Nonpayment of any taxes or assessments levied or assessed upon the property, or nonpayment of any insurance premium upon any insurance policy relating to the Property, or any part thereof, shall constitute waste, and shall entitle Lender to exercise the remedies afforded by Section 600.2927 of the Michigan Revised Judicature Act of 1961, as now or hereafter amended, and by any other statute or law now or hereafter in effect, including the appointment of a receiver, to which appointment Borrower consents.

In its performance of this Obligation, the Borrower shall promptly and in a good and workmanlike manner repair or restore, as required under Subsection 6.17, any elements of the Improvements that are damaged or destroyed. The Borrower shall also replace roofs, parking lots, mechanical systems, and other elements of the Improvements requiring periodic replacement. The Borrower shall carry out such replacements no less frequently than would a commercially reasonable owner intending to maintain the maximum income-generating potential of the Real Property over its reasonable economic life. The Borrower shall not, without the prior written consent of the Lender, demolish, reconfigure, or materially alter the structural elements of the Improvements, unless such an action is the obligation of the Borrower under a Lease approved by Lender or for which the Lender's approval is not required under the Absolute Assignment of Leases and Rents. The Lender agrees that any request for its consent to such an action shall be deemed given if the Lender does not respond within fifteen (15) Business Days to any written request for such a consent, if the request is accompanied by all materials required to permit the Lender to analyze the proposed action. Any provision in this or any other Section of this Mortgage or any of the other Loan Documents to the contrary notwithstanding, the Borrower’s compliance with the terms and conditions of any written asset management plan approved by the Lender in writing shall constitute the Borrower’s compliance with its obligations under the Loan Documents to maintain, repair and furnish any apartment units in the Improvements that are or become vacant.

6.8

USE OF THE REAL PROPERTY

The Borrower agrees that the Real Property may only be used as a residential apartment complex and for no other purpose.

6.12

INDEPENDENCE OF THE REAL PROPERTY

The Borrower shall maintain the independence of the Real Property from other land and improvements not included within or located on the Land. In fulfilling this covenant, the Borrower shall neither take any action which would make it necessary to own or control any property other than the Real Property in order to meet the obligations of the landlord under any Lease, or in order to comply with the Legal Requirements, nor take any action which would cause any land or improvements other than the Land and the Improvements to rely upon the Land or the Improvements for those purposes.

6.13

COMPLETE LOTS AND TAX PARCELS

The Borrower shall take no action that would result in the inclusion of any portion of the Land in a tax parcel or subdivision lot that is not entirely included within the Land.

6.14

COMMERCIAL PROPERTY

The Real Property shall be used for commercial purposes as a multifamily residential apartment complex and not by the Borrower for residential, personal, family or household purposes.

6.15

PERFORMANCE UNDER DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENTS

The Borrower shall fully, timely and completely perform all of the obligations of the owner of the Real Property due under the Development Agreements and shall cause no default under any of the Development Agreements.

6.16

STATUS OF CERTAIN TITLE MATTERS

The Borrower shall not take or fail to take any action with respect to the Easements included within the Appurtenances or the reciprocal easement agreements, operating agreements, declarations, and restrictive covenants included in the Permitted Encumbrances if, as the result of such an action or failure, the subject Easement or other title matter would (a) be rendered invalid or without force or effect, (b) be amended or supplemented without the consent of the Lender, (c) be placed in default or alleged default, (d) result in any lien against the Real Property, or (e) give rise to any assessment against the Real Property, unless immediately paid in full.

6.17

RESTORATION UPON CASUALTY OR CONDEMNATION

If a casualty or condemnation occurs, the Borrower shall promptly commence and diligently complete the Restoration of the Real Property, provided the related Insurance Proceeds or Condemnation Proceeds held by the Lender are available for Restoration under the terms of Sections 8.3 and 8.4.

6.18

PERFORMANCE OF LANDLORD OBLIGATIONS; MANAGEMENT STANDARD

The Borrower shall perform its obligations as landlord under the Leases, shall cause the Real Property to be professionally leased and managed in a manner that is consistent with good commercial practices for institutional owners of multifamily apartment projects (the “Management Standard”) and shall neither take any action, nor fail to take any action, if the action or failure would be inconsistent with the commercially reasonable management of the Real Property for the purpose of enhancing its long-term performance and value. The Borrower shall not, without the Lender’s written consent, extend, modify, declare a default under, terminate, or enter into any Lease of the Real Property, except as otherwise permitted under the Loan Documents.

6.19

FINANCIAL REPORTS AND OPERATING STATEMENTS

(a)

Maintenance of Books and Records

During the term of the Loan, the Borrower shall maintain complete and accurate accounting and operational records, including copies of all Leases and other material written contracts relating to the Real Property, copies of all tax statements, and evidence to support the payment of all material property-related expenses.

