BORROWER FURTHER agrees as follows:
ARTICLE I
AGREEMENTS
SECTION 1.1 PERFORMANCE OF OBLIGATIONS; INCORPORATION BY REFERENCE.
Borrower shall pay and perform the Obligations. Time is of the essence hereof.
All of the covenants, obligations, agreements, warranties and representations of
Borrower contained in the Note and the other Loan Documents and all of the terms
and provisions thereof, are hereby incorporated herein and made a part hereof by
reference as if fully set forth herein.
SECTION 1.2 FURTHER ASSURANCES. If Lender requests, Borrower shall sign
and deliver and cause to be recorded as Lender shall direct any further
mortgages, instruments of further assurance, certificates and other documents as
Lender reasonably may consider necessary or desirable in order to perfect,
continue and preserve the Obligations and Lender's rights, title, estate, liens
and interests under the Loan Documents. Borrower further agrees to pay to
Lender, upon demand, all costs and expenses incurred by Lender in connection
with the preparation, execution, recording, filing and refiling of any such
documents, including attorneys' fees and title insurance costs.
SECTION 1.3 SALE, TRANSFER, ENCUMBRANCE. If Borrower sells, conveys,
transfers or otherwise disposes of, or encumbers, any part of its interest in
the Mortgaged Property, whether voluntarily, involuntarily or by operation of
law, without the prior written consent of Lender, Lender shall have the option
to declare the Obligations immediately due and payable without notice. Included
within the foregoing actions requiring prior written consent of Lender are: (a)
sale by deed or contract for deed; (b) mortgaging or granting a lien on the
Mortgaged Property; and (c) a transfer which changes the persons in control of
Borrower or which transfers more than 25% of the beneficial interest in
Borrower, except for transfers to related or affiliated entities. Borrower
shall give notice of any proposed action to Lender at least thirty (30) days
prior to taking such action. Borrower shall pay all costs and expenses incurred
by Lender in evaluating any such action. Lender may condition such consent upon
modification of the Loan Documents or payment of fees. No such action shall
relieve Borrower from liability for the Obligations. The consent by Lender to
any action shall not constitute a waiver of the necessity of such consent to any
subsequent action.
SECTION 1.4 INSURANCE. Borrower shall obtain, maintain and keep in full
force and effect (and upon request of Lender shall furnish to Lender copies of)
policies of insurance as described in, and meeting the requirements set forth
in, Exhibit C attached hereto, and upon request of Lender shall furnish to
Lender proof of
-4-
payment of all premiums for such insurance. At least ten (10) days prior to the
termination of any such coverage, Borrower shall provide Lender with evidence
satisfactory to Lender that such coverage will be renewed or replaced upon
termination with insurance that complies with the provisions of this Section.
Borrower, at its sole cost and expense, from time to time when Lender shall so
request, will provide Lender with evidence, in a form acceptable to Lender, of
the full insurable replacement cost of the Mortgaged Property. All property
(including boiler and machinery) and liability insurance policies maintained by
Borrower pursuant to this Section shall (i) include effective waivers by the
insurer of all claims for insurance premiums against Lender, and (ii) provide
that any losses shall be payable notwithstanding (a) any act of negligence by
Borrower or Lender, (b) any foreclosure or other proceedings or notice of
foreclosure sale relating to the Mortgaged Property, or (c) any release from
liability or waiver of subrogation rights granted by the insured. All insurance
policies maintained by Borrower pursuant to the foregoing provisions shall
respond on a primary basis relative to any other insurance carried by Lender in
the event of loss. Insurance terms not otherwise defined herein shall be
interpreted consistent with insurance industry usage.
SECTION 1.5 TAXES, LIENS AND CLAIMS, UTILITIES. Borrower, at least five
(5) days before any penalty attaches thereto, shall pay and discharge, or cause
to be paid and discharged, all taxes, assessments and governmental charges and
levies (collectively "Impositions") imposed upon or against the Mortgaged
Property or the Rents, or upon or against the Obligations, or upon or against
the interest of Lender in the Mortgaged Property or the Obligations, except
Impositions measured by the income of Lender. Borrower shall provide evidence
of such payment at Lender's request. Borrower shall keep the Mortgaged Property
free and clear of all liens, encumbrances, easements, covenants, conditions,
restrictions and reservations (collectively "Liens") except those listed on
Exhibit A attached hereto (the "Permitted Encumbrances"). Borrower shall pay or
cause to be paid when due all charges or fees for utilities and services
supplied to the Mortgaged Property. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained in this Section, Borrower shall not be required to pay or discharge
