By executing and delivering this Security Instrument, Individual Borrower hereby grants to Lender, as security for the Obligations (hereinafter defined), a security interest in the Fixtures, the Equipment and the Personal Property to the full extent that the Fixtures, the Equipment and the Personal Property may be subject to the Uniform Commercial Code (said portion of the Property so subject to the Uniform Commercial Code being called the “Collateral”). If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, Lender, in addition to any other rights and remedies which it may have, shall have and may exercise immediately and without demand, any and all rights and remedies granted to a secured party upon default under the Uniform Commercial Code, including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the right to take possession of the Collateral or any part thereof, and to take such other measures as Lender may deem necessary for the care, protection and preservation of the Collateral. Upon request or demand of Lender after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Individual Borrower shall, at its expense, assemble the Collateral and make it available to Lender at a convenient place (at the Land if tangible property) reasonably acceptable to Lender. Individual Borrower shall pay to Lender on demand any and all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, including reasonable legal expenses and attorneys’ fees, incurred or paid by Lender in protecting its interest in the
5
Collateral and in enforcing its rights hereunder with respect to the Collateral after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default. Any notice of sale, disposition or other intended action by Lender with respect to the Collateral sent to Individual Borrower in accordance with the provisions hereof at least ten (10) Business Days prior to such action, shall, except as otherwise provided by applicable law, constitute reasonable notice to Individual Borrower. The proceeds of any disposition of the Collateral, or any part thereof, may, except as otherwise required by applicable law, be applied by Lender to the payment of the Debt in such priority and proportions as Lender in its discretion shall deem proper. Individual Borrower’s (debtor’s) principal place of business is as set forth on page one hereof and the address of Lender (secured party) is as set forth on page one hereof.
Section 1.4 Fixture Filing. Certain of the Property is or will become “fixtures” (as that term is defined in the Uniform Commercial Code) on the Land, and this Security Instrument, upon being filed for record in the real estate records of the city or county wherein such fixtures are situated, shall operate also as a financing statement filed as a fixture filing in accordance with the applicable provisions of said Uniform Commercial Code upon such of the Property that is or may become fixtures.
Section 1.5 Pledges of Monies Held. Individual Borrower hereby pledges to Lender all of its right, title and interest in and to any and all monies now or hereafter held by Lender or on behalf of Lender in connection with the Loan, including, without limitation, any sums deposited in the Lockbox Account, the Cash Management Account, the Reserve Funds and Net Proceeds, as additional security for the Obligations until expended or applied as provided in the Loan Documents.
CONDITIONS TO GRANT
TO HAVE AND TO HOLD the above granted and described Property unto and to the use and benefit of Lender and its successors and assigns, forever;
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, these presents are upon the express condition that, if Borrower shall well and truly pay to Lender the Debt at the time and in the manner provided in the Note and the Loan Agreement, shall well and truly perform the Other Obligations (hereafter defined) and shall well and truly abide by and comply with each and every covenant and condition set forth herein and in the Note, the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents, these presents and the estate hereby granted shall cease, terminate and be void; provided, however, that Individual Borrower’s obligation to indemnify and hold harmless Lender pursuant to the provisions hereof shall, to the extent expressly so provided, survive any such payment or release.

The relationship between Individual Borrower and Lender is solely that of debtor and creditor, and Lender has no fiduciary or other special relationship with Individual Borrower, and no term or condition of the Loan Agreement, the Note, this Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents shall be construed so as to deem the relationship between Individual Borrower and Lender to be other than that of debtor and creditor.
Section 4.2 No Reliance on Lender. Neither Individual Borrower, any other Borrower nor any other Person that is or may become obligated for the performance of the Obligations is relying on Lender’s expertise, business acumen or advice in connection with the Property.
Section 4.3 No Lender Obligations.

Individual Borrower recognizes and acknowledges that in accepting the Loan Agreement, the Note, this Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents, Lender is expressly and primarily relying on the truth and accuracy of the warranties and representations set forth in Section 4.1 of the Loan Agreement without any obligation to investigate the Property and notwithstanding any investigation of the Property by Lender; that such reliance existed on the part of Lender prior to the date hereof, that the warranties and representations are a material inducement to Lender in making the Loan; and that Lender would not be willing to make the Loan and accept this Security Instrument in the absence of the warranties and representations as set forth in Section 4.1 of the Loan Agreement.
ARTICLE 5 - FURTHER ASSURANCES
Section 5.1 Recording of Security Instrument, etc. Individual Borrower forthwith upon the execution and delivery of this Security Instrument and thereafter, from time to time, promptly after written request from Lender, will cause this Security Instrument and any of the other Loan Documents creating a Lien or security interest or evidencing the Lien hereof upon the Property and each instrument of further assurance to be filed, registered or recorded in such manner and in such places as may be required by any present or future law in order to publish notice of and fully to protect and perfect the Lien or security interest hereof upon, and the interest of Lender in, the Property. Individual Borrower will pay, or cause to be paid, all taxes, filing, registration or recording fees, and all reasonable expenses incident to the preparation, execution, acknowledgment and/or recording of the Note, this Security Instrument, the other Loan Documents, any note, deed of trust or mortgage supplemental hereto, any security instrument with respect to the Property and any instrument of further assurance, and any modification or amendment of the foregoing documents, and all federal, state, county and municipal taxes, duties, imposts, assessments and charges (other than any income, franchise or similar taxes) arising out of or in connection with the execution and delivery of this Security Instrument, any deed of trust or mortgage supplemental hereto, any security instrument with respect to the Property or any instrument of further assurance, and any modification or amendment of the foregoing documents, except where prohibited by law so to do.

