(collectively, the "Secured Obligations"):
(a) The debt evidenced by (i) those certain Revolving Credit
Notes made by Obligor in the aggregate principal amount of One Hundred
Twenty-Five Million and No/100 Dollars ($125,000,000), and that certain

or before December 27, 2004 and (ii) each other note as may be issued under the
Credit Agreement, each as originally executed, or if varied, extended,
supplemented, consolidated, amended, replaced, renewed, modified or restated
from time to time as so varied, extended, supplemented, consolidated, amended,
replaced, renewed, modified or restated (collectively, the "Note").
(b) The payment, performance and discharge of each and every
obligation, covenant and agreement of Obligor contained herein, in the Credit
Agreement, and in the other Loan Documents (as defined in the Credit Agreement).
(c) Any and all additional advances made by any Lender to

provided (whether or not Obligor remains the owner of the Property at the time
of such advances).
(d) Any and all other indebtedness now or hereafter owing by
Obligor to any Lender pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement, whether now
existing or hereafter arising or incurred, however evidenced or incurred,
whether express or implied, direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, due or
to become due, including, without limitation, all principal, interest, fees,
expenses, yield maintenance amounts and indemnification amounts, and all
renewals, modifications, consolidations, replacements and extensions thereof.
(e) All reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred
by the Agent in connection with the enforcement and collection of the Secured
Obligations, including, without limitation, all attorneys' fees and
disbursements, and all other such costs and expenses described in and incurred
pursuant to the Note, the Credit Agreement, this Mortgage, and the other Loan
Documents (as defined in the Credit Agreement) (collectively, the "Enforcement
Costs").
Notwithstanding anything contained in this Mortgage to the
contrary, this Mortgage secures only such future or additional advances (in
addition to the principal amount of the Note) as may be made by Lenders or the
holder hereof to Obligor or its permitted successors and assigns in title to the
extent that such advances are made within 20 years from the date of this
Mortgage or within such lesser period of time as may be provided by law as a
prerequisite for the sufficiency of actual notice or record notice of such
optional, future or additional advances as against the rights of creditors or
subsequent purchasers for valuable consideration to the same extent as if such
future or additional advances are made on the date of the execution of this
Mortgage. Moreover, the total amount of indebtedness secured by this Mortgage
may be increased or decreased from time to time, but the total unpaid balance so
secured at any one time shall not exceed the maximum principal amount of
$125,000,000 plus interest thereon and any disbursements made under this
Mortgage for the payment of impositions, insurance or otherwise, with interest
on such disbursements.
Should the Secured Obligations secured by this Mortgage be paid according to the
tenor and effect thereof when the same shall become due and payable, and should
Obligor perform all covenants herein contained in a timely manner, then this
Mortgage shall be cancelled and surrendered.
Obligor hereby further covenants and agrees with Agent as follows:
ARTICLE 1
1.01 Payment of Secured Obligations. Obligor will pay the Secured
Obligations according to the tenor thereof and all other sums now or hereafter
secured hereby promptly as the same shall become due.
1.02 Representations and Warranties. Obligor represents and warrants to
Agent, for the ratable benefit of Lenders, that, as of the date hereof:
(a) Obligor has good and marketable title in fee to such of
the Property as is real property, subject to no liens, encumbrances or
restrictions other than Permitted Encumbrances. There has been no labor or
materials furnished to the Property on behalf of Obligor that has not been paid
for in full or for which payment will not be made in the ordinary course.
(b) Obligor has no actual notice, information or knowledge of
any change contemplated in (i) any applicable law, ordinance, regulation, or
restriction; (ii) any judicial, administrative, governmental or
quasi-governmental action; (iii)of any action by adjacent land owners; or (iv)
of any natural or artificial conditions existing upon the Property, which would
materially limit, restrict, or prevent the contemplated or intended use and
purpose of the Property.
(c) There is no pending condemnation or similar proceeding
affecting the Property, or any portion thereof, nor, to the best knowledge of
Obligor, is any such action being presently contemplated.
(d) No part of the Property is being used for agricultural
purposes or being used for a personal residence by Obligor or any shareholder of
Obligor.
(e) The Property is undamaged by fire, windstorm, or other
casualty.
(f) The Property complies in all material respects with all
zoning and subdivision ordinances, energy and environmental codes, building and
use restrictions and codes, and any requirements with respect to licenses,
permits and agreements necessary for the lawful use and operation of the
Property, or, to the extent of any non-compliance with zoning and building
codes, the Property is a valid non-conforming use pursuant to the applicable
zoning and building codes.
(g) The heating, electrical, sanitary sewer plumbing, storm
sewer plumbing, potable water plumbing and other building equipment, fixtures
and fittings in the existing improvements on the Property are in good condition
and working order, are adequate in quantity and quality for normal and usual
use, and are fit for the purposes intended and the use contemplated.
(h) The Property is covered by a tax parcel(s) which pertain
to the Property only and not to any property which is not subject to this
Mortgage.
(i) The Property is improved with office buildings and
related parking and has frontage on, and direct access for ingress and egress to
a public street.
1.03 Taxes, Liens and Other Charges.
(a) In the event of the passage of any state, federal,
municipal or other governmental law, order, rule or regulation, subsequent to
the date hereof, in any manner changing or modifying the laws now in force
governing the taxation of debts secured by mortgages or the manner of collecting
taxes so as to materially adversely affect Lenders, Obligor will promptly pay
any such tax. If Obligor fails to make such prompt payment or if, in the opinion
of Agent, any such state, federal, municipal, or other governmental law, order,
rule or regulation prohibits Obligor from making such payment or would penalize
Lenders if Obligor makes such payment or if, in the opinion of Agent, the making
of such payment might result in the imposition of interest beyond the maximum
amount permitted by applicable law, then the entire balance of the principal sum
secured by this Mortgage and all interest accrued thereon shall, at the option
of Agent, become due and payable unless, within ninety (90) days thereafter,
Obligor shall substitute property unaffected by such tax considerations for the
Property and otherwise satisfy the conditions for release of the Property set
forth in Section 5.5 of the Credit Agreement.
