(a) If an Event of Default or an Note Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing, then and in every such case the Mortgagee may at any
time, by written notice or notices to the Company, declare all amounts due under

annul its declaration and its consequences; but no such rescission or annulment
shall extend to or affect any subsequent Default, Event of Default or Note Event
of Default or impair any right consequent thereon. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the existence and continuation of the Events of Default specifically
identified on Exhibit B to the Note shall not cause the amounts owing hereunder
to become due and payable.;
