Section 8.3            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 Borrower and without releasing Borrower from any obligation hereunder, make any payment or do any act required of Borrower hereunder in such manner and to such extent as Mortgagee may deem necessary to protect the security hereof.  Mortgagee is authorized to enter upon the Property for such purposes, or appear in, defend, or bring any action or proceeding to protect its interest in the Property or to foreclose this Security Instrument or collect the Debt, and the cost and expense thereof (including reasonable out-of-pocket attorneys’ fees to the extent permitted by law), with interest as provided in this Section 8.3, shall constitute a portion of the Debt and shall be due and payable to Mortgagee upon demand.  All such costs and expenses incurred by Mortgagee in remedying such Event of Default or act or in appearing in, defending, or bringing any such action or proceeding shall bear interest at any default rate specified in the Loan Agreement, if any (the “Default Rate”), for the period after notice from Mortgagee that such cost or expense was incurred to the date of payment to Mortgagee.  All such reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Mortgagee together with interest thereon calculated at the Default Rate shall be deemed to constitute a portion of the Debt and be secured by this Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents and shall be immediately due and payable upon demand by Mortgagee therefor.

Section 8.4            ACTIONS AND PROCEEDINGS.  Mortgagee has the right to appear in and defend any action or proceeding brought with respect to the Property if Mortgagee, in its discretion, determines that the outcome of any such action or proceeding would be reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect or if Mortgagee has provided written notice thereof to Borrower and Borrower fails to promptly defend any such action or proceeding to the reasonable satisfaction of Mortgagee.  Mortgagee has the right to bring any action or proceeding, in the name and on behalf of Borrower, which Mortgagee, in its discretion, determines should be brought in order to protect Mortgagee and Lenders interest in the Property if Mortgagee, in its discretion, determines that the failure to pursue such action or proceeding would be reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect or if Mortgagee has provided written notice thereof to Borrower and Borrower fails to promptly bring any such action or proceeding and prosecute the same to the reasonable satisfaction of Mortgagee.

Section 8.5            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 Borrower existing at the time such earlier action was commenced.

Section 8.6            OTHER RIGHTS, ETC.  (a)  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 Security Instrument.  Borrower shall not be relieved of Borrower’s obligations hereunder by reason of (i) the failure of Mortgagee to comply with any request of Borrower or any guarantor or indemnitor with respect to the Loan to take any action to foreclose this Security Instrument or otherwise enforce any of the provisions hereof or of the Note or the other Loan Documents, (ii) the release, regardless of consideration, of the whole or any part of the Property, or of any Person liable for the Debt or any portion thereof, or (iii) any agreement or stipulation by Mortgagee and/or Lenders extending the time of payment or otherwise modifying or supplementing the terms of the Note, this Security Instrument or the other Loan Documents.

(b)               It is agreed that the risk of loss or damage to the Property is on Borrower, and Mortgagee and Lenders shall have no liability whatsoever for decline in the value of the Property, for failure to maintain the insurance policies required to be maintained pursuant to the Loan Agreement, or for failure to determine whether insurance in force is adequate as to the amount of risks insured.  Possession by Mortgagee shall not be deemed an election of judicial relief if any such possession is requested or obtained with respect to any Property or collateral not in Mortgagee’s possession.

(c)                Mortgagee may resort for the payment of the Debt to any other security held by Mortgagee in such order and manner as set forth in Section 10.2 of the Loan Agreement or as otherwise determined by Lenders.  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 foreclose this Security Instrument.  The rights of Mortgagee under this Security Instrument 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.

 

12


 

 

 

Section 8.7            RIGHT TO RELEASE ANY PORTION OF THE PROPERTY.  Mortgagee may release any portion of the Property for such consideration as Mortgagee may require without, as to the remainder of the Property, in any way impairing or affecting the lien or priority of this Security Instrument, or improving the position of any subordinate lienholder with respect thereto, except to the extent that the obligations hereunder shall have been reduced by the actual monetary consideration, if any, received by Mortgagee for such release, and may accept by assignment, pledge or otherwise any other property in place thereof as Mortgagee may require without being accountable for so doing to any other lienholder.  This Security Instrument shall continue as a lien and security interest in the remaining portion of the Property.

Section 8.8            RIGHT OF ENTRY.  Mortgagee and Lenders shall have the right to enter and inspect the Property pursuant to Section 4.7 of the Loan Agreement.

Section 8.9            BANKRUPTCY.  (a)  Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Mortgagee shall have the right to proceed in its own name or in the name of Borrower in respect of any claim, suit, action or proceeding relating to the rejection of any Lease, including, without limitation, the right to file and prosecute, to the exclusion of Borrower, any proofs of claim, complaints, motions, applications, notices and other documents, in any case in respect of the lessee under such Lease under the Bankruptcy Code (defined below).

(b)               If there shall be filed by or against Borrower a petition under the Bankruptcy Code and Borrower, as lessor under any Lease, shall determine to reject such Lease pursuant to Section 365(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, then Borrower shall give Mortgagee not less than ten (10) days’ prior notice of the date on which Borrower shall apply to the bankruptcy court for authority to reject the Lease.  Mortgagee shall have the right, but not the obligation, to serve upon Borrower within such ten-day period a notice stating that (i) Mortgagee demands that Borrower assume and assign the Lease to Mortgagee pursuant to Section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code and (ii) Mortgagee covenants to cure or provide adequate assurance of future performance under the Lease.  If Mortgagee serves upon Borrower the notice described in the preceding sentence, Borrower shall not seek to reject the Lease and shall comply with the demand provided for in clause (i) of the preceding sentence within thirty (30) days after the notice shall have been given, subject to the performance by Mortgagee of the covenant provided for in clause (ii) of the preceding sentence.

