(a) To secure to Lender, the repayment of the Indebtedness, and all renewals, extensions and modifications thereof, and the performance of the covenants and agreements of Grantor contained in the Loan Documents, Grantor hereby pledges, assigns, and grants to Lender a continuing security interest in the UCC Collateral. This Security Instrument constitutes a security agreement and a financing statement under the UCC.

Grantor hereby authorizes Lender to file financing statements, continuation statements and financing statement amendments in such form as Lender may require to perfect or continue the perfection of this security interest without the signature of Grantor. If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Lender shall have the remedies of a secured party under the UCC or otherwise provided at law or in equity, in addition to all remedies provided by this Security Instrument and in any Loan Document. Lender may exercise any or all of its remedies against the UCC Collateral separately or together, and in any order, without in any way affecting the availability or validity of Lender’s other remedies. For purposes of the UCC, the debtor is Grantor and the secured party is Xxxxxx. The name and address of the debtor and secured party are set forth after Grantor’s signature below which are the addresses from which information on the security interest may be obtained.

(c) All property of every kind acquired by Grantor after the date of this Security Instrument which by the terms of this Security Instrument shall be subject to the lien and the security interest created hereby, shall immediately upon the acquisition thereof by Grantor and without further conveyance or assignment become subject to the lien and security interest created by this Security Instrument. Nevertheless, Grantor shall execute, acknowledge, deliver and record or file, as appropriate, all and every such further deeds of trust, mortgages, deeds to secure debt, security agreements, financing statements, assignments and assurances as Lender shall require for accomplishing the purposes of this Security Instrument and to comply with the rerecording requirements of the UCC.

3.	Assignment of Leases and Rents; Appointment of Receiver; Lender in Possession.

(a) To secure to Lender, the repayment of the Indebtedness, and all renewals, extensions and modifications thereof, and the performance of the covenants and agreements of Grantor contained in the Loan Documents, Grantor absolutely and unconditionally assigns and transfers to Lender all Leases and Rents. It is the intention of Grantor to establish present, absolute and irrevocable transfers and assignments to Lender of all Leases and Rents and to authorize and empower Lender to collect and receive all Rents without the necessity of further action on the part of Grantor. Grantor and Xxxxxx intend the assignments of Leases and Rents to be effective immediately and to constitute absolute present assignments, and not assignments for additional security only. Only for purposes of giving effect to these absolute assignments of Leases and Rents, and for no other purpose, the Leases and Rents shall not be deemed to be a part of the Mortgaged Property. However, if these present, absolute and unconditional assignments of Leases and Rents are not enforceable by their terms under the laws of the Property Jurisdiction, then each of the Leases and Rents shall be included as part of the Mortgaged Property, and it is the intention of Grantor, in such circumstance, that this Security Instrument create and perfect a lien on each of the Leases and Rents in favor of Lender, which liens shall be effective as of the date of this Security Instrument.

(b) Until an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, but subject to the limitations set forth in the Loan Documents, Grantor shall have a revocable license to exercise all rights, power and authority granted to Grantor under the Leases (including the right, power and authority to modify the terms of any Lease, extend or terminate any Lease, or enter into new Leases, subject to the limitations set forth in the Loan Documents), and to collect and receive all Rents, to hold all Rents in trust for the benefit of Lender, and to apply all Rents to pay the Indebtedness and the other amounts then due and payable under the other Loan Documents, including Imposition Deposits, and to pay the current costs and expenses of managing, operating and maintaining the Mortgaged Property, including utilities and Impositions (to the extent not included in Imposition Deposits), tenant improvements and other capital expenditures. So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing (and no event which, with the giving of notice or the passage of time, or both, would constitute an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing), the Rents remaining after application pursuant to the preceding sentence may be retained and distributed by Grantor free and clear of, and released from, Xxxxxx’s rights with respect to Rents under this Security Instrument.

(c) If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, without the necessity of Lender entering upon and taking and maintaining control of the Mortgaged Property directly, by a receiver, or by any other manner or proceeding permitted by the laws of the Property Jurisdiction, the revocable license granted to Grantor pursuant to Section 3(b) shall automatically terminate, and Lender shall immediately have all rights, powers and authority granted to Grantor under any Lease (including the right, power and authority to modify the terms of any such Lease, or extend or terminate any such Lease) and, without notice, Lender shall be entitled to all Rents as they become due and payable, including Rents then due and unpaid. During the continuance of an Event of Default, Grantor authorizes Xxxxxx to collect, sue for and compromise Rents and directs each tenant of the Mortgaged Property to pay all Rents to, or as directed by, Xxxxxx, and Grantor shall, upon Grantor’s receipt of any Rents from any sources, pay the total amount of such receipts to Lender. Although the foregoing rights of Lender are self-effecting, at any time during the continuance of an Event of Default, Lender may make demand for all Rents, and Lender may give, and Grantor hereby irrevocably authorizes Lender to give, notice to all tenants of the Mortgaged Property instructing them to pay all Rents to Lender. No tenant shall be obligated to inquire further as to the occurrence or continuance of an Event of Default, and no tenant shall be obligated to pay to Grantor any amounts that are actually paid to Lender in response to such a notice. Any such notice by Xxxxxx shall be delivered to each tenant personally, by mail or by delivering such demand to each rental unit.

