The Tax and Insurance Reserve Account shall be a custodial account established by Lender and shall not constitute a trust fund. At Lender’s option, funds deposited into the Tax and Insurance Reserve Account may be commingled with other money held by Lender or its servicer.

ARTICLE III COLLATERAL

3.1 - Collateral. In addition to other items of collateral or security as provided elsewhere herein, or in the other Loan Documents, the Loan shall be secured by:

(a) Mortgage. A first and valid lien upon the Borrower’s fee simple interest in the Property, which Property is known by the street addresses of 1100-1114 Kings Highway, 0000-0000 Xxxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxxx and 2091-2097 Coney Island Avenue, Brooklyn, New York, and Property consists of approximately 0.81 acres of land improved with three (3) retail/office buildings containing approximately 61,318 square feet of gross leasable area.

(b) Security Agreement. A first and valid blanket lien on and security interest in and to all (i) revenues, receipts, income, accounts, accounts receivable and other receivables of Borrower including, without limitation, revenues, income receivables and accounts relating to or arising from rentals, rent equivalent income, income and profits from the Property; (ii) all general intangibles, chattel paper instruments, letters of credit and inventory and all other assets of Borrower; and (iii) all personal property and fixtures of Borrower, whether now owned or later acquired.

(i) A general assignment of rents and leases, in form and substance satisfactory to Lender of all leases and rents now existing or arising in the future. 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. Borrower shall not: (a) enter into any lease, sublease or other rental agreement concerning leased space in excess of 5,000 square feet; or (b) amend or modify any leases in any material manner (as long as the same shall not create a default under Section 5.1(g) of this Agreement), which shall include, but not be limited to, any decreases in the rent, changes in the term or changes that otherwise increase the landlord’s obligations thereunder or decrease the tenant’s obligations thereunder, in each of the cases under the foregoing sub-paragraphs (a) and (b) without Lender’s prior written approval of said lease or rental agreement (or amendment or modification), which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, and in no event shall any lease or rental agreement contain any option or rights of first refusal to purchase the Property. Borrower shall cause any tenant and/or occupant whose lease is not automatically subordinate to the Lender’s mortgage on terms and conditions acceptable to the Lender to duly execute and deliver to the Lender a subordination, ratification, non-disturbance and attornment agreement, which agreement shall be satisfactory and in form and substance to the Lender and shall provide, among other terms, that (i) tenant acknowledges the assignment of its lease or rental agreement to the Lender; (ii) 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 or occupant receives a notice to the contrary from the Borrower; (iii) the Lender shall not be responsible for refunding any security deposits unless the Lender has actually received said deposits; (iv) that the parties will not modify, amend, cancel, surrender, or pledge or assign the lease without the Lender’s consent; and (v) that the tenant will not terminate the lease by reason of landlord’s 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 nondisturbance agreement from the Lender the Lender agrees to issue such nondisturbance as long as such tenant is not in any way affiliated with or owned or controlled by Borrower. Lender agrees, however, not to exercise any such assignments until such time as an Event of Default exists hereunder or under the Loan Documents. Attached hereto as Schedule C is a true and accurate rent roll (the “Rent Roll”) of tenants currently occupying any portion of the Property.

(ii) After closing, all new leases at the Property and the tenants thereunder, and any renewals or amendments to any of the Existing Leases shall be subject to the Lender’s prior written approval (all such new leases, and all such renewals or amendments, “Approved Leases,” and all such new tenants thereunder, the “Approved Tenants”); provided, however, Lender’s approval shall not be required with respect to the new leases concerning the leasing of space of less than 5,000 square feet nor with respect to the exercise of the extension of the term of any Approved Leases pursuant to and in accordance with an option to extend as set forth in any such Approved Leases.

(iii) Lender is authorized to notify lessees of the existence of such assignments. Lender agrees, however, not to exercise any such assignments until such time as a default or event of default exists under the Loan documents beyond any applicable cure periods under the documents evidencing and securing the Loan.

(iv) If the Lender should so require, the written lease subordination, ratification and attornment agreements described hereinabove shall be recorded in the appropriate land records.