(b)

Delivery of Financial and Property-Related Information

Within one hundred twenty (120) days after the end of each of its fiscal years, or, if a Default exists, on demand by the Lender, the Borrower shall deliver to the Lender (A) copies of the financial statements of the Borrower, and to the extent the same are prepared and available for its general partner, such general partner, including balance sheets and earnings statements, (B) a complete and accurate operating statement for the Real Property, and (C) a complete rent roll, all in form satisfactory to the Lender. The rent roll must be certified by the Borrower to be true and correct and must include each tenant’s name, unit type and address, rent, lease expiration date, renewal options and related rental rates, delinquencies and vacancies. If the Borrower fails to deliver the items required in this Subsection, the Lender may engage an accounting firm to prepare the required items. The Borrower shall cooperate fully with any investigative audit required to permit the accounting firm to produce these items, and the fees and expenses incurred in connection with their preparation shall be paid on demand by the Borrower.

(c)

Effect of Failure to Deliver Financial and Property Reports

If no Default exists and the Borrower fails to provide the financial and property reports required under this Section within one hundred twenty (120) days of the close of any fiscal year, the Lender will provide a Notice of this failure and a thirty (30)-day opportunity to cure before a Default shall exist. All monthly payments of principal and interest under the Note that become due after this cure period has elapsed but before the reports are received by the Lender must be accompanied by a fee of .000834 times the principal balance of the Loan at the beginning of the previous month, regardless of whether the Notice has asserted that the failure constitutes a Default under this Mortgage. This fee is to compensate the Lender for (A) the increased risk resulting from the Lender’s inability to monitor and service the Loan using up-to-date information and (B) the reduced value and liquidity of the Loan as a financial asset.

(d)

Certification of Information

The financial and operating statements provided under this Subsection need not, as an initial matter, be certified by an independent certified public accountant as having been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, consistently applied, or, in the case of financial statements prepared on a cash or income tax basis, or of operating statements, as not materially misleading based on an audit conducted in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. The Borrower shall, however certify that such statements are true and correct, and the Lender expressly reserves the right to require such a certification by an independent certified public accountant if a Default exists or if the Lender in the exercise of its reasonable discretion has reason to believe that any previously provided financial or operating statement is misleading in any material respect.

6.20

ESTOPPEL STATEMENTS

Upon request by the Lender, the Borrower shall, within ten (10) Business Days of Notice of the request, furnish to the Lender or to whom it may direct, a written statement acknowledging the amount of the Indebtedness and disclosing whether, to the best of the Borrower’s knowledge, any offsets or defenses exist against the Indebtedness. Thereafter, the Borrower shall be estopped from asserting any other offsets or defenses alleged to have arisen as of the date of the statement.

6.21

PROHIBITION ON CERTAIN DISTRIBUTIONS

If a Default exists under Subsection 10.1 or under any of Subparagraphs (b), (c), (d), (e) or (f) of Subsection 10.2, the Borrower shall not pay any dividend or make any partnership, trust or other distribution, and shall not make any payment or transfer any property in order to purchase, redeem or retire any interest in its beneficial interests or ownership.

6.22

USE OF LOAN PROCEEDS

The Loan proceeds shall be used solely for commercial purposes.

6.23

PROHIBITION ON CUTOFF NOTICES

6.24

Borrower further covenants and agrees to deliver (from time to time) to Lender any such certification or other evidence as may be requested by Lender in its sole and absolute discretion, confirming that (i) neither Borrower nor any Obligor is a Prohibited Person and (ii) neither Borrower nor any Obligor has engaged in any business, transaction or dealings with a Prohibited Person, including, but not limited to, the making or receiving of any contribution of funds, goods, or services, to or for the benefit of a Prohibited Person.

7.3

HOW THE LENDER SHALL BE NAMED

On all property insurance policies and coverages required under this Section (including coverage against loss of business income), the Lender must be named as “first mortgagee” under a standard mortgagee clause.

All policies must require the insurance carrier to give the Lender a minimum of ten (10) days’ notice in the event of modification, cancellation or termination for nonpayment of premium and a minimum of thirty (30) days’ notice of nonrenewal. The Borrower shall report to the Lender immediately any material facts known to the Borrower that may adversely affect the appropriateness or enforceability of any insurance contract, including, without limitation, changes in the ownership or occupancy of the Real Property, any hazard to the Real Property and any matters that may give rise to any claim. Prior to expiration of any policy required under this Section, the Borrower shall provide either (a) an original or certified copy of the renewed policy, or (b) a “binder,” an Xxxxx 28 (real property), Xxxxx 27 (personal property) or Xxxxx 25 (liability) certificate, or another document satisfactory to the Lender conferring on the Lender the rights and privileges of mortgagee.

INSURANCE AND CONDEMNATION PROCEEDS

8.1

ADJUSTMENT AND COMPROMISE OF CLAIMS AND AWARDS

The Borrower may settle any insurance claim or condemnation proceeding if the effect of the casualty or the condemnation may be remedied for $50,000 or less. If a greater sum is required, the Borrower may not settle any such claim or proceeding without the advance written consent of the Lender. If a Default exists, the Borrower may not settle any insurance claim or condemnation proceeding without the advance written consent of the Lender.

8.2

DIRECT PAYMENT TO THE LENDER OF PROCEEDS

If the Insurance Proceeds received in connection with a casualty or the Condemnation Proceeds received in respect of a condemnation exceed $50,000, or if there is a Default, then such proceeds shall be paid directly to the Lender. The Lender shall have the right to endorse instruments which evidence proceeds that it is entitled to receive directly.

