The rights of Grantee under this Deed to Secure Debt shall be separate, distinct and cumulative and none shall be given effect to the exclusion of the others. No act of Grantee shall be construed as an election to proceed under any one provision herein to the exclusion of any other provision. Grantee shall not be limited exclusively to the rights and remedies herein stated but shall be entitled to every right and remedy now or hereafter afforded at law or in equity.
Section 7.05 Right to Release Any Portion of the Property.

Section 16.04 Instrument is Deed to Secure Debt. The conveyance of those portions of the Property which are real property under the laws of the State of Georgia under and in accordance with this instrument is intended to operate as and is to be construed as a deed passing the title to such portions of the Property to Grantee and is made under those provisions of the existing laws of the State of Georgia relating to deeds to secure debt (including, e.g., O.C.G.A. §44-14-60), and is not a mortgage. It is also a security agreement granting a present and continuing security interest and security title in the portion of the Property constituting personal property or fixtures pursuant to the Uniform Commercial Code of the State of Georgia, and is given to secure the payment and performance of the following described obligations (collectively, the “Obligations”): (a) the Debt; (b) any and all additional advances made or costs or expenses incurred by Grantee to protect or preserve the Property or the security interest, lien and security title created by this Deed to Secure Debt, including the expense of any litigation to prosecute or defend the rights, lien and security title created hereby, or for taxes, assessments or insurance premiums as hereinafter provided, or for performance of any of Grantor’s obligations hereunder, or for any other purpose provided herein (whether or not the original Grantor remains the owner of the Property at the time such advances are made or costs or expenses incurred); and (c) any and all other indebtedness now or hereafter owing by Grantor to Grantee in connection with the Loan, however and whenever incurred or evidenced, whether expressed or implied, direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, or due or to become due, and all renewals, modifications, consolidations, replacements and extensions thereof. All references herein to a mortgage, to the extent that such an instrument would apply to property located in the State of Georgia, shall be deemed to be references to a deed to secure debt pursuant to those provisions of the existing laws of the State of Georgia relating to deeds to secure debt (including, e.g., O.C.G.A. §44-14-60).
Section 16.05 Non-judicial Foreclosure. Without diminishing or limiting the remedies set forth in Article VII hereof, Grantee may institute a non-judicial foreclosure pursuant to power of sale in accordance with Official Code of Georgia § 00-00-000 et seq., and other applicable laws, as amended, modified and/or superseded from time, with or without taking possession thereof, in accordance with the following: upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, sell the Property or any part of the Property at one or more public sale or sales at the usual place for conducting sales of the county in which the Property or any part of the Property is situated, to the highest bidder for cash, in order to pay the Obligations, and all expenses of sale and of all proceedings in connection therewith, including reasonable attorney’s fees, after advertising the time, place and terms of sale once a week for four (4) weeks immediately preceding such sale (but without regard to the number of days between the date on which the first such notice is published and the date on which such sale commences) in a newspaper in which sheriff’s sales are advertised in said county. Such advertisement so published shall be notice to Grantor, all other notice being hereby expressly waived by Grantor. At any such public sale, Grantee may execute and deliver to the purchaser a conveyance of the Property or any part of the Property (or interest therein) in fee simple, or to the full extent of Grantor’s interest therein, with full warranties of title (or without warranties if the Grantee shall
22
so elect), and to this end, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Grantor hereby constitutes and appoints Grantee the agent and attorney-in-fact of Grantor to make such sale and conveyance, and thereby to divest Grantor of all right, title, equity and equity of redemption that Grantor may have in and to the Property (or such part or lot thereof or interest therein) and to vest the same in the purchaser or purchasers at such sale or sales, and all acts and doings of said agent and attorney-in-fact are hereby ratified and confirmed, and any recitals in said conveyance or conveyances as to facts essential to a valid sale shall be binding and conclusive upon Grantor and shall be presumptive evidence that all preliminary acts prerequisite to any such sale and conveyance were in all aspects duly complied with. The aforesaid power of sale and agency hereby granted are coupled with an interest and are irrevocable by death or otherwise, are granted as cumulative of the other remedies provided hereby or by applicable laws for collection of the Obligations secured hereby and shall not be exhausted by one exercise thereof but may be exercised multiple times until full