Debtor under the Mortgage Note, to be immediately due and payable, whereupon all
such Secured Obligations shall become immediately due and payable without
presentment, demand, notice of dishonor, protest or further notice of any kind,
all of which are hereby expressly waived by Debtor, anything contained herein to
the contrary notwithstanding; (b) to exercise any one or more of the rights and
remedies exercisable by Secured Party under any other provisions of this
Security Agreement, or any other related agreement or exercisable by a secured
party under the U.C.C. or under any other applicable law; and (c) to exercise,
in the name of Debtor or in the name of Secured Party, such rights and powers
with respect to the Collateral as Debtor might exercise, including, without
limitation, the right to:
(i) enter into any extension, reorganization, deposit, merger,
consolidation or other agreement pertaining to, or deposit, surrender, accept,
hold or apply other property in exchange for, the Collateral or any part
thereof;
-9-
10
(ii) insure, process, and preserve the Collateral;
(iii) transfer the Collateral or any part thereof to the name of
Secured Party or to the name of Secured Party's nominee;
(iv) receive, open, and dispose of mail addressed to Debtor
relating to the Collateral or any part thereof;
(v) collect and endorse, receive, and give receipts for all
dividends, interest, rent, payments, proceeds, and other sums and property now
or hereafter payable on or on account of the Collateral or any part thereof or
on account of its sale or lease;
(vi) initiate, pursue, compromise, settle or withdraw any claims,
suits or proceedings pertaining to the Collateral or any part thereof or to any
dividend, interest, rent or other payment on or on account of the Collateral or
any part thereof or on account of its sale or lease;
(vii) take possession of and endorse in the name of Debtor or in
the name of Secured Party, for the account of Debtor, any bills of exchange,
checks, drafts, money orders, notes or any other chattel paper, documents or
instruments constituting all or any part of the Collateral or received as a
dividend, interest, rent or other payment on or on account of the Collateral or
any part thereof or on account of its sale or lease;
(viii) appoint another (who may be an employee, officer or other
representative of Secured Party) to do any of the foregoing on behalf of Secured
Party; and
(ix) take any other action which Secured Party deems necessary or
desirable to protect or realize upon its security interest in the Collateral or
any part thereof, and Debtor hereby irrevocably appoints Secured Party as
Debtor's attorney-in-fact to take any such action, including, without
limitation, the execution and delivery of any and all documents or instruments
related to the Collateral or any part thereof in Debtor's name, and said
appointment shall create in Secured Party a power coupled with an interest which
shall be irrevocable.
provided, that, Secured Party shall have the option of proceeding, to the extent
permitted under applicable law, as to both real and personal property in
accordance with its rights and remedies in respect of the real property under
the Mortgage as an alternative to proceeding in accordance with the provisions
of the U.C.C.
5.2 RIGHT OF SECURED PARTY TO TAKE POSSESSION AND FORECLOSE
Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of any Event of
Default, Secured Party shall have the right and power to take possession of the
Collateral and of any and all books of account and records of Debtor relating to
any of the Collateral, the right to place Secured Party's representatives upon
any premises on which the Collateral or any part thereof or any such
-10-
11
books of account or records may be situated with full power to remove the same
therefrom, and the right to exclude Debtor and all persons claiming under Debtor
from any access to the Collateral or to any part thereof, and Secured Party and
such representatives are hereby granted the irrevocable license to enter upon
such premises (including, without limitation, the Properties and all parts
thereof) for such purpose. Secured Party may require Debtor to assemble the
Collateral or any part thereof and to make the same (to the extent the same is
moveable) available to Secured Party at a place to be designated by Secured
Party which is reasonably convenient to Debtor and Secured Party. Secured Party
may render the Collateral or any part thereof unusable without removing the same
from the premises on which it may be situated, and may sell the same on the
premises of Debtor if such Collateral or part thereof is situated thereon.
Secured Party may make formal application for the transfer of all of Debtor's
permits, licenses, approvals, agreements, and the like relating to the
Collateral or to Debtor's business to Secured Party or to any assignee of
Secured Party or to any purchaser of any of the Collateral. Unless the
Collateral is perishable or threatens to decline speedily in value or is of a
type customarily sold on a recognized market, Secured Party will give Debtor at
least ten (10) days prior written notice of the time and place of any public
sale thereof or of the time after which any private sale or any other intended
disposition thereof is to be made, which notice shall constitute reasonable
notice (and which notice may be made in conjunction with the notice of any
actions taken or to be taken under the Mortgage). In addition to exercising the
foregoing rights, Secured Party may, to the extent permitted by law, arrange for
and conduct the sale of the Collateral at a public or private sale, as Secured
Party may elect, which sale may be conducted by an employee or representative of
Secured Party and which sale may, at Secured Party's election, be made
contemporaneously with and as part of any foreclosure or other sale of the
Properties or any portion thereof at which such Collateral is located, pursuant
to the Mortgage, and any such sale shall be considered or deemed to be a sale
made in a commercially reasonable manner. Secured Party may release, temporarily
or otherwise, to Debtor any item of Collateral of which Secured Party has taken
possession pursuant to any right granted to Secured Party by this Security
Agreement without waiving any rights granted to Secured Party under this
Security Agreement, the Loan Agreement, the Mortgage Note, any other Loan
Document or any other agreement related hereto or thereto. Debtor, in dealing
with or disposing of the Collateral or any part thereof, hereby waives all
rights, legal and equitable, it may now or hereafter have to require marshaling
of assets or to require, upon foreclosure, sales of assets in a particular
order. Each successor and assign of Debtor, including a holder of a lien
subordinate to the lien created hereby (without implying that Debtor has, except
as expressly provided herein, a right to grant an interest in, or a subordinate
lien on, any of the Property), by acceptance of its interest or lien agrees that
it shall be bound by the above waiver, to the same extent as if such holder gave
the waiver itself. Debtor also hereby waives, to the full extent it may lawfully
do so, the benefit of all laws providing for rights of appraisal, valuation,
stay or extension or of redemption after foreclosure now or hereafter in force.
5.3 RIGHT OF SECURED PARTY TO COLLECT AND SERVICE ACCOUNTS
Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of any Event of
Default, Secured Party may notify or may require Debtor to notify any person or
entity obligated to Debtor under any account forming all or any part of the
Collateral, whether now existing or hereafter acquired,
-11-
12
that the same has been assigned to Secured Party and that such obligor should
make payment or performance of its obligations under such account directly to
Secured Party, and Secured Party may take possession of and exercise control
over all proceeds of any such account in Debtor's possession or otherwise, and
may take any other action which Secured Party deems necessary or desirable to
collect any such account or the proceeds thereof. To evidence Secured Party's
rights hereunder, Debtor shall, at Debtor's expense, execute such assignments or
endorsements of any such account, or of the proceeds thereof, as Secured Party
may request.
5.4 RIGHT OF SECURED PARTY TO USE AND OPERATE COLLATERAL
Upon Secured Party's taking possession of all or any part of the
Collateral, pursuant to any right granted Secured Party by this Security
Agreement or otherwise, Secured Party shall have the right to hold, store,
and/or use, operate, manage, and control the same. Upon any such taking of
possession, Secured Party may (but shall not be obligated to), from time to
time, at the expense of Debtor, make all such repairs, replacements,
alterations, additions, and improvements to and of all or any of the Collateral
as Secured Party may deem proper. In any such case Secured Party shall have the
right to exercise all rights and powers of Debtor in respect of the Collateral
or any part thereof as Secured Party shall deem proper, including the right to
enter into any and all such agreements with respect to the leasing and/or
operation of the Collateral or any part thereof as Secured Party may see fit;
and Secured Party shall be entitled to collect and receive all rents, issues,
profits, fees, revenues, and other income of the same and every part thereof.

