ARTICLE III. ASSIGNMENT OF LEASES AND RENTS

3.1 Representations, Warranties and Covenants. Borrower represents, warrants and covenants that: (a) it has provided a list of all Leases, if any, to Beneficiary as of the date of this Deed of Trust, (b) as of the date of this Deed of Trust, Borrower is not, in the capacity of lessor, a party to any other lease, whether written or oral, or any agreement for the use and occupancy of the Subject Property, except as disclosed in writing to Beneficiary prior to the date of this Deed of Trust, (c) the Leases are valid, binding and in full force and effect and have not been amended or modified, except as disclosed in writing to Beneficiary prior to the date of this Deed of Trust, (d) Borrower is the sole owner of the lessor’s interest in the Leases, (e) except for any Permitted Liens, Borrower has not executed any other assignment or pledge of any of the Leases or Rents or performed any other act or executed any other instrument which might prejudice Beneficiary’s rights hereunder, (f) to the best of Borrower’s knowledge, no material default exists on the part of any lessee, or on the part of Borrower, as lessor, in the performance of the terms, covenants, provisions, conditions or agreements contained in the Leases, (g) Borrower knows of no condition which, with the giving of notice or the passage of time or both, would constitute a material default under any of the Leases on the part of any lessee or Borrower, as lessor, except as disclosed in writing to Beneficiary prior to the date of this Deed of Trust, (h) no rent has been paid by any lessee for more than one installment in advance and (i) the payment of none of the Rents to accrue under the Leases has been or will be waived, released, reduced, discounted or otherwise discharged or compromised by Borrower, except as disclosed in writing to Beneficiary prior to the date of this Deed of Trust.

3.2 Assignment. For the purposes and upon the terms and conditions set forth herein, Borrower irrevocably assigns to Beneficiary all of Borrower’s right, title and interest in, to and under the Leases, together with any and all Rents. This assignment shall not impose upon Beneficiary any duty to produce Rents from the Subject Property, nor cause Beneficiary to be: (a) a “mortgagee in possession” for any purpose; (b) responsible for performing any of the obligations of the lessor or landlord under any Lease; or (c) responsible for any waste committed by any person or entity at any time in possession of the Subject Property or any part thereof, or for any dangerous or defective condition of the Subject Property, or for any negligence in the management, upkeep, repair or control of the Subject Property. This is an absolute assignment, not an assignment for security only, and Beneficiary’s right to Rents is not contingent upon and may be exercised without taking possession of the Subject Property. Borrower agrees to execute and deliver to Beneficiary, within five (5) days of Beneficiary’s written request, such additional documents as Beneficiary or Trustee may reasonably request to further evidence the assignment to Beneficiary of any and all Leases and Rents. Beneficiary or Trustee, at Beneficiary’s option and without notice, may notify any lessee or tenant of this assignment of the Leases and Rents.

3.3 License. Beneficiary confers upon Borrower a license (the “License”) to collect and retain the Rents as, but not before, they come due and payable, until the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, the License shall be automatically revoked, and Beneficiary or Trustee may, at Beneficiary’s option and without notice, either in person or by agent, with or without bringing any action, or by a receiver to be appointed by a court: (a) enter, take possession of, manage and operate the Subject Property or any part thereof; (b) make, cancel, enforce or modify any Lease; (c) obtain and evict tenants, fix or modify Rents, and do any acts which Beneficiary or Trustee deems proper to protect the security hereof; and (d) either with or without taking possession of the Subject Property, in its own name, xxx for or otherwise collect and receive all Rents, including those past due and unpaid, and apply the same in accordance with the provisions of this Deed of Trust. The entering and taking possession of the Subject Property, the collection of Rents and the application thereof as aforesaid, shall not cure or waive any Default or Event of Default, nor waive, modify or affect any notice of default hereunder, nor invalidate any act done pursuant to any such notice. Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs the lessees under the Leases to rely upon and comply with any notice or demand by Beneficiary for the payment to Beneficiary of any Rent or other sums which may at any time become due under the Leases, or for the performance of any of the lessees’ undertakings under the Leases, and the lessees shall have no right or duty to inquire as to whether any Default or Event of Default has actually occurred or is then existing hereunder. Borrower hereby relieves the lessees from any liability to Borrower by reason of relying upon and complying with any such notice or demand by Beneficiary.

