business, operations, assets or financial condition of Debtor. Debtor further
agrees that any and all alterations made to the Mortgaged Property while this

Environmental Condition may exist on the Mortgaged Property, or, upon and
following an Event of Default hereunder (after the expiration of any applicable
cure or grace period), if Mortgagee shall have another reasonable basis for
requiring or performing it, Mortgagee and any other person or entity designated
by Mortgagee, including but not limited to any receiver and any environmental
consultant, shall have the right, but not the obligation, to enter upon the
Mortgaged Property at all reasonable times and after reasonable notice (except
in emergencies, in which case entry may be made at any time) to assess any and
all aspects of any Environmental Condition, including but not limited to
conducting any environmental assessment or audit (the scope of which shall be
determined in Mortgagee's sole and absolute discretion) and taking samples of
soil, groundwater or other water or air samples, and conducting other invasive
testing ("Inspection"); provided, however, that Mortgagee shall be responsible
at its sole cost and expense for restoring the Mortgaged Property following
completion of the Inspection to substantially the same condition that existed
before Mortgagee's entry and that the Inspection is done in a manner that
minimizes the disruption to Debtor's business. Debtor shall have the right to
have a representative accompany the environmental consultant performing the
Inspection and shall have the right to receive split samples of any soil samples
collected as part of the Inspection. Mortgagee agrees that the results of the
environmental assessment shall not be disclosed to any governmental authority or
third party except where required by law. Mortgagee shall give Debtor prior
written notice of its intent to disclose the results of any Inspection to a
governmental authority or third party and shall consult with Debtor regarding
the form, substance and timing of any such disclosure. Debtor shall cooperate
with and provide access to Mortgagee
and any such person or entity designated by Mortgagee.
(i) Debtor shall, at its sole cost and expense, protect, defend,
indemnify, release and hold harmless the Indemnified Parties from and against
any and all Losses (excluding Losses arising out of Mortgagee's gross negligence
or wilful misconduct) and costs of Remediation (whether or not performed
voluntarily), reasonable engineers' fees and environmental consultants' fees,
and costs of investigation (including but not limited to sampling, testing, and
analysis of soil, water, air, building materials and other materials and
substances whether solid, liquid or gas) imposed upon or incurred by or asserted
against any Indemnified Parties, and directly or indirectly arising out of or in
any way relating to any one or more of the following: (i) any presence of any
Hazardous Materials in, on, above, or under the Mortgaged Property in excess of
DeMinimis Amounts; (ii) any past, present or threatened Release in, on, above,
under or from the Mortgaged Property; (iii) any activity by Debtor, any person
or entity affiliated with Debtor or any tenant or other user of the Mortgaged
Property in connection with any actual, proposed or threatened use, treatment,
storage, holding, existence, disposition or other Release, generation,
production, manufacturing, processing, refining, control, management, abatement,
removal, handling, transportation to or from the Mortgaged Property of any
Hazardous Materials at any time located in, under, on or above the Mortgaged
Property; (iv) any activity by Debtor, any person or entity affiliated with
Debtor or any tenant or other user of the Mortgaged Property in connection with
any actual or proposed Remediation of any Hazardous Materials at any time
located in, under, on or above the Mortgaged Property, whether or not such
Remediation is voluntary or pursuant to court or administrative order, including
but not limited to any removal, remedial or corrective action; (v) any past,
present or threatened non-compliance or violations of any Environmental Laws (or
permits issued pursuant to any Environmental Laws) in connection with the
Mortgaged Property or operations thereon, including but not limited to any
failure by Debtor, any person or entity affiliated with Debtor or any tenant or
other user of the Mortgaged Property to comply with any order of any
governmental authority in connection with any Environmental Laws; (vi) the
imposition, recording or filing or the threatened imposition, recording or
filing of any Environmental Lien encumbering the Mortgaged Property; (vii) any
administrative processes or proceedings or judicial proceedings in any way
connected with any matter addressed in this Section; (viii) any past, present or
threatened injury to, destruction of or loss of natural resources in any way
connected with the Mortgaged Property, including but not limited to costs to
investigate and assess such injury, destruction or loss; (ix) any acts of Debtor
or other users of the Mortgaged Property in arranging for disposal or treatment,
or arranging with a transporter for transport for disposal or treatment, of
Hazardous Materials owned or possessed by such Debtor or other users, at any
facility or incineration vessel owned or operated by another person or entity
and containing such or similar Hazardous Materials; (x) any acts of Debtor or
other users of the Mortgaged Property, in accepting any Hazardous Materials for
transport to disposal or treatment facilities, incineration vessels or sites
selected by Debtor or such other users, from which there is a Release, or a
threatened Release of any Hazardous Material which causes the incurrence of
costs for Remediation; (xi) any personal injury, wrongful death, or property
damage arising under any statutory or common law or tort law theory caused by or
resulting from an Environmental Condition, including but not limited to damages
assessed for the maintenance of a private or public nuisance or for the
conducting of an abnormally dangerous activity on or near the Mortgaged
Property; and (xii) any material misrepresentation or inaccuracy
in any representation or warranty or material breach or failure to perform any
covenants or other obligations pursuant to this Section.
(j) The obligations of Debtor and the rights and remedies of Mortgagee set
forth in this Section are independent from those of Debtor pursuant to the
Environmental Indemnity Agreement. Furthermore, such obligations of Debtor and
rights and remedies of Mortgagee shall survive the termination, expiration
and/or release of the Loan Agreement, the Note, the other Loan Documents, the
Environmental Indemnity Agreement and/or the judicial or nonjudicial foreclosure
of this Mortgage by Mortgagee or the delivery of a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure
for the Premises by Debtor to Mortgagee.
Section 2.10. Alterations and Improvements. Debtor shall not alter the
exterior, structural, plumbing or electrical elements of the Mortgaged Property
in any manner without the consent of Mortgagee, which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned; provided, however, Debtor may
undertake nonstructural alterations to the Mortgaged Property costing less than
$100,000.00 without Mortgagee's consent. If Mortgagee consents to the making of
any such alterations, the same shall be made by Debtor at Debtor's sole expense
by a licensed contractor and according to plans and specifications approved by
Mortgagee and subject to such other reasonable conditions as Mortgagee shall
require. Any work at any time commenced by Debtor on the Mortgaged Property
shall be prosecuted diligently to completion, shall be of good workmanship and
materials and shall comply fully with all the terms of this Mortgage. Upon
completion of any alterations or any Restoration, Debtor shall promptly provide
Mortgagee with (i) reasonable evidence of full payment to all laborers and
materialmen contributing to the alterations, (ii) a certificate from Debtor
certifying that the alterations have been completed in conformity with the plans
and specifications, (iii) a certificate of occupancy, if required by applicable
law, and (iv) any other documents or information reasonably requested by
Mortgagee.
Section 2.11. After-Acquired Property. All right, title and interest of
Debtor in and to all improvements, alterations, substitutions, restorations and
replacements of, and all additions and appurtenances to, the Mortgaged Property,
hereafter acquired by or released to Debtor, immediately upon such acquisition
or release and without any further granting by Debtor, shall become part of the
Mortgaged Property and shall be subject to the lien hereof fully, completely and
with the same effect as though now owned by Debtor and specifically described in
the Granting Clauses hereof. Debtor shall execute and deliver to Mortgagee any
further assurances, mortgages, grants, conveyances or assignments thereof as the
Mortgagee may reasonably require to subject the same to the lien hereof.
Section 2.12. Taxes. (a) Debtor shall do or cause to be done everything
necessary to preserve the lien hereof without expense to Mortgagee, including,
without limitation, paying and discharging or causing to be paid and discharged,
whether or not payable directly by Debtor or subject to withholding at the
source, (i) all taxes, assessments, levies, fees, water and sewer rents and
charges and all other governmental charges, general, special, ordinary or
extraordinary, and all charges for utility or communications services, which may
at any time be assessed, levied or imposed upon Debtor, the Mortgaged Property,
this Mortgage, the Obligations or the revenues,
rents, issues, income and profits of the Mortgaged Property or which may arise
in respect of the occupancy, use, possession or operation thereof, (ii) all
income, excess profits, sales, gross receipts and other taxes, duties or
imposts, whether similar or not in nature, assessed, levied or imposed by any
governmental authority on Debtor, the Mortgaged Property or the revenues, rents,
issues, income and profits of the Mortgaged Property (iii) all lawful claims and
demands of mechanics, laborers, materialmen and others which, if unpaid, might
create a lien on the Mortgaged Property, or on the revenues, rents, issues,
income and profits of the Mortgaged Property, unless Debtor shall contest the
amount or validity thereof in accordance with subsection (b). Notwithstanding
the foregoing, Debtor shall not be in breach or default under this Subsection
2.12 for failing or refusing to pay or discharge any claims or liens of
mechanics, laborers, materialmen and others where (and only where) such
claimants have a legal right under applicable laws to assert or impose a claim
or lien against the Mortgaged Property prior to the time that amounts owing to
such claimants become due or payable, so long as Debtor shall pay and discharge
any and all such claims or liens (AA) no later than the date on which the
amounts owing relative to such claims and liens become due and payable (and in
any event before such amounts become past due or are declared to be past due by
such claimants), and (BB) before such claimants commence legal proceedings (in
any form or forum) to foreclose such claims or liens or to otherwise enforce
such claimants' rights and remedies with respect to such claims or liens.
