The Mortgagor shall keep the Mortgaged Property insured for the benefit of the Mortgagee against loss or damage by fire and available extended coverage risks, as may be required by the Mortgagee from time to time, and provided coverage of not less than the coverage encompassed by Fire, Extended Coverage, and Vandalism and Malicious Mischief perils broadened to include the so-called All Risk of Physical Loss, all in a format approved by the Mortgagee and in sufficient amounts to prevent the application of any insurance policy co-insurance contribution on any loss and shall in no event be less than the full face amount of the Note. Policies shall be written on a Builders Risk, Completed Value, non-reporting form which shall include coverage therein for completion and/or Mortgaged Property occupancy only if improvements being made to the Mortgaged Property are so substantial as to require such coverage in addition to Mortgagors extended coverage policy. All insurance herein provided for shall be obtained by the Mortgagor (notwithstanding the procurement of other insurance policies by other persons or parties and relating to the Mortgaged Property) and carried in companies reasonably approved by the Mortgagee, and all policies, including additional and renewal policies, marked premiums paid and containing an agreement by the insurer that the policy shall not be canceled or materially changed without at least thirty (30) days prior written notice to the Mortgagee, the policy, or any duplicate original policy, shall be delivered to the Mortgagee, and all renewal policies, including additional and renewals, modifications and extensions thereof, shall be deposited with the Mortgagee throughout the life of the loan and shall be payable, in case of loss or damage, to the Mortgagee as the first mortgagee, and shall contain the standard non-contributing mortgagee clause entitling the Mortgagee to collect all proceeds payable under all such insurance, as well as standard waiver of subrogation endorsement, and waiver of other endorsements, as the Mortgagee may require, all to be in form acceptable to the Mortgagee. In the event of any material loss, the Mortgagor will give immediate notice to the Mortgagee. The Mortgagor hereby authorizes the Mortgagee, at its option, to collect, adjust and compromise any losses under any of the insurance policies, to endorse the Mortgagors name on any document or instrument in payment of any insured loss and, after deducting the costs of collection, to apply the proceeds, at the Mortgagees sole option, as follows: (i) as a credit upon the indebtedness secured hereby, whether or not the same shall be then due and payable, in which event, the lien of this Mortgage shall be affected only by a reduction thereof in any amount equal to the amount so applied as a credit, or (ii) to repairing or restoring the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof, in which event, the Mortgagee shall not be obligated to see to the proper application thereof, nor shall the amount so released or used be deemed a payment on any indebtedness secured hereby. The Mortgagor shall obtain, carry and maintain comprehensive general liability insurance covering the Mortgaged Property in an amount of no less than One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) bodily injury and/or property damage, per occurrence, and Demolition Insurance in the event that all buildings on the Mortgaged Property cannot always be automatically rebuilt to the same specifications, and in the same location in the case of all types of destruction, regardless of magnitude.

Section; provided that evidence of applicability of coverages to the Mortgaged Property is provided.

4. Payment of Impositions and Other Charges. Mortgagor shall pay all taxes, assessments, water rates, sewer rents, utility charges and other charges, and any liens prior to the lien of this Mortgage now or hereafter assessed or liens on or levied against the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof, and in case of default in the payment thereof when the same shall be due and payable, it shall be lawful for the Mortgagee, without notice or demand, to pay the same or any of them; and the monies paid by the Mortgagee in discharge of taxes, assessments, water rates, sewer rents, utility charges and other charges, and prior liens shall be a lien on the Premises added to the amount of said Note or obligation and secured by this Mortgage, payable on demand, with interest at the rate set forth in the Note secured hereby from the time of payment of the same; and upon request of the Mortgagee, the Mortgagor shall exhibit to the Mortgagee receipts for the payment of all items specified in this Paragraph prior to the date when the same shall become delinquent.
5. Tax Escrow. Upon occurrence and continuance of any Event of Default, or if Mortgagor fails to provide Mortgagee with proof of payment within thirty (30) days after the due date of any such taxes, Mortgagor shall pay to the Mortgagee, together with, and in addition to, the monthly installments of interest provided in the Note, on the date provided for the first payment of interest in the Note and on the first day of each month thereafter until the Note has been fully paid, a sum equal to one-twelfth (1/12) of the yearly real property taxes assessed against the Mortgaged Property as estimated by the Mortgagee (in the exercise of its reasonable discretion). The Mortgagee shall hold said sums in a non-interest-bearing account, in trust, to pay said taxes in the manner and to the extent permitted by law when the same become due and payable in each year. If the total payments made by the Mortgagor to the Mortgagee on account of said taxes up to the time when the same become due and payable, shall exceed the amount of payment for said taxes actually made by the Mortgagee, such excess shall be credited by the Mortgagee on the next subsequent payment or payments to become due from the Mortgagor to the Mortgagee on account of said taxes. If, however, said payments shall not be sufficient to pay said taxes when the same become due and payable, then the Mortgagor agrees to pay to the Mortgagee the amount necessary to make up the deficiency upon demand by the Mortgagee. At any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default (as hereinafter defined), the Mortgagee may, at its option, apply the balance remaining of the sums so accumulated as a credit against the principal or accrued and unpaid interest of the Note, or both.

