Mortgagor in this Mortgage, any other Loan Document or the Unsecured Indemnity Agreement are accurate, complete and correct in all material respects.

After giving effect to the Loan, the fair saleable value of Mortgagor’s assets exceeds and will, immediately following the making of the Loan, exceed Mortgagor’s total liabilities, including, without limitation, subordinated, unliquidated, disputed and contingent liabilities. The fair saleable value of Mortgagor’s assets is and will, immediately following the making of the Loan, be greater than Mortgagor’s probable liabilities, including the maximum amount of its contingent liabilities on its debts as such debts become absolute and matured, and Mortgagor’s assets do not and, immediately following the making of the Loan will not, constitute unreasonably small capital to carry out its business as conducted or as proposed to be conducted. Mortgagor does not intend to, and does not believe that it will, incur Indebtedness and liabilities (including contingent liabilities and other commitments) beyond its ability to pay such Indebtedness as they mature (taking into account the timing and amounts of cash to be received by Mortgagor and the amounts to be payable on or in respect of obligations of Mortgagor).

(b)Mortgagor further covenants to warrant and forever defend Mortgagee from and against all persons claiming any interest in the Property other than interests specifically permitted hereunder.

Section 2.04 TAXES, LIENS AND OTHER CHARGES. (a) Unless otherwise paid to Mortgagee as provided in Section 2.05 hereof, Mortgagor shall pay (or shall cause to be paid) all real estate and other taxes and assessments which may be payable, assessed, levied, imposed upon or become a lien on or against any portion of the Property (all of the foregoing items are collectively referred to as the “Imposition(s)”). The Impositions shall be paid not later than the dates on which the particular Imposition would become delinquent and Mortgagor shall produce to Mortgagee receipts of the imposing authority, or other evidence reasonably satisfactory to Mortgagee, evidencing the payment of the Imposition in full, except with regards to Impositions paid by Mortgagee pursuant to Section 2.05 hereof. If Mortgagor elects by appropriate legal action to contest any Imposition, Mortgagor shall not be required to pay the Imposition provided that the contest operates to prevent enforcement or collection of the Imposition, or the sale or forfeiture of, the Property, and is prosecuted with due diligence and continuity. Upon termination of any proceeding or contest, Mortgagor shall pay the amount of the Imposition as finally determined in the proceeding or contest. In addition, Mortgagor covenants and agrees to pay (or cause to be paid) all water and sewer charges, vault and other license or permit fees, liens, fines, penalties, interest and other similar public and private claims which may be payable, assessed, levied, imposed upon or become a lien on or against any portion of the Property (“Other Charges”) on or before the date such charges, fees, liens, fines, penalties, interest and claims become delinquent and upon the request of Mortgagee, Mortgagor shall produce to Mortgagee receipts of the imposing authority, or other evidence reasonably satisfactory to Mortgagee, evidencing the payment of such amount in full. If Mortgagor elects by appropriate legal action to contest any Other Charges, Mortgagor shall not be required to pay such Other Charges provided that the contest operates to prevent enforcement or collection of such Other Charges, or the sale or forfeiture of, the Property, and is prosecuted with due diligence and continuity. Upon termination of any proceeding or contest, Mortgagor shall pay the amount of the Other Charges as finally determined in the proceeding or contest.






(b)In the event of the passage, after the Execution Date, of any law which deducts from the value of the Property, for the purposes of taxation, any lien or security interest encumbering the Property, or changing in any way the existing laws regarding the taxation of mortgages, deeds of trust and/or security agreements or debts secured by these instruments, or changing the manner for the collection of any such taxes, and the law has the effect of imposing payment of any Impositions upon Mortgagee, at Mortgagee’s option, the Secured Indebtedness shall become due and payable without any prepayment fee upon one hundred twenty (120) days’ prior written notice to Mortgagor. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, Mortgagee’s election to accelerate the Loan shall not be effective if (1) Mortgagor is permitted by law (including, without limitation, applicable interest rate laws) to, and actually does, pay the Imposition or the increased portion of the Imposition and (2) Mortgagor agrees in writing to pay or reimburse Mortgagee in accordance with Section 11.06 hereof for the payment of any such Imposition which becomes payable at any time when the Loan is outstanding.

