WITNESSETH:


 


That for and in consideration
of the sum of ONE HUNDRED AND NO/100 DOLLARS ($100.00) in hand paid and the other considerations hereinafter mentioned, receipt

TOGETHER WITH all rights,
title and interest of Grantor in and to the minerals, crops, timber and emblements now or hereafter located on the premises;


 


TOGETHER WITH all gas and
electric fixtures, radiators, heaters, space heaters, engines and machinery, boilers, ranges, ovens, elevators, motors, bathtubs,
sinks, water closets, basins, pipes, faucets and other air-conditioning, plumbing, and heating fixtures, drapes, mirrors, mantles,
refrigerating plans, refrigerators, iceboxes, dishwashers, carpeting, furniture, furnishings, appliances, fixtures, laundry equipment,
cooking apparatus and appurtenances, and all building material and equipment now or hereafter delivered to the premises and intended

therefor and all of the estate, right, title and interest of the Grantor in and to all property of any nature whatsoever, now or
hereafter situated on the premises or intended to be used in connection with the operation thereof, all of which shall be deemed
to be fixtures and an accession to the freehold and a part of the realty as between the parties hereto and all persons claiming
by, through or under them and shall be deemed to be a portion of the security for the indebtedness herein mentioned and secured
by this deed, but in no event shall Grantee exercise any rights hereunder except during an Event of Default (as defined in the
Loan Agreement) unless otherwise described herein.


 


TOGETHER WITH all and singular
the rights, members and appurtenances whatsoever, in any way belonging, relating or appertaining to any of the premises hereinabove
mentioned or which hereafter shall in any way belong, relate or be appurtenant thereto, whether now owned or hereafter acquired
by the Grantor, including but not limited to all rents, profits, issues and revenues of the premises from time to time accruing,
whether under leases, tenancies or otherwise now existing or hereafter created, reserving only the right to the Grantor to collect
the same so long as the Grantor is not in default hereunder and so long as the same are not subject to garnishment, levy, attachment
or lien. In addition, Grantor hereby assigns, transfers and conveys to Grantee all Grantor’s right, title and interest in,
to and under all leases now or hereafter leasing or affecting the premises or any part thereof.


 


TO HAVE AND TO HOLD the
premises and all parts, rights, members and appurtenances thereof, to the use, benefit and behoof of the Grantee, its successors
and assigns, in fee simple forever; and the Grantor covenants that Grantor is lawfully seized and possessed of the premises IN
FEE SIMPLE FOREVER, and has good right to convey the same, that the same are unencumbered and that the Grantor will warrant and
defend the title thereto against the claims of all persons whomsoever, except as hereinafter expressly provided.


 


This conveyance is intended
(i) to constitute a security agreement as required under the Uniform Commercial Code of Georgia and (ii) to operate and is to be
construed as a deed passing title to the premises to the Grantee and is made under those provisions of the existing laws of the
State of Georgia relating to Deeds to Secure Debt, and not as a mortgage, and is given to secure (a) a debt evidenced by a Revolving
Line of Credit (hereinafter called the “Note” which is incorporated herein by reference) dated effective as of the
effective date hereof, executed by GREEN BRICK PARTNERS, INC., a Delaware corporation (“Borrower”), payable
to the order of Grantee in the stated principal sum of FIFTY MILLION AND 00/100 DOLLARS ($50,000,000.00), with the
final payment being due on or before July 30, 2017, (b) any and all renewals and extensions of the Note, either in whole or
in part, whether at the same, a higher or a lower rate of interest than is payable under the Note as originally executed; (c) any
consolidation of the Note; and (d) all obligations of Grantor under this Security Deed.

Should the indebtedness
secured by this Security Deed be paid according to the tenor and effect thereof when the same shall become due and payable, and
should Grantor perform all obligations in a timely manner, then this Security Deed shall be cancelled and surrendered.


 


The Grantor covenants with
the Grantee as follows:


 


ARTICLE I


 


1.1   Taxes, Liens and Other
Charges.   The Grantor shall pay and discharge when due all taxes, liens, assessments and charges of every
character already levied or assessed or that may hereafter be levied or assessed upon or against said premises and all utility
charges, whether public or private; and upon demand will furnish the Grantee receipted bills evidencing such payment. The Grantor
shall not and may not suffer any mechanic’s, materialmens’s, laborer’s, statutory or other lien to be created
or to remain outstanding upon any part of the premises.


