named in such requisition which has not been released or will not be released
simultaneously with such payment;
(v) that such requisition contains no item representing payment on
account of any retained percentages of the cost of construction of the

purposes, all in accordance with the Acquisition Agreements.

such failure continues for ten (10) days thereafter; or
(b) The Lessee shall fail to observe and perform any other agreement, term or
condition contained in this Lease, and such failure or neglect either cannot be remedied or, if it
can be remedied, it continues unremedied for a period of thirty (30) days after notice thereof to

date specified therein, which date shall not be earlier than ten (10) days after such notice
is given, and, if all defaults have not then been cured, on the date so specified, Lessee's
rights to possession of the Supplemental Project shall cease and this Lease shall
thereupon be terminated, and Lessor may re-enter and take possession of the
Supplemental Project; and as an alternative remedy Lessor may at Lessor's election,
without terminating this Lease or the term thereof, re-enter the Supplemental Project and
take possession thereof, as agent for Lessee, and having elected to re-enter and take
possession of the Supplemental Project without terminating this Lease or the term
thereof, Lessor shall use reasonable diligence to relet the Supplemental Project, or parts
thereof for Lessee's account, for such term or terms and at such rental and upon such
other terms and conditions as Lessor may deem advisable, with the right to make
alterations and repairs to the Supplemental Project, and no such re-entry or taking of
possession of the Supplemental Project by Lessor shall be construed as an election on
Lessor's part to terminate this Lease, and no such re-entry or taking of possession by
Lessor shall relieve Lessee of its obligation to pay Base Rent or Additional Rent (at the
time or times provided herein), or of any of its other obligations under this Lease, all of
which shall survive such re-entry or taking of possession, and Lessee shall continue to
pay the Base Rent and Additional Rent provided for in this Lease until the end of the
term thereof and whether or not the Supplemental Project shall have been relet, less the
net proceeds, if any, of any reletting of the Supplemental Project after deducting all of

limitation all reasonable repossession costs, brokerage commissions, legal expenses,
expenses of employees, and reasonable costs and expenses of preparation for reletting
including the reasonable cost of any alterations that may be necessary in connection
therewith. Any such reletting may be effected by private negotiation and without public
advertisement. Having elected to re-enter or take possession of the Supplemental Project
without terminating the term of this Lease, Lessor may, by notice to Lessee given at any
time thereafter while Lessee is in default in the payment of Base Rent or Additional Rent
or in the performance of any other obligation under this Lease, elect to terminate this
Lease on a date to be specified in such notice, which date shall be not earlier than ten (10)
days after the giving of such notice, and if all defaults shall not have then been cured, on
the date so specified, this Lease shall thereupon be terminated. If in accordance with any
of the foregoing provisions of this Section 15, Lessor shall have the right to elect to
re-enter and take possession of the Supplemental Project, Lessor may enter and expel
Lessee and those claiming through or under Lessee and remove the property and effects
of both or either, subject, however, to the prior rights granted to the registered holders of
the Industrial Revenue Bonds under the First Mortgage and Revenue Bond Lease with
respect to the Supplemental Improvements.
(iii) Subject, to the prior rights granted to the registered holders of the
Industrial Revenue Bonds under the First Mortgage and Revenue Bond Lease with
respect to the Supplemental Improvements, Lessor may at Lessor's election appoint a
receiver or receivers of the Supplemental Project and of all rents, revenues, issues,
earnings, income, products and proceeds thereof, with such powers as the court making
such appointment shall confer. At the request of Lessor, Lessee shall consent to the
appointment of any such receiver.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if, by reason of Force Majeure, the Lessee is unable to
perform or observe any agreement, term or condition hereof which would give rise to an Event
of Default under this Section 15, the Lessee shall not be deemed in default during the
continuance of such inability. However, the Lessee shall promptly give notice to the Lessor of
the existence of an event of Force Majeure and shall use its best efforts to remove the effects
thereof; provided that the settlement of strikes or other industrial disturbances involving
employees of the Lessee shall be entirely within its discretion.

(i) acts of God; strikes, lockouts or other industrial disturbances of non

transmission pipes or canals; partial or entire failure of utilities; shortages of labor,
materials, supplies or transportation; or
(ii) any cause, circumstance or event not reasonably within the control of the
Lessee.
The declaration of an Event of Default and the exercise of remedies upon any such
declaration, shall be subject to any applicable limitations of Federal bankruptcy law affecting or
precluding that declaration or exercise during the pendency of or immediately following any
bankruptcy, liquidation or reorganization proceedings.
The provisions of this Section 15 are subject to the further limitation that declaration of
an Event of Default under this Section 15 by the Lessor may be waived or rescinded in writing
by the Lessor, provided that no such waiver or rescission shall extend to or affect any subsequent
or other default or impair any right consequent thereon.

keep or perform any of its obligations as provided in this Lease in respect of (a) maintenance of
insurance, (b) repairs and maintenance of the Supplemental Project, (c) compliance with legal or
insurance requirements hereunder, (d) keeping the Parking Site free of any lien and the
Supplemental Project free of any lien except those created under the Revenue Bond Lease, First
Mortgage and Subordinated Mortgage, or (e) the making of any other payment or performance of
any other obligation, then Lessor may (but shall not be obligated so to do) upon the continuance
of such failure on Lessee's part for thirty (30) days after written notice of such failure is given
Lessee by Lessor and without waiving or releasing Lessee from any obligation hereunder, as an
additional but not exclusive remedy, make any such payment or perform any such obligation,
and all sums so paid by Lessor and all necessary incidental costs and expenses incurred by
Lessor in performing such obligation shall be deemed Additional Rent and shall be paid to
Lessor on demand with interest thereon from the date of such payment at the Interest Rate for
Advances, and if not so paid by Lessee, Lessor shall have the same rights and remedies as
provided for in Section 15 in the case of default by Lessee in the payment of Base Rent.

