hereafter made), interest thereon and all other sums due and/or payable, and all
obligations owing by Trustor, under any Loan Document and amendments,
modifications, extensions, substitutions, exchanges and renewals thereof (each

as evidenced by the Note); and (b) all covenants, agreements and other
obligations of Trustor under the Loan Documents;
Trustor
hereby irrevocably grants, bargains, sells, releases, conveys, warrants,
assigns, transfers, mortgages, pledges, sets over and confirms unto Trustee, its

POSSESSION, to have and to hold forever for the security and benefit of
Beneficiary and its successors and assigns, all of Trustor’s right, title and
interest in and to the following property, rights, interests and estates, now
existing or hereafter coming into existence (the property, rights, interests and
estates hereinafter described are collectively referred to herein as the “Mortgaged Property”): (i) all
the land located in the County and State identified on Exhibit A attached

shall pay or cause to be paid to Beneficiary all sums due Beneficiary with
respect to the Loan under the Loan Documents and keep, perform and observe all
the covenants and promises in each of the Loan Documents, all without fraud and
delay, then this Deed of Trust, and all the properties, interests, and rights
hereby granted, bargained, and sold shall cease, terminate and be void and

persons whomsoever.
(b) Trustor
shall execute, acknowledge and deliver, from time to time, such further
instruments as Trustee or Beneficiary may reasonably require to accomplish the
purposes of this Deed of Trust. Trustor hereby irrevocably authorizes and
appoints Beneficiary as its attorney-infact, coupled with an interest, for

ASSIGNMENT
OF RENTS, ISSUES, PROFITS AND CONTRACTS
Section
3.1. Assignment of
Rents, Issues and Profits. Trustor hereby absolutely and unconditionally
assigns to Beneficiary all of Trustor’s right, title and interest in all current
and future Leases and Rents, it being intended that this Deed of Trust
constitute a present, absolute assignment and not an assignment for additional
security only. This Article 3 presently
gives Beneficiary the right to collect Rents and to apply Rents in partial
payment of the Loan Obligations and otherwise in accordance with the Note.
Trustor intends that the Rents and Leases be absolutely assigned and no longer
be, during the term of this Deed of Trust, property of Trustor or Trustor’s
estate, as defined by 11 U.S.C. §541. If any law exists requiring Beneficiary to
take actual possession of the Mortgaged Property (or some action equivalent to
taking possession of the Mortgaged Property, such as securing the appointment of
a receiver) for Beneficiary to “perfect” or “activate” the rights and remedies
of Beneficiary as provided herein, Trustor waives the benefit of such law. Such
assignment to Beneficiary shall not be construed to bind Beneficiary to perform
any covenants, conditions or provisions contained in any Lease or otherwise
impose any obligation upon Beneficiary, and notwithstanding this Deed of Trust,
Trustor shall remain liable for any obligations undertaken by Trustor pursuant
to any Lease. Subject to the terms of this Article 3 and the
Note, Beneficiary grants to Trustor a license, revocable as hereinafter
provided, to operate and manage the Mortgaged Property and to
collect
5
and use
the Rents. If an Event of Default occurs, the license granted to Trustor herein
may, at Beneficiary’s election, be revoked by Beneficiary, and Beneficiary shall
immediately be entitled to possession of all Rents then or thereafter payable
(including Rents past due and unpaid) whether or not Beneficiary enters upon or
takes control of the Mortgaged Property. Any Rents collected by Trustor from and
after the date on which an Event of Default occurred and is continuing shall be
held by Trustor in trust for Beneficiary. Trustor hereby grants and assigns to
Beneficiary the right, at Beneficiary’s option, upon revocation of the license
granted herein, to enter upon the Mortgaged Property in person, by agent or by
court appointed receiver to collect Rents with or without taking the actual
possession of the Mortgaged Property or any equivalent action. Beneficiary may
apply any Rents collected after the license granted herein is revoked in
Beneficiary’s sole and absolute discretion to pay the Loan Obligations in such
order and in such manner as Beneficiary shall elect.
Section
3.2. Assignment of
Contracts. Trustor hereby absolutely and unconditionally assigns to
Beneficiary all of Trustor’s right, title and interest in and to the Contracts
to the maximum extent allowable by law and to the maximum extent allowable under
the terms of each individual Contract, it being intended that this assignment be
an absolute assignment from Trustor to Beneficiary and not merely the granting
of a security interest. Until the occurrence of an Event of Default, Trustor may
retain, use and enjoy the benefits of the Contracts. Upon the occurrence and
during the continuance of an Event of Default, the license described in the
preceding sentence shall, upon Beneficiary’s election, be automatically revoked,
and Beneficiary may elect to exercise any and all of Beneficiary’s rights and
remedies hereunder.
ARTICLE
4
As
additional security, Trustor, as debtor, hereby grants to Beneficiary, as
secured party, a continuing security interest in the portion of the Mortgaged
Property which is or may be subject to the provisions of the UCC which are
applicable to secured transactions, and in any property as to which a security
interest can be created or perfected, now existing or hereafter coming into
existence, and all substitutions replacements, renewals and additions to and all
products and Proceeds of the foregoing (collectively, the “Security Interest
Property”). This Deed of Trust is intended to be and shall be effective
as a security agreement and “fixture filing” under the UCC or other law
applicable to the creation of liens on and security interests in personal
property and fixtures. As further security for the payment and performance of
the Loan Obligations, this Deed of Trust shall constitute a financing statement
under the UCC with Trustor, as debtor, and Beneficiary, as secured party. To the
extent permitted by law, Trustor hereby authorizes Beneficiary to file financing
and continuation statements necessary to continue the lien of and security
interest evidenced by this Deed of Trust with respect to the Security Interest
Property (and confirms that Beneficiary is a person entitled to file a record,
and that Trustor has authorized all such filings, within the meaning of Section
9-509 of the UCC). The principal places of business and mailing addresses of
Trustor, as debtor, and Beneficiary, as secured party, respectively, are as set
forth on page one hereof. Trustor’s location, for purposes of Section 9-307 of
the UCC, is Trustor’s state of incorporation as set forth on page 1 hereof.
Information relative to the security interest created hereby may be obtained by
application to Beneficiary.