3.4 Effect of Assignment. The foregoing assignment shall not cause Beneficiary to be: (a) a mortgagee in possession; (b) responsible or liable for the control, care, management or repair of the Subject Property or for performing any of the terms, agreements, undertakings, obligations, representations, warranties, covenants and conditions of the Leases; or (c) responsible or liable for any waste committed on the Subject Property by the lessees under any of the Leases or any other parties; for any dangerous or defective condition of the Subject Property; or for any negligence in the management, upkeep, repair or control of the Subject Property resulting in loss or injury or death to any lessee, licensee, employee, invitee or other person. Beneficiary shall not directly or indirectly be liable to Borrower or any other person as a consequence of: (i) the exercise or failure to exercise any of the rights, remedies or powers granted to Beneficiary, or any of Beneficiary’s respective employees, agents, contractors or subcontractors hereunder; or (ii) the failure or refusal of Beneficiary to perform or discharge any obligation, duty or liability of Borrower arising under the Leases.

(a) all of the Subject Property which is personal property, including without limitation;

(i) all Fixtures, including all “Equipment” owned by Borrower, as such term is defined in Section 9-102(1)(gg) of the UCC (or any other then applicable provision of the UCC), now or hereafter owned or acquired by Borrower or in which Borrower now holds or hereafter acquires any interest which, in any event, shall include, without limitation, all machinery, equipment, fixtures, gaming machines, casino chips, signage, change banks, change bins, slot machine bases, furniture, furnishings, trade fixtures, mainframe, kitchen and restaurant equipment, personal and other computers, terminals and printers and related components and accessories, all copiers, telephonic, video, electronic data-processing, data storage equipment and other equipment of any nature whatsoever, and any and all additions, substitutions and replacements of any of the foregoing, wherever located, together with all attachments, components, parts, equipment and accessories installed thereon or affixed thereto;

As to all of the above described personal property which is or which hereafter becomes a “fixture” under applicable law, this Deed of Trust constitutes a fixture filing under the Uniform Commercial Code as enacted in the State of Nevada, as amended from time to time (the “UCC”). All terms defined in the UCC shall have the respective meanings given to those terms in the UCC.

4.2 Fixture Filing. This Deed of Trust if filed with the Recorder of the County of Xxxxx, State of Nevada constitutes a financing statement filed as a fixture filing with respect to any and all fixtures comprising Collateral. The “debtor” is Aliante Gaming, LLC, the “secured party” is Xxxxx Fargo Bank, National Association, as Administrative Agent, the collateral is as described in Subsection 4.1 above and in the granting clause of this Deed of Trust, and the addresses of the debtor and secured party are the addresses stated in Section 7.10 of this Deed of Trust for Notices to such parties. The owner of record of the Real Property is Aliante Gaming, LLC, a Nevada limited liability company.

4.3 Representations and Warranties. Borrower hereby represents and warrants to the Beneficiary that:

(a) Borrower is the sole legal and equitable owner of each item of the Collateral in which it purports to grant a security interest hereunder, having good and merchantable title or rights thereto free and clear of any and all Liens, except for the Permitted Liens.

(b) No effective mortgage, financing statement, equivalent security or lien instrument or continuation statement covering all or any part of the Collateral exists, except the Permitted Liens. The liens created in the Collateral hereunder are first priority perfected liens, subject only to Permitted Liens.

(c) This Deed of Trust creates a legal and valid security interest on and in all of the Collateral in which Borrower now has rights and, to the extent such security interest can be perfected by filing, all filings necessary or desirable to perfect and protect such security interest have been duly made. Accordingly, the Beneficiary has a fully perfected first priority security interest in all of the Collateral in which Borrower now has rights and which can be perfected by filing, subject only to the Permitted Liens. Except as noted in the first sentence, to the extent such security interest can be perfected by filing, this Deed of Trust and such other required filings will create a legal and valid and fully perfected first priority security interest in the Collateral in which Borrower later acquires rights, when Borrower acquires those rights, subject only to the Permitted Liens.

(d) Borrower’s exact legal name is set forth on the first page of this Deed of Trust. Borrower was formed under the laws of the State of Nevada. Borrower’s chief executive office, principal place of business, and the place where Borrower maintains records concerning the Collateral are the address provided for in Section 7.10. The tangible Collateral is presently located in North Las Vegas, Nevada. Borrower shall not change such chief executive office or principal place of business or remove or cause to be removed, except in the ordinary course of Borrower’s business, the Collateral or the records concerning the Collateral from those premises without prior written notice to the Beneficiary. All of Borrower’s organizational documents or agreements delivered to Beneficiary are complete and accurate in every respect.