Individual Borrower, on demand, will execute and deliver, and in the event it shall fail to so execute and deliver, hereby authorizes Lender to execute in the name of Individual Borrower or without the signature of Individual Borrower to the extent Lender may lawfully do so, one or
10
more financing statements to evidence more effectively the security interest of Lender in the Property. Individual Borrower grants to Lender an irrevocable power of attorney coupled with an interest for the purpose of exercising and perfecting any and all rights and remedies available to Lender at law and in equity, including without limitation, such rights and remedies available to Lender pursuant to this Section 5.2.
Section 5.3 Changes in Tax, Debt, Credit and Documentary Stamp Laws. (a) If any law is enacted or adopted or amended after the date of this Security Instrument which deducts the Debt from the value of the Property for the purpose of taxation or which imposes a tax, either directly or indirectly, on the Debt or Lender’s interest in the Property, Individual Borrower will pay, or cause to be paid, the tax, with interest and penalties thereon, if any. If Lender is advised by counsel chosen by it and reasonably acceptable to Individual Borrower that the payment of tax by Individual Borrower and/or Borrower would be unlawful or taxable to Lender or unenforceable or provide the basis for a defense of usury then Lender shall have the option by written notice of not less than one hundred twenty (120) days to declare the Debt immediately due and payable.
(b) Individual Borrower will not claim or demand or be entitled to any credit or credits on account of the Debt for any part of the Taxes or Other Charges assessed against the Property, or any part thereof, and no deduction shall otherwise be made or claimed from the assessed value of the Property, or any part thereof, for real estate tax purposes by reason of this Security Instrument or the Debt. If such claim, credit or deduction shall be required by law, Lender shall have the option, by written notice of not less than one hundred twenty (120) days, to declare the Debt immediately due and payable.
(c) If at any time the United States of America, any State thereof or any subdivision of any such State shall require revenue or other stamps to be affixed to the Note, this Security Instrument, or any of the other Loan Documents or impose any other tax or charge on the same, Individual Borrower will pay, or cause to be paid, for the same, with interest and penalties thereon, if any.
Section 5.4 Severing of Mortgage. This Security Instrument and the Note shall, at any time until the same shall be fully paid and satisfied, at the sole election of Lender, be severed into two or more notes and two or more security instruments in such denominations as Lender shall determine in its sole discretion, each of which shall cover all or a portion of the Property to be more particularly described therein.

ARTICLE 6 - DUE ON SALE/ENCUMBRANCE
Section 6.1 Lender Reliance. Individual Borrower acknowledges that Lender has examined and relied on the experience of Individual Borrower and its general partners, members, principals and (if Individual Borrower is a trust) beneficial owners in owning and operating properties such as the Property in agreeing to make the Loan, and will continue to rely on Individual Borrower’s ownership of the Property as a means of maintaining the value of the Property as security for repayment of the Debt and the performance of the Other Obligations. Individual Borrower acknowledges that Lender has a valid interest in maintaining the value of the Property so as to ensure that, should Borrower default in the repayment of the Debt or the performance of the Other Obligations, Lender can recover the Debt, or a part thereof, by a sale of the Property.
Section 6.2 No Sale/Encumbrance. Neither Individual Borrower nor any Restricted Party shall Transfer the Property or any part thereof or any interest therein or permit or suffer the Property or any part thereof or any interest therein to be Transferred other than as expressly permitted pursuant to the terms of the Loan Agreement.