 


1.2   Insurance.   To
the extent there are any vertical improvements on the premises, the Grantor shall keep all buildings and improvements whether
now standing on said premises or hereafter erected, continuously insured for the full insurable value of the premises and against
loss or damage by fire, by the perils covered by extended coverage insurance, by builders risk insurance, by loss of rents or
business interruption insurance and by malicious mischief insurance and against such other hazards as the Grantee in its reasonable
discretion required from time to time for the benefit of the Grantee. The foregoing condition of vertical improvements shall not
apply to the requirement for Grantor to provide general liability insurance as required by Grantee. Any policies furnished to
Grantee will become its property in the event Grantee becomes owner of said premises by foreclosure or otherwise. Grantee is entitled
in its reasonable discretion, to apply any insurance proceeds received under this Section 1.2 to the payment of the indebtedness
secured hereby or to allow a portion of such proceeds to be used for restoration.


 


1.3   Care of Premises.   The
Grantor shall keep and maintain the improvements now or hereafter erected on the premises in commercially reasonable condition
and repair, shall not threaten, permit, commit or suffer any waste and shall not do or suffer to be done anything which increases
the risk of fire or other hazard to the premises or any part thereof. The Grantor shall not, without the prior written consent
of the Grantee, remove nor demolish nor alter the design or structural character of any building (nor or hereafter erected), fixture,
chattel or other part of the premises unless as a part of Grantor’s ordinary course of business. If the premises or any
part thereof is damaged by fire or any other cause, the Grantor shall give immediate written notice of the same to the Grantee.
The Grantee or its representative is hereby authorized to enter upon and inspect the premises at any time during normal business
hours with prior notice to Grantor provided that such entry and inspection shall not unreasonably interfere with Grantor’s
operations on the premises. The Grantor shall promptly comply with all restrictive covenants, present and future laws, ordinances,
rules and regulations of any governmental authority affecting the premises or any part thereof. If fire or other casualty damages
all or any part of the premises, the Grantor shall, upon request of Grantee, promptly restore the premises to the substantially
equivalent of its condition immediately prior to such damage, and if a part of the premises is damaged through condemnation, the
Grantor shall, upon request of Grantee, promptly restore, repair or alter the remaining property in a manner reasonably satisfactory
to the Grantee.

1.4   Further Assurances.   At any time, and from time to time, upon request by the Grantee, the Grantor shall, at the expense of Grantor, make, execute and
deliver or cause to be made, executed and delivered, to the Grantee, any and all further instruments, certificates and other documents
as may, in the reasonable opinion of the Grantee, be necessary or desirable in order to affirm, effectuate, complete, or perfect
or to continue and preserve the obligations of the maker of the Note and the security interest of this Security Deed.


 


1.5   Expenses.   The
Grantor shall (a) pay or reimburse the Grantee for all reasonable attorneys’ fees and actual, out-of-pocket costs and expenses
incurred by the Grantee in any proceedings involving the estate or a decedent, an insolvent or a bankrupt, or in any action, legal
proceeding or dispute of any kind in which the Grantee is made a party, or appears as party plaintiff or defendant, affecting
this Security Deed, the interest created herein, the premises or the exercise or enforcement of Grantee’s rights under this
Security Deed including but not limited to the exercise of the power of sale of this Security Deed, any condemnation action involving
the premises or any action to protect the security hereof, and (b) indemnify and hold Grantee harmless from all actual, out-of-pocket
losses and damages incurred by the Grantee in any such proceedings, action or dispute; and any such fees, costs, expenses, losses
or damages incurred by Grantee will be added to the indebtedness secured by this Security Deed.


 


1.6   Subrogation.   The Grantee will be subrogated to the claims and liens of all parties whose claims or liens are discharged or paid with the proceeds
of the indebtedness secured hereby.


