ARTICLE I
COVENANTS OF GRANTOR
Grantor represents, except as known by Beneficiary or its affiliates to the
contrary, or disclosed to Beneficiary in connection with the sale of the
Mortgaged Property to Grantor, and Grantor covenants and agrees as follows:
Section 1.01. (a) Warranty of Title; Power and Authority. Grantor warrants
that, with respect to the fee interest in the Premises, it has a good and
marketable title to an indefeasible fee estate subject to no lien, charge or
encumbrance, that the Ground Lease is subject to no lien, charge or encumbrance
of any kind and is prior to all liens,
4
charges and encumbrances whatsoever on the fee interest of the landlord
thereunder, except in either case such as are listed as exceptions to title in
the title policy insuring the lien hereof; and, Grantor further warrants that,
with respect to the leasehold interest in the Premises, that it is the owner of
a valid and subsisting interest as tenant under the Ground Lease, that the
Ground Lease is in full force and effect, there are no defaults thereunder and
no event has occurred or is occurring which after notice or passage of time or
both will result in such a default; that it owns the Chattels, all leases and
the Rents in respect of the Mortgaged Property and all other personal property
encumbered hereby free and clear of liens and claims; and Grantor warrants that
this Deed is and will remain a valid and enforceable lien on the Mortgaged
Property subject only to the exceptions referred to above. Grantor has full
power and lawful authority to subject the Mortgaged Property to the lien hereof
in the manner and form herein done or intended hereafter to be done. Grantor
will preserve such title, will preserve such leasehold estate created by the
Ground Lease and will forever warrant and defend the same to Trustee and
Beneficiary and will forever warrant and defend the validity and priority of the
lien hereof against the claims of all persons and parties whomsoever. Grantor
will perform or cause to be performed all of the covenants and conditions
required to be performed by it under the Ground Lease, will do all things
necessary to preserve unimpaired its rights thereunder, and will not (i) enter
into any agreement modifying or amending the Ground Lease that would reduce the
term of the Ground Lease, increase the amount of rent payable thereunder (except
as contemplated by the provisions of the Ground Lease) or have a material
adverse effect on the lien created by this Deed or the rights of Beneficiary
hereunder or (ii) for so long as the Ground Lease is in effect, release the
landlord thereunder from any obligations imposed upon it thereby. If Grantor
receives a notice of default under the Ground Lease, it shall immediately cause
a copy of such notice to be sent by registered United States mail to
Beneficiary.
(b) Hazardous Materials. To the best of Grantor's knowledge, Grantor
represents and warrants that (i) the Premises and the improvements thereon and
the surrounding areas are not currently and have never been subject to Hazardous
Materials or their effects, in each case in amounts in violation of applicable
Environmental Laws, (ii) neither it nor any portion of the Premises or
improvements thereon is in violation of, or subject to any existing, pending or
threatened investigation or proceeding by any governmental authorities under,
any Environmental Law, (iii) there are no claims, litigation, administrative or
other proceedings, whether actual or threatened, or judgments or orders,
concerning Hazardous Materials relating in any way to the Premises or the
improvements thereon and (iv) Grantor is not required by any Environmental Law
to obtain any permits or licenses to construct or use any improvements, fixtures
or equipment with respect to the Premises, or if any such permit or license is
required it has been obtained and is capable of being mortgaged and assigned
hereby. Grantor will comply with all applicable Environmental Laws and will, at
its sole cost and expense, promptly remove, or cause the removal of, any and all
Hazardous Materials or the effects thereof at any time identified as being on,
in, under or affecting the Premises.
(c) Flood Hazard Area. Grantor represents that neither the Premises nor any
part thereof is located in an area identified by the Secretary of the United
States Department of Housing and Urban Development or by any applicable federal
agency as
5
having special flood hazards or, if it is, Grantor has obtained the insurance
required by Section 1.09.
Section 1.02. (a) Further Assurances. Grantor will, at its sole cost and
expense, do, execute, acknowledge and deliver all and every such further acts,
deeds, conveyances, mortgages, assignments, notices of assignment, transfers and
assurances as Trustee or Beneficiary shall from time to time reasonably require,
for the better assuring, conveying, assigning, transferring and confirming unto
Trustee the property and rights hereby conveyed or assigned or intended now or
hereafter so to be, or which Grantor may be or may hereafter become bound to
convey or assign to Trustee, or for carrying out the intention or facilitating
the performance of the terms hereof, or for filing, registering or recording
this Deed and, on demand, will execute and deliver, and hereby authorizes
Trustee or Beneficiary to execute and file in Grantor's name, to the extent they
may lawfully do so, one or more financing statements, chattel mortgages or
comparable security instruments, to evidence or perfect more effectively
Beneficiary's security interest in and the lien hereof upon the Chattels and
other personal property encumbered hereby.
(b) Information Reporting and Back-up Withholding. Grantor will, at its
sole cost and expense, do, execute, acknowledge and deliver all and every such
acts, information reports, returns and withholding of monies as shall be
necessary or appropriate to comply fully, or to cause full compliance, with all
applicable information reporting and back-up withholding requirements of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (including all regulations now or hereafter
promulgated thereunder) in respect of the Premises and all transactions related
to the Premises, and will at all times provide Beneficiary with satisfactory
evidence of such compliance and notify Beneficiary of the information reported
in connection with such compliance.
Section 1.03. (a) Filing and Recording of Documents. Grantor forthwith upon
the execution and delivery hereof, and thereafter from time to time, will cause
this Deed and any security instrument creating a lien or evidencing the lien
hereof upon the Chattels and each instrument of further assurance to be filed,
registered or recorded in such manner and in such places as may be required by
any present or future law in order to publish notice of and fully to protect the
lien hereof upon, and the title of Trustee to, the Mortgaged Property.
(b) Filing and Recording Fees and Other Charges. Grantor will pay all
filing, registration or recording fees, and all expenses incident to the
execution and acknowledgment hereof, any deed of trust supplemental hereto, any
security instrument with respect to the Chattels, and any instrument of further
assurance, and any reasonable expenses (including attorneys' fees and
disbursements) incurred by Beneficiary in connection with the Loan, and will pay
all federal, state, county and municipal stamp taxes and other taxes, duties,
imposts, assessments and charges arising out of or in connection with the
execution and delivery of the Note, this Deed, any deed of trust supplemental

6
Section 1.04. Payment and Performance of Loan Documents. Grantor will
punctually pay the principal and interest and all other sums to become due in
respect hereof and of the Note at the time and place and in the manner specified
therein, according to the true intent and meaning thereof, all in currency of
the United States of America which at the time of such payment shall be legal
tender for the payment of public and private debts. Grantor will duly and timely
comply with and perform all of the terms, provisions, covenants and agreements
contained in said documents and in all other documents or instruments executed
or delivered by Grantor to Beneficiary in connection with the Loan, and will
permit no failures of performance thereunder.
Section 1.05. Maintenance of Existence; Compliance with Laws. Grantor, if
other than a natural person, will, so long as it is owner of all or part of the
Mortgaged Property, do all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force
and effect its existence, franchises, rights and privileges as a business or
stock corporation, partnership, limited liability company, trust or other entity
under the laws of the state of its formation. Grantor will duly and timely
comply with all laws, regulations, rules, statutes, orders and decrees of any
governmental authority or court applicable to it or to the Mortgaged Property or
any part thereof.
Section 1.06. After-Acquired Property. All right, title and interest of
Grantor in and to all extensions, improvements, betterments, renewals,
substitutes and replacements of, and all additions and appurtenances to, the
Mortgaged Property, hereafter acquired by, or released to, Grantor or
constructed, assembled or placed by Grantor on the Premises, and all conversions
of the security constituted thereby, immediately upon such acquisition, release,
construction, assembling, placement or conversion, as the case may be, and in
each such case, without any further deed of trust, conveyance, assignment or
other act by Grantor, shall become subject to the lien hereof as fully and
completely, and with the same effect, as though now owned by Grantor and
specifically described in the Granting Clause hereof, but at any and all times
Grantor will execute and deliver to Trustee or Beneficiary any and all such
further assurances, deeds of trust, conveyances or assignments thereof as
Trustee or Beneficiary may reasonably require for the purpose of expressly and
specifically subjecting the same to the lien hereof.
