Mortgagor hereby authorizes and empowers Mortgagee, at Mortgagee’s option and at Mortgagee’s sole discretion, as attorney-in-fact for Mortgagor, to make proof of loss, to adjust and compromise any claim under any insurance policy, to appear in and prosecute any action arising from any policy, to collect and receive insurance proceeds and to deduct therefrom Mortgagee’s expenses incurred in the collection process, to endorse any checks, drafts or other instruments representing any proceeds of such insurance, whether payable by reason of loss thereunder or otherwise, and to make any election required or permitted under any insurance policy relating to repair or restoration; provided, however, so long as no Default Condition exists, Mortgagee shall not exercise such power of attorney unless and until three (3) months have elapsed from the date of such loss without settlement having been made. So long as no Default Condition exists, Mortgagee shall disburse any Rents and Continuing Expenses received under any insurance policy to Mortgagor. Mortgagee shall make the Net Proceeds available for the repair and restoration of the Improvements, provided that (i) no Default Condition shall exist, (ii) Mortgagor shall proceed with the repair and restoration of the Improvements as nearly as reasonably possible to the condition the Improvements were in immediately prior to such fire or other casualty promptly after the insurance claims are settled, (iii) no Lease shall be terminated as a result of such fire, (iv) Mortgagee shall be reasonably satisfied that upon the completion of such repair and restoration the gross cash flow and the net cash flow of the Mortgaged Property will be restored to a level at least equal to the level the same were at prior to the date of such fire or other casualty and (v) the estimated cost of repair, restoration, rebuilding or replacement (hereinafter, collectively, the “Cost to Repair”) does not exceed $500,000.00. If the Cost to Repair is greater than $500,000.00 but does not exceed $1,000,000.00, provided the conditions set forth in (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) above have been satisfied, Mortgagee shall release so much of the Net Proceeds as may be required to pay for the actual Cost to Repair directly to the Mortgagor in accordance with the provisions of this Section 5.3.9. If the Cost to Repair is greater than or equal to $1,000,000.00 or if the casualty occurs within one hundred and eighty

(180) days of the Maturity Date (as such term is defined in the Note) the Mortgagee, in its sole and absolute discretion, may either apply the proceeds of insurance to reduce the Mortgagor’s Obligations or, provided the conditions set forth in (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) above have been satisfied, release so much of the Net Proceeds as may be required to pay for the actual Cost of the repair work to repair, restore, rebuild or replace the Improvements (collectively, the “Repair Work”) directly to the Mortgagor in accordance with the provisions of this Section 5.3.9.
               (b) Upon satisfaction of the provisions of the preceding paragraph (a), the Net Proceeds will be disbursed by Mortgagee to Mortgagor to pay for the costs of the Repair Work. The Net Proceeds shall be held by Mortgagee in escrow until expended in connection with the Repair Work, it being agreed that any Net Proceeds so held by Mortgagee may be commingled with the general funds of Mortgagee, shall bear interest at such rate as reasonably determined by Mortgagee, and shall constitute additional security for the payment of the Obligations. The Net Proceeds shall be paid by Mortgagee to, or as directed by, Mortgagor from time to time during the course of the Repair Work upon satisfaction of the following conditions: (i) all plans, specifications, costs estimates, contracts and bonds, if any, for the Repair Work, have been obtained and are satisfactory to Mortgagee in its commercially reasonable discretion and (ii) Mortgagee has received satisfactory evidence that: (x) all materials installed and work and labor performed (except to the extent that they are to be paid for out of the requested payment) in connection with the repair and restoration have been paid for in full, (y) there exists no notices of intention, mechanics or other liens and encumbrances on the Mortgaged Property arising out of the Repair Work, and (z) the balance of the Net Proceeds plus the balance of any deficiency deposits made by Mortgagor pursuant to the provisions of this paragraph hereinafter set forth shall be sufficient to pay in full the balance of the cost of the Repair Work. The Repair Work shall be done and completed by Mortgagor in an expeditious and diligent fashion and in compliance with all applicable laws, rules and regulations, and all plans and specifications required in connection with the repair and restoration shall be subject to the prior review and approval in all respects by an independent inspecting engineer selected by Mortgagor and reasonably acceptable to Mortgagee (the “Inspecting Engineer”). All costs and expenses incurred by Mortgagee in connection with making the Net Proceeds available for the Repair Work, including, without limitation, counsel fees and disbursements and the Inspecting Engineer’s fees incurred by Mortgagee, shall be paid by Mortgagor. In no event shall Mortgagee be obligated to make disbursements of the Net Proceeds in excess of an amount equal to the value of the work in place as part of the repair and restoration, as certified by the Inspecting Engineer, minus 10% of such costs (such 10% being hereinafter referred to as the “Retainage”). Once fifty percent (50%) of the Repair Work has been completed, the Retainage shall be reduced to 5%. Mortgagee shall not be obligated to make disbursements of the Net Proceeds more than once every thirty (30) days. If the Cost to Repair does not exceed $500,000.00, only one disbursement of the Net Proceeds shall be made by Mortgagee, which disbursement shall be made upon certification by the Inspecting Engineer that the Repair Work has been completed in accordance with the provisions of this paragraph, and upon receipt by Mortgagee of evidence satisfactory to Mortgagee that the costs of the repair and restoration have been paid in full or will be paid in full out of such disbursement. The Retainage shall not be released until the Inspecting Engineer certifies that the repair and restoration have been completed in accordance with the provisions of this paragraph, and Mortgagee receives evidence satisfactory to Mortgagee that the costs of the repair and restoration have been paid in full or will be paid in full out of the

