Mortgagee may institute any one or more actions of mortgage

The unpaid balance of any judgment shall bear interest at the greater of (a) the statutory rate provided for judgments, or (b) the rate borne by the Tranche A Loans or the Tranche C Loans, as applicable. Without limiting the foregoing, Mortgagee may foreclose this Mortgage and exercise its rights as a secured party for all or any portion of the Liabilities which are then due and payable, subject to the continuing lien of this Mortgage for the balance not then due and payable.

Nothing contained in this Acknowledgment shall be construed as (a) a novation of the Existing Mortgage or the Liabilities or (b) a release or waiver of all or any portion of the grant of a mortgage to the Mortgagee with respect to the Property or the grant to the Mortgagee of a security interest in the Service Equipment pursuant to the Existing Mortgage.

Section 4. Representations and Warranties. The Mortgagor hereby represents and warrants that the representations and warranties made by it in the Existing Mortgage are true and complete in all material respects on and as of the date hereof as if made on and as of the date hereof.