payment of all of the Obligations secured hereby. In the event of any such foreclosure sale under this Deed to Secure Debt by virtue of exercise of the powers herein granted, or pursuant to any order in any judicial proceedings or in any other manner as may at any time be authorized under the laws of the State of Georgia, the Property may be sold as an entirety or in separate parcels and in such manner or order as Grantee in its discretion may elect, and if Grantee so elects, Grantee may sell the personal property covered by this Deed to Secure Debt at one or more separate sales in any manner permitted by the UCC, and one or more exercises of the powers herein granted shall not extinguish nor exhaust such powers, until the entire Property are sold or the Obligations are paid in full. If the Debt is now or hereafter further secured by any chattel mortgages, pledges, contracts of guaranty, assignments of lease or other security instruments, Grantee may at its option exhaust the remedies granted under any of said security either concurrently or independently, Grantee may determine in its discretion. In the event of any such foreclosure sale by Grantee, Grantor shall be deemed a tenant holding over and shall forthwith deliver possession to the purchaser or purchasers at such sale or be summarily dispossessed according to provisions of laws applicable to tenants holding over. In addition to and cumulative of the remedies provided in this Section 16.05, the Grantee may foreclose or cause to be foreclosed the lien, security title and security interest of this Deed to Secure Debt, in whole or in part, through judicial foreclosure or in any other manner as may at any time be authorized under the laws of the State. Grantee may adjourn from time to time any sale by it to be made under or by virtue of this Deed to Secure Debt by announcement at the time and place appointed for such sale or for such adjourned sale or sales to the fullest extent permitted by applicable laws; and, except as otherwise provided by any provision of applicable laws, Grantee, without further notice or publication, may make such sale at the time and place to which the same shall be so adjourned. Upon the completion of any sale or sales by Grantee, under or by virtue of this Section 16.05, Grantee, or an officer of any court empowered to do so, shall execute and deliver to the accepted purchaser or purchasers a good and sufficient instrument, or good and sufficient instruments, conveying, assigning and transferring all estate, right, title and interest in and to the property and rights sold. Grantee is hereby irrevocably appointed the true and lawful attorney of Grantor, in its same and stead, to make all necessary conveyances, assignments, transfers and deliveries of the Property or parts, lots or interests thereof or therein and rights so sold and for that purpose Grantee may execute all necessary instruments of conveyance, assignment and transfer, and may substitute one or more persons with like power, Grantor hereby ratifying and confirming all that its said attorney or such substitute or substitutes shall lawfully do by virtue hereof. Any such sale or sales made under or
23
by virtue of this Section 16.05, whether made under the power or sale herein granted or under or by virtue of judicial proceedings or of a judgment or decree of foreclosure and sale, shall operate to divest all the estate, right, title, interest, claim and demand whatsoever, whether at law or in equity, of Grantor in and to the properties and rights so sold, and shall be a perpetual bar both at law and in equity against Grantor and against any and all persons claiming or who may claim the same, or any part thereof from, through or under Grantor. Upon any sale made under or by virtue of this Section 16.05 (whether made under the power or sale herein granted or under or by virtue of judicial proceedings or of a judgment or decree of foreclosure and sale) Grantee may bid for and acquire the Property or any part or lot thereof (or any interest in any of the foregoing) and in lieu of paying cash therefor may make settlement for the purchase price by crediting upon the Obligations the net sales price after deducting therefrom the expenses of the sale and the costs of the action and any other sums which Grantee is authorized to deduct under this Deed to Secure Debt and in accordance with applicable laws, and in such event, this Deed to Secure Debt, and the other documents evidencing expenditures secured by this Deed to Secure Debt may be presented to the person or persons conducting such sale in order that the amount so used or applied may be credited against the Obligations as having been paid. No recovery of any judgment by Grantee and no levy of an execution under any judgment upon the Property or any part or lot thereof (or any interest in any of the foregoing) or upon any other property of Grantor shall affect in any manner or to any extent, the liens and security titles of this Deed to Secure Debt upon the Property or any part or lot thereof (or interest in any of the foregoing) or any liens, security titles, rights, powers and remedies of Grantee hereunder, but such liens, security titles, rights, powers and remedies of Grantee shall continue unimpaired as before. Grantor agrees to the fullest extent permitted by applicable laws, that upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, neither Grantor nor anyone claiming through or under it shall or will set up, claim or seek to