(e) No authorization, approval or other action by, and no notice to or filing with, any governmental authority or any other Person is required for the exercise by the Beneficiary of the rights provided for in this Deed of Trust, except in connection with a disposition of the investment property as may be required by governmental rules affecting the offering and sale of securities generally and except for the Gaming Laws.

4.4 Further Assurances. Borrower agrees: (a) to execute and deliver such documents as Beneficiary deems necessary to create, perfect and continue the security interests contemplated hereby to the extent the same may be perfected by filing; (b) to cooperate with Beneficiary in perfecting all security interests granted herein and in obtaining such agreements from third parties as Beneficiary deems necessary, proper or convenient in connection with the preservation, perfection or enforcement of any of its rights hereunder (including, without limitation, control agreements with respect to accounts not at Xxxxx Fargo Bank, National Association, or its affiliates); and (c) that Beneficiary is authorized to file financing statements in the name of Borrower to perfect Beneficiary’s security interest in Collateral (including financing statements that include an “all assets,” “all personal property,” or similar collateral description). Borrower shall promptly notify Beneficiary in writing after the filing of any application for a patent, trademark or copyright or the issuance of any patent or registration of any trademark or copyright or otherwise obtaining any interest in any patent, trademark or copyright. If requested by the Beneficiary, Borrower shall execute such additional documentation to be filed in the United States Copyright Office or the United States Patent and Trademark Office as the Beneficiary may reasonably require from time to time.

4.5 Further Identification of Collateral; Continuous Perfection. Borrower shall, if so requested by the Beneficiary, furnish to the Beneficiary, as often as the Beneficiary shall reasonably request, statements and schedules further identifying and describing the Collateral and such other reports in connection with the Collateral as the Beneficiary may reasonably request, all in reasonable detail. Borrower shall not change its name, jurisdiction of origination, identity or corporate structure in any manner unless Borrower shall have given the Beneficiary at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice thereof and shall have taken all action (or made arrangements to take such action substantially simultaneously with such change if it is impossible to take such action in advance) necessary or reasonably requested by the Beneficiary to amend such financing statement or continuation statement so that it is not seriously misleading. Borrower acknowledges that it is not authorized to file any amendment or termination statement with respect to any financing statement relating to any security interest granted hereunder without the prior written consent of the Beneficiary and agrees that it will not do so without the prior written consent of the Beneficiary, subject to Borrower’s rights under Section 9-509(3)(b) of the UCC.

4.6 Rights of Beneficiary. In addition to Beneficiary’s rights as a “Secured Party” under the UCC, Beneficiary may, but shall not be obligated to, at any time without notice and at the expense of Borrower: (a) give notice to any person of Beneficiary’s rights hereunder and enforce such rights at law or in equity; (b) insure, protect, defend and preserve the Collateral or any rights or interests of Beneficiary therein; and (c) endorse, collect and receive any right to payment of money owing to Borrower under or from the Collateral. Beneficiary may inspect the Collateral as provided in Section 5.10(c) of the Credit Agreement.

(c) In disposing of Collateral hereunder, Beneficiary may disclaim all warranties of title, possession, quiet enjoyment and the like. Any proceeds of any disposition of any Collateral may be applied by Beneficiary to the payment of expenses incurred by Beneficiary in connection with the foregoing including attorneys’ fees, and the balance of such proceeds may be applied by Beneficiary toward the payment of the Security Obligations in such order as provided in the Credit Agreement.

(d) Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, Beneficiary shall not be deemed to have accepted any property other than cash in satisfaction of any obligation of Borrower to Beneficiary unless Borrower shall make an express written election of said remedy under Section 9-620 of the UCC, or other applicable law. Borrower agrees that Beneficiary shall have no obligation to process or prepare any Collateral for sale or other disposition.

4.8 Power of Attorney. Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints Beneficiary as Borrower’s attorney-in-fact (such agency being coupled with an interest), and as such attorney-in-fact Beneficiary may, without the obligation to do so, in Beneficiary’s name, or in the name of Borrower, prepare, execute and file or record financing statements, continuation statements, applications for registration and like papers necessary to create, perfect or preserve any of Beneficiary’s security interests and rights in or to any of the Collateral, and, upon an Event of Default hereunder, take any other action required of Borrower; provided, however, that Beneficiary as such attorney-in-fact shall be accountable only for such funds as are actually received by Beneficiary.