Section 1.07. (a) Payment of Taxes and Other Charges. Grantor, from time to
time before the same shall become delinquent, will pay and discharge all taxes
of every kind and nature (including real and personal property taxes and income,
franchise, withholding, profits and gross receipts taxes), all general and
special assessments, levies, permits, inspection and license fees, all water and
sewer rents and charges, and all other public charges whether of a like or
different nature, imposed upon or assessed against it or the Mortgaged Property
or any part thereof or upon the revenues, rents, issues, income and profits of
the Mortgaged Property or arising in respect of the occupancy, use or possession
thereof. Grantor will, upon Beneficiary's request, deliver to Beneficiary
receipts evidencing the payment of all such taxes, assessments, levies, fees,
rents and other public charges imposed upon or assessed against it or the
Mortgaged Property or any portion thereof.
7
Beneficiary may, at its option following the occurrence of an Event of
Default, to be exercised by thirty (30) days' notice to Grantor, require the
deposit by Grantor, at the time of each payment of an installment of interest or
principal under the Note (but no less often than monthly), of an additional
amount sufficient to discharge the obligations under this clause (a) when they
become due. The determination of the amount so payable and of the fractional
part thereof to be deposited with Beneficiary, so that the aggregate of such
deposits shall be sufficient for this purpose, shall be made by Beneficiary in
its sole discretion. Such amounts shall be held by Beneficiary without interest
and applied to the payment of the obligations in respect of which such amounts
were deposited or, at Beneficiary's option, to the payment of said obligations
in such order or priority as Beneficiary shall determine, on or before the
respective dates on which the same or any of them would become delinquent. If
one (1) month prior to the due date of any of the aforementioned obligations the
amounts then on deposit therefor shall be insufficient for the payment of such
obligation in full, Grantor within ten (10) days after demand shall deposit the
amount of the deficiency with Beneficiary. Nothing herein contained shall be
deemed to affect any right or remedy of Beneficiary under any provisions hereof
or of any statute or rule of law to pay any such amount and to add the amount so
paid, together with interest at the Default Rate, to the indebtedness hereby
secured.
(b) Payment of Mechanics and Materialmen. Grantor will pay, from time to
time when the same shall become due, all lawful claims and demands of mechanics,
materialmen, laborers, and others which, if unpaid, might result in, or permit
the creation of, a lien on the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof, and in
general will do or cause to be done everything necessary so that the lien hereof
shall be fully preserved, at the cost of Grantor and without expense to Trustee
or Beneficiary, other than those liens which Beneficiary or its affiliates have
indemnified Grantor pursuant to the provisions set forth in the Agreement of
Sale, dated August 6, 1999, by and between Hampton Inns, Inc., Promus Hotels
Florida, Inc., Promus Hotels, Inc. and Apple Suites, Inc.
(c) Good Faith Contests. Nothing in this Section 1.07 shall require the
payment or discharge of any obligation imposed upon Grantor by this Section so
long as Grantor shall in good faith and at its own expense contest the same or
the validity thereof by appropriate legal proceedings which shall operate to
prevent the collection thereof or other realization thereon and the sale or
forfeiture of the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof to satisfy the same;
provided, however, that (i) during such contest Grantor shall set aside reserves
sufficient to discharge Grantor's obligation hereunder and of any additional
charge, penalty or expense arising from or incurred as a result of such contest
and (ii) if at any time payment of any obligation imposed upon Grantor by clause
(a) above shall become necessary to prevent the delivery of a tax deed or other
instrument conveying the Mortgaged Property or any portion thereof because of
non-payment, then Grantor shall pay the same in sufficient time to prevent the
delivery of such tax deed or other instrument.
Section 1.08. Taxes on Trustee or Beneficiary. Grantor will pay any taxes,
except income taxes, imposed on Trustee or Beneficiary by reason of their
ownership of the Note or this Deed, provided that Beneficiary can require
payment of the Note in full
8
within ninety (90) days if it shall be illegal for Grantor to pay any tax or if
the payment of such tax by Grantor would result in the violation of applicable
usury laws .
Section 1.09. Insurance. (a) Grantor will at all times (directly or
indirectly) provide, maintain and keep in force:
(i) policies of insurance insuring the Premises, Improvements and
Chattels against loss or damage by fire and lightning; against loss or
damage by other risks embraced by coverage of the type now known as All
Risk Replacement Cost Insurance with agreed amount endorsement, including
but not limited to riot and civil commotion, vandalism, malicious mischief
and theft; and against such other risks or hazards as Beneficiary from time
to time reasonably may designate in an amount sufficient to prevent
Beneficiary or Grantor from becoming a co-insurer under the terms of the
applicable policies, but in any event in an amount not less than 100% of
the then full replacement cost of the Improvements (exclusive of the cost
of excavations, foundations and footings below the lowest basement floor)
without deduction for physical depreciation;
(ii) policies of insurance insuring the Premises against the loss of
"rental value" of the buildings which constitute a part of the Improvements
on a "rented or vacant basis" arising out of the perils insured against
pursuant to clause (i) above in an amount equal to not less than one (1)
year's gross "rental value" of the Improvements. "Rental value" as used
herein is defined as the sum of (A) the total anticipated gross rental
income from tenant occupancy of such buildings as furnished and equipped,
(B) the amount of all charges which are the legal obligation of tenants and
which would otherwise be the obligation of Grantor and (C) the fair rental
value of any portion of such buildings which is occupied by Grantor.
Grantor hereby assigns the proceeds of such insurance to Beneficiary, to be
applied by Beneficiary in payment of the interest and principal on the
Note, insurance premiums, taxes, assessments and private impositions until
such time as the Improvements shall have been restored and placed in full
operation, at which time, provided Grantor is not then in default
hereunder, the balance of such insurance proceeds, if any, held by
Beneficiary shall be paid over to Grantor;
(iii) if all or part of the Premises are located in an area identified
by the Secretary of the United States Department of Housing and Urban
Development or by any applicable federal agency as a flood hazard area,
flood insurance in an amount at least equal to the maximum limit of
coverage available under the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968,
provided, however, that Beneficiary reserves the right to require flood
insurance in excess of said limit if such insurance is commercially
available up to the amount provided in clause (i) above;
(iv) during any period of restoration under this Section 1.09 or
Section 1.13, a policy or policies of builder's "all risk" insurance,
written on a Standard Builder's Risk Completed Value Form (100%
non-reporting), in an amount not less than the full insurable value of the
Premises against such risks (including,
9
without limitation, fire and extended coverage, collapse and earthquake
coverage to agreed limits) as Beneficiary may reasonably request, in form
and substance acceptable to Beneficiary;
(v) a policy or policies of workers' compensation insurance as
required by workers' compensation insurance laws (including employer's
liability insurance, if requested by Beneficiary) covering all employees of
Grantor;
(vi) comprehensive liability insurance on an "occurrence" basis
against claims for "personal injury" liability, including, without
limitation, bodily injury, death or property damage liability, with a limit
of not less than $15,000,000 in the event of "personal injury" to any
number of persons or of damage to property arising out of one "occurrence".
Such policies shall name Beneficiary as additional insured by an
endorsement, and shall contain cross-liability and severability of interest
clauses, all satisfactory to Beneficiary; and
(vii) such other insurance (including, but not limited to, earthquake
insurance), and in such amounts, as may from time to time be reasonably
required by Beneficiary against the same or other insurable hazards.
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, for so long as that
certain Management Agreement of even date herewith between Lessee and
Beneficiary remains in full force and effect (as the same may be amended, the
"Management Agreement"), the types and amounts of insurance required by the
Management Agreement to the extent inconsistent with those set forth above shall
govern and control Grantor's obligations in respect thereof.
(b) All policies of insurance required under this Section 1.09 shall be
issued by companies having Best's ratings and being otherwise reasonably
acceptable to Beneficiary, shall be subject to the reasonable approval of
Beneficiary as to amount, content, form and expiration date and, except for the
liability policies described in clauses (a)(v) and (vi) above, shall contain a
Non-Contributory Standard Mortgagee Clause and Lender's Loss Payable
Endorsement, or their equivalents, in favor of Beneficiary, and shall provide
that the proceeds thereof shall be payable to Beneficiary. Beneficiary shall be
furnished with the original of each policy required hereunder, which policies
shall provide that they shall not lapse, nor be modified or cancelled, without
thirty (30) days' written notice to Beneficiary. At least thirty (30) days prior
to expiration of any policy required hereunder, Grantor shall furnish
Beneficiary appropriate proof of issuance of a policy continuing in force the
insurance covered by the policy so expiring. Grantor shall furnish to
Beneficiary, promptly upon request, receipts or other satisfactory evidence of
the payment of the premiums on such insurance policies. In the event that
Grantor does not deposit with Beneficiary a new certificate or policy of
insurance with evidence of payment of premiums thereon at least thirty (30) days
prior to the expiration of any expiring policy, then Beneficiary may, but shall
not be obligated to, procure such insurance and pay the premiums therefor, and
Grantor agrees to repay to Beneficiary the premiums thereon promptly on demand,
together with interest thereon at the Default Rate.
