3. Payment of Taxes and Insurance Premiums. Mortgagor and Mortgagee acknowledge and agree that all rents, revenues, license fees, income, issues, profits, and proceeds now or hereafter to be derived and received by Mortgagor from its ownership of the Premises are to be paid directly into a “Lockbox Account” to be maintained by Mortgagee throughout the terms of the Loans for the benefit of the Lenders pursuant to the terms, conditions, and provisions of that certain Lockbox Agreement dated of even date herewith, executed by and between Mortgagor and Mortgagee (hereinafter said Lockbox Agreement, as it may be from time to time amended, modified, extended, renewed, substituted, and/or supplemented, shall be referred to as the “Lockbox Agreement”). The monies collected and held under the Lockbox Agreement are intended to be applied, in part, to the payment of all real estate taxes and insurance premiums required pursuant to Paragraphs 4 and 7 below. In the event there is any shortfall from the monies to be disbursed under the Lockbox Agreement, Mortgagor shall pay to Mortgagee, at least thirty (30) days before any delinquency or any penalty or interest attaches, such amounts as are necessary in order to allow Mortgagee to pay all general taxes, special taxes, special assessments, water charges, sewer service charges, insurance premiums, and all other charges against the Premises of any nature whatsoever when due. In addition, (a) Mortgagor acknowledges the fact that the tax parcel identification number currently relating to the Premises also relates to other real property that is being sold by Mortgagor on the date hereof and (b) Mortgagor agrees to diligently pursue and promptly obtain a tax parcel number that relates solely to the Premises.
4. Tax Deposits. Pursuant to the terms of the Lockbox Agreement, Mortgagor covenants and agrees to deposit into a reserve account maintained by Mortgagee, commencing on the date of disbursement of the Loans and on the first day of each month following the month in which said disbursement occurred until the Indebtedness is fully paid, a sum equal to one-twelfth (1/12th) of the real estate taxes on the Premises next to become due, as estimated by Mortgagee, so that the Payee will have sufficient funds on hand to pay all such real estate taxes thirty (30) days prior to the due date thereof. Such deposits are to be held without any allowance of interest (unless local law requires otherwise) and are to be used for the payment of taxes and assessments (general and special) on the Premises next due and payable when they become due. If the funds so deposited exceed the amount required to pay such items hereinabove mentioned for any year, the excess shall be applied on a subsequent deposit or deposits. Said deposits need not be kept separate and apart from any other funds of Mortgagee.
If any such taxes or assessments (general or special) shall be levied, charged, assessed or imposed upon or for the Premises, or any portion thereof, and if such taxes or assessments shall also be a levy, charge, assessment or imposition upon or for any other property not covered by the lien of this Mortgage, then the computation of any amount to be deposited under this Paragraph 4 shall be based upon the entire amount of such taxes or assessments, and Mortgagor shall not have the right to apportion the amount of any such taxes or assessments for the purposes of such computation.
5. Mortgagee’s Interest In and Use of Deposits. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Mortgagee may at its option, without being required to do so, apply any monies at the time on deposit pursuant to Paragraphs 4 and 7 hereof, on any of Mortgagor’s obligations herein or in the Notes or any of the Loan Documents contained, in such order and manner as Mortgagee may elect. When the Indebtedness has been fully paid, any remaining deposits shall be paid to Mortgagor or to the then owner or owners of the Premises. A security interest within the meaning of the Uniform Commercial Code as in

effect in the State of Illinois, as amended and/or modified from time to time (hereinafter referred to as the “UCC”) is hereby granted to Mortgagee in and to any monies at any time on deposit pursuant to Paragraphs 4 and 7 hereof and such monies and all of Mortgagor’s right, title and interest therein are hereby assigned to Mortgagee, all as additional security for the Indebtedness and shall in the absence of the occurrence of an Event of Default be applied by Mortgagee for the purposes for which made hereunder and shall not be subject to the direction or control of Mortgagor. Mortgagee shall not be liable for any act or omission taken in good faith or pursuant to the instruction of any party but only for its willful misconduct.

Insurance. |
(a) Until the Indebtedness is fully paid, the Improvements and all fixtures, equipment and property therein contained or installed, including, without limitation, all personal property and easily removable real estate items or fixtures serving as security for the Loans, shall be kept unceasingly insured against loss and damage by such hazards, casualties and contingencies in such amounts and for such periods as may from time to time be required by Mortgagee in its normal business practice applicable to all loans of similar size. All insurance shall be satisfactory to Mortgagee in all respects, and shall conform in all respects to Mortgagee’s standard insurance criteria, and shall be written in policies and by insurance companies approved by Mortgagee which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld so long as A.M. Best Company’s Key Rating Guide Class rating of at least A X is maintained and the policy otherwise conforms to the terms hereof. All policies of insurance and renewals thereof shall contain standard noncontributory mortgagee loss payable clauses to Mortgagee, shall not contain a co-insurance clause or other clause limiting the amount of coverage under any conditions, and shall provide for at least thirty (30) days prior written notice of modification, termination, non-renewal, or cancellation to Mortgagee as well as a waiver of subrogation endorsement, all as required by Mortgagee, in form and content acceptable to Mortgagee. All policies (or certified copies or certificates thereof evidencing all required coverage) and original XXXXX 27/28 and XXXXX 25 (as to liability only) Certificates shall, with all premiums fully paid, be delivered to Mortgagee as issued at least thirty (30) days before the expiration of existing policies and shall be held by Mortgagee (or such other entity as designated by Mortgagee) until all sums hereby secured are fully paid. Mortgagee shall be named as certificate holder and first loss payee/mortgagee for the benefit of Lenders as to any property or casualty insurance policies, and Mortgagee for the benefit of the Lenders (and, if required by any Lender, such Lender) shall be named as an additional insured as to any liability insurance policies. The Mortgagor covenants and agrees to pay promptly when due all premiums for said insurance throughout the term of the Loans. Upon request by Mortgagee, but not more frequently than annually, Mortgagor shall furnish Mortgagee evidence of the replacement cost of the Improvements. In case of sale pursuant to a foreclosure of this Mortgage or other transfer of title to the Premises and extinguishment of the Indebtedness, complete title to all policies, other than liability insurance policies, held by Mortgagee and all prepaid or unearned premiums thereon shall pass to and vest in the purchaser or mortgagee/beneficiary. Mortgagee shall not by reason of accepting, rejecting, approving or obtaining insurance incur any liability for payment of losses.
(b) Without in any way limiting the generality of the foregoing, Mortgagor covenants and agrees to maintain insurance coverage on the Premises which shall include: (i) all risk coverage insurance (including vandalism and malicious mischief) for an amount at least equal to the amount of the Loans and not less than one hundred percent (100%) of the full replacement cost of the Improvements, written on a replacement cost basis and with a replacement cost endorsement (without depreciation), an increased cost of construction endorsement, and an agreed amount endorsement pertaining to the co-insurance clause (with inflation guard provision), a waiver of any terrorism coverage exclusion, and containing a mortgagee clause in Mortgagee’s favor; and if at any time a dispute arises with respect to replacement