4.9 Possession and Use of Collateral. Except as otherwise provided in this Section or the other Credit Documents, so long as no Event of Default exists under this Deed of Trust and no Default or Event of Default exists under any of the Credit Documents, Borrower may possess, use, move, transfer or dispose of any of the Collateral in the ordinary course of Borrower’s business and in accordance with the Credit Agreement.

5.7 Maintenance and Preservation of the Subject Property. Subject to the provisions of the Credit Agreement, Borrower covenants: (a) to insure the Subject Property and Collateral against such risks as Beneficiary may require and, at Beneficiary’s request, to provide evidence of such insurance to Beneficiary, and to comply with the requirements of any insurance companies insuring the Subject Property and Collateral, all in accordance with Sections 4.01(u) and 5.01(d) of the Credit Agreement (or any other applicable Section of the Credit Agreement); (b) to keep the Subject Property in good condition and repair; (c) not to remove or demolish the Subject Property or Collateral or any part thereof, not to alter, restore or add to the Subject Property or Collateral and not to initiate or acquiesce in any change in any zoning or other land classification which affects the Subject Property or Collateral without Beneficiary’s prior written consent, or as provided in the Credit Agreement; (d) to complete or restore promptly and in good and workmanlike manner the Subject Property and Collateral, or any part thereof which may be damaged or destroyed, without regard to whether Beneficiary elects to require that insurance proceeds be used to reduce the Security Obligations as provided in Section 5.6 of this Deed of Trust; (e) to comply with all laws, ordinances, regulations and standards; (e) to comply with all Applicable Laws as provided in Section 5.01(h) of the Credit Agreement; (f) to comply with all covenants, conditions, restrictions and equitable servitudes, whether public or private, of every kind and character which affect the Subject Property or Collateral and pertain to acts committed or conditions existing thereon, including, without limitation, any work, alteration, improvement or demolition mandated by such laws, covenants or requirements; (g) not to commit or permit waste of the Subject Property or Collateral; (h) not to permit any material structural alteration of the Subject Property, without Beneficiary’s consent; and (i) to do all other acts which from the character or use of the Subject Property and Collateral may be reasonably necessary to maintain and preserve its value.

5.10 Releases, Extensions, Modifications and Additional Security. Without notice to or the consent, approval or agreement of any persons or entities having any interest at any time in the Subject Property and Collateral or in any manner obligated under the Security Obligations (“Interested Parties”), Trustee may, upon Beneficiary’s written request, from time to time, release or reconvey any person or entity from liability for the payment or performance of any Security Obligation, take any action or make any agreement extending the maturity or otherwise altering the terms or increasing the amount of any Security Obligation, or accept additional security or release all or a portion of the Subject Property and other security for the Security Obligations. None of the foregoing actions shall release or reduce the personal liability of any of said Interested Parties, or release or impair the priority of the lien and security interests created by this Deed of Trust upon the Subject Property and the Collateral.

5.11 Subrogation. Beneficiary shall be subrogated to the lien of all encumbrances, whether released of record or not, paid in whole or in part by Beneficiary pursuant to this Deed of Trust or any other Credit Document or by the proceeds of any loan secured by this Deed of Trust.

5.12 Right of Inspection. Beneficiary, its agents and employees, may enter the Subject Property at any reasonable time for the purpose of inspecting the Subject Property and ascertaining Borrower’s compliance with the terms hereof.

Borrower agrees to perform all obligations and agreements with respect to said Easement and shall not take any action or omit to take any action, which would effect or permit the termination thereof. Upon receipt of notice, or otherwise becoming aware, of any default or purported default under any Easement, by any party thereto, Borrower shall promptly notify Beneficiary in writing of such default or purported default and shall deliver to Beneficiary copies of all notices, demands, complaints or other communications received or given by Borrower with respect to any such default or purported default.

