TITLE TO COLLATERAL; PERMITTED LIENS Borrower is now, and will at all times in the future be, the sole owner of all the Collateral, except for items of Equipment which are leased by Borrower. The Collateral now is and will remain free and clear of any and all liens, charges, security interests, encumbrances and adverse claims, except for Permitted Liens. Silicon now has, and will continue to have, a first-priority perfected and enforceable security interest in all of the Collateral, subject only to the Permitted Liens, and Borrower will at all times defend Silicon and the Collateral against all claims of others. None of the Collateral now is or will be affixed to any real property in such a manner, or with such intent, as to become a fixture. Borrower is not and will not become a lessee under any real property lease pursuant to which the lessor may obtain any rights in any of the Collateral and no such lease now prohibits, restrains, impairs or will prohibit, restrain or impair Borrower's right to remove any Collateral from the leased premises. Whenever any Collateral is located upon premises in which any third party has an interest (whether as owner, mortgagee, beneficiary under a deed of trust, lien or otherwise), Borrower shall, whenever requested by Silicon, use its best efforts to cause such third party to execute and deliver to Silicon, in form acceptable to Silicon, such waivers and subordinations as Silicon shall specify, so as to ensure that Silicon's rights in the Collateral are, and will continue to be, superior to the rights of any such third party. Borrower will keep in full force and effect, and will comply with all the terms of, any lease of real property where any of the Collateral now or in the future may be located.
After Acquired Real Property (i) Upon the acquisition by any Loan Party after the date hereof of any fee interest in any real property (wherever located) (each such interest being a “New Facility”) with a Current Value (as defined below) in excess of $1,000,000, promptly so notify the Collateral Agent, setting forth with specificity a description of the interest acquired, the location of the real property, any structures or improvements thereon and either an appraisal or such Loan Party’s good-faith estimate of the current value of such real property (for purposes of this Section, the “Current Value”). The Collateral Agent shall notify such Loan Party whether it intends to require a Mortgage and the other Real Property Deliverables. Upon receipt of such notice requesting a Mortgage, the Person that has acquired such New Facility shall promptly furnish to the Collateral Agent each of the applicable Real Property Deliverables, reasonably requested by the Collateral Agent. The Borrowers shall pay all fees and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, and all title insurance charges and premiums, in connection with each Loan Party’s obligations under this Section 7.01(o).
(ii) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrative Agent shall not enter into any Mortgage in respect of any improved real property acquired by any Loan Party after the Closing Date until (1) (a) if such improved real property is not located in a “special flood hazard area”, the date that is five (5) Business Days or (b) if such improved real property is located in a “special flood hazard area”, the date that occurs 14 days after the Administrative Agent has delivered to the Lenders (which may be delivered electronically) the following documents in respect of such real property: (i) a completed flood hazard determination from a third party vendor; (ii) if such real property is located in a “special flood hazard area”, (A) a notification to the applicable Loan Party of that fact and (if applicable) notification to the applicable Loan Party that flood insurance coverage is not available and (B) evidence of the receipt by the applicable Loan Party of such notice; and (iii) if such notice is required to be provided to the applicable Loan Party and flood insurance is available in the community in which such real property is located, evidence of required flood insurance.
Excluded Collateral Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this ss.2, such grant of security interest shall not extend to, and the term "Collateral" shall not include, any chattel paper and general intangibles which are now or hereafter held by the Company as licensee, lessee or otherwise, to the extent that (i) such chattel paper and general intangibles are not assignable or capable of being encumbered as a matter of law or under the terms of the license, lease or other agreement applicable thereto (but solely to the extent that any such restriction shall be enforceable under applicable law), without the consent of the licensor or lessor thereof or other applicable party thereto and (ii) such consent has not been obtained; provided, however, that the foregoing grant of security interest shall extend to, and the term "Collateral" shall include, (1) any and all proceeds of such chattel paper and general intangibles to the extent that the assignment or encumbering of such proceeds is not so restricted and (2) upon any such licensor, lessor or other applicable party consent with respect to any such otherwise excluded chattel paper or general intangibles being obtained, thereafter such chattel paper or general intangibles as well as any and all proceeds thereof that might have theretofore have been excluded from such grant of a security interest and the term "Collateral."
