PROPERTY INSURANCE MORTGAGE CLAUSE
(WITHOUT CONTRIBUTION)
PART A - AGREEMENT

Loss or damage, if any, under this policy, shall be payable, first to (1)
,
first mortgagee, and balance on, if any, to (2)
,
,

second mortgagee, and (3)
third mortgage, as their respective interests may appear under any present or future mortgages, with the right to grant partial release of
mortgage without notice to the insurance company, and this insurance, as to the interest of the mortgagees only therein, shall not be
invalidated by an act or neglect of the mortgagor or owner of the within-described property, nor by any foreclosure or other
proceedings or notice of sale relating to the property, nor by any change in the title or ownership of the property, nor by the
occupation of the premises for purposes more hazardous than are permitted by this policy; provided that the mortgagees shall notify
the insurance company of any change of ownership or occupancy or increase of hazard which shall come to the knowledge of said
mortgagees and, unless permitted by this policy, shall be noted thereon and the mortgagees shall, on demand, pay the premium for
such increased hazard for the term of the use thereof; otherwise this policy shall be null and void.
This insurance company reserves the right to cancel this policy at any time as provided by its terms, but in such case this policy shall
continue in force for the benefit only of the mortgagees for 10 days after notice to the mortgagees of such cancellation and shall then
cease, except that if the cancellation notice is issued for nonpayment of premium, the insurance company shall continue the policy in
force upon notification from the mortgagees of their intent to pay the premium for the mortgagor or owner.
Whenever the insurance company shall pay the mortgagees any sum for loss or damage under this policy, and shall claim that, as to
the mortgagor or owner, no liability therefore existed, the insurance company, to the extent of such payment, shall be thereupon
legally subrogated to all the rights of the party to whom such payment shall be made, under all securities held as collateral to the
mortgage debt, or may at its option, pay to the mortgagees the whole principal due or to grow due on the mortgage, with interest
accrued thereon to the date of such payment, and shall thereupon receive a full assignment and transfer without recourse of the
mortgage and of all such other securities; but no subrogation shall impair the right of the mortgagees to recover the full amount of its
claim.
This mortgage clause supersedes any other mortgage clause in or attached to the policy.