(c) Mortgagor shall not take out separate insurance concurrent in form or contributing in the event of loss with that required to be maintained hereunder.
(d) Mortgagor hereby acknowledges that the following notice by Mortgagee is required by and given in full compliance with the Illinois Collateral Protection Act, 815 ILCS 180/10 and 180/15:
(i) Unless you provide us with evidence of the insurance coverage required by this Mortgage, Mortgagee may purchase insurance at your expense to collect our interest on the Premises. This insurance may, but need not, protect your interest. The coverage that Mortgagee purchases may not pay any claim that you make or any claim that is made against you in connection with the Premises. You may later cancel any insurance purchased by us, but only after providing Mortgagee with evidence that you have obtained insurance as required by this Mortgage. If Mortgagee purchases insurance for the Premises, you will be responsible for the cost of that insurance, including interest and any other charges Mortgagee may impose in connection with the placement of the insurance, until the effective date of the cancellation or expiration of the insurance. The cost of the insurance may be added to your total outstanding balance or obligation. The cost of insurance may be more than the cost of insurance you may be able to obtain on your own.
(ii) In the event Mortgagee places such insurance, within thirty (30) days following placement of collateral protection insurance, Mortgagee shall mail a notice, in substantially the following form, to Mortgagor:
“Your credit agreement with us requires you to maintain adequate insurance on your collateral until you pay off your loan. You have not given us proof that you have
- 9 –
[MORTGAGE, ASSIGNMENT OF LEASES, SECURITY AGREEMENT AND FIXTURE FILING]
ING No. 28193
GECC No. 690081960
adequate insurance on your collateral. Under the terms of your credit agreement, we have purchased insurance at your expense to protect our interests in your collateral.
The insurance we purchased will pay claims made by us as the creditor. The insurance we purchased may not pay any claims made by you or against you in connection with your collateral.
You are responsible for the costs of this insurance, including interest and any other charges we may impose in connection with the purchase of this insurance. The costs of this insurance may be more than insurance you can buy on your own.
You still may obtain insurance of your own choosing on the collateral. If you provide us with proof that you have obtained adequate insurance on your collateral, we will cancel the insurance that we purchased and refund or credit any unearned premiums to you.
If, within thirty (30) days after the date of this notice was sent to you, you provide us with proof that you had adequate insurance on your collateral as of the date we also purchased insurance and that you continue to have the insurance that you purchased yourself, we will cancel the insurance that we purchased without charging you any costs, interest or other charges in connection with the insurance that we purchased.”
7. Insurance Premium Deposits. It is further covenanted and agreed that for the purpose of providing funds with which to pay the premiums as the same become due on the policies of insurance as herein covenanted to be furnished by Mortgagor, Mortgagor shall deposit into a reserve account maintained by Mortgagee on the date of disbursement of the proceeds of the Loans and on the first day of each month following the month in which said disbursement occurred, an amount equal to one-twelfth (1/12th) of the annual insurance premiums to be carried on the Premises so that Mortgagee will have sufficient funds on hand to pay all such insurance premiums thirty (30) days prior to the due date thereof. No interest shall be allowed to Mortgagor on account of any deposit or deposits made hereunder and said deposits need not be kept separate and apart from any other funds of Mortgagee.

Adjustment of Losses with Insurer and Application of Proceeds of Insurance. |
(a) In case of loss or damage by fire or other casualty, Mortgagor shall immediately give Mortgagee and the insurance companies that have insured against such risks written notice of such occurrence. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, all insurance proceeds arising from a fire or other casualty affecting the Premises shall be applied and disbursed in accordance with that certain Declaration of Covenants, Conditions, Restrictions and Easements for 000 Xxxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxxx dated on or about the date hereof, executed by Mortgagor and recorded or to be recorded on or about the date hereof in the Office of the Recorder of Deeds of Xxxx County, Illinois, as the same may be amended and/or modified from time to time with the prior express written consent of Mortgagee (hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Declaration”). If requested by Mortgagee, Mortgagor shall obtain or cause to be obtained an estimate of the cost of repair and restoration, as provided in Section 9.4 of the Declaration (hereinafter referred to as a “Cost Estimate”). Mortgagor shall perform all duties and obligations and shall comply with all provisions of the Declaration.
(b) If no Event of Default then exists hereunder, in the exercise of its rights and responsibilities under the Declaration, Mortgagor shall have the sole and exclusive right to settle, compromise or adjust any claim under insurance policies to the extent the amount thereof does not exceed Five Hundred Thousand and 00/100 ($500,000.00) Dollars; provided that, if an Event of Default exists

ING No. 28193
GECC No. 690081960
hereunder or if the extent of damage exceeds Five Hundred Thousand and 00/100 ($500,000.00) Dollars, as determined by the applicable Cost Estimate, then, in the exercise of Mortgagor’s rights and responsibilities under the Declaration to settle and adjust claims and losses, all claims for losses in excess of said amount shall be settled, compromised, or adjusted only with the mutual agreement of Mortgagor and Mortgagee and Mortgagor shall not exercise such right to settle and adjust such claims and losses without the prior express written consent of Mortgagee. Insurance proceeds shall be deposited with the Depository and used for the repair and restoration of the Premises in accordance with the provisions of the Declaration; provided that, notwithstanding the terms, conditions, and provisions of the Declaration to the contrary, (i) Mortgagor shall not approve the appointment of any Depository without the prior express written consent of Mortgagee and (ii) Mortgagee shall cause all proceeds of insurance dispersed by the Depository to be funded through a construction escrow with Chicago Title Insurance Company, or such other title insurer as Mortgagor shall determine (hereinafter referred to as the “Title Insurer”), subject to Mortgagee’s prior express written approval, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed, which escrow agreement shall require escrowee to provide current dated endorsement(s) to the Mortgagee’s title insurance policy, free and clear of all liens and encumbrances.
Mortgagor shall have the right to enter into contracts for repair and restoration of the Premises and the “Hotel Property” (as such term is defined in the Declaration) in accordance with the provisions of the Declaration; provided that Mortgagor shall not exercise such right to enter into any contract for the repair or restoration of the Premises or the Hotel Property, without the prior express written consent of Mortgagee: (1) if such construction contract has a price in excess of the net proceeds of insurance plus the deductible deposited with the Depository, and/or (2) if the cost of rebuilding, repairing or restoring of the Improvements and the Hotel Property exceeds the sum of Two Million and 00/100 ($2,000,000.00) Dollars, until Mortgagee has approved in writing the form of the construction contract and the plans and specifications for the proposed rebuilding and restoration, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. Mortgagor shall not permit any contractor to commence work until “Hotel Owner” (as such term is defined in the Declaration) and Mortgagee shall have deposited funds or other security as permitted pursuant to Section 9.3 of the Declaration with the Depository, all as required pursuant to the Declaration.
In the event that: (A) any excess insurance proceeds are made available to Mortgagor pursuant to Section 9.5 of the Declaration (following application of insurance proceeds as provided in the Declaration), or (B) Mortgagor is not required by the terms of the Declaration to repair and restore the Premises, then, after deducting any expenses incurred in the collection of such insurance proceeds, if requested by Mortgagor in writing within thirty (30) days after the proceeds of insurance covering such damage or destruction become available, such insurance proceeds shall be made available to Mortgagor for the purpose of paying any remaining, unpaid cost of rebuilding or restoring of the Improvements if (I) the Premises is capable of being restored to that condition which existed immediately prior to the damage or loss, (II) the insurance proceeds, together with all other funds which are to be provided by Mortgagor, are sufficient to restore the Premises to the condition which existed immediately prior to the damage or loss, (III) income from the Premises shall not be materially affected following the completion of the restoration or rebuilding; (IV) no Event of Default then exists hereunder or under any other Loan Document, and no circumstance or condition exists that would constitute an Event of Default upon the giving of notice or the passage of time, or both, (V) the rebuilding and restoration is reasonably estimated to be completed at least one hundred twenty (120) days prior to the “Maturity Date” or any “Call Date” (as such terms are defined in the respective Notes) which, in the case of a Call Date, has been exercised by Mortgagee; (VI) leases affecting any tenants in the Premises shall not be subject to cancellation or termination by the tenants thereunder or Mortgagor on account of the occurrence of the casualty or, if such leases with said tenants are subject to said cancellation or termination, then either the applicable tenants shall have waived in writing their right to cancel and/or terminate said leases or substitute tenants /font>