ARTICLE
5
REMEDIES
Section
5.1. Acceleration of
Maturity. If an Event of Default shall have occurred, then the entire
Debt and all other Loan Obligations shall, at the option of Beneficiary, become
due and payable without notice or demand, time being of the essence; and any
omission on the part of Beneficiary to exercise such option when entitled to do
so shall not be considered as a waiver of such right. Trustor hereby expressly
waives presentment, demand for payment, notice of protest, notice of dishonor,
notice of intent to accelerate the maturity of the Debt and notice of
acceleration of the maturity of the indebtedness secured hereby.
Section
5.2. Default
Remedies.
(a) If an
Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, this Deed of Trust may,
to the maximum extent permitted by law, be enforced, and Beneficiary, or Trustee
in response to Beneficiary’s request (which Trustor agrees shall be presumed to
have been made), may exercise any right, power or remedy permitted to it
hereunder, under the Note or under any of the other Loan Documents or at law or
in equity, and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Trustee or
Beneficiary may, personally or by their agents, to the maximum extent permitted
by law:
(i) enter
into and take possession of the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof, exclude
Trustor and all persons claiming under Trustor whose claims are junior to this
Deed of Trust, wholly or partly therefrom, and use, operate, manage and control
the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof either in the name of Trustor or
otherwise as Beneficiary shall deem best, and upon such entry, from time to time
at the expense of Trustor and the Mortgaged Property, make all such repairs,
replacements, alterations, additions or improvements to the Mortgaged Property
or any part thereof as Beneficiary may reasonably deem proper and, whether or
not Beneficiary has so entered and taken possession of the Mortgaged Property or
any part thereof, collect and receive all Rents and apply the same to the
payment of all expenses that Trustee or Beneficiary may be authorized to make
under this Deed of Trust, the remainder to be applied to the payment of the Loan
Obligations until the same shall have been repaid in full, take possession of
all security deposits held with respect to the Mortgaged Property, whether or
not Trustee or Beneficiary enters upon or takes control of the Mortgaged
Property and regardless of where any such security deposits are deposited or
located; if Beneficiary demands or attempts to take possession of the Mortgaged
Property or any part thereof in the exercise of any rights hereunder, Trustor
shall promptly turn over and deliver complete possession thereof to
Beneficiary;
(ii) effect
new Permits and Contracts; amend, alter, renew, cancel or surrender existing
Permits and Contracts; and make concessions to the governmental authorities, the
Contractors, warrantors and others; and
(iii) personally
or by agents, with or without entry:
7
(x) invoke
the power of sale and pursuant to the procedures prescribed by law as a result
thereof, sell the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof, or cause the Mortgaged
Property or any part thereof to be sold at a sale or sales held at such place or
places and time or times and upon such notice and otherwise in such manner and
in such order as may be required by law, or, in the absence of any such
requirements, as Beneficiary may deem appropriate and from time to time adjourn
any such sale by announcement at the time and place specified for such sale or
for such adjourned sale without further notice, except such as may be required
by law;
(y) proceed
to protect and enforce Beneficiary’s rights under this Deed of Trust, by suit
for specific performance of any covenant contained herein or in the Loan
Documents or in aid of the execution of any power granted herein or in the Loan
Documents, or for the foreclosure of this Deed of Trust (as a mortgage or
otherwise) and the sale of the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof under the
judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction, or for the enforcement
of any other right as Beneficiary shall elect, provided, that in the event of a
