said mortgage and related documents which secure the NY Loan.
(d) The Additional Mortgage, the Junior Assignment and this Mortgage (and each counterpart thereof) shall each and all constitute security for the Notes, the indebtedness referred to therein and the Indebtedness. If there should be an Event of Default in any of the terms, conditions or obligations of any of the Additional Mortgage, or the Junior Assignment, such default shall constitute an Event of Default under this Mortgage. The Mortgagee may foreclose or otherwise enforce such security under the Additional Mortgage and/or the Junior Assignment, enforce its rights, powers and remedies with respect to, and realize upon, such security or otherwise enforce its rights, powers and remedies with respect to, and realize upon, such security, either before or concurrently with or after a foreclosure or other enforcement of this Mortgage, any other such security or any of the other Loan Documents, and in any order as Mortgagee may choose (whether or not every aspect of any such foreclosure or other enforcement may be commercially reasonable), all without impairing or being deemed to have waived any rights, benefits, liens or security evidenced by or arising under or in connection with this Mortgage, any other such security or any of the other Loan Documents, the Additional Mortgage or the Junior Assignment, and without being deemed to have made an election thereby or to have accepted the benefits of such security (or the proceeds thereof) in full settlement of the Obligations and of its rights with respect thereto.
No judgment, order or decree rendered against Mortgagor with respect to any such other security or any of the other Loan Documents, whether rendered in any state in which any collateral is situated or elsewhere, shall in any manner affect the security of this Mortgage, and any deficiency or other debt represented by any such judgment, order or decree shall, to the extent permitted by law, be secured by this Mortgage to the same extent that the Indebtedness shall have been secured by this Mortgage prior to the rendering of such judgment, order or decree. Mortgagor for itself and for any and all persons who may at any time claim through or under Mortgagor or who hereafter may otherwise acquire any interest in or title to all or any part of the Mortgaged Property or any other security for the Obligations, hereby irrevocably waives and releases, to the extent permitted by law, all benefit of any and all laws that would limit or prohibit the effectiveness of anything set forth in this Section.
(e) As set forth above in the Section entitled Loan Agreement, Mortgagor has also executed and delivered to or for the benefit of Mortgagee (i) the First Mortgage encumbering the Mortgaged Property and securing the CT Loan, and (ii) the Third Mortgage encumbering the Mortgaged Property securing the NY Loan, pursuant to the Loan Agreement, which First Mortgage is superior and senior in priority to this Mortgage and which Third Mortgage (the Junior Mortgage ) is subordinate and junior in priority to this Mortgage. The Junior Mortgage is intended to be recorded immediately following this Mortgage.
(f) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Mortgagee shall be under no duty to Mortgagor or any other person or entity, including, without limitation, any holder of the First Mortgage or the Junior Mortgage or any other junior, senior or subordinate mortgage on the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof or on any other security held by Mortgagee, to exercise, exhaust or first resort to all or any of the rights, powers and remedies available to Mortgagee, whether under this Mortgage, the other Loan Documents, the First Mortgage, Additional Mortgage or the Junior Assignment prior to the sale of the Mortgaged Property or any other enforcement of this Mortgage. Furthermore, Mortgagor and such other persons and entities waive all rights relating to marshaling and agree that Mortgagee shall not be compelled to release any part of the security of this Mortgage, the other Loan Documents, the First Mortgage, the Additional Mortgage or the Junior Assignment or be prevented from foreclosing or enforcing this Mortgage, the other Loan Documents, the First Mortgage, the Additional Mortgage or the Junior Assignment upon all or any part of such security unless the Indebtedness shall have been paid in full and that Mortgagee shall not be compelled to accept or allow any apportionment of the Indebtedness to or among any of the property encumbered by this Mortgage, the other Loan Documents, the First Mortgage, the Additional Mortgage, or the Junior Assignment.
52. Sole Discretion of Mortgagee . Wherever, pursuant to this Mortgage, Mortgagee exercises any right given to it to approve or disapprove, or any arrangement or term is to be satisfactory to Mortgagee, the decision of Mortgagee to approve or disapprove or to decide that arrangements or terms are satisfactory or not satisfactory shall be in the sole discretion of Mortgagee and shall be final and conclusive, except as may be otherwise specifically provided herein.

(l) Mortgagor and Mortgagee understand and agree that any Event of Default hereunder shall constitute an Event of Default under the First Loan Documents and under the Third Mortgage.
(m) Any advance, re-advance or new loan made by First Mortgagee under the First Loan Documents (whether or not paid to Borrower) shall constitute an Event of Default hereunder, unless first approved in writing by Mortgagee.

1. Payment of Principal and Interest . Principal and interest shall be paid as follows:
(a) If the loan proceeds are not disbursed on the first day of a month, then interest only at the Applicable Interest Rate from and including the date of disbursement of the loan proceeds to the first day of the month following such disbursement shall be due and payable in advance on the date of such disbursement;
(b) Interest only is to be paid in installments as follows: $107,769.33 on the first day of April, 2008 and on the first day of each calendar month thereafter up to and including the first day of March, 2013;
(c) Principal and interest is to be paid in installments as follows: $127,965.75 on the first day of April, 2013, and on the first day of each calendar month thereafter up to and including the first day of February, 2018; and
(d) The outstanding principal balance and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon and all other sums and fees due under this Note shall be due and payable on the first day of March, 2018 (the Maturity Date ).
Interest on the principal balance of this Note shall be calculated on a monthly basis using, as the agreed method of calculation, a three hundred sixty (360) day year consisting of twelve (12) months of thirty (30) days each; provided , however , that interest for a period of less than a full month shall be calculated by multiplying the actual number of days elapsed during such partial month by a daily rate based upon a three hundred sixty-five day year and the interest rate then due under this Note.
The term Applicable Interest Rate as used in this Note shall mean from the date of disbursement of the loan proceeds through and including the Maturity Date, a rate of Six and Seventeen One-Hundredths Percent (6.17%) per annum.
If at any time Payee receives, from Maker or otherwise, any amount applicable to the Debt (hereinafter defined) which is less than all amounts due and payable at such time, Payee may apply that payment to amounts then due and payable in any manner and in any order determined by Payee, in Payees sole discretion. Payee shall, however, be under no obligation to accept any amount less than all amounts then due and payable. Maker agrees that neither Payees acceptance of a payment from Maker in an amount that is less than all amounts then due and payable nor Payees application of such payment shall constitute or be deemed to constitute either a waiver of the unpaid amounts or an accord and satisfaction. This provision shall control notwithstanding any inconsistent direction by Maker or any other obligor hereunder.
This Note is issued by Maker to Payee pursuant to a certain Loan Agreement by and among Maker and John Hancock of even date herewith (the Loan Agreement ) whereby John Hancock has agreed to make three (3) separate loans to Maker in the aggregate principal amount of $105,000,000.00. This Note evidences a portion of one of such loans, which loan is in the aggregate principal amount of $32,585,000.00 (the NJ Loan ), as set forth in the Loan Agreement. Reference is hereby made to the Loan Agreement for a full statement of the rights of the holder of, and the nature and extent of the security for, this Note. The whole of the principal sum of this Note, together with all interest accrued and unpaid thereon and all other sums due under this Note, any other mortgage note evidencing any other portion of the NJ Loan, and the Loan Agreement and any other instrument now or hereafter evidencing, securing, guaranteeing or executed in connection with the Loan Agreement or the indebtedness evidenced hereby (the Loan Documents ) (all such sums hereinafter collectively referred to as the Debt ) shall without notice become immediately due and payable at the option of Payee on the happening of an Event of Default as the same is defined in the Loan Agreement (hereinafter defined). All of the terms, covenants and conditions contained in the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents are hereby made part of this Note to the same extent and with the same force as if they were fully set forth herein. In the event of any conflict between the terms of the Note and the terms of the Loan Agreement, the Mortgages and other security instruments, the terms of this Note shall govern, except as specifically provided herein or in the Loan Agreement.
2. Prepayment . Except as provided below, Maker may not prepay the loan evidenced by this Note in whole or in part.
On or after the end of the fifth (5 th ) Loan Year (as hereinafter defined), on any scheduled payment date and subject to giving Payee not less than thirty (30) nor more than ninety (90) days prior written notice specifying the scheduled payment date on which prepayment is to be made (the Prepayment Date ), Maker may prepay the entire principal amount together with any and all accrued interest and other sums due under the Loan Documents, and subject to payment of a prepayment premium equal to the greater of:
(a) the positive amount, if any, equal to (i) the sum of the present values of all scheduled payments due under the Note from the Prepayment Date to and including the Maturity Date, minus (ii) the principal balance of the Note immediately prior to such prepayment; or
(b) 1.0% of the principal balance of the Note immediately prior to such prepayment.
All present values shall be calculated as of the Prepayment Date, using a discount rate, compounded monthly, equal to the yield rate plus twenty-five (25) basis points, converted to its monthly equivalent, of the United States Treasury Security having the closest maturity date to the Maturity Date of the Note as established in the Wall Street Journal or other business publication of general circulation five (5) business days before the Prepayment Date.
In the event that the yield rate on publicly traded United States Treasury Securities is not obtainable, then the nearest equivalent issue or index shall be selected, at Payees reasonable determination, and used to calculate the prepayment premium.
The loan evidenced by this Note will be open to prepayment without premium on any scheduled payment date during the last ninety (90) days of the term of this Note.
If any notice of prepayment is given, the principal balance of the loan evidenced by this Note and the other sums required pursuant to this Section 2 shall be due and payable on the Prepayment Date, unless Maker provides written notice to Payee that it is revoking said prepayment notice no later than five (5) business days prior to the Prepayment Date.
Provided no default exists under the Loan Documents, the above premium shall not be applicable to a prepayment resulting from Payees election to require insurance loss proceeds or condemnation awards to be applied to a payment of principal.
No partial prepayment shall be allowed.
The Loan Year is defined as any twelve month period commencing with the date on which the first monthly installment is due or any anniversary thereof.
3. Acceleration/Default . Maker acknowledges that the loan evidenced by this Note was made on the basis and assumption that Payee would receive the payments of principal and interest set forth herein for the full term of this Note. Therefore, whenever the Maturity Date of the loan evidenced by this Note has been accelerated by reason of an Event of Default under the Loan Documents, which Event of Default occurs prior to the time period, if any, in which prepayment is allowed and prior to the date on which the full amount of the balance of principal and interest then remaining unpaid shall be due, including an acceleration by reason of sale, conveyance, further encumbrance or other Event of Default (which acceleration shall be at Payees sole option), there shall be due, in addition to the outstanding principal balance, accrued interest and other sums due under the Loan Documents, a premium equal to the greater of:
(a) The sum obtained by adding:
(i) the positive amount, if any, equal to (aa) the sum of the present values of all scheduled payments due under this Note from the date of said payment to and including the Maturity Date of the Note, minus (bb) the then outstanding principal balance of the Note, and
(ii) 1.0 % of the then outstanding principal balance of the Note; or
(b) An amount equal to 10.0 % of the then outstanding principal balance of the Note.
All present values shall be calculated as of the date of said payment, using a discount rate, compounded monthly, equal to the yield rate, converted to its monthly equivalent, of the United States Treasury Security having the closest maturity date to the Maturity Date of the Note as established in the Wall Street Journal or other business publication of general circulation five (5) business days before the date of said payment. In the event that the yield rate on publicly traded United States Treasury Securities is not obtainable, then the nearest equivalent issue or index shall be selected, at Payees reasonable determination, and used to calculate the prepayment premium.
If an Event of Default occurs on or after the date on which prepayment is permitted, then in lieu of the above premium, payment of a premium calculated in the manner set forth in Section 2 hereof shall be required.
A tender of the amount necessary to satisfy the entire indebtedness, paid at any time following such Event of Default or acceleration, including at a foreclosure sale or during any subsequent redemption period, if any, shall be deemed a voluntary prepayment, and, at Payees option, such payment shall include a premium as described above.
4. Default Rate . Maker does hereby agree that upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and while any Event of Default exists, including, without limitation, the failure of Maker to pay the Debt in full on the Maturity Date, Payee shall be entitled to receive and Maker shall pay interest on the entire unpaid principal sum, effective from the date of Makers initial default with respect to such Event of Default without allowance for any applicable notice and/or grace period, at a rate (the Default Rate ) equal to seven percent (7%) above the Applicable Interest Rate, but in no event to exceed the highest rate permitted under the laws of the jurisdiction where the property secured by the Mortgage is situated. Notwithstanding the provisions of any statute or regulation to the contrary, the Default Rate shall apply to all sums evidenced hereby upon, during and after an Event of Default as provided herein, and also after entry of a judgment or judgments against Maker (whether in a mortgage foreclosure action or otherwise), and whether or not any event described in Paragraph 3.12 of the Loan Agreement hereof has occurred. This charge shall be added to the Debt, and shall be deemed secured by the Mortgage.
This clause, however, shall not be construed as an agreement or privilege to extend the date of the payment of the Debt, nor as a waiver of any other right or remedy available to Payee by reason of the occurrence of any Event of Default.
5. Late Charge . If any monthly principal and interest payment payable under this Note is not paid in full within five (5) days of the date on which it is due, Maker shall pay to Payee an amount equal to the lesser of five percent (5%) of such unpaid sum or the maximum amount permitted by applicable law to defray the expenses incurred by Payee in handling and processing such delinquent payment and to compensate Payee for the loss of the use of such delinquent payment and such amount shall be secured by the Loan Documents.
6. Security for Loan . This Note is secured by, among other things, the Mortgage and certain other Loan Documents as set forth in the Loan Agreement. The term Mortgage as used in this Note shall mean that certain Mortgage, Assignment of Leases and Rents, Security Agreement and Fixture Filing dated the date hereof in the principal sum of the NJ Loan given by Maker for the use and benefit of Payee covering certain premises located at 100 American Road, Morris Plains, New Jersey, 200 American Road, Morris Plains, New Jersey, 300 American Road, Morris Plains, New Jersey, 400 American Road, Morris Plains, New Jersey and 500 American Road, Morris Plains, New Jersey.
7. Compliance with Law . It is expressly stipulated and agreed to be the intent of Maker and Payee at all times to comply with applicable state law or applicable United States federal law (to the extent that it permits Payee to contract for, charge, take, reserve or receive a greater amount of interest than under state law) and that this paragraph shall control every other covenant and agreement in this Note, the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents. If the applicable law (state or federal) is ever judicially interpreted so as to render usurious any amount called for under this Note or any of the other Loan Documents, or contracted for, charged, taken, reserved or received with respect to the Debt, or if Payees exercise of the option to accelerate the Maturity Date, or if any prepayment by Maker results in Makers having paid any interest in excess of that permitted by applicable law, then it is Payees express intent that all excess amounts theretofore collected by Payee shall be credited on the principal balance of this Note and all other Debt and the provisions of this Note, and the other Loan Documents immediately be deemed reformed and the amounts thereafter collectible hereunder and thereunder reduced, without the necessity of the execution of any new documents, so as to comply with the applicable law, but so as to permit the recovery of the fullest amount otherwise called for hereunder or thereunder. All sums paid or agreed to be paid to Payee for the use or forbearance of the Debt shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread throughout the full stated term of the Debt until payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of the Debt does not exceed the maximum lawful rate from time to time in effect and applicable to the Debt for so long as the Debt is outstanding. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or in any of the other Loan Documents, it is not the intention of Payee to accelerate the maturity of any interest that has not accrued at the time of such acceleration or to collect unearned interest at the time of such acceleration.
8. Amendments . This Note may not be modified, amended, waived, extended, changed, discharged or terminated orally or by any act or failure to act on the part of Maker or Payee, but only by an agreement in writing signed by the party against whom enforcement of any modification, amendment, waiver, extension, change, discharge or termination is sought.
9. Joint and Several Liability . If Maker consists of more than one person or party, the obligations and liabilities of each such person or party shall be joint and several.
10. Construction . Whenever used, the singular number shall include the plural, the plural the singular, and the words Payee and Maker shall include their respective successors, assigns, heirs, executors and administrators.
11. Waivers . Maker and all others who may become liable for the payment of all or any part of the Debt do hereby severally waive presentment and demand for payment, notice of dishonor, protest, notice of protest and non-payment and notice of intent to accelerate the maturity hereof (and of such acceleration). No release of any security for the Debt or extension of time for payment of this Note or any installment hereof and no alteration, amendment or waiver of any provision of this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or any other Loan Documents made by agreement between Payee and any other person or party shall release, modify, amend, waive, extend, change, discharge, terminate or affect the liability of Maker and any other who may become liable for the payment of all or any part of the Debt, under this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or any other Loan Documents.
12. Authority . Maker (and the undersigned representative of Maker, if any) represents that Maker has full power, authority and legal right to execute, deliver and perform its obligations pursuant to this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents and that this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents constitute valid and binding obligations of Maker.
13. Time . Time is of the essence of this Note.
14. Replacement Note . In the event of the loss, theft or destruction of this Note, upon Makers receipt of a reasonably satisfactory indemnification agreement executed in favor of Maker by Payee or in the event of the mutilation of this Note, upon the surrender of the mutilated Note by Payee to Maker, Maker shall execute and deliver to Payee a new mortgage note in form and content identical to this Note in lieu of the lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note.
15. Notice . All notices required to be given pursuant hereto shall be given in the manner specified in the Loan Agreement directed to the parties at their respective addresses as provided therein.
16. Costs and Expenses . Maker shall pay all expenses and costs, including fees and out-of-pocket expenses of attorneys and expert witnesses and costs of investigation incurred by Payee as a result of any Event of Default or in connection with efforts to collect any amount due under this Note or to enforce the provisions of any of the Loan Documents, including those incurred in post-judgment collection efforts and in any bankruptcy proceeding (including any action for relief from the automatic stay of any bankruptcy proceeding) or judicial or non-judicial foreclosure proceeding.
17. Forbearance . Any forbearance by Payee in exercising any right or remedy under this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or any other Loan Document or otherwise afforded by applicable law shall not be a waiver of or preclude the exercise of that or any other right or remedy. The acceptance by Payee of any payment after the due date of such payment or in an amount which is less than the required payment shall not be a waiver of Payees right to require prompt payment when due of all other payments or to exercise any right or remedy with respect to any failure to make prompt payment. Enforcement by Payee of any security for Makers obligations under this Note shall not constitute an election by Payee of remedies so as to preclude the exercise of any other right or remedy available to Payee.
18. Section Headings . The Section headings inserted in this Note have been included for convenience only and are not intended and shall not be construed to limit or define in any way the substance of any section contained herein.

1. Payment of Principal and Interest . Principal and interest shall be paid as follows:
(a) If the loan proceeds are not disbursed on the first day of a month, then interest only at the Applicable Interest Rate from and including the date of disbursement of the loan proceeds to the first day of the month following such disbursement shall be due and payable in advance on the date of such disbursement;
(b) Interest only is to be paid in installments as follows: $52,700.00 on the first day of April, 2008 and on the first day of each calendar month thereafter up to and including the first day of February, 2013; and
(c) The outstanding principal balance and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon and all other sums and fees due under this Note shall be due and payable on the first day of March, 2013 (the Maturity Date ).
Interest on the principal balance of this Note shall be calculated on a monthly basis using, as the agreed method of calculation, a three hundred sixty (360) day year consisting of twelve (12) months of thirty (30) days each; provided , however, that interest for a period of less than a full month shall be calculated by multiplying the actual number of days elapsed during such partial month by a daily rate based upon a three hundred sixty-five day year and the interest rate then due under this Note.
The term Applicable Interest Rate as used in this Note shall mean from the date of disbursement of the loan proceeds through and including the Maturity Date, a rate of Five and Forty-Four One-Hundredths Percent (5.44%) per annum.
If at any time Payee receives, from Maker or otherwise, any amount applicable to the Debt (hereinafter defined) which is less than all amounts due and payable at such time, Payee may apply that payment to amounts then due and payable in any manner and in any order determined by Payee, in Payees sole discretion. Payee shall, however, be under no obligation to accept any amount less than all amounts then due and payable. Maker agrees that neither Payees acceptance of a payment from Maker in an amount that is less than all amounts then due and payable nor Payees application of such payment shall constitute or be deemed to constitute either a waiver of the unpaid amounts or an accord and satisfaction. This provision shall control notwithstanding any inconsistent direction by Maker or any other obligor hereunder.
This Note is issued by Maker to Payee pursuant to a certain Loan Agreement by and among Maker and John Hancock of even date herewith (the Loan Agreement ) whereby John Hancock has agreed to make three (3) separate loans to Maker in the aggregate principal amount of $105,000,000.00. This Note evidences a portion of one of such loans, which loan is in the aggregate principal amount of $32,585,000.00 (the NJ Loan ), as set forth in the Loan Agreement. Reference is hereby made to the Loan Agreement for a full statement of the rights of the holder of, and the nature and extent of the security for, this Note. The whole of the principal sum of this Note, together with all interest accrued and unpaid thereon and all other sums due under this Note, any other mortgage note evidencing any other portion of the NJ Loan, and the Loan Agreement and any other instrument now or hereafter evidencing, securing, guaranteeing or executed in connection with the Loan Agreement or the indebtedness evidenced hereby (the Loan Documents ) (all such sums hereinafter collectively referred to as the Debt ) shall without notice become immediately due and payable at the option of Payee on the happening of an Event of Default as the same is defined in the Loan Agreement (hereinafter defined). All of the terms, covenants and conditions contained in the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents are hereby made part of this Note to the same extent and with the same force as if they were fully set forth herein. In the event of any conflict between the terms of the Note and the terms of the Loan Agreement, the Mortgages and other security instruments, the terms of this Note shall govern, except as specifically provided herein or in the Loan Agreement.
2. Prepayment . Except as provided below, Maker may not prepay the loan evidenced by this Note in whole or in part.
On or after the end of the third (3 rd ) Loan Year (as hereinafter defined), on any scheduled payment date and subject to giving Payee not less than thirty (30) nor more than ninety (90) days prior written notice specifying the scheduled payment date on which prepayment is to be made (the Prepayment Date ), Maker may prepay the entire principal amount together with any and all accrued interest and other sums due under the Loan Documents, and subject to payment of a prepayment premium equal to the greater of:
(a) the positive amount, if any, equal to (i) the sum of the present values of all scheduled payments due under the Note from the Prepayment Date to and including the Maturity Date, minus (ii) the principal balance of the Note immediately prior to such prepayment; or
(b) 1.0% of the principal balance of the Note immediately prior to such prepayment.
All present values shall be calculated as of the Prepayment Date, using a discount rate, compounded monthly, equal to the yield rate plus twenty-five (25) basis points, converted to its monthly equivalent, of the United States Treasury Security having the closest maturity date to the Maturity Date of the Note as established in the Wall Street Journal or other business publication of general circulation five (5) business days before the Prepayment Date.
In the event that the yield rate on publicly traded United States Treasury Securities is not obtainable, then the nearest equivalent issue or index shall be selected, at Payees reasonable determination, and used to calculate the prepayment premium.
The loan evidenced by this Note will be open to prepayment without premium on any scheduled payment date during the last ninety (90) days of the term of this Note.
If any notice of prepayment is given, the principal balance of the loan evidenced by this Note and the other sums required pursuant to this Section 2 shall be due and payable on the Prepayment Date, unless Maker provides written notice to Payee that it is revoking said prepayment notice no later than five (5) business days prior to the Prepayment Date.
Provided no default exists under the Loan Documents, the above premium shall not be applicable to a prepayment resulting from Payees election to require insurance loss proceeds or condemnation awards to be applied to a payment of principal.
No partial prepayment shall be allowed.
The Loan Year is defined as any twelve month period commencing with the date on which the first monthly installment is due or any anniversary thereof.
3. Acceleration/Default . Maker acknowledges that the loan evidenced by this Note was made on the basis and assumption that Payee would receive the payments of principal and interest set forth herein for the full term of this Note. Therefore, whenever the Maturity Date of the loan evidenced by this Note has been accelerated by reason of an Event of Default under the Loan Documents, which Event of Default occurs prior to the time period, if any, in which prepayment is allowed and prior to the date on which the full amount of the balance of principal and interest then remaining unpaid shall be due, including an acceleration by reason of sale, conveyance, further encumbrance or other Event of Default (which acceleration shall be at Payees sole option), there shall be due, in addition to the outstanding principal balance, accrued interest and other sums due under the Loan Documents, a premium equal to the greater of:
(a) The sum obtained by adding:
(i) the positive amount, if any, equal to (aa) the sum of the present values of all scheduled payments due under this Note from the date of said payment to and including the Maturity Date of the Note, minus (bb) the then outstanding principal balance of the Note, and
(ii) 1.0 % of the then outstanding principal balance of the Note; or
(b) An amount equal to 10.0 % of the then outstanding principal balance of the Note.
All present values shall be calculated as of the date of said payment, using a discount rate, compounded monthly, equal to the yield rate, converted to its monthly equivalent, of the United States Treasury Security having the closest maturity date to the Maturity Date of the Note as established in the Wall Street Journal or other business publication of general circulation five (5) business days before the date of said payment. In the event that the yield rate on publicly traded United States Treasury Securities is not obtainable, then the nearest equivalent issue or index shall be selected, at Payees reasonable determination, and used to calculate the prepayment premium.
If an Event of Default occurs on or after the date on which prepayment is permitted, then in lieu of the above premium, payment of a premium calculated in the manner set forth in Section 2 hereof shall be required.
A tender of the amount necessary to satisfy the entire indebtedness, paid at any time following such Event of Default or acceleration, including at a foreclosure sale or during any subsequent redemption period, if any, shall be deemed a voluntary prepayment, and, at Payees option, such payment shall include a premium as described above.
4. Default Rate . Maker does hereby agree that upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and while any Event of Default exists, including, without limitation, the failure of Maker to pay the Debt in full on the Maturity Date, Payee shall be entitled to receive and Maker shall pay interest on the entire unpaid principal sum, effective from the date of Makers initial default with respect to such Event of Default without allowance for any applicable notice and/or grace period, at a rate (the Default Rate ) equal to seven percent (7%) above the Applicable Interest Rate, but in no event to exceed the highest rate permitted under the laws of the jurisdiction where the property secured by the Mortgage is situated. Notwithstanding the provisions of any statute or regulation to the contrary, the Default Rate shall apply to all sums evidenced hereby upon, during and after an Event of Default as provided herein, and also after entry of a judgment or judgments against Maker (whether in a mortgage foreclosure action or otherwise), and whether or not any event described in Paragraph 3.12 of the Loan Agreement hereof has occurred. This charge shall be added to the Debt, and shall be deemed secured by the Mortgage. This clause, however, shall not be construed as an agreement or privilege to extend the date of the payment of the Debt, nor as a waiver of any other right or remedy available to Payee by reason of the occurrence of any Event of Default.
5. Late Charge . If any monthly principal and interest payment payable under this Note is not paid in full within five (5) days of the date on which it is due, Maker shall pay to Payee an amount equal to the lesser of five percent (5%) of such unpaid sum or the maximum amount permitted by applicable law to defray the expenses incurred by Payee in handling and processing such delinquent payment and to compensate Payee for the loss of the use of such delinquent payment and such amount shall be secured by the Loan Documents.
6. Security for Loan . This Note is secured by, among other things, the Mortgage and certain other Loan Documents as set forth in the Loan Agreement. The term Mortgage as used in this Note shall mean that certain Open-End Mortgage Deed, Assignment of Leases and Rents, Security Agreement and Fixture Filing dated the date hereof in the principal sum of the NJ Loan given by Maker for the use and benefit of Payee covering certain premises located at 100 American Road, Morris Plains, New Jersey, 200 American Road, Morris Plains, New Jersey, 300 American Road, Morris Plains, New Jersey, 400 American Road, Morris Plains, New Jersey, and 500 American Road, Morris Plains, New Jersey.
7. Compliance with Law . It is expressly stipulated and agreed to be the intent of Maker and Payee at all times to comply with applicable state law or applicable United States federal law (to the extent that it permits Payee to contract for, charge, take, reserve or receive a greater amount of interest than under state law) and that this paragraph shall control every other covenant and agreement in this Note, the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents. If the applicable law (state or federal) is ever judicially interpreted so as to render usurious any amount called for under this Note or any of the other Loan Documents, or contracted for, charged, taken, reserved or received with respect to the Debt, or if Payees exercise of the option to accelerate the Maturity Date, or if any prepayment by Maker results in Makers having paid any interest in excess of that permitted by applicable law, then it is Payees express intent that all excess amounts theretofore collected by Payee shall be credited on the principal balance of this Note and all other Debt and the provisions of this Note, and the other Loan Documents immediately be deemed reformed and the amounts thereafter collectible hereunder and thereunder reduced, without the necessity of the execution of any new documents, so as to comply with the applicable law, but so as to permit the recovery of the fullest amount otherwise called for hereunder or thereunder. All sums paid or agreed to be paid to Payee for the use or forbearance of the Debt shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread throughout the full stated term of the Debt until payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of the Debt does not exceed the maximum lawful rate from time to time in effect and applicable to the Debt for so long as the Debt is outstanding. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or in any of the other Loan Documents, it is not the intention of Payee to accelerate the maturity of any interest that has not accrued at the time of such acceleration or to collect unearned interest at the time of such acceleration.
8. Amendments . This Note may not be modified, amended, waived, extended, changed, discharged or terminated orally or by any act or failure to act on the part of Maker or Payee, but only by an agreement in writing signed by the party against whom enforcement of any modification, amendment, waiver, extension, change, discharge or termination is sought.
9. Joint and Several Liability . If Maker consists of more than one person or party, the obligations and liabilities of each such person or party shall be joint and several.
10. Construction . Whenever used, the singular number shall include the plural, the plural the singular, and the words Payee and Maker shall include their respective successors, assigns, heirs, executors and administrators.
11. Waivers . Maker and all others who may become liable for the payment of all or any part of the Debt do hereby severally waive presentment and demand for payment, notice of dishonor, protest, notice of protest and non-payment and notice of intent to accelerate the maturity hereof (and of such acceleration). No release of any security for the Debt or extension of time for payment of this Note or any installment hereof and no alteration, amendment or waiver of any provision of this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or any other Loan Documents made by agreement between Payee and any other person or party shall release, modify, amend, waive, extend, change, discharge, terminate or affect the liability of Maker and any other who may become liable for the payment of all or any part of the Debt, under this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or any other Loan Documents.
12. Authority . Maker (and the undersigned representative of Maker, if any) represents that Maker has full power, authority and legal right to execute, deliver and perform its obligations pursuant to this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents and that this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents constitute valid and binding obligations of Maker.
13. Time . Time is of the essence of this Note.
14. Replacement Note . In the event of the loss, theft or destruction of this Note, upon Makers receipt of a reasonably satisfactory indemnification agreement executed in favor of Maker by Payee or in the event of the mutilation of this Note, upon the surrender of the mutilated Note by Payee to Maker, Maker shall execute and deliver to Payee a new mortgage note in form and content identical to this Note in lieu of the lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note.
15. Notice . All notices required to be given pursuant hereto shall be given in the manner specified in the Loan Agreement directed to the parties at their respective addresses as provided therein.
16. Costs and Expenses . Maker shall pay all expenses and costs, including fees and out-of-pocket expenses of attorneys and expert witnesses and costs of investigation incurred by Payee as a result of any Event of Default or in connection with efforts to collect any amount due under this Note or to enforce the provisions of any of the Loan Documents, including those incurred in post-judgment collection efforts and in any bankruptcy proceeding (including any action for relief from the automatic stay of any bankruptcy proceeding) or judicial or non-judicial foreclosure proceeding.
17. Forbearance . Any forbearance by Payee in exercising any right or remedy under this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or any other Loan Document or otherwise afforded by applicable law shall not be a waiver of or preclude the exercise of that or any other right or remedy. The acceptance by Payee of any payment after the due date of such payment or in an amount which is less than the required payment shall not be a waiver of Payees right to require prompt payment when due of all other payments or to exercise any right or remedy with respect to any failure to make prompt payment. Enforcement by Payee of any security for Makers obligations under this Note shall not constitute an election by Payee of remedies so as to preclude the exercise of any other right or remedy available to Payee.
18. Section Headings . The Section headings inserted in this Note have been included for convenience only and are not intended and shall not be construed to limit or define in any way the substance of any section contained herein.
19. Limitation on Liability . Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, but subject to the obligations of Section 6.6 of the Loan Agreement, any claim based on or in respect of any liability of Maker under this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or any other Loan Document shall be enforced only against the Mortgaged Property (as such term is defined in the Mortgage) and any other collateral now or hereafter given to secure this Note and not against any other assets, properties or funds of Maker; provided , however , that the liability of Maker for loss, costs or damage arising out of the matters described in the subsections below (collectively, Non-Recourse Carveout Obligations ) shall not be limited solely to the Mortgaged Property and other collateral now or hereafter given to secure this Note but shall include all of the assets, properties and funds of Maker: (i) fraud, misrepresentation and waste; (ii) any rents, issues or profits collected more than one (1) month in advance of their due dates; (iii) any misapplication of rents, issues or profits, security deposits and any other payments from tenants or occupants (including, without limitation, lease termination fees), insurance proceeds, condemnation awards or other sums of a similar nature; (iv) liability under environmental covenants, conditions and indemnities contained in the Loan Agreement, including, without limitation, Section 3.9, the Mortgage and in any separate environmental indemnity agreements; (v) personalty or fixtures removed or allowed to be removed by or on behalf of Maker and not replaced by items of equal or greater value or functionality than the personalty or fixtures so removed; (vi) failure to pay taxes, assessments or ground rents prior to delinquency, or to pay charges for labor, materials or other charges which can create liens on any portion of the Mortgaged Property before such charges become a lien on such Mortgaged Property or any portion thereof and any sums expended by Payee in the performance of or compliance with the obligations of Maker under the Loan Documents, including, without limitation, sums expended to pay taxes or assessments or hazard insurance premiums or bills for utilities or other services or products for the benefit of the Mortgaged Property; (vii) the unauthorized sale, conveyance or transfer of title to the Mortgaged Property or encumbrance of the Mortgaged Property; (viii) the failure of Maker to maintain its status as a single purpose, bankruptcy-remote entity pursuant to its organizational documents and the Loan Documents; (ix) a violation of the provisions of Section 3.7(h) of the Loan Agreement; (x) the filing of any action to partition the Mortgaged Property or any Individual Property (as defined in the Loan Agreement) or the occurrence of any such partition or any sale pursuant to any such action; (xi) the transfer of any TIC (as defined in the Loan Agreement) interests in any of the Mortgaged Property or any Individual Property, or any direct or indirect interests in the holder of any such TIC interest, other than as expressly permitted under Section 3.4(h) of the Loan Agreement; (xii) the termination, cancellation or non-renewal of an Approved Manager (as defined in the Loan Agreement) or any other failure of an Approved Manager to serve as manager of any Permitted TIC (as defined in the Loan Agreement); (xiii) the failure of any Approved Manager to meet the Management Requirements (as defined in the Loan Agreement); and (xiv) attorneys fees, court costs and other expenses incurred by Payee in connection with enforcement of its remedies under the Loan Documents, including, but not limited to, in connection with any bankruptcy proceeding or reorganization brought by or against Maker or any Principal (as defined in the Loan Agreement) of Maker. Nothing herein shall be deemed (w) to be a waiver of any right which Payee may have under any bankruptcy law of the United States or the state where the Mortgaged Property is located including, but not limited to, Section 506(a), 506(b), 1111(b) or any other provisions of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code to file a claim for the full amount of the indebtedness secured by the Mortgage or to require that all collateral securing the indebtedness secured hereby shall continue to secure all of the indebtedness owing to Payee in accordance with this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents; (x) to impair the validity of the indebtedness secured by the Mortgage; (y) to impair the right of Payee as mortgagee or secured party to commence an action to foreclose any lien or security interest; or (z) to modify, diminish or discharge the liability of any guarantor under any guaranty or of any indemnitor under any indemnity agreement.

3. Condemnation . Mortgagor shall promptly give Mortgagee written notice of the actual or threatened commencement of any condemnation or eminent domain proceeding and shall deliver to Mortgagee copies of any and all papers served in connection with such proceedings. Following the occurrence of a condemnation, Mortgagor, regardless of whether an award is available, shall promptly proceed to restore, repair, replace or rebuild the Improvements to the extent practicable to be of at least equal value and of substantially the same character as prior to such condemnation, all to be effected in accordance with applicable law. Notwithstanding any taking by any public or quasi-public authority through eminent domain or otherwise (including but not limited to any transfer made in lieu of or in anticipation of the exercise of such taking), Mortgagor shall continue to pay the Indebtedness at the time and in the manner provided for its payment in the Note, in this Mortgage and the other Loan Documents and the Indebtedness shall not be reduced until any award or payment therefor shall have been actually received after expenses of collection and applied by Mortgagee to the discharge of the Indebtedness.

Mortgagee may, at Mortgagees election, use the award in any one or more of the following ways: (a) apply any such award or payment (for purposes of this Paragraph 3 , the award or payment that may be made in any condemnation or eminent domain proceeding shall mean the entire award allocated to Mortgagor in any capacity) to the discharge of the Indebtedness whether or not then due and payable (such application to be without prepayment fee or premium, except that if an Event of Default, or an event which with notice and/or the passage of time, or both, would constitute an Event of Default, has occurred, then such application shall be subject to the applicable premium computed in accordance with the Note), (b) use the same or any part thereof to fulfill any of the covenants contained herein as the Mortgagee may determine, (c) use the same or any part thereof to replace or restore the Mortgaged Property to a condition satisfactory to the Mortgagee, or (d) release the same to the Mortgagor.

4. Leases and Rents .
(a) Mortgagor does hereby absolutely and unconditionally assign to Mortgagee its right, title and interest in all current and future Leases and Rents and all proceeds from the sale, cancellation, surrender or other disposition of the Leases, it being intended by Mortgagor that this assignment constitutes a present, absolute assignment and not an assignment for additional security only. Such assignment to Mortgagee shall not be construed to bind Mortgagee to the performance of any of the covenants, conditions or provisions contained in any such Lease or otherwise to impose any obligation upon Mortgagee. Mortgagor agrees to execute and deliver to Mortgagee such additional instruments in form and substance satisfactory to Mortgagee, as may hereafter be requested by Mortgagee to further evidence and confirm such assignment.
Nevertheless, subject to the terms of this Paragraph 4 , Mortgagee grants to Mortgagor a revocable license to operate and manage the Mortgaged Property and to collect the Rents.

Mortgagee is hereby granted and assigned by Mortgagor the right, at its option, upon the revocation of the license granted herein to enter upon the Mortgaged Property in person, by agent or by court-appointed receiver to collect the Rents. Any Rents collected after the revocation of the license herein granted may, subject to the rights of the First Mortgagee and the Second Mortgagee, be applied toward payment of the Indebtedness in such priority and proportion as Mortgagee in its discretion shall deem proper. It is further the intent of Mortgagor and Mortgagee that the Rents hereby absolutely assigned are no longer, during the term of this Mortgage, property of Mortgagor or property of any estate of Mortgagor as defined in Section 541 of the Bankruptcy Code and shall not constitute collateral, cash or otherwise, of Mortgagor. The term Rents as used herein shall mean the gross rents without deduction or offsets of any kind.
(b) All Leases executed after the date of this Mortgage shall provide that they are subordinate to this Mortgage and that the lessee agrees to attom to Mortgagee; provided , however , that nothing herein shall affect Mortgagees right to designate from time to time any one or more Leases as being superior to this Mortgage and Mortgagor shall execute and deliver to Mortgagee and shall cause to be executed and delivered to Mortgagee from each tenant under such Lease any instrument or agreement as Mortgagee may deem necessary to make such Lease superior to this Mortgage.

(d) With respect to each Lease, Mortgagor shall (i) observe and perform each and every provision thereof on the lessors part to be fulfilled or performed under each Lease and not do or permit to be done anything to impair the value of the Lease as security for the Loan, including surrender or voluntary termination of any Lease, (ii) promptly send to Mortgagee copies of all notices of default which Mortgagor shall send or receive thereunder, (iii) enforce all of the terms, covenants and conditions contained in such Lease upon the lessees part to be performed, short of termination thereof, (iv) execute and deliver, at the request of Mortgagee, all such further assurances, confirmations and assignments in connection with the Mortgaged Property as Mortgagee shall, from time to time, require and (v) upon request, furnish Mortgagee with executed copies of all Leases; provided , however , the notice to Mortgagee referenced in subsection (ii) above and the restriction on termination of a Lease in connection with the enforcement of its terms, covenants and conditions set forth in (iii) above shall not be required or apply, as the case may be, for any Small Lease.

Mortgagor for itself and for any and all persons who may at any time claim through or under Mortgagor or who hereafter may otherwise acquire any interest in or title to all or any part of the Mortgaged Property or any other security for the Obligations, hereby irrevocably waives and releases, to the extent permitted by law, all benefit of any and all laws that would limit or prohibit the effectiveness of anything set forth in this Section.

1. Payment of Principal and Interest . Principal and interest shall be paid as follows:
(a) If the loan proceeds are not disbursed on the first day of a month, then interest only at the Applicable Interest Rate from and including the date of disbursement of the loan proceeds to the first day of the month following such disbursement shall be due and payable in advance on the date of such disbursement;
(b) Interest only is to be paid in installments as follows: $157,592.08 on the first day of April, 2008 and on the first day of each calendar month thereafter up to and including the first day of March, 2013;
(c) Principal and interest is to be paid in installments as follows: $187,125.48 on the first day of April, 2013, and on the first day of each calendar month thereafter up to and including the first day of February, 2018; and
(d) The outstanding principal balance and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon and all other sums and fees due under this Note shall be due and payable on the first day of March, 2018 (the Maturity Date ).
Interest on the principal balance of this Note shall be calculated on a monthly basis using, as the agreed method of calculation, a three hundred sixty (360) day year consisting of twelve (12) months of thirty (30) days each; provided , however , that interest for a period of less than a full month shall be calculated by multiplying the actual number of days elapsed during such partial month by a daily rate based upon a three hundred sixty-five day year and the interest rate then due under this Note.
The term Applicable Interest Rate as used in this Note shall mean from the date of disbursement of the loan proceeds through and including the Maturity Date, a rate of Six and Seventeen One-Hundredths Percent (6.17%) per annum.
If at any time Payee receives, from Maker or otherwise, any amount applicable to the Debt (hereinafter defined) which is less than all amounts due and payable at such time, Payee may apply that payment to amounts then due and payable in any manner and in any order determined by Payee, in Payees sole discretion. Payee shall, however, be under no obligation to accept any amount less than all amounts then due and payable. Maker agrees that neither Payees acceptance of a payment from Maker in an amount that is less than all amounts then due and payable nor Payees application of such payment shall constitute or be deemed to constitute either a waiver of the unpaid amounts or an accord and satisfaction. This provision shall control notwithstanding any inconsistent direction by Maker or any other obligor hereunder.
This Note is issued by Maker to Payee pursuant to a certain Loan Agreement by and among Maker and John Hancock of even date herewith (the Loan Agreement ) whereby John Hancock has agreed to make three (3) separate loans to Maker in the aggregate principal amount of $105,000,000.00. This Note evidences a portion of one of such loans, which loan is in the aggregate principal amount of $50,650,000.00 (the NY Loan ), as set forth in the Loan Agreement. Reference is hereby made to the Loan Agreement for a full statement of the rights of the holder of, and the nature and extent of the security for, this Note. The whole of the principal sum of this Note, together with all interest accrued and unpaid thereon and all other sums due under this Note, any other mortgage note evidencing any other portion of the NY Loan, and the Loan Agreement and any other instrument now or hereafter evidencing, securing, guaranteeing or executed in connection with the Loan Agreement or the indebtedness evidenced hereby (the Loan Documents ) (all such sums hereinafter collectively referred to as the Debt ) shall without notice become immediately due and payable at the option of Payee on the happening of an Event of Default as the same is defined in the Loan Agreement (hereinafter defined). All of the terms, covenants and conditions contained in the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents are hereby made part of this Note to the same extent and with the same force as if they were fully set forth herein. In the event of any conflict between the terms of the Note and the terms of the Loan Agreement, the Mortgages and other security instruments, the terms of this Note shall govern, except as specifically provided herein or in the Loan Agreement.
2. Prepayment . Except as provided below, Maker may not prepay the loan evidenced by this Note in whole or in part.
On or after the end of the fifth (5 th ) Loan Year (as hereinafter defined), on any scheduled payment date and subject to giving Payee not less than thirty (30) nor more than ninety (90) days prior written notice specifying the scheduled payment date on which prepayment is to be made (the Prepayment Date ), Maker may prepay the entire principal amount together with any and all accrued interest and other sums due under the Loan Documents, and subject to payment of a prepayment premium equal to the greater of:
(a) the positive amount, if any, equal to (i) the sum of the present values of all scheduled payments due under the Note from the Prepayment Date to and including the Maturity Date, minus (ii) the principal balance of the Note immediately prior to such prepayment; or
(b) 1.0% of the principal balance of the Note immediately prior to such prepayment.
All present values shall be calculated as of the Prepayment Date, using a discount rate, compounded monthly, equal to the yield rate plus twenty-five (25) basis points, converted to its monthly equivalent, of the United States Treasury Security having the closest maturity date to the Maturity Date of the Note as established in the Wall Street Journal or other business publication of general circulation five (5) business days before the Prepayment Date.
In the event that the yield rate on publicly traded United States Treasury Securities is not obtainable, then the nearest equivalent issue or index shall be selected, at Payees reasonable determination, and used to calculate the prepayment premium.
The loan evidenced by this Note will be open to prepayment without premium on any scheduled payment date during the last ninety (90) days of the term of this Note.
If any notice of prepayment is given, the principal balance of the loan evidenced by this Note and the other sums required pursuant to this Section 2 shall be due and payable on the Prepayment Date, unless Maker provides written notice to Payee that it is revoking said prepayment notice no later than five (5) business days prior to the Prepayment Date.
Provided no default exists under the Loan Documents, the above premium shall not be applicable to a prepayment resulting from Payees election to require insurance loss proceeds or condemnation awards to be applied to a payment of principal.
No partial prepayment shall be allowed.
The Loan Year is defined as any twelve month period commencing with the date on which the first monthly installment is due or any anniversary thereof.
3. Acceleration/Default . Maker acknowledges that the loan evidenced by this Note was made on the basis and assumption that Payee would receive the payments of principal and interest set forth herein for the full term of this Note. Therefore, whenever the Maturity Date of the loan evidenced by this Note has been accelerated by reason of an Event of Default under the Loan Documents, which Event of Default occurs prior to the time period, if any, in which prepayment is allowed and prior to the date on which the full amount of the balance of principal and interest then remaining unpaid shall be due, including an acceleration by reason of sale, conveyance, further encumbrance or other Event of Default (which acceleration shall be at Payees sole option), there shall be due, in addition to the outstanding principal balance, accrued interest and other sums due under the Loan Documents, a premium equal to the greater of:
(a) The sum obtained by adding:
(i) the positive amount, if any, equal to (aa) the sum of the present values of all scheduled payments due under this Note from the date of said payment to and including the Maturity Date of the Note, minus (bb) the then outstanding principal balance of the Note, and
(ii) 1.0 % of the then outstanding principal balance of the Note; or
(b) An amount equal to 10.0 % of the then outstanding principal balance of the Note.
All present values shall be calculated as of the date of said payment, using a discount rate, compounded monthly, equal to the yield rate, converted to its monthly equivalent, of the United States Treasury Security having the closest maturity date to the Maturity Date of the Note as established in the Wall Street Journal or other business publication of general circulation five (5) business days before the date of said payment. In the event that the yield rate on publicly traded United States Treasury Securities is not obtainable, then the nearest equivalent issue or index shall be selected, at Payees reasonable determination, and used to calculate the prepayment premium.
If an Event of Default occurs on or after the date on which prepayment is pennitted, then in lieu of the above premium, payment of a premium calculated in the manner set forth in Section 2 hereof shall be required.
A tender of the amount necessary to satisfy the entire indebtedness, paid at any time following such Event of Default or acceleration, including at a foreclosure sale or during any subsequent redemption period, if any, shall be deemed a voluntary prepayment, and, at Payees option, such payment shall include a premium as described above.
4. Default Rate . Maker does hereby agree that upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and while any Event of Default exists, including, without limitation, the failure of Maker to pay the Debt in full on the Maturity Date, Payee shall be entitled to receive and Maker shall pay interest on the entire unpaid principal sum, effective from the date of Makers initial default with respect to such Event of Default without allowance for any applicable notice and/or grace period, at a rate (the Default Rate ) equal to seven percent (7%) above the Applicable Interest Rate, but in no event to exceed the highest rate permitted under the laws of the jurisdiction where the property secured by the Mortgage is situated. Notwithstanding the provisions of any statute or regulation to the contrary, the Default Rate shall apply to all sums evidenced hereby upon, during and after an Event of Default as provided herein, and also after entry of a judgment or judgments against Maker (whether in a mortgage foreclosure action or otherwise), and whether or not any event described in Paragraph 3.12 of the Loan Agreement hereof has occurred. This charge shall be added to the Debt, and shall be deemed secured by the Mortgage.
This clause, however, shall not be construed as an agreement or privilege to extend the date of the payment of the Debt, nor as a waiver of any other right or remedy available to Payee by reason of the occurrence of any Event of Default.
5. Late Charge . If any monthly principal and interest payment payable under this Note is not paid in full within five (5) days of the date on which it is due, Maker shall pay to Payee an amount equal to the lesser of five percent (5%) of such unpaid sum or the maximum amount permitted by applicable law to defray the expenses incurred by Payee in handling and processing such delinquent payment and to compensate Payee for the loss of the use of such delinquent payment and such amount shall be secured by the Loan Documents.
6. Security for Loan . This Note is secured by, among other things, the Mortgage and certain other Loan Documents as set forth in the Loan Agreement. The term Mortgage as used in this Note shall mean that certain Mortgage Deed, Assignment of Leases and Rents, Security Agreement and Fixture Filing dated the date hereof in the principal sum of the NY Loan given by Maker for the use and benefit of Payee covering certain premises located at 103 Fairview Park Drive, 412 Fairview Park Drive, 401 Fieldcrest Drive, 404 Fieldcrest Drive, 199 Ridgewood Drive, and 203 Ridgewood Drive in the Town of Greenburgh, and at 36 Midland Avenue, 100-110 Midland Avenue, 112 Midland Avenue, and 8 Slater Street in the Village of Port Chester, all in the County of Westchester and State of New York, as more particularly described therein.
7. Compliance with Law . It is expressly stipulated and agreed to be the intent of Maker and Payee at all times to comply with applicable state law or applicable United States federal law (to the extent that it permits Payee to contract for, charge, take, reserve or receive a greater amount of interest than under state law) and that this paragraph shall control every other covenant and agreement in this Note, the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents. If the applicable law (state or federal) is ever judicially interpreted so as to render usurious any amount called for under this Note or any of the other Loan Documents, or contracted for, charged, taken, reserved or received with respect to the Debt, or if Payees exercise of the option to accelerate the Maturity Date, or if any prepayment by Maker results in Makers having paid any interest in excess of that permitted by applicable law, then it is Payees express intent that all excess amounts theretofore collected by Payee shall be credited on the principal balance of this Note and all other Debt and the provisions of this Note, and the other Loan Documents immediately be deemed reformed and the amounts thereafter collectible hereunder and thereunder reduced, without the necessity of the execution of any new documents, so as to comply with the applicable law, but so as to permit the recovery of the fullest amount otherwise called for hereunder or thereunder. All sums paid or agreed to be paid to Payee for the use or forbearance of the Debt shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread throughout the full stated term of the Debt until payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of the Debt does not exceed the maximum lawful rate from time to time in effect and applicable to the Debt for so long as the Debt is outstanding. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or in any of the other Loan Documents, it is not the intention of Payee to accelerate the maturity of any interest that has not accrued at the time of such acceleration or to collect unearned interest at the time of such acceleration.
8. Amendments . This Note may not be modified, amended, waived, extended, changed, discharged or terminated orally or by any act or failure to act on the part of Maker or Payee, but only by an agreement in writing signed by the party against whom enforcement of any modification, amendment, waiver, extension, change, discharge or termination is sought.
9. Joint and Several Liability . If Maker consists of more than one person or party, the obligations and liabilities of each such person or party shall be joint and several.
10. Construction . Whenever used, the singular number shall include the plural, the plural the singular, and the words Payee and Maker shall include their respective successors, assigns, heirs, executors and administrators.
11. Waivers . Maker and all others who may become liable for the payment of all or any part of the Debt do hereby severally waive presentment and demand for payment, notice of dishonor, protest, notice of protest and non-payment and notice of intent to accelerate the maturity hereof (and of such acceleration). No release of any security for the Debt or extension of time for payment of this Note or any installment hereof and no alteration, amendment or waiver of any provision of this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or any other Loan Documents made by agreement between Payee and any other person or party shall release, modify, amend, waive, extend, change, discharge, terminate or affect the liability of Maker and any other who may become liable for the payment of all or any part of the Debt, under this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or any other Loan Documents.
12. Authority . Maker (and the undersigned representative of Maker, if any) represents that Maker has full power, authority and legal right to execute, deliver and perform its obligations pursuant to this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents and that this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents constitute valid and binding obligations of Maker.
13. Time . Time is of the essence of this Note.
14. Replacement Note . In the event of the loss, theft or destruction of this Note, upon Makers receipt of a reasonably satisfactory indemnification agreement executed in favor of Maker by Payee or in the event of the mutilation of this Note, upon the surrender of the mutilated Note by Payee to Maker, Maker shall execute and deliver to Payee a new mortgage note in form and content identical to this Note in lieu of the lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note.
15. Notice . All notices required to be given pursuant hereto shall be given in the manner specified in the Loan Agreement directed to the parties at their respective addresses as provided therein.
16. Costs and Expenses . Maker shall pay all expenses and costs, including fees and out-of-pocket expenses of attorneys and expert witnesses and costs of investigation incurred by Payee as a result of any Event of Default or in connection with efforts to collect any amount due under this Note or to enforce the provisions of any of the Loan Documents, including those incurred in post-judgment collection efforts and in any bankruptcy proceeding (including any action for relief from the automatic stay of any bankruptcy proceeding) or judicial or non-judicial foreclosure proceeding.
17. Forbearance . Any forbearance by Payee in exercising any right or remedy under this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or any other Loan Document or otherwise afforded by applicable law shall not be a waiver of or preclude the exercise of that or any other right or remedy. The acceptance by Payee of any payment after the due date of such payment or in an amount which is less than the required payment shall not be a waiver of Payees right to require prompt payment when due of all other payments or to exercise any right or remedy with respect to any failure to make prompt payment. Enforcement by Payee of any security for Makers obligations under this Note shall not constitute an election by Payee of remedies so as to preclude the exercise of any other right or remedy available to Payee.
18. Section Headings . The Section headings inserted in this Note have been included for convenience only and are not intended and shall not be construed to limit or define in any way the substance of any section contained herein.
19. Limitation on Liability . Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, but subject to the obligations of Section 6.6 of the Loan Agreement, any claim based on or in respect of any liability of Maker under this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or any other Loan Document shall be enforced only against the Mortgaged Property (as such term is defined in the Mortgage) and any other collateral now or hereafter given to secure this Note and not against any other assets, properties or funds of Maker; provided , however , that the liability of Maker for loss, costs or damage arising out of the matters described in the subsections below (collectively, Non-Recourse Carveout Obligations ) shall not be limited solely to the Mortgaged Property and other collateral now or hereafter given to secure this Note but shall include all of the assets, properties and funds of Maker: (i) fraud, misrepresentation and waste; (ii) any rents, issues or profits collected more than one (1) month in advance of their due dates; (iii) any misapplication of rents, issues or profits, security deposits and any other payments from tenants or occupants (including, without limitation, lease termination fees), insurance proceeds, condemnation awards or other sums of a similar nature; (iv) liability under environmental covenants, conditions and indemnities contained in the Loan Agreement, including, without limitation, Section 3.9, the Mortgage and in any separate environmental indemnity agreements; (v) personalty or fixtures removed or allowed to be removed by or on behalf of Maker and not replaced by items of equal or greater value or functionality than the personalty or fixtures so removed; (vi) failure to pay taxes, assessments or ground rents prior to delinquency, or to pay charges for labor, materials or other charges which can create liens on any portion of the Mortgaged Property before such charges become a lien on such Mortgaged Property or any portion thereof and any sums expended by Payee in the performance of or compliance with the obligations of Maker under the Loan Documents, including, without limitation, sums expended to pay taxes or assessments or hazard insurance premiums or bills for utilities or other services or products for the benefit of the Mortgaged Property; (vii) the unauthorized sale, conveyance or transfer of title to the Mortgaged Property or encumbrance of the Mortgaged Property; (viii) the failure of Maker to maintain its status as a single purpose, bankruptcy-remote entity pursuant to its organizational documents and the Loan Documents; (ix) a violation of the provisions of Section 3.7(h) of the Loan Agreement; (x) the filing of any action to partition the Mortgaged Property or any Individual Property (as defined in the Loan Agreement) or the occurrence of any such partition or any sale pursuant to any such action; (xi) the transfer of any TIC (as defined in the Loan Agreement) interests in any of the Mortgaged Property or any Individual Property, or any direct or indirect interests in the holder of any such TIC interest, other than as expressly permitted under Section 3.4(h) of the Loan Agreement; (xii) the termination, cancellation or non-renewal of an Approved Manager (as defined in the Loan Agreement) or any other failure of an Approved Manager to serve as manager of any Permitted TIC (as defined in the Loan Agreement); (xiii) the failure of any Approved Manager to meet the Management Requirements (as defined in the Loan Agreement); and (xiv) attorneys fees, court costs and other expenses incurred by Payee in connection with enforcement of its remedies under the Loan Documents, including, but not limited to, in connection with any bankruptcy proceeding or reorganization brought by or against Maker or any Principal (as defined in the Loan Agreement) of Maker. Nothing herein shall be deemed (w) to be a waiver of any right which Payee may have under any bankruptcy law of the United States or the state where the Mortgaged Property is located including, but not limited to, Section 506(a), 506(b), 1111(b) or any other provisions of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code to file a claim for the full amount of the indebtedness secured by the Mortgage or to require that all collateral securing the indebtedness secured hereby shall continue to secure all of the indebtedness owing to Payee in accordance with this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents; (x) to impair the validity of the indebtedness secured by the Mortgage; (y) to impair the right of Payee as mortgagee or secured party to commence an action to foreclose any lien or security interest; or (z) to modify, diminish or discharge the liability of any guarantor under any guaranty or of any indemnitor under any indemnity agreement.

1. Payment of Principal and Interest . Principal and interest shall be paid as follows:
(a) If the loan proceeds are not disbursed on the first day of a month, then interest only at the Applicable Interest Rate from and including the date of disbursement of the loan proceeds to the first day of the month following such disbursement shall be due and payable in advance on the date of such disbursement;
(b) Interest only is to be paid in installments as follows: $72,986.67 on the first day of April, 2008 and on the first day of each calendar month thereafter up to and including the first day of February, 2013; and
(c) The outstanding principal balance and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon and all other sums and fees due under this Note shall be due and payable on the first day of March, 2013 (the Maturity Date ).
Interest on the principal balance of this Note shall be calculated on a monthly basis using, as the agreed method of calculation, a three hundred sixty (360) day year consisting of twelve (12) months of thirty (30) days each; provided , however , that interest for a period of less than a full month shall be calculated by multiplying the actual number of days elapsed during such partial month by a daily rate based upon a three hundred sixty-five day year and the interest rate then due under this Note.
The term Applicable Interest Rate as used in this Note shall mean from the date of disbursement of the loan proceeds through and including the Maturity Date, a rate of Five and Forty-Four One-Hundredths Percent (5.44%) per annum.
If at any time Payee receives, from Maker or otherwise, any amount applicable to the Debt (hereinafter defined) which is less than all amounts due and payable at such time, Payee may apply that payment to amounts then due and payable in any manner and in any order determined by Payee, in Payees sole discretion. Payee shall, however, be under no obligation to accept any amount less than all amounts then due and payable. Maker agrees that neither Payees acceptance of a payment from Maker in an amount that is less than all amounts then due and payable nor Payees application of such payment shall constitute or be deemed to constitute either a waiver of the unpaid amounts or an accord and satisfaction. This provision shall control notwithstanding any inconsistent direction by Maker or any other obligor hereunder.
This Note is issued by Maker to Payee pursuant to a certain Loan Agreement by and among Maker and John Hancock of even date herewith (the Loan Agreement ) whereby John Hancock has agreed to make three (3) separate loans to Maker in the aggregate principal amount of $105,000,000.00. This Note evidences a portion of one of such loans, which loan is in the aggregate principal amount of $50,650,000.00 (the NY Loan ), as set forth in the Loan Agreement. Reference is hereby made to the Loan Agreement for a full statement of the rights of the holder of, and the nature and extent of the security for, this Note. The whole of the principal sum of this Note, together with all interest accrued and unpaid thereon and all other sums due under this Note, any other mortgage note evidencing any other portion of the NY Loan, and the Loan Agreement and any other instrument now or hereafter evidencing, securing, guaranteeing or executed in connection with the Loan Agreement or the indebtedness evidenced hereby (the Loan Documents ) (all such sums hereinafter collectively referred to as the Debt ) shall without notice become immediately due and payable at the option of Payee on the happening of an Event of Default as the same is defined in the Loan Agreement (hereinafter defined). All of the terms, covenants and conditions contained in the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents are hereby made part of this Note to the same extent and with the same force as if they were fully set forth herein. In the event of any conflict between the terms of the Note and the terms of the Loan Agreement, the Mortgages and other security instruments, the terms of this Note shall govern, except as specifically provided herein or in the Loan Agreement.
2. Prepayment . Except as provided below, Maker may not prepay the loan evidenced by this Note in whole or in part.
On or after the end of the third (3 rd ) Loan Year (as hereinafter defined), on any scheduled payment date and subject to giving Payee not less than thirty (30) nor more than ninety (90) days prior written notice specifying the scheduled payment date on which prepayment is to be made (the Prepayment Date ), Maker may prepay the entire principal amount together with any and all accrued interest and other sums due under the Loan Documents, and subject to payment of a prepayment premium equal to the greater of:
(a) the positive amount, if any, equal to (i) the sum of the present values of all scheduled payments due under the Note from the Prepayment Date to and including the Maturity Date, minus (ii) the principal balance of the Note immediately prior to such prepayment; or
(b) 1.0% of the principal balance of the Note immediately prior to such prepayment.
All present values shall be calculated as of the Prepayment Date, using a discount rate, compounded monthly, equal to the yield rate plus twenty-five (25) basis points, converted to its monthly equivalent, of the United States Treasury Security having the closest maturity date to the Maturity Date of the Note as established in the Wall Street Journal or other business publication of general circulation five (5) business days before the Prepayment Date.
In the event that the yield rate on publicly traded United States Treasury Securities is not obtainable, then the nearest equivalent issue or index shall be selected, at Payees reasonable determination, and used to calculate the prepayment premium.
The loan evidenced by this Note will be open to prepayment without premium on any scheduled payment date during the last ninety (90) days of the term of this Note.
If any notice of prepayment is given, the principal balance of the loan evidenced by this Note and the other sums required pursuant to this Section 2 shall be due and payable on the Prepayment Date, unless Maker provides written notice to Payee that it is revoking said prepayment notice no later than five (5) business days prior to the Prepayment Date.
Provided no default exists under the Loan Documents, the above premium shall not be applicable to a prepayment resulting from Payees election to require insurance loss proceeds or condemnation awards to be applied to a payment of principal.
No partial prepayment shall be allowed.
The Loan Year is defined as any twelve month period commencing with the date on which the first monthly installment is due or any anniversary thereof.
3. Acceleration/Default . Maker acknowledges that the loan evidenced by this Note was made on the basis and assumption that Payee would receive the payments of principal and interest set forth herein for the full term of this Note. Therefore, whenever the Maturity Date of the loan evidenced by this Note has been accelerated by reason of an Event of Default under the Loan Documents, which Event of Default occurs prior to the time period, if any, in which prepayment is allowed and prior to the date on which the full amount of the balance of principal and interest then remaining unpaid shall be due, including an acceleration by reason of sale, conveyance, further encumbrance or other Event of Default (which acceleration shall be at Payees sole option), there shall be due, in addition to the outstanding principal balance, accrued interest and other sums due under the Loan Documents, a premium equal to the greater of:
(a) The sum obtained by adding:
(i) the positive amount, if any, equal to (aa) the sum of the present values of all scheduled payments due under this Note from the date of said payment to and including the Maturity Date of the Note, minus (bb) the then outstanding principal balance of the Note, and
(ii) 1.0 % of the then outstanding principal balance of the Note; or
(b) An amount equal to 10.0 % of the then outstanding principal balance of the Note.
All present values shall be calculated as of the date of said payment, using a discount rate, compounded monthly, equal to the yield rate, converted to its monthly equivalent, of the United States Treasury Security having the closest maturity date to the Maturity Date of the Note as established in the Wall Street Journal or other business publication of general circulation five (5) business days before the date of said payment. In the event that the yield rate on publicly traded United States Treasury Securities is not obtainable, then the nearest equivalent issue or index shall be selected, at Payees reasonable determination, and used to calculate the prepayment premium.
If an Event of Default occurs on or after the date on which prepayment is permitted, then in lieu of the above premium, payment of a premium calculated in the manner set forth in Section 2 hereof shall be required.
A tender of the amount necessary to satisfy the entire indebtedness, paid at any time following such Event of Default or acceleration, including at a foreclosure sale or during any subsequent redemption period, if any, shall be deemed a voluntary prepayment, and, at Payees option, such payment shall include a premium as described above.
4. Default Rate . Maker does hereby agree that upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and while any Event of Default exists, including, without limitation, the failure of Maker to pay the Debt in full on the Maturity Date, Payee shall be entitled to receive and Maker shall pay interest on the entire unpaid principal sum, effective from the date of Makers initial default with respect to such Event of Default without allowance for any applicable notice and/or grace period, at a rate (the Default Rate ) equal to seven percent (7%) above the Applicable Interest Rate, but in no event to exceed the highest rate permitted under the laws of the jurisdiction where the property secured by the Mortgage is situated. Notwithstanding the provisions of any statute or regulation to the contrary, the Default Rate shall apply to all sums evidenced hereby upon, during and after an Event of Default as provided herein, and also after entry of a judgment or judgments against Maker (whether in a mortgage foreclosure action or otherwise), and whether or not any event described in Paragraph 3.12 of the Loan Agreement hereof has occurred. This charge shall be added to the Debt, and shall be deemed secured by the Mortgage. This clause, however, shall not be construed as an agreement or privilege to extend the date of the payment of the Debt, nor as a waiver of any other right or remedy available to Payee by reason of the occurrence of any Event of Default.
5. Late Charge . If any monthly principal and interest payment payable under this Note is not paid in full within five (5) days of the date on which it is due, Maker shall pay to Payee an amount equal to the lesser of five percent (5%) of such unpaid sum or the maximum amount permitted by applicable law to defray the expenses incurred by Payee in handling and processing such delinquent payment and to compensate Payee for the loss of the use of such delinquent payment and such amount shall be secured by the Loan Documents.
6. Amendment and Restatement; Security for Loan . This Note is secured by, among other things, the Mortgage and certain other Loan Documents as set forth in the Loan Agreement. The term Mortgage as used in this Note shall mean that certain Mortgage Deed, Assignment of Leases and Rents, Security Agreement and Fixture Filing dated the date hereof in the principal sum of the NY Loan given by Maker for the use and benefit of Payee covering certain premises located at 103 Fairview Park Drive, 412 Fairview Park Drive, 401 Fieldcrest Drive, 404 Fieldcrest Drive, 199 Ridgewood Drive, and 203 Ridgewood Drive in the Town of Greenburgh, and at 36 Midland Avenue, 100-110 Midland Avenue, 112 Midland Avenue, and 8 Slater Street in the Village of Port Chester, all in the County of Westchester and State of New York, as more particularly described therein.
7. Compliance with Law . It is expressly stipulated and agreed to be the intent of Maker and Payee at all times to comply with applicable state law or applicable United States federal law (to the extent that it permits Payee to contract for, charge, take, reserve or receive a greater amount of interest than under state law) and that this paragraph shall control every other covenant and agreement in this Note, the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents. If the applicable law (state or federal) is ever judicially interpreted so as to render usurious any amount called for under this Note or any of the other Loan Documents, or contracted for, charged, taken, reserved or received with respect to the Debt, or if Payees exercise of the option to accelerate the Maturity Date, or if any prepayment by Maker results in Makers having paid any interest in excess of that permitted by applicable law, then it is Payees express intent that all excess amounts theretofore collected by Payee shall be credited on the principal balance of this Note and all other Debt and the provisions of this Note, and the other Loan Documents immediately be deemed reformed and the amounts thereafter collectible hereunder and thereunder reduced, without the necessity of the execution of any new documents, so as to comply with the applicable law, but so as to permit the recovery of the fullest amount otherwise called for hereunder or thereunder. All sums paid or agreed to be paid to Payee for the use or forbearance of the Debt shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread throughout the full stated term of the Debt until payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of the Debt does not exceed the maximum lawful rate from time to time in effect and applicable to the Debt for so long as the Debt is outstanding. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or in any of the other Loan Documents, it is not the intention of Payee to accelerate the maturity of any interest that has not accrued at the time of such acceleration or to collect unearned interest at the time of such acceleration.
8. Amendments . This Note may not be modified, amended, waived, extended, changed, discharged or terminated orally or by any act or failure to act on the part of Maker or Payee, but only by an agreement in writing signed by the party against whom enforcement of any modification, amendment, waiver, extension, change, discharge or termination is sought.
9. Joint and Several Liability . If Maker consists of more than one person or party, the obligations and liabilities of each such person or party shall be joint and several.
10. Construction . Whenever used, the singular number shall include the plural, the plural the singular, and the words Payee and Maker shall include their respective successors, assigns, heirs, executors and administrators.
11. Waivers . Maker and all others who may become liable for the payment of all or any part of the Debt do hereby severally waive presentment and demand for payment, notice of dishonor, protest, notice of protest and non-payment and notice of intent to accelerate the maturity hereof (and of such acceleration). No release of any security for the Debt or extension of time for payment of this Note or any installment hereof and no alteration, amendment or waiver of any provision of this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or any other Loan Documents made by agreement between Payee and any other person or party shall release, modify, amend, waive, extend, change, discharge, terminate or affect the liability of Maker and any other who may become liable for the payment of all or any part of the Debt, under this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or any other Loan Documents.
12. Authority . Maker (and the undersigned representative of Maker, if any) represents that Maker has full power, authority and legal right to execute, deliver and perform its obligations pursuant to this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents and that this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents constitute valid and binding obligations of Maker.
13. Time . Time is of the essence of this Note.
14. Replacement Note . In the event of the loss, theft or destruction of this Note, upon Makers receipt of a reasonably satisfactory indemnification agreement executed in favor of Maker by Payee or in the event of the mutilation of this Note, upon the surrender of the mutilated Note by Payee to Maker, Maker shall execute and deliver to Payee a new mortgage note in form and content identical to this Note in lieu of the lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note.
15. Notice . All notices required to be given pursuant hereto shall be given in the manner specified in the Loan Agreement directed to the parties at their respective addresses as provided therein.
16. Costs and Expenses . Maker shall pay all expenses and costs, including fees and out-of-pocket expenses of attorneys and expert witnesses and costs of investigation incurred by Payee as a result of any Event of Default or in connection with efforts to collect any amount due under this Note or to enforce the provisions of any of the Loan Documents, including those incurred in post-judgment collection efforts and in any bankruptcy proceeding (including any action for relief from the automatic stay of any bankruptcy proceeding) or judicial or non-judicial foreclosure proceeding.
17. Forbearance . Any forbearance by Payee in exercising any right or remedy under this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or any other Loan Document or otherwise afforded by applicable law shall not be a waiver of or preclude the exercise of that or any other right or remedy. The acceptance by Payee of any payment after the due date of such payment or in an amount which is less than the required payment shall not be a waiver of Payees right to require prompt payment when due of all other payments or to exercise any right or remedy with respect to any failure to make prompt payment. Enforcement by Payee of any security for Makers obligations under this Note shall not constitute an election by Payee of remedies so as to preclude the exercise of any other right or remedy available to Payee.
18. Section Headings . The Section headings inserted in this Note have been included for convenience only and are not intended and shall not be construed to limit or define in any way the substance of any section contained herein.
19. Limitation on Liability . Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, but subject to the obligations of Section 6.6 of the Loan Agreement, any claim based on or in respect of any liability of Maker under this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or any other Loan Document shall be enforced only against the Mortgaged Property (as such term is defined in the Mortgage) and any other collateral now or hereafter given to secure this Note and not against any other assets, properties or funds of Maker; provided , however , that the liability of Maker for loss, costs or damage arising out of the matters described in the subsections below (collectively, Non-Recourse Carveout Obligations ) shall not be limited solely to the Mortgaged Property and other collateral now or hereafter given to secure this Note but shall include all of the assets, properties and funds of Maker: (i) fraud, misrepresentation and waste; (ii) any rents, issues or profits collected more than one (1) month in advance of their due dates; (iii) any misapplication of rents, issues or profits, security deposits and any other payments from tenants or occupants (including, without limitation, lease termination fees), insurance proceeds, condemnation awards or other sums of a similar nature; (iv) liability under environmental covenants, conditions and indemnities contained in the Loan Agreement, including, without limitation, Section 3.9, the Mortgage and in any separate environmental indemnity agreements; (v) personalty or fixtures removed or allowed to be removed by or on behalf of Maker and not replaced by items of equal or greater value or functionality than the personalty or fixtures so removed; (vi) failure to pay taxes, assessments or ground rents prior to delinquency, or to pay charges for labor, materials or other charges which can create liens on any portion of the Mortgaged Property before such charges become a lien on such Mortgaged Property or any portion thereof and any sums expended by Payee in the performance of or compliance with the obligations of Maker under the Loan Documents, including, without limitation, sums expended to pay taxes or assessments or hazard insurance premiums or bills for utilities or other services or products for the benefit of the Mortgaged Property; (vii) the unauthorized sale, conveyance or transfer of title to the Mortgaged Property or encumbrance of the Mortgaged Property; (viii) the failure of Maker to maintain its status as a single purpose , bankruptcy-remote entity pursuant to its organizational documents and the Loan Documents; (ix) a violation of the provisions of Section 3.7(h) of the Loan Agreement; (x) the filing of any action to partition the Mortgaged Property or any Individual Property (as defined in the Loan Agreement) or the occurrence of any such partition or any sale pursuant to any such action; (xi) the transfer of any TIC (as defined in the Loan Agreement) interests in any of the Mortgaged Property or any Individual Property, or any direct or indirect interests in the holder of any such TIC interest, other than as expressly permitted under Section 3.4(h) of the Loan Agreement; (xii) the termination, cancellation or non-renewal of an Approved Manager (as defined in the Loan Agreement) or any other failure of an Approved Manager to serve as manager of any Permitted TIC (as defined in the Loan Agreement); (xiii) the failure of any Approved Manager to meet the Management Requirements (as defined in the Loan Agreement); and (xiv) attorneys fees, court costs and other expenses incurred by Payee in connection with enforcement of its remedies under the Loan Documents, including, but not limited to, in connection with any bankruptcy proceeding or reorganization brought by or against Maker or any Principal (as defined in the Loan Agreement) of Maker. Nothing herein shall be deemed (w) to be a waiver of any right which Payee may have under any bankruptcy law of the United States or the state where the Mortgaged Property is located including, but not limited to, Section 506(a), 506(b), 1111(b) or any other provisions of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code to file a claim for the full amount of the indebtedness secured by the Mortgage or to require that all collateral securing the indebtedness secured hereby shall continue to secure all of the indebtedness owing to Payee in accordance with this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents; (x) to impair the validity of the indebtedness secured by the Mortgage; (y) to impair the right of Payee as mortgagee or secured party to commence an action to foreclose any lien or security interest; or (z) to modify, diminish or discharge the liability of any guarantor under any guaranty or of any indemnitor under any indemnity agreement.
20. Book Entry .

1. Payment of Principal and Interest . Principal and interest shall be paid as follows:
(a) If the loan proceeds are not disbursed on the first day of a month, then interest only at the Applicable Interest Rate from and including the date of disbursement of the loan proceeds to the first day of the month following such disbursement shall be due and payable in advance on the date of such disbursement;
(b) Interest only is to be paid in installments as follows: $16,640.00 on the first day of April, 2008 and on the first day of each calendar month thereafter up to and including the first day of February, 2011; and
(c) The outstanding principal balance and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon and all other sums and fees due under this Note shall be due and payable on the first day of March, 2011 (the Maturity Date ).
Interest on the principal balance of this Note shall be calculated on a monthly basis using, as the agreed method of calculation, a three hundred sixty (360) day year consisting of twelve (12) months of thirty (30) days each; provided , however , that interest for a period of less than a full month shall be calculated by multiplying the actual number of days elapsed during such partial month by a daily rate based upon a three hundred sixty-five day year and the interest rate then due under this Note.
The term Applicable Interest Rate as used in this Note shall mean from the date of disbursement of the loan proceeds through and including the Maturity Date, a rate of Five and Twelve One-Hundredths Percent (5.12%) per annum.
If at any time Payee receives, from Maker or otherwise, any amount applicable to the Debt (hereinafter defined) which is less than all amounts due and payable at such time, Payee may apply that payment to amounts then due and payable in any manner and in any order determined by Payee, in Payees sole discretion. Payee shall, however, be under no obligation to accept any amount less than all amounts then due and payable. Maker agrees that neither Payees acceptance of a payment from Maker in an amount that is less than all amounts then due and payable nor Payees application of such payment shall constitute or be deemed to constitute either a waiver of the unpaid amounts or an accord and satisfaction. This provision shall control notwithstanding any inconsistent direction by Maker or any other obligor hereunder.
This Note is issued by Maker to Payee pursuant to a certain Loan Agreement by and among Maker and John Hancock of even date herewith (the Loan Agreement ) whereby John Hancock has agreed to make three (3) separate loans to Maker in the aggregate principal amount of $105,000,000.00. This Note evidences a portion of one of such loans, which loan is in the aggregate principal amount of $50,650,000.00 (the NY Loan ), as set forth in the Loan Agreement. Reference is hereby made to the Loan Agreement for a full statement of the rights of the holder of, and the nature and extent of the security for, this Note. The whole of the principal sum of this Note, together with all interest accrued and unpaid thereon and all other sums due under this Note, any other mortgage note evidencing any other portion of the NY Loan, and the Loan Agreement and any other instrument now or hereafter evidencing, securing, guaranteeing or executed in connection with the Loan Agreement or the indebtedness evidenced hereby (the Loan Documents ) (all such sums hereinafter collectively referred to as the Debt ) shall without notice become immediately due and payable at the option of Payee on the happening of an Event of Default as the same is defined in the Loan Agreement (hereinafter defined). All of the terms, covenants and conditions contained in the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents are hereby made part of this Note to the same extent and with the same force as if they were fully set forth herein. In the event of any conflict between the terms of the Note and the terms of the Loan Agreement, the Mortgages and other security instruments, the terms of this Note shall govern, except as specifically provided herein or in the Loan Agreement.
2. Prepayment . Except as provided below, Maker may not prepay the loan evidenced by this Note in whole or in part.
On or after the end of the first 1.5 Loan Years (as hereinafter defined), on any scheduled payment date and subject to giving Payee not less than thirty (30) nor more than ninety (90) days prior written notice specifying the scheduled payment date on which prepayment is to be made (the Prepayment Date ), Maker may prepay the entire principal amount together with any and all accrued interest and other sums due under the Loan Documents, and subject to payment of a prepayment premium equal to the greater of:
(a) the positive amount, if any, equal to (i) the sum of the present values of all scheduled payments due under the Note from the Prepayment Date to and including the Maturity Date, minus (ii) the principal balance of the Note immediately prior to such prepayment; or
(b) 1.0% of the principal balance of the Note immediately prior to such prepayment.
All present values shall be calculated as of the Prepayment Date, using a discount rate, compounded monthly, equal to the yield rate plus twenty-five (25) basis points, converted to its monthly equivalent, of the United States Treasury Security having the closest maturity date to the Maturity Date of the Note as established in the Wall Street Journal or other business publication of general circulation five (5) business days before the Prepayment Date.
In the event that the yield rate on publicly traded United States Treasury Securities is not obtainable, then the nearest equivalent issue or index shall be selected, at Payees reasonable determination, and used to calculate the prepayment premium.
The loan evidenced by this Note will be open to prepayment without premium on any scheduled payment date during the last ninety (90) days of the term of this Note.
If any notice of prepayment is given, the principal balance of the loan evidenced by this Note and the other sums required pursuant to this Section 2 shall be due and payable on the Prepayment Date, unless Maker provides written notice to Payee that it is revoking said prepayment notice no later than five (5) business days prior to the Prepayment Date.
Provided no default exists under the Loan Documents, the above premium shall not be applicable to a prepayment resulting from Payees election to require insurance loss proceeds or condemnation awards to be applied to a payment of principal.
No partial prepayment shall be allowed.
The Loan Year is defined as any twelve month period commencing with the date on which the first monthly installment is due or any anniversary thereof.
3. Acceleration/Default . Maker acknowledges that the loan evidenced by this Note was made on the basis and assumption that Payee would receive the payments of principal and interest set forth herein for the full term of this Note. Therefore, whenever the Maturity Date of the loan evidenced by this Note has been accelerated by reason of an Event of Default under the Loan Documents, which Event of Default occurs prior to the time period, if any, in which prepayment is allowed and prior to the date on which the full amount of the balance of principal and interest then remaining unpaid shall be due, including an acceleration by reason of sale, conveyance, further encumbrance or other Event of Default (which acceleration shall be at Payees sole option), there shall be due, in addition to the outstanding principal balance, accrued interest and other sums due under the Loan Documents, a premium equal to the greater of:
(a) The sum obtained by adding:
(i) the positive amount, if any, equal to (aa) the sum of the present values of all scheduled payments due under this Note from the date of said payment to and including the Maturity Date of the Note, minus (bb) the then outstanding principal balance of the Note, and
(ii) 1.0 % of the then outstanding principal balance of the Note; or
(b) An amount equal to 10.0 % of the then outstanding principal balance of the Note.
All present values shall be calculated as of the date of said payment, using a discount rate, compounded monthly, equal to the yield rate, converted to its monthly equivalent, of the United States Treasury Security having the closest maturity date to the Maturity Date of the Note as established in the Wall Street Journal or other business publication of general circulation five (5) business days before the date of said payment. In the event that the yield rate on publicly traded United States Treasury Securities is not obtainable, then the nearest equivalent issue or index shall be selected, at Payees reasonable determination, and used to calculate the prepayment premium.
If an Event of Default occurs on or after the date on which prepayment is permitted, then in lieu of the above premium, payment of a premium calculated in the manner set forth in Section 2 hereof shall be required.
A tender of the amount necessary to satisfy the entire indebtedness, paid at any time following such Event of Default or acceleration, including at a foreclosure sale or during any subsequent redemption period, if any, shall be deemed a voluntary prepayment, and, at Payees option, such payment shall include a premium as described above.
4. Default Rate . Maker does hereby agree that upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and while any Event of Default exists, including, without limitation, the failure of Maker to pay the Debt in full on the Maturity Date, Payee shall be entitled to receive and Maker shall pay interest on the entire unpaid principal sum, effective from the date of Makers initial default with respect to such Event of Default without allowance for any applicable notice and/or grace period, at a rate (the Default Rate ) equal to seven percent (7%) above the Applicable Interest Rate, but in no event to exceed the highest rate permitted under the laws of the jurisdiction where the property secured by the Mortgage is situated. Notwithstanding the provisions of any statute or regulation to the contrary, the Default Rate shall apply to all sums evidenced hereby upon, during and after an Event of Default as provided herein, and also after entry of a judgment or judgments against Maker (whether in a mortgage foreclosure action or otherwise), and whether or not any event described in Paragraph 3.12 of the Loan Agreement hereof has occurred. This charge shall be added to the Debt, and shall be deemed secured by the Mortgage. This clause, however, shall not be construed as an agreement or privilege to extend the date of the payment of the Debt, nor as a waiver of any other right or remedy available to Payee by reason of the occurrence of any Event of Default.
5. Late Charge . If any monthly principal and interest payment payable under this Note is not paid in full within five (5) days of the date on which it is due, Maker shall pay to Payee an amount equal to the lesser of five percent (5%) of such unpaid sum or the maximum amount permitted by applicable law to defray the expenses incurred by Payee in handling and processing such delinquent payment and to compensate Payee for the loss of the use of such delinquent payment and such amount shall be secured by the Loan Documents.
6. Amendment and Restatement; Security for Loan . This Note is secured by, among other things, the Mortgage and certain other Loan Documents as set forth in the Loan Agreement. The term Mortgage as used in this Note shall mean that certain Mortgage Deed, Assignment of Leases and Rents, Security Agreement and Fixture Filing dated the date hereof in the principal sum of the NY Loan given by Maker for the use and benefit of Payee covering certain premises located at 103 Fairview Park Drive, 412 Fairview Park Drive, 401 Fieldcrest Drive, 404 Fieldcrest Drive, 199 Ridgewood Drive, and 203 Ridgewood Drive in the Town of Greenburgh, and at 36 Midland Avenue, 100-110 Midland Avenue, 112 Midland Avenue, and 8 Slater Street in the Village of Port Chester, all in the County of Westchester and State of New York, as more particularly described therein.
7. Compliance with Law . It is expressly stipulated and agreed to be the intent of Maker and Payee at all times to comply with applicable state law or applicable United States federal law (to the extent that it permits Payee to contract for, charge, take, reserve or receive a greater amount of interest than under state law) and that this paragraph shall control every other covenant and agreement in this Note, the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents. If the applicable law (state or federal) is ever judicially interpreted so as to render usurious any amount called for under this Note or any of the other Loan Documents, or contracted for, charged, taken, reserved or received with respect to the Debt, or if Payees exercise of the option to accelerate the Maturity Date, or if any prepayment by Maker results in Makers having paid any interest in excess of that permitted by applicable law, then it is Payees express intent that all excess amounts theretofore collected by Payee shall be credited on the principal balance of this Note and all other Debt and the provisions of this Note, and the other Loan Documents immediately be deemed reformed and the amounts thereafter collectible hereunder and thereunder reduced, without the necessity of the execution of any new documents, so as to comply with the applicable law, but so as to permit the recovery of the fullest amount otherwise called for hereunder or thereunder. All sums paid or agreed to be paid to Payee for the use or forbearance of the Debt shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread throughout the full stated term of the Debt until payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of the Debt does not exceed the maximum lawful rate from time to time in effect and applicable to the Debt for so long as the Debt is outstanding. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or in any of the other Loan Documents, it is not the intention of Payee to accelerate the maturity of any interest that has not accrued at the time of such acceleration or to collect unearned interest at the time of such acceleration.
8. Amendments . This Note may not be modified, amended, waived, extended, changed, discharged or terminated orally or by any act or failure to act on the part of Maker or Payee, but only by an agreement in writing signed by the party against whom enforcement of any modification, amendment, waiver, extension, change, discharge or termination is sought.
9. Joint and Several Liability . If Maker consists of more than one person or party, the obligations and liabilities of each such person or party shall be joint and several.
10. Construction . Whenever used, the singular number shall include the plural, the plural the singular, and the words Payee and Maker shall include their respective successors, assigns, heirs, executors and administrators.
11. Waivers . Maker and all others who may become liable for the payment of all or any part of the Debt do hereby severally waive presentment and demand for payment, notice of dishonor, protest, notice of protest and non-payment and notice of intent to accelerate the maturity hereof (and of such acceleration). No release of any security for the Debt or extension of time for payment of this Note or any installment hereof and no alteration, amendment or waiver of any provision of this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or any other Loan Documents made by agreement between Payee and any other person or party shall release, modify, amend, waive, extend, change, discharge, terminate or affect the liability of Maker and any other who may become liable for the payment of all or any part of the Debt, under this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or any other Loan Documents.
12. Authority . Maker (and the undersigned representative of Maker, if any) represents that Maker has full power, authority and legal right to execute, deliver and perform its obligations pursuant to this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents and that this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents constitute valid and binding obligations of Maker.
13. Time . Time is of the essence of this Note.
14. Replacement Note . In the event of the loss, theft or destruction of this Note, upon Makers receipt of a reasonably satisfactory indemnification agreement executed in favor of Maker by Payee or in the event of the mutilation of this Note, upon the surrender of the mutilated Note by Payee to Maker, Maker shall execute and deliver to Payee a new mortgage note in form and content identical to this Note in lieu of the lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note.
15. Notice . All notices required to be given pursuant hereto shall be given in the manner specified in the Loan Agreement directed to the parties at their respective addresses as provided therein.
16. Costs and Expenses . Maker shall pay all expenses and costs, including fees and out-of-pocket expenses of attorneys and expert witnesses and costs of investigation incurred by Payee as a result of any Event of Default or in connection with efforts to collect any amount due under this Note or to enforce the provisions of any of the Loan Documents, including those incurred in post-judgment collection efforts and in any bankruptcy proceeding (including any action for relief from the automatic stay of any bankruptcy proceeding) or judicial or non-judicial foreclosure proceeding.
17. Forbearance . Any forbearance by Payee in exercising any right or remedy under this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or any other Loan Document or otherwise afforded by applicable law shall not be a waiver of or preclude the exercise of that or any other right or remedy. The acceptance by Payee of any payment after the due date of such payment or in an amount which is less than the required payment shall not be a waiver of Payees right to require prompt payment when due of all other payments or to exercise any right or remedy with respect to any failure to make prompt payment. Enforcement by Payee of any security for Makers obligations under this Note shall not constitute an election by Payee of remedies so as to preclude the exercise of any other right or remedy available to Payee.

LOAN AGREEMENT
This Mortgage is being executed pursuant to the terms of the Loan Agreement of even date herewith, by and among WU/LH 470 BRIDGEPORT L.L.C., WU/LH 950 BRIDGEPORT L.L.C., WU/LH 12 CASCADE L.L.C., WU/LH 15 EXECUTIVE L.L.C., WU/LH 22 MARSH HILL L.L.C., WU/LH 25 EXECUTIVE L.L.C., WU/LH 269 LAMBERT L.L.C., WU/LH 103 FAIRVIEW PARK L.L.C., WU/LH 412 FAIRVIEW PARK L.L.C., WU/LH 401 FIELDCREST L.L.C., WU/LH 404 FIELDCREST L.L.C., WU/LH 36 MIDLAND L.L.C., WU/LH 100-110 MIDLAND L.L.C., WU/LH 112 MIDLAND L.L.C., WU/LH 199 RIDGEWOOD L.L.C., WU/LH 203 RIDGEWOOD L.L.C., WU/LH 8 SLATER L.L.C., WU/LH 100 AMERICAN L.L.C., WU/LH 200 AMERICAN L.L.C., WU/LH 300 AMERICAN L.L.C., WU/LH 400 AMERICAN L.L.C. and WU/LH 500 AMERICAN L.L.C. (collectively, the Borrower ) and Lender (as amended, modified, restated or supplemented from time to time, the Loan Agreement ). Any capitalized terms used in this Mortgage and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings assigned in the Loan Agreement. Pursuant to the Loan Agreement, the Mortgagee has agreed to make the Loan to the Borrower in three (3) separate loans to the Borrower, including the undersigned Mortgagor. The Loan includes all of said three loans. The CT Loan is secured by a first mortgage covering real property in the State of Connecticut and the NY Loan is secured by a first mortgage covering real property in the State of New York. The Mortgage and the other Loan Documents are cross-defaulted with both the CT Loan and the NY Loan and their respective loan documents and the NJ Loan portion of the Loan is cross- collateralized with the CT Loan. The NJ Loan is secured by this first mortgage, as well as by a junior mortgage on collateral for the CT Loan located in the State of Connecticut.
The NJ Loan and the CT Loan are also secured by an assignment of leases and rents with respect to property in New York encumbered by a mortgage which secures the NY Loan, which assignment of leases and rents is junior to said mortgage and other documents securing the NY Loan.

In certain circumstances where this Loan is assigned and transferred by the Lender, the Loan Agreement provides that a new loan agreement shall be entered into by the parties to this Loan.
GENERAL PROVISIONS
1. Payment of Indebtedness and Incorporation of Covenants, Conditions and Agreements. Mortgagor shall pay the Indebtedness at the time and in the manner provided in the Note, this Mortgage and the other Loan Documents. All the covenants, conditions and agreements contained in the Note and the other Loan Documents are hereby made a part of this Mortgage to the same extent and with the same force as if fully set forth herein.
2. Warranty of Title. Mortgagor has good and marketable title to the Mortgaged Property; Mortgagor has the right to mortgage, give, grant, bargain, sell, alienate, enfeoff, convey, confirm, pledge, lease, assign, hypothecate and grant a security interest in the Mortgaged Property; Mortgagor possesses an indefeasible fee estate in the Real Property; and Mortgagor owns the Mortgaged Property free and clear of all liens, encumbrances and charges whatsoever except those exceptions shown in the title insurance policy insuring the lien of this Mortgage (this Mortgage and the liens, encumbrances and charges shown as exceptions in such title policy, hereinafter collectively referred to as the Permitted Encumbrances ). Mortgagor shall forever warrant, defend and preserve such title and the validity and priority of the lien of this Mortgage and shall forever warrant and defend the same to Mortgagee against the claims of all persons whomsoever.
3. Condemnation. Mortgagor shall promptly give Mortgagee written notice of the actual or threatened commencement of any condemnation or eminent domain proceeding and shall deliver to Mortgagee copies of any and all papers served in connection with such proceedings. Following the occurrence of a condemnation, Mortgagor, regardless of whether an award is available, shall promptly proceed to restore, repair, replace or rebuild the Improvements to the extent practicable to be of at least equal value and of substantially the same character as prior to such condemnation, all to be effected in accordance with applicable law. Notwithstanding any taking by any public or quasi-public authority through eminent domain or otherwise (including but not limited to any transfer made in lieu of or in anticipation of the exercise of such taking), Mortgagor shall continue to pay the Indebtedness at the time and in the manner provided for its payment in the Note, in this Mortgage and the other Loan Documents and the Indebtedness shall not be reduced until any award or payment therefor shall have been actually received after expenses of collection and applied by Mortgagee to the discharge of the Indebtedness. Mortgagor shall cause the award or payment made in any condemnation or eminent domain proceeding, which is payable to Mortgagor, to be paid directly to Mortgagee. Mortgagee may, at Mortgagees election, use the award in any one or more of the following ways: (a) apply any such award or payment (for purposes of this Paragraph 3 , the award or payment that may be made in any condemnation or eminent domain proceeding shall mean the entire award allocated to Mortgagor in any capacity) to the discharge of the Indebtedness whether or not then due and payable (such application to be without prepayment fee or premium, except that if an Event of Default, or an event which with notice and/or the passage of time, or both, would constitute an Event of Default, has occurred, then such application shall be subject to the applicable premium computed in accordance with the Note), (b) use the same or any part thereof to fulfill any of the covenants contained herein as the Mortgagee may determine, (c) use the same or any part thereof to replace or restore the Mortgaged Property to a condition satisfactory to the Mortgagee, or (d) release the same to the Mortgagor.
If the Mortgaged Property is sold, through foreclosure or otherwise, prior to the receipt by Mortgagee of such award or payment, Mortgagee shall have the right, whether or not a deficiency judgment on the Note shall have been sought, recovered or denied, to receive said award or payment or a portion thereof sufficient to pay the Indebtedness.
4. Leases and Rents.
(a) Mortgagor does hereby absolutely and unconditionally assign to Mortgagee its right, title and interest in all current and future Leases and Rents and all proceeds from the sale, cancellation, surrender or other disposition of the Leases, it being intended by Mortgagor that this assignment constitutes a present, absolute assignment and not an assignment for additional security only. Such assignment to Mortgagee shall not be construed to bind Mortgagee to the performance of any of the covenants, conditions or provisions contained in any such Lease or otherwise to impose any obligation upon Mortgagee. Mortgagor agrees to execute and deliver to Mortgagee such additional instruments in form and substance satisfactory to Mortgagee, as may hereafter be requested by Mortgagee to further evidence and confirm such assignment. Nevertheless, subject to the terms of this Paragraph 4 , Mortgagee grants to Mortgagor a revocable license to operate and manage the Mortgaged Property and to collect the Rents. Mortgagor shall hold the Rents, or a portion thereof sufficient to discharge all current sums due on the Indebtedness, in trust for the benefit of Mortgagee for use in the payment of such sums. The grant of the foregoing license is subject to the provisions of Paragraph 1 of the separate Assignment of Leases and Rents of even date herewith granted by the Mortgagor as Assignor to the Mortgagee as Assignee with respect to the Mortgaged Property ( Assignment of Leases and Rents ). Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the license granted to Mortgagor herein shall be automatically revoked and Mortgagee shall immediately be entitled to possession of all Rents, whether or not Mortgagee enters upon or takes control of the Mortgaged Property. Mortgagee is hereby granted and assigned by Mortgagor the right, at its option, upon the revocation of the license granted herein to enter upon the Mortgaged Property in person, by agent or by court-appointed receiver to collect the Rents. Any Rents collected after the revocation of the license herein granted may be applied toward payment of the Indebtedness in such priority and proportion as Mortgagee in its discretion shall deem proper. It is further the intent of Mortgagor and Mortgagee that the Rents hereby absolutely assigned are no longer, during the term of this Mortgage, property of Mortgagor or property of any estate of Mortgagor as defined in Section 541 of the Bankruptcy Code and shall not constitute collateral, cash or otherwise, of Mortgagor. The term Rents as used herein shall mean the gross rents without deduction or offsets of any kind.
(b) All Leases executed after the date of this Mortgage shall provide that they are subordinate to this Mortgage and that the lessee agrees to attorn to Mortgagee; provided, however, that nothing herein shall affect Mortgagees right to designate from time to time any one or more Leases as being superior to this Mortgage and Mortgagor shall execute and deliver to Mortgagee and shall cause to be executed and delivered to Mortgagee from each tenant under such Lease any instrument or agreement as Mortgagee may deem necessary to make such Lease superior to this Mortgage. Upon request, Mortgagor shall promptly furnish Mortgagee with executed copies of all Leases.
(c) Mortgagor shall not, without the prior consent of Mortgagee, (i) lease all or any part of the Mortgaged Property, (ii) alter or change the terms of any Lease or cancel or terminate, abridge or otherwise modify the terms of any Lease, (iii) consent to any assignment of or subletting under any Lease not in accordance with its terms, (iv) cancel, terminate, abridge or otherwise modify any guaranty of any Lease or the terms thereof, (v) collect or accept prepayments of installments of Rents for a period of more than one (1) month in advance or (vi) further assign the whole or any part of the Leases or the Rents; provided, however, that such action as described in subsections (i)-(iv) above may be taken without Mortgagees consent for any Lease which is for not more than five percent (5%) of the total net rentable square feet of space then occupied or available for occupancy at the Mortgaged Property provides for, an annual rent of not more than five percent (5%) of the total rentable income then being paid with respect to all of the Mortgaged Property, requires tenant to pay market rent for the entire term of said Lease, and has a term (including the renewal or extension term) of not more than 20 years (a lease satisfying those criteria shall be referred to as a Small Lease ) so long as the taking of such action is in the ordinary course of Mortgagors business and that such action is still subject to Paragraph 1 of the separate Assignment of Leases and Rents pertaining to Termination Amounts (as defined therein).
(d) With respect to each Lease, Mortgagor shall (i) observe and perform each and every provision thereof on the lessors part to be fulfilled or performed under each Lease and not do or permit to be done anything to impair the value of the Lease as security for the Loan, including surrender or voluntary termination of any Lease, (ii) promptly send to Mortgagee copies of all notices of default which Mortgagor shall send or receive thereunder, (iii) enforce all of the terms, covenants and conditions contained in such Lease upon the lessees part to be performed, short of termination thereof, (iv) execute and deliver, at the request of Mortgagee, all such further assurances, confirmations and assignments in connection with the Mortgaged Property as Mortgagee shall, from time to time, require and (v) upon request, furnish Mortgagee with executed copies of all Leases; provided , however , the notice to Mortgagee referenced in subsection (ii) above and the restriction on termination of a Lease in connection with the enforcement of its terms, covenants and conditions set forth in (iii) above shall not be required or apply, as the case may be, for any Small Lease. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default under this Mortgage, Mortgagor shall pay monthly in advance to Mortgagee, or any receiver appointed to collect the Rents, the fair and reasonable rental value for the use and occupation of the Mortgaged Property or part of the Mortgaged Property as may be occupied by Mortgagor or any one Mortgagor and upon default in any such payment Mortgagor shall vacate and surrender possession of the Mortgaged Property to Mortgagee or to such receiver and, in default thereof, Mortgagor may be evicted by summary proceedings or otherwise.
(e) All security deposits of tenants, whether held in cash or any other form, shall not be commingled with any other funds of Mortgagor and, if cash, shall be deposited by Mortgagor at such commercial or savings bank or banks as may be reasonably satisfactory to Mortgagee. Any bond or other instrument which Mortgagor is permitted to hold in lieu of cash security deposits under any applicable legal requirements shall be maintained in full force and effect in the full amount of such deposits unless replaced by cash deposits as hereinabove described, shall be issued by an institution reasonably satisfactory to Mortgagee, shall, if permitted pursuant to any legal requirements, name Mortgagee as payee or Mortgagee thereunder (or at Mortgagees option, be fully assignable to Mortgagee) and shall, in all respects, comply with any applicable legal requirements and otherwise be reasonably satisfactory to Mortgagee. Mortgagor shall, upon request, provide Mortgagee with evidence reasonably satisfactory to Mortgagee of Mortgagors compliance with the foregoing. Following the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, Mortgagor shall, upon Mortgagees request, if permitted by any applicable legal requirements turn over to Mortgagee the security deposits (and any interest theretofore earned thereon) with respect to all or any portion of the Mortgaged Property, to be held by Mortgagee subject to the terms of the Leases.
5. Maintenance and Use of Mortgaged Property. Mortgagor shall, at its sole cost and expense, keep and maintain the Mortgaged Property, including, without limitation, parking lots and recreational and landscaped portions thereof, if any, in good order and condition.

In the event that a claim or adjudication is made that Mortgagee has acted unreasonably or unreasonably delayed acting in any case where by law or under the Note, this Mortgage or the other Loan Documents, it has an obligation to act reasonably or promptly, Mortgagee shall not be liable for any monetary damages, and Mortgagors remedies shall be limited to injunctive relief or declaratory judgment.

Mortgagor agrees to indemnify and hold Mortgagee harmless from any and all liability, loss, damage or expense (including, without limitation, attorneys fees and disbursements) that Mortgagee may or might incur hereunder or in connection with the enforcement of any of its rights or remedies hereunder, any action taken by Mortgagee hereunder, or by reason or in defense of any and all claims and demands whatsoever that may be asserted against Mortgagee arising out of the Mortgaged Property; and should Mortgagee incur any such liability, loss, damage or expense, the amount thereof with interest thereon at the Default Rate shall be payable by Mortgagor immediately without demand, shall be secured by this Mortgage, and shall be a part of the Indebtedness.

51. Additional Security Documents .
(a) Certain of the other Borrowers have simultaneously herewith executed and delivered to or for the benefit of Mortgagee certain other mortgages and other documents and instruments encumbering or relating to certain property owned by such other Borrowers located in the Towns of Orange, Milford and Shelton in the State of Connecticut as additional security for the portion of the Indebtedness herein defined as the NJ Loan (collectively, the Additional Junior Mortgages), which Additional Junior Mortgages secure the NJ Loan, but which do not secure, and shall be subordinate and junior in priority to, the first mortgage and the loan secured thereby which is held by Mortgagee on each such other property.
(b) Also, certain of the other Borrowers have simultaneously herewith executed and delivered to or for the benefit of Mortgagee a certain Second Assignment of Leases and Rents with respect to the property in Westchester County, New York encumbered by a mortgage which secures the NY Loan, as additional security for the CT Loan and the NJ Loan, pursuant to the Loan Agreement. Said Second Assignment of Leases and Rents (the Junior Assignment) is subordinate and junior in priority to said mortgage and related documents which secure the NY Loan.
(c) The Additional Junior Mortgages, the Junior Assignment and this Mortgage (and each counterpart thereof) shall each and all constitute security for the NJ Loan, with this Mortgage also constituting security for the NY Loan and CT Loan, the applicable Notes, the indebtedness referred to therein and the Indebtedness. If there should be an Event of Default in any of the terms, conditions or obligations of any of the Additional Junior Mortgages or the Junior Assignment, such default shall constitute an Event of Default under this Mortgage. The Mortgagee, may foreclose or otherwise enforce such security under the Additional Junior Mortgages and/or the Junior Assignment, enforce its rights, powers and remedies with respect to, and realize upon, such security or otherwise enforce its rights, powers and remedies with respect to, and realize upon, such security, either before or concurrently with or after a foreclosure or other enforcement of this Mortgage, any other such security or any of the other Loan Documents, and in any order as Mortgagee may choose (whether or not every aspect of any such foreclosure or other enforcement may be commercially reasonable), all without impairing or being deemed to have waived any rights, benefits, liens or security evidenced by or arising under or in connection with this Mortgage, any other such security or any of the other Loan Documents, the Additional Junior Mortgages or the Junior Assignment, and without being deemed to have made an election thereby or to have accepted the benefits of such security (or the proceeds thereof) in full settlement of the Obligations and of its rights with respect thereto. No judgment, order or decree rendered against Mortgagor with respect to any such other security or any of the other Loan Documents, whether rendered in any state in which any collateral is situated or elsewhere, shall in any manner affect the security of this Mortgage, and any deficiency or other debt represented by any such judgment, order or decree shall, to the extent permitted by law, be secured by this Mortgage to the same extent that the Indebtedness shall have been secured by this Mortgage prior to the rendering of such judgment, order or decree.
Mortgagor for itself and for any and all persons who may at any time claim through or under Mortgagor or who hereafter may otherwise acquire any interest in or title to all or any part of the Mortgaged Property or any other security for the Obligations, hereby irrevocably waives and releases, to the extent permitted by law, all benefit of any and all laws that would limit or prohibit the effectiveness of anything set forth in this Section.
(d) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Mortgagee shall be under no duty to Mortgagor or any other person or entity, including, without limitation, any holder of a junior, senior or subordinate mortgage on the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof or on any other security held by Mortgagee, to exercise, exhaust or first resort to all or any of the rights, powers and remedies available to Mortgagee, whether under this Mortgage, the other Loan Documents, the Additional Junior Mortgages, or the Junior Assignment prior to the sale of the Mortgaged Property or any other enforcement of this Mortgage. Furthermore, Mortgagor and such other persons and entities waive all rights relating to marshaling and agree that Mortgagee shall not be compelled to release any part of the security of this Mortgage, the other Loan Documents, the Additional Junior Mortgages, or the Junior Assignment or be prevented from foreclosing or enforcing this Mortgage, the other Loan Documents, the Additional Junior Mortgages or the Junior Assignment upon all or any part of such security unless the Indebtedness shall have been paid in full and that Mortgagee shall not be compelled to accept or allow any apportionment of the Indebtedness to or among any of the property encumbered by this Mortgage, the other Loan Documents, the Additional Junior Mortgages or the Junior Assignment.
52. Sole Discretion of Mortgagee . Wherever, pursuant to this Mortgage, Mortgagee exercises any right given to it to approve or disapprove, or any arrangement or term is to be satisfactory to Mortgagee, the decision of Mortgagee to approve or disapprove or to decide that arrangements or terms are satisfactory or not satisfactory shall be in the sole discretion of Mortgagee and shall be final and conclusive, except as may be otherwise specifically provided herein.
53. Waiver of Doctrine of Merger . Mortgagor agrees that its obligations to reimburse Mortgagee for Taxes, insurance, Other Charges, expenses to preserve the Mortgaged Property, legal fees and disbursements, and other out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Mortgagee in enforcing Mortgagees rights and remedies under this Mortgage and the other Loan Documents, including those provided for in Paragraph 14 above, shall survive entry of any foreclosure judgment. To the fullest extent legally permissible, Mortgagor expressly waives any limitation or legal fees under §4:42-9(a)(4) of the New Jersey Court Rules.
54. No Credit for Taxes Paid . Mortgagor waives any right it may have to a credit against interest due under the Loan secured by this Mortgage pursuant to N.J.S.A. 54:4-33.
55. Special State Provisions .
(a) In the event of any inconsistencies between the other paragraphs of this Mortgage and this Paragraph 55, the terms and conditions of this Paragraph 55 shall control and be binding.
(b) The term Environmental Law shall be deemed to include, without limitation, any laws of the State of New Jersey pertaining to protection of the environment or to any Hazardous Materials (as defined in the Indemnification Agreement).
(c) IN CONNECTION WITH ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THE NOTE, THIS MORTGAGE, OR THE OTHER DOCUMENTS OR TRANSACTIONS EVIDENCED HEREBY OR THEREBY, MORTGAGOR WAIVES TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING AND AGREES THAT NO SUCH ACTION WITH RESPECT TO WHICH A JURY TRIAL HAS BEEN WAIVED SHALL BE SOUGHT TO BE CONSOLIDATED WITH ANY OTHER ACTION WITH RESPSECT TO WHICH A JURY TRIAL CANNOT OR HAS NOT BEEN WAIVED.
(d) TRUE AND CORRECT COPY . MORTGAGOR ACKNOWLEDGES THAT MORTGAGOR HAS RECEIVED, WITHOUT CHARGE, A TRUE AND CORRECT COPY OF THIS MORTGAGE.
(e) Mortgagor and Mortgagee may agree to change the interest rate, Maturity Date, or other term or terms of this Mortgage, or any Loan Documents, or of the Indebtedness secured hereby. Any such agreement shall be in writing, duly executed by both Mortgagor and Mortgagee. In the event any such agreement shall occur, it shall, to the extent permitted by law, be deemed a modification as defined in N.J.S.A. §46:9-8.1 et seq., and this Mortgage shall be subject to, and Mortgagee shall be the beneficiary of, the mortgage lien priority provisions of N.J.S.A. §46:9-8.2. Further, all advances made under the Loan Documents, including any future advances, whether or not entitled to priority under N.J.S.A. §46:9-8.2, shall be deemed obligatory advances when made, shall be secured hereby, and shall, to the maximum extent possible under the law, relate back as to lien priority to the date when this Mortgage was left for recording with the Morris County recorder of deeds. By placing or accepting any lien or encumbrance against any and/or all of the Land, the holder thereof shall be deemed to have agreed to the maximum extent possible under the law that its lien or encumbrance shall be subject and subordinate in lien priority to this Mortgage and to any subsequent advances made under the Loan Documents, to all accrued and unpaid interest and to all other sums secured hereby.
THE CONDITION OF THIS MORTGAGE is such that whereas Mortgagor is indebted to Mortgagee in the sum of $32,585,000, as evidenced by the two Notes of even date herewith in the face amount of said sum executed by Mortgagor and delivered to Mortgagee, and this Mortgage is made to secure the payment of the principal and interest due under the Notes and performance and discharge of Mortgagors obligations, covenants, and agreements under the Notes and the Loan Documents;
NOW, THEREFORE, if said Notes shall be well and truly paid according to their tenor and if all the terms, covenants, conditions and agreements of Mortgagor herein contained shall be fully and faithfully performed, observed and complied with, then this Mortgage shall be void, but otherwise shall remain in full force and effect.
[Remainder of page intentionally left blank; signature page to follow.]
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Mortgagor has duly executed and delivered this Mortgage under seal as of the day and year first above written.

GENERAL PROVISIONS
1. Payment of Indebtedness and Incorporation of Covenants, Conditions and Agreements . Mortgagor shall pay the Indebtedness at the time and in the manner provided in the Note, this Mortgage and the other Loan Documents. All the covenants, conditions and agreements contained in the Note and the other Loan Documents are hereby made a part of this Mortgage to the same extent and with the same force as if fully set forth herein.
2. Warranty of Title . Mortgagor has good and marketable title to the Mortgaged Property; Mortgagor has the right to mortgage, give, grant, bargain, sell, alienate, enfeoff, convey, confirm, pledge, lease, assign, hypothecate and grant a security interest in the Mortgaged Property; Mortgagor possesses an indefeasible fee estate in the Real Property; and Mortgagor owns the Mortgaged Property free and clear of all liens, encumbrances and charges whatsoever except those exceptions shown in the title insurance policy insuring the lien of this Mortgage (this Mortgage and the liens, encumbrances and charges shown as exceptions in such title policy, hereinafter collectively referred to as the Permitted Encumbrances ). Mortgagor shall forever warrant, defend and preserve such title and the validity and priority of the lien of this Mortgage and shall forever warrant and defend the same to Mortgagee against the claims of all persons whomsoever.
3. Condemnation . Mortgagor shall promptly give Mortgagee written notice of the actual or threatened commencement of any condemnation or eminent domain proceeding and shall deliver to Mortgagee copies of any and all papers served in connection with such proceedings. Following the occurrence of a condemnation, Mortgagor, regardless of whether an award is available, shall promptly proceed to restore, repair, replace or rebuild the Improvements to the extent practicable to be of at least equal value and of substantially the same character as prior to such condemnation, all to be effected in accordance with applicable law. Notwithstanding any taking by any public or quasi-public authority through eminent domain or otherwise (including but not limited to any transfer made in lieu of or in anticipation of the exercise of such taking), Mortgagor shall continue to pay the Indebtedness at the time and in the manner provided for its payment in the Note, in this Mortgage and the other Loan Documents and the Indebtedness shall not be reduced until any award or payment therefor shall have been actually received after expenses of collection and applied by Mortgagee to the discharge of the
Indebtedness. Mortgagor shall cause the award or payment made in any condemnation or eminent domain proceeding, which is payable to Mortgagor, to be paid directly to Mortgagee. Mortgagee may, at Mortgagees election, use the award in any one or more of the following ways: (a) apply any such award or payment (for purposes of this Paragraph 3 , the award or payment that may be made in any condemnation or eminent domain proceeding shall mean the entire award allocated to Mortgagor in any capacity) to the discharge of the Indebtedness whether or not then due and payable (such application to be without prepayment fee or premium, except that if an Event of Default, or an event which with notice and/or the passage of time, or both, would constitute an Event of Default, has occurred, then such application shall be subject to the applicable premium computed in accordance with the Note), (b) use the same or any part thereof to fulfill any of the covenants contained herein as the Mortgagee may determine, (c) use the same or any part thereof to replace or restore the Mortgaged Property to a condition satisfactory to the Mortgagee, or (d) release the same to the Mortgagor. If the Mortgaged Property is sold, through foreclosure or otherwise, prior to the receipt by Mortgagee of such award or payment, Mortgagee shall have the right, whether or not a deficiency judgment on the Note shall have been sought, recovered or denied, to receive said award or payment or a portion thereof sufficient to pay the Indebtedness.
4. Leases and Rents .
(a) Mortgagor does hereby absolutely and unconditionally assign to Mortgagee its right, title and interest in all current and future Leases and Rents and all proceeds from the sale, cancellation, surrender or other disposition of the Leases, it being intended by Mortgagor that this assignment constitutes a present, absolute assignment and not an assignment for additional security only. Such assignment to Mortgagee shall not be construed to bind Mortgagee to the performance of any of the covenants, conditions or provisions contained in any such Lease or otherwise to impose any obligation upon Mortgagee. Mortgagor agrees to execute and deliver to Mortgagee such additional instruments in form and substance satisfactory to Mortgagee, as may hereafter be requested by Mortgagee to further evidence and confirm such assignment. Nevertheless, subject to the terms of this Paragraph 4, Mortgagee grants to Mortgagor a revocable license to operate and manage the Mortgaged Property and to collect the Rents. Mortgagor shall hold the Rents, or a portion thereof sufficient to discharge all current sums due on the Indebtedness, in trust for the benefit of Mortgagee for use in the payment of such sums. The grant of the foregoing license is subject to the provisions of Paragraph 1 of the separate Assignment of Leases and Rents of even date herewith granted by the Mortgagor as Assignor to the Mortgagee as Assignee with respect to the Mortgaged Property ( Assignment of Leases and Rents ). Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the license granted to Mortgagor herein shall be automatically revoked and Mortgagee shall immediately be entitled to possession of all Rents, whether or not Mortgagee enters upon or takes control of the Mortgaged Property. Mortgagee is hereby granted and assigned by Mortgagor the right, at its option, upon the revocation of the license granted herein to enter upon the Mortgaged Property in person, by agent or by court-appointed receiver to collect the Rents. Any Rents collected after the revocation of the license herein granted may be applied toward payment of the Indebtedness in such priority and proportion as Mortgagee in its discretion shall deem proper. It is further the intent of Mortgagor and Mortgagee that the Rents hereby absolutely assigned are no longer, during the term of this Mortgage, property of Mortgagor or property of any estate of Mortgagor as defined in Section 541 of the Bankruptcy Code and shall not constitute collateral, cash or
otherwise, of Mortgagor. The term Rents as used herein shall mean the gross rents without deduction or offsets of any kind.
(b) All Leases executed after the date of this Mortgage shall provide that they are subordinate to this Mortgage and that the lessee agrees to attorn to Mortgagee; provided , however , that nothing herein shall affect Mortgagees right to designate from time to time any one or more Leases as being superior to this Mortgage and Mortgagor shall execute and deliver to Mortgagee and shall cause to be executed and delivered to Mortgagee from each tenant under such Lease any instrument or agreement as Mortgagee may deem necessary to make such Lease superior to this Mortgage. Upon request, Mortgagor shall promptly furnish Mortgagee with executed copies of all Leases.
(c) Mortgagor shall not, without the prior consent of Mortgagee, (i) lease all or any part of the Mortgaged Property, (ii) alter or change the terms of any Lease or cancel or terminate, abridge or otherwise modify the terms of any Lease, (iii) consent to any assignment of or subletting under any Lease not in accordance with its terms, (iv) cancel, terminate, abridge or otherwise modify any guaranty of any Lease or the terms thereof, (v) collect or accept prepayments of installments of Rents for a period of more than one (1) month in advance or (vi) further assign the whole or any part of the Leases or the Rents; provided , however , that such action as described in subsections (i)-(iv) above may be taken without Mortgagees consent for any Lease which is for not more than five percent (5%) of the total net rentable square feet of space then occupied or available for occupancy at the Mortgaged Property provides for, an annual rent of not more than five percent (5%) of the total rentable income then being paid with respect to all of the Mortgaged Property, requires tenant to pay market rent for the entire term of said Lease, and has a term (including the renewal or extension term) of not more than 20 years (a lease satisfying those criteria shall be referred to as a Small Lease ) so long as the taking of such action is in the ordinary course of Mortgagors business and that such action is still subject to Paragraph 1 of the separate Assignment of Leases and Rents pertaining to Termination Amounts (as defined therein).
(d) With respect to each Lease, Mortgagor shall (i) observe and perform each and every provision thereof on the lessors part to be fulfilled or performed under each Lease and not do or permit to be done anything to impair the value of the Lease as security for the Loan, including surrender or voluntary termination of any Lease, (ii) promptly send to Mortgagee copies of all notices of default which Mortgagor shall send or receive thereunder, (iii) enforce all of the terms, covenants and conditions contained in such Lease upon the lessees part to be performed, short of termination thereof, (iv) execute and deliver, at the request of Mortgagee, all such further assurances, confirmations and assignments in connection with the Mortgaged Property as Mortgagee shall, from time to time, require and (v) upon request, furnish Mortgagee with executed copies of all Leases; provided , however , the notice to Mortgagee referenced in subsection (ii) above and the restriction on termination of a Lease in connection with the enforcement of its terms, covenants and conditions set forth in (iii) above shall not be required or apply, as the case may be, for any Small Lease. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default under this Mortgage, Mortgagor shall pay monthly in advance to Mortgagee, or any receiver appointed to collect the Rents, the fair and reasonable rental value for the use and occupation of the Mortgaged Property or part of the Mortgaged Property as may be occupied by Mortgagor or any one Mortgagor and upon default in any such payment Mortgagor shall vacate
and surrender possession of the Mortgaged Property to Mortgagee or to such receiver and, in default thereof, Mortgagor may be evicted by summary proceedings or otherwise.
(e) All security deposits of tenants, whether held in cash or any other form, shall not be commingled with any other funds of Mortgagor and, if cash, shall be deposited by Mortgagor at such commercial or savings bank or banks as may be reasonably satisfactory to Mortgagee. Any bond or other instrument which Mortgagor is permitted to hold in lieu of cash security deposits under any applicable legal requirements shall be maintained in full force and effect in the full amount of such deposits unless replaced by cash deposits as hereinabove described, shall be issued by an institution reasonably satisfactory to Mortgagee, shall, if permitted pursuant to any legal requirements, name Mortgagee as payee or Mortgagee thereunder (or at Mortgagees option, be fully assignable to Mortgagee) and shall, in all respects, comply with any applicable legal requirements and otherwise be reasonably satisfactory to Mortgagee. Mortgagor shall, upon request, provide Mortgagee with evidence reasonably satisfactory to Mortgagee of Mortgagors compliance with the foregoing. Following the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, Mortgagor shall, upon Mortgagees request, if permitted by any applicable legal requirements, turn over to Mortgagee the security deposits (and any interest theretofore earned thereon) with respect to all or any portion of the Mortgaged Property, to be held by Mortgagee subject to the terms of the Leases.
5. Maintenance and Use of Mortgaged Property .

1. Payment of Principal and Interest. Principal and interest shall be paid as follows:
(a) If the loan proceeds are not disbursed on the first day of a month, then interest only at the Applicable Interest Rate from and including the date of disbursement of the loan proceeds to the first day of the month following such disbursement shall be due and payable in advance on the date of such disbursement;
(b) Interest only is to be paid in installments as follows: $50,208.38 on the first day of April, 2008 and on the first day of each calendar month thereafter up to and including the first day of March, 2013;
(c) Principal and interest is to be paid in installments as follows: $59,617.63 on the first day of April, 2013, and on the first day of each calendar month thereafter up to and including the first day of February, 2018; and
(d) The outstanding principal balance and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon and all other sums and fees due under this Note shall be due and payable on the first day of March, 2018 (the Maturity Date ).
Interest on the principal balance of this Note shall be calculated on a monthly basis using, as the agreed method of calculation, a three hundred sixty (360) day year consisting of twelve (12) months of thirty (30) days each; provided , however, that interest for a period of less than a full month shall be calculated by multiplying the actual number of days elapsed during such partial month by a daily rate based upon a three hundred sixty-five day year and the interest rate then due under this Note.
The term Applicable Interest Rate as used in this Note shall mean from the date of disbursement of the loan proceeds through and including the Maturity Date, a rate of Six and Seventeen One-Hundredths Percent (6.17%) per annum.
If at any time Payee receives, from Maker or otherwise, any amount applicable to the Debt (hereinafter defined) which is less than all amounts due and payable at such time, Payee may apply that payment to amounts then due and payable in any manner and in any order determined by Payee, in Payees sole discretion. Payee shall, however, be under no obligation to accept any amount less than all amounts then due and payable. Maker agrees that neither Payees acceptance of a payment from Maker in an amount that is less than all amounts then due and payable nor Payees application of such payment shall constitute or be deemed to constitute either a waiver of the unpaid amounts or an accord and satisfaction. This provision shall control notwithstanding any inconsistent direction by Maker or any other obligor hereunder.
This Note is issued by Maker to Payee pursuant to a certain Loan Agreement by and among Maker and John Hancock of even date herewith (the Loan Agreement ) whereby John Hancock has agreed to make three (3) separate loans to Maker in the aggregate principal amount of $105,000,000.00. This Note evidences a portion of one of such loans, which loan is in the aggregate principal amount of $21,765,000.00 (the CT Loan ), as set forth in the Loan Agreement Reference is hereby made to the Loan Agreement for a full statement of the rights of the holder of, and the nature and extent of the security for, this Note. The whole of the principal sum of this Note, together with all interest accrued and unpaid thereon and all other sums due under this Note, any other mortgage note evidencing any other portion of the CT Loan, and the Loan Agreement and any other instrument now or hereafter evidencing, securing, guaranteeing or executed in connection with the Loan Agreement or the indebtedness evidenced hereby (the Loan Documents ) (all such sums hereinafter collectively referred to as the Debt ) shall without notice become immediately due and payable at the option of Payee on the happening of an Event of Default as the same is defined in the Loan Agreement (hereinafter defined). All of the terms, covenants and conditions contained in the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents are hereby made part of this Note to the same extent and with the same force as if they were fully set forth herein. In the event of any conflict between the terms of the Note and the terms of the Loan Agreement, the Mortgages and other security instruments, the terms of this Note shall govern, except as specifically provided herein or in the Loan Agreement.
2. Prepayment . Except as provided below, Maker may not prepay the loan evidenced by this Note in whole or in part.
On or after the end of the fifth (5 th ) Loan Year (as hereinafter defined), on any scheduled payment date and subject to giving Payee not less than thirty (30) nor more than ninety (90) days prior written notice specifying the scheduled payment date on which prepayment is to be made (the Prepayment Date ), Maker may prepay the entire principal amount together with any and all accrued interest and other sums due under the Loan Documents, and subject to payment of a prepayment premium equal to the greater of:
(a) the positive amount, if any, equal to (i) the sum of the present values of all scheduled payments due under the Note from the Prepayment Date to and including the Maturity Date, minus (ii) the principal balance of the Note immediately prior to such prepayment; or
(b) 1.0% of the principal balance of the Note immediately prior to such prepayment.
All present values shall be calculated as of the Prepayment Date, using a discount rate, compounded monthly, equal to the yield rate plus twenty-five (25) basis points, converted to its monthly equivalent, of the United States Treasury Security having the closest maturity date to the Maturity Date of the Note as established in the Wall Street Journal or other business publication of general circulation five (5) business days before the Prepayment Date.
In the event that the yield rate on publicly traded United States Treasury Securities is not obtainable, then the nearest equivalent issue or index shall be selected, at Payees reasonable determination, and used to calculate the prepayment premium.
The loan evidenced by this Note will be open to prepayment without premium on any scheduled payment date during the last ninety (90) days of the term of this Note.
If any notice of prepayment is given, the principal balance of the loan evidenced by this Note and the other sums required pursuant to this Section 2 shall be due and payable on the Prepayment Date, unless Maker provides written notice to Payee that it is revoking said prepayment notice no later than five (5) business days prior to the Prepayment Date.
Provided no default exists under the Loan Documents, the above premium shall not be applicable to a prepayment resulting from Payees election to require insurance loss proceeds or condemnation awards to be applied to a payment of principal.
No partial prepayment shall be allowed.
The Loan Year is defined as any twelve month period commencing with the date on which the first monthly installment is due or any anniversary thereof.
3. Acceleration/Default. Maker acknowledges that the loan evidenced by this Note was made on the basis and assumption that Payee would receive the payments of principal and interest set forth herein for the full term of this Note. Therefore, whenever the Maturity Date of the loan evidenced by this Note has been accelerated by reason of an Event of Default under the Loan Documents, which Event of Default occurs prior to the time period, if any, in which prepayment is allowed and prior to the date on which the full amount of the balance of principal and interest then remaining unpaid shall be due, including an acceleration by reason of sale, conveyance, further encumbrance or other Event of Default (which acceleration shall be at Payees sole option), there shall be due, in addition to the outstanding principal balance, accrued interest and other sums due under the Loan Documents, a premium equal to the greater of:
(a) The sum obtained by adding:
(i) the positive amount, if any, equal to (aa) the sum of the present values of all scheduled payments due under this Note from the date of said payment to and including the Maturity Date of the Note, minus (bb) the then outstanding principal balance of the Note, and
(ii) 1.0% of the then outstanding principal balance of the Note; or
(b) An amount equal to 10.0 % of the then outstanding principal balance of the Note.
All present values shall be calculated as of the date of said payment, using a discount rate, compounded monthly, equal to the yield rate, converted to its monthly equivalent, of the United States Treasury Security having the closest maturity date to the Maturity Date of the Note as established in the Wall Street Journal or other business publication of general circulation five (5) business days before the date of said payment. In the event that the yield rate on publicly traded United States Treasury Securities is not obtainable, then the nearest equivalent issue or index shall be selected, at Payees reasonable determination, and used to calculate the prepayment premium.
If an Event of Default occurs on or after the date on which prepayment is permitted, then in lieu of the above premium, payment of a premium calculated in the manner set forth in Section 2 hereof shall be required.
A tender of the amount necessary to satisfy the entire indebtedness, paid at any time following such Event of Default or acceleration, including at a foreclosure sale or during any subsequent redemption period, if any, shall be deemed a voluntary prepayment, and, at Payees option, such payment shall include a premium as described above.
4. Default Rate. Maker does hereby agree that upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and while any Event of Default exists, including, without limitation, the failure of Maker to pay the Debt in full on the Maturity Date, Payee shall be entitled to receive and Maker shall pay interest on the entire unpaid principal sum, effective from the date of Makers initial default with respect to such Event of Default without allowance for any applicable notice and/or grace period, at a rate (the Default Rate ) equal to seven percent (7%) above the Applicable Interest Rate, but in no event to exceed the highest rate permitted under the laws of the jurisdiction where the property secured by the Mortgage is situated. Notwithstanding the provisions of any statute or regulation to the contrary, the Default Rate shall apply to all sums evidenced hereby upon, during and after an Event of Default as provided herein, and also after entry of a judgment or judgments against Maker (whether in a mortgage foreclosure action or otherwise), and whether or not any event described in Paragraph 3.12 of the Loan Agreement hereof has occurred.
This charge shall be added to the Debt, and shall be deemed secured by the Mortgage. This clause, however, shall not be construed as an agreement or privilege to extend the date of the payment of the Debt, nor as a waiver of any other right or remedy available to Payee by reason of the occurrence of any Event of Default.
5. Late Charge . If any monthly principal and interest payment payable under this Note is not paid in full within five (5) days of the date on which it is due, Maker shall pay to Payee an amount equal to the lesser of five percent (5%) of such unpaid sum or the maximum amount permitted by applicable law to defray the expenses incurred by Payee in handling and processing such delinquent payment and to compensate Payee for the loss of the use of such delinquent payment and such amount shall be secured by the Loan Documents.
6. Security for Loan. This Note is secured by, among other things, the Mortgage and certain other Loan Documents as set forth in the Loan Agreement. The term Mortgage as used in this Note shall mean that certain Open-End Mortgage Deed, Assignment of Leases and Rents, Security Agreement and Fixture Filing dated the date hereof in the principal sum of the CT Loan given by Maker for the use and benefit of Payee covering certain premises located at 269 South Lambert Road, 12 Cascade Boulevard, 15 and 25 Executive Boulevard and 22 Marsh Hill Road in Orange, Connecticut, 950 Bridgeport Avenue in Milford, Connecticut and 470 Bridgeport Avenue in Shelton, Connecticut.
7. Compliance with Law. It is expressly stipulated and agreed to be the intent of Maker and Payee at all times to comply with applicable state law or applicable United States federal law (to the extent that it permits Payee to contract for, charge, take, reserve or receive a greater amount of interest than under state law) and that this paragraph shall control every other covenant and agreement in this Note, the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents. If the applicable law (state or federal) is ever judicially interpreted so as to render usurious any amount called for under this Note or any of the other Loan Documents, or contracted for, charged, taken, reserved or received with respect to the Debt, or if Payees exercise of the option to accelerate the Maturity Date, or if any prepayment by Maker results in Makers having paid any interest in excess of that permitted by applicable law, then it is Payees express intent that all excess amounts theretofore collected by Payee shall be credited on the principal balance of this Note and all other Debt and the provisions of this Note, and the other Loan Documents immediately be deemed reformed and the amounts thereafter collectible hereunder and thereunder reduced, without the necessity of the execution of any new documents, so as to comply with the applicable law, but so as to permit the recovery of the fullest amount otherwise called for hereunder or thereunder. All sums paid or agreed to be paid to Payee for the use or forbearance of the Debt shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread throughout the full stated term of the Debt until payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of the Debt does not exceed the maximum lawful rate from time to time in effect and applicable to the Debt for so long as the Debt is outstanding. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or in any of the other Loan Documents, it is not the intention of Payee to accelerate the maturity of any interest that has not accrued at the time of such acceleration or to collect unearned interest at the time of such acceleration.
8. Amendments . This Note may not be modified, amended, waived, extended, changed, discharged or terminated orally or by any act or failure to act on the part of Maker or Payee, but only by an agreement in writing signed by the party against whom enforcement of any modification, amendment, waiver, extension, change, discharge or termination is sought.
9. Joint and Several Liability . If Maker consists of more than one person or party, the obligations and liabilities of each such person or party shall be joint and several.
10. Construction . Whenever used, the singular number shall include the plural, the plural the singular, and the words Payee and Maker shall include their respective successors, assigns, heirs, executors and administrators.
11. Waivers . Maker and all others who may become liable for the payment of all or any part of the Debt do hereby severally waive presentment and demand for payment, notice of dishonor, protest, notice of protest and non-payment and notice of intent to accelerate the maturity hereof (and of such acceleration). No release of any security for the Debt or extension of time for payment of this Note or any installment hereof and no alteration, amendment or waiver of any provision of this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or any other Loan Documents made by agreement between Payee and any other person or party shall release, modify, amend, waive, extend, change, discharge, terminate or affect the liability of Maker and any other who may become liable for the payment of all or any part of the Debt, under this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or any other Loan Documents.
12. Authority . Maker (and the undersigned representative of Maker, if any) represents that Maker has full power, authority and legal right to execute, deliver and perform its obligations pursuant to this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents and that this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents constitute valid and binding obligations of Maker.
13. Time . Time is of the essence of this Note.
14. Replacement Note . In the event of the loss, theft or destruction of this Note, upon Makers receipt of a reasonably satisfactory indemnification agreement executed in favor of Maker by Payee or in the event of the mutilation of this Note, upon the surrender of the mutilated Note by Payee to Maker, Maker shall execute and deliver to Payee a new mortgage note in form and content identical to this Note in lieu of the lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note.
15. Notice . All notices required to be given pursuant hereto shall be given in the manner specified in the Loan Agreement directed to the parties at their respective addresses as provided therein.
16. Costs and Expenses . Maker shall pay all expenses and costs, including fees and out-of-pocket expenses of attorneys and expert witnesses and costs of investigation incurred by Payee as a result of any Event of Default or in connection with efforts to collect any amount due under this Note or to enforce the provisions of any of the Loan Documents, including those incurred in post-judgment collection efforts and in any bankruptcy proceeding (including any action for relief from the automatic stay of any bankruptcy proceeding) or judicial or non-judicial foreclosure proceeding.
17. Forbearance . Any forbearance by Payee in exercising any right or remedy under this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or any other Loan Document or otherwise afforded by applicable law shall not be a waiver of or preclude the exercise of that or any other right or remedy. The acceptance by Payee of any payment after the due date of such payment or in an amount which is less than the required payment shall not be a waiver of Payees right to require prompt payment when due of all other payments or to exercise any right or remedy with respect to any failure to make prompt payment. Enforcement by Payee of any security for Makers obligations under this Note shall not constitute an election by Payee of remedies so as to preclude the exercise of any other right or remedy available to Payee.
18. Section Headings . The Section headings inserted in this Note have been included for convenience only and are not intended and shall not be construed to limit or define in any way the substance of any section contained herein.
19. Limitation on Liability . Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, but subject to the obligations of Section 6.6 of the Loan Agreement, any claim based on or in respect of any liability of Maker under this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or any other Loan Document shall be enforced only against the Mortgaged Property (as such term is defined in the Mortgage) and any other collateral now or hereafter given to secure this Note and not against any other assets, properties or funds of Maker; provided , however, that the liability of Maker for loss, costs or damage arising out of the matters described in the subsections below (collectively, Non-Recourse Carveout Obligations ) shall not be limited solely to the Mortgaged Property and other collateral now or hereafter given to secure this Note but shall include all of the assets, properties and funds of Maker: (i) fraud, misrepresentation and waste; (ii) any rents, issues or profits collected more than one (1) month in advance of their due dates; (iii) any misapplication of rents, issues or profits, security deposits and any other payments from tenants or occupants (including, without limitation, lease termination fees), insurance proceeds, condemnation awards or other sums of a similar nature; (iv) liability under environmental covenants, conditions and indemnities contained in the Loan Agreement, including, without limitation, Section 3.9, the Mortgage and in any separate environmental indemnity agreements; (v) personalty or fixtures removed or allowed to be removed by or on behalf of Maker and not replaced by items of equal or greater value or functionality than the personalty or fixtures so removed; (vi) failure to pay taxes, assessments or ground rents prior to delinquency, or to pay charges for labor, materials or other charges which can create liens on any portion of the Mortgaged Property before such charges become a lien on such Mortgaged Property or any portion thereof and any sums expended by Payee in the performance of or compliance with the obligations of Maker under the Loan Documents, including, without limitation, sums expended to pay taxes or assessments or hazard insurance premiums or bills for utilities or other services or products for the benefit of the Mortgaged Property; (vii) the unauthorized sale, conveyance or transfer of title to the Mortgaged Property or encumbrance of the Mortgaged Property; (viii) the failure of Maker to maintain its status as a single purpose, bankruptcy-remote entity pursuant to its organizational documents and the Loan Documents; (ix) a violation of the provisions of Section 3.7(h) of the Loan Agreement; (x) the filing of any action to partition the Mortgaged Property or any Individual Property (as defined in the Loan Agreement) or the occurrence of any such partition or any sale pursuant to any such action; (xi) the transfer of any TIC (as defined in the Loan Agreement) interests in any of the Mortgaged Property or any Individual Property, or any direct or indirect interests in the holder of any such TIC interest, other than as expressly permitted under Section 3.4(h) of the Loan Agreement; (xii) the termination, cancellation or non- renewal of an Approved Manager (as defined in the Loan Agreement) or any other failure of an Approved Manager to serve as manager of any Permitted TIC (as defined in the Loan Agreement); (xiii) the failure of any Approved Manager to meet the Management Requirements (as defined in the Loan Agreement); and (xiv) attorneys fees, court costs and other expenses incurred by Payee in connection with enforcement of its remedies under the Loan Documents, including, but not limited to, in connection with any bankruptcy proceeding or reorganization brought by or against Maker or any Principal (as defined in the Loan Agreement) of Maker.

1. Payment of Principal and Interest . Principal and interest shall be paid as follows:
(a) If the loan proceeds are not disbursed on the first day of a month, then interest only at the Applicable Interest Rate from and including the date of disbursement of the loan proceeds to the first day of the month following such disbursement shall be due and payable in advance on the date of such disbursement;
(b) Interest only is to be paid in installments as follows: $51,200.00 on the first day of April, 2008 and on the first day of each calendar month thereafter up to and including the first day of February, 2011; and
(c) The outstanding principal balance and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon and all other sums and fees due under this Note shall be due and payable on the first day of March, 2011 (the Maturity Date ).
Interest on the principal balance of this Note shall be calculated on a monthly basis using, as the agreed method of calculation, a three hundred sixty (360) day year consisting of twelve (12) months of thirty (30) days each; provided , however , that interest for a period of less than a full month shall be calculated by multiplying the actual number of days elapsed during such partial month by a daily rate based upon a three hundred sixty-five day year and the interest rate then due under this Note.
The term Applicable Interest Rate as used in this Note shall mean from the date of disbursement of the loan proceeds through and including the Maturity Date, a rate of Five and Twelve One-Hundredths Percent (5.12%) per annum.
If at any time Payee receives, from Maker or otherwise, any amount applicable to the Debt (hereinafter defined) which is less than all amounts due and payable at such time, Payee may apply that payment to amounts then due and payable in any manner and in any order determined by Payee, in Payees sole discretion. Payee shall, however, be under no obligation to accept any amount less than all amounts then due and payable. Maker agrees that neither Payees acceptance of a payment from Maker in an amount that is less than all amounts then due and payable nor Payees application of such payment shall constitute or be deemed to constitute either a waiver of the unpaid amounts or an accord and satisfaction. This provision shall control notwithstanding any inconsistent direction by Maker or any other obligor hereunder.
This Note is issued by Maker to Payee pursuant to a certain Loan Agreement by and among Maker and John Hancock of even date herewith (the Loan Agreement ) whereby John Hancock has agreed to make three (3) separate loans to Maker in the aggregate principal amount of $105,000,000.00. This Note evidences a portion of one of such loans, which loan is in the aggregate principal amount of $21,765,000.00 (the CT Loan ), as set forth in the Loan Agreement. Reference is hereby made to the Loan Agreement for a full statement of the rights of the holder of, and the nature and extent of the security for, this Note. The whole of the principal sum of this Note, together with all interest accrued and unpaid thereon and all other sums due under this Note, any other mortgage note evidencing any other portion of the CT Loan, and the Loan Agreement and any other instrument now or hereafter evidencing, securing, guaranteeing or executed in connection with the Loan Agreement or the indebtedness evidenced hereby (the Loan Documents ) (all such sums hereinafter collectively referred to as the Debt ) shall without notice become immediately due and payable at the option of Payee on the happening of an Event of Default as the same is defined in the Loan Agreement (hereinafter defined). All of the terms, covenants and conditions contained in the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents are hereby made part of this Note to the same extent and with the same force as if they were fully set forth herein. In the event of any conflict between the terms of the Note and the terms of the Loan Agreement, the Mortgages and other security instruments, the terms of this Note shall govern, except as specifically provided herein or in the Loan Agreement.
2. Prepayment . Except as provided below, Maker may not prepay the loan evidenced by this Note in whole or in part.
On or after the end of the first 1.5 Loan Years (as hereinafter defined), on any scheduled payment date and subject to giving Payee not less than thirty (30) nor more than ninety (90) days prior written notice specifying the scheduled payment date on which prepayment is to be made (the Prepayment Date ), Maker may prepay the entire principal amount together with any and all accrued interest and other sums due under the Loan Documents, and subject to payment of a prepayment premium equal to the greater of:
(a) the positive amount, if any, equal to (i) the sum of the present values of all scheduled payments due under the Note from the Prepayment Date to and including the Maturity Date, minus (ii) the principal balance of the Note immediately prior to such prepayment; or
(b) 1.0% of the principal balance of the Note immediately prior to such prepayment.
All present values shall be calculated as of the Prepayment Date, using a discount rate, compounded monthly, equal to the yield rate plus twenty-five (25) basis points, converted to its monthly equivalent, of the United States Treasury Security having the closest maturity date to the Maturity Date of the Note as established in the Wall Street Journal or other business publication of general circulation five (5) business days before the Prepayment Date.
In the event that the yield rate on publicly traded United States Treasury Securities is not obtainable, then the nearest equivalent issue or index shall be selected, at Payees reasonable determination, and used to calculate the prepayment premium.
The loan evidenced by this Note will be open to prepayment without premium on any scheduled payment date during the last ninety (90) days of the term of this Note.
If any notice of prepayment is given, the principal balance of the loan evidenced by this Note and the other sums required pursuant to this Section 2 shall be due and payable on the Prepayment Date, unless Maker provides written notice to Payee that it is revoking said prepayment notice no later than five (5) business days prior to the Prepayment Date.
Provided no default exists under the Loan Documents, the above premium shall not be applicable to a prepayment resulting from Payees election to require insurance loss proceeds or condemnation awards to be applied to a payment of principal.
No partial prepayment shall be allowed.
The Loan Year is defined as any twelve month period commencing with the date on which the first monthly installment is due or any anniversary thereof.
3. Acceleration/Default . Maker acknowledges that the loan evidenced by this Note was made on the basis and assumption that Payee would receive the payments of principal and interest set forth herein for the full term of this Note. Therefore, whenever the Maturity Date of the loan evidenced by this Note has been accelerated by reason of an Event of Default under the Loan Documents, which Event of Default occurs prior to the time period, if any, in which prepayment is allowed and prior to the date on which the full amount of the balance of principal and interest then remaining unpaid shall be due, including an acceleration by reason of sale, conveyance, further encumbrance or other Event of Default (which acceleration shall be at Payees sole option), there shall be due, in addition to the outstanding principal balance, accrued interest and other sums due under the Loan Documents, a premium equal to the greater of:
(a) The sum obtained by adding:
(i) the positive amount, if any, equal to (aa) the sum of the present values of all scheduled payments due under this Note from the date of said payment to and including the Maturity Date of the Note, minus (bb) the then outstanding principal balance of the Note, and
(ii) 1.0 % of the then outstanding principal balance of the Note; or
(b) An amount equal to 10.0 % of the then outstanding principal balance of the Note.
All present values shall be calculated as of the date of said payment, using a discount rate, compounded monthly, equal to the yield rate, converted to its monthly equivalent, of the United States Treasury Security having the closest maturity date to the Maturity Date of the Note as established in the Wall Street Journal or other business publication of general circulation five (5) business days before the date of said payment. In the event that the yield rate on publicly traded United States Treasury Securities is not obtainable, then the nearest equivalent issue or index shall be selected, at Payees reasonable determination, and used to calculate the prepayment premium.
If an Event of Default occurs on or after the date on which prepayment is permitted, then in lieu of the above premium, payment of a premium calculated in the manner set forth in Section 2 hereof shall be required.
A tender of the amount necessary to satisfy the entire indebtedness, paid at any time following such Event of Default or acceleration, including at a foreclosure sale or during any subsequent redemption period, if any, shall be deemed a voluntary prepayment, and, at Payees option, such payment shall include a premium as described above.
4. Default Rate . Maker does hereby agree that upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and while any Event of Default exists, including, without limitation, the failure of Maker to pay the Debt in full on the Maturity Date, Payee shall be entitled to receive and Maker shall pay interest on the entire unpaid principal sum, effective from the date of Makers initial default with respect to such Event of Default without allowance for any applicable notice and/or grace period, at a rate (the Default Rate ) equal to seven percent (7%) above the Applicable Interest Rate, but in no event to exceed the highest rate permitted under the laws of the jurisdiction where the property secured by the Mortgage is situated. Notwithstanding the provisions of any statute or regulation to the contrary, the Default Rate shall apply to all sums evidenced hereby upon, during and after an Event of Default as provided herein, and also after entry of a judgment or judgments against Maker (whether in a mortgage foreclosure action or otherwise), and whether or not any event described in Paragraph 3.12 of the Loan Agreement hereof has occurred. This charge shall be added to the Debt, and shall be deemed secured by the Mortgage. This clause, however, shall not be construed as an agreement or privilege to extend the date of the payment of the Debt, nor as a waiver of any other right or remedy available to Payee by reason of the occurrence of any Event of Default.
5. Late Charge . If any monthly principal and interest payment payable under this Note is not paid in full within five (5) days of the date on which it is due, Maker shall pay to Payee an amount equal to the lesser of five percent (5%) of such unpaid sum or the maximum amount permitted by applicable law to defray the expenses incurred by Payee in handling and processing such delinquent payment and to compensate Payee for the loss of the use of such delinquent payment and such amount shall be secured by the Loan Documents.
6. Security for Loan . This Note is secured by, among other things, the Mortgage and certain other Loan Documents as set forth in the Loan Agreement. The term Mortgage as used in this Note shall mean that certain Open-End Mortgage Deed, Assignment of Leases and Rents, Security Agreement and Fixture Filing dated the date hereof in the principal sum of the CT Loan given by Maker for the use and benefit of Payee covering certain premises located at 269 South Lambert Road, 12 Cascade Boulevard, 15 and 25 Executive Boulevard and 22 Marsh Hill Road in Orange, Connecticut, 950 Bridgeport Avenue in Milford, Connecticut and 470 Bridgeport Avenue in Shelton, Connecticut.
7. Compliance with Law . It is expressly stipulated and agreed to be the intent of Maker and Payee at all times to comply with applicable state law or applicable United States federal law (to the extent that it permits Payee to contract for, charge, take, reserve or receive a greater amount of interest than under state law) and that this paragraph shall -control every other covenant and agreement in this Note, the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents. If the applicable law (state or federal) is ever judicially interpreted so as to render usurious any amount called for under this Note or any of the other Loan Documents, or contracted for, charged, taken, reserved or received with respect to the Debt, or if Payees exercise of the option to accelerate the Maturity Date, or if any prepayment by Maker results in Makers having paid any interest in excess of that permitted by applicable law, then it is Payees express intent that all excess amounts theretofore collected by Payee shall be credited on the principal balance of this Note and all other Debt and the provisions of this Note, and the other Loan Documents immediately be deemed reformed and the amounts thereafter collectible hereunder and thereunder reduced, without the necessity of the execution of any new documents, so as to comply with the applicable law, but so as to permit the recovery of the fullest amount otherwise called for hereunder or thereunder. All sums paid or agreed to be paid to Payee for the use or forbearance of the Debt shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread throughout the full stated term of the Debt until payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of the Debt does not exceed the maximum lawful rate from time to time in effect and applicable to the Debt for so long as the Debt is outstanding. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or in any of the other Loan Documents, it is not the intention of Payee to accelerate the maturity of any interest that has not accrued at the time of such acceleration or to collect unearned interest at the time of such acceleration.
8. Amendments . This Note may not be modified, amended, waived, extended, changed, discharged or terminated orally or by any act or failure to act on the part of Maker or Payee, but only by an agreement in writing signed by the party against whom enforcement of any modification, amendment, waiver, extension, change, discharge or termination is sought.
9. Joint and Several Liability . If Maker consists of more than one person or party, the obligations and liabilities of each such person or party shall be joint and several.
10. Construction . Whenever used, the singular number shall include the plural, the plural the singular, and the words Payee and Maker shall include their respective successors, assigns, heirs, executors and administrators.
11. Waivers . Maker and all others who may become liable for the payment of all or any part of the Debt do hereby severally waive presentment and demand for payment, notice of dishonor, protest, notice of protest and non-payment and notice of intent to accelerate the maturity hereof (and of such acceleration). No release of any security for the Debt or extension of time for payment of this Note or any installment hereof and no alteration, amendment or waiver of any provision of this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or any other Loan Documents made by agreement between Payee and any other person or party shall release, modify, amend, waive, extend, change, discharge, terminate or affect the liability of Maker and any other who may become liable for the payment of all or any part of the Debt, under this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or any other Loan Documents.
12. Authority . Maker (and the undersigned representative of Maker, if any) represents that Maker has full power, authority and legal right to execute, deliver and perform its obligations pursuant to this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents and that this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents constitute valid and binding obligations of Maker.
13. Time . Time is of the essence of this Note.
14. Replacement Note . In the event of the loss, theft or destruction of this Note, upon Makers receipt of a reasonably satisfactory indemnification agreement executed in favor of Maker by Payee or in the event of the mutilation of this Note, upon the surrender of the mutilated Note by Payee to Maker, Maker shall execute and deliver to Payee a new mortgage note in form and content identical to this Note in lieu of the lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note.
15. Notice . All notices required to be given pursuant hereto shall be given in the manner specified in the Loan Agreement directed to the parties at their respective addresses as provided therein.
16. Costs and Expenses .

1. Payment of Principal and Interest . Principal and interest shall be paid as follows:
(a) If the loan proceeds are not disbursed on the first day of a month, then interest only at the Applicable Interest Rate from and including the date of disbursement of the loan proceeds to the first day of the month following such disbursement shall be due and payable in advance on the date of such disbursement;
(b) Interest only is to be paid in installments as follows: $107,769.33 on the first day of April, 2008 and on the first day of each calendar month thereafter up to and including the first day of March, 2013;
(c) Principal and interest is to be paid in installments as follows: $127,965.75 on the first day of April, 2013, and on the first day of each calendar month thereafter up to and including the first day of February, 2018; and
(d) The outstanding principal balance and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon and all other sums and fees due under this Note shall be due and payable on the first day of March, 2018 (the Maturity Date ).
Interest on the principal balance of this Note shall be calculated on a monthly basis using, as the agreed method of calculation, a three hundred sixty (360) day year consisting of twelve (12) months of thirty (30) days each; provided , however , that interest for a period of less than a full month shall be calculated by multiplying the actual number of days elapsed during such partial month by a daily rate based upon a three hundred sixty-five day year and the interest rate then due under this Note.
The term Applicable Interest Rate as used in this Note shall mean from the date of disbursement of the loan proceeds through and including the Maturity Date, a rate of Six and Seventeen One-Hundredths Percent (6.17%) per annum.
If at any time Payee receives, from Maker or otherwise, any amount applicable to the Debt (hereinafter defined) which is less than all amounts due and payable at such time, Payee may apply that payment to amounts then due and payable in any manner and in any order determined by Payee, in Payees sole discretion. Payee shall, however, be under no obligation to accept any amount less than all amounts then due and payable. Maker agrees that neither Payees acceptance of a payment from Maker in an amount that is less than all amounts then due and payable nor Payees application of such payment shall constitute or be deemed to constitute either a waiver of the unpaid amounts or an accord and satisfaction. This provision shall control notwithstanding any inconsistent direction by Maker or any other obligor hereunder.
This Note is issued by Maker to Payee pursuant to a certain Loan Agreement by and among Maker and John Hancock of even date herewith (the Loan Agreement ) whereby John Hancock has agreed to make three (3) separate loans to Maker in the aggregate principal amount of $105,000,000.00. This Note evidences a portion of one of such loans, which loan is in the aggregate principal amount of $32,585,000.00 (the NJ Loan ), as set forth in the Loan Agreement. Reference is hereby made to the Loan Agreement for a full statement of the rights of the holder of, and the nature and extent of the security for, this Note. The whole of the principal sum of this Note, together with all interest accrued and unpaid thereon and all other sums due under this Note, any other mortgage note evidencing any other portion of the NJ Loan, and the Loan Agreement and any other instrument now or hereafter evidencing, securing, guaranteeing or executed in connection with the Loan Agreement or the indebtedness evidenced hereby (the Loan Documents ) (all such sums hereinafter collectively referred to as the Debt ) shall without notice become immediately due and payable at the option of Payee on the happening of an Event of Default as the same is defined in the Loan Agreement (hereinafter defined). All of the terms, covenants and conditions contained in the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents are hereby made part of this Note to the same extent and with the same force as if they were fully set forth herein. In the event of any conflict between the terms of the Note and the terms of the Loan Agreement, the Mortgages and other security instruments, the terms of this Note shall govern, except as specifically provided herein or in the Loan Agreement.
2. Prepayment . Except as provided below, Maker may not prepay the loan evidenced by this Note in whole or in part.
On or after the end of the fifth (5 th ) Loan Year (as hereinafter defined), on any scheduled payment date and subject to giving Payee not less than thirty (30) nor more than ninety (90) days prior written notice specifying the scheduled payment date on which prepayment is to be made (the Prepayment Date ), Maker may prepay the entire principal amount together with any and all accrued interest and other sums due under the Loan Documents, and subject to payment of a prepayment premium equal to the greater of:
(a) the positive amount, if any, equal to (i) the sum of the present values of all scheduled payments due under the Note from the Prepayment Date to and including the Maturity Date, minus (ii) the principal balance of the Note immediately prior to such prepayment; or
(b) 1.0% of the principal balance of the Note immediately prior to such prepayment.
All present values shall be calculated as of the Prepayment Date, using a discount rate, compounded monthly, equal to the yield rate plus twenty-five (25) basis points, converted to its monthly equivalent, of the United States Treasury Security having the closest maturity date to the Maturity Date of the Note as established in the Wall Street Journal or other business publication of general circulation five (5) business days before the Prepayment Date.
In the event that the yield rate on publicly traded United States Treasury Securities is not obtainable, then the nearest equivalent issue or index shall be selected, at Payees reasonable determination, and used to calculate the prepayment premium.
The loan evidenced by this Note will be open to prepayment without premium on any scheduled payment date during the last ninety (90) days of the term of this Note.
If any notice of prepayment is given, the principal balance of the loan evidenced by this Note and the other sums required pursuant to this Section 2 shall be due and payable on the Prepayment Date, unless Maker provides written notice to Payee that it is revoking said prepayment notice no later than five (5) business days prior to the Prepayment Date.
Provided no default exists under the Loan Documents, the above premium shall not be applicable to a prepayment resulting from Payees election to require insurance loss proceeds or condemnation awards to be applied to a payment of principal.
No partial prepayment shall be allowed.
The Loan Year is defined as any twelve month period commencing with the date on which the first monthly installment is due or any anniversary thereof.
3. Acceleration/Default . Maker acknowledges that the loan evidenced by this Note was made on the basis and assumption that Payee would receive the payments of principal and interest set forth herein for the full term of this Note. Therefore, whenever the Maturity Date of the loan evidenced by this Note has been accelerated by reason of an Event of Default under the Loan Documents, which Event of Default occurs prior to the time period, if any, in which prepayment is allowed and prior to the date on which the full amount of the balance of principal and interest then remaining unpaid shall be due, including an acceleration by reason of sale, conveyance, further encumbrance or other Event of Default (which acceleration shall be at Payees sole option), there shall be due, in addition to the outstanding principal balance, accrued interest and other sums due under the Loan Documents, a premium equal to the greater of:
(a) The sum obtained by adding:
(i) the positive amount, if any, equal to (aa) the sum of the present values of all scheduled payments due under this Note from the date of said payment to and including the Maturity Date of the Note, minus (bb) the then outstanding principal balance of the Note, and
(ii) 1.0 % of the then outstanding principal balance of the Note; or
(b) An amount equal to 10.0 % of the then outstanding principal balance of the Note.
All present values shall be calculated as of the date of said payment, using a discount rate, compounded monthly, equal to the yield rate, converted to its monthly equivalent, of the United States Treasury Security having the closest maturity date to the Maturity Date of the Note as established in the Wall Street Journal or other business publication of general circulation five (5) business days before the date of said payment. In the event that the yield rate on publicly traded United States Treasury Securities is not obtainable, then the nearest equivalent issue or index shall be selected, at Payees reasonable determination, and used to calculate the prepayment premium.
If an Event of Default occurs on or after the date on which prepayment is permitted, then in lieu of the above premium, payment of a premium calculated in the manner set forth in Section 2 hereof shall be required.
A tender of the amount necessary to satisfy the entire indebtedness, paid at any time following such Event of Default or acceleration, including at a foreclosure sale or during any subsequent redemption period, if any, shall be deemed a voluntary prepayment, and, at Payees option, such payment shall include a premium as described above.
4. Default Rate . Maker does hereby agree that upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and while any Event of Default exists, including, without limitation, the failure of Maker to pay the Debt in full on the Maturity Date, Payee shall be entitled to receive and Maker shall pay interest on the entire unpaid principal sum, effective from the date of Makers initial default with respect to such Event of Default without allowance for any applicable notice and/or grace period, at a rate (the Default Rate ) equal to seven percent (7%) above the Applicable Interest Rate, but in no event to exceed the highest rate permitted under the laws of the jurisdiction where the property secured by the Mortgage is situated. Notwithstanding the provisions of any statute or regulation to the contrary, the Default Rate shall apply to all sums evidenced hereby upon, during and after an Event of Default as provided herein, and also after entry of a judgment or judgments against Maker (whether in a mortgage foreclosure action or otherwise), and whether or not any event described in Paragraph 3.12 of the Loan Agreement hereof has occurred.
This charge shall be added to the Debt, and shall be deemed secured by the Mortgage. This clause, however, shall not be construed as an agreement or privilege to extend the date of the payment of the Debt, nor as a waiver of any other right or remedy available to Payee by reason of the occurrence of any Event of Default.
5. Late Charge . If any monthly principal and interest payment payable under this Note is not paid in full within five (5) days of the date on which it is due, Maker shall pay to Payee an amount equal to the lesser of five percent (5%) of such unpaid sum or the maximum amount permitted by applicable law to defray the expenses incurred by Payee in handling and processing such delinquent payment and to compensate Payee for the loss of the use of such delinquent payment and such amount shall be secured by the Loan Documents.
6. Security for Loan . This Note is secured by, among other things, the Mortgage and certain other Loan Documents as set forth in the Loan Agreement. The term Mortgage as used in this Note shall mean that certain Mortgage, Assignment of Leases and Rents, Security Agreement and Fixture Filing dated the date hereof in the principal sum of the NJ Loan given by Maker for the use and benefit of Payee covering certain premises located at 100 American Road, Morris Plains, New Jersey, 200 American Road, Morris Plains, New Jersey, 300 American Road, Morris Plains, New Jersey, 400 American Road, Morris Plains, New Jersey and 500 American Road, Morris Plains, New Jersey.
7. Compliance with Law . It is expressly stipulated and agreed to be the intent of Maker and Payee at all times to comply with applicable state law or applicable United States federal law (to the extent that it permits Payee to contract for, charge, take, reserve or receive a greater amount of interest than under state law) and that this paragraph shall control every other covenant and agreement in this Note, the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents. If the applicable law (state or federal) is ever judicially interpreted so as to render usurious any amount called for under this Note or any of the other Loan Documents, or contracted for, charged, taken, reserved or received with respect to the Debt, or if Payees exercise of the option to accelerate the Maturity Date, or if any prepayment by Maker results in Makers having paid any interest in excess of that permitted by applicable law, then it is Payees express intent that all excess amounts theretofore collected by Payee shall be credited on the principal balance of this Note and all other Debt and the provisions of this Note, and the other Loan Documents immediately be deemed reformed and the amounts thereafter collectible hereunder and thereunder reduced, without the necessity of the execution of any new documents, so as to comply with the applicable law, but so as to permit the recovery of the fullest amount otherwise called for hereunder or thereunder. All sums paid or agreed to be paid to Payee for the use or forbearance of the Debt shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread throughout the full stated term of the Debt until payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of the Debt does not exceed the maximum lawful rate from time to time in effect and applicable to the Debt for so long as the Debt is outstanding. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or in any of the other Loan Documents, it is not the intention of Payee to accelerate the maturity of any interest that has not accrued at the time of such acceleration or to collect unearned interest at the time of such acceleration.
8. Amendments . This Note may not be modified, amended, waived, extended, changed, discharged or terminated orally or by any act or failure to act on the part of Maker or Payee, but only by an agreement in writing signed by the party against whom enforcement of any modification, amendment, waiver, extension, change, discharge or termination is sought.
9. Joint and Several Liability . If Maker consists of more than one person or party, the obligations and liabilities of each such person or party shall be joint and several.
10. Construction . Whenever used, the singular number shall include the plural, the plural the singular, and the words Payee and Maker shall include their respective successors, assigns, heirs, executors and administrators.
11. Waivers . Maker and all others who may become liable for the payment of all or any part of the Debt do hereby severally waive presentment and demand for payment, notice of dishonor, protest, notice of protest and non-payment and notice of intent to accelerate the maturity hereof (and of such acceleration). No release of any security for the Debt or extension of time for payment of this Note or any installment hereof and no alteration, amendment or waiver of any provision of this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or any other Loan Documents made by agreement between Payee and any other person or party shall release, modify, amend, waive, extend, change, discharge, terminate or affect the liability of Maker and any other who may become liable for the payment of all or any part of the Debt, under this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or any other Loan Documents.
12. Authori t y . Maker (and the undersigned representative of Maker, if any) represents that Maker has full power, authority and legal right to execute, deliver and perform its obligations pursuant to this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents and that this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents constitute valid and binding obligations of Maker.

1. Payment of Principal and Interest . Principal and interest shall be paid as follows:
(a) If the loan proceeds are not disbursed on the first day of a month, then interest only at the Applicable Interest Rate from and including the date of disbursement of the loan proceeds to the first day of the month following such disbursement shall be due and payable in advance on the date of such disbursement;
(b) Interest only is to be paid in installments as follows: $52,700.00 on the first day of April, 2008 and on the first day of each calendar month thereafter up to and including the first day of February, 2013; and
(c) The outstanding principal balance and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon and all other sums and fees due under this Note shall be due and payable on the first day of March, 2013 (the Maturity Date ).
Interest on the principal balance of this Note shall be calculated on a monthly basis using, as the agreed method of calculation, a three hundred sixty (360) day year consisting of twelve (12) months of thirty (30) days each; provided , however , that interest for a period of less than a full month shall be calculated by multiplying the actual number of days elapsed during such partial month by a daily rate based upon a three hundred sixty-five day year and the interest rate then due under this Note.
The term Applicable Interest Rate as used in this Note shall mean from the date of disbursement of the loan proceeds through and including the Maturity Date, a rate of Five and Forty-Four One-Hundredths Percent (5.44%) per annum.
If at any time Payee receives, from Maker or otherwise, any amount applicable to the Debt (hereinafter defined) which is less than all amounts due and payable at such time, Payee may apply that payment to amounts then due and payable in any manner and in any order determined by Payee, in Payees sole discretion. Payee shall, however, be under no obligation to accept any amount less than all amounts then due and payable. Maker agrees that neither Payees acceptance of a payment from Maker in an amount that is less than all amounts then due and payable nor Payees application of such payment shall constitute or be deemed to constitute either a waiver of the unpaid amounts or an accord and satisfaction. This provision shall control notwithstanding any inconsistent direction by Maker or any other obligor hereunder.
This Note is issued by Maker to Payee pursuant to a certain Loan Agreement by and among Maker and John Hancock of even date herewith (the Loan Agreement ) whereby John Hancock has agreed to make three (3) separate loans to Maker in the aggregate principal amount of $105,000,000.00. This Note evidences a portion of one of such loans, which loan is in the aggregate principal amount of $32,585,000.00 (the NJ Loan ) , as set forth in the Loan Agreement. Reference is hereby made to the Loan Agreement for a full statement of the rights of the holder of, and the nature and extent of the security for, this Note. The whole of the principal sum of this Note, together with all interest accrued and unpaid thereon and all other sums due under this Note, any other mortgage note evidencing any other portion of the NJ Loan, and the Loan Agreement and any other instrument now or hereafter evidencing, securing, guaranteeing or executed in connection with the Loan Agreement or the indebtedness evidenced hereby (the Loan Documents ) (all such sums hereinafter collectively referred to as the Debt ) shall without notice become immediately due and payable at the option of Payee on the happening of an Event of Default as the same is defined in the Loan Agreement (hereinafter defined). All of the terms, covenants and conditions contained in the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents are hereby made part of this Note to the same extent and with the same force as if they were fully set forth herein. In the event of any conflict between the terms of the Note and the terms of the Loan Agreement, the Mortgages and other security instruments, the terms of this Note shall govern, except as specifically provided herein or in the Loan Agreement.
2. Prepayment . Except as provided below, Maker may not prepay the loan evidenced by this Note in whole or in part.
On or after the end of the third (3 rd ) Loan Year (as hereinafter defined), on any scheduled payment date and subject to giving Payee not less than thirty (30) nor more than ninety (90) days prior written notice specifying the scheduled payment date on which prepayment is to be made (the Prepayment Date ) , Maker may prepay the entire principal amount together with any and all accrued interest and other sums due under the Loan Documents, and subject to payment of a prepayment premium equal to the greater of:
(a) the positive amount, if any, equal to (i) the sum of the present values of all scheduled payments due under the Note from the Prepayment Date to and including the Maturity Date, minus (ii) the principal balance of the Note immediately prior to such prepayment; or
(b) 1.0% of the principal balance of the Note immediately prior to such prepayment.
All present values shall be calculated as of the Prepayment Date, using a discount rate, compounded monthly, equal to the yield rate plus twenty-five (25) basis points, converted to its monthly equivalent, of the United States Treasury Security having the closest maturity date to the Maturity Date of the Note as established in the Wall Street Journal or other business publication of general circulation five (5) business days before the Prepayment Date.
In the event that the yield rate on publicly traded United States Treasury Securities is not obtainable, then the nearest equivalent issue or index shall be selected, at Payees reasonable determination, and used to calculate the prepayment premium.
The loan evidenced by this Note will be open to prepayment without premium on any scheduled payment date during the last ninety (90) days of the term of this Note.
If any notice of prepayment is given, the principal balance of the loan evidenced by this Note and the other sums required pursuant to this Section 2 shall be due and payable on the Prepayment Date, unless Maker provides written notice to Payee that it is revoking said prepayment notice no later than five (5) business days prior to the Prepayment Date.
Provided no default exists under the Loan Documents, the above premium shall not be applicable to a prepayment resulting from Payees election to require insurance loss proceeds or condemnation awards to be applied to a payment of principal.
No partial prepayment shall be allowed.
The Loan Year is defined as any twelve month period commencing with the date on which the first monthly installment is due or any anniversary thereof.
3. Acceleration/Default . Maker acknowledges that the loan evidenced by this Note was made on the basis and assumption that Payee would receive the payments of principal and interest set forth herein for the full term of this Note. Therefore, whenever the Maturity Date of the loan evidenced by this Note has been accelerated by reason of an Event of Default under the Loan Documents, which Event of Default occurs prior to the time period, if any, in which prepayment is allowed and prior to the date on which the full amount of the balance of principal and interest then remaining unpaid shall be due, including an acceleration by reason of sale, conveyance, further encumbrance or other Event of Default (which acceleration shall be at Payees sole option), there shall be due, in addition to the outstanding principal balance, accrued interest and other sums due under the Loan Documents, a premium equal to the greater of:
(a) The sum obtained by adding:
(i) the positive amount, if any, equal to (aa) the sum of the present values of all scheduled payments due under this Note from the date of said payment to and including the Maturity Date of the Note, minus (bb) the then outstanding principal balance of the Note, and
(ii) 1.0 % of the then outstanding principal balance of the Note; or
(b) An amount equal to 10.0 % of the then outstanding principal balance of the Note.
All present values shall be calculated as of the date of said payment, using a discount rate, compounded monthly, equal to the yield rate, converted to its monthly equivalent, of the United States Treasury Security having the closest maturity date to the Maturity Date of the Note as established in the Wall Street Journal or other business publication of general circulation five (5) business days before the date of said payment. In the event that the yield rate on publicly traded United States Treasury Securities is not obtainable, then the nearest equivalent issue or index shall be selected, at Payees reasonable determination, and used to calculate the prepayment premium.
If an Event of Default occurs on or after the date on which prepayment is permitted, then in lieu of the above premium, payment of a premium calculated in the manner set forth in Section 2 hereof shall be required.
A tender of the amount necessary to satisfy the entire indebtedness, paid at any time following such Event of Default or acceleration, including at a foreclosure sale or during any subsequent redemption period, if any, shall be deemed a voluntary prepayment, and, at Payees option, such payment shall include a premium as described above.
4. Default Rate . Maker does hereby agree that upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and while any Event of Default exists, including, without limitation, the failure of Maker to pay the Debt in full on the Maturity Date, Payee shall be entitled to receive and Maker shall pay interest on the entire unpaid principal sum, effective from the date of Makers initial default with respect to such Event of Default without allowance for any applicable notice and/or grace period, at a rate (the Default Rate ) equal to seven percent (7%) above the Applicable Interest Rate, but in no event to exceed the highest rate permitted under the laws of the jurisdiction where the property secured by the Mortgage is situated. Notwithstanding the provisions of any statute or regulation to the contrary, the Default Rate shall apply to all sums evidenced hereby upon, during and after an Event of Default as provided herein, and also after entry of a judgment or judgments against Maker (whether in a mortgage foreclosure action or otherwise), and whether or not any event described in Paragraph 3.12 of the Loan Agreement hereof has occurred. This charge shall be added to the Debt, and shall be deemed secured by the Mortgage. This clause, however, shall not be construed as an agreement or privilege to extend the date of the payment of the Debt, nor as a waiver of any other right or remedy available to Payee by reason of the occurrence of any Event of Default.
5. Late Charge . If any monthly principal and interest payment payable under this Note is not paid in full within five (5) days of the date on which it is due, Maker shall pay to Payee an amount equal to the lesser of five percent (5%) of such unpaid sum or the maximum amount permitted by applicable law to defray the expenses incurred by Payee in handling and processing such delinquent payment and to compensate Payee for the loss of the use of such delinquent payment and such amount shall be secured by the Loan Documents.
6. Security for Loan . This Note is secured by, among other things, the Mortgage and certain other Loan Documents as set forth in the Loan Agreement. The term Mortgage as used in this Note shall mean that certain Open-End Mortgage Deed, Assignment of Leases and Rents, Security Agreement and Fixture Filing dated the date hereof in the principal sum of the NJ Loan given by Maker for the use and benefit of Payee covering certain premises located at 100 American Road, Morris Plains, New Jersey, 200 American Road, Morris Plains, New Jersey, 300 American Road, Morris Plains, New Jersey, 400 American Road, Morris Plains, New Jersey, and 500 American Road, Morris Plains, New Jersey.
7. Compliance with Law . It is expressly stipulated and agreed to be the intent of Maker and Payee at all times to comply with applicable state law or applicable United States federal law (to the extent that it permits Payee to contract for, charge, take, reserve or receive a greater amount of interest than under state law) and that this paragraph shall control every other covenant and agreement in this Note, the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents. If the applicable law (state or federal) is ever judicially interpreted so as to render usurious any amount called for under this Note or any of the other Loan Documents, or contracted for, charged, taken, reserved or received with respect to the Debt, or if Payees exercise of the option to accelerate the Maturity Date, or if any prepayment by Maker results in Makers having paid any interest in excess of that permitted by applicable law, then it is Payees express intent that all excess amounts theretofore collected by Payee shall be credited on the principal balance of this Note and all other Debt and the provisions of this Note, and the other Loan Documents immediately be deemed reformed and the amounts thereafter collectible hereunder and thereunder reduced, without the necessity of the execution of any new documents, so as to comply with the applicable law, but so as to permit the recovery of the fullest amount otherwise called for hereunder or thereunder. All sums paid or agreed to be paid to Payee for the use or forbearance of the Debt shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread throughout the full stated term of the Debt until payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of the Debt does not exceed the maximum lawful rate from time to time in effect and applicable to the Debt for so long as the Debt is outstanding. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or in any of the other Loan Documents, it is not the intention of Payee to accelerate the maturity of any interest that has not accrued at the time of such acceleration or to collect unearned interest at the time of such acceleration.
8. Amendments . This Note may not be modified, amended, waived, extended, changed, discharged or terminated orally or by any act or failure to act on the part of Maker or Payee, but only by an agreement in writing signed by the party against whom enforcement of any modification, amendment, waiver, extension, change, discharge or termination is sought.
9. Joint and Several Liability . If Maker consists of more than one person or party, the obligations and liabilities of each such person or party shall be joint and several.
10. Construction . Whenever used, the singular number shall include the plural, the plural the singular, and the words Payee and Maker shall include their respective successors, assigns, heirs, executors and administrators.
11. Waivers . Maker and all others who may become liable for the payment of all or any part of the Debt do hereby severally waive presentment and demand for payment, notice of dishonor, protest, notice of protest and non-payment and notice of intent to accelerate the maturity hereof (and of such acceleration). No release of any security for the Debt or extension of time for payment of this Note or any installment hereof and no alteration, amendment or waiver of any provision of this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or any other Loan Documents made by agreement between Payee and any other person or party shall release, modify, amend, waive, extend, change, discharge, terminate or affect the liability of Maker and any other who may become liable for the payment of all or any part of the Debt, under this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or any other Loan Documents.
12. Authority . Maker (and the undersigned representative of Maker, if any) represents that Maker has full power, authority and legal right to execute, deliver and perform its obligations pursuant to this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents and that this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents constitute valid and binding obligations of Maker.
13. Time . Time is of the essence of this Note.
14. Replacement Note . In the event of the loss, theft or destruction of this Note, upon Makers receipt of a reasonably satisfactory indemnification agreement executed in favor of Maker by Payee or in the event of the mutilation of this Note, upon the surrender of the mutilated Note by Payee to Maker, Maker shall execute and deliver to Payee a new mortgage note in form and content identical to this Note in lieu of the lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note.
15. Notice . All notices required to be given pursuant hereto shall be given in the manner specified in the Loan Agreement directed to the parties at their respective addresses as provided therein.
16. Costs and Expenses . Maker shall pay all expenses and costs, including fees and out-of-pocket expenses of attorneys and expert witnesses and costs of investigation incurred by Payee as a result of any Event of Default or in connection with efforts to collect any amount due under this Note or to enforce the provisions of any of the Loan Documents, including those incurred in post-judgment collection efforts and in any bankruptcy proceeding (including any action for relief from the automatic stay of any bankruptcy proceeding) or judicial or non-judicial foreclosure proceeding.
17. Forbearance . Any forbearance by Payee in exercising any right or remedy under this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or any other Loan Document or otherwise afforded by applicable law shall not be a waiver of or preclude the exercise of that or any other right or remedy. The acceptance by Payee of any payment after the due date of such payment or in an amount which is less than the required payment shall not be a waiver of Payees right to require prompt payment when due of all other payments or to exercise any right or remedy with respect to any failure to make prompt payment. Enforcement by Payee of any security for Makers obligations under this Note shall not constitute an election by Payee of remedies so as to preclude the exercise of any other right or remedy available to Payee.
18. Section Headings . The Section headings inserted in this Note have been included for convenience only and are not intended and shall not be construed to limit or define in any way the substance of any section contained herein.
19. Limitation on Liability .

