Section 3.03 Expenses. All Costs, expenses, allocated or accrued fees, or other amounts paid or incurred by Lender in the exercise of its rights under the Documents, together with interest thereon at the applicable interest rate specified in the Loan Agreement, shall be (a) part of the Obligations, (b) secured by this Instrument, and (c) allowed and included as part of the Obligations in any foreclosure, decree for sale, power of sale, or other judgment or decree enforcing Lender’s rights under the Documents.
Section 3.04 Rights Pertaining to Sales. To the extent permitted under (and in accordance with) any Laws, the following provisions shall, as Lender may determine in its sole discretion, apply to any sales of the Property under this Article III, whether by judicial proceeding, judgment, decree, power of sale, foreclosure or otherwise: (a) Lender may conduct a single sale of the Property or multiple sales of any part of the Property in separate tracts or in its entirety or any other manner as Lender deems in its best interests and Borrower waives any right to require otherwise; (b) if Lender elects more than one sale of the Property, Lender may at its option cause the same to be conducted simultaneously or successively, on the same day or on such different days or times and in such order as Lender may deem to be in its best interests, no such sale shall terminate or otherwise affect the lien of this Instrument on any part of the Property not then sold, and Borrower shall pay the costs and expenses of each such sale; (c) any sale may be postponed or adjourned by public announcement at the time and place appointed for such sale or for such postponed or adjourned sale without further notice; or such sale may occur, without further notice, at the time fixed by the last
6
postponement or a new notice of sale may be given; and (d) Lender may acquire the Property and, in lieu of paying cash, may pay by crediting against the Obligations the amount of its bid, after deducting therefrom any sums which Lender is authorized to deduct under the provisions of the Documents. After any such sale, Lender shall deliver to the purchaser at such sale a deed conveying the property so sold, but without any covenant or warranty, express or implied. The recitals in any such deed of any matters or facts shall be conclusive proof of the truthfulness thereof. Any person, including Borrower or Lender, may purchase at such sale.
Section 3.05 Application of Proceeds. Any proceeds received from any sale or disposition under this Article III or otherwise, together with any other sums held by Lender, shall, except as expressly provided to the contrary, be applied in the order determined by Lender to: (a) payment of all Costs and expenses of any enforcement action or foreclosure sale, transfer of title by power of sale, or otherwise, including interest thereon at the applicable interest rate specified in the Loan Agreement, (b) all taxes, Assessments, and other charges unless the Property was sold subject to these items; (c) payment of the Obligations in such order as Lender may elect; (d) payment of any other sums secured or required to be paid by Borrower; and (e) payment of the surplus, if any, to any person lawfully entitled to receive it.

Section 3.06 Additional Provisions as to Remedies. No failure, refusal, waiver, or delay by Lender to exercise any rights under the Documents upon any default or Event of Default shall impair Lender’s rights or be construed as a waiver of, or acquiescence to, such or any subsequent default or Event of Default. No recovery of any judgment by Lender and no levy of an execution upon the Property or any other property of Borrower shall affect the lien and security interest created by this Instrument and such liens, rights, powers, and remedies shall continue unimpaired as before. Lender may resort to any security given by this Instrument or any other security now given or hereafter existing to secure the Obligations, in whole or in part, in such portions and in such order as Lender may deem advisable, and no such action shall be construed as a waiver of any of the liens, rights, or benefits granted hereunder. Acceptance of any payment after any Event of Default shall not be deemed a waiver or a cure of such Event of Default and such acceptance shall be deemed an acceptance on account only. If Lender has started enforcement of any right by foreclosure, sale, entry, or otherwise and such proceeding shall be discontinued, abandoned, or determined adversely for any reason, then Borrower and Lender shall be restored to their former positions and rights under the Documents with respect to the Property, subject to the lien and security interest hereof.