(b) Obligor will pay all taxes, liens, assessments and
charges of every character including all utility charges, whether public or
private, already levied or assessed or that may hereafter be levied or assessed
upon or against the Property as required under the Credit Agreement. If the
Agent shall collect escrow funds under Section 7.8 of the Credit Agreement with
respect to such taxes, liens, assessments and charges, such funds will be made
available for payment of the same.
(c) Obligor will not suffer any mechanic's, materialmen's,
laborer's, statutory or other lien to be created and to remain outstanding upon
all or any part of the Property other than Permitted Encumbrances.
1.04 Insurance.
(a) Obligor shall procure for, deliver to and maintain for
the benefit of Agent and Lenders during the term of this Mortgage, original
insurance policies (or a master policy) issued by insurance companies, in
amounts, in form and substance, and with expiration dates reasonably acceptable
to Agent and containing non-contributory standard mortgagee clauses, their
equivalent or a satisfactory mortgagee loss payable endorsement in favor of
Agent, providing the following types of insurance on the Property:
(i) insurance against loss or damage by fire, lightning,
vandalism, malicious mischief and flood (if the Land is in an area which is
considered a flood risk area by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban
Development), and against such other hazards as are presently included in
so-called "all risk replacement cost insurance" and against such other insurable
hazards as, under good insurance practices, from time to time are insured
against for properties of similar character and location; the amount of which
insurance shall be not less than one hundred percent (100%) of the full
replacement cost of the Property without deduction for depreciation; and which
policies of insurance shall contain satisfactory replacement cost endorsements;
(ii) During the course of construction or repair of any
improvements on the Land, the insurance required by clause (i) above shall be
written on a builders risk, completed value, non-reporting form, meeting all of
the terms required by clause (i) above, covering the total value of work
performed, materials, equipment, machinery and supplies furnished, existing
structures, and temporary structures being erected on or near the Land,
including coverage against collapse and damage during transit or while being
stored off-site, and containing a soft costs (including loss of rents) coverage
endorsement and a permission to occupy endorsement;
(iii) rent or business interruption insurance against loss
of income arising out of damage or destruction by fire, lightning, vandalism,
malicious mischief and flood and such other hazards as are presently included in
so-called "all risk replacement cost insurance" in the amount equal to the gross
annual income derived by Obligor from the Property; and
(iv) Commercial general liability insurance against claims
for personal injury (to include, without limitation, bodily injury and personal
and advertising injury) and property damage liability, all on an occurrence
basis, if commercially available, with such coverages as the Agent may
reasonably request (including, without limitation, contractual liability
coverage, completed operations coverage for a period of two years following
completion of construction of any improvements on the Land, and coverages
equivalent to an ISO broad form endorsement), with a general aggregate limit of
not less than $2,000,000, a completed operations aggregate limit of not less
than $2,000,000, and a combined single "per occurrence" limit of not less than
$1,000,000 for bodily injury and property damage and $5,000 for medical
payments;
(v) During the course of construction or repair of any
improvements on the Land, to the extent not provided by the general contractor,
owner's contingent or protective liability insurance covering claims not covered
by or under the terms or provisions of the insurance required by clause (iv)
above;
(vi) Employers liability insurance;
(vii) Umbrella liability insurance with limits of not less
than $20,000,000 to be in excess of the limits of the insurance required by
clauses (iv), (v) and (vi) above, with coverage at least as broad as the primary
coverages of the insurance required by clauses (iv), (v) and (vi) above, with
any excess liability insurance to be at least as broad as the coverages of the
lead umbrella policy. All such policies shall be endorsed to provide defense
coverage obligations;
(viii) Workers' compensation insurance for all employees of
the Obligor; and
(ix) Such other insurance in such form and in such amounts
as may from time to time be reasonably required by the Agent against other
insurable hazards and casualties which at the time are commonly insured against
in the case of properties of similar character and location to the Property.
Obligor shall pay all premiums on insurance policies. The insurance policies
provided for in clauses (iv), (v) and (vii) above with respect to the Property
shall name the Agent and each Lender as an additional insured and shall contain
a cross liability/severability endorsement. The insurance policies provided for
in clauses (i), (ii), and (iii) above shall name the Agent as mortgagee and loss
payee, shall be first payable in case of loss to the Agent, and shall contain
mortgagee clauses and lender's loss payable endorsements in form and substance
reasonably acceptable to the Agent. Obligor shall deliver duplicate originals or
certified copies of all such policies to the Agent.
All policies of insurance required by this Mortgage shall contain clauses or
endorsements to the effect that (i) no act or omission of the Obligor or any of
its subsidiaries or anyone acting for the Obligor or any such subsidiary
(including, without limitation, any representations made in the procurement of
such insurance), which might otherwise result in a forfeiture of such insurance
or any part thereof, no occupancy or use of the Property for purposes more
hazardous then permitted by the terms of the policy, and no foreclosure or any
other change in title to the Property or any part thereof, shall affect the
validity or enforceability of such insurance insofar as the Agent is concerned,
(ii) the insurer waives any right of setoff, counterclaim, subrogation, or any
deduction in respect of any liability of the Obligor or any such subsidiary and
the Agent, (iii) such insurance is primary and without right of contribution
from any other insurance which may be available, (iv) such policies shall not be
modified, canceled or terminated prior to the scheduled expiration date thereof
without the insurer thereunder giving at least 30 days prior written notice to
the Agent by certified or registered mail, and (v) that the Agent or the Lenders
shall not be liable for any premiums thereon or subject to any assessments
thereunder, and shall in all events be in amounts sufficient to avoid any
coinsurance liability.
Neither the Obligor nor any of its subsidiaries shall carry separate insurance,
concurrent in kind or form or contributing in the event of loss, with any
insurance required under this Mortgage unless such insurance complies with the
terms and provisions of this Section 1.04.
