All payment obligations of Borrower are hereinafter sometimes collectively referred to as the “Indebtedness” and all other obligations of Borrower are hereinafter sometimes collectively referred to as the “Obligations”; and
C. The Schedule of Defined Terms appearing immediately before this page is incorporated into this Mortgage by reference with the same force and effect as if contained in the body hereof.

NOW, THEREFORE, TO SECURE TO LENDER the repayment of the Indebtedness and the performance of the Obligations, Borrower has mortgaged, given, granted, bargained, sold, alienated, enfeoffed, transferred, conveyed, confirmed, warranted, pledged, assigned, hypothecated and granted and by these presents does hereby irrevocably mortgage, give, grant, bargain, sell, alien, enfeoff, transfer, convey, confirm, warrant, pledge, assign, hypothecate and grant a security interest in and to Lender, with power of sale, the following described property and all proceeds thereof (which property is hereinafter sometimes collectively referred to as the “Property”):

D. All agreements affecting the use, enjoyment or occupancy of the Land and/or Improvements now or hereafter entered into (the “Leases”), including any and all guaranties of such Leases, and the immediate and continuing right to collect all rents, income, receipts, royalties, profits, issues, service reimbursements, fees, accounts receivables, revenues and prepayments of any of the same from or related to the Land and/or Improvements from time to time accruing under the Leases and/or the operation of the Land and/or Improvements (the “Rents”), reserving to Borrower, however, so long as no “Event of Default” (hereinafter defined) has occurred hereunder, a revocable license to receive and apply the Rents in accordance with the terms and conditions of Paragraph 13 of this Mortgage;
E. The Personal Property;
F. All awards or payments, including interest thereon, which may heretofore and hereafter be made with respect to the Land and the Improvements, whether from the exercise of the right of eminent domain or condemnation (including but not limited to any transfer made in lieu of or in anticipation of the exercise of said rights), or for a change of grade, or for any other injury to or decrease in the value of the Land and Improvements;
G. All proceeds of and any unearned premiums on any insurance policies covering the Property, including, without limitation, the right to receive and apply the proceeds of any insurance, judgments, or settlements made in lieu thereof, for damage to the Property;

J. All property management agreements and tenants in common agreements relating to the Property.
AND without limiting any of the other provisions of this Mortgage, to the extent permitted by applicable law, Borrower expressly grants to Lender, as a secured party, a security interest in the portion of the Property that is or may be subject to the provisions of the Uniform Commercial Code that are applicable to secured transactions; it being understood and agreed that the Improvements and Fixtures are part and parcel of the Land (the Land, the Improvements and the Fixtures are collectively referred to as the “Real Property”) appropriated to the use thereof and, whether affixed or annexed to the Real Property or not, shall for the purposes of this Mortgage be deemed conclusively to be real estate and mortgaged hereby.
TO HAVE AND TO HOLD the Property and all parts thereof, together with the rents, issues, profits and proceeds thereof, unto Lender and to the use, benefit and advantage of Lender, forever, subject, however, to the terms, covenants, and conditions herein.
Borrower covenants and agrees with Lender as follows:
1. Payment of Indebtedness; Performance of Obligations. Borrower shall promptly pay when due the Indebtedness and shall promptly perform all Obligations.
2. Taxes and Other Obligations. Borrower shall pay, when due, and before any interest, collection fees or penalties shall accrue, all taxes, assessments, fines, impositions and other charges and obligations, including charges and obligations for any present or future repairs or improvements made on the Property, or for any other goods or services or utilities furnished to the Property, which may become a lien on or charge against the Property prior to this Mortgage, subject, however, to Borrower’s right to contest such lien or charge upon the posting of security reasonably satisfactory to Lender so long as such contest stays the enforcement or collection of such lien or charge. Should Borrower fail to make such payments, Lender may, at its option and at the expense of Borrower, pay the amounts due for the account of Borrower. Upon the request of Lender, Borrower shall immediately furnish to Lender all notices of amounts due and receipts evidencing payment. Borrower shall promptly notify Lender of any lien on all or any part of the Property and shall promptly discharge any unpermitted lien or encumbrance.
3. Reserves for Taxes/Ground Rents/Insurance/Replacement Reserve/Tenant Improvements and Leasing Reserve.
(a) Borrower shall pay to Lender, at the time of and in addition to the monthly installments of principal and/or interest due under the Note, a sum equal to 1/12 of the amount estimated by Lender from time to time to be sufficient to enable Lender to pay at least 30 days before they become due and payable, all taxes, assessments and other similar charges levied against the Property (collectively, the “Taxes”), and all ground rents, if applicable. So long as no Event of Default exists hereunder, Lender shall apply the sums so paid by Borrower to pay such tax items and ground rents, if applicable. In making any such payments, Lender may do so according to any xxxx, statement or estimate obtained by Lender in good faith, without inquiry into the accuracy of such xxxx, statement or estimate or into the validity thereof. These sums may be commingled with the general funds of Lender, and no interest shall be payable thereon nor shall these sums constitute trust funds. If such amount on deposit with Lender is insufficient to fully pay such tax items and ground rents, if applicable, Borrower shall, within 10 days following notice at any time from Lender, deposit such additional sum as may be required for the full payment of such tax items and ground rents, if applicable. Borrower hereby represents and warrants that Lender has a security interest in such funds and Borrower shall execute any other documents and take any other actions necessary to provide Lender with a perfected security interest. Upon the Maturity Date, the moneys then remaining on deposit with Lender or its agent shall, at Lender’s option, be applied against the Indebtedness. The obligation of Borrower to pay such tax items and ground rents is not affected or modified by the provisions of this paragraph.
