extent otherwise permissible by HUD.
5. Mortgagee will not (except as may be directed by HUD or a court)
knowingly take any action to permit any material breach by Mortgagor of
Mortgagor's obligations under the Amended and Restated Additional Loan
Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Mortgagee will
notify NYLIFE of any contemplated or impending sale of the project. NYLIFE shall
not have the right to disapprove or otherwise impede a Transfer of Physical
Assets that has been approved by the Mortgagee or HUD to protect the interests
of HUD's insurance funds.
6. Mortgagee will promptly notify NYLIFE if and when any of the following

default, Mortgagee shall provide NYLIFE the opportunity to cure any default
under the Note and Mortgage, said cure to be undertaken within such periods of
time as are permitted under the terms of the Note, Mortgage and HUD regulations.
In the event NYLIFE elects to cure the default, it shall so notify Mortgagee of
such election and diligently undertake to cure the default, it being expressly
understood and agreed that NYLIFE shall have no obligation whatsoever to cure a
default under the Note and Mortgage.
Within ten (10) days after written request from NYLIFE, the Mortgagee shall
provide NYLIFE with such other information in Mortgagee's possession relating to
the Loan and the servicing of such Loan as NYLIFE may from time to time
reasonably request, including, but not limited to:
(a) verification of fire, hazard and such other insurance as is required
by the Loan;
(b) copies of all reports relating to the physical inspection of the
property;
(c) periodic audits and reports prepared by or on behalf of the Mortgagor,
to the extent received by the Mortgagee.
Additionally, Mortgagee will provide access to its servicing records
respecting the Loan during regular business hours to NYLIFE or its agents and
permit copying at NYLIFE's expense.

requirements set forth in HUD Mortgagee Letter No. 88-14, dated July 21, 1988
("Letter 88-14") as in effect on the date hereof. This agreement shall be
interpreted at all times in compliance with Letter 88-14 and shall be deemed
amended to the extent necessary to make it consistent therewith.
8. Nothing herein is intended to alter or conflict with the terms,
conditions and provisions of the HUD regulations, handbooks, administrative
requirements and lender notices in effect at the time of initial endorsement of
the Note, or the documents required to be executed by Mortgagor in connection
with initial endorsement of the Note; and to the extent that they do so, the HUD
regulations, handbooks, administrative requirements, lender notices and
documents shall control and this document
6
shall be amended or deemed amended so as not to alter or conflict with the
aforesaid regulations, notices or documents.
The provisions of this paragraph 8 and other comparable requirements set
forth herein shall terminate and be void upon termination of HUD coinsurance of
the Loan.
9. Except as may be required by HUD or GNMA, Mortgagee shall not assign
the Loan or its servicing to an approved FHA lender without the advance written
consent of NYLIFE, which NYLIFE may grant or deny in its sole discretion.
Mortgagee shall give immediate written notice to NYLife of any events,
circumstances or causes which come to the attention of the Mortgagee which could
lead to an assignment of the Loan; including but not limited to any actual or
pending or threatened default by the Mortgagee under the Guarantee Agreement
with GNMA with respect to the Loan. If Mortgagee is required to assign the Loan
or its servicing, it shall, subject to HUD approval, assign to a Mortgagee
designated by NYLIFE. No assignment shall be permitted or effective unless the
assignee has agreed to assume and be fully bound by the terms and provisions of
the Commitment for Purchase of GNMA Securities and this Agreement.
10. All notices, demands, directions, requests, communications or the like
("Notices") required or permitted hereunder shall be given both by telephone and
in writing by overnight delivery service addressed to the other party hereto, at
the addresses as the parties may for themselves designate in writing for the
purposes of receiving Notices hereunder.
11. This Agreement shall be binding upon the successors and assigns of
each of the parties.
12. This Agreement may not be changed, terminated or modified orally or in
any manner other than an instrument in writing signed by the parties hereto.
13. This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with the laws of the
state of New York.

which shall be considered an original.
