Whereas, this Second Mortgage secures all of Mortgagor's obligations under the Note and under

due under the Note or this Second Mortgage.

IV. Charges and Liens. Mortgagor will pay, before the dates they are due, all payments of
principal, interest and other amounts due on the First Loan (as defined in Section VIII below),

may attain priority over this Second Mortgage. Upon written request, Mortgagor will promptly
furnish to Mortgagee receipts evidencing the payments. Mortgagor will promptly discharge any
lien (other than the First Mortgage) which has priority over this Second Mortgage.
V. Hazard or Property Insurance. Mortgagor will keep the Property insured against loss
by fire, hazards included within the term extended coverage and any other hazards, including
floods or flooding, as required by the First Mortgagee (as defined below). This insurance will be
maintained in the amounts and for the periods that the First Mortgagee requires. The insurance

coverage described above, Mortgagee may, at Mortgagee's option, obtain coverage to protect
Mortgagee's rights in the Property in accordance with Section VII below. All insurance policies
and renewals will include a standard mortgage clause, and name Mortgagee as an additional
insured and (after the First Mortgagee) loss payee. Mortgagor will provide Mortgagee with
certificates of such insurance. In the event of an accident, fire or other casualty, Mortgagor will

the Property damaged; provided, however, that if the First Mortgagee has consented to using the
insurance proceeds to restore or rebuild the portion of the Property that was damaged or
destroyed, Mortgagee will also agree to restoration or rebuilding upon the same terms and
conditions established in the First Mortgage. Mortgagee may use the proceeds to repair or restore
the Property or to pay sums secured by this Second Mortgage, whether or not then due. Unless
Mortgagee and Mortgagor otherwise agree in writing, any application of proceeds to principal
will not extend or postpone the due date of the monthly payments due under the Note, or change
the amount of the payments. If the Property is acquired by Mortgagee, Mortgagor's right to any
insurance policies and proceeds resulting from damage to the Property prior to the acquisition
will pass to Mortgagee to the extent of the sums secured by this Second Mortgage immediately
prior to the acquisition.
