Grantor of, in and to all judgments, insurance proceeds, awards of damages and
settlements hereafter made or resulting from condemnation proceedings or the
taking of the property described in paragraphs (A), (B) and (C) hereof or any
part thereof under the power of eminent domain, or for any damage (whether
caused by such taking or otherwise) to the property described in paragraphs (A),
(B) and (C) hereof or any part thereof, or to any rights appurtenant thereto,
and all proceeds of any sale or other disposition of the property described in
paragraphs (A), (B) and (C) hereof or any part thereof; and Indenture Trustee
is, subject to the provisions of this Deed of Trust, hereby authorized to
collect and receive said awards and proceeds and to give proper receipts and

payment of indebtedness and other sums secured hereby, notwithstanding the fact
that the amount owing thereon may not then be due and payable; and (ii) all

PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that if the Grantor and Guarantors shall promptly pay
or cause to be paid the Obligations secured hereby in accordance with the terms
thereof when the same shall become due and payable and shall keep, perform and
observe all the terms, conditions and requirements of the Notes, the Indenture,
the Indenture Documents and of this Deed of Trust, then, upon complete payment
and satisfaction thereof, this Deed of Trust shall be null and void and of no
further force and effect and shall be released by Indenture Trustee and Trustee
upon the written request and at the expense of Grantor.

estate in fee simple in, and has good title to, the Property, and has good
right, full power and lawful authority to encumber the same as provided herein
and Indenture Trustee may at all times peaceably and quietly enter upon, hold,
occupy and enjoy the Property in accordance with the terms hereof; (b) the
Property is free and clear of all liens, security interests, charges and

reference and made a part hereof.
1.03 Compliance with Laws. Grantor covenants and warrants that the
Property presently complies in all material respects with and will continue to
comply in all material respects with all applicable restrictive covenants,
applicable zoning and subdivision ordinances and building codes, all applicable
health and environmental laws and regulations and other applicable laws, rules
and regulations which affect the Property and the operations of Grantor on the
Property. If Grantor receives notice from any federal, state or other
governmental body that it is not in compliance with any such covenant,
ordinance, code, law or regulation, Grantor will provide Indenture Trustee with
a copy of such notice and comply with the provisions of such notice promptly if
failure to comply could reasonably be expected to result in a material adverse
effect on the Property or the use, operation or value thereof, or on the
Grantor.
4
1.04 Taxes and Other Charges.
1.04.1 Taxes and Assessments. To the extent required under Section 4.04 of the
Indenture, Grantor shall pay promptly when due all taxes, assessments, rates,
dues, charges, fees, levies, fines, impositions, liabilities, obligations and
encumbrances of every kind whatsoever now or hereafter imposed, levied or
assessed upon or against the Property or any part thereof, or upon or against
this Deed of Trust or the Obligations secured hereby, or upon or against the
security interest of Indenture Trustee in the Property, as well as all income
taxes, assessments and other governmental charges levied and imposed by the
United States of America or any state, county, municipality or other taxing
authority upon or against Grantor or in respect of the Property or any part
thereof.
1.04.2 Mechanic's and Other Liens. Except to the extent permitted by clause (2)
of the definition of Permitted Liens, as defined in the Indenture, Grantor shall
not permit or suffer any mechanic's, laborer's, materialman's, statutory or
other lien (other than any lien for taxes not yet due) to be created upon or
filed against the Property.
1.04.3 Taxes Affecting Holders' Interest. Grantor will promptly pay all income,
franchise and other taxes owing by Grantor and any stamp, documentary,
recordation and transfer taxes or other taxes (unless such payment by Grantor is
prohibited by law) which may be required to be paid with respect to this Deed of
Trust or any instrument evidencing or securing any of the Obligations. In the
event of the enactment after this date of any law of any governmental entity
applicable to Indenture Trustee, the Obligations, the Property or this Deed of
Trust imposing upon Indenture Trustee the payment of the whole or any part of
the taxes or assessments or charges or liens herein required to be paid by
Grantor, or changing in any way the laws relating to the taxation of deeds of
trust or mortgages or security agreements or debts secured by deeds of trust or
mortgages or security agreements or the interest of the mortgagee or secured
party in the property covered thereby, or the manner of collection of such
taxes, so as to affect this Deed of Trust or the Obligations or Indenture
Trustee, then, and in any such event, Grantor, upon demand by Indenture Trustee,
shall pay such taxes, assessments, charges or liens, or reimburse Indenture
Trustee therefor.