(b) Debtor may, at its own expense, contest or cause to be contested (in
the case of any item involving more than $1000.00, upon written notice to
Mortgagee), by appropriate legal proceedings conducted in good faith and with
due diligence, the amount or validity or application, in whole or in part, of
any item specified in subsection (a) or lien therefor, provided that (i) neither
the Mortgaged Property nor any interest therein would be in any danger of being
sold, forfeited or lost by reason of such proceedings, (ii) Debtor shall have
adequate reserves for the payment of the taxes, together with all interest and
penalties thereon, unless paid in full under protest, and (iii) Debtor shall
have furnished the security as may be required in the proceeding to insure
payment of any contested taxes.
Section 2.13. Insurance. (a) Debtor shall maintain with respect to the
Mortgaged Property, at its sole expense, the following types and amounts of
insurance (which may be included under a blanket insurance policy if all the
other terms hereof are satisfied), in addition to such other insurance as
Mortgagee may reasonably require from time to time:
(i) Insurance against loss, damage or destruction by fire and other
casualty, including theft, vandalism and malicious mischief, flood (if the
Premises are in a location designated by the Federal Secretary of Housing
and Urban Development as a flood hazard area), earthquake (if the Premises
are in an area subject to destructive earthquakes within recorded
history), boiler explosion (if there is any boiler upon the Premises),
plate glass breakage, sprinkler damage (if the Premises have a sprinkler
system), all matters covered by a standard extended coverage endorsement,
special coverage endorsement commonly known as an "all risk" endorsement
and such other risks as Mortgagee may reasonably require, insuring the
Mortgaged Property for not less than 100% of their full insurable
replacement cost.
(ii) Comprehensive general liability and property damage insurance,
including a products liability clause, covering Mortgagee and Debtor
against bodily injury liability, property damage liability and automobile
bodily injury and property damage liability, including without limitation
any liability arising out of the ownership, maintenance, repair, condition
or operation of the Mortgaged Property or adjoining ways, streets or
sidewalks and, if applicable, insurance covering Mortgagee, against
liability arising from the sale of liquor, beer or wine on the Premises.
Such insurance policy or policies shall contain a broad form contractual
liability endorsement under which the insurer agrees to insure Debtor's
obligations under Section 5.16 hereof to the extent insurable, and a
"severability of interest" clause or endorsement which precludes the
insurer from denying the claim of either Debtor or Mortgagee because of
the negligence or other acts of the other, shall be in amounts of not less
than $1,000,000.00 per injury and occurrence with respect to any insured
liability, for personal injury and not less than $500,000.00 per
occurrence for property damage, or such higher limits as Mortgagee may
reasonably require from time to time, and shall be of form and substance
satisfactory to Mortgagee.
(b) Business interruption insurance equal to 100% of the principal and
interest payable under the Note for a period of not less than six months.
(c) State Worker's compensation insurance in the statutorily mandated
limits, employer's liability insurance with limits not less than $500,000 or
such greater amount as Mortgagee may from time to time reasonably require and
such other insurance as may be necessary to comply with applicable laws.
All insurance policies shall:
(i) Provide for a waiver of subrogation by the insurer as to claims
against Mortgagee, its employees and agents;
(ii) Provide that such insurance cannot be unreasonably cancelled,
invalidated or suspended on account of the negligence of Debtor, its
officers, directors, employees or agents;
(iii) Provide that any "no other insurance" clause in the insurance
policy shall exclude any policies of insurance maintained by Mortgagee and
that the insurance policy shall not be brought into contribution with
insurance maintained by Mortgagee;
(iv) Contain a standard without contribution mortgage clause
endorsement in favor of Mortgagee and any other lender designated by
Mortgagee;
(v) Provide that the policy of insurance shall not be terminated,
cancelled or substantially modified without at least thirty (30) days'
prior written notice to Mortgagee and to any lender covered by any
standard mortgage clause endorsement;
(vi) Provide that the insurer shall not have the option to restore
the Premises if Mortgagee elects to terminate this Mortgage in accordance
with the terms hereof;
(vii) Be issued by insurance companies licensed to do business in
the state in which the Premises is located and which are rated A:VI or
better by Best's Insurance Guide or otherwise approved by Mortgagee; and
(viii) Provide that the insurer shall not deny a claim because of
the negligence of Debtor.
It is expressly understood and agreed that the foregoing minimum limits of
insurance coverage shall not limit the liability of Debtor for its acts or
omissions as provided in this Mortgage. All insurance policies (with the
exception of worker's compensation insurance to the extent not available under
statutory law) shall designate Mortgagee as additional insured as its interests
may appear and shall be payable as set forth in Article III hereof. All such
policies shall be written as primary policies, with deductibles not to exceed
10% of the amount of coverage. Any other policies, including any policy now or
hereafter carried by Mortgagee, shall serve as excess coverage. Debtor shall
procure policies for all insurance for periods of not less than one year and
shall provide to Mortgagee certificates of insurance or, upon Mortgagee's
request, duplicate originals of insurance policies evidencing that insurance
satisfying the requirements of this Mortgage is in effect at all times.
Section 2.14. Impound Account. Nonpayment of any taxes or other sums to be
paid by Debtor pursuant to Section 2.12 (after taking into consideration
Debtor's right to contest as set forth in Section 2.12(b)) and nonpayment of any
insurance premium to be paid by Debtor pursuant to Section 2.13 shall constitute
waste, and shall entitle Mortgagee to exercise the remedies afforded by Section
600.2927 of the Michigan Revised Judicature Act of 1961, as now or hereafter
amended, and by any other statute of law now or hereafter in effect, including
appointment of a receiver, to which appointment Debtor consents. Upon the
occurrence of an Event of Default (after the expiration of any applicable grace
and cure period) under this Mortgage or any other Loan Document, Mortgagee may
require Debtor to pay to Mortgagee sums which will provide an impound account
(which shall not be deemed a trust fund) for paying up to the next one year of
taxes, assessments and/or insurance premiums. Upon such requirement, Mortgagee
will estimate the amounts needed for such purposes and will notify Debtor to pay
the same to Mortgagee in equal monthly installments, as nearly as practicable,
in addition to all other sums due under this Mortgage. Should additional funds
be required at any time, Debtor shall pay the same to Mortgagee on demand.
Debtor shall advise Mortgagee of all taxes and insurance bills which are due and
shall cooperate fully with Mortgagee in assuring that the same are paid.
Mortgagee may deposit all impounded funds in accounts insured by any federal or
state agency and may commingle such funds with other funds and accounts of
Mortgagee. Interest or other gains from such funds, if any, shall be the sole
property of Mortgagee. In the event of any default by Debtor, Mortgagee may
apply all impounded funds against any sums due from Debtor to Mortgagee.
Mortgagee shall give to Debtor an annual accounting (or, upon reasonable request
of Debtor from time to time)
showing all credits and debits to and from such impounded funds received from
Debtor.
Section 2.15. Advances by Mortgagee. Upon the occurrence of an Event of
Default (after the expiration of any applicable grace and cure period),
Mortgagee may make advances to perform any of the covenants contained in this
Mortgage on Debtor's behalf, and all sums so advanced shall be secured hereby
prior to the Note. Debtor shall repay on demand all sums so advanced with
interest thereon at the rate of 4% per annum above the rate of interest stated
in the Note (or the highest rate permitted by law, whichever is less), such
interest to be computed from and including the date of the making of such
advance to and including the date of such repayment.