(d) If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Lender may, regardless of the adequacy of Lender’s security or the solvency of Grantor, and even in the absence of waste, enter upon, take and maintain full control of the Mortgaged Property, and may exclude Grantor and its agents and employees therefrom, in order to perform all acts that Lender, in its discretion, determines to be necessary or desirable for the operation and maintenance of the Mortgaged Property, including the execution, cancellation or modification of Leases, the collection of all Rents (including through use of a lockbox, at Lender’s election), the making of repairs to the Mortgaged Property and the execution or termination of contracts providing for the management, operation or maintenance of the Mortgaged Property, for the purposes of enforcing this assignment of Rents, protecting the Mortgaged Property or the security of this Security Instrument and the Loan, or for such other purposes as Lender in its discretion may deem necessary or desirable.

(e) Notwithstanding any other right provided Lender under this Security Instrument or any other Loan Document, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and regardless of the adequacy of Xxxxxx’s security or Grantor’s solvency, and without the necessity of giving prior notice (oral or written) to Grantor, Lender may apply to any court having jurisdiction for the appointment of a receiver for the Mortgaged Property to take any or all of the actions set forth in Section 3. If Lender elects to seek the appointment of a receiver for the Mortgaged Property at any time after an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Grantor, by its execution of this Security Instrument, expressly consents to the appointment of such receiver, including the appointment of a receiver ex parte, if permitted by applicable law. Grantor consents to shortened time consideration of a motion to appoint a receiver. Lender or the receiver, as applicable, shall be entitled to receive a reasonable fee for managing or operating the Mortgaged Property and such fee shall become an additional part of the Indebtedness. Immediately upon appointment of a receiver or Xxxxxx’s entry upon and taking possession and control of the Mortgaged Property, possession of the Mortgaged Property and all documents, records (including records on electronic or magnetic media), accounts, surveys, plans, and specifications relating to the Mortgaged Property, and all security deposits and prepaid Rents, shall be surrendered to Lender or the receiver, as applicable. If Lender or receiver takes possession and control of the Mortgaged Property, Lender or receiver may exclude Grantor and its representatives from the Mortgaged Property.

(f) The acceptance by Xxxxxx of the assignments of the Leases and Rents pursuant to this Section 3 shall not at any time or in any event obligate Lender to take any action under any Loan Document or to expend any money or to incur any expense. Lender shall not be liable in any way for any injury or damage to person or property sustained by any Person in, on or about the Mortgaged Property. Prior to Lender’s actual entry upon and taking possession and control of the Land and Improvements, Lender shall not be:

(1) obligated to perform any of the terms, covenants and conditions contained in any Lease (or otherwise have any obligation with respect to any Lease);

(2) obligated to appear in or defend any action or proceeding relating to any Lease or the Mortgaged Property; or

(3) responsible for the operation, control, care, management or repair of the Mortgaged Property or any portion of the Mortgaged Property.

The execution of this Security Instrument shall constitute conclusive evidence that all responsibility for the operation, control, care, management and repair of the Mortgaged Property is and shall be that of Grantor, prior to such actual entry and taking possession and control by Xxxxxx of the Land and Improvements.

(g) Lender shall be liable to account only to Grantor and only for Rents actually received by Xxxxxx. Lender shall not be liable to Grantor, anyone claiming under or through Grantor or anyone having an interest in the Mortgaged Property by reason of any act or omission of Lender under this Section 3, and Grantor hereby releases and discharges Lender from any such liability to the fullest extent permitted by law, provided that Lender shall not be released from liability that occurs as a result of Lender’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction pursuant to a final, non-appealable court order. If the Rents are not sufficient to meet the costs of taking control of and managing the Mortgaged Property and collecting the Rents, any funds expended by Lender for such purposes shall be added to, and become a part of, the principal balance of the Indebtedness, be immediately due and payable, and bear interest at the Default Rate from the date of disbursement until fully paid. Any entering upon and taking control of the Mortgaged Property by Lender or the receiver, and any application of Rents as provided in this Security Instrument, shall not cure or waive any Event of Default or invalidate any other right or remedy of Lender under applicable law or provided for in this Security Instrument or any Loan Document.

