SCHEDULE C (the "NOTE").
WHEREAS, This Mortgage is also subject to the following additional terms
and conditions:
ARTICLE
COVENANTS AND REPRESENTATIONS OF BORROWER
Borrower covenants and represents to Lender as follows:
PAYMENT AND PERFORMANCE. Borrower shall pay the Loan and all other
indebtedness secured hereby, in lawful money of the United States and pay and
perform all of its obligations under this Mortgage, the Note, the commitment
letter
3
signed and accepted by Borrower in connection with the Loan (the "COMMITMENT
LETTER") and every other instrument now or hereafter securing, evidencing or
relating to the Loan (this Mortgage, the Note, the Commitment Letter and such
other instruments being collectively referred to herein as the "LOAN
DOCUMENTS") at the times and in the manner set forth in such Loan Documents.
All amounts due the Lender under any of the aforesaid instruments shall be
secured by the lien of this Mortgage and shall hereinafter be referred to as
the "MORTGAGE DEBT". If Borrower consists of more than one party, all of the
obligations, covenants and warranties of Borrower contained in this Mortgage
shall be the joint and several obligations of all the parties constituting
Borrower.
INSURANCE.
Borrower shall keep the Property insured against loss by fire, flood
and other hazards, casualties, contingencies and all other "extended coverage"
risks, including builder's risk, rent, business interruption, liability,
indemnity, earthquake, war risk and war damage insurance, if available, in such
amounts and with such deductibles and companies as Lender may reasonably
require. Borrower shall promptly pay when due the premiums on such insurance
policies. Each insurance policy shall contain, in a form reasonably acceptable
to Lender, a provision to the effect that the policy will not be canceled
without at least ten (10) days prior written notice to Lender, the standard
non-contributing mortgagee endorsement (entitling Lender to collect all
proceeds payable under such insurance), the standard waiver of subrogation
endorsement, and any other endorsement reasonably required by Lender. All
liability insurance carried on the Property must show Lender as an additional
insured. Borrower shall deliver copies of all existing policies (or such other
evidence of insurance reasonably acceptable to Lender) to Lender at Lender's
request and shall deliver copies of all additional and renewal policies (or
such other evidence of renewal reasonably acceptable to Lender), with current
premium bills therefor marked "Paid", to Lender at least thirty (30) days
before the expiration of the old policies.
After the happening of any casualty to the Property, Borrower shall
give prompt written notice thereof to Lender, all proceeds of insurance
maintained with respect to the Property (the "INSURANCE PROCEEDS") shall be
payable to Lender, and Lender is hereby authorized and empowered by Borrower to
make proof of loss on, and to collect, settle, adjust or compromise, any claims
for loss, damage or destruction under any policy or policies of insurance.
Provided, however, that so long as no Event of Default has then occurred, (a)
if such loss is for less than $250,000, Lender shall deliver such proceeds to
Borrower to repair and restore the Property, and (b) Lender will consult with
Borrower in connection with the settlement, adjustment or compromise of any
such claim, but such right of consultation shall not affect or diminish the
rights of Lender to make all determinations and decisions in respect of the
settlement, adjustment or compromise of any such claim. Borrower does hereby
indemnify Lender and hold Lender harmless against and from any and all claims
and liabilities asserted against Lender in connection with the collection,
adjustment or
4
compromise of any insured loss. Each insurer is authorized and directed hereby
to make payment under such insurance policies, including return of unearned
premiums, directly to Lender instead of to Borrower and Lender jointly, and
Borrower appoints Lender, irrevocably, as Borrower's attorney-in-fact to
endorse any draft therefor. All such Insurance Proceeds received by Lender
shall be held by Lender and applied and disbursed in its sole discretion,
either to the principal balance of the Loan or to the repair and restoration of
the Property.
TAXES.