8.3

AVAILABILITY TO THE BORROWER OF PROCEEDS

The Borrower shall have the right to use the Insurance Proceeds or the Condemnation Proceeds to carry out the Restoration of the Real Property, if the amount received is less than $250,000, subject to the conditions set forth in Subsections 8.4, 8.5, and 8.6 of this Section.

If the amount received in respect of a casualty or condemnation equals or exceeds $250,000, and if the Loan-to-Value ratio of the Property on completion will be sixty-five percent (65%) or less, as determined by the Lender in its discretion based on its estimate of the market value of the Real Property, the Lender shall receive such Insurance Proceeds or Condemnation Proceeds directly and hold them in a fund for Restoration subject to the conditions set forth in Subsections 8.4, 8.5, and 8.6 of this Section. If the Lender’s estimate of the market value of the Real Property implies a Loan-to-Value ratio of over 65%, and the Borrower disagrees with the Lender’s estimate, the Borrower may require that the Lender engage an independent appraiser (the “Fee Appraiser”) to prepare and submit to AEGON a full narrative appraisal report estimating the market value of the Real Property. The Fee Appraiser shall be certified in Michigan and shall be a member of a national appraisal organization that has adopted the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP) established by the Appraisal Standards Board of the Appraisal Foundation. The Fee Appraiser will be required to use assumptions and limiting conditions established by the Lender and to prepare the appraisal in conformity with the Lender’s Appraisal Guidelines. For purposes of this Section, the independent appraiser’s value conclusion shall be binding on both the Lender and the Borrower. The Borrower shall have the right to make a prepayment of the Loan, without premium, sufficient to achieve this Loan-to-Value ratio. The independent fee appraisal shall be at the Borrower’s expense in connection with its review. The Lender may require that the Borrower deposit $10,000 with the Lender as security for these expenses or may pay the fee appraiser’s fee from the proceeds at its sole discretion.

Unless the Borrower has the right to use the Insurance Proceeds or the Condemnation Proceeds under the foregoing paragraphs, the Lender may, in its sole and absolute discretion, either apply them to the Loan balance or disburse them for the purposes of repair and reconstruction, or to remedy the effects of the condemnation. No prepayment premium will be charged on Insurance Proceeds or Condemnation Proceeds applied to reduce the principal balance of the Loan.

8.4

CONDITIONS TO AVAILABILITY OF PROCEEDS

The Lender shall have no obligation to release Insurance Proceeds or Condemnation Proceeds to the Borrower, and may hold such amounts as additional security for the Loan, if (a) a Default exists, (b) the Lender has delivered to the Borrower Notice of any act, omission or circumstance that will, if uncured, become a Default, and the required cure has not been effected or (c) if the Insurance Proceeds or Condemnation Proceeds received by the Lender and any other funds deposited by the Borrower with the Lender are insufficient, as determined by the Lender in its reasonable discretion, to complete the Restoration. If a Default exists, the Lender may at its sole and absolute discretion apply such Insurance Proceeds and Condemnation Proceeds to the full or partial cure of the Default.

8.5

GROSS UP OF RESTORATION FUND; PERMITTED MEZZANINE FINANCING

If the Lender reasonably determines that the Insurance Proceeds or Condemnation Proceeds received in respect of a casualty or a condemnation, as the case may be, would be insufficient to permit the Borrower to effect the Restoration, then the Borrower shall use reasonable efforts to secure such additional funds as the Lender determines are necessary to effect the Restoration. The Lender agrees to permit the Borrower to secure mezzanine financing in order to meet its obligation under this Subsection. The mezzanine loan may be secured by a pledge of interests in the Borrower, subject to an inter-creditor agreement on market terms for securitized loans.

8.6

DRAW REQUIREMENTS

The Borrower’s right to receive Insurance Proceeds and Condemnation Proceeds held by the Lender under this Section shall be conditioned on the Lender’s reasonable approval of plans and specifications for the Restoration. Each draw shall be in the minimum amount of $50,000. Draw requests shall be accompanied by customary evidence of construction completion, and by endorsements to the Lender’s mortgagee title insurance coverage insuring the absence of construction, mechanics’ or materialmen’s liens. Draws based on partial completion of the Restoration shall be subject to a ten percent (10%) holdback. All transactional expenses shall be paid by the Borrower.

ESCROW FUND

The Borrower shall pay the Monthly Escrow Payment on the first (1st) day of every month, commencing with the month in which the first regular payment of principal and interest is due. The Lender shall hold Monthly Escrow Payments in a non-interest-bearing fund from which the Lender will pay on a timely basis those Escrow Expenses that the Lender has anticipated will become payable on a regular basis during the Loan’s term, and on which the Lender has based its determination of the Monthly Imposition Requirement, the Monthly Insurance Premium Requirement and the Monthly Reserve Requirement. The Escrow Fund will be maintained as an accounting entry in the Lender’s general account, where it may be commingled with the Lender’s other funds. The Lender may reanalyze the projected Escrow Expenses from time to time and shall advise the Borrower of any change in the amount of the Monthly Escrow Payment. Upon the foreclosure of this Mortgage, the delivery of a deed in lieu of foreclosure, or the payoff of the Loan, the Lender shall apply amounts in the Escrow Fund, net of accrued Escrow Expenses, to the Indebtedness. The Lender shall remit any amounts in excess of the Indebtedness to the Borrower.

