ARTICLE 2 DEBT AND OBLIGATIONS SECURED Section 2.1 Debt. This Security Instrument and the grants, assignments and transfers made in Article 1 are given for the purpose of securing the following, in such order of priority as Lender may determine in its sole discretion (the "Debt"): (a) the payment of the indebtedness evidenced by the Note in lawful money of the United States of America; (b) the payment of interest, default interest, late charges and other sums, as provided in the Note, this Security Instrument or the Other Security Documents (defined below); (c) the payment of the Prepayment Fee (as defined in the Note); (d) the payment of all other moneys agreed or provided to be paid by Borrower in the Note, this Security Instrument or the Other Security Documents (as defined herein); (e) the payment of all sums advanced pursuant to this Security Instrument to protect and preserve the Property and the lien and the security interest created hereby; and (f) the payment of all sums advanced and reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Lender in connection with the Debt or any part thereof, any renewal, extension, or change of or substitution for the Debt or any part thereof, or the acquisition or perfection of the security therefor, whether made or incurred at the request of Borrower or Lender. Section 2.2 Other Obligations. This Security Instrument and the grants, assignments and transfers made in Article 1 are also given for the purpose of securing the following (the "Other Obligations"): (a) the performance of all other obligations of Borrower contained herein; (b) the performance of each obligation of Borrower contained in any other agreement given by Borrower to Lender which is for the purpose of further securing the obligations secured hereby, and any amendments, modifications and changes thereto; and (c) the performance of each obligation of Borrower contained in any renewal, extension, amendment, modification, consolidation, change of, or substitution or replacement for, all or any part of the Note, this Security Instrument or the Other Security Documents. Section 2.3 Debt and Other Obligations. Borrower's obligations for the payment of the Debt and the performance of the Other Obligations shall be referred to collectively below as the "Obligations." Section 2.4 Payments. Unless payments are made in the required amount in immediately available funds at the place where the Note is payable, remittances in payment of all or any part of the Debt shall not, regardless of any receipt or credit issued therefor, constitute payment until the required amount is actually received by Lender in funds immediately available at the place where the Note is payable (or any other place as Lender, in Lender's sole discretion, may have established by delivery of written notice thereof to Borrower) and shall be made and accepted subject to the condition that any check or draft may be handled for collection in accordance with the practice of the collecting bank or banks. Acceptance by Lender of any payment in an amount less than the amount then due shall be deemed an acceptance on account only, and the failure to pay the entire amount then due shall be and continue to be an Event of Default (defined below). ARTICLE 3 BORROWER COVENANTS Borrower covenants and agrees that: Section 3.1 Payment of Debt. Borrower will pay the Debt at the time and in the manner provided in the Note and in this Security Instrument. Section 3.2 Incorporation by Reference. All the covenants, conditions and agreements contained in (a) the Note and (b) all and any of the documents other than the Note or this Security Instrument now or hereafter executed by Borrower and/or others and by or in favor of Lender, which wholly or partially secure or guaranty payment of the Note (the "Other Security Documents"), are hereby made a part of this Security Instrument to the same extent and with the same force as if fully set forth herein. Section 3.3 Insurance. (a) Borrower shall obtain and maintain, or cause to be maintained, insurance for Borrower and the Property providing at least the following coverages: (i) comprehensive all risk insurance on the Improvements and the Personal Property, including contingent liability from Operation of Building Laws, Demolition Costs and Increased Cost of Construction Endorsements, in each case (A) in an amount equal to 100% of the "Full Replacement Cost," which for purposes of this Security Instrument shall mean actual replacement value (exclusive of costs of excavations, foundations, underground utilities and footings) with a waiver of depreciation, but the amount shall in no event be less than the allocated loan amount for the Property as set forth in Exhibit A to the Note; (B) containing an agreed amount endorsement with respect to the Improvements and Personal Property waiving all co-insurance provisions; (C) providing for no deductible in excess of the lesser of $10,000.00 and one percent (1%) of the face value of such policy; and (D) containing an "Ordinance or Law Coverage" or "Enforcement" endorsement if any of the Improvements or the use of the Property shall at any time constitute legal non-conforming structures or uses. The Full Replacement Cost shall be redetermined from time to time (but not more frequently than once in any twenty-four (24) calendar months) at the request of Lender by an appraiser or contractor designated and paid by Borrower and approved by Lender, or by an engineer or appraiser in the regular employ of the insurer. After the first appraisal, additional appraisals may be based on construction cost indices customarily employed in the trade. No omission on the part of Lender to request any such ascertainment shall relieve Borrower of any of its obligations under this Subsection. In addition, Borrower shall obtain (y) flood hazard insurance if any portion of the Improvements is currently or at any time in the future located in a federally designated "special flood hazard area", such flood hazard insurance to be in an amount equal to the lesser of (a) the allocated loan amount for the Property as set forth on Exhibit A to the Note or (b) the maximum amount of such insurance available under the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968, the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973 or the National Flood Insurance Reform Act of 1994, as each may be amended; and (z) earthquake insurance in amounts and in form and substance satisfactory to Lender in the event the Property is located in an area with a high degree of seismic activity, provided that the insurance pursuant to clauses (y) and (z) hereof shall be on terms consistent with the comprehensive all risk insurance policy required under this Subsection 3.3(a)(i) except that the deductible on such insurance shall not be in excess of five percent (5%) of the allocated loan amount for the Property as set forth on Exhibit A to the Note; (ii) commercial general liability insurance against claims for personal injury, bodily injury, death or property damage occurring upon, in or about the Property, such insurance (A) to be on the so-called "occurrence" form with a combined single limit of not less than $1,000,000.00; (B) to continue at not less than the aforesaid limit until required to be changed by Lender in writing by reason of changed economic conditions making such protection inadequate as determined by Lender in the exercise of its reasonable discretion; and (C) to cover at least the following hazards: (1) premises and operations; (2) products and completed operations on an "if any" basis; (3) independent contractors; (4) blanket contractual liability for all written and oral contracts; and (5) contractual liability covering the indemnities contained in Article 13 hereof to the extent the same is available; (iii) business income insurance (A) with loss payable to Lender; (B) covering all risks required to be covered by the insurance provided for in Subsection 3.3(a)(i); (C) containing an extended period of indemnity endorsement which provides that after the physical loss to the Improvements and Personal Property has been repaired, the continued loss of income will be insured until such income either returns to the same level it was at prior to the loss, or the expiration of twenty-four (24) months from the date of the loss, whichever first occurs, and notwithstanding that the policy may expire prior to