Borrower shall pay, before the same become delinquent, all taxes,
assessments, and governmental charges and impositions of any kind whatsoever
for which lien rights exist, which may now or hereafter be assessed or levied
upon any part of the Property, or in lieu of or in addition to a tax on the
Property (all such charges and payments collectively referred to herein as the
"TAXES"). If Borrower fails to pay any such Taxes as aforesaid, Lender may pay
same and the amount of such payments shall constitute Lender Advances pursuant
to SECTION hereof. Borrower shall deliver to Lender, at its request, receipts
for the payment of each item specified above, prior to the date the item will
become delinquent. Borrower shall promptly notify Lender of the delinquency in
the payment of any Taxes due. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower may
contest in good faith, by appropriate proceedings, the payment of Taxes for
which Borrower has either paid such Taxes (or portion thereof) as may be
required as a condition to instituting such a proceeding, or established on its
books or by deposit of cash with Lender, at the option of Lender, a reserve for
the payment thereof in such amount as Lender may require, so long as such
contest: operates to prevent collection, stay any proceedings which may be
instituted to enforce payment of such item, and prevent a sale of the Property
to pay such item; is maintained and prosecuted with due diligence; and shall
not have been terminated or discontinued adversely to Borrower.
Upon the request of Lender, Borrower shall pay to Lender, together
with and in addition to the monthly installments of principal and interest
provided in the Loan Agreement, an amount (as estimated from time to time by
Lender in its sole discretion) equal to one-twelfth (1/12th) of the yearly
Taxes assessed against the Property and sufficient funds to pay the insurance
premiums required under SECTION when due. Borrower agrees that any funds
deposited with or paid to Lender pursuant to this SUBSECTION B. shall create
only an indebtedness, and not a trust or agency relationship, between Borrower
and Lender, which shall be liquidated to the extent of Lender's payments as
aforesaid. Unless otherwise required by law, no interest shall be payable on
such funds. If the tax escrow payments are not sufficient to pay the Taxes on
the date they become due and payable, Borrower shall pay to Lender the amount
necessary to make up the deficiency on or before said date. Upon, and any time
after, the occurrence of an Event of Default, Lender may, at its option, apply
the accumulated escrow balance remaining as a credit against the Mortgage Debt.
5
CONDEMNATION. Borrower shall give Lender immediate notice of the
actual or (if known to Borrower) threatened commencement of any eminent domain
proceedings affecting any part of the Property, and shall deliver to Lender
copies of all papers served in connection therewith. Borrower hereby appoints
Lender as its attorney-in-fact, coupled with an interest, and authorizes Lender
to collect, receive, and retain, the proceeds of any such award or payment, to
give proper receipts therefor and, if an Event of Default has occurred, to
adjust, compromise and settle the claim therefor. Lender shall have the right
to intervene and participate in any eminent domain proceedings, and Borrower
shall consult with Lender in all matters pertaining to the adjustment,
compromise or settlement of such proceedings and shall not enter into any
agreement with respect to such matters without the prior written consent of
Lender, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. Borrower agrees to execute
and deliver upon request any other instruments deemed necessary by Lender to
confirm or assign to Lender all awards and other compensation to be made for
any taking of the Property. Lender may, in its sole discretion, retain and
apply any eminent domain award or payment toward payment of the Mortgage Debt
or pay same over wholly or in part to Borrower. If a part of the Property
shall have been taken in any eminent domain proceedings and the remaining part
of the Property shall have been sold in foreclosure of this Mortgage prior to
the receipt by Lender of the award or payment, Lender, to the extent permitted
by applicable law, shall have the right to receive the award or payment to the
extent of any deficiency found to be due upon such sale, with legal interest
thereon, and including reasonable counsel fees, costs and disbursements
incurred by Lender in connection with the collection of such award or payment.
COMPLIANCE WITH LAW, ETC.
Borrower presently does, and shall continue to, observe and comply
with all laws, regulations, zoning and subdivision ordinances, building codes,
rules, and orders affecting the Property or the business operations thereon;
the terms of each insurance policy applicable to the Property; and all
conditions and requirements necessary to preserve and maintain all rights,
licenses, permits, privileges, franchises and concessions which are applicable
to the Property or business activities conducted at or from the Property, or
which have been granted to or contracted for by Borrower or by any tenant under
the Leases. Upon receipt, Borrower shall promptly furnish to Lender copies of
all notices, orders, summonses, correspondence and other similar items
delivered to or served upon Borrower pertaining to any of the foregoing.
