1.2      Defense of Title.

document or instrument is superior or subordinate to this Deed of Trust.

 

1.4       Insurance. Grantor shall, at Grantor’s expense, maintain in force and effect on the Property at all times while this Deed of Trust continues in effect the following insurance:

 

(a)       Insurance against loss or damage to the Property by fire, windstorm, tornado and hail and against loss and damage by such other, further and additional risks as may be now or hereafter embraced by an “all-risk” or “special form” type of insurance policy. The amount of such insurance shall be not less than one hundred percent (100%) of the full replacement cost (insurable value) of the Improvements (as established by an MAI appraisal), without reduction for depreciation. The determination of the replacement cost amount shall be adjusted annually to comply with the requirements of the insurer issuing such coverage or, at Beneficiary’s election, by reference to such indices, appraisals or information as Beneficiary determines in its reasonable discretion in order to reflect increased value due to inflation. Absent such annual adjustment, each policy shall contain inflation guard coverage insuring that the policy limit will be increased over time to reflect the effect of inflation. Full replacement cost, as used herein, means, with respect to the Improvements, the cost of replacing the Improvements without regard to deduction for depreciation, exclusive of the cost of excavations, foundations and footings below the lowest basement floor. Grantor shall also maintain insurance against loss or damage to furniture, furnishing, fixtures, equipment and other items (whether personalty or fixtures) included in the Property and owned by Grantor from time to time to the extent applicable. Each policy shall contain a replacement cost endorsement and either an agreed amount endorsement (to avoid the operation of any co-insurance provisions) or a waiver of any co-insurance provisions, all subject to Beneficiary’s approval. The maximum deductible shall be $10,000.00.

 

(b)       Commercial General Liability Insurance against claims for personal injury, bodily injury, death and property damage occurring on, in or about the Real Estate or the Improvements in amounts not less than $1,000,000.00 per occurrence and $2,000,000.00 in the aggregate plus umbrella coverage in an amount not less than $2,000,000. Beneficiary hereby retains the right to periodically review the amount of said liability insurance being maintained by Grantor and to require an increase in the amount of said liability insurance should Beneficiary deem an increase to be reasonably prudent under then existing circumstances.

 

(c)        Boiler and machinery insurance is required if steam boilers or other pressure-fired vessels are in operation at the Property. Minimum liability coverage per accident must equal the greater of the replacement cost (insurable value) of the Improvements housing such boiler or pressure-fired machinery or $2,000,000.00. If one or more large (i.e., greater than twenty (20) tons) HVAC units is in operation at the Property, “Systems Breakdowns” coverage shall be required, as

 

 

- 10 -

 


determined by Beneficiary. Minimum liability coverage per accident must equal the value of such unit(s).

 

(d)        If the Improvements or any part thereof is situated in an area designated by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (“FEMA”) as a special flood hazard area (Zone A or Zone V), flood insurance in an amount equal to the lesser of: (a) the minimum amount required, under the terms of coverage, to compensate for any damage or loss on a replacement basis (or the unpaid balance of the indebtedness secured hereby if replacement cost coverage is not available for the type of building insured); or (b) the maximum insurance available under the appropriate National Flood Insurance Administration program. The maximum deductible shall be $3,000.00 per building or a higher minimum amount as required by FEMA or other applicable law.

 

(e)       During the period of any construction, renovation or alteration of the existing Improvements which exceeds the lesser of 10% of the principal amount of the Note or $500,000, at Beneficiary’s request, a completed value, “All Risk” Builder’s Risk form or “Course of Construction” insurance policy in nonreporting form, in an amount approved by Beneficiary, may be required. During the period of any construction of any addition to the existing Improvements, a completed value, “All Risk” Builder’s Risk form or “Course of Construction” insurance policy in non-reporting form, in an amount approved by Beneficiary, shall be required.

 

(f)        When required by applicable law, ordinance or other regulation, Worker’s Compensation and Employer’s Liability Insurance covering all persons subject to the worker’s compensation laws of the state in which the Property is located.

 

(g)       Business income (loss of rents) insurance in amounts sufficient to compensate Grantor for all Rents and Profits or income during a period of not less than eighteen (18) months. The amount of coverage shall be adjusted annually to reflect the Rents and Profits or income payable during the succeeding eighteen (18) month period.

 

(h)        Such other insurance on the Property or on any replacements or substitutions thereof or additions thereto as may from time to time be required by Beneficiary against other insurable hazards or casualties which at the time are commonly insured against in the case of property similarly situated including, without limitation, Sinkhole, Mine Subsidence, Earthquake and Environmental insurance, due regard being given to the height and type of buildings, their construction, location, use and occupancy.

 

All such insurance shall (i) be with insurers fully licensed and authorized to do business in the state within which the Premises is located and who

 

 

- 11 -

 


have and maintain a rating of at least from AA from Standard & Poor’s, (ii) contain the complete address of the Premises (or a complete legal description), (iii) be for terms of at least one year, with premium prepaid, and (vi) be subject to the approval of Beneficiary as to insurance companies, amounts, content, forms of policies, method by which premiums are paid and expiration dates, and (v) include a standard, non-contributory, mortgagee clause naming EXACTLY:

 

First Union National Bank,

its successors and assigns ATIMA

c/o First Union Mortgage Corporation

P.O. Box 20068

Charlotte, North Carolina 28202

 

(a)       as an additional insured under all liability insurance policies, (b) as the first mortgagee on all property insurance policies and (c) as the loss payee on all loss of rents or loss of business income insurance policies.

 

Grantor shall, as of the date hereof, deliver to Beneficiary evidence that said insurance policies have been prepaid as required above and certified copies of such insurance policies and original certificates of insurance signed by an authorized agent of the applicable insurance companies evidencing such insurance satisfactory to Beneficiary. Grantor shall renew all such insurance and deliver to Beneficiary certificates and policies evidencing such renewals at least thirty (30) days before any such insurance shall expire. Grantor further agrees that each such insurance policy: (i) shall provide for at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to Beneficiary prior to any policy reduction or cancellation for any reason other than non-payment of premium and at least ten (10) days’ prior written notice to Beneficiary prior to any cancellation due to non-payment of premium; (ii) shall contain an endorsement or agreement by the insurer that any loss shall be payable to Beneficiary in accordance with the terms of such policy notwithstanding any act or negligence of Grantor which might otherwise result in forfeiture of such insurance; (iii) shall waive all rights of subrogation against Beneficiary; (iv) in the event that the Real Estate or the Improvements constitutes a legal non-conforming use under applicable building, zoning or land use laws or ordinances, shall include an ordinance or law coverage endorsement which will contain Coverage A: “Loss Due to Operation of Law” (with a minimum liability limit equal to Replacement Cost With Agreed Value Endorsement), Coverage B: “Demolition Cost” and Coverage C: “Increased Cost of Construction” coverages; and (v) may be in the form of a blanket policy provided that, in the event that any such coverage is provided in the form of a blanket policy, Grantor hereby acknowledges and agrees that failure to pay any portion of the premium therefor which is not allocable to the Property or by any other action not relating to the Property which would otherwise permit the issuer thereof to cancel the coverage thereof, would require the Property to be insured by a separate, single-property policy. The blanket policy must properly identify and fully protect the Property as if a separate policy were issued for 100% of Replacement Cost at the time

of loss and otherwise meet all of Beneficiary’s applicable insurance requirements set forth in this Section 1.4. The delivery to Beneficiary of the insurance policies or the certificates of insurance as provided above shall constitute an assignment of all proceeds payable under such insurance policies relating to the Property by Grantor to Beneficiary as further security for the indebtedness secured hereby. In the event of foreclosure of this Deed of Trust, or other transfer of title to the Property in extinguishment in whole or in part of the indebtedness secured hereby, all right, title and interest of Grantor in and to all proceeds payable under such policies then in force concerning the Property shall thereupon vest in the purchaser at such foreclosure, or in Beneficiary or other transferee in the event of such other transfer of title. Approval of any insurance by Beneficiary shall not be a representation of the solvency of any insurer or the sufficiency of any amount of insurance. In the event Grantor fails to provide, maintain, keep in force or deliver and furnish to Beneficiary the policies of insurance required by this Deed of Trust or evidence of their renewal as required herein, Beneficiary may, but shall not be obligated to, procure such insurance and Grantor shall pay all amounts advanced by Beneficiary therefor, together with interest thereon at the Default Interest Rate from and after the date advanced by Beneficiary until actually repaid by Grantor, promptly upon demand by Beneficiary. Any amounts so advanced by Beneficiary, together with interest thereon, shall be secured by this Deed of Trust and by all of the other Loan Documents securing all or any part of the indebtedness secured hereby. Beneficiary shall not be responsible for nor incur any liability for the insolvency of the insurer or other failure of the insurer to perform, even though Beneficiary has caused the insurance to be placed with the insurer after failure of Grantor to furnish such insurance. Grantor shall not obtain insurance for the Property in addition to that required by Beneficiary without the prior written consent of Beneficiary, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld provided that (i) Beneficiary is a named insured on such insurance, (ii) Beneficiary receives complete copies of all policies evidencing such insurance, and (iii) such insurance complies with all of the applicable requirements set forth herein.

 

1.5      Payment of Taxes. Grantor shall pay or cause to be paid, except to the extent provision is actually made therefor pursuant to Section 1.6 of this Deed of Trust, all taxes and assessments which are or may become a lien on the Property or which are assessed against or imposed upon the Property. Grantor shall furnish Beneficiary with receipts (or if receipts are not immediately available, with copies of canceled checks evidencing payment with receipts to follow promptly after they become available) showing payment of such taxes and assessments at least fifteen (15) days prior to the applicable delinquency date therefor. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Grantor may in good faith, by appropriate proceedings and upon notice to Beneficiary, contest the validity, applicability or amount of any asserted tax or assessment so long as (a) such contest is diligently pursued, (b) Beneficiary determines, in its subjective opinion, that such contest suspends the obligation to pay the tax and that nonpayment of such tax or assessment will not result in the sale, loss, forfeiture or diminution of the Property or any part thereof or any interest of Beneficiary therein, and (c) prior to the earlier of the commencement of such contest

 

 

- 13 -

 


or the delinquency date of the asserted tax or assessment, Grantor deposits in the Impound Account (as hereinafter defined) an amount determined by Beneficiary to be adequate to cover the payment of such tax or assessment and a reasonable additional sum to cover possible interest, costs and penalties; provided, however, that Grantor shall promptly cause to be paid any amount adjudged by a court of competent jurisdiction to be due, with all interest, costs and penalties thereon, promptly after such judgment becomes final; and provided further that in any event each such contest shall be concluded and the taxes, assessments, interest, costs and penalties shall be paid prior to the date any writ or order is issued under which the Property may be sold, lost or forfeited.

