9:5386-5388, La. R.S. Section 10:1-101 et seq. (the "Uniform Commercial Code"
or "UCC") and other applicable laws, for the purpose of securing the
Obligations that may now be existing and/or that may arise in the future as
provided herein, with the preferences and priorities provided under
applicable Louisiana law. In accordance with the requirements of applicable
law, including Louisiana Civil Code art. 3288 and L.A. R.S. Section 9:4401,
Mortgagor acknowledges, notwithstanding any other provision of this Mortgage
or any other document to the contrary, the maximum amount of Obligations
secured hereby shall be U.S. $50,000,000.00. Mortgagor authorizes Mortgagee
to file multiple originals, or photocopies, carbon copies, or facsimile
copies of this Mortgage or of such financing statements with the appropriate
filing officer in the State of Louisiana pursuant to the provisions of the
Uniform Commercial Code. Mortgagor's employer identification number is
accurately set out on the first page of this Mortgage. Mortgagor will not
change its employer identification number or its name, identity or corporate
structure so that any financing statement filed in connection herewith may
become seriously misleading unless and until it notifies Mortgagee in writing
and executes all new appropriate financing statements or other such documents
as Mortgagee may require, with Mortgagor being required to pay the cost of
such documentation and the filing thereof as provided above.
It is the specific intention of the parties to this Mortgage that this
Mortgage shall continue in full force and effect until satisfied by a written
satisfaction executed and delivered by Mortgagee to Mortgagor. The lien of this
Mortgage shall continue to secure future Obligations, including advances or
other extensions of credit to Mortgagor, notwithstanding that there may be no
present outstanding balance of the Obligation or the Obligation may have been
reduced to zero, whether under a revolving credit arrangement or otherwise, it
being the intent of this Mortgage to secure mandatory and optional
-3-
future advances and other extensions of credit.
Mortgagor covenants and agrees with Mortgagee as follows:
1. COMPLIANCE WITH OBLIGATION AND MORTGAGE; WARRANTY OF TITLE. Mortgagor
shall comply with all provisions of the Obligation, this Mortgage and of every
other instrument evidencing or securing the Obligation and will promptly pay to
Mortgagee the principal with interest thereon and all other sums required to be
paid by Mortgagor under the Obligation and pursuant to the provisions of this
Mortgage and of every other instrument evidencing or securing the Obligation.
Mortgagor hereby warrants to Mortgagee, and shall continue to warrant to
Mortgagee so long as this Mortgage is in effect that (i) Mortgagor has good and
marketable title to the Mortgaged Property real estate in fee simple (full
ownership), (ii) the Mortgage lien and security interests created by this
Mortgage are first liens and security interests on the Mortgaged Property,
superior to all other liens or security interests on the Mortgaged Property,
(iii) Mortgagor has the full power and authority to, and has obtained all
necessary consents and approvals to, execute and deliver this Mortgage and carry
out the terms hereof, (iv) this Mortgage is valid and enforceable in accordance
with its terms, subject to the rights of creditors generally under bankruptcy
and insolvency laws, and judicial discretion in the enforcement of equitable
remedies, (v) Mortgagor shall protect and defend the Mortgage liens and security
interests created hereby against the claims of all other parties, and (vi) no
part of the Mortgaged Property is homestead property of any person named as
Mortgagor.
2. TAXES; LIENS.
a) Mortgagor shall pay promptly, when due, and shall promptly
deliver to Mortgagee receipts therefor, all taxes, assessments, rates, dues,
charges, fees, impositions, obligations and encumbrances of every kind
whatsoever now or hereafter imposed, levied or assessed upon or against the
Mortgaged Property or any part thereof, or upon or against this Mortgage or the
indebtedness or other sums secured hereby, or upon or against the interest of
Mortgagee in the Mortgaged Property, as well as all income taxes, assessments
and other governmental charges levied or imposed by any taxing authority upon or
against Mortgagor, the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof and any charge
which, if unpaid, would become a lien or charge upon the Mortgaged Property.
b) Mortgagor shall not permit any mechanics', laborer's,
materialmen's, statutory or other lien to be created or to remain a lien upon
any of the Mortgaged Property, unless the same is removed or bonded off within
thirty (30) days after filing thereof.
c) Upon the occurrence of an event of default hereunder, Mortgagee
may, at its option, require Mortgagor to deposit with Mortgagee each month
during the term of this Mortgage, an amount equal to one-twelfth (1/12) of the
yearly taxes and assessments as estimated by Mortgagee to be sufficient to
enable Mortgagee to pay at least thirty (30) days before they become due all
taxes, assessments and other similar charges against the Mortgaged Property.
