or other improvement which may be constructed on the Property and promptly

regulation.
1.03 Required Insurance. To at all times provide, maintain and keep in
force the following policies of insurance:
(a) Insurance against loss or damage to the Improvements by fire and
any of the risks covered by insurance of the type now known as "fire and
extended coverage", in an amount not less than the full replacement cost of
the Improvements (exclusive of the cost of excavations, foundations and
footing below the lowest basement floor); and with not more than Five
Thousand Dollars ($5,000) deductible from the loss payable for any
casualty. The policies of insurance carried in accordance with this
subparagraph (a) shall contain the "Replacement Cost Endorsement";
(b) Comprehensive public liability insurance (including coverage for
elevators and escalators, if any, on the Mortgaged Property) on an
"occurrence basis" against claims for "personal injury" including, without
limitation, bodily injury, death or property damage occurring on, in or
about the Mortgaged Property and the adjoining streets, sidewalks and
passageways, such insurance to afford immediate minimum protection to a
limit of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) per occurrence with respect to
personal injury or death to any one or more persons or damage to property;
(c) During the course of any construction or repair of improvements on
the Property, builder's completed value risk insurance against "all risks
of physical loss", including collapse and transit coverage, during
construction of such improvements, with

"permission to occupy upon completion of work or occupancy" endorsement;
(d) During the course of any construction or repair of Improvements on
the Property, worker's compensation insurance (including employer's
liability insurance, if requested by Mortgagee) for all employees of
Mortgagor engaged on or with respect to the Mortgaged Property in such
amount as is customarily maintained by companies engaged in business
similar to that of the Mortgagor, or, if such limits are established by
law, in such amounts;
(e) Flood insurance, if and to the extent required by law;
(f) Such other insurance, and in such amounts, as may from time to
time be customarily maintained by companies engaged in business similar to
that of the Mortgagor against the same or other hazards; Mortgagee shall be
listed as an additional insured under the insurance required under
Paragraph 1.03(b). The insurance required by Paragraph 1.03(a) and (c)
shall include a standard mortgagee clause in favor of and in form
acceptable to Mortgagee.
All policies of insurance required by the terms of this Mortgage shall
contain an endorsement or agreement by the insurer that any loss shall be
payable in accordance with the terms of such policy notwithstanding any act or
negligence of Mortgagor which might otherwise result in forfeiture of said
insurance and the further agreement of the insurer waiving all rights of set
off, counterclaim or deductions against Mortgagor.
1.04 Delivery of Policies, Payment of Premiums. That all policies of
insurance shall be issued by companies and in amounts in each company
customarily maintained by companies engaged in business similar to that of the
Mortgagor. All policies of insurance shall have attached thereto a lender's loss
payable endorsement for the benefit of Mortgagee in form satisfactory to
Mortgagee. Mortgagor shall furnish Mortgagee with an original policy or
certified copies of all policies of required insurance. If Mortgagee consents to
Mortgagor providing any of the required insurance through blanket policies
carried by Mortgagor and covering more than one location, then Mortgagor shall
furnish Mortgagee with a certificate of insurance for each such policy setting
forth the coverage, the limits of liability, the name of the carrier, the policy
number, and the expiration date. Within ten (10) days of the Mortgagee's receipt
of a notice of cancellation or expiration of insurance, Mortgagor shall furnish
Mortgagee with evidence satisfactory to Mortgagee of the payment of premium and
the reissuance of a policy continuing insurance in force as required by this
Mortgage. All such policies shall contain a provision that such policies will
not be cancelled, amended, altered, changed or modified, nor shall any coverage
therein be reduced, deleted, amended, modified, changed or cancelled by either
the party named as the insured, or the insurance company issuing the policy
without at least thirty (30) days prior written notice to Mortgagee. In the
event Mortgagor fails to provide, maintain, keep in force or deliver and furnish
to Mortgagee the policies of insurance required by this Section, Mortgagee may
procure such insurance or single-interest insurance for such risks covering
Mortgagee's interest, and Mortgagor will pay all premiums thereon promptly upon
demand by Mortgagee, and until such payment is made by Mortgagor the amount of
all such premiums together with interest thereon at the highest default rate
provided in the Notes, shall be secured by this Mortgage. After the occurrence
of an event of default hereunder and at the request of Mortgagee, Mortgagor
shall: (a) deposit with Mortgagee in monthly installments, an amount equal to
one-twelfth (1/12) of the estimated aggregate annual insurance premiums on all
policies of insurance required by this Mortgage, and (b) cause all bills,
statements or other documents relating to the foregoing insurance premiums to be
sent or mailed directly to Mortgagee. Upon receipt of such bills, statements or
other documents, and providing Mortgagor has deposited sufficient funds with
Mortgagee pursuant to this Section 1.04, Mortgagee shall pay such amounts as may
be due thereunder out of the funds so deposited with Mortgagee. If at any time
and for any reason the funds deposited with Mortgagee are or will be
insufficient to pay such amounts as may then or subsequently be due, Mortgagee
shall notify Mortgagor and Mortgagor shall immediately deposit an amount equal
to such deficiency with Mortgagee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing
contained herein shall cause Mortgagee to be deemed a trustee of said funds or
to be obligated to pay any amounts in excess of the amount of funds deposited
with Mortgagee pursuant to this Section 1.04. Mortgagee may commingle said
reserve with its own funds and Mortgagor shall be entitled to no interest
thereon.
1.05 Insurance Proceeds. That after the happening of any casualty to the
Mortgaged Property or any part thereof, Mortgagor shall give prompt written
notice thereof to Mortgagee.
(a) In the event of any damage or destruction to the Improvements,
Mortgagee shall receive the entire proceeds of any insurance payable on
account thereof, provided, however, so long as no uncured event of default
exists under the terms of the Loan Instruments and such damage or
destruction can be repaired in a reasonable time and in any event prior to
the maturity date of the Notes, such proceeds shall, at the option of
Mortgagor, be made available to restore the Improvements to the same
condition as existed immediately prior to such casualty. In the event such
proceeds are insufficient to effect such restoration, Mortgagee shall have
no obligation to make such proceeds available to restore the Improvements
unless the Mortgagor furnishes satisfactory evidence of the availability of
funds to complete such restoration. Provided, further, in the event that
such insurance proceeds exceed the total cost of restoration, such excess
proceeds shall be retained by Mortgagee and applied to reduce the then
outstanding indebtedness evidenced by the Notes.
(b) In the event of such loss or damage, all proceeds of insurance
shall be payable to Mortgagee, and Mortgagor hereby authorizes and directs
any affected insurance company to make payment of such proceeds directly to
Mortgagee. After consultation with Mortgagor, Mortgagee is hereby
authorized and empowered by Mortgagor to settle, adjust or compromise any
claims for loss, damage or destruction under any policy or policies of
insurance.
(c) Except to the extent that insurance proceeds are received by
Mortgagee and applied to payment in full of the indebtedness secured
hereby, nothing herein contained shall be deemed to excuse Mortgagor from
repairing or maintaining the Mortgaged Property as provided in Section 1.02
hereof or restoring all damage or destruction to the Mortgaged Property,
regardless of whether or not there are insurance