Section 2.16. Negative Covenants. A. Debtor agrees that Debtor shall not,
without the prior written consent of Mortgagee, which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed, sell, convey, mortgage, grant, bargain,
encumber (other than the Permitted Exceptions), pledge, assign, or otherwise
transfer the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof or permit the Mortgaged
Property or any part thereof to be sold, conveyed, mortgaged, granted,
bargained, encumbered (other than the Permitted Exceptions), pledged, assigned,
or otherwise transferred. A sale, conveyance, mortgage, grant, bargain,
encumbrance, pledge, assignment, or transfer within the meaning of this Section
shall be deemed to include, but not limited to, (a) an installment sales
agreement wherein Debtor agrees to sell the Mortgaged Property or any part
thereof for a price to be paid in installments; (b) except as otherwise
specifically provided in this Section 2.16, an agreement by Debtor leasing all
or any part of the Mortgaged Property or a sale, assignment or other transfer
of, or the grant of a security interest (other than the Permitted Exceptions)
in, Debtor's right, title and interest in and to any Leases or any Rents; or (c)
if Debtor is a corporation, any merger, by or with such corporation (where the
surviving corporation is not Debtor), or the voluntary or involuntary sale or
transfer of such corporation's stock where such stock is sold or transferred at
less than the fair market value of such stock, or the repurchase by Debtor of
its corporation's stock from I.C.H. Corporation, or any transferee of or
successor to I.C.H. Corporation. For purposes of the preceding sentence, the
fair market value of such stock shall be determined by a regionally- or
nationally-recognized investment banking firm selected by Debtor and reasonably
acceptable to Mortgagee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a transfer by devise or
descent or by operation of law upon the death of a stockholder of Debtor shall
not be deemed to be a sale, conveyance, mortgage, grant, bargain, encumbrance,
pledge, assignment, or transfer within the meaning of this Section.
B. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Debtor shall have the right to sell,
convey or otherwise transfer the Mortgaged Property to an Affiliate of Debtor
after prior notice of such transfer is given to Mortgagee, provided that (i) the
use and occupancy of the Mortgaged Property by such transferee shall be in
compliance with the terms and conditions of this Mortgage, (ii) Debtor shall not
be released from or of any of Debtor's duties, obligations or liabilities
arising under this Mortgage, (iii) Debtor shall cause such transferee to provide
Mortgagee with such information as Mortgagee shall reasonably require in order
to determine compliance with the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio requirements set
forth in the Loan Agreement, and (iv) Debtor (at Debtor's cost) shall provide
Mortgagee with a title endorsement (in form and substance reasonably acceptable
to Mortgagee) to Mortgagee's lender's policy issued in connection with the
consummation of the
transaction contemplated by the Loan Agreement, insuring that the lien,
including the priority of the lien, of this Mortgage shall not be affected by
such transfer.
C. Mortgagee shall not unreasonably withhold its consent to the leasing of
the Mortgaged Property by Debtor to a franchisee or licensee approved by
Licensor, or to a franchisee or franchisor of a nationally- or
regionally-recognized franchised restaurant chain, provided that (i) the use and
occupancy of the Mortgaged Property by such lessee shall be in compliance with
the terms and conditions of this Mortgage and in compliance with all covenants,
conditions and restrictions of record affecting the Mortgaged Property, (ii)
Debtor shall not be released from or of any of Debtor's duties, obligations or
liabilities arising under this Mortgage, (iii) Mortgagee shall have approved the
form and substance of the lease between Debtor and such lessee, which consent
shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, and (iv) Debtor shall cause such
lessee to provide Mortgagee with such information as Mortgagee shall reasonably
require in order to determine compliance with the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio
requirements set forth in the Loan Agreement.
D. Mortgagee reserves the right to condition the consent required
hereunder upon a modification of the terms hereof and on assumption of the Note,
this Mortgage and the other Loan Documents as so modified by the proposed
transferee, payment of all of Mortgagee's reasonable and actual expenses
incurred in connection with such transfer, the proposed transferee's continued
compliance with the covenants set forth in this Mortgage, or such other
conditions as Mortgagee shall determine in its sole discretion to be in the
interest of Mortgagee. Mortgagee shall not be required to demonstrate any actual
impairment of its security or any increased risk of default hereunder in order
to declare the Obligations immediately due and payable upon Debtor's sale,
mortgage, grant, bargain, encumbrance, pledge, assignment, or transfer of the
Mortgaged Property without Mortgagee's consent. This provision shall apply to
every sale, conveyance, mortgage, grant, bargain, encumbrance, pledge,
assignment, or transfer of the Mortgaged Property regardless of whether
voluntary or not, or whether or not Mortgagee has consented to any previous
sale, conveyance, mortgage, grant, bargain, encumbrance, pledge, assignment, or
transfer of the Mortgaged Property.
Section 2.17. Financial Statements. Within 45 days after the end of each
fiscal quarter and within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year of Debtor,
Debtor shall deliver to Mortgagee (i) complete financial statements of Debtor
including a balance sheet, profit and loss statement, statement of changes in
financial condition and all other related schedules for the fiscal period then
ended; and (ii) income statements for the business at the Mortgaged Property.
All such financial statements shall be prepared in all material respects in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, consistently applied
from period to period, and shall be certified to be accurate and complete by
Debtor (or the Treasurer or other appropriate officer of Debtor). Debtor
understands that Mortgagee is relying upon such financial statements and Debtor
represents that such reliance is reasonable. The financial statements delivered
to Mortgagee need not be audited, but Debtor shall deliver to Mortgagee copies
of any audited financial statements of Debtor which may be prepared, as soon as
they are available.
Section 2.18. Licensor Requirements. In addition to the requirements set
forth in this
Mortgage, Debtor, in its ownership, use, occupancy and maintenance of the
Mortgaged Property shall comply in all material respects with all requirements
of its license agreement with Licensor. Debtor hereby consents to Mortgagee
providing information it obtains to Licensor and to Mortgagee obtaining from
Licensor information which Licensor receives relating to Debtor's operation of
its business on the Premises.
Section 2.19. Incorporation of Representations and Warranties. The
representations and warranties of Debtor set forth in the Loan Agreement are
incorporated by reference into this Mortgage as if stated in full in this
Mortgage.
ARTICLE III
POSSESSION, USE AND RELEASE OF THE MORTGAGED PROPERTY
Section 3.01. Casualty or Condemnation. Debtor, immediately upon obtaining
knowledge of any casualty to any portion of the Mortgaged Property or of any
proceeding or negotiation for the taking of all or any portion of the Mortgaged
Property in condemnation or other eminent domain proceedings, shall notify
Mortgagee of such casualty, proceeding or negotiation. Any award, compensation
or other payment resulting from such casualty or condemnation or eminent domain
proceeding, as applicable, shall be applied as set forth below. Mortgagee may
participate in any condemnation or eminent domain proceeding, and Debtor will
deliver or cause to be delivered to Mortgagee all instruments requested by
Mortgagee to permit such participation.
(a) Casualty. (i) In the event of any material damage to or
destruction of the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof, Debtor will
promptly give written notice to Mortgagee, generally describing the nature
and extent of such damage or destruction. No damage to or destruction of
the Mortgaged Property shall relieve Debtor of its obligation to pay any
monetary sum due under the Loan Documents at the time and in the manner
provided in the Loan Documents.
(ii) In the event of any damage to or destruction of the Mortgaged
Property or any part thereof, Debtor, whether or not the insurance
proceeds, if any, on account of such damage or destruction shall be
sufficient for the purpose, at its expense, shall promptly commence and
complete the Restoration.
(iii) Insurance proceeds received by Mortgagee and Debtor on account
of any occurrence of damage to or destruction of the Mortgaged Property or
any part thereof, less the costs, fees and expenses incurred by Mortgagee
and Debtor in the collection thereof, including, without limitation,
adjuster's fees and expenses and attorneys' fees and expenses (the "Net
Insurance Proceeds"), shall be paid to (1) Debtor if the amount of such
Net Insurance Proceeds is less than $100,000 and applied by Debtor toward
the cost of the Restoration, and (2) Mortgagee if the amount of such Net
Insurance Proceeds is $100,000 or greater. Net Insurance Proceeds paid to
Mortgagee shall be held and disbursed by Mortgagee, or as Mortgagee may
from time to time direct, as the Restoration progresses, to
pay or reimburse Debtor for the cost of the Restoration, upon written
request of Debtor accompanied by evidence, satisfactory to Mortgagee, that
(v) the Restoration is in full compliance with all applicable laws,
regulations, restrictions and requirements, whether governmental or
private, (w) the amount requested has been paid or is then due and payable
and is properly a part of such cost, (x) there are no mechanics' or
similar liens for labor or materials theretofore supplied in connection
with the Restoration, (y) if the estimated cost of the Restoration exceeds
the Net Insurance Proceeds, Debtor has deposited into an escrow
satisfactory to Mortgagee such excess amount, which sum will be disbursed
pursuant to escrow instructions satisfactory to Mortgagee, and (z) the
balance of such Net Insurance Proceeds, together with the funds deposited
into escrow, if any, pursuant to the preceding subsection (y), after
making the payment requested will be sufficient to pay the balance of the
cost of the Restoration. Upon receipt by Mortgagee of evidence
satisfactory to it that the Restoration has been completed and the cost
thereof paid in full, and that there are no mechanics' or similar liens
for labor or materials supplied in connection therewith, the balance, if
any, of such Net Insurance Proceeds shall be paid to Debtor. If an Event
of Default has occurred and is continuing (after the expiration of any
applicable grace or cure period) at the time of the damage or destruction
to the Mortgaged Property, all Net Insurance Proceeds shall be paid to
Mortgagee, and Mortgagee may retain and apply the Net Insurance Proceeds
toward the Obligations whether or not then due and payable, in such order,
priority and proportions as Mortgagee in its discretion shall deem proper,
or to cure such Event of Default, or, in Mortgagee's discretion, Mortgagee
may pay such Net Insurance Proceeds in whole or in part to Debtor to be
applied toward the cost of the Restoration. If Mortgagee shall receive and
retain Net Insurance Proceeds, the lien of this Mortgage shall be reduced
only by the amount received and retained by Mortgagee and actually applied
by Mortgagee in reduction of the Obligations.