Such deposits shall not be trust funds, but may be commingled with the general
funds of Mortgagee, and no interest shall be payable in respect thereof. Upon
demand by Mortgagee, Mortgagor shall deliver to Mortgagee such additional monies
as are required to pay such taxes, assessments and similar charges. In the
event of a default under any of the terms, covenants and conditions in the
Obligation or this Mortgage, Mortgagee may apply such deposits to the reduction
of the sums secured hereby.
3. INSURANCE.
a) Mortgagor shall keep any improvements on the Mortgaged Property
and all personalty which is Mortgaged Property insured under standard fire and
extended coverage policies for the full replacement value of the Mortgaged
Property and for such other amounts, against such other risks and upon such
terms and for such periods as may be reasonably required by Mortgagee.
Mortgagor shall pay promptly, when due, any premiums on such insurance. All
insurance shall be carried with companies approved by Mortgagee and shall
contain New York standard mortgagee clauses and waivers of subrogation in favor
of and in form acceptable to Mortgagee. All such policies shall show Mortgagee
as an additional insured and shall not be cancelable without thirty (30) days
prior written notice to Mortgagee. Mortgagor shall furnish Mortgagee with
copies of all such policies and renewals. In the event of loss, Mortgagor shall
give immediate notice by mail to Mortgagee and Mortgagee may make proof of loss
if not made promptly by Mortgagor. Mortgagor hereby authorizes each insurance
company to make payments for such loss directly to Mortgagee instead of to
Mortgagor
-4-
or Mortgagor and Mortgagee jointly. Mortgagee is hereby authorized, at its
option, to settle and compromise any claims, awards, damages, rights of action
and proceeds, and any other payment or relief under any insurance policy. In
the event of foreclosure of this Mortgage or other transfer of title to the
Mortgaged Property in extinguishment of the Obligation secured hereby, all
right, title and interest of Mortgagor in and to any insurance policies then in
force shall pass to the purchaser or grantee.
b) Insurance proceeds or any part thereof may be applied by
Mortgagee at its option, after deducting therefrom all of its expenses including
attorneys' fees, either to the reduction of the amounts due on the Obligation or
repair of the property damaged; provided however, that if Mortgagee requires
Mortgagor to rebuild or restore the Mortgaged Property following a casualty, as
provided elsewhere in this Mortgage, Mortgagee shall make available to
Mortgagor, all insurance proceeds received as a result of such casualty, for
Mortgagor's use in connection with such repairs or restoration. Mortgagee may
place reasonable restrictions and requirements upon the disbursement of all such
funds in order to insure their proper application to defray costs of repair and
reconstruction, including without limitation, provisions for retainage and
provisions requiring Mortgagor to escrow any additional amounts in excess of
available insurance proceeds required for completion of such repairs or
restoration.
c) Upon the occurrence of an event of default hereunder, Mortgagee
may, at its option, require Mortgagor to deposit with Mortgagee on a monthly
basis an amount equal to one-twelfth (1/12) of the yearly premiums for all
insurance. Such deposits shall not be trust funds, but may be commingled with
the general funds of Mortgagee, and no interest shall be payable in respect
thereof. Upon demand by Mortgagee, Mortgagor shall deliver to Mortgagee such
additional monies necessary to pay such premiums when due. In the event of
default under any of the terms, covenants and conditions in the Obligation or
this Mortgage, Mortgagee may apply to the reduction of the sums secured hereby,
in such manner as Mortgagee shall determine, any amount under this paragraph
remaining to Mortgagor's credit and any return premium received from
cancellation of any insurance policy by Mortgagee upon foreclosure of this
Mortgage.