Lease or Lessee shall on demand pay to the Lessor the reasonable fees of such attorneys and
such other reasonable expenses so incurred; provided that such attorney's fees shall be allowed
only to the extent actually paid and shall not be allowed to a salaried employee of the Lessor. If
any such expenses are not so reimbursed, the amount thereof, together with interest thereon from
the date of demand for payment at the Interest Rate for Advances, to the extent permitted by law,
shall constitute Additional Rent, and in any action brought to collect Lease Payments, the Lessor
shall be entitled to seek the recovery of those expenses in such action except as limited by law or
by judicial order or decision entered in such proceedings.
SECTION 18. Conveyance of Supplemental Improvements to Lessee When City Bonds

agrees to indemnify and save the Lessor (an "Indemnitee") harmless against and from any or all

Indemnitee harmless from any such Indemnified Claim, or in connection with any action or
proceeding brought thereon and, upon notice from such Indemnitee, will defend or pay the cost
of defending such Indemnitee, in any such action or proceeding.

under the Lease Agreement, and shall perform and comply with all covenants, agreements,
conditions, provisions, stipulations and obligations set forth therein on its part to be performed,
at the times and in the manner required thereby.
SECTION 2.2. Taxes and Other Charges. Grantor shall pay or cause to be paid
when due and payable and before interest or penalties are due thereon, without any deduction,
defalcation or abatement, all taxes, assessments, water and sewer rents, charges and claims
which may be assessed, levied, or filed at any time against Grantor, the Mortgaged Property or
any part thereof (including without limitation any taxes levied upon or with respect to the
revenues, income or profit of Grantor from the Mortgaged Property) or against the interest of
Grantee therein, or which by any present or future law may become or be made a lien on the
Mortgaged Property, or any part thereof, or a charge on such revenues, income or profits; and
Grantor shall produce to Grantee, upon request, receipts for the payment thereof; provided,
however, that if, pursuant to this Subordinated Mortgage or otherwise, Grantor shall have

assessments, water and sewer rents, charges and claims, and Grantor is not otherwise in default,
they shall be paid by the Grantee; and provided further, that if Grantor in good faith and by
appropriate legal action shall contest the validity of any such item, or the amount thereof, and

required to pay the item or to produce the required receipts while the amount is maintained and
so long as the contest operates to prevent collection, is maintained and prosecuted with diligence,
and shall not have been terminated or discontinued adversely to Grantor. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, if Grantee notifies Grantor that, in the opinion of counsel selected by Grantee, by
nonpayment of any such item the lien of this Subordinated Mortgage as to any part of the
Mortgaged Property will be materially affected or the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof
will be subject to imminent loss or forfeiture, Grantor shall promptly pay such item. It is
expressly agreed that no credit shall be claimed or allowed on the interest payable on the
amounts payable under the Lease Agreement as "Base Rent" because of any taxes or other
charges paid.
SECTION 2.3. Insurance. Grantor shall keep the Project insured for the benefit of
the Grantor, Grantee and Priority Mortgagee (with Grantee and Priority Mortgagee named as
mortgagee) by (i) an "all risk" property insurance policy with an agreed amount endorsement for

including all rents plus all other pro forma annual income such as percentage rent and tenant
reimbursements of fixed and operating expenses, which business interruption insurance shall also
provide coverage as aforesaid for any additional hazards as may be required pursuant to the
terms of the First Mortgage; (v) a policy or endorsement insuring against damage by flood if the
Project is located in a Special Flood Hazard Area identified by the Federal Emergency
Management Agency or any successor or related government agency as a 100 year flood plain

policy with extended coverage in an amount at least equal to the full replacement cost of such