the end of such period; and (D) in an amount equal to 100% of the projected gross income from the Property for a period of twelve (12) months. The amount of such business income insurance shall be determined prior to the date hereof and at least once each year thereafter based on Borrower's reasonable estimate of the gross income from the Property for the succeeding twenty-four (24) month period. All insurance proceeds payable to Lender pursuant to this Subsection 3.3(a)(iii) shall be held by Lender and shall be applied to the obligations secured hereunder from time to time due and payable hereunder and under the Note; provided, however, that nothing herein contained shall be deemed to relieve Borrower of its obligations to pay the obligations secured hereunder on the respective dates of payment provided for in the Note except to the extent such amounts are actually paid out of the proceeds of such business income insurance; (iv) at all times during which structural construction, repairs or alterations are being made with respect to the Improvements (A) owner's contingent or protective liability insurance covering claims not covered by or under the terms or provisions of the above mentioned commercial general liability insurance policy; and (B) the insurance provided for in Subsection 3.3(a)(i) shall be written in a so-called builder's risk completed value form (1) on a non-reporting basis, (2) against all risks insured against pursuant to Subsection 3.3(a)(i), (3) including permission to occupy the Property, and (4) with an agreed amount endorsement waiving co-insurance provisions; (v) workers' compensation, subject to the statutory limits of the state in which the Property is located, and employer's liability insurance with a limit of at least $1,000,000.00 per accident and per disease per employee, and $1,000,000.00 for disease aggregate in respect of any work or operations on or about the Property, or in connection with the Property or its operation (if applicable); (vi) comprehensive boiler and machinery insurance, if applicable, in amounts as shall be reasonably required by Lender on terms consistent with the comprehensive all risk insurance policy required under Subsection 3.3(a)(i); (vii) umbrella liability insurance in an amount not less than $50,000,000.00 per occurrence on terms consistent with the commercial general liability insurance policy required under Subsection 3.3(a)(ii); (viii) motor vehicle liability coverage for all owned and non-owned vehicles, including rented and leased vehicles containing minimum limits per occurrence of $1,000,000.00; and (ix) such other insurance and in such amounts as Lender from time to time may reasonably request against such other insurable hazards which at the time are commonly insured against for property similar to the Property located in or around the region in which the Property is located. (b) 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 subject to the reasonable approval of Lender as to insurance companies, amounts, forms, deductibles, loss payees and insureds. The Policies shall be issued by financially sound and responsible insurance companies authorized to do business in the state in which the Property is located and approved by Lender in the exercise of its reasonable discretion. The insurance companies must have a rating of "Aa1" or better for claims paying ability assigned by Moody's Investors Service, Inc. and a rating from A.M. Best's of at least A:XV, and in the event such insurance companies are rated by Fitch Investors Service, Inc. and Duff & Phelps Credit Rating Company, and if there are any Securities (defined in Section 19.1 below) issued which have been assigned a rating by a credit rating agency approved by Lender (a "Rating Agency"), the insurance company shall have a claims paying ability rating by such Rating Agency equal to or greater than the rating of the highest class of the Securities (each such insurer shall be referred to below as a "Qualified Insurer"). The Policies described in Subsections 3.3(a)(i), (iii), (iv)(B) and (vi) shall designate Lender as loss payee. Not less than thirty (30) days prior to the expiration dates of the Policies theretofore furnished to Lender pursuant to Subsection 3.3(a), certified copies of the Policies marked "premium paid" or accompanied by evidence satisfactory to Lender of payment of the premiums due thereunder (the "Insurance Premiums") shall be delivered by Borrower to Lender; provided, however, that in the case of renewal Policies, Borrower may furnish Lender with binders therefor to be followed by the original Policies when issued. (c) Borrower shall not obtain (i) any umbrella or blanket liability or casualty Policy unless, in each case, such Policy is approved in advance in writing by Lender and Lender's interest is included therein as provided in this Security Instrument and such Policy is issued by a Qualified Insurer, or (ii) separate insurance concurrent in form or contributing in the event of loss with that required in Subsection 3.3(a) to be furnished by, or which may be reasonably required to be furnished by, Borrower. In the event Borrower obtains separate insurance or an umbrella or a blanket Policy, Borrower shall notify Lender of the same and shall cause certified copies of each Policy to be delivered as required in Subsection 3.3(a). Any blanket insurance Policy shall specifically allocate to the Property the amount of coverage from time to time required hereunder and shall otherwise provide the same protection as would a separate Policy insuring only the Property in compliance with the provisions of Subsection 3.3(a). (d) All Policies of insurance provided for or contemplated by Subsection 3.3(a), except for the Policy referenced in Subsection (a)(v), shall name Lender and Borrower as the insured or additional insured, as their respective interests may appear, and in the case of property damage, boiler and machinery, flood and earthquake insurance, shall contain a so-called New York standard non-contributing mortgagee clause in favor of Lender providing that the loss thereunder shall be payable to Lender. (e) All Policies of insurance provided for in Subsection 3.3(a) shall contain clauses or endorsements to the effect that: (i) no act or negligence of Borrower, or anyone acting for Borrower, or of any tenant under any Lease or other occupant, or failure to comply with the provisions of any Policy which might otherwise result in a forfeiture of the insurance or any part thereof, shall in any way affect the validity or enforceability of the insurance insofar as Lender is concerned; (ii) the Policy shall not be materially changed (other than to increase the coverage provided thereby) or cancelled without at least 30 days' written notice to Lender and any other party named therein as an insured; and (iii) each Policy shall provide that the issuers thereof shall give written notice to Lender if the Policy has not been renewed thirty (30) days prior to its expiration; and (iv) Lender shall not be liable for any Insurance Premiums thereon or subject to any assessments thereunder. (f) Borrower shall furnish to Lender, on or before thirty (30) days after the close of each of Borrower's fiscal years, a statement certified by Borrower or a duly authorized officer of Borrower of the amounts of insurance maintained in compliance herewith, of the risks covered by such insurance and of the insurance company or companies which carry such insurance and, if requested by Lender, verification of the adequacy of such insurance by an independent insurance broker or appraiser acceptable to Lender. (g) If at any time Lender is not in receipt of written evidence that all insurance required hereunder is in full force and effect, Lender shall have the right, without notice to Borrower, to take such action as Lender deems necessary to protect its interest in the Property, including, without limitation, the obtaining of such insurance coverage as Lender in its sole discretion deems appropriate, and all expenses incurred by Lender in connection with such action or in obtaining such insurance and keeping it in effect shall be paid by Borrower to Lender upon demand and until paid shall be secured by this Security Instrument and shall bear interest in accordance with Section 10.3 hereof. (h) 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 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. Borrower shall pay all costs of such Restoration whether or not such costs are covered by insurance. Lender may, but shall not be obligated to make proof of loss if not made promptly by Borrower. (i) 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 Debt, all right, title and interest of Borrower in and to such policies then in force concerning the Property and all proceeds payable thereunder shall thereupon vest in the purchaser at such foreclosure or Lender or other transferee in the event of such other transfer of title. Section 3.4 Payment of Taxes, etc. Borrower shall promptly pay 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 (the "Other Charges"), and all charges for utility services provided to the Property as same become due and payable. 