1.04.4 Tax Escrow. In order to secure the performance and discharge of Grantor's
obligations under this Section 1.04, but not in lieu of such obligations,
Grantor, upon Indenture Trustee's request after the occurrence of and during the
continuance of an Event of Default, will pay over to Indenture Trustee an amount
equal to one-twelfth (1/12th) of the next maturing annual ad valorem taxes,
assessments and charges (which taxes, assessments and charges, for purposes of
this paragraph, shall include without limitation water and sewer rents, and
shall hereinafter be collectively called "Taxes") of the nature described in
Section 1.04.1 for each month that has elapsed since the last date to which the
Taxes were paid; and Grantor will, in addition, upon Indenture Trustee's
request, pay over to Indenture Trustee together with each installment of the
Obligations sufficient funds (as estimated from time to time by Indenture
Trustee in its sole discretion) to permit Indenture Trustee to pay when due the
Taxes. Upon Indenture Trustee's request, Grantor shall also deliver to Indenture
Trustee such additional monies as are required to make up any deficiencies in
the amounts necessary to enable Indenture Trustee to pay the Taxes. In such
case, Indenture Trustee must timely pay the Taxes or return the additional
monies to Grantor to allow Grantor to pay such Taxes. Such deposits shall not
be, nor be deemed to be,
5
trust funds but may be commingled with the general funds of Indenture Trustee,
and no interest shall be payable in respect thereof. Upon the occurrence of an
Event of Default, Indenture Trustee may apply to the reduction of the
Obligations secured hereby, in such manner as Indenture Trustee shall determine,
any amount under this Section 1.04.4 remaining to Grantor's credit.
1.04.5 No Credit Against the Obligations Secured Hereby. Grantor shall not
claim, demand or be entitled to receive any credit, against the principal or
interest payable on the Obligations for so much of the Taxes assessed against
the Property of any part thereof or that are applicable to the Obligations
secured hereby or to Indenture Trustee's interest in the Property. No deduction
shall be claimed from the taxable value of the Property or any part thereof by
reason of the Obligations, this Deed of Trust or any other instrument securing
the Obligations.
1.04.6 Insurance.
(a) Grantor shall, at its sole expense, keep the Property insured in such
amounts and against such risks and damages as is required under Section 4.05 of
the Indenture. All policies of insurance shall contain an endorsement, in form
and substance reasonably acceptable to Indenture Trustee, showing loss payable
to Indenture Trustee as its interests appear. Such endorsement, or an
independent instrument delivered to Indenture Trustee, shall provide that the
insurance companies will give Indenture Trustee at lease fifteen (15) days prior
written notice before any such policy or policies of insurance shall be altered
in any way that may affect Indenture Trustee's rights thereunder or cancelled
and that no act of default of Grantor or any other person shall affect the right
of Indenture Trustee to recover under such policy or policies or insurance in
case of loss or damage (10 days in the case of cancellation for non-payment of
premium).
(b) In order to secure the performance and discharge of Grantor's obligations
under this Section 1.04.6, but not in lieu of such obligations, Grantor, upon
Indenture Trustee's request after the occurrence of and during the continuance
of an Event of Default, will pay over to Indenture Trustee an amount equal to
one-twelfth (1/12th) of the next maturing annual insurance premiums for each
month that has elapsed since the last date to which such premiums were paid; and
Grantor will, in addition, upon Indenture Trustee's request, pay over to
Indenture Trustee together with each installment on the Obligations sufficient
funds (as estimated from time to time by Indenture Trustee in its sole
discretion) to permit Indenture Trustee to pay said premiums when due. Such
deposits shall not be, nor be deemed to be, trust funds but may be commingled
with the general funds of Indenture Trustee, and no interest shall be payable in
respect thereof. Upon Indenture Trustee's request, Grantor shall also deliver to
Indenture Trustee such additional monies as are necessary to make up any
deficiencies in the amounts necessary to enable Indenture Trustee to pay such
premiums when due. In such case, Indenture Trustee must timely pay the premiums
or return the additional monies to Grantor to allow Grantor to pay the premiums.
(c) Pursuant to its rights granted hereunder in all proceeds from any insurance
policies, Indenture Trustee is hereby authorized and empowered at its option to
adjust or compromise any loss under any insurance policies on the Property and
to collect and receive the proceeds from any such policy or policies. Each
insurance company is hereby authorized and directed to make
6
payment for all such losses directly to Indenture Trustee alone and not to
Grantor and Indenture Trustee jointly. After deducting from such insurance
proceeds any expenses incurred by Indenture Trustee and the other Holders in the
collection or handling of such funds, the net proceeds received by Indenture
Trustee shall apply such amounts as requested by Grantor for the restoration. In
no event, however, shall any advance be made which will result in the funds
remaining with Indenture Trustee being less than the cost of completion of
restoration of the Property as estimated by an architect or engineer reasonably
satisfactory to Indenture Trustee. If, upon completion of restoration of the
Property there remain funds with Indenture Trustee, Indenture Trustee shall pay
the remaining funds. Any funds applied against the Obligations secured hereby
shall be applied to particular Obligations, whether then matured or to mature in
the future, in accordance with the terms of the Indenture. Although Indenture
Trustee intends to use its best efforts to collect such payments in a timely
fashion, Indenture Trustee shall not be responsible for any failure to collect
any insurance proceeds due under the terms of any policy regardless of the cause
of such failure.