6. Condemnation. Notwithstanding any taking by eminent domain, alteration of the grade of any street or other injury to, or decrease in, value of the Mortgaged Property by any public or quasi-public authority or corporation, the Mortgagor shall continue to pay interest on the entire principal sum then secured and all payments required by the Note and this Mortgage until any such award or payment shall have been actually received by the Mortgagee, and any reduction in the principal sum resulting from the application by the Mortgagee of such award or payment as hereinafter set forth shall be deemed to take effect only on the date of such receipt; said award or payment may, at the option of the Mortgagee, be retained and applied by the Mortgagee toward payment of the monies secured by this Mortgage, or be paid over wholly or in part to the Mortgagor for the purpose of altering, restoring or rebuilding any part of the Mortgaged Property which may have been altered, damaged or destroyed as a result of any such taking, alteration of grade or other injury to the Mortgaged Property, or for any other purpose or object satisfactory to the Mortgagee, but the Mortgagee shall not be obligated to see to the application of any amount paid over to the Mortgagor; and that if, prior to the receipt by the Mortgagee of such award or payment, the Mortgaged Property shall have been sold on foreclosure of this Mortgage, the Mortgagee shall have the right to receive said award or payment to the extent of any deficiency found to be due upon such sale, with legal interest thereon. Prior to the occurrence of any Event of Default, and provided that proceeds and other sums available from Mortgagor are sufficient to restore any damage resulting from such taking, Mortgagee agrees that it will permit proceeds of any partial taking to be applied to restoration at the Mortgaged Property.
7. Leases and Rents. Mortgagor does hereby absolutely and unconditionally assign to Mortgagee, all Mortgagors right, title and interest in all current and future Leases and Rents, it being intended by Mortgagor that this assignment constitutes a present, absolute assignment and not an assignment for additional security only. Such assignment to Mortgagee shall not be construed to bind Mortgagee to the performance of any of the covenants, conditions or provisions contained in any such Lease or otherwise impose any obligation upon Mortgagee. Mortgagor agrees to execute and deliver to Mortgagee such additional instruments, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Mortgagee, as may hereafter be reasonably requested by Mortgagee to further evidence and confirm such assignment. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 7, so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing under the Loan Documents, Mortgagor shall have the sole but revocable right and license to act as landlord under the Leases and to enforce the covenants of the Leases. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, without the need for notice or demand, the license granted to Mortgagor herein shall automatically be revoked. Mortgagee is hereby granted and assigned by Mortgagor the right, at its option, upon revocation of the license granted herein, to enter upon the Mortgaged Property in person, by agent or by court-appointed receiver to collect the Rents. Any Rents collected after the revocation of the license shall be applied by Mortgagee as determined by Mortgagee in its discretion. Mortgagor expressly understands that any and all proposed leases are included in the definition of Lease or Leases as such terms may be used throughout this Mortgage, the Note and the other Loan Documents. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Section 7 and the terms and conditions of that certain Assignment of Leases and Rents from Mortgagor to Mortgagee of even date herewith, the terms and conditions of the Assignment of Leases and Rents shall control.

Mortgagor acknowledges that Mortgagee has a valid interest in maintaining the value of the Mortgaged Property so as to ensure that, should Mortgagor default in the repayment of the Debt, Mortgagee can recover the Debt by a sale of the Mortgaged Property. Except as expressly permitted under this Mortgage or under the other Loan Documents, Mortgagor shall not cause or suffer to occur or exist, directly or indirectly, voluntarily or involuntarily, by operation of law or otherwise, any sale, transfer, mortgage, pledge, lien or encumbrance (other than Permitted Encumbrances) (collectively, Transfers) of (i) all or any part of the Mortgaged Property or (ii) any direct or indirect beneficial ownership interest (in whole or part) in Mortgagor, irrespective of the number of tiers of ownership, without the prior written consent of Mortgagee which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld provided that Griffin Industrial Realty, Inc. or entities controlled by it retain not less than fifty (50%) of the beneficial ownership of Mortgagor .

(c) Mortgagees consent to one Transfer shall not be deemed to be a waiver of Mortgagees right to require such consent to any future occurrence of same. Any Transfer made in contravention of this paragraph shall be null and void and of no force and effect.
(d) Mortgagor agrees to bear and shall pay or reimburse Mortgagee on demand for all reasonable expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys fees and disbursements. title search costs and title insurance endorsement premiums) incurred by

If any law is enacted or adopted or amended after the date of this Mortgage which deducts the Debt from the value of the Mortgaged Property for the purpose of taxation or which imposes a tax, either directly or indirectly, on the Debt or Mortgagees interest in the Mortgaged Property, Mortgagor will pay such tax, with interest and penalties thereon, if any. In the event Mortgagee is advised by counsel chosen by it that the payment of such tax or interest and penalties by Mortgagor would be unlawful or taxable to Mortgagee or unenforceable or provide the basis for a defense of usury, then in any such event, Mortgagee shall have the option, by written notice of not less than ninety (90) days, to declare the Debt immediately due and payable and, provided no Event of Default exists, no Prepayment Charge shall be due in connection therewith.
13. No Credits on Account of the Debt. Mortgagor will not claim or demand or be entitled to any credit or credits on account of the Debt for any part of the Impositions or other charges assessed against the Mortgaged Property, or any part thereof, and no deduction shall otherwise be made or claimed from the assessed value of the Mortgaged Property, or any part thereof, for real estate tax purposes by reason of this Mortgage or the Debt.

(i) should the Mortgagor be deprived of either title or possession or control of the Mortgaged Property by process or operation of law or order of court; or
(j) should the Mortgagor be involved as a debtor pursuant to the bankruptcy laws of the United States or if any proceeding shall be instituted on any lien or mortgage of any kind effecting the Mortgaged Property, or should the Mortgagor be judged to be bankrupt or insolvent, or should a judgment lien, execution or similar process be levied against the Mortgaged Property and any of the aforesaid not be released, unstayed, or otherwise vacated for a period of ninety (90) days; or
(k) upon default in the observance or performance of any other covenants or agreements of the Mortgagor hereunder or under any other instrument securing the debt or any portion thereof, after notice and failure to cure within thirty (30) days, or such longer period as is reasonably necessary to cure such default, provided that Mortgagor diligently pursues such cure to completion or
(l) default in the performance of any of Mortgagors covenants or agreements in any other mortgage or other security instrument on the Mortgaged Property; or
(m) after default under any other promissory note or evidence of indebtedness by the Mortgagor to the Mortgagee, and if such default continues for a period of thirty (30) days after written notice; or

20. Right To Cure Defaults. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, Mortgagee may, but without any obligation to do so and without notice to or demand on Mortgagor and without releasing Mortgagor from any obligation hereunder, make or do the same in such manner and to such extent as Mortgagee may deem necessary to protect the security hereof. Mortgagee is authorized to enter upon the Mortgaged Property for such purposes or appear in, defend, or bring any action or proceeding to protect its interest in the Mortgaged Property or to foreclose this Mortgage or collect the Debt, and the cost and expense thereof (including reasonable attorneys fees and disbursements to the extent permitted by law), with interest at the Default Rate (as defined in the Note) for the period after notice from Mortgagee that such cost or expense was incurred to the date of payment to Mortgagee, shall constitute a portion of the Debt, shall be secured by this Mortgage and the other Loan Documents and shall be due and payable to Mortgagee upon demand.
