(v) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein or any of the Loan Documents, this Deed of Trust shall not secure the following obligations (the “Unsecured Obligations”):  (a) any obligations evidenced by or arising under the Environmental Indemnity Agreement dated as of even date herewith (“Indemnity Agreement”), executed by and among Borrower, (b) any other obligations in this Deed of Trust or in any of the other Loan Documents to the extent that such other obligations relate specifically to the presence on the Property of hazardous materials and are the same or have the same effect as any of the obligations evidenced by or arising under the Indemnity Agreement, and (c) any obligation of any “Guarantor” under any Guaranty provided in connection with the Loan.  Any breach or default with respect to the Unsecured Obligations shall constitute an Event of Default hereunder, notwithstanding the fact that such Unsecured Obligations are not secured by this Deed of Trust.  Nothing in this Section shall, in itself, impair or limit Beneficiary’s right to obtain a judgment in accordance with applicable law after judicial or nonjudicial foreclosure for any deficiency in recovery of all obligations that are secured by this Deed of Trust following judicial or nonjudicial foreclosure.

 

1.3. Future Advances.  This Deed of Trust is given to secure not only the existing Obligations (as such term is defined in the Credit Agreement), but also future advances (whether such advances are obligatory or are made at the option of Agent, or otherwise) made by Agent and/or the Lenders pursuant to and under the Credit Agreement, the Note or this Deed of Trust, to the same extent as if such future advances were made on the date of the execution of this Deed of Trust.  Funds disbursed that, in the reasonable exercise of Agent’s judgment, are needed to complete Improvements or to protect Agent’s and Lenders’ security interest in the Property, are to be deemed obligatory advances hereunder, and will be added to the Indebtedness and secured by this Deed of Trust, and the Indebtedness shall be increased accordingly. The total amount of Indebtedness secured hereby may increase or decrease from time to time.  This Deed of Trust shall be valid and have priority to the extent of the maximum amount secured hereby over all subsequent liens and encumbrances, including statutory liens, excepting solely taxes and assessments levied on the Property given priority by law.

 

1.4. Successors.

 

(a) All persons who may have or acquire an interest in all or any part of the Property will be considered to have notice of, and will be bound by, the terms of the Secured Obligations and each other agreement or instrument made or entered into in connection with each of the Secured Obligations.  Such terms include any provisions in the Note or the Credit Agreement which permit borrowing, repayment and reborrowing, or which provide that the interest rate on one or more of the Secured Obligations may vary from time to time.

 

(b) All provisions in favor of the Trustee and/or Agent set forth herein, except to the extent related solely to the reimbursement of the Trustee and/or Agent for costs and expenses incurred in connection herewith or to the indemnification obligations of Grantor as they

relate specifically to the Trustee and/or Agent, are intended to be for the benefit of the Agent and Lenders, and all actions taken by the Trustee and/or Agent hereunder, except as specifically related to the matters noted above, shall be deemed to be for the benefit of the Agent and Lenders.

 

ARTICLE TWO

 

COVENANTS OF GRANTOR

 

Grantor covenants and agrees with Agent and Lenders as follows:

 

2.1. Performance under Credit Agreement, Deed of Trust and Other Loan Documents.  Grantor shall perform, observe and comply with or cause to be performed, observed and complied with in a complete and timely manner all provisions hereof, of the Credit Agreement, every Loan Document and every instrument evidencing or securing the Secured Obligations.

 

2.2. General Covenants and Representations.  Grantor covenants, represents and warrants that as of the date hereof and at all times thereafter during the term hereof:  (a) Grantor is seized of an indefeasible estate in fee simple in that portion of the Property which is real property, and has good and absolute title to it and the balance of the Property free and clear of all liens, security interests, charges and encumbrances whatsoever, except Permitted Encumbrances under the Credit Agreement and those otherwise permitted in writing by Agent (such liens, security interests, charges and encumbrances being hereinafter referred to as the “Permitted Encumbrances”); and (b) Grantor will maintain and preserve the lien of this Deed of Trust as a first and paramount lien on the Property, subject only to the Permitted Encumbrances until the Secured Obligations have been paid in full and Agent’s obligations under the Credit Agreement have been terminated.

 

2.3. Compliance with Laws and Other Restrictions.  Grantor covenants and represents that the Land and the Improvements and the use thereof presently comply with, and, to the extent required by the Credit Agreement, will continue to comply with, all applicable restrictive covenants, zoning and subdivision ordinances and building codes, licenses, health and environmental laws and regulations and all other applicable laws, ordinances, rules and regulations if the failure to so comply would have a Material Adverse Effect, provided that the Grantor may contest any acts, rules, regulations, orders and directions of such bodies or officials in any reasonable manner which Agent determines, in the exercise of its reasonable business judgment, will not materially and adversely affect Agent’s or the Lenders’ rights or priorities in the Property.