1.04.7 Non-Impairment of Indenture Trustee's Rights. Nothing contained in either
of Sections 1.04.4 and 1.04.6(b) shall be deemed to affect any right or remedy
of Indenture Trustee under any provision of this Deed of Trust or of any statute
or rule of law to pay any amount required to be paid by Sections 1.04.1 and
1.04.6 and to add the amount so paid to the Obligations hereby secured. Although
Indenture Trustee intends to use its best efforts to make such payments in a
timely fashion, the arrangements provided in Section 1.04.4 and 1.04.6 are
solely for the added protection of Indenture Trustee and the other Holders and
entail no responsibility on Indenture Trustee's or Holders' part beyond the
allowing of due credit, without interest, for sums actually received by it. Upon
assignment of this Deed of Trust, any funds on hand shall be turned over to the
assignee and any responsibility of Indenture Trustee with respect thereto shall
terminate.
1.05 Condemnation. Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to all
compensation, awards, damages, claims, rights of action and proceeds of, or on
account of, any damage or taking through condemnation and is hereby authorized,
at its option, to commence, appear in and prosecute in its own or the Grantor's
name any action or proceeding relating to any condemnation and to settle or
compromise any claim in connection therewith. All such compensation, awards,
damages, claims, rights of action and proceeds, and any other payments or
relief, and the right thereto, are included in the Property and Indenture
Trustee and the other Holders, after deducting therefrom all of their expenses
including reasonable attorneys' fees incurred in the collection or handling of
such funds, shall apply such amounts as requested by Grantor for the restoration
of the Property. In no event, however, shall any advance be made which will
result in the funds remaining with Indenture Trustee being less than the cost of
completion of restoration of the Property as estimated by an architect or
engineer reasonably satisfactory to Indenture Trustee. If, upon completion of
restoration of the Property there remain funds with Indenture Trustee, Indenture
Trustee shall pay the remaining funds to Grantor. Grantor agrees to execute such
further assignments of any compensation, awards, damages, claims, rights of
action and proceeds as Indenture Trustee may reasonably require. Notwithstanding
any such condemnation, Grantor shall continue to pay interest, computed at the
rate provided in the Notes, on the entire unpaid principal amount thereof.
1.06 Care of Property.
7
(a) Grantor shall preserve and maintain the Property in good condition and
repair, ordinary wear and tear excepted. Grantor shall not permit, commit or
suffer any material waste, impairment or deterioration of the Property or of any
part thereof, and will not take any action which will materially increase the
risk of fire or other hazard to the Property or to any part thereof.
(b) Grantor will not, without the prior written consent of Indenture Trustee,
(i) remove from the Property any fixtures or personal property covered by this
Deed of Trust which materially impairs the value of the Property or (ii) make
any structural alteration to the Property or any other alteration thereto which
materially impairs the value thereof.
(c) Indenture Trustee may enter upon and inspect the Property at any reasonable
time during the life of this Deed of Trust and upon reasonable prior notice.
1.07 Further Assurances. At any time and from time to time, upon Indenture
Trustee's reasonable request, Grantor shall make, execute and deliver, or cause
to be made, executed and delivered, to Indenture Trustee and where appropriate
shall cause to be recorded or filed, and from time to time thereafter to be
re-recorded and refiled at such time and in such offices and places as shall be
deemed desirable by Indenture Trustee, any and all such further deeds of trust,
instruments or further assurance, certificates and other documents as Indenture
Trustee may consider necessary or desirable in order to effectuate, complete, or
perfect, or to continue and preserve the obligations of Grantor under the Notes,
the Indenture Documents and this Deed of Trust, and the lien of this Deed of
Trust as a lien upon all of the Property, whether now owned or hereafter
acquired by Grantor. Upon any failure by Grantor to do so, Indenture Trustee may
make execute, record, file, re-record or refile any and all such deeds of trust,
instruments, certificates and documents for and in the name of Grantor, and
Grantor hereby irrevocably appoints Indenture Trustee as the agent and
attorney-in-fact of Grantor to do so.
1.08 Security Agreements and Financing Statements.
(a) Grantor (as debtor) hereby grants to Indenture Trustee and Holders (as
creditor and secured party) a security interest in all fixtures, machinery,
appliances, equipment, furniture and personal property of every nature
whatsoever constituting part of the Property.
(b) Grantor shall execute any and all such documents, including without
limitation, financing statements pursuant to the applicable Uniform Commercial
Code, as Indenture Trustee may reasonably request, to preserve and maintain the
priority of the lien created hereby on property which may be deemed personal
property or fixtures, and shall pay to Indenture Trustee on demand any expenses
incurred by Indenture Trustee and Holders in connection with the preparation,
execution and filing of any such documents. This Deed of Trust shall also
constitute a "fixture filing" for purposes of the applicable Uniform Commercial
Code. Grantor hereby authorizes and empowers Indenture Trustee to execute and
file, on Grantor's behalf, all financing statements and refilings and
continuations thereof as Indenture Trustee reasonably deems necessary or
advisable to create, preserve and protect said lien. This Deed of Trust shall be
deemed a security agreement as defined in said Uniform Commercial Code and the
remedies for any violation of the covenants, terms and conditions of the
agreements herein contained shall be (i) as prescribed herein, (ii) by general
law, or (iii) as to such part of the security which is also
8
reflected in said financing statement by the specific statutory consequences now
or hereafter enacted and specified in the Uniform Commercial Code, all at
Indenture Trustee's sole election.