(iv) In the event that the casualty is not caused by Debtor, or its
agents, employees, representatives, contractors or subcontractors, and the
cost of the Restoration exceeds fifty percent (50%) of the value of the
Premises, excluding the value of the real estate, Debtor shall have the
right, to be exercised by notice to Mortgagee no later than 20 days after
the occurrence of a casualty, to either (aa) pay to Mortgagee (without
prepayment premium or penalty) the entire amount owing under the Note, or
(bb) substitute the Mortgaged Property with a substitute site in
accordance with Subsection 10.E(iii) of the Loan Agreement, provided that
Debtor shall continue to pay all sums and amounts due and payable under
the Note until such time as a new promissory note is executed and
delivered by Debtor to Mortgagee in connection with the consummation of
such substitution. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the option to pay the
entire amount owing under the Note as provided in subsection
3.01(a)(iv)(aa) hereof shall not be available to Debtor prior to the fifth
(5th) anniversary of the Note.
(b) Eminent Domain. (i) In case of a taking of all or any part of
the Mortgaged Property or the commencement of any proceedings or
negotiations which might result in a taking, for any public or
quasi-public purpose by any lawful power or authority by exercise of the
right of condemnation or eminent domain or by agreement between Mortgagee,
Debtor and those authorized to exercise such right ("Taking"), Debtor will
promptly give written notice thereof to Mortgagee, generally describing
the nature and extent of such Taking. Mortgagee shall file and prosecute
on behalf of Mortgagee and Debtor any and all claims for an award, and all
awards and other payments on account of a Taking shall be paid to
Mortgagee.
(ii) In case of a Taking of the whole of the Mortgaged Property,
other than for temporary use ("Total Taking"), or in case of a Taking of
less than all of the Mortgaged Property ("Partial Taking"), these Loan
Documents shall remain in full force and effect. Debtor, whether or not
the awards or payments, if any, on account of such Partial Taking shall be
sufficient for the purpose (but provided they are made available by
Mortgagee for such purpose), at its own cost and expense, will promptly
commence and complete the Restoration. In case of a Partial Taking, other
than a temporary use, of such a substantial part of the Mortgaged Property
as shall result in the Mortgaged Property remaining after such Partial
Taking being unsuitable for use, such Taking shall be deemed a Total
Taking.
(iii) In case of a temporary use of the whole or any part of the
Mortgaged Property by a Taking, these Loan Documents shall remain in full
force and effect without any reduction of any monetary sum payable under
these Loan Documents. Subject to the application provisions below, Debtor
shall be entitled to the entire award for such Taking, whether paid by
damages, rent or otherwise. In any proceeding for such Taking, Mortgagee
shall have the right to intervene and participate; provided that, if such
intervention shall not be permitted, Debtor shall consult with Mortgagee,
its attorneys and experts, and make all reasonable efforts to cooperate
with Mortgagee in the prosecution or defense of such proceeding. At the
termination of any such use or occupation of the Mortgaged Property,
Debtor will, at its own cost and expense, promptly commence and complete
the Restoration.
(iv) Awards and other payments on account of a Taking, less the
costs, fees and expenses incurred by Mortgagee and Debtor in connection
with the collection thereof, including, without limitation, attorneys'
fees and expenses, shall be applied as follows:
(x) Net awards and payments received on account of a Total
Taking shall be allocated as follows:
(aa) There shall be paid to the Mortgagee (without
prepayment premium or penalty) an amount up to the sum of the
outstanding principal, including all sums advanced by
Mortgagee hereunder, and interest under the Note, all as of
the date on which such payment is made, such amount shall be
applied first against all sums advanced by Mortgagee under
this Mortgage, second against the accrued but unpaid interest
on the Note, and third to the remaining unpaid principal
amount of the Note.
(bb) Any remaining balance shall be paid to Debtor.
(y) Net awards and payments received on account of a Partial
Taking shall be held and allocated as follows: (i) toward the cost
of the Restoration, such application of net awards and other
payments to be made substantially in the manner provided in Section
3.01(a)(iii) of this Mortgage; (ii) to Mortgagee to cure any default
first, in the Note and second, in this Mortgage; (iii) there shall
be paid to Mortgagee, as the holder of this Mortgage, an amount
equal to that portion of any unpaid principal amount of the Note,
and any interest accrued thereon, bearing the same relationship to
the total unpaid principal amount of the Note, and any interest
accrued thereon, all as of the date on which such payment is made,
as the square footage in the Mortgaged Property taken on account of
such Partial Taking, bears to the total square footage in the
Mortgaged Property prior to such Partial Taking, and such amount
shall be applied against the unpaid principal amount of the Note;
and (iv) any remaining balance shall be paid to Debtor.
(z) Net awards and payments received on account of a Taking for
temporary use shall be held and applied to the payment of the
monthly installments of combined interest and principal becoming due
under the Note, until such Taking for temporary use is terminated
and the Restoration, if any, has been completed; provided, however,
that, if any portion of any such award or payment is made by reason
of any damage to or destruction of the Mortgaged Property, such
portion shall be held and applied as provided in Section
3.01(a)(iii) hereof. The balance, if any, of such awards and
payments shall be paid to Debtor unless Debtor is in default under
the Loan Documents, in which event such awards and payments shall be
paid to Mortgagee to cure such default first, in the Note and
second, in this Mortgage.
(v) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if at the time of any Taking or
at any time thereafter an Event of Default shall have occurred and such
Event of Default shall be continuing (after the expiration of any
applicable grace and cure period), Mortgagee is hereby authorized and
empowered, in the name and on behalf of Debtor and otherwise, to file and
prosecute Debtor's claim, if any, for an award on account of any Taking
and to collect such award and apply the same, after deducting all costs,
fees and expenses incident to the collection thereof, to the curing of
such default and any other then existing default under the Loan Documents.
Section 3.02. Conveyance in Anticipation of Condemnation, Granting of
Easements, Etc. If no default shall have occurred and be continuing, Debtor may,
from time to time with respect to its interest in the Mortgaged Property, and
with Mortgagee's prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld or delayed (i) sell, assign, convey or otherwise transfer any interest
therein to any person legally empowered to take such interest under the power of
eminent domain, (ii) grant easements and other rights in the nature of
easements, (iii) release existing easements or other rights in the nature of
easements which are for the benefit of the Mortgaged Property, (iv) dedicate or
transfer unimproved portions of the Mortgaged Property for
road, highway or other public purposes, (v) execute petitions to have the
Mortgaged Property annexed to any municipal corporation or utility district, and
(vi) execute and deliver to any person any instrument appropriate to confirm or
effect such grants, releases, dedications and transfers.
Section 3.03. Mortgagee's Power. At any time, or from time to time,
without liability therefor, Mortgagee, without affecting the personal liability
of any person for payment of the Obligations or the effect of this Mortgage upon
the remainder of said Mortgaged Property, may from time to time without notice
(i) release any part of said Mortgaged Property, (ii) consent in writing to the
making of any map or plat thereof, (iii) join in granting any easement thereon,
(iv) join in any extension agreement or any agreement subordinating the lien or
charge hereof, (v) release any person so liable, (vi) extend the maturity or
alter any of the terms of any Obligations, (vii) grant other indulgences, (viii)
take or release any other or additional security for any Obligations, (ix) make
compositions or other arrangements with debtors in relation thereto, or (x)
advance additional funds to protect the security hereof and pay or discharge the
Obligations, and all amounts so advanced shall be secured hereby and shall be
due and payable upon demand by Mortgagee.
