Default; Remedies. The occurrence of any of the following shall constitute an “Event of Default” under this Indemnity: (a) any breach by Indemnitor of any provision of this Indemnity; or (b) any other failure by Indemnitor to perform when due any obligation on its part to be performed hereunder. Upon the occurrence of a default by Indemnitor under this Indemnity, Lender may, in its sole discretion, (i) declare the same to constitute an event of default under the Mortgage and exercise any and all remedies provided therein for an event of default, (ii) bring a court action to enforce the provisions of this Indemnity, and/or (iii) exercise any other right or remedy available to Lender under any other document or instrument now or hereafter existing or at law or in equity. 4.

Independent Obligations; Survival. Indemnitor’s obligations under this Indemnity are unconditional, unsecured, and separate, independent and distinct from the obligations evidenced by the Note and secured by the Mortgage. No repayment of the Note or discharge, reconveyance or foreclosure of the Mortgage or any other termination of the lien thereof shall terminate or otherwise affect Indemnitor’s obligations under this Indemnity, which obligations shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, survive repayment of the Note and reconveyance of the Mortgage, and any sale or other transfer of the Property, whether by sale, foreclosure, deed in lieu of foreclosure, or otherwise. 7. Fees and Expenses. Indemnitor shall reimburse Lender within twenty (20) days of written demand for all reasonable legal fees and other costs and expenses incurred in enforcing this Indemnity, together with interest thereon from the date due until paid at ten percent (10%) per annum (or the maximum rate permitted by applicable law if that is less). Such fees, costs and expenses shall include those incurred with or without suit and in any appeal, any proceedings under any present or future federal bankruptcy act or state receivership, and any post-judgment collection proceedings. 8. Miscellaneous. The obligations under this Indemnity of each Indemnitor shall be joint and several. This Indemnity shall be binding upon Indemnitor and its heirs, representatives, successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of Lender and its successors and assigns. This Indemnity shall be governed under the laws of the State of New York. Lender’s rights and remedies under this Indemnity shall be in addition to any other rights and remedies available to Lender under any other document or instrument now or hereafter existing or at law or in equity. The failure of Lender to promptly enforce any right or remedy under this Indemnity shall not constitute a waiver thereof and shall not affect or impair the liability of Indemnitor. If any provision of this Indemnity is invalid, illegal or unenforceable, such provision shall be considered severed from the rest of this Indemnity and the remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect as if the invalid provision had not been included. Any notice to Indemnitor under this Indemnity shall be to the address given below, or such other address as may be designated by Indemnitor in writing, and shall be deemed to have been given on the date delivered in the case of personal delivery or, if mailed, three (3) days after the postmark thereof.