14


 
Retainage. The excess, if any, of the Net Proceeds after the completion of the Repair Work and the payment in full of all costs incurred in connection therewith shall be applied by Mortgagee in reduction of the Obligations in such priority and proportions as Mortgagee in its commercially reasonable discretion shall deem proper. If at any time the Net Proceeds, or the undisbursed balance thereof, shall not, in the commercially reasonable opinion of Mortgagee, be sufficient to pay in full the balance of the costs which will be incurred in connection with the completion of the Repair Work, Mortgagor shall deposit the deficiency with Mortgagee before any further disbursement of the Net Proceeds shall be made, which deficiency deposit may be commingled with the general funds of Mortgagee, shall bear interest at such rate as reasonably determined by Mortgagee and shall be disbursed for costs actually incurred in connection with the Repair Work on the same conditions applicable to the Net Proceeds. Any such deficiency deposit, until disbursed pursuant to this paragraph, shall constitute additional security for the payment of the Obligations. The balance, if any, of any such deficiency deposit remaining after the Inspecting Engineer certifies that the Repair Work has been completed in accordance with the provisions of this paragraph and the receipt by Mortgagee of evidence satisfactory to Mortgagee that all costs incurred in connection with the Repair Work have been paid in full shall be returned by Mortgagee to Mortgagor. All costs of the Repair Work in excess of the Net Proceeds shall be paid for by Mortgagor. If Mortgagee shall receive and retain such Net Proceeds, the lien of this Mortgage shall be reduced only by the amount thereof received and retained by Mortgagee and actually applied by Mortgagee in reduction of the Obligations. Mortgagee shall not be obligated to see to the proper application of insurance money paid over to Mortgagor, and if Mortgagee receives and retains any Net Proceeds, the lien of this Mortgage shall be affected only by a reduction of the amount of said lien by the amount of such insurance money so received and retained by Mortgagee. Nevertheless, if prior to the receipt by Mortgagee of any insurance proceeds, the Mortgaged Property shall have been sold on foreclosure of this Mortgage, as between Mortgagor and Mortgagee, Mortgagee shall have the right to receive said insurance proceeds, and Mortgagor shall pay over to Mortgagee said insurance proceeds as, if and when Mortgagor receives same, to the extent of (i) any deficiency found to be due upon such sale, with legal interest thereon, whether or not a deficiency judgment on this Mortgage shall have been sought or recovered, and (ii) of the attorneys’ fees, costs and disbursements incurred by Mortgagee in connection with the collection of such insurance proceeds. Mortgagor will not permit any condition to exist on the Mortgaged Property that would wholly or partially invalidate the insurance policies.
          5.3.9 If Mortgagee shall by any manner acquire title to the Mortgaged Property, it shall thereupon become the sole and absolute owner of all insurance policies held by or required hereunder to be delivered to Mortgagee, with the sole right to collect and retain all unearned premiums and dividends thereon, and Mortgagor shall only be entitled to a credit, in reduction of the then outstanding indebtedness secured hereby, in the amount of the short rate cancellation refund. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event of foreclosure of this Mortgage or any transfer of title to the Mortgaged Property to a third-party purchaser pursuant to the power(s) in this Mortgage granted Mortgagee, Mortgagee shall be and is hereby authorized and empowered, for and in the name or names and on behalf of Mortgagor and/or Mortgagee, and for the purposes hereinafter set forth, shall be and is hereby made, constituted and appointed the true and lawful attorney-in-fact of Mortgagor (with full power of substitution and revocation) in the name place and stead of Mortgagor, and in the sole and uncontrolled

