The Mortgagor covenants to pay when due: all Federal, state, municipal, real property and other taxes, betterment and improvement assessments and other governmental levies, water rates, sewer charges, insurance premiums and other charges on or in any way related to the Property, this Mortgage or any Obligation secured hereby that could, if unpaid, result in a lien on the Property or on any interest therein. If and when requested by the Bank, the Mortgagor shall deposit from time to time with the Bank sums determined by the Bank to be sufficient to pay when due the amounts referred to in this Section. The Mortgagor shall have the right to contest any notice, lien, encumbrance, claim, tax, charge, betterment assessment or premium filed or asserted against or relating to the Property; provided that it contests the same diligently and in good faith and by proper proceedings and, at the Bank’s request, provides the Bank with adequate cash security, in the Bank’s reasonable judgment, against the enforcement thereof. The Mortgagor shall furnish to the Bank the receipted real estate tax bills or other evidence of payment of real estate taxes for the Property within thirty (30) days prior to the date from which interest or penalty would accrue for nonpayment thereof. The Mortgagor shall also furnish to the Bank evidence of all other payments referred to above within fifteen (15) days after written request therefor by the Bank. If Mortgagor shall fail to pay such sums, the Bank may, but shall not be obligated to, advance such sums. Any sums so advanced by the Bank shall be added to the Obligations, repaid by the Mortgagor to the Bank on demand and shall bear interest until repaid at the rate set forth in the Note that applies during the continuance of an Event of Default.
2.6 Notices; Notice of Default. The Mortgagor will deliver to the Bank, promptly upon receipt of the same, copies of all notices or other documents it receives that affect the Property or its use, or claim that the Mortgagor is in default in the performance or observance of any of the terms hereof or that the Mortgagor or any tenant is in default of any terms of the Leases. The Mortgagor further agrees to deliver to the Bank written notice promptly upon the occurrence of any Event of Default or event that with the giving of notice or lapse of time, or both, would constitute an Event of Default.
2.7 Takings. In case of any condemnation or expropriation for public use of, or any damage by reason of the action of any public or governmental entity or authority to, all or any part of the Property (a “Taking”), or the commencement of any proceedings or negotiations that might result in a Taking, the Mortgagor shall immediately give written notice to the Bank, describing the nature and extent thereof. The Bank may, at its option but at the Mortgagor’s expense, appear in any proceeding for a Taking or any negotiations relating to a Taking and the Mortgagor shall immediately give to the Bank copies of all notices, pleadings, determinations and other papers relating thereto. The Mortgagor shall in good faith and with due diligence and by proper proceedings file and prosecute its claims for any award or payment on account of any Taking. The Mortgagor shall not settle any such claim without the Bank’s prior written consent. The Mortgagor shall hold any amounts received with respect to such awards or claims, by settlement, judicial decree or otherwise, in trust for the Bank and immediately pay the same to the Bank. The Mortgagor authorizes any award or settlement due in connection with a Taking to be paid directly to the Bank in amounts not exceeding the Obligations. The Bank may apply such amounts to the Obligations in such order as the Bank may determine.
2.8 Insurance Proceeds. The proceeds of any insurance resulting from any loss with respect to the Property shall be paid to the Bank and, at the option of the Bank, be applied to the Obligations in such order as the Bank may determine; provided, however, that if the Bank shall require repair of the Property, the Bank may release all or any portion of such proceeds to the Mortgagor for such purpose. Any insurance proceeds paid to the Mortgagor shall be held in trust for the Bank and promptly paid to it.
3. Certain Rights of the BANK

The Bank shall have the right, but not the duty, to intervene or otherwise participate, at the Mortgagor’s expense, in any legal or equitable proceeding that, in the Bank’s reasonable judgment, might affect the Property or any of the rights created or secured by this Mortgage. The Bank shall have such right whether or not there shall have occurred an Event of Default hereunder.
3.2 Appraisals/Assessments. The Bank shall have the right, at the Mortgagor’s sole cost and expense, to obtain appraisals, environmental site assessments or other inspections of the portions of the Property that are real estate at such times as the Bank deems necessary or as may be required by applicable law, or its prevailing credit or underwriting policies.
| 8 |
3.3 Financial Statements. The Bank shall have the right, at the Mortgagor’s sole cost and expense, to require delivery of financial statements in form and substance acceptable to the Bank from the Mortgagor or any guarantor of any of the Obligations and the Mortgagor hereby agrees to deliver such financial statements and/or cause any such guarantor to so deliver any such financial statement when required by the Bank.
3.4 Leases and Rent Roll. The Mortgagor shall deliver to the Bank (i) during each calendar year and at such other times as the Bank shall request a rent roll for the Property, in form acceptable to the Bank, listing all tenants and occupants and describing all of the Leases; and (ii) at such times as the Bank shall request executed copies of all the Leases.
4. Defaults and Remedies
4.1 Events of Default. Each Event of Default described in the Loan Agreement shall constitute an Event of Default under this Mortgage.