(c) Grantor and Indenture Trustee agree that the filing of a financing statement
in the records normally having to do with personal property shall never be
construed as in any way derogating from or impairing the express declaration and
intention of the parties hereto, hereinabove stated, that everything used in
connection with the production of income from the Property and/or adapted for
use therein and/or which is described or reflected in this Deed of Trust is, and
at all times and for all purposes and in all proceedings both legal or
equitable, shall be regarded as part of the real estate encumbered by this Deed
of Trust irrespective of whether (i) any such item is physically attached to the
Improvements, (ii) serial numbers are used for the better identification of
certain equipment items capable of being thus identified in a recital contained
herein or in any list filed with Indenture Trustee, or (iii) any such item is
referred to or reflected in any such financing statement so filed at any time.
Similarly, the mention in any such financing statement of (1) rights in or to
the proceeds of any fire and/or hazard insurance policy, or (2) any award in
eminent domain proceedings for a taking or for loss of value, or (3) Grantor's
interest as lessor in any present or future lease or rights to income growing
out of the use and/or occupancy of the Property, whether pursuant to lease or
otherwise, shall never be construed as in any way altering any of the rights of
Indenture Trustee as determined by this instrument or impugning the priority of
the lien granted hereby or by any other recorded document, but such mention in
the financing statement is declared to be for the protection of Holders in the
event any court or judge shall at any time hold with respect to (1), (2) and (3)
that notice of the priority of the interest of Indenture Trustee and the other
Holders to be effective against a particular class of persons, including but not
limited to the federal government and any subdivisions or entity of the federal
government, must be filed in the Uniform Commercial Code records.
1.09 Assignment of Rents. The assignment contained in paragraph (E) of
this Deed of Trust shall be fully operative without any further action on the
part of either party and specifically Indenture Trustee shall be entitled, at
its option, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of
Default hereunder, to all rents, income and other benefits from the property
described in paragraphs (A), (B), (C) and (D) hereof whether or not Indenture
Trustee or Holders take possession of such property. Grantor hereby further
grants to Indenture Trustee the right after the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default (i) to enter upon and take possession of the
Property for the purpose of collecting the said rents, income and other
benefits, (ii) to dispossess by the usual summary ejectment proceedings any
tenant, (iii) to let the Property or any part thereof, and (iv) to apply said
rents, income and other benefits, after payment of all necessary charges and
expenses, on account of the Obligations secured hereby. Such assignment and
grant shall continue in effect until the Obligations secured hereby are paid,
the execution of this Deed of Trust constituting and evidencing the irrevocable
consent of Grantor to the entry upon and taking possession of the Property by
Indenture Trustee pursuant to such grant, whether or not foreclosure has been
instituted. Neither the exercise of any rights under this paragraph by Indenture
Trustee nor the application of any such rents, income or other benefits to the
Obligations secured hereby, shall cure or waive any default or notice of default
hereunder or invalidate any act done pursuant hereto or to any such notice, but
shall be cumulative of all other rights and remedies. Neither this assignment
nor the receipt of rents, income and other benefits by Indenture Trustee shall
effect a pro tanto payment of the
9
indebtedness evidenced by or arising under the obligations, and such rents shall
be applied as provided in Section 3.10 hereof.
1.10 After-Acquired Property. To the extent permitted by and subject to
applicable law, the lien of this Deed of Trust will automatically attach,
without further act, to all after-acquired property located in or on, or
attached to the Property or any part thereof.
1.11 Leases Affecting Encumbered Property. Grantor represents that the
schedule of leases set forth in Schedule B is true and correct as of the date
hereof; that all such leases are presently in effect and that no default by
Grantor exists in such leases. As any such lease shall expire or terminate or as
any new lease shall be made, Grantor shall so notify Indenture Trustee in order
that at all times Indenture Trustee shall have a current list of all leases
affecting the property described in paragraphs (A), (B) and (C) hereof. The
assignment contained in paragraph (F) of this Deed of Trust shall not be deemed
to impose upon Indenture Trustee any of the obligations or duties of Grantor
provided in any such lease (including, without limitation, any liability under
the covenant of quiet enjoyment contained in any lease in the event that any
tenant shall have been joined as a party defendant in any action to foreclose
this Deed of Trust and shall have been barred and foreclosed thereby of all
right, title and interest and equity of redemption in the Property or any part
thereof), and Grantor shall comply with and observe its obligations in all
material respects as landlord under all leases affecting the Property or any
part thereof. Grantor, if required by Indenture Trustee, shall furnish promptly
to Indenture Trustee original or certified copies of all such leases now
existing or hereafter created. Grantor shall not, without the express prior
written consent of Indenture Trustee, enter into any lease affecting the
Property, or amend, modify, extend, terminate or cancel, accept the surrender
of, subordinate, accelerate the payment of rent as to, or change the terms of
any renewal option of any such lease now existing or hereafter created, or
permit or suffer an assignment or sublease. Grantor shall not accept payment of
rent more than one (1) month in advance without the prior written consent of
Indenture Trustee.
