THIS MORTGAGE dated December 31, 2012, is made and executed between NORTHWEST PROPERTY HOLDINGS, LLC, whose address is 3050 PEACHTREE ROAD NW, SUITE 355, ATLANTA, GA 30305; A GEORGIA LIMITED LIABILITY COMPANY            (referred to below as “Grantor”) and FIRST COMMERCIAL BANK, whose address is 303 W MARKET, P. O. BOX 574, DEXTER, MO 63841 (referred to below as “Lender”).

 

GRANT OF MORTGAGE. For valuable consideration, Grantor mortgages and conveys to Lender all of Grantor’s right, title, and interest in and to the following described real property, together with all existing or subsequently erected or affixed buildings, improvements and fixtures; all easements, rights of way, and appurtenances; all water, water rights, watercourses and ditch rights (including stock in utilities with ditch or irrigation rights); and all other rights, royalties, and profits relating to the real property, including without limitation all minerals, oil, gas, geothermal and similar matters, (the “Real Property”) located in OKLAHOMA County, State of Oklahoma:

 

See EXHIBIT A, which is attached to this Mortgage and made a part of this Mortgage as if fully set forth herein.

Loan No: 4536754

 

ASSIGNMENT OF RENTS.   In addition to the mortgaging of the Real Property to Lender, if Grantor’s loan does not constitute a consumer loan as defined in 14A O.S. Section 3-104 and is not made primarily for an agricultural purpose as defined in 14A O.S. Section 1-301(4) to a natural person or to a farm or ranching business corporation as defined in 18 O.S. Section 951, Grantor hereby grants to Lender as additional security for the Indebtedness secured by this Mortgage and empowers Lender to collect all Rents (as defined below) from the Property. This grant is known as an “Assignment of Rents,” but is sometimes technically denominated as a pledge since the assignment is conditional and not absolute. This Assignment of Rents is conditioned upon the occurrence of an Event of Default under this Mortgage and becomes effective thereafter, whether or not proceedings have been instituted to foreclose this Mortgage by judicial foreclosure or power of sale upon the earliest of:

 

(a) Lender taking possession of the Property, and Grantor agrees that upon default Lender or its agent shall have the right to take possession of the Property, collect the Rents, and apply the proceeds to the Indebtedness;

 

(b) the appointment of a receiver for the Property, and Grantor recognizes that upon the occurrence of an Event of Default under this Mortgage, a court may grant specific performance of Grantor’s agreement that Lender will have the right to take possession of the Property by appointment of a receiver in accordance with 12 O.S. Section 1551 (Sixth), which authorizes appointment in all other cases where receivers have been appointed by the usages of the courts of equity, and may also appoint a receiver upon the other grounds for appointment of a receiver set forth in 12 O.S. Section 1551 (Second); or

 

(c) Lender giving Grantor and any lessees of the Property written notice to pay Rents due after a specified date to Lender, and Grantor recognizes that consistent with 46 O.S. Section 4 when the Lender receives Rents after written notice and does not also enter into physical possession of the Property and exercise exclusive operating control, Lender shall not be deemed to be a “mortgagee in possession,” but will account to Grantor regarding Rents actually collected.

 

Grantor also recognizes that Lender may as part of this Assignment of Rents extend or renew or enter into new leases for periods and payments consistent with the terms and payments customary for leases of the Property. If Lender sends written notice to a lessee obligated to pay under any lease on the Property requesting lessee to direct all Rents payable under the lease to Lender, this Assignment of Rents, when it is effective, shall transfer to Lender the lessee’s obligation to pay Grantor the Rents, and Grantor and all lessees agree that no modification or termination or renewal of a lease prior to or subsequent to that time or advance payment and collection of Rents will be effective against Lender unless Lender consents in writing. If any lessee obligated to pay Lender does not do so, Lender shall have available all remedies to collect the Rents, including without limitation those available to a lessor upon a lessee’s failure to perform under a lease. If Grantor occupies the Property, Grantor also agrees to pay to Lender a reasonable rental for the use and occupancy of the Property if after default Lender makes a demand for such payment in writing.

