ARTICLE I
COVENANTS OF GRANTOR
For the purpose of further securing the indebtedness secured
hereby and for the protection of the security of this Security Deed, for so
long as the indebtedness secured hereby or any part thereof remains unpaid,

Exceptions"), and has full power and lawful authority to grant, bargain,
sell, convey, assign, transfer and mortgage its interest in the Property in

interest created herein against the claims of all persons and parties

contemplated by Grantor or, to the best knowledge of Grantor, against

Deed, the Note and all of the other Loan Documents have been duly
authorized by all necessary action to be, and are, binding and enforceable
against Grantor in accordance with the respective terms thereof and do not
contravene, result in a breach of or constitute (upon the giving of notice
or the passage of time or both) a default under the partnership agreement,
articles of incorporation or other organizational documents of Grantor or
any contract or agreement of any nature to which Grantor is a party or by
which Grantor or any of its property may be bound and do not violate or
contravene any law, order, decree, rule or regulation to which Grantor is
subject;
(e) The Real Estate and the Improvements, and the intended use
thereof by Grantor comply in all material respects with all applicable
restrictive covenants, zoning ordinances, subdivision and building codes,
flood disaster laws, applicable health and environmental laws and
regulations and all other ordinances, orders or requirements issued by any
state, federal or municipal authorities having or claiming jurisdiction
over the Property. The Real Estate and Improvements constitute one or more
separate tax parcels for purposes of ad valorem taxation. The Real Estate

Security Deed are existing and have been fully approved by the appropriate
governmental authority;

administrative, mediation or arbitration actions, suits or proceedings
pending or threatened against or affecting Grantor, (and, if Grantor is a

(p) Each Contract constitutes the legal, valid and binding
obligation of Grantor and, to the best of Grantor's knowledge and belief,
is enforceable against any other party thereto. To the best of Grantor's
knowledge, no default exists, or with the passing of time or the giving of
notice or both would exist, under any Contract which would, in the

Property as a homestead.

1.2 DEFENSE OF TITLE. If, while this Security Deed is in force,
the title to the Property or the interest of Grantee therein shall be the
subject, directly or indirectly, of any action at law or in equity, or be
attached directly or indirectly, or endangered, clouded or adversely
affected in any manner, Grantor, at Grantor's expense, shall take all
necessary and proper steps for the defense of said title or interest,
including the employment of counsel approved by Grantee, the prosecution or
defense of litigation, and the compromise or discharge of claims made
against said title or interest. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the
event that Grantee determines that Grantor is not adequately performing its
obligations under this Section, Grantee may, without limiting or waiving
any other rights or remedies of Grantee hereunder, take such steps, with
respect thereto as Grantee shall deem necessary or proper and any and all
costs and expenses incurred by Grantee in connection therewith, together
with interest thereon at the Default Interest Rate (as defined in the Note)
from the date incurred by Grantee until actually paid by Grantor, shall be
immediately paid by Grantor on demand and shall be secured by this Security
Deed and by all of the other Loan Documents securing all or any part of the
indebtedness evidenced by the Note.
1.3 PERFORMANCE OF OBLIGATIONS. Grantor shall pay when due the
principal of and the interest on the indebtedness evidenced by the Note.
Grantor shall also pay all charges, fees and other sums required to be paid
by Grantor as provided in the Loan Documents, and shall observe, perform
and discharge all obligations, covenants and agreements to be observed,
performed or discharged by Grantor set forth in the Loan Documents in
accordance with their terms. Further, Grantor shall promptly and strictly
perform and comply with all covenants, conditions, obligations and
prohibitions required of Grantor in connection with any other document or
instrument affecting title to the Property, or any part thereof, regardless
of whether such document or instrument is superior or subordinate to this
Security Deed.
1.4 INSURANCE. Grantor shall, at Grantor's expense, maintain in
force and effect on the Property at all times while this Security Deed
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 Grantee's
election, by reference to such indices, appraisals or information as
Grantee 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
Grantee'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. Grantee 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 Grantee 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 HVAC units is in
operation at the Property, "Systems Breakdowns" coverage shall be required,
as determined by Grantee. 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 Grantee'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 Grantee,
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 Grantee, 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 twelve (12) months. The amount of coverage shall
be adjusted annually to reflect the Rents and Profits or income payable
during the succeeding twelve (12) 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 Grantee 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 have and maintain a rating of at least A from Standard & Poor's, or
equivalent, (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 Grantee 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

