The expenses, including receiver’s fees, attorneys’ fees, costs and agent’s commission incurred pursuant to the powers herein contained, together with interest thereon at the default rate under the Note, shall be secured hereby and shall be due and payable by Xxxxxxxxx immediately without notice or demand.

(s) Attorney-In-Fact. Mortgagor hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints Xxxxxx, or any agent designated by Xxxxxx, for so long as this Mortgage remains undischarged of record, as attorney-in-fact of Xxxxxxxxx (exercisable upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default) to execute, acknowledge, seal and deliver all instruments, agreements, deeds, certificates and other documents of every nature and description in order to carry out or implement the exercise of Xxxxxx’s rights hereunder and under the other Loan Documents.

The cost and expense of any cure hereunder (including reasonable attorneys’ fees to the extent permitted by law), with interest as provided below, shall constitute a portion of the Debt and shall be due and payable to Mortgagee upon demand. All such costs and expenses actually incurred by Mortgagee in remedying such Event of Default shall bear interest at the Default Rate (as defined herein) for the period after notice from Mortgagee that such cost or expense was incurred to the date of payment to Mortgagee and shall be deemed to constitute a portion of the Debt and be secured by this Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents and shall be immediately due and payable upon demand by Mortgagee therefor.

Section 9.04. Actions and Proceedings. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Loan Agreement, during the continuance of an Event of Default, Mortgagee has the right to appear in and defend any action or proceeding brought with respect to the Property and, after the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, to bring any action or proceeding, in the name and on behalf of Xxxxxxxxx, which Mortgagee, in its discretion, decides should be brought to protect its interest in the Property.

This Security Instrument shall continue as a lien and security interest in the remaining portion of the Property.

Section 9.08. Violation of Laws.
