10.1 REVOCATION OF LICENSES
Upon Default, the Lender may by Notice to the Borrower immediately terminate the Borrower’s licenses under either or both of Sections 4 and 5 of this Assignment, regardless of whether the Real Property or any other collateral adequately secures the Loan’s eventual repayment. Upon the termination of the Borrower’s license under Section 4, the Borrower shall immediately deliver to the Lender all Rents then in the Borrower’s possession, and all Rents then due or accruing thereafter shall be payable by tenants directly to the Lender. This Assignment shall constitute a direction to and full authority to any tenant of the Real Property, upon the Lender’s written request to pay all Rents to the Lender, without requiring the Lender to prove to the tenant the existence of Default. The Borrower agrees to deliver immediately to the Lender any Rents received by the Borrower after the revocation of the Borrower’s license under Section 4, and at the Lender’s written request, shall execute such further assignments to the Lender of any Lease as the Lender may in its sole judgment request. This Assignment is given in connection with the Loan and in support of the performance of the Borrower’s Obligations, and nothmg herein contained shall be construed as (a) constituting the Lender a “mortgagee-in-possession” of the Real Property or (b) an assumption by the Lender of the Borrower’s obligations as landlord under the Leases.
10.2 APPLICATION OF RENTS
The Lender shall apply Rents it collects as follows: (i) first, to the payment of late and other charges, if any, due and payable under the Loan Documents; (ii) second, to the repayment of any sums advanced by the Lender for the payment of any insurance premiums, taxes, assessments or other impositions or charges against the Real Property; (iii) third, to the payment of any other sums due from the Borrower to the Lender pursuant to the Loan Documents (other than the amounts described in clauses (v) and (vi) below); (iv) fourth, to the payment of any obligations of the Borrower under the Environmental Indemnity Agreement; fifth, to the payment of interest and principal then due under the Note; (vi) sixth, to the establishment and maintenance of an impound account for the payment of impositions on the Real Property in accordance with the Loan Documents; (vii) seventh, to the payment to unaffiliated third parties of ordinary expenses incurred in connection with operation of the Real Property, including reasonable and customary third-party management fees not exceeding four percent (4%) of effective gross income; (viii) eighth, to establish a fund to be held by the Lender in its general account, without interest, as additional security for the Loan pending the cure of all Defaults, and to be disbursed by the Lender in its reasonable discretion to permit such Defaults to be cured; and (ix) ninth, after the cure of all Defaults and only thereafter, the balance of the Rents shall be distributed to the Borrower or to the order of the Borrower.
10.3 NO ACCORD AND SATISFACTION OR WAIVER
The Borrower agrees that the Lender’s exercise of its rights under this Section shall give rise to neither (a) an accord and satisfaction with respect to any obligation not fully performed by the Borrower or completely satisfied through the application of Rents by the Lender, nor (b) a waiver of any rights or remedies of the Lender.
10.4 DEFAULT INTEREST
Default under this Assignment is a “Default” under the terns of the Deed of Trust. The Lender is therefore entitled, at its sole discretion, to elect for interest on the Loan to accrue at the Default Rate specified in the Note until the Default is cured.
10.5 REINSTATEMENT OF THE BORROWER’S LICENSES
Upon the cure of all Defaults, the Lender may by Notice to the Borrower, reinstate the licenses of the borrower under Sections 4 and 5.1 of this Assignment.
10.6 ADDITIONAL NORTH CAROLINA REMEDIES
The Borrower expressly agrees that the Lender shall have, in addition to all other rights and remedies set forth elsewhere in this Assignment, all the rights regarding enforcement of assignments of rents and leases, or otherwise available under North Carolina law.
11. | POWER OF ATTORNEY |
The Borrower appoints the Lender as its attorney-in-fact, coupled with an interest, with full power of substitution, in the name, place, and stead of the Borrower to do, while a Default exists, all things and to perform all acts with respect to the Leases and the Real Property authorized by the terms of this assignment, as the Lender may determine from time to time in its discretion.
12. | WAIVER OF CLAIMS |
The Borrower waives any right, claim, or demand it may now or hereafter have against any tenant by reason of payment of Rents to the Lender at the Lender’s request following a Default.
13. | LENDER NOT MORTGAGEE-IN-POSSESSION |
Acceptance by the Lender of this Assignment shall not, prior to entry upon and taking of possession of the Real Property by the Lender, be deemed or construed to constitute the Lender a mortgagee in possession of the Real Property, nor shall the Lender be deemed to have assumed, by accepting this Assignment, the landlord’s obligations to any tenant. In particular, acceptance by Lender of this Assignment shall not obligate the Lender (a) to appear in or to defend any action or proceeding relating to the Leases or to the Real Property, (b) to perform any obligation as landlord under the Leases, (c) to pay any amount or to assume any future financial obligation of the landlord, including any obligation to pay to any tenant a security or other deposit not actually received by the Lender or (d) to indemnify any tenant for any injury or damage to person or property sustained by any person or persons, firm or corporation in or about the Real Property.
14. | CUMULATIVE REMEDIES |
The Lender may take or release other security, may release any party primarily or secondarily liable for any Obligation, may grant extensions, renewals or indulgences with respect to such indebtedness, and may apply any other security therefore held by it to the satisfaction of such indebtedness without prejudice to any of its rights hereunder. Nothing herein contained and no act or omission by the Lender pursuant to the powers and rights granted it herein shall he deemed to be a waiver by the Lender of its rights and remedies under any of the Loan Documents, or shall prejudice any of the rights and remedies possessed by the Lender under their terms. The right of the Lender to collect the Loan or additional Obligations may be exercised by the Lender prior to, simultaneously with, or subsequently to any action taken by the Lender under this Assignment.
15. | EXPENSES |
Any expenses incurred by the Lender in exercising its remedies under this Assignment after the occurrence of a Default (including attorneys’ fees and costs in enforcing or protecting this Assignment in any bankruptcy proceeding) shall constitute further indebtedness of the Borrower to the Lender and shall be immediately payable to the Lender, together with interest at the Default Rate specified in the Note.
16. | INDEMNIFICATION |
The Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify, defend, and hold the Lender harmless from and against any and all liability, loss, damage or expense (unless such liability, loss, damage or expenses arises through the Lender’s gross negligence or willful misconduct) which the Lender may or might incur under or by reason of this Assignment, or for any lawful action taken by the Lender hereunder, or by reason or in defense of any and all claims and demands whatsoever which may be asserted against the Lender arising out of the Leases, including, without limitation, any claim by any tenant of credit for Rent paid to and received by the Borrower, but not delivered to the Lender, for any period under any Leases more than one month in advance of the due date thereof; and should the Lender incur any such liability, loss, damage or expense, the amount thereof (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) with interest thereon at the rate specified as the Default Rate in the Note shall be payable by the Borrower immediately without demand, and shall be secured hereby and by the Deed of Trust.