 

Grantor agrees that this Assignment of Rents will be considered as separate and independent from the Mortgage to the extent that the Assignment of Rents shall continue in effect in favor of the purchaser of the Property upon foreclosure with respect to leases that are not terminated by foreclosure or, at the election of Lender made known before any sale upon foreclosure is concluded, shall continue in effect in favor of Lender with respect to leases that are not terminated by foreclosure until any deficiency owed Lender after foreclosure is satisfied by payments under the leases, at which time further due payments shall accrue to the purchaser of the Property or to the purchaser’s assigns.

 

THIS MORTGAGE, INCLUDING THE ASSIGNMENT OF RENTS AND THE SECURITY INTEREST IN THE PERSONAL PROPERTY, IS GIVEN TO SECURE (A) PAYMENT OF THE INDEBTEDNESS AND (B)

PERFORMANCE OF ANY AND ALL OBLIGATIONS UNDER THE NOTE, THE RELATED DOCUMENTS. AND THIS MORTGAGE. THIS MORTGAGE IS GIVEN AND ACCEPTED ON THE FOLLOWING TERMS:

 

PAYMENT AND PERFORMANCE.   Except as otherwise provided in this Mortgage, Grantor shall pay to Lender all amounts secured by this Mortgage as they become due and shall strictly perform all of Grantor’s obligations under this Mortgage.

 

POSSESSION AND MAINTENANCE OF THE PROPERTY.   Grantor agrees that Grantor’s possession and use of the Property shall be governed by the following provisions:

 

Duty to Maintain.   Grantor shall maintain the Property in tenantable condition and promptly perform all repairs, replacements, and maintenance necessary to preserve its value.

 

Compliance With Environmental Laws.   Grantor represents and warrants to Lender that: (1) During the period of Grantor’s ownership of the Property, there has been no use, generation, manufacture, storage, treatment, disposal, release or threatened release of any Hazardous Substance by any person on, under, about or from the Property; (2) Grantor has no knowledge of, or reason to believe that there has been, except as previously disclosed to and acknowledged by Lender in writing, (a) any breach or violation of any Environmental Laws, (b) any use, generation, manufacture, storage, treatment, disposal, release or threatened release of any Hazardous Substance on, under, about or from the Property by any prior owners or occupants of the Property, or (c) any actual or threatened litigation or claims of any kind by any person relating to such matters; and (3) Except as previously disclosed to and acknowledged by Lender in writing, (a) neither Grantor nor any tenant, contractor, agent or other authorized user of the Property shall use, generate, manufacture, store, treat, dispose of or release any Hazardous Substance on, under, about or from the Property; and (b) any such activity shall be conducted in compliance with all applicable federal, state, and local laws, regulations and ordinances, including without limitation all Environmental Laws. Grantor authorizes Lender and its agents to enter upon the Property to make such inspections and tests, at Grantor’s expense, as Lender may deem appropriate to determine compliance of the Property with this section of the Mortgage. Any inspections or tests made by Lender shall be for Lender’s purposes only and shall not be construed to create any responsibility or liability on the part of Lender to Grantor or to any other person. The representations and warranties contained herein are based on Grantor’s due diligence in investigating the Property for Hazardous Substances. Grantor hereby (1) releases and waives any future claims against Lender for indemnity or contribution in the event Grantor becomes liable for cleanup or other costs under any such laws; and (2) agrees to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Lender against any and all claims, losses, liabilities, damages, penalties, and expenses which Lender may directly or indirectly sustain or suffer resulting from a breach of this section of the Mortgage or as a consequence of any use, generation, manufacture, storage, disposal, release or threatened release occurring prior to Grantor’s ownership or interest in the Property, whether or not the same was or should have been known to Grantor. The provisions of this section of the Mortgage, including the obligation to indemnify and defend, shall survive the payment of the Indebtedness and the satisfaction and reconveyance of the lien of this Mortgage and shall not be affected by Lender’s acquisition of any interest in the Property, whether by foreclosure or otherwise.

