Mortgagor acknowledges that the Premises do not constitute agricultural real estate, as said term is defined in Section 15-1201 of the Foreclosure Act, or residential real estate as defined in Section 15-1219 of the Foreclosure Act.

 

(i)                                     deliver to the Mortgagee within 30 days of the end of each calendar quarter throughout the term of this Mortgage a Quarterly Construction Update in the form of Exhibit B attached hereto which Mortgagor shall make available to any individual, corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or unincorporated organization, limited liability company, joint stock company or other similar organization, government or any political subdivision thereof, court, or any other legal entity, whether acting in an individual, fiduciary or other capacity (all of the foregoing collectively, “Persons”; each individually, as a “Person”) who holds 10% or more of the Series B Bonds.

 

Mortgagor hereby further covenants with and warrants to Mortgagee that as of the execution and delivery of this Mortgage, Mortgagor owns the Premises and has good, indefeasible estate therein, in fee simple and that the Premises are free from all encumbrances whatsoever (and any claim of any other Person thereto) other than those encumbrances set forth on Exhibit C attached hereto or otherwise permitted by Mortgagee in writing (“Permitted Exceptions”);

 

3.03                           Property Taxes and Contest of Liens. Mortgagor shall be responsible for the payment, when first due and owing and before delinquency and before any penalty attaches, of all real estate and personal property taxes and assessments (general or special), water charges, sewer charges, and any other charges, fees, taxes, claims, levies, expenses, liens, and assessments, ordinary or extraordinary, governmental or nongovernmental, statutory or otherwise, that may be asserted against the Premises or any part thereof or interest therein (“Real Estate Taxes”).  Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Mortgagor may, in good faith and with reasonable diligence, contest the validity or amount of any such Real Estate Taxes as well as any mechanics’, materialmen’s or other liens or claims of lien upon the Premises (collectively “Contested Liens”), provided that:

 

(a)                                  such contest shall have the effect of preventing the collection of the Contested Liens and the sale or forfeiture of Premises or any part thereof or interest therein to satisfy the same; and

 

(b)                                 Mortgagor shall first notify Mortgagee in writing of the intention of Mortgagor to contest the same; and

6



 

(b)                                 Mortgagee is also authorized in the place and stead of Mortgagor to make any payment relating to any apparent or threatened adverse title, lien, claim of lien, encumbrance, claim, charge or payment otherwise relating to any other purpose but not enumerated in this Section whenever, in Mortgagee’s reasonable judgment and discretion, such advance seems necessary to protect the full security intended to be created by this Mortgage.

 

(c)                                  All such advances authorized by this Section 3.04 shall constitute additional Obligations and shall be repaid by Mortgagor to Mortgagee upon demand with interest from the date of such advance at the interest rate set forth in the Series B Bonds as the interest rate then applicable to the Series B Bonds.

 

3.05                           Condemnation.

 

(a)                                  Mortgagor shall give Mortgagee prompt notice of any proceedings, instituted or threatened, seeking condemnation or taking by eminent domain or any like process (a “Taking”), of all or any part of the Real Estate, including any easement thereon or appurtenance thereto (including severance of, consequential damage to, or change in grade of, streets), and shall deliver to Mortgagee copies of any and all papers served in connection with any such proceeding.

 

(b)                                 Mortgagor hereby assigns, transfers and sets over unto Mortgagee the entire proceeds of any and all awards resulting from any taking (the “Award”). Mortgagee is hereby authorized to collect and receive from the condemnation authorities the entire Award and is further authorized to give appropriate receipts and acquittance therefor.

 

(c)                                  Upon any Taking, any Award shall be applied, in Mortgagee’s sole discretion: (i) as a deposit into an escrow to be established and maintained by Mortgagee (the “Escrow Account”), for the cost of restoring, replacing, repairing or rebuilding (collectively, “Restoring”) the Appurtenances or any part thereof; or (ii) as a deposit into the Collateral Account (as defined in Section 3. l0(b)(iv) below) to be treated as the other funds from time to time deposited into the Collateral Account in accordance with Section 3. l0(b)(iv) are so treated.