21. Remedies.
(a) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, Mortgagee may take such action, without notice or demand, as it deems advisable to protect and enforce its rights against Mortgagor and in and to the Mortgaged Property by Mortgagee itself or otherwise, including, without limitation, the following actions, each of which may be pursued concurrently or otherwise, at such time and in such order as Mortgagee may determine, in its sole discretion, without impairing or otherwise affecting the other rights and remedies of Mortgagee:
i. declare the entire Debt to be immediately due and payable;
ii. to the extent permitted by applicable law, institute a proceeding or proceedings, judicial or nonjudicial, by advertisement or otherwise, for the complete foreclosure of this Mortgage in which case the Mortgaged Property or any interest therein may be sold for cash or upon credit in one or more parcels or in several interests or portions and in any order or manner;
iii. with or without entry, to the extent permitted and pursuant to the procedures provided by applicable law, institute proceedings for the partial foreclosure of this
14
Mortgage for the portion of the Debt then due and payable, subject to the continuing lien of this Mortgage for the balance of the Debt not then due;
iv. if and to the extent permitted by applicable law, sell for cash or upon credit the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof and all estate, claim, demand, right, title and interest of Mortgagor therein and rights of redemption thereof, pursuant to the power of sale contained herein or otherwise, at one or more sales, as an entirety or in parcels, at such time and place, upon such terms and after such notice thereof as may be required or permitted by law;
v. institute an action, suit or proceeding in equity for the specific performance of any covenant, condition or agreement contained herein, or in any of the other Loan Documents;
vi. to the extent permitted by applicable law, recover judgment on the Note either before, during or after any proceedings for the enforcement of this Mortgage;
vii. apply for the appointment of a trustee, receiver, liquidator or conservator of the Mortgaged Property, to the extent permitted by applicable law, without notice and without regard for the adequacy of the security for the Debt and without regard for the solvency of the Mortgagor, any guarantor or of any person, firm or other entity liable for the payment of the Debt;
viii. enforce Mortgagees interest in the Leases and Rents and enter into or upon the Mortgaged Property, either personally or by its agents, nominees or attorneys and dispossess Mortgagor and its agents and servants therefrom, and thereupon Mortgagee may (A) use, operate, manage, control, insure, maintain, repair, restore and otherwise deal with all and every part of the Mortgaged Property and conduct the business thereat; (B) complete any construction on the Mortgaged Property in such manner and form as Mortgagee deems advisable; (C) make alterations, additions, renewals, replacements and improvements to or on the Mortgaged Property; (D) exercise all rights and powers of Mortgagor with respect to the Mortgaged Property, whether in the name of Mortgagor or otherwise, including, without limitation, the right to make, cancel, enforce or modify Leases, obtain and evict tenants, and demand, sue for, collect and receive all Rents; and (E) apply the receipts from the Mortgaged Property to the payment of Debt, after deducting therefrom all expenses (including reasonable attorneys fees and disbursements) incurred in connection with the aforesaid operations and all amounts necessary to pay the taxes, assessments insurance and other charges in connection with the Mortgaged Property, as well as just and reasonable compensation for the services of Mortgagee, its counsel, agents and employees; or
ix. pursue such other rights and remedies as may be available at law or in equity or under the Uniform Commercial Code, including, without limitation, Section 9604(a)(2) of the Uniform Commercial Code.
In the event of a sale, by foreclosure or otherwise, of less than all of the Mortgaged Property, this Mortgage shall continue as a lien on the remaining portion of the Mortgaged Property.
15
(b) The proceeds of any sale made under or by virtue of this paragraph, together with any other sums which then may be held by Mortgagee under this Mortgage, whether under the provisions of this paragraph or otherwise, shall be applied by Mortgagee to the payment of the Debt in such priority and proportion as Mortgagee in its sole discretion shall deem proper.
(c) Mortgagee may adjourn from time to time any sale by it to be made under or by virtue of this Mortgage by announcement at the time and place appointed for such sale or for such adjourned sale or sales; and, except as otherwise provided by any applicable provision of law, Mortgagee, without further notice or publication, may make such sale at the time and place to which the same shall be so adjourned.
(d) Upon the completion of any sale or sales pursuant hereto, Mortgagee (to the extent permitted by law) or an officer of any court empowered to do so, shall execute and deliver to the accepted purchaser or purchasers a good and sufficient instrument, or good and sufficient instruments, conveying, assigning and transferring all estate, right, title and interest in and to the property and rights sold. Any sale or sales made under or by virtue of this paragraph, whether made under the power of sale herein granted or under or by virtue of judicial proceedings or of a judgment or decree of foreclosure and sale, shall operate to divest all the estate, right, title, interest, claim and demand whatsoever, whether at law or in equity, of Mortgagor in and to the properties and rights so sold, and shall be a perpetual bar both at law and in equity against Mortgagor and against any and all persons claiming or who may claim the same, or any part thereof from, through or under Mortgagor.
(e) Upon any sale made under or by virtue of this paragraph, whether made under the power of sale herein granted or under or by virtue of judicial proceedings or of a judgment or decree of foreclosure and sale, Mortgagee may bid for and acquire the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof and in lieu of paying cash therefor may make settlement for the purchase price by crediting upon the Debt the net sales price after deducting therefrom the expenses of the sale and costs of the action and any other sums which Mortgagee is authorized to deduct under this Mortgage.