 

Nuisance, Waste.   Grantor shall not cause, conduct or permit any nuisance nor commit, permit, or suffer any stripping of or waste on or to the Property or any portion of the Property. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Grantor will not remove, or grant to any other party the right to remove, any timber, minerals (including oil and gas), coal, clay, scoria, soil, gravel or rock products without Lender’s prior written consent. This restriction will not apply to rights and easements (such as gas and oil) not owned by Grantor and of which Grantor has informed Lender in writing prior to Grantor’s signing of this

Removal of Improvements.   Grantor shall not demolish or remove any Improvements from the Real Property without Lender’s prior written consent. As a condition to the removal of any Improvements, Lender may require Grantor to make arrangements satisfactory to Lender to replace such Improvements with Improvements of at least equal value.

Compliance with Governmental Requirements.   Grantor shall promptly comply with all laws, ordinances, and regulations, now or hereafter in effect, of all governmental authorities applicable to the use or occupancy of the Property, including without limitation, the Americans With Disabilities Act. Grantor may contest in good faith any such law, ordinance, or regulation and withhold compliance during any proceeding, including appropriate appeals, so long as Grantor has notified Lender in writing prior to doing so and so long as, in Lender’s sole opinion, Lender’s interests in the Property are not jeopardized. Lender may require Grantor to post adequate security or a surety bond, reasonably satisfactory to Lender, to protect Lender’s interest.

 

Duty to Protect.   Grantor agrees neither to abandon or leave unattended the Property. Grantor shall do all other acts, in addition to those acts set forth above in this section, which from the character and use of the Property are reasonably necessary to protect and preserve the Property.

 

DUE ON SALE - CONSENT BY LENDER.   Lender may, at Lender’s option, declare immediately due and payable all sums secured by this Mortgage upon the sale or transfer, without Lender’s prior written consent, of all or any part of the Real Property, or any interest in the Real Property. A “sale or transfer” means the conveyance of Real Property or any right, title or interest in the Real Property; whether legal, beneficial or equitable; whether voluntary or involuntary; whether by outright sale, deed, installment sale contract, land contract, contract for deed, leasehold interest with a term greater than three (3) years, lease-option contract, or by sale, assignment, or transfer of any beneficial interest in or to any land trust holding title to the Real Property, or by any other method of conveyance of an interest in the Real Property. If any Grantor is a corporation, partnership or limited liability company, transfer also includes any change in ownership of more than twenty-five percent (25%) of the voting stock, partnership interests or limited liability company interests, as the case may be, of such Grantor. However, this option shall not be exercised by Lender if such exercise is prohibited by federal law or by Oklahoma law.

 

TAXES AND LIENS.   The following provisions relating to the taxes and liens on the Property are part of this Mortgage:

 

Payment.

Grantor shall maintain the Property free of any liens having priority over or equal to the interest of Lender under this Mortgage, except for those liens specifically agreed to in writing by Lender, and except for the lien of taxes and assessments not due as further specified in the Right to Contest paragraph.

 

Evidence of Payment.   Grantor shall upon demand furnish to Lender satisfactory evidence of payment of the taxes or assessments and shall authorize the appropriate governmental official to deliver to Lender at any time a written statement of the taxes and assessments against the Property.

 

4











 

Notice of Construction.   Grantor shall notify Lender at least fifteen (15) days before any work is commenced, any services are furnished, or any materials are supplied to the Property, if any mechanic’s lien, materialmen’s lien, or other lien could be asserted on account of the work, services, or materials. Grantor will upon request of Lender furnish to Lender advance assurances satisfactory to Lender that Grantor can and will pay the cost of such improvements.

 

PROPERTY DAMAGE INSURANCE.   The following provisions relating to insuring the Property are a part of this Mortgage:

 

Maintenance of Insurance.   Grantor shall procure and maintain policies of fire insurance with standard extended coverage endorsements on a replacement basis for the full insurable value covering all Improvements on the Real Property in an amount sufficient to avoid application of any coinsurance clause, and with a standard mortgagee clause in favor of Lender. Grantor shall also procure and maintain comprehensive general liability insurance in such coverage amounts as Lender may request with Lender being named as additional insureds in such liability insurance policies. Additionally, Grantor shall maintain such other insurance, including but not limited to hazard, business interruption and boiler insurance as Lender may require. Policies shall be written by such insurance companies and in such form as may be reasonably acceptable to Lender. Grantor shall deliver to Lender certificates of coverage from each insurer containing a stipulation that coverage will not be cancelled or diminished without a minimum of ten (10) days’ prior written notice to Lender and not containing any disclaimer of the insurer’s liability for failure to give such notice. Each insurance policy also shall include an endorsement providing that coverage in favor of Lender will not be impaired in any way by any act, omission or default of Grantor or any other person. Should the Real Property be located in an area designated by the Director of the Federal Emergency Management Agency as a special flood hazard area, Grantor agrees to obtain and maintain Federal Flood Insurance, if available, within 45 days after notice is given by Lender that the Property is located in a special flood hazard area, for the full unpaid principal balance of the loan and any prior liens on the property securing the loan, up to the maximum policy limits set under the National Flood Insurance Program, or as otherwise required by Lender, and to maintain such insurance for the term of the loan.