Lender is authorized to enter upon the Property for such purposes, or appear in, defend, or bring any action or proceeding to protect its interest in the Property or to foreclose this
14
Security Instrument or collect the Debt, and the cost and expense thereof (including reasonable attorneys’ fees to the extent permitted by law), with interest as provided in this Section 7.3, shall constitute a portion of the Debt and shall be due and payable to Lender upon demand. All such costs and expenses incurred by Lender in remedying such Event of Default or such failed payment or act or in appearing in, defending, or bringing any such action or proceeding shall bear interest at the Default Rate, for the period after notice from Lender that such cost or expense was incurred to the date of payment to Lender. All such costs and expenses incurred by Lender together with interest thereon calculated at the Default Rate shall be deemed to constitute a portion of the Debt and be secured by this Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents and shall be immediately due and payable upon demand by Lender therefor.
Section 7.4 Actions and Proceedings. Lender has the right to appear in and defend any action or proceeding brought with respect to the Property and to bring any action or proceeding, in the name and on behalf of Individual Borrower, which Lender, in its discretion, decides should be brought to protect its interest in the Property.
Section 7.5 Recovery of Sums Required To Be Paid. Lender shall have the right from time to time to take action to recover any sum or sums which constitute a part of the Debt as the same become due, without regard to whether or not the balance of the Debt shall be due, and without prejudice to the right of Lender thereafter to bring an action of foreclosure, or any other action, for a default or defaults by Individual Borrower hereunder or under the other Loan Documents or by any other Borrower under the Loan Documents existing at the time such earlier action was commenced.
Section 7.6 Examination of Books and Records. At reasonable times and upon reasonable notice, Lender, its agents, accountants and attorneys shall have the right to examine the records, books, management and other papers of Individual Borrower which reflect upon their financial condition, at the Property or at any office regularly maintained by Individual Borrower where the books and records are located. Lender and its agents shall have the right to make copies and extracts from the foregoing records and other papers.

This Section 7.6 shall apply throughout the term of the Note and without regard to whether an Event of Default has occurred or is continuing.
Section 7.7 Other Rights, etc. (a) The failure of Lender to insist upon strict performance of any term hereof shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any term of this Security Instrument. Individual Borrower shall not be relieved of Individual Borrower’s obligations hereunder by reason of (i) the failure of Lender to comply with any request of Individual Borrower, any other Borrower or any guarantor or indemnitor with respect to the Loan to take any action to foreclose this Security Instrument or otherwise enforce any of the provisions hereof or of the Note or the other Loan Documents, (ii) the release, regardless of consideration, of the whole or any part of the Property, or of any person liable for the Debt or any portion thereof, or (iii) any agreement or stipulation by Lender extending the time of payment or otherwise
15

(b) It is agreed that the risk of loss or damage to the Property is on Individual Borrower and Borrower, and Lender shall have no liability whatsoever for decline in value of the Property, for failure to maintain the Policies, or for failure to determine whether insurance in force is adequate as to the amount of risks insured. Possession by Lender shall not be deemed an election of judicial relief if any such possession is requested or obtained with respect to any Property or collateral not in Lender’s possession.
(c) Lender may resort for the payment of the Debt to any other security held by Lender in such order and manner as Lender, in its discretion, may elect. Lender may take action to recover the Debt, or any portion thereof, or to enforce any covenant hereof or of any other Loan Document without prejudice to the right of Lender thereafter to foreclose this Security Instrument. The rights of Lender under this Security Instrument or under any other Loan Document shall be separate, distinct and cumulative and none shall be given effect to the exclusion of the others. No act of Lender shall be construed as an election to proceed under any one provision herein or in any other Loan Document to the exclusion of any other provision herein and/or therein. Lender shall not be limited exclusively to the rights and remedies herein stated or stated in any other Loan Document but shall be entitled to every right and remedy now or hereafter afforded at law or in equity.
Section 7.8 Right to Release Any Portion of the Property. Lender may release any portion of the Property for such consideration as Lender may require without, as to the remainder of the Property, in any way impairing or affecting the lien or priority of this Security Instrument, or improving the position of any subordinate lienholder with respect thereto, except to the extent that the obligations hereunder shall have been reduced by the actual monetary consideration, if any, received by Lender for such release, and may accept by assignment, pledge or otherwise any other property in place thereof as Lender may require without being accountable for so doing to any other lienholder. This Security Instrument shall continue as a lien and security interest in the remaining portion of the Property.
Section 7.9 Violation of Laws. If the Property is not in material compliance with Legal Requirements, Lender may impose additional requirements upon Individual Borrower in connection herewith including, without limitation, monetary reserves or financial equivalents.
Section 7.10 Recourse and Choice of Remedies.

The provisions of Sections 8.2 and 8.3 herein are exceptions to any non-recourse or exculpation provisions in the Loan Agreement, the Note,
16
this Security Instrument or the other Loan Documents, and Individual Borrower and any guarantor or indemnitor with respect to the Loan are fully and personally liable for the obligations pursuant to Sections 8.2 and 8.3 herein. The liability of Individual Borrower and any guarantor or indemnitor with respect to the Loan pursuant to Sections 8.2 and 8.3 herein is not limited to the original principal amount of the Note.