4. CONDEMNATION. If the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof shall be
damaged or taken through condemnation (which term shall include any damage or
taking by any governmental authority or any other authority authorized by the
laws of the State of Louisiana or the United States of America to so damage or
take, and any transfer by private sale in lieu thereof) Mortgagee shall be
entitled to all awards, damages, claims, rights of action and proceeds of, or on
account of any damage or taking through condemnation and is hereby authorized,
at its option, to commence, appear in and prosecute, in its own or Mortgagor's
name, any action or proceeding relating to any condemnation, and to settle or
compromise any claim in connection therewith. All such awards, damages, claims,
rights of action and proceeds, and any other payments or relief, and the right
thereto, are hereby assigned by Mortgagor to Mortgagee and Mortgagee after
deducting therefrom all its expenses including attorneys' fees may release to
Mortgagor any monies so received by it without affecting the lien of this
Mortgage or may apply the same, in such manner as Mortgagee shall determine, to
the reduction of the sums secured hereby; provided however, that if Mortgagee
requires Mortgagor to repair or restore damages to the remaining portion of the
Mortgaged Property not so taken, it shall make condemnation proceeds available
to Mortgagor for Mortgagor's use in defraying the costs thereof, subject to the
same restrictions as allowed to Mortgagee pursuant to paragraph 3(b) above with
respect to insurance proceeds. Any balance of such monies then remaining shall
be paid to Mortgagor. Mortgagor agrees to execute such further assignments of
any awards, damages, claims, rights of action and proceeds as Mortgagee may
require.
5. CARE OF MORTGAGED PROPERTY. Mortgagor shall not cut or remove any
material amount of timber, sever, remove or grant any rights in any oil, gas,
minerals, limerock, phosphate, soil or other materials or remove or demolish any
building or other property forming a part of the Mortgaged Property without the
prior written consent of Mortgagee. Mortgagor shall not permit, commit or
suffer any waste, impairment or deterioration of the Mortgaged Property or any
part thereof, and shall keep the same and improvements thereon in good condition
and repair; including without limitation, any repairs or restoration required as
a result of casualty or condemnation. Mortgagor shall notify Mortgagee in
writing within five (5) days of any damage or impairment of the Mortgaged
Property. Mortgagor shall comply with all laws and regulations applicable to
the Mortgaged Property, including, without limitation, all zoning,
environmental, land use and toxic or hazardous waste disposal laws. Mortgagee
may, at Mortgagee's discretion, have the Mortgaged Property inspected at any
time and
-5-
Mortgagor shall pay all reasonable costs incurred by Mortgagee in executing such
inspection.
6. MORTGAGEE'S RIGHT TO MAKE CERTAIN PAYMENTS. In the event Mortgagor
fails to complete any improvements to the Mortgaged Property, pay or discharge
the taxes, assessments, levies, liabilities, obligations (including obligations
under any leases) or encumbrances affecting the Mortgaged Property, or fails to
keep the Mortgaged Property insured or to deliver the policies, premiums paid,
or fails to repair the Mortgaged Property as herein agreed, or fails to make any
payment required under any other mortgage or security agreement relating to the
Mortgaged Property (whether or not the existence of such mortgage or security
agreement is permitted by this Mortgage), or fails to take any actions
reasonably necessary to preserve the value of the Mortgaged Property, or
Mortgagor otherwise defaults in any covenant herein or in any loan agreement or
other document evidencing or securing the Obligation, Mortgagee may at its
option, without waiving or curing any default by Mortgagor, expend funds to
complete such improvements, pay or discharge any taxes, assessments, levies, or
liabilities, pay off or cure any default under obligations and encumbrances,
procure and pay for insurance or make and pay for repairs as is deemed necessary
or appropriate by Mortgagee, otherwise perform any action required to be
performed by Mortgagor and take such action to preserve the value of the
Mortgaged Property. Mortgagee shall have no obligation on its part to determine
the validity or necessity of any payment and any such payment shall not waive or
affect any option, lien, equity or right of Mortgagee under or by virtue of this
Mortgage. The full amount of each and every such payment shall be immediately
due and payable and shall bear interest from the date thereof until paid at the
Default Rate, as defined below, and together with such interest, shall be
secured by the lien of this Mortgage. Nothing herein contained shall be
construed as requiring Mortgagee to advance or expend monies for any of the
purposes mentioned in this paragraph. No such payments shall be deemed to waive
or cure any default hereunder.