(b) Borrower shall pay to Lender, at the time of and in addition to the monthly installments of principal and/or interest due under the Note, a sum equal to 1/12 of the amount estimated by Lender from time to time to be sufficient to enable Lender to pay at least 30 days before they become due and payable, all insurance premiums due for the renewal, on an annual basis, of the coverage afforded by the insurance policies required hereunder upon the expiration thereof. So long as no Event of Default exists hereunder, Lender shall apply the sums so paid by Borrower to pay such insurance premiums. In making any such payment, Lender may do so according to any xxxx, statement or estimate obtained by Lender in good faith, without inquiry into the accuracy of such xxxx, statement or estimate or into the validity thereof. These sums may be commingled with the general funds of Lender, and no interest shall be payable thereon nor shall these sums constitute trust funds. If such amount on deposit with Lender is insufficient to fully pay such insurance premiums, Borrower shall, within 10 days following notice at any time from Lender, deposit such additional sum as may be required for the full payment of such insurance premiums. Borrower hereby represents and warrants that Lender has a security interest in such funds and Borrower shall execute any other documents and take any other actions necessary to provide Lender with a perfected security interest. Upon the Maturity Date, the moneys then remaining on deposit with Lender or its agent shall, at Lender’s option, be applied against the Indebtedness. The obligation of Borrower to pay such insurance premiums is not affected or modified by the provisions of this paragraph.
(c) At the time of and in addition to the monthly installments of principal and/or interest due under the Note, Borrower shall pay to Lender the Replacement Reserve Monthly Payment (such payments shall be referred to as the “Replacement Reserve”). The Replacement Reserve may be commingled with the general funds of Lender and such Replacement Reserve shall not constitute trust funds. The funds contained in the Replacement Reserve shall bear interest for the benefit of Borrower at the rate of interest which is the lower of (i) the amount paid from time to time by Lender on commercial money market accounts; or (ii) the return on permitted investments to be made with the funds by any third party servicer, rating agency or loan purchaser (“Reserve Interest Rate”), and all such interest shall be added to and become part of the Replacement Reserve, provided Lender shall make no representation or warranty as to the actual rate of interest. The funds contained in the Replacement Reserve shall be utilized by Borrower solely for exterior, structural, HVAC and mechanical improvements that are customarily accounted for as capital expenses (“Capital Expenses”), and other capital improvements approved in advance by Lender. Lender shall make disbursements from the Replacement Reserve for the actual cost of such items and approved capital improvements upon Borrower’s providing Lender with receipts, invoices, lien waivers, photographs and other documentation deemed necessary by Lender to insure that the work and/or materials related to the requested disbursement have been completed and/or provided, with minimum draws of $10,000.00, which shall occur no more frequently than once per month. Upon the Maturity Date, the moneys then remaining on deposit with Lender or its agent shall, at Lender’s option, be applied against the Indebtedness. Borrower hereby represents and warrants that Lender has a security interest in the Replacement Reserve and Borrower shall execute any other documents and take any other actions necessary to provide Lender with a perfected security interest in the Replacement Reserve.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, without waiving any of Borrower’s repair and maintenance obligations under the Loan Documents, Lender agrees to defer its right under this Mortgage to require monthly deposits of the Replacement Reserve Monthly Payment into the Replacement Reserve until March 1, 2010, as long as there exists no event of default (or event with which notice or lapse of time or both could constitute an event of default) under the Loan Documents. If Lender determines that such condition is not satisfied, then in addition to Lender’s other remedies under applicable law and under the Loan Documents, Lender may require that Borrower immediately commence making monthly deposits of the Replacement Reserve Monthly Payments in an amount determined by Lender for such purpose into the Replacement Reserve.
(d) On the date hereof Borrower shall deposit with Lender the sum of $ and at the time of and in addition to the monthly installments of principal and/or interest due under the Note, Borrower shall pay to Lender monthly deposits in the amount of the TI and Leasing Reserve Monthly Payment for approved tenant improvements and leasing commissions (such payments shall be referred to as the “TI and Leasing Reserve”) until such time as the balance in the TI and Leasing Reserve equals $ (the “Minimum TI and Leasing Reserve Balance”). Thereafter, if at any time there is a draw causing the TI and Leasing Reserve to contain less than the Minimum TI and Leasing Reserve Balance (whether on account of expenditures approved by Lender or its servicer or otherwise), Borrower shall continue to pay Lender for deposit into the TI and Leasing Reserve, the TI and Leasing Reserve Monthly Payment until the balance in the TI and Leasing Reserve again equals the Minimum TI and Leasing Reserve Balance. Whenever the balance in the TI and Leasing Reserve again equals the Minimum TI and Leasing Reserve Balance, Borrower may suspend making monthly payments into the TI and Leasing Reserve. The TI and Leasing Reserve may be commingled with the general funds of Lender and such TI and Leasing Reserve shall not constitute trust funds. [The funds contained in the TI and Leasing Reserve shall bear interest for the benefit of Borrower at the Reserve Interest Rate and all such interest shall be added to and become a part of the TI and Leasing Reserve, provided Lender shall make no representation or warranty as to the actual rate of interest. The funds contained in the TI and Leasing Reserve shall be disbursed to Borrower solely to pay for tenant improvements and leasing commissions due pursuant to leases entered into in accordance with the requirements of Paragraph 7 hereof or otherwise approved by Lender, but only when the tenants under such leases are in occupancy, open for business, and paying full contractual rent without any right of offset or rent abatement. Lender shall make disbursements from the TI and Leasing Reserve for the actual cost of such approved tenant improvements and leasing commissions upon Borrower’s providing Lender with receipts, invoices, lien waivers, photographs and other documentation deemed necessary by Lender to insure that the work and/or materials related to the requested disbursement have been completed and/or provided, with minimum draws of $10,000.00, which shall occur no more frequently than once per month. Upon the Maturity Date, the moneys then remaining on deposit with Lender or its agent shall, at Lender’s option, be applied against the Indebtedness. Borrower hereby grants Lender a first priority security interest in the TI and Leasing Reserve and shall execute any other documents and take any other actions necessary to provide Lender with such a perfected security interest in the TI and Leasing Reserve.