(f) No recovery of any judgment by Mortgagee and no levy of an execution under any judgment upon the Mortgaged Property or upon any other property of Mortgagor shall affect in any manner or to any extent the lien of this Mortgage upon the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof, or any liens, rights, powers or remedies of Mortgagee hereunder, but such liens, rights, powers and remedies of Mortgagee shall continue unimpaired as before.
(g) Mortgagee may terminate or rescind any proceeding or other action brought in connection with its exercise of the remedies provided in this paragraph at any time before the conclusion thereof, as determined in Mortgagees sole discretion and without prejudice to Mortgagee.
(h) Mortgagee may resort to any remedies and the security given by the Note, this Mortgage or the other Loan Documents in whole or in part, and in such portions and in such order as determined in Mortgagees sole discretion. No such action shall in any way be
16
considered a waiver of any rights, benefits or remedies evidenced or provided by the Note, this Mortgage or any of the other Loan Documents. The failure of Mortgagee to exercise any right, remedy or option provided in the Note, this Mortgage or any of the other Loan Documents shall not be deemed a waiver of such right, remedy or option or of any covenant or obligation secured by the Note, this Mortgage or the other Loan Documents. No acceptance by Mortgagee of any payment after the occurrence of any Event of Default and no payment by Mortgagee of any obligation for which Mortgagor is liable hereunder shall be deemed to waive or cure any Event of Default with respect to Mortgagor, or Mortgagors liability to pay such obligation. No sale of all or any portion of the Mortgaged Property, no forbearance on the part of Mortgagee, and no extension of time for the payment of the whole or any portion of the Debt or any other indulgence given by Mortgagee to Mortgagor, shall operate to release or in any manner affect the interest of Mortgagee in the remaining Mortgaged Property or the liability of Mortgagor to pay the Debt. No waiver by Mortgagee shall be effective unless it is in writing and then only to the extent specifically stated. All reasonable costs and expenses of Mortgagee in exercising its rights and remedies under this paragraph (including reasonable attorneys fees and disbursements to the extent permitted by law), shall be paid by Mortgagor immediately upon notice from Mortgagee, with interest at the Default Rate for the period after notice from Mortgagee and such costs and expenses shall constitute a portion of the Debt and shall be secured by this Mortgage.
(i) The interests and rights of Mortgagee under the Note, this Mortgage or in any of the other Loan Documents shall not be impaired by any indulgence, including (i) any renewal, extension or modification which Mortgagee may grant with respect to any of the Debt, (ii) any surrender, compromise, release, renewal, extension, exchange or substitution which Mortgagee may grant with respect to the Mortgaged Property or any portion thereof; or (iii) any release or indulgence granted to any maker, endorser, guarantor or surety of any of the Debt.
(j) FOR THE PURPOSE OF PROCURING POSSESSION OF THE MORTGAGED PROPERTY IN THE EVENT OF ANY DEFAULT HEREUNDER OR UNDER ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT, MORTGAGOR HEREBY AUTHORIZES AND EMPOWERS ANY ATTORNEY OF ANY COURT OF RECORD IN THE COMMONWEALTH OF PENNSYLVANIA OR ELSEWHERE, AS ATTORNEY FOR MORTGAGOR AND ALL PERSONS CLAIMING UNDER OR THROUGH MORTGAGOR, TO APPEAR FOR MORTGAGOR AND CONFESS JUDGMENT PURSUANT TO APPLICABLE LAW AGAINST MORTGAGOR, AND ALL PERSONS CLAIMING UNDER OR THROUGH MORTGAGOR, FOR THE RECOVERY BY MORTGAGEE OF POSSESSION OF THE MORTGAGED PROPERTY, WITHOUT ANY STAY OF EXECUTION, FOR WHICH THIS MORTGAGE, OR A COPY HEREOF VERIFIED BY AFFIDAVIT, SHALL BE A SUFFICIENT WARRANT; AND THEREUPON A WRIT OF POSSESSION MAY BE ISSUED FORTHWITH, WITHOUT ANY PRIOR WRIT OR PROCEEDING WHATSOEVER. MORTGAGOR HEREBY RELEASES MORTGAGEE FROM ALL ERRORS AND DEFECTS WHATSOEVER IN ENTERING SUCH JUDGMENT AND IN CAUSING SUCH WRIT OR WRITS TO BE ISSUED, AND HEREBY AGREES THAT NO WRIT OF ERROR, APPEAL, PETITION TO OPEN OR STRIKE OFF JUDGMENT, OR OTHER OBJECTION SHALL BE FILED OR MADE WITH RESPECT THERETO. IF FOR ANY REASON AFTER SUCH JUDGMENT HAS BEEN CONFESSED
17
THE SAME SHALL BE DISCONTINUED OR POSSESSION OF THE MORTGAGED PROPERTY SHALL REMAIN IN OR BE RESTORED TO MORTGAGOR, MORTGAGEE SHALL HAVE THE RIGHT FOR THE SAME DEFAULT OR ANY SUBSEQUENT DEFAULT TO BRING ONE OR MORE FURTHER JUDGMENTS BY CONFESSION AS ABOVE PROVIDED TO RECOVER POSSESSION OF THE MORTGAGED PROPERTY. MORTGAGEE MAY ENTER SUCH JUDGMENT BEFORE OR AFTER THE INSTITUTION OF FORECLOSURE PROCEEDINGS UPON THIS MORTGAGE, OR AFTER JUDGMENT THEREON OR ON THE NOTE, OR AFTER A SALE OF THE MORTGAGED PROPERTY BY THE SHERIFF.