shall have been obtained in replacement of the tenants under said lease, such substitute tenants and the terms and provisions of such substitute leases being satisfactory to Mortgagee, in its sole and absolute discretion; and (VIII) written evidence is provided to Mortgagee demonstrating that Mortgagor’s then current /font>rental income insurance coverage extends at least three (3) months beyond the projected completion date for the restoration or rebuilding of the Premises (as determined by Mortgagee pursuant to a projected construction progress schedule submitted by Mortgagor).
In the event that Mortgagee makes said proceeds available to Mortgagor to pay the cost of rebuilding or restoring of the Improvements in accordance with the provisions of the foregoing paragraph, such proceeds shall be made available in the manner and under the conditions that Mortgagee may reasonably require to assure proper application of such proceeds and such proceeds shall, in the sole discretion of Mortgagee, be funded to contractors through a construction escrow with the Title Insurer. In the event such insurance proceeds are made available by Mortgagee, Mortgagor shall pay all out-of-pocket costs incurred by Mortgagee in connection with the application of such insurance proceeds (including but not limited to reasonable costs incurred by Mortgagee, and the Title Insurer or agent approved by Mortgagee in overseeing the disbursement of such insurance proceeds). The Improvements shall be restored or rebuilt so as to be of at least equal value and substantially the same character as prior to such damage or destruction.
If the proceeds are to be made available by Mortgagee to Mortgagor to pay the cost of said rebuilding or restoration, any surplus which may remain out of said insurance proceeds after payment of the costs of rebuilding or restoring the Premises shall, at the option of Mortgagee, be applied on account of the Indebtedness in the inverse order of maturity (without any prepayment premium) or be paid to any party entitled thereto under such conditions as Mortgagee may reasonably require. No interest shall be allowed to Mortgagor on any proceeds held by Mortgagee.
(c) Notwithstanding the terms, conditions, and provisions of Paragraph 8(b) above to the contrary, in the event the Premises are damaged by fire or other casualty which damage or loss exceeds ten percent (10%) of the then current replacement value of the Premises and Mortgagor is not required pursuant to the terms of the Declaration to repair and restore the Premises, then Mortgagee may, in its sole and absolute discretion, apply the insurance proceeds either (i) to reduce the Indebtedness, to be applied in accordance with Paragraph 8(d) below, or (ii) to the cost of restoring or rebuilding the damaged portion(s) of the Premises to a value, character, and condition substantially equivalent to that value, character, and condition prior to the occurrence of such loss or damage, all in accordance with Mortgagee’s standard construction loan disbursement conditions and requirements.
(d) In the event proceeds of insurance are not made available to Mortgagor for the purpose of paying the cost of the rebuilding or restoring of the Improvements in accordance with the terms of this Mortgage, Mortgagee, after deducting the costs of any collection, adjustment and compromise, shall apply such insurance proceeds in accordance with terms of the Notes upon the Indebtedness (without any prepayment premium, unless an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default based solely on the fact that a casualty has occurred) then exists, in which case with any applicable prepayment premium), provided that any amount so applied by Mortgagee in reduction of the outstanding principal balance of the Notes shall be credited to installments of principal in the inverse order of their maturity but no such application shall delay or postpone any installment payment of principal and interest under the Notes.
(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Mortgage, Mortgagor hereby acknowledges, covenants, and agrees that any rebuilding or restoration of the Premises permitted pursuant to this Mortgage shall be performed in accordance with the terms, conditions, and provisions of the Declaration and all applicable laws, including, without limitation, the Zoning Ordinance of the City of

(a) In connection with the payment of the Indebtedness secured hereby and for the faithful performance of the terms and conditions contained herein, Mortgagor has assigned to Mortgagee, by that certain Absolute Assignment of Rents and Leases #1 dated of even date herewith (hereinafter, as it may be from time to time amended, modified, extended, renewed, substituted and/or supplemented, referred to as the “Assignment of Rents”), all of Mortgagor’s right, title and interest as landlord or as tenant in and to all leases or other rights of use and or occupancy of any part of the Premises, both present and future, including, without limitation, all tenant security deposits (hereinafter, as they may be from time to time amended, modified, extended, renewed, substituted and/or supplemented, collectively referred to as the “Leases”) and all of the rents, issues and profits from the Leases or guaranties thereof (hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Rents”).

(c) Except as otherwise expressly provided in the last sentence of this subparagraph (c), all Leases and other rental arrangements executed from and after the date hereof shall in all respects be approved by Mortgagee, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld. Mortgagor shall hold, in trust, all tenant security deposits in a segregated account, and, to the extent required by applicable law, shall not commingle any such funds with any other funds of Mortgagor.

ING No. 28193

and complete. Notwithstanding anything contained in the Loan Documents to the contrary, Mortgagee’s approval shall not be required for future Leases or lease extensions if the following conditions are satisfied: (i) there exists no Potential Default or Event of Default; (ii) the Lease is on the standard lease form approved by Mortgagee with no material modifications; (iii) the Lease does not conflict with any restrictive covenant affecting the Premises or any other Lease for space in the Premises; (iv) the leased premises, when combined with all other space in the Premises leased to the same tenant or any Affiliate thereof, are not greater than 30,000 rentable square feet; and (v) the lease term, effective rental rate, and other terms of the Lease are consistent with the applicable “Approved Leasing Parameters” (as such term is defined in the Loan Agreement).
(d) All Leases entered into after the date hereof (i) shall be bona fide arms-length transactions with a third party, and (ii) shall be on a form approved by Mortgagee (which approval has not been previously revoked by Mortgagee as hereinafter provided). Mortgagee will, at the request of Mortgagor, approve a form of lease reasonably satisfactory to Mortgagee, but Mortgagee shall have the right subsequently to revoke such approval upon thirty (30) days prior written notice to Mortgagor of its election to do so. In the event of any such revocation or approval, Mortgagor shall not enter into any Lease without the prior express written approval of Mortgagee until Mortgagee has approved a revised form of lease satisfactory to it in its reasonable discretion, which Mortgagee shall endeavor to do promptly. All modifications to existing Leases which are not automatically subordinated to this Mortgage (those Leases for which Mortgagee executes a Subordination, Non Disturbance and Attornment Agreement (hereinafter referred to as an “SNDA”) shall not be considered “automatically subordinate”) must be approved by Mortgagee. Notwithstanding the above, Mortgagor will not be required to obtain Lease approval for any future tenants after the date hereof provided the tenant does not request an SNDA or tenant has not been granted a purchase option for the Premises or portion thereof or right of first refusal to purchase and further provided that Mortgagee has not executed an SNDA with such tenant at the Premises on a prior occasion.
(e) For any Lease entered into after the date hereof which (i) by its terms does not provide for automatic subordination without the requirement that Mortgagee grant non-disturbance provisions to tenant as a condition of the automatic subordination or (ii) relates to either (1) a Lease relating to 30,000 square feet or more of the Premises, or (2) any recorded Lease or any Lease with a memorandum thereof that has been recorded, Mortgagor shall obtain an SNDA in a form approved by Mortgagee.
(f) Mortgagor will not, without Mortgagee’s prior written consent: (i) execute an assignment or pledge of any Rents and/or any Leases; or (ii) accept any prepayment of any installment of any Rents more than thirty (30) days before the due date of such installment, and in any event no more than thirty (30) days in advance of the then current month.
(g) Mortgagor at its sole cost and expense will: (i) at all times promptly and faithfully abide by, discharge and perform all material covenants, conditions and agreements contained in all Leases, on the part of the landlord thereunder to be kept and performed; (ii) enforce or secure the performance of all material covenants, conditions and agreements of the Leases on the part of the lessees to be kept and performed, but except in the ordinary course of business Mortgagor shall not modify, amend, renew, extend, cancel, terminate or accept surrender of any Lease without the prior express written consent of Mortgagee, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; (iii) appear in and defend any material action or proceeding arising under, growing out of or in any manner connected with the Leases or material obligations, duties or liabilities of landlord or of the lessees thereunder; (iv) upon written request of Mortgagee, transfer and assign to Mortgagee, any Lease or Leases heretofore or hereafter entered into, and make, execute and deliver to Mortgagee within thirty (30) days after written demand, any and all instruments required to effectuate said assignment; (v) furnish Mortgagee, within ten (10) days after a

(h) Nothing in this Mortgage or in any other documents relating to the Loans shall be construed to obligate Mortgagee, expressly or by implication, to perform any of the covenants of Mortgagor as landlord under any of the Leases assigned to Mortgagee or to pay any sum of money or damages therein provided to be paid by the landlord, each and all of which covenants and payments Mortgagor agrees to perform and pay.
(i) Mortgagor will not permit any Lease or any part thereof to become subordinate to any lien other than the lien hereof.
(j) It is covenanted and agreed that an Event of Default under the Assignment of Rents shall constitute an Event of Default hereunder on account of which the whole of the Indebtedness shall at once, at the option of Mortgagee, become immediately due and payable without notice to Mortgagor.
(k) Mortgagor shall not, and shall not permit any tenant to, conduct any on-site dry cleaning operations on the Premises.
11. Effect of Extension of Time. If the payment of the Indebtedness, or any part thereof, is extended or varied, or if any part of any security for the payment of the Indebtedness is released, or if any person or entity liable for the payment of the Indebtedness is released, or if Mortgagee or Lenders take other or additional security for the payment of the Indebtedness, or if Mortgagee or Lenders waive or fail to exercise any right granted herein, or in the Notes secured hereby, or in any other Loan Document, then all persons now or at any time hereafter liable for the payment of the Indebtedness, or any part thereof, or interested in the Premises shall be held to assent to such extension, variation, release, waiver, failure to exercise or the taking of additional security, and their liability and the lien and all provisions hereof shall continue in full force, the right of recourse against all such persons being expressly reserved by Mortgagee, notwithstanding such extension, variation, release, waiver, failure to exercise, or the taking of additional security.
12. Effect of Changes in Laws Regarding Taxation. In the event of the enactment after this date of any law of the state in which the Premises are located deducting from the value of the Premises for the purpose of taxation any lien thereon, or imposing upon Mortgagee or Lenders the payment of the whole or any part of the taxes or assessments or charges or liens herein required to be paid by Mortgagor, or changing in any way the laws relating to the taxation of mortgages or debts secured by mortgages or Mortgagee’s interest in the Premises, or the manner of collection of taxes, so as to affect this Mortgage or the debt secured hereby or the holders thereof, then, and in any such event, Mortgagor, upon demand by Mortgagee, shall pay such taxes or assessments, or reimburse Mortgagee or Lenders therefor if Mortgagee or any Lender pays such taxes and submits proof of payment to Mortgagor; provided, however, that if, in the opinion of counsel for Mortgagee: (i) it might be unlawful to require Mortgagor to make such payment, or (ii) the making of such payment might result in the imposition of interest beyond the maximum amount permitted by law, then and in such event, Mortgagee may elect, by notice in writing given to Mortgagor, to declare all of the Indebtedness to be and become due and payable ninety (90) days from the giving of such notice, without the applicable “Prepayment Premium” (as such term is defined in the Notes).

