Reading International, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
For the Six Months Ended June 30, 2012
 

Note 1 – Basis of Presentation

Reading International, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“RDI” and collectively with our consolidated subsidiaries and corporate predecessors, the “Company,” “Reading” and “we,” “us,” or “our”), was founded in 1983 as a Delaware corporation and reincorporated in 1999 in Nevada.  Our businesses consist primarily of:

·  
the development, ownership and operation of multiplex cinemas in the United States, Australia, and New Zealand; and

·  
the development, ownership, and operation of retail and commercial real estate in Australia, New Zealand, and the United States.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) for interim reporting and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim reporting.  As such, certain information and disclosures typically required by US GAAP for complete financial statements have been condensed or omitted.  The financial information presented in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2012 (the “June Report”) should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report filed on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011 (our “2011 Annual Report”) which contains the latest audited financial statements and related notes.  The periods presented in this document are the three (“2012 Quarter”) and six (“2012 Six Months”) months ended June 30, 2012 and the three (“2011 Quarter”) and six (“2011 Six Months”) months ended June 30, 2011.

In the opinion of management, all adjustments of a normal recurring nature considered necessary to present fairly in all material respects our financial position as of June 30, 2012 and our results of our operations and cash flows for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 have been made.  The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for the entire year.

Liquidity Requirements
 
Liberty Theatre Term Loans
 
 
As our Liberty Theater Term Loans are due to mature on April 1, 2013, the June 30, 2012 outstanding balance of this debt of $6.5 million is classified as current on our balance sheet.  We intend to refinance the property’s debt with similar financing.
 
Tax Settlement Liability

As indicated in our 2011 Annual Report, in accordance with the agreement between the U.S. Internal Revenue Service and our subsidiary, Craig Corporation, we are obligated to pay $290,000 per month, $3.5 million per year, in settlement of our tax liability for the tax year ended June 30, 1997.

 
-6-

 
For the abovementioned liabilities, we believe that we have sufficient borrowing capacity under our various credit facilities, together with our $30.7 million of cash and time deposits, to meet our anticipated short-term working capital requirements for the next twelve months.

Time Deposits

Time deposits are cash depository investments in which the maturity of the investments is greater than 90 days.  During May 2012, we purchased $8.0 million in U.S. dollar time deposits in Australia which are scheduled to mature on January 3, 2013 having an interest rate of 1.26%.

Marketable Securities

We had investments in marketable securities of $49,000 and $2.9 million at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively.  We account for these investments as available for sale investments.  We assess our investment in marketable securities for other-than-temporary impairments in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 320-10 for each applicable reporting period.  These investments have a cumulative income (loss) of $4,000 and $(11,000) included in accumulated other comprehensive income at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively.  For the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, our net unrealized income (loss) on marketable securities was $3,000 and ($7,000), respectively.  For the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, our net unrealized gain (loss) on marketable securities was $126,000 and $(43,000), respectively.  During the six months ended June 30, 2012, we sold $3.0 million of our marketable securities with a realized gain of $109,000.

Deferred Leasing Costs

We amortize direct costs incurred in connection with obtaining tenants over the respective term of the lease on a straight-line basis.

Deferred Financing Costs

We amortize direct costs incurred in connection with obtaining financing over the term of the loan using the effective interest method, or the straight-line method, if the result is not materially different.  In addition, interest on loans with increasing interest rates and scheduled principal pre-payments, is also recognized using the effective interest method.

Accounting Pronouncements Adopted During 2012

FASB ASU No. 2011-05 - Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Presentation of Comprehensive Income

ASU No. 2011-05 requires that all non-owner changes in stockholders’ equity be presented either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements, eliminating the option to present other comprehensive income in the statement of changes in equity.  Under either choice, items that are reclassified from other comprehensive income to net income are required to be presented on the face of the financial statements where the components of net income and the components of other comprehensive income are presented.  This amendment is effective for our Company in 2012 and was applied retrospectively.

 
-7-

 
FASB ASU No. 2011-08 - Intangibles—Goodwill and Other

ASU No. 2011-08 relates to a change in the annual test of goodwill for impairment.  The statement permits an entity to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform the two-step goodwill impairment test described in Topic 350.  This amendment is effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011.

New Accounting Pronouncements

No new pronouncements were made pertaining to our Company’s accounting during the 2012 Quarter.

 
Note 2 – Equity and Stock Based Compensation
 
 
Stock-Based Compensation
 
 
During the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, we issued 155,925 and 174,825, respectively, of Class A Nonvoting shares to an executive employee associated with the vesting of his prior years’ stock grants, and, during  the three months ended June 30, 2012, we issued 9,680 as a one-time stock grant of Class A Nonvoting shares to our employees valued at $44,000 which we accounted for as compensation expense.  During the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, we accrued $238,000 and $476,000, respectively, in compensation expense associated with the vesting of executive employee stock grants. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, we accrued $188,000 and $375,000, respectively, in compensation expense associated with the vesting of executive employee stock grants.
 
 
Employee/Director Stock Option Plan
 
 
We have a long-term incentive stock option plan that provides for the grant to eligible employees, directors, and consultants of incentive or nonstatutory options to purchase shares of our Class A Nonvoting Common Stock and Class B Voting Common Stock.  Our 1999 Stock Option Plan expired in November 2009, and was replaced by our new 2010 Stock Incentive Plan, which was approved by the holders of our Class B Voting Common Stock in May 2010.
 
 
When the Company’s tax deduction from an option exercise exceeds the compensation cost resulting from the option, a tax benefit is created.  FASB ASC 718-20 relating to Stock-Based Compensation (“FASB ASC 718-20”), requires that excess tax benefits related to stock option exercises be reflected as financing cash inflows instead of operating cash inflows.  For the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, there was no impact to the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of cash flows because there were no recognized tax benefits from stock option exercises during these periods.
 
 
FASB ASC 718-20 requires companies to estimate forfeitures.  Based on our historical experience and the relative market price to strike price of the options, we do not currently estimate any forfeitures of vested or unvested options.
 
 
In accordance with FASB ASC 718-20, we estimate the fair value of our options using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, which takes into account assumptions such as the dividend yield, the risk-free interest rate, the expected stock price volatility, and the expected life of the options.  As we intend to retain all earnings, we exclude the dividend yield from the calculation.  We expense the estimated grant date fair values of options issued on a straight-line basis over the vesting period.
 
 
For the 40,000 options granted during 2012, we estimated the fair value of these options at the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions:
 

   
2012
 
Stock option exercise price
  $ 4.99  
Risk-free interest rate
    1.710%  
Expected dividend yield
    --  
Expected option life
    10 yrs   
Expected volatility
    31.87%  
Weighted average fair value
  $ 2.19  
 
We did not grant any options during the three or six months ended June 30, 2011.
 
 
Based on the above calculation and prior years’ assumptions, and, in accordance with the FASB ASC 718-20, we recorded compensation expense for the total estimated grant date fair value of stock options that vested of $89,000 and $169,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively, and $47,000 and $94,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively.  At June 30, 2012, the total unrecognized estimated compensation cost related to non-vested stock options granted was $27,000, which we expect to recognize over a weighted average vesting period of 0.17 years.  95,000 options were exercised during the six months ended June 30, 2012 having a realized value of $136,000 for which we received $308,000 of cash.  There were no options exercised during the six months ended June 30, 2011.  The intrinsic, unrealized value of all options outstanding, vested and expected to vest, at June 30, 2012 was $430,000 of which 77.7% are currently exercisable.
 
 
Pursuant to both our 1999 Stock Option Plan and our 2010 Stock Incentive Plan, all stock options expire within ten years of their grant date.  The aggregate total number of shares of Class A Nonvoting Common Stock and Class B Voting Common Stock authorized for issuance under our 2010 Stock Incentive Plan is 1,250,000.  At the discretion of our Compensation and Stock Options Committee, the vesting period of stock options is usually between zero and four years.

Note 3 – Business Segments

We organize our operations into two reportable business segments within the meaning of FASB ASC 280-10 - Segment Reporting.  Our reportable segments are (1) cinema exhibition and (2) real estate.  The cinema exhibition segment is engaged in the development, ownership, and operation of multiplex cinemas.  The real estate segment is engaged in the development, ownership, and operation of commercial properties.  Incident to our real estate operations we have acquired, and continue to hold, raw land in urban and suburban centers in Australia, New Zealand, and the United States.

The tables below summarize the results of operations for each of our principal business segments for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.  Operating expense includes costs associated with the day-to-day operations of the cinemas and the management of rental properties including our live theater assets (dollars in thousands):

Note 4 – Operations in Foreign Currency

We have significant assets in Australia and New Zealand.  To the extent possible, we conduct our Australian and New Zealand operations on a self-funding basis.  The carrying value of our Australian and New Zealand assets and liabilities fluctuate due to changes in the exchange rates between the US dollar and the functional currency of Australia (Australian dollar) and New Zealand (New Zealand dollar).  We have no derivative financial instruments to hedge against the risk of foreign currency exposure.

Presented in the table below are the currency exchange rates for Australia and New Zealand as of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011:

Note 5 – Earnings (Loss) Per Share

Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) attributable to Reading International, Inc. common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.  Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) attributable to Reading International, Inc. common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period after giving effect to all potentially dilutive common shares that would have been outstanding if the dilutive common shares had been issued.  Stock options and non-vested stock awards give rise to potentially dilutive common shares.  In accordance with FASB ASC 260-10 - Earnings Per Share, these shares are included in the diluted earnings per share calculation under the treasury stock method.  As noted in the table below, due to the small difference between the basic and diluted weighted average common shares, the basic and the diluted earnings (loss) per share are the same for each of the periods presented.  The following is a calculation of earnings (loss) per share (dollars in thousands, except share data):

Weighted average shares of common stock – basic
    23,009,209       22,789,718       22,969,392       22,749,202

    23,177,815       22,960,713       22,969,392       22,920,198  

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, we recorded losses from continuing operations; therefore, we excluded 168,606 of in-the-money incremental stock options from the computation of diluted loss per share because they were anti-dilutive.  For the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, the weighted average common stock – diluted included 170,995 of stock compensation and in-the-money incremental stock options.  In addition, 692,789 of out-of-the-money stock options were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings (loss) per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, and 714,417 of out-of-the-money stock options were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings (loss) per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011.


Note 6 – Property Acquired, Property Sold, Property Held for Sale, Property Held For and Under Development, and Property and Equipment

Acquisitions

Coachella, California Land Acquisition

On January 10, 2012, Shadow View Land and Farming, LLC, a limited liability company owned by our Company, acquired a 202-acre property, zoned for the development of up to 843 single-family residential units, located in the City of Coachella, California.  The property was acquired at a foreclosure auction for $5.5 million.  The property was acquired as a long-term investment in developable land. Half of the funds used to acquire the land were provided by Mr. James J. Cotter, our Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and controlling shareholder.  Upon the approval of our Conflicts Committee, these funds were converted on January 18, 2012 into a 50% interest.  The limited liability company is administratively managed by our Company.  See Note 14 – Noncontrolling Interests.



Disposals

Taringa

On February 21, 2012, we sold our three properties in the Taringa area of Brisbane, Australia consisting of approximately 1.1 acres for $1.9 million (AUS$1.8 million).

Note 8 – Goodwill and Intangible Assets

In accordance with FASB ASC 350-20-35, Goodwill - Subsequent Measurement and Impairment, we perform an annual impairment review in the fourth quarter of our goodwill and other intangible assets on a reporting unit basis, or earlier if changes in circumstances indicate an asset may be impaired.  No such circumstances existed during the 2012 Quarter.  As of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, we had goodwill consisting of the following (dollars in thousands):

Balance at June 30, 2012
  $ 17,312     $ 5,224     $ 22,536  

 
We have intangible assets other than goodwill that are subject to amortization, which we amortize over various periods.  We amortize our beneficial leases over the lease period, the longest of which is 30 years; our trade name using an accelerated amortization method over its estimated useful life of 45 years; and our other intangible assets over 10 years.  For the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, the amortization expense of intangibles totaled $572,000 and $1.2 million, respectively, and, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, the amortization expense of intangibles totaled $677,000 and $1.3 million, respectively.  The accumulated amortization of intangibles includes $540,000 and $406,000 of the amortization of acquired leases which are recorded in operating expense for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Pursuant to ASC 740-10, a provision should be made for the tax effect of earnings of foreign subsidiaries that are not permanently invested outside the United States.  Our intent is that earnings of our foreign subsidiaries are not permanently invested outside the United States.  Current earnings were available for distribution in the Reading Australia consolidated group of subsidiaries as of June 30, 2012.  There is no withholding tax on dividends paid by an Australian company to its 80% or more U.S. public company shareholder, thus we  have not provided foreign withholding taxes for these current retained earnings. We believe the U.S. tax impact of a dividend from our Australian subsidiary, net of loss carry forward and potential foreign tax credits, would not have a material effect on the tax provision as of June 30, 2012.
 
Deferred income taxes reflect the “temporary differences” between the financial statement carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes, adjusted by the relevant tax rate.  In accordance with FASB ASC 740-10 – Income Taxes (“ASC 740-10”), we record net deferred tax assets to the extent we believe these assets will more likely than not be realized.  In making such determination, we consider all available positive and negative evidence, including scheduled reversals of deferred tax assets and liabilities, projected future taxable income, tax planning strategies, and recent financial performance.  ASC 740-10 presumes that a valuation allowance is required when there is substantial negative evidence about realization of deferred tax assets, such as a pattern of losses in recent years, coupled with facts that suggest such losses may continue.
 
 
In the period ended June 30, 2011, the Company determined that substantial negative evidence regarding the realizable nature of deferred tax assets continues to exist in the U.S., New Zealand, and Puerto Rico subsidiaries, arising from ongoing pre-tax financial losses.  Accordingly, the Company continues to record a full valuation allowance for net deferred tax assets available in these subsidiaries.  After consideration of a number of factors for the Reading Australia group, including its recent history of pretax financial income, its expected future earnings, the increase in market value of its real estate assets, which would cause taxable gain if sold, and having executed in June 2011 a credit facility of over $100.0 million to resolve potential liquidity issues, the Company determined that it is more likely than not that deferred tax assets in Reading Australia will be realized.  Accordingly, during 2011, Reading Australia reversed $13.8 million of the valuation allowance previously recorded against its net deferred tax, which mainly reflects the loss carryforwards available to offset future taxable income in Australia.
 
 
We have accrued $25.1 million in income tax liabilities as of June 30, 2012, of which $14.6 million has been classified as income taxes payable and $10.5 million have been classified as non-current tax liabilities.  As part of current tax liabilities, we have accrued $3.5 million in connection with the negotiated Tax Court judgment, dated January 6, 2011, implementing our agreement with the IRS as to the final disposition of the 1996 tax litigation matter.  We believe these amounts represent an adequate provision for our income tax exposures, including income tax contingencies related to foreign withholding taxes.
 