Section 2.05 ESCROW DEPOSITS. (a) Without limiting the effect of Section 2.04 and Section 3.01, Mortgagor shall pay to Mortgagee monthly on the same date the monthly installment is payable under the Note, an amount equal to one‑twelfth (1/12th) of the amounts Mortgagee reasonably estimates are necessary to pay, on an annualized basis, (a) all Impositions and (b) the premiums for the insurance policies required under this Mortgage (collectively the “Premiums”) until such time as Mortgagor has deposited an amount equal to the annual charges for these items and on demand, from time to time, shall pay to Mortgagee any additional amounts necessary to pay the Premiums and Impositions. Mortgagor will furnish to Mortgagee bills for Impositions and Premiums thirty (30) days before Impositions become delinquent and such Premiums become due for payment. If Mortgagee has the right hereunder to escrow sums as described in this Section 2.05 and Mortgagee is in fact holding such sums (as opposed to the applicable bank pursuant to the Lockbox Agreement), no amounts paid as Impositions or Premiums shall be deemed to be trust funds and these funds may be commingled with the general funds of Mortgagee but shall be held by Mortgagee in a non‑segregated interest‑bearing account, provided, however, that Mortgagee shall not guarantee any particular rate of return. All amounts held under this Section 2.05 shall be used only for the payment of the Premiums or Impositions for which the amounts were deposited.

(b)Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2.05(a) to the contrary, provided no Event of Default or Lockbox Event has occurred under the Loan Documents, the Guaranty or the Unsecured Indemnity Agreement, Mortgagee shall not require an escrow for the Impositions or the Premiums (collectively, the “Escrow Waivers”), provided, with respect to the Premiums only, Mortgagor shall deliver to Mortgagee on or before the date on which any Premiums become delinquent, evidence satisfactory to Mortgagee that such Premiums have been paid in full, including, without limitation, certificates of insurance evidencing the insurance policies required pursuant to Section 3.01 of the Mortgage evidencing compliance with such Section 3.01. Each Event of Default, Lockbox Event or failure, with respect to Premiums only to provide the information provided in this Section 2.05(b), shall constitute a “Triggering Event”.

(c)Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2.05(b) to the contrary, in the event Mortgagor shall cure the Event of Default referred to in Section 2.05(b) (provided Mortgagee has accepted said cure) or Mortgagor shall have cured a Lockbox Event or Mortgagor shall have provided the evidence regarding payment of Premiums, as set forth in Section 2.05(b) hereof, Mortgagee shall reinstate the Escrow Waivers and release all escrowed funds within five (5) Business Days of the applicable cure, provided, however, the Escrow Waivers shall be permanently terminated upon the occurrence of the third Triggering Event.

Such security shall be in an amount equal to the excess of the total unpaid amounts with respect to such alteration (other than such amounts to be paid or reimbursed by tenants under the Leases) over the Threshold Amount and, if Mortgagor has not timely paid for the costs and expenses of the alteration, applied from time to time at the option of Mortgagee to pay for such alteration or to terminate the alteration and restore the Property to the extent necessary to prevent any material adverse effect on the use, operation or value (including the net operating income) of the Property.

(ii)All of the policies referred to in this Section 3.01 shall provide that the policy shall not be materially changed (other than to increase the coverage provided thereby) or canceled without at least thirty (30) days’ written notice to Mortgagee and any other party named therein as an additional insured; provided, however, in the event that Mortgagor is informed that the insurance coverage required to be maintained pursuant to Section 3.01(a) above is cancelled, or will be cancelled, Mortgagor shall immediately notify Mortgagee of such cancellation after Mortgagor receives such notice;

(iii)the issuers thereof shall give written notice to Mortgagee if the policy has not been renewed fifteen (15) days prior to its expiration; and

(iv)Mortgagee shall not be liable for any Premiums thereon or subject to any assessments thereunder.

