(A) Upon the occurrence and continuance of any Event of Default, the Bank may proceed forthwith to protect and enforce its rights under this Mortgage and the other Financing Documents by such suits, actions or proceedings as the Bank shall deem appropriate, including, without limitation, an action to foreclose the Lien of this Mortgage, against all or, from time to time, against any part of the interest of the Issuer and the Company in the Mortgaged Property and to have the same sold under the judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction to the highest bidder, at public or private sale for cash or credit in one or more interests and in any order or manner, subject to statutory and other legal requirements, if any, including all right, title and interest, claim and demand therein and thereto and all right of redemption thereof and further including the right to sell same and all estate, claim, demand, right, title and interest of the Issuer and the Company therein and rights of redemption thereof, pursuant to power of sale or otherwise. Without limiting any other rights of the Bank, hereunder or otherwise granted, upon default of this Mortgage, or the indebtedness or other obligation secured thereby, the Bank shall have the right to sell the Mortgaged Property in the manner prescribed in Article 14 of the New York Real Property Actions and Proceeding Law, or any successors or companion statute, law or promulgation, for a non-judicial proceeding for foreclosure by power of sale. (B) The Bank may sue for, enforce payment of and receive any amounts due or becoming due from the Company for principal, premium, interest or otherwise under any of the provisions of this Mortgage or the other Financing Documents, without prejudice to any other right or remedy of the Bank. (C) Regardless of the happening of an Event of Default, the Bank may institute and maintain such suits and proceedings as the Bank may be advised shall be necessary or expedient to prevent any impairment of the security under this Mortgage by any acts which may be unlawful or in violation of this Mortgage, or to preserve or protect the interests of the Bank. (D) The Bank shall have the right to appear in and defend any action or preceding brought with respect to the Mortgaged Property and to bring any action or proceeding, in the name and on behalf of the Issuer or the Company, which the Bank, in its discretion, feels should be brought to protect its interests in the Mortgaged Property. (E) Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default hereunder, the Company, upon demand of the Bank, shall forthwith surrender the possession of, and it shall be lawful for the Bank, by such officer or agent as it may appoint, to take possession of, all or any part of the Mortgaged Property, together with the books, papers and accounts of the Company pertaining thereto, and to hold, operate and manage the same, and from time to time to make all needed 42 repairs and improvements as the Bank shall deem wise; and the Bank may sell the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof, or lease the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof in the name and for the account of the Issuer or the Company, collect, receive and sequester the rents, revenues, earnings, income, products and profits therefrom, and pay out of the same all proper costs and expenses of taking, holding, leasing, selling and managing the Mortgaged Property, including reasonable compensation to the Bank and its agents and counsel, and any charges of the Bank hereunder, and any taxes and other charges prior to the Lien of this Mortgage which the Bank may deem it wise to pay, and all expenses of such repairs and improvements, and apply the remainder of the moneys so received in accordance with the provisions of Section 6.05 hereof. To the extent permitted by law, notwithstanding anything herein contained to the contrary, the Issuer and the Company and anyone claiming through or under the Issuer or the Company (1) will not (a) at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatever claim or take any benefit or advantage of any stay or extension or moratorium law, any exemption from execution or sale of the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof, wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, which may affect the covenants and terms of performance of this Mortgage, (b) claim, take or insist upon any benefit or advantage of any law now or hereafter in force providing for the valuation or appraisal of the Mortgaged Property, or any part thereof, prior to any sale or sales thereof which may be made pursuant to any provision hereof, or pursuant to the decree, judgment or order of any court of competent jurisdiction, or (c) after any such sale or sales, claim or exercise any right under any statute heretofore or hereafter enacted to redeem the Property so sold or any part thereof, (2) hereby expressly waive all benefit or advantage of any such law or laws, and (3) covenant not to hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted or delegated to the Bank, but to suffer and permit the execution of every power as though no such law or laws had been made or enacted. The Company and the Issuer, for themselves and all who may claim under them, waive, to the extent they lawfully may, all rights to the Mortgaged Property marshaled upon any foreclosure hereof. (F) The Bank may exercise any and/or all of the rights and remedies available to a secured party under the New York Uniform Commercial Code in such order and in such manner as the Bank, in its sole discretion, may determine; provided, however, that the expenses of retaking, holding, preparing for sale or the like as provided thereunder shall include reasonable attorney's fees and other actual expenses of the Bank and shall be additionally secured by this Mortgage. SECTION 6.04. APPOINTMENT OF RECEIVERS. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default hereunder, the Bank shall be entitled, as a matter of right, without notice and without regard to the adequacy of any security for the debt secured hereby, to the appointment of a receiver or receivers of the Mortgaged Property and of the revenues and receipts thereof, pending the conclusion of such proceedings and any appeal therefrom, with such powers as the court making such appointment shall confer. The Receiver shall be entitled to occupational rent from an owner/occupant and may upon non-payment of said rent evict the owner/occupant. 43 SECTION 6.05. APPLICATION OF MONEYS. The Net Proceeds received by the Bank pursuant to any right given or action taken under the provisions of this Article VI shall be applied by the Bank in accordance with Section 609 of the Indenture. SECTION 6.06. REMEDIES CUMULATIVE. No remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Bank is intended to be exclusive of any other available remedy, but each and every such remedy shall be cumulative and in addition to every other remedy given under this Mortgage or under any other Financing Document or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity. No delay or omission to exercise any right or power accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair any such right or power, or shall be construed to be a waiver thereof or an acquiescence therein, and every right or remedy given by this Mortgage to the Bank may be exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient. In order to entitle the Bank to exercise any remedy reserved to it in this Article VI, it shall not be necessary to give any notice, other than such notice as may be expressly required in this Mortgage. SECTION 6.07. TERMINATION OF PROCEEDINGS. In case any proceeding taken by the Bank on account of any Event of Default shall have been discontinued or abandoned for any reason or shall have been determined adversely to the Bank, then the Issuer, the Bank and the Company shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder, and all rights, remedies and powers of the Bank shall continue as if no such proceeding had been taken. SECTION 6.08. WAIVER AND NON-WAIVER OF EVENT OF DEFAULT. (A) The Bank may, in its discretion, in writing, agree to waive any Event of Default hereunder and its consequences and annul any acceleration in accordance with Section 6.02 hereof. No such waiver shall extend to or affect any other existing or any subsequent Event of Default. (B) The failure of the Bank to insist upon strict performance of any term hereof shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any term of this Mortgage. Neither the Issuer nor the Company shall be relieved of its respective obligations hereunder by reason of (1) failure of the Bank to comply with any request of the Company to take any action to foreclose this Mortgage or otherwise enforce any of the provisions hereof, (2) the release, regardless of consideration, of the whole or any part of the Mortgaged Property, or (3) any agreement or stipulation by the Bank extending the time of payment or otherwise modifying or supplementing the terms of this Mortgage or any of the other Financing Documents. The Bank may resort for the payment of the Mortgage Indebtedness to any other security held by the Bank pursuant to the Financing Documents in such order and manner as the Bank, in its discretion, may elect. The Bank may take action to recover the Mortgage Indebtedness, or any portion thereof, or to enforce any covenant hereof without prejudice to the right of the Bank thereafter to foreclose this Mortgage. The rights of the Bank under this Mortgage shall be separate, distinct and cumulative and none shall be given effect to the exclusion of the others. No act of the Bank shall be construed as an election to proceed under any one provision herein to the exclusion of any other provision. No 44 waiver of any right of the Bank shall be effective unless it is in a writing signed by an officer of the Bank. SECTION 6.09. REPAYMENT AND SECURING OF EXPENSES PAID BY THE BANK. In the event the Bank shall pay any premiums on any policies of insurance required to be maintained or procured by Section 4.02 hereof, or in the event the Bank shall expend any funds for the payment of any unpaid taxes or assessments upon the Mortgaged Property, or pay or perform any other obligation of either the Issuer or the Company under any of the Financing Documents, then in any such event such payment shall be deemed to be secured by this Mortgage and shall be payable to the Bank in the manner provided and with interest as provided herein, or if not so provided herein, shall be payable on demand with interest at the Default Interest Rate. SECTION 6.10. REPAYMENT AND SECURING