 

2.4. Taxes and Other Charges.

 

(a) Taxes and Assessments.  Except as otherwise provided in the Credit Agreement, Grantor shall pay promptly when due all taxes, assessments, rates, dues, charges, fees, levies, fines, impositions, liabilities, obligations, liens and encumbrances of every kind and nature whatsoever now or hereafter imposed, levied or assessed upon or against the Property or any part thereof, or upon or against this Deed of Trust or the Secured Obligations; provided,

 

	  	
 

	  

 

 

CHICAGO/#2321273.5

  

8

  

however, that Grantor may in good faith contest the validity, applicability or amount of any tax, assessment or other charge, if, on or before the due date of the asserted tax, assessment, or other charge, Grantor shall obtain an endorsement, in form and substance satisfactory to Agent, to the loan policy of title insurance issued to Agent insuring the lien of this Deed of Trust, insuring over such tax, assessment or other charge and if Grantor otherwise complies with any provisions which may be set forth in the Credit Agreement regarding the contest of taxes.

 

(b) Taxes Affecting Agent’s Interest.  If any state, federal, municipal or other governmental law, order, rule or regulation, which becomes effective subsequent to the date hereof, in any manner changes or modifies existing laws governing the taxation of mortgages or debts secured by mortgages, or the manner of collecting taxes, so as to impose on Agent a tax by reason of its ownership of any or all of the Loan Documents or measured by the principal amount of the Secured Obligations, requires or has the practical effect of requiring Agent to pay any portion of the real estate taxes levied in respect of the Property or to pay any tax levied in whole or in part in substitution for real estate taxes or otherwise affects materially and adversely the rights of Agent or any Lender in respect of the Secured Obligations, this Deed of Trust or the other Loan Documents, the Secured Obligations and all interest accrued thereon shall, upon thirty (30) days’ notice, become due and payable forthwith at the option of Agent, whether or not there shall have occurred an Event of Default, provided, however, that, if Grantor may, without violating or causing a violation of such law, order, rule or regulation, pay such taxes or other sums as are necessary to eliminate such adverse effect upon the rights of Agent or any Lender and does pay such taxes or other sums when due, Agent may not elect to declare due the Secured Obligations by reason of the provisions of this Section 2.4(b).

 

2.5. Construction and Other Liens.  Except as otherwise provided in the Credit Agreement, Grantor shall not permit or suffer any construction, mechanic’s, laborer’s, materialman’s, statutory or other lien or encumbrance (other than any lien for taxes and assessments not yet due) to be created upon or against the Property except Permitted Encumbrances; provided, however, that Grantor may in good faith, by appropriate proceedings, contest the validity, applicability or amount of any asserted lien, if Grantor shall first obtain an endorsement, in form and substance satisfactory to Agent, to the loan policy of title insurance issued to Agent insuring the lien of this Deed of Trust, insuring over such asserted lien and if Grantor otherwise complies with any provisions which may be set forth in the Credit Agreement regarding the contest of liens.

 

2.6. Insurance and Condemnation.

 

(a) Insurance Policies.  Grantor shall, at its sole expense, obtain for, deliver to, assign to and maintain for the benefit of Agent, until the Secured Obligations are paid in full, such policies of insurance as are required by the Credit Agreement.

 

(b) Adjustment of Loss; Application of Proceeds.  Except as otherwise may be provided by the Credit Agreement, Agent is hereby authorized and empowered, in its reasonable business judgment, to adjust or compromise any loss under any insurance policies covering the Property and to collect and receive the proceeds from any such policy or policies.  Grantor

hereby irrevocably appoints Agent as its attorney-in-fact for the purposes set forth in the preceding sentence.  The entire amount of such proceeds, award or compensation shall be applied as provided in the Credit Agreement.

 

(c) Condemnation Awards.  Subject to the terms of the Credit Agreement, Agent, as agent for the Lenders, shall be entitled to all compensation, awards, damages, claims, rights of action and proceeds of, or on account of, (i) any damage or taking, pursuant to the power of eminent domain, of the Property or any part thereof, (ii) damage to the Property by reason of the taking, pursuant to the power of eminent domain, of other property, or (iii) the alteration of the grade of any street or highway on or about the Property, but in any case not in an amount in excess of the Secured Obligations.  Subject to the terms of the Credit Agreement, Agent is hereby authorized, at its option, to commence, appear in and prosecute in its own or Grantor’s name any action or proceeding relating to any such compensation, awards, damages, claims, rights of action and proceeds and to settle or compromise any claim in connection therewith.  Grantor hereby irrevocably appoints Agent as its attorney-in-fact for the purposes set forth in the preceding sentence.  In the event that Grantor acquires any real estate to replace all or any portion of the Property which became subject to any such action or proceeding, Grantor shall execute and deliver to Agent a deed of trust or mortgage of such replacement property, which instrument shall be in substantially the same form as this Deed of Trust, and Grantor shall deliver to Agent a survey and a title insurance policy and such other items in connection with such replacement property as Agent may require, all in form and substance satisfactory to Agent.