Inaction of Mortgagee shall never be considered as a waiver of any right accruing to it on account of any Event of Default on the part of Mortgagor.
14. Mortgagee’s Reliance on Tax Bills, Etc. Mortgagee in making any payment hereby authorized: (a) relating to taxes and assessments, may do so according to any xxxx, statement or estimate procured from the appropriate public office without inquiry into the accuracy of such xxxx, statement or estimate or into the validity of any tax, assessment, sale, forfeiture, tax lien or title or claim thereof; or (b) relating to insurance premiums, may do so according to any xxxx or statement procured from the appropriate company without inquiry into the accuracy of such xxxx or statement; or (c) for the purchase, discharge, compromise or settlement of any other prior lien, may do so without inquiry as to the validity or amount of any claim for lien which may be asserted.
15. Acceleration of Indebtedness in Event of Default. It is expressly agreed by Mortgagor that time is of the essence hereof and that, at the option of Mortgagee, the whole of the Indebtedness shall become immediately due and payable without notice to Mortgagor upon the occurrence of one or more of the following events (hereinbefore and hereinafter collectively referred to as “Events of Default” and individually referred to as an “Event of Default”), together with a prepayment premium in the amount, if any, required to be paid pursuant to the terms of the Notes in the event of a prepayment:

If an Event of Default shall occur, Mortgagee may declare the Indebtedness to be and the same shall be, immediately due and payable without presentment, demand, protest or notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived and without regard to the value of the Premises held as security for the Indebtedness or the solvency of any person liable for the payment of such Indebtedness; and/or exercise any other right, power or remedy available to it at law (including, without limitation, pursuant to the Illinois Mortgage Foreclosure Law, as amended (Illinois Code Xxx. 735 ILCS 5/15-1101, et seq.) (hereinafter referred to as the “Mortgage Foreclosure Act”)) or in equity, hereunder or under any other Loan Document without demand, protest or notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived, except such as is expressly required hereby or by such other Loan Document. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Mortgagee may:
(i) enter and take possession of the Premises or any part thereof, exclude Mortgagor and all persons claiming under Mortgagor wholly or partly therefrom, and operate, use, manage and control the same, or cause the same to be operated by a person selected by Mortgagee, either in the name of Mortgagor or otherwise, and upon such entry, from time to time, at the expense of Mortgagor and of the Premises, make all such repairs, replacements, alterations, additions or improvements thereto as Mortgagee may deem proper, and to lease the Premises or any part thereof at such rental and to such persons as it may deem proper and collect and receive the rents, revenues, issues, profits, royalties, income and benefits thereof including, without limitation, those past due and those thereafter accruing, with the right of Mortgagee to terminate, cancel or otherwise enforce any Lease or sublease for any default that would entitle Mortgagor to terminate, cancel or enforce same and apply the same to the payment of all expenses which Mortgagee may be authorized to incur under the provisions of this Mortgage and applicable laws, the remainder to be applied to the payment, performance and discharge of the Indebtedness in such order as Mortgagee may determine until the same have been paid in full;
(ii) institute an action for the foreclosure of this Mortgage and the sale of the Premises pursuant to the judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction;
(iii) to the extent permitted by applicable law, sell the Premises to the highest bidder or bidders at public auction at a sale or sales held at such place or places and time or times and upon such notice and otherwise in such manner as may be required by law, or in the absence of any such requirement, as Mortgagee may deem appropriate, and from time to time adjourn such sale by announcement at the time and place specified for such sale or for such adjourned sale or sales without further notice except such as may be

[MORTGAGE, ASSIGNMENT OF LEASES, SECURITY AGREEMENT AND FIXTURE FILING]
ING No. 28193
GECC No. 690081960
required by law;
(iv) take all action to protect and enforce the rights of Mortgagee under this Mortgage by suit for specific performance of any covenant herein contained, or in aid of the execution of any power herein granted or for the enforcement of any other rights;
(v) exercise any or all of the rights and remedies available to a secured party under the UCC, including the right to (A) enter the Premises and take possession of any personal property without demand or notice and without prior judicial hearing or legal proceedings, which Mortgagor hereby expressly waives, (B) require Mortgagor to assemble any personal property, or any portion thereof, and make it available to Mortgagee at a place or places designated by Mortgagee and reasonably convenient to both parties and (C) sell all or any portion of the personal property at public or private sale, without prior notice to Mortgagor except as otherwise required by law (and if notice is required by law, after ten days' prior written notice), at such place or places and at such time or times and in such manner and upon such terms, whether for cash or on credit, as Mortgagee in its sole discretion may determine. As to any property subject to Article 9 of the UCC included in the Premises, Mortgagee may proceed under the UCC or proceed as to both real and personal property in accordance with the provisions of this Mortgage and the rights and remedies that Mortgagee may have at law or in equity, in respect of real property, and treat both the real and personal property included in the Premises as one parcel or package of security. Mortgagor shall have the burden of proving that any such sale pursuant to the UCC was conducted in a commercially unreasonable manner;
(vi) terminate any management agreements, contracts, or agents/managers responsible, for the property management of the Premises, if in the sole discretion of Mortgagee such property management is unsatisfactory in any respect;
(vii) foreclose this Mortgage, at Mortgagee’s option, by judicial or non-judicial foreclosure, for the entire unpaid amount of the Indebtedness, or only as to the sum past due, with interest and costs without injury to this Mortgage or the displacement or impairment of the remainder of the lien thereof, and at such foreclosure sale the Premises shall be sold subject to all remaining items of the Indebtedness and Mortgagee may again foreclose, in the same manner, as often as there may be any sum past due. In case of sale in any action or proceeding to foreclose this Mortgage, Mortgagee shall have the right to sell the Premises covered hereby in parts or as an entirety. It is intended hereby to give to Mortgagee the widest possible discretion permitted by law with respect to all aspects of any such sale or sales.
(viii) to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, if an Event of Default occurs due to the nonpayment of the Indebtedness, or any part thereof, and to the extent permitted under applicable law and then in strict compliance with such law, as an alternative to the right of foreclosure for the full Indebtedness after acceleration thereof, Mortgagee shall have the right to institute proceedings, either judicial or non-judicial, at Mortgagee’s option, for partial foreclosure with respect to the portion of said Indebtedness so in default, as if under a full foreclosure, and without declaring the entire Indebtedness due (such proceedings being hereinafter referred to as “Partial Foreclosure”), and provided that if a foreclosure sale is made because of an Event of Default in the payment of a part of the Indebtedness, such sale may be made subject to the continuing lien of this Mortgage for the unmatured part of the Indebtedness; and it is
- 19 –
[MORTGAGE, ASSIGNMENT OF LEASES, SECURITY AGREEMENT AND FIXTURE FILING]
ING No. 28193
GECC No. 690081960
agreed that such sale pursuant to a Partial Foreclosure, if so made, shall not in any manner affect the unmatured part of the Indebtedness, but as to such unmatured part, this Mortgage and the lien thereof shall remain in full force and effect just as though no foreclosure sale had been made under the provisions of this Paragraph. Notwithstanding any Partial Foreclosure, Mortgagee may elect, at any time prior to sale pursuant to such Partial Foreclosure, to discontinue such Partial Foreclosure and to accelerate the Indebtedness by reason of any Event of Default upon which such Partial Foreclosure was predicated or by reason of any other further Event of Default, and proceed with full foreclosure proceedings. It is further agreed that several foreclosures may be made pursuant to Partial Foreclosure without exhausting the right of full or Partial Foreclosure sale for any unmatured part of the Indebtedness, it being the purpose to provide for a Partial Foreclosure sale of the Indebtedness hereby without exhausting the power to foreclose and to sell the Premises pursuant to any such Partial Foreclosure for any other part of the Indebtedness, whether matured at the time or subsequently maturing, and without exhausting any right of acceleration and full foreclosure.
(b) Receiver. If an Event of Default shall occur, Mortgagee shall be entitled, to the extent permitted by applicable law, to the appointment of a receiver of the Premises and the rents, revenues, issues, profits, royalties, income and benefits thereof, without notice or demand, and without regard to the adequacy of the security for the Indebtedness, the value of the Premises or the solvency of Mortgagor, either before or after any sale, and, Mortgagee may be appointed as such receiver. Such receiver shall have, without limitation, the power: (i) to collect the rents, issues and profits of the Premises during the pendency of any foreclosure proceedings whether by judicial or non-judicial foreclosure, and, in case of a sale and a deficiency, for such time when Mortgagor, except for the intervention of such receiver, would be entitled to collect such rents, issues and profits, to the maximum time and extent permitted by law; (ii) to extend or modify any then existing Leases and to make new leases, which extensions, modifications and new leases may provide for terms to expire, or for options to leases to extend or renew terms to expire, beyond the maturity date of the Notes and beyond the date of the issuance of a deed or deeds to a purchaser or purchasers at a foreclosure sale, it being understood and agreed that any such leases, and the options or other such provisions to be contained therein, shall be binding upon Mortgagor and all persons whose interests in the Premises are subject to the lien hereof and upon the purchaser or purchasers at any foreclosure sale, notwithstanding any redemption from sale, discharge of the secured obligations, satisfaction of any foreclosure decree, or issuance of any certificate of sale or deed to any purchaser; (iii) to grant and amend any easements, licenses, and other rights of occupancy with respect to the Premises; and (iv) all other powers which may be necessary or are usual in such case for the protection, possession, control, management, and operation of the Premises during the whole of said period. The court from time to time may authorize the receiver to apply the net income in the receiver’s hands in payment in whole or in part of the Indebtedness and all obligations hereunder, or by any decree foreclosing this Mortgage, or in accordance with applicable non-judicial foreclosure provisions, any tax, special assessment or other lien which may be or become superior to the lien hereof or of such decree. Nothing herein shall be construed to limit or otherwise waive Mortgagee’s rights to obtain rents, issues and profits, deliver to one or more tenants a written demand to turn over rents, issues and profits or deliver to Mortgagor a written demand to turn over rents, issues and profits without appointing a receiver. If an Event of Default shall have been waived in writing by Mortgagee or the Indebtedness reinstated in accordance with applicable law, Mortgagee shall cooperate with Mortgagor, at Mortgagor’s expense, to obtain the dismissal of any receiver appointed for the Premises at the instance of Mortgagee.
(c) Sales by Parcels. In any sale made under or by virtue of this Mortgage or pursuant to any judgment or decree of court, the Premises may be sold in one or more parts or parcels or as an entirety and in such order as Mortgagee may elect, without regard to the right of Mortgagor, or any person

