This Mortgage is made on August 31, 2006

BETWEEN the Borrower(s) 195 SPRING VALLEY ASSOCIATES, LLC, a New Jersey limited liability company with an address at 155 North Dean Street, Englewood, New Jersey,

AND the Lender(s) JACLYN, INC. with an address at 5801 Jefferson Street, West New York, New Jersey.

        WHEREAS, the Borrower is the owner of 195-197 West Spring Valley Avenue, Maywood, New Jersey (hereinafter the “Property”) described in this Mortgage; and

        WHEREAS, the Borrower has entered into a Promissory Note of even date herewith, in the principal amount of Two Million Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($2,200,000) (the “Note”), which evidences a loan (the “Loan”) made by Lender to the Borrower, on the Maturity Date; and

        WHEREAS, the Borrower has agreed to grant security to the Lender for all of Borrower’s obligations under the Note; and

        WHEREAS, in order to induce the Lender to accept the Note from the Borrower, the Borrower has agreed to execute and deliver this Mortgage as additional collateral security for the payment of Borrower’s obligations;

        NOW THEREFORE, for the securing of the payment by Borrower of all amounts owing under the Note, and all interest accrued thereon, the Borrower has mortgaged and does mortgage to the Lender ALL that certain property located in the Borough of Maywood, County of Bergen and State of New Jersey commonly known as 195-197 West Spring Valley Avenue and more fully described on Schedule A attached hereto. The Property includes: (a) the land; (b) all buildings that are now, or will be, located on the land; (c) all fixtures that are now, or will be, attached to the land or building(s); (d) all condemnation awards and insurance proceeds relating to the land and building(s); and (e) all other rights that the Borrower has or will have as the owner of the Property.

        Rights Given to the Lender. The Borrower mortgages the Property to the Lender. This means that the Borrower gives the Lender those rights stated in this Mortgage and also those rights the law gives to lenders who hold mortgages on real property. When the Borrower pays all amounts due to the Lender under the Note and this Mortgage, the Lender’s rights under this Mortgage will end. The Lender will then cancel this Mortgage at the Lender’s expense.

        Promises.        The Borrower makes the following promises to the Lender:


  1.     Note and Mortgage. To comply with all of the terms of the Note and this Mortgage.

  2.    Payments. To make all payments required by the Note and this Mortgage.

  3.    Ownership. The Borrower warrants title to the Property (N.J.S.A. 46:9-2). This means the Borrower owns the Property and will defend its ownership against all claims.

  4.    Liens and Taxes. The Borrower will pay all liens, taxes, assessments, and other government charges made against the Property when due. The Borrower will not claim any deduction from the taxable value of the Property because of this Mortgage. The Borrower will not claim any credit against the principal and interest payable under the Note and this Mortgage for any taxes paid on the Property.

  5.    Insurance. The Borrower must maintain extended coverage insurance on the Property. The insurance companies, policies, amounts and types of coverage must be acceptable to the Lender. The Borrower will notify the Lender in the event of any substantial loss or damage. The Lender may then settle the claim on the Borrower’s behalf if the Borrower fails to do so. All payments from the insurance company must be payable to the Lender under a “standard mortgage clause” in the insurance policy. The Lender may use any proceeds to repair and restore the Property or to reduce the amount due under the Note and this Mortgage. This will not delay the due date for any payment under the Note and this Mortgage.

  6.    Repairs. The Borrower will keep the Property in good repair, neither damaging nor abandoning it. The Borrower will allow the Lender to inspect the Property upon reasonable notice.

  7.    Statement of Amount Due. Upon request of the Lender, the Borrower will certify to the Lender in writing: (a) the amount due on the Note and this Mortgage, and (b) whether or not the Borrower has any defense to the obligations under the Note and this Mortgage.

  8.     Rent. The Borrower will not accept rent for more than one month in advance.

  9.     Lawful Use. The Borrower will use the Property in compliance with all laws, ordinances and other requirements of any governmental authority.

        Eminent Domain. All or part of the Property may be taken by a government entity for public use. If this occurs, the Borrower agree that any compensation be given to the Lender. The Lender may use this to repair and restore the Property or to reduce the amount owed on the


Note and this Mortgage. This will not delay the due date for any further payment due the Note and this Mortgage. Any remaining balance will be paid to the Borrower.

