Section 3.3
Insurance.
- Borrower shall obtain and maintain, or cause to be maintained, insurance for Borrower and the Property providing at least the following coverages:
Property Insurance. Insurance with respect to the Improvements and building equipment insuring against any peril included within the classification "All Risks of Physical Loss" in amounts at all times sufficient to prevent Lender from becoming a co-insurer within the terms of the applicable policies and under applicable law, but in any event such insurance shall be maintained in an amount equal to the full insurable value of the Improvements and building equipment, the term "full insurable value" to mean the actual replacement cost of the Improvements and building equipment (without taking into account any depreciation, and exclusive of excavations, footings and foundations, landscaping and paving) determined annually by an insurer or an independent appraiser selected and paid by Borrower and in no event less than the coverage required pursuant to the terms of any Lease. Borrower shall also maintain insurance against loss or damage to such furniture, furnishings, fixtures, equipment and other items (whether personalty or fixtures) included in the Property and owned by Borrower from time to time, to the extent applicable, in the amount of the cost of replacing the same, with annual valuation. Each policy or policies shall contain a replacement cost endorsement and either an agreed amount endorsement (to avoid the operation of any co-insurance provisions) or a waiver of any co-insurance provisions, all subject to Lender's approval. There shall be no exclusion for terrorism or terrorist acts. The maximum deductible shall be $25,000.00; provided, however, that if Borrower shall fail to pay all or any portion of a deductible between $10,000 and $25,000, then Borrower and Indemnitor shall be liable to Lender for any Losses incurred by Lender as a result of such failure, all pursuant to Section 15.3 hereof;
Liability Insurance. Comprehensive general liability insurance, including personal injury, bodily injury, death and property damage liability, insurance against any and all claims, including all legal liability to the extent insurable and imposed upon Lender and all court costs and attorneys' fees and expenses, arising out of or connected with the possession, use, leasing, operation, maintenance or condition of the Property in such amounts as are generally available at commercially reasonable premiums and are generally required by institutional lenders for properties comparable to the Property but in no event for a combined single limit of less than $6,000,000 per occurrence and $7,000,000 in the aggregate. During any construction of the Property, Mortgagor's general contractor for such construction shall also provide the insurance required in this Subsection (ii). Lender hereby retains the right to periodically review the amount of said liability insurance being maintained by Borrower and to require an increase in the amount of said liability insurance should Lender deem an increase to be reasonably prudent under then existing circumstances;
Workers' Compensation Insurance. Statutory workers' compensation insurance with respect to any work on or about the Property covering all persons subject to the workers' compensation laws of the state in which the Property is located;
6
Business Interruption. Business interruption and/or loss of "rental income" insurance in an amount sufficient to avoid any co-insurance penalty and to provide proceeds which will cover a period of not less than one (1) year from the date of casualty or loss with a six month extended period of indemnity (or some other period acceptable to Lender in all respects, but no less than three months), the term "rental income" to mean the sum of (A) the total then ascertainable Rents payable under the Leases and (B) the total ascertainable amount of all other amounts to be received by Borrower from third parties which are the legal obligation of the tenants, reduced to the extent such amounts would not be received because of operating expenses not incurred during a period of non-occupancy of that portion of the Property then not being occupied. The amount of coverage shall be adjusted annually to reflect the rents payable during the succeeding twelve (12) month period;
Boiler and Machinery Insurance. Broad form boiler and machinery insurance (without exclusion for explosion) covering all boilers or other pressure vessels, machinery, and equipment located in, on or about the Property and insurance against loss of occupancy or use arising from any breakdown in such amount per accident equal to the replacement value of the improvements housing the machinery or $2,000,000 or such other amount reasonably determined by Lender. If one or more large HVAC units is in operation at the Property, "System Breakdowns" coverage shall be required, as determined by Mortgagee. Minimum liability coverage per accident must equal the value of such unit(s);
Flood Insurance. Although not currently required, if ever required by Subsection 5.6(a) hereof, flood insurance in an amount at least equal to the lesser of (A) the minimum amount required, under the terms of coverage, to compensate for any damage or loss on a replacement basis (or the unpaid balance of the indebtedness secured hereby if replacement cost coverage is not available for the type of building insured); or (B) the maximum insurance available under the appropriate National Flood Insurance Administration program. The deductible may not exceed $25,000;
During the period of any construction, renovation or alteration of the Improvements which exceeds the lesser of 10% of the principal amount of the Note or $500,000, at Lender's request, a completed value, "All Risk" Builder's Risk form, or "Course of Construction" insurance policy in non-reporting form for any Improvements under construction, renovation or alteration in an amount approved by Lender may be required. During the period of any construction of any addition to the existing Improvements, a completed value, "All Risk" Builder's Risk form or "Course of Construction" insurance policy in non-reporting form, in an amount approved by Lender, shall be required;
Other Insurance. Such other insurance with respect to the Property or on any replacements or substitutions thereof or additions thereto as may from time to time be required by Lender against other insurable hazards or casualties which at the time are commonly insured against in the case of property similarly situated, including, without limitation, sinkhole, mine subsidence, earthquake and environmental insurance, due regard being given to the height and type of buildings, their construction, location, use and occupancy.