(b) Agent is hereby authorized and empowered, at its option,
after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to
adjust or compromise any loss under any insurance policies maintained pursuant
to this Paragraph 1.04, and to collect and receive the proceeds from any such
policy or policies. Each insurance company is hereby authorized and directed to
make payment for all such losses directly to Agent, instead of to Obligor and
Agent jointly. In the event any insurance company fails to disburse directly and
solely to Agent but disburses instead either solely to Obligor or to Obligor and
Agent jointly, Obligor agrees immediately to endorse and transfer such proceeds
to Agent. Upon the failure of Obligor to endorse and transfer such proceeds as
aforesaid, Agent may execute such endorsements or transfers for and in the name
of Obligor and Obligor hereby irrevocably appoints Agent as Obligor's agent and
attorney-in-fact so to do. Agent shall not be held responsible for any failure
to collect any insurance proceeds due under the terms of any policy regardless
of the cause of such failure.
(c) At least thirty (30) days prior to the expiration date of
each policy maintained pursuant to this Paragraph 1.04, a renewal or replacement
thereof complying with the requirements of this Paragraph 1.04 shall be
delivered to Agent. Obligor shall deliver to Agent receipts evidencing the
payment for all such insurance policies and renewals or replacements. The
delivery of any insurance policies hereunder shall constitute an assignment of
all unearned premiums as further security hereunder. In the event of the
foreclosure of this Mortgage or any other transfer of title to the Property in
extinguishment of the Secured Obligations secured hereby, all right, title and
interest of Obligor in and to all insurance policies then in force shall pass to
the purchaser or Agent.
1.05 Condemnation. If all or any "material" portion of the Property shall be
damaged or taken through condemnation (which term when used in this Mortgage
shall include any damage or taking by any governmental authority or any transfer
by private sale in lieu thereof), either temporarily or permanently, then Agent
shall be entitled to receive all compensation, awards and other payments or
relief thereof, and Agent is hereby authorized, at its option, after the
occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to commence,
appear in and prosecute, in its own or in Obligor'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 the right thereto are hereby assigned by Obligor to
Agent. After deducting from said condemnation proceeds all of its expenses
incurred in the collection and administration of such sums, including reasonable
attorney's fees, Agent may apply the net proceeds or any part thereof, at its
option, (a) to the payment of the Secured Obligations hereby secured, whether or
not due and in whatever order Agent elects, (b) to the repair and/or restoration
of the Property or (c) for any other purposes or objects for which Agent is
entitled to advance funds under this Mortgage, all without affecting the lien of
this Mortgage; and any balance of such monies then remaining shall be paid to
Obligor. Obligor agrees to execute such further assignment of any compensation,
awards, damages, claims, rights of action and proceeds as Agent may require. For
the purposes of this Section 1.05 any condemnation or taking shall be deemed to
be "material" in the event that (a) such taking has a material adverse effect
upon the means of access from the public streets to the improvements or the
number of parking spaces available at the Property (unless Obligor shall provide
reasonable substitutes therefor), (b) the improvements are severed by such
taking, (c) the taking makes it impractical or inefficient (after the
restoration or repair of the Property) for the continued conduct of business at
the Property in the same manner as such business was conducted prior to such
taking as determined by Agent, or (d) Agent shall determine that following such
repair or restoration there shall be a fifteen percent (15%) or more reduction
in the occupancy or in rental income (excluding any proceeds from rental loss
insurance or proceeds from such award allocable to rent).
1.06 Restoration and Repair. If all or any part of the Property shall be damaged
by fire or other casualty, Obligor will promptly restore the Property to the
equivalent of its original condition; and if a part of the Property shall be
damaged through condemnation, Obligor will promptly restore, repair or alter the
remaining portions of the Property in a manner satisfactory to Agent.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Obligor shall not be obligated to so restore
unless in each instance, Agent agrees to make available to Obligor (pursuant to
a procedure satisfactory to Agent) any net insurance or condemnation proceeds
actually received by Agent hereunder in connection with such casualty loss or
condemnation, to the extent such proceeds are required to defray the expense of
such restoration; provided, however, that the insufficiency of any such
insurance or condemnation proceeds to defray the entire expense of restoration
shall in no way relieve Obligor of its obligation to restore. In the event all
or any portion of the Property shall be damaged or destroyed by fire or other
casualty or by condemnation, Obligor shall promptly deposit with Agent a sum
equal to the amount by which the estimated cost of the restoration of the
Property (as determined by Agent in its good faith judgment) exceeds the actual
net insurance or condemnation proceeds received by Agent in connection with such
damage or destruction.
1.07 Care, Use and Management of Property.
(a) Obligor will keep, or cause to be kept, the buildings,
roads and walkways, landscaping and all other improvements of any kind now or
hereafter erected on the Land or any part thereof in good condition and repair,
will not commit or suffer any material waste and will not do or suffer to be
done anything which will increase the risk of fire or other hazard to the
Property or any part thereof.
(b) Obligor will not remove or demolish nor alter the
structural character of any building located on the Land in a manner that would
materially and adversely affect its value without the written consent of Agent.
(c) If the Property or any part thereof is materially damaged
by fire or any other cause, Obligor will give immediate written notice thereof
to Agent.
(d) To the extent permitted under the terms of the applicable
Leases, each Lender or its representative is hereby authorized to enter upon and
inspect the Property at any time during normal business hours.
(e) Obligor will promptly comply in all material respects
with all present and future laws, ordinances, rules and regulations of any
governmental authority affecting the Property or any part thereof.
1.08 Leases and Other Agreements Affecting Property. Obligor will duly and
punctually perform in all material respects all terms, covenants, conditions and
agreements binding upon it under any Lease or any other agreement of any nature
whatsoever which involves or affects the Property or any part thereof. Obligor
will not enter into, modify, surrender or terminate, either orally or in
writing, any Lease now existing or hereafter created upon the Property or any
part thereof, nor will Obligor permit an assignment or a subletting by any
tenant other than in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement. Obligor
will not accept payment of rent more than one (1) month in advance without the
prior written consent of Agent. In order to further secure payment of the
Secured Obligations and the observance, performance and discharge of Obligor's
obligations, Obligor hereby collaterally assigns, transfers and sets over unto
Agent all of Obligor's right, title and interest in, to and under all Leases
affecting the Property or any part thereof and in and to all of the rents,
issues, profits, revenues, awards and other benefits now or hereafter arising
from the use and enjoyment of the Property or any part thereof; reserving only
the right to Obligor to collect and use the same so long as no Event of Default
is continuing.