7. PAYMENT OF EXPENSES. Mortgagor shall pay all of the costs, advances,
charges and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees, disbursements and
cost of abstracts of title, documentary and intangibles taxes (and any penalties
or interest with respect thereto) incurred in connection with the Obligation
(including future advances) or this Mortgage or the enforcement thereof or paid
at any time by Mortgagee due to the failure on the part of Mortgagor promptly
and fully to perform, comply with and abide by each and every stipulation,
agreement, condition and covenant of the Obligation and this Mortgage. Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Mortgagee is specifically
authorized to advance funds necessary to complete the construction of
improvements on the Mortgaged Property. Such costs, charges and expenses shall
be immediately due and payable, whether or not there be notice, demand, attempt
to collect or suit pending. The full amount of each and every such payment made
by Mortgagee shall bear interest from the date thereof until paid at the Default
Rate, as hereinafter defined. All such costs, charges and expenses so incurred
or paid, together with such interest, shall be secured by the lien of this
Mortgage and any other instrument securing the Obligation. No such payments
shall be deemed to waive or cure any default hereunder. The provisions of this
paragraph shall survive the payment of the Obligation and satisfaction of this
Mortgage.
8. AFTER ACQUIRED PROPERTY. The lien of this Mortgage will automatically
attach, without further act, to all after acquired property of whatever kind
located in, on or contiguous to, or attached to, or used or intended to be used
in connection with or in the operation of the Mortgaged Property.
9. ADDITIONAL DOCUMENTS. At all times that this Mortgage is in effect,
upon Mortgagee's request, Mortgagor shall at Mortgagor's expense make, execute
and deliver to Mortgagee any and all such further mortgages, financing
statements, instruments of further assurance, certificates and other documents
as Mortgagee may consider reasonably necessary or desirable in order to
effectuate, complete, perfect, continue or preserve the obligations of Mortgagor
under the Obligation and this Mortgage, and the lien of this Mortgage as a
paramount first lien upon all the Mortgaged Property. Upon any failure by
Mortgagor to do so, Mortgagee may make, execute, record, file, re-record,
reinscribe or refile any and all such mortgages, instruments, certificates and
documents for and in the name of Mortgagor. Mortgagor hereby irrevocably
appoints Mortgagee as agent and attorney-in-fact of Mortgagor to do all things
necessary to effectuate or assure compliance with this Mortgage.
10. EVENT OF DEFAULT. Any one of the following shall constitute an event
of default:
a) Failure by Mortgagor to pay as and when the same are due and
payable, any principal or interest due under the Obligation, or any deposits for
taxes and assessments or insurance
-6-
premiums due hereunder, or any other sums to be paid by Mortgagor hereunder or
under any loan agreement or other instrument evidencing or securing the
Obligation, which failure is not cured within ten (10) days after the due date.
b) Failure by Mortgagor to duly keep, perform and observe any other
covenant, condition or agreement in the Obligation, this Mortgage, or any loan
agreement or other instrument now or hereafter evidencing or securing the
Obligation for a period of thirty (30) days after Mortgagee gives written notice
to Mortgagor specifying the breach.
c) If Mortgagor or any guarantor or endorser of the Obligation:
(i) files a voluntary petition in bankruptcy, or (ii) files any petition or
answer seeking or acquiescing in any reorganization, arrangement, composition,
liquidation, dissolution or similar relief for itself under any law relating to
bankruptcy, insolvency or other relief for debtors, or (iii) seeks or consents
to or acquiesces in the appointment of any trustee, receiver, master or
liquidator of itself or of any substantial part of the Mortgaged Property or of
the rents, revenues, issues, earnings, profits or income thereof, or (iv) any
such trustee, liquidator, receiver or master is appointed, or a bankruptcy or
other insolvency proceeding is brought against any such person without the prior
written consent of Mortgagee, which appointment or proceeding shall remain
unvacated and unstayed for an aggregate of sixty (60) days whether or not
consecutive.
