the Loan Agreement or the Indebtedness (hereinafter referred to as
“ Impositions ”) and will thereafter deliver the
paid receipts therefor to Mortgagee within ten (10) days after
request therefor by Mortgagee. In the event of any legislative
enactment or judicial decision after the date of this Mortgage,
imposing upon Mortgagee the obligation to pay any such Imposition,
or deducting the lien of this Mortgage from the value of the
Mortgaged Property for the purpose of taxation, or changing in any
way the laws now in force for the taxation of mortgages or debts
secured thereby, or the manner, operation or method of collection
of any such Imposition, so as to affect the interests of Mortgagee,
then, and in such event, Mortgagor shall bear and promptly pay the
full amount of such Imposition or any substituted tax;
provided , however , that, if for any reason payment
thereof by Mortgagor would be unlawful or unenforceable, or if
payment thereof by Mortgagor would constitute usury or would render
the Loan or the Indebtedness wholly or partially usurious under any
of the terms or provisions of the Note or of this Mortgage, or
otherwise, Mortgagee may declare the whole sum secured by this
Mortgage, with interest thereon, to be immediately due and payable.
Mortgagor shall not suffer to exist and shall promptly pay and
discharge any mechanic’s, statutory or other lien or
encumbrance on the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof
(hereinafter referred to as “ Liens ”), except
for Permitted Encumbrances.
(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing,
Mortgagor shall not be in default hereunder in respect to the
payment of any Impositions or Liens which Mortgagor shall be
required by any provision hereof to pay, so long as Mortgagor
shall, in good faith, in compliance with all applicable statutes,
and with all possible promptness, diligently contest the same, and
Mortgagor may postpone or defer payment of a portion of said
Impositions or Liens, if, but only if, permitted by statute, and if
neither the Mortgaged Property, nor any portion thereof, would, by
reason of such postponement or deferment, be in danger of being
forfeited or lost. Upon a final adjudication of any such contest,
and, in any event, at least thirty (30) days prior to the date on
which the interest of Mortgagee in the Mortgaged Property would
otherwise forfeit by reason of the nonpayment of any such
Imposition or Lien, Mortgagor shall pay the amount thereof then
due, including any penalties and interest thereon.
(c) As soon as reasonably
practicable following the recording of this Mortgage, Mortgagor
shall deliver or cause to be delivered to Mortgagee a title report
showing the recordation of the Existing Mortgage Assignment and
this Mortgage. In the event any lien, encumbrance or other matter
objectionable to Mortgagee is disclosed by such title report, other
than the Permitted Encumbrances, Mortgagor shall bond over or
otherwise have removed any such lien or encumbrance within thirty
(30) days of the imposition thereof, to the satisfaction of
10
Mortgagee, unless Mortgagor is contesting
such lien or encumbrance in accordance with Section 1.10(b)
hereof.
1.11 Insurance; Casualty or
Other Loss . Mortgagor will keep the Improvements on the
Mortgaged Property insured against loss by fire or other casualty,
and shall maintain liability insurance, with Mortgagee named as an
additional insured, under policies of insurance, with coverages, as
reasonably determined by Mortgagor to be consistent with the types
and amount of insurance maintained by reasonably prudent owners of
property similar to the Mortgaged Property in the Greater New York
Metropolitan Area and available at commercially reasonable rates.
Mortgagor shall timely pay the premiums on all such insurance. In
the event of casualty or other loss, Mortgagor shall immediately
give written notice thereof to Mortgagee. All proceeds of casualty
insurance shall be paid to Mortgagor and applied, after application
to Mortgagor’s costs of collection to payment of any costs of
restoration and repair incurred by Mortgagor or in such other
manner as Mortgagor shall determine.

1.14 Cure of Defaults
by Mortgagee . If an Event of Default occurs and Mortgagor
shall fail to observe, comply with or perform any of the terms,
covenants and conditions herein with respect to the procuring and
delivery of insurance, the payment of Impositions, ground rent or
Liens, the keeping of the Mortgaged Property in repair, the
performance of Mortgagor’s obligations under any other term,
covenant or condition contained herein, in the Note, in the Loan
Agreement or in any other Loan Document, Mortgagee may itself,
following reasonable notice to and cure periods for Mortgagor,
observe, comply with or perform the same, may make such advances to
observe, comply with or perform the same as Mortgagee shall deem
appropriate, and may enter the Mortgaged Property for the purpose
of observing, complying with or performing any such term, covenant
or condition. Mortgagee may expend such sums, including
attorneys’ fees (prior to trial, at trial and on appeal), to
sustain the lien of this Mortgage or its priority, or to protect or
enforce, or to obtain the right to enforce, its rights, powers and
remedies hereunder, including the payment of any prior liens,
ground rent, claims and encumbrances, other than Permitted
Encumbrances which are not in default, or to protect the Mortgaged
Property, as it may deem desirable. Mortgagor agrees to repay all
sums so advanced or expended upon demand, with interest thereon at
the Default Rate from the date of advancement or expenditure, and
all sums so advanced or expended, with interest, shall be secured
hereby, but no such advance or expenditure shall be deemed to
relieve Mortgagor from any default hereunder. Mortgagee shall not
be bound to inquire into the validity of any Imposition or Lien
which Mortgagor fails to pay as and when required hereby and which
Mortgagor does not contest in strict accordance with the terms
hereof.
1.15 Sale, Transfer or
Encumbrance . Except for Permitted Encumbrances and
Permitted Transfers (as defined in the Loan Agreement), without the
prior written consent of Mortgagee, Mortgagor shall not voluntarily
or involuntarily agree to, cause, suffer or permit any sale,
conveyance, mortgage, grant, lien, encumbrance, security interest,
pledge, assignment or transfer of: (a) the Mortgaged Property or
any part or portion thereof, or any interest of Mortgagor, legal or
equitable, in the Mortgaged Property, except as created by this
Mortgage and
11
the other documents which secure the
Note; or (b) any direct ownership interest, in Mortgagor; provided,
however, this subsection shall not be applicable to the extent
liens are being contested in accordance herewith. If Mortgagor
fails to comply with the provisions of this Section 1.15 ,
Mortgagee may, at its election, declare the entire Indebtedness to
be immediately due and payable, without notice to Mortgagor (which
notice Mortgagor hereby expressly waives), and upon such
declaration the entire Indebtedness shall be immediately due and
payable.
No transfer, conveyance, lease,
sale or other disposition shall relieve Mortgagor from personal
liability for its obligations hereunder or under the Note, whether
or not the transferee assumes this Mortgage. Mortgagee may, without
notice to Mortgagor, deal with any successor owner of all or any
portion of the Mortgaged Property in the same manner as with
Mortgagor, without in any way discharging the liability of
Mortgagor hereunder or under the Note.
1.16 Assignment of Leases
and Rents . (a) As a source of future repayment of the
Indebtedness, Mortgagor hereby absolutely and presently assigns to
Mortgagee all Rents (hereinafter defined) and hereby collaterally
assigns to Mortgagee all of Mortgagor’s rights in and
interest as landlord under the Leases (subject to the appointment
of Mortgagor as agent for Mortgagee and the license granted to
Mortgagor as set forth below); together with the immediate and
continuing right to collect and receive all of the Rents now due or
which may become due or to which Mortgagor may now or shall
hereafter (including the period of redemption, if any) become
entitled or may demand or claim, arising or issuing from or out of
the Leases or from or out of the Mortgaged Property or any part
thereof. It