Agent shall be entitled to require, and Obligor shall use its best efforts to
obtain, the execution of tenant estoppels and subordination, non-disturbance and
attornment agreements from any Major Tenant (as defined in the Credit Agreement)
in a form specified by the related tenant Lease, if any, and reasonably
acceptable to Agent. Obligor hereby authorizes and directs each present and
future tenant of the Property to pay to Agent all rents and any other sums due
Obligor as landlord and to perform for the direct benefit of Agent any other
obligations of such tenant to Obligor as landlord, as if Agent were the landlord
under such tenant's Lease, immediately upon receipt of a written demand by Agent
to make such payment or perform such obligation during the existence of an Event
of Default. No such demand by Agent shall constitute or be deemed to constitute
any assumption by Agent of any obligations of the landlord under such tenant's
Lease. No such demand by Agent shall constitute or be deemed to constitute any
wrongful interference by Agent in the affairs or business relationships for
ascertaining whether any such demand by Agent is authorized or whether a default
by Obligor has occurred under this Mortgage. Obligor hereby waives any right,
claim or action Obligor may now or hereafter have against any such tenant by
reason of such tenant's payment to or performance for Agent as described above,
and any such payment to or performance for Agent shall discharge the obligation
of such tenant to make such payment to, or perform such obligation for, Obligor.
Obligor shall furnish the Agent with signed copies of all new, modified or
renewal Leases affecting the Property, as required pursuant to the terms and
provisions of the Credit Agreement.
1.09 Security Agreement.
(a) Insofar as the machinery, apparatus, equipment, fittings,
fixtures, building supplies and materials, and articles of personal property
either referred to or described in this Mortgage, or in any way connected with
the use and enjoyment of the Property is concerned, this Mortgage is hereby made
and declared to be a security agreement, encumbering each and every item of
personal property (the "Personal Property") included herein, in compliance with
the provisions of the Uniform Commercial Code as enacted in the applicable
jurisdiction as set forth in Section 3.04 below (the "UCC"). A financing
statement or statements reciting this Mortgage to be a security agreement,
affecting all of said personal property aforementioned, shall be appropriately
filed. The remedies for any violation of the covenants, terms and conditions of
the security agreement herein contained shall be (i) as prescribed herein, or
(ii) as prescribed by general law, or (iii) as prescribed by the specific
statutory consequences now or hereafter enacted and specified in said UCC, all
at Agent's sole election. Obligor and Agent agree that the filing of such
financing statement(s) in the records normally having to do with personal
property shall never be construed as in any way derogating from or impairing
this declaration and hereby stated intention of Obligor and Agent that, to the
extent permitted by applicable law, 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 Mortgage, 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 irrespective of whether (i) any such item is
physically attached to the improvements, (ii) serial numbers are used for the
better identification of certain items capable of being thus identified in a
recital contained herein, or (iii) any such item is referred to or reflected in
any such financing statement(s) so filed at any time. Similarly, the mention in
any such financing statement(s) of the rights in and to (1) 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) Obligor'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 anyway altering any of the rights of Agent as
determined by this Mortgage or impugning the priority of Agent's lien granted
hereby or by any other recorded document, but such mention in such financing
statement(s) is declared to be for the protection of Agent in the event any
court shall at any time hold with respect to the foregoing (1), (2) or (3), that
notice of Agent's priority of interest to be effective against a particular
class of persons, must be filed in the UCC records.
(b) Obligor warrants that (i) Obligor's (that is, "Debtor's")
correct legal name (including, without limitation, punctuation and spacing)
indicated on the public record of Obligor's jurisdiction of organization,
identity or corporate structure, residence or chief executive office and
jurisdiction of organization are as set forth in Subparagraph 1.09(c) hereof;
(ii) Obligor (that is, "Debtor") has been using or operating under said name,
identity or corporate structure without change for the time period set forth in
Subparagraph 1.09(c) hereof, and (iii) the location of the collateral secured by
this Mortgage is upon the Land. Obligor covenants and agrees that Obligor shall
not change any of the matters addressed by clauses (i) or (iii) of this
Subparagraph 1.09(b), other than transfer, sale or replacement of personal
property in the ordinary course, unless it has given Agent thirty (30) days
prior written notice of any such change and has executed or authorized at the
request of Agent, such additional financing statements or other instruments to
be filed in such jurisdictions as Agent may deem necessary or advisable in its
sole discretion to prevent any filed financing statement from becoming
misleading or losing its perfected status.
(c) The information contained in this Subparagraph 1.09(c) is
provided in order that this Mortgage shall comply with the requirements of the
Uniform Commercial Code, as enacted in the State of Florida, for instruments to
be filed as financing statements. The names of the "Debtor" and the "Secured
Party", the identity or corporate structure, jurisdiction of organization,
organizational number, federal tax identification number, and residence or chief
executive office of "Debtor", and the time period for which "Debtor" has been
using or operating under said name and identity or corporate structure without
change, are as set forth in Schedule 1 of Exhibit "C" attached hereto and by
this reference made a part hereof; the mailing address of the "Secured Party"
from which information concerning the security interest may be obtained, and the
mailing address of "Debtor", are as set forth in Schedule 2 of Exhibit "C"
attached hereto; and a statement indicating the types, or describing the items,
of collateral secured by this Mortgage is set forth hereinabove.
(d) Exhibit "C" correctly sets forth all names and tradenames
that Obligor has used within the last five years, and also correctly sets forth
the locations of all of the chief executive offices of Obligor over the last
five years.