 

1.6      Tax and Insurance Impound Account. Grantor shall establish and maintain at all times while this Deed of Trust continues in effect an impound account (the “Impound Account”) with Beneficiary for payment of real estate taxes and assessments and insurance on the Property and as additional security for the indebtedness secured hereby. Simultaneously with the execution hereof, Grantor shall deposit in the Impound Account an amount determined by Beneficiary to be necessary to ensure that there will be on deposit with Beneficiary an amount which, when added to the monthly payments subsequently required to be deposited with Beneficiary hereunder on account of real estate taxes, assessments and insurance premiums, will result in there being on deposit with Beneficiary in the Impound Account an amount sufficient to pay the next due installment of real estate taxes and assessment on the Property at least one (1) month prior to the due date thereof and the next due annual insurance premiums with respect to the Property at least one (1) month prior to the due date thereof (if paid in one installment). Commencing on the first monthly payment date under the Note and continuing thereafter on each monthly payment date under the Note, Grantor shall pay to Beneficiary, concurrently with and in addition to the monthly payment due under the Note and until the Note and all other indebtedness secured hereby is fully paid and performed, deposits in an amount equal to one-twelfth (1/12) of the amount of the annual real estate taxes and assessments that will next become due and payable on the Property, plus one-twelfth (1/12) of the amount of the annual premiums that will next become due and payable on insurance policies which Grantor is required to maintain hereunder, each as estimated and determined by Beneficiary. So long as no Event of Default (as hereinafter defined), or event which with the passage of time, the giving of notice, or both, would constitute an Event of Default (a “Default”) hereunder or under the other Loan Documents has occurred and is continuing, all sums in the Impound Account shall be held by Beneficiary in the Impound Account to pay said taxes, assessments and insurance premiums before the same become delinquent. Grantor shall be responsible for ensuring the receipt by Beneficiary, at least thirty (30) days prior to the respective due date for payment thereof, of all bills, invoices and statements for all taxes, assessments and insurance premiums to be paid from the Impound Account, and so long as no Default or Event of Default hereunder or under the other Loan Documents has occurred and is continuing, Beneficiary shall pay the governmental authority or other party entitled thereto directly to the extent funds are available for

 

 

- 14 -

 


such purpose in the Impound Account. In making any payment from the Impound Account, Beneficiary shall be entitled to rely on any bill, statement or estimate procured from the appropriate public office or insurance company or agent without any inquiry into the accuracy of such bill, statement or estimate and without any inquiry into the accuracy, validity, enforceability or contestability of any tax, assessment, valuation, sale, forfeiture, tax lien or title or claim thereof. The Impound Account shall not, unless otherwise explicitly required by applicable law, be or be deemed to be escrow or trust funds, but, at Beneficiary’s option and in Beneficiary’s discretion, may either be held in a separate account or be commingled by Beneficiary with the general funds of Beneficiary. No interest on the funds contained in the Impound Account shall be paid by Beneficiary to Grantor. The Impound Account is solely for the protection of Beneficiary and entails no responsibility on Beneficiary’s part beyond the payment of taxes, assessments and insurance premiums following receipt of bills, invoices or statements therefor in accordance with the terms hereof and beyond the allowing of due credit for the sums actually received. Upon assignment of this Deed of Trust by Beneficiary, any funds in the Impound Account shall be turned over to the assignee and any responsibility of Beneficiary, as assignor, with respect thereto shall terminate. If the total funds in the Impound Account shall exceed the amount of payments actually applied by Beneficiary for the purposes of the Impound Account, such excess may be credited by Beneficiary on subsequent payments to be made hereunder or, at the option of Beneficiary, refunded to Grantor. If, however, the Impound Account shall not contain sufficient funds to pay the sums required when the same shall become due and payable, Grantor shall, within ten (10) days after receipt of written notice thereof, deposit with Beneficiary the full amount of any such deficiency. If Grantor shall fail to deposit with Beneficiary the full amount of such deficiency as provided above, Beneficiary shall have the option, but not the obligation, to make such deposit, and all amounts so deposited by Beneficiary, together with interest thereon at the Default Interest Rate from the date incurred by Beneficiary until actually paid by Grantor, shall be immediately paid by Grantor on demand and shall be secured by this Deed of Trust and by all of the other Loan Documents securing all or any part of the indebtedness evidenced by the Note. If there is an Event of Default under this Deed of Trust, Beneficiary may, but shall not be obligated to, apply at any time the balance then remaining in the Impound Account against the indebtedness secured hereby in whatever order Beneficiary shall subjectively determine. No such application of the Impound Account shall be deemed to cure any Default or Event of Default hereunder. Upon full payment of the indebtedness secured hereby in accordance with its terms or at such earlier time as Beneficiary may elect, the balance of the Impound Account then in Beneficiary’s possession shall be paid over to Grantor and no other party shall have any right or claim thereto.

 

 

1.7

Payment Reserve.

 

(a)       Contemporaneously with the execution hereof, Grantor has established with Beneficiary a reserve in the amount equal to one (1) regular monthly

 

 

- 15 -

 


installments of principal, interest and all required deposits or impounds as calculated by Beneficiary (the “Payment Reserve”). Grantor understands and agrees that, notwithstanding the establishment of the Payment Reserve as herein required, all of the proceeds of the Note have been, and shall be considered, fully disbursed and shall bear interest and be payable on the terms provided therein. No interest on funds contained in the Payment Reserve shall be paid by Beneficiary to Grantor.

 

(b)        For so long as no Event of Default has occurred hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents, Beneficiary shall on the first one (1) monthly Payment Dates (as defined in the Note) under the Note, advance from the Payment Reserve to itself the amount of the monthly installment due and payable by Grantor under the Note on such monthly Payment Date and shall also advance from the Payment Reserve into the Impound Account the amount of any deposit for taxes and insurance premiums and into the Replacement Reserve (as hereinafter defined) the amount of any deposit for Repairs (as hereinafter defined) and into any other reserve account the amount of any deposit in accordance with the terms of any other Loan Document required to be paid by Grantor concurrently with each such monthly installment pursuant to the terms hereof. Provided no Default or Event of Default has occurred after the final disbursement from the Payment Reserve, any amounts then remaining in the Payment Reserve shall be paid to Grantor. Nothing contained herein, including, without limitation, the existence of the Payment Reserve, shall release Grantor of any obligation to make payments under the Note, this Deed of Trust or the other Loan Documents strictly in accordance with the terms hereof or thereof and, in this regard, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, should the amounts contained in the Payment Reserve not be sufficient to pay in full the monthly installments and the Impound Account, Replacement Reserve and any other applicable reserve account deposits referenced above in this subparagraph, Grantor shall be responsible for paying such deficiency on the Payment Date of any such monthly installment.

 

 

1.8

Replacement Reserve: Security Interest Reserves.

 

(a)       As additional security for the indebtedness secured hereby, Grantor shall establish and maintain at all times while this Deed of Trust continues in effect a repair reserve (the “Replacement Reserve”) with Beneficiary for payment of certain non-recurring types of costs and expenses incurred by Grantor for interior and exterior work to the Property, including without limitation, performance of work to the roofs, chimneys, gutters, downspouts, paving, curbs, ramps, driveways, balconies, porches, patios, exterior walls, exterior doors and doorways, windows, elevators and mechanical and HVAC equipment, (collectively, the “Repairs”) provided such costs and expenses are incurred for repairs (i) not incurred for ordinary wear and tear at the Property and (ii) categorized under generally accepted accounting principles as a capital expense and not as an operating expense. Commencing on the first monthly Payment Date under the Note and continuing thereafter on each monthly Payment Date under the Note, Grantor shall pay to Beneficiary, concurrently with and in

 

 

- 16 -

 


addition to the monthly payment due under the Note and until the Note and all other indebtedness secured hereby is fully paid and performed, a deposit to the Replacement Reserve in an amount equal to $5,250.00 per month. So long as no Default or Event of Default hereunder or under the other Loan Documents has occurred and is continuing, all sums in the Replacement Reserve shall be held by Beneficiary in the Replacement Reserve to pay the costs and expenses of Repairs. So long as no Default or Event of Default hereunder or under the other Loan Documents has occurred and is continuing, Beneficiary shall, to the extent funds are available for such purpose in the Replacement Reserve, disburse to Grantor the amount incurred and paid by Grantor in performing such Repairs within ten (10) days following: (a) the receipt by Beneficiary of a written request from Grantor for disbursement from the Replacement Reserve and a certification in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B that the applicable item of Repair has been completed; (b) the delivery to Beneficiary of paid invoices, receipts or other evidence satisfactory to Beneficiary, verifying the cost and payment of performing the Repairs; (c) for disbursement requests in excess of $10,000.00, the delivery to Beneficiary of affidavits, lien waivers or other evidence reasonably satisfactory to Beneficiary showing that all materialmen, laborers, subcontractors and any other parties who might or could claim statutory or common law liens and are furnishing or have furnished material or labor to the Property have been paid all amounts due for labor and materials furnished to the Property; (d) for disbursement requests in excess of $10,000.00, delivery to Beneficiary of a certification from an inspecting architect or other third party acceptable to Beneficiary describing the completed Repairs and verifying the completion of the Repairs; (e) for disbursement requests in excess of $10,000.00, delivery to Beneficiary of a new certificate of occupancy for the portion of the Improvements covered by such Repairs, if said new certificate of occupancy is required by law, or a certification by Grantor that no new certificate of occupancy is required; and (f) the receipt by Beneficiary of an administrative fee in the amount of $150.00. Beneficiary shall not be required to make advances from the Replacement Reserve more frequently than once in any ninety (90) day period. In making any payment from the Replacement Reserve, Beneficiary shall be entitled to rely on such request from Grantor without any inquiry into the accuracy, validity or contestability of any such amount. Beneficiary may, at Grantor’s expense, make or cause to be made during the term of this Deed of Trust an annual inspection of the Property to determine the need, as determined by Beneficiary in its reasonable judgment, for further Repairs of the Property. In the event that such inspection reveals that further Repairs of the Property are required, Beneficiary shall provide Grantor with a written description of the required Repairs and Grantor shall complete such Repairs to the reasonable satisfaction of Beneficiary within ninety (90) days after the receipt of such description from Beneficiary, or such later date as may be approved by Beneficiary in its sole discretion. The Replacement Reserve shall not, unless otherwise explicitly required by applicable law, be or be deemed to be escrow or trust funds, but, at Beneficiary’s option and in Beneficiary’s discretion, may either be held in a separate account or be commingled by Beneficiary with the general funds of Beneficiary. Interest on the funds contained in the Replacement Reserve shall be credited to Grantor as provided in Section 5.31 hereof. The Replacement Reserve is