PERMITTED TRANSFER TO A JOINT VENTURE

(b)

Request and Supporting Materials

The Lender shall receive a written request for its approval at least thirty (30) days before the proposed transfer. The request shall specify the identity of the proposed transferee and the material economic terms of the transaction, and shall be accompanied by the financial statements, tax returns, and organizational documents of the proposed transferee and its principals.

NOTICE OF ABSOLUTE ASSIGNMENT OF LEASES AND RENTS

Under the Absolute Assignment of Leases and Rents, the Borrower has assigned to the Lender, and to its successors and assigns, all of the Borrower’s right and title to, and interest in, the Leases, including all rights under the Leases and all benefits to be derived from them. The rights assigned include all authority of the Borrower to modify or terminate Leases, or to exercise any remedies, and the benefits assigned include all Rents. This assignment is present and absolute and includes all rights conferred by Sections 554.231 et seq. and 554.221 et seq., Michigan Compiled Laws, as amended, but under the terms of the Absolute Assignment of Leases and Rents, the Lender has granted the Borrower a conditional license to collect and use the Rents, and to exercise the rights assigned, in a manner consistent with the Obligations, all as more particularly set forth in the Absolute Assignment of Leases and Rents. The Lender may, however, terminate the license by written Notice to the Borrower on certain conditions set forth in the Absolute Assignment of Leases and Rents.

16.

ACCELERATION

If a Default exists, the Lender may, at its option, declare the unpaid principal balance of the Note to be immediately due and payable, together with all accrued interest on the Indebtedness, all costs of collection (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) and all other charges due and payable by the Borrower under the Note or any other Loan Document. If the subject Default has arisen from a failure by the Borrower to make a regular monthly payment of principal and interest, the Lender shall not accelerate the Indebtedness unless the Lender shall have given the Borrower at least three (3) Business Days’ advance Notice of its intent to do so.

If the subject Default is curable and non-monetary in nature, the Lender shall exercise its option to accelerate only by giving Notice of acceleration to the Borrower. The Lender shall not give any such Notice of acceleration until (a) the Borrower has been given any required Notice of the prospective Default and (b) any applicable cure period has expired.

Except as expressly described in this Section, no notice of acceleration shall be required in order for the Lender to exercise its option to accelerate the Indebtedness in the event of Default.

17.

RIGHTS OF ENTRY AND TO OPERATE

17.1

ENTRY ON REAL PROPERTY

If a Default exists, the Lender may, to the extent permitted by law, enter upon the Real Property and take exclusive possession of the Real Property and of all books, records and accounts, all without Notice and without being guilty of trespass, but subject to the rights of tenants in possession under the Leases. If the Borrower remains in possession of all or any part of the Property after Default and without the Lender’s prior written consent, the Lender may, without Notice to the Borrower, invoke any and all legal remedies to dispossess the Borrower.

17.2

OPERATION OF REAL PROPERTY

Following Default, the Lender may hold, lease, manage, operate or otherwise use or permit the use of the Real Property, either itself or by other persons, firms or entities, in such manner, for such time and upon such other terms as the Lender may deem to be prudent under the circumstances (making such repairs, alterations, additions and improvements thereto and taking any and all other action with reference thereto, from time to time, as the Lender deems prudent), and apply all Rents and other amounts collected by the Lender in accordance with the provisions of the Absolute Assignment of Leases and Rents.

18.

RECEIVERSHIP

Following Default, the Lender may apply to a court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a receiver of the Property, ex parte without Notice to the Borrower, whether or not the value of the Property exceeds the Indebtedness, whether or not waste or deterioration of the Real Property has occurred, and whether or not other arguments based on equity would justify the appointment. The Borrower irrevocably, with knowledge and for valuable consideration, consents to such an appointment. Any such receiver shall have all the rights and powers customarily given to receivers in Michigan, including the rights and powers granted to the Lender by this Mortgage, the power to maintain, lease and operate the Real Property on terms approved by the court, and the power to collect the Rents and apply them to the Indebtedness or otherwise as the court may direct. Once appointed, a receiver may at the Lender’s option remain in place until the Indebtedness has been paid in full.

19.

FORECLOSURE

Upon Default, the Lender may immediately proceed to foreclose the lien of this Mortgage, against all or part of the Property by judicial or nonjudicial foreclosure in accordance with the laws of Michigan and may pursue any other remedy available to commercial mortgage lenders under the laws of Michigan. The Mortgagee may proceed to foreclose whether or not it has elected to exercise the power of entry granted by this Mortgage. The Mortgagee may elect, in whatever manner it deems best for the protection and enforcement of its rights, either to foreclose the lien of this Mortgage or to cause the Property to be sold as a whole or in parcels under its power of entry. The sale of the Property may be for cash or on credit, and may be carried out through a single sale or through multiple sales. At any such sale, whether by foreclosure or exercise of the power of sale, all estate, claim, demand, right, title and interest of Mortgagor to the Property [and rights of redemption of the Property] shall be conveyed. Any such sale shall be at such time and place, upon such terms, and after such notice as may be required or permitted by Sections 600.3201 et seq., Michigan Compiled Laws, as amended, or any successor Michigan statute governing the foreclosure of mortgages by advertisement.

