RECITALS

Unless otherwise defined herein, all capitalized terms herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in that certain Indenture of Trust by and between City of Bluffton, Indiana (“Issuer”) and Mortgagee dated of even date herewith (as the same may be modified or amended from time to time, the “Indenture“).

Mortgagor is the owner and holder of fee simple title in and to that certain real estate located in Bluffton, Xxxxx County, Indiana, as more fully described on Exhibit A (the “Land”).

Mortgagor desires to construct and operate a single 100 million gallons per year ethanol production facility and other amenities to be located on the Land (the “Facility”).

Mortgagor and Issuer have entered into the Loan Agreement dated as of even date herewith (the “Loan Agreement”) providing for the issuance by Issuer of the $22,000,000 aggregate principal amount of City of Bluffton, Indiana Subordinate Solid Waste Disposal Facility Revenue Bonds, Series 2007A (Indiana Bio-Energy, LLC Ethanol Plant Project) (the “Bonds”) for the purpose of loaning the proceeds thereof to Mortgagor in order to provide funds (i) to finance a portion of the costs of the Facility, (ii) to pay a portion of the interest accruing on the Bonds during construction thereof, (iii) to fund a debt service reserve fund for the Bonds and (iv) to pay certain costs of issuance relating to the Bonds. The payment obligations of Mortgagor under the Loan Agreement shall be collectively referred to in this Mortgage as the “Loan Payments.” The total principal amount secured by this Mortgage is $22,000,000.00, plus the amount of protective advances made by Mortgagee as provided for in this Mortgage or the Loan Agreement. The maximum principal amount secured by this Mortgage is $44,000,000.

The Loan Payments are payable and to be performed in accordance with the terms of the Loan Agreement, with the entire unpaid balance of the Loan Payment to mature and be due and payable in full not later than September 1, 2019 (the “Maturity Date”).

(ii)

all other amounts payable by Mortgagor under the Loan Agreement or this Mortgage as the same now exist or may hereafter be amended; and

(iii)

Pursuant to I.C. 32-29-1-10, the Loan Obligations include, and this Mortgage secures, future obligations and advances under the Loan Agreement and protective advances made under this Mortgage or the Loan Agreement and future modifications, extensions, conversions, and renewals of the Loan Obligations secured by this Mortgage.

NOW, THEREFORE, Mortgagor, in consideration of the issuance of the Bonds and the Issuer making such funds available to Mortgagor, intending to be legally bound and to secure the payment and performance of the Loan Obligations hereby irrevocably and unconditionally MORTGAGES and WARRANTS and collaterally assigns, collaterally transfers and pledges unto Mortgagee, its successors and assigns, forever, with right of entry and possession, and grants to Mortgagee, its successors and assigns, a Mortgage and security interest in the Land and any buildings, plants, facilities or improvements of any kind (collectively, the “Improvements”), now existing or hereafter constructed or placed thereon, described in Exhibit A attached hereto and all mineral rights, hereditaments, easements and appurtenances thereto, along with the following (to the extent permitted by applicable law or the agreement, instrument or other documents creating the Mortgagor’s rights therein), all of which together with the Land is called the “Mortgaged Property”:

MORTGAGOR FURTHER agrees as follows:

ARTICLE I

AGREEMENTS

Section 1.1.

Performance of Loan Obligations; Incorporation by Reference. Subject to any applicable cure or grace periods as set forth in the Loan Documents, Mortgagor shall pay and perform the Loan Obligations. Time is of the essence hereof. All of the covenants, obligations, agreements, warranties and representations of Mortgagor contained in this Mortgage and the Loan Agreement and all of the terms and provisions thereof are hereby incorporated herein and made a part hereof by reference as if fully set forth herein.

Section 1.2.

Further Assurances. If Mortgagee requests, Mortgagor shall sign and deliver and cause to be recorded as Mortgagee shall direct any further mortgages, amendments or supplements to this Mortgage, instruments of further assurance, certificates and other documents as Mortgagee reasonably may consider necessary or desirable in order to attach, perfect, continue and preserve the Loan Obligations and Mortgagee’s rights, title, estate, liens and interests under the Loan Agreement and this Mortgage. Mortgagor further agrees to pay to Mortgagee, upon demand, all reasonable and necessary costs and expenses incurred by Mortgagee in connection with the preparation, execution, recording, filing and refiling of any such documents, including reasonable attorneys’ fees.

Section 1.3.