Section 3.07 Waiver of Rights and Defenses. To the fullest extent Borrower may do so under Laws, Borrower (a) will not at any time insist on, plead, claim, or take the benefit of any statute or rule of law now or later enacted providing for any appraisement, valuation, stay, extension, moratorium or redemption; (b) for itself, its successors and assigns, and for any person ever claiming an interest in the Property (other than Lender), waives and releases all rights of redemption, reinstatement, valuation, appraisement, notice of intention to mature or declare due the whole of the Obligations, all rights to a marshaling of the assets of Borrower, including the Property, or to a sale in inverse order of alienation, in the event of foreclosure (or extinguishment by transfer of title by power of sale) of the liens and security interests created under the
7
Documents; (c) shall not be relieved of its obligation to pay the Obligations as required in the Documents nor shall the lien or priority of the Documents be impaired by any agreement renewing, extending, or modifying the time of payment or the provisions of the Documents (including a modification of any interest rate), unless expressly released, discharged, or modified by such agreement. Regardless of consideration and without any notice to or consent by the holder of any subordinate lien, security interest, encumbrance, right, title, or interest in or to the Property, Lender may (a) release any person liable for payment of the Obligations or any portion thereof or any part of the security held for the Obligations or (b) modify any of the provisions of the Documents without impairing or affecting the Documents or the lien, security interest, or the priority of the modified Documents as security for the Obligations over any such subordinate lien, security interest, encumbrance, right, title, or interest.
Section 3.08 Additional Credit Bidding. In connection with any sale of the Property pursuant to Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code or any plan under the Bankruptcy Code, Lender shall have the right to acquire the Property and, in lieu of paying cash, Lender shall have the right (at its option) to pay by crediting against the Obligations the amount of its bid, after deducting therefrom any sums which Lender is authorized to deduct under the provisions of the Documents.
ARTICLE IV - SECURITY AGREEMENT
Section 4.01 Security Agreement. This Instrument constitutes both a real property mortgage and a “security agreement” within the meaning of the U.C.C. The Property includes real and personal property and all tangible and intangible rights and interest of Borrower in the Property. Borrower grants to Lender, as security for the Obligations, a security interest in the Personal Property to the fullest extent that the Personal Property may be subject to the U.C.C. Borrower authorizes Lender to file any financing or continuation statements and amendments thereto relating to the Personal Property without the signature of Borrower if permitted by Laws.
ARTICLE V - ADDITIONAL PROVISIONS
Section 5.01 Usury Savings Clause. Without limiting Section 1.02 above, the provisions of Section 9.01 of the Loan Agreement are hereby incorporated by reference into this Instrument to the same extent and with the same force as if fully set forth herein.

Any notice, request, demand, consent, approval, direction, agreement, or other communication (any “notice”) required or permitted under the Documents shall be in writing and shall be validly given if sent by a nationally-recognized courier that obtains receipts, delivered personally by a courier that obtains receipts, or mailed by United States certified mail (with return receipt requested and postage prepaid) addressed to the applicable person as follows:

Any party may periodically change its address for notice and specify up to two (2) additional addresses for copies by giving the other party at least ten (10) days’ prior notice.
Section 5.03 Applicable Law and Submission to Jurisdiction. This Instrument shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Property State and the applicable laws of the United States of America. Without limiting Lender’s right to bring any Action (as defined in the Loan Agreement) in the courts of other jurisdictions, Borrower irrevocably (a) submits to the jurisdiction of any state or federal court in the Property State, (b) agrees that any Action may be heard and determined in such court, and (c) waives, to the fullest extent permitted by Laws, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of any Action in such jurisdiction.
Section 5.04 Transfer of Loan.