Attn. Commercial Security Deed Servicing
X.X. Xxx 00000

(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 Grantee 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 Grantee. Grantor shall
renew all such insurance and deliver to Grantee 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 Grantee 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 Grantee 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 Grantee 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 Grantee; (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
Grantee's applicable insurance requirements set forth in this Section 1.4.
The delivery to Grantee 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 Grantee as further security for the indebtedness secured hereby. In the
event of foreclosure of this Security Deed, 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 Grantee or
other transferee in the event of such other transfer of title. Approval of
any insurance by Grantee 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, after five (5) days notice, maintain, keep in
force or deliver and furnish to Grantee the policies of insurance required
by this Security Deed or evidence of their renewal as required herein,
Grantee may, but shall not be obligated to, procure such insurance and
Grantor shall pay all amounts advanced by Grantee therefor, together with
interest thereon at the Default Interest Rate from and after the date
advanced by Grantee until actually repaid by Grantor, promptly upon demand
by Grantee. Any amounts so advanced by Grantee, together with interest
thereon, shall be secured by this Security Deed and by all of the other
Loan Documents securing all or any part of the indebtedness secured hereby.
Grantee 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 Grntee 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 Grantee without
the prior written consent of Grantee, which consent will not be
unreasonably withheld provided that (i) Grantee is a named insured on such
insurance, (ii) Grantee 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 Security Deed, 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 Grantee 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 Grantee, contest the validity, applicability
or amount of any asserted tax or assessment so long as (a) such contest is
diligently pursued, (b) Grantee 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 Grantee
therein, and (c) prior to the earlier of the commencement of such contest
or the delinquency date of the asserted tax or assessment, Grantor deposits
in the Impound Account (as hereinafter defined) an amount determined by
Grantee 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, 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 Security Deed continues in effect an
impound account (the "Impound Account") with Grantee 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 Grantee to be necessary to ensure that there will be
on deposit with Grantee an amount which, when added to the monthly payments
subsequently required to be deposited with Grantee hereunder on account of
real estate taxes, assessments and insurance premiums, will result in there
being on deposit with Grantee 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. 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 Grantee, 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 Grantee. 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 Grante 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
Grantee, 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, Grantee shall pay the
governmental authority or other party entitled thereto directly to the
extent funds are available for such purpose in the Impound Account. In
making any payment from the Impound Account, Grantee shall be entitled to
rely on any xxxx, statement or estimate procured from the appropriate
public office or insurance company or agent without any inquiry into the
accuracy of such xxxx, 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 Grantee's option and in Grantee's discretion, may either be held in
a separate account or be commingled by Grantee with the general funds of
Grantee. No interest on the funds contained in the Impound Account shall
be paid by Grantee to Grantor. The Impound Account is solely for the
protection of Grantee and entails no responsibility on Grantee'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 Security Deed by Grantee, any funds in
the Impound Account shall be turned over to the assignee and any
responsibility of Grantee, as assignor, with respect thereto shall
terminate. If th total funds in the Impound Account shall exceed the
amount of payments actually applied by Grantee for the purposes of the
Impound Account, such excess may be credited by Grantee on subsequent
payments to be made hereunder or, at the option of Grantee, 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 Grantee the full amount of any such deficiency. If
the Grantor shall fail to deposit with Grantee the full amount of such
deficiency as provided above, Grantee shall have the option, but not the
obligation, to make such deposit and all amounts so deposited by Grantee,
together with interest thereon at the Default Interest Rate from the date
incurred by Grantee until actually paid by Grantor, shall be immediately
paid by Grantor on demand and shall be secured by this Security Deed 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 Security Deed, Grantee 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 Grantee 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 Grantee may elect, the balance of the Impound Account then
in Grantee'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 Grantee a reserve in the amount equal to two (2) regular
monthly installments of principal, interest and all required deposits or
impounds as calculated by Grantee (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 Grantee to Grantor.
(b) For so long as no Event of Default has occurred hereunder or
under any of the other Loan Documents, Grantee shall on the first two (2)
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 Security Deed 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 Security Deed
continues in effect a repair reserve (the "Replacement Reserve") with
Grantee 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, driveways, ramps, balconies, porches,
patios, exterior walls, carpets, 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 Payment Date under the Note and
continuing thereafter on each monthly Payment Date under the Note, the
Grantor shall pay to Grantee, 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, a deposit to the
Replacement Reserve in an amount equal to $4,080.00 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 Grantee 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, Grantee 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 Grantee of
a written request from Grantor for disbursement from the Replacement
Reserve and a certification by Grantor in the form attached hereto as
Exhibit B that the applicable item of Repair has been completed, (b) the
delivery to Grantee of paid invoices, receipts or other evidence
satisfactory to Grantee verifying the cost and payment of performing the
Repairs; (c) for disbursement requests in exess of $10,000.00, the delivery
to Grantee of affidavits, lien waivers or other evidence reasonably
satisfactory to Grantee 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 Grantee of a certification from an inspecting
architect or other third party acceptable to Grantee describing the
completed Repairs and verifying the completion of the Repairs and the value
of the completion of the Repairs and the value of the completed Repairs;
(e) for disbursement requests in excess of $10,000,00, delivery to Grantee
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 Grantee of an administrative fee in the
amount of $150.00. Grantee 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, Grantee shall
be entitled to rely on such request from Grantor without any inquiry into
the accuracy, validity or contestability of any such amount. Grantee may,
at Grantor's expense, make or cause to be made during the term of this
Security Deed an annual inspection at the Property to determine the need,
as determined by Grantee in its reasonable judgment, for further Repairs of
the Property in order to maintain the Property in good condition and repair
in accordance with the second sentence of Section 1.16 hereof. In the
event that such inspection reveals that further Repairs of the Property are
so required, Grantee shall provide Grantor with a written description of
the required Repairs and Grantor shall complete such epairs to the
reasonable satisfaction of Grantee within ninety (90) days after the
receipt of such description from Grantee, or such later date as may be
approved by Grantee 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 Grantee's option and in
Grantee's discretion, may either be held in a separate account or be
commingled by Grantee with the general funds of Grantee. Interest on the
funds contained in the Replacement Reserve shall be credited to Grantor as
provided in Section 4.31 hereof. The Replacement Reserve is solely for the
protection of Grantee and entails no responsibility on Grantee'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 Security Deed by Grantee, any funds in the Replacement Reserve
shall be turned over to the assignee and any responsibility of Grantee, as
assignor, with respect thereto shall terminate. If there is an Event of
Default under this Security Deed, Grantee 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 Grantee 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 Grantee may elect, the balance of the
Replacement Reserve then in Grantee'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 Grantee, and hereby grants to Grantee 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 Grantee's name or the name of
any entity servicing the Note for Grantee and hereby acknowledges and
agrees, that Grantee, or at Grantee's election, such servicing agent, shall
have exclusive control over said account. Notice of the assignment and
security interest granted to Grantee herein may be delivered by Grantee at
any time to the financial institution wherein the Reserves have been
established, and Grantee, 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
as long as such Reserves are deposited into "Permitted Investments" as
described in Exhibit D annexed hereto. 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 Grantee of any 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,
then Grantee 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 Grantee 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 Grantee 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 Grantee.
Grantee may participate in any suits or proceedings relating to any such
proceeds, causes of action, claims, compensation, awards or recoveries and
Grantee 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
Grantee 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. Grantee 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) $500,000.00. Grantee 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 sixty percent (60%) of the
Improvements located on the Real Estate 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 Grantee's reasonable judgment, with
diligent restoration or repair, be returned to a condition at least equal
to the 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 of Grantee and (ii) sixty (60) days 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 Grantee's option have been deposited with Grantee)
for such restoration or repair (including, without limitation, for any
costs and expenses of Grantee 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 Grantee 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 Grantee, at
Grantor's sole cost and expense, an appraisal report in form and substance
satisfactory to Grantee 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 Grantee in its determination to make the loan
secured hereby, and
(7) Grantor so elects by written notice delivered to Grantee
within five (5) days after settlement of the aforesaid insurance or
condemnation claim, then, Grantee 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 Grantee of plans and
specifications, contractors and form of construction contracts and the
furnishing to Grantee of permits, bonds, lien waivers, invoices, receipts
and affidavits from contractors and subcontractors in form and substance
satisfactory to Grantee in its discretion, with any remainder being applied
by Grantee for payment of the indebtedness secured hereby in whatever order
Grantee directs in its absolute discretion.
(8) In all other cases, namely, in the event that sixty percent
(60%) or more of the Improvements located on the Real Estate 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, Grantee shall
elect, in Grantee's absolute discretion and without regard to the adequacy
of Grantee'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 Grantee 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, to the extent that proceeds are
received by 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 deposit by Grantor with Grantee, 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 Grantee's costs and expenses to be incurred in connection
therewith, the prior approval by Grantee of plans and specifications,
contractors and form of construction contracts and the furnishing to
Grantee of permits, bonds, lien waivers, invoices, receipts and affidavits
from contractors and subcontractors in form and substance satisfactory to
Grantee in its discretion, and apply the remainder of such sums toward such
restoration and repair, with any balance thereafter remaining being applied
by Grantee for payment of the indebtedness secured hereby in whatever order
Grantee directs in its absolute dscretion.
Any reduction in the indebtedness secured hereby resulting from Grantee's
application of any sums received by it hereunder shall take effect only
when Grantee actually receives such sums and elects to apply such sums to
the indebtedness secured hereby and, in any event, the 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 Grantee, as described in the preceding sentence, shall be
applied to the unpaid principal balance evidenced hereby and the remaining
principal balance will be recast to adjust the fixed monthly installments
required to be paid pursuant to Section 1.02 of the Note over the remaining
amortization period. If Grantor elects or Grantee 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 partial taking in accordance with the
foregoing provisions and Grantor shall pay to Grantee all costs and
expenses of Grantee incurred in administering said rebuilding, restoration
or repair, provided the Grantee 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 Grantee to confirm the foregoing
assignment to Grantee of any award, damage, insurance proceeds, payment or
other compensation. Grantee 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