any Imposition or Lien so long as Borrower shall in good faith, and after giving
notice to Lender, contest the same by appropriate legal proceedings. If
Borrower contests any Imposition or Lien against the Mortgaged Property,
Borrower shall provide such security to Lender as Lender shall reasonably
require against loss or impairment of Borrower's ownership of or Lender's lien
on the Mortgaged Property and shall in any event pay such Imposition or Lien
before loss or impairment occurs.
SECTION 1.6 ESCROW PAYMENTS. If requested by Lender, Borrower shall
deposit with Lender monthly on the same date as payments are due under the Note
the amount reasonably estimated by Lender to be necessary to enable Lender to
pay, at least five (5) days before they become due, all Impositions against the
Mortgaged Property and the premiums upon all insurance required hereby to be
maintained
-5-
with respect to the Mortgaged Property, provided, however, that Lender shall not
request such escrow deposits until after an Event of Default hereunder. All
funds so deposited shall secure the Obligations. Such deposits shall be held by
Lender, or its nominee, in a non-interest bearing account and may be commingled
with other funds. Such deposits shall be used to pay such Impositions and
insurance premiums when due. Any excess sums so deposited shall be retained by
Lender and shall be applied to pay said items in the future, unless the
Obligations have been paid and performed in full, in which case all excess sums
so paid shall be refunded to Borrower. Upon the occurrence of an Event of
Default, Lender may apply any funds in said account against the Obligations in
such order as Lender may determine.
SECTION 1.7 MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR; COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS. Borrower shall
cause the Mortgaged Property to be operated, maintained and repaired in safe and
good repair, working order and condition, reasonable wear and tear excepted;
shall not commit or permit waste thereof; except as provided in any Loan
Document, shall not remove, demolish or substantially alter the design or
structural character of any Improvements without the prior written consent of
Lender; shall complete or cause to be completed forthwith any Improvements which
are now or may hereafter be under construction upon the Land; shall comply or
cause compliance with all laws, statutes, ordinances and codes, and governmental
rules, regulations and requirements, applicable to the Mortgaged Property or the
manner of using or operating the same, and with any covenants, conditions,
restrictions and reservations affecting the title to the Mortgaged Property, and
with the terms of all insurance policies relating to the Mortgaged Property; and
shall obtain and maintain in full force and effect all consents, permits and
licenses necessary for the use and operation of the Mortgaged Property.
SECTION 1.8 LEASES.
(a) Borrower shall not enter into or amend any Lease without Lender's
prior written consent, and shall furnish to Lender, upon execution, a complete
and fully executed copy of each Lease. Borrower shall provide Lender with a
copy of each proposed Lease requiring the consent of Lender and with any
information requested by Lender regarding the proposed Tenant thereunder.
Lender may declare each Lease to be prior or subordinate to this Mortgage, at
Lender's option.
(b) Borrower shall, at its cost and expense, perform each obligation to be
performed by the landlord under each Lease; not borrow against, pledge or
further assign any rents or other payments due thereunder;not permit the
prepayment of any rents or other payments due for more than thirty (30) days in
advance; and not permit any Tenant to assign its Lease or sublet the premises
covered by its Lease, unless required to do so by the terms thereof and then
only if such assignment does
-6-
not work to relieve the Tenant of any liability for performance of its
obligations thereunder.
(c) If any Tenant shall default under its Lease, Borrower shall, in the
ordinary course of business, exercise sound business judgment with respect to
such default, but may discount, compromise, forgive or waive claims or discharge
the Tenant from its obligations under the Lease or terminate or accept a
surrender of the Lease.
(d) If Borrower fails to perform any obligations of Borrower under any
Lease or if Lender becomes aware of or is notified by any Tenant of a failure on
the part of Borrower to so perform, Lender may, but shall not be obligated to,
without waiving or releasing Borrower from any obligation in this Agreement or
any of the other Loan Documents, remedy such failure, and Borrower agrees to
repay upon demand all sums incurred by Lender in remedying any such failure,
together with interest thereon from the date incurred at the Default Rate (as
defined in the Note).
(e) For purposes of this Mortgage, the following terms shall have the
following meanings:
(i) "LEASE": Any lease or other document or agreement, written or
oral, permitting any Person to use or occupy any part of the Mortgaged Property.

