ARTICLE ONE
COVENANTS OF GRANTOR
Grantor covenants and agrees with the Trustee, Collateral Agent and
Holders, or any successor in title as holder of the Obligations secured hereby,
as follows:
1.01 General Representations, Covenants and Warranties. Grantor
represents, warrants and covenants that (a) Grantor is seized of a good and
valid leasehold estate in and to the Premises, and has good right, full power
and lawful authority to encumber the same as provided herein and Collateral
Agent may, subject to the provisions of the Mortgaged Lease, at all times
peaceably and quietly enter upon, hold, occupy and enjoy the Premises in
accordance with the terms hereof; (b) the Property is free and clear of all
liens, security interests, charges and encumbrances whatsoever except to the
extent permitted by clauses (1), (2), (3), (4), (5), (8), (15) and (16) of the
definition of Permitted Liens, as defined in the Indenture, and except for any
liens, security interests, charges and encumbrances created or arising by,
through or under the landlord under the Mortgaged Lease or its
predecessors-in-title; (c) Grantor will maintain and
-4-
preserve the lien of this Deed of Trust until the Obligations secured hereby
have been paid in full; (d) the Premises has frontage on, and direct access of
ingress, egress, and regress to, public rights of way; and (e) electric, gas,
sewer, water facilities and any other necessary utilities are, and at all times
hereafter shall be, available in sufficient capacity to service the Premises
satisfactorily for its current use, and any easements necessary to the
furnishing of such utility service to Grantor have been obtained.
1.02 Compliance with Laws. To the extent Grantor is required to so
comply under the Mortgaged Lease, Grantor covenants and warrants that the
Premises presently complies in all material respects with and will continue to
comply in all material respects with all applicable restrictive covenants,
applicable zoning and subdivision ordinances and building codes, all applicable
health and environmental laws and regulations and other applicable laws, rules
and regulations which affect the Premises and the operations of Grantor on the
Premises. If Grantor receives notice from any federal, state or other
governmental body that it is not in compliance with any such covenant,
ordinance, code, law or regulation, Grantor will provide Collateral Agent with a
copy of such notice and comply or cause the landlord under the Mortgaged Lease
to comply with the provisions of such notice promptly if failure to comply could
reasonably be expected to result in a material adverse effect on the Premises or
the use, operation or value thereof, or on the Grantor.
1.03 Taxes and Other Charges.
(a) Taxes and Assessments. To the extent required under Section 4.04 of
the Indenture or under the Mortgaged Lease, Grantor shall pay promptly when due
all taxes, assessments, rates, dues, charges, fees, levies, fines, impositions,
liabilities, obligations and encumbrances of every kind whatsoever now or
hereafter imposed, levied or assessed upon or against the Premises or any part
thereof, or upon or against this Deed of Trust or the Obligations secured
hereby, or upon or against the security interest of Collateral Agent in the
Premises, as well as all income taxes, assessments and other governmental
charges levied and imposed by the United States of America or any state, county,
municipality or other taxing authority upon or against Grantor or in respect of
the Premises or any part thereof.
(b) Mechanic's and Other Liens. Except to the extent permitted by
clause (2) of the definition of Permitted Liens, as defined in the Indenture,
Grantor shall not permit or suffer any mechanic's, laborer's, materialman's,
statutory or other lien (other than any lien for taxes not yet due) to be
created upon or filed against the Property.
(c) Taxes Affecting Holders' Interest. Grantor will promptly pay all
income, franchise and other taxes owing by Grantor and any stamp, documentary,
recordation and transfer taxes or other taxes (unless such payment by Grantor is
prohibited by law) which may be required to be paid with respect to this Deed of
Trust or any instrument evidencing or securing any of the Obligations. In the
event of the enactment after this date of any law of any governmental entity
applicable to Collateral Agent, the Obligations, the Property or this Deed of
Trust imposing upon Collateral Agent the payment of the whole or any part of the
taxes or assessments or charges or liens herein required to be paid by Grantor,
or changing in any way the
-5-
laws relating to the taxation of deeds of trust or mortgages or security
agreements or debts secured by deeds of trust or mortgages or security
agreements or the interest of the mortgagee or secured party in the property
covered thereby, or the manner of collection of such taxes, so as to affect this
Deed of Trust or the Obligations or Collateral Agent, then, and in any such
event, Grantor, upon demand by Collateral Agent, shall pay such taxes,
assessments, charges or liens, or reimburse Collateral Agent therefor.
(d) Tax Escrow. In order to secure the performance and discharge of
Grantor's obligations under this Section 1.03. but not in lieu of such
obligations, and to the extent Grantor is not required to pay such sums to the
landlord under the Mortgaged Lease, Grantor, upon Collateral Agent's request
after the occurrence of and during the continuance of an Event of Default, will
pay over to Collateral Agent an amount equal to one-twelfth (1/12th) of the next
maturing annual ad valorem taxes, assessments and charges (which taxes,
assessments and charges, for purposes of this paragraph, shall include without
limitation water and sewer rents, and shall hereinafter be collectively called
"Taxes") of the nature described in Section 1.03(a) for each month that has
elapsed since the last date to which the Taxes were paid; and Grantor will, in
addition, upon Collateral Agent's request, pay over to Collateral Agent together
with each installment of the Obligations sufficient funds (as estimated from
time to time by Collateral Agent in its sole discretion) to permit Collateral
Agent to pay when due the Taxes. Upon Collateral Agent's request, Grantor shall
also deliver to Collateral Agent such additional monies as are required to make
up any deficiencies in the amounts necessary to enable Collateral Agent to pay
the Taxes. In such case, Collateral Agent must timely pay the Taxes or return
the additional monies to Grantor to allow Grantor to pay such Taxes. Such
deposits shall not be, nor be deemed to be, trust funds but may be commingled
with the general funds of Collateral Agent, and no interest shall be payable in
respect thereof. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Collateral Agent
may apply to the reduction of the Obligations secured hereby, in such manner as
Collateral Agent shall determine, any amount under this Section 1.03(d)
remaining to Grantor's credit.