 

Application of Proceeds.   Grantor shall promptly notify Lender of any loss or damage to the Property. Lender may make proof of loss if Grantor fails to do so within fifteen (15) days of the casualty. Whether or not Lender’s security is impaired, Lender may, at Lender’s election, receive and retain the proceeds of any insurance and apply the proceeds to the reduction of the Indebtedness, payment of any lien affecting the Property, or the restoration and repair of the Property. If Lender elects to apply the proceeds to restoration and repair, Grantor shall repair or replace the damaged or destroyed Improvements in a manner satisfactory to Lender. Lender shall, upon satisfactory proof of such expenditure, pay or reimburse Grantor from the proceeds for the reasonable cost of repair or restoration if Grantor is not in default under this Mortgage. Any proceeds which have not been disbursed within 180 days after their receipt and which Lender has not committed to the repair or restoration of the Property shall be used first to pay any amount owing to Lender under this Mortgage, then to pay accrued interest, and the remainder, if any, shall be applied to the principal balance of the Indebtedness. If Lender holds any proceeds after payment in full of the Indebtedness, such proceeds shall be paid to Grantor as Grantor’s interests may appear. If all or part of the Property is damaged or destroyed by a third party and sums are due from that party or its insurer as a result, whether due to judgment, settlement or other process, these sums shall be applied in the same manner as insurance proceeds under this paragraph.

 

Grantor’s Report on Insurance.   Upon request of Lender, however not more than once a year, Grantor shall furnish to Lender a report on each existing policy of insurance showing: (1) the name of the insurer; (2) the risks insured; (3) the amount of the policy; (4) the property insured, the then current replacement

 

5











 

value of such property, and the manner of determining that value; and (5) the expiration date of the policy. Grantor shall, upon request of Lender, have an independent appraiser satisfactory to Lender determine the cash value replacement cost of the Property.

 

LENDER’S EXPENDITURES.   If any action or proceeding is commenced that would materially affect Lender’s interest in the Property or if Grantor fails to comply with any provision of this Mortgage or any Related Documents, including but not limited to Grantor’s failure to discharge or pay when due any amounts Grantor is required to discharge or pay under this Mortgage or any Related Documents, Lender on Grantor’s behalf may (but shall not be obligated to) take any action that Lender deems appropriate, including but not limited to discharging or paying all taxes, liens, security interests, encumbrances and other claims, at any time levied or placed on the Property and paying all costs for insuring, maintaining and preserving the Property. All such expenditures incurred or paid by Lender for such purposes will then bear interest at the rate charged under the Note from the date incurred or paid by Lender to the date of repayment by Grantor. All such expenses will become a part of the Indebtedness and, at Lender’s option, will (A) be payable on demand; (B) be added to the balance of the Note and be apportioned among and be payable with any installment payments to become due during either (1) the term of any applicable insurance policy; or (2) the remaining term of the Note; or (C) be treated as a balloon payment which will be due and payable at the Note’s maturity. The Mortgage also will secure payment of these amounts. Such right shall be in addition to all other rights and remedies to which Lender may be entitled upon Default. If Lender is required by law to give Grantor notice before or after Lender makes an expenditure, Grantor agrees that notice sent by regular mail at least five (5) days before the expenditure is made or notice delivered two (2) days before the expenditure is made is sufficient, and that notice within sixty (60) days after the expenditure is made is reasonable.