Permitted Liens; Title Insurance Each Mortgaged Property securing a Mortgage Loan is covered by an American Land Title Association loan title insurance policy or a comparable form of loan title insurance policy approved for use in the applicable jurisdiction (or, if such policy is yet to be issued, by a pro forma policy, a preliminary title policy or a “marked up” commitment, in each case with escrow instructions and binding on the title insurer) (the “Title Policy”) in the original principal amount of such Mortgage Loan (or with respect to a Mortgage Loan secured by multiple properties, an amount equal to at least the allocated loan amount with respect to the Title Policy for each such property) after all advances of principal (including any advances held in escrow or reserves), that insures for the benefit of the owner of the indebtedness secured by the Mortgage, the first priority lien of the Mortgage (which lien secures the related Whole Loan, in the case of a Mortgage Loan that is part of a Whole Loan), which lien is subject only to (a) the lien of current real property taxes, water charges, sewer rents and assessments not yet due and payable; (b) covenants, conditions and restrictions, rights of way, easements and other matters of public record specifically identified in the Title Policy; (c) the exceptions (general and specific) and exclusions set forth in such Title Policy; (d) other matters to which like properties are commonly subject; (e) the rights of tenants (as tenants only) under leases (including subleases) pertaining to the related Mortgaged Property; (f) if the related Mortgage Loan constitutes a Crossed Underlying Loan, the lien of the Mortgage for another Mortgage Loan contained in the same Crossed Mortgage Loan Group, and (g) condominium declarations of record and identified in such Title Policy, provided that none of clauses (a) through (g), individually or in the aggregate, materially and adversely interferes with the value or principal use of the Mortgaged Property, the security intended to be provided by such Mortgage, or the current ability of the related Mortgaged Property to generate net cash flow sufficient to service the related Mortgage Loan or the Mortgagor’s ability to pay its obligations when they become due (collectively, the “Permitted Encumbrances”). For purposes of clause (a) of the immediately preceding sentence, any such taxes, assessments and other charges shall not be considered due and payable until the date on which interest and/or penalties would be payable thereon. Except as contemplated by clause (f) of the second preceding sentence none of the Permitted Encumbrances are mortgage liens that are senior to or coordinate and co-equal with the lien of the related Mortgage. Such Title Policy (or, if it has yet to be issued, the coverage to be provided thereby) is in full force and effect, all premiums thereon have been paid and no claims have been made by the Mortgage Loan Seller thereunder and no claims have been paid thereunder. Neither the Mortgage Loan Seller, nor to the Mortgage Loan Seller’s knowledge, any other holder of the Mortgage Loan, has done, by act or omission, anything that would materially impair the coverage under such Title Policy. Each Title Policy contains no exclusion for, or affirmatively insures (except for any Mortgaged Property located in a jurisdiction where such affirmative insurance is not available in which case such exclusion may exist), (a) that the Mortgaged Property shown on the survey is the same as the property legally described in the Mortgage and (b) to the extent that the Mortgaged Property consists of two or more adjoining parcels, such parcels are contiguous.
After-Acquired Collateral (a) Unless otherwise directed by an Act of Required Debtholders pursuant to the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, with respect to any property acquired after the date of this Indenture by the Company or any Grantor (other than any property described in clauses (b)-(d) of this Section 4.15) as to which the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, does not have a perfected Lien, the Company and each applicable Grantor shall promptly:
(1) execute and deliver to the Collateral Agent such amendments to the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement or such other documents as the Collateral Agent deems necessary or advisable to grant to the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, a security interest in such property; and
(2) take all actions necessary or advisable to grant to the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, a perfected first priority security interest in such property, including the filing of Uniform Commercial Code financing statements in such jurisdictions as may be required by the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement or by law or as may be reasonably requested by the Collateral Agent.
(b) With respect to any fee interest in any real property having a value (together with improvements thereof) of at least $5,000,000 acquired after the date of this Indenture by the Company or any Guarantor (other than any such real property subject to a Permitted Lien which precludes the granting of a Mortgage thereon), within 60 days after the creation or acquisition thereof, unless otherwise directed by an Act of Required Debtholders, the Company and each applicable Guarantor shall:
(1) execute and deliver a first priority Mortgage or where appropriate under the circumstances, an amendment to an existing Mortgage, in each case in favor of the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, covering such real property,
(2) if requested by the Collateral Agent, provide the Secured Parties with (A) either (i) title insurance covering such real property in an amount at least equal to the purchase price of such real property (or such other amount as shall be reasonably specified by the Collateral Agent) in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent, as well as a current ALTA survey thereof, together with a surveyor’s certificate (only with respect to any power plant or any other real property for which an ALTA survey was obtained when such property was acquired) or (ii) where an amendment to an existing Mortgage has been delivered pursuant to clause (1) instead of a Mortgage, an endorsement to the existing title policy adding such property as an insured parcel, and (B) any consents or estoppels reasonably deemed necessary or advisable by the Collateral Agent in connection with such Mortgage or Mortgage amendment (to the extent obtainable using commercially reasonable efforts), each of the foregoing in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent; and
(3) if requested by the Collateral Agent, deliver to the Collateral Agent legal opinions relating to the matters described in clauses (1) and (2) above, which opinions shall be in form and substance, and from counsel, reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent.