covering against damage or loss by earthquake and other natural phenomenon in the amounts
reasonably required by the Grantee and Priority Mortgagee, as mortgagee under the First
Mortgage. "Full replacement cost" shall mean the one hundred percent (100%) replacement cost
of the Project, without allowance for depreciation and exclusive of the cost of excavations,
foundations, footings, and value of land, and shall be subject to verification by the Grantee. Full
replacement cost will be determined, at the Grantor's expense, periodically upon policy
expiration or renewal by the insurance company or an appraiser, engineer, architect, or contractor
approved by said company, the Grantee and Priority Mortgagee, as mortgagee under the First
Mortgage.
The Grantor shall also maintain commercial general liability insurance with per
occurrence limits of $1,000,000, a products/completed operations limit of $2,000,000, and a
general aggregate limit of $2,000,000, with an excess/umbrella liability policy of not less than
$10,000,000 per occurrence and annual aggregate covering the Grantor, with the Grantee and
Priority Mortgagee, as mortgagee under the First Mortgage, named as additional insureds,
against claims for bodily injury or death or property damage occurring in, upon, or about the
Project or any street, drive, sidewalk, curb, or passageway adjacent thereto. In addition to any
other requirements, such commercial general liability and excess/umbrella liability insurance
shall provide insurance against acts of terrorism and against claims applicable to the presence of
Microbial Matter, or such coverages shall be provided by separate policies or endorsements. The
insurance policies shall also include operations and blanket contractual liability coverage which
insures contractual liability under the indemnifications set forth in Section 2.10 hereof (but such
coverage or the amount thereof shall in no way limit such indemnificationg). Upon request of
the Grantee, the Grantor shall also carry additional insurance or additional amounts of insurance
covering the Grantor or the Supplemental Improvements as the Grantee shall reasonably require.
All insurance required under this Section shall be fully paid for, non -assessable, and the
policies shall contain such provisions, endorsements, and expiration dates as the Grantee shall
reasonably require. The policies shall be issued by insurance companies authorized to do
business in the Project Site, approved by the Grantee and Priority Mortgagee, as mortgagee
under the First Mortgage, and must have and maintain a current financial strength rating of "A-,
V (or higher) from A.M. Best or equivalent (or if a rating by A.M. Best is no longer available, a
similar rating from a similar or successor service). In addition, all policies shall (i) include a
standard mortgagee clause, without contribution, in the name of the Grantee and Priority
Mortgagee, as mortgagee under the First Mortgage, (ii) provide that they shall not be canceled,
amended, or materially altered (including reduction in the scope or limits of coverage) without at
least thirty (30) days' prior written notice to the Grantee except in the event of cancellation for
non-payment of premium, in which case only ten (10) days' prior written notice will be given to
the Grantee, and (iii) include a waiver of subrogation clause substantially equivalent to the
following: "The Company may require from the Insured an assignment of all rights of recovery
against any party for loss to the extent that payment therefor is made by the Company, but the
Company shall not acquire any rights of recovery which the Insured has expressly waived prior
to loss, nor shall such waiver affect the Insured's rights under this policy."
Subject to the provisions of Section 2.8 hereof, each insurer is hereby authorized and
directed to make payment of any amount under the insurance described in this Section (except
liability insurance), including return of unearned premiums, directly to the Grantee instead of to
the Grantor and the Grantee jointly, and the Grantor hereby appoints the Grantee, irrevocably, as
Grantor's attorney-in-fact to endorse any draft therefor for application as herein provided;
provided that the foregoing provisions of this paragraph shall not limit Grantor's right to
negotiate or agree to settlement of any claim under the insurance described in this Section, and
provided further that the foregoing provisions are subject to the priority provisions set forth with
respect thereto in the first Mortgage, so long as any Industrial revenue Bonds remaining
outstanding and unpaid.
Grantor shall comply with all applicable workers' compensation laws.
SECTION 2.4. Tax and Insurance Deposits. Without limiting the effect of
Sections 2.2 and 2.3 hereof, Grantor shall pay to the Trustee monthly on or before the first day of
each month, commencing with the month following the recording of this Subordinated
Mortgage, an amount equal to one -twelfth (1/12) of the annual premiums for the insurance
policies referred to hereinabove and the annual real estate taxes, water and sewer rents, rates and
charges, any special assessments, charges or claims and any other items which at any time may
be or become a lien upon the Mortgaged Property prior to the lien of this Subordinated
Mortgage; and on demand from time to time Grantor shall pay to the Grantee any additional
sums necessary to pay, at least thirty (30) days prior to the due date thereof, the premiums and
other items, all as estimated by the Trustee. The amounts so paid shall be security for the
premiums and other items and shall be used in payment thereof if Grantor is not otherwise in
default hereunder. If, pursuant to any provision of this Subordinated Mortgage, the whole
amount of the unpaid principal debt becomes due and payable, Grantee shall have the right, at its
election, to apply any amount so held against the entire indebtedness secured hereby. So long as
Grantor is not in default under Sections 2.2 or 2.3 hereof and has provided to Grantee evidence
of timely payment of its obligations thereunder, the provisions of this Section 2.4 shall be waived
by Grantee.
SECTION 2.5. Maintenance and Modification of Mortgaged Property. Grantor
shall keep and maintain or cause to be kept and maintained the Mortgaged Property and the
sidewalks and curbs abutting same, in good order and condition (including operating condition)
and in rentable and tenantable state of repair, and will make or cause to be made, as and when
necessary, all repairs, renewals and replacements, structural and nonstructural, exterior and
interior, ordinary and extraordinary, foreseen and unforeseen. Grantor shall abstain from and
shall not permit the commission of waste in, of or about the Mortgaged Property; shall not
remove or demolish any building erected at any time on the Project Site without the prior written
consent of Grantee; and shall not permit the Mortgaged Property to become vacant, deserted or
unguarded.
The Grantee shall have the right to enter upon the Mortgaged Property at any reasonable
business hour for the purpose of inspecting the order, condition and repair of the Mortgaged
Property.
So long as there is continued compliance with applicable laws and regulations of
governmental jurisdictions and the requirements of insurance underwriters providing insurance
pursuant to Section 2.3 hereof, Grantor shall have the right to remodel the Mortgaged Property or
make additions, modifications and improvements thereto, from time to time as it, in its