Upon receipt, Borrower shall promptly furnish to Lender, or its
designee, copies of all correspondence from the Connecticut Department of
Environmental Protection (the "DEP"), the Federal Environmental Protection
Agency (the "EPA"), the Occupational Safety and Health Administration, or any
similar entity (individually, a "REGULATORY AUTHORITY") to Borrower (other than
routine mass informational mailings) and, upon request, shall direct such
entity to send copies of all such correspondence directly to Lender. Borrower
shall furnish to Lender copies of all
6
correspondence, permit applications, and property transfer related forms and
reports from Borrower to any Regulatory Authority, copies of all periodic
reports required by any environmental law or any permit, and copies of all
records, forms and documents which Borrower is required to produce or maintain
pursuant to any environmental law or any permit. If, as a result of a Spill
(as defined below) or a release of hazardous waste, Borrower may be legally
obligated to report to or notify any Regulatory Authority, Borrower shall
promptly notify Lender in writing that such obligation has been triggered.
Failure to comply with this requirement shall constitute an Event of Default
hereunder.
Lender may, at any time and from time to time, cause to be conducted
and completed by engineers, consultants and others selected by Lender, such
investigations, studies, sampling and testing of the condition of the Property
and the compliance by Borrower and all occupants of the Property with
applicable environmental laws as Lender, in its sole discretion, shall deem
reasonably appropriate. All such investigations, studies, sampling and testing
shall be at Borrower's expense, provided, however, that Borrower shall not be
required to bear such expense so long as there is no Event of Default
hereunder, and Lender has no cause to believe, in its reasonable judgment,
that there has been a Spill (as defined below) or threatened Spill at the
Property or that Borrower is in violation of any environmental law. Borrower
agrees to cooperate with Lender and all persons retained by Lender to conduct
such investigations and to provide them with access to the Property and the
books and records of Borrower.
Borrower shall indemnify Lender and hold Lender harmless from and
against all loss, liability, damage and expense, including attorneys' fees and
diminution in property value, suffered or incurred by Lender, whether as holder
of this Mortgage, as mortgagee in possession or as a successor in interest to
Borrower as owner of the Property by virtue of foreclosure or acceptance of a
deed in lieu of foreclosure under or on account of any remedial or other
environmental or health and safety related obligation imposed by laws such as
Chapter 446K of the Connecticut General Statutes Revision of 1958, as amended
(the "ACT") or related regulations, or any similar applicable federal laws or
regulations, including the assertion of any lien thereunder; with respect to
any release, discharge, spillage, uncontrolled loss, seepage or filtration of
oil or petroleum or chemical liquids or solid, liquid or gaseous products or
hazardous waste which, if contained or removed or mitigated by the State of
Connecticut, could give rise to a lien under Connecticut General Laws Section
22a-452a, as amended (a "SPILL") affecting the Property (whether or not the
same originates or emanates from the Property or any contiguous real estate)
including any loss of value of the Property as a result of such Spill; and with
respect to any other matter affecting the Property and governed by the
provisions of the Act, other environmental or health and safety laws, their
related regulations, or any similar applicable federal laws or regulations.
7
In the event of any Spill or release affecting the Property, whether
or not the same originates or emanates from the Property or any contiguous real
estate, Borrower shall contain, remove or mitigate same in accordance with
applicable laws and regulations and any directives of the State of Connecticut.
If Borrower shall fail to remedy such Spill or otherwise comply with any of the
requirements of the Act or related regulations or any other environmental law
or regulation, Lender may at its election, but without the obligation to do so,
give such notices and/or cause such work to be performed at the Property and/or
take any and all other actions as Lender shall deem necessary or advisable in
order to remedy the Spill or cure such failure of compliance in order to
protect its security in interest in the Property, and any amounts paid as a
result thereof shall be reimbursed by Borrower upon demand by Lender, shall
bear interest at the "Default Rate" provided for in the Note, and shall be
secured by the lien of this Mortgage. Borrower shall provide Lender, its
agents and contractors access to the Property for such remedial work to occur.
Borrower hereby indemnifies and holds Lender harmless from all loss, expense
and liability arising out of such remedial activity.
MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR; INSPECTION
Borrower shall keep and maintain the Property in good condition,
working order and repair; not permit, commit or suffer any waste of the
Property; (i) not permit the Property or any part thereof to become vacant,
deserted or unguarded; (ii) repair, replace, rebuild or restore any part of the
Property which may be damaged or destroyed by any casualty or affected by
eminent domain, whether or not the proceeds of any insurance or eminent domain
proceedings are available therefor, provided, however, if Lender receives
Borrower's proceeds of insurance from any such loss or casualty, Borrower's
duty to repair and restore the Property will be contingent upon Lender's
turning over such proceeds to Borrower; (iii) complete and pay for when due any
construction undertaken on the Property; and (iv) make all other repairs and
replacements to the Property which Lender may reasonably require. All such
work shall be done promptly in good and workmanlike manner.
Lender and any person authorized by Lender shall have the right to
enter and inspect the Property at all reasonable times.
SALE, ENCUMBRANCE AND USE.
Borrower shall not, without Lender's prior written consent, which may
be withheld in Lender's sole discretion for any reason whatsoever, initiate or
allow any Transfer (as defined in subsection C. below) of title to all or any
part of the Property; voluntarily create or grant any liens, mortgages or
encumbrances against such title; initiate or allow any change in the nature of
the use and occupancy of the Property, including any such change which
materially increases the possibility of a Spill; or record any Declaration of
Common Interest Community.
8
Borrower shall keep and maintain the Property free from the claim of
all persons supplying labor or materials in connection with the construction or
repair of any Improvements constituting a part of the Property. Borrower shall
furnish, at Lender's request, all waivers and releases of liens or claims upon
or with respect to the Property or any Service Equipment.
The term "Transfer" as used in this SECTION shall mean:
any sale, conveyance, transfer, gift or other disposition of
the Property or any interest therein, whether voluntary, involuntary, or by
operation of law, or Borrower's entry into any contract or option agreement to
accomplish same;
if Borrower is a corporation any change in the articles of
incorporation of the corporation.
any dissolution or liquidation of, or the filing of a suit to
dissolve or liquidate, a corporate or partnership Borrower;
a lease or leases of the Land, Improvements or Service
Equipment, wherein the proposed tenant or tenants do not intend to occupy the
Property but intend to sell, sublease or assign their interest to effectuate a
long-term lease or sale and leaseback for financing purposes;
any other act by which the economic benefit, entrepreneurial
risk or management responsibility with respect to the Property is shifted to
someone other than Borrower.
Borrower shall promptly notify Lender if any lien, attachment or
encumbrance is recorded against the Property without Borrower's consent and
will cause the lien to be canceled and discharged of record within thirty (30)
days after its recording.
Any attempted action contrary to the provisions of this SECTION
shall be void, but shall constitute an Event of Default hereunder. Borrower
agrees that if the ownership of the Property or any part thereof becomes vested
in a person or entity other than Borrower, Lender may, upon notice to Borrower,
deal in any way with such successor or successors in interest without in any
way impairing or discharging Borrower's liability hereunder, under the Note or
the Mortgage Debt.
LEASES. Borrower shall not take any action, the effect of which would
be to cause any Lease to cease to be in full force and effect, and will not,
except with the prior written consent of Lender, cancel or terminate any
Lease, or consent to any cancellation, termination or surrender thereof, or any
assignment thereof; amend, modify or subordinate any Lease; enter into any
new Lease; waive any default under or breach of any Lease; or consent to any
prepayment or discount of rent or advance
9
rent under any Lease. Lender shall have the right to review and reasonably
refuse written consent to any of the above proposed actions of Borrower based
upon the substance of the proposed transaction, the creditworthiness of
Borrower or the tenant, and the financial condition of the Property.
PROPERTY INCOME. Borrower hereby assigns, transfers and grants a
security interest to Lender in and to the Property Income to secure the
Mortgage Debt. Borrower shall not otherwise assign, transfer or encumber the
Property Income in any manner. Borrower may, so long as no Event of Default
has occurred hereunder, collect and use the Property Income, as the same
becomes due and payable, but may not collect same more than thirty (30) days in
advance of the date the same becomes due. Upon the occurrence of an Event of
Default, the permission hereby given to Borrower to collect the Property Income
shall terminate. The foregoing provisions hereof shall constitute an absolute
and present assignment of the Property Income, subject, however, to the
conditional permission given to Borrower to collect and use such Property
Income as hereinabove provided. The existence or exercise of such right of
Borrower shall not operate to subordinate this assignment to any subsequent
assignment, in whole or in part, and any such subsequent assignment by Borrower
shall be subject to the rights of Lender hereunder.