22. Right of Entry. In addition to any other rights or remedies granted under this Mortgage, Mortgagee and its agents shall have the right to enter and inspect the Mortgaged Property at any reasonable time during the Term and upon reasonable advance notice to Mortgagor (except following the occurrence and continuance of a default hereunder or under any of the Loan Documents, in which case no such notice shall be required prior to Mortgagee exercising its rights under this Section). The reasonable cost of such inspections or audits shall be borne by Mortgagor should Mortgagee determine that an Event of Default exists, including the cost of all follow up or additional investigations or inquiries deemed reasonably necessary by Mortgagee. The reasonable cost of such inspections, if not paid for by Mortgagor within ten (10) Business Days of demand therefor, may be added to the principal balance of the sums due under the Note and this Mortgage and shall bear interest thereafter until paid at the Default Rate.
23. Security Agreement. This Mortgage is both a real property mortgage and a security agreement within the meaning of the Uniform Commercial Code. The Mortgaged Property includes both real and personal property and all other rights and interests, whether tangible or intangible in nature, of Mortgagor in the Mortgaged Property. Mortgagor by executing and delivering this Mortgage has granted and hereby grants to Mortgagee, as security for the Debt, a security interest in the Mortgaged Property to the full extent that the Mortgaged Property may be subject to the Uniform Commercial Code (said portion of the Mortgaged Property so subject to the Uniform Commercial Code being called in this paragraph the Collateral). Mortgagor hereby agrees with Mortgagee to deliver to Mortgagee, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Mortgagee, such financing statements and such further assurances as Mortgagee may from time to time, reasonably consider necessary to create, perfect, and preserve Mortgagees security interest herein granted. This Mortgage shall also constitute a fixture filing for the purposes of the Uniform Commercial Code as to all or any items of the Collateral that are or are to become fixtures under the Uniform Commercial Code. Information concerning the security interest herein granted may be obtained from the parties at the addresses of the parties set forth in the first paragraph of this Mortgage. If an Event of Default shall occur, Mortgagee, in addition to any other rights and remedies which it may have, shall have and may exercise immediately and without demand, any and all rights and remedies granted to a secured party upon default under the Uniform Commercial Code, including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the right to take possession of the Collateral or any part thereof, and to take such other measures as Mortgagee may deem necessary for the care, protection and preservation of the Collateral. Upon request or demand of Mortgagee after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Mortgagor shall at its expense assemble the
18
Collateral and make it available to Mortgagee at a convenient place reasonably acceptable to Mortgagee. Mortgagor shall pay to Mortgagee within ten (10) Business Days of demand therefor any and all expenses, including reasonable attorneys fees and disbursements, incurred or paid by Mortgagee in protecting the interest in the Collateral and in enforcing the rights hereunder with respect to the Collateral. Any notice of sale, disposition or other intended action by Mortgagee with respect to the Collateral sent to Mortgagor in accordance with the provisions hereof at least ten (10) Business Days prior to such action, shall constitute commercially reasonable notice to Mortgagor. The proceeds of any disposition of the Collateral, or any part thereof, may be applied by Mortgagee to the payment of the Debt in such priority and proportions as Mortgagee in its sole discretion shall deem proper. In the event of any change in name, identity or structure of any Mortgagor, such Mortgagor shall notify Mortgagee thereof and promptly after Mortgagees request shall execute, file and record such Uniform Commercial Code forms as are necessary to maintain the priority of Mortgagees lien upon and security interest in the Collateral, and shall pay all reasonable expenses and fees in connection with the filing and recording thereof. If Mortgagee shall require the filing or recording of additional Uniform Commercial Code forms or continuation statements, Mortgagor shall, promptly after request, execute, file and record such Uniform Commercial Code forms or continuation statements as Mortgagee shall deem reasonably necessary, and shall pay all reasonable expenses and fees in connection with the filing and recording thereof, it being understood and agreed, however, that no such additional documents shall increase Mortgagors obligations or decrease Mortgagors rights under the Note, this Mortgage and any of the other Loan Documents. Mortgagor hereby irrevocably appoints Mortgagee as its attorney-in-fact, coupled with an interest, to file with the appropriate public office on its behalf any financing or other statements signed only by Mortgagee, as secured party, in connection with the Collateral covered by this Mortgage.
24. Actions and Proceedings. Mortgagee has the right to appear in and defend any action or proceeding brought with respect to the Mortgaged Property and to bring any action or proceeding, in the name and on behalf of Mortgagor, which Mortgagee, in its reasonable discretion, decides should be brought to protect its interest in the Mortgaged Property. Mortgagee shall, at its option, be subrogated to the lien of any deed of trust or other security instrument discharged in whole or in part by the Debt, and any such subrogation rights shall constitute additional security for the payment of the Debt.
25. Recovery of Sums Required to be Paid. Mortgagee shall have the right from time to time to take action to recover any sum or sums which constitute a part of the Debt as the same become due, without regard to whether or not the balance of the Debt shall be due, and without prejudice to the right of Mortgagee thereafter to bring an action of foreclosure, or any other action, for a default or defaults by Mortgagor existing at the time such earlier action was commenced.
26. Marshalling and Other Matters. Mortgagor hereby waives, to the extent permitted by law, the benefit of all appraisement, valuation, stay, extension, reinstatement and redemption laws now or hereafter in force and all rights of marshalling in the event of any sale hereunder of the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof or any interest therein. Further, Mortgagor hereby expressly waives any and all rights of redemption from sale under any order
19
or decree of foreclosure of this Mortgage on behalf of Mortgagor, and on behalf of each and every person acquiring any interest in or title to the Mortgaged Property subsequent to the date of this Mortgage and on behalf of all persons to the extent permitted by applicable law. Mortgagee shall not be under any obligation to marshal any assets in favor of any Person or in payment of any of the Debt.
27. Handicapped Access.
(a) Mortgagor agrees that the Mortgaged Property shall at all times comply, with the requirements of the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, all state and local laws and ordinances related to handicapped access and all rules, regulations, and orders issued pursuant thereto including, without limitation, the Americans with Disabilities Act Accessibility Guidelines for Buildings and Facilities (collectively Access Laws).