(e) No Credit Against the Obligations Secured Hereby. Grantor shall not
claim, demand or be entitled to receive any credit, against the principal or
interest payable on the Obligations for so much of the Taxes assessed against
the Property of any part thereof or that are applicable to the Obligations
secured hereby or to Collateral Agent's interest in the Property. No deduction
shall be claimed from the taxable value of the Property or any part thereof by
reason of the Obligations, this Deed of Trust or any other instrument securing
the Obligations.
1.04 Insurance.
(a) Grantor shall, at its sole expense, keep the Premises insured in
such amounts and against such risks and damages as is required under Section
4.05 of the Indenture. All policies of insurance shall contain an endorsement,
in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Collateral Agent, showing loss
payable to Collateral Agent as its interests appear. Such endorsement, or an
independent instrument delivered to Collateral Agent, shall provide that the
insurance companies will give Collateral Agent at least fifteen (15) days prior
written notice before any such policy or policies of insurance shall be altered
in any way that may affect Collateral Agent's rights thereunder or cancelled and
that no act of default of Grantor or any other person shall affect the right of
Collateral Agent to recover under such policy or policies or
-6-
insurance in case of loss or damage (10 days in the case of cancellation for
non-payment of premium).
(b) In order to secure the performance and discharge of Grantor's
obligations under this Section 1.04(b). but not in lieu of such obligations and
to the extent Grantor is not required to pay such sums to the landlord under the
Mortgaged Lease, Grantor, upon Collateral Agent's request after the occurrence
of and during the continuance of an Event of Default, will pay over to
Collateral Agent an amount equal to one-twelfth (1/12th) of the next maturing
annual insurance premiums for each month that has elapsed since the last date to
which such premiums were paid; and Grantor will, in addition, upon Collateral
Agent's request, pay over to Collateral Agent together with each installment on
the Obligations sufficient funds (as estimated from time to time by Collateral
Agent in its sole discretion) to permit Collateral Agent to pay said premiums
when due. Such deposits shall not be, nor be deemed to be, trust funds but may
be commingled with the general funds of Collateral Agent, and no interest shall
be payable in respect thereof. Upon Collateral Agent's request, Grantor shall
also deliver to Collateral Agent such additional monies as are necessary to make
up any deficiencies in the amounts necessary to enable Collateral Agent to pay
such premiums when due. In such case, Collateral Agent must timely pay the
premiums or return the additional monies to Grantor to allow Grantor to pay the
premiums.
(c) Pursuant to its rights granted hereunder in all proceeds from any insurance
policies, Collateral Agent is hereby authorized and empowered at its option to
adjust or compromise any loss under any insurance policies on the Premises and
to collect and receive the proceeds from any such policy or policies. Each
insurance company is hereby authorized and directed to make payment for all such
losses directly to Collateral Agent alone and not to Grantor and Collateral
Agent jointly. After deducting from such insurance proceeds any expenses
incurred by Collateral Agent and the other Holders in the collection or handling
of such funds, the net proceeds received by Collateral Agent shall apply such
amounts as requested by Grantor for the restoration. In no event, however, shall
any advance be made which will result in the funds remaining with Collateral
Agent being less than the cost of completion of restoration of the Premises as
estimated by an architect or engineer reasonably satisfactory to Collateral
Agent. If, upon completion of restoration of the Premises there remain funds
with Collateral Agent, Collateral Agent shall pay the remaining funds. Any funds
applied against the Obligations secured hereby shall be applied to particular
Obligations, whether then matured or to mature in the future, in accordance with
the terms of the Indenture. Although Collateral Agent intends to use its best
efforts to collect such payments in a timely fashion, Collateral Agent shall not
be responsible for any failure to collect any insurance proceeds due under the
terms of any policy regardless of the cause of such failure. The provisions of
this Section 1.04 are subject to any provisions of the Mortgaged Lease
pertaining to the maintenance, collection, use and application of insurance
proceeds.
(d) Non-Impairment of Collateral Agent's Rights. Nothing contained in
either of Sections 1.03(d) and 1.04(b) shall be deemed to affect any right or
remedy of Collateral Agent under any provision of this Deed of Trust or of any
statute or rule of law to pay any amount required to be paid by Sections 1.03(d)
and 1.04(b) and to add the amount so paid to the Obligations hereby secured.
Although Collateral Agent intends to use its best efforts to make such payments
in a timely fashion, the arrangements provided in Sections 1.03(d) and 1.04(b)
are
-7-
solely for the added protection of Collateral Agent and the other Holders and
entail no responsibility on Collateral Agent's or Holders' part beyond the
allowing of due credit, without interest, for sums actually received by it. Upon
assignment of this Deed of Trust, any funds on hand shall be turned over to the
assignee and any responsibility of Collateral Agent with respect thereto shall
terminate.