 

 

- 17 -

 


solely for the protection of Beneficiary and entails no responsibility on Beneficiary’s part beyond the payment of the costs and expenses described in this Section in accordance with the terms hereof and beyond the allowing of due credit for the sums actually received. In the event that the amounts on deposit or available in the Replacement Reserve are inadequate to pay the cost of the Repairs, Grantor shall pay the amount of such deficiency. Upon assignment of this Deed of Trust by Beneficiary, any funds in the Replacement Reserve shall be turned over to the assignee and any responsibility of Beneficiary, as assignor, with respect thereto shall terminate. If there is an Event of Default under this Deed of Trust, Beneficiary may, but shall not be obligated to, apply at any time the balance then remaining in the Replacement Reserve against the indebtedness secured hereby in whatever order Beneficiary shall subjectively determine. No such application of the Replacement Reserve shall be deemed to cure any Default or Event of Default hereunder. Upon full payment of the indebtedness secured hereby in accordance with its terms or at such earlier time as Beneficiary may elect, the balance of the Replacement Reserve then in Beneficiary’s possession shall be paid over to Grantor and no other party shall have any right or claim thereto.

 

(b)       As additional security for the payment and performance by Grantor of all duties, responsibilities and obligations under the Note and the other Loan Documents, Grantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably assigns, conveys, pledges, mortgages, transfers, delivers, deposits, sets over and confirms unto Beneficiary, and hereby grants to Beneficiary a security interest in, (i) the Impound Account, the Payment Reserve, the Repair and Remediation Reserve, the Replacement Reserve and any other reserve or escrow account established pursuant to the terms hereof or of any other Loan Document (collectively, the “Reserves”), (ii) the accounts into which the Reserves have been deposited, (iii) all insurance on said accounts, (iv) all accounts, contract rights and general intangibles or other rights and interests pertaining thereto, (v) all sums now or hereafter therein or represented thereby, (vi) all replacements, substitutions or proceeds thereof, (vii) all instruments and documents now or hereafter evidencing the Reserves or such accounts, (viii) all powers, options, rights, privileges and immunities pertaining to the Reserves (including the right to make withdrawals therefrom), and (ix) all proceeds of the foregoing. Grantor hereby authorizes and consents to the account into which the Reserves have been deposited being held in Beneficiary’s name or the name of any entity servicing the Note for Beneficiary and hereby acknowledges and agrees that Beneficiary, or at Beneficiary’s election, such servicing agent, shall have exclusive control over said account. Notice of the assignment and security interest granted to Beneficiary herein may be delivered by Beneficiary at any time to the financial institution wherein the Reserves have been established, and Beneficiary, or such servicing entity, shall have possession of all passbooks or other evidences of such accounts. Grantor hereby assumes all risk of loss with respect to amounts on deposit in the Reserves. Grantor hereby knowingly, voluntarily and intentionally stipulates, acknowledges and agrees that the advancement of the funds from the Reserves as set forth herein is at Grantor’s direction and is not the exercise by Beneficiary of any

 

 

- 18 -

 


right of set-off or other remedy upon a Default or an Event of Default. Grantor hereby waives all right to withdraw funds from the Reserves. If an Event of Default shall occur hereunder or under any other of the Loan Documents which is not cured within any applicable grace or cure period, then Beneficiary may, without notice or demand on Grantor, at its option: (A) withdraw any or all of the funds (including, without limitation, interest) then remaining in the Reserves and apply the same, after deducting all costs and expenses of safekeeping, collection and delivery (including, but not limited to, attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses) to the indebtedness evidenced by the Note or any other obligations of Grantor under the other Loan Documents in such manner or as Beneficiary shall deem appropriate in its sole discretion, and the excess, if any, shall be paid to Grantor, (B) exercise any and all rights and remedies of a secured party under any applicable Uniform Commercial Code, and/or (C) exercise any other remedies available at law or in equity. No such use or application of the funds contained in the Reserves shall be deemed to cure any Default or Event of Default hereunder or under the other Loan Documents.

 

1.9      Casualty and Condemnation. Grantor shall give Beneficiary prompt written notice of the occurrence of any casualty affecting, or the institution of any proceedings for eminent domain or for the condemnation of, the Property or any portion thereof. All insurance proceeds on the Property, and all causes of action, claims, compensation, awards and recoveries for any damage, condemnation or taking of all or any part of the Property or for any damage or injury to it for any loss or diminution in value of the Property, are hereby assigned to and shall be paid to Beneficiary. Beneficiary may participate in any suits or proceedings relating to any such proceeds, causes of action, claims, compensation, awards or recoveries, and Beneficiary is hereby authorized, in its own name or in Grantor’s name, to adjust any loss covered by insurance or any condemnation claim or cause of action, and to settle or compromise any claim or cause of action in connection therewith, and Grantor shall from time to time deliver to Beneficiary any instruments required to permit such participation; provided, however, that so long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing Beneficiary shall not have the right to participate in the adjustment of any loss which is not in excess of the lesser of (i) ten percent (10%) of the then outstanding principal balance of the Note, and (ii) $250,000.00. Beneficiary shall apply any sums received by it under this Section first to the payment of all of its costs and expenses (including, but not limited to, legal fees and disbursements) incurred in obtaining those sums, and then, as follows:

 

(a)       In the event that less than forty percent (40%) of the Improvements located on the Land have been taken or destroyed, then if:

 

(1)        no Default or Event of Default is then continuing hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents, and

 

(2)        the Property can, in Beneficiary’s judgment, with diligent restoration or repair, be returned to a condition at least equal to the

 

 

- 19 -

 


condition thereof that existed prior to the casualty or partial taking causing the loss or damage within the earlier to occur of (i) six (6) months after the receipt of insurance proceeds or condemnation awards by either Grantor or Beneficiary, and (ii) six (6) months prior to the stated maturity date of the Note, and

 

(3)        all necessary governmental approvals can be obtained to allow the rebuilding and reoccupancy of the Property as described in Section 1.9(a)(2) above, and

 

(4) there are sufficient sums available (through insurance proceeds or condemnation awards and contributions by Grantor, the full amount of which shall at Beneficiary’s option have been deposited with Beneficiary) for such restoration or repair (including, without limitation, for any costs and expenses of Beneficiary to be incurred in administering said restoration or repair) and for payment of principal and interest to become due and payable under the Note during such restoration or repair, and

 

(5)        the economic feasibility of the Improvements after such restoration or repair will be such that income from their operation is reasonably anticipated to be sufficient to pay operating expenses of the Property and debt service on the indebtedness secured hereby in full with the same coverage ratio considered by Beneficiary in its determination to make the loan secured hereby including an assessment of the impact of the termination of any Leases due to such casualty or condemnation, and

 

(6)       in the event that the insurance proceeds or condemnation awards received as a result of such casualty or partial taking exceed the lesser of (i) five percent (5%) of the then outstanding principal balance of the Note and (ii) $150,000, Grantor shall have delivered to Beneficiary, at Grantor’s sole cost and expense, an appraisal reporting form and substance satisfactory to Beneficiary appraising the value of the Property as proposed to be restored or repaired to be not less than the appraised value of the Property considered by Beneficiary in its determination to make the loan secured hereby, and

 

(7)       Grantor so elects by written notice delivered to Beneficiary within five (5) days after settlement of the aforesaid insurance or condemnation claim then, Beneficiary shall, solely for the purposes of such restoration or repair, advance so much of the remainder of such sums as may be required for such restoration or repair, and any funds deposited by Grantor therefor, to Grantor in the manner and upon such terms and conditions as would be required by a prudent interim construction lender, including, but not limited to, the prior approval by Beneficiary of plans and specifications, contractors and form of construction contracts and the furnishing to Beneficiary of permits, bonds, lien waivers, invoices, receipts and affidavits

 

 

- 20 -

 


from contractors and subcontractors, in form and substance satisfactory to Beneficiary in its discretion, with any remainder being applied by Beneficiary for payment of the indebtedness secured hereby in whatever order Beneficiary directs in its absolute discretion.