 
In accordance with FASB ASC 740-10-25 – Income Taxes - Uncertain Tax Positions (“ASC 740-10-25”), we record interest and penalties related to income tax matters as part of income tax expense.
 
The following table is a summary of the activity related to unrecognized tax benefits, excluding interest and penalties, for the periods ending June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, and December 31, 2010 (dollars in thousands):

For the three months ended June 30, 2012 we recorded no material change to our gross unrecognized tax benefits.  The net tax balance is approximately $2.1 million, of which $1.0 million would impact the effective rate if recognized.
 
It is difficult to predict the timing and resolution of uncertain tax positions.  Based upon the Company’s assessment of many factors, including past experience and judgments about future events, it is probable that within the next 12 months the reserve for uncertain tax positions will increase within a range of $0.9 million to $1.8 million.  The reasons for such changes include but are not limited to tax positions expected to be taken during the next twelve months, reevaluation of current uncertain tax positions, expiring statutes of limitations, and interest related to the ”Tax Audit/Litigation” settlement which occurred January 6, 2011.

Our company and subsidiaries are subject to U.S. federal income tax, income tax in various U.S. states, and income tax in Australia, New Zealand, and Puerto Rico.
 
Generally, changes to our federal and most state income tax returns for the calendar year 2007 and earlier are barred by statutes of limitations.  Our income tax returns of Australia filed since inception in 1995 are generally open for examination because of operating losses.  The income tax returns filed in New Zealand and Puerto Rico for calendar year 2007 and afterward generally remain open for examination as of June 30, 2012.

Derivative Instruments

As indicated in Note 17 – Derivative Instruments, for our NAB Australian Corporate Credit Facility (“NAB Loan”) and GE Capital Term Loan (“GE Loan”), we have entered into interest rate swap agreements for all or part of these facilities.  These swap agreements result in us paying a total fixed interest rate of 8.15% (5.50% swap contract rate plus a 2.65% margin) for our NAB Loan and a total fixed interest rate of 5.84% (1.34% swap contract rate plus a 4.50% margin) for our GE Loan instead of the above indicated 6.28% and 5.50%, respectively, the obligatorily disclosed loan rates.
 
 
Trust Preferred Securities

Effective May 1, 2012, the interest rate on our Trust Preferred Securities changed from a fixed rate of 9.22%, which was in effect for the past five years, to a variable rate of 3 month LIBOR plus 4.00%, which will reset each quarter through the end of the loan.
 
 
Refinanced US Cinema 1, 2, 3 Loan

On June 28, 2012, Sutton Hill Properties LLC (“SHP”), one of our consolidated subsidiaries, paid off its Eurohypo AG, New York Branch loan with a new $15.0 million term loan (the “Sovereign Bank Loan”) from Sovereign Bank, N.A.  The Sovereign Bank Loan has a one-year term ending on June 27, 2013, with a one year extension option to June 26, 2014 subject to an extension fee equal to 1% of the ending principal balance and a compliance requirement with certain special covenants.  As we currently intend to exercise this option, we have classified this loan as long-term.  The terms of the Sovereign Bank Loan require interest only payments at LIBOR plus a 5.00% margin to be calculated and paid monthly.  This loan is secured by SHP’s interest in the Cinemas 1, 2, & 3 land and building.  The Sovereign Bank Loan covenants include maintaining a loan to value ratio of at least 50% of fair market value and an 11% debt yield (with a numerator of the cash available for debt service and a denominator of the outstanding principal balance of the loan). SHP is owned 75% by Reading and 25% by Sutton Hill Capital, LLC, a joint venture indirectly wholly owned by Mr. James J. Cotter, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, and an unrelated third party.  The Sovereign Bank Loan is further secured by a guaranty provided by Reading International, Inc.
 
Renewed New Zealand Credit Facility

On February 8, 2012, we received an approved amendment from Westpac renewing our existing $36.9 million (NZ$45.0 million) New Zealand credit facility with a 3-year credit facility.  The renewed facility decreased the overall facility by $4.1 million (NZ$5.0 million) to $32.8 million (NZ$40.0 million) and increased the facility margin from 0.55% to 2.0%.  No other significant changes to the facility were made.

Common Stock Issuance

During the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, we issued 155,925 and 174,825, respectively, of Class A Nonvoting shares to an executive employee associated with his prior years’ stock grant, and, during  the three months ended June 30, 2012, we issued 9,680 as a one-time stock grant of Class A Nonvoting shares to our employees valued at $44,000 which we accounted for as compensation expense.

95,000 options were exercised during the six months ended June 30, 2012 having a realized value of $136,000 for which we received $308,000 of cash.  There were no options exercised during the six months ended June 30, 2011.
 
 
Note 16 – Derivative Instruments

We are exposed to interest rate changes from our outstanding floating rate borrowings.  We manage our fixed to floating rate debt mix to mitigate the impact of adverse changes in interest rates on earnings and cash flows and on the market value of our borrowings.  From time to time, we may enter into interest rate hedging contracts, which effectively convert a portion of our variable rate debt to a fixed rate over the term of the interest rate swap.  In the case of our Australian borrowings, we are presently required to swap no less than 75% of our drawdowns under our Australian Corporate Credit Facility into fixed interest rate obligations.  In conjunction with this NAB Credit Facility, we entered into a five-year interest swap agreement, which swaps 100% of our variable rate loan based on BBSY for a 5.50% fixed rate loan, and we have contracted for balance step-downs that correspond with the loan’s principal payments through the termination of the loan.  Under our GE Capital Term Loan, we are required to swap no less than 50% of our variable rate drawdowns for the first three years of the loan agreement. We elected to swap 100% of the original loan balance on the GE Capital Term Loan and have contracted for balance step-downs that correspond with the loan’s principal payments through December 31, 2013.  For an explanation of the impact of these swaps on our interest paid for the periods, see Note 11 – Notes Payable.

In accordance with FASB ASC 815-10-35, Subsequent Valuation of Derivative Instruments and Hedging Instruments (“FASB ASC 815-10-35”), we marked our interest rate swap instruments to market on the consolidated balance sheet resulting in an increase in interest expense of $1.8 million and $1.5 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively, and an increase of  $1.5 million and $1.7 million in interest expense during the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively.  At June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, we recorded the fair market value of our interest rate swaps of $6.2 million and $4.7 million, respectively, as other long-term liabilities.  In accordance with FASB ASC 815-10-35, we have not designated any of our current interest rate swap positions as financial reporting hedges.


Note 17 – Fair Value of Financial Instruments

ASC 820-10 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value.  The statement requires that assets and liabilities carried at fair value be classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:
 
·  
Level 1: Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
 
·  
Level 2: Observable market based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data.
 
·  
Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are not corroborated by market data (were not used to value any of our assets requiring recurring measurements of fair value).
 
We used the following methods and assumptions to estimate the fair values of the assets and liabilities:

Level 1 Fair Value Measurements – are based on market quotes of our marketable securities.

Level 2 Fair Value MeasurementsInterest Rate Swaps – The fair value of interest rate swaps are estimated based on market data and quotes from counter parties to the agreements which are corroborated by market data.

Level 3 Fair Value MeasurementsImpaired Property – For assets measured on a non-recurring basis, such as real estate assets that are required to be recorded at fair value as a result of an impairment, our estimates of fair value are based on management’s best estimate derived from evaluating market sales data for comparable properties developed by a third party appraiser and arriving at management’s estimate of fair value based on such comparable data primarily based on properties with similar characteristics.

As of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, we held certain items that are required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis.  These included cash equivalents, time deposits, available for sale securities, and interest rate derivative contracts.  Cash equivalents consist of short-term, highly liquid, income-producing investments, all of which have maturities of 90 days or less.  Time deposits are cash depository investments in which the maturity of the investments is greater than 90 days.  Our available-for-sale securities primarily consist of investments associated with the ownership of marketable securities in New Zealand and the U.S.  Derivative instruments are related to our economic hedge of interest rates.
 
 
The fair values of the interest rate swap agreements are determined using the market standard methodology of discounting the future cash payments and cash receipts on the pay and receive legs of the interest swap agreements that have the net effect of swapping the estimated variable rate note payment stream for a fixed rate payment stream over the period of the swap.  The variable interest rates used in the calculation of projected receipts on the interest rate swap agreements are based on an expectation of future interest rates derived from observable market interest rate curves and volatilities.  To comply with the provisions of ASC 820-10, we incorporate credit valuation adjustments to reflect both our own nonperformance risk and the respective counterparty's nonperformance risk in the fair value measurements.  Although we have determined that the majority of the inputs used to value our derivatives fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the credit valuation adjustments associated with our derivatives utilize Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads to evaluate the likelihood of default by our counterparties and us.  However, as of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, we have assessed the significance of the impact of the credit valuation adjustments on the overall valuation and determined that the credit valuation adjustments are not significant to the overall valuation of our derivatives.  As a result, we have determined that our derivative valuations in their entirety are classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.  The nature of our interest rate swap derivative instruments is described in Note 16 – Derivative Instruments.

We have consistently applied these valuation techniques in all periods presented and believe we have obtained the most accurate information available for the types of derivative contracts we hold.  Additionally, there were no transfers of assets and liabilities between levels 1, 2, or 3 during the six months ended June 30, 2012.

The fair value of notes payable to related party cannot be determined due to the related party nature of the terms of the notes payable.
 
 
We estimated the fair value of our secured mortgage notes payable, our unsecured notes payable, trust preferred securities, and other debt instruments by performing discounted cash flow analyses using an appropriate market discount rate.  We calculated the market discount rate by obtaining period-end treasury rates for fixed-rate debt, or LIBOR rates for variable-rate debt, for maturities that correspond to the maturities of our debt, adding appropriate credit spreads derived from information obtained from third-party financial institutions.  These credit spreads take into account factors such as our credit standing, the maturity of the debt, whether the debt is secured or unsecured, and the loan-to-value ratios of the debt.

On July 20, 2012 we entered into an agreement to sell our Lake Taupo property for $3.9 million (NZ $4.9 million).  The transaction is subject to the satisfaction of several conditions.  Accordingly, no assurances can be given that the sale will ultimately be completed.   As of June 30, 2012, the property had a book value of $2.1 million (NZ$2.6 million) and is classified as held for sale on the accompanying balance sheet.  The results of operations from the Lake Taupo property have been included in continuing operations as the contributed revenue and net income from this property was not significant to the consolidated statements of operations for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2012 and 2011.


Item 2 – Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

 
We are an internationally diversified company principally focused on the development, ownership, and operation of entertainment and real property assets in the United States, Australia, and New Zealand.  Currently, we operate in two business segments:
 
 
·  
cinema exhibition, through our 56 multiplex cinemas; and
 
 
·  
real estate, including real estate development and the rental of retail, commercial and live theater assets.
 
 
We believe that these two business segments can complement one another, as we can use the comparatively consistent cash flows generated by our cinema operations to fund the front-end cash demands of our real estate development business.
 
 
We manage our worldwide cinema exhibition businesses under various different brands:
 
 
·  
in the US, under the Reading, Angelika Film Center, Consolidated Amusements, and City Cinemas brands;
 
 
·  
in Australia, under the Reading brand; and
 
 
·  
in New Zealand, under the Reading and Rialto brands.
 
 
We continue to consider opportunities to expand our cinema operations, while at the same time continuing to cull those cinema assets which are underperforming or have unacceptable risk profiles on a go forward basis.
 
 
Although we have curtailed our real estate development activities, we remain opportunistic in our acquisitions of both cinema and real estate assets.  Our business plan going forward is to continue the build-out of our existing development properties and to seek out additional, profitable real estate development opportunities while continuing to use and judiciously expand our presence in the cinema exhibition business by identifying, developing, and acquiring cinema properties when and where appropriate.  In addition, we will continue to investigate potential synergistic acquisitions that may not readily fall into either of our two currently identified segments.
 
 
On January 10, 2012, Shadow View Land and Farming, LLC, a limited liability company owned by our Company, acquired a 202-acre property, zoned for the development of up to 843 single-family residential units, located in the City of Coachella, California.  The property was acquired at a foreclosure auction for $5.5 million.  The property was acquired as a long-term investment in developable land.  Half of the funds used to acquire the land were provided by James J. Cotter, our Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and controlling shareholder.  Upon the approval of our Conflicts Committee, these funds were converted on January 18, 2012 into a 50% interest.   The limited liability company is administratively managed by our Company.
 
 
We continue to consider the potential sale of certain of our real estate assets.  As part of this business strategy, on February 21, 2012, we sold the three properties in the Taringa area of Brisbane, Australia of approximately 1.1 acres for $1.9 million (AUS$1.8 million).  Also, we continue to consider various methods to monetize all or at least the residential portion of our Burwood development site even though it cannot be classified as a property held for sale pursuant to FASB ASC 360-10-45.  Additionally, we are currently reevaluating our options for the Cinemas 1, 2, 3 property with an intent to potentially redevelop rather than sell the property.
 

Results of Operations

At June 30, 2012, we owned and operated 51 cinemas with 429 screens, had interests in certain unconsolidated joint ventures and entities that own an additional 3 cinemas with 29 screens and managed 2 cinemas with 9 screens.  In real estate during the period, we (i) owned and operated four Entertainment Themed Retail Centers (“ETRCs”) that we developed in Australia and New Zealand, (ii) owned the fee interests in four developed commercial properties in Manhattan and Chicago improved with live theaters comprising seven stages and ancillary retail and commercial space, (iii) owned the fee interests underlying one of our Manhattan cinemas, (iv) held for development an additional seven parcels aggregating approximately 129 acres located principally in urbanized areas of Australia and New Zealand, and (v) owned 50% of a 202-acre property, zoned for the development of up to 843 single-family residential units in Coachella, California.

Operating expense includes costs associated with the day-to-day operations of the cinemas and the management of rental properties, including our live theater assets.  Our year-to-year results of operations were impacted by the fluctuation in the value of the Australian and New Zealand dollars vis-à-vis the US dollar resulting in an increase in results of operations for our foreign operations for 2012 compared to 2011.

The tables below summarize the results of operations for each of our principal business segments for the three (“2012 Quarter”) and six (“2012 Six Months”) months ended June 30, 2012 and the three (“2011 Quarter”) and six (“2011 Six Months”) months ended June 30, 2012, respectively (dollars in thousands):

·  
Cinema revenue decreased for the 2012 Quarter by $4.2 million or 6.8% compared to the same period in 2011.  The 2012 Quarter decrease was primarily due to a decrease in U.S. and Australian box office attendance of 173,000 and a decrease in the average price per ticket of $0.27 and $0.42, respectively, related to the available film product in 2012 compared to the same period in 2011.  This was exacerbated by the temporary closure of our Townsville cinema in Australia due to the renovation of the cinema during the quarter.  This resulted in a decrease in box office revenue of $4.0 million and a decrease in concessions and other revenue of $724,000.    The decrease in U.S. revenue was partially offset by new revenue from our CalOaks cinema which was acquired in August 2011.  Our New Zealand admissions increased by 68,000 resulting in an increase in box office revenue of $227,000 and an increase in concessions and other revenue of $257,000 primarily as a result of the reopening of our Palms cinema in early January 2012.  Both the Australian and New Zealand results were affected by a decrease in the value of the Australian and New Zealand dollars compared to the U.S. dollar (see below).
 