proceeds available or whether any such proceeds are sufficient in
amount, and the application or release by Mortgagee of any insurance
proceeds shall not cure or waive any default or notice of default under
this Mortgage or invalidate any act done pursuant to such notice.
(d) Any insurance proceeds that are to be applied under the
terms of this Mortgage for restoration of the Improvements shall be
disbursed by Mortgagee in accordance with its standard disbursement
procedures for construction loans.
1.06 Assignment of Policies Upon Foreclosure. In the event of
foreclosure of this Mortgage or other transfer of title or assignment of the
Mortgaged Property in extinguishment, in whole or in part, of the debt secured
hereby, all right, title and interest of Mortgagor in and to all policies of
insurance required by this Section shall inure to the benefit of and pass to the
successor in interest to Mortgagor or the purchaser or grantee of the Mortgaged
Property.
1.07 Indemnification; Subrogation; Waiver of Offset.
(a) If Mortgagee is made a party defendant to any litigation
concerning this Mortgage or the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof
or interest therein, or the occupancy thereof by Mortgagor, then
Mortgagor shall indemnify, defend and hold Mortgagee harmless from all
liability by reason of said litigation, including reasonable attorneys'
fees and expenses incurred by Mortgagee in any such litigation, whether
or not any such litigation is prosecuted to judgment, except for
liability caused by Mortgagee's gross negligence or wilful misconduct.
If Mortgagee commences an action against Mortgagor to enforce any of
the terms hereof or because of the breach by Mortgagor of any of the
terms hereof, or for the recovery of any sum secured hereby, Mortgagor
shall pay to Mortgagee reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses, and the
right to such attorneys' fees and expenses shall be deemed to have
accrued on the commencement of such action, and shall be enforceable
whether or not such action is prosecuted to judgment. If Mortgagor
breaches any term of this Mortgage, Mortgagee may employ an attorney or
attorneys to protect its rights hereunder, and in the event of such
employment following any breach by Mortgagor, Mortgagor shall pay
Mortgagee reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses incurred by
Mortgagee, whether or not an action is actually commenced against
Mortgagor by reason of breach; (b) Mortgagor waives any and all right
to claim or recover against Mortgagee, its officers, employees, agents
and representatives, for loss of or damage to Mortgagor, the Mortgaged
Property, Mortgagor's property or the property of others under
Mortgagor's control from any cause insured against or required to be
insured against by the provisions of this Mortgage; (c) All sums
payable by Mortgagor hereunder shall be paid without notice, demand,
counterclaim, setoff, deduction or defense and without abatement,
suspension, deferment, diminution or reduction, and the obligations and
liabilities of Mortgagor hereunder shall in no way be released,
discharged or otherwise affected (except as expressly provided herein)
by reason of: (i) any damage to or destruction of or any condemnation
or similar taking of the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof; (ii)
any restriction or prevention of or interference with any use of the
Mortgaged Property or any
part thereof; (iii) any title defect or encumbrance or any eviction from the
Property or the Improvements or any part thereof by title paramount or
otherwise; (iv) any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, composition,
adjustment, dissolution, liquidation or other like proceeding relating to
Mortgagor, or any action taken with respect to this Mortgage by any trustee or
receiver of Mortgagor, or by any court, in any such proceeding; (v) any claim
which Mortgagor has or might have against Mortgagee; (vi) any default or failure
on the part of Mortgagee to perform or comply with any of the terms hereof or of
any other agreement with Mortgagor; or (vii) any other occurrence whatsoever,
whether similar or dissimilar to the foregoing; whether or not Mortgagor shall
have notice or knowledge of any of the foregoing. Except as expressly provided
herein, to the extent permitted by applicable law, Mortgagor waives all rights
now or hereafter conferred by statute or otherwise to any abatement, suspension,
deferment, diminution or reduction of any sum secured hereby and payable by
Mortgagor.
1.08 Taxes and Impositions.
(a) Mortgagor agrees to pay, prior to delinquency, all real property taxes
and assessments, general and special, and all other taxes and assessments of any
kind or nature whatsoever, including without limitation, nongovernmental levies
or assessments such as maintenance charges, owner association dues or charges or
fees, levies or charges resulting from covenants, conditions and restrictions
affecting the Mortgaged Property, which are assessed or imposed upon the
Mortgaged Property, or become due and payable, and which create, may create or
appear to create a lien upon the Mortgaged Property, or any part thereof, or
upon any Personal Property, equipment or other facility used in the operation or
maintenance thereof (all of which taxes, assessments and other governmental
charges of like nature are hereinafter referred to as "Impositions"); provided,
however, that if, by law, any such Imposition is payable, or may at the option
of the taxpayer be paid, in installments, Mortgagor may pay the same together
with any accrued interest on the unpaid balance of such Imposition in
installments as the same become due and before any fine, penalty, interest or
cost may be added thereto for the nonpayment of any such installment and
interest;
(b) If at any time after the date hereof there shall be assessed or imposed
(i) a tax or assessment on the Mortgaged Property in lieu of or in addition to