ING No. 28193
GECC No. 690081960
claiming under it, to the marshaling of assets. To the full extent permitted by law, Mortgagor waives the marshaling of assets.
(d) Effect of Sale. The purchaser at any sale made under or by virtue of this Mortgage or pursuant to any judgment or decree of court shall take title to the Premises or the part thereof so sold free and discharged of the estate of Mortgagor therein, the purchaser being hereby discharged from all liability to see to the application of the purchase money. Any person, including Mortgagee and any Lender, may purchase at any such sale. Mortgagee is hereby irrevocably appointed the attorney-in-fact of Mortgagor in its name and stead to make all appropriate transfers and deliveries of the Premises or any portions thereof so sold and, for this purpose, Mortgagee may execute all appropriate instruments of transfer, and may substitute one or more persons with like power, Mortgagor hereby ratifying and confirming all that its said attorneys or such substitute or substitutes shall lawfully do by virtue hereof. Nevertheless, promptly upon Mortgagee’s written request, Mortgagor shall ratify and confirm, or cause to be ratified and confirmed, any such sale or sales by executing and delivering, or by causing to be executed and delivered, to Mortgagee or to such purchaser or purchasers all such instruments as may be advisable, in the judgment of Mortgagee, for the purpose, and as may be designated, in such request. Any sale or sales made under or by virtue of this Mortgage, to the extent not prohibited by law, shall operate to divest all the estate, right, title, interest, property, claim and demand whatsoever, whether at law or in equity, of Mortgagor in, to and under the Premises, or any portions thereof so sold, and shall be a perpetual bar both at law and in equity against Mortgagor, its successors and assigns, and against any and all persons claiming or who may claim the same, or any part thereof, by, through or under Mortgagor, or its successors or assigns. The powers and agency herein granted are coupled with an interest and are irrevocable.
(e) Eviction of Mortgagor After Sale. If Mortgagor fails or refuses to surrender possession of the Premises after any sale thereof, Mortgagor shall be deemed a tenant at sufferance, subject to eviction by means of forcible entry and detainer proceedings, provided, that this remedy is not exclusive or in derogation of any other right or remedy available to Mortgagee or any purchaser of the Premises under any provision of this Mortgage or pursuant to any judgment or decree of court.
(f) Insurance Policies. In the event of a foreclosure sale pursuant to this Mortgage or other transfer of title or assignment of the Premises in extinguishment, in whole or in part, of the Indebtedness, all right, title and interest of Mortgagor in and to all policies of insurance required under the provisions of this Mortgage shall, to the extent assignable, inure to the benefit of and pass to the successor in interest of Mortgagor or the purchaser or grantee of the Premises or any part thereof so transferred.
(g) Foreclosure; Expense of Litigation. When the Indebtedness hereby secured, or any part thereof shall become due, whether by acceleration or otherwise, Mortgagee shall have the right to foreclose the lien hereof for such Indebtedness or part thereof. In any suit to foreclose the lien hereof, there shall be allowed and included as additional Indebtedness in the decree for sale all expenditures and expenses which may be paid or incurred by or on behalf of Mortgagee and/or Lenders for reasonable attorneys’ fees, appraiser’s fees, actual costs of environmental reviews or audits, outlays for documentary and expert evidence, stenographers’ charges, publication costs, and costs (which may be estimated as to items to be expended after entry of the decree) of procuring all such abstracts of title, title searches and examinations, title insurance policies, and similar data and assurances with respect to the title as Mortgagee may deem reasonably necessary either to prosecute such action or to evidence to bidders at any sale which may be had pursuant to such decree the true condition of the title to or the value of the Premises. All expenditures and expenses of the nature in this Paragraph mentioned and such expenses and fees as may be incurred in the protection of the Premises and the maintenance of the lien of this Mortgage, including the reasonable fees of any attorneys employed by Mortgagee and/or Lenders in any
- 21 –