1. Payment of Principal and Interest . Principal and interest shall be paid as follows:
(a) If the loan proceeds are not disbursed on the first day of a month, then interest only at the Applicable Interest Rate from and including the date of disbursement of the loan proceeds to the first day of the month following such disbursement shall be due and payable in advance on the date of such disbursement;
(b) Interest only is to be paid in installments as follows: $157,592.08 on the first day of April, 2008 and on the first day of each calendar month thereafter up to and including the first day of March, 2013;
(c) Principal and interest is to be paid in installments as follows: $187,125.48 on the first day of April, 2013, and on the first day of each calendar month thereafter up to and including the first day of February, 2018; and
(d) The outstanding principal balance and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon and all other sums and fees due under this Note shall be due and payable on the first day of March, 2018 (the Maturity Date ).
Interest on the principal balance of this Note shall be calculated on a monthly basis using, as the agreed method of calculation, a three hundred sixty (360) day year consisting of twelve (12) months of thirty (30) days each; provided , however , that interest for a period of less than a full month shall be calculated by multiplying the actual number of days elapsed during such partial month by a daily rate based upon a three hundred sixty-five day year and the interest rate then due under this Note.
The term Applicable Interest Rate as used in this Note shall mean from the date of disbursement of the loan proceeds through and including the Maturity Date, a rate of Six and Seventeen One-Hundredths Percent (6.17%) per annum.
If at any time Payee receives, from Maker or otherwise, any amount applicable to the Debt (hereinafter defined) which is less than all amounts due and payable at such time, Payee may apply that payment to amounts then due and payable in any manner and in any order determined by Payee, in Payees sole discretion. Payee shall, however, be under no obligation to accept any amount less than all amounts then due and payable. Maker agrees that neither Payees acceptance of a payment from Maker in an amount that is less than all amounts then due and payable nor Payees application of such payment shall constitute or be deemed to constitute either a waiver of the unpaid amounts or an accord and satisfaction. This provision shall control notwithstanding any inconsistent direction by Maker or any other obligor hereunder.
This Note is issued by Maker to Payee pursuant to a certain Loan Agreement by and among Maker and John Hancock of even date herewith (the Loan Agreement ) whereby John Hancock has agreed to make three (3) separate loans to Maker in the aggregate principal amount of $105,000,000.00. This Note evidences a portion of one of such loans, which loan is in the aggregate principal amount of $50,650,000.00 (the NY Loan ), as set forth in the Loan Agreement. Reference is hereby made to the Loan Agreement for a full statement of the rights of the holder of, and the nature and extent of the security for, this Note. The whole of the principal sum of this Note, together with all interest accrued and unpaid thereon and all other sums due under this Note, any other mortgage note evidencing any other portion of the NY Loan, and the Loan Agreement and any other instrument now or hereafter evidencing, securing, guaranteeing or executed in connection with the Loan Agreement or the indebtedness evidenced hereby (the Loan Documents ) (all such sums hereinafter collectively referred to as the Debt ) shall without notice become immediately due and payable at the option of Payee on the happening of an Event of Default as the same is defined in the Loan Agreement (hereinafter defined). All of the terms, covenants and conditions contained in the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents are hereby made part of this Note to the same extent and with the same force as if they were fully set forth herein. In the event of any conflict between the terms of the Note and the terms of the Loan Agreement, the Mortgages and other security instruments, the terms of this Note shall govern, except as specifically provided herein or in the Loan Agreement.
2. Prepayment . Except as provided below, Maker may not prepay the loan evidenced by this Note in whole or in part.
On or after the end of the fifth (5 th ) Loan Year (as hereinafter defined), on any scheduled payment date and subject to giving Payee not less than thirty (30) nor more than ninety (90) days prior written notice specifying the scheduled payment date on which prepayment is to be made (the Prepayment Date ), Maker may prepay the entire principal amount together with any and all accrued interest and other sums due under the Loan Documents, and subject to payment of a prepayment premium equal to the greater of:
(a) the positive amount, if any, equal to (i) the sum of the present values of all scheduled payments due under the Note from the Prepayment Date to and including the Maturity Date, minus (ii) the principal balance of the Note immediately prior to such prepayment; or
(b) 1.0% of the principal balance of the Note immediately prior to such prepayment.
All present values shall be calculated as of the Prepayment Date, using a discount rate, compounded monthly, equal to the yield rate plus twenty-five (25) basis points, converted to its monthly equivalent, of the United States Treasury Security having the closest maturity date to the Maturity Date of the Note as established in the Wall Street Journal or other business publication of general circulation five (5) business days before the Prepayment Date.
In the event that the yield rate on publicly traded United States Treasury Securities is not obtainable, then the nearest equivalent issue or index shall be selected, at Payees reasonable determination, and used to calculate the prepayment premium.
The loan evidenced by this Note will be open to prepayment without premium on any scheduled payment date during the last ninety (90) days of the term of this Note.
If any notice of prepayment is given, the principal balance of the loan evidenced by this Note and the other sums required pursuant to this Section 2 shall be due and payable on the Prepayment Date, unless Maker provides written notice to Payee that it is revoking said prepayment notice no later than five (5) business days prior to the Prepayment Date.
Provided no default exists under the Loan Documents, the above premium shall not be applicable to a prepayment resulting from Payees election to require insurance loss proceeds or condemnation awards to be applied to a payment of principal.
No partial prepayment shall be allowed.
The Loan Year is defined as any twelve month period commencing with the date on which the first monthly installment is due or any anniversary thereof.
3. Acceleration/Default . Maker acknowledges that the loan evidenced by this Note was made on the basis and assumption that Payee would receive the payments of principal and interest set forth herein for the full term of this Note. Therefore, whenever the Maturity Date of the loan evidenced by this Note has been accelerated by reason of an Event of Default under the Loan Documents, which Event of Default occurs prior to the time period, if any, in which prepayment is allowed and prior to the date on which the full amount of the balance of principal and interest then remaining unpaid shall be due, including an acceleration by reason of sale, conveyance, further encumbrance or other Event of Default (which acceleration shall be at Payees sole option), there shall be due, in addition to the outstanding principal balance, accrued interest and other sums due under the Loan Documents, a premium equal to the greater of:
(a) The sum obtained by adding:
(i) the positive amount, if any, equal to (aa) the sum of the present values of all scheduled payments due under this Note from the date of said payment to and including the Maturity Date of the Note, minus (bb) the then outstanding principal balance of the Note, and
(ii) 1.0 % of the then outstanding principal balance of the Note; or
(b) An amount equal to 10.0 % of the then outstanding principal balance of the Note.
All present values shall be calculated as of the date of said payment, using a discount rate, compounded monthly, equal to the yield rate, converted to its monthly equivalent, of the United States Treasury Security having the closest maturity date to the Maturity Date of the Note as established in the Wall Street Journal or other business publication of general circulation five (5) business days before the date of said payment. In the event that the yield rate on publicly traded United States Treasury Securities is not obtainable, then the nearest equivalent issue or index shall be selected, at Payees reasonable determination, and used to calculate the prepayment premium.
If an Event of Default occurs on or after the date on which prepayment is permitted, then in lieu of the above premium, payment of a premium calculated in the manner set forth in Section 2 hereof shall be required.
A tender of the amount necessary to satisfy the entire indebtedness, paid at any time following such Event of Default or acceleration, including at a foreclosure sale or during any subsequent redemption period, if any, shall be deemed a voluntary prepayment, and, at Payees option, such payment shall include a premium as described above.
4. Default Rate . Maker does hereby agree that upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and while any Event of Default exists, including, without limitation, the failure of Maker to pay the Debt in full on the Maturity Date, Payee shall be entitled to receive and Maker shall pay interest on the entire unpaid principal sum, effective from the date of Makers initial default with respect to such Event of Default without allowance for any applicable notice and/or grace period, at a rate (the Default Rate ) equal to seven percent (7%) above the Applicable Interest Rate, but in no event to exceed the highest rate permitted under the laws of the jurisdiction where the property secured by the Mortgage is situated. Notwithstanding the provisions of any statute or regulation to the contrary, the Default Rate shall apply to all sums evidenced hereby upon, during and after an Event of Default as provided herein, and also after entry of a judgment or judgments against Maker (whether in a mortgage foreclosure action or otherwise), and whether or not any event described in Paragraph 3.12 of the Loan Agreement hereof has occurred.
This charge shall be added to the Debt, and shall be deemed secured by the Mortgage. This clause, however, shall not be construed as an agreement or privilege to extend the date of the payment of the Debt, nor as a waiver of any other right or remedy available to Payee by reason of the occurrence of any Event of Default.
5. Late Charge . If any monthly principal and interest payment payable under this Note is not paid in full within five (5) days of the date on which it is due, Maker shall pay to Payee an amount equal to the lesser of five percent (5%) of such unpaid sum or the maximum amount permitted by applicable law to defray the expenses incurred by Payee in handling and processing such delinquent payment and to compensate Payee for the loss of the use of such delinquent payment and such amount shall be secured by the Loan Documents.
6. Security for Loan . This Note is secured by, among other things, the Mortgage and certain other Loan Documents as set forth in the Loan Agreement. The term Mortgage as used in this Note shall mean that certain Mortgage Deed, Assignment of Leases and Rents, Security Agreement and Fixture Filing dated the date hereof in the principal sum of the NY Loan given by Maker for the use and benefit of Payee covering certain premises located at 103 Fairview Park Drive, 412 Fairview Park Drive, 401 Fieldcrest Drive, 404 Fieldcrest Drive, 199 Ridgewood Drive, and 203 Ridgewood Drive in the Town of Greenburgh, and at 36 Midland Avenue, 100-110 Midland Avenue, 112 Midland Avenue, and 8 Slater Street in the Village of Port Chester, all in the County of Westchester and State of New York, as more particularly described therein.
7. Compliance with Law . It is expressly stipulated and agreed to be the intent of Maker and Payee at all times to comply with applicable state law or applicable United States federal law (to the extent that it permits Payee to contract for, charge, take, reserve or receive a greater amount of interest than under state law) and that this paragraph shall control every other covenant and agreement in this Note, the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents. If the applicable law (state or federal) is ever judicially interpreted so as to render usurious any amount called for under this Note or any of the other Loan Documents, or contracted for, charged, taken, reserved or received with respect to the Debt, or if Payees exercise of the option to accelerate the Maturity Date, or if any prepayment by Maker results in Makers having paid any interest in excess of that permitted by applicable law, then it is Payees express intent that all excess amounts theretofore collected by Payee shall be credited on the principal balance of this Note and all other Debt and the provisions of this Note, and the other Loan Documents immediately be deemed reformed and the amounts thereafter collectible hereunder and thereunder reduced, without the necessity of the execution of any new documents, so as to comply with the applicable law, but so as to permit the recovery of the fullest amount otherwise called for hereunder or thereunder. All sums paid or agreed to be paid to Payee for the use or forbearance of the Debt shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread throughout the full stated term of the Debt until payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of the Debt does not exceed the maximum lawful rate from time to time in effect and applicable to the Debt for so long as the Debt is outstanding. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or in any of the other Loan Documents, it is not the intention of Payee to accelerate the maturity of any interest that has not accrued at the time of such acceleration or to collect unearned interest at the time of such acceleration.
8. Amendments . This Note may not be modified, amended, waived, extended, changed, discharged or terminated orally or by any act or failure to act on the part of Maker or Payee, but only by an agreement in writing signed by the party against whom enforcement of any modification, amendment, waiver, extension, change, discharge or termination is sought.
9. Joint and Several Liability . If Maker consists of more than one person or party, the obligations and liabilities of each such person or party shall be joint and several.
10. Construction . Whenever used, the singular number shall include the plural, the plural the singular, and the words Payee and Maker shall include their respective successors, assigns, heirs, executors and administrators.
11. Waivers . Maker and all others who may become liable for the payment of all or any part of the Debt do hereby severally waive presentment and demand for payment, notice of dishonor, protest, notice of protest and non-payment and notice of intent to accelerate the maturity hereof (and of such acceleration). No release of any security for the Debt or extension of time for payment of this Note or any installment hereof and no alteration, amendment or waiver of any provision of this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or any other Loan Documents made by agreement between Payee and any other person or party shall release, modify, amend, waive, extend, change, discharge, terminate or affect the liability of Maker and any other who may become liable for the payment of all or any part of the Debt, under this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or any other Loan Documents.
12. Authority . Maker (and the undersigned representative of Maker, if any) represents that Maker has full power, authority and legal right to execute, deliver and perform its obligations pursuant to this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents and that this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents constitute valid and binding obligations of Maker.
13. Time . Time is of the essence of this Note.
14. Replacement Note . In the event of the loss, theft or destruction of this Note, upon Makers receipt of a reasonably satisfactory indemnification agreement executed in favor of Maker by Payee or in the event of the mutilation of this Note, upon the surrender of the mutilated Note by Payee to Maker, Maker shall execute and deliver to Payee a new mortgage note in form and content identical to this Note in lieu of the lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note.
15. Notice . All notices required to be given pursuant hereto shall be given in the manner specified in the Loan Agreement directed to the parties at their respective addresses as provided therein.
16. Costs and Expenses . Maker shall pay all expenses and costs, including fees and out-of-pocket expenses of attorneys and expert witnesses and costs of investigation incurred by Payee as a result of any Event of Default or in connection with efforts to collect any amount due under this Note or to enforce the provisions of any of the Loan Documents, including those incurred in post-judgment collection efforts and in any bankruptcy proceeding (including any action for relief from the automatic stay of any bankruptcy proceeding) or judicial or non-judicial foreclosure proceeding.
17. Forbearance . Any forbearance by Payee in exercising any right or remedy under this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or any other Loan Document or otherwise afforded by applicable law shall not be a waiver of or preclude the exercise of that or any other right or remedy. The acceptance by Payee of any payment after the due date of such payment or in an amount which is less than the required payment shall not be a waiver of Payees right to require prompt payment when due of all other payments or to exercise any right or remedy with respect to any failure to make prompt payment. Enforcement by Payee of any security for Makers obligations under this Note shall not constitute an election by Payee of remedies so as to preclude the exercise of any other right or remedy available to Payee.
18. Section Headings . The Section headings inserted in this Note have been included for convenience only and are not intended and shall not be construed to limit or define in any way the substance of any section contained herein.
19. Limitation on Liability . Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, but subject to the obligations of Section 6.6 of the Loan Agreement, any claim based on or in respect of any liability of Maker under this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or any other Loan Document shall be enforced only against the Mortgaged Property (as such term is defined in the Mortgage) and any other collateral now or hereafter given to secure this Note and not against any other assets, properties or funds of Maker; provided , however , that the liability of Maker for loss, costs or damage arising out of the matters described in the subsections below (collectively, Non-Recourse Carveout Obligations ) shall not be limited solely to the Mortgaged Property and other collateral now or hereafter given to secure this Note but shall include all of the assets, properties and funds of Maker: (i) fraud, misrepresentation and waste; (ii) any rents, issues or profits collected more than one (1) month in advance of their due dates; (iii) any misapplication of rents, issues or profits, security deposits and any other payments from tenants or occupants (including, without limitation, lease termination fees), insurance proceeds, condemnation awards or other sums of a similar nature; (iv) liability under environmental covenants, conditions and indemnities contained in the Loan Agreement, including, without limitation, Section 3.9, the Mortgage and in any separate environmental indemnity agreements; (v) personalty or fixtures removed or allowed to be removed by or on behalf of Maker and not replaced by items of equal or greater value or functionality than the personalty or fixtures so removed; (vi) failure to pay taxes, assessments or ground rents prior to delinquency, or to pay charges for labor, materials or other charges which can create liens on any portion of the Mortgaged Property before such charges become a lien on such Mortgaged Property or any portion thereof and any sums expended by Payee in the performance of or compliance with the obligations of Maker under the Loan Documents, including, without limitation, sums expended to pay taxes or assessments or hazard insurance premiums or bills for utilities or other services or products for the benefit of the Mortgaged Property; (vii) the unauthorized sale, conveyance or transfer of title to the Mortgaged Property or encumbrance of the Mortgaged Property; (viii) the failure of Maker to maintain its status as a single purpose, bankruptcy-remote entity pursuant to its organizational documents and the Loan Documents; (ix) a violation of the provisions of Section 3.7(h) of the Loan Agreement; (x) the filing of any action to partition the Mortgaged Property or any Individual Property (as defined in the Loan Agreement) or the occurrence of any such partition or any sale pursuant to any such action; (xi) the transfer of any TIC (as defined in the Loan Agreement) interests in any of the Mortgaged Property or any Individual Property, or any direct or indirect interests in the holder of any such TIC interest, other than as expressly permitted under Section 3.4(h) of the Loan Agreement; (xii) the termination, cancellation or non-renewal of an Approved Manager (as defined in the Loan Agreement) or any other failure of an Approved Manager to serve as manager of any Permitted TIC (as defined in the Loan Agreement); (xiii) the failure of any Approved Manager to meet the Management Requirements (as defined in the Loan Agreement); and (xiv) attorneys fees, court costs and other expenses incurred by Payee in connection with enforcement of its remedies under the Loan Documents, including, but not limited to, in connection with any bankruptcy proceeding or reorganization brought by or against Maker or any Principal (as defined in the Loan Agreement) of Maker.
Nothing herein shall be deemed (w) to be a waiver of any right which Payee may have under any bankruptcy law of the United States or the state where the Mortgaged Property is located including, but not limited to, Section 506(a), 506(b), 1111(b) or any other provisions of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code to file a claim for the full amount of the indebtedness secured by the Mortgage or to require that all collateral securing the indebtedness secured hereby shall continue to secure all of the indebtedness owing to Payee in accordance with this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents; (x) to impair the validity of the indebtedness secured by the Mortgage; (y) to impair the right of Payee as mortgagee or secured party to commence an action to foreclose any lien or security interest; or (z) to modify, diminish or discharge the liability of any guarantor under any guaranty or of any indemnitor under any indemnity agreement.

1. Payment of Principal and Interest . Principal and interest shall be paid as follows:
(a) If the loan proceeds are not disbursed on the first day of a month, then interest only at the Applicable Interest Rate from and including the date of disbursement of the loan proceeds to the first day of the month following such disbursement shall be due and payable in advance on the date of such disbursement;
(b) Interest only is to be paid in installments as follows: $72,986.67 on the first day of April, 2008 and on the first day of each calendar month thereafter up to and including the first day of February, 2013; and
(c) The outstanding principal balance and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon and all other sums and fees due under this Note shall be due and payable on the first day of March, 2013 (the Maturity Date ).
Interest on the principal balance of this Note shall be calculated on a monthly basis using, as the agreed method of calculation, a three hundred sixty (360) day year consisting of twelve (12) months of thirty (30) days each; provided , however , that interest for a period of less than a full month shall be calculated by multiplying the actual number of days elapsed during such partial month by a daily rate based upon a three hundred sixty-five day year and the interest rate then due under this Note.
The term Applicable Interest Rate as used in this Note shall mean from the date of disbursement of the loan proceeds through and including the Maturity Date, a rate of Five and Forty-Four One-Hundredths Percent (5.44%) per annum.
If at any time Payee receives, from Maker or otherwise, any amount applicable to the Debt (hereinafter defined) which is less than all amounts due and payable at such time, Payee may apply that payment to amounts then due and payable in any manner and in any order determined by Payee, in Payees sole discretion. Payee shall, however, be under no obligation to accept any amount less than all amounts then due and payable. Maker agrees that neither Payees acceptance of a payment from Maker in an amount that is less than all amounts then due and payable nor Payees application of such payment shall constitute or be deemed to constitute either a waiver of the unpaid amounts or an accord and satisfaction. This provision shall control notwithstanding any inconsistent direction by Maker or any other obligor hereunder.
This Note is issued by Maker to Payee pursuant to a certain Loan Agreement by and among Maker and John Hancock of even date herewith (the Loan Agreement ) whereby John Hancock has agreed to make three (3) separate loans to Maker in the aggregate principal amount of $105,000,000.00. This Note evidences a portion of one of such loans, which loan is in the aggregate principal amount of $50,650,000.00 (the NY Loan ), as set forth in the Loan Agreement. Reference is hereby made to the Loan Agreement for a full statement of the rights of the holder of, and the nature and extent of the security for, this Note. The whole of the principal sum of this Note, together with all interest accrued and unpaid thereon and all other sums due under this Note, any other mortgage note evidencing any other portion of the NY Loan, and the Loan Agreement and any other instrument now or hereafter evidencing, securing, guaranteeing or executed in connection with the Loan Agreement or the indebtedness evidenced hereby (the Loan Documents ) (all such sums hereinafter collectively referred to as the Debt ) shall without notice become immediately due and payable at the option of Payee on the happening of an Event of Default as the same is defined in the Loan Agreement (hereinafter defined). All of the terms, covenants and conditions contained in the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents are hereby made part of this Note to the same extent and with the same force as if they were fully set forth herein. In the event of any conflict between the terms of the Note and the terms of the Loan Agreement, the Mortgages and other security instruments, the terms of this Note shall govern, except as specifically provided herein or in the Loan Agreement.
2. Prepayment . Except as provided below, Maker may not prepay the loan evidenced by this Note in whole or in part.
On or after the end of the third (3 rd ) Loan Year (as hereinafter defined), on any scheduled payment date and subject to giving Payee not less than thirty (30) nor more than ninety (90) days prior written notice specifying the scheduled payment date on which prepayment is to be made (the Prepayment Date ), Maker may prepay the entire principal amount together with any and all accrued interest and other sums due under the Loan Documents, and subject to payment of a prepayment premium equal to the greater of:
(a) the positive amount, if any, equal to (i) the sum of the present values of all scheduled payments due under the Note from the Prepayment Date to and including the Maturity Date, minus (ii) the principal balance of the Note immediately prior to such prepayment; or
(b) 1.0% of the principal balance of the Note immediately prior to such prepayment.
All present values shall be calculated as of the Prepayment Date, using a discount rate, compounded monthly, equal to the yield rate plus twenty-five (25) basis points, converted to its monthly equivalent, of the United States Treasury Security having the closest maturity date to the Maturity Date of the Note as established in the Wall Street Journal or other business publication of general circulation five (5) business days before the Prepayment Date.
In the event that the yield rate on publicly traded United States Treasury Securities is not obtainable, then the nearest equivalent issue or index shall be selected, at Payees reasonable determination, and used to calculate the prepayment premium.
The loan evidenced by this Note will be open to prepayment without premium on any scheduled payment date during the last ninety (90) days of the term of this Note.
If any notice of prepayment is given, the principal balance of the loan evidenced by this Note and the other sums required pursuant to this Section 2 shall be due and payable on the Prepayment Date, unless Maker provides written notice to Payee that it is revoking said prepayment notice no later than five (5) business days prior to the Prepayment Date.
Provided no default exists under the Loan Documents, the above premium shall not be applicable to a prepayment resulting from Payees election to require insurance loss proceeds or condemnation awards to be applied to a payment of principal.
No partial prepayment shall be allowed.
The Loan Year is defined as any twelve month period commencing with the date on which the first monthly installment is due or any anniversary thereof.
3. Acceleration/Default . Maker acknowledges that the loan evidenced by this Note was made on the basis and assumption that Payee would receive the payments of principal and interest set forth herein for the full term of this Note. Therefore, whenever the Maturity Date of the loan evidenced by this Note has been accelerated by reason of an Event of Default under the Loan Documents, which Event of Default occurs prior to the time period, if any, in which prepayment is allowed and prior to the date on which the full amount of the balance of principal and interest then remaining unpaid shall be due, including an acceleration by reason of sale, conveyance, further encumbrance or other Event of Default (which acceleration shall be at Payees sole option), there shall be due, in addition to the outstanding principal balance, accrued interest and other sums due under the Loan Documents, a premium equal to the greater of:
(a) The sum obtained by adding:
(i) the positive amount, if any, equal to (aa) the sum of the present values of all scheduled payments due under this Note from the date of said payment to and including the Maturity Date of the Note, minus (bb) the then outstanding principal balance of the Note, and
(ii) 1.0 % of the then outstanding principal balance of the Note; or
(b) An amount equal to 10.0 % of the then outstanding principal balance of the Note.
All present values shall be calculated as of the date of said payment, using a discount rate, compounded monthly, equal to the yield rate, converted to its monthly equivalent, of the United States Treasury Security having the closest maturity date to the Maturity Date of the Note as established in the Wall Street Journal or other business publication of general circulation five (5) business days before the date of said payment. In the event that the yield rate on publicly traded United States Treasury Securities is not obtainable, then the nearest equivalent issue or index shall be selected, at Payees reasonable determination, and used to calculate the prepayment premium.
If an Event of Default occurs on or after the date on which prepayment is permitted, then in lieu of the above premium, payment of a premium calculated in the manner set forth in Section 2 hereof shall be required.
A tender of the amount necessary to satisfy the entire indebtedness, paid at any time following such Event of Default or acceleration, including at a foreclosure sale or during any subsequent redemption period, if any, shall be deemed a voluntary prepayment, and, at Payees option, such payment shall include a premium as described above.
4. Default Rate . Maker does hereby agree that upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and while any Event of Default exists, including, without limitation, the failure of Maker to pay the Debt in full on the Maturity Date, Payee shall be entitled to receive and Maker shall pay interest on the entire unpaid principal sum, effective from the date of Makers initial default with respect to such Event of Default without allowance for any applicable notice and/or grace period, at a rate (the Default Rate ) equal to seven percent (7%) above the Applicable Interest Rate, but in no event to exceed the highest rate permitted under the laws of the jurisdiction where the property secured by the Mortgage is situated. Notwithstanding the provisions of any statute or regulation to the contrary, the Default Rate shall apply to all sums evidenced hereby upon, during and after an Event of Default as provided herein, and also after entry of a judgment or judgments against Maker (whether in a mortgage foreclosure action or otherwise), and whether or not any event described in Paragraph 3.12 of the Loan Agreement hereof has occurred. This charge shall be added to the Debt, and shall be deemed secured by the Mortgage. This clause, however, shall not be construed as an agreement or privilege to extend the date of the payment of the Debt, nor as a waiver of any other right or remedy available to Payee by reason of the occurrence of any Event of Default.
5. Late Charge . If any monthly principal and interest payment payable under this Note is not paid in full within five (5) days of the date on which it is due, Maker shall pay to Payee an amount equal to the lesser of five percent (5%) of such unpaid sum or the maximum amount permitted by applicable law to defray the expenses incurred by Payee in handling and processing such delinquent payment and to compensate Payee for the loss of the use of such delinquent payment and such amount shall be secured by the Loan Documents.
6. Amendment and Restatement; Security for Loan . This Note is secured by, among other things, the Mortgage and certain other Loan Documents as set forth in the Loan Agreement. The term Mortgage as used in this Note shall mean that certain Mortgage Deed, Assignment of Leases and Rents, Security Agreement and Fixture Filing dated the date hereof in the principal sum of the NY Loan given by Maker for the use and benefit of Payee covering certain premises located at 103 Fairview Park Drive, 412 Fairview Park Drive, 401 Fieldcrest Drive, 404 Fieldcrest Drive, 199 Ridgewood Drive, and 203 Ridgewood Drive in the Town of Greenburgh, and at 36 Midland Avenue, 100-110 Midland Avenue, 112 Midland Avenue, and 8 Slater Street in the Village of Port Chester, all in the County of Westchester and State of New York, as more particularly described therein.
7. Compliance with Law . It is expressly stipulated and agreed to be the intent of Maker and Payee at all times to comply with applicable state law or applicable United States federal law (to the extent that it permits Payee to contract for, charge, take, reserve or receive a greater amount of interest than under state law) and that this paragraph shall control every other covenant and agreement in this Note, the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents. If the applicable law (state or federal) is ever judicially interpreted so as to render usurious any amount called for under this Note or any of the other Loan Documents, or contracted for, charged, taken, reserved or received with respect to the Debt, or if Payees exercise of the option to accelerate the Maturity Date, or if any prepayment by Maker results in Makers having paid any interest in excess of that permitted by applicable law, then it is Payees express intent that all excess amounts theretofore collected by Payee shall be credited on the principal balance of this Note and all other Debt and the provisions of this Note, and the other Loan Documents immediately be deemed reformed and the amounts thereafter collectible hereunder and thereunder reduced, without the necessity of the execution of any new documents, so as to comply with the applicable law, but so as to permit the recovery of the fullest amount otherwise called for hereunder or thereunder. All sums paid or agreed to be paid to Payee for the use or forbearance of the Debt shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread throughout the full stated term of the Debt until payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of the Debt does not exceed the maximum lawful rate from time to time in effect and applicable to the Debt for so long as the Debt is outstanding. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or in any of the other Loan Documents, it is not the intention of Payee to accelerate the maturity of any interest that has not accrued at the time of such acceleration or to collect unearned interest at the time of such acceleration.
8. Amendments . This Note may not be modified, amended, waived, extended, changed, discharged or terminated orally or by any act or failure to act on the part of Maker or Payee, but only by an agreement in writing signed by the party against whom enforcement of any modification, amendment, waiver, extension, change, discharge or termination is sought.
9. Joint and Several Liability . If Maker consists of more than one person or party, the obligations and liabilities of each such person or party shall be joint and several.
10. Construction . Whenever used, the singular number shall include the plural, the plural the singular, and the words Payee and Maker shall include their respective successors, assigns, heirs, executors and administrators.
11. Waivers . Maker and all others who may become liable for the payment of all or any part of the Debt do hereby severally waive presentment and demand for payment, notice of dishonor, protest, notice of protest and non-payment and notice of intent to accelerate the maturity hereof (and of such acceleration). No release of any security for the Debt or extension of time for payment of this Note or any installment hereof and no alteration, amendment or waiver of any provision of this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or any other Loan Documents made by agreement between Payee and any other person or party shall release, modify, amend, waive, extend, change, discharge, terminate or affect the liability of Maker and any other who may become liable for the payment of all or any part of the Debt, under this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or any other Loan Documents.
12. Authority . Maker (and the undersigned representative of Maker, if any) represents that Maker has full power, authority and legal right to execute, deliver and perform its obligations pursuant to this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents and that this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents constitute valid and binding obligations of Maker.
13. Time . Time is of the essence of this Note.
14. Replacement Note . In the event of the loss, theft or destruction of this Note, upon Makers receipt of a reasonably satisfactory indemnification agreement executed in favor of Maker by Payee or in the event of the mutilation of this Note, upon the surrender of the mutilated Note by Payee to Maker, Maker shall execute and deliver to Payee a new mortgage note in form and content identical to this Note in lieu of the lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note.
15. Notice. All notices required to be given pursuant hereto shall be given in the manner specified in the Loan Agreement directed to the parties at their respective addresses as provided therein.
16. Costs and Expenses . Maker shall pay all expenses and costs, including fees and out-of-pocket expenses of attorneys and expert witnesses and costs of investigation incurred by Payee as a result of any Event of Default or in connection with efforts to collect any amount due under this Note or to enforce the provisions of any of the Loan Documents, including those incurred in post-judgment collection efforts and in any bankruptcy proceeding (including any action for relief from the automatic stay of any bankruptcy proceeding) or judicial or non-judicial foreclosure proceeding.
17. Forbearance . Any forbearance by Payee in exercising any right or remedy under this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or any other Loan Document or otherwise afforded by applicable law shall not be a waiver of or preclude the exercise of that or any other right or remedy. The acceptance by Payee of any payment after the due date of such payment or in an amount which is less than the required payment shall not be a waiver of Payees right to require prompt payment when due of all other payments or to exercise any right or remedy with respect to any failure to make prompt payment. Enforcement by Payee of any security for Makers obligations under this Note shall not constitute an election by Payee of remedies so as to preclude the exercise of any other right or remedy available to Payee.
18. Section Headings . The Section headings inserted in this Note have been included for convenience only and are not intended and shall not be construed to limit or define in any way the substance of any section contained herein.
19. Limitation on Liability . Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, but subject to the obligations of Section 6.6 of the Loan Agreement, any claim based on or in respect of any liability of Maker under this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or any other Loan Document shall be enforced only against the Mortgaged Property (as such term is defined in the Mortgage) and any other collateral now or hereafter given to secure this Note and not against any other assets, properties or funds of Maker; provided , however , that the liability of Maker for loss, costs or damage arising out of the matters described in the subsections below (collectively, Non-Recourse Carveout Obligations ) shall not be limited solely to the Mortgaged Property and other collateral now or hereafter given to secure this Note but shall include all of the assets, properties and funds of Maker: (i) fraud, misrepresentation and waste; (ii) any rents, issues or profits collected more than one (1) month in advance of their due dates; (iii) any misapplication of rents, issues or profits, security deposits and any other payments from tenants or occupants (including, without limitation, lease termination fees), insurance proceeds, condemnation awards or other sums of a similar nature; (iv) liability under environmental covenants, conditions and indemnities contained in the Loan Agreement, including, without limitation, Section 3.9, the Mortgage and in any separate environmental indemnity agreements; (v) personalty or fixtures removed or allowed to be removed by or on behalf of Maker and not replaced by items of equal or greater value or functionality than the personalty or fixtures so removed; (vi) failure to pay taxes, assessments or ground rents prior to delinquency, or to pay charges for labor, materials or other charges which can create liens on any portion of the Mortgaged Property before such charges become a lien on such Mortgaged Property or any portion thereof and any sums expended by Payee in the performance of or compliance with the obligations of Maker under the Loan Documents, including, without limitation, sums expended to pay taxes or assessments or hazard insurance premiums or bills for utilities or other services or products for the benefit of the Mortgaged Property; (vii) the unauthorized sale, conveyance or transfer of title to the Mortgaged Property or encumbrance of the Mortgaged Property; (viii) the failure of Maker to maintain its status as a single purpose , bankruptcy-remote entity pursuant to its organizational documents and the Loan Documents; (ix) a violation of the provisions of Section 3.7(h) of the Loan Agreement; (x) the filing of any action to partition the Mortgaged Property or any Individual Property (as defined in the Loan Agreement) or the occurrence of any such partition or any sale pursuant to any such action; (xi) the transfer of any TIC (as defined in the Loan Agreement) interests in any of the Mortgaged Property or any Individual Property, or any direct or indirect interests in the holder of any such TIC interest, other than as expressly permitted under Section 3.4(h) of the Loan Agreement; (xii) the termination, cancellation or non-renewal of an Approved Manager (as defined in the Loan Agreement) or any other failure of an Approved Manager to serve as manager of any Permitted TIC (as defined in the Loan Agreement); (xiii) the failure of any Approved Manager to meet the Management Requirements (as defined in the Loan Agreement); and (xiv) attorneys fees, court costs and other expenses incurred by Payee in connection with enforcement of its remedies under the Loan Documents, including, but not limited to, in connection with any bankruptcy proceeding or reorganization brought by or against Maker or any Principal (as defined in the Loan Agreement) of Maker.
Nothing herein shall be deemed (w) to be a waiver of any right which Payee may have under any bankruptcy law of the United States or the state where the Mortgaged Property is located including, but not limited to, Section 506(a), 506(b), 1111(b) or any other provisions of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code to file a claim for the full amount of the indebtedness secured by the Mortgage or to require that all collateral securing the indebtedness secured hereby shall continue to secure all of the indebtedness owing to Payee in accordance with this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents; (x) to impair the validity of the indebtedness secured by the Mortgage; (y) to impair the right of Payee as mortgagee or secured party to commence an action to foreclose any lien or security interest; or (z) to modify, diminish or discharge the liability of any guarantor under any guaranty or of any indemnitor under any indemnity agreement.

1. Payment of Principal and Interest . Principal and interest shall be paid as follows:
(a) If the loan proceeds are not disbursed on the first day of a month, then interest only at the Applicable Interest Rate from and including the date of disbursement of the loan proceeds to the first day of the month following such disbursement shall be due and payable in advance on the date of such disbursement;
(b) Interest only is to be paid in installments as follows: $16,640.00 on the first day of April, 2008 and on the first day of each calendar month thereafter up to and including the first day of February, 2011; and
(c) The outstanding principal balance and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon and all other sums and fees due under this Note shall be due and payable on the first day of March, 2011 (the Maturity Date ).
Interest on the principal balance of this Note shall be calculated on a monthly basis using, as the agreed method of calculation, a three hundred sixty (360) day year consisting of twelve (12) months of thirty (30) days each; provided , however, that interest for a period of less than a full month shall be calculated by multiplying the actual number of days elapsed during such partial month by a daily rate based upon a three hundred sixty-five day year and the interest rate then due under this Note.
The term Applicable Interest Rate as used in this Note shall mean from the date of disbursement of the loan proceeds through and including the Maturity Date, a rate of Five and Twelve One-Hundredths Percent (5.12%) per annum.
If at any time Payee receives, from Maker or otherwise, any amount applicable to the Debt (hereinafter defined) which is less than all amounts due and payable at such time, Payee may apply that payment to amounts then due and payable in any manner and in any order determined by Payee, in Payees sole discretion. Payee shall, however, be under no obligation to accept any amount less than all amounts then due and payable. Maker agrees that neither Payees acceptance of a payment from Maker in an amount that is less than all amounts then due and payable nor Payees application of such payment shall constitute or be deemed to constitute either a waiver of the unpaid amounts or an accord and satisfaction. This provision shall control notwithstanding any inconsistent direction by Maker or any other obligor hereunder.
This Note is issued by Maker to Payee pursuant to a certain Loan Agreement by and among Maker and John Hancock of even date herewith (the Loan Agreement ) whereby John Hancock has agreed to make three (3) separate loans to Maker in the aggregate principal amount of $105,000,000.00. This Note evidences a portion of one of such loans, which loan is in the aggregate principal amount of $50,650,000.00 (the NY Loan ), as set forth in the Loan Agreement. Reference is hereby made to the Loan Agreement for a full statement of the rights of the holder of, and the nature and extent of the security for, this Note. The whole of the principal sum of this Note, together with all interest accrued and unpaid thereon and all other sums due under this Note, any other mortgage note evidencing any other portion of the NY Loan, and the Loan Agreement and any other instrument now or hereafter evidencing, securing, guaranteeing or executed in connection with the Loan Agreement or the indebtedness evidenced hereby (the Loan Documents ) (all such sums hereinafter collectively referred to as the Debt ) shall without notice become immediately due and payable at the option of Payee on the happening of an Event of Default as the same is defined in the Loan Agreement (hereinafter defined). All of the terms, covenants and conditions contained in the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents are hereby made part of this Note to the same extent and with the same force as if they were fully set forth herein. In the event of any conflict between the terms of the Note and the terms of the Loan Agreement, the Mortgages and other security instruments, the terms of this Note shall govern, except as specifically provided herein or in the Loan Agreement.
2. Prepayment . Except as provided below, Maker may not prepay the loan evidenced by this Note in whole or in part.
On or after the end of the first 1.5 Loan Years (as hereinafter defined), on any scheduled payment date and subject to giving Payee not less than thirty (30) nor more than ninety (90) days prior written notice specifying the scheduled payment date on which prepayment is to be made (the Prepayment Date ), Maker may prepay the entire principal amount together with any and all accrued interest and other sums due under the Loan Documents, and subject to payment of a prepayment premium equal to the greater of:
(a) the positive amount, if any, equal to (i) the sum of the present values of all scheduled payments due under the Note from the Prepayment Date to and including the Maturity Date, minus (ii) the principal balance of the Note immediately prior to such prepayment; or
(b) 1.0% of the principal balance of the Note immediately prior to such prepayment.
All present values shall be calculated as of the Prepayment Date, using a discount rate, compounded monthly, equal to the yield rate plus twenty-five (25) basis points, converted to its monthly equivalent, of the United States Treasury Security having the closest maturity date to the Maturity Date of the Note as established in the Wall Street Journal or other business publication of general circulation five (5) business days before the Prepayment Date.
In the event that the yield rate on publicly traded United States Treasury Securities is not obtainable, then the nearest equivalent issue or index shall be selected, at Payees reasonable determination, and used to calculate the prepayment premium.
The loan evidenced by this Note will be open to prepayment without premium on any scheduled payment date during the last ninety (90) days of the term of this Note.
If any notice of prepayment is given, the principal balance of the loan evidenced by this Note and the other sums required pursuant to this Section 2 shall be due and payable on the Prepayment Date, unless Maker provides written notice to Payee that it is revoking said prepayment notice no later than five (5) business days prior to the Prepayment Date.
Provided no default exists under the Loan Documents, the above premium shall not be applicable to a prepayment resulting from Payees election to require insurance loss proceeds or condemnation awards to be applied to a payment of principal.
No partial prepayment shall be allowed.
The Loan Year is defined as any twelve month period commencing with the date on which the first monthly installment is due or any anniversary thereof.
3. Acceleration/Default . Maker acknowledges that the loan evidenced by this Note was made on the basis and assumption that Payee would receive the payments of principal and interest set forth herein for the full term of this Note. Therefore, whenever the Maturity Date of the loan evidenced by this Note has been accelerated by reason of an Event of Default under the Loan Documents, which Event of Default occurs prior to the time period, if any, in which prepayment is allowed and prior to the date on which the full amount of the balance of principal and interest then remaining unpaid shall be due, including an acceleration by reason of sale, conveyance, further encumbrance or other Event of Default (which acceleration shall be at Payees sole option), there shall be due, in addition to the outstanding principal balance, accrued interest and other sums due under the Loan Documents, a premium equal to the greater of:
(a) The sum obtained by adding:
(i) the positive amount, if any, equal to (aa) the sum of the present values of all scheduled payments due under this Note from the date of said payment to and including the Maturity Date of the Note, minus (bb) the then outstanding principal balance of the Note, and
(ii) 1.0 % of the then outstanding principal balance of the Note; or
(b) An amount equal to 10.0 % of the then outstanding principal balance of the Note.
All present values shall be calculated as of the date of said payment, using a discount rate, compounded monthly, equal to the yield rate, converted to its monthly equivalent, of the United States Treasury Security having the closest maturity date to the Maturity Date of the Note as established in the Wall Street Journal or other business publication of general circulation five (5) business days before the date of said payment. In the event that the yield rate on publicly traded United States Treasury Securities is not obtainable, then the nearest equivalent issue or index shall be selected, at Payees reasonable determination, and used to calculate the prepayment premium.
If an Event of Default occurs on or after the date on which prepayment is permitted, then in lieu of the above premium, payment of a premium calculated in the manner set forth in Section 2 hereof shall be required.
A tender of the amount necessary to satisfy the entire indebtedness, paid at any time following such Event of Default or acceleration, including at a foreclosure sale or during any subsequent redemption period, if any, shall be deemed a voluntary prepayment, and, at Payees option, such payment shall include a premium as described above.
4. Default Rate . Maker does hereby agree that upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and while any Event of Default exists, including, without limitation, the failure of Maker to pay the Debt in full on the Maturity Date, Payee shall be entitled to receive and Maker shall pay interest on the entire unpaid principal sum, effective from the date of Makers initial default with respect to such Event of Default without allowance for any applicable notice and/or grace period, at a rate (the Default Rate ) equal to seven percent (7%) above the Applicable Interest Rate, but in no event to exceed the highest rate permitted under the laws of the jurisdiction where the property secured by the Mortgage is situated. Notwithstanding the provisions of any statute or regulation to the contrary, the Default Rate shall apply to all sums evidenced hereby upon, during and after an Event of Default as provided herein, and also after entry of a judgment or judgments against Maker (whether in a mortgage foreclosure action or otherwise), and whether or not any event described in Paragraph 3.12 of the Loan Agreement hereof has occurred. This charge shall be added to the Debt, and shall be deemed secured by the Mortgage. This clause, however, shall not be construed as an agreement or privilege to extend the date of the payment of the Debt, nor as a waiver of any other right or remedy available to Payee by reason of the occurrence of any Event of Default.
5. Late Charge . If any monthly principal and interest payment payable under this Note is not paid in full within five (5) days of the date on which it is due, Maker shall pay to Payee an amount equal to the lesser of five percent (5%) of such unpaid sum or the maximum amount permitted by applicable law to defray the expenses incurred by Payee in handling and processing such delinquent payment and to compensate Payee for the loss of the use of such delinquent payment and such amount shall be secured by the Loan Documents.
6. Amendment and Restatement; Security for Loan . This Note is secured by, among other things, the Mortgage and certain other Loan Documents as set forth in the Loan Agreement. The term Mortgage as used in this Note shall mean that certain Mortgage Deed, Assignment of Leases and Rents, Security Agreement and Fixture Filing dated the date hereof in the principal sum of the NY Loan given by Maker for the use and benefit of Payee covering certain premises located 103 Fairview Park Drive, 412 Fairview Park Drive, 401 Fieldcrest Drive, 404 Fieldcrest Drive, 199 Ridgewood Drive, and 203 Ridgewood Drive in the Town of Greenburgh, and at 36 Midland Avenue, 100-110 Midland Avenue, 112 Midland Avenue, and 8 Slater Street in the Village of Port Chester, all in the County of Westchester and State of New York, as more particularly described therein.
7. Compliance with Law . It is expressly stipulated and agreed to be the intent of Maker and Payee at all times to comply with applicable state law or applicable United States federal law (to the extent that it permits Payee to contract for, charge, take, reserve or receive a greater amount of interest than under state law) and that this paragraph shall control every other covenant and agreement in this Note, the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents. If the applicable law (state or federal) is ever judicially interpreted so as to render usurious any amount called for under this Note or any of the other Loan Documents, or contracted for, charged, taken, reserved or received with respect to the Debt, or if Payees exercise of the option to accelerate the Maturity Date, or if any prepayment by Maker results in Makers having paid any interest in excess of that permitted by applicable law, then it is Payees express intent that all excess amounts theretofore collected by Payee shall be credited on the principal balance of this Note and all other Debt and the provisions of this Note, and the other Loan Documents immediately be deemed reformed and the amounts thereafter collectible hereunder and thereunder reduced, without the necessity of the execution of any new documents, so as to comply with the applicable law, but so as to permit the recovery of the fullest amount otherwise called for hereunder or thereunder. All sums paid or agreed to be paid to Payee for the use or forbearance of the Debt shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread throughout the full stated term of the Debt until payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of the Debt does not exceed the maximum lawful rate from time to time in effect and applicable to the Debt for so long as the Debt is outstanding. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or in any of the other Loan Documents, it is not the intention of Payee to accelerate the maturity of any interest that has not accrued at the time of such acceleration or to collect unearned interest at the time of such acceleration.
8. Amendments . This Note may not be modified, amended, waived, extended, changed, discharged or terminated orally or by any act or failure to act on the part of Maker or Payee, but only by an agreement in writing signed by the party against whom enforcement of any modification, amendment, waiver, extension, change, discharge or termination is sought.
9. Joint and Several Liability . If Maker consists of more than one person or party, the obligations and liabilities of each such person or party shall be joint and several.
10. Construction . Whenever used, the singular number shall include the plural, the plural the singular, and the words Payee and Maker shall include their respective successors, assigns, heirs, executors and administrators.
11. Waivers . Maker and all others who may become liable for the payment of all or any part of the Debt do hereby severally waive presentment and demand for payment, notice of dishonor, protest, notice of protest and non-payment and notice of intent to accelerate the maturity hereof (and of such acceleration). No release of any security for the Debt or extension of time for payment of this Note or any installment hereof and no alteration, amendment or waiver of any provision of this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or any other Loan Documents made by agreement between Payee and any other person or party shall release, modify, amend, waive, extend, change, discharge, terminate or affect the liability of Maker and any other who may become liable for the payment of all or any part of the Debt, under this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or any other Loan Documents.
12. Authority . Maker (and the undersigned representative of Maker, if any) represents that Maker has full power, authority and legal right to execute, deliver and perform its obligations pursuant to this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents and that this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents constitute valid and binding obligations of Maker.
13. Time . Time is of the essence of this Note.
14. Replacement Note . In the event of the loss, theft or destruction of this Note, upon Makers receipt of a reasonably satisfactory indemnification agreement executed in favor of Maker by Payee or in the event of the mutilation of this Note, upon the surrender of the mutilated Note by Payee to Maker, Maker shall execute and deliver to Payee a new mortgage note in form and content identical to this Note in lieu of the lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note.
15. Notice . All notices required to be given pursuant hereto shall be given in the manner specified in the Loan Agreement directed to the parties at their respective addresses as provided there in .
16. Costs and Expenses . Maker shall pay all expenses and costs, including fees and out-of-pocket expenses of attorneys and expert witnesses and costs of investigation incurred by Payee as a result of any Event of Default or in connection with efforts to collect any amount due under this Note or to enforce the provisions of any of the Loan Documents, including those incurred in post-judgment collection efforts and in any bankruptcy proceeding (including any action for relief from the automatic stay of any bankruptcy proceeding) or judicial or non-judicial foreclosure proceeding.
17. Forbearance . Any forbearance by Payee in exercising any right or remedy under this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or any other Loan Document or otherwise afforded by applicable law shall not be a waiver of or preclude the exercise of that or any other right or remedy. The acceptance by Payee of any payment after the due date of such payment or in an amount which is less than the required payment shall not be a waiver of Payees right to require prompt payment when due of all other payments or to exercise any right or remedy with respect to any failure to make prompt payment. Enforcement by Payee of any security for Makers obligations under this Note shall not constitute an election by Payee of remedies so as to preclude the exercise of any other right or remedy available to Payee.
18. Section Headings . The Section headings inserted in this Note have been included for convenience only and are not intended and shall not be construed to limit or define in any way the substance of any section contained herein.
19. Limitation on Liability . Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, but subject to the obligations of Section 6.6 of the Loan Agreement, any claim based on or in respect of any liability of Maker under this Note, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage or any other Loan Document shall be enforced only against the Mortgaged Property (as such term is defined in the Mortgage) and any other collateral now or hereafter given to secure this Note and not against any other assets, properties or funds of Maker; provided , however, that the liability of Maker for loss, costs or damage arising out of the matters described in the subsections below (collectively, Non-Recourse Carveout Obligations ) shall not be limited solely to the Mortgaged Property and other collateral now or hereafter given to secure this Note but shall include all of the assets, properties and funds of Maker: (i) fraud, misrepresentation and waste; (ii) any rents, issues or profits collected more than one (1) month in advance of their due dates; (iii) any misapplication of rents, issues or profits, security deposits and any other payments from tenants or occupants (including, without limitation, lease termination fees), insurance proceeds, condemnation awards or other sums of a similar nature; (iv) liability under environmental covenants, conditions and indemnities contained in the Loan Agreement, including, but not limited to, Section 3.9, the Mortgage and in any separate environmental indemnity agreements; (v) personalty or fixtures removed or allowed to be removed by or on behalf of Maker and not replaced by items of equal or greater value or functionality than the personalty or fixtures so removed; (vi) failure to pay taxes, assessments or ground rents prior to delinquency, or to pay charges for labor, materials or other charges which can create liens on any portion of the Mortgaged Property before such charges become a lien on such Mortgaged Property or any portion thereof and any sums expended by Payee in the performance of or compliance with the obligations of Maker under the Loan Documents, including, without limitation, sums expended to pay taxes or assessments or hazard insurance premiums or bills for utilities or other services or products for the benefit of the Mortgaged Property; (vii) the unauthorized sale, conveyance or transfer of title to the Mortgaged Property or encumbrance of the Mortgaged Property; (viii) the failure of Maker to maintain its status as a single purpose , bankruptcy-remote entity pursuant to its organizational documents and the Loan Documents; (ix) a violation of the provisions of Section 3.7(h) of the Loan Agreement; (x) the filing of any action to partition the Mortgaged Property or any Individual Property (as defined in the Loan Agreement) or the occurrence of any such partition or any sale pursuant to any such action; (xi) the transfer of any TIC (as defined in the Loan Agreement) interests in any of the Mortgaged Property or any Individual Property, or any direct or indirect interests in the holder of any such TIC interest, other than as expressly permitted under Section 3.4(h) of the Loan Agreement; (xii) the termination, cancellation or non- renewal of an Approved Manager (as defined in the Loan Agreement) or any other failure of an Approved Manager to serve as manager of any Permitted TIC (as defined in the Loan Agreement); (xiii) the failure of any Approved Manager to meet the Management Requirements (as defined in the Loan Agreement); and (xiv) attorneys fees, court costs and other expenses incurred by Payee in connection with enforcement of its remedies under the Loan Documents, including, but not limited to, in connection with any bankruptcy proceeding or reorganization brought by or against Maker or any Principal (as defined in the Loan Agreement) of Maker.

WITNESSETH:
WHEREAS , Lender is the holder of a loan in the original aggregate principal amount of $21,765,000.00 (the Loan ) to Pledgor, which Loan was evidenced by multiple notes and certain of the individual notes have been repaid in full so that the Loan is presently evidenced by one (1) Mortgage Note dated February 25, 2008, in the original principal amount of $9,765,000.00 (as it may be amended, restated, renewed, extended or modified from time to time, collectively the Note ), to Lender from Pledgor and WU/LH 470 BRIDGEPORT L.L.C., WU/LH 950 BRIDGEPORT L.L.C., WU/LH 15 EXECUTIVE L.L.C., WU/LH 22 MARSH HILL L.L.C. and WU/LH 8 SLATER L.L.C. (collectively, the Released Pledgor ; and collectively with Borrower, the Original Pledgor ). The Loan is one of three (3) separate loans made by Lender to Original Pledgor pursuant to that certain Loan Agreement dated February 25, 2008 among Original Pledgor and Lender (the Original Loan Agreement ), which Original Loan Agreement is being simultaneously herewith amended and modified pursuant to that certain Amendment and Modification of Loan Agreement by and between Pledgor and Lender dated of even date herewith, which amendments include, among other things, a change in the ownership of Pledgor whereby GTJ REIT, Inc., a Maryland corporation ( GTJ ) shall become an indirect owner (the Amendment and collectively with the Original Loan Agreement as it may be amended, restated, renewed, extended or modified from time to time, the Loan Agreement ). Released Pledgor has been released by Lender from certain obligations under the Note and Original Loan Agreement pursuant to the Amendment;
WHEREAS, in addition to the Note and the Loan Agreement, the Loan is further evidenced and secured by the other Loan Documents (as defined in the Loan Agreement), including, without limitation, that certain Open-End Mortgage Deed, Assignment of Leases and Rents, Security Agreement and Fixture Filing dated as of February 25, 2008 ( Mortgage ) which encumbers, among other things, property known as 12 Cascade Boulevard, 269 Lambert Road a/k/a South Lambert Road and 25 Executive Boulevard, all in the Town of Orange, County of New Haven and State of Connecticut, which property is more particularly described in the Mortgage (the Mortgaged Property ) and which is recorded in the land records in the Town of Orange, State of Connecticut;
WHEREAS, as a condition to Lenders consent to the transaction contemplated in the Amendment, Lender has required that Pledgor grant a security interest to Lender in the Collateral (as defined below) to secure the Obligations (as defined below); and
WHEREAS, Pledgor desires to grant such security interest in the Collateral to Lender in order to induce Lender to consent to the transactions contemplated in the Amendment.
NOW, THEREFORE, for the purpose of inducing Lender to consent to the transaction contemplated by the Amendment, which Pledgor acknowledges is good, valuable, and sufficient consideration, Pledgor hereby agrees as follows:
1. Grant of Pledge . Pledgor does hereby pledge, assign, transfer and deliver to Lender, a continuing security interest in the Collateral to secure the Obligations.
2. Note, Loan Agreement, Loan Documents . This Agreement is delivered to secure the Loan. Capitalized terms used herein, which are not otherwise specifically defined, shall have the same meaning herein as in the Loan Agreement. This Agreement shall constitute a security agreement within the meaning of the Uniform Commercial Code as codified in the State of New York or any other applicable jurisdiction (hereinafter referred to as the Code ) with respect to the Collateral and a pledge by Pledgor to Lender of the Collateral under the common law of the State of New York.
3. Collateral . The term Collateral shall mean: (a) the account identified in Section 6.1 below (referred to therein and herein as the Deposit ) and all deposits made thereto; (b) all income now or hereafter earned therefrom; and (c) all proceeds and products of any one or more of the foregoing whether now existing or arising at any time in the future.
4. Obligations . The term Obligations shall mean obligations of Pledgor to Lender, whether now existing or hereafter arising, direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, under the Note and the other Loan Documents. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, Pledgor is and shall remain solely liable to pay for all interest, debt service and other payments due under the Note, the Loan Documents or with respect to the Mortgaged Property, including, without limitation, all taxes and all other costs and expenses incident to the Mortgaged Property. Nothing in this Agreement shall be intended or construed to hold Lender liable or responsible for any such amounts described above or other amounts payable by or on behalf of Pledgor, whether or not there are sufficient Funds to pay such amounts and whether any present or future creditor of Pledgor attempts to assert a claim against Lender or the Funds. Nothing contained herein shall characterize or be deemed to characterize Lender as a mortgagee-in-possession.
5. Warranties and Representations . Pledgor warrants and represents to, and agrees with, Lender that:
5.1 Pledgor is and shall be the owner of the Collateral free and clear of all pledges, liens, security interests and other encumbrances of every nature whatsoever, except in favor of Lender; Pledgor is and shall be the owner of the Account (as defined below) and Manager (as defined below) shall hold such Account in its name on behalf of and as agent for Pledgor only, and shall not own the Account and shall take no action with respect to such Account except at the direction of Pledgor or in accordance with this Agreement.
5.2 Pledgor has the full right, power and authority to pledge the Collateral and to grant the security interest in the Collateral as herein provided;
5.3 the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by Pledgor does not and shall not result in the violation of any mortgage, indenture, material contract, instrument, agreement, judgment, decree, order, statute, rule or regulation to which Pledgor is subject, or by which it or any of its property is bound;
5.4 Pledgor shall not suffer or permit any lien or encumbrance to exist on or with respect to the Collateral except in favor of Lender;
5.5 this Agreement constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of Pledgor in accordance with the terms hereof and has been duly authorized, executed and delivered; and
5.6 there is no material litigation or administrative proceeding now pending, or to the best of its knowledge threatened, against Pledgor which if adversely decided could materially impair the ability of Pledgor to pay or perform Pledgors obligations hereunder.
6. Procedures .
6.1. Deposit Account . Pledgor has caused to be established a segregated bank account in the name of Lighthouse Real Estate Management, LLC as agent for Pledgor as Account No. 483006513309 (the Deposit Account ) in Bank of America, N.A. (the Bank ). Pledgor has terminated Lighthouse Real Estate Management LLC as its agent and has named GTJ Management, LLC as its new agent and the Deposit Account has been transferred to, and is now in the name of, GTJ Management, LLC, as agent for Pledgor. All amounts in the Deposit Account, together with all interest and all other proceeds, income or profits thereof are referred to as the Funds . Pledgor has caused its property manager, GTJ Management, LLC ( Manager ) to assume the Accounts in Managers name on behalf of and as agent for Pledgor.
6.2 Account Control Agreement . Pledgor shall enter into and shall cause Bank to enter into an Account Control Agreement in substantially the form of Exhibit A attached hereto.
6.3. Permitted Investments . If the Pledgor has any options with respect to the investment of any of the Funds in the Deposit Account, Pledgor shall first obtain Lenders consent to such optional investment.
6.4 Charges . Pledgor shall pay upon billing therefor, or there shall be deducted from the Deposit Account or the income therefrom, all regular service fees, maintenance fees and transaction charges related thereto.
6.5. Reports . Pledgor shall cause the Bank to submit to Lender monthly statements or reports with respect to the Deposit Account in exactly the same form and content as are submitted by Bank to Pledgor.
6.6. Deposits into Deposit Account . Pledgor shall irrevocably and unconditionally direct and cause to be deposited into the Deposit Account directly by tenants of the Mortgaged Property and all other parties all rents, income, proceeds, payments and other amounts payable to or with respect to the Pledgor arising from or in connection with the Mortgaged Property, and if any such amounts should be received by Pledgor, Pledgor shall immediately pay over such amounts into the Deposit Account. Lender is authorized to endorse, in the name of Pledgor, any checks or other items, for deposit into the Deposit Account.
6.7. Use of Funds Prior to Event of Default . Prior to the occurrence of any Event of Default under the Loan Agreement (a Trigger Event ), Pledgor may use the Funds in the Deposit Account for any proper business purpose in the ordinary course of Pledgors business of owning and operating the Mortgaged Property.
6.8. Use of Funds After an Event of Default . Upon the occurrence of a Trigger Event, Pledgor shall no longer have any right to make any withdrawal from the Deposit Account or to otherwise direct or control the Deposit Account or the Funds. From and after the occurrence of an Event of Default, Lender shall have the sole right to make any withdrawal of Funds from the Deposit Account and to otherwise direct or control the Deposit Account and the Funds. Pledgor understands, acknowledges and agrees that upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Pledgor shall not have any access to the Funds, including, without limitation, any right, power or authority to withdraw or transfer any of the Funds. Lender may immediately and from time to time withdraw or cause to be disbursed to Lender the Funds in the Deposit Account to hold as additional security for the Loan or to apply to the payment of any of the Obligations. Notwithstanding the forgoing, Lender agrees to cause to be paid from the Funds available (i) on a monthly basis amounts for the payment of monthly debt service and any other amount due Lender under the Loan Documents, real estate tax and insurance payments (but not more than one-twelfth of such amount for each full calendar month after the Trigger Event) and normal monthly trade payables incurred in the operation of the Mortgaged Property as reasonably determined by Lender (but not including payments for capital expenses, extraordinary repairs or management fees, provided, however, that Lender shall not unreasonably withhold its consent to disbursements for capital expenses or extraordinary repairs if required under a lease, necessitated by law or required to prevent imminent threat to the health and safety of tenants or contractors, agents or invitees of Pledgor or tenants) and (ii), if (w) the Maturity Date under any Note has not been accelerated, (x) there is no Event of Default involving a payment due under the Notes or Loan Documents, (y) in addition to there being no Event of Default as described in clause (x), there is no Event of Default under Subsections 6.1(d), (e), (p) or (q) of the Loan Agreement, and (z) GTJ is a limited partner of Pledgor and is qualified as a real estate investment trust under the United States Internal Revenue Code, then a distribution to GTJ in the amount necessary for GTJ to pay dividends to its stockholders, which if not made would cause GTJ to fail to maintain real estate investment trust status under applicable Internal Revenue Code sections or any successor sections of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.
Any payments made under the preceding sentence may be paid to Pledgor, directly to the ultimate payee or by check payable jointly to Pledgor and such ultimate payee. Furthermore, any Funds remaining in the Deposit Account in any month after payment of such items required to be paid above may, at Lenders election, be applied by Lender to any amounts due or to become due under the Notes or otherwise due to Lender under the Loan Documents.
6.9 Termination . This Agreement shall terminate upon the full and final payment of the Loan and payment and performance of all of the Obligations to the satisfaction of Lender.
7. Amendments; Waivers; Remedies . Pledgor hereby consents to the extension, renewal, amendment, modification or recasting from time to time of the Obligations, or the other Loan Documents, or of any instrument, document or agreement evidencing or securing any of the same, and Pledgor specifically waives any notice of the creation or existence of any of such Obligations and of any such extension, renewal, amendment, modification or recasting. Pledgor also agrees that Lender may enforce its rights as against Pledgor, the Collateral, or any other party liable for the Obligations, or against any other collateral given for any of the Obligations, in any order or in such combination as Lender may in its sole discretion determine, and Pledgor hereby expressly waives all suretyship defenses and defenses in the nature thereof, agrees to the release or substitution of any collateral hereunder or otherwise, waives any defense based upon the invalidity or unenforceability of any of the Loan Documents, and consents to each and all of the terms, provisions and conditions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Upon an Event of Default, Lender may, at its option, from time to time, and notwithstanding any waiver or condonation at that time or at any other time, exercise any one or more of the rights and remedies set forth herein and/or those of a secured party afforded by the Code, or afforded by other applicable law. Requirement of reasonable notice with respect to any sale or disposition shall be satisfied if such notice is given in any manner permitted for notices under the Mortgage at least ten (10) days before the time of the sale or other disposition.
8. Expenses . Expenses of enforcing Lenders rights hereunder including, but not limited to, preparation for sale, selling or the like and Lenders reasonable attorneys fees and other legal expenses together with any interest thereon at the interest rate set forth in the Mortgage shall be payable by Pledgor and shall be secured hereby.
9. Affirmation of Loan Documents . The provisions of the Loan Documents are hereby ratified and confirmed and this Agreement shall be deemed to be one of the Loan Documents. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to be an agreement by Lender to forbear in exercising any of its rights and remedies which are available from time to time under the Loan Documents during the pendency of this Agreement. Lender expressly reserves any and all such rights and remedies available to it under the Loan Documents, at law or in equity.
10. Indemnification . In consideration of Lenders agreement to enter into the Loan Documents, Pledgor agrees for itself and its successors and assigns to indemnify and hold Lender harmless as to any expense, cost or liability incurred to any person by reason of the establishment and administration of this pledge and security agreement, including, without limitation, arising from Sections 8(b) or 9(b) of the Account Control Agreement, or the breach by Pledgor of this Agreement, and in connection herewith and upon demand, to reimburse Lender for all its reasonable expenses and costs including, among other things, reasonable counsel fees and court costs incurred in connection herewith or the enforcement of any rights hereunder. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, this Section shall survive the termination or expiration of this Agreement.
11. Transfers By Lender . Pledgor agrees that upon any sale or transfer by Lender of the Loan Documents and the indebtedness evidenced thereby, Lender may deliver to the purchaser or transferee the Collateral, who shall thereupon become vested with all powers and rights given to Lender in respect thereto (and be subject to Lenders obligations hereunder), and Lender shall be thereafter forever relieved and fully discharged from any liability or responsibility thereafter accruing in connection therewith (provided the transferee or the assignee assumes responsibility therefor).
12. Successors and Assigns . All of the agreements, obligations, undertakings, representations and warranties herein made by Pledgor or Lender shall inure to the benefit of the other party, and their respective successors and assigns, and shall bind Pledgor and Lender and their respective successors and assigns.
13. Filing; Further Assurances . The Pledgor hereby irrevocably authorizes the Lender at any time and from time to time to file in any Code jurisdiction any financing statements and amendments thereto that (a) indicate the Collateral and (b) contain any other information required by the Code for the sufficiency or filing office acceptance of any financing statement or amendment. The Pledgor agrees to furnish any such information to the Lender promptly upon request. The Pledgor also ratifies its authorization for the Lender to have filed in any Code jurisdiction any financing statements or amendments thereto filed prior to the date hereof. In addition, Pledgor shall promptly execute, file and record such additional Code forms or continuation statements as Lender shall reasonably deem necessary. Pledgor hereby grants to Lender an irrevocable power of attorney, coupled with an interest, to file with the appropriate public office on its behalf any financing or other statements signed, if at all, only by Lender, as secured party, in connection with the Collateral covered by the Mortgage. Pledgor agrees to pay all filing fees, including fees for filing continuation statements in connection with such financing statements, and to reimburse Lender for all costs and expenses of any kind incurred in connection therewith. Pledgor agrees to execute such further assurances and other instruments as Lender may deem necessary or desirable to effectuate the purposes of this Agreement.
14. No Liens or Transfers By Pledgor . Pledgor agrees that until Pledgor is entitled to a return of the Collateral, or so much thereof as remains, Pledgor shall not, without the express prior written consent of Lender in each instance, transfer the Collateral or any interest therein or enter into any agreement for the transfer of such Collateral, or permit or suffer any other liens, whether or not junior to the lien created hereby, to be created or to exist with respect to the Collateral.
The foregoing shall not by implication relieve the Pledgor from the restrictions upon liens set forth in the other Loan Documents.
15. Notices . Any notices given in connection with this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be effective only if given according to the provisions therefor contained in the Loan Agreement.
16. Counterparts . This Agreement may be executed in several counterparts, each of which when executed and delivered is an original, but all of which together shall constitute one instrument. In making proof of this Agreement, it shall not be necessary to produce or account for more than one such counterpart which is executed by the party against whom enforcement of such agreement is sought.
17. Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction . The rights and obligations of Pledgor and all provisions hereof shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws and decisions of the State of New York. Pledgor hereby submits to the jurisdiction of the courts located in the State of New York or any other jurisdiction in which any collateral for the Loan is located or where any other legal action is brought or pending concerning the Loan, as well as to the jurisdiction of all courts to which an appeal may be taken or other review sought from the aforesaid courts, for the purpose of any suit, action or other proceeding arising out of the Obligations under or with respect to this Agreement, and expressly waives any and all objections it may have as to venue in any of such courts.
18. Time of Essence . Time shall be of the essence of this Agreement.
19. WAIVER OF TRIAL BY JURY . PLEDGOR HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT THAT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LITIGATION ARISING IN ANY WAY IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, OR ANY OTHER STATEMENTS OR ACTIONS OF PLEDGOR OR LENDER. PLEDGOR ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT HAS BEEN REPRESENTED IN THE SIGNING OF THIS AGREEMENT AND IN THE MAKING OF THIS WAIVER BY INDEPENDENT LEGAL COUNSEL SELECTED OF ITS OWN FREE WILL, AND THAT IT HAS DISCUSSED THIS WAIVER WITH SUCH LEGAL COUNSEL. PLEDGOR FURTHER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT (i) IT HAS READ AND UNDERSTANDS THE MEANING AND RAMIFICATIONS OF THIS WAIVER, (ii) THIS WAIVER IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR LENDER TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND EACH OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, AND (iii) THIS WAIVER SHALL BE EFFECTIVE AS TO EACH OF SUCH OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS AS IF FULLY INCORPORATED THEREIN.

WITNESSETH:
WHEREAS , Lender is the holder of a loan in the aggregate principal amount of $32,585,000.00 (the Loan ) to Pledgor, evidenced by two (2) Mortgage Notes each dated February 25, 2008, one in the original principal amount of $20,960,000.00 and one in the original principal amount of $11,625,000.00 (as they may be amended, restated, renewed, extended or modified from time to time, collectively the Note ), each to Lender from Pledgor and WU/LH 470 BRIDGEPORT L.L.C., WU/LH 950 BRIDGEPORT L.L.C., WU/LH 15 EXECUTIVE L.L.C., WU/LH 22 MARSH HILL L.L.C. and WU/LH 8 SLATER L.L.C. (collectively, the Released Pledgor ; and collectively with Borrower, the Original Pledgor ). The Loan is one of three (3) separate loans made by Lender to Original Pledgor pursuant to that certain Loan Agreement dated February 25, 2008 among Original Pledgor and Lender (the Original Loan Agreement ), which Original Loan Agreement is being simultaneously herewith amended and modified pursuant to that certain Amendment and Modification of Loan Agreement by and between Pledgor and Lender dated of even date herewith, which amendments include, among other things, a change in the ownership of Pledgor whereby GTJ REIT, Inc., a Maryland corporation ( GTJ ) shall become an indirect owner (the Amendment and collectively with the Original Loan Agreement as it may be amended, restated, renewed, extended or modified from time to time, the Loan Agreement ). Released Pledgor has been released by Lender from certain obligations under the Note and Original Loan Agreement pursuant to the Amendment;
WHEREAS, in addition to the Note and the Loan Agreement, the Loan is further evidenced and secured by the other Loan Documents (as defined in the Loan Agreement), including, without limitation, that certain Mortgage, Assignment of Leases and Rents, Security Agreement and Fixture Filing dated as of February 25, 2008 ( Mortgage ) which encumbers, among other things, property known as 100 American Road, 200 American Road, 300 American Road, 400 American Road and 500 American Road, all in the Town of Morris Plains, County of Morris and State of New Jersey, which property is more particularly described in the Mortgage (the Mortgaged Property ) and which is recorded in the Morris County Clerks Office;
WHEREAS, as a condition to Lenders consent to the transaction contemplated in the Amendment, Lender has required that Pledgor grant a security interest to Lender in the Collateral (as defined below) to secure the Obligations (as defined below); and
WHEREAS, Pledgor desires to grant such security interest in the Collateral to Lender in order to induce Lender to consent to the transactions contemplated in the Amendment.
NOW, THEREFORE, for the purpose of inducing Lender to consent to the transaction contemplated by the Amendment, which Pledgor acknowledges is good, valuable, and sufficient consideration, Pledgor hereby agrees as follows:
1. Grant of Pledge . Pledgor does hereby pledge, assign, transfer and deliver to Lender, a continuing security interest in the Collateral to secure the Obligations.
2. Note, Loan Agreement, Loan Documents . This Agreement is delivered to secure the Loan. Capitalized terms used herein, which are not otherwise specifically defined, shall have the same meaning herein as in the Loan Agreement. This Agreement shall constitute a security agreement within the meaning of the Uniform Commercial Code as codified in the State of New York or any other applicable jurisdiction (hereinafter referred to as the Code ) with respect to the Collateral and a pledge by Pledgor to Lender of the Collateral under the common law of the State of New York.
3. Collateral . The term Collateral shall mean: (a) the account identified in Section 6.1 below (referred to therein and herein as the Deposit ) and all deposits made thereto; (b) all income now or hereafter earned therefrom; and (c) all proceeds and products of any one or more of the foregoing whether now existing or arising at any time in the future.
4. Obligations . The term Obligations shall mean obligations of Pledgor to Lender, whether now existing or hereafter arising, direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, under the Note and the other Loan Documents. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, Pledgor is and shall remain solely liable to pay for all interest, debt service and other payments due under the Note, the Loan Documents or with respect to the Mortgaged Property, including, without limitation, all taxes and all other costs and expenses incident to the Mortgaged Property. Nothing in this Agreement shall be intended or construed to hold Lender liable or responsible for any such amounts described above or other amounts payable by or on behalf of Pledgor, whether or not there are sufficient Funds to pay such amounts and whether any present or future creditor of Pledgor attempts to assert a claim against Lender or the Funds. Nothing contained herein shall characterize or be deemed to characterize Lender as a mortgagee-in-possession.
5. Warranties and Representations . Pledgor warrants and represents to, and agrees with, Lender that:
5.1 Pledgor is and shall be the owner of the Collateral free and clear of all pledges, liens, security interests and other encumbrances of every nature whatsoever, except in favor of Lender; Pledgor is and shall be the owner of the Account (as defined below) and Manager (as defined below) shall hold such Account in its name on behalf of and as agent for Pledgor only, and shall not own the Account and shall take no action with respect to such Account except at the direction of Pledgor or in accordance with this Agreement.
5.2 Pledgor has the full right, power and authority to pledge the Collateral and to grant the security interest in the Collateral as herein provided;
5.3 the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by Pledgor does not and shall not result in the violation of any mortgage, indenture, material contract, instrument, agreement, judgment, decree, order, statute, rule or regulation to which Pledgor is subject, or by which it or any of its property is bound;
5.4 Pledgor shall not suffer or permit any lien or encumbrance to exist on or with respect to the Collateral except in favor of Lender;
5.5 this Agreement constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of Pledgor in accordance with the terms hereof and has been duly authorized, executed and delivered; and
5.6 there is no material litigation or administrative proceeding now pending, or to the best of its knowledge threatened, against Pledgor which if adversely decided could materially impair the ability of Pledgor to pay or perform Pledgors obligations hereunder.
6. Procedures .
6.1. Deposit Account . Pledgor has caused to be established a segregated bank account in the name of Lighthouse Real Estate Management, LLC as agent for Pledgor as Account No. 483006513299 (the Deposit Account ) in Bank of America, N.A. (the Bank ). Pledgor has terminated Lighthouse Real Estate Management LLC as its agent and has named GTJ Management, LLC as its new agent and the Deposit Account has been transferred to, and is now in the name of, GTJ Management, LLC, as agent for Pledgor. All amounts in the Deposit Account, together with all interest and all other proceeds, income or profits thereof are referred to as the Funds . Pledgor has caused its property manager, GTJ Management, LLC ( Manager ) to assume the Accounts in Managers name on behalf of and as agent for Pledgor.
6.2 Account Control Agreement . Pledgor shall enter into and shall cause Bank to enter into an Account Control Agreement in substantially the form of Exhibit A attached hereto.
6.3. Permitted Investments . If the Pledgor has any options with respect to the investment of any of the Funds in the Deposit Account, Pledgor shall first obtain Lenders consent to such optional investment.
6.4 Charges . Pledgor shall pay upon billing therefor, or there shall be deducted from the Deposit Account or the income therefrom, all regular service fees, maintenance fees and transaction charges related thereto.
6.5. Reports . Pledgor shall cause the Bank to submit to Lender monthly statements or reports with respect to the Deposit Account in exactly the same form and content as are submitted by Bank to Pledgor.
6.6. Deposits into Deposit Account . Pledgor shall irrevocably and unconditionally direct and cause to be deposited into the Deposit Account directly by tenants of the Mortgaged Property and all other parties all rents, income, proceeds, payments and other amounts payable to or with respect to the Pledgor arising from or in connection with the Mortgaged Property, and if any such amounts should be received by Pledgor, Pledgor shall immediately pay over such amounts into the Deposit Account. Lender is authorized to endorse, in the name of Pledgor, any checks or other items, for deposit into the Deposit Account.
6.7. Use of Funds Prior to Event of Default . Prior to the occurrence of any Event of Default under the Loan Agreement (a Trigger Event ), Pledgor may use the Funds in the Deposit Account for any proper business purpose in the ordinary course of Pledgors business of owning and operating the Mortgaged Property.
6.8. Use of Funds After an Event of Default . Upon the occurrence of a Trigger Event, Pledgor shall no longer have any right to make any withdrawal from the Deposit Account or to otherwise direct or control the Deposit Account or the Funds. From and after the occurrence of an Event of Default, Lender shall have the sole right to make any withdrawal of Funds from the Deposit Account and to otherwise direct or control the Deposit Account and the Funds. Pledgor understands, acknowledges and agrees that upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Pledgor shall not have any access to the Funds, including, without limitation, any right, power or authority to withdraw or transfer any of the Funds. Lender may immediately and from time to time withdraw or cause to be disbursed to Lender the Funds in the Deposit Account to hold as additional security for the Loan or to apply to the payment of any of the Obligations. Notwithstanding the forgoing, Lender agrees to cause to be paid from the Funds available (i) on a monthly basis amounts for the payment of monthly debt service and any other amount due Lender under the Loan Documents, real estate tax and insurance payments (but not more than one-twelfth of such amount for each full calendar month after the Trigger Event) and normal monthly trade payables incurred in the operation of the Mortgaged Property as reasonably determined by Lender (but not including payments for capital expenses, extraordinary repairs or management fees, provided, however, that Lender shall not unreasonably withhold its consent to disbursements for capital expenses or extraordinary repairs if required under a lease, necessitated by law or required to prevent imminent threat to the health and safety of tenants or contractors, agents or invitees of Pledgor or tenants) and (ii), if (w) the Maturity Date under any Note has not been accelerated, (x) there is no Event of Default involving a payment due under the Notes or Loan Documents, (y) in addition to there being no Event of Default as described in clause (x), there is no Event of Default under Subsections 6.1(d), (e), (p) or (q) of the Loan Agreement, and (z) GTJ is a limited partner of Pledgor and is qualified as a real estate investment trust under the United States Internal Revenue Code, then a distribution to GTJ in the amount necessary for GTJ to pay dividends to its stockholders, which if not made would cause GTJ to fail to maintain real estate investment trust status under applicable Internal Revenue Code sections or any successor sections of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.
Any payments made under the preceding sentence may be paid to Pledgor, directly to the ultimate payee or by check payable jointly to Pledgor and such ultimate payee. Furthermore, any Funds remaining in the Deposit Account in any month after payment of such items required to be paid above may, at Lenders election, be applied by Lender to any amounts due or to become due under the Notes or otherwise due to Lender under the Loan Documents.
6.9 Termination . This Agreement shall terminate upon the full and final payment of the Loan and payment and performance of all of the Obligations to the satisfaction of Lender.
7. Amendments; Waivers; Remedies . Pledgor hereby consents to the extension, renewal, amendment, modification or recasting from time to time of the Obligations, or the other Loan Documents, or of any instrument, document or agreement evidencing or securing any of the same, and Pledgor specifically waives any notice of the creation or existence of any of such Obligations and of any such extension, renewal, amendment, modification or recasting. Pledgor also agrees that Lender may enforce its rights as against Pledgor, the Collateral, or any other party liable for the Obligations, or against any other collateral given for any of the Obligations, in any order or in such combination as Lender may in its sole discretion determine, and Pledgor hereby expressly waives all suretyship defenses and defenses in the nature thereof, agrees to the release or substitution of any collateral hereunder or otherwise, waives any defense based upon the invalidity or unenforceability of any of the Loan Documents, and consents to each and all of the terms, provisions and conditions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Upon an Event of Default, Lender may, at its option, from time to time, and notwithstanding any waiver or condonation at that time or at any other time, exercise any one or more of the rights and remedies set forth herein and/or those of a secured party afforded by the Code, or afforded by other applicable law. Requirement of reasonable notice with respect to any sale or disposition shall be satisfied if such notice is given in any manner permitted for notices under the Mortgage at least ten (10) days before the time of the sale or other disposition.
8. Expenses . Expenses of enforcing Lenders rights hereunder including, but not limited to, preparation for sale, selling or the like and Lenders reasonable attorneys fees and other legal expenses together with any interest thereon at the interest rate set forth in the Mortgage shall be payable by Pledgor and shall be secured hereby.
9. Affirmation of Loan Documents . The provisions of the Loan Documents are hereby ratified and confirmed and this Agreement shall be deemed to be one of the Loan Documents. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to be an agreement by Lender to forbear in exercising any of its rights and remedies which are available from time to time under the Loan Documents during the pendency of this Agreement. Lender expressly reserves any and all such rights and remedies available to it under the Loan Documents, at law or in equity.
10. Indemnification . In consideration of Lenders agreement to enter into the Loan Documents, Pledgor agrees for itself and its successors and assigns to indemnify and hold Lender harmless as to any expense, cost or liability incurred to any person by reason of the establishment and administration of this pledge and security agreement, including, without limitation, arising from Sections 8(b) or 9(b) of the Account Control Agreement, or the breach by Pledgor of this Agreement, and in connection herewith and upon demand, to reimburse Lender for all its reasonable expenses and costs including, among other things, reasonable counsel fees and court costs incurred in connection herewith or the enforcement of any rights hereunder. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, this Section shall survive the termination or expiration of this Agreement.
11. Transfers By Lender . Pledgor agrees that upon any sale or transfer by Lender of the Loan Documents and the indebtedness evidenced thereby, Lender may deliver to the purchaser or transferee the Collateral, who shall thereupon become vested with all powers and rights given to Lender in respect thereto (and be subject to Lenders obligations hereunder), and Lender shall be thereafter forever relieved and fully discharged from any liability or responsibility thereafter accruing in connection therewith (provided the transferee or the assignee assumes responsibility therefor).
12. Successors and Assigns . All of the agreements, obligations, undertakings, representations and warranties herein made by Pledgor or Lender shall inure to the benefit of the other party, and their respective successors and assigns, and shall bind Pledgor and Lender and their respective successors and assigns.
13. Filing; Further Assurances . The Pledgor hereby irrevocably authorizes the Lender at any time and from time to time to file in any Code jurisdiction any financing statements and amendments thereto that (a) indicate the Collateral and (b) contain any other information required by the Code for the sufficiency or filing office acceptance of any financing statement or amendment. The Pledgor agrees to furnish any such information to the Lender promptly upon request. The Pledgor also ratifies its authorization for the Lender to have filed in any Code jurisdiction any financing statements or amendments thereto filed prior to the date hereof. In addition, Pledgor shall promptly execute, file and record such additional Code forms or continuation statements as Lender shall reasonably deem necessary. Pledgor hereby grants to Lender an irrevocable power of attorney, coupled with an interest, to file with the appropriate public office on its behalf any financing or other statements signed, if at all, only by Lender, as secured party, in connection with the Collateral covered by the Mortgage. Pledgor agrees to pay all filing fees, including fees for filing continuation statements in connection with such financing statements, and to reimburse Lender for all costs and expenses of any kind incurred in connection therewith. Pledgor agrees to execute such further assurances and other instruments as Lender may deem necessary or desirable to effectuate the purposes of this Agreement.
14. No Liens or Transfers By Pledgor . Pledgor agrees that until Pledgor is entitled to a return of the Collateral, or so much thereof as remains, Pledgor shall not, without the express prior written consent of Lender in each instance, transfer the Collateral or any interest therein or enter into any agreement for the transfer of such Collateral, or permit or suffer any other liens, whether or not junior to the lien created hereby, to be created or to exist with respect to the Collateral. The foregoing shall not by implication relieve the Pledgor from the restrictions upon liens set forth in the other Loan Documents.
15. Notices . Any notices given in connection with this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be effective only if given according to the provisions therefor contained in the Loan Agreement.
16. Counterparts . This Agreement may be executed in several counterparts, each of which when executed and delivered is an original, but all of which together shall constitute one instrument. In making proof of this Agreement, it shall not be necessary to produce or account for more than one such counterpart which is executed by the party against whom enforcement of such agreement is sought.
17. Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction . The rights and obligations of Pledgor and all provisions hereof shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws and decisions of the State of New York. Pledgor hereby submits to the jurisdiction of the courts located in the State of New York or any other jurisdiction in which any collateral for the Loan is located or where any other legal action is brought or pending concerning the Loan, as well as to the jurisdiction of all courts to which an appeal may be taken or other review sought from the aforesaid courts, for the purpose of any suit, action or other proceeding arising out of the Obligations under or with respect to this Agreement, and expressly waives any and all objections it may have as to venue in any of such courts.
18. Time of Essence . Time shall be of the essence of this Agreement.
19. WAIVER OF TRIAL BY JURY . PLEDGOR HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT THAT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LITIGATION ARISING IN ANY WAY IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, OR ANY OTHER STATEMENTS OR ACTIONS OF PLEDGOR OR LENDER. PLEDGOR ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT HAS BEEN REPRESENTED IN THE SIGNING OF THIS AGREEMENT AND IN THE MAKING OF THIS WAIVER BY INDEPENDENT LEGAL COUNSEL SELECTED OF ITS OWN FREE WILL, AND THAT IT HAS DISCUSSED THIS WAIVER WITH SUCH LEGAL COUNSEL. PLEDGOR FURTHER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT (i) IT HAS READ AND UNDERSTANDS THE MEANING AND RAMIFICATIONS OF THIS WAIVER, (ii) THIS WAIVER IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR LENDER TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND EACH OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, AND (iii) THIS WAIVER SHALL BE EFFECTIVE AS TO EACH OF SUCH OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS AS IF FULLY INCORPORATED THEREIN.

WITNESSETH:
WHEREAS , Lender is the holder of a loan in the original aggregate principal amount of $50,650,000.00 (the Loan ) to Pledgor, which Loan was evidenced by multiple notes and certain of the individual notes have been repaid in full so that the Loan is presently evidenced by two (2) Mortgage Notes each dated February 25, 2008, one in the original principal amount of $30,650,000.00 and one in the original principal amount of $16,100,000.00 (as they may be amended, restated, renewed, extended or modified from time to time, collectively the Note ), each to Lender from Pledgor and WU/LH 470 BRIDGEPORT L.L.C., WU/LH 950 BRIDGEPORT L.L.C., WU/LH 15 EXECUTIVE L.L.C., WU/LH 22 MARSH HILL L.L.C. and WU/LH 8 SLATER L.L.C.

The Loan is one of three (3) separate loans made by Lender to Original Pledgor pursuant to that certain Loan Agreement dated February 25, 2008 among Original Pledgor and Lender (the Original Loan Agreement ), which Original Loan Agreement is being simultaneously herewith amended and modified pursuant to that certain Amendment and Modification of Loan Agreement by and between Pledgor and Lender dated of even date herewith, which amendments, include, among other things, a change in the ownership of Pledgor whereby GTJ REIT, Inc., a Maryland corporation ( GTJ ) shall become an indirect owner (the Amendment and collectively with the Original Loan Agreement as it may be amended, restated, renewed, extended or modified from time to time, the Loan Agreement ). Released Pledgor has been released by Lender from certain obligations under the Note and Original Loan Agreement pursuant to the Amendment;
WHEREAS, in addition to the Note and the Loan Agreement, the Loan is further evidenced and secured by the other Loan Documents (as defined in the Loan Agreement), including, without limitation, that certain Mortgage, Assignment of Leases and Rents and Security Agreement dated as of February 25, 2008 ( Mortgage ) which encumbers, among other things, property known as 103 Fairview Park Drive, 412 Fairview Park Drive, 401 Fieldcrest Drive, 404 Fieldcrest Drive, 199 Ridgewood Drive and 203 Ridgewood Drive in the Town of Greenburgh, and 36 Midland Avenue, 100-110 Midland Avenue and 112 Midland Avenue in the Village of Port Chester, all in the County of Westchester and State of New York, which property is more particularly described in the Mortgage (the Mortgaged Property ) and which is recorded in the Westchester County Clerks Office;
WHEREAS, as a condition to Lenders consent to the transaction contemplated in the Amendment, Lender has required that Pledgor grant a security interest to Lender in the Collateral (as defined below) to secure the Obligations (as defined below); and
WHEREAS, Pledgor desires to grant such security interest in the Collateral to Lender in order to induce Lender to consent to the transactions contemplated in the Amendment.
NOW, THEREFORE, for the purpose of inducing Lender to consent to the transaction contemplated by the Amendment, which Pledgor acknowledges is good, valuable, and sufficient consideration, Pledgor hereby agrees as follows:
1. Grant of Pledge . Pledgor does hereby pledge, assign, transfer and deliver to Lender, a continuing security interest in the Collateral to secure the Obligations.
2. Note, Loan Agreement, Loan Documents . This Agreement is delivered to secure the Loan. Capitalized terms used herein, which are not otherwise specifically defined, shall have the same meaning herein as in the Loan Agreement. This Agreement shall constitute a security agreement within the meaning of the Uniform Commercial Code as codified in the State of New York or any other applicable jurisdiction (hereinafter referred to as the Code ) with respect to the Collateral and a pledge by Pledgor to Lender of the Collateral under the common law of the State of New York.
3. Collateral . The term Collateral shall mean: (a) the account identified in Section 6.1 below (referred to therein and herein as the Deposit ) and all deposits made thereto; (b) all income now or hereafter earned therefrom; and (c) all proceeds and products of any one or more of the foregoing whether now existing or arising at any time in the future.
4. Obligations . The term Obligations shall mean obligations of Pledgor to Lender, whether now existing or hereafter arising, direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, under the Note and the other Loan Documents. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, Pledgor is and shall remain solely liable to pay for all interest, debt service and other payments due under the Note, the Loan Documents or with respect to the Mortgaged Property, including, without limitation, all taxes and all other costs and expenses incident to the Mortgaged Property. Nothing in this Agreement shall be intended or construed to hold Lender liable or responsible for any such amounts described above or other amounts payable by or on behalf of Pledgor, whether or not there are sufficient Funds to pay such amounts and whether any present or future creditor of Pledgor attempts to assert a claim against Lender or the Funds. Nothing contained herein shall characterize or be deemed to characterize Lender as a mortgagee-in-possession.
5. Warranties and Representations . Pledgor warrants and represents to, and agrees with, Lender that:
5.1 Pledgor is and shall be the owner of the Collateral free and clear of all pledges, liens, security interests and other encumbrances of every nature whatsoever, except in favor of Lender; Pledgor is and shall be the owner of the Account (as defined below) and Manager (as defined below) shall hold such Account in its name on behalf of and as agent for Pledgor only, and shall not own the Account and shall take no action with respect to such Account except at the direction of Pledgor or in accordance with this Agreement.
5.2 Pledgor has the full right, power and authority to pledge the Collateral and to grant the security interest in the Collateral as herein provided;
5.3 the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by Pledgor does not and shall not result in the violation of any mortgage, indenture, material contract, instrument, agreement, judgment, decree, order, statute, rule or regulation to which Pledgor is subject, or by which it or any of its property is bound;
5.4 Pledgor shall not suffer or permit any lien or encumbrance to exist on or with respect to the Collateral except in favor of Lender;
5.5 this Agreement constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of Pledgor in accordance with the terms hereof and has been duly authorized, executed and delivered; and
5.6 there is no material litigation or administrative proceeding now pending, or to the best of its knowledge threatened, against Pledgor which if adversely decided could materially impair the ability of Pledgor to pay or perform Pledgors obligations hereunder.
6. Procedures .
6.1. Deposit Account . Pledgor has caused to be established a segregated bank account in the name of Lighthouse Real Estate Management, LLC as agent for Pledgor as Account No. 483006513312 (the Deposit Account ) in Bank of America, N.A. (the Bank ). Pledgor has terminated Lighthouse Real Estate Management LLC as its agent and has named GTJ Management, LLC as its new agent and the Deposit Account has been transferred to, and is now in the name of, GTJ Management, LLC, as agent for Pledgor. All amounts in the Deposit Account, together with all interest and all other proceeds, income or profits thereof are referred to as the Funds . Pledgor has caused its property manager, GTJ Management, LLC ( Manager ) to assume the Accounts in Managers name on behalf of and as agent for Pledgor.
6.2 Account Control Agreement . Pledgor shall enter into and shall cause Bank to enter into an Account Control Agreement in substantially the form of Exhibit A attached hereto.
6.3. Permitted Investments . If the Pledgor has any options with respect to the investment of any of the Funds in the Deposit Account, Pledgor shall first obtain Lenders consent to such optional investment.
6.4 Charges . Pledgor shall pay upon billing therefor, or there shall be deducted from the Deposit Account or the income therefrom, all regular service fees, maintenance fees and transaction charges related thereto.
6.5. Reports . Pledgor shall cause the Bank to submit to Lender monthly statements or reports with respect to the Deposit Account in exactly the same form and content as are submitted by Bank to Pledgor.
6.6. Deposits into Deposit Account . Pledgor shall irrevocably and unconditionally direct and cause to be deposited into the Deposit Account directly by tenants of the Mortgaged Property and all other parties all rents, income, proceeds, payments and other amounts payable to or with respect to the Pledgor arising from or in connection with the Mortgaged Property, and if any such amounts should be received by Pledgor, Pledgor shall immediately pay over such amounts into the Deposit Account. Lender is authorized to endorse, in the name of Pledgor, any checks or other items, for deposit into the Deposit Account.
6.7. Use of Funds Prior to Event of Default . Prior to the occurrence of any Event of Default under the Loan Agreement (a Trigger Event ), Pledgor may use the Funds in the Deposit Account for any proper business purpose in the ordinary course of Pledgors business of owning and operating the Mortgaged Property.
6.8. Use of Funds After an Event of Default . Upon the occurrence of a Trigger Event, Pledgor shall no longer have any right to make any withdrawal from the Deposit Account or to otherwise direct or control the Deposit Account or the Funds. From and after the occurrence of an Event of Default, Lender shall have the sole right to make any withdrawal of Funds from the Deposit Account and to otherwise direct or control the Deposit Account and the Funds. Pledgor understands, acknowledges and agrees that upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Pledgor shall not have any access to the Funds, including, without limitation, any right, power or authority to withdraw or transfer any of the Funds. Lender may immediately and from time to time withdraw or cause to be disbursed to Lender the Funds in the Deposit Account to hold as additional security for the Loan or to apply to the payment of any of the Obligations. Notwithstanding the forgoing, Lender agrees to cause to be paid from the Funds available (i) on a monthly basis amounts for the payment of monthly debt service and any other amount due Lender under the Loan Documents, real estate tax and insurance payments (but not more than one-twelfth of such amount for each full calendar month after the Trigger Event) and normal monthly trade payables incurred in the operation of the Mortgaged Property as reasonably determined by Lender (but not including payments for capital expenses, extraordinary repairs or management fees, provided, however, that Lender shall not unreasonably withhold its consent to disbursements for capital expenses or extraordinary repairs if required under a lease, necessitated by law or required to prevent imminent threat to the health and safety of tenants or contractors, agents or invitees of Pledgor or tenants) and (ii), if (w) the Maturity Date under any Note has not been accelerated, (x) there is no Event of Default involving a payment due under the Notes or Loan Documents, (y) in addition to there being no Event of Default as described in clause (x), there is no Event of Default under Subsections 6.1(d), (e), (p) or (q) of the Loan Agreement, and (z) GTJ is a limited partner of Pledgor and is qualified as a real estate investment trust under the United States Internal Revenue Code, then a distribution to GTJ in the amount necessary for GTJ to pay dividends to its stockholders, which if not made would cause GTJ to fail to maintain real estate investment trust status under applicable Internal Revenue Code sections or any successor sections of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.
Any payments made under the preceding sentence may be paid to Pledgor, directly to the ultimate payee or by check payable jointly to Pledgor and such ultimate payee. Furthermore, any Funds remaining in the Deposit Account in any month after payment of such items required to be paid above may, at Lenders election, be applied by Lender to any amounts due or to become due under the Notes or otherwise due to Lender under the Loan Documents.
6.9 Termination . This Agreement shall terminate upon the full and final payment of the Loan and payment and performance of all of the Obligations to the satisfaction of Lender.
7. Amendments; Waivers; Remedies . Pledgor hereby consents to the extension, renewal, amendment, modification or recasting from time to time of the Obligations, or the other Loan Documents, or of any instrument, document or agreement evidencing or securing any of the same, and Pledgor specifically waives any notice of the creation or existence of any of such Obligations and of any such extension, renewal, amendment, modification or recasting. Pledgor also agrees that Lender may enforce its rights as against Pledgor, the Collateral, or any other party liable for the Obligations, or against any other collateral given for any of the Obligations, in any order or in such combination as Lender may in its sole discretion determine, and Pledgor hereby expressly waives all suretyship defenses and defenses in the nature thereof, agrees to the release or substitution of any collateral hereunder or otherwise, waives any defense based upon the invalidity or unenforceability of any of the Loan Documents, and consents to each and all of the terms, provisions and conditions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Upon an Event of Default, Lender may, at its option, from time to time, and notwithstanding any waiver or condonation at that time or at any other time, exercise any one or more of the rights and remedies set forth herein and/or those of a secured party afforded by the Code, or afforded by other applicable law. Requirement of reasonable notice with respect to any sale or disposition shall be satisfied if such notice is given in any manner permitted for notices under the Mortgage at least ten (10) days before the time of the sale or other disposition.
8. Expenses . Expenses of enforcing Lenders rights hereunder including, but not limited to, preparation for sale, selling or the like and Lenders reasonable attorneys fees and other legal expenses together with any interest thereon at the interest rate set forth in the Mortgage shall be payable by Pledgor and shall be secured hereby.
9. Affirmation of Loan Documents . The provisions of the Loan Documents are hereby ratified and confirmed and this Agreement shall be deemed to be one of the Loan Documents. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to be an agreement by Lender to forbear in exercising any of its rights and remedies which are available from time to time under the Loan Documents during the pendency of this Agreement. Lender expressly reserves any and all such rights and remedies available to it under the Loan Documents, at law or in equity.
10. Indemnification . In consideration of Lenders agreement to enter into the Loan Documents, Pledgor agrees for itself and its successors and assigns to indemnify and hold Lender harmless as to any expense, cost or liability incurred to any person by reason of the establishment and administration of this pledge and security agreement, including, without limitation, arising from Sections 8(b) or 9(b) of the Account Control Agreement, or the breach by Pledgor of this Agreement, and in connection herewith and upon demand, to reimburse Lender for all its reasonable expenses and costs including, among other things, reasonable counsel fees and court costs incurred in connection herewith or the enforcement of any rights hereunder. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, this Section shall survive the termination or expiration of this Agreement.
11. Transfers By Lender . Pledgor agrees that upon any sale or transfer by Lender of the Loan Documents and the indebtedness evidenced thereby, Lender may deliver to the purchaser or transferee the Collateral, who shall thereupon become vested with all powers and rights given to Lender in respect thereto (and be subject to Lenders obligations hereunder), and Lender shall be thereafter forever relieved and fully discharged from any liability or responsibility thereafter accruing in connection therewith (provided the transferee or the assignee assumes responsibility therefor).
12. Successors and Assigns . All of the agreements, obligations, undertakings, representations and warranties herein made by Pledgor or Lender shall inure to the benefit of the other party, and their respective successors and assigns, and shall bind Pledgor and Lender and their respective successors and assigns.
13. Filing; Further Assurances . The Pledgor hereby irrevocably authorizes the Lender at any time and from time to time to file in any Code jurisdiction any financing statements and amendments thereto that (a) indicate the Collateral and (b) contain any other information required by the Code for the sufficiency or filing office acceptance of any financing statement or amendment. The Pledgor agrees to furnish any such information to the Lender promptly upon request.

(each individually a Company, and collectively, Company), JOHN HANCOCK LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY (U.S.A.), a Michigan corporation, successor by merger to John Hancock Life Insurance Company, a Massachusetts corporation (Lender), and Bank of America, N.A. (Bank) with respect to the following:
A. Bank has established and maintained for Lighthouse Real Estate Management LLC, as agent for the Company, an address at P.O. Box 24193, Newark, NJ 07189-0001 (the Lockbox Address) and deposit account number 483006513299 (the Account), which Account was subject to that certain Deposit Account Control Agreement dated February 25, 2008 by and among the Company and certain affiliates of the Company, Lender and the Bank (Original Agreement). Company has decided to terminate Lighthouse Real Estate Management LLC as its agent and to name GTJ Management, LLC as its new agent and in that regard the Account has been transferred to, and is now in the name of, GTJ Management, LLC, as agent for the Company (herein referred to in its capacity as agent GTJ). It is the intention of the parties hereto that this Agreement shall supersede and replace the Original Agreement.
B. The Bank performs the services described in Exhibit A, which include receiving mail at the Lockbox Address, processing it and depositing checks and other payment instructions (Checks) into the Account (the Lockbox Service).
C. GTJ and Company have assigned to Lender a security interest in the Account and in Checks mailed to the Lockbox Address.
D. GTJ, Company, Lender and Bank are entering into this Agreement to evidence Lenders security interest in the Account and such Checks and to provide for the disposition of net proceeds of Checks deposited in the Account.
Accordingly, Company, Lender and Bank agree as follows :
1. (a) This Agreement evidences Lenders control over the Account. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the agreement among Bank, GTJ and Company governing the Account, Bank will comply with instructions originated by Lender as set forth herein directing the disposition of funds in the Account without further consent of the GTJ or Company.
(b) Each of GTJ and Company represents and warrants to Lender and Bank that it has not assigned or granted a security interest in the Account or any Check deposited in the Account, except to Lender.
(c) Each of GTJ and Company will not permit the Account to become subject to any other pledge, assignment, lien, charge or encumbrance of any kind, other than Lenders security interest referred to herein.
(d) The Account may receive merchant card deposits and chargebacks. Each of GTJ and Company acknowledges and agrees that during the Activation Period (defined below), chargebacks will be blocked from debiting the Account.
2. During the Activation Period (as defined below), Bank shall prevent GTJ and Company from making any withdrawals from the Account. Prior to the Activation Period, GTJ and Company may operate and transact business through the Account in their normal fashion, including making withdrawals from the Account, but each of GTJ and Company covenants to Lender it will not close the Account. Bank shall have no liability in the event either GTJ or Company breaches this covenant to Lender.
A reasonable period of time following the commencement of the Activation Period, and continuing on each Business Day thereafter, Bank shall transfer all available balances in the Account to Lender at its account specified in the Notice (as defined below). The Activation Period means the period which commences within a reasonable period of time not to exceed two Business Days after Banks receipt of a written notice from Lender in the form of Exhibit B (the Notice). A Business Day is each day except Saturdays, Sundays and Bank holidays. Funds are not available if, in the reasonable determination of Bank, they are subject to a hold, dispute or legal process preventing their withdrawal.
3. Bank agrees it shall not offset, charge, deduct or otherwise withdraw funds from the Account, except as permitted by Section 4, until it has been advised in writing by Lender that all of GTJs and Companys obligations that are secured by the Checks and the Account are paid in full. Lender shall notify Bank promptly in writing upon payment in full of GTJs and Companys obligations by means of a letter substantially in the form of the Termination Notice (defined below).
4. Bank is permitted to charge the Account:
(a) for its fees and charges relating to the Account or associated with the Lockbox Service and this Agreement; and
(b) in the event any Check deposited into the Account is returned unpaid for any reason or for any breach of warranty claim; and
(c) for any ACH credit entries that may have been originated by GTJ or Company but that have not settled at the time of the commencement of the Activation Period, or for any entries, whether debit or credit, that are subsequently returned thereafter.
5. (a) If the balances in the Account are not sufficient to compensate Bank for any fees or charges due Bank in connection with the Account, the Lockbox Service or this Agreement, each of GTJ and Company agrees to pay Bank on demand the amount due Bank. Each of GTJ and Company will have breached this Agreement if it has not paid Bank, within five days after such demand, the amount due Bank.
(b) If the balances in the Account are not sufficient to compensate Bank for any returned Check, each of GTJ and Company agrees to pay Bank on demand the amount due Bank. If each of GTJ and Company fails to so pay Bank immediately upon demand, Lender agrees to pay Bank within five days after Banks demand to Lender to pay any amount received by Lender with respect to such returned Check. The failure to so pay Bank shall constitute a breach of this Agreement.
(c) Each of GTJ and Company hereby authorizes Bank, without prior notice, from time to time to debit any other account GTJ and Company may have with Bank for the amount or amounts due Bank under subsection 5(a) or 5(b).
6. (a) Each Business Day, Bank will send any Checks not processed in accordance with the Lockbox Service set-up documents as well as any other materials, such as invoices, received at the Lockbox Address plus information regarding the deposit for the day to the address specified below for GTJ and Company or as otherwise specified in writing by GTJ and Company to Bank, and will send a copy of the deposit advice to the address specified below for Lender.
(b) In addition to the original Bank statement provided to GTJ and Company, Bank will provide Lender with a duplicate of such statement.
7. (a) Bank will not be liable to GTJ, Company or Lender for any expense, claim, loss, damage or cost (Damages) arising out of or relating to its performance under this Agreement other than those Damages which result directly from its acts or omissions constituting negligence or intentional misconduct.
(b) In no event will Bank be liable for any special, indirect, exemplary or consequential damages, including but not limited to lost profits.
(c) Bank will be excused from failing to act or delay in acting, and no such failure or delay shall constitute a breach of this Agreement or otherwise give rise to any liability of Bank, if (i) such failure or delay is caused by circumstances beyond Banks reasonable control, including but not limited to legal constraint, emergency conditions, action or inaction of governmental, civil or military authority, fire, strike, lockout or other labor dispute, war, riot, theft, flood, earthquake or other natural disaster, breakdown of public or private or common carrier communications or transmission facilities, equipment failure, or negligence or default of GTJ, Company or Lender or (ii) such failure or delay resulted from Banks reasonable belief that the action would have violated any guideline, rule or regulation of any governmental authority.
(d) Bank shall have no duty to inquire or determine whether GTJs or Companys obligations to Lender are in default or whether Lender is entitled to provide the Notice to Bank. Bank may rely on notices and communications it believes in good faith to be genuine and given by the appropriate party.
(e) Notwithstanding any of the other provisions in this Agreement, in the event of the commencement of a case pursuant to Title 11, United States Code, filed by or against GTJ or Company, or in the event of the commencement of any similar case under then applicable federal or state law providing for the relief of debtors or the protection of creditors by or against GTJ or Company, Bank may act as Bank deems necessary to comply with all applicable provisions of governing statutes and shall not be in violation of this Agreement as a result.
(f) Bank shall be permitted to comply with any writ, levy order or other similar judicial or regulatory order or process concerning the Lockbox Address, the Account or any Check and shall not be in violation of this Agreement for so doing.
8. (a) Each of GTJ and Company shall indemnify Bank against, and hold it harmless from, any and all liabilities, claims, costs, expenses and damages of any nature (including but not limited to allocated costs of staff counsel, other reasonable attorneys fees and any fees and expenses) in any way arising out of or relating to disputes or legal actions concerning Banks provision of the services described in this Agreement. This section does not apply to any cost or damage attributable to the gross negligence or intentional misconduct of Bank. Each of GTJs and Companys obligations under this section shall survive termination of this Agreement.
(b) Lender hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless Bank against any loss, liability or expense (including but not limited to allocated costs of staff counsel, other reasonable attorneys fees and any fees and expenses) arising from Bank complying with any written instructions of Lender pursuant to this Agreement other than if related to Banks gross negligence, bad faith, or willful misconduct. Lenders obligations under this section shall survive termination of this Agreement.
9. (a) Each of GTJ and Company shall pay to Bank, upon receipt of Banks invoice, all costs, expenses and attorneys fees (including allocated costs for in-house legal services) incurred by Bank in connection with the enforcement of this Agreement and any instrument or agreement required hereunder, including but not limited to any such costs, expenses and fees arising out of the resolution of any conflict, dispute, motion regarding entitlement to rights or rights of action, or other action to enforce Banks rights in a case arising under Title 11, United States Code. Each of GTJ and Company agrees to pay Bank, upon receipt of Banks invoice, all costs, expenses and attorneys fees (including allocated costs for in-house legal services) incurred by Bank in the preparation and administration of this Agreement (including any amendments hereto or instruments or agreements required hereunder).
(b) Lender shall pay to Bank, upon receipt of Banks invoice, all costs, expenses and attorneys fees (including allocated costs for in-house legal services) incurred by Bank in connection with the enforcement against Lender of this Agreement and any instrument or agreement required hereunder to the extent that Bank is the prevailing party in such enforcement action.
10. Termination and Assignment of this Agreement shall be as follows:
(a) Lender may terminate this Agreement by providing notice to GTJ, Company and Bank that all of GTJs and Companys obligations which are secured by Checks and the Account are paid in full. Lender may also terminate or it may assign this Agreement upon 30 days prior written notice to GTJ, Company, and Bank. Bank may terminate this Agreement upon 30 days prior written notice to GTJ, Company and Lender. Neither GTJ nor Company may terminate this Agreement or the Lockbox Service except with the written consent of Lender and upon prior written notice to Bank.

EXHIBIT A
TO DEPOSIT ACCOUNT CONTROL AGREEMENT
STANDARD TERMS AND CONDITIONS
The Lockbox Service involves processing Checks that are received at a Lockbox Address. With this Service, Company instructs its customers to mail checks it wants to have processed under the Service to the Lockbox Address. Bank picks up mail at the Lockbox Address according to its mail pick-up schedule. Bank will have unrestricted and exclusive access to the mail directed to the Lockbox Address. Bank will provide Company with the Lockbox Service for a Lockbox Address when Company has completed and Bank has received Banks then current set-up documents for the Lockbox Address.
If Bank receives any mail containing Companys lockbox number at Banks lockbox operations location (instead of the Lockbox Address), Bank may handle the mail as if it had been received at the Lockbox Address.
PROCESSING
Bank will handle Checks received at the Lockbox Address according to the applicable deposit account agreement, as if the Checks were delivered by Company to Bank for deposit to the Account, except as modified by these Terms and Conditions.
Bank will open the envelopes picked up from the Lockbox Address and remove the contents. For the Lockbox Address, Checks and other documents contained in the envelopes will be inspected and handled in the manner specified in the Companys set-up documents. Bank captures and reports information related to the lockbox processing, where available, if Company has specified this option in the set-up documents. Bank will endorse all Checks Bank processes on Companys behalf.
If Bank processes an unsigned check as instructed in the set-up documents, and the check is paid, but the account owner does not authorize payment, Company agrees to indemnify Bank, the drawee bank (which may include Bank) and any intervening collecting bank for any liability or expense incurred by such indemnitee due to the payment and collection of the check.
If Company instructs Bank not to process a check bearing a handwritten or typed notation Payment in Full or words of similar import on the face of the check, Company understands that Bank has adopted procedures designed to detect Checks bearing such notations; however, Bank will not be liable to Company or any other party for losses suffered if Bank fails to detect Checks bearing such notations.
RETURNED CHECK
Unless Company and Bank agree to another processing procedure, Bank will reclear a Check once which has been returned and marked Refer to Maker, Not Sufficient Funds or Uncollected Funds. If the Check is returned for any other reason or if the Check is returned a second time, Bank will debit the Account and return the Check to Company. Company agrees that Bank will not send a returned item notice to Company for a returned Check unless Company and Bank have agreed otherwise.
ACCEPTABLE PAYEES
For the Lockbox Address, Company will provide to Bank the names of Acceptable Payees (Acceptable Payee means Companys name and any other payee name provided to Bank by Company as an acceptable payee for Checks to be processed under the Lockbox Service). Bank will process a check only if it is made payable to an Acceptable Payee and if the check is otherwise processable. Company warrants that each Acceptable Payee is either (i) a variation of Companys name or (ii) is an affiliate of Company which has authorized Checks payable to it to be credited to the Account. Bank may treat as an Acceptable Payee any variation of any Acceptable Payees name that Bank deems to be reasonable.
CHANGES TO PROCESSING INSTRUCTIONS
Company may request Bank orally or in writing to make changes to the processing instructions (including changes to Acceptable Payees) for any Lockbox Address by contacting its Bank representative, so long as such changes do not conflict with the terms of the Deposit Account Control Agreement. Bank will not be obligated to implement any requested changes until Bank has actually received the requests and had a reasonable opportunity to act upon them. In making changes, Bank is entitled to rely on instructions purporting to be from Company.

(each individually a Company, and collectively, Company), JOHN HANCOCK LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY (U.S.A.), a Michigan corporation, successor by merger to John Hancock Life Insurance Company, a Massachusetts corporation (Lender), and Bank of America, N.A. (Bank) with respect to the following:
A. Bank has established and maintained for Lighthouse Real Estate Management LLC, as agent for the Company, an address at P.O. Box 24204, Newark, NJ 07189-0001 (the Lockbox Address) and deposit account number 483006513309 (the Account), which Account was subject to that certain Deposit Account Control Agreement dated February 25, 2008 by and among the Company and certain affiliates of the Company, Lender and the Bank (Original Agreement). Company has decided to terminate Lighthouse Real Estate Management LLC as its agent and to name GTJ Management, LLC as its new agent and in that regard the Account has been transferred to, and is now in the name of, GTJ Management, LLC, as agent for the Company (herein referred to in its capacity as agent GTJ). It is the intention of the parties hereto that this Agreement shall supersede and replace the Original Agreement.
B. The Bank performs the services described in Exhibit A, which include receiving mail at the Lockbox Address, processing it and depositing checks and other payment instructions (Checks) into the Account (the Lockbox Service).
C. GTJ and Company have assigned to Lender a security interest in the Account and in Checks mailed to the Lockbox Address.
D. GTJ, Company, Lender and Bank are entering into this Agreement to evidence Lenders security interest in the Account and such Checks and to provide for the disposition of net proceeds of Checks deposited in the Account.
Accordingly, Company, Lender and Bank agree as follows :
1. (a) This Agreement evidences Lenders control over the Account. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the agreement among Bank, GTJ and Company governing the Account, Bank will comply with instructions originated by Lender as set forth herein directing the disposition of funds in the Account without further consent of the GTJ or Company.
(b) Each of GTJ and Company represents and warrants to Lender and Bank that it has not assigned or granted a security interest in the Account or any Check deposited in the Account, except to Lender.
(c) Each of GTJ and Company will not permit the Account to become subject to any other pledge, assignment, lien, charge or encumbrance of any kind, other than Lenders security interest referred to herein.
(d) The Account may receive merchant card deposits and chargebacks. Each of GTJ and Company acknowledges and agrees that during the Activation Period (defined below), chargebacks will be blocked from debiting the Account.
2. During the Activation Period (as defined below), Bank shall prevent GTJ and Company from making any withdrawals from the Account. Prior to the Activation Period, GTJ and Company may operate and transact business through the Account in their normal fashion, including making withdrawals from the Account, but each of GTJ and Company covenants to Lender it will not close the Account. Bank shall have no liability in the event either GTJ or Company breaches this covenant to Lender.
A reasonable period of time following the commencement of the Activation Period, and continuing on each Business Day thereafter, Bank shall transfer all available balances in the Account to Lender at its account specified in the Notice (as defined below). The Activation Period means the period which commences within a reasonable period of time not to exceed two Business Days after Banks receipt of a written notice from Lender in the form of Exhibit B (the Notice). A Business Day is each day except Saturdays, Sundays and Bank holidays. Funds are not available if, in the reasonable determination of Bank, they are subject to a hold, dispute or legal process preventing their withdrawal.
3. Bank agrees it shall not offset, charge, deduct or otherwise withdraw funds from the Account, except as permitted by Section 4, until it has been advised in writing by Lender that all of GTJs and Companys obligations that are secured by the Checks and the Account are paid in full. Lender shall notify Bank promptly in writing upon payment in full of GTJs and Companys obligations by means of a letter substantially in the form of the Termination Notice (defined below).
4. Bank is permitted to charge the Account:
(a) for its fees and charges relating to the Account or associated with the Lockbox Service and this Agreement; and
(b) in the event any Check deposited into the Account is returned unpaid for any reason or for any breach of warranty claim; and
(c) for any ACH credit entries that may have been originated by GTJ or Company but that have not settled at the time of the commencement of the Activation Period, or for any entries, whether debit or credit, that are subsequently returned thereafter.
5. (a) If the balances in the Account are not sufficient to compensate Bank for any fees or charges due Bank in connection with the Account, the Lockbox Service or this Agreement, each of GTJ and Company agrees to pay Bank on demand the amount due Bank. Each of GTJ and Company will have breached this Agreement if it has not paid Bank, within five days after such demand, the amount due Bank.
(b) If the balances in the Account are not sufficient to compensate Bank for any returned Check, each of GTJ and Company agrees to pay Bank on demand the amount due Bank. If each of GTJ and Company fails to so pay Bank immediately upon demand, Lender agrees to pay Bank within five days after Banks demand to Lender to pay any amount received by Lender with respect to such returned Check. The failure to so pay Bank shall constitute a breach of this Agreement.
(c) Each of GTJ and Company hereby authorizes Bank, without prior notice, from time to time to debit any other account GTJ and Company may have with Bank for the amount or amounts due Bank under subsection 5(a) or 5(b).
6. (a) Each Business Day, Bank will send any Checks not processed in accordance with the Lockbox Service set-up documents as well as any other materials, such as invoices, received at the Lockbox Address plus information regarding the deposit for the day to the address specified below for GTJ and Company or as otherwise specified in writing by GTJ and Company to Bank, and will send a copy of the deposit advice to the address specified below for Lender.
(b) In addition to the original Bank statement provided to GTJ and Company, Bank will provide Lender with a duplicate of such statement.
7. (a) Bank will not be liable to GTJ, Company or Lender for any expense, claim, loss, damage or cost (Damages) arising out of or relating to its performance under this Agreement other than those Damages which result directly from its acts or omissions constituting negligence or intentional misconduct.
(b) In no event will Bank be liable for any special, indirect, exemplary or consequential damages, including but not limited to lost profits.
(c) Bank will be excused from failing to act or delay in acting, and no such failure or delay shall constitute a breach of this Agreement or otherwise give rise to any liability of Bank, if (i) such failure or delay is caused by circumstances beyond Banks reasonable control, including but not limited to legal constraint, emergency conditions, action or inaction of governmental, civil or military authority, fire, strike, lockout or other labor dispute, war, riot, theft, flood, earthquake or other natural disaster, breakdown of public or private or common carrier communications or transmission facilities, equipment failure, or negligence or default of GTJ, Company or Lender or (ii) such failure or delay resulted from Banks reasonable belief that the action would have violated any guideline, rule or regulation of any governmental authority.
(d) Bank shall have no duty to inquire or determine whether GTJs or Companys obligations to Lender are in default or whether Lender is entitled to provide the Notice to Bank. Bank may rely on notices and communications it believes in good faith to be genuine and given by the appropriate party.
(e) Notwithstanding any of the other provisions in this Agreement, in the event of the commencement of a case pursuant to Title 11, United States Code, filed by or against GTJ or Company, or in the event of the commencement of any similar case under then applicable federal or state law providing for the relief of debtors or the protection of creditors by or against GTJ or Company, Bank may act as Bank deems necessary to comply with all applicable provisions of governing statutes and shall not be in violation of this Agreement as a result.
(f) Bank shall be permitted to comply with any writ, levy order or other similar judicial or regulatory order or process concerning the Lockbox Address, the Account or any Check and shall not be in violation of this Agreement for so doing.
8. (a) Each of GTJ and Company shall indemnify Bank against, and hold it harmless from, any and all liabilities, claims, costs, expenses and damages of any nature (including but not limited to allocated costs of staff counsel, other reasonable attorneys fees and any fees and expenses) in any way arising out of or relating to disputes or legal actions concerning Banks provision of the services described in this Agreement.

Each of GTJs and Companys obligations under this section shall survive termination of this Agreement.
(b) Lender hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless Bank against any loss, liability or expense (including but not limited to allocated costs of staff counsel, other reasonable attorneys fees and any fees and expenses) arising from Bank complying with any written instructions of Lender pursuant to this Agreement other than if related to Banks gross negligence, bad faith, or willful misconduct. Lenders obligations under this section shall survive termination of this Agreement.
9. (a) Each of GTJ and Company shall pay to Bank, upon receipt of Banks invoice, all costs, expenses and attorneys fees (including allocated costs for in-house legal services) incurred by Bank in connection with the enforcement of this Agreement and any instrument or agreement required hereunder, including but not limited to any such costs, expenses and fees arising out of the resolution of any conflict, dispute, motion regarding entitlement to rights or rights of action, or other action to enforce Banks rights in a case arising under Title 11, United States Code.

EXHIBIT A
TO DEPOSIT ACCOUNT CONTROL AGREEMENT
STANDARD TERMS AND CONDITIONS
The Lockbox Service involves processing Checks that are received at a Lockbox Address. With this Service, Company instructs its customers to mail checks it wants to have processed under the Service to the Lockbox Address. Bank picks up mail at the Lockbox Address according to its mail pick-up schedule. Bank will have unrestricted and exclusive access to the mail directed to the Lockbox Address. Bank will provide Company with the Lockbox Service for a Lockbox Address when Company has completed and Bank has received Banks then current set-up documents for the Lockbox Address.
If Bank receives any mail containing Companys lockbox number at Banks lockbox operations location (instead of the Lockbox Address), Bank may handle the mail as if it had been received at the Lockbox Address.
PROCESSING
Bank will handle Checks received at the Lockbox Address according to the applicable deposit account agreement, as if the Checks were delivered by Company to Bank for deposit to the Account, except as modified by these Terms and Conditions.
Bank will open the envelopes picked up from the Lockbox Address and remove the contents. For the Lockbox Address, Checks and other documents contained in the envelopes will be inspected and handled in the manner specified in the Companys set-up documents. Bank captures and reports information related to the lockbox processing, where available, if Company has specified this option in the set-up documents. Bank will endorse all Checks Bank processes on Companys behalf.
If Bank processes an unsigned check as instructed in the set-up documents, and the check is paid, but the account owner does not authorize payment, Company agrees to indemnify Bank, the drawee bank (which may include Bank) and any intervening collecting bank for any liability or expense incurred by such indemnitee due to the payment and collection of the check.
If Company instructs Bank not to process a check bearing a handwritten or typed notation Payment in Full or words of similar import on the face of the check, Company understands that Bank has adopted procedures designed to detect Checks bearing such notations; however, Bank will not be liable to Company or any other party for losses suffered if Bank fails to detect Checks bearing such notations.
RETURNED CHECK
Unless Company and Bank agree to another processing procedure, Bank will reclear a Check once which has been returned and marked Refer to Maker, Not Sufficient Funds or Uncollected Funds. If the Check is returned for any other reason or if the Check is returned a second time, Bank will debit the Account and return the Check to Company. Company agrees that Bank will not send a returned item notice to Company for a returned Check unless Company and Bank have agreed otherwise.
ACCEPTABLE PAYEES
For the Lockbox Address, Company will provide to Bank the names of Acceptable Payees (Acceptable Payee means Companys name and any other payee name provided to Bank by Company as an acceptable payee for Checks to be processed under the Lockbox Service). Bank will process a check only if it is made payable to an Acceptable Payee and if the check is otherwise processable. Company warrants that each Acceptable Payee is either (i) a variation of Companys name or (ii) is an affiliate of Company which has authorized Checks payable to it to be credited to the Account. Bank may treat as an Acceptable Payee any variation of any Acceptable Payees name that Bank deems to be reasonable.
CHANGES TO PROCESSING INSTRUCTIONS
Company may request Bank orally or in writing to make changes to the processing instructions (including changes to Acceptable Payees) for any Lockbox Address by contacting its Bank representative, so long as such changes do not conflict with the terms of the Deposit Account Control Agreement. Bank will not be obligated to implement any requested changes until Bank has actually received the requests and had a reasonable opportunity to act upon them. In making changes, Bank is entitled to rely on instructions purporting to be from Company.

(each individually a Company, and collectively, Company), JOHN HANCOCK LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY (U.S.A.), a Michigan corporation, successor by merger to John Hancock Life Insurance Company, a Massachusetts corporation (Lender), and Bank of America, N.A. (Bank) with respect to the following:
A. Bank has established and maintained for Lighthouse Real Estate Management LLC, as agent for the Company, an address at P.O. Box 24200, Newark, NJ 07189-0001 (the Lockbox Address) and deposit account number 483006513312 (the Account), which Account was subject to that certain Deposit Account Control Agreement dated February 25, 2008 by and among the Company and certain affiliates of the Company, Lender and the Bank (Original Agreement). Company has decided to terminate Lighthouse Real Estate Management LLC as its agent and to name GTJ Management, LLC as its new agent and in that regard the Account has been transferred to, and is now in the name of, GTJ Management, LLC, as agent for the Company (herein referred to in its capacity as agent GTJ). It is the intention of the parties hereto that this Agreement shall supersede and replace the Original Agreement.
B. The Bank performs the services described in Exhibit A, which include receiving mail at the Lockbox Address, processing it and depositing checks and other payment instructions (Checks) into the Account (the Lockbox Service).
C. GTJ and Company have assigned to Lender a security interest in the Account and in Checks mailed to the Lockbox Address.
D. GTJ, Company, Lender and Bank are entering into this Agreement to evidence Lenders security interest in the Account and such Checks and to provide for the disposition of net proceeds of Checks deposited in the Account.
Accordingly, Company, Lender and Bank agree as follows :
1. (a) This Agreement evidences Lenders control over the Account. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the agreement among Bank, GTJ and Company governing the Account, Bank will comply with instructions originated by Lender as set forth herein directing the disposition of funds in the Account without further consent of the GTJ or Company.
(b) Each of GTJ and Company represents and warrants to Lender and Bank that it has not assigned or granted a security interest in the Account or any Check deposited in the Account, except to Lender.
(c) Each of GTJ and Company will not permit the Account to become subject to any other pledge, assignment, lien, charge or encumbrance of any kind, other than Lenders security interest referred to herein.
(d) The Account may receive merchant card deposits and chargebacks. Each of GTJ and Company acknowledges and agrees that during the Activation Period (defined below), chargebacks will be blocked from debiting the Account.
2. During the Activation Period (as defined below), Bank shall prevent GTJ and Company from making any withdrawals from the Account. Prior to the Activation Period, GTJ and Company may operate and transact business through the Account in their normal fashion, including making withdrawals from the Account, but each of GTJ and Company covenants to Lender it will not close the Account. Bank shall have no liability in the event either GTJ or Company breaches this covenant to Lender.
A reasonable period of time following the commencement of the Activation Period, and continuing on each Business Day thereafter, Bank shall transfer all available balances in the Account to Lender at its account specified in the Notice (as defined below). The Activation Period means the period which commences within a reasonable period of time not to exceed two Business Days after Banks receipt of a written notice from Lender in the form of Exhibit B (the Notice). A Business Day is each day except Saturdays, Sundays and Bank holidays. Funds are not available if, in the reasonable determination of Bank, they are subject to a hold, dispute or legal process preventing their withdrawal.
3. Bank agrees it shall not offset, charge, deduct or otherwise withdraw funds from the Account, except as permitted by Section 4, until it has been advised in writing by Lender that all of GTJs and Companys obligations that are secured by the Checks and the Account are paid in full. Lender shall notify Bank promptly in writing upon payment in full of GTJs and Companys obligations by means of a letter substantially in the form of the Termination Notice (defined below).
4. Bank is permitted to charge the Account:
(a) for its fees and charges relating to the Account or associated with the Lockbox Service and this Agreement; and
(b) in the event any Check deposited into the Account is returned unpaid for any reason or for any breach of warranty claim; and
(c) for any ACH credit entries that may have been originated by GTJ or Company but that have not settled at the time of the commencement of the Activation Period, or for any entries, whether debit or credit, that are subsequently returned thereafter.
5. (a) If the balances in the Account are not sufficient to compensate Bank for any fees or charges due Bank in connection with the Account, the Lockbox Service or this Agreement, each of GTJ and Company agrees to pay Bank on demand the amount due Bank. Each of GTJ and Company will have breached this Agreement if it has not paid Bank, within five days after such demand, the amount due Bank.
(b) If the balances in the Account are not sufficient to compensate Bank for any returned Check, each of GTJ and Company agrees to pay Bank on demand the amount due Bank. If each of GTJ and Company fails to so pay Bank immediately upon demand, Lender agrees to pay Bank within five days after Banks demand to Lender to pay any amount received by Lender with respect to such returned Check. The failure to so pay Bank shall constitute a breach of this Agreement.
(c) Each of GTJ and Company hereby authorizes Bank, without prior notice, from time to time to debit any other account GTJ and Company may have with Bank for the amount or amounts due Bank under subsection 5(a) or 5(b).
6. (a) Each Business Day, Bank will send any Checks not processed in accordance with the Lockbox Service set-up documents as well as any other materials, such as invoices, received at the Lockbox Address plus information regarding the deposit for the day to the address specified below for GTJ and Company or as otherwise specified in writing by GTJ and Company to Bank, and will send a copy of the deposit advice to the address specified below for Lender.
(b) In addition to the original Bank statement provided to GTJ and Company, Bank will provide Lender with a duplicate of such statement.
7. (a) Bank will not be liable to GTJ, Company or Lender for any expense, claim, loss, damage or cost (Damages) arising out of or relating to its performance under this Agreement other than those Damages which result directly from its acts or omissions constituting negligence or intentional misconduct.
(b) In no event will Bank be liable for any special, indirect, exemplary or consequential damages, including but not limited to lost profits.
(c) Bank will be excused from failing to act or delay in acting, and no such failure or delay shall constitute a breach of this Agreement or otherwise give rise to any liability of Bank, if (i) such failure or delay is caused by circumstances beyond Banks reasonable control, including but not limited to legal constraint, emergency conditions, action or inaction of governmental, civil or military authority, fire, strike, lockout or other labor dispute, war, riot, theft, flood, earthquake or other natural disaster, breakdown of public or private or common carrier communications or transmission facilities, equipment failure, or negligence or default of GTJ, Company or Lender or (ii) such failure or delay resulted from Banks reasonable belief that the action would have violated any guideline, rule or regulation of any governmental authority.
(d) Bank shall have no duty to inquire or determine whether GTJs or Companys obligations to Lender are in default or whether Lender is entitled to provide the Notice to Bank. Bank may rely on notices and communications it believes in good faith to be genuine and given by the appropriate party.
(e) Notwithstanding any of the other provisions in this Agreement, in the event of the commencement of a case pursuant to Title 11, United States Code, filed by or against GTJ or Company, or in the event of the commencement of any similar case under then applicable federal or state law providing for the relief of debtors or the protection of creditors by or against GTJ or Company, Bank may act as Bank deems necessary to comply with all applicable provisions of governing statutes and shall not be in violation of this Agreement as a result.
(f) Bank shall be permitted to comply with any writ, levy order or other similar judicial or regulatory order or process concerning the Lockbox Address, the Account or any Check and shall not be in violation of this Agreement for so doing.
8. (a) Each of GTJ and Company shall indemnify Bank against, and hold it harmless from, any and all liabilities, claims, costs, expenses and damages of any nature (including but not limited to allocated costs of staff counsel, other reasonable attorneys fees and any fees and expenses) in any way arising out of or relating to disputes or legal actions concerning Banks provision of the services described in this Agreement. This section does not apply to any cost or damage attributable to the gross negligence or intentional misconduct of Bank. Each of GTJs and Companys obligations under this section shall survive termination of this Agreement.
(b) Lender hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless Bank against any loss, liability or expense (including but not limited to allocated costs of staff counsel, other reasonable attorneys fees and any fees and expenses) arising from Bank complying with any written instructions of Lender pursuant to this Agreement other than if related to Banks gross negligence, bad faith, or willful misconduct.

TO DEPOSIT ACCOUNT CONTROL AGREEMENT
STANDARD TERMS AND CONDITIONS
The Lockbox Service involves processing Checks that are received at a Lockbox Address. With this Service, Company instructs its customers to mail checks it wants to have processed under the Service to the Lockbox Address. Bank picks up mail at the Lockbox Address according to its mail pick-up schedule. Bank will have unrestricted and exclusive access to the mail directed to the Lockbox Address. Bank will provide Company with the Lockbox Service for a Lockbox Address when Company has completed and Bank has received Banks then current set-up documents for the Lockbox Address.
If Bank receives any mail containing Companys lockbox number at Banks lockbox operations location (instead of the Lockbox Address), Bank may handle the mail as if it had been received at the Lockbox Address.
PROCESSING
Bank will handle Checks received at the Lockbox Address according to the applicable deposit account agreement, as if the Checks were delivered by Company to Bank for deposit to the Account, except as modified by these Terms and Conditions.
Bank will open the envelopes picked up from the Lockbox Address and remove the contents. For the Lockbox Address, Checks and other documents contained in the envelopes will be inspected and handled in the manner specified in the Companys set-up documents. Bank captures and reports information related to the lockbox processing, where available, if Company has specified this option in the set-up documents. Bank will endorse all Checks Bank processes on Companys behalf.
If Bank processes an unsigned check as instructed in the set-up documents, and the check is paid, but the account owner does not authorize payment, Company agrees to indemnify Bank, the drawee bank (which may include Bank) and any intervening collecting bank for any liability or expense incurred by such indemnitee due to the payment and collection of the check.
If Company instructs Bank not to process a check bearing a handwritten or typed notation Payment in Full or words of similar import on the face of the check, Company understands that Bank has adopted procedures designed to detect Checks bearing such notations; however, Bank will not be liable to Company or any other party for losses suffered if Bank fails to detect Checks bearing such notations.
RETURNED CHECK
Unless Company and Bank agree to another processing procedure, Bank will reclear a Check once which has been returned and marked Refer to Maker, Not Sufficient Funds or Uncollected Funds. If the Check is returned for any other reason or if the Check is returned a second time, Bank will debit the Account and return the Check to Company. Company agrees that Bank will not send a returned item notice to Company for a returned Check unless Company and Bank have agreed otherwise.
ACCEPTABLE PAYEES
For the Lockbox Address, Company will provide to Bank the names of Acceptable Payees (Acceptable Payee means Companys name and any other payee name provided to Bank by Company as an acceptable payee for Checks to be processed under the Lockbox Service). Bank will process a check only if it is made payable to an Acceptable Payee and if the check is otherwise processable. Company warrants that each Acceptable Payee is either (i) a variation of Companys name or (ii) is an affiliate of Company which has authorized Checks payable to it to be credited to the Account. Bank may treat as an Acceptable Payee any variation of any Acceptable Payees name that Bank deems to be reasonable.
CHANGES TO PROCESSING INSTRUCTIONS
Company may request Bank orally or in writing to make changes to the processing instructions (including changes to Acceptable Payees) for any Lockbox Address by contacting its Bank representative, so long as such changes do not conflict with the terms of the Deposit Account Control Agreement. Bank will not be obligated to implement any requested changes until Bank has actually received the requests and had a reasonable opportunity to act upon them. In making changes, Bank is entitled to rely on instructions purporting to be from Company.

(e) that neither the execution nor the delivery of this Guaranty nor the fulfillment and compliance with the provisions hereof will conflict with, result in a breach of, constitute a default under or result in the creation of any lien, charge, or encumbrance upon any property or assets of Guarantor under any Loan Document or any agreement or instrument to which Guarantor is now a party or by which it may be bound; and
(f) all of the Recitals set forth above are true, correct and complete.

It is the intent of Guarantor and Lender that such obligations and liabilities hereunder are primary, absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances and that, until the Non-Recourse Carveout Obligations are fully and finally satisfied, such obligations and liabilities shall not be discharged or released, in whole or in part, by any act or occurrence which, but for this Paragraph 4, might be deemed a legal or equitable discharge or release of Guarantor.
5. Remedies Cumulative . Guarantor hereby agrees with Lender that all rights, remedies and recourses afforded to Lender by reason of this Guaranty or otherwise are (a) separate and cumulative and may be pursued separately, successively or concurrently, as occasion therefor shall arise, and (b) non-exclusive and shall in no way limit or prejudice any other legal or equitable right, remedy or recourse which Lender may have.

If, for any reason whatsoever, Borrower now is or hereafter becomes indebted to Guarantor, such indebtedness and all interest thereon, shall, at all times, be subordinate in all respects to the Loan Documents, and Guarantor shall not be entitled to enforce or receive payment thereof until the Non-Recourse Carveout Obligations have been fully satisfied. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Guaranty or any payments made by Guarantor hereunder, Guarantor shall not have any right of subrogation in or under the Loan Documents or to participate in any way therein or in any right, title or interest in and to any mortgaged property or any collateral for the Loan, all such rights of subrogation and participation, together with any other contractual, statutory or common law right which Guarantor may have to be reimbursed for any payments Guarantor may make to Lender pursuant to this Guaranty, being hereby expressly waived and released.
7. Severability . If any provision of this Guaranty or the application thereof to any person or circumstance, for any reason and to any extent, shall be invalid or unenforceable, neither the remainder of this Guaranty nor the application of such provision to any other persons or circumstances shall be affected thereby, but rather the same shall be enforced to the greatest extent permitted by law.
8. Successors and Assigns . This Guaranty and all the terms, provisions and conditions hereof shall be binding upon Guarantor and the Guarantors heirs, legal representatives, successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of Lender, its successors and assigns and all subsequent holders of the Note.

In the event that Lender must rescind or restore any payment received by Lender in satisfaction of the Non-Recourse Carveout Obligations, as set forth herein, any prior release or discharge of the terms of this Guaranty given to Guarantor by Lender shall be without effect and this Guaranty shall remain in full force and effect.

C. As set forth in the Amendment, each Guarantor is an owner of a direct or indirect ownership interest in Borrower, and each Guarantor will directly benefit from Lender consenting to the transactions contemplated in the Amendment.
D. Section 19 of the Note sets forth certain amounts, obligations and other liabilities for which Borrower is fully liable to Lender (the Non-Recourse Carveout Obligations ), notwithstanding limitations on Borrowers liability pursuant to said Section 19 of the Note;
E. As a condition to consenting to the transaction contemplated in the Amendment, Lender has required that Guarantor guarantee the payment of the Non-Recourse Carveout Obligations and performance of the obligations set forth in Section 1 below (the Guaranteed Obligations ).
AGREEMENT:
NOW, THEREFORE , as a material inducement to Lender to consent to the transaction contemplated in the Amendment, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Guarantor hereby does irrevocably and unconditionally warrant and represent unto and covenant with Lender as follows:
1. Guaranty . Guarantor hereby (a) guarantees unto Lender the full and timely payment of the amounts due, or to become due, to Lender under the Non-Recourse Carveout Obligations and (b) agrees with Lender to pay to Lender (i) the amounts due under the Non-Recourse Carveout Obligations within five (5) days from the date Lender notifies Guarantor of Borrowers failure to pay the same, if and when the same becomes due, and at the place specified in the Note for payment and (ii) Lenders reasonable attorneys fees and all court costs incurred by Lender in enforcing or protecting any of Lenders rights, remedies or recourses hereunder. Guarantor is not hereby guaranteeing payment of any portion of the indebtedness or performance of any portion of the obligations under the Loan Documents, as defined in the Loan Agreement (the Loan Documents ), other than the Non-Recourse Carveout Obligations.
2. Guarantors Representations and Warranties . Guarantor hereby warrants and represents unto Lender as follows:
(a) that this Guaranty constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of Guarantor and is fully enforceable against Guarantor in accordance with its terms;
(b) Guarantor is solvent and the execution of this Guaranty does not render Guarantor insolvent. Any and all financial statements, balance sheets, net worth statements and other financial data which have heretofore been furnished to Lender with respect to Guarantor fairly and accurately present the financial condition of Guarantor as of the date they were furnished to Lender and, since that date, there has been no material adverse change in the financial condition of Guarantor;
(c) that there are no legal proceedings or material claims or demands pending against or, to the best of Guarantors knowledge threatened against, Guarantor or any of its assets, which could affect Guarantors ability to perform under this Guaranty;
(d) that the execution and delivery of this Guaranty and the assumption of liability hereunder have been in all respects authorized and approved by Guarantor; Guarantor has full authority and power to execute this Guaranty and to perform its obligations hereunder;
(e) that neither the execution nor the delivery of this Guaranty nor the fulfillment and compliance with the provisions hereof will conflict with, result in a breach of, constitute a default under or result in the creation of any lien, charge, or encumbrance upon any property or assets of Guarantor under any Loan Document or any agreement or instrument to which Guarantor is now a party or by which it may be bound; and
(f) all of the Recitals set forth above are true, correct and complete.
3. Waiver . Guarantor hereby waives (a) all notices of acceptance hereof, protest, demand and dishonor, presentment, notice of nonpayment, notice of intention to accelerate maturity, notice of acceleration of maturity and all notices and demands of any kind now or hereafter provided for by any statute or rule of law other than the five (5) day notice referred to in Paragraph 1 above, (b) any and all requirements that Lender institute any action or proceeding, or exhaust or attempt to enforce any or all of Lenders right, remedies or recourses against Borrower or anyone else or in respect of any mortgaged property or collateral covered by any Loan Documents, or join Borrower or any other persons liable on the Non-Recourse Carveout Obligations in any action to enforce this Guaranty as a condition precedent to bringing an action against Guarantor upon this Guaranty, it being expressly agreed that the liability of Guarantor hereunder shall be primary and not secondary, (c) any defense arising by reason of any disability, insolvency, lack of authority or power, death, insanity, minority, dissolution or any other defense of Borrower, or any other surety, co-maker, endorser or guarantor of the Non-Recourse Carveout Obligations (even though rendering same void, unenforceable or otherwise uncollectible), it being agreed that Guarantor shall remain liable hereon regardless of whether Borrower or any other such person be found not liable thereon for any reason, (d) all suretyship defenses of every kind and nature and (e) any claim Guarantor might otherwise have against Lender by virtue of Lenders invocation of any right, remedy or recourse permitted it hereunder or under the Loan Documents. This is a guaranty of payment and not a guaranty of collection.
4. Subsequent Acts . Guarantor hereby agrees with Lender that (a) the payments called for and provisions contained in the Loan Documents, including specifically (but without limitation) the Note, may be renewed, extended, rearranged, modified, released or canceled, (b) all or any part of any mortgaged property and collateral for the indebtedness may be released from, and any new or additional security may be added to, the lien and security interest of the Loan Documents, (c) any additional parties who may become personally liable for repayment of the Note may hereafter be released from their liability hereunder and thereon and (d) Lender may take, or delay in taking or refuse to take, any and all action with reference to the Note and the other Loan Documents (regardless of whether same might vary the risk or alter the rights, remedies or recourses of Guarantor), including specifically (but without limitation) the settlement or compromise of any amount allegedly due thereunder, all without notice or consideration to or the consent of Guarantor, and no such acts shall in any way release, diminish or affect the absolute nature of Guarantors obligations and liabilities hereunder.
It is the intent of Guarantor and Lender that such obligations and liabilities hereunder are primary, absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances and that, until the Non-Recourse Carveout Obligations are fully and finally satisfied, such obligations and liabilities shall not be discharged or released, in whole or in part, by any act or occurrence which, but for this Paragraph 4, might be deemed a legal or equitable discharge or release of Guarantor.
5. Remedies Cumulative . Guarantor hereby agrees with Lender that all rights, remedies and recourses afforded to Lender by reason of this Guaranty or otherwise are (a) separate and cumulative and may be pursued separately, successively or concurrently, as occasion therefor shall arise, and (b) non-exclusive and shall in no way limit or prejudice any other legal or equitable right, remedy or recourse which Lender may have.
6. Subordination and No Subrogation . If, for any reason whatsoever, Borrower now is or hereafter becomes indebted to Guarantor, such indebtedness and all interest thereon, shall, at all times, be subordinate in all respects to the Loan Documents, and Guarantor shall not be entitled to enforce or receive payment thereof until the Non-Recourse Carveout Obligations have been fully satisfied. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Guaranty or any payments made by Guarantor hereunder, Guarantor shall not have any right of subrogation in or under the Loan Documents or to participate in any way therein or in any right, title or interest in and to any mortgaged property or any collateral for the Loan, all such rights of subrogation and participation, together with any other contractual, statutory or common law right which Guarantor may have to be reimbursed for any payments Guarantor may make to Lender pursuant to this Guaranty, being hereby expressly waived and released.
7. Severability . If any provision of this Guaranty or the application thereof to any person or circumstance, for any reason and to any extent, shall be invalid or unenforceable, neither the remainder of this Guaranty nor the application of such provision to any other persons or circumstances shall be affected thereby, but rather the same shall be enforced to the greatest extent permitted by law.
8. Successors and Assigns . This Guaranty and all the terms, provisions and conditions hereof shall be binding upon Guarantor and the Guarantors heirs, legal representatives, successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of Lender, its successors and assigns and all subsequent holders of the Note.
9. Paragraph Headings . The paragraph headings inserted in this Guaranty have been included for convenience only and are not intended, and shall not be construed, to limit or define in any way the substance of any paragraph contained herein.
10. Effect of Bankruptcy . This Guaranty shall continue to be effective or reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment to Lender of all or any part of the Non-Recourse Carveout Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or refunded by Lender pursuant to any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization, receivership or other debtor relief proceeding involving Borrower.
In the event that Lender must rescind or restore any payment received by Lender in satisfaction of the Non-Recourse Carveout Obligations, as set forth herein, any prior release or discharge of the terms of this Guaranty given to Guarantor by Lender shall be without effect and this Guaranty shall remain in full force and effect.

WHEREAS , as set forth in the Amendment, each Guarantor is an owner of a direct or indirect ownership interest in Borrower, and each Guarantor will directly benefit from Mortgagee consenting to the transactions contemplated in the Amendment;
WHEREAS , Mortgagee is unwilling to consent to the transaction contemplated in the Amendment unless Indemnitor agrees to indemnify and hold Mortgagee harmless from and against certain matters;
WHEREAS, Indemnitor desires to give such an indemnification to Mortgagee in order to induce Mortgagee to consent to the transactions contemplated in the Amendment; and
WHEREAS , Indemnitor has full authority and power to execute and deliver this Indemnification Agreement.
NOW, THEREFORE, for the purpose of inducing Mortgagee to consent to the transaction contemplated by the Amendment, which Indemnitor acknowledges is good, valuable, and sufficient consideration, Indemnitor hereby agrees as follows:
1. Indemnities .
(a) Notwithstanding any provisions in the Loan Documents, as defined in the Loan Agreement (the Loan Documents ) limiting or negating Indemnitors personal liability, Indemnitor agrees to unconditionally and absolutely indemnify and hold Mortgagee (as defined in Section 12 hereof), its officers, directors, policyholders, employees, agents and attorneys harmless from and against any documented loss, cost, liability, damage, claim or expense, including attorneys fees, actually suffered or incurred by Mortgagee in connection with the Mortgaged Property at any time, whether before, during or after enforcement of Mortgagees rights and remedies upon default under the Loan Documents, under or on account of, or as a result of (i) any Environmental Laws, as that term is defined in Section 14 hereof, including, without limitation the Transfer Act (ii) any presence, release, or threat of release of Hazardous Materials, as defined in Section 14 hereof, at, upon, under or within the Mortgaged Property, (iii) the presence of asbestos or asbestos-containing materials, PCBs, radon gas, urea formaldehyde foam insulation or lead (whether in paint, water, soil, or plaster) at the Mortgaged Property, (iv) any breach of the covenants and warranties made in Section 2 hereof or in Section 3.9 of the Loan Agreement or in that certain Environmental Certificate (the Environmental Certificate ) executed in connection with Original Borrowers application for the Loan, (v) the falsity of any of the representations made in Section 2 hereof or in Section 3.9 of the Loan Agreement or in the Environmental Certificate, whether or not caused by Indemnitor, (vi) any violation of the Form III filings, or (vii) the failure of Indemnitor to duly perform the obligations or actions set forth in Section 2 hereof and in Section 3.9 and Section 3.10 of the Loan Agreement, including, without limitation, for all parts of this subsection 1(a), with respect to: (A) the imposition by any governmental authority of any lien upon the Mortgaged Property, (B) clean-up costs, (C) liability for personal injury or property damage or damage to the environment, (D) any diminution in the value of the Mortgaged Property and (E) fines, penalties and punitive damages.
(b) Indemnitor further agrees that Mortgagee shall not assume any liability or obligation for loss, damage, fines, penalties, claims or duty to clean up or dispose of wastes or materials on or relating to the Mortgaged Property as a result of any conveyance of title to the Mortgaged Property to the Mortgagee or otherwise or as a result of any documented inspections or any other actions made or taken by Mortgagee on the Mortgaged Property. Indemnitor agrees to remain fully liable and shall indemnify and hold harmless Mortgagee from any documented costs, expenses, clean-up costs, waste disposal costs, litigation costs, fines and penalties, including without limitation any costs, expenses, penalties and fines within the meaning of any Environmental Laws.
(c) Indemnitor shall assume the burden and expense of defending Mortgagee, with counsel satisfactory to Mortgagee, against all legal and administrative proceedings arising out of the occurrences set forth in this Indemnification Agreement. Mortgagee shall have the right, but not the obligation, to participate in the defense of any such proceedings. Indemnitor may compromise or settle any such proceedings without the consent of Mortgagee only if the claimant agrees as part of the compromise or settlement that Mortgagee shall have no responsibility or liability for the payment or discharge of any amount agreed upon or obligation to take any other action.
(d) Indemnitor shall pay when due any judgments against Mortgagee which have been indemnified under this Indemnification Agreement and which are rendered by a final order or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction from which no further appeal may be taken or has been taken within the applicable appeal period. In the event that such payment is not made, Mortgagee, in its sole discretion, may pay any such judgments, in whole or in part, and look to Indemnitor for reimbursement pursuant to this Indemnification Agreement, or may proceed to file suit against Indemnitor to compel such payment.
(e) It is understood that the presence and/or release of substances referred to in Section 1(a) hereof does not pertain to a presence and/or release which first occurs solely after (A) repayment of the Loan in full accordance with the Loan Documents or (B) acquisition of title to the Mortgaged Property by Mortgagee upon a foreclosure or acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure and surrender of possession and occupancy of the Mortgaged Property by Indemnitor, its agents, affiliates, employees and independent contractors. Indemnitor shall have the burden of proving that the conditions in this subsection (e) were satisfied by clear and convincing evidence and shall continue to defend with counsel satisfactory to Mortgagee and shall indemnify and hold Mortgagee harmless for all matters set forth in Section 1(a) hereof, unless and until a court of competent jurisdiction finds that Indemnitor has met such burden.
2. Indemnitors Representations, Warranties and Covenants . Indemnitor hereby represents, warrants and covenants to and with Mortgagee as follows:

(h) Neither Indemnitor nor the Mortgaged Property (A) has received notice of or is subject to any private or governmental lien or judicial or administrative notice, order or action relating to Hazardous Materials or environmental problems, impairments or liabilities with respect to the Mortgaged Property or such other property or (B) is in or, with any applicable notice or lapse of time or failure to take certain curative or remedial actions, will be in either direct or indirect violation of any Environmental Laws.
(i) Indemnitor shall strictly comply with the requirements of all Environmental Laws affecting the Mortgaged Property.
(j) Indemnitor hereby warrants and represents that Indemnitor has not received any complaint, notice, letter, or other communication from occupants, tenants, guests, employees, licensees or any other person regarding odors, poor indoor quality, Mold, or any activity, condition, event or omission that causes or facilitates the growth of Mold.

Indemnitor shall deliver to Mortgagee any documentation or records as Mortgagee may request and which are susceptible of being obtained by Indemnitor without undue cost or expense and without the necessity for initiating legal proceedings to obtain the same in connection with all such actions, claims, discoveries, notices, inquiries and communications and shall advise Mortgagee of any subsequent developments regarding the same.
7. Payment of Mortgagees Expenses . If Mortgagee retains counsel for advice or other representation (a) in any litigation, contest, dispute, suit, or proceeding (whether instituted by Mortgagee, Indemnitor, or any other party) relating to any of the occurrences for which indemnification is given in this Indemnification Agreement or otherwise relating in any way to this Indemnification Agreement and the indemnities described herein or (b) to enforce Indemnitors obligations hereunder, the attorneys fees arising from such services and all related expenses and court costs shall be paid by Indemnitor upon demand of Mortgagee.
8. No Waiver .
(a) Indemnitors obligations hereunder shall in no way be impaired, reduced or released by reason of (i) Mortgagees omission or delay to exercise any right described herein or (ii) any act or omission of Mortgagee in connection with any notice, demand, warning or claim regarding violations of codes, laws or ordinances governing the Mortgaged Property.
(b) Nothing contained herein shall constitute or be construed as a waiver of any statutory or judicial federal, state or local law which may provide rights or remedies to Mortgagee against Indemnitor or others in connection with any claim relating to the Mortgaged Property and pertaining to the presence and/or release, threatened release, storage, disposal, generating or removal of any Hazardous Materials or to the failure to comply with any Environmental Laws now or hereafter enacted.

WHEREAS , Mortgagee is unwilling to consent to the transaction contemplated in the Amendment unless Indemnitor agrees to indemnify and hold Mortgagee harmless from and against certain matters;
WHEREAS, Indemnitor desires to give such an indemnification to Mortgagee in order to induce Mortgagee to consent to the transactions contemplated in the Amendment; and
WHEREAS , Indemnitor has full authority and power to execute and deliver this Indemnification Agreement.
NOW, THEREFORE, for the purpose of inducing Mortgagee to consent to the transaction contemplated by the Amendment, which Indemnitor acknowledges is good, valuable, and sufficient consideration, Indemnitor hereby agrees as follows:
1. Indemnities .
(a) Notwithstanding any provisions in the Loan Documents, as defined in the Loan Agreement (the Loan Documents ) limiting or negating Indemnitors personal liability, Indemnitor agrees to unconditionally and absolutely indemnify and hold Mortgagee (as defined in Section 12 hereof), its officers, directors, policyholders, employees, agents and attorneys harmless from and against any documented loss, cost, liability, damage, claim or expense, including attorneys fees, actually suffered or incurred by Mortgagee in connection with the Mortgaged Property at any time, whether before, during or after enforcement of Mortgagees rights and remedies upon default under the Loan Documents, under or on account of, or as a result of (i) any Environmental Laws, as that term is defined in Section 14 hereof, including, without limitation ISRA, (ii) any presence, release, or threat of release of Hazardous Materials, as defined in Section 14 hereof, at, upon, under or within the Mortgaged Property, (iii) the presence of asbestos or asbestos-containing materials, PCBs, radon gas, urea formaldehyde foam insulation or lead (whether in paint, water, soil, or plaster) at the Mortgaged Property, (iv) any breach of the covenants and warranties made in Section 2 hereof or in Section 3.9 of the Loan Agreement or in that certain Environmental Certificate (the Environmental Certificate ) executed in connection with Original Borrowers application for the Loan, (v) the falsity of any of the representations made in Section 2 hereof or in Section 3.9 of the Loan Agreement or in the Environmental Certificate, whether or not caused by Indemnitor, (vi) any violation of the Remediation Agreement (as defined below), or (vii) the failure of Indemnitor to duly perform the obligations or actions set forth in Section 2 hereof and in Section 3.9 and Section 3.20 of the Loan Agreement, including, without limitation, for all parts of this subsection 1(a), with respect to: (A) the imposition by any governmental authority of any lien upon the Mortgaged Property, (B) clean-up costs, (C) liability for personal injury or property damage or damage to the environment, (D) any diminution in the value of the Mortgaged Property and (E) fines, penalties and punitive damages.
(b) Indemnitor further agrees that Mortgagee shall not assume any liability or obligation for loss, damage, fines, penalties, claims or duty to clean up or dispose of wastes or materials on or relating to the Mortgaged Property as a result of any conveyance of title to the Mortgaged Property to the Mortgagee or otherwise or as a result of any documented inspections or any other actions made or taken by Mortgagee on the Mortgaged Property. Indemnitor agrees to remain fully liable and shall indemnify and hold harmless Mortgagee from any documented costs, expenses, clean-up costs, waste disposal costs, litigation costs, fines and penalties, including without limitation any costs, expenses, penalties and fines within the meaning of any Environmental Laws.
(c) Indemnitor shall assume the burden and expense of defending Mortgagee, with counsel satisfactory to Mortgagee, against all legal and administrative proceedings arising out of the occurrences set forth in this Indemnification Agreement. Mortgagee shall have the right, but not the obligation, to participate in the defense of any such proceedings. Indemnitor may compromise or settle any such proceedings without the consent of Mortgagee only if the claimant agrees as part of the compromise or settlement that Mortgagee shall have no responsibility or liability for the payment or discharge of any amount agreed upon or obligation to take any other action.
(d) Indemnitor shall pay when due any judgments against Mortgagee which have been indemnified under this Indemnification Agreement and which are rendered by a final order or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction from which no further appeal may be taken or has been taken within the applicable appeal period. In the event that such payment is not made, Mortgagee, in its sole discretion, may pay any such judgments, in whole or in part, and look to Indemnitor for reimbursement pursuant to this Indemnification Agreement, or may proceed to file suit against Indemnitor to compel such payment.
(e) It is understood that the presence and/or release of substances referred to in Section 1(a) hereof does not pertain to a presence and/or release which first occurs solely after (A) repayment of the Loan in full accordance with the Loan Documents or (B) acquisition of title to the Mortgaged Property by Mortgagee upon a foreclosure or acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure and surrender of possession and occupancy of the Mortgaged Property by Indemnitor, its agents, affiliates, employees and independent contractors. Indemnitor shall have the burden of proving that the conditions in this subsection (e) were satisfied by clear and convincing evidence and shall continue to defend with counsel satisfactory to Mortgagee and shall indemnify and hold Mortgagee harmless for all matters set forth in Section 1(a) hereof, unless and until a court of competent jurisdiction finds that Indemnitor has met such burden.
2. Indemnitors Representations, Warranties and Covenants . Indemnitor hereby represents, warrants and covenants to and with Mortgagee as follows:
(a) Indemnitor is solvent and the execution of this Indemnification Agreement does not render Indemnitor insolvent. Any and all financial statements, balance sheets, net worth statements and other financial data which have heretofore been furnished to Mortgagee with respect to Indemnitor fairly and accurately present the financial condition of Indemnitor as of the date they were furnished to Mortgagee and, since that date, there has been no material adverse change in the financial condition of Indemnitor.
(b) There are no legal proceedings or material claims or demands pending against or, to the best of Indemnitors knowledge, threatened against Indemnitor or any of its assets, which could affect Indemnitors ability to perform under this Agreement.
(c) The execution and delivery of this Indemnification Agreement and the assumption of liability hereunder have been in all respects authorized and approved by Indemnitor; Indemnitor has full authority and power to execute this Indemnification Agreement and to perform its obligations hereunder; and this Indemnification Agreement constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of Indemnitor and is fully enforceable in accordance with its terms.
(d) Neither the execution nor the delivery of this Indemnification Agreement nor the fulfillment and compliance with the provisions hereof will conflict with or result in a breach of or constitute a default under or result in the creation of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any property or assets of Indemnitor under any Loan Document or any agreement or instrument to which Indemnitor is now a party or by which it may be bound.
(e) Indemnitor has performed reasonable investigations, studies and tests as to any possible environmental contamination, liabilities or problems with respect to the Mortgaged Property and such investigations, studies and tests have disclosed no Hazardous Materials or possible violations of any Environmental Laws.
(f) To Indemnitors actual knowledge and except as set forth in the Environmental Reports (as defined in the Loan Agreement), there have been no releases of Hazardous Materials either at, upon, under or within the Mortgaged Property, no Hazardous Materials have migrated to the Mortgaged Property, no Hazardous Materials are located on or have been stored, processed or disposed of on or released or discharged from (including ground water contamination) the Mortgaged Property, and no above or underground storage tanks exist on the Mortgaged Property.
(g) Indemnitor shall not allow any Hazardous Materials to exist or be stored, located, discharged, released, possessed, managed, processed or otherwise handled on the Mortgaged Property or any other property currently or subsequently owned or operated by Indemnitor or any affiliate of Indemnitor (except materials which (a) are ordinarily and customarily used in the regular operation of the Mortgaged Property as an office, warehouse and industrial facility by the Borrower or any current tenant or any future tenant, which tenant and its lease have been approved by the Mortgagee, and (b) are used, stored, disposed of and handled in compliance with and in quantities permitted by all applicable Environmental Laws), and shall strictly comply with all Environmental Laws affecting the Mortgaged Property or such other property currently or subsequently owned or operated by Indemnitor, including those laws regarding the generation, storage, disposal, release and discharge of Hazardous Materials.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Indemnitor has not been, is not and will not become involved in operations at the Mortgaged Property or any other property currently or subsequently owned or operated by Indemnitor which could lead to imposition on Indemnitor of liability under any Environmental Law. Indemnitor expressly warrants, represents and covenants that Indemnitor shall strictly comply with all requirements of applicable Environmental Laws and shall immediately notify Mortgagee of any releases of Hazardous Materials at, upon, under or within the Mortgaged Property.
(h) Neither Indemnitor nor the Mortgaged Property (A) has received notice of or is subject to any private or governmental lien or judicial or administrative notice, order or action relating to Hazardous Materials or environmental problems, impairments or liabilities with respect to the Mortgaged Property or such other property or (B) is in or, with any applicable notice or lapse of time or failure to take certain curative or remedial actions, will be in either direct or indirect violation of any Environmental Laws.
(i) Indemnitor shall strictly comply with the requirements of all Environmental Laws affecting the Mortgaged Property.
(j) Indemnitor hereby warrants and represents that Indemnitor has not received any complaint, notice, letter, or other communication from occupants, tenants, guests, employees, licensees or any other person regarding odors, poor indoor quality, Mold, or any activity, condition, event or omission that causes or facilitates the growth of Mold. Indemnitor further represents to the best of its knowledge that no Mold or any activity, condition, event or omission that causes or facilitates the growth of Mold exists at the Mortgaged Property.
(k) Indemnitor hereby warrants and represents that all of the answers on the Environmental Certificate are true and complete as of the date hereof. Indemnitor shall immediately notify Mortgagee in writing should Indemnitor become aware that any of the answers on the Environmental Certificate either (A) was not true at the time the Environmental Certificate was executed or (B) becomes untrue during the term of the Loan.
3. Waivers . Indemnitor hereby waives the following: (a) notice of Mortgagees acceptance of this Indemnification Agreement; (b) notice of Indemnitors grant to Mortgagee of a security interest lien or encumbrance in any of Indemnitors assets; (c) Mortgagees release, waiver, modification or amendment of any Loan Document or any security interest, lien or encumbrance in any other partys assets given to Mortgagee to secure any Loan Document; (d) presentment, demand, notice of default, non-payment, partial payment and protest and all other notices or formalities to which Indemnitor may be entitled; (e) extensions of time of payment of the Note granted to Indemnitor or any other forbearances in Mortgagees enforcement of the Loan Documents; (f) acceptance from Indemnitor (or any other party) of any partial payment or payments of the Note or any collateral securing the payment thereof or the settlement, subordination, discharge or release of the Note; (g) notice of any of the matters set forth in parts (c) through (f) of this Section 3; (h) all suretyship defenses of every kind and nature; and (i) the defense of the statute of limitations in any action brought to enforce this Indemnification Agreement.
Indemnitor agrees that Mortgagee may have done, or at any time may do, any or all of the foregoing actions in such manner, upon such terms and at such times as Mortgagee, in its sole discretion, deems advisable, without in any way impairing, affecting, reducing or releasing Indemnitor from Indemnitors obligations under this Indemnification Agreement and Indemnitor hereby consents to each of the foregoing actions.
4. Enforcement .
(a) Indemnitor agrees that this Indemnification Agreement may be enforced by Mortgagee without first resorting to or exhausting any other security or collateral or without first having recourse to the Note or any of the property covered by the Mortgage through foreclosure proceedings or otherwise; provided, however, that nothing herein contained shall prevent Mortgagee from suing on the Note or foreclosing the Mortgage or from exercising any other rights thereunder.
(b) Indemnitor agrees that the indemnifications set forth herein are separate, independent of and in addition to Indemnitors undertakings under the Note. Indemnitor agrees that a separate action may be brought to enforce the provisions of this Indemnification Agreement which shall in no way be deemed to be an action on the Note, whether or not Mortgagee would be entitled to a deficiency judgment following a judicial foreclosure or sale under the Mortgage.
(c) This Indemnification Agreement shall be enforced and construed in accordance with the laws of the state in which the Mortgaged Property is located. Indemnitor hereby submits to personal jurisdiction in said state for the enforcement of this Indemnification Agreement and hereby waives any claim or right under the laws of any other state or of the United States to object to such jurisdiction. If such litigation is commenced, Indemnitor agrees that service of process may be made by serving a copy of the summons and complaint upon Indemnitor, through any lawful means, including upon its registered agent within said state, whom Indemnitor hereby appoints as its agent for these purposes. Nothing contained herein shall prevent Mortgagees bringing any action or exercising any rights against Indemnitor personally or against any property of Indemnitor within any other county, state, or country. The means of obtaining personal jurisdiction and perfecting service of process set forth above are not intended to be exclusive but are in addition to all other means of obtaining personal jurisdiction and perfecting service of process now or hereafter provided by applicable law.

The Loan is one of three (3) separate loans made by Mortgagee to Original Borrower pursuant to that certain Loan Agreement dated February 25, 2008 among Original Borrower and Mortgagee (the Original Loan Agreement ), which Original Loan Agreement is being simultaneously herewith amended and modified pursuant to that certain Amendment and Modification of Loan Agreement by and among Borrower and Mortgagee dated of even date herewith (the Amendment and collectively with the Original Loan Agreement as it may be amended, restated, renewed, extended or modified from time to time, the Loan Agreement ). Released Borrower has been released by Mortgagee from certain obligations under the Note and the Original Loan Agreement;
WHEREAS , Borrowers obligations under the Note and the Loan Agreement are further evidenced and secured by the Security Documents (as defined in the Loan Agreement), which includes the NY Mortgages (as defined in the Loan Agreement), under which an interest and first lien is granted to Mortgagee in certain property in the State of New York listed on Exhibit A attached hereto and made a part hereof (the NY Mortgaged Property ), and which also includes the CT Mortgages (as defined in the Loan Agreement) under which an interest and junior lien is granted to Mortgagee in certain property in the State of Connecticut listed on Exhibit B attached hereto and made a part hereof (the CT Mortgaged Property ) and the NJ Mortgages (as defined in the Loan Agreement) under which a first lien is granted to Mortgagee in certain property in the State of New Jersey listed on Exhibit C attached hereto and made a part hereof (the NJ Mortgaged Property , and the NY Mortgaged Property, the CT Mortgaged Property and the NJ Mortgaged Property are herein collectively referred to as the Mortgaged Property ) all of which, among other things, secure the obligations of Borrower under the Note and the Loan Agreement;
WHEREAS , as set forth in the Amendment, each Guarantor is an owner of a direct or indirect ownership interest in Borrower, and each Guarantor will directly benefit from Mortgagee consenting to the transactions contemplated in the Amendment;
WHEREAS , Mortgagee is unwilling to consent to the transaction contemplated in the Amendment unless Indemnitor agrees to indemnify and hold Mortgagee harmless from and against certain matters;
WHEREAS, Indemnitor desires to give such an indemnification to Mortgagee in order to induce Mortgagee to consent to the transactions contemplated in the Amendment; and
WHEREAS , Indemnitor has full authority and power to execute and deliver this Indemnification Agreement.
NOW, THEREFORE, for the purpose of inducing Mortgagee to consent to the transaction contemplated by the Amendment, which Indemnitor acknowledges is good, valuable, and sufficient consideration, Indemnitor hereby agrees as follows:
1. Indemnities .
(a) Notwithstanding any provisions in the Loan Documents, as defined in the Loan Agreement (the Loan Documents ) limiting or negating Indemnitors personal liability, Indemnitor agrees to unconditionally and absolutely indemnify and hold Mortgagee (as defined in Section 12 hereof), its officers, directors, policyholders, employees, agents and attorneys harmless from and against any documented loss, cost, liability, damage, claim or expense, including attorneys fees, actually suffered or incurred by Mortgagee in connection with the Mortgaged Property at any time, whether before, during or after enforcement of Mortgagees rights and remedies upon default under the Loan Documents, under or on account of, or as a result of (i) any Environmental Laws, as that term is defined in Section 14 hereof, (ii) any presence, release, or threat of release of Hazardous Materials, as defined in Section 14 hereof, at, upon, under or within the Mortgaged Property, (iii) the presence of asbestos or asbestos-containing materials, PCBs, radon gas, urea formaldehyde foam insulation or lead (whether in paint, water, soil, or plaster) at the Mortgaged Property, (iv) any breach of the covenants and warranties made in Section 2 hereof or in Section 3.9 of the Loan Agreement or in that certain Environmental Certificate (the Environmental Certificate ) executed in connection with Original Borrowers application for the Loan, (v) the falsity of any of the representations made in Section 2 hereof or in Section 3.9 of the Loan Agreement or in the Environmental Certificate, whether or not caused by Indemnitor, or (vi) the failure of Indemnitor to duly perform the obligations or actions set forth in Section 2 hereof and in Section 3.9 of the Loan Agreement, including, without limitation, for all parts of this subsection 1(a), with respect to: (A) the imposition by any governmental authority of any lien upon the Mortgaged Property, (B) clean-up costs, (C) liability for personal injury or property damage or damage to the environment, (D) any diminution in the value of the Mortgaged Property and (E) fines, penalties and punitive damages.
(b) Indemnitor further agrees that Mortgagee shall not assume any liability or obligation for loss, damage, fines, penalties, claims or duty to clean up or dispose of wastes or materials on or relating to the Mortgaged Property as a result of any conveyance of title to the Mortgaged Property to the Mortgagee or otherwise or as a result of any documented inspections or any other actions made or taken by Mortgagee on the Mortgaged Property. Indemnitor agrees to remain fully liable and shall indemnify and hold harmless Mortgagee from any documented costs, expenses, clean-up costs, waste disposal costs, litigation costs, fines and penalties, including without limitation any costs, expenses, penalties and fines within the meaning of any Environmental Laws.
(c) Indemnitor shall assume the burden and expense of defending Mortgagee, with counsel satisfactory to Mortgagee, against all legal and administrative proceedings arising out of the occurrences set forth in this Indemnification Agreement. Mortgagee shall have the right, but not the obligation, to participate in the defense of any such proceedings. Indemnitor may compromise or settle any such proceedings without the consent of Mortgagee only if the claimant agrees as part of the compromise or settlement that Mortgagee shall have no responsibility or liability for the payment or discharge of any amount agreed upon or obligation to take any other action.
(d) Indemnitor shall pay when due any judgments against Mortgagee which have been indemnified under this Indemnification Agreement and which are rendered by a final order or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction from which no further appeal may be taken or has been taken within the applicable appeal period. In the event that such payment is not made, Mortgagee, in its sole discretion, may pay any such judgments, in whole or in part, and look to Indemnitor for reimbursement pursuant to this Indemnification Agreement, or may proceed to file suit against Indemnitor to compel such payment.
(e) It is understood that the presence and/or release of substances referred to in Section 1(a) hereof does not pertain to a presence and/or release which first occurs solely after (A) repayment of the Loan in full accordance with the Loan Documents or (B) acquisition of title to the Mortgaged Property by Mortgagee upon a foreclosure or acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure and surrender of possession and occupancy of the Mortgaged Property by Indemnitor, its agents, affiliates, employees and independent contractors. Indemnitor shall have the burden of proving that the conditions in this subsection (e) were satisfied by clear and convincing evidence and shall continue to defend with counsel satisfactory to Mortgagee and shall indemnify and hold Mortgagee harmless for all matters set forth in Section 1(a) hereof, unless and until a court of competent jurisdiction finds that Indemnitor has met such burden.
2. Indemnitors Representations, Warranties and Covenants . Indemnitor hereby represents, warrants and covenants to and with Mortgagee as follows:
(a) Indemnitor is solvent and the execution of this Indemnification Agreement does not render Indemnitor insolvent. Any and all financial statements, balance sheets, net worth statements and other financial data which have heretofore been furnished to Mortgagee with respect to Indemnitor fairly and accurately present the financial condition of Indemnitor as of the date they were furnished to Mortgagee and, since that date, there has been no material adverse change in the financial condition of Indemnitor.
(b) There are no legal proceedings or material claims or demands pending against or, to the best of Indemnitors knowledge, threatened against Indemnitor or any of its assets, which could affect Indemnitors ability to perform under this Agreement.
(c) The execution and delivery of this Indemnification Agreement and the assumption of liability hereunder have been in all respects authorized and approved by Indemnitor; Indemnitor has full authority and power to execute this Indemnification Agreement and to perform its obligations hereunder; and this Indemnification Agreement constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of Indemnitor and is fully enforceable in accordance with its terms.
(d) Neither the execution nor the delivery of this Indemnification Agreement nor the fulfillment and compliance with the provisions hereof will conflict with or result in a breach of or constitute a default under or result in the creation of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any property or assets of Indemnitor under any Loan Document or any agreement or instrument to which Indemnitor is now a party or by which it may be bound.
(e) Indemnitor has performed reasonable investigations, studies and tests as to any possible environmental contamination, liabilities or problems with respect to the Mortgaged Property and such investigations, studies and tests have disclosed no Hazardous Materials or possible violations of any Environmental Laws.
(f) To Indemnitors actual knowledge and except as set forth in the Environmental Reports (as defined in the Loan Agreement), there have been no releases of Hazardous Materials either at, upon, under or within the Mortgaged Property, no Hazardous Materials have migrated to the Mortgaged Property, no Hazardous Materials are located on or have been stored, processed or disposed of on or released or discharged from (including ground water contamination) the Mortgaged Property, and no above or underground storage tanks exist on the Mortgaged Property.
(g) Indemnitor shall not allow any Hazardous Materials to exist or be stored, located, discharged, released, possessed, managed, processed or otherwise handled on the Mortgaged Property or any other property currently or subsequently owned or operated by Indemnitor or any affiliate of Indemnitor (except materials which (a) are ordinarily and customarily used in the regular operation of the Mortgaged Property as an office, warehouse and industrial facility by the Borrower or any current tenant or any future tenant, which tenant and its lease have been approved by the Mortgagee, and (b) are used, stored, disposed of and handled in compliance with and in quantities permitted by all applicable Environmental Laws), and shall strictly comply with all Environmental Laws affecting the Mortgaged Property or such other property currently or subsequently owned or operated by Indemnitor, including those laws regarding the generation, storage, disposal, release and discharge of Hazardous Materials.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Indemnitor has not been, is not and will not become involved in operations at the Mortgaged Property or any other property currently or subsequently owned or operated by Indemnitor which could lead to imposition on Indemnitor of liability under any Environmental Law. Indemnitor expressly warrants, represents and covenants that Indemnitor shall strictly comply with all requirements of applicable Environmental Laws and shall immediately notify Mortgagee of any releases of Hazardous Materials at, upon, under or within the Mortgaged Property.
(h) Neither Indemnitor nor the Mortgaged Property (A) has received notice of or is subject to any private or governmental lien or judicial or administrative notice, order or action relating to Hazardous Materials or environmental problems, impairments or liabilities with respect to the Mortgaged Property or such other property or (B) is in or, with any applicable notice or lapse of time or failure to take certain curative or remedial actions, will be in either direct or indirect violation of any Environmental Laws.
(i) Indemnitor shall strictly comply with the requirements of all Environmental Laws affecting the Mortgaged Property.
(j) Indemnitor hereby warrants and represents that Indemnitor has not received any complaint, notice, letter, or other communication from occupants, tenants, guests, employees, licensees or any other person regarding odors, poor indoor quality, Mold, or any activity, condition, event or omission that causes or facilitates the growth of Mold. Indemnitor further represents to the best of its knowledge that no Mold or any activity, condition, event or omission that causes or facilitates the growth of Mold exists at the Mortgaged Property.
(k) Indemnitor hereby warrants and represents that all of the answers on the Environmental Certificate are true and complete as of the date hereof. Indemnitor shall immediately notify Mortgagee in writing should Indemnitor become aware that any of the answers on the Environmental Certificate either (A) was not true at the time the Environmental Certificate was executed or (B) becomes untrue during the term of the Loan.
3. Waivers . Indemnitor hereby waives the following: (a) notice of Mortgagees acceptance of this Indemnification Agreement; (b) notice of Indemnitors grant to Mortgagee of a security interest lien or encumbrance in any of Indemnitors assets; (c) Mortgagees release, waiver, modification or amendment of any Loan Document or any security interest, lien or encumbrance in any other partys assets given to Mortgagee to secure any Loan Document; (d) presentment, demand, notice of default, non-payment, partial payment and protest and all other notices or formalities to which Indemnitor may be entitled; (e) extensions of time of payment of the Note granted to Indemnitor or any other forbearances in Mortgagees enforcement of the Loan Documents; (f) acceptance from Indemnitor (or any other party) of any partial payment or payments of the Note or any collateral securing the payment thereof or the settlement, subordination, discharge or release of the Note; (g) notice of any of the matters set forth in parts (c) through (f) of this Section 3; (h) all suretyship defenses of every kind and nature; and (i) the defense of the statute of limitations in any action brought to enforce this Indemnification Agreement.
Indemnitor agrees that Mortgagee may have done, or at any time may do, any or all of the foregoing actions in such manner, upon such terms and at such times as Mortgagee, in its sole discretion, deems advisable, without in any way impairing, affecting, reducing or releasing Indemnitor from Indemnitors obligations under this Indemnification Agreement and Indemnitor hereby consents to each of the foregoing actions.
4. Enforcement .
(a) Indemnitor agrees that this Indemnification Agreement may be enforced by Mortgagee without first resorting to or exhausting any other security or collateral or without first having recourse to the Note or any of the property covered by the Mortgage through foreclosure proceedings or otherwise; provided, however, that nothing herein contained shall prevent Mortgagee from suing on the Note or foreclosing the Mortgage or from exercising any other rights thereunder.
(b) Indemnitor agrees that the indemnifications set forth herein are separate, independent of and in addition to Indemnitors undertakings under the Note. Indemnitor agrees that a separate action may be brought to enforce the provisions of this Indemnification Agreement which shall in no way be deemed to be an action on the Note, whether or not Mortgagee would be entitled to a deficiency judgment following a judicial foreclosure or sale under the Mortgage.
(c) This Indemnification Agreement shall be enforced and construed in accordance with the laws of the state in which the Mortgaged Property is located. Indemnitor hereby submits to personal jurisdiction in said state for the enforcement of this Indemnification Agreement and hereby waives any claim or right under the laws of any other state or of the United States to object to such jurisdiction. If such litigation is commenced, Indemnitor agrees that service of process may be made by serving a copy of the summons and complaint upon Indemnitor, through any lawful means, including upon its registered agent within said state, whom Indemnitor hereby appoints as its agent for these purposes. Nothing contained herein shall prevent Mortgagees bringing any action or exercising any rights against Indemnitor personally or against any property of Indemnitor within any other county, state, or country. The means of obtaining personal jurisdiction and perfecting service of process set forth above are not intended to be exclusive but are in addition to all other means of obtaining personal jurisdiction and perfecting service of process now or hereafter provided by applicable law.
5. Duration . Subject to Paragraph 1(e) above, Indemnitor agrees that this Indemnification Agreement shall survive a foreclosure or the taking of a deed in lieu of foreclosure, the discharge of Indemnitors obligations under any of the Loan Documents, or any transfer of the Mortgaged Property.
6. Notice by Indemnitor . Indemnitor shall promptly after obtaining actual knowledge thereof advise Mortgagee in writing of (a) any governmental or regulatory actions instituted or threatened in writing under any Environmental Law affecting the Mortgaged Property or the matters indemnified hereunder, including without limitation any notice of inspection, abatement or non-compliance; (b) all claims made or threatened in writing by any third party against Indemnitor or the Mortgaged Property relating to damage, contribution, cost recovery, compensation, loss or injury resulting from the presence, release, threat of release or discharge on or from the Mortgaged Property of any Hazardous Materials; and (c) Indemnitors discovery of the presence of Hazardous Materials on the Mortgaged Property or on any real property adjoining or in the vicinity of the Mortgaged Property, or of any occurrence or condition on any such property which could subject Indemnitor or the Mortgaged Property to a claim under any Environmental Law or to any restrictions on ownership, occupancy, transferability or use of the Mortgaged Property under any Environmental Law.
Indemnitor shall deliver to Mortgagee any documentation or records as Mortgagee may request and which are susceptible of being obtained by Indemnitor without undue cost or expense and without the necessity for initiating legal proceedings to obtain the same in connection with all such actions, claims, discoveries, notices, inquiries and communications and shall advise Mortgagee of any subsequent developments regarding the same.
7. Payment of Mortgagees Expenses . If Mortgagee retains counsel for advice or other representation (a) in any litigation, contest, dispute, suit, or proceeding (whether instituted by Mortgagee, Indemnitor, or any other party) relating to any of the occurrences for which indemnification is given in this Indemnification Agreement or otherwise relating in any way to this Indemnification Agreement and the indemnities described herein or (b) to enforce Indemnitors obligations hereunder, the attorneys fees arising from such services and all related expenses and court costs shall be paid by Indemnitor upon demand of Mortgagee.
8. No Waiver .
(a) Indemnitors obligations hereunder shall in no way be impaired, reduced or released by reason of (i) Mortgagees omission or delay to exercise any right described herein or (ii) any act or omission of Mortgagee in connection with any notice, demand, warning or claim regarding violations of codes, laws or ordinances governing the Mortgaged Property.
(b) Nothing contained herein shall constitute or be construed as a waiver of any statutory or judicial federal, state or local law which may provide rights or remedies to Mortgagee against Indemnitor or others in connection with any claim relating to the Mortgaged Property and pertaining to the presence and/or release, threatened release, storage, disposal, generating or removal of any Hazardous Materials or to the failure to comply with any Environmental Laws now or hereafter enacted.