5.14 Performance by Beneficiary. Should Borrower fail to make any payment or perform any act which it is obligated to make or perform hereunder or under the Credit Agreement, then the Beneficiary, at the election of either of them, without giving notice to Borrower, or any successor in interest of Borrower, and without releasing Borrower from any obligation hereunder, may make such payment or perform such act and incur any liability, or expend whatever amounts, in its discretion, it may deem necessary therefor. All sums incurred or expended by the Beneficiary, under the terms of this Section, shall become due and payable by Borrower to the Beneficiary on demand and shall bear interest until paid at an annual percentage rate equal to the Default Rate expressed in the Credit Agreement. In no event shall such payment or performance of any such act by Beneficiary be construed as a waiver of the default occasioned by Borrower’s failure to make such payment(s) or perform such act(s).

5.15 Right of Beneficiary to Appear. If there be commenced or pending any suit or action affecting the Subject Property or the Collateral, or any part thereof, or the title thereto, or if any adverse claim for or against the Subject Property or the Collateral, or any part thereof, be made or asserted, the Beneficiary (unless such suit, action or claim is being contested in good faith by Borrower and Borrower shall have established and maintained adequate reserves in accordance with GAAP for the full payment and satisfaction of such suit or action if determined adversely to Borrower), may appear or intervene in the suit or action and retain counsel therein and defend same, or otherwise take such action therein as they may be advised, and may settle or compromise same or the adverse claim; and in that behalf and for any of the purposes may pay and expend such sums of money as the Beneficiary may deem to be necessary and Borrower shall reimburse Beneficiary, for such sums expended, together with accrued interest thereon, at the Default Rate which is defined in the Credit Agreement.

5.16 Environmental Indemnity.

(a) Borrower agrees to indemnify, protect, defend and save harmless Beneficiary, as well as its respective, officers, employees, agents, attorneys and shareholders (individually, an “Indemnified Party” and collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”) from and against any and all losses, damages, expenses or liabilities, of any kind or nature from any investigations, suits, claims or demands, including reasonable counsel fees incurred in investigating or defending such claim, suffered by any of them and caused by, relating to, arising out of, resulting from or in any way connected with: (a) the presence in, on or under the Subject Property of any Hazardous Materials or any releases or discharges of any Hazardous Materials on, under or from the Subject Property; (b) any violation of Environmental Laws; or (c) any activity carried on or undertaken on or off the Subject Property, whether prior to or during the term of the Credit Agreement, and whether by Borrower or any predecessor in title or any employees, agents, contractors or subcontractors of Borrower or any predecessor in title, or any third persons at any time occupying or present on the Subject Property, in connection with the handling, treatment, removal, storage, decontamination, clean-up, transport or disposal of any Hazardous Materials at any time located or present on or under the Subject Property. The foregoing indemnity shall further apply to any residual contamination on or under the Subject Property, or affecting any natural resources, and to any contamination of any property or natural resources, arising in connection with the generation, use, handling, storage, transport or disposal of any such Hazardous Materials, and irrespective of whether any of such activities were or will be undertaken in accordance with applicable laws, regulations, codes and ordinances. It is provided, however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower shall not be obligated to indemnify, protect, defend or save harmless an Indemnified Party if, and to the extent that, any such loss, damage, expense or liability was caused by the gross negligence or intentional misconduct of such Indemnified Party, as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that, notwithstanding any other provision of this Deed of Trust or any of the other Credit Documents to the contrary, the obligations of Borrower under this Section shall be unlimited personal obligations of Borrower and shall survive any foreclosure under this Deed of Trust, any transfer in lieu thereof, any foreclosure of this Deed of Trust and any satisfaction of the obligations which are secured hereby. Borrower acknowledges that Beneficiary’s appraisal of the Subject Property is such that Beneficiary would not extend the Loan but for the personal liability undertaken by Borrower for the obligations under this Section. Borrower and Beneficiary agree that any obligations of Borrower under this Section which may also be obligations of Borrower under the Environmental Certificate shall be deemed to arise solely under this Section and not under the Environmental Certificate. The obligations of Borrower under this Section are separate from and in addition to the obligations to pay the indebtedness evidenced by the Note, the obligations under the Credit Agreement and the other obligations secured by, or imposed under, this Deed of Trust. The liability of Borrower under this Section 5.16 shall not be limited to or measured by the amount of the indebtedness secured hereby or the value of the Subject Property. Borrower shall be fully and personally liable for all obligations of Borrower under this Section. Borrower waives the right to assert any statute of limitations as a bar to the enforcement of this Section or to any action brought to enforce this Section 5.16. This Section 5.16 shall not affect, impair or waive any rights or remedies of Beneficiary or any obligations of Borrower with respect to Hazardous Materials created or imposed by Environmental Laws (including Beneficiary’s rights of reimbursement or contribution under Environmental Laws). The remedies under this Section 5.16 are cumulative and in addition to all remedies provided by law.