·  
Operating expense decreased for the 2012 Quarter by $1.6 million or 3.1% compared to the same period in 2011.  This decrease followed the decreased revenues noted above associated with the overall decrease in box office admissions assisted by a decrease in the value of the Australian and New Zealand dollars compared to the U.S. dollar (see below).  Overall, our operating expense as a percent of gross revenue increased from 80.2% to 83.4% primarily relating to the decrease in admissions which increased our labor per admit costs and from our fixed property rent costs relative to the aforementioned decrease in revenue.
 
·  
Depreciation expense decreased for the 2012 Quarter by $267,000 or 8.9% compared to the same period in 2011 due to certain Australian cinema assets coming to the end of their depreciable lives in 2011.
 
·  
General and administrative costs increased for the 2012 Quarter by $113,000 or 16.9% compared to the same period in 2011 due to an increase in payroll and travel related costs for our U.S. and Australian cinema circuits.
 
·  
For our statement of operations, the Australian and New Zealand quarterly average exchange rates decreased by 4.9% and 1.1%, respectively, since the 2011 Quarter, which had an impact on the individual components of our income statement.
 
·  
Because of the above, and driven by the decreased revenue, the cinema exhibition segment income decreased for the 2012 Quarter by $2.5 million or 29.3% compared to the same period in 2011.

Cinema revenue increased for the 2012 Six Months by $3.7 million or 3.3% compared to the same period in 2011.  The 2012 Six Months increase was primarily due to an increase in U.S. and New Zealand box office attendance of 442,000 and 62,000, respectively.  The uplift in box office admissions in the U.S. was primarily from the improved film product noted in the first quarter of 2012 and from the acquisition of our CalOaks cinema in August 2011 while the increase in New Zealand was primarily as a result of the reopening of our Palms cinema in early January 2012.  These changes resulted in an increase in box office revenue of $3.3 million and an increase in concessions and other revenue of $2.4 million.  Our New Zealand revenue was also impacted by an increase in the value of the New Zealand dollar compared to the U.S. dollar (see below) for the 2012 Six Months compared to the same period in 2011.  Our Australian cinema revenue decreased by $2.0 million primarily relating to a 64,000 decrease in admissions coupled with a $0.44 decrease in the average ticket price per admission.  This was exacerbated by the temporary closure of our Townsville cinema in Australia due to the renovation of the cinema during the quarter.  As noted below, there was only a nominal change in the Australian dollar compared to the U.S. dollar for the comparable periods.
 
 
·  
Operating expense increased for the 2012 Six Months by $3.5 million or 3.8% compared to the same period in 2011.  This increase followed the increased revenues noted above primarily relating to the improved film product in the first quarter of 2012 compared to 2011.  The operating expense was also impacted by the increase in the value of the New Zealand dollar compared to the U.S. dollar (see below).  Overall, our operating expense as a percent of gross revenue remained relatively stable at 83.7% compared to 83.3%.
 
·  
Depreciation expense decreased for the 2012 Six Months by $341,000 or 5.8% compared to the same period in 2011 due to certain Australian cinema assets coming to the end of their depreciable lives in 2011.
 
·  
General and administrative costs increased for the 2012 Six Months by $204,000 or 15.9% compared to the same period in 2011 due to an increase in payroll and travel related costs for our U.S. and Australian cinema circuits.
 
·  
For our statement of operations, the Australian average exchange rates decreased by 0.1% the 2012 Six Months while the New Zealand average exchange rates increased 3.4% for the 2012 Six Months compared to the 2011 Six Months, which had an impact on the individual components of our income statement.
 
·  
Because of the above, and driven by the increased revenue, the cinema exhibition segment income increased for the 2012 Six Months by $297,000 or 2.6% compared to the same period in 2011.

·  
Real estate revenue increased for the 2012 Quarter by $434,000 or 6.6% compared to the same period in 2011 primarily related to an increase in our live theater revenue of $279,000 coupled with higher rents and occupancy associated with our Australian and New Zealand retail properties in 2012 compared to the same period in 2011.  Both the Australian and New Zealand results were also affected by a decrease in the value of the Australian and New Zealand dollars compared to the U.S. dollar (see below).
 
·  
Operating expense for the real estate segment increased for the 2012 Quarter by $51,000 or 2.0% compared to the same period in 2011.  This increase resulted from higher property tax costs for our U.S. operating properties and from legal costs incurred in 2012 associated with our old railroad properties; offset in part by, a decrease in the value of the Australian and New Zealand dollars compared to the U.S. dollar (see below).
 
·  
Depreciation expense decreased for the 2012 Quarter by $108,000 or 8.4% compared to the same period in 2011 primarily due to certain Australian and New Zealand assets coming to the end of their depreciable lives in 2011.

·  
Real estate revenue increased for the 2012 Quarter by $1.1 million or 8.7% compared to the same period in 2011.  Our Australian and New Zealand real estate revenue increased primarily due to higher rents in 2012 compared to the same period in 2011 coupled with a year over year increase in the value of the New Zealand dollar compared to the U.S. dollar (see below).  Also, our U.S. real estate revenue increased due to improved results from our live theater operations.
 
·  
Operating expense for the real estate segment increased for the 2012 Quarter by $415,000 or 8.3% compared to the same period in 2011.  This increase resulted from higher repair, maintenance, and insurance costs for our operating properties and from legal costs incurred in 2012 associated with our old railroad properties.
 
·  
Depreciation expense decreased for the 2012 Quarter by $102,000 or 4.1% compared to the same period in 2011 primarily due to certain Australian and New Zealand assets coming to the end of their depreciable lives in 2011.
 
·  
General and administrative costs decreased for the 2012 Quarter by $69,000 or 17.5% compared to the same period in 2011 due to a decrease in costs associated with certain development properties.
 
·  
For our statement of operations, the Australian average exchange rates decreased by 0.1% the 2012 Six Months while the New Zealand average exchange rates increased 3.4% for the 2012 Six Months compared to the 2011 Six Months, which had an impact on the individual components of our income statement.
 
·  
As a result of the above, real estate segment income increased for the 2012 Quarter by $887,000 or 17.3%  compared to the same period in 2011.
 
 
Corporate

Quarterly Results

General and administrative expense includes expenses that are not directly attributable to other operating segments.  General and administrative expense decreased by $482,000 in the 2012 Quarter compared to the 2011 Quarter primarily related to the one-time additional labor costs incurred during 2011, associated with the transfer of our accounting functions from the U.S. and Australia to New Zealand during 2011 not being repeated in 2012.

Net interest expense increased by $277,000 for the 2012 Quarter compared to the 2011 Quarter.  The increase in interest expense during the 2012 Quarter was primarily due to larger increase in fair value of our interest rate swaps in 2012 than that noted for the same period in 2011 offset in part by a decrease in interest rates specifically from our Trust Preferred Securities.  Effective May 1, 2012, the interest rate changed from a fixed rate of 9.22%, which was in effect for the past five years, to a variable rate of 3 month LIBOR plus 4.00%, which will reset each quarter through the end of the loan.

For the 2012 Quarter, our income tax expense was $259,000 compared to an income tax benefit of $13.8 million.  The year over year change was primarily due to a one-time tax provision adjustment of $14.4 million in 2011 caused by a reduction in the valuation allowance related to our Australian operations.

           For the 2012 Quarter, we recorded an increase in our equity earnings of unconsolidated joint ventures and entities of $130,000 primarily due to improved earnings from our Mt. Gravatt and Rialto Cinemas investments.

For the 2011 Quarter, we recorded an gain on the sale for our Elsternwick Cinema of $1.7 million that is included in our income from discontinued operations.

Six Months Results

Depreciation expense increased by $226,000 due to new IT systems, leasehold assets, and office assets implemented as a result of our new Wellington and Los Angeles offices.

General and administrative expense includes expenses that are not directly attributable to other operating segments.  General and administrative expense decreased by $379,000 in the 2012 Six Months compared to the 2011 Six Months due to the same reasons noted above for the quarterly results.

Net interest expense increased by $106,000 for the 2012 Six Months compared to the 2011 Six Months.  The increase in interest expense during the 2012 Six Months was primarily due to an increase in interest rates for our New Zealand debt in 2012 compared the same period in 2011 offset in part by a decrease in interest rates specifically from our Trust Preferred Securities.  Effective May 1, 2012, the interest rate changed from a fixed rate of 9.22%, which was in effect for the past five years, to a variable rate of 3 month LIBOR plus 4.00%, which will reset each quarter through the end of the loan.

 
The 2012 Six Months income tax expense was $1.9 million compare to an income tax benefit of $13.1 million for the 2011 Six Months.  The year over year change primarily related to a one-time tax provision adjustment of $14.4 million discussed for the 2012 Quarter.
 
For the 2012 Six Months, we recorded an increase in our equity earnings of unconsolidated joint ventures and entities of $179,000 primarily due to improved earnings from our Mt. Gravatt and Rialto Cinemas investments.

For the 2011 Six Months, we recorded an gain on the sale for our Elsternwick Cinema of $1.7 million that is included in our income from discontinued operations.


Net Income (Loss) Attributable to Reading International, Inc. Common Shareholders

We recorded a net income attributable to Reading International, Inc. common shareholders of $239,000 for the 2012 Quarter compared to a net income of $17.4 million for the 2011 Quarter and a net loss of $3,000 for the 2012 Six Months compared to a net income of $15.0 million for the 2011Six Months.  As described above, the change from a net income to a net loss from 2012 to 2011 was primarily due to a one-time tax provision adjustment of $14.4 million recorded in 2011.

 
Acquisition
 
 
Coachella, California Land Acquisition
 
 
On January 10, 2012, Shadow View Land and Farming, LLC, a limited liability company owned by our Company, acquired a 202-acre property, zoned for the development of up to 843 single-family residential units, located in the City of Coachella, California.  The property was acquired at a foreclosure auction for $5.5 million.  The property was acquired as a long-term investment in developable land. Half of the funds used to acquire the land were provided by Mr. James J. Cotter, our Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and controlling shareholder.  Upon the approval of our Conflicts Committee, these funds were converted on January 18, 2012 into a 50% interest.  The limited liability company is administratively managed by our Company.
 

Business Plan, Capital Resources, and Liquidity

Business Plan

Our cinema exhibition business plan is to continue to identify, develop, and acquire cinema properties, where reasonably available, that allow us to leverage our cinema expertise and technology over a larger operating base.  Our real estate business plan is to continue development of our existing land assets to be sensitive to opportunities to convert our entertainment assets to higher and better uses, or, when appropriate, dispose of such assets.  Because we believe that current economic conditions are not conducive to obtaining the pre-construction leasing commitments necessary to justify commencement of construction, we currently focus our development efforts on improving and enhancing land entitlements and negotiating with end users for build to suit projects.  In addition, we review opportunities to monetize our assets where such action leads to a financially acceptable outcome.  We will also continue to investigate potential synergistic acquisitions that may not readily fall into either of our two currently identified segments. For our U.S. cinema circuit, we anticipate completing negotiations for a leasing arrangement to fund our $15.0 million digital projection conversion by the end of August 2012 and to begin the six to twelve month implementation process at that time.  Similarly, for our Australia and New Zealand circuits, we anticipate that we will either negotiate a similar leasing arrangement to that of the U.S. or purchase the equipment for approximately $8.0 million and $2.0 million, respectively, with our cash on hand and begin the implementation process during the fourth quarter of 2012.

We base estimated interest on long-term debt on the anticipated loan balances for future periods calculated against current fixed and variable interest rates.

We adopted FASB ASC 740-10-25, Income Taxes – Uncertain Tax Positions on January 1, 2007.  As of adoption, the total amount of gross unrecognized tax benefits for uncertain tax positions was $12.5 million decreasing to $2.1 million as of June 30, 2012 mainly as a result of the settlement on January 6, 2011 of the Tax Audit/Litigation matter.

Unconsolidated Debt

Total debt of unconsolidated joint ventures and entities was $1.1 million and $663,000 as of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011.  Our share of unconsolidated debt, based on our ownership percentage, was $356,000 and $221,000 as of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011.  This debt is guaranteed by one of our subsidiaries to the extent of our ownership percentage.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

There are no off-balance sheet transactions, arrangements or obligations (including contingent obligations) that have, or are reasonably likely to have, a current or future material effect on our financial condition, changes in the financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures, or capital resources.

Currency Risk

We are subject to currency risk because we conduct a significant portion of our business in Australia and New Zealand.  Set forth below is a chart indicating the various exchange rates at certain points in time for the Australian and New Zealand Dollar vis-à-vis the US Dollar over the past 20 years.
 
 

 
We do not engage in currency hedging activities.  Rather, to the extent possible, we operate our Australian and New Zealand operations on a self-funding basis.  Our policy in Australia and New Zealand is to match revenues and expenses, whenever possible, in local currencies.  As a result, we have procured in local currencies the majority of our expenses in Australia and New Zealand.  Due to the developing nature of our operations in Australia and New Zealand and our historic practice of funding our asset growth through local borrowings, our revenues are not yet significantly greater than our operating expenses and interest charges in these countries.  As we continue to progress with our acquisition and development activities in Australia and New Zealand, the effect of variations in currency values will likely increase.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our ability to generate sufficient cash flows from operating activities in order to meet our obligations and commitments drives our liquidity position.  This is further affected by our ability to obtain adequate, reasonable financing and/or to convert non-performing or non-strategic assets into cash.

Currently, our liquidity needs arise primarily from:
 
·  
capital expenditure needs for our expanding digital and 3D implementations (see below);
 
·  
working capital requirements; and
 
·  
debt servicing requirements.

For our U.S. cinema circuit, we anticipate completing negotiations for a leasing arrangement to fund our $15.0 million digital projection conversion by the end of August 2012 and to begin the six to twelve month implementation process at that time.  Similarly, for our Australia and New Zealand circuits, we anticipate that we will either negotiate a similar leasing arrangement to that of the U.S. or purchase the equipment for approximately $8.0 million and $2.0 million, respectively, with our cash on hand and begin the implementation process during the fourth quarter of 2012.
 
 
Short-Term and Long-Term Debt

Cinemas 1, 2, 3 Term Loan

On June 28, 2012, Sutton Hill Properties LLC (“SHP”), one of our consolidated subsidiaries, paid off its Eurohypo AG, New York Branch loan with a new $15.0 million term loan (the “Sovereign Bank Loan”) from Sovereign Bank, N.A.  The terms of the Sovereign Bank Loan require interest only payments at LIBOR plus a 5.00% margin to be calculated and paid monthly.  The Sovereign Bank Loan has a one-year term ending on June 27, 2013, with a one year extension option to June 26, 2014 subject to an extension fee equal to 1% of the ending principal balance and a compliance requirement with certain special covenants.  See Note 11 – Notes Payable.