(e) The Obligor hereby covenants and agrees that:
(i) Obligor shall not merge or consolidate into, or
transfer any of the Property to, any other person or entity except as permitted
under the Credit Agreement.
(ii) Obligor shall, at any time and from time to time, take
such steps as Agent may reasonably request for Agent (A) to obtain an
acknowledgment, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Agent, of any
bailee having possession of any of the Property, stating that the bailee holds
possession of such Property on behalf of Agent, (B) to obtain "control" of any
investment property, deposit accounts, letter-of-credit rights, or electronic
chattel paper (as such terms are defined by the UCC with corresponding
provisions thereof defining what constitutes "control" for such items of
collateral), with any agreements establishing control to be in form and
substance reasonably satisfactory to Agent, and (C) otherwise to insure the
continued perfection and priority of the Agent's security interest in any of the
Property and of the preservation of its rights therein. If Obligor shall at any
time acquire a "commercial tort claim" (as such term is defined in the UCC) with
respect to the Property or any portion thereof, Obligor shall promptly notify
Agent thereof in writing, providing a reasonable description and summary
thereof, and shall execute a supplement to this Mortgage in form and substance
acceptable to Agent granting a security interest in such commercial tort claim
to Agent.
(iii) Obligor hereby authorizes Agent, its counsel or its
representative, at any time and from time to time, to file financing statements,
amendments and continuations that describe or relate to the Property or any
portion thereof in such jurisdictions as Agent may deem necessary in order to
perfect the security interests granted by Obligor under this Mortgage or any
other Loan Document, and such financing statements may contain, among other
items as Agent may deem advisable to include therein, the federal tax
identification number of Obligor, and may describe the property covered by such
financing statements as "all assets of Obligor," "all personal property of
Obligor" or words of similar effect.
1.10 Further Assurances; After-Acquired Property. At any time, and from time to
time, upon request by Agent, Obligor will make, execute and deliver or cause to
be made, executed and delivered, to Agent and, where appropriate, cause to be
recorded and/or filed and from time to time thereafter to be rerecorded and/or
refiled at such time and in such offices and places as shall be deemed necessary
by Agent, any and all such other and further deeds to secure debt, security
agreements, financing statements, notice filings, continuation statements,
instruments of further assurance, certificates and other documents as may, in
the reasonable opinion of Agent, be necessary in order to effectuate, complete,
or perfect, or to continue and preserve this Mortgage as a first and prior lien
upon and security title in and to all of the Property, whether now owned or
hereafter acquired by Obligor. Upon any failure by Obligor so to do, Agent may
make, execute, record, file, re-record and/or refile any and all such deeds to
secure debt, security agreements, financing statements, continuation statements,
instruments, certificates, and documents for and in the name of Obligor and
Obligor hereby irrevocably appoints Agent the agent and attorney-in-fact of
Obligor so to do. The lien hereof will automatically attach, without further
act, to all after acquired property attached to and/or used in the operation of
the Property or any part thereof.
1.11 Expenses. Obligor will pay or reimburse Agent, upon demand therefor, for
all reasonable attorney's fees, costs and expenses incurred by Agent in any
suit, action, legal proceeding or dispute of any kind in which Lenders or Agent
is made a party or appears as party plaintiff or defendant, affecting or arising
in connection with the Secured Obligations secured hereby, this Mortgage or the
interest created herein, or the Property, including, but not limited to, the
exercise of the power of sale contained in this Mortgage, any condemnation
action involving the Property or any action to protect the security hereof; and
any such amounts paid by Lenders or Agent shall be added to the Secured
Obligations secured by the lien of this Mortgage.
1.12 Subrogation. Agent shall be subrogated to the claims and liens of all
parties whose claims or liens are discharged or paid with the proceeds of the
Secured Obligations secured hereby.
1.13 Limit of Validity. If from any circumstances whatsoever fulfillment of any
provision of this Mortgage or of the Note, at the time performance of such
provision shall be due, shall involve transcending the limit of validity
presently prescribed by any applicable usury statute or any other applicable
law, with regard to obligations of like character and amount, then ipso facto
the obligation to be fulfilled shall be reduced to the limit of such validity,
so that in no event shall any exaction be possible under this Mortgage or under
the Note that is in excess of the current limit of such validity, but such
obligation shall be fulfilled to the limit of such validity. The provisions of
this Paragraph 1.13 shall control every other provision of this Mortgage and of
the Note.
1.14 Use of Property. Obligor shall not be permitted to alter or change the use
of the Property or to abandon the Property without the prior written consent of
Agent.
1.15 Conveyance of Property. Obligor hereby acknowledges to Agent that (a) the
identity and expertise of Obligor was and continues to be a material
circumstance upon which Agent has relied in connection with, and which
constitute valuable consideration to Agent for, the extending to Obligor of the
loan evidenced by the Note, and (b) any change in such identity or expertise
could materially impair or jeopardize the security for the payment of the
Secured Obligations granted to Agent by this Mortgage. Obligor therefore
covenants and agrees with Agent, as part of the consideration for the extending
to Obligor of the loans evidenced by the Note, that Obligor shall not convey,
transfer, assign, further encumber or pledge any or all of its interest in the
Property except as permitted under the Credit Agreement.
ARTICLE 2
2.01 Events of Default. The terms "Default" and "Event of Default" as used
herein shall have the following meanings:
"Default" shall mean any event which, with the giving of
notice or the lapse of time, or both, would become an Event of
Default.