 

(b)        In all other cases, namely, in the event that forty percent (40%) or more of the Improvements located on the Land have been taken or destroyed or Grantor does not elect to restore or repair the Property pursuant to clause (a) above, or otherwise fails to meet the requirements of clause (a) above, then, in any of such events, Beneficiary shall elect, in Beneficiary’s absolute discretion and without regard to the adequacy of Beneficiary’s security, to do either of the following: (1) accelerate the maturity date of the Note and declare any and all indebtedness secured hereby to be immediately due and payable and apply the remainder of such sums received pursuant to this Section to the payment of the indebtedness secured hereby in whatever order Beneficiary directs in its absolute discretion, with any remainder being paid to Grantor, or (2) notwithstanding that Grantor may have elected not to restore or repair the Property pursuant to the provisions of Section 1.9(a)(7) above, require Grantor to restore or repair the Property in the manner and upon such terms and conditions as would be required by a prudent interim construction lender, including, but not limited to, the deposit by Grantor with Beneficiary, within thirty (30) days after demand therefor, of any deficiency necessary in order to assure the availability of sufficient funds to pay for such restoration or repair, including Beneficiary’s costs and expenses to be incurred in connection therewith, the prior approval by Beneficiary of plans and specifications, contractors and form of construction contracts and the furnishing to Beneficiary of permits, bonds, lien waivers, invoices, receipts and affidavits from contractors and subcontractors, in form and substance satisfactory to Beneficiary in its discretion, and apply the remainder of such sums toward such restoration and repair, with any balance thereafter remaining being applied by Beneficiary for payment of the indebtedness secured hereby in whatever order Beneficiary directs in its absolute discretion.

 

Any reduction in the indebtedness secured hereby resulting from Beneficiary’s application of any sums received by it hereunder shall take effect only when Beneficiary actually receives such sums and elects to apply such sums to the indebtedness secured hereby and, in any event, yet unpaid portion of the indebtedness secured hereby shall remain in full force and effect and Grantor shall not be excused in the payment thereof. Partial payments received by Beneficiary, as described in the preceding sentence, shall be applied first to the final payment due under the Note and thereafter to installments due under the Note in the inverse order of their due date. If Grantor elects or Beneficiary directs Grantor to restore or repair the Property after the occurrence of a casualty or partial taking of the Property as provided above, Grantor shall promptly and diligently, at Grantor’s sole cost and expense and regardless of whether the insurance proceeds or condemnation award, as appropriate, shall be sufficient for the purpose, restore, repair, replace and rebuild the Property as nearly as possible to its value, condition and character immediately prior to such casualty or

 

 

- 21 -

 


partial taking in accordance with the foregoing provisions and Grantor shall pay to Beneficiary all costs and expenses of Beneficiary incurred in administering said rebuilding, restoration or repair, provided that Beneficiary makes such proceeds or award available for such purpose. Grantor agrees to execute and deliver from time to time such further instruments as may be requested by Beneficiary to confirm the foregoing assignment to Beneficiary of any award, damage, insurance proceeds, payment or other compensation. Beneficiary is hereby irrevocably constituted and appointed the attorney-in-fact of Grantor (which power of attorney shall be irrevocable so long as any indebtedness secured hereby is outstanding, shall be deemed coupled with an interest, shall survive the voluntary or involuntary dissolution of Grantor and shall not be affected by any disability or incapacity suffered by Grantor subsequent to the date hereof), with full power of substitution, subject to the terms of this Section, to settle for, collect and receive any such awards, damages, insurance proceeds, payments or other compensation from the parties or authorities making the same, to appear in and prosecute any proceedings therefor and to give receipts and acquittances therefor.

 

1.10     Construction Liens. Grantor shall pay when due all claims and demands of mechanics, materialmen, laborers and others for any work performed or materials delivered for the Land or the Improvements; provided, however, that, Grantor shall have the right to contest in good faith any such claim or demand, so long as it does so diligently, by appropriate proceedings and without prejudice to Beneficiary and provided that neither the Property nor any interest therein would be in any danger of sale, loss or forfeiture as a result of such proceeding or contest. In the event Grantor shall contest any such claim or demand, Grantor shall promptly notify Beneficiary of such contest and thereafter shall, upon Beneficiary’s request, promptly provide a bond, cash deposit or other security satisfactory to Beneficiary to protect Beneficiary’s interest and security should the contest be unsuccessful. If Grantor shall fail to immediately discharge or provide security against any such claim or demand as aforesaid, Beneficiary may do so and any and all expenses incurred by Beneficiary, together with interest thereon at the Default Interest Rate from the date incurred by Beneficiary until actually paid by Grantor, shall be immediately paid by Grantor on demand and shall be secured by this Deed of Trust and by all of the other Loan Documents securing all or any part of the indebtedness evidenced by the Note.

 

1.11    Rents and Profits. As additional and collateral security for the payment of the Indebtedness secured hereby and cumulative of any and all rights and remedies herein provided for, Grantor hereby absolutely and presently assigns to Beneficiary all existing and future Rents and Profits. Grantor hereby grants to Beneficiary the sole, exclusive and immediate right, without taking possession of the Property, to demand, collect (by suit or otherwise), receive and give valid and sufficient receipts for any and all of said Rents and Profits, for which purpose Grantor does hereby irrevocably make, constitute and appoint Beneficiary its attorney-in-fact with full power to appoint substitutes or a trustee to accomplish such purpose (which power of attorney shall be irrevocable so long as any indebtedness secured hereby is

 

 

- 22 -

 


outstanding, shall be deemed to be coupled with an interest, shall survive the voluntary or involuntary dissolution of Grantor and shall not be affected by any disability or incapacity suffered by Grantor subsequent to the date hereof). Beneficiary shall be without liability for any loss which may arise from a failure or inability to collect Rents and Profits, proceeds or other payments. However, until the occurrence of an Event of Default under this Deed of Trust, Grantor shall have a license to collect and receive the Rents and Profits when due and prepayments thereof for not more than one (1) month prior to due date thereof. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default hereunder, Grantor’s license shall automatically terminate without notice to Grantor and Beneficiary may thereafter, without taking possession of the Property, collect the Rents and Profits itself or by an agent or receiver. From and after the termination of such license, Grantor shall be the agent of Beneficiary in collection of the Rents and Profits, and all of the Rents and Profits so collected by Grantor shall be held in trust by Grantor for the sole and exclusive benefit of Beneficiary, and Grantor shall, within one (1) business day after receipt of any Rents and Profits, pay the same to Beneficiary to be applied by Beneficiary as hereinafter set forth. Neither the demand for or collection of Rents and Profits by Beneficiary shall constitute any assumption by Beneficiary of any obligations under any agreement relating thereto. Beneficiary is obligated to account only for such Rents and Profits as are actually collected or received by Beneficiary. Grantor irrevocably agrees and consents that the respective payors of the Rents and Profits shall, upon demand and notice from Beneficiary of an Event of Default hereunder, pay said Rents and Profits to Beneficiary without liability to determine the actual existence of any Event of Default claimed by Beneficiary. Grantor hereby waives any right, claim or demand which Grantor may now or hereafter have against any such payor by reason of such payment of Rents and Profits to Beneficiary, and any such payment shall discharge such payor’s obligation to make such payment to Grantor. All Rents and Profits collected or received by Beneficiary may be applied against all expenses of collection, including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees, against costs of operation and management of the Property and against the indebtedness secured hereby, in whatever order or priority as to any of the items so mentioned as Beneficiary directs in its sole subjective discretion and without regard to the adequacy of its security. Neither the exercise by Beneficiary of any rights under this Section nor the application of any Rents and Profits to the secured indebtedness shall cure or be deemed a waiver of any Event of Default hereunder. The assignment of Rents and Profits hereinabove granted shall continue in full force and effect during any period of foreclosure or redemption with respect to the Property. Grantor has executed an Assignment of Leases and Rents dated of even date herewith (the Assignment”) in favor of Beneficiary covering all of the right, title and interest of Grantor, as landlord, lessor or licensor, in and to any Leases. All rights and remedies granted to Beneficiary under the Assignment shall be in addition to and cumulative of all rights and remedies granted to Beneficiary hereunder.

1.12

Leases and Licenses.

 

(a)       Prior to execution of any Leases of space in the Improvements after the date hereof, Grantor shall submit to Beneficiary, for Beneficiary’s prior approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, a copy of the form Lease Grantor plans to use in leasing space in the Improvements. All Leases of space in the Improvements shall be on terms consistent with the terms for similar leases in the market area of the Land, shall provide for free rent only if the same is consistent with prevailing market conditions and shall provide for market rents then prevailing in the market area of the Land. Such Leases shall also provide for security deposits in reasonable amounts. Grantor shall also submit to Beneficiary for Beneficiary’s approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, prior to the execution thereof, any proposed Lease of the Improvements or any portion thereof that differs materially and adversely from the aforementioned form Lease. Grantor shall not execute any Lease for all or a substantial portion of the Property, except for an actual occupancy by the Tenant thereunder, and shall at all times promptly and faithfully perform, or cause to be performed, all of the covenants, conditions and agreements contained in all Leases with respect to the Property, now or hereafter existing, on the part of the landlord, lessor or licensor thereunder to be kept and performed. Grantor shall furnish to Beneficiary, within ten (10) days after a request by Beneficiary to do so, but in any event by January 1 of each year, a current Rent Roll certified by Grantor as being true and correct, containing the names of all Tenants with respect to the Property, the terms of their respective Leases, the spaces occupied and the rentals or fees payable thereunder and the amount of each tenant’s security deposit. Upon the request of Beneficiary, Grantor shall deliver to Beneficiary a copy of each such Lease. Grantor shall not do or suffer to be done any act that might result in a default by the landlord, lessor or licensor under any such Lease or allow the Tenant, lessee or licensee thereunder to withhold payment or rent and, except as otherwise expressly permitted by the terms of Section 1.12 hereof, shall not further assign any such Lease or any such rents. Grantor, at no cost or expense to Beneficiary, shall enforce, short of termination, the performance and observance of each and every condition and covenant of each of the parties under such Leases. Grantor shall not, without the prior written consent of Beneficiary, modify any of the Leases, terminate or accept the surrender of any Leases, waive or release any other party from the performance or observance of any obligation or condition under such Leases except in the normal course of business in a manner which is consistent with sound and customary leasing and management practices for similar properties in the community in which the Property is located. Grantor shall not permit the prepayment of any rents under any of the Leases for more than one (1) month prior to the due date thereof (except with respect to newly executed Leases, Rents and Profits for the first and last months (i.e., two (2) months) may be collected in advance).