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 and/or the Lockbox Agreement, 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. If any Taxes or Other Charges are not paid as herein provided or pursuant to the Lockbox Agreement, Lender shall have the right to pay the same, together with any penalty and interest thereon, and the amount or amounts so paid or advanced shall forthwith be payable by Borrower to Lender and shall be secured by the lien of this Security Instrument; provided, however, that Borrower may in good faith contest, at Borrower's own cost and expenses, by proper legal proceedings, the validity or amount of any Taxes or Other Charges, on the condition that Borrower first shall, unless the contested amount is paid in full when due despite such contest, deposit with Lender, as security for the payment of such contested item, an amount equal to the contested item plus all penalties and interest which would be payable if Borrower is ultimately required to pay such contested item, and on the further condition that no amount so contested may remain unpaid for such length of time as shall permit the Property, or the lien thereon created by the item being contested, to be sold for the nonpayment thereof, or as shall permit an action, either of foreclosure or otherwise, to be commenced by the holder of any such lien, or as shall permit the Property to be otherwise in danger of sale, forfeiture or loss by reason of such proceedings. Borrower will not claim any credit on, or make any deduction from the Debt by reason of the payment of any Taxes or Other Charges. Section 3.5 Escrow Fund. In addition to the initial deposits with respect to Taxes, Premiums and Other Charges made by Borrower to Lender on the date hereof in accordance with the Lockbox Agreement, Borrower shall pay to Lender on the first day of each calendar month (a) one-twelfth of an amount which would be sufficient to pay the Taxes payable, or estimated by Lender to be payable, during the next ensuing twelve (12) months, (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 and (c) one-twelfth of an amount which would be sufficient to pay the Other Charges payable, or estimating by Lender to be payable, during the next ensuing twelve (12) months (the amounts in (a), (b) and (c) 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, Insurance Premiums and Other Charges 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 taxing authority or other appropriate party. 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. Lender will apply the Escrow Fund to payments of Taxes, Insurance Premiums and Other Charges 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, Insurance Premiums and Other Charges 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 clauses (a), (b) and (c) of this Section 3.5 above, Borrower shall promptly pay to Lender, upon demand, an amount which Lender shall 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. No earnings on interest on the Escrow Fund shall be payable to Borrower. The Escrow Fund shall be established pursuant to the terms and provisions of the Lockbox Agreement. In the event of any inconsistency between the terms and provisions of this Section 3.5 and the terms and provisions of the Lockbox Agreement, the terms and provisions of the Lockbox Agreement shall control. 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, and Borrower shall from time to time 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. 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 reasonable 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 a condemning authority, Borrower shall promptly commence and diligently prosecute the Restoration of the Property and otherwise comply with the provisions of 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. Section 3.7 Leases and Rents. (a) Except as otherwise consented to by Lender, all Leases shall be written on the standard form of lease which shall have been approved by Lender (the "Standard Lease Form"). Upon request, Borrower shall furnish Lender with executed copies of all Leases. No material changes may be made to the Standard Lease Form without the prior written consent of Lender. In addition, all renewals of Leases and all proposed leases shall provide for rental rates and terms comparable to existing local market rates and terms and shall be arms-length transactions with bona fide, independent third party tenants. All proposed leases and renewals of existing Leases shall be subject to the prior approval of Lender and its counsel, at Borrower's expense. All Leases shall provide that they are subordinate to this Security Instrument and that the lessee agrees to attorn to Lender, provided that, upon request of any proposed tenant in connection with any proposed Lease in excess of 5,000 rentable square feet, Lender will agree not to disturb the tenant's possession of the premises demised thereunder for so long as the tenant is not in default under the Lease beyond the expiration of any applicable notice or grace period pursuant, and subject, to the terms and provisions of a subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreement in Lender's customary form (or in the form provided in the Lease or by Tenant, if reasonably acceptable to Lender) (an "SNDA") in respect of such Lease. Borrower (i) shall observe and perform all the obligations imposed upon the lessor under the Leases and shall not do or permit to be done anything to impair the value of the Leases as security for the Debt; (ii) shall promptly send copies to Lender of all notices of default which Borrower shall send or receive thereunder; (iii) shall enforce all of the terms, covenants and conditions contained in the Leases upon the part of the lessee thereunder to be observed or performed, short of termination thereof; Borrower may terminate, however, Minor Leases as the result of a default by lessee thereunder; (iv) shall not collect any of the Rents more than one (1) month in advance; (v) shall not execute any other assignment of the lessor's interest in the Leases or the Rents; (vi) except as expressly permitted herein, shall not alter, modify or change the terms of the Leases without the prior written consent of Lender, or cancel or terminate the Leases or accept a surrender thereof or convey or transfer or suffer or permit a conveyance or transfer of the Land or of any interest therein so as to effect a merger of the estates and rights of, or a termination or diminution of the obligations of, lessees thereunder; (vii) shall not alter, modify or change the terms of any guaranty, letter of credit or other credit support with respect to the Leases (the "Lease Guaranty") or cancel or terminate such Lease Guaranty without the prior written consent of Lender; and (viii) shall not consent to any assignment of or subletting under the Leases not in accordance with their terms, without the prior written consent of Lender. (b) Notwithstanding the provisions of Subsection (a) above, renewals of existing commercial Leases and proposed leases for commercial space shall not be subject to the prior approval of Lender provided all of the following conditions are satisfied: (i) the renewal Lease or series of leases or proposed lease or series of leases covers less than 5,000 rentable square feet, in the aggregate (any such lease or series of leases demising less than 5,000 rentable square feet of the Property being hereinafter referred to as a "Minor Lease"), (ii) the renewal Lease or series of leases or proposed lease or series of leases shall be written on the standard form of Lease which shall have been approved by Lender, (iii) no