7
- All insurance provided for in Subsection 3.3(a) hereof shall be obtained under valid and enforceable policies (the "Policies" or in the singular, the "Policy"), and shall be issued by one or more domestic primary insurer(s) having (i) an investment grade rating of "A" or better ("AA" or better for Loans of 25 million dollars or more), or a comparable claims paying ability assigned by S & P of equivalent one or more credit rating agencies approved by Lender (a "Rating Agency"). All insurers providing insurance required by this Security Instrument shall be authorized to issue insurance in the state in which the Property is located. The Policy referred to in Subsection 3.3(a)(ii) above shall name Lender as an additional insured and the Policies referred to in Subsections 3.3(a)(i), (iv), (v) and (vi) above shall provide that all proceeds be payable to Lender as set forth in Section 4.4 hereof. The Policies referred to in Subsections 3.3(a)(i), (v) and (vi) shall also contain: (i) a standard "non-contributory mortgagee" endorsement or its equivalent relating, inter alia, to recovery by Lender notwithstanding the negligent or willful acts or omissions of Borrower. All Policies described in Subsection 3.3(a) above shall (i) contain a provision that such Policies shall not be cancelled or terminated, nor shall they expire, without at least thirty (30) days' prior written notice to Lender in each instance (except for any policies under a financing arrangement, in which case the Policies must provide that the carrier shall endeavor to provide such 30-day prior written notice to Lender in each instance); and (ii) include effective waivers by the insurer of all claims for Insurance Premiums (defined below) against any mortgagees, loss payees, additional insureds and named insureds (other than Borrower). Although the Property currently constitutes a legal conforming use, if the Property or the Improvements ever constitutes a legal non-conforming use under applicable building, zoning or land use laws or ordinances, the applicable Policy shall include an ordinance or law coverage endorsement which will contain Coverage A: "Loss Due to Operation of Law" (with a minimum liability limit equal to Replacement Cost With Agreed Value Endorsement), Coverage B: "Demolition Cost" and Coverage C: "Increased Cost of Construction" coverages. Certificates of insurance with respect to all renewal and replacement Policies shall be delivered to Lender not less than ten (10) days prior to the expiration date of any of the Policies required to be maintained hereunder which certificates shall bear notations evidencing payment of applicable premiums (the "Insurance Premiums"). Originals or certificates of such replacement Policies shall be delivered to Lender promptly after Borrower's receipt thereof but in any case within thirty (30) days after the effective date thereof. If Borrower fails to maintain and deliver to Lender the original Policies or certificates of insurance required by this Security Instrument, upon five (5) days' prior notice to Borrower, Lender may procure such insurance at Borrower's sole cost and expense. No policy shall have any exclusion for terrorism or terrorist acts. The current Policies do not exclude coverage for terrorism or terrorist acts. Upon renewal or replacement of the Policies required under clauses (i) and (iv) of Section 3.3(a) above and in effect as of the date hereof, no Policy shall have any exclusion for terrorism or terrorist acts, provided such coverage is available at commercially reasonable rates. If coverage for terrorism or terrorist acts is not available as of the date of such renewal at commercially reasonably rates, but subsequently becomes so available, then, at such time, Borrower shall obtain and thereafter maintain said coverage. For purposes hereof, coverage for terrorism or terrorist acts shall not be deemed "available at commercially reasonable rates" if the additional premium for such coverage equals more than fifty percent (50%) of the premium for the Policies required under clauses (i) and (iv) of Section 3.3(a) without coverage for terrorism or terrorist acts.