 

(b)        Each Lease executed after the date hereof affecting any of the Land or the Improvements must provide, in a manner approved by Beneficiary, that

 

 

- 24 -

 


the Tenant will recognize as its landlord, lessor or licensor, as applicable, and attom to any person succeeding to the interest of Grantor upon any foreclosure of this Deed of Trust or deed in lieu of foreclosure. Each such Lease shall also provide that, upon request of said successor in interest, the Tenant shall execute and deliver an instrument or instruments confirming its attornment as provided for in this Section; provided. however, that neither Beneficiary nor any successor-in-interest shall be bound by any payment of rental for more than one (1) month in advance, or any amendment or modification of said Lease made without the express written consent of Beneficiary or said successor-in-interest.

 

(c)        Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default under this Deed of Trust, whether before or after the whole principal sum secured hereby is declared to be immediately due or whether before or after the institution of legal proceedings to foreclose this Deed of Trust, forthwith, upon demand of Beneficiary, Grantor shall surrender to Beneficiary, and Beneficiary shall be entitled to take actual possession of, the Property or any part thereof personally, or by its agent or attorneys. In such event, Beneficiary shall have, and Grantor hereby gives and grants to Beneficiary, the right, power and authority to make and enter into Leases with respect to the Property or portions thereof for such rents and for such periods of occupancy and upon conditions and provisions as Beneficiary may deem desirable in its sole discretion, and Grantor expressly acknowledges and agrees that the term of any such Lease may extend beyond the date of any foreclosure sale of the Property; it being the intention of Grantor that in such event Beneficiary shall be deemed to be and shall be the attorney-in-fact of Grantor for the purpose of making and entering into Leases of parts or portions of the Property for the rents and upon the terms, conditions and provisions deemed desirable to Beneficiary in its sole discretion and with like effect as if such Leases had been made by Grantor as the owner in fee simple of the Property free and clear of any conditions or limitations established by this Deed of Trust. The power and authority hereby given and granted by Grantor to Beneficiary shall be deemed to be coupled with an interest, shall not be revocable by Grantor so long as any indebtedness secured hereby is outstanding, shall survive the voluntary or involuntary dissolution of Grantor and shall not be affected by any disability or incapacity suffered by Grantor subsequent to the date hereof. In connection with any action taken by Beneficiary pursuant to this Section, Beneficiary shall not be liable for any loss sustained by Grantor resulting from any failure to let the Property, or any part thereof, or from any other act or omission of Beneficiary in managing the Property, nor shall Beneficiary be obligated to perform or discharge any obligation, duty or liability under any Lease covering the Property or any part thereof or under or by reason of this instrument or the exercise of rights or remedies hereunder. Grantor shall, and does hereby, indemnify Beneficiary for, and hold Beneficiary harmless from, any and all claims, actions, demands, liabilities, loss or damage which may or might be incurred by Beneficiary under any such Lease or under this Deed of Trust or by the exercise of rights or remedies hereunder and from any and all claims and demands whatsoever which may be asserted against Beneficiary by reason of any alleged obligations or undertakings on its part to perform or discharge any of the

terms, covenants or agreements contained in any such Lease other than those finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted solely from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Beneficiary. Should Beneficiary incur any such liability, the amount thereof, including, without limitation, costs, expenses and attorneys’ fees, together with interest thereon at the Default Interest Rate from the date incurred by Beneficiary until actually paid by Grantor, shall be immediately due and payable to Beneficiary by Grantor on demand and shall be secured hereby and by all of the other Loan Documents securing all or any part of the indebtedness evidenced by the Note. Nothing in this Section shall impose on Beneficiary any duty, obligation or responsibility for the control, care, management or repair of the Property, or for the carrying out of any of the terms and conditions of any such Lease nor shall it operate to make Beneficiary responsible or liable for any waste committed on the Property by the Tenants or by any other parties or for any dangerous or defective condition of the Property, or for any negligence in the management, upkeep, repair or control of the Property. Grantor hereby assents to, ratifies and confirms any and all actions of Beneficiary with respect to the Property taken under this Section.

 

 

1.13

Alienation and Further Encumbrances.

 

(a)        Grantor acknowledges that Beneficiary has relied upon the principals of Grantor and their experience in owning and operating the Property and properties similar to the Property in connection with the closing of the loan evidenced by the Note. Accordingly, except as specifically allowed hereinbelow in this Section and notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 5.6 hereof, in the event that the Property or any part thereof or interest therein shall be sold, conveyed, disposed of, alienated, hypothecated, leased (except to Tenants of space in the Improvements in accordance with the provisions of Section 1.12 hereof), assigned, pledged, mortgaged, further encumbered or otherwise transferred or Grantor shall be divested of its title to the Property or any interest therein, in any manner or way, whether voluntarily or involuntarily, without the prior written consent of Beneficiary being first obtained, which consent may be withheld in Beneficiary’s sole discretion, then the same shall constitute an Event of Default hereunder and Beneficiary shall have the right, at its option, to declare any or all of the indebtedness secured hereby, irrespective of the maturity date specified in the Note, immediately due and payable and to otherwise exercise any of its other rights and remedies contained in Article III hereof. If such acceleration is during any period when a prepayment fee is payable pursuant to the provisions set forth in the Note, then, in addition to all of the foregoing, such prepayment fee shall also then be immediately due and payable to the same end as though Grantor were prepaying the entire indebtedness secured hereby on the date of such acceleration. For the purposes of this Section: (i) in the event either Grantor or any of its general partners or managing members is a corporation or trust, the sale, conveyance, transfer or disposition of more than 10% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Grantor or any of its general partners or of the beneficial interest of such trust (or the issuance of new shares of capital stock in Grantor or any of its general partners or managing members so that immediately after such issuance

 


 

- 26 -

the total capital stock then issued and outstanding is more than 110% of the total immediately prior to such issuance) shall be deemed to be a transfer of an interest in the Property; and (ii) in the event Grantor or any general partner or managing member of Grantor is a limited or general partnership, a joint venture or a limited liability company, a change in the ownership interests in any general partner, any joint venturer or any managing member, either voluntarily, involuntarily or otherwise, or the sale, conveyance, transfer, disposition, alienation, hypothecation or encumbering of all or any portion of the interest of any such general partner, joint venturer or managing member in Grantor or such general partner (whether in the form of a beneficial or partnership interest or in the form of a power of direction, control or management, or otherwise), shall be deemed to be a transfer of an interest in the Property. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, (i) limited partnership or non-managing member interests in Grantor or in any general partner or managing member of Grantor shall be freely transferable without the consent of Beneficiary, (ii) any involuntary transfer caused by the death of Grantor or any general partner, shareholder, joint venturer, or beneficial owner of a trust shall not be an Event of Default under this Deed of Trust so long as Grantor is reconstituted, if required, following such death and so long as those persons responsible for the management of the Property remain unchanged as a result of such death or any replacement management is approved by Beneficiary and (iii) gifts for estate planning purposes of any individual’s interests in Grantor or in any of Grantor’s general partners, managing members or joint venturers to the spouse or any lineal descendant of such individual, or to a trust for the benefit of any one or more of such individual, spouse or lineal descendant, shall not be an Event of Default under this Deed of Trust so long as Grantor is reconstituted, if required, following such gift and so long as those persons responsible for the management of the Property and Grantor remain unchanged following such gift or any replacement management is approved by Beneficiary. Notwithstanding any provision of this Deed of Trust to the contrary, no person or entity may, after the date hereof, become an owner of a direct or indirect interest in Grantor, which interest exceeds forty-nine percent (49%), without Beneficiary’s written consent in each instance and receipt by Beneficiary of confirmation that there will be no Adverse Rating Impact (as hereafter defined).

 

(b)       Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section, Beneficiary shall consent to one or more sales, conveyances or transfers of the Property in its entirety (hereinafter, “Sale”) to any person or entity provided that each of the following terms and conditions are satisfied for each such Sale:

 

(1)        No Default or Event of Default is then continuing hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents;

 

(2)        Grantor gives Beneficiary written notice of the terms of such prospective Sale not less than sixty (60) days before the date on which such Sale is scheduled to close and, concurrently therewith, gives Beneficiary all such information concerning the proposed transferee of the Property

1.35     Repair and Remediation Reserve. Prior to the execution of this Deed of Trust, Beneficiary has caused the Property to be inspected and such inspection has revealed that the Property is in need of certain maintenance, repairs and/or remedial or corrective work. Contemporaneously with the execution hereof, Grantor has established with the Beneficiary a reserve in the amount of $2,187.50 (the “Repair and Remediation Reserve”) by depositing such amount with Beneficiary. Grantor shall cause each of the items described in Exhibit C attached hereto and made a part hereof and as more particularly described in that certain Engineering Report entitled Property Condition Report, dated May 7, 2001 and prepared Dominian Environmental Group, Inc. (the “Deferred Maintenance”) to be completed, performed, remediated and corrected to the satisfaction of Beneficiary and as necessary to bring the Property into compliance with all applicable laws, ordinances, rules and regulations on or before the expiration of 90 days after the effective date hereof, as such time period may be extended by Beneficiary in its sole discretion. So long as no Default or Event of Default hereunder or under the other Loan Documents has occurred and is continuing, all sums in the Repair and Remediation Reserve shall be held by Beneficiary in the Repair and Remediation Reserve to pay the costs and expenses of completing the Deferred Maintenance. So long as no Default or Event of Default hereunder or under the other Loan Documents has occurred and is continuing, Beneficiary shall, to the extent funds are available for such purpose in the Repair and Remediation Reserve, disburse to Grantor the amount paid or incurred by Grantor in completing, performing, remediating or correcting the Deferred Maintenance upon (a) the receipt by Beneficiary of a written request from Grantor for disbursement from the Repair and Remediation Reserve and a certification by Grantor in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit B that the applicable item of Deferred Maintenance has been paid for and completed in accordance with the terms of this Deed of Trust, (b) delivery to Beneficiary of paid invoices, receipts or other evidence satisfactory to Beneficiary verifying the costs of the Deferred Maintenance to be reimbursed, (c) delivery to Beneficiary of a certification from