REMOVALS, ALTERATIONS AND DEMOLITION. Improvement or Service
Equipment shall be removed, altered, demolished or erected without the prior
written consent of Lender. All such changes, additions and alterations shall
become part of the Property immediately upon installation. Any replacement
equipment shall constitute Service Equipment and be subject to the lien of this
Mortgage.
PROTECTION OF LIEN AND OTHER EXPENSES. Borrower shall pay,
indemnify, defend and hold Lender harmless from: all costs, disbursements,
expenses and reasonable counsel fees incurred by Lender in connection with
protecting or sustaining the lien of this Mortgage; any proceeding, action,
suit, hearing, motion or application in which Lender is a party by reason
hereof or in which, in Lender's opinion, it becomes necessary to defend and
uphold the terms or priority of this Mortgage; the preparation for enforcement
of the Loan Documents after the occurrence of an Event of Default and
negotiations with Borrower in connection with the existence or cure of such an
Event of Default; any proposed refinancing by Lender of the Mortgage Debt; the
transfer of the Property in lieu of foreclosure; the approval by Lender of
actions taken or proposed to be taken by Borrower or others, which approval is
required by the terms of this Mortgage or other Loan Documents; and all
damages, reasonable costs and expenses (including, without limitation,
attorney's fees) paid by or imposed upon Lender in connection with any bodily
injury, death or property damage occurring in or upon, or in the vicinity of,
the Property through any cause whatsoever or asserted against Lender on account
of any act performed or omitted to be performed hereunder (other than such acts
or omissions constituting the gross negligence of Lender) or on account of any
transaction arising out of or in any way connected with the Property, this
Mortgage or the Mortgage Debt.
10
ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATES; INSTRUMENTS OF FURTHER ASSURANCE. Borrower
shall deliver to Lender within ten (10) days after any request a duly
acknowledged certificate setting forth the amount of principal and interest due
and payable on the Loan and whether any offsets or defenses exist with respect
to this Mortgage or the Mortgage Debt. Upon Lender's request, Borrower shall
use its best efforts and due diligence to obtain delivery of the duly
acknowledged certificate of any person having or acquiring an interest in or
encumbrance on all or any part of the Property setting forth the nature and
extent of the interest and stating that the interest is subordinate to this
Mortgage and whether any offsets or defenses exist with respect to this
Mortgage or the Mortgage Debt.
BOOKS, RECORDS AND ACCOUNTS. Borrower shall keep and maintain proper
and accurate books, records and accounts reflecting all items of income and
expense received or paid by Borrower or any other person in connection with the
Property and all business operations conducted at or from the Property. Lender
shall have the right at any time during normal business hours to examine and
copy any such books, records and accounts wherever located.
FINANCING STATEMENT AND SECURITY AGREEMENT.
This Mortgage constitutes a security agreement and is intended
to be effective as a financing statement pursuant to the Connecticut Uniform
Commercial Code. Borrower hereby grants to Lender a security interest in the
Service Equipment, Leases, Property Income and other personal property included
in the Property, and all replacements thereof, substitutions therefor,
additions thereto and proceeds thereof, as well as the personal property
described on SCHEDULE D attached hereto and made a part hereof (collectively,

statement and the mailing addresses of the secured party and the debtor for the
purpose of this financing statement are set forth in SECTION hereof. Upon

financing or continuation statement or other document Lender deems necessary to
protect or perfect its lien on the Service Equipment, and pay all filing fees
and other costs, disbursements, expenses and reasonable counsel fees incurred
by Lender in connection therewith. Borrower authorizes Lender, to the extent
permitted by applicable law, to sign and file any financing or continuation
statement at any time with respect to the Service Equipment in the absence of
any signature by or on behalf of Borrower.
