revocable license to collect the Income and to retain, use and enjoy the same
and to exercise the rights granted herein. The license herein granted may be
revoked by Assignee by written notice to Assignor upon the occurrence and during

[URC ASSIGNMENT OF LEASES, RENTS AND INCOME]
Section 3. ASSIGNEE'S RIGHTS AND REMEDIES. Upon the occurrence and
during the continuance of any Event of Default under this Assignment, the
Mortgage or the URC Loan Agreement, Assignee shall have all of the rights,
remedies and benefits granted to it under the Mortgage with respect to the
Leases and Income, it being agreed and understood that for purposes of this
SECTION 3, (i) the term "Mortgaged Property" as used in the Mortgage includes
the Site, the Facilities, the Easement Premises, the Leases and Income, (ii)
references therein to "Mortgagor" shall be deemed to be references to Assignor
and (iii) references therein to "Mortgagee" shall be deemed to be references to
Assignee.
Section 4. RIGHTS IN RESPECT OF THE MORTGAGED PROPERTY. If a default
under the Mortgage or the URC Loan Agreement shall have occurred and be
continuing, and in addition to the right to collect, use and apply Income as
more fully described in SECTION 5 below, and whether or not foreclosure has or
shall have been instituted, Assignee shall have the unqualified and absolute
right to enter upon and take possession of, and manage and operate, any part of
or all of the Mortgaged Property and to carry on the business and exercise the
rights and powers of Assignor with respect to the Mortgaged Property.
Section 5. RIGHTS IN RESPECT OF INCOME. If a default under the Mortgage
or the URC Loan Agreement shall have occurred and be continuing, Assignee shall
have the unqualified and absolute right, whether or not Assignee takes
possession of the Mortgaged Property, to receive the Income and to use and apply
the Income in accordance with the terms of the Indenture provided that Assignee
shall first have the right to apply Income to (i) the operation and maintenance
of the Mortgaged Property (as more fully described in SECTION 4 above) and (ii)
the payment of the Secured Obligations until the same have been repaid in full.
Section 6. RELEASE. Assignee shall not, if in fact it chooses to
exercise any or all of the rights given to Assignee in SECTIONS 4 and 5
(collectively, the "RIGHTS"), be liable to Assignor for any act done or anything
omitted to be done by it in good faith in connection with the management or
operation of the Mortgaged Property, except for the consequences of its own
gross negligence or willful misconduct.
Section 7. POWER OF ATTORNEY. Assignor hereby irrevocably constitutes
and appoints Assignee (acting itself or by its agents, servants or attorneys, or
by such officers or agents as it may appoint, or by a court-appointed receiver)
its true and lawful attorney and agent, coupled with an interest, to undertake
and execute, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, any
or all of the Rights with the same force and effect as if undertaken or executed
by Assignor.
Section 8. UNTIL AND UNLESS LICENSE REVOKED. Until and unless the
license granted in SECTION 2 above is so revoked, Assignor agrees to collect and
receive the Income and to apply the Income in accordance with the URC Documents
or otherwise to the payment of the Secured Obligations, and all expenses that
Assignor may be authorized to make under this Assignment, the Mortgage or the
other URC Security Documents. In no event shall the execution and delivery of
this Assignment or the exercise by Assignee (if Assignee so chooses) of any of
the Rights, release Assignor from any of its obligations under any of the Leases
or be deemed to be a
[URC ASSIGNMENT OF LEASES, RENTS AND INCOME]
waiver by Assignee or its successors and assigns of the right to enforce the
Secured Obligations in strict accordance with the terms and provisions of this
Assignment, the Mortgage and the other URC Security Documents.
Section 9. NO FURTHER ASSIGNMENT. Assignor covenants that so long as
any of the Secured Obligations shall remain unpaid, Assignor will make no
assignment, pledge or other disposition of, nor encumber, any of the Leases or
the Income except as permitted under the terms of the URC Documents.
Section 10. SCHEDULE OF LEASES. At any time, and from time to time, on
reasonable notice from Assignee, Assignor shall deliver to Assignee a schedule
of all Leases then in effect, which schedule shall include such information as
Assignee may reasonably request. If requested by Assignee, Assignor shall also
deliver photocopies of all Leases accompanied by the certificate of Assignor
that such copies are true and complete.
Section 11. NOTICE TO TENANTS. Assignor, for the benefit of Assignee
and each Tenant, hereby covenants and agrees that a notice in writing by
Assignee to Tenants advising them that Assignor has suffered an Event of Default
hereunder and requesting that all future payments of rent, additional rent or
other charges under the Leases be made to Assignee (or its agent) or to accept
performance by Assignee of Assignor's obligations under the Leases, as the case
may be, shall be construed as conclusive authority to such Tenants that such
payments are to be made to Assignee (or its agent) or such performance is to be
accepted from Assignee (or its agent). Such Tenants shall be fully released and
protected by Assignor in making such payments to or accepting such performance
from Assignee (or its agent); and Assignor hereby waives any claims against such
Tenants and irrevocably constitutes and appoints Assignee the attorney-in-fact
and agent of Assignor, coupled with an interest, for the purpose of endorsing
the consent of Assignor on any such notice.
Section 12. ATTORNMENT BY TENANTS. In the event Assignee or its
designee acquires the Premises pursuant to a foreclosure proceeding or a deed in
lieu of foreclosure, each party under a Lease shall, at the option of Assignee,
attorn to any Person succeeding to the interest of Assignor as a result of such
action and shall recognize such Person in the place of Assignor under the
applicable Lease without change in the terms or other provisions thereof. To the
extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, such Person shall not be (i)
liable for any act or omission of any Person preceding such Person under such
Lease (including Assignor), (ii) subject to any offsets or defenses against any
Person preceding such Person (including Assignor), or (iii) bound by (a) any
payment of rent or additional rent made more than one month in advance of its
due date (b) any obligation to make any payment to, or to undertake or complete
any construction for, such tenant, or (c) any amendment or modification of any
such Lease made without Assignee's consent and which, pursuant to the Financing
Documents, required Assignee's consent. Each party to a Lease shall, upon
request of Assignee or such Person, execute and deliver instruments confirming
such attornment, but Assignor shall have no liability if such party fails to do
so.
[URC ASSIGNMENT OF LEASES, RENTS AND INCOME]
Section 13. RIGHTS AND REMEDIES CUMULATIVE. The rights and remedies of
Assignee hereunder are cumulative and are not in lieu of, but are in addition
to, and shall not be affected by the exercise of, and may be exercised
concurrently with, any other rights and remedies which Assignee shall have under
or by virtue of law or equity, this Assignment or any other URC Documents.
Section 14. ASSIGNMENT BY ASSIGNEE. Assignee may assign its interest in
this Assignment to any subsequent holder of the Mortgage or to any party who
acquires title to the Premises by foreclosure or pursuant to a deed in lieu
thereof. No such party who acquires title to the Premises by foreclosure or deed
in lieu thereof shall be liable to account to Assignor for any Income thereafter
accruing.