ING No. 28193
GECC No. 690081960
litigation or proceeding affecting this Mortgage, the Notes or the Premises, including appellate, probate and bankruptcy proceedings, or in preparations for the commencement or defense of any proceedings or threatened suit or proceeding shall be immediately due and payable by Mortgagor, with interest thereon at the applicable Default Rate of interest as set forth in the Notes and shall be secured by this Mortgage.
17. Application of Proceeds. The proceeds of any sale made either under the power of sale hereby given or under a judgment, order or decree made in any action to foreclose or to enforce this Mortgage, shall be applied:
(a) first to the payment of (i) all costs and expenses of such sale, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, environmental site assessors fees and costs, appraisers’ fees and costs of procuring title searches, title insurance policies and similar items and (ii) all charges, expenses and advances incurred or made by Mortgagee in order to protect the lien or estate created by this Mortgage or the security afforded hereby including any expenses of entering, taking possession of and operating the Premises;
(b) then to the payment of any other Indebtedness in such order as Mortgagee may determine until the same have been paid in full; and
(c) any balance thereof shall be paid to Mortgagor, or to whosoever shall be legally entitled thereto, or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct.
18. Rights and Remedies Cumulative. Each right, power and remedy herein conferred upon Mortgagee and/or Lenders is cumulative and in addition to every other right, power or remedy, express or implied, given now or hereafter existing, at law or in equity, and each and every right, power and remedy herein set forth or otherwise so existing may be exercised from time to time as often and in such order as may be deemed expedient by Mortgagee and/or Lenders, and the exercise or the beginning of the exercise of one right, power or remedy shall not be a waiver of the right to exercise at the same time or thereafter any other right, power or remedy and no delay or omission of Mortgagee and/or Lenders in the exercise of any right, power or remedy accruing hereunder or arising otherwise shall impair any such right, power or remedy, or be construed to be a waiver of any Event of Default or acquiescence therein.
19. Mortgagee’s Right of Inspection. Mortgagee or its agent shall, upon reasonable notice to Mortgagor, have the right to inspect the Premises at all reasonable times and access thereto, subject to the rights of tenants.
20. Condemnation. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Declaration, Mortgagee may, at its option, in its own name, as collateral agent for Lenders, (a) appear or proceed in any condemnation proceeding, and (b) make any compromise or settlement thereof, provided that so long as no Event of Default exists and Mortgagor promptly prosecutes any compromise or settlement thereof, Mortgagor shall control any compromise or settlement proceeding, with the result thereof being subject to Mortgagee’s prior express written approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. If an Event of Default shall exist, Mortgagor shall not exercise any right pursuant to Article 13 of the Declaration, without Mortgagee’s prior express written consent, and Mortgagor shall take all action and execute such agreements as shall be necessary to settle or compromise any such claim, as approved by Mortgagee, in its sole discretion. Mortgagor shall give Mortgagee prompt written notice of the initiation of any condemnation proceeding, and a copy of every pleading, notice and other items served in any condemnation proceeding.
Mortgagor hereby assigns, transfers and sets over unto Mortgagee all of Mortgagor’s rights, title,
- 22 –

ING No. 28193
GECC No. 690081960
and interests in the entire proceeds of any award or any claim for damages for any of the Premises taken or damaged under the power of eminent domain or by condemnation. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Declaration, Mortgagee may elect to apply the proceeds of the award upon or in reduction of the Indebtedness, whether due or not, in accordance with the terms of the Notes, or to make said proceeds available for restoration or rebuilding of the Premises. Mortgagee may elect to apply any “Excess Award” (as such term is defined in the Declaration) upon or in reduction of the Indebtedness, whether due or not, in accordance with the terms of the Notes, or to make said proceeds available for further restoration or rebuilding of the Premises. Any “Award” (as such term is defined in the Declaration) shall be deposited with the Depositary and used to repair and restore the Premises in accordance with the terms of the Declaration.
Awards shall be deposited with the Depository and used for the repair and restoration of the Premises in accordance with the provisions of the Declaration; provided that, (i) Mortgagor shall not approve the appointment of any Depository, without the prior express written consent of Mortgagee and (ii) Mortgagee shall cause all Awards dispersed by the Depository to be funded through a construction escrow with the Title Insurer, subject to Mortgagee’s prior express written approval, such approval not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed, which escrow agreement shall require the escrowee thereunder to provide current dated endorsement(s) to the Mortgagee’s title insurance policy, free and clear of all liens and encumbrances.
In the event of a Condemnation, pursuant to the terms of the Declaration, Mortgagor shall have the right to enter into contracts for repair and restoration of the Premises and the Hotel Property in accordance with the provisions of the Declaration; provided that Mortgagor shall not exercise such right to enter into any contract for the repair or restoration of the Premises or the Hotel Property, without the prior express written consent of Mortgagee: (1) if such construction contract has a price in excess of the Award deposited with the Depository, and/or (2) if the cost of rebuilding, repairing or restoring of the Improvements and the Hotel Property exceeds the sum of Two Million and 00/100 ($2,000,000.00) Dollars, until Mortgagee has approved in writing the form of the construction contract and the plans and specifications for the proposed rebuilding and restoration, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. Mortgagor shall not permit any contractor to commence work until funds have been deposited with the Depository (as required pursuant to the Declaration) in an amount equal to the maximum construction price under such contractor’s construction contract.
In the event that Mortgagee elects, in Mortgagee’s sole and absolute discretion, to make Excess Proceeds or other Awards payable to Mortgagor pursuant to the Declaration available to reimburse Mortgagor for the cost of the rebuilding or restoration of the Improvements, such proceeds shall be made available in the manner and under the conditions that Mortgagee may require. In any event, the Improvements shall be restored or rebuilt in accordance with the Declaration and the plans and specifications to be submitted to and approved by Mortgagee prior to commencement of any building or restoration. If the proceeds are made available by Mortgagee to reimburse Mortgagor for the cost of said rebuilding or restoration, any surplus which may remain out of said award after payment of such cost of rebuilding or restoration shall at the option of Mortgagee be applied on account of the Indebtedness or be paid to any party entitled thereto. Interest shall be allowed to Mortgagor on the proceeds of any award held by Mortgagee.
21. Release Upon Payment and Discharge of Mortgagor’s Obligations.

Provided, that the “copy to” Notice to be given as set forth above is a courtesy copy only; and a Notice given to such person is not sufficient to effect giving a Notice to the principal party, nor does a failure to give such a courtesy copy of a Notice constitute a failure to give Notice to the principal party.
23. Waiver of Defense. No action for the enforcement of the lien or of any provision hereof shall be subject to any defense which would not be good and available to the party interposing same in an action at law or in equity upon the Notes hereby secured.
24. Waiver of Statutory Rights. Mortgagor shall not, and will not, apply for or avail itself of any homestead, appraisement, valuation, stay, extension or exemption laws, or any so-called “Moratorium Laws”, now existing or hereafter enacted, in order to prevent or hinder the enforcement or foreclosure of this Mortgage, but to the extent lawfully allowed hereby waives the benefit of such laws. Mortgagor, for itself and all who may claim through or under it, waives any and all right to have the property and estates comprising the Premises marshaled upon any foreclosure of the lien hereof and agrees that any court having jurisdiction to foreclose such lien may order the Premises sold as an entirety. To the extent permitted by law, Mortgagor does hereby expressly waive any and all rights of redemption from sale under any order or decree of foreclosure of this Mortgage on behalf of Mortgagor, the trust estate and all persons beneficially interested therein and each and every person, acquiring any interest in or title to the Premises subsequent to the date of this Mortgage. Such waiver is intended to be made in accordance with the provisions to 735 ILCS 5/15 1601 et seq. of the Mortgage Foreclosure Act, and to the greatest extent permitted by applicable law, is to be deemed to be a waiver of any and all rights of reinstatement and redemption (including, without limitation, all rights of reinstatement provided for in 735 ILCS 5/15 1602 or redemption from sale provided for in 735 ILCS 5/15 1603).
25. Furnishing of Financial Statements to Mortgagee. (a) Mortgagor covenants and agrees that it will keep and maintain books and records of account, or cause books and records of account to be kept and maintained in which full, true and correct entries shall be made of all dealings and transactions relative to the Premises, which books and records of account shall, at reasonable times during business hours and on reasonable notice, be open to inspection by Mortgagee and Mortgagee’s accountants and other duly authorized representatives. Such books of record and account shall be kept and maintained either:
(i) In accordance with generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied; or
(ii) In accordance with a cash basis, accrual basis, or other commercially accepted comprehensive basis of accounting for real estate consistently applied; provided, however, in the event Mortgagor chooses the accrual basis of accounting, Mortgagor shall provide Mortgagee with a reconciliation to a cash basis of accounting on a monthly basis.