The Original Loan Agreement, as amended by this Agreement, is hereinafter referred to as the Loan Agreement . In addition to the Original Loan Agreement, the Mortgage and the Note, the Borrower and Disassociating Guarantors executed other instruments, documents or agreements which evidence, secure or relate to the Loan, which other instruments, documents or agreements are hereinafter collectively referred to as the Existing Loan Documents . The Existing Loan Documents, this Agreement and all other agreements, documents and instruments executed and delivered in connection herewith are hereinafter collectively referred to as the Loan Documents . The obligations of the Borrower under the Loan Documents are hereinafter sometimes referred to as the Obligations .
2. Incorporation . The forgoing recitals are incorporated into this Agreement and made a part hereof by this reference.
3. Conditions Precedent to Effectiveness of Consent. This Agreement, including, without limitation, the Consent (as hereinafter defined) and release of the Disassociating Guarantors hereinafter granted is subject to the following terms and conditions (the date on which all of such terms and conditions are satisfied to the satisfaction of the Lender is hereinafter referred to as the Effective Date ):
(a) The Consent shall in no way be deemed to (1) modify or amend any of the terms of the Loan Agreement or any other Loan Document except as expressly set forth in paragraph 4 of this Agreement, (2) serve as a consent of or waiver by the Lender to any request other than the Transfer, or (3) waive any rights or remedies the Lender may have under the Loan Agreement or any other Loan Documents, or (4) modify, waive, impair or affect any of the provisions, covenants, agreements, terms or conditions contained in the Loan Agreement or any other Loan Document, or to waive any present or future breach thereof or defaults thereunder, or (5) constitute a release of the Borrower for any of its obligations under the Loan. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, all of the other terms and conditions of the Loan Agreement and other Loan Documents shall remain the same and in full force and effect except as specifically set forth in this Agreement.
(b) The effectiveness of this Agreement is conditioned upon receipt by the Lender of: (1) the full execution and delivery of the Replacement Guaranty (as hereinafter defined) by the Replacement Guarantor, (2) the full execution and delivery of this Agreement, (3) the full execution and delivery of a Collateral Assignment of Management Agreement by and among the Borrower, the Lender and GTJ Management, LLC, as manager of the Property and dated as of the date hereof and in such form and substance as is reasonably acceptable to the Lender, (4) payment to the Lender of a non-refundable fee in connection with the Lenders review and consideration of the Transfer and its granting of the Consent in the amount of One Thousand Five Hundred and 00/100 Dollars ($1,500.00), (5) the Lenders receipt, review and approval of any amendments or modifications of the operating agreement of the Borrower, (6) the Lenders receipt of a fully signed and executed copy of such approved amendment or modification of the operating agreement of the Borrower, and (7) payment of the reasonable legal fees of Lenders counsel in connection herewith.
4. Amendments and Modifications .
(a) Amendments to Original Loan Agreement . From and after the Effective Date (as hereinafter defined), the Original Loan Agreement is amended and modified as follows:
(i) all references in the Original Loan Agreement to the term Guarantor shall mean and refer to the Replacement Guarantor;
(ii) Section 1.3 is amended to reflect that the Disassociating Guarantors are released from their respective guaranty and that the Replacement Guarantor has guaranteed the Loan on a limited recourse basis pursuant to a substitute limited guaranty of the Replacement Guarantor, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Lender, and dated of even date herewith (the Replacement Guaranty ). Accordingly, from and after the Effective Date, all references in the Original Loan Agreement to the Guaranty shall mean and refer to the Replacement Guaranty;
(iii) Section 6.1(l) is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:
(l) Guarantor . The Guarantor revokes, or takes action to revoke, any of its duties or obligations under any its Guaranty or a breach of any material term of its Guaranty occurs and such default continues for a period of thirty (30) days after written notice from Lender or there shall occur the dissolution or liquidation of the Guarantor.
(iv) Section 6.1(m) is hereby amended to delete the reference to Section 6.1(l) and replace the same with Section 4.1(j).
(b) Amendments to Existing Loan Documents . The Existing Loan Documents are hereby modified to incorporate the terms contained in this Agreement. All references to each Existing Loan Document contained in the Existing Loan Documents shall mean such Existing Loan Document as modified by this Agreement. Any default in this Agreement shall be an Event of Default under each Existing Loan Document.
5. Assumption of Obligations by Replacement Guarantor . From and after the Effective Date of this Agreement, the Replacement Guarantor shall be obligated and responsible, jointly and severally with the Borrower, for the performance of each and all of the obligations and agreements of the Indemnitor or Guarantor under the Environmental Indemnity Affidavit and the other Loan Documents to which any Disassociating Guarantor is a party. The Replacement guarantor shall be liable and responsible for each and all of the liabilities of the Indemnitor or Guarantor thereunder (excluding any misrepresentations by any Disassociating Guarantor), and shall be substituted in lieu of and in place of the Disassociating Guarantors as fully and completely as if the Replacement Guarantor had originally executed and delivered the Environmental Indemnity Affidavit and such Loan Documents as were executed and delivered by the Disassociating Guarantors as the Indemnitor or Guarantor thereunder including, without limitation, all of those obligations, agreements and liabilities which would have, but for the provisions of this Agreement, been the obligations, agreements and liabilities of the Disassociating Guarantors, without regard to when such obligations, agreements and liabilities arise, accrue or have arisen or accrued, and without regard to the Disassociating Guarantor then responsible or liable therefor at the time of such accrual. With respect to the Environmental Indemnity Agreement, the liability of the Replacement Guarantor shall be joint and several with that of Borrower.
6. Lenders Consent to Transfer; Release of Disassociating Guarantors .
(a) Pursuant to Section 4.2(c) of the Loan Agreement, and in accordance with the Borrowers request, and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Lender hereby grants its consent (the Consent ) to the Transfer effective as of the Effective Date. The Borrower acknowledges and agrees that the Consent herein contained is expressly limited to the Transfer herein described, that such Consent shall not waive or render unnecessary Lenders consent or approval of any subsequent sale, conveyance, assignment or transfer of the ownership or other beneficial membership interests in and to the Borrower, and that all salient provisions of the Loan Agreement shall continue in full force and effect.
(b) Effective as of the Effective Date, the Lender releases and relieves the Disassociating Guarantors from any ongoing personal liability under each of their respective Guaranty for any acts or events occurring or obligations arising after the Effective Date which are not caused by or arising out of any acts or events occurring or obligations arising prior to or on said date. Nothing contained in this Agreement is intended to release or diminish any other obligations any Disassociating Guarantor currently has or may at anytime have to the Lender of whatever nature. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, it is understood and agreed that release described in this paragraph is as to the Guaranty of each Disassociating Guarantor solely as it relates to the Obligations of the Borrower under the Loan and does not release, remise, diminish or discharge the Borrower from its obligations under the Loan, as amended by this Agreement and all documents and instruments executed and delivered in connection herewith, or the obligations of the Disassociating Guarantors (whether as borrower or guarantor) under or in connection with any other obligation (other than the Obligations) any Disassociating Guarantor now has or may hereafter have owing to the Lender.
The Disassociating Guarantors, on behalf of themselves and their heirs, successors and assigns, hereby release and forever discharge Lender, any trustee of the Loan, any servicer of the Loan, each of their respective predecessors in interest and successors and assigns, together with the officers, directors, partners, employees, investors, certificate holders and agents of each of the foregoing (collectively, Lender Parties ), from all debts, accountings, bonds, warranties, representations, covenants, promises, contracts, controversies, agreements, claims, damages, judgments, executions, actions, inactions, liabilities, demands or causes of action of any nature, at law or in equity, known or unknown, which the Disassociating Guarantors now have by reason of any cause, matter or thing through and including the date hereof including, without limitation, matters arising out of or relating to: (a) the Loan including, without limitation, its funding, administration and servicing; (b) the Loan Documents; (c) the Property; (d) any reserve and escrow balances held by Lender or any servicers of the Loan; or (e) the sale, conveyance, assignment and transfer of the Property. The Disassociating Guarantors, on behalf of themselves and their heirs, successors and assigns, covenant and agree never to institute or cause to be instituted or continue prosecution of any suit or other form of action or proceeding of any kind or nature whatsoever against any of Lender Parties by reason of or in connection with any of the foregoing matters, claims or causes of action, except for those claims or causes of action resulting from any of the Lender Parties gross negligence or willful misconduct.
7. Representations and Warranties; Waiver and Release . To induce the Lender to enter into this Agreement, the Borrower hereby represents and warrants to the Lender, that:
(a) The Borrower reaffirms all representations and warranties and agrees to perform and observe all affirmative and negative covenants contained in the Loan Agreement and other Loan Documents. All of such representations and warranties are incorporated herein by reference and are true and correct in all material respects as of the date Borrower signs below
(b) The Borrower has the right, power and authority and has taken all necessary limited liability company and other action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and each of the other Loan Documents in accordance with their respective terms.
(c) The Borrower represents, acknowledges and affirms that it has no claim, defense, offset or counterclaim whatsoever against Lender with respect to the Loan or any Loan Document, and that the Lender is relying on this representation in agreeing to enter into this Agreement and give the Consent. The Borrower further acknowledges that Lender would not agree to enter into this Agreement or give the Consent unless the Borrower made the representations contained in this paragraph and elsewhere in this Agreement freely and willingly, after due consultation with its attorney(s). The Borrower further represents that no Event of Default has occurred nor has there occurred any event or condition which, with the giving of notice or the passage of time, or both, would constitute an Event of Default. In furtherance of the foregoing, the Borrower hereby releases, and forever discharges the Lender, its officers, agents, successors and assigns from any and all claims, actions, causes of action, obligations and liabilities of any kind known or unknown which the Borrower has or may have as of the date hereof whether relating to the Loan Agreement or any other Loan Document or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or consummated in connection herewith, or any negotiations in connection with any of the foregoing.
8. Continued Force and Effect . All of the terms and conditions of the Original Loan Agreement and Existing Loan Documents and the collateral security provided thereby are hereby ratified and confirmed in all respects and shall remain and in full force and effect. This Agreement is not intended to, and shall not be construed to, effect a novation, and, except as expressly provided herein, none of the Existing Loan Documents have been modified, amended, cancelled, terminated, released, satisfied, superseded or otherwise invalidated. In the event of any conflict between the terms of this Agreement and the terms of any of the Loan Documents, the terms of this Agreement shall control. Borrower acknowledges and agrees that the Loan Documents, as modified hereby, are enforceable against Borrower and against the Property described therein in accordance with their respective terms.
9. Cross Default . It shall be an event of default hereunder if any representation or warranty made or deemed to be made by the Borrower under this Agreement shall at any time prove to have been incorrect in any material respect when made or deemed made. Any event of default hereunder or any default by the Borrower in any of the covenants herein made shall, at the option of Lender, or its successors and assigns, constitute an Event of Default under the Loan Agreement entitling Lender, or its successors or assigns, to any or all of the other remedies it or they may have thereunder.
10. Successors and Assigns . This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrower and Lender and their respective successors and assigns.
11. Waivers . BORROWER AND ANY SUBSEQUENT ENDORSER, GUARANTOR OR OTHER ACCOMMODATION MAKER EACH WAIVE PRESENTMENT, DEMAND FOR PAYMENT AND NOTICE OF DISHONOR, TOGETHER WITH ANY RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION WITH RESPECT TO THE RESTATED NOTE OR THIS AGREEMENT AND AS TO ANY ISSUES ARISING RELATING TO THE RESTATED NOTE OR THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT.
12. Captions . The articles and section captions are inserted herein only as a matter of convenience and for reference, and in no way define, limit or describe the scope or intent of any such article or section, nor in any way affect this Agreement.
13. Counterparts . This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all of which together shall constitute but one and the same agreement.

LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT THIS LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT (the Agreement) is made and effective as of the 30th day of September, 2010, by and between PEOPLES UNITED BANK, a federal savings bank having an office at 850 Main Street, Bridgeport, Connecticut (the Lender) and WU/LH 15 PROGRESS L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company, with a mailing address of 60 Hempstead Avenue, Suite 718, West Hempstead, New York 11552 (the Borrower), PAUL A. COOPER, an individual with a mailing address of 46 Rose Lane, East Rockaway, New York 11518, JEFFREY D. RAVETZ, an individual with a mailing address of 498 West End Avenue, Apt. 7A, New York, New York 10024, LOUIS E. SHEINKER, an individual with a mailing address of 19 The Glenada, Roslyn, New York 11577, and JEFFREY WU (a/k/a Myint J. Kyaw), an individual with a mailing address of 56-72 49th Place, Maspeth, New York 11378 (the foregoing individuals are hereinafter collectively referred to as the Guarantor). WITNESSETH: WHEREAS, the Borrower has made a request to the Lender for a permanent loan in the amount of TWO MILLION SEVEN HUNDRED THOUSAND AND 00/100 DOLLARS ($2,700,000.00) (the Loan). The Lender desires to make the Loan, and the Borrower desires to enter into the Loan, all upon the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth. NOW, THEREFORE, the parties mutually agree, represent and warrant as follows: ARTICLE I THE LOAN 1.1 Type and Amount of Loan. Subject to the satisfaction of the terms and conditions hereof and at the discretion of the Lender, and in reliance on the representations and warranties contained herein and in the other Loan Documents as defined below, the Lender agrees to furnish a permanent mortgage loan to the Borrower in the amount of TWO MILLION SEVEN HUNDRED THOUSAND AND 00/100 DOLLARS ($2,700,000.00), to be secured by, among other things, a first mortgage on the real property commonly known as 15 Progress Drive and 30 Commerce Drive, Shelton, Connecticut and being more particularly described in Schedule A hereto attached hereto and made a part hereof (the Property). The Loan shall be used to (a) fund the Tenant Improvements (as hereinafter defined) and (b) pay related closing expenses. 1.2 Interest and Repayment of Principal of Loan. The promissory note evidencing the Loan (the Note) is attached hereto as Schedule B, and contains all the terms relative to the repayment of principal, the payment of interest and the rate at which interest shall accrue. 1.3 Guaranty. Each Guarantor shall unconditionally and jointly and severally guaranty lien free completion of the Tenant Improvements and the payment and performance of all of Borrowers obligations under the Loan and the Loan Documents (collectively, the Obligations), including, without limitation. (i) repayment of all amounts due under the Loan, and (ii) lien free completion of the Tenant Improvements, pursuant to the terms of a guaranty (the Guaranty) in form and substance acceptable to the Lender. |
|
1.4 Commercial Checking Account. Throughout the term of the Loan, the Borrower shall maintain a Commercial Checking Account in the name of the Borrower at the Lender into which Borrower shall deposit all advances under the Loan, all proceeds of sale from the sale of portions of the Property and all other income and profits derived from the Property. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Borrower shall direct that all income and profits derived or received from the operation of the Property, including, without limitation, all rents and incomes received under any lease, including the Required Lease (as hereinafter defined), for all or any portion of the Property be directly deposited into said account. In furtherance thereof, Borrower will execute and deliver a notice to Required Tenant (as hereinafter defined) directing that the Required Tenant make all rent payments and all other payments required under the Required Lease to the Commercial Checking Account. Borrower hereby authorizes and directs Lender to automatically debit the Commercial Checking Account each calendar month during the term of the Loan in an amount equal to the sum of the following: (i) the amount necessary to establish and maintain an escrow account for annual estimated real estate taxes on the Property, insurance premiums and other charges and assessments which may accrue against the Property in accordance with the terms of the Mortgage; (ii) the next occurring installment of principal and interest due under the Note; and (iii) the next occurring Monthly Leasing Reserve Deposit (as hereinafter defined). 1.5 Reserve Escrow. (a) Commencing on the first day of the first month following the eighth (8th) anniversary of the Note (i.e. October 1, 2018) (the Leasing Reserve Commencement Date) and the first day of each month thereafter during the remaining term of Loan, Borrower shall be required to deposit, or direct the deposit, of the cash sum of Five Hundred Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($500,000.00) (the Leasing Reserve). The Leasing Reserve shall be deposited with Lender in substantially equal monthly installments of Thirteen Thousand Nine Hundred Sixteen and 67/100 Dollars ($13,916.67) commencing with the first payment of principal and interest due under the Note on the first day of the first month following the Leasing Reserve Commencement Date (each a Monthly Leasing Reserve Deposit) until such time as the initial Leasing Reserve of Five Hundred Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($500,000.00) has been deposited. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrower may pre-pay all or part of the Leasing Reserve provided that the aggregate sum deposited into the Leasing Reserve Account (as hereinafter defined) shall at all times be equal to or greater than the aggregate sum of the required Monthly Leasing Reserve Deposits which would have become payable on a monthly basis absent the pre-payment. All Monthly Leasing Reserve Deposits shall be paid to the Lender at the same time and in the same manner as the required monthly payment of principal, interest, tax and insurance escrow and shall be deposited by the Lender in an account (the Leasing Reserve Account) to be maintained at the Lender. The Leasing Reserve and all Monthly Leasing Reserve Deposits shall be deposited into the Leasing Reserve Account and shall not constitute a trust fund and may be commingled with other escrow monies held by Lender. The Borrower shall have no ability to withdraw any sums from the Leasing Reserve Account except for such disbursements as are authorized to be made by the Lender as set forth herein. Borrower shall execute and deliver to Lender a Pledge Agreement in form and substance acceptable to the Lender whereby the Borrower shall, inter alio, pledge, assign and grant a security interest to Lender, as additional security for Loan, in all of Borrowers right, title and interest in and to the Leasing Reserve Account, the funds contained therein and all 2 |
|
interest earned or accrued thereon, if any. During the existence of an Event of Default hereunder or under any other Loan Document, Lender may apply any sums then present in the Leasing Reserve Account to the payment of the Loan in any order in its sole discretion. (b) Except as set forth herein, the Lender shall retain the Leasing Reserve in the Leasing Reserve Account as additional collateral for the Loan. Once the Borrower has met the Leasing Requirements to the satisfaction of the Lender, the Lender shall disburse the funds from the Leasing Reserve Account as necessary but subject to the sole but reasonable discretion of the Lender and the terms of this Section 1.5, to fund or reimburse the Borrower for the Leasing Costs (as hereafter defined) upon presentation of an invoice or paid receipt and/or to fund debt service payments under the Loan in the event that rental payments under the Required Lease terminate prior to the Maturity Date (as defined in the Note). The Lender shall have no obligation to make any disbursements from the Leasing Reserve Account prior to the Borrowers satisfaction of the Leasing Requirements or during the existence of an Event of Default, or there remains insufficient funds in the Leasing Reserve Account for disbursement. During the existence of an Event of Default, an event or condition exist that but for the giving of notice or the passage of time, or both, would constitute an Event of Default, or after depletion of the Leasing Reserve Account the Borrower shall pay all Leasing Costs out of its own, non- borrowed funds. (c) All advances from the Leasing Reserve Account shall be subject to the following additional conditions: (i) Upon ten (10) days prior written request from Borrower and satisfaction of the requirements set forth in herein, Lender shall disburse amounts from the Leasing Reserve to fund the actual Leasing Costs incurred by Borrower, or, in the event Borrower has paid such costs, reimburse Borrower for the actual Leasing Costs incurred by Borrower. Each request for disbursement from the Leasing Reserve shall be on a form provided or approved by Lender and shall include such information and additional documentation as Lender may require, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender. (ii) Lender shall have no obligation to make any advance if there exists an Event of Default, or any condition, circumstance or occurrence which but for the giving of notice or passage of time would constitute an Event of Default, under the Note, the Mortgage, or any other Loan Documents, or Borrower is in default under any lease, contract or obligation affecting the Property and such default under a lease, contract or obligation is material and adverse to Lenders security, as determined by Lender in its sole but reasonable discretion. (iii) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Borrower shall not make a request for disbursement from the Leasing Reserve more frequently than once in any calendar month. (d) As used herein: 3 |
|
((1)) Leasing Requirements shall mean the (A) renewal of the Required Lease for the entire Building (as hereinafter defined) for the first five (5) year renewal term provided for under the Required Lease or (ii) execution of a new lease with a new tenant or tenants for no less than ninety percent (90%) of the rentable area of the Building on terms and conditions acceptable to the Lender with a tenant or tenants whose credit is acceptable to the Lender, which leases will provide a debt service coverage ratio of not less than 1.40 to 1 for not less than a five (5) year term commencing upon scheduled expiration date for the Required Lease. (ii) Leasing Costs shall mean (A) the costs reasonably incurred by the Borrower to perform, or cause to be performed, tenant improvements required under any replacement lease or modification, renewal or extension of the Required Lease; and (B) the costs of leasing commissions incurred by Borrower in connection with the leasing of the Building or any portion thereof, provided that (x) such leasing commissions are reasonable and customary for properties similar to the Property and the portion of the Property leased for which such leasing commission is due, and (y) the amounts of such leasing commissions are determined pursuant to arms length transactions between Borrower and any leasing agent to which a leasing commission is due, and excluding any leasing commissions which shall be due any member, general partner or shareholder of Borrower or any affiliate of Borrower, except that Lender acknowledges (i) that an affiliate of Borrower may receive a co-broker commission of one percent (1%) in excess of the brokerage commission otherwise payable to CBRE (or any broker retained by Borrower to replace CBRE) pursuant to its listing agreement with Borrower and (ii) if Borrowers leasing agent affiliate is the sole procuring broker Borrowers affiliate can receive a market rate commission. 1.6 Initial Debt Service Reserve. Simultaneously with the execution of this Agreement, the Borrower shall deposit the sum of Thirty-Two Thousand Five Hundred Twenty- Seven and 30/100 Dollars ($32,527.30) (the Initial Debt Service Reserve) into a restricted reserve account in the Borrowers name maintained at the Lender (the IDS Reserve Account). As security for full payment of the Loan and timely performance of Borrowers obligations under the Loan Documents and this Agreement, Borrower hereby pledges, transfers, assigns and sets over to Lender, and grants to Lender a continuing security interest in and to, the Initial Debt Service Reserve and the IDS Reserve Account, all money deposited therein from time to time, and all profits and proceeds thereof. Borrower agrees to execute, acknowledge, deliver, file or do, at its sole expense, all other acts, assignments, notices, agreements or other instruments as Lender may reasonably require in order to perfect the foregoing security interest, pledge and assignment or otherwise to fully effectuate the rights granted to Lender by this Section. This Agreement also constitutes a deposit account and a security agreement within the meaning of Article 9 of the UCC (as hereinafter defined). In addition to all other rights and remedies provided for herein or otherwise available at law or in equity, Lender shall have all rights of a secured party under Article 9 of the UCC with respect to the Deposit Account and funds deposited therein. The Lender shall disburse the sums in the IDS Reserve Account to pay the monthly debt service (inclusive of monthly tax escrow) due under the Note as and when the same becomes payable unless (i) the Release Conditions (as hereinafter defined) are satisfied to the satisfaction of the Lender; (ii) there remains insufficient funds in the IDS Reserve Account; or (iii) there has been an Event of Default or event or condition which with the passage of time or 4 |
|
giving of notice, or both, would constitute an Event of Default hereunder or under any other Loan Documents. Provided that there exists no Event of Default, or fact or condition which with the passage of time or giving of notice, or both, would constitute an Event of Default, Lender shall disburse all funds then present in the IDS Reserve Account to Borrower following satisfaction of the Release Conditions. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Lender may apply any sums then present in the IDS Reserve Account to the payment of the Loan in any order in its sole discretion. As used herein, the term Release Conditions shall mean that all of the following conditions have been satisfied to the full satisfaction of the Lender: (i) no Event of Default shall exist and remain uncured, or event or condition exist that but for the giving of notice or the passage of time, or both, would constitute an Event of Default hereunder or under any other Loan Documents; (ii) the Required Tenant has taken possession of the Building pursuant to the Required Lease and commenced the payment of rent thereunder; and (iii) the Required Tenant has executed and delivered to Lender an estoppel certificate certifying, among other things, (1) that the Required Tenant has taken occupancy of the Building and the Tenant Improvements have been completed and accepted by the Required Tenant, (2) that the payment of rent under the Required Lease has commenced as of January 1, 2011, (3) that no event of default or event or condition which with the passage of time or giving of notice, or both, would constitute an event of default has occurred or is continuing under the Required Lease, (4) that the Required Tenant has no current defenses or claims aginst the Borrower or rights of offset against any rents payable to the Borrower under the Required Lease or otherwise, and (5) as to such other matters as reasonably requested by the Lender.

The Borrower shall furnish any such identification number issued promptly to the Lender. 7 |
|
(B) The Borrower shall at any time and from time to time take such steps as the Lender may reasonably request for the Lender: (1) to obtain an acknowledgment, in form and substance satisfactory to the Lender of any bailee having possession of any of the UCC Collateral that the bailee holds such UCC Collateral for the Lender, (2) to obtain control of any investment property, deposit accounts, letter-of-credit rights or electronic chattel paper maintained at Lender (as such terms are defined in Article 9 of the UCC with corresponding provisions in §§ 9-104, 9-105, 9-106 and 9-107 relating to what constitutes control for such items of UCC Collateral), with any agreements establishing control to be in form and substance satisfactory to the Lender, and (3) otherwise to insure the continued perfection and priority of the Lenders security interest in any of the UCC Collateral and of the preservation of its rights therein. (C) Nothing contained herein shall be construed to narrow the scope of the security interest granted hereby in any of the UCC Collateral or the perfection or priority thereof or to impair or otherwise limit any of the rights, powers, privileges or remedies of the Lender hereunder except as (and then only to the extent) specifically mandated by Article 9 of the UCC to the extent then applicable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties agree that Lenders security interest hereunder shall not extend to any Hazardous Substances (as hereinafter defined) or Hazardous Waste (as hereinafter defined) or devices utilized primarily for the storage of Hazardous Substances or Hazardous Waste. (c) Rents and Leases. (i) Lender shall be provided with a general assignment of rents and leases (the Assignment of Leases), in form and substance satisfactory to Lender of all leases (each. a Lease and collectively the Leases) and rents now existing or arising in the future with respect to the Property. The form and content of all Leases shall be acceptable to Lender and its counsel. Each and every Lease or rental agreement involving any part of the Property must be subordinate to the Mortgage and any and all modifications, renewals, extensions and/or replacements of said Mortgage. Lenders title insurance shall insure such subordination. Borrower shall not enter into any Lease, sublease or other rental agreement without Lenders prior written approval of said Lease or rental agreement, and in no event shall any Lease or rental agreement contain any option or rights of first refusal to purchase the Property or any portion thereof. Any tenant and/or occupant whose Lease is not automatically subordinate to the Mortgage on terms and conditions acceptable to the Lender shall duly execute and deliver to the Lender a subordination, ratification and attornment agreement, which agreement shall be satisfactory in form and substance to the Lender and shall provide, among other terms, that (A) tenant acknowledges the assignment of its Lease or rental agreement to the Lender; (B) upon notification from the Lender, the tenant and/or occupant shall pay, without set off or deduction, all rent and other sums due under its Lease and/or rental agreement directly to the Lender or its designee regardless of whether or not said tenant 8 |
|
or occupant receives a notice to the contrary from the Borrower; (C) the Lender shall not be responsible for refunding any security deposits unless the Lender has actually received said deposits; (D) that the parties will not modify, amend, cancel, surrender, or pledge or assign the Lease without the Lenders consent; and (E) that the tenant will not terminate the Lease by reason of landlords default without at least ten (10) days written notice to the Lender and an opportunity to cure the default; and containing such other provisions as the Lender may reasonably require. If any lease approved by the Lender provides that the tenant under that Lease is entitled to a non-disturbance agreement from the Lender, the Lender agrees to issue such non-disturbance agreement from the Lender, the Lender agrees to issue such non-desturbance agreement as long as such tenant is not in any way affiliated with or owned or controlled by Borrower. If the Lender should so require, the written lease subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreements described hereinabove shall be recorded in the Shelton Land Records. (ii) Lender shall be authorized to notify lessees of the existence of such assignments. Lender agrees, however, not to exercise any such assignments until such time as an Event of Default exists hereunder or under the Loan Documents. (d) Additional Security. In addition, the Loan shall be secured by such additional collateral documents relating to the Property and the improvements thereon as the Lender may require. (e) Loan Documents. All of the foregoing, and all other documents executed by Borrower or Guarantor in connection with the Loan being collectively referred to as the Loan Documents.

Any notice from Lender to Borrower concerning an Event of Default hereunder shall be provided to each Guarantor at their addresses first set forth above and otherwise in accordance with this Section 7.16. 7.17 Patriot Act Compliance. Borrower will use its good faith and commercially reasonable efforts to comply with the Patriot Act (as defined below) and all applicable requirements of governmental authorities having jurisdiction of the Borrower and the Property, including those relating to money laundering and terrorism. The Lender shall have the right to audit the Borrowers compliance with the Patriot Act and all applicable requirements of governmental authorities having jurisdiction of the Borrower and the Property, including those relating to money laundering and terrorism. In the event that the Borrower fails to comply with the Patriot Act or any such requirements of governmental authorities, then the Lender may, at its option, cause the Borrower to comply therewith and any and all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Lender in connection therewith shall be secured by the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents and shall be immediately due and payable. For purposes hereof, the term Patriot Act means the Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism (USA PATRIOT ACT) Act of 2001, as the same may be amended from time to time, and corresponding provisions of future laws. Neither the Borrower nor any partner in the Borrower or member of such partner nor any owner of a direct or indirect interest in the Borrower nor any Guarantor (a) is listed on any Government Lists (as defined below), (b) is a person who has been determined by competent authority to be subject to the prohibitions contained in Presidential Executive Order No. 13224 (Sept. 23, 2001) or any other similar prohibitions contained in the rules and regulations of OFAC (as defined below) or in any enabling legislation or other Presidential Executive Orders in 23 |
|
respect thereof, (c) has been previously indicted for or convicted of any felony involving a crime or crimes of moral turpitude or for any Patriot Act Offense (as defined below), or (d) is not currently under investigation by any governmental authority for alleged criminal activity. For purposes hereof, the term Patriot Act Offense means any violation of the criminal laws of the United States of America or of any of the several states, or that would be a criminal violation if committed within the jurisdiction of the United States of America or any of the several states, relating to terrorism or the laundering of monetary instruments, including any offense under (a) the criminal laws against terrorism; (b) the criminal laws against money laundering, (c) the Lender Secrecy Act, as amended, (d) the Money Laundering Control Act of 1986, as amended, or (e) the Patriot Act.

It is the intent of Lender and Borrower to comply at all times with applicable usury laws. If at any time such laws would render usurious any amounts called for under any of the Loan Documents, then it is Borrowers and Lenders express intention that such excess amount be immediately credited on the principal balance of the Note (or, if the Note has been fully paid, refunded by Lender to Borrower, and Borrower shall accept such refund), and the provisions hereof and thereof be immediately deemed to be reformed and the amounts thereafter collectible hereunder reduced to comply with the then applicable laws, without the necessity of the execution of any further documents, but so as to permit the recovery of the fullest amount otherwise called for hereunder and thereunder. Any such crediting or refund shall not cure or waive any default by Borrower under any of the Loan Documents. If at any time following any such reduction in the interest rate payable by Borrower, there remains unpaid any principal amounts under the Note and the maximum interest rate permitted by law is increased or eliminated, then the interest rate payable hereunder shall be readjusted, to the extent permitted by applicable law, so that the total dollar amount of interest payable hereunder shall be equal to the dollar amount of interest which would have been paid by Borrower without giving effect to the reduction in interest resulting from compliance with the applicable usury laws theretofore in effect. Borrower agrees, however, that in determining whether or not any interest payable under any of the Loan Documents is usurious, any non-principal payment (except payments specifically stated in the Note or in any other Loan Documents to be interest), including, without limitation, prepayment fees and late charges, shall be deemed to the extent permitted by law, to be an expense, fee, premium or penalty rather than interest. 7.19 Assignment, Syndication and Participation. The Lender reserves the right to assign all or any portion of the Loan to other lenders (with a corresponding reduction in Lenders share of the Loan) or to participate out all or any portion of the Loan. The Borrower and Guarantor grants to the Lender the right to distribute to potential investors, assignees and participants, without further notice to the Borrower or Guarantor, and at the Lenders sole 24 |
|
discretion, any information relative to the Borrower, including, but not limited to, preliminary budgets, pro forma statements and financial statements. The rights conferred upon the Lender by this Agreement shall be automatically extended to and vested in any assignee or transferee of the Lender upon the Borrowers receipt of notice of such assignment or transfer; provided, however, that no such assignment or transfer shall enlarge or modify the obligations of the Borrower or Guarantor hereunder. 7.20 Appraisals. From time to time, Borrower shall permit the Lender to obtain additional appraisals of all or any portion of the Property, and if an appraisal is required by law, is made to ascertain the value of the Property upon considering a loan extension, or is commissioned following an Event of Default, then Borrower shall pay to the Lender within ten (10) business days of demand all costs of such appraisal. Appraisals shall be the property of the Lender but provided the Borrower is not in default hereunder, the Lender shall provide copies of any appraisals to Borrower or any Guarantor upon Borrowers request provided the Borrower and any receiving Guarantor signs the Lenders standard appraisal release letter.

Promissory Note Bridgeport, Connecticut $2,700,000.00 September 30, 2010 FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned, WU/LH 15 PROGRESS L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company, having an address of 60 Hempstead Avenue, Suite 718, West Hempstead, New York 11552 (hereinafter called Borrower), promises to pay to the order of PEOPLES UNITED BANK, a federal savings bank having an office at 850 Main Street, Bridgeport, Connecticut 06604 (the Lender), the principal sum of TWO MILLION SEVEN HUNDRED THOUSAND AND 00/100 ($2,700,000.00), plus interest, payable at the rate and in the manner provided in paragraphs 1 and 2 of this Note, together with all taxes assessed upon said sum against the holder hereof, and any costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys fees, incurred in the collection of this Note, the foreclosure of the Open- End Mortgage Deed and Security Agreement from Borrower to Lender and dated of even date herewith (the Mortgage) securing, inter alia, this Note or in enforcing the terms and conditions of that certain Loan and Security Agreement entered into by and between the Borrower and the Lender and dated of even date herewith (the Loan Agreement) or in protecting or sustaining the lien of said Mortgage. Said amounts of principal, interest, fees, costs and expenses are collectively referred to in this Note as the Entire Note Balance. 1. INTEREST RATE. (a) The outstanding principal balance of this Note shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to five and twenty-three-hundredths percent (5.23%) commencing on the date hereof and continuing until the Maturity Date (as hereinafter defined) or the sooner imposition of the Default Rate (as hereinafter defined) (b) Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, as defined in this Note, the Mortgage or the Loan Agreement, the entire principal amount of this Note and all interest and other sums due thereon, at the option of Lender shall become immediately due and payable. Should an Event of Default occur, the outstanding balance of the loan shall bear interest at the rate set forth above plus five percent (5%) per annum (the Default Rate). 2. PAYMENTS. (a) Commencing on November 1, 2010 and on the first day of each successive month thereafter through and including the Maturity Date, principal and interest shall be payable in equal monthly installments in arrears in an amount equal to the sum necessary to fully amortize the loan at the interest rate then in effect over an assumed term of twenty five (25) years (the Amortization Period). Accordingly, commencing on November 1, 2010 and on the first day of each month thereafter through and including the Maturity Date, principal and interest shall be payable in successive equal monthly installments of Sixteen Thousand Two Hundred Sixty-Three and 65/100 Dollars ($16,263.65). On even date herewith, Borrower has prepaid interest that will accrue on the Note during the month of September, 2010. (b) All interest shall be computed on a daily basis and calculated on the basis of a three hundred sixty (360) day year for the actual number of days elapsed, to be payable in arrears on the unpaid principal balance outstanding. |
|
(c) All monthly payments of principal and/or interest required pursuant to the terms of this Note shall, at Lenders option, be made together with one-twelfth (1/12) of the annual real estate taxes, insurance premiums and other charges and assessments which may accrue against the property if the same are being escrowed pursuant to the Mortgage. 3. MATURITY. The Entire Note Balance, if not sooner paid, shall be due and payable without notice or demand on October 1, 2020 (the Maturity Date). 4. PREPAYMENT PENALTY. Borrower may prepay this Note in whole or in part at any time only upon thirty (30) days prior notice (which may be revoked by the Borrower) to Lender (the Prepayment Notice) and the payment to Lender of a prepayment fee (the Prepayment Fee). The Prepayment Fee shall be equal the Net Loss (as defined below). As used herein, the term Net Loss means the economic loss the Lender sustains or incurs as a result of such prepayment, and the Borrower and the Lender agree that said economic loss shall be calculated as follows: (a) The Lender shall first determine the Index Rate. The Index Rate shall mean the index used to determine the interest rate payable by Borrower on the Prepayment Date. For purposes of this Note, the Index Rate shall be three and twenty-three-hundredths percent (3.23%). (b) Utilizing the Index Rate, the Lender shall then calculate the monthly interest amount payable from the Prepayment Date to the Termination Date, defined as the Maturity Date. The result is the Monthly Index Payment. (c) Utilizing the Reinvestment Rate (defined below), the Lender shall then calculate the monthly interest that would be earned by reinvesting the principal amount being prepaid for each month remaining until the Termination Date. The result is the Monthly Reinvestment Payment. The Reinvestment Rate shall be defined as the rate (as of the date Lender accepts the Borrowers voluntary or involuntary prepayment or accelerates the indebtedness) available to Lender for the investment in U.S. Treasury Obligations (Treasury Obligation) with a maturity closest to, or co-terminus with, the Termination Date. If the Lender identifies more than one Treasury Obligation having the same maturity date, the Treasury Obligation having a coupon interest rate closest to the interest rate payable under the Loan as of the Prepayment Date shall be used. (d) Each Monthly Reinvestment Payment shall then be subtracted from the corresponding Monthly Index Payment; the result, if positive, is the Monthly Payment Differential. The Monthly Payment Differential shall in no event be less than zero. (e) Each Monthly Payment Differential shall then be discounted to present value at the Reinvestment Rate. The result is the Discounted Monthly Payment Differential. (f) All of the Discounted Monthly Payment Differential amounts shall then be added together, and such aggregated amount shall constitute the Net Loss. 2 |
|
Notwithstanding the Prepayment Fee specified above, there will be no Prepayment Fee or prohibition against prepayment during the period thirty (30) days prior to the Maturity Date. The Borrower shall be responsible, in addition to any Prepayment Fee, for the payment of any reasonable out-of-pocket third party administrative costs incurred by Lender in connection with such prepayment. If this Note shall be accelerated for any reason whatsoever, the applicable Prepayment Fee in effect as of the date of such acceleration shall be paid. All partial prepayments of principal shall be accompanied by and applied first to the payment of costs and expenses thereto unpaid late charges, then to accrued and unpaid interest and the balance on account of the unpaid principal in the inverse order of maturity. Partial prepayments shall not affect the Borrowers obligation to make the regular installments of principal and interest required under the terms of this Note. 5. APPLICATION OF PAYMENTS. Payments will be applied first to fully pay costs and expenses incurred by holder in collecting this Note or in sustaining and/or enforcing any security granted to secure this Note, then to fully pay any outstanding late charges or prepayment, then to fully pay accrued interest and the remainder will be applied to principal. 6. LATE CHARGE. Borrower shall pay the holder of this Note a late charge of five percent (5%) of any monthly installment not received by the holder within ten (10) days after the installment is due, to cover the additional expenses involved in handling such overdue installment. This charge shall be in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other remedy the holder of this Note may have and is in addition to any reasonable fees and charges of any agents or attorneys which the holder of this Note is entitled to employ in the Event of Default hereunder, whether authorized herein or by law. Borrower will pay this late charge promptly but only once for each late payment. 7. DEFAULT. During the existence of any Event of Default (as hereinafter defined), the Entire Note Balance shall, at the option of the holder hereof, become immediately due and payable without notice or demand. An Event of Default is defined as any one of the following: (i) default in the payment of any interest, principal, or other amounts due hereunder during the term of this loan and such default continuing for a period of ten (10) days after the due date thereof; (ii) default in the payment of any principal or other amounts due upon the Maturity Date; (iii) an Event of Default in the performance of any of the other conditions or stipulations of this Note, the Loan Agreement or any other document evidencing an obligation to the Lender; (iv) the existence of any Event of Default as defined in the Mortgage or the breach of any provision of any other instrument securing this Note; or (v) any sale, conveyance or transfer of any interest in the property securing this Note in violation of the Loan Agreement. 8.

FOR VALUE RECEIVED , the undersigned, WU/LH 15 PROGRESS L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company, having an address of 60 Hempstead Avenue, Suite 718, West Hempstead, New York 11552 (hereinafter called Borrower ), promises to pay to the order of PEOPLES UNITED BANK, a federal savings bank having an office at 850 Main Street, Bridgeport, Connecticut 06604 (the Lender ), the principal sum of TWO MILLION SEVEN HUNDRED THOUSAND AND 00/100 ($2,700,000.00), plus interest, payable at the rate and in the manner provided in paragraphs 1 and 2 of this Note, together with all taxes assessed upon said sum against the holder hereof, and any costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys fees, incurred in the collection of this Note, the foreclosure of the Open-End Mortgage Deed and Security Agreement from Borrower to Lender and dated of even date herewith (the Mortgage ) securing, inter alia, this Note or in enforcing the terms and conditions of that certain Loan and Security Agreement entered into by and between the Borrower and the Lender and dated of even date herewith (the Loan Agreement ) or in protecting or sustaining the lien of said Mortgage. Said amounts of principal, interest, fees, costs and expenses are collectively referred to in this Note as the Entire Note Balance .
1. INTEREST RATE .
(a) The outstanding principal balance of this Note shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to five and twenty-three-hundredths percent (5.23%) commencing on the date hereof and continuing until the Maturity Date (as hereinafter defined) or the sooner imposition of the Default Rate (as hereinafter defined)
(b) Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, as defined in this Note, the Mortgage or the Loan Agreement, the entire principal amount of this Note and all interest and other sums due thereon, at the option of Lender shall become immediately due and payable. Should an Event of Default occur, the outstanding balance of the loan shall bear interest at the rate set forth above plus five percent (5%) per annum (the Default Rate ).
2. PAYMENTS .
(a) Commencing on November 1, 2010 and on the first day of each successive month thereafter through and including the Maturity Date, principal and interest shall be payable in equal monthly installments in arrears in an amount equal to the sum necessary to fully amortize the loan at the interest rate then in effect over an assumed term of twenty five (25) years (the Amortization Period ). Accordingly, commencing on November 1, 2010 and on the first day of each month thereafter through and including the Maturity Date, principal and interest shall be payable in successive equal monthly installments of Sixteen Thousand Two Hundred Sixty-Three and 65/100 Dollars ($16,263.65). On even date herewith, Borrower has prepaid interest that will accrue on the Note during the month of September, 2010.
(b) All interest shall be computed on a daily basis and calculated on the basis of a three hundred sixty (360) day year for the actual number of days elapsed, to be payable in arrears on the unpaid principal balance outstanding.
(c) All monthly payments of principal and/or interest required pursuant to the terms of this Note shall, at Lenders option, be made together with one-twelfth (1/12) of the annual real estate taxes, insurance premiums and other charges and assessments which may accrue against the property if the same are being escrowed pursuant to the Mortgage.
3. MATURITY . The Entire Note Balance, if not sooner paid, shall be due and payable without notice or demand on October 1, 2020 (the Maturity Date ).
4. PREPAYMENT PENALTY . Borrower may prepay this Note in whole or in part at any time only upon thirty (30) days prior notice (which may be revoked by the Borrower) to Lender (the Prepayment Notice ) and the payment to Lender of a prepayment fee (the Prepayment Fee ). The Prepayment Fee shall be equal the Net Loss (as defined below).
As used herein, the term Net Loss means the economic loss the Lender sustains or incurs as a result of such prepayment, and the Borrower and the Lender agree that said economic loss shall be calculated as follows:
(a) The Lender shall first determine the Index Rate. The Index Rate shall mean the index used to determine the interest rate payable by Borrower on the Prepayment Date. For purposes of this Note, the Index Rate shall be three and twenty-three-hundredths percent (3.23%).
(b) Utilizing the Index Rate, the Lender shall then calculate the monthly interest amount payable from the Prepayment Date to the Termination Date , defined as the Maturity Date. The result is the Monthly Index Payment .
(c) Utilizing the Reinvestment Rate (defined below), the Lender shall then calculate the monthly interest that would be earned by reinvesting the principal amount being prepaid for each month remaining until the Termination Date. The result is the Monthly Reinvestment Payment . The Reinvestment Rate shall be defined as the rate (as of the date Lender accepts the Borrowers voluntary or involuntary prepayment or accelerates the indebtedness) available to Lender for the investment in U.S. Treasury Obligations ( Treasury Obligation ) with a maturity closest to, or co-terminus with, the Termination Date. If the Lender identifies more than one Treasury Obligation having the same maturity date, the Treasury Obligation having a coupon interest rate closest to the interest rate payable under the Loan as of the Prepayment Date shall be used.
(d) Each Monthly Reinvestment Payment shall then be subtracted from the corresponding Monthly Index Payment; the result, if positive, is the Monthly Payment Differential . The Monthly Payment Differential shall in no event be less than zero.
(e) Each Monthly Payment Differential shall then be discounted to present value at the Reinvestment Rate. The result is the Discounted Monthly Payment Differential .
(f) All of the Discounted Monthly Payment Differential amounts shall then be added together, and such aggregated amount shall constitute the Net Loss .
Notwithstanding the Prepayment Fee specified above, there will be no Prepayment Fee or prohibition against prepayment during the period thirty (30) days prior to the Maturity Date. The Borrower shall be responsible, in addition to any Prepayment Fee, for the payment of any reasonable out-of-pocket third party administrative costs incurred by Lender in connection with such prepayment. If this Note shall be accelerated for any reason whatsoever, the applicable Prepayment Fee in effect as of the date of such acceleration shall be paid. All partial prepayments of principal shall be accompanied by and applied first to the payment of costs and expenses thereto unpaid late charges, then to accrued and unpaid interest and the balance on account of the unpaid principal in the inverse order of maturity. Partial prepayments shall not affect the Borrowers obligation to make the regular installments of principal and interest required under the terms of this Note.
5. APPLICATION OF PAYMENTS . Payments will be applied first to fully pay costs and expenses incurred by holder in collecting this Note or in sustaining and/or enforcing any security granted to secure this Note, then to fully pay any outstanding late charges or prepayment, then to fully pay accrued interest and the remainder will be applied to principal.
6. LATE CHARGE . Borrower shall pay the holder of this Note a late charge of five percent (5%) of any monthly installment not received by the holder within ten (10) days after the installment is due, to cover the additional expenses involved in handling such overdue installment. This charge shall be in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other remedy the holder of this Note may have and is in addition to any reasonable fees and charges of any agents or attorneys which the holder of this Note is entitled to employ in the Event of Default hereunder, whether authorized herein or by law. Borrower will pay this late charge promptly but only once for each late payment.
7. DEFAULT . During the existence of any Event of Default (as hereinafter defined), the Entire Note Balance shall, at the option of the holder hereof, become immediately due and payable without notice or demand.
An Event of Default is defined as any one of the following: (i) default in the payment of any interest, principal, or other amounts due hereunder during the term of this loan and such default continuing for a period of ten (10) days after the due date thereof; (ii) default in the payment of any principal or other amounts due upon the Maturity Date; (iii) an Event of Default in the performance of any of the other conditions or stipulations of this Note, the Loan Agreement or any other document evidencing an obligation to the Lender; (iv) the existence of any Event of Default as defined in the Mortgage or the breach of any provision of any other instrument securing this Note; or (v) any sale, conveyance or transfer of any interest in the property securing this Note in violation of the Loan Agreement.

BORROWER ACKNOWLEDGES AND REPRESENTS THAT THE LOAN EVIDENCED BY THIS NOTE IS A COMMERCIAL TRANSACTION AND THAT THE PROCEEDS OF THE LOAN SHALL NOT BE USED FOR PERSONAL, FAMILY OR HOUSEHOLD PURPOSES. THE BORROWER AND EACH ENDORSER, CO-BORROWER AND GUARANTOR HEREOF HEREBY VOLUNTARILY WAIVE ANY RIGHTS TO NOTICE OR HEARING UNDER CHAPTER 903a OF THE CONNECTICUT GENERAL STATUTES AS NOW OR HEREAFTER AMENDED, OR AS
OTHERWISE REQUIRED BY ANY LAW WITH RESPECT TO ANY PREJUDGMENT REMEDY WHICH THE HOLDER MAY ELECT TO USE.

11. WAIVER, JURY TRIAL WAIVER . BORROWER AND EACH CO-BORROWER, ENDORSER AND GUARANTOR WAIVES PRESENTMENT, DEMAND FOR PAYMENT AND NOTICE OF DISHONOR.

If the whole of the Mortgage Debt shall be declared due and payable by Lender, pursuant to the terms hereof, all such deposits may, at the option of Lender, be applied in reduction of such indebtedness. Upon full payment and satisfaction of this Mortgage or at any prior time, at the election of Lender, the balance of the deposits in its possession shall be paid over to the record owner of the Premises, and no other party shall have any right or claim thereto in any event.

The Borrower shall complete and pay for, within a reasonable time, any structure at any time in the process of construction on the Premises. All such work shall be done promptly and in a good and workmanlike manner.
Section 7. Alteration or Demolition . Except as expressly permitted in the Loan Agreement, no building or other improvement now or hereafter located on the Premises shall be materially structurally altered, removed or demolished without Lenders express prior written consent, nor shall any Service Equipment be removed at any time without like consent unless actually replaced by an article of equal suitability and at least equal value owned by Borrower, free and clear of any security interest or any reservation of title thereto. Any such changes, additions and alterations shall become part of the Mortgaged Property immediately upon installation. Any replacement of Service Equipment shall constitute Service Equipment and be subject to the lien of this Mortgage.
Section 8. Compliance with Law, Etc .
(a) Borrower shall promptly comply in all material respects, with all existing and future federal, state and local laws, orders, ordinances, governmental rules and regulations or court orders affecting Borrower, the Mortgaged Property, or the use thereof, including, without limitation, Prescribed Laws (collectively, Applicable Laws ) and the terms of each insurance policy applicable to the Mortgaged Property. The term Prescribed Laws shall mean, collectively, (1) the Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism Act of 2001 (Public Law 107-56) (The USA PATRIOT Act), (2) Executive Order No. 13224 on Terrorist Financing, effective September 24, 2001, and relating to Blocking Property and Prohibiting Transactions With Persons Who Commit, Threaten to Commit, or Support Terrorism, (3) the International Emergency Economic Power Act, 50 U.S.C. §1701 et. seq. and (4) all other legal requirements relating to money laundering or terrorism.
(b) Borrower shall from time to time, upon Lenders request, provide Lender with evidence reasonably satisfactory to Lender that each of Borrower and the Mortgaged Property complies with all Applicable Laws or is exempt from compliance with Applicable Laws.
(c) Notwithstanding any provisions set forth herein or in any document regarding Lenders approval of alterations of the Mortgaged Property, Borrower shall not alter the
Mortgaged Property in any manner which would materially increase Borrowers responsibilities for compliance with Applicable Laws without the prior written approval of Lender (it being understood that Lender has consented to the tenant improvements to be constructed under the Required Lease [as defined in the Loan Agreement]). Lenders approval of the plans, specifications, or working drawings for alterations of the Mortgaged Property shall create no responsibility or liability on behalf of Lender for their completeness, design, sufficiency or their compliance with Applicable Laws. The foregoing shall apply to tenant improvements constructed by Borrower or by any of its tenants. Lender may condition any such approval upon receipt of a certificate of compliance with Applicable Laws from an independent architect, engineer, or other person acceptable to Lender.
(d) In the event of any discharge, spillage, uncontrolled loss, seepage or filtration of oil or petroleum or chemical liquids or solid, liquid or gaseous products or hazardous waste which, if contained or removed or mitigated by the State of Connecticut, would give rise to a lien under Connecticut General Laws Section 22a-452a, as amended (a Spill ) affecting the Mortgaged Property. whether or not the same originates or emanates from the Mortgaged Property or any contiguous real estate, the Borrower shall or shall cause its tenant(s) to contain, remove or mitigate same in a timely manner and in accordance with any directives of the State of Connecticut. If the Borrower shall fail to remedy such Spill or otherwise comply with any of the requirements of Chapter 446K of the Connecticut General Statutes Revision of 1958, as amended (the Act ) or related regulations, or any similar applicable federal laws or regulations, including the assertion of any lien thereunder or related regulations or any other environmental law or regulation, the Lender may at its election, but without the obligation to do so, give such notices and/or cause such work to be performed at the Mortgaged Property and/or take any and all other actions as the Lender shall deem necessary or advisable in order to remedy the Spill or cure such failure of compliance, and any amounts paid as a result thereof shall be reimbursed by the Borrower upon demand by the Lender, shall bear interest at the Default Rate provided for in the Notes and shall be secured by the lien of this Mortgage.
(e) In addition to any other notices required under this Mortgage, the Borrower shall promptly notify the Lender of the (1) receipt of written notice from any governmental authority relating to the Mortgaged Property; (2) receipt of any written notice from the holder of any other lien or security interest in the Mortgaged Property; or (3) commencement of any judicial or administrative proceedings by or against or otherwise affecting the Borrower or the Mortgaged Property of which Borrower has received written notice.
Section 9. Right to Enter Premises . During the existence of a default in the performance of or compliance with the terms, covenants and conditions set forth in the Note or this Mortgage beyond applicable cure periods, Lender shall have the right forthwith and without notice to enter into and upon the Premises, take possession thereof, and collect the rents, issues and profits therefrom, with or without the appointment of a receiver, and to apply the same, after payment of reasonable collection, management and attorneys fees, in reduction of the Mortgage Debt in such manner or proportion as Lender may elect.
Section 10. Sale, Encumbrance and Use .
(a) Except as otherwise specifically provided in the Loan Agreement, the Borrower shall not, without the Lenders prior written consent which may be withheld in the Lenders sole discretion for any reason whatsoever, (i) initiate or allow any transfer, lease, mortgage or other disposition of, or contract to dispose of, legal or equitable title to all or any part of the Mortgaged Property; (ii) if applicable, change the ownership of, commence an action to dissolve or otherwise effect the dissolution of a corporate or partnership Borrower or guarantor; (iii) if applicable, cause the termination of or change the ownership, the articles of organization, the operating agreement, or the manager of a limited liability company or limited liability partnership Borrower or guarantor; (iv) voluntarily create any liens or encumbrances against such title; (v) initiate or allow any change in the nature of the use and occupancy of the Mortgaged Property, including any such change which materially increases the possibility of a Spill; or (vi) record any Declaration of Common Interest Community.
(b) The Borrower will keep the Mortgaged Property free from the claim of all persons supplying labor or materials in connection with the construction or repair of any Improvements constituting a part of the Mortgaged Property.
(c) The Borrower shall promptly notify the Lender if any lien, attachment or encumbrance is recorded against the Mortgaged Property without the Borrowers consent and will cause the lien to be cancelled and discharged of record within sixty (60) days after its recording.
Section 11. Leases . The Borrower will not, without the prior written consent of the Lender: (a) cancel or terminate any Lease, or consent to any cancellation, termination or surrender thereof, of any assignment thereof; (b) amend, modify or subordinate any Lease; (c) enter into any new Lease; (d) waive any default under or breach of any Lease; (e) consent to any prepayment or discount of rent or advance rent under any Lease; or (f) take any other action in connection with any Lease which may impair or jeopardize the validity of such Lease or the Lenders interest therein. The Lender shall have the right to review and reasonably refuse written consent to any of the above proposed actions of the Borrower based upon the substance of the proposed transaction, the creditworthiness of the Borrower or the tenant, the financial condition of the Mortgaged Property or otherwise.
Section 12. Property Income . The Borrower hereby assigns, transfers and grants a security interest to the Lender in and to the Property Income to secure the Mortgage Debt. The Borrower will not otherwise assign, transfer or encumber the Property Income in any manner. The Borrower may collect and use the Property Income, as the same becomes due and payable, so long as no Event of Default (as defined hereinafter) has occurred, but may not collect the Property Income more than thirty (30) days in advance of the date the same becomes due. This Section shall constitute an absolute and present assignment of the Property Income. The existence or exercise of the Borrowers conditional permission to collect the Property Income shall not operate to subordinate this assignment to any subsequent assignment. The provisions of this Section and the preceding Section regarding Leases are intended to be complementary to any rights given Lender under any separate Assignment of Leases and Rentals from Borrower to Lender and shall be construed accordingly.
Section 13. Appointment of Receiver . Lender shall have the right immediately after any default, upon proceedings being commenced for the foreclosure of this Mortgage, to apply for the appointment of a receiver of the rents and profits of the said Mortgaged Property without notice, and Lender shall be entitled to the appointment of such receiver as a matter of right, without consideration of the value of the Mortgaged Property as security for the amounts due Lender, or the solvency of any person or persons liable for the payment of such amounts.
Section 14. Security Agreement .
(a) This Mortgage is also a security agreement under the Uniform Commercial Code for any of the Mortgaged Property which, under applicable law, may be subject to a security interest under the Uniform Commercial Code, whether acquired now or in the future, and all products and cash and non-cash proceeds thereof (collectively, UCC Collateral ). Borrower (as Debtor) hereby grants to Lender (as Creditor and Secured Party) a security interest in the UCC Collateral. This Mortgage is a self-operative security agreement and fixture filing for the purpose of creating and perfecting a security interest in all of the UCC Collateral. Borrower hereby agrees that the Lender is authorized, without the need of signature by the Borrower, to file financing statements naming the Borrower as debtor from time to time and in such form as the Lender may require to perfect and maintain a security interest with respect to the UCC Collateral. Borrower shall pay all filing costs and all costs and expenses of any record searches for financing statements that Lender may require. Without the prior written consent of Lender, Borrower shall not create or permit to exist any other lien or security interest in any of the UCC Collateral. If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Lender shall have the remedies of a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code, in addition to all remedies provided by this Mortgage or existing under applicable law. In exercising any remedies, Lender may exercise its remedies against the UCC Collateral separately or together, and in any order, without in any way affecting the availability of Lenders other remedies. This Mortgage constitutes a financing statement with respect to any part of the Mortgaged Property which is or may become a fixture.
(b) It is hereby expressly declared and agreed that, to the extent permitted by law, all items of Service Equipment, all accessions, renewals, substitutions and replacements thereof and thereto and all other items included in the Mortgaged Property are, and at all times and for all purposes shall be deemed to be, part and parcel of the real property encumbered by this Mortgage and appropriated to the use of such real property, whether or not any such item is affixed or annexed to such real property and whether or not any such item is or shall be identified by serial number or otherwise referred to or reflected in any recital or list contained in this Mortgage or in any financing statement filed or recorded in connection herewith. Neither anything set forth in this Section nor the filing or recording of any such financing statement in the records for personal property security interests shall be construed as in any way derogating from or otherwise impairing the effectiveness of the aforesaid declaration. The mention in any such financing statement of any particular item included in the Mortgaged Property shall not be construed as in any way altering the rights of Lender with respect thereto pursuant to this Mortgage or the priority of the lien of this Mortgage with respect thereto. Any and all such financing statements are intended to be for the protection of Lender in the event that any court shall determine that the priority of the lien of this Mortgage with respect to any part of the
Mortgaged Property requires the recording or filing of notice in the records for personal property security interests.
Section 15. Events of Default . Any one or more of the following shall constitute an Event of Default hereunder and under the Note:
(a) The failure to pay the Mortgage Debt in full by the Maturity Date as defined in the Note, or the failure to pay any other installment of principal and/or interest or any other sums due with respect to the Mortgage Debt upon maturity or within the time period specified in the Note;
(b) The occurrence of an Event of Default (as defined therein) under any Loan Documents beyond any grace periods set forth in said agreements, if any;
(c) The failure to pay the premiums on or keep in force any insurance required under Section 3;

(e) The transfer, encumbrance or change in use of, or other action or non-action with respect to, the Property or the composition of the Borrower in contravention of the provisions of Section 10 hereof or the Borrowers failure to have any lien, attachment or encumbrance which is enforced or levied against the Mortgaged Property without the Lenders consent (other than the lien for ad valorem taxes not yet due) discharged, released and/or satisfied within the time provided for in Section 10;
(f) The occurrence of any of the following events: (i) a change, without the Lenders prior written consent, in the nature of the use or occupancy of the Mortgaged Property which materially increases the possibility of a Spill, (ii) the failure of the Borrower to contain, remove or mitigate any Spill in accordance with the terms of applicable law, or (iii) the Borrowers failure to, upon request, reimburse the State of Connecticut or the Lender for any amounts expended by them with respect to any Spill;
(g) The assignment of the whole or any part of the Leases or Property Income except as permitted herein;
(h) The actual or threatened waste, removal or demolition of, or material alteration to, any part of the Mortgaged Property without the Lenders prior written consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed;
(i) The failure to observe or perform any other covenants of the Borrower contained in this Mortgage for a period of thirty (30) days after the occurrence of such failure;
(j) The existence of a default under, or demand for the payment of, any other note or obligation secured by a mortgage on or security interest in the Mortgaged Property;
(k) The cancellation, revocation, suspension or failure to receive a grant or renewal of any and all licenses and permits pertaining to or necessary for the operation of the business of the Borrower or any tenant on the Mortgaged Property;
(1) The material impairment of the value of any part of the Mortgaged Property by condemnation or casualty;
(m) The existence of a default under, or demand for the payment of any other note or obligation of the Borrower to the Lender;

(o) The passage or enforcement of any federal, state or local law, or the rendition of a final decision of any court in any way materially impairing the Lenders ability to charge and collect the interest stated under the Loan, including without limitation, the ability to vary the interest payable under the Loan in accordance with the terms hereof.
Section 16. Remedies . During the existence of an Event of Default, the Lender may take any one or more of the following remedial steps:
(a) Acceleration . The Lender may declare, without demand or notice to the Borrower, the outstanding principal amount of the Note and the interest accrued thereon, and the Mortgage Debt, to be due and payable immediately, and upon such declaration such principal and interest and other sums shall immediately become, and be, due and payable.
(b) Foreclosure . The Lender may foreclose this Mortgage and exercise its rights as a secured party for all or any portion of the Mortgage Debt which is then due and payable, subject to the continuing lien of this Mortgage for the balance not then due and payable.

and the Lender or its agents shall have the further power and authority to sue for or otherwise collect and receive all Property Income.
(ii) The Borrower hereby waives to the fullest extent permitted by law all rights to prior notice or court hearing in connection with any action by the Lender of the types set forth in subsection (i) above, and the Borrower further waives any requirement that Lender provide any bond, surety, or other security in connection with any said action.
(iii) In the event the Lender or a receiver enters upon and takes possession and control of the Mortgaged Property and/or the Property Income pursuant to subsection (i) above, said person or entity shall, in addition to such other rights and powers as may subsequently be authorized, have the right and power to (1) operate, manage and control the Mortgaged Property and exercise all the rights and powers of the Borrower in its name or otherwise with respect to the same; (2) make all necessary and proper maintenance repairs, replacements, and improvements to the Mortgaged Property; (3) collect and receive all Property Income; and (4) enforce all terms of existing contracts pertaining to the Mortgaged Property and enter into such new contracts as the Lender or the receiver may determine necessary in its sole discretion.

(v) The Lender, its agents, or any receiver acting pursuant to subsection (i) above shall in no event be liable or accountable for more monies than actually are received from the Mortgaged Property during the period which the Lender, its agents or any receiver actually is in possession and control of the Mortgaged Property. Neither the Lender, its agents or any receiver shall be liable or accountable in any manner for the failure to collect Property Income for any reason whatsoever.
(vi) All costs, expenses and liabilities of every character by the Lender in managing, operating and maintaining the Mortgaged Property, not paid from Property Income as hereinabove provided, shall constitute Lender Advances pursuant to Section 18.
(vii) In the event of foreclosure, the Lender, its agents or any receiver acting pursuant to subsection (a) above may remain in possession of the Mortgaged Property until (1) the foreclosure sale; (2) the redemption of the Mortgaged Property; or (3) if a

(b) The Lender may, without notice or demand, pay any amount which the Borrower has failed to pay, or perform any act which the Borrower has failed to perform hereunder.

Section 21. No Waiver . Time and punctuality shall be of the essence in this Mortgage, but any delay or failure by the Lender to exercise any right or remedy available to it upon the occurrence of an Event of Default hereunder shall not constitute a waiver of such Event of Default or relinquishment of the right in the future to enforce strict compliance by the Borrower with all of the covenants, conditions and agreements herein, or of the right to exercise any such rights or remedies if such Event of Default by the Borrower be continued or repeated. No modification, amendment, change or discharge of any term or provision of this Mortgage shall be valid or binding unless the same is in writing and signed by the Lender and the Borrower.

Section 22. No Merger . In the event the Lender shall acquire title to the Mortgaged Property by conveyance from the Borrower or as a result of the foreclosure of any other mortgage which the Lender at any time holds with respect to the Mortgaged Property, this Mortgage shall not merge in the fee of the Mortgaged Property but shall remain and continue as an existing and enforceable lien for the Mortgage Debt secured hereby until the same shall be released of record by the Lender in writing.
Section 23. Future Advances . This is an Open-End Mortgage and the holder hereof shall have all of the rights, powers and protection to which the holder of any Open-End Mortgage is entitled under Connecticut law. Upon request the Lender may, in its discretion, make future advances to the Borrower. Any future advance, and the interest payable thereon, shall be secured by this Mortgage when evidenced by a promissory note stating that the note is secured hereby.

Section 27. Invalid Provisions . If any term or provision herein is judicially determined invalid or unenforceable, then the same shall either be severed from this Mortgage or if possible reduced in scope to the extent necessary to be valid or enforceable.
Section 28. Interpretation . In this Mortgage, unless the context otherwise requires:

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned, WU/LH 15 PROGRESS L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company, having an address of 60 Hempstead Avenue, Suite 718, West Hempstead, New York 11552 (hereinafter called Borrower ), promises to pay to the order of PEOPLES UNITED BANK, a federal savings bank having an office at 850 Main Street, Bridgeport, Connecticut 06604 (the Lender ), the principal sum of TWO MILLION SEVEN HUNDRED THOUSAND AND 00/100 ($2,700,000.00) , plus interest, payable at the rate and in the manner provided in paragraphs 1 and 2 of this Note, together with all taxes assessed upon said sum against the holder hereof, and any costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys fees, incurred in the collection of this Note, the foreclosure of the Open-End Mortgage Deed and Security Agreement from Borrower to Lender and dated of even date herewith (the Mortgage ) securing, inter alia, this Note or in enforcing the terms and conditions of that certain Loan and Security Agreement entered into by and between the Borrower and the Lender and dated of even date herewith (the Loan Agreement ) or in protecting or sustaining the lien of said Mortgage. Said amounts of principal, interest, fees, costs and expenses are collectively referred to in this Note as the Entire Note Balance .
1. INTEREST RATE .
(a) The outstanding principal balance of this Note shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to five and twenty-three-hundredths percent (5.23%) commencing on the date hereof and continuing until the Maturity Date (as hereinafter defined) or the sooner imposition of the Default Rate (as hereinafter defined)
(b) Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, as defined in this Note, the Mortgage or the Loan Agreement, the entire principal amount of this Note and all interest and other sums due thereon, at the option of Lender shall become immediately due and payable. Should an Event of Default occur, the outstanding balance of the loan shall bear interest at the rate set forth above plus five percent (5%) per annum (the Default Rate ).
2. PAYMENTS .
(a) Commencing on November 1, 2010 and on the first day of each successive month thereafter through and including the Maturity Date, principal and interest shall be payable in equal monthly installments in arrears in an amount equal to the sum necessary to fully amortize the loan at the interest rate then in effect over an assumed term of twenty five (25) years (the Amortization Period ). Accordingly, commencing on November 1, 2010 and on the first day of each month thereafter through and including the Maturity Date, principal and interest shall be payable in successive equal monthly installments of Sixteen Thousand Two Hundred Sixty-Three and 65/100 Dollars ($16.263.65). On even date herewith, Borrower has prepaid interest that will accrue on the Note during the month of September, 2010.
(b) All interest shall be computed on a daily basis and calculated on the basis of a three hundred sixty (360) day year for the actual number of days elapsed, to be payable in arrears on the unpaid principal balance outstanding.
(c) All monthly payments of principal and/or interest required pursuant to the terms of this Note shall, at Lenders option, be made together with one-twelfth (1/12) of the annual real estate taxes, insurance premiums and other charges and assessments which may accrue against the property if the same are being escrowed pursuant to the Mortgage.
3. MATURITY . The Entire Note Balance, if not sooner paid, shall be due and payable without notice or demand on October 1, 2020 (the Maturity Date ).
4. PREPAYMENT PENALTY . Borrower may prepay this Note in whole or in part at any time only upon thirty (30) days prior notice (which may be revoked by the Borrower) to Lender (the Prepayment Notice ) and the payment to Lender of a prepayment fee (the Prepayment Fee ). The Prepayment Fee shall be equal the Net Loss (as defined below).
As used herein, the term Net Loss means the economic loss the Lender sustains or incurs as a result of such prepayment, and the Borrower and the Lender agree that said economic loss shall be calculated as follows:
(a) The Lender shall first determine the Index Rate. The Index Rate shall mean the index used to determine the interest rate payable by Borrower on the Prepayment Date. For purposes of this Note, the Index Rate shall be three and twenty-three-hundredths percent (3.23%).
(b) Utilizing the Index Rate, the Lender shall then calculate the monthly interest amount payable from the Prepayment Date to the Termination Date, defined as the Maturity Date. The result is the Monthly Index Payment .
(c) Utilizing the Reinvestment Rate (defined below), the Lender shall then calculate the monthly interest that would be earned by reinvesting the principal amount being prepaid for each month remaining until the Termination Date. The result is the Monthly Reinvestment Payment . The Reinvestment Rate shall be defined as the rate (as of the date Lender accepts the Borrowers voluntary or involuntary prepayment or accelerates the indebtedness) available to Lender for the investment in U.S. Treasury Obligations ( Treasury Obligation ) with a maturity closest to, or co-terminus with, the Termination Date. If the Lender identifies more than one Treasury Obligation having the same maturity date, the Treasury Obligation having a coupon interest rate closest to the interest rate payable under the Loan as of the Prepayment Date shall be used.
(d) Each Monthly Reinvestment Payment shall then be subtracted from the corresponding Monthly Index Payment; the result, if positive, is the Monthly Payment Differential . The Monthly Payment Differential shall in no event be less than zero.
(e) Each Monthly Payment Differential shall then be discounted to present value at the Reinvestment Rate. The result is the Discounted Monthly Payment Differential .
(f) All of the Discounted Monthly Payment Differential amounts shall then be added together, and such aggregated amount shall constitute the Net Loss .
Notwithstanding the Prepayment Fee specified above, there will be no Prepayment Fee or prohibition against prepayment during the period thirty (30) days prior to the Maturity Date. The Borrower shall be responsible, in addition to any Prepayment Fee, for the payment of any reasonable out-of-pocket third party administrative costs incurred by Lender in connection with such prepayment. If this Note shall be accelerated for any reason whatsoever, the applicable Prepayment Fee in effect as of the date of such acceleration shall be paid. All partial prepayments of principal shall be accompanied by and applied first to the payment of costs and expenses thereto unpaid late charges, then to accrued and unpaid interest and the balance on account of the unpaid principal in the inverse order of maturity. Partial prepayments shall not affect the Borrowers obligation to make the regular installments of principal and interest required under the terms of this Note.
5. APPLICATION OF PAYMENTS . Payments will be applied first to fully pay costs and expenses incurred by holder in collecting this Note or in sustaining and/or enforcing any security granted to secure this Note, then to fully pay any outstanding late charges or prepayment, then to fully pay accrued interest and the remainder will be applied to principal.
6. LATE CHARGE . Borrower shall pay the holder of this Note a late charge of five percent (5%) of any monthly installment not received by the holder within ten (10) days after the installment is due, to cover the additional expenses involved in handling such overdue installment. This charge shall be in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other remedy the holder of this Note may have and is in addition to any reasonable fees and charges of any agents or attorneys which the holder of this Note is entitled to employ in the Event of Default hereunder, whether authorized herein or by law. Borrower will pay this late charge promptly but only once for each late payment.
7. DEFAULT . During the existence of any Event of Default (as hereinafter defined), the Entire Note Balance shall, at the option of the holder hereof, become immediately due and payable without notice or demand.
An Event of Default is defined as any one of the following: (i) default in the payment of any interest, principal, or other amounts due hereunder during the term of this loan and such default continuing for a period of ten (10) days after the due date thereof; (ii) default in the payment of any principal or other amounts due upon the Maturity Date; (iii) an Event of Default in the performance of any of the other conditions or stipulations of this Note, the Loan Agreement or any other document evidencing an obligation to the Lender; (iv) the existence of any Event of Default as defined in the Mortgage or the breach of any provision of any other instrument securing this Note; or (v) any sale, conveyance or transfer of any interest in the property securing this Note in violation of the Loan Agreement.

BORROWER ACKNOWLEDGES AND REPRESENTS THAT THE LOAN EVIDENCED BY THIS NOTE IS A COMMERCIAL TRANSACTION AND THAT THE PROCEEDS OF THE LOAN SHALL NOT BE USED FOR PERSONAL, FAMILY OR HOUSEHOLD PURPOSES. THE BORROWER AND EACH ENDORSER, CO-BORROWER AND GUARANTOR HEREOF HEREBY VOLUNTARILY WAIVE ANY RIGHTS TO NOTICE OR HEARING UNDER CHAPTER 903a OF THE CONNECTICUT GENERAL STATUTES AS NOW OR HEREAFTER AMENDED, OR AS
OTHERWISE REQUIRED BY ANY LAW WITH RESPECT TO ANY PREJUDGMENT REMEDY WHICH THE HOLDER MAY ELECT TO USE.

Any failure by the holder to exercise any right it may have under this Note is not a waiver of the holders right to exercise the same or any other right at any other time.
10. CHANGES . No agreement by the Lender to change, waive or release the terms of this Note will be valid unless it is in writing and signed by Borrower and the Lender.
11. WAIVER, JURY TRIAL WAIVER . BORROWER AND EACH CO-BORROWER, ENDORSER AND GUARANTOR WAIVES PRESENTMENT, DEMAND FOR PAYMENT AND NOTICE OF DISHONOR.

(n) Guarantor agrees that in the event that this Guaranty is placed in the hands of attorneys for enforcement, Guarantor will reimburse Lender for all expenses incurred, including reasonable attorneys fees.
All representations made in connection herewith shall be deemed to be relied upon by the Lender, notwithstanding any investigation hereinbefore or hereinafter made and shall survive as long as any amounts are owed hereunder. Upon full payment of all obligations of the Borrower to the Lender and the termination of the Loan, whether arising under the Note, the Loan Agreement or any other agreement with the Lender, the representations and warranties and covenants and other continuing agreements of the Guarantor shall terminate and be of no force and effect.
5. Notification of Adverse Changes : Guarantor shall promptly advise Lender in writing of:
(a) All substantial actions, suits or proceedings pending or to its knowledge threatened, at law or in equity, or before any federal, state municipal or other court or
governmental department, commission, board, bureau, agency or instrumentality, domestic or foreign, involving the possibility of judgments, or penalties against Guarantor which are not covered adequately by insurance; and
(b) Any material adverse change in the business or financial condition of Guarantor.
6. Guarantors Obligations Independent : The obligations of Guarantor hereunder are independent of the obligations of Borrower; a separate action or actions may be brought against Guarantor hereon, whether or not action is brought against Borrower or Borrower be joined in any such action or actions. Guarantor waives the benefit of any statute of limitations affecting its liability hereunder or the enforcement hereof.

(a) Proceed against Borrower to recover upon any Indebtedness hereby secured;
(b) Proceed against or exhaust any security held from Borrower;
(c) Pursue any remedy in Lenders power whatsoever. Guarantor waives any defense arising by reason of any disability or other defense of Borrower or by reason of the cessation from any cause whatsoever of the liability of Borrower other than payment of the Indebtedness.
8. Waiver of Subrogation : Guarantor agrees that Guarantor shall have no right of subrogation whatsoever with respect to the aforesaid Indebtedness, or to any monies due or unpaid thereon or any collateral security for the same (unless and until Lender shall have received payment in full of all sums evidenced or at any time secured by the Note, Mortgage and Loan Documents).
9. No Waiver : No failure on the part of Lender to pursue any remedy hereunder shall constitute a waiver on its part of the right to pursue the remedy on the basis of the same or subsequent breach.
10. Acceleration Upon Default : Guarantor acknowledges that the entire outstanding Indebtedness may become immediately due and payable at the option of Lender, pursuant to the Note and/or Mortgage, upon failure of condition hereunder or failure on the part of Guarantor to perform any obligation on its part to be performed hereunder.
11. Enforcement : This Guaranty may be enforced by Lender without first resorting to or exhausting any other security or collateral, or without first having recourse to the Note, or to the personal liability of any maker or endorser thereof, or to the assets or estate of Borrower or of any other party liable for the Note, or to any of the property covered by the Mortgage, or any other Loan Document, through foreclosure proceedings or otherwise, or without first having recourse to any of the Loan Documents; provided, however, that nothing herein contained shall
prevent the Lender from suing on the Note or foreclosing the Mortgage or from exercising any other rights hereunder or under any of the Loan Documents, and if such foreclosure or other remedy is availed of, only the net proceeds therefrom, after deduction of all charges and expenses of every kind and nature whatsoever, shall be applied in reduction of the Indebtedness, and the Lender shall not be required to institute or prosecute proceedings to recover any deficiency as a condition of payment hereunder or enforcement hereof. At any sale of the security or collateral for the Indebtedness or any part hereof whether by foreclosure or otherwise, Lender may at its discretion purchase all or any part of such collateral so sold or offered for sale for its own account and may apply against the amount bid therefor the balance due it pursuant to the terms of the Note, the Mortgage or any of the Loan Documents. Guarantor shall pay, and upon request of Lender shall promptly reimburse Lender for any loss, damage, liability, claim, cost and/or expense (including, without limitation, court costs, collection charges and reasonable attorneys fees and expenses) arising out of or in connection with the Guaranteed Obligations and/or the enforcement of this Guaranty.
12. Successors and Assigns : This Guaranty shall inure to the benefit of Lender and its successors and assigns and shall be binding upon and enforceable against Guarantor and his successors, assigns, heirs, executors, and administrators.
13. Governing Law; Venue . This Guaranty shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Connecticut. Any action or proceeding to enforce this Guaranty or under any agreement, instrument or other document contemplated hereby or related hereto; directly or indirectly related to or connected with the Loan or the negotiation, administration or enforcement thereof; or arising from the debtor/creditor relationship of the Borrower, Guarantors and the Lender may be brought either in the Superior Court of Connecticut or the United States District Court for the District of Connecticut. The Guarantor agrees that any proceeding instituted in any of such courts shall be of proper venue, and waives any right to challenge the venue of such courts or to seek the transfer or relocation of any such proceeding for any reasons. The Guarantor further agrees that any such courts shall have personal jurisdiction over the Guarantor. Any judgment or decree obtained in any such action or proceeding may be filed or enforced in any other appropriate court.
14. COMMERCIAL WAIVER . GUARANTOR ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THE TRANSACTIONS TO WHICH THIS GUARANTY RELATES ARE COMMERCIAL TRANSACTIONS. GUARANTOR HEREBY VOLUNTARILY AND KNOWINGLY WAIVES HIS RIGHTS TO NOTICE AND HEARING UNDER CHAPTER 903a OF THE CONNECTICUT GENERAL STATUTES, AS AMENDED AND IN EFFECT ON THE DATE HEREOF, OR AS OTHERWISE ALLOWED BY ANY STATE OR FEDERAL LAW WITH RESPECT TO ANY PREJUDGMENT REMEDY OR OTHER RIGHT OR REMEDY THAT THE LENDER MAY ELECT TO USE OR OF WHICH IT MAY AVAIL ITSELF. GUARANTOR FURTHER WAIVES, TO THE GREATEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE BENEFITS OF ALL PRESENT AND FUTURE VALUATION, APPRAISEMENT, EXEMPTION, STAY, REDEMPTION AND MORATORIUM LAWS.
15. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL : GUARANTOR WAIVES A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION WITH RESPECT TO THIS GUARANTY AND AS TO ANY ISSUES
ARISING RELATING TO THIS GUARANTY OR TO THE INSTRUMENTS SECURING THIS GUARANTY. GUARANTOR ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THIS WAIVER MAY DEPRIVE GUARANTOR OF AN IMPORTANT RIGHT, AND THAT SUCH WAIVER HAS BEEN KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY MADE.
16. Miscellaneous : Guarantor
(a) Waives diligence, presentment, protest, notice of protest, notice of dishonor, demand for payment, or performance, notice of default or non-performance, extension of time of payment, notice of acceptance of this Guaranty, nonpayment at maturity, and indulgences and notices of every kind, and consents to any and all forbearances and extensions of the time of payment of the Note, the Mortgage or the Loan Documents, and to any and all changes in the terms, covenants, and conditions thereof hereafter made or granted and to any and all substitutions, exchanges, or releases of all or any part of the collateral therefor; waives any right to cause a marshalling of Borrowers assets or to cause Lender to proceed against any other guarantors in any particular order; waives any right to require Lender to apply upon the Note or any Indebtedness hereby guarantied any funds or other property at any time received by or paid to or in the possession of Lender; it being the intention hereof that Guarantor shall remain liable hereunder until the terms, covenants, and conditions of the Note, the Mortgage, and all of the Loan Documents shall have been fully performed and observed by the Borrower, notwithstanding any act, omission, or thing that might otherwise operate as a legal or equitable discharge of Guarantor.
(b) Agrees that if any term, covenant, or condition of this Guaranty, the Note, the Mortgage, or any of the Loan Documents or the application thereof to any person or circumstances shall, to any extent, be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Guaranty, the Note, the Mortgage, or such Loan Documents or the application of such term, covenant, or condition to persons or circumstances other than those as to which it is held invalid or unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby and each term, covenant, or condition of this Guaranty, the Note, the Mortgage, and all Loan Documents shall be valid and be enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law.
(c) Agrees that should Borrower execute in favor of Lender any further security agreement, the exercise by Lender of any right conferred upon it in such security agreement shall be wholly discretionary with Lender and such exercise of, or failure to exercise such right, shall in no way impair or diminish the obligations of Guarantor hereunder. Lender may, without in any manner impairing or diminishing the obligations of Guarantor hereunder, elect to pursue any available remedy against Borrower, against any other party, or against any security held by Lender, whether or not the exercise by Lender of any such remedy shall result in loss to Guarantor of any right of subrogation or right to proceed against Borrower for reimbursement.
(d) Agrees that in the event of any bankruptcy, reorganization, winding up, or similar proceedings with respect to Borrower, no limitation on Borrowers liability under the Note, the Mortgage, or any of the Loan Documents that may now or hereafter be imposed by any federal, state, or other statute, law, regulation, or judicial or administrative determination
applicable to such proceedings shall in any way limit the obligation hereunder of Guarantor, which obligation is coextensive with Borrowers liability as set forth in the Note, the Mortgage, and the Loan Documents without regard to any such limitation. In the event any payment by Borrower to Lender is held to constitute a preference under the bankruptcy laws, or if for any other reason Lender is required to refund such payment or pay the amount thereof to any other party, such payment by Lender to Borrower shall not constitute a release of Guarantor from any liability hereunder, and Guarantor agrees to pay such amount to Lender upon demand.
(e) Agrees that this Guaranty shall be continuing and of full force and effect until the Indebtedness and all renewals or extensions thereof is fully paid.
(f) Guarantor shall furnish to the Lender annually the financial statements and tax returns required pursuant to the Loan Agreement (the Guarantor Financial Statements ).
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Guarantor has caused this Agreement to be executed and delivered the day and year first above written.

AGREEMENT
For good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged and agreed, Borrower and Lender hereby agree as follows:
1. Definitions . Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Loan Agreement.
2. Modification of the Loan Agreement .
(a) The fifth sentence of Section 4.2(d) of the Loan Agreement is hereby amended such that the phrase If an Event of Default exists shall be amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows: If an Event of Default exists for failure of Borrower to pay a liquidated sum of money in accordance with the Loan Agreement or any other Loan Document, or if any other Event of Default exists for which Lender has accelerated the Scheduled Maturity Date,
(b) Section 4.2(e)(ii) of the Loan Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:
(ii) Then, either:
(A) provided no Event of Default exists, the balance of all remaining funds on deposit in the Deposit Accounts shall be disbursed to the Borrower in accordance with such wire instructions as Borrower may have furnished to Lender in writing, or
(B) if an Event of Default exists but (1) such Event of Default did not arise by failure of Borrower to pay a liquidated sum of money in accordance with the Loan Agreement or any other Loan Document, or (2) Lender has not yet accelerated the Scheduled Maturity Date as a result of such non-monetary Event of Default, then Lender shall disburse funds on deposit in the Deposit Accounts up to the minimum amount required in order that GTJ REIT, Inc., a Maryland corporation, may make distributions to its stockholders, so as not to adversely affect the ability of GTJ REIT, Inc., to continue to qualify as a real estate investment trust under Section 857 of the Internal Revenue Code or Section 4981 of the Internal Revenue Code or any other related or successor provisions of the Internal Revenue Code, provided , in no event shall such disbursement from the Deposit Accounts exceed twenty percent (20%) of such minimum distribution required to be made by GTJ REIT, Inc. to its stockholders.
(c) Section 8.2 of the Loan Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:
Section 8.2. Permitted Transfers . Notwithstanding the restrictions in Section 8.1, transfers of direct or indirect interests (meaning interests held by members, partners and/or interest holders of any Person that in turn holds a direct ownership interest in any Individual Borrower) in any Individual Borrower will be permitted without Lenders prior consent, provided in each instance (a) no Event of Default exists as of the transfer date; (b) the transferee is an existing (which for purposes of this subparagraph means a Person that holds such interest as of the Funding Date) member of such Individual Borrower, or an Affiliate of an existing member of such Individual Borrower; (c) following any such transfer, GTJ REIT, Inc. continues to hold direct management and decision making control over such Individual Borrower and the Property; and (d) Lender receives written notice of any such permitted transfer within thirty (30) days following the date of transfer.

In addition, the restrictions in Section 8.1 shall not be deemed to prohibit (i) GTJ Realty, LP, a Delaware limited partnership ( UPREIT ) from issuing additional non-voting limited partnership interests in UPREIT or (ii) existing or future limited partners of UPREIT from selling their non-voting limited partnership interests in UPREIT, provided in each instance of any issuance or sale of such limited partnership interests: (a) following any such issuance or sale, GTJ REIT, Inc. continues to hold (directly or indirectly) sole and exclusive management and decision making control over each Individual Borrower and the Property; (b) following any such issuance or sale, GTJ REIT, Inc. continues to own directly or indirectly one hundred percent (100%) of all general partnership interests in UPREIT; (c) no Event of Default exists as of the date of any such issuance or sale made by UPREIT, GTJ REIT or their respective Affiliates; and (d) Lender receives written notice of any such permitted issuance or sale made by UPREIT, GTJ REIT or their respective Affiliates within thirty (30) days following the date of such issuance or sale.

Lender shall not be required to demonstrate any actual impairment of its security or any increased risk of default in order to declare the Obligations to be immediately due and payable upon a Transfer in violation of this Agreement. This provision shall apply to every Transfer in violation of this Agreement regardless of whether such Transfer was voluntary or not, or whether or not Lender has previously consented to any Transfer.
3. Ratification of Loan Documents . Each of the Loan Documents and the obligations, indebtedness and liabilities of Borrower and Carveout Indemnitor are hereby ratified, reaffirmed and confirmed.
4. Representations and Warranties . Borrower and Carveout Indemnitor each hereby represents and warrants to Lender as follows:

(b) Borrower and Carveout Indemnitor have adequate power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and each other document to which it is party in connection herewith and perform its obligations hereunder and thereunder.

(b) Borrower shall have paid Lender for all other costs and expenses of Lender incurred in connection with the negotiation, preparation and determination of this Agreement, including reasonable attorneys fees;

Nothing herein shall be, construed to be a waiver by the Bank to have any Loan accrue interest at the Default Rate of interest (which shall be calculated from the higher of the LIBOR Rate or the Base Rate) or the right of the Bank to charge and collect a Breakage Fee.
5. SETOFF. The Bank 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 Bank or any of its affiliates or otherwise owing by the Bank or any of its affiliates in any capacity to Borrower or any guarantor or endorser of this Note. Such set-off shall be deemed to have been exercised immediately at the time the Bank or such affiliate elects to do so.

8. PURPOSE. Borrower certifies (a) that no Loan will be used to purchase margin stock except with the Banks express prior written consent for each such purchase and (b) that all Loans shall be used for a business purpose, and not for any personal, family or household purpose.

If Borrower does not revoke such Request or Notice, the Bank may make, or continue the Loans, as proposed by Borrower, in the amount specified in the applicable Request or Notice submitted by Borrower, but such Loans shall be made or continued as Base Rate Loans instead of LIBOR Rate Loans, as the case may be.
c. Illegality. If the Bank 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 Bank to make LIBOR Rate Loans, then, on notice thereof by the Bank to Borrower, the Bank may suspend the making of LIBOR Rate Loans until the Bank shall have notified Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination shall no longer exist. If the Bank shall determine that it is unlawful to maintain any LIBOR Rate Loans, Borrower shall prepay in full all LIBOR Rate Loans then outstanding, together with accrued interest, either on the last date of the Interest Period thereof if the Bank may lawfully continue to maintain such LIBOR Rate Loans to such day, or immediately, if the Bank may not lawfully continue to maintain such LIBOR Rate Loans.

The determination by the Bank of the foregoing amount shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding upon Borrower.

To the extent that such prepayments are insufficient to cause such compliance, the Borrower shall pledge to the Bank, Cash Collateral in an amount equal to the amount of such shortfall, which Cash Collateral shall secure the reimbursement obligations of the Borrower with respect to drawings under Letters of Credit.
f. Amendment Fee. The Borrower shall pay the Bank an amendment fee of $18,000 in connection with this Note. Such amendment fee shall be deemed an Obligation under the Credit Agreement and shall be deemed fully earned upon execution of this Note by Borrower.
g. Early Termination Fee. If Borrower shall terminate the Credit Agreement, this Note or any of the Loans hereunder for any reason, whether by voluntary prepayment or otherwise, or the Obligations (as defined in the Credit Agreement), in each case, prior to September 30, 2013, the Borrower shall pay to Bank an early termination fee in an amount equal $50,000.

Each request for issuance of a Letter of Credit by the Borrower shall be in writing and shall be received by the Bank by no later than 12:00 p.m. (New York, New York time), on the day which is at least two Business Days prior to the proposed date of issuance. Such issuance shall occur by no later than 3:00 p.m. on the proposed date of issuance (assuming proper prior notice as aforesaid). Subject to the terms and conditions contained herein, the expiry date, and the amount and beneficiary of the Letters of Credit will be as designated by the Borrower. Each Letter of Credit issued by the Bank hereunder shall identify: (i) the dates of issuance and expiry of such Letter of Credit, (ii) the amount of such Letter of Credit (which shall be a sum certain), (iii) the beneficiary of such Letter of Credit, and (iv) the drafts and other documents necessary to be presented to the Bank upon drawing thereunder. No Letter of Credit issued hereunder shall expire more than 365 days from the date of issuance or creation thereof, and in no event shall any Letter of Credit mature after the Business Day which is immediately prior to the Maturity Date.
The Borrower agrees to execute and deliver to the Bank such further documents and instruments in connection with any Letter of Credit issued hereunder (including without limitation, applications therefor) as the Bank in accordance with its customary practices may request.
ii . Drawings Under Letters of Credit. The Borrower hereby absolutely and unconditionally promises to pay the Bank the amount of each drawing under a Letter of Credit on the date of such drawing, if the Borrower receives notice of such drawing or payment prior to 12:00 noon, New York, New York time, or if such notice has not been received by the Borrower prior to such time on such date, then not later than 12:00 noon, New York, New York time, on the Business Day immediately following the day that the Borrower receives such notice; provided, however, if any drawing was in an amount not less than the Minimum Borrowing Amount, the Borrower may, subject to the conditions to borrowing set forth herein, request that such payment be financed with a Loan in an equivalent amount, and, to the extent so financed, the Borrowers obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by such Loan.
iii . Letter of Credit Obligations Absolute. (a) The obligation of the Borrower to reimburse the Bank as provided hereunder in respect of drawings under Letters of Credit shall rank pari passu with the obligation of the Borrower to repay the Loans hereunder, and shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the obligation of the Borrower to reimburse the Bank in respect of drawings under Letters of Credit shall not be subject to any defense based on the non-application or misapplication by the beneficiary of the proceeds of any such drawing or the legality, validity, regularity or enforceability of the Letters of Credit or any related document, even though such document shall in fact prove to be invalid, fraudulent or forged, or any dispute between or among the Borrower, the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit or any financial institution or other party to which any Letter of Credit may be transferred. The Bank may accept or pay any draft presented to it under any Letter of Credit regardless of when drawn or made and whether or not negotiated, if such draft, accompanying certificate or documents and any transmittal advice are presented or negotiated on or before the expiry date of such Letter of Credit or any renewal or extension thereof then in effect, and is in substantial compliance with the terms and conditions of such Letter of Credit. Furthermore, neither the Bank nor any of its correspondents shall be responsible, as to any document presented under a Letter of Credit which appears to be regular on its face, and appears on its face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of the Letter of Credit, for the validity or sufficiency of any signature or endorsement, for delay in giving any notice or failure of any instrument to bear adequate reference to the Letter of Credit, or for failure of any Person to note the amount of any draft on the reverse of the Letter of Credit.
(b) Any action, inaction or omission on the part of the Bank or any of its correspondents under or in connection with any Letter of Credit or the related instruments, documents or property, if in good faith and in conformity with such laws, regulations or customs as are applicable, shall be binding upon the Borrower and shall not place the Bank or any of its correspondents under any liability to the Borrower in the absence of (x) gross negligence or willful misconduct by the Bank or its correspondents or (y) the failure by the Bank to pay under a Letter of Credit after presentation of a draft and documents strictly complying with such Letter of Credit unless the Bank is prohibited from making such payment pursuant to a court order. The Banks rights, powers, privileges and immunities specified in or arising under this Agreement are in addition to any heretofore or at any time hereafter otherwise created or arising, whether by statute or rule of law or contract. All Letters of Credit issued hereunder will, except to the extent otherwise expressly provided therein or hereunder, be governed by the Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits (1993 Revision), International Chamber of Commerce, Publication No. 500, and any subsequent revisions thereof.
d. Letter of Credit Fees. The Borrower shall pay to the Bank a commission with respect to each Letter of Credit issued and/or renewed or extended by the Bank in an amount equal to one and three-quarters percent (1.75%) of the stated amount of such Letter of Credit. Such fee shall be paid on the date of issuance thereof and upon each renewal or extension thereof. In addition, the Borrower shall pay to the Bank its customary fronting fees and such other customary fees charged by the Bank with respect to the processing and administration of Letters of Credit (including, without limitation, amendments, renewals, assignments or extensions of Letters of Credit).
e. Delivery of Requests and Notices. Delivery of a Notice or Request for a LIBOR Rate Loan or issuance, amendment, renewal, assignment or extension of a Letter of Credit shall be made to the Bank at the following address, or such other address designated by the Bank from time to time:
Manufacturers and Traders Trust Company
401 Broad Hollow Road
Melville, New York 11747
Attn: Lisa Congemi-Doutney, VP
Fax No. (631) 501-4138
Telephone No. (631) 501-4131
f. Use of Proceeds. The proceeds of the Credit Loans shall be used for Permitted Acquisitions and for general working capital and other corporate purposes. Letters of Credit shall be issued by the Bank for the account of the Borrower and shall be issued, for purposes in connection with, and in the ordinary course of, the business of the Borrower consistent with historical purposes of the Borrower prior to the date hereof.
4. CONTINUATION AND CONVERSION.
a. Election. An Authorized Person may, upon irrevocable Request to the Bank in accordance with subsection (b) below, elect to continue, as of the last day of the applicable Interest Period, any or a portion (subject to the Minimum Borrowing Amount limitation) of any LIBOR Rate Loan with the same or a different Interest Period, provided no partial continuation of a LIBOR Rate Loan with a different Interest Period shall reduce the outstanding principal amount of the remaining LIBOR Rate Loan with the same Interest Period to less than the Minimum Borrowing Amount.
b. Notice of Continuation.
i. For an election under Section 4(a) above, an Authorized Person must deliver to the Bank, by 2:00 p.m. (Eastern Standard Time) on a New York Business Day, a Notice of Continuation for an election under Section 4(a) (Notice of Continuation or Notice), specifying:
(a) the aggregate amount of each LIBOR Rate Loan to be continued;
(b) the applicable LIBOR Rate selection and corresponding Interest Period duration for each LIBOR Rate Loan to be continued (see LIBOR Rate definition above); and
(c) whether the Automatic Continuation Option will be in effect for each such LIBOR Rate Loan. The Automatic Continuation Option shall be in effect for each LIBOR Rate Loan, unless otherwise specified by Borrower in writing.
ii. For any election in accordance with Section 4(b)(i) above, the Continuation Date shall be the later of (A) the last day of the applicable Interest Period, or (B) two (2) Joint Business Days following the date the Bank receives the Notice of Continuation, except as otherwise determined by the Bank in its sole discretion. If a Notice is received after 2:00 p.m. (Eastern Standard Time) on any New York Business Day, such Notice will be deemed to have been received on the next New York Business Day. Accordingly, as an example, if Borrower has a LIBOR Rate Loan with a one month Interest Period ending on June 15 and wants to continue the LIBOR Rate Loan with a two month Interest Period, Borrower must deliver to the Bank an appropriate Notice of Continuation by no later than 2:00 p.m. (Eastern Standard Time) on June 13 (assuming that June 13 is a New York Business Day and June 14 and 15 are Joint Business Days).
iii. For LIBOR Rate Loans with the Automatic Continuation Option in effect, the Bank shall, at the end of each Interest Period, automatically continue such LIBOR Rate Loan with the same Interest Period.
iv. The Bank may take action on any Notice in reliance upon any oral, telephonic, written or teletransmitted Notice that the Bank in good faith believes to be valid and to have been made by Borrower or on behalf of Borrower by an Authorized Person. No Notice may be delivered by e-mail. The Bank may act on the Notice from any Authorized Person until the Bank shall have received from Borrower, and had a reasonable time to act on, written notice revoking the authority of such Authorized Person. The Bank shall incur no liability to Borrower or to any other person as a direct or indirect result of acting on any Notice under this Note. The Bank, in its sole discretion, may reject any Notice that is incomplete.
c. Expiration of Interest Period. With respect to any LIBOR Rate Loan for which an Automatic Continuation Option is not in effect, if Borrower does not deliver to the Bank an appropriate Notice of Continuation (in accordance with the terms hereof) at least two (2) Joint Business Days before the end of an Interest Period, the Bank shall have the right (but not the obligation) to immediately, and without notice, convert such LIBOR Rate Loan into a Base Rate Loan and such Loan shall accrue interest at the Base Rate until two (2) Joint Business Days after the Bank receives an appropriate Notice (in accordance with the terms hereof) electing to convert the Loan from a Base Rate Loan to a LIBOR Rate Loan. A Notice of Continuation received one (I) Joint Business Day before the end of an Interest Period may not effectuate a continuation of such Loan as a LIBOR Rate Loan as of the last day of the Interest Period. Rather, such LIBOR Rate Loan may be converted (in the manner described above) to a Base Rate Loan on the last day of the Interest Period. Such Notice of Continuation, however, will be effective two (2) Joint Business Days from the date it is received (or deemed to be received) by the Bank.
d. Conversion upon Default. Unless the Bank shall otherwise consent in writing, if (i) Borrower fails to pay when due, in whole or in part, the indebtedness under the Note (whether by acceleration or otherwise), or (ii) there exists any condition or, event which with the passage of time, the giving of notice or both shall constitute an event of default under any of Borrowers agreement with the Bank, if any, the Bank, in its sole discretion, may (i) permit any outstanding LIBOR Rate Loans to continue until the last day of the applicable Interest Period at which time such Loan shall automatically be converted into a Base Rate Loan or (ii) convert any outstanding LIBOR Rate Loans into a Base Rate Loan before the end of the applicable Interest Period applicable to such LIBOR Rate Loan. Nothing herein shall be construed to be a waiver by the Bank to have any Loan accrue interest at the Default Rate of interest (which shall be calculated from the higher of the LIBOR Rate or the Base Rate) or the right of the Bank to charge and collect a Breakage Fee.
5. SETOFF. The Bank 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 Bank or any of its affiliates or otherwise owing by the Bank or any of its affiliates in any capacity to Borrower or any guarantor or endorser of this Note. Such set-off shall be deemed to have been exercised immediately at the time the Bank or such affiliate elects to do so.
6. FACILITY.
a. Generally. Any Request for a Loan hereunder shall be limited in amount, such that the sum of (i) the principal amount of such Request; (ii) the Outstanding Principal Amount under this Note; and (iii) the aggregate face amounts of (or, if greater, Borrowers aggregate reimbursement obligations to the Bank (or any of its affiliates) in connection with) any Letters of Credit issued by the Bank (or any of its affiliates) at the request (or for the benefit of) Borrower, pursuant to this facility; does not exceed the Maximum Principal Amount under this Note.
b. Bankruptcy Event. This Note is payable on the Termination Date; provided, however, that the Outstanding Principal Amount of this Note and all accrued and unpaid interest shall automatically become immediately due and payable if Borrower commences, or has commenced against it (and is not dismissed within 45 days), 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 dissolution, liquidation or the settlement of claims against or winding up of affairs of Borrower (a Bankruptcy Event), or upon the occurrence of a Bankruptcy Event with regard to any guarantor or endorser of this Note.
Borrower hereby waives protest, presentment and notice of any kind in connection with this Note.
7. BANK RECORDS CONCLUSIVE. The Bank shall set forth on a schedule attached to this Note or maintained on computer, the date and original principal amount of each Loan and the date and amount of each payment to be applied to the Outstanding Principal Amount of this Note. The Outstanding Principal Amount set forth on any such schedule shall be presumptive evidence of the Outstanding Principal Amount of this Note and of all Loans. No failure by the Bank to make, and no error by the Bank in making, any annotation on any such schedule shall affect the Borrowers obligation to pay the principal and interest of each Loan or any other obligation of Borrower to the Bank pursuant to this Note.
8. PURPOSE. Borrower certifies (a) that no Loan will be used to purchase margin stock except with the Banks express prior written consent for each such purchase and (b) that all Loans shall be used for a business purpose, and not for any personal, family or household purpose.
9. AUTHORIZATION. Borrower, if a corporation, partnership, limited liability company, trust or other entity, represents that it is duly organized and in good standing or duly constituted in the state of its organization and is duly authorized to do business in all jurisdictions material to the conduct of its business; that the execution, delivery and performance of this Note have been duly authorized by all necessary regulatory and corporate or partnership action or by its governing instrument; that this Note has been duly executed by an authorized officer, partner or trustee and constitutes a binding obligation enforceable against Borrower and not in violation of any law, court order or agreement by which Borrower is bound; and that Borrowers performance is not threatened by any pending or threatened litigation.
10. INABILITY TO DETERMINE LIBOR RATES, INCREASED COSTS, ILLEGALITY.
a. Increased Costs. If the Bank 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 the 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 Bank of agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining any LIBOR Rate Loans, then Borrower shall be liable for, and shall from time to time, upon demand therefor by the Bank, pay to the Bank such additional amounts as are sufficient to compensate the Bank for such increased costs.
b. Inability to Determine Rates. If the Bank shall determine that for any reason adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining LIBOR for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed LIBOR Rate Loan, the Bank will give notice of such determination to Borrower. Thereafter, the Bank may not make or maintain LIBOR Rate Loans, as the case may be, hereunder until the Bank revokes such notice in writing. Upon receipt of such notice, Borrower may revoke any pending Request or Notice with respect to a LIBOR Rate Loan. If Borrower does not revoke such Request or Notice, the Bank may make, or continue the Loans, as proposed by Borrower, in the amount specified in the applicable Request or Notice submitted by Borrower, but such Loans shall be made or continued as Base Rate Loans instead of LIBOR Rate Loans, as the case may be.
c. Illegality. If the Bank 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 Bank to make LIBOR Rate Loans, then, on notice thereof by the Bank to Borrower, the Bank may suspend the making of LIBOR Rate Loans until the Bank shall have notified Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination shall no longer exist. If the Bank shall determine that it is unlawful to maintain any LIBOR Rate Loans, Borrower shall prepay in full all LIBOR Rate Loans then outstanding, together with accrued interest, either on the last date of the Interest Period thereof if the Bank may lawfully continue to maintain such LIBOR Rate Loans to such day, or immediately, if the Bank may not lawfully continue to maintain such LIBOR Rate Loans. If Borrower is required to prepay any LIBOR Rate Loan immediately as set forth in this subsection, then concurrently with such prepayment, Borrower may borrow from the Bank, in the amount of such repayment, a Base Rate Loan.
11. MISCELLANEOUS. This Note, together with any related loan and security agreements and guaranties, contains the entire agreement between the Bank and Borrower with respect to the Note, and supersedes every course of dealing, other conduct, oral agreement and representation previously made by the Bank. All rights and remedies of the Bank under applicable law and this Note or amendment of any provision of this Note are cumulative and not exclusive. No single, partial or delayed exercise by the Bank of any right or remedy shall preclude the subsequent exercise by the Bank at any time of any right or remedy of the Bank without notice. No waiver or amendment of any provision of this Note shall be effective unless made specifically in writing by the Bank. No course of dealing or other conduct, no oral agreement or representation made by the Bank, and no usage of trade, shall operate as a waiver of any right or remedy of the Bank. No waiver of any right or remedy of the Bank shall be effective unless made specifically in writing by the Bank. Borrower agrees that in any legal proceeding a copy of this Note kept in the Banks 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 Bank 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.
12. NOTICES. Any demand or notice hereunder or under any applicable law pertaining hereto shall be in writing and duly given if delivered to Borrower (at its address on the Banks records) or to the Bank (at the address on page one and separately to the Bank officer responsible for Borrowers relationship with the Bank). 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) New York Business Days after deposit in an official depository maintained by the United States Post Office for the collection of mail or one (1) New York 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 Bank.
13. JOINT AND SEVERAL. If there is more than one Borrower, each of them shall be jointly and severally liable for all amounts which become due under this Note and the term Borrower shall include each as well as all of them.
14. GOVERNING LAW; JURISDICTION. This Note has been delivered to and accepted by the Bank and will be deemed to be made in the State of New York. This Note will be interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of New York excluding its conflict of laws rules. BORROWER HEREBY IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF ANY STATE OR FEDERAL COURT IN THE STATE OF NEW YORK IN NASSAU COUNTY OR SUFFOLK COUNTY, AND CONSENTS THAT THE BANK MAY EFFECT ANY SERVICE OF PROCESS IN THE MANNER AND AT BORROWERS ADDRESS SET FORTH ABOVE FOR PROVIDING NOTICE OR DEMAND; PROVIDED THAT NOTHING CONTAINED IN THIS NOTE WILL PREVENT THE BANK 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 Bank and Borrower. Borrower waives any objection to venue and any objection based on a more convenient forum in any action instituted under this Note.
15. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. BORROWER AND THE BANK HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY, AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY BORROWER AND THE BANK 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 BANK HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT THE BANK WILL NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THIS JURY TRIAL WAIVER. BORROWER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THE BANK HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS NOTE BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION.
x Amended and Restated Note. The Borrower acknowledges, agrees and understands that this Note is given in replacement of and in substitution for, but not in payment of, a prior note dated on or about August 26, 2011, in the original principal amount of $10,000,000, given by GTJ REIT, INC. in favor of the Bank (or its predecessor-in-interest), as the same may have been amended or modified from time to time (Prior Note), and further, that: (a) the obligations of GTJ as evidenced by the Prior Note shall continue in full force and effect, as amended and restated by this Note and as joined by FARM SPRINGS ROAD, LLC, all of such obligations being hereby ratified and confirmed by the Borrower; (b) any and all liens, pledges, assignments and security interests securing the Borrowers obligations under the Prior Note shall continue in full force and effect, are hereby ratified and confirmed by the Borrower, and are hereby acknowledged by the Borrower to secure, among other things, all of the Borrowers obligations to the Bank under this Note, with the same priority, operation and effect as that relating to the obligations under the Prior Note; and (c) nothing herein contained shall be construed to extinguish, release, or discharge, or constitute, create, or effect a novation of, or an agreement to extinguish, the obligations of the Borrower with respect to the indebtedness originally described in the Prior Note or any of the liens, pledges, assignments and security interests securing such obligations.
Preauthorized Transfers from Deposit Account.

The Borrowers shall jointly and severally pay to the Bank on demand all reasonable costs and expenses (including all fees and disbursements of counsel retained for advice, suit, appeal or other proceedings or purpose and of any experts or agents it may retain), which the Bank may incur in connection with (i) the administration of the Obligations, including any administrative fees the Bank may impose for the preparation of discharges, releases or assignments to third-parties; (ii) the enforcement and collection of any Obligations or any guaranty thereof; (iv) the exercise, performance ,enforcement or protection of any of the rights of the Bank hereunder; or (v) the failure of any Borrower to perform or observe any provisions hereof. After such demand for payment of any cost, expense or fee under this Section or elsewhere under this Agreement, the Borrower shall pay interest at the highest default rate specified in any instrument evidencing any of the Obligations from the date payment is demanded by the Bank to the date reimbursed by the Borrowers.
All such costs, expenses or fees under this Agreement shall be added to the Obligations.
8. TERMINATION. This Agreement shall remain in full force and effect until (i) all Obligations outstanding, or contracted or committed for (whether or not outstanding), shall be finally and irrevocably paid in full and (ii) all Transaction Documents have been terminated by the Bank.
9. RIGHT OF SETOFF. If an Event of Default occurs, the Bank shall have the right to set off against the amounts owing under this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents any property held in a deposit or other account or otherwise with the Bank or its Affiliates or otherwise owing by the Bank or its Affiliates in any capacity to any Borrower or any guarantor of, or endorser of any of the Transaction Documents evidencing, the Obligations. Such setoff shall be deemed to have been exercised immediately at the time the Bank or such Affiliate elect to do so.
10. MISCELLANEOUS.
a. Notices. Any demand or notice hereunder or under any applicable law pertaining hereto shall be in writing and duly given if delivered to Borrowers (at their address on the Banks records) or to the Bank (at the address on page one and separately to the Bank officer responsible for Borrowers relationship with the Bank). Such notice or demand shall be deemed sufficiently given for all purposes when delivered (1) 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 Bank.
b. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. Any financial calculation to be made, all financial statements and other financial information to be provided, and all books and records, system of accounting and reserves to be kept in connection with the provisions of this Agreement, shall be in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied during each interval and from interval to interval; provided, however, that in the event changes in generally accepted accounting principles shall be mandated by the Financial Accounting Standards Board or any similar accounting body of comparable standing, or should be recommended by GTJs certified public accountants, to the extent such changes would affect any financial calculations to be made in connection herewith, such changes shall be implemented in making such calculations only from and after such date as the Borrowers and the Bank shall have amended this Agreement to the extent necessary to reflect such changes in the financial and other covenants to which such calculations relate.
c. Indemnification. If after receipt of any payment of all, or any part of, the Obligations, the Bank is, for any reason, compelled to surrender such payment to any person or entity because such payment is unenforceable, void or voidable whether as a preference, an impermissible setoff, or a diversion of trust funds, or for any other reason, the Transaction Documents shall continue in full force and the Borrowers shall be jointly and severally liable, and shall jointly and severally indemnify and hold the Bank harmless for, the amount of such payment surrendered. The provisions of this Section shall be and remain effective notwithstanding any contrary action which may have been taken by the Bank in reliance upon such payment, and any such contrary action so taken shall be without prejudice to the Banks rights under the Transaction Documents and shall be deemed to have been conditioned upon such payment having become final and irrevocable. The provisions of this Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the Transaction Documents.
d. Further Assurances. From time to time, each Borrower shall take such action and execute and deliver to the Bank such additional documents, instruments, certificates, and agreements as the Bank may reasonably request to effectuate the purposes of the Transaction Documents.
e. Cumulative Nature and Non-Exclusive Exercise of Rights and Remedies. All rights and remedies of the Bank pursuant to this Agreement and the Transaction Documents shall be cumulative, and no such right or remedy shall be exclusive of any other such right or remedy. In the event of any irreconcilable inconsistencies, this Agreement shall control. No single or partial exercise by the Bank 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 Bank.
f. Governing Law; Jurisdiction. This Agreement has been delivered to and accepted by the Bank and will be deemed to be made in the State of New York. Except as otherwise provided under federal law, this Agreement will be interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of New York excluding its conflict of laws rules. EACH BORROWER HEREBY IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF ANY STATE OR FEDERAL COURT IN THE STATE OF NEW YORK IN NASSAU COUNTY OR SUFFOLK COUNTY AND CONSENTS THAT THE BANK MAY EFFECT ANY SERVICE OF PROCESS IN THE MANNER AND AT BORROWERS ADDRESS SET FORTH ABOVE FOR PROVIDING NOTICE OR DEMAND; PROVIDED THAT NOTHING CONTAINED IN THIS AGREEMENT WILL PREVENT THE BANK FROM BRINGING ANY ACTION, ENFORCING ANY AWARD OR JUDGMENT OR EXERCISING ANY RIGHTS AGAINST ANY BORROWER INDIVIDUALLY, AGAINST ANY SECURITY OR AGAINST ANY PROPERTY OF ANY BORROWER WITHIN ANY OTHER COUNTY, STATE OR OTHER FOREIGN OR DOMESTIC JURISDICTION. Each Borrower acknowledges and agrees that the venue provided above is the most convenient forum for both the Bank and the Borrowers. Each Borrower waives any objection to venue and any objection based on a more convenient forum in any action instituted under this Agreement.
g. Joint and Several; Successors and Assigns. If there is more than one Borrower, each of them shall be jointly and severally liable for all amounts, which become due, and the performance of all obligations under this Agreement, and the term the Borrower shall include each as well as all of them. This Agreement shall be binding upon the Borrowers and upon their heirs and legal representatives, their successors and assignees, and shall inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, the Bank, its successors and assignees and each direct or indirect assignee or other transferee of any of the Obligations; provided, however, that this Agreement may not be assigned by the Borrower without the prior written consent of the Bank.
h. Waivers; Changes in Writing. No failure or delay of the Bank in exercising any power or right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. Each Borrower expressly disclaims any reliance on any course of dealing or usage of trade or oral representation of the Bank (including representations to make loans to the Borrowers) and agrees that none of the foregoing shall operate as a waiver of any right or remedy of the Bank. No notice to or demand on any Borrower in any case shall entitle the Borrowers to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or consent to any departure by any Borrower therefrom shall in any event be effective unless made specifically in writing by the Bank and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. No modification to any provision of this Agreement shall be effective unless made in writing in an agreement signed by the Borrowers and the Bank.
i. Interpretation. Unless the context otherwise clearly requires, references to plural includes the singular and references to the singular include the plural; references to individual shall mean a natural person and shall include a natural person doing business under an assumed name ( e.g., a DBA); 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. Each provision of this Agreement 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. The Borrowers agree that in any legal proceeding, a photocopy of this Agreement kept in the Banks course of business may be admitted into evidence as an original.
j. Participations and Assignments. The Bank reserves the right to (a) or assign all or a portion of the Loans and its commitments thereunder, with the consent, not to be unreasonably withheld, of the Borrowers unless the assignee is an affiliate of the Bank or an Event of Default has occurred and is then continuing, and (b) grant participations in the Loans and commitments thereunder to one or more financial institutions, provided, however, that no assignment shall be made or participation granted to an entity which is a competitor of any Borrower without the consent of the Borrowers, which consent may be withheld in the sole discretion of Borrowers. The Borrowers authorize Bank to disclose to any prospective assignee or participant, once approved by the Borrowers (if Borrowers approval is required hereunder), any and all financial information in such Banks possession concerning the Borrowers which has been delivered to Bank pursuant to this Agreement; provided that each such prospective participant shall execute a confidentiality agreement in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Borrowers.
k. Waiver of Jury Trial. THE BORROWERS AND THE BANK HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY, AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY THE BORROWERS AND THE BANK MAY HAVE IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING, IN LAW OR IN EQUITY, IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY TRANSACTIONS RELATED HERETO. THE BORROWERS REPRESENT AND WARRANT THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE OR AGENT OF THE BANK HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT THE BANK WILL NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THIS JURY TRIAL WAIVER. THE BORROWE ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE BANK HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION.
L. This Agreement amends and restates, in its entirety, and is given in substitution for (but not in satisfaction of) the Credit Agreement dated as of August 26, 2011 between GTJ and the Bank (as amended, the Prior Agreement), provided that nothing contained herein or in any Transaction Document shall limit or affect the liens and security interests heretofore granted, pledged and/or assigned to the Bank by GTJ and Farm Springs. The execution and delivery of this Agreement shall not be construed to have constituted a repayment of any principal of, or interest on, the Note delivered in connection with the Prior Agreement, as same shall be amended and restated in connection with this Agreement.
M. This Agreement shall become effective upon receipt by the Bank of (a) the following, each duly executed and delivered by the Borrowers and in form and substance satisfactory to the Bank, (i) this Agreement, (ii) an amended and restated Note, (iii) an amendment to each of the Mortgage and the environmental indemnity agreement and reaffirmation of the assignment of leases and rents (each delivered in connection with the Prior Agreement), (b) an updated appraisal to be ordered by the Bank, at the expense of the Borrowers, indicating an appraised value of the Premises not less than $14,300,000, (c) an amendment fee of $18,000 and (d) such other documents and agreements that the Bank shall reasonably require.

WAIVER AND CONSENT, dated as of January 1, 2013 (this Waiver and Consent ), to the Credit Agreement dated as of August 26, 2011, (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified, from time to time, the Credit Agreement ) by and between GTJ REIT, INC., a Maryland corporation (the Borrower ) and MANUFACTURERS AND TRADERS TRUST COMPANY (the Bank ).
RECITALS
WHEREAS, the Borrower has notified the Bank that GTJ Realty LP (f/k/a GTJ Realty Trust, LLC), a Maryland limited liability company (the Holding Company ) and sole member of Farm Springs Road, LLC (the Guarantor ) will be acquiring a certain portfolio of twenty-five properties, as described on Exhibit A hereto, and, in consideration therefor, Jeffrey Wu, Paul Cooper, Jerome Cooper, Jeffrey Ravetz, Sarah Ravetz and Louis Sheinker (collectively, the New Owners ) will thereafter become limited partners of the Holding Company and will own an aggregate 33.29% of the limited partnership interests thereof (the Transaction ).
WHEREAS, the Bank has agreed, subject to the terms and conditions of this Waiver and Consent, to waive compliance with certain provisions of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents (as hereinafter defined) in order to permit, and to consent to, the consummation of the Transaction, all as herein set forth.
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and of the mutual covenants and agreements hereinafter set forth, the parties hereto agree as follows:
1. Waiver and Consent. The Bank hereby consents to the Transaction, and waives compliance with all sections of the Credit Agreement (including Section 6(a)), along with the Continuing Guaranty and the Open-End Mortgage, each dated August 26, 2011, each by the Guarantor in favor of the Bank, in each case solely as it relates to the Transaction, provided that the Borrower shall have delivered to the Bank a copy of the amended and restated limited partnership agreement of the Holding Company and evidence, reasonably satisfactory to the Bank, that the New Owners are limited partners of the Holding Company after giving effect to the Transaction.
2. Conditions of Effectiveness. This Waiver and Consent shall become effective as of the date hereof, upon receipt by the Bank of (a) this Waiver and Consent, duly executed by the Borrower and the Guarantor, (b) the documents required to be delivered pursuant to Section 1 above and (c) such other documents and agreements as the Bank may require.
3. Representations and Warranties. The Borrower hereby represents and warrants to the Bank as follows:
(a) After giving effect to this Waiver and Consent (i) each of the representations and warranties set forth in Section 2 of the Credit Agreement are true and correct in all material respects on and as of the date hereof as if made on and as of the date of this Waiver and Consent except to the extent such representations or warranties relate to an earlier date in which case they shall be true and correct in all material respects as of such earlier date, and (ii) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing as of the date hereof or shall result from after giving effect to this Waiver and Consent.
(b) The Borrower has the power to execute, deliver and perform this Waiver and Consent and each of the other agreements, instruments and documents to be executed by it in connection with this Waiver and Consent. No registration with or consent or approval of, or other action by, any Governmental Authority is required in connection with the execution, delivery and performance of this Waiver and Consent and the other agreements, instruments and documents executed in connection with this Waiver and Consent by the Borrower.
(c) The execution, delivery and performance by the Borrower of this Waiver and Consent and each of the other agreements, instruments, and documents to be executed by it in connection with this Waiver and Consent, and the execution and delivery by the Guarantor of the Consent to this Waiver and Consent, (i) have been duly authorized by all requisite corporate and limited liability company action, as applicable, (ii) will not violate (A) any provision of law applicable to the Borrower or the Guarantor, any rule or regulation of any Governmental Authority applicable to the Borrower or the Guarantor or (B) the certificate of incorporation, by-laws, articles of organization, operating agreement or other organizational documents, as applicable, of the Borrower or of the Guarantor or (C) any order of any court or other Governmental Authority binding on the Borrower or the Guarantor or any indenture, agreement or other instrument to which the Borrower or the Guarantor is a party, or by which the Borrower or the Guarantor or any of their respective properties are bound, and (iii) will not be in conflict with, result in a breach of or constitute (with due notice and/or lapse of time) a default under, any such indenture, agreement or other instrument, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien, of any nature whatsoever upon any of the property or assets of the Borrower or the Guarantor other than as contemplated by the Credit Agreement.
(d) This Waiver and Consent and each of the other agreements, instruments and documents executed in connection with this Waiver and Consent to which the Borrower or the Guarantor are a party have been duly executed and delivered by the Borrower and the Guarantor, as the case may be, and constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Borrower and the Guarantor enforceable, as the case may be, in accordance with its terms, except to the extent that enforcement may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, or other similar laws, now or hereafter in effect, relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors rights generally and by equitable principles of general application, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law.
4. Miscellaneous.
(a) Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the same meanings as defined in the Credit Agreement.
(b) Except as expressly waived hereby, the Credit Agreement shall remain in full force and effect in accordance with the original terms thereof.
(c) The waivers contained are limited specifically to the matter set forth above and do not constitute directly or by implication an amendment or a waiver of any other provision of Credit Agreement or a waiver of any Default or Event of Default which may occur or may have occurred under the Credit Agreement.
(d) This Waiver and Consent may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute but one Waiver and Consent.
(e) THIS WAIVER AND CONSENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICT OF LAW PRINCIPLES.
5. Reaffirmation.
The Borrower hereby: (a) acknowledges and confirms that, except as amended by this Waiver and Consent, (i) all terms and provisions contained in the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents are, and shall remain, in full force and effect in accordance with their respective terms and (ii) the liens heretofore granted, pledged and/or assigned to the Bank as security for the Borrowers obligations under the Credit Agreement, the Note and the other Loan Documents shall not be impaired, limited or affected in any manner whatsoever by reason of this Waiver and Consent; (b) reaffirms and ratifies all the representations and covenants contained in the Credit Agreement and each other Loan Document; and (c) represents, warrants and confirms the non-existence of any offsets, defenses, or counterclaims to its obligations under the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

For the avoidance of doubt, the matters set forth in this paragraph (a) shall be fully recourse to Maker (but not any member, manager, officer, director or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing, with the exclusion of the Guarantors) and Guarantor.

lieu of foreclosure transaction, all in form reasonably satisfactory to Holder, and such deed-in-lieu of foreclosure is accepted by Holder in its sole discretion (y) the date that Maker tenders to Holder a stipulation to entry of judgment of foreclosure in respect of the Property, and (z) the date Holder, any Affiliate of Holder, or any other party takes title to the Property in connection with a foreclosure of the applicable Mortgage that encumbers the Property.

CONSOLIDATED, AMENDED AND RESTATED
PROMISSORY NOTE
U.S. $4,639,600 |
March 8, 2011 |
WHEREAS, First SunAmerica Life Insurance Company, a New York corporation, having an address at 1 SunAmerica Center, Century City, Los Angeles, California 90067-6022 (hereinafter referred to, together with each subsequent holder hereof, as Holder ) or at such other address as may be designated from time to time hereafter by any Holder, is the holder of the Prior Notes (as defined in Section 28 hereof), evidencing obligations made, or assumed, by Wu/LH 8 Slater L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company ( Maker ), having an address at c/o Lighthouse Real Estate Management LLC, 60 Hempstead Avenue, Suite 718, West Hempstead, New York 11552;
WHEREAS, there is presently owing under the Prior Notes (as hereinafter defined) the combined principal balance of $4,639,600; and
WHEREAS, Holder and Maker have agreed that the indebtedness evidenced by the Prior Notes shall be combined and consolidated, that such Prior Notes shall be exchanged for this Consolidated, Amended and Restated Promissory Note (this Note ) and upon such exchange the Prior Notes shall be cancelled, but that in no event shall such exchange be deemed to be a cancellation or extinguishment of the indebtedness evidenced by the Prior Notes or be deemed to be the creation or substitution of new indebtedness; it having been expressly agreed that this Note shall merely be evidence of the indebtedness heretofore evidenced by the Prior Notes, and that the terms of the Prior Notes shall be entirely supplanted and superseded by this Note.
NOW THEREFORE, Maker hereby confirms its agreement with the foregoing WHEREAS clauses, and Maker hereby jointly and severally promises to pay to the order of Holder the principal sum of FOUR MILLION SIX HUNDRED THIRTY-NINE THOUSAND SIX HUNDRED AND NO/100THS DOLLARS ($4,639,600), together with interest on the principal balance outstanding from time to time, as hereinafter provided, in lawful money of the United States of America.
By its execution and delivery of this Note, Maker covenants and agrees as follows:
1. Interest Rate and Payments .
(a) The balance of principal outstanding from time to time under this Note shall bear interest at the rate of five and seventy-six hundredths percent (5.76%) per annum (the Original Interest Rate ), computed on the basis of a three hundred sixty (360) day year composed of twelve (12) months of thirty (30) days each; however, interest for partial months shall be calculated by multiplying the principal balance of this Note by the applicable interest rate (i.e., the Original Interest Rate or the New Rate (hereinafter defined)), dividing the product by three hundred sixty (360), and multiplying that result by the actual number of days elapsed.
(b) Interest only on this Note shall be payable on the date the loan evidenced by this Note (the Loan ) is funded by Holder, in advance, for the period from and including the date hereof through and including March 31, 2011.
(c) Commencing on May 1, 2011 and on the first day of each month thereafter through and including April 1, 2012, (each such date a Interest Only Payment Date ) payments of interest only shall be payable, in arrears, in the amount of $22,270.08.
(d) Commencing on May 1, 2012 and on the first day of each month thereafter through and including the first day of the month immediately preceding the Maturity Date (each such date a Principal and Interest Payment Date and together with any Interest Only Payment Date, referred to herein, collectively, as a Payment Date ), combined payments of principal and interest shall be payable, in arrears, in the amount of $29,216.06 each (such amount representing an amount that would be sufficient to fully amortize the original principal amount of this Note over a twenty-five (25) year period (the Amortization Period ), if such amortization were based on a three hundred sixty (360) day year composed of twelve (12) months of thirty (30) days each).
(e) The entire outstanding principal balance, and all other amounts due under this Note and the other Loan Documents (as hereinafter defined), together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, shall be due and payable in full on April 1, 2018 (the Maturity Date ).
2. Holders Extension Option; Net Operating Income . The provisions of this Section 2 concern the election of Holder to extend the term of the Loan for the Extension Term (as defined below) and certain obligations of Maker during the Extension Term.
(a) If Maker shall fail to pay the outstanding principal balance of this Note and all accrued interest and other charges due hereon and all other amounts due under the Loan Documents, at the Maturity Date, Holder shall have the right, at Holders sole option and discretion, to extend the term of the Loan for an additional period of five (5) years (the Extension Term ) and require Maker to make additional monthly payments of net operating income as provided herein. If Holder elects to extend the term of the Loan, Maker shall pay all fees of Holder incurred in connection with such extension, including, but not limited to, attorneys fees and title insurance premiums. Maker shall execute all documents reasonably requested by Holder to evidence and secure the Loan, as extended, and shall obtain and provide to Holder any title insurance policy or endorsement requested by Holder. If Holder elects to extend the term of the loan for the Extension Term, no Event of Default shall be deemed to exist solely by reason of the failure by Maker to pay such outstanding principal balance of this Note and all accrued interest and other charges due hereunder, and all other amounts due under the Loan Documents, on the Maturity Date.
(b) Should Holder elect to extend the term of the Loan as provided above, Holder shall: (i) reset the interest rate borne by the then-existing principal balance of the Loan to a rate per annum (the New Rate ) equal to the greater of (A) the Original Interest Rate, or (B) Holders (or comparable lenders, if Holder is no longer making such loans) then-prevailing interest rate for five (5) year loans secured by properties similar to the Property (hereinafter defined), as determined by Holder in its sole discretion; (ii) re-amortize the
then-existing principal balance of the Loan over the Amortization Period; (iii) have the right to require Maker to enter into modifications of the non-economic terms of the Loan Documents as Holder may request (the Non-Economic Modifications ); and (iv) notwithstanding any provision set forth in the Loan Documents to the contrary, have the right to require Maker to make monthly payments into escrow for insurance premiums and real property taxes, assessments and similar governmental charges. Hence, monthly principal and interest payments during the Extension Term shall be based upon the New Rate, in an amount that would be sufficient to fully amortize the outstanding principal balance of the Loan over the Amortization Period.
(c) If Holder elects to extend the term of the Loan, Holder shall advise Maker of the New Rate on or prior to the Maturity Date, but in no event shall the term be extended unless Holder is entitled to do so under Section 2(a) above.
(d) In addition to the required monthly payments of principal and interest set forth above, commencing on the first day of the second month following the Maturity Date and continuing on the first day of each month thereafter during the Extension Term (each an Additional Payment Date ), Maker shall make monthly payments to Holder in an amount equal to all Net Operating Income (hereinafter defined) attributable to the Property for the calendar month ending on the last day of the month that is two months preceding each such Additional Payment Date. For example, assuming the Maturity Date is January 1, then Net Operating Income for the period from January 1 through January 31 shall be payable to Holder on March 1; Net Operating Income for the period from February 1 through February 28 shall be payable to Holder on April 1, and so on.
(e) Holder shall deposit all such Net Operating Income received from Maker into an account or accounts maintained at a financial institution chosen by Holder or its Servicer in its sole discretion (the Deposit Account ) and all such funds shall be invested in a manner acceptable to Holder in its sole discretion. All interest, dividends and earnings credited to the Deposit Account shall be held and applied in accordance with the terms hereof.
(f) On the third Additional Payment Date and on each third Additional Payment Date thereafter, Holder shall apply all Excess Funds (hereinafter defined), if any, to prepayment of amounts due under this Note, without premium or penalty.
(g) As security for the repayment of the Loan and the performance of all other obligations of Maker under the Loan Documents, Maker hereby assigns, pledges, conveys, delivers, transfers and grants to Holder a first priority security interest in and to: (i) all Makers right, title and interest in and to the Deposit Account; (ii) all rights to payment from the Deposit Account and the money deposited therein or credited thereto (whether then due or in the future due and whether then or in the future on deposit); (iii) all interest thereon; (iv) any certificates, instruments and securities, if any, representing the Deposit Account; (v) all claims, demands, general intangibles, choses in action and other rights or interests of Maker in respect of the Deposit Account; (vi) any monies then or at any time thereafter deposited therein; and (vii) any increases, renewals, extensions, substitutions and replacements thereof and all proceeds of the foregoing.
(h) From time to time, but not more frequently than monthly, Maker may request a disbursement (a Disbursement ) from the Deposit Account for capital
expenses, tenant improvement expenses, leasing commissions and special contingency expenses. Holder may consent to or deny any such Disbursement in its sole discretion.
(i) During the existence of an Event of Default (hereinafter defined), (i) Maker shall not be entitled to any Disbursement from the Deposit Account and (ii) Holder shall be entitled to take immediate possession and control of the Deposit Account (and all funds contained therein) and to pursue all of its rights and remedies available to Holder under the Loan Documents, at law and in equity.
(j) All of the terms and conditions of the Loan shall apply during the Extension Term, except as expressly set forth above, and except that no further extensions of the Loan shall be permitted.
(k) For the purposes of the foregoing:
(i) Excess Funds shall mean, on any Additional Payment Date, the amount of funds then existing in the Deposit Account (including any Net Operating Income due on the applicable Additional Payment Date), less an amount equal to the sum of three regularly scheduled payments of principal and interest due on this Note;
(ii) Net Operating Income shall mean, for any particular period of time, Gross Revenue for the relevant period, less Operating Expenses for the relevant period; provided, however, that if such amount is equal to or less than zero (0), Net Operating Income shall equal zero (0);
(iii) Gross Revenue shall mean all payments and other revenues (exclusive, however, of any payments attributable to sales taxes) received by or on behalf of Maker from all sources related to the ownership or operation of the Property, including, but not limited to, rents, room charges, parking fees, interest, security deposits (unless required to be held in a segregated account), business interruption insurance proceeds, operating expense pass-through revenues, direct expense reimbursements and common area maintenance charges, for the relevant period for which the calculation of Gross Revenue is being made; and
(iv) Operating Expenses shall mean the sum of all ordinary and necessary operating expenses actually paid by Maker in connection with the operation of the Property during the relevant period for which the calculation of Operating Expenses is being made, including, but not limited to, (a) payments made by Maker for taxes and insurance required under the Loan Documents and (b) monthly debt service payments as required under this Note.
3. Budgets During Extension Term .
(a) Within fifteen (15) Business Days (as defined below) following the Maturity Date and on or before December 1 of each subsequent calendar year, Maker shall deliver to Holder a proposed revenue and expense budget for the Property for the remainder of the calendar year in which the Maturity Date occurs or the immediately succeeding
calendar year (as applicable). Such budget shall set forth Makers projection of Gross Revenue and Operating Expenses for the applicable calendar year, which shall be subject to Holders reasonable approval. Once a proposed budget has been reviewed and approved by Holder, and Maker has made all revisions requested by Holder, if any, the revised budget shall be delivered to Holder and shall thereafter become the budget for the Property hereunder (any such budget referred to as the Budget ) for the applicable calendar year. If Maker and Holder are unable to agree upon a Budget for any calendar year, the budgeted Operating Expenses (excluding extraordinary items) provided in the Budget for the Property for the preceding calendar year shall be considered the Budget for the Property for the subject calendar year until Maker and Holder agree upon a new Budget for such calendar year.
(b) During the Extension Term, Maker shall operate the Property in accordance with the applicable Budget for the applicable calendar year, and the total of expenditures relating to the Property exceeding one hundred and five percent (105%) of the aggregate of such expenses set forth in the applicable Budget for the applicable time period shall not be treated as Operating Expenses for the purposes of calculating Net Operating Income, without the prior written consent of Holder except for emergency expenditures which, in Makers good faith judgment, are reasonably necessary to protect, or avoid immediate danger to, life or property.
4. Reports During Extension Term .
(a) During the Extension Term, Maker shall deliver to Holder all financial statements reasonably required by Holder to calculate Net Operating Income, including, without limitation, a monthly statement to be delivered to Holder concurrently with Makers payment of Net Operating Income that sets forth the amount of Net Operating Income accompanying such statement and Makers calculation of Net Operating Income for the relevant calendar month. Such statements shall be certified by an executive officer of Maker or Makers manager, managing member or general partner (as applicable) as having been prepared in accordance with the terms hereof and to be true, accurate and complete in all material respects.
(b) In addition, on or before February 1 of each calendar year during the Extension Term, Maker shall submit to Holder an annual income and expense statement for the Property which shall include the calculation of Gross Revenue, Operating Expenses and Net Operating Income for the preceding calendar year and shall be accompanied by Makers reconciliation of any difference between the actual aggregate amount of the Net Operating Income for such calendar year and the aggregate amount of Net Operating Income for such calendar year actually remitted to Holder. All such statements shall be certified by an executive officer of Maker or Makers manager, managing member or general partner (as applicable) as having been prepared in accordance with the terms hereof and to be true, accurate and complete in all material respects. If any such annual financial statement discloses any inconsistency between the calculation of Net Operating Income and the amount of Net Operating Income actually remitted to Holder, Maker shall immediately remit to Holder the amount of any underpayment of Net Operating Income for such calendar year or, in the event of an overpayment by Maker, such amount may be withheld from any subsequent payment of Net Operating Income required hereunder.
(c) Holder may notify Maker within ninety (90) days after receipt of any statement or report required hereunder that Holder disputes any computation or item contained in any portion of such statement or report. If Holder so notifies Maker, Holder and Maker shall meet in good faith within twenty (20) days after Holders notice to Maker to resolve such disputed items. If, despite such good faith efforts, the parties are unable to resolve the dispute at such meeting or within ten (10) days thereafter, the items shall be resolved by an independent certified public accountant designated by Holder within fifteen (15) days after such ten (10) day period. The determination of such accountant shall be final. All fees of such accountant shall be paid by Maker. Maker shall remit to Holder any additional amount of Net Operating Income found to be due for such periods within ten (10) days after the resolution of such dispute by the parties or the accountants determination, as applicable. The amount of any overpayment found to have been made for such periods may be withheld from any required future remittance of Net Operating Income.
(d) Maker shall at all times keep and maintain full and accurate books of account and records adequate to reflect correctly all items required in order to calculate Net Operating Income.
5. Prepayment
(a) Maker shall have no right to prepay all or any part of this Note prior to the date that is the last day of the forty-second (42) month following the date of this Note (the Lockout Expiration Date ).
(b) At any time following the Lockout Expiration Date, Maker shall have the right to prepay the full principal amount of this Note, and all other amounts due under this Note and the other Loan Documents, and all accrued but unpaid interest thereon as of the date of prepayment, provided that (i) Maker gives not less than thirty (30) days prior written notice to Holder of Makers election to prepay this Note, (ii) Maker pays a prepayment premium to Holder equal to the greater of (A) one percent (1%) of the outstanding principal amount of this Note or (B) the Present Value of this Note (hereinafter defined), less the amount of principal being prepaid, calculated as of the prepayment date and (iii) Maker prepays each of the other Additional Notes (as such term is defined in the Mortgage) and all other amounts due under the Additional Notes and the other Additional Loan Documents (as such term is defined in the Mortgage), and all accrued but unpaid interest thereon as of the date of prepayment.
(c) Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 5 , no prepayment premium shall be due (i) in connection with any involuntary prepayment due to the Holders application of any insurance proceeds or condemnation awards to the principal balance of the Loan or (ii) if Maker provides additional funds to prepay the Loan in connection with the application of any insurance proceeds or condemnation awards to the principal balance of the Loan following any casualty or condemnation; provided, in any such case, that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such application of insurance proceeds or condemnation awards.
(d) Holder shall notify Maker in writing of the amount and basis of determination of the prepayment premium. Holder shall not be obligated to accept any prepayment of the principal balance of this Note unless such prepayment is accompanied by (i) the
applicable prepayment premium, (ii) the outstanding principal balance of the Loan, (iii) all accrued interest and other sums due under this Note and all other amounts due under the Loan Documents and (iv) the outstanding principal balance of the Additional Loans (as such term is defined in the Mortgage) all accrued interest and other sums due under the Additional Notes and all other amounts due under the Additional Loan Documents. Maker may not prepay the Loan on a Friday, nor on any public holiday or the equivalent for banks generally under the laws of the State of New York or on any day preceding a public holiday, or the equivalent for banks generally under the laws of the State of New York.
(e) Except for making payments of Net Operating Income as required above, and except for the application of insurance proceeds or condemnation awards to the principal balance of this Note, as provided in the Mortgage (hereinafter defined), in no event shall Maker be permitted to make any partial prepayments of this Note.
(f) If Holder accelerates this Note for any reason, then in addition to Makers obligation to pay the then outstanding principal balance of this Note and all accrued but unpaid interest thereon, Maker shall pay an additional amount equal to the prepayment premium that would be due to Holder if Maker were voluntarily prepaying this Note at the time that such acceleration occurred, or if under the terms hereof no voluntary prepayment would be permissible on the date of such acceleration, Maker shall pay a prepayment premium equal to 150% of the highest prepayment premium set forth in this Note, calculated as of the date of such acceleration as if prepayment were permitted on such date.
(g) For the purposes of the foregoing:
(i) The Present Value of this Note with respect to any prepayment of this Note, as of any date, shall be determined by discounting all scheduled payments of principal and interest remaining to maturity of this Note, attributed to the amount being prepaid, at the Discount Rate. If prepayment occurs on a date other than a Payment Date, the actual number of days remaining from the prepayment date to the next Payment Date will be used to calculate such discount within such period;
(ii) The Discount Rate is the rate which, when compounded monthly, is equivalent to the Treasury Rate, when compounded semi-annually;
(iii) The Treasury Rate is the semi-annual yield on the Treasury Constant Maturity Series with maturity equal to the remaining weighted average life of this Note, for the week prior to the prepayment date, as reported in Federal Reserve Statistical Release H. 15 - Selected Interest Rates, conclusively determined by Holder on the prepayment date. The rate will be determined by linear interpolation between the yields reported in Release H.15, if necessary. In the event Release H.15 is no longer published, Holder shall select a comparable publication to determine the Treasury Rate.
(h) Holder shall not be obligated actually to reinvest the amount prepaid in any treasury obligations as a condition precedent to receiving any prepayment premium.
(i) Notwithstanding the foregoing, (A) at any time during the Extension Term, Maker shall have the right to prepay in full, but not in part, the principal amount of this Note and all accrued but unpaid interest thereon as of the date of prepayment, without prepayment premium thereon and (B) no prepayment premium shall be due in connection with the prepayment of the full principal amount of this Note, and all other amounts due under this Note and the other Loan Documents, and all accrued but unpaid interest thereon as of the date of prepayment, during the ninety (90) day period prior to the Maturity Date.
6. Payments . Whenever any payment to be made under this Note shall be stated to be due on a Saturday, Sunday or public holiday or the equivalent for banks generally under the laws of the State of New York (any other day being a Business Day ), such payment may be made on the next succeeding Business Day.
7. Default Rate .
(a) The entire balance of principal, interest, and any other sums due under this Note and the other Loan Documents upon the maturity hereof, by acceleration or otherwise, shall bear interest from the date due until paid at the greater of (i) eighteen percent (18%) per annum and (ii) a per annum rate equal to four percent (4%) over the prime rate published in The Wall Street Journal on the first business day of each month (the Default Rate ); provided, however, that such rate shall not exceed the maximum permitted by applicable state or federal law. In the event The Wall Street Journal is no longer published or no longer publishes such prime rate, Holder shall select a comparable reference.
(b) If any payment under this Note or any of the Additional Notes is not made when due, interest shall accrue at the Default Rate from the date such payment was due until payment is actually made.
8. Late Charges . In addition to interest as set forth herein, Maker shall pay to Holder a late charge equal to four percent (4%) of any amounts due under this Note in the event any such amount is not paid when due. Notwithstanding the foregoing provision, Holder will allow for one (1) five (5) day grace period upon monetary default without the obligation of paying a late charge in any twelve (12) month period during the term of the Loan.
9. Application of Payments . All payments hereunder shall be applied in the following order: (i) first, to the payment of late charges, if any; (ii) second, to the payment of prepayment premiums, if any; (iii) third, to the repayment of any sums advanced by Holder for the payment of any insurance premiums, taxes, assessments or other charges against the Property securing this Note and any other costs and expenses incurred by Holder in accordance with the Loan Documents (together with interest thereon at the Default Rate from the date of advance until repaid), if any; (iv) fourth, to the payment of accrued and unpaid interest and other amounts due and payable under the Loan Documents (other than principal), if any; and (v) fifth, to the reduction of principal. Notwithstanding the foregoing, for so long as any Event of Default is continuing, Holder shall have the continuing right to apply any payment received by Holder from or on behalf of Maker as Holder may elect against the due and owing obligations of Maker under the Note and the other Loan Documents in such order of priority or in such allocations as Holder may deem advisable in its sole and absolute discretion.
10. Immediately Available Funds . All payments under this Note shall be payable in immediately available funds without setoff, counterclaim or deduction of any kind, and shall be made by electronic funds transfer from a bank account established and maintained by Maker for such purpose.
11. Security . This Note is secured by, among other things, (i) that certain Mortgage, Consolidation, Extension, Spreader and Security Agreement, Fixture Filing, Financing Statement and Assignment of Leases and Rents, of even date herewith, granted by Maker for the benefit of Holder (the Mortgage ) encumbering certain real property and improvements located at 8 Slater Street, Port Chester, New York 10573, as more particularly described in the Mortgage (the Property ), (ii) a Guaranty Agreement from Paul Cooper, Jeffrey Ravetz and Louis Sheinker (collectively, Guarantors ), in favor of Holder (the Guaranty ) and (iii) the Affiliate Guaranty (as such term is defined in the Mortgage)..
12. Certain Definitions . Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings set forth in the Mortgage.
13. Event of Default . Each of the following events will constitute an event of default (an Event of Default ) under this Note and under the Mortgage and each other document evidencing or securing or executed in connection with the Loan (collectively, the Loan Documents ), and any Event of Default under any Loan Document shall constitute an Event of Default hereunder and under each of the other Loan Documents:
(a) any failure to pay when due any interest, principal or other amount in a sum certain under this Note or under any of the other Loan Documents for which sum there is a scheduled date for payment or for which there is a date certain for payment.
(b) any failure to pay within ten (10) days following demand by Holder for any amount other than any amount described in Section 13(a) above; or
(c) any failure of Maker to properly perform any obligation contained herein or in any of the other Loan Documents (other than the obligation to make payments under this Note or the other Loan Documents) and the continuance of such failure for a period of thirty (30) days following written notice thereof from Holder to Maker; provided, however, that if such failure is not curable within such thirty (30) day period, then, so long as Maker commences to cure such failure within such thirty (30) day period and is continually and diligently attempting to cure to completion, such failure shall not be an Event of Default unless such failure remains uncured for one hundred twenty (120) days after such written notice to Maker; or
(d) if, at any time during the Extension Term, Gross Revenue for any calendar month shall be less than ninety-three percent (93%) of the amount of projected Gross Revenue for such month set forth in the applicable Budget; or
(e) the occurrence of any event that is deemed to be an Event of Default under any provision of this Note, the Mortgage, the Affiliate Guaranty, any other Loan Document or any Additional Loan Document.
14. Acceleration . If at any time an Event of Default exists, the entire balance of principal, accrued interest and other sums owing hereunder shall, at the option of Holder, become at once due and payable without notice or demand. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default described in Section 13(d) hereof, Holder shall have the option, in its sole and absolute discretion, to either (a) exercise any remedies available to Holder under the Loan Documents, at law or in equity, or (b) require Maker to submit a new proposed budget for Holders approval. If Holder agrees to accept such new proposed budget, then such budget shall become the Budget for all purposes hereunder. If an Event of Default exists, Holder may exercise any right, power or remedy permitted by law or set forth herein or in the Mortgage or any other Loan Document.
15. Conditions Precedent . Maker hereby certifies and declares that all acts, conditions and things required to be done or performed or have happened precedent to the creation and issuance of this Note, and in order to constitute this Note the legal, valid and binding obligation of Maker, enforceable in accordance with the terms hereof, have been done or performed or have happened in due and strict compliance with all applicable laws.
16. Certain Waivers and Consents . Maker and all parties now or hereafter liable for the payment hereof, primarily or secondarily, directly or indirectly, and whether as endorser, guarantor, surety, or otherwise, hereby severally (a) waive presentment, demand, protest, notice of protest and/or dishonor, and all other demands or notices of any sort whatever with respect to this Note, (b) consent to impairment or release of collateral, extensions of time for payment, and acceptance of partial payments before, at, or after maturity, (c) waive any right to require Holder to proceed against any security for this Note before proceeding hereunder, (d) waive diligence in the collection of this Note or in filing suit on this Note and (e) agree to pay all out-of-pocket costs and expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys fees, which may be actually incurred in the collection of this Note or any part thereof or in preserving, securing possession of and realizing upon any security for this Note.
17. Usury Savings Clause . The provisions of this Note and of all agreements between Maker and Holder are, whether now existing or hereinafter made, hereby expressly limited so that in no contingency or event whatsoever, whether by reason of acceleration of the maturity hereof, prepayment, demand for payment or otherwise, shall the amount paid, or agreed to be paid, to Holder for the use, forbearance or detention of the principal hereof or interest hereon, which remains unpaid from time to time, exceed the maximum amount permissible under applicable law. In particular, it is the intention of the parties hereto to conform strictly to New York and Federal law, whichever is applicable. If as a result of any circumstance whatsoever, the performance or fulfillment of any provision hereof or of any other agreement between Maker and Holder pertaining to the subject matter hereof shall, at the time performance or fulfillment of such provision is due, involve or purport to require any payment in excess of the limits then prescribed by applicable law, then the obligation to be performed or fulfilled shall hereby be reduced to such limit as to be valid under such applicable law, and if as a result of any circumstance whatsoever, Holder should receive as interest under this Note an amount which would exceed the then highest lawful rate, the amount by which such interest payment would exceed such highest lawful rate shall be applied to the reduction of the principal balance owing hereunder without prepayment or penalty (or, at Holders option, be paid to Maker) and in no event shall be counted as interest. To the fullest extent permitted by then applicable law, the determination of the legal maximum
amount of interest shall at any and all times be made by amortizing, prorating, allocating and spreading in equal parts over the period of the full stated term of this Note, all interest at any time contracted for, charged or received from Maker in connection with this Note and all other agreements between Maker and Holder pertaining to the subject matter hereof, so that the actual rate of interest on account of the indebtedness represented by this Note is uniform throughout the term hereof and complies with all applicable law.
18. Non-Recourse; Exceptions to Non-Recourse .
(a) Nothing contained in the Loan Documents shall be deemed to impair, limit or prejudice Holders rights in foreclosure proceedings or in any ancillary proceedings brought to facilitate Holders foreclosure on the Property or any portion thereof or to exercise any specific rights or remedies afforded Holder under any other provisions of the Loan Documents or by law or in equity, subject to the non-recourse provisions set forth below, to recover under any guarantee given in connection with the Loan or to pursue any personal liability of Maker or any Guarantor under the Guaranty Agreement, the Environmental Indemnity Agreement or the ERISA indemnity provisions of the Mortgage. Except as expressly hereinafter set forth, the recourse of Holder with respect to the obligations evidenced by this Note, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents (except for the Guaranty and the Environmental Indemnity Agreement) shall be solely to the Property, Chattels and Intangible Personalty (as such terms are defined in the Mortgage). Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary contained in this Note, the Mortgage or in any other Loan Document, nothing shall be deemed in any way to impair, limit or prejudice the rights of Holder to collect or recover from Maker (but not any member, manager, officer, director or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing, with the exclusion of the Guarantors) and Guarantors: (i) damages or costs (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys fees) incurred by Holder as a result of any intentional waste by Maker; (ii) any condemnation award or insurance proceeds attributable to the Property which were not paid to Holder or used to restore the Property in accordance with the terms of the Mortgage; (iii) any Rents, profits, security deposits, advances, rebates, prepaid rents or other similar sums attributable to the Property collected by or for Maker (x) following an Event of Default under any Loan Document and not properly applied to the reasonable fixed and operating expenses of the Property, including, without limitation, payments due on this Note and other sums due under the Loan Documents or (y) to the extent not deposited into the Lockbox Account; (iv) any security deposits collected by or for Maker and not applied in accordance with the applicable Leases (as such term is defined in the Mortgage); (v) the amount of any accrued taxes, assessments, and/or utility charges affecting the Property (whether or not the same have been billed to Maker) that are either unpaid by Maker or advanced by Holder under the Mortgage, except, in respect of the Property, to the extent of any of the foregoing accruing after the Termination Date (as hereinafter defined) with respect to the Property; (vi) any sums expended by Holder in fulfilling the obligations of Maker, as lessor, under any Lease affecting the Property; (vii) the amount of any loss suffered by Holder (that would otherwise be covered by insurance and available to Holder in accordance with the Loan Documents) as a result of Makers failure to maintain any insurance required under the terms of any Loan Document; and (viii) losses, damages and costs (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys fees) incurred by Holder as a result of any fraud of material misrepresentation by Maker in connection with the Property or any of the Loan Documents. For the avoidance of doubt, the matters set forth in this paragraph (a) shall be fully recourse to Maker (but not any member, manager, officer, director or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing, with the
exclusion of the Guarantors) and Guarantor. For the purposes of this Section 18(a) , the Termination Date is, in respect of the Property, the earliest of (x) the date that Maker tenders to Holder or Holders designee a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure in respect of the Property, subject to no title exceptions other than real estate taxes and assessments, the Permitted Exceptions (as defined in the applicable Mortgage) and such additional exceptions approved by Holder pursuant to the Loan Documents or which are otherwise acceptable to Holder in its reasonable discretion, together with such ancillary conveyances, releases and other documentation that are customarily delivered in connection with a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure transaction, all in form reasonably satisfactory to Holder, and such deed-in-lieu of foreclosure is accepted by Holder in its sole discretion (y) the date that Maker tenders to Holder a stipulation to entry of judgment of foreclosure in respect of the Property, and (z) the date Holder, any Affiliate of Holder, or any other party takes title to the Property in connection with a foreclosure of the applicable Mortgage that encumbers the Property. If Maker elects to deliver a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure in respect of the Property, Holder shall retain the right to determine whether to accept such deed-in-lieu of foreclosure or to proceed with foreclosure proceedings and, upon Holder making such election, Maker shall execute and deliver to Holder an appropriate deed-in-lieu of foreclosure in respect of the Property, as Holder shall have elected; provided, however, that if Holder chooses to proceed with foreclosure proceedings in respect of the Property, the Termination Date shall nonetheless be the earliest of the date specified in clause (x), (y) and (z) above, provided further that if Maker thereafter fails to cooperate with Holder in respect of Holders exercise of any and all remedies available at law or in equity to Holder (including, without limitation, foreclosure), then the Termination Date shall be the earlier of the date specified in clause (y) or (z) above.
(b) The agreement contained in this Section 18 to limit the personal liability of Maker to its interest in the Property, Chattels and Intangible Personalty shall become null and void and be of no further force and effect, and Maker (but not any member, manager, officer, director or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing, with the exclusion of the Guarantors) and Guarantors shall be personally liable for the repayment of the Secured Obligations (as such term is defined in the Mortgage) in the event (i) that the Property, or any part thereof or any interest therein, or any interest in Maker, or any of them, shall be further encumbered by a voluntary lien securing any obligation upon which Maker, or any of them, any direct or indirect general partner, manager or managing member such Maker, any Guarantor, any of the Mortgagor Control Persons (as defined in the Mortgage) or any principal or affiliate of Maker, or any of them, shall be personally liable for repayment, either as obligor or guarantor, (ii) of any breach or violation of Section 5.4, 5.5 or 5.7 of the Mortgage, (iii) that Maker forfeits the Property or the Chattels or any portion of the Property or Chattels due to criminal activity, (iv) any attempt by Maker, any Guarantor or any Mortgagor Owner Person (as defined in the Mortgage) to materially delay any foreclosure against the Property, Chattels and/or Intangible Personalty, or any portion of the Property, the Chattels and/or the Intangible Personalty or any other exercise by Holder of its remedies under the Loan Documents, which attempts shall (x) include, without limitation, (A) any claim made by Maker that any Loan Document is invalid or unenforceable to an extent that would preclude any such foreclosure or other exercise of remedies, (B) Maker filing a petition in bankruptcy, Maker acquiescing in an involuntary bankruptcy proceeding, Maker failing to oppose in good faith the entry of an order for relief pursuant to any involuntary bankruptcy filed against it, or Maker filing a petition or answer seeking any reorganization, arrangement, composition, readjustment, liquidation, dissolution or similar relief under the bankruptcy laws of the United States or under any other similar federal, state or other statute relating to relief from
indebtedness (whether filed by or against Maker), or (C) the appointment of a receiver, trustee or liquidator by Maker, any Guarantor or any Mortgagor Owner Person with respect to Maker or the Property or any part thereof and (y) shall not include a defense to a foreclosure that is (A) not frivolous and is advanced in good faith and (B) based upon a default by Holder under terms of the Loan Documents, or (v) any execution, amendment, modification or early termination of any Lease of any Required Tenant made in violation of the Loan Documents. For the avoidance of doubt, no such termination of any Lease shall excuse Maker from the performance of its obligations under the Loan Documents. For purposes of the foregoing, affiliate shall have the meaning ascribed to the term Affiliate in the Mortgage.
19. Severability . If any provision hereof or of any other document securing or otherwise related to the indebtedness evidenced hereby is, for any reason and to any extent, deemed invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction or with respect to any person, entity or circumstances, then neither the remainder of the document in which such provision is contained, nor the application of such provision in respect of other persons, entities, or circumstances, nor any other document referred to herein, shall be affected by such invalidity or lack of enforceability, but, instead, shall be enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by law.
20. Transfer of Note . Each provision of this Note shall be and remain in full force and effect notwithstanding any negotiation or transfer hereof and any interest herein to any other Holder or participant.
21. Governing Law . Regardless of the place of its execution, this Note shall be construed and enforced in accordance with the substantive laws of the State of New York.
22. Time of Essence . Time is of the essence of this Note.
23. Remedies Cumulative . The remedies provided to Holder in this Note, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents are cumulative and concurrent and may be exercised singly, successively or jointly against Maker, the Property, and other security, or against Guarantors or any obligor under, or guarantor of, this Note or the other Loan Documents, at the sole and absolute discretion of Holder.
24. No Waiver . Holder shall not by any act or omission be deemed to have waived any of its rights or remedies hereunder unless such waiver is in writing and signed by Holder and then only to the extent specifically set forth therein. A waiver of one event shall not be construed as continuing or as a bar to or waiver of any right or remedy granted to Holder hereunder in connection with a subsequent event.
25. Joint and Several Obligation . If Maker is more than one person or entity, then: (a) all persons or entities comprising Maker are jointly and severally liable for all of Makers obligations hereunder; (b) all representations, warranties and covenants made by Maker shall be deemed representations, warranties and covenants of each of the persons or entities comprising Maker; (c) any breach, Default or Event of Default by any of the persons or entities comprising Maker hereunder shall be deemed to be a breach, Default or Event of Default of Maker; and (d) any reference herein contained to the knowledge or awareness of Maker shall mean the knowledge or awareness of any of the persons or entities comprising Maker.
26. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL . MAKER AND HOLDER KNOWINGLY, IRREVOCABLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT EITHER MAKER OR HOLDER MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM BASED ON THIS NOTE, OR ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS NOTE, THE MORTGAGE, OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS OR ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT, COURSE OF DEALING, STATEMENT (WHETHER VERBAL OR WRITTEN) OR ACTIONS OF ANY PARTY HERETO OR TO ANY LOAN DOCUMENT. THIS PROVISION IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR MAKER AND HOLDER TO ENTER INTO THE LOAN TRANSACTION EVIDENCED BY THIS NOTE.

EXCEPT AS EXPLICITLY SET FORTH HEREIN, MAKER HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE UNDER APPLICABLE LAW TO PREPAY THIS NOTE, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, WITHOUT PREPAYMENT PREMIUM, UPON ACCELERATION OF THE MATURITY DATE OF THIS NOTE, AND AGREES THAT, IF FOR ANY REASON A PREPAYMENT OF ALL OR ANY PART OF THIS NOTE IS MADE, WHETHER VOLUNTARILY OR FOLLOWING ANY ACCELERATION OF THE MATURITY DATE OF THIS NOTE BY HOLDER ON ACCOUNT OF THE OCCURRENCE OF ANY EVENT OF DEFAULT ARISING FOR ANY REASON, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, AS A RESULT OF ANY PROHIBITED OR RESTRICTED TRANSFER, FURTHER ENCUMBRANCE OR DISPOSITION OF THE PROPERTY OR ANY PART THEREOF SECURING THIS NOTE, THEN MAKER SHALL BE OBLIGATED TO PAY, CONCURRENTLY WITH SUCH PREPAYMENT, THE PREPAYMENT PREMIUM PROVIDED FOR IN THIS NOTE OR, IN THE EVENT OF PREPAYMENT FOLLOWING ACCELERATION OF THE MATURITY DATE HEREOF WHEN THIS NOTE IS CLOSED TO PREPAYMENT, AS PROVIDED HEREIN AND IN THE MORTGAGE. MAKER HEREBY DECLARES THAT HOLDERS AGREEMENT TO MAKE THE LOAN AT THE INTEREST RATE AND FOR THE TERM SET FORTH IN THIS NOTE CONSTITUTES ADEQUATE CONSIDERATION, GIVEN INDIVIDUAL WEIGHT BY MAKER, FOR THIS WAIVER AND AGREEMENT.

WHEREAS, Mortgagor is the owner of the Property (hereinafter described) and Mortgagee is the owner of the mortgages covering the fee estate of Mortgagor in the Property and more particularly described in Exhibit C attached hereto (collectively, hereinafter referred to as the Prior Mortgages ), and of the Prior Notes (as defined in the Note , as such term is hereinafter defined);

1A.2. Consolidation. The Prior Mortgages and respective liens thereof are hereby combined, consolidated and spread so that together there shall hereafter constitute in law but one mortgage, a single lien covering the Property and securing the principal sum of FOUR MILLION SIX HUNDRED THIRTY NINE THOUSAND SIX HUNDRED AND NO/100THS DOLLARS ($4,639,600), together with interest thereon and other sums as hereinafter provided (the Prior Mortgages, as spread, combined and consolidated and as modified, amended, restated, ratified and confirmed pursuant to the provisions of this agreement hereinafter set forth, are hereinafter collectively included in the definition of the Mortgage ).

Such exchange of the Prior Notes shall not be deemed, under any circumstances, an extinguishment or cancellation of the indebtedness evidenced by the Prior Notes or the creation or substitution of new indebtedness, it being agreed that such Note shall merely be evidence of the indebtedness theretofore evidenced by the Prior Notes. All debts evidenced by the Prior Notes are combined and consolidated by the Note to constitute one joint indebtedness in the principal sum of $4,639,600 together with interest thereon.

The principal balance, interest and all other sums which may or shall become due under the Note, and all sums which may or shall become due pursuant to this Mortgage are hereinafter referred to as the Debt , and shall be secured by this Mortgage.
1A.5. Recording and Taxes. Mortgagor shall promptly cause this Mortgage to be filed, registered or recorded in such manner and in such places as may be required by any present or future law in order to publish notice of and to fully protect the lien of this Mortgage upon, and the interest of Mortgagee in, the Property. Mortgagor will pay all filing, registrations and recording fees, and all expenses incident to the preparation, execution and acknowledgment of this Mortgage, and all federal, state, county and municipal taxes, duties, imposts, assessments and charges arising out of or in connection with the filing, registration, recording, execution and delivery of this Mortgage and Mortgagor shall hold harmless and indemnify Mortgagee against any liability incurred by reason of the imposition of any tax on the issuances, making, filing, registration or recording of this Mortgage.

No Offsets, Counterclaims, etc. Mortgagor represents, warrants and covenants that there are no offsets, counterclaims or defenses against the Debt, this Mortgage or the Note, that the Debt constitutes a valid and binding obligation of Mortgagor and that Mortgagor (and the undersigned representative of Mortgagor, if any) has full power, authority and legal right to execute this Mortgage and to keep and observe all of the terms of this Mortgage on Mortgagors part to be observed or performed.