10
(c) Grantor hereby assigns to Beneficiary all proceeds of any insurance
required to be maintained by this Section 1.09 which Grantor may be entitled to
receive for loss or damage to the Premises, Improvements or Chattels. All such
insurance proceeds shall be payable to Beneficiary, and Grantor hereby
authorizes and directs any affected insurance company to make payment thereof
directly to Beneficiary subject, however, to clause (f) below. Grantor shall
give prompt notice to Beneficiary of any casualty, whether or not of a kind
required to be insured against under the policies to be provided by Grantor
hereunder, such notice to generally describe the nature and cause of such
casualty and the extent of the damage or destruction. Grantor may settle, adjust
or compromise any claims for loss, damage or destruction, regardless of whether
or not there are insurance proceeds available or whether any such insurance
proceeds are sufficient in amount to fully compensate for such loss or damage,
subject to Beneficiary's prior consent. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
Beneficiary shall have the right to join Grantor in settling, adjusting or
compromising any loss of $100,000 or more. Grantor hereby authorizes the
application or release by Beneficiary of any insurance proceeds under any policy
of insurance, subject to the other provisions hereof. The application or release
by Beneficiary of any insurance proceeds shall not cure or waive any default or
notice of default hereunder or invalidate any act done pursuant to such notice.
(d) In the event of the foreclosure hereof or other transfer of the title
to the Mortgaged Property in extinguishment, in whole or in part, of the
indebtedness secured hereby, all right, title and interest of Grantor in and to
any insurance policy, or premiums or payments in satisfaction of claims or any
other rights thereunder then in force, shall pass to the purchaser or grantee
notwithstanding the amount of any bid at such foreclosure sale. Nothing
contained herein shall prevent the accrual of interest as provided in the Note
on any portion of the principal balance due under the Note until such time as
insurance proceeds are actually received and applied to reduce the principal
balance outstanding.
(e) Grantor shall not take out separate insurance concurrent in form or
contributing in the event of loss with that required to be maintained under this
Section 1.09 unless Beneficiary is included thereon as a named insured with loss
payable to Beneficiary under standard mortgage endorsements of the character and
to the extent above described. Grantor shall promptly notify Beneficiary
whenever any such separate insurance is taken out and shall promptly deliver to
Beneficiary the policy or policies of such insurance.
(f) Any and all monies received as payment which Grantor may be entitled to
receive for loss or damage to the Premises, Improvements or Chattels under any
insurance maintained pursuant to this Section 1.09 (other than proceeds under
the policies required by clause (a)(ii) above) shall be paid over to Beneficiary
and, at Beneficiary's option, either applied to the prepayment of the Note and
all interest and other sums accrued and unpaid in respect thereof or disbursed
from time to time to Grantor in reimbursement of its costs and expenses incurred
in the restoration of the Improvements in accordance with Beneficiary's standard
construction lending practices, terms and conditions, in either case, less
Beneficiary's reasonable expenses for collecting and, if applicable, disbursing
the insurance proceeds, or otherwise incurred in connection
11
therewith. Notwithstanding the provisions of the immediately preceding sentence,
provided no default exists hereunder, Beneficiary agrees to apply any such
proceeds received by it to the reimbursement of Grantor's costs of restoring the
Improvements. Advances of insurance proceeds shall be made to Grantor from time
to time in accordance with Beneficiary's standard construction lending
practices, terms and conditions; amounts not required for such purposes shall be
applied, at Beneficiary's option, to the prepayment of the Note and to interest
accrued and unpaid thereon in such order and proportions as Beneficiary may
elect. In no event shall Beneficiary be required to advance such proceeds to
Grantor unless Beneficiary shall have (i) received satisfactory evidence that
the funding/expiration dates of the commitment, if any, for the permanent
financing of the Improvements have been extended for such period of time as is
reasonably necessary to complete said restoration and (ii) reasonably determined
that the restoration of the Improvements can be completed by the Maturity Date
of the Note at a cost which does not exceed the amount of available insurance
proceeds or, in the event that such proceeds are reasonably determined by
Beneficiary to be inadequate, Beneficiary shall have received from Grantor a
cash deposit equal to the excess of said estimated cost of restoration over the
amount of said available proceeds. If the conditions for the advance of
insurance proceeds for restoration set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) above are
not satisfied within sixty (60) days of Beneficiary's receipt thereof or if the
actual restoration shall not have been commenced within such period, Beneficiary
shall have the option at any time thereafter to apply such insurance proceeds to
the payment of the Note and to interest accrued and unpaid thereon in such order
and proportions as Beneficiary may elect.
Section 1.10. Protective Advances by Beneficiary. If Grantor shall fail to
perform any of the covenants contained herein, Trustee or Beneficiary may make
advances to perform the same on its behalf and all sums so advanced shall be a
lien upon the Mortgaged Property and shall be secured hereby. Grantor will repay
on demand all sums so advanced on its behalf together with interest thereon at
the Default Rate. The provisions of this Section shall not prevent any default
in the observance of any covenant contained herein from constituting an Event of
Default.
Section 1.11. (a) Visitation and Inspection. Grantor will keep adequate
records and books of account in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles and will permit each of Trustee and Beneficiary, by their agents,
accountants and attorneys, to visit and inspect the Mortgaged Property and
examine its records and books of account and make copies thereof or extracts
therefrom, and to discuss its affairs, finances and accounts with the officers
or general partners, as the case may be, of Grantor, at such reasonable times as
may be requested by Trustee or Beneficiary.
(b) Financial and Other Information. Grantor will deliver to Beneficiary
with reasonable promptness such financial information with respect to Grantor or
the Premises as Beneficiary may reasonably request from time to time. All
financial statements of Grantor shall be prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles and shall be accompanied by the certificate of a
principal financial or accounting officer or general partner, as the case may
be, of Grantor, dated within five (5) days of the delivery of such statements to
Beneficiary, stating that he or she knows of no Event of Default, nor of any
event which after notice or lapse of time or both would constitute an
12
Event of Default, which has occurred and is continuing, or, if any such event or
Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, specifying the nature and
period of existence thereof and what action Grantor has taken or proposes to
take with respect thereto, and, except as otherwise specified, stating that
Grantor has fulfilled all of its obligations hereunder and otherwise in respect
of the Loan which are required to be fulfilled on or prior to the date of such
certificate.
(c) Estoppel Certificates. Grantor, within three (3) days upon request in
person or within five (5) days upon request by mail, will furnish a statement,
duly acknowledged, of the amount due whether for principal or interest on this
Deed and whether any offsets, counterclaims or defenses exist against the
indebtedness secured hereby.
Section 1.12. Maintenance of Premises and Improvements. Grantor will not
commit any waste on the Premises or make any change in the use of the Premises
which will in any way increase any ordinary fire or other hazard arising out of
construction or operation. Grantor will, or shall cause its Lessee to, at all
times, maintain the Improvements and Chattels in good operating order and
condition and will promptly make, from time to time, all repairs, renewals,
replacements, additions and improvements in connection therewith which are
needful or desirable to such end. The Improvements shall not be demolished or
substantially altered, nor shall any Chattels be removed without Beneficiary's
prior consent except where appropriate replacements free of superior title,
liens and claims are immediately made of value at least equal to the value of
the removed Chattels.
Section 1.13. Condemnation. Grantor, immediately upon obtaining knowledge
of the institution or pending institution of any proceedings for the
condemnation of the Premises or any portion thereof, will notify Trustee and
Beneficiary thereof. Trustee and Beneficiary may participate in any such
proceedings and may be represented therein by counsel of Beneficiary's
selection. Grantor from time to time will deliver to Beneficiary all instruments
requested by it to permit or facilitate such participation. In the event of such
condemnation proceedings, the award or compensation payable is hereby assigned
to and shall be paid to Beneficiary. Beneficiary shall be under no obligation to
question the amount of any such award or compensation and may accept the same in
the amount in which the same shall be paid. The proceeds of any award or
compensation so received shall, at Beneficiary's option, either be applied to
the prepayment of the Note and all interest and other sums accrued and unpaid in
respect thereof at the rate of interest provided therein regardless of the rate
of interest payable on the award by the condemning authority, or be disbursed to
Grantor from time to time for restoration of the Improvements in accordance with
Beneficiary's standard construction lending practices, terms and conditions, in
either case, less Beneficiary's reasonable expenses for collecting and, if
applicable, disbursing the award, or otherwise incurred in connection therewith.