(b) Without limiting the foregoing, Mortgagor shall cause any alterations to the Mortgaged Property to comply with all applicable Access Laws. The foregoing shall apply to tenant improvements constructed by Mortgagor or by any of its tenants. Mortgagee may condition any such approval upon receipt of a certificate of Access Law compliance from an architect, engineer, or other person acceptable to Mortgagee.
(c) Mortgagor agrees to give prompt notice to Mortgagee of the receipt by Mortgagor of any material complaints related to violation of any Access Laws and of the commencement of any proceedings or investigations which relate to compliance with applicable Access Laws.
28. Indemnification. In addition to any other indemnifications provided herein or in the other Loan Documents, Mortgagor shall protect, defend, indemnify and save harmless Mortgagee and its successors and assigns, and the officers, directors, stockholders, partners, members, employees, agents, and affiliates of Mortgagee and such successors and assigns (each an Indemnified Party) from and against all liabilities, obligations, claims, demands, damages, penalties, causes of action, losses, fines, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys fees and disbursements), imposed upon or incurred by or asserted against any Indemnified Party by reason of: (a) ownership of this Mortgage, the Mortgaged Property or any interest therein or receipt of any Rents; (b) any accident, injury to or death of persons or loss of or damage to property occurring in, on or about the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof or on the adjoining sidewalks, curbs, adjacent property or adjacent parking areas, streets or ways; (c) any use, nonuse or condition in, on or about the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof or on adjoining sidewalks, curbs, adjacent property or adjacent parking areas, streets or ways; (d) any failure on the part of Mortgagor to perform or comply with any of the terms of this Mortgage; (e) performance of any labor or services or the furnishing of any materials or other property in respect of the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof; (f) any failure of the Mortgaged Property or the Improvements to comply with any applicable law, statute, code, ordinance, rule or regulation including, without limitation, any Access Laws; (g) any default by Mortgagor under this Mortgage or any of the other Loan Documents; (h) any actions taken by any Indemnified Party in the enforcement of this Mortgage and other Loan Documents in accordance with their respective terms; (i) any representation or warranty made in the Note, this Mortgage or any of
20
the other Loan Documents being false or misleading in any material respect as of the date such representation or warranty was made; (j) any claim by brokers, finders or similar persons claiming to be entitled to a commission in connection with any Lease or other transaction involving the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof under any legal requirement or any liability asserted against Mortgagee with respect thereto; and (k) the claims of any lessee of any or any portion of the Mortgaged Property or any person acting through or under any lessee or otherwise arising under or as a consequence of any Lease (collectively, the Indemnified Liabilities), provided that Mortgagor shall not have an obligation to an Indemnified Party hereunder with respect to the Indemnified Liabilities arising from the fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Party as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. Any amounts payable to Mortgagee by reason of the application of this paragraph shall be secured by this Mortgage and shall become immediately due and payable and shall bear interest at the Default Rate from the date loss or damage is sustained by Mortgagee until paid. The obligations and liabilities of Mortgagor under this paragraph shall survive the termination, satisfaction, or assignment of this Mortgage and the exercise by Mortgagee of any of its rights or remedies hereunder, including, but not limited to, the acquisition of the Mortgaged Property by foreclosure or a conveyance in lieu of foreclosure.
29. Notices. Any notice, including all notices given by Mortgagor to Mortgagee pursuant to 42 Pa.C.S. § 8143(c), demand, statement, request or consent made hereunder shall be in writing, addressed to the intended recipient at its address set forth on page 1 of this Mortgage, and shall be made and deemed given in accordance with the terms of this Mortgage. All notices pursuant to 42 Pa.C.S. §8143(b) or (d) must be addressed to Mortgagee at its address set forth on page 1 of this Mortgage.
30. Authority. (a) Mortgagor (and the undersigned representative of Mortgagor, if any) represent and warrant that it (or they, as the case may be) has full power, authority and right to execute, deliver and perform its obligations pursuant to this Mortgage, and to deed, mortgage, give, grant, bargain, sell, alien, enfeoff, convey, confirm, warrant, pledge, hypothecate and assign the Mortgaged Property pursuant to the terms hereof and to keep and observe all of the terms of this Mortgage on Mortgagors part to be performed; and (b) Mortgagor represents and warrants that Mortgagor is not a foreign person within the meaning of Section 1445(f)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended and the related Treasury Department regulations, including temporary regulations.
31. Non-Waiver. The failure of Mortgagee to insist upon strict performance of any term hereof shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any term of this Mortgage. Any consent or approval by Mortgagee in any single instance shall not be deemed or construed to be Mortgagees consent or approval in any like matter arising at a subsequent date. Mortgagor shall not be relieved of Mortgagors obligations hereunder by reason of (a) the failure of Mortgagee to comply with any request of Mortgagor or any guarantor to take any action to foreclose this Mortgage or otherwise enforce any of the provisions hereof or of the Note, or the other Loan Documents, (b) the release, regardless of consideration, of the whole or any part of the Mortgaged Property, or of any person liable for the Debt or any portion thereof, or (c) any agreement or stipulation by Mortgagee extending the time of payment or otherwise modifying or supplementing the terms of the Note, this Mortgage or any of the other Loan Documents.
21
Mortgagee may resort for the payment of the Debt to any other security held by Mortgagee in such order and manner as Mortgagee, in its sole discretion, may elect. Mortgagee may take action to recover the Debt, or any portion thereof, or to enforce any covenant hereof without prejudice to the right of Mortgagee thereafter to foreclosure this Mortgage. The rights and remedies of Mortgagee under this Mortgage shall be separate, distinct and cumulative and none shall be given effect to the exclusion of the others. No act of Mortgagee shall be construed as an election to proceed under any one provision herein to the exclusion of any other provision. Mortgagee shall not be limited exclusively to the rights and remedies herein stated but shall be entitled to every right and remedy now or hereafter afforded at law or in equity.