5.7 REMEDIES CUMULATIVE
The rights and remedies of Secured Party under the Mortgage, the
Loan Agreement, this Security Agreement, or any other related agreement are
cumulative and shall in no way affect, or deprive Secured Party of, or be deemed
to constitute a waiver by Secured Party of, any other rights or remedies allowed
to the party at law or in equity. No notice to or demand on Debtor in any case
shall entitle Debtor to any other notice or demand in similar or other
circumstances and the exercise of any one remedy shall not impair Secured
Party's right simultaneously or at any time or in any order to exercise any
other remedy nor shall the exercise of any remedy in one case impair or
otherwise affect Secured Party's right or ability to exercise such remedy
contemporaneously or again in the same case or in any other case.
5.8 WAIVER OF RIGHTS
To the extent permitted under applicable law, Debtor waives all
rights and remedies of a debtor under the U.C.C. or other applicable law, and
all formalities prescribed by law relative to the sale or disposition of the
Collateral (other than notice of sale) after the occurrence and during the
continuation of an Event of Default and all other rights and remedies of Debtor
with respect thereto. In exercising its right to take possession of the
Collateral upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of
Default hereunder, Secured Party, personally or by its agents or attorneys, and
subject to the rights of any tenant under any lease or sublease of the Property,
to the fullest extent permitted by law, may enter upon any part of the Land
without being guilty of trespass or any wrongdoing, and without liability for
damages thereby occasioned. In the event Secured Party elects to proceed with
respect to the Collateral, separately from the real property, Secured Party
shall give at least ten (10) days notice of the sale of the Collateral, which
shall for all purposes be deemed to be commercially reasonable.
6. MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

