which event the Mortgagor shall promptly pay and cause to be satisfied and
discharged such unpaid item.

worker's compensation coverage or cause the same to be maintained to the extent
required by applicable law.
8. Self-Insurance. Notwithstanding the provisions of Sections 6 and 7,
but subject to the requirements of Article V of the Agreement, if the Mortgagor
shall insure similar properties by self-insurance, the Mortgagor, at the
Mortgagor's election, may insure the Mortgaged Property, partially or wholly by
means of an adequate self-insurance fund set aside and maintained out of its
earnings, or in conjunction with other companies through an insurance trust or
other arrangement.
9. Condemnation. The net proceeds of any taking by the power of eminent
domain of all or a portion of the Mortgaged Property shall be applied as
provided in Section 6.2 of the Agreement.
10. Advances. If the Mortgagor fails to pay, subject to any right
hereunder to contest, any claim, lien, or encumbrance (other than Permitted
Encumbrances), or, prior to delinquency, any tax or assessment, or, when due,
any insurance premium, or to keep the Mortgaged Property in repair, or shall
commit or permit waste, or if there shall be commenced any action or proceeding
affecting the Mortgaged Property or the title thereto, or the interest of the
Trustee therein, including, but not limited to, eminent domain and bankruptcy or
reorganization proceedings, then the Trustee, at its option, may pay said claim,
lien, encumbrance, tax assessment or premium, with right of subrogation
thereunder, may make such repairs and take such steps as it deems advisable to
prevent or cure such waste, and may appear in any such action or proceeding and
retain counsel therein, and take such action therein as the Trustee deems
advisable, and for any of said purposes the Trustee may advance such sums of
money, including all costs, reasonable attorneys' fees and other items of
expense as it deems necessary. The Mortgagor shall pay to the Trustee all sums
of money so advanced by the Trustee together with interest on each such advance
at two percent (2%) in excess of the Prime Rate, and the repayment of such
advances shall be secured hereby. In making any payment or securing any
performance relating to any obligation of the Mortgagor under the Mortgage, the
Trustee, so long as it acts in good faith, shall be the sole judge of the
legality, validity and amount of any lien or encumbrance and of all other
matters necessary to be determined in satisfaction thereof. No such action of
the Trustee shall ever be considered as a waiver of any right accruing to it
hereunder. The Trustee shall not ever be held accountable for any delay in
making any such payment, which delay may result in any additional interest,
costs, charges or expenses.
11. Attorneys' Fees. In case of any action or any proceedings in any
court to collect any sums payable or secured by this
-6-
Mortgage or to protect the lien of the Trustee or in any other case permitted by

the declaration of an acceleration of the Bonds pursuant to the Indenture, the
Trustee may exercise one or more of the following remedies (no remedy hereunder
intended to be exclusive of any other remedy hereunder, under any of the Secured
Agreements or under the Indenture):
(a) The Trustee may require the Mortgagor, upon demand of the Trustee,
to forthwith surrender, and the Trustee may, to the extent permitted by
applicable law, by such officer, agent or receiver as it may appoint, all
without regard to the value of the security hereof, take possession of, all or
any part of the Mortgaged Property together with the books, papers and accounts
of the Mortgagor pertaining thereto, and make all needful repairs and
improvements as the Trustee shall deem necessary or appropriate, and lease or
sell the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof in the name and for the account
of the Mortgagor and collect, receive and sequester the rental therefrom, and