the Impositions payable by Mortgagor pursuant to subparagraph (a) hereof, or
(ii) a license fee, franchise fee, tax or assessment imposed on Mortgagee and
measured by or based in whole or in part upon the amount of the outstanding
obligations secured hereby, then all such taxes, assessments or fees shall be
deemed to be included within the term "Impositions" as defined in subparagraph
(a) hereof, and Mortgagor shall pay and discharge the same as herein provided
with respect to the payment of Impositions. Anything to the contrary herein
notwithstanding, Mortgagor shall have no obligation to pay any franchise,
estate, inheritance, income, intangibles, excess profits or similar tax levied
on Mortgagee or on the obligations secured hereby;
(c) Subject to the provisions of subparagraph (d) of this Section 1.08,
Mortgagor covenants to furnish Mortgagee within twenty (20) days after
Mortgagee's written request to Mortgagor, official receipts of the appropriate
taxing authority, or other
proof satisfactory to Mortgagee, evidencing the payments of any such Impositions
that were due and payable;
(d) Mortgagor shall have the right before any delinquency occurs to contest
or object to the amount or validity of any such Imposition by appropriate legal
proceedings, but this shall not be deemed or construed in any way as relieving,
modifying or extending Mortgagor's covenant to pay any such Imposition at the
time and in the manner provided in this Section 1.08, unless Mortgagor has given
prior written notice to Mortgagee of Mortgagor's intent to so contest or object
to an Imposition, and unless, at Mortgagee's sole option, (i) Mortgagor shall
demonstrate to Mortgagee's satisfaction that the legal proceedings shall
conclusively operate to prevent the sale of the Mortgaged Property, or any part
thereof, to satisfy such Imposition prior to final determination of such
proceedings; or (ii) Mortgagor shall furnish a good and sufficient bond or
surety as requested by and satisfactory to Mortgagee; or (iii) Mortgagor shall
have provided a good and sufficient undertaking as may be required or permitted
by law to accomplish a stay of such proceedings;
(e) After the occurrence of an event of default hereunder and at the
request of Mortgagee, Mortgagor shall pay to Mortgagee, on the first (1st) day
of each month, an amount equal to one-twelfth (1/12) of the annual Impositions
reasonably estimated by Mortgagee to pay the installment of taxes next due on
the Mortgaged Property. In such event, Mortgagor further agrees to cause all
bills, statements or other documents relating to Impositions to be sent or
mailed directly to Mortgagee. Upon receipt of such bills, statements or other
documents, and providing Mortgagor has deposited sufficient funds with Mortgagee
pursuant to this Section 1.08, Mortgagee shall pay such amounts as may be due
thereunder out of the funds so deposited with Mortgagee. If at any time and for
any reason the funds deposited with Mortgagee are or will be insufficient to pay
such amounts as may then or subsequently be due, Mortgagee shall notify
Mortgagor and Mortgagor shall immediately deposit an amount equal to such
deficiency with Mortgagee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained
herein shall cause Mortgagee to be deemed a trustee of said funds or to be
obligated to pay any amounts in excess of the amount of funds deposited with
Mortgagee pursuant to this Section 1.08. Mortgagee shall not be obliged to pay
or allow any interest on any sums held by Mortgagee pending disbursement or
application hereunder, and Mortgagee may impound or reserve for future payment
of Impositions such portion of such payments as Mortgagee may in its absolute
discretion deem proper, applying the balance on the principal of or interest on
the obligations secured hereby. Should Mortgagor fail to deposit with Mortgagee
(exclusive of that portion of said payments which has been applied by Mortgagee
on the principal of or interest on the indebtedness secured by the Loan
Instruments) sums sufficient to fully pay such Impositions at least thirty (30)
days before delinquency thereof, Mortgagee may, at Mortgagee's election, but
without any obligation so to do, advance any amounts required to make up the
deficiency, which advances, if any, shall be secured hereby and shall be
repayable to Mortgagee as herein elsewhere provided, or at the option of
Mortgagee the latter may, without making any advance whatever, apply any sums
held by it upon any obligation of the Mortgagor secured hereby. Should any
default occur or exist on the part of the Mortgagor in the payment or
performance of any of Mortgagor's obligations under the terms of the
Loan Instruments, Mortgagee may, at any time at Mortgagee's option,
apply any sums or amounts in its hands received pursuant hereto, or as
rents or income of the Mortgaged Property or otherwise, upon any
indebtedness or obligation of the Mortgagor secured hereby in such
manner and order as Mortgagee may elect. The receipt, use or
application of any such sums paid by Mortgagor to Mortgagee hereunder
shall not be construed to affect the maturity of any indebtedness
secured by this Mortgage or any of the rights or powers of Mortgagee
under the terms of the Loan Instruments or any of the obligations of
Mortgagor under this Mortgage;
(f) Mortgagor covenants and agrees not to suffer, permit or initiate
the joint assessment of the real and personal property, or any other
procedure whereby the lien of the real property taxes and the lien of the
personal property taxes shall be assessed, levied or charged to the
Mortgaged Property as a single lien; and
(g) If requested by Mortgagee, Mortgagor shall cause to be furnished
to Mortgagee a tax reporting service covering the Mortgaged Property of the
type, duration and with a company satisfactory to Mortgagee.
1.09 Utilities. To pay when due all utility charges which are incurred
by Mortgagor for the benefit of the Mortgaged Property or which may become a