ARTICLE IV
EVENTS OF DEFAULT AND REMEDIES
Section 4.01. Events of Default. (a) Each of the following shall be an
event of default under this Mortgage (an "Event of Default"):
(i) If any representation or warranty of Debtor herein was false in
any material respect when made or, in the event that any such
representation or warranty is continuing, becomes false in any material
respect at any time, or if Debtor renders any statement to Mortgagee
relative to Mortgagee or the Mortgaged Property, or any portion thereof,
which at the time of such statement was false in any material respect;
(ii) If any principal, interest or other monetary sum due under the
Note, this Mortgage or any other Loan Document is not paid within five
days after the date when due, or if Debtor fails to pay, prior to
delinquency, any taxes, assessments or other charges the failure of which
to pay will result in the imposition of a lien against the Mortgaged
Property pursuant to Applicable Regulations, subject to the provisions of
Subsection 2.12(b) hereof;
(iii) If Debtor:
(A) becomes insolvent within the meaning of the Code,
(B) files or notifies Mortgagee that it intends to file a
petition for relief under any chapter or provision of the
Code,
(C) initiates a proceeding under any similar law or statute
relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization,
winding up, or adjustment of debts (collectively,
hereinafter, an "Action"),
(D) is not generally paying its debts as the same become due,
and/or
(E) becomes the subject of an involuntary petition under the
Code or other similar involuntary Action (in which case
Debtor shall be required to provide Mortgagee with
immediate notice of the commencement or filing of such
involuntary proceeding, petition or Action), and any of
the following shall have occurred: (i) the involuntary
petition or involuntary Action shall not have been
dismissed within sixty (60) days of the date on which it
was filed or otherwise commenced, (ii) an order for
relief under the Code (or similar order) shall have been
entered by the court in the involuntary proceeding, or
(iii) the court having jurisdiction over such involuntary
proceeding (upon Debtor's motion or other request for
relief) shall not have granted Mortgagee full and final
relief from the automatic stay of Section 362 of the Code
and from any stay issued under Section 105 of the Code
(or any similar stays or injunctions) within sixty (60)
days of the filing or commencement of such involuntary
petition or involuntary Action so that Mortgagee is
thereafter free to exercise any and all of its rights and
remedies under the Loan Documents, and Mortgagee hereby
agrees not to exercise any of its rights or remedies
under the Loan Documents until such time as an Event of
Default (other than the filing of an involuntary petition
under the Code or other similar involuntary Action) shall
have occurred;
(iv) If Debtor fails to observe or perform any of the other
covenants, conditions, or obligations of this Mortgage or any other Loan
Document (after the expiration of any applicable grace and cure period);
or
(v) If there is a breach or default (after the expiration of any
applicable grace and cure period) under the Equipment Loan Agreement or a
breach or default (after the expiration of any applicable grace and cure
period) under (a) any license agreement permitting Debtor to operate the
Mortgaged Property in the manner authorized or if such license agreement
otherwise terminates or expires (without being renewed immediately upon or
prior to such expiration) prior to the scheduled maturity date of the
Note, which default, termination or expiration might reasonably be
expected to result in a material adverse effect on Debtor, Debtor's
business operations or the Mortgaged Property, or (b) any other agreement
or instrument, including, without limitation, promissory notes and
guaranties, between, among or by any of the Debtor Entities and, or for
the benefit of, any of the Mortgagee Entities.
(b) If any Event of Default occurs pursuant to subsection (a)(ii) above,
Mortgagee shall not be entitled to exercise its remedies set forth in Section
4.02 below unless and until Mortgagee shall have given Debtor notice thereof and
a period of five days from the delivery of such notice shall have elapsed
without such Event of Default being cured.
(c) If any such event does not involve the payment of any principal,
interest or other monetary sum due under the Note to Mortgagee, is not willful,
intentional or being contested in good faith in accordance with the terms of
this Mortgage, does not place any material rights, collateral or property of
Mortgagee in immediate jeopardy in any material respect, and is within the
reasonable power of Debtor to promptly cure after receipt of notice thereof, all
as determined by Mortgagee in its reasonable discretion, then such event shall
not constitute an Event of Default hereunder, unless otherwise expressly
provided herein, unless and until Mortgagee shall have given Debtor notice
thereof and a period of 30 days shall have elapsed, during which period Debtor
may correct or cure such event, upon failure of which an Event of Default shall
be deemed to have occurred hereunder without further notice or demand of any
kind. If such event cannot reasonably be cured within such 30-day period, as
determined by Mortgagee in its reasonable discretion, and Debtor is diligently
pursuing a cure of such event, then Debtor shall have a reasonable period to
cure such event, which shall in no event exceed 90 days after receiving notice
of the event from Mortgagee. If Debtor shall fail to correct or cure such event
within such 90-day period, an Event of Default shall be deemed to have occurred
hereunder without further notice or demand of any kind.
Section 4.02. Remedies. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default,
subject to the limitation set forth in Section 4.01(b) or (c), Mortgagee may
declare all Obligations to be due and payable, and the same shall thereupon
become due and payable without any presentment, demand, protest or notice
(including notice of intent to accelerate) of any kind except as otherwise
provided herein. Furthermore, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default,
Mortgagee may:
(i) Either in person or by agent, with or without bringing any
action or proceeding, or by a receiver appointed by a court, and without
regard to the adequacy of its security, enter upon and take possession of
the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof and do any acts which it deems
necessary or desirable to preserve the value, marketability or rentability
of the Mortgaged Property, or part thereof or interest therein, increase
the income therefrom or protect the security hereof and, with or without
taking possession of the Mortgaged Property, take any action described
herein, xxx for or otherwise collect the Rents, issues and profits
thereof, including those past due and unpaid, and apply the same, less
costs and expenses of operation and collection including reasonable
attorneys' fees, upon any Obligations, all in such order as Mortgagee may
determine. The entering upon and taking possession of the Mortgaged
Property, the taking of any action described herein, the collection of
such Rents, issues and profits and the application thereof as aforesaid,
shall not cure or waive any Event of Default or notice of default or
invalidate any act done in response to such Event of Default or pursuant
to such notice of default and, notwithstanding the continuance in
possession of the Mortgaged Property or the collection, receipt and
application of rents, issues or profits, Mortgagee shall be entitled to
exercise every right provided for in any of the Loan Documents or by law
upon any Event of Default, including the right to exercise the power of
sale herein conferred;
(ii) Commence an action to foreclose this Mortgage pursuant to this
Mortgage in
a single parcel or in several parcels, appoint a receiver,
specifically enforce any of the covenants hereof or sell the
Mortgaged Property pursuant to the power of sale herein
conferred;
(iii) Exercise any or all of the remedies available to a secured
party under the Uniform Commercial Code as adopted in the
State ("UCC"), and
(iv) Apply any sums then deposited in the impound account described
in Section 2.14 toward payment of the taxes, assessment and
insurance premiums for the Mortgaged Property and/or as a
credit on the Obligations in such priority and proportion as
Mortgagee may determine in its sole discretion.
If Mortgagee elects to sell Debtor's interest in the Mortgaged Property by
exercise of the power of sale herein contained, Mortgagee shall cause such sale
to be performed in the manner then required by law.
(a) Mortgagee may sell the Mortgaged Property. The power is hereby
granted to Mortgagee to sell the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof at
public auction, after all notices required by applicable law, if any, and
to convey the same to the purchaser after notice if required by the
statutes of the Sate of Michigan for foreclosure of mortgages by
advertisement, being Sections 600.3201 et. seq., Michigan Compiled Laws,
as amended.
CAUTION: This Section contains a waiver of important legal rights.
This Mortgage contains a power of sale which permits the Mortgagee to
cause the Mortgaged Property to be sold upon the occurrence of an Event of
Default. The Mortgagee may elect to cause the Mortgaged Property to be
sold by advertisement rather than pursuant to court action, and Debtor
hereby voluntarily and knowingly waives any right Debtor may have by
virtue of any applicable constitutional provision or statute to any notice
or court hearing prior to the exercise of the power of sale, except as may
be expressly required by the Michigan statute governing foreclosures by
advertisement. By execution of this Mortgage, Debtor represents and
acknowledges that the meaning and consequences of this Section have been
discussed as fully desired by Debtor with its legal counsel.
(b) As may be permitted by law, Mortgagee shall apply the proceeds
of sale to payment of (i) first, to payment of all costs, fees and
expenses, including attorneys' fees and expenses incurred by the Mortgagee
in exercising the power of sale or foreclosing this Mortgage, and (ii)
second, as directed by Mortgagee or as may be required by law.
(c) Mortgagee may in the manner provided by law postpone sale of all
or any portion of the Mortgaged Property.