involuntry 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 MECHANICS' 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 Real Estate or 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 Grantee 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 Grantee of such contest and thereafter shall, upon
Grantee's request, promptly provide a bond, cash deposit or other security
satisfactory to Grantee to protect Grantee'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, Grantee may do so and any and all expenses incurred by Grantee,
together with interest thereon at the Default Interest Rate from the date
incurred by Grantee until actually paid by Grantor, shall be immediately
paid by Grantor on demand and shall be secured by this Security Deed 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 Grantee all existing and future Rents and Profits.
Grantor hereby grants to Grantee 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 Grantee 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 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). Grantee 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 Security Deed, Grantor shall have a license
to collect and receive the Rents and Profits when due and prepayments
thereof for not more than one 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 Grantee 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 Grantee 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 Grantee and Grantor shall, within one (1) business day
after receipt of any Rents and Profits, pay the ame to Grantee to be
applied by Grantee as hereinafter set forth. Neither the demand for or
collection of Rents and Profits by Grantee shall constitute any assumption
by Grantee of any obligations under any agreement relating thereto.
Grantee is obligated to account only for such Rents and Profits as are
actually collected or received by Grantee. Grantor irrevocably agrees and
consents that the respective payors of the Rents and Profits shall, upon
demand and notice from Grantee of an Event of Default hereunder, pay said
Rents and Profits to Grantee without liability to determine the actual
existence of any Event of Default claimed by Grantee. 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
Grantee, and any such payment shall discharge such payor's obligation to
make such payment to Grantor. All Rents and Profits collected or received
by Grantee shall 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 Grantee
directs in its sole subjective discretion and without regard to the
adequacy of its security. Neither the exercise by Grantee 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 Grantee 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 Grantee under the Assignment shall be in
adition to and cumulative of all rights and remedies granted to Grantee
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 Grantee, for Grantee'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 Real Estate, 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 Real Estate. Grantor shall also submit to Grantee for
Grantee'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 Grantee,
within ten (10) days after a request by Grantee 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 Grantee, Grantor shall deliver to
Grantee 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 thereunder to withhold
payment or rent and, excet 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 Grantee, 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 Grantee, 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.
(b) Each commercial Lease executed after the date hereof
affecting any of the Real Estate or the Improvements must provide, in a
manner approved by Grantee, that the Tenant will recognize as its landlord,
lessor or licensor, as applicable, and attorn to any person succeeding to
the interest of Grantor upon any foreclosure of this Security Deed or deed
in lieu of foreclosure. Each such commercial 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 Grantee 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
commercial Lease made without the express written consent of Grantee or
said successor-in-interest.
(c) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default under this
Security Deed, 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 Security Deed,
forthwith, upon demand of Grantee, Grantor shall surrender to Grantee and
Grantee shall be entitled to take actual possession of the Property or any
part thereof personally, or by its agent or attorneys. In such event,
Grantee shall have, and Grantor hereby gives and grants to Grantee, 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 Grantee 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 at the Property; it being the intention of Grantor that in such event
Grantee 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 Grantee 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 Security Deed. The power and authority hereby given and granted by
Grantor to Grantee 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 Grantee pursuant to this Section, Grantee shall not be liable for
any loss sustained by Grantor resulting from any failure to let the
Property, or any part threof, or from any other act or omission of Grantee
in managing the Property, nor shall Grantee 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 Grantee for, and hold Grantee harmless from, any and all
claims, actions, demands, liabilities, loss or damage which may or might be
incurred by Grantee under any such Lease or under this Security Deed or by
the exercise of rights or remedies hereunder and from any and all claims
and demands whatsoever which may be asserted against Grantee 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 Grantee.
Should Grantee 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
Grantee until actually paid by Grantor, shall be immediately due and
payable to Grantee 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 Grantee 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 Grantee
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 ations of Grantee with respect to the Property taken under this
Section.
1.13 Alienation and Further Encumbrances.
(a) Grantor acknowledges that Grantee has relied upon the
principals of Grantor and their experience in owning and operating the
Property through a management contract with Merry Land Property Management,
Inc. 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 4.6 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 Grantee being first obtained, which
consent may be withheld in Grantee's sole discretion, then the same shall
constitute an Event of Default hereunder and Grantee 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 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
Grantee, (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 Security Deed 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 Grantee 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 Security Deed 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 Grantee.
(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section,
Grantee 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 Grantee 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 Grantee
all such information concerning the proposed transferee of the Property
(hereinafter, "BUYER") as Grantee would require in evaluating an initial
extension of credit to a borrower and pays to Grantee a non-refundable
application fee in the amount of $5,000.00. Grantee shall have the right to
approve or disapprove the proposed Buyer. In determining whether to give
or withhold its approval of the proposed Buyer, Grantee shall consider the
Buyer's experience and track record in owning and operating facilities
similar to the Property, the Buyer's financial strength, the Buyer's
general business standing and the Buyer's relationships and experience with
contractors, vendors, tenants, lenders and other business entities;
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that, notwithstanding Grantee's agreement to consider
the foregoing factors in determining whether to give or withhold such
approval, such approval shall be given or withheld based on what Grantee
determines to be commercially reasonable in Grantee's commercially
reasonable discretion and, if given, may be given subject to such
conditions as Grantee may deem appropriate;
(3) Grantor pays Grantee, concurrently with the closing of
such Sale, a non-refundable assumption fee in an amount equal to all out-
of-pocket costs and expenses, including, without limitation, attorneys'
fees, incurred by Grantee in connection with the Sale, plus an amount equal
to one percent (1.0%) of the then outstanding principal balance of the
Note;
(4) The Buyer assumes and agrees to pay the indebtedness
secured hereby subject to the provisions of SECTION 4.27 hereof and, prior
to or concurrently with the closing of such Sale, the Buyer executes,
without any cost or expense to Grantee, such documents and agreements as
Grantee shall reasonably require to evidence and effectuate said assumption
and delivers such legal opinions as Grantee may require;
(5) A party associated with the Buyer approved by Grantee in
its sole discretion assumes the obligations of the current indemnitor under
its guaranty or indemnity agreement and such party associated with the
Buyer executes, without any cost or expense to Grantee, a new guaranty or
indemnity agreement in form and substance satisfactory to Grantee and
delivers such legal opinions as Grantee may require;
(6) Grantor and the Buyer execute, without any cost or
expense to Grantee, new financing statements or financing statement
amendments and any additional documents reasonably requested by Grantee;
(7) Grantor delivers to Grantee, without any cost or expense
to Grantee, such endorsements to Grantee's title insurance policy, hazard
insurance endorsements or certificates and other similar materials as
Grantee may deem necessary at the time of the Sale, all in form and
substance satisfactory to Grantee, including, without limitation, an
endorsement or endorsements to Grantee's title insurance policy insuring
the lien of this Security Deed, extending the effective date of such policy
to the date of execution and delivery (or, if later, of recording) of the
assumption agreement referenced above in SUBPARAGRAPH (4) of this Section,
with no additional exceptions added to such policy, and insuring that fee
simple title to the Property is vested in the Buyer;
(8) Grantor executes and delivers to Grantee, without any
cost or expense to Grantee, a release of Grantee, its officers, directors,
employees and agents, from all claims and liability relating to the
transactions evidenced by the Loan Documents, through and including the
date of the closing of the Sale, which agreement shall be in form and
substance satisfactory to Grantee and shall be binding upon the Buyer;
(9) Subject to the provisions of SECTION 4.27 hereof, such
Sale is not construed so as to relieve Grantor of any personal liability
under the Note or any of the other Loan Documents for any acts or events
occurring or obligations arising prior to or simultaneously with the
closing of such Sale, and Grantor executes, without any cost or expense to
Grantee, such documents and agreements as Grantee shall reasonably require
to evidence and effectuate the ratification of said personal liability.
Grantor shall be released from and relieved of any personal liability under
the Note or any of the other Loan Documents for any acts or events
occurring or obligations arising after the closing of such Sale which are
not caused by or arising out of any acts or events occurring or obligations
arising prior to or simultaneously with the closing of such Sale;
(10) Such Sale is not construed so as to relieve any current
indemnitor of its obligations under any guaranty or indemnity agreement for
any acts or events occurring or obligations arising prior to or
simultaneously with the closing of such Sale, and each such current
indemnitor executes, without any cost or expense to Grantee, such documents
and agreements as Grantee shall reasonably require to evidence and
effectuate the ratification of each such guaranty and indemnity agreement.
Each such current indemnitor shall be released from and relieved of any of
its obligations under any guaranty or indemnity agreement executed in
connection with the loan secured hereby for any acts or events occurring or
obligations arising after the closing of such Sale which are not caused by
or arising out of any acts or events occurring or obligations arising prior
to or simultaneously with the closing of such Sale;
(11) The Buyer shall furnish, if the Buyer is a corporation,
partnership or other entity, all appropriate papers evidencing the Buyer's
capacity and good standing, and the qualification of the signers to execute
the assumption of the indebtedness secured hereby, which papers shall
include certified copies of all documents relating to the organization and
formation of the Buyer and of the entities, if any, which are partners of
the Buyer. The Buyer and such constituent partners, members or
shareholders of Buyer (as the case may be), as Grantee shall require, shall
be single purpose, "bankruptcy remote" entities, whose formation documents
shall be approved by counsel to Grantee. The one (1) individual
recommended by the Grantor shall serve as an independent director of the
Buyer (if the Buyer is a corporation) or the Buyer's corporate general
partner or as independent member or, as manager, of Buyer if the Buyer is a
limited liability company. The consent of such independent party shall be
required for, among other things, any merger, consolidation, dissolution,
bankruptcy or insolvency of such independent party or of the Buyer; and
(12) Grantor delivers to Grantee a written statement from the
applicable rating agency to the effect that the Sale will not result in a
downgrading, withdrawal or qualification of the respective ratings in
effect immediately prior to such Sale for any securities issues in
connection with a Secondary Market Transaction (as hereinafter defined).
1.14 PAYMENT OF UTILITIES, ASSESSMENTS, CHARGES, ETC. Grantor
shall pay when due all utility charges which are incurred by Grantor or
which may become a charge or lien against any portion of the Property for
gas, electricity, water and sewer services furnished to the Real Estate
and/or the Improvements and all other assessments or charges of a similar
nature, or assessments payable pursuant to any restrictive covenants,
whether public or private, affecting the Real Estate and/or the
Improvements or any portion thereof, whether or not such assessments or
charges are or may become liens thereon.
1.15 ACCESS PRIVILEGES AND INSPECTIONS. Grantee and the agents,
representatives and employees of Grantee shall, subject to the rights of
tenants, have full and free access to the Real Estate and the Improvements
and any other location where books and records concerning the Property are
kept at all reasonable times for the purposes of inspecting the Property
and of examining, copying and making extracts from the books and records of
Grantor relating to the Property. Grantor shall lend assistance to all
such agents, representatives and employees of Grantee.