 


1.7   Performance by Grantee
of Defaults by Grantor.   If the Grantor defaults in the payment of any tax, lien, assessment or charge levied or assessed against
the premises, in the payment of any utility charge, whether public or private, in the payment of required insurance premiums,
in the procurement of required insurance coverage, or in the performance or observance of any other covenant, condition or term
of this Security Deed, then the Grantee shall provide Grantor with written notice of such default and an opportunity to cure as
provided for in the Loan Agreement. If Grantee fails or refuses to timely provide such cure and evidence after the expiration
of the applicable cure period, then Grantee, at its option, may perform or observe the same, and all payments made or costs incurred
by the Grantee in connection therewith, are secured hereby and shall be, without demand, immediately repaid by the Grantor to
the Grantee with interest thereon at the rate of ten percent (10%) per annum. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Grantor’s
failure to timely pay any such amounts referenced above would cause Grantor’s required insurance hereunder to lapse, or
subject Grantor, Grantee, or the Property to a lien, or otherwise reasonably be considered to constitute an emergency, then such
notice of default shall not be required. The Grantee is hereby entitled to enter and to authorize others to enter upon the premises
or any part thereof for the purpose of performing or observing any such defaulted covenant, condition or term, without thereby
becoming liable to the Grantor or any other person in possession holding under the Grantor.

1.8   Condemnation.   Grantor, immediately upon obtaining knowledge of the institution any proceedings for the condemnation of the premises or any portion
thereof, shall notify Grantor of the pendency of such proceedings. The Grantee is entitled to all compensation, awards, and other
payments or relief thereof and is hereby authorized, at its option, to commence, appear in and prosecute, in its own or the Grantor’s
name, any action or proceeding relating to any condemnation, and to settle or compromise any claim in connection therewith. All
such compensation, awards, damages, claims, rights of action and proceeds and the right thereto are hereby assigned by the Grantor
to the Grantee, who, after deducting therefrom all its reasonable, out-of-pocket expenses, including reasonable attorney’s
fees, may release any monies so received by it without affecting the security interest of this deed and may apply the same in such
manner as the Grantee reasonably determines to the reduction of the indebtedness secured hereby, to any prepayment fee herein or
in the Note provided and any balance of such monies then remaining will be paid to the Grantor.


 


1.9   Authority.   Grantor
hereby warrants and represents that: the execution and delivery of this Security Deed and Note have been duly authorized and that
there is no provision in Grantor’s articles or certificate of incorporation or by-laws, as same may have been amended, requiring
further consent for such action by any other entity or person; Grantor is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing
under the laws of the State of Georgia and has (a) all necessary licenses, authorizations, registrations and approvals and
(b) full power and authority to own its properties and carry on its business as presently conducted; and the execution and
delivery by and performance of its obligations under this Security Deed will not result in Grantor being in default under any
provision of its articles or certificate of incorporation or by-laws, as the same may have been amended, or any other security
deed, mortgage, deed of trust or security, credit or other agreement to which it is a party. Grantor further warrants and represents
that Grantor may reasonably be expected to benefit, directly or indirectly, from granting a lien or security interest in the Property
or other assets of Grantor as security for the Note, and it is in the best interest of Grantor for Grantor to grant such lien
and security interest.

1.10   Security Agreement.


 