Renewed New Zealand Credit Facility

On February 8, 2012, we received an approved amendment from Westpac renewing our existing $36.9 million (NZ$45.0 million) New Zealand credit facility with a 3-year credit facility.  The renewed facility calls for a decrease in the overall facility by $4.1 million (NZ$5.0 million) to $32.8 million (NZ$40.0 million) and an increase in the facility margin of 0.55% to 2.0%.  No other significant changes to the facility were made.

Liquidity Requirements
 
Liberty Theatre Term Loans
 
As our Liberty Theater Term Loans are due to mature on April 1, 2013, the June 30, 2012 outstanding balance of this debt of $6.5 million is classified as current on our balance sheet.  We intend to refinance the property’s debt with similar financing.

Tax Settlement Liability

As indicated in our 2011 Annual Report, in accordance with the agreement between the U.S. Internal Revenue Service and our subsidiary, Craig Corporation, we are obligated to pay $290,000 per month, $3.5 million per year, in settlement for our tax liability for tax year ending June 30, 1997.

For the abovementioned liabilities, we believe that we have sufficient borrowing capacity under our various credit facilities, together with our $30.7 million of cash and time deposits, to meet our anticipated short-term working capital requirements for the next twelve months.

Operating Activities

Cash provided by operations was $8.2 million in the 2012 Six Months compared to $10.1 million in the 2011 Six Months.  The year-to-year decrease in cash provided by operations of $1.9 million was due primarily to a $1.0 million increase in operational cash flows offset by a $2.9 million change in operating assets and liabilities.
 
 
Investing Activities

Cash used in investing activities for the 2012 Six Months was $13.5 million compared to $387,000 of cash provided by investing activities for the 2011 Six Months, a change of $13.9 million.  The $13.5 million of cash used in investing activities for the 2012 Six Months was primarily related to:
 
·  
$3.2 million in property enhancements to our existing properties;
 
·  
$8.0 million to purchase time deposits;
 
·  
$1.8 million to purchase a note receivable; and
 
·  
$5.5 million for the purchase of the Coachella land acquisition;
 
offset by
 
·  
$33,000 of a change in restricted cash;
 
·  
$1.9 million of proceeds from the sale of our Taringa properties; and
 
·  
$3.0 million of proceeds from the sale of marketable securities.

The $387,000 of cash provided by investing activities for the 2011 Six Months was primarily related to:
 
·  
$3.2 million in property enhancements to our existing properties;
 
·  
$5.0 million for the purchase of notes receivable including $2.8 million for the purchase of mortgage notes receivable and $2.3 million for the note receivable securitized by certain cinema leases; and
 
·  
$136,000 of a change in restricted cash;
 
offset by
 
·  
$123,000 of proceeds from the sale of marketable securities;
 
·  
$6.8 million of proceeds from the pay off of a long-term other receivable; and
 
·  
$1.9 million of net proceeds from the sale of our 66.7% share of the 5-screen Elsternwick Classic cinema located in Melbourne, Australia.

Financing Activities

Cash used in financing activities for the 2012 Six Months was $3.4 million compared to $8.5 million for the same period in 2011 resulting in a change of $5.0 million.  The $3.4 million in cash used in financing activities during the 2012 Six Months was primarily related to:
 
·  
$15.9 million of new borrowing including $14.6 million of loan proceeds from our new Cinemas 1, 2, 3 loan net of $445,000 of capitalized borrowing costs and $945,000 of borrowing from our Bank of America line of credit;
 
·  
$3.3 million in noncontrolling interests’ contributions; and
 
·  
$308,000 of proceeds from the exercise of employee stock options;
 
 
offset by
 
·  
$22.5 million of loan repayments including $15.0 million to pay off our Eurohypo Cinemas 1, 2, 3 loan, $3.3 million in payments on our GE Capital Loan and $3.6 million in payments on our NAB term debt.

The $8.5 million in cash used in financing activities during the 2011 Six Months was primarily related to:
 
·  
$104.6 million of new borrowing including $104.2 million of loan proceeds from our new NAB loan net of $684,000 of capitalized borrowing costs and $1.1 million of borrowing from our New Zealand credit facility;
 
offset by
 
·  
$112.4 million of loan repayments including the $105.8 million payoff of our Australian BOSI loan,  $4.3 million in loan repayment on our GE Capital Loan, and $2.0 million pay down of our Nationwide Notes;
 
·  
$111,000 of repurchase of Class A Nonvoting Common Stock; and
 
·  
$554,000 in noncontrolling interests’ distributions.

Critical Accounting Policies

The SEC defines critical accounting policies as those that are, in management’s view, most important to the portrayal of the company’s financial condition and results of operations and the most demanding in their calls on judgment.  Although accounting for our core business of cinema and live theater exhibition with a real estate focus is relatively straightforward, we believe our most critical accounting policies relate to:
 
·  
impairment of long-lived assets, including goodwill and intangible assets;
 
·  
tax valuation allowance and obligations; and
 
·  
legal and environmental obligations.

We discuss these critical accounting policies in our 2011 Annual Report and advise you to refer to that discussion.

Financial Risk Management

Our internally developed risk management procedure, seeks to minimize the potentially negative effects of changes in currency exchange rates and interest rates on the results of operations.  Our primary exposure to fluctuations in the financial markets is currently due to changes in currency exchange rates between U.S and Australia and New Zealand, and interest rates.

As our operational focus continues to shift to Australia and New Zealand, unrealized foreign currency translation gains and losses could materially affect our financial position.  We currently manage our currency exposure by creating, whenever possible, natural hedges in Australia and New Zealand.  This involves local country sourcing of goods and services as well as borrowing in local currencies.

Our exposure to interest rate risk arises out of our long-term debt obligations.  Consistent with our internally developed guidelines, we seek to reduce the negative effects of changes in interest rates by changing the character of the interest rate on our long-term debt, converting a variable rate into a fixed rate.  Our internal procedures allow us to enter into derivative contracts on certain borrowing transactions to achieve this goal.  Our Australian credit facilities provide for floating interest rates but require that not less than a certain percentage of the loans be swapped into fixed rate obligations using derivative contracts.

 
-42-

 
In accordance with FASB ASC 815-10-35, Subsequent Valuation of Derivative Instruments and Hedging Instruments (“FASB ASC 815-10-35”), we marked our interest rate swap instruments to market on the consolidated balance sheet resulting in an increase in interest expense of $1.8 million and $1.5 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively, and an increase of  $1.5 million and $1.7 million in interest expense during the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively.  At June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, we recorded the fair market value of our interest rate swaps of $6.2 million and $4.7 million, respectively, as other long-term liabilities.  In accordance with FASB ASC 815-10-35, we have not designated any of our current interest rate swap positions as financial reporting hedges.

Inflation

We continually monitor inflation and the effects of changing prices.  Inflation increases the cost of goods and services used.  Competitive conditions in many of our markets restrict our ability to recover fully the higher costs of acquired goods and services through price increases.  We attempt to mitigate the impact of inflation by implementing continuous process improvement solutions to enhance productivity and efficiency and, as a result, lower costs and operating expenses.  In our opinion, we have managed the effects of inflation appropriately, and, as a result, it has not had a material impact on our operations and the resulting financial position or liquidity.

Litigation

We are currently, and are from time to time, involved with claims and lawsuits arising in the ordinary course of our business.  Some examples of the types of claims are:
 
·  
contractual obligations;
 
·  
insurance claims;
 
·  
IRS claims;
 
·  
employment matters;
 
·  
environmental matters; and
 
·  
anti-trust issues.

Where we are the plaintiffs, we expense all legal fees on an on-going basis and make no provision for any potential settlement amounts until received.  In Australia, the prevailing party is entitled to recover its attorneys’ fees, which typically work out to be approximately 60% of the amounts actually spent where first class legal counsel is engaged at customary rates.  Where we are a plaintiff, we have likewise made no provision for the liability for the defendant’s attorneys' fees in the event we are determined not to be the prevailing party.

Where we are the defendants, we accrue for probable damages, which insurance may not cover, as they become known and can be reasonably estimated.  In our opinion, any claims and litigation in which we are currently involved are not reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial position, or liquidity.  However, we do not give any assurance as to the ultimate outcome of such claims and litigation.  The resolution of such claims and litigation could be material to our operating results for any particular period, depending on the level of income for such period.  There have been no material changes to our litigation exposure since our 2011 Annual Report.
 

 
Forward-Looking Statements

Our statements in this interim quarterly report contain a variety of forward-looking statements as defined by the Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.  Forward-looking statements reflect only our expectations regarding future events and operating performance and necessarily speak only as of the date the information was prepared.  No guarantees can be given that our expectation will in fact be realized, in whole or in part.  You can recognize these statements by our use of words such as, by way of example, “may,” “will,” “expect,” “believe,” and “anticipate” or other similar terminology.

These forward-looking statements reflect our expectation after having considered a variety of risks and uncertainties.  However, they are necessarily the product of internal discussion and do not necessarily completely reflect the views of individual members of our Board of Directors or of our management team.  Individual Board members and individual members of our management team may have different views as to the risks and uncertainties involved, and may have different views as to future events or our operating performance.

Among the factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in or underlying our forward-looking statements are the following:
 
·  
With respect to our cinema operations:
 
o  
The number and attractiveness to movie goers of the films released in future periods;
 
o  
The amount of money spent by film distributors to promote their motion pictures;
 
o  
The licensing fees and terms required by film distributors from motion picture exhibitors in order to exhibit their films;
 
o  
The continued willingness of moviegoers to spend money on our concession items;
 
o  
The comparative attractiveness of motion pictures as a source of entertainment and willingness and/or ability of consumers (i) to spend their dollars on entertainment and (ii) to spend their entertainment dollars on movies in an outside the home environment;
 
o  
The extent to which we encounter competition from other cinema exhibitors, from other sources of outside of the home entertainment, and from inside the home entertainment options, such as “home theaters” and competitive film product distribution technology such as, by way of example, cable, satellite broadcast, DVD and VHS rentals and sales, and so called “movies on demand”;
 
o  
the extent to which we can digitalize our cinema circuit compared to our competitors; and
 
o  
The extent to and the efficiency with which, we are able to integrate acquisitions of cinema circuits with our existing operations.
 
·  
With respect to our real estate development and operation activities:
 
o  
The rental rates and capitalization rates applicable to the markets in which we operate and the quality of properties that we own;
 
o  
The extent to which we can obtain on a timely basis the various land use approvals and entitlements needed to develop our properties;
 
o  
The risks and uncertainties associated with real estate development;
 
o  
The availability and cost of labor and materials;
 
o  
Competition for development sites and tenants;
 
o  
Environmental remediation issues; and
 
o  
The extent to which our cinemas can continue to serve as an anchor tenant who will, in turn, be influenced by the same factors as will influence generally the results of our cinema operations.
 
 
·  
With respect to our operations generally as an international company involved in both the development and operation of cinemas and the development and operation of real estate; and previously engaged for many years in the railroad business in the United States:
 
o  
Our ongoing access to borrowed funds and capital and the interest that must be paid on that debt and the returns that must be paid on such capital;
 
o  
The relative values of the currency used in the countries in which we operate;
 
o  
Changes in government regulation;
 
o  
Our labor relations and costs of labor (including future government requirements with respect to pension liabilities, disability insurance and health coverage, and vacations and leave);
 
o  
Our exposure from time to time to legal claims and to uninsurable risks such as those related to our historic railroad operations, including potential environmental claims and health related claims relating to alleged exposure to asbestos or other substances now or in the future, recognized as being possible causes of cancer or other health related problems;
 
o  
Changes in future effective tax rates and the results of currently ongoing and future potential audits by taxing authorities having jurisdiction over our various companies; and
 
o  
Changes in applicable accounting policies and practices.

The above list is not necessarily exhaustive, as business is by definition unpredictable and risky, and subject to influence by numerous factors outside of our control such as changes in government regulation or policy, competition, interest rates, supply, technological innovation, changes in consumer taste and fancy, weather, and the extent to which consumers in our markets have the economic wherewithal to spend money on beyond-the-home entertainment.

Given the variety and unpredictability of the factors that will ultimately influence our businesses and our results of operation, it naturally follows that no guarantees can be given that any of our forward-looking statements will ultimately prove to be correct.  Actual results will undoubtedly vary and there is no guarantee as to how our securities will perform either when considered in isolation or when compared to other securities or investment opportunities.

Finally, we undertake no obligation to update publicly or to revise any of our forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as may be required under applicable law.  Accordingly, you should always note the date to which our forward-looking statements speak.

Additionally, certain of the presentations included in this interim quarterly report may contain “non-GAAP financial measures.”  In such case, a reconciliation of this information to our GAAP financial statements will be made available in connection with such statements.

 
Item 3 – Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk

The SEC requires that registrants include information about potential effects of changes in currency exchange and interest rates in their filings.  Several alternatives, all with some limitations, have been offered.  We base the following discussion on a sensitivity analysis, which models the effects of fluctuations in currency exchange rates and interest rates.  This analysis is constrained by several factors, including the following:
 
·  
It is based on a single point in time; and
 
·  
It does not include the effects of other complex market reactions that would arise from the changes modeled.

Although the results of such an analysis may be useful as a benchmark, they should not be viewed as forecasts.

At June 30, 2012, approximately 55%  and 17% of our assets were invested in assets denominated in Australian dollars (Reading Australia) and New Zealand dollars (Reading New Zealand), respectively, including approximately $14.2 million in cash and cash equivalents.  At December 31, 2011, approximately 57% and 16% of our assets were invested in assets denominated in Australian dollars (Reading Australia) and New Zealand dollars (Reading New Zealand) including approximately $19.8 million in cash and cash equivalents.

Our policy in Australia and New Zealand is to match revenues and expenses, whenever possible, in local currencies.  As a result, we have procured in local currencies a majority of our expenses in Australia and New Zealand.  Due to the developing nature of our operations in Australia and New Zealand, our revenue is not yet significantly greater than our operating and interest expenses.  Despite this natural hedge, recent movements in foreign currencies have had an effect on our current earnings.  Although foreign currency has had a nominal effect on our current earnings, the effect of the translation adjustment on our assets and liabilities noted in our other comprehensive income was an increase of $3.2 million and $789,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively.  As we continue to progress our acquisition and development activities in Australia and New Zealand, we cannot assure you that the foreign currency effect on our earnings will be negligible in the future.