GECC No. 690081960
(b) Mortgagor covenants and agrees to furnish, or cause to be furnished to Mortgagee, prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default, on an annual basis, within ninety-one (91) days following the end of each fiscal year of Mortgagor, unaudited annual financial reports, including balance sheets, a statement of income and expenses, cash flow statements, and supporting schedules covering the operation of the Premises and Mortgagor for the previous fiscal year and a current rent roll of the Premises. Each report or statement shall be certified as complete, correct and accurate by Mortgagor.
(c) Mortgagor covenants and agrees to furnish, or cause to be furnished to Mortgagee, at all times after the occurrence of an Event of Default, on an annual basis, within ninety-one (91) days following the end of each fiscal year of Mortgagor, audited annual financial reports, including balance sheets, a statement of income and expenses, cash flow statements, and supporting schedules covering the operation of the Premises and Mortgagor for the previous fiscal year and a current rent roll of the Premises. Mortgagor shall simultaneously deliver to Mortgagee a financial statement of Mortgagor, prepared in accordance with the accounting requirements set forth above, certified by Mortgagor. Each report or statement shall be certified as complete, correct and accurate by Mortgagor. Such financial statements shall be accompanied by an opinion of an independent certified public accountant reasonably acceptable to Mortgagee, in its reasonable discretion, which opinion shall be signed by such independent certified public accountant. The opinion of such accountants shall be free of exceptions or qualifications not acceptable to Mortgagee, in its reasonable discretion, and in any event shall be free of any exception or qualification which is of “going concern” or like nature or which relates to a more limited scope of examination. Such opinion shall in any event contain a written statement of such accountants substantially to the effect that (i) such accountants examined the financial statements in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards and accordingly made such tests of accounting records and such other auditing procedures as such accountants considered necessary under the circumstances and (ii) in the opinion of such accountants such financial statements present fairly the financial position of Mortgagor as of the end of such fiscal year, and the results of Mortgagor’s operations and cash flows for such fiscal year, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles applied on a basis consistent with that of the preceding fiscal year.
(d) Mortgagor covenants and agrees to furnish, or cause to be furnished to Mortgagee, as soon as available, but in any event within forty-five (45) days after the close of each of the first, second and third fiscal quarters of each fiscal year of Mortgagor, “unaudited” management prepared statements of income and cash flows for Mortgagor for such fiscal quarter and for the period from the beginning of such fiscal year to the end of such fiscal quarter, and an “unaudited” balance sheet of Mortgagor as of the close of such fiscal quarter, all in reasonable detail, setting forth in comparative form the corresponding figures for the corresponding dates and periods during the preceding fiscal year. Each report or statement shall be certified as complete, correct and accurate by Mortgagor as presenting fairly the financial position of the Mortgagor as of the end of such dates and fiscal periods and the results of its operations and cash flows for such fiscal periods, in conformity with either of the two accounting principles described in Paragraph 25(a) above.
(e) Mortgagor covenants and agrees to furnish, or cause to be furnished to Mortgagee, as soon as available, but in any event within twenty-five (25) days after the close of each month of each fiscal year of Mortgagor, “unaudited” management prepared statements of income and cash flows for Mortgagor for such prior month, and an “unaudited” balance sheet of Mortgagor as of the close of such prior month. Each report or statement shall be certified as complete, correct and accurate by Mortgagor as presenting fairly the financial position of the Mortgagor as of the end of such dates and fiscal periods and the results of its operations and cash flows for such fiscal periods, in conformity with either of the two accounting principles described in Paragraph 25(a) above.

(a) Mortgagor and Mortgagee agree that this Mortgage shall constitute a security agreement within the meaning of the UCC with respect to (i) insurance proceeds or condemnation proceeds, (ii) ground rent escrows, (iii) real estate tax escrows, (iv) insurance premium escrows, and (v) tenant improvement, leasing commission, and capital expenditure reserve escrows (hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Deposits”) and with respect to any personal property and fixtures included in the definition herein of the word “Premises”, which property may not be deemed to form a part of the real estate described in Exhibit “A” or may not constitute a “fixture” within the meaning of the UCC, and all replacements of such property, substitutions and additions thereto and the proceeds thereof, all such property being sometimes hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Collateral”, and that a security interest in and to the Collateral and the Deposits is hereby granted to Mortgagee and the Deposits and all of Mortgagor’s right, title and interest therein are hereby assigned to Mortgagee, all to secure payment of the Indebtedness and to secure performance by Mortgagor of the terms, covenants and provisions hereof. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default under this Mortgage, Mortgagee, pursuant to the appropriate provisions of the UCC, shall have the option of proceeding with respect to the Collateral in accordance with its rights and remedies with respect to the real property, in which event the
- 27 –
[MORTGAGE, ASSIGNMENT OF LEASES, SECURITY AGREEMENT AND FIXTURE FILING]
ING No. 28193
GECC No. 690081960
default provisions of the UCC shall not apply. The parties agree that, in the event Mortgagee shall elect to proceed with respect to the Collateral separately from the real property, ten (10) days’ notice of the sale of the Collateral shall be reasonable notice. The reasonable expenses of retaking, holding, preparing for sale, selling and the like incurred by Mortgagee shall include, but not be limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees and legal expenses incurred by Mortgagee. Mortgagor agrees that, without the written consent of Mortgagee, Mortgagor will not sell, dispose of, or grant a security interest or other encumbrance in any portion of the Collateral or execute any financing statement covering any portion of the Collateral in favor of any person other than Mortgagee. Mortgagor may, however, sell or otherwise dispose of Collateral in the event of obsolescence or otherwise in the ordinary course of business if Mortgagor promptly replaces such Collateral sold (in the event such Collateral is necessary, required, or reasonably desirable for the continued operation, use, and enjoyment of the Premises) with substitute Collateral of substantially similar quality and utility and of equal or greater value, and in such a manner so that said Collateral shall be subject to the security interest created hereby, and so that the security interest of Mortgagee shall be first in priority, it being expressly understood and agreed that all replacements of the Collateral and any additions to the Collateral shall be and become immediately subject to the security interest of this Mortgage and covered hereby. Mortgagor shall, from time to time, on request of Mortgagee, deliver to Mortgagee an inventory of the Collateral in reasonable detail. Mortgagor covenants and represents that all Collateral, and all replacements thereof, substitutions therefor or additions thereto, unless Mortgagee otherwise consents, now are and will be free and clear of liens (other than the lien of taxes not yet due or payable), encumbrances or security interests of others, other than “Permitted Liens” (as such term is defined in that certain Security Agreement dated of even date herewith, executed by Mortgagor in favor of Mortgagee, for the benefit of the Lenders) and liens in favor of Mortgagee, for the benefit of the Lenders. Mortgagor shall, upon demand execute and deliver to Mortgagee such documents in form satisfactory to Mortgagee, and will do all such acts and things as Mortgagee may at anytime, or from time to time, reasonably request or as may be necessary or appropriate to establish and maintain a first perfected security interest in the Deposits and Collateral, subject to no liens (other than the lien of taxes not yet due or payable), encumbrances, or security interests of others, except as expressly approved by Mortgagee in writing or as otherwise may be expressly permitted by the terms of the Loan Documents.

ING No. 28193
GECC No. 690081960
secured hereby, or in any other security documents given to secure the payment of the Notes secured hereby, shall for any reason be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall, at the option of Mortgagee, not affect any other provision of this Mortgage, and this Mortgage shall be construed as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein or therein.
(c) Mortgagor will, from time to time, upon ten (10) business days’ prior written request from Mortgagee, make, execute, acknowledge and deliver to Mortgagee such supplemental mortgages, certificates and other documents as may be necessary for better assuring and confirming unto Mortgagee any of the Premises, or for more particularly identifying and describing the Premises, or to preserve or protect the priority of this Mortgage lien, and generally do and perform such other acts and things and execute and deliver such other instruments and documents as may reasonably be deemed necessary or advisable by Mortgagee to carry out the intentions of this Mortgage.
(d) Mortgagor shall not by act or omission permit any building or other improvement on any premises not subject to the lien of this Mortgage to rely on the Premises or any part thereof or any interest therein to fulfill any municipal or governmental requirement. Mortgagor hereby represents and warrants to Mortgagee and the Lenders that a change in ownership of the real property described in the Leasehold Mortgage will not, by itself, cause a violation of any municipal or governmental requirement, whether with respect to zoning, parking, or otherwise, applicable to the Premises. Mortgagor hereby assigns to Mortgagee any and all rights to give consent for all or any portion of the Premises or any interest therein to be so used. Similarly, no building or other Improvement on the Premises shall rely on any premises not subject to the lien of this Mortgage or any interest therein to fulfill any governmental or municipal requirement. Any act or omission by Mortgagor which would result in a violation of any of the provisions of this paragraph shall be void.
(e) Mortgagor will, from time to time, upon ten (10) business days’ prior written request by Mortgagee, execute, acknowledge and deliver to Mortgagee, an estoppel certificate stating that this Mortgage is unmodified and in full force and effect (or, if there have been modifications, that this Mortgage is in full force and effect as modified and setting forth such modifications) and stating the principal amount secured hereby and the interest accrued to date on such principal amount. The estoppel certificate from Mortgagor shall also state to the best knowledge of Mortgagor whether any offsets or defenses to the Indebtedness exist and if so shall identify them.
(f) Each Note secured hereby includes provisions for the assessment of a Late Charge, as defined therein. Said Late Charge shall be secured hereby as Indebtedness, as that term is used herein.
(g) Mortgagee shall have the right and option to exercise power of sale or to commence a civil action to foreclose this Mortgage and to obtain a decree of foreclosure. The failure to join any tenant or tenants as party defendant or defendants in any such civil action or the failure of any decree of foreclosure and sale to foreclose their rights shall not be asserted by Mortgagor as a defense in any civil action instituted to collect the Indebtedness, or any part thereof, or any deficiency remaining unpaid after foreclosure and sale of the Premises, any statute or rule of law at any time existing to the contrary notwithstanding.
(h) At the option of Mortgagee, this Mortgage shall become, subject and subordinate, in whole or in part (but not with respect to priority of entitlement to insurance proceeds or any award in condemnation) to any one or more, or to all, Leases upon the execution by Mortgagee and recording or registration thereof, at any time hereafter, in the Office of the Recorder in and for the county wherein the Premises are situated, or such other office as determined by Mortgagee, of a unilateral declaration to that