Sale, Transfer, Encumbrance. If Mortgagor sells, conveys, transfers or otherwise disposes of, or encumbers, any part of its interest in the Mortgaged Property, whether voluntarily, involuntarily or by operation of law (except for Permitted Encumbrances), without the prior written consent of Mortgagee, Mortgagee shall have the option to declare the Loan Obligations immediately due and payable immediately upon notice. Included within the foregoing actions requiring prior written consent of Mortgagee are: (a) sale by deed or contract for deed; (b) mortgaging or granting a lien on the Mortgaged Property (other than the Permitted Encumbrances); and (c) a change of control in 50% or more of the equity interest or voting power or control of Mortgagor. Mortgagor shall give notice of any proposed action effecting any of the foregoing to Mortgagee for Mortgagee’s consent at least thirty (30) days prior to taking such action. Mortgagor shall pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Mortgagee in evaluating any such action. Mortgagee may condition its consent upon reasonable modification of the Loan Documents or payment of reasonable fees. No such action shall relieve Mortgagor from liability for the Loan Obligations as set forth herein. The consent by Mortgagee to any action shall not constitute a waiver of the necessity of such consent to any subsequent action.

Section 1.4.

Insurance. Mortgagor shall obtain, maintain and keep in full force and effect and shall furnish to Mortgagee copies of policies of insurance as described in, and meeting the requirements set forth in, the Loan Agreement. At least ten (10) days prior to the termination of any such coverage, Mortgagor shall provide Mortgagee with evidence satisfactory to Mortgagee that such coverage will be renewed or replaced upon termination with insurance that complies with the provisions of this Section and the Loan Agreement. Mortgagor, at its sole cost and expense, from time to time when Mortgagee shall so request, will provide Mortgagee with evidence in a form acceptable to Mortgagee, of the full insurable replacement cost of Mortgaged Property. All property and liability insurance policies maintained by Mortgagor pursuant to this Section and the Loan Agreement shall (a) include effective waivers by the insurer of all claims for insurance premiums against Mortgagee, and (b) provide that any losses shall be payable notwithstanding (i) any act of negligence by Mortgagor or Mortgagee, (ii) any foreclosure or other proceedings or notice of foreclosure sale relating to the Mortgaged Property, or (iii) any release from liability or waiver of subrogation rights granted by insured. In addition, all policies of casualty insurance shall contain standard noncontributory mortgagee loss payable clauses to Mortgagee, and the comprehensive general liability and other liability policies required in the Loan Agreement, including environmental pollution policies, shall name Mortgagee as an additional insured.

Section 1.5.

Taxes, Liens and Claims, Utilities. Mortgagor shall pay and discharge when due, or cause to be paid and discharged when due, all taxes, assessments and governmental charges and levies (collectively, “Impositions”) imposed upon or against the Mortgaged Property or the Rents (as hereinafter defined), or upon or against the Loan Obligations, or upon or against the interest of Mortgagee in the Mortgaged Property or the Loan Obligations, except Impositions measured by the income of Mortgagee. Mortgagor shall provide evidence of such payment at Mortgagee’s request. Mortgagor shall keep the Mortgaged Property free and clear of all liens (including, but not limited to, mechanics’ liens), encumbrances, easements, covenants, conditions, restrictions and reservations (collectively, “Encumbrances”) except those set forth in Exhibit B attached hereto and made a part hereof (the “Permitted Encumbrances “). Mortgagor shall pay or cause to be paid when due all charges or fees for utilities and services supplied to the Mortgaged Property. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section, Mortgagor shall not be required to pay or discharge any Imposition or Encumbrance so long as Mortgagor shall in good faith, and after giving notice to Mortgagee, contest the same by appropriate legal proceedings and otherwise in accordance with the requirements set forth in the Loan Agreement. If Mortgagor contests any Imposition or Encumbrance against the Mortgaged Property, Mortgagor shall provide such security to Mortgagee as Mortgagee shall reasonably require against loss or impairment of Mortgagor’s ownership of or Mortgagee’s lien on the Mortgaged Property and shall in any event pay such Imposition or Encumbrance before loss or impairment occurs.

Section 1.6.

Escrow Payments. If requested by Mortgagee after the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, Mortgagor shall deposit with Mortgagee monthly on the first day of each month the amount reasonably estimated by Mortgagee to be necessary to enable Mortgagee to pay, at least five (5) days before they become due, all Impositions against the Mortgaged Property and the premiums upon all insurance required hereby to be maintained with respect to the Mortgaged Property. All funds so deposited shall secure the Loan Obligations. Any such deposits shall be held by Mortgagee, or its nominee, in a non-interest bearing account and may be commingled with other funds. Such deposits shall be used to pay such Impositions and insurance premiums when due. Any excess sums so deposited shall be retained by Mortgagee and shall be applied to pay said items in the future, unless the Loan Obligations have been paid and performed in full, in which case all excess sums so paid shall be promptly refunded to Mortgagor. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Mortgagee may apply any funds in said account against the Loan Obligations in such order as Mortgagee may determine.