 

If the Award is deposited into the Escrow Account, said Award, and any and all interest earned thereon (collectively, the “Escrowed Funds”), shall be deemed to be held by Mortgagee as additional security for the payment of the principal and interest on the Series B Bonds. If Mortgagee acquires title to the Premises pursuant to the Foreclosure Act (as defined in Section 5.01(a) below) then the Escrowed Funds shall be paid to the Bondholders in an amount not to exceed the outstanding principal and interest on the Series B Bonds.

 

3.06                           Restoration Using Escrowed Funds.

 

(a)                                  If Mortgagee elects to make any Escrowed Funds available for Restoring the Real Estate and Mortgagee has received the consent of a majority of the Bondholders to make any such Escrowed Funds available and Mortgagor is desirous of Restoring the Real Estate, Mortgagor shall complete, in form and with supporting documentation reasonably required by Mortgagee, an estimate of the cost of Restoring the Real Estate to the condition in which it existed prior to such Taking, free from any security interest in, lien or encumbrances on, or reservation of title to, such Real Estate.

 

(b)                                 The Escrowed Funds necessary to complete said Restoring shall be held by

 

7



 

Mortgagee, or if Mortgagee so desires, a disbursing agent selected by Mortgagee.  Said Escrowed Funds may be invested using Mortgagor’s taxpayer identification number in an interest bearing account mutually acceptable to Mortgagor and Mortgagee. The costs and expenses of administering disbursements shall be paid by Mortgagor. If the amount of the Escrowed Funds are insufficient to cover the cost of Restoring the Real Estate, Mortgagor shall pay the cost of such restoration in excess of the Escrowed Funds before being entitled to any reimbursement from the Escrowed Funds.

 

(c)                                  Subject to Mortgagee’s right to limit the number of disbursements, the Escrowed Funds shall be disbursed from time to time upon Mortgagee’s being furnished with architect’s certificates, waivers of lien, contractor’s sworn statements, and such other evidences as Mortgagee or any disbursing agent may reasonably require to verify the cost and fact of said restoration. Under no circumstances shall any portion of the Escrowed Funds be released until Mortgagee has been reasonably assured that the Escrowed Funds remaining after the requested disbursement will be sufficient to complete the required restoration. No payment made prior to the final completion of restoration shall exceed ninety-five percent (95%) of the value of the work performed from time to time by contractors or subcontractors which have not completed their work.  Any Escrowed Funds remaining after restoration shall be deposited into the Collateral Account and treated as the other funds from time to time deposited into the Collateral Account in accordance with Section 3.l0(b)(iv) are so treated.

 

3.07                           Restrictions on Transfer.

 

(a)                                  Mortgagor shall not without the prior written consent of Mortgagee:

 

(i)                                     create, effect, lease, contract for, commit or consent to, or suffer or permit any conveyance, sale, assignment, transfer, hypothecation, lien, pledge, mortgage, security interest, or other encumbrance or alienation of the Premises or any part thereof or any interest therein or title thereto other than the Permitted Exceptions and Contested Liens or;

 

(ii)                                  fail to pay when the same shall become due all lawful claims and demands of mechanics, materialmen, laborers and others which, if unpaid, might result in, or permit the creation of, a lien on the Premises or on the revenues, rents, issues, income and profits arising therefrom, subject to Mortgagor’s right to contest any such lien under Section 3.03 hereinabove.

 

(b)                                             Notwithstanding anything in this Section 3.07 to the contrary: (i) any general or limited partner of Mortgagor shall have the right to sell, convey, transfer, assign, pledge, mortgage, or otherwise alienate any or all of such general or limited partner’s interest in Mortgagor (by way of transfers of stock ownership, partnership interests, or otherwise) or in any corporation, limited liability corporation or partnership which constitutes or comprises any portion of any of Mortgagor’s general or limited partners; and (ii) Mortgagor shall have the right to take any and all actions permitted under the terms and provisions of Section 3.10.

