insurance policy.

such Voucher by Lender shall not constitute an approval or acceptance of the work or
materials, nor be binding upon Lender, except to the extent that the facts actually are as

any engineer engaged by Borrower to superintend or supervise the work
or any part thereof, any contractor or sub-contractors and materialmen, or some or any
of them, as Lender may elect from time to time. At discretion of Lender, such payments may
be made to governmental bodies pursuant to an arrangement securing obligations of the

than those reasonably agreed to by Lender and/or (ii) a full or partial release of liens for
all work performed or materials furnished through the date of the Voucher from any and all
contractors, subcontractors, materialmen, architects, engineers or others who may be

mortgage, conditional sale, security interest or any other lien or encumbrance, physically
incorporated into the construction. Each such Voucher, when approved by the person(s) named

incorporated into the construction free of liens and encumbrances as aforesaid, that the
value is as estimated, (ii) that they have been performed or installed in a good and
workmanlike manner, (iii) that the work and materials conform to the Land Development Plans

rules, regulations and requirements, and (iv) that all improvements are wholly with the
building restrictions (however established) of the Real Property.
(d) Upon approval of each Voucher by Lender, Lender shall make disbursements of the
amount called for by Voucher, at Lender’s option either (i) by its check in the requisite
amount to the person entitled thereto, pursuant to the Voucher or (ii) by depositing such
sum in an account of Borrower maintained with Lender or to such other bank account
designated by Borrower at a bank approved, in writing, by Lender, or (iii) by depositing
such sum with the title insurance company insuring the lien of the Mortgage and acting as
disbursing agent for the Loan proceeds.

Property or the improvements, and if such funds so agreed to be advanced are insufficient,
Borrower agrees to deliver and pay to Lender, such sum(s) of money as Lender may demand from
time to time for the purpose of completing the improvements or of paying any of the
aforesaid charges or premiums, or any other charge or expense which may have been incurred
or assumed by Lender under or in performance of this Agreement. In making disbursements,
Lender shall draw first upon such additional deposits made by Borrower until such funds have
been exhausted, and then upon the Loan.
(h) Borrower agrees that by making a request for an advance hereunder, Borrower shall
be deemed to be reconfirming to Lender that all representations and warranties of Borrower
set forth in Section 3 of this Agreement and all related instruments, agreements and

