respect to such Leases and cooperate with the Mortgagee in all respects to cure

debts secured thereby, or the manner of collection of such taxes, so as to

Mortgagee or such holder, or reimburse Mortgagee or such holder for payment of,
all taxes, assessments, charges or liens for which Mortgagee or such holder is

then Mortgagee may, at its option, declare the Obligations immediately due and
payable or require Mortgagor to pay or reimburse Mortgagee for payment of the
lawful and non-usurious portion thereof.
SECTION 1.07. Damage and Destruction.
(a) Mortgagor's Obligations. In the event of any damage to or loss or
destruction of the Premises, Mortgagor shall (i) promptly notify Mortgagee of
such event and take such steps as shall be necessary to preserve any undamaged
portion of the Premises and (ii) unless otherwise instructed by Mortgagee and so
long as any insurance proceeds paid to Mortgagee hereunder in respect of such
damage or destruction are made available by Mortgagee to Mortgagor (but without
imposing on Mortgagor any obligation to make such proceeds available to
Mortgagor other than as expressly required pursuant to Section 4.03(b) of the
Credit Agreement), promptly commence and diligently pursue to completion the
restoration, replacement and rebuilding of the Premises to the condition of the
Premises affected thereby immediately prior to such damage, loss or destruction
in accordance with plans and specifications approved, and with other provisions
for the preservation of the security hereunder established, by Mortgagee.
(b) Mortgagee's Rights; Application of Proceeds. In the event that (i) any
portion of the Premises is so damaged, destroyed or lost, (ii) such damage,
destruction or loss is covered, in whole or in part, by insurance required by

such insurance policy, then the proceeds of such insurance policy shall be
applied as provided in Section 4.03(b) of the Credit Agreement.
(c) Effect on the Obligations. Notwithstanding any loss, damage or destruction
referred to in this Section 1.07, Mortgagor shall continue to pay and perform
the Obligations as provided herein. Any reduction in the Obligations resulting
from such application shall be deemed to take effect only on the date of receipt
by Mortgagee of such insurance proceeds and application against the Obligations,
provided that if prior to the receipt by Mortgagee of such insurance proceeds
the Mortgaged Property shall have been sold on foreclosure of this Mortgage, or
shall have been transferred by deed in lieu of foreclosure of this Mortgage,
Mortgagee shall have the right to receive the same to the extent of any
deficiency found to be due upon such sale, with interest thereon at the rate and
as provided in the Credit Agreement together with attorneys' fees and
disbursements incurred by Mortgagee in connection with the collection thereof.
SECTION 1.08. Condemnation. (a) Mortgagor's Obligations; Proceedings. Mortgagor,

domain, or of any other proceedings arising out of injury or damage to or
decrease in the value of the Premises, including a change in grade of any
street, shall notify Mortgagee of the threat or pendency thereof. Mortgagee may