1.05 Condemnation. Collateral Agent shall be entitled to all
compensation, 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 the Grantor's
name any action or proceeding relating to any condemnation and to settle or
compromise any claim in connection therewith. All such compensation, awards,
damages, claims, rights of action and proceeds, and any other payments or
relief, and the right thereto, are included in the Property and Collateral Agent
and the other Holders, after deducting therefrom all of their expenses including
reasonable attorneys' fees incurred in the collection or handling of such funds,
shall apply such amounts as requested by Grantor for the restoration of the
Premises. In no event, however, shall any advance be made which will result in
the funds remaining with Collateral Agent being less than the cost of completion
of restoration of the Premises as estimated by an architect or engineer
reasonably satisfactory to Collateral Agent. If, upon completion of restoration
of the Premises there remain funds with Collateral Agent, Collateral Agent shall
pay the remaining funds to Grantor. Grantor agrees to execute such further
assignments of any compensation, awards, damages, claims, rights of action and
proceeds as Collateral Agent may reasonably require. Notwithstanding any such
condemnation, Grantor shall continue to pay interest, computed at the rate
provided in the Notes, on the entire unpaid principal amount thereof. The
provisions of this Section 1.05 are subject to any provisions of the Mortgaged
Lease pertaining to the collection, use and application of any compensation,
awards, damages, claims, rights of action and proceeds insurance proceeds.
1.06 Care of Property.
(a) Grantor shall preserve and maintain the Property in good condition
and repair, ordinary wear and tear excepted. Grantor shall not permit, commit or
suffer any material waste, impairment or deterioration of the Property or of any
part thereof, and will not take any action which will materially increase the
risk of fire or other hazard to the Property or to any part thereof.
(b) Grantor will not, without the prior written consent of Collateral
Agent, (i) remove from the Premises any fixtures or personal property covered by
this Deed of Trust which materially impairs the value of the Property or (ii)
make any structural alteration to the Premises or any other alteration thereto
which materially impairs the value thereof.
(c) Collateral Agent may enter upon and inspect the Premises at any
reasonable time during the life of this Deed of Trust and upon reasonable prior
notice.
1.07 Further Assurances. At any time and from time to time, upon
Collateral Agent's reasonable request, Grantor shall make, execute and deliver,
or cause to be made, executed and delivered, to Collateral Agent and where
appropriate shall cause to be recorded or filed, and from time to time
thereafter to be re-recorded and refiled at such time and in such offices and
places as
-8-
shall be deemed desirable by Collateral Agent, any and all such further deeds of
trust, instruments or further assurance, certificates and other documents as
Collateral Agent may consider necessary or desirable in order to effectuate,
complete, or perfect, or to continue and preserve the respective obligations of
Borrower and Grantor under the Notes, the Indenture Documents and this Deed of
Trust, and the lien of this Deed of Trust as a lien upon all of the Property,
whether now owned or hereafter acquired by Grantor. Upon any failure by Grantor
to do so, Collateral Agent may make, execute, record, file, re-record or refile
any and all such deeds of trust, instruments, certificates and documents for and
in the name of Grantor, and Grantor hereby irrevocably appoints Collateral Agent
as the agent and attorney-in-fact of Grantor to do so.
1.08 Security Agreements and Financing Statements.
(a) Grantor (as debtor) hereby grants to Collateral Agent and Holders
(as creditor and secured party) a security interest in all fixtures, machinery,
appliances, equipment, furniture and personal property of every nature
whatsoever constituting part of the Property.
(b) Grantor shall execute any and all such documents, including without
limitation, financing statements pursuant to the applicable Uniform Commercial
Code, as Collateral Agent may reasonably request, to preserve and maintain the
priority of the lien created hereby on property which may be deemed personal
property or fixtures, and shall pay to Collateral Agent on demand any expenses
incurred by Collateral Agent and Holders in connection with the preparation,
execution and filing of any such documents. This Deed of Trust shall also
constitute a "fixture filing" for purposes of the applicable Uniform Commercial
Code. Grantor hereby authorizes and empowers Collateral Agent to execute and
file, on Grantor's behalf, all financing statements and refilings and
continuations thereof as Collateral Agent reasonably deems necessary or
advisable to create, preserve and protect said lien. This Deed of Trust shall be
deemed a security agreement as defined in said Uniform Commercial Code and the
remedies for any violation of the covenants, terms and conditions of the
agreements herein contained shall be (i) as prescribed herein, (ii) by general
law, or (iii) as to such part of the security which is also reflected in said
financing statement by the specific statutory consequences now or hereafter
enacted and specified in the Uniform Commercial Code, all at Collateral Agent's
sole election.
(c) Grantor and Collateral Agent agree that the filing of a financing
statement in the records normally having to do with personal property shall
never be construed as in any way derogating from or impairing the express
declaration and intention of the parties hereto, hereinabove stated, that
everything used in connection with the production of income from the Property
and/or adapted for use therein and/or which is described or reflected in this
Deed of Trust is, and at all times and for all purposes and in all proceedings
both legal or equitable, shall be regarded as part of the real estate encumbered
by this Deed of Trust irrespective of whether (i) any such item is physically
attached to the Improvements, (ii) serial numbers are used for the better
identification of certain equipment items capable of being thus identified in a
recital contained herein or in any list filed with Collateral Agent, or (iii)
any such item is referred to or reflected in any such financing statement so
filed at any time. Similarly, the mention in any such financing statement of (1)
rights in or to the proceeds of any fire and/or hazard insurance policy, or (2)
any award in eminent domain proceedings for a taking or for loss of value, or
(3) Grantor's interest as lessor in any present or future lease or rights to
income growing out of the use and/or
-9-
occupancy of the Property, whether pursuant to lease or otherwise, shall never
be construed as in any way altering any of the rights of Collateral Agent as
determined by this instrument or impugning the priority of the lien granted
hereby or by any other recorded document, but such mention in the financing
statement is declared to be for the protection of Holders in the event any court
or judge shall at any time hold with respect to (1), (2) and (3) that notice of
the priority of the interest of Collateral Agent and the other Holders to be
effective against a particular class of persons, including but not limited to
the federal government and any subdivisions or entity of the federal government,
must be filed in the Uniform Commercial Code records.