"Event of Default" shall mean (a) any default in the payment
of the obligations of Obligor hereunder or under any of the
other Loan Documents (as defined in the Credit Agreement) when
the same shall become due and payable which is not cured
within any grace or notice and cure period provided in the
Credit Agreement or such other Loan Documents(for purposes of
this definition, the grace period for a monetary default where
no other period is specified is five (5) days), if any,
subject to any limitations in the Credit Agreement on the
right of Obligor to receive notices of default or (b) any
default in the performance of any other obligations of Obligor
hereunder which is not cured within any cure period provided
in the Credit Agreement (it being acknowledged by Obligor that
no such cure period is provided with respect to a failure to
maintain insurance as required in Section 1.04, any default
under Section 1.09, any default under Section 1.15, or any
default excluded from any provision for cure of defaults
contained in the Credit Agreement, the Security Documents (as
defined in the Credit Agreement) or any other agreement
evidencing or securing the Secured Obligations), or (c) any
representation or warranty of Obligor hereunder proving to be
false or incorrect in any material respect upon the date when
made or deemed to have been repeated, or (d) any default in
the performance of the obligations of Obligor or any other
Person under any of the Security Documents beyond the
expiration of any applicable notice and cure period, (e) the
occurrence of any "Event of Default" under the Credit
Agreement, or (f) except as may be permitted or required
hereby, in the Credit Agreement or in any of the other
Security Documents, any amendment to or termination of a
financing statement naming Obligor as debtor and Agent as
secured party, or any correction statement with respect
thereto, is filed in any jurisdiction by, or caused by, or at
the instance of Obligor or by, or caused by, or at the
instance of any principal, member, general partner or officer
of Obligor (collectively, "Obligor Party") without the prior
written consent of Agent; or (g) except as may be permitted or
required hereby, in the Credit Agreement or in any of the
other Security Documents, any amendment to or termination of a
financing statement naming Obligor as debtor and Agent as
secured party, or any correction statement with respect
thereto, is filed in any jurisdiction by any party other than
an Obligor Party or Agent or Agent's counsel without the prior
written consent of Agent and Obligor fails to use its best
efforts to cause the effect of such filing to be completely
nullified to the reasonable satisfaction of Agent within ten
(10) days after notice to Obligor thereof."
2.02 Acceleration of Maturity. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, then the entire Secured Obligations secured hereby shall, at the
option of Agent and as permitted by the terms of the Credit Agreement,
immediately become due and payable without notice or demand, time being of the
essence of this Mortgage.
2.03 Right to Enter and Take Possession. To the extent available or permitted
under applicable Florida law:
(a) If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, Obligor upon demand of Agent, shall forthwith surrender to Agent the
actual possession of the Property and if, and to the extent, permitted by law,
Agent itself, or by such officers or agents as it may appoint, may enter and
take possession of all the Property without the appointment of a receiver, or an
application therefor, and may exclude Obligor and its agents and employees
wholly therefrom, and may have joint access with Obligor to the books, papers
and accounts of Obligor.
(b) If Obligor shall for any reason fail to surrender or
deliver the Property or any part thereof after such demand by Agent, Agent may
obtain a judgment or decree conferring upon Agent the right to immediate
possession or requiring Obligor to deliver immediate possession of the Property
to Agent. Obligor will pay to Agent, upon demand, all expenses of obtaining such
judgment or decree, including reasonable compensation to Agent, its attorneys
and agents; and all such expenses and compensation shall, until paid, be secured
by the lien of this Mortgage.
(c) Upon every such entering upon or taking of possession,
Agent 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; (iii) manage and operate the Property and exercise all the rights and
powers of Obligor to the same extent as Obligor could in its own name or
otherwise with respect to the same; and (iv) enter into any and all agreements
with respect to the exercise by others of any of the powers herein granted
Agent, all as Agent from time to time may determine to be in its best interest.
Agent may collect and receive all the rents, issues, profits and revenues from
the Property, including those past due as well as those accruing thereafter,
and, after deducting (1) all expenses of taking, holding, managing and operating
the Property (including compensation for the services of all persons employed
for such purposes); (2) the cost of all such maintenance, repairs, renewals,
replacements, additions, betterments, improvements, purchases and acquisitions;
(3) the cost of such insurance; (4) such taxes, assessments and other similar
charges as Agent may at its option pay; (5) other proper charges upon the
Property or any part thereof; and (6) the reasonable compensation, expenses and
disbursements of the attorneys and agents of Agent, Agent shall apply the
remainder of the monies and proceeds so received by Agent, in accordance with
Section 12.4 of the Credit Agreement. Agent shall have no obligation to
discharge any duties of a landlord to any tenant or to incur any liability as a
result of any exercise by Agent of any rights under this Mortgage or otherwise.
Agent shall not be liable for any failure to collect rents, issues, profits and
revenues from the Property, nor shall Agent be liable to account for any such
rents, issues, profits or revenues unless actually received by Agent.
(d) Whenever all that is due upon the Secured Obligations and
under any of the terms, covenants, conditions and agreements of this Mortgage,
shall have been paid and all Events of Default made good, Agent shall surrender
possession of the Property to Obligor, its successors or assigns. The same right
of taking possession, however, shall exist if any subsequent Event of Default
shall occur and be continuing.
2.04 Performance by Agent. If Obligor shall Default in the payment, performance
or observance of any term, covenant or condition of this Mortgage, Agent may, so
long as such Default continues, at its option, pay, perform or observe the same,
and all payments made or reasonable costs or expenses incurred by Agent in
connection therewith, shall be secured hereby and shall be, upon demand,
immediately repaid by Obligor to Agent with interest thereon at the default rate
of interest set forth in Section 4.9 of the Credit Agreement (the "Default
Rate"). Agent shall be the sole judge of the necessity for any such actions and
of the reasonable amounts to be paid. Agent is hereby empowered to enter and to
authorize others to enter upon the Land or any part thereof for the purpose of
performing or observing any such defaulted term, covenant or condition without
thereby becoming liable to Obligor or any person in possession holding under
Obligor.
2.05 Receiver. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing,
Agent, upon application to a court of competent jurisdiction, shall be entitled
as a matter of strict right without notice and without regard to the occupancy
or value of any security for the Secured Obligations secured hereby or the
solvency of any party bound for its payment, to the appointment of a receiver to
take possession of and to operate the Property and to collect and apply the
rents, issues, profits and revenues thereof. The receiver shall have all of the
rights and powers permitted under the laws of the State of Florida. Obligor will
pay to Agent upon demand all reasonable expenses, including receiver's fees,
attorney's fees, costs and agent's compensation, incurred pursuant to the
provisions of this Paragraph 2.05; and all such expenses shall be secured by
this Mortgage.
