TO HAVE AND TO HOLD the same, together with the tenements, hereditaments and appurtenances, unto the Mortgagee, in fee simple.
 
IT IS AGREED that if any of the Mortgaged Property is of a nature so that a security interest therein can be perfected under the Uniform Commercial Code, this instrument shall constitute a Security Agreement and Mortgagor agrees to join with the Mortgagee in the execution of any financing statements and to execute any other instruments that may be required for the perfection or renewal of such security interest under the Uniform Commercial Code.
 
PROVIDED, ALWAYS, that if the Mortgagor shall pay unto the Mortgagee the sums of money set forth in the Note in accordance with the terms thereof, and shall perform, comply with and abide by each and every of the agreements, stipulations, conditions and covenants thereof, and of this Mortgage, then Mortgagee shall cause this Mortgage to be satisfied.
 
Mortgagor covenants that Mortgagor is lawfully seized of the estate hereby conveyed and has the right to mortgage, grant, and convey the Mortgaged Property, that the Mortgaged Property is unencumbered and that Mortgagor will warrant and defend generally the title to the Mortgaged Property against all claims and demands, subject to any declarations, easements, or restrictions listed in a schedule of exceptions to coverage in any title insurance policy insuring Mortgagee’s interest in the Mortgaged Property.
 
1.            PAYMENT OF PRINCIPAL AND INTEREST. Mortgagor shall promptly pay when due the principal of and interest on the indebtedness evidenced by the Note, late charges as provided in the Note and the principal of and interest on any Future Advances secured by this Mortgage.
 
2.            INSURANCE.
 
(a)           Mortgagor shall keep the Mortgaged Property continuously insured, to the extent of its full insurable replacement value, against loss or damage (including rent loss) by fire, with extended coverage and coverage against loss or damage by vandalism, malicious mischief, sprinkler leakage, lightening, hail, explosion, riot, riot attending a strike, civil commotion, aircraft, smoke, and, if available, against flood and against other hazards as Mortgagee may require from time to time. Mortgagor shall also maintain comprehensive general public liability and property damage insurance with contractual liability endorsement and workmen’s compensation insurance, and in such total amounts as Mortgagee may require from time to time.
 
(b)           During the course of any construction or repair to the Mortgaged Property, Mortgagor shall acquire and maintain builders completed value risk insurance against all risks of physical loss, including collapse and transit coverage, during construction of such improvements, with deductibles not to exceed $10,000.00 in non-reporting form, covering the total value of work performed and equipment, supplies and materials furnished. Such policy of insurance should contain the “permission to occupy upon completion of work or occupancy” endorsement.
 
(c)           All policies, including policies for any amounts carried in excess of the required minimum and policies not specifically required by Mortgagee, shall be in form satisfactory to Mortgagee, shall be issued by companies satisfactory to Mortgagee, shall be maintained in full force and effect, shall be assigned and delivered to Mortgagee, with premiums prepaid, as collateral security for payment of the indebtedness secured hereby, shall be endorsed with a standard Mortgagee clause in favor of Mortgagee, not subject to contribution, and shall provide for at least thirty (30) days notice of cancellation to Mortgagee.

 
2

 
 
(d)           If the insurance, or any part thereof, shall expire, or be canceled, or become void or voidable by reason of Mortgagor’s breach of any condition thereof, or if Mortgagee determines that such coverage is unsatisfactory by reason of the failure or impairment of the capital of any company in which the insurance may then be carried, or if for any reasons whatever the insurance shall be unsatisfactory to Mortgagee, Mortgagor shall place new insurance on the Mortgaged Property satisfactory to Mortgagee. All renewal policies, with premiums paid, shall be delivered to Mortgagee at least thirty (30) days before expiration of the old policies.
 