1.09 Assignment of Rents. The assignment contained in paragraph (E) of
this Deed of Trust shall be fully operative without any further action on the
part of either party and specifically Collateral Agent shall be entitled, at its
option, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default
hereunder, to all rents, income and other benefits from the Premises whether or
not Collateral Agent or Holders take possession of such property. Grantor hereby
further grants to Collateral Agent the right after the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default (i) to enter upon and take possession of the
Premises for the purpose of collecting the said rents, income and other
benefits, (ii) to dispossess by the usual summary ejectment proceedings any
tenant, (iii) to let the Premises or any part thereof, and (iv) to apply said
rents, income and other benefits, after payment of all necessary charges and
expenses, on account of the Obligations secured hereby. Such assignment and
grant shall continue in effect until the Obligations secured hereby are paid,
the execution of this Deed of Trust constituting and evidencing the irrevocable
consent of Grantor to the entry upon and taking possession of the Premises by
Collateral Agent pursuant, to such grant, whether or not foreclosure has been
instituted. Neither the exercise of any rights under this paragraph by
Collateral Agent nor the application of any such rents, income or other benefits
to the Obligations secured hereby, shall cure or waive any default or notice of
default hereunder or invalidate any act done pursuant hereto or to any such
notice, but shall be cumulative of all other rights and remedies. Neither this
assignment nor the receipt of rents, income and other benefits by Collateral
Agent shall effect a pro tanto payment of the indebtedness evidenced by or
arising under the obligations, and such rents shall be applied as provided in
Section 3.10 hereof.
1.10 After-Acquired Property. To the extent permitted by and subject to
applicable law, the lien of this Deed of Trust will automatically attach,
without further act, to all after-acquired property located in or on, or
attached to the Property or any part thereof.
1.11 SubLeases Affecting Encumbered Property. Grantor represents that
Grantor has delivered to Collateral Agent true, correct and complete copies of
all subleases of any portion of the Premises, that all such subleases are
presently in effect and that no default by Grantor exists in such subleases. As
any such sublease shall expire or terminate or as any new sublease shall be
made, Grantor shall so notify Collateral Agent in order that at all times
Collateral Agent shall have a current list of all subleases affecting the
Premises. The assignment contained in paragraph (F) of this Deed of Trust shall
not be deemed to impose upon Collateral Agent any of the obligations or duties
of Grantor provided in any such sublease (including, without limitation, any
liability under the covenant of quiet enjoyment contained in any sublease in the
event that any tenant shall have been joined as a party defendant in any action
to foreclose this Deed of Trust and shall have been barred and foreclosed
thereby of all right, title and interest and equity of redemption in the
Property or any part thereof), and Grantor shall comply with and observe its
-10-
obligations in all material respects as landlord under all subleases affecting
the Property or any part thereof. Grantor, if required by Collateral Agent,
shall furnish promptly to Collateral Agent original or certified copies of all
such subleases now existing or hereafter created. Grantor shall not, without the
express prior written consent of Collateral Agent, enter into any sublease
affecting the Property, or amend, modify, extend, terminate or cancel, accept
the surrender of, subordinate, accelerate the payment of rent as to, or change
the terms of any renewal option of any such sublease now existing or hereafter
created, or permit or suffer an assignment or sublease. Grantor shall not accept
payment of rent more than one (1) month in advance without the prior written
consent of Collateral Agent.
With respect to the assignment contained in paragraph (F) of this Deed
of Trust, Grantor shall, from time to time upon request of Collateral Agent,
specifically assign to Collateral Agent as additional security hereunder, by an
instrument in writing in such form as may be approved by Collateral Agent in its
reasonable discretion, all right, title and interest of Grantor in and to any
and all subleases now or hereafter on or affecting the Property, together with
all security therefor and all monies payable thereunder, subject to the
conditional permission hereinabove given to Grantor to collect the rentals under
any such sublease. Grantor shall also execute and deliver to Collateral Agent
any notification, financing statement or other document reasonably required by
Collateral Agent to perfect the foregoing assignment as to any such sublease.
The provisions of this Section 1.12 shall be subject to the provisions of
paragraph (E).
1.12 Collateral Agent's Performance of Defaults. If Grantor defaults in
the payment of any tax, assessment, encumbrance or other imposition, in its
obligation to furnish insurance hereunder, or in the performance or observance
of any other covenant, condition or term in this Deed of Trust, the Indenture
Documents or the Notes, Collateral Agent may, to preserve its interest in the
Property, perform or observe the same, and all payments made (whether such
payments are regular or accelerated payments) and costs and expenses incurred or
paid by Collateral Agent in connection therewith shall become due and payable
immediately. The amounts so incurred or paid by Collateral Agent together with
interest thereon at the rate per annum specified in Section 2.13 of the
Indenture from the date incurred until paid by Grantor, shall be added to the
Obligations and secured by the lien of this Deed of Trust. Collateral Agent is
hereby empowered to enter and authorize others to enter upon the Premises or any
part thereof for the purposes of performing or observing any such defaulted
covenant, condition or term, without thereby becoming liable to Grantor or any
person in possession holding under Grantor.
1.13 Use of Property. Grantor covenants that the Property will be used
for the purposes set forth in the Mortgaged Lease.
1.14 Required Notices. Grantor shall notify Collateral Agent promptly
of the occurrence of any of the following: (i) receipt of any material notice
from any governmental authority relating to the Property; (ii) receipt of any
material notice from any tenant leasing all or any portion of the Premises;
(iii) any material change in the occupancy of the Premises; (iv) receipt of any
material notice from the holder of any lien or security interest in the
Property; or (v) commencement of any judicial or administrative proceedings by
or against or otherwise affecting the Property.