15


 
discretion of said attorney, to surrender up the policies of insurance covering the Mortgaged Property and any part thereof and to collect any amounts due thereunder or, at its option, to transfer all right, title and interest in and to said policies and the proceeds thereof to any purchaser of the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof without obligation to account therefor to any person claiming title to the Mortgaged Property; provided , however , that any amounts received by Mortgagee under said policies by way of refunds, dividends or otherwise, as aforesaid, shall be applied to the payment of the Obligations, and any surplus shall be paid over as a surplus on foreclosure. The foregoing appointment being coupled with an interest is irrevocable. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Mortgagee shall have no obligation to disburse any funds to Mortgagor and all monies held by Mortgagee may be applied toward satisfaction of the Obligations. Notwitstanding the foregoing, this Section 5.39 shall not apply with respect to any blanket insurance policies of Mortgagor which do not relate solely to the Mortgaged Property. The provisions of Subsection 4 of Section 254 of the Real Property Law of New York covering the insurance of buildings against loss by fire shall not apply to the terms of this Mortgage.
          5.3.10 Mortgagee consents to Mortgagor providing the insurance coverage required under this Section 5.3 by causing one or more tenants leasing the entire or a portion of the Mortgaged Property to provide such insurance in the same form and amounts as set forth in this Section 5.3.
     5.4. Payment of Taxes and Liens .
          5.4.1 Mortgagor shall pay, when due, all Impositions and shall furnish to Mortgagee, promptly after payment of the same, certificates, receipts or other evidence reasonably satisfactory to Mortgagee of such payment; provided, however, Mortgagor shall not be required to pay and discharge any such Imposition, if and so long as (a) the validity thereof shall be contested by Mortgagor with diligence and in good faith by appropriate proceedings and (b) Mortgagor shall have deposited with Mortgagee a sum equal to the amount being so contested and any additional charge, penalty or expense which may be incurred as a result of such contest; and provided further, however, that any such Imposition and any such additional charge, penalty or expense shall be paid in full before the Mortgaged Property, or any part thereof, shall be seized and sold in satisfaction thereof.
          5.4.2 Mortgagor shall pay, when the same shall become due and payable, all claims and demands of mechanics, materialmen, laborers and others which, if unpaid, might result in or permit the creation of a lien on the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof, provided, however, Mortgagor shall not be required to pay any such claim or demand, if and so long as (a) the validity thereof shall be contested by Mortgagor with diligence and in good faith by appropriate proceedings and (b) in the event that such claim or demand results in a lien or notice of record against the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof, Mortgagor shall have bonded or otherwise caused such lien to be removed or discharged.
          5.4.3 Mortgagor shall pay to Mortgagee, within thirty (30) days after Mortgagee’s demand, an amount equal to any and all taxes, assessments or charges of whatever nature which may at any time be assessed against Mortgagee with respect to the Note or this Mortgage or its ownership or holding thereof, whether under statutes now or hereafter in effect.