(e)           In the event of loss, Mortgagor will continue to promptly and completely perform all of its obligations arising under the Note and this Mortgage (including the payment of monies under the Note) and Mortgagor will give immediate notice thereof to Mortgagee, and Mortgagee may make proof of loss if not made promptly by Mortgagor, provided however, that any adjustment of a proof of loss shall require the prior written consent of Mortgagee. Each insurance company concerned is hereby authorized and directed to make payment under such insurance, including return of unearned premiums, directly to Mortgagee instead of to Mortgagor and Mortgagee jointly, and Mortgagor appoints Mortgagee, irrevocably, as Mortgagor’s attorney-in-fact to endorse any draft therefore. Mortgagee shall have the right to retain and apply the proceeds of any such insurance, at its election, to reduction of the indebtedness secured hereby after payment of all of Mortgagee’s fees, costs, and expenses incurred in connection with the recovery of such insurance proceeds (including without limitation the fees and expenses of its counsel), or Mortgagee may at its sole discretion, apply all or any portion of the proceeds of any such insurance in or to restoration or repair of the property damaged after payment of the aforedescribed fees, costs, and expenses of Mortgagee, upon such terms as Mortgagee may specify. If Mortgagee elects to use any insurance proceeds to reduce the indebtedness as aforesaid, Mortgagee may apply such proceeds in the order and in the amounts that Mortgagee, in its sole discretion, may elect, to the payment of principal (whether or not then due and payable) or interest on any sums secured by this Mortgage. Mortgagee’s application of insurance proceeds to reduction of the indebtedness secured by this Mortgage shall not excuse or modify Mortgagor’s obligation to continue to pay the installments of interest and/or principal required under the Note unless the amount of such insurance proceeds received by Mortgagee is sufficient to repay in full all interest, principal, and all other sums required to be paid to Mortgagee under the Note or this Mortgage. Such policies of insurance and all renewals thereof are hereby unconditionally assigned to Mortgagee as additional security for payment of the indebtedness hereby secured and Mortgagor hereby agrees that after default hereunder any values available thereunder upon cancellation or termination of any of said policies or renewals, whether in the form of return of premiums or otherwise, shall be payable to Mortgagee as assignee thereon. If Mortgagee becomes the owner of the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof by foreclosure or otherwise, such policies, including all right, title, and interest of Mortgagor thereunder, shall become the absolute property of Mortgagee.
 
3.           TAXES AND OTHER CHARGES. Mortgagor shall pay at least thirty (30) days before they are delinquent and before interest or penalties are due thereon, without any deduction or abatement, all taxes, assessments, water and sewer rents, levies, encumbrances and all other charges or claims of every nature and kind which may be assessed, levied, imposed, suffered, placed or filed at any time against Mortgagor, the Mortgaged Property, or any part thereof or against the interest of Mortgagee therein, or which by any present or future law may have priority over the indebtedness secured hereby either in lien or in distribution out of the proceeds of any judicial sale; and Mortgagor shall produce to Mortgagee, not later than such dates, official receipts for the payment thereof provided however the 2009 and 2010 real property taxes do not have to be paid until December 11, 2010.

5.            APPLICATION OF PAYMENTS. All payments received by Mortgagee under the Note and Paragraph 1 hereof shall be applied by Mortgagee as follows: (i) first to any amounts due Mortgagee other than principal and interest (such as administrative charges or attorneys’ fees); (ii) second to interest on any sums secured by this Mortgage; and (iii) third to the outstanding principal due under the Note.
 
6.            PRESERVATION AND MAINTENANCE OF PROPERTY; LEASEHOLDS; CONDOMINIUMS; PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENTS. Except as permitted by Mortgagee, Mortgagor shall keep the Mortgaged Property in good repair and shall not commit waste or permit impairment or deterioration of the Mortgaged Property, including but not limited to alteration or demolition of the Mortgaged Property, and shall comply with the provisions of any lease if this Mortgage is on a leasehold. Furthermore, abandonment of the Mortgaged Property by the subject Mortgagor shall constitute a default under the Note and Mortgage. If this Mortgage is on one or more units in a condominium and/or property within a planned unit development, Mortgagor shall perform all of Mortgagor’s obligations under the declaration of covenants creating or governing the condominium or planned unit development, the by-laws and regulations of the condominium or planned unit development, and constituent documents. If a condominium or planned unit development rider is executed by Mortgagor and recorded together with this Mortgage, the covenants, and agreements of such rider shall be incorporated into and shall amend and supplement the covenants and agreements of this Mortgage as if the rider were a part hereof.
 