-11-
1.15 Covenants Regarding Mortgaged Lease.
(a) Grantor hereby warrants and represents as follows: (i) the
Mortgaged Lease is in full force and effect, and, except as disclosed in writing
to Collateral Agent, unmodified by any writing or otherwise; (ii) all rent and
other charges and impositions reserved therein have been paid to the extent they
are payable to the date hereof; (iii) Grantor enjoys the quiet and peaceful
possession of the Premises demised thereby; (iv) Grantor is not in default under
any of the terms thereof, there are no circumstances which, with the passage of
time or the giving of notice or both, would constitute an event of default
thereunder; and (v) the landlord under the Mortgaged Lease is not in default
under any of the terms or provisions thereof on the part of the landlord to be
observed or performed.
(b) Further, with respect to the Mortgaged Lease, Grantor covenants and
agrees as follows: (i) to promptly and faithfully observe, perform and comply
with all of the material terms, covenants and provisions thereof on its part to
be observed, performed and complied with, at all times set forth therein; (ii)
not to do, permit, suffer or refrain from doing anything, as a result of which,
there would be a default under or a breach of any of the terms thereof; (iii)
not to cancel, surrender, modify, amend or in any way alter or permit the
alteration of any of the material terms of the Mortgaged Lease; (iv) to give the
Collateral Agent immediate notice of any default by anyone thereunder and to
promptly deliver to the Collateral Agent a copy of each notice of default
received or delivered by Grantor in connection therewith; (v) to furnish to the
Collateral Agent copies of such information and evidence as the Collateral Agent
may reasonably require concerning Grantor's due observance, performance and
compliance with the terms, covenants and provisions thereof; and (vi) that any
default of Grantor under the Mortgaged Lease shall constitute an additional
Event of Default under this Mortgage.
(c) In the event of any default by Grantor in the performance of any of
its obligations under the Mortgaged Lease, including, without limitation, any
default in the payment of rent and other charges and impositions made payable by
the lessee thereunder, then, in each and every case, Collateral Agent may, at
its option and without notice, cause the default or defaults to be remedied and
otherwise exercise any and all of the rights of Grantor therein in the name of
and on behalf of Grantor. Grantor shall, on demand, reimburse Collateral Agent,
as applicable, for all advances made and expenses incurred by Collateral Agent
in curing any such default (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys'
fees).
(e) It is hereby agreed that the fee title and the leasehold estate in
the property demised by the Mortgaged Lease shall not merge but shall always be
kept separate and distinct, notwithstanding the union of said estates in Grantor
or a third party whether by purchase or otherwise. If Grantor acquires the fee
title or any other estate, title or interest in the property demised by the
Mortgaged Lease, or any part thereof, the lien of the Mortgage shall attach to,
cover and be a lien upon such acquired estate, title or interest and the same
shall thereupon be and become a part of the Mortgaged Property with the same
force and effect as if specifically encumbered therein. Grantor agrees to
execute all instruments and documents which Collateral Agent may reasonably
require to ratify, confirm and further evidence Collateral Agent's lien on the
acquired estate, title or interest. Furthermore, Grantor hereby appoints
Collateral Agent its true and lawful attorney-in-fact to execute and deliver all
such instruments and documents in the name and on behalf of Grantor.
-12-
(f) If the Mortgaged Lease is cancelled or terminated, and if
Collateral Agent or a nominee of Collateral Agent shall enter into any new lease
of the property demised thereby, Grantor shall have no right, title or interest
in or to the new lease or the leasehold estate created by such new lease.
(g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, this
Mortgage shall not constitute an assignment of the Mortgaged Lease within the
meaning of any provisions thereof prohibiting their assignment, and Collateral
Agent, as applicable, shall have no liability or obligation thereunder by reason
of its acceptance of this Mortgage. Collateral Agent, as applicable, shall be
liable for the obligations of the lessee arising under the Mortgaged Lease for
only that period of time which Collateral Agent is in possession of the
Mortgaged Property or has acquired, by foreclosure or otherwise, and is holding
all of Grantor's right, title and interest therein.
(h) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, and in
addition to any rights, privileges and remedies granted to Collateral Agent
elsewhere in this Mortgage, Collateral Agent shall have, and Grantor hereby
grants to Collateral Agent, any and all rights, privileges and remedies of
leasehold lenders provided for in the Mortgaged Lease without the necessity of
particularly specifying any or all of such rights, privileges and remedies that
are or could be granted to leasehold Collateral Agents pursuant to the Mortgaged
Lease.
(i) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, to the
extent the any of the covenants and obligations of Grantor hereunder, or any of
the rights granted to Collateral Agent hereunder, conflict with the provisions
of the Mortgaged Lease, the provisions of the Mortgaged Lease shall control, and
Grantor shall not be required to take any action hereunder nor shall Collateral
Agent be entitled to exercise any rights hereunder that are not permitted under
the provisions of the Mortgaged Lease.
1.16 Future Indebtedness of Grantor. The lien of this Deed of Trust
secures, as of the date hereof, without further act, all Obligations of Borrower
and Grantor to Collateral Agent and the other Holders, including any and all
future loans and advances made by Collateral Agent and the other Holders
pursuant to the Indenture to or for the benefit of Borrower or Grantor from time
to time hereafter.
ARTICLE TWO
DEFAULTS
2.01 Event of Default. The term "Event of Default", wherever used in
this Deed of Trust, shall mean the occurrence of an "Event of Default" as such
term is defined in Section 6.01 of the Indenture.