Notwithstanding the provisions of the immediately preceding sentence, provided
no monetary or bankruptcy related default or any Event of Default exists
hereunder, Beneficiary agrees to apply any such condemnation award proceeds
received by it to the reimbursement of Grantor's costs of restoring the
Improvements. Advances of condemnation award proceeds shall be made to Grantor
from time to time in accordance
13
with Beneficiary's standard construction lending practices, terms and
conditions; amounts not required for such purposes shall be applied, at
Beneficiary's option, to the prepayment of the Note and to interest accrued and
unpaid thereon (at the rate of interest provided therein regardless of the rate
of interest payable on the award by the condemning authority) in such order and
proportions as Beneficiary may elect.
Section 1.14. Leases. (a) Grantor will not (i) execute an assignment of the
rents or any part thereof from the Premises without Beneficiary's prior consent,
(ii) except where the lessee is in default thereunder, terminate or consent to
the cancellation or surrender of any lease of the Premises or of any part
thereof, now existing or hereafter to be made, having an unexpired term of one
(1) year or more, provided, however, that any lease may be cancelled if promptly
after the cancellation or surrender thereof a new lease is entered into with a
new lessee having a credit standing at least equivalent to that of the lessee
whose lease was cancelled, on substantially the same terms as the terminated or
cancelled lease, (iii) modify any such lease so as to shorten the unexpired term
thereof or so as to decrease, waive or compromise in any manner the amount of
the rents payable thereunder or materially expand the obligations of the lessor
thereunder, (iv) accept prepayments of more than one month of any installments
of rents to become due under such leases, except prepayments in the nature of
security for the performance of the lessees thereunder, (v) modify, release or
terminate any guaranties of any such lease or (vi) in any other manner impair
the value of the Mortgaged Property or the security hereof.
(b) Grantor will not execute any lease of all or a substantial portion of
the Premises except for actual occupancy by the lessee thereunder or its
property manager, and will at all times promptly and faithfully perform, or
cause to be performed, all of the covenants, conditions and agreements contained
in all leases of the Premises or portions thereof now or hereafter existing, on
the part of the lessor thereunder to be kept and performed and will at all times
do all things reasonably necessary to compel performance by the lessee under
each lease of all obligations, covenants and agreements by such lessee to be
performed thereunder. If any of such leases provide for the giving by the lessee
of certificates with respect to the status of such leases, Grantor shall
exercise its right to request such certificates within five (5) days of any
demand therefor by Beneficiary and shall deliver copies thereof to Beneficiary
promptly upon receipt.
(c) In the event of the enforcement by Trustee or Beneficiary of the
remedies provided for hereby or by law, the lessee under each of the leases of
the Premise will, upon request of any person succeeding to the interest of
Grantor as a result of such enforcement, automatically become the lessee of said
successor in interest, without change in the terms or other provisions of such
lease, provided, however, that said successor in interest shall not be bound by
(i) any payment of rent or additional rent for more than one (1) month in
advance, except prepayments in the nature of security for the performance by
said lessee of its obligations under said lease or (ii) any amendment or
modification of the lease made without the consent of Beneficiary or such
successor in interest. Each lease shall also provide that, upon request by said
successor in interest, such lessee shall execute and deliver an instrument or
instruments confirming such attornment.
14
Section 1.15. Premises Documents. Grantor shall (a) do all things
reasonably necessary to cause the due compliance and faithful performance by the
other parties to the Premises Documents with and of all obligations and
agreements by such other parties to be complied with and performed thereunder,
except for any continuing failure of the Premises to comply with the Premises
Documents of the date of the acquisition hereof from Beneficiary or its
affiliate, and (b) deliver promptly to Beneficiary copies of any notices which
it gives or receives under any of the Premises Documents.
Section 1.16. Trust Fund; Lien Laws. Grantor will receive the advances
secured hereby and will hold the right to receive such advances as a trust fund
to be applied first for the purpose of paying the costs of improvements on the
Premises and will apply the same first to the payment of such costs before using
any part of the total of the same for any other purpose. Grantor will indemnify
and hold Trustee and Beneficiary harmless against any loss or liability, cost or
expense, including, without limitation, any judgments, attorney's fees, costs of
appeal bonds and printing costs, arising out of or relating to any proceeding
instituted by any claimant alleging a violation by Grantor of any applicable
lien law.
Section 1.17. Expenses of Trustee. Grantor shall pay all costs, fees and
expenses of Trustee, its agents and counsel in connection with the performance
of its duties hereunder.
ARTICLE II

Section 2.01. Events of Default and Certain Remedies. If one or more of the
following Events of Default shall happen, that is to say:
(a) if (i) default shall be made in the payment of any principal,
interest, fees or other sums under the Note, in any such case, when and as
the same shall become due and payable, whether at maturity or by
acceleration or as part of any payment or prepayment or otherwise, in each
case, as herein or in the Note provided, and such default shall have
continued for a period of ten (10) days or (ii) default shall be made in
the payment of any tax or other charge required by Section 1.07 to be paid

any covenant, condition or agreement in the Note, this Deed or in any other
document executed or delivered to Beneficiary in connection with the Loan,
and such default shall have continued for a period of thirty (30) days
after notice thereof shall have been given to Grantor by Beneficiary, or,
in the case of such other documents, such xxxxxxx xxxxx period, if any, as
may be provided for therein; or
15
(c) if any representation or warranty made by Grantor in Section 1.01
shall be incorrect, or if any other representation or warranty made to
Beneficiary in this Deed, or in any other document, certificate or
statement executed or delivered to Beneficiary in connection with the Loan
shall be incorrect in any material respect when made or remade; or
(d) if by order of a court of competent jurisdiction, a trustee,
receiver or liquidator of the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof, or of
Grantor shall be appointed and such order shall not be discharged or
dismissed within sixty (60) days after such appointment; or
(e) if Grantor shall file a petition in bankruptcy or for an
arrangement or for reorganization pursuant to the Federal Bankruptcy Act or
any similar federal or state law, or if, by decree of a court of competent
jurisdiction, Grantor shall be adjudicated a bankrupt, or be declared
insolvent, or shall make an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or
shall admit in writing its inability to pay its debts generally as they
become due, or shall consent to the appointment of a receiver or receivers
of all or any part of its property; or
(f) if any of the creditors of Grantor shall file a petition in
bankruptcy against Grantor or for reorganization of Grantor pursuant to the
Federal Bankruptcy Act or any similar federal or state law, and if such
petition shall not be discharged or dismissed within sixty (60) days after
the date on which such petition was filed; or
(g) if final judgment for the payment of money shall be rendered
against Grantor and Grantor shall not discharge the same or cause it to be
discharged within sixty (60) days from the entry thereof, or shall not
appeal therefrom or from the order, decree or process upon which or
pursuant to which said judgment was granted, based or entered, and secure a
stay of execution pending such appeal; or
(h) (Intentionally Omitted)
(i) if there shall occur a default which is not cured within the
applicable grace period, if any, under any mortgage, deed of trust or other
security instrument covering all or part of the Mortgaged Property
regardless of whether any such mortgage, deed of trust or other security
instrument is prior or subordinate hereto; it being further agreed by
Grantor that an Event of Default hereunder shall constitute an Event of
Default under any such mortgage, deed of trust or other security instrument
held by or for the benefit of Beneficiary; or
(j) if there shall occur a default which is not cured within the
applicable grace period, if any, under any of the Premises Documents,
except for any continuing failure of the Premises to comply with the
Premises Documents of the date of the acquisition hereof from Beneficiary
or its affiliate; or if any of the
16
Premises Documents is amended, modified, supplemented or terminated without
Beneficiary's prior consent; or
(k) if Grantor shall transfer, or agree to transfer (or suffer or
permit the transfer or agreement to transfer), in any manner, either
voluntarily or involuntarily, by operation of law or otherwise, all or any
portion of the Mortgaged Property, or any interest or rights therein
(including air or development rights) without, in any such case,
Beneficiary's prior consent. As used in this clause, "transfer" shall
include, without limitation, any sale, assignment, lease (other than to
Lessee) or conveyance except leases for occupancy subordinate hereto and to
all advances made and to be made hereunder or, in the event Grantor (or a
general partner or co-venturer thereof) is a partnership, joint venture,
limited liability company, trust or closely-held corporation, the sale,
conveyance, transfer or other disposition of more than 10%, in the
aggregate, of any class of the issued and outstanding capital stock of such
closely-held corporation or of the beneficial interest of such partnership,
venture, limited liability company or trust, or a change of any general
partner, joint venturer, member or beneficiary, as the case may be. In the
event Grantor is a limited partnership, and so long as a limited partner
has contributed to (or remains personally liable for) the present and
future partnership capital contributions required of such limited partner
by the partnership agreement, such partner may sell, convey, devise,
transfer or dispose of all or a part of his limited partnership interest to
his spouse, children, grandchildren or a family trust in which his spouse,
children or grandchildren are sole beneficiaries; or
(l) if Grantor shall encumber, or agree to encumber, in any manner,
either voluntarily or involuntarily, by operation of law or otherwise, all
or any portion of the Mortgaged Property, or any interest or rights therein
(including air or development rights) without, in any such case,
Beneficiary's prior consent. As used in this clause, "encumber" shall
include, without limitation, the placing or permitting the placing of any
mortgage, deed of trust, assignment of rents or other security device.