With respect to the assignment contained in paragraph (F) of this Deed of
Trust, Grantor shall, from time to time upon request of Indenture Trustee,
specifically assign to Indenture Trustee as additional security hereunder, by an
instrument in writing in such form as may be approved by Indenture Trustee in
its reasonable discretion, all right, title and interest of Grantor in and to
any and all leases now or hereafter on or affecting the Property, together with
all security therefor and all monies payable thereunder, subject to the
conditional permission hereinabove given to Grantor to collect the rentals under
any such lease. Grantor shall also execute and deliver to Indenture Trustee any
notification, financing statement or other document reasonably required by
Indenture Trustee to perfect the foregoing assignment as to any such lease. The
provisions of this Section 1.11 shall be subject to the provisions of paragraph
(E).
1.12 Indenture Trustee's Performance of Defaults. If Grantor defaults in
the payment of any tax, assessment, encumbrance or other imposition, in its
obligation to furnish insurance hereunder, or in the performance or observance
of any other covenant, condition or term in this Deed of Trust, the Indenture
Documents or the Notes, Indenture Trustee may, to preserve its interest in the
Property, perform or observe the same, and all payments made (whether such
payments are regular or accelerated payments) and costs and expenses incurred or
paid by Indenture Trustee in connection therewith shall become due and payable
immediately. The
10
amounts so incurred or paid by Indenture Trustee together with interest thereon
at the rate per annum specified in Section 2.13 of the Indenture from the date
incurred until paid by Grantor, shall be added to the Obligations and secured by
the lien of this Deed of Trust. Indenture Trustee is hereby empowered to enter
and authorize others to enter upon the Property or any part thereof for the
purposes of performing or observing any such defaulted covenant, condition or
term, without thereby becoming liable to Grantor or any person in possession
holding under Grantor.
1.13 Use of Property. Grantor covenants that the Property will be used for
the purposes set forth in Schedule B.
1.14 Required Notices. Grantor shall notify Indenture Trustee promptly of
the occurrence of any of the following: (i) receipt of any material notice from
any governmental authority relating to the Property; (ii) receipt of any
material notice from any tenant leasing all or any portion of the Property;
(iii) any material change in the occupancy of the Property; (iv) receipt of any
material notice from the holder of any lien or security interest in the
Property; or (v) commencement of any judicial or administrative proceedings by
or against or otherwise affecting the Property.
1.15 Future Indebtedness of Grantor. The lien of this Deed of Trust
secures, as of the date hereof, without further act, all Obligations of Grantor
to Indenture Trustee and the other Holders, including any and all future loans
and advances made by Indenture Trustee and the other Holders pursuant to the
Indenture to or for the benefit of Grantor from time to time hereafter.
ARTICLE TWO
DEFAULTS
2.01 Event of Default. The term "Event of Default", wherever used in this
Deed of Trust, shall mean the occurrence of an "Event of Default" as such term
is defined in Section 6.01 of the Indenture.
ARTICLE THREE
REMEDIES
3.01 Acceleration of Maturity. If an Event of Default shall have occurred
and be continuing, then all of the Obligations secured hereby shall, at
Indenture Trustee's option, immediately become due and payable without notice or
demand, time being of the essence hereof; and no omission on the part of
Indenture Trustee to exercise such option when entitled to do so shall be
construed as a waiver of such right, provided that upon an Event of Default
under clauses (7) or (8) of the definition of "Event of Default" in Section 6.01
of the Indenture, all Obligations shall immediately become due and payable.
3.02 Indenture Trustee's Power of Enforcement. If an Event of Default
shall have occurred and be continuing, Indenture Trustee may, either with or
without entry or taking possession as hereinabove provided or otherwise, and
without regard to whether or not the
11
Obligations shall be due and without prejudice to the right of Indenture Trustee
or Holders thereafter to bring an action of foreclosure or any other action for
any default existing at the time such earlier action was commenced, proceed by
any appropriate action or proceeding: (a) to enforce payment of the Obligations
or the performance of any term hereof or any other right; (b) to foreclose this
Deed of Trust and to sell, as an entirety or in separate lots or parcels, the
Property under the power of sale hereinafter provided or the judgment or decree
of a court or courts of competent jurisdiction; and (c) to pursue any other
remedy available to it. Indenture Trustee shall take action either by such
proceedings or by the exercise of its power with respect to entry or taking
possession, or both, as Indenture Trustee may determine.
3.03 Indenture Trustee's Right to Enter and Take Possession. Operate and
Apply Income.