(a) Lender may, at any time, (i) sell, transfer or assign the Documents and any servicing rights with respect thereto or (ii) grant participations therein or issue Securities (as defined in the Loan Agreement). Lender may forward to any Investors (as defined in the Loan Agreement), to any Rating Agency (as defined in the Loan Agreement) rating such Securities and to any prospective Investor, all documents and information which Lender now has or may later acquire relating to the Obligations, Borrower, any guarantor, any indemnitor(s), the Leases, and the Property, whether furnished by Borrower, any guarantor, any indemnitor(s) or otherwise, as Lender determines advisable. Lender agrees to use good faith, commercially reasonable efforts to cause all third-party Investors and potential Investors to sign Lender’s standard confidentiality agreement with respect to all documents and information provided to such Investors relating to the Obligations, Borrower, any guarantor, any indemnitor(s), the Leases, and the Property, which shall include market and customary exceptions and qualifications. Borrower, any guarantor and any indemnitor of
9
Borrower’s obligations under the Documents agree to cooperate with Lender in connection with any transfer made or any Securities created pursuant to this Section 5.04 including the delivery of an estoppel certificate in accordance with Section 3.16 of the Loan Agreement and such other documents as may be reasonably requested by Lender. Borrower shall also furnish any consent of Borrower, any guarantor and any indemnitor in order to permit Lender to furnish such Investors or such prospective Investors or such Rating Agency with any and all information concerning the Property, the Leases, the financial condition of Borrower, any guarantor and any indemnitor, as may be reasonably requested by Lender, any Investor, any prospective Investor or any Rating Agency and which may be complied with without undue expense.
(b) Borrower agrees that upon any assignment or transfer of the Documents by Lender to any third party, Borrower hereby waiving prior notice of any such transfer, Lender shall have no obligations or liabilities under the Documents, such third party shall be substituted as the lender under the Documents for all purposes, and, following Borrower’s receipt of written notice of such transfer, Borrower shall look solely to such third party for the performance of any obligations under the Documents or with respect to the Loan.
(c) Upon an assignment or other transfer of the Documents, Lender may, at its discretion, pay over the Deposits in its possession and deliver all other collateral mortgaged, granted, pledged or assigned pursuant to the Documents, or any part thereof, to the transferee who shall thereupon become vested with all the rights herein or under applicable law given to Lender with respect thereto, and Lender shall thereafter forever be relieved and fully discharged from any liability or responsibility in the matter; but Lender shall retain all rights hereby given to it with respect to any liabilities and the collateral not so transferred to Borrower or to the assignee or transferee of the Documents. If the Deposits are transferred or assigned to the assignee or transferee, then Borrower shall then look solely to such assignee or transferee with respect thereto. This provision shall apply to every transfer of the Deposits and any other collateral mortgaged, granted, pledged or assigned pursuant to the Documents, or any part thereof, to a new assignee or transferee. Subject to the provisions of Section 5.01 of the Loan Agreement, a transfer of title to the Land shall automatically transfer to the new owner the beneficial interest in the Deposits.
Section 5.05 Miscellaneous. If any provision of the Documents shall be held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any respect, this shall not affect any other provisions of the Documents and such provision shall be limited and construed as if it were not in the Documents. If title to the Property becomes vested in any person other than Borrower, then Lender may, without notice to Borrower, deal with such person regarding the Documents or the Obligations in the same manner as with Borrower without in any way vitiating or discharging Borrower’s liability under the Documents or being deemed to have consented to the vesting. If both the lessor’s and lessee’s interest under any Lease ever becomes vested in any one person, this Instrument and the lien and security interest created hereby shall not be destroyed or terminated by the application of the doctrine of merger, and Lender shall continue to have and enjoy all its rights and privileges as to each separate estate. Upon foreclosure (or transfer of title by power of sale) of this Instrument, none of the Leases shall be destroyed or terminated as a result of such foreclosure (or transfer of title by power of sale), by application of the doctrine of merger or as a matter of law, unless Lender takes all actions required by law to terminate the Leases as a result of foreclosure (or transfer of title by power of sale). All of Borrower’s covenants and agreements under the Documents shall run with the land and time is of the essence. Borrower appoints Lender as its attorney-in-fact, which appointment is irrevocable and shall be deemed to be coupled with an interest, with respect to the execution, acknowledgment, delivery, filing or recording for and in the