(a)      Insofar as the machinery, apparatus,
goods, chattels, equipment, fittings, fixtures, building supplies and materials, articles of personal property, contract rights,
accounts and general intangibles either referred to or described in this Security Deed, or in any way connected with the use and
enjoyment of the premises is concerned, this Security Deed is hereby made and declared to be a security agreement, encumbering
each and every item of personal property included herein, in compliance with the provisions of the Uniform Commercial Code as enacted
in the State of Georgia. Grantor and Grantee shall execute and file a financing statement or statements reciting this Security
Deed to be a security agreement affecting all of said personal property aforementioned. The remedies for any violation of the security
agreement herein contained are (i) as prescribed herein, (ii) as prescribed by general law, and (iii) as prescribed
by the specific statutory consequences now or hereafter enacted and specified in said Uniform Commercial Code, all at Grantee’s
sole election. The filing of such financing statement(s) in the records normally having to do with personal property shall never
be construed as in anywise derogating from or impairing this declaration and hereby stated intention of Grantor and Grantee that
everything used in connection with the production of income from the premises and/or adapted for use therein and/or which is described
or reflected in this Security Deed, is, and at all times and for all purposes and in all proceedings both legal or equitable will
be, regarded as part of the real estate irrespective of whether (a) any such item is physically attached to the premises, (b) serial
numbers are used for the better identification of certain items capable of being thus identified in a recital contained herein,
or (c) any such item is referred to or reflected in any such financing statement(s) so filed at any time. Similarly, the mention
in any such financing statement(s) of the rights in and to (aa) the proceeds of any applicable fire, casualty and/or hazard insurance
policy, or (bb) any award in condemnation proceedings for a taking or for loss of value, or (cc) Grantor’s interest as lessor
in any present or future lease or rights to income growing out of the use and/or occupancy of the premises, whether pursuant to
lease or otherwise, shall never be construed as in anywise altering any of the rights of Grantee as determined by this instrument
or impugning the priority of Grantee’s lien granted hereby or by any other recorded document, but such mention in such financing
statement(s) is declared to be for the protection of Grantee in the event any court shall at any time hold with respect to the
aforegoing (aa), (bb) or (cc), that notice of Grantee’s priority of interest to be effective against a particular class of
persons, must be filed in the Uniform Commercial Code records. This Security Deed, upon filing, shall constitute a “fixture
filing” pursuant to Section 11-9-502(c) of the Uniform Commercial Code. For purposes of satisfaction of the requirements
of said section, the names and addresses of Grantor, as “debtor”, the Grantee, as “secured party” are set
forth in the introductory paragraph to this Security Deed and the “secured property” is all of the premises that are
or are to become fixtures.


 


(b)      The assignment and security interest
herein granted will not be deemed or construed to constitute Grantee as a “trustee in possession” of the premises,
to obligate Grantee to lease the premises or attempt to do same, or to take any action, incur any expense or perform or discharge
any obligation, duty or liability whatsoever under any of the leases or otherwise.


 


1.11   Assignment of Rents.   Grantor hereby assigns to Grantee, as further security for the payment of the indebtedness secured hereby, the rents, rental payments
and charges, issues and profits of the premises, together with all leases and other documents evidencing such rents, rental payments
and charges, issues and profits now or hereafter in effect and any and all deposits held as security under said leases and other
documents. Nothing contained in the foregoing sentence will be construed to bind Grantee to the performance of any of the covenants,
conditions or provisions contained in any such lease or other document or otherwise to impose any obligation on Grantee, except
that Grantee is accountable for any money actually received pursuant to such assignment. Grantee may (i) to enter upon and take
possession of the premises for the purpose of collecting the said rents, rental payments and charges, issues and profits, (ii) to
dispossess by the usual summary proceedings any tenant or occupant defaulting in the payment thereof to Grantee, (iii) to let the
premises, or any part thereof, and (iv) to apply said rents, rental payments and charges, issues and profits, after payment of
all necessary charges and expenses, on account of said indebtedness. Such assignment and grant will continue in effect until the
indebtedness secured hereby is paid. Until the occurrence of a default hereunder, Grantor is entitled to collect and receive said
rents, rental payments and charges, issues and profits. Grantor agrees to use said rents, rental payments and charges, issues and
profits in payment of principal and interest becoming due under this Security Deed and in payment of taxes, assessments, water
rates, sewer rents and carrying charges becoming due against the premises. Grantee may revoke such right of Grantor to collect
and receive such rents, rental payments and charges, issues and profits upon the occurrence of a default hereunder by giving written
notice of such revocation, served personally upon or sent by registered or certified mail to the record owner of the premises.

1.12   Leases and Other
Agreements Effecting the Property.   Grantor shall use commercially reasonable effort to duly and punctually
perform all terms, covenants, conditions and agreements binding upon it under any lease or any other agreement of any nature whatsoever
which involves or effects the premises or any part thereof. Grantor shall, at the request of Grantee, furnish Grantee with executed
copies of all Leases now or hereafter created upon the premises or any part thereof. No substantive modifications of any present
or future lease may be made without Grantee’s consent. Any and all leases must contain language subordinating such lease,
at the option of Grantee, to the lien and security title of the Security Deed.