(b) In case any action shall be brought against any Indemnified Party based upon any of the above and in respect to which indemnity may be sought against Borrower, Beneficiary shall promptly notify Borrower in writing, and Borrower shall assume the defense thereof, including the employment of counsel selected by Borrower and reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party, the payment of all costs and expenses and the right to negotiate and consent to settlement upon the consent of the Indemnified Party. Upon reasonable determination made by an Indemnified Party that such counsel would have a conflict representing such Indemnified Party and Borrower, the applicable Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ, at the expense of Borrower, separate counsel in any such action and to participate in the defense thereof. Borrower shall not be liable for any settlement of any such action effected without its consent, but if settled with Borrower’s consent, or if there be a final judgment for the claimant in any such action, Borrower agrees to indemnify, defend and save harmless such Indemnified Parties from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment.

5.17 Environmental Certificate. Concurrently with the execution of the Credit Agreement, Borrower shall execute an instrument entitled “First Lien Certificate and Indemnification Regarding Hazardous Substances” (which, together with all amendments, modifications, extensions, renewals or restatements thereof, is referred to herein as the “Environmental Certificate”). The obligations of Borrower under the Environmental Certificate are not secured by this Deed of Trust.

5.18 Principal Place of Business. Borrower’s principal place of business is at 0000 Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxx, Xxxxx Xxx Xxxxx in the State of Nevada. Borrower does not do business under any trade name except as previously disclosed in writing to Beneficiary or as disclosed in the Credit Agreement. Borrower will immediately notify Beneficiary in writing of any change in its place of business or the adoption or change of any trade name or fictitious business name by it, and will upon request of Beneficiary, execute any additional financing statements or other certificates necessary to reflect any such adoption or change in trade name or fictitious business name.

5.19 Acceptance of Trust; Powers and Duties of Trustee. Trustee accepts this trust when this Deed of Trust is recorded. From time to time, upon written request of Beneficiary and, to the extent required by applicable law presentation of this Deed of Trust for endorsement, and without affecting the personal liability of any Person for payment of any indebtedness or performance of any of the Security Obligations, Beneficiary, or Trustee at Beneficiary’s direction, may, without obligation to do so or liability therefor and without notice: (a) reconvey all or any part of the Subject Property or the Collateral from the lien of this Deed of Trust; (b) consent to the making of any map or plat of the Subject Property; and (c) join in any grant of easement or declaration of covenants and restrictions with respect to the Subject Property, or any extension agreement or any agreement subordinating the lien or charge of this Deed of Trust. Trustee or Beneficiary may from time to time apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for aid and direction in the execution of the trusts and the enforcement of its rights and remedies available under this Deed of Trust, and may obtain orders or decrees directing, confirming or approving acts in the execution of said trusts and the enforcement of said rights and remedies. Trustee has no obligation to notify any party of any pending sale or any action or proceeding (including, but not limited to, actions in which Borrower, Beneficiary or Trustee shall be a party) unless held or commenced and maintained by Trustee under this Deed of Trust. Trustee shall not be obligated to perform any act required of it under this Deed of Trust unless the performance of the act is requested in writing and Trustee is reasonably indemnified against all losses, costs, liabilities and expenses in connection therewith.

5.20 Compensation; Exculpation; Indemnification.

(a) Borrower shall pay all Trustee’s fees and reimburse Trustee for all expenses in the administration of this trust, including attorneys’ fees. Borrower shall pay Beneficiary reasonable compensation for services rendered concerning this Deed of Trust, including without limitation, the providing of any statement of amounts owing under any Security Obligation. Beneficiary shall not directly or indirectly be liable to Borrower or any other Person as a consequence of: (i) the exercise of any rights, remedies or powers granted to Beneficiary in this Deed of Trust; (ii) the failure or refusal of Beneficiary to perform or discharge any obligation or liability of Borrower under this Deed of Trust or any Lease or other agreement related to the Subject Property or the Collateral; or (iii) any loss sustained by Borrower or any third party as a result of Beneficiary’s failure to lease the Subject Property after any Default or Event of Default or from any other act or omission of Beneficiary in managing the Subject Property after any Default or Event of Default unless such loss is caused by the willful misconduct or gross negligence of Beneficiary; and no such liability shall be asserted, imposed or enforced against Beneficiary, and all such liability is hereby expressly waived and released by Borrower.