- Borrower shall comply with all insurance requirements and shall not bring or keep or permit to be brought or kept any article upon any of the Property or cause or permit any condition to exist thereon which would be prohibited by an insurance requirement, or would invalidate the insurance coverage required hereunder to be maintained by Borrower on or with respect to any part of the Property pursuant to this Section 3.3.
8
- If the Property shall be damaged or destroyed, in whole or in part, by fire or other casualty, Borrower shall give prompt notice of such damage to Lender and provided that Borrower shall have received the Net Proceeds, Borrower shall promptly commence and diligently prosecute the completion of the repair and restoration of the Property as nearly as possible to the condition the Property was in immediately prior to such fire or other casualty, with such alterations as may be approved by Lender (the "Restoration") and otherwise in accordance with Section 4.4 of this Security Instrument.
- The insurance coverage required under Section 3.3(a) may be effected under a blanket Policy or Policies covering the Property and other properties and assets not constituting a part of the security hereunder; provided that any such blanket Policy shall specify, except in the case of public liability insurance, the portion of the total coverage of such Policy that is allocated to the Property, and any sublimit in such blanket Policy applicable to the Property, and shall in any case comply in all other respects with the requirements of this Section 3.3.
- The insurance coverage required under Subsection 3.3(a)(ii) may be satisfied by a layering of Commercial General Liability, Umbrella and Excess Liability Policies, but in no event will the Commercial General Liability policy be written for an amount less than $1,000,000 per occurrence and $2,000,000 aggregate for bodily injury and property damage liability, and in no event shall the Umbrella and Excess Liability Policies be written for an amount of less than $5,000,000.00.
- The delivery to Lender of the insurance Policies or the certificates of insurance as provided above shall constitute an assignment of all proceeds payable under such insurance as relating to the Property by Borrower to Lender as further security for the indebtedness secured hereby. In the event of foreclosure of this Security Instrument, or other transfer of title to the Property in extinguishment in whole or in part of the secured indebtedness, all right, title and interest of Borrower in and to all proceeds payable under such Policies then in force concerning the Property shall thereupon vest in the purchaser at such foreclosure, or in Lender or other transferee in the event of such other transfer of title. Approval of any insurance by Lender shall not be a representation of the solvency of any insurer or the sufficiency of any amount of insurance.
- Lender shall not be responsible for nor incur any liability for the insolvency of the insurer or other failure of the insurer to perform, even though Lender has caused the insurance to be placed with the insurer after failure of Borrower to furnish such insurance. Borrower shall not obtain insurance for the Property in addition to that required by Lender without the prior written consent of Lender, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld provided that (i) Lender is additional insured on such insurance, (ii) Lender receives complete copies of all policies or certificates evidencing such insurance, and (iii) such insurance complies with all of the applicable requirements set forth herein.
Section 3.4 Payment of Taxes, Etc.
9
- Borrower shall pay by their due date (subject to any applicable grace period during which borrower is not charged interest or penalties) all taxes, assessments, water rates, sewer rents, governmental impositions, and other charges, including, without limitation, vault charges and license fees for the use of vaults, chutes and similar areas adjoining the Land, now or hereafter levied or assessed or imposed against the Property or any part thereof (the "Taxes"), all ground rents, maintenance charges and similar charges, now or hereafter levied or assessed or imposed against the Property or any part thereof, and all charges for utility services provided to the Property as same become due and payable (the "Other Charges"). Borrower will deliver to Lender, promptly upon Lender's request, evidence satisfactory to Lender that the Taxes, Other Charges and utility service charges have been so paid or are not then delinquent. Borrower shall not suffer and shall promptly cause to be paid and discharged any lien or charge whatsoever which may be or become a lien or charge against the Property. Except to the extent sums sufficient to pay all Taxes and Other Charges have been deposited with Lender in accordance with the terms of this Security Instrument, Borrower shall furnish to Lender paid receipts for the payment of the Taxes and Other Charges prior to the date the same shall become delinquent.