Estate or the Improvements. Grantor shall comply with all existing and
future requirements of all governmental authorities having jurisdiction
over the Property. Grantor shall keep all licenses, permits, franchises
and other approvals necessary for the operation of the Property in full
force and effect. Grantor shall operate the Property as an apartment
development for so long as the indebtedness secured hereby is outstanding.
If, under applicable zoning provisions, the use of all or any part of the
Real Estate or the Improvements is or becomes a nonconforming use, Grantor
shall not cause or permit such use to be discontinued or abandoned without
the prior written consent of Grantee. Further, without Grantee's prior
written consent, Grantor shall not file or subject any part of the Real
Estate or the Improvements to any declaration of condominium or
co-operative or convert any part of the Real Estate or the Improvements to

financial affairs sufficient to permit the preparation of financial
statements therefrom in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles. Grantee and its duly authorized representatives shall have the

If any of the aforementioned materials are not furnished to Grantee within

any of the foregoing, in addition to any other rights and remedies of
Grantee contained herein, Grantee shall have the right, but not the
obligation after notice and a 30 day right to cure, to obtain the same by
means of an audit by an independent certified public accountant selected by
Grantee, in which event Grantor agrees to pay, or to reimburse Grantee for,
any expense of such audit and further agrees to provide all necessary
information to said accountant and to otherwise cooperate in the making of
such audit.
1.19 FURTHER DOCUMENTATION.(a) Grantor shall, on the request of
Grantee and at the expense of Grantor: (a) promptly correct any defect,
error or omission which may be discovered in the contents of this Security
Deed or in the contents of any of the other Loan Documents; (b) promptly
execute, acknowledge, deliver and record or file such further instruments
(including, without limitation, further mortgages, deeds of trust, security
deeds, security agreements, financing statements, continuation statements
and assignments of rents or leases) and promptly do such further acts as
may be necessary, desirable or proper to carry out more effectively the
purposes of this Security Deed and the other Loan Documents and to subject
to the liens and security interests hereof and thereof any property
intended by the terms hereof and thereof to be covered hereby and thereby,
including specifically, but without limitation, any renewals, additions,
substitutions, replacements or appurtenances to the Property; (c) promptly
execute, acknowledge, deliver, procure and record or file any document or
instrument (including specifically any financing statement) deemed
advisable by Grantee to protect, continue or perfect the liens or the
security interests hereunder against the rights or interests of third
persons; and (d) promptly furnish to Grantee, upon Grantee's request, a
duly acknowledged written statement and estoppel certificate addressed to
such party or parties as directed by Grantee and in form and substance
supplied by Grantee, setting forth all amounts due under the Note, stating
whether any Default or Event of Default has occurred hereunder, stating
whether any offsets or defenses exist against the indebtedness secured
hereby and containing such other matters as Grantee may reasonably require.
(b) Grantor acknowledges that Grantee and its successors and
assigns may effectuate a Secondary Market Transaction. Grantor shall
cooperate in good faith with Grantee in effecting any such Secondary Market
Transaction and shall cooperate in good faith to implement all requirements
imposed by any rating agency involved in any Secondary Market Transaction
including, without limitation, all structural or other changes to the
indebtedness secured hereby, modifications to any documents evidencing or
securing the loan; provided, however, that the Grantor shall not be
required to modify any documents evidencing or securing the indebtedness
secured hereby which would modify (A) the interest rate payable under the
Note, (B) the stated maturity of the Note, (C) the amortization of
principal of the Note, or (D) any other material economic term of the
indebtedness secured hereby. Grantor shall provide such information, and
documents relating to Grantor, any guarantor or indemnitor, the Property
and any tenants of the Improvements as Grantee may reasonably request in
connection with such Secondary Market Transaction. Grantor shall make
available to Grantee all information concerning its business and operations
that Grantee may reasonably request. Grantee shall be permitted to share
all such information with the investment banking firms, rating agencies,
accounting firms, law firms and other third-party advisory firms involved
with the Loan Documents or the applicable Secondary Market Transaction. It
is understood that the information provided by Grantor to Grantee may
ultimately be incorporated into the offering documents for the Secondary
Market Transaction and thus various investors may also see some or all of
the information. Grantee and all of the aforesaid third-party advisors and
professional firms shall be entitled to rely on the information supplied
by, or on behalf of, Grantor and Grantor indemnifies Grantee as to any
losses, claims, damages or liabilities that arise out of or are based upon
any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact
contained in such information or arise out of or are based upon the
omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to
be stated in such information or necessary in order to make the statements
in such information, or in light of the circumstances under which they were
made, not misleading. Grantee may publicize the existence of the
indebtedness secured hereby in connection with its marketing for a
Secondary Market Transaction or otherwise as part of its business
development. For purposes hereof, a "Secondary Market Transaction" shall
be (a) any sale of the Security Deed, Note and other Loan Documents to one
or more investors as a whole loan; (b) a participation of the indebtedness
secured hereby to one or more investors, (c) any deposit of the Security
Deed, Note and other Loan Documents with a trust or other entity which may
sell certificates or other instruments to investors evidencing an ownership
interest in the assets of such trust or other entity, or (d) any other sale
or transfer of the indebtedness secured hereby or any interest therein to
one or more investors.
1.20 PAYMENT OF COSTS; REIMBURSEMENT TO GRANTEE. Grantor shall
pay all costs and expenses of every character incurred in connection with
the closing of the loan evidenced by the Note and secured hereby or
otherwise attributable or chargeable to Grantor as the owner of the
Property, including, without limitation, appraisal fees, recording fees,
documentary, stamp, mortgage or intangible taxes, brokerage fees and
commissions, title policy premiums and title search fees, uniform
commercial code/tax lien/litigation search fees, escrow fees and reasonable
attorneys' fees. If Grantor defaults in any such payment, which default is
not cured within any applicable grace or cure period, Grantee may pay the
same and Grantor shall reimburse Grantee on demand for all such costs and
expenses incurred or paid by Grantee, together with such interest thereon
at the Default Interest Rate from and after the date of Grantee's making
such payment until reimbursement thereof by Grantor. Any such sums
disbursed by Grantee, together with such interest thereon, shall be
additional indebtedness of Grantor secured by this Security Deed and by all
of the other Loan Documents securing all or any part of the indebtedness
evidenced by the Note. Further, Grantor shall promptly notify Grantee in
writing of any litigation or threatened litigation affecting the Property,
or any other demand or claim which, if enforced, could impair or threaten
to impair Grantee's security hereunder. Without limiting or waiving any
other rights and remedies of Grantee hereunder, if Grantor fails to perform
any of its covenants or agreements contained in this Security Deed or in
any of the other Loan Documents and such failure is not cured within any
applicable grace or cure period, or if any action or proceeding of any kind
(including, but not limited to, any bankruptcy, insolvency, arrangement,
reorganization or other debtor relief proceeding) is commenced which might
affect Grantee's interest in the Property or Grantee's right to enforce its
security, then Grantee may, at its option, with or without notie to
Grantor, make any appearances, disburse any sums and take any actions as
may be necessary or desirable to protect or enforce the security of this
Security Deed or to remedy the failure of Grantor to perform its covenants
and agreements (without, however, waiving any default of Grantor). Grantor
agrees to pay on demand all expenses of Grantee incurred with respect to
the foregoing (including, but not limited to, reasonable fees and
disbursements of counsel), together with interest thereon at the Default
Interest Rate from and after the date on which Grantee incurs such expenses
until reimbursement thereof by Grantor. Any such expenses so incurred by
Grantee, together with interest thereon as provided above, shall be
additional indebtedness of Grantor secured by this Security Deed and by all
of the other Loan Documents securing all or any part of the indebtedness
evidenced by the Note. The necessity for any such actions and of the
amounts to be paid shall be determined by Grantee in its discretion.
Grantee is hereby empowered to enter and to authorize others to enter upon
the Property or any part thereof for the purpose of performing or observing
any such defaulted term, covenant or condition without thereby becoming
liable to Grantor or any person in possession holding under Grantor.
Grantor hereby acknowledges and agrees that the remedies set forth in this
Section 1.20 shall be exercisable by Grantee, and any and all payments made
or costs or expenses incurred by Grantee in connection therewith shall be
secured hereby and shall be, without demand, immediately repaid by Grantor
with interest thereon at the Default Interest Rate, notwithstanding the
fact that such remedies were exercised and such payments made and costs
incurred by Grantee after the filing by Grantor of a voluntary case or the
filing against Grantor of an involuntary case pursuant to or within the
meaning of the Bankruptcy Reform Act of 1978, as amended, Title 11 U.S.C.,
or after any similar action pursuant to any other debtor relief law whether
statutory, common law, case law or otherwise) of any jurisdiction
whatsoever, now or hereafter, in effect, which may be or become applicable
to Grantor, Grantee, any guarantor or indemnitor, the secured indebtedness
or any of the Loan Documents. Grantor hereby indemnifies and holds Grantee
harmless from and against all loss, cost and expenses with respect to any
Event of Default hereof, any liens (i.e., judgments, mechanics' and
materialmen's liens, or otherwise), charges and encumbrances filed against
the Property, and from any claims and demands for damages or injury,
including claims for property damage, personal injury or wrongful death,
arising out of or in connection with any accident or fire or other casualty
on the Real Estate or the Improvements or any nuisance made or suffered
thereon, including, in any case, attorneys' fees, costs and expenses as
aforesaid, whether at pretrial, trial or appellate level, and such
indemnity shall survive payment in full of the indebtedness secured hereby.
This Section shall not be construed to require Grantee to incur any
expenses, make any appearances or take any actions.
1.21 SECURITY INTEREST. This Security Deed is also intended to
encumber and create a security interest in, and Grantor hereby grants to
Grantee a security interest in all sums on deposit with Grantee pursuant to
the provisions of Sections 1.6, 1.7, 1.8 and 1.35 hereof or any other
Section hereof and all fixtures, chattels, accounts, equipment, inventory,
contract rights, general intangibles and other personal property included
within the Property, all renewals, replacements of any of the
aforementioned items, or articles in substitution therefor or in addition
thereto or the proceeds thereof (said property is hereinafter referred to
collectively as the "Collateral"), whether or not the same shall be
attached to the Real Estate or the Improvements in any manner. It is
hereby agreed that to the extent permitted by law, all of the foregoing
property is to be deemed and held to be a part of and affixed to the Real
Estate and the Improvements. The foregoing security interest shall also
cover Grantor's leasehold interest in any of the foregoing property which
is leased by Grantor. Notwithstanding the foregoing, all of the foregoing
property shall be owned by Grantor and no material leasing or installment
sales or other financing or title retention agreement in connection
therewith shall be permitted without the prior written approval of Grantee.
Grantor shall, from time to time upon the request of Grantee, supply
Grantee with a current inventory of all of the property in which Grantee is
granted a security interest hereunder, in such detail as Grantee may
require. Grantor shall promptly replace all of the Collateral subject to
the lien or security interest of this Security Deed when worn or obsolete
with Collateral comparable to the worn out or obsolete Collateral when new
and will not, without the prior written consent of Grantee, remove from the
Real Estate or the Improvements any of the Collateral subject to the lien