(c) With respect to any new Subsidiary (other than an Excluded Subsidiary) created or acquired after the date of this Indenture by the Company or any Guarantor (which, for the purposes of this paragraph (c), shall include any existing Subsidiary that ceases to be an Excluded Subsidiary), unless otherwise directed by an Act of Required Debtholders, within 60 days of the creation or acquisition thereof the Company and each applicable Guarantor shall:
(1) execute and deliver to the Collateral Agent such amendments to the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement as the Collateral Agent deems necessary or advisable to grant to the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, a perfected first priority security interest in the Capital Stock of such new Subsidiary that is owned by the Company or any Guarantor,
(2) deliver to the Collateral Agent the certificates representing such Capital Stock, together with undated stock powers, in blank, executed and delivered by a duly authorized officer of the Company or the relevant Guarantor,
(3) cause such new Subsidiary (A) to become a party to the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, (B) to take such actions necessary or advisable to grant to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties a perfected first priority security interest in the Collateral described in the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement with respect to such new Subsidiary, including the filing of Uniform Commercial Code financing statements in such jurisdictions as may be required by the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement or by law or as may be requested by the Collateral Agent and (C) to deliver to the Collateral Agent a customary closing certificate of such Subsidiary, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent, with appropriate insertions and attachments, and
(4) if requested by the Collateral Agent, deliver to the Collateral Agent legal opinions relating to the matters described above, which opinions shall be in form and substance, and from counsel, reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent.

(1) execute and deliver to the Collateral Agent such amendments to the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement as the Collateral Agent deems necessary or advisable to grant to the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, a perfected first priority security interest in the Capital Stock of such new Subsidiary that is owned by the Company or such Guarantor (provided that in no event shall more than 65% of the total outstanding voting Capital Stock of any such new Subsidiary be required to be so pledged),
(2) if commercially reasonable, deliver to the Collateral Agent the certificates representing such Capital Stock, together with undated stock powers, in blank, executed and delivered by a duly authorized officer of the Company or the relevant Guarantor, and take such other action as may be necessary or, in the opinion of the Collateral Agent, desirable to perfect the Collateral Agent’s security interest therein, and
(3) if requested by the Collateral Agent, deliver to the Collateral Agent legal opinions relating to the matters described above, which opinions shall be in form and substance, and from counsel, reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent.
Disposition of Collateral Such Grantor will not sell, lease or otherwise dispose of the Collateral owned by it except for dispositions specifically permitted pursuant to Section 6.05 of the Credit Agreement.
Borrowing Base Properties (a) Except where the failure to comply with any of the following would not have a Material Adverse Effect, each of Parent and Borrower shall, and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause each other Loan Party or the applicable tenant, to:
(b) Pay all real estate and personal property taxes, assessments, water rates or sewer rents, ground rents, maintenance charges, impositions, and any other charges, including vault charges and license fees for the use of vaults, chutes and similar areas adjoining any Borrowing Base Property, now or hereafter levied or assessed or imposed against any Borrowing Base Property or any part thereof (except those which are being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings diligently conducted).

(e) Cause each other Loan Party to, to the extent owned and controlled by a Loan Party, preserve, protect, renew, extend and retain all material rights and privileges granted for or applicable to each Borrowing Base Property.
Excluded Property Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 2.1, the property, assets, rights and interests set forth in this Section 2.2 (the “Excluded Property”) are excluded from the Property:
Certain After-Acquired Collateral Borrowers shall promptly notify Agent in writing if, after the Closing Date, any Borrower obtains any interest in any Collateral consisting of Deposit Accounts, Chattel Paper, Documents, Instruments, Intellectual Property, Investment Property or Letter-of-Credit Rights and, upon Agent’s request, shall promptly take such actions as Agent deems appropriate to effect Agent’s duly perfected, first priority Lien upon such Collateral, including obtaining any appropriate possession, control agreement or Lien Waiver. If any Collateral is in the possession of a third party, at Agent’s request, Borrowers shall obtain an acknowledgment that such third party holds the Collateral for the benefit of Agent.
Permitted Liens Create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any Lien upon or with respect to any of its Property, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, file or authorize the filing under the Uniform Commercial Code or any Requirement of Law of any jurisdiction, a financing statement (or the equivalent thereof) that names it or any of its Subsidiaries as debtor; sign any security agreement authorizing any secured party thereunder to file such financing statement (or the equivalent thereof) other than, as to all of the above, the following (collectively, "Permitted Liens"):