execute and deliver to Mortgagee all instruments requested by Mortgagee or as
may be required to permit such participation. Mortgagor shall, at its expense,
diligently prosecute any such proceedings, shall deliver to Mortgagee copies of
all papers served in connection therewith and shall consult and cooperate with
Mortgagee, its attorneys and agents, in the carrying on and defense of any such
proceedings; provided that no settlement of any such proceeding shall be made by
Mortgagor without Mortgagee's consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld.
7
(b) Trustee's and Mortgagee's Rights to Proceeds. All proceeds of condemnation
awards or proceeds of sale in lieu of condemnation, and all judgments, decrees
and awards for injury or damage to the Premises greater than $5,000,000
(collectively, "Awards") are hereby assigned and shall be paid to Mortgagee.
Mortgagor authorizes Mortgagee to collect and receive the same, to give receipts
and acquittances therefor, and to appeal from any Awards.
(c) Application of Proceeds. Mortgagee shall have the right to apply any Awards,
first, to reimburse Mortgagee for all reasonable costs and expenses, and,
second, the remainder thereof in the manner provided in Section 4.03(b) of the
Credit Agreement as if such Awards were insurance proceeds. In the event that
Mortgagor shall have received all or any portion of such Awards, Mortgagor, upon
demand from Mortgagee, shall pay to Mortgagee an amount equal to the amount so
received by Mortgagor, to be applied as Mortgagee shall have the right pursuant
to this Section 1.08(c). Notwithstanding anything herein or at law or in equity
to the contrary, none of the Awards paid to Mortgagee under this Section 1.08(c)
shall be deemed trust funds and Mortgagee shall be entitled to dispose of the
same as provided in this Section 1.08(c).
(d) Effect on the Obligations. Notwithstanding any condemnation, taking or other
proceeding referred to in this Section 1.08, Mortgagor shall continue to pay and
perform the Obligations as provided herein. Any reduction in the Obligations
resulting from such application shall be deemed to take effect only on the date
of receipt by Mortgagee of such Awards and application against the Obligations,
provided that if prior to the receipt by Mortgagee of such Awards the Mortgaged
Property shall have been sold on foreclosure of this Mortgage, or shall have
been transferred by deed in lieu of foreclosure of this Mortgage, Mortgagee
shall have the right to receive the same to the extent of any deficiency found
to be due upon such sale, with interest thereon at the rate and as provided in
the Credit Agreement together with attorneys' fees and disbursements incurred by
Mortgagee in connection with the collection thereof.
SECTION 1.09. Contest. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in
Section 1.03(c), Section 1.05 or Section 1.06 hereof, Mortgagor shall have the
right to contest in good faith and at its own expense the validity or
applicability of any duty or obligation described in Section 1.03(c) hereof, the
validity of any lien, encumbrance, charge or security referred to in Section
1.05 hereof and any Imposition imposed upon the Premises (a "Contest") by an
appropriate legal proceeding which proceeding must operate to prevent the
collection of such Impositions or other realization thereon and the sale or
forfeiture of the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof to satisfy the same;
provided that during the pendency of such Contest, Mortgagor shall provide
security reasonably satisfactory to Mortgagee (which security may be in the form
of a bond or undertaking deposited into a court, in either case sufficient to
remove the lien, encumbrance, charge or security in question), assuring the
discharge of Mortgagor's obligations that are the subject of such Contest
("Contested Impositions") and of any additional interest, charge, penalty or
expense arising from or incurred as a result of such Contest; and provided,
further, that if at any time payment of such Contested Impositions shall become
necessary to prevent (a) the delivery of a tax deed conveying the Mortgaged
Property because of non-payment or (b) the imposition of any civil or criminal
penalty or liability on Mortgagee or the holders of the Obligations, Mortgagor
shall pay the same in sufficient time to avoid the delivery of such
8
tax deed or the imposition of any such penalty or liability.
ARTICLE II
Assignment of Leases, Rents and Other Sums
SECTION 2.01. Assignment. (a) Mortgagor hereby absolutely and presently
bargains, sells, transfers, assigns and sets over to Mortgagee, as further
security for the payment of the Obligations, all of its right, title and
interest in and to the Leases and the Rents payable thereunder and all rights of
Mortgagor thereunder and any and all deposits held as security under the Leases,
whether before or after foreclosure or during the full period of redemption, if
any, and shall, upon demand, deliver to Mortgagee an executed counterpart of
each Lease. The assignment of the Leases and Rents, and of the aforesaid rights
with respect thereto, is intended to be and is an absolute present assignment
from Mortgagor to Mortgagee and not merely the passing of a security interest.
Such assignment and grant shall continue in effect until the Obligations are
paid, the execution of this Mortgage constituting and evidencing the irrevocable