security agreement between Grantor and Grantee with respect to the
Collateral in which Grantee is granted a security interest hereunder, and,
cumulative of all other rights and remedies of Grantee hereunder, Grantee
shall have all of the rights and remedies of a secured party under any
applicable Uniform Commercial Code. Grantor hereby agrees to execute and

the subject of the security interest granted herein is located to take
possession of, assemble and collect the same or to render it unusable, or
Grantor, upon demand of Grantee, shall assemble such property and make it
available to Grantee at the Real Estate, a place which is hereby deemed to
be reasonably convenient to Grantee and Grantor. Grantee shall give
Grantor at least ten (10) days' prior written notice of the time and place
of any public sale of such property or of the time of or after which any
private sale or any other intended disposition thereof is to be made, and
if such notice is sent to Grantor, as the same is provided for the mailing
of notices herein, it is hereby deemed that such notice shall be and is
reasonable notice to Grantor. No such notice is necessary for any such
property which is perishable, threatens to decline speedily in value or is
of a type customarily sold on a recognized market. Any sale made pursuant
to the provisions of this Section shall be deemed to have been a public
sale conducted in a commercially reasonable manner if held

easement or right-of-way with respect to all or any portion of the Real
Estate or the Improvements without the prior written consent of Grantee.
The purchaser at any foreclosure sale hereunder may, at its discretion,
disaffirm any easement or right-of-way granted in violation of any of the
provisions of this Security Deed and may take immediate possession of the
Property free from, and despite the terms of, such grant of easement or
right-of-way. If Grantee consents to the grant of an easement or
right-of-way, Grantee agrees to grant such consent provided that Grantee is
paid a standard review fee together with all other expenses, including,
without limitation, attorneys' fees, incurred by Grantee in the review of
Grantor's request and in the preparation of documents effecting the

with all statutes, ordinances, orders, regulations and other governmental
or quasi-governmental requirements and private covenants now or hereafter
relating to the ownership, construction, use or operation of the Property,
including, but not limited to, those concerning employment and compensation
of persons engaged in operation and maintenance of the Property and any
environmental or ecological requirements, even if such compliance shall
require structural changes to the Property; provided, however, that,
Grantor may, upon providing Grantee with security satisfactory to Grantee,
proceed diligently and in good faith to contest the validity or
applicability of any such statute, ordinance, regulation or requirement so
long as during such contest the Property shall not be subject to any lien,
charge, fine or other liability and shall not be in danger of being
forfeited, lost or closed. Grantor shall not use or occupy, or allow the
use or occupancy of, the Property in any manner which violates any Lease of
or any other agreement applicable to the Property or any applicable law,
rule, regulation or order or which constitutes a public or private nuisance
or which makes void, voidable or cancelable, or increases the premium of,
any insurance then in force with respect thereto.
1.25 ADDITIONAL TAXES. In the event of the enactment after this
date of any law of the state where the Property is located or of any other
governmental entity deducting from the value of the Property for the
purpose of taxing any lien, conveyance or security interest thereon or
thereof, or imposing upon Grantee the payment of the whole or any part of
the taxes or assessments or charges of liens herein required to be paid by
Grantor, or changing in any way the laws relating to the taxation of deeds
of trust, security deeds, mortgages or security agreements or debts secured
by mortgages, security deeds, or security agreements or the interest of the
Grantee or secured party in the property covered thereby, or the manner of
collection of such taxes, so as to adversely affect this Security Deed or
the indebtedness secured hereby or Grantee, then, and in any such event,
Grantor, upon demand by Grantee, shall pay such taxes, assessments, charges
or liens, or reimburse Grantee therefor; provided, however, that if in the
opinion of counsel for Grantee (a) it might be unlawful to require Grantor
to make such payment, or (b) the making of such payment might result in the
imposition of interest beyond the maximum amount permitted by law, then and
in either such event, Grantee may elect, by notice in writing given to
Grantor, to declare all of the indebtedness secured hereby to be and become
due and payable in full thirty (30) days from the giving of such notice.

Security Deed shall secure payment of not only the indebtedness evidenced
by the Note but also any and all substitutions, replacements, renewals and
extensions of the Note, any and all indebtedness and obligations arising
pursuant to the terms hereof and any and all indebtedness and obligations
arising pursuant to the terms of any of the other Loan Documents, all of
which indebtedness is equally secured with and has the same priority as any
amounts advanced as of the date hereof. It is agreed that any future
advances made by Grantee to or for the benefit of Grantor from time to time
under this Security Deed or the other Loan Documents and whether or not
such advances are obligatory or are made at the option of Grantee, or
otherwise, made for any purpose, within twenty (20) years from the date
hereof, and all interest accruing thereon, shall be equally secured by this
Security Deed and shall have the same priority as all amounts, if any,
advanced as of the date hereof and shall be subject to all of the terms and
provisions of this Security Deed.
1.27 GRANTOR'S WAIVERS. To the full extent permitted by law,
Grantor agrees that Grantor shall not at any time insist upon, plead, claim
or take the benefit or advantage of any law now or hereafter in force
providing for any appraisement, valuation, stay, moratorium or extension,
or any law now or hereafter in force providing for the reinstatement of the
indebtedness secured hereby prior to any sale of the Property to be made
pursuant to any provisions contained herein or prior to the entering of any
decree, judgment or order of any court of competent jurisdiction, or any
right under any statute to redeem all or any part of the Property so sold.

all persons ever claiming any interest in the Property, to the full extent
permitted by law, hereby knowingly, intentionally and voluntarily with and

that any court having jurisdiction to foreclose such liens and security
interests may order the Property sold as an entirety; and (c) waives,
releases, relinquishes and forever forgoes all rights and periods of
redemption provided under applicable law. To the full extent permitted by
law, Grantor shall not have or assert any right under any statute or rule
of law pertaining to the exemption of homestead or other exemption under
any federal, state or local law now or hereafter in effect, the
administration of estates of decedents or oher matters whatever to defeat,
reduce or affect the right of Grantee under the terms of this Security Deed
to a sale of the Property, for the collection of the secured indebtedness
without any prior or different resort for collection, or the right of
Grantee under the terms of this Security Deed to the payment of the
indebtedness secured hereby out of the proceeds of sale of the Property in
preference to every other claimant whatever. Further, Grantor hereby
knowingly, intentionally and voluntarily, with and upon the advice of
competent counsel, waives, releases, relinquishes and forever forgoes all
present and future statutes of limitations as a defense to any action to
enforce the provisions of this Security Deed or to collect any of the
indebtedness secured hereby the fullest extent permitted by law. Grantor
covenants and agrees that upon the commencement of a voluntary or
involuntary bankruptcy proceeding by or against Grantor, Grantor shall not
seek a supplemental stay or otherwise shall not seek pursuant to 11 U.S.C.
105 or any other provision of the Bankruptcy Reform Act of 1978,
as amended, or any other debtor relief law (whether statutory, common law,
case law, or otherwise) of any jurisdiction whatsoever, now or hereafter in
effect, which may be or become applicable, to stay, interdict, condition,
reduce or inhibit the ability of Grantee to enforce any rights of Grantee

party liable with respect thereto by virtue of any indemnity, guaranty or
otherwise.