- After prior written notice to Lender, Borrower, at its own expense, may contest by appropriate legal proceeding, promptly initiated and conducted in good faith and with due diligence, the amount or validity or application in whole or in part of any of the Taxes, provided that (i) no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing under the Note, this Security Instrument or any of the Other Security Documents, (ii) Borrower is permitted to do so under the provisions of any other mortgage, deed of trust or deed to secure debt affecting the Property, (iii) such proceeding shall suspend the collection of the Taxes from Borrower and from the Property or Borrower shall have paid all of the Taxes under protest, (iv) such proceeding shall be permitted under and be conducted in accordance with the provisions of any other instrument to which Borrower is subject and shall not constitute a default thereunder, (v) neither the Property nor any part thereof or interest therein will be in danger of being sold, forfeited, terminated, cancelled or lost, (vi) Borrower shall have set aside adequate reserves for the payment of the Taxes, together with all interest and penalties thereon, unless Borrower has paid all of the Taxes under protest, and (vii) Borrower shall have furnished the security as may be required in the proceeding, or as may be reasonably requested by Lender to insure the payment of any contested Taxes, together with all interest and penalties thereon, taking into consideration the amount in the Escrow Fund available for payment of Taxes.
Section 3.5
Escrow Fund. At the option of Lender, Lender may require Borrower to establish an Escrow Fund (defined below) sufficient to discharge its obligations for the payment of Insurance Premiums and Taxes pursuant to Sections 3.3 and 3.4 hereof. Additionally, Borrower shall pay to Lender on each "Payment Date" (as defined in the Note) (a) one-twelfth of an amount which would be sufficient to pay the Taxes payable, or estimated by Lender to be payable, upon the due dates established by the appropriate taxing authority during the next ensuing twelve (12) months and (b) one-twelfth of an amount which would be sufficient to pay the Insurance Premiums due for the renewal of the coverage afforded by the Policies upon the expiration thereof (the initial deposits together with the amounts in (a) and (b) above shall be called the "Escrow Fund"). Borrower agrees to notify Lender immediately of any changes to the amounts, schedules and instructions for payment of any Taxes and Insurance Premiums of which it has obtained knowledge and authorizes Lender or its agent to obtain the bills for Taxes and Other Charges directly from the appropriate tax authority. The Escrow Fund and the payments of interest or principal or both, payable pursuant to the Note shall be added together and shall be paid as an aggregate sum by Borrower to Lender. Provided there are sufficient amounts in the Escrow Fund and no Event of Default exists, Lender shall be
10
obligated to pay the Taxes and Insurance Premiums as they become due on their respective due dates on behalf of Borrower by applying the Escrow Fund to the payments of such Taxes and Insurance Premiums required to be made by Borrower pursuant to Sections 3.3 and 3.4 hereof. If the amount of the Escrow Fund shall exceed the amounts due for Taxes and Insurance Premiums pursuant to Sections 3.3 and 3.4 hereof, Lender shall, in its discretion, return any excess to Borrower or credit such excess against future payments to be made to the Escrow Fund. In allocating such excess, Lender may deal with the person shown on the records of Lender to be the owner of the Property. If the Escrow Fund is not sufficient to pay the items set forth in (a) and (b) above, Borrower shall promptly pay to Lender, upon demand, an amount which Lender shall reasonably estimate as sufficient to make up the deficiency. The Escrow Fund shall not constitute a trust fund and may be commingled with other monies held by Lender. Notwithstanding the foregoing, provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Lender agrees to forebear collection from Borrower of monthly deposits of Insurance Premiums provided that (i) an initial deposit of Insurance Premiums shall be made by Borrower to Lender in the amount of $17,500 on the date hereof to be held by Lender in escrow, such escrowed amount to be increased yearly by an amount that Lender determines in its reasonable discretion to be adequate to account for the increase in premiums due to inflation or otherwise and payable by Borrower within ten (10) days of demand therefor; and (ii) Borrower delivers to Lender certificates of insurance with respect to all renewal and replacement policies within the time permitted by Lender set forth in Section 3.3(b) hereof prior to the expiration date of any of the Policies required to be maintained hereunder, which certificates shall bear notation evidencing payment of all applicable Insurance Premiums, and (iii) Borrower has otherwise complied with all of the terms and conditions of Section 3.3(b) hereof.