discretion, may deem to be desirable for its uses and purposes, the cost of which remodeling,
additions, modifications and improvements shall be paid by Grantor, and the same shall, when
made, become a part of the Mortgaged Property. No such remodeling, addition, modification or
improvement of the Mortgaged Property shall adversely affect the value of the Mortgaged
Property and Grantor shall comply promptly and conform to all requirements of insurance
underwriters providing coverage for the Mortgaged Property regarding use, occupancy,
operation, maintenance, alteration or repair of any of the Mortgaged Property.
SECTION 2.6. Substitutions for Portions of the Mortgaged Property. Grantor
shall have the right from time to time to substitute personal property or fixtures for any portions
of the Mortgaged Property, provided that the personal property or fixtures so substituted shall not
impair the value of the Mortgaged Property. Any such substituted property or fixtures shall
become part of the Mortgaged Property.
Grantor shall also have the right to remove any personal property portions of the
Mortgaged Property, without substitution therefor, from the Mortgaged Property and from
service in Grantor's business, in any instance where Grantor determines, in its reasonable
discretion, that such property has become inadequate, obsolete, worn-out, unsuitable, undesirable
or unnecessary, whereupon, subject to the provisions hereinafter set forth, such removed
property shall no longer be subject to this Subordinated Mortgage. Prior to any removal Grantor
shall deliver to Grantee certificates executed by Grantor so certifying and particularly describing
the property to be removed. Grantor shall promptly pay to the Grantee, (a) if the removed
property is comprised of Supplemental Improvements and is sold or scrapped, an amount equal
to the proceeds of such sale or the scrap value thereof, (b) if the removed property is comprised
of Supplemental Improvements and is used as a trade-in for property not to become part of the
Mortgaged Property, an amount equal to the trade-in credit received by Grantor, or (c) if the
removed property is comprised of Supplemental Improvements and is retained by Grantor, an
amount equal to the fair market value of such property, as determined by Grantor with the
consent of the Grantee; provided, however, that with respect to each calendar year of Grantor, no
such deposits need be made except to the extent that the aggregate of the amounts determined
pursuant to clauses (a), (b) and (c) of this sentence exceed $50,000 in such calendar year. Within
30 days after the end of each calendar year of Grantor, Grantor shall deliver to Grantee
certificates signed by a duly authorized representative of the Grantor particularly describing
property removed by Grantor during such calendar year pursuant to this paragraph, stating the
respective sale or scrap values thereof, trade-in credits received therefor, and the fair market
values thereof, and certifying that such removals have been made in accordance with the
provisions of this paragraph.
SECTION 2.7. Mechanics' and Other Liens. Grantor shall not suffer or permit any
mechanics' liens to be filed or exist against the Mortgaged Property, or against any payment to be
made under the Lease Agreement, by reason of work, labor, services or materials supplied or
claimed to have been supplied to Grantor or anyone holding the Mortgaged Property or the
Project Site or any part thereof through or under Grantor. If any such mechanics' liens shall at
any time be filed, Grantor shall, within thirty days after notice of the filing thereof, cause the
same to be discharged of record by payment, deposit, bond, order of a court of competent
jurisdiction or otherwise; provided that if Grantor in good faith and by appropriate legal action
shall contest the validity of any such mechanic's lien, or the amount thereof, then Grantor shall
not be required to discharge such mechanic's lien so long as the contest is maintained and
prosecuted with diligence, and shall not have been terminated or discontinued adversely to
Grantor. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Grantee notifies Grantor that, in the opinion of
counsel selected by Grantee, by nonpayment of any such mechanic's lien the lien of this
Subordinated Mortgage as to any part of the Mortgaged Property will be materially affected or
the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof will be subject to imminent loss or forfeiture, Grantor
shall promptly discharge such mechanic's lien.
SECTION 2.8. Damage and Destruction. Unless Grantor shall have elected to
exercise its option to purchase the Supplemental Improvements under the provisions of the Lease
Agreement, if the Project is damaged by fire or other casualty and Grantor has not been declared
in default of the Lease Agreement, unless Grantor elects within 90 days to prepay the Series
2014D Bonds in full in accordance with the provisions of the Lease Agreement, (i) Grantor will
promptly repair, replace, rebuild or restore the property damaged or destroyed to substantially
the same condition as existed prior to the event causing such damage or destruction, with such
changes or alterations (including substitution and addition of other property), as Grantor may
deem necessary for proper operation of the Mortgaged Property, and (ii) Grantor and Grantee
will apply for such purpose so much as may be necessary of any Net Proceeds of insurance
resulting from claims for losses, under the insurance policies required to be carried herein,
resulting from such damage. In the event that Grantor is in default of the Lease Agreement, all
proceeds of insurance shall, at the election of the Grantee, be applied to prepay Base Rent, as
defined in the Lease Agreement, as the Grantee, in its sole discretion, and in accordance with the
related documents, may determine, subject, however, to the priority of such payments in favor of
Priority Mortgagee under the provisions of the First Mortgage.
Subject to the provisions of the First Mortgage, all Net Proceeds of insurance resulting
from claims for losses not in excess of $5,000 shall be paid to Grantor by Grantee, assuming
Grantor acts to promptly repair, replace, rebuild or restore the damaged property. All Net
Proceeds of insurance resulting from claims for losses in excess of $5,000 shall be paid to and
held by the Grantee in a separate disbursement account, and the Grantee will apply so much as
may be necessary of the Net Proceeds of such insurance to payment of the costs incurred by
Grantor for the repair, replacement, rebuilding or restoration of the Project, either on completion
thereof or as the work progresses as directed by Grantor. In the event any Net Proceeds of
insurance will be insufficient to pay in full the costs of repair, replacement, rebuilding or
restoration under this Section, as determined by an independent architect or engineer, then
Grantor, prior to commencing such repair, replacement, rebuilding or restoration, shall pay to the
Grantee for deposit in the separate disbursement account an amount equal to the deficiency,
which deposit shall first be exhausted before any disbursement of Net Proceeds of insurance.
Grantor shall not, by reason of the payment of any such deficiency be entitled to any
reimbursement from Grantee or the Issuer or any abatement or diminution of payments under the
Lease Agreement.
Any balance of such Net Proceeds remaining after payment of all the costs of repair,
replacement, rebuilding or restoration under this Section shall be paid to the Grantor, provided