take advantage of any appraisement, valuation, stay, extension, homestead, exception or redemption laws now or hereafter in force, in order to prevent or hinder the enforcement or foreclosure of this Deed to Secure Debt, or the absolute sale of the Property or any part of lot thereof (or any interest in any of the foregoing), or the final and absolute putting into possession thereof, immediately after such sale, of the purchasers thereat, and Grantor, for itself and all who may at any time claim through or under it, hereby waives to the full extent that it may lawfully so do, the benefit of all such laws, and any and all right to have the assets comprised in the security intended to be created hereby marshaled upon any foreclosure of the lien or title hereof. Grantee, at its option, is authorized to foreclose this Deed to Secure Debt and the failure to make any tenants of the Property parties to any such foreclosure proceedings and to foreclose their rights will not be, nor be asserted to be by Grantor, a defense to any proceedings instituted by Grantee to collect the sums secured hereby. In case Grantee shall have proceeded to enforce any right, power or remedy under this Deed to Secure Debt by foreclosure, entry or otherwise or in the event Grantee commences advertising of the intended exercise of the sale under power provided hereunder, and such proceeding or advertisement shall have been withdrawn, discontinued or abandoned for any reason, then in every such case (i) Grantor and Grantee shall be restored to their former positions and rights, (ii) all rights, powers and remedies of Grantee shall continue as if no such proceeding had been taken, (iii) each and every Event of Default declared or occurring prior or subsequent to such withdrawal, discontinuance or abandonment shall be deemed to be a continuing Event of Default (unless the same shall have been cured by or on behalf of Grantor, or shall have been expressly waived or withdrawn by Grantee), and (iv) neither this Deed to Secure Debt, nor any other Loan Document nor the Debt shall be or shall be deemed to have
24
been reinstated or otherwise affected by such withdrawal, discontinuance or abandonment; and Grantor hereby expressly waives the benefit of any statute or rule or law now provided, or which may hereafter be provided, which would produce a result contrary to or in conflict with this sentence. In the event that Grantor or any person claiming by, through or under Grantor shall transfer or fail to surrender possession of the Property after any sale thereof, then Grantor or such person shall be deemed tenant at sufferance of the purchaser at such sale, subject to eviction by means of forcible entry and unlawful detainer proceedings, or subject to any other right or remedy available, hereunder or under applicable law.
Section 16.06 Loan Maturity and Maturity Date. The original principal amount of the Loan is $55,000,000, and the Loan is schedule to mature on the Stated Maturity Date, which Stated Maturity Date is January 6, 2022.
Section 16.07 Release. Should the Obligations be paid according to the terms and effect thereof when the same shall become due and payable, and should Grantor perform all covenants herein contained in a timely manner, then this Deed to Secure Debt shall be cancelled and surrendered.
Section 16.08 Non-Residential Status of Property. Grantor represents and warrants to Grantee that neither all of the Property nor any part thereof is to be used as a dwelling place by Grantor at the time this Deed to Secure Debt is entered into and, accordingly, the notice requirements of O.C.G.A. § 44-14-162.2 shall not be applicable to any exercise of the power of sale contained in this Deed to Secure Debt.
Section 16.09 Commercial Transaction. The interest of Grantee under this Deed to Secure Debt and the liability and obligation of Grantor for the payment of the Secured Obligations arise from a “commercial transaction” within the meaning of O.C.G.A. § 44-14-260(1). Accordingly, pursuant to O.C.G.A. § 00-00-000, Grantor waives any and all rights which Grantor may have to notice prior to seizure by Grantee of any interest in personal property of Grantor which constitutes part of the Property, whether such seizure is by writ of possession or otherwise.
Section 16.10 Waiver of Appraisement, Valuation, Stay, Extension, and Redemption Laws. GRANTOR AGREES TO THE FULL EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW THAT IN CASE OF AN EVENT OF DEFAULT ON ITS PART HEREUNDER, NEITHER GRANTOR NOR ANYONE CLAIMING THROUGH OR UNDER IT SHALL OR WILL SET UP, CLAIM OR SEEK TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF ANY APPRAISEMENT, VALUATION, STAY, EXTENSION OR REDEMPTION LAWS NOW OR HEREAFTER IN FORCE, IN ORDER TO PREVENT OR HINDER THE ENFORCEMENT OR FORECLOSURE OF THIS SECURITY DEED, OR THE ABSOLUTE SALE OF THE PROPERTY OR THE FINAL AND ABSOLUTE PUTTING INTO POSSESSION THEREOF, IMMEDIATELY AFTER SUCH SALE, OR THE PURCHASERS THEREAT, AND GRANTOR, FOR ITSELF AND ALL WHO MAY AT ANY TIME CLAIM THROUGH OR UNDER IT, HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULL EXTENT THAT IT MAY LAWFULLY SO DO, THE BENEFIT OF ALL SUCH LAWS, AND ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO HAVE THE ASSETS COMPROMISING THE PROPERTY MARSHALLED UPON ANY FORECLOSURE OF THE LIEN OR SECURITY TITLE HEREOF AND AGREES THAT GRANTEE OR ANY COURT HAVING JURISDICTION TO FORECLOSE SUCH LIEN OR SECURITY TITLE MAY SELL THE PROPERTY IN PART OR AS AN ENTIRETY.