consent of Mortgagor to the entry upon and taking possession of the Premises by
Mortgagee pursuant to such grant, whether foreclosure has been instituted or not
and without applying for a receiver. Until the occurrence of an Event of Default
hereunder, Mortgagor shall be entitled, subject to any provisions of the Loan
Documents and the Permitted ▇▇▇▇▇▇ providing otherwise, to collect and receive
the Rents and agrees to apply the same in the ordinary course of business. Such
right of Mortgagor to collect and receive said Rents shall be automatically
revoked upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and thereafter Mortgagee
shall have the right and authority to exercise any of the rights or remedies
referred to or set forth in Article V hereof. In addition, upon such an Event of
Default, Mortgagor shall promptly pay to Mortgagee (i) all rent prepayments and
security or other deposits paid to Mortgagor pursuant to any lease assigned
hereunder and (ii) all charges for services or facilities or for escalation
which were paid pursuant to any such Lease to the extent allocable to any period
from and after such Event of Default. Nothing contained in this Section 2.01(a)
shall be construed to bind Mortgagee to the performance of any of the covenants,
conditions or provisions contained in any Lease or otherwise to impose any
obligation on Mortgagee prior to accepting receipt of such Rent (including any
liability under the covenant of quiet enjoyment contained in any Lease or under
any applicable law in the event that any tenant shall have been joined as a
party defendant in any action to foreclose this Mortgage and shall have been
barred and foreclosed thereby of all right, title and interest and equity of
redemption in the Premises), except that Mortgagee shall be accountable for any
money actually received pursuant to such assignment. Mortgagor hereby further
grants to Mortgagee the right, after the occurrence of an Event of Default
hereunder, to notify the tenant under any Lease of the assignment thereof and
(1) to demand that the tenant under any Lease pay all amounts due thereunder
directly to Mortgagee, (2) to enter upon and take possession of the Premises for
the purpose of collecting the Rents, (3) to dispossess by the usual summary
proceedings any tenant defaulting in the payment thereof, (4) to let the
Premises, or any part thereof, and (5) to apply the Rents, after payment of all
necessary charges and expenses, on account of the Obligations.
(b) Mortgagor shall, as and when requested from time to time by Mortgagee,
9
execute, acknowledge and deliver to Mortgagee, in form reasonably acceptable to
Mortgagee and Mortgagor, one or more general or specific assignments of the
lessor's interest under any Lease. Mortgagor shall, on demand, pay to Mortgagee,
or reimburse Mortgagee for the payment of any reasonable costs or expenses
incurred in connection with the preparation or recording of any such assignment.
SECTION 2.02. Leases and Rents. (a) Mortgagor shall (i) perform or cause to be
performed all the lessor's obligations under any Lease, (ii) enforce (including
the termination and cancellation of any Lease, so long as the same is a bona
fide enforcement of Mortgagor's right as lessor under any such Lease and such
termination or cancellation, either by itself or in the aggregate with other
terminations and cancellations, shall not diminish or impair the security of
this Mortgage) the performance by the lessee under its respective Lease of all
of said lessee's obligations thereunder, (iii) give Mortgagee prompt notice and
a copy of any notice of default, event of default, termination or cancellation
sent or received by Mortgagor in respect of any Lease producing an annual income
to Mortgagor of $100,000 or more (such Lease, a AMaterial Lease"); but nothing
contained herein shall preclude Mortgagor from modifying, supplementing or
amending any existing Lease or preclude Mortgagor from entering, subject to
Section 2.02(b) hereof, into additional Leases which may, from time to time, be
modified, supplemented, amended, terminated or cancelled by Mortgagor subject to
the provisions of this Section 2.02(a).
(b) Mortgagor agrees that any Lease, the termination of which could reasonably
be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, shall contain the following
provision:
A[Tenant] acknowledges and agrees that this [Lease] is subject and subordinate
to that certain Tranche B Mortgage, Assignment of Leases and Rents, Security
Agreement and Fixture Filing, dated as of March __, 2000, made by [Landlord] in
favor of Citibank, N.A. as collateral agent for the lenders listed therein
(together with any amendment, assignment or other modification thereof made at
any time, the AMortgage"), such subordination being self-operative and requiring
no further instrument of subordination. If at any time the mortgagee under the
Mortgage (together with successors and assigns of such mortgagee, AMortgagee")
or any other person or the successors or assigns of any of the foregoing shall
succeed to the rights of [Landlord] (any such successor, a ASuccessor
Landlord"), then [Tenant] shall, at the election and upon the request of any
Successor Landlord, fully and completely attorn to and recognize such Successor
Landlord as the landlord under this [Lease] upon the then executory terms of
this [Lease], except that such Successor Landlord shall not be (a) liable for