charge or lien against the Mortgaged Property for gas, electricity, water or
sewer services furnished to the Mortgaged Property and all other assessments or
charges of a similar nature, whether public or private, affecting the Mortgaged
Property or any portion thereof, whether or not such taxes, assessments or
charges are liens thereon.
1.10 Ground Leases. To pay when due all rents and other payments and
perform all covenants and agreements contained in any lease, sublease or ground
lease which may constitute a portion of or an interest in the Property; not to
surrender, assign or sublease any such lease, sublease or ground lease, nor take
any other action which would effect or permit the termination of any such lease,
sublease or ground lease. Mortgagor covenants to furnish to Mortgagee within
thirty (30) days after the date upon which such rents or other payments are due
and payable by Mortgagor, receipts or other evidence satisfactory to Mortgagee
evidencing the payment thereof.
1.11 Actions Affecting Mortgaged Property. To appear in and contest any
action or proceeding purporting to affect the security hereof or the rights or
powers of Mortgagee; and to pay all costs and expenses, including costs of
evidence of title and attorney's fees, in any such action or proceeding in which
Mortgagee may appear.
1.12 Actions by Mortgagee to Preserve Mortgaged Property. That should
Mortgagor fail to make any payment or to do any act that constitutes an event of
default under any of the Loan Instruments, Mortgagee in its own discretion,
without obligation so to do, after written notice to Mortgagor, and without
releasing Mortgagor from any obligation, may make or do the same in such manner
and to such extent as may be deemed necessary to protect the security hereof. In
connection therewith (without limiting its general powers), Mortgagee shall have
and is hereby given the right, but not the obligation, (i) to enter upon and
take possession of the Mortgaged Property in accordance with applicable law,
(ii) to make additions, alterations, repairs and improvements to the Mortgaged
Property which it may consider necessary or proper
to keep the Mortgaged Property in good condition and repair; (iii) to appear and
participate in any action or proceeding affecting or which may affect the
security hereof or the rights or powers of Mortgagee; (iv) to pay, purchase,
contest or compromise any encumbrance, claim, charge, lien or debt which in the
judgment of it may affect or appears to affect the security of this Mortgage or
be prior or superior hereto; and (v) in exercising such powers, to pay necessary
expenses, including employment of counsel or other necessary or desirable
consultants. Mortgagor shall, immediately upon demand therefor by Mortgagee, pay
all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Mortgagee in connection with the
exercise by Mortgagee of the foregoing rights, including, without limitation,
costs of evidence of title, court costs, appraisals, surveys and reasonable
attorneys' fees.
1.13 Survival of Warranties. To fully and faithfully satisfy and
perform the obligations of Mortgagor contained in the Credit Agreement, and each
agreement of Mortgagor incorporated by reference therein or herein, and any
modification or amendment thereof. All representations, warranties and covenants
of Mortgagor contained therein or incorporated by reference shall survive the
advances evidenced by the Notes and shall remain continuing obligations,
warranties and representations of Mortgagor during any time when any portion of
the obligations secured by this Mortgage remain outstanding.
1.14 Eminent Domain. That should the Mortgaged Property, or any part
thereof or interest therein, be taken or damaged by reason of any public
improvement or condemnation proceeding, or in any other manner ("Condemnation"),
or should Mortgagor receive any notice or other information regarding such
proceeding, Mortgagor shall give prompt written notice thereof to Mortgagee.
(a) Mortgagee shall be entitled to all compensation, awards
and other payments or relief therefor, and shall be entitled at its
option to commence, appear in and prosecute in its own name any such
action or proceeding. Upon consultation with Mortgagor, Mortgagee shall
also be entitled to make any compromise or settlement in connection
with such taking or damage. All such compensation, awards, damages,
rights of action and proceeds awarded to Mortgagor (the "Proceeds") are
hereby assigned to Mortgagee and Mortgagor agrees to execute such
further assignments of the Proceeds as Mortgagee may require.
(b) In the event any portion of the Mortgaged Property is so
taken or damaged, Mortgagee shall have the option, in its sole and
absolute discretion, to apply all such Proceeds, after deducting
therefrom all costs and expenses (regardless of the particular nature
thereof and whether incurred with or without suit), including
attorneys' fees, incurred by it in connection with such Proceeds, upon
any indebtedness secured hereby and in such order as Mortgagee may
determine, or to apply all such Proceeds, after such deductions, to the
restoration of the Mortgaged Property upon such conditions as Mortgagee
may determine. Such application or release shall not cure or waive any
default or notice of default hereunder or invalidate any act done
pursuant to such notice.
1.15 Additional Security. That in the event Mortgagee at any time
holds additional security for any of the obligations secured hereby, it may
enforce the sale thereof or otherwise realize upon the same, at its option,
either before or concurrently herewith or after a sale is made hereunder.
1.16 Successors and Assigns. That this Mortgage applies to, inures to
the benefit of, and binds all parties hereto, their heirs, legatees, devisees,
administrators, executors, successors and assigns.
1.17 Inspections. That Mortgagee, or its agents, representatives or