Section 4.03. Appointment of Receiver. If an Event of Default shall have
occurred, Mortgagee, as a matter of right and without notice to Debtor or anyone
claiming under Debtor, and
without regard to the then value of the Mortgaged Property or the interest of
Debtor therein, or the insolvency of Debtor or the then-owner of the Mortgaged
Property, may seek the appointment of a receiver for the Mortgaged Property upon
ex parte application to any court of the competent jurisdiction. Debtor waives
any right to any hearing or notice of hearing prior to the appointment of a
receiver. Such receiver shall be empowered (a) to take possession of the
Mortgaged Property and any businesses conducted by Debtor thereon and any
business assets used in connection therewith, (b) to exclude Debtor and Debtor's
agents, servants and employees from the Mortgaged Property, or, at the option of
the receiver, in lieu of such exclusion, to collect a fair market rental from
any such persons occupying any part of the Mortgaged Property, (c) to collect
the rents, issues, profits and income therefrom, (d) to complete any
construction that may be in progress, (e) to continue the development, marketing
and sale of the Mortgaged Property, (f) to do such maintenance and make such
repairs and alterations as the receiver deems necessary, (g) to use all stores
of materials, supplies and maintenance equipment on the Mortgaged Property and
replace such items at the expense of the receivership estate, (h) to pay all
taxes and assessments against the Mortgaged Property, all premiums for insurance
thereon, all utility and other operating expenses, and all sums due under any
prior or subsequent encumbrance, (i) to request that Mortgagee advance such
funds as may reasonably be necessary to the effective exercise of the receiver's
powers, on such terms as may be agreed upon by the receiver and Mortgagee, but
not in excess of the Default Rate (as defined in the Note), and (j) generally to
do anything that Debtor could legally do if Debtor were in possession of the
Mortgaged Property. All expenses incurred by the receiver or his agents,
including obligations to repay funds borrowed by the receiver, shall constitute
a part of the Obligations. Any revenues collected by the receiver shall be
applied first to the expenses of the receivership, including reasonable
attorneys' fees incurred by the receiver and by Mortgagee, together with
interest thereon at the highest rate of interest applicable in the Note from the
date incurred until repaid, and the balance shall be applied toward the
Obligations or in such other manner as the court may direct.
Section 4.04. Remedies Not Exclusive. Mortgagee shall be entitled to
enforce payment and performance of any Obligations and to exercise all rights
and powers under this Mortgage or under any Loan Documents or other agreement or
any laws now or hereafter in force, notwithstanding some or all of the
Obligations may now or hereafter be otherwise secured, whether by mortgage, deed
of trust, pledge, lien, assignment or otherwise. Neither the acceptance of this
Mortgage nor its enforcement, whether by court action or pursuant to the power
of sale or other powers herein contained, shall prejudice or in any manner
affect Mortgagee's right to realize upon or enforce any other security now or
hereafter held by Mortgagee, it being agreed that Mortgagee shall be entitled to
enforce this Mortgage and any other security now or hereafter held by Mortgagee
in such order and manner as it may in its absolute discretion determine. No
remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to Mortgagee is intended to be
exclusive of any other remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at
law or in equity or by statute. Every power or remedy given by any of the Loan
Documents to Mortgagee, or to which Mortgagee may be otherwise entitled, may be
exercised, concurrently or independently, from time to time and as often as may
be deemed expedient by Mortgagee. Mortgagee may pursue inconsistent remedies.
The acceptance by Mortgagee of any sum after the same is due shall not
constitute a waiver
of the right either to require prompt payment, when due, of all other sums
hereby secured or to declare a subsequent Event of Default as herein provided.
The acceptance by Mortgagee of any sum in an amount less than the sum then due
shall be deemed an acceptance on account only and upon condition that it shall
not constitute a waiver of the obligation of Debtor to pay the entire sum then
due, and failure of Debtor to pay such entire sum then due as contemplated by
Section 4.01(b) shall be an Event of Default, notwithstanding such acceptance of
such amount on account, as aforesaid. Mortgagee shall be, at all times
thereafter and until the entire sum then due shall have been paid, and
notwithstanding the acceptance by Mortgagee thereafter of further sums on
account, or otherwise, entitled to exercise all rights in this instrument
conferred upon them or either of them, and the right to proceed with a sale
under any notice of default, or an election to sell, or the right to exercise
any other rights or remedies hereunder, shall in no way be impaired, whether any
of such amounts are received prior or subsequent to such proceeding, election or
exercise. Consent by Mortgagee to any action or inaction of Debtor which is
subject to consent or approval of Mortgagee hereunder shall not be deemed a
waiver of the right to require such consent or approval to future or successive
actions or inactions, unless otherwise specifically provided therein.
Section 4.05. Possession of Mortgaged Property. In the event of a
trustee's sale or foreclosure sale hereunder and after the time of such sale,
Debtor occupies the portion of the Mortgaged Property so sold, or any part
thereof, Debtor shall immediately become the tenant of the purchaser at such
sale, which tenancy shall be a tenancy from day to day, terminable at the will
of either tenant or landlord, at a reasonable rental per day based upon the
value of the portion of the Mortgaged Property so occupied, such rental to be
due and payable daily to the purchaser. An action of unlawful detainer shall lie
if the tenant holds over after a demand in writing for possession of such
Mortgaged Property; and this agreement and a trustee's or sheriff's deed shall
constitute a lease and agreement under which the tenant's possession arose and
continued. Nothing contained in this Mortgage shall be construed to constitute
Mortgagee as a "mortgagee in possession" in the absence of its taking actual
possession of the Mortgaged Property pursuant to the powers granted herein.
Section 4.06. Waiver of Rights. To the extent permitted by law, Debtor
waives the benefit of all laws now existing or that hereafter may be enacted (i)
providing for any appraisement before sale of any portion of the Mortgaged
Property, or (ii) in any way extending the time for the enforcement of the
collection of the Obligations or creating or extending a period of redemption
from any sale made in collecting the Obligations. To the full extent Debtor may
do so under applicable law, Debtor agrees that Debtor will not at any time
insist upon, plea, claim or take the benefit or advantage of any law now or
hereafter in force providing for any appraisement, valuation, stay, extension,
redemption or homestead exemption, and Debtor, for Debtor, Debtor's
representatives, successors and assigns, and for any and all persons ever
claiming any interest in the Mortgaged Property, to the extent permitted by law,
hereby waives and releases all rights of redemption, valuation, appraisement,
stay of execution, homestead exemption, notice of election to mature or declare
due the whole of the Obligations and marshaling in the event of foreclosure of
the liens hereby created. If any law referred to in this Section and now in
force, of which Debtor, Debtor's heirs, devisees, representatives, successors
and assigns or other person might take advantage despite this Section, shall
hereafter be repealed or cease to be in force, such law shall not
thereafter be deemed to preclude the application of this Section. Debtor
expressly waives and relinquishes any and all rights, remedies and defenses that
Debtor may have or be able to assert by reason of the laws of the State
pertaining to the rights, remedies and defenses of sureties.
Section 4.07. Relief From Stay. In the event that Debtor commences a case
under the Code or is the subject of an involuntary case that results in an order
for relief under the Code, subject to court approval, Mortgagee shall thereupon
be entitled and Debtor irrevocably consents to relief from any stay imposed by
Section 362 of the Code on or against the exercise of the rights and remedies
otherwise available to Mortgagee as provided in the Loan Documents and Debtor
hereby irrevocably waives its rights to object to such relief. In the event
Debtor shall commence a case under the Code or is the subject of an involuntary
case that results in an order for relief under the Code, Debtor hereby agrees
that no injunctive relief against Mortgagee shall be sought under Section 105 or
other provisions of the Code by Debtor or other person or entity claiming
through Debtor, nor shall any extension be sought of the stay provided by
Section 362 of the Code.
Section 4.08. Cash Collateral. To the fullest extent allowed by applicable
law, Debtor hereby acknowledges and agrees that in the event that Debtor
commences a case under the Code or is the subject of an involuntary case that
results in an order for relief under the Code: (i) that all of the Rents are,
and shall for purposes be deemed to be, "proceeds, product, offspring, rents, or
profits" of the Premises covered by the lien of this Mortgage, as such quoted
terms are used in Section 552(b) of the Code; (ii) that in no event shall Debtor
assert, claim or contend that any portion of the Rents are, or should be deemed
to be, "accounts" or "accounts receivable" within the meaning of the Code and/or
applicable state law; (iii) that the Rents are and shall be deemed to be in any
such bankruptcy proceeding "cash collateral" of Mortgagee as that term is
defined in Section 363 of the Code; and (iv) that Mortgagee has valid,
effective, perfected, enforceable and "xxxxxx" rights in and to the Rents
without any further action required on the part of Mortgagee to enforce or
perfect its rights in and to such cash collateral, including, without
limitation, providing notice to Debtor under Section 546(b) of the Code.