rent credits, free rents or concessions have been granted under the renewal Lease or proposed lease which are inconsistent with customary leasing practices in the local market in which the Property is located, (iv) the renewal Lease or proposed lease shall provide for rental rates and terms comparable to existing local market rates and terms, (v) the renewal Lease or proposed lease shall be an arms-length transaction with a bona fide, independent third party tenant, and (vi) the renewal Lease or proposed lease shall satisfy such additional criteria as shall be reasonably required by Lender in its sole discretion and of which Borrower has been notified by Lender. Borrower shall deliver to Lender copies of all Leases which are entered into pursuant to the preceding sentence together with Borrower's certification that it has satisfied all of the conditions of the preceding sentence within thirty (30) days after the execution of the Lease. (c) To the extent permitted by law, Borrower shall promptly deposit with Lender any and all monies representing security deposits under the Leases, whether or not Borrower actually received such monies (the "Security Deposits"). Lender shall hold the Security Deposits in accordance with the terms of the respective Lease, and shall only release the Security Deposits in order to return a tenant's Security Deposit to such tenant if such tenant is entitled to the return of the Security Deposit under the terms of the Lease and is not otherwise in default under the Lease. To the extent required by Applicable Laws (defined below), Lender shall hold the Security Deposits in an interest-bearing account selected by Lender in its sole discretion (it being understood that (i) Lender or Servicer shall have no obligation to maximize the return or yield on any sums so invested, and (ii) any such interest shall constitute additional security for the Obligations). In the event Lender is not permitted by law to hold the Security Deposits, Borrower shall deposit the Security Deposits into an account with a federally insured institution as approved by Lender. Section 3.8 Maintenance of Property. Borrower shall cause the Property to be maintained in a good and safe condition and repair, reasonable wear and tear excepted. The Improvements and the Personal Property shall not be removed, demolished or materially altered (except for normal replacement of the Personal Property) without the consent of Lender. Borrower shall promptly repair, replace or rebuild any part of the Property which may be destroyed by any casualty, or become damaged, worn or dilapidated or which may be affected by any proceeding of the character referred to in Section 3.6 hereof and shall complete and pay for any structure at any time in the process of construction or repair on the Land. 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 to be discontinued or abandoned without the express written consent of Lender. Section 3.9 Waste. Borrower shall not commit or suffer any waste of the Property or make any change in the use of the Property which will in any way materially increase the risk of fire or other hazard arising out of the operation of the Property, or take any action that might invalidate or give cause for cancellation of any Policy, or do or permit to be done thereon anything that may in any way impair the value of the Property or the security of this Security Instrument. Borrower will not, without the prior written consent of Lender, permit any drilling or exploration for or extraction, removal, or production of any minerals from the surface or the subsurface of the Land, regardless of the depth thereof or the method of mining or extraction thereof. Section 3.10 Compliance With Laws. (a) Borrower shall promptly comply with all existing and future federal, state and local laws, orders, ordinances, governmental rules and regulations or court orders affecting the Property, or the use thereof including, but not limited to, the Americans with Disabilities Act ("ADA") (collectively, the "Applicable Laws"). (b) Borrower shall from time to time, upon Lender's request, provide Lender with evidence satisfactory to Lender that the Property complies with all Applicable Laws or is exempt from compliance with Applicable Laws. (c) Notwithstanding any provisions set forth herein or in any document regarding Lender's approval of alterations of the Property, Borrower shall not alter the Property in any manner which would increase Borrower's responsibilities for compliance with Applicable Laws without the prior written approval of Lender. Lender's approval of the plans, specifications, or working drawings for alterations of the Property shall create no responsibility or liability on behalf of Lender for their completeness, design, sufficiency or their compliance with Applicable Laws. The foregoing shall apply to tenant improvements constructed by Borrower or by any of its tenants. Lender may condition any such approval upon receipt of a certificate of compliance with Applicable Laws from an independent architect, engineer, or other person acceptable to Lender. (d) Borrower shall give prompt notice to Lender of the receipt by Borrower of any notice related to a violation of any Applicable Laws and of the commencement of any proceedings or investigations which relate to compliance with Applicable Laws. (e) Borrower will take appropriate measures to prevent and will not engage in or knowingly permit any illegal activities at the Property. Section 3.11 Books and Records. (a) Borrower and any Guarantors (as defined in Subsection 10.1 (e) and Indemnitors (as defined in Subsection 10.1 (k)), if any, shall keep adequate books and records of account in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, consistently applied ("GAAP"), or in accordance with other methods acceptable to Lender in its sole discretion, consistently applied and furnish to Lender: (i) monthly operating statements of the Property together with a property balance sheet for such month, prepared and certified by Borrower in the form required by Lender, detailing the revenues received, the expenses incurred and the net operating income before and after debt service (principal and interest) and major capital improvements for that month and containing appropriate year to date information, and containing a comparison for such quarter with the annual budget delivered pursuant to Subsection 3.11(a)(v), within thirty (30) days after the end of such month; (ii) monthly certified rent rolls signed and dated by Borrower, detailing the names of all tenants of the Improvements, the portion of Improvements occupied by each tenant, the base rent and any other charges payable under each Lease and the term of each Lease, including the expiration date, and any other information as is reasonably required by Lender, within thirty (30) days after the end of such month; (iii) an annual operating statement of the Property detailing the total revenues received, total expenses incurred, total cost of all capital improvements, total debt service and total cash flow, and containing a comparison for such period with the annual budget delivered pursuant to Subsection 3.11(a)(v), to be prepared and certified by Borrower in the form required by Lender, or if required by Lender, an audited annual operating statement prepared and certified by an independent certified public accountant acceptable to Lender, within ninety (90) days after the close of each fiscal year of Borrower; (iv) an annual balance sheet and profit and loss statement of Borrower, any Guarantors and any Indemnitors in the form required by Lender, prepared and certified by the respective Borrower, Guarantors and/or Indemnitors, or if required by Lender, audited financial statements prepared by an independent certified public accountant acceptable to Lender, within ninety (90) days after the close of each fiscal year of Borrower, Guarantors and Indemnitors, as the case may be; (v) an annual operating budget presented on a monthly basis consistent with the quarterly and annual operating statements described above for the Property, including cash flow projections for the upcoming year, and all proposed capital replacements and improvements at least fifteen (15) days prior to the start of each calendar year; and (vi) copies of Borrower's federal income tax returns within fifteen (15) days of the date such returns are filed.