Section 1.7.

Maintenance and Repair; Compliance with Laws. Mortgagor shall cause the Mortgaged Property to be operated, maintained and repaired in safe and good repair, working order and condition, reasonable wear and tear, insured casualty loss excepted; shall not commit or permit waste thereof; except as provided in the Loan Agreement, shall not remove, demolish or substantially alter the design or structural character of any Improvements without the prior written consent of Mortgagee; shall complete or cause to be completed forthwith any Improvements which are now or may hereafter be under construction upon the Land; shall materially comply or cause material compliance with all laws, statutes, ordinances and codes, and governmental rules, regulations and requirements, applicable to the Mortgaged Property or the manner of using or operating the same, and with any covenants, conditions, restrictions and reservations affecting the title to the Mortgaged Property, and with the terms of all insurance policies relating to the Mortgaged Property; and shall obtain and maintain in full force and effect all consents, permits and licenses necessary for the use and operation of the Mortgaged Property in Mortgagor’s business. Mortgagor shall obtain and maintain in full force and effect all certificates, licenses, permits and approvals that are required by law or necessary for the construction of the Improvements or the use, occupancy or operation of the Project. Subject to the provisions of this Mortgage with respect to insurance proceeds and condemnation awards, Mortgagor shall promptly repair, restore and rebuild any Improvements now or hereafter on the Mortgaged Property which may become damaged or destroyed, such Improvements to be of at least equal value and quality and of substantially the same character as prior to such damage or destruction.

Section 1.8.

Leases. (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Mortgagor shall not enter into any Lease without Mortgagee’s prior written consent, and shall furnish to Mortgagee, upon execution, a complete and fully executed copy of each Lease. Mortgagor shall provide Mortgagee with a copy of each proposed Lease requiring the consent of Mortgagee and with any information requested by Mortgagee regarding the proposed Tenant thereunder. Mortgagee may declare each Lease to be prior or subordinate to this Mortgage, at Mortgagee’s option.

(b) Mortgagor shall, at its cost and expense, perform each obligation to be performed by the Landlord under each Lease; not borrow against, pledge or further assign any rents or other payments due thereunder; not permit the prepayment of any rents or other payments due for more than thirty (30) days in advance; and not permit any Tenant to assign its Lease or sublet the premises covered by its Lease, unless required to do so by the terms thereof and then only if such assignment does not work to relieve the Tenant of any liability for performance of its obligations thereunder.

(c) If any Tenant shall default under its Lease, Mortgagor shall, in the ordinary course of business, exercise sound business judgment with respect to such default, but may not discount, compromise, forgive or waive claims or discharge the Tenant from its obligations under the Lease or terminate or accept a surrender of the Lease.

(d) If Mortgagor fails to perform any obligations of Mortgagor under any Lease or if Mortgagee becomes aware of or is notified by any Tenant of a failure on the part of Mortgagor to so perform, Mortgagee may, but shall not be obligated to, without waiving or releasing Mortgagor from any obligation, remedy such failure, and Mortgagor agrees to repay upon demand all sums incurred by Mortgagee in remedying any such failure, together with interest thereon from the date incurred.

(e) For purposes of this Mortgage, the following terms shall have the following meanings:

(i)

“Landlord”: Any person or party leasing to Tenant any part of the Mortgaged Property pursuant to a Lease.

(ii)

“Lease”: Any lease, occupancy agreement or other document or agreement, written or oral, permitting any Person to use or occupy any part of the Mortgaged Property.

(iii)

“Person”: Any natural person, corporation, partnership, limited partnership, limited liability company, joint venture, firm, association, trust, unincorporated organization, government or governmental agency or political subdivision or any other entity, whether acting in an individual, fiduciary or other capacity.

(iv)

“Tenant”: Any Person or party using or occupying any part of the Mortgaged Property pursuant to a Lease.

Section 1.9.

Indemnity. Mortgagor shall indemnify Mortgagee together with its successors and assigns and Mortgagee’s directors and officers (collectively the “Indemnified Parties”) against, and hold the Indemnified Parties harmless from, all losses, damages, suits, claims, judgments, penalties, fines, liabilities, costs and expenses by reason of, or on account of, or in connection with the construction, reconstruction or alteration of the Mortgaged Property during Mortgagor’s ownership thereof, or any accident, injury, death or damage to any person or property occurring in, on or about the Mortgaged Property during Mortgagor’s ownership thereof, or any street, drive, sidewalk, curb or passageway adjacent thereto, except to the extent that the same results from the willful misconduct or gross negligence of the Person or party seeking indemnification. The indemnity contained in this Section shall include costs of defense of any such claim asserted against an Indemnified Party, including reasonable attorneys’ fees. The indemnity contained in this Section shall survive payment and performance of the Loan Obligations and satisfaction and release of this Mortgage and any foreclosure thereof or acquisition of title by deed in lieu of foreclosure.