Section 4.09. Assignment of Rents and Leases. (a) Debtor hereby assigns,
transfers, conveys and sets over to Mortgagee all of Debtor's estate, right,
title and interest in, to and under all leases, whether existing on the date
hereof or hereafter entered into (including any extensions, modifications or
amendments thereto) relating to the Premises (the "Leases"), together with all
rights, powers, privileges, options and other benefits of Debtor as the lessor
or lessee under the Leases regarding the current tenants and any future tenants,
and all the rents, revenues, profits and income from the Leases with respect to
the Premises, excluding Debtor's accounts receivable and those of its tenants
and subtenants, including those now due, past due or to become due. Debtor
irrevocably appoints Mortgagee its true and lawful attorney-in-fact, at the
option of Mortgagee, at any time and from time to time upon an Event of Default,
to take possession and control of the Premises, pursuant to Debtor's rights as
lessor under the Leases, and to demand, receive and enforce payment, to give
receipts, releases and satisfaction and to xxx, in the name of Debtor or
Mortgagee, for all of the rents, revenues, profits and income thereof. It is
intended by Debtor and Mortgagee that the assignment set forth herein
constitutes an absolute assignment and not merely an assignment for additional
security. The consideration received by Debtor to execute and deliver
this assignment and the liens and security interests created herein is legally
sufficient and will provide a direct economic benefit to Debtor. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, however, so long as there is no Event of Default (taking into
consideration the expiration of any applicable cure period), Debtor shall have a
license, revocable upon such Event of Default, to possess and control the
Premises and collect and receive all rents, revenues, profits and income. Upon
an Event of Default (after the expiration of any applicable grace and cure
period), such license shall be automatically revoked.
(b) Upon any Event of Default (after the expiration of any applicable
grace and cure period), Mortgagee may, at any time without notice (except if
required by applicable law), either in person, by agent or by a court-appointed
receiver, regardless of the adequacy of Mortgagee's security, and at its sole
election (without any obligation to do so), enter upon and take possession and
control of the Premises, or any part thereof, to perform all acts necessary and
appropriate to operate and maintain the Premises, including, but not limited to,
execute, cancel or modify the Leases, make repairs to the Premises, execute or
terminate contracts providing for the management or maintenance of the Premises,
all on such terms as are deemed best to protect the security of this assignment,
and in Mortgagee's or Debtor's name, xxx or otherwise collect such rents,
revenues, profits and income from the Premises as specified in this Mortgage as
the same become due and payable, including, but not limited to, rents then due
and unpaid. Mortgagee may so xxx for or otherwise collect such rents, revenues,
profits and income with or without taking possession of the Premises. All rents
collected shall be held by Debtor as trustee for the benefit of Mortgagee only.
Debtor agrees that upon an Event of Default, each tenant of the Premises shall
make its rent payable to and pay such rent to Mortgagee (or Mortgagee's agents)
on Mortgagee's written demand therefor, delivered to such tenant personally, by
mail, or by delivering such demand to each rental unit, without any liability on
the part of said tenant to inquire further as to the existence of an Event of
Default by Debtor.
(c) All rents, revenues, profits and income collected subsequent to any
Event of Default shall be applied at the direction of, and in such order as
determined by, Mortgagee to the costs, if any, of taking possession and control
of and managing the Premises and collecting such amounts, including, but not
limited to, reasonable attorney's fees, actual receiver's fees, actual premiums
on receiver's bonds, actual costs of repairs to the Premises, actual premiums on
insurance policies, taxes, assessments and other charges on the Premises, and
the actual costs of discharging any obligation or liability of Debtor as lessor
or landlord of the Premises and to the sums secured by this assignment.
Mortgagee or the receiver shall have access to the books and records used in the
operation and maintenance of the Premises and shall be liable to account only
for those rents actually received. Mortgagee shall not be liable to Debtor,
anyone claiming under or through Debtor or anyone having an interest in the
Premises by reason of anything done or left undone by Mortgagee hereunder,
except to the extent of Mortgagee's gross negligence or willful misconduct.
Any entering upon and taking possession and control of the Premises by
Mortgagee or the receiver and any application of rents, revenues, profits and
income as provided herein shall not cure or waive any Event of Default hereunder
or invalidate any other right or remedy of Mortgagee under applicable law or
provided therein.
ARTICLE V
MISCELLANEOUS
Section 5.01. Satisfaction. If and when the Note shall have become due and
payable (whether by lapse of time or by acceleration or by the exercise of the
privilege of prepayment), and Debtor shall pay or cause to be paid (provided
such payment is permitted or required hereby) the full amount thereof and shall
also pay or cause to be paid all other sums then due and payable by Debtor to
Mortgagee with respect to the Note and the Mortgaged Property, including,
without limitation, all sums advanced by Mortgagee pursuant to this Mortgage,
and provided no Event of Default shall have occurred or is continuing with
respect to the Obligations, then this Mortgage shall be void (otherwise it shall
remain in full force and effect in law and equity forever) and Mortgagee agrees
to execute an instrument evidencing the satisfaction of all obligations under
this Mortgage and releasing this Mortgage which shall be prepared and recorded
at Debtor's sole expense.
Section 5.02. Limitation of Rights of Others. Nothing in this Mortgage is
intended or shall be construed to give to any person, other than Debtor,
Mortgagee and the holder of the Note, any legal or equitable right, remedy or
claim under or in respect of this Mortgage or any covenant, condition or
provision herein contained.
Section 5.03. Severability. In case any one or more of the provisions
contained herein or in the Note shall be held to be invalid, illegal or
unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability
shall not affect any other provision hereof, and this Mortgage shall be
construed as if such provision had never been contained herein or therein.
Section 5.04. Notices; Amendments; Waiver. All notices, demands,
designations, certificates, requests, offers, consents, approvals, appointments
and other instruments given pursuant to this Mortgage (collectively called
"Notices") shall be in writing and given by (i) hand delivery, (ii) facsimile
followed by a copy sent by mail in accordance with clause (iv) hereof, (iii)
express overnight delivery service or (iv) certified or registered mail, return
receipt requested, postage prepaid, and shall be deemed to have been delivered
upon (a) receipt, if hand delivered, (b) transmission, if delivered by
facsimile, (c) the next business day, if delivered by express overnight delivery
service, or (d) the fifth business day following the day of deposit of such
notice with the United States Postal Service, if sent by certified or registered
mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid. Notices shall be provided to

giving thereof may be waived in writing at any time by the person or persons
entitled to receive such Notice. Except as in this Mortgage otherwise expressly
provided, (i) this Mortgage may not be modified except by an instrument in
writing executed by Debtor and Mortgagee and (ii) no requirement hereof may be
waived at any time except by a writing signed by the party against whom such
waiver is sought to be enforced, nor shall any waiver be deemed a waiver of any
subsequent breach or default.
Section 5.05. Counterparts. This Mortgage may be executed in any number of
counterparts and each thereof shall be deemed to be an original; and all such
counterparts shall constitute but one and the same instrument.
Section 5.06. Successors and Assigns. All of the provisions herein
contained shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the respective
successors and assigns of the parties hereto, to the same extent as if each such
successor and assign were in each case named as a party to this Mortgage.

the singular and the use of any gender shall include all genders.
Section 5.07. Headings. The headings appearing in this Mortgage have been
inserted for convenient reference only and shall not modify, define, limit or
expand the express provisions of this Mortgage.
Section 5.08. Security Agreement. With respect to the Personal Property or
any portion of the Mortgaged Property which constitutes fixtures or other
property governed by the UCC, this Mortgage shall constitute a security
agreement between Debtor as the debtor and Mortgagee as the secured party, and
Debtor hereby grants to Mortgagee a security interest in such portion of the
Mortgaged Property. Cumulative of all other rights of Mortgagee hereunder,
Mortgagee shall have all of the rights conferred upon secured parties by the
UCC. Debtor will execute and deliver to Mortgagee all financing statements that
may from time to time be required by Mortgagee to establish and maintain the
validity and priority of the security interest of Mortgagee, or any modification
thereof, and all costs and expenses of any searches required by Mortgagee.
Mortgagee may exercise any or all of the remedies of a secured party available
to it under the UCC with respect to such property, and it is expressly agreed
that if upon an Event of Default (after the expiration of any applicable grace
and cure period) Mortgagee should proceed to dispose of such property in
accordance with the provisions of the UCC, 10 days' notice by Mortgagee to
Debtor shall be deemed to be reasonable notice under any provision of the UCC
requiring such notice; provided, however, that Mortgagee may at its option
dispose of such property in accordance with Mortgagee's rights and remedies with
respect to the real property pursuant to the provisions of this Mortgage, in
lieu of proceeding under the UCC.