(a) If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, (i) Grantor
upon demand of Indenture Trustee shall forthwith surrender to Indenture Trustee
the actual possession and if and to the extent permitted by law, Indenture
Trustee itself, or by such officers or agents as it may appoint, may enter upon
and take possession of the Property and may exclude Grantor and its agents and
employees wholly therefrom and may have joint access with Grantor to the books,
papers and accounts of Grantor; and (ii) Grantor will pay monthly in advance to
Indenture Trustee on Indenture Trustee's entry into possession, or to any
receiver appointed to collect the rents, income and other benefits of the
Property, the fair and reasonable rental value for the use and occupation of
such part of the Property as may be in possession of Grantor, and upon default
in any such payment will vacate and surrender possession of such part of the
Property to Indenture Trustee or to such receiver and, in default thereof,
Grantor may be evicted by summary proceedings or otherwise.
(b) If Grantor shall for any reason fail to surrender or deliver the Property or
any part thereof after Indenture Trustee's demand, Indenture Trustee may obtain
a judgment or decree, on behalf of all of the Holders, conferring on Indenture
Trustee the right to immediate possession or requiring Grantor to deliver
immediate possession of all or part of the Property to Indenture Trustee, to the
entry of which judgment or decree Grantor hereby specifically consents. Grantor
shall pay to Indenture Trustee, upon demand, all reasonable costs and expenses
of obtaining such judgment or decree and compensation to Indenture Trustee and
the other Holders, its attorneys and agents, and all such costs, expenses and
compensation shall, until paid, be secured by the lien of this Deed of Trust.
(c) Upon every such entering upon or taking of possession of the Property under
this Section 3.03, Indenture Trustee may hold, store, use, operate, manage and
control the Property and conduct the business thereof, and, from time to time:
(i) Make all necessary and proper maintenance, repairs, renewals, replacements,
additions, betterments and improvements thereto and thereon and purchase or
otherwise acquire additional fixtures, personalty and other property;
(ii) Insure or keep the Property insured;
12
(iii) Manage and operate the Property and exercise all the rights and powers of
Grantor in its name or otherwise with respect to the same;
(iv) Enter into agreements with others to exercise the powers herein granted
Indenture Trustee, all as Indenture Trustee from time to time may determine; and
Indenture Trustee may collect and receive all the rents, income and other
benefits thereof, including those past due as well as those accruing thereafter;
and shall apply the monies so received by Indenture Trustee in such priority as
Indenture Trustee may determine to (1) the payment of the Obligations; (2) the
deposits for taxes and assessments and insurance premiums due; (3) the cost of
insurance, taxes, assessments and proper charges upon the Property or any part
thereof; (4) the expenses of operating, maintaining, repairing and improving the
Property, including with limitation renting commissions and rental collection
commissions paid to Indenture Trustee or agent on behalf of Indenture Trustee
and the other Holders or of the receiver; and (5) the reasonable compensation,
expenses and disbursements of the agents, attorneys and other representatives of
Indenture Trustee. All costs, expenses and liabilities of every character
incurred by Indenture Trustee in managing, operating and maintaining the
Property shall constitute additional Obligations secured hereby. While in
possession of the Property, Indenture Trustee or the receiver shall be liable to
account only for the rents, issues and profits actually received.
Indenture Trustee shall surrender possession of the Property to Grantor only
when all Obligations secured hereby and all amounts under any of the terms of
this Deed of Trust shall have been paid and all defaults cured or waived. The
same right of taking possession, however, shall exist if any subsequent Event of
Default shall occur and be continuing.
3.04 Foreclosure.
(a) If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Trustee,
shall, upon being so requested to do by Indenture Trustee, sell any or all of
the Property at public auction for cash, on the premises or at the courthouse
door in the county in which the Property is located, having first given notice
of the time and place of such sale in accordance with the statute in such case
provided, and convey the Property so sold to the purchaser in fee. Out of the
proceeds of said sale, Trustee shall pay: all costs, charges, expenses,
commissions, unpaid taxes, and fees of advertising, selling and conveying the
Property and such other assessments, insurance or other fees or costs as may
have been incurred; a reasonable fee not exceeding five percent (5%) of the
gross proceeds of sale to Trustee, or his successor, in payment of his services
hereunder and of collecting the monies secured by this Deed of Trust; a sum
sufficient to pay the entire balance owing on the Obligations secured hereby;
and the surplus, if any, to Grantor or the person entitled thereto.
(b) Should Indenture Trustee have elected to accelerate the indebtedness secured
hereby, Indenture Trustee may initiate foreclosure of the Property by requesting
the Trustee to effectuate a non-judicial foreclosure sale. The Trustee of this
Deed of Trust shall then sell, or offer for sale, the Property at public sale to
the highest bidder for cash during a three hour period between the hours of ten
o'clock a.m. and four o'clock p.m. whose earliest point in time is specified, on
the first Tuesday of any month, at the area officially designated for holding
such sales at the courthouse of any county in the State of Texas in which any
part of the Property is situated, after having given notice of the date, the
time period, place and terms of said sale in accordance with
13
the laws of the State of Texas then in force and governing said sales of real
property and improvements under powers conferred by deeds of trust. The Property
shall be sold by posting, or causing to be posted, at least twenty-one (21)
consecutive days prior to the date of said sale, written or printed notice
thereof at the courthouse door in each of the counties in which the Property is
situated, designating the county where the Property will be sold and designating
the date, the time period, the place and the terms of sale. A copy of such
notice shall also be filed in the office of the County Clerk in each county of
the State of Texas in which any part of the Property is situated at least
twenty-one (21) consecutive days before the date of said sale of the Property.