In the event that (i) the Loan is not fully transferred to and assumed by NNN Healthcare/Office REIT Holdings, L.P., a Delaware Limited Partnership (the “REIT”) or to a newly formed entity that is owned and controlled by the REIT, or (ii) the membership interests in Borrower are not transferred to the REIT or to a newly formed entity that is owned and controlled by the REIT, on or before June 5, 2007, the following conditions must be satisfied; (i) the Required Balance will immediately increase to $ , (ii) Borrower will within three (3) Business Days make a payment of $500,000.00 into the TI and Leasing Reserve and (iii) Borrower will within ten (10) Business Days fully satisfy and pay off any and all additional debt on the Property and cause to be released any and all liens associated with the additional debt.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, without waiving any of Borrower’s leasing restrictions and obligations under the Loan Documents, Lender agrees to defer its right under this Mortgage to require monthly deposits of the TI and Leasing Reserve Monthly Payment into the TI and Leasing Reserve until the Release Requirements are met as long as there exists no Event of Default (or event with which notice or lapse of time or both could constitute an Event of Default) under the Loan Documents. Notwithstanding the foregoing, without waiving any of Borrower’s repair and maintenance obligations under the Loan Documents, Lender agrees to defer its right under this Mortgage to require monthly deposits of the Pfizer Reserve Monthly Payment into the TI and Leasing Reserve for a period of sixteen (16) months from the date hereof as long as there exists no Event of Default (or event with which notice or lapse of time or both could constitute an Event of Default) under the Loan Documents.
(e) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Lender may apply any amounts then held in any of the Reserves described above to the payment of the Indebtedness in such order as Lender may elect, in its sole and absolute discretion.
(f) On the date hereof, Borrower shall have deposited with Lender the sum of $ .00 (“Security Reserve”). The Security Reserve shall constitute additional security for the Loan. The Security Reserve may be commingled with the general funds of Lender and shall not constitute trust funds. No interest shall be paid to Borrower on the Security Reserve. No disbursement from the Security Reserve shall be made to the Borrower. Upon the Maturity Date, the moneys then remaining on deposit with Lender or its agent shall, at Lender’s option, be applied against the Indebtedness. Borrower hereby grants Lender a security interest in the Security Reserve and shall execute any other documents and take any other actions necessary to provide Lender with a perfected security interest in the Security Reserve.
4. Use of Property. Unless required by applicable law, Borrower shall not permit changes in the use of any part of the Property from the use existing at the time this Mortgage was executed, which use Borrower represents and warrants is limited to the Permitted Use and related uses. Borrower shall not initiate or acquiesce in a change in the zoning classification of the Property without Lender’s prior written consent.
5. Insurance and Condemnation. Borrower shall obtain and maintain, or cause to be maintained, insurance for Borrower and the Property providing at least the following coverages:
(a) comprehensive all risk insurance (“Special Form”) including, but not limited to, loss caused by any type of windstorm or hail on the Improvements and the Personal Property, (i) in an amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the “Full Replacement Cost,” which for purposes of this Mortgage shall mean actual replacement value (exclusive of costs of excavations, foundations, underground utilities and footings) with a waiver of depreciation, but the amount shall in no event be less than the outstanding principal balance of the Loan; (ii) containing an agreed amount endorsement with respect to the Improvements and Personal Property waiving all co-insurance provisions or to be written on a no co-insurance form; (iii) providing for no deductible in excess of Ten Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($10,000.00) for all such insurance coverage excluding windstorm and earthquake, and (iv) if any of the Improvements or the use of the Property shall at any time constitute legal non-conforming structures or uses, coverage for loss due to operation of law in an amount equal to the Full Replacement Cost, coverage for demolition costs and coverage for increased costs of construction. In addition, Borrower shall obtain: (A) if any portion of the Improvements is currently or at any time in the future located in a federally designated “special flood hazard area”, flood hazard insurance in an amount equal to the lesser of (1) the outstanding principal balance of the Note or (2) the maximum amount of such insurance available under the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968, the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973 or the National Flood Insurance Reform Act of 1994, as each may be amended or such greater amount as Lender shall require and (B) earthquake insurance in amounts and in form and substance satisfactory to Lender in the event the Property is located in an area with a high degree of seismic activity;
(b) business income insurance (i) with loss payable to Lender; (ii) covering all risks required to be covered by the insurance provided for in subparagraph (a) above; (iii) in an amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the projected gross revenues from the operation of the Property (as reduced to reflect expenses not incurred during a period of restoration or repair) for a period of at least twelve (12) months after the date of the loss or damage by fire or other casualty; and (iv) containing an extended period of indemnity endorsement which provides that after the physical loss to the Improvements and Personal Property has been repaired, the continued loss of income will be insured until such income either returns to the same level it was at prior to the loss, or the expiration of six (6) months from the date that the Property is repaired or replaced and operations are resumed, whichever first occurs, and notwithstanding that the policy may expire prior to the end of such period. The amount of such business income insurance shall be determined prior to the date hereof and at least once each year thereafter based on Borrower’s reasonable estimate of the gross revenues from the Property for the succeeding twelve (12) month period. All proceeds payable to Lender pursuant to this subsection shall be held by Lender and shall be applied to the obligations secured by the Loan Documents from time to time due and payable hereunder and under the Note; provided, however, that nothing herein contained shall be deemed to relieve Borrower of its obligations to pay the obligations secured by the Loan Documents on the respective dates of payment provided for in this Mortgage and the other Loan Documents except to the extent such amounts are actually paid out of the proceeds of such business income insurance;
(c) at all times during which structural construction, repairs or alterations are being made with respect to the Improvements, and only if the Property coverage form does not otherwise apply, (i) owner’s contingent or protective liability insurance, otherwise known as Owner Contractor’s Protective Liability, covering claims not covered by or under the terms or provisions of the above mentioned commercial general liability insurance policy and (ii) the insurance provided for in subparagraph (a) above written in a so-called builder’s risk completed value form (A) on a non-reporting basis, (B) against all risks insured against pursuant to subparagraph (a) above, (C) including permission to occupy the Property and (D) with an agreed amount endorsement waiving co-insurance provisions;
(d) comprehensive boiler and machinery insurance, if steam boilers or other pressure-fixed vessels are in operation, in amounts as shall be reasonably required by Lender on terms consistent with the commercial property insurance policy required under subparagraph (a) above;
(e) commercial general liability insurance against claims for personal injury, bodily injury, death or property damage occurring upon, in or about the Property, such insurance (i) to be on the so-called “occurrence” form with a combined limit of not less than Two Million and 00/100 Dollars ($2,000,000.00) in the aggregate and One Million and 00/100 Dollars ($1,000,000.00) per occurrence; (ii) to continue at not less than the aforesaid limit until required to be changed by Lender in writing by reason of changed economic conditions making such protection inadequate and (iii) to cover at least the following hazards: (A) premises and operations; (B) products and completed operations on an “if any” basis; (C) independent contractors; (D) blanket contractual liability for all written contracts and (E) contractual liability covering the indemnities contained in Paragraph 29 of this Mortgage to the extent the same is available;
(f) automobile liability coverage for all owned and non-owned vehicles, including rented and leased vehicles containing minimum limits per occurrence of One Million Dollars and 00/100 Dollars ($1,000,000.00);
(g) worker’s compensation and employee’s liability subject to the worker’s compensation laws of the applicable state;
(h) umbrella and excess liability insurance in an amount not less than Three Million and 00/100 Dollars ($3,000,000.00) per occurrence on terms consistent with the commercial general liability insurance policy required under subparagraph (e) above, including, but not limited to, supplemental coverage for employer liability and automobile liability, which umbrella liability coverage shall apply in excess of the automobile liability coverage in subparagraph (f) above;
(i) the insurance required under this Paragraph 5 above shall cover perils of terrorism and acts of terrorism and Borrower shall maintain insurance for loss resulting from perils and acts of terrorism on terms (including amounts) consistent with those required under Paragraph 5 above at all times during the term of the Loan; and
(j) upon sixty (60) days written notice, such other reasonable insurance, including, but not limited to, sinkhole or land subsidence insurance, if available at commercially reasonable costs, and in such reasonable amounts as Lender from time to time may reasonably request against such other insurable hazards which at the time are commonly insured against for property similar to the Property located in or around the region in which the Property is located.