sale, by foreclosure or otherwise, of less than all of the Mortgaged Property,
this Deed of Trust shall continue as a lien on, and security interest in, the
remaining portion of the Mortgaged Property; or
(z) exercise
any or all of the remedies available to a secured party under the UCC,
including, without limitation:
(1) either
personally or by means of a court appointed receiver, take possession of all or
any of the Security Interest Property and exclude therefrom Trustor and all
persons claiming under Trustor, and thereafter hold, store, use, operate,
manage, maintain and control, make repairs, replacements, alterations, additions
and improvements to and exercise all rights and powers of Trustor in respect of
the Security Interest Property, or any part thereof; if Beneficiary demands or
attempts to take possession of the Security Interest Property in the exercise of
any rights hereunder, Trustor shall promptly turn over and deliver complete
possession thereof to Beneficiary;
(2) without
further notice to or demand upon Trustor (except those otherwise required hereby
or by the Note), make such payments and do such acts as Trustee or Beneficiary
may deem necessary to protect its security interest in the Security Interest
Property, including, without limitation, paying, purchasing, contesting or
compromising any encumbrance that is prior to or superior to the security
interest granted hereunder, and in exercising any such powers or authority
paying all expenses incurred in connection therewith, which expenses shall
thereafter become part of the Loan Obligations secured by the lien of this Deed
of Trust;
(3) require
Trustor to assemble the Security Interest Property or any portion thereof, at a
place designated by Trustee or Beneficiary and reasonably convenient to both
parties, and promptly to deliver the Security Interest Property to Beneficiary,
or an agent or representative designated by Beneficiary, and its agents and
representatives, shall have the right to enter upon the premises and property of
Trustor to exercise Beneficiary’s rights hereunder;
8
(4) sell,
lease or otherwise dispose of the Security Interest Property, with or without
having the Security Interest Property at the place of sale, and upon such terms
and in such manner as Beneficiary may determine (and Beneficiary may be a
purchaser at any such sale, provided, however, that Trustee, at the request and
direction of Beneficiary, may dispose of the Security Interest Property in
accordance with Beneficiary’s rights and remedies in respect of the Mortgaged
Property pursuant to the provisions of this Deed of Trust in lieu of proceeding
under the UCC); and
(5) unless
the Security Interest Property is perishable or threatens to decline speedily in
value or is of a type customarily sold on a recognized market, Beneficiary, as
the case may be, shall give Trustor at least ten (10) days prior notice of the
time and place of any sale of the Security Interest Property or other intended
disposition thereof, which notice Trustor agrees is commercially
reasonable.
(b) If an
Event of Default shall have occurred, Beneficiary, to the maximum extent
permitted by law, shall be entitled, as a matter of right, to the appointment of
a receiver of the Mortgaged Property, without notice or demand, and without
regard to the adequacy of the security for the Loan Obligations or the solvency
of Trustor. Trustor hereby irrevocably consents to such appointment and waives
notice of any application therefor. Any such receiver or receivers shall have
all the usual powers and duties of receivers in like or similar cases and all
the powers and duties of Beneficiary in case of entry and shall continue as such
and exercise all such powers until the date of confirmation of sale of the
Mortgaged Property, unless such receivership is sooner terminated.
(c) In any
sale under any provision of this Deed of Trust or pursuant to any judgment or
decree of court, the Mortgaged Property, to the maximum extent permitted by law,
may be sold in one or more parcels or as an entirety and in such order as
Beneficiary may elect, without regard to the right of Trustor or any person
claiming under Trustor to the marshalling of assets. The purchaser at any such
sale shall take title to the Mortgaged Property or the part thereof so sold free