Indenture Trustee or other holders of the indebtedness secured hereby shall have
the right to become the purchaser at any sale held by any Trustee or substitute
or successor Trustee, or by any receiver or public officer. Any Holder
purchasing at any such sale shall have the right to credit the secured
indebtedness owing to such Holder upon the amount of its bid entered at such
sale to the extent necessary to satisfy such bid. Said Trustee may appoint an
attorney-in-fact to act in its stead as Trustee to conduct sale as hereinbefore
provided. Grantor authorizes and empowers the Trustee to sell the Property, in
lots or parcels or as a whole, by one sale or by several sales, held at one time
or at different times as the Trustee may elect (all rights to a marshaling of
the Property, or to a sale in inverse order of alienation, being hereby
expressly waived by Grantor) and to execute and deliver to the purchaser or
purchasers thereof good and sufficient deeds of conveyance thereto of the estate
of title then existing on the Property and bills of sale with covenants of
general warranty. Grantor binds itself to warrant and forever defend the title
of such purchaser or purchasers when so made by the Trustee, and agrees to
accept proceeds of said sale, if any, which are payable to Grantor as provided
herein. In addition to the posting and filing of notices hereinabove provided,
and for so long as required by law, no foreclosure under the power of sale
herein contained shall be held unless Indenture Trustee, at least twenty-one
(21) days preceding the date of sale and in the manner prescribed by law, shall
have served written notice of the proposed sale which designates the County
where the Property will be sold and designates the date, time period, the place
and the terms of sale by certified mail on Grantor. Service of such a notice by
certified mail shall be completed upon deposit of such notice, postage prepaid
and properly addressed to each such person or entity at the address for Grantor
indicated on the first page of this Deed of Trust, in a Post Office of the
United States Postal Service or in an official depository under the care and
custody of the United States Postal Service. The affidavit of a person
knowledgeable of the facts to the effect that such service was completed shall
be prima facie evidence of the fact of service.
3.05 Leases. Trustee, at Indenture Trustee's option, is authorized to
foreclose this Deed of Trust subject to the rights of any tenants of the
Property, and the failure to make any such tenants parties defendant to any such
foreclosure proceedings and to foreclose their rights will not be, nor be
asserted by Grantor to be, a defense to any proceedings instituted by Indenture
Trustee to collect the sums secured hereby or to collect any deficiency
remaining unpaid after the foreclosure sale of the Property.
3.06 Waiver of Appraisement. Valuation. Stay. Extension and Redemption
Laws. Grantor agrees to the full extent permitted by law that in case of a
default in its part hereunder, neither Grantor nor anyone claiming through or
under Grantor shall or will set up, claim or seek to take advantage of any
appraisement, valuation, extension 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 Property or the final and absolute putting
into possession thereof,
14
immediately after such sale, of the purchasers thereat, and Grantor, for itself
and all who may at any time claim through or under Grantor, hereby waives, to
the full extent that Grantor may lawfully so do, the benefit of all such laws,
and any and all right to have the assets comprising the Property marshaled upon
any foreclosure of the lien hereof and agrees that Trustee or any court having
jurisdiction to foreclose such lien may sell the Property in part or as an
entirety.
3.07 Receiver. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, Indenture Trustee, to the extent permitted by law and without regard
to the value or adequacy of the security for the Obligations secured hereby,
shall be entitled as a matter of right if it so elects to the appointment of a
receiver to enter upon and take possession of the Property and to collect all
rents, income and other benefits thereof and apply the same as the court may
direct, and any such receiver shall be entitled to hold, store, use, operate,
manage and control the Property and conduct the business thereof as would
Indenture Trustee pursuant to Section 3.03(c) above. The expenses, including
receiver's fees, reasonable attorney's fees, costs and agent's compensation,
incurred pursuant to the powers herein contained shall be secured by this Deed
of Trust. The right to enter and take possession of and to manage and operate
the Property and to collect all rents, income and other benefits thereof,
whether by a receiver or otherwise, shall be cumulative to any other right or
remedy hereunder or afforded by law and may be exercised concurrently therewith
or independently thereof Indenture Trustee shall be liable to account only for
such rents, income and other benefits actually received by Indenture Trustee,
whether received pursuant to this paragraph or Section 3.03. Notwithstanding the
appointment of any receiver or other custodian, Indenture Trustee shall be
entitled as pledgee to the possession and control of any cash, deposit, or
instruments at the time held by, or payable or deliverable under the terms of
this Deed of Trust to, Indenture Trustee.