4.	Protection of Lender’s Security.

If Grantor fails to perform any of its obligations under this Security Instrument or any other Loan Document, or any action or proceeding is commenced that purports to affect the Mortgaged Property, Lender’s security, rights or interests under this Security Instrument or any Loan Document (including eminent domain, insolvency, code enforcement, civil or criminal forfeiture, enforcement of Environmental Laws, fraudulent conveyance or reorganizations or proceedings involving a debtor or decedent), Lender may, at its option, make such appearances, disburse or pay such sums and take such actions, whether before or after an Event of Default or whether directly or to any receiver for the Mortgaged Property, as Lender reasonably deems necessary to perform such obligations of Grantor and to protect the Mortgaged Property or Lender’s security, rights or interests in the Mortgaged Property or the Loan, including:

(a) paying fees and out-of-pocket expenses of attorneys, accountants, inspectors and consultants;

(b) entering upon the Mortgaged Property to make repairs or secure the Mortgaged Property;

(d) paying any amounts required under any of the Loan Documents that Grantor has failed to pay.

Any amounts so disbursed or paid by Xxxxxx shall be deemed to be obligatory advances and added to, and become part of, the principal balance of the Indebtedness, be immediately due and payable and bear interest at the Default Rate from the date of disbursement until fully paid. The provisions of this Section 4 shall not be deemed to obligate or require Lender to incur any expense or take any action.

5.	Cross-Collateralization.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, this Security Instrument also secures the following indebtedness and obligations: that certain Warrenville Loan and all loan documents evidencing the same. Borrower hereby irrevocably mortgages, grants, conveys and assigns to Trustee, in trust, with power of sale, the Mortgaged Property, to secure to Lender payment of the Warrenville Loan and the performance of the covenants and agreements contained herein.

6.	Default; Acceleration; Remedies.

(a) If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Lender, at its option, may declare the Indebtedness to be immediately due and payable without further demand, and may either with or without entry or taking possession as herein provided or otherwise, proceed by suit or suits at law or in equity or any other appropriate proceeding or remedy (1) to enforce payment of the Loan; (2) to foreclose this Security Instrument judicially or non-judicially by the power of sale granted herein; (3) to enforce or exercise any right under any Loan Document; and (4) to pursue any one (1)or more other remedies provided in this Security Instrument or in any other Loan Document or otherwise afforded by applicable law. Each right and remedy provided in this Security Instrument or any other Loan Document is distinct from all other rights or remedies under this Security Instrument or any other Loan Document or otherwise afforded by applicable law, and each shall be cumulative and may be exercised concurrently, independently, or successively, in any order. Grantor has the right to bring an action to assert the nonexistence of an Event of Default or any other defense of Grantor to acceleration and sale.

(b) Grantor acknowledges that the power of sale granted in this Security Instrument may be exercised or directed by Xxxxxx without prior judicial hearing. In the event Lender invokes the power of sale and if it is determined in a hearing held in accordance with applicable law that Trustee can proceed to sale:

(1) Lender shall send to Grantor and any other Persons required to receive such notice, written notice of Xxxxxx’s election to cause the Mortgaged Property to be sold. Grantor hereby authorizes and empowers Trustee to take possession of the Mortgaged Property, or any part thereof, and hereby grants to Trustee a power of sale and authorizes and empowers Trustee to sell (or, in the case of the default of any purchaser, to resell) the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof, in compliance with applicable law, including compliance with any and all notice and timing requirements for such sale;

(2) Trustee shall have the authority to determine the terms of the sale, subject to applicable law. In connection with any such sale, the whole of the Mortgaged Property may be sold in one (1) parcel as an entirety or in separate lots or parcels at the same or different times. Lender shall have the right to become the purchaser at any such sale. Trustee shall be entitled to receive fees and expenses from such sale not to exceed the amount permitted by applicable law;

(3) within a reasonable time after the sale, Trustee shall deliver to the purchaser of the Mortgaged Property a deed or such other appropriate conveyance document conveying the Mortgaged Property so sold without any express or implied covenant or warranty. The recitals in such deed or document shall be prima facie evidence of the truth of the statements made in those recitals; and

(4) the outstanding principal amount of the Loan and the other Indebtedness, if not previously due, shall be and become immediately due and payable without demand or notice of any kind. If the Mortgaged Property is sold for an amount less than the amount outstanding under the Indebtedness, to the extent allowed by applicable law, the deficiency shall be determined by the purchase price at the sale or sales. To the extent allowed by applicable law, Grantor waives all rights, claims, and defenses with respect to Xxxxxx’s ability to obtain a deficiency judgment.

(c) Grantor acknowledges and agrees that the proceeds of any sale shall be applied as determined by Lender unless otherwise required by applicable law.