to the rights of any lessee) rejects or disaffirms such Lease pursuant to any
bankruptcy law, Mortgagor hereby assigns to Mortgagee the proceeds of any claims
(including the right to retain or apply any security deposits) that Mortgagor
may have against the lessee (or receiver, trustee, custodian or other party who

rejection or disaffirmance of such Lease pursuant to any bankruptcy law), and

and cooperate with Mortgagee, its attorneys and agents, in the carrying on and
defense of any such proceedings; provided that no settlement of any such

disbursements) which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against any of
the indemnified parties in connection with any transaction in any way connected

any portion of the Mortgaged Property or any legal or equitable interest
therein.

SECTION 5.02. Remedies. Upon the occurrence of any one or more Events of
Default, or any Transfer without the consent of Mortgagee, Mortgagee may, in
addition to any rights or remedies available to it hereunder or under the other
Loan Documents or the Permitted ▇▇▇▇▇▇ and to the extent permitted by applicable
law, take such action personally or by its agents or attorneys, with or without
entry, and without notice, demand, presentment or protest (each and all of which
are hereby waived except as expressly provided otherwise herein), as it deems
necessary or advisable to protect and enforce its rights and remedies against
Mortgagor and in and to the Mortgaged Property, including the following actions,
each of which may be pursued concurrently or otherwise, at such time and in such
order as Mortgagee may determine, in its sole discretion, without impairing or
otherwise affecting its other rights or remedies:
(a) declare the entire balance of the Obligations to be immediately due and
payable, and upon any such declaration, the entire unpaid balance of the

herein); or
(b) institute a proceeding or proceedings, judicial or otherwise, for the
complete or partial foreclosure of this Mortgage under any applicable provision

performance of any of the provisions contained in the Loan Documents or the

the solvency of Mortgagor or any other person liable for the payment of the
Obligations, and Mortgagor and each other person so liable waives or shall be
deemed to have waived such necessity and consents or shall be deemed to have
consented to such appointment; or
14
(f) enter upon the Premises, and exclude Mortgagor and its agents and servants
wholly therefrom, without liability for trespass, damages or otherwise, and take
possession of all books, records and accounts relating thereto and all other
Mortgaged Property, and Mortgagor agrees to surrender possession of the
Mortgaged Property and of such books, records and accounts to Mortgagee on
demand after the happening of any Event of Default; and having and holding the
same may use, operate, manage, preserve, control and otherwise deal therewith
and conduct the business thereof, either personally or by its superintendents,
managers, agents, servants, attorneys or receivers, without interference from
Mortgagor; and upon each such entry and from time to time thereafter may, at the
expense of Mortgagor and the Mortgaged Property, without interference by
Mortgagor and as Mortgagee may deem reasonably advisable, (i) insure or reinsure
the Premises, (ii) make all necessary or proper repairs, renewals, replacements,
alterations, additions, betterments and improvements thereto and thereon and
(iii) in every such case in connection with the foregoing have the right to
exercise all rights and powers of Mortgagor with respect to the Mortgaged
Property, either in Mortgagor's name or otherwise; or
(g) with or without the entrance upon the Premises, collect, receive, ▇▇▇ for
and recover in its own name all Rents and cash collateral derived from the
Mortgaged Property, and after deducting therefrom all costs, expenses and
liabilities of every character reasonably incurred by Mortgagee in collecting
the same and in using, operating, managing, preserving and controlling the
Mortgaged Property, and otherwise in exercising Mortgagee's rights under
subsection (f) of this Section 5.02, including all amounts necessary to pay
Impositions, insurance premiums and other charges due and payable in connection