20.

WAIVERS

To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Borrower irrevocably and unconditionally WAIVES and RELEASES any present or future rights (a) of reinstatement or redemption (b) that may exempt the Property from any civil process, (c) to appraisal or valuation of the Property, (d) to extension of time for payment, (e) that may subject the Lender’s exercise of its remedies to the administration of any decedent’s estate or to any partition or liquidation action, (f) to any homestead and exemption rights provided by the Constitution and laws of the United States and of Michigan, (g) to notice of acceleration or notice of intent to accelerate (other than as expressly stated herein), and (h) that in any way would delay or defeat the right of the Lender to cause the sale of the Real Property for the purpose of satisfying the Indebtedness. The Borrower agrees that the price paid at a lawful foreclosure sale, whether by the Lender or by a third party, and whether paid through cancellation of all or a portion of the Indebtedness or in cash, shall conclusively establish the value of the Real Property.

The foregoing waivers shall apply to and bind any party assuming the Obligations of the Borrower under this Mortgage.

21.

EXCULPATION CLAUSE AND CARVEOUT OBLIGATIONS

The Lender agrees that it shall not seek to enforce any monetary judgment with respect to any Obligation against the Borrower except through recourse to the Property, unless the Obligation from which the judgment arises is a Carveout Obligation. The Carveout Obligations include (a) the obligation to repay any portion of the Indebtedness that arises because the Lender has advanced funds or incurred expenses in respect of any of the “Carveouts” (as defined below), (b) the obligation to repay the entire Indebtedness, if the Lender’s exculpation of the Borrower from personal liability under this Section has become void as set forth below, (c) the obligation to indemnify the Lender in respect of its actual damages suffered in connection with a Carveout, and (d) the obligation to defend and hold the Lender harmless from and against any claims, judgments, causes of action or proceedings arising from a Carveout. The Carveouts are:

(i)

fraud or material written misrepresentation;

(ii)

waste of the Property (which shall include damage, destruction or disrepair of the Real Property caused by a willful act or grossly negligent omission of the Borrower, but shall exclude ordinary wear and tear in the absence of gross negligence);

(iii)

misappropriation of tenant security deposits (including proceeds of tenant letters of credit), Insurance Proceeds or Condemnation Proceeds;

(iv)

failure to pay property taxes, assessments or other lienable Impositions;

(v)

failure to pay to the Lender all Rents, income and profits (including any rent collected more than one month in advance, or any rent for the last month of the lease term, under any Lease in force at the time of Default), net of reasonable and customary operating expenses, received in respect of a period when the Loan is in Default;

(vi)

removal from the Real Property of Fixtures or Personal Property, unless replaced in a commercially reasonable manner;

(vii)

the out-of-pocket expenses of enforcing the Loan Documents following Default, not including expenses incurred after the Borrower has agreed in writing to transfer the Real Property to the Lender by the Lender’s choice of either an uncontested foreclosure or delivery of a deed in lieu of foreclosure;

(viii)

terminating or amending a Lease in violation of the Loan Documents; and

(ix)

any liability of the Borrower under the Environmental Indemnity Agreement.

The Lender’s exculpation of the Borrower from personal liability for the repayment of the Indebtedness evidenced by this Note shall be void without Notice if the Borrower (A) voluntarily transfers or creates any voluntary lien on the Property in violation of the Mortgage, or (B) files a voluntary petition for reorganization under Title 11 of the United States Code (or under any other present or future law, domestic or foreign, relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization proceedings or otherwise similarly affecting the rights of creditors), and has not offered, prior to the filing, to enter into the Lender’s choice of either an agreement to permit an uncontested foreclosure, or an agreement to deliver a deed in lieu of foreclosure within sixty (60) days of the Lender’s acceptance of the offer. After the Lender accepts such an offer, default by the Borrower in fulfilling the terms of the accepted offer shall trigger personal liability for the entire Indebtedness. No such offer shall be conditioned on any payment by the Lender, on the release of any Obligor from any Obligation, or on any other concession.

INDEMNIFICATION

The Borrower shall be solely responsible for, and shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the Lender and its directors, officers, employees, agents, successors and assigns, from and against, any claim, judgment, loss, damage, demand, cost, expense or liability of whatever kind or nature, known or unknown, contingent or otherwise, directly or indirectly arising out of or attributable to the use, generation, storage, release, threatened release, discharge, disposal, or presence (whether prior to or after the Effective Date of this Mortgage) of Hazardous Substances on, in, under or about the Real Property (whether by the Borrower, a predecessor in title, any tenant, or any employees, agents, contractor or subcontractors of any of the foregoing or any third persons at any time occupying or present on the Real Property), including: (i) personal injury; (ii) death; (iii) damage to property; (iv) all consequential damages; (v) the cost of any required or necessary repair, cleanup or detoxification of the Real Property, including the soil and ground water thereof, and the preparation and implementation of any closure, remedial or other required plans; (vi) damage to any natural resources; and (vii) all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Lender in connection with clauses (i) through (vi), including reasonable attorneys’ and consultants’ fees; provided, however, that nothing contained in this Section shall be deemed to preclude the Borrower from seeking indemnification from, or otherwise proceeding against, any third party including any tenant or predecessor in title to the Real Property, and further provided that this indemnification will not extend to matters caused by the Lender's gross negligence or willful misconduct, or arising from a release of Hazardous Substances which occurs after the Lender has taken possession of the Real Property, so long as the Borrower has not caused the release through any act or omission.