Section 1.10.

Assignment of Leases and Rents. (a) As additional security for the Loan Obligations secured by this Mortgage, Mortgagor does hereby bargain, sell, assign, transfer and set over unto Mortgagee all Leases and all the rents, fees, issues, profits, revenues, royalties and other income of any kind (“Rents”) which, whether before or after foreclosure, or during the full statutory period of redemption, if any, shall accrue and be owing for the use or occupation of the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof. So long as no Event of Default exists under this Mortgage, Mortgagor shall have a revocable license to collect, but not more than one (1) month in advance under any Lease, all Rents earned prior to default. This Mortgage constitutes an absolute, irrevocable, currently effective assignment of Rents and profits. Mortgagor hereby appoints Mortgagee Mortgagor’s true and lawful attorney-in-fact with full power of substitution to, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, demand, collect and receive any and all Rents which may be or become due and payable by Tenants after the occurrence of any Event of Default, which appointment is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable. Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, Mortgagee may, at its discretion, file any claim or take any action to collect and enforce the payment of Rents, either in Mortgagee’s name or Mortgagor’s name or otherwise. Tenants are hereby expressly authorized and directed by Mortgagor to pay to Mortgagee all Rents upon Mortgagee’s demand, and such Tenants are hereby expressly relieved of any and all duty, obligation or liability in respect of any Rents so paid to Mortgagee.

(b) If, at any time after an Event of Default hereunder and during the continuation thereof, in the sole discretion of Mortgagee, a receivership may be necessary to protect the Mortgaged Property or its Rents, whether before or after maturity of any Loan Payments and whether before or at the time of or after the institution of suit to collect such Loan Obligations, or to enforce this Mortgage, Mortgagee, as a matter of strict right and regardless of the value of the Mortgaged Property or the amounts due hereunder or secured hereby, or of the solvency of any party bound for the payment of such Loan Obligations, shall have the right to the appointment of a receiver to take charge of, manage, preserve, protect, rent and operate the Mortgaged Property, to collect the Rents thereof, to make all necessary and needful repairs, and to pay all Impositions against the Mortgaged Property and all premiums for insurance thereon, and to do such other acts as may by such court be authorized and directed, and after payment of the expenses of the receivership and the management of the Mortgaged Property, to apply the net proceeds of such receivership in reduction of the Loan Obligations secured hereby or in such other manner as the said court shall direct notwithstanding the fact that the amount owing thereon may not then be due and payable or the said Loan Obligations are otherwise adequately secured. Such receivership shall, at the option of Mortgagee, continue until full payment of all sums hereby secured or until title to the Mortgaged Property shall have passed by sale under this Mortgage.

(c) The reasonable costs and expenses (including any receiver’s fees and reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by Mortgagee pursuant to the powers herein contained shall be reimbursed by Mortgagor to Mortgagee on demand as promptly as practicable, shall be secured hereby and shall bear interest from the date incurred at the interest rate applicable to advances made by the Trustee pursuant to the Indenture. Mortgagee shall not be liable to account to Mortgagor for any action taken pursuant hereto, other than to account for any Rents, fees, issues, revenues, profits or proceeds actually received by Mortgagee.

ARTICLE III

CASUALTY; CONDEMNATION

Section 3.1.

Casualty, Repair, Proof of Loss. If any portion of the Mortgaged Property shall be damaged or destroyed by any cause (a “Casualty”), Mortgagor shall, subject to Section 3.2 below:

(a)

give notice to the Mortgagee as promptly as practicable; and

(b)

unless the Mortgagee has withheld Casualty proceeds during the twelve (12) months prior to the Maturity Date and insurance proceeds and other funds are not available to Mortgagor, promptly commence and diligently pursue to completion (in accordance with plans and specifications approved by Mortgagee) the restoration, repair and rebuilding of the Mortgaged Property as nearly as possible to its value, condition and character immediately prior to the Casualty; and

(c)

if the Casualty is covered by insurance, immediately make proof of loss and to the extent permitted by this Mortgage, collect all insurance proceeds, all such proceeds to be payable to Mortgagee for deposit in the Condemnation and Awards Fund established pursuant to the Indenture or as Mortgagee shall direct. If an Event of Default shall be in existence, or if Mortgagor shall fail to provide notice to Mortgagee of filing proof of loss, or if Mortgagor shall not be diligently proceeding, in Mortgagee’s reasonable opinion, to collect such insurance proceeds, then Mortgagee may, but is not obligated to, make proof of loss, and is authorized, but is not obligated, to settle any claim with respect thereto, and to collect the proceeds thereof.