no default has been declared under the Lease Agreement.
If upon any damage to or destruction of the Project Grantor elects to prepay the Base
Rent in full pursuant to the provisions of the Lease Agreement rather than repair, replace, rebuild
or restore the property damaged or destroyed, all Net Proceeds of insurance shall be applied to
such prepayment of Base Rent, and any balance remaining after such prepayment shall be paid to
Grantor.
SECTION 2.9. Condemnation. If title to, or the temporary use of, the Project or
the Project Site or any part thereof shall be taken under the exercise of the power of eminent
domain by any governmental body or by any person, firm or corporation acting under
governmental authority, Grantor shall be obligated to continue to make the payments required by
the Lease Agreement. Subject to the provisions of the First Mortgage, Grantor and Grantee will
cause the Net Proceeds received by them or either of them from any award made in such eminent
domain proceedings, to be paid to and held by the Grantee in a separate disbursement account, to
be applied in one or more of the following ways as shall be directed in writing by Grantor:
(a) The modification or restoration of the improvements located on the Project
Site, or the acquisition, construction, installation or otherwise, by Grantor of buildings,
machinery, equipment, fixtures or other improvements on the Project Site, all to the
extent deemed appropriate by Grantor for its uses and purposes; provided that, at a
minimum, the Project as so modified, restored or acquired shall have a value, as
reasonably determined by the Grantor, sufficient to fully secure the then outstanding
principal amount of the Series 2014D Bonds; and provided further that the Project as so
modified, .restored or acquired shall be subject to no liens or encumbrances except
Permitted Encumbrances.
(b) Redemption of the Series 2014D Bonds, together with accrued interest
thereon, to the date of redemption; provided, that no part of any such condemnation
award may be applied for such redemption unless (i) all of the Series 2014D Bonds are to
be redeemed in accordance with the Bond Purchase Agreement upon exercise of the
option to purchase the Project pursuant to the provisions of the Lease Agreement, or (ii)
if less than all of the Series 2014D Bonds are to be redeemed, Grantor shall fixrnish to
Grantee a certificate of a duly authorized representative of the Grantor stating (1) that the
property forming a part of the Mortgaged Property that was taken in such eminent
domain proceeding is not essential to Grantor's use or occupancy of the Mortgaged
Property, (2) that the Project has been restored to a condition substantially equivalent to
its condition prior to the taking in such eminent domain proceeding, or (3) that
improvements have been acquired which are suitable for Grantor's operations at the
Project as contemplated by the foregoing subsection (a) of this Section.
(c) Payment into the Bond Fund of an amount sufficient to permit payment in
full of the Series 2014D Bonds.
If Grantor elects to apply any Net Proceeds of any such award in the manner set forth in
paragraph (a) above, and the amount of such Net Proceeds will be insufficient to pay in full the
costs of such modification, restoration or acquisition, as determined by an independent architect
or engineer, then Grantor, prior to commencing such modification, restoration or acquisition,
shall pay to the Grantee for deposit in the separate disbursement account provided for in the
Revenue Bond Lease an amount equal to the deficiency. Such deposit shall first be applied to
the costs of such modification, restoration or acquisition before any Net Proceeds of any such
award are so applied. Grantor will not, by reason of the payment of any excess costs of
modification, restoration or acquisition, be entitled to any reimbursement by the Grantee or any
abatement or diminution of payments under the Lease Agreement.
Within 30 days from the date of entry of a final order in any eminent domain proceedings
granting condemnation, Grantor shall direct Grantee in writing as to which of the ways specified
in this Section Grantor elects to have the condemnation award applied. Any balance of the Net
Proceeds of the award in such eminent domain proceedings shall be paid and applied in the same
manner as specified in Section 2.8 hereof for excess Net Proceeds of insurance.
Any moneys held by the Grantee under the provisions of the preceding paragraph shall be
invested or reinvested by the Grantee in the manner provided for investment of funds under the
Lease Agreement and the Revenue Bond Lease.
SECTION 2.10. Protection of Grantee. Grantor will protect, defend, indemnify and
hold harmless Grantee from and against all liabilities, obligations, claims, damages, penalties,
causes of action, cost and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and
expenses) imposed upon or incurred by or asserted against the Grantee by reason of (a)
ownership of any interest in the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof, (b) any accident, injury
to or death of any person or persons, or loss of or damage to property, occurring on or about the
Mortgaged Property or any part thereof or any adjoining sidewalks, curbs, vaults and vault
spaces, streets or highways, (c) any use, nonuse or condition of the Mortgaged Property or any
part thereof, or any adjoining sidewalks, curbs, vaults and vault spaces, street or highways, (d)
any failure on the part of Grantor to perform or comply with any of the terms, covenants or
conditions of this Mortgage, (e) any necessity to defend any of the rights, title or interest
conveyed by this Mortgage, or (f) the 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.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Grantor shall have no obligation to protect, defend, indemnify or
hold Grantee harmless with respect to any liability, obligation, claim, damage, penalty, cause of
action, cost or expenses arising from or due to the negligent or willful misconduct of Grantee. In
the event that any action, suit or proceeding is brought against Grantee by reason of any of the
matters described in the immediately preceding sentence, Grantor, upon the request of Grantee,
will, at Grantor's expense, cause such action, suit or proceeding to be resisted and defended by
counsel designated by Grantor and approved by Grantee. Any amounts payable to Grantee
pursuant to the provisions of this paragraph shall be secured by this Mortgage. The obligations
of Grantor under this paragraph shall survive any defeasance of this Mortgage.
For purposes of clause (d) in the first sentence of the preceding paragraph (and without
limiting the generality thereof), it is expressly understood and agreed that Grantee shall have no
duty to examine or make any investigation with respect to any work done, action taken or
payment made by Grantor under Sections 2.5, 2.6, 2.8 or 2.9 of this Mortgage, and any
determination of value under any such Section (except as therein provided) shall be the sole
responsibility of Grantor.
Nothing contained in this Section, however, shall require the Grantor to indemnify the
Grantee or any of its officials, officers, employees or agents from any cost, liability, expense,
loss or claim arising out of or resulting from the willful misconduct or negligence of the Grantee
or any of its officials, officers, employees, or agents. The indemnification provided by this
Section to the Grantee shall include its officials, officers, employees and agents.