similar law, or appointing a receiver, liquidator, assignee, custodian, trustee,
sequestrator (or similar official) of Borrower for the Collateral, or ordering the
winding-up or liquidation of Borrower’s affairs and the continuance of any such decree or
order unstayed and in effect for a period of sixty (60) days.
(f) Default Under Other Documents. An “Event of Default” or similar event shall have
occurred and be continuing under any other Loan Document.
(g) Judgments. One or more judgments are entered against Borrower with respect to the
Collateral or claims involving the Collateral in the aggregate amount of Fifty Thousand
Dollars ($50,000) or more, and Borrower shall not obtain the satisfaction, release, stay or
dismissal thereof within sixty (60) days thereof.
(h) Cross-Collateral/Cross-Default. Any Event of Default under the Loan Documents or
an event of Default under any other loan with Lender shall constitute a default under all
loans to Borrower, and further, the Collateral for the loan to Borrower shall serve as
Collateral for all loans to Borrower.
7.2 Acceleration. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default specified in Subsection
7.1, Lender may, by written notice to Borrower, terminate immediately and irrevocably any
obligation of Lender to make any advances to or for the account of Borrower, and declare the Notes
and all other instruments evidencing the Obligations to be due and payable, whereupon the principal
amount of the Notes and all outstanding Obligations, together with accrued interest thereon and all
other amounts payable thereunder, shall become immediately due and payable without presentment,
demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived, anything
contained herein or in the documents evidencing the same to the contrary notwithstanding.
7.3 Right of Setoff. Upon the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default, Lender
shall have the right, in addition to all other rights and remedies available to it, to set off
against the unpaid balance of the Notes, and any other Obligations, any debt owing to Borrower by
Lender and any funds in any deposit account maintained by Borrower with Lender.
7.4 No Marshalling, Etc., Required. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, Lender shall not be required to marshal any present or future security for, or
guarantees of, the Obligations or to resort to any such security or guarantee in any particular
order and Borrower waives, to the fullest extent that it lawfully can, (a) any right it might have
to require Lender to pursue any particular remedy before proceeding against it, and
(b) any right to the benefit of, or to direct the application of the proceeds of, any
Collateral until the Obligations have been paid in full.
7.5 Site Assessments. In connection with Lender’s consideration of enforcement or
preservation of rights under any Loan Document, if an Event of Default shall occur if there is a
change in circumstances regarding the Real Property which Lender reasonably believes requires
further environmental site assessments or reports, Borrower shall permit such persons (“Site
Reviewers”) as Lender may select to visit the Real Property and perform such environmental and
other site investigations and assessments thereof (“Site Assessments”) for the purpose of
determining whether the Real Property is subject to any Contamination or other condition which
could result in any liability, cost or expense to the owner or occupier thereof relating to
Hazardous Substances or otherwise. Such Site Assessments may include both above-and
below-the-ground sampling and/or testing for Contamination and such other tests as may be necessary
in the opinion of the Site Reviewers. Borrower shall supply to the Site Reviewers such historical
and operational information, including the results of all samples sent for analysis, correspondence
with official bodies and previous environmental audits or environmental reviews regarding its
properties as are within its possession, custody or control or which are reasonably available to
it, and will make available for meetings with the Site Reviewers appropriate personnel employed by
Borrower having knowledge of such matters. The cost of performing all Site Assessments shall be
paid by Borrower within ten (10) days after demand by Lender, together with interest thereon at the
default rate specified in the Notes from and after such tenth day until paid. The provisions of
this Subsection 7.5 are in addition to all rights of Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents. Copies of all reports shall be promptly provided to Borrower at Borrower’s request.
SECTION 8. MISCELLANEOUS.
8.1 No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No failure or delay on the part of Lender in
exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder or under the other Loan Documents shall operate
as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege
hereunder or thereunder preclude or require any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise
of any other right, power or privilege. Lender shall not be deemed, by any act of omission or
commission, to have waived any of its rights or remedies hereunder unless such waiver is in writing
and signed by Lender, and then only to the extent specifically set forth in writing. A waiver with
respect to one event shall not be construed as continuing or as a bar to or a waiver of any right
or remedy with respect to a subsequent event. The rights and remedies herein provided are
cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law.
8.2 Notices. All notices, requests, demands and other communications hereunder shall
be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given (a) when delivered, if delivered by hand

prepaid, (c) on the next business day after dispatch, if delivered by Federal Express or other

thereof.
8.5 Survival of Representations and Warranties. All representations, warranties,
covenants and agreements made in this Agreement and all other Loan Documents shall survive the
execution and delivery of the Loan Documents and the making of the Loan hereunder. The provisions

assign or transfer its rights hereunder without the prior written consent of Lender.
8.7 Construction. This Agreement, and the rights and obligations of the parties
hereunder and thereunder shall be governed by, and construed and interpreted in accordance with,
the domestic internal laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania without regard to its rules
pertaining to conflict of laws. The Section headings contained in this Agreement are for reference
purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.
8.8 Severability. Any provision contained in this Agreement which is prohibited or
unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of