Section 3.2.

Use of insurance Proceeds. Mortgagee shall make the net insurance proceeds received by it, which amount shall be net of any amount payable pursuant to the Senior Mortgage (as that term is hereinafter defined) (after reimbursement of Mortgagee’s reasonable out-of-pocket costs of collecting and disbursing the same) available to Mortgagor to pay the cost of restoration, repair and rebuilding of the Mortgaged Property, subject to all of the following conditions precedent; provided that subparagraphs (b) through (f) shall apply only if the net insurance proceeds are $100,000 or more:

(a)

If the net insurance proceeds are less than $100,000, the Mortgagee shall pay the net proceeds to the Mortgagor. The Mortgagor shall proceed promptly to replace, repair, rebuild and restore the Mortgaged Property to substantially the same condition as existed before the taking or event causing the damage or destruction, with such changes, alterations and modifications (including substitution or addition of other property) as may be desired by the Mortgagor and will be suitable for continued operation of the Mortgagor for the business purposes of the Mortgagor, and the Mortgagor will pay all costs thereof. If the net proceeds are not sufficient to pay such costs in full, the Mortgagor shall pay that portion of the cost in excess of the amount of net proceeds and shall complete such repair, replacement, rebuilding or restoration as provided in the Indenture;

(b)

There shall be no Event of Default in existence at the time of any disbursement of the insurance proceeds, unless such Event of Default would be cured upon the application of such net proceeds; provided, however, this condition precedent shall be waived if Mortgagee is otherwise directed by the owners of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Bonds outstanding;

(c)

Mortgagee shall have determined, based upon a certificate of an Independent Engineer (as defined in the Indenture), that the cost of restoration, repair and rebuilding is and will be equal to or less than the amount of insurance proceeds and other funds deposited by Mortgagor with Mortgagee;

(d)

Mortgagee shall have determined, based upon a certificate of an Independent Engineer, that the restoration, repair and rebuilding can be completed in accordance with plans and specifications approved by Independent Engineer (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld), in accordance with codes and ordinances;

(e)

All funds shall be disbursed as provided in the Indenture; and

(f)

If any of these conditions shall not be satisfied, except as otherwise provided above, then Mortgagee shall apply the insurance proceeds first to the Rebate Fund (as defined in the Indenture) in accordance with the Indenture then to prepay the Loan Obligations by transferring the moneys on deposit in the Condemnation and Awards Fund to the Redemption Account established pursuant to the Indenture. If any insurance proceeds shall remain after completion of the restoration, repair and rebuilding of the Mortgaged Property, they shall be applied in accordance with the Indenture.

In the event such insurance proceeds are made available for restoration and repair by the Mortgagee, Mortgagor shall pay all costs incurred by Mortgagee in connection with the application of such insurance proceeds (including but not limited to reasonable costs incurred by Mortgagee, and a title company or agent approved by Mortgagee in overseeing the disbursement of such insurance proceeds), and the Improvements shall be restored or rebuilt so as to be of at least equal value and substantially the same character as prior to such damage or destruction.

Section 3.3.

Condemnation. If any portion of the Mortgaged Property shall be taken, condemned or acquired pursuant to exercise of the power of eminent domain or threat thereof (a “Condemnation”), Mortgagor shall:

(a)

give notice thereof to Mortgagee as promptly as practicable, and send a copy of each document received by Mortgagor in connection with the Condemnation to Mortgagee promptly after receipt; and

(b)

diligently pursue any negotiation and prosecute any proceeding in connection with the Condemnation at Mortgagor’s expense. If an Event of Default shall be in existence, or if Mortgagor, in Mortgagee’s reasonable opinion, shall not be diligently negotiating or prosecuting the claim, Mortgagee is authorized, but not required, to negotiate and prosecute the claim and appear at any hearing for itself and on behalf of Mortgagor and to compromise or settle all compensation for the Condemnation. Mortgagee shall not be liable to Mortgagor for any failure by Mortgagee to collect or to exercise diligence in collecting any such compensation. Mortgagor shall not compromise or settle any claim resulting from the Condemnation if such settlement shall result in payment of more than $500,000 less than Mortgagee’s reasonable estimate of the damages therefrom. All awards shall be paid to Mortgagee for deposit in the Condemnation and A wards Fund.

Section 3.4.