under this Subordinated Mortgage:
(a) The occurrence of an Event of Default as defined in the Lease Agreement.
(b) Failure by Grantor to pay to Grantee any advances made pursuant to Section 3.11
hereof within 10 days after written notice to Grantor from Grantee.
(c) Failure by Grantor to observe and perform any other covenant, warranty,
condition or agreement on its part to be observed or performed hereunder, for a
period of 30 days (unless the Grantee shall agree in writing to an extension of

failure to be remedied, given to Grantor by Grantee.
The provisions of paragraph (c) of this Section are subject to the following limitations: If by

governmental authority; insurrection; military action; war, whether or not declared; sabotage;
riots; civil disturbances; explosions; breakage or accident to transmission pipes or canals; partial

Grantor is unable in whole or in part to carry out the agreements on its part herein contained,
other than obligations on the part of Grantor to make the payments required under the Lease
Agreement, to carry insurance, to pay any ad valorem property taxes, and to make other
payments or deposits pursuant to the terms hereof, Grantor shall not be deemed in default during
the continuance of such inability. Grantor shall, however, use its best efforts to remedy with all
reasonable dispatch the cause or causes preventing Grantor from carrying out its agreements;
provided, that Grantor shall not in any event be required to settle strikes, lockouts or other
industrial disturbances by acceding to the demands of the opposing party or parties when such
course is, in the judgment of Grantor, not in the interest of Grantor.
SECTION 3.2. Other Remedies. In addition to any other remedy available to
Grantee, as provided herein or otherwise, Grantee may exercise any remedy available to it under
the Lease Agreement, Indenture or any applicable law, including the rights and remedies of a
secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code as adopted in the Commonwealth of
Kentucky.
SECTION 3.3. Acceleration. Subject to the provisions of Section 3.12 hereof,
upon the occurrence of an event of default, the Grantee may declare the principal, interest and all
other sums secured by this Subordinated Mortgage to be due and payable immediately and, upon
said declaration, such principal, interest and other sums shall become and be immediately due
and payable.
SECTION 3.4. Surrender of Possession; Rights and Duties of Grantee in
Possession. Upon the occurrence of an event of default, and subject to the provisions of Section
3.12 hereof, Grantor, upon demand of Grantee, shall forthwith, to the extent possible, assemble
the Mortgaged Property and proceeds and make them available to the Grantee at the Project Site
or some other place to be designated by the Grantee which is convenient to all parties, and
Grantor shall forthwith surrender the possession of, and it shall be lawful for the Grantee to take
possession of, all or any part of the Mortgaged Property together with the books, papers and
accounts of Grantor pertaining thereto, and to hold, operate and manage the same, and from time
to time to make all needful repairs, replacements and improvements; and Grantee may lease or
license the use of the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof in the name and for the account of
Grantor and collect, receive and sequester the rents, license fees, revenues and other income,
charges and moneys therefrom, and out of the same and any moneys received from any receiver
of any part thereof, after deducting all proper costs and expenses of so taking, holding and
managing the same, including reasonable compensation to Grantee, its respective agents and
counsel, pay and/or set up proper reserves for the payment of any or all of the following in such
order and amounts as Grantee, in Grantee's sole discretion, may elect: the payment of any sums
due under any prior or subordinate lien, taxes, water and sewer rents, charges and claims,
insurance premiums and all other carrying charges, costs of maintenance, repair, replacement or
restoration of the Mortgaged Property, and on account and in reduction of the principal or
interest, or both, on the indebtedness hereby secured. For the aforesaid purpose, Grantor hereby
assigns to Grantee all rentals and license fees due and to become due under any leases or rights
or licenses to use and occupation of all or any part of the Mortgaged Property now or hereafter
created, as well as all rights and remedies provided in such leases, rights or licenses. In the event
that all events of default have been made good and Grantee shall have surrendered possession to
Grantor, the right of entry provided in this Section shall again exist upon any subsequent event of
default.
SECTION 3.5. Actions to Recover Amounts Due. Subject to the provisions of
Section 3.12 hereof, Grantee shall have the right, from time to time, to bring an appropriate
action to recover any sums required to be paid by Grantor under the terms of this Subordinated
Mortgage or the Lease Agreement as they become due, without regard to whether or not the
principal indebtedness or any other sums secured by the Lease Agreement or this Subordinated
Mortgage shall be due, and without prejudice to the right of Grantee thereafter to institute
foreclosure or otherwise dispose of the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof, or any other
action, for any default by Grantor existing at the time the earlier action was commenced.
SECTION 3.6. Foreclosure. Subject to the provisions of Section 3.12 hereof,
upon the occurrence of an event of default, the lien on the Mortgaged Property created and
vested by this Subordinated Mortgage may be foreclosed and the Grantee may sell or otherwise
dispose of the Mortgaged Property in the manner provided by law, and Grantee, if the highest
bidder, may become the purchaser of the Mortgaged Property at any such sale. Grantee will give
Grantor reasonable notice of the time and place of any public sale thereof.
SECTION 3.7. Appointment of Receiver. Subject to the provisions of Section
3.12 hereof, Upon the occurrence of an event of default, and upon the filing of a suit or other
commencement of judicial proceedings to enforce the rights of Grantee under this Subordinated
Mortgage, Grantee shall be entitled, as a matter of right, to the appointment of a receiver or
receivers of the Mortgaged Property and all receipts therefrom, pending such proceedings, with
such power as the court making such appointment shall confer; provided, however, that each
Grantee may, with or without action under this Section, pursue any available remedy to enforce
the payment of principal and interest and premium, if any, or to remedy any event of default.
SECTION 3.8. Application of Moneys. All moneys received by either Grantee or
a receiver pursuant to any right given or action taken under the provisions of this Article shall,
after the payment of the costs, expenses, liabilities and advances incurred by such Grantee or
receiver, together with interest thereon at the Default Rate, be applied in the manner provided in
Section 3.4 hereof if such moneys are received other than as a result of foreclosure or any other
disposition of the Mortgaged Property, and if received as a result of foreclosure or any other
disposition of the Mortgaged Property shall be applied first to the payment of the costs,
expenses, liabilities and advances incurred by Grantee or receiver, together with interest thereon
at the Default Rate, and then on account and in reduction of the principal, premium (if any) and
interest on the indebtedness hereby secured.
SECTION 3.9. Rights and Remedies Cumulative; No Waiver or Release of
Obligation. The rights and remedies of Grantee as provided in this Subordinated Mortgage or