d) Any breach of any warranty or material untruth of any
representation of Mortgagor or any guarantor or endorser of the Obligation,
contained in the Obligation, this Mortgage or any loan agreement or other
instrument evidencing, securing or given in connection with the Obligation.
e) Any default under any instrument guaranteeing or endorsing the
Obligation or under any other mortgage or security agreement encumbering all or
any part of the Mortgaged Property whether prior to or junior to this Mortgage
and whether or not the existence of such lien is permitted hereby, if such
default continues in effect for more than thirty (30) days after written notice
thereof to the Mortgagor; provided that no notice and grace period shall be
required to be given if any action to foreclose or sell any Mortgaged Property
is taken by any third party.
f) If this Mortgage, the Obligation or any instrument evidencing,
securing, endorsing or guaranteeing the Obligation shall be invalid or
unenforceable in whole or material part or any guarantor, endorser or obligor
under an instrument securing the Obligation shall terminate or repudiate its
obligations.
g) Any default by Mortgagor with respect to any material obligations
now or hereafter owed by such person to Mortgagee, including without limitation,
obligations owed pursuant to a Note and Mortgage of even date made by Mortgagor
to Mortgagee evidencing and securing indebtedness in the original amount of
$18,300,000.
11. ACCELERATION. If an event of default shall have occurred, Mortgagee
may declare the outstanding principal amount of the Obligation and the interest
accrued thereon, and all other sums secured hereby, to be due and payable
immediately. Upon such declaration all principal and interest and other sums
shall immediately be due and payable without demand or notice. If any part of
the Obligation is payable on demand, nothing herein shall be deemed to limit the
right of the holder of such Obligation to demand payment.
12. REMEDIES AFTER DEFAULT.
(a) Mortgagee, at its option, may declare the entire unpaid balance of the
Obligations secured hereby to be immediately due and payable, and upon any such
declaration the entire Obligations secured hereby shall become and be
immediately due and payable;
(b) Mortgagee may commence appropriate Louisiana foreclosure proceedings
under this Mortgage, in which case Mortgagee may cause the Mortgaged Property,
or any part or parts thereof, to be immediately seized and sold, whether in term
of court or in vacation, under ordinary or executory process, in accordance with
applicable Louisiana law, to the highest bidder for cash, with or without
appraisement, and without the necessity of making additional demand upon or
notifying Mortgagor or placing Mortgagor in default, all of which are expressly
waived.
-7-
(c) For purposes of foreclosure under Louisiana executory process
procedures, Mortgagor confesses judgment and acknowledges to be indebted unto
and in favor of Mortgagee, up to the full amount of the Obligations secured
hereby, in principal, interest, costs, expenses, and attorneys' fees. To the
extent permitted under applicable Louisiana law, Mortgagee additionally waives:
(a) the benefit of appraisal as provided in Articles 2332, 2336, 2723 and 2724

appraisal upon judicial sale; (b) the demand and three (3) days' delay as

other benefits provided under Articles 2331, 2722 and 2723 of the Louisiana Code
of Civil Procedure and all other Articles not specifically mentioned above.
Should it become necessary for Mortgagee to foreclose under this Mortgage, all
declarations of fact, which are made under an authentic act before a Notary
Public in the presence of two witnesses, by a person declaring such facts to lie
within his or her knowledge, shall constitute authentic evidence for purposes of
executory process and also for purposes of La. R.S. 9:3509.1, La. R.S.
9:3504(D)(6) and La. R.S. 10:9-508, where applicable.
(d) Should any or all of the Mortgaged Property be seized as an incident
to an action for the recognition or enforcement of this Mortgage, by executory
process, sequestration, attachment, writ of fieri facias or otherwise, Mortgagor
hereby agrees that the court issuing any such order shall, if requested by
Mortgagee, appoint Mortgagee, or any agent designated by Mortgagee, or any
person or entity named by Mortgagee at the time such seizure is requested, or
any time thereafter, as Keeper of all or a part of the Mortgaged Property as
provided under La. R.S. 9:5136, et seq. Such a Keeper shall be entitled to
reasonable compensation. Mortgagor agrees to pay the reasonable fees of such
Keeper, which compensation to the Keeper shall also be secured by this Mortgage.