(v)If at any time Mortgagee is not in receipt of written evidence that all insurance required hereunder is in full force and effect, Mortgagee shall have the right, upon prior notice to Mortgagor, to take such action as Mortgagee deems necessary to protect its interest in the Property, including, without limitation, the obtaining of such insurance coverage as Mortgagee in its sole discretion deems appropriate.

The Net Proceeds Deficiency deposited with Mortgagee shall be held by Mortgagee and shall be disbursed for costs actually incurred in connection with the Restoration on the same conditions applicable to the disbursement of the Net Proceeds, and until so disbursed pursuant to this Section 7.04(b) shall constitute additional security for the Debt and other obligations under the Loan Documents.

(vii)The excess, if any, of the Net Proceeds and the remaining balance, if any, of the Net Proceeds Deficiency deposited with Mortgagee after the Casualty Consultant certifies to Mortgagee





that the Restoration has been completed in accordance with the provisions of this Section 7.04(b), and the receipt by Mortgagee of evidence reasonably satisfactory to Mortgagee that all costs incurred in connection with the Restoration have been paid in full, shall be (a) if the Net Proceeds are Insurance Proceeds, remitted by Mortgagee to Mortgagor, provided no Event of Default shall have occurred and shall be continuing under the Note, this Mortgage, any of the other Loan Documents, the Guaranty, or the Unsecured Indemnity Agreement, or (b) if the Net Proceeds are Condemnation Proceeds, be applied by Mortgagee, subject to Section 7.04(c), toward the payment of the Debt (without any Prepayment Fee) whether or not then due and payable in such order, priority and proportions as Mortgagee in its sole discretion shall deem proper.

(c)All Net Proceeds not required (i) to be made available for the Restoration or (ii) to be returned to Mortgagor as excess Net Proceeds pursuant to Section 7.04(b)(vii), may be retained and applied by Mortgagee toward the payment of the Debt (without any Prepayment Fee) whether or not then due and payable in such order, priority and proportions as Mortgagee in its sole discretion shall deem proper (including, in the event of severance of the Note and other Loan Documents into separate notes, mortgages and other security documents as provided in this Mortgage or in any of the other Loan Documents), or, at the discretion of Mortgagee, the same may be paid, either in whole or in part, to Mortgagor for such purposes as Mortgagee shall designate, in its discretion.

(d)In the event of foreclosure of the Mortgage with respect to the Property, or other transfer of title to the Property in extinguishment in whole or in part of the Debt, all right, title and interest of Mortgagor in and to the insurance policies that are not blanket policies then in force concerning the Property and all proceeds payable thereunder shall thereupon vest in the purchaser at such foreclosure or Mortgagee or other transferee in the event of such other transfer of title.

(e)Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, (i) the provisions of the REA and the Major Leases with respect to insurance proceeds for the Restoration shall control in the event of any conflict between the provisions of the REA and/or the Major Leases and the provisions of this Mortgage, or any of the Loan Documents, and (ii) Mortgagee hereby agrees to apply the proceeds of insurance to the Restoration to the extent required by, and in accordance with, the REA and/or the Major Leases.

(b)Power of Sale. To the extent permitted by applicable law, institute a non‑judicial foreclosure proceeding in compliance with applicable law in effect on the date foreclosure is commenced for Mortgagee to sell the Property either as a whole or in separate parcels as Mortgagee may determine at public sale or sales to the highest bidder for cash, in order to pay the Secured Indebtedness.

Mortgagor and Liable Parties shall be deemed to have consented to the appointment of the receiver. The collection or receipt of any of the Rents and Profits by Mortgagee or any receiver shall not affect or cure any Event of Default; and/or

(e)Other. Take such action and exercise its rights and remedies, procedural and substantive, as may be allowable now or in the future by statutory or case law, or in equity.

Section 11.03 APPLICATION OF PROCEEDS OF SALE.

Each party has received the advice of counsel with respect to this waiver.

Section 11.05 MORTGAGEE’S RIGHT TO PERFORM MORTGAGOR’S OBLIGATIONS. Mortgagor agrees that, if Mortgagor fails to perform any act or to pay any money which Mortgagor is required to perform or pay under the Loan Documents or the Unsecured Indemnity Agreement, Mortgagee may, after the occurrence of an Event of Default, make the payment or perform the act at the cost and expense of Mortgagor and in Mortgagor’s name or in its own name.