2.06 Enforcement.
(a) If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, Agent, at its option, may foreclose this Mortgage and sell the
Property or any part of the Property pursuant to any type of foreclosure
proceedings available under Florida law.
(b) If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, Agent may, in addition to and not in abrogation of the rights
covered under subparagraph (a) of this Paragraph 2.06, either with or without
entry or taking possession as herein provided or otherwise, proceed by a suit or
suits in law or in equity or by any other appropriate proceeding or remedy (i)
to enforce payment of the Secured Obligations or the performance of any term,
covenant, condition or agreement of this Mortgage or any other right, and (ii)
to pursue any other remedy available to it, all as Agent shall determine most
effectual for such purposes.
2.07 Purchase by Agent. Upon any foreclosure sale, Agent, on behalf of the
Lenders, may bid for and purchase the Property and shall be entitled to apply
all or any part of the Secured Obligations secured hereby as a credit to the
purchase price.
2.08 Application of Proceeds of Sale. The proceeds received by Agent as a result
of a foreclosure sale of the Property or the exercise of any other rights or
remedies hereunder, shall be applied in the manner provided for in Section 12.4
of the Credit Agreement.
2.09 Obligor as Tenant Holding Over. In the event of any such foreclosure sale
by Agent, Obligor shall be deemed a tenant holding over and shall forthwith
deliver possession to the purchaser or purchasers at such sale or be summarily
dispossessed according to provisions of law applicable to tenants holding over.
2.10 Waiver of Appraisement, Valuation, Stay and Extension Laws. Obligor agrees
to the full extent permitted by law, that in case of a Default or Event of
Default on the part of Obligor hereunder, neither Obligor nor anyone claiming
through or under it shall or will set up, claim or seek to take advantage of any
appraisement, valuation, stay, extension, homestead or exemption laws now or
hereafter in force, in order to prevent or hinder the enforcement or foreclosure
of this Mortgage, or the absolute sale of the Property, or the final and
absolute putting into possession thereof, immediately after such sale, of the
purchasers thereat, and Obligor, for itself and all who may at any time claim
through or under it, hereby waives to the full extent that it may lawfully so
do, the benefit of all such laws, and any and all right to have the assets
comprised in the security intended to be created hereby marshaled upon any
foreclosure of the lien hereof.
2.11 Waiver of Homestead. Obligor hereby waives and renounces all homestead and
exemption rights provided for by the Constitution and the laws of the United
States and of any state, in and to the Property as against the collection of the
Secured Obligations, or any part hereof.
2.12 Leases. Agent, at its option, is authorized to foreclose this Mortgage
subject to the rights of any tenants of the Property, and the failure to make
any such tenants parties to any such foreclosure proceedings and to foreclose
their rights will not be, nor be asserted to be by Obligor, a defense to any
proceedings instituted by Agent to collect the sums secured hereby.
2.13 Discontinuance of Proceedings and Restoration of the Parties. In case Agent
shall have proceeded to enforce any right, power or remedy under this Mortgage
by foreclosure, entry or otherwise, and such proceedings shall have been
discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or shall have been determined
adversely to Agent, then and in every such case Obligor and Agent shall be
restored to their former positions and rights hereunder, and all rights, powers
and remedies of Agent shall continue as if no such proceeding had been taken.
2.14 Remedies Cumulative. No right, power or remedy conferred upon or reserved
to Agent by this Mortgage is intended to be exclusive of any other right, power
or remedy, but each and every such right, power and remedy shall be cumulative
and concurrent and shall be in addition to any other right, power and remedy
given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute.
2.15 Waiver.
(a) No delay or omission of Agent or of any Lender to
exercise any right, power or remedy accruing upon any Default shall exhaust or
impair any such right, power or remedy or shall be construed to be a waiver of
any such Default, or acquiescence therein; and every right, power and remedy
given by this Mortgage to Agent may be exercised from time to time and as often
as may be deemed expedient by Agent. No consent or waiver, expressed or implied,
by Agent to or of any breach or Default by Obligor in the performance of the
obligations thereof hereunder shall be deemed or construed to be a consent or
waiver to or of any other breach or Default in the performance of the same or
any other obligations of Obligor hereunder. Failure on the part of Lenders to
complain of any act or failure to act or to declare an Event of Default,
irrespective of how long such failure continues, shall not constitute a waiver
by any Lender of its rights hereunder or impair any rights, powers or remedies
consequent on any breach or Default by Obligor.
(b) If Lenders or Agent on behalf of the Lenders, (i) grant
forbearance or an extension of time for the payment of any sums secured hereby;
(ii) take other or additional security for the payment of any sums secured
hereby; (iii) waive or do not exercise any right granted herein or in the Note,
the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Documents (as defined in the Credit
Agreement); (iv) release any part of the Property from the lien of this Mortgage
or otherwise changes any of the terms, covenants, conditions or agreements of
the Note or this Mortgage; (v) consent to the filing of any map, plat or replat
affecting the Property; (vi) consent to the granting of any easement or other
right affecting the Property; or (vii) make or consent to any agreement
subordinating the lien hereof, any such act or omission shall not release,
discharge, modify, change or affect the original liability under the Note, the
Credit Agreement, this Mortgage or any other obligation of Obligor or any
subsequent purchaser of the Property or any part thereof, or any maker,
co-signer, endorser, surety or guarantor; nor shall any such act or omission
preclude Agent from exercising any right, power or privilege herein granted or
intended to be granted in the event of any Default then made or of any
subsequent Default; nor, except as otherwise expressly provided in an instrument
or instruments executed by Agent, shall the lien of this Mortgage be altered
thereby. In the event of the sale or transfer by operation of law or otherwise
of all or any part of the Property, Agent, without notice, is hereby authorized
and empowered to deal with any such vendee or transferee with reference to the
Property or the Secured Obligations secured hereby, or with reference to any of
the terms, covenants, conditions or agreements hereof, as fully and to the same
extent as it might deal with the original parties hereto and without in any way
releasing or discharging any liabilities, obligations or undertakings.