 

3.08                                       Continuation of Covenants and Remedies.

 

If Mortgagee gives its written consent to a sale or transfer, whether by operation of law, voluntarily or otherwise, of all or any part of the Premises, or to the partial release from the lien of this Mortgage of any portion of the Premises, Mortgagor shall nevertheless not be deemed to be

 

8



 

released or discharged from any of its covenants under this Mortgage with respect to the Premises which have not been so sold, transferred or released, and Mortgagee shall not be deemed to have waived its right to exercise its remedies under this Mortgage as to any portion of the Premises remaining subject to the lien hereof.

 

3.09                           Inspection of Premises.

 

Mortgagor hereby grants to Mortgagee, its agents, employees, consultants and contractors, upon reasonable advance notice to Mortgagor and during the normal business hours of Mortgagor, the right to enter upon the Real Estate for the purpose of making any and all inspections, reports, tests, inquiries and reviews as Mortgagee (in its sole and absolute discretion) deems necessary to assess the then current condition of the Premises, or for the purpose of performing any other acts which Mortgagee is authorized to perform under this Mortgage. Mortgagor will cooperate with Mortgagee to facilitate each such entry and the accomplishment of such purposes.

(i) “Applicable Laws” shall mean the Act, the Series B Ordinance, the Annexation Agreement, the Redevelopment Plan, any and all Series Ordinances and all other federal, state and municipal laws, ordinances, rules and regulations governing the construction of any improvements to the Real Estate pursuant to and in accordance with the Redevelopment Plan.

Anything elsewhere herein contained to the contrary notwithstanding: (a) in the event that any provision in this Mortgage shall be inconsistent with any provision of the Foreclosure Act, the provisions of the Foreclosure Act shall take precedence over the provisions of this Mortgage, but shall not invalidate or render unenforceable any other provision of this Mortgage that can be construed in a manner consistent with the Foreclosure Act; and (b) if any provision of this Mortgage shall grant to Mortgagee any rights or remedies upon default of Mortgagor which are more limited than the rights that would otherwise be vested in Mortgagee under the Foreclosure Act in the absence of said provision, Mortgagee shall be vested with the rights granted in the Foreclosure Act to the full extent permitted by law; and (c) without limiting the generality of the foregoing, all expenses incurred by Mortgagee to the extent reimbursable under Sections 15-1510 and 15-1512 of the Foreclosure Act, whether incurred before or after any decree or judgment of foreclosure, shall be added to the Obligations or by the judgment of foreclosure.

Profits Memorandum), and to any and all amendments, modifications, extensions, replacements or renewals thereof including the New Bank Mortgage (provided, however that Beal Bank’s execution thereof does not constitute a consent under either the Bank Mortgage or Net Profits Agreement by Beal Bank to any future actions), subject to the limitations contained in the Intercreditor Agreement and to any and all advances heretofore made or hereafter to be made under the Series B Ordinance Documents, provided, however, notwithstanding Section 6.13 hereof the amount of the liability under the Series B Bonds pursuant to which the lien of the Bank Mortgage is subordinate shall not exceed the aggregate of (A) the principal amount of the Series B Bonds on the date hereof ($14,000,000), as reduced by any redemption after the date hereof, (B) any and all accrued and unpaid interest on the Series B Bonds from and after the date hereof, and (C) expenses of the Trustee incurred in connection with enforcing the terms of this Mortgage and the Intercreditor Agreement. The terms and provisions of the lntercreditor Agreement are incorporated herein as if set forth verbatim and shall govern and control the terms and provisions pursuant to which the lien of the Bank Mortgage is subject and subordinate to the lien of this Mortgage.

 

6.17                           Quarterly Construction Update.  Mortgagee shall provide to any Series B Bondholder of not less than 10% of the principal amount of the Series B Bonds then outstanding within thirty (30) days after the end of each calendar quarter throughout the term of this Mortgage a copy of the Quarterly Construction Update delivered by Mortgagor pursuant to Section 3.02(i).