Section 11.08 WAIVER OF CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES. Mortgagor covenants and agrees that in no event shall Mortgagee be liable for consequential damages, and to the fullest extent permitted by law, Mortgagor expressly waives all existing and future claims that it may have against Mortgagee for consequential damages, except with respect to claims arising from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Mortgagee.






Section 11.09 ATTORNEY‑IN‑FACT. Mortgagor hereby irrevocably appoints and constitutes Mortgagee as Mortgagor’s true and lawful attorney‑in‑fact, coupled with an interest and with full power of substitution, for the purpose of, after the occurrence of an Event of Default, taking any of the actions described herein and all acts incidental thereto including, without limitation, the right to collect and receive the Rents and Profits and to preserve any rights of Mortgagor whatsoever in respect of any part of the Property. The exercise by Mortgagee of any of its options or rights pursuant to this Mortgage shall not be considered a waiver by Mortgagee of any default or Event of Default by Mortgagor under the Note or this Mortgage or any of the other Loan Documents or the Unsecured Indemnity Agreement.

MORTGAGOR AGREEMENTS AND FURTHER ASSURANCES

Section 12.01 PARTICIPATION AND SALE OF LOAN. (a) Mortgagee may sell, transfer or assign its entire interest or one or more interests (including, without limitation, participation interests) in the Loan and the Loan Documents, the Unsecured Indemnity Agreement and the Guaranty, at any time and from time to time, including, without limitation, its rights and obligations as servicer of the Loan and may issue mortgage pass‑through certificates or other securities evidencing a beneficial interest in one or more rated or unrated public offering(s) or private placement(s), including depositing the Loan with a trust or trusts that may issue Securities. MetLife shall be the initial servicer. In no event shall Mortgagor be responsible for payment of any servicer’s fees. Mortgagee may forward (on a confidential basis, except as required by law) to each investor in such Securities and/or to each purchaser, transferee, assignee, servicer, or participant of the Loan, (each, an “Investor”), any prospective Investor or any Rating Agency rating or assigning value to such Securities, all documents and information which Mortgagee now has or may hereafter acquire relating to the Secured Indebtedness and to Mortgagor, any SPE Entity, or any Liable Parties and the Property, whether furnished by Mortgagor, Liable Party or otherwise, as Mortgagee determines necessary or desirable. Mortgagee shall not sell, transfer or assign an interest in the Loan to any Investor unless and until such Investor shall have delivered to Mortgagor such evidence as Mortgagor may reasonably request to evidence such Investor exemption from the withholding of any tax imposed by an applicable jurisdiction in connection with the payment of interest and other sums due to it under the Loan, the Loan Documents, the Guaranty, and the Unsecured Indemnity Agreement. If Mortgagee or any Investor holding a direct interest in the Loan with respect to such Investor’s interest in the Loan issues mortgage pass‑through certificates or other securities evidencing a beneficial interest in a rated or unrated public offering or private placement, including depositing the Loan with a trust that may issue Securities, Mortgagee or such Investor, as applicable, shall send notice to Mortgagor and to each other Investor holding a direct interest in the Loan.

(b)In addition, Mortgagor acknowledges that Mortgagee may release or disclose to potential purchasers or transferees of the Loan or any portion thereof, or potential participants in the Loan (on a confidential basis except as required by law), originals or copies of the Loan Documents, the Guaranty, and the Unsecured Indemnity Agreement, title information, engineering reports, financial statements, operating statements, appraisals, leases, rent rolls, and all other materials, documents and information in Mortgagee’s possession or which Mortgagee is entitled to receive under the Loan Documents, the Guaranty, and the Unsecured Indemnity Agreement with respect to the Loan, Mortgagor, Liable Party or the Property. Mortgagor and Liable Party shall provide estoppel certificates in a form reasonably satisfactory to Mortgagee and reasonably requested updates of prior information previously delivered to Mortgagee with respect to the Loan to such Investor, such prospective Investors and/or such Rating Agency (in form and substance to their reasonable satisfaction) as may reasonably be required by Mortgagee provided that such documents do not cause Mortgagor or Liable Party to incur any liability, potential liability, or any cost or expense. Mortgagor shall execute such non‑material amendments to the Loan Documents and the Unsecured Indemnity