compensation to the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any charges of the
Trustee hereunder, and any taxes and assessments and other charges due and
payable which the Trustee may deem it wise to pay, and all expenses of such
repairs and improvements, and apply the remainder of the moneys so received to
the payment of the indebtedness secured hereby. Whenever all that is due upon
the indebtedness secured hereby shall have been paid and all defaults made good,
the Trustee shall surrender whatever possession the Trustee shall retain to the
Mortgagor; the same right of entry, however, shall exist upon any subsequent
default.
(b) The Trustee may enter and take possession of the Mortgaged
Property, and lease the Mortgaged Property for the account of the Mortgagor,
holding the Mortgagor liable for all payments due to the effective date of such
leasing and for the difference in the rent and other amounts paid by the lessee
pursuant to such lease and the amounts payable by the Mortgagor on account of
the indebtedness secured hereby.
(c) Subject to any mandatory requirements of applicable law, the
Trustee may sell the Mortgaged Property as an entirety or from time to time in
part to the highest bidder at public auction at such place and at such time
(which sale may be adjourned from time to time in the discretion of the Trustee
by announcement at
-7-
the time and place fixed for such sale, without further notice) and upon such
terms as the Trustee may fix and briefly specify in a notice of sale to be
published once each week for four (4) successive weeks prior to such sale in a
newspaper of general circulation in the county in which the Mortgaged Property
is located and in such event the Trustee may bid for or become the purchaser of
the Mortgaged Property at the public auction and be entitled to have the
purchase price payable at the public auction payable by credit for the balance
due and payable hereunder in respect of the indebtedness secured hereby.
(d) The Trustee may foreclose this Mortgage by judicial proceedings in
the manner provided by the laws of the State of New Jersey for the foreclosure
of mortgages, and in such event the Trustee may bid for or become the purchaser
of the Mortgaged Property at the foreclosure sale and be entitled to have the

secured hereby.

secured creditors under the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in the State of

provisions of this Mortgage, the Trustee hereby agrees, subject to the
provisions of the Agreement, at any time and from time to time, to release from
this Mortgage (i) any unimproved part of the Site, provided such release shall
not adversely affect the value of the Mortgaged Property, or (ii) any part of
the Site with respect to which fee title is to be conveyed to a railroad, public
utility or public body in order that railroad service, utility services or roads
may be provided for the Mortgaged Property, upon receipt of:
(a) Copies of the instrument of release, in recordable form.