1.18 Liens. To pay when due, at Mortgagor's cost and expense, all
liens, encumbrances and charges upon the Mortgaged Property, or any part thereof
or interest therein; provided that the existence of any mechanic's, laborer's,
materialman's, supplier's, or vendor's lien or right thereto shall not
constitute a violation of this Section if payment is not yet due under the
contract which is the foundation thereof and if such contract does not postpone
payment for more than fifty-five (55) days after the performance thereof.
Mortgagor shall have the right to contest in good faith the validity of any such
lien, encumbrance or charge, provided Mortgagor shall first deposit with
Mortgagee a bond or other security satisfactory to Mortgagee in such amounts as
Mortgagee shall reasonably require, but not more than one and one-half of the
amount of the claim, and provided further, that Mortgagor shall thereafter
diligently proceed to cause such lien, encumbrance or charge to be removed and
discharged. If Mortgagor shall fail to discharge any such lien, encumbrance or
charge, then, in addition to any other right or remedy of Mortgagee, Mortgagee
may, but shall not be obligated to, discharge the same, either by paying the
amount claimed to be due, or by procuring the discharge of such lien by
depositing in court a bond for the amount claimed or otherwise giving security
for such claim, or in such manner as is or may be prescribed by law.
1.19 Mortgagee's Powers. Without affecting the liability of any other
person liable for the payment of any obligation herein mentioned, and without