Section 3.6
Condemnation. Borrower shall promptly give Lender notice of the actual or threatened commencement of any condemnation or eminent domain proceeding and shall deliver to Lender copies of any and all papers served in connection with such proceedings. Lender may participate in any such proceedings to the extent permitted by law. Upon an Event of Default, Borrower shall deliver to Lender all instruments requested by it to permit such participation. Borrower shall, at its expense, diligently prosecute any such proceedings, and shall consult with Lender, its attorneys and experts, and cooperate with them in the carrying on or defense of any such proceedings. Borrower shall not make any agreement in lieu of condemnation of the Property or any portion thereof without the prior written consent of Lender in each instance, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed in the case of a taking of an insubstantial portion of the Property. Notwithstanding any taking by any public or quasi-public authority through eminent domain or otherwise (including, but not limited to any transfer made in lieu of or in anticipation of the exercise of such taking), Borrower shall continue to pay the Debt at the time and in the manner provided for its payment in the Note and in this Security Instrument and the Debt shall not be reduced until any award or payment therefor shall have been actually received and applied by Lender, after the deduction of expenses of collection, to the reduction or discharge of the Debt. Lender shall not be limited to the interest paid on the award by the condemning authority but shall be entitled to receive out of the award interest at the rate or rates provided herein or in the Note. If the Property or any portion thereof is taken by the power of eminent domain, Borrower shall promptly commence and diligently prosecute the Restoration of the Property and otherwise comply with the provisions of in accordance with Section 4.4 of this Security Instrument. If the Property is sold, through foreclosure or otherwise, prior to the receipt by Lender of the award or payment, Lender shall have the right, whether or not a deficiency judgment on the Note shall have been sought, recovered or denied, to receive the award or payment, or a portion thereof sufficient to pay the Debt.

Borrower shall not initiate, join in, acquiesce in, or consent to any change in any private restrictive covenant, zoning law or other public or private restriction, limiting or defining the uses which may be made of the Property or any part thereof. If under applicable zoning provisions the use of all or any portion of the Property is or shall become a nonconforming use, Borrower will not cause or permit the nonconforming use or Improvement to be discontinued or abandoned without the express written consent of Lender. As part of routine maintenance, Borrower shall, within twelve (12) months of the date hereof, (i) clean the stained area in the vicinity of the hydraulic compactor on the southwest corner of the Property and (ii) repair the hydraulic oil leak in the elevator in the northern building of the Property and clean the stain in the elevator pit.

Borrower shall commence and diligently prosecute to completion, subject to Force Majeure (defined below), the Restoration (in the case of a taking, to the extent the Property is capable of being restored). The term "Net Proceeds" for purposes of this Section 4.4 shall mean: (i) the net amount of all insurance proceeds received by Lender under the Policies carried pursuant to Subsections 3.3(a)(i), (iv), (v), (vi) and (vii) of this Security Instrument as a result of such damage or destruction, after deduction of its reasonable costs and expenses (including, but not limited to reasonable counsel fees), if any, in collecting the same, or (ii) the net amount of all awards and payments received by Lender with respect to a taking referenced in Section 3.6 of this Security Instrument, after deduction of its reasonable costs and expenses (including, but not limited to reasonable counsel fees), if any, in collecting the same, whichever the case may be. The term "Force Majeure" for the purpose of this Section 4.4 shall have the following meaning: Borrower shall be excused for the period of any delay in the performance of any obligations hereunder when prevented from so doing by cause or causes beyond Borrower's control such as, without limitation, all labor disputes, civil commotion, war, war-like operations, invasion, rebellion, hostilities, military or usurped power, sabotage, governmental regulations or controls, fire or other casualty, inability to obtain any materials or services, and acts of God.