2.16 Suits to Protect the Property. Agent shall have power (a) to institute and
maintain such suits and proceedings as it may deem expedient to prevent any
impairment of the Property by any acts which may be unlawful or in violation of
this Mortgage, (b) to preserve or protect its interest in the Property and in
the rents, issues, profits and revenues arising therefrom, and (c) to restrain
the enforcement of or compliance with any legislation or other governmental
enactment, rule or order that may be unconstitutional or otherwise invalid, if
the enforcement of or compliance with such enactment, rule or order would
materially impair the security hereunder or be prejudicial to the interest of
Lenders.
2.17 Agent May File Proofs of Claim. In the case of any receivership,
insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or
other proceedings affecting Obligor, its creditors or its property, Agent, 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 the claims of
Agent allowed in such proceedings for the entire amount due and payable by
Obligor under this Mortgage at the date of the institution of such proceedings
and for any additional amount which may become due and payable by Obligor
hereunder after such date.
2.18 Indemnification; Subrogation; Waiver of Offset.
(a) Obligor shall indemnify, defend and hold Agent and the
Lenders harmless for, from and against any and all liability, Secured
Obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims, actions, suits, costs and
expenses (including Agent's reasonable attorneys' fees, together with reasonable
appellate counsel fees, if any) of whatever kind or nature which may be asserted
against, imposed on or incurred by Agent and the Lenders in connection with the
Secured Obligations, this Mortgage, the Property, or any part thereof, or the
exercise by Agent of any rights or remedies granted to it under this Mortgage;
provided, however, that nothing herein shall be construed to obligate Obligor to
indemnify, defend and hold harmless Agent and the Lenders for, from and against
any and all liabilities, Secured Obligations, losses, damages, penalties,
claims, actions, suits, costs and expenses asserted against, imposed on or
incurred by Agent or a Lender by reason of Agent's or such Lender's willful
misconduct or gross negligence.
(b) If Agent or a Lender is made a party defendant to any
litigation or any claim is threatened or brought against Agent or a Lender
concerning the Secured Obligations, this Mortgage, the Property, or any part
thereof, or any interest therein, or the construction, maintenance, operation or
occupancy or use thereof, then Obligor shall indemnify, defend and hold Agent
and the Lenders harmless for, from and against all liability by reason of said
litigation or claims, including reasonable attorneys' fees (together with
reasonable appellate counsel fees, if any) and expenses incurred by Agent and
the Lenders in any such litigation or claim, whether or not any such litigation
or claim is prosecuted to judgment; provided, however, that nothing in this
Section 2.20(b) shall be construed to obligate Obligor to indemnify, defend and
hold harmless Agent or a Lender for, from and against any and all liabilities or
claims imposed on or incurred by Agent or a Lender by reason of Agent's or such
Lender's willful misconduct or gross negligence. If Agent commences an action
against Obligor to enforce any of the terms hereof or to prosecute any breach by
Obligor of any of the terms hereof or to recover any sum secured hereby, Obligor
shall pay to Agent its reasonable attorneys' fees (together with reasonable
appellate counsel, fees, if any) and expenses. The right to such attorneys' fees
(together with reasonable appellate counsel fees, if any) and expenses shall be
deemed to have accrued on the commencement of such action, and shall be
enforceable whether or not such action is prosecuted to judgment. If Obligor
breaches any term of this Mortgage, Agent may engage the services of an attorney
or attorneys to protect its rights hereunder, and in the event of such
engagement following any breach by Obligor, Obligor shall pay Agent reasonable
attorneys' fees (together with reasonable appellate counsel fees, if any) and
expenses incurred by Agent, whether or not an action is actually commenced
against Obligor by reason of such breach. All references to "attorneys" in this
Subsection and elsewhere in this Mortgage shall include without limitation any
attorney or law firm engaged by Agent and Agent's in-house counsel, and all
references to "fees and expenses" in this Subsection and elsewhere in this
Mortgage shall include without limitation any reasonable fees of such attorney
or law firm and any allocation charges and allocation costs of Agent's in-house
counsel.
(c) A waiver of subrogation shall be obtained by Obligor from
its insurance carrier and, consequently, Obligor waives any and all right to
claim or recover against Agent, its officers, employees, agents and
representatives, for loss of or damage to Obligor, the Property, Obligor's
property or the property of others under Obligor's control from any cause
insured against or required to be insured against by the provisions of this
Mortgage.
(d) ALL SUMS PAYABLE BY OBLIGOR HEREUNDER SHALL BE PAID
WITHOUT NOTICE (EXCEPT AS MAY OTHERWISE BE PROVIDED HEREIN), DEMAND,
COUNTERCLAIM, SETOFF, DEDUCTION OR DEFENSE AND WITHOUT ABATEMENT, SUSPENSION,
DEFERMENT, DIMINUTION OR REDUCTION, AND THE SECURED OBLIGATIONS AND LIABILITIES
OF OBLIGOR HEREUNDER SHALL IN NO WAY BE RELEASED, DISCHARGED OR OTHERWISE
AFFECTED BY REASON OF: (I) ANY DAMAGE TO OR DESTRUCTION OF OR ANY CONDEMNATION
OR SIMILAR TAKING OF THE PROPERTY OR ANY PART THEREOF; (II) ANY RESTRICTION OR
PREVENTION OF OR INTERFERENCE WITH ANY USE OF THE PROPERTY OR ANY PART THEREOF;
(III) ANY TITLE DEFECT OR ENCUMBRANCE OR ANY EVICTION FROM THE LAND OR THE
IMPROVEMENTS ON THE LAND OR ANY PART THEREOF BY TITLE PARAMOUNT OR OTHERWISE;
(IV) ANY BANKRUPTCY, INSOLVENCY, REORGANIZATION, COMPOSITION, ADJUSTMENT,
DISSOLUTION, LIQUIDATION, OR OTHER LIKE PROCEEDING RELATING TO AGENT, OR ANY
