The Grantor hereto hereby further covenants and agrees to:

1.           Keep all improvements erected on or to be erected on said premises insured against loss by fire or such other hazards, as the Grantee may require, including without limitation, all-risk coverage, in an amount equal to not less than the full contemplated amount of the loan or 100% of the guaranteed replacement cost without depreciation of the completed improvements, with Lender named as First Mortgagee under the Connecticut standard form of noncontributory mortgagee endorsement.  Such policy shall provide that it may not be cancelled without thirty (30) days' prior written notice to the Grantee and shall, at Grantee's option, be deposited with the Grantee and maintained in full force and effect by Grantor throughout the term of the mortgage loan.  All renewal policies, at the option of the Grantee, shall be deposited with Grantee with premiums paid by Grantor at least ten (10) days before the expiration of the old policies; and the Grantor agrees that upon failure to maintain the insurance as above stipulated, or to deliver said renewal policies if the Grantee so requires, or to pay the premiums, the Grantee, upon no less than five (5) days notice to Grantor, may effect such insurance and pay the premiums therefor, and all sums so expended shall be immediately paid by the Grantor, and unless so paid, shall be deemed part of the money secured hereby and shall bear interest at the then prevailing rate of this mortgage, and thereupon the entire principal sum unpaid, including such sums as may have been paid for premiums of insurance, as aforesaid, and any and all other sums which shall be payable hereunder shall become due and payable forthwith at the option of the Grantee, anything herein contained to the contrary notwithstanding.  In case the Grantee elects under this paragraph to advance insurance premiums, the receipt of the insurance company in which said insurance is placed shall, with respect to any such insurance premiums, be conclusive evidence of the amount and fact of payment thereof. In case of loss and payment by any insurance company, the amount of insurance money received shall be applied either on the indebtedness secured hereby, or in rebuilding and restoring the damaged property as the Grantee may elect.  The Grantor shall claim no cancellation or return of any policy or premium except from and after the satisfaction or redemption of this mortgage by the Grantor. Any policies referred to herein shall be written by companies acceptable to Grantee and licensed to do business in the State of Connecticut.

2.           Furnish the Grantee with satisfactory evidence that Grantor has in effect public liability, and property damage insurance in an amount and with an insurance company acceptable to the Grantee, which said company shall be licensed to do business in the State of Connecticut.

3.           Provide flood insurance in an amount sufficient to meet federal requirements if the premises secured herein are in an area designated by the Federal Government as being flood prone. In addition, provide demolition insurance and/or an endorsement for any contingent liability from the operation of building laws if it is found that there is an encroachment over building lines or a violation applicable to zoning regulations or if any building is determined to be non-conforming and there is any restriction imposed upon rebuilding which could legally prevent such rebuilding, in an amount sufficient in Lender's sole discretion to protect against any diminution in value as a result thereof.

 

 

4.           Furnish to the Grantee, without expense to the Grantee, financial statements, tax returns and records of the Grantor, hereby upon the reasonable request of Grantee and fiscal year end compilation statements of the Grantor prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied, satisfactory to Grantee, sufficiently detailed as the Grantee may reasonably require.  Said year-end statements shall include, without limitation, a balance sheet and an income and expense statement, shall be furnished to the Grantee within one hundred twenty (120) days after the end of each calendar or fiscal year.

14.           Refrain from obtaining additional financing on the Premises without the prior written consent of the Grantee, which consent may be unreasonably withheld.

15.           Shall keep and maintain proper and accurate books, records and accounts reflecting all items of income and expense received or paid by the Grantor or any other person in connection with the Premises and all business operations conducted at or from the Property.  The Grantee shall have the right at any time during normal business hours to examine and copy any such books, records and accounts wherever located.

The Grantor hereby authorizes and grants a power of attorney to the Grantee to endorse any checks or drafts and execute any releases as may be necessary to effectuate this clause.

 

 

18.           In the event of default by the Grantor under any encumbrance having priority over this mortgage covering the property mortgaged hereby or in the event of any proceedings brought with respect to the property, including, but not limited to code enforcement, building, housing or fire code or zoning violations, the Grantee shall have the right, but not the obligation, to cure such default and to add the cost of same, including attorney's fees, with interest at the rate provided in the note secured hereby to the mortgage debt secured herein.  In the event of any such default, the entire remaining unpaid balance secured by this mortgage shall immediately become due and payable at the option of the Grantee.

19.           This Mortgage and the Note secured hereby are to be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Connecticut.

22.           Grantor hereby grants to Grantee a security interest in all fixtures, machinery, appliances, equipment, furniture and personal property of every nature whatsoever now or hereafter owned by the Grantor and located in or on, or attached to, and used or intended to be used in connection with or with the operation of, the Land or Improvements, or in connection with any construction conducted thereon, and all extensions, accessions, additions, improvements, betterments, renewals, substitutions and replacements to any of the foregoing, and all of Grantor's contract rights in contracts and agreements now or hereafter existing with respect to the Premises, including, without limitation, Grantor's construction contracts and contracts with architects, engineers and subcontractors.  This Mortgage is a self-operative security agreement and is intended to be effective as a financing statement pursuant to the Connecticut Uniform Commercial Code, but Grantor agrees to execute and deliver on demand such other security agreements, financing statements and other instruments as Grantee may request in order to perfect its security interest or to impose the lien hereof more specifically upon any of such property.  Grantee shall have all the rights and remedies in addition to those specified herein of a secured party under the Connecticut Uniform Commercial Code.

AND IT IS MUTUALLY AGREED THAT:

1.           Any failure by the Grantee to insist upon the strict performance by the Grantor of any of the terms and provisions herein or in the Note or other documents relating to the loan or other security therefor shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any of the terms and provisions herein or therein, and the Grantee, notwithstanding any such failure, shall have the right thereafter to insist upon the strict performance by the Grantor of any and all of the terms and provisions of this Mortgage or the Note secured hereby to be performed by the Grantor.