All expenditures and expenses of the nature mentioned in this Section 5, and such other expenses and fees as may be incurred in the protection of the Mortgaged Property and rents and income therefrom and the maintenance of the lien of this Security Instrument, including the fees of any attorney employed by Lender in any litigation or proceedings affecting this Security Instrument, the Note, the other Loan Documents, or the Mortgaged Property, including bankruptcy proceedings, any Foreclosure Event, or in preparation of the commencement or defense of any proceedings or threatened suit or proceeding, or otherwise in dealing specifically therewith, shall be so much additional Indebtedness and shall be immediately due and payable by Grantor, with interest thereon at the Default Rate until paid.

(e) Any action taken by Trustee or Lender pursuant to the provisions of this Section 5 shall comply with the laws of the Property Jurisdiction.

Such applicable laws shall take precedence over the provisions of this Section 5, but shall not invalidate or render unenforceable any other provision of any Loan Document that can be construed in a manner consistent with any applicable law. If any provision of this Security Instrument shall grant to Lender (including Lender acting as a mortgagee-in-possession), Trustee or a receiver appointed pursuant to the provisions of this Security Instrument any powers, rights or remedies prior to, upon, during the continuance of or following an Event of Default that are more limited than the powers, rights, or remedies that would otherwise be vested in such party under any applicable law in the absence of said provision, such party shall be vested with the powers, rights, and remedies granted in such applicable law to the full extent permitted by law.

7.	Waiver of Statute of Limitations and Marshaling.

To the extent allowed by the law of the Property Jurisdiction, Grantor hereby waives the right to assert any statute of limitations as a bar to the enforcement of the lien of this Security Instrument or to any action brought to enforce any Loan Document. Notwithstanding the existence of any other security interests in the Mortgaged Property held by Lender or by any other party, Lender shall have the right to determine the order in which any or all of the Mortgaged Property shall be subjected to the remedies provided in this Security Instrument and/or any other Loan Document or by applicable law. Lender shall have the right to determine the order in which any or all portions of the Indebtedness are satisfied from the proceeds realized upon the exercise of such remedies. Grantor, for itself and all who may claim by, through, or under it, and any party who now or in the future acquires a security interest in the Mortgaged Property and who has actual or constructive notice of this Security Instrument waives any and all right to require the marshaling of assets or to require that any of the Mortgaged Property be sold in the inverse order of alienation or that any of the Mortgaged Property be sold in parcels (at the same time or different times) in connection with the exercise of any of the remedies provided in this Security Instrument or any other Loan Document, or afforded by applicable law.

8.	Waiver of Redemption; Rights of Tenants.

(a) To the full extent not prohibited by the law of the Property Jurisdiction, Grantor hereby covenants and agrees that it will not at any time apply for, insist upon, plead, avail itself, or in any manner claim or take any advantage of, any appraisement, stay, exemption or extension law or any so-called “Moratorium Law” now or at any time hereafter enacted or in force in order to prevent or hinder the enforcement or foreclosure of this Security Instrument. Without limiting the foregoing:

(1) Grantor for itself and all Persons who may claim by, through, or under Grantor, hereby expressly waives any so-called “Moratorium Law” and any and all rights of reinstatement and redemption, if any, under any order or decree of foreclosure of this Security Instrument, it being the intent hereof that any and all such “Moratorium Laws,” and all rights of reinstatement and redemption of Grantor and of all other Persons claiming by, through, or under Grantor are and shall be deemed to be hereby waived to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law;

(2) Grantor shall not invoke or utilize any such law or laws or otherwise hinder, delay or impede the execution of any right, power remedy herein or otherwise granted or delegated to Lender but will suffer and permit the execution of every such right, power and remedy as though no such law or laws had been made or enacted; and

(3) if Grantor is a trust, Grantor represents that the provisions of this Section 8 (including the waiver of reinstatement and redemption rights) were made at the express direction of Grantor’s beneficiaries and the persons having the power of direction over Grantor, and are made on behalf of the trust estate of Grantor and all beneficiaries of Grantor, as well as all other persons mentioned above.

(b) Lender shall have the right to foreclose subject to the rights of any tenant or tenants of the Mortgaged Property having an interest in the Mortgaged Property prior to that of Lender. The failure to join any such tenant or tenants of the Mortgaged Property as party defendant or defendants in any such civil action or the failure of any decree of foreclosure and sale to foreclose their rights shall not be asserted by Grantor as a defense in any civil action instituted to collect the Indebtedness, or any part thereof or any deficiency remaining unpaid after foreclosure and sale of the Mortgaged Property, any statute or rule of law at any time existing to the contrary notwithstanding.

14.	Governing Law; Consent to Jurisdiction and Venue.

With respect to procedural matters related to the perfection of Xxxxxx’s lien, to the enforcement of Xxxxxx’s remedies hereunder, or to non-waivable provisions of the laws of the Property Jurisdiction, this Security Instrument shall be governed by the laws of the Property Jurisdiction without giving effect to any choice of law provisions thereof that would result in the application of the laws of another jurisdiction.