Historically, our policy has been to borrow in local currencies to finance the development and construction of our ETRCs in Australia and New Zealand whenever possible.  As a result, the borrowings in local currencies have provided somewhat of a natural hedge against the foreign currency exchange exposure.  Even so, and as a result of our issuance of fully subordinated notes (TPS) in 2007, and their subsequent partial repayment, approximately 57% and 46% of our Australian and New Zealand assets, respectively, remain subject to such exposure unless we elect to hedge our foreign currency exchange between the US and Australian and New Zealand dollars.  If the foreign currency rates were to fluctuate by 10% the resulting change in Australian and New Zealand assets would be $13.3 million and $3.3 million, respectively, and the change in our quarterly net income (loss) would be $81,000 and $104,000, respectively.  Presently, we have no plan to hedge such exposure.

We record unrealized foreign currency translation gains or losses that could materially affect our financial position.  As of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, we have recorded a cumulative unrealized foreign currency translation gain of approximately $60.9 million and $60.1 million, respectively.
 
 
Historically, we maintain most of our cash and cash equivalent balances in short-term money market instruments with original maturities of three months or less.  Due to the short-term nature of such investments, a change of 1% in short-term interest rates would not have a material effect on our financial condition.

While we have typically used fixed rate financing (secured by first mortgages) in the U.S., fixed rate financing is typically not available to corporate borrowers in Australia and New Zealand.  The majority of our Australian and New Zealand bank loans have variable rates.  The Australian facility provides for floating interest rates, but requires that not less than a certain percentage of the loan be swapped into fixed rate obligations (see Financial Risk Management above).  If we consider the interest rate swaps, a 1% increase or decrease in short-term interest rates would have resulted in approximately $56,000 increase or decrease in our 2012 Quarter’s Australian and New Zealand interest expense.

 
Item 4 – Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Company’s Exchange Act reports, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure.  In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and our management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such, term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).  Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report.


Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

No change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2012 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Section 2.3 Indemnity.  Borrower agrees to indemnify Lender and to hold it harmless from any cost, loss or expenses which Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of (a) Borrower making a payment or prepayment of principal on the Loan on a day which is not a Payment Date with respect thereto, (b) default by Borrower in making any prepayment after Borrower has given a notice of prepayment, and (c) any acceleration of the maturity of the Loan by Lender in accordance with the terms of this Note, including, but not limited to, any such reasonable costs, loss or expense arising in liquidating the Loan and from interest or fees payable by Lender to lenders of funds obtained by it in order to maintain the Loan hereunder.
 
Section 2.4 Increased Cost and Reduced Return.
 
(a) If, on or after the date hereof, the adoption of any applicable law, rule or regulation, or any change in any applicable law, rule or regulation, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by Lender (or its LIBOR Lending Office) with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency shall impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve (including, without limitation, any such requirement imposed by the Board (but excluding with respect to any such requirement reflected in the then effective LIBOR Rate)), special deposit, insurance assessment or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, Lender (or its LIBOR Lending Office) or shall impose on Lender (or its LIBOR Lending Office) or on the London interbank market any other condition affecting any loan bearing interest at the LIBOR Rate, and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to Lender (or its LIBOR Lending Office) of maintaining the Loan at the LIBOR Rate, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by Lender (or its LIBOR Lending Office) under this Note with respect thereto, by an amount deemed by Lender in its reasonable judgment to be material, then, within thirty (30) days after demand by Lender, Borrower shall pay to Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate Lender for such increased cost or reduction.
 
(b) If Lender shall have determined that, after the date hereof, the adoption of any Capital Adequacy Rule has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on capital of Lender (or its Parent) as a consequence of Lender's obligations hereunder to a level below that which Lender (or its Parent) could have achieved but for such adoption, change, request or directive (taking into consideration its policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by Lender to be material, then from time to time, within fifteen (15) days after demand by Lender, Borrower shall pay to Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate Lender (or its Parent) for such reduction.
 
 
-9-

 
 
(c) Lender will promptly notify Borrower of any event of which it has knowledge, occurring after the date hereof, which will entitle the Lender to compensation pursuant to this Section 2.4 and will designate a different LIBOR Lending Office if such designation will avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of such compensation and will not, in the judgment of Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to Lender.  A certificate of Lender claiming compensation under either Section 2.4(a) or 2.4(b) and setting forth the additional amount or amounts to be paid to it hereunder shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error; provided that any certificate delivered by Lender pursuant to this Section 2.4(c) shall (i) in the case of a certificate in respect of amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.4(a), set forth in reasonable detail the basis for and the calculation of such amounts, and (ii) in the case of a certificate in respect of amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.4(b), (A) set forth at least the same amount of detail in respect of the calculation of such amount as Lender provides in similar circumstances to other similarly situated borrowers from Lender, and (B) include a statement by Lender that it has allocated to the Loan a proportionately equal amount of any reduction of the rate of return on Lender’s capital due to a Capital Adequacy Rule as it has allocated to each of its other outstanding loans that are effected similarly by such Capital Adequacy Rule.
 
Section 2.5 Deposits Unavailable.  In the event, and on each occasion, that (a) Lender shall have determined that dollar deposits in the principal amounts of the Loan are not generally available to Lender in the London interbank market, for such periods and amounts then outstanding hereunder or that reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the LIBOR Rate, or (b) Lender determines that the rate at which such dollar deposits are being offered will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to Lender of maintaining the Loan at the LIBOR Rate during such Interest Accrual Period, Lender shall, as soon as practicable thereafter, give written notice of such determination to Borrower.  In the event of such determination, until the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, the Loan shall bear interest at the Base Rate.  After an Event of Default, interest shall accrue on the outstanding principal balance of this Note at a rate per annum equal to the Default Rate.
 
Section 2.6 Illegality.  If on or after the date of this Note, the adoption of any applicable law, rule or regulation, or any change in any applicable law, rule or regulation, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by Lender (or its LIBOR Lending Office) with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency shall make it unlawful or impossible for Lender (or its LIBOR Lending Office) to maintain the Loan to Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.6, Lender shall designate a different LIBOR Lending Office if such designation will avoid the need for giving such notice and will not, in the judgment of Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to Lender.  If Lender shall determine that it may not lawfully continue to maintain the Loan at the LIBOR Rate to maturity and shall so specify in such notice, the Loan shall bear interest at the Base Rate.
 
 
-10-

 
 
 3.   SECURITY
 
This Note is secured by, and Lender is entitled to the benefits of, the Security Instrument, the Assignment, the Environmental Agreement and the other Loan Documents (hereinafter defined).  The term “Security Instrument” means the Amended and Restated Mortgage, Assignment of Leases and Rents, Security Agreement and Fixture Filing dated the date hereof by and between Borrower and Lender covering the estate of Borrower in certain premises as more particularly described therein (which premises, together with all properties, rights, titles, estates and interests now or hereafter securing the Debt and/or other obligations of Borrower under the Loan Documents, are collectively referred to herein as the “Property”), together with all extensions, renewals, modifications, substitutions and amendments thereof.  The term “Assignment” means the Assignment of Leases and Rents of even date herewith executed by Borrower in favor of Lender, together with all extensions, renewals, modifications, substitutions and amendments thereof.  The term “Environmental Agreement” means the Environmental Indemnity Agreement of even date herewith executed by Borrower and Guarantor in favor of Lender, together with all extensions, renewals, modifications, substitutions and amendments thereof. The term “Loan Documents” refers collectively to this Note, the Security Instrument, the Assignment, the Environmental Agreement, and any and all other documents executed in connection with this Note or now or hereafter executed by Borrower and/or others and by or in favor of Lender, which wholly or partially secure or guarantee payment of this Note or pertains to indebtedness evidenced by this Note, together with all extensions, renewals, modifications, substitutions and amendments thereof.
 
 4.   LATE FEE
 
If any installment payable under this Note (including the final installment due on the Maturity Date) is not received by Lender on or before the tenth (10th) calendar day after the day on which the same is due, Borrower shall pay to Lender upon demand an amount equal to the lesser of (a) five percent (5%) of such unpaid sum or (b) the maximum amount permitted by applicable law to defray the expenses incurred by Lender in handling and processing such delinquent payment and to compensate Lender for the loss of the use of such delinquent payment, and such amount shall be secured by the Loan Documents.
 
 5.   DEFAULT AND ACCELERATION
 
So long as an Event of Default exists, Lender may, at its option, without notice or demand to Borrower, declare the Debt immediately due and payable.  All remedies hereunder, under the Loan Documents and at law or in equity shall be cumulative.  In the event that it should become necessary to employ counsel to collect the Debt or to protect or foreclose the security for the Debt or to defend against any claims asserted by Borrower arising from or related to the Loan Documents, Borrower also agrees to pay to Lender on demand all costs of collection or defense incurred by Lender, including reasonable attorneys' fees for the services of counsel whether or not suit be brought.
 
 6.   DEFAULT INTEREST
 
Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default Borrower shall pay interest on the entire unpaid principal sum and any other amounts due under the Loan Documents at the rate equal to the Default Rate.  The Default Rate shall be computed from the occurrence of the Event of Default until the actual receipt and collection of a sum of money determined by Lender to be sufficient to cure the Event of Default.  Amounts of interest accrued at the Default Rate shall constitute a portion of the Debt, and shall be deemed secured by the Loan Documents.  This clause, however, shall not be construed as an agreement or privilege to extend the date of the payment of the Debt, nor as a waiver of any other right or remedy accruing to Lender by reason of the occurrence of any Event of Default.
 
 
-11-

 
 
 7.   PREPAYMENT
 
(a) This Note may from time to time be prepaid, (i) in whole but not in part on or before the sixth (6) month anniversary of the date of this Note, and (ii) in whole or in part after the sixth (6) month anniversary of the date of this Note.  With respect to any such prepayments, the principal balance of this Note may be prepaid in the manner provided in this Section 7 on any Business Day upon not less than thirty (30) days nor more than ninety (90) days prior written notice to Lender specifying the Business Day on which prepayment is to be made (the “Prepayment Date”), provided that such prepayment shall be accompanied by payment of interest accrued through the Prepayment Date on which such prepayment is made, together with all other sums then due under this Note and the other Loan Documents including, but not limited to, under Section 2.3 or this Section 7.  If any such notice of prepayment is given, the principal balance of this Note stated therein or required herein to be prepaid and the other sums required to be paid under this paragraph shall be due and payable on the Prepayment Date specified therein.  Prepayments of principal may only be made on a Business Day.  Any prepayment made at any time on or before the sixth (6) month anniversary of this Note shall be accompanied by a payment of interest at the Interest Rate through the last calendar day of the month in which the six (6) month anniversary of this Note occurs.
 
(b) Partial prepayments of principal, whether as a result of prepayment as set forth in this Section 7 or resulting from the application of casualty or condemnation proceeds to the Debt, shall not change the amounts of subsequent monthly installments of principal (if any are required hereunder) nor change the dates on which such installments are due, unless Lender shall otherwise agree in writing, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.
 
 8.   SAVINGS CLAUSE
 
This Note is subject to the express condition that at no time shall Borrower be obligated or required to pay interest on the principal balance due hereunder at a rate which could subject Lender to either civil or criminal liability as a result of being in excess of the maximum interest rate which Borrower is permitted by applicable law to contract or agree to pay.  If by the terms of this Note, Borrower is at any time required or obligated to pay interest on the principal balance due hereunder at a rate in excess of such maximum rate, the Interest Rate or the Default Rate, as the case may be, shall be deemed to be immediately reduced to such maximum rate and all previous payments in excess of the maximum rate shall be deemed to have been payments in reduction of principal and not on account of the interest due hereunder.  All sums paid or agreed to be paid to Lender for the use, forbearance, or detention of the Debt, shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated, and spread throughout the full stated term of this Note (i.e. the Maturity Date) until payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of the Debt does not exceed the maximum lawful rate of interest from time to time in effect and applicable to the Debt for so long as the Debt is outstanding.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any of the other Loan Documents, it is not the intention of Lender to accelerate the maturity of any interest that has not accrued at the time of such acceleration or to collect unearned interest at the time of such acceleration.
 
 
-12-

 
 
 9.   WAIVERS
 
(a) Except as specifically provided in the Loan Documents and to the extent permitted by law, Borrower and any endorsers, sureties or guarantors hereof jointly and severally waive presentment and demand for payment, notice of intent to accelerate maturity, notice of acceleration of maturity, protest and notice of protest and non-payment, all applicable exemption rights, valuation and appraisement, notice of demand, and all other notices in connection with the delivery, acceptance, performance, default or enforcement of the payment of this Note and the bringing of suit and diligence in taking any action to collect any sums owing hereunder or in proceeding against any of the rights and collateral securing payment hereof.  Borrower and any surety, endorser or guarantor hereof agree (i) that the time for any payments hereunder may be extended from time to time without notice and consent, (ii) to the acceptance by Lender of further collateral, (iii) the release by Lender of any existing collateral for the payment of this Note, (iv) to any and all renewals, waivers or modifications that may be granted by Lender with respect to the payment or other provisions of this Note, and/or (v) that additional Borrowers, endorsers, guarantors or sureties may become parties hereto all without notice to them and without in any manner affecting their liability under or with respect to this Note.  No extension of time for the payment of this Note or any installment hereof shall affect the liability of Borrower under this Note or any endorser or guarantor hereof even though the Borrower or such endorser or guarantor is not a party to such agreement.
 
(b) Failure of Lender to exercise any of the options granted herein to Lender upon the happening of one or more of the events giving rise to such options shall not constitute a waiver of the right to exercise the same or any other option at any subsequent time in respect to the same or any other event.  The acceptance by Lender of any payment hereunder that is less than payment in full of all amounts due and payable at the time of such payment shall not constitute a waiver of the right to exercise any of the options granted herein to Lender at that time or at any subsequent time or nullify any prior exercise of any such option without the express written acknowledgment of the Lender.
 