(e) With respect to personal (movable) property ("Personal Property")
subject to the Uniform Commercial Code, Mortgagee shall have all of the rights
and remedies of a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code.
(f) Should one or more Events of Default occur or exist under this
Mortgage, Mortgagee shall have the additional right, at its sole option, to
separately sell the aforesaid Personal Property and Rights, or any part or parts
thereof, at private or public sale, at such price or prices as Mortgagee may
deem best, either for cash or for any other compensation, or on credit, or for
future delivery, without the assumption of any credit risk. Such sale may be
without appraisement, the benefit of which is also expressly waived by
Mortgagor. Mortgagee may exercise any other remedies with regard to the
Personal Property and Rights as may be authorized under the Uniform Commercial
Code. The sale, lease or other disposition of such collateral after default may
be for cash, credit, or any combination thereof. Mortgagee may purchase all or
any part of such collateral at public sale (or if permitted by law, at private
sale) and in lieu of actual payment of any such purchase price, may set-off the
amount of such price against then outstanding balance of the Obligations. Any
notice required to be given by Mortgagee of a sale, lease or other disposition,
or other intended action with respect to such collateral, given at least ten
(10) calendar days prior to such proposed action, shall constitute reasonable
and fair notice to Mortgagor of such action.
(g) Mortgagee may, in addition to the foregoing remedies, or in lieu
thereof, in Mortgagee's discretion, commence an appropriate action against
Mortgagor seeking specific performance of any covenant contained herein, or in
aid of the execution or enforcement of any power herein granted.
(h) Mortgagee shall have the right, at its sole option and election, at
any time upon an Event of Default, to directly collect and receive all proceeds
and/or payments arising under or in any way accruing from Mortgagor's rights, as
such amounts become due and payable. In order to permit the foregoing,
Mortgagor unconditionally agrees following an Event of Default to deliver to
Mortgagee, immediately following demand, any and all of Mortgagor's records,
ledger sheets, and other documentation, in the form requested by Mortgagee, with
regard to Mortgagor's Rights and any and all proceeds and/or payments applicable
thereto. Mortgagee shall have the further right upon an Event of Default, where
appropriate and within Mortgagee's sole discretion, to file suit, either in
Mortgagee's own name or in the name of Mortgagor, to collect any and all
proceeds and payments that may then and/or in the future be due and owing under
and/or as a result of such rights. Where it is
-8-
necessary for Mortgagee to attempt to collect any such proceeds and/or payments
from the obligors therefor, Mortgagee may compromise, settle, extend, or renew
for any period (whether or not longer than the original period) any obligation
or indebtedness thereunder or evidenced thereby, or surrender, release, or
exchange all or any part of said obligation or indebtedness, without affecting
the liability of Mortgagor under this Mortgage or under the Indebtedness. To
that end, Mortgagor hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints Mortgagee as its
attorney-in-fact, coupled with an interest and with full power of substitution,
to take following an Event of Default any and all such actions and any and all
other actions permitted hereby, either in the name of Mortgagor or Mortgagee.
13. NO WAIVER. No delay or omission of Mortgagee or of any holder of the
Obligation to exercise any right, power or remedy accruing upon any event of
default shall exhaust or impair any such right, power or remedy or shall be
construed to waive any event of default or to constitute acquiescence therein.
14. NON-EXCLUSIVE REMEDIES. No right, power or remedy conferred upon or
reserved to Mortgagee by the Obligation, this Mortgage, or any other instrument
now or hereafter evidencing or securing the Obligation is exclusive of any other
right, power or remedy, but each and every such right, power and remedy shall be
cumulative and concurrent and shall be in addition to any other right, power and
remedy given hereunder or under the Obligation or any loan agreement or other
instrument evidencing or securing the Obligation, now or hereafter existing at
law, in equity or by statute. No action taken by Mortgagee shall be deemed an
election of remedies.
15. SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS BOUND. Whenever one of the parties hereto is
named or referred to herein, the heirs, successors and assigns of such party
shall be included and all covenants and agreements contained in this Mortgage,
by or on behalf of Mortgagor or Mortgagee, shall bind and inure to the benefit
of their respective heirs, successors and assigns, whether or not so expressed.
