Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, and at any time thereafter, in addition to the other remedies provided for herein, the Trustee, or the Agent or successor of Trustee, at the request of the Agent, shall proceed to sell the Mortgaged Property, or any part of the Mortgaged Property, at public venue, to the highest bidder, by the STATUTORY POWER OF SALE granted herein, at the front door of the Obion County Courthouse in Union City, Tennessee, for cash, in bar of all statutory and equitable rights of redemption, homestead, dower, and any and all other rights and exceptions of every kind, all of which are hereby waived by the Grantor, in order to pay the Obligations Secured, and all expenses of sale and of all proceedings in connection therewith, including reasonable attorney’s fees, provided the Trustee shall first give the required legal notice of the time, terms and place of sale, and a description of
12
the Mortgaged Property to be sold. Advertisement of sale shall be made at least three (3) different times in a newspaper published in the county where the sale is to be made. The first publication is to be at least twenty (20) days prior to the sale and such sale shall occur between the hours of 10:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. on the day fixed in the notice. Grantor shall bear all expenses of any foreclosure proceeding which is terminated before sale at Grantor’s request. Following any such public sale, Trustee may execute and deliver to the purchaser a deed of conveyance of the Mortgaged Property or any part of the Mortgaged Property in fee simple, and any statement or recital of fact in such deed in relation to the nonpayment of money secured hereby, notice by advertisement, sale, or receipt of money, shall be prima facie evidence of the truth of such statement or recital. In the event of any sale under this Deed of Trust by virtue of the exercise of the powers herein granted, or pursuant to any order in any judicial proceeding or otherwise, the Mortgaged Property may be sold in its entirety or in separate parcels, and in such manner or as Agent, in its sole discretion, may elect, and if Agent so elects, Trustee may sell the personal property covered by this Deed of Trust at one or more separate sales in any manner permitted by the Code, as enacted in the State of Tennessee, and one or more exercises of the powers herein granted shall not extinguish or exhaust such powers, until the entire Mortgaged Property are sold or the Obligations Secured are paid in full. If the Obligations Secured are now or hereafter further secured by any chattel mortgages, pledges, contracts of guaranty, assignments of lease, or other security instruments, Agent may, at its option, exhaust the remedies granted under any of said security instruments, either concurrently or independently, and in such order as Agent may determine.
Any sale held under the provisions of this Deed of Trust may be adjourned by the Trustee, or his Agent or successors, and reset at a later date without additional publication, provided that an announcement to such effect is made at the scheduled place of sale at the time and on the date the sale was originally set. Any such sale will be held within one year of the originally scheduled sale and notice will be provided to Grantor as required by T.C.A. §35-5-101(f)(3).
(ii)Following an Event of Default, Agent may, in addition to and not in abrogation of the rights covered under subparagraph (a) of this Section 4(c), either with or without entry or taking possession as herein provided or otherwise, proceed by suit or suits in law or in equity, or by any other appropriate proceeding or remedy (i) to enforce payment of the Obligations Secured or the performance of any term, covenant, condition, or agreement of this Deed of Trust or any other right, and (ii) to pursue any other remedy available to Agent, all as Agent, in its sole discretion, shall elect. Agent shall be entitled to recover judgment as aforesaid either before or after or during the pendency of any proceedings for the enforcement of the provisions of this Deed of Trust, and the right of Agent to recover any such judgment shall not be affected by any entry or sale hereunder, or by the exercise of any other right, power or remedy for the enforcement of the provisions of this Deed of Trust, or the foreclosure of the lien hereof; and in the event of a sale of the Mortgaged Property, and of the application of the proceeds of sale as in this Deed of Trust provided, to the payment of the Obligations Secured, Agent shall be entitled to enforce payment of and to receive all amounts then remaining due and unpaid upon the Obligations Secured, and to enforce payment of all other charges, payments and costs due under this Deed of Trust, and shall be entitled to recover judgments for any portion of the debt remaining unpaid, with interest at the highest rate of interest permitted under the Loan Agreement. If a portion of the Mortgaged Property is sold pursuant to this Section, the Loan Documents will remain in full force and effect with respect to any unmatured portion of the Obligations Secured