effect.
(i) In the event that maturity of the Indebtedness is accelerated by Mortgagee because of the occurrence of an Event of Default hereunder and a tender of payment is made by or on behalf of Mortgagor in the amount necessary to satisfy the Indebtedness at any time prior to judicial confirmation or other conclusion if confirmation is not required, of a foreclosure sale or sale under a power of sale, then such tender shall constitute a prepayment under the Notes and shall, to the extent specified in each respective Note, require payment of the prepayment premium provided for in each Note.
(j) All agreements between Mortgagor and Mortgagee and/or Lenders (including, without limitation, those contained in this Mortgage and the Notes) are expressly limited so that in no event whatsoever shall the amount paid or agreed to be paid to Mortgagee and/or Lenders exceed the highest lawful rate of interest permissible under the laws of the State of Illinois. If, from any circumstances whatsoever, fulfillment of any provision hereof or the Notes or any other documents securing the Indebtedness at the time performance of such provision shall be due, shall involve the payment of interest exceeding the highest rate of interest permitted by law which a court of competent jurisdiction may deem applicable hereto, then, ipso facto, the obligation to be fulfilled shall be reduced to the highest lawful rate of interest permissible under the laws of the State of Illinois and if for any reason whatsoever Mortgagee or any Lender shall ever receive as interest an amount which would be deemed unlawful, such interest shall be applied to the payment of the last maturing installment or installments of the principal Indebtedness (whether or not then due and payable) and not to the payment of interest.
(k) Mortgagor covenants and agrees that it shall constitute an Event of Default hereunder if any of the proceeds of the Loans will be used, or were used, as the case may be, for the purpose (whether immediate, incidental or ultimate) of “purchasing” or “carrying” any “margin security” as such terms are defined in Regulation G of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (12 CFR Part 207) or for the purpose of reducing or retiring any indebtedness which was originally incurred for any such purpose.
(l) Mortgagor shall not enter into any contract with any contractor or subcontractor (each as defined in the Illinois Mechanics Lien Act, 770 ILCS 60/0 et seq.) in connection with Mortgagor’s obligations under the Purchase and Sale Agreement, but instead shall cause Mortgagor’s affiliate, 330 Redevelopment LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (hereinafter referred to as “330 Redevelopment”), to enter into all of said contracts. In addition, Mortgagor shall give the Mortgagee prior written notice before it or any of its affiliates, including, without limitation, 330 Redevelopment, enters into any contract (including, without limitation, any contract entered into in connection with Mortgagor’s obligations under the Purchase and Sale Agreement) or before Mortgagor permits any tenant or other person to enter into a contract with any contractor or subcontractor (each as defined in the Illinois Mechanics Lien Act, 770 ILCS 60/0 et seq.) for improvements upon the Premises. Each such contract described in this Paragraph 44(l) shall be subject to Mortgagee’s prior express written approval.
(m) Mortgagor shall not contract with or permit any tenant or other person, including, without limitation, 330 Redevelopment, to contract with any contractor or subcontractor, unless: (i) such contract expressly provides that the rights granted to such contractor are subordinate to the lien of this Mortgage, to the fullest extent permitted by law; and (ii) such contract requires the contractor to disclose such subordination to each subcontractor in compliance with Section 21 of the Mechanics Lien Act.
(n) Mortgagee reserves the right to require all payments (from any source whatsoever) to be made to any contractor or subcontractor described in the foregoing Paragraphs 44(l) and (m) during the entire term of the Indebtedness to be funded through an escrow with Chicago Title Insurance Company,
- 36 –
[MORTGAGE, ASSIGNMENT OF LEASES, SECURITY AGREEMENT AND FIXTURE FILING]
ING No. 28193
GECC No. 690081960
or such other title insurance company as Mortgagor shall select and as shall be reasonably approved by Mortgagee (hereinafter referred to as the “Title Insurer”). Said construction escrow agreement shall: (i) be subject to Mortgagee’s prior express written approval, acting in Mortgagee’s reasonable discretion, (ii) provide that the Title Insurer shall agree to fund all disbursements directly to the contractor and subcontractor, as applicable, and (iii) provide that, with each disbursement of more than $10,000.00, the Title Insurer will provide an endorsement to the Mortgagee’s existing policy of title insurance, insuring the lien of this Mortgage, free and clear of any encumbrances arising out of the work.
(o) Mortgagor hereby agrees that it shall not amend, modify, alter, terminate, replace, or supplement that certain Construction Loan Escrow Trust and Disbursing Agreement dated of even date herewith, executed by and between Mortgagor, as owner, and the Title Insurer, as escrow agent, with respect to “Seller’s Turnover Work” (as such term is defined in the Purchase and Sale Agreement).
45. ERISA Compliance. Mortgagor hereby represents, warrants and agrees that as of the date hereof, none of the investors in or owners of Mortgagor is (a) an employee benefit plan as defined in Section 3 (3) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (hereinafter referred to as “ERISA”), (b) a plan as defined in Section 4975(e)(1) of the Internal Revenue code of 1986, as amended, nor (c) an entity the assets of which are deemed to include plan assets pursuant to Department of Labor Regulation Section 2510.3-101. Mortgagor further represents, warrants and agrees that it does not and shall not, during the entire term of the Indebtedness, hold “plan assets” (as such term is defined in Department of Labor Regulation Section 2510.3-101(c)). If at any time during the term of the Loans any of the investors in or owners of Mortgagor shall include a plan or entity described in the first sentence of this Paragraph 46, Mortgagor shall as soon as reasonably possible following an investment by such plan or entity provide an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to Mortgagee (or such other evidence acceptable to Mortgagee in its sole and absolute discretion) indicating that the assets of Mortgagor are not deemed to include “plan assets” within the meaning of Department of Labor Regulation Section 2510.3-101.
46. Rights Subject to Intercreditor Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Mortgage, all rights of Lender A and Lender B to collect and apply any amounts due under the Notes and the other Loan Documents, including, without limitation, the right to collect amounts due to such parties in connection with any foreclosure of this Mortgage, shall be subject to the terms, conditions, and provisions of that certain Intercreditor Agreement dated of even date herewith executed by and among Mortgagee and Lenders, as it may be from time to time amended, modified, extended, renewed, substituted, and/or supplemented.
47. Right to Obtain Partial Release of Mortgage. Upon Mortgagor’s satisfaction of all of the terms, conditions, and provisions of Paragraph 7(ii) and Paragraph 29 of each of the Notes, Mortgagee shall release the “Fourteenth Floor” (as such term is defined in the Notes) from the lien of this Mortgage; provided, however, that this Mortgage shall remain in full force and effect with respect to the reminder of the Premises.
48. Additional Covenants Regarding the Purchase and Sale Agreement. At all times during the term of the Loans, Mortgagor hereby covenants and agrees as follows:
(a) Mortgagor shall comply with all of the terms, conditions, and provisions of the Purchase and Sale Agreement; and
(b) In the event Mortgagor has any approval rights over any contracts or other agreements entered into by the Purchaser, its successors and/or assigns, whether pursuant to or in connection with the

Purchase and Sale Agreement or otherwise in connection with the Premises and/or the Hotel Property, Mortgagor shall not provide such consent without first receiving the prior express written consent of Mortgagee.