10
name of Borrower of any of the documents listed in Sections 3.04, 3.19, 4.01, and 6.02 of the Loan Agreement. The Documents cannot be amended, terminated, or discharged except in a writing signed by the party against whom enforcement is sought. No waiver, release, or other forbearance by Lender will be effective unless it is in a writing signed by Lender and then only to the extent expressly stated. The provisions of the Documents shall be binding upon Borrower and its heirs, devisees, representatives, successors, and assigns including successors in interest to the Property and inure to the benefit of Lender and its heirs, successors, substitutes, and assigns. Where two or more persons have executed the Documents, the obligations of such persons shall be joint and several, except to the extent the context clearly indicates otherwise. The Documents may be executed in any number of counterparts with the same effect as if all parties had executed the same document. All such counterparts shall be construed together and shall constitute one instrument, but in making proof hereof it shall only be necessary to produce one such counterpart. Upon receipt of a commercially reasonable affidavit (which shall contain a customary indemnity of Borrower by Lender) of an officer of Lender as to the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of any Document which is not of public record, and, in the case of any mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of the Document, Borrower will issue, in lieu thereof, a replacement Document, dated the date of the lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Document containing the same provisions. Any reviews, inspections, reports, approvals or similar items conducted, made or produced by or on behalf of Lender with respect to Borrower, the Property or the Loan are for loan underwriting and servicing purposes only, and shall not constitute an acknowledgment, representation or warranty of the accuracy thereof, or an assumption of liability with respect to Borrower, Borrower’s contractors, architects, engineers, employees, agents or invitees, present or future tenants, occupants or owners of the Property, or any other party.

Section 6.02 Environmental Representations, Warranties and Covenants. Subsection 3.12(a) of this Instrument is hereby amended by inserting after the words “including the” and before the words

Section 6.03 Remedies. Section 3.02 of this Instrument entitled “Remedies” is hereby amended by adding the following to the end of subsection (k) thereof:
“Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is expressly agreed that if at any time following an Event of Default hereunder (i) a writ of execution is issued upon a judgment obtained upon the Obligations or any portion thereof, or (ii) an action of mortgage foreclosure or any other action or proceeding is instituted in respect of this Instrument, there shall be payable to and recovered by Lender (W) the entire unpaid principal balance of the Obligations, with interest thereon at the interest rate then applicable under the Note, (X) all costs of suit (including reasonable attorneys’ fees, forum costs and disbursements), (Y) all moneys expended by Lender in payment of taxes, sewer rents and water rents, claims or charges and in effecting insurance coverage or repairs, with interest on such expenditures at the interest rate applicable under the Note, and (Z) an attorney’s commission of ten percent (10%) for collection of the Obligations provided, however, that such commission shall not exceed the actual amount of reasonable attorneys’ fees charged or billed to Lender in connection herewith. Borrower hereby waives and relinquishes unto Lender the right of inquisition in respect of any real estate that may be levied upon under a judgment obtained by virtue of any such action or proceeding and voluntarily condemns the same and authorizes the entry of such condemnation upon such writ of execution. Borrower further agrees that such real estate and any other Property (whether consisting of real or personal property) now or hereafter owned by Borrower may be sold in any order determined by Lender. Borrower likewise waives and relinquishes all benefit of any and every law now or hereafter in force to exempt from levy and sale on execution the Property or any other property whatsoever or any part of the proceeds arising from any such sale for the payment of the Obligations secured hereby (or any part thereof) and the legal fees and costs of such action and execution. Borrower likewise waives and relinquishes unto and in favor of Lender all benefits and exemptions under the laws now in effect or hereafter passed to relieve Borrower in any manner from the obligations assumed in connection with the Obligations for which this Instrument is security or to reduce the amount of the Obligations to any greater extent than the amount actually received by Lender from the sale of the Property in any judicial proceedings in respect of the Obligations or this Instrument.