4.2 Remedies. On the occurrence of any Event of Default or after DEMAND with respect to Obligations payable on DEMAND, the Bank shall have all of the rights and remedies set forth in the Loan Agreement, and may, at any time thereafter, at its option and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, without notice, exercise any or all of the following remedies:
| (a) | Enter, take possession of, manage and operate the Property (including all personal property and all records and documents pertaining thereto) and any part thereof and exclude the Mortgagor therefrom and take all actions it deems necessary or proper to preserve the Property and operate the Property as a mortgagee in possession with all the powers as could be exercised by a receiver or as otherwise provided herein or by applicable law; provided, however, the entry by the Bank upon the Property for any reason shall not cause the Bank to be a mortgagee in possession, except upon the express written declaration of the Bank; | |
| (b) | With or without taking possession of the Property, receive and collect all rents, income, issues and profits (“Rents”) from the Property (whether past due or thereafter accruing), including as may arise under the Leases, and the Mortgagor appoints the Bank as its true and lawful attorney with the power for the Bank in its own name and capacity to demand and collect Rents and take any action that the Mortgagor is authorized to take under the Leases. The Bank shall (after payment of all costs and expenses incurred) apply any Rents received by it to the Obligations in such order as the Bank determines, or in accordance with any applicable statute, and the Mortgagor agrees that exercise of such rights and disposition of such funds shall not be deemed to cure any default or constitute a waiver of any foreclosure once commenced nor preclude the later commencement of foreclosure for breach thereof. The Bank shall be liable to account only for such Rents actually received by the Bank. Lessees under the Leases are hereby authorized and directed, following notice from the Bank, to pay all amounts due the Mortgagor under the Leases to the Bank, whereupon such lessees shall be relieved of any and all duty and obligation to the Mortgagor with respect to such payments so made; |
| 9 |
| (c) | Sell the Property or any part thereof or interest therein pursuant to exercise of its power of sale pursuant to Article 14 of the New York Real Property Actions and Proceedings Law (to the extent applicable) or otherwise at public auction on terms and conditions as the Bank may determine, or otherwise foreclose this Mortgage in any manner permitted by law, and upon such sale the Mortgagor shall execute and deliver such instruments as the Bank may request in order to convey and transfer all of the Mortgagor’s interest in the Property, and the same shall operate to divest all rights, title and interest of the Mortgagor in and to the Property. In the event this Mortgage shall include more than one parcel of property or subdivision (each hereinafter called a “portion”), the Bank shall, in its sole and exclusive discretion, be empowered to (a) foreclose upon any such portion without impairing its right to foreclose subsequently upon any other portion or the entirety of the Property from time to time thereafter, and (b) determine in what order the portions are to be presented for sale. A deficiency judgment may be obtained after all or any portion of the Property has been sold, with such judgment taking into account the value of all of the parcels previously sold, and the period of time allowable for such judgment shall be deemed to run from the date of the last sale. In addition, the Bank may in its discretion subordinate this Mortgage to one or more Leases for the sole purpose of preserving any such Lease in the event of a foreclosure; | |
| (d) | Cause one or more environmental assessments to be taken, arrange for the cleanup of any Hazardous Materials or otherwise cure the Mortgagor’s failure to comply with Environmental Law or other applicable law, and the Mortgagor shall provide the Bank or its agents with access to the Property for such purposes; provided that the exercise of any of such remedies shall not be deemed to have relieved the Mortgagor from any responsibility therefor or given the Bank “control” over the Property or cause the Bank to be considered to be a mortgagee in possession, “owner” or “operator” of the Property for purposes of any Environmental Law or other applicable law, rule or regulation; and | |
| (e) | Take such other actions or proceedings as the Bank deems necessary or advisable to protect its interest in the Property and ensure payment and performance of the Obligations, including, without limitation, appointment of a receiver without prior notice (and the Mortgagor hereby waives any right to object to such appointment) and exercise of any of the Bank’s remedies provided herein or in any other Loan Document or otherwise available to a secured party or mortgagee under the Uniform Commercial Code or under other applicable law. |
In addition, the Bank shall have all other remedies provided by applicable law, including, without limitation, the right to pursue an action by summary proceeding pursuant to Article 7 of the Real Property Action and Proceedings Law of the State of New York, or a judicial sale of the Property or any portion thereof by deed, assignment or otherwise.
The Mortgagor agrees and acknowledges that the acceptance by the Bank of any payments from either the Mortgagor or any guarantor after the occurrence of any Event of Default, the exercise by the Bank of any remedy set forth herein or the commencement, discontinuance or abandonment of foreclosure proceedings against the Property shall not waive the Bank’s subsequent or concurrent right to foreclose or operate as a bar or estoppel to the exercise of any other rights or remedies of the Bank. The Mortgagor agrees and acknowledges that the Bank, by making payments or incurring costs described herein, shall be subrogated to any right of the Mortgagor to seek reimbursement from any third parties, including, without limitation, any predecessor in interest to the Mortgagor’s title or other party who may be responsible under any law, regulation or ordinance relating to the presence or cleanup of Hazardous Materials.
4.3 Advances. If the Mortgagor fails to pay or perform any of its obligations respecting the Property, the Bank may in its sole discretion do so without waiving or releasing Mortgagor from any such obligation. Any such payments may include, but are not limited to, payments for taxes, assessments and other governmental levies, water rates, insurance premiums, maintenance, repairs or improvements constituting part of the Property. Any amounts paid by the Bank hereunder shall be, until reimbursed by the Mortgagor, part of the Obligations and secured by this Mortgage, and shall be due and payable to the Bank, on demand, together with interest thereon to the extent permitted by applicable law, at the interest rate set forth in the Note that applies during the continuance of an Event of Default.
| 10 |
4.4 Cumulative Rights and Remedies. All of the foregoing rights, remedies and options (including without limitation the right to enter and take possession of the Property, the right to manage and operate the same, and the right to collect Rents, in each case whether by a receiver or otherwise) are cumulative and in addition to any rights the Bank might otherwise have, whether at law or by agreement, and may be exercised separately or concurrently and none of which shall be exclusive of any other.