the Mortgaged Property pursuant to a Lease.

directors, officers, agents and employees (collectively the "Indemnified

damages, suits, claims, judgments, penalties, fines, liabilities, costs and
expenses (collectively a "Loss") by reason of, or on account of, or in
connection with the construction, reconstruction or alteration of the Mortgaged
Property, or any accident, injury, death or damage to any person or property
occurring in, on or about the Mortgaged Property or any street, drive, sidewalk,
curb or passageway adjacent thereto, provided such Loss is not caused by the
gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Indemnified Parties. The
indemnity contained in this Section shall include costs of defense of any such
claim asserted against an Indemnified Party, including reasonable attorneys'
fees. The indemnity contained in this Section shall survive
-7-
payment and performance of the Obligations and satisfaction and release of this
Mortgage and any foreclosure thereof or acquisition of title by deed in lieu of
foreclosure.
SECTION 1.10 APPRAISALS. Lender shall have the right from time to
time, but not more often than once during any twelve (12)-month period, to
obtain an appraisal of the Mortgaged Property in form and substance satisfactory
to Lender and prepared by an independent MAI appraiser selected by Lender.
Borrower shall reimburse Lender for the cost incurred for any such appraisal
within ten (10) days following demand therefor by Lender, if Lender has reason
to believe that the value of the Mortgaged Property has declined materially, and
such appraisal determines that the then current principal amount of the Note
exceeds 75% of the value of the Mortgaged Property.

ARTICLE III
CASUALTY; CONDEMNATION
SECTION 3.1 CASUALTY, REPAIR, PROOF OF LOSS. If any portion of the
Mortgaged Property shall be damaged or destroyed by any cause (a "Casualty"),
Borrower shall:

(b) promptly commence and diligently pursue to completion (in
accordance with plans and specifications approved by Lender) the restoration,
repair and rebuilding of the Mortgaged Property as nearly as possible to its
value, condition and character immediately prior to the Casualty; and
(c) if the Casualty is covered by insurance, immediately make proof
of loss and collect all insurance proceeds, all such proceeds to be payable to
Lender or as Lender shall direct. If an Event of Default shall be in existence,
or if Borrower shall fail to provide notice to Lender of filing proof of loss,
or if Borrower shall not be diligently proceeding, in Lender's reasonable
opinion, to collect such insurance proceeds, then Lender may, but is not
obligated to, make proof of loss, and is authorized, but is not obligated, to
settle any claim with respect thereto, and to collect the proceeds thereof.
Borrower shall not accept any settlement of an insurance claim, the result of
which shall be a payment which is $10,000 or more less than the full amount of
the claim, without the prior written consent of Lender.
SECTION 3.2 USE OF INSURANCE PROCEEDS. Lender shall make the net
insurance proceeds received by it (after reimbursement of Lender's out-of pocket
costs of collecting and disbursing the same) available to Borrower to pay the
cost of restoration, repair and rebuilding of the Mortgaged Property, subject to
the following conditions:
(a) There shall be no Event of Default in existence at the time of
any disbursement of the insurance proceeds.

the cost of restoration, repair and rebuilding is and will be equal to or less

Lender.
(c) Lender shall have determined, in its reasonable discretion, that
the restoration, repair and rebuilding can be completed in accordance with plans
and specifications approved by Lender (such approval not to be unreasonably
withheld), in accordance with codes and ordinances and in accordance with the
terms, and
-9-
within the time requirements in order to prevent termination, of any Lease, and
in any event not less than six (6) months prior to the Maturity Date.
(d) All funds shall be disbursed, at Lender's option, in accordance
with Lender's customary disbursement procedures for construction loans.