 

WARRANTY; DEFENSE OF TITLE.   The following provisions relating to ownership of the Property are a part of this Mortgage:

 

Title. Grantor warrants that:   (a) Grantor holds good and marketable title of record to the Property in fee simple, free and clear of all liens and encumbrances other than those set forth in the Real Property description or in any title insurance policy, title report, or final title opinion issued in favor of, and accepted by, Lender in connection with this Mortgage, and (b) Grantor has the full right, power, and authority to execute and deliver this Mortgage to Lender.

 

Defense of Title.   Subject to the exception in the paragraph above, Grantor warrants and will forever defend the title to the Property against the lawful claims of all persons. In the event any action or proceeding is commenced that questions Grantor’s title or the interest of Lender under this Mortgage, Grantor shall defend the action at Grantor’s expense. Grantor may be the nominal party in such proceeding, but Lender shall be entitled to participate in the proceeding and to be represented in the proceeding by counsel of Lender’s own choice, and Grantor will deliver, or cause to be delivered, to Lender such instruments as Lender may request from time to time to permit such participation.

 

Compliance With Laws.   Grantor warrants that the Property and Grantor’s use of the Property complies with all existing applicable laws, ordinances, and regulations of governmental authorities.

 

Survival of Representations and Warranties.

CONDEMNATION.   The following provisions relating to condemnation proceedings are a part of this Mortgage:

 

Proceedings.   If any proceeding in condemnation is filed, Grantor shall promptly notify Lender in writing,

Grantor may be the nominal party in such proceeding, but Lender shall be entitled to participate in the proceeding and to be represented in the proceeding by counsel of its own choice, and Grantor will deliver or cause to be delivered to Lender such instruments and documentation as may be requested by Lender from time to time to permit such participation.

 

Application of Net Proceeds.   If all or any part of the Property is condemned by eminent domain proceedings or by any proceeding or purchase in lieu of condemnation, Lender may at its election require that all or any portion of the net proceeds of the award be applied to the Indebtedness or the repair or restoration of the Property. The net proceeds of the award shall mean the award after payment of all reasonable costs, expenses, and attorneys’ fees incurred by Lender in connection with the condemnation.

In furtherance of this right, Lender may require any tenant or other user of the Property to make payments of rent or use fees directly to Lender. If the Rents are collected by Lender, then Grantor irrevocably designates Lender as Grantor’s attorney-in-fact to endorse instruments received in payment thereof in the name of Grantor and to negotiate the same and collect the proceeds.

Judicial Foreclosure.   Lender may obtain a judicial decree foreclosing Grantor’s interest in all or any part of the Property.

 

Power of Sale.(1)   Lender, as an alternative remedy, may elect to foreclose by power of sale, and Grantor authorizes Lender, or Lender’s attorney, and grants to Lender, or Lender’s attorney, the power (a) to sell and to convey the Property to a purchaser and the purchaser’s heirs or assigns, forever, and (b) to foreclose Grantor’s rights and the rights of all persons who took an interest in the Property subject to this Mortgage.(2) This right to foreclose and to sell and convey the Property which Grantor has given Lender by contract is called the “power of sale” and may, at the option of Lender, be utilized in lieu of the procedure authorized by law for acceleration and foreclosure by judicial process. The power of sale means that in accordance with applicable Oklahoma law with respect to notice to Grantor and other persons, Grantor’s interest and the other persons’ interests in the Property can be sold by Lender at public sale and that the proceeds can be applied to pay the accelerated debt evidenced by the Note and any other Indebtedness secured by this Mortgage without Lender having to go to court in a foreclosure action.(3) However, under the power of sale, before Lender, after an Event of Default, declares all sums secured by this Mortgage immediately due and payable irrespective of any maturity date specified in the Note or in this Mortgage, Lender must give Grantor written notice of intention to foreclose by power of sale, which notice informs Grantor how Grantor has failed to perform under this Mortgage and what Grantor must do to cure the failure.(4) Grantor will have the right for thirty-five (35) days from the date notice is sent, or for any other period provided by law, to cure the failure by paying money or otherwise providing the performance due, unless Grantor previously has been in default more than the number of times specified by statute within the previous two (2) years, in which case (a) Lender is entitled immediately to accelerate the sums secured by this Mortgage and to proceed with the power of sale, and (b) Lender is not required to send a notice of intention of foreclosure with any right to cure. If Grantor cures the default or if Lender accepts a partial performance and a promise to complete performance later, Lender may not require immediate payment in full by acceleration. Grantor understands cure of a default or Lender’s acceptance of partial cure and a promise to complete performance later does not affect or compromise Lender’s rights if there is again a default. If Lender so requests, Grantor agrees to sign and return a form stating (a) when Grantor received the notice specified in this paragraph, (b) whether the Property is homestead property, and (c) if so, whether Grantor will elect judicial foreclosure or elect against a deficiency. Grantor understands that Grantor may, but need not, waive a right to cure in any such receipt form if requested by Lender.(5) In any effort to collect the amounts secured by this Mortgage, whether or not involving foreclosure and sale by power of sale, Lender will have the right to collect all costs allowed by law, and Grantor agrees to pay