The Net Proceeds shall be made available to Borrower for payment of, or reimbursement of Borrower's expenses in connection with, the Restoration, subject to the following conditions:
no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing under the Note, this Security Instrument or any of the Other Security Documents;
19
Lender shall, within a reasonable period of time prior to request for initial disbursement, be furnished with an estimate of the cost of the Restoration accompanied by an independent architect's certification as to such costs and appropriate plans and specifications for the Restoration;
the Net Proceeds, together with any cash or cash equivalent deposited by Borrower with Lender, are sufficient to cover the cost of the Restoration as such costs are certified by the independent architect;
(1) in the event that the Net Proceeds are insurance proceeds, less than fifty percent (50%) of the total floor area of the Improvements has been damaged or destroyed, or rendered unusable as a result of such fire or other casualty; or (2) in the event that the Net Proceeds are condemnation awards, less than fifty percent (50%) of the Land constituting the Property is taken, such Land that is taken is located along the perimeter or periphery of the Property and no portion of the Improvements is located in such Lands;
Lender shall be satisfied that any operating deficits, including all scheduled payments of principal and interest under the Note which will be incurred with respect to the Property as a result of the occurrence of any such fire or other casualty or taking, whichever the case may be, will be covered out of (1) the Net Proceeds, or (2) other funds of Borrower;
Lender shall be satisfied that, upon the completion of the Restoration and related lease-up, if applicable, the net cash flow of the Property will be restored to a level sufficient to cover all carrying costs and operating expenses of the Property, including, without limitation, debt service on the Note at a coverage ratio (on a "normalized" basis, i.e., after deducting replacement reserve requirements and reserves for tenant improvements and leasing commissions from net operating income, whether or not such sums are escrowed with Lender) of at least 1.27 : 1.0, which coverage ratio shall be equal to or greater than the coverage ratio existing as of the date of this Security Instrument or, if lower, the coverage ratio which existed as of the date immediately preceding such casualty or taking as the case may be;
the Restoration can reasonably be completed on or before the earliest to occur of (1) six (6) months prior to the Maturity Date (as defined in the Note), (2) the earliest date required for such completion under the terms of any Lease and (3) such time as may be required under applicable zoning law, ordinance, rule or regulation in order to repair and restore the Property to as nearly as possible the condition it was in immediately prior to such fire or other casualty or to such taking, as applicable;
the Property and the use thereof after the Restoration will be in compliance with, and permitted under, all applicable zoning laws, ordinances, rules and regulations (including, without limitation, all applicable Environmental Laws (defined in Section 12.1); and

such fire or other casualty or taking, as applicable, does not materially impair access to the Property or the Improvements.
The Net Proceeds shall be held by Lender and, until disbursed in accordance with the provisions of this Subsection 4.4(b), shall constitute additional security for the Obligations. The Net Proceeds other than the Net Proceeds paid under the Policy described in Subsection 3.3(a)(iv) shall be disbursed by Lender to, or as directed by, Borrower from time to time during the course of the Restoration, upon receipt of evidence satisfactory to Lender that (A) all materials installed and work and labor performed (except to the extent that they are to be paid for out of the requested disbursement) in connection with the Restoration have been paid for in full, and (B) there exist no notices of pendency, stop orders, mechanic's or materialman's liens or notices of intention to file same, or any other liens or encumbrances of any nature whatsoever on the Property arising out of the Restoration which have not either been fully bonded and discharged of record or in the alternative fully insured to the satisfaction of Lender by the title company insuring the lien of this Security Instrument.
Lender shall have the use of the plans and specifications and all permits, licenses and approvals required or obtained in connection with the Restoration. The identity of the contractors, subcontractors and materialmen engaged in the Restoration, as well as the contracts under which they have been engaged, shall be subject to prior review and acceptance by Lender and an independent consulting engineer selected by Lender (the "Casualty Consultant"), such acceptance not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed. All costs and expenses incurred by Lender in connection with making the Net Proceeds available for the Restoration including, without limitation, reasonable counsel fees and disbursements and the Casualty Consultant's fees, shall be paid by Borrower.