 10.   EXCULPATION
 
(a) Subject to the qualifications below, Lender shall not enforce the liability and obligation of Borrower to perform and observe the obligations contained in this Note, the Security Instrument or the other Loan Documents by any action or proceeding wherein a money judgment or any deficiency judgment or other judgment establishing personal liability shall be sought against Borrower or any principal, director, officer, employee, beneficiary, shareholder, partner, member, trustee, agent, or Affiliate of Borrower or any legal representatives, successors or assigns of any of the foregoing (collectively, the “Exculpated Parties”), except that Lender may bring a foreclosure action, an action for specific performance or any other appropriate action or proceeding to enable Lender to enforce and realize upon its interest under this Note, the Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents, or in the Property, the Rents, or any other collateral given to Lender pursuant to the Loan Documents; provided, however, that, except as specifically provided herein, any judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be enforceable against Borrower only to the extent of Borrower’s interest in the Property, in the Rents and in any other collateral given to Lender, and Lender, by accepting this Note, the Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents, shall not sue for, seek or demand any deficiency judgment against Borrower or any of the Exculpated Parties in any such action or proceeding under or by reason of or under or in connection with this Note, the Security Instrument or the other Loan Documents.  The provisions of this Section shall not, however, (1) constitute a waiver, release or impairment of any obligation evidenced or secured by any of the Loan Documents; (2) impair the right of Lender to name Borrower as a party defendant in any action or suit for foreclosure and sale under the Security Instrument; (3) affect the validity or enforceability of any indemnity, guaranty or similar instrument (including, without limitation, indemnities set forth in Article 11 of the Security Instrument, in the Guaranty and the Environmental Agreement) made in connection with the Loan or any of the rights and remedies of Lender thereunder (including, without limitation, Lender’s right to enforce said rights and remedies against Borrower and/or Guarantor (as applicable) personally and without the effect of the exculpatory provisions of this Section 10); (4) impair the rights of Lender to obtain the appointment of a receiver; (5) impair the enforcement of the assignment of leases and rents contained in the Security Instrument and in any other Loan Documents; (6) impair the right of Lender to enforce Section 3.8(e) of the Security Instrument; (7) constitute a prohibition against Lender to seek a deficiency judgment against Borrower in order to fully realize the security granted by the Security Instrument or to commence any other appropriate action or proceeding in order for Lender to exercise its remedies against the Property; or (8) constitute a waiver of the right of Lender to enforce the liability and obligation of Borrower, by money judgment or otherwise, to the extent of any loss incurred by Lender (including attorneys’ fees and costs reasonably incurred) arising out of or in connection with the following:
 
 
-13-

 
 
(i) fraud or intentional misrepresentation by any Borrower Party in connection with the Loan;
 
(ii) the gross negligence or willful misconduct of any Borrower Party;

(iv) waste to the Property caused by the intentional acts or intentional omissions of any Borrower Party and/or the removal or disposal of any portion of the Property after an Event of Default;
 
(v) the misapplication, misappropriation or conversion by any Borrower Party of (A) any insurance proceeds paid by reason of any loss, damage or destruction to the Property, (B) any awards or other amounts received in connection with the condemnation of all or a portion of the Property, (C) any Rents following an Event of Default or (D) any tenant security deposits or Rents collected in advance;
 
 
-14-

 
 
(vi) failure to pay or otherwise discharge Taxes or charges for labor or materials or other charges that can create liens on any portion of the Property in accordance with the terms and provisions hereof;
 
(vii) failure to pay Insurance Premiums, to maintain the Policies in full force and effect and/or to provide Lender evidence of the same, in each case, as expressly provided herein;
 
(viii) any security deposits, advance deposits or any other deposits collected with respect to the Property which are not delivered to Lender upon a foreclosure of the Property or action in lieu thereof, except to the extent any such security deposits were applied in accordance with the terms and conditions of any of the Leases prior to the occurrence of the Event of Default that gave rise to such foreclosure or action in lieu thereof;
 
(ix) any tax on the making and/or recording of the Security Instrument, this Note or any of the other Loan Documents or any transfer or similar taxes (whether due upon the making of the same or upon Lender’s exercise of its remedies under the Loan Documents), but excluding any income, franchise or other similar taxes;
 
(x) the seizure or forfeiture of the Property, or any portion thereof, or Borrower’s interest therein, resulting from criminal wrongdoing by any Borrower Party; and/or
 
(xi) the failure to permit on-site inspections of the Property and/or to provide any documents required pursuant to Section 3.8 of the Security Instrument, in each case, as and when required by the Security Instrument.
 
(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Note or any of the Loan Documents, (A) Lender shall not be deemed to have waived any right which Lender may have under Section 506(a), 506(b), 1111(b) or any other provisions of the Bankruptcy Code to file a claim for the full amount of the Debt or to require that all collateral shall continue to secure all of the Debt owing to Lender in accordance with the Loan Documents, and (B) the Debt shall be fully recourse to Borrower in the event that: (i) any representation, warranty or covenant contained in Section 4.3 or Article 8 of the Security Instrument is violated or breached or (ii) a Bankruptcy Event occurs.
 
The obligations of Borrower to Lender for which Lender has recourse against Borrower, or with respect to which Borrower is personally liable to Lender pursuant to this Section 10, entitled “Exculpation,” shall be referred to as the “Recourse Obligations of Borrower”.

(ii) comprehensive commercial general liability insurance against claims for personal injury, bodily injury, death or property damage occurring upon, in or about the Property, such insurance (A) to be on the so-called “occurrence” form with a combined single limit of not less than $1,000,000.00 per occurrence and not less than $2,000,000.00 in the aggregate,; (B) to continue at not less than the aforesaid limit until required to be changed by Lender in writing by reason of changed economic conditions making such protection inadequate; (C) to cover at least the following hazards:  (1) premises and operations; (2) products and completed operations on an “if any” basis; (3) independent contractors; (4) blanket contractual liability for all written and oral contracts; (5) contractual liability covering the indemnities contained in Article 11 hereof to the extent the same is available; and (D) to be without deductible;

(iv) at all times during which structural construction, repairs or alterations are being made with respect to the Improvements: (A) owner's contingent or protective liability insurance covering claims not covered by or under the terms or provisions of the above mentioned commercial general liability insurance policy; and (B) the insurance provided for in Subsection 3.2(a)(i) written in a so-called builder's risk completed value form (1) on a non-reporting basis, (2) against all risks insured against pursuant to Subsection 3.2(a)(i), (3) including permission to occupy the Property, and (4) with an agreed amount endorsement waiving co-insurance provisions;
 
 
-8-

(vi) comprehensive boiler and machinery insurance (without exclusion for explosion), if applicable, covering all boilers or other pressure vessels, turbines, engines, machinery and equipment located at or about the Property (including, without limitation, electrical equipment, sprinkler systems, heating and air conditioning equipment, refrigeration equipment and piping) for 100% of the full replacement cost of such equipment and the building or buildings housing same;
 
(vii) if any portion of the Improvements is currently or at any time in the future located in a “special flood hazard area” as designated by the Federal Emergency Management Agency or such other applicable federal agency, flood hazard insurance in an amount equal to the greater of (A) Full Replacement Cost, or (B) the maximum amount available under the National Flood Insurance Program;
 
(viii) umbrella liability insurance in an amount not less than Ten Million and No/100 Dollars ($10,000,000.00) per occurrence and in the aggregate on terms consistent with the commercial general liability insurance policy required under Section 3.2(a)(ii) hereof;
 
(ix) intentionally omitted; and
 
(x) such other insurance and in such amounts as Lender from time to time may reasonably request against such other insurable hazards which at the time are commonly insured against for property similar to the Property located in or around the region in which the Property is located, including, without limitation, mine subsidence insurance and environmental insurance, but excluding terrorism and earthquake insurance.
 
(b) All insurance provided for in Subsection 3.2(a) hereof shall be obtained under valid and enforceable policies (the “Policies” or in the singular, the “Policy”), in such forms and, from time to time after the date hereof, in such amounts as may from time to time be reasonably satisfactory to Lender, for a minimum policy term not less than one year, issued by financially sound and responsible insurance companies authorized to do business in the state in which the Property is located as admitted or unadmitted carriers which, in either case, have been approved by Lender and which have a claims paying ability rating of at least A or better issued by Standard & Poor's Ratings Services, a division of the McGraw Hill Companies, Inc., or A:X by A.M. Best or with a claims paying ability rating otherwise acceptable to Lender (each such insurer shall be referred to below as a “Qualified Insurer”).  Such Policies shall not be subject to invalidation due to the use or occupancy of the Property for purposes more hazardous than the use of the Property at the time such Policies were issued.  No Policy required under Sections 3.2(a)(i) and (iii) hereof shall contain an exclusion from coverage under such Policy for loss or damage incurred as a result of an act of terrorism or similar acts of sabotage.  Not less than thirty (30) days prior to the expiration dates of the Policies theretofore furnished to Lender pursuant to Subsection 3.2(a), certified copies of the Policies marked “premium paid” or accompanied by evidence reasonably satisfactory to Lender of payment of the premiums due thereunder (the “Insurance Premiums”), shall be delivered by Borrower to Lender; provided, however, that in the case of renewal Policies, Borrower may furnish Lender with binders therefor to be followed by the original Policies when issued.

(i) no act or negligence of Borrower, or anyone acting for Borrower, or of any tenant under any Lease or other occupant, or failure to comply with the provisions of any Policy which might otherwise result in a forfeiture of the insurance or any part thereof, shall in any way affect the validity or enforceability of the insurance insofar as Lender is concerned;
 
(ii) the Policy shall not be materially changed (other than to increase the coverage provided on the Property thereby) or canceled without at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to Lender and any other party named therein as an insured;

(iii) each Policy shall provide that the issuers thereof shall give written notice to Lender if the Policy has not been renewed thirty (30) days prior to its expiration; and
 
(iv) Lender shall not be liable for any Insurance Premiums thereon or subject to any assessments thereunder.
 
(f) Borrower shall furnish to Lender within ten (10) calendar days after Lender’s request therefor, a statement certified by Borrower or a duly authorized officer of Borrower of the amounts of insurance maintained in compliance herewith, of the risks covered by such insurance and of the insurance company or companies which carry such insurance and, if requested by Lender, verification of the adequacy of such insurance by an independent insurance broker or appraiser reasonably acceptable to Lender.
 
(g) If at any time Lender is not in receipt of written evidence that all insurance required hereunder is in full force and effect, Lender shall have the right but not the obligation, on notice to Borrower, to take such action as Lender deems necessary to protect its interest in the Property, including, without limitation, the obtaining of such insurance coverage as Lender in its reasonable discretion deems appropriate, and all expenses incurred by Lender in connection with such action or in obtaining such insurance and keeping it in effect shall be paid by Borrower to Lender within five (5) business days of demand and from such date until paid shall be secured by this Security Instrument and shall bear interest at the Default Rate (as hereinafter defined).
 
(h) If the Property shall be damaged or destroyed, in whole or in part, by fire or other casualty, Borrower shall give prompt notice thereof to Lender.
 
(i) In case of loss covered by Policies, Lender may either (1) settle and adjust any claim without the consent of Borrower, or (2) allow Borrower to agree with the insurance company or companies on the amount to be paid upon the loss; provided, that Borrower may adjust losses aggregating not in excess of $500,000.00 if such adjustment is carried out in a competent and timely manner, and provided that in any case Lender shall and is hereby authorized to collect and receive any such insurance proceeds; and the expenses incurred by Lender in the adjustment and collection of insurance proceeds shall become part of the Debt and be secured hereby and shall be reimbursed by Borrower to Lender upon demand (unless deducted by and reimbursed to Lender from such proceeds).
 
(ii) In the event of any insured damage to or destruction of the Property or any part thereof (herein called an “Insured Casualty”), if (A) less than 65% of the total floor area of the Improvements has been damaged, destroyed or rendered unusable as a result of such Insured Casualty and in the reasonable judgment of Lender, the Property can be restored within six (6) months after insurance proceeds are made available and at least three (3) months prior to the Maturity Date (as defined in the Note) to an economic unit not less valuable (including an assessment by Lender of the impact of the termination of any Leases due to such Insured Casualty) and not less useful than the same was prior to the Insured Casualty, and after such restoration will adequately secure the outstanding balance of the Debt, and (B) no Event of Default (hereinafter defined) shall have occurred and be then continuing, then the proceeds of insurance shall be applied to reimburse Borrower for the cost of restoring, repairing, replacing or rebuilding the Property or part thereof subject to Insured Casualty, as provided below; and Borrower hereby covenants and agrees forthwith to commence and diligently to prosecute such restoring, repairing, replacing or rebuilding; provided, however, in any event Borrower shall pay all costs (and if required by Lender, Borrower shall deposit the total thereof with Lender in advance) of such restoring, repairing, replacing or rebuilding in excess of the net proceeds of insurance made available pursuant to the terms hereof.

(iv) If proceeds of insurance, if any, are made available to Borrower for the restoring, repairing, replacing or rebuilding of the Property, Borrower hereby covenants to restore, repair, replace or rebuild the same to be of at least equal value and of substantially the same character as prior to such damage or destruction (unless otherwise consented to by Lender in writing, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld), all to be effected in accordance with applicable law and plans and specifications approved in advance by Lender in writing, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld.
 
(v) If Borrower is entitled to reimbursement out of insurance proceeds held by Lender, such proceeds shall be disbursed from time to time upon Lender being furnished with (1) evidence reasonably satisfactory to it (which evidence may include inspections of the work performed) that the restoration, repair, replacement and rebuilding covered by the disbursement has been completed in accordance with plans and specifications approved by Lender, (2) evidence reasonably satisfactory to it of the estimated cost of completion of the restoration, repair, replacement and rebuilding, (3) funds, or, at Lender’s option, assurances reasonably satisfactory to Lender that such funds are available, sufficient in addition to the proceeds of insurance to complete the proposed restoration, repair, replacement and rebuilding, and (4) such architect’s certificates, waivers of lien, contractor’s sworn statements, title insurance endorsements, bonds, plats of survey and such other evidences of cost, payment and performance as Lender may reasonably require and approve; and Lender may, in any event, require that all plans and specifications for such restoration, repair, replacement and rebuilding be submitted to and approved by Lender prior to commencement of work.  With respect to disbursements to be made by Lender:  (A) no payment made prior to the final completion of the restoration, repair, replacement and rebuilding shall exceed ninety percent (90%) of the value of the work performed from time to time; (B) funds other than proceeds of insurance which are required to complete such restoration shall be disbursed prior to disbursement of such proceeds; and (C) at all times, the undisbursed balance of such proceeds remaining in the hands of Lender, together with funds deposited for that purpose or irrevocably committed to the reasonable satisfaction of Lender by or on behalf of Borrower for that purpose, shall be at least sufficient in the reasonable judgment of Lender to pay for the cost of completion of the restoration, repair, replacement or rebuilding, free and clear of all liens or claims for lien and the costs described in Subsection 3.2(h)(vi) below.  Any surplus which may remain out of insurance proceeds held by Lender after payment of such costs of restoration, repair, replacement or rebuilding shall, if no Event of Default shall then exist and be continuing, be paid to Borrower or any other party entitled thereto.  In no event shall Lender assume any duty or obligation for the adequacy, form or content of any such plans and specifications, nor for the performance, quality or workmanship of any restoration, repair, replacement and rebuilding.

(vi) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the proceeds of insurance reimbursed to Borrower in accordance with the terms and provisions of this Security Instrument shall be reduced by the costs (if any) incurred by Lender in the adjustment and collection thereof and in the costs incurred by Lender of paying out such proceeds (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs paid to third parties for inspecting the restoration, repair, replacement and rebuilding and reviewing the plans and specifications therefor).
 
Section 3.2. PAYMENT OF TAXES, ETC.