All references herein to Mortgagee shall mean the holder of the Note from time
to time.
16. SEPARATE PROVISIONS. In the event that any of the covenants,
agreements, terms or provisions contained in the Obligation, this Mortgage or
any other instrument securing the Obligation shall be invalid, illegal or
unenforceable in any respect, the validity of the remaining covenants,
agreements, terms and provisions contained herein and in the Obligation and any
other instrument securing the Obligation shall be in no way affected, prejudiced
or disturbed thereby.
17. ATTORNEYS' FEES. The term "attorneys' fees" as used in this Mortgage
includes any and all reasonable legal fees paid or incurred by Mortgagee of
whatever nature and whether or not incurred at or before trial, on appeal, in
bankruptcy proceedings or administrative actions.
18. FUTURE ADVANCES. [Intentionally deleted]
19. OBLIGATION OF MORTGAGOR. Mortgagor shall pay the cost of releasing or
satisfying this Mortgage of record.
20. NO SALE, JUNIOR LIEN OR OTHER TRANSFER; PACT DE NON ALIENANDO. It is
understood and agreed by Mortgagor that as part of the inducement to Mortgagee
to make the extension of credit evidenced by the Obligation, Mortgagee has
considered and relied on the reliability of Mortgagor and Mortgagor's ownership
and management of the Mortgaged Property, and the fact that there are no other
liens on the Mortgaged Property. To induce such reliance, Mortgagor covenants
and agrees not to directly or indirectly sell, convey, transfer, mortgage, or
otherwise dispose of any interest in or any part of the Mortgaged Property
without the prior written consent of Mortgagee to be given or withheld in
Mortgagee's sole discretion, and any such sale, conveyance, transfer or mortgage
made without Mortgagee's prior written consent shall be void. If any person
should obtain an interest in all or any part of the Mortgaged Property pursuant
to the execution or enforcement of any lien, security interest or other right,
whether superior, equal or subordinate to this Mortgage or the lien hereof, such
event shall be deemed to be a transfer by Mortgagor and an event of default
hereunder. If Mortgagor is other than an individual, any direct or indirect
sale, assignment, pledge, transfer, grant of a security interest in or other
disposition of more than 25% of the legal or equitable interests (which
percentage shall be calculated, at Mortgagee's option, based upon value, voting
interests, capital or income interests) in the Mortgagor within any thirty-six
(36) month period after the date of this Mortgage shall constitute a transfer of
the Mortgaged Property in violation of this section. Transfer or other
disposition by merger, consolidation or operation of law (other than transfers
upon death) shall be considered "transfers" within the meaning of this Paragraph
20. The provisions of this section shall be
-9-
in addition to and not in lieu of any provisions in any loan agreement or other
instrument relating to the Obligation restricting change of control of
Mortgagor or transfer of the Mortgaged Property.
21. PARTIAL RELEASES. Mortgagee may, at its sole discretion, but shall
not be required to, release portions of the Mortgaged Property on such terms and
conditions as it deems acceptable and any person having an interest in the
Mortgaged Property takes such interest subject to such discretionary releases.
22. DEFAULT RATE. The Default Rate shall be the lower of (a) highest rate
of interest after maturity contained in any note or other evidence of any
portion of the Obligation, but if none is stated then it shall be four percent
(4%) per annum in excess of the rate stated in any note or other evidence of any
portion of the Obligation which would have been applicable had such Obligation
not matured or no default had occurred or, (b) twenty-one percent (21%) per
annum.
23. AMENDMENT OF DOCUMENTS. Mortgagor agrees that the Obligation and any
other document or instrument evidencing, guaranteeing or securing the Obligation
may be amended, restated, renewed, extended, increased, decreased or otherwise
changed by the parties thereto and any such changes, or the release or
modification of any security for or guaranty or endorsement of the Obligation,
or any forbearance, indulgence, delay or waiver in enforcing the Obligation or
any instrument evidencing, securing or guaranteeing the Obligation, or any other
action, delay or omission of Mortgagee or other person in connection with the
Obligation, any such instruments or this Mortgage shall not in any way diminish
the obligations of Mortgagor or the liens granted hereunder. Neither the
bankruptcy of the Mortgagor nor any discharge of, or defense against payment of,
the Obligation (except the defense of payment in full) shall affect the lien of
this Mortgage or the rights of the Mortgagee. The Mortgagor waives presentment,
protest, notice of protest and notice of dishonor and any and all other notices
and requirements otherwise necessary to bind the Mortgagor.