All insurance provided for in this Paragraph 5, shall be obtained under valid and enforceable policies (collectively, the “Policies” or in the singular, the “Policy”), and shall be subject to the approval of Lender as to insurance companies, amounts, deductibles, loss payees and insureds. The Policies shall be issued by financially sound and responsible insurance companies authorized to do business in the State and having a claims paying ability rating of “AA” or better (and the equivalent thereof) by at least two (2) of the rating agencies rating the Securities (one (1) of which shall be S&P if they are rating the Securities and one (1) of which will be Moody’s if they are rating the Securities), or if only one (1) rating agency is rating the Securities, then only by such rating agency. The Policies described in this Paragraph 5 (other than those strictly limited to liability protection) shall designate Lender as loss payee. Not less than ten (10) days prior to the expiration dates of the Policies theretofore furnished to Lender, certificates of insurance evidencing the Policies accompanied by evidence satisfactory to Lender of payment of the premiums due thereunder (the “Insurance Premiums”), shall be delivered by Borrower to Lender. Any blanket insurance Policy shall specifically allocate to the Property the amount of coverage from time to time required hereunder and shall otherwise provide the same protection as would a separate Policy insuring only the Property in compliance with the provisions of this Paragraph 5. All Policies provided for or contemplated by this Paragraph 5, except for the Policy referenced in Paragraph 5(g) of this Mortgage, shall name Borrower as the insured and Lender as the additional insured, as its interests may appear, and in the case of property damage, boiler and machinery, flood and earthquake insurance, shall contain a so-called New York standard non-contributing mortgagee clause in favor of Lender providing that the loss thereunder shall be payable to Lender. All Policies shall contain clauses or endorsements to the effect that: (1) no act or negligence of Borrower, or anyone acting for Borrower, or of any tenant or other occupant, or failure to comply with the provisions of any Policy, which might otherwise result in a forfeiture of the insurance or any part thereof, shall in any way affect the validity or enforceability of the insurance insofar as Lender is concerned; (2) the Policy shall not be materially changed (other than to increase the coverage provided thereby) or canceled without at least ten (10) days written notice to Lender and any other party named therein as an additional insured; (3) the issuers thereof shall give written notice to Lender if the Policy has not been renewed thirty (30) days prior to its expiration; and (4) Lender shall not be liable for any Insurance Premiums thereon or subject to any assessments thereunder.
Borrower shall keep the Improvements insured, and shall maintain during the entire term of this Mortgage, comprehensive general liability coverage and such other coverages requested by Lender, by carrier(s), in amounts and in form at all times satisfactory to Lender, which carrier(s), amounts and form shall not be changed without the prior written consent of Lender. All such policies of insurance shall be issued by insurers qualified under the laws of the state in which the Land is located, duly authorized and licensed to transact business in such state and reflecting the Required Rating. Borrower shall maintain all coverages on the Property as are required by Lender at the closing of the Loan, and all other coverages as may be deemed necessary by Lender from time to time during the term of the Loan. Any failure by Lender to insist on full compliance with all of the above insurance requirements at closing does not constitute a waiver of Lender’s right to subsequently require full compliance with these requirements. All policies required hereunder shall be indicated by evidence of insurance on the Accord 28 form of certificate (as such form may be updated and renamed from time to time), naming Lender as loss payee and as additional insured. Unless Borrower provides Lender with evidence of the insurance coverage required by this Mortgage, Lender may purchase insurance at Borrower’s expense to protect Lender’s interests in the Property and to maintain the insurance required by this Mortgage. This insurance may, but need not, protect Borrower’s interests. The coverage purchased by Lender may not pay any claim made by Borrower or any claim that is made against Borrower in connection with the Property or any required insurance policy. Borrower may later cancel any insurance purchased by Lender, but only after providing Lender with evidence that Borrower has obtained insurance as required by this Mortgage. If Lender purchases insurance for the Property or insurance otherwise required by this Mortgage, Borrower will be responsible for the costs of that insurance, including interest and other charges imposed by Lender in connection with the placement of the insurance, until the effective date of the cancellation or expiration of the insurance. The costs of the insurance may be added to the Indebtedness. The costs of the insurance may be more than the cost of insurance Borrower is able to obtain on its own.