Section 3.3. CONDEMNATION.  Borrower shall promptly give Lender notice of the actual commencement, or written threat of commencement, of any condemnation or eminent domain proceeding and shall deliver to Lender copies of any and all papers served in connection with such proceedings.  Lender is hereby irrevocably appointed as Borrower’s attorney-in-fact, coupled with an interest, with exclusive power to collect, receive and retain any award or payment for said condemnation or eminent domain and to make any compromise or settlement in connection with such proceeding, subject to the provisions of this Security Instrument.  Notwithstanding any taking by any public or quasi-public authority through eminent domain or otherwise (including but not limited to any transfer made in lieu of or in anticipation of the exercise of such taking), Borrower shall continue to pay the Debt at the time and in the manner provided for its payment in the Note and in this Security Instrument and the Debt shall not be reduced until any award or payment therefor shall have been actually received and applied by Lender, after the deduction of expenses of collection, to the reduction or discharge of the Debt.  Lender shall not be limited to the interest paid on the award by the condemning authority but shall be entitled to receive out of the award interest at the rate or rates provided herein or in the Note. Borrower shall cause the award or payment made in any condemnation or eminent domain proceeding, which is payable to Borrower, to be paid directly to Lender, subject to the rights of tenants (other than Borrower as tenant under the Master Lease).  Lender may apply any award or payment to the reduction or discharge of the Debt whether or not then due and payable (such application to be free from any prepayment consideration provided in the Note, except that if an Event of Default, or an event which with notice and/or the passage of time, or both, would constitute an Event of Default, has occurred, then such application shall be subject to the full prepayment consideration computed in accordance with the Note).  If the Property is sold, through foreclosure or otherwise, prior to the receipt by Lender of the award or payment, Lender shall have the right, whether or not a deficiency judgment on the Note shall have been sought, recovered or denied, to receive the award or payment, or a portion thereof sufficient to pay the Debt.
 
Section 3.4. USE AND MAINTENANCE OF PROPERTY.  Borrower shall cause the Property to be maintained and operated in a good and safe condition and repair and in keeping with the condition and repair of properties of a similar use, value, age, nature and construction.  Borrower shall not use, maintain or operate the Property in any manner which constitutes a public or private nuisance or which makes void, voidable, or cancelable, or increases the premium of, any insurance then in force with respect thereto.  The Improvements and the Personal Property shall not be removed, demolished or materially altered (except for normal replacement of the Personal Property with items of the same utility and of equal or greater value and except as permitted under Leases (other than the Master Lease) for approved construction and landlord or tenant fit outs) without the prior written consent of Lender.  Borrower shall promptly repair, replace or rebuild any part of the Property which may be destroyed by any casualty, or become damaged, worn or dilapidated or which may be affected by any proceeding of the character referred to in Section 3.4 hereof and shall complete and pay for any structure at any time in the process of construction or repair on the Land, subject to the obligations of tenants under any Leases (other than the Master Lease).  Borrower shall not initiate, join in, acquiesce in, or consent to any change in any private restrictive covenant, zoning law or other public or private restriction, limiting or defining the uses which may be made of the Property or any part thereof without the prior written consent of Lender which shall not be unreasonably withheld.  If under applicable zoning provisions the use of all or any portion of the Property is or shall become a nonconforming use, Borrower will not cause or permit the nonconforming use to be discontinued or abandoned without the express written consent of Lender which shall not be unreasonably withheld.  Borrower shall not take any steps whatsoever to convert the Property, or any portion thereof, to a condominium or cooperative form of management.

(b) Notwithstanding any provisions set forth herein or in any document regarding Lender’s approval of alterations of the Property, Borrower shall not alter the Property in any manner which would increase Borrower’s responsibilities for compliance with Applicable Laws without the prior written approval of Lender.  Lender’s approval of the plans, specifications, or working drawings for alterations of the Property shall create no responsibility or liability on behalf of Lender for their completeness, design, sufficiency or their compliance with Applicable Laws.  The foregoing shall apply to tenant improvements constructed by Borrower or by any of its tenants.  Lender may condition any such approval upon receipt of a certificate of compliance with Applicable Laws from an independent architect, engineer, or other person acceptable to Lender.
 
(c) Borrower shall give prompt notice to Lender of the receipt by Borrower of any notice related to a violation of any Applicable Laws and of the commencement of any proceedings or investigations which relate to compliance with Applicable Laws.

ARTICLE 10                                - RIGHTS AND REMEDIES
 
Section 10.1. REMEDIES.  Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, Borrower agrees that Lender may take such action, without notice or demand, as it deems advisable to protect and enforce its rights against Borrower and in and to the Property, including, but not limited to, the following actions, each of which may be pursued concurrently or otherwise, at such time and in such order as Lender may determine, in its sole discretion, without impairing or otherwise affecting the other rights and remedies of Lender:
 
(a) Right to Perform Borrower’s Covenants.  If Borrower has failed to keep or perform any covenant whatsoever contained in this Security Instrument or the Other Loan Documents, Lender may, but shall not be obligated to any person to do so, perform or attempt to perform said covenant and any payment made or expense incurred in the performance or attempted performance of any such covenant, together with any sum expended by Lender that is chargeable to Borrower or subject to reimbursement by Borrower under the Loan Documents, shall be and become a part of the “Debt”, and Borrower promises, upon demand, to pay to Lender, at the place where the Note is payable, all sums so incurred, paid or expended by Lender, with interest from the date when paid, incurred or expended by Lender at the Default Rate.
 
(b) Right of Entry.  Lender may, prior or subsequent to the institution of any foreclosure proceedings, and subject to the rights of tenants (other than Borrower as tenant under the Master Lease) enter upon the Property, or any part thereof, and take exclusive possession of the Property and of all books, records, and accounts relating thereto and to exercise without interference from Borrower any and all rights which Borrower has with respect to the management, possession, operation, protection, or preservation of the Property, including without limitation the right to rent the same for the account of Borrower and to deduct from such Rents all costs, expenses, and liabilities of every character incurred by Lender in collecting such Rents and in managing, operating, maintaining, protecting, or preserving the Property and to apply the remainder of such Rents on the Debt in such manner as Lender may elect.  All such costs, expenses, and liabilities incurred by Lender in collecting such Rents and in managing, operating, maintaining, protecting, or preserving the Property, if not paid out of Rents as hereinabove provided, shall constitute a demand obligation owing by Borrower and shall bear interest from the date of expenditure until paid at the Default Rate, all of which shall constitute a portion of the Debt.  If necessary to obtain the possession provided for above, Lender may invoke any and all legal remedies to dispossess Borrower, including specifically one or more actions for forcible entry and detainer, trespass to try title, and restitution.  In connection with any action taken by Lender pursuant to this Subsection 10.1(b), Lender shall not be liable for any loss sustained by Borrower resulting from any failure to let the Property, or any part thereof, or from any other act or omission of Lender in managing the Property unless such loss is caused by the willful misconduct or gross negligence of Lender, nor shall Lender be obligated to perform or discharge any obligation, duty, or liability under any Lease or under or by reason hereof or the exercise of rights or remedies hereunder.  Borrower shall and does hereby agree to indemnify Lender for, and to hold Lender harmless from, any and all liability, loss, or damage, which may or might be incurred by Lender under any such Lease or under or by reason hereof or the exercise of rights or remedies hereunder, and from any and all claims and demands whatsoever which may be asserted against Lender by reason of any alleged obligations or undertakings on its part to perform or discharge any of the terms, covenants, or agreements contained in any such Lease unless arising from the willful misconduct or gross negligence of Lender.  Should Lender incur any such liability, the amount thereof, including without limitation costs, expenses, and reasonable attorneys’ fees, together with interest thereon from the date of expenditure until paid at the Default Rate, shall be secured hereby, and Borrower shall reimburse Lender therefor immediately upon demand.  Nothing in this Subsection 10.1(b) shall impose any duty, obligation, or responsibility upon Lender for the control, care, management, leasing, or repair of the Property, nor for the carrying out of any of the terms and conditions of any such Lease; nor shall it operate to make Lender responsible or liable for any waste committed on the Property by the tenants or by any other parties, or for any hazardous substances or environmental conditions on or under the Property, or for any dangerous or defective condition of the Property or for any negligence in the management, leasing, upkeep, repair, or control of the Property resulting in loss or injury or death to any tenant, licensee, employee, or stranger.  Borrower hereby assents to, ratifies, and confirms any and all actions of Lender with respect to the Property taken under this subsection.
 
 
-35-

 
 
(c) Right to Accelerate.  Lender may, without notice demand, presentment, notice of nonpayment or nonperformance, protest, notice of protest, notice of intent to accelerate, notice of acceleration, or any other notice or any other action, all of which are hereby waived by Borrower and all other parties obligated in any manner whatsoever on the Debt, declare the entire unpaid balance of the Debt immediately due and payable, and upon such declaration, the entire unpaid balance of the Debt shall be immediately due and payable.
 
(d) Foreclosure-Power of Sale.  Lender may institute a proceeding or proceedings, judicial, or nonjudicial, by advertisement or otherwise, for the complete or partial foreclosure of this Security Instrument or the complete or partial sale of the Property under power of sale or under any applicable provision of law.  Lender may sell the Property, and all estate, right, title, interest, claim and demand of Borrower therein, and all rights of redemption thereof, at one or more sales, as an entirety or in parcels, with such elements of real and/or personal property, and at such time and place and upon such terms as it may deem expedient, or as may be required by applicable law, and in the event of a sale, by foreclosure or otherwise, of less than all of the Property, this Security Instrument shall continue as a lien and security interest on the remaining portion of the Property.
 
 
-36-

 
 
(e) Rights Pertaining to Sales.  Subject to the requirements of applicable law and except as otherwise provided herein, the following provisions shall apply to any sale or sales of all or any portion of the Property under or by virtue of Subsection 10.1(d) above, whether made under the power of sale herein granted or by virtue of judicial proceedings or of a judgment or decree of foreclosure and sale:
 
(i) Lender may conduct any number of sales from time to time.  The power of sale set forth above shall not be exhausted by any one or more such sales as to any part of the Property which shall not have been sold, nor by any sale which is not completed or is defective in Lender’s opinion, until the Debt shall have been paid in full.
 
(ii) Any sale may be postponed or adjourned by public announcement at the time and place appointed for such sale or for such postponed or adjourned sale without further notice.
 
(iii) After each sale, Lender or an officer of any court empowered to do so shall execute and deliver to the purchaser or purchasers at such sale a good and sufficient instrument or instruments granting, conveying, assigning and transferring all right, title and interest of Borrower in and to the property and rights sold and shall receive the proceeds of said sale or sales and apply the same as specified in the Note.  Lender is hereby appointed the true and lawful attorney-in-fact of Borrower, which appointment is irrevocable and shall be deemed to be coupled with an interest, in Borrower’s name and stead, to make all necessary conveyances, assignments, transfers and deliveries of the property and rights so sold, Borrower hereby ratifying and confirming all that said attorney or such substitute or substitutes shall lawfully do by virtue thereof.  Nevertheless, Borrower, if requested by Lender, shall ratify and confirm any such sale or sales by executing and delivering to Lender or such purchaser or purchasers all such instruments as may be advisable, in Lender’s judgment, for the purposes as may be designated in such request.
 
(iv) Any and all statements of fact or other recitals made in any of the instruments referred to in Subsection 10.1(e)(iii) given by Lender shall be taken as conclusive and binding against all persons as to evidence of the truth of the facts so stated and recited.
 
(v) Any such sale or sales shall operate to divest all of the estate, right, title, interest, claim and demand whatsoever, whether at law or in equity, of Borrower in and to the properties and rights so sold, and shall be a perpetual bar both at law and in equity against Borrower and any and all persons claiming or who may claim the same, or any part thereof or any interest therein, by, through or under Borrower to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.
 
 
-37-

 
 
(vi) Upon any such sale or sales, Lender may bid for and acquire the Property and, in lieu of paying cash therefor, may make settlement for the purchase price by crediting against the Debt the amount of the bid made therefor, after deducting therefrom the expenses of the sale, the cost of any enforcement proceeding hereunder, and any other sums which Lender is authorized to deduct under the terms hereof, to the extent necessary to satisfy such bid.
 
(vii) Upon any such sale, it shall not be necessary for Lender or any public officer acting under execution or order of court to have present or constructively in its possession any of the Property.
 
(f) Lender’s Judicial Remedies.  Lender may proceed by suit or suits, at law or in equity, to enforce the payment of the Debt to foreclose the liens and security interests of this Security Instrument as against all or any part of the Property, and to have all or any part of the Property sold under the judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction.  This remedy shall be cumulative of any other nonjudicial remedies available to Lender under this Security Instrument, the Note or the Other Loan Documents.  Proceeding with a request or receiving a judgment for legal relief shall not be or be deemed to be an election of remedies or bar any available nonjudicial remedy of Lender.
 
(g) Lender’s Right to Appointment of Receiver.  Lender, as a matter of right unless otherwise required by law and (i) without regard to the sufficiency of the security for repayment of the Debt and without notice to Borrower, (ii) without any showing of insolvency, fraud, or mismanagement on the part of Borrower, (iii) without the necessity of filing any judicial or other proceeding other than the proceeding for appointment of a receiver, and (iv) without regard to the then value of the Property, shall be entitled to the appointment of a receiver or receivers for the protection, possession, control, management and operation of the Property, including (without limitation), the power to collect the Rents, enforce this Security Instrument and, in case of a sale and deficiency, during the full statutory period of redemption (if any), whether there be a redemption or not, as well as during any further times when Borrower, except for the intervention of such receiver, would be entitled to collection of such Rents.  Borrower hereby irrevocably consents to the appointment of a receiver or receivers.  Any receiver appointed pursuant to the provisions of this subsection shall have the usual powers and duties of receivers in such matters.
 
(h) Commercial Code Remedies.  Lender may exercise any and all rights and remedies granted to a secured party upon default under the Uniform Commercial Code, including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing: (i) the right to take possession of the Personal Property or any part thereof, and to take such other measures as Lender may deem necessary for the care, protection and preservation of the Personal Property, and (ii) request Borrower at its expense to assemble the Personal Property and make it available to Lender at a convenient place acceptable to Lender.  Any notice of sale, disposition or other intended action by Lender with respect to the Personal Property sent to Borrower in accordance with the provisions hereof at least ten (10) days prior to such action, shall constitute commercially reasonable notice to Borrower.
 
 
-38-

(i) Taxes and Other Charges;
 
(ii) Insurance Premiums;
 
(iii) Interest on the unpaid principal balance of the Note;
 
(iv) Amortization of the unpaid principal balance of the Note; and

(j) Other Rights.  Lender (i) may surrender the Policies maintained pursuant to this Security Instrument or any part thereof, and upon receipt shall apply the unearned premiums as a credit on the Debt, and, in connection therewith, Borrower hereby appoints Lender as agent and attorney-in-fact (which is coupled with an interest and is therefore irrevocable) for Borrower to collect such premiums; and (ii) may apply any funds held by Lender toward payment of the Debt; and (iii) shall have and may exercise any and all other rights and remedies which Lender may have at law or in equity, or by virtue of any of the Loan Documents, or otherwise.
 