2.1   Event of Default.   An event of default under this Security Deed shall occur if an “Event of Default” occurs under that certain Loan Agreement,
dated effective on or about the date hereof, by and between, among others, Grantor, Borrower and Grantee, but subject, in any
event, to all applicable notice and cure periods under the Loan Agreement.


 


2.2   Intentionally Deleted.


 


2.3   Right of Grantee to
Enter and Take Possession


 


(a)      If any event of default occurs and
is continuing, after the expiration of all applicable notice and cure periods, the Grantor, upon demand of the Grantee, must forthwith
surrender to the Grantee the actual possession of the premises and if, and to the extent, permitted by law, the Grantee may enter
and take possession of the premises and may exclude the Grantor and the Grantor’s agents and employees wholly therefrom.
Upon every such entering and taking of possession, the Grantee may hold, store, use, operate, manage, control and maintain the
premises and conduct the business thereof, and from time to time;


 


(i)   make all necessary
and proper repairs, renewals, replacements, additions, betterments and improvements thereto and thereon and purchase or otherwise

    	7



    	 



    

 


(iii)   manage and operate
the premises and exercise all the rights and powers of the Grantor in its name or otherwise, with respect to the same, and


 


(iv)   enter into any and
all agreements with respect to the exercise by others of any of the powers herein granted the Grantee, all as the Grantee may from
time to time reasonably determine to be to its best advantage;


 


and the Grantee may collect and receive all
of the income, rents, rental payments and charges, profits, issues and revenues of the premises, including those past due as well
as those accruing thereafter and, after deducting


 


(aa)   all actual and reasonable
expenses of taking, holding, managing and operating the premises (including reasonable compensation for the services of all persons
employed for such purposes);


 


(bb) the actual and reasonable cost
of all such maintenance, repairs, renewals, replacements, additions, betterments, improvements, purchases, and acquisitions;


 


(cc)   the reasonable cost
of such insurance;


 


(dd)   such taxes, assessments
and other reasonable, out-of-pocket charges prior to the lien of this Security Deed as the Grantee may reasonably determine to
pay,


 


(ee)   other proper
and reasonable charges upon the premises or any part thereof, and


 


(ff)   the reasonable
compensation and expenses of attorneys and agents of the Grantee, shall apply the remainder of the money so received by the Grantee,
first to the payment of accrued interest and late charges, and finally to the payment of overdue installments of principal.


 


(b)   For the purpose of carrying out
the provisions of this Paragraph 2.3, the Grantor hereby constitutes and appoints the Grantee the true and lawful attorney in fact
of the Grantor to do and perform, from time to time, any and all actions necessary and incidental to such purpose and does, by
these presents, ratify and confirm any and all actions of said attorney in fact in the premises, provided, however, it is expressly
agreed and acknowledged that such appointment is only effective after and during the continuation of an event of default.


 


(c)   Whenever all such events of default
are cured and satisfied, the Grantee shall surrender possession of the premises to the Grantor, provided that the right of the
Grantee to take possession, from time to time, pursuant to subparagraph 2.3(a) shall exist if any subsequent event of default.


 






    	8



    	 



    

 


2.4   Appointment of a Receiver;
Collection of Rents, Issues, Profits and Revenues.   If an event of default occurs and is continuing, after the expiration of
all applicable notice and cure periods, the Grantee, is entitled without notice to obtain from any court of competent jurisdiction
the appointment of a trustee, receiver, liquidator or conservator of the premises, without regard for the adequacy of the security
for the indebtedness secured hereby and without regard for the solvency of Grantor or any other person, firm or other entity liable
for the payment of the indebtedness secured hereby, and without regard for any other statutory or common law requirements otherwise
applicable to the appointment of a trustee, receiver, liquidator or conservator, to take possession of and to operate the premises
and to collect the rents, profits, issues, and revenues thereof; all such rents, issues, profits and revenues so collected by
such trustee, receiver, liquidator or conservator are deemed to be collected and held by such receiver for the benefit of Grantee
and applied in the manner provided in subparagraph 2.3(a). The Grantor will pay to the Grantee upon demand all reasonable,
out-of-pocket expenses, including reasonable receiver’s fees, attorneys’ fees, costs and agents’ compensation,
incurred pursuant to the provisions in this Paragraph 2.4; and all such expenses shall be secured by this Security Deed. In the
event that the rents, rental payments and charges, issues, profits and revenues of the premises are collected by a trustee, receiver,
liquidator or conservator (whether appointed pursuant to the provisions of subparagraph 2.4(a) or otherwise), or a trustee or
a debtor in possession pursuant to a bankruptcy, arrangement, reorganization or insolvency proceedings, all such rents, rental
payments and charges, issues, profits and revenues so collected deemed to be collected and held by such receiver, liquidator,
conservator, trustee or debtor in possession for the benefit of Grantee and shall be applied in the manner provided in subparagraph
2.3(a)