In case of loss or damage by fire or other casualty, Borrower shall give immediate written notice thereof to the insurance carrier(s) and to Lender. Lender is authorized and empowered to make or file proofs of loss or damage (in each case only so long as such loss or damage is equal to or greater than $120,000.00 and to settle and adjust any claim under insurance policies which insure against such risks, or to direct Borrower, in writing, to agree with the insurance carrier(s) on the amount to be paid in regard to such loss. The proceeds of any insurance claim are hereby assigned to and shall be paid to Lender as further security for the payment of the Indebtedness and performance of the Obligations and applied as set forth herein.
Borrower shall immediately notify Lender of any action or proceeding relating to any condemnation or other taking, whether direct or indirect, of the Property, or part thereof, and Borrower shall appear in and prosecute any such action or proceeding unless otherwise directed by Lender in writing. Borrower authorizes Lender, at Lender’s option, as attorney-in-fact for Borrower, to commence, appear in and prosecute, in Lender’s or Borrower’s name, any action or proceeding relating to any condemnation or other taking of the Property, whether direct or indirect, and to settle or compromise any claim in connection with such condemnation or other taking, provided such claim is for an amount equal to or greater than $120,000.00. The proceeds of any award, payment or claim for damages, direct or consequential, in connection with any condemnation or other taking, whether direct or indirect, of the Property, or part thereof, or for conveyances in lieu of condemnation, are hereby assigned to and shall be paid to Lender as further security for the payment of the Indebtedness and performance of the Obligations and applied as set forth herein.
Provided no Event of Default then exists hereunder, the net insurance proceeds and net proceeds of any condemnation award (in each case after deducting only Lender’s reasonable costs and expenses, if any, in collecting the same) shall be made available for the restoration or repair of the Property if, in Lender’s sole judgment (a) restoration or repair and the continued operation of the Property is economically feasible, as determined by Lender, (b) the value of Lender’s security is not reduced, (c) the loss or condemnation, as applicable, does not occur in the 6-month period preceding the stated Maturity Date and Lender’s independent consultant certifies that the restoration of the Property can be completed at least 90 days prior to the Maturity Date, and (d) Borrower deposits with Lender an amount, in cash, which Lender, in its sole discretion, determines is necessary, in addition to the net insurance proceeds or net proceeds of any condemnation award, as applicable, to pay in full the cost of the restoration or repair, including the cost to carry the Property and make all required payments due under the Loan during the period of restoration or repair. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it shall be a condition precedent to any disbursement of insurance proceeds held by Lender hereunder that Lender shall have approved (x) all plans and specifications for any proposed repair or restoration, (y) the construction schedule and (z) the architect’s and general contractor’s contract for all restoration that exceeds $25,000.00 in the aggregate. Lender may establish other conditions it deems reasonably necessary to assure the work is fully completed in a good and workmanlike manner free of all liens or claims by reason thereof. Borrower’s deposits made pursuant to this paragraph shall be used before the net insurance proceeds or net proceeds of any condemnation award, as applicable, for such restoration or repair. If the net insurance proceeds or net proceeds of any condemnation award, as applicable, are made available for restoration or repair, such work shall be completed by Borrower in an expeditious and diligent fashion, and in compliance with all applicable laws, rules and regulations. At Lender’s option, the net insurance proceeds or net proceeds of any condemnation award, as applicable, shall be disbursed pursuant to a construction escrow acceptable to Lender. If following the final payments for the completion of such restoration or repair there are any net insurance proceeds or net proceeds of any condemnation award, as applicable, remaining, such proceeds shall be paid (i) to Borrower to the extent Borrower was required to make a deposit pursuant to this paragraph, (ii) then to fund any shortfall in the Replacement Reserve, (iii) then to Lender to be applied to the Indebtedness, whether or not due and payable until paid in full, and (iv) then to Borrower. If an Event of Default then exists, or any of the conditions set forth in subparagraphs (a) through (d) of this Paragraph 5 have not been met or satisfied, the net insurance proceeds or net proceeds of any condemnation award, as applicable, shall be applied to the Indebtedness, whether or not due and payable, with any excess paid to Borrower.
6. Preservation and Maintenance of Property. Borrower (a) shall not commit waste or permit impairment or deterioration of the Property; (b) shall not abandon the Property; (c) shall keep the Property in good repair and restore or repair promptly, in a good and workmanlike manner, all or any part of the Property to the equivalent of its original condition, ordinary wear and tear excepted, or such other condition as Lender may approve in writing, upon any damage or loss thereto, if net insurance proceeds are made available to cover in whole or in part the costs of such restoration or repair; (d) shall comply with all laws, ordinances, regulations and requirements of any governmental body, and all requirements of any documents applicable to the Property; (e) shall provide for management of the Property by Borrower or by a property manager satisfactory to Lender pursuant to a contract in form and substance satisfactory to Lender; (f) shall not take any steps whatsoever to convert the Property, or any portion thereof, to a condominium or cooperative form of management; (g) shall not install or permit to be installed on the Property any underground storage tank or above-ground storage tank without the written consent of Lender; and (h) shall give notice in writing to Lender of and, unless otherwise directed in writing by Lender, appear in and defend any action or proceeding purporting to affect the Property, the security granted by the Loan Documents or the rights or powers of Lender. Neither Borrower nor any tenant or other person shall remove, demolish or alter any Improvement or any Fixture, equipment, machinery or appliance in or on the Land and owned or leased by Borrower except when incident to the replacement of Fixtures, equipment, machinery and appliances with items of like kind.
7. Protection of Lender’s Security; Leases. If Borrower fails to pay the Indebtedness or perform the Obligations, or if any action or proceeding is commenced which affects the Property, Lender may make such appearances, disburse such sums and take such action as Lender deems necessary, in its sole discretion, to protect the Property or Lender’s interests herein, including entry upon the Property to make repairs and perform environmental tests and studies. Any amounts disbursed by Lender pursuant to this Paragraph 7 (including attorneys’ costs and expenses), with interest thereon at the “Default Rate” (defined in the Note) from the date of disbursement, shall become additional Indebtedness of Borrower secured by the Loan Documents and shall be due and payable on demand. Nothing contained in this Paragraph 7 shall require Lender to incur any expense or take any action hereunder.