32. No Oral Change. This Mortgage, and any provisions hereof, may not be modified, amended, waived, extended, changed, discharged or terminated orally or by any act or failure to act on the part of Mortgagor or Mortgagee, but only by an agreement in writing signed by the party against whom enforcement of any modification, amendment, waiver, extension, change, discharge or termination is sought.
33. Liability. Subject to the provisions hereof requiring Mortgagees consent to any transfer of the Mortgaged Property, this Mortgage shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Mortgagor and Mortgagee and their respective successors and assigns forever.

The Springing Master Lease shall be a net lease of all square footage at the Mortgaged Property on terms and conditions reasonably acceptable to Mortgagee, and shall continue until such time as a replacement tenant executes a new lease on terms and conditions acceptable to Mortgagee in its discretion. The rent under such Springing Master Lease shall be sufficient to provide a minimum debt service coverage ratio of 1.10 times debt service payable under the Loan. In addition, if Tenant does not exercise its option to renew the term of the Lease by the date which is nine (9) months prior to expiration of the Lease term, Mortgagor shall pay all cash flow from the Mortgaged Property (after payment of debt service and any ordinary and necessary operating expenses (to the extent not paid by Tenant)) to Mortgagee until such time as such renewal option is exercised or a lease with a replacement tenant on terms and conditions acceptable to Mortgagee in its reasonable discretion is approved and entered into. Such cash flow shall be held in escrow by Mortgagee to be applied to brokerage fees, re-leasing costs and tenant improvement costs incurred in connection with re-leasing all or any part of the Mortgaged Property. Upon re-leasing of substantially all of the vacated space at a rental rate sufficient to provide a debt service coverage ratio of not less than 1.1 to 1 and on other terms and conditions acceptable to Mortgagor in its discretion, then such cash flow sweep shall be terminated and any balance then held in escrow by Mortgagee shall be released to Mortgagee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the cash flow held hereunder may be applied by Mortgagee to any sums due and owing under the Note or this Mortgage, as determined in its Mortgagees discretion.

W I T N E S S E T H:
For value received, the Assignor hereby grants, transfers and assigns to Assignee all leases and/or occupancy agreements, with amendments, if any, (collectively, the Leases and each individually a Lease) covering all or portions of the real property situated in the Town of Bethlehem, County of Northampton, and State of Pennsylvania, known as 5220 Jaindl Boulevard, as more particularly bounded and described on Exhibit A attached hereto and made a part hereof (Premises), together with any extensions and renewals of any thereof and any guarantees of the lessees obligations under any thereof, and all rents, income and profits arising from the Leases and extensions and renewals thereof, if any, and together with all rents, income and profits due or to become due from the Premises and from any and all leases or tenancies for the use and occupation of the Premises or any part thereof which are now in existence or which may be created in the future during the term of this Assignment, whether or not recorded; together with and including the lessors entire interest in any lease, tenancy, rental or occupancy agreement now existing or which may be made hereafter affecting the Premises, and together with all the right, power and authority of Assignor to alter, modify or change, or to terminate the term thereof or accept a surrender thereof or to cancel the same or to waive or release the lessee from the performance or observance by the lessee of any obligation or condition thereof or to anticipate rents or any other payments thereunder for more than thirty (30) days prior to accrual, without the prior written consent of Assignee; for the purpose of securing (a) payment of all sums now or at any time hereafter due Assignee from Assignor, as evidenced by a certain Commercial Loan Note in the original principal amount of up to FOURTEEN MILLION ONE HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS ($14,100,000.00) of even date herewith (Note), which Note is also secured by an Open-End Mortgage, Assignment of Leases and Rents and Security Agreement to Assignee of the Premises of even date herewith (Mortgage) to be recorded on the date that this instrument is recorded; and (b) performance and discharge of each and every obligation, covenant and agreement contained herein and in the Note and Mortgage.
Assignor hereby assigns to Lender all Assignors right, title and interest in and to the Leases, such assignment being present, absolute and unconditional; provided, however, that in the absence of an Event of Default (as hereafter defined), Lender agrees that Assignor may collect the payment of any rents, issues, income, royalties and profits and retain and use the rents and other amounts now or hereafter due on the Leases. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Assignors right to collect such rents, issues, income and profits shall immediately terminate without further notice thereof to Assignor. Lender shall have the right to notify the tenants under the Leases of the existence of this Assignment at any time.
The above assignment shall not be deemed to impose upon Lender any of the obligations or duties of the landlord or Assignor provided in any Lease.
The Assignor and Assignee further agree as follows:
1. Assignor shall not execute new leases or alter, modify or change the Leases, or terminate the term thereof or accept a surrender thereof, or cancel the Leases or waive or release the lessee from the performance or observance by the lessee of any obligations or condition thereof, or anticipate rents or any other payments thereunder for more than thirty (30) days prior to accrual without the prior written consent of Assignee. Consent to modifications of the Leases which do not reduce rents, reduce term or materially reduce the tenants obligations thereunder shall not be unreasonably withheld.
2. The Assignor will fulfill or perform each and every condition and covenant of the Leases by lessor to be fulfilled or performed, give prompt notice to Assignee of any notice of default by the Assignor under the Leases received by the Assignor, together with a complete copy of any such notice, and at the sole cost and expense of the Assignor, enforce, short of termination of the Leases, the performance or observance of each and every material covenant and condition of the Leases by the lessee to be performed or observed.
3. So long as the Note shall remain unpaid or the Mortgage unreleased, the Assignor shall not convey the Premises to any lessee now or hereafter occupying the Premises or any part thereof, unless the deed or other conveyance contains a provision in form satisfactory to Assignee that the lease of such lessee shall not merge in the fee by reason of such conveyance and that the Lease, together with the obligation to pay rent and other charges thereunder, shall continue in full force and effect.
4. All subsequent leases and tenancies for the use and occupation of the Premises or any part thereof shall be and are hereby made subject to all of the terms of this Assignment, and Assignor shall further assign and transfer the same to Assignee by Assignment satisfactory to Assignee upon their creation, if Assignee so requests.