such release or threat of release so that it does not migrate or otherwise
cause or threaten danger to present or future public health, safety,
welfare or the environment, and costs incurred to comply with the
Environmental Laws in connection with all or any portion of the Property or
any surrounding areas. The indemnity set forth in this Section 1.31(c)
shall also include any diminution in the value of the security afforded by

under this Security Deed, the Note and the other Loan Documents.
(d) Upon Grantee's request, at any time after the occurrence of
an Event of Default hereunder or at such other time as Grantee has
reasonable grounds to believe that Hazardous Substances are or have been
released, stored or disposed of on or around the Property or that the
Property may be in violation of the Environmental Laws, Grantor shall
provide, at Grantor's sole cost and expense, an inspection or audit of the
Property prepared by a hydrogeologist or environmental engineer or other
appropriate consultant approved by Grantee indicating the presence or
absence of Hazardous Substances on the Property or an inspection or audit

and its employees and agents access to the Property and a license to
undertake such inspection or audit. The cost of such inspection or audit,
together with interest thereon at the Default Interest Rate from the date
incurred by Grantee until actually paid by Grantor, shall be immediately
due and payable to Grantee 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.

shall be read together to maximize the coverage with respect to the subject
matter thereof, as determined by Grantee.
(f) If, prior to the date hereof, it was determined that the
Property contains Lead Based Paint, Grantor had prepared an assessment
report describing the location and condition of the Lead Based Paint (a
"Lead Based Paint Report"). If, at any time hereafter, Lead Based Paint is
suspected of being present on the Property, Grantor agrees, at its sole
cost and expense and within twenty (20) days thereafter, to cause to be
prepared a Lead Based Paint Report prepared by an expert, and in form,
scope and substance, acceptable to Grantee.
(g) Grantor agrees that if it has been, or if at any time
hereafter it is, determined that the Property contains Lead Based Paint, on

determination was made prior to the date hereof or (ii) such determination,
if such determination is hereafter made, as applicable, Grantor shall, at
its sole cost and expenses, develop and implement, and thereafter
diligently and continuously carry out (or cause to be developed and
implemented and thereafter diligently and continually to be carried out),
an operations, abatement and maintenance plan for the Lead Based Paint on
the Property, which plan shall be prepared by an expert, and be in form,
scope and substance, acceptable to Grantee (together with any Lead Based
Paint Report, the "O&M Plan"). (If an O&M Plan has been prepared prior to
the date hereof, Grantor agrees to diligently and continually carry out (or
cause to be carried out) the provisions thereof). Compliance with the O&M
Plan shall require or be deemed to require, without limitation, the proper
preparation and maintenance of all records, papers and forms required under
the Environmental Laws.

reasonable attorneys' fees, together with reasonable appellate counsel
fees, if any) of whatever kind or nature which may be asserted against,
imposed on or incurred by Grantee in connection with the secured
indebtedness, this Security Deed, the Property, or any part thereof, or the
exercise by Grantee of any rights or remedies granted to it under this
Security Deed; provided, however, that nothing herein shall be construed to
obligate Grantor to indemnify, defend and hold harmless Grantee from and
against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties,
claims, actions, suits, costs and expenses enacted against, imposed on or
incurred by Grantee by reason of Grantee's willful misconduct or gross
negligence.

claim is threatened or brought against Grantee concerning the secured
indebtedness, this Security Deed, the Property, or any part thereof, or any
interest therein, or the construction, maintenance, operation or occupancy
or use thereof, then Grantor shall indemnify, defend and hold Grantee
harmless from and against all liability by reason of said litigation or
claims, including reasonable attorneys' fees (together with reasonable
appellate counsel fees, if any) and expenses incurred by Grantee in any
such litigation or claim, whether or not any such litigation or claim is
prosecuted to judgment. If Grantee commences an action against Grantor to
enforce any of the terms hereof or to prosecute any breach by Grantor of
any of the terms hereof or to recover any sum secured hereby, Grantor shall
pay to Grantee its reasonable attorneys' fees (together with reasonable
appellate counsel fees, if any) and expenses. The right to such attorneys'
fees (together with reasonable appellate counsel fees, if any) and expenses
shall be deemed to have accrued on the commencement of such action, and
shall be enforceable whether or not such action is prosecuted to judgment.
If Grantor breaches any term of this Security Deed, Grantee may engage the
services of an attorney or attorneys to protect its rights hereunder, and
in the event of such engagement following any breach by Grantor, Grantor
shall pay Grantee reasonable attorneys' fees (together with reasonable
appellate counsel fees, if any) and expenses incurred by Grantee, whether
or not an action is actually commenced against Grantor by reason of such
breach. All references to "attorneys" in this Subsection and elsewhere in
this Security Deed shall include without limitation any attorney or law

1.35 REPAIR AND REMEDIATION RESERVE. Prior to the execution of
this Security Deed, Grantee 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 Grantee a
reserve in the amount of $6,250.00 [125% OF THE ESTIMATED COST TO COMPLETE]
(the "Repair and Remediation Reserve") by depositing such amount with
Grantee. 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 Physical Facility Inspection
Report, dated April, 1999 and prepared by Comprehensive Building
Analysis, Inc. (the "Deferred Maintenance") to be completed, performed,
remediated and corrected to the satisfaction of Grantee 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 Grantee 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 Grantee 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,
Grantee 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 Grantee 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 pid for
and completed in accordance with the terms of this Security Deed, (b)
delivery to Grantee of paid invoices, receipts or other evidence
satisfactory to Grantee verifying the costs of the Deferred Maintenance to
be reimbursed, (c) delivery to Grantee of a certification from an
inspecting architect, engineer or other consultant reasonably acceptable to
Grantee 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 Grantee of affidavits, lien waivers or other
evidence reasonably satisfactory to Grantee 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
Grantee of an administrative fee in the amount of $150.00. Grantee 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, Grantee 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
Grantee, 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
Grante's option and in Grantee's discretion, may either be held in a
separate account or be commingled by Grantee with the general funds of
Grantee. No interest on the funds contained in the Repair and Remediation
Reserve shall be paid by Grantee to Grantor. The Repair and Remediation
Reserve is solely for the protection of Grantee and entails no
responsibility on Grantee'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 Security Deed by Grantee, any funds in the Repair and
Remediation Reserve shall be turned over to the assignee and any
responsibility of Grantee, as assignor, with respect thereto shall
terminate. If there is a default under this Security Deed which is not
cured within any applicable grace or cure period, Grantee 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 Grantee shall subjectively determine. No such application
of the Repair and Remediation Reserve shall be deemed to cure any default
hereunder. Grantor hereby grants to Grantee a power-of-attorney, coupled
with an interest, to cause the Deferred Maintenance to be completed,
performed, remediated and corrected to the satisfaction of Grantee upon
Grantor's failure to do so in accordance with the terms and conditions of
this Security Deed, and to apply the amounts on deposit in the Repair and
Remediation Reserve to the costs associated therewith, all as Grantee 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 Grantee or at such earlier time as
Grantee may elect, the balance of the Repair and Remediation Reserve then
in Grantee'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 Security Deed, then this Security Deed is subject to foreclosure
as provided by law and Grantee 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, 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 Grantee's judgment to complete any unfinished construction
on the Real Estate, 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 Grantee
therefor, together with interest thereon at the Default Interest Rate,
shall be immediately due and payable to Grantee 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, xxx 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, waives any and all notices of and
defenses to such appointment and agrees not to oppose any application
therefor by Grantee, but nothing herein is to be construed to deprive
Grantee of any other right, remedy or privilege Grantee 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 Grantee 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. Such receivership shall, at the option of Grantee,
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 Security Deed or deed in lieu of foreclosure.
(e) FORECLOSURE. Immediately commence an action to foreclose
this Security Deed or to specifically enforce its provisions or any of 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 Grantee.
(1) Should Grantee have elected to accelerate the
indebtedness secured hereby, Grantee may initiate
foreclosure of the Property by effectuating a non-judicial
foreclosure sale. Grantee shall then sell, or offer for
sale, the Property at public sale in accordance with the
laws of the State of Georgia then in force and governing
said sales of real property and improvements under powers
conferred by security deeds. Each such sale shall be at the
time, place and in the manner prescribed for holding
sheriff's sales of property of like kind, in the County
where the Property, or a part thereof, is located, after
advertising said sale once in each of the four consecutive
weeks (without regard to the number of days) immediately
preceding the sale in the newspaper in which are advertised
sales by the sheriff of said County, all other notice being
hereby waived by Grantor. Grantor hereby constitutes and
appoints Grantee the agent and attorney-in-fact of Grantor
to conduct such sale and to execute in the name of Grantor a
deed or deeds of conveyance to the purchaser or purchasers,
which deed or deeds shall contain full warranties of title
in the name of Grantor and shall recite default in payment,
advertisement and sale, which shall be conclusive evidence
thereof, and shall convey to the purchaser or purchasers
good and sufficient titles to the Property sold; and Grantee
is authorized to be a bidder and purchaser at all such
sales. Any Grantee purchasing at any such sale shall have
the right to credit the secured indebtedness owing to such
Grantee upon the amount of its bid entered at such sale to
the extent necessary to satisfy such bid. Grantor binds
himself to warrant and forever defend the title of such
purchaser or purchasers when so made by the Grantee, and
agrees to accept proceeds of said sale, if any, which are
payable to Grantor as provided herein. All acts of said
Grantee as attorney-in-fact are hereby ratified and
confirmed. The power of sale referred to above and agency
hereby granted are coupled with an interest and are
irrevocable by death or otherwise, are granted as cumulative
of the remedies provided hereby, and shall not be exhausted
by the exercise thereof, but may be exercised until full
payment of the indebtedness secured hereby.
(2) Should Grantee have not elected to accelerate the
indebtedness secured hereby, Grantee may nonetheless proceed
with foreclosure in satisfaction of such default, either
through the courts or by conducting a sale as hereinbefore
provided, but without declaring the entire indebtedness
secured by this Security Deed 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 Security Deed,
but as to such unmatured part, this Security Deed 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 Property for
any matured portion of said secured indebtedness without
exhausting the power of foreclosure.
(3) In the event foreclosure proceedings are instituted
by Grantee, 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
Security Deed 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 Security Deed, including,
without limitation, interest at the Default Interest Rate