4.1 Payment of Note. Mortgagor shall pay all principal, interest and other sums payable under the Note or the other Loan Documents on the date when such payments are due, without notice or demand.
4.2 Performance of Other Obligations. Mortgagor shall promptly perform and comply with all other covenants, conditions and prohibitions required of Mortgagor by the terms of the Loan Documents.
4.3 Other Encumbrances. Mortgagor shall promptly perform and comply, in all material respects, with all covenants, conditions and prohibitions required of Mortgagor in connection with any Access Agreement and any other encumbrance affecting the Property, the Chattels or the Intangible Personalty, or any part thereof, or any interest therein, regardless of whether such other encumbrance is superior or subordinate to the lien hereof.
4.4 Payment of Taxes.
(a) Property Taxes . Unless Mortgagor is depositing money into escrow pursuant to Section 4.4(b) , Mortgagor shall (i) pay, before delinquency and before the imposition of any penalty or interest, all taxes and assessments, general or special, which may be levied or imposed at any time against Mortgagors interest and estate in the Property, the Chattels or the Intangible Personalty, and (ii) within ten (10) days after each payment of any such tax or assessment, Mortgagor will deliver to Mortgagee, without notice or demand, an official receipt for such payment. Unless Taxes are being paid by Mortgagee, Mortgagor shall provide Mortgagee with reasonably satisfactory evidence of the payment of all such taxes and assessments, general or special, which may be levied or imposed at any time against Mortgagors interest and estate in the Property, the Chattels or the Intangible Personalty within ten (10) days following any such payment.
(b) Deposit for Taxes . On the date hereof, Mortgagor shall deposit with Mortgagee an amount equal to l/12th of the amount which Mortgagee estimates will be required to make the next annual payment of taxes, assessments and similar governmental charges referred to in this Section, multiplied by the number of whole or partial months that have elapsed since the date one month prior to the most recent due date for such taxes, assessments and similar governmental charges. Thereafter, with each monthly payment under the Note, Mortgagor shall deposit with Mortgagee an amount equal to l/12th of the amount which Mortgagee estimates will be required to pay the next annual payment of taxes, assessments and similar governmental charges referred to in this Section. The purpose of these provisions is to provide Mortgagee with sufficient funds on hand to pay all such taxes, assessments and other governmental charges thirty (30) days before the date on which they become past due. If Mortgagee, in its sole discretion, determines that the funds escrowed hereunder are, or will be, insufficient, Mortgagor shall upon demand pay such additional sums as Mortgagee shall determine necessary and shall pay any increased monthly charges requested by Mortgagee. Provided no Event of Default exists hereunder, Mortgagee will apply the amounts so deposited to the payment of such taxes, assessments and other charges when due, but in no event will Mortgagee be liable for any interest on any amount so deposited, and any amount so deposited may be held and commingled with Mortgagees own funds.
(c) Intangible Taxes . If by reason of any statutory or constitutional amendment or judicial decision adopted or rendered after the date hereof, any tax, assessment or similar charge is imposed against the Note, Mortgagee, or any interest of Mortgagee in any real or personal property encumbered hereby, Mortgagor will pay such tax, assessment or other charge before delinquency and will indemnify Mortgagee against all loss, expense or diminution of income in connection therewith. In the event Mortgagor is unable to do so, either for economic reasons or because the legal provisions or decisions creating such tax, assessment or charge forbid Mortgagor from doing so, then the Note will, at Mortgagees option, become due and payable in full upon thirty (30) days notice to Mortgagor.
(d) Right to Contest . Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section, Mortgagor will not be deemed to be in default solely by reason of Mortgagors failure to pay any tax, assessment or similar governmental charge so long as, in Mortgagees judgment, each of the following conditions is satisfied:
(i) Mortgagor is engaged in and diligently pursuing in good faith administrative or judicial proceedings appropriate to contest the validity or amount of such tax, assessment or charge;
(ii) Mortgagors payment of such tax, assessment or charge would necessarily and materially prejudice Mortgagors prospects for success in such proceedings;
(iii) Nonpayment of such tax, assessment, or charge will not result in the loss or forfeiture of any property encumbered hereby or any interest of Mortgagee therein; and
(iv) Mortgagor deposits with Mortgagee, as security for such payment which may ultimately be required, a sum equal to the amount of the disputed tax, assessment or charge plus the interest, penalties, advertising charges and other costs which Mortgagee estimates are likely to become payable if Mortgagors contest is unsuccessful. For the avoidance of doubt, the funds required to be deposited with Mortgagee under this paragraph (iv) shall be in addition to all taxes, assessments and other governmental charges that are not being contested and that are subject to the deposit provisions of Section 4.4(b) hereof.
If Mortgagee determines that any one or more of such conditions is not satisfied or is no longer satisfied, Mortgagor will pay the tax, assessment or charge in question, together with any interest and penalties thereon, within ten (10) days after Mortgagee gives notice of such determination.
4.5 Maintenance of Insurance.
(a) Coverages Required . Mortgagor shall maintain or cause to be maintained, with financially sound and reputable insurance companies or associations satisfactory to Mortgagee, all insurance required under the terms of the Insurance Agreement, and shall comply with each and every covenant and agreement contained in such Insurance Agreement. Mortgagor shall provide Mortgagee with reasonably satisfactory evidence of the payment of the premiums of all such insurance within five (5) business days following the any such payment.
(b) Renewal Policies . Not less than thirty (30) days prior to the expiration date of each insurance policy required pursuant to the Insurance Agreement, Mortgagor will deliver to Mortgagee either an appropriate renewal policy (or a certified copy thereof), together with evidence satisfactory to Mortgagee that the applicable premium has been prepaid.
(c) Deposit for Premiums . If an Event of Default exists or if Mortgagor shall fail to provide Mortgagee with evidence of insurance as and when required under this Mortgage and the Insurance Agreement, Mortgagor shall deposit with Mortgagee an amount equal to 1/12th of the amount which Mortgagee estimates will be required to make the next annual payments of the premiums for the policies of insurance referred to in this Section, multiplied by the number of whole and partial months which have elapsed since the date one month prior to the most recent policy anniversary date for each such policy. Thereafter, with each monthly payment under the Note, Mortgagor will deposit an amount equal to l/12th of the amount which Mortgagee estimates will be required to pay the next required annual premium for each insurance policy referred to in this Section. The purpose of these provisions is to provide Mortgagee with sufficient funds on hand to pay all such premiums thirty (30) days before the date on which they become past due. If Mortgagee, in its sole discretion, determines that the funds escrowed hereunder are, or will be, insufficient, Mortgagor shall upon demand, pay such additional sums as Mortgagee shall determine as necessary and shall pay any increased monthly charges requested by Mortgagee. Provided no Event of Default exists hereunder, Mortgagee will apply the amounts so deposited to the payment of such insurance premiums when due, but in no event will Mortgagee be liable for any interest on any amounts so deposited, and the money so received may be held and commingled with Mortgagees own funds.
(d) Application of Hazard Insurance Proceeds . Mortgagor shall after learning thereof promptly notify Mortgagee of any damage or casualty to all or any portion of the Property or Chattels. Mortgagee may participate in all negotiations and appear and participate in all judicial or arbitration proceedings concerning any insurance proceeds which may be payable as a result of such casualty or damage, and may, in Mortgagees sole discretion, compromise or settle, in the names of both Mortgagor and Mortgagee, any claim for any such insurance proceeds; provided, however, that in any event any such compromise or settlement shall be subject to the prior consent of Mortgagee, which may be granted or withheld in Mortgagees discretion. Any such insurance proceeds shall be paid directly to Mortgagee and shall be applied first to reimburse Mortgagee for all out-of-pocket costs and expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys fees, actually incurred by Mortgagee in connection with the ascertainment and collection of such insurance proceeds. The balance, if any, of any insurance proceeds received by Mortgagee with respect to an insured damage or casualty shall, in Mortgagees sole discretion, either (i) be retained and applied by Mortgagee toward payment of the Secured Obligations, in such order and manner as Mortgagee deems appropriate, or (ii) be paid over, in whole or in part and subject to such conditions as Mortgagee may impose, to Mortgagor to pay for repairs or replacements necessitated by the damage or casualty; provided, however, that if all of the Secured Obligations have been performed or are discharged by the application of less than all of such insurance proceeds, then any remaining proceeds will be paid over to Mortgagor.
Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.5(d) , Mortgagee shall make any such insurance proceeds available to Mortgagor for restoration of the Property, provided, and on the following conditions: (A) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, (B) Mortgagor demonstrates to the reasonable satisfaction of Mortgagee that Mortgagor has the financial ability to pay all principal and interest required under the Note, and perform all of the other Secured Obligations, during the restoration of the Property from the proceeds of rent loss or business interruption insurance or otherwise, (C) the damage or casualty occurs prior to the last six (6) months of the term of the Loan and the restoration is capable of being completed prior to the stated maturity date of the Loan, (D) all insurance proceeds and other funds provided by Mortgagor for the restoration are released under escrow and construction funding arrangements reasonably satisfactory to Mortgagee, (E) the repair or restoration will return the Property to substantially the same size, design and utility as existed immediately prior to the damage or casualty, (F) in the event the proceeds of insurance are insufficient to pay by themselves for the restoration (as determined in good faith by Mortgagee), Mortgagor shall, prior to the commencement of any restoration work, deposit with Mortgagee within fifteen (15) days after the date on which the proceeds of insurance are received by Mortgagee such additional funds as in the good faith opinion of Mortgagee are necessary to complete the restoration; (G) Mortgagor undertakes and covenants and agrees (in writing) with Mortgagee to fund any and all deficiencies within fifteen (15) days after being notified in writing thereof and prior to the distribution of any further insurance proceeds, so that at all times the funds held by Mortgagee and remaining to be disbursed for purposes of the restoration shall be sufficient to complete the work; (H) the annual income from the Leases that are in existence as of the date hereof or executed in accordance with the provisions of this Mortgage and that will survive the restoration or repair of the Property produce a Debt Service Coverage Ratio of not less than 1.2 to 1.0, and Mortgagor demonstrates to Mortgagees reasonable satisfaction that Mortgagor will be able to attain Debt Service Coverage Ratio of at least 1.2 to 1.0 from Leases that are in existence as of the date hereof or executed in accordance with the provisions of this Mortgage within six (6) months after completion of the restoration; and (I) if any site plan amendment, variance, special use permit or other similar special approval or consent is required from any government authority or any other Person for such repair or restoration, Mortgagor shall obtain and deliver to Mortgagee such site plan amendment, variance, special use permit or other similar special approval or consent within one hundred eighty (180) days following such casualty or damage (but such one hundred eighty (180) day time period shall in all respects be subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.5(d) and shall not extend or otherwise modify any time periods in such foregoing provisions). Mortgagee may, prior to the application of insurance proceeds, commingle them with Mortgagees own funds and otherwise act with regard to such proceeds as Mortgagee may determine in Mortgagees sole discretion. If Mortgagee applies the insurance proceeds to the Secured Obligations due to the failure of the conditions under clause (H) of this Section 4.5(d) to be satisfied, then Mortgagor may, upon written notice delivered to Mortgagee within thirty (30) days following such application of the insurance proceeds to the Secured Obligations, elect to prepay the full principal amount of the Loan and all other amounts due under the Loan Documents, together with all accrued but unpaid interest thereon, and all other Secured Obligations, without any prepayment premium or penalty, such prepayment to be made within one-hundred eighty (180) days following such application of the insurance proceeds; provided, however, that Mortgagor continues to pay and fulfill all of Mortgagors obligations under this Note, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents up to and including the date of such full prepayment. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.5 , in the event the insurance proceeds are less than $250,000 and there does not exist any Default or Event of Default, then (i) Mortgagor may compromise or settle the claim for such proceeds, (ii) the proceeds shall be paid directly to Mortgagor and (iii) Mortgagor shall undertake and complete the repair or restoration of the Property so as to return the Property to substantially the same size, design and utility as existed immediately prior to the damage or casualty and shall fund any deficiency in the event such proceeds are insufficient to complete such repair or restoration.
(e) Successors Rights . Any person who acquires title to the Property or the Chattels upon foreclosure hereunder will succeed to all of Mortgagors rights under all policies of insurance maintained pursuant to this Section.

Mortgagor shall maintain access to and egress from the Property by public streets. Subject to the provisions of Section 4.15(b) , Mortgagor will comply with (or cause compliance with) all statutes, ordinances, and other governmental or quasi-governmental requirements and private covenants relating to the ownership, construction, use, or operation of the Property, including but not limited to, any zoning requirements, any environmental or ecological requirements and any requirements regarding access for persons with disabilities. Mortgagee and any Person authorized by Mortgagee may upon prior notice to Mortgagor enter and inspect the Property at all reasonable times, and may inspect the Chattels, wherever located, at all reasonable times. Mortgagor shall take all actions necessary or required under the Leases to effect the provisions of the immediately preceding sentence. Mortgagor shall maintain all public utility services (including, without limitation, water supply, storm and sanitary sewer facilities, and natural gas, electric, telephone, cable television and high speed Internet access facilities) necessary for the operation of the Property (including, without limitation, improvements constituting part of the Property) for its intended purposes, and, without limiting such maintenance requirement, shall maintain such services at the boundaries of the land constituting part of the Property. Mortgagor shall comply (or cause compliance with) with all requirements of any insurance company or inspection or rating bureau in respect of the Property, including, without limitation, any requirements for the continuation of any insurance coverage or the continuation thereof at premium rates.

Mortgagor and none of the Mortgagor Control Persons shall enter into any contract or agreement that contravenes any of the Loan Documents or which provides or has the effect that the performance of the Loan Documents constitutes a default under such contract or agreement or results in the creation of any lien, security interest, other charge or encumbrance upon or with respect to its properties.
Mortgagor shall perform, observe and fulfill, in all material respects, and shall cause Guarantors to perform, observe and fulfill, in all material respects, all of the obligations, covenants and conditions set forth in any agreement or instrument to which Mortgagor or Guarantors, as the case may be, or any of the properties, assets or revenues of Mortgagor or Guarantors, as the case may be, are bound, if the failure to perform, observe or fulfill any such obligation, covenant or condition would materially and adversely affect the properties, assets, operations or condition (financial or otherwise) of Mortgagor or Guarantors, as the case may be, or the ability of any party to the Loan Documents to perform such partys obligations under the Loan Documents.
4.7 Leases. Mortgagor shall timely pay and perform each of its obligations under or in connection with the Leases, and shall otherwise pay such sums and take such action as shall be necessary or required in order to maintain each of the Leases in full force and effect in accordance with its terms. Mortgagor shall within five (5) business days following receipt thereof, furnish to Mortgagee copies of any notices given to Mortgagor by the lessee under any Lease, alleging the default by Mortgagor in the timely payment or performance of its obligations under such Lease, or purporting to terminate or cancel any Lease prior to its stated expiration date, or requiring or demanding the expenditure of any sum by Mortgagor (or demanding the taking of any action by Mortgagor), and any subsequent communications related thereto. Mortgagor agrees that Mortgagee, in its sole discretion, five (5) days following notice to Mortgagor from Mortgagee and provided that Mortgagor fails to take action to perform its obligations under such Lease within the five (5) days following such notice to Mortgagor from Mortgagee, may advance any sum or take any action which Mortgagee reasonably believes is necessary or required to maintain the Leases in full force and effect, and all such sums advanced by Mortgagee, together with all costs and expenses incurred by Mortgagee in connection with action taken by Mortgagee pursuant to this Section, shall be due and payable by Mortgagor to Mortgagee upon demand, shall bear interest until paid at the Default Rate, and shall be secured by this Mortgage.

Any such award or payment shall be paid directly to Mortgagee and shall be applied first to reimburse Mortgagee for all costs and expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys fees, incurred by Mortgagee in connection with the ascertainment and collection of such award or payment. The balance, if any, of such award or payment received by Mortgagee with respect to a condemnation shall, in Mortgagees sole discretion, either (i) be retained and applied by Mortgagee toward payment of the Secured Obligations, in such order and manner as Mortgagee deems appropriate, or (ii) be paid over, in whole or in part and subject to such conditions as Mortgagee may impose, to Mortgagor for the purpose of restoring, repairing, or rebuilding any part of the Property affected by the taking or damage.
Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.8 , Mortgagee shall make any such award or payment available to Mortgagor for restoration of the Property, provided, and on the following conditions: (A) no Event of Default or monetary or material non-monetary Default shall have occurred and be continuing, (B) Mortgagor demonstrates to the reasonable satisfaction of Mortgagee that Mortgagor has the financial ability to pay all principal and interest required under the Note, and perform all of the other Secured Obligations, during the restoration of the Property from the proceeds of rent loss or business interruption insurance or otherwise, (C) the damage occurs prior to the last six (6) months of the term of the Loan and the restoration is capable of being completed prior to the stated maturity date of the Loan, (D) any condemnation award and other funds provided by Mortgagor for the restoration are released under escrow and construction funding arrangements reasonably satisfactory to Mortgagee, (E) the repair or restoration will return the Property to substantially the same size, design and utility as existed immediately prior to the damage, (F) in the event the condemnation award is insufficient to pay by itself for the restoration (as determined in good faith by Mortgagee), Mortgagor shall, prior to the commencement of any restoration work, deposit with Mortgagee within fifteen (15) days after the date on which the condemnation award is received by Mortgagee such additional funds as in the good faith opinion of Mortgagee are necessary to complete the restoration; (G) Mortgagor undertakes and covenants and agrees (in writing) with Mortgagee to fund any and all deficiencies within fifteen (15) days after being notified in writing thereof and prior to the distribution of any further portion of the condemnation award, so that at all times the funds held by Mortgagee and remaining to be disbursed for purposes of the restoration shall be sufficient to complete the work; (H) the annual income from the Leases that are in existence as of the date hereof or executed in accordance with the provisions of this Mortgage and that will survive the restoration or repair of the Property produce a Debt Service Coverage Ratio of not less than 1.2 to 1.0, and Mortgagor demonstrates to Mortgagees reasonable satisfaction that Mortgagor will be able to attain Debt Service Coverage Ratio of at least 1.2 to 1.0 from Leases that are in existence as of the date hereof or executed in accordance with the provisions of this Mortgage within six (6) months after completion of the restoration; and (I) if any site plan amendment, variance, special use permit or other similar special approval or consent is required from any government authority or any other Person for such repair or restoration, Mortgagor shall obtain and deliver to Mortgagee such site plan amendment, variance, special use permit or other similar special approval or consent within one hundred eighty (180) days following such taking or condemnation (but such one hundred eighty (180) day time period shall in all respects be subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.8 and shall not extend or otherwise modify any time periods in such foregoing provisions). Mortgagee may, prior to the application of any condemnation award, commingle it with Mortgagees own funds and otherwise act with regard to such award as Mortgagee may determine in Mortgagees sole discretion. If Mortgagee applies the condemnation award to the Secured Obligations due to the failure of the conditions under clause (H) of this Section 4.8 to be satisfied, then Mortgagor may, upon written notice delivered to Mortgagee within thirty (30) days following such application of the condemnation award to the Secured Obligations, elect to prepay the full principal amount of the Loan and all other amounts due under the Loan Documents, together with all accrued but unpaid interest thereon, and all other Secured Obligations, without any prepayment premium or penalty, such prepayment to be made within one-hundred eighty (180) days following such application of the condemnation award; provided, however, that Mortgagor continues to pay and fulfill all of Mortgagors obligations under this Note, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents up to and including the date of such full prepayment.
If this Mortgage has been foreclosed prior to Mortgagees receipt of such award or payment, Mortgagee may nonetheless retain such award or payment to the extent required to reimburse Mortgagee for all costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys fees, incurred in connection therewith, and to discharge any deficiency remaining with respect to the Secured Obligations.
Mortgagee will have no obligation to see to the proper application of any proceeds paid over to Mortgagor, nor will any such proceeds received by Mortgagee bear interest or be subject to any other charge for the benefit of Mortgagor. If such proceeds are deposited with Mortgagee, Mortgagee may, prior to the application of such proceeds, commingle them with Mortgagees own funds and otherwise act with regard to such proceeds as Mortgagee may determine in Mortgagees sole discretion.
4.9 Mechanics Liens. Mortgagor will keep the Property free and clear of all liens and claims of liens by contractors, subcontractors, mechanics, laborers, materialmen, and other such persons, and will cause any recorded statement of any such lien to be released of record or bonded off within sixty (60) days after the recording thereof. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, however, Mortgagor will not be deemed to be in default under this Section if and so long as Mortgagor (a) contests in good faith the validity or amount of any asserted lien and diligently prosecutes or defends an action appropriate to obtain a binding determination of the disputed matter, (b) provides Mortgagee with such security as Mortgagee may reasonably require to protect Mortgagee against all loss, damage and expense, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys fees, which Mortgagee might incur if the asserted lien is determined to be valid (which security may, at the option of Mortgagor, be in the form of a bond over such lien, provided that such bond either removes any such lien of record or prevents the filing of any such lien of record).
4.10 Defense of Actions. Mortgagor will defend, at Mortgagors expense, any action, proceeding or claim which affects any property encumbered hereby or any interest of Mortgagee in such property or in the Secured Obligations, and Mortgagor will indemnify and hold Mortgagee harmless from all loss, damage, cost, or expense, including attorneys fees, which Mortgagee may incur in connection therewith.
4.11 Expenses of Enforcement. Mortgagor will pay all costs and expenses, which Mortgagee may incur in connection with any effort or action (whether or not litigation or foreclosure is involved) to enforce or defend Mortgagees rights and remedies under any of the Loan Documents, including, but not limited to, all attorneys fees, appraisal fees, consultants fees, and other expenses incurred by Mortgagee in securing title to or possession of, and realizing upon, any security for the Secured Obligations. All such costs and expenses (together with interest thereon at the Default Rate from the date incurred) shall constitute part of the Secured Obligations, and may be included in the computation of the amount owed to Mortgagee for purposes of foreclosing or otherwise enforcing this Mortgage.
4.12 Financial Reports. Mortgagor shall furnish to Mortgagee (a) within ninety (90) days following the end of each fiscal year of Mortgagor, Mortgagors quarterly and annual operating statements for the Property as of the end of and for the preceding quarter and fiscal year, as applicable, in each case prepared against the budget for such fiscal year, as may be applicable, (b) contemporaneously with the delivery of each of such operating statements of the Property, a rent roll certified, signed and dated by Mortgagor detailing the names of all tenants under the Leases, the portion of the improvements on the Property occupied by each tenant, the rent and any other charges payable under each Lease and the term of each Lease, (c) the annual balance sheet and profit and loss statement of Mortgagor and an annual balance sheet of each Guarantor and (d) the federal and state tax returns of each Guarantor not later than the date that is ten (10) days following the date that such federal and state tax returns are filed. The financial statements and reports described in (a) and (c) above shall be in such form and in such detail as Mortgagee may require, shall be prepared on a tax basis (with respect to Mortgagor only) and shall be certified as true and correct by Mortgagor or each Guarantor, as may be applicable (or if required by Mortgagee, after the occurrence of an Event of Default, by an independent certified public accountant acceptable to Mortgagee). Mortgagor shall file and pay its annual tax returns and taxes in a timely manner. Mortgagor shall also furnish or cause to be furnished to Mortgagee within forty-five (45) after Mortgagees request, any other financial reports or statements of Mortgagor, including, without limitation, balance sheets, profit and loss statements, tax returns (within fifteen (15) days after filing with the applicable governmental authority), other financial statements, and certified rent rolls, required under any of the Loan Documents, requested by any regulatory or governmental authority exercising jurisdiction over Mortgagee, certified as, true and correct by Mortgagor. Following the occurrence of any Event of Default, Mortgagor shall deliver to Mortgagee the items required in (a) and (b) above on a monthly basis. Mortgagors financial statements will be prepared by Shapiro, Goldstein and Moses, or Kimmel Blau or a reasonable comparable firm selected by Mortgagor, and reasonably approved by Mortgagee.
4.13 Priority of Leases. To the extent Mortgagor has the right, under the terms of any Lease, to make such Lease subordinate to the lien hereof, Mortgagor will, at Mortgagees request and Mortgagors expense, take such action as may be reasonably required to effect such subordination. Conversely, Mortgagor will, at Mortgagees request and Mortgagors expense, take such action as may be necessary to subordinate the lien hereof to any future Lease designated by Mortgagee. The standard form of Lease used by Mortgagor shall provide that the Lease is subject and subordinate to the Mortgage and all future mortgages affecting the Property. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, however, Mortgagee shall provide an SNDA, in Mortgagees standard form, for each Lease that does not require Mortgagees approval under this Mortgage or that has been approved by Mortgagee; provided, however, that if any tenant under any such Lease requests a different form of such an agreement or modifications to Mortgagees standard form of such agreement, then Mortgagee shall use commercially reasonable efforts to negotiate a form of such an agreement that is mutually acceptable to Mortgagee and such tenant. In no event, however, shall Mortgagee be required to enter into a form of such agreement that is not commercially reasonably acceptable to Mortgagee.
4.14 Inventories; Assembly of Chattels. Mortgagor shall, from time to time at request of Mortgagee, deliver to Mortgagee a current inventory of the Chattels and the Intangible Personalty, in such detail as Mortgagee may require. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default hereunder, Mortgagor will at Mortgagees request assemble the Chattels and make them available to Mortgagee at any place designated by Mortgagee which is reasonably convenient to both parties.
4.15 Compliance with Laws, Existence, Etc. (a) Mortgagor shall comply in all material respects with all applicable laws, rules, regulations and orders and other governmental or quasi-governmental requirements and private covenants, such compliance to include, without limitation, maintaining all Permits and paying before the same become delinquent all taxes, assessments and governmental charges imposed upon Mortgagor or the Property. Mortgagor shall maintain all Permits necessary or desirable for the operation, ownership, use, development, occupancy and maintenance of the Property for its current use, and without limiting this covenant of Mortgagor, Mortgagor shall make application for renewals of any of the Permits prior to the expiration thereof. Mortgagor shall, promptly after receiving notice thereof, notify Mortgagee of any litigation, action, proceeding or investigation against Mortgagor or any Mortgagor Control Person or the Property before any court, governmental or quasi-governmental arbitrator or other authority and, upon reasonable request of Mortgagee, from time to time provide Mortgagee with status or other information in respect thereof. Mortgagor and each Mortgagor Control Person shall do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve, renew and keep in full force and effect its existence as a limited liability company, corporation or other entity, as may be applicable, and to maintain its authorization to perform the obligations under the Loan Documents. Neither Mortgagor nor any Mortgagor Control Person shall amend or modify its organizational documents so as to contravene any of the Loan Documents or to prevent the observance of the obligations under the Loan Documents. Mortgagor and each Mortgagor Control Person shall comply in material respects with all applicable laws, rules, regulations and orders and other governmental or quasi-governmental requirements, and shall obtain all authorizations, approvals and consents from, and shall make all notices and filings with, any court, governmental, authority or regulatory body, in respect of its right and ability to perform, or cause the performance of, the obligations under the Loan Documents. Mortgagor shall maintain its status as non-foreign person within the meaning of Sections 1445 and 7701 of the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the regulations issued thereunder.
(b) Right to Contest . Notwithstanding any other provision of this Mortgage, Mortgagor will not be deemed to be in default solely by reason of Mortgagors failure to comply with any applicable law, rule, regulation or order so long as, in Mortgagees judgment, each of the following conditions is satisfied:
(i) Mortgagor is engaged in and diligently pursuing in good faith administrative or judicial proceedings appropriate to contest the validity or applicability of such law, rule, regulation or order; and
(ii) Noncompliance with any such law, rule, regulation or order will not result in the loss or forfeiture of any property encumbered hereby or any interest of Mortgagee therein or result in any fines or other punitive actions or any loss or impairment of insurance coverage; and
(iii) Mortgagor deposits with Mortgagee, as security for any payment or performance which may ultimately be required, a sum equal to the amount of any fine, assessment or charge plus the interest, penalties, and other costs which Mortgagee reasonably estimates are likely to become payable if Mortgagors contest is unsuccessful.
If Mortgagee determines that any one or more of such conditions is not satisfied or is no longer satisfied, then Mortgagor shall comply with the law, rule, regulation or order in question, within thirty (30) days after Mortgagee gives notice of such determination.
4.16 Records and Books of Account. Mortgagor shall keep accurate and complete records and books of account, in which complete entries will be made, reflecting all financial transactions relating to the Property.
4.17 Inspection Rights. At any reasonable time, and from time to time, upon not less than 24 hours prior notice from Mortgagee, Mortgagor shall permit Mortgagee, or any agents or representatives thereof, to examine and make copies of and abstracts from the records and books of account of, and visit and inspect the Property and to discuss with Mortgagor the affairs, finances and accounts of Mortgagor. Mortgagor shall take all actions necessary or required under the Leases to effect such right of Mortgagee to inspect the Property.
4.18 Change of Executive Offices. Mortgagor shall promptly notify Mortgagee if changes are made in the location of Mortgagors primary executive offices.

Mortgagor will execute and deliver to Mortgagee within ten (10) days after any request by Mortgagee, and pay the costs of preparation and recording thereof, any further documents which Mortgagee may reasonably request to confirm or perfect the liens and security interests created or intended to be created hereby, or to confirm or perfect any evidence of the Secured Obligations. Mortgagor will also, within ten (10) days after any request by Mortgagee, deliver to Mortgagee a signed and acknowledged statement certifying to Mortgagee, or to any proposed transferee of the Secured Obligations, (a) the balance of principal, interest, and other sums then outstanding under the Note and the other Loan Documents and (b) whether Mortgagor claims to have any offsets or defenses with respect to the Secured Obligations and, if so, the nature of such offsets or defenses.
4.20 Costs of Closing. Mortgagor shall on demand pay directly or reimburse Mortgagee for any costs or expenses reasonably incurred in connection with the closing of the Loan, including, but not limited to, fees of counsel for Mortgagee and costs and expenses for which invoices were not available at the closing of such loan, or costs and expenses which are incurred by Mortgagee after such closing. All such costs and expenses (together with interest thereon at the Default Rate from the date of demand by Mortgagee) shall constitute a part of the Secured Obligations, and may be included in the computation of the amount owed to Mortgagee for purposes of foreclosing or otherwise enforcing this Mortgage.
4.21 Fund for Electronic Transfer. All monthly payments of principal and interest on the Note, escrow deposits and other amounts due under this Mortgage or the other Loan Documents shall be made by Mortgagor by electronic funds transfer from a bank account established and maintained by Mortgagor for such purpose.
Mortgagor shall establish and maintain such account until the Secured Obligations are fully paid and shall direct the depository of such account in writing to so transmit such payments on or before the respective due dates to the account of Mortgagee as shall be designated by Mortgagee in writing.

The Property shall not be managed by any Person other than Mortgagor, except under a management agreement delivered to, and approved by, Mortgagee (the Management Agreement ) and with a property manager consented to by Mortgagee (the Property Manager ). Any substitute or replacement Property Manager or any other change in Property Manager shall be subject to the prior written consent of Mortgagee in its sole discretion. Mortgagor shall not permit any amendment to or modification of any Management Agreement, or management of the Property by any Person other than Mortgagor or Property Manager, without the prior written consent of Mortgagee. Any such Property Manager shall execute a Subordination Agreement in respect of its Management Agreement in form and substance satisfactory to Mortgagee.
4.24 Cash Management Lockbox.
(a) At or prior to the closing of the Loan, Mortgagee and Mortgagor shall enter into the Cash Management Agreement, pursuant to which Mortgagor and Mortgagee shall establish a lockbox account ( Lockbox Account ) into which all proceeds and revenues from the Property will be deposited, and a cash collateral account ( Cash Collateral Account ), into which such proceeds and revenues may be swept pursuant to Section 4.24(f) below, at a bank (the Lockbox Bank ) selected by Mortgagee, but reasonably acceptable to Mortgagor.
(b) Mortgagor shall, or shall cause each tenant at the Property and all other persons and/or entities that make payments in respect of the Property, to remit all amounts due with respect to the Property directly to a lockbox maintained by the Lockbox Bank or to wire such amounts directly into the Lockbox Account. Mortgagor and the Property Manager shall promptly deposit into the Lockbox Account any checks or payments they receive from time to time, notwithstanding such instructions to the tenants and such other person and/or entities, and the Mortgagor and Property Manager shall hold any such checks or payments in trust for the benefit of Mortgagee until such checks or amounts are deposited into the Lockbox Account.
(c) The Lockbox Bank and the Servicer retained by Mortgagee to service the Loan shall be authorized and empowered to endorse any and all checks from tenants solely for deposit into the Lockbox Account.
(d) The Lockbox Account and the Cash Collateral Account shall be in the name of Mortgagee or Servicer, as secured party (or agent for secured party), and shall be under the sole dominion and control of Mortgagee. Mortgagor shall grant Mortgagee a first priority security interest in the Lockbox Account and Cash Collateral Account and shall take all actions requested by Mortgagee to perfect such security interest.
(e) Amounts on deposit in the Lockbox Account shall be swept daily into an operating account (the Operating Account ) maintained by Mortgagor unless and until Servicer receives notice from Mortgagee that a Triggering Event (as defined below) has occurred, in which event the cash flow sweep described in Section 4.24(f) below shall apply.
(f) Upon the occurrence of any Triggering Event, Mortgagee, at its option, may cause Servicer to daily sweep 100% of all proceeds and revenues from the Property in the Lockbox Account into the Cash Collateral Account, and Mortgagee shall apply the same, to principal, interest and/or any other amounts due Mortgagee under the Loan Documents and to the costs and expenses of the operation and maintenance of the Property in such order as Mortgagee shall elect. Each of the following shall constitute a Triggering Event : (i) a Default under, and as defined in, the Loan Documents; (ii) an Event of Default under, and as defined in, the Loan Documents; or (iii) the Trigger Event Debt Service Coverage Ratio shall be less than 1.20 to 1.00.
(g) With respect to the first two (2) Triggering Events only, following the cure of any Default or Event of Default (that is accepted by Mortgagee in its sole discretion) with respect to which Mortgagee has notified Servicer that a Triggering Event has occurred or provided that the Property and the Additional Properties have achieved a Trigger Event Debt Service Coverage Ratio of at least 1.20 to 1.00, for two (2) consecutive quarters, as applicable, and after Mortgagee has applied all proceeds and revenues as described above, Mortgagee will release all excess amounts remaining in the Cash Collateral Account to Mortgagor, and Servicer will resume sweeping proceeds from the Lockbox Account into the Operating Account as provided in Section 4.24(e) above. For the avoidance of doubt, Mortgagor shall have no right to cure a Triggering Event following the second Triggering Event and any subsequent Triggering Event shall continue until such time as all principal, interest and all other amounts due and payable to Mortgagee under this Mortgage and the other Loan Documents have been paid or repaid in full, as applicable.
4.25 Single Purpose Entity . Mortgagor shall at all times be a Single Purpose Entity.
4.26 General Indemnity . Mortgagor agrees that while Mortgagee has no liability to any Person in tort or otherwise as lender and that while Mortgagee is not an owner or operator of the Property, Mortgagor shall, at its sole cost and expense, protect, defend, release, indemnify and hold harmless the Indemnified Parties (defined below) from any Losses (defined below) imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against the Indemnified Parties, directly or indirectly, arising out of or in connection with the Secured Obligations, the Property (or any portion thereof), the Loan, or the Loan Documents, any and all claims for brokerage, leasing, finders or similar fees that may be made relating to the Property and the Secured Obligations, or the exercise by Mortgagee of any rights or remedies granted to Mortgagee pursuant to this Mortgage, the other Loan Documents or applicable law; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not apply (a) to any Losses caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Indemnified Parties or (b) to any disputes among the Indemnified Parties not caused in whole or in part by a breach of Mortgagors obligations under the Loan Documents. The term Losses shall mean any claims, suits, liabilities (including strict liabilities), actions, proceedings, obligations, debts, damages, losses (including, without limitation, unrealized loss of value of the Property), costs, expenses, fines, penalties, charges, fees, judgments, awards, and amounts paid in settlement of whatever kind including reasonable attorneys fees and all other costs of defense.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 5.3, Mortgagor shall have the right to enter into Safe-Harbor Leases (as hereinafter defined) without Mortgagees prior written consent. A Safe-Harbor Lease shall mean any proposed market Lease that meets the following criteria: (A) the base rent payable under such proposed Lease is not less than the base rent being paid being paid by the tenant occupying the space as of the date of this Mortgage; (B) the rentable area to be demised pursuant to such proposed Lease which, when combined with any other space in the Property leased to affiliated entities of the tenant under such proposed Lease, is less than 10,000 square feet, (C) such proposed Lease shall be for a term of no less than three (3) years and no greater than ten (10) years including any tenants extension options, and (D) such proposed Lease shall satisfy the additional leasing guidelines set forth below:
(i) A Lease will qualify as a Safe-Harbor Lease when such Lease comes into effect, provided each of the following conditions, in addition to the conditions set forth above, are satisfied: (a) such Lease does not contain any options to purchase, or other rights to acquire, the Property or any portion thereof or interest therein, (b) such Lease does not contain any material restrictions on Mortgagors rights to lease the remaining portions of the Property not covered by such Lease, (c) such Lease does not contain any extraordinary, uncustomary and unduly burdensome landlord obligations (including obligations which an unaffiliated landlord would have difficulty performing), (d) such Lease is entered into on the standard form of Lease approved by Mortgagee, without material modification thereto and provided it conforms with the leasing guidelines and Lease provisions hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, (e) such Lease is entered into on arms-length terms and (f) not later than the date that is ten (10) days following the execution of such Lease or a modification or amendment of a Safe-Harbor Lease, Mortgagor shall provide Mortgagee with a certified copy of such Lease or such modification or amendment, together with (i) all other items required to be submitted with any Lease pursuant to Section 5.3(b) , and (ii) a certificate certifying that the Lease (or, if applicable, such Lease together with such modification or amendment) is a Safe Harbor Lease as defined in this Mortgage and that the Lease (or, if applicable, such Lease together with such modification or amendment) satisfies in all material respects the requirements set forth herein to be a Safe Harbor Lease.
(ii) For the avoidance of doubt, Mortgagor may (without the prior written consent of Mortgagee) enter into any modification or amendment of any Safe Harbor Leases so long as such Safe Harbor Lease shall remain a Safe Harbor Lease following such modification or amendment.
(iii) Mortgagee agrees that for any proposed Lease that does not qualify as a Safe Harbor Lease, for which Mortgagor is required to obtain Mortgagees consent thereto, Mortgagee will attempt to respond within ten (10) business days, and Mortgagees consent shall not be unreasonably withheld based upon market conditions. Mortgagor shall be permitted to submit a Lease summary term sheet, for purposes of obtaining Mortgagees approval, which sets out all of the economic terms of the proposed lease, as well as any deviations from Mortgagee approved standard form of lease. Mortgagees consent will be contingent on tenant signing the Mortgagee-approved standard form of lease. Mortgagee will not be obligated to enter into an SNDA for any tenant for which Mortgagor is requesting Mortgagee lease approval until such time as an executed Lease that complies with the provisions of this Mortgage is delivered to Mortgagee. If Mortgagee has failed to respond to the written request for consent of a proposed Lease after five (5) business days after its receipt thereof, together with any additional information that Mortgagee may reasonably require to evaluate such proposed Lease, and Mortgagor has provided a subsequent five (5) business days written notice to Mortgagee requesting consent, each notice marked with a legend in bold capital letters stating: MORTGAGEE SHALL BE DEEMED TO HAVE CONSENTED TO THE MATTER CONTAINED HEREIN IF IT FAILS TO RESPOND TO THIS REQUEST FOR CONSENT WITHIN 10/5 (as applicable) BUSINESS DAYS AFTER THE DATE HEREOF, then Mortgagee shall be deemed to have consented to the same.
(e) Mortgagor shall provide Mortgagee with a certified rent roll, on an annual basis, certifying to Mortgagee the following items: (a) name of tenant, (b) date of Lease, (c) rentable square footage, (d) space or unit number, (e) commencement and expiration dates, (f) commencement date of rental payments, (g) monthly base rent, (h) rent abatements (if any), (i) rent escalations, (j) all other rent items (including reimbursable expenses), (k) percentage rent breakpoint (if any), (l) expense stop (if applicable), (m) deposits, (n) guarantor (if any), (o) date of guaranty (if any), (p) options to purchase, extend, expand, renew and/or terminate, (q) operating covenant Go Dark rights, (r) co-tenancy clause and (s) any unextinguished tenant concessions.

(ii) There is no Event of Default at the time of such transfer;
(iii) If a change in the Property Manager for the Property (not a change in the manager or managing member of Mortgagor) will result from such transfer, Mortgagor shall enter into a Management Agreement with a Property Manager that has reasonably satisfactory experience operating and leasing property similar to the Property and that has a term no greater than one (1) year, may be cancelled on 30-days written notice (without cause and without any cancellation fee or charge), and which provides that the Property Manager shall subordinate its fees to the payment of the Loan, and otherwise complies with the terms of the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, Section 4.23 hereof);
(iv) Such Principal shall transfer an equal percentage of such Principals ownership interest in each of the other Borrowers such that each of the Principals percentage ownership interests of each of the Borrowers (including, without limitation, Mortgagor) shall be identical in respect of each other Borrower (including, without limitation, Mortgagor) both prior to and following any such transfer;
(v) At least thirty (30) days prior to such transfer (except in the event of death), Mortgagor shall provide Mortgagee with a certificate signed by all of the managers or managing members of Mortgagor certifying that no Event of Default exists under the Loan Documents and that the transferee and Mortgagor are in compliance with clauses (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) above, which certificate shall attach written notice to Mortgagee of all of the material provisions of such transfer including, without limitation, the proposed date of such transfer, and the name and address of the proposed parties to such transfer, their relationship to Paul Cooper, Jeffrey Ravetz and Louis Sheinker and a copy of the transfer documents, a copy of the organizational documents of the entities affected by such transfer, as amended, a revised structure chart showing the ownership interests of each of the Borrowers following such transfer and any other information that Mortgagee may reasonably request.
If any of the representations in such certificate prove to be untrue, the same shall be an Event of Default under each of the Loan Documents;
(vi) Mortgagor shall provide Mortgagee with reasonable evidence that such transfer shall not affect or impair Mortgagees security and rights under the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, the Additional Loan Documents), or other guaranty or undertaking relating to the Secured Obligations, including without limitation, the Guaranty Agreement and the Environmental Indemnity Agreement;
(vii) Paul Cooper, Jeffrey Ravetz and Louis Sheinker, if living, shall remain Guarantors, subject to the provisions of Section 4.32 , and if pursuant to Section 4.32 , any one or more of such Guarantors has been replaced, such replacement Guarantor shall remain a Guarantor subject to the provisions of Section 4.32 ; and
(viii) Mortgagor shall pay for all of Mortgagees costs and expenses associated with such transfer, including without limitation, attorneys fees charged by Mortgagees staff counsel or special counsel, whether or not such transfer is consummated.
Notwithstanding anything to the foregoing, transfers of title or interests (including membership interests) under any trust or will or testament or applicable laws of descent or intestacy shall be permitted so long as the provisions of paragraph (i) of this Section 5.4(b) are satisfied. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, membership interest in Mortgagor may be freely transferred between the Principals, any lineal descendent of any Principals, any spouse of any Principal or any such lineal descendent, and/or one or more of any combination of the foregoing, without Mortgagees consent, (i) provided any of the Principals individually or all of the Principals together continue to be in control and manage each of the Borrowers, and (ii) the Principals, either individually or together, shall maintain a minimum of 5% ownership interest in each of the Borrowers.
5.5 Further Encumbrance of Chattels. Mortgagor will neither create nor permit any lien, security interest or encumbrance against the Chattels or Intangible Personalty or any part thereof or interest therein, other than the liens and security interests created by the Loan Documents, without the prior written consent of Mortgagee, which may be withheld for any reason.
5.6 Assessments Against Property. Unless required by law, Mortgagor will not, without the prior written approval of Mortgagee, which may not be unreasonably withheld, consent to the creation of any so-called special districts, special improvement districts, benefit assessment districts or similar districts, or any other body or entity of any type, or unless required by law, consent to the occurrence of any other event, that would or might result in the imposition of any additional taxes, assessments or other monetary obligations or burdens on the Property, and this provision shall serve as RECORD NOTICE to any such district or districts or any governmental entity under whose authority such district or districts exist or are being formed that, should Mortgagor or any other Person include all or any portion of the Property in such district or districts, whether formed or in the process of formation, without first obtaining Mortgagees express written consent, the rights of Mortgagee in the Property pursuant to this Mortgage or following any foreclosure of this Mortgage, and the rights of any Person to whom Mortgagee might transfer the Property following a foreclosure of this Mortgage, shall be senior and superior to any taxes, charges, fees, assessments or other impositions of any kind or nature whatsoever, or liens (whether statutory, contractual or otherwise) levied or imposed, or to be levied or imposed, upon the Property or any portion thereof as a result of inclusion of the Property in such district or districts.

Mortgagor shall indemnify, protect, defend, and hold Mortgagee harmless from and against any and all losses, liabilities, damages, claims, judgments, costs, and expenses (including, without limitation attorneys fees and costs incurred in the investigation, defense, and settlement of claims and in obtaining any individual ERISA exemption or state administrative exception that may be required, in Mortgagees sole and absolute discretion) that Mortgagee may incur, directly or indirectly, as the result of the breach by Mortgagor of any warranty or representation set forth in Section 3.3(bb) hereof or the breach by Mortgagor of any covenant contained in this Section.

Immediately upon or any time that an Event of Default exists, Mortgagee may exercise any remedy available at law or in equity, including, but not limited to, those listed below and those listed in the other Loan Documents, in such sequence or combination as Mortgagee may determine in Mortgagees sole discretion:
7.1 Performance of Defaulted Obligations. Mortgagee may make any payment or perform any other obligation under the Loan Documents which either Mortgagor or any Guarantor has failed to make or perform, and Mortgagor hereby irrevocably appoints Mortgagee as the true and lawful attorney-in-fact for Mortgagor to make any such payment and perform any such obligation in the name of Mortgagor. All payments made and expenses (including attorneys fees) incurred by Mortgagee in this connection, together with interest thereon at the Default Rate from the date paid or incurred until repaid, will be part of the Secured Obligations and will be immediately due and payable by Mortgagor to Mortgagee. In lieu of advancing Mortgagees own funds for such purposes, Mortgagee may use any funds of Mortgagor which may be in Mortgagees possession, including, but not limited to, insurance or condemnation proceeds and amounts deposited for taxes, insurance premiums or other purposes.
7.2 Specific Performance and Injunctive Relief. Notwithstanding the availability of legal remedies, Mortgagee will be entitled to obtain specific performance, mandatory or prohibitory injunctive relief, or other equitable relief requiring Mortgagor or Guarantors to cure or refrain from repeating any Default.
7.3 Acceleration of Secured Obligations. Mortgagee may, without notice or demand, declare all of the Secured Obligations immediately due and payable in full.
7.4 Suit for Monetary Relief. Subject to the non-recourse provisions of the Note, with or without accelerating the maturity of the Secured Obligations, Mortgagee may sue from time to time for any payment due under any of the Loan Documents, or for money damages resulting from Mortgagors default under any of the Loan Documents.
7.5 Possession of Property. To the extent permitted by law, Mortgagee may enter and take possession of the Property without seeking or obtaining the appointment of a receiver, may employ a managing agent for the Property, and may lease or rent all or any part of the Property, either in Mortgagees name or in the name of Mortgagor, and may collect the rents, issues, and profits of the Property. Any revenues collected by Mortgagee under this Section will be applied first toward payment of all expenses (including attorneys fees) incurred by Mortgagee, together with interest thereon at the Default Rate from the date incurred until repaid, and the balance, if any, will be applied against the Secured Obligations in such order and manner as Mortgagee may elect in its sole discretion.
7.6 Enforcement of Security Interests. Mortgagee may exercise all rights of a secured party under the Code with respect to the Chattels and the Intangible Personalty, including but not limited to taking possession of, holding, and selling the Chattels and enforcing or otherwise realizing upon any accounts and general intangibles. Any requirement for reasonable notice of the time and place of any public sale, or of the time after which any private sale or other disposition is to be made, will be satisfied by Mortgagees giving of such notice to Mortgagor at least five (5) days prior to the time of any public sale or the time after which any private sale or other intended disposition is to be made.
7.7 Foreclosure Against Property.
(a) Mortgagee may:
(i) institute proceedings for the complete foreclosure of this Mortgage, in which case the Property may be sold for cash or credit in one or more parcels, and in such order as Mortgagee shall determine;
(ii) with or without entry and, to the extent permitted, and pursuant to the procedures provided by, applicable law, institute proceedings for the partial foreclosure of this Mortgage for the portion of the Secured Obligations then due and payable, subject to the lien of this Mortgage continuing unimpaired and without loss of priority so as to secure the balance of the Secured Obligations not then due; and
(iii) sell the Property or any part thereof and all estate, claim, demand, right, title and interest of Mortgagor therein, pursuant to power of sale or otherwise, at one or more sales, in whole or in parcels, at such time and place, upon such terms and after such notice thereof as may be required or permitted by law, and in the event of a sale, by foreclosure or otherwise, of less than all of the Property, this Mortgage shall continue as a lien on the remaining portion of the Property.
Any real estate sold pursuant to any writ of execution issued on a judgment obtained by virtue of the Note or this Mortgage, may be sold in one parcel, as an entirety, or in such parcels, and in such manner or order as Mortgagee, in its sole discretion may elect.
(b) All fees, costs and expenses of any kind incurred by Mortgagee in connection with foreclosure of this Mortgage, including, without limitation, the costs of any appraisals of the Property obtained by Mortgagee, the cost of any title reports or abstracts, all costs of any receivership for the Property advanced by Mortgagee, and all attorneys and consultants fees and expenses incurred by Mortgagee, shall constitute a part of the Secured Obligations and may be included as part of the amount owing from Mortgagor to Mortgagee at any foreclosure sale.

Mortgagee and any receiver or custodian of the Property or any part thereof shall be liable to account for only those rents, issues and profits actually received by it.
(d) Mortgagee may adjourn from time to time any sale to be made under or by virtue of this Mortgage by announcement at the time and place appointed for such sale or for such adjourned sale or sales; and, except as otherwise provided by any applicable provision of law, Mortgagee, without further notice or publication, may make such sale at the time and place to which the same shall be so adjourned.
(e) Upon the completion of any sale or sales made by Mortgagee under or by virtue of this Section 7.7 , Mortgagee, or any officer of any court empowered to do so, shall execute and deliver to the accepted purchaser or purchasers a good and sufficient instrument, or good and sufficient instruments, granting, conveying, assigning and transferring all estate, right, title and interest in and to the property and rights sold. Mortgagee is hereby irrevocably appointed the true and lawful attorney-in-fact of Mortgagor (coupled with an interest), in its name and stead, to make all necessary conveyances, assignments, transfers and deliveries of the Property and rights so sold and for that purpose Mortgagee may execute all necessary instruments of conveyance, assignment, transfer and delivery, and may substitute one or more persons or entities with like power, Mortgagor hereby ratifying and confirming all that its said attorney or such substitute or substitutes shall lawfully do by virtue hereof. Nevertheless, Mortgagor, if so requested by Mortgagee, shall ratify and confirm any such sale or sales by executing and delivering to Mortgagee or to such purchaser or purchasers all such instruments as may be advisable, in the judgment of Mortgagee, for such purpose, and as may be designated in such request. Any such sale or sales made under or by virtue of this Section 7.7 , whether made under the power of sale herein granted or under or by virtue of judicial proceedings or of a judgment or decree of foreclosure and sale, shall operate to divest all the estate, right, title, interest, claim and demand whatsoever, whether at law or in equity, of Mortgagor in and to the properties and rights so sold, and shall be a perpetual bar both at law and in equity against Mortgagor and against any and all persons or entities claiming or who may claim the same, or any part thereof, either from, through or under Mortgagor.
(f) Upon sale made under or by virtue of this Section 7.7 (whether made under the power of sale herein granted or under or by virtue of judicial proceedings or of a judgment or decree of foreclosure and sale), Mortgagee may bid for and acquire the Property or any part thereof and in lieu of paying cash therefor may take settlement for the purchase price by crediting upon the Secured Obligations the net sale price after deducting therefrom the expenses of the sale and the costs of the action and any other sums which Mortgagee is authorized to deduct under this Mortgage.
(g) Subject to the provisions of Section 18 of the Note and Section 9.21 of this Mortgage, the obligation of this Mortgage and of the Note shall continue until the Secured Obligations are paid in full notwithstanding any action or actions or partial foreclosure which may be brought to recover any amount or amounts for installments of principals interest, taxes, assessments, water and sewer charges, rents and rates or insurance or other sums or charges due and payable under the provisions of this Mortgage.
(h) No recovery of any judgment by Mortgagee and no levy of an execution under any judgment upon the Property or upon any other property of Mortgagor shall affect in any manner or to any extent, the lien of this Mortgage upon the Property or any part thereof, or any liens, rights, powers or remedies of Mortgagee hereunder, but such liens, rights, powers and remedies of Mortgagee shall continue unimpaired as before, and notwithstanding any statutory rate of interest applicable with respect to judgments, after the entering of execution of any judgment, the Secured Obligations shall bear interest at the Default Rate until the Secured Obligations shall have been paid in full.
(i) In the event of a foreclosure of this Mortgage or the succession by Mortgagee to the interests of Mortgagor hereunder, the purchaser of the Property or such successor shall succeed to all rights of Mortgagor, including any right to proceeds of insurance and to unearned premiums, and in and to all policies or certificates of insurance assigned and delivered to Mortgagee pursuant to this Mortgage.
(j) Any assignee of this Mortgage and the Note shall take the same free and clear of all offsets, counterclaims and defenses of any nature (except for payments actually made) whatsoever which Mortgagor may have against any assignor of this Mortgage and the Note and no such offset, counterclaim or defense (except for payments actually made) shall be interposed or asserted by Mortgagor in any action or proceeding brought by any such assignee upon this Mortgage and/or the Note and any such right to interpose or assert any such offset, counterclaim or defense in any such action or proceeding is hereby expressly waived by Mortgagor.
(k) In any action or proceeding to foreclose this Mortgage, or to recover or collect the Secured Obligations, the provisions of law respecting the recovery of costs, disbursements and allowances shall also be applicable.
(l) Nothing in this Section dealing with foreclosure procedures or specifying particular actions to be taken by Mortgagee shall be deemed to contradict or add to the requirements and procedures now or hereafter specified by New York law, and any such inconsistency shall be resolved in favor of New York law applicable at the time of foreclosure.
7.8 Appointment of Receiver. To the extent permitted by law, Mortgagee shall be entitled, as a matter of absolute right and without regard to the value of any security for the Secured Obligations or the solvency of any person liable therefor, to the appointment of a receiver for the Property upon ex-parte application to any court of competent jurisdiction. Mortgagor waives any right to any hearing or notice of hearing prior to the appointment of a receiver. Such receiver and its agents shall be empowered, but shall not be obligated, to (a) take possession of the Property and any businesses conducted by Mortgagor or any other person thereon and any business assets used In connection therewith, (b) exclude Mortgagor and Mortgagors agents, servants, and employees from the Property, (c) collect the rents, issues, profits, and income therefrom, (d) complete any construction which may be in progress, (e) do such maintenance and make such repairs and alterations as the receiver deems necessary, (f) use all stores of materials, supplies, and maintenance equipment on the Property and replace such items at the expense of the receivership estate, (g) pay all taxes and assessments against the Property and the Chattels, all premiums for insurance thereon, all utility and other operating expenses, and all sums due under any prior or subsequent encumbrance, and (h) generally do anything which Mortgagor could legally do if Mortgagor were in possession of the Property. All expenses incurred by the receiver or its agents shall constitute a part of the Secured Obligations. Any revenues collected by the receiver shall be applied first to the expenses of the receivership, including attorneys fees incurred by the receiver and by Mortgagee, together with interest thereon at the Default Rate from the date incurred until repaid, and the balance shall be applied toward the Secured Obligations in such order or manner as Mortgagee may in its sole discretion elect or in such other manner as the court may direct. Unless sooner terminated with the express consent of Mortgagee, any such receivership will continue until the Secured Obligations have been discharged in full, or until title to the Property has passed after foreclosure sale and all applicable periods of redemption have expired.
7.9 Right to Make Repairs, Improvements. Should any part of the Property come into the possession of Mortgagee, after an Event of Default, Mortgagee may, but shall not be obligated, to use, operate, and/or make repairs, alterations, additions and improvements to the Property for the purpose of preserving it or its value. Mortgagor covenants to promptly reimburse and pay to Mortgagee, at the place where the Note is payable, or at such other place as may be designated by Mortgagee in writing, the amount of all reasonable expenses (including the cost of any insurance, taxes, or other charges) incurred by Mortgagee in connection with its custody, preservation, use or operation of the Property, together with interest thereon from the date incurred by Mortgagee at the Default Rate, and all such expenses, costs, taxes, interest, and other charges shall be a part of the Secured Obligations. It is agreed, however, except to the extent arising out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Mortgagee or its agents, that the risk of accidental loss or damage to the Property is undertaken by Mortgagor and Mortgagee shall have no liability whatsoever for decline in value of the Property, for failure to obtain or maintain insurance, or for failure to determine whether any insurance ever in force is adequate as to amount or as to the risks insured.
7.10 Surrender of Insurance. Mortgagee may surrender the insurance policies maintained pursuant to the terms hereof, or any part thereof, and receive and apply the unearned premiums as a credit on the Secured Obligations and, in connection therewith, Mortgagor hereby appoints Mortgagee (or any officer of Mortgagee), as the true and lawful agent and attorney-in-fact for Mortgagor (with full powers of substitution), which power of attorney shall be deemed to be a power coupled with an interest and therefore irrevocable, to collect such premiums.
7.11 Prima Facie Evidence. Mortgagor agrees that, in any assignments, deeds, bills of sale, notices of sale, or postings, given by Mortgagee, any and all statements of fact or other recitals therein made as to the identity of Mortgagee, or as to the occurrence or existence of any Event of Default, or as to the acceleration of the maturity of the Secured Obligations, or as to the request to sell, posting of notice of sale, notice of sale, time, place, terms and manner of sale and receipt, distribution and application of the money realized therefrom, and without being limited by the foregoing, as to any other act or thing having been duly done by Mortgagee, shall be taken by all courts of law and equity as prima facie evidence that such statements or recitals state facts and are without further question to be so accepted, and Mortgagor does hereby ratify and confirm any and all acts that Mortgagee may lawfully do by virtue hereof.
7.12 Rights to Funds Held Pursuant to the Reserve Agreements. Mortgagee may, in accordance with the Reserve Agreements, apply all or any portion of the funds by Mortgagee or its Servicer pursuant to the Reserve Agreements, or any other reserve or escrow account, to any and all of the Secured Obligations in such order of priority as Mortgagee shall elect in its sole and absolute discretion.
7.13 Remedies Under Other Loan Documents. Mortgagee may exercise any right or remedy provided for in any of the other Loan Documents, including, without limitation, the Additional Loan Documents.
ARTICLE 8
ASSIGNMENT OF LEASES AND RENTS
8.1 Assignment of Leases and Rents. Mortgagor hereby unconditionally and absolutely grants, transfers and assigns unto Mortgagee all Rents now or hereafter due or payable for the occupancy or use of the Property, and all Leases, whether written or oral, with all security therefor, including all guaranties thereof, now or hereafter affecting the Property; reserving unto Mortgagor, however, a license to collect and retain such Rents and all security for the Leases prior to the occurrence of any Event of Default. Such license shall be revocable by Mortgagee without notice to Mortgagor at any time that an Event of Default exists. Mortgagor represents that the Rents and the Leases have not been heretofore sold, assigned, transferred or set over by any instrument now in force and will not at any time during the life of this assignment be sold, assigned, transferred or set over by Mortgagor or by any person or persons whomsoever; and Mortgagor has good right to sell, assign, transfer and set over the same and to grant to and confer upon Mortgagee the rights, interest, powers and authorities herein granted and conferred.
Failure of Mortgagee at any time or from time to time to enforce the assignment of Rents and Leases under this Section shall not in any manner prevent its subsequent enforcement, and Mortgagee is not obligated to collect anything hereunder, but is accountable only for sums actually collected.
8.2 Further Assignments. Mortgagor shall give Mortgagee at any time upon demand any further or additional forms of assignment or transfer of such Rents, Leases and security as may be reasonably requested by Mortgagee, and shall deliver to Mortgagee executed copies of all such Leases and security.
8.3 Application of Rents. Mortgagee shall be entitled to deduct and retain a just and reasonable compensation from monies received hereunder for its services or that of its agents in collecting such monies. Any monies received by Mortgagee hereunder may be applied when received from time to time in payment of any taxes, assessments or other liens affecting the Property regardless of the delinquency, such application to be in such order as Mortgagee may determine. The acceptance of this Mortgage by Mortgagee or the exercise of any rights by it hereunder shall not be, or be construed to be, an affirmation by it of any Lease nor an assumption of any liability under any Lease.
8.4 Collection of Rents. Upon or at any time that an Event of Default exists, Mortgagee may declare all sums secured hereby immediately due and payable, and may, at its option, without notice, and whether or not the Secured Obligations shall have been declared due and payable, either in person or by agent, with or without bringing any action or proceeding, or by a receiver to be appointed by a court, (a) enter upon, take possession of, manage and operate the Property, or any part thereof (including without limitation making necessary repairs, alterations and improvements to the Property); (b) make, cancel, enforce or modify Leases (and any guaranties thereof); (c) obtain and evict tenants; (d) fix or modify Rents; (e) do any acts which Mortgagee deems reasonably proper to protect the security thereof and (f) either with or without taking possession of the Property, in its own name sue for or otherwise collect and receive such Rents, including those past due and unpaid. In connection with the foregoing, Mortgagee shall be entitled and empowered to employ attorneys, and management, rental and other agents in and about the Property and to effect the matters which Mortgagee is empowered to do, and in the event Mortgagee shall itself effect such matters, Mortgagee shall be entitled to charge and receive reasonable management, rental and other fees therefor as may be customary in the area in which the Property is located; and the reasonable fees, charges, costs and expenses of Mortgagee or such persons shall be additional Secured Obligations. Mortgagee may apply all funds collected as aforesaid, less costs and expenses of operation and collection, including reasonable attorneys and agents fees, charges, costs and expenses, as aforesaid, upon any Secured Obligations, and in such order as Mortgagee may determine. The entering upon and taking possession of the Property, the collection of such Rents and the application thereof as aforesaid shall not cure or waive any default or waive, modify or affect notice of default under the Note or this Mortgage or invalidate any act done pursuant to such notice.
8.5 Authority of Mortgagee. Any tenants or occupants of any part of the Property are hereby authorized to recognize the claims of Mortgagee hereunder without investigating the reason for any action taken by Mortgagee, or the validity or the amount of Secured Obligations owing to Mortgagee, or the existence of any default in the Note or this Mortgage, or under or by reason of this assignment of Rents and Leases, or the application to be made by Mortgagee of any amounts to be paid to Mortgagee. The sole signature of Mortgagee shall be sufficient for the exercise of any rights under this assignment and the sole receipt of Mortgagee for any sums received shall be a full discharge and release therefor to any such tenant or occupant of the Property. Checks for all or any part of the rentals collected under this assignment of Rents and Leases shall be drawn to the exclusive order of Mortgagee.
8.6 Indemnification of Mortgagee. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to obligate Mortgagee to perform or discharge any obligation, duty or liability of any lessor under any Lease of the Property, and Mortgagor shall and does hereby indemnify and hold Mortgagee harmless from any and all liability, loss or damage which Mortgagee may or might incur under any Lease or by reason of the assignment; and any and all such liability, loss or damage incurred by Mortgagee, together with the costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys fees, incurred by Mortgagee in defense of any claims or demands therefor (whether successful or not), shall be additional Secured Obligations, and Mortgagor shall reimburse Mortgagee therefor on demand.
ARTICLE 9
MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS
9.1 Time of the Essence. Time is of the essence with respect to all provisions of the Loan Documents.
9.2 Joint and Several Obligations. If Mortgagor is more than one person or entity, then: (a) all Persons comprising Mortgagor are jointly and severally liable for all of the Secured Obligations; (b) all representations, warranties, and covenants made by Mortgagor shall be deemed representations, warranties, and covenants of each of the Persons comprising Mortgagor; (c) any breach, Default or Event of Default by any of the Persons comprising Mortgagor hereunder shall be deemed to be a breach, Default, or Event of Default of Mortgagor; (d) any reference herein contained to the knowledge or awareness of Mortgagor shall mean the actual or constructive knowledge or awareness of the Guarantors; and (e) any event creating personal liability of any of the Persons comprising Mortgagor shall create personal liability for all such Persons.
9.3 Waiver of Homestead and Other Exemptions. To the extent permitted by law, Mortgagor hereby waives all rights to any homestead or other exemption to which Mortgagor would otherwise be entitled under any present or future constitutional, statutory, or other provision of applicable state or federal law. Mortgagor hereby waives any right it may have to require Mortgagee to marshal all or any portion of the security for the Secured Obligations, Notwithstanding the existence of interests in the Property, Chattels or Intangible Personalty other than that created by this Mortgage, and notwithstanding any other provision of this Mortgage, upon an Event of Default, to the extent permitted by applicable law, Mortgagee shall have the right, in Mortgagees sole discretion, to determine the order in which the Property, Chattels or Intangible Personalty shall be subjected to the remedies provided in this Mortgage and to determine the order in which all or any part of the Indebtedness secured by this Mortgage is satisfied from the proceeds realized upon the exercise of the remedies provided in this Mortgage.
9.4 Non Recourse; Exceptions to Non-Recourse. Except as expressly set forth in Section 18 of the Note and Section 9.21 of this Mortgage, the recourse of Mortgagee with respect to the obligations evidenced by the Note, this Mortgage and the other Loan Documents (except for the Guaranty and the Environmental Indemnity Agreement) shall be solely to the Property, Chattels and Intangible Personalty, and any other collateral given as security for the Note.
9.5 Rights and Remedies Cumulative. Mortgagees rights and remedies under each of the Loan Documents are cumulative of the rights and remedies available to Mortgagee under each of the other Loan Documents and those otherwise available to Mortgagee at law or in equity. No act of Mortgagee shall be construed as an election to proceed under any particular provision of any Loan Document to the exclusion of any other provision in the same or any other Loan Document, or as an election of remedies to the exclusion of any other remedy which may then or thereafter be available to Mortgagee.
9.6 No Implied Waivers. Mortgagee shall not be deemed to have waived any provision of any Loan Document unless such waiver is in writing and is signed by Mortgagee. Without limiting the generality of the preceding sentence, neither Mortgagees acceptance of any payment with knowledge of a Default by Mortgagor, nor any failure by Mortgagee to exercise any remedy following a Default by Mortgagor shall be deemed a waiver of such Default, and no waiver by Mortgagee of any particular Default on the part of Mortgagor shall be deemed a waiver of any other Default or of any similar Default in the future.
9.7 No Third Party Rights. No person shall be a third party beneficiary of any provision of any of the Loan Documents. All provisions of the Loan Documents favoring Mortgagee are intended solely for the benefit of Mortgagee, and no third party shall be entitled to assume or expect that Mortgagee will not waive or consent to modification of any such provision in Mortgagees sole discretion.
9.8 Preservation of Liability and Priority. Without affecting the liability of Mortgagor or of any other person (except a person expressly released in writing) for payment and performance of all of the Secured Obligations, and without affecting the rights of Mortgagee with respect to any security not expressly released in writing, and without impairing in any way the priority of this Mortgage over the interests of any person acquired or first evidenced by recording subsequent to the recording hereof, Mortgagee may, either before or after the maturity of the Note, and without notice or consent: (a) release any person liable for payment or performance of all or any part of the Secured Obligations; (b) make any agreement altering the terms of payment or performance of all or any of the Secured Obligations; (c) exercise or refrain from exercising, or waive, any right or remedy which Mortgagee may have under any of the Loan Documents; (d) accept additional security of any kind for any of the Secured Obligations; or (e) release or otherwise deal with any real or personal property securing the Secured Obligations.
Any person acquiring or recording evidence of any interest of any nature in the Property, the Chattels, or the Intangible Personalty shall be deemed, by acquiring such interest or recording any evidence thereof; to have agreed and consented to any or all such actions by Mortgagee.
9.9 Subrogation of Mortgagee. Mortgagee shall be subrogated to the lien of any previous encumbrance discharged with funds advanced by Mortgagee under the Loan Documents, regardless of whether such previous encumbrance has been released of record.
9.10 Notices. Any notice, consent or approval required or permitted to be given by Mortgagor or Mortgagee under this Mortgage shall be in writing and will be deemed given (a) upon personal delivery, (b) on the first Business Day after receipted delivery to a courier service which guarantees next-business-day delivery, or (c) on the third Business Day after mailing, by registered or certified United States mail, postage prepaid, in any case to the appropriate party at its address set forth below:

Attention: Andrew L. Jagoda, Esq.
Either party may change such partys address for notices or copies of notices by giving notice to the other party in accordance with this Section.
9.11 Defeasance. Upon payment and performance in full of all of the Secured Obligations, Mortgagee will, at the sole cost and expense of Mortgagor, execute and deliver to Mortgagor such documents as may be required to release this Mortgage of record or in accordance with Section 10.8 hereof, to assign this Mortgage as directed by Mortgagor.
9.12 Illegality. If any provision of this Mortgage is held to be illegal, invalid, or unenforceable under present or future laws effective during the term of this Mortgage, the legality, validity, and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Mortgage shall not be affected thereby, and in lieu of each such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision there shall be added automatically as a part of this Mortgage a provision as similar in terms to such illegal, invalid, or unenforceable provision as may be possible and be legal, valid, and enforceable. If the rights and liens created by this Mortgage shall be invalid or unenforceable as to any part of the Secured Obligations, then the unsecured portion of the Secured Obligations shall be completely paid prior to the payment of the remaining and secured portion of the Secured Obligations, and all payments made on the Secured Obligations shall be considered to have been paid on and applied first to the complete payment of the unsecured portion of the Secured Obligations.
9.13 Usury Savings Clause. It is expressly stipulated and agreed to be the intent of Mortgagee and Mortgagor at all times to comply with the applicable law governing the highest lawful interest rate. If the applicable law is ever judicially interpreted so as to render usurious any amount called for under the Note or under any of the other Loan Documents, or contracted for, charged, taken, reserved or received with respect to the loan evidenced thereby, or if acceleration of the maturity of the Note, any prepayment by Mortgagor, or any other circumstance whatsoever, results in Mortgagor having paid any interest in excess of that permitted by applicable law, then it is the express intent of Mortgagor and Mortgagee that all excess amounts theretofore collected by Mortgagee be credited on the principal balance of the Note (or, at Mortgagees option, paid over to Mortgagor), and the provisions of the Note and other Loan Documents immediately be deemed reformed and the amounts thereafter collectible hereunder and thereunder reduced, without the necessity of the execution of any new document, so as to comply with the applicable law, but so as to permit the recovery of the fullest amount otherwise called for hereunder and thereunder. The right to accelerate maturity of the Note does not include the right to accelerate any interest which has not otherwise accrued on the date of such acceleration, and Mortgagee does not intend to collect any unearned interest in the event of acceleration. All sums paid or agreed to be paid to Mortgagee for the use, forbearance or detention of the Secured Obligations evidenced hereby or by the Note shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread throughout the full term of such Secured Obligations until payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of such Secured Obligations does not exceed the maximum rate or amount of interest permitted under applicable law. The term applicable law as used herein shall mean any federal or state law applicable to the loan made by Mortgagee to Mortgagor evidenced by the Note.
9.14 Obligations Binding Upon Mortgagors Successors. This Mortgage is binding upon Mortgagor and Mortgagors successors and assigns, and shall inure to the benefit of Mortgagee, and its successors and assigns, and the provisions hereof shall likewise be covenants running with the land. The duties, covenants, conditions, obligations, and warranties of Mortgagor in this Mortgage shall be joint and several obligations of Mortgagor and Mortgagors successors and assigns.
9.15 Construction. All pronouns and any variations of pronouns herein shall be deemed to refer to the masculine, feminine, or neuter, singular or plural, as the identity of the parties may require. Whenever the terms herein are singular, the same shall be deemed to mean the plural, as the identity of the parties or the context requires. The term including shall mean including, without limitation. Each party hereto acknowledges that each party hereto and its respective counsel reviewed and revised this Mortgage and the other Loan Documents, and each party hereto agrees that any rule of construction to the effect that ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting party shall not apply in the interpretation of this Mortgage and the other Loan Documents.
9.16 Attorneys Fees. Any reference in this Mortgage to attorneys or counsel fees paid or incurred by Mortgagee shall be deemed to include paralegals fees and legal assistants fees. Moreover, wherever provision is made herein for payment of attorneys or counsels fees or expenses incurred by Mortgagee, such provision shall include but not be limited to, such fees or expenses incurred in any and all judicial, bankruptcy, reorganization, administrative, or other proceedings, including appellate proceedings, whether such fees or expenses arise before proceedings are commenced, during such proceedings or after entry of a final judgment.
9.17 Waiver and Agreement Regarding Prepayment.
(a) EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE EXPRESSLY PERMITTED HEREUNDER OR UNDER THE NOTE, MORTGAGOR HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE UNDER APPLICABLE LAW TO PREPAY THE NOTE, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, WITHOUT PREPAYMENT CHARGE, UPON ACCELERATION OF THE MATURITY DATE OF THE NOTE, AND AGREES THAT, EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE EXPRESSLY PERMITTED HEREUNDER OR UNDER THE NOTE, IF FOR ANY REASON A PREPAYMENT OF ALL OR ANY PART OF THE NOTE IS MADE, WHETHER VOLUNTARILY OR FOLLOWING ANY ACCELERATION OF THE MATURITY DATE OF THE NOTE BY MORTGAGEE ON ACCOUNT OF THE OCCURRENCE OF ANY EVENT OF DEFAULT ARISING FOR ANY REASON, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, AS A RESULT OF ANY PROHIBITED OR RESTRICTED TRANSFER, FURTHER ENCUMBRANCE OR DISPOSITION OF THE PROPERTY OR ANY PART THEREOF SECURING THE NOTE, THEN MORTGAGOR SHALL BE OBLIGATED TO PAY, CONCURRENTLY WITH SUCH PREPAYMENT, THE PREPAYMENT PREMIUM PROVIDED FOR IN THE NOTE (OR, IN THE EVENT OF ACCELERATION WHEN THE NOTE IS CLOSED TO PREPAYMENT, AS PROVIDED IN THE DEFINITION OF SECURED OBLIGATIONS SET FORTH IN ARTICLE 1 HEREOF). MORTGAGOR HEREBY DECLARES THAT MORTGAGEES AGREEMENT TO MAKE THE LOAN EVIDENCED BY THE NOTE AT THE INTEREST RATE AND FOR THE TERM SET FORTH IN THE NOTE CONSTITUTES ADEQUATE CONSIDERATION, GIVEN INDIVIDUAL WEIGHT BY MORTGAGOR, FOR THIS WAIVER AND AGREEMENT.
(b) If the maturity of the Note secured by this Mortgage is accelerated, Mortgagor shall pay a prepayment premium in an amount equal to any prepayment premium which would be payable under the terms of the Note as if the Note were prepaid in full on the date of the acceleration. If under the terms of the Note no voluntary prepayment would be permissible on the date of such acceleration, then the prepayment fee or premium shall be equal to one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the highest prepayment fee or premium set forth in the Note, calculated as of the date of such acceleration as if prepayment were permitted on such date.
9.18 Waiver of Jury Trial. MORTGAGEE AND MORTGAGOR KNOWINGLY, IRREVOCABLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT EITHER MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM BASED ON THIS MORTGAGE, OR ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS MORTGAGE OR ANY LOAN DOCUMENT, OR ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT, COURSE OF DEALING, STATEMENT (WHETHER VERBAL OR WRITTEN) OR ACTIONS OF ANY PARTY HERETO OR TO ANY LOAN DOCUMENT. THIS PROVISION IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR MORTGAGEE AND MORTGAGOR TO ENTER INTO THE LOAN TRANSACTION EVIDENCED BY THE NOTE.
9.19 Governing Laws; Forum.
(a) The substantive laws of the State of New York shall govern the validity, construction, enforcement and interpretation of this Mortgage.
(b) Any legal suit, action or proceeding against Mortgagee or Mortgagor arising out of or relating to this Mortgage may at Mortgagees option be instituted in any federal or state court serving the City of Port Chester or the County of Westchester, State of New York and Mortgagor waives any objections which it may now or hereafter have based on venue and/or forum non conveniens of any such suit, action or proceeding, and Mortgagor hereby irrevocably submits to the jurisdiction of any such court in any suit, action or proceeding.
9.20 Entire Agreement. This Mortgage, together with the other Loan Documents, contains the entire understanding between the parties to the matters addressed herein, and may not be changed, amended, modified or waived except pursuant to a written agreement executed by the parties, and supersedes any other understandings or agreements with respect to the matters covered hereby.
9.21 Limitation on Liability. The provisions of Section 18(a) and Section 18(b) of the Note are incorporated herein by reference.
9.22 Claims Against Mortgagee. Mortgagee shall not be in default under this Mortgage, or under any of the other Loan Documents, unless a written notice specifically setting forth the claim of Mortgagor shall have been given to Mortgagee within three (3) months after Mortgagor first had knowledge of the occurrence of the event that Mortgagor alleges gave rise to such claim and Mortgagee does not remedy or cure the default, if any there be, promptly thereafter. Mortgagor waives any claim, set-off or defense against Mortgagee arising by reason of any alleged default by Mortgagee as to which Mortgagor does not give such notice timely as aforesaid.
Mortgagor acknowledges that such waiver is or may be essential to Mortgagees ability to enforce Mortgagees remedies without delay and that such waiver therefore constitutes a substantial part of the bargain between Mortgagee and Mortgagor with respect to the Loan.
9.23 Acceptance of Cures for Events of Default. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Mortgage or the other Loan Documents, Mortgagee shall in no event or under any circumstance be obligated or required to accept a cure by Mortgagor or by any other person of an Event of Default unless Mortgagee agrees to do so in the exercise of its sole and absolute discretion, it being agreed that once an Event of Default has occurred, Mortgagee shall be absolutely and unconditionally entitled to pursue all rights and remedies available to it under the Loan Documents or otherwise at law or in equity.
ARTICLE 10
NEW YORK PROVISIONS
10.1 Lien Law. Mortgagor will receive the advances secured hereby and will hold the right to receive such advances as a trust fund to be applied first for the purpose of paying the costs of improvements on the Property and will apply the same first to the payment of such costs before using any part of the total of the same for any other purpose and will comply with Section 13 of the New York Lien Law. Mortgagor will indemnify and hold Mortgagee harmless against any loss or liability, cost or expense, including, without limitation, any judgments, attorneys fees, costs of appeal bonds and printing costs, arising out of or relating to any proceeding instituted by any claimant alleging a violation by Mortgagor of any applicable lien law including, without limitation, any section of Article 3-A of the New York Lien Law.
10.2 Statutory Construction. The provisions of this Mortgage that are construed by Section 254 of the Real Property Law of the State of New York shall be construed as provided in such Section 254, except as provided in Section 10.6 below. The additional provisions contained in this Mortgage shall afford rights supplemental to and not exclusive of the rights conferred by such Section 254 and shall not impair, modify, alter or defeat such rights (except as provided in Section 10.6 below), notwithstanding that such additional provisions may relate to the same subject matter or provide for different or additional rights in the same or similar contingencies as the provisions construed by Section 254. The rights of Mortgagee arising under the provisions of this Mortgage shall be separate, distinct and cumulative and none of them shall be in exclusion of the others. No act of Mortgagee shall be construed as an election to proceed under any one provision herein to the exclusion of any other provision, anything herein or otherwise to the contrary notwithstanding. In the event of any inconsistencies between the provisions of this Mortgage and the provisions of such Section 254, the provisions of this Mortgage shall prevail.
10.3 Maximum Amount Secured. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Mortgage, the maximum amount of the principal indebtedness secured by this Mortgage or which under any contingency may become secured by this Mortgage is $4,639,600.00, plus all interest, additional interest, late payment and prepayment charges in respect thereof plus all amounts expended by Mortgagee following a default hereunder in respect of (i) taxes, charges or assessments which may be imposed by law upon the Premises, (ii) premiums on insurance policies covering the Property, (iii) expenses incurred in upholding the lien of this Mortgage, including, but not limited to, the costs and expenses of any litigation to collect the indebtedness secured by this Mortgage or to prosecute, defend, protect or preserve the rights and the 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.
10.4 Sale of Mortgaged Property/Non-Judicial Foreclosure.
(a) If this Mortgage is foreclosed, the Property, or any interest therein, may, at the discretion of Mortgagee, be sold in one or more parcels or in several interests or portions and in any order or manner.
(b) Upon an Event of Default that entitles Mortgagee to exercise remedies against Mortgagor hereunder, Mortgagee, to the extent permitted by law, may choose to commence a non-judicial foreclosure by power of sale of this Mortgage.
10.5 Commercial Property. Mortgagor represents that this Mortgage does not encumber real property principally improved or to be improved by one or more structures containing in the aggregate not more than six residential dwelling units, each having its own separate cooking facilities.
10.6 Insurance. The provisions of Section 254 of the New York Real Property Law covering insurance of buildings against loss by fire shall not apply to this Mortgage. In the event of any conflict, inconsistency or ambiguity between the provisions of Section 4.5 hereof and the provisions of Section 254 of the New York Real Property Law covering the insurance of buildings against loss by fire, the provisions of Section 4.5 shall control.
10.7 Leases. Mortgagee shall have all of the rights against lessees and tenants of the Property set forth in Section 291-f of the New York Real Property Law.
10.8 Assignment of Mortgage. At Mortgagors request and at the sole cost and expense of Mortgagor for the out-of-pocket expenses of Mortgagee, Mortgagee shall deliver an Assignment of Mortgage (rather than a Satisfaction of Mortgage), without representation, recourse or warranty, upon payment and satisfaction of all of the Secured Obligations.
10.9 Mortgage Tax Obligation and Indemnification. Mortgagor shall pay when due, and as a condition to any advance of funds under the Loan Documents, all taxes, mortgage recording taxes, recording charges and other amounts payable in connection with this Mortgage, the Note or the other Loan Documents. Mortgagor shall, at its sole cost and expense, protect, defend, indemnify and release and hold harmless Mortgagee from and against any and all losses, costs, expenses, liabilities, claims and obligations imposed upon or incurred by or asserted against Mortgagee, and directly or indirectly arising out of or in any way relating to any tax, mortgage recording tax, recording charge or other amount due or payable on the making, recording, or advance of funds under this Mortgage, the Note or the other Loan Documents.
10.10 Transfer Tax Obligation and Indemnification: (i) In the event of any sale or transfer of the Property, or any part thereof, including, without limitation, any sale or transfer by reason of foreclosure of this Mortgage or any subordinate mortgage (but this Section shall not be deemed to permit any such subordinate mortgage) or by deed in lieu of any such foreclosure, Mortgagor shall timely and duly complete, execute and deliver to Mortgagee all forms and supporting documentation required by any taxing authority to estimate and fix any tax payable by reason of such sale or transfer or recording of the deed evidencing such sale or transfer, including, without limitation, any New York State Real Estate Transfer Tax payable pursuant to Article 31 of the New York Tax Law and New York City Real Property Transfer Tax payable pursuant to Chapter 21, Title 11 of the New York City Administrative Code (individually, a Transfer Tax and collectively, the Transfer Taxes).
(ii) Mortgagor shall pay the Transfer Taxes that may hereafter become due and payable with respect to any sale or transfer of the Property described in this Section, and in default of such payment, Mortgagee may, but shall not be obligated to, pay the same and the amount of such payment shall be added to the Secured Obligations secured hereby and, unless incurred in connection with a foreclosure of this Mortgage or deed in lieu of such foreclosure, shall be secured by this Mortgage.
(iii) Mortgagor hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints Mortgagee as its attorney-in-fact, coupled with an interest, to prepare and deliver any questionnaire, statement, affidavit or tax return in connection with any Transfer Tax applicable to any foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure described in this Section.
(iv) Mortgagor shall indemnify and hold harmless Mortgagee against (i) any and all liability incurred by Mortgagee for the payment of any Transfer Tax with respect to any transfer of the Property by reason of foreclosure, and (ii) any and all expenses incurred by Mortgagee in connection therewith, including, without limitation, interest, penalties and attorneys fees.
(v) In the event that Mortgagor fails or refuses to pay a tax payable by Mortgagor with respect to a sale of transfer by reason of a foreclosure of this Mortgage in accordance with this Section, the amount of the tax, any interest or penalty applicable thereto and any other amount payable pursuant to Mortgagors obligation to indemnify Mortgagee under this Section may, at the sole option of Mortgagee, be paid as an expense of the sale out of the proceeds of the mortgage foreclosure sale.
(vi) The provisions of this Section shall survive any transfer and the delivery of the deed affecting such transfer. Nothing in this Section shall be deemed to grant to Mortgagor any greater rights to sell, assign or otherwise transfer the Property than are expressly provided in Section 5.4 nor to deprive Mortgagee of any right to refuse to consent to any transaction referred to in this Section.

ASSIGNMENT OF LEASES AND RENTS
THIS ASSIGNMENT Of LEASES AND RENTS (this Assignment ) is given as of March 8, 2011, by WU/LH 8 SLATER L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company ( Assignor ), to FIRST SUNAMERICA LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY, a New York corporation ( Assignee ).
RECITALS
A. Assignor is the owner of the real property described in Exhibit A attached hereto. Such real property, together with all improvements now or hereafter located thereon and all appurtenances thereto, is referred to as the Property.
B. Assignor executed a Consolidated, Amended and Restated Promissory Note, of even date herewith, made to the order of Assignee, as the same may be modified, extended, renewed, rearranged or replaced from time to time (the Note ), in the aggregate principal amount of $4,639,600.00 (the Loan ). The Note is secured by, among other things, a Mortgage, Consolidation, Extension, Spreader and Security Agreement, Fixture Filing, Financing Statement and Assignment of Leases and Rents, of even date herewith, granted by Assignor for the benefit of Assignee, as the same may be amended, supplemented, restated or replaced from time to time (the Mortgage ), encumbering the Property recorded simultaneously herewith in control #510843442.
C. The Note, the Mortgage, this Assignment, all other documents evidencing and/or securing the Loan, and the Additional Loan Documents (as such term is defined in the Mortgage), in each case, as the same may be amended, modified or supplemented from time to time, are referred to collectively as the Loan Documents .
ASSIGNMENT
NOW, THEREFORE, to induce Assignee to make the Loan, as a partial source of repayment of the Loan and as additional security for the payment and performance of all obligations of Assignor to Assignee evidenced by or referred to in the Loan Documents, whether now existing or subsequently incurred, Assignor hereby undertakes and agrees as follows:
1. Definitions. Any initially capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the same meaning in this Assignment as ascribed to such term in the Mortgage.
2. Assignment of Leases and Rents. Assignor hereby unconditionally, presently, absolutely and irrevocably grants, transfers and assigns unto Assignee all rents, royalties, issues, profits and income ( Rents ) now or hereafter due or payable to Assignor for the occupancy or use of the Property, and all leases, subleases and other use and occupancy agreements affecting the Property or any part thereof now existing or hereafter entered into between Assignor (or Assignors predecessor in interest in title to the Property or any part thereof) and tenants of Assignor or such predecessor in interest ( Leases ), whether written or oral, with all security therefor, including all guaranties thereof, now or hereafter affecting the Property.
The aforesaid assignment shall be effective immediately upon Assignors execution of this Assignment and is not conditioned upon the occurrence of an Event of Default or any other contingency or event; provided, however, that Assignee hereby grants to Assignor a license to collect, retain and enjoy such Rents provided that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. Such license shall be revocable by Assignee without notice to Assignor at any time after the occurrence of an Event of Default. Assignor represents that the Rents payable to Assignor and the Leases have not been heretofore sold, assigned, transferred or set over by any instrument now in force and will not at any time during the life of this Assignment be sold, assigned, transferred or set over by Assignor. Assignor has good right to sell, assign, transfer and set over the same and to grant to and confer upon Assignee the rights, interest, powers and authorities herein granted and conferred. Failure of Assignee at any time or from time to time to enforce the assignment of Rents and Leases under this section shall not in any manner prevent its subsequent enforcement, and Assignee is not obligated to collect anything hereunder, but is accountable only for sums actually collected.
3. Further Assignments. Assignor shall give Assignee at any time upon demand any further or additional customary forms of assignment or transfer of such Rents, Leases and security as may be reasonably requested by Assignee, and shall deliver to Assignee executed copies of all such Leases and security.
4. Application of Rents. Assignee shall be entitled to deduct and retain a just and reasonable compensation from monies received hereunder for the services of Assignee or that of the agents of Assignee in collecting such monies. Subject to the provisions of Section 4.4 of the Mortgage, any monies received by Assignee hereunder may be applied when received from time to time in payment of any taxes, assessments or other liens affecting the Property regardless of any delinquency, such application to be in such order as Assignee may determine. The acceptance of this Assignment by Assignee or the exercise of any rights by it hereunder shall not be, or be construed to be, an affirmation by it of any Lease nor an assumption of any liability under any Lease.
5. Collection of Rents. During the existence of any Event of Default, Assignee may declare all sums secured hereby immediately due and payable, and may, at its option, without notice, and whether or not the Secured Obligations shall have been declared due and payable, either in person or by agent, with or without bringing any action or proceeding, or by a receiver to be appointed by a court, (a) enter upon, take possession of, manage and operate the Property, or any part thereof (including, without limitation, making necessary repairs, alterations and improvements to the Property), (b) make, cancel, enforce or modify Leases, (c) obtain and evict tenants, (d) fix or modify Rents, (e) do any acts which Assignee deems reasonably proper to protect the security thereof and (f) either with or without taking possession of the Property, in its own name sue for or otherwise collect and receive such Rents, including those past due and unpaid. In connection with the foregoing, Assignee shall be entitled and empowered to employ attorneys and management, rental and other agents in and about the Property and to effect the matters which Assignee is empowered to do, and in the event Assignee shall itself effect such matters, Assignee shall be entitled to charge and receive reasonable management, rental and other fees therefor as may be customary in the area in which the Property is located, and the reasonable fees, charges, costs and expenses of Assignee or such persons shall be additional Secured Obligations.
Assignee may apply all funds collected as aforesaid, less costs and expenses of operation and collection, including reasonable attorneys and agents fees, charges, costs and expenses, as aforesaid, upon any Secured Obligations, and in such order as Assignee may determine. The entering upon and taking possession of the Property, the collection of such Rents and the application thereof as aforesaid shall not cure or waive any default or waive, modify or affect notice of default under the Note or this Assignment or invalidate any act done pursuant to such notice.
6. Authority of Assignee. Any tenants or occupants of any part of the Property are hereby authorized to recognize the claims of Assignee hereunder without investigating (a) the reason for any action taken by Assignee, (b) the validity or the amount of secured obligations owing to Assignee, (c) the existence of any default in the Note or this Assignment, or under or by reason of this Assignment or (d) the application to be made by Assignee of any amounts to be paid to Assignee. The sole signature of Assignee shall be sufficient for the exercise of any rights under this Assignment and the receipt signed solely by Assignee for any sums received shall be a full discharge and release therefor to any such tenant or occupant of the Property. Checks for all or any part of the rentals collected under this Assignment shall be drawn to the exclusive order of Assignee.
7. Indemnification of Assignee. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to obligate Assignee to perform or discharge any obligation, duty or liability of any lessor under any Lease of the Property, and Assignor shall and does hereby indemnify and hold Assignee harmless from any and all liability, loss or damage which Assignee may or might incur under any Lease or by reason of this Assignment, excluding, however, any such matter resulting from Assignees gross negligence or willful misconduct. Any and all such liability, loss or damage incurred by Assignee, together with the costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys fees, incurred by Assignee in defense of any claims or demands therefor (whether successful or not), shall be additional Secured Obligations, and Assignor shall reimburse Assignee therefor on demand.
8. Cross-Default Clause. Any default by Assignor in the performance or observance of any covenant or condition hereof, and the continuance thereof after any notice and cure period, shall be deemed an Event of Default under the Mortgage and each of the other Loan Documents (including, without limitation, the Additional Loan Documents), entitling Assignee to exercise all or any remedies available to Assignee under the terms of the Mortgage and any or all of the other Loan Documents (including, without limitation, the Additional Loan Documents), and any Event of Default under the Mortgage and any of the other Loan Documents (including, without limitation, the Additional Loan Documents) shall be deemed a default hereunder, entitling Assignee to exercise any or all remedies provided for herein. Failure by Assignee to exercise any right which it may have hereunder shall not be deemed a waiver thereof unless so agreed in writing by Assignee, and the waiver by Assignee of any such default by Assignor hereunder shall not constitute a continuing waiver or a waiver of any other default or of the same default on any future occasion.
9. Reassignment by Assignee. Assignee may assign all or part of Assignors right, title and interest in any or all Leases (to the extent of the interests therein conferred upon Assignee by the terms hereof) to any subsequent holder, owner, co-owner or participant, of or in the Note or other Loan Documents, or to any person who acquires title to the Property through foreclosure or otherwise. From and after the acquisition of title to the Property by any person, through foreclosure or conveyance in lieu of foreclosure, no assignee of Assignors interest in any Lease shall be liable to account to Assignor for the rents, income and profits thereafter accruing. The recording of any valid release of the Mortgage shall operate as a release of this Assignment in favor of the then owner of the Property; provided , that the recording of any valid partial release of the Mortgage shall operate as a release hereof only with respect to that portion of the Property thereby released from the Mortgage, the term Property as used herein being deemed thereafter to refer only to that portion of the Property remaining encumbered by the Mortgage and the term Assignor as used herein being deemed thereafter to refer only to the owner or owners of such remaining portion of the Property; and provided further , that the affidavit of any officer of Assignee stating that any part of the indebtedness secured hereby remains unpaid shall constitute conclusive evidence of the validity, effectiveness and continuing force of this Assignment, and any person may and is hereby authorized to rely upon such affidavit.
10. Rights and Remedies. All rights and remedies set forth in this Assignment and in the other Loan Documents are cumulative, and the holder of the Note and of every other obligation secured hereby may recover judgment thereon, issue execution therefor and resort to every other right or remedy available at law or in equity without first exhausting, and without affecting or impairing the security of, any right or remedy afforded hereby. Unless expressly provided in this Assignment to the contrary, no consent or waiver, whether express or implied, by any interested party referred to herein regarding any breach or default by any other interested party referred to herein, in the performance by such other party of any obligations contained herein shall be deemed a consent to, or waiver by the party of, the performance by such other party of any other obligations hereunder or the performance by any other interested party referred to herein of the same, or of any other obligations hereunder.
11. Interpretation. If any provision of this Assignment or any paragraph, sentence, clause, phrase or word, or the application thereof, is held invalid in any circumstance, the validity of the remainder of this Assignment shall be construed as if such invalid part were never included herein.
12. Successors and Assigns. This Assignment and all provisions hereof shall be binding upon Assignor, its successors and assigns, and all other persons or entities claiming under or through Assignor and the word Assignor, when used herein, shall include all such persons and entities and any others liable for the payment of the indebtedness secured hereby or any part thereof, whether or not they have executed the Note or this Assignment. The word Assignee, when used herein shall include Lenders successors and assigns, including all other holders, from time to time, of the Note. This Assignment shall run with the land constituting the Property.
13. Binding Effect. The provisions of this Assignment shall bind and benefit the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns.
14. Notices. Notices under this Assignment shall be given in the manner set forth in Section 9.10 of the Mortgage.
15. Governing Law. This Assignment shall be construed and enforced according to the laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to conflict of laws principles.
16. Conflict with Mortgage. In the event of any conflict between the terms hereof and the terms of the Mortgage, the Mortgage shall control and be binding.
17. Non-Recourse. Assignors obligations hereunder are subject to and limited by Section 18 of the Note and Sections 9.4 and 9.21 of the Mortgage.
18. Termination. Upon payment and performance in full of all of the Secured Obligations, Assignee will, at the sole cost and expense of Assignor, execute and deliver to Assignor such documents as may be required to release this Assignment of record.
19. Acceptance of Cures for Events of Default. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Assignment or the other Loan Documents, Assignee shall in no event or under any circumstance be obligated or required to accept a cure by Assignor or by any other person of an Event of Default unless Assignee agrees to do so in the exercise of its sole and absolute discretion, it being agreed that once an Event of Default has occurred, Assignee shall be absolutely and unconditionally entitled to pursue all rights and remedies available to it under the Loan Documents or otherwise at law or in equity.

Except as expressly hereinafter set forth, the recourse of Holder with respect to the obligations evidenced by this Note, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents (except for the Guaranty and the Environmental Indemnity Agreement) shall be solely to the Property, Chattels and Intangible Personalty (as such terms are defined in the Mortgage). Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary contained in this Note, the Mortgage or in any other Loan Document, nothing shall be deemed in any way to impair, limit or prejudice the rights of Holder to collect or recover from Maker (but not any member, manager, officer, director or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing, with the exclusion of the Guarantors) and Guarantors: (i) damages or costs (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys fees) incurred by Holder as a result of any intentional waste by Maker; (ii) any condemnation award or insurance proceeds attributable to the Property which were not paid to Holder or used to restore the Property in accordance with the terms of the Mortgage; (iii) any Rents, profits, security deposits, advances, rebates, prepaid rents or other similar sums attributable to the Property collected by or for Maker (x) following an Event of Default under any Loan Document and

For the avoidance of doubt, the matters set forth in this paragraph (a) shall be fully recourse to Maker (but not any member, manager, officer, director or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing, with the exclusion of the Guarantors) and Guarantor. For the purposes of this Section 18(a) , the Termination Date is, in respect of the Property, the earliest of (x) the date that Maker tenders to Holder or Holders designee a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure in respect of the Property, subject to no title exceptions other than real estate taxes and assessments, the Permitted Exceptions (as defined in the applicable Mortgage) and such additional exceptions approved by Holder pursuant to the Loan Documents or which are otherwise acceptable to Holder in its reasonable discretion, together with such ancillary conveyances, releases and other documentation that are customarily delivered in connection with a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure transaction, all in form reasonably satisfactory to Holder, and such deed-in-lieu of foreclosure is accepted by Holder in its sole discretion (y) the date that Maker tenders to Holder a stipulation to entry of judgment of foreclosure in respect of the Property, and (z) the date Holder, any Affiliate of Holder, or any other party takes title to the Property in connection with a foreclosure of the applicable Mortgage that encumbers the Property. If Maker elects to deliver a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure in respect of the Property, Holder shall retain the right
to determine whether to accept such deed-in-lieu of foreclosure or to proceed with foreclosure proceedings and, upon Holder making such election, Maker shall execute and deliver to Holder an appropriate deed-in-lieu of foreclosure in respect of the Property, as Holder shall have elected; provided, however, that if Holder chooses to proceed with foreclosure proceedings in respect of the Property, the Termination Date shall nonetheless be the earliest of the date specified in clause (x), (y) and (z) above, provided further that if Maker thereafter fails to cooperate with Holder in respect of Holders exercise of any and all remedies available at law or in equity to Holder (including, without limitation, foreclosure), then the Termination Date shall be the earlier of the date specified in clause (y) or (z) above.

foreclosure that is (A) not frivolous and is advanced in good faith and (B) based upon a default by Holder under terms of the Loan Documents, or (v) any execution, amendment, modification, assignment or early termination of any Lease of any Required Tenant made in violation of the Loan Documents.

PROMISSORY NOTE
U.S. $4,096,400 |
March 8, 2011 |
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, and at all times hereafter specified, WU/LH 15 EXECUTIVE L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company ( Maker ), having an address at c/o Lighthouse Real Estate Management LLC, 60 Hempstead Avenue, Suite 718, West Hempstead, New York 11552, promises to pay to the order of FIRST SUNAMERICA LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY, a New York corporation, having an address at 1 SunAmerica Center, Century City, Los Angeles, California 90067-6022 (hereinafter referred to, together with each subsequent holder hereof, as Holder ), or at such other address as may be designated from time to time hereafter by any Holder, the principal sum of FOUR MILLION NINETY-SIX THOUSAND FOUR HUNDRED AND NO/100THS DOLLARS ($4,096,400), together with interest on the principal balance outstanding from time to time, as hereinafter provided, in lawful money of the United States of America.
By its execution and delivery of this promissory note (this Note ), Maker covenants and agrees as follows:
1. Interest Rate and Payments .
(a) The balance of principal outstanding from time to time under this Note shall bear interest at the rate of five and seventy-six hundredths percent (5.76%) per annum (the Original Interest Rate ), computed on the basis of a three hundred sixty (360) day year composed of twelve (12) months of thirty (30) days each; however, interest for partial months shall be calculated by multiplying the principal balance of this Note by the applicable interest rate (i.e., the Original Interest Rate or the New Rate (hereinafter defined)), dividing the product by three hundred sixty (360), and multiplying that result by the actual number of days elapsed.
(b) Interest only on this Note shall be payable on the date the loan evidenced by this Note (the Loan ) is funded by Holder, in advance, for the period from and including the date hereof through and including March 31, 2011.
(c) Commencing on May 1, 2011 and on the first day of each month thereafter through and including April 1, 2012, (each such date a Interest Only Payment Date ) payments of interest only shall be payable, in arrears, in the amount of $19,662.72.
(d) Commencing on May 1, 2012 and on the first day of each month thereafter through and including the first day of the month immediately preceding the Maturity Date (each such date a Principal and Interest Payment Date and together with any Interest Only Payment Date, referred to herein, collectively, as a Payment Date ), combined payments of principal and interest shall be payable, in arrears, in the amount of $25,795.47. each (such amount representing an amount that would be sufficient to fully amortize the original principal amount of this Note over a twenty-five (25) year period (the Amortization Period ), if such amortization were based on a three hundred sixty (360) day year composed of twelve (12) months of thirty (30) days each).
(e) The entire outstanding principal balance, and all other amounts due under this Note and the other Loan Documents (as hereinafter defined), together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, shall be due and payable in full on April 1, 2018 (the Maturity Date ).
2. Holders Extension Option; Net Operating Income. The provisions of this Section 2 concern the election of Holder to extend the term of the Loan for the Extension Term (as defined below) and certain obligations of Maker during the Extension Term.
(a) If Maker shall fail to pay the outstanding principal balance of this Note and all accrued interest and other charges due hereon and all other amounts due under the Loan Documents, at the Maturity Date, Holder shall have the right, at Holders sole option and discretion, to extend the term of the Loan for an additional period of five (5) years (the Extension Term ) and require Maker to make additional monthly payments of net operating income as provided herein. If Holder elects to extend the term of the Loan, Maker shall pay all fees of Holder incurred in connection with such extension, including, but not limited to, attorneys fees and title insurance premiums. Maker shall execute all documents reasonably requested by Holder to evidence and secure the Loan, as extended, and shall obtain and provide to Holder any title insurance policy or endorsement requested by Holder. If Holder elects to extend the term of the loan for the Extension Term, no Event of Default shall be deemed to exist solely by reason of the failure by Maker to pay such outstanding principal balance of this Note and all accrued interest and other charges due hereunder, and all other amounts due under the Loan Documents, on the Maturity Date.
(b) Should Holder elect to extend the term of the Loan as provided above, Holder shall: (i) reset the interest rate borne by the then-existing principal balance of the Loan to a rate per annum (the New Rate ) equal to the greater of (A) the Original Interest Rate, or (B) Holders (or comparable lenders, if Holder is no longer making such loans) then-prevailing interest rate for five (5) year loans secured by properties similar to the Property (hereinafter defined), as determined by Holder in its sole discretion; (ii) re-amortize the then-existing principal balance of the Loan over the Amortization Period; (iii) have the right to require Maker to enter into modifications of the non-economic terms of the Loan Documents as Holder may request (the Non-Economic Modifications ); and (iv) notwithstanding any provision set forth in the Loan Documents to the contrary, have the right to require Maker to make monthly payments into escrow for insurance premiums and real property taxes, assessments and similar governmental charges. Hence, monthly principal and interest payments during the Extension Term shall be based upon the New Rate, in an amount that would be sufficient to fully amortize the outstanding principal balance of the Loan over the Amortization Period.
(c) If Holder elects to extend the term of the Loan, Holder shall advise Maker of the New Rate on or prior to the Maturity Date, but in no event shall the term be extended unless Holder is entitled to do so under Section 2(a) above.
(d) In addition to the required monthly payments of principal and interest set forth above, commencing on the first day of the second month following the Maturity Date and continuing on the first day of each month thereafter during the Extension Term (each an Additional Payment Date ), Maker shall make monthly payments to Holder in an
amount equal to all Net Operating Income (hereinafter defined) attributable to the Property for the calendar month ending on the last day of the month that is two months preceding each such Additional Payment Date. For example, assuming the Maturity Date is January 1, then Net Operating Income for the period from January 1 through January 31 shall be payable to Holder on March 1; Net Operating Income for the period from February 1 through February 28 shall be payable to Holder on April 1, and so on.
(e) Holder shall deposit all such Net Operating Income received from Maker into an account or accounts maintained at a financial institution chosen by Holder or its Servicer in its sole discretion (the Deposit Account ) and all such funds shall be invested in a manner acceptable to Holder in its sole discretion. All interest, dividends and earnings credited to the Deposit Account shall be held and applied in accordance with the terms hereof.
(f) On the third Additional Payment Date and on each third Additional Payment Date thereafter, Holder shall apply all Excess Funds (hereinafter defined), if any, to prepayment of amounts due under this Note, without premium or penalty.
(g) As security for the repayment of the Loan and the performance of all other obligations of Maker under the Loan Documents, Maker hereby assigns, pledges, conveys, delivers, transfers and grants to Holder a first priority security interest in and to: (i) all Makers right, title and interest in and to the Deposit Account; (ii) all rights to payment from the Deposit Account and the money deposited therein or credited thereto (whether then due or in the future due and whether then or in the future on deposit); (iii) all interest thereon; (iv) any certificates, instruments and securities, if any, representing the Deposit Account; (v) all claims, demands, general intangibles, choses in action and other rights or interests of Maker in respect of the Deposit Account; (vi) any monies then or at any time thereafter deposited therein; and (vii) any increases, renewals, extensions, substitutions and replacements thereof and all proceeds of the foregoing.
(h) From time to time, but not more frequently than monthly, Maker may request a disbursement (a Disbursement ) from the Deposit Account for capital expenses, tenant improvement expenses, leasing commissions and special contingency expenses. Holder may consent to or deny any such Disbursement in its sole discretion.
(i) During the existence of an Event of Default (hereinafter defined), (i) Maker shall not be entitled to any Disbursement from the Deposit Account and (ii) Holder shall be entitled to take immediate possession and control of the Deposit Account (and all funds contained therein) and to pursue all of its rights and remedies available to Holder under the Loan Documents, at law and in equity.
(j) All of the terms and conditions of the Loan shall apply during the Extension Term, except as expressly set forth above, and except that no further extensions of the Loan shall be permitted.
(k) For the purposes of the foregoing:
(i) Excess Funds shall mean, on any Additional Payment Date, the amount of funds then existing in the Deposit Account (including any
Net Operating Income due on the applicable Additional Payment Date), less an amount equal to the sum of three regularly scheduled payments of principal and interest due on this Note;
(ii) Net Operating Income shall mean, for any particular period of time, Gross Revenue for the relevant period, less Operating Expenses for the relevant period; provided, however, that if such amount is equal to or less than zero (0), Net Operating Income shall equal zero (0);
(iii) Gross Revenue shall mean all payments and other revenues (exclusive, however, of any payments attributable to sales taxes) received by or on behalf of Maker from all sources related to the ownership or operation of the Property, including, but not limited to, rents, room charges, parking fees, interest, security deposits (unless required to be held in a segregated account), business interruption insurance proceeds, operating expense pass-through revenues, direct expense reimbursements and common area maintenance charges, for the relevant period for which the calculation of Gross Revenue is being made; and
(iv) Operating Expenses shall mean the sum of all ordinary and necessary operating expenses actually paid by Maker in connection with the operation of the Property during the relevant period for which the calculation of Operating Expenses is being made, including, but not limited to, (a) payments made by Maker for taxes and insurance required under the Loan Documents and (b) monthly debt service payments as required under this Note.
3. Budgets During Extension Term.
(a) Within fifteen (15) Business Days (as defined below) following the Maturity Date and on or before December 1 of each subsequent calendar year, Maker shall deliver to Holder a proposed revenue and expense budget for the Property for the remainder of the calendar year in which the Maturity Date occurs or the immediately succeeding calendar year (as applicable). Such budget shall set forth Makers projection of Gross Revenue and Operating Expenses for the applicable calendar year, which shall be subject to Holders reasonable approval. Once a proposed budget has been reviewed and approved by Holder, and Maker has made all revisions requested by Holder, if any, the revised budget shall be delivered to Holder and shall thereafter become the budget for the Property hereunder (any such budget referred to as the Budget ) for the applicable calendar year. If Maker and Holder are unable to agree upon a Budget for any calendar year, the budgeted Operating Expenses (excluding extraordinary items) provided in the Budget for the Property for the preceding calendar year shall be considered the Budget for the Property for the subject calendar year until Maker and Holder agree upon a new Budget for such calendar year.
(b) During the Extension Term, Maker shall operate the Property in accordance with the applicable Budget for the applicable calendar year, and the total of expenditures relating to the Property exceeding one hundred and five percent (105%) of the aggregate of such expenses set forth in the applicable Budget for the applicable time period shall not be treated as Operating Expenses for the purposes of calculating Net Operating Income, without the prior written consent of Holder except for emergency expenditures which, in Makers
good faith judgment, are reasonably necessary to protect, or avoid immediate danger to, life or property.
4. Reports During Extension Term.
(a) During the Extension Term, Maker shall deliver to Holder all financial statements reasonably required by Holder to calculate Net Operating Income, including, without limitation, a monthly statement to be delivered to Holder concurrently with Makers payment of Net Operating Income that sets forth the amount of Net Operating Income accompanying such statement and Makers calculation of Net Operating Income for the relevant calendar month. Such statements shall be certified by an executive officer of Maker or Makers manager, managing member or general partner (as applicable) as having been prepared in accordance with the terms hereof and to be true, accurate and complete in all material respects.
(b) In addition, on or before February 1 of each calendar year during the Extension Term, Maker shall submit to Holder an annual income and expense statement for the Property which shall include the calculation of Gross Revenue, Operating Expenses and Net Operating Income for the preceding calendar year and shall be accompanied by Makers reconciliation of any difference between the actual aggregate amount of the Net Operating Income for such calendar year and the aggregate amount of Net Operating Income for such calendar year actually remitted to Holder, All such statements shall be certified by an executive officer of Maker or Makers manager, managing member or general partner (as applicable) as having been prepared in accordance with the terms hereof and to be true, accurate and complete in all material respects. If any such annual financial statement discloses any inconsistency between the calculation of Net Operating Income and the amount of Net Operating Income actually remitted to Holder, Maker shall immediately remit to Holder the amount of any underpayment of Net Operating Income for such calendar year or, in the event of an overpayment by Maker, such amount may be withheld from any subsequent payment of Net Operating Income required hereunder.
(c) Holder may notify Maker within ninety (90) days after receipt of any statement or report required hereunder that Holder disputes any computation or item contained in any portion of such statement or report. If Holder so notifies Maker, Holder and Maker shall meet in good faith within twenty (20) days after Holders notice to Maker to resolve such disputed items. If, despite such good faith efforts, the parties are unable to resolve the dispute at such meeting or within ten (10) days thereafter, the items shall be resolved by an independent certified public accountant designated by Holder within fifteen (15) days after such ten (10) day period. The determination of such accountant shall be final. All fees of such accountant shall be paid by Maker. Maker shall remit to Holder any additional amount of Net Operating Income found to be due for such periods within ten (10) days after the resolution of such dispute by the parties or the accountants determination, as applicable. The amount of any overpayment found to have been made for such periods may be withheld from any required future remittance of Net Operating Income.
(d) Maker shall at all times keep and maintain full and accurate books of account and records adequate to reflect correctly all items required in order to calculate Net Operating Income.
5. Prepayment
(a) Maker shall have no right to prepay all or any part of this Note prior to the date that is the last day of the forty-second (42) month following the date of this Note (the Lockout Expiration Date ).
(b) At any time following the Lockout Expiration Date, Maker shall have the right to prepay the full principal amount of this Note, and all other amounts due under this Note and the other Loan Documents, and all accrued but unpaid interest thereon as of the date of prepayment, provided that (i) Maker gives not less than thirty (30) days prior written notice to Holder of Makers election to prepay this Note, (ii) Maker pays a prepayment premium to Holder equal to the greater of (A) one percent (1%) of the outstanding principal amount of this Note or (B) the Present Value of this Note (hereinafter defined), less the amount of principal being prepaid, calculated as of the prepayment date and (iii) Maker prepays each of the other Additional Notes (as such term is defined in the Mortgage) and all other amounts due under the Additional Notes and the other Additional Loan Documents (as such term is defined in the Mortgage), and all accrued but unpaid interest thereon as of the date of prepayment.
(c) Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 5, no prepayment premium shall be due (i) in connection with any involuntary prepayment due to the Holders application of any insurance proceeds or condemnation awards to the principal balance of the Loan or (ii) if Maker provides additional funds to prepay the Loan in connection with the application of any insurance proceeds or condemnation awards to the principal balance of the Loan following any casualty or condemnation; provided, in any such case, that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such application of insurance proceeds or condemnation awards.
(d) Holder shall notify Maker in writing of the amount and basis of determination of the prepayment premium. Holder shall not be obligated to accept any prepayment of the principal balance of this Note unless such prepayment is accompanied by (i) the applicable prepayment premium, (ii) the outstanding principal balance of the Loan, (iii) all accrued interest and other sums due under this Note and all other amounts due under the Loan Documents and (iv) the outstanding principal balance of the Additional Loans (as such term is defined in the Mortgage) all accrued interest and other sums due under the Additional Notes and all other amounts due under the Additional Loan Documents. Maker may not prepay the Loan on a Friday, nor on any public holiday or the equivalent for banks generally under the laws of the State of New York or on any day preceding a public holiday, or the equivalent for banks generally under the laws of the State of New York.
(e) Except for making payments of Net Operating Income as required above, and except for the application of insurance proceeds or condemnation awards to the principal balance of this Note, as provided in the Mortgage (hereinafter defined), in no event shall Maker be permitted to make any partial prepayments of this Note.
(f) If Holder accelerates this Note for any reason, then in addition to Makers obligation to pay the then outstanding principal balance of this Note and all accrued but unpaid interest thereon, Maker shall pay an additional amount equal to the prepayment premium that would be due to Holder if Maker were voluntarily prepaying this Note at the time
that such acceleration occurred, or if under the terms hereof no voluntary prepayment would be permissible on the date of such acceleration, Maker shall pay a prepayment premium equal to 150% of the highest prepayment premium set forth in this Note, calculated as of the date of such acceleration as if prepayment were permitted on such date.
(g) For the purposes of the foregoing:
(i) The Present Value of this Note with respect to any prepayment of this Note, as of any date, shall be determined by discounting all scheduled payments of principal and interest remaining to maturity of this Note, attributed to the amount being prepaid, at the Discount Rate. If prepayment occurs on a date other than a Payment Date, the actual number of days remaining from the prepayment date to the next Payment Date will be used to calculate such discount within such period;
(ii) The Discount Rate is the rate which, when compounded monthly, is equivalent to the Treasury Rate, when compounded semi-annually;
(iii) The Treasury Rate is the semi-annual yield on the Treasury Constant Maturity Series with maturity equal to the remaining weighted average life of this Note, for the week prior to the prepayment date, as reported in Federal Reserve Statistical Release H. 15 - Selected Interest Rates, conclusively determined by Holder on the prepayment date. The rate will be determined by linear interpolation between the yields reported in Release H.15, if necessary. In the event Release H.15 is no longer published, Holder shall select a comparable publication to determine the Treasury Rate.
(h) Holder shall not be obligated actually to reinvest the amount prepaid in any treasury obligations as a condition precedent to receiving any prepayment premium.
(i) Notwithstanding the foregoing, (A) at any time during the Extension Term, Maker shall have the right to prepay in full, but not in part, the principal amount of this Note and all accrued but unpaid interest thereon as of the date of prepayment, without prepayment premium thereon and (B) no prepayment premium shall be due in connection with the prepayment of the full principal amount of this Note, and all other amounts due under this Note and the other Loan Documents, and all accrued but unpaid interest thereon as of the date of prepayment, during the ninety (90) day period prior to the Maturity Date.
6. Payments . Whenever any payment to be made under this Note shall be stated to be due on a Saturday, Sunday or public holiday or the equivalent for banks generally under the laws of the State of New York (any other day being a Business Day ), such payment may be made on the next succeeding Business Day.
7. Default Rate .
(a) The entire balance of principal, interest, and any other sums due under this Note and the other Loan Documents upon the maturity hereof, by acceleration or otherwise, shall bear interest from the date due until paid at the greater of (i) eighteen percent (18%) per annum and (ii) a per annum rate equal to four percent (4%) over the prime rate published
in The Wall Street Journal on the first business day of each month (the Default Rate ); provided, however, that such rate shall not exceed the maximum permitted by applicable state or federal law. In the event The Wall Street Journal is no longer published or no longer publishes such prime rate, Holder shall select a comparable reference.
(b) If any payment under this Note or any of the Additional Notes is not made when due, interest shall accrue at the Default Rate from the date such payment was due until payment is actually made.
8. Late Charges . In addition to interest as set forth herein, Maker shall pay to Holder a late charge equal to four percent (4%) of any amounts due under this Note in the event any such amount is not paid when due. Notwithstanding the foregoing provision, Holder will allow for one (1) five (5) day grace period upon monetary default without the obligation of paying a late charge in any twelve (12) month period during the term of the Loan.
9. Application of Payments . All payments hereunder shall be applied in the following order: (i) first, to the payment of late charges, if any; (ii) second, to the payment of prepayment premiums, if any; (iii) third, to the repayment of any sums advanced by Holder for the payment of any insurance premiums, taxes, assessments or other charges against the Property securing this Note and any other costs and expenses incurred by Holder in accordance with the Loan Documents (together with interest thereon at the Default Rate from the date of advance until repaid), if any; (iv) fourth, to the payment of accrued and unpaid interest and other amounts due and payable under the Loan Documents (other than principal), if any; and (v) fifth, to the reduction of principal. Notwithstanding the foregoing, for so long as any Event of Default is continuing, Holder shall have the continuing right to apply any payment received by Holder from or on behalf of Maker as Holder may elect against the due and owing obligations of Maker under the Note and the other Loan Documents in such order of priority or in such allocations as Holder may deem advisable in its sole and absolute discretion.
10. Immediately Available Funds . All payments under this Note shall be payable in immediately available funds without setoff, counterclaim or deduction of any kind, and shall be made by electronic funds transfer from a bank account established and maintained by Maker for such purpose.
11. Security . This Note is secured by, among other things, (i) that certain (a) Open-End Mortgage, Assignment of Leases and Rents, Security Agreement and Fixture Filing, of even date herewith, granted by Maker for the benefit of Holder (the Mortgage ) encumbering certain real property and improvements located at 15 Executive Boulevard, Orange, Connecticut 06477, as more particularly described in the Mortgage (the Property ), (ii) a Guaranty Agreement from Paul Cooper, Jeffrey Ravetz and Louis Sheinker (collectively, Guarantors ), in favor of Holder (the Guaranty ) and (iii) the Affiliate Guaranty (as such term is defined in the Mortgage).
12. Certain Definitions . Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings set forth in the Mortgage.
13. Event of Default . Each of the following events will constitute an event of default (an Event of Default ) under this Note and under the Mortgage and each other
document evidencing or securing or executed in connection with the Loan (collectively, the Loan Documents ), and any Event of Default under any Loan Document shall constitute an Event of Default hereunder and under each of the other Loan Documents:
(a) any failure to pay when due any interest, principal or other amount in a sum certain under this Note or under any of the other Loan Documents for which sum there is a scheduled date for payment or for which there is a date certain for payment.
(b) any failure to pay within ten (10) days following demand by Holder for any amount other than any amount described in Section 13(a) above; or
(c) any failure of Maker to properly perform any obligation contained herein or in any of the other Loan Documents (other than the obligation to make payments under this Note or the other Loan Documents) and the continuance of such failure for a period of thirty (30) days following written notice thereof from Holder to Maker; provided, however, that if such failure is not curable within such thirty (30) day period, then, so long as Maker commences to cure such failure within such thirty (30) day period and is continually and diligently attempting to cure to completion, such failure shall not be an Event of Default unless such failure remains uncured for one hundred twenty (120) days after such written notice to Maker; or
(d) if, at any time during the Extension Term, Gross Revenue for any calendar month shall be less than ninety-three percent (93%) of the amount of projected Gross Revenue for such month set forth in the applicable Budget; or
(e) the occurrence of any event that is deemed to be an Event of Default under any provision of this Note, the Mortgage, the Affiliate Guaranty any other Loan Document or any Additional Loan Document.
14. Acceleration . If at any time an Event of Default exists, the entire balance of principal, accrued interest and other sums owing hereunder shall, at the option of Holder, become at once due and payable without notice or demand. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default described in Section 13(d) hereof, Holder shall have the option, in its sole and absolute discretion, to either (a) exercise any remedies available to Holder under the Loan Documents, at law or in equity, or (b) require Maker to submit a new proposed budget for Holders approval. If Holder agrees to accept such new proposed budget, then such budget shall become the Budget for all purposes hereunder. If an Event of Default exists, Holder may exercise any right, power or remedy permitted by law or set forth herein or in the Mortgage or any other Loan Document.
15. Conditions Precedent . Maker hereby certifies and declares that all acts, conditions and things required to be done or performed or have happened precedent to the creation and issuance of this Note, and in order to constitute this Note the legal, valid and binding obligation of Maker, enforceable in accordance with the terms hereof, have been done or performed or have happened in due and strict compliance with all applicable laws.
16. Certain Waivers and Consents . Maker and all parties now or hereafter liable for the payment hereof, primarily or secondarily, directly or indirectly, and
whether as endorser, guarantor, surety, or otherwise, hereby severally (a) waive presentment, demand, protest, notice of protest and/or dishonor, and all other demands or notices of any sort whatever with respect to this Note, (b) consent to impairment or release of collateral, extensions of time for payment, and acceptance of partial payments before, at, or after maturity, (c) waive any right to require Holder to proceed against any security for this Note before proceeding hereunder, (d) waive diligence in the collection of this Note or in filing suit on this Note and (e) agree to pay all out-of-pocket costs and expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys fees, which may be actually incurred in the collection of this Note or any part thereof or in preserving, securing possession of and realizing upon any security for this Note.
17. Usury Savings Clause. The provisions of this Note and of all agreements between Maker and Holder are, whether now existing or hereinafter made, hereby expressly limited so that in no contingency or event whatsoever, whether by reason of acceleration of the maturity hereof, prepayment, demand for payment or otherwise, shall the amount paid, or agreed to be paid, to Holder for the use, forbearance or detention of the principal hereof or interest hereon, which remains unpaid from time to time, exceed the maximum amount permissible under applicable law. In particular, it is the intention of the parties hereto to conform strictly to Connecticut and Federal law, whichever is applicable. If as a result of any circumstance whatsoever, the performance or fulfillment of any provision hereof or of any other agreement between Maker and Holder pertaining to the subject matter hereof shall, at the time performance or fulfillment of such provision is due, involve or purport to require any payment in excess of the limits then prescribed by applicable law, then the obligation to be performed or fulfilled shall hereby be reduced to such limit as to be valid under such applicable law, and if as a result of any circumstance whatsoever, Holder should receive as interest under this Note an amount which would exceed the then highest lawful rate, the amount by which such interest payment would exceed such highest lawful rate shall be applied to the reduction of the principal balance owing hereunder without prepayment or penalty (or, at Holders option, be paid to Maker) and in no event shall be counted as interest. To the fullest extent permitted by then applicable law, the determination of the legal maximum amount of interest shall at any and all times be made by amortizing, prorating, allocating and spreading in equal parts over the period of the full stated term of this Note, all interest at any time contracted for, charged or received from Maker in connection with this Note and all other agreements between Maker and Holder pertaining to the subject matter hereof, so that the actual rate of interest on account of the indebtedness represented by this Note is uniform throughout the term hereof and complies with all applicable law.
18. Non-Recourse; Exceptions to Non-Recourse.
(a) Nothing contained in the Loan Documents shall be deemed to impair, limit or prejudice Holders rights in foreclosure proceedings or in any ancillary proceedings brought to facilitate Holders foreclosure on the Property or any portion thereof or to exercise any specific rights or remedies afforded Holder under any other provisions of the Loan Documents or by law or in equity, subject to the non-recourse provisions set forth below, to recover under any guarantee given in connection with the Loan or to pursue any personal liability of Maker or any Guarantor under the Guaranty Agreement, the Environmental Indemnity Agreement or the ERISA indemnity provisions of the Mortgage. Except as expressly hereinafter set forth, the recourse of Holder with respect to the obligations evidenced by this Note, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents (except for the Guaranty and the Environmental
Indemnity Agreement) shall be solely to the Property, Chattels and Intangible Personalty (as such terms are defined in the Mortgage). Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary contained in this Note, the Mortgage or in any other Loan Document, nothing shall be deemed in any way to impair, limit or prejudice the rights of Holder to collect or recover from Maker (but not any member, manager, officer, director or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing, with the exclusion of the Guarantors) and Guarantors: (i) damages or costs (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys fees) incurred by Holder as a result of any intentional waste by Maker; (ii) any condemnation award or insurance proceeds attributable to the Property which were not paid to Holder or used to restore the Property in accordance with the terms of the Mortgage; (iii) any Rents, profits, security deposits, advances, rebates, prepaid rents or other similar sums attributable to the Property collected by or for Maker (x) following an Event of Default under any Loan Document and not properly applied to the reasonable fixed and operating expenses of the Property, including, without limitation, payments due on this Note and other sums due under the Loan Documents or (y) to the extent not deposited into the Lockbox Account; (iv) any security deposits collected by or for Maker and not applied in accordance with the applicable Leases (as such term is defined in the Mortgage); (v) the amount of any accrued taxes, assessments, and/or utility charges affecting the Property (whether or not the same have been billed to Maker) that are either unpaid by Maker or advanced by Holder under the Mortgage, except, in respect of the Property, to the extent of any of the foregoing accruing after the Termination Date (as hereinafter defined) with respect to the Property; (vi) any sums expended by Holder in fulfilling the obligations of Maker, as lessor, under any Lease affecting the Property; (vii) the amount of any loss suffered by Holder (that would otherwise be covered by insurance and available to Holder in accordance with the Loan Documents) as a result of Makers failure to maintain any insurance required under the terms of any Loan Document; and (viii) losses, damages and costs (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys fees) incurred by Holder as a result of any fraud of material misrepresentation by Maker in connection with the Property or any of the Loan Documents. For the avoidance of doubt, the matters set forth in this paragraph (a) shall be fully recourse to Maker (but not any member, manager, officer, director or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing, with the exclusion of the Guarantors) and Guarantor. For the purposes of this Section 18(a), the Termination Date is, in respect of the Property, the earliest of (x) the date that Maker tenders to Holder or Holders designee a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure in respect of the Property, subject to no title exceptions other than real estate taxes and assessments, the Permitted Exceptions (as defined in the applicable Mortgage) and such additional exceptions approved by Holder pursuant to the Loan Documents or which are otherwise acceptable to Holder in its reasonable discretion, together with such ancillary conveyances, releases and other documentation that are customarily delivered in connection with a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure transaction, all in form reasonably satisfactory to Holder, and such deed-in-lieu of foreclosure is accepted by Holder in its sole discretion (y) the date that Maker tenders to Holder a stipulation to entry of judgment of foreclosure in respect of the Property, and (z) the date Holder, any Affiliate of Holder, or any other party takes title to the Property in connection with a foreclosure of the applicable Mortgage that encumbers the Property. If Maker elects to deliver a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure in respect of the Property, Holder shall retain the right to determine whether to accept such deed-in-lieu of foreclosure or to proceed with foreclosure proceedings and, upon Holder making such election, Maker shall execute and deliver to Holder an appropriate deed-in-lieu of foreclosure in respect of the Property, as Holder shall have elected; provided, however, that if Holder chooses to proceed with foreclosure proceedings in respect of the Property, the Termination Date shall nonetheless be the earliest of the date specified in clause (x), (y) and (z) above, provided further that if Maker thereafter fails to cooperate with
Holder in respect of Holders exercise of any and all remedies available at law or in equity to Holder (including, without limitation, foreclosure), then the Termination Date shall be the earlier of the date specified in clause (y) or (z) above.
(b) The agreement contained in this Section 18 to limit the personal liability of Maker to its interest in the Property, Chattels and Intangible Personalty shall become null and void and be of no further force and effect, and Maker (but not any member, manager, officer, director or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing, with the exclusion of the Guarantors) and Guarantors shall be personally liable for the repayment of the Secured Obligations (as such term is defined in the Mortgage) in the event (i) that the Property, or any part thereof or any interest therein, or any interest in Maker, or any of them, shall be further encumbered by a voluntary lien securing any obligation upon which Maker, or any of them, any direct or indirect general partner, manager or managing member such Maker, any Guarantor, any of the Mortgagor Control Persons (as defined in the Mortgage) or any principal or affiliate of Maker, or any of them, shall be personally liable for repayment, either as obligor or guarantor, (ii) of any breach or violation of Section 5.4, 5.5 or 5.7 of the Mortgage, (iii) that Maker forfeits the Property or the Chattels or any portion of the Property or Chattels due to criminal activity, (iv) any attempt by Maker, any Guarantor or any Mortgagor Owner Person (as defined in the Mortgage) to materially delay any foreclosure against the Property, Chattels and/or Intangible Personalty, or any portion of the Property, the Chattels and/or the Intangible Personalty or any other exercise by Holder of its remedies under the Loan Documents, which attempts shall (x) include, without limitation, (A) any claim made by Maker that any Loan Document is invalid or unenforceable to an extent that would preclude any such foreclosure or other exercise of remedies, (B) Maker filing a petition in bankruptcy, Maker acquiescing in an involuntary bankruptcy proceeding, Maker failing to oppose in good faith the entry of an order for relief pursuant to any involuntary bankruptcy filed against it, or Maker filing a petition or answer seeking any reorganization, arrangement, composition, readjustment, liquidation, dissolution or similar relief under the bankruptcy laws of the United States or under any other similar federal, state or other statute relating to relief from indebtedness (whether filed by or against Maker), or (C) the appointment of a receiver, trustee or liquidator by Maker, any Guarantor or any Mortgagor Owner Person with respect to Maker or the Property or any part thereof and (y) shall not include a defense to a foreclosure that is (A) not frivolous and is advanced in good faith and (B) based upon a default by Holder under terms of the Loan Documents, or (v) any execution, amendment, modification or early termination of any Lease of any Required Tenant made in violation of the Loan Documents. For the avoidance of doubt, no such termination of any Lease shall excuse Maker from the performance of its obligations under the Loan Documents. For purposes of the foregoing, affiliate shall have the meaning ascribed to the term Affiliate in the Mortgage.
19. Severability . If any provision hereof or of any other document securing or otherwise related to the indebtedness evidenced hereby is, for any reason and to any extent, deemed invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction or with respect to any person, entity or circumstances, then neither the remainder of the document in which such provision is contained, nor the application of such provision in respect of other persons, entities, or circumstances, nor any other document referred to herein, shall be affected by such invalidity or lack of enforceability, but, instead, shall be enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by law.
20. Transfer of Note . Each provision of this Note shall be and remain in full force and effect notwithstanding any negotiation or transfer hereof and any interest herein to any other Holder or participant.
21. Governing Law. Regardless of the place of its execution, this Note shall be construed and enforced in accordance with the substantive laws of the State of Connecticut.
22. Time of Essence. Time is of the essence of this Note.
23. Remedies Cumulative. The remedies provided to Holder in this Note, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents are cumulative and concurrent and may be exercised singly, successively or jointly against Maker, the Property, and other security, or against Guarantors or any obligor under, or guarantor of, this Note or the other Loan Documents, at the sole and absolute discretion of Holder.
24. No Waiver. Holder shall not by any act or omission be deemed to have waived any of its rights or remedies hereunder unless such waiver is in writing and signed by Holder and then only to the extent specifically set forth therein. A waiver of one event shall not be construed as continuing or as a bar to or waiver of any right or remedy granted to Holder hereunder in connection with a subsequent event.
25. Joint and Several Obligation. If Maker is more than one person or entity, then: (a) all persons or entities comprising Maker are jointly and severally liable for all of Makers obligations hereunder; (b) all representations, warranties and covenants made by Maker shall be deemed representations, warranties and covenants of each of the persons or entities comprising Maker; (c) any breach, Default or Event of Default by any of the persons or entities comprising Maker hereunder shall be deemed to be a breach, Default or Event of Default of Maker; and (d) any reference herein contained to the knowledge or awareness of Maker shall mean the knowledge or awareness of any of the persons or entities comprising Maker.
26. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL . MAKER AND HOLDER KNOWINGLY, IRREVOCABLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT EITHER MAKER OR HOLDER MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM BASED ON THIS NOTE, OR ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS NOTE, THE MORTGAGE, OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS OR ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT, COURSE OF DEALING, STATEMENT (WHETHER VERBAL OR WRITTEN) OR ACTIONS OF ANY PARTY HERETO OR TO ANY LOAN DOCUMENT. THIS PROVISION IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR MAKER AND HOLDER TO ENTER INTO THE LOAN TRANSACTION EVIDENCED BY THIS NOTE.
27. WAIVER OF PREPAYMENT RIGHT WITHOUT PREMIUM . EXCEPT AS EXPLICITLY SET FORTH HEREIN, MAKER HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE UNDER APPLICABLE LAW TO PREPAY THIS NOTE, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, WITHOUT PREPAYMENT PREMIUM, UPON ACCELERATION OF THE MATURITY DATE OF THIS NOTE, AND AGREES THAT, IF FOR ANY REASON A PREPAYMENT OF ALL OR ANY PART OF THIS NOTE IS MADE, WHETHER
VOLUNTARILY OR FOLLOWING ANY ACCELERATION OF THE MATURITY DATE OF THIS NOTE BY HOLDER ON ACCOUNT OF THE OCCURRENCE OF ANY EVENT OF DEFAULT ARISING FOR ANY REASON, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, AS A RESULT OF ANY PROHIBITED OR RESTRICTED TRANSFER, FURTHER ENCUMBRANCE OR DISPOSITION OF THE PROPERTY OR ANY PART THEREOF SECURING THIS NOTE, THEN MAKER SHALL BE OBLIGATED TO PAY, CONCURRENTLY WITH SUCH PREPAYMENT, THE PREPAYMENT PREMIUM PROVIDED FOR IN THIS NOTE OR, IN THE EVENT OF PREPAYMENT FOLLOWING ACCELERATION OF THE MATURITY DATE HEREOF WHEN THIS NOTE IS CLOSED TO PREPAYMENT, AS PROVIDED HEREIN AND IN THE MORTGAGE. MAKER HEREBY DECLARES THAT HOLDERS AGREEMENT TO MAKE THE LOAN AT THE INTEREST RATE AND FOR THE TERM SET FORTH IN THIS NOTE CONSTITUTES ADEQUATE CONSIDERATION, GIVEN INDIVIDUAL WEIGHT BY MAKER, FOR THIS WAIVER AND AGREEMENT.
[END OF TEXT]
IN WITNESS WHEREOF and intending to be legally bound, Maker has duly executed this Note as of the date first above written.

ARTICLE 4
MORTGAGORS AFFIRMATIVE COVENANTS
4.1 Payment of Note. Mortgagor shall pay all principal, interest and other sums payable under the Note or the other Loan Documents on the date when such payments are due, without notice or demand.
4.2 Performance of Other Obligations. Mortgagor shall promptly perform and comply with all other covenants, conditions and prohibitions required of Mortgagor by the terms of the Loan Documents.
4.3 Other Encumbrances. Mortgagor shall promptly perform and comply, in all material respects, with all covenants, conditions and prohibitions required of Mortgagor in connection with any Access Agreement and any other encumbrance affecting the Property, the Chattels or the Intangible Personalty, or any part thereof, or any interest therein, regardless of whether such other encumbrance is superior or subordinate to the lien hereof.
4.4 Payment of Taxes.
(a) Property Taxes . Unless Mortgagor is depositing money into escrow pursuant to Section 4.4(b) , Mortgagor shall (i) pay, before delinquency and before the imposition of any penalty or interest, all taxes and assessments, general or special, which may be levied or imposed at any time against Mortgagors interest and estate in the Property, the Chattels or the Intangible Personalty, and (ii) within ten (10) days after each payment of any such tax or assessment, Mortgagor will deliver to Mortgagee, without notice or demand, an official receipt for such payment. Unless Taxes are being paid by Mortgagee, Mortgagor shall provide Mortgagee with reasonably satisfactory evidence of the payment of all such taxes and assessments, general or special, which may be levied or imposed at any time against Mortgagors interest and estate in the Property, the Chattels or the Intangible Personalty within ten (10) days following any such payment.
(b) Deposit for Taxes . On the date hereof, Mortgagor shall deposit with Mortgagee an amount equal to 1/12th of the amount which Mortgagee estimates will be required to make the next annual payment of taxes, assessments and similar governmental charges referred to in this Section, multiplied by the number of whole or partial months that have elapsed since the date one month prior to the most recent due date for such taxes, assessments and similar governmental charges. Thereafter, with each monthly payment under the Note, Mortgagor shall deposit with Mortgagee an amount equal to 1/12th of the amount which Mortgagee estimates will be required to pay the next annual payment of taxes, assessments and similar governmental charges referred to in this Section. The purpose of these provisions is to provide Mortgagee with sufficient funds on hand to pay all such taxes, assessments and other governmental charges thirty (30) days before the date on which they become past due. If Mortgagee, in its sole discretion, determines that the funds escrowed hereunder are, or will be, insufficient, Mortgagor shall upon demand pay such additional sums as Mortgagee shall determine necessary and shall pay any increased monthly charges requested by Mortgagee. Provided no Event of Default exists hereunder, Mortgagee will apply the amounts so deposited to the payment of such taxes, assessments and other charges when due, but in no event will Mortgagee be liable for any interest on any amount so deposited, and any amount so deposited may be held and commingled with Mortgagees own funds.
(c) Intangible Taxes . If by reason of any statutory or constitutional amendment or judicial decision adopted or rendered after the date hereof, any tax, assessment or similar charge is imposed against the Note, Mortgagee, or any interest of Mortgagee in any real or personal property encumbered hereby, Mortgagor will pay such tax, assessment or other charge before delinquency and will indemnify Mortgagee against all loss, expense or diminution of income in connection therewith. In the event Mortgagor is unable to do so, either for economic reasons or because the legal provisions or decisions creating such tax, assessment or charge forbid Mortgagor from doing so, then the Note will, at Mortgagees option, become due and payable in full upon thirty (30) days notice to Mortgagor.
(d) Right to Contest . Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section, Mortgagor will not be deemed to be in default solely by reason of Mortgagors failure to pay any tax, assessment or similar governmental charge so long as, in Mortgagees judgment, each of the following conditions is satisfied:
(i) Mortgagor is engaged in and diligently pursuing in good faith administrative or judicial proceedings appropriate to contest the validity or amount of such tax, assessment or charge;
(ii) Mortgagors payment of such tax, assessment or charge would necessarily and materially prejudice Mortgagors prospects for success in such proceedings;
(iii) Nonpayment of such tax, assessment, or charge will not result in the loss or forfeiture of any property encumbered hereby or any interest of Mortgagee therein; and
(iv) Mortgagor deposits with Mortgagee, as security for such payment which may ultimately be required, a sum equal to the amount of the disputed tax, assessment or charge plus the interest, penalties, advertising charges and other costs which Mortgagee estimates are likely to become payable if Mortgagors contest is unsuccessful. For the avoidance of doubt, the funds required to be deposited with Mortgagee under this paragraph (iv) shall be in addition to all taxes, assessments and other governmental charges that are not being contested and that are subject to the deposit provisions of Section 4.4(b) hereof.
If Mortgagee determines that any one or more of such conditions is not satisfied or is no longer satisfied, Mortgagor will pay the tax, assessment or charge in question, together with any interest and penalties thereon, within ten (10) days after Mortgagee gives notice of such determination.
4.5 Maintenance of Insurance.
(a) Coverages Required . Mortgagor shall maintain or cause to be maintained, with financially sound and reputable insurance companies or associations satisfactory to Mortgagee, all insurance required under the terms of the Insurance Agreement, and shall comply with each and every covenant and agreement contained in such Insurance Agreement. Mortgagor shall provide Mortgagee with reasonably satisfactory evidence of the payment of the premiums of all such insurance within five (5) business days following the any such payment.
(b) Renewal Policies . Not less than thirty (30) days prior to the expiration date of each insurance policy required pursuant to the Insurance Agreement, Mortgagor will deliver to Mortgagee either an appropriate renewal policy (or a certified copy thereof), together with evidence satisfactory to Mortgagee that the applicable premium has been prepaid.
(c) Deposit for Premiums . If an Event of Default exists or if Mortgagor shall fail to provide Mortgagee with evidence of insurance as and when required under this Mortgage and the Insurance Agreement, Mortgagor shall deposit with Mortgagee an amount equal to 1/12th of the amount which Mortgagee estimates will be required to make the next annual payments of the premiums for the policies of insurance referred to in this Section, multiplied by the number of whole and partial months which have elapsed since the date one month prior to the most recent policy anniversary date for each such policy. Thereafter, with each monthly payment under the Note, Mortgagor will deposit an amount equal to 1/12th of the amount which Mortgagee estimates will be required to pay the next required annual premium for each insurance policy referred to in this Section. The purpose of these provisions is to provide Mortgagee with sufficient funds on hand to pay all such premiums thirty (30) days before the date on which they become past due. If Mortgagee, in its sole discretion, determines that the funds escrowed hereunder are, or will be, insufficient, Mortgagor shall upon demand, pay such additional sums as Mortgagee shall determine as necessary and shall pay any increased monthly charges requested by Mortgagee. Provided no Event of Default exists hereunder, Mortgagee will apply the amounts so deposited to the payment of such insurance premiums when due, but in no event will Mortgagee be liable for any interest on any amounts so deposited, and the money so received may be held and commingled with Mortgagees own funds.
(d) Application of Hazard Insurance Proceeds . Mortgagor shall after learning thereof promptly notify Mortgagee of any damage or casualty to all or any portion of the Property or Chattels. Mortgagee may participate in all negotiations and appear and participate in all judicial or arbitration proceedings concerning any insurance proceeds which may be payable as a result of such casualty or damage, and may, in Mortgagees sole discretion, compromise or settle, in the names of both Mortgagor and Mortgagee, any claim for any such insurance proceeds; provided, however, that in any event any such compromise or settlement shall be subject to the prior consent of Mortgagee, which may be granted or withheld in Mortgagees discretion. Any such insurance proceeds shall be paid directly to Mortgagee and shall be applied first to reimburse Mortgagee for all out-of-pocket costs and expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys fees, actually incurred by Mortgagee in connection with the ascertainment and collection of such insurance proceeds. The balance, if any, of any insurance proceeds received by Mortgagee with respect to an insured damage or casualty shall, in Mortgagees sole discretion, either (i) be retained and applied by Mortgagee toward payment of the Secured Obligations, in such order and manner as Mortgagee deems appropriate, or (ii) be paid over, in whole or in part and subject to such conditions as Mortgagee may impose, to Mortgagor to pay for repairs or replacements necessitated by the damage or casualty; provided, however, that if all of the Secured Obligations have been performed or are discharged by the application of less than all of such insurance proceeds, then any remaining proceeds will be paid over to Mortgagor.
Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.5(d) , Mortgagee shall make any such insurance proceeds available to Mortgagor for restoration of the Property, provided, and on the following conditions: (A) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, (B) Mortgagor demonstrates to the reasonable satisfaction of Mortgagee that Mortgagor has the financial ability to pay all principal and interest required under the Note, and perform all of the other Secured Obligations, during the restoration of the Property from the proceeds of rent loss or business interruption insurance or otherwise, (C) the damage or casualty occurs prior to the last six (6) months of the term of the Loan and the restoration is capable of being completed prior to the stated maturity date of the Loan, (D) all insurance proceeds and other funds provided by Mortgagor for the restoration are released under escrow and construction funding arrangements reasonably satisfactory to Mortgagee, (E) the repair or restoration will return the Property to substantially the same size, design and utility as existed immediately prior to the damage or casualty, (F) in the event the proceeds of insurance are insufficient to pay by themselves for the restoration (as determined in good faith by Mortgagee), Mortgagor shall, prior to the commencement of any restoration work, deposit with Mortgagee within fifteen (15) days after the date on which the proceeds of insurance are received by Mortgagee such additional funds as in the good faith opinion of Mortgagee are necessary to complete the restoration; (G) Mortgagor undertakes and covenants and agrees (in writing) with Mortgagee to fund any and all deficiencies within fifteen (15) days after being notified in writing thereof and prior to the distribution of any further insurance proceeds, so that at all times the funds held by Mortgagee and remaining to be disbursed for purposes of the restoration shall be sufficient to complete the work; (H) the annual income from the Leases that are in existence as of the date hereof or executed in accordance with the provisions of this Mortgage and that will survive the restoration or repair of the Property produce a Debt Service Coverage Ratio of not less than 1.2 to 1.0, and Mortgagor demonstrates to Mortgagees reasonable satisfaction that Mortgagor will be able to attain Debt Service Coverage Ratio of at least 1.2 to 1.0 from Leases that are in existence as of the date hereof or executed in accordance with the provisions of this Mortgage within six (6) months after completion of the restoration; and (I) if any site plan amendment, variance, special use permit or other similar special approval or consent is required from any government authority or any other Person for such repair or restoration, Mortgagor shall obtain and deliver to Mortgagee such site plan amendment, variance, special use permit or other similar special approval or consent within one hundred eighty (180) days following such casualty or damage (but such one hundred eighty (180) day time period shall in all respects be subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.5(d) and shall not extend or otherwise modify any time periods in such foregoing provisions). Mortgagee may, prior to the application of insurance proceeds, commingle them with Mortgagees own funds and otherwise act with regard to such proceeds as Mortgagee may determine in Mortgagees sole discretion. If Mortgagee applies the insurance proceeds to the Secured Obligations due to the failure of the conditions under clause (H) of this Section 4.5(d) to be satisfied, then Mortgagor may, upon written notice delivered to Mortgagee within thirty (30) days following such application of the insurance proceeds to the Secured Obligations, elect to prepay the full principal amount of the Loan and all other amounts due under the Loan Documents, together with all accrued but unpaid interest thereon, and all other Secured Obligations, without any prepayment premium or penalty, such prepayment to be made within one-hundred eighty (180) days following such application of the insurance proceeds; provided, however, that Mortgagor continues to pay and fulfill all of Mortgagors obligations under this Note, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents up to and including the date of such full prepayment. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.5 , in the event the insurance proceeds are less than $250,000 and there does not exist any Default or Event of Default, then (i) Mortgagor may compromise or settle the claim for such proceeds, (ii) the proceeds shall be paid directly to Mortgagor and (iii) Mortgagor shall undertake and complete the repair or restoration of the Property so as to return the Property to substantially the same size, design and utility as existed immediately prior to the damage or casualty and shall fund any deficiency in the event such proceeds are insufficient to complete such repair or restoration.
(e) Successors Rights . Any person who acquires title to the Property or the Chattels upon foreclosure hereunder will succeed to Mortgagors rights under all policies of insurance maintained pursuant to this Section.
4.6 Maintenance and Repair of the Property and Chattels; Contracts. Mortgagor shall at all times maintain the Property and the Chattels in good condition and repair, will diligently prosecute the completion of any building or other improvement which is at any time in the process of construction on the Property, and will promptly repair, restore, replace, or rebuild any part of the Property or the Chattels which may be affected by any casualty or any public or private taking or injury to the Property or the Chattels. All costs and expenses arising out of the foregoing shall be paid by Mortgagor whether or not the proceeds of any insurance or eminent domain shall be sufficient therefor. Mortgagor shall maintain access to and egress from the Property by public streets. Subject to the provisions of Section 4.15(b) , Mortgagor will comply with (or cause compliance with) all statutes, ordinances, and other governmental or quasi-governmental requirements and private covenants relating to the ownership, construction, use, or operation of the Property, including but not limited to, any zoning requirements, any environmental or ecological requirements and any requirements regarding access for persons with disabilities. Mortgagee and any Person authorized by Mortgagee may upon prior notice to Mortgagor enter and inspect the Property at all reasonable times, and may inspect the Chattels, wherever located, at all reasonable times. Mortgagor shall take all actions necessary or required under the Leases to effect the provisions of the immediately preceding sentence. Mortgagor shall maintain all public utility services (including, without limitation, water supply, storm and sanitary sewer facilities, and natural gas, electric, telephone, cable television and high speed Internet access facilities) necessary for the operation of the Property (including, without limitation, improvements constituting part of the Property) for its intended purposes, and, without limiting such maintenance requirement, shall maintain such services at the boundaries of the land constituting part of the Property. Mortgagor shall comply (or cause compliance with) with all requirements of any insurance company or inspection or rating bureau in respect of the Property, including, without limitation, any requirements for the continuation of any insurance coverage or the continuation thereof at premium rates. Mortgagor shall timely pay and perform in all material respects each of its obligations under or in connection with the Contracts. Mortgagor shall not, without Mortgagees consent, enter into any Contract that has a term in excess of one hundred eighty (180) days unless such Contract is terminable by Mortgagor (without penalty) on thirty (30) days notice, except for any Contract disclosed in the Lease Certificate. Mortgagor and none of the Mortgagor Control Persons shall enter into any contract or agreement that contravenes any of the Loan Documents or which provides or has the effect that the performance of the Loan Documents constitutes a default under such contract or agreement or results in the creation of any lien, security interest, other charge or encumbrance upon or with respect to its properties. Mortgagor shall perform, observe and fulfill, in all material respects, and shall cause Guarantors to perform, observe and fulfill, in all material respects, all of the obligations, covenants and conditions set forth in any agreement or instrument to which Mortgagor or Guarantors, as the case may be, or any of the properties, assets or revenues of Mortgagor or Guarantors, as the case may be, are bound, if the failure to perform, observe or fulfill any such obligation, covenant or condition would materially and adversely affect the properties, assets, operations or condition (financial or otherwise) of Mortgagor or Guarantors, as the case may be, or the ability of any party to the Loan Documents to perform such partys obligations under the Loan Documents.
4.7 Leases. Mortgagor shall timely pay and perform each of its obligations under or in connection with the Leases, and shall otherwise pay such sums and take such action as shall be necessary or required in order to maintain each of the Leases in full force and effect in accordance with its terms. Mortgagor shall within five (5) business days following receipt thereof, furnish to Mortgagee copies of any notices given to Mortgagor by the lessee under any Lease, alleging the default by Mortgagor in the timely payment or performance of its obligations under such Lease, or purporting to terminate or cancel any Lease prior to its stated expiration date, or requiring or demanding the expenditure of any sum by Mortgagor (or demanding the taking of any action by Mortgagor), and any subsequent communications related thereto. Mortgagor agrees that Mortgagee, in its sole discretion, five (5) days following notice to Mortgagor from Mortgagee and provided that Mortgagor fails to take action to perform its obligations under such Lease within the five (5) days following such notice to Mortgagor from Mortgagee, may advance any sum or take any action which Mortgagee reasonably believes is necessary or required to maintain the Leases in full force and effect, and all such sums advanced by Mortgagee, together with all costs and expenses incurred by Mortgagee in connection with action taken by Mortgagee pursuant to this Section, shall be due and payable by Mortgagor to Mortgagee upon demand, shall bear interest until paid at the Default Rate, and shall be secured by this Mortgage.
4.8 Eminent Domain; Private Damage. If all or any part of the Property is taken or damaged by eminent domain or any other public or private action, Mortgagor will notify Mortgagee promptly of the time and place of all meetings, hearings, trials, and other proceedings relating to such action. Mortgagee may participate in all negotiations and appear and participate in all judicial or arbitration proceedings concerning any award or payment which may be due as a result of such taking or damage, and may, in Mortgagees sole discretion, compromise or settle, in the names of both Mortgagor and Mortgagee, any claim for any such award or payment; provided, however, that in any event any such compromise or settlement shall be subject to the prior consent of Mortgagee, which may be granted or withheld in Mortgagees discretion. Any such award or payment shall be paid directly to Mortgagee and shall be applied first to reimburse Mortgagee for all costs and expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys fees, incurred by Mortgagee in connection with the ascertainment and collection of such award or payment. The balance, if any, of such award or payment received by Mortgagee with respect to a condemnation shall, in Mortgagees sole discretion, either (i) be retained and applied by Mortgagee toward payment of the Secured Obligations, in such order and manner as Mortgagee deems appropriate, or (ii) be paid over, in whole or in part and subject to such conditions as Mortgagee may impose, to Mortgagor for the purpose of restoring, repairing, or rebuilding any part of the Property affected by the taking or damage.
Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.8 , Mortgagee shall make any such award or payment available to Mortgagor for restoration of the Property, provided, and on the following conditions: (A) no Event of Default or monetary or material non-monetary Default shall have occurred and be continuing, (B) Mortgagor demonstrates to the reasonable satisfaction of Mortgagee that Mortgagor has the financial ability to pay all principal and interest required under the Note, and perform all of the other Secured Obligations, during the restoration of the Property from the proceeds of rent loss or business interruption insurance or otherwise, (C) the damage occurs prior to the last six (6) months of the term of the Loan and the restoration is capable of being completed prior to the stated maturity date of the Loan, (D) any condemnation award and other funds provided by Mortgagor for the restoration are released under escrow and construction funding arrangements reasonably satisfactory to Mortgagee, (E) the repair or restoration will return the Property to substantially the same size, design and utility as existed immediately prior to the damage, (F) in the event the condemnation award is insufficient to pay by itself for the restoration (as determined in good faith by Mortgagee), Mortgagor shall, prior to the commencement of any restoration work, deposit with Mortgagee within fifteen (15) days after the date on which the condemnation award is received by Mortgagee such additional funds as in the good faith opinion of Mortgagee are necessary to complete the restoration; (G) Mortgagor undertakes and covenants and agrees (in writing) with Mortgagee to fund any and all deficiencies within fifteen (15) days after being notified in writing thereof and prior to the distribution of any further portion of the condemnation award, so that at all times the funds held by Mortgagee and remaining to be disbursed for purposes of the restoration shall be sufficient to complete the work; (H) the annual income from the Leases that are in existence as of the date hereof or executed in accordance with the provisions of this Mortgage and that will survive the restoration or repair of the Property produce a Debt Service Coverage Ratio of not less than 1.2 to 1.0, and Mortgagor demonstrates to Mortgagees reasonable satisfaction that Mortgagor will be able to attain Debt Service Coverage Ratio of at least 1.2 to 1.0 from Leases that are in existence as of the date hereof or executed in accordance with the provisions of this Mortgage within six (6) months after completion of the restoration; and (I) if any site plan amendment, variance, special use permit or other similar special approval or consent is required from any government authority or any other Person for such repair or restoration, Mortgagor shall obtain and deliver to Mortgagee such site plan amendment, variance, special use permit or other similar special approval or consent within one hundred eighty (180) days following such taking or condemnation (but such one hundred eighty (180) day time period shall in all respects be subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.8 and shall not extend or otherwise modify any time periods in such foregoing provisions). Mortgagee may, prior to the application of any condemnation award, commingle it with Mortgagees own funds and otherwise act with regard to such award as Mortgagee may determine in Mortgagees sole discretion. If Mortgagee applies the condemnation award to the Secured Obligations due to the failure of the conditions under clause (H) of this Section 4.8 to be satisfied, then Mortgagor may, upon written notice delivered to Mortgagee within thirty (30) days following such application of the condemnation award to the Secured Obligations, elect to prepay the full principal amount of the Loan and all other amounts due under the Loan Documents, together with all accrued but unpaid interest thereon, and all other Secured Obligations, without any prepayment premium or penalty, such prepayment to be made within one-hundred eighty (180) days following such application of the condemnation award; provided, however, that Mortgagor continues to pay and fulfill all of Mortgagors obligations under this Note, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents up to and including the date of such full prepayment. If this Mortgage has been foreclosed prior to Mortgagees receipt of such award or payment, Mortgagee may nonetheless retain such award or payment to the extent required to reimburse Mortgagee for all costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys fees, incurred in connection therewith, and to discharge any deficiency remaining with respect to the Secured Obligations.
Mortgagee will have no obligation to see to the proper application of any proceeds paid over to Mortgagor, nor will any such proceeds received by Mortgagee bear interest or be subject to any other charge for the benefit of Mortgagor. If such proceeds are deposited with Mortgagee, Mortgagee may, prior to the application of such proceeds, commingle them with Mortgagees own funds and otherwise act with regard to such proceeds as Mortgagee may determine in Mortgagees sole discretion.
4.9 Mechanics Liens. Mortgagor will keep the Property free and clear of all liens and claims of liens by contractors, subcontractors, mechanics, laborers, materialmen, and other such persons, and will cause any recorded statement of any such lien to be released of record or bonded off within sixty (60) days after the recording thereof. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, however, Mortgagor will not be deemed to be in default under this Section if and so long as Mortgagor (a) contests in good faith the validity or amount of any asserted lien and diligently prosecutes or defends an action appropriate to obtain a binding determination of the disputed matter, (b) provides Mortgagee with such security as Mortgagee may reasonably require to protect Mortgagee against all loss, damage and expense, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys fees, which Mortgagee might incur if the asserted lien is determined to be valid (which security may, at the option of Mortgagor, be in the form of a bond over such lien, provided that such bond either removes any such lien of record or prevents the filing of any such lien of record).
4.10 Defense of Actions. Mortgagor will defend, at Mortgagors expense, any action, proceeding or claim which affects any property encumbered hereby or any interest of Mortgagee in such property or in the Secured Obligations, and Mortgagor will indemnify and hold Mortgagee harmless from all loss, damage, cost, or expense, including attorneys fees, which Mortgagee may incur in connection therewith.
4.11 Expenses of Enforcement. Mortgagor will pay all costs and expenses, which Mortgagee may incur in connection with any effort or action (whether or not litigation or foreclosure is involved) to enforce or defend Mortgagees rights and remedies under any of the Loan Documents, including, but not limited to, all attorneys fees, appraisal fees, consultants fees, and other expenses incurred by Mortgagee in securing title to or possession of, and realizing upon, any security for the Secured Obligations. All such costs and expenses (together with interest thereon at the Default Rate from the date incurred) shall constitute part of the Secured Obligations, and may be included in the computation of the amount owed to Mortgagee for purposes of foreclosing or otherwise enforcing this Mortgage.
4.12 Financial Reports. Mortgagor shall furnish to Mortgagee (a) within ninety (90) days following the end of each fiscal year of Mortgagor, Mortgagors quarterly and annual operating statements for the Property as of the end of and for the preceding quarter and fiscal year, as applicable, in each case prepared against the budget for such fiscal year, as may be applicable, (b) contemporaneously with the delivery of each of such operating statements of the Property, a rent roll certified, signed and dated by Mortgagor detailing the names of all tenants under the Leases, the portion of the improvements on the Property occupied by each tenant, the rent and any other charges payable under each Lease and the term of each Lease, (c) the annual balance sheet and profit and loss statement of Mortgagor and an annual balance sheet of each Guarantor and (d) the federal and state tax returns of each Guarantor not later than the date that is ten (10) days following the date that such federal and state tax returns are filed.
The financial statements and reports described in (a) and (c) above shall be in such form and in such detail as Mortgagee may require, shall be prepared on a tax basis (with respect to Mortgagor only) and shall be certified as true and correct by Mortgagor or each Guarantor, as may be applicable (or if required by Mortgagee, after the occurrence of an Event of Default, by an independent certified public accountant acceptable to Mortgagee). Mortgagor shall file and pay its annual tax returns and taxes in a timely manner. Mortgagor shall also furnish or cause to be furnished to Mortgagee within forty-five (45) after Mortgagees request, any other financial reports or statements of Mortgagor, including, without limitation, balance sheets, profit and loss statements, tax returns (within fifteen (15) days after filing with the applicable governmental authority), other financial statements, and certified rent rolls, required under any of the Loan Documents, requested by any regulatory or governmental authority exercising jurisdiction over Mortgagee, certified as true and correct by Mortgagor. Following the occurrence of any Event of Default, Mortgagor shall deliver to Mortgagee the items required in (a) and (b) above on a monthly basis. Mortgagors financial statements will be prepared by Shapiro, Goldstein and Moses or Kimmel Blau or a reasonable comparable firm selected by Mortgagor, and reasonably approved by Mortgagee.
4.13 Priority of Leases. To the extent Mortgagor has the right, under the terms of any Lease, to make such Lease subordinate to the lien hereof, Mortgagor will, at Mortgagees request and Mortgagors expense, take such action as may be reasonably required to effect such subordination. Conversely, Mortgagor will, at Mortgagees request and Mortgagors expense, take such action as may be necessary to subordinate the lien hereof to any future Lease designated by Mortgagee. The standard form of Lease used by Mortgagor shall provide that the Lease is subject and subordinate to the Mortgage and all future mortgages affecting the Property. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, however, Mortgagee shall provide an SNDA, in Mortgagees standard form, for each Lease that does not require Mortgagees approval under this Mortgage or that has been approved by Mortgagee; provided, however, that if any tenant under any such Lease requests a different form of such an agreement or modifications to Mortgagees standard form of such agreement, then Mortgagee shall use commercially reasonable efforts to negotiate a form of such an agreement that is mutually acceptable to Mortgagee and such tenant. In no event, however, shall Mortgagee be required to enter into a form of such agreement that is not commercially reasonably acceptable to Mortgagee.
4.14 Inventories; Assembly of Chattels. Mortgagor shall, from time to time at request of Mortgagee, deliver to Mortgagee a current inventory of the Chattels and the Intangible Personalty, in such detail as Mortgagee may require. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default hereunder, Mortgagor will at Mortgagees request assemble the Chattels and make them available to Mortgagee at any place designated by Mortgagee which is reasonably convenient to both parties.
4.15 Compliance with Laws, Existence, Etc. (a) Mortgagor shall comply in all material respects with all applicable laws, rules, regulations and orders and other governmental or quasi-governmental requirements and private covenants, such compliance to include, without limitation, maintaining all Permits and paying before the same become delinquent all taxes, assessments and governmental charges imposed upon Mortgagor or the Property. Mortgagor shall maintain all Permits necessary or desirable for the operation, ownership, use, development, occupancy and maintenance of the Property for its current use, and without limiting this covenant of Mortgagor, Mortgagor shall make application for renewals of any of the Permits prior to the expiration thereof.
Mortgagor shall, promptly after receiving notice thereof, notify Mortgagee of any litigation, action, proceeding or investigation against Mortgagor or any Mortgagor Control Person or the Property before any court, governmental or quasi-governmental arbitrator or other authority and, upon reasonable request of Mortgagee, from time to time provide Mortgagee with status or other information in respect thereof. Mortgagor and each Mortgagor Control Person shall do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve, renew and keep in full force and effect its existence as a limited liability company, corporation or other entity, as may be applicable, and to maintain its authorization to perform the obligations under the Loan Documents. Neither Mortgagor nor any Mortgagor Control Person shall amend or modify its organizational documents so as to contravene any of the Loan Documents or to prevent the observance of the obligations under the Loan Documents. Mortgagor and each Mortgagor Control Person shall comply in material respects with all applicable laws, rules, regulations and orders and other governmental or quasi-governmental requirements, and shall obtain all authorizations, approvals and consents from, and shall make all notices and filings with, any court, governmental, authority or regulatory body, in respect of its right and ability to perform, or cause the performance of, the obligations under the Loan Documents. Mortgagor shall maintain its status as non-foreign person within the meaning of Sections 1445 and 7701 of the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the regulations issued thereunder.
(b) Right to Contest . Notwithstanding any other provision of this Mortgage, Mortgagor will not be deemed to be in default solely by reason of Mortgagors failure to comply with any applicable law, rule, regulation or order so long as, in Mortgagees judgment, each of the following conditions is satisfied:
(i) Mortgagor is engaged in and diligently pursuing in good faith administrative or judicial proceedings appropriate to contest the validity or applicability of such law, rule, regulation or order; and
(ii) Noncompliance with any such law, rule, regulation or order will not result in the loss or forfeiture of any property encumbered hereby or any interest of Mortgagee therein or result in any fines or other punitive actions or any loss or impairment of insurance coverage; and
(iii) Mortgagor deposits with Mortgagee, as security for any payment or performance which may ultimately be required, a sum equal to the amount of any fine, assessment or charge plus the interest, penalties, and other costs which Mortgagee reasonably estimates are likely to become payable if Mortgagors contest is unsuccessful.
If Mortgagee determines that any one or more of such conditions is not satisfied or is no longer satisfied, then Mortgagor shall comply with the law, rule, regulation or order in question, within thirty (30) days after Mortgagee gives notice of such determination.
4.16 Records and Books of Account. Mortgagor shall keep accurate and complete records and books of account, in which complete entries will be made, reflecting all financial transactions relating to the Property.

Mortgagor will also, within ten (10) days after any request by Mortgagee, deliver to Mortgagee a signed and acknowledged statement certifying to Mortgagee, or to any proposed transferee of the Secured Obligations, (a) the balance of principal, interest, and other sums then outstanding under the Note and the other Loan Documents and (b) whether Mortgagor claims to have any offsets or defenses with respect to the Secured Obligations and, if so, the nature of such offsets or defenses.
4.20 Costs of Closing. Mortgagor shall on demand pay directly or reimburse Mortgagee for any costs or expenses reasonably incurred in connection with the closing of the Loan, including, but not limited to, fees of counsel for Mortgagee and costs and expenses for which invoices were not available at the closing of such loan, or costs and expenses which are incurred by Mortgagee after such closing. All such costs and expenses (together with interest thereon at the Default Rate from the date of demand by Mortgagee) shall constitute a part of the Secured Obligations, and may be included in the computation of the amount owed to Mortgagee for purposes of foreclosing or otherwise enforcing this Mortgage.
4.21 Fund for Electronic Transfer. All monthly payments of principal and interest on the Note, escrow deposits and other amounts due under this Mortgage or the other Loan Documents shall be made by Mortgagor by electronic funds transfer from a bank account established and maintained by Mortgagor for such purpose.

Any substitute or replacement Property Manager or any other change in Property Manager shall be subject to the prior written consent of Mortgagee in its sole discretion.
Mortgagor shall not permit any amendment to or modification of any Management Agreement, or management of the Property by any Person other than Mortgagor or Property Manager, without the prior written consent of Mortgagee. Any such Property Manager shall execute a Subordination Agreement in respect of its Management Agreement in form and substance satisfactory to Mortgagee.
4.24 Cash Management Lockbox.
(a) At or prior to the closing of the Loan, Mortgagee and Mortgagor shall enter into the Cash Management Agreement, pursuant to which Mortgagor and Mortgagee shall establish a lockbox account (Lockbox Account) into which all proceeds and revenues from the Property will be deposited, and a cash collateral account (Cash Collateral Account), into which such proceeds and revenues may be swept pursuant to Section 4.24(f) below, at a bank (the Lockbox Bank) selected by Mortgagee, but reasonably acceptable to Mortgagor.
(b) Mortgagor shall, or shall cause each tenant at the Property and all other persons and/or entities that make payments in respect of the Property to, remit all amounts due with respect to the Property directly to a lockbox maintained by the Lockbox Bank or to wire such amounts directly into the Lockbox Account. Mortgagor and the Property Manager shall promptly deposit into the Lockbox Account any checks or payments they receive from time to time, notwithstanding such instructions to the tenants and such other person and/or entities, and Mortgagor and Property Manager shall hold any such checks or payments in trust for the benefit of Mortgagee until such checks or amounts are deposited into the Lockbox Account.
(c) The Lockbox Bank and the Servicer retained by Mortgagee to service the Loan shall be authorized and empowered to endorse any and all checks from tenants solely for deposit into the Lockbox Account.
(d) The Lockbox Account and the Cash Collateral Account shall be in the name of Mortgagee or Servicer, as secured party (or agent for secured party), and shall be under the sole dominion and control of Mortgagee. Mortgagor shall grant Mortgagee a first priority security interest in the Lockbox Account and Cash Collateral Account and shall take all actions requested by Mortgagee to perfect such security interest.
(e) Amounts on deposit in the Lockbox Account shall be swept daily into an operating account (the Operating Account ) maintained by Mortgagor unless and until Servicer receives notice from Mortgagee that a Triggering Event (as defined below) has occurred, in which event the cash flow sweep described in Section 4.24(f) below shall apply.
(f) Upon the occurrence of any Triggering Event, Mortgagee, at its option, may cause Servicer to daily sweep 100% of all proceeds and revenues from the Property in the Lockbox Account into the Cash Collateral Account, and Mortgagee shall apply the same, to principal, interest and/or any other amounts due Mortgagee under the Loan Documents and to the costs and expenses of the operation and maintenance of the Property in such order as Mortgagee shall elect. Each of the following shall constitute a Triggering Event: (i) a Default under, and as defined in, the Loan Documents; (ii) an Event of Default under, and as defined in, the Loan Documents; or (iii) the Trigger Event Debt Service Coverage Ratio shall be less than 1.20 to 1.00.
(g) With respect to the first two (2) Triggering Events only, following the cure of any Default or Event of Default (that is accepted by Mortgagee in its sole discretion) with respect to which Mortgagee has notified Servicer that a Triggering Event has occurred or provided that the Property and the Additional Properties have achieved a Trigger Event Debt Service Coverage Ratio of at least 1.20 to 1.00, for two (2) consecutive quarters, as applicable, and after Mortgagee has applied all proceeds and revenues as described above, Mortgagee will release all excess amounts remaining in the Cash Collateral Account to Mortgagor, and Servicer will resume sweeping proceeds from the Lockbox Account into the Operating Account as provided in Section 4.24(e) above. For the avoidance of doubt, Mortgagor shall have no right to cure a Triggering Event following the second Triggering Event and any subsequent Triggering Event shall continue until such time as all principal, interest and all other amounts due and payable to Mortgagee under this Mortgage and the other Loan Documents have been paid or repaid in full, as applicable.
4.25 Single Purpose Entity. Mortgagor shall at all times be a Single Purpose Entity.
4.26 General Indemnity.

Any submission by Mortgagor for Mortgagees consent to a Lease or modification thereof shall be accompanied by a copy of such Lease or modification, a Lease abstract, a then-current rent roll for the Property, year-to-date and prior year operating statements for the Property and a cover letter requesting Mortgagees consent which contains a signature line on which Mortgagee may evidence its consent to such Lease or modification.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 5.3 , Mortgagor shall have the right to enter into Safe-Harbor Leases (as hereinafter defined) without Mortgagees prior written consent. A Safe-Harbor Lease shall mean any proposed market Lease that meets the following criteria: (A) the base rent payable under such proposed Lease is not less than the base rent being paid being paid by the tenant occupying the space as of the date of this Mortgage; (B) the rentable area to be demised pursuant to such proposed Lease which, when combined with any other space in the Property leased to affiliated entities of the tenant under such proposed Lease, is less than 10,000 square feet, (C) such proposed Lease shall be for a term of no less than three (3) years and no greater than ten (10) years including any tenants extension options, and (D) such proposed Lease shall satisfy the additional leasing guidelines set forth below:

(ii) For the avoidance of doubt, Mortgagor may (without the prior written consent of Mortgagee) enter into any modification or amendment of any Safe Harbor Leases so long as such Safe Harbor Lease shall remain a Safe Harbor Lease following such modification or amendment.
(iii) Mortgagee agrees that for any proposed Lease that does not qualify as a Safe Harbor Lease, for which Mortgagor is required to obtain Mortgagees consent thereto, Mortgagee will attempt to respond within ten (10) business days, and Mortgagees consent shall not be unreasonably withheld based upon market conditions. Mortgagor shall be permitted to submit a Lease summary term sheet, for purposes of obtaining Mortgagees approval, which sets out all of the economic terms of the proposed lease, as well as any deviations from Mortgagee approved standard form of lease.
Mortgagees consent will be contingent on tenant signing the Mortgagee-approved standard form of lease. Mortgagee will not be obligated to enter into an SNDA for any tenant for which Mortgagor is requesting Mortgagee lease approval until such time as an executed Lease that complies with the provisions of this Mortgage is delivered to Mortgagee. If Mortgagee has failed to respond to the written request for consent of a proposed Lease after five (5) business days after its receipt thereof, together with any additional information that Mortgagee may reasonably require to evaluate such proposed Lease, and Mortgagor has provided a subsequent five (5) business days written notice to Mortgagee requesting consent, each notice marked with a legend in bold capital letters stating: MORTGAGEE SHALL BE DEEMED TO HAVE CONSENTED TO THE MATTER CONTAINED HEREIN IF IT FAILS TO RESPOND TO THIS REQUEST FOR CONSENT WITHIN 10/5 (as applicable) BUSINESS DAYS AFTER THE DATE HEREOF, then Mortgagee shall be deemed to have consented to the same.

(i) The Principals, any lineal descendant of any Principal, any spouse of any Principal or any such lineal descendant, and/or one or more of or any combination of the foregoing, continue to be in control and be the managers or managing members of the Borrowers, and the Principals, any lineal descendant of any Principal, any spouse of any Principal or any such lineal descendant, any trust for the benefit of one or more of the foregoing, any other entity wholly owned by one or more of the foregoing, and/or one or more of or any combination of the foregoing, continue to own, directly or indirectly, not less than twenty percent (20%) of the ownership interests in the Borrowers;
(ii) There is no Event of Default at the time of such transfer;
(iii) If a change in the Property Manager for the Property (not a change in the manager or managing member of Mortgagor) will result from such transfer, Mortgagor shall enter into a Management Agreement with a Property Manager that has reasonably satisfactory experience operating and leasing property similar to the Property and that has a term no greater than one (1) year, may be cancelled on 30-days written notice (without cause and without any cancellation fee or charge), and which provides that the Property Manager shall subordinate its fees to the payment of the Loan, and otherwise complies with the terms of the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, Section 4.23 hereof);
(iv) Such Principal shall transfer an equal percentage of such Principals ownership interest in each of the other Borrowers such that each of the Principals percentage ownership interests of each of the Borrowers (including, without limitation, Mortgagor) shall be identical in respect of each other Borrower (including, without limitation, Mortgagor) both prior to and following any such transfer;
(v) At least thirty (30) days prior to such transfer (except in the event of death), Mortgagor shall provide Mortgagee with a certificate signed by all of the managers or managing members of Mortgagor certifying that no Event of Default exists under the Loan Documents and that the transferee and Mortgagor are in compliance with clauses (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) above, which certificate shall attach written notice to Mortgagee of all of the material provisions of such transfer including, without limitation, the proposed date of such transfer, and the name and address of the proposed parties to such transfer, their relationship to Paul Cooper, Jeffrey Ravetz and Louis Sheinker and a copy of the transfer documents, a copy of the organizational documents of the entities affected by such transfer, as amended, a revised structure chart showing the ownership interests of each of the Borrowers following such transfer and any other information that Mortgagee may reasonably request. If any of the representations in such certificate prove to be untrue, the same shall be an Event of Default under each of the Loan Documents;
(vi) Mortgagor shall provide Mortgagee with reasonable evidence that such transfer shall not affect or impair Mortgagees security and rights under the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, the Additional Loan Documents), or other guaranty or undertaking relating to the Secured Obligations, including without limitation, the Guaranty Agreement and the Environmental Indemnity Agreement;
(vii) Paul Cooper, Jeffrey Ravetz and Louis Sheinker, if living, shall remain Guarantors, subject to the provisions of Section 4.32 , and if pursuant to Section 4.32 , any one or more of such Guarantors has been replaced, such replacement Guarantor shall remain a Guarantor subject to the provisions of Section 4.32 ; and
(viii) Mortgagor shall pay for all of Mortgagees costs and expenses associated with such transfer, including without limitation, attorneys fees charged by Mortgagees staff counsel or special counsel, whether or not such transfer is consummated.
Notwithstanding anything to the foregoing, transfers of title or interests (including membership interests) under any trust or will or testament or applicable laws of descent or intestacy shall be permitted so long as the provisions of paragraph (i) of this Section 5.4(b) are satisfied. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, membership interest in Mortgagor may be freely transferred between the Principals, any lineal descendent of any Principals, any spouse of any Principal or any such lineal descendent, and/or one or more of any combination of the foregoing, without Mortgagees consent, (i) provided any of the Principals individually or all of the Principals together continue to be in control and manage each of the Borrowers, and (ii) the Principals, either individually or together, shall maintain a minimum of 5% ownership interest in each of the Borrowers.
5.5 Further Encumbrance of Chattels. Mortgagor will neither create nor permit any lien, security interest or encumbrance against the Chattels or Intangible Personalty or any part thereof or interest therein, other than the liens and security interests created by the Loan Documents, without the prior written consent of Mortgagee, which may be withheld for any reason.
5.6 Assessments Against the Property. Unless required by law, Mortgagor will not, without the prior written approval of Mortgagee, which may not be unreasonably withheld, consent to the creation of any so-called special districts, special improvement districts, benefit assessment districts or similar districts, or any other body or entity of any type, or unless required by law, consent to the occurrence of any other event, that would or might result in the imposition of any additional taxes, assessments or other monetary obligations or burdens on the Property, and this provision shall serve as RECORD NOTICE to any such district or districts or any governmental entity under whose authority such district or districts exist or are being formed that, should Mortgagor or any other Person include all or any portion of the Property in such district or districts, whether formed or in the process of formation, without first obtaining Mortgagees express written consent, the rights of Mortgagee in the Property pursuant to this Mortgage or following any foreclosure of this Mortgage, and the rights of any Person to whom Mortgagee might transfer the Property following a foreclosure of this Mortgage, shall be senior and superior to any taxes, charges, fees, assessments or other impositions of any kind or nature whatsoever, or liens (whether statutory, contractual or otherwise) levied or imposed, or to be levied or imposed, upon the Property or any portion thereof as a result of inclusion of the Property in such district or districts.
5.7 Transfer or Removal of Chattels or Intangible Personalty. Mortgagor will not sell, transfer or remove from the Property all or any part of the Chattels, unless the items sold, transferred, or removed are simultaneously replaced with similar items of equal or greater value.
5.8 Change of Name. Mortgagor will not change the name under which Mortgagor does business, or adopt or begin doing business under any other name or assumed or trade name, without first notifying Mortgagee of Mortgagors intention to do so and delivering to Mortgagee such executed modifications or supplements to this Mortgage (and to any financing statement which may be filed in connection herewith) as Mortgagee may require.
5.9 Improper Use of the Property or Chattels. Mortgagor will not use the Property or the Chattels for any purpose or in any manner which violates any applicable law, ordinance, or other governmental requirement, the requirements or conditions of any insurance policy, or any private covenant.
5.10 ERISA. Mortgagor shall not engage in any transaction which would cause the Note (or the exercise by Mortgagee of any of its rights under the Loan Documents) to be a non-exempt, prohibited transaction under ERISA (including for this purpose the parallel provisions of Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended), or otherwise result in Mortgagee being deemed in violation of any applicable provisions of ERISA. Mortgagor shall indemnify, protect, defend, and hold Mortgagee harmless from and against any and all losses, liabilities, damages, claims, judgments, costs, and expenses (including, without limitation attorneys fees and costs incurred in the investigation, defense, and settlement of claims and in obtaining any individual ERISA exemption or state administrative exception that may be required, in Mortgagees sole and absolute discretion) that Mortgagee may incur, directly or indirectly, as the result of the breach by Mortgagor of any warranty or representation set forth in Section 3.3(bb) hereof or the breach by Mortgagor of any covenant contained in this Section. This indemnity shall survive any termination, satisfaction or foreclosure of this Mortgage and shall not be subject to the limitation on personal liability described in the Note.