Borrower shall not be authorized to enter into any ground lease of the Property, without Lender’s prior written approval. Borrower shall not, without Lender’s prior written consent, modify, amend, surrender or terminate any Lease, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. All Leases of space in the Property shall be on the form of lease previously approved by Lender with tenants and for a use acceptable to Lender. All Leases of space in the Property executed or renewed after the date hereof must be approved by Lender prior to the execution thereof by Borrower.
Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Borrower may enter into a proposed Lease (including the amendment, renewal or extension of an existing Lease (a “Renewal Lease”) without the prior written consent of Lender, provided such proposed Lease or Renewal Lease (i) provides for rental rates and terms comparable to existing local market rates and terms (taking into account the type and quality of the tenant) as of the date such Lease or Renewal Lease is executed by Borrower (unless, in the case of a Renewal Lease, the rent payable during such renewal, or a formula or other method to compute such rent, is provided for in the original Lease), (ii) is an arms-length transaction with a bona fide, independent third party tenant, (iii) is written on the standard form of lease previously approved by Lender, (iv) is not for premises greater than or ten percent (10%) of the gross leaseable area of the Property, (v) is not for a rental greater than or equal to ten percent (10%) of the total gross rental revenues of the Property; (vi) shall have an initial term of not less than three (3) years or greater than ten (10) years, (vii) is for the same use as the current use of the Property, (viii) shall not contain any options for renewal or expansion by the tenant thereunder at rental rates which are either below comparable market levels or less than the rental rates paid by the tenant during initial lease term; and (ix) shall be to a tenant which is experienced, creditworthy and reputable. If Lender consents to any new Lease of space in the Property or the renewal of any existing Lease of space in the Property, at Lender’s request, Borrower shall cause the tenant thereunder to execute a subordination and attornment agreement in form and substance satisfactory to Lender contemporaneously with the execution of such Lease. Borrower expressly understands that any and all new or proposed leases or Renewal Leases are included in the definition of “Lease” or “Leases” as such terms may be used throughout this Mortgage or any of the other Loan Documents. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Borrower may terminate a Lease without Lender’s request in the ordinary course of business if (a) the related tenant is in default and (b) either (x) such Lease is for less than ten percent (10%) of the then currently occupied and rentable square feet of space at the Property, or (y) Borrower has executed a lease with a replacement tenant for the premises in question. To the extent Lender’s consent is required under this Paragraph 7, and the lease in question is for less than 25% of both the gross leaseable area of the Property and the total gross rental revenues of the Property, Borrower shall submit a request to Lender with the following language prominently displayed at the top and on the cover of any such request in allcaps, boldface, 14 point type or larger: “IMMEDIATE RESPONSE REQUIRED, CONSENT DEEMED GIVEN IF NO RESPONSE WITHIN 10 BUSINESS DAYS.” If no response has been received within 10 Business Days of Lender’s receipt of such request, Borrower shall submit a second request to Lender with the following language prominently displayed at the top and on the cover of any such request in allcaps, boldface, 14 point type or larger: “IMMEDIATE RESPONSE REQUIRED, CONSENT DEEMED GIVEN IF NO RESPONSE WITHIN 5 BUSINESS DAYS.” If no response has been received within 5 Business Days of Lender’s receipt of such second request, Lender’s consent shall be deemed to be given.
If at the time one or more Disclosure Documents (as hereinafter defined) are being prepared for a securitization and if requested by Lender, Borrower shall furnish, or shall cause the applicable tenant to furnish, to Lender financial data and/or financial statements in accordance with Regulation AB (as defined in Item 1101(k) of Regulation AB) for any tenant of any Property if, in connection with a securitization, Lender reasonably expects there to be, with respect to such tenant or group of affiliated tenants, a concentration within all of the mortgage loans included or reasonably expected to be included, as applicable, in such securitization such that such tenant or group of affiliated tenants would constitute a Significant Obligor (as defined in Item 1101(k)); provided, however, that in the event the related lease does not require the related tenant to provide the foregoing information, Borrower shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the applicable tenant to furnish such information, provided however, that Borrower shall be in default hereunder only for failure to use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such tenant to furnish such information.
8. Inspection. Lender and its agents and designees may make or cause to be made reasonable entries upon and inspections of the Property, including for performing any environmental inspections and testing of the Property, and inspections of Borrower’s books, records, and contracts at all reasonable times upon reasonable advance notice, which notice may be given in writing or orally. Borrower shall cooperate with Lender and its agents and designees with respect to all such inspections, including any related to the sale or potential sale of all or any portion of the Loan by Lender and any securitization or potential securitization involving the Loan.
9. Books and Records.

In the event that the Loan has an original principal balance equal to or greater than $20,000,000.00 such annual financial statements shall be audited by an independent certified public accountant. If Lender requires audited GAAP-compliant financial statements of Guarantor, Guarantor will provide such financial statements to Lender within 120 days of Guarantor’s fiscal year-end or within 20 days of the filing of its returns with the Internal Revenue Service. All of the information required by Lender in this paragraph must be in a form acceptable to Lender in its absolute and sole discretion. If Borrower fails to timely furnish Lender with any of the financial information and reports set forth in this paragraph within the required time periods, Lender shall have the right, acting in its sole discretion, to hire a certified public accounting firm acceptable to Lender, to prepare such financial information and reports, on an audited basis. The costs and expenses of such accounting firm shall be paid by Borrower on demand and, to the extent advanced by Lender become, with interest thereon from the date advanced by Lender at the Default Rate, additional Indebtedness of Borrower secured by the Loan Documents. Additionally, if Borrower fails to timely furnish Lender with any of the financial information and reports set forth in this paragraph within the required time periods, Lender shall be entitled to receive a late charge equal to $500.00 for each financial information and/or report not so furnished to Lender (the “Financial Late Charge”). The Financial Late Charge shall be due and payable by Borrower immediately upon receipt by Borrower of an invoice for same from Lender.

Upon every such entering upon or taking of possession, Lender may hold, store, use, operate, manage and control the Property and conduct the business thereof.