ARTICLE THREE
REMEDIES
3.01 Acceleration of Maturity. If an Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing, then all of the Obligations secured hereby shall, at
Collateral Agent's option,
-13-
immediately become due and payable without notice or demand, time being of the
essence hereof; and no omission on the part of Collateral Agent to exercise such
option when entitled to do so shall be construed as a waiver of such right,
provided that upon an Event of Default under clauses (7) or (8) of the
definition of "Event of Default" in Section 6.01 of the Indenture, all
Obligations shall immediately become due and payable.
3.02 Collateral Agent's Power of Enforcement. If an Event of Default
shall have occurred and be continuing, Collateral Agent may, either with or
without entry or taking possession as hereinabove provided or otherwise, and
without regard to whether or not the Obligations shall be due and without
prejudice to the right of Collateral Agent or Holders thereafter to bring an
action of foreclosure or any other action for any default existing at the time
such earlier action was commenced, proceed by any appropriate action or
proceeding: (a) to enforce payment of the Obligations or the performance of any
term hereof or any other right; (b) to foreclose this Deed of Trust and to sell,
as an entirety or in separate lots or parcels, the Property under the power of
sale hereinafter provided or the judgment or decree of a court or courts of
competent jurisdiction; and (c) to pursue any other remedy available to it.
Collateral Agent shall take action either by such proceedings or by the exercise
of its power with respect to entry or taking possession, or both, as Collateral
Agent may determine.
3.03 Collateral Agent's Right to Enter and Take Possession, Operate and
Apply Income.
(a) If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, (i)
Grantor upon demand of Collateral Agent shall forthwith surrender to Collateral
Agent the actual possession and if and to the extent permitted by law,
Collateral Agent itself, or by such officers or agents as it may appoint, may
enter upon and take possession of the Property and may exclude Grantor and its
agents and employees wholly therefrom and may have joint access with Grantor to
the books, papers and accounts of Grantor; and (ii) Grantor will pay monthly in
advance to Collateral Agent on Collateral Agent's entry into possession, or to
any receiver appointed to collect the rents, income and other benefits of the
Property, the fair and reasonable rental value for the use and occupation of
such part of the Property as may be in possession of Grantor, and upon default
in any such payment will vacate and surrender possession of such part of the
Property to Collateral Agent or to such receiver and, in default thereof,
Grantor may be evicted by summary proceedings or otherwise.
(b) If Grantor shall for any reason fail to surrender or deliver the
Property or any part thereof after Collateral Agent's demand, Collateral Agent
may obtain a judgment or decree, on behalf of all of the Holders, conferring on
Collateral Agent the right to immediate possession or requiring Grantor to
deliver immediate possession of all or part of the Property to Collateral Agent,
to the entry of which judgment or decree Grantor hereby specifically consents.
Grantor shall pay to Collateral Agent, upon demand, all reasonable costs and
expenses of obtaining such judgment or decree and compensation to Collateral
Agent and the other Holders, its attorneys and agents, and all such costs,
expenses and compensation shall, until paid, be secured by the lien of this Deed
of Trust.
-14-
(c) Upon every such entering upon or taking of possession of the
Property under this Section 3.03, Collateral Agent may hold, store, use,
operate, manage and control the Property and conduct the business thereof, and,
from time to time:
(i) Make all necessary and proper maintenance, repairs,
renewals, replacements, additions, betterments and improvements thereto
and thereon and purchase or otherwise acquire additional fixtures,
personalty and other property;
(ii) Insure or keep the Property insured;
(iii) Manage and operate the Property and exercise all the
rights and powers of Grantor in its name or otherwise with respect to
the same;
(iv) Enter into agreements with others to exercise the powers
herein granted Collateral Agent, all as Collateral Agent from time to
time may determine; and Collateral Agent may collect and receive all
the rents, income and other benefits thereof, including those past due
as well as those accruing thereafter; and shall apply the monies so
received by Collateral Agent in such priority as Collateral Agent may
determine to (1) the payment of the Obligations; (2) the deposits for
taxes and assessments and insurance premiums due; (3) the cost of
insurance, taxes, assessments and proper charges upon the Property or
any part thereof; (4) the expenses of operating, maintaining, repairing
and improving the Property, including with limitation renting
commissions and rental collection commissions paid to Collateral Agent
or agent on behalf of Collateral Agent and the other Holders or of the
receiver; and (5) the reasonable compensation, expenses and
disbursements of the agents, attorneys and other representatives of
Collateral Agent. All costs, expenses and liabilities of every
character incurred by Collateral Agent in managing, operating and
maintaining the Property shall constitute additional Obligations
secured hereby. While in possession of the Property, Collateral Agent
or the receiver shall be liable to account only for the rents, issues
and profits actually received.
Collateral Agent shall surrender possession of the Property to Grantor only when
all Obligations secured hereby and all amounts under any of the terms of this
Deed of Trust shall have been paid and all defaults cured or waived. The same
right of taking possession, however, shall exist if any subsequent Event of
Default shall occur and be continuing.
3.04 Foreclosure.
(a) If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing,
Trustee, shall, upon being so requested to do by Collateral Agent, sell any or
all of the Property at public auction for cash, on the premises or at the
courthouse door in the county in which the Property is located, having first
given notice of the time and place of such sale in accordance with the statute
in such case provided, and convey the Property so sold to the purchaser in fee.
