The Term Loan and the obligations and liabilities incurred by Borrower to the Bank in connection therewith are secured by, among other things, a certain Mortgage, Security Agreement and Assignment dated June 28, 2007 (as amended, modified or supplemented, the “Mortgage”), pursuant to which, among other things, the Borrower has granted the Bank a first priority lien and security interest in and to the Mortgaged Premises.
B.

C. On or about July 2, 2008, the Guarantor executed and delivered to the Bank an instrument of Guaranty (as amended, modified or supplemented, the “Guaranty”) pursuant to which, among other things, the Guarantor guaranteed the payment and performance of all of the Borrower’s Liabilities (as that term is defined in the Guaranty) to the Bank.
D. On or about May 4, 2009, the Obligors and the Bank entered into a certain Modification Agreement (the “Modification Agreement”) pursuant to which, among other things and subject to certain terms and conditions, (i) the Bank waived certain defaults and agreed to forbear from exercising its rights and remedies on account of such defaults, and (ii) the Bank and the Borrower agreed to various amendments and modifications to the Loan Documents (as defined below) as set forth in the Modification Agreement.