the management of the Premises, by Mortgagee or a third party acting on behalf
of Mortgagee, to apply the remainder as provided in Section 5.05 hereof; or
(h) release any portion of the Mortgaged Property for such consideration as
Mortgagee may require without, as to the remainder of the Mortgaged Property, in
any way impairing or affecting the lien or priority of this Mortgage, or
improving the position of any subordinate lienholder with respect thereto,
except to the extent that the Obligations shall have been reduced by the actual
monetary consideration, if any, received by Mortgagee for such release and
applied to the Obligations, and may accept by assignment, pledge or otherwise
any other property in place thereof as Mortgagee may require without being
accountable for so doing to any other lienholder; or
(i) take all actions permitted under the UCC; or
(j) take any other action, or pursue any other right or remedy, as Mortgagee may
have under applicable law, and Mortgagor does hereby grant the same to

deemed to have entered upon or taken possession of the Mortgaged Property except
upon the exercise of its option to do so, evidenced by its demand and overt act
for such purpose, nor shall it be deemed a beneficiary or mortgagee in
possession by reason of such entry or taking possession. Mortgagee shall not be
liable to account for any action taken pursuant to any such exercise other than
for Rents actually received by Mortgagee, nor liable for any loss sustained by
Mortgagor resulting from any failure to let the Premises, or
15
from any other act or omission of Mortgagee except to the extent such loss is
caused by the willful misconduct or bad faith of Mortgagee or its agents or
representatives.
SECTION 5.03. Rights Pertaining to Sales. Subject to the provisions or other
requirements of law and except as otherwise provided herein, the following
provisions shall apply to any sale or sales of all or any portion of the
Mortgaged Property under or by virtue of this Article V, whether made under the
power of sale herein granted or by virtue of judicial proceedings or of a
judgment or decree of foreclosure and sale:
(a) Mortgagee may conduct any number of sales from time to time. The power of
sale set forth in Section 5.02(c) hereof shall not be exhausted by any one or
more such sales as to any part of the Mortgaged Property which shall not have
been sold, nor by any sale which is not completed or is defective in Mortgagee's
opinion, until the Obligations shall have been paid in full.
(b) Any sale may be postponed or adjourned by public announcement at the time
and place appointed for such sale or for such postponed or adjourned sale
without further notice. Without limiting the foregoing, in case Mortgagee shall
have proceeded to enforce any right or remedy under this Mortgage by receiver,
entry or otherwise, and such proceedings have been discontinued or abandoned for
any such reason or shall have been determined adversely to Mortgagee, then in
every such case Mortgagor and Mortgagee shall be restored to their former
positions and rights hereunder, and all rights, powers and remedies of Mortgagee
shall continue as if no such proceeding had been taken.
(c) After each sale, Mortgagee or an officer of any court empowered to do so
shall execute and deliver to the purchaser or purchasers at such sale a good and
sufficient instrument or instruments granting, conveying, assigning and
transferring all right, title and interest of Mortgagor in and to the property
and rights sold and shall receive the proceeds of said sale or sales and apply
the same as herein provided. Mortgagee is hereby appointed the true and lawful
attorney-in-fact of Mortgagor, which appointment is irrevocable and shall be
deemed to be coupled with an interest, in Mortgagor's name and stead, to make
all necessary conveyances, assignments, transfers and deliveries of the property
and rights so sold, and for that purpose Mortgagee may execute all necessary
instruments of conveyance, assignment, transfer and delivery, and may substitute
one or more persons with like power, Mortgagor hereby ratifying and confirming
all that said attorney or such substitute or substitutes shall lawfully do by
virtue thereof. Nevertheless, Mortgagor, if requested by Mortgagee, shall ratify
and confirm any such sale or sales by executing and delivering to Mortgagee or
such purchaser or purchasers all such instruments as may be advisable, in
Mortgagee's judgment, for the purposes as may be designated in such request.
(d) Any and all statements of fact or other recitals made in any of the
instruments referred to in subsection (c) of this Section 5.03 given by