7.            PROTECTION OF MORTGAGEE’S SECURITY.
 
(a)           If Mortgagor fails to perform the covenants and agreements contained in this Mortgage (including without limitation the failure to adequately insure the Mortgaged Property as described in Paragraph 2 hereof), or if any action or proceeding is commenced which materially affects Mortgagee’s interest in the Mortgaged Property, including, but not limited to, eminent domain, insolvency, code enforcement, or arrangements, or proceedings involving a bankrupt or decedent, then Mortgagee at Mortgagee’s option, upon notice to Mortgagor, may make such appearances, disburse such sums and take such action as is necessary to protect Mortgagee’s interest (including without limitation, the force placing of insurance on all or any portion of the Mortgaged Property, disbursement of reasonable attorney’s fees and entry upon the Mortgaged Property to make repairs). If Mortgagee requires mortgage insurance as a condition of making the loan secured by this Mortgage or during the term of the loan secured by this Mortgage, such mortgage insurance shall be procured by Mortgagee and Mortgagor shall pay the premiums required to maintain such insurance in effect until such time as the requirement for such insurance terminates in accordance with the Mortgagor’s and Mortgagee’s written agreement or applicable law.
 
(b)           Any amounts disbursed by Mortgagee pursuant to this Paragraph 7, with interest thereon, shall become additional indebtedness of Mortgagor secured by this Mortgage. Unless Mortgagor and Mortgagee agree to other terms of payment, such amounts shall be payable upon notice from Mortgagee to Mortgagor requesting payment thereof, and shall bear interest from the date of disbursement at the lesser of twenty-four percent (24%) per annum or the highest rate permitted by applicable law. Nothing contained in this Paragraph 7 shall require Mortgagee to incur any expense or take any action hereunder.
 
8.            INSPECTION. Mortgagee may make or cause to be made reasonable entries upon and inspections of the Mortgaged Property, provided that Mortgagee shall give Mortgagor notice prior to any such inspection specifying reasonable cause therefore related to Mortgagee’s interest in the Mortgaged Property.

9.            CONDEMNATION.
 
(a)           In the event of any condemnation or taking of all or any part of the Mortgaged Property by eminent domain, alteration of the grade of any street, or other injury to or decrease in the value of the Mortgaged Property by any public or quasi-public authority or corporation, Mortgagor shall continue to promptly and completely perform all of its obligations arising under the Note and this Mortgage (including the payment of money under the Note) and all proceeds (that is, the award or agreed compensation for the damages sustained) allocable to Mortgagor, after deducting therefrom all costs and expenses of Mortgagee (regardless of the particular nature thereof and whether incurred with or without suit) including attorney’s fees incurred by Mortgagee in connection with the collection of such proceeds, shall be applicable first to payment of the indebtedness secured hereby. No settlement for the damages sustained shall be made by Mortgagor without Mortgagee’s prior written approval. Receipt by Mortgagee of any proceeds less than the full amount of the then outstanding debt shall not alter or modify Mortgagor’s obligation to continue to pay without reduction the installments of principal, interest and other charges specified in the Note and herein. All the proceeds shall be paid directly to Mortgagee and shall be applied in the order and in the amounts that Mortgagee, in Mortgagee’s sole discretion, may elect, to the payment of costs, expenses, principal (whether or not then due and payable), interest or any sums secured by this Mortgage or toward payment, after the aforesaid deductions for Mortgagee’s costs and expenses, to Mortgagor, on such terms as Mortgagee may specify, to be used for the sole purpose of altering, restoring, or rebuilding any part of the Mortgaged Property which may have been altered, damaged, or destroyed as a result of the taking, alteration of grade, or other injury to the Mortgaged Property.
 
(b)           Mortgagee shall have the right to prosecute to final determination or settlement an appeal or other appropriate proceedings in the name of Mortgagee or Mortgagor for which Mortgagee is hereby appointed irrevocably as attorney-in-fact for Mortgagor, which appointment, being for security, is irrevocable. In that event, the expenses of the proceedings, including reasonable counsel fees, shall be paid first out of the proceeds, and only the excess, if any, paid to Mortgagee, shall be credited against the amounts due under this Mortgage.
 
(c)           Nothing herein shall limit the rights otherwise available to Mortgagee, at law or in equity, including the right to intervene as a party to any condemnation proceeding.
 
10.          FORBEARANCE BY MORTGAGEE NOT A WAIVER. Any forbearance by Mortgagee in exercising any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise afforded by applicable law, shall not be a waiver of or preclude the exercise of any such right or remedy. The procurement of insurance or the payment of taxes or other liens or charges by Mortgagee shall not be a waiver of Mortgagee’s right to accelerate the maturity of the indebtedness secured by this Mortgage.
 
11.          REMEDIES CUMULATIVE. All remedies provided in this Mortgage are distinct and cumulative to any other right or remedy under this Mortgage or afforded by law or equity, and may be exercised concurrently, independently, or successively.