THE FOLLOWING PARAGRAPH SETS FORTH A WARRANT OR AUTHORITY FOR AN ATTORNEY TO CONFESS JUDGMENT AGAINST BORROWER. IN GRANTING THIS WARRANT OR AUTHORITY FOR AN ATTORNEY TO CONFESS JUDGMENT AGAINST BORROWER, BORROWER HEREBY KNOWINGLY, INTENTIONALLY AND VOLUNTARILY, AND (ON THE ADVICE OF SEPARATE COUNSEL OF BORROWER) UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHTS BORROWER HAS OR MAY HAVE TO PRIOR NOTICE AND AN OPPORTUNITY FOR HEARING UNDER THE CONSTITUTIONS AND LAWS OF THE UNITED STATES AND THE COMMONWEALTH OF PENNSYLVANIA.
BORROWER, FOR THE PURPOSE OF SECURING POSSESSION OF THE PROPERTY TO LENDER IN THE EVENT OF ANY EVENT OF DEFAULT HEREUNDER, DOES HEREBY AUTHORIZE AND EMPOWER ANY ATTORNEY OF ANY COURT OF RECORD, AS ATTORNEY FOR BORROWER AS WELL AS FOR ALL PERSONS CLAIMING UNDER, BY OR THROUGH
12
BORROWER, TO COMMENCE AN ACTION IN EJECTMENT FOR POSSESSION OF THE PROPERTY WITHOUT ANY STAY OF EXECUTION OR APPEAL, AGAINST BORROWER, AND THEREIN TO CONFESS JUDGMENT FOR THE RECOVERY BY LENDER OF THE POSSESSION OF THE PROPERTY FOR WHICH THIS INSTRUMENT (OR A COPY THEREOF VERIFIED BY AFFIDAVIT) SHALL BE SUFFICIENT WARRANT, AND THEREUPON A WRIT OF POSSESSION MAY BE ISSUED FORTHWITH, WITHOUT ANY PRIOR WRIT, FORECLOSURE OR PROCEEDING WHATSOEVER. BORROWER HEREBY RELEASES AND AGREES TO RELEASE LENDER FROM ALL ERRORS AND DEFECTS WHATSOEVER IN CONNECTION WITH SUCH JUDGMENT, IN CAUSING A WRIT OR WRITS TO BE ISSUED, AND IN ANY PROCEEDING THEREON OR CONCERNING THE SAME. BORROWER AGREES THAT NO WRIT, ERROR, APPEAL OR OBJECTION SHALL BE MADE OR TAKEN THERETO, PROVIDED THAT LENDER SHALL HAVE FILED IN SUCH ACTION AN AFFIDAVIT OF DEFAULT MADE BY IT OR SOMEONE ON ITS BEHALF. IT IS HEREBY EXPRESSLY AGREED THAT IF FOR ANY REASON AFTER SUCH ACTION HAS BEEN COMMENCED, THE SAME SHALL BE DISCONTINUED, MARKED SATISFIED OF RECORD, OR DETERMINED, OR POSSESSION OF THE PROPERTY SHALL REMAIN IN OR BE RESTORED TO BORROWER, THE RIGHTS AND POWERS OF LENDER SHALL NOT BE DEEMED TO HAVE BEEN EXHAUSTED BY ANY SUCH ACTION, BUT LENDER SHALL HAVE THE SAME RIGHTS AS AFORESAID, FOR THE SAME EVENT OF DEFAULT, OR FOR ANY SUBSEQUENT EVENT OR EVENTS OF DEFAULT TO CONFESS JUDGMENT AND TO BRING ONE OR MORE FURTHER ACTIONS TO RECOVER POSSESSION OF THE PROPERTY. IN ANY SUCH ACTION, A COPY OF THIS INSTRUMENT, VERIFIED BY AFFIDAVIT BY SOMEONE ON BEHALF OF LENDER, MAY BE FILED, IN WHICH EVENT IT SHALL NOT BE NECESSARY TO FILE THE ORIGINAL AS A WARRANT OF ATTORNEY, ANY LAW OR RULE OF COURT TO THE CONTRARY NOTWITHSTANDING. THE RIGHT SET FORTH HEREIN SHALL NOT MERGE WITH ANY JUDGMENT OBTAINED ON THE OBLIGATIONS OR THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS. THIS WARRANT OF ATTORNEY SHALL BE EFFECTIVE ONLY AFTER THE OCCURRENCE OF AN EVENT OF DEFAULT.