an inspecting architect, engineer or other consultant reasonably acceptable to Beneficiary describing the completed work, verifying the completion of the work and the value of the completed work and, if applicable, certifying that the Property is, as a result of such work, in compliance with all applicable laws, ordinances rules and regulations relating to the Deferred Maintenance so performed, (d) delivery to Beneficiary of affidavits, lien waivers or other evidence reasonably satisfactory to Beneficiary showing that all materialmen, laborers, subcontractors and any other parties who might or could claim statutory or common law liens and are furnishing or have furnished materials or labor to the Property have been paid all amounts due for such labor and materials furnished to the Property, and (e) the receipt by Beneficiary of an administrative fee in the amount of $150.00. Beneficiary shall not be required to make advances from the Repair and Remediation Reserve more frequently than once in any ninety (90) day period. In making any payment from the Repair and Remediation Reserve, Beneficiary shall be entitled to rely on such request from Grantor without any inquiry into the accuracy, validity or contestability of any such amount. Grantor hereby grants to Beneficiary, as additional security for payment of the indebtedness secured hereby, a security interest in the Repair and Remediation Reserve. In no event may Grantor be entitled to reimbursement of any costs with respect to each item of Deferred Maintenance in excess of the applicable amount set forth in Exhibit C attached hereto and made part hereof. The Repair and Remediation Reserve shall not, unless otherwise explicitly required by applicable law, be or be deemed to be escrow or trust funds, but at Beneficiary’s option and in Beneficiary’s discretion, may either be held in a separate account or be commingled by Beneficiary with the general funds of Beneficiary. No interest on the funds contained in the Repair and Remediation Reserve shall be paid by Beneficiary to Grantor. The Repair and Remediation Reserve is solely for the protection of Beneficiary and entails no responsibility on Beneficiary’s part beyond the payment of the costs and expenses described in this paragraph in accordance with the terms hereof and beyond the allowing of due credit for the sums actually received. In the event that the amounts on deposit or available in the Repair and Remediation Reserve are inadequate to pay the costs of the Deferred Maintenance, Grantor shall pay the amount of such deficiency. Upon assignment of this Deed of Trust by Beneficiary, any funds in the Repair and Remediation Reserve shall be turned over to the assignee and any responsibility of Beneficiary, as assignor, with respect thereto shall terminate. If there is a default under this Deed of Trust which is not cured within any applicable grace or cure period, Beneficiary may, but shall not be obligated to, apply at any time the balance then remaining in the Repair-and Remediation Reserve against the indebtedness secured hereby in whatever order Beneficiary shall subjectively determine. No such application of the Repair and Remediation Reserve shall be deemed to cure any default hereunder. Grantor hereby grants to Beneficiary a power-of-attorney, coupled with an interest, to cause the Deferred Maintenance to be completed, performed, remediated and corrected to the satisfaction of Beneficiary upon Grantor’s failure to do so in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Deed of Trust, and to apply the amounts on deposit in the

 

 

- 53 -

 


Repair and Remediation Reserve to the costs associated therewith, all as Beneficiary may determine in its sole and absolute discretion but without obligation to do so. Upon the earlier to occur of full payment of the indebtedness secured hereby in accordance with its terms, the completion of the Deferred Maintenance to the satisfaction of the Beneficiary or at such earlier time as Beneficiary may elect, the balance of the Repair and Remediation Reserve then in Beneficiary’s possession shall be paid over to Grantor and no other party shall have any right or claim thereto.

ARTICLE III

 

REMEDIES

 

3.1      Remedies Available. If there shall occur an Event of Default under this Deed of Trust, then this Deed of Trust is subject to foreclosure as provided by law and Beneficiary may, at its option and by or through a trustee, nominee, assignee or otherwise, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise any or all of the following rights, remedies and recourses, either successively or concurrently:

 

(a)       Acceleration. Accelerate the maturity date of the Note and declare any or all of the indebtedness secured hereby to be immediately due and payable without any presentment, demand, protest, notice or action of any kind whatever (each of which is hereby expressly waived by Grantor), whereupon the same shall become immediately due and payable. Upon any such acceleration,

 

 

- 56 -

 


payment of such accelerated amount shall constitute a prepayment of the principal balance of the Note and any applicable prepayment fee provided for in the Note shall then be immediately due and payable.

 

(b)        Entry on the Property. Either in person or by agent, with or without bringing any action or proceeding, or by a receiver appointed by a court and without regard to the adequacy of its security, enter upon and take possession of the Property, or any part thereof, without force or with such force as is permitted by law and without notice or process or with such notice or process as is required by law, unless such notice and process is waivable, in which case Grantor hereby waives such notice and process, and do any and all acts and perform any and all work which may be desirable or necessary in Beneficiary’s judgment to complete any unfinished construction on the Land, to preserve the value, marketability or rentability of the Property, to increase the income therefrom, to manage and operate the Property or to protect the security hereof, and all sums expended by Beneficiary therefor, together with interest thereon at the Default Interest-Rate, shall be immediately due and payable to Beneficiary by Grantor on demand and shall be secured hereby and by all of the other Loan Documents securing all or any part of the indebtedness evidenced by the Note.

 

(c)        Collect Rents and Profits. With or without taking possession of the Property, sue or otherwise collect the Rents and Profits, including those past due and unpaid.

 

(d)       Appointment of Receiver. Upon, or at any time prior or after, initiating the exercise of any power of sale, instituting any judicial foreclosure or instituting any other foreclosure of the liens and security interests provided for herein or any other legal proceedings hereunder, make application to a court of competent jurisdiction for appointment of a receiver for all or any part of the Property, as a matter of strict right and without notice to Grantor and without regard to the adequacy of the Property for the repayment of the indebtedness secured hereby or the solvency of Grantor or any person or persons liable for the payment of the indebtedness secured hereby, and Grantor does hereby irrevocably consent to such appointment, waive any and all notices of and defenses to such appointment and agree not to oppose any application therefor by Beneficiary, but nothing herein is to be construed to deprive Beneficiary of any other right, remedy or privilege Beneficiary may now have under the law to have a receiver appointed, provided, however, that the appointment of such receiver, trustee or other appointee by virtue of any court order, statute or regulation shall not impair or in any manner prejudice the rights of Beneficiary to receive payment of the Rents and Profits pursuant to other terms and provisions hereof. Any such receiver shall have all of the usual powers and duties of receivers in similar cases, including, without limitation, the full power to hold, develop, rent, lease, manage, maintain, operate and otherwise use or permit the use of the Property upon such terms and conditions as said receiver may deem to be prudent and reasonable under the circumstances as more fully set forth in Section 3.3 below.

 

 

- 57 -

 


Such receivership shall, at the option of Beneficiary, continue until full payment of all of the indebtedness secured hereby or until title to the Property shall have passed by foreclosure sale under this Deed of Trust or deed in lieu of foreclosure.

 

(e)       Foreclosure. Immediately commence an action or proceeding to foreclose this Deed of Trust or to specifically enforce its provisions with respect to the indebtedness secured hereby, pursuant to the statutes in such case made and provided, and sell the Property or cause the Property to be sold in accordance with the requirements and procedures provided by said statutes in a single parcel or in several parcels at the option of Beneficiary.

 

(1)       Should Beneficiary have elected to accelerate the indebtedness secured hereby, Beneficiary 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 Nevada 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 Nevada 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 Nevada in which any part of the Property is situated at least twenty-one (21) consecutive days before the date of said sale of the Property. Beneficiary 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 Beneficiary purchasing at any such sale shall have the right to credit the secured indebtedness owing to such Beneficiary 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, 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 himself 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

 


 

- 58 -

provided, and for so long as required by law, no foreclosure under the power of sale herein contained shall be held unless Beneficiary, 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.

 

(2) Should Beneficiary have not elected to accelerate the indebtedness secured hereby, Beneficiary may nonetheless proceed with foreclosure in satisfaction of such default, either through the courts or by directing the Trustee to proceed as if under a full foreclosure, conducting sale as hereinbefore provided, but without declaring the entire indebtedness secured by this Deed of Trust due, and provided that if said sale is made because of such default, such sale may be made subject to the unmatured part of the secured indebtedness. Such sale, if so made, shall not in any manner affect the unmatured part of the debt secured by this Deed of Trust, but as to such unmatured part, this Deed of Trust shall remain in full force as though no sale had been made. Several sales may be made without exhausting the right of sale with respect to any unmatured part of the secured indebtedness, it being the purpose and intent hereof to provide for a foreclosure and the sale of the Properly for any matured portion of said secured indebtedness without exhausting the power of foreclosure.

 

(3)        In the event foreclosure proceedings are instituted by Beneficiary, all expenses incident to such proceedings, including, but not limited to, attorneys’ and trustee’s fees and costs, shall be paid by Grantor and secured by this Deed of Trust and by all of the other Loan Documents securing all or any part of the indebtedness evidenced by the Note. The secured indebtedness and all other obligations secured by this Deed of Trust, including, without limitation, interest at the Default Interest Rate (as defined in the Note), any prepayment charge, fee or premium required to be paid under the Note in order to prepay principal (to the extent permitted by applicable law), attorneys’ and trustee’s fees and any other amounts due and unpaid to Beneficiary under the Loan Documents, may be bid by Beneficiary in the event of a foreclosure sale hereunder.

 

(f)       Judicial Remedies. Proceed by suit or suits, at law or in equity, instituted by Beneficiary, or Trustee, upon written request of Beneficiary, to enforce

 

 

- 59 -

 


the payment of the indebtedness secured hereby or the other obligations of Grantor hereunder or pursuant to the Loan Documents, to foreclose the liens and security interests of this Deed of Trust as against all or any part of the Property, and to have all or any part of the Property sold under the judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction. This remedy shall be cumulative of any other nonjudicial remedies available to the Beneficiary with respect to the Loan Documents. Proceeding with the request or receiving a judgment for legal relief shall not be or be deemed to be an election of remedies or bar any available non-judicial remedy of the Beneficiary.