(k) Discontinuance of Remedies.  In case Lender shall have proceeded to invoke any right, remedy, or recourse permitted under the Loan Documents and shall thereafter elect to discontinue or abandon same for any reason, Lender shall have the unqualified right so to do and, in such event, Borrower and Lender shall be restored to their former positions with respect to the Debt, the Loan Documents, the Property or otherwise, and the rights, remedies, recourses and powers of Lender shall continue as if same had never been invoked.
 
(l) Remedies Cumulative.  All rights, remedies, and recourses of Lender granted in the Note, this Security Instrument and the Other Loan Documents, any other pledge of collateral, or otherwise available at law or equity:  (i) shall be cumulative and concurrent; (ii) may be pursued separately, successively, or concurrently against Borrower, the Property, or any one or more of them, at the sole discretion of Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable law; (iii) may be exercised as often as occasion therefor shall arise, it being agreed by Borrower that the exercise or failure to exercise any of same shall in no event be construed as a waiver or release thereof or of any other right, remedy, or recourse; (iv) shall be nonexclusive; (v) shall not be conditioned upon Lender exercising or pursuing any remedy in relation to the Property prior to Lender bringing suit to recover the Debt; and (vi) in the event Lender elects to bring suit on the Debt and obtains a judgment against Borrower prior to exercising any remedies in relation to the Property, all liens and security interests, including the lien of this Security Instrument, shall remain in full force and effect and may be exercised thereafter at Lender’s option, to the extent permitted by applicable law.
 
 
-39-

 
 
(m) Bankruptcy Acknowledgment.  In the event the Property or any portion thereof or any interest therein becomes property of any bankruptcy estate or subject to any state or federal insolvency proceeding, then Lender shall immediately become entitled, in addition to all other relief to which Lender may be entitled under this Security Instrument, to obtain (i) an order from the Bankruptcy Court or other appropriate court granting immediate relief from the automatic stay pursuant to § 362 of the Bankruptcy Code so to permit Lender to pursue its rights and remedies against Borrower as provided under this Security Instrument and all other rights and remedies of Lender at law and in equity under applicable state law, and (ii) an order from the Bankruptcy Court prohibiting Borrower’s use of all “cash collateral” as defined under § 363 of the Bankruptcy Code.  In connection with such Bankruptcy Court orders, Borrower shall not contend or allege in any pleading or petition filed in any court proceeding that Lender does not have sufficient grounds for relief from the automatic stay.  Any bankruptcy petition or other action taken by the Borrower to stay, condition, or inhibit Lender from exercising its remedies are hereby admitted by Borrower to be in bad faith and Borrower further admits that Lender would have just cause for relief from the automatic stay in order to take such actions authorized under state law.
 
(n) Application of Proceeds.  The proceeds from any sale, lease, or other disposition made pursuant to this Security Instrument, or the proceeds from the surrender of any insurance policies pursuant hereto, or any Rents collected by Lender from the Property or proceeds from insurance which Lender elects to apply to the Debt pursuant to Article 3 hereof, shall be applied by Lender to the Debt in the following order and priority:  (1) to the payment of all expenses of advertising, selling, and conveying the Property or part thereof, and/or prosecuting or otherwise collecting Rents, proceeds, premiums or other sums including reasonable attorneys’ fees; (2) to that portion, if any, of the Debt with respect to which no person or entity has personal or entity liability for payment (the “Exculpated Portion”), and with respect to the Exculpated Portion as follows: first, to accrued but unpaid interest, second, to matured principal, and third, to unmatured principal in inverse order of maturity; (3) to the remainder of the Debt as follows:  first, to the remaining accrued but unpaid interest, second, to the matured portion of principal of the Debt, and third, to prepayment of the unmatured portion, if any, of principal of the Debt applied to installments of principal in inverse order of maturity; (4) the balance, if any or to the extent applicable, remaining after the full and final payment of the Debt to the holder or beneficiary of any inferior liens covering the Property, if any, in order of the priority of such inferior liens (Lender shall hereby be entitled to rely exclusively on a commitment for title insurance issued to determine such priority); and (5) the cash balance, if any, to the Borrower.  The application of proceeds of sale or other proceeds as otherwise provided herein shall be deemed to be a payment of the Debt like any other payment.  The balance of the Debt remaining unpaid, if any, shall remain fully due and owing in accordance with the terms of the Note and the other Loan Documents.

(c) A waiver of subrogation shall be obtained by Borrower from its insurance carrier and, consequently, Borrower waives any and all right to claim or recover against Lender, its officers, employees, agents and representatives, for loss of or damage to Borrower, the Property, Borrower’s property or the property of others under Borrower’s control from any cause insured against or required to be insured against by the provisions of this Security Instrument.

ARTICLE 12                                - SECURITY AGREEMENT
 
Section 12.1. SECURITY AGREEMENT.  This Security Instrument is both a real property mortgage and a “security agreement” within the meaning of the Uniform Commercial Code.  The Property includes both real and personal property and all other rights and interests, whether tangible or intangible in nature, of Borrower in the Property.  Borrower by executing and delivering this Security Instrument has granted and hereby grants to Lender, as security for the Obligations, a security interest in the Property to the full extent that the Property may be subject to the Uniform Commercial Code (said portion of the Property so subject to the Uniform Commercial Code being called in this paragraph the “Collateral”).  Borrower hereby authorizes Lender to prepare and file, in form and substance satisfactory to Lender, such financing statements, continuation statements, other uniform commercial code forms and shall pay all expenses and fees in connection with the filing and recording thereof, and such further assurances as Lender may from time to time, reasonably consider necessary to create, perfect, and preserve Lender’s security interest herein granted.  This Security Instrument shall also be effective as a “fixture filing” as to Property which is or is to become fixtures.  Information concerning the security interest herein granted may be obtained from the parties at the addresses of the parties set forth in the first paragraph of this Security Instrument.  If an Event of Default shall occur, Lender, in addition to any other rights and remedies which they may have, shall have and may exercise immediately and without demand, any and all rights and remedies granted to a secured party upon default under the Uniform Commercial Code, including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the right to take possession of the Collateral or any part thereof, and to take such other measures as Lender may deem necessary for the care, protection and preservation of the Collateral.  Upon request or demand of Lender, Borrower shall at its expense assemble the Collateral and make it available to Lender at a convenient place acceptable to Lender.  Borrower shall pay to Lender on demand any and all expenses, including legal expenses and attorneys’ fees, incurred or paid by Lender in protecting the interest in the Collateral and in enforcing the rights hereunder with respect to the Collateral.  Any notice of sale, disposition or other intended action by Lender with respect to the Collateral sent to Borrower in accordance with the provisions hereof at least ten (10) days prior to such action, shall constitute commercially reasonable notice to Borrower.  The proceeds of any disposition of the Collateral, or any part thereof, may be applied by Lender to the payment of the Obligations in such priority and proportions as Lender in its discretion shall deem proper.  Borrower shall promptly advise Lender of the accrual of any commercial tort claims involving the Property.  In the event of any change in name, identity, structure, or jurisdiction or form of organization of any Borrower, such Borrower shall notify Lender thereof, and Lender shall be authorized to prepare and file such Uniform Commercial Code forms as Lender may deem necessary to maintain the priority of Lender’s lien upon and security interest in the Collateral, and Borrower shall pay all expenses and fees in connection with such filing.  Lender shall also be authorized to prepare and file such other additional Uniform Commercial Code forms or continuation statements as Lender shall deem necessary, and Borrower shall pay all expenses and fees in connection with the filing thereof, it being understood and agreed, however, that no such additional documents shall increase Borrower’s obligations under the Note, this Security Instrument and the Other Loan Documents.  Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints Lender as its attorney-in-fact, coupled with an interest, to file with the appropriate public office on its behalf any financing or other statements signed only by Lender, as Borrower’s attorney-in-fact, in connection with the Collateral covered by this Security Instrument, if Borrower shall fail to promptly comply with the provisions of this Section 12.1 after notice by Lender.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower shall appear and defend in any action or proceeding which affects or purports to affect the Property and any interest or right therein, whether such proceeding affects title or any other rights in the Property (and in conjunction therewith, Borrower shall fully cooperate with Lender in the event Lender is a party to such action or proceeding).

Section 15.2. USURY LAWS.  This Security Instrument and the Note are subject to the express condition that at no time shall Borrower be obligated or required to pay interest on the Debt at a rate which could subject the holder of the Note to either civil or criminal liability as a result of being in excess of the maximum interest rate which Borrower is permitted by applicable law to contract or agree to pay.  If by the terms of this Security Instrument or the Note, Borrower is at any time required or obligated to pay interest on the Debt at a rate in excess of such maximum rate, the rate of interest under the Security Instrument and the Note shall be deemed to be immediately reduced to such maximum rate and the interest payable shall be computed at such maximum rate and all prior interest payments in excess of such maximum rate shall be applied and shall be deemed to have been payments in reduction of the principal balance of the Note.  All sums paid or agreed to be paid to Lender for the use, forbearance, or detention of the Debt shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated, and spread throughout the full stated term of the Note until payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of the Debt does not exceed the maximum lawful rate of interest from time to time in effect and applicable to the Debt for so long as the Debt is outstanding.

Section 20.7. NONJUDICIAL FORECLOSURE.  In addition to any other remedy available to Lender under Section 9.1 of this Security Instrument or otherwise, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, Lender shall have the right to sell the Property pursuant to Article 14 of the New York Real Property Actions and Proceedings Law.
 
Section 20.8. STATUTORY CONSTRUCTION.  The clauses and covenants contained in this Security Instrument that are construed by Section 254 of the New York Real Property Law shall be construed as provided in those sections (except as provided in Section 20.4). The additional clauses and covenants contained in this Security Instrument shall afford rights supplemental to and not exclusive of the rights conferred by the clauses and covenants construed by Section 254 and shall not impair, modify, alter or defeat such rights (except as provided in Section 20.4), notwithstanding that such additional clauses and covenants may relate to the same subject matter or provide for different or additional rights in the same or similar contingencies as the clauses and covenants construed by Section 254. The rights of Lender arising under the clauses and covenants contained in this Security Instrument shall be separate, distinct and cumulative and none of them shall be in exclusion of the others.  No act of Lender shall be construed as an election to proceed under any one provision herein to the exclusion of any other provision, anything herein or otherwise to the contrary notwithstanding. In the event of any inconsistencies between the provisions of Section 254 and the provisions of this Security Instrument, the provisions of this Security Instrument shall prevail.
 
Section 20.9. TRANSFER TAXES.
 
(a) In the event of any sale or transfer of the Property, or any part thereof, including any sale or transfer by reason of foreclosure of this Security Instrument or any prior or subordinate mortgage or by deed in lieu of any such foreclosure, Borrower shall timely and duly complete, execute and deliver to Lender all forms and supporting documentation required by any taxing authority to estimate and fix any tax payable by reason of such sale or transfer or recording of the deed evidencing such sale or transfer, including any New York State Real Estate Transfer Tax payable pursuant to Article 31 of the New York Tax Law and New York City Real Property Transfer Tax payable pursuant to Chapter 21, Title 11 of the New York City Administrative Code (individually, a “Transfer Tax” and collectively, the “Transfer Taxes”).
 
(b) Borrower shall pay the Transfer Taxes that may hereafter become due and payable with respect to any sale or transfer of the Property described in this Article, and in default of such payment, Lender may pay the same and the amount of such payment shall be added to the Debt secured hereby and, unless incurred in connection with a foreclosure of this Security Instrument or deed in lieu of such foreclosure, be secured by this Security Instrument.
 
 
-55-

 
 
(c) In the event that Borrower fails to execute the same and such failure continues for more than ten (10) business days after Lender requests Borrower to execute the same, Borrower hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints Lender as its attorney-in-fact, coupled with an interest, to prepare and deliver any questionnaire, statement, affidavit or tax return in connection with any Transfer Tax applicable to any foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure described in this Article.
 
(d) Borrower shall indemnify and hold harmless Lender against (i) any and all liability incurred by Lender for the payment of any Transfer Tax with respect to any transfer of the Property, and (ii) any and all expenses reasonably incurred by Lender in connection therewith including, without limitation, interest, penalties and reasonable attorneys’ fees.
 
(e) The obligation to pay the taxes and indemnify Lender under this Article is a personal obligation of Borrower, whether or not Borrower is personally obligated to pay the Debt secured by this Security Instrument, and shall be binding upon and enforceable against the distributees, successors and assigns of Borrower with the same force and effect as though each of them had personally executed and delivered this Security Instrument, notwithstanding any exculpation provision in favor of Borrower with respect to the payment of any other monetary obligations under this Security Instrument. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the indemnity contained in this Section 20.9(e) does not apply to any direct or indirect member, manager, shareholder, partner, beneficiary or other owner of beneficial ownership interest in Borrower or any director, officer, employer or trustee of any of the foregoing.
 
(f) In the event that Borrower fails or refuses to pay a tax payable by Borrower with respect to a sale or transfer by reason of a foreclosure of this Security Instrument in accordance with this Article, the amount of the tax, any interest or penalty applicable thereto and any other amount payable pursuant to Borrower’s obligation to indemnify Lender under this Article may, at the sole option of Lender, be paid as an expense of the sale out of the proceeds of the mortgage foreclosure sale.
 
(g) The provisions of this Article shall survive any transfer and the delivery of the deed affecting such transfer. Nothing in this Article shall be deemed to grant to Borrower any greater rights to sell, assign or otherwise transfer the Property than are expressly provided in Article 8 nor to deprive Lender of any right to refuse to consent to any transaction referred to in this Article.
 
Section 20.10. SATISFACTION OR ASSIGNMENT OF MORTGAGE.  Upon payment in full of all sums secured hereby in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Note, this Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents, Lender shall, at no cost to Lender, deliver a satisfaction or release of this Security Instrument and any Uniform Commercial Code financing statements filed in connection with this Security Instrument, or, at Borrower’s request to be exercised in writing, an assignment, without representation, recourse or warranty, hereof, in either case in proper form for recording.  As a condition to any such satisfaction or assignment, Borrower covenants and agrees to pay Lender’s reasonable fees and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) in connection therewith, and all costs of recording any discharge or assignment in the proper official records.  Upon any such satisfaction or assignment, Lender shall, automatically and without the need for any further documentation, be absolutely and unconditionally released from any and all claims or liabilities in connection with the Loan.  In addition, Borrower hereby indemnifies and agrees to hold Lender harmless from and against any and all claims and liabilities arising out of the satisfaction or assignment hereof, such indemnification to survive any such satisfaction or assignment.
 
 
-56-

 
 
Section 20.11.   AMENDMENT AND RESTATEMENT.  This Security Instrument amends and restates the Original Mortgage.  This Security Instrument is a modification of Borrower’s obligation under the Original Mortgage and shall not constitute a satisfaction, termination, or discharge of the Original Mortgage or an extinguishment of the obligation evidenced thereby.  Upon execution and delivery of this Security Instrument, all of Borrower’s obligations under the Original Mortgage shall be deemed evidenced by this Security Instrument and there are no offsets, setoffs or counterclaims against payment of said amounts.