(d) Interest Rate Swap. Borrower shall at all times (at Borrower’s sole cost and expense) maintain in effect until the Loan is fully satisfied the Interest Rate Swap Agreement (as such term is defined in the Note) with an Acceptable Counterparty (as such term is defined below in Section 8.22 hereof), and otherwise in accordance with the terms and conditions outlined in Section 8.22 hereof. Borrower hereby assigns to Lender all of its rights and benefits (but none of its obligations or liabilities, if any) in, to and under the Interest Rate Swap Agreement and upon Lender’s request shall execute and deliver any additional documents required by Lender to further effectuate such assignment. Borrower shall not assign its interest under the Interest Rate Swap Agreement to any party other than Lender. Borrower shall use the sums payable to Borrower under the Interest Rate Swap Agreement solely for Borrower’s liabilities and obligations first, with respect to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and second, other expenses directly attributable to the operation of the Property and none of such sums payable to Borrower under the Interest Rate Swap Agreement shall be diverted by Borrower and/or utilized for any other purpose unless all such current liabilities and obligations to Lender and current expenses attributable to the operation of the Property have been fully paid and satisfied. The Interest Rate Swap Agreement and the Loan Documents are cross-defaulted and cross-collateralized. The failure of Borrower to comply with this paragraph shall constitute a misappropriation of funds.

(e) 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.

(f) 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”.

Notice to the Lender hereunder shall be directed to the attention, of the Commercial Mortgage Department.

8.18 - Patriot Act Compliance. Borrower will use 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 Borrower’s 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, member, manager or officer in the Borrower or member of such partner nor any owner of a direct or, to Borrower’s knowledge, indirect interest in the Borrower nor the 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 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. “Patriot Act Offense” also includes the crimes of conspiracy to commit, or aiding and abetting another to commit, a Patriot Act Offense. For purposes hereof, the term “Government Lists” means (i) the Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons Lists maintained by Office of Foreign Assets Control (“OFAC”), (ii) any other list of terrorists, terrorist organizations or narcotics traffickers maintained pursuant to any of the Rules and Regulations of OFAC that Lender notified Borrower in writing is now included in “Governmental Lists”, or (iii) any similar lists maintained by the United States Department of State, the United States Department of Commerce or any other governmental authority or pursuant to any Executive Order of the President of the United States of America that Lender notified Borrower in writing is now included in “Governmental Lists”.

8.19 - Usury Savings Clause. 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 Borrower’s and Lender’s 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.

8.20 - 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 Lender’s 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 Lender’s sole 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 Borrower’s 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.

8.21 - Commitment Fee. On or prior to the date hereof, Borrower has paid to Lender a non-refundable commitment fee in the amount of One Hundred One Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($101,000.00).

8.22 – Interest Rate Protection.

(a) Borrower shall at all times for so long as the Loan remains outstanding, maintain the Interest Rate Swap Agreement and pay the premium thereof in full with an Acceptable Counterparty, which shall be for the entire term of the Loan, all upon terms and subject to such conditions as shall be acceptable to Lender (or if such transaction is with another financial institution, all upon terms and subject to such conditions as shall be approved by Lender in writing).

(b) Borrower hereby acknowledges that prepayment, acceleration, reduction, increase or any other change in the terms of the Loan will not permit the Borrower to alter the notional amount of the Interest Rate Swap Agreement or otherwise affect the Borrower’s obligation to continue making payments to Lender under the Interest Rate Swap Agreement, which shall remain in full force and effect until the Loan is fully satisfied; provided, however, (i) if the notional amount of the Interest Rate Swap Agreement exceeds the outstanding balance of the Loan as a result of a prepayment, repayment, reduction or other change in the terms of the Loan in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents (individually and collectively, the “Reduction”), the Counterparty (as defined below) may, with prior notice to the Lender, reduce the notional amount of the Interest Rate Swap Agreement by a pro rata amount to reflect the amount of the Loan outstanding, or that will be outstanding, as a result of the Reduction and any amount payable under the Interest Rate Swap Agreement as a result of such reduction in the notional amount shall be paid by Borrower at the same time as the prepayment or repayment of the Loan in accordance with the terms of the Note; and (ii) if there is an acceleration of the Loan due to an Event of Default under the Loan Documents, or the security afforded by the Loan Documents becomes enforceable as a result of an Event of Default without a related acceleration of the Loan, Counterparty may terminate the

Interest Protection Swap Agreement upon prior notice to the Lender. Upon the occurrence of any such event described in (i) or (ii) above, Borrower may be required, at Lender’s sole discretion, to purchase a replacement Interest Rate Swap Agreement (at Borrower’s sole cost and expense) with an Acceptable Counterparty and which otherwise complies with the terms and conditions of this Section 8.21, and maintain such replacement Interest Rate Swap Agreement in effect until the Loan is fully satisfied.