Agreement as may be reasonably requested by Mortgagee or the Rating Agencies to effect the securitization or assignment; provided however, that Mortgagor shall not be required to modify or amend any Loan Documents if such modification or amendment would (i) change the interest rate, the stated maturity or the amortization of principal set forth in the Note, or (ii) modify or amend any other material economic term of the Loan; provided, further, however, that neither securitization nor anything else contained in this Section 12.01 shall diminish Mortgagor’s or Liable Party’s rights or increase its obligations under the Loan Documents, the Guaranty, and the Unsecured Indemnity Agreement, or require Mortgagor to make any additional representations or warranties or incur any additional liabilities. All costs of securitization and other transactions permitted under this Section 12.01 shall be paid by Mortgagee, including reasonable out‑of‑pocket expenses of Mortgagor.

(c)Mortgagee shall have the right, at any time and from time to time, to split or divide any one or more Note(s) into two or more promissory notes, each of which shall be secured by this Mortgage. To that end, Mortgagor shall execute, acknowledge and deliver, or cause to be executed, acknowledged and delivered by the then owner of the Property, to Mortgagee and/or its designee or designees substitute notes in such principal amounts aggregating not more than the then unpaid amount of the Secured Indebtedness and containing the same terms and provisions as those contained in the Notes, and such other documents and instruments as may be required by Mortgagee, provided, however, that nothing contained in this paragraph (c) shall diminish Mortgagor’s or Liable Party’s rights or increase its obligations under the Loan Documents, the Guaranty, or the Unsecured Indemnity Agreement, or require Mortgagor to make any additional representations or warranties or incur any additional liabilities.

Section 12.02 REPLACEMENT OF NOTE. Upon notice to Mortgagor of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of any Note, Mortgagor will execute and deliver, in lieu of the applicable original Note, a replacement note, identical in form and substance to the applicable Note and dated as of the Execution Date. Upon the execution and delivery of the replacement note, all references in any of the Loan Documents, the Guaranty and/or the Unsecured Indemnity Agreement to the applicable Note shall refer to the replacement note and all references in any of the Loan Documents, the Guaranty and/or the Unsecured Indemnity Agreement to the applicable Note shall include the replacement note.

Section 12.03 MORTGAGOR’S ESTOPPEL. Within ten (10) days after a request by Mortgagee, Mortgagor shall furnish an acknowledged written statement in form satisfactory to Mortgagee (a) setting forth the amount of the Secured Indebtedness, (b) stating either that no known offsets or defenses exist against the Secured Indebtedness, or if any offsets or defenses are alleged to exist, their nature and extent, and (c) stating whether any known default then exists under the Loan Documents, the Guaranty, or the Unsecured Indemnity Agreement, or any known event has occurred and is continuing, which, with the lapse of time, the giving of notice, or both, would constitute such a default.

Section 12.04 FURTHER ASSURANCES. Mortgagor shall, without expense to Mortgagee, execute, acknowledge and deliver all further acts, deeds, conveyances, mortgages, deeds of trust, assignments, security agreements, and financing statements as Mortgagee shall from time to time reasonably require, to assure, convey, assign, transfer and confirm unto Mortgagee the Property and rights conveyed or assigned by this Mortgage or for carrying out the intention of the terms of this Mortgage or any of the other Loan Documents, the Guaranty, or the Unsecured Indemnity Agreement, or for filing, refiling, registering, reregistering, recording or rerecording this Mortgage. If Mortgagor fails to comply with the terms of this Section, Mortgagee may, after the occurrence of an Event of Default, at Mortgagor’s expense, perform Mortgagor’s obligations for and in the name of Mortgagor, and Mortgagor hereby irrevocably appoints Mortgagee as its attorney‑in‑fact to do so. The appointment of Mortgagee as attorney‑in‑fact is coupled with an interest.