both would constitute a "Default" has occurred under the Secured Agreements or
the Indenture, (ii) giving an adequate legal description of that portion of the
Site to be released, (iii) stating the purpose for which the release is desired,
(iv) requesting such release, and (v) approving such release.
(c) If applicable, a copy of the instrument conveying the portion of
the Site to be released.
-8-
(d) Any instrument or instruments required by the terms of such
release.
(e) A certificate of an independent engineer acceptable to the Trustee
dated not more than sixty (60) days prior to the date of the release and stating
that, in the opinion of such engineer (i) the portion of the Site so proposed to
be released is necessary or desirable in order to obtain railroad service,
utility services or roads to benefit the Mortgaged Property, or is not otherwise
needed for the efficient operation of the Mortgaged Property for the purpose
stated in the Agreement and (ii) the release so proposed to be made will not
impair the usefulness of the Mortgaged Property as a facility for the purposes
for which it was designed and for such purposes as shall be permitted by the Act
and will not destroy the means of ingress thereinto and egress therefrom.
Provided, however, that if the portion of the, Site to be released has
transportation or utility facilities located upon it, the Mortgagor shall retain
an easement to use such facilities to the extent necessary for the efficient
operation of the Mortgaged Property.
The Trustee agrees that upon receipt of the items required in this
Section to be furnished by the Mortgagor, it will promptly execute and deliver
the proposed release covering the portion of the Site to be released. In the
event of any such release, the Mortgagor shall not be entitled to any
postponement, abatement or diminution of amounts payable on account of the
indebtedness secured hereby.
14. Release of Items of Equipment. In any instance where the Mortgagor
in its sole discretion determines that any items of the Equipment have become
obsolete, worn out, unsuitable, inappropriate or unnecessary for its purposes,
and so long as no "Default" or any condition or event which, with the giving of
notice or the passage of time or both would constitute a "Default" has occurred
under the Secured Agreements or the Indenture, the Mortgagor may remove such
Equipment from the Mortgaged Property and sell, trade-in, exchange or otherwise
dispose of such Equipment (as a whole or in part) without any responsibility or
accountability to the Trustee therefor, provided that the Mortgagor shall
substitute and install anywhere in the Mortgaged Property other machinery or
equipment having equal or greater utility or value (but not necessarily having
the same function) in the operation of the Mortgaged Property as a modern
facility, all of which substituted machinery or equipment shall be free of all
liens and encumbrances (other than Permitted Encumbrances) and shall become a
part of the property secured hereunder.
-9-
The removal from the Mortgaged Property of any portion of the Equipment
pursuant to the provisions of this Section shall not entitle the Mortgagor to
any postponement, abatement or diminution in amounts payable on account of the
indebtedness secured hereby.
Upon the request of the Mortgagor, the Trustee shall deliver or cause
to be delivered to the Mortgagor, such instruments as are reasonably necessary
to confirm the release of removed items of the Equipment from the lien of this
Mortgage and cancel any security interest with respect thereto, provided that
such request is accompanied by a certificate of an officer of the Mortgagor to
the effect that such release complies in all respects with this Section.
15. Granting of Easements. If no "Default" or any condition or event
which, with the giving of notice or the passage of time or both would constitute
a "Default" has occurred under the Secured Agreements or the Indenture, the
Mortgagor may at any time or times, grant easements, licenses, rights-of-way
(including the dedication of public highways) and other rights or privileges in
the nature of easements with respect to any property or rights included in the
Mortgaged Property, free from the lien and security interest afforded by or
under this Mortgage or the Mortgagor may reconvey existing easements, licenses,
rights-of-way and other rights and privileges with or without consideration, and
the Trustee agrees to execute and deliver or cause to be executed and delivered
any instruments necessary or appropriate to confirm and grant or convey any such
easement, license, right-of-way or other grant or privilege upon receipt of: (1)
a copy of the instrument of grant or reconveyance; (2) a written statement
signed by an officer of the Mortgagor stating (i) that such grant or
reconveyance will not impair the effective use or interfere with the operation
of the Mortgaged Property and (ii) that such grant or reconveyance is not
detrimental to the proper conduct of the business of Mortgagor; and (3) an
opinion of independent counsel that such grant or reconveyance will not
materially weaken, diminish or impair the security afforded pursuant to the
terms of this Mortgage, and will not violate the terms, covenants or conditions
of any agreement or grant which the Mortgagor or the Issuer may have with the
United States, the State of New Jersey or any agency, department or political
subdivision thereof with respect to the Mortgaged Property or the Indenture.
16. No Waiver. No failure, forbearance or delay by the trustee in
exercising any right or remedy hereunder, under any Secured Agreement, or under
the Indenture, or otherwise afforded by law, shall operate as a waiver thereof
or preclude the exercise thereof in accordance herewith or therewith. No waiver
by the Trustee of any default shall constitute a waiver of or consent to
subsequent defaults. No withdrawal or abandonment of foreclosure proceedings by
the Trustee shall be taken or construed as a waiver
-10-
of its right to exercise any right or remedy hereunder by reason of any past,
present or future default; and, in like manner, the procurement of insurance or
the payment of taxes or other liens or charges by the Trustee shall not be taken
or construed as a waiver of its rights or remedies hereunder.
17. Waiver of Mortgagor. The Mortgagor, on behalf of itself and all
persons now or hereafter interested in the Mortgaged Property, to the fullest
extent permitted by applicable law, hereby waives all rights under all
appraisement, homestead, moratorium, valuation, exemption, stay, extension,
redemption and marshalling statutes, laws or equities now or hereafter existing,
and the Mortgagor agrees that no defense, claim or right based on any thereof
will be asserted, or may be enforced, in any action enforcing or relating to
this Mortgage or any of the Mortgaged Property. Without limiting the generality
of the preceding sentence, the Mortgagor, on its own behalf and on behalf of
each and every person acquiring any interest in or title to the Mortgaged
Property subsequent to the date of this Mortgage, hereby irrevocably waives any
and all rights of redemption from sale under any power contained herein or under
any sale pursuant to any statute, order, decree or judgment of any court.

the same manner and with the same effect as if the same were fully set forth