 

(g)        Other. Exercise any other right or remedy available hereunder, under any of the other Loan Documents or at law or in equity.

 

3.2       Application of Proceeds. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the proceeds of any sale under this Deed of Trust shall be applied, to the extent funds are so available, to the following items in such order as Beneficiary in its discretion may determine:

 

(a)        To payment of the costs, expenses and fees of taking possession of the Property, and of holding, operating, maintaining, using, leasing, repairing, improving, marketing and selling the same and of otherwise enforcing Beneficiary’s right and remedies hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, including, but not limited to, a reasonable fee to the Trustee, receivers’ fees, court costs, attorneys’, accountants’, appraisers’, managers’ and other professional fees, title charges and transfer taxes.

(d)       The remainder, if any, of such funds shall be disbursed to Grantor or to the person or persons legally entitled thereto.

 

3.3       Right and Authority of Receiver or Beneficiary in the Event of Default; Power of Attorney. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default hereunder, which default is not cured within any applicable grace or cure period, and entry upon the Property pursuant to Section hereof or appointment of a receiver pursuant to Section 3.l(d) hereof, and under such terms and conditions as may be prudent and reasonable under the circumstances in Beneficiary’s or the receiver’s sole discretion, all at Grantor’s expense, Beneficiary or said receiver, or such other persons or entities

Any such lessee or third party is hereby irrevocably authorized to rely upon and comply with (and shall be fully protected by Grantor in so doing) any request, notice or demand by Beneficiary for the payment to Beneficiary of any Rents and Profits or other sums which may be or thereafter become due under its Lease, contract, concession, license or other agreement, or for the performance of any

 

 

- 61 -

 


undertakings under any such Lease, contract, concession, license or other agreement, and shall have no right or duty to inquire whether any Event of Default under this Deed of Trust or under any of the other Loan Documents has actually occurred or is then existing. Grantor hereby constitutes and appoints Beneficiary, its assignees, successors, transferees and nominees, as Grantor’s true and lawful attorney-in-fact and agent, with full power of substitution in the Property, in Grantor’s name, place and stead, to do or permit any one or more of the foregoing described rights, remedies, powers and authorities, successively or concurrently, and said power of attorney shall be deemed a power coupled with an interest and irrevocable so long as any indebtedness secured hereby is outstanding. Any money advanced by Beneficiary in connection with any action taken under this Section 3.3, together with interest thereon at the Default Interest Rate from the date of making such advancement by Beneficiary until actually paid by Grantor, shall be a demand obligation owing by Grantor to Beneficiary and shall be secured by this Deed of Trust and by every other instrument securing the secured indebtedness.

 

3.4      Occupancy After Foreclosure. In the event there is a foreclosure sale hereunder and at the time of such sale, Grantor or Grantor’s representatives, successors or assigns, or any other persons claiming any interest in the Property by, through or under Grantor (except tenants of space in the Improvements subject to Leases entered into prior to the date hereof), are occupying or using the Property, or any part thereof, then, to the extent not prohibited by applicable law, each and all shall, at the option of Beneficiary or the purchaser at such sale, as the case may be, immediately become the tenant of the purchaser at such sale, which tenancy shall be a tenancy from day-to-day, terminable at the will of either landlord or tenant, at a reasonable rental per day based upon the value of the Property occupied or used, such rental to be due daily to the purchaser. Further, to the extent permitted by applicable law, in the event the tenant fails to surrender possession of the Property upon the termination of such tenancy, the purchaser shall be entitled to institute and maintain an action for unlawful detainer of the Property in the appropriate court of the county in which the Land is located.

 

3.5      Notice to Account Debtors. Beneficiary may, at any time after an Event of Default notify the account debtors and obligors of any accounts, chattel paper, negotiable instruments or other evidences of indebtedness to Grantor included in the Property to pay Beneficiary directly. Grantor shall at any time or from time to time upon the request of Beneficiary provide to Beneficiary a current list of all such account debtors and obligors and their addresses.

 

3.6      Cumulative Remedies. All remedies contained in this Deed of Trust are cumulative and Beneficiary shall also have all other remedies provided at law and in equity or in any other Loan Documents. Such remedies may be pursued separately, successively or concurrently at the sole subjective direction of Beneficiary and may be exercised in any order and as often as occasion therefor shall arise. No act of Beneficiary shall be construed as an election to proceed under any particular

 

 

- 62 -

 


provisions of this Deed of Trust to the exclusion of any other provision of this Deed of Trust or as an election of remedies to the exclusion of any other remedy which may then or thereafter be available to Beneficiary. No delay or failure by Beneficiary to exercise any right or remedy under this Deed of Trust shall be construed to be a waiver of that right or remedy or of any Event of Default hereunder. Beneficiary may exercise any one or more of its rights and remedies at its option without regard to the adequacy of its security.

 

3.7      Payment of Expenses. Grantor shall pay on demand all of Beneficiary’s expenses incurred in any efforts to enforce any terms of this Deed of Trust, whether or not any lawsuit is filed and whether or not foreclosure is commenced but not completed, including, but not limited to, legal fees and disbursements, foreclosure costs and title charges, together with interest thereon from and after the date incurred by Beneficiary until actually paid by Grantor at the Default Interest Rate, and the same shall be secured by this Deed of Trust and by all of the other Loan Documents securing all or any part of the indebtedness evidenced by the Note.

 

3.8      Fair Market Value. The “fair market value” of the Property shall be determined as of the foreclosure date in order to enforce a deficiency against Grantor or any other party liable for the repayment of the indebtedness secured hereby, the term “fair market value” shall include those matters required by law and shall also include the additional factors as follows:

 

(a)        The Property is to be valued “AS IS, WHERE IS” and “WITH ALL FAULTS” and there shall be no assumption of restoration of or refurbishment of the Property after the date of foreclosure;

 

(b)        There shall be an assumption of a prompt resale of the Property for an all cash sales price by the purchaser at the foreclosure so that no extensive holding period should be factored into the determination of “fair market value” of the Property;

 

(c)       An offset to the fair market value of the Property, as determined hereunder, shall be made by deducting from such value the reasonable estimated closing costs relating to the sale of the Property, including, but not limited to, brokerage commissions, title policy expenses, tax prorations, escrow fees, and other common charges which are incurred by a seller of real property similar to the Property; and

 

(d)       After consideration of the factors required by law and those required above, an additional discount factor shall be calculated based upon the estimated time it will take to effectuate a sale of the Property so that the “fair market value” as so determined is discounted to be as of the date of the foreclosure of the Property.

4.1      No Required Action. Trustee shall not be required to take any action toward the execution and enforcement of the trust hereby created or to institute, appear in, or defend any action, suit, or other proceeding in connection therewith where, in his opinion, such action would be likely to involve him in expense or liability, unless requested so to do by a written instrument signed by Beneficiary and, if Trustee so requests, unless Trustee is tendered security and indemnity satisfactory to Trustee against any and all cost, expense, and liability arising therefrom. Trustee shall not be responsible for the execution, acknowledgment, or validity of the Loan Documents, or for the proper authorization thereof, or for the sufficiency of the lien and security interest purported to be created hereby, and Trustee makes no representation in respect thereof or in respect of the rights, remedies, and recourse of Beneficiary.

 

4.2      Certain Rights. With the approval of Beneficiary, Trustee shall have the right to take any and all of the following actions: (i) to select, employ, and consult with counsel (who may be, but need not be, counsel for Beneficiary) upon any matters arising hereunder, including the preparation, execution, and interpretation of the Loan Documents, and shall be fully protected in relying as to legal matters on the advice of counsel, (ii) to execute any of the trusts and powers hereof and to perform any duty hereunder either directly or through his agents or attorneys, (iii) to select and employ, in and about the execution of his duties hereunder, suitable accountants, engineers and other experts, agents and attorneys-in-fact, either corporate or individual, not regularly in the employ of Trustee (and Trustee shall not be answerable for any act, default, negligence, or misconduct of any such accountant, engineer or other expert, agent or attorney-in-fact, if selected with reasonable care, or for any error of judgment or act done by Trustee in good faith, or be otherwise responsible or accountable under any circumstances whatsoever, except for Trustee’s gross negligence or bad faith), and (iv) any and all other lawful action that Beneficiary may instruct Trustee to take to protect or enforce Beneficiary’s rights hereunder. Trustee shall not be personally liable in case of entry by Trustee, or anyone entering by virtue of the powers herein granted to Trustee, upon the Property for debts contracted for or liability or damages incurred in the management or operation of the Property.

will, from time to time, pay the compensation due to Trustee hereunder and reimburse Trustee for, and save Trustee harmless against, any and all liability and expenses which may be incurred by Trustee in the performance of Trustee’s duties.

 

4.3     Retention of Money. All moneys received by Trustee shall, until used or applied as herein provided, be held in trust for the purposes for which they were received, but need not be segregated in any manner from any other moneys (except to the extent required by applicable law), and Trustee shall be under no liability for interest on any moneys received by Trustee hereunder.

 

4.4      Successor Trustees. Trustee may resign by the giving of notice of such resignation in writing or verbally to Beneficiary. If Trustee shall die, resign, or become disqualified from acting in the execution of this trust, or if, for any reason, Beneficiary shall prefer to appoint a substitute trustee or multiple substitute trustees, or successive substitute trustees or successive multiple substitute trustees, to act instead of the aforenamed Trustee, Beneficiary shall have full power to appoint a substitute trustee (or, if preferred, multiple substitute trustees) in succession who shall succeed (and if multiple substitute trustees are appointed, each of such multiple substitute trustees shall succeed) to all the estates, rights, powers, and duties of the aforenamed Trustee. Such appointment may be executed by any authorized agent of Beneficiary, and if such Beneficiary be a corporation and such appointment be executed in its behalf by any officer of such corporation, such appointment shall be conclusively presumed to be executed with authority and shall be valid and sufficient without proof of any action by the board of directors or any superior officer of the corporation. Grantor hereby ratifies and confirms any and all acts which the aforenamed Trustee, or his successor or successors in this trust, shall do lawfully by virtue hereof. If multiple substitute Trustees are appointed, each of such multiple substitute Trustees shall be empowered and authorized to act alone without the necessity of the joinder of the other multiple substitute trustees, whenever any

action or undertaking of such substitute trustees is requested or required under or pursuant to this Deed of Trust or applicable law.