the Lease Agreement, and in the warranties contained herein and therein shall be cumulative and
concurrent, may be pursued separately, successively or together against Grantor or against the
Mortgaged Property, or any combination thereof, at the sole discretion of Grantee, and may be
exercised as often as occasion therefor shall arise. The failure to exercise any such right or
remedy shall in no event be construed as a waiver or release thereof.
Any failure by Grantee to insist upon strict performance by Grantor of any of the terms
and provisions of this Subordinated Mortgage or the Lease Agreement shall not be deemed to be
a waiver of any of the terms or provisions thereof, and Grantee shall have the right thereafter to
insist upon strict performance by Grantor of any and all of them.
No delay or omission to exercise any right or power accruing upon any failure or event of
default shall impair any right or power or shall be construed to be a waiver of any such failure or
event of default or acquiescence therein; and every such right and power may be exercised from
time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient.
No waiver of any failure or event of default hereunder by Grantee shall extend to or shall
affect any subsequent failure or event of default or shall impair any rights or remedies
consequent thereon.
Neither Grantor nor any other person now or hereafter obligated for payment of all or any
part of the sums now or hereafter secured by this Subordinated Mortgage shall be relieved of
such obligation by reason of the failure of Grantee to comply with any request of Grantor or of
any other person so obligated to take action to foreclose on this Subordinated Mortgage or
otherwise enforce any provisions of this Subordinated Mortgage or the Lease Agreement, or by
reason of the release, regardless of consideration, of all or any part of the security held for the
indebtedness secured by this Subordinated Mortgage, or by reason of any agreement or
stipulation between any subsequent owner of the Mortgaged Property and Grantee extending the
time of payment or modifying the terms of the Subordinated Mortgage, without first having
obtained the consent of Grantor or such other person; and in the latter event Grantor and all such
other persons shall continue to be liable to make payments according to the terms of any such
extension or modification agreement, unless expressly released and discharged in writing by
Grantee.
The Grantee may release, regardless of consideration, any part of the security held for the
indebtedness secured by this Subordinated Mortgage without, as to the remainder of the security,
in any way impairing or affecting the lien of this Subordinated Mortgage or its priority over any
subordinate lien.
SECTION 3.10. Termination of Proceedings. If Grantee shall have proceeded to
enforce any right under this Subordinated Mortgage by the appointment of a receiver, by entry or
otherwise, and such proceeding shall have been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or
shall have been determined adversely, then and in every such case Grantor and Grantee shall be
restored to their former positions and rights hereunder, respectively, and all rights, remedies and
powers of Grantee shall continue unimpaired as before.
SECTION 3.11. Right to Remedy Default. In the event that Grantor should fail to
carry the insurance required herein or pursuant hereto, or to pay or cause to be paid real estate or
other taxes, assessments, water and sewer rents, charges and claims (unless and only for so long
as, in strict compliance with the provisions of Section 2.2 hereof, Grantor is contesting the
validity of any such item or the amount thereof), corporate taxes, sums due under any prior lien
or approved prior lien, or insurance premiums, or fail to make necessary repairs or replacements,
or permit waste, or fail to cure any default under any prior lien or approved prior lien, or fail to
comply with any other obligation on the part of Grantor contained herein or in the Lease
Agreement, Grantee, at its election and without notice to Grantor, shall have the right to make
any payment or expenditure and to take any action which Grantor should have made or taken, or
which Grantee deems advisable to protect the security of this Subordinated Mortgage or the
Mortgaged Property, without prejudice to any of Grantee's rights or remedies available hereunder
or otherwise, at law or in equity. All such sums, as well as costs, advanced by Grantee or due
Grantee pursuant to this Subordinated Mortgage, the Lease Agreement, or the Indenture shall be
due immediately from Grantor to Grantee and, together with interest thereon at the Default Rate,
shall be secured hereby.
SECTION 3.12. Subordination of Grantee's Rights to Rights of Priority Mortgagee.
So long as any sum shall remain outstanding under the Revenue Bond Lease and related
Industrial Revenue Bonds:
(a) Grantee shall give the Priority Mortgagee a copy of each notice of default given to
Grantor with respect to the Lease Agreement and this Subordinated Mortgage at the same time
that Grantee gives such notice to Grantor.
(b) If (i) the Revenue Bond Lease and related Industrial Revenue Bonds becomes due
or is declared due and payable prior to its stated maturity, (ii) Grantor is in default under the
Revenue Bond Lease or First Mortgage, or (iii) any distribution, division or application, partial
or complete, voluntary or involuntary, by operation of law or otherwise, of all or any part of the
property, assets or business of Grantor or the proceeds thereof, in whatever form, to any creditor
or creditors of Grantor or to any holder of indebtedness of Grantor by reason of any liquidation,
dissolution or other winding up of Grantor or its business, or of any receivership or custodianship
for Grantor of all or substantially all of its property, or of any insolvency or bankruptcy
proceedings or assignment for the benefit of creditors or any proceeding by or against Grantor
for any relief under any bankruptcy, reorganization or insolvency law or laws, federal or state, or
any law, federal or state, relating to the relief of debtors, readjustment of indebtedness,
reorganization, composition or extension, then, and in any such event, any payment or
distribution of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities which shall be
payable or deliverable (excluding however payments under the Sales Tax Refund Pledge and
Security Agreement (as defined in the Lease Agreement) or Pilot Payments (as defined in the
Revenue Bond Lease)) with respect to the Lease Agreement from and after the occurrence of any
of the events set forth in this Section 3.12(C)(i), (ii) or (iii) shall be held in trust by Grantee for
the benefit of Priority Mortgagee and shall forthwith be paid or delivered directly to Priority
Mortgagee for application to the payment of the Revenue Bond Lease and related Industrial
Revenue Bonds to the extent necessary to make payment in full of all sums due under the
Revenue Bond Lease and related Industrial Revenue Bonds after giving effect to any concurrent
payment or distribution to Priority Mortgagee. In any such event, Priority Mortgagee may, but
shall not be obligated to, demand, claim and collect any such payment or distribution that would,
but for these subordination provisions, be payable or deliverable with respect to the Lease
Agreement. In the event of the occurrence of any of the events set forth in this Section
3.12(c)(i), (ii) or (iii) above and until either Priority Mortgagee gives its written consent to
Grantee or the Revenue Bond Lease and related Industrial Revenue Bonds shall have been fully
paid and satisfied, no payment shall be made to or accepted by Grantee in respect of the Lease
Agreement, except for payments under the Sales Tax Refund Pledge and Security Agreement (or
Pilot Payments.