If any suit or action is brought to enforce or interpret any of the terms of this Mortgage (including any effort to modify or vacate any automatic stay or injunction, any trial, any appeal, any petition for review or any bankruptcy proceeding), the Lender shall be entitled to recover all expenses reasonably incurred in preparation for or during the suit or action or in connection with any appeal of the related decision, whether or not taxable as costs. Such expenses include reasonable attorneys’ fees, witness fees (expert or otherwise), deposition costs, copying charges and other expenses. Whether or not any court action is involved, all reasonable expenses, including the costs of searching records, obtaining title reports, appraisals, environmental assessments, surveying costs, title insurance premiums, and reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred by the Lender that are necessary at any time in the Lender’s opinion for the protection of its interest or enforcement of its rights shall become a part of the Indebtedness payable on demand and shall bear interest from the date of expenditure until repaid at the interest rate as provided in the Note.

25.6

GENERAL INDEMNIFICATION

The Borrower shall indemnify, defend and hold the Lender harmless against: (i) any and all claims for brokerage, leasing, finder’s or similar fees which may be made relating to the Real Property or the Indebtedness and (ii) any and all liability, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims, actions, suits costs and expenses (including the Lender's reasonable attorneys’ fees, together with reasonable appellate counsel fees, if any) of whatever kind or nature which may be asserted against, imposed on or incurred by the Lender in connection with the Indebtedness, this Mortgage, the Real Property or any part thereof, or the operation, maintenance and/or use thereof, or the exercise by the Lender of any rights or remedies granted to it under this Mortgage or pursuant to applicable law; provided, however, that nothing herein shall be construed to obligate the Borrower to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Lender from and against any of the foregoing which is imposed on or incurred by the Lender by reason of the Lender’s willful misconduct or gross negligence.

25.7

RECORDING AND FILING

The Borrower shall cause this Mortgage and all amendments, supplements, and substitutions to be recorded, filed, re-recorded and re-filed in such manner and in such places as the Lender may reasonably request. The Borrower will pay all recording filing, re-recording and re-filing taxes, fees and other charges.

25.8

NO WAIVER

No deliberate or unintentional failure by the Lender to require strict performance by the Borrower of any Obligation shall be deemed a waiver, and the Lender shall have the right at any time to require strict performance by the Borrower of any Obligation.

25.9

COVENANTS RUNNING WITH THE LAND

All Obligations are intended by the parties to be and shall be construed as covenants running with the Land.

25.10

SEVERABILITY

The Loan Documents are intended to be performed in accordance with, and only to the extent permitted by, all applicable Legal Requirements. Any provision of the Loan Documents that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall nevertheless be construed and given effect to the extent possible. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision in a particular jurisdiction shall neither invalidate nor render unenforceable any other provision of the Loan Documents in that jurisdiction, and shall not affect the validity or enforceability of that provision in any other jurisdiction. If a provision is held to be invalid or unenforceable as to a particular person or under a particular circumstance, it shall nevertheless be presumed valid and enforceable as to others, or under other circumstances.

25.11

USURY

The parties intend that no provision of the Note or the Loan Documents be interpreted, construed, applied, or enforced so as to permit or require the payment or collection of interest in excess of the Maximum Permitted Rate. In this regard, the Borrower and the Lender each stipulate and agree that it is their common and overriding intent to contract in strict compliance with applicable usury laws. Accordingly, none of the terms of this Mortgage, the Note or any of the other Loan Documents shall ever be construed to create a contract to pay, as consideration for the use, forbearance or detention of money, interest at a rate in excess of the Maximum Permitted Rate, and the Borrower shall never be liable for interest in excess of the Maximum Permitted Rate. Therefore, (a) in the event that the Indebtedness and Obligations are prepaid or the maturity of the Indebtedness and Obligations is accelerated by reason of an election by the Lender, unearned interest shall be canceled and, if theretofore paid, shall either be refunded to the Borrower or credited on the Indebtedness, as the Lender may elect; (b) the aggregate of all interest and other charges constituting interest under applicable laws and contracted for, chargeable or receivable under the Note and the other Loan Documents or otherwise in connection with the transaction contemplated thereby shall never exceed the maximum amount of interest, nor produce a rate in excess of the Maximum Permitted Rate; and (c) if any excess interest is provided for or received, it shall be deemed a mistake, and the same shall, at the option of the Lender, either be refunded to the Borrower or credited on the unpaid principal amount (if any), and the Indebtedness shall be automatically reformed so as to permit only the collection of the interest at the Maximum Permitted Rate. Furthermore, if any provision of the Note or any of the other Loan Documents is interpreted, construed, applied, or enforced, in such a manner as to provide for interest in excess of the Maximum Permitted Rate, then the parties intend that such provision automatically shall be deemed reformed retroactively so as to require payment only of interest at the Maximum Permitted Rate. If, for any reason whatsoever, interest paid or received during the full term of the applicable Indebtedness produces a rate which exceeds the Maximum Permitted Rate, then the amount of such excess shall be deemed credited retroactively in reduction of the then outstanding principal amount of the Indebtedness, together with interest at such Maximum Permitted Rate. The Lender shall credit against the principal of such Indebtedness (or, if such Indebtedness shall have been paid in full, shall refund to the payor of such interest) such portion of said interest as shall be necessary to cause the interest paid to produce a rate equal to the Maximum Permitted Rate. All sums paid or agreed to be paid to the Lender for the use, forbearance or detention of money shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread in equal parts throughout the full term of the applicable Indebtedness, so that the interest rate is uniform throughout the full term of such Indebtedness. In connection with all calculations to determine the Maximum Permitted Rate, the parties intend that all charges be excluded to the extent they are properly excludable under applicable usury laws, as they from time to time are determined to apply to this transaction. The provisions of this Section shall control all agreements, whether now or hereafter existing and whether written or oral, between the Borrower and the Lender.