 

4.5       Perfection of Appointment. Should any deed, conveyance, or instrument of any nature be required from Grantor by any Trustee or substitute Trustee to more fully and certainly vest in and confirm to the Trustee or substitute Trustee such estates, rights, powers, and duties, then, upon request by the Trustee or substitute Trustee, any and all such deeds, conveyances and instruments shall be made, executed, acknowledged, and delivered and shall be caused to be recorded and/or filed by Grantor.

 

4.6      Succession Instruments. Any substitute Trustee appointed pursuant to any of the provisions hereof shall, without any further act, deed, or conveyance, become vested with all the estates, properties, rights, powers, and trusts of its or his predecessor in the rights hereunder with like effect as if originally named as Trustee herein; but nevertheless, upon the written request of Beneficiary or of the substitute

 

 

- 65 -

 


Trustee, the Trustee ceasing to act shall execute and deliver any instrument transferring to such substitute Trustee, upon the trusts herein expressed, all the estates, properties, rights, powers, and trusts of the Trustee so ceasing to act, and shall duly assign, transfer and deliver any of the property and moneys held by such Trustee to the substitute Trustee so appointed in the Trustee’s place.

 

4.7      No Representation by Trustee or Beneficiary. By accepting or approving anything required to be observed, performed, or fulfilled or to be given to Trustee or Beneficiary pursuant to the Loan Documents, including, without limitation, any officer’s certificate, balance sheet, statement of profit and loss or other financial statement, survey, appraisal, or insurance policy, neither Trustee nor Beneficiary shall be deemed to have warranted, consented to, or affirmed the sufficiency, legality, effectiveness, or legal effect of the same, or of any term, provision, or condition thereof, and such acceptance or approval thereof shall not be or constitute any warranty or affirmation with respect thereto by Trustee or Beneficiary.

5.26    Counterparts. This Deed of Trust may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be effective only upon delivery and thereafter shall be deemed an original, and all of which shall be taken to be one and the same instrument, for the same effect as if all parties hereto had signed the same signature page.

- 71 -

 


subject matter hereof and thereof and dl prior agreements relative hereto and thereto which are not contained herein or therein are terminated. This Deed of Trust and the other Loan Documents may not be amended, revised, waived, discharged, released or terminated orally but only by a written instrument or instruments executed by the party against which enforcement of the amendment, revision, waiver, discharge, release or termination is asserted. Any alleged amendment, revision, waiver, discharge, release or termination which is not so documented shall not be effective as to any Party.

 

5.30    Maximum Interest. The provisions of this Deed of Trust and of all agreements between Grantor and Beneficiary, whether now existing or hereafter arising and whether written or oral, are hereby expressly limited so that in no contingency or event whatsoever, whether by reason of demand or acceleration of the maturity of the Note or otherwise, shall the amount paid, or agreed to be paid (“Interest”), to Beneficiary for the use, forbearance or retention of the money loaned under the Note exceed the maximum amount permissible under applicable law. If, from any circumstance whatsoever, performance or fulfillment of any provision hereof or of any agreement between Grantor and Beneficiary shall, at the time performance or fulfillment of such provision shall be due, exceed the limit for Interest prescribed by law or otherwise transcend the limit of validity prescribed by applicable law, then ips0 facto the obligation to be performed or fulfilled shall be reduced to such limit, and if, from any circumstance whatsoever, Beneficiary shall ever receive anything of value deemed Interest by applicable law in excess of the maximum lawful amount, an amount equal to any excessive Interest shall be applied to the reduction of the principal balance owing under the Note in the inverse order of its maturity (whether or not then due) or at the option of Beneficiary be paid over to Grantor, and not to the payment of Interest. All Interest (including any amounts or payments deemed to be Interest) paid or agreed to be paid to Beneficiary shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread throughout the full period until payment in full of the principal balance of the Note so that the Interest thereon for such full period will not exceed the maximum amount permitted by applicable law. This paragraph will control all agreements between Grantor and Beneficiary.

 

5.31    Interest Payable by Beneficiary. Beneficiary shall cause funds in the Replacement Reserve to be deposited into an interest bearing account of the type customarily maintained by Beneficiary or its servicing agent for the investment of similar reserves, which account may not yield the highest interest rate then available. Interest payable on such amounts shall be computed based on the daily outstanding balance in the Replacement Reserve. Such interest shall be calculated on a simple, non-compounded interest basis based solely on contributions made to the Replacement Reserve by Grantor. All interest earned on amounts contributed to the Replacement Reserve shall be retained by Beneficiary and accumulated for the benefit of Grantor and added to the balance in the Replacement Reserve and shall be

 

 

- 72 -

 


disbursed for payment of the items for which other funds in the Replacement Reserve are to be disbursed.

 

5.32    Secondary Market. Beneficiary may sell, transfer and deliver the Loan Documents to one or more Investors in the secondary mortgage market. In connection with such sale, may retain or assign responsibility for servicing the loan or may delegate some or all of such responsibility and/or obligations to a servicer, including, but not limited to, any subservicer or master servicer, on behalf of the investors. All references to Beneficiary herein shall refer to and include, without limitation, any such servicer, to the extent applicable.

 

5.33    State Specific Provisions. The additional covenants, agreements and provisions set forth in Exhibit B and Exhibit C attached hereto, if any, shall be a part of this Deed of Trust and shall, in the event of any conflict between such further stipulations and any of the other provisions of this Deed of Trust, be deemed to control.

 

(a)       This Deed of Trust secures future advances, as defined in Nevada Revised Statutes (“NRS”) Section 106.320, and is to be governed by NRS 106.300 to 106.400, inclusive. The maximum principal amount to be secured hereby is $10,080,000.

 

(b)       The granting clause of this Deed of Trust shall be deemed amended to provide that the Property is conveyed unto Trustee, in trust for the benefit of Beneficiary, with power of sale and with right of entry and possession.

 

(c)       Without limiting the generality of Section 1.15 of this Deed of Trust, Grantor agrees that Beneficiary shall have the same right, power and authority to enter and inspect the Property as is granted to a secured lender under NRS Section 40.507, and that Beneficiary will have the right to appoint a receiver to enforce the right to enter and inspect the Property to the extent such authority is provided under Nevada law, including, without limitation, the authority granted to a secured lender under NRS Section 32.01 5.

 

(d)        As used in this Deed of Trust, “Environmental Laws” shall also include the applicable provisions of NRS Chapters 444,445A, 445B, 445C, 459 and 590, NRS Sections 618.750 through 618.850, inclusive, and NRS 477.045, and the present and future rules, regulations and guidance documents promulgated under any or all of the foregoing.

 

(e)       Beneficiary’s rights and remedies under this Deed of Trust shall be subject to NRS 107.080.

- 73 -

 


 

Should Beneficiary have elected to accelerate the indebtedness secured hereby, Beneficiary may initiate foreclosure of the Property by requesting the Trustee to effectuate a non-judicial foreclosure sale. Trustee shall give and record such notice as the law then requires as a condition precedent to a trustee’s sale. When the minimum period of time required by law after such notice has elapsed, Trustee, without notice to or demand upon Grantor except as required by law, shall sell the Property at the time and place of sale fixed by it in the notice of sale, at one or several sales, either as a whole or in separate parcels and in such manner and order, all as Beneficiary in its sole discretion may determine, at public auction to the highest bidder for cash, in lawful money of the United States, payable at time of sale. Neither Grantor nor any other person or entity other than Beneficiary shall have the right to direct the order in which the Property is sold. Subject to requirements and limits imposed by law, Trustee may, from time to time, postpone the sale of all or any portion of the Property by public announcement at such time and place of sale, and from time to time may postpone the sale by public announcement at the time and place fixed by the preceding postponement. A sale of less than the whole of the Property on any defective or irregular sale made hereunder shall not exhaust the power of sale provided for herein. Trustee shall deliver to the purchaser at such sale a deed conveying the Property or portion thereof so sold, but without any covenant or warranty, express or implied. The recitals in the deed of any matters or facts shall be conclusive proof of the truthfulness thereof. Beneficiary shall have the right to become the purchaser at any sale held by any Trustee or substitute or successor Trustee, or by any receiver of public officer. Any Beneficiary purchasing at any such sale shall have the right to credit the secured indebtedness owing to such Beneficiary 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 binds himself 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 Trustee as provided herein.

 

(g)       Where not inconsistent with the provisions of Sections 3.1 through 3.7, inclusive, of this Deed of Trust, covenants 1, 2 (full replacement value), 3, 4 (Default Interest Rate), 5, 6,7 (a reasonable percentage), 8 and 9 of NRS 107.030 are hereby adopted and made a part of this Deed of Trust.

 

(h)       Supplementing Section 5.23 of this Deed of Trust, this Deed of Trust shall constitute a fixture filing pursuant to NRS 104.9402, as amended and recodified from time to time. Some or all of the Collateral may be or become a fixture in which Beneficiary has a security interest under the security agreement set forth in Section 1.22 above (the “Security Agreement”). However, nothing herein shall, or shall be deemed to, create any lien or interest in favor of the Trustee in any Collateral

 

 

- 74 -

 


which is not a fixture. The rights, remedies and interests of Beneficiary under this Deed of Trust and the Security Agreement are independent and cumulative, and there shall be no merger of any lien hereunder with any security interest created by the Security Agreement. Beneficiary may elect to exercise or enforce any of its rights, remedies or interests under either or both this Deed of Trust or the Security Agreement as Beneficiary may from time to time deem appropriate.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Grantor has executed this Deed of Trust as of the date hereof.