24. USURY. Notwithstanding anything contained in this instrument or in
any other instrument evidencing, describing or securing the Obligation to the
contrary, in no event will the interest due hereunder or under the Obligation
exceed the maximum amount allowed by law from time to time while any part of the
indebtedness or Obligation secured hereby is outstanding, and in the event any
amount in excess of the lawful maximum is charged by the Mortgagee or paid by
the Mortgagor, Mortgagor shall be entitled to an immediate refund of the amount
of such excess together with interest on such excess amount from the date paid
until reimbursed at the maximum lawful rate in effect at the time of the
overcharge.
25. TIME OF ESSENCE. Time shall be of the essence in the performance of
each and every one of the Mortgagor's obligations hereunder.
26. JOINT AND SEVERAL OBLIGATIONS. If more than one person is named as
Mortgagor, the obligations, agreements and representations herein shall be joint
and several and solidary with each other. Any matter which is an event of
default with respect to Mortgagor shall be an event of default if it occurs with
respect to any person named as Mortgagor.
27. OTHER ENCUMBRANCES. If the Mortgaged Property is subject to other
encumbrances, Mortgagor shall not permit such encumbrances to secure more than
the amount presently so secured reduced from time to time by any presently
scheduled reductions in the amount secured and will not permit the principal
amount so secured from time to time to be increased through additional advances
or otherwise. The Mortgagor shall give immediate telephonic and written notice
to Mortgagee of any breach or default under any such instruments evidencing such
other encumbrances. The Mortgagor shall not permit the extension, amendment or
other modification of such other encumbrances without the prior written consent
of the Mortgagee. Upon the occurrence of a default under such encumbrance,
Mortgagee may, but shall not be required to cure such default, satisfy such
encumbrance or obtain release of all or any of the Mortgaged Property from such
encumbrance and any funds spent by Mortgagee in so doing shall be considered
future advances secured by this Mortgage. Any such payments shall not be deemed
to cure any default hereunder.

addresses or such other addresses as designated in writing from time to time:

clause satisfactory to the Mortgagee subordinating the interest of the lessee to
this Mortgage and agreeing that, at the election of the Mortgagee, such lessee
will attorn to the Mortgagee or other person acquiring Mortgagor's title by
foreclosure or otherwise, notwithstanding such subordination. The Mortgagor
shall perform all its obligations as and when due under any leases of the
Mortgaged Property and, except in the ordinary course of business, agrees not to
modify or agree to the termination of any such lease or any guaranty or security
therefor, accept more than one month's advance rent under any such lease, or
waive any material right under any such lease or any guaranty or security
therefor (whether or not given the option to consent to such waiver in the lease

or easements affecting the Mortgaged Property without the prior written consent
of Mortgagee. The Mortgagor shall not amend or terminate, or waive any rights

without the express written consent of the Mortgagee. The Mortgagee is hereby
granted the irrevocable right for itself or for Mortgagor to take any action
required of Mortgagor, as lessor, by any lease if the Mortgagor should fail to
do so and is irrevocably appointed as the Mortgagor's attorney-in-fact for such

agreement" as defined in Section 9-105 of the UCC and the Mortgagor and
Mortgagee are "debtor" and "secured party" respectively, as such terms are
defined in Section 9-105 of the UCC. In addition to other rights granted
herein, the Mortgagee shall have a security interest in, and the right to set

hereafter in the possession or control of Mortgagee or its agents or
correspondents for whatever reason or purpose, including items in the process of
collection.

written notice to Mortgagee prior to moving its chief executive office or
residence address.
32. POWERS. All powers of attorney and other rights granted to Mortgagee
herein are coupled with an interest and are irrevocable.

the Mortgagee required herein may be given or withheld in the discretion of the
Mortgagee.
