owing
with respect to the Leases or the use or occupancy of the Property.
This
collateral assignment shall be absolute and effective immediately,
but
the Mortgagor shall have a license, revocable by the Bank, to
continue to
collect rents owing under the Leases until an Event of Default
(as
hereinafter defined) occurs and the Bank exercises its rights
and
remedies to collect such rents as set forth herein.
1 .4 Conditions to Grant. The Bank shall have and hold
the above
granted Property unto and to the use and benefit of the Bank, and
its
successors and assigns, forever; provided, however, the
conveyances,

express
condition that, if Mortgagor shall irrevocably pay and perform

this
Mortgage, shall pay and perform all other Obligations as set forth
in
this Mortgage and shall abide by and comply with each and every
covenant
and condition set forth herein and in the Loan Documents, the
conveyances, grants and assignments contained in this Mortgage
shall be
appropriately released and discharged.
1.5 Property. The term "Property," as used in this
Mortgage, shall mean
that certain parcel of land and the fixtures, structures and
improvements
and all personal property constituting fixtures, as that term is
defined
in the Uniform Commercial Code, now or hereafter thereon located at
the
Address(es), as more particularly described herein, together with:
(i)
all rights now or hereafter existing, belonging, pertaining or
appurtenant thereto; (ii) all judgments, awards of damages and

relating to
the Property, including, without limitation, rents, issues and
profits,
or the use or occupancy thereof together with any extensions and
renewals
thereof, specifically excluding all duties or obligations of
the
Mortgagor of any kind arising thereunder (the "Leases"); and (iv)
all
contracts, permits and licenses respecting the use, operation
or
maintenance of the Property.
1 .6 Obligations. The term "Obligation(s)," as used in
this Mortgage,
shall mean without limitation all loans, advances, indebtedness,
notes,
liabilities, rate swap transactions, basis swaps, forward rate
transactions, commodity swaps, commodity options, equity or equity

swaps, equity or equity index options, bond options, interest
rate
options, foreign exchange transactions, cap transactions, floor
transactions, collar transactions, forward transactions, currency

transactions, cross-currency rate swap transactions, currency
options and
amounts, liquidated or unliquidated, now or hereafter owing by
the
Mortgagor to the Bank or any Bank Affiliate at any time, of each
and
every kind, nature and description, whether arising under this
Mortgage
or otherwise, and whether secured or unsecured, direct or indirect
(that
is, whether the same are due directly by the Mortgagor to the Bank
or any
Bank Affiliate; or are due indirectly by the Mortgagor to the Bank
or any
Bank Affiliate as endorser, guarantor or other surety, or as
obligor of
obligations due third persons which have been endorsed or assigned
to the
Bank or any Bank Affiliate, or otherwise), absolute or contingent,
due or
to become due, now existing or hereafter contracted, including,
without
limitation, payment of all amounts outstanding when due pursuant to
the
terms of any of the Loan Documents. Said term shall also include
all
interest and other charges chargeable to the Mortgagor or due from
the
Mortgagor to the Bank or any Bank Affiliate from time to time and
all
advances, costs and expenses referred to in this Mortgage,
including
without limitation the costs and expenses (including reasonable
attorney's fees) of enforcement of the Bank's rights hereunder
or
pursuant to any document or instrument executed in connection
herewith.
1 .7 Swap Agreement. The parties hereto agree that all
sums that may or
shall become due and payable by the Mortgagor to the Mortgagee
in
accordance with any swap agreement, whether or not such swap
agreement is
directly between the Mortgagor and the Mortgagee or between the
Mortgagor
and Mortgagee's affiliates, assignors or assignees shall be
evidenced by
the Note, shall be secured by this Mortgage and shall constitute
part of
the Obligations. The lien of this Mortgage insofar as it secured
payment
of sums that may or shall become due and payable by the Mortgagor
to the
Mortgagee in accordance with the swap agreement is and shall
continue to
be equal in priority to the lien of this Mortgage insofar as it
secures
payment of the balance of the Obligations. The parties hereto agree
that,
if the Note shall be declared to be immediately due and payable as
the
result of an occurrence of an Event of Default or if the Note is
not paid
in full at maturity, then all sums that become available to the
Mortgagee
as a result of the foreclosure of this Mortgage shall not be
applied to
sums due under the swap agreement until such time as the balance of
the
Obligations have been paid in full.
1.8 Cross-Collateral and Future Advances. It is the
express intention
of the Mortgagor that this Mortgage secure payment and performance
of all
of the Obligations, whether now existing or hereinafter incurred
by
reason of future advances by the Bank or otherwise, and regardless
of
whether such Obligations are or were contemplated by the parties at
the
time of the granting of this Mortgage. Notice of the continuing
grant of
this Mortgage shall not be required to be stated on the face of
any
document evidencing any of the Obligations, nor shall such
documents be
required to otherwise specify that they are secured
hereby.

hereby
constitutes the Bank its attorney-in-fact to execute and file all

title to the Property and the Bank's interest therein against the
claims
of all persons and, unless the Bank requests otherwise, to appear
in and
diligently contest, at the Mortgagor's sole cost and expense, any
action
or proceeding that purports to affect the Mortgagor's title to
the
Property or the priority or validity of this Mortgage or the
Bank's
interest hereunder.
2.4 Operation of Property. The Mortgagor covenants and
agrees as

(a) The Mortgagor will not permit the Property to be used for

other
approvals relating to the Mortgagor, the Property or the use

ordinance or regulation by the Mortgagor or relating to the
Property,
(ii) receipt of notice from any Federal, state or local
authority
alleging any such violation and (iii) the presence or release on

(b) The Mortgagor will at all times keep the Property insured for

(iii)
comprehensive commercial general liability insurance; (iv) rent

notice to the Bank. Such policies shall include (i) a mortgage
endorsement determined by the Bank in good faith to be equivalent
to the
"standard" mortgage endorsement so that the insurance, as to the
interest
of the Bank, shall not be invalidated by any act or neglect of
the
Mortgagor or the owner of the Property, any foreclosure or
other
proceedings or notice of sale relating to the Property, any change
in the
title to or ownership of the Property, or the occupation or use of
the
Property for purposes more hazardous than are permitted at the date
of
inception of such insurance policies; (ii) a replacement cost
endorsement; (iii) an agreed amount endorsement; (iv) a
contingent
liability from operation endorsement; and (v) such other

a
policy does contain a coinsurance provision, the Mortgagor shall
insure
the Property in an amount sufficient to prevent the application of
the
coinsurance provisions;
(c) Mortgagor will not enter into or modify the Leases in any
material
respect without the prior written consent of the Bank, execute
any
assignment of the Leases except in favor of the Bank, or accept
any
rentals under any Lease for more than one month in advance and will
at
all times perform and fulfill every term and condition of the
Leases;
(d) Mortgagor will at all times (i) maintain complete and
accurate
records and books regarding the Property in accordance with
generally
accepted accounting principles and (ii) permit the Bank and the

Bank may request, to enter and inspect the Property and such books
and
records; and

first-rate
repair and condition (damage from casualty not excepted) and will
not
commit or permit any strip, waste, impairment, deterioration or
alteration of the Property or any part thereof.

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 the Property,

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