(c) Borrower, its affiliates, any Guarantor and any Indemnitor shall furnish Lender with such other additional financial or management information as may, from time to time, be reasonably required by Lender in form and substance satisfactory to Lender. (d) Borrower, its affiliates, any Guarantor and any Indemnitor shall furnish to Lender and its agents convenient facilities for the examination and audit of any such books and records. Within a reasonable time after request by Lender, Borrower, its affiliates, any Guarantor and any Indemnitor shall provide any other information with respect to the Property and the financial condition of Borrower, its affiliates, any Guarantor and any Indemnitor as Lender may from time to time request. Section 3.12 Payment for Labor and Materials. Borrower will promptly pay when due all bills and costs for labor, materials, and specifically fabricated materials incurred in connection with the Property and never permit to exist beyond the due date thereof in respect of the Property or any part thereof any lien or security interest, even though inferior to the liens and the security interests hereof, and in any event never permit to be created or exist in respect of the Property or any part thereof any other or additional lien or security interest other than the liens or security interests hereof, except for the Permitted Exceptions (defined below). Section 3.13 Management Agreements. (a) If the Improvements are operated under the terms and conditions of that certain management agreement dated April 1, 1998 between Wellsford Capital (predecessor-in-interest to Borrower), as owner, and Trammel Crow Operations, Inc. (the "Manager"), the owner's interest in which was assigned to Borrower by that certain instrument of assignment dated as of the date hereof (hereinafter, together with any renewals or replacements thereof, being referred to as the "Management Agreement"), which Management Agreement has been approved by Lender, Borrower shall (i) diligently perform and observe all of the terms, covenants and conditions of the Management Agreement on the part of Borrower to be performed and observed to the end that all things shall be done which are necessary to keep unimpaired the rights of Borrower under the Management Agreement and (ii) promptly notify Lender of the giving of any notice to Borrower of any default by Borrower in the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of the Management Agreement on the part of Borrower to be performed and observed and deliver to Lender a true copy of each such notice. Borrower shall not surrender the Management Agreement, consent to the assignment by the Manager of its interest under the Management Agreement (to the extent such consent is required by the Management Agreement), or terminate or cancel the Management Agreement or modify, change, supplement, alter or amend the Management Agreement, in any respect, either orally or in writing, and Borrower hereby assigns to Lender as further security for the payment of the Debt and for the performance and observance of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Security Instrument, all the rights, privileges and prerogatives of Borrower to surrender the Management Agreement or to terminate, cancel, modify, change, supplement, alter or amend the Management Agreement in any respect, and any such surrender of the Management Agreement or termination, cancellation, modification, change, supplement, alteration or amendment of the Management Agreement without the prior consent of Lender shall be void and of no force and effect. If Borrower shall default in the performance or observance of any material term, covenant or condition of the Management Agreement on the part of Borrower to be performed or observed, then, without limiting the generality of the other provisions of this Security Instrument, and without waiving or releasing Borrower from any of its obligations hereunder, Lender shall have the right, but shall be under no obligation, to pay any sums and to perform any act or take any action as may be appropriate to cause all the terms, covenants and conditions of the Management Agreement on the part of Borrower to be performed or observed to be promptly performed or observed on behalf of Borrower, to the end that the rights of Borrower in, to and under the Management Agreement shall be kept unimpaired and free from default. Lender and any person designated by Lender shall have, and are hereby granted, the right to enter upon the Property at any time and from time to time for the purpose of taking any such action. If the Manager under the Management Agreement shall deliver to Lender a copy of any notice sent to Borrower of default under the Management Agreement, such notice shall constitute full protection to Lender for any action taken or omitted to be taken by Lender in good faith, in reliance thereon. Borrower shall, from time to time, use its best efforts to obtain from the Manager under the Management Agreement such certificates of estoppel with respect to compliance by Borrower with the terms of the Management Agreement as may be requested by Lender.

(v) Lender shall not be obligated to make disbursements of the Net Proceeds more frequently than once every calendar month. (vi) 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. (vii) 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. (c) 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)(vii) may 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 may be paid, either in whole or in part, to Borrower for such purposes as Lender shall designate, in its discretion. If Lender shall receive and retain Net Proceeds, the lien of this Security Instrument shall be reduced only by the amount thereof received and retained by Lender and actually applied by Lender in reduction of the Debt Section 4.5 Lockbox Account.