(Beneficiary may grant or deny its consent under this clause and the
immediately preceding clause in its sole discretion and, if consent should
be given, any such transfer or encumbrance shall be subject hereto and to
any other documents which evidence or secure the Loan, and, if a transfer,
any such transferee shall assume all of Grantor's obligations hereunder and
thereunder and agree to be bound by all provisions and perform all
obligations contained herein and therein; consent to one such transfer or
encumbrance shall not be deemed to be a waiver of the right to require
consent to future or successive transfers or encumbrances);
then and in every such case:
I. During the continuance of any such Event of Default, Beneficiary,
by notice to Grantor, may declare the entire principal of the Note then
outstanding (if not then due and payable), and all accrued and unpaid
interest and other sums in respect thereof, to be due and payable
immediately, and upon any such
17
declaration the principal of the Note and said accrued and unpaid interest
and other sums shall become and be immediately due and payable, anything
herein or in the Note (other than Section 4.08 hereof, the provisions
thereof limiting interest payable thereunder to the maximum amount
permitted by applicable law) to the contrary notwithstanding.
II. During the continuance of any such Event of Default, Trustee or
Beneficiary personally, or by their agents or attorneys, may enter into and
upon all or any part of the Premises, and each and every part thereof, and
are each hereby given a right and license and appointed Grantor's
attorney-in-fact and exclusive agent to do so, and may exclude Grantor, its
agents and servants wholly therefrom; and having and holding the same, may
use, operate, manage and control the Premises and conduct the business
thereof, either personally or by their superintendents, managers, agents,
servants, attorneys or receivers; and upon every such entry, Trustee or
Beneficiary, at the expense of the Mortgaged Property, from time to time,
either by purchase, repairs or construction, may maintain and restore the
Mortgaged Property, whereof they shall become possessed as aforesaid; and
likewise, from time to time, at the expense of the Mortgaged Property,
Trustee or Beneficiary may make all necessary or proper repairs, renewals
and replacements and such useful alterations, additions, betterments and
improvements thereto and thereon as Beneficiary may seem advisable; and in
every such case Trustee or Beneficiary shall have the right to manage and
operate the Mortgaged Property and to carry on the business thereof and
exercise all rights and powers of Grantor with respect thereto either in
the name of Grantor or otherwise as Beneficiary shall deem best; and
Trustee or Beneficiary shall be entitled to collect and receive the Rents
and every part thereof, all of which shall for all purposes constitute
property of Grantor; and in furtherance of such right Beneficiary may
collect the rents payable under all leases of the Premises directly from
the lessees thereunder upon notice to each such lessee that an Event of
Default exists hereunder accompanied by a demand on such lessee for the
payment to Beneficiary of all rents due and to become due under its lease,
and Grantor FOR THE BENEFIT OF BENEFICIARY AND EACH SUCH LESSEE hereby
covenants and agrees that the lessee shall be under no duty to question the
accuracy of Beneficiary's statement of default and shall unequivocally be
authorized to pay said rents to Beneficiary without regard to the truth of
Beneficiary's statement of default and notwithstanding notices from Grantor
disputing the existence of an Event of Default such that the payment of
rent by the lessee to Beneficiary pursuant to such a demand shall
constitute performance in full of the lessee's obligation under the lease
for the payment of rents by the lessee to Grantor; and after deducting the
expenses of conducting the business thereof and of all maintenance,
repairs, renewals, replacements, alterations, additions, betterments and
improvements and amounts necessary to pay for taxes, assessments, insurance
and prior or other proper charges upon the Mortgaged Property or any part
thereof, as well as just and reasonable compensation for the services of
Trustee and Beneficiary and for all attorneys, counsel, agents, clerks,
servants and other employees by them engaged and employed, Trustee or
Beneficiary, as the case may be, shall apply the moneys
18
arising as aforesaid, first, to the payment of the principal of the Note
and the interest thereon, when and as the same shall become payable and in
such order and proportions as Beneficiary shall elect and second, to the
payment of any other sums required to be paid by Grantor hereunder.
III. Trustee or Beneficiary, as the case may be, with or without
entry, personally or by their agents or attorneys, insofar as applicable,
may:
(1) sell the Mortgaged Property and all estate, right, title and
interest, claim and demand therein, at public auction at such time and
place, and upon such terms and conditions as Beneficiary may deem
expedient or as may be required or permitted by applicable law, having
first given such notice prior to the sale of such time, place and
terms by publication in one (1) or more newspapers published or having
a general circulation in the county or counties of the state in which
the Mortgaged Property is located as may be required or permitted by
law and by such other methods, if any, as Trustee or Beneficiary may
deem desirable or as may be required or permitted by applicable law.
In the event of any sale of all or part of the Mortgaged Property
under the terms hereof, Grantor shall pay (in addition to taxable
costs) a reasonable fee to Trustee which shall be in lieu of all other
fees and commission permitted by statute or custom to be paid,
reasonable attorneys' fees and all expenses incurred in obtaining or
continuing abstracts of title for the purpose of any such sale; or
(2) institute proceedings for the complete or partial foreclosure
hereof; or
(3) take such steps to protect and enforce their rights whether
by action, suit or proceeding in equity or at law for the specific
performance of any covenant, condition or agreement in the Note or
herein, or in aid of the execution of any power herein granted, or for
any foreclosure hereunder, or for the enforcement of any other
appropriate legal or equitable remedy or otherwise as Trustee or
Beneficiary shall elect.
IV. If Grantor shall default hereunder, Grantor hereby authorizes and
empowers Trustee, at the request of Beneficiary (which request shall be
presumed made), at any time during the continuance of any default, to sell
all or any portion of the Mortgaged Property, at public auction, to the
highest bidder, for cash, in the area at the County Courthouse of the
county in Texas in which the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof is
situated which has been designated by the commissioner's court of such
county as the area where such sales are to take place (as such designation
is recorded in the real property records of such county) or, if no such
area has been designated by the commissioner's court of such county, in the
area at such County Courthouse which has been designated in the notice of
sale, between the hours of 10:00 o'clock A.M. and 4:00 o'clock P.M. on the
first Tuesday of any month, after giving notice of the time, place and
terms of said
19
sale, and of the property to be sold as follows or in any other manner now
or hereafter required or permitted by applicable law:
Notice of such proposed sale shall be given by posting written notice
thereof at least twenty-one (21) days preceding the date of the sale
at the Courthouse door of the county in which the sale is to be made,
and by filing a copy of the notice in the office of the county clerk
of the county in which the sale is to be made at least twenty-one (21)
days preceding the date of the sale, and if the property to be sold is
situated in more than one county, one notice shall be posted at the
Courthouse door of each county in which the property to be sold is
situated and one copy of the notice shall be filed in the office of
the county clerk in each county in which the property to be sold is
situated (such notice shall designate the county where such property
will be sold). In addition, Beneficiary shall, at least twenty-one
(21) days preceding the date of sale, serve written notice of the
proposed sale by certified mail on each debtor obligated to pay the
Indebtedness secured hereby according to the records of Beneficiary.
Service of such notice shall be completed upon deposit of the notice,
enclosed in a postpaid wrapper, properly addressed to such debtor at
the most recent address as shown by the records of Beneficiary, in a
post office or official depository under the care and custody of the
United States Postal Service. The affidavit of any person having
knowledge of the facts to the effect that such service was completed
shall be prima facie evidence of the fact of service.
Any sale of the Mortgaged Property covered by this Deed may be conducted in the
manner provided in this Deed without the necessity for Trustee to have physical
or constructive possession of the Mortgaged Property (Grantor hereby covenanting
and agreeing to deliver to Trustee any portion of the Mortgaged Property not
actually or constructively possessed by Trustee immediately upon demand by
Trustee) and the title to and right of possession of that property will pass to
the purchaser as completely as if it had been actually present and delivered to
purchaser at the sale.