appropriate or desirable to implement and effectuate the provisions of this
Security Deed. This Security Deed shall constitute a direction to and full
authority to any lessee, or other third party who has heretofore dealt or
contracted or may hereafter deal or contract with Grantor or Grantee, at
the request of Grantee, to pay all amounts owing under any Lease, contract,
concession, license or other agreement to Grantee without proof of the
Event of Default relied upon. 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 Grantee
for the payment to Grantee 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 undertakings under any
such Lese, contract, concession, license or other agreement, and shall have
no right or duty to inquire whether any Event of Default under this
Security Deed or under any of the other Loan Documents has actually
occurred or is then existing. Grantor hereby constitutes and appoints
Grantee, 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 Grantee
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 Grantee until actually paid by Grantor, shall be a demand
obligation owing by Grantor to Grantee and shall be secured by this
Security Deed 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 Grantee 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 Real Estate is located.
3.5 NOTICE TO ACCOUNT DEBTORS. Grantee 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 Grantee directly. Grantor shall
at any time or from time to time upon the request of Grantee provide to
Grantee a current list of all such account debtors and obligors and their
addresses.
3.6 CUMULATIVE REMEDIES. All remedies contained in this Security
Deed are cumulative and Grantee 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 Grantee and may be exercised in any order and as often as
occasion therefor shall arise. No act of Grantee shall be construed as an
election to proceed under any particular provisions of this Security Deed
to the exclusion of any other provision of this Security Deed or as an
election of remedies to the exclusion of any other remedy which may then or
thereafter be available to Grantee. No delay or failure by Grantee to
exercise any right or remedy under this Security Deed shall be construed to
be a waiver of that right or remedy or of any Event of Default hereunder.
Grantee 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
Grantee's expenses incurred in any efforts to enforce any terms of this
Security Deed, 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 Grantee until
actually paid by Grantor at the Default Interest Rate, and the same shall
be secured by this Security Deed and by all of the other Loan Documents
securing all or any part of the indebtedness evidenced by the Note.