ARTICLE 6 OBLIGATIONS AND RELIANCES Section 6.1 Relationship of Borrower and Lender. The relationship between Borrower and Lender is solely that of debtor and creditor, and Lender has no fiduciary or other special relationship with Borrower, and no term or condition of any of the Note, this Security Instrument and the Other Security Documents shall be construed so as to deem the relationship between Borrower and Lender to be other than that of debtor and creditor. Section 6.2 No Reliance on Lender. The general partners, principals and (if Borrower is a trust) beneficial owners of Borrower are experienced in the ownership and operation of properties similar to the Property, and Borrower and Lender are relying solely upon such expertise and business plan in connection with the ownership and operation of the Property.

Section 6.4 Reliance. Borrower recognizes and acknowledges that in accepting the Note, this Security Instrument and the Other Security Documents, Lender is expressly and primarily relying on the truth and accuracy of the warranties and representations set forth in Article 5 without any obligation to investigate the Property and notwithstanding any investigation of the Property by Lender; that such reliance existed on the part of Lender prior to the date hereof; that the warranties and representations are a material inducement to Lender in accepting the Note, this Security Instrument and the Other Security Documents; and that Lender would not be willing to make the loan evidenced by the Note, this Security Instrument and the Other Security Documents and accept this Security Instrument in the absence of the warranties and representations as set forth in Article 5. ARTICLE 7 FURTHER ASSURANCES Section 7.1 Recording of Security Instrument, etc. Borrower forthwith upon the execution and delivery of this Security Instrument and thereafter, from time to time, will cause this Security Instrument and any of the Other Security Documents creating a lien or security interest or evidencing the lien hereof upon the Property and each instrument of further assurance to be filed, registered or recorded in such manner and in such places as may be required by any present or future law in order to publish notice of and fully to protect and perfect the lien or security interest hereof upon, and the interest of Lender in, the Property. Borrower will pay all taxes, filing, registration or recording fees, and all expenses incident to the preparation, execution, acknowledgment and/or recording of the Note, this Security Instrument, the Other Security Documents, any note or mortgage supplemental hereto, any security instrument with respect to the Property and any instrument of further assurance, and any modification or amendment of the foregoing documents, and all federal, state, county and municipal taxes, duties, imposts, assessments and charges arising out of or in connection with the execution and delivery of this Security Instrument, any mortgage supplemental hereto, any security instrument with respect to the Property or any instrument of further assurance, and any modification or amendment of the foregoing documents, except where prohibited by law so to do. Section 7.2 Further Acts, etc. Borrower will, at the cost of Borrower, and without expense to Lender, do, execute, acknowledge and deliver all and every such further acts, deeds, conveyances, mortgages, assignments, notices of assignments, transfers and assurances as Lender shall, from time to time, require, for the better assuring, conveying, assigning, transferring, and confirming unto Lender the property and rights hereby mortgaged, granted, bargained, sold, conveyed, confirmed, pledged, assigned, warranted and transferred or intended now or hereafter so to be, or which Borrower may be or may hereafter become bound to convey or assign to Lender, or for carrying out the intention or facilitating the performance of the terms of this Security Instrument or for filing, registering or recording this Security Instrument, or for complying with all Applicable Laws. Borrower, on demand, will execute and deliver and hereby authorizes Lender to execute in the name of Borrower upon Borrower's failure to comply with Lender's demand for a period in excess of fifteen (15) days, or without the signature of Borrower to the extent Lender may lawfully do so, one or more financing statements, chattel mortgages or other instruments, to evidence more effectively the security interest of Lender in the Property. Borrower grants to Lender an irrevocable power of attorney coupled with an interest for the purpose of exercising and perfecting any and all rights and remedies available to Lender at law and in equity, including without limitation such rights and remedies available to Lender pursuant to this Section 7.2. Section 7.3 Changes in Tax, Debt, Credit and Documentary Stamp Laws. (a) If any law is enacted or adopted or amended after the date of this Security Instrument which deducts the Debt from the value of the Property for the purpose of taxation or which imposes a tax, either directly or indirectly, on the Debt or Lender's interest in the Property, Borrower will pay the tax, with interest and penalties thereon, if any. If Lender is advised by counsel chosen by it that the payment of tax by Borrower would be unlawful or taxable to Lender or unenforceable or provide the basis for a defense of usury, then Lender shall have the option by written notice of not less than ninety (90) days to declare the Debt immediately due and payable. (b) Borrower will not claim or demand or be entitled to any credit or credits on account of the Debt for any part of the Taxes or Other Charges assessed against the Property, or any part thereof, and no deduction shall otherwise be made or claimed from the assessed value of the Property, or any part thereof, for real estate tax purposes by reason of this Security Instrument or the Debt. If such claim, credit or deduction shall be required by law, Lender shall have the option, by written notice of not less than ninety (90) days, to declare the Debt immediately due and payable. (c) If at any time the United States of America, any state thereof or any subdivision of any such state shall require revenue or other stamps to be affixed to the Note, this Security Instrument, or any of the Other Security Documents or impose any other tax or charge on the same, Borrower will pay for the same, with interest and penalties thereon, if any. Section 7.4 Estoppel Certificates. (a) After request by Lender, Borrower, within ten (10) days, shall furnish Lender or any proposed assignee with a statement, duly acknowledged and certified, setting forth (i) the amount of the original principal amount of the Note, (ii) the unpaid principal amount of the Note, (iii) the rate of interest of the Note, (iv) the terms of payment and maturity date of the Note, (v) the date installments of interest and/or principal were last paid, (v) that, except as provided in such statement, there are no defaults or events which with the passage of time or the giving of notice or both, would constitute an event of default under the Note or the Security Instrument, (vi) that the Note and this Security Instrument are valid, legal and binding obligations and have not been modified or if modified, giving particulars of such modification, (vii) whether any offsets or defenses exist against the obligations secured hereby and, if any are alleged to exist, a detailed description thereof, (viii) that all Leases are in full force and effect and (provided the Property is not a