executed and delivered, to Assignee such further instruments and do and cause to be done such
further acts as may be reasonably necessary or proper in the opinion of Assignee or its counsel to
carry out more effectively the provisions and purposes of this Agreement.
4.11 Indemnity. Assignor hereby agrees to indemnify Assignee and its officers,
directors, agents, and attorneys against, and to hold Assignee and all such other persons harmless
from all losses resulting from any representation or warranty made by Assignor or on Assignor's
behalf pursuant to this Agreement having been false when made, or resulting from Assignor's
breach of any of the covenants set forth in this Agreement or the Lease. This agreement of
indemnity shall be a continuing agreement and shall survive payment of the Lease and
termination of this Agreement.
4.12 Enforcement and Waiver by Assignee. Assignee shall have the right at all times
to enforce the provisions of this Agreement in strict accordance with the terms hereof,
notwithstanding any conduct or custom on the part of Assignee in refraining from so doing at
any time or times. The failure of Assignee at any time or times to enforce its rights under such
provisions, strictly in accordance with the same, shall not be construed as having created a
custom in any way or manner contrary to specific provisions of this Agreement or as having in
any way or manner modified or waived the same. All rights and remedies of Assignee are
cumulative and concurrent and the exercise of one right or remedy shall not be deemed a waiver
or release of any other right or remedy.
4.13 Expenses of Assignee. Assignor will, on demand, reimburse Assignee for all
expenses incurred by Assignee in connection with the preparation, administration, amendment,
modification or enforcement of this Agreement and/or in the collection of any amounts owing
from Assignor or any other Person to Assignee under this Agreement and, until so paid, the
amount of such expenses shall be added to and become part of the Additional rent due and
payable under the Lease.
4.14 Attorneys' Fees. If at any time or times hereafter Assignee employs counsel to
advise or provide other representation with respect to this Agreement or any other agreement,
document or instrument heretofore, now or hereafter executed by Assignor and delivered to
Assignee with respect to the obligations of the Assignor under this Agreement, or to commence,
defend or intervene, file a petition, complaint, answer, motion or other pleadings or to take any
other action in or with respect to any suit or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other
agreement, instrument or document heretofore, now or hereafter executed by Assignor and
delivered to Assignee with respect to the obligations of the Assignor under this Agreement, or to
represent Assignee in any litigation with respect to the affairs of Assignor, or to enforce any
rights of Assignee or obligations of Assignor or any other Person which may be obligated to
Assignee by virtue of this Agreement or any other agreement, document or instrument
heretofore, now or hereafter delivered to Assignee by or for the benefit of Assignor with respect
to the obligations of the Assignor under this Agreement, or to collect from Assignor any amounts
owing hereunder, then in any such event, all of the Attorneys' Fees incurred by Assignee arising
from such services and any expenses, costs and charges relating thereto shall constitute
additional obligations of Assignor payable on demand and, until so paid, shall be added to and
become part of the obligations of the Assignor under this Agreement.
4.15 Notices. All notices and other communications from any party to any other party
hereunder shall be given and deemed received when given.
4.16 Governing Law. This Agreement is entered into and performable in McCracken
County, Kentucky, and the substantive laws, without giving effect to principles of conflict of
laws, of the United States and the State of Kentucky shall govern the construction of this
Agreement and the documents executed and delivered pursuant hereto, and the rights and
remedies of the parties hereto and thereto, except to the extent that the location of any Collateral
in a state or Jurisdiction other than Kentucky requires that the perfection of Assignee's Lien
hereunder, and the enforcement of certain of Assignee's remedies with respect to the Collateral,
be governed by the laws of such other state or Jurisdiction.