MORTGAGEES REMEDIES
Immediately upon or any time that an Event of Default exists, Mortgagee may exercise any remedy available at law or in equity, including, but not limited to, those listed below and those listed in the other Loan Documents, in such sequence or combination as Mortgagee may determine in Mortgagees sole discretion:
7.1 Performance of Defaulted Obligations. Mortgagee may make any payment or perform any other obligation under the Loan Documents which either Mortgagor or any Guarantor has failed to make or perform, and Mortgagor hereby irrevocably appoints Mortgagee as the true and lawful attorney-in-fact for Mortgagor to make any such payment and perform any such obligation in the name of Mortgagor. All payments made and expenses (including attorneys fees) incurred by Mortgagee in this connection, together with interest thereon at the Default Rate from the date paid or incurred until repaid, will be part of the Secured Obligations and will be immediately due and payable by Mortgagor to Mortgagee. In lieu of advancing Mortgagees own funds for such purposes, Mortgagee may use any funds of Mortgagor which may be in Mortgagees possession, including, but not limited to, insurance or condemnation proceeds and amounts deposited for taxes, insurance premiums or other purposes.
7.2 Specific Performance and Injunctive Relief. Notwithstanding the availability of legal remedies, Mortgagee will be entitled to obtain specific performance, mandatory or prohibitory injunctive relief, or other equitable relief requiring Mortgagor or Guarantors to cure or refrain from repeating any Default.
7.3 Acceleration of Secured Obligations. Mortgagee may, without notice or demand, declare all of the Secured Obligations immediately due and payable in full.
7.4 Suit for Monetary Relief. Subject to the non-recourse provisions of the Note, with or without accelerating the maturity of the Secured Obligations, Mortgagee may sue from time to time for any payment due under any of the Loan Documents, or for money damages resulting from Mortgagors default under any of the Loan Documents.
7.5 Possession of the Property. To the extent permitted by law, Mortgagee may enter and take possession of the Property without seeking or obtaining the appointment of a receiver, may employ a managing agent for the Property, and may lease or rent all or any part of the Property, either in Mortgagees name or in the name of Mortgagor, and may collect the rents, issues, and profits of the Property. Any revenues collected by Mortgagee under this Section will be applied first toward payment of all expenses (including attorneys fees) incurred by Mortgagee, together with interest thereon at the Default Rate from the date incurred until repaid, and the balance, if any, will be applied against the Secured Obligations in such order and manner as Mortgagee may elect in its sole discretion.
7.6 Enforcement of Security Interests. Mortgagee may exercise all rights of a secured party under the Code with respect to the Chattels and the Intangible Personalty, including but not limited to taking possession of, holding, and selling the Chattels and enforcing or otherwise realizing upon any accounts and general intangibles. Any requirement for reasonable notice of the time and place of any public sale, or of the time after which any private sale or other disposition is to be made, will be satisfied by Mortgagees giving of such notice to Mortgagor at least five (5) days prior to the time of any public sale or the time after which any private sale or other intended disposition is to be made.
7.7 Foreclosure Against the Property.
(a) Mortgagee may:
(i) institute proceedings for the complete foreclosure of this Mortgage, in which case the Property may be sold for cash or credit in one or more parcels, and in such order as Mortgagee shall determine;
(ii) with or without entry and, to the extent permitted, and pursuant to the procedures provided by, applicable law, institute proceedings for the partial foreclosure of this Mortgage for the portion of the Secured Obligations then due and payable, subject to the lien of this Mortgage continuing unimpaired and without loss of priority so as to secure the balance of the Secured Obligations not then due; and
(iii) sell the Property or any part thereof and all estate, claim, demand, right, title and interest of Mortgagor therein, pursuant to power of sale or otherwise, at one or more sales, in whole or in parcels, at such time and place, upon such terms and after such notice thereof as may be required or permitted by law, and in the event of a sale, by foreclosure or otherwise, of less than all of the Property, this Mortgage shall continue as a lien on the remaining portion of the Property.
Any real estate sold pursuant to any writ of execution issued on a judgment obtained by virtue of the Note or this Mortgage, may be sold in one parcel, as an entirety, or in such parcels, and in such manner or order as Mortgagee, in its sole discretion may elect.
(b) All fees, costs and expenses of any kind incurred by Mortgagee in connection with foreclosure of this Mortgage, including, without limitation, the costs of any appraisals of the Property obtained by Mortgagee, the cost of any title reports or abstracts, all costs of any receivership for the Property advanced by Mortgagee, and all attorneys and consultants fees and expenses incurred by Mortgagee, shall constitute a part of the Secured Obligations and may be included as part of the amount owing from Mortgagor to Mortgagee at any foreclosure sale.
(c) The proceeds of any sale under this Section shall be applied:
First : To the payment of the costs and expenses of any such sale, including, without limitation, compensation to Mortgagee, its agents and counsel, and of any judicial proceedings, including, without limitation, the costs and legal expenses of Mortgagee in foreclosing or otherwise enforcing this Mortgage, and of all expenses, liabilities and advances made or incurred by Mortgagee under this Mortgage, together with interest at the Default Rate, and all taxes or assessments, except any taxes, assessments or other charges subject to which the Property shall have been sold.
Second : To the payment of the whole amount of the Secured Obligations then due, owing or unpaid, with interest on the unpaid Secured Obligations at the Default Rate from and after the happening of any Event of Default until the same is paid.
Third : To the payment of any other sums required to be paid by Mortgagor pursuant to any provision of this Mortgage, the Note and all other Loan Documents.
Fourth : To the payment of the surplus, if any, to whosoever may be lawfully entitled to receive the same.
Mortgagee and any receiver or custodian of the Property or any part thereof shall be liable to account for only those rents, issues and profits actually received by it.
(d) Mortgagee may adjourn from time to time any sale to be made under or by virtue of this Mortgage by announcement at the time and place appointed for such sale or for such adjourned sale or sales; and, except as otherwise provided by any applicable provision of law, Mortgagee, without further notice or publication, may make such sale at the time and place to which the same shall be so adjourned.
(e) Upon the completion of any sale or sales made by Mortgagee under or by virtue of this Section 7.7 , Mortgagee, or any officer of any court empowered to do so, shall execute and deliver to the accepted purchaser or purchasers a good and sufficient instrument, or good and sufficient instruments, granting, conveying, assigning and transferring all estate, right, title and interest in and to the property and rights sold. Mortgagee is hereby irrevocably appointed the true and lawful attorney-in-fact of Mortgagor (coupled with an interest), in its name and stead, to make all necessary conveyances, assignments, transfers and deliveries of the Property and rights so sold and for that purpose Mortgagee may execute all necessary instruments of conveyance, assignment, transfer and delivery, and may substitute one or more persons or entities with like power, Mortgagor hereby ratifying and confirming all that its said attorney or such substitute or substitutes shall lawfully do by virtue hereof. Nevertheless, Mortgagor, if so requested by Mortgagee, shall ratify and confirm any such sale or sales by executing and delivering to Mortgagee or to such purchaser or purchasers all such instruments as may be advisable, in the judgment of Mortgagee, for such purpose, and as may be designated in such request. Any such sale or sales made under or by virtue of this Section 7.7 , whether made under the power of sale herein granted or under or by virtue of judicial proceedings or of a judgment or decree of foreclosure and sale, shall operate to divest all the estate, right, title, interest, claim and demand whatsoever, whether at law or in equity, of Mortgagor in and to the properties and rights so sold, and shall be a perpetual bar both at law and in equity against Mortgagor and against any and all persons or entities claiming or who may claim the same, or any part thereof, either from, through or under Mortgagor.
(f) Upon sale made under or by virtue of this Section 7.7 (whether made under the power of sale herein granted or under or by virtue of judicial proceedings or of a judgment or decree of foreclosure and sale), Mortgagee may bid for and acquire the Property or any part thereof and in lieu of paying cash therefor may take settlement for the purchase price by crediting upon the Secured Obligations the net sale price after deducting therefrom the expenses of the sale and the costs of the action and any other sums which Mortgagee is authorized to deduct under this Mortgage.
(g) Subject to the provisions of Section 18 of the Note and Section 9.21 of this Mortgage, the obligation of this Mortgage and of the Note shall continue until the Secured Obligations are paid in full notwithstanding any action or actions or partial foreclosure which may be brought to recover any amount or amounts for installments of principal, interest, taxes, assessments, water and sewer charges, rents and rates or insurance or other sums or charges due and payable under the provisions of this Mortgage.
(h) No recovery of any judgment by Mortgagee and no levy of an execution under any judgment upon the Property or upon any other property of Mortgagor shall affect in any manner or to any extent, the lien of this Mortgage upon the Property or any part thereof, or any liens, rights, powers or remedies of Mortgagee hereunder, but such liens, rights, powers and remedies of Mortgagee shall continue unimpaired as before, and notwithstanding any statutory rate of interest applicable with respect to judgments, after the entering of execution of any judgment, the Secured Obligations shall bear interest at the Default Rate until the Secured Obligations shall have been paid in full.
(i) In the event of a foreclosure of this Mortgage or the succession by Mortgagee to the interests of Mortgagor hereunder, the purchaser of the Property or such successor shall succeed to all rights of Mortgagor, including any right to proceeds of insurance and to unearned premiums, and in and to all policies or certificates of insurance assigned and delivered to Mortgagee pursuant to this Mortgage.
(j) Any assignee of this Mortgage and the Note shall take the same free and clear of all offsets, counterclaims and defenses of any nature (except for payments actually made) whatsoever which Mortgagor may have against any assignor of this Mortgage and the Note and no such offset, counterclaim or defense (except for payments actually made) shall be interposed or asserted by Mortgagor in any action or proceeding brought by any such assignee upon this Mortgage and/or the Note and any such right to interpose or assert any such offset, counterclaim or defense in any such action or proceeding is hereby expressly waived by Mortgagor.
(k) In any action or proceeding to foreclose this Mortgage, or to recover or collect the Secured Obligations, the provisions of law respecting the recovery of costs, disbursements and allowances shall also be applicable.
(l) Nothing in this Section dealing with foreclosure procedures or specifying particular actions to be taken by Mortgagee shall be deemed to contradict or add to the requirements and procedures now or hereafter specified by Connecticut law, and any such inconsistency shall be resolved in favor of Connecticut law applicable at the time of foreclosure.
7.8 Appointment of Receiver. To the extent permitted by law, Mortgagee shall be entitled, as a matter of absolute right and without regard to the value of any security for the Secured Obligations or the solvency of any person liable therefor, to the appointment of a receiver for the Property upon ex-parte application to any court of competent jurisdiction. Mortgagor waives any right to any hearing or notice of hearing prior to the appointment of a receiver. Such receiver and its agents shall be empowered, but shall not be obligated, to (a) take possession of the Property and any businesses conducted by Mortgagor or any other person thereon and any business assets used in connection therewith, (b) exclude Mortgagor and Mortgagors agents, servants, and employees from the Property, (c) collect the rents, issues, profits, and income therefrom, (d) complete any construction which may be in progress, (e) do such maintenance and make such repairs and alterations as the receiver deems necessary, (f) use all stores of materials, supplies, and maintenance equipment on the Property and replace such items at the expense of the receivership estate, (g) pay all taxes and assessments against the Property and the Chattels, all premiums for insurance thereon, all utility and other operating expenses, and all sums due under any prior or subsequent encumbrance, and (h) generally do anything which Mortgagor could legally do if Mortgagor were in possession of the Property.
All expenses incurred by the receiver or its agents shall constitute a part of the Secured Obligations. Any revenues collected by the receiver shall be applied first to the expenses of the receivership, including attorneys fees incurred by the receiver and by Mortgagee, together with interest thereon at the Default Rate from the date incurred until repaid, and the balance shall be applied toward the Secured Obligations in such order or manner as Mortgagee may in its sole discretion elect or in such other manner as the court may direct. Unless sooner terminated with the express consent of Mortgagee, any such receivership will continue until the Secured Obligations have been discharged in full, or until title to the Property has passed after foreclosure sale and all applicable periods of redemption have expired.
7.9 Right to Make Repairs, Improvements. Should any part of the Property come into the possession of Mortgagee, after an Event of Default, Mortgagee may, but shall not be obligated, to use, operate, and/or make repairs, alterations, additions and improvements to the Property for the purpose of preserving it or its value. Mortgagor covenants to promptly reimburse and pay to Mortgagee, at the place where the Note is payable, or at such other place as may be designated by Mortgagee in writing, the amount of all reasonable expenses (including the cost of any insurance, taxes, or other charges) incurred by Mortgagee in connection with its custody, preservation, use or operation of the Property, together with interest thereon from the date incurred by Mortgagee at the Default Rate, and all such expenses, costs, taxes, interest, and other charges shall be a part of the Secured Obligations. It is agreed, however, except to the extent arising out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Mortgagee or its agents, that the risk of accidental loss or damage to the Property is undertaken by Mortgagor and Mortgagee shall have no liability whatsoever for decline in value of the Property, for failure to obtain or maintain insurance, or for failure to determine whether any insurance ever in force is adequate as to amount or as to the risks insured.
7.10 Surrender of Insurance. Mortgagee may surrender the insurance policies maintained pursuant to the terms hereof, or any part thereof, and receive and apply the unearned premiums as a credit on the Secured Obligations and, in connection therewith, Mortgagor hereby appoints Mortgagee (or any officer of Mortgagee), as the true and lawful agent and attorney-in-fact for Mortgagor (with full powers of substitution), which power of attorney shall be deemed to be a power coupled with an interest and therefore irrevocable, to collect such premiums.
7.11 Prima Facie Evidence. Mortgagor agrees that, in any assignments, deeds, bills of sale, notices of sale, or postings, given by Mortgagee, any and all statements of fact or other recitals therein made as to the identity of Mortgagee, or as to the occurrence or existence of any Event of Default, or as to the acceleration of the maturity of the Secured Obligations, or as to the request to sell, posting of notice of sale, notice of sale, time, place, terms and manner of sale and receipt, distribution and application of the money realized therefrom, and without being limited by the foregoing, as to any other act or thing having been duly done by Mortgagee, shall be taken by all courts of law and equity as prima facie evidence that such statements or recitals state facts and are without further question to be so accepted, and Mortgagor does hereby ratify and confirm any and all acts that Mortgagee may lawfully do by virtue hereof.
7.12 Rights to Funds Held Pursuant to the Reserve Agreements. Mortgagee may, in accordance with the Reserve Agreements, apply all or any portion of the funds by Mortgagee or its Servicer pursuant to the Reserve Agreements, or any other reserve or escrow account, to any and all of the Secured Obligations in such order of priority as Mortgagee shall elect in its sole and absolute discretion.
7.13 Remedies Under Other Loan Documents. Mortgagee may exercise any right or remedy provided for in any of the other Loan Documents, including, without limitation, the Additional Loan Documents.
ARTICLE 8
ASSIGNMENT OF LEASES AND RENTS
8.1 Assignment of Leases and Rents. Mortgagor hereby unconditionally and absolutely grants, transfers and assigns unto Mortgagee all Rents now or hereafter due or payable for the occupancy or use of the Property, and all Leases, whether written or oral, with all security therefor, including all guaranties thereof, now or hereafter affecting the Property; reserving unto Mortgagor, however, a license to collect and retain such Rents and all security for the Leases prior to the occurrence of any Event of Default. Such license shall be revocable by Mortgagee without notice to Mortgagor at any time that an Event of Default exists. Mortgagor represents that the Rents and the Leases have not been heretofore sold, assigned, transferred or set over by any instrument now in force and will not at any time during the life of this assignment be sold, assigned, transferred or set over by Mortgagor or by any person or persons whomsoever; and Mortgagor has good right to sell, assign, transfer and set over the same and to grant to and confer upon Mortgagee the rights, interest, powers and authorities herein granted and conferred. Failure of Mortgagee at any time or from time to time to enforce the assignment of Rents and Leases under this Section shall not in any manner prevent its subsequent enforcement, and Mortgagee is not obligated to collect anything hereunder, but is accountable only for sums actually collected.
8.2 Further Assignments. Mortgagor shall give Mortgagee at any time upon demand any further or additional forms of assignment or transfer of such Rents, Leases and security as may be reasonably requested by Mortgagee, and shall deliver to Mortgagee executed copies of all such Leases and security.
8.3 Application of Rents. Mortgagee shall be entitled to deduct and retain a just and reasonable compensation from monies received hereunder for its services or that of its agents in collecting such monies. Any monies received by Mortgagee hereunder may be applied when received from time to time in payment of any taxes, assessments or other liens affecting the Property regardless of the delinquency, such application to be in such order as Mortgagee may determine.
The acceptance of this Mortgage by Mortgagee or the exercise of any rights by it hereunder shall not be, or be construed to be, an affirmation by it of any Lease nor an assumption of any liability under any Lease.
8.4 Collection of Rents. Upon or at any time that an Event of Default exists, Mortgagee may declare all sums secured hereby immediately due and payable, and may, at its option, without notice, and whether or not the Secured Obligations shall have been declared due and payable, either in person or by agent, with or without bringing any action or proceeding, or by a receiver to be appointed by a court, (a) enter upon, take possession of, manage and operate the Property, or any part thereof (including without limitation making necessary repairs, alterations and improvements to the Property); (b) make, cancel, enforce or modify Leases (and any guaranties thereof); (c) obtain and evict tenants; (d) fix or modify Rents; (e) do any acts which Mortgagee deems reasonably proper to protect the security thereof and (f) either with or without taking possession of the Property, in its own name sue for or otherwise collect and receive such Rents, including those past due and unpaid. In connection with the foregoing, Mortgagee shall be entitled and empowered to employ attorneys, and management, rental and other agents in and about the Property and to effect the matters which Mortgagee is empowered to do, and in the event Mortgagee shall itself effect such matters, Mortgagee shall be entitled to charge and receive reasonable management, rental and other fees therefor as may be customary in the area in which the Property is located; and the reasonable fees, charges, costs and expenses of Mortgagee or such persons shall be additional Secured Obligations. Mortgagee may apply all funds collected as aforesaid, less costs and expenses of operation and collection, including reasonable attorneys and agents fees, charges, costs and expenses, as aforesaid, upon any Secured Obligations, and in such order as Mortgagee may determine. The entering upon and taking possession of the Property, the collection of such Rents and the application thereof as aforesaid shall not cure or waive any default or waive, modify or affect notice of default under the Note or this Mortgage or invalidate any act done pursuant to such notice.
8.5 Authority of Mortgagee. Any tenants or occupants of any part of the Property are hereby authorized to recognize the claims of Mortgagee hereunder without investigating the reason for any action taken by Mortgagee, or the validity or the amount of Secured Obligations owing to Mortgagee, or the existence of any default in the Note or this Mortgage, or under or by reason of this assignment of Rents and Leases, or the application to be made by Mortgagee of any amounts to be paid to Mortgagee. The sole signature of Mortgagee shall be sufficient for the exercise of any rights under this assignment and the sole receipt of Mortgagee for any sums received shall be a full discharge and release therefor to any such tenant or occupant of the Property. Checks for all or any part of the rentals collected under this assignment of Rents and Leases shall be drawn to the exclusive order of Mortgagee.
8.6 Indemnification of Mortgagee. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to obligate Mortgagee to perform or discharge any obligation, duty or liability of any lessor under any Lease of the Property, and Mortgagor shall and does hereby indemnify and hold Mortgagee harmless from any and all liability, loss or damage which Mortgagee may or might incur under any Lease or by reason of the assignment; and any and all such liability, loss or damage incurred by Mortgagee, together with the costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys fees, incurred by Mortgagee in defense of any claims or demands therefor (whether successful or not), shall be additional Secured Obligations, and Mortgagor shall reimburse Mortgagee therefor on demand.
ARTICLE 9
MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS
9.1 Time of the Essence. Time is of the essence with respect to all provisions of the Loan Documents.
9.2 Joint and Several Obligations. If Mortgagor is more than one person or entity, then: (a) all Persons comprising Mortgagor are jointly and severally liable for all of the Secured Obligations; (b) all representations, warranties, and covenants made by Mortgagor shall be deemed representations, warranties, and covenants of each of the Persons comprising Mortgagor; (c) any breach, Default or Event of Default by any of the Persons comprising Mortgagor hereunder shall be deemed to be a breach, Default, or Event of Default of Mortgagor; (d) any reference herein contained to the knowledge or awareness of Mortgagor shall mean the actual or constructive knowledge or awareness of the Guarantors; and (e) any event creating personal liability of any of the Persons comprising Mortgagor shall create personal liability for all such Persons.
9.3 Waiver of Homestead and Other Exemptions. To the extent permitted by law, Mortgagor hereby waives all rights to any homestead or other exemption to which Mortgagor would otherwise be entitled under any present or future constitutional, statutory, or other provision of applicable state or federal law. Mortgagor hereby waives any right it may have to require Mortgagee to marshal all or any portion of the security for the Secured Obligations. Notwithstanding the existence of interests in the Property, Chattels or Intangible Personalty other than that created by this Mortgage, and notwithstanding any other provision of this Mortgage, upon an Event of Default, to the extent permitted by applicable law, Mortgagee shall have the right, in Mortgagees sole discretion, to determine the order in which the Property, Chattels or Intangible Personalty shall be subjected to the remedies provided in this Mortgage and to determine the order in which all or any part of the Indebtedness secured by this Mortgage is satisfied from the proceeds realized upon the exercise of the remedies provided in this Mortgage.
9.4 Non Recourse; Exceptions to Non-Recourse. Except as expressly set forth in Section 18 of the Note and Section 9.21 of this Mortgage, the recourse of Mortgagee with respect to the obligations evidenced by the Note, this Mortgage and the other Loan Documents (except for the Guaranty and the Environmental Indemnity Agreement) shall be solely to the Property, Chattels and Intangible Personalty, and any other collateral given as security for the Note.
9.5 Rights and Remedies Cumulative. Mortgagees rights and remedies under each of the Loan Documents are cumulative of the rights and remedies available to Mortgagee under each of the other Loan Documents and those otherwise available to Mortgagee at law or in equity. No act of Mortgagee shall be construed as an election to proceed under any particular provision of any Loan Document to the exclusion of any other provision in the same or any other Loan Document, or as an election of remedies to the exclusion of any other remedy which may then or thereafter be available to Mortgagee.
9.6 No Implied Waivers. Mortgagee shall not be deemed to have waived any provision of any Loan Document unless such waiver is in writing and is signed by Mortgagee. Without limiting the generality of the preceding sentence, neither Mortgagees acceptance of any payment with knowledge of a Default by Mortgagor, nor any failure by Mortgagee to exercise any remedy following a Default by Mortgagor shall be deemed a waiver of such Default, and no waiver by Mortgagee of any particular Default on the part of Mortgagor shall be deemed a waiver of any other Default or of any similar Default in the future.
9.7 No Third Party Rights. No person shall be a third party beneficiary of any provision of any of the Loan Documents. All provisions of the Loan Documents favoring Mortgagee are intended solely for the benefit of Mortgagee, and no third party shall be entitled to assume or expect that Mortgagee will not waive or consent to modification of any such provision in Mortgagees sole discretion.
9.8 Preservation of Liability and Priority. Without affecting the liability of Mortgagor or of any other person (except a person expressly released in writing) for payment and performance of all of the Secured Obligations, and without affecting the rights of Mortgagee with respect to any security not expressly released in writing, and without impairing in any way the priority of this Mortgage over the interests of any person acquired or first evidenced by recording subsequent to the recording hereof, Mortgagee may, either before or after the maturity of the Note, and without notice or consent: (a) release any person liable for payment or performance of all or any part of the Secured Obligations; (b) make any agreement altering the terms of payment or performance of all or any of the Secured Obligations; (c) exercise or refrain from exercising, or waive, any right or remedy which Mortgagee may have under any of the Loan Documents; (d) accept additional security of any kind for any of the Secured Obligations; or (e) release or otherwise deal with any real or personal property securing the Secured Obligations. Any person acquiring or recording evidence of any interest of any nature in the Property, the Chattels, or the Intangible Personalty shall be deemed, by acquiring such interest or recording any evidence thereof, to have agreed and consented to any or all such actions by Mortgagee.
9.9 Subrogation of Mortgagee. Mortgagee shall be subrogated to the lien of any previous encumbrance discharged with funds advanced by Mortgagee under the Loan Documents, regardless of whether such previous encumbrance has been released of record.
9.10 Notices. Any notice, consent or approval required or permitted to be given by Mortgagor or Mortgagee under this Mortgage shall be in writing and will be deemed given (a) upon personal delivery, (b) on the first Business Day after receipted delivery to a courier service which guarantees next-business-day delivery, or (c) on the third Business Day after mailing, by registered or certified United States mail, postage prepaid, in any case to the appropriate party at its address set forth below:

Either party may change such partys address for notices or copies of notices by giving notice to the other party in accordance with this Section.
9.11 Defeasance. Upon payment and performance in full of all of the Secured Obligations, Mortgagee will, at the sole cost and expense of Mortgagor, execute and deliver to Mortgagor such documents as may be required to release this Mortgage of record or in accordance with Section 10.8 hereof, to assign this Mortgage as directed by Mortgagor.
9.12 Illegality. If any provision of this Mortgage is held to be illegal, invalid, or unenforceable under present or future laws effective during the term of this Mortgage, the legality, validity, and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Mortgage shall not be affected thereby, and in lieu of each such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision there shall be added automatically as a part of this Mortgage a provision as similar in terms to such illegal, invalid, or unenforceable provision as may be possible and be legal, valid, and enforceable. If the rights and liens created by this Mortgage shall be invalid or unenforceable as to any part of the Secured Obligations, then the unsecured portion of the Secured Obligations shall be completely paid prior to the payment of the remaining and secured portion of the Secured Obligations, and all payments made on the Secured Obligations shall be considered to have been paid on and applied first to the complete payment of the unsecured portion of the Secured Obligations.
9.13 Usury Savings Clause. It is expressly stipulated and agreed to be the intent of Mortgagee and Mortgagor at all times to comply with the applicable law governing the highest lawful interest rate. If the applicable law is ever judicially interpreted so as to render usurious any amount called for under the Note or under any of the other Loan Documents, or contracted for, charged, taken, reserved or received with respect to the loan evidenced thereby, or if acceleration of the maturity of the Note, any prepayment by Mortgagor, or any other circumstance whatsoever, results in Mortgagor having paid any interest in excess of that permitted by applicable law, then it is the express intent of Mortgagor and Mortgagee that all excess amounts theretofore collected by Mortgagee be credited on the principal balance of the Note (or, at Mortgagees option, paid over to Mortgagor), and the provisions of the Note and other Loan Documents immediately be deemed reformed and the amounts thereafter collectible hereunder and thereunder reduced, without the necessity of the execution of any new document, so as to comply with the applicable law, but so as to permit the recovery of the fullest amount otherwise called for hereunder and thereunder. The right to accelerate maturity of the Note does not include the right to accelerate any interest which has not otherwise accrued on the date of such acceleration, and Mortgagee does not intend to collect any unearned interest in the event of acceleration. All sums paid or agreed to be paid to Mortgagee for the use, forbearance or detention of the Secured Obligations evidenced hereby or by the Note shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread throughout the full term of such Secured Obligations until payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of such Secured Obligations does not exceed the maximum rate or amount of interest permitted under applicable law. The term applicable law as used herein shall mean any federal or state law applicable to the loan made by Mortgagee to Mortgagor evidenced by the Note.
9.14 Obligations Binding Upon Mortgagors Successors. This Mortgage is binding upon Mortgagor and Mortgagors successors and assigns, and shall inure to the benefit of Mortgagee, and its successors and assigns, and the provisions hereof shall likewise be covenants running with the land. The duties, covenants, conditions, obligations, and warranties of Mortgagor in this Mortgage shall be joint and several obligations of Mortgagor and Mortgagors successors and assigns.
9.15 Construction. All pronouns and any variations of pronouns herein shall be deemed to refer to the masculine, feminine, or neuter, singular or plural, as the identity of the parties may require. Whenever the terms herein are singular, the same shall be deemed to mean the plural, as the identity of the parties or the context requires. The term including shall mean including, without limitation. Each party hereto acknowledges that each party hereto and its respective counsel reviewed and revised this Mortgage and the other Loan Documents, and each party hereto agrees that any rule of construction to the effect that ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting party shall not apply in the interpretation of this Mortgage and the other Loan Documents.
9.16 Attorneys Fees. Any reference in this Mortgage to attorneys or counsel fees paid or incurred by Mortgagee shall be deemed to include paralegals fees and legal assistants fees. Moreover, wherever provision is made herein for payment of attorneys or counsels fees or expenses incurred by Mortgagee, such provision shall include but not be limited to, such fees or expenses incurred in any and all judicial, bankruptcy, reorganization, administrative, or other proceedings, including appellate proceedings, whether such fees or expenses arise before proceedings are commenced, during such proceedings or after entry of a final judgment.
9.17 Waiver and Agreement Regarding Prepayment.
(a) EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE EXPRESSLY PERMITTED HEREUNDER OR UNDER THE NOTE, MORTGAGOR HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE UNDER APPLICABLE LAW TO PREPAY THE NOTE, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, WITHOUT PREPAYMENT CHARGE, UPON ACCELERATION OF THE MATURITY DATE OF THE NOTE, AND AGREES THAT, EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE EXPRESSLY PERMITTED HEREUNDER OR UNDER THE NOTE, IF FOR ANY REASON A PREPAYMENT OF ALL OR ANY PART OF THE NOTE IS MADE, WHETHER VOLUNTARILY OR FOLLOWING ANY ACCELERATION OF THE MATURITY DATE OF THE NOTE BY MORTGAGEE ON ACCOUNT OF THE OCCURRENCE OF ANY EVENT OF DEFAULT ARISING FOR ANY REASON, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, AS A RESULT OF ANY PROHIBITED OR RESTRICTED TRANSFER, FURTHER ENCUMBRANCE OR DISPOSITION OF THE PROPERTY OR ANY PART THEREOF SECURING THE NOTE, THEN MORTGAGOR SHALL BE OBLIGATED TO PAY, CONCURRENTLY WITH SUCH PREPAYMENT, THE PREPAYMENT PREMIUM PROVIDED FOR IN THE NOTE (OR, IN THE EVENT OF ACCELERATION WHEN THE NOTE IS CLOSED TO PREPAYMENT, AS PROVIDED IN THE DEFINITION OF SECURED OBLIGATIONS SET FORTH IN ARTICLE 1 HEREOF). MORTGAGOR HEREBY DECLARES THAT MORTGAGEES AGREEMENT TO MAKE THE LOAN EVIDENCED BY THE NOTE AT THE INTEREST RATE AND FOR THE TERM SET FORTH IN THE NOTE CONSTITUTES ADEQUATE CONSIDERATION, GIVEN INDIVIDUAL WEIGHT BY MORTGAGOR, FOR THIS WAIVER AND AGREEMENT.
(b) If the maturity of the Note secured by this Mortgage is accelerated, Mortgagor shall pay a prepayment premium in an amount equal to any prepayment premium which would be payable under the terms of the Note as if the Note were prepaid in full on the date of the acceleration. If under the terms of the Note no voluntary prepayment would be permissible on the date of such acceleration, then the prepayment fee or premium shall be equal to one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the highest prepayment fee or premium set forth in the Note, calculated as of the date of such acceleration as if prepayment were permitted on such date.
9.18 Waiver of Jury Trial. MORTGAGEE AND MORTGAGOR KNOWINGLY, IRREVOCABLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT EITHER MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM BASED ON THIS MORTGAGE, OR ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS MORTGAGE OR ANY LOAN DOCUMENT, OR ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT, COURSE OF DEALING, STATEMENT (WHETHER VERBAL OR WRITTEN) OR ACTIONS OF ANY PARTY HERETO OR TO ANY LOAN DOCUMENT. THIS PROVISION IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR MORTGAGEE AND MORTGAGOR TO ENTER INTO THE LOAN TRANSACTION EVIDENCED BY THE NOTE.
9.19 Governing Laws; Forum.
(a) The substantive laws of the State of Connecticut shall govern the validity, construction, enforcement and interpretation of this Mortgage.
(b) Any legal suit, action or proceeding against Mortgagee or Mortgagor arising out of or relating to this Mortgage may at Mortgagees option be instituted in any federal or state court serving the Town of Orange, the Town of Shelton or the Town of Milford or the County of Fairfield or the County of New Haven, State of Connecticut and Mortgagor waives any objections which it may now or hereafter have based on venue and/or forum non conveniens of any such suit, action or proceeding, and Mortgagor hereby irrevocably submits to the jurisdiction of any such court in any suit, action or proceeding.
9.20 Entire Agreement. This Mortgage, together with the other Loan Documents, contains the entire understanding between the parties to the matters addressed herein, and may not be changed, amended, modified or waived except pursuant to a written agreement executed by the parties, and supersedes any other understandings or agreements with respect to the matters covered hereby.
9.21 Limitation on Liability. The provisions of Section 18(a) and Section 18(b) of the Note are incorporated herein by reference.
9.22 Claims Against Mortgagee. Mortgagee shall not be in default under this Mortgage, or under any of the other Loan Documents, unless a written notice specifically setting forth the claim of Mortgagor shall have been given to Mortgagee within three (3) months after Mortgagor first had knowledge of the occurrence of the event that Mortgagor alleges gave rise to such claim and Mortgagee does not remedy or cure the default, if any there be, promptly thereafter. Mortgagor waives any claim, set-off or defense against Mortgagee arising by reason of any alleged default by Mortgagee as to which Mortgagor does not give such notice timely as aforesaid. Mortgagor acknowledges that such waiver is or may be essential to Mortgagees ability to enforce Mortgagees remedies without delay and that such waiver therefore constitutes a substantial part of the bargain between Mortgagee and Mortgagor with respect to the Loan.
9.23 Acceptance of Cures for Events of Default. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Mortgage or the other Loan Documents, Mortgagee shall in no event or under any circumstance be obligated or required to accept a cure by Mortgagor or by any other person of an Event of Default unless Mortgagee agrees to do so in the exercise of its sole and absolute discretion, it being agreed that once an Event of Default has occurred, Mortgagee shall be absolutely and unconditionally entitled to pursue all rights and remedies available to it under the Loan Documents or otherwise at law or in equity.
ARTICLE 10
CONNECTICUT PROVISIONS
10.1 Principles of Construction. In the event of any inconsistencies between the terms and conditions of this Article 10 and the terms and conditions of this Mortgage, the terms and conditions of this Article 10 shall control and be binding.
10.2 Open-End Mortgage. This is an OPEN-END MORTGAGE made pursuant to and subject to all of the terms and provisions of Section 49-2(c) of the Connecticut General Statutes and the holder hereof shall have all of the rights, powers and protection to which the holder of an OPEN-END MORTGAGE DEED is entitled under Connecticut law. Upon request the Mortgagee may, in its discretion, make future advances to Mortgagor pursuant to the Note, notwithstanding any repayments or prepayments of the outstanding principal balance of the Note. Any such future advance and the interest payable thereon shall be secured by this Mortgage, equally with, and with the same priority over other claims as the original debt secured hereby when evidenced by promissory notes stating that the notes are secured hereby. At no time shall the principal amount of the debt secured by this Mortgage exceed the original loan authorized, nor shall the maturity of any future advance secured hereby extend beyond the maturity of the original mortgage debt as stated in the Note.

MORTGAGOR HAS BEEN ADVISED BY COUNSEL OF ITS RIGHTS WITH RESPECT TO PREJUDGMENT REMEDIES UNDER CHAPTER 903A OF THE CONNECTICUT GENERAL STATUTES, AS AMENDED, INCLUDING SECTIONS 52-278A ET SEQ. MORTGAGOR HEREBY KNOWINGLY AND WILLINGLY WAIVES TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW ALL RIGHTS OF NOTICE, JUDICIAL HEARING OR PRIOR COURT ORDER IN CONNECTION WITH THE OBTAINING BY MORTGAGEE OF ANY PREJUDGMENT REMEDY WITH RESPECT TO THIS MORTGAGE, OR PURSUANT TO ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS EXECUTED BY MORTGAGOR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS TRANSACTION, INCLUDING ANY AMENDMENTS OR EXTENSIONS HEREOF OR THEREOF.

10.5 MORTGAGOR ACKNOWLEDGES, REPRESENTS AND WARRANTS THAT THE LOAN EVIDENCED BY THE NOTE IS FOR COMMERCIAL PURPOSES. MORTGAGOR FURTHER ACKNOWLEDGES, REPRESENTS AND WARRANTS THAT MORTGAGOR IS ENGAGED EXCLUSIVELY IN COMMERCIAL PURSUITS AND THAT THE PROCEEDS OF THE NOTE ARE TO BE UTILIZED IN THE BUSINESS ACTIVITIES OF MORTGAGOR AND WILL NOT BE UTILIZED FOR CONSUMER PURPOSES.

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, and at all times hereafter specified, WU/LH 15 EXECUTIVE L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company ( Maker ), having an address at c/o Lighthouse Real Estate Management LLC, 60 Hempstead Avenue, Suite 718, West Hempstead, New York 11552, promises to pay to the order of FIRST SUNAMERICA LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY , a New York corporation, having an address at 1 SunAmerica Center, Century City, Los Angeles, California 90067-6022 (hereinafter referred to, together with each subsequent holder hereof, as Holder ), or at such other address as may be designated from time to time hereafter by any Holder, the principal sum of FOUR MILLION NINETY-SIX THOUSAND FOUR HUNDRED AND NO/100THS DOLLARS ($4,096,400), together with interest on the principal balance outstanding from time to time, as hereinafter provided, in lawful money of the United States of America.
By its execution and delivery of this promissory note (this Note ), Maker covenants and agrees as follows:
1. Interest Rate and Payments.
(a) The balance of principal outstanding from time to time under this Note shall bear interest at the rate of five and seventy-six hundredths percent (5.76%) per annum (the Original Interest Rate ), computed on the basis of a three hundred sixty (360) day year composed of twelve (12) months of thirty (30) days each; however, interest for partial months shall be calculated by multiplying the principal balance of this Note by the applicable interest rate (i.e., the Original Interest Rate or the New Rate (hereinafter defined)), dividing the product by three hundred sixty (360), and multiplying that result by the actual number of days elapsed.
(b) Interest only on this Note shall be payable on the date the loan evidenced by this Note (the Loan ) is funded by Holder, in advance, for the period from and including the date hereof through and including March 31, 2011.
(c) Commencing on May 1, 2011 and on the first day of each month thereafter through and including April 1, 2012, (each such date a Interest Only Payment Date ) payments of interest only shall be payable, in arrears, in the amount of $19,662.72.
(d) Commencing on May 1, 2012 and on the first day of each month thereafter through and including the first day of the month immediately preceding the Maturity Date (each such date a Principal and Interest Payment Date and together with any Interest Only Payment Date, referred to herein, collectively, as a Payment Date ), combined payments of principal and interest shall be payable, in arrears, in the amount of $25,795.47. each (such amount representing an amount that would be sufficient to fully amortize the original principal amount of this Note over a twenty-five (25) year period (the Amortization Period ), if such amortization were based on a three hundred sixty (360) day year composed of twelve (12) months of thirty (30) days each).
(e) The entire outstanding principal balance, and all other amounts due under this Note and the other Loan Documents (as hereinafter defined), together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, shall be due and payable in full on April 1, 2018 (the Maturity Date ).
2. Holders Extension Option; Net Operating Income . The provisions of this Section 2 concern the election of Holder to extend the term of the Loan for the Extension Term (as defined below) and certain obligations of Maker during the Extension Term.
(a) If Maker shall fail to pay the outstanding principal balance of this Note and all accrued interest and other charges due hereon and all other amounts due under the Loan Documents, at the Maturity Date, Holder shall have the right, at Holders sole option and discretion, to extend the term of the Loan for an additional period of five (5) years (the Extension Term ) and require Maker to make additional monthly payments of net operating income as provided herein. If Holder elects to extend the term of the Loan, Maker shall pay all fees of Holder incurred in connection with such extension, including, but not limited to, attorneys fees and title insurance premiums. Maker shall execute all documents reasonably requested by Holder to evidence and secure the Loan, as extended, and shall obtain and provide to Holder any title insurance policy or endorsement requested by Holder. If Holder elects to extend the term of the loan for the Extension Term, no Event of Default shall be deemed to exist solely by reason of the failure by Maker to pay such outstanding principal balance of this Note and all accrued interest and other charges due hereunder, and all other amounts due under the Loan Documents, on the Maturity Date.
(b) Should Holder elect to extend the term of the Loan as provided above, Holder shall: (i) reset the interest rate borne by the then-existing principal balance of the Loan to a rate per annum (the New Rate ) equal to the greater of (A) the Original Interest Rate, or (B) Holders (or comparable lenders, if Holder is no longer making such loans) then-prevailing interest rate for five (5) year loans secured by properties similar to the Property (hereinafter defined), as determined by Holder in its sole discretion; (ii) re-amortize the then-existing principal balance of the Loan over the Amortization Period; (iii) have the right to require Maker to enter into modifications of the non-economic terms of the Loan Documents as Holder may request (the Non-Economic Modifications ); and (iv) notwithstanding any provision set forth in the Loan Documents to the contrary, have the right to require Maker to make monthly payments into escrow for insurance premiums and real property taxes, assessments and similar governmental charges. Hence, monthly principal and interest payments during the Extension Term shall be based upon the New Rate, in an amount that would be sufficient to fully amortize the outstanding principal balance of the Loan over the Amortization Period.
(c) If Holder elects to extend the term of the Loan, Holder shall advise Maker of the New Rate on or prior to the Maturity Date, but in no event shall the term be extended unless Holder is entitled to do so under Section 2(a) above.
(d) In addition to the required monthly payments of principal and interest set forth above, commencing on the first day of the second month following the Maturity Date and continuing on the first day of each month thereafter during the Extension Term (each an Additional Payment Date ), Maker shall make monthly payments to Holder in an amount equal to all Net Operating Income (hereinafter defined) attributable to the Property for the calendar month ending on the last day of the month that is two months preceding each such Additional Payment Date.
For example, assuming the Maturity Date is January 1, then Net Operating Income for the period from January 1 through January 31 shall be payable to Holder on March 1; Net Operating Income for the period from February 1 through February 28 shall be payable to Holder on April 1, and so on.
(e) Holder shall deposit all such Net Operating Income received from Maker into an account or accounts maintained at a financial institution chosen by Holder or its Servicer in its sole discretion (the Deposit Account ) and all such funds shall be invested in a manner acceptable to Holder in its sole discretion. All interest, dividends and earnings credited to the Deposit Account shall be held and applied in accordance with the terms hereof.
(f) On the third Additional Payment Date and on each third Additional Payment Date thereafter, Holder shall apply all Excess Funds (hereinafter defined), if any, to prepayment of amounts due under this Note, without premium or penalty.
(g) As security for the repayment of the Loan and the performance of all other obligations of Maker under the Loan Documents, Maker hereby assigns, pledges, conveys, delivers, transfers and grants to Holder a first priority security interest in and to: (i) all Makers right, title and interest in and to the Deposit Account; (ii) all rights to payment from the Deposit Account and the money deposited therein or credited thereto (whether then due or in the future due and whether then or in the future on deposit); (iii) all interest thereon; (iv) any certificates, instruments and securities, if any, representing the Deposit Account; (v) all claims, demands, general intangibles, choses in action and other rights or interests of Maker in respect of the Deposit Account; (vi) any monies then or at any time thereafter deposited therein; and (vii) any increases, renewals, extensions, substitutions and replacements thereof and all proceeds of the foregoing.
(h) From time to time, but not more frequently than monthly, Maker may request a disbursement (a Disbursement ) from the Deposit Account for capital expenses, tenant improvement expenses, leasing commissions and special contingency expenses. Holder may consent to or deny any such Disbursement in its sole discretion.
(i) During the existence of an Event of Default (hereinafter defined), (i) Maker shall not be entitled to any Disbursement from the Deposit Account and (ii) Holder shall be entitled to take immediate possession and control of the Deposit Account (and all funds contained therein) and to pursue all of its rights and remedies available to Holder under the Loan Documents, at law and in equity.
(j) All of the terms and conditions of the Loan shall apply during the Extension Term, except as expressly set forth above, and except that no further extensions of the Loan shall be permitted.
(k) For the purposes of the foregoing:
(i) Excess Funds shall mean, on any Additional Payment Date, the amount of funds then existing in the Deposit Account (including any Net Operating Income due on the applicable Additional Payment Date), less an amount equal to the sum of three regularly scheduled payments of principal and interest due on this Note;
(ii) Net Operating Income shall mean, for any particular period of time, Gross Revenue for the relevant period, less Operating Expenses for the relevant period; provided, however, that if such amount is equal to or less than zero (0), Net Operating Income shall equal zero (0);
(iii) Gross Revenue shall mean all payments and other revenues (exclusive, however, of any payments attributable to sales taxes) received by or on behalf of Maker from all sources related to the ownership or operation of the Property, including, but not limited to, rents, room charges, parking fees, interest, security deposits (unless required to be held in a segregated account), business interruption insurance proceeds, operating expense pass-through revenues, direct expense reimbursements and common area maintenance charges, for the relevant period for which the calculation of Gross Revenue is being made; and
(iv) Operating Expenses shall mean the sum of all ordinary and necessary operating expenses actually paid by Maker in connection with the operation of the Property during the relevant period for which the calculation of Operating Expenses is being made, including, but not limited to, (a) payments made by Maker for taxes and insurance required under the Loan Documents and (b) monthly debt service payments as required under this Note.
3. Budgets During Extension Term .
(a) Within fifteen (15) Business Days (as defined below) following the Maturity Date and on or before December 1 of each subsequent calendar year, Maker shall deliver to Holder a proposed revenue and expense budget for the Property for the remainder of the calendar year in which the Maturity Date occurs or the immediately succeeding calendar year (as applicable). Such budget shall set forth Makers projection of Gross Revenue and Operating Expenses for the applicable calendar year, which shall be subject to Holders reasonable approval. Once a proposed budget has been reviewed and approved by Holder, and Maker has made all revisions requested by Holder, if any, the revised budget shall be delivered to Holder and shall thereafter become the budget for the Property hereunder (any such budget referred to as the Budget ) for the applicable calendar year. If Maker and Holder are unable to agree upon a Budget for any calendar year, the budgeted Operating Expenses (excluding extraordinary items) provided in the Budget for the Property for the preceding calendar year shall be considered the Budget for the Property for the subject calendar year until Maker and Holder agree upon a new Budget for such calendar year.
(b) During the Extension Term, Maker shall operate the Property in accordance with the applicable Budget for the applicable calendar year, and the total of expenditures relating to the Property exceeding one hundred and five percent (105%) of the aggregate of such expenses set forth in the applicable Budget for the applicable time period shall not be treated as Operating Expenses for the purposes of calculating Net Operating Income, without the prior written consent of Holder except for emergency expenditures which, in Makers good faith judgment, are reasonably necessary to protect, or avoid immediate danger to, life or property.
4. Reports During Extension Term .
(a) During the Extension Term, Maker shall deliver to Holder all financial statements reasonably required by Holder to calculate Net Operating Income, including, without limitation, a monthly statement to be delivered to Holder concurrently with Makers payment of Net Operating Income that sets forth the amount of Net Operating Income accompanying such statement and Makers calculation of Net Operating Income for the relevant calendar month. Such statements shall be certified by an executive officer of Maker or Makers manager, managing member or general partner (as applicable) as having been prepared in accordance with the terms hereof and to be true, accurate and complete in all material respects.
(b) In addition, on or before February 1 of each calendar year during the Extension Term, Maker shall submit to Holder an annual income and expense statement for the Property which shall include the calculation of Gross Revenue, Operating Expenses and Net Operating Income for the preceding calendar year and shall be accompanied by Makers reconciliation of any difference between the actual aggregate amount of the Net Operating Income for such calendar year and the aggregate amount of Net Operating Income for such calendar year actually remitted to Holders. All such statements shall be certified by an executive officer of Maker or Makers manager, managing member or general partner (as applicable) as having been prepared in accordance with the terms hereof and to be true, accurate and complete in all material respects. If any such annual financial statement discloses any inconsistency between the calculation of Net Operating Income and the amount of Net Operating Income actually remitted to Holder, Maker shall immediately remit to Holder the amount of any underpayment of Net Operating Income for such calendar year or, in the event of an overpayment by Maker, such amount may be withheld from any subsequent payment of Net Operating Income required hereunder.
(c) Holder may notify Maker within ninety (90) days after receipt of any statement or report required hereunder that Holder disputes any computation or item contained in any portion of such statement or report. If Holder so notifies Maker, Holder and Maker shall meet in good faith within twenty (20) days after Holders notice to Maker to resolve such disputed items. If, despite such good faith efforts, the parties are unable to resolve the dispute at such meeting or within ten (10) days thereafter, the items shall be resolved by an independent certified public accountant designated by Holder within fifteen (15) days after such ten (10) day period. The determination of such accountant shall be final. All fees of such accountant shall be paid by Maker. Maker shall remit to Holder any additional amount of Net Operating Income found to be due for such periods within ten (10) days after the resolution of such dispute by the parties or the accountants determination, as applicable. The amount of any overpayment found to have been made for such periods may be withheld from any required future remittance of Net Operating Income.
(d) Maker shall at all times keep and maintain full and accurate books of account and records adequate to reflect correctly all items required in order to calculate Net Operating Income.
5. Prepayment
(a) Maker shall have no right to prepay all or any part of this Note prior to the date that is the last day of the forty-second (42) month following the date of this Note (the Lockout Expiration Date ).
(b) At any time following the Lockout Expiration Date, Maker shall have the right to prepay the full principal amount of this Note, and all other amounts due under this Note and the other Loan Documents, and all accrued but unpaid interest thereon as of the date of prepayment, provided that (i) Maker gives not less than thirty (30) days prior written notice to Holder of Makers election to prepay this Note, (ii) Maker pays a prepayment premium to Holder equal to the greater of (A) one percent (1%) of the outstanding principal amount of this Note or (B) the Present Value of this Note (hereinafter defined), less the amount of principal being prepaid, calculated as of the prepayment date and (iii) Maker prepays each of the other Additional Notes (as such term is defined in the Mortgage) and all other amounts due under the Additional Notes and the other Additional Loan Documents (as such term is defined in the Mortgage), and all accrued but unpaid interest thereon as of the date of prepayment.
(c) Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 5 , no prepayment premium shall be due (i) in connection with any involuntary prepayment due to the Holders application of any insurance proceeds or condemnation awards to the principal balance of the Loan or (ii) if Maker provides additional funds to prepay the Loan in connection with the application of any insurance proceeds or condemnation awards to the principal balance of the Loan following any casualty or condemnation; provided, in any such case, that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such application of insurance proceeds or condemnation awards.
(d) Holder shall notify Maker in writing of the amount and basis of determination of the prepayment premium. Holder shall not be obligated to accept any prepayment of the principal balance of this Note unless such prepayment is accompanied by (i) the applicable prepayment premium, (ii) the outstanding principal balance of the Loan, (iii) all accrued interest and other sums due under this Note and all other amounts due under the Loan Documents and (iv) the outstanding principal balance of the Additional Loans (as such term is defined in the Mortgage) all accrued interest and other sums due under the Additional Notes and all other amounts due under the Additional Loan Documents. Maker may not prepay the Loan on a Friday, nor on any public holiday or the equivalent for banks generally under the laws of the State of New York or on any day preceding a public holiday, or the equivalent for banks generally under the laws of the State of New York.
(e) Except for making payments of Net Operating Income as required above, and except for the application of insurance proceeds or condemnation awards to the principal balance of this Note, as provided in the Mortgage (hereinafter defined), in no event shall Maker be permitted to make any partial prepayments of this Note.
(f) If Holder accelerates this Note for any reason, then in addition to Makers obligation to pay the then outstanding principal balance of this Note and all accrued but unpaid interest thereon, Maker shall pay an additional amount equal to the prepayment premium that would be due to Holder if Maker were voluntarily prepaying this Note at the time that such acceleration occurred, or if under the terms hereof no voluntary prepayment would be permissible on the date of such acceleration, Maker shall pay a prepayment premium equal to 150% of the highest prepayment premium set forth in this Note, calculated as of the date of such acceleration as if prepayment were permitted on such date.
(g) For the purposes of the foregoing:
(i) The Present Value of this Note with respect to any prepayment of this Note, as of any date, shall be determined by discounting all scheduled payments of principal and interest remaining to maturity of this Note, attributed to the amount being prepaid, at the Discount Rate. If prepayment occurs on a date other than a Payment Date, the actual number of days remaining from the prepayment date to the next Payment Date will be used to calculate such discount within such period;
(ii) The Discount Rate is the rate which, when compounded monthly, is equivalent to the Treasury Rate, when compounded semi-annually;
(iii) The Treasury Rate is the semi-annual yield on the Treasury Constant Maturity Series with maturity equal to the remaining weighted average life of this Note, for the week prior to the prepayment date, as reported in Federal Reserve Statistical Release H. 15 - Selected Interest Rates, conclusively determined by Holder on the prepayment date. The rate will be determined by linear interpolation between the yields reported in Release H.15, if necessary. In the event Release H.15 is no longer published, Holder shall select a comparable publication to determine the Treasury Rate.
(h) Holder shall not be obligated actually to reinvest the amount prepaid in any treasury obligations as a condition precedent to receiving any prepayment premium.
(i) Notwithstanding the foregoing, (A) at any time during the Extension Term, Maker shall have the right to prepay in full, but not in part, the principal amount of this Note and all accrued but unpaid interest thereon as of the date of prepayment, without prepayment premium thereon and (B) no prepayment premium shall be due in connection with the prepayment of the full principal amount of this Note, and all other amounts due under this Note and the other Loan Documents, and all accrued but unpaid interest thereon as of the date of prepayment, during the ninety (90) day period prior to the Maturity Date.
6. Payments . Whenever any payment to be made under this Note shall be stated to be due on a Saturday, Sunday or public holiday or the equivalent for banks generally under the laws of the State of New York (any other day being a Business Day ), such payment may be made on the next succeeding Business Day.
7. Default Rate .
(a) The entire balance of principal, interest, and any other sums due under this Note and the other Loan Documents upon the maturity hereof, by acceleration or otherwise, shall bear interest from the date due until paid at the greater of (i) eighteen percent (18%) per annum and (ii) a per annum rate equal to four percent (4%) over the prime rate published in The Wall Street Journal on the first business day of each month (the Default Rate ); provided, however, that such rate shall not exceed the maximum permitted by applicable state or federal law. In the event The Wall Street Journal is no longer published or no longer publishes such prime rate, Holder shall select a comparable reference.
(b) If any payment under this Note or any of the Additional Notes is not made when due, interest shall accrue at the Default Rate from the date such payment was due until payment is actually made.
8. Late Charges . In addition to interest as set forth herein, Maker shall pay to Holder a late charge equal to four percent (4%) of any amounts due under this Note in the event any such amount is not paid when due. Notwithstanding the foregoing provision, Holder will allow for one (1) five (5) day grace period upon monetary default without the obligation of paying a late charge in any twelve (12) month period during the term of the Loan.
9. Application of Payments . All payments hereunder shall be applied in the following order: (i) first, to the payment of late charges, if any; (ii) second, to the payment of prepayment premiums, if any; (iii) third, to the repayment of any sums advanced by Holder for the payment of any insurance premiums, taxes, assessments or other charges against the Property securing this Note and any other costs and expenses incurred by Holder in accordance with the Loan Documents (together with interest thereon at the Default Rate from the date of advance until repaid), if any; (iv) fourth, to the payment of accrued and unpaid interest and other amounts due and payable under the Loan Documents (other than principal), if any; and (v) fifth, to the reduction of principal. Notwithstanding the foregoing, for so long as any Event of Default is continuing, Holder shall have the continuing right to apply any payment received by Holder from or on behalf of Maker as Holder may elect against the due and owing obligations of Maker under the Note and the other Loan Documents in such order of priority or in such allocations as Holder may deem advisable in its sole and absolute discretion.
10. Immediately Available Funds . All payments under this Note shall be payable in immediately available funds without setoff, counterclaim or deduction of any kind, and shall be made by electronic funds transfer from a bank account established and maintained by Maker for such purpose.
11. Security . This Note is secured by, among other things, (i) that certain (a) Open-End Mortgage, Assignment of Leases and Rents, Security Agreement and Fixture Filing, of even date herewith, granted by Maker for the benefit of Holder (the Mortgage ) encumbering certain real property and improvements located at 15 Executive Boulevard, Orange, Connecticut 06477, as more particularly described in the Mortgage (the Property ), (ii) a Guaranty Agreement from Paul Cooper, Jeffrey Ravetz and Louis Sheinker (collectively, Guarantors ), in favor of Holder (the Guaranty ) and (iii) the Affiliate Guaranty (as such term is defined in the Mortgage).
12. Certain Definitions . Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings set forth in the Mortgage.
13. Event of Default . Each of the following events will constitute an event of default (an Event of Default ) under this Note and under the Mortgage and each other document evidencing or securing or executed in connection with the Loan (collectively, the Loan Documents ) , and any Event of Default under any Loan Document shall constitute an Event of Default hereunder and under each of the other Loan Documents:
(a) any failure to pay when due any interest, principal or other amount in a sum certain under this Note or under any of the other Loan Documents for which sum there is a scheduled date for payment or for which there is a date certain for payment.
(b) any failure to pay within ten (10) days following demand by Holder for any amount other than any amount described in Section 13(a) above; or
(c) any failure of Maker to properly perform any obligation contained herein or in any of the other Loan Documents (other than the obligation to make payments under this Note or the other Loan Documents) and the continuance of such failure for a period of thirty (30) days following written notice thereof from Holder to Maker; provided, however, that if such failure is not curable within such thirty (30) day period, then, so long as Maker commences to cure such failure within such thirty (30) day period and is continually and diligently attempting to cure to completion, such failure shall not be an Event of Default unless such failure remains uncured for one hundred twenty (120) days after such written notice to Maker; or
(d) if, at any time during the Extension Term, Gross Revenue for any calendar month shall be less than ninety-three percent (93%) of the amount of projected Gross Revenue for such month set forth in the applicable Budget; or
(e) the occurrence of any event that is deemed to be an Event of Default under any provision of this Note, the Mortgage, the Affiliate Guaranty any other Loan Document or any Additional Loan Document.
14. Acceleration . If at any time an Event of Default exists, the entire balance of principal, accrued interest and other sums owing hereunder shall, at the option of Holder, become at once due and payable without notice or demand. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default described in Section 13(d) hereof, Holder shall have the option, in its sole and absolute discretion, to either (a) exercise any remedies available to Holder under the Loan Documents, at law or in equity, or (b) require Maker to submit a new proposed budget for Holders approval. If Holder agrees to accept such new proposed budget, then such budget shall become the Budget for all purposes hereunder. If an Event of Default exists, Holder may exercise any right, power or remedy permitted by law or set forth herein or in the Mortgage or any other Loan Document.
15. Conditions Precedent . Maker hereby certifies and declares that all acts, conditions and things required to be done or performed or have happened precedent to the creation and issuance of this Note, and in order to constitute this Note the legal, valid and binding obligation of Maker, enforceable in accordance with the terms hereof, have been done or performed or have happened in due and strict compliance with all applicable laws.
16. Certain Waivers and Consents . Maker and all parties now or hereafter liable for the payment hereof, primarily or secondarily, directly or indirectly, and whether as endorser, guarantor, surety, or otherwise, hereby severally (a) waive presentment, demand, protest, notice of protest and/or dishonor, and all other demands or notices of any sort whatever with respect to this Note, (b) consent to impairment or release of collateral, extensions of time for payment, and acceptance of partial payments before, at, or after maturity, (c) waive any right to require Holder to proceed against any security for this Note before proceeding hereunder, (d) waive diligence in the collection of this Note or in filing suit on this Note and (e) agree to pay all out-of-pocket costs and expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys fees, which may be actually incurred in the collection of this Note or any part thereof or in preserving, securing possession of and realizing upon any security for this Note.
17. Usury Savings Clause . The provisions of this Note and of all agreements between Maker and Holder are, whether now existing or hereinafter made, hereby expressly limited so that in no contingency or event whatsoever, whether by reason of acceleration of the maturity hereof, prepayment, demand for payment or otherwise, shall the amount paid, or agreed to be paid, to Holder for the use, forbearance or detention of the principal hereof or interest hereon, which remains unpaid from time to time, exceed the maximum amount permissible under applicable law. In particular, it is the intention of the parties hereto to conform strictly to Connecticut and Federal law, whichever is applicable. If as a result of any circumstance whatsoever, the performance or fulfillment of any provision hereof or of any other agreement between Maker and Holder pertaining to the subject matter hereof shall, at the time performance or fulfillment of such provision is due, involve or purport to require any payment in excess of the limits then prescribed by applicable law, then the obligation to be performed or fulfilled shall hereby be reduced to such limit as to be valid under such applicable law, and if as a result of any circumstance whatsoever, Holder should receive as interest under this Note an amount which would exceed the then highest lawful rate, the amount by which such interest payment would exceed such highest lawful rate shall be applied to the reduction of the principal balance owing hereunder without prepayment or penalty (or, at Holders option, be paid to Maker) and in no event shall be counted as interest. To the fullest extent permitted by then applicable law, the determination of the legal maximum amount of interest shall at any and all times be made by amortizing, prorating, allocating and spreading in equal parts over the period of the full stated term of this Note, all interest at any time contracted for, charged or received from Maker in connection with this Note and all other agreements between Maker and Holder pertaining to the subject matter hereof, so that the actual rate of interest on account of the indebtedness represented by this Note is uniform throughout the term hereof and complies with all applicable law.
18. Non-Recourse; Exceptions to Non-Recourse .
(a) Nothing contained in the Loan Documents shall be deemed to impair, limit or prejudice Holders rights in foreclosure proceedings or in any ancillary proceedings brought to facilitate Holders foreclosure on the Property or any portion thereof or to exercise any specific rights or remedies afforded Holder under any other provisions of the Loan Documents or by law or in equity, subject to the non-recourse provisions set forth below, to recover under any guarantee given in connection with the Loan or to pursue any personal liability of Maker or any Guarantor under the Guaranty Agreement, the Environmental Indemnity Agreement or the ERISA indemnity provisions of the Mortgage. Except as expressly hereinafter set forth, the recourse of Holder with respect to the obligations evidenced by this Note, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents (except for the Guaranty and the Environmental Indemnity Agreement) shall be solely to the Property, Chattels and Intangible Personalty (as such terms are defined in the Mortgage).
Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary contained in this Note, the Mortgage or in any other Loan Document, nothing shall be deemed in any way to impair, limit or prejudice the rights of Holder to collect or recover from Maker (but not any member, manager, officer, director or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing, with the exclusion of the Guarantors) and Guarantors: (i) damages or costs (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys fees) incurred by Holder as a result of any intentional waste by Maker; (ii) any condemnation award or insurance proceeds attributable to the Property which were not paid to Holder or used to restore the Property in accordance with the terms of the Mortgage; (iii) any Rents, profits, security deposits, advances, rebates, prepaid rents or other similar sums attributable to the Property collected by or for Maker (x) following an Event of Default under any Loan Document and not properly applied to the reasonable fixed and operating expenses of the Property, including, without limitation, payments due on this Note and other sums due under the Loan Documents or (y) to the extent not deposited into the Lockbox Account; (iv) any security deposits collected by or for Maker and not applied in accordance with the applicable Leases (as such term is defined in the Mortgage); (v) the amount of any accrued taxes, assessments, and/or utility charges affecting the Property (whether or not the same have been billed to Maker) that are either unpaid by Maker or advanced by Holder under the Mortgage, except, in respect of the Property, to the extent of any of the foregoing accruing after the Termination Date (as hereinafter defined) with respect to the Property; (vi) any sums expended by Holder in fulfilling the obligations of Maker, as lessor, under any Lease affecting the Property; (vii) the amount of any loss suffered by Holder (that would otherwise be covered by insurance and available to Holder in accordance with the Loan Documents) as a result of Makers failure to maintain any insurance required under the terms of any Loan Document; and (viii) losses, damages and costs (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys fees) incurred by Holder as a result of any fraud of material misrepresentation by Maker in connection with the Property or any of the Loan Documents. For the avoidance of doubt, the matters set forth in this paragraph (a) shall be fully recourse to Maker (but not any member, manager, officer, director or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing, with the exclusion of the Guarantors) and Guarantor.

(c) any failure of Maker to properly perform any obligation contained in this Note (other than the obligation to make payments under this Note) and the continuance of such failure for a period of thirty (30) days following written notice thereof from Holder to Maker; provided, however, that if such failure is not curable within such thirty (30) day period, then, so long as Maker commences to cure such failure within such thirty (30) day period and is continually and diligently attempting to cure to completion, such failure shall not be an Event of Default unless such failure remains uncured for one hundred twenty (120) days after such written notice to Maker (for the avoidance of doubt, any Event of Default as defined in the Mortgage or any other Loan Document or any Additional Loan Document is an Event of Default under this Note and shall not be subject to the cure periods set forth in this Section 13(c) ); or
(c) Section 18(a) of the Note shall be amended and restated as follows:
(a) Nothing contained in the Loan Documents shall be deemed to impair, limit or prejudice Holders rights in foreclosure proceedings or in any ancillary proceedings brought to facilitate Holders foreclosure on the Property or any portion thereof or to exercise any specific rights or remedies afforded Holder under any other provisions of the Loan Documents or by law or in equity, subject to the non-recourse provisions set forth below, to recover under any guarantee given in connection with the Loan or to pursue any personal liability of Maker or any Guarantor under the Guaranty Agreement, the Environmental Indemnity Agreement or the ERISA indemnity provisions of the Mortgage. Except as expressly hereinafter set forth, the recourse of Holder with respect to the obligations evidenced by this Note, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents (except for the Guaranty and the Environmental Indemnity Agreement) shall be solely to the Property, Chattels and Intangible Personalty (as such terms are defined in the Mortgage). Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary contained in this Note, the Mortgage or in any other Loan Document, nothing shall be deemed in any way to impair, limit or prejudice the rights of Holder to collect or recover from Maker (but not any member, manager, officer, director or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing, with the exclusion of the Guarantors) and
Guarantors: (i) damages or costs (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys fees) incurred by Holder as a result of any intentional waste by Maker; (ii) any condemnation award or insurance proceeds attributable to the Property which were not paid to Holder or used to restore the Property in accordance with the terms of the Mortgage; (iii) any Rents, profits, security deposits, advances, rebates, prepaid rents or other similar sums attributable to the Property collected by or for Maker (x) following an Event of Default under any Loan Document and not properly applied to the reasonable fixed and operating expenses of the Property, including, without limitation, payments due on this Note and other sums due under the Loan Documents or (y) to the extent not deposited into the Lockbox Account; (iv) any security deposits collected by or for Maker and not applied in accordance with the applicable Leases (as such term is defined in the Mortgage); (v) the amount of any accrued taxes, assessments, and/or utility charges affecting the Property (whether or not the same have been billed to Maker) that are either unpaid by Maker or advanced by Holder under the Mortgage, except, in respect of the Property, to the extent of any of the foregoing accruing after the Termination Date (as hereinafter defined) with respect to the Property; (vi) any sums expended by Holder in fulfilling the obligations of Maker, as lessor, under any Lease affecting the Property; (vii) the amount of any loss suffered by Holder (that would otherwise be covered by insurance and available to Holder in accordance with the Loan Documents) as a result of Makers failure to maintain any insurance required under the terms of any Loan Document; (viii) losses, damages and costs (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys fees) incurred by Holder as a result of any fraud or material misrepresentation by Maker in connection with the Property or any of the Loan Documents, and (ix) the amount of any losses, damages and costs suffered by Holder as a result of Makers making any REIT Distributions (as defined in the Cash Management Agreement) in accordance with Section 4(a)(ii)(I) of the Cash Management Agreement following a REIT Triggering Event (as defined in the Cash Management Agreement), provided that such amount shall not exceed the amount of such REIT Distributions made to Maker under Section 4(a)(ii)(I) of the Cash Management Agreement, which amounts would have been deposited into the Excess Cash Subaccount (as defined in the Cash Management Agreement) for application pursuant to the Cash Management Agreement if such REIT Distributions were not permitted under Section 4(a)(ii)(I) of the Cash Management Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, the matters set forth in this paragraph (a) shall be fully recourse to Maker (but not any member, manager, officer, director or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing, with the exclusion of the Guarantors) and Guarantor. For the purposes of this Section 18(a) , the Termination Date is, in respect of the Property, the earliest of (x) the date that Maker tenders to Holder or Holders designee a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure in respect of the Property, subject to no title exceptions other than real estate taxes and assessments, the Permitted Exceptions (as defined in the applicable Mortgage) and such additional exceptions approved by Holder pursuant to the Loan Documents or which are otherwise acceptable to Holder in its reasonable discretion, together with such ancillary conveyances, releases and other documentation that are customarily delivered in connection with a deed-in-
lieu of foreclosure transaction, all in form reasonably satisfactory to Holder, and such deed-in-lieu of foreclosure is accepted by Holder in its sole discretion (y) the date that Maker tenders to Holder a stipulation to entry of judgment of foreclosure in respect of the Property, and (z) the date Holder, any Affiliate of Holder, or any other party takes title to the Property in connection with a foreclosure of the applicable Mortgage that encumbers the Property. If Maker elects to deliver a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure in respect of the Property, Holder shall retain the right to determine whether to accept such deed-in-lieu of foreclosure or to proceed with foreclosure proceedings and, upon Holder making such election, Maker shall execute and deliver to Holder an appropriate deed-in-lieu of foreclosure in respect of the Property, as Holder shall have elected; provided, however, that if Holder chooses to proceed with foreclosure proceedings in respect of the Property, the Termination Date shall nonetheless be the earliest of the date specified in clause (x), (y) and (z) above, provided further that if Maker thereafter fails to cooperate with Holder in respect of Holders exercise of any and all remedies available at law or in equity to Holder (including, without limitation, foreclosure), then the Termination Date shall be the earlier of the date specified in clause (y) or (z) above.
(d) Section 18(b) of the Note shall be amended and restated as follows:
(b) The agreement contained in this Section 18 to limit the personal liability of Maker to its interest in the Property, Chattels and Intangible Personalty shall become null and void and be of no further force and effect, and Maker (but not any member, manager, officer, director or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing, with the exclusion of the Guarantors) and Guarantors shall be personally liable for the repayment of the Secured Obligations (as such term is defined in the Mortgage) in the event (i) that the Property, or any part thereof or any interest therein, or any interest in Maker, or any of them, shall be further encumbered by a voluntary lien securing any obligation upon which Maker, or any of them, any direct or indirect general partner, manager or managing member such Maker, any Guarantor, any of the Mortgagor Control Persons (as defined in the Mortgage) or any principal or affiliate of Maker, or any of them, shall be personally liable for repayment, either as obligor or guarantor, (ii) of any breach or violation of Section 5.4, 5.5 or 5.7 of the Mortgage, (iii) that Maker forfeits the Property or the Chattels or any portion of the Property or Chattels due to criminal activity, (iv) any attempt by Maker, any Guarantor or any Mortgagor Owner Person (as defined in the Mortgage) to materially delay any foreclosure against the Property, Chattels and/or Intangible Personalty, or any portion of the Property, the Chattels and/or the Intangible Personalty or any other exercise by Holder of its remedies under the Loan Documents, which attempts shall (x) include, without limitation, (A) any claim made by Maker that any Loan Document is invalid or unenforceable to an extent that would preclude any such foreclosure or other exercise of remedies, (B) Maker filing a petition in bankruptcy, Maker acquiescing in an involuntary bankruptcy proceeding, Maker failing to oppose in good faith the entry of an order for relief pursuant to any involuntary bankruptcy
filed against it, or Maker filing a petition or answer seeking any reorganization, arrangement, composition, readjustment, liquidation, dissolution or similar relief under the bankruptcy laws of the United States or under any other similar federal, state or other statute relating to relief from indebtedness (whether filed by or against Maker), or (C) the appointment of a receiver, trustee or liquidator by Maker, any Guarantor or any Mortgagor Owner Person with respect to Maker or the Property or any part thereof and (y) shall not include a defense to a foreclosure that is (A) not frivolous and is advanced in good faith and (B) based upon a default by Holder under terms of the Loan Documents, or (v) any execution, amendment, modification, assignment or early termination of any Lease of any Required Tenant made in violation of the Loan Documents. For the avoidance of doubt, no such termination of any Lease shall excuse Maker from the performance of its obligations under the Loan Documents.

PROMISSORY NOTE
U.S. $5,724,600 |
March 8, 2011 |
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, and at all times hereafter specified, WU/LH 35 EXECUTIVE L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company ( Maker ), having an address at c/o Lighthouse Real Estate Management LLC, 60 Hempstead Avenue, Suite 718, West Hempstead, New York 11552, promises to pay to the order of FIRST SUNAMERICA LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY, a New York corporation, having an address at 1 SunAmerica Center, Century City, Los Angeles, California 90067-6022 (hereinafter referred to, together with each subsequent holder hereof, as Holder ), or at such other address as may be designated from time to time hereafter by any Holder, the principal sum of FIVE MILLION SEVEN HUNDRED TWENTY-FOUR THOUSAND SIX HUNDRED AND NO/100THS DOLLARS ($5,724,600), together with interest on the principal balance outstanding from time to time, as hereinafter provided, in lawful money of the United States of America.
By its execution and delivery of this promissory note (this Note ), Maker covenants and agrees as follows:
1. Interest Rate and Payments .
(a) The balance of principal outstanding from time to time under this Note shall bear interest at the rate of five and seventy-six hundredths percent (5.76%) per annum (the Original Interest Rate ), computed on the basis of a three hundred sixty (360) day year composed of twelve (12) months of thirty (30) days each; however, interest for partial months shall be calculated by multiplying the principal balance of this Note by the applicable interest rate (i.e., the Original Interest Rate or the New Rate (hereinafter defined)), dividing the product by three hundred sixty (360), and multiplying that result by the actual number of days elapsed.
(b) Interest only on this Note shall be payable on the date the loan evidenced by this Note (the Loan ) is funded by Holder, in advance, for the period from and including the date hereof through and including March 31, 2011.
(c) Commencing on May 1, 2011 and on the first day of each month thereafter through and including April 1, 2012, (each such date a Interest Only Payment Date ) payments of interest only shall be payable, in arrears, in the amount of $27,478.08.
(d) Commencing on May 1, 2012 and on the first day of each month thereafter through and including the first day of the month immediately preceding the Maturity Date (each such date a Principal and Interest Payment Date and together with any Interest Only Payment Date, referred to herein, collectively, as a Payment Date ), combined payments of principal and interest shall be payable, in arrears, in the amount of $36,048.43 each (such amount representing an amount that would be sufficient to fully amortize the original principal amount of this Note over a twenty-five (25) year period (the Amortization Period ), if such amortization were based on a three hundred sixty (360) day year composed of twelve (12) months of thirty (30) days each).
(e) The entire outstanding principal balance, and all other amounts due under this Note and the other Loan Documents (as hereinafter defined), together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, shall be due and payable in full on April 1, 2018 (the Maturity Date ).
2. Holders Extension Option; Net Operating Income . The provisions of this Section 2 concern the election of Holder to extend the term of the Loan for the Extension Term (as defined below) and certain obligations of Maker during the Extension Term.
(a) If Maker shall fail to pay the outstanding principal balance of this Note and all accrued interest and other charges due hereon and all other amounts due under the Loan Documents, at the Maturity Date, Holder shall have the right, at Holders sole option and discretion, to extend the term of the Loan for an additional period of five (5) years (the Extension Term ) and require Maker to make additional monthly payments of net operating income as provided herein. If Holder elects to extend the term of the Loan, Maker shall pay all fees of Holder incurred in connection with such extension, including, but not limited to, attorneys fees and title insurance premiums. Maker shall execute all documents reasonably requested by Holder to evidence and secure the Loan, as extended, and shall obtain and provide to Holder any title insurance policy or endorsement requested by Holder. If Holder elects to extend the term of the loan for the Extension Term, no Event of Default shall be deemed to exist solely by reason of the failure by Maker to pay such outstanding principal balance of this Note and all accrued interest and other charges due hereunder, and all other amounts due under the Loan Documents, on the Maturity Date.
(b) Should Holder elect to extend the term of the Loan as provided above, Holder shall: (i) reset the interest rate borne by the then-existing principal balance of the Loan to a rate per annum (the New Rate ) equal to the greater of (A) the Original Interest Rate, or (B) Holders (or comparable lenders, if Holder is no longer making such loans) then-prevailing interest rate for five (5) year loans secured by properties similar to the Property (hereinafter defined), as determined by Holder in its sole discretion; (ii) re-amortize the then-existing principal balance of the Loan over the Amortization Period; (iii) have the right to require Maker to enter into modifications of the non-economic terms of the Loan Documents as Holder may request (the Non-Economic Modifications ) ; and (iv) notwithstanding any provision set forth in the Loan Documents to the contrary, have the right to require Maker to make monthly payments into escrow for insurance premiums and real property taxes, assessments and similar governmental charges. Hence, monthly principal and interest payments during the Extension Term shall be based upon the New Rate, in an amount that would be sufficient to fully amortize the outstanding principal balance of the Loan over the Amortization Period.
(c) If Holder elects to extend the term of the Loan, Holder shall advise Maker of the New Rate on or prior to the Maturity Date, but in no event shall the term be extended unless Holder is entitled to do so under Section 2(a) above.
(d) In addition to the required monthly payments of principal and interest set forth above, commencing on the first day of the second month following the Maturity Date and continuing on the first day of each month thereafter during the Extension Term (each an Additional Payment Date ), Maker shall make monthly payments to Holder in an
amount equal to all Net Operating Income (hereinafter defined) attributable to the Property for the calendar month ending on the last day of the month that is two months preceding each such Additional Payment Date. For example, assuming the Maturity Date is January 1, then Net Operating Income for the period from January 1 through January 31 shall be payable to Holder on March 1; Net Operating Income for the period from February 1 through February 28 shall be payable to Holder on April 1, and so on.
(e) Holder shall deposit all such Net Operating Income received from Maker into an account or accounts maintained at a financial institution chosen by Holder or its Servicer in its sole discretion (the Deposit Account ) and all such funds shall be invested in a manner acceptable to Holder in its sole discretion. All interest, dividends and earnings credited to the Deposit Account shall be held and applied in accordance with the terms hereof.
(f) On the third Additional Payment Date and on each third Additional Payment Date thereafter, Holder shall apply all Excess Funds (hereinafter defined), if any, to prepayment of amounts due under this Note, without premium or penalty.
(g) As security for the repayment of the Loan and the performance of all other obligations of Maker under the Loan Documents, Maker hereby assigns, pledges, conveys, delivers, transfers and grants to Holder a first priority security interest in and to: (i) all Makers right, title and interest in and to the Deposit Account; (ii) all rights to payment from the Deposit Account and the money deposited therein or credited thereto (whether then due or in the future due and whether then or in the future on deposit); (iii) all interest thereon; (iv) any certificates, instruments and securities, if any, representing the Deposit Account; (v) all claims, demands, general intangibles, choses in action and other rights or interests of Maker in respect of the Deposit Account; (vi) any monies then or at any time thereafter deposited therein; and (vii) any increases, renewals, extensions, substitutions and replacements thereof and all proceeds of the foregoing.
(h) From time to time, but not more frequently than monthly, Maker may request a disbursement (a Disbursement ) from the Deposit Account for capital expenses, tenant improvement expenses, leasing commissions and special contingency expenses. Holder may consent to or deny any such Disbursement in its sole discretion.
(i) During the existence of an Event of Default (hereinafter defined), (i) Maker shall not be entitled to any Disbursement from the Deposit Account and (ii) Holder shall be entitled to take immediate possession and control of the Deposit Account (and all funds contained therein) and to pursue all of its rights and remedies available to Holder under the Loan Documents, at law and in equity.
(j) All of the terms and conditions of the Loan shall apply during the Extension Term, except as expressly set forth above, and except that no further extensions of the Loan shall be permitted.
(k) For the purposes of the foregoing:
(i) Excess Funds shall mean, on any Additional Payment Date, the amount of funds then existing in the Deposit Account (including any
Net Operating Income due on the applicable Additional Payment Date), less an amount equal to the sum of three regularly scheduled payments of principal and interest due on this Note;
(ii) Net Operating Income shall mean, for any particular period of time, Gross Revenue for the relevant period, less Operating Expenses for the relevant period; provided, however, that if such amount is equal to or less than zero (0), Net Operating Income shall equal zero (0);
(iii) Gross Revenue shall mean all payments and other revenues (exclusive, however, of any payments attributable to sales taxes) received by or on behalf of Maker from all sources related to the ownership or operation of the Property, including, but not limited to, rents, room charges, parking fees, interest, security deposits (unless required to be held in a segregated account), business interruption insurance proceeds, operating expense pass-through revenues, direct expense reimbursements and common area maintenance charges, for the relevant period for which the calculation of Gross Revenue is being made; and
(iv) Operating Expenses shall mean the sum of all ordinary and necessary operating expenses actually paid by Maker in connection with the operation of the Property during the relevant period for which the calculation of Operating Expenses is being made, including, but not limited to, (a) payments made by Maker for taxes and insurance required under the Loan Documents and (b) monthly debt service payments as required under this Note.
3. Budgets During Extension Term .
(a) Within fifteen (15) Business Days (as defined below) following the Maturity Date and on or before December 1 of each subsequent calendar year, Maker shall deliver to Holder a proposed revenue and expense budget for the Property for the remainder of the calendar year in which the Maturity Date occurs or the immediately succeeding calendar year (as applicable). Such budget shall set forth Makers projection of Gross Revenue and Operating Expenses for the applicable calendar year, which shall be subject to Holders reasonable approval. Once a proposed budget has been reviewed and approved by Holder, and Maker has made all revisions requested by Holder, if any, the revised budget shall be delivered to Holder and shall thereafter become the budget for the Property hereunder (any such budget referred to as the Budget ) for the applicable calendar year. If Maker and Holder are unable to agree upon a Budget for any calendar year, the budgeted Operating Expenses (excluding extraordinary items) provided in the Budget for the Property for the preceding calendar year shall be considered the Budget for the Property for the subject calendar year until Maker and Holder agree upon a new Budget for such calendar year.
(b) During the Extension Term, Maker shall operate the Property in accordance with the applicable Budget for the applicable calendar year, and the total of expenditures relating to the Property exceeding one hundred and five percent (105%) of the aggregate of such expenses set forth in the applicable Budget for the applicable time period shall not be treated as Operating Expenses for the purposes of calculating Net Operating Income, without the prior written consent of Holder except for emergency expenditures which, in Makers
good faith judgment, are reasonably necessary to protect, or avoid immediate danger to, life or property.
4. Reports During Extension Term .
(a) During the Extension Term, Maker shall deliver to Holder all financial statements reasonably required by Holder to calculate Net Operating Income, including, without limitation, a monthly statement to be delivered to Holder concurrently with Makers payment of Net Operating Income that sets forth the amount of Net Operating Income accompanying such statement and Makers calculation of Net Operating Income for the relevant calendar month. Such statements shall be certified by an executive officer of Maker or Makers manager, managing member or general partner (as applicable) as having been prepared in accordance with the terms hereof and to be true, accurate and complete in all material respects.
(b) In addition, on or before February 1 of each calendar year during the Extension Term, Maker shall submit to Holder an annual income and expense statement for the Property which shall include the calculation of Gross Revenue, Operating Expenses and Net Operating Income for the preceding calendar year and shall be accompanied by Makers reconciliation of any difference between the actual aggregate amount of the Net Operating Income for such calendar year and the aggregate amount of Net Operating Income for such calendar year actually remitted to Holder. All such statements shall be certified by an executive officer of Maker or Makers manager, managing member or general partner (as applicable) as having been prepared in accordance with the terms hereof and to be true, accurate and complete in all material respects. If any such annual financial statement discloses any inconsistency between the calculation of Net Operating Income and the amount of Net Operating Income actually remitted to Holder, Maker shall immediately remit to Holder the amount of any underpayment of Net Operating Income for such calendar year or, in the event of an overpayment by Maker, such amount may be withheld from any subsequent payment of Net Operating Income required hereunder.
(c) Holder may notify Maker within ninety (90) days after receipt of any statement or report required hereunder that Holder disputes any computation or item contained in any portion of such statement or report. If Holder so notifies Maker, Holder and Maker shall meet in good faith within twenty (20) days after Holders notice to Maker to resolve such disputed items. If, despite such good faith efforts, the parties are unable to resolve the dispute at such meeting or within ten (10) days thereafter, the items shall be resolved by an independent certified public accountant designated by Holder within fifteen (15) days after such ten (10) day period. The determination of such accountant shall be final. All fees of such accountant shall be paid by Maker. Maker shall remit to Holder any additional amount of Net Operating Income found to be due for such periods within ten (10) days after the resolution of such dispute by the parties or the accountants determination, as applicable. The amount of any overpayment found to have been made for such periods may be withheld from any required future remittance of Net Operating Income.
(d) Maker shall at all times keep and maintain full and accurate books of account and records adequate to reflect correctly all items required in order to calculate Net Operating Income.
5. Prepayment
(a) Maker shall have no right to prepay all or any part of this Note prior to the date that is the last day of the forty-second (42) month following the date of this Note (the Lockout Expiration Date ) .
(b) At any time following the Lockout Expiration Date, Maker shall have the right to prepay the full principal amount of this Note, and all other amounts due under this Note and the other Loan Documents, and all accrued but unpaid interest thereon as of the date of prepayment, provided that (i) Maker gives not less than thirty (30) days prior written notice to Holder of Makers election to prepay this Note, (ii) Maker pays a prepayment premium to Holder equal to the greater of (A) one percent (1%) of the outstanding principal amount of this Note or (B) the Present Value of this Note (hereinafter defined), less the amount of principal being prepaid, calculated as of the prepayment date and (iii) Maker prepays each of the other Additional Notes (as such term is defined in the Mortgage) and all other amounts due under the Additional Notes and the other Additional Loan Documents (as such term is defined in the Mortgage), and all accrued but unpaid interest thereon as of the date of prepayment.
(c) Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 5 , no prepayment premium shall be due (i) in connection with any involuntary prepayment due to the Holders application of any insurance proceeds or condemnation awards to the principal balance of the Loan or (ii) if Maker provides additional funds to prepay the Loan in connection with the application of any insurance proceeds or condemnation awards to the principal balance of the Loan following any casualty or condemnation; provided, in any such case, that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such application of insurance proceeds or condemnation awards.
(d) Holder shall notify Maker in writing of the amount and basis of determination of the prepayment premium. Holder shall not be obligated to accept any prepayment of the principal balance of this Note unless such prepayment is accompanied by (i) the applicable prepayment premium, (ii) the outstanding principal balance of the Loan, (iii) all accrued interest and other sums due under this Note and all other amounts due under the Loan Documents and (iv) the outstanding principal balance of the Additional Loans (as such term is defined in the Mortgage) all accrued interest and other sums due under the Additional Notes and all other amounts due under the Additional Loan Documents. Maker may not prepay the Loan on a Friday, nor on any public holiday or the equivalent for banks generally under the laws of the State of New York or on any day preceding a public holiday, or the equivalent for banks generally under the laws of the State of New York.
(e) Except for making payments of Net Operating Income as required above, and except for the application of insurance proceeds or condemnation awards to the principal balance of this Note, as provided in the Mortgage (hereinafter defined), in no event shall Maker be permitted to make any partial prepayments of this Note.
(f) If Holder accelerates this Note for any reason, then in addition to Makers obligation to pay the then outstanding principal balance of this Note and all accrued but unpaid interest thereon, Maker shall pay an additional amount equal to the prepayment premium that would be due to Holder if Maker were voluntarily prepaying this Note at the time
that such acceleration occurred, or if under the terms hereof no voluntary prepayment would be permissible on the date of such acceleration, Maker shall pay a prepayment premium equal to 150% of the highest prepayment premium set forth in this Note, calculated as of the date of such acceleration as if prepayment were permitted on such date.
(g) For the purposes of the foregoing:
(i) The Present Value of this Note with respect to any prepayment of this Note, as of any date, shall be determined by discounting all scheduled payments of principal and interest remaining to maturity of this Note, attributed to the amount being prepaid, at the Discount Rate. If prepayment occurs on a date other than a Payment Date, the actual number of days remaining from the prepayment date to the next Payment Date will be used to calculate such discount within such period;
(ii) The Discount Rate is the rate which, when compounded monthly, is equivalent to the Treasury Rate, when compounded semi-annually;
(iii) The Treasury Rate is the semi-annual yield on the Treasury Constant Maturity Series with maturity equal to the remaining weighted average life of this Note, for the week prior to the prepayment date, as reported in Federal Reserve Statistical Release H. 15 - Selected Interest Rates, conclusively determined by Holder on the prepayment date. The rate will be determined by linear interpolation between the yields reported in Release H.15, if necessary. In the event Release H.15 is no longer published, Holder shall select a comparable publication to determine the Treasury Rate.
(h) Holder shall not be obligated actually to reinvest the amount prepaid in any treasury obligations as a condition precedent to receiving any prepayment premium.
(i) Notwithstanding the foregoing, (A) at any time during the Extension Term, Maker shall have the right to prepay in full, but not in part, the principal amount of this Note and all accrued but unpaid interest thereon as of the date of prepayment, without prepayment premium thereon and (B) no prepayment premium shall be due in connection with the prepayment of the full principal amount of this Note, and all other amounts due under this Note and the other Loan Documents, and all accrued but unpaid interest thereon as of the date of prepayment, during the ninety (90) day period prior to the Maturity Date.
6. Payments . Whenever any payment to be made under this Note shall be stated to be due on a Saturday, Sunday or public holiday or the equivalent for banks generally under the laws of the State of New York (any other day being a Business Day ), such payment may be made on the next succeeding Business Day.
7. Default Rate .
(a) The entire balance of principal, interest, and any other sums due under this Note and the other Loan Documents upon the maturity hereof, by acceleration or otherwise, shall bear interest from the date due until paid at the greater of (i) eighteen percent (18%) per annum and (ii) a per annum rate equal to four percent (4%) over the prime rate published
in The Wall Street Journal on the first business day of each month (the Default Rate ) ; provided, however, that such rate shall not exceed the maximum permitted by applicable state or federal law. In the event The Wall Street Journal is no longer published or no longer publishes such prime rate, Holder shall select a comparable reference.
(b) If any payment under this Note or any of the Additional Notes is not made when due, interest shall accrue at the Default Rate from the date such payment was due until payment is actually made.
8. Late Charges . In addition to interest as set forth herein, Maker shall pay to Holder a late charge equal to four percent (4%) of any amounts due under this Note in the event any such amount is not paid when due. Notwithstanding the foregoing provision, Holder will allow for one (1) five (5) day grace period upon monetary default without the obligation of paying a late charge in any twelve (12) month period during the term of the Loan.
9. Application of Payments . All payments hereunder shall be applied in the following order: (i) first, to the payment of late charges, if any; (ii) second, to the payment of prepayment premiums, if any; (iii) third, to the repayment of any sums advanced by Holder for the payment of any insurance premiums, taxes, assessments or other charges against the Property securing this Note and any other costs and expenses incurred by Holder in accordance with the Loan Documents (together with interest thereon at the Default Rate from the date of advance until repaid), if any; (iv) fourth, to the payment of accrued and unpaid interest and other amounts due and payable under the Loan Documents (other than principal), if any; and (v) fifth, to the reduction of principal. Notwithstanding the foregoing, for so long as any Event of Default is continuing, Holder shall have the continuing right to apply any payment received by Holder from or on behalf of Maker as Holder may elect against the due and owing obligations of Maker under the Note and the other Loan Documents in such order of priority or in such allocations as Holder may deem advisable in its sole and absolute discretion.
10. Immediately Available Funds . All payments under this Note shall be payable in immediately available funds without setoff, counterclaim or deduction of any kind, and shall be made by electronic funds transfer from a bank account established and maintained by Maker for such purpose.
11. Security . This Note is secured by, among other things, (i) that certain (a) Open-End Mortgage, Assignment of Leases and Rents, Security Agreement and Fixture Filing, of even date herewith, granted by Maker for the benefit of Holder (the Mortgage ) encumbering certain real property and improvements located at 35 Executive Boulevard, Orange, Connecticut 06477, as more particularly described in the Mortgage (the Property ), (ii) a Guaranty Agreement from Paul Cooper, Jeffrey Ravetz and Louis Sheinker (collectively, Guarantors ), in favor of Holder (the Guaranty ) and (iii) the Affiliate Guaranty (as such term is defined in the Mortgage).
12. Certain Definitions . Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings set forth in the Mortgage.
13. Event of Default . Each of the following events will constitute an event of default (an Event of Default ) under this Note and under the Mortgage and each other
document evidencing or securing or executed in connection with the Loan (collectively, the Loan Documents ), and any Event of Default under any Loan Document shall constitute an Event of Default hereunder and under each of the other Loan Documents:
(a) any failure to pay when due any interest, principal or other amount in a sum certain under this Note or under any of the other Loan Documents for which sum there is a scheduled date for payment or for which there is a date certain for payment.
(b) any failure to pay within ten (10) days following demand by Holder for any amount other than any amount described in Section 13(a) above; or
(c) any failure of Maker to properly perform any obligation contained herein or in any of the other Loan Documents (other than the obligation to make payments under this Note or the other Loan Documents) and the continuance of such failure for a period of thirty (30) days following written notice thereof from Holder to Maker; provided, however, that if such failure is not curable within such thirty (30) day period, then, so long as Maker commences to cure such failure within such thirty (30) day period and is continually and diligently attempting to cure to completion, such failure shall not be an Event of Default unless such failure remains uncured for one hundred twenty (120) days after such written notice to Maker; or
(d) if, at any time during the Extension Term, Gross Revenue for any calendar month shall be less than ninety-three percent (93%) of the amount of projected Gross Revenue for such month set forth in the applicable Budget; or
(e) the occurrence of any event that is deemed to be an Event of Default under any provision of this Note, the Mortgage, the Affiliate Guaranty any other Loan Document or any Additional Loan Document.
14. Acceleration . If at any time an Event of Default exists, the entire balance of principal, accrued interest and other sums owing hereunder shall, at the option of Holder, become at once due and payable without notice or demand. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default described in Section 13(d) hereof, Holder shall have the option, in its sole and absolute discretion, to either (a) exercise any remedies available to Holder under the Loan Documents, at law or in equity, or (b) require Maker to submit a new proposed budget for Holders approval. If Holder agrees to accept such new proposed budget, then such budget shall become the Budget for all purposes hereunder. If an Event of Default exists, Holder may exercise any right, power or remedy permitted by law or set forth herein or in the Mortgage or any other Loan Document.
15. Conditions Precedent . Maker hereby certifies and declares that all acts, conditions and things required to be done or performed or have happened precedent to the creation and issuance of this Note, and in order to constitute this Note the legal, valid and binding obligation of Maker, enforceable in accordance with the terms hereof, have been done or performed or have happened in due and strict compliance with all applicable laws.
16. Certain Waivers and Consents . Maker and all parties now or hereafter liable for the payment hereof, primarily or secondarily, directly or indirectly, and
whether as endorser, guarantor, surety, or otherwise, hereby severally (a) waive presentment, demand, protest, notice of protest and/or dishonor, and all other demands or notices of any sort whatever with respect to this Note, (b) consent to impairment or release of collateral, extensions of time for payment, and acceptance of partial payments before, at, or after maturity, (c) waive any right to require Holder to proceed against any security for this Note before proceeding hereunder, (d) waive diligence in the collection of this Note or in filing suit on this Note and (e) agree to pay all out-of-pocket costs and expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys fees, which may be actually incurred in the collection of this Note or any part thereof or in preserving, securing possession of and realizing upon any security for this Note.
17. Usury Savings Clause . The provisions of this Note and of all agreements between Maker and Holder are, whether now existing or hereinafter made, hereby expressly limited so that in no contingency or event whatsoever, whether by reason of acceleration of the maturity hereof, prepayment, demand for payment or otherwise, shall the amount paid, or agreed to be paid, to Holder for the use, forbearance or detention of the principal hereof or interest hereon, which remains unpaid from time to time, exceed the maximum amount permissible under applicable law. In particular, it is the intention of the parties hereto to conform strictly to Connecticut and Federal law, whichever is applicable. If as a result of any circumstance whatsoever, the performance or fulfillment of any provision hereof or of any other agreement between Maker and Holder pertaining to the subject matter hereof shall, at the time performance or fulfillment of such provision is due, involve or purport to require any payment in excess of the limits then prescribed by applicable law, then the obligation to be performed or fulfilled shall hereby be reduced to such limit as to be valid under such applicable law, and if as a result of any circumstance whatsoever, Holder should receive as interest under this Note an amount which would exceed the then highest lawful rate, the amount by which such interest payment would exceed such highest lawful rate shall be applied to the reduction of the principal balance owing hereunder without prepayment or penalty (or, at Holders option, be paid to Maker) and in no event shall be counted as interest. To the fullest extent permitted by then applicable law, the determination of the legal maximum amount of interest shall at any and all times be made by amortizing, prorating, allocating and spreading in equal parts over the period of the full stated term of this Note, all interest at any time contracted for, charged or received from Maker in connection with this Note and all other agreements between Maker and Holder pertaining to the subject matter hereof, so that the actual rate of interest on account of the indebtedness represented by this Note is uniform throughout the term hereof and complies with all applicable law.
18. Non-Recourse; Exceptions to Non-Recourse .
(a) Nothing contained in the Loan Documents shall be deemed to impair, limit or prejudice Holders rights in foreclosure proceedings or in any ancillary proceedings brought to facilitate Holders foreclosure on the Property or any portion thereof or to exercise any specific rights or remedies afforded Holder under any other provisions of the Loan Documents or by law or in equity, subject to the non-recourse provisions set forth below, to recover under any guarantee given in connection with the Loan or to pursue any personal liability of Maker or any Guarantor under the Guaranty Agreement, the Environmental Indemnity Agreement or the ERISA indemnity provisions of the Mortgage. Except as expressly hereinafter set forth, the recourse of Holder with respect to the obligations evidenced by this Note, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents (except for the Guaranty and the Environmental
Indemnity Agreement) shall be solely to the Property, Chattels and Intangible Personalty (as such terms are defined in the Mortgage). Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary contained in this Note, the Mortgage or in any other Loan Document, nothing shall be deemed in any way to impair, limit or prejudice the rights of Holder to collect or recover from Maker (but not any member, manager, officer, director or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing, with the exclusion of the Guarantors) and Guarantors: (i) damages or costs (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys fees) incurred by Holder as a result of any intentional waste by Maker; (ii) any condemnation award or insurance proceeds attributable to the Property which were not paid to Holder or used to restore the Property in accordance with the terms of the Mortgage; (iii) any Rents, profits, security deposits, advances, rebates, prepaid rents or other similar sums attributable to the Property collected by or for Maker (x) following an Event of Default under any Loan Document and not properly applied to the reasonable fixed and operating expenses of the Property, including, without limitation, payments due on this Note and other sums due under the Loan Documents or (y) to the extent not deposited into the Lockbox Account; (iv) any security deposits collected by or for Maker and not applied in accordance with the applicable Leases (as such term is defined in the Mortgage); (v) the amount of any accrued taxes, assessments, and/or utility charges affecting the Property (whether or not the same have been billed to Maker) that are either unpaid by Maker or advanced by Holder under the Mortgage, except, in respect of the Property, to the extent of any of the foregoing accruing after the Termination Date (as hereinafter defined) with respect to the Property; (vi) any sums expended by Holder in fulfilling the obligations of Maker, as lessor, under any Lease affecting the Property; (vii) the amount of any loss suffered by Holder (that would otherwise be covered by insurance and available to Holder in accordance with the Loan Documents) as a result of Makers failure to maintain any insurance required under the terms of any Loan Document; and (viii) losses, damages and costs (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys fees) incurred by Holder as a result of any fraud of material misrepresentation by Maker in connection with the Property or any of the Loan Documents. For the avoidance of doubt, the matters set forth in this paragraph (a) shall be fully recourse to Maker (but not any member, manager, officer, director or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing, with the exclusion of the Guarantors) and Guarantor. For the purposes of this Section 18(a), the Termination Date is, in respect of the Property, the earliest of (x) the date that Maker tenders to Holder or Holders designee a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure in respect of the Property, subject to no title exceptions other than real estate taxes and assessments, the Permitted Exceptions (as defined in the applicable Mortgage) and such additional exceptions approved by Holder pursuant to the Loan Documents or which are otherwise acceptable to Holder in its reasonable discretion, together with such ancillary conveyances, releases and other documentation that are customarily delivered in connection with a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure transaction, all in form reasonably satisfactory to Holder, and such deed-in-lieu of foreclosure is accepted by Holder in its sole discretion (y) the date that Maker tenders to Holder a stipulation to entry of judgment of foreclosure in respect of the Property, and (z) the date Holder, any Affiliate of Holder, or any other party takes title to the Property in connection with a foreclosure of the applicable Mortgage that encumbers the Property. If Maker elects to deliver a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure in respect of the Property, Holder shall retain the right to determine whether to accept such deed-in-lieu of foreclosure or to proceed with foreclosure proceedings and, upon Holder making such election, Maker shall execute and deliver to Holder an appropriate deed-in-lieu of foreclosure in respect of the Property, as Holder shall have elected; provided, however, that if Holder chooses to proceed with foreclosure proceedings in respect of the Property, the Termination Date shall nonetheless be the earliest of the date specified in clause (x), (y) and (z) above, provided further that if Maker thereafter fails to cooperate with
Holder in respect of Holders exercise of any and all remedies available at law or in equity to Holder (including, without limitation, foreclosure), then the Termination Date shall be the earlier of the date specified in clause (y) or (z) above.
(b) The agreement contained in this Section 18 to limit the personal liability of Maker to its interest in the Property, Chattels and Intangible Personalty shall become null and void and be of no further force and effect, and Maker (but not any member, manager, officer, director or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing, with the exclusion of the Guarantors) and Guarantors shall be personally liable for the repayment of the Secured Obligations (as such term is defined in the Mortgage) in the event (i) that the Property, or any part thereof or any interest therein, or any interest in Maker, or any of them, shall be further encumbered by a voluntary lien securing any obligation upon which Maker, or any of them, any direct or indirect general partner, manager or managing member such Maker, any Guarantor, any of the Mortgagor Control Persons (as defined in the Mortgage) or any principal or affiliate of Maker, or any of them, shall be personally liable for repayment, either as obligor or guarantor, (ii) of any breach or violation of Section 5.4, 5.5 or 5.7 of the Mortgage, (iii) that Maker forfeits the Property or the Chattels or any portion of the Property or Chattels due to criminal activity, (iv) any attempt by Maker, any Guarantor or any Mortgagor Owner Person (as defined in the Mortgage) to materially delay any foreclosure against the Property, Chattels and/or Intangible Personalty, or any portion of the Property, the Chattels and/or the Intangible Personalty or any other exercise by Holder of its remedies under the Loan Documents, which attempts shall (x) include, without limitation, (A) any claim made by Maker that any Loan Document is invalid or unenforceable to an extent that would preclude any such foreclosure or other exercise of remedies, (B) Maker filing a petition in bankruptcy, Maker acquiescing in an involuntary bankruptcy proceeding, Maker failing to oppose in good faith the entry of an order for relief pursuant to any involuntary bankruptcy filed against it, or Maker filing a petition or answer seeking any reorganization, arrangement, composition, readjustment, liquidation, dissolution or similar relief under the bankruptcy laws of the United States or under any other similar federal, state or other statute relating to relief from indebtedness (whether filed by or against Maker), or (C) the appointment of a receiver, trustee or liquidator by Maker, any Guarantor or any Mortgagor Owner Person with respect to Maker or the Property or any part thereof and (y) shall not include a defense to a foreclosure that is (A) not frivolous and is advanced in good faith and (B) based upon a default by Holder under terms of the Loan Documents, or (v) any execution, amendment, modification or early termination of any Lease of any Required Tenant made in violation of the Loan Documents. For the avoidance of doubt, no such termination of any Lease shall excuse Maker from the performance of its obligations under the Loan Documents. For purposes of the foregoing, affiliate shall have the meaning ascribed to the term Affiliate in the Mortgage.
19. Severability . If any provision hereof or of any other document securing or otherwise related to the indebtedness evidenced hereby is, for any reason and to any extent, deemed invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction or with respect to any person, entity or circumstances, then neither the remainder of the document in which such provision is contained, nor the application of such provision in respect of other persons, entities, or circumstances, nor any other document referred to herein, shall be affected by such invalidity or lack of enforceability, but, instead, shall be enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by law.
20. Transfer of Note . Each provision of this Note shall be and remain in full force and effect notwithstanding any negotiation or transfer hereof and any interest herein to any other Holder or participant.
21. Governing Law . Regardless of the place of its execution, this Note shall be construed and enforced in accordance with the substantive laws of the State of Connecticut.
22. Time of Essence . Time is of the essence of this Note.
23. Remedies Cumulative . The remedies provided to Holder in this Note, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents are cumulative and concurrent and may be exercised singly, successively or jointly against Maker, the Property, and other security, or against Guarantors or any obligor under, or guarantor of, this Note or the other Loan Documents, at the sole and absolute discretion of Holder.
24. No Waiver . Holder shall not by any act or omission be deemed to have waived any of its rights or remedies hereunder unless such waiver is in writing and signed by Holder and then only to the extent specifically set forth therein. A waiver of one event shall not be construed as continuing or as a bar to or waiver of any right or remedy granted to Holder hereunder in connection with a subsequent event.
25. Joint and Several Obligation . If Maker is more than one person or entity, then: (a) all persons or entities comprising Maker are jointly and severally liable for all of Makers obligations hereunder; (b) all representations, warranties and covenants made by Maker shall be deemed representations, warranties and covenants of each of the persons or entities comprising Maker; (c) any breach, Default or Event of Default by any of the persons or entities comprising Maker hereunder shall be deemed to be a breach, Default or Event of Default of Maker; and (d) any reference herein contained to the knowledge or awareness of Maker shall mean the knowledge or awareness of any of the persons or entities comprising Maker.
26. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL . MAKER AND HOLDER KNOWINGLY, IRREVOCABLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT EITHER MAKER OR HOLDER MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM BASED ON THIS NOTE, OR ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS NOTE, THE MORTGAGE, OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS OR ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT, COURSE OF DEALING, STATEMENT (WHETHER VERBAL OR WRITTEN) OR ACTIONS OF ANY PARTY HERETO OR TO ANY LOAN DOCUMENT. THIS PROVISION IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR MAKER AND HOLDER TO ENTER INTO THE LOAN TRANSACTION EVIDENCED BY THIS NOTE.
27. WAIVER OF PREPAYMENT RIGHT WITHOUT PREMIUM . EXCEPT AS EXPLICITLY SET FORTH HEREIN, MAKER HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE UNDER APPLICABLE LAW TO PREPAY THIS NOTE, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, WITHOUT PREPAYMENT PREMIUM, UPON ACCELERATION OF THE MATURITY DATE OF THIS NOTE, AND AGREES THAT, IF FOR ANY REASON A PREPAYMENT OF ALL OR ANY PART OF THIS NOTE IS MADE, WHETHER
VOLUNTARILY OR FOLLOWING ANY ACCELERATION OF THE MATURITY DATE OF THIS NOTE BY HOLDER ON ACCOUNT OF THE OCCURRENCE OF ANY EVENT OF DEFAULT ARISING FOR ANY REASON, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, AS A RESULT OF ANY PROHIBITED OR RESTRICTED TRANSFER, FURTHER ENCUMBRANCE OR DISPOSITION OF THE PROPERTY OR ANY PART THEREOF SECURING THIS NOTE, THEN MAKER SHALL BE OBLIGATED TO PAY, CONCURRENTLY WITH SUCH PREPAYMENT, THE PREPAYMENT PREMIUM PROVIDED FOR IN THIS NOTE OR, IN THE EVENT OF PREPAYMENT FOLLOWING ACCELERATION OF THE MATURITY DATE HEREOF WHEN THIS NOTE IS CLOSED TO PREPAYMENT, AS PROVIDED HEREIN AND IN THE MORTGAGE. MAKER HEREBY DECLARES THAT HOLDERS AGREEMENT TO MAKE THE LOAN AT THE INTEREST RATE AND FOR THE TERM SET FORTH IN THIS NOTE CONSTITUTES ADEQUATE CONSIDERATION, GIVEN INDIVIDUAL WEIGHT BY MAKER, FOR THIS WAIVER AND AGREEMENT.
[END OF TEXT]
IN WITNESS WHEREOF and intending to be legally bound, Maker has duly executed this Note as of the date first above written.

ARTICLE 4
MORTGAGORS AFFIRMATIVE COVENANTS
4.1 Payment of Note. Mortgagor shall pay all principal, interest and other sums payable under the Note or the other Loan Documents on the date when such payments are due, without notice or demand.
4.2 Performance of Other Obligations. Mortgagor shall promptly perform and comply with all other covenants, conditions and prohibitions required of Mortgagor by the terms of the Loan Documents.
4.3 Other Encumbrances. Mortgagor shall promptly perform and comply, in all material respects, with all covenants, conditions and prohibitions required of Mortgagor in connection with any Access Agreement and any other encumbrance affecting the Property, the Chattels or the Intangible Personalty, or any part thereof, or any interest therein, regardless of whether such other encumbrance is superior or subordinate to the lien hereof.
4.4 Payment of Taxes.
(a) Property Taxes . Unless Mortgagor is depositing money into escrow pursuant to Section 4.4(b) , Mortgagor shall (i) pay, before delinquency and before the imposition of any penalty or interest, all taxes and assessments, general or special, which may be levied or imposed at any time against Mortgagors interest and estate in the Property, the Chattels or the Intangible Personalty, and (ii) within ten (10) days after each payment of any such tax or assessment, Mortgagor will deliver to Mortgagee, without notice or demand, an official receipt for such payment. Unless Taxes are being paid by Mortgagee, Mortgagor shall provide Mortgagee with reasonably satisfactory evidence of the payment of all such taxes and assessments, general or special, which may be levied or imposed at any time against Mortgagors interest and estate in the Property, the Chattels or the Intangible Personalty within ten (10) days following any such payment.
(b) Deposit for Taxes . On the date hereof, Mortgagor shall deposit with Mortgagee an amount equal to 1/12th of the amount which Mortgagee estimates will be required to make the next annual payment of taxes, assessments and similar governmental charges referred to in this Section, multiplied by the number of whole or partial months that have elapsed since the date one month prior to the most recent due date for such taxes, assessments and similar governmental charges. Thereafter, with each monthly payment under the Note, Mortgagor shall deposit with Mortgagee an amount equal to 1/12th of the amount which Mortgagee estimates will be required to pay the next annual payment of taxes, assessments and similar governmental charges referred to in this Section. The purpose of these provisions is to provide Mortgagee with sufficient funds on hand to pay all such taxes, assessments and other governmental charges thirty (30) days before the date on which they become past due. If Mortgagee, in its sole discretion, determines that the funds escrowed hereunder are, or will be, insufficient, Mortgagor shall upon demand pay such additional sums as Mortgagee shall determine necessary and shall pay any increased monthly charges requested by Mortgagee. Provided no Event of Default exists hereunder, Mortgagee will apply the amounts so deposited to the payment of such taxes, assessments and other charges when due, but in no event will Mortgagee be liable for any interest on any amount so deposited, and any amount so deposited may be held and commingled with Mortgagees own funds.
(c) Intangible Taxes . If by reason of any statutory or constitutional amendment or judicial decision adopted or rendered after the date hereof, any tax, assessment or similar charge is imposed against the Note, Mortgagee, or any interest of Mortgagee in any real or personal property encumbered hereby, Mortgagor will pay such tax, assessment or other charge before delinquency and will indemnify Mortgagee against all loss, expense or diminution of income in connection therewith.
In the event Mortgagor is unable to do so, either for economic reasons or because the legal provisions or decisions creating such tax, assessment or charge forbid Mortgagor from doing so, then the Note will, at Mortgagees option, become due and payable in full upon thirty (30) days notice to Mortgagor.
(d) Right to Contest . Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section, Mortgagor will not be deemed to be in default solely by reason of Mortgagors failure to pay any tax, assessment or similar governmental charge so long as, in Mortgagees judgment, each of the following conditions is satisfied:
(i) Mortgagor is engaged in and diligently pursuing in good faith administrative or judicial proceedings appropriate to contest the validity or amount of such tax, assessment or charge;
(ii) Mortgagors payment of such tax, assessment or charge would necessarily and materially prejudice Mortgagors prospects for success in such proceedings;
(iii) Nonpayment of such tax, assessment, or charge will not result in the loss or forfeiture of any property encumbered hereby or any interest of Mortgagee therein; and
(iv) Mortgagor deposits with Mortgagee, as security for such payment which may ultimately be required, a sum equal to the amount of the disputed tax, assessment or charge plus the interest, penalties, advertising charges and other costs which Mortgagee estimates are likely to become payable if Mortgagors contest is unsuccessful. For the avoidance of doubt, the funds required to be deposited with Mortgagee under this paragraph (iv) shall be in addition to all taxes, assessments and other governmental charges that are not being contested and that are subject to the deposit provisions of Section 4.4(b) hereof.
If Mortgagee determines that any one or more of such conditions is not satisfied or is no longer satisfied, Mortgagor will pay the tax, assessment or charge in question, together with any interest and penalties thereon, within ten (10) days after Mortgagee gives notice of such determination.
4.5 Maintenance of Insurance.
(a) Coverages Required . Mortgagor shall maintain or cause to be maintained, with financially sound and reputable insurance companies or associations satisfactory to Mortgagee, all insurance required under the terms of the Insurance Agreement, and shall comply with each and every covenant and agreement contained in such Insurance Agreement. Mortgagor shall provide Mortgagee with reasonably satisfactory evidence of the payment of the premiums of all such insurance within five (5) business days following the any such payment.
(b) Renewal Policies . Not less than thirty (30) days prior to the expiration date of each insurance policy required pursuant to the Insurance Agreement, Mortgagor will deliver to Mortgagee either an appropriate renewal policy (or a certified copy thereof), together with evidence satisfactory to Mortgagee that the applicable premium has been prepaid.
(c) Deposit for Premiums . If an Event of Default exists or if Mortgagor shall fail to provide Mortgagee with evidence of insurance as and when required under this Mortgage and the Insurance Agreement, Mortgagor shall deposit with Mortgagee an amount equal to 1/12th of the amount which Mortgagee estimates will be required to make the next annual payments of the premiums for the policies of insurance referred to in this Section, multiplied by the number of whole and partial months which have elapsed since the date one month prior to the most recent policy anniversary date for each such policy. Thereafter, with each monthly payment under the Note, Mortgagor will deposit an amount equal to 1/12th of the amount which Mortgagee estimates will be required to pay the next required annual premium for each insurance policy referred to in this Section. The purpose of these provisions is to provide Mortgagee with sufficient funds on hand to pay all such premiums thirty (30) days before the date on which they become past due. If Mortgagee, in its sole discretion, determines that the funds escrowed hereunder are, or will be, insufficient, Mortgagor shall upon demand, pay such additional sums as Mortgagee shall determine as necessary and shall pay any increased monthly charges requested by Mortgagee. Provided no Event of Default exists hereunder, Mortgagee will apply the amounts so deposited to the payment of such insurance premiums when due, but in no event will Mortgagee be liable for any interest on any amounts so deposited, and the money so received may be held and commingled with Mortgagees own funds.
(d) Application of Hazard Insurance Proceeds . Mortgagor shall after learning thereof promptly notify Mortgagee of any damage or casualty to all or any portion of the Property or Chattels. Mortgagee may participate in all negotiations and appear and participate in all judicial or arbitration proceedings concerning any insurance proceeds which may be payable as a result of such casualty or damage, and may, in Mortgagees sole discretion, compromise or settle, in the names of both Mortgagor and Mortgagee, any claim for any such insurance proceeds; provided, however, that in any event any such compromise or settlement shall be subject to the prior consent of Mortgagee, which may be granted or withheld in Mortgagees discretion. Any such insurance proceeds shall be paid directly to Mortgagee and shall be applied first to reimburse Mortgagee for all out-of-pocket costs and expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys fees, actually incurred by Mortgagee in connection with the ascertainment and collection of such insurance proceeds. The balance, if any, of any insurance proceeds received by Mortgagee with respect to an insured damage or casualty shall, in Mortgagees sole discretion, either (i) be retained and applied by Mortgagee toward payment of the Secured Obligations, in such order and manner as Mortgagee deems appropriate, or (ii) be paid over, in whole or in part and subject to such conditions as Mortgagee may impose, to Mortgagor to pay for repairs or replacements necessitated by the damage or casualty; provided, however, that if all of the Secured Obligations have been performed or are discharged by the application of less than all of such insurance proceeds, then any remaining proceeds will be paid over to Mortgagor. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.5(d) , Mortgagee shall make any such insurance proceeds available to Mortgagor for restoration of the Property, provided, and on the following conditions: (A) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, (B) Mortgagor demonstrates to the reasonable satisfaction of Mortgagee that Mortgagor has the financial ability to pay all principal and interest required under the Note, and perform all of the other Secured Obligations, during the restoration of the Property from the proceeds of rent loss or business interruption insurance or otherwise, (C) the damage or casualty occurs prior to the last six (6) months of the term of the Loan and the restoration is capable of being completed prior to the stated maturity date of the Loan, (D) all insurance proceeds and other funds provided by Mortgagor for the restoration are released under escrow and construction funding arrangements reasonably satisfactory to Mortgagee, (E) the repair or restoration will return the Property to substantially the same size, design and utility as existed immediately prior to the damage or casualty, (F) in the event the proceeds of insurance are insufficient to pay by themselves for the restoration (as determined in good faith by Mortgagee), Mortgagor shall, prior to the commencement of any restoration work, deposit with Mortgagee within fifteen (15) days after the date on which the proceeds of insurance are received by Mortgagee such additional funds as in the good faith opinion of Mortgagee are necessary to complete the restoration; (G) Mortgagor undertakes and covenants and agrees (in writing) with Mortgagee to fund any and all deficiencies within fifteen (15) days after being notified in writing thereof and prior to the distribution of any further insurance proceeds, so that at all times the funds held by Mortgagee and remaining to be disbursed for purposes of the restoration shall be sufficient to complete the work; (H) the annual income from the Leases that are in existence as of the date hereof or executed in accordance with the provisions of this Mortgage and that will survive the restoration or repair of the Property produce a Debt Service Coverage Ratio of not less than 1.2 to 1.0, and Mortgagor demonstrates to Mortgagees reasonable satisfaction that Mortgagor will be able to attain Debt Service Coverage Ratio of at least 1.2 to 1.0 from Leases that are in existence as of the date hereof or executed in accordance with the provisions of this Mortgage within six (6) months after completion of the restoration; and (I) if any site plan amendment, variance, special use permit or other similar special approval or consent is required from any government authority or any other Person for such repair or restoration, Mortgagor shall obtain and deliver to Mortgagee such site plan amendment, variance, special use permit or other similar special approval or consent within one hundred eighty (180) days following such casualty or damage (but such one hundred eighty (180) day time period shall in all respects be subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.5(d) and shall not extend or otherwise modify any time periods in such foregoing provisions).
Mortgagee may, prior to the application of insurance proceeds, commingle them with Mortgagees own funds and otherwise act with regard to such proceeds as Mortgagee may determine in Mortgagees sole discretion. If Mortgagee applies the insurance proceeds to the Secured Obligations due to the failure of the conditions under clause (H) of this Section 4.5(d) to be satisfied, then Mortgagor may, upon written notice delivered to Mortgagee within thirty (30) days following such application of the insurance proceeds to the Secured Obligations, elect to prepay the full principal amount of the Loan and all other amounts due under the Loan Documents, together with all accrued but unpaid interest thereon, and all other Secured Obligations, without any prepayment premium or penalty, such prepayment to be made within one-hundred eighty (180) days following such application of the insurance proceeds; provided, however, that Mortgagor continues to pay and fulfill all of Mortgagors obligations under this Note, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents up to and including the date of such full prepayment. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.5 , in the event the insurance proceeds are less than $250,000 and there does not exist any Default or Event of Default, then (i) Mortgagor may compromise or settle the claim for such proceeds, (ii) the proceeds shall be paid directly to Mortgagor and (iii) Mortgagor shall undertake and complete the repair or restoration of the Property so as to return the Property to substantially the same size, design and utility as existed immediately prior to the damage or casualty and shall fund any deficiency in the event such proceeds are insufficient to complete such repair or restoration.
(e) Successors Rights . Any person who acquires title to the Property or the Chattels upon foreclosure hereunder will succeed to Mortgagors rights under all policies of insurance maintained pursuant to this Section.
4.6 Maintenance and Repair of the Property and Chattels; Contracts. Mortgagor shall at all times maintain the Property and the Chattels in good condition and repair, will diligently prosecute the completion of any building or other improvement which is at any time in the process of construction on the Property, and will promptly repair, restore, replace, or rebuild any part of the Property or the Chattels which may be affected by any casualty or any public or private taking or injury to the Property or the Chattels. All costs and expenses arising out of the foregoing shall be paid by Mortgagor whether or not the proceeds of any insurance or eminent domain shall be sufficient therefor. Mortgagor shall maintain access to and egress from the Property by public streets. Subject to the provisions of Section 4.15(b) , Mortgagor will comply with (or cause compliance with) all statutes, ordinances, and other governmental or quasi-governmental requirements and private covenants relating to the ownership, construction, use, or operation of the Property, including but not limited to, any zoning requirements, any environmental or ecological requirements and any requirements regarding access for persons with disabilities. Mortgagee and any Person authorized by Mortgagee may upon prior notice to Mortgagor enter and inspect the Property at all reasonable times, and may inspect the Chattels, wherever located, at all reasonable times. Mortgagor shall take all actions necessary or required under the Leases to effect the provisions of the immediately preceding sentence. Mortgagor shall maintain all public utility services (including, without limitation, water supply, storm and sanitary sewer facilities, and natural gas, electric, telephone, cable television and high speed Internet access facilities) necessary for the operation of the Property (including, without limitation, improvements constituting part of the Property) for its intended purposes, and, without limiting such maintenance requirement, shall maintain such services at the boundaries of the land constituting part of the Property. Mortgagor shall comply (or cause compliance with) with all requirements of any insurance company or inspection or rating bureau in respect of the Property, including, without limitation, any requirements for the continuation of any insurance coverage or the continuation thereof at premium rates. Mortgagor shall timely pay and perform in all material respects each of its obligations under or in connection with the Contracts. Mortgagor shall not, without Mortgagees consent, enter into any Contract that has a term in excess of one hundred eighty (180) days unless such Contract is terminable by Mortgagor (without penalty) on thirty (30) days notice, except for any Contract disclosed in the Lease Certificate. Mortgagor and none of the Mortgagor Control Persons shall enter into any contract or agreement that contravenes any of the Loan Documents or which provides or has the effect that the performance of the Loan Documents constitutes a default under such contract or agreement or results in the creation of any lien, security interest, other charge or encumbrance upon or with respect to its properties. Mortgagor shall perform, observe and fulfill, in all material respects, and shall cause Guarantors to perform, observe and fulfill, in all material respects, all of the obligations, covenants and conditions set forth in any agreement or instrument to which Mortgagor or Guarantors, as the case may be, or any of the properties, assets or revenues of Mortgagor or Guarantors, as the case may be, are bound, if the failure to perform, observe or fulfill any such obligation, covenant or condition would materially and adversely affect the properties, assets, operations or condition (financial or otherwise) of Mortgagor or Guarantors, as the case may be, or the ability of any party to the Loan Documents to perform such partys obligations under the Loan Documents.
4.7 Leases. Mortgagor shall timely pay and perform each of its obligations under or in connection with the Leases, and shall otherwise pay such sums and take such action as shall be necessary or required in order to maintain each of the Leases in full force and effect in accordance with its terms. Mortgagor shall within five (5) business days following receipt thereof, furnish to Mortgagee copies of any notices given to Mortgagor by the lessee under any Lease, alleging the default by Mortgagor in the timely payment or performance of its obligations under such Lease, or purporting to terminate or cancel any Lease prior to its stated expiration date, or requiring or demanding the expenditure of any sum by Mortgagor (or demanding the taking of any action by Mortgagor), and any subsequent communications related thereto. Mortgagor agrees that Mortgagee, in its sole discretion, five (5) days following notice to Mortgagor from Mortgagee and provided that Mortgagor fails to take action to perform its obligations under such Lease within the five (5) days following such notice to Mortgagor from Mortgagee, may advance any sum or take any action which Mortgagee reasonably believes is necessary or required to maintain the Leases in full force and effect, and all such sums advanced by Mortgagee, together with all costs and expenses incurred by Mortgagee in connection with action taken by Mortgagee pursuant to this Section, shall be due and payable by Mortgagor to Mortgagee upon demand, shall bear interest until paid at the Default Rate, and shall be secured by this Mortgage.

If all or any part of the Property is taken or damaged by eminent domain or any other public or private action, Mortgagor will notify Mortgagee promptly of the time and place of all meetings, hearings, trials, and other proceedings relating to such action. Mortgagee may participate in all negotiations and appear and participate in all judicial or arbitration proceedings concerning any award or payment which may be due as a result of such taking or damage, and may, in Mortgagees sole discretion, compromise or settle, in the names of both Mortgagor and Mortgagee, any claim for any such award or payment; provided, however, that in any event any such compromise or settlement shall be subject to the prior consent of Mortgagee, which may be granted or withheld in Mortgagees discretion. Any such award or payment shall be paid directly to Mortgagee and shall be applied first to reimburse Mortgagee for all costs and expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys fees, incurred by Mortgagee in connection with the ascertainment and collection of such award or payment. The balance, if any, of such award or payment received by Mortgagee with respect to a condemnation shall, in Mortgagees sole discretion, either (i) be retained and applied by Mortgagee toward payment of the Secured Obligations, in such order and manner as Mortgagee deems appropriate, or (ii) be paid over, in whole or in part and subject to such conditions as Mortgagee may impose, to Mortgagor for the purpose of restoring, repairing, or rebuilding any part of the Property affected by the taking or damage. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.8 , Mortgagee shall make any such award or payment available to Mortgagor for restoration of the Property, provided, and on the following conditions: (A) no Event of Default or monetary or material non-monetary Default shall have occurred and be continuing, (B) Mortgagor demonstrates to the reasonable satisfaction of Mortgagee that Mortgagor has the financial ability to pay all principal and interest required under the Note, and perform all of the other Secured Obligations, during the restoration of the Property from the proceeds of rent loss or business interruption insurance or otherwise, (C) the damage occurs prior to the last six (6) months of the term of the Loan and the restoration is capable of being completed prior to the stated maturity date of the Loan, (D) any condemnation award and other funds provided by Mortgagor for the restoration are released under escrow and construction funding arrangements reasonably satisfactory to Mortgagee, (E) the repair or restoration will return the Property to substantially the same size, design and utility as existed immediately prior to the damage, (F) in the event the condemnation award is insufficient to pay by itself for the restoration (as determined in good faith by Mortgagee), Mortgagor shall, prior to the commencement of any restoration work, deposit with Mortgagee within fifteen (15) days after the date on which the condemnation award is received by Mortgagee such additional funds as in the good faith opinion of Mortgagee are necessary to complete the restoration; (G) Mortgagor undertakes and covenants and agrees (in writing) with Mortgagee to fund any and all deficiencies within fifteen (15) days after being notified in writing thereof and prior to the distribution of any further portion of the condemnation award, so that at all times the funds held by Mortgagee and remaining to be disbursed for purposes of the restoration shall be sufficient to complete the work; (H) the annual income from the Leases that are in existence as of the date hereof or executed in accordance with the provisions of this Mortgage and that will survive the restoration or repair of the Property produce a Debt Service Coverage Ratio of not less than 1.2 to 1.0, and Mortgagor demonstrates to Mortgagees reasonable satisfaction that Mortgagor will be able to attain Debt Service Coverage Ratio of at least 1.2 to 1.0 from Leases that are in existence as of the date hereof or executed in accordance with the provisions of this Mortgage within six (6) months after completion of the restoration; and (I) if any site plan amendment, variance, special use permit or other similar special approval or consent is required from any government authority or any other Person for such repair or restoration, Mortgagor shall obtain and deliver to Mortgagee such site plan amendment, variance, special use permit or other similar special approval or consent within one hundred eighty (180) days following such taking or condemnation (but such one hundred eighty (180) day time period shall in all respects be subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.8 and shall not extend or otherwise modify any time periods in such foregoing provisions).
Mortgagee may, prior to the application of any condemnation award, commingle it with Mortgagees own funds and otherwise act with regard to such award as Mortgagee may determine in Mortgagees sole discretion. If Mortgagee applies the condemnation award to the Secured Obligations due to the failure of the conditions under clause (H) of this Section 4.8 to be satisfied, then Mortgagor may, upon written notice delivered to Mortgagee within thirty (30) days following such application of the condemnation award to the Secured Obligations, elect to prepay the full principal amount of the Loan and all other amounts due under the Loan Documents, together with all accrued but unpaid interest thereon, and all other Secured Obligations, without any prepayment premium or penalty, such prepayment to be made within one-hundred eighty (180) days following such application of the condemnation award; provided, however, that Mortgagor continues to pay and fulfill all of Mortgagors obligations under this Note, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents up to and including the date of such full prepayment. If this Mortgage has been foreclosed prior to Mortgagees receipt of such award or payment, Mortgagee may nonetheless retain such award or payment to the extent required to reimburse Mortgagee for all costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys fees, incurred in connection therewith, and to discharge any deficiency remaining with respect to the Secured Obligations.
Mortgagee will have no obligation to see to the proper application of any proceeds paid over to Mortgagor, nor will any such proceeds received by Mortgagee bear interest or be subject to any other charge for the benefit of Mortgagor.

Mortgagor will keep the Property free and clear of all liens and claims of liens by contractors, subcontractors, mechanics, laborers, materialmen, and other such persons, and will cause any recorded statement of any such lien to be released of record or bonded off within sixty (60) days after the recording thereof Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, however, Mortgagor will not be deemed to be in default under this Section if and so long as Mortgagor (a) contests in good faith the validity or amount of any asserted lien and diligently prosecutes or defends an action appropriate to obtain a binding determination of the disputed matter, (b) provides Mortgagee with such security as Mortgagee may reasonably require to protect Mortgagee against all loss, damage and expense, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys fees, which Mortgagee might incur if the asserted lien is determined to be valid (which security may, at the option of Mortgagor, be in the form of a bond over such lien, provided that such bond either removes any such lien of record or prevents the filing of any such lien of record).
4.10 Defense of Actions. Mortgagor will defend, at Mortgagors expense, any action, proceeding or claim which affects any property encumbered hereby or any interest of Mortgagee in such property or in the Secured Obligations, and Mortgagor will indemnify and hold Mortgagee harmless from all loss, damage, cost, or expense, including attorneys fees, which Mortgagee may incur in connection therewith.
4.11 Expenses of Enforcement. Mortgagor will pay all costs and expenses, which Mortgagee may incur in connection with any effort or action (whether or not litigation or foreclosure is involved) to enforce or defend Mortgagees rights and remedies under any of the Loan Documents, including, but not limited to, all attorneys fees, appraisal fees, consultants fees, and other expenses incurred by Mortgagee in securing title to or possession of, and realizing upon, any security for the Secured Obligations. All such costs and expenses (together with interest thereon at the Default Rate from the date incurred) shall constitute part of the Secured Obligations, and may be included in the computation of the amount owed to Mortgagee for purposes of foreclosing or otherwise enforcing this Mortgage.
4.12 Financial Reports. Mortgagor shall furnish to Mortgagee (a) within ninety (90) days following the end of each fiscal year of Mortgagor, Mortgagors quarterly and annual operating statements for the Property as of the end of and for the preceding quarter and fiscal year, as applicable, in each case prepared against the budget for such fiscal year, as may be applicable, (b) contemporaneously with the delivery of each of such operating statements of the Property, a rent roll certified, signed and dated by Mortgagor detailing the names of all tenants under the Leases, the portion of the improvements on the Property occupied by each tenant, the rent and any other charges payable under each Lease and the term of each Lease, (c) the annual balance sheet and profit and loss statement of Mortgagor and an annual balance sheet of each Guarantor and (d) the federal and state tax returns of each Guarantor not later than the date that is ten (10) days following the date that such federal and state tax returns are filed.
The financial statements and reports described in (a) and (c) above shall be in such form and in such detail as Mortgagee may require, shall be prepared on a tax basis (with respect to Mortgagor only) and shall be certified as true and correct by Mortgagor or each Guarantor, as may be applicable (or if required by Mortgagee, after the occurrence of an Event of Default, by an independent certified public accountant acceptable to Mortgagee). Mortgagor shall file and pay its annual tax returns and taxes in a timely manner. Mortgagor shall also furnish or cause to be furnished to Mortgagee within forty-five (45) after Mortgagees request, any other financial reports or statements of Mortgagor, including, without limitation, balance sheets, profit and loss statements, tax returns (within fifteen (15) days after filing with the applicable governmental authority), other financial statements, and certified rent rolls, required under any of the Loan Documents, requested by any regulatory or governmental authority exercising jurisdiction over Mortgagee, certified as true and correct by Mortgagor. Following the occurrence of any Event of Default, Mortgagor shall deliver to Mortgagee the items required in (a) and (b) above on a monthly basis. Mortgagors financial statements will be prepared by Shapiro, Goldstein and Moses or Kimmel Blau or a reasonable comparable firm selected by Mortgagor, and reasonably approved by Mortgagee.
4.13 Priority of Leases. To the extent Mortgagor has the right, under the terms of any Lease, to make such Lease subordinate to the lien hereof, Mortgagor will, at Mortgagees request and Mortgagors expense, take such action as may be reasonably required to effect such subordination. Conversely, Mortgagor will, at Mortgagees request and Mortgagors expense, take such action as may be necessary to subordinate the lien hereof to any future Lease designated by Mortgagee. The standard form of Lease used by Mortgagor shall provide that the Lease is subject and subordinate to the Mortgage and all future mortgages affecting the Property. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, however, Mortgagee shall provide an SNDA, in Mortgagees standard form, for each Lease that does not require Mortgagees approval under this Mortgage or that has been approved by Mortgagee; provided, however, that if any tenant under any such Lease requests a different form of such an agreement or modifications to Mortgagees standard form of such agreement, then Mortgagee shall use commercially reasonable efforts to negotiate a form of such an agreement that is mutually acceptable to Mortgagee and such tenant. In no event, however, shall Mortgagee be required to enter into a form of such agreement that is not commercially reasonably acceptable to Mortgagee.
4.14 Inventories; Assembly of Chattels. Mortgagor shall, from time to time at request of Mortgagee, deliver to Mortgagee a current inventory of the Chattels and the Intangible Personalty, in such detail as Mortgagee may require. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default hereunder, Mortgagor will at Mortgagees request assemble the Chattels and make them available to Mortgagee at any place designated by Mortgagee which is reasonably convenient to both parties.
4.15 Compliance with Laws, Existence, Etc. (a) Mortgagor shall comply in all material respects with all applicable laws, rules, regulations and orders and other governmental or quasi-governmental requirements and private covenants, such compliance to include, without limitation, maintaining all Permits and paying before the same become delinquent all taxes, assessments and governmental charges imposed upon Mortgagor or the Property. Mortgagor shall maintain all Permits necessary or desirable for the operation, ownership, use, development, occupancy and maintenance of the Property for its current use, and without limiting this covenant of Mortgagor, Mortgagor shall make application for renewals of any of the Permits prior to the expiration thereof.
Mortgagor shall, promptly after receiving notice thereof, notify Mortgagee of any litigation, action, proceeding or investigation against Mortgagor or any Mortgagor Control Person or the Property before any court, governmental or quasi-governmental arbitrator or other authority and, upon reasonable request of Mortgagee, from time to time provide Mortgagee with status or other information in respect thereof. Mortgagor and each Mortgagor Control Person shall do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve, renew and keep in full force and effect its existence as a limited liability company, corporation or other entity, as may be applicable, and to maintain its authorization to perform the obligations under the Loan Documents. Neither Mortgagor nor any Mortgagor Control Person shall amend or modify its organizational documents so as to contravene any of the Loan Documents or to prevent the observance of the obligations under the Loan Documents. Mortgagor and each Mortgagor Control Person shall comply in material respects with all applicable laws, rules, regulations and orders and other governmental or quasi-governmental requirements, and shall obtain all authorizations, approvals and consents from, and shall make all notices and filings with, any court, governmental, authority or regulatory body, in respect of its right and ability to perform, or cause the performance of, the obligations under the Loan Documents.

(b) Right to Contest . Notwithstanding any other provision of this Mortgage, Mortgagor will not be deemed to be in default solely by reason of Mortgagors failure to comply with any applicable law, rule, regulation or order so long as, in Mortgagees judgment, each of the following conditions is satisfied:
(i) Mortgagor is engaged in and diligently pursuing in good faith administrative or judicial proceedings appropriate to contest the validity or applicability of such law, rule, regulation or order; and
(ii) Noncompliance with any such law, rule, regulation or order will not result in the loss or forfeiture of any property encumbered hereby or any interest of Mortgagee therein or result in any fines or other punitive actions or any loss or impairment of insurance coverage; and
(iii) Mortgagor deposits with Mortgagee, as security for any payment or performance which may ultimately be required, a sum equal to the amount of any fine, assessment or charge plus the interest, penalties, and other costs which Mortgagee reasonably estimates are likely to become payable if Mortgagors contest is unsuccessful.
If Mortgagee determines that any one or more of such conditions is not satisfied or is no longer satisfied, then Mortgagor shall comply with the law, rule, regulation or order in question, within thirty (30) days after Mortgagee gives notice of such determination.

Mortgagor will also, within ten (10) days after any request by Mortgagee, deliver to Mortgagee a signed and acknowledged statement certifying to Mortgagee, or to any proposed transferee of the Secured Obligations, (a) the balance of principal, interest, and other sums then outstanding under the Note and the other Loan Documents and (b) whether Mortgagor claims to have any offsets or defenses with respect to the Secured Obligations and, if so, the nature of such offsets or defenses.
4.20 Costs of Closing. Mortgagor shall on demand pay directly or reimburse Mortgagee for any costs or expenses reasonably incurred in connection with the closing of the Loan, including, but not limited to, fees of counsel for Mortgagee and costs and expenses for which invoices were not available at the closing of such loan, or costs and expenses which are incurred by Mortgagee after such closing. All such costs and expenses (together with interest thereon at the Default Rate from the date of demand by Mortgagee) shall constitute a part of the Secured Obligations, and may be included in the computation of the amount owed to Mortgagee for purposes of foreclosing or otherwise enforcing this Mortgage.
4.21 Fund for Electronic Transfer. All monthly payments of principal and interest on the Note, escrow deposits and other amounts due under this Mortgage or the other Loan Documents shall be made by Mortgagor by electronic funds transfer from a bank account established and maintained by Mortgagor for such purpose.

Any substitute or replacement Property Manager or any other change in Property Manager shall be subject to the prior written consent of Mortgagee in its sole discretion.
Mortgagor shall not permit any amendment to or modification of any Management Agreement, or management of the Property by any Person other than Mortgagor or Property Manager, without the prior written consent of Mortgagee. Any such Property Manager shall execute a Subordination Agreement in respect of its Management Agreement in form and substance satisfactory to Mortgagee.
4.24 Cash Management Lockbox.
(a) At or prior to the closing of the Loan, Mortgagee and Mortgagor shall enter into the Cash Management Agreement, pursuant to which Mortgagor and Mortgagee shall establish a lockbox account ( Lockbox Account ) into which all proceeds and revenues from the Property will be deposited, and a cash collateral account ( Cash Collateral Account ), into which such proceeds and revenues may be swept pursuant to Section 4.24(f) below, at a bank (the Lockbox Bank ) selected by Mortgagee, but reasonably acceptable to Mortgagor.
(b) Mortgagor shall, or shall cause each tenant at the Property and all other persons and/or entities that make payments in respect of the Property to, remit all amounts due with respect to the Property directly to a lockbox maintained by the Lockbox Bank or to wire such amounts directly into the Lockbox Account. Mortgagor and the Property Manager shall promptly deposit into the Lockbox Account any checks or payments they receive from time to time, notwithstanding such instructions to the tenants and such other person and/or entities, and Mortgagor and Property Manager shall hold any such checks or payments in trust for the benefit of Mortgagee until such checks or amounts are deposited into the Lockbox Account.
(c) The Lockbox Bank and the Servicer retained by Mortgagee to service the Loan shall be authorized and empowered to endorse any and all checks from tenants solely for deposit into the Lockbox Account.
(d) The Lockbox Account and the Cash Collateral Account shall be in the name of Mortgagee or Servicer, as secured party (or agent for secured party), and shall be under the sole dominion and control of Mortgagee. Mortgagor shall grant Mortgagee a first priority security interest in the Lockbox Account and Cash Collateral Account and shall take all actions requested by Mortgagee to perfect such security interest.
(e) Amounts on deposit in the Lockbox Account shall be swept daily into an operating account (the Operating Account ) maintained by Mortgagor unless and until Servicer receives notice from Mortgagee that a Triggering Event (as defined below) has occurred, in which event the cash flow sweep described in Section 4.24(f) below shall apply.
(f) Upon the occurrence of any Triggering Event, Mortgagee, at its option, may cause Servicer to daily sweep 100% of all proceeds and revenues from the Property in the Lockbox Account into the Cash Collateral Account, and Mortgagee shall apply the same, to principal, interest and/or any other amounts due Mortgagee under the Loan Documents and to the costs and expenses of the operation and maintenance of the Property in such order as Mortgagee shall elect. Each of the following shall constitute a Triggering Event : (i) a Default under, and as defined in, the Loan Documents; (ii) an Event of Default under, and as defined in, the Loan Documents; or (iii) the Trigger Event Debt Service Coverage Ratio shall be less than 1.20 to 1.00.
(g) With respect to the first two (2) Triggering Events only, following the cure of any Default or Event of Default (that is accepted by Mortgagee in its sole discretion) with respect to which Mortgagee has notified Servicer that a Triggering Event has occurred or provided that the Property and the Additional Properties have achieved a Trigger Event Debt Service Coverage Ratio of at least 1.20 to 1.00, for two (2) consecutive quarters, as applicable, and after Mortgagee has applied all proceeds and revenues as described above, Mortgagee will release all excess amounts remaining in the Cash Collateral Account to Mortgagor, and Servicer will resume sweeping proceeds from the Lockbox Account into the Operating Account as provided in Section 4.24(e) above. For the avoidance of doubt, Mortgagor shall have no right to cure a Triggering Event following the second Triggering Event and any subsequent Triggering Event shall continue until such time as all principal, interest and all other amounts due and payable to Mortgagee under this Mortgage and the other Loan Documents have been paid or repaid in full, as applicable.

(ii) There is no Event of Default at the time of such transfer;
(iii) If a change in the Property Manager for the Property (not a change in the manager or managing member of Mortgagor) will result from such transfer, Mortgagor shall enter into a Management Agreement with a Property Manager that has reasonably satisfactory experience operating and leasing property similar to the Property and that has a term no greater than one (1) year, may be cancelled on 30-days written notice (without cause and without any cancellation fee or charge), and which provides that the Property Manager shall subordinate its fees to the payment of the Loan, and otherwise complies with the terms of the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, Section 4.23 hereof);
(iv) Such Principal shall transfer an equal percentage of such Principals ownership interest in each of the other Borrowers such that each of the Principals percentage ownership interests of each of the Borrowers (including, without limitation, Mortgagor) shall be identical in respect of each other Borrower (including, without limitation, Mortgagor) both prior to and following any such transfer;

(vii) Paul Cooper, Jeffrey Ravetz and Louis Sheinker, if living, shall remain Guarantors, subject to the provisions of Section 4.32 , and if pursuant to Section 4.32 , any one or more of such Guarantors has been replaced, such replacement Guarantor shall remain a Guarantor subject to the provisions of Section 4.32 ; and
(viii) Mortgagor shall pay for all of Mortgagees costs and expenses associated with such transfer, including without limitation, attorneys fees charged by Mortgagees staff counsel or special counsel, whether or not such transfer is consummated.
Notwithstanding anything to the foregoing, transfers of title or interests (including membership interests) under any trust or will or testament or applicable laws of descent or intestacy shall be permitted so long as the provisions of paragraph (i) of this Section 5.4(b) are satisfied. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, membership interest in Mortgagor may be freely transferred between the Principals, any lineal descendent of any Principals, any spouse of any Principal or any such lineal descendent, and/or one or more of any combination of the foregoing, without Mortgagees consent, (i) provided any of the Principals individually or all of the Principals together continue to be in control and manage each of the Borrowers, and (ii) the Principals, either individually or together, shall maintain a minimum of 5% ownership interest in each of the Borrowers.

Mortgagor will neither create nor permit any lien, security interest or encumbrance against the Chattels or Intangible Personalty or any part thereof or interest therein, other than the liens and security interests created by the Loan Documents, without the prior written consent of Mortgagee, which may be withheld for any reason.
5.6 Assessments Against the Property. Unless required by law, Mortgagor will not, without the prior written approval of Mortgagee, which may not be unreasonably withheld, consent to the creation of any so-called special districts, special improvement districts, benefit assessment districts or similar districts, or any other body or entity of any type, or unless required by law, consent to the occurrence of any other event, that would or might result in the imposition of any additional taxes, assessments or other monetary obligations or burdens on the Property, and this provision shall serve as RECORD NOTICE to any such district or districts or any governmental entity under whose authority such district or districts exist or are being formed that, should Mortgagor or any other Person include all or any portion of the Property in such district or districts, whether formed or in the process of formation, without first obtaining Mortgagees express written consent, the rights of Mortgagee in the Property pursuant to this Mortgage or following any foreclosure of this Mortgage, and the rights of any Person to whom Mortgagee might transfer the Property following a foreclosure of this Mortgage, shall be senior and superior to any taxes, charges, fees, assessments or other impositions of any kind or nature whatsoever, or liens (whether statutory, contractual or otherwise) levied or imposed, or to be levied or imposed, upon the Property or any portion thereof as a result of inclusion of the Property in such district or districts.

Mortgagor shall indemnify, protect, defend, and hold Mortgagee harmless from and against any and all losses, liabilities, damages, claims, judgments, costs, and expenses (including, without limitation attorneys fees and costs incurred in the investigation, defense, and settlement of claims and in obtaining any individual ERISA exemption or state administrative exception that may be required, in Mortgagees sole and absolute discretion) that Mortgagee may incur, directly or indirectly, as the result of the breach by Mortgagor of any warranty or representation set forth in Section 3.3(bb) hereof or the breach by Mortgagor of any covenant contained in this Section.

MORTGAGEES REMEDIES
Immediately upon or any time that an Event of Default exists, Mortgagee may exercise any remedy available at law or in equity, including, but not limited to, those listed below and those listed in the other Loan Documents, in such sequence or combination as Mortgagee may determine in Mortgagees sole discretion:
7.1 Performance of Defaulted Obligations. Mortgagee may make any payment or perform any other obligation under the Loan Documents which either Mortgagor or any Guarantor has failed to make or perform, and Mortgagor hereby irrevocably appoints Mortgagee as the true and lawful attorney-in-fact for Mortgagor to make any such payment and perform any such obligation in the name of Mortgagor. All payments made and expenses (including attorneys fees) incurred by Mortgagee in this connection, together with interest thereon at the Default Rate from the date paid or incurred until repaid, will be part of the Secured Obligations and will be immediately due and payable by Mortgagor to Mortgagee. In lieu of advancing Mortgagees own funds for such purposes, Mortgagee may use any funds of Mortgagor which may be in Mortgagees possession, including, but not limited to, insurance or condemnation proceeds and amounts deposited for taxes, insurance premiums or other purposes.
7.2 Specific Performance and Injunctive Relief. Notwithstanding the availability of legal remedies, Mortgagee will be entitled to obtain specific performance, mandatory or prohibitory injunctive relief, or other equitable relief requiring Mortgagor or Guarantors to cure or refrain from repeating any Default.
7.3 Acceleration of Secured Obligations. Mortgagee may, without notice or demand, declare all of the Secured Obligations immediately due and payable in full.
7.4 Suit for Monetary Relief. Subject to the non-recourse provisions of the Note, with or without accelerating the maturity of the Secured Obligations, Mortgagee may sue from time to time for any payment due under any of the Loan Documents, or for money damages resulting from Mortgagors default under any of the Loan Documents.
7.5 Possession of the Property. To the extent permitted by law, Mortgagee may enter and take possession of the Property without seeking or obtaining the appointment of a receiver, may employ a managing agent for the Property, and may lease or rent all or any part of the Property, either in Mortgagees name or in the name of Mortgagor, and may collect the rents, issues, and profits of the Property. Any revenues collected by Mortgagee under this Section will be applied first toward payment of all expenses (including attorneys fees) incurred by Mortgagee, together with interest thereon at the Default Rate from the date incurred until repaid, and the balance, if any, will be applied against the Secured Obligations in such order and manner as Mortgagee may elect in its sole discretion.
7.6 Enforcement of Security Interests. Mortgagee may exercise all rights of a secured party under the Code with respect to the Chattels and the Intangible Personalty, including but not limited to taking possession of, holding, and selling the Chattels and enforcing or otherwise realizing upon any accounts and general intangibles. Any requirement for reasonable notice of the time and place of any public sale, or of the time after which any private sale or other disposition is to be made, will be satisfied by Mortgagees giving of such notice to Mortgagor at least five (5) days prior to the time of any public sale or the time after which any private sale or other intended disposition is to be made.
7.7 Foreclosure Against the Property.
(a) Mortgagee may:
(i) institute proceedings for the complete foreclosure of this Mortgage, in which case the Property may be sold for cash or credit in one or more parcels, and in such order as Mortgagee shall determine;
(ii) with or without entry and, to the extent permitted, and pursuant to the procedures provided by, applicable law, institute proceedings for the partial foreclosure of this Mortgage for the portion of the Secured Obligations then due and payable, subject to the lien of this Mortgage continuing unimpaired and without loss of priority so as to secure the balance of the Secured Obligations not then due; and
(iii) sell the Property or any part thereof and all estate, claim, demand, right, title and interest of Mortgagor therein, pursuant to power of sale or otherwise, at one or more sales, in whole or in parcels, at such time and place, upon such terms and after such notice thereof as may be required or permitted by law, and in the event of a sale, by foreclosure or otherwise, of less than all of the Property, this Mortgage shall continue as a lien on the remaining portion of the Property.
Any real estate sold pursuant to any writ of execution issued on a judgment obtained by virtue of the Note or this Mortgage, may be sold in one parcel, as an entirety, or in such parcels, and in such manner or order as Mortgagee, in its sole discretion may elect.
(b) All fees, costs and expenses of any kind incurred by Mortgagee in connection with foreclosure of this Mortgage, including, without limitation, the costs of any appraisals of the Property obtained by Mortgagee, the cost of any title reports or abstracts, all costs of any receivership for the Property advanced by Mortgagee, and all attorneys and consultants fees and expenses incurred by Mortgagee, shall constitute a part of the Secured Obligations and may be included as part of the amount owing from Mortgagor to Mortgagee at any foreclosure sale.
(c) The proceeds of any sale under this Section shall be applied:
First : To the payment of the costs and expenses of any such sale, including, without limitation, compensation to Mortgagee, its agents and counsel, and of any judicial proceedings, including, without limitation, the costs and legal expenses of Mortgagee in foreclosing or otherwise enforcing this Mortgage, and of all expenses, liabilities and advances made or incurred by Mortgagee under this Mortgage, together with interest at the Default Rate, and all taxes or assessments, except any taxes, assessments or other charges subject to which the Property shall have been sold.
Second : To the payment of the whole amount of the Secured Obligations then due, owing or unpaid, with interest on the unpaid Secured Obligations at the Default Rate from and after the happening of any Event of Default until the same is paid.
Third : To the payment of any other sums required to be paid by Mortgagor pursuant to any provision of this Mortgage, the Note and all other Loan Documents.
Fourth : To the payment of the surplus, if any, to whosoever may be lawfully entitled to receive the same.
Mortgagee and any receiver or custodian of the Property or any part thereof shall be liable to account for only those rents, issues and profits actually received by it.
(d) Mortgagee may adjourn from time to time any sale to be made under or by virtue of this Mortgage by announcement at the time and place appointed for such sale or for such adjourned sale or sales; and, except as otherwise provided by any applicable provision of law, Mortgagee, without further notice or publication, may make such sale at the time and place to which the same shall be so adjourned.
(e) Upon the completion of any sale or sales made by Mortgagee under or by virtue of this Section 7.7 , Mortgagee, or any officer of any court empowered to do so, shall execute and deliver to the accepted purchaser or purchasers a good and sufficient instrument, or good and sufficient instruments, granting, conveying, assigning and transferring all estate, right, title and interest in and to the property and rights sold. Mortgagee is hereby irrevocably appointed the true and lawful attorney-in-fact of Mortgagor (coupled with an interest), in its name and stead, to make all necessary conveyances, assignments, transfers and deliveries of the Property and rights so sold and for that purpose Mortgagee may execute all necessary instruments of conveyance, assignment, transfer and delivery, and may substitute one or more persons or entities with like power, Mortgagor hereby ratifying and confirming all that its said attorney or such substitute or substitutes shall lawfully do by virtue hereof. Nevertheless, Mortgagor, if so requested by Mortgagee, shall ratify and confirm any such sale or sales by executing and delivering to Mortgagee or to such purchaser or purchasers all such instruments as may be advisable, in the judgment of Mortgagee, for such purpose, and as may be designated in such request. Any such sale or sales made under or by virtue of this Section 7.7 , whether made under the power of sale herein granted or under or by virtue of judicial proceedings or of a judgment or decree of foreclosure and sale, shall operate to divest all the estate, right, title, interest, claim and demand whatsoever, whether at law or in equity, of Mortgagor in and to the properties and rights so sold, and shall be a perpetual bar both at law and in equity against Mortgagor and against any and all persons or entities claiming or who may claim the same, or any part thereof, either from, through or under Mortgagor.
(f) Upon sale made under or by virtue of this Section 7.7 (whether made under the power of sale herein granted or under or by virtue of judicial proceedings or of a judgment or decree of foreclosure and sale), Mortgagee may bid for and acquire the Property or any part thereof and in lieu of paying cash therefor may take settlement for the purchase price by crediting upon the Secured Obligations the net sale price after deducting therefrom the expenses of the sale and the costs of the action and any other sums which Mortgagee is authorized to deduct under this Mortgage.
(g) Subject to the provisions of Section 18 of the Note and Section 9.21 of this Mortgage, the obligation of this Mortgage and of the Note shall continue until the Secured Obligations are paid in full notwithstanding any action or actions or partial foreclosure which may be brought to recover any amount or amounts for installments of principal, interest, taxes, assessments, water and sewer charges, rents and rates or insurance or other sums or charges due and payable under the provisions of this Mortgage.
(h) No recovery of any judgment by Mortgagee and no levy of an execution under any judgment upon the Property or upon any other property of Mortgagor shall affect in any manner or to any extent, the lien of this Mortgage upon the Property or any part thereof, or any liens, rights, powers or remedies of Mortgagee hereunder, but such liens, rights, powers and remedies of Mortgagee shall continue unimpaired as before, and notwithstanding any statutory rate of interest applicable with respect to judgments, after the entering of execution of any judgment, the Secured Obligations shall bear interest at the Default Rate until the Secured Obligations shall have been paid in full.
(i) In the event of a foreclosure of this Mortgage or the succession by Mortgagee to the interests of Mortgagor hereunder, the purchaser of the Property or such successor shall succeed to all rights of Mortgagor, including any right to proceeds of insurance and to unearned premiums, and in and to all policies or certificates of insurance assigned and delivered to Mortgagee pursuant to this Mortgage.
(j) Any assignee of this Mortgage and the Note shall take the same free and clear of all offsets, counterclaims and defenses of any nature (except for payments actually made) whatsoever which Mortgagor may have against any assignor of this Mortgage and the Note and no such offset, counterclaim or defense (except for payments actually made) shall be interposed or asserted by Mortgagor in any action or proceeding brought by any such assignee upon this Mortgage and/or the Note and any such right to interpose or assert any such offset, counterclaim or defense in any such action or proceeding is hereby expressly waived by Mortgagor.
(k) In any action or proceeding to foreclose this Mortgage, or to recover or collect the Secured Obligations, the provisions of law respecting the recovery of costs, disbursements and allowances shall also be applicable.
(l) Nothing in this Section dealing with foreclosure procedures or specifying particular actions to be taken by Mortgagee shall be deemed to contradict or add to the requirements and procedures now or hereafter specified by Connecticut law, and any such inconsistency shall be resolved in favor of Connecticut law applicable at the time of foreclosure.
7.8 Appointment of Receiver. To the extent permitted by law, Mortgagee shall be entitled, as a matter of absolute right and without regard to the value of any security for the Secured Obligations or the solvency of any person liable therefor, to the appointment of a receiver for the Property upon ex-parte application to any court of competent jurisdiction. Mortgagor waives any right to any hearing or notice of hearing prior to the appointment of a receiver. Such receiver and its agents shall be empowered, but shall not be obligated, to (a) take possession of the Property and any businesses conducted by Mortgagor or any other person thereon and any business assets used in connection therewith, (b) exclude Mortgagor and Mortgagors agents, servants, and employees from the Property, (c) collect the rents, issues, profits, and income therefrom, (d) complete any construction which may be in progress, (e) do such maintenance and make such repairs and alterations as the receiver deems necessary, (f) use all stores of materials, supplies, and maintenance equipment on the Property and replace such items at the expense of the receivership estate, (g) pay all taxes and assessments against the Property and the Chattels, all premiums for insurance thereon, all utility and other operating expenses, and all sums due under any prior or subsequent encumbrance, and (h) generally do anything which Mortgagor could legally do if Mortgagor were in possession of the Property.
All expenses incurred by the receiver or its agents shall constitute a part of the Secured Obligations. Any revenues collected by the receiver shall be applied first to the expenses of the receivership, including attorneys fees incurred by the receiver and by Mortgagee, together with interest thereon at the Default Rate from the date incurred until repaid, and the balance shall be applied toward the Secured Obligations in such order or manner as Mortgagee may in its sole discretion elect or in such other manner as the court may direct. Unless sooner terminated with the express consent of Mortgagee, any such receivership will continue until the Secured Obligations have been discharged in full, or until title to the Property has passed after foreclosure sale and all applicable periods of redemption have expired.
7.9 Right to Make Repairs, Improvements. Should any part of the Property come into the possession of Mortgagee, after an Event of Default, Mortgagee may, but shall not be obligated, to use, operate, and/or make repairs, alterations, additions and improvements to the Property for the purpose of preserving it or its value. Mortgagor covenants to promptly reimburse and pay to Mortgagee, at the place where the Note is payable, or at such other place as may be designated by Mortgagee in writing, the amount of all reasonable expenses (including the cost of any insurance, taxes, or other charges) incurred by Mortgagee in connection with its custody, preservation, use or operation of the Property, together with interest thereon from the date incurred by Mortgagee at the Default Rate, and all such expenses, costs, taxes, interest, and other charges shall be a part of the Secured Obligations. It is agreed, however, except to the extent arising out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Mortgagee or its agents, that the risk of accidental loss or damage to the Property is undertaken by Mortgagor and Mortgagee shall have no liability whatsoever for decline in value of the Property, for failure to obtain or maintain insurance, or for failure to determine whether any insurance ever in force is adequate as to amount or as to the risks insured.
7.10 Surrender of Insurance. Mortgagee may surrender the insurance policies maintained pursuant to the terms hereof, or any part thereof, and receive and apply the unearned premiums as a credit on the Secured Obligations and, in connection therewith, Mortgagor hereby appoints Mortgagee (or any officer of Mortgagee), as the true and lawful agent and attorney-in-fact for Mortgagor (with full powers of substitution), which power of attorney shall be deemed to be a power coupled with an interest and therefore irrevocable, to collect such premiums.
7.11 Prima Facie Evidence. Mortgagor agrees that, in any assignments, deeds, bills of sale, notices of sale, or postings, given by Mortgagee, any and all statements of fact or other recitals therein made as to the identity of Mortgagee, or as to the occurrence or existence of any Event of Default, or as to the acceleration of the maturity of the Secured Obligations, or as to the request to sell, posting of notice of sale, notice of sale, time, place, terms and manner of sale and receipt, distribution and application of the money realized therefrom, and without being limited by the foregoing, as to any other act or thing having been duly done by Mortgagee, shall be taken by all courts of law and equity as prima facie evidence that such statements or recitals state facts and are without further question to be so accepted, and Mortgagor does hereby ratify and confirm any and all acts that Mortgagee may lawfully do by virtue hereof.
7.12 Rights to Funds Held Pursuant to the Reserve Agreements. Mortgagee may, in accordance with the Reserve Agreements, apply all or any portion of the funds by Mortgagee or its Servicer pursuant to the Reserve Agreements, or any other reserve or escrow account, to any and all of the Secured Obligations in such order of priority as Mortgagee shall elect in its sole and absolute discretion.
7.13 Remedies Under Other Loan Documents. Mortgagee may exercise any right or remedy provided for in any of the other Loan Documents, including, without limitation, the Additional Loan Documents.
ARTICLE 8
ASSIGNMENT OF LEASES AND RENTS
8.1 Assignment of Leases and Rents. Mortgagor hereby unconditionally and absolutely grants, transfers and assigns unto Mortgagee all Rents now or hereafter due or payable for the occupancy or use of the Property, and all Leases, whether written or oral, with all security therefor, including all guaranties thereof, now or hereafter affecting the Property; reserving unto Mortgagor, however, a license to collect and retain such Rents and all security for the Leases prior to the occurrence of any Event of Default. Such license shall be revocable by Mortgagee without notice to Mortgagor at any time that an Event of Default exists. Mortgagor represents that the Rents and the Leases have not been heretofore sold, assigned, transferred or set over by any instrument now in force and will not at any time during the life of this assignment be sold, assigned, transferred or set over by Mortgagor or by any person or persons whomsoever; and Mortgagor has good right to sell, assign, transfer and set over the same and to grant to and confer upon Mortgagee the rights, interest, powers and authorities herein granted and conferred. Failure of Mortgagee at any time or from time to time to enforce the assignment of Rents and Leases under this Section shall not in any manner prevent its subsequent enforcement, and Mortgagee is not obligated to collect anything hereunder, but is accountable only for sums actually collected.
8.2 Further Assignments. Mortgagor shall give Mortgagee at any time upon demand any further or additional forms of assignment or transfer of such Rents, Leases and security as may be reasonably requested by Mortgagee, and shall deliver to Mortgagee executed copies of all such Leases and security.
8.3 Application of Rents. Mortgagee shall be entitled to deduct and retain a just and reasonable compensation from monies received hereunder for its services or that of its agents in collecting such monies. Any monies received by Mortgagee hereunder may be applied when received from time to time in payment of any taxes, assessments or other liens affecting the Property regardless of the delinquency, such application to be in such order as Mortgagee may determine.
The acceptance of this Mortgage by Mortgagee or the exercise of any rights by it hereunder shall not be, or be construed to be, an affirmation by it of any Lease nor an assumption of any liability under any Lease.
8.4 Collection of Rents. Upon or at any time that an Event of Default exists, Mortgagee may declare all sums secured hereby immediately due and payable, and may, at its option, without notice, and whether or not the Secured Obligations shall have been declared due and payable, either in person or by agent, with or without bringing any action or proceeding, or by a receiver to be appointed by a court, (a) enter upon, take possession of, manage and operate the Property, or any part thereof (including without limitation making necessary repairs, alterations and improvements to the Property); (b) make, cancel, enforce or modify Leases (and any guaranties thereof); (c) obtain and evict tenants; (d) fix or modify Rents; (e) do any acts which Mortgagee deems reasonably proper to protect the security thereof and (f) either with or without taking possession of the Property, in its own name sue for or otherwise collect and receive such Rents, including those past due and unpaid. In connection with the foregoing, Mortgagee shall be entitled and empowered to employ attorneys, and management, rental and other agents in and about the Property and to effect the matters which Mortgagee is empowered to do, and in the event Mortgagee shall itself effect such matters, Mortgagee shall be entitled to charge and receive reasonable management, rental and other fees therefor as may be customary in the area in which the Property is located; and the reasonable fees, charges, costs and expenses of Mortgagee or such persons shall be additional Secured Obligations. Mortgagee may apply all funds collected as aforesaid, less costs and expenses of operation and collection, including reasonable attorneys and agents fees, charges, costs and expenses, as aforesaid, upon any Secured Obligations, and in such order as Mortgagee may determine. The entering upon and taking possession of the Property, the collection of such Rents and the application thereof as aforesaid shall not cure or waive any default or waive, modify or affect notice of default under the Note or this Mortgage or invalidate any act done pursuant to such notice.
8.5 Authority of Mortgagee. Any tenants or occupants of any part of the Property are hereby authorized to recognize the claims of Mortgagee hereunder without investigating the reason for any action taken by Mortgagee, or the validity or the amount of Secured Obligations owing to Mortgagee, or the existence of any default in the Note or this Mortgage, or under or by reason of this assignment of Rents and Leases, or the application to be made by Mortgagee of any amounts to be paid to Mortgagee. The sole signature of Mortgagee shall be sufficient for the exercise of any rights under this assignment and the sole receipt of Mortgagee for any sums received shall be a full discharge and release therefor to any such tenant or occupant of the Property. Checks for all or any part of the rentals collected under this assignment of Rents and Leases shall be drawn to the exclusive order of Mortgagee.
8.6 Indemnification of Mortgagee. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to obligate Mortgagee to perform or discharge any obligation, duty or liability of any lessor under any Lease of the Property, and Mortgagor shall and does hereby indemnify and hold Mortgagee harmless from any and all liability, loss or damage which Mortgagee may or might incur under any Lease or by reason of the assignment; and any and all such liability, loss or damage incurred by Mortgagee, together with the costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys fees, incurred by Mortgagee in defense of any claims or demands therefor (whether successful or not), shall be additional Secured Obligations, and Mortgagor shall reimburse Mortgagee therefor on demand.
ARTICLE 9
MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS
9.1 Time of the Essence. Time is of the essence with respect to all provisions of the Loan Documents.
9.2 Joint and Several Obligations. If Mortgagor is more than one person or entity, then: (a) all Persons comprising Mortgagor are jointly and severally liable for all of the Secured Obligations; (b) all representations, warranties, and covenants made by Mortgagor shall be deemed representations, warranties, and covenants of each of the Persons comprising Mortgagor; (c) any breach, Default or Event of Default by any of the Persons comprising Mortgagor hereunder shall be deemed to be a breach, Default, or Event of Default of Mortgagor; (d) any reference herein contained to the knowledge or awareness of Mortgagor shall mean the actual or constructive knowledge or awareness of the Guarantors; and (e) any event creating personal liability of any of the Persons comprising Mortgagor shall create personal liability for all such Persons.
9.3 Waiver of Homestead and Other Exemptions. To the extent permitted by law, Mortgagor hereby waives all rights to any homestead or other exemption to which Mortgagor would otherwise be entitled under any present or future constitutional, statutory, or other provision of applicable state or federal law. Mortgagor hereby waives any right it may have to require Mortgagee to marshal all or any portion of the security for the Secured Obligations. Notwithstanding the existence of interests in the Property, Chattels or Intangible Personalty other than that created by this Mortgage, and notwithstanding any other provision of this Mortgage, upon an Event of Default, to the extent permitted by applicable law, Mortgagee shall have the right, in Mortgagees sole discretion, to determine the order in which the Property, Chattels or Intangible Personalty shall be subjected to the remedies provided in this Mortgage and to determine the order in which all or any part of the Indebtedness secured by this Mortgage is satisfied from the proceeds realized upon the exercise of the remedies provided in this Mortgage.
9.4 Non Recourse; Exceptions to Non-Recourse. Except as expressly set forth in Section 18 of the Note and Section 9.21 of this Mortgage, the recourse of Mortgagee with respect to the obligations evidenced by the Note, this Mortgage and the other Loan Documents (except for the Guaranty and the Environmental Indemnity Agreement) shall be solely to the Property, Chattels and Intangible Personalty, and any other collateral given as security for the Note.
9.5 Rights and Remedies Cumulative. Mortgagees rights and remedies under each of the Loan Documents are cumulative of the rights and remedies available to Mortgagee under each of the other Loan Documents and those otherwise available to Mortgagee at law or in equity. No act of Mortgagee shall be construed as an election to proceed under any particular provision of any Loan Document to the exclusion of any other provision in the same or any other Loan Document, or as an election of remedies to the exclusion of any other remedy which may then or thereafter be available to Mortgagee.
9.6 No Implied Waivers. Mortgagee shall not be deemed to have waived any provision of any Loan Document unless such waiver is in writing and is signed by Mortgagee. Without limiting the generality of the preceding sentence, neither Mortgagees acceptance of any payment with knowledge of a Default by Mortgagor, nor any failure by Mortgagee to exercise any remedy following a Default by Mortgagor shall be deemed a waiver of such Default, and no waiver by Mortgagee of any particular Default on the part of Mortgagor shall be deemed a waiver of any other Default or of any similar Default in the future.
9.7 No Third Party Rights. No person shall be a third party beneficiary of any provision of any of the Loan Documents. All provisions of the Loan Documents favoring Mortgagee are intended solely for the benefit of Mortgagee, and no third party shall be entitled to assume or expect that Mortgagee will not waive or consent to modification of any such provision in Mortgagees sole discretion.
9.8 Preservation of Liability and Priority. Without affecting the liability of Mortgagor or of any other person (except a person expressly released in writing) for payment and performance of all of the Secured Obligations, and without affecting the rights of Mortgagee with respect to any security not expressly released in writing, and without impairing in any way the priority of this Mortgage over the interests of any person acquired or first evidenced by recording subsequent to the recording hereof, Mortgagee may, either before or after the maturity of the Note, and without notice or consent: (a) release any person liable for payment or performance of all or any part of the Secured Obligations; (b) make any agreement altering the terms of payment or performance of all or any of the Secured Obligations; (c) exercise or refrain from exercising, or waive, any right or remedy which Mortgagee may have under any of the Loan Documents; (d) accept additional security of any kind for any of the Secured Obligations; or (e) release or otherwise deal with any real or personal property securing the Secured Obligations. Any person acquiring or recording evidence of any interest of any nature in the Property, the Chattels, or the Intangible Personalty shall be deemed, by acquiring such interest or recording any evidence thereof, to have agreed and consented to any or all such actions by Mortgagee.
9.9 Subrogation of Mortgagee. Mortgagee shall be subrogated to the lien of any previous encumbrance discharged with funds advanced by Mortgagee under the Loan Documents, regardless of whether such previous encumbrance has been released of record.
9.10 Notices. Any notice, consent or approval required or permitted to be given by Mortgagor or Mortgagee under this Mortgage shall be in writing and will be deemed given (a) upon personal delivery, (b) on the first Business Day after receipted delivery to a courier service which guarantees next-business-day delivery, or (c) on the third Business Day after mailing, by registered or certified United States mail, postage prepaid, in any case to the appropriate party at its address set forth below:

Either party may change such partys address for notices or copies of notices by giving notice to the other party in accordance with this Section.
9.11 Defeasance. Upon payment and performance in full of all of the Secured Obligations, Mortgagee will, at the sole cost and expense of Mortgagor, execute and deliver to Mortgagor such documents as may be required to release this Mortgage of record or in accordance with Section 10.8 hereof, to assign this Mortgage as directed by Mortgagor.
9.12 Illegality. If any provision of this Mortgage is held to be illegal, invalid, or unenforceable under present or future laws effective during the term of this Mortgage, the legality, validity, and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Mortgage shall not be affected thereby, and in lieu of each such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision there shall be added automatically as a part of this Mortgage a provision as similar in terms to such illegal, invalid, or unenforceable provision as may be possible and be legal, valid, and enforceable. If the rights and liens created by this Mortgage shall be invalid or unenforceable as to any part of the Secured Obligations, then the unsecured portion of the Secured Obligations shall be completely paid prior to the payment of the remaining and secured portion of the Secured Obligations, and all payments made on the Secured Obligations shall be considered to have been paid on and applied first to the complete payment of the unsecured portion of the Secured Obligations.
9.13 Usury Savings Clause. It is expressly stipulated and agreed to be the intent of Mortgagee and Mortgagor at all times to comply with the applicable law governing the highest lawful interest rate. If the applicable law is ever judicially interpreted so as to render usurious any amount called for under the Note or under any of the other Loan Documents, or contracted for, charged, taken, reserved or received with respect to the loan evidenced thereby, or if acceleration of the maturity of the Note, any prepayment by Mortgagor, or any other circumstance whatsoever, results in Mortgagor having paid any interest in excess of that permitted by applicable law, then it is the express intent of Mortgagor and Mortgagee that all excess amounts theretofore collected by Mortgagee be credited on the principal balance of the Note (or, at Mortgagees option, paid over to Mortgagor), and the provisions of the Note and other Loan Documents immediately be deemed reformed and the amounts thereafter collectible hereunder and thereunder reduced, without the necessity of the execution of any new document, so as to comply with the applicable law, but so as to permit the recovery of the fullest amount otherwise called for hereunder and thereunder. The right to accelerate maturity of the Note does not include the right to accelerate any interest which has not otherwise accrued on the date of such acceleration, and Mortgagee does not intend to collect any unearned interest in the event of acceleration. All sums paid or agreed to be paid to Mortgagee for the use, forbearance or detention of the Secured Obligations evidenced hereby or by the Note shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread throughout the full term of such Secured Obligations until payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of such Secured Obligations does not exceed the maximum rate or amount of interest permitted under applicable law. The term applicable law as used herein shall mean any federal or state law applicable to the loan made by Mortgagee to Mortgagor evidenced by the Note.
9.14 Obligations Binding Upon Mortgagors Successors. This Mortgage is binding upon Mortgagor and Mortgagors successors and assigns, and shall inure to the benefit of Mortgagee, and its successors and assigns, and the provisions hereof shall likewise be covenants running with the land. The duties, covenants, conditions, obligations, and warranties of Mortgagor in this Mortgage shall be joint and several obligations of Mortgagor and Mortgagors successors and assigns.
9.15 Construction. All pronouns and any variations of pronouns herein shall be deemed to refer to the masculine, feminine, or neuter, singular or plural, as the identity of the parties may require. Whenever the terms herein are singular, the same shall be deemed to mean the plural, as the identity of the parties or the context requires. The term including shall mean including, without limitation. Each party hereto acknowledges that each party hereto and its respective counsel reviewed and revised this Mortgage and the other Loan Documents, and each party hereto agrees that any rule of construction to the effect that ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting party shall not apply in the interpretation of this Mortgage and the other Loan Documents.
9.16 Attorneys Fees. Any reference in this Mortgage to attorneys or counsel fees paid or incurred by Mortgagee shall be deemed to include paralegals fees and legal assistants fees. Moreover, wherever provision is made herein for payment of attorneys or counsels fees or expenses incurred by Mortgagee, such provision shall include but not be limited to, such fees or expenses incurred in any and all judicial, bankruptcy, reorganization, administrative, or other proceedings, including appellate proceedings, whether such fees or expenses arise before proceedings are commenced, during such proceedings or after entry of a final judgment.
9.17 Waiver and Agreement Regarding Prepayment.
(a) EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE EXPRESSLY PERMITTED HEREUNDER OR UNDER THE NOTE, MORTGAGOR HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE UNDER APPLICABLE LAW TO PREPAY THE NOTE, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, WITHOUT PREPAYMENT CHARGE, UPON ACCELERATION OF THE MATURITY DATE OF THE NOTE, AND AGREES THAT, EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE EXPRESSLY PERMITTED HEREUNDER OR UNDER THE NOTE, IF FOR ANY REASON A PREPAYMENT OF ALL OR ANY PART OF THE NOTE IS MADE, WHETHER VOLUNTARILY OR FOLLOWING ANY ACCELERATION OF THE MATURITY DATE OF THE NOTE BY MORTGAGEE ON ACCOUNT OF THE OCCURRENCE OF ANY EVENT OF DEFAULT ARISING FOR ANY REASON, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, AS A RESULT OF ANY PROHIBITED OR RESTRICTED TRANSFER, FURTHER ENCUMBRANCE OR DISPOSITION OF THE PROPERTY OR ANY PART THEREOF SECURING THE NOTE, THEN MORTGAGOR SHALL BE OBLIGATED TO PAY, CONCURRENTLY WITH SUCH PREPAYMENT, THE PREPAYMENT PREMIUM PROVIDED FOR IN THE NOTE (OR, IN THE EVENT OF ACCELERATION WHEN THE NOTE IS CLOSED TO PREPAYMENT, AS PROVIDED IN THE DEFINITION OF SECURED OBLIGATIONS SET FORTH IN ARTICLE 1 HEREOF). MORTGAGOR HEREBY DECLARES THAT MORTGAGEES AGREEMENT TO MAKE THE LOAN EVIDENCED BY THE NOTE AT THE INTEREST RATE AND FOR THE TERM SET FORTH IN THE NOTE CONSTITUTES ADEQUATE CONSIDERATION, GIVEN INDIVIDUAL WEIGHT BY MORTGAGOR, FOR THIS WAIVER AND AGREEMENT.
(b) If the maturity of the Note secured by this Mortgage is accelerated, Mortgagor shall pay a prepayment premium in an amount equal to any prepayment premium which would be payable under the terms of the Note as if the Note were prepaid in full on the date of the acceleration. If under the terms of the Note no voluntary prepayment would be permissible on the date of such acceleration, then the prepayment fee or premium shall be equal to one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the highest prepayment fee or premium set forth in the Note, calculated as of the date of such acceleration as if prepayment were permitted on such date.
9.18 Waiver of Jury Trial. MORTGAGEE AND MORTGAGOR KNOWINGLY, IRREVOCABLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT EITHER MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM BASED ON THIS MORTGAGE, OR ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS MORTGAGE OR ANY LOAN DOCUMENT, OR ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT, COURSE OF DEALING, STATEMENT (WHETHER VERBAL OR WRITTEN) OR ACTIONS OF ANY PARTY HERETO OR TO ANY LOAN DOCUMENT. THIS PROVISION IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR MORTGAGEE AND MORTGAGOR TO ENTER INTO THE LOAN TRANSACTION EVIDENCED BY THE NOTE.
9.19 Governing Laws; Forum.
(a) The substantive laws of the State of Connecticut shall govern the validity, construction, enforcement and interpretation of this Mortgage.
(b) Any legal suit, action or proceeding against Mortgagee or Mortgagor arising out of or relating to this Mortgage may at Mortgagees option be instituted in any federal or state court serving the Town of Orange, the Town of Shelton or the Town of Milford or the County of Fairfield or the County of New Haven, State of Connecticut and Mortgagor waives any objections which it may now or hereafter have based on venue and/or forum non conveniens of any such suit, action or proceeding, and Mortgagor hereby irrevocably submits to the jurisdiction of any such court in any suit, action or proceeding.
9.20 Entire Agreement. This Mortgage, together with the other Loan Documents, contains the entire understanding between the parties to the matters addressed herein, and may not be changed, amended, modified or waived except pursuant to a written agreement executed by the parties, and supersedes any other understandings or agreements with respect to the matters covered hereby.
9.21 Limitation on Liability. The provisions of Section 18(a) and Section 18(b) of the Note are incorporated herein by reference.
9.22 Claims Against Mortgagee. Mortgagee shall not be in default under this Mortgage, or under any of the other Loan Documents, unless a written notice specifically setting forth the claim of Mortgagor shall have been given to Mortgagee within three (3) months after Mortgagor first had knowledge of the occurrence of the event that Mortgagor alleges gave rise to such claim and Mortgagee does not remedy or cure the default, if any there be, promptly thereafter. Mortgagor waives any claim, set-off or defense against Mortgagee arising by reason of any alleged default by Mortgagee as to which Mortgagor does not give such notice timely as aforesaid. Mortgagor acknowledges that such waiver is or may be essential to Mortgagees ability to enforce Mortgagees remedies without delay and that such waiver therefore constitutes a substantial part of the bargain between Mortgagee and Mortgagor with respect to the Loan.
9.23 Acceptance of Cures for Events of Default. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Mortgage or the other Loan Documents, Mortgagee shall in no event or under any circumstance be obligated or required to accept a cure by Mortgagor or by any other person of an Event of Default unless Mortgagee agrees to do so in the exercise of its sole and absolute discretion, it being agreed that once an Event of Default has occurred, Mortgagee shall be absolutely and unconditionally entitled to pursue all rights and remedies available to it under the Loan Documents or otherwise at law or in equity.
ARTICLE 10
CONNECTICUT PROVISIONS
10.1 Principles of Construction. In the event of any inconsistencies between the terms and conditions of this Article 10 and the terms and conditions of this Mortgage, the terms and conditions of this Article 10 shall control and be binding.
10.2 Open-End Mortgage. This is an OPEN-END MORTGAGE made pursuant to and subject to all of the terms and provisions of Section 49-2(c) of the Connecticut General Statutes and the holder hereof shall have all of the rights, powers and protection to which the holder of an OPEN-END MORTGAGE DEED is entitled under Connecticut law. Upon request the Mortgagee may, in its discretion, make future advances to Mortgagor pursuant to the Note, notwithstanding any repayments or prepayments of the outstanding principal balance of the Note. Any such future advance and the interest payable thereon shall be secured by this Mortgage, equally with, and with the same priority over other claims as the original debt secured hereby when evidenced by promissory notes stating that the notes are secured hereby. At no time shall the principal amount of the debt secured by this Mortgage exceed the original loan authorized, nor shall the maturity of any future advance secured hereby extend beyond the maturity of the original mortgage debt as stated in the Note.
10.3 Release. Upon the payment and/or defeasance in full of all principal, interest and other sums due under the Note, this Mortgage and the other Loan Documents in accordance with the terms and conditions of such instruments, Mortgagee shall deliver to Mortgagor, at Mortgagors expense, a release of the lien of this Mortgage, in recordable form.
10.4 COMMERCIAL TRANSACTION. MORTGAGOR ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THE TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREIN IS A COMMERCIAL TRANSACTION WITHIN THE MEANING OF SECTION 52-278A OF THE CONNECTICUT GENERAL STATUTES, AND THAT IN ANY ACTION UPON THIS TRANSACTION, THE LENDER MAY AVAIL ITSELF OF AND PURSUE ITS RIGHTS TO OBTAIN A PREJUDGMENT REMEDY IN ACCORDANCE WITH SECTION 52-278F OF THE CONNECTICUT GENERAL STATUTES. MORTGAGOR HAS BEEN ADVISED BY COUNSEL OF ITS RIGHTS WITH RESPECT TO PREJUDGMENT REMEDIES UNDER CHAPTER 903A OF THE CONNECTICUT GENERAL STATUTES, AS AMENDED, INCLUDING SECTIONS 52-278A ET SEQ. MORTGAGOR HEREBY KNOWINGLY AND WILLINGLY WAIVES TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW ALL RIGHTS OF NOTICE, JUDICIAL HEARING OR PRIOR COURT ORDER IN CONNECTION WITH THE OBTAINING BY MORTGAGEE OF ANY PREJUDGMENT REMEDY WITH RESPECT TO THIS MORTGAGE, OR PURSUANT TO ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS EXECUTED BY MORTGAGOR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS TRANSACTION, INCLUDING ANY AMENDMENTS OR EXTENSIONS HEREOF OR THEREOF. FURTHER, MORTGAGOR WAIVES ANY REQUIREMENT OF LENDER TO POST A BOND OR ANY OTHER SECURITY, OR TO SHOW SOME EXIGENCY, IN CONNECTION WITH THE OBTAINING BY MORTGAGEE OF ANY SUCH PREJUDGMENT REMEDY.
10.5 MORTGAGOR ACKNOWLEDGES, REPRESENTS AND WARRANTS THAT THE LOAN EVIDENCED BY THE NOTE IS FOR COMMERCIAL PURPOSES. MORTGAGOR FURTHER ACKNOWLEDGES, REPRESENTS AND WARRANTS THAT MORTGAGOR IS ENGAGED EXCLUSIVELY IN COMMERCIAL PURSUITS AND THAT THE PROCEEDS OF THE NOTE ARE TO BE UTILIZED IN THE BUSINESS ACTIVITIES OF MORTGAGOR AND WILL NOT BE UTILIZED FOR CONSUMER PURPOSES.