Mortgagor intends to operate the Mortgaged Property, and representing and
warranting that Mortgagor does business under no other tradenames with respect
to the Mortgaged Property. Mortgagor shall immediately notify Mortgagee in
writing of any change in said tradenames, and will, upon request of Mortgagee,
execute any additional financing statements and other certificates revised to
reflect the change in tradename.
1.21 Reimbursement for Expenses. Mortgagor shall pay all costs

damage (real or personal) arising out of or related to such Hazardous
Materials;
(3) any lawsuit brought or threatened, settlement reached or
governmental order relating to such Hazardous Materials; and/or
(4) any violation of laws, orders, regulations, requirements or
demands of government authorities, which are based upon or in any way

lieu of foreclosure, Mortgagor shall deliver the Mortgaged Property to Mortgagee
free of any and all Hazardous Materials so that the condition of the Mortgaged
Property shall conform with all applicable federal, state and local laws,
ordinances, rules or regulations affecting the Mortgaged Property. For purposes
of this Mortgage, "Hazardous Materials" includes, without limitation, any

Instruments and the satisfaction of all of the other obligations of Mortgagor
hereunder and under the other Loan Instruments.
Article 2. ASSIGNMENT OF RENTS, ISSUES AND PROFITS
2.01 Assignment of Rents. Mortgagor hereby assigns and transfers to
Mortgagee all the rents, issues and profits of the Mortgaged Property, and
hereby gives to and confers upon Mortgagee the right, power and authority to
collect such rents, issues and profits. Mortgagor irrevocably appoints Mortgagee
its true and lawful attorney-in-fact, at the option of Mortgagee at any time and
from time to time, to demand, receive and enforce payment, to give receipts,
releases and satisfactions, and to xxx, in the name of Mortgagor or Mortgagee,
for all such rents, issues and profits and apply the same to the indebtedness
secured hereby; provided, however, that Mortgagor shall have the right to
collect such rents, issues and profits (but not more than two months in advance)
prior to or at any time there is not an event of default under any of the Loan
Instruments. The assignment of the rents, issues and profits of the Mortgaged
Property in this Article II is intended to be an absolute assignment from
Mortgagor to Mortgagee and not merely the passing of a security interest;
provided that Mortgagee shall not have the right to collect the same until there
has been a default by the Mortgagor under any of the covenants of the Loan
Instruments.
2.02 Collection Upon Default. Upon any event of default under any of
the Loan Instruments, Mortgagee may, at any time without notice, either in
person, by agent or by a receiver appointed by a court, and without regard to
the adequacy of any security for the indebtedness hereby secured, enter upon and
take possession of the Mortgaged Property, or any part thereof, in its own name
xxx for or otherwise collect such rents, issues and profits, including those
past due and unpaid, and apply the same, less costs and expenses of operation
and collection, including attorneys' fees, upon any indebtedness secured hereby,
and in such order as Mortgagee may determine. The collection of such rents,
issues and profits, or the entering upon and taking possession of the Mortgaged
Property, or the application thereof as aforesaid, shall not cure or waive any
default or notice of default hereunder or invalidate any act done in response to
such default or pursuant to such notice of default.
2.03 Assignment of Leases. Mortgagor hereby assigns and transfers to
Mortgagee as additional security for the payment of the indebtedness secured
hereby, all present and future leases and subleases of all or any part of the
Mortgaged Property and agrees to execute and deliver, at the request of
Mortgagee, all such further assurances and assignments of the Mortgaged Property
as Mortgagee shall from time to time require. In the event Mortgagor, as such
additional security has sold, transferred and assigned, or may hereafter sell,
transfer and assign, to Mortgagee, its successors and assigns, any interest of
Mortgagor as lessor in any lease or leases, Mortgagor expressly covenants and
agrees that if Mortgagor, as lessor under said lease or leases so assigned shall
fail to perform and fulfill any term, covenant, condition or provision in said
lease or leases, or any of them, on its part to be performed or fulfilled, at
the times and in the manner in said lease or leases provided, or if Mortgagor
shall suffer or permit to occur any breach or default under the provisions of
any such assignment of any lease or leases, then and in
any such event, such breach or default shall constitute an event of default
hereunder as such term is defined in Section 4.01 hereof.
2.04 Mortgagee's Right of Possession in Case of Default. In any case in
which under the provisions of this Mortgage Mortgagee has a right to institute
foreclosure proceedings, whether before or after the whole principal sum secured
hereby is declared to be immediately due, or whether before or after the
institution of legal proceedings to foreclose the lien hereof or before or after
sale thereunder, forthwith, upon demand of Mortgagee, Mortgagor shall surrender
to Mortgagee and Mortgagee shall be entitled to take actual possession of the
Mortgaged Property or any part thereof personally, or by its agent or attorneys,
as for condition broken. In such event Mortgagee in its discretion may, with
process of law, enter upon and take and maintain possession of all or any part
of the Mortgaged Property, together with all documents, books, records, papers,
and accounts of Mortgagor or then owner of the Mortgaged Property relating
thereto, and may exclude Mortgagor, its agents or servants, wholly therefrom and
may as attorney in fact or agent of Mortgagor, or in its own name as Mortgagee
and under the powers herein granted, hold, operate, manage and control the
Mortgaged Property and conduct the business, if any, thereof, either personally
or by its agents, and with full power to use such measures, legal or equitable,
as in its discretion or in the discretion of its successors or assigns, may be
deemed proper or necessary to enforce the payment or security of the avails,
rents, issues, and profits of the Mortgaged Property, including actions for the
recovery of rent, actions in forcible detainer and actions in distress for rent,
and with full power: (a) to cancel or terminate any lease or sublease for any
cause or on any ground which would entitle Mortgagor to cancel the same; (b) to
elect to disaffirm any lease or sublease which is then subordinate to the lien
hereof; (c) 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 lessees to extend or renew terms to expire, beyond the
maturity date of the indebtedness hereunder 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 Mortgaged Property are subject to the lien hereof
and upon the purchaser or purchasers at any foreclosure sale, notwithstanding
any redemption from sale, discharge of the indebtedness secured hereby,
satisfaction of any foreclosure decree, or issuance of any certificate of sale
or deed to any purchaser; (d) to make all necessary or proper repairs,
decorating, renewals, replacements, alterations, additions, betterments and
improvements to the Mortgaged Property as to it may seem judicious; (e) to
insure and reinsure the same and all risks incidental to Mortgagee's possession,
operation and management thereof; and (f) to receive all of such avails, rents,
issues and profits; hereby granting full power and authority to exercise each
and every of the rights, privileges and powers herein granted at any and all
times hereafter, without notice to Mortgagor.
Mortgagee shall not be obligated to perform or discharge, nor does it
hereby undertake to perform or discharge, any obligation, duty or liability
under any leases. Mortgagor shall and does hereby agree to indemnify and hold
Mortgagee harmless of and from any and all liability, loss or damage which it
may or might incur under said leases or under or by reason of the assignment
thereof and of and from any and all claims and demands whatsoever which may be
asserted against it by reason of any alleged obligations or undertakings on its
part to perform or
discharge any of the terms, covenants or agreements contained in said leases,
except for liabilities, losses or damages caused by Mortgagee's gross negligence
or wilful misconduct. Should Mortgagee incur any such liability, loss or damage,
under said leases or under or by reason of the assignment thereof, or in the
defense of any claims or demands, the amount thereof, including costs, expenses
and reasonable attorneys' fees, shall be secured hereby, and Mortgagor shall
reimburse Mortgagee therefor immediately upon demand.
2.05 Application of Income Received by Mortgagee. Mortgagee, in the
exercise of the rights and powers hereinabove conferred upon it by Section 2.01
and Section 2.04 hereof, shall have full power to use and apply the avails,
rents, issues and profits of the Mortgaged Property to the payment of or on
account of the following, in such order as Mortgagee may determine:
(a) to the payment of the operating expenses of the Mortgaged
Property, including cost of management and leasing thereof (which
shall include reasonable compensation to Mortgagee and its agent or
agents, if management be delegated to an agent or agents, and shall
also include lease commissions and other compensation and expenses of
seeking and procuring tenants and entering into leases), established
claims for damages, if any, and premiums on insurance hereinabove
authorized;
(b) to the payment of taxes and special assessments now due or
which may hereafter become due on the Mortgaged Property;
(c) to the payment of all repairs, decorating, renewals,
replacements, alterations, additions, betterments, and improvements of
the Property, and of placing the Mortgaged Property in such condition
as will, in the judgment of Mortgagee, make it readily rentable;
(d) to the payment of any indebtedness secured hereby or any
deficiency which may result from any foreclosure sale.

limitation, any and all property of similar type or kind hereafter located on or
at the Property for the purpose of securing all obligations of Mortgagor

or interest therein and such execution, attachment or similar process or
judgment is not released, bonded, satisfied, vacated or stayed within sixty
(60) days after its entry or levy; or

4.02 Acceleration Upon Default, Additional Remedies. Upon the occurrence of
any event of default, Mortgagee may declare all indebtedness secured hereby to
be due and payable and the same shall thereupon become immediately due and
payable without any presentment, demand, protest or notice of any kind.
Thereafter, Mortgagee may:
(a) Either in person or by agent, with or without bringing any

therefrom or protect the security hereof and, with or without taking
possession of the Mortgaged Property, xxx for or otherwise collect the

promises and agrees to promptly turn over and deliver complete
possession thereof to Mortgagee;
(ii) Without notice to or demand upon Mortgagor, make such
payments and do such acts as Mortgagee may deem necessary to protect
its security interest in the Personal Property, including without
limitation, paying, purchasing, contesting, or compromising any
encumbrance, charge or lien which is prior to or superior to the