Mortgagee as to nonpayment of the Obligations, or as to the occurrence of any
Event of Default, or as to Mortgagee having declared all or any of the
Obligations to be due and payable, or as to the request to sell, or as to notice
of time, place and terms of sale and of the property or rights to be sold having
been duly given, or as to any other act or thing having been duly done by
Mortgagor or by Mortgagee in connection with the exercise of the remedies
described in this Section 5.03(d) shall be taken as conclusive and
16
binding against all persons as to evidence of the truth of the facts so stated
and recited absent manifest error. Mortgagee may appoint or delegate any one or
more persons as agent to perform any act or acts necessary or incident to any
sale so held, including the posting of notices and the conduct of sale.
(e) The receipt of Mortgagee for the purchase money paid at any such sale, or
the receipt of any other person authorized to receive the same, shall be
sufficient discharge therefor to any purchaser of any property or rights sold as
aforesaid, and no such purchaser, or its representatives, grantees or assigns,
after paying such purchase price and receiving such receipt, shall be bound to
see to the application of such purchase price or any part thereof upon or for
any trust or purpose of this Mortgage or, in any manner whatsoever, be
answerable for any loss, misapplication or nonapplication of any such purchase
money, or part thereof, or be bound to inquire as to the authorization,
necessity, expediency or regularity of any such sale.
(f) Any such sale or sales shall operate to divest all of the estate, right,
title, interest, claim and demand whatsoever, whether at law or in equity, of
Mortgagor in and to the properties and rights so sold, and shall be a perpetual
bar both at law and in equity against Mortgagor and any and all persons claiming
or who may claim the same, or any part thereof or any interest therein, by,
through or under Mortgagor to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.
(g) Upon any such sale or sales, Mortgagee may bid for and acquire the Mortgaged
Property and, in lieu of paying cash therefor, may make settlement for the
purchase price by crediting against the Obligations the amount of the bid made
therefor, after deducting therefrom the reasonable expenses of the sale, the
cost of any enforcement proceeding hereunder, and any other sums which Mortgagee
is authorized to deduct under the terms hereof, to the extent necessary to
satisfy such bid.
(h) In the event that Mortgagor, or any person claiming by, through or under
Mortgagor, shall transfer or refuse or fail to surrender possession of the
Mortgaged Property after any sale thereof, then Mortgagor, or such person, shall
be deemed a tenant at sufferance of the purchaser at such sale, subject to
eviction by means of forcible entry and unlawful detainer proceedings, or
subject to any other right or remedy available hereunder or under applicable
law.
(i) Upon any such sale, it shall not be necessary for Mortgagee or any public
officer acting under execution or order of court to have present or
constructively in its possession any of the Mortgaged Property. (j) In the event
a foreclosure hereunder shall be commenced by Mortgagee, Mortgagee may at any
time before the sale of the Mortgaged Property abandon the sale, and may
institute suit for the collection of the Obligations and for the foreclosure of
this Mortgage, or in the event that Mortgagee should institute a suit for
collection of the Obligations, and for the foreclosure of this Mortgage,
Mortgagee may at any time before the entry of final judgment in said suit
dismiss the same and require Mortgagee to sell the Mortgaged Property in
accordance with the provisions of this Mortgage.
(k) This mortgage is based upon the STATUTORY CONDITION and upon the further
condition that all covenants and agreements of Mortgagor in this Mortgage, all
other instruments executed in connection therewith and in all other mortgages,
debts and obligations of or from Mortgagor to Mortgagee shall be
17
kept and fully performed, and, upon any breach of the same, Mortgagee shall have
the STATUTORY POWER OF SALE and any other powers given by statute.
SECTION 5.04. Expenses. In any proceeding, judicial or otherwise, to foreclose
this Mortgage or enforce any other remedy of Mortgagee under the Loan Documents
or under any Permitted Hedge, there shall be allowed and included as an addition
to and a part of the Obligations in the decree for sale or other judgment or