16


 
In the event any such tax, assessment or charge is not or, under applicable law, cannot be so paid by Mortgagor, at the option of Mortgagee, the Obligations shall become immediately due and payable.
     5.5. Insurance and Tax Deposits .
     Mortgagee, at any time if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or if Mortgagor has failed to pay the Impositions for the immediately preceding due date, upon ten (10) days notice to Mortgagor, may require Mortgagor to pay to Mortgagee, on the first day of each calendar month, a sum equal to (a) one-twelfth (1/12) of the Impositions and (b) one-twelfth (1/12) of the annual premiums for the insurance required hereunder to be maintained on the Mortgaged Property, the respective amounts of such Impositions and premiums to be reasonably estimated from time to time by Mortgagee. Mortgagee shall apply the Deposited Funds to the payment of such Impositions and premiums and shall render an annual accounting to Mortgagor of all disbursements of the Deposited Funds. Although each such monthly payment of Deposited Funds are to be in a lump sum, each component thereof shall be deemed to be held separately by Mortgagor for, and shall be applied only to, the particular item for which payment was made by Mortgagor, unless Mortgagee, in its discretion, elects otherwise. If at any time Mortgagee estimates that there shall or will not be on deposit with it, at least one (1) month prior to the due date (a) of any item constituting part of the Impositions and/or (b) of any annual insurance premium, a sum sufficient for the payment of such item and/or premium in full, Mortgagor, upon demand, shall pay the amount of such deficiency to Mortgagee notwithstanding that there may already be deposited with Mortgagee sums for the payment of other items which are not yet due. If the amount of the Deposited Funds shall exceed the amount necessary to pay such Impositions and premiums for the then current year, such excess shall be credited against future monthly deposits required hereunder. Unless otherwise required by applicable law, no interest shall be paid on the Deposited Funds, and the Deposited Funds may be commingled with Mortgagee’s general funds. Upon payment and other satisfaction in full of the Obligations, any excess Deposited Funds shall be refunded to Mortgagor. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, Mortgagee may apply against the Obligations, in such manner as Mortgagee may determine, any or all of the Deposited Funds then held by Mortgagee.
     5.6. Maintenance and Inspections .
          5.6.1 Mortgagor shall at all times keep and maintain the Mortgaged Property and each part thereof in sound condition and in a first-class state of decoration and repair.
          5.6.2 Mortgagor shall not: permit any strip or waste of the Mortgaged Property; permit the violation of any law, ordinance or rule or regulation of any Governmental Authority affecting the same or the use thereof, permit any conditions to exist which would wholly or partially invalidate any insurance on the Mortgaged Property; or do or permit anything to be done to the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof that might materially diminish the value thereof.
          5.6.3 Mortgagor shall permit Mortgagee, its officers, agents and representatives to enter upon the Mortgaged Property at all reasonable times to view and inspect the same.

17


 
          5.6.4 Mortgagor, within thirty (30) days after demand by Mortgagee (or immediately upon demand in cases which Mortgagee deems to be an emergency), shall make such repairs, replacements, renewals, or additions, or perform such items of maintenance to the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof as Mortgagee reasonably may require in order to maintain the Mortgaged Property at the standards required by this Section.
     5.7. Alterations and Additions .
     Mortgagor shall not remove or demolish any Improvements, or make any material alteration or addition to the Improvements (each an “Alteration”), including, without limitation, changes to the character, design, structure or size of the Improvements, without the prior written consent of the Mortgagee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Mortgagor shall have the right to make any Alteration with respect to the Improvements without Mortgagee’s prior written consent provided the cost of such Alteration