(g) enforce Lender’s interest in the Leases and Rents and enter into or upon the Property, either personally or by its agents, nominees or attorneys and dispossess Borrower and its agents and servants therefrom, and thereupon Lender may: (A) use, operate, manage, control, insure, maintain, repair, restore and otherwise deal with all and every part of the Property and conduct the business thereat; (B) complete any construction on the Property in such manner and form as Lender deems advisable; (C) make alterations, additions, renewals, replacements and improvements to or on the Property; (D) exercise all rights and powers of Borrower with respect to the Property, whether in the name of Borrower or otherwise, including, without limitation, the right to make, cancel, enforce or modify Leases, obtain and evict tenants, and demand, xxx for, collect and receive all earnings, revenues, rents, issues, profits and other income of the Property and every part thereof; and (E) apply the receipts from the Property to the payment of the Indebtedness, after deducting therefrom all expenses (including reasonable attorney fees) incurred in connection with the aforesaid operations and all amounts necessary to pay the taxes, assessments, insurance premiums and other charges in connection with the Property, as well as just and reasonable compensation for the services of Lender, its counsel, agents and employees; and/or

Borrower does hereby irrevocably consent to such appointment. Nothing contained in this Mortgage and no actions taken pursuant to this Mortgage shall be construed as constituting Lender a mortgagee in possession. Lender shall have the right, at any time and without limitation, as provided in Minn. §580.03, to advance money to the receiver to pay any part or all of the items which the receiver would otherwise pay if cash were available from the Property; and sums so advanced, with interest at the rate set forth in the Note, shall be secured hereby, or if advanced during the period of redemption shall be part of the sum required to be paid to redeem from sale; and
(j) To foreclose this Mortgage by judicial or non-judicial process as set forth below:
Foreclosure/Power of Sale. Borrower hereby authorizes and fully empowers Lender
to foreclose this Mortgage by judicial proceedings or by non-judicial proceeding, in accordance with the laws of the State of Minnesota, with full power of sale and authority to sell the Property at public auction to the highest bidder for cash, after giving notice or making publication, if required by the laws of the State of Minnesota, and to convey the same to the purchaser in fee simple all in accordance with and in the manner prescribed by the laws of the State of Minnesota, and out of the proceeds arising from the sale and foreclosure to retain the principal and interest due on the Note and the Indebtedness, together with all such sums of money as Lender shall have expended or advanced pursuant to this Mortgage or pursuant to statute, together with interest thereon as herein provided, and all costs and expenses of such foreclosure, which shall be immediately due and payable by Borrower, with interest thereon at the rate of interest specified in the Loan Documents, with the balance, if any, to be paid to the persons entitled thereto by law. Borrower acknowledges that in such event, Borrower shall remain liable for any deficiency to the extent permitted by the laws of the State of Minnesota and the Loan Documents. By conferring this power of sale upon Lender, Borrower, for itself, its successors and assigns, after an opportunity for consultation with its legal counsel, hereby voluntarily, knowingly and intelligently waives all rights under the Constitution and laws of the United States and under the Constitution and laws of the State of Minnesota, both to a hearing on the right to exercise and the exercise of the power of sale, and to notice, except as may be required by any statute of the State of Minnesota.
The foregoing remedies shall be cumulative of any other nonjudicial remedies available to Lender under this Mortgage or the other Loan Documents, at law or in equity. Proceeding with a request or receiving a judgment for legal relief shall not be or be deemed to be an election of remedies or bar any available nonjudicial remedy of Lender.
22. Expenditures and Expenses. Borrower acknowledges and confirms that Lender shall impose certain administrative processing and/or commitment fees in connection with (a) the extension, renewal, modification, amendment and termination of its loans, (b) the release or substitution of collateral therefor, (c) obtaining certain consents, waivers and approvals with respect to the Property, or (d) the review of any Lease or proposed Lease or the preparation or review of any subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreement. In addition, in any civil action to foreclose the lien hereof or otherwise enforce Lender’s rights, there shall be allowed and included as additional Indebtedness in the order or judgment for foreclosure and sale or other order all expenditures and expenses which may be paid or incurred by or on behalf of Lender including attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses, receiver’s fees, costs and expenses, appraiser’s fees, engineers’ fees, outlays for documentary and expert evidence, stenographers’ charges, publication costs, and costs (which may be estimates as to items to be expended after entry of said order or judgment) of procuring all such abstracts of title, title searches and examination, title insurance policies, Torrens’ Certificates and similar data and assurances with respect to the title as Lender may deem reasonably necessary either to prosecute such civil action or to evidence to bidders at any sale which may be had pursuant to such order or judgment the true condition of the title to, or the value of, the Property (all said expenditures and expenses are hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Reimbursable Expenses”). All Reimbursable Expenses, and such costs, expenses and fees as may be incurred by Lender at any time or times hereafter in the protection of the Property, in enforcing the Obligations, and/or the maintenance of the lien established by any of the Loan Documents, including accountants’ and attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses in any advice, litigation, or proceeding affecting the Loan Documents or the Property, whether instituted by Lender, Borrower or any other party, or in preparation for the commencement or defense of any action or proceeding or threatened action or proceeding, shall be immediately due and payable to Lender by Borrower, and, to the extent such services relate to the Hazardous Substances Indemnification Agreement of even date herewith from Borrower and Guarantors in favor of Lender, by Borrower and Guarantors, with interest thereon at the Default Rate set forth in the Note, and shall be secured by the Loan Documents. In addition, Borrower shall be liable for the payment of all commissions and brokerage fees relating to the Loan.
23. Application of Proceeds of Foreclosure Sale. The proceeds of any foreclosure sale of the Property shall be distributed and applied in the order of priority set forth in the Note with the excess, if any, being applied to any parties entitled thereto as their rights may appear.
24. Appointment of Receiver or Mortgagee in Possession. If an Event of Default is continuing or if Lender shall have accelerated the Indebtedness, Lender, upon application to a court of competent jurisdiction, shall be entitled as a matter of strict right, without notice, and without regard to the occupancy or value of any security for the Indebtedness, without any showing of fraud or mismanagement on the part of Borrower or the insolvency of any party bound for its payment, without regard to the existence of a declaration that the Indebtedness, or any portion thereof, is immediately due and payable, and without regard to the filing of a notice of default, to the appointment of a receiver or the immediate appointment of Lender to take possession of and to operate the Property, and to collect and apply the rents, issues, profits and revenues thereof, and Borrower consents to such appointment.