(c) The Interest Rate Swap Agreement shall be maintained throughout the term of the Loan with (x) any counterparty to, or issuer of, an Interest Rate Swap Agreement, other than Borrower (or an affiliate of Borrower), that has and shall maintain until the expiration of the applicable Interest Rate Swap Agreement, a long-term unsecured debt rating acceptable to Lender (the “Counterparty Ratings Requirement”), and is otherwise acceptable to Lender in Lender’s sole and absolute discretion, or (y) Lender (or an affiliate of Lender, or their successors-in-interest) (each of (x) and (y) are individually referred to herein as “Counterparty” or “Acceptable Counterparty”, as context requires). If the Counterparty (other than Lender) of the Interest Rate Swap Agreement thereafter fails to meet the Counterparty Ratings Requirement, Borrower shall obtain a replacement Interest Rate Swap Agreement from an Acceptable Counterparty at Borrower’s sole cost and expense within fifteen (15) days of notice by Lender or Borrower obtaining knowledge that the Counterparty (other than Lender) is unable to meet the Counterparty Ratings Requirement.

(d) Borrower shall collaterally assign its interests in the Interest Rate Swap Agreement to Lender pursuant to a pledge and assignment thereof (the “Assignment of Interest Protection Agreement”) in a form acceptable to Lender, which shall include an assignment of all of Borrower’s right, title and interest to receive any and all payments under the Interest Rate Swap Agreement (and any related guarantee, if any) and shall deliver to Lender a counterpart of such Assignment of Interest Rate Swap Agreement executed by Borrower and by Counterparty and notify the Counterparty (if other than Lender or an affiliate of Lender) of such collateral assignment (either in such Interest Rate Swap Agreement or by separate instrument). At such time as the Loan is repaid in full, all of Lender’s right, title and interest in any Interest Rate Swap Agreement shall terminate and Lender shall upon written request execute and deliver, at Borrower’s sole cost and expense, such documents as may be required to evidence Lender’s release of the Assignment of the Interest Rate Swap Agreement and to notify the of such release.

(e) Borrower shall comply with all of its obligations under the terms and provisions of the Interest Rate Swap Agreement. All amounts paid by Counterparty under the Interest Rate Swap Agreement to Borrower or Lender shall be deposited immediately with Lender to be applied in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Note and the other Loan Documents. Borrower shall take all actions reasonably requested by Lender to enforce Lender’s rights under the Interest Rate Swap Agreement in the event of a default by Counterparty and shall not waive, amend or otherwise modify any of its rights thereunder.

(f) In the event that Borrower fails to purchase and deliver to Lender the Interest Rate Swap Agreement as and when required hereunder, or fails to maintain such agreement in accordance with the terms and provisions of this Mortgage, Lender may purchase the Interest Rate Swap Agreement and the cost incurred by Lender in purchasing the Interest

Rate Swap Agreement shall be paid by Borrower to Lender with interest thereon at the Default Rate from the date such cost was incurred by Lender until such cost is paid by Borrower to Lender.

8.23 - Secondary Financing; Additional Debt/Subordination.

(a) No secondary financing by Borrower of any kind shall be permitted without Lender’s prior written consent, to be given or withheld in Lender’s sole discretion. Any secondary financing obtained by the Borrower and/or secured by the Property or any other business assets or any part thereof or interest therein without such consent shall be a default under the Loan Documents causing, at Lender’s option, the entire amount of the Loan and all other indebtedness of the Borrower to Lender to be immediately due and payable.

(b) (i) All inter-company receivables; (ii) all inter-company loans; and (iii) all loans from the Borrower to its members or shareholders are subordinated in favor of Lender and to the lien of this Mortgage. Any repayment agreement executed in connection with the foregoing obligations shall be subject to Lender’s approval, in its sole discretion.

8.24 – Assignment of Mortgage in Lieu of Discharge. Upon payment in full of the Loan and Borrower’s written request, Lender agrees to execute and deliver to Borrower (or its designee) an assignment of the Mortgage in recordable form, provided, however, that such assignment shall be without recourse to Lender and Borrower shall pay Lender’s costs (including reasonable attorney’s fees) incurred in connection with the delivery of such assignment.