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 or to
enforce the obligations of Mortgagee hereunder or under the Notes or the Credit
Agreement or any other instrument securing the performance of such obligations,
there shall be allowed and included as additional indebtedness in the decree for
sale or other judgment or decree all expenditures and expenses which may be paid
or incurred by or on behalf of Mortgagee for attorneys' costs and fees
(including the costs and fees of paralegals), survey charges, appraisers' fees,
inspecting engineers' and/or architects' fees, fees for environmental studies
and assessments and all additional expenses incurred by Mortgagee with respect
to environmental matters, outlays for documentary and expert evidence,
stenographers' charges, publication costs, and costs (which may be estimated as

Torrens certificates, and similar data and assurances with respect to title as
Mortgagee may deem reasonably necessary either to prosecute such suit or to

Property, including probate and bankruptcy proceedings, or in preparations for
the commencement or defense of any suit or proceeding or threatened suit or
proceeding, shall be immediately due and payable by Mortgagor, with interest
thereon at the highest default rate provided in the Notes and shall be secured
by this Mortgage.
4.04 Application of Proceeds of Foreclosure Sale. The proceeds of any

items which under the terms hereof constitute secured indebtedness additional to
that evidenced by the Notes, with interest thereon as herein provided; third,
all principal and interest remaining unpaid on the Notes; fourth, any overplus
to Mortgagor, its successors or assigns, as their rights may appear.
4.05 Appointment of Receiver. Upon, or at any time after the filing of
a complaint to foreclose this Mortgage, Mortgagee shall be entitled to the
appointment of a receiver of the Mortgaged Property by the court in which such
complaint is filed, and Mortgagor hereby consents to such appointment. Such
appointment may be made either before or after sale, without notice, without
regard to the solvency or insolvency of Mortgagor at the time of application for
such receiver and without regard to the then value of the Mortgaged Property or
whether the same shall be then occupied as a homestead or not and Mortgagee or
any holder of the Notes may be appointed as such receiver. Such receiver shall
have power: (a) to collect the rents, issues and profits of the Mortgaged
Property during the pendency of such foreclosure suit and, in case of a sale and
a deficiency, during the full statutory period of redemption, whether there be
redemption or not, as well as during any further times when Mortgagor, except
for the intervention of such receiver, would be entitled to collect such rents,
issues and profits; (b) 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 lessees to extend or renew terms to expire, beyond
the maturity date of the indebtedness hereunder 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 mortgage indebtedness, satisfaction of
any foreclosure decree, or issuance of any certificate of sale or deed to any
purchaser; and (c) all other powers which may be necessary or are usual in such
cases 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 his hands in payment in whole
or in part of: (a) the indebtedness secured hereby, or by any decree foreclosing
this mortgage, or any tax, special assessment or other lien which may be or
become superior to the lien hereof or of such decree, provided such application
is made prior to foreclosure sale; (b) the deficiency in case of a sale and
deficiency.
4.06 Remedies Not Exclusive. Mortgagee shall be entitled to enforce
payment and performance of any indebtedness or obligations secured hereby and to
exercise all rights and powers under this Mortgage or under any Credit
Instrument or other agreement or any laws now or hereafter in force,
notwithstanding some or all of the said indebtedness and obligations secured
hereby may now or hereafter be otherwise secured, whether by mortgage, deed of
trust, pledge, lien, assignment or otherwise. Neither the acceptance of this
Mortgage nor its enforcement whether by court action or pursuant to the other
powers herein contained, shall prejudice or in any manner affect Mortgagee's
right to realize upon or enforce any other security now or hereafter held by
Mortgagee, it being agreed that Mortgagee shall be entitled to enforce this
Mortgage and any other security now or hereafter held by Mortgagee in such order
and manner as Mortgagee may, in its absolute discretion determine. No remedy
herein conferred upon or reserved to Mortgagee is intended to be exclusive of
any other remedy herein or by law
provided or permitted, but each shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to
every other remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in
equity or by statute. Every power or remedy given by any of the Loan Instruments
to Mortgagee may be exercised, concurrently or independently, from time to time
and as often as may be deemed expedient by Mortgagee and Mortgagee may pursue
inconsistent remedies.
Article 5. MISCELLANEOUS
5.01 Governing Law. This Mortgage shall be governed by the laws of the
State of Indiana. In the event that any provision or clause of any of the Loan
Instruments conflicts with applicable laws, such conflicts shall not affect
other provisions of such Loan Instruments which can be given effect without the
conflicting provision, and to this end the provisions of the Loan Instruments
are declared to be severable.
5.02 Mortgagor Waiver of Rights. To the extent permitted by law,
Mortgagor waives the benefit of all laws now existing or that hereafter may be
enacted providing for (i) any appraisement before sale of any portion of the
Mortgaged Property, and (ii) the benefit of all laws that may be hereafter
enacted in any way extending the time for the enforcement of the collection of
the Notes or the debt evidenced thereby or creating or extending a period of
redemption from any sale made in collecting said debt. To the full extent
Mortgagor may do so, Mortgagor agrees that Mortgagor will not at any time insist
upon, plead, claim or take the benefit or advantage of any law now or hereafter
in force providing for any appraisement, valuation, stay, extension or
redemption, and Mortgagor, for Mortgagor, Mortgagor's heirs, devisees,
representatives, successors and assigns, and for any and all persons ever
claiming any interest in the Mortgaged Property, to the extent permitted by law,
hereby waives and releases all rights of redemption, valuation, appraisement,
stay of execution, notice of election to mature or declare due the whole of the
secured indebtedness and marshaling in the event of foreclosure of the liens
hereby created. If any law referred to in this Section and now in force, of
which Mortgagor, Mortgagor's heirs, devisees, representatives, successors and
assigns or other person might take advantage despite this Section, shall
hereafter be repealed or cease to be in force, such law shall not thereafter be
deemed to preclude the application of this Section. Mortgagor expressly waives
and relinquishes any and all rights and remedies which Mortgagor may have or be
able to assert by reason of the laws of the State of Indiana pertaining to the
rights and remedies of sureties.
5.03 Limitation of Interest. It is the intent of Mortgagor and
Mortgagee in the execution of this Mortgage and the Notes and all other
instruments securing the Notes to contract in strict compliance with the usury
laws of the State of Indiana governing the loan evidenced by the Notes. In
furtherance thereof, Mortgagee and Mortgagor stipulate and agree that none of
the terms and provisions contained in the Loan Instruments shall ever be
construed to create a contract for the use, forbearance or detention of money
requiring payment of interest at a rate in excess of the maximum interest rate
permitted to be charged by the laws of the State of Indiana governing the loan
evidenced by the Notes. Mortgagor or any guarantor, endorser or other party now
or hereafter becoming liable for the payment of the Notes shall never be liable
for unearned interest on the Notes and shall never be required to pay interest
on the Notes at a rate in excess of the maximum rate of interest that may be
lawfully charged under the laws of the State of Indiana and the provisions of
this Section shall control over all other provisions of the Notes and any
other instrument executed in connection herewith which may be in apparent
conflict herewith. In the event any holder of the Notes shall collect monies
which are deemed to constitute interest in excess of the maximum rate permitted
by the laws of the State of Indiana, all such sums deemed to constitute interest
in excess of the maximum legal rate shall be immediately returned to the
Mortgagor upon such determination.
5.04 Statements by Mortgagor. Mortgagor, within ten (10) days after
being given notice by mail, will furnish to Mortgagee a written statement
stating the unpaid principal of and interest on the Notes and any other amounts
secured by this Mortgage and stating whether any offset or defense exists
against such principal and interest.
5.05 Notices. Whenever Mortgagee or Mortgagor shall desire to give or
serve any notice, demand, request or other communication with respect to this
Mortgage, each such notice, demand, request or other communication shall be in
writing and shall be effective only if the same is delivered by personal service
or mailed by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt
requested, addressed to the address set forth at the beginning of this Mortgage.

