Amendment, all capitalized terms used in this Amendment shall have the
respective meanings given to them in the Original Mortgage. The Original
Mortgage, as modified by this Amendment, is referred to herein as the
"Mortgage". From and after the date hereof, all references in the Original

secure, inter alia, (a) all of the Mortgagor's obligations and liabilities under
the New Guaranty, (b) all of the Mortgagor's obligations and liabilities under
the Mortgage, and (c) all of the Parent's obligations and liabilities under the

Accordingly, from and after the date hereof (and without limiting the generality
of the foregoing), (i) all references in the Original Mortgage to the "Notes"

(a) From and after the date hereof, the following two sentences
are added to Section 3 of the Original Mortgage, after the first sentence of
such Section 3: "The Mortgagor shall also maintain commercial general liability
insurance with respect to the Premises and the Improvements, on an "occurrence"
basis and in such amounts and containing such coverage as shall be reasonably
required by the Collateral Agent (so long as such amounts and coverage do not
exceed what is customarily required of owners of other comparable buildings in
the Xxxxxx County, New Jersey area by institutional commercial lenders). The
Mortgagee shall be named as an additional insured on such commercial general
liability policy."
(b) From and after the date hereof, clause (v) in the first
sentence of Section 43 of the Original Mortgage shall be deleted and replaced
with the following: "(v) any accident, injury to or death of persons or loss of
or damage to property occurring in, on or about the Mortgaged Property, and (vi)
any enforcement of this indemnification."
4. Representations and Warranties. The Mortgagor represents and
warrants to the Mortgagee that all of the Mortgagor's representations and
warranties contained in Section 2, Section 7 and Section 9(b) of the Original
Mortgage are true and correct as of the date hereof, as if first made on the
date hereof (with the understanding that all references in such Sections to
"this Mortgage" or words of similar import shall mean the Original Mortgage, as
modified by this Amendment). In addition (and without limiting the generality of
the foregoing), the Mortgagor represents and warrants to the Mortgagee that:
(a) Contemporaneously with, and in consideration for, the
execution and delivery of this Amendment, the Mortgagor is receiving new value
from the
-3-
Mortgagee, which new value is reasonably equivalent value in exchange for this
Amendment; and the execution and delivery of this Amendment by the Mortgagor
does not constitute a "fraudulent conveyance" within the meaning of Title 11 of
the United States Code as now constituted or under any other applicable statute.
(b) The Mortgagor (i) has full power, authority and legal right
to execute and deliver this Amendment and to consummate the transactions
contemplated hereby, and (ii) has heretofore obtained all consents and approvals
(whether internal, third party or otherwise) required in connection with such
execution, delivery and consummation.
(c) Upon recording of this Amendment, the Mortgagee will continue
to have a first priority lien on the real property and fixtures included within
the Mortgaged Property (notwithstanding the consummation of the transactions
contemplated by the New Purchase Agreement, including, without limitation, the
execution of this Amendment and the New Notes). In addition, without any
additional filings, the Mortgagee will continue to have a valid, perfected and
first priority security interest in the personal property included in the
Mortgaged Property (notwithstanding the consummation of the transactions
contemplated by the New Purchase Agreement, including, without limitation, the
execution of this Amendment and the New Notes).
(d) No default exists under that certain Developer's Agreement,
dated September 1, 1999, between the Township of East Windsor and Simon
Developments, LLC, that encumbers the Premises; and no event has occurred which,
with the passage of time or the giving of notice or both, would constitute such
a default.
5. New Jersey Provisions. The following Section 48 is hereby added to
the Original Mortgage:
"48 New Jersey Provisions. This Mortgage is subject to
modification as provided in N.J.S.A 46:9-8.1, and with respect to any
such modification, the priority of this Mortgage shall relate back to
and remain as it was at the time of recording of this Mortgage as if
the modification was included herein or as if the modification occurred
at the time of the recording of this Mortgage."
6. Miscellaneous. (a) The Mortgagor acknowledges that, as of the date
hereof, Tail Wind is the Collateral Agent (as defined in and for purposes of the
Mortgage). Except as expressly modified hereby, the Original Mortgage remains
unmodified and in full force and effect. The Original Mortgage, as amended by
this Amendment, is hereby ratified and confirmed in all respects by the
Mortgagor. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Mortgagor
represents and warrants to the Mortgagee that, as of the date hereof, (i) the
Mortgagor has no offsets, counterclaims or defenses to the enforcement of, or
otherwise with respect to, the Mortgage, and (ii) no Event of Default exists
under the Mortgage.
-4-
(b) In the event of any conflict or inconsistency between the
terms, covenants and provisions of this Amendment and those of the Original
Mortgage, the terms, covenants and provisions of this Amendment shall control.
(c) This Amendment may not be modified, amended, changed or
terminated except by an agreement in writing signed by the Mortgagor and the
Mortgagee.
(d) This Amendment shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit
of the Mortgagor and the Mortgagee and their respective successors and assigns.
(e) This Amendment may be executed in counterparts, each of which
shall be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and
the same instrument.
(f) This Amendment shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the State of New Jersey.