to the extent permitted by law Lender’s legal expenses.

 

Deficiency Judgment.   If permitted by applicable law, Lender may obtain a judgment for any deficiency remaining in the Indebtedness due to Lender after application of all amounts received from the exercise of the rights provided in this section.

 

Appraisement.   Lender, at Lender’s option, may waive or not waive appraisement of the Property at the time judgment is rendered in any judicial foreclosure of the Property or at any time prior to such foreclosure.

 

Other Remedies.   Lender shall have all other rights and remedies provided in this Mortgage or the Note or available at law or in equity.

 

Sale of the Property.   To the extent permitted by applicable law, Grantor hereby waives any and all right to have the Property marshalled. In exercising its rights and remedies, Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable law, shall be free to sell all or any part of the Property together or separately, in one sale or by separate sales. Lender shall be entitled to bid at any public sale on all or any portion of the Property.

 

Notice of Sale.   Lender shall give Grantor reasonable notice of the time and place of any public sale of the Personal Property or of the time after which any private sale or other intended disposition of the Personal Property is to be made. Reasonable notice shall mean notice given at least ten (10) days before the time of the sale or disposition. Any sale of the Personal Property may be made in conjunction with any sale of the Real Property.

 

Election of Remedies.   Election by Lender to pursue any remedy shall not exclude pursuit of any other remedy, and an election to make expenditures or to take action to perform an obligation of Grantor under this Mortgage, after Grantor’s failure to perform, shall not affect Lender’s right to declare a default and exercise its remedies. Nothing under this Mortgage or otherwise shall be construed so as to limit or restrict the rights and remedies available to Lender following an Event of Default, or in any way to limit or restrict the rights and ability of Lender to proceed directly against Grantor and/or against any other co-maker, guarantor, surety or endorser and/or to proceed against any other collateral directly or indirectly securing the Indebtedness.

 

Attorneys’ Fees; Expenses.   If Lender institutes any suit or action to enforce any of the terms of this Mortgage, Lender shall be entitled to recover such sum as the court may adjudge reasonable as attorneys’ fees at trial and upon any appeal. Whether or not any court action is involved, and to the extent not prohibited by law, all reasonable expenses Lender incurs that in Lender’s opinion are necessary at any time for the protection of its interest or the enforcement of its rights shall become a part of the Indebtedness payable on demand and shall bear interest at the Note rate from the date of the expenditure until repaid. Expenses covered by this paragraph include, without limitation, however subject to any limits under applicable law, Lender’s attorneys’ fees and Lender’s legal expenses, whether or not there is a lawsuit, including attorneys’ fees and expenses for bankruptcy proceedings (including efforts to modify or vacate any automatic stay or injunction), appeals, and any anticipated post-judgment collection services, the cost of searching records, obtaining title reports (including foreclosure reports), surveyors’ reports, and appraisal fees and title insurance, to the extent permitted by applicable law. Grantor also will pay any court costs, in addition to all other sums provided by law.