Use of Condemnation Proceeds. Mortgagee shall make the net proceeds of any Condemnation received by it, which amount shall be net of any amount payable pursuant to the Senior Mortgage (after reimbursement of Mortgagee’s out-of-pocket costs of collecting and disbursing the same) available to Mortgagor for restoration, repair and rebuilding of the Mortgaged Property, subject to all of the following conditions precedent; provided that subparagraphs (b) through (f) shall apply only if the net proceeds of any Condemnation are $100,000 or more:

(a)

If the net condemnation proceeds are less than $100,000, the Mortgagee shall pay the net proceeds to the Mortgagor. The Mortgagor shall proceed promptly to replace, repair, rebuild and restore the Mortgaged Property to substantially the same condition as existed before the taking or event causing the damage or destruction, with such changes, alterations and modifications (including substitution or addition of other property) as may be desired by the Mortgagor and will be suitable for continued operation of the Mortgagor for the business purposes of the Mortgagor, and the Mortgagor will pay all costs thereof. If the net proceeds are not sufficient to pay such costs in full, the Mortgagor shall pay that portion of the cost in excess of the amount of net proceeds and shall complete such repair, replacement, rebuilding or restoration as provided in the Indenture;

(b)

There shall be no Event of Default in existence at the time of any disbursement of the condemnation proceeds, unless such Event of Default would be cured upon applicable of such net proceeds; provided, however, this condition precedent shall be waived if Mortgagee is otherwise directed by the owners of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Bonds outstanding;

(c)

Mortgagee shall have determined, based upon a certificate of an Independent Engineer, that the cost of restoration, repair and rebuilding is and will be equal to or less than the amount of condemnation proceeds and other funds deposited by Mortgagor with Mortgagee;

(d)

Mortgagee shall have determined, based upon a certificate of an Independent Engineer, that the restoration, repair and rebuilding can be completed in accordance with plans and specifications approved by such Independent Engineer (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld), in accordance with codes and ordinances and in accordance with the terms, and within the time requirements in order to prevent termination, of any Lease;

(e)

All funds shall be disbursed in accordance with the Indenture; and

(f)

If any of these conditions shall not be satisfied, except as otherwise provided above, then Mortgagee shall apply the condemnation proceeds first to the Rebate Fund in accordance with the Indenture to prepay the Loan Obligations by transferring the moneys on deposit in the Condemnation and Awards Fund to the Redemption Account. If any condemnation proceeds shall remain after completion of the restoration, repair and rebuilding of the Mortgaged Property, they shall be applied in accordance with the Indenture.

ARTICLE IV

DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES

Section 4.1.

Events of Default. The term “Event of Default,” wherever used in this Mortgage, shall mean the occurrence of an Event of Default under the Loan Agreement.

Section 4.2.

Remedies. Subject to any applicable notice and cure and/or grace periods in the Loan Agreement after an Event of Default, Mortgagee shall be entitled to invoke, subject to any limitations or restrictions imposed by applicable law, any and all of the rights and remedies described below, in addition to all other rights and remedies available to Mortgagee under any Loan Document or at law or in equity. All of such rights and remedies shall be cumulative, and the exercise of anyone or more of them shall not constitute an election of remedies.

(a)

Acceleration. Mortgagee may declare any or all of the Loan Obligations to be due and payable immediately. If, while any insurance proceeds or condemnation awards are being held by Mortgagee to reimburse Mortgagor for the cost of rebuilding or restoration of buildings or improvements on the Mortgaged Property, Mortgagee shall accelerate the Loan Obligations, then and in such event, Mortgagee shall be entitled to apply all such insurance proceeds and condemnation awards then held by it in reduction of the Loan Obligations and any excess held by it over the amount of Loan Obligations then due hereunder shall be returned to Mortgagor or the Persons legally entitled thereto without interest.

(b)

Receiver. Mortgagee shall have the right to obtain a receiver in accordance with applicable law at any time after an Event of Default which is continuing, whether or not an action for foreclosure has been commenced. Any court having jurisdiction shall, at the request of Mortgagee following an Event of Default which is continuing, appoint a receiver to take immediate possession of the Mortgaged Property and to rent or operate the same as the receiver may deem best for the interest of all parties concerned, and such receiver shall be liable to account to the Mortgagor only for the net profits, after application of rents, issues and profits upon the costs and expenses of the receivership and upon the Loan Obligations. Mortgagee shall have the right, at any time, to advance money to the receiver to pay any part or all of the items which the receiver should otherwise pay if cash were available from the Mortgaged Property, and sums so advanced shall be payable upon demand and shall accrue interest until paid in full at the interest rate applicable to advances made by the Trustee pursuant to the Indenture.