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, and at all times hereafter specified, WU/LH 35 EXECUTIVE L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company ( Maker ), having an address at c/o Lighthouse Real Estate Management LLC, 60 Hempstead Avenue, Suite 718, West Hempstead, New York 11552, promises to pay to the order of FIRST SUNAMERICA LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY , a New York corporation, having an address at 1 SunAmerica Center, Century City, Los Angeles, California 90067-6022 (hereinafter referred to, together with each subsequent holder hereof, as Holder ), or at such other address as may be designated from time to time hereafter by any Holder, the principal sum of FIVE MILLION SEVEN HUNDRED TWENTY-FOUR THOUSAND SIX HUNDRED AND NO/100THS DOLLARS ($5,724,600), together with interest on the principal balance outstanding from time to time, as hereinafter provided, in lawful money of the United States of America.
By its execution and delivery of this promissory note (this Note ), Maker covenants and agrees as follows:
1. Interest Rate and Payments .
(a) The balance of principal outstanding from time to time under this Note shall bear interest at the rate of five and seventy-six hundredths percent (5.76%) per annum (the Original Interest Rate ), computed on the basis of a three hundred sixty (360) day year composed of twelve (12) months of thirty (30) days each; however, interest for partial months shall be calculated by multiplying the principal balance of this Note by the applicable interest rate (i.e., the Original Interest Rate or the New Rate (hereinafter defined)), dividing the product by three hundred sixty (360), and multiplying that result by the actual number of days elapsed.
(b) Interest only on this Note shall be payable on the date the loan evidenced by this Note (the Loan ) is funded by Holder, in advance, for the period from and including the date hereof through and including March 31, 2011.
(c) Commencing on May 1, 2011 and on the first day of each month thereafter through and including April 1, 2012, (each such date a Interest Only Payment Date ) payments of interest only shall be payable, in arrears, in the amount of $27,478.08.
(d) Commencing on May 1, 2012 and on the first day of each month thereafter through and including the first day of the month immediately preceding the Maturity Date (each such date a Principal and Interest Payment Date and together with any Interest Only Payment Date, referred to herein, collectively, as a Payment Date ), combined payments of principal and interest shall be payable, in arrears, in the amount of $36,048.43 each (such amount representing an amount that would be sufficient to fully amortize the original principal amount of this Note over a twenty-five (25) year period (the Amortization Period ), if such amortization were based on a three hundred sixty (360) day year composed of twelve (12) months of thirty (30) days each).
(e) The entire outstanding principal balance, and all other amounts due under this Note and the other Loan Documents (as hereinafter defined), together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, shall be due and payable in full on April 1, 2018 (the Maturity Date ).
2. Holders Extension Option; Net Operating Income . The provisions of this Section 2 concern the election of Holder to extend the term of the Loan for the Extension Term (as defined below) and certain obligations of Maker during the Extension Term.
(a) If Maker shall fail to pay the outstanding principal balance of this Note and all accrued interest and other charges due hereon and all other amounts due under the Loan Documents, at the Maturity Date, Holder shall have the right, at Holders sole option and discretion, to extend the term of the Loan for an additional period of five (5) years (the Extension Term ) and require Maker to make additional monthly payments of net operating income as provided herein. If Holder elects to extend the term of the Loan, Maker shall pay all fees of Holder incurred in connection with such extension, including, but not limited to, attorneys fees and title insurance premiums. Maker shall execute all documents reasonably requested by Holder to evidence and secure the Loan, as extended, and shall obtain and provide to Holder any title insurance policy or endorsement requested by Holder. If Holder elects to extend the term of the loan for the Extension Term, no Event of Default shall be deemed to exist solely by reason of the failure by Maker to pay such outstanding principal balance of this Note and all accrued interest and other charges due hereunder, and all other amounts due under the Loan Documents, on the Maturity Date.
(b) Should Holder elect to extend the term of the Loan as provided above, Holder shall: (i) reset the interest rate borne by the then-existing principal balance of the Loan to a rate per annum (the New Rate ) equal to the greater of (A) the Original Interest Rate, or (B) Holders (or comparable lenders, if Holder is no longer making such loans) then-prevailing interest rate for five (5) year loans secured by properties similar to the Property (hereinafter defined), as determined by Holder in its sole discretion; (ii) re-amortize the then-existing principal balance of the Loan over the Amortization Period; (iii) have the right to require Maker to enter into modifications of the non-economic terms of the Loan Documents as Holder may request (the Non-Economic Modifications ); and (iv) notwithstanding any provision set forth in the Loan Documents to the contrary, have the right to require Maker to make monthly payments into escrow for insurance premiums and real property taxes, assessments and similar governmental charges. Hence, monthly principal and interest payments during the Extension Term shall be based upon the New Rate, in an amount that would be sufficient to fully amortize the outstanding principal balance of the Loan over the Amortization Period.
(c) If Holder elects to extend the term of the Loan, Holder shall advise Maker of the New Rate on or prior to the Maturity Date, but in no event shall the term be extended unless Holder is entitled to do so under Section 2(a) above.
(d) In addition to the required monthly payments of principal and interest set forth above, commencing on the first day of the second month following the Maturity Date and continuing on the first day of each month thereafter during the Extension Term (each an Additional Payment Date ), Maker shall make monthly payments to Holder in an amount equal to all Net Operating Income (hereinafter defined) attributable to the Property for the calendar month ending on the last day of the month that is two months preceding each such Additional Payment Date.
For example, assuming the Maturity Date is January 1, then Net Operating Income for the period from January 1 through January 31 shall be payable to Holder on March 1; Net Operating Income for the period from February 1 through February 28 shall be payable to Holder on April 1, and so on.
(e) Holder shall deposit all such Net Operating Income received from Maker into an account or accounts maintained at a financial institution chosen by Holder or its Servicer in its sole discretion (the Deposit Account ) and all such funds shall be invested in a manner acceptable to Holder in its sole discretion. All interest, dividends and earnings credited to the Deposit Account shall be held and applied in accordance with the terms hereof.
(f) On the third Additional Payment Date and on each third Additional Payment Date thereafter, Holder shall apply all Excess Funds (hereinafter defined), if any, to prepayment of amounts due under this Note, without premium or penalty.
(g) As security for the repayment of the Loan and the performance of all other obligations of Maker under the Loan Documents, Maker hereby assigns, pledges, conveys, delivers, transfers and grants to Holder a first priority security interest in and to: (i) all Makers right, title and interest in and to the Deposit Account; (ii) all rights to payment from the Deposit Account and the money deposited therein or credited thereto (whether then due or in the future due and whether then or in the future on deposit); (iii) all interest thereon; (iv) any certificates, instruments and securities, if any, representing the Deposit Account; (v) all claims, demands, general intangibles, choses in action and other rights or interests of Maker in respect of the Deposit Account; (vi) any monies then or at any time thereafter deposited therein; and (vii) any increases, renewals, extensions, substitutions and replacements thereof and all proceeds of the foregoing.
(h) From time to time, but not more frequently than monthly, Maker may request a disbursement (a Disbursement ) from the Deposit Account for capital expenses, tenant improvement expenses, leasing commissions and special contingency expenses. Holder may consent to or deny any such Disbursement in its sole discretion.
(i) During the existence of an Event of Default (hereinafter defined), (i) Maker shall not be entitled to any Disbursement from the Deposit Account and (ii) Holder shall be entitled to take immediate possession and control of the Deposit Account (and all funds contained therein) and to pursue all of its rights and remedies available to Holder under the Loan Documents, at law and in equity.
(j) All of the terms and conditions of the Loan shall apply during the Extension Term, except as expressly set forth above, and except that no further extensions of the Loan shall be permitted.
(k) For the purposes of the foregoing:
(i) Excess Funds shall mean, on any Additional Payment Date, the amount of funds then existing in the Deposit Account (including any Net Operating Income due on the applicable Additional Payment Date), less an amount equal to the sum of three regularly scheduled payments of principal and interest due on this Note;
(ii) Net Operating Income shall mean, for any particular period of time, Gross Revenue for the relevant period, less Operating Expenses for the relevant period; provided, however, that if such amount is equal to or less than zero (0), Net Operating Income shall equal zero (0);
(iii) Gross Revenue shall mean all payments and other revenues (exclusive, however, of any payments attributable to sales taxes) received by or on behalf of Maker from all sources related to the ownership or operation of the Property, including, but not limited to, rents, room charges, parking fees, interest, security deposits (unless required to be held in a segregated account), business interruption insurance proceeds, operating expense pass-through revenues, direct expense reimbursements and common area maintenance charges, for the relevant period for which the calculation of Gross Revenue is being made; and
(iv) Operating Expenses shall mean the sum of all ordinary and necessary operating expenses actually paid by Maker in connection with the operation of the Property during the relevant period for which the calculation of Operating Expenses is being made, including, but not limited to, (a) payments made by Maker for taxes and insurance required under the Loan Documents and (b) monthly debt service payments as required under this Note.
3. Budgets During Extension Term .
(a) Within fifteen (15) Business Days (as defined below) following the Maturity Date and on or before December 1 of each subsequent calendar year, Maker shall deliver to Holder a proposed revenue and expense budget for the Property for the remainder of the calendar year in which the Maturity Date occurs or the immediately succeeding calendar year (as applicable). Such budget shall set forth Makers projection of Gross Revenue and Operating Expenses for the applicable calendar year, which shall be subject to Holders reasonable approval. Once a proposed budget has been reviewed and approved by Holder, and Maker has made all revisions requested by Holder, if any, the revised budget shall be delivered to Holder and shall thereafter become the budget for the Property hereunder (any such budget referred to as the Budget ) for the applicable calendar year. If Maker and Holder are unable to agree upon a Budget for any calendar year, the budgeted Operating Expenses (excluding extraordinary items) provided in the Budget for the Property for the preceding calendar year shall be considered the Budget for the Property for the subject calendar year until Maker and Holder agree upon a new Budget for such calendar year.
(b) During the Extension Term, Maker shall operate the Property in accordance with the applicable Budget for the applicable calendar year, and the total of expenditures relating to the Property exceeding one hundred and five percent (105%) of the aggregate of such expenses set forth in the applicable Budget for the applicable time period shall not be treated as Operating Expenses for the purposes of calculating Net Operating Income, without the prior written consent of Holder except for emergency expenditures which, in Makers good faith judgment, are reasonably necessary to protect, or avoid immediate danger to, life or property.
4. Reports During Extension Term .
(a) During the Extension Term, Maker shall deliver to Holder all financial statements reasonably required by Holder to calculate Net Operating Income, including, without limitation, a monthly statement to be delivered to Holder concurrently with Makers payment of Net Operating Income that sets forth the amount of Net Operating Income accompanying such statement and Makers calculation of Net Operating Income for the relevant calendar month. Such statements shall be certified by an executive officer of Maker or Makers manager, managing member or general partner (as applicable) as having been prepared in accordance with the terms hereof and to be true, accurate and complete in all material respects.
(b) In addition, on or before February 1 of each calendar year during the Extension Term, Maker shall submit to Holder an annual income and expense statement for the Property which shall include the calculation of Gross Revenue, Operating Expenses and Net Operating Income for the preceding calendar year and shall be accompanied by Makers reconciliation of any difference between the actual aggregate amount of the Net Operating Income for such calendar year and the aggregate amount of Net Operating Income for such calendar year actually remitted to Holder. All such statements shall be certified by an executive officer of Maker or Makers manager, managing member or general partner (as applicable) as having been prepared in accordance with the terms hereof and to be true, accurate and complete in all material respects. If any such annual financial statement discloses any inconsistency between the calculation of Net Operating Income and the amount of Net Operating Income actually remitted to Holder, Maker shall immediately remit to Holder the amount of any underpayment of Net Operating Income for such calendar year or, in the event of an overpayment by Maker, such amount may be withheld from any subsequent payment of Net Operating Income required hereunder.
(c) Holder may notify Maker within ninety (90) days after receipt of any statement or report required hereunder that Holder disputes any computation or item contained in any portion of such statement or report. If Holder so notifies Maker, Holder and Maker shall meet in good faith within twenty (20) days after Holders notice to Maker to resolve such disputed items. If, despite such good faith efforts, the parties are unable to resolve the dispute at such meeting or within ten (10) days thereafter, the items shall be resolved by an independent certified public accountant designated by Holder within fifteen (15) days after such ten (10) day period. The determination of such accountant shall be final. All fees of such accountant shall be paid by Maker. Maker shall remit to Holder any additional amount of Net Operating Income found to be due for such periods within ten (10) days after the resolution of such dispute by the parties or the accountants determination, as applicable. The amount of any overpayment found to have been made for such periods may be withheld from any required future remittance of Net Operating Income.
(d) Maker shall at all times keep and maintain full and accurate books of account and records adequate to reflect correctly all items required in order to calculate Net Operating Income.
5. Prepayment
(a) Maker shall have no right to prepay all or any part of this Note prior to the date that is the last day of the forty-second (42) month following the date of this Note (the Lockout Expiration Date ).
(b) At any time following the Lockout Expiration Date, Maker shall have the right to prepay the full principal amount of this Note, and all other amounts due under this Note and the other Loan Documents, and all accrued but unpaid interest thereon as of the date of prepayment, provided that (i) Maker gives not less than thirty (30) days prior written notice to Holder of Makers election to prepay this Note, (ii) Maker pays a prepayment premium to Holder equal to the greater of (A) one percent (1%) of the outstanding principal amount of this Note or (B) the Present Value of this Note (hereinafter defined), less the amount of principal being prepaid, calculated as of the prepayment date and (iii) Maker prepays each of the other Additional Notes (as such term is defined in the Mortgage) and all other amounts due under the Additional Notes and the other Additional Loan Documents (as such term is defined in the Mortgage), and all accrued but unpaid interest thereon as of the date of prepayment.
(c) Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 5 , no prepayment premium shall be due (i) in connection with any involuntary prepayment due to the Holders application of any insurance proceeds or condemnation awards to the principal balance of the Loan or (ii) if Maker provides additional funds to prepay the Loan in connection with the application of any insurance proceeds or condemnation awards to the principal balance of the Loan following any casualty or condemnation; provided, in any such case, that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such application of insurance proceeds or condemnation awards.
(d) Holder shall notify Maker in writing of the amount and basis of determination of the prepayment premium. Holder shall not be obligated to accept any prepayment of the principal balance of this Note unless such prepayment is accompanied by (i) the applicable prepayment premium, (ii) the outstanding principal balance of the Loan, (iii) all accrued interest and other sums due under this Note and all other amounts due under the Loan Documents and (iv) the outstanding principal balance of the Additional Loans (as such term is defined in the Mortgage) all accrued interest and other sums due under the Additional Notes and all other amounts due under the Additional Loan Documents. Maker may not prepay the Loan on a Friday, nor on any public holiday or the equivalent for banks generally under the laws of the State of New York or on any day preceding a public holiday, or the equivalent for banks generally under the laws of the State of New York.
(e) Except for making payments of Net Operating Income as required above, and except for the application of insurance proceeds or condemnation awards to the principal balance of this Note, as provided in the Mortgage (hereinafter defined), in no event shall Maker be permitted to make any partial prepayments of this Note.
(f) If Holder accelerates this Note for any reason, then in addition to Makers obligation to pay the then outstanding principal balance of this Note and all accrued but unpaid interest thereon, Maker shall pay an additional amount equal to the prepayment premium that would be due to Holder if Maker were voluntarily prepaying this Note at the time that such acceleration occurred, or if under the terms hereof no voluntary prepayment would be permissible on the date of such acceleration, Maker shall pay a prepayment premium equal to 150% of the highest prepayment premium set forth in this Note, calculated as of the date of such acceleration as if prepayment were permitted on such date.
(g) For the purposes of the foregoing:
(i) The Present Value of this Note with respect to any prepayment of this Note, as of any date, shall be determined by discounting all scheduled payments of principal and interest remaining to maturity of this Note, attributed to the amount being prepaid, at the Discount Rate. If prepayment occurs on a date other than a Payment Date, the actual number of days remaining from the prepayment date to the next Payment Date will be used to calculate such discount within such period;
(ii) The Discount Rate is the rate which, when compounded monthly, is equivalent to the Treasury Rate, when compounded semi-annually;
(iii) The Treasury Rate is the semi-annual yield on the Treasury Constant Maturity Series with maturity equal to the remaining weighted average life of this Note, for the week prior to the prepayment date, as reported in Federal Reserve Statistical Release H. 15 - Selected Interest Rates, conclusively determined by Holder on the prepayment date. The rate will be determined by linear interpolation between the yields reported in Release H.15, if necessary. In the event Release H.15 is no longer published, Holder shall select a comparable publication to determine the Treasury Rate.
(h) Holder shall not be obligated actually to reinvest the amount prepaid in any treasury obligations as a condition precedent to receiving any prepayment premium.
(i) Notwithstanding the foregoing, (A) at any time during the Extension Term, Maker shall have the right to prepay in full, but not in part, the principal amount of this Note and all accrued but unpaid interest thereon as of the date of prepayment, without prepayment premium thereon and (B) no prepayment premium shall be due in connection with the prepayment of the full principal amount of this Note, and all other amounts due under this Note and the other Loan Documents, and all accrued but unpaid interest thereon as of the date of prepayment, during the ninety (90) day period prior to the Maturity Date.
6. Payments . Whenever any payment to be made under this Note shall be stated to be due on a Saturday, Sunday or public holiday or the equivalent for banks generally under the laws of the State of New York (any other day being a Business Day ), such payment may be made on the next succeeding Business Day.
7. Default Rate .
(a) The entire balance of principal, interest, and any other sums due under this Note and the other Loan Documents upon the maturity hereof, by acceleration or otherwise, shall bear interest from the date due until paid at the greater of (i) eighteen percent (18%) per annum and (ii) a per annum rate equal to four percent (4%) over the prime rate published in The Wall Street Journal on the first business day of each month (the Default Rate ); provided, however, that such rate shall not exceed the maximum permitted by applicable state or federal law. In the event The Wall Street Journal is no longer published or no longer publishes such prime rate, Holder shall select a comparable reference.
(b) If any payment under this Note or any of the Additional Notes is not made when due, interest shall accrue at the Default Rate from the date such payment was due until payment is actually made.
8. Late Charges . In addition to interest as set forth herein, Maker shall pay to Holder a late charge equal to four percent (4%) of any amounts due under this Note in the event any such amount is not paid when due. Notwithstanding the foregoing provision, Holder will allow for one (1) five (5) day grace period upon monetary default without the obligation of paying a late charge in any twelve (12) month period during the term of the Loan.
9. Application of Payments . All payments hereunder shall be applied in the following order: (i) first, to the payment of late charges, if any; (ii) second, to the payment of prepayment premiums, if any; (iii) third, to the repayment of any sums advanced by Holder for the payment of any insurance premiums, taxes, assessments or other charges against the Property securing this Note and any other costs and expenses incurred by Holder in accordance with the Loan Documents (together with interest thereon at the Default Rate from the date of advance until repaid), if any; (iv) fourth, to the payment of accrued and unpaid interest and other amounts due and payable under the Loan Documents (other than principal), if any; and (v) fifth, to the reduction of principal. Notwithstanding the foregoing, for so long as any Event of Default is continuing, Holder shall have the continuing right to apply any payment received by Holder from or on behalf of Maker as Holder may elect against the due and owing obligations of Maker under the Note and the other Loan Documents in such order of priority or in such allocations as Holder may deem advisable in its sole and absolute discretion.
10. Immediately Available Funds . All payments under this Note shall be payable in immediately available funds without setoff, counterclaim or deduction of any kind, and shall be made by electronic funds transfer from a bank account established and maintained by Maker for such purpose.
11. Security . This Note is secured by, among other things, (i) that certain (a) Open-End Mortgage, Assignment of Leases and Rents, Security Agreement and Fixture Filing, of even date herewith, granted by Maker for the benefit of Holder (the Mortgage ) encumbering certain real property and improvements located at 35 Executive Boulevard, Orange, Connecticut 06477, as more particularly described in the Mortgage (the Property ), (ii) a Guaranty Agreement from Paul Cooper, Jeffrey Ravetz and Louis Sheinker (collectively, Guarantors ), in favor of Holder (the Guaranty ) and (iii) the Affiliate Guaranty (as such term is defined in the Mortgage).
12. Certain Definitions . Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings set forth in the Mortgage.
13. Event of Default . Each of the following events will constitute an event of default (an Event of Default ) under this Note and under the Mortgage and each other document evidencing or securing or executed in connection with the Loan (collectively, the Loan Documents ), and any Event of Default under any Loan Document shall constitute an Event of Default hereunder and under each of the other Loan Documents:
(a) any failure to pay when due any interest, principal or other amount in a sum certain under this Note or under any of the other Loan Documents for which sum there is a scheduled date for payment or for which there is a date certain for payment.
(b) any failure to pay within ten (10) days following demand by Holder for any amount other than any amount described in Section 13(a) above; or
(c) any failure of Maker to properly perform any obligation contained herein or in any of the other Loan Documents (other than the obligation to make payments under this Note or the other Loan Documents) and the continuance of such failure for a period of thirty (30) days following written notice thereof from Holder to Maker; provided, however, that if such failure is not curable within such thirty (30) day period, then, so long as Maker commences to cure such failure within such thirty (30) day period and is continually and diligently attempting to cure to completion, such failure shall not be an Event of Default unless such failure remains uncured for one hundred twenty (120) days after such written notice to Maker; or
(d) if, at any time during the Extension Term, Gross Revenue for any calendar month shall be less than ninety-three percent (93%) of the amount of projected Gross Revenue for such month set forth in the applicable Budget; or
(e) the occurrence of any event that is deemed to be an Event of Default under any provision of this Note, the Mortgage, the Affiliate Guaranty any other Loan Document or any Additional Loan Document.
14. Acceleration . If at any time an Event of Default exists, the entire balance of principal, accrued interest and other sums owing hereunder shall, at the option of Holder, become at once due and payable without notice or demand. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default described in Section 13(d) hereof, Holder shall have the option, in its sole and absolute discretion, to either (a) exercise any remedies available to Holder under the Loan Documents, at law or in equity, or (b) require Maker to submit a new proposed budget for Holders approval. If Holder agrees to accept such new proposed budget, then such budget shall become the Budget for all purposes hereunder. If an Event of Default exists, Holder may exercise any right, power or remedy permitted by law or set forth herein or in the Mortgage or any other Loan Document.
15. Conditions Precedent . Maker hereby certifies and declares that all acts, conditions and things required to be done or performed or have happened precedent to the creation and issuance of this Note, and in order to constitute this Note the legal, valid and binding obligation of Maker, enforceable in accordance with the terms hereof, have been done or performed or have happened in due and strict compliance with all applicable laws.
16. Certain Waivers and Consents . Maker and all parties now or hereafter liable for the payment hereof, primarily or secondarily, directly or indirectly, and whether as endorser, guarantor, surety, or otherwise, hereby severally (a) waive presentment, demand, protest, notice of protest and/or dishonor, and all other demands or notices of any sort whatever with respect to this Note, (b) consent to impairment or release of collateral, extensions of time for payment, and acceptance of partial payments before, at, or after maturity, (c) waive any right to require Holder to proceed against any security for this Note before proceeding hereunder, (d) waive diligence in the collection of this Note or in filing suit on this Note and (e) agree to pay all out-of-pocket costs and expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys fees, which may be actually incurred in the collection of this Note or any part thereof or in preserving, securing possession of and realizing upon any security for this Note.
17. Usury Savings Clause . The provisions of this Note and of all agreements between Maker and Holder are, whether now existing or hereinafter made, hereby expressly limited so that in no contingency or event whatsoever, whether by reason of acceleration of the maturity hereof, prepayment, demand for payment or otherwise, shall the amount paid, or agreed to be paid, to Holder for the use, forbearance or detention of the principal hereof or interest hereon, which remains unpaid from time to time, exceed the maximum amount permissible under applicable law. In particular, it is the intention of the parties hereto to conform strictly to Connecticut and Federal law, whichever is applicable. If as a result of any circumstance whatsoever, the performance or fulfillment of any provision hereof or of any other agreement between Maker and Holder pertaining to the subject matter hereof shall, at the time performance or fulfillment of such provision is due, involve or purport to require any payment in excess of the limits then prescribed by applicable law, then the obligation to be performed or fulfilled shall hereby be reduced to such limit as to be valid under such applicable law, and if as a result of any circumstance whatsoever, Holder should receive as interest under this Note an amount which would exceed the then highest lawful rate, the amount by which such interest payment would exceed such highest lawful rate shall be applied to the reduction of the principal balance owing hereunder without prepayment or penalty (or, at Holders option, be paid to Maker) and in no event shall be counted as interest. To the fullest extent permitted by then applicable law, the determination of the legal maximum amount of interest shall at any and all times be made by amortizing, prorating, allocating and spreading in equal parts over the period of the full stated term of this Note, all interest at any time contracted for, charged or received from Maker in connection with this Note and all other agreements between Maker and Holder pertaining to the subject matter hereof, so that the actual rate of interest on account of the indebtedness represented by this Note is uniform throughout the term hereof and complies with all applicable law.
18. Non-Recourse; Exceptions to Non-Recourse .
(a) Nothing contained in the Loan Documents shall be deemed to impair, limit or prejudice Holders rights in foreclosure proceedings or in any ancillary proceedings brought to facilitate Holders foreclosure on the Property or any portion thereof or to exercise any specific rights or remedies afforded Holder under any other provisions of the Loan Documents or by law or in equity, subject to the non-recourse provisions set forth below, to recover under any guarantee given in connection with the Loan or to pursue any personal liability of Maker or any Guarantor under the Guaranty Agreement, the Environmental Indemnity Agreement or the ERISA indemnity provisions of the Mortgage. Except as expressly hereinafter set forth, the recourse of Holder with respect to the obligations evidenced by this Note, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents (except for the Guaranty and the Environmental Indemnity Agreement) shall be solely to the Property, Chattels and Intangible Personalty (as such terms are defined in the Mortgage).
Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary contained in this Note, the Mortgage or in any other Loan Document, nothing shall be deemed in any way to impair, limit or prejudice the rights of Holder to collect or recover from Maker (but not any member, manager, officer, director or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing, with the exclusion of the Guarantors) and Guarantors: (i) damages or costs (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys fees) incurred by Holder as a result of any intentional waste by Maker; (ii) any condemnation award or insurance proceeds attributable to the Property which were not paid to Holder or used to restore the Property in accordance with the terms of the Mortgage; (iii) any Rents, profits, security deposits, advances, rebates, prepaid rents or other similar sums attributable to the Property collected by or for Maker (x) following an Event of Default under any Loan Document and not properly applied to the reasonable fixed and operating expenses of the Property, including, without limitation, payments due on this Note and other sums due under the Loan Documents or (y) to the extent not deposited into the Lockbox Account; (iv) any security deposits collected by or for Maker and not applied in accordance with the applicable Leases (as such term is defined in the Mortgage); (v) the amount of any accrued taxes, assessments, and/or utility charges affecting the Property (whether or not the same have been billed to Maker) that are either unpaid by Maker or advanced by Holder under the Mortgage, except, in respect of the Property, to the extent of any of the foregoing accruing after the Termination Date (as hereinafter defined) with respect to the Property; (vi) any sums expended by Holder in fulfilling the obligations of Maker, as lessor, under any Lease affecting the Property; (vii) the amount of any loss suffered by Holder (that would otherwise be covered by insurance and available to Holder in accordance with the Loan Documents) as a result of Makers failure to maintain any insurance required under the terms of any Loan Document; and (viii) losses, damages and costs (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys fees) incurred by Holder as a result of any fraud of material misrepresentation by Maker in connection with the Property or any of the Loan Documents. For the avoidance of doubt, the matters set forth in this paragraph (a) shall be fully recourse to Maker (but not any member, manager, officer, director or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing, with the exclusion of the Guarantors) and Guarantor.

In the event of any default under the Loan Documents, Lender shall have all rights with respect to the Property that are granted by the Loan Documents.

(c) Section 18(a) of the Note shall be amended and restated as follows:

Except as expressly hereinafter set forth, the recourse of Holder with respect to the obligations evidenced by this Note, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents (except for the Guaranty and the Environmental Indemnity Agreement) shall be solely to the Property, Chattels and Intangible Personalty (as such terms are defined in the Mortgage). Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary contained in this Note, the Mortgage or in any other Loan Document, nothing shall be deemed in any way to impair, limit or prejudice the rights of Holder to collect or recover from Maker (but not any member, manager, officer, director or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing, with the exclusion of the Guarantors) and
Guarantors: (i) damages or costs (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys fees) incurred by Holder as a result of any intentional waste by Maker; (ii) any condemnation award or insurance proceeds attributable to the Property which were not paid to Holder or used to restore the Property in accordance with the terms of the Mortgage; (iii) any Rents, profits, security deposits, advances, rebates, prepaid rents or other similar sums attributable to the Property collected by or for Maker (x) following an Event of Default under any Loan Document and not properly applied to the reasonable fixed and operating expenses of the Property, including, without limitation, payments due on this Note and other sums due under the Loan Documents or (y) to the extent not deposited into the Lockbox Account; (iv) any security deposits collected by or for Maker and not applied in accordance with the applicable Leases (as such term is defined in the Mortgage); (v) the amount of any accrued taxes, assessments, and/or utility charges affecting the Property (whether or not the same have been billed to Maker) that are either unpaid by Maker or advanced by Holder under the Mortgage, except, in respect of the Property, to the extent of any of the foregoing accruing after the Termination Date (as hereinafter defined) with respect to the Property; (vi) any sums expended by Holder in fulfilling the obligations of Maker, as lessor, under any Lease affecting the Property; (vii) the amount of any loss suffered by Holder (that would otherwise be covered by insurance and available to Holder in accordance with the Loan Documents) as a result of Makers failure to maintain any insurance required under the terms of any Loan Document; (viii) losses, damages and costs (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys fees) incurred by Holder as a result of any fraud or material misrepresentation by Maker in connection with the Property or any of the Loan Documents, and (ix) the amount of any losses, damages and costs suffered by Holder as a result of Makers making any REIT Distributions (as defined in the Cash Management Agreement) in accordance with Section 4(a)(ii)(I) of the Cash Management Agreement following a REIT Triggering Event (as defined in the Cash Management Agreement), provided that such amount shall not exceed the amount of such REIT Distributions made to Maker under Section 4(a)(ii)(I) of the Cash Management Agreement, which amounts would have been deposited into the Excess Cash Subaccount (as defined in the Cash Management Agreement) for application pursuant to the Cash Management Agreement if such REIT Distributions were not permitted under Section 4(a)(ii)(I) of the Cash Management Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, the matters set forth in this paragraph (a) shall be fully recourse to Maker (but not any member, manager, officer, director or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing, with the exclusion of the Guarantors) and Guarantor. For the purposes of this Section 18(a) , the Termination Date is, in respect of the Property, the earliest of (x) the date that Maker tenders to Holder or Holders designee a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure in respect of the Property, subject to no title exceptions other than real estate taxes and assessments, the Permitted Exceptions (as defined in the applicable Mortgage) and such additional exceptions approved by Holder pursuant to the Loan Documents or which are otherwise acceptable to Holder in its reasonable discretion, together with such ancillary conveyances, releases and other documentation that are customarily delivered in connection with a deed-in-
lieu of foreclosure transaction, all in form reasonably satisfactory to Holder, and such deed-in-lieu of foreclosure is accepted by Holder in its sole discretion (y) the date that Maker tenders to Holder a stipulation to entry of judgment of foreclosure in respect of the Property, and (z) the date Holder, any Affiliate of Holder, or any other party takes title to the Property in connection with a foreclosure of the applicable Mortgage that encumbers the Property. If Maker elects to deliver a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure in respect of the Property, Holder shall retain the right to determine whether to accept such deed-in-lieu of foreclosure or to proceed with foreclosure proceedings and, upon Holder making such election, Maker shall execute and deliver to Holder an appropriate deed-in-lieu of foreclosure in respect of the Property, as Holder shall have elected; provided, however, that if Holder chooses to proceed with foreclosure proceedings in respect of the Property, the Termination Date shall nonetheless be the earliest of the date specified in clause (x), (y) and (z) above, provided further that if Maker thereafter fails to cooperate with Holder in respect of Holders exercise of any and all remedies available at law or in equity to Holder (including, without limitation, foreclosure), then the Termination Date shall be the earlier of the date specified in clause (y) or (z) above.
(d) Section 18(b) of the Note shall be amended and restated as follows:
(b) The agreement contained in this Section 18 to limit the personal liability of Maker to its interest in the Property, Chattels and Intangible Personalty shall become null and void and be of no further force and effect, and Maker (but not any member, manager, officer, director or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing, with the exclusion of the Guarantors) and Guarantors shall be personally liable for the repayment of the Secured Obligations (as such term is defined in the Mortgage) in the event (i) that the Property, or any part thereof or any interest therein, or any interest in Maker, or any of them, shall be further encumbered by a voluntary lien securing any obligation upon which Maker, or any of them, any direct or indirect general partner, manager or managing member such Maker, any Guarantor, any of the Mortgagor Control Persons (as defined in the Mortgage) or any principal or affiliate of Maker, or any of them, shall be personally liable for repayment, either as obligor or guarantor, (ii) of any breach or violation of Section 5.4, 5.5 or 5.7 of the Mortgage, (iii) that Maker forfeits the Property or the Chattels or any portion of the Property or Chattels due to criminal activity, (iv) any attempt by Maker, any Guarantor or any Mortgagor Owner Person (as defined in the Mortgage) to materially delay any foreclosure against the Property, Chattels and/or Intangible Personalty, or any portion of the Property, the Chattels and/or the Intangible Personalty or any other exercise by Holder of its remedies under the Loan Documents, which attempts shall (x) include, without limitation, (A) any claim made by Maker that any Loan Document is invalid or unenforceable to an extent that would preclude any such foreclosure or other exercise of remedies, (B) Maker filing a petition in bankruptcy, Maker acquiescing in an involuntary bankruptcy proceeding, Maker failing to oppose in good faith the entry of an order for relief pursuant to any involuntary bankruptcy
filed against it, or Maker filing a petition or answer seeking any reorganization, arrangement, composition, readjustment, liquidation, dissolution or similar relief under the bankruptcy laws of the United States or under any other similar federal, state or other statute relating to relief from indebtedness (whether filed by or against Maker), or (C) the appointment of a receiver, trustee or liquidator by Maker, any Guarantor or any Mortgagor Owner Person with respect to Maker or the Property or any part thereof and (y) shall not include a defense to a foreclosure that is (A) not frivolous and is advanced in good faith and (B) based upon a default by Holder under terms of the Loan Documents, or (v) any execution, amendment, modification, assignment or early termination of any Lease of any Required Tenant made in violation of the Loan Documents. For the avoidance of doubt, no such termination of any Lease shall excuse Maker from the performance of its obligations under the Loan Documents.

PROMISSORY NOTE
U.S. $3,683,700 |
March 8, 2011 |
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, and at all times hereafter specified, WU/LH 470 BRIDGEPORT L.L.C. , a Delaware limited liability company (Maker ), having an address at c/o Lighthouse Real Estate Management LLC, 60 Hempstead Avenue, Suite 718, West Hempstead, New York 11552, promises to pay to the order of FIRST SUNAMERICA LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY , a New York corporation, having an address at 1 SunAmerica Center, Century City, Los Angeles, California 90067-6022 (hereinafter referred to, together with each subsequent holder hereof, as Holder ), or at such other address as may be designated from time to time hereafter by any Holder, the principal sum of THREE MILLION SIX HUNDRED EIGHTY-THREE THOUSAND SEVEN HUNDRED AND NO/100THS DOLLARS ($3,683,700), together with interest on the principal balance outstanding from time to time, as hereinafter provided, in lawful money of the United States of America.
By its execution and delivery of this promissory note (this Note ), Maker covenants and agrees as follows:
1. Interest Rate and Payments .
(a) The balance of principal outstanding from time to time under this Note shall bear interest at the rate of five and seventy-six hundredths percent (5.76%) per annum (the Original Interest Rate ), computed on the basis of a three hundred sixty (360) day year composed of twelve (12) months of thirty (30) days each; however, interest for partial months shall be calculated by multiplying the principal balance of this Note by the applicable interest rate (i.e., the Original Interest Rate or the New Rate (hereinafter defined)), dividing the product by three hundred sixty (360), and multiplying that result by the actual number of days elapsed.
(b) Interest only on this Note shall be payable on the date the loan evidenced by this Note (the Loan ) is funded by Holder, in advance, for the period from and including the date hereof through and including March 31, 2011.
(c) Commencing on May 1, 2011 and on the first day of each month thereafter through and including April 1, 2012, (each such date a Interest Only Payment Date ) payments of interest only shall be payable, in arrears, in the amount of $17,681.76.
(d) Commencing on May 1, 2012 and on the first day of each month thereafter through and including the first day of the month immediately preceding the Maturity Date (each such date a Principal and Interest Payment Date and together with any Interest Only Payment Date, referred to herein, collectively, as a Payment Date ), combined payments of principal and interest shall be payable, in arrears, in the amount of $23,196.66 each (such amount representing an amount that would be sufficient to fully amortize the original principal amount of this Note over a twenty-five (25) year period (the Amortization Period ), if such amortization were based on a three hundred sixty (360) day year composed of twelve (12) months of thirty (30) days each).
(e) The entire outstanding principal balance, and all other amounts due under this Note and the other Loan Documents (as hereinafter defined), together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, shall be due and payable in full on April 1, 2018 (the Maturity Date ).
2. Holders Extension Option; Net Operating Income . The provisions of this Section 2 concern the election of Holder to extend the term of the Loan for the Extension Term (as defined below) and certain obligations of Maker during the Extension Term.
(a) If Maker shall fail to pay the outstanding principal balance of this Note and all accrued interest and other charges due hereon and all other amounts due under the Loan Documents, at the Maturity Date, Holder shall have the right, at Holders sole option and discretion, to extend the term of the Loan for an additional period of five (5) years (the Extension Term ) and require Maker to make additional monthly payments of net operating income as provided herein. If Holder elects to extend the term of the Loan, Maker shall pay all fees of Holder incurred in connection with such extension, including, but not limited to, attorneys fees and title insurance premiums. Maker shall execute all documents reasonably requested by Holder to evidence and secure the Loan, as extended, and shall obtain and provide to Holder any title insurance policy or endorsement requested by Holder. If Holder elects to extend the term of the loan for the Extension Term, no Event of Default shall be deemed to exist solely by reason of the failure by Maker to pay such outstanding principal balance of this Note and all accrued interest and other charges due hereunder, and all other amounts due under the Loan Documents, on the Maturity Date.
(b) Should Holder elect to extend the term of the Loan as provided above, Holder shall: (i) reset the interest rate borne by the then-existing principal balance of the Loan to a rate per annum (the New Rate ) equal to the greater of (A) the Original Interest Rate, or (B) Holders (or comparable lenders, if Holder is no longer making such loans) then-prevailing interest rate for five (5) year loans secured by properties similar to the Property (hereinafter defined), as determined by Holder in its sole discretion; (ii) re-amortize the then-existing principal balance of the Loan over the Amortization Period; (iii) have the right to require Maker to enter into modifications of the non-economic terms of the Loan Documents as Holder may request (the Non-Economic Modifications ); and (iv) notwithstanding any provision set forth in the Loan Documents to the contrary, have the right to require Maker to make monthly payments into escrow for insurance premiums and real property taxes, assessments and similar governmental charges. Hence, monthly principal and interest payments during the Extension Term shall be based upon the New Rate, in an amount that would be sufficient to fully amortize the outstanding principal balance of the Loan over the Amortization Period.
(c) If Holder elects to extend the term of the Loan, Holder shall advise Maker of the New Rate on or prior to the Maturity Date, but in no event shall the term be extended unless Holder is entitled to do so under Section 2(a) above.
(d) In addition to the required monthly payments of principal and interest set forth above, commencing on the first day of the second month following the Maturity Date and continuing on the first day of each month thereafter during the Extension Term (each an Additional Payment Date ), Maker shall make monthly payments to Holder in an
amount equal to all Net Operating Income (hereinafter defined) attributable to the Property for the calendar month ending on the last day of the month that is two months preceding each such Additional Payment Date. For example, assuming the Maturity Date is January 1, then Net Operating Income for the period from January 1 through January 31 shall be payable to Holder on March 1; Net Operating Income for the period from February 1 through February 28 shall be payable to Holder on April 1, and so on.
(e) Holder shall deposit all such Net Operating Income received from Maker into an account or accounts maintained at a financial institution chosen by Holder or its Servicer in its sole discretion (the Deposit Account ) and all such funds shall be invested in a manner acceptable to Holder in its sole discretion. All interest, dividends and earnings credited to the Deposit Account shall be held and applied in accordance with the terms hereof.
(f) On the third Additional Payment Date and on each third Additional Payment Date thereafter, Holder shall apply all Excess Funds (hereinafter defined), if any, to prepayment of amounts due under this Note, without premium or penalty.
(g) As security for the repayment of the Loan and the performance of all other obligations of Maker under the Loan Documents, Maker hereby assigns, pledges, conveys, delivers, transfers and grants to Holder a first priority security interest in and to: (i) all Makers right, title and interest in and to the Deposit Account; (ii) all rights to payment from the Deposit Account and the money deposited therein or credited thereto (whether then due or in the future due and whether then or in the future on deposit); (iii) all interest thereon; (iv) any certificates, instruments and securities, if any, representing the Deposit Account; (v) all claims, demands, general intangibles, choses in action and other rights or interests of Maker in respect of the Deposit Account; (vi) any monies then or at any time thereafter deposited therein; and (vii) any increases, renewals, extensions, substitutions and replacements thereof and all proceeds of the foregoing.
(h) From time to time, but not more frequently than monthly, Maker may request a disbursement (a Disbursement ) from the Deposit Account for capital expenses, tenant improvement expenses, leasing commissions and special contingency expenses. Holder may consent to or deny any such Disbursement in its sole discretion.
(i) During the existence of an Event of Default (hereinafter defined), (i) Maker shall not be entitled to any Disbursement from the Deposit Account and (ii) Holder shall be entitled to take immediate possession and control of the Deposit Account (and all funds contained therein) and to pursue all of its rights and remedies available to Holder under the Loan Documents, at law and in equity.
(j) All of the terms and conditions of the Loan shall apply during the Extension Term, except as expressly set forth above, and except that no further extensions of the Loan shall be permitted.
(k) For the purposes of the foregoing:
(i) Excess Funds shall mean, on any Additional Payment Date, the amount of funds then existing in the Deposit Account (including any
Net Operating Income due on the applicable Additional Payment Date), less an amount equal to the sum of three regularly scheduled payments of principal and interest due on this Note;
(ii) Net Operating Income shall mean, for any particular period of time, Gross Revenue for the relevant period, less Operating Expenses for the relevant period; provided, however, that if such amount is equal to or less than zero (0), Net Operating Income shall equal zero (0);
(iii) Gross Revenue shall mean all payments and other revenues (exclusive, however, of any payments attributable to sales taxes) received by or on behalf of Maker from all sources related to the ownership or operation of the Property, including, but not limited to, rents, room charges, parking fees, interest, security deposits (unless required to be held in a segregated account), business interruption insurance proceeds, operating expense pass-through revenues, direct expense reimbursements and common area maintenance charges, for the relevant period for which the calculation of Gross Revenue is being made; and
(iv) Operating Expenses shall mean the sum of all ordinary and necessary operating expenses actually paid by Maker in connection with the operation of the Property during the relevant period for which the calculation of Operating Expenses is being made, including, but not limited to, (a) payments made by Maker for taxes and insurance required under the Loan Documents and (b) monthly debt service payments as required under this Note.
3. Budgets During Extension Term .
(a) Within fifteen (15) Business Days (as defined below) following the Maturity Date and on or before December 1 of each subsequent calendar year, Maker shall deliver to Holder a proposed revenue and expense budget for the Property for the remainder of the calendar year in which the Maturity Date occurs or the immediately succeeding calendar year (as applicable). Such budget shall set forth Makers projection of Gross Revenue and Operating Expenses for the applicable calendar year, which shall be subject to Holders reasonable approval. Once a proposed budget has been reviewed and approved by Holder, and Maker has made all revisions requested by Holder, if any, the revised budget shall be delivered to Holder and shall thereafter become the budget for the Property hereunder (any such budget referred to as the Budget ) for the applicable calendar year. If Maker and Holder are unable to agree upon a Budget for any calendar year, the budgeted Operating Expenses (excluding extraordinary items) provided in the Budget for the Property for the preceding calendar year shall be considered the Budget for the Property for the subject calendar year until Maker and Holder agree upon a new Budget for such calendar year.
(b) During the Extension Term, Maker shall operate the Property in accordance with the applicable Budget for the applicable calendar year, and the total of expenditures relating to the Property exceeding one hundred and five percent (105%) of the aggregate of such expenses set forth in the applicable Budget for the applicable time period shall not be treated as Operating Expenses for the purposes of calculating Net Operating Income, without the prior written consent of Holder except for emergency expenditures which, in Makers
good faith judgment, are reasonably necessary to protect, or avoid immediate danger to, life or property.
4. Reports During Extension Term .
(a) During the Extension Term, Maker shall deliver to Holder all financial statements reasonably required by Holder to calculate Net Operating Income, including, without limitation, a monthly statement to be delivered to Holder concurrently with Makers payment of Net Operating Income that sets forth the amount of Net Operating Income accompanying such statement and Makers calculation of Net Operating Income for the relevant calendar month. Such statements shall be certified by an executive officer of Maker or Makers manager, managing member or general partner (as applicable) as having been prepared in accordance with the terms hereof and to be true, accurate and complete in all material respects.
(b) In addition, on or before February 1 of each calendar year during the Extension Term, Maker shall submit to Holder an annual income and expense statement for the Property which shall include the calculation of Gross Revenue, Operating Expenses and Net Operating Income for the preceding calendar year and shall be accompanied by Makers reconciliation of any difference between the actual aggregate amount of the Net Operating Income for such calendar year and the aggregate amount of Net Operating Income for such calendar year actually remitted to Holder. All such statements shall be certified by an executive officer of Maker or Makers manager, managing member or general partner (as applicable) as having been prepared in accordance with the terms hereof and to be true, accurate and complete in all material respects. If any such annual financial statement discloses any inconsistency between the calculation of Net Operating Income and the amount of Net Operating Income actually remitted to Holder, Maker shall immediately remit to Holder the amount of any underpayment of Net Operating Income for such calendar year or, in the event of an overpayment by Maker, such amount may be withheld from any subsequent payment of Net Operating Income required hereunder.
(c) Holder may notify Maker within ninety (90) days after receipt of any statement or report required hereunder that Holder disputes any computation or item contained in any portion of such statement or report. If Holder so notifies Maker, Holder and Maker shall meet in good faith within twenty (20) days after Holders notice to Maker to resolve such disputed items. If, despite such good faith efforts, the parties are unable to resolve the dispute at such meeting or within ten (10) days thereafter, the items shall be resolved by an independent certified public accountant designated by Holder within fifteen (15) days after such ten (10) day period. The determination of such accountant shall be final. All fees of such accountant shall be paid by Maker. Maker shall remit to Holder any additional amount of Net Operating Income found to be due for such periods within ten (10) days after the resolution of such dispute by the parties or the accountants determination, as applicable. The amount of any overpayment found to have been made for such periods may be withheld from any required future remittance of Net Operating Income.
(d) Maker shall at all times keep and maintain full and accurate books of account and records adequate to reflect correctly all items required in order to calculate Net Operating Income.
5. Prepayment
(a) Maker shall have no right to prepay all or any part of this Note prior to the date that is the last day of the forty-second (42) month following the date of this Note (the Lockout Expiration Date ).
(b) At any time following the Lockout Expiration Date, Maker shall have the right to prepay the full principal amount of this Note, and all other amounts due under this Note and the other Loan Documents, and all accrued but unpaid interest thereon as of the date of prepayment, provided that (i) Maker gives not less than thirty (30) days prior written notice to Holder of Makers election to prepay, this Note, (ii) Maker pays a prepayment premium to Holder equal to the greater of (A) one percent (1%) of the outstanding principal amount of this Note or (B) the Present Value of this Note (hereinafter defined), less the amount of principal being prepaid, calculated as of the prepayment date and (iii) Maker prepays each of the other Additional Notes (as such term is defined in the Mortgage) and all other amounts due under the Additional Notes and the other Additional Loan Documents (as such term is defined in the Mortgage), and all accrued but unpaid interest thereon as of the date of prepayment.
(c) Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 5 , no prepayment premium shall be due (i) in connection with any involuntary prepayment due to the Holders application of any insurance proceeds or condemnation awards to the principal balance of the Loan or (ii) if Maker provides additional funds to prepay the Loan in connection with the application of any insurance proceeds or condemnation awards to the principal balance of the Loan following any casualty or condemnation; provided, in any such case, that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such application of insurance proceeds or condemnation awards.
(d) Holder shall notify Maker in writing of the amount and basis of determination of the prepayment premium. Holder shall not be obligated to accept any prepayment of the principal balance of this Note unless such prepayment is accompanied by (i) the applicable prepayment premium, (ii) the outstanding principal balance of the Loan, (iii) all accrued interest and other sums due under this Note and all other amounts due under the Loan Documents and (iv) the outstanding principal balance of the Additional Loans (as such term is defined in the Mortgage) all accrued interest and other sums due under the Additional Notes and all other amounts due under the Additional Loan Documents. Maker may not prepay the Loan on a Friday, nor on any public holiday or the equivalent for banks generally under the laws of the State of New York or on any day preceding a public holiday, or the equivalent for banks generally under the laws of the State of New York.
(e) Except for making payments of Net Operating Income as required above, and except for the application of insurance proceeds or condemnation awards to the principal balance of this Note, as provided in the Mortgage (hereinafter defined), in no event shall Maker be permitted to make any partial prepayments of this Note.
(f) If Holder accelerates this Note for any reason, then in addition to Makers obligation to pay the then outstanding principal balance of this Note and all accrued but unpaid interest thereon, Maker shall pay an additional amount equal to the prepayment premium that would be due to Holder if Maker were voluntarily prepaying this Note at the time
that such acceleration occurred, or if under the terms hereof no voluntary prepayment would be permissible on the date of such acceleration, Maker shall pay a prepayment premium equal to 150% of the highest prepayment premium set forth in this Note, calculated as of the date of such acceleration as if prepayment were permitted on such date.
(g) For the purposes of the foregoing:
(i) The Present Value of this Note with respect to any prepayment of this Note, as of any date, shall be determined by discounting all scheduled payments of principal and interest remaining to maturity of this Note, attributed to the amount being prepaid, at the Discount Rate. If prepayment occurs on a date other than a Payment Date, the actual number of days remaining from the prepayment date to the next Payment Date will be used to calculate such discount within such period;
(ii) The Discount Rate is the rate which, when compounded monthly, is equivalent to the Treasury Rate, when compounded semi-annually;
(iii) The Treasury Rate is the semi-annual yield on the Treasury Constant Maturity Series with maturity equal to the remaining weighted average life of this Note, for the week prior to the prepayment date, as reported in Federal Reserve Statistical Release H. 15 - Selected Interest Rates, conclusively determined by Holder on the prepayment date. The rate will be determined by linear interpolation between the yields reported in Release H.15, if necessary. In the event Release H.15 is no longer published, Holder shall select a comparable publication to determine the Treasury Rate.
(h) Holder shall not be obligated actually to reinvest the amount prepaid in any treasury obligations as a condition precedent to receiving any prepayment premium.
(i) Notwithstanding the foregoing, (A) at any time during the Extension Term, Maker shall have the right to prepay in full, but not in part, the principal amount of this Note and all accrued but unpaid interest thereon as of the date of prepayment, without prepayment premium thereon and (B) no prepayment premium shall be due in connection with the prepayment of the full principal amount of this Note, and all other amounts due under this Note and the other Loan Documents, and all accrued but unpaid interest thereon as of the date of prepayment, during the ninety (90) day period prior to the Maturity Date.
6. Payments . Whenever any payment to be made under this Note shall be stated to be due on a Saturday, Sunday or public holiday or the equivalent for banks generally under the laws of the State of New York (any other day being a Business Day ), such payment may be made on the next succeeding Business Day.
7. Default Rate .
(a) The entire balance of principal, interest, and any other sums due under this Note and the other Loan Documents upon the maturity hereof, by acceleration or otherwise, shall bear interest from the date due until paid at the greater of (i) eighteen percent (18%) per annum and (ii) a per annum rate equal to four percent (4%) over the prime rate published
in The Wall Street Journal on the first business day of each month (the Default Rate ); provided, however, that such rate shall not exceed the maximum permitted by applicable state or federal law. In the event The Wall Street Journal is no longer published or no longer publishes such prime rate, Holder shall select a comparable reference.
(b) If any payment under this Note or any of the Additional Notes is not made when due, interest shall accrue at the Default Rate from the date such payment was due until payment is actually made.
8. Late Charges . In addition to interest as set forth herein, Maker shall pay to Holder a late charge equal to four percent (4%) of any amounts due under this Note in the event any such amount is not paid when due. Notwithstanding the foregoing provision, Holder will allow for one (1) five (5) day grace period upon monetary default without the obligation of paying a late charge in any twelve (12) month period during the term of the Loan.
9. Application of Payments . All payments hereunder shall be applied in the following order: (i) first, to the payment of late charges, if any; (ii) second, to the payment of prepayment premiums, if any; (iii) third, to the repayment of any sums advanced by Holder for the payment of any insurance premiums, taxes, assessments or other charges against the Property securing this Note and any other costs and expenses incurred by Holder in accordance with the Loan Documents (together with interest thereon at the Default Rate from the date of advance until repaid), if any; (iv) fourth, to the payment of accrued and unpaid interest and other amounts due and payable under the Loan Documents (other than principal), if any; and (v) fifth, to the reduction of principal. Notwithstanding the foregoing, for so long as any Event of Default is continuing, Holder shall have the continuing right to apply any payment received by Holder from or on behalf of Maker as Holder may elect against the due and owing obligations of Maker under the Note and the other Loan Documents in such order of priority or in such allocations as Holder may deem advisable in its sole and absolute discretion.
10. Immediately Available Funds . All payments under this Note shall be payable in immediately available funds without setoff, counterclaim or deduction of any kind, and shall be made by electronic funds transfer from a bank account established and maintained by Maker for such purpose.
11. Security . This Note is secured by, among other things, (i) that certain (a) Open-End Mortgage, Assignment of Leases and Rents, Security Agreement and Fixture Filing, of even date herewith, granted by Maker for the benefit of Holder (the Mortgage ) encumbering certain real property and improvements located at 470 Bridgeport Avenue, Shelton, Connecticut 06484, as more particularly described in the Mortgage (the Property ), (ii) a Guaranty Agreement from Paul Cooper, Jeffrey Ravetz and Louis Sheinker (collectively, Guarantors ), in favor of Holder (the Guaranty ) and (iii) the Affiliate Guaranty (as such term is defined in the Mortgage).
12. Certain Definitions . Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings set forth in the Mortgage.
13. Event of Default . Each of the following events will constitute an event of default (an Event of Default ) under this Note and under the Mortgage and each other
document evidencing or securing or executed in connection with the Loan (collectively, the Loan Documents ), and any Event of Default under any Loan Document shall constitute an Event of Default hereunder and under each of the other Loan Documents:
(a) any failure to pay when due any interest, principal or other amount in a sum certain under this Note or under any of the other Loan Documents for which sum there is a scheduled date for payment or for which there is a date certain for payment.
(b) any failure to pay within ten (10) days following demand by Holder for any amount other than any amount described in Section 13(a) above; or
(c) any failure of Maker to properly perform any obligation contained herein or in any of the other Loan Documents (other than the obligation to make payments under this Note or the other Loan Documents) and the continuance of such failure for a period of thirty (30) days following written notice thereof from Holder to Maker; provided, however, that if such failure is not curable within such thirty (30) day period, then, so long as Maker commences to cure such failure within such thirty (30) day period and is continually and diligently attempting to cure to completion, such failure shall not be an Event of Default unless such failure remains uncured for one hundred twenty (120) days after such written notice to Maker; or
(d) if, at any time during the Extension Term, Gross Revenue for any calendar month shall be less than ninety-three percent (93%) of the amount of projected Gross Revenue for such month set forth in the applicable Budget; or
(e) the occurrence of any event that is deemed to be an Event of Default under any provision of this Note, the Mortgage, the Affiliate Guaranty any other Loan Document or any Additional Loan Document.
14. Acceleration . If at any time an Event of Default exists, the entire balance of principal, accrued interest and other sums owing hereunder shall, at the option of Holder, become at once due and payable without notice or demand. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default described in Section 13(d) hereof, Holder shall have the option, in its sole and absolute discretion, to either (a) exercise any remedies available to Holder under the Loan Documents, at law or in equity, or (b) require Maker to submit a new proposed budget for Holders approval. If Holder agrees to accept such new proposed budget, then such budget shall become the Budget for all purposes hereunder. If an Event of Default exists, Holder may exercise any right, power or remedy permitted by law or set forth herein or in the Mortgage or any other Loan Document.
15. Conditions Precedent . Maker hereby certifies and declares that all acts, conditions and things required to be done or performed or have happened precedent to the creation and issuance of this Note, and in order to constitute this Note the legal, valid and binding obligation of Maker, enforceable in accordance with the terms hereof, have been done or performed or have happened in due and strict compliance with all applicable laws.
16. Certain Waivers and Consents . Maker and all parties now or hereafter liable for the payment hereof, primarily or secondarily, directly or indirectly, and
whether as endorser, guarantor, surety, or otherwise, hereby severally (a) waive presentment, demand, protest, notice of protest and/or dishonor, and all other demands or notices of any sort whatever with respect to this Note, (b) consent to impairment or release of collateral, extensions of time for payment, and acceptance of partial payments before, at, or after maturity, (c) waive any right to require Holder to proceed against any security for this Note before proceeding hereunder, (d) waive diligence in the collection of this Note or in filing suit on this Note and (e) agree to pay all out-of-pocket costs and expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys fees, which may be actually incurred in the collection of this Note or any part thereof or in preserving, securing possession of and realizing upon any security for this Note.
17. Usury Savings Clause . The provisions of this Note and of all agreements between Maker and Holder are, whether now existing or hereinafter made, hereby expressly limited so that in no contingency or event whatsoever, whether by reason of acceleration of the maturity hereof, prepayment, demand for payment or otherwise, shall the amount paid, or agreed to be paid, to Holder for the use, forbearance or detention of the principal hereof or interest hereon, which remains unpaid from time to time, exceed the maximum amount permissible under applicable law. In particular, it is the intention of the parties hereto to conform strictly to Connecticut and Federal law, whichever is applicable. If as a result of any circumstance whatsoever, the performance or fulfillment of any provision hereof or of any other agreement between Maker and Holder pertaining to the subject matter hereof shall, at the time performance or fulfillment of such provision is due, involve or purport to require any payment in excess of the limits then prescribed by applicable law, then the obligation to be performed or fulfilled shall hereby be reduced to such limit as to be valid under such applicable law, and if as a result of any circumstance whatsoever, Holder should receive as interest under this Note an amount which would exceed the then highest lawful rate, the amount by which such interest payment would exceed such highest lawful rate shall be applied to the reduction of the principal balance owing hereunder without prepayment or penalty (or, at Holders option, be paid to Maker) and in no event shall be counted as interest. To the fullest extent permitted by then applicable law, the determination of the legal maximum amount of interest shall at any and all times be made by amortizing, prorating, allocating and spreading in equal parts over the period of the full stated term of this Note, all interest at any time contracted for, charged or received from Maker in connection with this Note and all other agreements between Maker and Holder pertaining to the subject matter hereof, so that the actual rate of interest on account of the indebtedness represented by this Note is uniform throughout the term hereof and complies with all applicable law.
18. Non-Recourse; Exceptions to Non-Recourse .
(a) Nothing contained in the Loan Documents shall be deemed to impair, limit or prejudice Holders rights in foreclosure proceedings or in any ancillary proceedings brought to facilitate Holders foreclosure on the Property or any portion thereof or to exercise any specific rights or remedies afforded Holder under any other provisions of the Loan Documents or by law or in equity, subject to the non-recourse provisions set forth below, to recover under any guarantee given in connection with the Loan or to pursue any personal liability of Maker or any Guarantor under the Guaranty Agreement, the Environmental Indemnity Agreement or the ERISA indemnity provisions of the Mortgage. Except as expressly hereinafter set forth, the recourse of Holder with respect to the obligations evidenced by this Note, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents (except for the Guaranty and the Environmental
Indemnity Agreement) shall be solely to the Property, Chattels and Intangible Personalty (as such terms are defined in the Mortgage). Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary contained in this Note, the Mortgage or in any other Loan Document, nothing shall be deemed in any way to impair, limit or prejudice the rights of Holder to collect or recover from Maker (but not any member, manager, officer, director or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing, with the exclusion of the Guarantors) and Guarantors: (i) damages or costs (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys fees) incurred by Holder as a result of any intentional waste by Maker; (ii) any condemnation award or insurance proceeds attributable to the Property which were not paid to Holder or used to restore the Property in accordance with the terms of the Mortgage; (iii) any Rents, profits, security deposits, advances, rebates, prepaid rents or other similar sums attributable to the Property collected by or for Maker (x) following an Event of Default under any Loan Document and not properly applied to the-reasonable fixed and operating expenses of the Property, including, without limitation, payments due on this Note and other sums due under the Loan Documents or (y) to the extent not deposited into the Lockbox Account; (iv) any security deposits collected by or for Maker and not applied in accordance with the applicable Leases (as such term is defined in the Mortgage); (v) the amount of any accrued taxes, assessments, and/or utility charges affecting the Property (whether or not the same have been billed to Maker) that are either unpaid by Maker or advanced by Holder under the Mortgage, except, in respect of the Property, to the extent of any of the foregoing accruing after the Termination Date (as hereinafter defined) with respect to the Property; (vi) any sums expended by Holder in fulfilling the obligations of Maker, as lessor, under any Lease affecting the Property; (vii) the amount of any loss suffered by Holder (that would otherwise be covered by insurance and available to Holder in accordance with the Loan Documents) as a result of Makers failure to maintain any insurance required under the terms of any Loan Document; and (viii) losses, damages and costs (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys fees) incurred by Holder as a result of any fraud of material misrepresentation by Maker in connection with the Property or any of the Loan Documents. For the avoidance of doubt, the matters set forth in this paragraph (a) shall be fully recourse to Maker (but not any member, manager, officer, director or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing, with the exclusion of the Guarantors) and Guarantor. For the purposes of this Section 18(a) , the Termination Date is, in respect of the Property, the earliest of (x) the date that Maker tenders to Holder or Holders designee a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure in respect of the Property, subject to no title exceptions other than real estate taxes and assessments, the Permitted Exceptions (as defined in the applicable Mortgage) and such additional exceptions approved by Holder pursuant to the Loan Documents or which are otherwise acceptable to Holder in its reasonable discretion, together with such ancillary conveyances, releases and other documentation that are customarily delivered in connection with a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure transaction, all in form reasonably satisfactory to Holder, and such deed-in-lieu of foreclosure is accepted by Holder in its sole discretion (y) the date that Maker tenders to Holder a stipulation to entry of judgment of foreclosure in respect of the Property, and (z) the date Holder, any Affiliate of Holder, or any other party takes title to the Property in connection with a foreclosure of the applicable Mortgage that encumbers the Property. If Maker elects to deliver a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure in respect of the Property, Holder shall retain the right to determine whether to accept such deed-in-lieu of foreclosure or to proceed with foreclosure proceedings and, upon Holder making such election, Maker shall execute and deliver to Holder an appropriate deed-in-lieu of foreclosure in respect of the Property, as Holder shall have elected; provided, however, that if Holder chooses to proceed with foreclosure proceedings in respect of the Property, the Termination Date shall nonetheless be the earliest of the date specified in clause (x), (y) and (z) above, provided further that if Maker thereafter fails to cooperate with
Holder in respect of Holders exercise of any and all remedies available at law or in equity to Holder (including, without limitation, foreclosure), then the Termination Date shall be the earlier of the date specified in clause (y) or (z) above.
(b) The agreement contained in this Section 18 to limit the personal liability of Maker to its interest in the Property, Chattels and Intangible Personalty shall become null and void and be of no further force and effect, and Maker (but not any member, manager, officer, director or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing, with the exclusion of the Guarantors) and Guarantors shall be personally liable for the repayment of the Secured Obligations (as such term is defined in the Mortgage) in the event (i) that the Property, or any part thereof or any interest therein, or any interest in Maker, or any of them, shall be further encumbered by a voluntary lien securing any obligation upon which Maker, or any of them, any direct or indirect general partner, manager or managing member such Maker, any Guarantor, any of the Mortgagor Control Persons (as defined in the Mortgage) or any principal or affiliate of Maker, or any of them, shall be personally liable for repayment, either as obligor or guarantor, (ii) of any breach or violation of Section 5.4, 5.5 or 5.7 of the Mortgage, (iii) that Maker forfeits the Property or the Chattels or any portion of the Property or Chattels due to criminal activity, (iv) any attempt by Maker, any Guarantor or any Mortgagor Owner Person (as defined in the Mortgage) to materially delay any foreclosure against the Property, Chattels and/or Intangible Personalty, or any portion of the Property, the Chattels and/or the Intangible Personalty or any other exercise by Holder of its remedies under the Loan Documents, which attempts shall (x) include, without limitation, (A) any claim made by Maker that any Loan Document is invalid or unenforceable to an extent that would preclude any such foreclosure or other exercise of remedies, (B) Maker filing a petition in bankruptcy, Maker acquiescing in an involuntary bankruptcy proceeding, Maker failing to oppose in good faith the entry of an order for relief pursuant to any involuntary bankruptcy filed against it, or Maker filing a petition or answer seeking any reorganization, arrangement, composition, readjustment, liquidation, dissolution or similar relief under the bankruptcy laws of the United States or under any other similar federal, state or other statute relating to relief from indebtedness (whether filed by or against Maker), or (C) the appointment of a receiver, trustee or liquidator by Maker, any Guarantor or any Mortgagor Owner Person with respect to Maker or the Property or any part thereof and (y) shall not include a defense to a foreclosure that is (A) not frivolous and is advanced in good faith and (B) based upon a default by Holder under terms of the Loan Documents, or (v) any execution, amendment, modification or early termination of any Lease of any Required Tenant made in violation of the Loan Documents. For the avoidance of doubt, no such termination of any Lease shall excuse Maker from the performance of its obligations under the Loan Documents. For purposes of the foregoing, affiliate shall have the meaning ascribed to the term Affiliate in the Mortgage.
19. Severability . If any provision hereof or of any other document securing or otherwise related to the indebtedness evidenced hereby is, for any reason and to any extent, deemed invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction or with respect to any person, entity or circumstances, then neither the remainder of the document in which such provision is contained, nor the application of such provision in respect of other persons, entities, or circumstances, nor any other document referred to herein, shall be affected by such invalidity or lack of enforceability, but, instead, shall be enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by law.
20. Transfer of Note . Each provision of this Note shall be and remain in full force and effect notwithstanding any negotiation or transfer hereof and any interest herein to any other Holder or participant.
21. Governing Law . Regardless of the place of its execution, this Note shall be construed and enforced in accordance with the substantive laws of the State of Connecticut.
22. Time of Essence . Time is of the essence of this Note.
23. Remedies Cumulative . The remedies provided to Holder in this Note, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents are cumulative and concurrent and may be exercised singly, successively or jointly against Maker, the Property, and other security, or against Guarantors or any obligor under, or guarantor of, this Note or the other Loan Documents, at the sole and absolute discretion of Holder.
24. No Waiver . Holder shall not by any act or omission be deemed to have waived any of its rights or remedies hereunder unless such waiver is in writing and signed by Holder and then only to the extent specifically set forth therein. A waiver of one event shall not be construed as continuing or as a bar to or waiver of any right or remedy granted to Holder hereunder in connection with a subsequent event.
25. Joint and Several Obligation . If Maker is more than one person or entity, then: (a) all persons or entities comprising Maker are jointly and severally liable for all of Makers obligations hereunder; (b) all representations, warranties and covenants made by Maker shall be deemed representations, warranties and covenants of each of the persons or entities comprising Maker; (c) any breach, Default or Event of Default by any of the persons or entities comprising Maker hereunder shall be deemed to be a breach, Default or Event of Default of Maker; and (d) any reference herein contained to the knowledge or awareness of Maker shall mean the knowledge or awareness of any of the persons or entities comprising Maker.
26. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL . MAKER AND HOLDER KNOWINGLY, IRREVOCABLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT EITHER MAKER OR HOLDER MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM BASED ON THIS NOTE, OR ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS NOTE, THE MORTGAGE, OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS OR ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT, COURSE OF DEALING, STATEMENT (WHETHER VERBAL OR WRITTEN) OR ACTIONS OF ANY PARTY HERETO OR TO ANY LOAN DOCUMENT. THIS PROVISION IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR MAKER AND HOLDER TO ENTER INTO THE LOAN TRANSACTION EVIDENCED BY THIS NOTE.
27. WAIVER OF PREPAYMENT RIGHT WITHOUT PREMIUM . EXCEPT AS EXPLICITLY SET FORTH HEREIN, MAKER HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE UNDER APPLICABLE LAW TO PREPAY THIS NOTE, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, WITHOUT PREPAYMENT PREMIUM, UPON ACCELERATION OF THE MATURITY DATE OF THIS NOTE, AND AGREES THAT, IF FOR ANY REASON A PREPAYMENT OF ALL OR ANY PART OF THIS NOTE IS MADE, WHETHER
VOLUNTARILY OR FOLLOWING ANY ACCELERATION OF THE MATURITY DATE OF THIS NOTE BY HOLDER ON ACCOUNT OF THE OCCURRENCE OF ANY EVENT OF DEFAULT ARISING FOR ANY REASON, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, AS A RESULT OF ANY PROHIBITED OR RESTRICTED TRANSFER, FURTHER ENCUMBRANCE OR DISPOSITION OF THE PROPERTY OR ANY PART THEREOF SECURING THIS NOTE, THEN MAKER SHALL BE OBLIGATED TO PAY, CONCURRENTLY WITH SUCH PREPAYMENT, THE PREPAYMENT PREMIUM PROVIDED FOR IN THIS NOTE OR, IN THE EVENT OF PREPAYMENT FOLLOWING ACCELERATION OF THE MATURITY DATE HEREOF WHEN THIS NOTE IS CLOSED TO PREPAYMENT, AS PROVIDED HEREIN AND IN THE MORTGAGE. MAKER HEREBY DECLARES THAT HOLDERS AGREEMENT TO MAKE THE LOAN AT THE INTEREST RATE AND FOR THE TERM SET FORTH IN THIS NOTE CONSTITUTES ADEQUATE CONSIDERATION, GIVEN INDIVIDUAL WEIGHT BY MAKER, FOR THIS WAIVER AND AGREEMENT.
[END OF TEXT]
IN WITNESS WHEREOF and intending to be legally bound, Maker has duly executed this Note as of the date first above written.

ARTICLE 4
MORTGAGORS AFFIRMATIVE COVENANTS
4.1 Payment of Note. Mortgagor shall pay all principal, interest and other sums payable under the Note or the other Loan Documents on the date when such payments are due, without notice or demand.
4.2 Performance of Other Obligations. Mortgagor shall promptly perform and comply with all other covenants, conditions and prohibitions required of Mortgagor by the terms of the Loan Documents.
4.3 Other Encumbrances. Mortgagor shall promptly perform and comply, in all material respects, with all covenants, conditions and prohibitions required of Mortgagor in connection with any Access Agreement and any other encumbrance affecting the Property, the Chattels or the Intangible Personalty, or any part thereof, or any interest therein, regardless of whether such other encumbrance is superior or subordinate to the lien hereof.
4.4 Payment of Taxes.
(a) Property Taxes . Unless Mortgagor is depositing money into escrow pursuant to Section 4.4(b) , Mortgagor shall (i) pay, before delinquency and before the imposition of any penalty or interest, all taxes and assessments, general or special, which may be levied or imposed at any time against Mortgagors interest and estate in the Property, the Chattels or the Intangible Personalty, and (ii) within ten (10) days after each payment of any such tax or assessment, Mortgagor will deliver to Mortgagee, without notice or demand, an official receipt for such payment. Unless Taxes are being paid by Mortgagee, Mortgagor shall provide Mortgagee with reasonably satisfactory evidence of the payment of all such taxes and assessments, general or special, which may be levied or imposed at any time against Mortgagors interest and estate in the Property, the Chattels or the Intangible Personalty within ten (10) days following any such payment.
(b) Deposit for Taxes . On the date hereof, Mortgagor shall deposit with Mortgagee an amount equal to 1/12th of the amount which Mortgagee estimates will be required to make the next annual payment of taxes, assessments and similar governmental charges referred to in this Section, multiplied by the number of whole or partial months that have elapsed since the date one month prior to the most recent due date for such taxes, assessments and similar governmental charges. Thereafter, with each monthly payment under the Note, Mortgagor shall deposit with Mortgagee an amount equal to 1/12th of the amount which Mortgagee estimates will be required to pay the next annual payment of taxes, assessments and similar governmental charges referred to in this Section. The purpose of these provisions is to provide Mortgagee with sufficient funds on hand to pay all such taxes, assessments and other governmental charges thirty (30) days before the date on which they become past due. If Mortgagee, in its sole discretion, determines that the funds escrowed hereunder are, or will be, insufficient, Mortgagor shall upon demand pay such additional sums as Mortgagee shall determine necessary and shall pay any increased monthly charges requested by Mortgagee. Provided no Event of Default exists hereunder, Mortgagee will apply the amounts so deposited to the payment of such taxes, assessments and other charges when due, but in no event will Mortgagee be liable for any interest on any amount so deposited, and any amount so deposited may be held and commingled with Mortgagees own funds.
(c) Intangible Taxes . If by reason of any statutory or constitutional amendment or judicial decision adopted or rendered after the date hereof, any tax, assessment or similar charge is imposed against the Note, Mortgagee, or any interest of Mortgagee in any real or personal property encumbered hereby, Mortgagor will pay such tax, assessment or other charge before delinquency and will indemnify Mortgagee against all loss, expense or diminution of income in connection therewith. In the event Mortgagor is unable to do so, either for economic reasons or because the legal provisions or decisions creating such tax, assessment or charge forbid Mortgagor from doing so, then the Note will, at Mortgagees option, become due and payable in full upon thirty (30) days notice to Mortgagor.
(d) Right to Contest . Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section, Mortgagor will not be deemed to be in default solely by reason of Mortgagors failure to pay any tax, assessment or similar governmental charge so long as, in Mortgagees judgment, each of the following conditions is satisfied:
(i) Mortgagor is engaged in and diligently pursuing in good faith administrative or judicial proceedings appropriate to contest the validity or amount of such tax, assessment or charge;
(ii) Mortgagors payment of such tax, assessment or charge would necessarily and materially prejudice Mortgagors prospects for success in such proceedings;
(iii) Nonpayment of such tax, assessment, or charge will not result in the loss or forfeiture of any property encumbered hereby or any interest of Mortgagee therein; and
(iv) Mortgagor deposits with Mortgagee, as security for such payment which may ultimately be required, a sum equal to the amount of the disputed tax, assessment or charge plus the interest, penalties, advertising charges and other costs which Mortgagee estimates are likely to become payable if Mortgagors contest is unsuccessful. For the avoidance of doubt, the funds required to be deposited with Mortgagee under this paragraph (iv) shall be in addition to all taxes, assessments and other governmental charges that are not being contested and that are subject to the deposit provisions of Section 4.4(b) hereof.
If Mortgagee determines that any one or more of such conditions is not satisfied or is no longer satisfied, Mortgagor will pay the tax, assessment or charge in question, together with any interest and penalties thereon, within ten (10) days after Mortgagee gives notice of such determination.
4.5 Maintenance of Insurance.
(a) Coverages Required . Mortgagor shall maintain or cause to be maintained, with financially sound and reputable insurance companies or associations satisfactory to Mortgagee, all insurance required under the terms of the Insurance Agreement, and shall comply with each and every covenant and agreement contained in such Insurance Agreement. Mortgagor shall provide Mortgagee with reasonably satisfactory evidence of the payment of the premiums of all such insurance within five (5) business days following the any such payment.
(b) Renewal Policies . Not less than thirty (30) days prior to the expiration date of each insurance policy required pursuant to the Insurance Agreement, Mortgagor will deliver to Mortgagee either an appropriate renewal policy (or a certified copy thereof), together with evidence satisfactory to Mortgagee that the applicable premium has been prepaid.
(c) Deposit for Premiums . If an Event of Default exists or if Mortgagor shall fail to provide Mortgagee with evidence of insurance as and when required under this Mortgage and the Insurance Agreement, Mortgagor shall deposit with Mortgagee an amount equal to 1/12th of the amount which Mortgagee estimates will be required to make the next annual payments of the premiums for the policies of insurance referred to in this Section, multiplied by the number of whole and partial months which have elapsed since the date one month prior to the most recent policy anniversary date for each such policy.
Thereafter, with each monthly payment under the Note, Mortgagor will deposit an amount equal to 1/12th of the amount which Mortgagee estimates will be required to pay the next required annual premium for each insurance policy referred to in this Section. The purpose of these provisions is to provide Mortgagee with sufficient funds on hand to pay all such premiums thirty (30) days before the date on which they become past due. If Mortgagee, in its sole discretion, determines that the funds escrowed hereunder are, or will be, insufficient, Mortgagor shall upon demand, pay such additional sums as Mortgagee shall determine as necessary and shall pay any increased monthly charges requested by Mortgagee. Provided no Event of Default exists hereunder, Mortgagee will apply the amounts so deposited to the payment of such insurance premiums when due, but in no event will Mortgagee be liable for any interest on any amounts so deposited, and the money so received may be held and commingled with Mortgagees own funds.
(d) Application of Hazard Insurance Proceeds . Mortgagor shall after learning thereof promptly notify Mortgagee of any damage or casualty to all or any portion of the Property or Chattels. Mortgagee may participate in all negotiations and appear and participate in all judicial or arbitration proceedings concerning any insurance proceeds which may be payable as a result of such casualty or damage, and may, in Mortgagees sole discretion, compromise or settle, in the names of both Mortgagor and Mortgagee, any claim for any such insurance proceeds; provided, however, that in any event any such compromise or settlement shall be subject to the prior consent of Mortgagee, which may be granted or withheld in Mortgagees discretion. Any such insurance proceeds shall be paid directly to Mortgagee and shall be applied first to reimburse Mortgagee for all out-of-pocket costs and expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys fees, actually incurred by Mortgagee in connection with the ascertainment and collection of such insurance proceeds. The balance, if any, of any insurance proceeds received by Mortgagee with respect to an insured damage or casualty shall, in Mortgagees sole discretion, either (i) be retained and applied by Mortgagee toward payment of the Secured Obligations, in such order and manner as Mortgagee deems appropriate, or (ii) be paid over, in whole or in part and subject to such conditions as Mortgagee may impose, to Mortgagor to pay for repairs or replacements necessitated by the damage or casualty; provided, however, that if all of the Secured Obligations have been performed or are discharged by the application of less than all of such insurance proceeds, then any remaining proceeds will be paid over to Mortgagor.
Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.5(d) , Mortgagee shall make any such insurance proceeds available to Mortgagor for restoration of the Property, provided, and on the following conditions: (A) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, (B) Mortgagor demonstrates to the reasonable satisfaction of Mortgagee that Mortgagor has the financial ability to pay all principal and interest required under the Note, and perform all of the other Secured Obligations, during the restoration of the Property from the proceeds of rent loss or business interruption insurance or otherwise, (C) the damage or casualty occurs prior to the last six (6) months of the term of the Loan and the restoration is capable of being completed prior to the stated maturity date of the Loan, (D) all insurance proceeds and other funds provided by Mortgagor for the restoration are released under escrow and construction funding arrangements reasonably satisfactory to Mortgagee, (E) the repair or restoration will return the Property to substantially the same size, design and utility as existed immediately prior to the damage or casualty, (F) in the event the proceeds of insurance are insufficient to pay by themselves for the restoration (as determined in good faith by Mortgagee), Mortgagor shall, prior to the commencement of any restoration work, deposit with Mortgagee within fifteen (15) days after the date on which the proceeds of insurance are received by Mortgagee such additional funds as in the good faith opinion of Mortgagee are necessary to complete the restoration; (G) Mortgagor undertakes and covenants and agrees (in writing) with Mortgagee to fund any and all deficiencies within fifteen (15) days after being notified in writing thereof and prior to the distribution of any further insurance proceeds, so that at all times the funds held by Mortgagee and remaining to be disbursed for purposes of the restoration shall be sufficient to complete the work; (H) the annual income from the Leases that are in existence as of the date hereof or executed in accordance with the provisions of this Mortgage and that will survive the restoration or repair of the Property produce a Debt Service Coverage Ratio of not less than 1.2 to 1.0, and Mortgagor demonstrates to Mortgagees reasonable satisfaction that Mortgagor will be able to attain Debt Service Coverage Ratio of at least 1.2 to 1.0 from Leases that are in existence as of the date hereof or executed in accordance with the provisions of this Mortgage within six (6) months after completion of the restoration; and (I) if any site plan amendment, variance, special use permit or other similar special approval or consent is required from any government authority or any other Person for such repair or restoration, Mortgagor shall obtain and deliver to Mortgagee such site plan amendment, variance, special use permit or other similar special approval or consent within one hundred eighty (180) days following such casualty or damage (but such one hundred eighty (180) day time period shall in all respects be subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.5(d) and shall not extend or otherwise modify any time periods in such foregoing provisions). Mortgagee may, prior to the application of insurance proceeds, commingle them with Mortgagees own funds and otherwise act with regard to such proceeds as Mortgagee may determine in Mortgagees sole discretion. If Mortgagee applies the insurance proceeds to the Secured Obligations due to the failure of the conditions under clause (H) of this Section 4.5(d) to be satisfied, then Mortgagor may, upon written notice delivered to Mortgagee within thirty (30) days following such application of the insurance proceeds to the Secured Obligations, elect to prepay the full principal amount of the Loan and all other amounts due under the Loan Documents, together with all accrued but unpaid interest thereon, and all other Secured Obligations, without any prepayment premium or penalty, such prepayment to be made within one-hundred eighty (180) days following such application of the insurance proceeds; provided, however, that Mortgagor continues to pay and fulfill all of Mortgagors obligations under this Note, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents up to and including the date of such full prepayment. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.5 , in the event the insurance proceeds are less than $250,000 and there does not exist any Default or Event of Default, then (i) Mortgagor may compromise or settle the claim for such proceeds, (ii) the proceeds shall be paid directly to Mortgagor and (iii) Mortgagor shall undertake and complete the repair or restoration of the Property so as to return the Property to substantially the same size, design and utility as existed immediately prior to the damage or casualty and shall fund any deficiency in the event such proceeds are insufficient to complete such repair or restoration.
(e) Successors Rights . Any person who acquires title to the Property or the Chattels upon foreclosure hereunder will succeed to Mortgagors rights under all policies of insurance maintained pursuant to this Section.
4.6 Maintenance and Repair of the Property and Chattels; Contracts. Mortgagor shall at all times maintain the Property and the Chattels in good condition and repair, will diligently prosecute the completion of any building or other improvement which is at any time in the process of construction on the Property, and will promptly repair, restore, replace, or rebuild any part of the Property or the Chattels which may be affected by any casualty or any public or private taking or injury to the Property or the Chattels. All costs and expenses arising out of the foregoing shall be paid by Mortgagor whether or not the proceeds of any insurance or eminent domain shall be sufficient therefor. Mortgagor shall maintain access to and egress from the Property by public streets. Subject to the provisions of Section 4.15(b) , Mortgagor will comply with (or cause compliance with) all statutes, ordinances, and other governmental or quasi-governmental requirements and private covenants relating to the ownership, construction, use, or operation of the Property, including but not limited to, any zoning requirements, any environmental or ecological requirements and any requirements regarding access for persons with disabilities. Mortgagee and any Person authorized by Mortgagee may upon prior notice to Mortgagor enter and inspect the Property at all reasonable times, and may inspect the Chattels, wherever located, at all reasonable times. Mortgagor shall take all actions necessary or required under the Leases to effect the provisions of the immediately preceding sentence. Mortgagor shall maintain all public utility services (including, without limitation, water supply, storm and sanitary sewer facilities, and natural gas, electric, telephone, cable television and high speed Internet access facilities) necessary for the operation of the Property (including, without limitation, improvements constituting part of the Property) for its intended purposes, and, without limiting such maintenance requirement, shall maintain such services at the boundaries of the land constituting part of the Property. Mortgagor shall comply (or cause compliance with) with all requirements of any insurance company or inspection or rating bureau in respect of the Property, including, without limitation, any requirements for the continuation of any insurance coverage or the continuation thereof at premium rates. Mortgagor shall timely pay and perform in all material respects each of its obligations under or in connection with the Contracts. Mortgagor shall not, without Mortgagees consent, enter into any Contract that has a term in excess of one hundred eighty (180) days unless such Contract is terminable by Mortgagor (without penalty) on thirty (30) days notice, except for any Contract disclosed in the Lease Certificate. Mortgagor and none of the Mortgagor Control Persons shall enter into any contract or agreement that contravenes any of the Loan Documents or which provides or has the effect that the performance of the Loan Documents constitutes a default under such contract or agreement or results in the creation of any lien, security interest, other charge or encumbrance upon or with respect to its properties. Mortgagor shall perform, observe and fulfill, in all material respects, and shall cause Guarantors to perform, observe and fulfill, in all material respects, all of the obligations, covenants and conditions set forth in any agreement or instrument to which Mortgagor or Guarantors, as the case may be, or any of the properties, assets or revenues of Mortgagor or Guarantors, as the case may be, are bound, if the failure to perform, observe or fulfill any such obligation, covenant or condition would materially and adversely affect the properties, assets, operations or condition (financial or otherwise) of Mortgagor or Guarantors, as the case may be, or the ability of any party to the Loan Documents to perform such partys obligations under the Loan Documents.
4.7 Leases. Mortgagor shall timely pay and perform each of its obligations under or in connection with the Leases, and shall otherwise pay such sums and take such action as shall be necessary or required in order to maintain each of the Leases in full force and effect in accordance with its terms.
Mortgagor shall within five (5) business days following receipt thereof, furnish to Mortgagee copies of any notices given to Mortgagor by the lessee under any Lease, alleging the default by Mortgagor in the timely payment or performance of its obligations under such Lease, or purporting to terminate or cancel any Lease prior to its stated expiration date, or requiring or demanding the expenditure of any sum by Mortgagor (or demanding the taking of any action by Mortgagor), and any subsequent communications related thereto. Mortgagor agrees that Mortgagee, in its sole discretion, five (5) days following notice to Mortgagor from Mortgagee and provided that Mortgagor fails to take action to perform its obligations under such Lease within the five (5) days following such notice to Mortgagor from Mortgagee, may advance any sum or take any action which Mortgagee reasonably believes is necessary or required to maintain the Leases in full force and effect, and all such sums advanced by Mortgagee, together with all costs and expenses incurred by Mortgagee in connection with action taken by Mortgagee pursuant to this Section, shall be due and payable by Mortgagor to Mortgagee upon demand, shall bear interest until paid at the Default Rate, and shall be secured by this Mortgage.

Mortgagee may participate in all negotiations and appear and participate in all judicial or arbitration proceedings concerning any award or payment which may be due as a result of such taking or damage, and may, in Mortgagees sole discretion, compromise or settle, in the names of both Mortgagor and Mortgagee, any claim for any such award or payment; provided, however, that in any event any such compromise or settlement shall be subject to the prior consent of Mortgagee, which may be granted or withheld in Mortgagees discretion. Any such award or payment shall be paid directly to Mortgagee and shall be applied first to reimburse Mortgagee for all costs and expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys fees, incurred by Mortgagee in connection with the ascertainment and collection of such award or payment. The balance, if any, of such award or payment received by Mortgagee with respect to a condemnation shall, in Mortgagees sole discretion, either (i) be retained and applied by Mortgagee toward payment of the Secured Obligations, in such order and manner as Mortgagee deems appropriate, or (ii) be paid over, in whole or in part and subject to such conditions as Mortgagee may impose, to Mortgagor for the purpose of restoring, repairing, or rebuilding any part of the Property affected by the taking or damage.
Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.8 , Mortgagee shall make any such award or payment available to Mortgagor for restoration of the Property, provided, and on the following conditions: (A) no Event of Default or monetary or material non-monetary Default shall have occurred and be continuing, (B) Mortgagor demonstrates to the reasonable satisfaction of Mortgagee that Mortgagor has the financial ability to pay all principal and interest required under the Note, and perform all of the other Secured Obligations, during the restoration of the Property from the proceeds of rent loss or business interruption insurance or otherwise, (C) the damage occurs prior to the last six (6) months of the term of the Loan and the restoration is capable of being completed prior to the stated maturity date of the Loan, (D) any condemnation award and other funds provided by Mortgagor for the restoration are released under escrow and construction funding arrangements reasonably satisfactory to Mortgagee, (E) the repair or restoration will return the Property to substantially the same size, design and utility as existed immediately prior to the damage, (F) in the event the condemnation award is insufficient to pay by itself for the restoration (as determined in good faith by Mortgagee), Mortgagor shall, prior to the commencement of any restoration work, deposit with Mortgagee within fifteen (15) days after the date on which the condemnation award is received by Mortgagee such additional funds as in the good faith opinion of Mortgagee are necessary to complete the restoration; (G) Mortgagor undertakes and covenants and agrees (in writing) with Mortgagee to fund any and all deficiencies within fifteen (15) days after being notified in writing thereof and prior to the distribution of any further portion of the condemnation award, so that at all times the funds held by Mortgagee and remaining to be disbursed for purposes of the restoration shall be sufficient to complete the work; (H) the annual income from the Leases that are in existence as of the date hereof or executed in accordance with the provisions of this Mortgage and that will survive the restoration or repair of the Property produce a Debt Service Coverage Ratio of not less than 1.2 to 1.0, and Mortgagor demonstrates to Mortgagees reasonable satisfaction that Mortgagor will be able to attain Debt Service Coverage Ratio of at least 1.2 to 1.0 from Leases that are in existence as of the date hereof or executed in accordance with the provisions of this Mortgage within six (6) months after completion of the restoration; and (I) if any site plan amendment, variance, special use permit or other similar special approval or consent is required from any government authority or any other Person for such repair or restoration, Mortgagor shall obtain and deliver to Mortgagee such site plan amendment, variance, special use permit or other similar special approval or consent within one hundred eighty (180) days following such taking or condemnation (but such one hundred eighty (180) day time period shall in all respects be subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.8 and shall not extend or otherwise modify any time periods in such foregoing provisions). Mortgagee may, prior to the application of any condemnation award, commingle it with Mortgagees own funds and otherwise act with regard to such award as Mortgagee may determine in Mortgagees sole discretion. If Mortgagee applies the condemnation award to the Secured Obligations due to the failure of the conditions under clause (H) of this Section 4.8 to be satisfied, then Mortgagor may, upon written notice delivered to Mortgagee within thirty (30) days following such application of the condemnation award to the Secured Obligations, elect to prepay the full principal amount of the Loan and all other amounts due under the Loan Documents, together with all accrued but unpaid interest thereon, and all other Secured Obligations, without any prepayment premium or penalty, such prepayment to be made within one-hundred eighty (180) days following such application of the condemnation award; provided, however, that Mortgagor continues to pay and fulfill all of Mortgagors obligations under this Note, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents up to and including the date of such full prepayment. If this Mortgage has been foreclosed prior to Mortgagees receipt of such award or payment, Mortgagee may nonetheless retain such award or payment to the extent required to reimburse Mortgagee for all costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys fees, incurred in connection therewith, and to discharge any deficiency remaining with respect to the Secured Obligations.
Mortgagee will have no obligation to see to the proper application of any proceeds paid over to Mortgagor, nor will any such proceeds received by Mortgagee bear interest or be subject to any other charge for the benefit of Mortgagor. If such proceeds are deposited with Mortgagee, Mortgagee may, prior to the application of such proceeds, commingle them with Mortgagees own funds and otherwise act with regard to such proceeds as Mortgagee may determine in Mortgagees sole discretion.
4.9 Mechanics Liens. Mortgagor will keep the Property free and clear of all liens and claims of liens by contractors, subcontractors, mechanics, laborers, materialmen, and other such persons, and will cause any recorded statement of any such lien to be released of record or bonded off within sixty (60) days after the recording thereof. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, however, Mortgagor will not be deemed to be in default under this Section if and so long as Mortgagor (a) contests in good faith the validity or amount of any asserted lien and diligently prosecutes or defends an action appropriate to obtain a binding determination of the disputed matter, (b) provides Mortgagee with such security as Mortgagee may reasonably require to protect Mortgagee against all loss, damage and expense, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys fees, which Mortgagee might incur if the asserted lien is determined to be valid (which security may, at the option of Mortgagor, be in the form of a bond over such lien, provided that such bond either removes any such lien of record or prevents the filing of any such lien of record).
4.10 Defense of Actions . Mortgagor will defend, at Mortgagors expense, any action, proceeding or claim which affects any property encumbered hereby or any interest of Mortgagee in such property or in the Secured Obligations, and Mortgagor will indemnify and hold Mortgagee harmless from all loss, damage, cost, or expense, including attorneys fees, which Mortgagee may incur in connection therewith.
4.11 Expenses of Enforcement . Mortgagor will pay all costs and expenses, which Mortgagee may incur in connection with any effort or action (whether or not litigation or foreclosure is involved) to enforce or defend Mortgagees rights and remedies under any of the Loan Documents, including, but not limited to, all attorneys fees, appraisal fees, consultants fees, and other expenses incurred by Mortgagee in securing title to or possession of, and realizing upon, any security for the Secured Obligations. All such costs and expenses (together with interest thereon at the Default Rate from the date incurred) shall constitute part of the Secured Obligations, and may be included in the computation of the amount owed to Mortgagee for purposes of foreclosing or otherwise enforcing this Mortgage.
4.12 Financial Reports. Mortgagor shall furnish to Mortgagee (a) within ninety (90) days following the end of each fiscal year of Mortgagor, Mortgagors quarterly and annual operating statements for the Property as of the end of and for the preceding quarter and fiscal year, as applicable, in each case prepared against the budget for such fiscal year, as may be applicable, (b) contemporaneously with the delivery of each of such operating statements of the Property, a rent roll certified, signed and dated by Mortgagor detailing the names of all tenants under the Leases, the portion of the improvements on the Property occupied by each tenant, the rent and any other charges payable under each Lease and the term of each Lease, (c) the annual balance sheet and profit and loss statement of Mortgagor and an annual balance sheet of each Guarantor and (d) the federal and state tax returns of each Guarantor not later than the date that is ten (10) days following the date that such federal and state tax returns are filed. The financial statements and reports described in (a) and (c) above shall be in such form and in such detail as Mortgagee may require, shall be prepared on a tax basis (with respect to Mortgagor only) and shall be certified as true and correct by Mortgagor or each Guarantor, as may be applicable (or if required by Mortgagee, after the occurrence of an Event of Default, by an independent certified public accountant acceptable to Mortgagee). Mortgagor shall file and pay its annual tax returns and taxes in a timely manner.
Mortgagor shall also furnish or cause to be furnished to Mortgagee within forty-five (45) after Mortgagees request, any other financial reports or statements of Mortgagor, including, without limitation, balance sheets, profit and loss statements, tax returns (within fifteen (15) days after filing with the applicable governmental authority), other financial statements, and certified rent rolls, required under any of the Loan Documents, requested by any regulatory or governmental authority exercising jurisdiction over Mortgagee, certified as true and correct by Mortgagor. Following the occurrence of any Event of Default, Mortgagor shall deliver to Mortgagee the items required in (a) and (b) above on a monthly basis. Mortgagors financial statements will be prepared by Shapiro, Goldstein and Moses or Kimmel Blau or a reasonable comparable firm selected by Mortgagor, and reasonably approved by Mortgagee.
4.13 Priority of Leases. To the extent Mortgagor has the right, under the terms of any Lease, to make such Lease subordinate to the lien hereof, Mortgagor will, at Mortgagees request and Mortgagors expense, take such action as may be reasonably required to effect such subordination. Conversely, Mortgagor will, at Mortgagees request and Mortgagors expense, take such action as may be necessary to subordinate the lien hereof to any future Lease designated by Mortgagee. The standard form of Lease used by Mortgagor shall provide that the Lease is subject and subordinate to the Mortgage and all future mortgages affecting the Property. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, however, Mortgagee shall provide an SNDA, in Mortgagees standard form, for each Lease that does not require Mortgagees approval under this Mortgage or that has been approved by Mortgagee; provided, however, that if any tenant under any such Lease requests a different form of such an agreement or modifications to Mortgagees standard form of such agreement, then Mortgagee shall use commercially reasonable efforts to negotiate a form of such an agreement that is mutually acceptable to Mortgagee and such tenant. In no event, however, shall Mortgagee be required to enter into a form of such agreement that is not commercially reasonably acceptable to Mortgagee.
4.14 Inventories; Assembly of Chattels. Mortgagor shall, from time to time at request of Mortgagee, deliver to Mortgagee a current inventory of the Chattels and the Intangible Personalty, in such detail as Mortgagee may require. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default hereunder, Mortgagor will at Mortgagees request assemble the Chattels and make them available to Mortgagee at any place designated by Mortgagee which is reasonably convenient to both parties.
4.15 Compliance with Laws, Existence, Etc. (a) Mortgagor shall comply in all material respects with all applicable laws, rules, regulations and orders and other governmental or quasi-governmental requirements and private covenants, such compliance to include, without limitation, maintaining all Permits and paying before the same become delinquent all taxes, assessments and governmental charges imposed upon Mortgagor or the Property. Mortgagor shall maintain all Permits necessary or desirable for the operation, ownership, use, development, occupancy and maintenance of the Property for its current use, and without limiting this covenant of Mortgagor, Mortgagor shall make application for renewals of any of the Permits prior to the expiration thereof. Mortgagor shall, promptly after receiving notice thereof, notify Mortgagee of any litigation, action, proceeding or investigation against Mortgagor or any Mortgagor Control Person or the Property before any court, governmental or quasi-governmental arbitrator or other authority and, upon reasonable request of Mortgagee, from time to time provide Mortgagee with status or other information in respect thereof.
Mortgagor and each Mortgagor Control Person shall do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve, renew and keep in full force and effect its existence as a limited liability company, corporation or other entity, as may be applicable, and to maintain its authorization to perform the obligations under the Loan Documents. Neither Mortgagor nor any Mortgagor Control Person shall amend or modify its organizational documents so as to contravene any of the Loan Documents or to prevent the observance of the obligations under the Loan Documents. Mortgagor and each Mortgagor Control Person shall comply in material respects with all applicable laws, rules, regulations and orders and other governmental or quasi-governmental requirements, and shall obtain all authorizations, approvals and consents from, and shall make all notices and filings with, any court, governmental, authority or regulatory body, in respect of its right and ability to perform, or cause the performance of, the obligations under the Loan Documents. Mortgagor shall maintain its status as non-foreign person within the meaning of Sections 1445 and 7701 of the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the regulations issued thereunder.
(b) Right to Contest . Notwithstanding any other provision of this Mortgage, Mortgagor will not be deemed to be in default solely by reason of Mortgagors failure to comply with any applicable law, rule, regulation or order so long as, in Mortgagees judgment, each of the following conditions is satisfied:
(i) Mortgagor is engaged in and diligently pursuing in good faith administrative or judicial proceedings appropriate to contest the validity or applicability of such law, rule, regulation or order; and
(ii) Noncompliance with any such law, rule, regulation or order will not result in the loss or forfeiture of any property encumbered hereby or any interest of Mortgagee therein or result in any fines or other punitive actions or any loss or impairment of insurance coverage; and
(iii) Mortgagor deposits with Mortgagee, as security for any payment or performance which may ultimately be required, a sum equal to the amount of any fine, assessment or charge plus the interest, penalties, and other costs which Mortgagee reasonably estimates are likely to become payable if Mortgagors contest is unsuccessful.
If Mortgagee determines that any one or more of such conditions is not satisfied or is no longer satisfied, then Mortgagor shall comply with the law, rule, regulation or order in question, within thirty (30) days after Mortgagee gives notice of such determination.
4.16 Records and Books of Account. Mortgagor shall keep accurate and complete records and books of account, in which complete entries will be made, reflecting all financial transactions relating to the Property.
4.17 Inspection Rights. At any reasonable time, and from time to time, upon not less than 24 hours prior notice from Mortgagee, Mortgagor shall permit Mortgagee, or any agents or representatives thereof, to examine and make copies of and abstracts from the records and books of account of, and visit and inspect the Property and to discuss with Mortgagor the affairs, finances and accounts of Mortgagor. Mortgagor shall take all actions necessary or required under the Leases to effect such right of Mortgagee to inspect the Property.
4.18 Change of Executive Offices. Mortgagor shall promptly notify Mortgagee if changes are made in the location of Mortgagors primary executive offices.
4.19 Further Assurances; Estoppel Certificates. Mortgagor will execute and deliver to Mortgagee within ten (10) days after any request by Mortgagee, and pay the costs of preparation and recording thereof, any further documents which Mortgagee may reasonably request to confirm or perfect the liens and security interests created or intended to be created hereby, or to confirm or perfect any evidence of the Secured Obligations. Mortgagor will also, within ten (10) days after any request by Mortgagee, deliver to Mortgagee a signed and acknowledged statement certifying to Mortgagee, or to any proposed transferee of the Secured Obligations, (a) the balance of principal, interest, and other sums then outstanding under the Note and the other Loan Documents and (b) whether Mortgagor claims to have any offsets or defenses with respect to the Secured Obligations and, if so, the nature of such offsets or defenses.
4.20 Costs of Closing. Mortgagor shall on demand pay directly or reimburse Mortgagee for any costs or expenses reasonably incurred in connection with the closing of the Loan, including, but not limited to, fees of counsel for Mortgagee and costs and expenses for which invoices were not available at the closing of such loan, or costs and expenses which are incurred by Mortgagee after such closing. All such costs and expenses (together with interest thereon at the Default Rate from the date of demand by Mortgagee) shall constitute a part of the Secured Obligations, and may be included in the computation of the amount owed to Mortgagee for purposes of foreclosing or otherwise enforcing this Mortgage.
4.21 Fund for Electronic Transfer. All monthly payments of principal and interest on the Note, escrow deposits and other amounts due under this Mortgage or the other Loan Documents shall be made by Mortgagor by electronic funds transfer from a bank account established and maintained by Mortgagor for such purpose. Mortgagor shall establish and maintain such account until the Secured Obligations are fully paid and shall direct the depository of such account in writing to so transmit such payments on or before the respective due dates to the account of Mortgagee as shall be designated by Mortgagee in writing.
4.22 Use. Mortgagor shall use the Property solely for the operation of a warehouse and industrial office building and any other use consistent therewith and not otherwise in violation of any applicable laws and for no other use or purpose.
4.23 Management. The Property shall be managed by Mortgagor or any Property Manager (as defined below). The Property shall not be managed by any Person other than Mortgagor, except under a management agreement delivered to, and approved by, Mortgagee (the Management Agreement ) and with a property manager consented to by Mortgagee (the Property Manager ). Any substitute or replacement Property Manager or any other change in Property Manager shall be subject to the prior written consent of Mortgagee in its sole discretion. Mortgagor shall not permit any amendment to or modification of any Management Agreement, or management of the Property by any Person other than Mortgagor or Property Manager, without the prior written consent of Mortgagee. Any such Property Manager shall execute a Subordination Agreement in respect of its Management Agreement in form and substance satisfactory to Mortgagee.
4.24 Cash Management Lockbox.
(a) At or prior to the closing of the Loan, Mortgagee and Mortgagor shall enter into the Cash Management Agreement, pursuant to which Mortgagor and Mortgagee shall establish a lockbox account ( Lockbox Account ) into which all proceeds and revenues from the Property will be deposited, and a cash collateral account ( Cash Collateral Account ), into which such proceeds and revenues may be swept pursuant to Section 4.24(f) below, at a bank (the Lockbox Bank ) selected by Mortgagee, but reasonably acceptable to Mortgagor.
(b) Mortgagor shall, or shall cause each tenant at the Property and all other persons and/or entities that make payments in respect of the Property to, remit all amounts due with respect to the Property directly to a lockbox maintained by the Lockbox Bank or to wire such amounts directly into the Lockbox Account. Mortgagor and the Property Manager shall promptly deposit into the Lockbox Account any checks or payments they receive from time to time, notwithstanding such instructions to the tenants and such other person and/or entities, and Mortgagor and Property Manager shall hold any such checks or payments in trust for the benefit of Mortgagee until such checks or amounts are deposited into the Lockbox Account.
(c) The Lockbox Bank and the Servicer retained by Mortgagee to service the Loan shall be authorized and empowered to endorse any and all checks from tenants solely for deposit into the Lockbox Account.
(d) The Lockbox Account and the Cash Collateral Account shall be in the name of Mortgagee or Servicer, as secured party (or agent for secured party), and shall be under the sole dominion and control of Mortgagee. Mortgagor shall grant Mortgagee a first priority security interest in the Lockbox Account and Cash Collateral Account and shall take all actions requested by Mortgagee to perfect such security interest.
(e) Amounts on deposit in the Lockbox Account shall be swept daily into an operating account (the Operating Account ) maintained by Mortgagor unless and until Servicer receives notice from Mortgagee that a Triggering Event (as defined below) has occurred, in which event the cash flow sweep described in Section 4.24(f) below shall apply.
(f) Upon the occurrence of any Triggering Event, Mortgagee, at its option, may cause Servicer to daily sweep 100% of all proceeds and revenues from the Property in the Lockbox Account into the Cash Collateral Account, and Mortgagee shall apply the same, to principal, interest and/or any other amounts due Mortgagee under the Loan Documents and to the costs and expenses of the operation and maintenance of the Property in such order as Mortgagee shall elect. Each of the following shall constitute a Triggering Event : (i) a Default under, and as defined in, the Loan Documents; (ii) an Event of Default under, and as defined in, the Loan Documents; or (iii) the Trigger Event Debt Service Coverage Ratio shall be less than 1.20 to 1.00.
(g) With respect to the first two (2) Triggering Events only, following the cure of any Default or Event of Default (that is accepted by Mortgagee in its sole discretion) with respect to which Mortgagee has notified Servicer that a Triggering Event has occurred or provided that the Property and the Additional Properties have achieved a Trigger Event Debt Service Coverage Ratio of at least 1.20 to 1.00, for two (2) consecutive quarters, as applicable, and after Mortgagee has applied all proceeds and revenues as described above, Mortgagee will release all excess amounts remaining in the Cash Collateral Account to Mortgagor, and Servicer will resume sweeping proceeds from the Lockbox Account into the Operating Account as provided in Section 4.24(e) above.
For the avoidance of doubt, Mortgagor shall have no right to cure a Triggering Event following the second Triggering Event and any subsequent Triggering Event shall continue until such time as all principal, interest and all other amounts due and payable to Mortgagee under this Mortgage and the other Loan Documents have been paid or repaid in full, as applicable.
4.25 Single Purpose Entity. Mortgagor shall at all times be a Single Purpose Entity.
4.26 General Indemnity. Mortgagor agrees that while Mortgagee has no liability to any Person in tort or otherwise as lender and that while Mortgagee is not an owner or operator of the Property, Mortgagor shall, at its sole cost and expense, protect, defend, release, indemnify and hold harmless the Indemnified Parties (defined below) from any Losses (defined below) imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against the Indemnified Parties, directly or indirectly, arising out of or in connection with the Secured Obligations, the Property (or any portion thereof), the Loan, or the Loan Documents, any and all claims for brokerage, leasing, finders or similar fees that may be made relating to the Property and the Secured Obligations, or the exercise by Mortgagee of any rights or remedies granted to Mortgagee pursuant to this Mortgage, the other Loan Documents or applicable law; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not apply (a) to any Losses caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Indemnified Parties or (b) to any disputes among the Indemnified Parties not caused in whole or in part by a breach of Mortgagors obligations under the Loan Documents. The term Losses shall mean any claims, suits, liabilities (including strict liabilities), actions, proceedings, obligations, debts, damages, losses (including, without limitation, unrealized loss of value of the Property), costs, expenses, fines, penalties, charges, fees, judgments, awards, and amounts paid in settlement of whatever kind including reasonable attorneys fees and all other costs of defense. The term Indemnified Parties shall mean (a) Mortgagee, (b) any prior owner or holder of the Note, (c) any existing or prior servicer of the Loan, (d) the officers, directors, shareholders, partners, members, employees and trustees of any of the foregoing, and (e) the heirs, legal representatives, successors and assigns of each of the foregoing. THE FOREGOING INDEMNITIES SHALL APPLY TO EACH INDEMNIFIED PARTY WITH RESPECT TO LOSSES THAT IN WHOLE OR IN PART ARE CAUSED BY OR ARISE OUT OF THE NEGLIGENCE OF SUCH (AND/OR ANY OTHER) INDEMNIFIED PARTY OR ANY STRICT LIABILITY.

A Safe-Harbor Lease shall mean any proposed market Lease that meets the following criteria: (A) the base rent payable under such proposed Lease is not less than the base rent being paid being paid by the tenant occupying the space as of the date of this Mortgage; (B) the rentable area to be demised pursuant to such proposed Lease which, when combined with any other space in the Property leased to affiliated entities of the tenant under such proposed Lease, is less than 10,000 square feet, (C) such proposed Lease shall be for a term of no less than three (3) years and no greater than ten (10) years including any tenants extension options, and (D) such proposed Lease shall satisfy the additional leasing guidelines set forth below:
(i) A Lease will qualify as a Safe-Harbor Lease when such Lease comes into effect, provided each of the following conditions, in addition to the conditions set forth above, are satisfied: (a) such Lease does not contain any options to purchase, or other rights to acquire, the Property or any portion thereof or interest therein, (b) such Lease does not contain any material restrictions on Mortgagors rights to lease the remaining portions of the Property not covered by such Lease, (c) such Lease does not contain any extraordinary, uncustomary and unduly burdensome landlord obligations (including obligations which an unaffiliated landlord would have difficulty performing), (d) such Lease is entered into on the standard form of Lease approved by Mortgagee, without material modification thereto and provided it conforms with the leasing guidelines and Lease provisions hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, (e) such Lease is entered into on arms-length terms and (f) not later than the date that is ten (10) days following the execution of such Lease or a modification or amendment of a Safe-Harbor Lease, Mortgagor shall provide Mortgagee with a certified copy of such Lease or such modification or amendment, together with (i) all other items required to be submitted with any Lease pursuant to Section 5.3(b) , and (ii) a certificate certifying that the Lease (or, if applicable, such Lease together with such modification or amendment) is a Safe Harbor Lease as defined in this Mortgage and that the Lease (or, if applicable, such Lease together with such modification or amendment) satisfies in all material respects the requirements set forth herein to be a Safe Harbor Lease.
(ii) For the avoidance of doubt, Mortgagor may (without the prior written consent of Mortgagee) enter into any modification or amendment of any Safe Harbor Leases so long as such Safe Harbor Lease shall remain a Safe Harbor Lease following such modification or amendment.
(iii) Mortgagee agrees that for any proposed Lease that does not qualify as a Safe Harbor Lease, for which Mortgagor is required to obtain Mortgagees consent thereto, Mortgagee will attempt to respond within ten (10) business days, and Mortgagees consent shall not be unreasonably withheld based upon market conditions. Mortgagor shall be permitted to submit a Lease summary term sheet, for purposes of obtaining Mortgagees approval, which sets out all of the economic terms of the proposed lease, as well as any deviations from Mortgagee approved standard form of lease. Mortgagees consent will be contingent on tenant signing the Mortgagee-approved standard form of lease. Mortgagee will not be obligated to enter into an SNDA for any tenant for which Mortgagor is requesting Mortgagee lease approval until such time as an executed Lease that complies with the provisions of this Mortgage is delivered to Mortgagee.
If Mortgagee has failed to respond to the written request for consent of a proposed Lease after five (5) business days after its receipt thereof, together with any additional information that Mortgagee may reasonably require to evaluate such proposed Lease, and Mortgagor has provided a subsequent five (5) business days written notice to Mortgagee requesting consent, each notice marked with a legend in bold capital letters stating: MORTGAGEE SHALL BE DEEMED TO HAVE CONSENTED TO THE MATTER CONTAINED HEREIN IF IT FAILS TO RESPOND TO THIS REQUEST FOR CONSENT WITHIN 10/5 (as applicable) BUSINESS DAYS AFTER THE DATE HEREOF, then Mortgagee shall be deemed to have consented to the same.
(e) Mortgagor shall provide Mortgagee with a certified rent roll, on an annual basis, certifying to Mortgagee the following items: (a) name of tenant, (b) date of Lease, (c) rentable square footage, (d) space or unit number, (e) commencement and expiration dates, (f) commencement date of rental payments, (g) monthly base rent, (h) rent abatements (if any), (i) rent escalations, (j) all other rent items (including reimbursable expenses), (k) percentage rent breakpoint (if any), (1) expense stop (if applicable), (m) deposits, (n) guarantor (if any), (o) date of guaranty (if any), (p) options to purchase, extend, expand, renew and/or terminate, (q) operating covenant Go Dark rights, (r) co-tenancy clause and (s) any unextinguished tenant concessions.

(ii) There is no Event of Default at the time of such transfer;
(iii) If a change in the Property Manager for the Property (not a change in the manager or managing member of Mortgagor) will result from such transfer, Mortgagor shall enter into a Management Agreement with a Property Manager that has reasonably satisfactory experience operating and leasing property similar to the Property and that has a term no greater than one (1) year, may be cancelled on 30-days written notice (without cause and without any cancellation fee or charge), and which provides that the Property Manager shall subordinate its fees to the payment of the Loan, and otherwise complies with the terms of the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, Section 4.23 hereof);
(iv) Such Principal shall transfer an equal percentage of such Principals ownership interest in each of the other Borrowers such that each of the Principals percentage ownership interests of each of the Borrowers (including, without limitation, Mortgagor) shall be identical in respect of each other Borrower (including, without limitation, Mortgagor) both prior to and following any such transfer;

(vi) Mortgagor shall provide Mortgagee with reasonable evidence that such transfer shall not affect or impair Mortgagees security and rights under the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, the Additional Loan Documents), or other guaranty or undertaking relating to the Secured Obligations, including without limitation, the Guaranty Agreement and the Environmental Indemnity Agreement;
(vii) Paul Cooper, Jeffrey Ravetz and Louis Sheinker, if living, shall remain Guarantors, subject to the provisions of Section 4.32 , and if pursuant to Section 4.32 , any one or more of such Guarantors has been replaced, such replacement Guarantor shall remain a Guarantor subject to the provisions of Section 4.32 ; and
(viii) Mortgagor shall pay for all of Mortgagees costs and expenses associated with such transfer, including without limitation, attorneys fees charged by Mortgagees staff counsel or special counsel, whether or not such transfer is consummated.

Mortgagor shall indemnify, protect, defend, and hold Mortgagee harmless from and against any and all losses, liabilities, damages, claims, judgments, costs, and expenses (including, without limitation attorneys fees and costs incurred in the investigation, defense, and settlement of claims and in obtaining any individual ERISA exemption or state administrative exception that may be required, in Mortgagees sole and absolute discretion) that Mortgagee may incur, directly or indirectly, as the result of the breach by Mortgagor of any warranty or representation set forth in Section 3.3(bb) hereof or the breach by Mortgagor of any covenant contained in this Section.

7.1 Performance of Defaulted Obligations. Mortgagee may make any payment or perform any other obligation under the Loan Documents which either Mortgagor or any Guarantor has failed to make or perform, and Mortgagor hereby irrevocably appoints Mortgagee as the true and lawful attorney-in-fact for Mortgagor to make any such payment and perform any such obligation in the name of Mortgagor. All payments made and expenses (including attorneys fees) incurred by Mortgagee in this connection, together with interest thereon at the Default Rate from the date paid or incurred until repaid, will be part of the Secured Obligations and will be immediately due and payable by Mortgagor to Mortgagee. In lieu of advancing Mortgagees own funds for such purposes, Mortgagee may use any funds of Mortgagor which may be in Mortgagees possession, including, but not limited to, insurance or condemnation proceeds and amounts deposited for taxes, insurance premiums or other purposes.
7.2 Specific Performance and Injunctive Relief. Notwithstanding the availability of legal remedies, Mortgagee will be entitled to obtain specific performance, mandatory or prohibitory injunctive relief, or other equitable relief requiring Mortgagor or Guarantors to cure or refrain from repeating any Default.
7.3 Acceleration of Secured Obligations. Mortgagee may, without notice or demand, declare all of the Secured Obligations immediately due and payable in full.

7.5 Possession of the Property. To the extent permitted by law, Mortgagee may enter and take possession of the Property without seeking or obtaining the appointment of a receiver, may employ a managing agent for the Property, and may lease or rent all or any part of the Property, either in Mortgagees name or in the name of Mortgagor, and may collect the rents, issues, and profits of the Property. Any revenues collected by Mortgagee under this Section will be applied first toward payment of all expenses (including attorneys fees) incurred by Mortgagee, together with interest thereon at the Default Rate from the date incurred until repaid, and the balance, if any, will be applied against the Secured Obligations in such order and manner as Mortgagee may elect in its sole discretion.
7.6 Enforcement of Security Interests. Mortgagee may exercise all rights of a secured party under the Code with respect to the Chattels and the Intangible Personalty, including but not limited to taking possession of, holding, and selling the Chattels and enforcing or otherwise realizing upon any accounts and general intangibles. Any requirement for reasonable notice of the time and place of any public sale, or of the time after which any private sale or other disposition is to be made, will be satisfied by Mortgagees giving of such notice to Mortgagor at least five (5) days prior to the time of any public sale or the time after which any private sale or other intended disposition is to be made.

(iii) sell the Property or any part thereof and all estate, claim, demand, right, title and interest of Mortgagor therein, pursuant to power of sale or otherwise, at one or more sales, in whole or in parcels, at such time and place, upon such terms and after such notice thereof as may be required or permitted by law, and in the event of a sale, by foreclosure or otherwise, of less than all of the Property, this Mortgage shall continue as a lien on the remaining portion of the Property.
Any real estate sold pursuant to any writ of execution issued on a judgment obtained by virtue of the Note or this Mortgage, may be sold in one parcel, as an entirety, or in such parcels, and in such manner or order as Mortgagee, in its sole discretion may elect.

Any such sale or sales made under or by virtue of this Section 7.7 , whether made under the power of sale herein granted or under or by virtue of judicial proceedings or of a judgment or decree of foreclosure and sale, shall operate to divest all the estate, right, title, interest, claim and demand whatsoever, whether at law or in equity, of Mortgagor in and to the properties and rights so sold, and shall be a perpetual bar both at law and in equity against Mortgagor and against any and all persons or entities claiming or who may claim the same, or any part thereof, either from, through or under Mortgagor.
(f) Upon sale made under or by virtue of this Section 7.7 (whether made under the power of sale herein granted or under or by virtue of judicial proceedings or of a judgment or decree of foreclosure and sale), Mortgagee may bid for and acquire the Property or any part thereof and in lieu of paying cash therefor may take settlement for the purchase price by crediting upon the Secured Obligations the net sale price after deducting therefrom the expenses of the sale and the costs of the action and any other sums which Mortgagee is authorized to deduct under this Mortgage.
(g) Subject to the provisions of Section 18 of the Note and Section 9.21 of this Mortgage, the obligation of this Mortgage and of the Note shall continue until the Secured Obligations are paid in full notwithstanding any action or actions or partial foreclosure which may be brought to recover any amount or amounts for installments of principal, interest, taxes, assessments, water and sewer charges, rents and rates or insurance or other sums or charges due and payable under the provisions of this Mortgage.
(h) No recovery of any judgment by Mortgagee and no levy of an execution under any judgment upon the Property or upon any other property of Mortgagor shall affect in any manner or to any extent, the lien of this Mortgage upon the Property or any part thereof, or any liens, rights, powers or remedies of Mortgagee hereunder, but such liens, rights, powers and remedies of Mortgagee shall continue unimpaired as before, and notwithstanding any statutory rate of interest applicable with respect to judgments, after the entering of execution of any judgment, the Secured Obligations shall bear interest at the Default Rate until the Secured Obligations shall have been paid in full.
(i) In the event of a foreclosure of this Mortgage or the succession by Mortgagee to the interests of Mortgagor hereunder, the purchaser of the Property or such successor shall succeed to all rights of Mortgagor, including any right to proceeds of insurance and to unearned premiums, and in and to all policies or certificates of insurance assigned and delivered to Mortgagee pursuant to this Mortgage.
(j) Any assignee of this Mortgage and the Note shall take the same free and clear of all offsets, counterclaims and defenses of any nature (except for payments actually made) whatsoever which Mortgagor may have against any assignor of this Mortgage and the Note and no such offset, counterclaim or defense (except for payments actually made) shall be interposed or asserted by Mortgagor in any action or proceeding brought by any such assignee upon this Mortgage and/or the Note and any such right to interpose or assert any such offset, counterclaim or defense in any such action or proceeding is hereby expressly waived by Mortgagor.
(k) In any action or proceeding to foreclose this Mortgage, or to recover or collect the Secured Obligations, the provisions of law respecting the recovery of costs, disbursements and allowances shall also be applicable.
(1) Nothing in this Section dealing with foreclosure procedures or specifying particular actions to be taken by Mortgagee shall be deemed to contradict or add to the requirements and procedures now or hereafter specified by Connecticut law, and any such inconsistency shall be resolved in favor of Connecticut law applicable at the time of foreclosure.
7.8 Appointment of Receiver. To the extent permitted by law, Mortgagee shall be entitled, as a matter of absolute right and without regard to the value of any security for the Secured Obligations or the solvency of any person liable therefor, to the appointment of a receiver for the Property upon ex-parte application to any court of competent jurisdiction. Mortgagor waives any right to any hearing or notice of hearing prior to the appointment of a receiver. Such receiver and its agents shall be empowered, but shall not be obligated, to (a) take possession of the Property and any businesses conducted by Mortgagor or any other person thereon and any business assets used in connection therewith, (b) exclude Mortgagor and Mortgagors agents, servants, and employees from the Property, (c) collect the rents, issues, profits, and income therefrom, (d) complete any construction which may be in progress, (e) do such maintenance and make such repairs and alterations as the receiver deems necessary, (f) use all stores of materials, supplies, and maintenance equipment on the Property and replace such items at the expense of the receivership estate, (g) pay all taxes and assessments against the Property and the Chattels, all premiums for insurance thereon, all utility and other operating expenses, and all sums due under any prior or subsequent encumbrance, and (h) generally do anything which Mortgagor could legally do if Mortgagor were in possession of the Property.
All expenses incurred by the receiver or its agents shall constitute a part of the Secured Obligations. Any revenues collected by the receiver shall be applied first to the expenses of the receivership, including attorneys fees incurred by the receiver and by Mortgagee, together with interest thereon at the Default Rate from the date incurred until repaid, and the balance shall be applied toward the Secured Obligations in such order or manner as Mortgagee may in its sole discretion elect or in such other manner as the court may direct. Unless sooner terminated with the express consent of Mortgagee, any such receivership will continue until the Secured Obligations have been discharged in full, or until title to the Property has passed after foreclosure sale and all applicable periods of redemption have expired.
7.9 Right to Make Repairs, Improvements. Should any part of the Property come into the possession of Mortgagee, after an Event of Default, Mortgagee may, but shall not be obligated, to use, operate, and/or make repairs, alterations, additions and improvements to the Property for the purpose of preserving it or its value. Mortgagor covenants to promptly reimburse and pay to Mortgagee, at the place where the Note is payable, or at such other place as may be designated by Mortgagee in writing, the amount of all reasonable expenses (including the cost of any insurance, taxes, or other charges) incurred by Mortgagee in connection with its custody, preservation, use or operation of the Property, together with interest thereon from the date incurred by Mortgagee at the Default Rate, and all such expenses, costs, taxes, interest, and other charges shall be a part of the Secured Obligations. It is agreed, however, except to the extent arising out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Mortgagee or its agents, that the risk of accidental loss or damage to the Property is undertaken by Mortgagor and Mortgagee shall have no liability whatsoever for decline in value of the Property, for failure to obtain or maintain insurance, or for failure to determine whether any insurance ever in force is adequate as to amount or as to the risks insured.
7.10 Surrender of Insurance. Mortgagee may surrender the insurance policies maintained pursuant to the terms hereof, or any part thereof, and receive and apply the unearned premiums as a credit on the Secured Obligations and, in connection therewith, Mortgagor hereby appoints Mortgagee (or any officer of Mortgagee), as the true and lawful agent and attorney-in-fact for Mortgagor (with full powers of substitution), which power of attorney shall be deemed to be a power coupled with an interest and therefore irrevocable, to collect such premiums.
7.11 Prima Facie Evidence. Mortgagor agrees that, in any assignments, deeds, bills of sale, notices of sale, or postings, given by Mortgagee, any and all statements of fact or other recitals therein made as to the identity of Mortgagee, or as to the occurrence or existence of any Event of Default, or as to the acceleration of the maturity of the Secured Obligations, or as to the request to sell, posting of notice of sale, notice of sale, time, place, terms and manner of sale and receipt, distribution and application of the money realized therefrom, and without being limited by the foregoing, as to any other act or thing having been duly done by Mortgagee, shall be taken by all courts of law and equity as prima facie evidence that such statements or recitals state facts and are without further question to be so accepted, and Mortgagor does hereby ratify and confirm any and all acts that Mortgagee may lawfully do by virtue hereof.
7.12 Rights to Funds Held Pursuant to the Reserve Agreements. Mortgagee may, in accordance with the Reserve Agreements, apply all or any portion of the funds by Mortgagee or its Servicer pursuant to the Reserve Agreements, or any other reserve or escrow account, to any and all of the Secured Obligations in such order of priority as Mortgagee shall elect in its sole and absolute discretion.
7.13 Remedies Under Other Loan Documents. Mortgagee may exercise any right or remedy provided for in any of the other Loan Documents, including, without limitation, the Additional Loan Documents.
ARTICLE 8
ASSIGNMENT OF LEASES AND RENTS
8.1 Assignment of Leases and Rents. Mortgagor hereby unconditionally and absolutely grants, transfers and assigns unto Mortgagee all Rents now or hereafter due or payable for the occupancy or use of the Property, and all Leases, whether written or oral, with all security therefor, including all guaranties thereof, now or hereafter affecting the Property; reserving unto Mortgagor, however, a license to collect and retain such Rents and all security for the Leases prior to the occurrence of any Event of Default. Such license shall be revocable by Mortgagee without notice to Mortgagor at any time that an Event of Default exists. Mortgagor represents that the Rents and the Leases have not been heretofore sold, assigned, transferred or set over by any instrument now in force and will not at any time during the life of this assignment be sold, assigned, transferred or set over by Mortgagor or by any person or persons whomsoever; and Mortgagor has good right to sell, assign, transfer and set over the same and to grant to and confer upon Mortgagee the rights, interest, powers and authorities herein granted and conferred. Failure of Mortgagee at any time or from time to time to enforce the assignment of Rents and Leases under this Section shall not in any manner prevent its subsequent enforcement, and Mortgagee is not obligated to collect anything hereunder, but is accountable only for sums actually collected.
8.2 Further Assignments. Mortgagor shall give Mortgagee at any time upon demand any further or additional forms of assignment or transfer of such Rents, Leases and security as may be reasonably requested by Mortgagee, and shall deliver to Mortgagee executed copies of all such Leases and security.
8.3 Application of Rents. Mortgagee shall be entitled to deduct and retain a just and reasonable compensation from monies received hereunder for its services or that of its agents in collecting such monies. Any monies received by Mortgagee hereunder may be applied when received from time to time in payment of any taxes, assessments or other liens affecting the Property regardless of the delinquency, such application to be in such order as Mortgagee may determine.
The acceptance of this Mortgage by Mortgagee or the exercise of any rights by it hereunder shall not be, or be construed to be, an affirmation by it of any Lease nor an assumption of any liability under any Lease.
8.4 Collection of Rents. Upon or at any time that an Event of Default exists, Mortgagee may declare all sums secured hereby immediately due and payable, and may, at its option, without notice, and whether or not the Secured Obligations shall have been declared due and payable, either in person or by agent, with or without bringing any action or proceeding, or by a receiver to be appointed by a court, (a) enter upon, take possession of, manage and operate the Property, or any part thereof (including without limitation making necessary repairs, alterations and improvements to the Property); (b) make, cancel, enforce or modify Leases (and any guaranties thereof); (c) obtain and evict tenants; (d) fix or modify Rents; (e) do any acts which Mortgagee deems reasonably proper to protect the security thereof and (f) either with or without taking possession of the Property, in its own name sue for or otherwise collect and receive such Rents, including those past due and unpaid. In connection with the foregoing, Mortgagee shall be entitled and empowered to employ attorneys, and management, rental and other agents in and about the Property and to effect the matters which Mortgagee is empowered to do, and in the event Mortgagee shall itself effect such matters, Mortgagee shall be entitled to charge and receive reasonable management, rental and other fees therefor as may be customary in the area in which the Property is located; and the reasonable fees, charges, costs and expenses of Mortgagee or such persons shall be additional Secured Obligations. Mortgagee may apply all funds collected as aforesaid, less costs and expenses of operation and collection, including reasonable attorneys and agents fees, charges, costs and expenses, as aforesaid, upon any Secured Obligations, and in such order as Mortgagee may determine. The entering upon and taking possession of the Property, the collection of such Rents and the application thereof as aforesaid shall not cure or waive any default or waive, modify or affect notice of default under the Note or this Mortgage or invalidate any act done pursuant to such notice.
8.5 Authority of Mortgagee. Any tenants or occupants of any part of the Property are hereby authorized to recognize the claims of Mortgagee hereunder without investigating the reason for any action taken by Mortgagee, or the validity or the amount of Secured Obligations owing to Mortgagee, or the existence of any default in the Note or this Mortgage, or under or by reason of this assignment of Rents and Leases, or the application to be made by Mortgagee of any amounts to be paid to Mortgagee. The sole signature of Mortgagee shall be sufficient for the exercise of any rights under this assignment and the sole receipt of Mortgagee for any sums received shall be a full discharge and release therefor to any such tenant or occupant of the Property. Checks for all or any part of the rentals collected under this assignment of Rents and Leases shall be drawn to the exclusive order of Mortgagee.
8.6 Indemnification of Mortgagee. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to obligate Mortgagee to perform or discharge any obligation, duty or liability of any lessor under any Lease of the Property, and Mortgagor shall and does hereby indemnify and hold Mortgagee harmless from any and all liability, loss or damage which Mortgagee may or might incur under any Lease or by reason of the assignment; and any and all such liability, loss or damage incurred by Mortgagee, together with the costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys fees, incurred by Mortgagee in defense of any claims or demands therefor (whether successful or not), shall be additional Secured Obligations, and Mortgagor shall reimburse Mortgagee therefor on demand.
ARTICLE 9
MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS
9.1 Time of the Essence. Time is of the essence with respect to all provisions of the Loan Documents.
9.2 Joint and Several Obligations. If Mortgagor is more than one person or entity, then: (a) all Persons comprising Mortgagor are jointly and severally liable for all of the Secured Obligations; (b) all representations, warranties, and covenants made by Mortgagor shall be deemed representations, warranties, and covenants of each of the Persons comprising Mortgagor; (c) any breach, Default or Event of Default by any of the Persons comprising Mortgagor hereunder shall be deemed to be a breach, Default, or Event of Default of Mortgagor; (d) any reference herein contained to the knowledge or awareness of Mortgagor shall mean the actual or constructive knowledge or awareness of the Guarantors; and (e) any event creating personal liability of any of the Persons comprising Mortgagor shall create personal liability for all such Persons.
9.3 Waiver of Homestead and Other Exemptions. To the extent permitted by law, Mortgagor hereby waives all rights to any homestead or other exemption to which Mortgagor would otherwise be entitled under any present or future constitutional, statutory, or other provision of applicable state or federal law. Mortgagor hereby waives any right it may have to require Mortgagee to marshal all or any portion of the security for the Secured Obligations. Notwithstanding the existence of interests in the Property, Chattels or Intangible Personalty other than that created by this Mortgage, and notwithstanding any other provision of this Mortgage, upon an Event of Default, to the extent permitted by applicable law, Mortgagee shall have the right, in Mortgagees sole discretion, to determine the order in which the Property, Chattels or Intangible Personalty shall be subjected to the remedies provided in this Mortgage and to determine the order in which all or any part of the Indebtedness secured by this Mortgage is satisfied from the proceeds realized upon the exercise of the remedies provided in this Mortgage.
9.4 Non Recourse; Exceptions to Non-Recourse. Except as expressly set forth in Section 18 of the Note and Section 9.21 of this Mortgage, the recourse of Mortgagee with respect to the obligations evidenced by the Note, this Mortgage and the other Loan Documents (except for the Guaranty and the Environmental Indemnity Agreement) shall be solely to the Property, Chattels and Intangible Personalty, and any other collateral given as security for the Note.
9.5 Rights and Remedies Cumulative. Mortgagees rights and remedies under each of the Loan Documents are cumulative of the rights and remedies available to Mortgagee under each of the other Loan Documents and those otherwise available to Mortgagee at law or in equity. No act of Mortgagee shall be construed as an election to proceed under any particular provision of any Loan Document to the exclusion of any other provision in the same or any other Loan Document, or as an election of remedies to the exclusion of any other remedy which may then or thereafter be available to Mortgagee.
9.6 No Implied Waivers. Mortgagee shall not be deemed to have waived any provision of any Loan Document unless such waiver is in writing and is signed by Mortgagee. Without limiting the generality of the preceding sentence, neither Mortgagees acceptance of any payment with knowledge of a Default by Mortgagor, nor any failure by Mortgagee to exercise any remedy following a Default by Mortgagor shall be deemed a waiver of such Default, and no waiver by Mortgagee of any particular Default on the part of Mortgagor shall be deemed a waiver of any other Default or of any similar Default in the future.
9.7 No Third Party Rights. No person shall be a third party beneficiary of any provision of any of the Loan Documents. All provisions of the Loan Documents favoring Mortgagee are intended solely for the benefit of Mortgagee, and no third party shall be entitled to assume or expect that Mortgagee will not waive or consent to modification of any such provision in Mortgagees sole discretion.
9.8 Preservation of Liability and Priority. Without affecting the liability of Mortgagor or of any other person (except a person expressly released in writing) for payment and performance of all of the Secured Obligations; and without affecting the rights of Mortgagee with respect to any security not expressly released in writing, and without impairing in any way the priority of this Mortgage over the interests of any person acquired or first evidenced by recording subsequent to the recording hereof, Mortgagee may, either before or after the maturity of the Note, and without notice or consent: (a) release any person liable for payment or performance of all or any part of the Secured Obligations; (b) make any agreement altering the terms of payment or performance of all or any of the Secured Obligations; (c) exercise or refrain from exercising, or waive, any right or remedy which Mortgagee may have under any of the Loan Documents; (d) accept additional security of any kind for any of the Secured Obligations; or (e) release or otherwise deal with any real or personal property securing the Secured Obligations. Any person acquiring or recording evidence of any interest of any nature in the Property, the Chattels, or the Intangible Personalty shall be deemed, by acquiring such interest or recording any evidence thereof, to have agreed and consented to any or all such actions by Mortgagee.
9.9 Subrogation of Mortgagee. Mortgagee shall be subrogated to the lien of any previous encumbrance discharged with funds advanced by Mortgagee under the Loan Documents, regardless of whether such previous encumbrance has been released of record.
9.10 Notices. Any notice, consent or approval required or permitted to be given by Mortgagor or Mortgagee under this Mortgage shall be in writing and will be deemed given (a) upon personal delivery, (b) on the first Business Day after receipted delivery to a courier service which guarantees next-business-day delivery, or (c) on the third Business Day after mailing, by registered or certified United States mail, postage prepaid, in any case to the appropriate party at its address set forth below:

Attention: Andrew L. Jagoda, Esq.
Either party may change such partys address for notices or copies of notices by giving notice to the other party in accordance with this Section.
9.11 Defeasance. Upon payment and performance in full of all of the Secured Obligations, Mortgagee will, at the sole cost and expense of Mortgagor, execute and deliver to Mortgagor such documents as may be required to release this Mortgage of record or in accordance with Section 10.8 hereof, to assign this Mortgage as directed by Mortgagor.
9.12 Illegality. If any provision of this Mortgage is held to be illegal, invalid, or unenforceable under present or future laws effective during the term of this Mortgage, the legality, validity, and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Mortgage shall not be affected thereby, and in lieu of each such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision there shall be added automatically as a part of this Mortgage a provision as similar in terms to such illegal, invalid, or unenforceable provision as may be possible and be legal, valid, and enforceable. If the rights and liens created by this Mortgage shall be invalid or unenforceable as to any part of the Secured Obligations, then the unsecured portion of the Secured Obligations shall be completely paid prior to the payment of the remaining and secured portion of the Secured Obligations, and all payments made on the Secured Obligations shall be considered to have been paid on and applied first to the complete payment of the unsecured portion of the Secured Obligations.
9.13 Usury Savings Clause. It is expressly stipulated and agreed to be the intent of Mortgagee and Mortgagor at all times to comply with the applicable law governing the highest lawful interest rate. If the applicable law is ever judicially interpreted so as to render usurious any amount called for under the Note or under any of the other Loan Documents, or contracted for, charged, taken, reserved or received with respect to the loan evidenced thereby, or if acceleration of the maturity of the Note, any prepayment by Mortgagor, or any other circumstance whatsoever, results in Mortgagor having paid any interest in excess of that permitted by applicable law, then it is the express intent of Mortgagor and Mortgagee that all excess amounts theretofore collected by Mortgagee be credited on the principal balance of the Note (or, at Mortgagees option, paid over to Mortgagor), and the provisions of the Note and other Loan Documents immediately be deemed reformed and the amounts thereafter collectible hereunder and thereunder reduced, without the necessity of the execution of any new document, so as to comply with the applicable law, but so as to permit the recovery of the fullest amount otherwise called for hereunder and thereunder. The right to accelerate maturity of the Note does not include the right to accelerate any interest which has not otherwise accrued on the date of such acceleration, and Mortgagee does not intend to collect any unearned interest in the event of acceleration. All sums paid or agreed to be paid to Mortgagee for the use, forbearance or detention of the Secured Obligations evidenced hereby or by the Note shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread throughout the full term of such Secured Obligations until payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of such Secured Obligations does not exceed the maximum rate or amount of interest permitted under applicable law. The term applicable law as used herein shall mean any federal or state law applicable to the loan made by Mortgagee to Mortgagor evidenced by the Note.
9.14 Obligations Binding Upon Mortgagors Successors. This Mortgage is binding upon Mortgagor and Mortgagors successors and assigns, and shall inure to the benefit of Mortgagee, and its successors and assigns, and the provisions hereof shall likewise be covenants running with the land. The duties, covenants, conditions, obligations, and warranties of Mortgagor in this Mortgage shall be joint and several obligations of Mortgagor and Mortgagors successors and assigns.
9.15 Construction. All pronouns and any variations of pronouns herein shall be deemed to refer to the masculine, feminine, or neuter, singular or plural, as the identity of the parties may require. Whenever the terms herein are singular, the same shall be deemed to mean the plural, as the identity of the parties or the context requires. The term including shall mean including, without limitation. Each party hereto acknowledges that each party hereto and its respective counsel reviewed and revised this Mortgage and the other Loan Documents, and each party hereto agrees that any rule of construction to the effect that ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting party shall not apply in the interpretation of this Mortgage and the other Loan Documents.
9.16 Attorneys Fees. Any reference in this Mortgage to attorneys or counsel fees paid or incurred by Mortgagee shall be deemed to include paralegals fees and legal assistants fees. Moreover, wherever provision is made herein for payment of attorneys or counsels fees or expenses incurred by Mortgagee, such provision shall include but not be limited to, such fees or expenses incurred in any and all judicial, bankruptcy, reorganization, administrative, or other proceedings, including appellate proceedings, whether such fees or expenses arise before proceedings are commenced, during such proceedings or after entry of a final judgment.
9.17 Waiver and Agreement Regarding Prepayment.
(a) EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE EXPRESSLY PERMITTED HEREUNDER OR UNDER THE NOTE, MORTGAGOR HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE UNDER APPLICABLE LAW TO PREPAY THE NOTE, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, WITHOUT PREPAYMENT CHARGE, UPON ACCELERATION OF THE MATURITY DATE OF THE NOTE, AND AGREES THAT, EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE EXPRESSLY PERMITTED HEREUNDER OR UNDER THE NOTE, IF FOR ANY REASON A PREPAYMENT OF ALL OR ANY PART OF THE NOTE IS MADE, WHETHER VOLUNTARILY OR FOLLOWING ANY ACCELERATION OF THE MATURITY DATE OF THE NOTE BY MORTGAGEE ON ACCOUNT OF THE OCCURRENCE OF ANY EVENT OF DEFAULT ARISING FOR ANY REASON, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, AS A RESULT OF ANY PROHIBITED OR RESTRICTED TRANSFER, FURTHER ENCUMBRANCE OR DISPOSITION OF THE PROPERTY OR ANY PART THEREOF SECURING THE NOTE, THEN MORTGAGOR SHALL BE OBLIGATED TO PAY, CONCURRENTLY WITH SUCH PREPAYMENT, THE PREPAYMENT PREMIUM PROVIDED FOR IN THE NOTE (OR, IN THE EVENT OF ACCELERATION WHEN THE NOTE IS CLOSED TO PREPAYMENT, AS PROVIDED IN THE DEFINITION OF SECURED OBLIGATIONS SET FORTH IN ARTICLE 1 HEREOF). MORTGAGOR HEREBY DECLARES THAT MORTGAGEES AGREEMENT TO MAKE THE LOAN EVIDENCED BY THE NOTE AT THE INTEREST RATE AND FOR THE TERM SET FORTH IN THE NOTE CONSTITUTES ADEQUATE CONSIDERATION, GIVEN INDIVIDUAL WEIGHT BY MORTGAGOR, FOR THIS WAIVER AND AGREEMENT.
(b) If the maturity of the Note secured by this Mortgage is accelerated, Mortgagor shall pay a prepayment premium in an amount equal to any prepayment premium which would be payable under the terms of the Note as if the Note were prepaid in full on the date of the acceleration. If under the terms of the Note no voluntary prepayment would be permissible on the date of such acceleration, then the prepayment fee or premium shall be equal to one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the highest prepayment fee or premium set forth in the Note, calculated as of the date of such acceleration as if prepayment were permitted on such date.
9.18 Waiver of Jury Trial. MORTGAGEE AND MORTGAGOR KNOWINGLY, IRREVOCABLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT EITHER MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM BASED ON THIS MORTGAGE, OR ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS MORTGAGE OR ANY LOAN DOCUMENT, OR ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT, COURSE OF DEALING, STATEMENT (WHETHER VERBAL OR WRITTEN) OR ACTIONS OF ANY PARTY HERETO OR TO ANY LOAN DOCUMENT. THIS PROVISION IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR MORTGAGEE AND MORTGAGOR TO ENTER INTO THE LOAN TRANSACTION EVIDENCED BY THE NOTE.
9.19 Governing Laws; Forum.
(a) The substantive laws of the State of Connecticut shall govern the validity, construction, enforcement and interpretation of this Mortgage.
(b) Any legal suit, action or proceeding against Mortgagee or Mortgagor arising out of or relating to this Mortgage may at Mortgagees option be instituted in any federal or state court serving the Town of Orange, the Town of Shelton or the Town of Milford or the County of Fairfield or the County of New Haven, State of Connecticut and Mortgagor waives any objections which it may now or hereafter have based on venue and/or forum non conveniens of any such suit, action or proceeding, and Mortgagor hereby irrevocably submits to the jurisdiction of any such court in any suit, action or proceeding.
9.20 Entire Agreement. This Mortgage, together with the other Loan Documents, contains the entire understanding between the parties to the matters addressed herein, and may not be changed, amended, modified or waived except pursuant to a written agreement executed by the parties, and supersedes any other understandings or agreements with respect to the matters covered hereby.
9.21 Limitation on Liability. The provisions of Section 18(a) and Section 18(b) of the Note are incorporated herein by reference.
9.22 Claims Against Mortgagee. Mortgagee shall not be in default under this Mortgage, or under any of the other Loan Documents, unless a written notice specifically setting forth the claim of Mortgagor shall have been given to Mortgagee within three (3) months after Mortgagor first had knowledge of the occurrence of the event that Mortgagor alleges gave rise to such claim and Mortgagee does not remedy or cure the default, if any there be, promptly thereafter. Mortgagor waives any claim, set-off or defense against Mortgagee arising by reason of any alleged default by Mortgagee as to which Mortgagor does not give such notice timely as aforesaid. Mortgagor acknowledges that such waiver is or may be essential to Mortgagees ability to enforce Mortgagees remedies without delay and that such waiver therefore constitutes a substantial part of the bargain between Mortgagee and Mortgagor with respect to the Loan.
9.23 Acceptance of Cures for Events of Default. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Mortgage or the other Loan Documents, Mortgagee shall in no event or under any circumstance be obligated or required to accept a cure by Mortgagor or by any other person of an Event of Default unless Mortgagee agrees to do so in the exercise of its sole and absolute discretion, it being agreed that once an Event of Default has occurred, Mortgagee shall be absolutely and unconditionally entitled to pursue all rights and remedies available to it under the Loan Documents or otherwise at law or in equity.
ARTICLE 10
CONNECTICUT PROVISIONS
10.1 Principles of Construction. In the event of any inconsistencies between the terms and conditions of this Article 10 and the terms and conditions of this Mortgage, the terms and conditions of this Article 10 shall control and be binding.
10.2 Open-End Mortgage. This is an OPEN-END MORTGAGE made pursuant to and subject to all of the terms and provisions of Section 49-2(c) of the Connecticut General Statutes and the holder hereof shall have all of the rights, powers and protection to which the holder of an OPEN-END MORTGAGE DEED is entitled under Connecticut law. Upon request the Mortgagee may, in its discretion, make future advances to Mortgagor pursuant to the Note, notwithstanding any repayments or prepayments of the outstanding principal balance of the Note. Any such future advance and the interest payable thereon shall be secured by this Mortgage, equally with, and with the same priority over other claims as the original debt secured hereby when evidenced by promissory notes stating that the notes are secured hereby. At no time shall the principal amount of the debt secured by this Mortgage exceed the original loan authorized, nor shall the maturity of any future advance secured hereby extend beyond the maturity of the original mortgage debt as stated in the Note.
10.3 Release. Upon the payment and/or defeasance in full of all principal, interest and other sums due under the Note, this Mortgage and the other Loan Documents in accordance with the terms and conditions of such instruments, Mortgagee shall deliver to Mortgagor, at Mortgagors expense, a release of the lien of this Mortgage, in recordable form.
10.4 COMMERCIAL TRANSACTION. MORTGAGOR ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THE TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREIN IS A COMMERCIAL TRANSACTION WITHIN THE MEANING OF SECTION 52-278A OF THE CONNECTICUT GENERAL STATUTES, AND THAT IN ANY ACTION UPON THIS TRANSACTION, THE LENDER MAY AVAIL ITSELF OF AND PURSUE ITS RIGHTS TO OBTAIN A PREJUDGMENT REMEDY IN ACCORDANCE WITH SECTION 52-278F OF THE CONNECTICUT GENERAL STATUTES. MORTGAGOR HAS BEEN ADVISED BY COUNSEL OF ITS RIGHTS WITH RESPECT TO PREJUDGMENT REMEDIES UNDER CHAPTER 903A OF THE CONNECTICUT GENERAL STATUTES, AS AMENDED, INCLUDING SECTIONS 52-278A ET SEQ. MORTGAGOR HEREBY KNOWINGLY AND WILLINGLY WAIVES TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW ALL RIGHTS OF NOTICE, JUDICIAL HEARING OR PRIOR COURT ORDER IN CONNECTION WITH THE OBTAINING BY MORTGAGEE OF ANY PREJUDGMENT REMEDY WITH RESPECT TO THIS MORTGAGE, OR PURSUANT TO ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS EXECUTED BY MORTGAGOR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS TRANSACTION, INCLUDING ANY AMENDMENTS OR EXTENSIONS HEREOF OR THEREOF.

10.5 MORTGAGOR ACKNOWLEDGES, REPRESENTS AND WARRANTS THAT THE LOAN EVIDENCED BY THE NOTE IS FOR COMMERCIAL PURPOSES. MORTGAGOR FURTHER ACKNOWLEDGES, REPRESENTS AND WARRANTS THAT MORTGAGOR IS ENGAGED EXCLUSIVELY IN COMMERCIAL PURSUITS AND THAT THE PROCEEDS OF THE NOTE ARE TO BE UTILIZED IN THE BUSINESS ACTIVITIES OF MORTGAGOR AND WILL NOT BE UTILIZED FOR CONSUMER PURPOSES.