INITIALED BY GRANTOR:
______________
4.5 NOTICES. All notices, demands, requests or other
communications to be sent by one party to the other hereunder or required
by law shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been validly given
or served by delivery of the same in person to the intended addressee, or
by depositing the same with Federal Express or another reputable private
courier service for next business day delivery, or by depositing the same
in the United States mail, postage prepaid, registered or certified mail,
return receipt requested, in any event addressed to the intended addressee
at its address set forth on the first page of this Security Deed or at such
other address as may be designated by such party as herein provided. All
notices, demands and requests to be sent to Grantee shall be addressed to
the attention of the Capital Markets Group. All notices, demands and
requests shall be effective upon such personal delivery, or one (1)
business day after being deposited with the private courier service, or
three (3) business days after being deposited in the United States mail as
required above. Rejection or other refusal to accept or the inability to
deliver because of changed address of which no notice was given as herein
required shall be deemed to be receipt of the notice, demand or request
sent. By giving to the other party hereto at least fifteen (15) days'
prior written notice thereof in accordance with the provisions hereof, the
parties hereto shall have the right from time to time to change their
respective addresses and each shall have the right to specify as its
address any other address within the United States of America.
4.6 SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. The terms, provisions, indemnities,
covenants and conditions hereof shall be binding upon Grantor and the
successors and assigns of Grantor, including all successors in interest of
Grantor in and to all or any part of the Property, and shall inure to the
benefit of Grantee, its directors, officers, shareholders, employees and
agents and their respective successors and assigns and shall constitute
covenants running with the land. All references in this Security Deed to
Grantor or Grantee shall be deemed to include all such parties' successors
and assigns, and the term "Grantee" as used herein shall also mean and
refer to any lawful holder or owner, including pledgees and participants,
of any of the indebtedness secured hereby. If Grantor consists of more
than one person or entity, each will be jointly and severally liable to
perform the obligations of Grantor.
4.7 SEVERABILITY. A determination that any provision of this
Security Deed is unenforceable or invalid shall not affect the
enforceability or validity of any other provision, and any determination
that the application of any provision of this Security Deed to any person
or circumstance is illegal or unenforceable shall not affect the
enforceability or validity of such provision as it may apply to any other
persons or circumstances.
4.8 GENDER. Within this Security Deed, words of any gender shall
be held and construed to include any other gender, and words in the
singular shall be held and construed to include the plural, and vice versa,
unless the context otherwise requires.
4.9 WAIVER: DISCONTINUANCE OF PROCEEDINGS. Grantee may waive any
single Event of Default by Grantor hereunder without waiving any other
prior or subsequent Event of Default. Grantee may remedy any Event of
Default by Grantor hereunder without waiving the Event of Default remedied.
Neither the failure by Grantee to exercise, nor the delay by Grantee in
exercising, any right, power or remedy upon any Event of Default by Grantor
hereunder shall be construed as a waiver of such Event of Default or as a
waiver of the right to exercise any such right, power or remedy at a later
date. No single or partial exercise by Grantee of any right, power or
remedy hereunder shall exhaust the same or shall preclude any other or
further exercise thereof, and every such right, power or remedy hereunder
may be exercised at any time and from time to time. No modification or
waiver of any provision hereof nor consent to any departure by Grantor
therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in
writing and signed by Grantee, and then such waiver or consent shall be
effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose given.
No notice to nor demand on Grantor in any case shall of itself entitle
Grantor to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other
circumstances. Acceptance by Grantee of any payment in an amount less than
the amount then due on any of the secured indebtedness shall be deemed an
acceptance on account only and shall not in any way affect the existence of
an Event of Default hereunder. In case Grantee shall have proceeded to
invoke any right, remedy or recourse permitted hereunder or under the other
Loan Documents and shall thereafter elect to discontinue or abandon the
same for any reason, Grantee shall have the unqualified right to do so and,
in such an event, Grantor and Grantee shall be restored to their former
positions with respect to the indebtedness secured hereby, the Loan
Documents, the Property and otherwise, and the rights, remedies, recourses
and powers of Grantee shall continue as if the same ad never been invoked.
4.10 SECTION HEADINGS. The headings of the sections and
paragraphs of this Security Deed are for convenience of reference only, are
not to be considered a part hereof and shall not limit or otherwise affect
any of the terms hereof.
4.11 GOVERNING LAW. This Security Deed will be governed by and
construed in accordance with the laws of the State in which the Real Estate
is located provided that to the extent any of such laws may now or
hereafter be preempted by Federal law, in which case such Federal law shall
so govern and be controlling; and provided further that the laws of the
state in which the Real Estate is located shall govern as to the creation,
priority and enforcement of liens and security interests in property
located in such state.
4.12 COUNTING OF DAYS. The term "days" when used herein shall
mean calendar days. If any time period ends on a Saturday, Sunday or
holiday officially recognized by the state within which the Real Estate is
located, the period shall be deemed to end on the next succeeding business
day. The term "business day" when used herein shall mean a weekday, Monday
through Friday, except a legal holiday or a day on which banking
institutions in Georgia are authorized by law to be closed.
4.13 RELATIONSHIP OF THE PARTIES. The relationship between
Grantor and Grantee is that of a borrower and a lender only and neither of
those parties is, nor shall it hold itself out to be, the agent, employee,
joint venturer or partner of the other party.
4.14 APPLICATION OF THE PROCEEDS OF THE NOTE. To the extent that
proceeds of the Note are used to pay indebtedness secured by any
outstanding lien, security interest, charge or prior encumbrance against
the Property, such proceeds have been advanced by Grantee at Grantor's
request and Grantee shall be subrogated to any and all rights, security
interests and liens owned by any owner or holder of such outstanding liens,
security interests, charges or encumbrances, irrespective of whether said
liens, security interests, charges or encumbrances are released.
4.15 UNSECURED PORTION OF INDEBTEDNESS. If any part of the
secured indebtedness cannot be lawfully secured by this Security Deed or if
any part of the Property cannot be lawfully subject to the lien and
security interest hereof to the full extent of such indebtedness, then all
payments made shall be applied on said indebtedness first in discharge of
that portion thereof which is unsecured by this Security Deed.
4.16 CROSS DEFAULT. An Event of Default hereunder shall be a
default under each of the other Loan Documents.
4.17 INTEREST AFTER SALE. In the event the Property or any part
thereof shall be sold upon foreclosure as provided hereunder, to the extent
permitted by law, the sum for which the same shall have been sold shall,
for purposes of redemption (pursuant to the laws of the state in which the
Property is located), bear interest at the Default Interest Rate.
4.18 INCONSISTENCY WITH OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS. In the event of
any inconsistency between the provisions hereof and the provisions in any
of the other Loan Documents, it is intended that the provisions selected by
Grantee in its sole subjective discretion shall be controlling.
4.19 CONSTRUCTION OF THIS DOCUMENT. This document may be
construed as a mortgage, security deed, deed of trust, chattel mortgage,
conveyance, assignment, security agreement, pledge, financing statement,
hypothecation or contract, or any one or more of the foregoing, in order to
fully effectuate the liens and security interests created hereby and the
purposes and agreements herein set forth.
4.20 NO MERGER. It is the desire and intention of the parties
hereto that this Security Deed and the lien hereof do not merge in fee
simple title to the Property. It is hereby understood and agreed that
should Grantee acquire any additional or other interests in or to the
Property or the ownership thereof, then, unless a contrary intent is
manifested by Grantee as evidenced by an appropriate document duly
recorded, this Security Deed and the lien hereof shall not merge in such
other or additional interests in or to the Property, toward the end that
this Security Deed may be foreclosed as if owned by a stranger to said
other or additional interests.
4.21 RIGHTS WITH RESPECT TO JUNIOR ENCUMBRANCES. Any person or
entity purporting to have or to take a junior mortgage or other lien upon
the Property or any interest therein shall be subject to the rights of
Grantee to amend, modify, increase, vary, alter or supplement this Security
Deed, the Note or any of the other Loan Documents and to extend the
maturity date of the indebtedness secured hereby and to increase the amount
of the indebtedness secured hereby and to waive or forebear the exercise of
any of its rights and remedies hereunder or under any of the other Loan
Documents and to release any collateral or security for the indebtedness
secured hereby, in each and every case without obtaining the consent of the
holder of such junior lien and without the lien or security interest of
this Security Deed losing its priority over the rights of any such junior
lien.
4.22 GRANTEE MAY FILE PROOFS OF CLAIM. In the case of any
receivership, insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement,
adjustment, composition or other proceedings affecting Grantor or the
principals or general partners in Grantor, or their respective creditors or
property, Grantee, to the extent permitted by law, shall be entitled to
file such proofs of claim and other documents as may be necessary or
advisable in order to have the claims of Grantee allowed in such
proceedings for the entire secured indebtedness at the date of the
institution of such proceedings and for any additional amount which may
become due and payable by Grantor hereunder after such date.
4.23 FIXTURE FILING. This Security Deed shall be effective from
the date of its recording as a financing statement filed as a fixture
filing with respect to all goods constituting part of the Property which
are or are to become fixtures.
4.24 AFTER-ACQUIRED PROPERTY. All property acquired by Grantor
after the date of this Security Deed which by the terms of this Security
Deed shall be subject to the lien and the security interest created hereby,
shall immediately upon the acquisition thereof by Grantor and without
further mortgage, conveyance or assignment become subject to the lien and
security interest created by this Security Deed. Nevertheless, Grantor
shall execute, acknowledge, deliver and record or file, as appropriate, all
and every such further mortgages, security agreements, financing
statements, assignments and assurances, as Grantee shall require for
accomplishing the purposes of this Security Deed.
4.25 NO REPRESENTATION. By accepting delivery of any item
required to be observed, performed or fulfilled or to be given to Grantee
pursuant to the Loan Documents, including, but not limited to, any
officer's certificates balance sheet, statement of profit and loss or other
financial statement, survey, appraisal or insurance policy, Grantee shall
not 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 of delivery thereof
shall not be or constitute any warranty, consent or affirmation with
respect thereto by Grantee.
4.26 COUNTERPARTS. This Security Deed 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. Any signature page of this
Security Deed may be detached from any counterpart of this Security Deed
without impairing the legal effect of any signatures thereon and may be
attached to another counterpart of this Security Deed identical in form
hereto but having attached to it one or more additional signature pages.
4.27 PERSONAL LIABILITY. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained in this Security Deed, the liability of Grantor and its
officer, directors, general partners, managers, members and principals for
the indebtedness secured hereby and for the performance of the other
agreements, covenants and obligations contained herein and in the other
Loan Documents shall be limited as set forth in Section 2.04 of the Note.
4.28 RECORDING AND FILING. Grantor will cause the Loan Documents
and all amendments and supplements thereto and substitutions therefor to be
recorded, filed, re-recorded and re-filed in such manner and in such places
as Grantee shall reasonably request, and will pay on demand all such
recording, filing, re-recording and re-filing taxes, fees and other
charges. Grantor shall reimburse Grantee, or its servicing agent, for the
costs incurred in obtaining a tax service company to verify the status of
payment of taxes and assessments on the Property.
4.29 ENTIRE AGREEMENT AND MODIFICATION. This Security Deed and
the other Loan Documents contain the entire agreements between the parties
relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof and all prior agreements
relative hereto and thereto which are not contained herein or therein are
terminated. This Security Deed 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.
4.30 MAXIMUM INTEREST. The provisions of this Security Deed and
of all agreements between Grantor and Grantee, 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 Grantee 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 Grantee 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 ipso facto the obligation to be performed or
fulfilled shall be reduced to such limit and if, from any circumstance
whatsoever, Grantee 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 Grantee 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 Grantee 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 Grantee.
4.31 INTEREST PAYABLE BY GRANTEE. Grantee shall cause funds in
the Replacement Reserve to be deposited into an interest bearing account of
the type customarily maintained by Grantee 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 Grantee and added to the balance in the
Replacement Reserve and shall be disbursed for payment of the items for
which other funds in the Replacement Reserve are to be disbursed.
4.32 SECONDARY MARKET. Grantee 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 Grantee herein shall refer to and include, without limitation, any such
servicer, to the extent applicable.
4.33 ATTORNEYS' FEES. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained in this Security Deed, in the event Grantor has an obligation to
pay attorneys' fees or legal fees under this Security Deed or any of the
other Loan Documents, such obligation shall be in an amount equal to
reasonable attorneys' fees actually incurred.
4.34 FURTHER STIPULATIONS. The additional covenants, agreements
and provisions set forth in EXHIBITS C AND D attached hereto and made a
part hereof, if any, shall be a part of this Security Deed and shall, in
the event of any conflict between such further stipulations and any of the
other provisions of this Security Deed, be deemed to control.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Grantor has executed this Security Deed as of
the day and year first above written.