13
and this Deed of Trust will continue as a valid and enforceable first lien on and security interest in the remaining portion of the Mortgaged Property, without loss of priority and without impairment of any of Agent’s rights and remedies with respect to the unmatured portion of the Obligations Secured;
(iii)Upon any foreclosure sale or sale of all or any portion of the Mortgaged Property under the power herein granted, Agent may bid for and purchase the Mortgaged Property and shall be entitled to apply all or any part of the Obligations Secured as a credit to the purchase price.
(iv)In the event of a foreclosure or a sale of all or any portion of the Mortgaged Property, the proceeds of said sale shall be applied, first, to the expenses of such sale and of all proceedings in connection therewith, including reasonable fees of the attorney and trustee (and attorney and trustee fees and expenses shall become absolutely due and payable whenever foreclosure is commenced); then to insurance premiums, liens, assessments, taxes, and charges including utility charges advanced by Agent, and interest thereon; then to payment of the Obligations Secured and accrued interest thereon; and finally the remainder, if any, shall be paid to Grantor, or to the person or entity lawfully entitled thereto.
(v)In the event of any such foreclosure sale or sale under the power herein granted, Grantor (if Grantor shall remain in possession) 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 law applicable to tenants holding over.
(vi)Grantor agrees, to the full extent permitted by law, that in case of an Event of Default hereunder, neither Grantor nor anyone claiming through or under Grantor will set up, claim, or seek to take advantage of any appraisement, valuation, stay, extension, homestead, exemption, or redemption laws now or hereafter in force, in order to prevent or hinder the enforcement or foreclosure of this Deed of Trust, or the absolute sale of the Mortgaged Property, or the delivery of possession thereof immediately after such sale to the purchaser at such sale, and Grantor, for itself and all who may at any time claim through or under Grantor, 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 subject to the security interest of this Deed of Trust marshaled upon any foreclosure or sale under the power herein granted.
(vii)Grantor hereby waives and renounces all homestead and exemption rights provided for by the Constitution and the laws of the United States and of any state, in and to the Mortgaged Property as against the collection of the Obligations Secured, or any part thereof.
(viii)In case of a sale by the Trustee enforcing the provisions hereof, Grantor waives and surrenders all right and equity of redemption, statutory right of redemption, or repurchase of said land and Mortgaged Property and all other exemptions. From the time of the conveyance of said land under such sale by the delivery of a deed to a purchaser, Grantor and all persons holding under it, shall be and become the tenant or tenants at will of the purchaser, holding from month to month, with rent payable to such purchaser monthly in advance, commencing with the day of delivery of said deed.
14
(ix)In case Agent shall have proceeded to enforce any right, power, or remedy under this Deed of Trust by foreclosure, entry, or otherwise, and such proceedings shall have been determined adversely to Agent, then in every such case, the costs and expenses incurred by Agent in such matter shall not be included in the Obligations Secured, and the Grantor, Trustee, and Agent shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder, and all rights, powers, and remedies of Agent shall continue as if no such proceeding had occurred.
(x)No right, power, or remedy conferred upon or reserved to Agent by this Deed of Trust is intended to be exclusive of any other right, power, or remedy, but each and every such right, power, and remedy shall be cumulative and concurrent and shall be in addition to any other right, power, and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law, in equity, or by statute.
(d)Rights under the Code. With respect to those portions of the Mortgaged Property covered by the Code, Agent may exercise any and all rights granted to a secured party under the Code.

15
. No remedy or right of the Pari Passu Agent shall be exclusive of, but shall be in addition to, every other remedy or right now or hereafter existing at law or in equity.

Section 5.8 Changes |

Agent shall make such election within fifteen (15) business days following any such decision by a court of competent jurisdiction, after the expiration of all appeal periods. |