OF COLLECTION COSTS INCURRED BY THE BANK. (A) In the event this Mortgage or the Bonds or any of the other Financing Documents or all of the foregoing are placed in the hands of an attorney (1) for collection of any sum payable hereunder or thereunder, (2) for the foreclosure of this Mortgage, or (3) for the enforcement of any of the terms, conditions and obligations of this Mortgage or any of the Financing Documents, the Company agrees to pay all costs of collection (including reasonable counsel fees and expenses) incurred by the Bank, together with interest thereon at the Default Interest Rate. All such costs as incurred shall be deemed to be secured by this Mortgage and collectible out of the proceeds of this Mortgage in any manner permitted by law or by this Mortgage. (B) In addition to and not in limitation of the foregoing, in any action or proceeding to foreclose this Mortgage, or to recover or collect the debt secured hereby, the provisions of law respecting the recovery of costs, disbursements and allowances shall also apply. The reasonable expenses of pursuing, searching for, retaking, receiving, holding, storing, safe-guarding, any environmental testing and cleanup, insuring, accounting for, advertising, preparing for sale or lease, selling, leasing and the like, plus attorney's fees, fees for certified public accountants, fees for auctioneers, fees for brokers and/or appraisers, fees for security guards, fees for environmental auditors and engineers, fees for hazard insurance premiums, or any other reasonable costs or disbursements whatsoever incurred by or contracted for by the Bank in connection with the disposition of the Mortgaged Property (including any of the foregoing incurred or contracted for by the Bank in connection with any bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings involving the Issuer or the Company) shall all be chargeable to the Issuer and the Company and shall be secured by this Mortgage, and the Issuer and the Company will also be responsible for any deficiency (but, in the case of the Issuer, only to the extent set forth in Section 7.10 hereof). SECTION 6.11. OTHER ACTIONS BY THE HOLDER. Regardless of the happening of the Event of Default, the Bank may institute and maintain such suits and proceedings as it shall deem necessary or expedient to prevent any impairment of the security under this Mortgage by 45 any acts which may be unlawful or in violation of this Mortgage, or to preserve or protect the interests of the Bank. SECTION 6.12. SALE IN ONE PARCEL. In case of a sale, the Project Facility may be sold in one parcel. Should the Project Facility consists of more than one parcel, in the even of a foreclosure of this Mortgage or any mortgage at any time consolidated with this Mortgage, the Company and the Issuer agree that the Bank shall be entitled to a judgment directing the referee appointed in the foreclosure proceeding to sell all of the parcels constituting the Project Facility at one foreclosure sale, either as a group or separately and that the Company and the Issuer expressly waive any right that each may now have or hereafter acquire to (i) request or require that the parcels be sold separately or (ii) request, if the Bank has elected to sell parcels separately, that there be a determination of any deficiency amount after any such separate sale or otherwise require a calculation of whether said parcel or parcels separately sold were conveyed for their "fair market value".

(C) No order or decree of specific performance with respect to any of the obligations of the Issuer hereunder or thereunder shall be sought or enforced against the Issuer unless (1) the party seeking such order or decree shall first have requested the Issuer in writing to take the action sought in such order or decree of specific performance, and ten (10) days shall have elapsed from the date of receipt of such request, and the Issuer shall have refused to comply with such request (or, if compliance therewith would reasonably be expected to take longer than ten [10] days, shall have failed to institute and diligently pursue action to cause compliance with such request) or failed to respond within such notice period, (2) if the Issuer refuses to comply with such request and the Issuer's refusal to comply is based on its reasonable expectation that it will incur fees and expenses, the party seeking such order or decree shall have placed in an account with the Issuer an amount or undertaking sufficient to cover such reasonable fees and expenses, and (3) if the Issuer refuses to comply with such request and the Issuer's refusal to comply is based on its reasonable expectation that it or any of its members, directors, officers, agents (other than the Company) or employees shall be subject to potential liability, the party seeking such order or decree shall (a) agree to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Issuer and its members, directors, officers, agents (other than the Company) and employees against any liability incurred as a result of its compliance with such demand, and (b) if requested by the Issuer, shall furnish to the Issuer satisfactory security to protect the Issuer and its members, officers, agents (other than the Company) and employees against all liability expected to be incurred as a result of compliance with such request.
