be reasonably acceptable to Mortgagee. Subject in all respects to this Section 5.26, Mortgagee agrees that Citadel Cinemas, Inc. (the "Managing Agent") is acceptable as managing agent as of the date hereof and approves the Management Agreement between Mortgagor and Managing Agent, as amended, copies of which have been furnished to Mortgagee. Mortgagor shall cause any manager of the Mortgaged Property to agree that any management agreement shall be subject and subordinate in all respects to the Loan and the lien of this Mortgage and the other Loan Documents. The management agreement may not be modified, amended, or terminated by Mortgagor without Mortgagee's prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Mortgagor shall not consent to the assignment or transfer by a manager of any of its rights or obligations under its management agreement, without the prior written consent of Mortgagee, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld.

5.27Debt Service Coverage. Mortgagor shall at all times maintain a minimum Debt Service Coverage Ratio of at least 1.50:1.00, tested annually, commencing with the calendar year ending December 31, 2023, "Debt Service Coverage Ratio" means the ratio of (a) net income (which shall include, among other things, all rent and additional rent payable under the Existing Lease, without deduction for the expense represented by such rent and additional rent payable under the Existing Lease) plus depreciation and amortization expense plus interest expense less distributions to any person other than to an Affiliate of Guarantor; to (b) the annual payments of principal and interest hereunder and under the Note. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to the calendar year ending December 31, 2023 only, ''Debt Service Coverage Ratio" shall mean the ratio of (a) annualized net income based upon the fourth quarter ending December 31 of each calendar year (which shall include, among other things, all rent and additional rent payable under the Existing Lease, without deduction for the expense represented by such rent and additional rent payable under the Existing Lease) plus depreciation and amortization expense plus interest expense less distributions to any person other than to an Affiliate of Guarantor; to (b) the annual payments of principal and interest hereunder and under the Note. Failure to comply with the provisions of this paragraph, continuing within thirty (30) days after notice, shall constitute an Event of Default under this Mortgage as if such default were specifically listed in Section 8 hereof. If, at any time, a receiver is appointed with respect to all or any portion of the Mortgaged Property, Mortgagor agrees that the order appointing the receiver may contain a provision requiring the receiver to pay all debt service payments under any loan evidenced by the Note and/or secured by this Mortgage, it being recognized that such debt service payments are proper obligations of Mortgagor and must be paid out of the rental charges payable under any leases.

5.28No Stay; Exemption or Moratorium. The Mortgagor will not, except as, and in such event only to the extent, required by law, at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take any benefit or advantage of any stay or extension or moratorium law, any exemption from execution or sale of the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof, wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, which may affect the covenants and terms of performance of this Mortgage, nor claim, take or insist upon any benefit or advantage of any law now or hereafter in force providing

(d)Interruption Insurance. Business interruption insurance for loss caused by perils of the type covered by the above-referenced casualty insurance in amounts as may be reasonably required by Mortgagee covering the loss of rental income and all expenses and carrying costs of the Mortgaged Property for a period of not less than one (I) year.

(f)Policy Terms. All policies shall meet the following requirements:

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the cost of restoration, as estimated by Mortgagee in its sole discretion, does not exceed fifteen (15%) percent of the then outstanding principal balance of the Loan, then, provided there then exists no Event of Default or state of facts which with the giving of notice and passage of time, or both, would become an Event of Default hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents, the Awards and Proceeds of such casualty loss shall be made available for the restoration of the Mortgaged  Property and in such event shall not cause an acceleration, nor permit Mortgagee to accelerate, the balance due under the Note.



SECTION 7-ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS



7.1Environmental Representations. Except as otherwise expressly set forth in the Environmental Report, Mortgagor hereby represents and warrants to Mortgagee that:



(a)Neither Mortgagor nor, to the best knowledge of Mortgagor, any other existing or former occupant of the Mortgaged Property, has (i) Used any Hazardous Substances in violation of any Environmental Law, (ii) received any notice, or is on notice, of any claim, investigation, cleanup or testing program, government expenditures, litigation or administrative proceeding, actual or threatened, or any order, writ or judgment that relates to any Use of pollutants of any kind, including any Hazardous Substances, on, or by any occupant of, the Mortgaged Property.

maintenance uses or as specifically permitted in advance in writing by Mortgagee in its absolute discretion.

7.3Notice to Mortgagee. Mortgagor shall notify Mortgagee immediately in writing upon learning of:



(a)any spill, discharge or release of any Hazardous Substances on or near the Mortgaged Property that may involve a cleanup;



(b)any circumstances that may result in a violation of Section 7.2;



(c)any governmental inquiry or inspection is undertaken or an enforcement notice issued with respect to Hazardous Substances on or Used with respect to the Mortgaged Property.

7.7Environmental Report. Mortgagor has fully examined and considered the Environmental Review of Merritt Environmental Consulting Corp. dated April 29, 20I 6 in review of the Phase I Environmental Site Assessment dated June 12, 2012 prepared by Nova Consulting Group, Inc. for Sovereign Santander (collectively, the "Environmental Report") and has no actual knowledge of any environmental condition on or affecting the Mortgaged Property which is not set forth in such report.
