Any such Net Proceeds in excess of [$100,000] shall be paid to and held by the Trustee in a separate insurance loss account within the Project Fund, for application of as much as may be necessary of the Net Proceeds to the payment of the costs of repair or restoration, either on completion thereof or as the work progresses, as directed by the Mortgagor. The Mortgagee may, prior to making payment from such loss account, require the Mortgagor to provide evidence that, or deposit with the Trustee moneys to be placed in such account so that, there will be adequate moneys available for such repair and restoration, including a contingency reserve satisfactory to the Mortgagee. The Trustee shall not be obligated to make any payment from such account if there exists any Event of Default hereunder. Any balance of the Net Proceeds (together with any investment income therefrom) held by the Trustee remaining after payment of all costs of such repair or restoration shall be paid to the Trustee for deposit into the Bond Fund for application as provided in the Agreement. As a condition to approval of any repair or restoration of the Project Facilities and the release of any Net Proceeds in excess of [$100,000] held by the Trustee for such purpose, the Mortgagee may, at the Mortgagor's expense, obtain the services of a construction consultant or consultants to advise the Mortgagee as to the adequacy of the plans and specifications, as-built value and utility of the proposed work, adequacy of funds available for such work and such other matters as the Trustee may require. The right of the Mortgagor to repair or restore the Project Facilities shall be subject to such terms and conditions as the Mortgagee or its construction consultants may reasonably impose. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Mortgagee and its construction consultants shall have the right to approve all plans and specifications, contractors, subcontractors, architects, engineers and suppliers and all construction contracts (including retaining provisions) and may require a fixed price contract and/or payment 23 and performance bonds as deemed necessary or desirable by the Mortgagee or its construction consultants. The Mortgagee and its construction consultants shall be entitled to such documentation, opinions, appraisals and other protections and assurances as may be customarily required by construction lenders or as they may otherwise reasonably require. Failure by the Mortgagor to fully satisfy all conditions and requirements for the repair or restoration of the Project Facilities within six months after occurrence of the casualty giving rise to the need therefor shall constitute an Event of Default hereunder. If, in lieu of repair or restoration, all Outstanding Bonds are to be redeemed pursuant to the Agreement, an amount equal to any Net Proceeds received by the Trustee prior to such prepayment shall (together with any investment income therefrom) be credited against the amount payable by the Mortgagor pursuant to the Agreement to effect such redemption. Section 5.3. Eminent Domain. If title to or the temporary use of the Project Site or any part thereof, shall be taken under the exercise of the power of eminent domain by any governmental body or by any person, firm or corporation acting under governmental authority, the Mortgagor will promptly give written notice thereof to the Mortgagee describing the nature and extent of such taking. Any Net Proceeds received from any award made in such eminent domain proceedings (or from any sale made by the Mortgagor and Trustee jointly under threat of condemnation) shall, if received prior to the release and discharge of this Mortgage, be paid to and held by the Trustee in a separate condemnation award account for application to one or more of the following purposes: (a) The modification of the Project Site and Project Facilities so that the Mortgagor may be able to conduct its business activities at the Project Site as nearly as practicable to the same manner as existed immediately prior to the exercise of the power of eminent domain with such changes or alterations, however, as the Mortgagor may deem necessary for proper operation of said activities. (b) The acquisition of additional land which shall be made a part of the Project Site or construction of other improvements suitable for the Mortgagor's operations on the Project Site (which improvements shall be made a part of the Project Facilities); provided, that such land and improvements shall be subject to no liens or encumbrances (other than the lien hereof and Permitted Encumbrances). (c) Payment into the Bond Fund to be used for the redemption of Bonds, in the manner and to the extent permitted by the Indenture.