3.08 Suits to Protect the Property. Indenture Trustee shall have the power
and authority to institute and maintain any suits and proceedings as Indenture
Trustee may deem advisable (a) to prevent any impairment of the Property by any
acts which may be unlawful or any violation of this Deed of Trust, (b) to
preserve or protect its interest in the Property, and (c) to restrain the
enforcement of or compliance with any legislation or other government enactment,
rule or order that may be unconstitutional or otherwise invalid, if the
enforcement or compliance with such enactment, rule or order might impair the
security hereunder or be prejudicial to Indenture Trustee's or Holders'
interest.
3.09 Proofs of Claim. In the case of any receivership, insolvency,
bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other
judicial proceedings affecting Grantor or any guarantor, co-maker or endorser of
any Grantor's obligations, its creditors or its property, Indenture Trustee, to
the extent permitted by law, shall be entitled to file such proofs of claim and
other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have its claims
allowed in such proceedings for the entire amount due and payable by Grantor
under this Deed of Trust, the Indenture, the Indenture Documents and any other
instrument securing the Obligations, at the date of the institution of such
proceedings, and for any additional amounts which may become due and payable by
Grantor after such date.
3.10 Application of Monies by Indenture Trustee.
15
(a) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default,
Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to xxx for and to recover judgment against
Grantor for the whole amount of the Obligations due and unpaid together with
costs and expenses, including without limitation, the reasonable compensation,
expenses and disbursements of Indenture Trustee's and Holders' agents, attorneys
and other representatives, either before, after or during the pendency of any
proceedings for the enforcement of this Deed of Trust, and the right of
Indenture Trustee to recover such judgment shall not be affected by any taking
possession or foreclosure sale hereunder, or by the exercise of any other right,
power or remedy for the enforcement of the terms of this Deed of Trust, or the
foreclosure of the lien hereof.
(b) In case of a foreclosure sale of all or any part of the Property and the
application of the proceeds of sale to the payment of the Obligations secured
hereby, Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to enforce payment from Grantor of
all Obligations then remaining due and unpaid and to recover judgment against
Grantor for any portion thereof remaining unpaid, with interest.
(c) Grantor hereby agrees, to the extent permitted by law, that no recovery of
any such judgment by Indenture Trustee and no attachment or levy of any
execution upon any of the Property or any other property shall in any way affect
the lien of this Deed of Trust upon the Property or any part thereof or any
lien, rights, powers or remedies of Holders hereunder, but such lien, rights,
powers and remedies shall continue unimpaired as before.
(d) Any monies collected or received by Indenture Trustee under this Section
3.10 shall be applied to the payment of reasonable compensation, expenses and
disbursements of the agents, attorneys, and other representatives of Indenture
Trustee, and the balance remaining shall be applied to the payment of the
Obligations secured hereby.
(e) The provisions of this paragraph shall not be deemed to limit or otherwise
modify the provisions of any guaranty of the Obligations of Guarantor to
Indenture Trustee.
3.11 Delay or Omission; No Waiver. No delay or omission of Indenture
Trustee to exercise any right, power or remedy accruing upon any Event of
Default shall exhaust or impair any such right, power or remedy or shall be
construed to waive any such Event of Default or to constitute acquiescence
therein. Every right, power and remedy given to Indenture Trustee may be
exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient by Indenture
Trustee.
3.12 No Waiver of One Default to Affect Another. No waiver of any Event of
Default hereunder shall extend to or affect any subsequent or any other Event of
Default then existing, or impair any rights, powers or remedies consequent
thereon. If Indenture Trustee (a) grants forbearance or an extension of time for
the payment of any Obligations secured hereby; (b) takes other or additional
security for the payment thereof; (c) waives or does not exercise any right
granted in the Indenture; (d) releases any part of the Property from the lien of
this Deed of Trust; (e) consents to the filing of any map, plat or replat of the
Land; (f) consents to the granting of any easement on the Land; or (g) makes or
consents to any agreement changing the terms of this Deed of Trust or
subordinating the lien or any charge hereof, no such act or omission shall
release, discharge, modify, change or affect the Obligations of Grantor. No such
act or omission shall preclude Indenture Trustee or Holders from exercising any
right, power or privilege herein
16
granted or intended to be granted in case of any Event of Default then existing
or of any subsequent Event of Default nor shall the lien of this Deed of Trust
be affected thereby.
3.13 Discontinuance of Proceedings; Position of Parties Restored. If
Trustee or Indenture Trustee or Holders shall have proceeded to enforce any
right or remedy under this Deed of Trust by foreclosure, entry or otherwise and
such proceedings shall have been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or
such proceedings shall have resulted in a final determination adverse to
Indenture Trustee or Holders, then and in every such case Grantor and Indenture
Trustee shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder, and
all rights, powers and remedies of Indenture Trustee shall continue as if no
such proceedings had occurred or had been taken.
3.14 Remedies Cumulative. No right, power or remedy conferred upon or
reserved to Indenture Trustee by this Deed of Trust or the Notes is 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 under the Notes, or now or hereafter existing at
law, in equity or by statute.