(b) Borrower shall indemnify Trustee and Beneficiary against, and hold them harmless from, any and all losses, damages, liabilities, claims, causes of action, judgments, court costs, attorneys’ fees and other legal expenses, costs of evidence of title, costs of evidence of value, and other expenses which either may suffer or incur: (i) by reason of this Deed of Trust; (ii) by reason of the execution of this trust or the performance of any act required or permitted hereunder or by law; (iii) as a result of any failure of Borrower to perform Borrower’s obligations; or (iv) by reason of any alleged obligation or undertaking of Beneficiary to perform or discharge any of the representations, warranties, conditions, covenants or other obligations contained in any other document related to the Subject Property, including without limitation, the payment of any taxes, assessments, rents or other lease obligations, liens, encumbrances or other obligations of Borrower under this Deed of Trust. Borrower’s duty to indemnify Trustee and Beneficiary shall survive the payment, discharge or cancellation of the Security Obligations and the release or reconveyance, in whole or in part, of this Deed of Trust.

(c) Borrower shall pay all indebtedness arising under this Section immediately upon demand by Trustee or Beneficiary, together with interest thereon from the date such indebtedness arises at the highest rate per annum payable under any Security Obligation. Beneficiary may, at its option, add any such indebtedness to any Security Obligation.

5.21 Substitution of Trustees. From time to time, by a writing signed and acknowledged by Beneficiary and recorded in the county of Xxxxx, in which this Deed of Trust is recorded, Beneficiary may appoint another trustee to act in the place and stead of Trustee or any successor. Such writing shall set forth the recordation date and any recording or other information required by law. The recordation of such instrument of substitution shall discharge Trustee herein named and shall appoint the new trustee as the trustee hereunder with the same effect as if originally named Trustee herein. A writing recorded pursuant to the provisions of this Section shall be conclusive proof of the proper substitution of such new Trustee.

ARTICLE VI. DEFAULT PROVISIONS

6.1 Events of Default. The term “Event of Default” shall mean the existence of any Event of Default as set forth in the Credit Agreement.

6.2 Rights and Remedies. At any time after an Event of Default, Beneficiary and Trustee shall each have all rights and remedies available at law or in equity, including, without limitation, the following:

(f) To apply to a court of competent jurisdiction for and obtain appointment of a receiver of the Subject Property as a matter of strict right and without regard to: (i) the adequacy of the security for the repayment of the Security Obligations; (ii) the existence of a declaration that the Security Obligations are immediately due and payable; or (iii) the filing of a notice of default; and Borrower consents to such appointment.

(h) To execute or cause Trustee to execute a written notice of such Default and of its election to cause the Subject Property to be sold to satisfy the Security Obligations. Trustee shall give and record such notice as the law then requires as a condition precedent to a trustee’s sale.

Subject to requirements and limits imposed by law, Trustee may postpone any sale of the Subject Property by public announcement at such time and place of sale, and from time to time may postpone such sale by public announcement at the time and place fixed by the preceding postponement. Trustee shall deliver to the purchaser at such sale a deed conveying the Subject Property or portion thereof so sold, but without any covenant or warranty, express or implied. The recitals in said deed of any matters or facts shall be conclusive proof of the truthfulness thereof. Any Person, including Trustee, Borrower or Beneficiary, may purchase at such sale.

(j) Upon sale of the Subject Property at any judicial or non-judicial foreclosure, Beneficiary may credit bid (as determined by Beneficiary in its sole discretion) all or any portion of the Security Obligations. In determining such credit bid, Beneficiary may, but is not obligated to, take into account all or any of the following: (i) appraisals of the Subject Property as such appraisals may be discounted or adjusted by Beneficiary in its sole underwriting discretion; (ii) expenses and costs incurred by Beneficiary with respect to the Subject Property prior to foreclosure; (iii) expenses and costs which Beneficiary anticipates will be incurred with respect to the Subject Property after foreclosure, but prior to resale, including without limitation, costs of structural reports and other due diligence, costs to carry the Subject Property prior to resale, costs of resale (e.g., commissions, attorneys’ fees, and taxes), Hazardous Materials clean-up and monitoring, deferred maintenance, repair, refurbishment and retrofit, costs of defending or settling litigation affecting the Subject Property; (iv) declining trends in real property values generally and with respect to properties similar to the Subject Property, and lost opportunity costs (if any), including the time value of money during any anticipated holding period by Beneficiary; (v) anticipated discounts upon resale of the Subject Property as a distressed or foreclosed property; (vi) the existence of additional collateral, if any, for the Security Obligations; and (vii) such other factors or matters that Beneficiary (in its sole and absolute discretion) deems appropriate.