and discharged of the estate of Trustor therein, the purchaser being hereby
discharged from all liability to see to the application of the purchase money.
Upon the completion of any such sale by virtue of this Section 5.2(c),
Trustee or Beneficiary, as the case may be, shall execute and deliver to the
purchaser an appropriate instrument that shall effectively transfer all of
Trustor’s estate, right, title, interest, property, claim and demand in and to
the Mortgaged Property or portion thereof so sold, but without any covenant or
warranty, express or implied. Trustor shall ratify and confirm, or cause to be
ratified and confirmed, any such sale or sales by executing and delivering, or
by causing to be executed and delivered to Beneficiary or to such purchaser or
purchasers all such instruments as may be advisable, in the reasonable judgment
of Beneficiary, for such purpose, and as may be designated in such request. Any
sale or sales made under or by virtue of this Deed of Trust, to the extent not
prohibited by law, shall operate to divest all the estate, right, title,
interest, property, claim and demand whatsoever, whether at law or in equity, of
Trustor in, to and under the Mortgaged Property, or any portions thereof so
sold, and shall be a perpetual bar both at law and in equity against Trustor and
against any and all persons claiming or who may claim the same, or any part
thereof, by, through or under Trustor. The powers and agency herein granted are
coupled with an interest and are irrevocable.
9
(d) All
rights of action under any Loan Document may be enforced by Trustee or
Beneficiary without the possession of the original Loan Documents and without
the production thereof at any trial or other proceeding relative
thereto.
Section
5.3. Application of
Proceeds.
(a) All
proceeds of any repayment of or recoveries on the Loan shall be applied to repay
the Debt in such order and in such manner as Beneficiary shall elect in
Beneficiary’s discretion.
(b) No sale
or other disposition of all or any part of the Mortgaged Property pursuant to
this Section
5.3 shall be deemed to relieve Trustor of its obligations under any Loan
Document except to the extent the proceeds thereof are applied to the payment of
such obligations. If the proceeds of sale, collection or other realization of or
upon the Mortgaged Property are insufficient to cover the costs and expenses of
such realization and the payment in full of the Loan Obligations, Trustor shall
remain liable for any deficiency subject to Section
7.11.
(c) Upon any
sale made under the powers of sale herein granted and conferred, the receipt
given by Beneficiary (or Trustee) will be sufficient discharge to the purchaser
or purchasers at any sale for the purchase money, and such purchaser or
purchasers and their heirs, devisees, personal representatives, successors and
assigns thereof will not, after paying such purchase money and receiving such
receipt of Beneficiary, be obligated to see to the application thereof or be in
any way answerable for any loss, misapplication or non-application
thereof.
Section
5.4. Powers of
Beneficiary. Beneficiary may at any time or from time to time renew or
extend (and direct Trustee to renew or extend) this Deed of Trust or (with the
agreement of Trustor) alter or modify the same in any way, or waive any of the
terms, covenants or conditions hereof or thereof, in whole or in part, and may
release or reconvey, or cause Trustee to release or reconvey, any portion of the
Mortgaged Property or any other security, and grant such extensions and
indulgences in relation to the Loan Obligations, or release any person liable
therefor as Beneficiary may determine without the consent of any junior lienor
or encumbrancer, without any obligation to give notice of any kind thereto,
without in any manner affecting the priority of the lien and estate of this Deed
of Trust on or in any part of the Mortgaged Property, and without affecting the
liability of any other person liable for any of the Loan
Obligations.
Section
5.5. Right to
Xxx. Trustee and Beneficiary shall each have the right from time to time
to xxx for any sums required to be paid by Trustor under the terms of this Deed
of Trust as the same become due, without regard to whether or not the entire