residential multifamily property) have not been modified (or if modified, setting forth all modifications), (ix) the date to which the Rents thereunder have been paid pursuant to the Leases, (x) whether or not, to the best knowledge of Borrower, any of the lessees under the Leases are in default under the Leases, and, if any of the lessees are in default, setting forth the specific nature of all such defaults, (xi) the amount of security deposits held by Borrower under each Lease and that such amounts are consistent with the amounts required under each Lease, and (xii) as to any other matters reasonably requested by Lender and reasonably related to the Leases, the obligations secured hereby, the Property or this Security Instrument. (b) To the extent required of lessees under any Leases, Borrower shall deliver to Lender, and, otherwise, Borrower shall use commercially reasonable efforts to deliver to Lender, promptly upon request, duly executed estoppel certificates from any one or more lessees as required by Lender attesting to such facts regarding the Lease as Lender may require, including but not limited to attestations that the Lease is in full force and effect with no defaults thereunder on the part of any party, that none of the Rents have been paid more than one month in advance, and that the lessee claims no defense or offset against the full and timely performance of its obligations under the Lease, provided, however, that Borrower shall be deemed to have satisfied its obligations pursuant to the terms of this subparagraph (b) if it obtains from the lessee under the Lease an estoppel certificate in the form required by the Lease. To the extent any lessee shall refuse or fail to so deliver an estoppel certificate as aforesaid, Borrower shall deliver to Lender the required estoppel certificate which shall further provide an explanation as to why the lessee failed or refused to deliver the estoppel certificate. (c) Upon any transfer or proposed transfer contemplated by Section 19.1 hereof, at Lender's request, Borrower, any Guarantors and any Indemnitors shall provide an estoppel certificate to the Investor (defined in Section 19.1) or any prospective Investor in such form, substance and detail as Lender, such Investor or prospective Investor may reasonably require. Section 7.5 Splitting of Security Instrument. This Security Instrument and the Note shall, at any time until the same shall be fully paid and satisfied, at the sole election of Lender, and at Lender's cost and expense, be split or divided into two or more notes and two or more security instruments, each of which shall cover all or a portion of the Property to be more particularly described therein. To that end, Borrower, upon written request of Lender, shall execute, acknowledge and deliver, or cause to be executed, acknowledged and delivered by the then owner of the Property, to Lender and/or its designee or designees substitute notes and security instruments in such principal amounts, aggregating not more than the then unpaid principal amount of this Security Instrument, and containing terms, provisions and clauses similar to those contained herein and in the Note, and such other documents and instruments as may be reasonably required by Lender, provided that none of the foregoing instruments shall alter the monetary terms contained in the Note, this Security Instrument or the Other Security Documents or increase the obligations or decrease the rights of Borrower, Guarantor or any Indemnitor in respect of the loan secured hereby. In such event, in any instance where the consent of Lender is required under this Security Instrument, Borrower shall be required to obtain only the consent of the holder of the security instrument having the highest lien priority; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not limit Borrower's obligation to obtain the written agreement of the holder of each and every such security instrument to the extent any waiver of rights of any of the holder(s) thereof is requested by Borrower, or in the case of any modification or amendment to any such security instrument. Section 7.6 Replacement Documents. Upon receipt of an affidavit of an officer of Lender as to the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of the Note or any Other Security Document which is not of public record, and, in the case of any such mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of such Note or Other Security Document, Borrower will issue, in lieu thereof, a replacement Note or Other Security Document, dated the date of such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note or Other Security Document in the same principal amount thereof and otherwise of like tenor. ARTICLE 8 DUE ON SALE/ENCUMBRANCE Section 8.1 Lender Reliance. Borrower acknowledges that Lender has examined and relied on the experience of Borrower and its general partners, members, principals and (if Borrower is a trust) beneficial owners in owning and operating properties such as the Property in agreeing to make the loan secured hereby, and will continue to rely on Borrower's ownership of the Property as a means of maintaining the value of the Property as security for repayment of the Debt and the performance of the Other Obligations. Borrower acknowledges that Lender has a valid interest in maintaining the value of the Property so as to ensure that, should Borrower default in the repayment of the Debt or the performance of the Other Obligations, Lender can recover the Debt by a sale of the Property. Section 8.2 No Sale/Encumbrance. Borrower agrees that Borrower shall not, without the prior written consent of Lender, sell, convey, mortgage, grant, bargain, encumber, pledge, assign, or otherwise transfer the Property or any part thereof or permit the Property or any part thereof to be sold, conveyed, mortgaged, granted, bargained, encumbered, pledged, assigned, or otherwise transferred. Section 8.3 Sale/Encumbrance Defined. A sale, conveyance, mortgage, grant, bargain, encumbrance, pledge, assignment, or transfer within the meaning of this Article 8 shall be deemed to include, but not be limited to, (a) an installment sales agreement wherein Borrower agrees to sell the Property or any part thereof for a price to be paid in installments; (b) an agreement by Borrower leasing all or a substantial part of the Property for other than actual occupancy by a space tenant thereunder or a sale, assignment or other transfer of, or the grant of a security interest in, Borrower's right, title and interest in and to any Leases or any Rents; (c) if Borrower, any Guarantor, any Indemnitor, or any general partner, member or principal shareholder of Borrower, Guarantor or Indemnitor is a corporation, the voluntary or involuntary sale, conveyance, transfer or pledge of such corporation's stock (or the stock of any corporation directly or indirectly controlling such corporation by operation of law or otherwise) or the creation or issuance of new stock by which an aggregate of more than 10% of such corporation's stock shall be vested in a party or parties who are not now stockholders; and (d) if Borrower, any Guarantor or Indemnitor or any partner or member of Borrower, any Guarantor or Indemnitor is a limited or general partnership, limited liability company or joint venture, the change, removal or resignation of a general partner or managing partner or managing member, or the transfer or pledge of the partnership or membership interest of any partner or member or any profits or proceeds relating to such partnership or membership interest.