25. Forbearance by Lender Not a Waiver. Any forbearance by Lender in exercising any right or remedy under any of the Loan Documents, or otherwise afforded by applicable law, shall not be a waiver of or preclude the exercise of any right or remedy. Lender’s acceptance of payment of any sum secured by any of the Loan Documents after the due date of such payment shall not be a waiver of Lender’s right to either require prompt payment when due of all other sums so secured or to declare a default for failure to make prompt payment. The procurement of insurance or the payment of taxes or other liens or charges by Lender shall not be a waiver of Lender’s right to accelerate the maturity of the Indebtedness, nor shall Lender’s receipt of any awards, proceeds or damages under Paragraph 5 hereof operate to cure or waive Borrower’s default in payment or sums secured by any of the Loan Documents. With respect to all Loan Documents, only waivers made in writing by Lender shall be effective against Lender.
26. Waiver of Statute of Limitations. Borrower hereby waives the right to assert any statute of limitations as a bar to the enforcement of the lien created by any of the Loan Documents or to any action brought to enforce the Note or any other obligation secured by any of the Loan Documents.
27. Waiver of Homestead and Redemption. Borrower hereby waives all rights of homestead exemption in the Property. Borrower hereby waives all right of redemption on behalf of Borrower and on behalf of all other persons acquiring any interest or title in the Property subsequent to the date of this Mortgage, except decree or judgment creditors of Borrower.
28. Jury Trial Waiver.

THIS WAIVER IS KNOWINGLY, INTENTIONALLY AND VOLUNTARILY MADE BY BORROWER AND BY LENDER, AND BORROWER ACKNOWLEDGES ON BEHALF OF ITSELF AND ITS PARTNERS, MEMBERS, SHAREHOLDERS, AS THE CASE MAY BE, THAT NEITHER LENDER NOR ANY PERSON ACTING ON BEHALF OF LENDER HAS MADE ANY REPRESENTATIONS OF FACT TO INDUCE THIS WAIVER OF TRIAL BY JURY OR HAS TAKEN ANY ACTIONS WHICH IN ANY WAY MODIFY OR NULLIFY ITS EFFECT. BORROWER AND LENDER ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THIS WAIVER IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT TO ENTER INTO A BUSINESS RELATIONSHIP, THAT BORROWER AND LENDER HAVE ALREADY RELIED ON THIS WAIVER IN ENTERING INTO THE LOAN DOCUMENTS AND THAT EACH OF THEM WILL CONTINUE TO RELY ON THIS WAIVER IN THEIR RELATED FUTURE DEALINGS. BORROWER AND LENDER FURTHER ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THEY HAVE BEEN REPRESENTED (OR HAVE HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE REPRESENTED) IN THE SIGNING OF THE LOAN DOCUMENTS AND IN THE MAKING OF THIS WAIVER BY INDEPENDENT LEGAL COUNSEL, SELECTED OF THEIR OWN FREE WILL AND THAT THEY HAVE HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO DISCUSS THIS WAIVER WITH COUNSEL.
29. Indemnification. In addition to any other indemnifications provided in any of the other Loan Documents, Borrower shall, at its sole cost and expense, protect, defend, indemnify, release and save harmless Lender, or any person or entity who is or will have been involved in the servicing of this Loan, as well as the respective affiliates, subsidiaries, persons controlling or under common control, directors, officers, shareholders, members, partners, employees, agents, servants, representatives, contractors, subcontractors, participants, successors and assigns of any and all of the foregoing (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”), from and against all liabilities, obligations, claims, demands, damages, penalties, causes of action, losses, fines, costs and expenses (including without limitation reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses), imposed upon or incurred by or asserted against any of the Indemnified Parties and directly or indirectly arising out of or in any way relating to any one or more of the following: (a) ownership of this Mortgage, the Property or any interest therein or receipt of any Rents; (b) any amendment to, or restructuring of, the Indebtedness, the Note, this Mortgage or any other Loan Documents; (c) any and all lawful action that may be taken by Lender in connection with the enforcement of the provisions of this Mortgage or the Note or any other Loan Documents, whether or not suit is filed in connection with same, or in connection with Borrower or any Guarantor becoming a party to a voluntary or involuntary federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or similar proceeding; (d) any accident, injury to or death of persons or loss of or damage to property occurring in, on or about the Property or any part thereof or on the adjoining sidewalks, curbs, adjacent property or adjacent parking areas, streets or ways; (e) any failure on the part of Borrower to perform or comply with any of the terms of this Mortgage; (f) performance of any labor or services or the furnishing of any materials or other property in respect of the Property or any part thereof; (g) any failure of the Property to comply with any laws or ordinances affecting or which may be interpreted to affect the Property; or (h) any representation or warranty made in the Note, this Mortgage or the other Loan Documents being false or misleading in any respect as of the date such representation or warranty was made. The obligations and liabilities of Borrower under this Paragraph 29 (A) shall survive for a period of two (2) years following any release of this Mortgage executed by Lender and satisfaction of the Loan evidenced by the Loan Documents, and (B) shall survive the transfer or assignment of this Mortgage, the entry of a judgment of foreclosure, sale of the Property by nonjudicial foreclosure sale, or delivery of a deed in lieu of foreclosure (including, without limitation, any transfer by Borrower of any of its rights, title and interest in and to the Property to any party, whether or not affiliated with Borrower); provided, however, that any act or omission pursuant to subparagraphs (a) through (h) above was taken or occurred prior to the payment in full of the Indebtedness.
30. Duty to Defend. Upon written request by an Indemnified Party, Borrower shall defend such Indemnified Party (if requested by an Indemnified Party, in the name of the Indemnified Party) by attorneys and other professionals approved by the Indemnified Parties. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Indemnified Parties may, in their sole and absolute discretion, engage their own attorneys and other professionals to defend or assist them, and, at the option of the Indemnified Parties, their attorneys shall control the resolution of the claim or proceeding. Upon demand, Borrower shall pay or, in the sole and absolute discretion of the Indemnified Parties, reimburse, the Indemnified Parties for the payment of reasonable fees and disbursements of attorneys, engineers, and other professionals in connection therewith.