Any notice that is required or permitted to be given to Grantor may be
addressed to Grantor at Grantor's address as stated above. Any notice that is to
be given by certified mail to any other debtor may, if the address for such
other debtor is not shown by the records of Beneficiary, be addressed to such
other debtor at the address of Grantor as is shown by the records of
Beneficiary. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this paragraph, notice
of such sale given in accordance with the requirements of the applicable law of
the State of Texas in effect at the time of such sale shall constitute
sufficient notice of such sale. Grantor hereby authorizes and empowers Trustee
to sell all or any portion of the Mortgaged Property, together or in lots or
parcels, as Trustee may deem expedient, and to execute and deliver to the
purchaser or purchasers of such property, good and sufficient deeds of
conveyance of fee simple title with covenants of general warranty made on behalf
of Grantor. In no event shall Trustee be required to exhibit, present or display
at any such sale, any of the personalty described herein to be sold at such
sale. Payment of the purchase price to Trustee shall satisfy the obligation of
20
the purchaser at such sale therefor, and such purchaser shall not be bound to
look after the application thereof. The sale or sales by Trustee of less than
the whole of the Mortgaged Property shall not exhaust the power of sale herein
granted, and Trustee is specifically empowered to make successive sale or sales
under such power until the whole of the Mortgaged Property shall be sold; and if
the proceeds of such sale or sales of less than the whole of such Mortgaged
Property shall be less than the aggregate of the Indebtedness secured hereby and
the expense of executing this trust, this Deed and the lien, security interest
and assignment hereof shall remain in full force and effect as to the unsold
portion of the Mortgaged Property just as though no sale or sales had been made;
provided, however, that Grantor shall never have any right to require the sale
or sales of less than the whole of the Mortgaged Property, but Beneficiary shall
have the right, at its sole election, to request Trustee to sell less than the
whole of the Mortgaged Property. If default is made hereunder, the holder of the
Indebtedness or any part thereof on which the payment is delinquent shall have
the option to proceed with foreclosure in satisfaction of such item either
through judicial proceedings or by directing Trustee to proceed as if under a
full foreclosure, conducting the sale as herein provided without declaring the
entire Indebtedness secured hereby due, and if sale is made because of default
of an installment, or a part of an installment, such sale may be made subject to
the unmatured part of the Note and other Indebtedness secured by this Deed; and
it is agreed that such sale, if so made, shall not in any manner affect the
unmatured part of the Indebtedness secured by this Deed, but as to such
unmatured part, this Deed shall remain in full force and effect as though no
sale had been made under the provisions of this paragraph. Several sales may be
made hereunder without exhausting the right of sale for any unmatured part of
the Indebtedness secured hereby. The provisions of this paragraph IV shall
control all other conflicting provisions of this deed with respect to the sale
of the Mortgaged Property pursuant to this Deed.
Section 2.02. Other Matters Concerning Sales. (a) Trustee or Beneficiary
may adjourn from time to time any sale by it to be made hereunder or by virtue
hereof by announcement at the time and place appointed for such sale or for such
adjourned sale or sales; and, except as otherwise provided by any applicable
provision of law, Trustee or Beneficiary, as the case may be, without further
notice or publication, may make such sale at the time and place to which the
same shall be so adjourned.
(b) Upon the completion of any sale or sales made by Trustee or
Beneficiary, as the case may be, under or by virtue of this Article II, Trustee,
or an officer of any court empowered to do so, shall execute and deliver to the
accepted purchaser or purchasers a good and sufficient instrument or instruments
conveying, assigning and transferring all estate, right, title and interest in
and to the property and rights sold. Trustee is hereby appointed the true and
lawful attorney irrevocable of Grantor, in its name and stead, to make all
necessary conveyances, assignments, transfers and deliveries of the Mortgaged
Property and rights so sold and for that purpose Trustee may execute all
necessary instruments of conveyance, assignment and transfer, and may substitute
one or more persons with like power, Grantor hereby ratifying and confirming all
that its said attorney or such substitute or substitutes shall lawfully do by
virtue hereof. Nevertheless, Grantor, if requested by Trustee or Beneficiary,
shall ratify and confirm any such sale or sales by executing and delivering to
Trustee or to such purchaser or purchasers all such
21
instruments as may be advisable, in the judgment of Trustee or Beneficiary, for
the purpose, and as may be designated in such request. Any such sale or sales
made under or by virtue of this Article II, whether made under the power of sale
herein granted or under or by virtue of judicial proceedings or of a judgment or
decree of foreclosure and sale, shall operate to divest all the estate, right,
title, interest, claim and demand whatsoever, whether at law or in equity, of
Grantor in and to the properties and rights so sold, and shall be a perpetual
bar both at law and in equity against Grantor and against any and all persons
claiming or who may claim the same, or any part thereof from, through or under
Grantor.
(c) In the event of any sale or sales made under or by virtue of this
Article II (whether made under the power of sale herein granted or under or by
virtue of judicial proceedings or of a judgment or decree of foreclosure and
sale), the entire principal of, and interest and other sums on, the Note, if not
previously due and payable, and all other sums required to be paid by Grantor
pursuant hereto, immediately thereupon shall, anything in any of said documents
(other than Section 4.08 hereof) to the contrary notwithstanding, become due and
payable.
(d) The purchase money, proceeds or avails of any sale or sales made under
or by virtue of this Article II, together with any other sums which then may be
held by Trustee or Beneficiary hereunder, whether under the provisions of this
Article II or otherwise, shall be applied as follows:
First: To the payment of the costs and expenses of such sale,
including reasonable compensation to Trustee and Beneficiary, their agents
and counsel, and of any judicial proceedings wherein the same may be made,
and of all expenses, liabilities and advances made or incurred by Trustee
hereunder, together with interest at the Default Rate on all advances made
by Trustee, and of all taxes, assessments or other charges, except any
taxes, assessments or other charges subject to which the Mortgaged Property
shall have been sold.
Second: To the payment of the whole amount then due, owing or unpaid
upon the Note for principal and interest, with interest on the unpaid
principal at the Default Rate from and after the happening of any Event of
Default described in clause (a) of Section 2.01 from the due date of any
such payment of principal until the same is paid, in such order and amounts
as Beneficiary may elect.
Third: To the payment of any other sums required to be paid by Grantor
pursuant to any provision hereof or of the Note, including all expenses,
liabilities and advances made or incurred by Beneficiary hereunder or in
connection with the enforcement hereof, together with interest at the
Default Rate on all such advances.
Fourth: To the payment of the surplus, if any, to whomsoever may be
lawfully entitled to receive the same.
22
(e) Upon any sale or sales made under or by virtue of this Article II,
whether made under the power of sale herein granted or under or by virtue of
judicial proceedings or of a judgment or decree of foreclosure and sale,
Beneficiary may bid for and acquire the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof
and in lieu of paying cash therefor may make settlement for the purchase price
by crediting upon the indebtedness secured hereby the net sales price after
deducting therefrom the expenses of the sale and the costs of the action and any
other sums which Trustee or Beneficiary are authorized to deduct hereunder.
Section 2.03. Payment of Amounts Due. (a) In case an Event of Default
described in clause (a) of Section 2.01 shall have happened and be continuing,
then, upon demand of Beneficiary, Grantor will pay to Beneficiary the whole
amount which then shall have become due and payable on the Note, for principal
or interest or both, as the case may be, and after the happening of said Event
of Default will also pay to Beneficiary interest at the Default Rate on the then
unpaid principal of the Note, and the sums required to be paid by Grantor
pursuant to any provision hereof, and in addition thereto such further amount as
shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including
reasonable compensation to Trustee and Beneficiary, their agents and counsel and
any expenses incurred by Trustee or Beneficiary hereunder. In the event Grantor
shall fail forthwith to pay all such amounts upon such demand, Beneficiary shall
be entitled and empowered to institute such action or proceedings at law or in
equity as may be advised by its counsel for the collection of the sums so due
and unpaid, and may prosecute any such action or proceedings to judgment or
final decree, and may enforce any such judgment or final decree against Grantor
and collect, out of the property of Grantor wherever situated, as well as out of
the Mortgaged Property, in any manner provided by law, moneys adjudged or
decreed to be payable.