contemplated in the Loan Documents shall be consummated, to pay, assume liability for, and
indemnify, protect, defend, save and keep harmless Lender from and against, any and all
liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, settlements, claims, actions, suits, penalties, costs
and expenses (including, but not limited to, legal and investigative fees and expenses) of
whatsoever kind and nature, including, but not limited to claims based upon negligence, strict or
absolute liability, liability in tort, latent and other defects (whether or not discoverable), and
any claim for patent, trademark or copyright infringement which may from time to time be imposed
on, incurred by or asserted against Lender (whether or not any such claim is also indemnified or
insured against by any other person) in any way relating to or resulting from this Agreement or any
other Loan Document, or any of the transactions contemplated herein or therein, except if claim is
the result of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Lender. The provisions of this
subsection shall survive the payoff, release, foreclosure or other disposition, as applicable, of
this Agreement, the Obligations or the Collateral.
8.10 Waiver of Trial by Jury; Jurisdiction.
(a) Each party to this Agreement agrees that any suit, action, or proceeding, whether claim or
counterclaim, brought or instituted by either party hereto or any successor or assign of any party
on or with respect to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or which in any way relates,
directly or indirectly, to the Loans or any event, transaction, or occurrence arising out of or in
any way connection with the Loans, or the dealings of the parties with respect thereto, shall be
tried only by a court and not by a jury. EACH PARTY HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO A TRIAL
BY JURY IN ANY SUCH SUIT, ACTION, OR PROCEEDING. BORROWER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT THIS
SUBSECTION 8.10 IS A SPECIFIC AND MATERIAL ASPECT OF THIS AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE PARTIES AND THAT
LENDER WOULD NOT EXTEND THE LOANS TO BORROWER IF THIS WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL SECTION WERE NOT A PART
OF THIS AGREEMENT.
(b) For the purpose of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this
Agreement, the Notes or the Loans, Borrower hereby irrevocably consents and submits to the
jurisdiction and venue of any of the following: the Court of Common Pleas of Dauphin County or the
Federal District Court for the Middle District of Pennsylvania. Borrower irrevocably waives any
objection which it may now or hereinafter have to the laying of the venue of any suit, action or
proceeding brought in such court and any claim that such suit, action or proceeding brought in such
a court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. The provisions of this Paragraph 8.10(b) shall
not limit or otherwise affect the right of Lender to institute and conduct action in any other
appropriate manner, jurisdiction or court.

on this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any matter in or related to this Agreement or any
other Loan Document, including but not limited to the making of the Loan or the administration or
collection thereof, shall be brought only in the courts of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.
Borrower may not file a counterclaim against Lender in a suit brought by Lender against Borrower in
a state other than the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania unless under the rules of procedure of the
court in which Lender brought the action the counterclaim is mandatory and will be considered
waived unless filed as a counterclaim in the action instituted by Lender.
(b) Upon full payment and satisfaction of the Loan and the interest thereon, as provided in
Section 2 hereof, the parties shall thereupon automatically each be fully, finally, and forever
released and discharged from any further claim, liability or obligation in connection with the
Loans except as expressly set forth herein, except to the extent an payment received by Lender is
determined to be a preference or similar voidable transfer.
8.12 Performance by Lender. If Borrower shall fail to observe or perform any of the
terms, agreements or covenants contained in this Agreement, or in any other Loan Document, Lender
may, in its discretion, but without any obligation or duty to do so, and without waiving any
Default, or Event of Default, perform any of such terms, agreements or
covenants, in part or in whole, and any money advanced or expended by Lender in or toward the
fulfillment of such terms, agreements or covenants, shall be due on demand and become a part of and
be added to the indebtedness due under the Notes and secured as herein provided with interest
thereon at the rate specified in such Notes from the date of the respective advance or expenditure.
Lender’s rights contained in this Subsection 8.12 shall be in addition to all of Lender’s rights
under any other provision of this Agreement, and Lender may, at its sole election, exercise any one
or more, or all, of such rights alternatively or concurrently.

instruments, and take such other actions, as Lender deems necessary to consummate the transactions

agreement between Lender and Borrower with respect to the financing transactions to which they
relate, and cannot be changed or amended except by an agreement in writing signed by the party
against whom enforcement of the change or amendment is sought.