 

NOTICES.   To the extent permitted by applicable law, any notice required to be given under this Mortgage, including without limitation any notice of default and any notice of sale shall be given in writing, and shall be effective when actually delivered, when actually received by telefacsimile (unless otherwise required by law), when deposited with a nationally recognized overnight courier, or, if mailed, when deposited in the United

 

11











 

States mail, as first class, certified or registered mail postage prepaid, directed to the addresses shown near the beginning of this Mortgage. All copies of notices of foreclosure from the holder of any lien which has priority over this Mortgage shall be sent to Lender’s address, as shown near the beginning of this Mortgage. Any party may change its address for notices under this Mortgage by giving formal written notice to the other parties, specifying that the purpose of the notice is to change the party’s address. For notice purposes, Grantor agrees to keep Lender informed at all times of Grantor’s current address. To the extent permitted by applicable law, if there is more than one Grantor, any notice given by Lender to any Grantor is deemed to be notice given to all Grantors.

 

MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS.   The following miscellaneous provisions are a part of this Mortgage:

 

Amendments.   This Mortgage, together with any Related Documents, constitutes the entire understanding and agreement of the parties as to the matters set forth in this Mortgage. All prior and contemporaneous representations and discussions concerning such matters either are included in this document or do not constitute an aspect of the agreement of the parties. Except as may be specifically set forth in this Mortgage, no conditions precedent or subsequent, of any kind whatsoever, exist with respect to Grantor’s obligations under this Mortgage.

If the Property is used for purposes other than Grantor’s residence, Grantor shall furnish to Lender, upon request, a certified statement of net operating income received from the Property during Grantor’s previous fiscal year in such form and detail as Lender shall require. “Net operating income” shall mean all cash receipts from the Property less all cash expenditures made in connection with the operation of the Property.

 

Caption Headings.   Caption headings in this Mortgage are for convenience purposes only and are not to be used to interpret or define the provisions of this Mortgage.

 

Governing Law.

In all other respects, this Mortgage will be governed by federal law applicable to Lender and, to the extent not preempted by federal law, the laws of the State of Missouri without regard to its conflicts of law provisions. However, if there ever is a question about whether any provision of this Mortgage is valid or enforceable, the provision that is questioned will be governed by whichever state or federal law would find the provision to be valid and enforceable.

Choice of Venue.   If there is a lawsuit, Grantor agrees upon Lender’s request to submit to the jurisdiction of the courts of STODDARD County, State of Missouri.

 

No Waiver by Lender.   Lender shall not be deemed to have waived any rights under this Mortgage unless such waiver is given in writing and signed by Lender. No delay or omission on the part of Lender in exercising any right shall operate as a waiver of such right or any other right. A waiver by Lender of a provision of this Mortgage shall not prejudice or constitute a waiver of Lender’s right otherwise to demand strict compliance with that provision or any other provision of this Mortgage. No prior waiver by Lender, nor any course of dealing between Lender and Grantor, shall constitute a waiver of any of Lender’s rights or of any of Grantor’s obligations as to any future transactions. Whenever the consent of Lender is

 

12











 

required under this Mortgage, the granting of such consent by Lender in any instance shall not constitute continuing consent to subsequent instances where such consent is required and in all cases such consent may be granted or withheld in the sole discretion of Lender.

 

Severability.   If a court of competent jurisdiction finds any provision of this Mortgage to be illegal, invalid, or unenforceable as to any circumstance, that finding shall not make the offending provision illegal, invalid, or unenforceable as to any other circumstance. If feasible, the offending provision shall be considered modified so that it becomes legal, valid and enforceable. If the offending provision cannot be so modified, it shall be considered deleted from this Mortgage. Unless otherwise required by law, the illegality, invalidity, or unenforceability of any provision of this Mortgage shall not affect the legality, validity or enforceability of any other provision of this Mortgage.

 

Merger.   There shall be no merger of the interest or estate created by this Mortgage with any other interest or estate in the Property at any time held by or for the benefit of Lender in any capacity, without the written consent of Lender.

 

Successors and Assigns.   Subject to any limitations stated in this Mortgage on transfer of Grantor’s interest, this Mortgage shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties, their successors and assigns. If ownership of the Property becomes vested in a person other than Grantor, Lender, without notice to Grantor, may deal with Grantor’s successors with reference to this Mortgage and the Indebtedness by way of forbearance or extension without releasing Grantor from the obligations of this Mortgage or liability under the Indebtedness.

 

Time is of the Essence.   Time is of the essence in the performance of this Mortgage.