BORROWER CONFIRMS TO LENDER THAT (1) THIS INSTRUMENT AND THE FOREGOING WARRANT OF ATTORNEY HAVE BEEN NEGOTIATED AND AGREED UPON IN A COMMERCIAL CONTEXT; (2) BORROWER IS A BUSINESS ENTITY AND ITS PRINCIPALS ARE KNOWLEDGEABLE IN COMMERCIAL MATTERS; (3) BORROWER HAS CONSULTED WITH ITS OWN SEPARATE COUNSEL REGARDING THIS INSTRUMENT; (4) BORROWER HAS AGREED TO THE AFORESAID WARRANT OF ATTORNEY TO CONFESS JUDGMENT; AND (5) BORROWER UNDERSTANDS IT IS WAIVING CERTAIN RIGHTS WHICH IT WOULD OTHERWISE POSSESS. JUDGMENT MAY BE ENTERED WITHOUT A HEARING OR NOTICE AND BORROWER KNOWINGLY HAS WAIVED NOTICE AND A HEARING PRIOR TO THE ENTRY OF A JUDGMENT BY CONFESSION.”
Section 6.04 Open-End Mortgage. This Instrument is an Open-End Mortgage as defined in Section 8143(f) of Title 42 of the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes (“Pa.C.S.”), and as such, is entitled to the benefits of 42 Pa.C.S. §8143 et seq., shall secure future advances and shall have lien priority in accordance with the
13
provisions of 42 Pa.C.S. §§8143 and 8144. The maximum amount of Indebtedness (as defined in 42 Pa. C.S. §8143, which term excludes interest and excludes the protective advances and expenses referred to in the immediately following sentence) outstanding at any time that is secured hereby is double the [aggregate] face amount of the Note; however, Lender shall not be obligated to advance any principal in excess of that stated in the Note. This Instrument also secures, and the Note evidences the obligation of Borrower to repay, (i) all advances made after the date hereof with respect to the Property for the payment of real estate taxes, water and sewer rents, assessments, maintenance charges, insurance premiums or costs incurred for the protection of the Property or the lien of this Instrument, (ii) all costs and expenses incurred by Lender by reason of an Event of Default, and (iii) all advances made by Lender to enable completion of construction of improvements to the Property. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the maximum extent permitted by law, Borrower hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives its right to submit a notice to Lender under 42 Pa.C.S. §8143(c). In addition to the other remedies available under the Documents, any advances made after receipt of any such notice, whether or not made pursuant to 42 Pa. C.S. §8143 and/or §8144, shall be secured hereby and shall relate back to the date when this Instrument was left for recording with the recorder of deeds. In the event any person or entity shall submit a notice to Lender under 42 Pa.C.S. §8143(b), in addition to the other remedies available under the Documents, Borrower shall have the lien or encumbrance which is the subject of such notice removed of record in accordance with this Instrument; and any advances made by Lender after receipt of any such notice whether or not made under 42 Pa.C.S. §8143(b), shall be deemed to be obligatory advances made under, shall be secured hereby, and shall relate back to the date when this Instrument was left for recording with the recorder of deeds. By placing or accepting any such lien or encumbrance against any or all of the Property, the holder thereof shall be deemed to have agreed, to the maximum extent permitted by law, that its lien or encumbrance shall be subject and subordinate in lien priority to this Instrument and to any subsequent advances made under the Documents, to all accrued and unpaid interest and to all other sums secured hereby.
Section 6.05 Purchase Money Mortgage. This Instrument is a “purchase money mortgage” within the meaning of 42 Pa. C.S. §8141, as amended from time to time.