Borrower hereby warrants, represents and covenants as follows:
except for the security interest granted hereby, and as permitted under a
certain Fifth Amended and Restated Loan Agreement dated February 20, 1995 by
and between Lender and Borrower, as amended and in effect from time to time,
Borrower is, and as to the portions of the Personal Property to be acquired
after the date hereof will be, the sole owner of the Personal Property free
from any lien, security interest, encumbrance
11
or claim thereon of any kind whatsoever. Borrower will notify Lender of, and
will defend the Personal Property against, all claims and demands of all
persons at any time claiming the Personal Property or any interest therein;
Borrower will not assign, pledge, encumber, lease, sell, convey or in any
manner transfer the Personal Property or portions thereof without the prior
written consent of Lender, except as otherwise permitted under the Loan
Documents, and all of the Personal Property attached to, incorporated into or
to be incorporated into the Property will be kept free and clear of all chattel
mortgages, liens, conditional vendor's liens, encumbrances and security
interests, except as expressly waived in writing by Lender; the Personal
Property is not and will not be used or acquired for personal, family or
household purposes; the Personal Property will be kept on or at the Property,
and Borrower will not remove any portion or item of Personal Property affixed
or attached to the Property without the prior written consent of Lender, except
such portions or items of Personal Property which are consumed or worn out in
ordinary usage, and are promptly replaced by Borrower with new items of equal
or greater quality; and notwithstanding any release of any or all of the
Property which is deemed "real property", any proceedings to foreclose this
Mortgage or the release of this Mortgage of record, the terms hereof shall
survive as a security agreement with respect to the security interest created
hereby until the repayment or satisfaction in full of the Mortgage Debt.

GENERAL REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. Borrower represents and
warrants that as of the date of this Mortgage:
Borrower is generally paying its debts as such debts become
due, the fair market value of its assets exceeds its liabilities and no
bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings are pending or contemplated by or against
Borrower.
All reports, statements and other data furnished by Borrower
to Lender in connection with the Loan are true, correct and complete in all
material respects and do not omit any fact or circumstance which would make the
statements contained therein misleading; present fairly the financial position
of Borrower as of the date stated therein, and the results of Borrower's
operation and changes in financial position for the years then ended and the
statements are prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles applied on a consistent basis; and that no material adverse change
has occurred in the financial condition of Borrower or the Property since the
date of said financial statement.
The Property and all Improvements thereon have not suffered any
damage from fire or other casualty, no part of the Property has been condemned
or taken by eminent domain and no condemnation or other taking of the Property
or any part thereof is threatened or pending, or has been threatened with, any
other title proceedings.
To Borrower's best knowledge, there does not now exist on,
under or within the Property (or any contiguous land included in the legal
description of the Property within three years prior to the date hereof) any
Spill. To Borrower's best knowledge, there does not now exist any condition,
nor will the current or proposed operations cause there to exist any condition
upon the Property or said contiguous land which would materially increase the
possibility of the occurrence of a Spill, or a material violation of the Act
or any related regulations or any similar federal laws or regulations.
Borrower if a corporation, is a valid corporation in good

Borrower has the legal capacity and is authorized to execute
and deliver all Loan Documents; the Loan Documents are valid and binding
obligations enforceable in accordance with their respective terms, and the
execution and delivery thereof do not contravene any contract or agreement to
which Borrower is a party or by
13
which Borrower or any of its respective properties may be bound, and do not
contravene any law, order, decree, rule or regulation to which Borrower is
subject.
Except as previously disclosed in writing to Lender, there is no
action, suit or proceeding pending, or, to the knowledge of Borrower, threatened
against or materially affecting Borrower or the Property or the business
operations conducted at or from the Property or which involve the possibility of
any judgment or liability not fully covered by insurance or which, in Borrower's
opinion, might result in any adverse change in the business, assets or
operations of Borrower which would, in any way, materially and adversely affect
the Property or the validity or enforceability of the Loan Documents. Borrower

Lender to exercise any of its rights hereunder or under any of the Loan

default hereunder shall not constitute a waiver of any subsequent or different

conveyance from Borrower or as a result of the foreclosure of any other mortgage