decree all reasonable expenditures and expenses which may be paid or incurred in
connection with the exercise by Mortgagee of any of its rights and remedies
provided or referred to in Section 5.02 hereof, or any comparable provision of
any other Loan Document or any Permitted Hedge, together with interest thereon
at the rate and as provided in the Credit Agreement, and the same shall be part
of the Obligations and shall be secured by this Mortgage.
SECTION 5.05. Application of Proceeds. The purchase money, proceeds or avails of
any sale referred to in Section 5.02 hereof, together with any other sums which
may be held by Mortgagee hereunder, whether under the provisions of this Article
V or otherwise, shall, except as herein expressly provided to the contrary, be
applied as follows:
First: To the payment of the reasonable costs and expenses of any such sale,
including all amounts due hereunder, and of any judicial proceeding wherein the
same may be made, and of all reasonable expenses, liabilities and advances made
or incurred by Mortgagee hereunder, together with interest thereon as provided
herein, and all Impositions and other charges, except any Impositions or other
charges subject to which the Mortgaged Property shall have been sold.
Second: To the payment in full of the monetary Obligations (including principal,
interest, premium and fees) in such order as Mortgagee may elect.
Third: To the payment of any other sums secured hereunder or required to be paid
by Mortgagor pursuant to any provision of the Loan Documents or the Permitted
▇▇▇▇▇▇.
Fourth: To the extent permitted by applicable law, to be set aside by Mortgagee
as adequate security in its judgment for the payment of sums which would have
been paid by application under clauses First through Third above to Mortgagee,
arising out of an obligation or liability with respect to which Mortgagor has
agreed to indemnify Mortgagee, but which sums are not yet due and payable or
liquidated.
Fifth: To the payment of any withholding tax requirements of the Foreign
Investment in Real Property Tax Act of 1980, as amended.
Sixth: To the payment of the surplus, if any, to whomsoever may be lawfully
entitled to receive the same.
SECTION 5.06. Additional Provisions as to Remedies. (a) No delay or omission by
Mortgagee to exercise any right or remedy hereunder upon any default or Event of
Default shall impair such exercise, or be construed to be a waiver of any such
default or Event of Default.
(b) The failure, refusal or waiver (by consent, waiver or otherwise) of
18
Mortgagee to assert any right or remedy hereunder upon any default or Event of
Default or other occurrence shall not be construed as waiving such right or
remedy upon any other or subsequent default or Event of Default or other
occurrence.
(c) Mortgagee shall not have any obligation to pursue any rights or remedies it
may have under any other agreement prior to pursuing its rights or remedies
hereunder or under the other Loan Documents or under any Permitted Hedge.
(d) Acceptance of any payment after the occurrence of any default or Event of
Default shall not be deemed a waiver or a cure of such default or Event of
Default, and acceptance of any payment less than any amount then due shall be
deemed an acceptance on account only.
(e) In the event that Mortgagee shall have proceeded to enforce any right or
remedy hereunder by foreclosure, sale, entry or otherwise, and such proceeding
shall be discontinued, abandoned or determined adversely for any reason, then
Mortgagor and Mortgagee shall be restored to their former positions and rights
hereunder with respect to the Mortgaged Property, subject to the lien hereof.
(f) Each right of Mortgagee provided for in this Mortgage shall be cumulative
and shall be in addition to every other right provided for in this Mortgage or
now or hereafter existing at law or in equity, by statute or otherwise, and the
exercise by Mortgagee of any one or more of such rights shall not preclude the
simultaneous or later exercise by Mortgagee of any other such right.

may lawfully do so, Mortgagor agrees with Mortgagee as follows:
(a) Mortgagor shall not claim or take the benefit of any statute or rule of law
now or hereafter in force providing for any appraisement, valuation, stay,

Property (other than Mortgagee), hereby waives and releases all rights of
redemption, valuation, appraisement, notice of intention to mature or declare

of Mortgagor, including the Mortgaged Property, or to a sale in inverse order of
alienation, in the event of foreclosure of the liens and security interests

statute or rule of law pertaining to any of the matters set forth in subsection