(c)

Entry. Mortgagee, in person, by agent or by court-appointed receiver, may enter, take possession of, manage and operate all or any part of the Mortgaged Property, and may also do any and all other things in connection with those actions that Mortgagee may in its sole discretion consider necessary and appropriate to protect the security of this Mortgage. Such other things may include: taking and possessing all of Mortgagor’s or the then owner’s books and records; entering into, enforcing, modifying or canceling leases on such terms and conditions as Mortgagee may consider proper; obtaining and evicting tenants; fixing or modifying Rents; collecting and receiving any payment of money owing to Mortgagee; terminating management agreements, contracts or agents/managers responsible for the operation and/or property management of the Mortgaged Property; completing any unfinished construction; and/or contracting for and making repairs and alterations. If Mortgagee so requests, Mortgagor shall assemble all of the Mortgaged Property that has been removed from the Land and make all of it available to Mortgagee at the site of the Land. Mortgagor hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints Mortgagee as Mortgagor’s attorney-in-fact to, following the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, perform such acts and execute such documents as Mortgagee in its sole discretion may consider to be appropriate in connection with taking these measures, including endorsement of Mortgagor’s name on any instruments, such appointment being coupled with an interest and irrevocable.

(d)

Cure; Protection of Security. Mortgagee may cure any breach or default of Mortgagor, and if it chooses to do so in connection with any such cure, Mortgagee may also enter the Mortgaged Property and/or do any and all other things which it may in its sole reasonable discretion consider necessary and appropriate to protect the security of this Mortgage. Any reasonable amounts expended by Mortgagee under this Section 4.2(d) shall be secured by this Mortgage and shall be payable upon demand and shall accrue interest at the interest rate applicable to advances made by the Trustee pursuant to the Indenture until paid in full.

(e)

Uniform Commercial Code Remedies. Mortgagee may exercise any or all of the remedies granted to a secured party under the UCC.

(f)

Foreclosure; Lawsuits. Mortgagee or its nominee may institute such mortgage foreclosure actions provided for by Indiana law in accordance with applicable law and may bid and become the purchaser of all or any part of the Mortgaged Property at any foreclosure or other sale hereunder, and the amount of Mortgagee’s successful bid shall be credited on the Loan Obligations. Without limiting the foregoing, Mortgagee may proceed by a suit or suits at law or in equity, whether for specific performance of any covenant or agreement herein contained or contained in any of the other Loan Documents, or in aid of the execution of any power herein or therein granted, or for any foreclosure under the judgment or decree of any court of competent jurisdiction, or for damages, or to collect the Loan Obligations secured hereby, or for the enforcement of any other appropriate legal, equitable, statutory or contractual remedy.

(g)

Other Remedies. Mortgagee may exercise all rights and remedies contained in any other instrument, document, agreement or other writing heretofore or otherwise available at law or in equity, concurrently or in the future executed by Mortgagor or any other Person or entity in favor of Mortgagee in connection with the Loan Obligations or any part thereof, without prejudice to the right of Mortgagee thereafter to enforce any appropriate remedy against Mortgagor. Mortgagee shall have the right to pursue all remedies afforded to a Mortgagee under applicable law, and shall have the benefit of all of the provisions of such applicable law, including all amendments thereto which may become effective from time to time after the date hereof. In the event any provision of such statutes which is specifically referred to herein may be repealed, Mortgagee shall have the benefit of such provision as most recently existing prior to such repeal, as though the same were incorporated herein by express reference.

(h)

Power of Sale for Personal Mortgaged Property. Under this power of sale, Mortgagee shall have the discretionary right to cause some or all of the Mortgaged Property, which constitutes personal property, to be sold or otherwise disposed of in any combination and in any manner permitted by applicable law.

(i)

Determination of Personal Property. For purposes of the power of sale provided above, Mortgagee may elect to treat as personal property any Mortgaged Property which is intangible or which can be severed from the Land or Improvements without causing structural damage. If it chooses to do so, Mortgagee may dispose of any personal property, in any manner permitted by Article 9 of the UCC, including any public or private sale, or in any manner permitted by any other applicable law.

(j)

Single or Multiple Foreclosure Sales. If the Mortgaged Property consists of more than one lot, parcel or item of Mortgaged Property, Mortgagee may, in accordance with applicable law:

(i)

designate the order in which the lots, parcels and/or items shall be sold or disposed of or offered for sale or disposition; and

(ii)

elect to dispose of the lots, parcels and/or items through a single consolidated sale or disposition to be held or made under or in connection with judicial proceedings, or by virtue of a judgment and decree of foreclosure and sale, or pursuant to the power of sale contained herein; or through two or more such sales or dispositions; or in any other manner Mortgagee may deem to be in its best interests (any foreclosure sale or disposition as permitted by the terms hereof is sometimes referred to herein as a “Foreclosure Sale,” and any two or more such sales, “Foreclosure Sales”).