        Payments Made for Borrower(s). If the Borrower does not make all of the repairs or payments as agreed in this Mortgage, the Lender may do so for it. The cost of these repairs and payments will be added to the principal, will bear interest at the same rate provided in the Note and will be repaid to the Lender upon demand.

        Events of Default. Each of the following shall constitute an event of default under this Mortgage (each, an “Event of Default”):

If the Borrower dissolves or ceases operations.


                 8.       Remedies. In case one or more Events of Default shall have occurred, the Lender shall have the following rights and remedies:

                  A.        The Lender may, by written notice to the Borrower, declare all amounts outstanding (with accrued interest thereon) with interest at the Default Rate from the date of the Event of Default to be immediately due and payable, whereupon the same shall become due and payable forthwith without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Borrower.

                 B.        To take any action at law or in equity to collect the payments or to enforce the performance and observance of the obligations, agreements and covenants of the Borrower contained in this Note or the Mortgage and Security Agreement.

                  C.        To institute an action of mortgage foreclosure, or take other action as the law may allow, at law or in equity, for the enforcement of this Note, and proceed therein to final judgment and execution for the entire unpaid balance of principal plus interest, plus costs of suit, interest and reasonable attorneys’ fees. In case of any sale of the Mortgaged Premises by virtue of judicial proceedings, the Mortgaged Premises may be sold in one parcel and as an entirety or in such parcels, manner or order as the Lender in its reasonable discretion may elect. The Lender shall be required to make any all all tenants parties defendant to a foreclosure proceeding.

                 All proceeds received from the sale or other disposition of the whole or any part of the Mortgaged Premises shall be applied as follows: (i) first, to the payment of all fees, costs and expenses incurred by the Lender in connection with such sale or disposition; (ii) second, to the payment in full of the loan; and (iii) third, the balance, if any, of such proceeds remaining after payment in full of the foregoing, to the Borrower or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct.

                Without limiting the foregoing, in exercising its remedies upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Lender (i) shall not be responsible or liable for any shortage, discrepancy, damage, loss or destruction of any part of the Mortgaged Premises regardless of the cause thereof unless the same shall happen through its gross negligence or willful misconduct; (ii) shall be entitled to the appointment (without notice and without proof of diminution in value of the Mortgaged


Premises) of a receiver to take possession of all or any portion of the Mortgaged Premises and to exercise such powers as the court shall confer upon the receiver; and (iii) generally may perform all acts necessary or proper to carry out the intention of this Note, as fully and completely as though the Lender were the absolute owner of the Mortgaged Premises for all purposes, and the Borrower hereby ratifies and confirms all that the Lender shall do by virtue of this grant of power.

                The rights and remedies of the Lender hereunder shall be in addition to every other right and remedy now and hereafter provided by law; the rights and remedies of the Lender shall be cumulative and not exclusive one of the other; the Lender may exercise the same at such times, in such order, to such extent and as often as Lender deems advisable, and without regard to whether the exercise of one precedes, concurs with, or succeeds the exercise of another; no delay or omission by the Lender in exercising a right or remedy shall exhaust or impair the same, or constitute a waiver of, or acquiescence in, the Event of Default; and no waiver of an Event of Default by the Lender shall extend to or affect any other Event of Default or impair any right or remedy with respect thereto.

                 9.        Miscellaneous.

                A.       Notices. All notices to the Borrower shall be directed to the address set forth on the first page hereof, or at such other address as the Borrower shall designate to the Lender, and all notices to the Lender shall be directed to the address set forth on the first page hereof, or at such other address as the Lender shall designate to the Borrower, and all notices shall be in writing and shall be mailed by certified mail, return receipt requested, telexed, telecopied, telegraphed, hand delivered or sent by Federal Express or other similar reputable overnight delivery service providing for receipt of delivery, and shall be deemed given when received.

                 F.       Usury. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the obligation of the Borrower under this Note shall be subject to the limitation that payments of interest shall not be required to the extent that receipt of any such payment by the Lender would be contrary to provisions of law applicable to the Lender limiting the maximum rate of interest which may be charged or collected by the Lender.

                 K.         Validity of Loan. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, if from any circumstances whatever fulfillment of any provision of this Note at the time performance of said provision shall be due shall involve transcending the limit of validity prescribed by the usury statutes of the State of New Jersey or any other law of the State of New Jersey, then ipsofacto the obligation to be fulfilled shall be reduced to the limit of such validity so that in no event shall exaction be possible under this Note in excess of the limit of such validity.