PROMISSORY NOTE
U.S. $3,683,700 |
|
March 8, 2011 |
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, and at all times hereafter specified, WU/LH 470 BRIDGEPORT L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company ( Maker ), having an address at c/o Lighthouse Real Estate Management LLC, 60 Hempstead Avenue, Suite 718, West Hempstead, New York 11552, promises to pay to the order of FIRST SUNAMERICA LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY , a New York corporation, having an address at 1 SunAmerica Center, Century City, Los Angeles, California 90067-6022 (hereinafter referred to, together with each subsequent holder hereof, as Holder ), or at such other address as may be designated from time to time hereafter by any Holder, the principal sum of THREE MILLION SIX HUNDRED EIGHTY-THREE THOUSAND SEVEN HUNDRED AND NO/100THS DOLLARS ($3,683,700), together with interest on the principal balance outstanding from time to time, as hereinafter provided, in lawful money of the United States of America.
By its execution and delivery of this promissory note (this Note ), Maker covenants and agrees as follows:
1. Interest Rate and Payments .
(a) The balance of principal outstanding from time to time under this Note shall bear interest at the rate of five and seventy-six hundredths percent (5.76%) per annum (the Original Interest Rate ), computed on the basis of a three hundred sixty (360) day year composed of twelve (12) months of thirty (30) days each; however, interest for partial months shall be calculated by multiplying the principal balance of this Note by the applicable interest rate (i.e., the Original Interest Rate or the New Rate (hereinafter defined)), dividing the product by three hundred sixty (360), and multiplying that result by the actual number of days elapsed.
(b) Interest only on this Note shall be payable on the date the loan evidenced by this Note (the Loan ) is funded by Holder, in advance, for the period from and including the date hereof through and including March 31, 2011.
(c) Commencing on May 1, 2011 and on the first day of each month thereafter through and including April 1, 2012, (each such date a Interest Only Payment Date ) payments of interest only shall be payable, in arrears, in the amount of $17,681.76.
(d) Commencing on May 1, 2012 and on the first day of each month thereafter through and including the first day of the month immediately preceding the Maturity Date (each such date a Principal and Interest Payment Date and together with any Interest Only Payment Date, referred to herein, collectively, as a Payment Date ), combined payments of principal and interest shall be payable, in arrears, in the amount of $23,196.66 each (such amount representing an amount that would be sufficient to fully amortize the original principal amount of this Note over a twenty-five (25) year period (the Amortization Period ), if such amortization were based on a three hundred sixty (360) day year composed of twelve (12) months of thirty (30) days each).
(e) The entire outstanding principal balance, and all other amounts due under this Note and the other Loan Documents (as hereinafter defined), together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, shall be due and payable in full on April 1, 2018 (the Maturity Date ).
2. Holders Extension Option; Net Operating Income . The provisions of this Section 2 concern the election of Holder to extend the term of the Loan for the Extension Term (as defined below) and certain obligations of Maker during the Extension Term.
(a) If Maker shall fail to pay the outstanding principal balance of this Note and all accrued interest and other charges due hereon and all other amounts due under the Loan Documents, at the Maturity Date, Holder shall have the right, at Holders sole option and discretion, to extend the term of the Loan for an additional period of five (5) years (the Extension Term ) and require Maker to make additional monthly payments of net operating income as provided herein. If Holder elects to extend the term of the Loan, Maker shall pay all fees of Holder incurred in connection with such extension, including, but not limited to, attorneys fees and title insurance premiums. Maker shall execute all documents reasonably requested by Holder to evidence and secure the Loan, as extended, and shall obtain and provide to Holder any title insurance policy or endorsement requested by Holder. If Holder elects to extend the term of the loan for the Extension Term, no Event of Default shall be deemed to exist solely by reason of the failure by Maker to pay such outstanding principal balance of this Note and all accrued interest and other charges due hereunder, and all other amounts due under the Loan Documents, on the Maturity Date.
(b) Should Holder elect to extend the term of the Loan as provided above, Holder shall: (i) reset the interest rate borne by the then-existing principal balance of the Loan to a rate per annum (the New Rate ) equal to the greater of (A) the Original Interest Rate, or (B) Holders (or comparable lenders, if Holder is no longer making such loans) then-prevailing interest rate for five (5) year loans secured by properties similar to the Property (hereinafter defined), as determined by Holder in its sole discretion; (ii) re-amortize the then-existing principal balance of the Loan over the Amortization Period; (iii) have the right to require Maker to enter into modifications of the non-economic terms of the Loan Documents as Holder may request (the Non-Economic Modifications ); and (iv) notwithstanding any provision set forth in the Loan Documents to the contrary, have the right to require Maker to make monthly payments into escrow for insurance premiums and real property taxes, assessments and similar governmental charges. Hence, monthly principal and interest payments during the Extension Term shall be based upon the New Rate, in an amount that would be sufficient to fully amortize the outstanding principal balance of the Loan over the Amortization Period.
(c) If Holder elects to extend the term of the Loan, Holder shall advise Maker of the New Rate on or prior to the Maturity Date, but in no event shall the term be extended unless Holder is entitled to do so under Section 2(a) above.
(d) In addition to the required monthly payments of principal and interest set forth above, commencing on the first day of the second month following the Maturity Date and continuing on the first day of each month thereafter during the Extension Term (each an Additional Payment Date ), Maker shall make monthly payments to Holder in an amount equal to all Net Operating Income (hereinafter defined) attributable to the Property for the calendar month ending on the last day of the month that is two months preceding each such Additional Payment Date.
For example, assuming the Maturity Date is January 1, then Net Operating Income for the period from January 1 through January 31 shall be payable to Holder on March 1; Net Operating Income for the period from February 1 through February 28 shall be payable to Holder on April 1, and so on.
(e) Holder shall deposit all such Net Operating Income received from Maker into an account or accounts maintained at a financial institution chosen by Holder or its Servicer in its sole discretion (the Deposit Account ) and all such funds shall be invested in a manner acceptable to Holder in its sole discretion. All interest, dividends and earnings credited to the Deposit Account shall be held and applied in accordance with the terms hereof.
(f) On the third Additional Payment Date and on each third Additional Payment Date thereafter, Holder shall apply all Excess Funds (hereinafter defined), if any, to prepayment of amounts due under this Note, without premium or penalty.
(g) As security for the repayment of the Loan and the performance of all other obligations of Maker under the Loan Documents, Maker hereby assigns, pledges, conveys, delivers, transfers and grants to Holder a first priority security interest in and to: (i) all Makers right, title and interest in and to the Deposit Account; (ii) all rights to payment from the Deposit Account and the money deposited therein or credited thereto (whether then due or in the future due and whether then or in the future on deposit); (iii) all interest thereon; (iv) any certificates, instruments and securities, if any, representing the Deposit Account; (v) all claims, demands, general intangibles, choses in action and other rights or interests of Maker in respect of the Deposit Account; (vi) any monies then or at any time thereafter deposited therein; and (vii) any increases, renewals, extensions, substitutions and replacements thereof and all proceeds of the foregoing.
(h) From time to time, but not more frequently than monthly, Maker may request a disbursement (a Disbursement ) from the Deposit Account for capital expenses, tenant improvement expenses, leasing commissions and special contingency expenses. Holder may consent to or deny any such Disbursement in its sole discretion.
(i) During the existence of an Event of Default (hereinafter defined), (i) Maker shall not be entitled to any Disbursement from the Deposit Account and (ii) Holder shall be entitled to take immediate possession and control of the Deposit Account (and all funds contained therein) and to pursue all of its rights and remedies available to Holder under the Loan Documents, at law and in equity.
(j) All of the terms and conditions of the Loan shall apply during the Extension Term, except as expressly set forth above, and except that no further extensions of the Loan shall be permitted.
(k) For the purposes of the foregoing:
(i) Excess Funds shall mean, on any Additional Payment Date, the amount of funds then existing in the Deposit Account (including any Net Operating Income due on the applicable Additional Payment Date), less an amount equal to the sum of three regularly scheduled payments of principal and interest due on this Note;
(ii) Net Operating Income shall mean, for any particular period of time, Gross Revenue for the relevant period, less Operating Expenses for the relevant period; provided, however, that if such amount is equal to or less than zero (0), Net Operating Income shall equal zero (0);
(iii) Gross Revenue shall mean all payments and other revenues (exclusive, however, of any payments attributable to sales taxes) received by or on behalf of Maker from all sources related to the ownership or operation of the Property, including, but not limited to, rents, room charges, parking fees, interest, security deposits (unless required to be held in a segregated account), business interruption insurance proceeds, operating expense pass-through revenues, direct expense reimbursements and common area maintenance charges, for the relevant period for which the calculation of Gross Revenue is being made; and
(iv) Operating Expenses shall mean the sum of all ordinary and necessary operating expenses actually paid by Maker in connection with the operation of the Property during the relevant period for which the calculation of Operating Expenses is being made, including, but not limited to, (a) payments made by Maker for taxes and insurance required under the Loan Documents and (b) monthly debt service payments as required under this Note.
3. Budgets During Extension Term .
(a) Within fifteen (15) Business Days (as defined below) following the Maturity Date and on or before December 1 of each subsequent calendar year, Maker shall deliver to Holder a proposed revenue and expense budget for the Property for the remainder of the calendar year in which the Maturity Date occurs or the immediately succeeding calendar year (as applicable). Such budget shall set forth Makers projection of Gross Revenue and Operating Expenses for the applicable calendar year, which shall be subject to Holders reasonable approval. Once a proposed budget has been reviewed and approved by Holder, and Maker has made all revisions requested by Holder, if any, the revised budget shall be delivered to Holder and shall thereafter become the budget for the Property hereunder (any such budget referred to as the Budget ) for the applicable calendar year. If Maker and Holder are unable to agree upon a Budget for any calendar year, the budgeted Operating Expenses (excluding extraordinary items) provided in the Budget for the Property for the preceding calendar year shall be considered the Budget for the Property for the subject calendar year until Maker and Holder agree upon a new Budget for such calendar year.
(b) During the Extension Term, Maker shall operate the Property in accordance with the applicable Budget for the applicable calendar year, and the total of expenditures relating to the Property exceeding one hundred and five percent (105%) of the aggregate of such expenses set forth in the applicable Budget for the applicable time period shall not be treated as Operating Expenses for the purposes of calculating Net Operating Income, without the prior written consent of Holder except for emergency expenditures which, in Makers good faith judgment, are reasonably necessary to protect, or avoid immediate danger to, life or property.
4. Reports During Extension Term .
(a) During the Extension Term, Maker shall deliver to Holder all financial statements reasonably required by Holder to calculate Net Operating Income, including, without limitation, a monthly statement to be delivered to Holder concurrently with Makers payment of Net Operating Income that sets forth the amount of Net Operating Income accompanying such statement and Makers calculation of Net Operating Income for the relevant calendar month. Such statements shall be certified by an executive officer of Maker or Makers manager, managing member or general partner (as applicable) as having been prepared in accordance with the terms hereof and to be true, accurate and complete in all material respects.
(b) In addition, on or before February 1 of each calendar year during the Extension Term, Maker shall submit to Holder an annual income and expense statement for the Property which shall include the calculation of Gross Revenue, Operating Expenses and Net Operating Income for the preceding calendar year and shall be accompanied by Makers reconciliation of any difference between the actual aggregate amount of the Net Operating Income for such calendar year and the aggregate amount of Net Operating Income for such calendar year actually remitted to Holder. All such statements shall be certified by an executive officer of Maker or Makers manager, managing member or general partner (as applicable) as having been prepared in accordance with the terms hereof and to be true, accurate and complete in all material respects. If any such annual financial statement discloses any inconsistency between the calculation of Net Operating Income and the amount of Net Operating Income actually remitted to Holder, Maker shall immediately remit to Holder the amount of any underpayment of Net Operating Income for such calendar year or, in the event of an overpayment by Maker, such amount may be withheld from any subsequent payment of Net Operating Income required hereunder.
(c) Holder may notify Maker within ninety (90) days after receipt of any statement or report required hereunder that Holder disputes any computation or item contained in any portion of such statement or report. If Holder so notifies Maker, Holder and Maker shall meet in good faith within twenty (20) days after Holders notice to Maker to resolve such disputed items. If, despite such good faith efforts, the parties are unable to resolve the dispute at such meeting or within ten (10) days thereafter, the items shall be resolved by an independent certified public accountant designated by Holder within fifteen (15) days after such ten (10) day period. The determination of such accountant shall be final. All fees of such accountant shall be paid by Maker. Maker shall remit to Holder any additional amount of Net Operating Income found to be due for such periods within ten (10) days after the resolution of such dispute by the parties or the accountants determination, as applicable. The amount of any overpayment found to have been made for such periods may be withheld from any required future remittance of Net Operating Income.
(d) Maker shall at all times keep and maintain full and accurate books of account and records adequate to reflect correctly all items required in order to calculate Net Operating Income.
5. Prepayment
(a) Maker shall have no right to prepay all or any part of this Note prior to the date that is the last day of the forty-second (42) month following the date of this Note (the Lockout Expiration Date ).
(b) At any time following the Lockout Expiration Date, Maker shall have the right to prepay the full principal amount of this Note, and all other amounts due under this Note and the other Loan Documents, and all accrued but unpaid interest thereon as of the date of prepayment, provided that (i) Maker gives not less than thirty (30) days prior written notice to Holder of Makers election to prepay this Note, (ii) Maker pays a prepayment premium to Holder equal to the greater of (A) one percent (1%) of the outstanding principal amount of this Note or (B) the Present Value of this Note (hereinafter defined), less the amount of principal being prepaid, calculated as of the prepayment date and (iii) Maker prepays each of the other Additional Notes (as such term is defined in the Mortgage) and all other amounts due under the Additional Notes and the other Additional Loan Documents (as such term is defined in the Mortgage), and all accrued but unpaid interest thereon as of the date of prepayment.
(c) Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 5 , no prepayment premium shall be due (i) in connection with any involuntary prepayment due to the Holders application of any insurance proceeds or condemnation awards to the principal balance of the Loan or (ii) if Maker provides additional funds to prepay the Loan in connection with the application of any insurance proceeds or condemnation awards to the principal balance of the Loan following any casualty or condemnation; provided, in any such case, that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such application of insurance proceeds or condemnation awards.
(d) Holder shall notify Maker in writing of the amount and basis of determination of the prepayment premium. Holder shall not be obligated to accept any prepayment of the principal balance of this Note unless such prepayment is accompanied by (i) the applicable prepayment premium, (ii) the outstanding principal balance of the Loan, (iii) all accrued interest and other sums due under this Note and all other amounts due under the Loan Documents and (iv) the outstanding principal balance of the Additional Loans (as such term is defined in the Mortgage) all accrued interest and other sums due under the Additional Notes and all other amounts due under the Additional Loan Documents. Maker may not prepay the Loan on a Friday, nor on any public holiday or the equivalent for banks generally under the laws of the State of New York or on any day preceding a public holiday, or the equivalent for banks generally under the laws of the State of New York.
(e) Except for making payments of Net Operating Income as required above, and except for the application of insurance proceeds or condemnation awards to the principal balance of this Note, as provided in the Mortgage (hereinafter defined), in no event shall Maker be permitted to make any partial prepayments of this Note.
(f) If Holder accelerates this Note for any reason, then in addition to Makers obligation to pay the then outstanding principal balance of this Note and all accrued but unpaid interest thereon, Maker shall pay an additional amount equal to the prepayment premium that would be due to Holder if Maker were voluntarily prepaying this Note at the time that such acceleration occurred, or if under the terms hereof no voluntary prepayment would be permissible on the date of such acceleration, Maker shall pay a prepayment premium equal to 150% of the highest prepayment premium set forth in this Note, calculated as of the date of such acceleration as if prepayment were permitted on such date.
(g) For the purposes of the foregoing:
(i) The Present Value of this Note with respect to any prepayment of this Note, as of any date, shall be determined by discounting all scheduled payments of principal and interest remaining to maturity of this Note, attributed to the amount being prepaid, at the Discount Rate. If prepayment occurs on a date other than a Payment Date, the actual number of days remaining from the prepayment date to the next Payment Date will be used to calculate such discount within such period;
(ii) The Discount Rate is the rate which, when compounded monthly, is equivalent to the Treasury Rate, when compounded semi-annually;
(iii) The Treasury Rate is the semi-annual yield on the Treasury Constant Maturity Series with maturity equal to the remaining weighted average life of this Note, for the week prior to the prepayment date, as reported in Federal Reserve Statistical Release H. 15 - Selected Interest Rates, conclusively determined by Holder on the prepayment date. The rate will be determined by linear interpolation between the yields reported in Release H.15, if necessary. In the event Release H.15 is no longer published, Holder shall select a comparable publication to determine the Treasury Rate.
(h) Holder shall not be obligated actually to reinvest the amount prepaid in any treasury obligations as a condition precedent to receiving any prepayment premium.
(i) Notwithstanding the foregoing, (A) at any time during the Extension Term, Maker shall have the right to prepay in full, but not in part, the principal amount of this Note and all accrued but unpaid interest thereon as of the date of prepayment, without prepayment premium thereon and (B) no prepayment premium shall be due in connection with the prepayment of the full principal amount of this Note, and all other amounts due under this Note and the other Loan Documents, and all accrued but unpaid interest thereon as of the date of prepayment, during the ninety (90) day period prior to the Maturity Date.
6. Payments . Whenever any payment to be made under this Note shall be stated to be due on a Saturday, Sunday or public holiday or the equivalent for banks generally under the laws of the State of New York (any other day being a Business Day ), such payment may be made on the next succeeding Business Day.
7. Default Rate .
(a) The entire balance of principal, interest, and any other sums due under this Note and the other Loan Documents upon the maturity hereof, by acceleration or otherwise, shall bear interest from the date due until paid at the greater of (i) eighteen percent (18%) per annum and (ii) a per annum rate equal to four percent (4%) over the prime rate published in The Wall Street Journal on the first business day of each month (the Default Rate ); provided, however, that such rate shall not exceed the maximum permitted by applicable state or federal law. In the event The Wall Street Journal is no longer published or no longer publishes such prime rate, Holder shall select a comparable reference.
(b) If any payment under this Note or any of the Additional Notes is not made when due, interest shall accrue at the Default Rate from the date such payment was due until payment is actually made.
8. Late Charges . In addition to interest as set forth herein, Maker shall pay to Holder a late charge equal to four percent (4%) of any amounts due under this Note in the event any such amount is not paid when due. Notwithstanding the foregoing provision, Holder will allow for one (1) five (5) day grace period upon monetary default without the obligation of paying a late charge in any twelve (12) month period during the term of the Loan.
9. Application of Payments . All payments hereunder shall be applied in the following order: (i) first, to the payment of late charges, if any; (ii) second, to the payment of prepayment premiums, if any; (iii) third, to the repayment of any sums advanced by Holder for the payment of any insurance premiums, taxes, assessments or other charges against the Property securing this Note and any other costs and expenses incurred by Holder in accordance with the Loan Documents (together with interest thereon at the Default Rate from the date of advance until repaid), if any; (iv) fourth, to the payment of accrued and unpaid interest and other amounts due and payable under the Loan Documents (other than principal), if any; and (v) fifth, to the reduction of principal. Notwithstanding the foregoing, for so long as any Event of Default is continuing, Holder shall have the continuing right to apply any payment received by Holder from or on behalf of Maker as Holder may elect against the due and owing obligations of Maker under the Note and the other Loan Documents in such order of priority or in such allocations as Holder may deem advisable in its sole and absolute discretion.
10. Immediately Available Funds . All payments under this Note shall be payable in immediately available funds without setoff, counterclaim or deduction of any kind, and shall be made by electronic funds transfer from a bank account established and maintained by Maker for such purpose.
11. Security . This Note is secured by, among other things, (i) that certain (a) Open-End Mortgage, Assignment of Leases and Rents, Security Agreement and Fixture Filing, of even date herewith, granted by Maker for the benefit of Holder (the Mortgage ) encumbering certain real property and improvements located at 470 Bridgeport Avenue, Shelton, Connecticut 06484, as more particularly described in the Mortgage (the Property ), (ii) a Guaranty Agreement from Paul Cooper, Jeffrey Ravetz and Louis Sheinker (collectively, Guarantors ), in favor of Holder (the Guaranty ) and (iii) the Affiliate Guaranty (as such term is defined in the Mortgage).
12. Certain Definitions . Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings set forth in the Mortgage.
13. Event of Default . Each of the following events will constitute an event of default (an Event of Default ) under this Note and under the Mortgage and each other document evidencing or securing or executed in connection with the Loan (collectively, the Loan Documents ), and any Event of Default under any Loan Document shall constitute an Event of Default hereunder and under each of the other Loan Documents:
(a) any failure to pay when due any interest, principal or other amount in a sum certain under this Note or under any of the other Loan Documents for which sum there is a scheduled date for payment or for which there is a date certain for payment.
(b) any failure to pay within ten (10) days following demand by Holder for any amount other than any amount described in Section 13(a) above; or
(c) any failure of Maker to properly perform any obligation contained herein or in any of the other Loan Documents (other than the obligation to make payments under this Note or the other Loan Documents) and the continuance of such failure for a period of thirty (30) days following written notice thereof from Holder to Maker; provided, however, that if such failure is not curable within such thirty (30) day period, then, so long as Maker commences to cure such failure within such thirty (30) day period and is continually and diligently attempting to cure to completion, such failure shall not be an Event of Default unless such failure remains uncured for one hundred twenty (120) days after such written notice to Maker; or
(d) if, at any time during the Extension Term, Gross Revenue for any calendar month shall be less than ninety-three percent (93%) of the amount of projected Gross Revenue for such month set forth in the applicable Budget; or
(e) the occurrence of any event that is deemed to be an Event of Default under any provision of this Note, the Mortgage, the Affiliate Guaranty any other Loan Document or any Additional Loan Document.
14. Acceleration . If at any time an Event of Default exists, the entire balance of principal, accrued interest and other sums owing hereunder shall, at the option of Holder, become at once due and payable without notice or demand. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default described in Section 13(d) hereof, Holder shall have the option, in its sole and absolute discretion, to either (a) exercise any remedies available to Holder under the Loan Documents, at law or in equity, or (b) require Maker to submit a new proposed budget for Holders approval. If Holder agrees to accept such new proposed budget, then such budget shall become the Budget for all purposes hereunder. If an Event of Default exists, Holder may exercise any right, power or remedy permitted by law or set forth herein or in the Mortgage or any other Loan Document.
15. Conditions Precedent . Maker hereby certifies and declares that all acts, conditions and things required to be done or performed or have happened precedent to the creation and issuance of this Note, and in order to constitute this Note the legal, valid and binding obligation of Maker, enforceable in accordance with the terms hereof, have been done or performed or have happened in due and strict compliance with all applicable laws.
16. Certain Waivers and Consents . Maker and all parties now or hereafter liable for the payment hereof, primarily or secondarily, directly or indirectly, and whether as endorser, guarantor, surety, or otherwise, hereby severally (a) waive presentment, demand, protest, notice of protest and/or dishonor, and all other demands or notices of any sort whatever with respect to this Note, (b) consent to impairment or release of collateral, extensions of time for payment, and acceptance of partial payments before, at, or after maturity, (c) waive any right to require Holder to proceed against any security for this Note before proceeding hereunder, (d) waive diligence in the collection of this Note or in filing suit on this Note and (e) agree to pay all out-of-pocket costs and expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys fees, which may be actually incurred in the collection of this Note or any part thereof or in preserving, securing possession of and realizing upon any security for this Note.
17. Usury Savings Clause . The provisions of this Note and of all agreements between Maker and Holder are, whether now existing or hereinafter made, hereby expressly limited so that in no contingency or event whatsoever, whether by reason of acceleration of the maturity hereof, prepayment, demand for payment or otherwise, shall the amount paid, or agreed to be paid, to Holder for the use, forbearance or detention of the principal hereof or interest hereon, which remains unpaid from time to time, exceed the maximum amount permissible under applicable law. In particular, it is the intention of the parties hereto to conform strictly to Connecticut and Federal law, whichever is applicable. If as a result of any circumstance whatsoever, the performance or fulfillment of any provision hereof or of any other agreement between Maker and Holder pertaining to the subject matter hereof shall, at the time performance or fulfillment of such provision is due, involve or purport to require any payment in excess of the limits then prescribed by applicable law, then the obligation to be performed or fulfilled shall hereby be reduced to such limit as to be valid under such applicable law, and if as a result of any circumstance whatsoever, Holder should receive as interest under this Note an amount which would exceed the then highest lawful rate, the amount by which such interest payment would exceed such highest lawful rate shall be applied to the reduction of the principal balance owing hereunder without prepayment or penalty (or, at Holders option, be paid to Maker) and in no event shall be counted as interest. To the fullest extent permitted by then applicable law, the determination of the legal maximum amount of interest shall at any and all times be made by amortizing, prorating, allocating and spreading in equal parts over the period of the full stated term of this Note, all interest at any time contracted for, charged or received from Maker in connection with this Note and all other agreements between Maker and Holder pertaining to the subject matter hereof, so that the actual rate of interest on account of the indebtedness represented by this Note is uniform throughout the term hereof and complies with all applicable law.
18. Non-Recourse; Exceptions to Non-Recourse .
(a) Nothing contained in the Loan Documents shall be deemed to impair, limit or prejudice Holders rights in foreclosure proceedings or in any ancillary proceedings brought to facilitate Holders foreclosure on the Property or any portion thereof or to exercise any specific rights or remedies afforded Holder under any other provisions of the Loan Documents or by law or in equity, subject to the non-recourse provisions set forth below, to recover under any guarantee given in connection with the Loan or to pursue any personal liability of Maker or any Guarantor under the Guaranty Agreement, the Environmental Indemnity Agreement or the ERISA indemnity provisions of the Mortgage. Except as expressly hereinafter set forth, the recourse of Holder with respect to the obligations evidenced by this Note, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents (except for the Guaranty and the Environmental Indemnity Agreement) shall be solely to the Property, Chattels and Intangible Personalty (as such terms are defined in the Mortgage).
Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary contained in this Note, the Mortgage or in any other Loan Document, nothing shall be deemed in any way to impair, limit or prejudice the rights of Holder to collect or recover from Maker (but not any member, manager, officer, director or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing, with the exclusion of the Guarantors) and Guarantors: (i) damages or costs (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys fees) incurred by Holder as a result of any intentional waste by Maker; (ii) any condemnation award or insurance proceeds attributable to the Property which were not paid to Holder or used to restore the Property in accordance with the terms of the Mortgage; (iii) any Rents, profits, security deposits, advances, rebates, prepaid rents or other similar sums attributable to the Property collected by or for Maker (x) following an Event of Default under any Loan Document and not properly applied to the reasonable fixed and operating expenses of the Property, including, without limitation, payments due on this Note and other sums due under the Loan Documents or (y) to the extent not deposited into the Lockbox Account; (iv) any security deposits collected by or for Maker and not applied in accordance with the applicable Leases (as such term is defined in the Mortgage); (v) the amount of any accrued taxes, assessments, and/or utility charges affecting the Property (whether or not the same have been billed to Maker) that are either unpaid by Maker or advanced by Holder under the Mortgage, except, in respect of the Property, to the extent of any of the foregoing accruing after the Termination Date (as hereinafter defined) with respect to the Property; (vi) any sums expended by Holder in fulfilling the obligations of Maker, as lessor, under any Lease affecting the Property; (vii) the amount of any loss suffered by Holder (that would otherwise be covered by insurance and available to Holder in accordance with the Loan Documents) as a result of Makers failure to maintain any insurance required under the terms of any Loan Document; and (viii) losses, damages and costs (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys fees) incurred by Holder as a result of any fraud of material misrepresentation by Maker in connection with the Property or any of the Loan Documents. For the avoidance of doubt, the matters set forth in this paragraph (a) shall be fully recourse to Maker (but not any member, manager, officer, director or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing, with the exclusion of the Guarantors) and Guarantor. For the purposes of this Section 18(a) , the Termination Date is, in respect of the Property, the earliest of (x) the date that Maker tenders to Holder or Holders designee a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure in respect of the Property, subject to no title exceptions other than real estate taxes and assessments, the Permitted Exceptions (as defined in the applicable Mortgage) and such additional exceptions approved by Holder pursuant to the Loan Documents or which are otherwise acceptable to Holder in its reasonable discretion, together with such ancillary conveyances, releases and other documentation that are customarily delivered in connection with a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure transaction, all in form reasonably satisfactory to Holder, and such deed-in-lieu of foreclosure is accepted by Holder in its sole discretion (y) the date that Maker tenders to Holder a stipulation to entry of judgment of foreclosure in respect of the Property, and (z) the date Holder, any Affiliate of Holder, or any other party takes title to the Property in connection with a foreclosure of the applicable Mortgage that encumbers the Property. If Maker elects to deliver a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure in respect of the Property, Holder shall retain the right to determine whether to accept such deed-in-lieu of foreclosure or to proceed with foreclosure proceedings and, upon Holder making such election, Maker shall execute and deliver to Holder an appropriate deed-in-lieu of foreclosure in respect of the Property, as Holder shall have elected; provided, however, that if Holder chooses to proceed with foreclosure proceedings in respect of the Property, the Termination Date shall nonetheless be the earliest of the date specified in clause (x), (y) and (z) above, provided further that if Maker thereafter fails to cooperate with Holder in respect of Holders exercise of any and all remedies available at law or in equity to Holder (including, without limitation, foreclosure), then the Termination Date shall be the earlier of the date specified in clause (y) or (z) above.
(b) The agreement contained in this Section 18 to limit the personal liability of Maker to its interest in the Property, Chattels and Intangible Personalty shall become null and void and be of no further force and effect, and Maker (but not any member, manager, officer, director or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing, with the exclusion of the Guarantors) and Guarantors shall be personally liable for the repayment of the Secured Obligations (as such term is defined in the Mortgage) in the event (i) that the Property, or any part thereof or any interest therein, or any interest in Maker, or any of them, shall be further encumbered by a voluntary lien securing any obligation upon which Maker, or any of them, any direct or indirect general partner, manager or managing member such Maker, any Guarantor, any of the Mortgagor Control Persons (as defined in the Mortgage) or any principal or affiliate of Maker, or any of them, shall be personally liable for repayment, either as obligor or guarantor, (ii) of any breach or violation of Section 5.4, 5.5 or 5.7 of the Mortgage, (iii) that Maker forfeits the Property or the Chattels or any portion of the Property or Chattels due to criminal activity, (iv) any attempt by Maker, any Guarantor or any Mortgagor Owner Person (as defined in the Mortgage) to materially delay any foreclosure against the Property, Chattels and/or Intangible Personalty, or any portion of the Property, the Chattels and/or the Intangible Personalty or any other exercise by Holder of its remedies under the Loan Documents, which attempts shall (x) include, without limitation, (A) any claim made by Maker that any Loan Document is invalid or unenforceable to an extent that would preclude any such foreclosure or other exercise of remedies, (B) Maker filing a petition in bankruptcy, Maker acquiescing in an involuntary bankruptcy proceeding, Maker failing to oppose in good faith the entry of an order for relief pursuant to any involuntary bankruptcy filed against it, or Maker filing a petition or answer seeking any reorganization, arrangement, composition, readjustment, liquidation, dissolution or similar relief under the bankruptcy laws of the United States or under any other similar federal, state or other statute relating to relief from indebtedness (whether filed by or against Maker), or (C) the appointment of a receiver, trustee or liquidator by Maker, any Guarantor or any Mortgagor Owner Person with respect to Maker or the Property or any part thereof and (y) shall not include a defense to a foreclosure that is (A) not frivolous and is advanced in good faith and (B) based upon a default by Holder under terms of the Loan Documents, or (v) any execution, amendment, modification or early termination of any Lease of any Required Tenant made in violation of the Loan Documents. For the avoidance of doubt, no such termination of any Lease shall excuse Maker from the performance of its obligations under the Loan Documents. For purposes of the foregoing, affiliate shall have the meaning ascribed to the term Affiliate in the Mortgage.
19. Severability . If any provision hereof or of any other document securing or otherwise related to the indebtedness evidenced hereby is, for any reason and to any extent, deemed invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction or with respect to any person, entity or circumstances, then neither the remainder of the document in which such provision is contained, nor the application of such provision in respect of other persons, entities, or circumstances, nor any other document referred to herein, shall be affected by such invalidity or lack of enforceability, but, instead, shall be enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by law.
20. Transfer of Note . Each provision of this Note shall be and remain in full force and effect notwithstanding any negotiation or transfer hereof and any interest herein to any other Holder or participant.
21. Governing Law . Regardless of the place of its execution, this Note shall be construed and enforced in accordance with the substantive laws of the State of Connecticut.
22. Time of Essence . Time is of the essence of this Note.
23. Remedies Cumulative . The remedies provided to Holder in this Note, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents are cumulative and concurrent and may be exercised singly, successively or jointly against Maker, the Property, and other security, or against Guarantors or any obligor under, or guarantor of, this Note or the other Loan Documents, at the sole and absolute discretion of Holder.
24. No Waiver . Holder shall not by any act or omission be deemed to have waived any of its rights or remedies hereunder unless such waiver is in writing and signed by Holder and then only to the extent specifically set forth therein. A waiver of one event shall not be construed as continuing or as a bar to or waiver of any right or remedy granted to Holder hereunder in connection with a subsequent event.
25. Joint and Several Obligation . If Maker is more than one person or entity, then: (a) all persons or entities comprising Maker are jointly and severally liable for all of Makers obligations hereunder; (b) all representations, warranties and covenants made by Maker shall be deemed representations, warranties and covenants of each of the persons or entities comprising Maker; (c) any breach, Default or Event of Default by any of the persons or entities comprising Maker hereunder shall be deemed to be a breach, Default or Event of Default of Maker; and (d) any reference herein contained to the knowledge or awareness of Maker shall mean the knowledge or awareness of any of the persons or entities comprising Maker.
26. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL . MAKER AND HOLDER KNOWINGLY, IRREVOCABLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT EITHER MAKER OR HOLDER MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM BASED ON THIS NOTE, OR ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS NOTE, THE MORTGAGE, OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS OR ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT, COURSE OF DEALING, STATEMENT (WHETHER VERBAL OR WRITTEN) OR ACTIONS OF ANY PARTY HERETO OR TO ANY LOAN DOCUMENT. THIS PROVISION IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR MAKER AND HOLDER TO ENTER INTO THE LOAN TRANSACTION EVIDENCED BY THIS NOTE.
27. WAIVER OF PREPAYMENT RIGHT WITHOUT PREMIUM . EXCEPT AS EXPLICITLY SET FORTH HEREIN, MAKER HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE UNDER APPLICABLE LAW TO PREPAY THIS NOTE, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, WITHOUT PREPAYMENT PREMIUM, UPON ACCELERATION OF THE MATURITY DATE OF THIS NOTE, AND AGREES THAT, IF FOR ANY REASON A PREPAYMENT OF ALL OR ANY PART OF THIS NOTE IS MADE, WHETHER VOLUNTARILY OR FOLLOWING ANY ACCELERATION OF THE MATURITY DATE OF THIS NOTE BY HOLDER ON ACCOUNT OF THE OCCURRENCE OF ANY EVENT OF DEFAULT ARISING FOR ANY REASON, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, AS A RESULT OF ANY PROHIBITED OR RESTRICTED TRANSFER, FURTHER ENCUMBRANCE OR DISPOSITION OF THE PROPERTY OR ANY PART THEREOF SECURING THIS NOTE, THEN MAKER SHALL BE OBLIGATED TO PAY, CONCURRENTLY WITH SUCH PREPAYMENT, THE PREPAYMENT PREMIUM PROVIDED FOR IN THIS NOTE OR, IN THE EVENT OF PREPAYMENT FOLLOWING ACCELERATION OF THE MATURITY DATE HEREOF WHEN THIS NOTE IS CLOSED TO PREPAYMENT, AS PROVIDED HEREIN AND IN THE MORTGAGE. MAKER HEREBY DECLARES THAT HOLDERS AGREEMENT TO MAKE THE LOAN AT THE INTEREST RATE AND FOR THE TERM SET FORTH IN THIS NOTE CONSTITUTES ADEQUATE CONSIDERATION, GIVEN INDIVIDUAL WEIGHT BY MAKER, FOR THIS WAIVER AND AGREEMENT.

If Maker elects to deliver a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure in respect of the Property, Holder shall retain the right
to determine whether to accept such deed-in-lieu of foreclosure or to proceed with foreclosure proceedings and, upon Holder making such election, Maker shall execute and deliver to Holder an appropriate deed-in-lieu of foreclosure in respect of the Property, as Holder shall have elected; provided, however, that if Holder chooses to proceed with foreclosure proceedings in respect of the Property, the Termination Date shall nonetheless be the earliest of the date specified in clause (x), (y) and (z) above, provided further that if Maker thereafter fails to cooperate with Holder in respect of Holders exercise of any and all remedies available at law or in equity to Holder (including, without limitation, foreclosure), then the Termination Date shall be the earlier of the date specified in clause (y) or (z) above.

foreclosure that is (A) not frivolous and is advanced in good faith and (B) based upon a default by Holder under terms of the Loan Documents, or (v) any execution, amendment, modification, assignment or early termination of any Lease of any Required Tenant made in violation of the Loan Documents.

PROMISSORY NOTE
U.S. $2,639,000 |
March 8, 2011 |
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, and at all times hereafter specified, WU/LH 950 BRIDGEPORT L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company (Maker ), having an address at c/o Lighthouse Real Estate Management LLC, 60 Hempstead Avenue, Suite 718, West Hempstead, New York 11552, promises to pay to the order of FIRST SUNAMERICA LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY, a New York corporation, having an address at 1 SunAmerica Center, Century City, Los Angeles, California 90067-6022 (hereinafter referred to, together with each subsequent holder hereof, as Holder ), or at such other address as may be designated from time to time hereafter by any Holder, the principal sum of TWO MILLION SIX HUNDRED THIRTY-NINE THOUSAND AND NO/100THS DOLLARS ($2,639,000), together with interest on the principal balance outstanding from time to time, as hereinafter provided, in lawful money of the United States of America.
By its execution and delivery of this promissory note (this Note ), Maker covenants and agrees as follows:
1. Interest Rate and Payments .
(a) The balance of principal outstanding from time to time under this Note shall bear interest at the rate of five and seventy-six hundredths percent (5.76%) per annum (the Original Interest Rate ), computed on the basis of a three hundred sixty (360) day year composed of twelve (12) months of thirty (30) days each; however, interest for partial months shall be calculated by multiplying the principal balance of this Note by the applicable interest rate (i.e., the Original Interest Rate or the New Rate (hereinafter defined)), dividing the product by three hundred sixty (360), and multiplying that result by the actual number of days elapsed.
(b) Interest only on this Note shall be payable on the date the loan evidenced by this Note (the Loan ) is funded by Holder, in advance, for the period from and including the date hereof through and including March 31, 2011.
(c) Commencing on May 1, 2011 and on the first day of each month thereafter through and including April 1, 2012, (each such date a Interest Only Payment Date ) payments of interest only shall be payable, in arrears, in the amount of $12,667.20.
(d) Commencing on May 1, 2012 and on the first day of each month thereafter through and including the first day of the month immediately preceding the Maturity Date (each such date a Principal and Interest Payment Date and together with any Interest Only Payment Date, referred to herein, collectively, as a Payment Date ), combined payments of principal and interest shall be payable, in arrears, in the amount of $16,618.07 each (such amount representing an amount that would be sufficient to fully amortize the original principal amount of this Note over a twenty-five (25) year period (the Amortization Period ), if such amortization were based on a three hundred sixty (360) day year composed of twelve (12) months of thirty (30) days each).
(e) The entire outstanding principal balance, and all other amounts due under this Note and the other Loan Documents (as hereinafter defined), together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, shall be due and payable in full on April 1, 2018 (the Maturity Date ).
2. Holders Extension Option; Net Operating Income . The provisions of this Section 2 concern the election of Holder to extend the term of the Loan for the Extension Term (as defined below) and certain obligations of Maker during the Extension Term.
(a) If Maker shall fail to pay the outstanding principal balance of this Note and all accrued interest and other charges due hereon and all other amounts due under the Loan Documents, at the Maturity Date, Holder shall have the right, at Holders sole option and discretion, to extend the term of the Loan for an additional period of five (5) years (the Extension Term ) and require Maker to make additional monthly payments of net operating income as provided herein. If Holder elects to extend the term of the Loan, Maker shall pay all fees of Holder incurred in connection with such extension, including, but not limited to, attorneys fees and title insurance premiums. Maker shall execute all documents reasonably requested by Holder to evidence and secure the Loan, as extended, and shall obtain and provide to Holder any title insurance policy or endorsement requested by Holder. If Holder elects to extend the term of the loan for the Extension Term, no Event of Default shall be deemed to exist solely by reason of the failure by Maker to pay such outstanding principal balance of this Note and all accrued interest and other charges due hereunder, and all other amounts due under the Loan Documents, on the Maturity Date.
(b) Should Holder elect to extend the term of the Loan as provided above, Holder shall: (i) reset the interest rate borne by the then-existing principal balance of the Loan to a rate per annum (the New Rate ) equal to the greater of (A) the Original Interest Rate, or (B) Holders (or comparable lenders, if Holder is no longer making such loans) then-prevailing interest rate for five (5) year loans secured by properties similar to the Property (hereinafter defined), as determined by Holder in its sole discretion; (ii) re-amortize the then-existing principal balance of the Loan over the Amortization Period; (iii) have the right to require Maker to enter into modifications of the non-economic terms of the Loan Documents as Holder may request (the Non-Economic Modifications ); and (iv) notwithstanding any provision set forth in the Loan Documents to the contrary, have the right to require Maker to make monthly payments into escrow for insurance premiums and real property taxes, assessments and similar governmental charges. Hence, monthly principal and interest payments during the Extension Term shall be based upon the New Rate, in an amount that would be sufficient to fully amortize the outstanding principal balance of the Loan over the Amortization Period.
(c) If Holder elects to extend the term of the Loan, Holder shall advise Maker of the New Rate on or prior to the Maturity Date, but in no event shall the term be extended unless Holder is entitled to do so under Section 2(a) above.
(d) In addition to the required monthly payments of principal and interest set forth above, commencing on the first day of the second month following the Maturity Date and continuing on the first day of each month thereafter during the Extension Term (each an Additional Payment Date ), Maker shall make monthly payments to Holder in an
amount equal to all Net Operating Income (hereinafter defined) attributable to the Property for the calendar month ending on the last day of the month that is two months preceding each such Additional Payment Date. For example, assuming the Maturity Date is January 1, then Net Operating Income for the period from January 1 through January 31 shall be payable to Holder on March 1; Net Operating Income for the period from February 1 through February 28 shall be payable to Holder on April 1, and so on.
(e) Holder shall deposit all such Net Operating Income received from Maker into an account or accounts maintained at a financial institution chosen by Holder or its Servicer in its sole discretion (the Deposit Account ) and all such funds shall be invested in a manner acceptable to Holder in its sole discretion. All interest, dividends and earnings credited to the Deposit Account shall be held and applied in accordance with the terms hereof.
(f) On the third Additional Payment Date and on each third Additional Payment Date thereafter, Holder shall apply all Excess Funds (hereinafter defined), if any, to prepayment of amounts due under this Note, without premium or penalty.
(g) As security for the repayment of the Loan and the performance of all other obligations of Maker under the Loan Documents, Maker hereby assigns, pledges, conveys, delivers, transfers and grants to Holder a first priority security interest in and to: (i) all Makers right, title and interest in and to the Deposit Account; (ii) all rights to payment from the Deposit Account and the money deposited therein or credited thereto (whether then due or in the future due and whether then or in the future on deposit); (iii) all interest thereon; (iv) any certificates, instruments and securities, if any, representing the Deposit Account; (v) all claims, demands, general intangibles, choses in action and other rights or interests of Maker in respect of the Deposit Account; (vi) any monies then or at any time thereafter deposited therein; and (vii) any increases, renewals, extensions, substitutions and replacements thereof and all proceeds of the foregoing.
(h) From time to time, but not more frequently than monthly, Maker may request a disbursement (a Disbursement ) from the Deposit Account for capital expenses, tenant improvement expenses, leasing commissions and special contingency expenses. Holder may consent to or deny any such Disbursement in its sole discretion.
(i) During the existence of an Event of Default (hereinafter defined), (i) Maker shall not be entitled to any Disbursement from the Deposit Account and (ii) Holder shall be entitled to take immediate possession and control of the Deposit Account (and all funds contained therein) and to pursue all of its rights and remedies available to Holder under the Loan Documents, at law and in equity.
(j) All of the terms and conditions of the Loan shall apply during the Extension Term, except as expressly set forth above, and except that no further extensions of the Loan shall be permitted.
(k) For the purposes of the foregoing:
(i) Excess Funds shall mean, on any Additional Payment Date, the amount of funds then existing in the Deposit Account (including any
Net Operating Income due on the applicable Additional Payment Date), less an amount equal to the sum of three regularly scheduled payments of principal and interest due on this Note;
(ii) Net Operating Income shall mean, for any particular period of time, Gross Revenue for the relevant period, less Operating Expenses for the relevant period; provided, however, that if such amount is equal to or less than zero (0), Net Operating Income shall equal zero (0);
(iii) Gross Revenue shall mean all payments and other revenues (exclusive, however, of any payments attributable to sales taxes) received by or on behalf of Maker from all sources related to the ownership or operation of the Property, including, but not limited to, rents, room charges, parking fees, interest, security deposits (unless required to be held in a segregated account), business interruption insurance proceeds, operating expense pass-through revenues, direct expense reimbursements and common area maintenance charges, for the relevant period for which the calculation of Gross Revenue is being made; and
(iv) Operating Expenses shall mean the sum of all ordinary and necessary operating expenses actually paid by Maker in connection with the operation of the Property during the relevant period for which the calculation of Operating Expenses is being made, including, but not limited to, (a) payments made by Maker for taxes and insurance required under the Loan Documents and (b) monthly debt service payments as required under this Note.
3. Budgets During Extension Term .
(a) Within fifteen (15) Business Days (as defined below) following the Maturity Date and on or before December 1 of each subsequent calendar year, Maker shall deliver to Holder a proposed revenue and expense budget for the Property for the remainder of the calendar year in which the Maturity Date occurs or the immediately succeeding calendar year (as applicable). Such budget shall set forth Makers projection of Gross Revenue and Operating Expenses for the applicable calendar year, which shall be subject to Holders reasonable approval. Once a proposed budget has been reviewed and approved by Holder, and Maker has made all revisions requested by Holder, if any, the revised budget shall be delivered to Holder and shall thereafter become the budget for the Property hereunder (any such budget referred to as the Budget) for the applicable calendar year. If Maker and Holder are unable to agree upon a Budget for any calendar year, the budgeted Operating Expenses (excluding extraordinary items) provided in the Budget for the Property for the preceding calendar year shall be considered the Budget for the Property for the subject calendar year until Maker and Holder agree upon a new Budget for such calendar year.
(b) During the Extension Term, Maker shall operate the Property in accordance with the applicable Budget for the applicable calendar year, and the total of expenditures relating to the Property exceeding one hundred and five percent (105%) of the aggregate of such expenses set forth in the applicable Budget for the applicable time period shall not be treated as Operating Expenses for the purposes of calculating Net Operating Income, without the prior written consent of Holder except for emergency expenditures which, in Makers
good faith judgment, are reasonably necessary to protect, or avoid immediate danger to, life or property.
4. Reports During Extension Term .
(a) During the Extension Term, Maker shall deliver to Holder all financial statements reasonably required by Holder to calculate Net Operating Income, including, without limitation, a monthly statement to be delivered to Holder concurrently with Makers payment of Net Operating Income that sets forth the amount of Net Operating Income accompanying such statement and Makers calculation of Net Operating Income for the relevant calendar month. Such statements shall be certified by an executive officer of Maker or Makers manager, managing member or general partner (as applicable) as having been prepared in accordance with the terms hereof and to be true, accurate and complete in all material respects.
(b) In addition, on or before February 1 of each calendar year during the Extension Term, Maker shall submit to Holder an annual income and expense statement for the Property which shall include the calculation of Gross Revenue, Operating Expenses and Net Operating Income for the preceding calendar year and shall be accompanied by Makers reconciliation of any difference between the actual aggregate amount of the Net Operating Income for such calendar year and the aggregate amount of Net Operating Income for such calendar year actually remitted to Holder. All such statements shall be certified by an executive officer of Maker or Makers manager, managing member or general partner (as applicable) as having been prepared in accordance with the terms hereof and to be true, accurate and complete in all material respects. If any such annual financial statement discloses any inconsistency between the calculation of Net Operating Income and the amount of Net Operating Income actually remitted to Holder, Maker shall immediately remit to Holder the amount of any underpayment of Net Operating Income for such calendar year or, in the event of an overpayment by Maker, such amount may be withheld from any subsequent payment of Net Operating Income required hereunder.
(c) Holder may notify Maker within ninety (90) days after receipt of any statement or report required hereunder that Holder disputes any computation or item contained in any portion of such statement or report. If Holder so notifies Maker, Holder and Maker shall meet in good faith within twenty (20) days after Holders notice to Maker to resolve such disputed items. If, despite such good faith efforts, the parties are unable to resolve the dispute at such meeting or within ten (10) days thereafter, the items shall be resolved by an independent certified public accountant designated by Holder within fifteen (15) days after such ten (10) day period. The determination of such accountant shall be final. All fees of such accountant shall be paid by Maker. Maker shall remit to Holder any additional amount of Net Operating Income found to be due for such periods within ten (10) days after the resolution of such dispute by the parties or the accountants determination, as applicable. The amount of any overpayment found to have been made for such periods may be withheld from any required future remittance of Net Operating Income.
(d) Maker shall at all times keep and maintain full and accurate books of account and records adequate to reflect correctly all items required in order to calculate Net Operating Income.
5. Prepayment
(a) Maker shall have no right to prepay all or any part of this Note prior to the date that is the last day of the forty-second (42) month following the date of this Note (the Lockout Expiration Date ).
(b) At any time following the Lockout Expiration Date, Maker shall have the right to prepay the full principal amount of this Note, and all other amounts due under this Note and the other Loan Documents, and all accrued but unpaid interest thereon as of the date of prepayment, provided that (i) Maker gives not less than thirty (30) days prior written notice to Holder of Makers election to prepay this Note, (ii) Maker pays a prepayment premium to Holder equal to the greater of (A) one percent (1%) of the outstanding principal amount of this Note or (B) the Present Value of this Note (hereinafter defined), less the amount of principal being prepaid, calculated as of the prepayment date and (iii) Maker prepays each of the other Additional Notes (as such term is defined in the Mortgage) and all other amounts due under the Additional Notes and the other Additional Loan Documents (as such term is defined in the Mortgage), and all accrued but unpaid interest thereon as of the date of prepayment.
(c) Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 5, no prepayment premium shall be due (i) in connection with any involuntary prepayment due to the Holders application of any insurance proceeds or condemnation awards to the principal balance of the Loan or (ii) if Maker provides additional funds to prepay the Loan in connection with the application of any insurance proceeds or condemnation awards to the principal balance of the Loan following any casualty or condemnation; provided, in any such case, that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such application of insurance proceeds or condemnation awards.
(d) Holder shall notify Maker in writing of the amount and basis of determination of the prepayment premium. Holder shall not be obligated to accept any prepayment of the principal balance of this Note unless such prepayment is accompanied by (i) the applicable prepayment premium, (ii) the outstanding principal balance of the Loan, (iii) all accrued interest and other sums due under this Note and all other amounts due under the Loan Documents and (iv) the outstanding principal balance of the Additional Loans (as such term is defined in the Mortgage) all accrued interest and other sums due under the Additional Notes and all other amounts due under the Additional Loan Documents. Maker may not prepay the Loan on a Friday, nor on any public holiday or the equivalent for banks generally under the laws of the State of New York or on any day preceding a public holiday, or the equivalent for banks generally under the laws of the State of New York.
(e) Except for making payments of Net Operating Income as required above, and except for the application of insurance proceeds or condemnation awards to the principal balance of this Note, as provided in the Mortgage (hereinafter defined), in no event shall Maker be permitted to make any partial prepayments of this Note.
(f) If Holder accelerates this Note for any reason, then in addition to Makers obligation to pay the then outstanding principal balance of this Note and all accrued but unpaid interest thereon, Maker shall pay an additional amount equal to the prepayment premium that would be due to Holder if Maker were voluntarily prepaying this Note at the time
that such acceleration occurred, or if under the terms hereof no voluntary prepayment would be permissible on the date of such acceleration, Maker shall pay a prepayment premium equal to 150% of the highest prepayment premium set forth in this Note, calculated as of the date of such acceleration as if prepayment were permitted on such date.
(g) For the purposes of the foregoing:
(i) The Present Value of this Note with respect to any prepayment of this Note, as of any date, shall be determined by discounting all scheduled payments of principal and interest remaining to maturity of this Note, attributed to the amount being prepaid, at the Discount Rate. If prepayment occurs on a date other than a Payment Date, the actual number of days remaining from the prepayment date to the next Payment Date will be used to calculate such discount within such period;
(ii) The Discount Rate is the rate which, when compounded monthly, is equivalent to the Treasury Rate, when compounded semi-annually;
(iii) The Treasury Rate is the semi-annual yield on the Treasury Constant Maturity Series with maturity equal to the remaining weighted average life of this Note, for the week prior to the prepayment date, as reported in Federal Reserve Statistical Release H. 15 - Selected Interest Rates, conclusively determined by Holder on the prepayment date. The rate will be determined by linear interpolation between the yields reported in Release H.15, if necessary. In the event Release H.15 is no longer published, Holder shall select a comparable publication to determine the Treasury Rate.
(h) Holder shall not be obligated actually to reinvest the amount prepaid in any treasury obligations as a condition precedent to receiving any prepayment premium.
(i) Notwithstanding the foregoing, (A) at any time during the Extension Term, Maker shall have the right to prepay in full, but not in part, the principal amount of this Note and all accrued but unpaid interest thereon as of the date of prepayment, without prepayment premium thereon and (B) no prepayment premium shall be due in connection with the prepayment of the full principal amount of this Note, and all other amounts due under this Note and the other Loan Documents, and all accrued but unpaid interest thereon as of the date of prepayment, during the ninety (90) day period prior to the Maturity Date.
6. Payments . Whenever any payment to be made under this Note shall be stated to be due on a Saturday, Sunday or public holiday or the equivalent for banks generally under the laws of the State of New York (any other day being a Business Day ), such payment may be made on the next succeeding Business Day.
7. Default Rate .
(a) The entire balance of principal, interest, and any other sums due under this Note and the other Loan Documents upon the maturity hereof, by acceleration or otherwise, shall bear interest from the date due until paid at the greater of (i) eighteen percent (18%) per annum and (ii) a per annum rate equal to four percent (4%) over the prime rate published
in The Wall Street Journal on the first business day of each month (the Default Rate ); provided, however, that such rate shall not exceed the maximum permitted by applicable state or federal law. In the event The Wall Street Journal is no longer published or no longer publishes such prime rate, Holder shall select a comparable reference.
(b) If any payment under this Note or any of the Additional Notes is not made when due, interest shall accrue at the Default Rate from the date such payment was due until payment is actually made.
8. Late Charges . In addition to interest as set forth herein, Maker shall pay to Holder a late charge equal to four percent (4%) of any amounts due under this Note in the event any such amount is not paid when due. Notwithstanding the foregoing provision, Holder will allow for one (1) five (5) day grace period upon monetary default without the obligation of paying a late charge in any twelve (12) month period during the term of the Loan.
9. Application of Payments . All payments hereunder shall be applied in the following order: (i) first, to the payment of late charges, if any; (ii) second, to the payment of prepayment premiums, if any; (iii) third, to the repayment of any sums advanced by Holder for the payment of any insurance premiums, taxes, assessments or other charges against the Property securing this Note and any other costs and expenses incurred by Holder in accordance with the Loan Documents (together with interest thereon at the Default Rate from the date of advance until repaid), if any; (iv) fourth, to the payment of accrued and unpaid interest and other amounts due and payable under the Loan Documents (other than principal), if any; and (v) fifth, to the reduction of principal. Notwithstanding the foregoing, for so long as any Event of Default is continuing, Holder shall have the continuing right to apply any payment received by Holder from or on behalf of Maker as Holder may elect against the due and owing obligations of Maker under the Note and the other Loan Documents in such order of priority or in such allocations as Holder may deem advisable in its sole and absolute discretion.
10. Immediately Available Funds . All payments under this Note shall be payable in immediately available funds without setoff, counterclaim or deduction of any kind, and shall be made by electronic funds transfer from a bank account established and maintained by Maker for such purpose.
11. Security . This Note is secured by, among other things, (i) that certain (a) Open-End Mortgage, Assignment of Leases and Rents, Security Agreement and Fixture Filing, of even date herewith, granted by Maker for the benefit of Holder (the Mortgage ) encumbering certain real property and improvements located at 950 Bridgeport Avenue, Milford, Connecticut 06460, as more particularly described in the Mortgage (the Property ), (ii) a Guaranty Agreement from Paul Cooper, Jeffrey Ravetz and Louis Sheinker (collectively, Guarantors ), in favor of Holder (the Guaranty ) and (iii) the Affiliate Guaranty (as such term is defined in the Mortgage).
12. Certain Definitions . Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings set forth in the Mortgage.
13. Event of Default . Each of the following events will constitute an event of default (an Event of Default ) under this Note and under the Mortgage and each other
document evidencing or securing or executed in connection with the Loan (collectively, the Loan Documents ), and any Event of Default under any Loan Document shall constitute an Event of Default hereunder and under each of the other Loan Documents:
(a) any failure to pay when due any interest, principal or other amount in a sum certain under this Note or under any of the other Loan Documents for which sum there is a scheduled date for payment or for which there is a date certain for payment.
(b) any failure to pay within ten (10) days following demand by Holder for any amount other than any amount described in Section 13(a) above; or
(c) any failure of Maker to properly perform any obligation contained herein or in any of the other Loan Documents (other than the obligation to make payments under this Note or the other Loan Documents) and the continuance of such failure for a period of thirty (30) days following written notice thereof from Holder to Maker; provided, however, that if such failure is not curable within such thirty (30) day period, then, so long as Maker commences to cure such failure within such thirty (30) day period and is continually and diligently attempting to cure to completion, such failure shall not be an Event of Default unless such failure remains uncured for one hundred twenty (120) days after such written notice to Maker; or
(d) if, at any time during the Extension Term, Gross Revenue for any calendar month shall be less than ninety-three percent (93%) of the amount of projected Gross Revenue for such month set forth in the applicable Budget; or
(e) the occurrence of any event that is deemed to be an Event of Default under any provision of this Note, the Mortgage, the Affiliate Guaranty any other Loan Document or any Additional Loan Document.
14. Acceleration . If at any time an Event of Default exists, the entire balance of principal, accrued interest and other sums owing hereunder shall, at the option of Holder, become at once due and payable without notice or demand. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default described in Section 13(d) hereof, Holder shall have the option, in its sole and absolute discretion, to either (a) exercise any remedies available to Holder under the Loan Documents, at law or in equity, or (b) require Maker to submit a new proposed budget for Holders approval. If Holder agrees to accept such new proposed budget, then such budget shall become the Budget for all purposes hereunder. If an Event of Default exists, Holder may exercise any right, power or remedy permitted by law or set forth herein or in the Mortgage or any other Loan Document.
15. Conditions Precedent . Maker hereby certifies and declares that all acts, conditions and things required to be done or performed or have happened precedent to the creation and issuance of this Note, and in order to constitute this Note the legal, valid and binding obligation of Maker, enforceable in accordance with the terms hereof, have been done or performed or have happened in due and strict compliance with all applicable laws.
16. Certain Waivers and Consents . Maker and all parties now or hereafter liable for the payment hereof, primarily or secondarily, directly or indirectly, and
whether as endorser, guarantor, surety, or otherwise, hereby severally (a) waive presentment, demand, protest, notice of protest and/or dishonor, and all other demands or notices of any sort whatever with respect to this Note, (b) consent to impairment or release of collateral, extensions of time for payment, and acceptance of partial payments before, at, or after maturity, (c) waive any right to require Holder to proceed against any security for this Note before proceeding hereunder, (d) waive diligence in the collection of this Note or in filing suit on this Note and (e) agree to pay all out-of-pocket costs and expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys fees, which may be actually incurred in the collection of this Note or any part thereof or in preserving, securing possession of and realizing upon any security for this Note.
17. Usury Savings Clause . The provisions of this Note and of all agreements between Maker and Holder are, whether now existing or hereinafter made, hereby expressly limited so that in no contingency or event whatsoever, whether by reason of acceleration of the maturity hereof, prepayment, demand for payment or otherwise, shall the amount paid, or agreed to be paid, to Holder for the use, forbearance or detention of the principal hereof or interest hereon, which remains unpaid from time to time, exceed the maximum amount permissible under applicable law. In particular, it is the intention of the parties hereto to conform strictly to Connecticut and Federal law, whichever is applicable. If as a result of any circumstance whatsoever, the performance or fulfillment of any provision hereof or of any other agreement between Maker and Holder pertaining to the subject matter hereof shall, at the time performance or fulfillment of such provision is due, involve or purport to require any payment in excess of the limits then prescribed by applicable law, then the obligation to be performed or fulfilled shall hereby be reduced to such limit as to be valid under such applicable law, and if as a result of any circumstance whatsoever, Holder should receive as interest under this Note an amount which would exceed the then highest lawful rate, the amount by which such interest payment would exceed such highest lawful rate shall be applied to the reduction of the principal balance owing hereunder without prepayment or penalty (or, at Holders option, be paid to Maker) and in no event shall be counted as interest. To the fullest extent permitted by then applicable law, the determination of the legal maximum amount of interest shall at any and all times be made by amortizing, prorating, allocating and spreading in equal parts over the period of the full stated term of this Note, all interest at any time contracted for, charged or received from Maker in connection with this Note and all other agreements between Maker and Holder pertaining to the subject matter hereof, so that the actual rate of interest on account of the indebtedness represented by this Note is uniform throughout the term hereof and complies with all applicable law.
18. Non-Recourse; Exceptions to Non-Recourse .
(a) Nothing contained in the Loan Documents shall be deemed to impair, limit or prejudice Holders rights in foreclosure proceedings or in any ancillary proceedings brought to facilitate Holders foreclosure on the Property or any portion thereof or to exercise any specific rights or remedies afforded Holder under any other provisions of the Loan Documents or by law or in equity, subject to the non-recourse provisions set forth below, to recover under any guarantee given in connection with the Loan or to pursue any personal liability of Maker or any Guarantor under the Guaranty Agreement, the Environmental Indemnity Agreement or the ERISA indemnity provisions of the Mortgage. Except as expressly hereinafter set forth, the recourse of Holder with respect to the obligations evidenced by this Note, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents (except for the Guaranty and the Environmental
Indemnity Agreement) shall be solely to the Property, Chattels and Intangible Personalty (as such terms are defined in the Mortgage). Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary contained in this Note, the Mortgage or in any other Loan Document, nothing shall be deemed in any way to impair, limit or prejudice the rights of Holder to collect or recover from Maker (but not any member, manager, officer, director or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing, with the exclusion of the Guarantors) and Guarantors: (i) damages or costs (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys fees) incurred by Holder as a result of any intentional waste by Maker; (ii) any condemnation award or insurance proceeds attributable to the Property which were not paid to Holder or used to restore the Property in accordance with the terms of the Mortgage; (iii) any Rents, profits, security deposits, advances, rebates, prepaid rents or other similar sums attributable to the Property collected by or for Maker (x) following an Event of Default under any Loan Document and not properly applied to the reasonable fixed and operating expenses of the Property, including, without limitation, payments due on this Note and other sums due under the Loan Documents or (y) to the extent not deposited into the Lockbox Account; (iv) any security deposits collected by or for Maker and not applied in accordance with the applicable Leases (as such term is defined in the Mortgage); (v) the amount of any accrued taxes, assessments, and/or utility charges affecting the Property (whether or not the same have been billed to Maker) that are either unpaid by Maker or advanced by Holder under the Mortgage, except, in respect of the Property, to the extent of any of the foregoing accruing after the Termination Date (as hereinafter defined) with respect to the Property; (vi) any sums expended by Holder in fulfilling the obligations of Maker, as lessor, under any Lease affecting the Property; (vii) the amount of any loss suffered by Holder (that would otherwise be covered by insurance and available to Holder in accordance with the Loan Documents) as a result of Makers failure to maintain any insurance required under the terms of any Loan Document; and (viii) losses, damages and costs (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys fees) incurred by Holder as a result of any fraud of material misrepresentation by Maker in connection with the Property or any of the Loan Documents. For the avoidance of doubt, the matters set forth in this paragraph (a) shall be fully recourse to Maker (but not any member, manager, officer, director or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing, with the exclusion of the Guarantors) and Guarantor. For the purposes of this Section 18(a), the Termination Date is, in respect of the Property, the earliest of (x) the date that Maker tenders to Holder or Holders designee a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure in respect of the Property, subject to no title exceptions other than real estate taxes and assessments, the Permitted Exceptions (as defined in the applicable Mortgage) and such additional exceptions approved by Holder pursuant to the Loan Documents or which are otherwise acceptable to Holder in its reasonable discretion, together with such ancillary conveyances, releases and other documentation that are customarily delivered in connection with a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure transaction, all in form reasonably satisfactory to Holder, and such deed-in-lieu of foreclosure is accepted by Holder in its sole discretion (y) the date that Maker tenders to Holder a stipulation to entry of judgment of foreclosure in respect of the Property, and (z) the date Holder, any Affiliate of Holder, or any other party takes title to the Property in connection with a foreclosure of the applicable Mortgage that encumbers the Property. If Maker elects to deliver a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure in respect of the Property, Holder shall retain the right to determine whether to accept such deed-in-lieu of foreclosure or to proceed with foreclosure proceedings and, upon Holder making such election, Maker shall execute and deliver to Holder an appropriate deed-in-lieu of foreclosure in respect of the Property, as Holder shall have elected; provided, however, that if Holder chooses to proceed with foreclosure proceedings in respect of the Property, the Termination Date shall nonetheless be the earliest of the date specified in clause (x), (y) and (z) above, provided further that if Maker thereafter fails to cooperate with
Holder in respect of Holders exercise of any and all remedies available at law or in equity to Holder (including, without limitation, foreclosure), then the Termination Date shall be the earlier of the date specified in clause (y) or (z) above.
(b) The agreement contained in this Section 18 to limit the personal liability of Maker to its interest in the Property, Chattels and Intangible Personalty shall become null and void and be of no further force and effect, and Maker (but not any member, manager, officer, director or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing, with the exclusion of the Guarantors) and Guarantors shall be personally liable for the repayment of the Secured Obligations (as such term is defined in the Mortgage) in the event (i) that the Property, or any part thereof or any interest therein, or any interest in Maker, or any of them, shall be further encumbered by a voluntary lien securing any obligation upon which Maker, or any of them, any direct or indirect general partner, manager or managing member such Maker, any Guarantor, any of the Mortgagor Control Persons (as defined in the Mortgage) or any principal or affiliate of Maker, or any of them, shall be personally liable for repayment, either as obligor or guarantor, (ii) of any breach or violation of Section 5 . 4, 5 . 5 or 5 . 7 of the Mortgage, (iii) that Maker forfeits the Property or the Chattels or any portion of the Property or Chattels due to criminal activity, (iv) any attempt by Maker, any Guarantor or any Mortgagor Owner Person (as defined in the Mortgage) to materially delay any foreclosure against the Property, Chattels and/or Intangible Personalty, or any portion of the Property, the Chattels and/or the Intangible Personalty or any other exercise by Holder of its remedies under the Loan Documents, which attempts shall (x) include, without limitation, (A) any claim made by Maker that any Loan Document is invalid or unenforceable to an extent that would preclude any such foreclosure or other exercise of remedies, (B) Maker filing a petition in bankruptcy, Maker acquiescing in an involuntary bankruptcy proceeding, Maker failing to oppose in good faith the entry of an order for relief pursuant to any involuntary bankruptcy filed against it, or Maker filing a petition or answer seeking any reorganization, arrangement, composition, readjustment, liquidation, dissolution or similar relief under the bankruptcy laws of the United States or under any other similar federal, state or other statute relating to relief from indebtedness (whether filed by or against Maker), or (C) the appointment of a receiver, trustee or liquidator by Maker, any Guarantor or any Mortgagor Owner Person with respect to Maker or the Property or any part thereof and (y) shall not include a defense to a foreclosure that is (A) not frivolous and is advanced in good faith and (B) based upon a default by Holder under terms of the Loan Documents, or (v) any execution, amendment, modification or early termination of any Lease of any Required Tenant made in violation of the Loan Documents. For the avoidance of doubt, no such termination of any Lease shall excuse Maker from the performance of its obligations under the Loan Documents. For purposes of the foregoing, affiliate shall have the meaning ascribed to the term Affiliate in the Mortgage.
19. Severability . If any provision hereof or of any other document securing or otherwise related to the indebtedness evidenced hereby is, for any reason and to any extent, deemed invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction or with respect to any person, entity or circumstances, then neither the remainder of the document in which such provision is contained, nor the application of such provision in respect of other persons, entities, or circumstances, nor any other document referred to herein, shall be affected by such invalidity or lack of enforceability, but, instead, shall be enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by law.
20. Transfer of Note . Each provision of this Note shall be and remain in full force and effect notwithstanding any negotiation or transfer hereof and any interest herein to any other Holder or participant.
21. Governing Law . Regardless of the place of its execution, this Note shall be construed and enforced in accordance with the substantive laws of the State of Connecticut.
22. Time of Essence . Time is of the essence of this Note.
23. Remedies Cumulative . The remedies provided to Holder in this Note, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents are cumulative and concurrent and may be exercised singly, successively or jointly against Maker, the Property, and other security, or against Guarantors or any obligor under, or guarantor of, this Note or the other Loan Documents, at the sole and absolute discretion of Holder.
24. No Waiver . Holder shall not by any act or omission be deemed to have waived any of its rights or remedies hereunder unless such waiver is in writing and signed by Holder and then only to the extent specifically set forth therein. A waiver of one event shall not be construed as continuing or as a bar to or waiver of any right or remedy granted to Holder hereunder in connection with a subsequent event.
25. Joint and Several Obligation . If Maker is more than one person or entity, then: (a) all persons or entities comprising Maker are jointly and severally liable for all of Makers obligations hereunder; (b) all representations, warranties and covenants made by Maker shall be deemed representations, warranties and covenants of each of the persons or entities comprising Maker; (c) any breach, Default or Event of Default by any of the persons or entities comprising Maker hereunder shall be deemed to be a breach, Default or Event of Default of Maker; and (d) any reference herein contained to the knowledge or awareness of Maker shall mean the knowledge or awareness of any of the persons or entities comprising Maker.
26. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL . MAKER AND HOLDER KNOWINGLY, IRREVOCABLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT EITHER MAKER OR HOLDER MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM BASED ON THIS NOTE, OR ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS NOTE, THE MORTGAGE, OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS OR ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT, COURSE OF DEALING, STATEMENT (WHETHER VERBAL OR WRITTEN) OR ACTIONS OF ANY PARTY HERETO OR TO ANY LOAN DOCUMENT. THIS PROVISION IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR MAKER AND HOLDER TO ENTER INTO THE LOAN TRANSACTION EVIDENCED BY THIS NOTE.
27. WAIVER OF PREPAYMENT RIGHT WITHOUT PREMIUM . EXCEPT AS EXPLICITLY SET FORTH HEREIN, MAKER HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE UNDER APPLICABLE LAW TO PREPAY THIS NOTE, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, WITHOUT PREPAYMENT PREMIUM, UPON ACCELERATION OF THE MATURITY DATE OF THIS NOTE, AND AGREES THAT, IF FOR ANY REASON A PREPAYMENT OF ALL OR ANY PART OF THIS NOTE IS MADE, WHETHER
VOLUNTARILY OR FOLLOWING ANY ACCELERATION OF THE MATURITY DATE OF THIS NOTE BY HOLDER ON ACCOUNT OF THE OCCURRENCE OF ANY EVENT OF DEFAULT ARISING FOR ANY REASON, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, AS A RESULT OF ANY PROHIBITED OR RESTRICTED TRANSFER, FURTHER ENCUMBRANCE OR DISPOSITION OF THE PROPERTY OR ANY PART THEREOF SECURING THIS NOTE, THEN MAKER SHALL BE OBLIGATED TO PAY, CONCURRENTLY WITH SUCH PREPAYMENT, THE PREPAYMENT PREMIUM PROVIDED FOR IN THIS NOTE OR, IN THE EVENT OF PREPAYMENT FOLLOWING ACCELERATION OF THE MATURITY DATE HEREOF WHEN THIS NOTE IS CLOSED TO PREPAYMENT, AS PROVIDED HEREIN AND IN THE MORTGAGE. MAKER HEREBY DECLARES THAT HOLDERS AGREEMENT TO MAKE THE LOAN AT THE INTEREST RATE AND FOR THE TERM SET FORTH IN THIS NOTE CONSTITUTES ADEQUATE CONSIDERATION, GIVEN INDIVIDUAL WEIGHT BY MAKER, FOR THIS WAIVER AND AGREEMENT.

4.2 Performance of Other Obligations. Mortgagor shall promptly perform and comply with all other covenants, conditions and prohibitions required of Mortgagor by the terms of the Loan Documents.
4.3 Other Encumbrances. Mortgagor shall promptly perform and comply, in all material respects, with all covenants, conditions and prohibitions required of Mortgagor in connection with any Access Agreement and any other encumbrance affecting the Property, the Chattels or the Intangible Personalty, or any part thereof, or any interest therein, regardless of whether such other encumbrance is superior or subordinate to the lien hereof.
4.4 Payment of Taxes.
(a) Property Taxes . Unless Mortgagor is depositing money into escrow pursuant to Section 4.4(b) , Mortgagor shall (i) pay, before delinquency and before the imposition of any penalty or interest, all taxes and assessments, general or special, which may be levied or imposed at any time against Mortgagors interest and estate in the Property, the Chattels or the Intangible Personalty, and (ii) within ten (10) days after each payment of any such tax or assessment, Mortgagor will deliver to Mortgagee, without notice or demand, an official receipt for such payment. Unless Taxes are being paid by Mortgagee, Mortgagor shall provide Mortgagee with reasonably satisfactory evidence of the payment of all such taxes and assessments, general or special, which may be levied or imposed at any time against Mortgagors interest and estate in the Property, the Chattels or the Intangible Personalty within ten (10) days following any such payment.
(b) Deposit for Taxes . On the date hereof, Mortgagor shall deposit with Mortgagee an amount equal to 1/12th of the amount which Mortgagee estimates will be required to make the next annual payment of taxes, assessments and similar governmental charges referred to in this Section, multiplied by the number of whole or partial months that have elapsed since the date one month prior to the most recent due date for such taxes, assessments and similar governmental charges. Thereafter, with each monthly payment under the Note, Mortgagor shall deposit with Mortgagee an amount equal to 1/12th of the amount which Mortgagee estimates will be required to pay the next annual payment of taxes, assessments and similar governmental charges referred to in this Section. The purpose of these provisions is to provide Mortgagee with sufficient funds on hand to pay all such taxes, assessments and other governmental charges thirty (30) days before the date on which they become past due. If Mortgagee, in its sole discretion, determines that the funds escrowed hereunder are, or will be, insufficient, Mortgagor shall upon demand pay such additional sums as Mortgagee shall determine necessary and shall pay any increased monthly charges requested by Mortgagee. Provided no Event of Default exists hereunder, Mortgagee will apply the amounts so deposited to the payment of such taxes, assessments and other charges when due, but in no event will Mortgagee be liable for any interest on any amount so deposited, and any amount so deposited may be held and commingled with Mortgagees own funds.
(c) Intangible Taxes . If by reason of any statutory or constitutional amendment or judicial decision adopted or rendered after the date hereof, any tax, assessment or similar charge is imposed against the Note, Mortgagee, or any interest of Mortgagee in any real or personal property encumbered hereby, Mortgagor will pay such tax, assessment or other charge before delinquency and will indemnify Mortgagee against all loss, expense or diminution of income in connection therewith.
In the event Mortgagor is unable to do so, either for economic reasons or because the legal provisions or decisions creating such tax, assessment or charge forbid Mortgagor from doing so, then the Note will, at Mortgagees option, become due and payable in full upon thirty (30) days notice to Mortgagor.
(d) Right to Contest . Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section, Mortgagor will not be deemed to be in default solely by reason of Mortgagors failure to pay any tax, assessment or similar governmental charge so long as, in Mortgagees judgment, each of the following conditions is satisfied:
(i) Mortgagor is engaged in and diligently pursuing in good faith administrative or judicial proceedings appropriate to contest the validity or amount of such tax, assessment or charge;
(ii) Mortgagors payment of such tax, assessment or charge would necessarily and materially prejudice Mortgagors prospects for success in such proceedings;
(iii) Nonpayment of such tax, assessment, or charge will not result in the loss or forfeiture of any property encumbered hereby or any interest of Mortgagee therein; and
(iv) Mortgagor deposits with Mortgagee, as security for such payment which may ultimately be required, a sum equal to the amount of the disputed tax, assessment or charge plus the interest, penalties, advertising charges and other costs which Mortgagee estimates are likely to become payable if Mortgagors contest is unsuccessful. For the avoidance of doubt, the funds required to be deposited with Mortgagee under this paragraph (iv) shall be in addition to all taxes, assessments and other governmental charges that are not being contested and that are subject to the deposit provisions of Section 4.4(b) hereof.
If Mortgagee determines that any one or more of such conditions is not satisfied or is no longer satisfied, Mortgagor will pay the tax, assessment or charge in question, together with any interest and penalties thereon, within ten (10) days after Mortgagee gives notice of such determination.
4.5 Maintenance of Insurance.
(a) Coverages Required . Mortgagor shall maintain or cause to be maintained, with financially sound and reputable insurance companies or associations satisfactory to Mortgagee, all insurance required under the terms of the Insurance Agreement, and shall comply with each and every covenant and agreement contained in such Insurance Agreement. Mortgagor shall provide Mortgagee with reasonably satisfactory evidence of the payment of the premiums of all such insurance within five (5) business days following the any such payment.
(b) Renewal Policies . Not less than thirty (30) days prior to the expiration date of each insurance policy required pursuant to the Insurance Agreement, Mortgagor will deliver to Mortgagee either an appropriate renewal policy (or a certified copy thereof), together with evidence satisfactory to Mortgagee that the applicable premium has been prepaid.
(c) Deposit for Premiums . If an Event of Default exists or if Mortgagor shall fail to provide Mortgagee with evidence of insurance as and when required under this Mortgage and the Insurance Agreement, Mortgagor shall deposit with Mortgagee an amount equal to 1/12th of the amount which Mortgagee estimates will be required to make the next annual payments of the premiums for the policies of insurance referred to in this Section, multiplied by the number of whole and partial months which have elapsed since the date one month prior to the most recent policy anniversary date for each such policy. Thereafter, with each monthly payment under the Note, Mortgagor will deposit an amount equal to 1/12th of the amount which Mortgagee estimates will be required to pay the next required annual premium for each insurance policy referred to in this Section. The purpose of these provisions is to provide Mortgagee with sufficient funds on hand to pay all such premiums thirty (30) days before the date on which they become past due. If Mortgagee, in its sole discretion, determines that the funds escrowed hereunder are, or will be, insufficient, Mortgagor shall upon demand, pay such additional sums as Mortgagee shall determine as necessary and shall pay any increased monthly charges requested by Mortgagee. Provided no Event of Default exists hereunder, Mortgagee will apply the amounts so deposited to the payment of such insurance premiums when due, but in no event will Mortgagee be liable for any interest on any amounts so deposited, and the money so received may be held and commingled with Mortgagees own funds.
(d) Application of Hazard Insurance Proceeds . Mortgagor shall after learning thereof promptly notify Mortgagee of any damage or casualty to all or any portion of the Property or Chattels. Mortgagee may participate in all negotiations and appear and participate in all judicial or arbitration proceedings concerning any insurance proceeds which may be payable as a result of such casualty or damage, and may, in Mortgagees sole discretion, compromise or settle, in the names of both Mortgagor and Mortgagee, any claim for any such insurance proceeds; provided, however, that in any event any such compromise or settlement shall be subject to the prior consent of Mortgagee, which may be granted or withheld in Mortgagees discretion. Any such insurance proceeds shall be paid directly to Mortgagee and shall be applied first to reimburse Mortgagee for all out-of-pocket costs and expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys fees, actually incurred by Mortgagee in connection with the ascertainment and collection of such insurance proceeds. The balance, if any, of any insurance proceeds received by Mortgagee with respect to an insured damage or casualty shall, in Mortgagees sole discretion, either (i) be retained and applied by Mortgagee toward payment of the Secured Obligations, in such order and manner as Mortgagee deems appropriate, or (ii) be paid over, in whole or in part and subject to such conditions as Mortgagee may impose, to Mortgagor to pay for repairs or replacements necessitated by the damage or casualty; provided, however, that if all of the Secured Obligations have been performed or are discharged by the application of less than all of such insurance proceeds, then any remaining proceeds will be paid over to Mortgagor. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.5(d) , Mortgagee shall make any such insurance proceeds available to Mortgagor for restoration of the Property, provided, and on the following conditions: (A) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, (B) Mortgagor demonstrates to the reasonable satisfaction of Mortgagee that Mortgagor has the financial ability to pay all principal and interest required under the Note, and perform all of the other Secured Obligations, during the restoration of the Property from the proceeds of rent loss or business interruption insurance or otherwise, (C) the damage or casualty occurs prior to the last six (6) months of the term of the Loan and the restoration is capable of being completed prior to the stated maturity date of the Loan, (D) all insurance proceeds and other funds provided by Mortgagor for the restoration are released under escrow and construction funding arrangements reasonably satisfactory to Mortgagee, (E) the repair or restoration will return the Property to substantially the same size, design and utility as existed immediately prior to the damage or casualty, (F) in the event the proceeds of insurance are insufficient to pay by themselves for the restoration (as determined in good faith by Mortgagee), Mortgagor shall, prior to the commencement of any restoration work, deposit with Mortgagee within fifteen (15) days after the date on which the proceeds of insurance are received by Mortgagee such additional funds as in the good faith opinion of Mortgagee are necessary to complete the restoration; (G) Mortgagor undertakes and covenants and agrees (in writing) with Mortgagee to fund any and all deficiencies within fifteen (15) days after being notified in writing thereof and prior to the distribution of any further insurance proceeds, so that at all times the funds held by Mortgagee and remaining to be disbursed for purposes of the restoration shall be sufficient to complete the work; (H) the annual income from the Leases that are in existence as of the date hereof or executed in accordance with the provisions of this Mortgage and that will survive the restoration or repair of the Property produce a Debt Service Coverage Ratio of not less than 1.2 to 1.0, and Mortgagor demonstrates to Mortgagees reasonable satisfaction that Mortgagor will be able to attain Debt Service Coverage Ratio of at least 1.2 to 1.0 from Leases that are in existence as of the date hereof or executed in accordance with the provisions of this Mortgage within six (6) months after completion of the restoration; and (I) if any site plan amendment, variance, special use permit or other similar special approval or consent is required from any government authority or any other Person for such repair or restoration, Mortgagor shall obtain and deliver to Mortgagee such site plan amendment, variance, special use permit or other similar special approval or consent within one hundred eighty (180) days following such casualty or damage (but such one hundred eighty (180) day time period shall in all respects be subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.5(d) and shall not extend or otherwise modify any time periods in such foregoing provisions).
Mortgagee may, prior to the application of insurance proceeds, commingle them with Mortgagees own funds and otherwise act with regard to such proceeds as Mortgagee may determine in Mortgagees sole discretion. If Mortgagee applies the insurance proceeds to the Secured Obligations due to the failure of the conditions under clause (H) of this Section 4.5(d) to be satisfied, then Mortgagor may, upon written notice delivered to Mortgagee within thirty (30) days following such application of the insurance proceeds to the Secured Obligations, elect to prepay the full principal amount of the Loan and all other amounts due under the Loan Documents, together with all accrued but unpaid interest thereon, and all other Secured Obligations, without any prepayment premium or penalty, such prepayment to be made within one-hundred eighty (180) days following such application of the insurance proceeds; provided, however, that Mortgagor continues to pay and fulfill all of Mortgagors obligations under this Note, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents up to and including the date of such full prepayment. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.5 , in the event the insurance proceeds are less than $250,000 and there does not exist any Default or Event of Default, then (i) Mortgagor may compromise or settle the claim for such proceeds, (ii) the proceeds shall be paid directly to Mortgagor and (iii) Mortgagor shall undertake and complete the repair or restoration of the Property so as to return the Property to substantially the same size, design and utility as existed immediately prior to the damage or casualty and shall fund any deficiency in the event such proceeds are insufficient to complete such repair or restoration.
(e) Successors Rights . Any person who acquires title to the Property or the Chattels upon foreclosure hereunder will succeed to Mortgagors rights under all policies of insurance maintained pursuant to this Section.
4.6 Maintenance and Repair of the Property and Chattels; Contracts. Mortgagor shall at all times maintain the Property and the Chattels in good condition and repair, will diligently prosecute the completion of any building or other improvement which is at any time in the process of construction on the Property, and will promptly repair, restore, replace, or rebuild any part of the Property or the Chattels which may be affected by any casualty or any public or private taking or injury to the Property or the Chattels. All costs and expenses arising out of the foregoing shall be paid by Mortgagor whether or not the proceeds of any insurance or eminent domain shall be sufficient therefor. Mortgagor shall maintain access to and egress from the Property by public streets. Subject to the provisions of Section 4.15(b) , Mortgagor will comply with (or cause compliance with) all statutes, ordinances, and other governmental or quasi-governmental requirements and private covenants relating to the ownership, construction, use, or operation of the Property, including but not limited to, any zoning requirements, any environmental or ecological requirements and any requirements regarding access for persons with disabilities. Mortgagee and any Person authorized by Mortgagee may upon prior notice to Mortgagor enter and inspect the Property at all reasonable times, and may inspect the Chattels, wherever located, at all reasonable times. Mortgagor shall take all actions necessary or required under the Leases to effect the provisions of the immediately preceding sentence. Mortgagor shall maintain all public utility services (including, without limitation, water supply, storm and sanitary sewer facilities, and natural gas, electric, telephone, cable television and high speed Internet access facilities) necessary for the operation of the Property (including, without limitation, improvements constituting part of the Property) for its intended purposes, and, without limiting such maintenance requirement, shall maintain such services at the boundaries of the land constituting part of the Property. Mortgagor shall comply (or cause compliance with) with all requirements of any insurance company or inspection or rating bureau in respect of the Property, including, without limitation, any requirements for the continuation of any insurance coverage or the continuation thereof at premium rates.

Mortgagor and none of the Mortgagor Control Persons shall enter into any contract or agreement that contravenes any of the Loan Documents or which provides or has the effect that the performance of the Loan Documents constitutes a default under such contract or agreement or results in the creation of any lien, security interest, other charge or encumbrance upon or with respect to its properties. Mortgagor shall perform, observe and fulfill, in all material respects, and shall cause Guarantors to perform, observe and fulfill, in all material respects, all of the obligations, covenants and conditions set forth in any agreement or instrument to which Mortgagor or Guarantors, as the case may be, or any of the properties, assets or revenues of Mortgagor or Guarantors, as the case may be, are bound, if the failure to perform, observe or fulfill any such obligation, covenant or condition would materially and adversely affect the properties, assets, operations or condition (financial or otherwise) of Mortgagor or Guarantors, as the case may be, or the ability of any party to the Loan Documents to perform such partys obligations under the Loan Documents.
4.7 Leases. Mortgagor shall timely pay and perform each of its obligations under or in connection with the Leases, and shall otherwise pay such sums and take such action as shall be necessary or required in order to maintain each of the Leases in full force and effect in accordance with its terms. Mortgagor shall within five (5) business days following receipt thereof, furnish to Mortgagee copies of any notices given to Mortgagor by the lessee under any Lease, alleging the default by Mortgagor in the timely payment or performance of its obligations under such Lease, or purporting to terminate or cancel any Lease prior to its stated expiration date, or requiring or demanding the expenditure of any sum by Mortgagor (or demanding the taking of any action by Mortgagor), and any subsequent communications related thereto. Mortgagor agrees that Mortgagee, in its sole discretion, five (5) days following notice to Mortgagor from Mortgagee and provided that Mortgagor fails to take action to perform its obligations under such Lease within the five (5) days following such notice to Mortgagor from Mortgagee, may advance any sum or take any action which Mortgagee reasonably believes is necessary or required to maintain the Leases in full force and effect, and all such sums advanced by Mortgagee, together with all costs and expenses incurred by Mortgagee in connection with action taken by Mortgagee pursuant to this Section, shall be due and payable by Mortgagor to Mortgagee upon demand, shall bear interest until paid at the Default Rate, and shall be secured by this Mortgage.
4.8 Eminent Domain; Private Damage. If all or any part of the Property is taken or damaged by eminent domain or any other public or private action, Mortgagor will notify Mortgagee promptly of the time and place of all meetings, hearings, trials, and other proceedings relating to such action. Mortgagee may participate in all negotiations and appear and participate in all judicial or arbitration proceedings concerning any award or payment which may be due as a result of such taking or damage, and may, in Mortgagees sole discretion, compromise or settle, in the names of both Mortgagor and Mortgagee, any claim for any such award or payment; provided, however, that in any event any such compromise or settlement shall be subject to the prior consent of Mortgagee, which may be granted or withheld in Mortgagees discretion. Any such award or payment shall be paid directly to Mortgagee and shall be applied first to reimburse Mortgagee for all costs and expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys fees, incurred by Mortgagee in connection with the ascertainment and collection of such award or payment. The balance, if any, of such award or payment received by Mortgagee with respect to a condemnation shall, in Mortgagees sole discretion, either (i) be retained and applied by Mortgagee toward payment of the Secured Obligations, in such order and manner as Mortgagee deems appropriate, or (ii) be paid over, in whole or in part and subject to such conditions as Mortgagee may impose, to Mortgagor for the purpose of restoring, repairing, or rebuilding any part of the Property affected by the taking or damage. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.8 , Mortgagee shall make any such award or payment available to Mortgagor for restoration of the Property, provided, and on the following conditions: (A) no Event of Default or monetary or material non-monetary Default shall have occurred and be continuing, (B) Mortgagor demonstrates to the reasonable satisfaction of Mortgagee that Mortgagor has the financial ability to pay all principal and interest required under the Note, and perform all of the other Secured Obligations, during the restoration of the Property from the proceeds of rent loss or business interruption insurance or otherwise, (C) the damage occurs prior to the last six (6) months of the term of the Loan and the restoration is capable of being completed prior to the stated maturity date of the Loan, (D) any condemnation award and other funds provided by Mortgagor for the restoration are released under escrow and construction funding arrangements reasonably satisfactory to Mortgagee, (E) the repair or restoration will return the Property to substantially the same size, design and utility as existed immediately prior to the damage, (F) in the event the condemnation award is insufficient to pay by itself for the restoration (as determined in good faith by Mortgagee), Mortgagor shall, prior to the commencement of any restoration work, deposit with Mortgagee within fifteen (15) days after the date on which the condemnation award is received by Mortgagee such additional funds as in the good faith opinion of Mortgagee are necessary to complete the restoration; (G) Mortgagor undertakes and covenants and agrees (in writing) with Mortgagee to fund any and all deficiencies within fifteen (15) days after being notified in writing thereof and prior to the distribution of any further portion of the condemnation award, so that at all times the funds held by Mortgagee and remaining to be disbursed for purposes of the restoration shall be sufficient to complete the work; (H) the annual income from the Leases that are in existence as of the date hereof or executed in accordance with the provisions of this Mortgage and that will survive the restoration or repair of the Property produce a Debt Service Coverage Ratio of not less than 1.2 to 1.0, and Mortgagor demonstrates to Mortgagees reasonable satisfaction that Mortgagor will be able to attain Debt Service Coverage Ratio of at least 1.2 to 1.0 from Leases that are in existence as of the date hereof or executed in accordance with the provisions of this Mortgage within six (6) months after completion of the restoration; and (I) if any site plan amendment, variance, special use permit or other similar special approval or consent is required from any government authority or any other Person for such repair or restoration, Mortgagor shall obtain and deliver to Mortgagee such site plan amendment, variance, special use permit or other similar special approval or consent within one hundred eighty (180) days following such taking or condemnation (but such one hundred eighty (180) day time period shall in all respects be subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.8 and shall not extend or otherwise modify any time periods in such foregoing provisions).
Mortgagee may, prior to the application of any condemnation award, commingle it with Mortgagees own funds and otherwise act with regard to such award as Mortgagee may determine in Mortgagees sole discretion. If Mortgagee applies the condemnation award to the Secured Obligations due to the failure of the conditions under clause (H) of this Section 4.8 to be satisfied, then Mortgagor may, upon written notice delivered to Mortgagee within thirty (30) days following such application of the condemnation award to the Secured Obligations, elect to prepay the full principal amount of the Loan and all other amounts due under the Loan Documents, together with all accrued but unpaid interest thereon, and all other Secured Obligations, without any prepayment premium or penalty, such prepayment to be made within one-hundred eighty (180) days following such application of the condemnation award; provided, however, that Mortgagor continues to pay and fulfill all of Mortgagors obligations under this Note, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents up to and including the date of such full prepayment. If this Mortgage has been foreclosed prior to Mortgagees receipt of such award or payment, Mortgagee may nonetheless retain such award or payment to the extent required to reimburse Mortgagee for all costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys fees, incurred in connection therewith, and to discharge any deficiency remaining with respect to the Secured Obligations.
Mortgagee will have no obligation to see to the proper application of any proceeds paid over to Mortgagor, nor will any such proceeds received by Mortgagee bear interest or be subject to any other charge for the benefit of Mortgagor. If such proceeds are deposited with Mortgagee, Mortgagee may, prior to the application of such proceeds, commingle them with Mortgagees own funds and otherwise act with regard to such proceeds as Mortgagee may determine in Mortgagees sole discretion.
4.9 Mechanics Liens. Mortgagor will keep the Property free and clear of all liens and claims of liens by contractors, subcontractors, mechanics, laborers, materialmen, and other such persons, and will cause any recorded statement of any such lien to be released of record or bonded off within sixty (60) days after the recording thereof. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, however, Mortgagor will not be deemed to be in default under this Section if and so long as Mortgagor (a) contests in good faith the validity or amount of any asserted lien and diligently prosecutes or defends an action appropriate to obtain a binding determination of the disputed matter, (b) provides Mortgagee with such security as Mortgagee may reasonably require to protect Mortgagee against all loss, damage and expense, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys fees, which Mortgagee might incur if the asserted lien is determined to be valid (which security may, at the option of Mortgagor, be in the form of a bond over such lien, provided that such bond either removes any such lien of record or prevents the filing of any such lien of record).
4.10 Defense of Actions. Mortgagor will defend, at Mortgagors expense, any action, proceeding or claim which affects any property encumbered hereby or any interest of Mortgagee in such property or in the Secured Obligations, and Mortgagor will indemnify and hold Mortgagee harmless from all loss, damage, cost, or expense, including attorneys fees, which Mortgagee may incur in connection therewith.
4.11 Expenses of Enforcement. Mortgagor will pay all costs and expenses, which Mortgagee may incur in connection with any effort or action (whether or not litigation or foreclosure is involved) to enforce or defend Mortgagees rights and remedies under any of the Loan Documents, including, but not limited to, all attorneys fees, appraisal fees, consultants fees, and other expenses incurred by Mortgagee in securing title to or possession of, and realizing upon, any security for the Secured Obligations. All such costs and expenses (together with interest thereon at the Default Rate from the date incurred) shall constitute part of the Secured Obligations, and may be included in the computation of the amount owed to Mortgagee for purposes of foreclosing or otherwise enforcing this Mortgage.
4.12 Financial Reports. Mortgagor shall furnish to Mortgagee (a) within ninety (90) days following the end of each fiscal year of Mortgagor, Mortgagors quarterly and annual operating statements for the Property as of the end of and for the preceding quarter and fiscal year, as applicable, in each case prepared against the budget for such fiscal year, as may be applicable, (b) contemporaneously with the delivery of each of such operating statements of the Property, a rent roll certified, signed and dated by Mortgagor detailing the names of all tenants under the Leases, the portion of the improvements on the Property occupied by each tenant, the rent and any other charges payable under each Lease and the term of each Lease, (c) the annual balance sheet and profit and loss statement of Mortgagor and an annual balance sheet of each Guarantor and (d) the federal and state tax returns of each Guarantor not later than the date that is ten (10) days following the date that such federal and state tax returns are filed.
The financial statements and reports described in (a) and (c) above shall be in such form and in such detail as Mortgagee may require, shall be prepared on a tax basis (with respect to Mortgagor only) and shall be certified as true and correct by Mortgagor or each Guarantor, as may be applicable (or if required by Mortgagee, after the occurrence of an Event of Default, by an independent certified public accountant acceptable to Mortgagee). Mortgagor shall file and pay its annual tax returns and taxes in a timely manner. Mortgagor shall also furnish or cause to be furnished to Mortgagee within forty-five (45) after Mortgagees request, any other financial reports or statements of Mortgagor, including, without limitation, balance sheets, profit and loss statements, tax returns (within fifteen (15) days after filing with the applicable governmental authority), other financial statements, and certified rent rolls, required under any of the Loan Documents, requested by any regulatory or governmental authority exercising jurisdiction over Mortgagee, certified as true and correct by Mortgagor. Following the occurrence of any Event of Default, Mortgagor shall deliver to Mortgagee the items required in (a) and (b) above on a monthly basis. Mortgagors financial statements will be prepared by Shapiro, Goldstein and Moses or Kimmel Blau or a reasonable comparable firm selected by Mortgagor, and reasonably approved by Mortgagee.
4.13 Priority of Leases. To the extent Mortgagor has the right, under the terms of any Lease, to make such Lease subordinate to the lien hereof, Mortgagor will, at Mortgagees request and Mortgagors expense, take such action as may be reasonably required to effect such subordination. Conversely, Mortgagor will, at Mortgagees request and Mortgagors expense, take such action as may be necessary to subordinate the lien hereof to any future Lease designated by Mortgagee. The standard form of Lease used by Mortgagor shall provide that the Lease is subject and subordinate to the Mortgage and all future mortgages affecting the Property. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, however, Mortgagee shall provide an SNDA, in Mortgagees standard form, for each Lease that does not require Mortgagees approval under this Mortgage or that has been approved by Mortgagee; provided, however, that if any tenant under any such Lease requests a different form of such an agreement or modifications to Mortgagees standard form of such agreement, then Mortgagee shall use commercially reasonable efforts to negotiate a form of such an agreement that is mutually acceptable to Mortgagee and such tenant. In no event, however, shall Mortgagee be required to enter into a form of such agreement that is not commercially reasonably acceptable to Mortgagee.
4.14 Inventories; Assembly of Chattels. Mortgagor shall, from time to time at request of Mortgagee, deliver to Mortgagee a current inventory of the Chattels and the Intangible Personalty, in such detail as Mortgagee may require. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default hereunder, Mortgagor will at Mortgagees request assemble the Chattels and make them available to Mortgagee at any place designated by Mortgagee which is reasonably convenient to both parties.
4.15 Compliance with Laws, Existence, Etc. (a) Mortgagor shall comply in all material respects with all applicable laws, rules, regulations and orders and other governmental or quasi-governmental requirements and private covenants, such compliance to include, without limitation, maintaining all Permits and paying before the same become delinquent all taxes, assessments and governmental charges imposed upon Mortgagor or the Property. Mortgagor shall maintain all Permits necessary or desirable for the operation, ownership, use, development, occupancy and maintenance of the Property for its current use, and without limiting this covenant of Mortgagor, Mortgagor shall make application for renewals of any of the Permits prior to the expiration thereof.
Mortgagor shall, promptly after receiving notice thereof, notify Mortgagee of any litigation, action, proceeding or investigation against Mortgagor or any Mortgagor Control Person or the Property before any court, governmental or quasi-governmental arbitrator or other authority and, upon reasonable request of Mortgagee, from time to time provide Mortgagee with status or other information in respect thereof. Mortgagor and each Mortgagor Control Person shall do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve, renew and keep in full force and effect its existence as a limited liability company, corporation or other entity, as may be applicable, and to maintain its authorization to perform the obligations under the Loan Documents. Neither Mortgagor nor any Mortgagor Control Person shall amend or modify its organizational documents so as to contravene any of the Loan Documents or to prevent the observance of the obligations under the Loan Documents. Mortgagor and each Mortgagor Control Person shall comply in material respects with all applicable laws, rules, regulations and orders and other governmental or quasi-governmental requirements, and shall obtain all authorizations, approvals and consents from, and shall make all notices and filings with, any court, governmental, authority or regulatory body, in respect of its right and ability to perform, or cause the performance of, the obligations under the Loan Documents. Mortgagor shall maintain its status as non-foreign person within the meaning of Sections 1445 and 7701 of the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the regulations issued thereunder.
(b) Right to Contest . Notwithstanding any other provision of this Mortgage, Mortgagor will not be deemed to be in default solely by reason of Mortgagors failure to comply with any applicable law, rule, regulation or order so long as, in Mortgagees judgment, each of the following conditions is satisfied:
(i) Mortgagor is engaged in and diligently pursuing in good faith administrative or judicial proceedings appropriate to contest the validity or applicability of such law, rule, regulation or order; and
(ii) Noncompliance with any such law, rule, regulation or order will not result in the loss or forfeiture of any property encumbered hereby or any interest of Mortgagee therein or result in any fines or other punitive actions or any loss or impairment of insurance coverage; and
(iii) Mortgagor deposits with Mortgagee, as security for any payment or performance which may ultimately be required, a sum equal to the amount of any fine, assessment or charge plus the interest, penalties, and other costs which Mortgagee reasonably estimates are likely to become payable if Mortgagors contest is unsuccessful.
If Mortgagee determines that any one or more of such conditions is not satisfied or is no longer satisfied, then Mortgagor shall comply with the law, rule, regulation or order in question, within thirty (30) days after Mortgagee gives notice of such determination.
4.16 Records and Books of Account. Mortgagor shall keep accurate and complete records and books of account, in which complete entries will be made, reflecting all financial transactions relating to the Property.
4.17 Inspection Rights. At any reasonable time, and from time to time, upon not less than 24 hours prior notice from Mortgagee, Mortgagor shall permit Mortgagee, or any agents or representatives thereof, to examine and make copies of and abstracts from the records and books of account of, and visit and inspect the Property and to discuss with Mortgagor the affairs, finances and accounts of Mortgagor. Mortgagor shall take all actions necessary or required under the Leases to effect such right of Mortgagee to inspect the Property.
4.18 Change of Executive Offices. Mortgagor shall promptly notify Mortgagee if changes are made in the location of Mortgagors primary executive offices.
4.19 Further Assurances; Estoppel Certificates. Mortgagor will execute and deliver to Mortgagee within ten (10) days after any request by Mortgagee, and pay the costs of preparation and recording thereof, any further documents which Mortgagee may reasonably request to confirm or perfect the liens and security interests created or intended to be created hereby, or to confirm or perfect any evidence of the Secured Obligations. Mortgagor will also, within ten (10) days after any request by Mortgagee, deliver to Mortgagee a signed and acknowledged statement certifying to Mortgagee, or to any proposed transferee of the Secured Obligations, (a) the balance of principal, interest, and other sums then outstanding under the Note and the other Loan Documents and (b) whether Mortgagor claims to have any offsets or defenses with respect to the Secured Obligations and, if so, the nature of such offsets or defenses.
4.20 Costs of Closing. Mortgagor shall on demand pay directly or reimburse Mortgagee for any costs or expenses reasonably incurred in connection with the closing of the Loan, including, but not limited to, fees of counsel for Mortgagee and costs and expenses for which invoices were not available at the closing of such loan, or costs and expenses which are incurred by Mortgagee after such closing. All such costs and expenses (together with interest thereon at the Default Rate from the date of demand by Mortgagee) shall constitute a part of the Secured Obligations, and may be included in the computation of the amount owed to Mortgagee for purposes of foreclosing or otherwise enforcing this Mortgage.
4.21 Fund for Electronic Transfer. All monthly payments of principal and interest on the Note, escrow deposits and other amounts due under this Mortgage or the other Loan Documents shall be made by Mortgagor by electronic funds transfer from a bank account established and maintained by Mortgagor for such purpose. Mortgagor shall establish and maintain such account until the Secured Obligations are fully paid and shall direct the depository of such account in writing to so transmit such payments on or before the respective due dates to the account of Mortgagee as shall be designated by Mortgagee in writing.
4.22 Use. Mortgagor shall use the Property solely for the operation of a warehouse and industrial office building and any other use consistent therewith and not otherwise in violation of any applicable laws and for no other use or purpose.
4.23 Management. The Property shall be managed by Mortgagor or any Property Manager (as defined below). The Property shall not be managed by any Person other than Mortgagor, except under a management agreement delivered to, and approved by, Mortgagee (the Management Agreement) and with a property manager consented to by Mortgagee (the Property Manager). Any substitute or replacement Property Manager or any other change in Property Manager shall be subject to the prior written consent of Mortgagee in its sole discretion.
Mortgagor shall not permit any amendment to or modification of any Management Agreement, or management of the Property by any Person other than Mortgagor or Property Manager, without the prior written consent of Mortgagee. Any such Property Manager shall execute a Subordination Agreement in respect of its Management Agreement in form and substance satisfactory to Mortgagee.
4.24 Cash Management Lockbox.
(a) At or prior to the closing of the Loan, Mortgagee and Mortgagor shall enter into the Cash Management Agreement, pursuant to which Mortgagor and Mortgagee shall establish a lockbox account (Lockbox Account) into which all proceeds and revenues from the Property will be deposited, and a cash collateral account (Cash Collateral Account), into which such proceeds and revenues may be swept pursuant to Section 4.24(f) below, at a bank (the Lockbox Bank) selected by Mortgagee, but reasonably acceptable to Mortgagor.
(b) Mortgagor shall, or shall cause each tenant at the Property and all other persons and/or entities that make payments in respect of the Property to, remit all amounts due with respect to the Property directly to a lockbox maintained by the Lockbox Bank or to wire such amounts directly into the Lockbox Account. Mortgagor and the Property Manager shall promptly deposit into the Lockbox Account any checks or payments they receive from time to time, notwithstanding such instructions to the tenants and such other person and/or entities, and Mortgagor and Property Manager shall hold any such checks or payments in trust for the benefit of Mortgagee until such checks or amounts are deposited into the Lockbox Account.
(c) The Lockbox Bank and the Servicer retained by Mortgagee to service the Loan shall be authorized and empowered to endorse any and all checks from tenants solely for deposit into the Lockbox Account.
(d) The Lockbox Account and the Cash Collateral Account shall be in the name of Mortgagee or Servicer, as secured party (or agent for secured party), and shall be under the sole dominion and control of Mortgagee. Mortgagor shall grant Mortgagee a first priority security interest in the Lockbox Account and Cash Collateral Account and shall take all actions requested by Mortgagee to perfect such security interest.
(e) Amounts on deposit in the Lockbox Account shall be swept daily into an operating account (the Operating Account) maintained by Mortgagor unless and until Servicer receives notice from Mortgagee that a Triggering Event (as defined below) has occurred, in which event the cash flow sweep described in Section 4.24(f) below shall apply.
(f) Upon the occurrence of any Triggering Event, Mortgagee, at its option, may cause Servicer to daily sweep 100% of all proceeds and revenues from the Property in the Lockbox Account into the Cash Collateral Account, and Mortgagee shall apply the same, to principal, interest and/or any other amounts due Mortgagee under the Loan Documents and to the costs and expenses of the operation and maintenance of the Property in such order as Mortgagee shall elect. Each of the following shall constitute a Triggering Event: (i) a Default under, and as defined in, the Loan Documents; (ii) an Event of Default under, and as defined in, the Loan Documents; or (iii) the Trigger Event Debt Service Coverage Ratio shall be less than 1.20 to 1.00.
(g) With respect to the first two (2) Triggering Events only, following the cure of any Default or Event of Default (that is accepted by Mortgagee in its sole discretion) with respect to which Mortgagee has notified Servicer that a Triggering Event has occurred or provided that the Property and the Additional Properties have achieved a Trigger Event Debt Service Coverage Ratio of at least 1.20 to 1.00, for two (2) consecutive quarters, as applicable, and after Mortgagee has applied all proceeds and revenues as described above, Mortgagee will release all excess amounts remaining in the Cash Collateral Account to Mortgagor, and Servicer will resume sweeping proceeds from the Lockbox Account into the Operating Account as provided in Section 4.24(e) above. For the avoidance of doubt, Mortgagor shall have no right to cure a Triggering Event following the second Triggering Event and any subsequent Triggering Event shall continue until such time as all principal, interest and all other amounts due and payable to Mortgagee under this Mortgage and the other Loan Documents have been paid or repaid in full, as applicable.
4.25 Single Purpose Entity. Mortgagor shall at all times be a Single Purpose Entity.
4.26 General Indemnity. Mortgagor agrees that while Mortgagee has no liability to any Person in tort or otherwise as lender and that while Mortgagee is not an owner or operator of the Property, Mortgagor shall, at its sole cost and expense, protect, defend, release, indemnify and hold harmless the Indemnified Parties (defined below) from any Losses (defined below) imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against the Indemnified Parties, directly or indirectly, arising out of or in connection with the Secured Obligations, the Property (or any portion thereof), the Loan, or the Loan Documents, any and all claims for brokerage, leasing, finders or similar fees that may be made relating to the Property and the Secured Obligations, or the exercise by Mortgagee of any rights or remedies granted to Mortgagee pursuant to this Mortgage, the other Loan Documents or applicable law; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not apply (a) to any Losses caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Indemnified Parties or (b) to any disputes among the Indemnified Parties not caused in whole or in part by a breach of Mortgagors obligations under the Loan Documents. The term Losses shall mean any claims, suits, liabilities (including strict liabilities), actions, proceedings, obligations, debts, damages, losses (including, without limitation, unrealized loss of value of the Property), costs, expenses, fines, penalties, charges, fees, judgments, awards, and amounts paid in settlement of whatever kind including reasonable attorneys fees and all other costs of defense.

Mortgagor represents and warrants that it has taken reasonable measures appropriate to the circumstances (and in any event as required by law), with respect to each holder of a direct or indirect interest in Mortgagor, to assure that funds invested by such holders in Mortgagor are derived from legal sources ( Anti-Money Laundering Measures ).

4.31 Duty to Defend, Costs and Expenses. Upon request, whether Mortgagors obligation to indemnify Mortgagee arises under Section 4.26 above or elsewhere in the Loan Documents, Mortgagor shall defend the Indemnified Parties (in Mortgagors or the Indemnified Parties names) by attorneys and other professionals approved by the Indemnified Parties. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indemnified Parties may, in their sole discretion, engage their own attorneys and professionals to defend or assist them and, at their option, their attorneys shall control the resolution of any claims or proceedings. Upon demand, Mortgagor shall pay or, in the sole discretion of the Indemnified Parties, reimburse the Indemnified Parties for all Losses imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against the Indemnified Parties by reason of any items set forth in Section 4.26 above and/or the enforcement or preservation of the Indemnified Parties rights under the Loan Documents.

7.1 Performance of Defaulted Obligations.

(g) Subject to the provisions of Section 18 of the Note and Section 9.21 of this Mortgage, the obligation of this Mortgage and of the Note shall continue until the Secured Obligations are paid in full notwithstanding any action or actions or partial foreclosure which may be brought to recover any amount or amounts for installments of principal, interest, taxes, assessments, water and sewer charges, rents and rates or insurance or other sums or charges due and payable under the provisions of this Mortgage.
(h) No recovery of any judgment by Mortgagee and no levy of an execution under any judgment upon the Property or upon any other property of Mortgagor shall affect in any manner or to any extent, the lien of this Mortgage upon the Property or any part thereof, or any liens, rights, powers or remedies of Mortgagee hereunder, but such liens, rights, powers and remedies of Mortgagee shall continue unimpaired as before, and notwithstanding any statutory rate of interest applicable with respect to judgments, after the entering of execution of any judgment, the Secured Obligations shall bear interest at the Default Rate until the Secured Obligations shall have been paid in full.
(i) In the event of a foreclosure of this Mortgage or the succession by Mortgagee to the interests of Mortgagor hereunder, the purchaser of the Property or such successor shall succeed to all rights of Mortgagor, including any right to proceeds of insurance and to unearned premiums, and in and to all policies or certificates of insurance assigned and delivered to Mortgagee pursuant to this Mortgage.
(j) Any assignee of this Mortgage and the Note shall take the same free and clear of all offsets, counterclaims and defenses of any nature (except for payments actually made) whatsoever which Mortgagor may have against any assignor of this Mortgage and the Note and no such offset, counterclaim or defense (except for payments actually made) shall be interposed or asserted by Mortgagor in any action or proceeding brought by any such assignee upon this Mortgage and/or the Note and any such right to interpose or assert any such offset, counterclaim or defense in any such action or proceeding is hereby expressly waived by Mortgagor.
(k) In any action or proceeding to foreclose this Mortgage, or to recover or collect the Secured Obligations, the provisions of law respecting the recovery of costs, disbursements and allowances shall also be applicable.
(1) Nothing in this Section dealing with foreclosure procedures or specifying particular actions to be taken by Mortgagee shall be deemed to contradict or add to the requirements and procedures now or hereafter specified by Connecticut law, and any such inconsistency shall be resolved in favor of Connecticut law applicable at the time of foreclosure.
7.8 Appointment of Receiver. To the extent permitted by law, Mortgagee shall be entitled, as a matter of absolute right and without regard to the value of any security for the Secured Obligations or the solvency of any person liable therefor, to the appointment of a receiver for the Property upon ex-parte application to any court of competent jurisdiction.
Mortgagor waives any right to any hearing or notice of hearing prior to the appointment of a receiver. Such receiver and its agents shall be empowered, but shall not be obligated, to (a) take possession of the Property and any businesses conducted by Mortgagor or any other person thereon and any business assets used in connection therewith, (b) exclude Mortgagor and Mortgagors agents, servants, and employees from the Property, (c) collect the rents, issues, profits, and income therefrom, (d) complete any construction which may be in progress, (e) do such maintenance and make such repairs and alterations as the receiver deems necessary, (f) use all stores of materials, supplies, and maintenance equipment on the Property and replace such items at the expense of the receivership estate, (g) pay all taxes and assessments against the Property and the Chattels, all premiums for insurance thereon, all utility and other operating expenses, and all sums due under any prior or subsequent encumbrance, and (h) generally do anything which Mortgagor could legally do if Mortgagor were in possession of the Property. All expenses incurred by the receiver or its agents shall constitute a part of the Secured Obligations. Any revenues collected by the receiver shall be applied first to the expenses of the receivership, including attorneys fees incurred by the receiver and by Mortgagee, together with interest thereon at the Default Rate from the date incurred until repaid, and the balance shall be applied toward the Secured Obligations in such order or manner as Mortgagee may in its sole discretion elect or in such other manner as the court may direct. Unless sooner terminated with the express consent of Mortgagee, any such receivership will continue until the Secured Obligations have been discharged in full, or until title to the Property has passed after foreclosure sale and all applicable periods of redemption have expired.
7.9 Right to Make Repairs, Improvements. Should any part of the Property come into the possession of Mortgagee, after an Event of Default, Mortgagee may, but shall not be obligated, to use, operate, and/or make repairs, alterations, additions and improvements to the Property for the purpose of preserving it or its value. Mortgagor covenants to promptly reimburse and pay to Mortgagee, at the place where the Note is payable, or at such other place as may be designated by Mortgagee in writing, the amount of all reasonable expenses (including the cost of any insurance, taxes, or other charges) incurred by Mortgagee in connection with its custody, preservation, use or operation of the Property, together with interest thereon from the date incurred by Mortgagee at the Default Rate, and all such expenses, costs, taxes, interest, and other charges shall be a part of the Secured Obligations. It is agreed, however, except to the extent arising out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Mortgagee or its agents, that the risk of accidental loss or damage to the Property is undertaken by Mortgagor and Mortgagee shall have no liability whatsoever for decline in value of the Property, for failure to obtain or maintain insurance, or for failure to determine whether any insurance ever in force is adequate as to amount or as to the risks insured.
7.10 Surrender of Insurance. Mortgagee may surrender the insurance policies maintained pursuant to the terms hereof, or any part thereof, and receive and apply the unearned premiums as a credit on the Secured Obligations and, in connection therewith, Mortgagor hereby appoints Mortgagee (or any officer of Mortgagee), as the true and lawful agent and attorney-in-fact for Mortgagor (with full powers of substitution), which power of attorney shall be deemed to be a power coupled with an interest and therefore irrevocable, to collect such premiums.
7.11 Prima Facie Evidence. Mortgagor agrees that, in any assignments, deeds, bills of sale, notices of sale, or postings, given by Mortgagee, any and all statements of fact or other recitals therein made as to the identity of Mortgagee, or as to the occurrence or existence of any Event of Default, or as to the acceleration of the maturity of the Secured Obligations, or as to the request to sell, posting of notice of sale, notice of sale, time, place, terms and manner of sale and receipt, distribution and application of the money realized therefrom, and without being limited by the foregoing, as to any other act or thing having been duly done by Mortgagee, shall be taken by all courts of law and equity as prima facie evidence that such statements or recitals state facts and are without further question to be so accepted, and Mortgagor does hereby ratify and confirm any and all acts that Mortgagee may lawfully do by virtue hereof.
7.12 Rights to Funds Held Pursuant to the Reserve Agreements. Mortgagee may, in accordance with the Reserve Agreements, apply all or any portion of the funds by Mortgagee or its Servicer pursuant to the Reserve Agreements, or any other reserve or escrow account, to any and all of the Secured Obligations in such order of priority as Mortgagee shall elect in its sole and absolute discretion.
7.13 Remedies Under Other Loan Documents. Mortgagee may exercise any right or remedy provided for in any of the other Loan Documents, including, without limitation, the Additional Loan Documents.
ARTICLE 8
ASSIGNMENT OF LEASES AND RENTS
8.1 Assignment of Leases and Rents. Mortgagor hereby unconditionally and absolutely grants, transfers and assigns unto Mortgagee all Rents now or hereafter due or payable for the occupancy or use of the Property, and all Leases, whether written or oral, with all security therefor, including all guaranties thereof, now or hereafter affecting the Property; reserving unto Mortgagor, however, a license to collect and retain such Rents and all security for the Leases prior to the occurrence of any Event of Default. Such license shall be revocable by Mortgagee without notice to Mortgagor at any time that an Event of Default exists. Mortgagor represents that the Rents and the Leases have not been heretofore sold, assigned, transferred or set over by any instrument now in force and will not at any time during the life of this assignment be sold, assigned, transferred or set over by Mortgagor or by any person or persons whomsoever; and Mortgagor has good right to sell, assign, transfer and set over the same and to grant to and confer upon Mortgagee the rights, interest, powers and authorities herein granted and conferred. Failure of Mortgagee at any time or from time to time to enforce the assignment of Rents and Leases under this Section shall not in any manner prevent its subsequent enforcement, and Mortgagee is not obligated to collect anything hereunder, but is accountable only for sums actually collected.
8.2 Further Assignments. Mortgagor shall give Mortgagee at any time upon demand any further or additional forms of assignment or transfer of such Rents, Leases and security as may be reasonably requested by Mortgagee, and shall deliver to Mortgagee executed copies of all such Leases and security.
8.3 Application of Rents. Mortgagee shall be entitled to deduct and retain a just and reasonable compensation from monies received hereunder for its services or that of its agents in collecting such monies. Any monies received by Mortgagee hereunder may be applied when received from time to time in payment of any taxes, assessments or other liens affecting the Property regardless of the delinquency, such application to be in such order as Mortgagee may determine The acceptance of this Mortgage by Mortgagee or the exercise of any rights by it hereunder shall not be, or be construed to be, an affirmation by it of any Lease nor an assumption of any liability under any Lease.
8.4 Collection of Rents. Upon or at any time that an Event of Default exists, Mortgagee may declare all sums secured hereby immediately due and payable, and may, at its option, without notice, and whether or not the Secured Obligations shall have been declared due and payable, either in person or by agent, with or without bringing any action or proceeding, or by a receiver to be appointed by a court, (a) enter upon, take possession of, manage and operate the Property, or any part thereof (including without limitation making necessary repairs, alterations and improvements to the Property); (b) make, cancel, enforce or modify Leases (and any guaranties thereof); (c) obtain and evict tenants; (d) fix or modify Rents; (e) do any acts which Mortgagee deems reasonably proper to protect the security thereof and (f) either with or without taking possession of the Property, in its own name sue for or otherwise collect and receive such Rents, including those past due and unpaid. In connection with the foregoing, Mortgagee shall be entitled and empowered to employ attorneys, and management, rental and other agents in and about the Property and to effect the matters which Mortgagee is empowered to do, and in the event Mortgagee shall itself effect such matters, Mortgagee shall be entitled to charge and receive reasonable management, rental and other fees therefor as may be customary in the area in which the Property is located; and the reasonable fees, charges, costs and expenses of Mortgagee or such persons shall be additional Secured Obligations. Mortgagee may apply all funds collected as aforesaid, less costs and expenses of operation and collection, including reasonable attorneys and agents fees, charges, costs and expenses, as aforesaid, upon any Secured Obligations, and in such order as Mortgagee may determine. The entering upon and taking possession of the Property, the collection of such Rents and the application thereof as aforesaid shall not cure or waive any default or waive, modify or affect notice of default under the Note or this Mortgage or invalidate any act done pursuant to such notice.
8.5 Authority of Mortgagee. Any tenants or occupants of any part of the Property are hereby authorized to recognize the claims of Mortgagee hereunder without investigating the reason for any action taken by Mortgagee, or the validity or the amount of Secured Obligations owing to Mortgagee, or the existence of any default in the Note or this Mortgage, or under or by reason of this assignment of Rents and Leases, or the application to be made by Mortgagee of any amounts to be paid to Mortgagee. The sole signature of Mortgagee shall be sufficient for the exercise of any rights under this assignment and the sole receipt of Mortgagee for any sums received shall be a full discharge and release therefor to any such tenant or occupant of the Property. Checks for all or any part of the rentals collected under this assignment of Rents and Leases shall be drawn to the exclusive order of Mortgagee.
8.6 Indemnification of Mortgagee. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to obligate Mortgagee to perform or discharge any obligation, duty or liability of any lessor under any Lease of the Property, and Mortgagor shall and does hereby indemnify and hold Mortgagee harmless from any and all liability, loss or damage which Mortgagee may or might incur under any Lease or by reason of the assignment; and any and all such liability, loss or damage incurred by Mortgagee, together with the costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys fees, incurred by Mortgagee in defense of any claims or demands therefor (whether successful or not), shall be additional Secured Obligations, and Mortgagor shall reimburse Mortgagee therefor on demand.
ARTICLE 9
MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS
9.1 Time of the Essence. Time is of the essence with respect to all provisions of the Loan Documents.
9.2 Joint and Several Obligations. If Mortgagor is more than one person or entity, then: (a) all Persons comprising Mortgagor are jointly and severally liable for all of the Secured Obligations; (b) all representations, warranties, and covenants made by Mortgagor shall be deemed representations, warranties, and covenants of each of the Persons comprising Mortgagor; (c) any breach, Default or Event of Default by any of the Persons comprising Mortgagor hereunder shall be deemed to be a breach, Default, or Event of Default of Mortgagor; (d) any reference herein contained to the knowledge or awareness of Mortgagor shall mean the actual or constructive knowledge or awareness of the Guarantors; and (e) any event creating personal liability of any of the Persons comprising Mortgagor shall create personal liability for all such Persons.
9.3 Waiver of Homestead and Other Exemptions. To the extent permitted by law, Mortgagor hereby waives all rights to any homestead or other exemption to which Mortgagor would otherwise be entitled under any present or future constitutional, statutory, or other provision of applicable state or federal law. Mortgagor hereby waives any right it may have to require Mortgagee to marshal all or any portion of the security for the Secured Obligations. Notwithstanding the existence of interests in the Property, Chattels or Intangible Personalty other than that created by this Mortgage, and notwithstanding any other provision of this Mortgage, upon an Event of Default, to the extent permitted by applicable law, Mortgagee shall have the right, in Mortgagees sole discretion, to determine the order in which the Property, Chattels or Intangible Personalty shall be subjected to the remedies provided in this Mortgage and to determine the order in which all or any part of the Indebtedness secured by this Mortgage is satisfied from the proceeds realized upon the exercise of the remedies provided in this Mortgage.
9.4 Non Recourse; Exceptions to Non-Recourse. Except as expressly set forth in Section 18 of the Note and Section 9.21 of this Mortgage, the recourse of Mortgagee with respect to the obligations evidenced by the Note, this Mortgage and the other Loan Documents (except for the Guaranty and the Environmental Indemnity Agreement) shall be solely to the Property, Chattels and Intangible Personalty, and any other collateral given as security for the Note.
9.5 Rights and Remedies Cumulative. Mortgagees rights and remedies under each of the Loan Documents are cumulative of the rights and remedies available to Mortgagee under each of the other Loan Documents and those otherwise available to Mortgagee at law or in equity. No act of Mortgagee shall be construed as an election to proceed under any particular provision of any Loan Document to the exclusion of any other provision in the same or any other Loan Document, or as an election of remedies to the exclusion of any other remedy which may then or thereafter be available to Mortgagee.
9.6 No Implied Waivers. Mortgagee shall not be deemed to have waived any provision of any Loan Document unless such waiver is in writing and is signed by Mortgagee. Without limiting the generality of the preceding sentence, neither Mortgagees acceptance of any payment with knowledge of a Default by Mortgagor, nor any failure by Mortgagee to exercise any remedy following a Default by Mortgagor shall be deemed a waiver of such Default, and no waiver by Mortgagee of any particular Default on the part of Mortgagor shall be deemed a waiver of any other Default or of any similar Default in the future.
9.7 No Third Party Rights. No person shall be a third party beneficiary of any provision of any of the Loan Documents. All provisions of the Loan Documents favoring Mortgagee are intended solely for the benefit of Mortgagee, and no third party shall be entitled to assume or expect that Mortgagee will not waive or consent to modification of any such provision in Mortgagees sole discretion.
9.8 Preservation of Liability and Priority. Without affecting the liability of Mortgagor or of any other person (except a person expressly released in writing) for payment and performance of all of the Secured Obligations, and without affecting the rights of Mortgagee with respect to any security not expressly released in writing, and without impairing in any way the priority of this Mortgage over the interests of any person acquired or first evidenced by recording subsequent to the recording hereof, Mortgagee may, either before or after the maturity of the Note, and without notice or consent: (a) release any person liable for payment or performance of all or any part of the Secured Obligations; (b) make any agreement altering the terms of payment or performance of all or any of the Secured Obligations; (c) exercise or refrain from exercising, or waive, any right or remedy which Mortgagee may have under any of the Loan Documents; (d) accept additional security of any kind for any of the Secured Obligations; or (e) release or otherwise deal with any real or personal property securing the Secured Obligations. Any person acquiring or recording evidence of any interest of any nature in the Property, the Chattels, or the Intangible Personalty shall be deemed, by acquiring such interest or recording any evidence thereof, to have agreed and consented to any or all such actions by Mortgagee.
9.9 Subrogation of Mortgagee. Mortgagee shall be subrogated to the lien of any previous encumbrance discharged with funds advanced by Mortgagee under the Loan Documents, regardless of whether such previous encumbrance has been released of record.
9.10 Notices. Any notice, consent or approval required or permitted to be given by Mortgagor or Mortgagee under this Mortgage shall be in writing and will be deemed given (a) upon personal delivery, (b) on the first Business Day after receipted delivery to a courier service which guarantees next-business-day delivery, or (c) on the third Business Day after mailing, by registered or certified United States mail, postage prepaid, in any case to the appropriate party at its address set forth below:

Either party may change such partys address for notices or copies of notices by giving notice to the other party in accordance with this Section.
9.11 Defeasance. Upon payment and performance in full of all of the Secured Obligations, Mortgagee will, at the sole cost and expense of Mortgagor, execute and deliver to Mortgagor such documents as may be required to release this Mortgage of record or in accordance with Section 10.8 hereof, to assign this Mortgage as directed by Mortgagor.
9.12 Illegality. If any provision of this Mortgage is held to be illegal, invalid, or unenforceable under present or future laws effective during the term of this Mortgage, the legality, validity, and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Mortgage shall not be affected thereby, and in lieu of each such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision there shall be added automatically as a part of this Mortgage a provision as similar in terms to such illegal, invalid, or unenforceable provision as may be possible and be legal, valid, and enforceable. If the rights and liens created by this Mortgage shall be invalid or unenforceable as to any part of the Secured Obligations, then the unsecured portion of the Secured Obligations shall be completely paid prior to the payment of the remaining and secured portion of the Secured Obligations, and all payments made on the Secured Obligations shall be considered to have been paid on and applied first to the complete payment of the unsecured portion of the Secured Obligations.
9.13 Usury Savings Clause. It is expressly stipulated and agreed to be the intent of Mortgagee and Mortgagor at all times to comply with the applicable law governing the highest lawful interest rate. If the applicable law is ever judicially interpreted so as to render usurious any amount called for under the Note or under any of the other Loan Documents, or contracted for, charged, taken, reserved or received with respect to the loan evidenced thereby, or if acceleration of the maturity of the Note, any prepayment by Mortgagor, or any other circumstance whatsoever, results in Mortgagor having paid any interest in excess of that permitted by applicable law, then it is the express intent of Mortgagor and Mortgagee that all excess amounts theretofore collected by Mortgagee be credited on the principal balance of the Note (or, at Mortgagees option, paid over to Mortgagor), and the provisions of the Note and other Loan Documents immediately be deemed reformed and the amounts thereafter collectible hereunder and thereunder reduced, without the necessity of the execution of any new document, so as to comply with the applicable law, but so as to permit the recovery of the fullest amount otherwise called for hereunder and thereunder. The right to accelerate maturity of the Note does not include the right to accelerate any interest which has not otherwise accrued on the date of such acceleration, and Mortgagee does not intend to collect any unearned interest in the event of acceleration. All sums paid or agreed to be paid to Mortgagee for the use, forbearance or detention of the Secured Obligations evidenced hereby or by the Note shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread throughout the full term of such Secured Obligations until payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of such Secured Obligations does not exceed the maximum rate or amount of interest permitted under applicable law. The term applicable law as used herein shall mean any federal or state law applicable to the loan made by Mortgagee to Mortgagor evidenced by the Note.
9.14 Obligations Binding Upon Mortgagors Successors. This Mortgage is binding upon Mortgagor and Mortgagors successors and assigns, and shall inure to the benefit of Mortgagee, and its successors and assigns, and the provisions hereof shall likewise be covenants running with the land. The duties, covenants, conditions, obligations, and warranties of Mortgagor in this Mortgage shall be joint and several obligations of Mortgagor and Mortgagors successors and assigns.
9.15 Construction. All pronouns and any variations of pronouns herein shall be deemed to refer to the masculine, feminine, or neuter, singular or plural, as the identity of the parties may require. Whenever the terms herein are singular, the same shall be deemed to mean the plural, as the identity of the parties or the context requires. The term including shall mean including, without limitation. Each party hereto acknowledges that each party hereto and its respective counsel reviewed and revised this Mortgage and the other Loan Documents, and each party hereto agrees that any rule of construction to the effect that ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting party shall not apply in the interpretation of this Mortgage and the other Loan Documents.
9.16 Attorneys Fees. Any reference in this Mortgage to attorneys or counsel fees paid or incurred by Mortgagee shall be deemed to include paralegals fees and legal assistants fees. Moreover, wherever provision is made herein for payment of attorneys or counsels fees or expenses incurred by Mortgagee, such provision shall include but not be limited to, such fees or expenses incurred in any and all judicial, bankruptcy, reorganization, administrative, or other proceedings, including appellate proceedings, whether such fees or expenses arise before proceedings are commenced, during such proceedings or after entry of a final judgment.
9.17 Waiver and Agreement Regarding Prepayment.
(a) EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE EXPRESSLY PERMITTED HEREUNDER OR UNDER THE NOTE, MORTGAGOR HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE UNDER APPLICABLE LAW TO PREPAY THE NOTE, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, WITHOUT PREPAYMENT CHARGE, UPON ACCELERATION OF THE MATURITY DATE OF THE NOTE, AND AGREES THAT, EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE EXPRESSLY PERMITTED HEREUNDER OR UNDER THE NOTE, IF FOR ANY REASON A PREPAYMENT OF ALL OR ANY PART OF THE NOTE IS MADE, WHETHER VOLUNTARILY OR FOLLOWING ANY ACCELERATION OF THE MATURITY DATE OF THE NOTE BY MORTGAGEE ON ACCOUNT OF THE OCCURRENCE OF ANY EVENT OF DEFAULT ARISING FOR ANY REASON, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, AS A RESULT OF ANY PROHIBITED OR RESTRICTED TRANSFER, FURTHER ENCUMBRANCE OR DISPOSITION OF THE PROPERTY OR ANY PART THEREOF SECURING THE NOTE, THEN MORTGAGOR SHALL BE OBLIGATED TO PAY, CONCURRENTLY WITH SUCH PREPAYMENT, THE PREPAYMENT PREMIUM PROVIDED FOR IN THE NOTE (OR, IN THE EVENT OF ACCELERATION WHEN THE NOTE IS CLOSED TO PREPAYMENT, AS PROVIDED IN THE DEFINITION OF SECURED OBLIGATIONS SET FORTH IN ARTICLE 1 HEREOF). MORTGAGOR HEREBY DECLARES THAT MORTGAGEES AGREEMENT TO MAKE THE LOAN EVIDENCED BY THE NOTE AT THE INTEREST RATE AND FOR THE TERM SET FORTH IN THE NOTE CONSTITUTES ADEQUATE CONSIDERATION, GIVEN INDIVIDUAL WEIGHT BY MORTGAGOR, FOR THIS WAIVER AND AGREEMENT.
(b) If the maturity of the Note secured by this Mortgage is accelerated, Mortgagor shall pay a prepayment premium in an amount equal to any prepayment premium which would be payable under the terms of the Note as if the Note were prepaid in full on the date of the acceleration. If under the terms of the Note no voluntary prepayment would be permissible on the date of such acceleration, then the prepayment fee or premium shall be equal to one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the highest prepayment fee or premium set forth in the Note, calculated as of the date of such acceleration as if prepayment were permitted on such date.
9.18 Waiver of Jury Trial. MORTGAGEE AND MORTGAGOR KNOWINGLY, IRREVOCABLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT EITHER MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM BASED ON THIS MORTGAGE, OR ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS MORTGAGE OR ANY LOAN DOCUMENT, OR ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT, COURSE OF DEALING, STATEMENT (WHETHER VERBAL OR WRITTEN) OR ACTIONS OF ANY PARTY HERETO OR TO ANY LOAN DOCUMENT.
THIS PROVISION IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR MORTGAGEE AND MORTGAGOR TO ENTER INTO THE LOAN TRANSACTION EVIDENCED BY THE NOTE.
9.19 Governing Laws; Forum.
(a) The substantive laws of the State of Connecticut shall govern the validity, construction, enforcement and interpretation of this Mortgage.
(b) Any legal suit, action or proceeding against Mortgagee or Mortgagor arising out of or relating to this Mortgage may at Mortgagees option be instituted in any federal or state court serving the Town of Orange, the Town of Shelton or the Town of Milford or the County of Fairfield or the County of New Haven, State of Connecticut and Mortgagor waives any objections which it may now or hereafter have based on venue and/or forum non conveniens of any such suit, action or proceeding, and Mortgagor hereby irrevocably submits to the jurisdiction of any such court in any suit, action or proceeding.
9.20 Entire Agreement. This Mortgage, together with the other Loan Documents, contains the entire understanding between the parties to the matters addressed herein, and may not be changed, amended, modified or waived except pursuant to a written agreement executed by the parties, and supersedes any other understandings or agreements with respect to the matters covered hereby.
9.21 Limitation on Liability. The provisions of Section 18(a) and Section 18(b) of the Note are incorporated herein by reference.
9.22 Claims Against Mortgagee. Mortgagee shall not be in default under this Mortgage, or under any of the other Loan Documents, unless a written notice specifically setting forth the claim of Mortgagor shall have been given to Mortgagee within three (3) months after Mortgagor first had knowledge of the occurrence of the event that Mortgagor alleges gave rise to such claim and Mortgagee does not remedy or cure the default, if any there be, promptly thereafter. Mortgagor waives any claim, set-off or defense against Mortgagee arising by reason of any alleged default by Mortgagee as to which Mortgagor does not give such notice timely as aforesaid. Mortgagor acknowledges that such waiver is or may be essential to Mortgagees ability to enforce Mortgagees remedies without delay and that such waiver therefore constitutes a substantial part of the bargain between Mortgagee and Mortgagor with respect to the Loan.
9.23 Acceptance of Cures for Events of Default. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Mortgage or the other Loan Documents, Mortgagee shall in no event or under any circumstance be obligated or required to accept a cure by Mortgagor or by any other person of an Event of Default unless Mortgagee agrees to do so in the exercise of its sole and absolute discretion, it being agreed that once an Event of Default has occurred, Mortgagee shall be absolutely and unconditionally entitled to pursue all rights and remedies available to it under the Loan Documents or otherwise at law or in equity.
ARTICLE 10
CONNECTICUT PROVISIONS
10.1 Principles of Construction. In the event of any inconsistencies between the terms and conditions of this Article 10 and the terms and conditions of this Mortgage, the terms and conditions of this Article 10 shall control and be binding.
10.2 Open-End Mortgage. This is an OPEN-END MORTGAGE made pursuant to and subject to all of the terms and provisions of Section 49-2(c) of the Connecticut General Statutes and the holder hereof shall have all of the rights, powers and protection to which the holder of an OPEN-END MORTGAGE DEED is entitled under Connecticut law. Upon request the Mortgagee may, in its discretion, make future advances to Mortgagor pursuant to the Note, notwithstanding any repayments or prepayments of the outstanding principal balance of the Note. Any such future advance and the interest payable thereon shall be secured by this Mortgage, equally with, and with the same priority over other claims as the original debt secured hereby when evidenced by promissory notes stating that the notes are secured hereby. At no time shall the principal amount of the debt secured by this Mortgage exceed the original loan authorized, nor shall the maturity of any future advance secured hereby extend beyond the maturity of the original mortgage debt as stated in the Note.
10.3 Release. Upon the payment and/or defeasance in full of all principal, interest and other sums due under the Note, this Mortgage and the other Loan Documents in accordance with the terms and conditions of such instruments, Mortgagee shall deliver to Mortgagor, at Mortgagors expense, a release of the lien of this Mortgage, in recordable form.
10.4 COMMERCIAL TRANSACTION. MORTGAGOR ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THE TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREIN IS A COMMERCIAL TRANSACTION WITHIN THE MEANING OF SECTION 52-278A OF THE CONNECTICUT GENERAL STATUTES, AND THAT IN ANY ACTION UPON THIS TRANSACTION, THE LENDER MAY AVAIL ITSELF OF AND PURSUE ITS RIGHTS TO OBTAIN A PREJUDGMENT REMEDY IN ACCORDANCE WITH SECTION 52-278F OF THE CONNECTICUT GENERAL STATUTES. MORTGAGOR HAS BEEN ADVISED BY COUNSEL OF ITS RIGHTS WITH RESPECT TO PREJUDGMENT REMEDIES UNDER CHAPTER 903A OF THE CONNECTICUT GENERAL STATUTES, AS AMENDED, INCLUDING SECTIONS 52-278A ET SEQ. MORTGAGOR HEREBY KNOWINGLY AND WILLINGLY WAIVES TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW ALL RIGHTS OF NOTICE, JUDICIAL HEARING OR PRIOR COURT ORDER IN CONNECTION WITH THE OBTAINING BY MORTGAGEE OF ANY PREJUDGMENT REMEDY WITH RESPECT TO THIS MORTGAGE, OR PURSUANT TO ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS EXECUTED BY MORTGAGOR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS TRANSACTION, INCLUDING ANY AMENDMENTS OR EXTENSIONS HEREOF OR THEREOF. FURTHER, MORTGAGOR WAIVES ANY REQUIREMENT OF LENDER TO POST A BOND OR ANY OTHER SECURITY, OR TO SHOW SOME EXIGENCY, IN CONNECTION WITH THE OBTAINING BY MORTGAGEE OF ANY SUCH PREJUDGMENT REMEDY.
10.5 MORTGAGOR ACKNOWLEDGES, REPRESENTS AND WARRANTS THAT THE LOAN EVIDENCED BY THE NOTE IS FOR COMMERCIAL PURPOSES. MORTGAGOR FURTHER ACKNOWLEDGES, REPRESENTS AND WARRANTS THAT MORTGAGOR IS ENGAGED EXCLUSIVELY IN COMMERCIAL PURSUITS AND THAT THE PROCEEDS OF THE NOTE ARE TO BE UTILIZED IN THE BUSINESS ACTIVITIES OF MORTGAGOR AND WILL NOT BE UTILIZED FOR CONSUMER PURPOSES.

PROMISSORY NOTE
U.S. $2,639,000 |
|
March 8, 2011 |
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, and at all times hereafter specified, WU/LH 950 BRIDGEPORT L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company ( Maker ), having an address at c/o Lighthouse Real Estate Management LLC, 60 Hempstead Avenue, Suite 718, West Hempstead, New York 11552, promises to pay to the order of FIRST SUNAMERICA LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY, a New York corporation, having an address at 1 SunAmerica Center, Century City, Los Angeles, California 90067-6022 (hereinafter referred to, together with each subsequent holder hereof, as Holder ), or at such other address as may be designated from time to time hereafter by any Holder, the principal sum of TWO MILLION SIX HUNDRED THIRTY-NINE THOUSAND AND NO/100THS DOLLARS ($2,639,000), together with interest on the principal balance outstanding from time to time, as hereinafter provided, in lawful money of the United States of America.
By its execution and delivery of this promissory note (this Note ), Maker covenants and agrees as follows:
1. Interest Rate and Payments .
(a) The balance of principal outstanding from time to time under this Note shall bear interest at the rate of five and seventy-six hundredths percent (5.76%) per annum (the Original Interest Rate ), computed on the basis of a three hundred sixty (360) day year composed of twelve (12) months of thirty (30) days each; however, interest for partial months shall be calculated by multiplying the principal balance of this Note by the applicable interest rate (i.e., the Original Interest Rate or the New Rate (hereinafter defined)), dividing the product by three hundred sixty (360), and multiplying that result by the actual number of days elapsed.
(b) Interest only on this Note shall be payable on the date the loan evidenced by this Note (the Loan ) is funded by Holder, in advance, for the period from and including the date hereof through and including March 31, 2011.
(c) Commencing on May 1, 2011 and on the first day of each month thereafter through and including April 1, 2012, (each such date a Interest Only Payment Date ) payments of interest only shall be payable, in arrears, in the amount of $12,667.20.
(d) Commencing on May 1, 2012 and on the first day of each month thereafter through and including the first day of the month immediately preceding the Maturity Date (each such date a Principal and Interest Payment Date and together with any Interest Only Payment Date, referred to herein, collectively, as a Payment Date ), combined payments of principal and interest shall be payable, in arrears, in the amount of $16,618.07 each (such amount representing an amount that would be sufficient to fully amortize the original principal amount of this Note over a twenty-five (25) year period (the Amortization Period ), if such amortization were based on a three hundred sixty (360) day year composed of twelve (12) months of thirty (30) days each).
(e) The entire outstanding principal balance, and all other amounts due under this Note and the other Loan Documents (as hereinafter defined), together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, shall be due and payable in full on April 1, 2018 (the Maturity Date ).
2. Holders Extension Option; Net Operating Income . The provisions of this Section 2 concern the election of Holder to extend the term of the Loan for the Extension Term (as defined below) and certain obligations of Maker during the Extension Term.
(a) If Maker shall fail to pay the outstanding principal balance of this Note and all accrued interest and other charges due hereon and all other amounts due under the Loan Documents, at the Maturity Date, Holder shall have the right, at Holders sole option and discretion, to extend the term of the Loan for an additional period of five (5) years (the Extension Term ) and require Maker to make additional monthly payments of net operating income as provided herein. If Holder elects to extend the term of the Loan, Maker shall pay all fees of Holder incurred in connection with such extension, including, but not limited to, attorneys fees and title insurance premiums. Maker shall execute all documents reasonably requested by Holder to evidence and secure the Loan, as extended, and shall obtain and provide to Holder any title insurance policy or endorsement requested by Holder. If Holder elects to extend the term of the loan for the Extension Term, no Event of Default shall be deemed to exist solely by reason of the failure by Maker to pay such outstanding principal balance of this Note and all accrued interest and other charges due hereunder, and all other amounts due under the Loan Documents, on the Maturity Date.
(b) Should Holder elect to extend the term of the Loan as provided above, Holder shall: (i) reset the interest rate borne by the then-existing principal balance of the Loan to a rate per annum (the New Rate ) equal to the greater of (A) the Original Interest Rate, or (B) Holders (or comparable lenders, if Holder is no longer making such loans) then-prevailing interest rate for five (5) year loans secured by properties similar to the Property (hereinafter defined), as determined by Holder in its sole discretion; (ii) re-amortize the then-existing principal balance of the Loan over the Amortization Period; (iii) have the right to require Maker to enter into modifications of the non-economic terms of the Loan Documents as Holder may request (the Non-Economic Modifications ); and (iv) notwithstanding any provision set forth in the Loan Documents to the contrary, have the right to require Maker to make monthly payments into escrow for insurance premiums and real property taxes, assessments and similar governmental charges. Hence, monthly principal and interest payments during the Extension Term shall be based upon the New Rate, in an amount that would be sufficient to fully amortize the outstanding principal balance of the Loan over the Amortization Period.
(c) If Holder elects to extend the term of the Loan, Holder shall advise Maker of the New Rate on or prior to the Maturity Date, but in no event shall the term be extended unless Holder is entitled to do so under Section 2(a) above.
(d) In addition to the required monthly payments of principal and interest set forth above, commencing on the first day of the second month following the Maturity Date and continuing on the first day of each month thereafter during the Extension Term (each an Additional Payment Date ), Maker shall make monthly payments to Holder in an amount equal to all Net Operating Income (hereinafter defined) attributable to the Property for the calendar month ending on the last day of the month that is two months preceding each such Additional Payment Date.
For example, assuming the Maturity Date is January 1, then Net Operating Income for the period from January 1 through January 31 shall be payable to Holder on March 1; Net Operating Income for the period from February 1 through February 28 shall be payable to Holder on April 1, and so on.
(e) Holder shall deposit all such Net Operating Income received from Maker into an account or accounts maintained at a financial institution chosen by Holder or its Servicer in its sole discretion (the Deposit Account ) and all such funds shall be invested in a manner acceptable to Holder in its sole discretion. All interest, dividends and earnings credited to the Deposit Account shall be held and applied in accordance with the terms hereof.
(f) On the third Additional Payment Date and on each third Additional Payment Date thereafter, Holder shall apply all Excess Funds (hereinafter defined), if any, to prepayment of amounts due under this Note, without premium or penalty.
(g) As security for the repayment of the Loan and the performance of all other obligations of Maker under the Loan Documents, Maker hereby assigns, pledges, conveys, delivers, transfers and grants to Holder a first priority security interest in and to: (i) all Makers right, title and interest in and to the Deposit Account; (ii) all rights to payment from the Deposit Account and the money deposited therein or credited thereto (whether then due or in the future due and whether then or in the future on deposit); (iii) all interest thereon; (iv) any certificates, instruments and securities, if any, representing the Deposit Account; (v) all claims, demands, general intangibles, choses in action and other rights or interests of Maker in respect of the Deposit Account; (vi) any monies then or at any time thereafter deposited therein; and (vii) any increases, renewals, extensions, substitutions and replacements thereof and all proceeds of the foregoing.
(h) From time to time, but not more frequently than monthly, Maker may request a disbursement (a Disbursement ) from the Deposit Account for capital expenses, tenant improvement expenses, leasing commissions and special contingency expenses. Holder may consent to or deny any such Disbursement in its sole discretion.
(i) During the existence of an Event of Default (hereinafter defined), (i) Maker shall not be entitled to any Disbursement from the Deposit Account and (ii) Holder shall be entitled to take immediate possession and control of the Deposit Account (and all funds contained therein) and to pursue all of its rights and remedies available to Holder under the Loan Documents, at law and in equity.
(j) All of the terms and conditions of the Loan shall apply during the Extension Term, except as expressly set forth above, and except that no further extensions of the Loan shall be permitted.
(k) For the purposes of the foregoing:
(i) Excess Funds shall mean, on any Additional Payment Date, the amount of funds then existing in the Deposit Account (including any Net Operating Income due on the applicable Additional Payment Date), less an amount equal to the sum of three regularly scheduled payments of principal and interest due on this Note;
(ii) Net Operating Income shall mean, for any particular period of time, Gross Revenue for the relevant period, less Operating Expenses for the relevant period; provided, however, that if such amount is equal to or less than zero (0), Net Operating Income shall equal zero (0);
(iii) Gross Revenue shall mean all payments and other revenues (exclusive, however, of any payments attributable to sales taxes) received by or on behalf of Maker from all sources related to the ownership or operation of the Property, including, but not limited to, rents, room charges, parking fees, interest, security deposits (unless required to be held in a segregated account), business interruption insurance proceeds, operating expense pass-through revenues, direct expense reimbursements and common area maintenance charges, for the relevant period for which the calculation of Gross Revenue is being made; and
(iv) Operating Expenses shall mean the sum of all ordinary and necessary operating expenses actually paid by Maker in connection with the operation of the Property during the relevant period for which the calculation of Operating Expenses is being made, including, but not limited to, (a) payments made by Maker for taxes and insurance required under the Loan Documents and (b) monthly debt service payments as required under this Note.
3. Budgets During Extension Term .
(a) Within fifteen (15) Business Days (as defined below) following the Maturity Date and on or before December 1 of each subsequent calendar year, Maker shall deliver to Holder a proposed revenue and expense budget for the Property for the remainder of the calendar year in which the Maturity Date occurs or the immediately succeeding calendar year (as applicable). Such budget shall set forth Makers projection of Gross Revenue and Operating Expenses for the applicable calendar year, which shall be subject to Holders reasonable approval. Once a proposed budget has been reviewed and approved by Holder, and Maker has made all revisions requested by Holder, if any, the revised budget shall be delivered to Holder and shall thereafter become the budget for the Property hereunder (any such budget referred to as the Budget ) for the applicable calendar year. If Maker and Holder are unable to agree upon a Budget for any calendar year, the budgeted Operating Expenses (excluding extraordinary items) provided in the Budget for the Property for the preceding calendar year shall be considered the Budget for the Property for the subject calendar year until Maker and Holder agree upon a new Budget for such calendar year.
(b) During the Extension Term, Maker shall operate the Property in accordance with the applicable Budget for the applicable calendar year, and the total of expenditures relating to the Property exceeding one hundred and five percent (105%) of the aggregate of such expenses set forth in the applicable Budget for the applicable time period shall not be treated as Operating Expenses for the purposes of calculating Net Operating Income, without the prior written consent of Holder except for emergency expenditures which, in Makers good faith judgment, are reasonably necessary to protect, or avoid immediate danger to, life or property.
4. Reports During Extension Term .
(a) During the Extension Term, Maker shall deliver to Holder all financial statements reasonably required by Holder to calculate Net Operating Income, including, without limitation, a monthly statement to be delivered to Holder concurrently with Makers payment of Net Operating Income that sets forth the amount of Net Operating Income accompanying such statement and Makers calculation of Net Operating Income for the relevant calendar month. Such statements shall be certified by an executive officer of Maker or Makers manager, managing member or general partner (as applicable) as having been prepared in accordance with the terms hereof and to be true, accurate and complete in all material respects.
(b) In addition, on or before February 1 of each calendar year during the Extension Term, Maker shall submit to Holder an annual income and expense statement for the Property which shall include the calculation of Gross Revenue, Operating Expenses and Net Operating Income for the preceding calendar year and shall be accompanied by Makers reconciliation of any difference between the actual aggregate amount of the Net Operating Income for such calendar year and the aggregate amount of Net Operating Income for such calendar year actually remitted to Holder. All such statements shall be certified by an executive officer of Maker or Makers manager, managing member or general partner (as applicable) as having been prepared in accordance with the terms hereof and to be true, accurate and complete in all material respects. If any such annual financial statement discloses any inconsistency between the calculation of Net Operating Income and the amount of Net Operating Income actually remitted to Holder, Maker shall immediately remit to Holder the amount of any underpayment of Net Operating Income for such calendar year or, in the event of an overpayment by Maker, such amount may be withheld from any subsequent payment of Net Operating Income required hereunder.
(c) Holder may notify Maker within ninety (90) days after receipt of any statement or report required hereunder that Holder disputes any computation or item contained in any portion of such statement or report. If Holder so notifies Maker, Holder and Maker shall meet in good faith within twenty (20) days after Holders notice to Maker to resolve such disputed items. If, despite such good faith efforts, the parties are unable to resolve the dispute at such meeting or within ten (10) days thereafter, the items shall be resolved by an independent certified public accountant designated by Holder within fifteen (15) days after such ten (10) day period. The determination of such accountant shall be final. All fees of such accountant shall be paid by Maker. Maker shall remit to Holder any additional amount of Net Operating Income found to be due for such periods within ten (10) days after the resolution of such dispute by the parties or the accountants determination, as applicable. The amount of any overpayment found to have been made for such periods may be withheld from any required future remittance of Net Operating Income.
(d) Maker shall at all times keep and maintain full and accurate books of account and records adequate to reflect correctly all items required in order to calculate Net Operating Income.
5. Prepayment
(a) Maker shall have no right to prepay all or any part of this Note prior to the date that is the last day of the forty-second (42) month following the date of this Note (the Lockout Expiration Date ).
(b) At any time following the Lockout Expiration Date, Maker shall have the right to prepay the full principal amount of this Note, and all other amounts due under this Note and the other Loan Documents, and all accrued but unpaid interest thereon as of the date of prepayment, provided that (i) Maker gives not less than thirty (30) days prior written notice to Holder of Makers election to prepay this Note, (ii) Maker pays a prepayment premium to Holder equal to the greater of (A) one percent (1%) of the outstanding principal amount of this Note or (B) the Present Value of this Note (hereinafter defined), less the amount of principal being prepaid, calculated as of the prepayment date and (iii) Maker prepays each of the other Additional Notes (as such term is defined in the Mortgage) and all other amounts due under the Additional Notes and the other Additional Loan Documents (as such term is defined in the Mortgage), and all accrued but unpaid interest thereon as of the date of prepayment.
(c) Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 5 , no prepayment premium shall be due (i) in connection with any involuntary prepayment due to the Holders application of any insurance proceeds or condemnation awards to the principal balance of the Loan or (ii) if Maker provides additional funds to prepay the Loan in connection with the application of any insurance proceeds or condemnation awards to the principal balance of the Loan following any casualty or condemnation; provided, in any such case, that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such application of insurance proceeds or condemnation awards.
(d) Holder shall notify Maker in writing of the amount and basis of determination of the prepayment premium. Holder shall not be obligated to accept any prepayment of the principal balance of this Note unless such prepayment is accompanied by (i) the applicable prepayment premium, (ii) the outstanding principal balance of the Loan, (iii) all accrued interest and other sums due under this Note and all other amounts due under the Loan Documents and (iv) the outstanding principal balance of the Additional Loans (as such term is defined in the Mortgage) all accrued interest and other sums due under the Additional Notes and all other amounts due under the Additional Loan Documents. Maker may not prepay the Loan on a Friday, nor on any public holiday or the equivalent for banks generally under the laws of the State of New York or on any day preceding a public holiday, or the equivalent for banks generally under the laws of the State of New York.
(e) Except for making payments of Net Operating Income as required above, and except for the application of insurance proceeds or condemnation awards to the principal balance of this Note, as provided in the Mortgage (hereinafter defined), in no event shall Maker be permitted to make any partial prepayments of this Note.
(f) If Holder accelerates this Note for any reason, then in addition to Makers obligation to pay the then outstanding principal balance of this Note and all accrued but unpaid interest thereon, Maker shall pay an additional amount equal to the prepayment premium that would be due to Holder if Maker were voluntarily prepaying this Note at the time that such acceleration occurred, or if under the terms hereof no voluntary prepayment would be permissible on the date of such acceleration, Maker shall pay a prepayment premium equal to 150% of the highest prepayment premium set forth in this Note, calculated as of the date of such acceleration as if prepayment were permitted on such date.
(g) For the purposes of the foregoing:
(i) The Present Value of this Note with respect to any prepayment of this Note, as of any date, shall be determined by discounting all scheduled payments of principal and interest remaining to maturity of this Note, attributed to the amount being prepaid, at the Discount Rate. If prepayment occurs on a date other than a Payment Date, the actual number of days remaining from the prepayment date to the next Payment Date will be used to calculate such discount within such period;
(ii) The Discount Rate is the rate which, when compounded monthly, is equivalent to the Treasury Rate, when compounded semi-annually;
(iii) The Treasury Rate is the semi-annual yield on the Treasury Constant Maturity Series with maturity equal to the remaining weighted average life of this Note, for the week prior to the prepayment date, as reported in Federal Reserve Statistical Release H. 15 - Selected Interest Rates, conclusively determined by Holder on the prepayment date. The rate will be determined by linear interpolation between the yields reported in Release H.15, if necessary. In the event Release H.15 is no longer published, Holder shall select a comparable publication to determine the Treasury Rate.
(h) Holder shall not be obligated actually to reinvest the amount prepaid in any treasury obligations as a condition precedent to receiving any prepayment premium.
(i) Notwithstanding the foregoing, (A) at any time during the Extension Term, Maker shall have the right to prepay in full, but not in part, the principal amount of this Note and all accrued but unpaid interest thereon as of the date of prepayment, without prepayment premium thereon and (B) no prepayment premium shall be due in connection with the prepayment of the full principal amount of this Note, and all other amounts due under this Note and the other Loan Documents, and all accrued but unpaid interest thereon as of the date of prepayment, during the ninety (90) day period prior to the Maturity Date.
6. Payments . Whenever any payment to be made under this Note shall be stated to be due on a Saturday, Sunday or public holiday or the equivalent for banks generally under the laws of the State of New York (any other day being a Business Day ), such payment may be made on the next succeeding Business Day.
7. Default Rate .
(a) The entire balance of principal, interest, and any other sums due under this Note and the other Loan Documents upon the maturity hereof, by acceleration or otherwise, shall bear interest from the date due until paid at the greater of (i) eighteen percent (18%) per annum and (ii) a per annum rate equal to four percent (4%) over the prime rate published in The Wall Street Journal on the first business day of each month (the Default Rate ); provided, however, that such rate shall not exceed the maximum permitted by applicable state or federal law.
In the event The Wall Street Journal is no longer published or no longer publishes such prime rate, Holder shall select a comparable reference.
(b) If any payment under this Note or any of the Additional Notes is not made when due, interest shall accrue at the Default Rate from the date such payment was due until payment is actually made.
8. Late Charges . In addition to interest as set forth herein, Maker shall pay to Holder a late charge equal to four percent (4%) of any amounts due under this Note in the event any such amount is not paid when due. Notwithstanding the foregoing provision, Holder will allow for one (1) five (5) day grace period upon monetary default without the obligation of paying a late charge in any twelve (12) month period during the term of the Loan.
9. Application of Payments . All payments hereunder shall be applied in the following order: (i) first, to the payment of late charges, if any; (ii) second, to the payment of prepayment premiums, if any; (iii) third, to the repayment of any sums advanced by Holder for the payment of any insurance premiums, taxes, assessments or other charges against the Property securing this Note and any other costs and expenses incurred by Holder in accordance with the Loan Documents (together with interest thereon at the Default Rate from the date of advance until repaid), if any; (iv) fourth; to the payment of accrued and unpaid interest and other amounts due and payable under the Loan Documents (other than principal), if any; and (v) fifth, to the reduction of principal. Notwithstanding the foregoing, for so long as any Event of Default is continuing, Holder shall have the continuing right to apply any payment received by Holder from or on behalf of Maker as Holder may elect against the due and owing obligations of Maker under the Note and the other Loan Documents in such order of priority or in such allocations as Holder may deem advisable in its sole and absolute discretion.
10. Immediately Available Funds . All payments under this Note shall be payable in immediately available funds without setoff, counterclaim or deduction of any kind, and shall be made by electronic funds transfer from a bank account established and maintained by Maker for such purpose.
11. Security . This Note is secured by, among other things, (i) that certain (a) Open-End Mortgage, Assignment of Leases and Rents, Security Agreement and Fixture Filing, of even date herewith, granted by Maker for the benefit of Holder (the Mortgage ) encumbering certain real property and improvements located at 950 Bridgeport Avenue, Milford, Connecticut 06460, as more particularly described in the Mortgage (the Property ), (ii) a Guaranty Agreement from Paul Cooper, Jeffrey Ravetz and Louis Sheinker (collectively, Guarantors ), in favor of Holder (the Guaranty ) and (iii) the Affiliate Guaranty (as such term is defined in the Mortgage).
12. Certain Definitions . Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings set forth in the Mortgage.
13. Event of Default . Each of the following events will constitute an event of default (an Event of Default ) under this Note and under the Mortgage and each other document evidencing or securing or executed in connection with the Loan (collectively, the Loan Documents ), and any Event of Default under any Loan Document shall constitute an Event of Default hereunder and under each of the other Loan Documents:
(a) any failure to pay when due any interest, principal or other amount in a sum certain under this Note or under any of the other Loan Documents for which sum there is a scheduled date for payment or for which there is a date certain for payment.
(b) any failure to pay within ten (10) days following demand by Holder for any amount other than any amount described in Section 13(a) above; or
(c) any failure of Maker to properly perform any obligation contained herein or in any of the other Loan Documents (other than the obligation to make payments under this Note or the other Loan Documents) and the continuance of such failure for a period of thirty (30) days following written notice thereof from Holder to Maker; provided, however, that if such failure is not curable within such thirty (30) day period, then, so long as Maker commences to cure such failure within such thirty (30) day period and is continually and diligently attempting to cure to completion, such failure shall not be an Event of Default unless such failure remains uncured for one hundred twenty (120) days after such written notice to Maker; or
(d) if, at any time during the Extension Term, Gross Revenue for any calendar month shall be less than ninety-three percent (93%) of the amount of projected Gross Revenue for such month set forth in the applicable Budget; or
(e) the occurrence of any event that is deemed to be an Event of Default under any provision of this Note, the Mortgage, the Affiliate Guaranty any other Loan Document or any Additional Loan Document.
14. Acceleration . If at any time an Event of Default exists, the entire balance of principal, accrued interest and other sums owing hereunder shall, at the option of Holder, become at once due and payable without notice or demand. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default described in Section 13(d) hereof, Holder shall have the option, in its sole and absolute discretion, to either (a) exercise any remedies available to Holder under the Loan Documents, at law or in equity, or (b) require Maker to submit a new proposed budget for Holders approval. If Holder agrees to accept such new proposed budget, then such budget shall become the Budget for all purposes hereunder. If an Event of Default exists, Holder may exercise any right, power or remedy permitted by law or set forth herein or in the Mortgage or any other Loan Document.
15. Conditions Precedent . Maker hereby certifies and declares that all acts, conditions and things required to be done or performed or have happened precedent to the creation and issuance of this Note, and in order to constitute this Note the legal, valid and binding obligation of Maker, enforceable in accordance with the terms hereof, have been done or performed or have happened in due and strict compliance with all applicable laws.
16. Certain Waivers and Consents . Maker and all parties now or hereafter liable for the payment hereof, primarily or secondarily, directly or indirectly, and whether as endorser, guarantor, surety, or otherwise, hereby severally (a) waive presentment, demand, protest, notice of protest and/or dishonor, and all other demands or notices of any sort whatever with respect to this Note, (b) consent to impairment or release of collateral, extensions of time for payment, and acceptance of partial payments before, at, or after maturity, (c) waive any right to require Holder to proceed against any security for this Note before proceeding hereunder, (d) waive diligence in the collection of this Note or in filing suit on this Note and (e) agree to pay all out-of-pocket costs and expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys fees, which may be actually incurred in the collection of this Note or any part thereof or in preserving, securing possession of and realizing upon any security for this Note.
17. Usury Savings Clause . The provisions of this Note and of all agreements between Maker and Holder are, whether now existing or hereinafter made, hereby expressly limited so that in no contingency or event whatsoever, whether by reason of acceleration of the maturity hereof, prepayment, demand for payment or otherwise, shall the amount paid, or agreed to be paid, to Holder for the use, forbearance or detention of the principal hereof or interest hereon, which remains unpaid from time to time, exceed the maximum amount permissible under applicable law. In particular, it is the intention of the parties hereto to conform strictly to Connecticut and Federal law, whichever is applicable. If as a result of any circumstance whatsoever, the performance or fulfillment of any provision hereof or of any other agreement between Maker and Holder pertaining to the subject matter hereof shall, at the time performance or fulfillment of such provision is due, involve or purport to require any payment in excess of the limits then prescribed by applicable law, then the obligation to be performed or fulfilled shall hereby be reduced to such limit as to be valid under such applicable law, and if as a result of any circumstance whatsoever, Holder should receive as interest under this Note an amount which would exceed the then highest lawful rate, the amount by which such interest payment would exceed such highest lawful rate shall be applied to the reduction of the principal balance owing hereunder without prepayment or penalty (or, at Holders option, be paid to Maker) and in no event shall be counted as interest. To the fullest extent permitted by then applicable law, the determination of the legal maximum amount of interest shall at any and all times be made by amortizing, prorating, allocating and spreading in equal parts over the period of the full stated term of this Note, all interest at any time contracted for, charged or received from Maker in connection with this Note and all other agreements between Maker and Holder pertaining to the subject matter hereof, so that the actual rate of interest on account of the indebtedness represented by this Note is uniform throughout the term hereof and complies with all applicable law.
18. Non-Recourse; Exceptions to Non-Recourse .
(a) Nothing contained in the Loan Documents shall be deemed to impair, limit or prejudice Holders rights in foreclosure proceedings or in any ancillary proceedings brought to facilitate Holders foreclosure on the Property or any portion thereof or to exercise any specific rights or remedies afforded Holder under any other provisions of the Loan Documents or by law or in equity, subject to the non-recourse provisions set forth below, to recover under any guarantee given in connection with the Loan or to pursue any personal liability of Maker or any Guarantor under the Guaranty Agreement, the Environmental Indemnity Agreement or the ERISA indemnity provisions of the Mortgage. Except as expressly hereinafter set forth, the recourse of Holder with respect to the obligations evidenced by this Note, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents (except for the Guaranty and the Environmental Indemnity Agreement) shall be solely to the Property, Chattels and Intangible Personalty (as such terms are defined in the Mortgage).
Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary contained in this Note, the Mortgage or in any other Loan Document, nothing shall be deemed in any way to impair, limit or prejudice the rights of Holder to collect or recover from Maker (but not any member, manager, officer, director or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing, with the exclusion of the Guarantors) and Guarantors: (i) damages or costs (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys fees) incurred by Holder as a result of any intentional waste by Maker; (ii) any condemnation award or insurance proceeds attributable to the Property which were not paid to Holder or used to restore the Property in accordance with the terms of the Mortgage; (iii) any Rents, profits, security deposits, advances, rebates, prepaid rents or other similar sums attributable to the Property collected by or for Maker (x) following an Event of Default under any Loan Document and not properly applied to the reasonable fixed and operating expenses of the Property, including, without limitation, payments due on this Note and other sums due under the Loan Documents or (y) to the extent not deposited into the Lockbox Account; (iv) any security deposits collected by or for Maker and not applied in accordance with the applicable Leases (as such term is defined in the Mortgage); (v) the amount of any accrued taxes, assessments, and/or utility charges affecting the Property (whether or not the same have been billed to Maker) that are either unpaid by Maker or advanced by Holder under the Mortgage, except, in respect of the Property, to the extent of any of the foregoing accruing after the Termination Date (as hereinafter defined) with respect to the Property; (vi) any sums expended by Holder in fulfilling the obligations of Maker, as lessor, under any Lease affecting the Property; (vii) the amount of any loss suffered by Holder (that would otherwise be covered by insurance and available to Holder in accordance with the Loan Documents) as a result of Makers failure to maintain any insurance required under the terms of any Loan Document; and (viii) losses, damages and costs (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys fees) incurred by Holder as a result of any fraud of material misrepresentation by Maker in connection with the Property or any of the Loan Documents. For the avoidance of doubt, the matters set forth in this paragraph (a) shall be fully recourse to Maker (but not any member, manager, officer, director or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing, with the exclusion of the Guarantors) and Guarantor. For the purposes of this Section 18(a) , the Termination Date is, in respect of the Property, the earliest of (x) the date that Maker tenders to Holder or Holders designee a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure in respect of the Property, subject to no title exceptions other than real estate taxes and assessments, the Permitted Exceptions (as defined in the applicable Mortgage) and such additional exceptions approved by Holder pursuant to the Loan Documents or which are otherwise acceptable to Holder in its reasonable discretion, together with such ancillary conveyances, releases and other documentation that are customarily delivered in connection with a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure transaction, all in form reasonably satisfactory to Holder, and such deed-in-lieu of foreclosure is accepted by Holder in its sole discretion (y) the date that Maker tenders to Holder a stipulation to entry of judgment of foreclosure in respect of the Property, and (z) the date Holder, any Affiliate of Holder, or any other party takes title to the Property in connection with a foreclosure of the applicable Mortgage that encumbers the Property. If Maker elects to deliver a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure in respect of the Property, Holder shall retain the right to determine whether to accept such deed-in-lieu of foreclosure or to proceed with foreclosure proceedings and, upon Holder making such election, Maker shall execute and deliver to Holder an appropriate deed-in-lieu of foreclosure in respect of the Property, as Holder shall have elected; provided, however, that if Holder chooses to proceed with foreclosure proceedings in respect of the Property, the Termination Date shall nonetheless be the earliest of the date specified in clause (x), (y) and (z) above, provided further that if Maker thereafter fails to cooperate with Holder in respect of Holders exercise of any and all remedies available at law or in equity to Holder (including, without limitation, foreclosure), then the Termination Date shall be the earlier of the date specified in clause (y) or (z) above.
(b) The agreement contained in this Section 18 to limit the personal liability of Maker to its interest in the Property, Chattels and Intangible Personalty shall become null and void and be of no further force and effect, and Maker (but not any member, manager, officer, director or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing, with the exclusion of the Guarantors) and Guarantors shall be personally liable for the repayment of the Secured Obligations (as such term is defined in the Mortgage) in the event (i) that the Property, or any part thereof or any interest therein, or any interest in Maker, or any of them, shall be further encumbered by a voluntary lien securing any obligation upon which Maker, or any of them, any direct or indirect general partner, manager or managing member such Maker, any Guarantor, any of the Mortgagor Control Persons (as defined in the Mortgage) or any principal or affiliate of Maker, or any of them, shall be personally liable for repayment, either as obligor or guarantor, (ii) of any breach or violation of Section 5.4, 5.5 or 5.7 of the Mortgage, (iii) that Maker forfeits the Property or the Chattels or any portion of the Property or Chattels due to criminal activity, (iv) any attempt by Maker, any Guarantor or any Mortgagor Owner Person (as defined in the Mortgage) to materially delay any foreclosure against the Property, Chattels and/or Intangible Personalty, or any portion of the Property, the Chattels and/or the Intangible Personalty or any other exercise by Holder of its remedies under the Loan Documents, which attempts shall (x) include, without limitation, (A) any claim made by Maker that any Loan Document is invalid or unenforceable to an extent that would preclude any such foreclosure or other exercise of remedies, (B) Maker filing a petition in bankruptcy, Maker acquiescing in an involuntary bankruptcy proceeding, Maker failing to oppose in good faith the entry of an order for relief pursuant to any involuntary bankruptcy filed against it, or Maker filing a petition or answer seeking any reorganization, arrangement, composition, readjustment, liquidation, dissolution or similar relief under the bankruptcy laws of the United States or under any other similar federal, state or other statute relating to relief from indebtedness (whether filed by or against Maker), or (C) the appointment of a receiver, trustee or liquidator by Maker, any Guarantor or any Mortgagor Owner Person with respect to Maker or the Property or any part thereof and (y) shall not include a defense to a foreclosure that is (A) not frivolous and is advanced in good faith and (B) based upon a default by Holder under terms of the Loan Documents, or (v) any execution, amendment, modification or early termination of any Lease of any Required Tenant made in violation of the Loan Documents. For the avoidance of doubt, no such termination of any Lease shall excuse Maker from the performance of its obligations under the Loan Documents. For purposes of the foregoing, affiliate shall have the meaning ascribed to the term Affiliate in the Mortgage.
19. Severability . If any provision hereof or of any other document securing or otherwise related to the indebtedness evidenced hereby is, for any reason and to any extent, deemed invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction or with respect to any person, entity or circumstances, then neither the remainder of the document in which such provision is contained, nor the application of such provision in respect of other persons, entities, or circumstances, nor any other document referred to herein, shall be affected by such invalidity or lack of enforceability, but, instead, shall be enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by law.
20. Transfer of Note . Each provision of this Note shall be and remain in full force and effect notwithstanding any negotiation or transfer hereof and any interest herein to any other Holder or participant.
21. Governing Law . Regardless of the place of its execution, this Note shall be construed and enforced in accordance with the substantive laws of the State of Connecticut.
22. Time of Essence . Time is of the essence of this Note.
23. Remedies Cumulative . The remedies provided to Holder in this Note, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents are cumulative and concurrent and may be exercised singly, successively or jointly against Maker, the Property, and other security, or against Guarantors or any obligor under, or guarantor of, this Note or the other Loan Documents, at the sole and absolute discretion of Holder.
24. No Waiver . Holder shall not by any act or omission be deemed to have waived any of its rights or remedies hereunder unless such waiver is in writing and signed by Holder and then only to the extent specifically set forth therein. A waiver of one event shall not be construed as continuing or as a bar to or waiver of any right or remedy granted to Holder hereunder in connection with a subsequent event.
25. Joint and Several Obligation . If Maker is more than one person or entity, then: (a) all persons or entities comprising Maker are jointly and severally liable for all of Makers obligations hereunder; (b) all representations, warranties and covenants made by Maker shall be deemed representations, warranties and covenants of each of the persons or entities comprising Maker; (c) any breach, Default or Event of Default by any of the persons or entities comprising Maker hereunder shall be deemed to be a breach, Default or Event of Default of Maker; and (d) any reference herein contained to the knowledge or awareness of Maker shall mean the knowledge or awareness of any of the persons or entities comprising Maker.
26. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL . MAKER AND HOLDER KNOWINGLY, IRREVOCABLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT EITHER MAKER OR HOLDER MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM BASED ON THIS NOTE, OR ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS NOTE, THE MORTGAGE, OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS OR ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT, COURSE OF DEALING, STATEMENT (WHETHER VERBAL OR WRITTEN) OR ACTIONS OF ANY PARTY HERETO OR TO ANY LOAN DOCUMENT. THIS PROVISION IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR MAKER AND HOLDER TO ENTER INTO THE LOAN TRANSACTION EVIDENCED BY THIS NOTE.

For the purposes of this Section 18(a) , the Termination Date is, in respect of the Property, the earliest of (x) the date that Maker tenders to Holder or Holders designee a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure in respect of the Property, subject to no title exceptions other than real estate taxes and assessments, the Permitted Exceptions (as defined in the applicable Mortgage) and such additional exceptions approved by Holder pursuant to the Loan Documents or which are otherwise acceptable to Holder in its reasonable discretion, together with such ancillary conveyances, releases and other documentation that are customarily delivered in connection with a deed-in-
lieu of foreclosure transaction, all in form reasonably satisfactory to Holder, and such deed-in-lieu of foreclosure is accepted by Holder in its sole discretion (y) the date that Maker tenders to Holder a stipulation to entry of judgment of foreclosure in respect of the Property, and (z) the date Holder, any Affiliate of Holder, or any other party takes title to the Property in connection with a foreclosure of the applicable Mortgage that encumbers the Property. If Maker elects to deliver a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure in respect of the Property, Holder shall retain the right to determine whether to accept such deed-in-lieu of foreclosure or to proceed with foreclosure proceedings and, upon Holder making such election, Maker shall execute and deliver to Holder an appropriate deed-in-lieu of foreclosure in respect of the Property, as Holder shall have elected; provided, however, that if Holder chooses to proceed with foreclosure proceedings in respect of the Property, the Termination Date shall nonetheless be the earliest of the date specified in clause (x), (y) and (z) above, provided further that if Maker thereafter fails to cooperate with Holder in respect of Holders exercise of any and all remedies available at law or in equity to Holder (including, without limitation, foreclosure), then the Termination Date shall be the earlier of the date specified in clause (y) or (z) above.
(d) Section 18(b) of the Note shall be amended and restated as follows:
(b) The agreement contained in this Section 18 to limit the personal liability of Maker to its interest in the Property, Chattels and Intangible Personalty shall become null and void and be of no further force and effect, and Maker (but not any member, manager, officer, director or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing, with the exclusion of the Guarantors) and Guarantors shall be personally liable for the repayment of the Secured Obligations (as such term is defined in the Mortgage) in the event (i) that the Property, or any part thereof or any interest therein, or any interest in Maker, or any of them, shall be further encumbered by a voluntary lien securing any obligation upon which Maker, or any of them, any direct or indirect general partner, manager or managing member such Maker, any Guarantor, any of the Mortgagor Control Persons (as defined in the Mortgage) or any principal or affiliate of Maker, or any of them, shall be personally liable for repayment, either as obligor or guarantor, (ii) of any breach or violation of Section 5.4, 5.5 or 5.7 of the Mortgage, (iii) that Maker forfeits the Property or the Chattels or any portion of the Property or Chattels due to criminal activity, (iv) any attempt by Maker, any Guarantor or any Mortgagor Owner Person (as defined in the Mortgage) to materially delay any foreclosure against the Property, Chattels and/or Intangible Personalty, or any portion of the Property, the Chattels and/or the Intangible Personalty or any other exercise by Holder of its remedies under the Loan Documents, which attempts shall (x) include, without limitation, (A) any claim made by Maker that any Loan Document is invalid or unenforceable to an extent that would preclude any such foreclosure or other exercise of remedies, (B) Maker filing a petition in bankruptcy, Maker acquiescing in an involuntary bankruptcy proceeding, Maker failing to oppose in good faith the entry of an order for relief pursuant to any involuntary bankruptcy
filed against it, or Maker filing a petition or answer seeking any reorganization, arrangement, composition, readjustment, liquidation, dissolution or similar relief under the bankruptcy laws of the United States or under any other similar federal, state or other statute relating to relief from indebtedness (whether filed by or against Maker), or (C) the appointment of a receiver, trustee or liquidator by Maker, any Guarantor or any Mortgagor Owner Person with respect to Maker or the Property or any part thereof and (y) shall not include a defense to a foreclosure that is (A) not frivolous and is advanced in good faith and (B) based upon a default by Holder under terms of the Loan Documents, or (v) any execution, amendment, modification, assignment or early termination of any Lease of any Required Tenant made in violation of the Loan Documents.