If it chooses to have more than one Foreclosure Sale, Mortgagee at its option may cause the Foreclosure Sales to be held simultaneously or successively, on the same day, or on such different days and at such different times and in such order as it may deem to be in its best interests. No Foreclosure Sale shall terminate or affect the liens of this Mortgage on any part of the Mortgaged Property which has not been sold, until the Loan Obligations have been paid in full.

Section 4.3.

Expenses of Exercising Rights, Powers and Remedies. The reasonable expenses (including any receiver’s fees, reasonable attorneys’ fees, appraisers’ fees, environmental engineers’ and/or consultants’ fees, auctioneer’s fees and costs, costs incurred for documentary and expert evidence, stenographers’ charges, publication costs, costs (which may be estimated as to items to be expended after entry of the decree of foreclosure) of procuring all abstracts of title, continuations of abstracts of title, title searches and examinations, UCC and chattel lien searches, and similar data and assurances with respect to title as Mortgagee may deem reasonably necessary either to prosecute any foreclosure action or to evidence to bidders at any sale which may be had pursuant to any foreclosure decree the true condition of the title to or the value of the Mortgaged Property) incurred by Mortgagee after the occurrence of any Event of Default and/or in pursuing the rights, powers and remedies contained in this Mortgage shall be immediately due and payable by Mortgagor, with interest thereon from the date incurred at the interest rate applicable to advances made by the Trustee pursuant to the Indenture and shall be added to the Loan Obligations secured by this Mortgage.

Section 4.4.

Restoration of Position. In case Mortgagee shall have proceeded to enforce any right under this Mortgage by foreclosure, sale, entry or otherwise, and such proceedings shall have been discontinued or abandoned for any reason or shall have been determined adversely, then, and in every such case, Mortgagor and Mortgagee shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder with respect to the Mortgaged Property subject to the lien hereof, except as might otherwise be determined by a final order of a court of competent jurisdiction.

Section 4.5. Marshalling. Mortgagor, for itself and on behalf of all Persons which may claim under Mortgagor, hereby waives all requirements of law relating to the marshalling of assets, if any, which would be applicable in connection with the enforcement by Mortgagee of its remedies for an Event of Default hereunder, absent this waiver. Mortgagee shall not be required to sell or realize upon any portion of the Mortgaged Property before selling or realizing upon any other portion thereof.

Section 4.6.

Waivers. No waiver of any provision hereof shall be implied from the conduct of the parties. Any such waiver must be in writing and must be signed by the party against which such waiver is sought to be enforced. The waiver or release of any breach of the provisions set forth herein to be kept and performed shall not be a waiver or release of any preceding or subsequent breach of the same or any other provision. No receipt of partial payment after acceleration of the Loan Obligations shall waive the acceleration. No payment by Mortgagor or receipt by Mortgagee of a lesser amount than the full amount secured hereby shall be deemed to be other than on account of the sums due and payable hereunder, nor shall any endorsement or statement on any check or any letter accompanying any check or payment be deemed an accord and satisfaction, and Mortgagee may accept any check or payment without prejudice to Mortgagee’s right to recover the balance of such sums or to pursue any other remedy provided in this Mortgage. The consent by Mortgagee to any matter or event requiring such consent shall not constitute a waiver of the necessity for such consent to any subsequent matter or event.

Section 4.7.

Mortgagee’s Right to Cure Defaults. If Mortgagor shall fail to comply with any of the terms of this Mortgage with respect to the procuring of insurance, the payment of taxes, assessments and other charges, the keeping of the Mortgaged Property in repair, or any other term contained herein and such failure shall continue for a period of three (3) days after notice of such failure from Mortgagee, Mortgagee may make advances to perform the same without releasing any of the Loan Obligations. Mortgagor agrees to repay upon demand all sums so advanced and all sums expended by Mortgagee in connection with such performance, including without limitation reasonable attorneys’ fees, with interest at the interest rate applicable to advances made by the Trustee pursuant to the Indenture from the dates such advances are made until paid in full, and all sums so advanced and/or expenses incurred, with interest, shall be secured hereby, but no such advance and/or incurring of expense by Mortgagee shall be deemed to relieve Mortgagor from any default hereunder, or to release any of the Loan Obligations.

Section 4.8.

Suits and Proceedings. Mortgagee shall have the power and authority, upon prior notice to Mortgagor, to institute and maintain any suits and proceedings as Mortgagee may deem advisable to (a) prevent any impairment of the Mortgaged Property by any act which may be unlawful or by any violation of this Mortgage, (b) preserve or protect its interest in the Mortgaged Property, or (c) restrain the enforcement of or compliance with any legislation or other governmental enactment, rule or order that may be unconstitutional or otherwise invalid, if, in the sole opinion of Mortgagee, the enforcement of or compliance with such enactment, rule or order might impair the security hereunder or be prejudicial to Mortgagee’s interest.