SECURITY AGREEMENT

Section 13.01 SECURITY AGREEMENT. THIS MORTGAGE CREATES A LIEN ON THE PROPERTY. IN ADDITION, TO THE EXTENT THE PROPERTY IS PERSONAL PROPERTY OR FIXTURES UNDER APPLICABLE LAW, THIS MORTGAGE CONSTITUTES A SECURITY AGREEMENT UNDER THE NEW JERSEY UNIFORM COMMERCIAL CODE (THE “U.C.C.”) AND ANY OTHER APPLICABLE LAW AND IS FILED AS A FIXTURE FILING. UPON THE OCCURRENCE OF AN EVENT OF DEFAULT, MORTGAGEE MAY, AT ITS OPTION, PURSUE ANY AND ALL RIGHTS AND REMEDIES AVAILABLE TO A SECURED PARTY WITH RESPECT TO ANY PORTION OF THE PROPERTY, AND/OR MORTGAGEE MAY, AT ITS OPTION, PROCEED AS TO ALL OR ANY PART OF THE PROPERTY IN ACCORDANCE WITH MORTGAGEE’S RIGHTS AND REMEDIES WITH RESPECT TO THE LIEN CREATED BY THIS MORTGAGE. THIS FINANCING STATEMENT SHALL REMAIN IN EFFECT AS A FIXTURE FILING UNTIL THIS MORTGAGE IS RELEASED OR SATISFIED OF RECORD.

Section 13.02 REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. Mortgagor represents, warrants and covenants as follows:

(a)Mortgagor owns the Personal Property free from any lien, security interest, encumbrance or adverse claim, except as otherwise permitted hereunder or expressly approved by Mortgagee in writing. Mortgagor will notify Mortgagee of, and will protect, defend and indemnify Mortgagee against, all claims and demands of all persons at any time claiming any rights or interest in the Personal Property.







(b)The Personal Property has not been used and shall not be used or bought for personal, family, or household purposes, but shall be bought and used solely for the purpose of carrying on Mortgagor’s business.

(c)Mortgagor will not remove the Personal Property without the prior written consent of Mortgagee, not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed, except in the ordinary course of Mortgagor’s business. Any items removed which are reasonably necessary for the operation of the Property shall be promptly replaced by Mortgagor with other Personal Property of value equal to or greater than the value of the replaced Personal Property.

Section 13.03 CHARACTERIZATION OF PROPERTY. The grant of a security interest to Mortgagee in this Mortgage shall not be construed to limit or impair the lien of this Mortgage or the rights of Mortgagee with respect to any property which is real property or which the parties have agreed to treat as real property. To the fullest extent permitted by law, everything used in connection with the production of Rents and Profits is, and at all times and for all purposes and in all proceedings, both legal and equitable, shall be regarded as real property, irrespective of whether or not the same is physically attached to the Land and/or Improvements.

Section 13.04 PROTECTION AGAINST PURCHASE MONEY SECURITY INTERESTS. It is understood and agreed that in order to protect Mortgagee from the effect of U.C.C. Section 9‑313, as amended from time to time and as enacted in the State, in the event that Mortgagor intends to purchase any goods which may become fixtures attached to the Property, or any part of the Property, and such goods will be subject to a purchase money security interest held by a seller or any other party:

(a)Except as permitted under clause (t) of the definition of “Special Purpose Entity” in Section 2.10 hereof, before executing any security agreement or other document evidencing or perfecting the security interest, Mortgagor shall obtain the prior written approval of Mortgagee. All requests for such written approval shall be in writing and contain the following information: (i) a description of the fixtures (ii) the address at which the fixtures will be located; and (iii) the name and address of the proposed holder and proposed amount of the security interest.

(b)Mortgagor shall pay all sums and perform all obligations secured by the security agreement. A default by Mortgagor under the security agreement shall constitute a default under this Mortgage. If Mortgagor fails to make any payment on an obligation secured by a purchase money security interest in the Personal Property or any fixtures, Mortgagee, at its option, may pay the secured amount and Mortgagee shall be subrogated to the rights of the holder of the purchase money security interest.