right of Beneficiary thereafter to bring any action or proceeding of foreclosure
or any other action upon the occurrence of any Event of Default existing at the
time such earlier action was commenced.
Section
5.6. Remedies
Cumulative.
(a) No
right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to Trustee or Beneficiary is
intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and each and every right
and remedy shall
10
be
cumulative and in addition to any other right or remedy under this Deed of
Trust, or under applicable law, whether now or hereafter existing; the failure
of Trustee or Beneficiary to insist at any time upon the strict observance or
performance of any of the provisions of this Deed of Trust or to exercise any
right or remedy provided for herein or under applicable law, shall not impair
any such right or remedy nor be construed as a waiver or relinquishment
thereof.
(b) To
the maximum extent permitted by law, Trustee and Beneficiary shall each be
entitled to enforce payment and performance of any of the obligations of Trustor
and to exercise all rights and powers under this Deed of Trust or under any Loan
Document or any laws now or hereafter in force, notwithstanding that some or all
of the Loan Obligations may now or hereafter be otherwise secured, whether by
mortgage, deed of trust, pledge, lien, assignment or otherwise; neither the
acceptance of this Deed of Trust nor its enforcement, whether by court action or
pursuant to the power of sale or other powers herein contained, shall prejudice
or in any manner affect the right of either Trustee or Beneficiary to realize
upon or enforce any other security now or hereafter held by Trustee or
Beneficiary, it being stipulated that Trustee and Beneficiary shall be entitled
to enforce this Deed of Trust and any other security now or hereafter held by
Trustee or Beneficiary in such order and manner as Beneficiary, in its
discretion, may determine; every power or remedy given by any Loan Documents to
Trustee or Beneficiary, or to which Trustee or Beneficiary is otherwise
entitled, may be exercised, concurrently or independently, from time to time and
as often as may be deemed expedient by Beneficiary, and Trustee or Beneficiary
may pursue inconsistent remedies.
Section
5.7. Waiver of Stay,
Extension, Moratorium Laws; Equity of Redemption. To the maximum extent
permitted by law, Trustor shall not at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any
manner whatsoever claim or take any benefit or advantage of any applicable
present or future stay, extension or moratorium law, that may affect observance
or performance of the provisions of this Deed of Trust; nor claim, take or
insist upon any benefit or advantage of any present or future law providing for
the valuation or appraisal of the Mortgaged Property or any portion thereof
prior to any sale or sales thereof that may be made under or by virtue of Section 5.2; and
Trustor, to the maximum extent permitted by law, hereby waives all benefit or
advantage of any such law or laws. Trustor, for itself and all who may claim
under it, hereby waives, to the maximum extent permitted by law, any and all
rights and equities of redemption from sale under the power of sale created
hereunder or from sale under any foreclosure of this Deed of Trust and (if an
Event of Default shall have occurred) all notice or notices of seizure, and all
right to have the Mortgaged Property marshalled upon any foreclosure hereof.
Neither Trustee nor Beneficiary shall be obligated to pursue or exhaust their
rights or remedies as against any other part of the Mortgaged Property, and
Trustor hereby waives any right or claim of right to have Trustee or Beneficiary
proceed in any particular order.
Section
5.8. Waiver of
Homestead. Trustor 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 Mortgaged Property as against the
collection of the Loan Obligations, or any part thereof.
Section
5.9. No Assumption by
Beneficiary. Except as otherwise expressly set forth in any Loan
Document, Beneficiary will not be deemed in any manner to have assumed any
liabilities or obligations relating to the Mortgaged Property or any portion
thereof. Trustor
11
agrees
that the exercise by Beneficiary of one or more of its rights and remedies under
this Deed of Trust shall in no way be deemed or construed to make Beneficiary a
mortgagee-in-possession.
Section
5.10. Discontinuance
of Proceedings. If either Trustee or Beneficiary shall have proceeded to
enforce any right, power or remedy under this Deed of Trust by foreclosure,
power of sale, entry or otherwise, and such proceedings shall have been
discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or shall have been determined
adversely to Beneficiary, then in every such case, Trustor, Trustee and
Beneficiary shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder,
and all rights, powers and remedies of Trustee and Beneficiary shall continue as
if no such proceedings had occurred.