(b) Beneficiary shall be entitled to recover judgment as aforesaid either
before, after or during the pendency of any proceedings for the enforcement of
the provisions hereof; and the right of Beneficiary to recover such judgment
shall not be affected by any entry or sale hereunder, or by the exercise of any
other right, power or remedy for the enforcement of the provisions hereof, or
the foreclosure of the lien hereof; and in the event of a sale of the Mortgaged
Property, and of the application of the proceeds of sale, as herein provided, to
the payment of the debt hereby secured, Beneficiary shall be entitled to enforce
payment of, and to receive all amounts then remaining due and unpaid upon, the
Note, and to enforce payment of all other charges, payments and costs due
hereunder or otherwise in respect of the Loan, and shall be entitled to recover
judgment for any portion of the debt remaining unpaid, with interest at the
Default Rate. In case of proceedings against Grantor in insolvency or bankruptcy
or any proceedings for its reorganization or involving the liquidation of its
assets, then Beneficiary shall be entitled to prove the whole amount of
principal, interest and other sums due upon the Note to the full amount thereof,
and all other payments, charges and costs due hereunder or otherwise in respect
of the Loan, without deducting therefrom any proceeds obtained from the sale of
the whole or any part of the Mortgaged Property, provided, however, that in no
case shall Beneficiary receive, from the aggregate amount of the proceeds of the
sale of the Mortgaged Property and the distribution from the estate
23
of Grantor, a greater amount than such principal and interest and such other
payments, charges and costs.
(c) No recovery of any judgment by Beneficiary and no levy of an execution
under any judgment upon the Mortgaged Property or upon any other property of
Grantor shall affect in any manner or to any extent, the lien hereof upon the
Mortgaged Property or any part thereof, or any liens, rights, powers or remedies
of Trustee or Beneficiary hereunder, but such liens, rights, powers and remedies
of Trustee or Beneficiary shall continue unimpaired as before.
(d) Any moneys thus collected by Beneficiary under this Section 2.03 shall
be applied by Beneficiary in accordance with the provisions of clause (d) of
Section 2.02.
Section 2.04. Actions; Receivers. After the happening of any Event of
Default and immediately upon the commencement of any action, suit or other legal
proceedings by Trustee or Beneficiary to obtain judgment for the principal of,
or interest on, the Note and other sums required to be paid by Grantor pursuant
to any provision hereof, or of any other nature in aid of the enforcement of the
Note or hereof, Grantor will (a) waive the issuance and service of process and
enter its voluntary appearance in such action, suit or proceeding and (b) if
required by Beneficiary, consent to the appointment of a receiver or receivers
of all or part of the Mortgaged Property and of any or all of the Rents in
respect thereof. After the happening of any Event of Default and during its
continuance, or upon the commencement of any proceedings to foreclose this Deed
or to enforce the specific performance hereof or in aid thereof or upon the
commencement of any other judicial proceeding to enforce any right of Trustee or
Beneficiary, Trustee or Beneficiary shall be entitled, as a matter of right, if
they shall so elect, without the giving of notice to any other party and without
regard to the adequacy or inadequacy of any security for the indebtedness
secured hereby, forthwith either before or after declaring the unpaid principal
of the Note to be due and payable, to the appointment of such a receiver or
receivers.
Section 2.05. Beneficiary's Right to Possession. Notwithstanding the
appointment of any receiver, liquidator or trustee of Grantor, or of any of its
property, or of the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof, Trustee and
Beneficiary shall be entitled to retain possession and control of all property
now or hereafter held hereunder.
Section 2.06. Remedies Cumulative. No remedy herein conferred upon or
reserved to Trustee or Beneficiary is intended to be exclusive of any other
remedy or remedies, and each and every such remedy shall be cumulative, and
shall be in addition to every other remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter
existing at law, in equity or by statute. No delay or omission of Trustee or
Beneficiary to exercise any right or power accruing upon any Event of Default
shall impair any such right or power, or shall be construed to be a waiver of
any such Event of Default or any acquiescence therein; and every power and
remedy given hereby to Trustee or Beneficiary may be exercised from time to time
as often as may be deemed by them expedient. Nothing herein or in the Note shall
affect the obligation of Grantor to pay the principal of, and interest and other
sums on, the Note in the manner and at the time and place therein respectively
expressed.
24
Section 2.07. Moratorium Laws; Right of Redemption. Grantor will not at any
time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatever claim or take any benefit
or advantage of any stay or extension or moratorium law, any exemption from
execution or sale of the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof, wherever
enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, which may affect the covenants
and terms of performance hereof, nor claim, take or insist upon any benefit or
advantage of any law now or hereafter in force providing for the valuation or
appraisal of the Mortgaged Property, or any part thereof, prior to any sale or
sales thereof which may be made pursuant to any provision herein, or pursuant to
the decree, judgment or order of any court of competent jurisdiction; nor, after
any such sale or sales, claim or exercise any right under any statute heretofore
or hereafter enacted to redeem the property so sold or any part thereof and
Grantor hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law or
laws, and covenants not to hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power
herein granted or delegated to Trustee or Beneficiary, but to suffer and permit
the execution of every power as though no such law or laws had been made or
enacted. Grantor, for itself and all who may claim under it, waives, to the
extent that it lawfully may, all right to have the Mortgaged Property marshaled
upon any foreclosure hereof.
Section 2.08. Intentionally Omitted.
Section 2.09. Beneficiary's Rights Concerning Application of Amounts
Collected. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, upon the
occurrence of an Event of Default, Beneficiary may apply, to the extent
permitted by law, any amount collected hereunder to principal, interest or any
other sum due under the Note or otherwise in respect of the Loan in such order
and amounts, and to such obligations, as Beneficiary shall elect in its sole and
absolute discretion.
ARTICLE III
CONCERNING TRUSTEE
Section 3.01. Trustee's Performance. Trustee, by its acceptance hereof,
covenants faithfully to perform and fulfill the trusts herein created, being
liable, however, only for willful negligence or misconduct, and hereby waives
any statutory fee and agrees to accept reasonable compensation, in lieu thereof,
for any services rendered by it in accordance with the terms hereof.
Section 3.02. Resignation by Trustee. Trustee may resign at any time upon
giving thirty (30) days' notice to Grantor and Beneficiary.
Section 3.03. Removal of Trustee; Successors. Beneficiary may remove
Trustee at any time or from time to time and select a successor trustee. In the
event of the death, removal, resignation or refusal or inability to act of
Trustee, or in its sole discretion for any reason whatsoever, Beneficiary may,
without notice and without specifying any reason therefor and without applying
to any court, select and appoint a successor Trustee, and all powers, rights,
duties and authority of Trustee, as aforesaid, shall thereupon become vested in
such successor. In such connection, Beneficiary may, on its and
25
Grantor's behalf, execute, acknowledge and record an instrument or agreement of
such substitution, and Grantor hereby irrevocably appoints Beneficiary as its
attorney-in-fact, with full power of substitution, to do so. Such substitute
trustee shall not be required to give bond for the faithful performance of its
duties unless required by Beneficiary.
ARTICLE IV
MISCELLANEOUS
Section 4.01. Assignment of Rents. This Deed is intended to constitute a
present, absolute and irrevocable assignment of all of the Rents now or
hereafter accruing, and Grantor, without limiting the generality of the Granting
Clause hereof, specifically hereby presently, absolutely and irrevocably assigns
all of the Rents now or hereafter accruing to Beneficiary. The aforesaid
assignment shall be effective immediately upon the execution hereof and is not
conditioned upon the occurrence of any Event of Default hereunder or any other
contingency or event, provided, however, that Beneficiary hereby grants to
Grantor the right and license to collect and receive the Rents as they become
due, and not in advance, so long as no Event of Default exists hereunder.
Immediately upon the occurrence of any such Event of Default, the foregoing
right and license shall be automatically terminated and of no further force or
effect. Nothing contained in this Section or elsewhere herein shall be construed
to make Beneficiary a mortgagee in possession unless and until Beneficiary
actually takes possession of the Mortgaged Property, nor to obligate Beneficiary
to take any action or incur any expense or discharge any duty or liability under
or in respect of any leases or other agreements relating to the Mortgaged
Property or any part thereof.
Section 4.02. Security Agreement.