25.12

ENTIRE AGREEMENT

The Loan Documents contain the entire agreements between the parties relating to the financing of the Real Property, and all prior agreements which are not contained in the Loan Documents and the unsecured Environmental Indemnity Agreement, are terminated. The Loan Documents represent the final agreement between the parties and may not be contradicted by evidence of prior, contemporaneous, or subsequent oral agreements of the parties. There are no unwritten oral agreements between the parties. The Loan Documents may be amended, revised, waived, discharged, released or terminated only by a written instrument or instruments executed by the party against whom enforcement of the amendment, revision, waiver, discharge, release or termination is asserted. Any alleged amendment, revision, waiver, discharge, release or termination that is not so documented shall be null and void.

25.13

25.15

CHOICE OF LAW

This Mortgage shall be interpreted, construed, applied, and enforced according to, and will be governed by, the laws of Michigan, without regard to any choice of law principle which, but for this provision, would require the application of the law of another jurisdiction and regardless of where executed or delivered, where payable or paid, where any cause of action accrues in connection with this transaction, where any action or other proceeding involving the Loan is instituted, or whether the laws of Michigan otherwise would apply the laws of another jurisdiction.

25.16

FORUM SELECTION

The Borrower agrees that the sole and exclusive forum for the determination of any action relating to the validity and enforceability of the Note, this Mortgage and the other Loan Documents, and any other instruments securing the Note shall be either in an appropriate court of the State of Michigan or the applicable United States District Court.

25.17

SOLE BENEFIT

This Mortgage and the other Loan Documents have been executed for the sole benefit of the Borrower and the Lender and the successors and assigns of the Lender. No other party shall have rights thereunder or be entitled to assume that the parties thereto will insist upon strict performance of their mutual obligations hereunder, any of which may be waived from time to time. The Borrower shall have no right to assign any of its rights under the Loan Documents to any party whatsoever, except in connection with a Permitted Transfer.

25.18

RELEASE OF CLAIMS

The Borrower hereby RELEASES, DISCHARGES and ACQUITS forever the Lender and its officers, directors, trustees, agents, employees and counsel (in each case, past, present or future) from any and all Claims existing as of the Effective Date (or the date of actual execution hereof by the Borrower, if later). As used herein, the term “Claim” shall mean any and all liabilities, claims, defenses, demands, actions, causes of action, judgments, deficiencies, interest, liens, costs or expenses (including court costs, penalties, attorneys’ fees and disbursements, and amounts paid in settlement) of any kind and character whatsoever, including claims for usury, breach of contract, breach of commitment, negligent misrepresentation or failure to act in good faith, in each case whether now known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, asserted or unasserted or primary or contingent, and whether arising out of written documents, unwritten undertakings, course of conduct, tort, violations of laws or regulations or otherwise.

25.19

NO PARTNERSHIP

Nothing contained in the Loan Documents is intended to create any partnership, joint venture or association between the Borrower and the Lender, or in any way make the Lender a co-principal with the Borrower with reference to the Property.

25.20

PAYOFF PROCEDURES

If the Borrower pays or causes to be paid to the Lender all of the Indebtedness, then Xxxxxx’s interest in the Real Property shall cease, and upon receipt by the Lender of such payment, the Lender shall either (a) release this Mortgage or (b) assign the Loan Documents and endorse the Note (in either case without recourse or warranty of any kind) to a takeout lender, upon payment (in the latter case) of an administrative fee of $750.