("WRP") shall not require Lender's consent, nor shall Lender's consent be required to any merger, consolidation or other combination of WRP or the direct or indirect sale, lease, exchange, or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of WRP in one transaction or in a series of related transactions, and (iii) transfers of ownership interests in Wellsford Capital shall not require Lender's consent so long as Wellsford Real Properties, Inc. continues to own a majority interest and maintain management control over Wellsford Capital. Section 8.4 Lender's Rights. Lender reserves the right to condition the consent required hereunder upon a modification of the terms hereof and on assumption of the Note, this Security Instrument and the Other Security Documents as so modified by the proposed transferee, payment of a transfer fee of not less than one percent (1%) of the principal balance of the Note and all of Lender's expenses incurred in connection with such transfer, the approval by a Rating Agency of the proposed transferee, the proposed transferee's continued compliance with the covenants set forth in Sections 4.2 and 4.3 hereof, or such other conditions as Lender shall determine in its sole discretion to be in the interest of Lender. Lender shall not be required to demonstrate any actual impairment of its security or any increased risk of default hereunder in order to declare the Debt immediately due and payable upon Borrower's sale, conveyance, mortgage, grant, bargain, encumbrance, pledge, assignment, or transfer of the Property without Lender's consent in such cases where such consent is required. This provision shall apply to every sale, conveyance, mortgage, grant, bargain, encumbrance, pledge, assignment, or transfer of the Property regardless of whether voluntary or not, or whether or not Lender has consented to any previous sale, conveyance, mortgage, grant, bargain, encumbrance, pledge, assignment, or transfer of the Property. ARTICLE 9 PREPAYMENT Section 9.1 Prepayment Before Event of Default. The Debt may be prepaid only in strict accordance with the express terms and conditions of the Note including the payment of any prepayment consideration. Section 9.2 Prepayment After Event of Default. If a Default Prepayment (defined below) occurs, Borrower shall pay to Lender the entire Debt, including without limitation, the Prepayment Fee; provided, however, that Borrower shall have no obligation to pay the Prepayment Fee unless the obligation to make the Default Prepayment occurs during the Closed Period (as defined in the Note).

Section 11.3 Right to Cure Defaults. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default or if Borrower fails to make any payment or to do any act as herein provided, Lender may, but without any obligation to do so and without notice to or demand on Borrower and without releasing Borrower from any obligation hereunder, make or do the same in such manner and to such extent as Lender may deem necessary to protect the security hereof. Lender is authorized to enter upon the Property for such purposes, or appear in, defend, or bring any action or proceeding to protect its interest in the Property or to foreclose this Security Instrument or collect the Debt, and the cost and expense thereof (including reasonable attorneys' fees to the extent permitted by law), with interest as provided in this Section 11.3, shall constitute a portion of the Debt and shall be due and payable to Lender upon demand. All such costs and expenses incurred by Lender in remedying such Event of Default or such failed payment or act or in appearing in, defending, or bringing any such action or proceeding shall bear interest at the Default Rate, for the period after notice from Lender that such cost or expense was incurred to the date of payment to Lender.

Section 11.5 Recovery of Sums Required To Be Paid. Lender shall have the right from time to time to take action to recover any sum or sums which constitute a part of the Debt as the same become due, without regard to whether or not the balance of the Debt shall be due, and without prejudice to the right of Lender thereafter to bring an action of foreclosure, or any other action, for a default or defaults by Borrower existing at the time such earlier action was commenced. Section 11.6 Examination of Books and Records. Lender, its agents, accountants and attorneys shall have the right, upon reasonable advance notice and at reasonable times, to examine the records, books, management and other papers of Borrower and its affiliates or of any Guarantor or Indemnitor which reflect upon their financial condition, at the Property or at any office regularly maintained by Borrower, its affiliates or any Guarantor or Indemnitor where the books and records are located.

This Section 11.6 shall apply throughout the term of the Note and without regard to whether an Event of Default has occurred or is continuing. Section 11.7 Other Rights, etc. (a) The failure of Lender to insist upon strict performance of any term hereof shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any term of this Security Instrument. Borrower shall not be relieved of Borrower's obligations hereunder by reason of (i) the failure of Lender to comply with any request of Borrower, any Guarantor or any Indemnitor to take any action to foreclose this Security Instrument or otherwise enforce any of the provisions hereof or of the Note or the Other Security Documents, (ii) the release, regardless of consideration, of the whole or any part of the Property, or of any person liable for the Debt or any portion thereof, or (iii) any agreement or stipulation by Lender extending the time of payment or otherwise modifying or supplementing the terms of the Note, this Security Instrument or the Other Security Documents. (b) It is agreed that the risk of loss or damage to the Property is on Borrower, and Lender shall have no liability whatsoever for decline in value of the Property, for failure to maintain the Policies, or for failure to determine whether insurance in force is adequate as to the amount of risks insured. Possession by Lender shall not be deemed an election of judicial relief, if any such possession is requested or obtained, with respect to any Property or collateral not in Lender's possession. (c) Lender may resort for the payment of the Debt to any other security held by Lender in such order and manner as Lender, in its discretion, may elect. Lender may take action to recover the Debt, or any portion thereof, or to enforce any covenant hereof without prejudice to the right of Lender thereafter to foreclose this Security Instrument. The rights of Lender under this Security Instrument shall be separate, distinct and cumulative and none shall be given effect to the exclusion of the others. No act of Lender shall be construed as an election to proceed under any one provision herein to the exclusion of any other provision. Lender shall not be limited exclusively to the rights and remedies herein stated but shall be entitled to every right and remedy now or hereafter afforded at law or in equity. Section 11.8 Right to Release Any Portion of the Property. Lender may release any portion of the Property for such consideration as Lender may require without, as to the remainder of the Property, in any way impairing or affecting the lien or priority of this Security Instrument, or improving the position of any subordinate lienholder with respect thereto, except to the extent that the obligations hereunder shall have been reduced by the actual monetary consideration, if any, received by Lender for such release, and may accept by assignment, pledge or otherwise any other property in place thereof as Lender may require without being accountable for so doing to any other lienholder. This Security Instrument shall continue as a lien and security interest in the remaining portion of the Property. Section 11.9 Violation of Laws. If the Property is not in compliance with Applicable Laws, Lender may impose additional requirements upon Borrower in connection herewith including, without limitation, monetary reserves or financial equivalents.

A separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against Borrower, whether or not action is brought against any other person or entity or whether or not any other person or entity is joined in the action or actions.

Any and all sums received by Lender under the Note, this Security Instrument, and the Other Security Documents shall be applied to the Debt in such order and priority as Lender shall determine, in its sole discretion, without regard to the allocated loan amounts set forth on Exhibit A to the Note or the appraised value of the Property or the Additional Property.