 


2.5   Power of Sale.   When the indebtedness secured hereby becomes due, whether by acceleration or otherwise, the Grantee, at its option, may sell the
premises or any part of the premises at public sale or sales before the door of the courthouse of the County in which the premises
or any part of the premises is situated, to the highest bidder for cash, in order to pay the indebtedness secured hereby and any
other amounts due thereon or thereunder and insurance premiums, liens, assessments, taxes and charges, including utility charges,
if any, with accrued interest thereon, and all expenses of the sale and of all proceedings in connection therewith, including
reasonable attorney’s fees, if incurred, after advertising the time, place and terms of sale once a week for four (4) weeks
immediately preceding such sale (but without regard to the number of days) in a newspaper in which Sheriff’s sales are advertised
in said County. The Grantee may bid for and acquire the premises or any part thereof and in lieu of paying cash therefor may make
settlement for the purchase price by crediting upon the indebtedness secured by this Security Deed the net sales price after deducting
therefrom the expenses of the sale and the costs of the action and any other sums which Grantee is authorized to deduct under
this Security Deed. In case Grantee shall have proceeded to enforce any right, power or remedy under this Security Deed by foreclosure,
entry or otherwise, or in the event Grantee commences advertising of the intended exercise of the sale under power provided hereunder,
and such proceeding or advertisement shall have been withdrawn, discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or shall have been determined
adversely to Grantee, then in every such case, (i) all rights, powers and remedies of Grantee shall continue as if no such proceeding
had been taken, (ii) neither this Security Deed, nor the Note, nor the secured indebtedness, nor any other instrument concerned
therewith, shall be or shall be deemed to have been reinstated or otherwise affected by such withdrawal, discontinuance or abandonment;
and Grantor hereby expressly waives the benefit of any statute or rule of law now provided, or which may hereafter be provided,
which would produce a result contrary to or in conflict with the above.

2.6   Authority to Convey.   At any such public sale, the Grantee may execute and deliver to the purchaser a conveyance of the premises or any part of the
premises in fee simple with full warranties of title and to this end, the Grantor hereby constitutes and appoints the Grantee
the agent and attorney in fact of the Grantor to make such sale and conveyance, and thereby to divest the Grantor of all right,
title and equity that the Grantor may have in and to the premises and to vest the same in the purchaser or purchasers at such
sale or sales, and all the acts and doings of said agent and attorney in fact are hereby ratified and confirmed and any recitals
in said conveyance or conveyances as to facts essential to a valid sale shall be binding on the Grantor. The aforesaid power of
sale and agency hereby granted are coupled with an interest and are irrevocable by death or otherwise, are granted as cumulative
of the other remedies provided by law for collection of the indebtedness secured hereby and shall not be exhausted by one exercise
thereof but may be exercised until full payment of all sums secured hereby


 


2.7   Application of the
Proceeds of Sale.   Upon any such public sale pursuant to the aforementioned power of sale and agency, the proceeds of said
sale are applied first to payment of the reasonable expenses of such sale and of all proceedings in connection therewith, including
reasonable attorneys’ fees, then to that portion of the indebtedness secured hereby which represents accrued unpaid interest
and late charges, then to the remaining indebtedness secured hereby, and finally, the remainder, if any, are paid to the Grantor.