right to use the insurance proceeds to prepay the Loan in accordance with the
Note, and if the Loan is prepaid in full, Borrower shall not be required to
perform under Section 3.1(b) of this Mortgage. If any insurance proceeds shall
remain after completion of the restoration, repair and rebuilding of the
Mortgaged Property, they shall be disbursed to Borrower, or at the Lender's
discretion, used to prepay the Loan in accordance with the Note.

document received by Borrower in connection with the Condemnation to Lender
promptly after receipt; and
(b) diligently pursue any negotiation and prosecute any proceeding in
connection with the Condemnation at Borrower's expense. If an Event of Default
shall be in existence, or if Borrower, in Lender's reasonable opinion, shall not
be diligently negotiating or prosecuting the claim, Lender is authorized, but
not required, to negotiate and prosecute the claim and appear at any hearing for
itself and on behalf of Borrower and to compromise or settle all compensation
for the Condemnation. Lender shall not be liable to Borrower for any failure by
Lender to collect or to exercise diligence in collecting any such compensation.
Borrower shall not compromise or settle any claim resulting from the
Condemnation if such settlement shall result in payment of $10,000 or more less
than Lender's reasonable estimate of the damages therefrom. All awards shall be
paid to Lender.
SECTION 3.4 USE OF CONDEMNATION PROCEEDS. Lender shall make the net
proceeds of any Condemnation received by it (after reimbursement of Lender's
out-of-pocket costs of collecting and disbursing the same) available to Borrower
for restoration, repair and rebuilding of the Mortgaged Property, subject to the
following conditions:
-10-
(a) There shall be no Event of Default in existence at the time of
any disbursement of the condemnation proceeds.
(b) Lender shall determined, in its reasonable discretion, that the
cost of restoration, repair and rebuilding is and will be equal to or less than
the amount of condemnation proceeds and other funds deposited by Borrower with
Lender.

the restoration, repair and rebuilding can be completed in accordance with plans
and specifications approved by Lender (such approval not to be unreasonably
withheld), in accordance with codes and ordinances and in accordance with the
terms, and within the time requirements in order to prevent termination, of any
Lease, and in any event not less than six (6) months prior to the Maturity Date.
(d) All funds shall be disbursed, at Lender's option, in accordance
with Lender's customary disbursement procedures for construction loans.
(e) The Condemnation shall have occurred more than twelve (12) months
prior to the Maturity Date.
If any of these conditions shall not be satisfied, then Lender shall have the
right to use the condemnation proceeds to prepay the Loan in accordance with the
Note. If any condemnation proceeds shall remain after completion of the
restoration, repair and rebuilding of the Mortgaged Property, they shall be
disbursed to Borrower, or at Lender's discretion, used to prepay the Loan in
accordance with the Note.

protect and enforce its rights by one or more of the following remedies:
(a) LENDER SHALL HAVE THE RIGHT TO BRING SUIT either for damages, for

by law, Borrower to remain liable
-13-
for any deficiency. Said sale may be as one tract or otherwise, at the sole
option of Lender. In the event of any sale of the Mortgaged Property pursuant

its successors or assigns, may become the purchaser, and for the purpose of
making settlement for or payment of the purchase price, shall be entitled to
deliver over and use the Note and any claims for interest accrued and unpaid
thereon, together with all other sums, with interest, advanced or secured hereby
and unpaid hereunder, in order that there may be credited as paid on the
purchase price the total amount of the Obligations then due, including principal
and interest on the Note and all other sums, with interest, advanced or secured
hereby and unpaid hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents.
(c) LENDER SHALL HAVE THE RIGHT TO OBTAIN THE APPOINTMENT OF A
RECEIVER at any time after the occurrence of an Event of Default. Lender may
apply for the appointment of a receiver to the district court for the county
where the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof is located, by an action
separate from any foreclosure of this Mortgage pursuant to Minnesota Statutes