Out of the proceeds of said sale, Trustee shall pay: all costs, charges,
expenses, commissions, unpaid taxes, and fees of advertising, selling and
conveying the Property and such other assessments, insurance or other fees or
costs as may have been incurred; a reasonable fee not exceeding five percent
(5%) of the gross proceeds of sale to Trustee, or his successor, in payment of
his services hereunder and of collecting the monies secured by this Deed of
Trust; a sum sufficient to pay the entire balance
-15-
owing on the Obligations secured hereby; and the surplus, if any, to Grantor or
the person entitled thereto.
(b) Should Collateral Agent have elected to accelerate the indebtedness
secured hereby, Collateral Agent may initiate foreclosure of the Property by
requesting the Trustee to effectuate a non-judicial foreclosure sale. The
Trustee of this Deed of Trust shall then sell, or offer for sale, the Property
at public sale to the highest bidder for cash during a three hour period between
the hours of ten o'clock a.m. and four o'clock p.m. whose earliest point in time
is specified, on the first Tuesday of any month, at the area officially
designated for holding such sales at the courthouse of any county in the State
of Texas in which any part of the Property is situated, after having given
notice of the date, the time period, place and terms of said sale in accordance
with the laws of the State of Texas then in force and governing said sales of
real property and improvements under powers conferred by deeds of trust. The
Property shall be sold by posting, or causing to be posted, at least twenty-one
(21) consecutive days prior to the date of said sale, written or printed notice
thereof at the courthouse door in each of the counties in which the Property is
situated, designating the county where the Property will be sold and designating
the date, the time period, the place and the terms of sale. A copy of such
notice shall also be filed in the office of the County Clerk in each county of
the State of Texas in which any part of the Premises is situated at least
twenty-one (21) consecutive days before the date of said sale of the Property.
Collateral Agent or other holders of the indebtedness secured hereby shall have
the right to become the purchaser at any sale held by any Trustee or substitute
or successor Trustee, or by any receiver or public officer. Any Holder
purchasing at any such sale shall have the right to credit the secured
indebtedness owing to such Holder upon the amount of its bid entered at such
sale to the extent necessary to satisfy such bid. Said Trustee may appoint an
attorney-in-fact to act in its stead as Trustee to conduct sale as hereinbefore
provided. Grantor authorizes and empowers the Trustee to sell the Property, in
lots or parcels or as a whole, by one sale or by several sales, held at one time
or at different times as the Trustee may elect (all rights to a marshaling of
the Property, or to a sale in inverse order of alienation, being hereby
expressly waived by Grantor) and to execute and deliver to the purchaser or
purchasers thereof good and sufficient deeds of conveyance thereto of the estate
of title then existing on the Property and bills of sale with covenants of
general warranty. Grantor binds itself to warrant and forever defend the title
of such purchaser or purchasers when so made by the Trustee, and agrees to
accept proceeds of said sale, if any, which are payable to Grantor as provided
herein. In addition to the posting and filing of notices hereinabove provided,
and for so long as required by law, no foreclosure under the power of sale
herein contained shall be held unless Collateral Agent, at least twenty-one (21)
days preceding the date of sale and in the manner prescribed by law, shall have
served written notice of the proposed sale which designates the County where the
Property will be sold and designates the date, time period, the place and the
terms of sale by certified mail on Grantor. Service of such a notice by
certified mail shall be completed upon deposit of such notice, postage prepaid
and properly addressed to each such person or entity at the address for Grantor
indicated on the first page of this Deed of Trust, in a Post Office of the
United States Postal Service or in an official depository under the care and
custody of the United States Postal Service. The affidavit of a person
knowledgeable of the facts to the effect that such service was completed shall
be prima facie evidence of the fact of service.
3.05 Leases. Trustee, at Collateral Agent's option, is authorized to
foreclose this Deed of Trust subject to the rights of any tenants of the
Property, and the failure to make any such
-16-
tenants parties defendant to any such foreclosure proceedings and to foreclose
their rights will not be, nor be asserted by Grantor to be, a defense to any
proceedings instituted by Collateral Agent to collect the sums secured hereby or
to collect any deficiency remaining unpaid after the foreclosure sale of the
Property.
3.06 Waiver of Appraisement, Valuation, Stay, Extension and Redemption
Laws. Grantor agrees to the full extent permitted by law that in case of a
default in its part hereunder, neither Grantor nor anyone claiming through or
under Grantor shall or will set up, claim or seek to take advantage of any
appraisement, valuation, extension or redemption laws now or hereafter in force,
in order to prevent or hinder the enforcement or foreclosure of this Deed of
Trust or the absolute sale of the Property or the final and absolute putting
into possession thereof, immediately after such sale, of the purchasers thereat,
and Grantor, for itself and all who may at any time claim through or under
Grantor, hereby waives, to the full extent that Grantor may lawfully so do, the
benefit of all such laws, and any and all right to have the assets comprising
the Property marshaled upon any foreclosure of the lien hereof and agrees that
Trustee or any court having jurisdiction to foreclose such lien may sell the
Property in part or as an entirety.
3.07 Receiver. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, Collateral Agent, to the extent permitted by law and without regard
to the value or adequacy of the security for the Obligations secured hereby,
shall be entitled as a matter of right if it so elects to the appointment of a
receiver to enter upon and take possession of the Property and to collect all
rents, income and other benefits thereof and apply the same as the court may
direct, and any such receiver shall be entitled to hold, store, use, operate,
manage and control the Property and conduct the business thereof as would
Collateral Agent pursuant to Section 3.03(c) above. The expenses, including
receiver's fees, reasonable attorney's fees, costs and agent's compensation,
incurred pursuant to the powers herein contained shall be secured by this Deed
of Trust. The right to enter and take possession of and to manage and operate
the Property and to collect all rents, income and other benefits thereof,
whether by a receiver or otherwise, shall be cumulative to any other right or
remedy hereunder or afforded by law and may be exercised concurrently therewith
or independently thereof. Collateral Agent shall be liable to account only for
such rents, income and other benefits actually received by Collateral Agent,
whether received pursuant to this paragraph or Section 3.03. Notwithstanding the
appointment of any receiver or other custodian, Collateral Agent shall be
entitled as pledgee to the possession and control of any cash, deposit, or
instruments at the time held by, or payable or deliverable under the terms of
this Deed of Trust to, Collateral Agent.