Debtor shall give advance notice in writing to Mortgagee of any proposed
change in Debtor's name, identity, or business form or structure and will
execute and deliver to Mortgagee, prior to or concurrently with the occurrence
of any such change, all additional financing statements that Mortgagee may
require to establish and maintain the validity and priority of Mortgagee's
security interest with respect to any of the Mortgaged Property described or
referred to herein.
Section 5.09. Effective as a Financing Statement. This Mortgage shall be
effective as a financing statement filed as a fixture filing with respect to all
fixtures included within the Mortgaged Property and is to be filed for record in
the real estate records of each county where any part of the Mortgaged Property
(including said fixtures) is situated. This Mortgage shall also be effective as
a financing statement covering any other Mortgaged Property and may be filed in
any other appropriate filing or recording office. The mailing address of Debtor
is the address of Debtor set forth in the introductory paragraph of this
Mortgage, and the address of the Mortgagee from which information concerning the
security interests hereunder may be obtained is the address of Mortgagee as set
forth in the introductory paragraph of this Mortgage. A carbon, photographic or
other reproduction of this Mortgage or of any financing statement relating to
this Mortgage shall be
sufficient as a financing statement for any of the purposes referred to in this
Section.
Section 5.10. Characterization; Interpretation. It is the intent of the
parties hereto that the business relationship created by the Note, this Mortgage
and the other Loan Documents is solely that of creditor and debtor and has been
entered into by both parties in reliance upon the economic and legal bargains
contained in the Loan Documents. None of the agreements contained in the Loan
Documents is intended, nor shall the same be deemed or construed, to create a
partnership between Mortgagee and Debtor, to make them joint venturers, to make
Debtor an agent, legal representative, partner, subsidiary or employee of
Mortgagee, nor to make Mortgagee in any way responsible for the debts,
obligations or losses of Debtor. Debtor acknowledges that Mortgagee and Licensor
are not affiliates, agents, partners or joint venturers, nor do they have any
other legal, representative or fiduciary relationship.
Mortgagee and Debtor acknowledge and warrant to each other that each has
been represented by independent counsel and has executed this Mortgage after
being fully advised by said counsel as to its effect and significance. This
Mortgage shall be interpreted and construed in a fair and impartial manner
without regard to such factors as the party which prepared the instrument, the
relative bargaining powers of the parties or the domicile of any party.
Section 5.11. Time of the Essence. Time is of the essence in the
performance of each and every obligation under this Mortgage.
Section 5.12. Document Review. In the event Debtor makes any request upon
Mortgagee requiring Mortgagee or its attorneys to review and/or prepare (or
cause to be reviewed and/or prepared) any document or documents in connection
with or arising out of or as a result of this Mortgage, then, except as
expressly stated elsewhere herein, Debtor shall reimburse Mortgagee or its
designee promptly upon Mortgagee's demand therefor a reasonable processing and
reviewing fee in an amount not less than $500.00 for each such request.
Section 5.13. Estoppel Certificate. (a) At any time, and from time to
time, Debtor agrees, promptly and in no event later than 10 days after a request
from Mortgagee, to execute, acknowledge and deliver to Mortgagee a certificate
in the form supplied by Mortgagee, certifying: (1) the date to which principal
and interest have been paid under the Note and the amount thereof then payable;
(2) whether or not notice has been received by Debtor of any default under this
Mortgage which has not been cured, except as to defaults specified in the
certificate; (3) whether or not, to Debtor's knowledge, Debtor has any claims or
causes of action against Mortgagee or any claims or rights of setoff or any
defenses to the enforcement of any of the Loan Documents in accordance with
their respective terms; and (4) the capacity of the person executing such
certificate, and that such person is duly authorized to execute the same on
behalf of Debtor.
(b) If Debtor shall fail or refuse to sign a certificate in accordance
with the provisions of this Section within 10 Business Days following a request
by Mortgagee, Debtor irrevocably constitutes and appoints Mortgagee as its
attorney-in-fact to execute and deliver the certificate to any such third party,
it being stipulated that such power of attorney is coupled with an interest and
is irrevocable and binding.
Section 5.14. Limitation of Interest. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained in any of the Loan Documents, the obligations of Debtor to
Mortgagee under the Note, this Mortgage and any other Loan Documents are subject
to the limitation that payments of interest and late charges to Mortgagee shall
not be required to the extent that receipt of any such payment by Mortgagee
would be contrary to provisions of applicable law limiting the maximum rate of
interest that may be charged or collected by Mortgagee. The portion of any such
payment received by Mortgagee that is in excess of the maximum interest
permitted by such provisions of law shall be credited to the principal balance
of the Note or if such excess portion exceeds the outstanding principal balance
of the Note, then such excess portion shall be refunded to Debtor. All interest
paid or agreed to be paid to Mortgagee shall, to the extent permitted by
applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated and/or spread throughout the
full term of the Note (including, without limitation, the period of any renewal
or extension thereof) so that interest for such full term shall not exceed the
maximum amount permitted by applicable law.
Section 5.15. Forum Selection; Jurisdiction; Venue; Choice of Law. Debtor
acknowledges that this Mortgage was substantially negotiated in the State of
Arizona, the executed Mortgage was delivered in the State of Arizona, all
payments under the Loan Documents will be delivered in the State of Arizona and
there are substantial contacts between the parties and the transactions
contemplated herein and the State of Arizona. For purposes of any action or
proceeding arising out of this Mortgage, the parties hereto expressly submit to
the jurisdiction of all federal and state courts located in the State of
Arizona. Debtor consents that it may be served with any process or paper by
registered mail or by personal service within or without the State of Arizona in
accordance with applicable law. Furthermore, Debtor waives and agrees not to
assert in any such action, suit or proceeding that it is not personally subject
to the jurisdiction of such courts, that the action, suit or proceeding is
brought in an inconvenient forum or that venue of the action, suit or proceeding
is improper. The creation of this Mortgage and the rights and remedies of
Mortgagee with respect to the Mortgaged Property, as provided herein and by the
laws of the State, shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the
internal laws of the State without regard to principles of conflict of law. With
respect to other provisions of this Mortgage, this Mortgage shall be governed by
the internal laws of the State of Arizona. Nothing in this Section shall limit
or restrict the right of Mortgagee to commence any proceeding in the federal or
state courts located in the State to the extent Mortgagee deems such proceeding
necessary or advisable to exercise remedies available under the Mortgage or the
other Loan Documents.
Section 5.16. Indemnification. Except for the gross negligence or willful
misconduct of Mortgagee, Debtor shall indemnify and hold harmless Mortgagee and
Mortgagee's shareholders, directors, officers, agents, and employees from and
against any and all claims, demands, causes of action, suits, proceedings,
liabilities, damages, losses, costs and expenses, including attorneys' fees,
caused by, incurred or resulting from its operations of or relating in any
manner to the Mortgaged Property, whether relating to their original design or
construction, latent defects, alteration, maintenance, use by Debtor or any
person thereon, supervision or otherwise, or from any breach of, default under
or failure to perform any term or provision of this Mortgage by Debtor, its
officers, employees, agents or other persons. It is expressly understood and
agreed that Debtor's obligations under this Section shall survive the expiration
or earlier termination of this Mortgage for any reason.
Section 5.17. Waiver of Jury Trial and Punitive, Consequential, Special
and Indirect Damages. MORTGAGEE, BY ACCEPTING THIS MORTGAGE, AND DEBTOR HEREBY
KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVE THE RIGHT EITHER MAY HAVE TO A
TRIAL BY JURY WITH RESPECT TO ANY AND ALL ISSUES PRESENTED IN ANY ACTION,
PROCEEDING, CLAIM OR COUNTERCLAIM BROUGHT BY EITHER OF THE PARTIES HERETO
AGAINST THE OTHER OR ITS SUCCESSORS WITH RESPECT TO ANY MATTER ARISING OUT OF OR
IN CONNECTION WITH THIS MORTGAGE, THE RELATIONSHIP OF MORTGAGEE AND DEBTOR,

OR DAMAGE, OR ANY EMERGENCY OR STATUTORY REMEDY. THIS WAIVER BY THE PARTIES
HERETO OF ANY RIGHT EITHER MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY HAS BEEN NEGOTIATED AND
IS AN ESSENTIAL ASPECT OF THEIR BARGAIN. FURTHERMORE, DEBTOR HEREBY KNOWINGLY,
VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVES THE RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO SEEK PUNITIVE,
CONSEQUENTIAL, SPECIAL AND INDIRECT DAMAGES FROM MORTGAGEE WITH RESPECT TO ANY
AND ALL ISSUES PRESENTED IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING, CLAIM OR COUNTERCLAIM

or assign the Note, this Mortgage and the other Loan Documents, and any or all
servicing rights with respect thereto, or grant participations therein or issue