 


2.8   Grantor as Tenant
Holding Over.   If a public sale under the aforesaid power of sale and agency occurs, the Grantor is deemed
a tenant holding over and shall forthwith deliver possession to the purchaser or purchasers at such sale or be summarily dispossessed
according to the provisions of law applicable to tenants holding over.


 


2.9   No Effect.   No
recovery of any judgment by Grantee against Borrower or Grantor and no levy of an execution under any judgment upon the Secured
Property or upon any other property of Borrower or Grantor shall affect in any manner or to any extent, the lien and title of
this Security Deed upon the Secured Property or any part thereof, or any liens, titles, rights, powers or remedies of Grantee
hereunder, but such liens, titles, rights, powers and remedies of Grantee shall continue unimpaired as before.


 


2.10   Tenants.   Grantee, at its
option, is authorized to foreclose this Security subject to the rights of any tenants of the Secured Property, and the failure
to make any such tenants parties to any such foreclosure proceedings and to foreclose their rights will not be, nor be asserted
to be by Grantor, a defense to any proceedings instituted by Grantee to collect the sums secured hereby.


 


2.11   Discontinuance of
Proceedings and Restoration of the Parties.   If the Grantee proceeds to enforce any right or remedy under this Security Deed
by receiver, entry or otherwise, and such proceedings are discontinued or abandoned for any reason or determined adversely to
the Grantee, then and in every such case the Grantor and the Grantee are restored to their former positions and rights hereunder,
and all rights, powers and remedies of the Grantee continue as if no such proceeding had been taken.


 






    	10



    	 



    

 


2.12   Remedies Cumulative.   No right, power or remedy conferred upon or reserved by the Grantee by this Security Deed is intended to be exclusive of any other
right, power or remedy, but each and every such right, power and remedy are cumulative and concurrent and in addition to any other
right, power and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute.


 


2.13   WAIVER.   BY EXECUTION
OF THIS SECURITY DEED, GRANTOR EXPRESSLY: (A) ACKNOWLEDGES THE RIGHT TO ACCELERATE THE INDEBTEDNESS EVIDENCED BY THE NOTE AND
THE POWER OF ATTORNEY GIVEN HEREIN TO GRANTEE TO SELL THE SECURED PROPERTY BY NONJUDICIAL FORECLOSURE UPON DEFAULT BY GRANTOR
WITHOUT ANY JUDICIAL HEARING AND WITHOUT ANY NOTICE (EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE PROVIDED HEREIN); (B) EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT PROVIDED

3.3   Invalid Provisions
to Affect No Others.   If fulfillment of any provision hereof or any transaction related hereto or to the Note, at the time
performance of such provisions are due, involve transcending the limit of validity prescribed by law, then ipso facto, the obligation
to be fulfilled will be reduced to the limit of such validity; and if any clause or provision herein contained operates or would
prospectively operate to invalidate this Security Deed in whole or in part, then such clause or provision only will be held for
naught, as though not herein contained, and the remainder of this Security Deed remains operative and in full force and effect.


 


3.4   Number and Gender.   Whenever

3.5   Severability.   Any provision of this Security Deed which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, is, as to such jurisdiction, ineffective
to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without validating the remaining provisions hereof or effecting the validity
or enforceability of such provisions in any other jurisdiction.


 


3.6   Legal Construction.   The
enforcement of this Security Deed is governed, construed and interpreted by the laws of the State of Georgia. Nothing in this
Security Deed, the Note or in any other agreement between Grantor and Grantee requires Grantor to pay, or Grantee to accept interest
in an amount which would subject Grantee to any penalty under applicable law. If the payment of any interest due hereunder or
under the Note or any such other agreement would subject Grantee to any penalty under applicable law, then automatically the obligations
of Grantor to make such payment are reduced at the highest rate authorized under applicable law.


 


3.7   Controlling Document.   To the extent anything contained herein is inconsistent with or contrary to the terms of the Loan Agreement, the terms of the
Loan Agreement shall control.


 


3.8   Partial Releases.   This
Security Deed shall be subject to the Partial Release provisions of the Loan Agreement, subject to and conditioned upon satisfaction
of each of the requirements contained in the Loan Agreement.