Section 8.10        SUBROGATION.  If any or all of the proceeds of the Note have been used to extinguish, extend or renew any indebtedness heretofore existing against the Property, then, to the extent of the funds so used, Mortgagee shall be subrogated to all of the rights, claims, liens, titles, and interests existing against the Property heretofore held by, or in favor of, the holder of such indebtedness and such former rights, claims, liens, titles, and interests, if any, are not waived but rather are continued in full force and effect in favor of Mortgagee and are merged with the lien and security interest created herein as cumulative security for the repayment of the Debt, the performance and discharge of the Other Obligations.  Borrower and Mortgagee acknowledge that Mortgagee has taken an assignment of the Prior Mortgages.

Section 17.3        REJECTION OF THE GROUND LEASE

(a)                If the Ground Lease is terminated by Ground Lessor for any reason in the event of the rejection or disaffirmance of the Ground Lease by Ground Lessor pursuant to the Bankruptcy Code or any other Creditors Rights Law, (i) Borrower, immediately after obtaining notice thereof, shall give notice thereof to Mortgagee, (ii) Borrower, without the prior written consent of Mortgagee, shall not elect to treat the Ground Lease as terminated pursuant to Section 365(h) of the Bankruptcy Code or any comparable federal or state statute or law, and any election by Borrower made without such consent shall be void and (iii) this Security Instrument and all the liens, terms, covenants and conditions of this Security Instrument shall extend to and cover Borrower’s possessory rights under Section 365(h) of the Bankruptcy Code and to any claim for damages due to the rejection of the Ground Lease or other termination of the Ground Lease.  In addition, Borrower hereby assigns irrevocably to Mortgagee Borrower’s rights to treat the Ground Lease as terminated pursuant to Section 365(h) of the Bankruptcy Code and to offset rents under the Ground Lease in the event any case, proceeding or other action is commenced by or against Ground Lessor under the Bankruptcy Code or any comparable federal or state statute or law, provided that Mortgagee shall not exercise such rights and shall permit Borrower to exercise such rights with the prior written consent of Mortgagee, not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed, unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.

17


 

 

interest in the Ground Lease to Mortgagee in lieu of rejecting the Ground Lease as described above, upon receipt by Borrower of written notice from Mortgagee of such request together with Mortgagee’s agreement to cure any existing defaults of Borrower under the Ground Lease and to provide adequate assurance of future performance of Borrower’s obligations thereunder.

(c)                Borrower hereby assigns to Mortgagee Borrower’s right to seek an extension of the 60-day period within which Borrower must accept or reject the Ground Lease under Section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code or any comparable federal or state statute or law with respect to any case, proceeding or other action commenced by or against Borrower under the Bankruptcy Code or comparable federal or state statute or law, provided Mortgagee shall not exercise such right, and shall permit Borrower to exercise such right with the prior written consent of Mortgagee, not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed, unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.  Further, if Borrower shall desire to so reject the Ground Lease, at Mortgagee’s request, to the extent not prohibited by the terms of the Ground Lease and applicable law, Borrower shall assign its interest in the Ground Lease to Mortgagee in lieu of rejecting such Ground Lease as described above, upon receipt by Borrower of written notice from Mortgagee of such request together with Mortgagee’s agreement to cure any existing defaults of Borrower under the Ground Lease and to provide adequate assurance of future performance of the applicable Borrower’s obligations thereunder.

ARTICLE XVIII  –  STATE-SPECIFIC PROVISIONS

(c)        Trust Fund.  Pursuant to Section 13 of the Lien Law of New York, Mortgagor shall receive the advances secured hereby and shall hold the right to receive such advances as a trust fund to be applied first for the purpose of paying the cost of any improvement of the Property and shall apply such advances first to the payment of the cost of any such improvement of the Property before using any part of the total of the same for any other purpose.

(d)       Section 291-f Agreement.  This Mortgage is intended to be, and shall operate as, the agreement described in Section 291-f of the Real Property Law of the State of New York and shall be entitled to the benefits afforded thereby.  Mortgagor hereby covenants and agrees that Mortgagor shall not, without the consent of Mortgagee, (i) amend, modify or waive the provisions of any Lease or terminate, reduce rents under or shorten the term of any Lease, except pursuant to and in accordance with the provisions of the Note, the Loan Agreement, this Mortgage and the other Loan Documents, or (ii) collect any Rents (exclusive of security deposits, Impositions and other pass-throughs of Operating Expenses) more than thirty (30) days in advance of the time when the same shall become due.  Mortgagor shall (unless such notice is contained in the Lease) deliver notice of this Mortgage in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Mortgagee, to all present and future holders of any interest in any Lease, by assignment or otherwise, and shall take such other action as may now or hereafter be reasonably required to afford Mortgagee the full protections and benefits of such Section 291-f.