25.21

FUTURE ADVANCES

This Mortgage is a “Future Advance Mortgage” under Act No. 348 of Public Acts of Michigan of 1990, as amended. All future advances under the Note, this Mortgage or under any other agreement at any time made between the Borrower and the Lender, shall have the priority as if the future advance were made on the date that this Mortgage was recorded. This Mortgage shall secure all indebtedness of the Borrower, and of its successors and assigns, under this Mortgage, whenever incurred. Notice is hereby given that the indebtedness secured hereby may also increase as a result of any defaults hereunder by the Borrower due to, for example, and without limitation, unpaid interest or late charges under the Note, unpaid taxes or insurance premiums which the Lender elects to advance, defaults under Leases the Lender elects to cure, attorneys’ fees or costs incurred in enforcing the Note, this Mortgage or any of the other Loan Documents or other expenses incurred by the Lender in protecting the Property, the security of this Mortgage or the rights and interests of the Lender, including protective advances as defined in Section 565.901(c), Michigan Compiled Laws, as amended. The maximum principal amount of this Mortgage, exclusive of such protective advances, is $5,360,000.

25.22

INTERPRETATION

(a)

Headings and General Application

The section, subsection, paragraph and subparagraph headings of this Mortgage are provided for convenience of reference only and shall in no way affect, modify or define, or be used in construing, the text of the sections, subsections, paragraphs or subparagraphs. If the text requires, words used in the singular shall be read as including the plural, and pronouns of any gender shall include all genders.

(b)

Sole Discretion

The Lender may take any action or decide any matter under the terms of this Mortgage or of any other Loan Document (including any consent, approval, acceptance, option, election or authorization) in its sole and absolute discretion, for any reason or for no reason, unless the related Loan Document contains specific language to the contrary. Any approval or consent that the Lender might withhold may be conditioned in any way.

(c)

Result of Negotiations

This Mortgage results from negotiations between the Borrower and the Lender and from their mutual efforts. Therefore, it shall be so construed, and not as though it had been prepared solely by the Lender.

(d)

Reference to Particulars

The scope of a general statement made in this Mortgage or in any other Loan Document shall not be construed as having been reduced through the inclusion of references to particular items that would be included within the statement’s scope. Therefore, unless the relevant provision of a Loan Document contains specific language to the contrary, the term “include” shall mean “include, but shall not be limited to” and the term “including” shall mean “including, without limitation.”

25.23

INDEBTEDNESS MAY EXCEED NOTE’S FACE AMOUNT

The Borrower’s successors or assigns are hereby placed on Notice that the Note contains late charge, prepayment and other provisions which may result in the outstanding principal balance exceeding the face amount of the Note.

25.24

JOINT AND SEVERAL LIABILITY

If there is more than one individual or entity executing this Mortgage as the Borrower, liability of such individuals and entities under this Mortgage shall be joint and several.

25.25

TIME OF ESSENCE

Time is of the essence of each and every covenant, condition and provision of this Mortgage to be performed by the Borrower.

25.26

JURY WAIVER

THE BORROWER AND BY ITS ACCEPTANCE HEREOF, THE LENDER, HEREBY WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING TO ENFORCE OR DEFEND ANY RIGHTS (I) UNDER THIS MORTGAGE OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR (II) ARISING FROM ANY LENDING RELATIONSHIP EXISTING IN CONNECTION WITH THIS MORTGAGE OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT, AND THE BORROWER AND BY ITS ACCEPTANCE HEREOF, THE LENDER, AGREE THAT ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING SHALL BE TRIED BEFORE A JUDGE AND NOT BEFORE A JURY.

25.27

RENEWAL, EXTENSION, MODIFICATION AND WAIVER

The Lender, at its option, may at any time renew or extend this Mortgage, the Note or any other Loan Document with the Borrower’s consent. The Lender may enter into a modification of any Loan Document or of the Environmental Indemnity Agreement without the consent of any person not a party to the document being modified. The Lender may waive any covenant or condition of any Loan Document or of the Environmental Indemnity Agreement, in whole or in part, at the request of any person then having an interest in the Property or in any way liable for any part of the Indebtedness. The Lender may take, release, or resort to any security for the Note and the Obligations and may release any party primarily or secondarily liable on any Loan Document or on the Environmental Indemnity Agreement, all without affecting any liability not expressly released in writing by the Lender.

25.28

CUMULATIVE REMEDIES

Every right and remedy provided in this Mortgage shall be cumulative of every other right or remedy of the Lender, whether conferred by law or by grant or contract, and may be enforced concurrently with any such right or remedy. The acceptance of the performance of any obligation to cure any Default shall not be construed as a waiver of any rights with respect to any other past, present or future Default. No waiver in a particular instance of the requirement that any Obligation be performed shall be construed as a waiver with respect to any other Obligation or instance.

25.29

NO OBLIGATION TO MARSHAL ASSETS

No holder of any mortgage, security interest or other encumbrance affecting all or any portion of the Real Property, which encumbrance is inferior to the title and security interest of this Mortgage, shall have any right to require the Lender to marshal assets.

25.30

TRANSFER OF OWNERSHIP

The Lender may, without notice to the Borrower, deal with any person in whom ownership of any part of the Real Property has vested, without in any way vitiating or discharging the Borrower from liability for any of the Obligations.

25.31

MECHANICS’ LIEN LAW

The Lender shall be and hereby is authorized and empowered to do, as mortgagee, all things provided to be done in the mechanics’ lien laws of the State of Michigan (including Sections 570.1101 et seq., Michigan Compiled Laws) and all acts amendatory or supplementary thereto.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Borrower has caused this Mortgage to be duly executed as of the Effective Date.