under any of the other Loan Documents or at law or in equity. Trustor shall pay
all such reasonable fees and expenses incurred by Trustee and Trustee’s agents
and counsel in connection with the foregoing and all such costs, fees and
expenses shall be secured by this Deed of Trust.
Section
6.3. Full Reconveyance
by Trustee. To the extent Trustee’s signature is necessary on any full
reconveyance of this Deed of Trust then, upon written request of Beneficiary
stating that all sums secured hereby have been paid and upon surrender of this
Deed of Trust and the Note to Trustee for cancellation and retention (or
disposal in accordance with applicable law) and upon payment by Trustor of
Trustee’s fees, Trustee shall reconvey to Trustor, or to the person or persons
legally entitled thereto, without warranty, any portion of the Mortgaged

Trustor shall indemnify Trustee against all claims, actions, liabilities,
judgments, costs, attorneys’ fees or other charges of whatsoever kind or nature

Section
6.5. Successor
Trustee. Trustee may resign in writing addressed to Beneficiary or be

the Land is situated. In case of the death, resignation or removal of Trustee, a
successor Trustee may be appointed by Beneficiary without other formality than
an appointment and designation in writing unless otherwise required by
applicable law. Such appointment and designation will be full evidence of the
right and authority to make the same and of all facts therein recited, and upon
the making of any such appointment and designation, this Deed of Trust will vest
in the named successor trustee all the right, title and interest of Trustee in
the Mortgaged Property, and said successor will thereupon succeed to all the
rights, powers, privileges, immunities and duties hereby conferred upon Trustee;
provided, however, that Beneficiary may at its option, appoint and designate
several successor trustees, and in such manner, appoint and designate a
different successor trustee for each county wherein a portion of the Mortgaged
Property is located, as described in such written appointment and designation,
and upon the making of any such appointment and designation, this Deed of Trust
will vest in each such named successor trustee all of the right, title and
interest of Trustee in that portion of the Mortgaged Property ascribed to such
named successor trustee, and each such named successor trustee will thereupon
succeed to all the rights, powers, privileges, immunities and duties hereby
conferred upon Trustee in that portion of the Mortgaged Property ascribed to
such named successor trustee. All references herein to Trustee will be deemed to
refer to the trustee or trustees from time to time acting
hereunder.