Every right, power and remedy granted to Beneficiary in this Deed of Trust shall be cumulative and not exclusive, and in addition to all rights, powers and remedies granted at law or in equity or by statute, and each such right, power and remedy may be exercised from time to time and as often and in such order as may be deemed expedient by Beneficiary, and the exercise of any such right, power or remedy shall not be deemed a waiver of the right to exercise, at the time or thereafter, any other right, power or remedy.

6.3 Application of Foreclosure Sale Proceeds and Other Sums. All sums received by Beneficiary under Section 3.3 or Section 6.2 of this Deed of Trust, less all costs and expenses incurred by Beneficiary or any receiver under Section 3.3 or Section 6.2 of this Deed of Trust, including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees, shall be distributed to the persons legally entitled thereto for application to the Security Obligations each in accordance with the Credit Agreement; provided, however, Beneficiary shall have no liability for funds not actually received by Beneficiary.

6.4 No Cure or Waiver. Neither Beneficiary’s nor any receiver’s entry upon and taking possession of all or any part of the Subject Property, nor any collection of rents, issues, profits, insurance proceeds, condemnation proceeds or damages, other security or proceeds of other security, or other sums, nor the application of any collected sum to any Security Obligation, nor the exercise or failure to exercise of any other right or remedy by Beneficiary or any receiver shall cure or waive any breach, Event of Default or notice of default under this Deed of Trust, or nullify the effect of any notice of default or sale (unless all Security Obligations then due have been paid and performed and Borrower has cured all other defaults), or impair the status of the security, or prejudice Beneficiary in the exercise of any right or remedy, or be construed as an affirmation by Beneficiary of any tenancy, lease or option or a subordination of the lien of this Deed of Trust.

Borrower agrees to pay to Beneficiary immediately and without demand all costs and expenses incurred by Beneficiary or Trustee pursuant to Section 6.2 of this Deed of Trust (including, without limitation, court costs and attorneys’ fees, whether incurred in litigation or not) with interest from the date of expenditure until said sums have been paid at the rate of interest then applicable to the principal balance of the Note as specified therein.

6.6 Power to File Notices and Cure Defaults. Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints Beneficiary and its successors and assigns, as its attorney-in-fact, which agency is coupled with an interest, (a) to execute and record any notices of completion, cessation of labor, or any other notices that Beneficiary deems appropriate to protect Beneficiary’s interest, (b) upon the issuance of a deed pursuant to the foreclosure of this Deed of Trust or the delivery of a deed in lieu of foreclosure, to execute all instruments of assignment or further assurance with respect to the Leases and Rents in favor of the grantee of any such deed, as may be necessary or desirable for such purpose, (c) to prepare, execute and file or record financing statements, continuation statements, applications for registration and like papers necessary to create, perfect or preserve Beneficiary’s security interests and rights in or to any of the Collateral, and (d) upon the occurrence of an event, act or omission which, with notice or passage of time or both, would constitute an Event of Default, Beneficiary may perform any obligation of Borrower hereunder; provided, however, that: (i) Beneficiary as such attorney-in-fact shall only be accountable for such funds as are actually received by Beneficiary; and (ii) Beneficiary shall not be liable to Borrower or any other person or entity for any failure to act under this Section.

6.7 Reinstatement. This Deed of Trust shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be effective should any petition be filed by or against Borrower for liquidation or reorganization, should Borrower become insolvent or make an assignment for the benefit of creditors or should a receiver or trustee be appointed for all or any significant part of Borrower’s property and assets, and shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment and performance of the Security Obligations, or any part thereof, is, pursuant to applicable law, rescinded or reduced in amount, or must otherwise be restored or returned by any obligee of the Security Obligations, whether as a “voidable preference,” “fraudulent conveyance,” or otherwise, all as though such payment or performance had not been made. In the event that any payment, or any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored or returned, the Security Obligations shall be reinstated and deemed reduced only by such amount paid and not so rescinded, reduced, restored or returned.