5. Assignee shall not be obligated to perform or discharge any obligation under the Leases or under, or by reason of, this Assignment, and the Assignor hereby agrees to indemnify Assignee against, and hold it harmless from, any and all liability, loss or damage which it may or might incur under the Leases or under, or by reason of, this Assignment and of and from any and all claims and demands whatsoever which may be asserted against it by reason of any alleged obligation or undertaking on its part to perform or discharge any of the terms of the Leases. Should Assignee incur any such liability, loss or damage under the Lease or under or by reason of this Assignment, or in defense against any such claims or demands, the amount thereof, including costs, expenses and reasonable attorneys fees, together with interest thereon at the rate set forth in the Note, shall be secured hereby and by the Mortgage, and the Assignor shall reimburse Assignee therefor immediately upon demand.
6. Upon or at any time after default in the payment of any indebtedness secured hereby or in the performance of any obligation, covenant or agreement herein, or in the Note or
Mortgage, or in landlords covenants in any lease covering all or a portion of the Premises (in each event after the passage of any applicable notice, cure, or grace period), Assignee may, to the extent permitted by law, at its option, without notice and without regard to the adequacy of the security for the indebtedness hereby secured, in person or by agent, with or without bringing any action, suit or proceeding, enter upon, and take possession of, the Premises and have, hold, manage, lease, and operate the same on such terms, employing such management agents; and may collect and receive all rents, issues and profits of the Premises, including those past due, with full power to make, from time to time, all alterations, renovations, repairs or replacements thereto as it may deem proper and make, enforce, modify and accept the surrender of leases; fix or modify rents; and to do all things required of, or permitted to, the landlord under the Leases; and do any acts which Assignee deems reasonably necessary to protect the security hereof until all indebtedness secured hereby is paid in full, and either with or without taking possession of the Premises, in its own name, sue for or otherwise collect and receive all rents, issues and profits, including those past due and unpaid, and apply the same, less costs and expenses of operation and collection, including reasonable attorneys fees, management agents fees, and, if Assignee manages the Premises with its own employees, an amount equal to the customary management agents fees charged for similar property in the area where the Premises are located, upon any indebtedness secured hereby in such order as Assignee may determine. Assignee shall not be accountable for more monies than it actually receives from the Premises; nor shall it be liable for failure to collect rents for any reason whatsoever, except for gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of Assignee or its agents, employees or contractors. It is not the intention of the parties hereto that an entry by Assignee upon the Premises, under the terms of this instrument, shall constitute Assignee a mortgagee in possession in contemplation of law, except at the option of the Assignee. Assignor shall facilitate, in all reasonable ways, any action taken by Assignee under this paragraph, and Assignor shall, upon demand by Assignee, execute a written notice to each lessee and occupant directing that rent and all other charges be paid to Assignee.
7. The Assignor represents and warrants that:
a. Assignor has not executed any prior Assignment or pledge of any of its rights, nor are its rights encumbered with respect to the Leases or any of the rents, income or profits due or to become due from the Premises, except as they are encumbered by the Mortgage;
b. The Assignor has good right to assign the Leases and the rents, income and profits due or to become due from the Premises;
c. The Assignor has not done anything which might prevent Assignee from or limit Assignee in acting under the provisions hereof;
d. The Assignor has not accepted rent under the Leases or under any rental or occupancy agreement more than thirty (30) days in advance of its due date;
e. The Leases are valid and enforceable and unmodified except as stated in Exhibit B, and there is no present default by any party thereto; and
f. All present Leases, together with all amendments and modifications thereto and all collateral agreements, letter agreements, waivers and other documents affecting said Leases, are listed on Exhibit B, and correct copies thereof have been furnished to Assignee.
8. So long as there is no default in the payment of any indebtedness secured hereby or in the performance of any obligation, covenant or agreement herein, in the Note evidencing said indebtedness, or in the Mortgage or any other instrument securing said indebtedness, beyond any applicable notice and cure period, the Assignor shall have the right to collect, but not more than thirty (30) days prior to accrual, all rents, issues and profits from the Premises and to retain, use and enjoy the same.
9. In addition to all other rights Assignee may have at law or in equity, Assignee may assign its rights hereunder to any subsequent holder of the Note.
10. Upon the payment in full of all indebtedness secured hereby, as evidenced by the recording or filing of a full release of the Mortgage executed by the then holder of the Mortgage, this Assignment shall become and be void and of no effect.
11. Assignee may take or release other security, may release any party primarily or secondarily liable for any indebtedness secured hereby, may grant extensions, renewals or indulgences with respect to such indebtedness, and may apply any other security therefor held by it to the satisfaction of such indebtedness without prejudice to any of its rights hereunder. Nothing herein contained and no act done or omitted by Assignee, pursuant to the powers and rights granted it herein, shall be deemed to be a waiver by Assignee of its rights and remedies hereunder or under the Note and the Mortgage, but this Assignment is made and accepted without prejudice to any of the rights and remedies possessed by Assignee under the terms thereof. The right of Assignee to collect said indebtedness and to enforce any other security therefor held by it may be exercised by Assignee either prior to, simultaneously with, or subsequent to, any action taken by it hereunder. Any failure by Assignee to insist upon the strict performance by the Assignor of any of the terms and provisions hereof shall not be deemed a waiver of any of the terms and provisions hereof, and Assignee may thereafter insist upon strict performance. This Assignment shall be binding on the Assignor and its successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of Assignee, its successors and assigns. This Assignment may not be changed orally, but only by an agreement in writing and signed by the party or parties against whom enforcement of any waiver, change, modification or discharge is sought.
12. In this instrument, the use of any gender shall include the other genders, and either the singular or the plural shall include the other. This Assignment and the obligations arising hereunder shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Connecticut and any applicable laws of the United States of America, except that at all times the provisions for the creation, perfection and enforcement of the liens and the security interests created pursuant to this Assignment shall be governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.