mailing to the other parties hereto, as aforesaid, a notice of such change.
5.06 Captions. The captions or headings at the beginning of each
Section hereof are for the convenience of the parties and are not a part of this
Mortgage.
5.07 Invalidity of Certain Provisions. If the lien of this Mortgage is
invalid or unenforceable as to any part of the debt, or if the lien is invalid
or unenforceable as to any part of the Mortgaged Property, the unsecured or
partially secured portion of the debt shall be completely paid prior to the
payment of the remaining and secured or partially secured portion of the debt,
and all payments made on the debt, whether voluntary or under foreclosure or
other enforcement action or procedure, shall be considered to have been first
paid on and applied to the full payment of that portion of the debt which is not
secured or fully secured by the lien of this Mortgage.
5.08 No Merger. If both the Lessor's and Lessee's estates under any
lease or any portion thereof which constitutes a part of the Mortgaged Property
shall at any time become vested in one owner, this Mortgage and the lien created
hereby shall not be destroyed or terminated by application of the doctrine of
merger and, in such event, Mortgagee shall continue to have and enjoy all of the
rights and privileges of Mortgagee as to the separate estates. In addition, upon
the foreclosure of the lien created by this Mortgage on the Mortgaged Property
pursuant to the provisions hereof, any leases or subleases then existing and
created by Mortgagor shall not be destroyed or terminated by application of the
law of merger or as a matter of law or as a result of such foreclosure unless
Mortgagee or any purchaser at any such foreclosure sale shall so elect. No act
by or on behalf of Mortgagee or any such purchaser shall constitute a
termination of any lease or sublease unless Mortgagee or such purchaser shall
give written notice thereof to such tenant or subtenant.
5.09 Subrogation. To the extent that proceeds of the Notes are used to
pay any outstanding lien, charge or prior encumbrance against the Mortgaged
Property, such proceeds have been or will be advanced by Mortgagee at
Mortgagor's request and Mortgagee shall be subrogated to any and all rights and
liens owned or held by any owner or holder of such
outstanding liens, charges and prior encumbrances, irrespective of whether said
liens, charges or encumbrances are released.
5.10 Waiver and Amendment. This Mortgage may be modified or amended
only by an agreement in writing signed by Mortgagor and Mortgagee. No waiver of
any term or provision hereof shall be effective unless made in writing and
signed by the party against whom it is sought to be enforced. Any failure by
Mortgagee to insist upon strict performance by Mortgagor of any of the terms and
provisions of this Mortgage shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any of such
terms or provisions and Mortgagee shall have the right thereafter to insist upon
strict performance by Mortgagor of any and all of such terms and provisions.
5.11 Revolving Credit. This Mortgage secures, in part, the obligations
of Mortgagor under and pursuant to the revolving credit facility in the maximum
principal amount of Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000) evidenced by the Credit
Note, and it is expressly agreed that the lien of this Mortgage shall continue
despite the fact that the indebtedness evidenced by the Notes may, from time to
time, be fully paid, and despite that the aggregate amount of the advances
evidenced by the Notes may exceed the initial aggregate principal balance
secured by this Mortgage, and despite certain advances may be non-obligatory,
until the obligations of Mortgagee to make further advances under the Notes are
terminated and all the indebtedness and obligations secured hereby are fully and
finally paid or performed.