foreclosure action under said Chapter 581 (it being agreed that the existence of
a foreclosure pursuant to said Chapter 580 or a foreclosure action pursuant to
said Chapter 581 is not a prerequisite to any action for a receiver hereunder).
Lender shall be entitled to the appointment of a receiver without regard to
waste, adequacy of the security or solvency of Borrower. The receiver, who
shall be an experienced property manager, shall collect (until the Obligations
are fully paid and satisfied and, in the case of a foreclosure sale, during the
entire redemption period) the Rents, and shall manage the Mortgaged Property,
execute Leases within or beyond the period of the receivership if approved by
the court and apply all rents, profits and other income collected by him in the
following order:
(i) to the payment of all reasonable fees of the receiver, if
any, approved by the court;
(ii) to the repayment of tenant security deposits, with
interest thereon, as required by Minnesota Statutes, Section 504.20;
(iii) to the payment when due of delinquent or current real
estate taxes or special assessments with respect to the Mortgaged Property, or
the periodic escrow for the payment of the same;
(iv) to the payment when due of premiums for insurance of the

may be exercised from time to time and as often and in such order as may be
deemed expedient by Lender and the exercise or the beginning of the exercise of
one right shall not be deemed a waiver of the right to exercise at the same time
or thereafter any other right. Lender shall have all rights and remedies
available under the law in effect now and/or at the time such rights and
remedies are sought to be enforced, whether or not they are available under the
law in effect on the date hereof.

Mortgage shall be immediately due and payable by Borrower, with interest thereon

SECTION 4.4 RESTORATION OF POSITION. In case Lender shall have
proceeded to enforce any right under this Mortgage by foreclosure, sale, entry
or otherwise, and such proceedings shall have been discontinued or abandoned for
any reason or shall have been determined adversely, then, and in every such
case, Borrower and Lender shall be restored to their former positions and rights
hereunder with respect to the Mortgaged Property subject to the lien hereof.
SECTION 4.5 MARSHALLING. Borrower, for itself and on behalf of all
Persons which may claim under Borrower, hereby waives all requirements of law
relating to the marshalling of assets, if any, which would be applicable in

realize upon any portion of the Mortgaged Property before selling or realizing
upon any other portion thereof.
SECTION 4.6 WAIVERS. No waiver of any provision hereof shall be
implied from the conduct of the parties. Any such waiver must be in writing and
must be signed by the party against which such waiver is sought to be enforced.
The waiver or release of any breach of the provisions set forth herein to be
kept and performed shall not be a waiver or release of any preceding or
subsequent breach of the same or any other provision. No receipt of partial
payment after acceleration of any of the Obligations shall waive the
acceleration. No payment by Borrower or receipt by Lender of a lesser amount
than the full amount secured hereby shall be deemed to be other than on account

any check or any letter accompanying any check or payment be deemed an accord
and satisfaction, and Lender may accept any check or payment without prejudice
to Lender's right to recover the balance of such sums or to pursue any other
remedy provided in this Mortgage. The consent by Lender to any matter or event
requiring such consent shall not constitute a waiver of the necessity for such
consent to any subsequent matter or event.
SECTION 4.7 LENDER'S RIGHT TO CURE DEFAULTS. If Borrower shall fail
to comply with any of the terms of the Loan Documents with respect to the
procuring of insurance, the payment of taxes, assessments and other charges, the
keeping of the Mortgaged Property in repair, or any other term contained herein
or in any of the other Loan Documents, Lender may make advances to perform the
same without releasing Borrower from any of the Obligations. Borrower agrees to
repay upon demand all sums so advanced and all sums expended by Lender in
connection with such performance, including without limitation attorneys' fees,
with interest at the Default Rate set forth in the Note from the dates such
advances are made, and all sums so advanced and/or expenses incurred, with
interest, shall be secured

hereby, but no such advance and/or incurring of expense by Lender, shall be
deemed to relieve Borrower from any default hereunder or under any of the other
Loan Documents, or to release Borrower from any of the Obligations.
SECTION 4.8 SUITS AND PROCEEDINGS. Lender shall have the power and
authority, upon prior notice to Borrower, to institute and maintain any suits
and proceedings as Lender may deem advisable to (i) prevent any impairment of
the Mortgaged Property by any act which may be unlawful or by any violation of
this Mortgage, (ii) preserve or protect its interest in the Mortgaged Property,
or (iii) restrain the enforcement of or compliance with any legislation or other
governmental enactment, rule or order that may be unconstitutional or otherwise
invalid, if, in the sole opinion of Lender, the enforcement of or compliance
with such enactment, rule or order might impair the security hereunder or be
prejudicial to Lender's interest.