Default hereunder.

disposition is permitted by the Loan Agreement.

connection with the disposition of any Collateral in accordance with this
SECTION 6.5. Nevertheless, if any purchaser of such Collateral or Debtor should
desire a release or other quitclaim from Secured Party in order to clear the
record title of such Collateral, Secured Party shall, at Debtor's expense and
promptly after receiving a written request from Debtor, execute an appropriate
release or such other instruments as may be reasonably required to evidence that

-15-
16
Debtor acknowledges and agrees that in connection with the
Securitization contemplated by SECTION 9 of the Loan Agreement, this Security
Agreement, together with the other Loan Documents, may be assigned, along with
mortgage loans made to other borrowers, to, among others, an institutional
trustee (the "TRUSTEE"), as trustee under a pooling and servicing agreement (the
"POOLING AND SERVICING AGREEMENT"), and, pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement, a professional loan servicer of recognized standing (the "SERVICER")
would be appointed to service the Loan, this Security Agreement and the Loan
Documents as provided therein. Upon such assignment, the Trustee shall for all
purposes be Secured Party hereunder (and all references herein to the Secured
Party shall be deemed to refer to the Trustee). The Trustee, together with the
Servicer, shall, among other things, (i) have the sole and exclusive benefit of
and the right and power to exercise, or to direct the exercise of, all the
rights and remedies of Secured Party hereunder, including, without limitation,
the right to inspect the Collateral, to receive notices and financial
information, to grant or withhold consents or approvals, to benefit from
indemnities, to receive, hold and apply proceeds or any other amount or property
provided by Debtor hereunder, and, upon the occurrence and during the
continuation of an Event of Default, to take any action required or permitted of
Secured Party, all in the Trustee's own name, and to exercise all other rights
and remedies of Secured Party hereunder and under the Security Documents and
(ii) be bound by all the terms hereof which apply to Secured Party. Debtor
hereby acknowledges the foregoing and agrees to be bound to the Trustee, upon
such assignment, recognizing the Trustee as Secured Party hereunder as if the
Trustee were named in this Security Agreement as Secured Party, recognizing that
the Servicer shall be entitled to act on behalf of the Trustee and the Holders
under and as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and shall be
entitled to and shall receive all notices, financial and other information,
agreements and other documents to be delivered to Secured Party or the Trustee
hereunder and accepting and agreeing to all of the terms set forth in the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the exhibits thereto, all of which shall be
secured under the Security Documents. Upon such assignment, Debtor's obligations
to the Secured Party specified in this Security Agreement shall be satisfied by
Debtor's tendering full and timely payment or performance thereof to the Trustee
or, if directed by the Trustee, to the Servicer. With respect to the delivery of
documents and other written material, the Trustee and the Servicer shall have
only the obligations expressly required of Secured Party herein or in the other
Loan Documents or of the Trustee or the Servicer in the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement. All rights and remedies of the Trustee as Secured Party hereunder,
including all indemnities running to Secured Party, shall also operate for the
benefit of the Servicer and the Holders as provided in the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement and shall be exercised by the Trustee and the Servicer in accordance
with and subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement. The Debtor acknowledges and agrees that, until the Debtor
has received notice to the contrary from the Trustee, all deliveries and
notifications to be made by the Debtor to the Trustee pursuant to this Security
Agreement or any other Loan Document, shall be made to the Servicer only and not
to the Trustee.