PROMISSORY NOTE
U.S. $2,716,700 |
March 8, 2011 |
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, and at all times hereafter specified, WU/LH 22 MARSH HILL L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company (Maker), having an address at c/o Lighthouse Real Estate Management LLC, 60 Hempstead Avenue, Suite 718, West Hempstead, New York 11552, promises to pay to the order of FIRST SUNAMERICA LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY, a New York corporation, having an address at 1 SunArnerica Center, Century City, Los Angeles, California 90067-6022 (hereinafter referred to, together with each subsequent holder hereof, as Holder ), or at such other address as may be designated from time to time hereafter by any Holder, the principal sum of TWO MILLION SEVEN HUNDRED SIXTEEN THOUSAND SEVEN HUNDRED AND NO/100THS DOLLARS ($2,716,700), together with interest on the principal balance outstanding from time to time, as hereinafter provided, in lawful money of the United States of America.
By its execution and delivery of this promissory note (this Note ), Maker covenants and agrees as follows:
1. Interest Rate and Payments .
(a) The balance of principal outstanding from time to time under this Note shall bear interest at the rate of five and seventy-six hundredths percent (5.76%) per annum (the Original Interest Rate ), computed on the basis of a three hundred sixty (360) day year composed of twelve (12) months of thirty (30) days each; however, interest for partial months shall be calculated by multiplying the principal balance of this Note by the applicable interest rate (i.e., the Original Interest Rate or the New Rate (hereinafter defined)), dividing the product by three hundred sixty (360), and multiplying that result by the actual number of days elapsed.
(b) Interest only on this Note shall be payable on the date the loan evidenced by this Note (the Loan ) is funded by Holder, in advance, for the period from and including the date hereof through and including March 31, 2011.
(c) Commencing on May 1, 2011 and on the first day of each month thereafter through and including April 1, 2012, (each such date a Interest Only Payment Date ) payments of interest only shall be payable, in arrears, in the amount of $13,040.16.
(d) Commencing on May 1, 2012 and on the first day of each month thereafter through and including the first day of the month immediately preceding the Maturity Date (each such date a Principal and Interest Payment Date and together with any Interest Only Payment Date, referred to herein, collectively, as a Payment Date ), combined payments of principal and interest shall be payable, in arrears, in the amount of $17,107.35 each (such amount representing an amount that would be sufficient to fully amortize the original principal amount of this Note over a twenty-five (25) year period (the Amortization Period ), if such amortization were based on a three hundred sixty (360) day year composed of twelve (12) months of thirty (30) days each).
(e) The entire outstanding principal balance, and all other amounts due under this Note and the other Loan Documents (as hereinafter defined), together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, shall be due and payable in full on April 1, 2018 (the Maturity Date ).
2. Holders Extension Option; Net Operating Income . The provisions of this Section 2 concern the election of Holder to extend the term of the Loan for the Extension Term (as defined below) and certain obligations of Maker during the Extension Term.
(a) If Maker shall fail to pay the outstanding principal balance of this Note and all accrued interest and other charges due hereon and all other amounts due under the Loan Documents, at the Maturity Date, Holder shall have the right, at Holders sole option and discretion, to extend the term of the Loan for an additional period of five (5) years (the Extension Term ) and require Maker to make additional monthly payments of net operating income as provided herein. If Holder elects to extend the term of the Loan, Maker shall pay all fees of Holder incurred in connection with such extension, including, but not limited to, attorneys fees and title insurance premiums. Maker shall execute all documents reasonably requested by Holder to evidence and secure the Loan, as extended, and shall obtain and provide to Holder any title insurance policy or endorsement requested by Holder. If Holder elects to extend the term of the loan for the Extension Term, no Event of Default shall be deemed to exist solely by reason of the failure by Maker to pay such outstanding principal balance of this Note and all accrued interest and other charges due hereunder, and all other amounts due under the Loan Documents, on the Maturity Date.
(b) Should Holder elect to extend the term of the Loan as provided above, Holder shall: (i) reset the interest rate borne by the then-existing principal balance of the Loan to a rate per annum (the New Rate ) equal to the greater of (A) the Original Interest Rate, or (B) Holders (or comparable lenders, if Holder is no longer making such loans) then-prevailing interest rate for five (5) year loans secured by properties similar to the Property (hereinafter defined), as determined by Holder in its sole discretion; (ii) re-amortize the then-existing principal balance of the Loan over the Amortization Period; (iii) have the right to require Maker to enter into modifications of the non-economic terms of the Loan Documents as Holder may request (the Non-Economic Modifications ); and (iv) notwithstanding any provision set forth in the Loan Documents to the contrary, have the right to require Maker to make monthly payments into escrow for insurance premiums and real property taxes, assessments and similar governmental charges. Hence, monthly principal and interest payments during the Extension Term shall be based upon the New Rate, in an amount that would be sufficient to fully amortize the outstanding principal balance of the Loan over the Amortization Period.
(c) If Holder elects to extend the term of the Loan, Holder shall advise Maker of the New Rate on or prior to the Maturity Date, but in no event shall the term be extended unless Holder is entitled to do so under Section 2(a) above.
(d) In addition to the required monthly payments of principal and interest set forth above, commencing on the first day of the second month following the Maturity Date and continuing on the first day of each month thereafter during the Extension Term (each an Additional Payment Date ), Maker shall make monthly payments to Holder in an
amount equal to all Net Operating Income (hereinafter defined) attributable to the Property for the calendar month ending on the last day of the month that is two months preceding each such Additional Payment Date. For example, assuming the Maturity Date is January 1, then Net Operating Income for the period from January 1 through January 31 shall be payable to Holder on March 1; Net Operating Income for the period from February 1 through February 28 shall be payable to Holder on April 1, and so on.
(e) Holder shall deposit all such Net Operating Income received from Maker into an account or accounts maintained at a financial institution chosen by Holder or its Servicer in its sole discretion (the Deposit Account ) and all such funds shall be invested in a manner acceptable to Holder in its sole discretion. All interest, dividends and earnings credited to the Deposit Account shall be held and applied in accordance with the terms hereof.
(f) On the third Additional Payment Date and on each third Additional Payment Date thereafter, Holder shall apply all Excess Funds (hereinafter defined), if any, to prepayment of amounts due under this Note, without premium or penalty.
(g) As security for the repayment of the Loan and the performance of all other obligations of Maker under the Loan Documents, Maker hereby assigns, pledges, conveys, delivers, transfers and grants to Holder a first priority security interest in and to: (i) all Makers right, title and interest in and to the Deposit Account; (ii) all rights to payment from the Deposit Account and the money deposited therein or credited thereto (whether then due or in the future due and whether then or in the future on deposit); (iii) all interest thereon; (iv) any certificates, instruments and securities, if any, representing the Deposit Account; (v) all claims, demands, general intangibles, chosen in action and other rights or interests of Maker in respect of the Deposit Account; (vi) any monies then or at any time thereafter deposited therein; and (vii) any increases, renewals, extensions, substitutions and replacements thereof and all proceeds of the foregoing.
(h) From time to time, but not more frequently than monthly, Maker may request a disbursement (a Disbursement ) from the Deposit Account for capital expenses, tenant improvement expenses, leasing commissions and special contingency expenses. Holder may consent to or deny any such Disbursement in its sole discretion.
(i) During the existence of an Event of Default (hereinafter defined), (i) Maker shall not be entitled to any Disbursement from the Deposit Account and (ii) Holder shall be entitled to take immediate possession and control of the Deposit Account (and all funds contained therein) and to pursue all of its rights and remedies available to Holder under the Loan Documents, at law and in equity.
(j) All of the terms and conditions of the Loan shall apply during the Extension Term, except as expressly set forth above, and except that no further extensions of the Loan shall be permitted.
(k) For the purposes of the foregoing:
(i) Excess Funds shall mean, on any Additional Payment Date, the amount of funds then existing in the Deposit Account (including any
Net Operating Income due on the applicable Additional Payment Date), less an amount equal to the sum of three regularly scheduled payments of principal and interest due on this Note;
(ii) Net Operating Income shall mean, for any particular period of time, Gross Revenue for the relevant period, less Operating Expenses for the relevant period; provided, however, that if such amount is equal to or less than zero (0), Net Operating Income shall equal zero (0);
(iii) Gross Revenue shall mean all payments and other revenues (exclusive, however, of any payments attributable to sales taxes) received by or on behalf of Maker from all sources related to the ownership or operation of the Property, including, but not limited to, rents, room charges, parking fees, interest, security deposits (unless required to be held in a segregated account), business interruption insurance proceeds, operating expense pass-through revenues, direct expense reimbursements and common area maintenance charges, for the relevant period for which the calculation of Gross Revenue is being made; and
(iv) Operating Expenses shall mean the sum of all ordinary and necessary operating expenses actually paid by Maker in connection with the operation of the Property during the relevant period for which the calculation of Operating Expenses is being made, including, but not limited to, (a) payments made by Maker for taxes and insurance required under the Loan Documents and (b) monthly debt service payments as required under this Note.
3. Budgets During Extension Term .
(a) Within fifteen (15) Business Days (as defined below) following the Maturity Date and on or before December 1 of each subsequent calendar year, Maker shall deliver to Holder a proposed revenue and expense budget for the Property for the remainder of the calendar year in which the Maturity Date occurs or the immediately succeeding calendar year (as applicable). Such budget shall set forth Makers projection of Gross Revenue and Operating Expenses for the applicable calendar year, which shall be subject to Holders reasonable approval. Once a proposed budget has been reviewed and approved by Holder, and Maker has made all revisions requested by Holder, if any, the revised budget shall be delivered to Holder and shall thereafter become the budget for the Property hereunder (any such budget referred to as the Budget ) for the applicable calendar year. If Maker and Holder are unable to agree upon a Budget for any calendar year, the budgeted Operating Expenses (excluding extraordinary items) provided in the Budget for the Property for the preceding calendar year shall be considered the Budget for the Property for the subject calendar year until Maker and Holder agree upon a new Budget for such calendar year.
(b) During the Extension Term, Maker shall operate the Property in accordance with the applicable Budget for the applicable calendar year, and the total of expenditures relating to the Property exceeding one hundred and five percent (105%) of the aggregate of such expenses set forth in the applicable Budget for the applicable time period shall not be treated as Operating Expenses for the purposes of calculating Net Operating Income, without the prior written consent of Holder except for emergency expenditures which, in Makers
good faith judgment, are reasonably necessary to protect, or avoid immediate danger to, life or property.
4. Reports During Extension Term .
(a) During the Extension Term, Maker shall deliver to Holder all financial statements reasonably required by Holder to calculate Net Operating Income, including, without limitation, a monthly statement to be delivered to Holder concurrently with Makers payment of Net Operating Income that sets forth the amount of Net Operating Income accompanying such statement and Makers calculation of Net Operating Income for the relevant calendar month. Such statements shall be certified by an executive officer of Maker or Makers manager, managing member or general partner (as applicable) as having been prepared in accordance with the terms hereof and to be true, accurate and complete in all material respects.
(b) In addition, on or before February 1 of each calendar year during the Extension Term, Maker shall submit to Holder an annual income and expense statement for the Property which shall include the calculation of Gross Revenue, Operating Expenses and Net Operating Income for the preceding calendar year and shall be accompanied by Makers reconciliation of any difference between the actual aggregate amount of the Net Operating Income for such calendar year and the aggregate amount of Net Operating Income for such calendar year actually remitted to Holder. All such statements shall be certified by an executive officer of Maker or Makers manager, managing member or general partner (as applicable) as having been prepared in accordance with the terms hereof and to be true, accurate and complete in all material respects. If any such annual financial statement discloses any inconsistency between the calculation of Net Operating Income and the amount of Net Operating Income actually remitted to Holder, Maker shall immediately remit to Holder the amount of any underpayment of Net Operating Income for such calendar year or, in the event of an overpayment by Maker, such amount may be withheld from any subsequent payment of Net Operating Income required hereunder.
(c) Holder may notify Maker within ninety (90) days after receipt of any statement or report required hereunder that Holder disputes any computation or item contained in any portion of such statement or report. If Holder so notifies Maker, Holder and Maker shall meet in good faith within twenty (20) days after Holders notice to Maker to resolve such disputed items. If, despite such good faith efforts, the parties are unable to resolve the dispute at such meeting or within ten (10) days thereafter, the items shall be resolved by an independent certified public accountant designated by Holder within fifteen (15) days after such ten (10) day period. The determination of such accountant shall be final. All fees of such accountant shall be paid by Maker. Maker shall remit to Holder any additional amount of Net Operating Income found to be due for such periods within ten (10) days after the resolution of such dispute by the parties or the accountants determination, as applicable. The amount of any overpayment found to have been made for such periods may be withheld from any required future remittance of Net Operating Income.
(d) Maker shall at all times keep and maintain full and accurate books of account and records adequate to reflect correctly all items required in order to calculate Net Operating Income.
5. Prepayment
(a) Maker shall have no right to prepay all or any part of this Note prior to the date that is the last day of the forty-second (42) month following the date of this Note (the Lockout Expiration Date ).
(b) At any time following the Lockout Expiration Date, Maker shall have the right to prepay the full principal amount of this Note, and all other amounts due under this Note and the other Loan Documents, and all accrued but unpaid interest thereon as of the date of prepayment, provided that (i) Maker gives not less than thirty (30) days prior written notice to Holder of Makers election to prepay this Note, (ii) Maker pays a prepayment premium to Holder equal to the greater of (A) one percent (1%) of the outstanding principal amount of this Note or (B) the Present Value of this Note (hereinafter defined), less the amount of principal being prepaid, calculated as of the prepayment date and (iii) Maker prepays each of the other Additional Notes (as such term is defined in the Mortgage) and all other amounts due under the Additional Notes and the other Additional Loan Documents (as such term is defined in the Mortgage), and all accrued but unpaid interest thereon as of the date of prepayment.
(c) Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 5 , no prepayment premium shall be due (i) in connection with any involuntary prepayment due to the Holders application of any insurance proceeds or condemnation awards to the principal balance of the Loan or (ii) if Maker provides additional funds to prepay the Loan in connection with the application of any insurance proceeds or condemnation awards to the principal balance of the Loan following any casualty or condemnation; provided, in any such case, that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such application of insurance proceeds or condemnation awards.
(d) Holder shall notify Maker in writing of the amount and basis of determination of the prepayment premium. Holder shall not be obligated to accept any prepayment of the principal balance of this Note unless such prepayment is accompanied by (i) the applicable prepayment premium, (ii) the outstanding principal balance of the Loan, (iii) all accrued interest and other sums due under this Note and all other amounts due under the Loan Documents and (iv) the outstanding principal balance of the Additional Loans (as such term is defined in the Mortgage) all accrued interest and other sums due under the Additional Notes and all other amounts due under the Additional Loan Documents. Maker may not prepay the Loan on a Friday, nor on any public holiday or the equivalent for banks generally under the laws of the State of New York or on any day preceding a public holiday, or the equivalent for banks generally under the laws of the State of New York.
(e) Except for making payments of Net Operating Income as required above, and except for the application of insurance proceeds or condemnation awards to the principal balance of this Note, as provided in the Mortgage (hereinafter defined), in no event shall Maker be permitted to make any partial prepayments of this Note.
(f) If Holder accelerates this Note for any reason, then in addition to Makers obligation to pay the then outstanding principal balance of this Note and all accrued but unpaid interest thereon, Maker shall pay an additional amount equal to the prepayment premium that would be due to Holder if Maker were voluntarily prepaying this Note at the time
that such acceleration occurred, or if under the terms hereof no voluntary prepayment would be permissible on the date of such acceleration, Maker shall pay a prepayment premium equal to 150% of the highest prepayment premium set forth in this Note, calculated as of the date of such acceleration as if prepayment were permitted on such date.
(g) For the purposes of the foregoing:
(i) The Present Value of this Note with respect to any prepayment of this Note, as of any date, shall be determined by discounting all scheduled payments of principal and interest remaining to maturity of this Note, attributed to the amount being prepaid, at the Discount Rate. If prepayment occurs on a date other than a Payment Date, the actual number of days remaining from the prepayment date to the next Payment Date will be used to calculate such discount within such period;
(ii) The Discount Rate is the rate which, when compounded monthly, is equivalent to the Treasury Rate, when compounded semi-annually;
(iii) The Treasury Rate is the semi-annual yield on the Treasury Constant Maturity Series with maturity equal to the remaining weighted average life of this Note, for the week prior to the prepayment date, as reported in Federal Reserve Statistical Release H. 15 - Selected Interest Rates, conclusively determined by Holder on the prepayment date. The rate will be determined by linear interpolation between the yields reported in Release H.15, if necessary. In the event Release H.15 is no longer published, Holder shall select a comparable publication to determine the Treasury Rate.
(h) Holder shall not be obligated actually to reinvest the amount prepaid in any treasury obligations as a condition precedent to receiving any prepayment premium.
(i) Notwithstanding the foregoing, (A) at any time during the Extension Term, Maker shall have the right to prepay in full, but not in part, the principal amount of this Note and all accrued but unpaid interest thereon as of the date of prepayment, without prepayment premium thereon and (B) no prepayment premium shall be due in connection with the prepayment of the full principal amount of this Note, and all other amounts due under this Note and the other Loan Documents, and all accrued but unpaid interest thereon as of the date of prepayment, during the ninety (90) day period prior to the Maturity Date.
6. Payments . Whenever any payment to be made under this Note shall be stated to be due on a Saturday, Sunday or public holiday or the equivalent for banks generally under the laws of the State of New York (any other day being a Business Day ), such payment may be made on the next succeeding Business Day.
7. Default Rate .
(a) The entire balance of principal, interest, and any other sums due under this Note and the other Loan Documents upon the maturity hereof, by acceleration or otherwise, shall bear interest from the date due until paid at the greater of (i) eighteen percent (18%) per annum and (ii) a per annum rate equal to four percent (4%) over the prime rate published
in The Wall Street Journal on the first business day of each month (the Default Rate ); provided, however, that such rate shall not exceed the maximum permitted by applicable state or federal law. In the event The Wall Street Journal is no longer published or no longer publishes such prime rate, Holder shall select a comparable reference.
(b) If any payment under this Note or any of the Additional Notes is not made when due, interest shall accrue at the Default Rate from the date such payment was due until payment is actually made.
8. Late Charges . In addition to interest as set forth herein, Maker shall pay to Holder a late charge equal to four percent (4%) of any amounts due under this Note in the event any such amount is not paid when due. Notwithstanding the foregoing provision, Holder will allow for one (1) five (5) day grace period upon monetary default without the obligation of paying a late charge in any twelve (12) month period during the term of the Loan.
9. Application of Payments . All payments hereunder shall be applied in the following order: (i) first, to the payment of late charges, if any; (ii) second, to the payment of prepayment premiums, if any; (iii) third, to the repayment of any sums advanced by Holder for the payment of any insurance premiums, taxes, assessments or other charges against the Property securing this Note and any other costs and expenses incurred by Holder in accordance with the Loan Documents (together with interest thereon at the Default Rate from the date of advance until repaid), if any; (iv) fourth, to the payment of accrued and unpaid interest and other amounts due and payable under the Loan Documents (other than principal), if any; and (v) fifth, to the reduction of principal. Notwithstanding the foregoing, for so long as any Event of Default is continuing, Holder shall have the continuing right to apply any payment received by Holder from or on behalf of Maker as Holder may elect against the due and owing obligations of Maker under the Note and the other Loan Documents in such order of priority or in such allocations as Holder may deem advisable in its sole and absolute discretion.
10. Immediately Available Funds . All payments under this Note shall be payable in immediately available funds without setoff, counterclaim or deduction of any kind, and shall be made by electronic funds transfer from a bank account established and maintained by Maker for such purpose.
11. Security . This Note is secured by, among other things, (i) that certain (a) Open-End Mortgage, Assignment of Leases and Rents, Security Agreement and Fixture Filing, of even date herewith, granted by Maker for the benefit of Holder (the Mortgage ) encumbering certain real property and improvements located at 22 Marsh Hill Road, Orange, Connecticut 06477, as more particularly described in the Mortgage (the Property ), (ii) a Guaranty Agreement from Paul Cooper, Jeffrey Ravetz and Louis Sheinker (collectively, Guarantors ), in favor of Holder (the Guaranty ) and (iii) the Affiliate Guaranty (as such term is defined in the Mortgage).
12. Certain Definitions . Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings set forth in the Mortgage.
13. Event of Default . Each of the following events will constitute an event of default (an Event of Default ) under this Note and under the Mortgage and each other
document evidencing or securing or executed in connection with the Loan (collectively, the Loan Documents ), and any Event of Default under any Loan Document shall constitute an Event of Default hereunder and under each of the other Loan Documents:
(a) any failure to pay when due any interest, principal or other amount in a sum certain under this Note or under any of the other Loan Documents for which sum there is a scheduled date for payment or for which there is a date certain for payment.
(b) any failure to pay within ten (10) days following demand by Holder for any amount other than any amount described in Section 13(a) above; or
(c) any failure of Maker to properly perform any obligation contained herein or in any of the other Loan Documents (other than the obligation to make payments under this Note or the other Loan Documents) and the continuance of such failure for a period of thirty (30) days following written notice thereof from Holder to Maker; provided, however, that if such failure is not curable within such thirty (30) day period, then, so long as Maker commences to cure such failure within such thirty (30) day period and is continually and diligently attempting to cure to completion, such failure shall not be an Event of Default unless such failure remains uncured for one hundred twenty (120) days after such written notice to Maker; or
(d) if, at any time during the Extension Term, Gross Revenue for any calendar month shall be less than ninety-three percent (93%) of the amount of projected Gross Revenue for such month set forth in the applicable Budget; or
(e) the occurrence of any event that is deemed to be an Event of Default under any provision of this Note, the Mortgage, the Affiliate Guaranty any other Loan Document or any Additional Loan Document.
14. Acceleration . If at any time an Event of Default exists, the entire balance of principal, accrued interest and other sums owing hereunder shall, at the option of Holder, become at once due and payable without notice or demand. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default described in Section 13(d) hereof, Holder shall have the option, in its sole and absolute discretion, to either (a) exercise any remedies available to Holder under the Loan Documents, at law or in equity, or (b) require Maker to submit a new proposed budget for Holders approval. If Holder agrees to accept such new proposed budget, then such budget shall become the Budget for all purposes hereunder. If an Event of Default exists, Holder may exercise any right, power or remedy permitted by law or set forth herein or in the Mortgage or any other Loan Document.
15. Conditions Precedent . Maker hereby certifies and declares that all acts, conditions and things required to be done or performed or have happened precedent to the creation and issuance of this Note, and in order to constitute this Note the legal, valid and binding obligation of Maker, enforceable in accordance with the terms hereof, have been done or performed or have happened in due and strict compliance with all applicable laws.
16. Certain Waivers and Consents . Maker and all parties now or hereafter liable for the payment hereof, primarily or secondarily, directly or indirectly, and
whether as endorser, guarantor, surety, or otherwise, hereby severally (a) waive presentment, demand, protest, notice of protest and/or dishonor, and all other demands or notices of any sort whatever with respect to this Note, (b) consent to impairment or release of collateral, extensions of time for payment, and acceptance of partial payments before, at, or after maturity, (c) waive any right to require Holder to proceed against any security for this Note before proceeding hereunder, (d) waive diligence in the collection of this Note or in filing suit on this Note and (e) agree to pay all out-of-pocket costs and expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys fees, which may be actually incurred in the collection of this Note or any part thereof or in preserving, securing possession of and realizing upon any security for this Note.
17. Usury Savings Clause . The provisions of this Note and of all agreements between Maker and Holder are, whether now existing or hereinafter made, hereby expressly limited so that in no contingency or event whatsoever, whether by reason of acceleration of the maturity hereof, prepayment, demand for payment or otherwise, shall the amount paid, or agreed to be paid, to Holder for the use, forbearance or detention of the principal hereof or interest hereon, which remains unpaid from time to time, exceed the maximum amount permissible under applicable law. In particular, it is the intention of the parties hereto to conform strictly to Connecticut and Federal law, whichever is applicable. If as a result of any circumstance whatsoever, the performance or fulfillment of any provision hereof or of any other agreement between Maker and Holder pertaining to the subject matter hereof shall, at the time performance or fulfillment of such provision is due, involve or purport to require any payment in excess of the limits then prescribed by applicable law, then the obligation to be performed or fulfilled shall hereby be reduced to such limit as to be valid under such applicable law, and if as a result of any circumstance whatsoever, Holder should receive as interest under this Note an amount which would exceed the then highest lawful rate, the amount by which such interest payment would exceed such highest lawful rate shall be applied to the reduction of the principal balance owing hereunder without prepayment or penalty (or, at Holders option, be paid to Maker) and in no event shall be counted as interest. To the fullest extent permitted by then applicable law, the determination of the legal maximum amount of interest shall at any and all times be made by amortizing, prorating, allocating and spreading in equal parts over the period of the full stated term of this Note, all interest at any time contracted for, charged or received from Maker in connection with this Note and all other agreements between Maker and Holder pertaining to the subject matter hereof, so that the actual rate of interest on account of the indebtedness represented by this Note is uniform throughout the term hereof and complies with all applicable law.
18. Non-Recourse; Exceptions to Non-Recourse .
(a) Nothing contained in the Loan Documents shall be deemed to impair, limit or prejudice Holders rights in foreclosure proceedings or in any ancillary proceedings brought to facilitate Holders foreclosure on the Property or any portion thereof or to exercise any specific rights or remedies afforded Holder under any other provisions of the Loan Documents or by law or in equity, subject to the non-recourse provisions set forth below, to recover under any guarantee given in connection with the Loan or to pursue any personal liability of Maker or any Guarantor under the Guaranty Agreement, the Environmental Indemnity Agreement or the ERISA indemnity provisions of the Mortgage. Except as expressly hereinafter set forth, the recourse of Holder with respect to the obligations evidenced by this Note, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents (except for the Guaranty and the Environmental
Indemnity Agreement) shall be solely to the Property, Chattels and Intangible Personalty (as such terms are defined in the Mortgage). Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary contained in this Note, the Mortgage or in any other Loan Document, nothing shall be deemed in any way to impair, limit or prejudice the rights of Holder to collect or recover from Maker (but not any member, manager, officer, director or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing, with the exclusion of the Guarantors) and Guarantors: (i) damages or costs (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys fees) incurred by Holder as a result of any intentional waste by Maker; (ii) any condemnation award or insurance proceeds attributable to the Property which were not paid to Holder or used to restore the Property in accordance with the terms of the Mortgage; (iii) any Rents, profits, security deposits, advances, rebates, prepaid rents or other similar sums attributable to the Property collected by or for Maker (x) following an Event of Default under any Loan Document and not properly applied to the reasonable fixed and operating expenses of the Property, including, without limitation, payments due on this Note and other sums due under the Loan Documents or (y) to the extent not deposited into the Lockbox Account; (iv) any security deposits collected by or for Maker and not applied in accordance with the applicable Leases (as such term is defined in the Mortgage); (v) the amount of any accrued taxes, assessments, and/or utility charges affecting the Property (whether or not the same have been billed to Maker) that are either unpaid by Maker or advanced by Holder under the Mortgage, except, in respect of the Property, to the extent of any of the foregoing accruing after the Termination Date (as hereinafter defined) with respect to the Property; (vi) any sums expended by Holder in fulfilling the obligations of Maker, as lessor, under any Lease affecting the Property; (vii) the amount of any loss suffered by Holder (that would otherwise be covered by insurance and available to Holder in accordance with the Loan Documents) as a result of Makers failure to maintain any insurance required under the terms of any Loan Document; and (viii) losses, damages and costs (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys fees) incurred by Holder as a result of any fraud of material misrepresentation by Maker in connection with the Property or any of the Loan Documents. For the avoidance of doubt, the matters set forth in this paragraph (a) shall be fully recourse to Maker (but not any member, manager, officer, director or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing, with the exclusion of the Guarantors) and Guarantor. For the purposes of this Section 18(a) , the Termination Date is, in respect of the Property, the earliest of (x) the date that Maker tenders to Holder or Holders designee a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure in respect of the Property, subject to no title exceptions other than real estate taxes and assessments, the Permitted Exceptions (as defined in the applicable Mortgage) and such additional exceptions approved by Holder pursuant to the Loan Documents or which are otherwise acceptable to Holder in its reasonable discretion, together with such ancillary conveyances, releases and other documentation that are customarily delivered in connection with a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure transaction, all in form reasonably satisfactory to Holder, and such deed-in-lieu of foreclosure is accepted by Holder in its sole discretion (y) the date that Maker tenders to Holder a stipulation to entry of judgment of foreclosure in respect of the Property, and (z) the date Holder, any Affiliate of Holder, or any other party takes title to the Property in connection with a foreclosure of the applicable Mortgage that encumbers the Property. If Maker elects to deliver a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure in respect of the Property, Holder shall retain the right to determine whether to accept such deed-in-lieu of foreclosure or to proceed with foreclosure proceedings and, upon Holder making such election, Maker shall execute and deliver to Holder an appropriate deed-in-lieu of foreclosure in respect of the Property, as Holder shall have elected; provided, however, that if Holder chooses to proceed with foreclosure proceedings in respect of the Property, the Termination Date shall nonetheless be the earliest of the date specified in clause (x), (y) and (z) above, provided further that if Maker thereafter fails to cooperate with
Holder in respect of Holders exercise of any and all remedies available at law or in equity to Holder (including, without limitation, foreclosure), then the Termination Date shall be the earlier of the date specified in clause (y) or (z) above.
(b) The agreement contained in this Section 18 to limit the personal liability of Maker to its interest in the Property, Chattels and Intangible Personalty shall become null and void and be of no further force and effect, and Maker (but not any member, manager, officer, director or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing, with the exclusion of the Guarantors) and Guarantors shall be personally liable for the repayment of the Secured Obligations (as such term is defined in the Mortgage) in the event (i) that the Property, or any part thereof or any interest therein, or any interest in Maker, or any of them, shall be further encumbered by a voluntary lien securing any obligation upon which Maker, or any of them, any direct or indirect general partner, manager or managing member such Maker, any Guarantor, any of the Mortgagor Control Persons (as defined in the Mortgage) or any principal or affiliate of Maker, or any of them, shall be personally liable for repayment, either as obligor or guarantor, (ii) of any breach or violation of Section 5.4, 5.5 or 5.7 of the Mortgage, (iii) that Maker forfeits the Property or the Chattels or any portion of the Property or Chattels due to criminal activity, (iv) any attempt by Maker, any Guarantor or any Mortgagor Owner Person (as defined in the Mortgage) to materially delay any foreclosure against the Property, Chattels and/or Intangible Personalty, or any portion of the Property, the Chattels and/or the Intangible Personalty or any other exercise by Holder of its remedies under the Loan Documents, which attempts shall (x) include, without limitation, (A) any claim made by Maker that any Loan Document is invalid or unenforceable to an extent that would preclude any such foreclosure or other exercise of remedies, (B) Maker filing a petition in bankruptcy, Maker acquiescing in an involuntary bankruptcy proceeding, Maker failing to oppose in good faith the entry of an order for relief pursuant to any involuntary bankruptcy filed against it, or Maker filing a petition or answer seeking any reorganization, arrangement, composition, readjustment, liquidation, dissolution or similar relief under the bankruptcy laws of the United States or under any other similar federal, state or other statute relating to relief from indebtedness (whether filed by or against Maker), or (C) the appointment of a receiver, trustee or liquidator by Maker, any Guarantor or any Mortgagor Owner Person with respect to Maker or the Property or any part thereof and (y) shall not include a defense to a foreclosure that is (A) not frivolous and is advanced in good faith and (B) based upon a default by Holder under terms of the Loan Documents, or (v) any execution, amendment, modification or early termination of any Lease of any Required Tenant made in violation of the Loan Documents. For the avoidance of doubt, no such termination of any Lease shall excuse Maker from the performance of its obligations under the Loan Documents. For purposes of the foregoing, affiliate shall have the meaning ascribed to the term Affiliate in the Mortgage.
19. Severability . If any provision hereof or of any other document securing or otherwise related to the indebtedness evidenced hereby is, for any reason and to any extent, deemed invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction or with respect to any person, entity or circumstances, then neither the remainder of the document in which such provision is contained, nor the application of such provision in respect of other persons, entities, or circumstances, nor any other document referred to herein, shall be affected by such invalidity or lack of enforceability, but, instead, shall be enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by law.
20. Transfer of Note . Each provision of this Note shall be and remain in full force and effect notwithstanding any negotiation or transfer hereof and any interest herein to any other Holder or participant.
21. Governing Law . Regardless of the place of its execution, this Note shall be construed and enforced in accordance with the substantive laws of the State of Connecticut.
22. Time of Essence . Time is of the essence of this Note.
23. Remedies Cumulative . The remedies provided to Holder in this Note, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents are cumulative and concurrent and may be exercised singly, successively or jointly against Maker, the Property, and other security, or against Guarantors or any obligor under, or guarantor of, this Note or the other Loan Documents, at the sole and absolute discretion of Holder.
24. No Waiver . Holder shall not-by any act or omission be deemed to have waived any of its rights or remedies hereunder unless such waiver is in writing and signed by Holder and then only to the extent specifically set forth therein. A waiver of one event shall not be construed as continuing or as a bar to or waiver of any right or remedy granted to Holder hereunder in connection with a subsequent event.
25. Joint and Several Obligation . If Maker is more than one person or entity, then: (a) all persons or entities comprising Maker are jointly and severally liable for all of Makers obligations hereunder; (b) all representations, warranties and covenants made by Maker shall be deemed representations, warranties and covenants of each of the persons or entities comprising Maker; (c) any breach, Default or Event of Default by any of the persons or entities comprising Maker hereunder shall be deemed to be a breach, Default or Event of Default of Maker; and (d) any reference herein contained to the knowledge or awareness of Maker shall mean the knowledge or awareness of any of the persons or entities comprising Maker.
26. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL . MAKER AND HOLDER KNOWINGLY, IRREVOCABLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT EITHER MAKER OR HOLDER MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM BASED ON THIS NOTE, OR ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS NOTE, THE MORTGAGE, OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS OR ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT, COURSE OF DEALING, STATEMENT (WHETHER VERBAL OR WRITTEN) OR ACTIONS OF ANY PARTY HERETO OR TO ANY LOAN DOCUMENT. THIS PROVISION IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR MAKER AND HOLDER TO ENTER INTO THE LOAN TRANSACTION EVIDENCED BY THIS NOTE.
27. WAIVER OF PREPAYMENT RIGHT WITHOUT PREMIUM . EXCEPT AS EXPLICITLY SET FORTH HEREIN, MAKER HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE UNDER APPLICABLE LAW TO PREPAY THIS NOTE, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, WITHOUT PREPAYMENT PREMIUM, UPON ACCELERATION OF THE MATURITY DATE OF THIS NOTE, AND AGREES THAT, IF FOR ANY REASON A PREPAYMENT OF ALL OR ANY PART OF THIS NOTE IS MADE, WHETHER
VOLUNTARILY OR FOLLOWING ANY ACCELERATION OF THE MATURITY DATE OF THIS NOTE BY HOLDER ON ACCOUNT OF THE OCCURRENCE OF ANY EVENT OF DEFAULT ARISING FOR ANY REASON, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, AS A RESULT OF ANY PROHIBITED OR RESTRICTED TRANSFER, FURTHER ENCUMBRANCE OR DISPOSITION OF THE PROPERTY OR ANY PART THEREOF SECURING THIS NOTE, THEN MAKER SHALL BE OBLIGATED TO PAY, CONCURRENTLY WITH SUCH PREPAYMENT, THE PREPAYMENT PREMIUM PROVIDED FOR IN THIS NOTE OR, IN THE EVENT OF PREPAYMENT FOLLOWING ACCELERATION OF THE MATURITY DATE HEREOF WHEN THIS NOTE IS CLOSED TO PREPAYMENT, AS PROVIDED HEREIN AND IN THE MORTGAGE. MAKER HEREBY DECLARES THAT HOLDERS AGREEMENT TO MAKE THE LOAN AT THE INTEREST RATE AND FOR THE TERM SET FORTH IN THIS NOTE CONSTITUTES ADEQUATE CONSIDERATION, GIVEN INDIVIDUAL WEIGHT BY MAKER, FOR THIS WAIVER AND AGREEMENT.
[END OF TEXT]
IN WITNESS WHEREOF and intending to be legally bound, Maker has duly executed this Note as of the date first above written.

ARTICLE 4
MORTGAGORS AFFIRMATIVE COVENANTS
4.1 Payment of Note. Mortgagor shall pay all principal, interest and other sums payable under the Note or the other Loan Documents on the date when such payments are due, without notice or demand.
4.2 Performance of Other Obligations. Mortgagor shall promptly perform and comply with all other covenants, conditions and prohibitions required of Mortgagor by the terms of the Loan Documents.
4.3 Other Encumbrances. Mortgagor shall promptly perform and comply, in all material respects, with all covenants, conditions and prohibitions required of Mortgagor in connection with any Access Agreement and any other encumbrance affecting the Property, the Chattels or the Intangible Personalty, or any part thereof, or any interest therein, regardless of whether such other encumbrance is superior or subordinate to the lien hereof.
4.4 Payment of Taxes.
(a) Property Taxes . Unless Mortgagor is depositing money into escrow pursuant to Section 4.4(b) , Mortgagor shall (i) pay, before delinquency and before the imposition of any penalty or interest, all taxes and assessments, general or special, which may be levied or imposed at any time against Mortgagors interest and estate in the Property, the Chattels or the Intangible Personalty, and (ii) within ten (10) days after each payment of any such tax or assessment, Mortgagor will deliver to Mortgagee, without notice or demand, an official receipt for such payment. Unless Taxes are being paid by Mortgagee, Mortgagor shall provide Mortgagee with reasonably satisfactory evidence of the payment of all such taxes and assessments, general or special, which may be levied or imposed at any time against Mortgagors interest and estate in the Property, the Chattels or the Intangible Personalty within ten (10) days following any such payment.
(b) Deposit for Taxes . On the date hereof, Mortgagor shall deposit with Mortgagee an amount equal to 1/12th of the amount which Mortgagee estimates will be required to make the next annual payment of taxes, assessments and similar governmental charges referred to in this Section, multiplied by the number of whole or partial months that have elapsed since the date one month prior to the most recent due date for such taxes, assessments and similar governmental charges. Thereafter, with each monthly payment under the Note, Mortgagor shall deposit with Mortgagee an amount equal to 1/12th of the amount which Mortgagee estimates will be required to pay the next annual payment of taxes, assessments and similar governmental charges referred to in this Section. The purpose of these provisions is to provide Mortgagee with sufficient funds on hand to pay all such taxes, assessments and other governmental charges thirty (30) days before the date on which they become past due. If Mortgagee, in its sole discretion, determines that the funds escrowed hereunder are, or will be, insufficient, Mortgagor shall upon demand pay such additional sums as Mortgagee shall determine necessary and shall pay any increased monthly charges requested by Mortgagee. Provided no Event of Default exists hereunder, Mortgagee will apply the amounts so deposited to the payment of such taxes, assessments and other charges when due, but in no event will Mortgagee be liable for any interest on any amount so deposited, and any amount so deposited may be held and commingled with Mortgagees own funds.
(c) Intangible Taxes . If by reason of any statutory or constitutional amendment or judicial decision adopted or rendered after the date hereof, any tax, assessment or similar charge is imposed against the Note, Mortgagee, or any interest of Mortgagee in any real or personal property encumbered hereby, Mortgagor will pay such tax, assessment or other charge before delinquency and will indemnify Mortgagee against all loss, expense or diminution of income in connection therewith. In the event Mortgagor is unable to do so, either for economic reasons or because the legal provisions or decisions creating such tax, assessment or charge forbid Mortgagor from doing so, then the Note will, at Mortgagees option, become due and payable in full upon thirty (30) days notice to Mortgagor.
(d) Right to Contest . Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section, Mortgagor will not be deemed to be in default solely by reason of Mortgagors failure to pay any tax, assessment or similar governmental charge so long as, in Mortgagees judgment, each of the following conditions is satisfied:
(i) Mortgagor is engaged in and diligently pursuing in good faith administrative or judicial proceedings appropriate to contest the validity or amount of such tax, assessment or charge;
(ii) Mortgagors payment of such tax, assessment or charge would necessarily and materially prejudice Mortgagors prospects for success in such proceedings;
(iii) Nonpayment of such tax, assessment, or charge will not result in the loss or forfeiture of any property encumbered hereby or any interest of Mortgagee therein; and
(iv) Mortgagor deposits with Mortgagee, as security for such payment which may ultimately be required, a sum equal to the amount of the disputed tax, assessment or charge plus the interest, penalties, advertising charges and other costs which Mortgagee estimates are likely to become payable if Mortgagors contest is unsuccessful. For the avoidance of doubt, the funds required to be deposited with Mortgagee under this paragraph (iv) shall be in addition to all taxes, assessments and other governmental charges that are not being contested and that are subject to the deposit provisions of Section 4.4(b) hereof.
If Mortgagee determines that any one or more of such conditions is not satisfied or is no longer satisfied, Mortgagor will pay the tax, assessment or charge in question, together with any interest and penalties thereon, within ten (10) days after Mortgagee gives notice of such determination.
4.5 Maintenance of Insurance.
(a) Coverages Required . Mortgagor shall maintain or cause to be maintained, with financially sound and reputable insurance companies or associations satisfactory to Mortgagee, all insurance required under the terms of the Insurance Agreement, and shall comply with each and every covenant and agreement contained in such Insurance Agreement.
Mortgagor shall provide Mortgagee with reasonably satisfactory evidence of the payment of the premiums of all such insurance within five (5) business days following the any such payment.
(b) Renewal Policies . Not less than thirty (30) days prior to the expiration date of each insurance policy required pursuant to the Insurance Agreement, Mortgagor will deliver to Mortgagee either an appropriate renewal policy (or a certified copy thereof), together with evidence satisfactory to Mortgagee that the applicable premium has been prepaid.
(c) Deposit for Premiums . If an Event of Default exists or if Mortgagor shall fail to provide Mortgagee with evidence of insurance as and when required under this Mortgage and the Insurance Agreement, Mortgagor shall deposit with Mortgagee an amount equal to 1/12th of the amount which Mortgagee estimates will be required to make the next annual payments of the premiums for the policies of insurance referred to in this Section, multiplied by the number of whole and partial months which have elapsed since the date one month prior to the most recent policy anniversary date for each such policy. Thereafter, with each monthly payment under the Note, Mortgagor will deposit an amount equal to 1/12th of the amount which Mortgagee estimates will be required to pay the next required annual premium for each insurance policy referred to in this Section. The purpose of these provisions is to provide Mortgagee with sufficient funds on hand to pay all such premiums thirty (30) days before the date on which they become past due. If Mortgagee, in its sole discretion, determines that the funds escrowed hereunder are, or will be, insufficient, Mortgagor shall upon demand, pay such additional sums as Mortgagee shall determine as necessary and shall pay any increased monthly charges requested by Mortgagee. Provided no Event of Default exists hereunder, Mortgagee will apply the amounts so deposited to the payment of such insurance premiums when due, but in no event will Mortgagee be liable for any interest on any amounts so deposited, and the money so received may be held and commingled with Mortgagees own funds.
(d) Application of Hazard Insurance Proceeds . Mortgagor shall after learning thereof promptly notify Mortgagee of any damage or casualty to all or any portion of the Property or Chattels. Mortgagee may participate in all negotiations and appear and participate in all judicial or arbitration proceedings concerning any insurance proceeds which may be payable as a result of such casualty or damage, and may, in Mortgagees sole discretion, compromise or settle, in the names of both Mortgagor and Mortgagee, any claim for any such insurance proceeds; provided, however, that in any event any such compromise or settlement shall be subject to the prior consent of Mortgagee, which may be granted or withheld in Mortgagees discretion. Any such insurance proceeds shall be paid directly to Mortgagee and shall be applied first to reimburse Mortgagee for all out-of-pocket costs and expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys fees, actually incurred by Mortgagee in connection with the ascertainment and collection of such insurance proceeds. The balance, if any, of any insurance proceeds received by Mortgagee with respect to an insured damage or casualty shall, in Mortgagees sole discretion, either (i) be retained and applied by Mortgagee toward payment of the Secured Obligations, in such order and manner as Mortgagee deems appropriate, or (ii) be paid over, in whole or in part and subject to such conditions as Mortgagee may impose, to Mortgagor to pay for repairs or replacements necessitated by the damage or casualty; provided, however, that if all of the Secured Obligations have been performed or are discharged by the application of less than all of such insurance proceeds, then any remaining proceeds will be paid over to Mortgagor.
Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.5(d), Mortgagee shall make any such insurance proceeds available to Mortgagor for restoration of the Property, provided, and on the following conditions: (A) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, (B) Mortgagor demonstrates to the reasonable satisfaction of Mortgagee that Mortgagor has the financial ability to pay all principal and interest required under the Note, and perform all of the other Secured Obligations, during the restoration of the Property from the proceeds of rent loss or business interruption insurance or otherwise, (C) the damage or casualty occurs prior to the last six (6) months of the term of the Loan and the restoration is capable of being completed prior to the stated maturity date of the Loan, (D) all insurance proceeds and other funds provided by Mortgagor for the restoration are released under escrow and construction funding arrangements reasonably satisfactory to Mortgagee, (E) the repair or restoration will return the Property to substantially the same size, design and utility as existed immediately prior to the damage or casualty, (F) in the event the proceeds of insurance are insufficient to pay by themselves for the restoration (as determined in good faith by Mortgagee), Mortgagor shall, prior to the commencement of any restoration work, deposit with Mortgagee within fifteen (15) days after the date on which the proceeds of insurance are received by Mortgagee such additional funds as in the good faith opinion of Mortgagee are necessary to complete the restoration; (G) Mortgagor undertakes and covenants and agrees (in writing) with Mortgagee to fund any and all deficiencies within fifteen (15) days after being notified in writing thereof and prior to the distribution of any further insurance proceeds, so that at all times the funds held by Mortgagee and remaining to be disbursed for purposes of the restoration shall be sufficient to complete the work; (H) the annual income from the Leases that are in existence as of the date hereof or executed in accordance with the provisions of this Mortgage and that will survive the restoration or repair of the Property produce a Debt Service Coverage Ratio of not less than 1.2 to 1.0, and Mortgagor demonstrates to Mortgagees reasonable satisfaction that Mortgagor will be able to attain Debt Service Coverage Ratio of at least 1.2 to 1.0 from Leases that are in existence as of the date hereof or executed in accordance with the provisions of this Mortgage within six (6) months after completion of the restoration; and (I) if any site plan amendment, variance, special use permit or other similar special approval or consent is required from any government authority or any other Person for such repair or restoration, Mortgagor shall obtain and deliver to Mortgagee such site plan amendment, variance, special use permit or other similar special approval or consent within one hundred eighty (180) days following such casualty or damage (but such one hundred eighty (180) day time period shall in all respects be subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.5(d) and shall not extend or otherwise modify any time periods in such foregoing provisions). Mortgagee may, prior to the application of insurance proceeds, commingle them with Mortgagees own funds and otherwise act with regard to such proceeds as Mortgagee may determine in Mortgagees sole discretion. If Mortgagee applies the insurance proceeds to the Secured Obligations due to the failure of the conditions under clause (H) of this Section 4.5(d) to be satisfied, then Mortgagor may, upon written notice delivered to Mortgagee within thirty (30) days following such application of the insurance proceeds to the Secured Obligations, elect to prepay the full principal amount of the Loan and all other amounts due under the Loan Documents, together with all accrued but unpaid interest thereon, and all other Secured Obligations, without any prepayment premium or penalty, such prepayment to be made within one-hundred eighty (180) days following such application of the insurance proceeds; provided, however, that Mortgagor continues to pay and fulfill all of Mortgagors obligations under this Note, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents up to and including the date of such full prepayment.
Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.5 , in the event the insurance proceeds are less than $250,000 and there does not exist any Default or Event of Default, then (i) Mortgagor may compromise or settle the claim for such proceeds, (ii) the proceeds shall be paid directly to Mortgagor and (iii) Mortgagor shall undertake and complete the repair or restoration of the Property so as to return the Property to substantially the same size, design and utility as existed immediately prior to the damage or casualty and shall fund any deficiency in the event such proceeds are insufficient to complete such repair or restoration.
(e) Successors Rights . Any person who acquires title to the Property or the Chattels upon foreclosure hereunder will succeed to Mortgagors rights under all policies of insurance maintained pursuant to this Section.
4.6 Maintenance and Repair of the Property and Chattels; Contracts. Mortgagor shall at all times maintain the Property and the Chattels in good condition and repair, will diligently prosecute the completion of any building or other improvement which is at any time in the process of construction on the Property, and will promptly repair, restore, replace, or rebuild any part of the Property or the Chattels which may be affected by any casualty or any public or private taking or injury to the Property or the Chattels. All costs and expenses arising out of the foregoing shall be paid by Mortgagor whether or not the proceeds of any insurance or eminent domain shall be sufficient therefor. Mortgagor shall maintain access to and egress from the Property by public streets. Subject to the provisions of Section 4.15(b) , Mortgagor will comply with (or cause compliance with) all statutes, ordinances, and other governmental or quasi-governmental requirements and private covenants relating to the ownership, construction, use, or operation of the Property, including but not limited to, any zoning requirements, any environmental or ecological requirements and any requirements regarding access for persons with disabilities. Mortgagee and any Person authorized by Mortgagee may upon prior notice to Mortgagor enter and inspect the Property at all reasonable times, and may inspect the Chattels, wherever located, at all reasonable times. Mortgagor shall take all actions necessary or required under the Leases to effect the provisions of the immediately preceding sentence. Mortgagor shall maintain all public utility services (including, without limitation, water supply, storm and sanitary sewer facilities, and natural gas, electric, telephone, cable television and high speed Internet access facilities) necessary for the operation of the Property (including, without limitation, improvements constituting part of the Property) for its intended purposes, and, without limiting such maintenance requirement, shall maintain such services at the boundaries of the land constituting part of the Property. Mortgagor shall comply (or cause compliance with) with all requirements of any insurance company or inspection or rating bureau in respect of the Property, including, without limitation, any requirements for the continuation of any insurance coverage or the continuation thereof at premium rates. Mortgagor shall timely pay and perform in all material respects each of its obligations under or in connection with the Contracts. Mortgagor shall not, without Mortgagees consent, enter into any Contract that has a term in excess of one hundred eighty (180) days unless such Contract is terminable by Mortgagor (without penalty) on thirty (30) days notice, except for any Contract disclosed in the Lease Certificate. Mortgagor and none of the Mortgagor Control Persons shall enter into any contract or agreement that contravenes any of the Loan Documents or which provides or has the effect that the performance of the Loan Documents constitutes a default under such contract or agreement or results in the creation of any lien, security interest, other charge or encumbrance upon or with respect to its properties.
Mortgagor shall perform, observe and fulfill, in all material respects, and shall cause Guarantors to perform, observe and fulfill, in all material respects, all of the obligations, covenants and conditions set forth in any agreement or instrument to which Mortgagor or Guarantors, as the case may be, or any of the properties, assets or revenues of Mortgagor or Guarantors, as the case may be, are bound, if the failure to perform, observe or fulfill any such obligation, covenant or condition would materially and adversely affect the properties, assets, operations or condition (financial or otherwise) of Mortgagor or Guarantors, as the case may be, or the ability of any party to the Loan Documents to perform such partys obligations under the Loan Documents.
4.7 Leases. Mortgagor shall timely pay and perform each of its obligations under or in connection with the Leases, and shall otherwise pay such sums and take such action as shall be necessary or required in order to maintain each of the Leases in full force and effect in accordance with its terms. Mortgagor shall within five (5) business days following receipt thereof, furnish to Mortgagee copies of any notices given to Mortgagor by the lessee under any Lease, alleging the default by Mortgagor in the timely payment or performance of its obligations under such Lease, or purporting to terminate or cancel any Lease prior to its stated expiration date, or requiring or demanding the expenditure of any sum by Mortgagor (or demanding the taking of any action by Mortgagor), and any subsequent communications related thereto. Mortgagor agrees that Mortgagee, in its sole discretion, five (5) days following notice to Mortgagor from Mortgagee and provided that Mortgagor fails to take action to perform its obligations under such Lease within the five (5) days following such notice to Mortgagor from Mortgagee, may advance any sum or take any action which Mortgagee reasonably believes is necessary or required to maintain the Leases in full force and effect, and all such sums advanced by Mortgagee, together with all costs and expenses incurred by Mortgagee in connection with action taken by Mortgagee pursuant to this Section, shall be due and payable by Mortgagor to Mortgagee upon demand, shall bear interest until paid at the Default Rate, and shall be secured by this Mortgage.

Any such award or payment shall be paid directly to Mortgagee and shall be applied first to reimburse Mortgagee for all costs and expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys fees, incurred by Mortgagee in connection with the ascertainment and collection of such award or payment. The balance, if any, of such award or payment received by Mortgagee with respect to a condemnation shall, in Mortgagees sole discretion, either (i) be retained and applied by Mortgagee toward payment of the Secured Obligations, in such order and manner as Mortgagee deems appropriate, or (ii) be paid over, in whole or in part and subject to such conditions as Mortgagee may impose, to Mortgagor for the purpose of restoring, repairing, or rebuilding any part of the Property affected by the taking or damage.
Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.8, Mortgagee shall make any such award or payment available to Mortgagor for restoration of the Property, provided, and on the following conditions: (A) no Event of Default or monetary or material non-monetary Default shall have occurred and be continuing, (B) Mortgagor demonstrates to the reasonable satisfaction of Mortgagee that Mortgagor has the financial ability to pay all principal and interest required under the Note, and perform all of the other Secured Obligations, during the restoration of the Property from the proceeds of rent loss or business interruption insurance or otherwise, (C) the damage occurs prior to the last six (6) months of the term of the Loan and the restoration is capable of being completed prior to the stated maturity date of the Loan, (D) any condemnation award and other funds provided by Mortgagor for the restoration are released under escrow and construction funding arrangements reasonably satisfactory to Mortgagee, (E) the repair or restoration will return the Property to substantially the same size, design and utility as existed immediately prior to the damage, (F) in the event the condemnation award is insufficient to pay by itself for the restoration (as determined in good faith by Mortgagee), Mortgagor shall, prior to the commencement of any restoration work, deposit with Mortgagee within fifteen (15) days after the date on which the condemnation award is received by Mortgagee such additional funds as in the good faith opinion of Mortgagee are necessary to complete the restoration; (G) Mortgagor undertakes and covenants and agrees (in writing) with Mortgagee to fund any and all deficiencies within fifteen (15) days after being notified in writing thereof and prior to the distribution of any further portion of the condemnation award, so that at all times the funds held by Mortgagee and remaining to be disbursed for purposes of the restoration shall be sufficient to complete the work; (H) the annual income from the Leases that are in existence as of the date hereof or executed in accordance with the provisions of this Mortgage and that will survive the restoration or repair of the Property produce a Debt Service Coverage Ratio of not less than 1.2 to 1.0, and Mortgagor demonstrates to Mortgagees reasonable satisfaction that Mortgagor will be able to attain Debt Service Coverage Ratio of at least 1.2 to 1.0 from Leases that are in existence as of the date hereof or executed in accordance with the provisions of this Mortgage within six (6) months after completion of the restoration; and (I) if any site plan amendment, variance, special use permit or other similar special approval or consent is required from any government authority or any other Person for such repair or restoration, Mortgagor shall obtain and deliver to Mortgagee such site plan amendment, variance, special use permit or other similar special approval or consent within one hundred eighty (180) days following such taking or condemnation (but such one hundred eighty (180) day time period shall in all respects be subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.8 and shall not extend or otherwise modify any time periods in such foregoing provisions). Mortgagee may, prior to the application of any condemnation award, commingle it with Mortgagees own funds and otherwise act with regard to such award as Mortgagee may determine in Mortgagees sole discretion. If Mortgagee applies the condemnation award to the Secured Obligations due to the failure of the conditions under clause (H) of this Section 4.8 to be satisfied, then Mortgagor may, upon written notice delivered to Mortgagee within thirty (30) days following such application of the condemnation award to the Secured Obligations, elect to prepay the full principal amount of the Loan and all other amounts due under the Loan Documents, together with all accrued but unpaid interest thereon, and all other Secured Obligations, without any prepayment premium or penalty, such prepayment to be made within one-hundred eighty (180) days following such application of the condemnation award; provided, however, that Mortgagor continues to pay and fulfill all of Mortgagors obligations under this Note, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents up to and including the date of such full prepayment.
If this Mortgage has been foreclosed prior to Mortgagees receipt of such award or payment, Mortgagee may nonetheless retain such award or payment to the extent required to reimburse Mortgagee for all costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys fees, incurred in connection therewith, and to discharge any deficiency remaining with respect to the Secured Obligations.
Mortgagee will have no obligation to see to the proper application of any proceeds paid over to Mortgagor, nor will any such proceeds received by Mortgagee bear interest or be subject to any other charge for the benefit of Mortgagor. If such proceeds are deposited with Mortgagee, Mortgagee may, prior to the application of such proceeds, commingle them with Mortgagees own funds and otherwise act with regard to such proceeds as Mortgagee may determine in Mortgagees sole discretion.
4.9 Mechanics Liens. Mortgagor will keep the Property free and clear of all liens and claims of liens by contractors, subcontractors, mechanics, laborers, materialmen, and other such persons, and will cause any recorded statement of any such lien to be released of record or bonded off within sixty (60) days after the recording thereof. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, however, Mortgagor will not be deemed to be in default under this Section if and so long as Mortgagor (a) contests in good faith the validity or amount of any asserted lien and diligently prosecutes or defends an action appropriate to obtain a binding determination of the disputed matter, (b) provides Mortgagee with such security as Mortgagee may reasonably require to protect Mortgagee against all loss, damage and expense, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys fees, which Mortgagee might incur if the asserted lien is determined to be valid (which security may, at the option of Mortgagor, be in the form of a bond over such lien, provided that such bond either removes any such lien of record or prevents the filing of any such lien of record).
4.10 Defense of Actions. Mortgagor will defend, at Mortgagors expense, any action, proceeding or claim which affects any property encumbered hereby or any interest of Mortgagee in such property or in the Secured Obligations, and Mortgagor will indemnify and hold Mortgagee harmless from all loss, damage, cost, or expense, including attorneys fees, which Mortgagee may incur in connection therewith.
4.11 Expenses of Enforcement. Mortgagor will pay all costs and expenses, which Mortgagee may incur in connection with any effort or action (whether or not litigation or foreclosure is involved) to enforce or defend Mortgagees rights and remedies under any of the Loan Documents, including, but not limited to, all attorneys fees, appraisal fees, consultants fees, and other expenses incurred by Mortgagee in securing title to or possession of, and realizing upon, any security for the Secured Obligations. All such costs and expenses (together with interest thereon at the Default Rate from the date incurred) shall constitute part of the Secured Obligations, and may be included in the computation of the amount owed to Mortgagee for purposes of foreclosing or otherwise enforcing this Mortgage.
4.12 Financial Reports. Mortgagor shall furnish to Mortgagee (a) within ninety (90) days following the end of each fiscal year of Mortgagor, Mortgagors quarterly and annual operating statements for the Property as of the end of and for the preceding quarter and fiscal year, as applicable, in each case prepared against the budget for such fiscal year, as may be applicable, (b) contemporaneously with the delivery of each of such operating statements of the Property, a rent roll certified, signed and dated by Mortgagor detailing the names of all tenants under the Leases, the portion of the improvements on the Property occupied by each tenant, the rent and any other charges payable under each Lease and the term of each Lease, (c) the annual balance sheet and profit and loss statement of Mortgagor and an annual balance sheet of each Guarantor and (d) the federal and state tax returns of each Guarantor not later than the date that is ten (10) days following the date that such federal and state tax returns are filed.
The financial statements and reports described in (a) and (c) above shall be in such form and in such detail as Mortgagee may require, shall be prepared on a tax basis (with respect to Mortgagor only) and shall be certified as true and correct by Mortgagor or each Guarantor, as may be applicable (or if required by Mortgagee, after the occurrence of an Event of Default, by an independent certified public accountant acceptable to Mortgagee). Mortgagor shall file and pay its annual tax returns and taxes in a timely manner. Mortgagor shall also furnish or cause to be furnished to Mortgagee within forty-five (45) after Mortgagees request, any other financial reports or statements of Mortgagor, including, without limitation, balance sheets, profit and loss statements, tax returns (within fifteen (15) days after filing with the applicable governmental authority), other financial statements, and certified rent rolls, required under any of the Loan Documents, requested by any regulatory or governmental authority exercising jurisdiction over Mortgagee, certified as true and correct by Mortgagor. Following the occurrence of any Event of Default, Mortgagor shall deliver to Mortgagee the items required in (a) and (b) above on a monthly basis. Mortgagors financial statements will be prepared by Shapiro, Goldstein and Moses or Kimmel Blau or a reasonable comparable firm selected by Mortgagor, and reasonably approved by Mortgagee.
4.13 Priority of Leases. To the extent Mortgagor has the right, under the terms of any Lease, to make such Lease subordinate to the lien hereof, Mortgagor will, at Mortgagees request and Mortgagors expense, take such action as may be reasonably required to effect such subordination. Conversely, Mortgagor will, at Mortgagees request and Mortgagors expense, take such action as may be necessary to subordinate the lien hereof to any future Lease designated by Mortgagee. The standard form of Lease used by Mortgagor shall provide that the Lease is subject and subordinate to the Mortgage and all future mortgages affecting the Property. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, however, Mortgagee shall provide an SNDA, in Mortgagees standard form, for each Lease that does not require Mortgagees approval under this Mortgage or that has been approved by Mortgagee; provided, however, that if any tenant under any such Lease requests a different form of such an agreement or modifications to Mortgagees standard form of such agreement, then Mortgagee shall use commercially reasonable efforts to negotiate a form of such an agreement that is mutually acceptable to Mortgagee and such tenant. In no event, however, shall Mortgagee be required to enter into a form of such agreement that is not commercially reasonably acceptable to Mortgagee.
4.14 Inventories; Assembly of Chattels. Mortgagor shall, from time to time at request of Mortgagee, deliver to Mortgagee a current inventory of the Chattels and the Intangible Personalty, in such detail as Mortgagee may require. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default hereunder, Mortgagor will at Mortgagees request assemble the Chattels and make them available to Mortgagee at any place designated by Mortgagee which is reasonably convenient to both parties.
4.15 Compliance with Laws, Existence, Etc. (a) Mortgagor shall comply in all material respects with all applicable laws, rules, regulations and orders and other governmental or quasi-governmental requirements and private covenants, such compliance to include, without limitation, maintaining all Permits and paying before the same become delinquent all taxes, assessments and governmental charges imposed upon Mortgagor or the Property. Mortgagor shall maintain all Permits necessary or desirable for the operation, ownership, use, development, occupancy and maintenance of the Property for its current use, and without limiting this covenant of Mortgagor, Mortgagor shall make application for renewals of any of the Permits prior to the expiration thereof. Mortgagor shall, promptly after receiving notice thereof, notify Mortgagee of any litigation, action, proceeding or investigation against Mortgagor or any Mortgagor Control Person or the Property before any court, governmental or quasi-governmental arbitrator or other authority and, upon reasonable request of Mortgagee, from time to time provide Mortgagee with status or other information in respect thereof. Mortgagor and each Mortgagor Control Person shall do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve, renew and keep in full force and effect its existence as a limited liability company, corporation or other entity, as may be applicable, and to maintain its authorization to perform the obligations under the Loan Documents. Neither Mortgagor nor any Mortgagor Control Person shall amend or modify its organizational documents so as to contravene any of the Loan Documents or to prevent the observance of the obligations under the Loan Documents. Mortgagor and each Mortgagor Control Person shall comply in material respects with all applicable laws, rules, regulations and orders and other governmental or quasi-governmental requirements, and shall obtain all authorizations, approvals and consents from, and shall make all notices and filings with, any court, governmental, authority or regulatory body, in respect of its right and ability to perform, or cause the performance of, the obligations under the Loan Documents. Mortgagor shall maintain its status as non-foreign person within the meaning of Sections 1445 and 7701 of the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the regulations issued thereunder.
(b) Right to Contest . Notwithstanding any other provision of this Mortgage, Mortgagor will not be deemed to be in default solely by reason of Mortgagors failure to comply with any applicable law, rule, regulation or order so long as, in Mortgagees judgment, each of the following conditions is satisfied:
(i) Mortgagor is engaged in and diligently pursuing in good faith administrative or judicial proceedings appropriate to contest the validity or applicability of such law, rule, regulation or order; and
(ii) Noncompliance with any such law, rule, regulation or order will not result in the loss or forfeiture of any property encumbered hereby or any interest of Mortgagee therein or result in any fines or other punitive actions or any loss or impairment of insurance coverage; and
(iii) Mortgagor deposits with Mortgagee, as security for any payment or performance which may ultimately be required, a sum equal to the amount of any fine, assessment or charge plus the interest, penalties, and other costs which Mortgagee reasonably estimates are likely to become payable if Mortgagors contest is unsuccessful.
If Mortgagee determines that any one or more of such conditions is not satisfied or is no longer satisfied, then Mortgagor shall comply with the law, rule, regulation or order in question, within thirty (30) days after Mortgagee gives notice of such determination.
4.16 Records and Books of Account. Mortgagor shall keep accurate and complete records and books of account, in which complete entries will be made, reflecting all financial transactions relating to the Property.
4.17 Inspection Rights. At any reasonable time, and from time to time, upon not less than 24 hours prior notice from Mortgagee, Mortgagor shall permit Mortgagee, or any agents or representatives thereof, to examine and make copies of and abstracts from the records and books of account of, and visit and inspect the Property and to discuss with Mortgagor the affairs, finances and accounts of Mortgagor. Mortgagor shall take all actions necessary or required under the Leases to effect such right of Mortgagee to inspect the Property.
4.18 Change of Executive Offices. Mortgagor shall promptly notify Mortgagee if changes are made in the location of Mortgagors primary executive offices.
4.19 Further Assurances; Estoppel Certificates. Mortgagor will execute and deliver to Mortgagee within ten (10) days after any request by Mortgagee, and pay the costs of preparation and recording thereof, any further documents which Mortgagee may reasonably request to confirm or perfect the liens and security interests created or intended to be created hereby, or to confirm or perfect any evidence of the Secured Obligations. Mortgagor will also, within ten (10) days after any request by Mortgagee, deliver to Mortgagee a signed and acknowledged statement certifying to Mortgagee, or to any proposed transferee of the Secured Obligations, (a) the balance of principal, interest, and other sums then outstanding under the Note and the other Loan Documents and (b) whether Mortgagor claims to have any offsets or defenses with respect to the Secured Obligations and, if so, the nature of such offsets or defenses.
4.20 Costs of Closing. Mortgagor shall on demand pay directly or reimburse Mortgagee for any costs or expenses reasonably incurred in connection with the closing of the Loan, including, but not limited to, fees of counsel for Mortgagee and costs and expenses for which invoices were not available at the closing of such loan, or costs and expenses which are incurred by Mortgagee after such closing. All such costs and expenses (together with interest thereon at the Default Rate from the date of demand by Mortgagee) shall constitute a part of the Secured Obligations, and may be included in the computation of the amount owed to Mortgagee for purposes of foreclosing or otherwise enforcing this Mortgage.
4.21 Fund for Electronic Transfer. All monthly payments of principal and interest on the Note, escrow deposits and other amounts due under this Mortgage or the other Loan Documents shall be made by Mortgagor by electronic funds transfer from a bank account established and maintained by Mortgagor for such purpose. Mortgagor shall establish and maintain such account until the Secured Obligations are fully paid and shall direct the depository of such account in writing to so transmit such payments on or before the respective due dates to the account of Mortgagee as shall be designated by Mortgagee in writing.
4.22 Use. Mortgagor shall use the Property solely for the operation of a warehouse and industrial office building and any other use consistent therewith and not otherwise in violation of any applicable laws and for no other use or purpose.
4.23 Management. The Property shall be managed by Mortgagor or any Property Manager (as defined below). The Property shall not be managed by any Person other than Mortgagor, except under a management agreement delivered to, and approved by, Mortgagee (the Management Agreement ) and with a property manager consented to by Mortgagee (the Property Manager ). Any substitute or replacement Property Manager or any other change in Property Manager shall be subject to the prior written consent of Mortgagee in its sole discretion. Mortgagor shall not permit any amendment to or modification of any Management Agreement, or management of the Property by any Person other than Mortgagor or Property Manager, without the prior written consent of Mortgagee. Any such Property Manager shall execute a Subordination Agreement in respect of its Management Agreement in form and substance satisfactory to Mortgagee.
4.24 Cash Management Lockbox.
(a) At or prior to the closing of the Loan, Mortgagee and Mortgagor shall enter into the Cash Management Agreement, pursuant to which Mortgagor and Mortgagee shall establish a lockbox account (Lockbox Account) into which all proceeds and revenues from the Property will be deposited, and a cash collateral account (Cash Collateral Account), into which such proceeds and revenues may be swept pursuant to Section 4.24(f) below, at a bank (the Lockbox Bank ) selected by Mortgagee, but reasonably acceptable to Mortgagor.
(b) Mortgagor shall, or shall cause each tenant at the Property and all other persons and/or entities that make payments in respect of the Property to, remit all amounts due with respect to the Property directly to a lockbox maintained by the Lockbox Bank or to wire such amounts directly into the Lockbox Account. Mortgagor and the Property Manager shall promptly deposit into the Lockbox Account any checks or payments they receive from time to time, notwithstanding such instructions to the tenants and such other person and/or entities, and Mortgagor and Property Manager shall hold any such checks or payments in trust for the benefit of Mortgagee until such checks or amounts are deposited into the Lockbox Account.
(c) The Lockbox Bank and the Servicer retained by Mortgagee to service the Loan shall be authorized and empowered to endorse any and all checks from tenants solely for deposit into the Lockbox Account.
(d) The Lockbox Account and the Cash Collateral Account shall be in the name of Mortgagee or Servicer, as secured party (or agent for secured party), and shall be under the sole dominion and control of Mortgagee. Mortgagor shall grant Mortgagee a first priority security interest in the Lockbox Account and Cash Collateral Account and shall take all actions requested by Mortgagee to perfect such security interest.
(e) Amounts on deposit in the Lockbox Account shall be swept daily into an operating account (the Operating Account ) maintained by Mortgagor unless and until Servicer receives notice from Mortgagee that a Triggering Event (as defined below) has occurred, in which event the cash flow sweep described in Section 4.24(f) below shall apply.
(f) Upon the occurrence of any Triggering Event, Mortgagee, at its option, may cause Servicer to daily sweep 100% of all proceeds and revenues from the Property in the Lockbox Account into the Cash Collateral Account, and Mortgagee shall apply the same, to principal, interest and/or any other amounts due Mortgagee under the Loan Documents and to the costs and expenses of the operation and maintenance of the Property in such order as Mortgagee shall elect. Each of the following shall constitute a Triggering Event: (i) a Default under, and as defined in, the Loan Documents; (ii) an Event of Default under, and as defined in, the Loan Documents; or (iii) the Trigger Event Debt Service Coverage Ratio shall be less than 1.20 to 1.00.
(g) With respect to the first two (2) Triggering Events only, following the cure of any Default or Event of Default (that is accepted by Mortgagee in its sole discretion) with respect to which Mortgagee has notified Servicer that a Triggering Event has occurred or provided that the Property and the Additional Properties have achieved a Debt Service Coverage Ratio of at least 1.20 to 1.00, for two (2) consecutive quarters, as applicable, and after Mortgagee has applied all proceeds and revenues as described above, Mortgagee will release all excess amounts remaining in the Cash Collateral Account to Mortgagor, and Servicer will resume sweeping proceeds from the Lockbox Account into the Operating Account as provided in Section 4.24(e) above. For the avoidance of doubt, Mortgagor shall have no right to cure a Triggering Event following the second Triggering Event and any subsequent Triggering Event shall continue until such time as all principal, interest and all other amounts due and payable to Mortgagee under this Mortgage and the other Loan Documents have been paid or repaid in full, as applicable.
4.25 Single Purpose Entity. Mortgagor shall at all times be a Single Purpose Entity.
4.26 General Indemnity. Mortgagor agrees that while Mortgagee has no liability to any Person in tort or otherwise as lender and that while Mortgagee is not an owner or operator of the Property, Mortgagor shall, at its sole cost and expense, protect, defend, release, indemnify and hold harmless the Indemnified Parties (defined below) from any Losses (defined below) imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against the Indemnified Parties, directly or indirectly, arising out of or in connection with the Secured Obligations, the Property (or any portion thereof), the Loan, or the Loan Documents, any and all claims for brokerage, leasing, finders or similar fees that may be made relating to the Property and the Secured Obligations, or the exercise by Mortgagee of any rights or remedies granted to Mortgagee pursuant to this Mortgage, the other Loan Documents or applicable law; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not apply (a) to any Losses caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Indemnified Parties or (b) to any disputes among the Indemnified Parties not caused in whole or in part by a breach of Mortgagors obligations under the Loan Documents. The term Losses shall mean any claims, suits, liabilities (including strict liabilities), actions, proceedings, obligations, debts, damages, losses (including, without limitation, unrealized loss of value of the Property), costs, expenses, fines, penalties, charges, fees, judgments, awards, and amounts paid in settlement of whatever kind including reasonable attorneys fees and all other costs of defense.

A Safe-Harbor Lease shall mean any proposed market Lease that meets the following criteria: (A) the base rent payable under such proposed Lease is not less than the base rent being paid being paid by the tenant occupying the space as of the date of this Mortgage; (B) the rentable area to be demised pursuant to such proposed Lease which, when combined with any other space in the Property leased to affiliated entities of the tenant under such proposed Lease, is less than 10,000 square feet, (C) such proposed Lease shall be for a term of no less than three (3) years and no greater than ten (10) years including any tenants extension options, and (D) such proposed Lease shall satisfy the additional leasing guidelines set forth below:
(i) A Lease will qualify as a Safe-Harbor Lease when such Lease comes into effect, provided each of the following conditions, in addition to the conditions set forth above, are satisfied: (a) such Lease does not contain any options to purchase, or other rights to acquire, the Property or any portion thereof or interest therein, (b) such Lease does not contain any material restrictions on Mortgagors rights to lease the remaining portions of the Property not covered by such Lease, (c) such Lease does not contain any extraordinary, uncustomary and unduly burdensome landlord obligations (including obligations which an unaffiliated landlord would have difficulty performing), (d) such Lease is entered into on the standard form of Lease approved by Mortgagee, without material modification thereto and provided it conforms with the leasing guidelines and Lease provisions hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, (e) such Lease is entered into on arms-length terms and (f) not later than the date that is ten (10) days following the execution of such Lease or a modification or amendment of a Safe- Harbor Lease, Mortgagor shall provide Mortgagee with a certified copy of such Lease or such modification or amendment, together with (i) all other items required to be submitted with any Lease pursuant to Section 5.3(b) , and (ii) a certificate certifying that the Lease (or, if applicable, such Lease together with such modification or amendment) is a Safe Harbor Lease as defined in this Mortgage and that the Lease (or, if applicable, such Lease together with such modification or amendment) satisfies in all material respects the requirements set forth herein to be a Safe Harbor Lease.
(ii) For the avoidance of doubt, Mortgagor may (without the prior written consent of Mortgagee) enter into any modification or amendment of any Safe Harbor Leases so long as such Safe Harbor Lease shall remain a Safe Harbor Lease following such modification or amendment.
(iii) Mortgagee agrees that for any proposed Lease that does not qualify as a Safe Harbor Lease, for which Mortgagor is required to obtain Mortgagees consent thereto, Mortgagee will attempt to respond within ten (10) business days, and Mortgagees consent shall not be unreasonably withheld based upon market conditions. Mortgagor shall be permitted to submit a Lease summary term sheet, for purposes of obtaining Mortgagees approval, which sets out all of the economic terms of the proposed lease, as well as any deviations from Mortgagee approved standard form of lease. Mortgagees consent will be contingent on tenant signing the Mortgagee-approved standard form of lease. Mortgagee will not be obligated to enter into an SNDA for any tenant for which Mortgagor is requesting Mortgagee lease approval until such time as an executed Lease that complies with the provisions of this Mortgage is delivered to Mortgagee. If Mortgagee has failed to respond to the written request for consent of a proposed Lease after five (5) business days after its receipt thereof, together with any additional information that Mortgagee may reasonably require to evaluate such proposed Lease, and Mortgagor has provided a subsequent five (5) business days written notice to Mortgagee requesting consent, each notice marked with a legend in bold capital letters stating: MORTGAGEE SHALL BE DEEMED TO HAVE CONSENTED TO THE MATTER CONTAINED HEREIN IF IT FAILS TO RESPOND TO THIS REQUEST FOR CONSENT WITHIN 10/5 ( as applicable ) BUSINESS DAYS AFTER THE DATE HEREOF, then Mortgagee shall be deemed to have consented to the same.
(e) Mortgagor shall provide Mortgagee with a certified rent roll, on an annual basis, certifying to Mortgagee the following items: (a) name of tenant, (b) date of Lease, (c) rentable square footage, (d) space or unit number, (e) commencement and expiration dates, (f) commencement date of rental payments, (g) monthly base rent, (h) rent abatements (if any), (i) rent escalations, (j) all other rent items (including reimbursable expenses), (k) percentage rent breakpoint (if any), (1) expense stop (if applicable), (m) deposits, (n) guarantor (if any), (o) date of guaranty (if any), (p) options to purchase, extend, expand, renew and/or teiininate, (q) operating covenant Go Dark rights, (r) co-tenancy clause and (s) any unextinguished tenant concessions.

(ii) There is no Event of Default at the time of such transfer;
(iii) If a change in the Property Manager for the Property (not a change in the manager or managing member of Mortgagor) will result from such transfer, Mortgagor shall enter into a Management Agreement with a Property Manager that has reasonably satisfactory experience operating and leasing property similar to the Property and that has a term no greater than one (1) year, may be cancelled on 30-days written notice (without cause and without any cancellation fee or charge), and which provides that the Property Manager shall subordinate its fees to the payment of the Loan, and otherwise complies with the terms of the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, Section 4.23 hereof);
(iv) Such Principal shall transfer an equal percentage of such Principals ownership interest in each of the other Borrowers such that each of the Principals percentage ownership interests of each of the Borrowers (including, without limitation, Mortgagor) shall be identical in respect of each other Borrower (including, without limitation, Mortgagor) both prior to and following any such transfer;

If any of the representations in such certificate prove to be untrue, the same shall be an Event of Default under each of the Loan Documents;
(vi) Mortgagor shall provide Mortgagee with reasonable evidence that such transfer shall not affect or impair Mortgagees security and rights under the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, the Additional Loan Documents), or other guaranty or undertaking relating to the Secured Obligations, including without limitation, the Guaranty Agreement and the Environmental Indemnity Agreement;
(vii) Paul Cooper, Jeffrey Ravetz and Louis Sheinker, if living, shall remain Guarantors, subject to the provisions of Section 4.32 , and if pursuant to Section 4.32 , any one or more of such Guarantors has been replaced, such replacement Guarantor shall remain a Guarantor subject to the provisions of Section 4.32 ; and
(viii) Mortgagor shall pay for all of Mortgagees costs and expenses associated with such transfer, including without limitation, attorneys fees charged by Mortgagees staff counsel or special counsel, whether or not such transfer is consummated.

7.1 Performance of Defaulted Obligations. Mortgagee may make any payment or perform any other obligation under the Loan Documents which either Mortgagor or any Guarantor has failed to make or perform, and Mortgagor hereby irrevocably appoints Mortgagee as the true and lawful attorney-in-fact for Mortgagor to make any such payment and perform any such obligation in the name of Mortgagor. All payments made and expenses (including attorneys fees) incurred by Mortgagee in this connection, together with interest thereon at the Default Rate from the date paid or incurred until repaid, will be part of the Secured Obligations and will be immediately due and payable by Mortgagor to Mortgagee. In lieu of advancing Mortgagees own funds for such purposes, Mortgagee may use any funds of Mortgagor which may be in Mortgagees possession, including, but not limited to, insurance or condemnation proceeds and amounts deposited for taxes, insurance premiums or other purposes.
7.2 Specific Performance and Injunctive Relief. Notwithstanding the availability of legal remedies, Mortgagee will be entitled to obtain specific performance, mandatory or prohibitory injunctive relief, or other equitable relief requiring Mortgagor or Guarantors to cure or refrain from repeating any Default.
7.3 Acceleration of Secured Obligations. Mortgagee may, without notice or demand, declare all of the Secured Obligations immediately due and payable in full.

To the extent permitted by law, Mortgagee may enter and take possession of the Property without seeking or obtaining the appointment of a receiver, may employ a managing agent for the Property, and may lease or rent all or any part of the Property, either in Mortgagees name or in the name of Mortgagor, and may collect the rents, issues, and profits of the Property. Any revenues collected by Mortgagee under this Section will be applied first toward payment of all expenses (including attorneys fees) incurred by Mortgagee, together with interest thereon at the Default Rate from the date incurred until repaid, and the balance, if any, will be applied against the Secured Obligations in such order and manner as Mortgagee may elect in its sole discretion.
7.6 Enforcement of Security Interests.

Any requirement for reasonable notice of the time and place of any public sale, or of the time after which any private sale or other disposition is to be made, will be satisfied by Mortgagees giving of such notice to Mortgagor at least five (5) days prior to the time of any public sale or the time after which any private sale or other intended disposition is to be made.

(iii) sell the Property or any part thereof and all estate, claim, demand, right, title and interest of Mortgagor therein, pursuant to power of sale or otherwise, at one or more sales, in whole or in parcels, at such time and place, upon such terms and after such notice thereof as may be required or permitted by law, and in the event of a sale, by foreclosure or otherwise, of less than all of the Property, this Mortgage shall continue as a lien on the remaining portion of the Property.

Any such sale or sales made under or by virtue of this Section 7.7 , whether made under the power of sale herein granted or under or by virtue of judicial proceedings or of a judgment or decree of foreclosure and sale, shall operate to divest all the estate, right, title, interest, claim and demand whatsoever, whether at law or in equity, of Mortgagor in and to the properties and rights so sold, and shall be a perpetual bar both at law and in equity against Mortgagor and against any and all persons or entities claiming or who may claim the same, or any part thereof, either from, through or under Mortgagor.
(f) Upon sale made under or by virtue of this Section 7.7 (whether made under the power of sale herein granted or under or by virtue of judicial proceedings or of a judgment or decree of foreclosure and sale), Mortgagee may bid for and acquire the Property or any part thereof and in lieu of paying cash therefor may take settlement for the purchase price by crediting upon the Secured Obligations the net sale price after deducting therefrom the expenses of the sale and the costs of the action and any other sums which Mortgagee is authorized to deduct under this Mortgage.
(g) Subject to the provisions of Section 18 of the Note and Section 9.21 of this Mortgage, the obligation of this Mortgage and of the Note shall continue until the Secured Obligations are paid in full notwithstanding any action or actions or partial foreclosure which may be brought to recover any amount or amounts for installments of principal, interest, taxes, assessments, water and sewer charges, rents and rates or insurance or other sums or charges due and payable under the provisions of this Mortgage.
(h) No recovery of any judgment by Mortgagee and no levy of an execution under any judgment upon the Property or upon any other property of Mortgagor shall affect in any manner or to any extent, the lien of this Mortgage upon the Property or any part thereof, or any liens, rights, powers or remedies of Mortgagee hereunder, but such liens, rights, powers and remedies of Mortgagee shall continue unimpaired as before, and notwithstanding any statutory rate of interest applicable with respect to judgments, after the entering of execution of any judgment, the Secured Obligations shall bear interest at the Default Rate until the Secured Obligations shall have been paid in full.
(i) In the event of a foreclosure of this Mortgage or the succession by Mortgagee to the interests of Mortgagor hereunder, the purchaser of the Property or such successor shall succeed to all rights of Mortgagor, including any right to proceeds of insurance and to unearned premiums, and in and to all policies or certificates of insurance assigned and delivered to Mortgagee pursuant to this Mortgage.
(j) Any assignee of this Mortgage and the Note shall take the same free and clear of all offsets, counterclaims and defenses of any nature (except for payments actually made) whatsoever which Mortgagor may have against any assignor of this Mortgage and the Note and no such offset, counterclaim or defense (except for payments actually made) shall be interposed or asserted by Mortgagor in any action or proceeding brought by any such assignee upon this Mortgage and/or the Note and any such right to interpose or assert any such offset, counterclaim or defense in any such action or proceeding is hereby expressly waived by Mortgagor.
(k) In any action or proceeding to foreclose this Mortgage, or to recover or collect the Secured Obligations, the provisions of law respecting the recovery of costs, disbursements and allowances shall also be applicable.
(1) Nothing in this Section dealing with foreclosure procedures or specifying particular actions to be taken by Mortgagee shall be deemed to contradict or add to the requirements and procedures now or hereafter specified by Connecticut law, and any such inconsistency shall be resolved in favor of Connecticut law applicable at the time of foreclosure.
7.8 Appointment of Receiver. To the extent permitted by law, Mortgagee shall be entitled, as a matter of absolute right and without regard to the value of any security for the Secured Obligations or the solvency of any person liable therefor, to the appointment of a receiver for the Property upon ex-parte application to any court of competent jurisdiction. Mortgagor waives any right to any hearing or notice of hearing prior to the appointment of a receiver. Such receiver and its agents shall be empowered, but shall not be obligated, to (a) take possession of the Property and any businesses conducted by Mortgagor or any other person thereon and any business assets used in connection therewith, (b) exclude Mortgagor and Mortgagors agents, servants, and employees from the Property, (c) collect the rents, issues, profits, and income therefrom, (d) complete any construction which may be in progress, (e) do such maintenance and make such repairs and alterations as the receiver deems necessary, (f) use all stores of materials, supplies, and maintenance equipment on the Property and replace such items at the expense of the receivership estate, (g) pay all taxes and assessments against the Property and the Chattels, all premiums for insurance thereon, all utility and other operating expenses, and all sums due under any prior or subsequent encumbrance, and (h) generally do anything which Mortgagor could legally do if Mortgagor were in possession of the Property. All expenses incurred by the receiver or its agents shall constitute a part of the Secured Obligations. Any revenues collected by the receiver shall be applied first to the expenses of the receivership, including attorneys fees incurred by the receiver and by Mortgagee, together with interest thereon at the Default Rate from the date incurred until repaid, and the balance shall be applied toward the Secured Obligations in such order or manner as Mortgagee may in its sole discretion elect or in such other manner as the court may direct. Unless sooner terminated with the express consent of Mortgagee, any such receivership will continue until the Secured Obligations have been discharged in full, or until title to the Property has passed after foreclosure sale and all applicable periods of redemption have expired.
7.9 Right to Make Repairs, Improvements. Should any part of the Property come into the possession of Mortgagee, after an Event of Default, Mortgagee may, but shall not be obligated, to use, operate, and/or make repairs, alterations, additions and improvements to the Property for the purpose of preserving it or its value. Mortgagor covenants to promptly reimburse and pay to Mortgagee, at the place where the Note is payable, or at such other place as may be designated by Mortgagee in writing, the amount of all reasonable expenses (including the cost of any insurance, taxes, or other charges) incurred by Mortgagee in connection with its custody, preservation, use or operation of the Property, together with interest thereon from the date incurred by Mortgagee at the Default Rate, and all such expenses, costs, taxes, interest, and other charges shall be a part of the Secured Obligations. It is agreed, however, except to the extent arising out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Mortgagee or its agents, that the risk of accidental loss or damage to the Property is undertaken by Mortgagor and Mortgagee shall have no liability whatsoever for decline in value of the Property, for failure to obtain or maintain insurance, or for failure to determine whether any insurance ever in force is adequate as to amount or as to the risks insured.
7.10 Surrender of Insurance. Mortgagee may surrender the insurance policies maintained pursuant to the terms hereof, or any part thereof, and receive and apply the unearned premiums as a credit on the Secured Obligations and, in connection therewith, Mortgagor hereby appoints Mortgagee (or any officer of Mortgagee), as the true and lawful agent and attorney-in-fact for Mortgagor (with full powers of substitution), which power of attorney shall be deemed to be a power coupled with an interest and therefore irrevocable, to collect such premiums.
7.11 Prima Facie Evidence. Mortgagor agrees that, in any assignments, deeds, bills of sale, notices of sale, or postings, given by Mortgagee, any and all statements of fact or other recitals therein made as to the identity of Mortgagee, or as to the occurrence or existence of any Event of Default, or as to the acceleration of the maturity of the Secured Obligations, or as to the request to sell, posting of notice of sale, notice of sale, time, place, terms and manner of sale and receipt, distribution and application of the money realized therefrom, and without being limited by the foregoing, as to any other act or thing having been duly done by Mortgagee, shall be taken by all courts of law and equity as prima facie evidence that such statements or recitals state facts and are without further question to be so accepted, and Mortgagor does hereby ratify and confirm any and all acts that Mortgagee may lawfully do by virtue hereof.
7.12 Rights to Funds Held Pursuant to the Reserve Agreements. Mortgagee may, in accordance with the Reserve Agreements, apply all or any portion of the funds by Mortgagee or its Servicer pursuant to the Reserve Agreements, or any other reserve or escrow account, to any and all of the Secured Obligations in such order of priority as Mortgagee shall elect in its sole and absolute discretion.
7.13 Remedies Under Other Loan Documents. Mortgagee may exercise any right or remedy provided for in any of the other Loan Documents, including, without limitation, the Additional Loan Documents.
ARTICLE 8
ASSIGNMENT OF LEASES AND RENTS
8.1 Assignment of Leases and Rents. Mortgagor hereby unconditionally and absolutely grants, transfers and assigns unto Mortgagee all Rents now or hereafter due or payable for the occupancy or use of the Property, and all Leases, whether written or oral, with all security therefor, including all guaranties thereof, now or hereafter affecting the Property; reserving unto Mortgagor, however, a license to collect and retain such Rents and all security for the Leases prior to the occurrence of any Event of Default. Such license shall be revocable by Mortgagee without notice to Mortgagor at any time that an Event of Default exists. Mortgagor represents that the Rents and the Leases have not been heretofore sold, assigned, transferred or set over by any instrument now in force and will not at any time during the life of this assignment be sold, assigned, transferred or set over by Mortgagor or by any person or persons whomsoever; and Mortgagor has good right to sell, assign, transfer and set over the same and to grant to and confer upon Mortgagee the rights, interest, powers and authorities herein granted and conferred. Failure of Mortgagee at any time or from time to time to enforce the assignment of Rents and Leases under this Section shall not in any manner prevent its subsequent enforcement, and Mortgagee is not obligated to collect anything hereunder, but is accountable only for sums actually collected.
8.2 Further Assignments. Mortgagor shall give Mortgagee at any time upon demand any further or additional forms of assignment or transfer of such Rents, Leases and security as may be reasonably requested by Mortgagee, and shall deliver to Mortgagee executed copies of all such Leases and security.
8.3 Application of Rents. Mortgagee shall be entitled to deduct and retain a just and reasonable compensation from monies received hereunder for its services or that of its agents in collecting such monies. Any monies received by Mortgagee hereunder may be applied when received from time to time in payment of any taxes, assessments or other liens affecting the Property regardless of the delinquency, such application to be in such order as Mortgagee may determine The acceptance of this Mortgage by Mortgagee or the exercise of any rights by it hereunder shall not be, or be construed to be, an affirmation by it of any Lease nor an assumption of any liability under any Lease.
8.4 Collection of Rents. Upon or at any time that an Event of Default exists, Mortgagee may declare all sums secured hereby immediately due and payable, and may, at its option, without notice, and whether or not the Secured Obligations shall have been declared due and payable, either in person or by agent, with or without bringing any action or proceeding, or by a receiver to be appointed by a court, (a) enter upon, take possession of, manage and operate the Property, or any part thereof (including without limitation making necessary repairs, alterations and improvements to the Property); (b) make, cancel, enforce or modify Leases (and any guaranties thereof); (c) obtain and evict tenants; (d) fix or modify Rents; (e) do any acts which Mortgagee deems reasonably proper to protect the security thereof and (f) either with or without taking possession of the Property, in its own name sue for or otherwise collect and receive such Rents, including those past due and unpaid. In connection with the foregoing, Mortgagee shall be entitled and empowered to employ attorneys, and management, rental and other agents in and about the Property and to effect the matters which Mortgagee is empowered to do, and in the event Mortgagee shall itself effect such matters, Mortgagee shall be entitled to charge and receive reasonable management, rental and other fees therefor as may be customary in the area in which the Property is located; and the reasonable fees, charges, costs and expenses of Mortgagee or such persons shall be additional Secured Obligations. Mortgagee may apply all funds collected as aforesaid, less costs and expenses of operation and collection, including reasonable attorneys and agents fees, charges, costs and expenses, as aforesaid, upon any Secured Obligations, and in such order as Mortgagee may determine. The entering upon and taking possession of the Property, the collection of such Rents and the application thereof as aforesaid shall not cure or waive any default or waive, modify or affect notice of default under the Note or this Mortgage or invalidate any act done pursuant to such notice.
8.5 Authority of Mortgagee. Any tenants or occupants of any part of the Property are hereby authorized to recognize the claims of Mortgagee hereunder without investigating the reason for any action taken by Mortgagee, or the validity or the amount of Secured Obligations owing to Mortgagee, or the existence of any default in the Note or this Mortgage; or under or by reason of this assignment of Rents and Leases, or the application to be made by Mortgagee of any amounts to be paid to Mortgagee. The sole signature of Mortgagee shall be sufficient for the exercise of any rights under this assignment and the sole receipt of Mortgagee for any sums received shall be a full discharge and release therefor to any such tenant or occupant of the Property. Checks for all or any part of the rentals collected under this assignment of Rents and Leases shall be drawn to the exclusive order of Mortgagee.
8.6 Indemnification of Mortgagee. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to obligate Mortgagee to perform or discharge any obligation, duty or liability of any lessor under any Lease of the Property, and Mortgagor shall and does hereby indemnify and hold Mortgagee harmless from any and all liability, loss or damage which Mortgagee may or might incur under any Lease or by reason of the assignment; and any and all such liability, loss or damage incurred by Mortgagee, together with the costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys fees, incurred by Mortgagee in defense of any claims or demands therefor (whether successful or not), shall be additional Secured Obligations, and Mortgagor shall reimburse Mortgagee therefor on demand.
ARTICLE 9
MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS
9.1 Time of the Essence. Time is of the essence with respect to all provisions of the Loan Documents.
9.2 Joint and Several Obligations. If Mortgagor is more than one person or entity, then: (a) all Persons comprising Mortgagor are jointly and severally liable for all of the Secured Obligations; (b) all representations, warranties, and covenants made by Mortgagor shall be deemed representations, warranties, and covenants of each of the Persons comprising Mortgagor; (c) any breach, Default or Event of Default by any of the Persons comprising Mortgagor hereunder shall be deemed to be a breach, Default, or Event of Default of Mortgagor; (d) any reference herein contained to the knowledge or awareness of Mortgagor shall mean the actual or constructive knowledge or awareness of the Guarantors; and (e) any event creating personal liability of any of the Persons comprising Mortgagor shall create personal liability for all such Persons.
9.3 Waiver of Homestead and Other Exemptions. To the extent permitted by law, Mortgagor hereby waives all rights to any homestead or other exemption to which Mortgagor would otherwise be entitled under any present or future constitutional, statutory, or other provision of applicable state or federal law. Mortgagor hereby waives any right it may have to require Mortgagee to marshal all or any portion of the security for the Secured Obligations. Notwithstanding the existence of interests in the Property, Chattels or Intangible Personalty other than that created by this Mortgage, and notwithstanding any other provision of this Mortgage, upon an Event of Default, to the extent permitted by applicable law, Mortgagee shall have the right, in Mortgagees sole discretion, to determine the order in which the Property, Chattels or Intangible Personalty shall be subjected to the remedies provided in this Mortgage and to determine the order in which all or any part of the Indebtedness secured by this Mortgage is satisfied from the proceeds realized upon the exercise of the remedies provided in this Mortgage.
9.4 Non Recourse; Exceptions to Non-Recourse. Except as expressly set forth in Section 18 of the Note and Section 9.21 of this Mortgage, the recourse of Mortgagee with respect to the obligations evidenced by the Note, this Mortgage and the other Loan Documents (except for the Guaranty and the Environmental Indemnity Agreement) shall be solely to the Property, Chattels and Intangible Personalty, and any other collateral given as security for the Note.
9.5 Rights and Remedies Cumulative. Mortgagees rights and remedies under each of the Loan Documents are cumulative of the rights and remedies available to Mortgagee under each of the other Loan Documents and those otherwise available to Mortgagee at law or in equity. No act of Mortgagee shall be construed as an election to proceed under any particular provision of any Loan Document to the exclusion of any other provision in the same or any other Loan Document, or as an election of remedies to the exclusion of any other remedy which may then or thereafter be available to Mortgagee.
9.6 No Implied Waivers. Mortgagee shall not be deemed to have waived any provision of any Loan Document unless such waiver is in writing and is signed by Mortgagee. Without limiting the generality of the preceding sentence, neither Mortgagees acceptance of any payment with knowledge of a Default by Mortgagor, nor any failure by Mortgagee to exercise any remedy following a Default by Mortgagor shall be deemed a waiver of such Default, and no waiver by Mortgagee of any particular Default on the part of Mortgagor shall be deemed a waiver of any other Default or of any similar Default in the future.
9.7 No Third Party Rights. No person shall be a third party beneficiary of any provision of any of the Loan Documents. All provisions of the Loan Documents favoring Mortgagee are intended solely for the benefit of Mortgagee, and no third party shall be entitled to assume or expect that Mortgagee will not waive or consent to modification of any such provision in Mortgagees sole discretion.
9.8 Preservation of Liability and Priority. Without affecting the liability of Mortgagor or of any other person (except a person expressly released in writing) for payment and performance of all of the Secured Obligations, and without affecting the rights of Mortgagee with respect to any security not expressly released in writing, and without impairing in any way the priority of this Mortgage over the interests of any person acquired or first evidenced by recording subsequent to the recording hereof, Mortgagee may, either before or after the maturity of the Note, and without notice or consent: (a) release any person liable for payment or performance of all or any part of the Secured Obligations; (b) make any agreement altering the terms of payment or performance of all or any of the Secured Obligations; (c) exercise or refrain from exercising, or waive, any right or remedy which Mortgagee may have under any of the Loan Documents; (d) accept additional security of any kind for any of the Secured Obligations; or (e) release or otherwise deal with any real or personal property securing the Secured Obligations. Any person acquiring or recording evidence of any interest of any nature in the Property, the Chattels, or the Intangible Personalty shall be deemed, by acquiring such interest or recording any evidence thereof, to have agreed and consented to any or all such actions by Mortgagee.
9.9 Subrogation of Mortgagee. Mortgagee shall be subrogated to the lien of any previous encumbrance discharged with funds advanced by Mortgagee under the Loan Documents, regardless of whether such previous encumbrance has been released of record.
9.10 Notices. Any notice, consent or approval required or permitted to be given by Mortgagor or Mortgagee under this Mortgage shall be in writing and will be deemed given (a) upon personal delivery, (b) on the first Business Day after receipted delivery to a courier service which guarantees next-business-day delivery, or (c) on the third Business Day after mailing, by registered or certified United States mail, postage prepaid, in any case to the appropriate party at its address set forth below:

Either party may change such partys address for notices or copies of notices by giving notice to the other party in accordance with this Section.
9.11 Defeasance. Upon payment and performance in full of all of the Secured Obligations, Mortgagee will, at the sole cost and expense of Mortgagor, execute and deliver to Mortgagor such documents as may be required to release this Mortgage of record or in accordance with Section 10.8 hereof, to assign this Mortgage as directed by Mortgagor.
9.12 Illegality. If any provision of this Mortgage is held to be illegal, invalid, or unenforceable under present or future laws effective during the term of this Mortgage, the legality, validity, and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Mortgage shall not be affected thereby, and in lien of each such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision there shall be added automatically as a part of this Mortgage a provision as similar in terms to such illegal, invalid, or unenforceable provision as may be possible and be legal, valid, and enforceable.
If the rights and liens created by this Mortgage shall be invalid or unenforceable as to any part of the Secured Obligations, then the unsecured portion of the Secured Obligations shall be completely paid prior to the payment of the remaining and secured portion of the Secured Obligations, and all payments made on the Secured Obligations shall be considered to have been paid on and applied first to the complete payment of the unsecured portion of the Secured Obligations.
9.13 Usury Savings Clause. It is expressly stipulated and agreed to be the intent of Mortgagee and Mortgagor at all times to comply with the applicable law governing the highest lawful interest rate. If the applicable law is ever judicially interpreted so as to render usurious any amount called for under the Note or under any of the other Loan Documents, or contracted for, charged, taken, reserved or received with respect to the loan evidenced thereby, or if acceleration of the maturity of the Note, any prepayment by Mortgagor, or any other circumstance whatsoever, results in Mortgagor having paid any interest in excess of that permitted by applicable law, then it is the express intent of Mortgagor and Mortgagee that all excess amounts theretofore collected by Mortgagee be credited on the principal balance of the Note (or, at Mortgagees option, paid over to Mortgagor), and the provisions of the Note and other Loan Documents immediately be deemed reformed and the amounts thereafter collectible hereunder and thereunder reduced, without the necessity of the execution of any new document, so as to comply with the applicable law, but so as to permit the recovery of the fullest amount otherwise called for hereunder and thereunder. The right to accelerate maturity of the Note does not include the right to accelerate any interest which has not otherwise accrued on the date of such acceleration, and Mortgagee does not intend to collect any unearned interest in the event of acceleration. All sums paid or agreed to be paid to Mortgagee for the use, forbearance or detention of the Secured Obligations evidenced hereby or by the Note shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread throughout the full term of such Secured Obligations until payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of such Secured Obligations does not exceed the maximum rate or amount of interest permitted under applicable law. The term applicable law as used herein shall mean any federal or state law applicable to the loan made by Mortgagee to Mortgagor evidenced by the Note.
9.14 Obligations Binding Upon Mortgagors Successors. This Mortgage is binding upon Mortgagor and Mortgagors successors and assigns, and shall inure to the benefit of Mortgagee, and its successors and assigns, and the provisions hereof shall likewise be covenants running with the land. The duties, covenants, conditions, obligations, and warranties of Mortgagor in this Mortgage shall be joint and several obligations of Mortgagor and Mortgagors successors and assigns.
9.15 Construction. All pronouns and any variations of pronouns herein shall be deemed to refer to the masculine, feminine, or neuter, singular or plural, as the identity of the parties may require. Whenever the terms herein are singular, the same shall be deemed to mean the plural, as the identity of the parties or the context requires. The term including shall mean including, without limitation. Each party hereto acknowledges that each party hereto and its respective counsel reviewed and revised this Mortgage and the other Loan Documents, and each party hereto agrees that any rule of construction to the effect that ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting party shall not apply in the interpretation of this Mortgage and the other Loan Documents.
9.16 Attorneys Fees. Any reference in this Mortgage to attorneys or counsel fees paid or incurred by Mortgagee shall be deemed to include paralegals fees and legal assistants fees. Moreover, wherever provision is made herein for payment of attorneys or counsels fees or expenses incurred by Mortgagee, such provision shall include but not be limited to, such fees or expenses incurred in any and all judicial, bankruptcy, reorganization, administrative, or other proceedings, including appellate proceedings, whether such fees or expenses arise before proceedings are commenced, during such proceedings or after entry of a final judgment.
9.17 Waiver and Agreement Regarding Prepayment.
(a) EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE EXPRESSLY PERMITTED HEREUNDER OR UNDER THE NOTE, MORTGAGOR HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE UNDER APPLICABLE LAW TO PREPAY THE NOTE, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, WITHOUT PREPAYMENT CHARGE, UPON ACCELERATION OF THE MATURITY DATE OF THE NOTE, AND AGREES THAT, EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE EXPRESSLY PERMITTED HEREUNDER OR UNDER THE NOTE, IF FOR ANY REASON A PREPAYMENT OF ALL OR ANY PART OF THE NOTE IS MADE, WHETHER VOLUNTARILY OR FOLLOWING ANY ACCELERATION OF THE MATURITY DATE OF THE NOTE BY MORTGAGEE ON ACCOUNT OF THE OCCURRENCE OF ANY EVENT OF DEFAULT ARISING FOR ANY REASON, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, AS A RESULT OF ANY PROHIBITED OR RESTRICTED TRANSFER, FURTHER ENCUMBRANCE OR DISPOSITION OF THE PROPERTY OR ANY PART THEREOF SECURING THE NOTE, THEN MORTGAGOR SHALL BE OBLIGATED TO PAY, CONCURRENTLY WITH SUCH PREPAYMENT, THE PREPAYMENT PREMIUM PROVIDED FOR IN THE NOTE (OR, IN THE EVENT OF ACCELERATION WHEN THE NOTE IS CLOSED TO PREPAYMENT, AS PROVIDED IN THE DEFINITION OF SECURED OBLIGATIONS SET FORTH IN ARTICLE 1 HEREOF). MORTGAGOR HEREBY DECLARES THAT MORTGAGEES AGREEMENT TO MAKE THE LOAN EVIDENCED BY THE NOTE AT THE INTEREST RATE AND FOR THE TERM SET FORTH IN THE NOTE CONSTITUTES ADEQUATE CONSIDERATION, GIVEN INDIVIDUAL WEIGHT BY MORTGAGOR, FOR THIS WAIVER AND AGREEMENT.
(b) If the maturity of the Note secured by this Mortgage is accelerated, Mortgagor shall pay a prepayment premium in an amount equal to any prepayment premium which would be payable under the terms of the Note as if the Note were prepaid in full on the date of the acceleration. If under the terms of the Note no voluntary prepayment would be permissible on the date of such acceleration, then the prepayment fee or premium shall be equal to one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the highest prepayment fee or premium set forth in the Note, calculated as of the date of such acceleration as if prepayment were permitted on such date.
9.18 Waiver of Jury Trial. MORTGAGEE AND MORTGAGOR KNOWINGLY, IRREVOCABLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT EITHER MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM BASED ON THIS MORTGAGE, OR ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS MORTGAGE OR ANY LOAN DOCUMENT, OR ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT, COURSE OF DEALING, STATEMENT (WHETHER VERBAL OR WRITTEN) OR ACTIONS OF ANY PARTY HERETO OR TO ANY LOAN DOCUMENT. THIS PROVISION IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR MORTGAGEE AND MORTGAGOR TO ENTER INTO THE LOAN TRANSACTION EVIDENCED BY THE NOTE.
9.19 Governing Laws; Forum.
(a) The substantive laws of the State of Connecticut shall govern the validity, construction, enforcement and interpretation of this Mortgage.
(b) Any legal suit, action or proceeding against Mortgagee or Mortgagor arising out of or relating to this Mortgage may at Mortgagees option be instituted in any federal or state court serving the Town of Orange, the Town of Shelton or the Town of Milford or the County of Fairfield or the County of New Haven, State of Connecticut and Mortgagor waives any objections which it may now or hereafter have based on venue and/or forum non conveniens of any such suit, action or proceeding, and Mortgagor hereby irrevocably submits to the jurisdiction of any such court in any suit, action or proceeding.
9.20 Entire Agreement. This Mortgage, together with the other Loan Documents, contains the entire understanding between the parties to the matters addressed herein, and may not be changed, amended, modified or waived except pursuant to a written agreement executed by the parties, and supersedes any other understandings or agreements with respect to the matters covered hereby.
9.21 Limitation on Liability. The provisions of Section 18(a) and Section 18(b) of the Note are incorporated herein by reference.
9.22 Claims Against Mortgagee. Mortgagee shall not be in default under this Mortgage, or under any of the other Loan Documents, unless a written notice specifically setting forth the claim of Mortgagor shall have been given to Mortgagee within three (3) months after Mortgagor first had knowledge of the occurrence of the event that Mortgagor alleges gave rise to such claim and Mortgagee does not remedy or cure the default, if any there be, promptly thereafter. Mortgagor waives any claim, set-off or defense against Mortgagee arising by reason of any alleged default by Mortgagee as to which Mortgagor does not give such notice timely as aforesaid. Mortgagor acknowledges that such waiver is or may be essential to Mortgagees ability to enforce Mortgagees remedies without delay and that such waiver therefore constitutes a substantial part of the bargain between Mortgagee and Mortgagor with respect to the Loan.
9.23 Acceptance of Cures for Events of Default. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Mortgage or the other Loan Documents, Mortgagee shall in no event or under any circumstance be obligated or required to accept a cure by Mortgagor or by any other person of an Event of Default unless Mortgagee agrees to do so in the exercise of its sole and absolute discretion, it being agreed that once an Event of Default has occurred, Mortgagee shall be absolutely and unconditionally entitled to pursue all rights and remedies available to it under the Loan Documents or otherwise at law or in equity.
ARTICLE 10
CONNECTICUT PROVISIONS
10.1 Principles of Construction. In the event of any inconsistencies between the terms and conditions of this Article 10 and the terms and conditions of this Mortgage, the terms and conditions of this Article 10 shall control and be binding.
10.2 Open-End Mortgage. This is an OPEN-END MORTGAGE made pursuant to and subject to all of the terms and provisions of Section 49-2(c) of the Connecticut General Statutes and the holder hereof shall have all of the rights, powers and protection to which the holder of an OPEN-END MORTGAGE DEED is entitled under Connecticut law. Upon request the Mortgagee may, in its discretion, make future advances to Mortgagor pursuant to the Note, notwithstanding any repayments or prepayments of the outstanding principal balance of the Note. Any such future advance and the interest payable thereon shall be secured by this Mortgage, equally with, and with the same priority over other claims as the original debt secured hereby when evidenced by promissory notes stating that the notes are secured hereby.

10.5 MORTGAGOR ACKNOWLEDGES, REPRESENTS AND WARRANTS THAT THE LOAN EVIDENCED BY THE NOTE IS FOR COMMERCIAL PURPOSES. MORTGAGOR FURTHER ACKNOWLEDGES, REPRESENTS AND WARRANTS THAT MORTGAGOR IS ENGAGED EXCLUSIVELY IN COMMERCIAL PURSUITS AND THAT THE PROCEEDS OF THE NOTE ARE TO BE UTILIZED IN THE BUSINESS ACTIVITIES OF MORTGAGOR AND WILL NOT BE UTILIZED FOR CONSUMER PURPOSES.

PROMISSORY NOTE
U.S. $2,716,700 |
|
March 8, 2011 |
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, and at all times hereafter specified, WU/LH 22 MARSH HILL L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company (Maker) , having an address at c/o Lighthouse Real Estate Management LLC, 60 Hempstead Avenue, Suite 718, West Hempstead, New York 11552, promises to pay to the order of FIRST SUNAMERICA LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY , a New York corporation, having an address at 1 SunAmerica Center, Century City, Los Angeles, California 90067-6022 (hereinafter referred to, together with each subsequent holder hereof, as Holder ), or at such other address as may be designated from time to time hereafter by any Holder, the principal sum of TWO MILLION SEVEN HUNDRED SIXTEEN THOUSAND SEVEN HUNDRED AND NO/100THS DOLLARS ($2,716,700), together with interest on the principal balance outstanding from time to time, as hereinafter provided, in lawful money of the United States of America.
By its execution and delivery of this promissory note (this Note ), Maker covenants and agrees as follows:
1. Interest Rate and Payments .
(a) The balance of principal outstanding from time to time under this Note shall bear interest at the rate of five and seventy-six hundredths percent (5.76%) per annum (the Original Interest Rate ), computed on the basis of a three hundred sixty (360) day year composed of twelve (12) months of thirty (30) days each; however, interest for partial months shall be calculated by multiplying the principal balance of this Note by the applicable interest rate (i.e., the Original Interest Rate or the New Rate (hereinafter defined)), dividing the product by three hundred sixty (360), and multiplying that result by the actual number of days elapsed.
(b) Interest only on this Note shall be payable on the date the loan evidenced by this Note (the Loan ) is funded by Holder, in advance, for the period from and including the date hereof through and including March 31, 2011.
(c) Commencing on May 1, 2011 and on the first day of each month thereafter through and including April 1, 2012, (each such date a Interest Only Payment Date ) payments of interest only shall be payable, in arrears, in the amount of $13,040.16.
(d) Commencing on May 1, 2012 and on the first day of each month thereafter through and including the first day of the month immediately preceding the Maturity Date (each such date a Principal and Interest Payment Date and together with any Interest Only Payment Date, referred to herein, collectively, as a Payment Date ), combined payments of principal and interest shall be payable, in arrears, in the amount of $17,107.35 each (such amount representing an amount that would be sufficient to fully amortize the original principal amount of this Note over a twenty-five (25) year period (the Amortization Period ), if such amortization were based on a three hundred sixty (360) day year composed of twelve (12) months of thirty (30) days each).
(e) The entire outstanding principal balance, and all other amounts due under this Note and the other Loan Documents (as hereinafter defined), together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, shall be due and payable in full on April 1, 2018 (the Maturity Date ).
2. Holders Extension Option; Net Operating Income . The provisions of this Section 2 concern the election of Holder to extend the term of the Loan for the Extension Term (as defined below) and certain obligations of Maker during the Extension Term.
(a) If Maker shall fail to pay the outstanding principal balance of this Note and all accrued interest and other charges due hereon and all other amounts due under the Loan Documents, at the Maturity Date, Holder shall have the right, at Holders sole option and discretion, to extend the term of the Loan for an additional period of five (5) years (the Extension Term ) and require Maker to make additional monthly payments of net operating income as provided herein. If Holder elects to extend the term of the Loan, Maker shall pay all fees of Holder incurred in connection with such extension, including, but not limited to, attorneys fees and title insurance premiums. Maker shall execute all documents reasonably requested by Holder to evidence and secure the Loan, as extended, and shall obtain and provide to Holder any title insurance policy or endorsement requested by Holder. If Holder elects to extend the term of the loan for the Extension Term, no Event of Default shall be deemed to exist solely by reason of the failure by Maker to pay such outstanding principal balance of this Note and all accrued interest and other charges due hereunder, and all other amounts due under the Loan Documents, on the Maturity Date.
(b) Should Holder elect to extend the term of the Loan as provided above, Holder shall: (i) reset the interest rate borne by the then-existing principal balance of the Loan to a rate per annum (the New Rate ) equal to the greater of (A) the Original Interest Rate, or (B) Holders (or comparable lenders, if Holder is no longer making such loans) then-prevailing interest rate for five (5) year loans secured by properties similar to the Property (hereinafter defined), as determined by Holder in its sole discretion; (ii) re-amortize the then-existing principal balance of the Loan over the Amortization Period; (iii) have the right to require Maker to enter into modifications of the non-economic terms of the Loan Documents as Holder may request (the Non-Economic Modifications ); and (iv) notwithstanding any provision set forth in the Loan Documents to the contrary, have the right to require Maker to make monthly payments into escrow for insurance premiums and real property taxes, assessments and similar governmental charges. Hence, monthly principal and interest payments during the Extension Term shall be based upon the New Rate, in an amount that would be sufficient to fully amortize the outstanding principal balance of the Loan over the Amortization Period.
(c) If Holder elects to extend the term of the Loan, Holder shall advise Maker of the New Rate on or prior to the Maturity Date, but in no event shall the term be extended unless Holder is entitled to do so under Section 2(a) above.
(d) In addition to the required monthly payments of principal and interest set forth above, commencing on the first day of the second month following the Maturity Date and continuing on the first day of each month thereafter during the Extension Term (each an Additional Payment Date ), Maker shall make monthly payments to Holder in an amount equal to all Net Operating Income (hereinafter defined) attributable to the Property for the calendar month ending on the last day of the month that is two months preceding each such Additional Payment Date.
For example, assuming the Maturity Date is January 1, then Net Operating Income for the period from January 1 through January 31 shall be payable to Holder on March 1; Net Operating Income for the period from February 1 through February 28 shall be payable to Holder on April 1, and so on.
(e) Holder shall deposit all such Net Operating Income received from Maker into an account or accounts maintained at a financial institution chosen by Holder or its Servicer in its sole discretion (the Deposit Account ) and all such funds shall be invested in a manner acceptable to Holder in its sole discretion. All interest, dividends and earnings credited to the Deposit Account shall be held and applied in accordance with the terms hereof.
(f) On the third Additional Payment Date and on each third Additional Payment Date thereafter, Holder shall apply all Excess Funds (hereinafter defined), if any, to prepayment of amounts due under this Note, without premium or penalty.
(g) As security for the repayment of the Loan and the performance of all other obligations of Maker under the Loan Documents, Maker hereby assigns, pledges, conveys, delivers, transfers and grants to Holder a first priority security interest in and to: (i) all Makers right, title and interest in and to the Deposit Account; (ii) all rights to payment from the Deposit Account and the money deposited therein or credited thereto (whether then due or in the future due and whether then or in the future on deposit); (iii) all interest thereon; (iv) any certificates, instruments and securities, if any, representing the Deposit Account; (v) all claims, demands, general intangibles, choses in action and other rights or interests of Maker in respect of the Deposit Account; (vi) any monies then or at any time thereafter deposited therein; and (vii) any increases, renewals, extensions, substitutions and replacements thereof and all proceeds of the foregoing.
(h) From time to time, but not more frequently than monthly, Maker may request a disbursement (a Disbursement ) from the Deposit Account for capital expenses, tenant improvement expenses, leasing commissions and special contingency expenses. Holder may consent to or deny any such Disbursement in its sole discretion.
(i) During the existence of an Event of Default (hereinafter defined), (i) Maker shall not be entitled to any Disbursement from the Deposit Account and (ii) Holder shall be entitled to take immediate possession and control of the Deposit Account (and all funds contained therein) and to pursue all of its rights and remedies available to Holder under the Loan Documents, at law and in equity.
(j) All of the terms and conditions of the Loan shall apply during the Extension Term, except as expressly set forth above, and except that no further extensions of the Loan shall be permitted.
(k) For the purposes of the foregoing:
(i) Excess Funds shall mean, on any Additional Payment Date, the amount of funds then existing in the Deposit Account (including any Net Operating Income due on the applicable Additional Payment Date), less an amount equal to the sum of three regularly scheduled payments of principal and interest due on this Note;
(ii) Net Operating Income shall mean, for any particular period of time, Gross Revenue for the relevant period, less Operating Expenses for the relevant period; provided, however, that if such amount is equal to or less than zero (0), Net Operating Income shall equal zero (0);
(iii) Gross Revenue shall mean all payments and other revenues (exclusive, however, of any payments attributable to sales taxes) received by or on behalf of Maker from all sources related to the ownership or operation of the Property, including, but not limited to, rents, room charges, parking fees, interest, security deposits (unless required to be held in a segregated account), business interruption insurance proceeds, operating expense pass-through revenues, direct expense reimbursements and common area maintenance charges, for the relevant period for which the calculation of Gross Revenue is being made; and
(iv) Operating Expenses shall mean the sum of all ordinary and necessary operating expenses actually paid by Maker in connection with the operation of the Property during the relevant period for which the calculation of Operating Expenses is being made, including, but not limited to, (a) payments made by Maker for taxes and insurance required under the Loan Documents and (b) monthly debt service payments as required under this Note.
3. Budgets During Extension Term .
(a) Within fifteen (15) Business Days (as defined below) following the Maturity Date and on or before December 1 of each subsequent calendar year, Maker shall deliver to Holder a proposed revenue and expense budget for the Property for the remainder of the calendar year in which the Maturity Date occurs or the immediately succeeding calendar year (as applicable). Such budget shall set forth Makers projection of Gross Revenue and Operating Expenses for the applicable calendar year, which shall be subject to Holders reasonable approval. Once a proposed budget has been reviewed and approved by Holder, and Maker has made all revisions requested by Holder, if any, the revised budget shall be delivered to Holder and shall thereafter become the budget for the Property hereunder (any such budget referred to as the Budget ) for the applicable calendar year. If Maker and Holder are unable to agree upon a Budget for any calendar year, the budgeted Operating Expenses (excluding extraordinary items) provided in the Budget for the Property for the preceding calendar year shall be considered the Budget for the Property for the subject calendar year until Maker and Holder agree upon a new Budget for such calendar year.
(b) During the Extension Term, Maker shall operate the Property in accordance with the applicable Budget for the applicable calendar year, and the total of expenditures relating to the Property exceeding one hundred and five percent (105%) of the aggregate of such expenses set forth in the applicable Budget for the applicable time period shall not be treated as Operating Expenses for the purposes of calculating Net Operating Income, without the prior written consent of Holder except for emergency expenditures which, in Makers good faith judgment, are reasonably necessary to protect, or avoid immediate danger to, life or property.
4. Reports During Extension Term .
(a) During the Extension Term, Maker shall deliver to Holder all financial statements reasonably required by Holder to calculate Net Operating Income, including, without limitation, a monthly statement to be delivered to Holder concurrently with Makers payment of Net Operating Income that sets forth the amount of Net Operating Income accompanying such statement and Makers calculation of Net Operating Income for the relevant calendar month. Such statements shall be certified by an executive officer of Maker or Makers manager, managing member or general partner (as applicable) as having been prepared in accordance with the terms hereof and to be true, accurate and complete in all material respects.
(b) In addition, on or before February 1 of each calendar year during the Extension Term, Maker shall submit to Holder an annual income and expense statement for the Property which shall include the calculation of Gross Revenue, Operating Expenses and Net Operating Income for the preceding calendar year and shall be accompanied by Makers reconciliation of any difference between the actual aggregate amount of the Net Operating Income for such calendar year and the aggregate amount of Net Operating Income for such calendar year actually remitted to Holder. All such statements shall be certified by an executive officer of Maker or Makers manager, managing member or general partner (as applicable) as having been prepared in accordance with the terms hereof and to be true, accurate and complete in all material respects. If any such annual financial statement discloses any inconsistency between the calculation of Net Operating Income and the amount of Net Operating Income actually remitted to Holder, Maker shall immediately remit to Holder the amount of any underpayment of Net Operating Income for such calendar year or, in the event of an overpayment by Maker, such amount may be withheld from any subsequent payment of Net Operating Income required hereunder.
(c) Holder may notify Maker within ninety (90) days after receipt of any statement or report required hereunder that Holder disputes any computation or item contained in any portion of such statement or report. If Holder so notifies Maker, Holder and Maker shall meet in good faith within twenty (20) days after Holders notice to Maker to resolve such disputed items. If, despite such good faith efforts, the parties are unable to resolve the dispute at such meeting or within ten (10) days thereafter, the items shall be resolved by an independent certified public accountant designated by Holder within fifteen (15) days after such ten (10) day period. The determination of such accountant shall be final. All fees of such accountant shall be paid by Maker. Maker shall remit to Holder any additional amount of Net Operating Income found to be due for such periods within ten (10) days after the resolution of such dispute by the parties or the accountants determination, as applicable. The amount of any overpayment found to have been made for such periods may be withheld from any required future remittance of Net Operating Income.
(d) Maker shall at all times keep and maintain full and accurate books of account and records adequate to reflect correctly all items required in order to calculate Net Operating Income.
5. Prepayment
(a) Maker shall have no right to prepay all or any part of this Note prior to the date that is the last day of the forty-second (42) month following the date of this Note (the Lockout Expiration Date ).
(b) At any time following the Lockout Expiration Date, Maker shall have the right to prepay the full principal amount of this Note, and all other amounts due under this Note and the other Loan Documents, and all accrued but unpaid interest thereon as of the date of prepayment, provided that (i) Maker gives not less than thirty (30) days prior written notice to Holder of Makers election to prepay this Note, (ii) Maker pays a prepayment premium to Holder equal to the greater of (A) one percent (1 %) of the outstanding principal amount of this Note or (B) the Present Value of this Note (hereinafter defined), less the amount of principal being prepaid, calculated as of the prepayment date and (iii) Maker prepays each of the other Additional Notes (as such term is defined in the Mortgage) and all other amounts due under the Additional Notes and the other Additional Loan Documents (as such term is defined in the Mortgage), and all accrued but unpaid interest thereon as of the date of prepayment.
(c) Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 5, no prepayment premium shall be due (i) in connection with any involuntary prepayment due to the Holders application of any insurance proceeds or condemnation awards to the principal balance of the Loan or (ii) if Maker provides additional funds to prepay the Loan in connection with the application of any insurance proceeds or condemnation awards to the principal balance of the Loan following any casualty or condemnation; provided, in any such case, that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such application of insurance proceeds or condemnation awards.
(d) Holder shall notify Maker in writing of the amount and basis of determination of the prepayment premium. Holder shall not be obligated to accept any prepayment of the principal balance of this Note unless such prepayment is accompanied by (i) the applicable prepayment premium, (ii) the outstanding principal balance of the Loan, (iii) all accrued interest and other sums due under this Note and all other amounts due under the Loan Documents and (iv) the outstanding principal balance of the Additional Loans (as such term is defined in the Mortgage) all accrued interest and other sums due under the Additional Notes and all other amounts due under the Additional Loan Documents. Maker may not prepay the Loan on a Friday, nor on any public holiday or the equivalent for banks generally under the laws of the State of New York or on any day preceding a public holiday, or the equivalent for banks generally under the laws of the State of New York.
(e) Except for making payments of Net Operating Income as required above, and except for the application of insurance proceeds or condemnation awards to the principal balance of this Note, as provided in the Mortgage (hereinafter defined), in no event shall Maker be permitted to make any partial prepayments of this Note.
(f) If Holder accelerates this Note for any reason, then in addition to Makers obligation to pay the then outstanding principal balance of this Note and all accrued but unpaid interest thereon, Maker shall pay an additional amount equal to the prepayment premium that would be due to Holder if Maker were voluntarily prepaying this Note at the time that such acceleration occurred, or if under the terms hereof no voluntary prepayment would be permissible on the date of such acceleration, Maker shall pay a prepayment premium equal to 150% of the highest prepayment premium set forth in this Note, calculated as of the date of such acceleration as if prepayment were permitted on such date.
(g) For the purposes of the foregoing:
(i) The Present Value of this Note with respect to any prepayment of this Note, as of any date, shall be determined by discounting all scheduled payments of principal and interest remaining to maturity of this Note, attributed to the amount being prepaid, at the Discount Rate. If prepayment occurs on a date other than a Payment Date, the actual number of days remaining from the prepayment date to the next Payment Date will be used to calculate such discount within such period;
(ii) The Discount Rate is the rate which, when compounded monthly, is equivalent to the Treasury Rate, when compounded semi-annually;
(iii) The Treasury Rate is the semi-annual yield on the Treasury. Constant Maturity Series with maturity equal to the remaining weighted average life of this Note, for the week prior to the prepayment date, as reported in Federal Reserve Statistical Release H. 15 - Selected Interest Rates, conclusively determined by Holder on the prepayment date. The rate will be determined by linear interpolation between the yields reported in Release H.15, if necessary. In the event Release H.15 is no longer published, Holder shall select a comparable publication to determine the Treasury Rate.
(h) Holder shall not be obligated actually to reinvest the amount prepaid in any treasury obligations as a condition precedent to receiving any prepayment premium.
(i) Notwithstanding the foregoing, (A) at any time during the Extension Term, Maker shall have the right to prepay in full, but not in part, the principal amount of this Note and all accrued but unpaid interest thereon as of the date of prepayment, without prepayment premium thereon and (B) no prepayment premium shall be due in connection with the prepayment of the full principal amount of this Note, and all other amounts due under this Note and the other Loan Documents, and all accrued but unpaid interest thereon as of the date of prepayment, during the ninety (90) day period prior to the Maturity Date.
6. Payments . Whenever any payment to be made under this Note shall be stated to be due on a Saturday, Sunday or public holiday or the equivalent for banks generally under the laws of the State of New York (any other day being a Business Day ), such payment may be made on the next succeeding Business Day.
7. Default Rate .
(a) The entire balance of principal, interest, and any other sums due under this Note and the other Loan Documents upon the maturity hereof, by acceleration or otherwise, shall bear interest from the date due until paid at the greater of (i) eighteen percent (18%) per annum and (ii) a per annum rate equal to four percent (4%) over the prime rate published in The Wall Street Journal on the first business day of each month (the Default Rate ); provided, however, that such rate shall not exceed the maximum permitted by applicable state or federal law. In the event The Wall Street Journal is no longer published or no longer publishes such prime rate, Holder shall select a comparable reference.
(b) If any payment under this Note or any of the Additional Notes is not made when due, interest shall accrue at the Default Rate from the date such payment was due until payment is actually made.
8. Late Charges . In addition to interest as set forth herein, Maker shall pay to Holder a late charge equal to four percent (4%) of any amounts due under this Note in the event any such amount is not paid when due. Notwithstanding the foregoing provision, Holder will allow for one (1) five (5) day grace period upon monetary default without the obligation of paying a late charge in any twelve (12) month period during the term of the Loan.
9. Application of Payments . All payments hereunder shall be applied in the following order: (i) first, to the payment of late charges, if any; (ii) second, to the payment of prepayment premiums, if any; (iii) third, to the repayment of any sums advanced by Holder for the payment of any insurance premiums, taxes, assessments or other charges against the Property securing this Note and any other costs and expenses incurred by Holder in accordance with the Loan Documents (together with interest thereon at the Default Rate from the date of advance until repaid), if any; (iv) fourth, to the payment of accrued and unpaid interest and other amounts due and payable under the Loan Documents (other than principal), if any; and (v) fifth, to the reduction of principal. Notwithstanding the foregoing, for so long as any Event of Default is continuing, Holder shall have the continuing right to apply any payment received by Holder from or on behalf of Maker as Holder may elect against the due and owing obligations of Maker under the Note and the other Loan Documents in such order of priority or in such allocations as Holder may deem advisable in its sole and absolute discretion.
10. Immediately Available Funds . All payments under this Note shall be payable in immediately available funds without setoff, counterclaim or deduction of any kind, and shall be made by electronic funds transfer from a bank account established and maintained by Maker for such purpose.
11. Security . This Note is secured by, among other things, (i) that certain (a) Open-End Mortgage, Assignment of Leases and Rents, Security Agreement and Fixture Filing, of even date herewith, granted by Maker for the benefit of Holder (the Mortgage ) encumbering certain real property and improvements located at 22 Marsh Hill Road, Orange, Connecticut 06477, as more particularly described in the Mortgage (the Property ), (ii) a Guaranty Agreement from Paul Cooper, Jeffrey Ravetz and Louis Sheinker (collectively, Guarantors ), in favor of Holder (the Guaranty ) and (iii) the Affiliate Guaranty (as such term is defined in the Mortgage).
12. Certain Definitions . Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings set forth in the Mortgage.
13. Event of Default . Each of the following events will constitute an event of default (an Event of Default ) under this Note and under the Mortgage and each other document evidencing or securing or executed in connection with the Loan (collectively, the Loan Documents ), and any Event of Default under any Loan Document shall constitute an Event of Default hereunder and under each of the other Loan Documents:
(a) any failure to pay when due any interest, principal or other amount in a sum certain under this Note or under any of the other Loan Documents for which sum there is a scheduled date for payment or for which there is a date certain for payment.
(b) any failure to pay within ten (10) days following demand by Holder for any amount other than any amount described in Section 13(a) above; or
(c) any failure of Maker to properly perform any obligation contained herein or in any of the other Loan Documents (other than the obligation to make payments under this Note or the other Loan Documents) and the continuance of such failure for a period of thirty (30) days following written notice thereof from Holder to Maker; provided, however, that if such failure is not curable within such thirty (30) day period, then, so long as Maker commences to cure such failure within such thirty (30) day period and is continually and diligently attempting to cure to completion, such failure shall not be an Event of Default unless such failure remains uncured for one hundred twenty (120) days after such written notice to Maker; or
(d) if, at any time during the Extension Term, Gross Revenue for any calendar month shall be less than ninety-three percent (93%) of the amount of projected Gross Revenue for such month set forth in the applicable Budget; or
(e) the occurrence of any event that is deemed to be an Event of Default under any provision of this Note, the Mortgage, the Affiliate Guaranty any other Loan Document or any Additional Loan Document.
14. Acceleration . If at any time an Event of Default exists, the entire balance of principal, accrued interest and other sums owing hereunder shall, at the option of Holder, become at once due and payable without notice or demand. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default described in Section 13(d) hereof, Holder shall have the option, in its sole and absolute discretion, to either (a) exercise any remedies available to Holder under the Loan Documents, at law or in equity, or (b) require Maker to submit a new proposed budget for Holders approval. If Holder agrees to accept such new proposed budget, then such budget shall become the Budget for all purposes hereunder. If an Event of Default exists, Holder may exercise any right, power or remedy permitted by law or set forth herein or in the Mortgage or any other Loan Document.
15. Conditions Precedent . Maker hereby certifies and declares that all acts, conditions and things required to be done or performed or have happened precedent to the creation and issuance of this Note, and in order to constitute this Note the legal, valid and binding obligation of Maker, enforceable in accordance with the terms hereof, have been done or performed or have happened in due and strict compliance with all applicable laws.
16. Certain Waivers and Consents . Maker and all parties now or hereafter liable for the payment hereof, primarily or secondarily, directly or indirectly, and whether as endorser, guarantor, surety, or otherwise, hereby severally (a) waive presentment, demand, protest, notice of protest and/or dishonor, and all other demands or notices of any sort whatever with respect to this Note, (b) consent to impairment or release of collateral, extensions of time for payment, and acceptance .of partial payments before, at, or after maturity, (c) waive any right to require Holder to proceed against any security for this Note before proceeding hereunder, (d) waive diligence in the collection of this Note or in filing suit on this Note and (e) agree to pay all out-of-pocket costs and expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys fees, which may be actually incurred in the collection of this Note or any part thereof or in preserving, securing possession of and realizing upon any security for this Note.
17. Usury Savings Clause . The provisions of this Note and of all agreements between Maker and Holder are, whether now existing or hereinafter made, hereby expressly limited so that in no contingency or event whatsoever, whether by reason of acceleration of the maturity hereof, prepayment, demand for payment or otherwise, shall the amount paid, or agreed to be paid, to Holder for the use, forbearance or detention of the principal hereof or interest hereon, which remains unpaid from time to time, exceed the maximum amount permissible under applicable law. In particular, it is the intention of the parties hereto to conform strictly to Connecticut and Federal law, whichever is applicable. If as a result of any circumstance whatsoever, the performance or fulfillment of any provision hereof or of any other agreement between Maker and Holder pertaining to the subject matter hereof shall, at the time performance or fulfillment of such provision is due, involve or purport to require any payment in excess of the limits then prescribed by applicable law, then the obligation to be performed or fulfilled shall hereby be reduced to such limit as to be valid under such applicable law, and if as a result of any circumstance whatsoever, Holder should receive as interest under this Note an amount which would exceed the then highest lawful rate, the amount by which such interest payment would exceed such highest lawful rate shall be applied to the reduction of the principal balance owing hereunder without prepayment or penalty (or, at Holders option, be paid to Maker) and in no event shall be counted as interest. To the fullest extent permitted by then applicable law, the determination of the legal maximum amount of interest shall at any and all times be made by amortizing, prorating, allocating and spreading in equal parts over the period of the full stated term of this Note, all interest at any time contracted for, charged or received from Maker in connection with this Note and all other agreements between Maker and Holder pertaining to the subject matter hereof, so that the actual rate of interest on account of the indebtedness represented by this Note is uniform throughout the term hereof and complies with all applicable law.
18. Non-Recourse; Exceptions to Non-Recourse .
(a) Nothing contained in the Loan Documents shall be deemed to impair, limit or prejudice Holders rights in foreclosure proceedings or in any ancillary proceedings brought to facilitate Holders foreclosure on the Property or any portion thereof or to exercise any specific rights or remedies afforded Holder under any other provisions of the Loan Documents or by law or in equity, subject to the non-recourse provisions set forth below, to recover under any guarantee given in connection with the Loan or to pursue any personal liability of Maker or any Guarantor under the Guaranty Agreement, the Environmental Indemnity Agreement or the ERISA indemnity provisions of the Mortgage. Except as expressly hereinafter set forth, the recourse of Holder with respect to the obligations evidenced by this Note, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents (except for the Guaranty and the Environmental Indemnity Agreement) shall be solely to the Property, Chattels and Intangible Personalty (as such terms are defined in the Mortgage).
Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary contained in this Note, the Mortgage or in any other Loan Document, nothing shall be deemed in any way to impair, limit or prejudice the rights of Holder to collect or recover from Maker (but not any member, manager, officer, director or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing, with the exclusion of the Guarantors) and Guarantors: (i) damages or costs (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys fees) incurred by Holder as a result of any intentional waste by Maker; (ii) any condemnation award or insurance proceeds attributable to the Property which were not paid to Holder or used to restore the Property in accordance with the terms of the Mortgage; (iii) any Rents, profits, security deposits, advances, rebates, prepaid rents or other similar sums attributable to the Property collected by or for Maker (x) following an Event of Default under any Loan Document and not properly applied to the reasonable fixed and operating expenses of the Property, including, without limitation, payments due on this Note and other sums due under the Loan Documents or (y) to the extent not deposited into the Lockbox Account; (iv) any security deposits collected by or for Maker and not applied in accordance with the applicable Leases (as such term is defined in the Mortgage); (v) the amount of any accrued taxes, assessments, and/or utility charges affecting the Property (whether or not the same have been billed to Maker) that are either unpaid by Maker or advanced by Holder under the Mortgage, except, in respect of the Property, to the extent of any of the foregoing accruing after the Termination Date (as hereinafter defined) with respect to the Property; (vi) any sums expended by Holder in fulfilling the obligations of Maker, as lessor, under any Lease affecting the Property; (vii) the amount of any loss suffered by Holder (that would otherwise be covered by insurance and available to Holder in accordance with the Loan Documents) as a result of Makers failure to maintain any insurance required under the terms of any Loan Document; and (viii) losses, damages and costs (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys fees) incurred by Holder as a result of any fraud of material misrepresentation by Maker in connection with the Property or any of the Loan Documents. For the avoidance of doubt, the matters set forth in this paragraph (a) shall be fully recourse to Maker (but not any member, manager, officer, director or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing, with the exclusion of the Guarantors) and Guarantor. For the purposes of this Section 18(a), the Termination Date is, in respect of the Property, the earliest of (x) the date that Maker tenders to Holder or Holders designee a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure in respect of the Property, subject to no title exceptions other than real estate taxes and assessments, the Permitted Exceptions (as defined in the applicable Mortgage) and such additional exceptions approved by Holder pursuant to the Loan Documents or which are otherwise acceptable to Holder in its reasonable discretion, together with such ancillary conveyances, releases and other documentation that are customarily delivered in connection with a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure transaction, all in form reasonably satisfactory to Holder, and such deed-in-lieu of foreclosure is accepted by Holder in its sole discretion (y) the date that Maker tenders to Holder a stipulation to entry of judgment of foreclosure in respect of the Property, and (z) the date Holder, any Affiliate of Holder, or any other party takes title to the Property in connection with a foreclosure of the applicable Mortgage that encumbers the Property. If Maker elects to deliver a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure in respect of the Property, Holder shall retain the right to determine whether to accept such deed-in-lieu of foreclosure or to proceed with foreclosure proceedings and, upon Holder making such election, Maker shall execute and deliver to Holder an appropriate deed-in-lieu of foreclosure in respect of the Property, as Holder shall have elected; provided, however, that if Holder chooses to proceed with foreclosure proceedings in respect of the Property, the Termination Date shall nonetheless be the earliest of the date specified in clause (x), (y) and (z) above, provided further that if Maker thereafter fails to cooperate with Holder in respect of Holders exercise of any and all remedies available at law or in equity to Holder (including, without limitation, foreclosure), then the Termination Date shall be the earlier of the date specified in clause (y) or (z) above.
(b) The agreement contained in this Section 18 to limit the personal liability of Maker to its interest in the Property, Chattels and Intangible Personalty shall become null and void and be of no further force and effect, and Maker (but not any member, manager, officer, director or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing, with the exclusion of the Guarantors) and Guarantors shall be personally liable for the repayment of the Secured Obligations (as such term is defined in the Mortgage) in the event (i) that the Property, or any part thereof or any interest therein, or any interest in Maker, or any of them, shall be further encumbered by a voluntary lien securing any obligation upon which Maker, or any of them, any direct or indirect general partner, manager or managing member such Maker, any Guarantor, any of the Mortgagor Control Persons (as defined in the Mortgage) or any principal or affiliate of Maker, or any of them, shall be personally liable for repayment, either as obligor or guarantor, (ii) of any breach or violation of Section 5.4, 5.5 or 5.7 of the Mortgage, (iii) that Maker forfeits the Property or the Chattels or any portion of the Property or Chattels due to criminal activity, (iv) any attempt by Maker, any Guarantor or any Mortgagor Owner Person (as defined in the Mortgage) to materially delay any foreclosure against the Property, Chattels and/or Intangible Personalty, or any portion of the Property, the Chattels and/or the Intangible Personalty or any other exercise by Holder of its remedies under the Loan Documents, which attempts shall (x) include, without limitation, (A) any claim made by Maker that any Loan Document is invalid or unenforceable to an extent that would preclude any such foreclosure or other exercise of remedies, (B) Maker filing a petition in bankruptcy, Maker acquiescing in an involuntary bankruptcy proceeding, Maker failing to oppose in good faith the entry of an order for relief pursuant to any involuntary bankruptcy filed against it, or Maker filing a petition or answer seeking any reorganization, arrangement, composition, readjustment, liquidation, dissolution or similar relief under the bankruptcy laws of the United States or under any other similar federal, state or other statute relating to relief from indebtedness (whether filed by or against Maker), or (C) the appointment of a receiver, trustee or liquidator by Maker, any Guarantor or any Mortgagor Owner Person with respect to Maker or the Property or any part thereof and (y) shall not include a defense to a foreclosure that is (A) not frivolous and is advanced in good faith and (B) based upon a default by Holder under terms of the Loan Documents, or (v) any execution, amendment, modification or early termination of any Lease of any Required Tenant made in violation of the Loan Documents. For the avoidance of doubt, no such termination of any Lease shall excuse Maker from the performance of its obligations under the Loan Documents. For purposes of the foregoing, affiliate shall have the meaning ascribed to the term Affiliate in the Mortgage.
19. Severability . If any provision hereof or of any other document securing or otherwise related to the indebtedness evidenced hereby is, for any reason and to any extent, deemed invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction or with respect to any person, entity or circumstances, then neither the remainder of the document in which such provision is contained, nor the application of such provision in respect of other persons, entities, or circumstances, nor any other document referred to herein, shall be affected by such invalidity or lack of enforceability, but, instead, shall be enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by law.
20. Transfer of Note . Each provision of this Note shall be and remain in full force and effect notwithstanding any negotiation or transfer hereof and any interest herein to any other Holder or participant.
21. Governing Law . Regardless of the place of its execution, this Note shall be construed and enforced in accordance with the substantive laws of the State of Connecticut.
22. Time of Essence . Time is of the essence of this Note.
23. Remedies Cumulative .

24. No Waiver . Holder shall not-by any act or omission be deemed to have waived any of its rights or remedies hereunder unless such waiver is in writing and signed by Holder and then only to the extent specifically set forth therein. A waiver of one event shall not be construed as continuing or as a bar to or waiver of any right or remedy granted to Holder hereunder in connection with a subsequent event.
25. Joint and Several Obligation . If Maker is more than one person or entity, then: (a) all persons or entities comprising Maker are jointly and severally liable for all of Makers obligations hereunder; (b) all representations, warranties and covenants made by Maker shall be deemed representations, warranties and covenants of each of the persons or entities comprising Maker; (c) any breach, Default or Event of Default by any of the persons or entities comprising Maker hereunder shall be deemed to be a breach, Default or Event of Default of Maker; and (d) any reference herein contained to the knowledge or awareness of Maker shall mean the knowledge or awareness of any of the persons or entities comprising Maker.
26. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL . MAKER AND HOLDER KNOWINGLY, IRREVOCABLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT EITHER MAKER OR HOLDER MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM BASED ON THIS NOTE, OR ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS NOTE, THE MORTGAGE, OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS OR ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT, COURSE OF DEALING, STATEMENT (WHETHER VERBAL OR WRITTEN) OR ACTIONS OF ANY PARTY HERETO OR TO ANY LOAN DOCUMENT.

(D) NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing, and of the covenants and agreements hereinafter set forth, it is hereby agreed that the Original Affiliate Guaranty shall be and hereby is, amended and restated in its entirety as follows:
3. Purpose and Consideration . The execution and delivery of this Amended and Restated Affiliate Guaranty by the Affiliate Guarantors (i) is a condition to Lenders willingness to make the Aggregate Loan to the Borrowers and consent to the Assumption and Modification pursuant to the Assumption Agreements; (ii) is made in order to induce Lender to make the Aggregate Loan and consent to the Assumption and Modification pursuant to the Assumption Agreements; and (iii) is made in recognition that Lender will be relying upon this Amended and Restated Affiliate Guaranty in making the Aggregate Loan and consenting to the Assumption and Modification pursuant to the Assumption Agreements and performing any other obligations Lender may have under the Loan Documents. Each Borrower and each Affiliate Guarantor is owned and controlled by substantially the same Persons as the other Borrowers and Affiliate Guarantors, and, accordingly, the Borrowers and the Affiliate Guarantors acknowledge that each of the Borrowers and Affiliate Guarantors will receive material direct and indirect benefit from Lender making the Aggregate Loan to the Borrowers.
4. Affiliate Guaranty. Each of the Affiliate Guarantors hereby guarantees, and becomes surety for, absolutely, primarily, unconditionally and irrevocably (a) the full and prompt payment of any and all other sums which may now be or may hereafter become due and owing under the Notes, the Security Instruments, and the other Loan Documents (collectively, the Payment Obligations ); and (b) the full and prompt performance of all other obligations of the Borrowers under the Notes, the Security Instruments and the other Loan Documents (collectively, the Other Obligations ; and together with the Payment Obligations, collectively, the Obligations ).
The liability of the Affiliate Guarantors with respect to the Obligations shall be joint and several, primary, direct and immediate, and not conditional or contingent upon pursuit by Lender of any remedies it may have against the Borrowers (collectively, or any of them, individually) or any other person, whether pursuant to the Notes, the Security Instruments or any other Loan Documents in connection therewith or any other document or agreement. The Affiliate Guarantors and Lender each acknowledge that this Amended and Restated Affiliate Guaranty is a guarantee of payment and not just of collection in respect of the Obligations that may accrue to Lender from the Affiliate Guarantors. The liability of the Affiliate Guarantors under this Amended and Restated Affiliate Guaranty shall continue after any assignment or transfer of the interests of Lender under this Amended and Restated Affiliate Guaranty made in conjunction with an assignment of the Aggregate Loan.
5. Affiliate Guaranty is Independent and Absolute . The obligations of the Affiliate Guarantors hereunder are independent of the obligations of Borrowers and of any other person who may become liable with respect to the Obligations. The Affiliate Guarantors are jointly and severally liable with Borrowers and with any other guarantor for the full and timely payment and performance of all of the Obligations. The Affiliate Guarantors expressly agree that a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against any or all of the Affiliate Guarantors (or any other guarantor), whether or not any action is brought against any Borrower, any other guarantor or any other Person for any Obligations guaranteed hereby and whether or not Borrowers, the other Guarantor, any other guarantor or any other Persons are joined in any action against the Affiliate Guarantors. The Affiliate Guarantors further agree that Lender shall have no obligation to proceed against any security for the Obligations prior to enforcing this Guaranty against the Affiliate Guarantors, and that Lender may pursue or omit to pursue any and all rights and remedies Lender has against any Person or with respect to any security in any order or simultaneously or in any other manner. All rights of Lender and all obligations of the Affiliate Guarantors hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional irrespective of (a) any lack of validity or enforceability of the Notes, the Security Instruments or any other Loan Document and (b) any other circumstances which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, any Borrower in respect of the Obligations.
6. Authorizations to Lender . The Affiliate Guarantors authorize Lender, without notice or demand and without affecting the Affiliate Guarantors liability hereunder, from time to time (a) to renew, extend, accelerate or otherwise change the time for payment of, change, amend, alter, cancel, compromise or otherwise modify the terms of the respective Notes, including increasing the rate or rates of interest thereunder agreed to by the Borrowers, and to grant any indulgences, forbearances, or extensions of time; (b) to renew, extend, change, amend, alter, cancel, compromise or otherwise modify any of the terms, covenants, conditions or provisions of any of the Security Instruments or any of the other Loan Documents or any of the Obligations; (c) to apply any security and direct the order or manner of sale thereof as Lender, in Lenders sole discretion, may determine; (d) to proceed against the Borrowers (collectively, or any of them, individually),or any other guarantor with respect to any or all of the Obligations without first foreclosing against any security therefor; (e) to exchange, release, surrender, impair or otherwise deal in any manner with, or waive, release or subordinate any security interest in, any security for the Obligations; (f) to release or substitute the Borrowers (collectively, or any of them, individually) any other guarantors, endorsers, or other parties who may be or become liable with respect to the Obligations, without any release being deemed made of the Affiliate Guarantors or any other such person; and (g) to accept a conveyance or transfer to Lender of all or any part of any security in partial satisfaction of the Obligations, or any of them, without releasing the Borrowers (collectively, or any of them, individually), or any other guarantor, endorser or other party who may be or become liable with respect to the Obligations, from any liability for the balance of the Obligations.
7. Application of Payments Received by Lender . Any sums of money Lender receives from or for the account of the Borrowers may be applied by Lender to reduce any of the Obligations or any other liability of the Borrowers to Lender, as Lender in Lenders sole discretion deems appropriate.
8. Waivers by the Affiliate Guarantors .

After the occurrence of a Triggering Event for which Lender, in its sole and absolute discretion, has (or has caused Servicer to) disbursed Cash Flow pursuant to the Triggering Event Waterfall, Lender shall (or shall cause Servicer to) resume disbursing Cash Flow pursuant to Section 4(a)(i) above within the later of (A) five (5) Business Days following the occurrence of all applicable Return Events, or (B) the first Disbursement Date following the occurrence of all applicable Return Events. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lender shall have no obligation to resume (or to cause Servicer to resume) disbursing Cash Flow pursuant to Section 4(a)(i) above if either (1) during the applicable Triggering Event Condition, any additional Triggering Event has occurred and is continuing, or (2) the disbursement order and priority set forth in the Triggering Event Waterfall has theretofore been triggered and commenced an aggregate of three (3) times.
(iv) Sufficiency of Funds . The Borrowers shall, jointly and severally, be obligated to pay out of its own funds such fees due pursuant to Section 9 below, Additional Amounts, Scheduled Monthly Payments, Operating Expenses and Monthly Impounds, if Funds available in the Lockbox Account and allocable to such amounts are insufficient to pay the same as and when the same become due. Subject to Section 4(e) below, during any period in which Cash Flow is disbursed pursuant to the Triggering Event Waterfall, if the amount of Funds on deposit in the Lockbox Account on each Disbursement Date, plus any additional amounts paid by Borrower pursuant to this Section 4(a)(iv) or Section 7(b) below, shall be sufficient to pay, and are available and allocable from the Lockbox Account (or are otherwise provided by the Borrowers pursuant to this Section 4(a)(iv) or Section 7(b) below) to pay all Additional Amounts, Scheduled Monthly Payments and Monthly Impounds due on such Disbursement Date, then such circumstance shall constitute timely performance of Borrowers obligations to make the applicable required payments of Additional Amounts, Scheduled Monthly Payments and Monthly Impounds due on such Disbursement Date under each of the Notes and the other Loan Documents.
(b) Capital Proceeds . Except as provided otherwise in any of the Loan Documents, Capital Proceeds will be held by Servicer and applied pursuant to the terms of the Mortgages.
(c) Disbursements from Excess Cash Subaccount . If any Funds are then available in the Excess Cash Subaccount in excess of those amounts required by Lender, in Lenders sole discretion, to make the disbursements set forth in Sections 4(a)(ii)(A) through 4(a)(ii)(I) for any period established therefor by Lender, and the Borrowers desire to request that all or any portion of such Funds be used to pay Capital Improvement Costs, then the Borrowers shall contact Lender and request a disbursement of Funds from the Excess Cash Subaccount to pay such Capital Improvement Costs (each a Request for Disbursement ), at which time Lender will inform the Borrowers of Lenders then-existing and customary draw request requirements and conditions which need to be complied with by the Borrowers in connection with such Request for Disbursement and, upon compliance therewith by the Borrowers, Lender will review, process, approve and/or disapprove, in whole or in part, Borrowers Request for Disbursement in accordance with such requirements and conditions, provided however that Lender may deny any such Request for Disbursement in its sole discretion for any reason or no reason at all. Without limiting the foregoing, disbursements hereunder shall additionally be subject to the Borrowers satisfying the terms and conditions for such disbursements set forth in the applicable Reserve Agreement, and no disbursements shall be made hereunder for capital improvements or tenant improvement costs or leasing commissions until the full amount available for such purposes under the applicable Reserve Agreement, shall have been fully disbursed.
(d) Balance Remaining in Lockbox Account. Subsequent to each Disbursement Date, all Funds (if any) remaining in the Lockbox Account after application pursuant to Section 4(a) above shall remain a part of the Lockbox Account as security for the full and timely payment and performance of the Secured Obligations until such time as the Secured Obligations have been fully satisfied, at which time the balance, if any, of the Lockbox Account shall be disbursed to the Borrowers in accordance with Section 28 below. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, Capital Proceeds shall be disbursed pursuant to Section 4(b) above.
(e) Application During Event of Default . Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in addition to exercising any or all of its other rights and remedies under the Loan Documents or applicable law, during the existence of an Event of Default, Lender may, at its option (i) direct Servicer in writing, to pay over to Lender all or any part of the Funds in the Lockbox Account specified by Lender in such written direction, without demand or notice to any Borrower, (ii) setoff or recoup or otherwise apply all or any part of the Funds in the Lockbox Account against all or any part of the Loans (whether matured, unmatured, due or not yet due), in such order and priority as Lender shall determine in its sole and absolute discretion, (iii) apply all or any part of the Funds in the Lockbox Account to satisfy any of the other obligations of the Borrowers, or any of them, under the Loan Documents, and/or (iv) hold all or any part of the Funds as additional cash collateral for the Loans without applying the same pursuant to clauses (i) through (iii) above and without any obligation to disburse any or all of such Funds pursuant to Sections 4(a) or 4(b) above. Promptly after receiving such written direction, Servicer shall pay over to Lender all of the Funds in the Lockbox Account or the part thereof specified in such written direction, as the case may be.
(f) Extension Term . If Lender elects to extend the term of any of the Loans for the Extension Term as provided in each of the Notes, then for so long as this Agreement is in effect, the terms of this Agreement shall control and apply in lieu of the provisions of Sections 2(d) through (k) , inclusive, of each of the Notes, and Funds will be held and disbursed hereunder as if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and Lender has determined that a Triggering Event Condition exists with respect to such Event of Default.

(v) a calculation of any Permitted Operating Expense Deviations that were funded not out of disbursements into the Operating Account from the Lockbox Account pursuant to Section 4(a) above, but by the Borrowers, or any of them, out of other amounts in the Operating Account or otherwise (such amount being referred to as the Borrower Funded Operating Shortfall );
(vi) a calculation of the amount (if any) by which all disbursements made pursuant to Section 4(a)(ii)(C) above during such Reconciliation Period exceeded the actual Operating Expenses and Permitted Operating Expense Deviations (such amount, the Operating Expense Overpayment ); and

(c) Operating Expense Shortfalls and Overpayments .
(i) If Lender approves the reconciliation report delivered by the Borrowers pursuant to the terms of this Section 5 , then (A) on the Disbursement Date first occurring after Lenders approval of such reconciliation report, an amount equal to the Borrower Funded Operating Shortfall shall be disbursed to the Operating Account out of Cash Flow available for disbursement pursuant to Section 4(a)(ii)(E) above, or (B) no later than thirty (30) days after Lender notifies the Borrowers in writing of the Operating Expense Overpayment, the Borrowers shall deposit the amount of such Operating Expense Overpayment into the Lockbox Account in immediately available funds for disbursement together with any and all other Cash Flow on deposit in the Lockbox Account as of such Disbursement Date.
(ii) If the Borrowers fail to deposit the Operating Expense Overpayment into the Lockbox Account within such thirty (30) day period, Lender may, in its sole and absolute discretion, deduct the amount of the Operating Expense Overpayment from any amounts that would otherwise be disbursed to any Borrower pursuant to Section 4(a)(ii)(C) above.
(iii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, any disbursements to the Operating Account to be made pursuant to Section 5(c)(i)(A) above shall be limited solely to the amount of Cash Flow available for distribution pursuant to Section 4(a)(ii)(E) above.

(a) Trigger Event Debt Service Coverage Ratio Reports .

All such books and records shall be kept at the offices of the Borrowers and Lender shall have the right to inspect, copy and audit such books of account and records, during reasonable business hours, and upon reasonable notice to the Borrowers, whether such books and records are in the possession of any Borrower or any agent of any Borrower.
(c) Additional Information . At any time and from time to time upon reasonable request and reasonable notice by Lender or Servicer, the Borrowers shall provide Lender with copies of all bank statements, invoices, cancelled checks and other information relating to any accounts maintained by the Borrowers, or any of them, any asset manager or any property manager with respect to each Property in each such case, and all payments and disbursements therefrom.
7. Budget .
(a) Delivery and Approval of Budget . Within ten (10) Business Days after demand made by Lender to the Borrowers during any period in which Cash Flow is being applied pursuant to the Triggering Event Waterfall, and on or before December 1st of each calendar year, the Borrowers shall deliver to Lender a proposed revenue and expense budget for each Property for the immediately succeeding calendar year (or portion thereof, as applicable, when referring to the initial budget to be submitted in connection with Lenders demand above). Such budget shall set forth Borrowers projection of Gross Revenues, Operating Expenses and Capital Improvement Costs for the applicable calendar year (or portion thereof with respect to the first budget) in respect of each Property. All budgets shall be subject to Lenders reasonable approval. Lender shall approve or disapprove a proposed budget submitted by the Borrowers within ten (10) Business Days after Lenders receipt thereof. Once a proposed budget has been reviewed and approved by Lender, and the Borrowers have made all reasonable revisions requested by Lender, if any, the revised budget shall be delivered to Lender and shall thereafter become the budget for each Property hereunder (the Approved Budget ) for the applicable calendar year.
If Borrower and Lender are unable to agree upon an Approved Budget for any calendar year (or portion thereof, as applicable), the Approved Budget for each Property for the preceding calendar year shall be considered the interim approved budget (the Interim Budget ) for such Property for the subject calendar year (or portion thereof, as applicable) until Borrower and Lender agree upon an Approved Budget for such calendar year (or portion thereof, as applicable); provided, however, that the following adjustments shall be made to the previous calendar years Approved Budget for purposes of determining the Interim Budget for the current calendar year (or portion thereof) before Lender and the Borrowers agree upon the Approved Budget in respect of each Property for the current calendar year (or portion thereof): (i) rent payable by Tenants pursuant to Leases shall be included in the Interim Budget in the amounts required from the Tenants pursuant to their Leases, (ii) property management fees shall be included in the Interim Budget in the same percentage of rents as in the previous year, (iii) extraordinary items such as, but not limited to, special assessments that do not require continuing payments shall be excluded, (iv) Non-Discretionary Expenses shall be included in the Interim Budget in the actual amounts incurred during the last calendar year, and (v) Capital Improvement Costs shall not be included in the Interim Budget except to the extent that Borrower shall have previously committed to pay such Capital Improvement Costs, Lender determines in Lenders reasonable discretion that such Capital Improvement Costs were committed to by Borrower in good faith and not as an attempt to manipulate the budget process described herein, and Lender had previously approved disbursements for such Capital Improvements, or portions thereof, pursuant to Section 4(c) above. In addition, notwithstanding any other term or provision of this Agreement, during any calendar year (or portion thereof) in which an Approved Budget is required hereunder, the Borrowers shall not be entitled to receive any disbursements into the Operating Account pursuant to Section 5(c)(i) until and unless Lender and Borrower have agreed upon an Approved Budget (and not an Interim Budget) for the then-current calendar year (or portion thereof, as applicable).
(b) Operation in Accordance with Budget; Permitted Deviations . The Borrowers shall use commercially reasonable efforts to operate each Property in accordance with the Approved or Interim Budget (as applicable) for the applicable calendar year (or portion thereof). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrowers are permitted to deviate from the Approved or Interim Budget (as applicable) to the extent necessary for Emergency Expenditures, Non-Discretionary Expenses, or if not for Emergency Expenditures and Non-Discretionary Expenses, then as otherwise approved by Lender in its sole and absolute discretion (such permitted deviations referred to as the Permitted Operating Expense Deviations ). Nothing herein shall prevent any Borrower from making any payment with respect to any Property as determined by such Borrower to be necessary or appropriate to protect such Property or such Borrowers interest therein, whether or not Lender shall approve of the same.
8. Grant of Security Interest .
(a) Each Borrower hereby grants to Lender a security interest in the Collateral (as hereinafter defined) to secure the timely payment and performance by each Borrower of the Secured Obligations. The term Collateral means all Funds, all money or cash from time to time on deposit in the Lockbox Account, all Borrowers right, title and interest in and to the Lockbox Account and the Funds; all proceeds and all rights to payment from the Lockbox Account and the Funds; all interest accruing thereon; any certificates, instruments and securities or other investment property (as defined in the Uniform Commercial Code of the state in which the Property is located), if any, representing the Funds; all claims, demands, general intangibles, choses in action and other rights or interests of each Borrower in respect of the Lockbox Account and the Funds; any increases, renewals, extensions, substitutions and replacements thereof; and all proceeds of the foregoing. To the extent Lenders security interest in any portion of the Collateral may be perfected by possession thereof, Lender shall be deemed to be in possession of the same by virtue of Servicer holding the Collateral as Lenders agent and for Lenders benefit in accordance with this Agreement.
To the extent Lenders security interest in any portion of the Collateral may be perfected by control thereof, Lender shall be deemed to be in control of the same by virtue of Servicer, in its capacity as Lenders agent with respect to the Collateral, being a customer of the bank in which Servicer holds the Collateral. Each Borrower hereby represents and warrants to Lender that as of the date hereof, the Collateral is free and clear of all liens, encumbrances and claims of any party, except for the security interest and rights of Lender granted hereunder. Except for the liens, encumbrances and security interests granted to Lender hereunder and under the Loan Documents, no Borrower shall create or permit the creation of any lien, encumbrance of security interest in or to the Collateral during the term of the Loans for so long as such Collateral is held by Lender, or by Servicer as agent for Lender, hereunder.
(b) At its option, Lender may notify the financial institution that holds the Lockbox Account of Lenders security interest in such account. Each Borrower hereby authorizes Lender to file such financing statements in such locations as Lender deems reasonably necessary to perfect its security interest in the Collateral, and each Borrower hereby agrees to execute such other documents as Lender may reasonably request to perfect the rights assigned and the security interest granted by this Agreement, and shall pay the cost of filing such financing statements in such offices in such jurisdictions as Lender may reasonably require.
(c) Lender and each Borrower hereby acknowledge that upon the filing of a bankruptcy petition by or against any Borrower under the United States Bankruptcy Code ( Bankruptcy Code ), the Collateral (whether collected or uncollected, or then due or becoming due thereafter) shall be deemed not to be property of the such Borrowers bankruptcy estate within the meaning of Section 541 of the Bankruptcy Code. In the event, however, that a court of competent jurisdiction determines that, notwithstanding the foregoing characterization of the Collateral by any Borrower and Lender, the Collateral does constitute property of such Borrowers bankruptcy estate, then Lender and such Borrower hereby further acknowledge that all such Collateral, whether due and payable before or after the filing of the petition, is, and shall be, cash collateral of Lender pursuant to Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code. Each Borrower acknowledges that Lender does not consent to any Borrowers use of such Collateral (except to the extent expressly provided for in this Agreement or ordered by a United States bankruptcy court) and that, in the event Lender elects (in its sole discretion) to give consent to such use, such consent shall only be effective if given in writing and if provided to Servicer. Except as provided in the immediately preceding sentence, no Borrower shall have any right to use or apply or to require the use or application of such Collateral (i) unless such Borrower shall have received a court order authorizing the same, and (ii) such Borrower shall have provided such adequate protection to Lender as shall be required by the bankruptcy court.
9. Fees and Expenses; Administration by Servicer . The Borrowers shall, jointly and severally, (a) pay all reasonable third party out-of-pocket fees and expenses incurred by Lender (including servicing fees) or Servicer in connection with disbursements under this Agreement, the establishment and maintenance of any interest-bearing segregated bank accounts as may be required or permitted under this Agreement, or the documentation thereof, including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys fees and costs and bank fees and charges, and (b) execute and deliver all documents reasonably requested by Lender to evidence and secure the Secured Obligations following any such disbursements.
Without limiting the foregoing, each Borrower acknowledges and agrees that Lender may delegate the administration and review of requests for disbursement (including, without limitation, review of any and all materials submitted by the Borrowers in connection with such request and preparation of written reports to Lender summarizing such materials and recommending whether the request should be granted) to Servicer, that Lender may cause Servicer to open and maintain any bank accounts described herein on behalf of or in Lenders name, and that the Borrowers shall, jointly and severally pay all fees and expenses in connection therewith. The Borrowers shall jointly and severally indemnify and hold harmless Lender from and against any liability to Servicer in respect of such fees and expenses.
10. Notices . All notices or instructions required or permitted to be given under this Agreement shall be in writing, and delivered in accordance with the notice provisions set forth in the applicable Mortgage.

The parties waive the right to assert that such court is located in an inconvenient forum.
12. Counterparts . This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute the same agreement.
13. Further Assurances . Each Borrower shall cooperate with Lender and its Servicer and shall execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, all such other documents and instruments, and shall take all such other action that Lender may reasonably request from time to time in order to accomplish and satisfy the provisions and purposes of this Agreement (including, without limitation, any actions reasonably necessary to accomplish the grant to Lender of a first priority security interest in the Collateral and the perfection thereof).
14. Liability of Lender and Servicer . Lender and Servicer shall have no liability to any Borrower for any losses which may be incurred as a result of the deposits held in the Lockbox Account (except any losses which may be incurred by Borrower as a result of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Lender or Servicer). The powers conferred on Lender and Servicer hereunder with respect to such Lockbox Account are solely to protect Lenders interest in the Funds in such Lockbox Account.
15. Events of Default; Remedies . The occurrence and continuation of any one or more of the following events shall constitute an Event of Default under this Agreement and under each other Loan Document:

(b) If any Borrower fails to perform any of the terms and conditions of this Agreement and if such failure is with respect to a non-monetary obligation under this Agreement, and such failure is not cured within thirty (30) days following receipt by any Borrower of written notice thereof from Lender (provided that if the default is not curable within thirty (30) days, but such Borrower commences to cure within such 30-day period and diligently proceeds to cure, then such Borrower shall have up to one hundred twenty (120) additional days after such 30-day period to cure); or
(c) The occurrence of any Event of Default as such term is defined in the Mortgages or any of the other Loan Documents.
Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Lender shall be entitled to exercise any and all rights and remedies available to Lender under this Agreement, the Mortgages, the Loan Documents, at law, and in equity.
16. Limitation of Liability of Servicer . Servicer shall not be responsible or liable in any manner whatsoever for the correctness, genuineness or validity of any document or instrument, or any signature thereon, deposited with or delivered to Servicer pursuant to this Agreement, except for acts or omissions resulting from Servicers gross negligence, intentional misconduct or bad faith.
17. Certification . All statements and reports required hereunder of any Borrower shall be certified by the authorized representative of such Borrower that has primary responsibility for the asset management or financial reporting obligations for the applicable Property as having been prepared in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and to be true, accurate and complete in all material respects. All statements required under this Agreement shall be in addition to any other financial or operating statements required by Lender from any Borrower pursuant to the Mortgages or any other Loan Document.
18. Replacement of Servicer . Lender may, by written notice to Servicer and the Borrowers, appoint a successor servicer to act under this Agreement. Each Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes Lender to make any such appointment that Lender deems reasonably advisable, subject to the terms hereof and the terms of the Loan Documents, and each Borrower hereby irrevocably consents and agrees to any such appointment. Neither the resignation nor the removal of any Servicer hereunder shall release, discharge or satisfy any of the Borrowers obligations under this Agreement.
19. Changes, Waivers, Etc. Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be changed, waived, released, discharged, withdrawn, revoked or terminated orally, or by any action or inaction. In order to be effective and enforceable, any such change, waiver, release, discharge, withdrawal, revocation or termination must be evidenced by a written document or instrument signed by the party against which enforcement of such change, waiver, release, discharge, withdrawal, revocation or termination is sought, and then shall be effective and enforceable only to the extent specifically provided in such document or instrument.
20. Severability . All rights and remedies provided in this Agreement may be exercised only to the extent that the exercise thereof does not violate any applicable law and are intended to be limited to the extent necessary to avoid rendering this Agreement invalid, illegal or unenforceable. In the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall in no way be affected, prejudiced or disturbed thereby.

(c) If Lender (i) has knowledge of any pending or threatened Environmental Claim against Indemnitor or any Property, (ii) has reason to believe that the Indemnitor or any Property is in violation of any Environmental Law or (iii) receives a request for an environmental site assessment report from a regulatory or other governmental entity with jurisdiction over Lender, then, at Lenders written request, at any time and from time to time, Indemnitor will provide to Lender an environmental site assessment report concerning such Property, prepared by an environmental consulting firm satisfactory to Lender, in its sole discretion, indicating the presence or absence of Hazardous Substances and the potential cost of any removal or remedial action in connection with any Hazardous Substances on such Property. Any such environmental site assessment report shall be conducted at Indemnitors sole cost and expense. If Indemnitor fails to deliver to Lender any such environmental site assessment report within thirty (30) days after being requested to do so by Lender pursuant to this Section, Lender may obtain such an environmental site assessment itself and Indemnitor hereby grants to Lender and its agents access to each Property and specifically grants to Lender an irrevocable nonexclusive license to undertake such an assessment, and the costs of, and related to, such assessment (together with interest thereon at the Default Rate, as such term is defined in each Note) will be payable by Indemnitor on demand.
Indemnitor shall take all actions necessary or required under the Leases (as such term is defined in each Mortgage) to effect the provisions of this Section 2(d) , provided, however, that Lender shall not unreasonably interfere with the operation of the business of Borrower or any tenant under any Lease (as such term is defined in each Mortgage).
(d) Lender may, at its option, at any time and from time to time, perform, at its sole cost and expense, an environmental site assessment report for each Property, and Indemnitor hereby grants to Lender and its agents access to each Property and specifically grants to Lender an irrevocable non-exclusive license to undertake such an assessment, provided, however, that Lender shall not unreasonably interfere with the operation of the business of Borrower or any tenant under any Lease (as such term is defined in each Mortgage).
(e) Indemnitor will advise Lender in writing, immediately upon learning of any of the following: (i) any pending or threatened Environmental Claim against Indemnitor or any Property; (ii) any condition or occurrence on any Property that (A) results in noncompliance by Indemnitor with any applicable Environmental Law or (B) could reasonably be anticipated to form the basis of an Environmental Claim against Indemnitor or any Property; (iii) any condition or occurrence on any Property that could reasonably be anticipated to cause such Property to be subject to any restrictions on the ownership, occupancy, use or transferability of such Property under any Environmental Law; and (iv) the taking of any removal or remedial action in response to the actual or alleged presence, in any quantity or manner which violates any Environmental Law, of any Hazardous Substances on any Property. Each such notice shall describe in reasonable detail the nature of the claim, investigation, condition, occurrence or removal or remedial action and Indemnitors response thereto. In addition, Indemnitor will provide Lender with copies of all communications to or from Indemnitor and any governmental agency relating to Environmental Laws, all communications to or from Indemnitor and any person relating to Environmental Claims, and such detailed reports of any Environmental Claim as may be requested by Lender.
(f) Lender shall have the right, but not the obligation, to participate in or defend, as a party if it so elects, any Environmental Claim. Without Lenders prior written consent, Indemnitor shall not enter into any settlement, consent or compromise with respect to any Environmental Claim that might impair the value of any Property.
(g) At its sole expense, Indemnitor will conduct any investigation, study, sampling and testing, and undertake any cleanup, removal, remedial or other action necessary to remove and clean up all Hazardous Substances from any Property that must be so removed, cleaned up or remediated in accordance with the requirements of any applicable Environmental Laws or this Agreement, to the reasonable satisfaction of a professional environmental consultant selected by Lender, and in accordance with all such requirements and with orders and directives of all governmental authorities. If all or any portion of any Loan shall be outstanding, Indemnitor may prepay the Loans in full, together with all applicable prepayment penalties, in lieu of complying with the preceding sentence of this Clause (g).
(h) Indemnitor shall comply, or cause the Borrowers to comply with, all of the obligations, covenants, conditions and prohibitions required of each of the Borrowers, as applicable, pursuant to the terms of that certain Environmental Escrow Agreement, dated as of February 28, 2008, among Wu/Lighthouse 100 William L.L.C., as buyer, Baker-Properties Limited Partnership, as seller, Chicago Title Insurance Company, as escrow agent, and such other parties named in Schedule 1 attached thereto (the Environmental Escrow Agreement ).
Section 3. Indemnity .
(a) Indemnitor agrees to defend (retaining such attorneys as are satisfactory to the Indemnitees in their sole reasonable discretion), protect, indemnify and hold harmless each of the Indemnitees and its respective officers, directors, employees, attorneys and agents from and against any and all liabilities, obligations (including removal and remedial actions), losses, damages (including foreseeable and unforeseeable consequential damages and punitive damages), penalties, actions, judgments, suits, claims, costs, expenses and disbursements (including reasonable attorneys and consultants fees and disbursements) of any kind or nature whatsoever that may at any time be incurred by, imposed on or asserted against any of them directly or indirectly based on, or arising or resulting from, or in connection with, (i) the actual or alleged presence of Hazardous Substances on any Property in any quantity or manner which violates Environmental Law, or the removal, handling, transportation, disposal or storage of such Hazardous Substances, (ii) any Environmental Claim with respect to Indemnitor or any Property, (iii) the exercise of any Indemnitees rights under this Agreement or (iv) the failure of any of the Borrowers to comply with the obligations, covenants, conditions and prohibitions required of such Borrowers pursuant to the terms of the Environmental Escrow Agreement (collectively, the Indemnified Matters ), regardless of when such Indemnified Matters arise, but excluding any Indemnified Matter with respect to Hazardous Substances first placed or Released on any Property after the later of (1) the date on which neither Indemnitor nor any of its affiliates holds title to or any other interest in or lien on such Property and on which Indemnitor and its affiliates have surrendered possession and control of such Property to Lender or its designee or assignee (and Lender or its designee has accepted possession and control of such Property) or (2) the payment in full of the Secured Obligations (as defined in each Mortgage). To the extent that this indemnity is unenforceable because it violates any law or public policy, Indemnitor agrees to contribute the maximum portion that it is permitted to contribute under applicable law to the payment and satisfaction of all Indemnified Matters.
(b) Indemnitor agrees to reimburse each Indemnitee for all out of pocket sums actually paid and costs actually incurred by such Indemnitee with respect to any Indemnified Matter within ten (10) days following written demand therefor, with interest thereon at the Default Rate (as defined in each Note) if not paid within such ten (10) day period.
(c) Should any Indemnitee institute any action or proceeding at law or in equity, or in arbitration, to enforce any provision of this Agreement (including an action for declaratory relief or for damages by reason of any alleged breach of any provision of this Agreement) or otherwise in connection with this Agreement or any provision hereof, it shall be entitled to recover from Indemnitor all reasonable attorneys fees and disbursements incurred by such Indemnitee in connection therewith, if it is the prevailing party in such action or proceeding.
Section 4. Events of Default . The occurrence of any of the following specified events shall constitute a default by Indemnitor (each an Event of Default ):
(a) if any of the representations and warranties contained in Section 1 shall prove to be untrue in any respect; or
(b) if Indemnitor fails to perform any of its obligations under this Agreement within (i) ten (10) days, with respect to all monetary obligations or (ii) thirty (30) days, with respect to all non-monetary obligations following notice thereof from Lender; (A) provided that if such nonperformance of such non-monetary obligation is incapable of cure within such 30-day period, no Event of Default shall occur hereunder if Indemnitor has commenced a program to perform such non-monetary obligation, which program is satisfactory to Lender in its sole and absolute discretion, and is in accordance with applicable law, and Indemnitor is diligently pursuing such program to completion; and (B) provided further , that if a shorter cure period or notice requirement for any particular failure to perform is provided for by applicable law or under this Agreement, such specific provision shall control.
In any such event, and at any time thereafter, if an Event of Default exists, Lender may do, or cause to be done, whatever is necessary, in Lenders sole and absolute judgment, to cause each Property to comply with applicable Environmental Laws, and the cost of any such action (together with interest thereon at the Default Rate, as such term is defined in each Note) shall become immediately due and payable by Indemnitor, without notice. Indemnitor shall, and does hereby, grant to Lender and its agents access to each Property and hereby specifically grants to Lender an irrevocable, non-exclusive license to do whatever is necessary, in Lenders sole and absolute judgment, to cause each Property to comply with all applicable Environmental Laws, including, without limitation, the right to enter each Property and remove therefrom any Hazardous Substances. Indemnitor shall take all actions necessary or required under the Leases to effect such right of Lender to have such access to each Property.
Section 5. Recourse Obligations .
(a) Indemnitor agrees that, notwithstanding any term or provision contained in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents to the contrary, the obligations of Indemnitor as set forth in this Agreement shall be exceptions to any non-recourse or exculpatory provision relating to the Loans, or any of them, and Indemnitor shall be fully liable for the performance of its obligations under this Agreement, and such liability shall not be limited to the original principal amount of the Loans, or any of them.
(b) The liability of Indemnitor under this Agreement shall in no way be limited to or impaired by any amendment or modification of any of the provisions of the Loan Documents, unless such amendment or modification expressly refers to a specific provision of this Agreement. In addition, the liability of Indemnitor under this Agreement shall in no way be limited or impaired by the following: (i) any extensions of time for performance required by any of the Loan Documents; (ii) any sale, assignment or foreclosure of any of the Notes or any sale or transfer of all or any part of any Property; (iii) any exculpatory provision in any of the Loan Documents limiting any Indemnitees recourse to property encumbered by the Mortgages or to any other security, or limiting the Indemnitees rights to a deficiency judgment against Indemnitor; (iv) the accuracy or inaccuracy of the representations and warranties made by Indemnitor under any of the Loan Documents; (v) the release of Indemnitor or any other person from performance or observance of any of the agreements, covenants, terms or conditions contained in any of the Loan Documents (other than this Agreement) by operation of law, any Indemnitees voluntary act, or otherwise; (vi) the release or substitution, in whole or in part, of any security for any of the Notes; or (vii) Lenders failure to record any Mortgage or file any Financing Statements or other documents required to perfect Lenders lien on any Property (or Lenders improper recording or filing of any of the foregoing) or to otherwise perfect, protect, secure or insure any security interest or lien given as security for any of the Notes; and, in any such case, whether with or without notice to Indemnitor and with or without consideration.
Section 6. Independent Obligations . This Agreement is intended to create obligations that are separate and independent of Indemnitors obligations under each Note, each Mortgage and other Loan Documents. Indemnitors obligations hereunder are, however, expressly secured by any Mortgage and the other Loan Documents.
Section 7. Survival .
(a) The representations, warranties, covenants and indemnities set forth in this Agreement shall survive the repayment of the Loan, the release of the lien of any Mortgage, any foreclosure of any Mortgage or the delivery of a deed or assignment in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise, and the transfer of any interest in and to any Property; provided, however , that this Subsection (a) shall not apply to any Indemnified Matter with respect to Hazardous Substances first placed or released on any Property during and as a result of management of such Property by Lender or Lenders agents, subcontractors or contractors following a foreclosure of the mortgage or deed in lieu of foreclosure of the applicable Mortgage.
(b) This Agreement shall be binding on, and inure to the benefit of, Indemnitor, the Indemnitees and their respective successors and assigns. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of each assignee or holder of each Note and each of such assignees or holders officers, directors, employees, agents and affiliates. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Indemnitor, without, in each instance, the prior written consent of Lender, may not assign, transfer or set over, in whole or in part, all or any part of its benefits, rights, duties and obligations hereunder.

Indemnitor expressly waives and relinquishes all present or future rights, remedies, or circumstances which might constitute a legal or equitable discharge of Indemnitor or which might otherwise impair the validity or enforceability of this Agreement. Indemnitor hereby agrees to postpone the exercise of any and all rights of subrogation to the rights of any Indemnitee against Indemnitor hereunder and any rights of subrogation to any collateral securing each Loan, until all obligations of Indemnitor to the Indemnitees hereunder have been performed in full and all amounts of principal, interest and other sums evidenced or secured by the Loan Documents (including any default interest owed and payable thereon) shall have been paid in full.
(c) Any party liable upon or, in respect of, this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or any other document governing, evidencing and securing each Loan and Guarantors obligations under the Guaranty may be released without affecting the liability of any party not so released.
(d) No failure or delay on the part of any of the Indemnitees in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Loan Document and no course of dealing between Indemnitor and the Indemnitees (or any of them) shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Loan Document preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege hereunder or thereunder. The rights, powers and remedies herein or in any other Loan Document expressly provided are cumulative with, and not exclusive of, any rights, powers or remedies which the Indemnitees or any of them would otherwise have. No notice to or demand on Indemnitor in any case shall, ipso facto , entitle Indemnitor to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of the rights of the Indemnitees to any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand where notice or demand is not otherwise required.
(e) All notices hereunder shall be in writing and shall be delivered to each Borrower and Lender in accordance with the provisions of each Mortgage, and to Guarantor in accordance with the terms of the Guaranty.
(f) Neither this Agreement nor any term hereof may be changed, waived, discharged or terminated unless such change, waiver, discharge or termination is in writing and signed by each of the parties hereto.

THIS PROVISION IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR LENDER AND INDEMNITOR TO ENTER INTO THE LOAN TRANSACTION EVIDENCED BY THE NOTES.
(h) This Agreement and the rights and obligations of the parties hereunder shall be construed in accordance with and be governed by the law of the State of New York, without reference to conflicts of law principles.
(i) All pronouns and any variations of pronouns herein shall be deemed to refer to the masculine, feminine, or neuter, singular or plural, as the identity of the parties may require. Whenever the terms herein are singular, the same shall be deemed to mean the plural, as the identity of the parties or the context requires and vice versa.
(j) This Agreement may be executed in multiple counterparts, each of which shall constitute a duplicate original, but all of which, together, shall constitute one and the same instrument.
(k) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents (including, without limitation, any reference to the continuance of an Event of Default), Lender shall in no event or under any circumstance be obligated or required to accept a cure by Borrower or by any other Person of an Event of Default unless Lender agrees to do so in the exercise of its sole and absolute discretion, it being agreed that once an Event of Default has occurred and so long as Lender has not determined to accept a cure of such Event of Default in writing, Lender shall be absolutely and unconditionally entitled to pursue all rights and remedies available to it under the Loan Documents, at law or in equity or otherwise.

Guarantor is an indirect owner of each Borrower. Accordingly, Guarantor acknowledges that Guarantor will receive material direct and indirect benefit from Lender making the Loans to the Borrowers and consenting to the Assumption and Modification pursuant to the Assumption Agreements.
3. Guaranty. Guarantor hereby guarantees, and becomes a surety, absolutely, primarily, unconditionally, irrevocably and jointly and severally for the full and prompt payment and performance of all obligations of Borrower under the exceptions to the non-recourse provisions described in Section 18 of each Note and Section 9.21 of each Mortgage (the Obligations ). The liability of Guarantor with respect to the Obligations shall be joint and several, primary, direct and immediate, and not conditional or contingent upon pursuit by Lender of any remedies it may have against any Borrower or any other Person, whether pursuant to the Notes, the Mortgages or any other Loan Document in connection therewith or any other document or agreement. Guarantor and Lender each acknowledge that this Guaranty is a guarantee of payment and not just of collection in respect of the Obligations that may accrue to Lender from Guarantor. The liability of Guarantor under this Guaranty shall continue after any assignment or transfer of the interests of Lender under this Guaranty made in conjunction with an assignment of any of the Loans.
4. Guaranty is Independent and Absolute . The obligations of Guarantor hereunder are independent of the obligations of Borrower and of any other person who may become liable with respect to the Obligations. Guarantor is jointly and severally liable with the Borrowers and with any other guarantor for the full and timely payment and performance of all of the Obligations. Guarantor expressly agrees that a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against Guarantor or any other guarantor, whether or not any action is brought against any Borrower, any other guarantor or any other Person for any Obligations guaranteed hereby and whether or not Borrower, any other guarantor or any other Persons are joined in any action against Guarantor. Guarantor further agrees that Lender shall have no obligation to proceed against any security for the Obligations prior to enforcing this Guaranty against Guarantor, and that Lender may pursue or omit to pursue any and all rights and remedies Lender has against any Person or with respect to any security in any order or simultaneously or in any other manner. All rights of Lender and all obligations of Guarantor hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional irrespective of (a) any lack of validity or enforceability of the Notes, the Mortgages, or any other Loan Document and (b) any other circumstances which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, any Borrower in respect of the Obligations.
5. Authorizations to Lender . Guarantor authorizes Lender, without notice or demand and without affecting Guarantors liability hereunder, from time to time (a) to renew,
extend, accelerate or otherwise change the time for payment of, change, amend, alter, cancel, compromise or otherwise modify the terms of any of the Notes, including increasing the rate or rates of interest thereunder agreed to by the applicable Borrower, and to grant any indulgences, forbearances, or extensions of time, (b) to renew, extend, change, amend, alter, cancel, compromise or otherwise modify any of the terms, covenants, conditions or provisions of any of the other Loan Documents or any of the Obligations, (c) to apply any security and direct the order or manner of sale thereof as Lender, in Lenders sole discretion, may determine, (d) to proceed against any Borrower, Guarantor or any other guarantor with respect to any or all of the Obligations without first foreclosing against any security therefor, (e) to exchange, release, surrender, impair or otherwise deal in any manner with, or waive, release or subordinate any security interest in, any security for the Obligations, (f) to release or substitute any Borrower any other guarantors, endorsers, or other parties who may be or become liable with respect to the Obligations, without any release being deemed made of Guarantor or any other such person and (g) to accept a conveyance or transfer to Lender of all or any part of any security in partial satisfaction of the Obligations, or any of them, without releasing Borrowers (collectively, or any of them, individually), Guarantor, or any other guarantor, endorser or other party who may be or become liable with respect to the Obligations, from any liability for the balance of the Obligations.
6. Application of Payments Received by Lender . Any sums of money Lender receives from or for the account of any Borrower may be applied by Lender to reduce any of the Obligations or any other liability of any Borrower to Lender, as Lender, in Lenders sole discretion, deems appropriate.