In no event shall Lender be obligated to make disbursements of the Net Proceeds in excess of an amount equal to the costs actually incurred from time to time for work in place as part of the Restoration, as certified by the Casualty Consultant, minus the Casualty Retainage. The term "Casualty Retainage" as used in this Subsection 4.4(b) shall mean an amount equal to 10% of the costs actually incurred for work in place as part of the Restoration, as certified by the Casualty Consultant, until such time as the Casualty Consultant certifies to Lender that 50% of the required Restoration has been completed. There shall be no Casualty Retainage with respect to costs actually incurred by Borrower for work in place in completing the last 50% of the required Restoration. The Casualty Retainage shall in no event, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth above in this Subsection 4.4(b), be less than the amount actually held back by Borrower from contractors, subcontractors and materialmen engaged in the Restoration. The Casualty Retainage shall not be released until the Casualty Consultant certifies to Lender that the Restoration has been completed in accordance with the provisions of this Subsection 4.4(b) and that all approvals necessary for the re-occupancy and use of the Property have been obtained from all appropriate governmental and quasi-governmental authorities, and Lender receives evidence satisfactory to Lender that the costs of the Restoration have been paid in full or will be paid in full out of the Casualty Retainage, provided, however, that Lender will release the portion of the Casualty Retainage being held with respect to any contractor, subcontractor or materialman engaged in the Restoration as of the date upon which the Casualty Consultant certifies to Lender that the contractor, subcontractor or materialman has satisfactorily completed all work and has supplied all materials in accordance with the provisions of the contractor's, subcontractor's or materialman's contract, and the contractor, subcontractor or materialman delivers the lien waivers and evidence of payment in full of all sums due to the contractor, subcontractor or materialman as may be reasonably requested by Lender or by the title company insuring the lien of this Security Instrument. If required by Lender, the release of any such portion of the Casualty Retainage shall be approved by the surety company, if any, which has issued a payment or performance bond with respect to the contractor, subcontractor or materialman.
21
Lender shall not be obligated to make disbursements of the Net Proceeds more frequently than once every calendar month.
If at any time the Net Proceeds or the undisbursed balance thereof shall not, in the opinion of Lender, be sufficient to pay in full the balance of the costs which are estimated by the Casualty Consultant to be incurred in connection with the completion of the Restoration, Borrower shall deposit the deficiency (the "Net Proceeds Deficiency") with Lender before any further disbursement of the Net Proceeds shall be made. The Net Proceeds Deficiency deposited with Lender shall be held by Lender and shall be disbursed for costs actually incurred in connection with the Restoration on the same conditions applicable to the disbursement of the Net Proceeds, and until so disbursed pursuant to this Subsection 4.4(b) shall constitute additional security for the Obligations.
The excess, if any, of the Net Proceeds and the remaining balance, if any, of the Net Proceeds Deficiency deposited with Lender after the Casualty Consultant certifies to Lender that the Restoration has been completed in accordance with the provisions of this Subsection 4.4(b), and the receipt by Lender of evidence satisfactory to Lender that all costs incurred in connection with the Restoration have been paid in full, shall be remitted by Lender to Borrower, provided no Event of Default shall have occurred and shall be continuing under the Note, this Security Instrument or any of the Other Security Documents.
- All Net Proceeds not required (i) to be made available for the Restoration or (ii) to be returned to Borrower as excess Net Proceeds pursuant to Subsection 4.4(b)(vi) shall be retained and applied by Lender toward the payment of the Debt whether or not then due and payable in such order, priority and proportions as Lender in its discretion shall deem proper or, at the discretion of Lender, the same shall be paid, either in whole or in part, to Borrower. If Lender shall receive and retain Net Proceeds, the lien of this Security Instrument shall be reduced only by the amount received and retained by Lender and actually applied by Lender in reduction of the Debt.
Section 4.5 Post-Closing Survey. Within sixty (60) days after the date hereof, Borrower shall deliver to Lender a new survey plat of the Land, Improvements and Easements (the "Survey"), such Survey to be inform and content acceptable to Lender and in accordance with the specifications set forth on Exhibit B attached hereto. If Borrower fails to timely deliver the survey, Lender, among its other rights and remedies, shall have the right to have a Survey prepared at Borrower's cost and expense. Lender is holding in escrow the sum of $7,500 of the Loan proceeds to be applied toward any expenses it incurs in obtaining the Survey if Borrower fails to timely deliver same. If Borrower timely deliver the Survey, such $7,500 sum shall be immediately released to Borrower.