This Deed constitutes a security agreement under the applicable Uniform
Commercial Code with respect to the Chattels and such other of the Mortgaged
Property which is personal property. In addition to the rights and remedies
granted to Beneficiary by other applicable law or hereby, Beneficiary shall have
all of the rights and remedies with respect to the Chattels and such other
personal property as are granted to a secured party under the applicable Uniform
Commercial Code. Upon Beneficiary's request after an Event of Default, Grantor
shall promptly and at its expense assemble the Chattels and such other personal
property and make the same available to Beneficiary at a convenient place
acceptable to Beneficiary. Grantor, after an Event of Default, shall pay to
Beneficiary on demand, with interest at the Default Rate, any and all expenses,
including attorneys' fees, incurred by Beneficiary in protecting its interest in
the Chattels and such other personal property and in enforcing its rights with
respect thereto. Any notice of sale, disposition or other intended action by
Beneficiary with respect to the Chattels and such other personal property sent
to Grantor in accordance with the provisions hereof at least five (5) days prior
to such action shall constitute reasonable notice to Grantor. The proceeds of
any such sale or disposition, or any part thereof, may be applied by Beneficiary
to the payment of the indebtedness secured hereby in such order and proportions
as Beneficiary in its discretion shall deem appropriate. To the extent Grantor
may lawfully do so and without limiting any rights and/or privileges herein
granted to
26
Beneficiary, Grantor agrees that Beneficiary and/or Trustee and any successor
Trustee may dispose of any or all of the Chattels at the same time and place and
after giving the same notices provided in this Deed in connection with a
non-judicial foreclosure sale under the terms and conditions set forth in
Article II, Section 2.01, III or IV, of this Deed. In this connection, Grantor
agrees that the sale may be conducted by Trustee or successor Trustee; that the
sale of the real estate and improvements described in this Deed and the Chattels
or any part thereof, may be sold separately or together; and that in the event
the Premises and the Chattels or any part thereof are sold together, Beneficiary
will not be obligated to allocate the consideration received as between the
Premises and the Chattels.
Section 4.03. Application of Certain Payments. In the event that all or any
part of the Mortgaged Property is encumbered by one or more deeds of trust held
by or for the benefit of Beneficiary, Grantor hereby irrevocably authorizes and
directs Beneficiary to apply any payment received by Beneficiary in respect of
any note secured hereby or by any other such deed of trust to the payment of
such of said notes as Beneficiary shall elect in its sole and absolute
discretion, and Beneficiary shall have the right to apply any such payment in
reduction of principal and/or interest and in such order and amounts as
Beneficiary shall elect in its sole and absolute discretion without regard to
the priority of the deed of trust securing the note so repaid or to contrary
directions from Grantor or any other party.
Section 4.04. Severability. In the event any one or more of the provisions
contained herein or in the Note shall for any reason be held to be invalid,
illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality or
unenforceability shall not affect any other provision hereof, but this Deed
shall be construed as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had
never been contained herein or therein.
Section 4.05. Modifications and Waivers in Writing. No provision hereof may
be changed, waived, discharged or terminated orally or by any other means except
an instrument in writing signed by the party against whom enforcement of the
change, waiver, discharge or termination is sought. Any agreement hereafter made
by Grantor and Beneficiary relating hereto shall be superior to the rights of
the holder of any intervening or subordinate lien or encumbrance.
Section 4.06. Notices. All notices, demands, consents, approvals and
statements required or permitted hereunder shall be in writing and shall be
deemed to have been sufficiently given or served for all purposes when presented
personally, three (3) days after mailing by registered or certified mail,
postage prepaid, or one (1) day after delivery to a nationally recognized
overnight courier service providing evidence of the date of delivery, if to
Grantor at its address stated above, with a copy to Xxxxxx X. Xxxxx, Esq.,
Jenkens & Xxxxxxxxx, 0000 Xxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxx 0000, Xxxxxx, Xxxxx 00000-0000, and
if to Beneficiary at its address stated above, or at such other address of which
a party shall have notified the party giving such notice in accordance with the
provisions of this Section.
Section 4.07. Successors and Assigns. All of the grants, covenants, terms,
provisions and conditions herein shall run with the land and shall apply to,
bind and inure
27
to the benefit of, the successors and assigns of Grantor, the successors in
trust of Trustee and the endorsees, transferees, successors and assigns of
Beneficiary.
Section 4.08. Limitation on Interest. Anything herein or in the Note to the
contrary notwithstanding, the obligations of Grantor hereunder and under the
Note shall be subject to the limitation that payments of interest shall not be
required to the extent that receipt of any such payment by Beneficiary would be
contrary to provisions of law applicable to Beneficiary limiting the maximum
rate of interest that may be charged or collected by Beneficiary.
Section 4.09. Counterparts. This Deed may be executed in any number of
counterparts and each of such counterparts shall for all purposes be deemed to
be an original; and all such counterparts shall together constitute but one and
the same deed.
Section 4.10. Substitute Deeds. Grantor and Beneficiary shall, upon their
mutual agreement to do so, execute such documents as may be necessary in order
to effectuate the modification hereof, including the execution of substitute
deeds of trust, so as to create two (2) or more liens on or security titles in
respect of the Mortgaged Property in such amounts as may be mutually agreed upon
but in no event to exceed, in the aggregate, the unpaid principal portion of the
Note Amount; in such event, Grantor covenants and agrees to pay the reasonable
fees and expenses of Beneficiary and its counsel in connection with any such
modification.
Section 4.11. Beneficiary's Sale of Interests in Loan. Grantor recognizes
that Beneficiary may sell and transfer interests in the Loan to one or more
participants or assignees and that all documentation, financial statements,
appraisals and other data, or copies thereof, relevant to Grantor, any Guarantor
or the Loan, may be exhibited to and retained by any such participant or
assignee or prospective participant or assignee.
Section 4.12. No Merger of Interests. Unless expressly provided otherwise,
in the event that ownership hereof and title to the fee and/or leasehold estates
in the Premises encumbered hereby shall become vested in the same person or
entity, this Deed shall not merge in said title but shall continue to be and
remain a valid and subsisting lien and/or trust deed on said estates in the
Premises for the amount secured hereby.
Section 4.13. CERTAIN WAIVERS. BY EXECUTION OF THIS DEED AND BY INITIALING
THIS SECTION 4.13, GRANTOR EXPRESSLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY: (A) ACKNOWLEDGES THE
RIGHT OF BENEFICIARY TO ACCELERATE THE INDEBTEDNESS EVIDENCED BY THE NOTE AND
ANY OTHER INDEBTEDNESS IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LOAN DOCUMENTS AND THE POWER OF

EXCEPT SUCH NOTICE (IF ANY) IS SPECIFICALLY REQUIRED TO BE GIVEN UNDER THE LOAN
DOCUMENTS OR UNDER THE RIGHTS OR BENEFITS OF ANY STATUTE OF LIMITATION OR ANY
MORATORIUM, REINSTATEMENT, MARSHALING, FORBEARANCE, APPRAISEMENT, VALUATION,
STAY, EXTENSION, HOMESTEAD, EXEMPTION OR REDEMPTION BY LAW; (C) WAIVES BY
EXECUTION HEREOF, AND BENEFICIARY WAIVES BY ACCEPTANCE HEREOF, IN CONNECTION
WITH ANY FORECLOSURE OR SIMILAR ACTION OR PROCEDURE BROUGHT BY BENEFICIARY
ASSERTING AN EVENT OF DEFAULT UNDER CLAUSE (A) OF SECTION 2.01 OF THIS DEED, ANY
AND EVERY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY; (D) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT GRANTOR
HAS READ THIS DEED AND ITS PROVISIONS HAVE BEEN EXPLAINED FULLY TO GRANTOR, AND
GRANTOR HAS CONSULTED WITH COUNSEL OF GRANTOR'S CHOICE PRIOR TO EXECUTING THIS
DEED AND INITIALING THIS SECTION 4.13; AND (E) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT ALL WAIVERS OF
THE AFORESAID RIGHTS OF GRANTOR HAVE BEEN MADE KNOWINGLY, INTENTIONALLY AND
WILLINGLY BY GRANTOR AS A PART OF A BARGAINED-FOR LOAN TRANSACTION AND THAT THIS
DEED IS VALID AND ENFORCEABLE BY BENEFICIARY AGAINST GRANTOR IN ACCORDANCE WITH
ALL THE TERMS, PROVISIONS AND CONDITIONS HEREOF.
Section 4.14. GOVERNING LAW. THE PERFORMANCE REQUIRED BY THIS DEED SHALL,
INSOFAR AS IS POSSIBLE, BE RENDERED TO THE BENEFICIARY AT ITS OFFICE IN
TENNESSEE. GRANTOR AND BENEFICIARY INTEND THAT THE VALIDITY AND CONSTRUCTION OF
THE OBLIGATIONS SECURED BY THIS DEED BE GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF

THE PAYMENT OF INTEREST OR ANY OTHER COMPENSATION FOR THE USE, FORBEARANCE OR

Texas, and the covenants in this Deed are substantially similar and (ii) that
performance under either the First Deed or this Deed constitutes performance
under the other. Grantor acknowledges, however, that failure to perform any such