the Mortgage shall constitute an Event of Default hereunder.

Section 22. CONFLICTS AND INCONSISTENCIES. In the event of any
conflicts or inconsistencies among the terms of this Assignment and the
Indenture or the Mortgage, the terms of the Indenture or Mortgage, as the case
may be, shall govern and control.
Section 23. SEVERABILITY. If any provision of this Assignment or the

each provision of this Assignment shall be valid and enforceable to the
fullest extent permitted by law.
Section 24. CONTROLLING LAW. This Assignment shall be governed by, and
construed and enforced in accordance with, the laws of the State of New Jersey.
Section 25. TERMINATION. This Assignment shall automatically terminate
and cease to be of any further force or effect upon payment in full of the
Secured Obligations and the fulfillment of the conditions to the release of the
Mortgage; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that this Assignment shall be reinstated if at any
time payment of all or any part of the Secured Obligations is rescinded or
otherwise must be restored or returned by Assignee (or any entity for whom it
acts) upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of Assignor or
otherwise, as though such payment had not been made. Upon such termination,
Assignee shall, at Assignor's direction, execute and deliver to Assignor such

authorities granted herein, provided, however, that no such written instrument
shall be required in order to make the terms hereof effective.

Assignor of its obligations under this Assignment, or any part thereof, or for
any claim based thereon or otherwise in respect thereof or related thereto, no
recourse shall be had to any Affiliate of Assignor or any incorporators,
officers, directors or employees thereof, and no judgment relating to the
obligations of Assignor under this Agreement, the Mortgage, the URC Loan
Agreement or any part thereof, or for any claim based thereon or otherwise in
respect thereof or related thereto, shall be obtainable by Assignee against any
Members or Affiliate of Assignor or any other incorporator, stockholder,
officer, employee or director past, present or future of Assignor or any
Affiliate of Assignor; provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall
prevent the taking of any action permitted by law against Assignor or any of its
Affiliates, or in any way affect or impair the rights of the Assignee to take
any action permitted by law, in either case to realize upon the Collateral and,
provided further, that nothing herein shall be deemed to affect the obligations
of any Affiliate of Assignor under any document to which such Affiliate is a
party.