(c)Except for the financing permitted under clause (t) of the definition of “Special Purpose Entity” in Section 2.10 hereof, Mortgagee shall have the right to acquire by assignment from the holder of the security interest for the Personal Property or fixtures, all contract rights, accounts receivable, negotiable or non‑negotiable instruments, or other evidence of indebtedness and to enforce the security interest as assignee.

(d)The provisions of subparagraphs (b) and (c) of this Section 13.04 shall not apply if the goods which may become fixtures are of at least equivalent value and quality as the Personal Property being replaced and if the rights of the party holding the security interest are expressly subordinated to the lien and security interest of this Mortgage in a manner satisfactory to Mortgagee.

In addition to the foregoing, Mortgagor hereby agrees to defend, indemnify and to save Mortgagee harmless from and against all loss, damage, liability and expense (including attorney’s fees and expenses) which Mortgagee may sustain by reason of any lien filed against the Property pursuant to the Spill Act or any other environmental federal, state or local laws, ordinances, rules or regulations.

LEASING GUIDELINES
Mortgagor may, at all times, lease the Property in its discretion reasonably exercised in a manner consistent with its past practice and then current market conditions existing in the New York‑New Jersey‑Connecticut metropolitan area. Each Lease and License Agreement entered into after the Execution Date (including the renewal or extension on or after the Execution Date of any Lease entered into prior to the Execution Date if the rent payable during such renewal or extension, or a formula or other method to compute such rent, is not provided for in such Lease (such a renewal or extension a “Renewal Lease”)) either (a) (i) shall provide for payment of rent and all other material amounts payable thereunder at rates at least equal to the fair market rental value comparable to existing local market rates and terms (taking into account the type and quality of the tenant as of the date such Lease is executed by Mortgagor), contain then prevailing practices with respect to tenant concessions, tenant expense pass‑throughs, common area maintenance charges, and incentives in comparable shopping centers in the New York‑New Jersey‑Connecticut metropolitan area, and (ii) is an arms‑length transaction with a bona fide, independent third party tenant, or (b) shall not impair the value of the Property taken as a whole and is an arms‑length transaction with a bona fide third party tenant, or (c) shall be consented to by Mortgagee. Mortgagor may, without the consent of Mortgagee, amend, modify or waive the provision of any Lease or terminate, reduce rents under or shorten the term of any Lease or License Agreement provided that such action (taking into account, in the case of a termination, reduction in rent or shortening of term, the planned alternative use of the affected space) does not impair the value of the Property taken as a whole.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Debt Yield with respect to the Loan falls below 6.75% (the “Minimum Debt Yield”), all Leases thereafter entered into by Mortgage that (i) cover over five thousand (5,000) square feet, or (ii) have lease terms longer than ten (10) years, or (iii) are not substantially on the standard form of lease approved by Mortgagee, must be approved by Mortgagee, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Notwithstanding the foregoing, after the Debt Yield falls below the Minimum Debt Yield, if the Debt Yield shall thereafter rise to or above the Minimum Debt Yield and remain at or above the Minimum Debt Yield for six (6) consecutive months, the original leasing guidelines set forth above shall again become operative.
Mortgagee shall respond to a request for Mortgagor’s approval of a Lease within fifteen (15) Business Days, with respect to any Major Lease, and ten (10) Business Days, with respect to any other tenants, and shall either (a) approve the draft, or (b) provide written comments or objections to the draft. Provided that Mortgagor prominently captions its request for approval in the following manner: “METLIFE'S FAILURE TO RESPOND TO THIS REQUEST FOR APPROVAL OF THIS LEASE WITHIN FIFTEEN(15)/TEN (10) [AS APPLICABLE] BUSINESS DAYS SHALL RESULT IN METLIFE'S APPROVAL OF THIS LEASE BEING DEEMED AUTOMATICALLY GIVEN”, in the event that Mortgagee fails to so respond to such request for approval not later than the tenth (10th)/fifteenth (15th) (as applicable) Business Day after Mortgagee’s receipt of a Mortgagor’s request and the foregoing information, Mortgagee shall be deemed to have given such approval.