3.08 Suits to Protect the Property. Collateral Agent shall have the
power and authority to institute and maintain any suits and proceedings as
Collateral Agent may deem advisable (a) to prevent any impairment of the
Property by any acts which may be unlawful or any violation of this Deed of
Trust, (b) to preserve or protect its interest in the Property, and (c) to
restrain the enforcement of or compliance with any legislation or other
government enactment, rule or order that may be unconstitutional or otherwise
invalid, if the enforcement or compliance with such enactment, rule or order
might impair the security hereunder or be prejudicial to Collateral Agent's or
Holders' interest.
3.9 Proofs of Claim. In the case of any receivership, insolvency,
bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other
judicial proceedings affecting
-17-
Grantor or any guarantor, co-maker or endorser of any Grantor's obligations, its
creditors or its property, Collateral Agent, to the extent permitted by law,
shall be entitled to file such proofs of claim and other documents as may be
necessary or advisable in order to have its claims allowed in such proceedings
for the entire amount due and payable by Borrower or Grantor under this Deed of
Trust, the Indenture, the Indenture Documents and any other instrument securing
the Obligations, at the date of the institution of such proceedings, and for any
additional amounts which may become due and payable by Borrower or Grantor after
such date.
3.10 Application of Monies by Collateral Agent.
(a) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of
Default, Collateral Agent shall be entitled to ▇▇▇ for and to recover judgment
against Borrower and/or Grantor for the whole amount of the Obligations due and
unpaid together with costs and expenses, including without limitation, the
reasonable compensation, expenses and disbursements of Collateral Agent's and
Holders' agents, attorneys and other representatives, either before, after or
during the pendency of any proceedings for the enforcement of this Deed of
Trust, and the right of Collateral Agent to recover such judgment shall not be
affected by any taking possession or foreclosure sale hereunder, or by the
exercise of any other right, power or remedy for the enforcement of the terms of
this Deed of Trust, or the foreclosure of the lien hereof.
(b) In case of a foreclosure sale of all or any part of the Property
and the application of the proceeds of sale to the payment of the Obligations
secured hereby, Collateral Agent shall be entitled to enforce payment from
Grantor of all Obligations then remaining due and unpaid and to recover judgment
against Borrower and/or Grantor for any portion thereof remaining unpaid, with
interest.
(c) Grantor hereby agrees, to the extent permitted by law, that no
recovery of any such judgment by Collateral Agent and no attachment or levy of
any execution upon any of the Property or any other property shall in any way
affect the lien of this Deed of Trust upon the Property or any part thereof or
any lien, rights, powers or remedies of Holders hereunder, but such lien,
rights, powers and remedies shall continue unimpaired as before.
(d) Any monies collected or received by Collateral Agent under this
Section 3.10 shall be applied to the payment of reasonable compensation,
expenses and disbursements of the agents, attorneys, and other representatives
of Collateral Agent, and the balance remaining shall be applied to the payment
of the Obligations secured hereby.
(e) The provisions of this paragraph shall not be deemed to limit or
otherwise modify the provisions of any guaranty of the Obligations of Guarantor
to Collateral Agent.
3.11 Delay or Omission; No Waiver. No delay or omission of Collateral
Agent 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 such Event of Default or to constitute acquiescence therein. Every
right, power and remedy given to Collateral Agent may be exercised from time to
time and as often as may be deemed expedient by Collateral Agent.
-18-
3.12 No Waiver of One Default to Affect Another. No waiver of any Event
of Default hereunder shall extend to or affect any subsequent or any other Event
of Default then existing, or impair any rights, powers or remedies consequent
thereon. If Collateral Agent (a) grants forbearance or an extension of time for
the payment of any Obligations secured hereby; (b) takes other or additional
security for the payment thereof; (c) waives or does not exercise any right
granted in the Indenture; (d) releases any part of the Property from the lien of
this Deed of Trust; (e) consents to the filing of any map, plat or replat of the
Land; (f) consents to the granting of any easement on the Land; or (g) makes or
consents to any agreement changing the terms of this Deed of Trust or
subordinating the lien or any charge hereof, no such act or omission shall
release, discharge, modify, change or affect the Obligations of Grantor. No such
act or omission shall preclude Collateral Agent or Holders from exercising any
right, power or privilege herein granted or intended to be granted in case of
any Event of Default then existing or of any subsequent Event of Default nor
shall the lien of this Deed of Trust be affected thereby.
3.13 Discontinuance of Proceedings; Position of Parties Restored. If
Trustee or Collateral Agent or Holders shall have proceeded to enforce any right
or remedy under this Deed of Trust by foreclosure, entry or otherwise and such
proceedings shall have been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or such
proceedings shall have resulted in a final determination adverse to Collateral
Agent or Holders, then and in every such case Grantor and Collateral Agent shall
be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder, and all rights,
powers and remedies of Collateral Agent shall continue as if no such proceedings
had occurred or had been taken.
3.14 Remedies Cumulative. No right, power or remedy conferred upon or
reserved to Collateral Agent by this Deed of Trust or the Notes 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 under the Notes, or now or hereafter existing at
law, in equity or by statute.

Collateral Agent then, at Collateral Agent's option, Collateral Agent may