 

(d) Obligation to Repair.  If all or any part of the Property shall be damaged or destroyed by fire or other casualty or shall be damaged or taken through the exercise of the power of eminent domain or other cause described in Section 2.6(b), Grantor shall promptly and with all due diligence restore and repair, to the extent required by and in accordance with the Credit Agreement, the Property whether or not the proceeds, award or other compensation are made available to Grantor or are sufficient to pay the cost of such restoration or repair.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Grantor shall not be required to repair the Property if Agent elects the right to retain insurance proceeds under the provisions of Section 7.3(c)(i) of the Credit Agreement.

 

2.7. Agent May Pay; Default Rate.  Upon Grantor’s failure to pay any amount required to be paid by Grantor under any provision of this Deed of Trust within the time period set forth in the Credit Agreement, Agent may pay the same.  Grantor shall pay to Agent immediately upon demand the amount so paid by Agent together with interest at a rate equal to the highest rate payable under the Credit Agreement after the occurrence and during the continuation of an “Event of Default” as such term is defined in the Credit Agreement (the “Default Rate”) and the amount so paid by Agent, together with interest, shall be added to the Secured Obligations if Grantor does not pay such amount within ten (10) days of demand.

 

2.8. Care of the Property.  Grantor shall be responsible for  preserving and maintaining the Property in good operating condition.  Grantor shall not, without the prior written consent of Agent, permit, commit or suffer any waste, impairment or deterioration of the Property or of any part thereof.

2.9. Transfer or Encumbrance of the Property.  Except as permitted by Agent or by the Credit Agreement, Grantor shall not permit or suffer to occur any sale, assignment, conveyance, transfer, mortgage, lease or encumbrance of the Property, any part thereof, or any interest therein, without the prior written consent of Agent having been obtained.

 

2.10. Further Assurances.  At any time and from time to time, upon Agent’s reasonable request, Grantor shall make, execute and deliver, or cause to be made, executed and delivered, to Agent, and where appropriate shall cause to be recorded, registered or filed, and from time to time thereafter to be re-recorded, re-registered and refiled at such time and in such offices and places as shall be deemed desirable by Agent, any and all such further mortgages, security agreements, financing statements, instruments of further assurance, certificates and other documents as Agent may consider reasonably necessary in order to effectuate or perfect, or to continue and preserve the Secured Obligations under, this Deed of Trust.

 

2.11. Assignment of Rents.

 

(a) As additional security for the payment of the Indebtedness and performance of all Secured Obligations, Grantor hereby assigns to Agent, for its benefit and the benefit of the Lenders, all of Grantor’s right, title and interest in and to the Leases, but without Agent thereby becoming liable for the performance of the lessor’s obligations under the Leases.  The assignment of rents, income and other benefits contained in Section 1.1 of this Deed of Trust shall be absolute and effective immediately as of the date hereof, and fully operative without any further action on the part of either party.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Grantor shall have a license to receive, collect and enjoy the Rents until the occurrence of an Event of Default hereunder.  Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, the aforesaid license shall cease automatically, without notice, possession, foreclosure or any other act or procedure, the right of Grantor to receive, collect and enjoy the Rents shall belong exclusively to Agent, and all Rents assigned by this Deed of Trust shall thereafter be paid directly to Agent.  Such rights and this assignment shall be operative during any period of redemption following foreclosure.  In the event of any sale or foreclosure which shall result in a deficiency, this assignment shall stand as security during the redemption period for the payment of such deficiency.  Grantor hereby further grants to Agent, for its benefit and for the benefit of the Lenders, the right effective upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, and so long as the Event of Default exists and during the pendency of any foreclosure proceedings and period of redemption to do any or all of the following, at Agent’s option but subject to any limitations imposed by applicable law, including without limitation, health care laws:  (i) enter upon and take possession of the Property either personally or through a receiver for the purpose of collecting the Rents; (ii) dispossess by the usual summary proceedings any tenant defaulting in the payment thereof to Agent; (iii) lease the Property or any part thereof; (iv) repair, restore and improve the Property; and (v) apply the Rents after payment of certain expenses and capital expenditures relating to the Property, on account of the Secured Obligations in

such order and manner as Agent may elect.  Such assignment and grant shall continue in effect until the Secured Obligations are paid in full, the execution of this Deed of Trust constituting and evidencing the irrevocable consent of Grantor to the entry upon and taking possession of the Property by Agent and to the appointment of a receiver if requested by Agent pursuant to such grant, whether or not foreclosure proceedings have been instituted.  Neither the exercise of any rights under this section by Agent nor the application of any such Rents to payment of the Secured Obligations shall cure or waive any Event of Default or notice provided for hereunder, or invalidate any act done pursuant hereto or pursuant to any such notice, but shall be cumulative of all other rights and remedies.  This assignment is given as collateral security only and shall not be construed as obligating Agent to perform any of the covenants or undertakings required to be performed by Grantor contained in the Leases.  No action taken by Agent hereunder shall make Agent a “mortgagee-in-possession” or obligate Agent to attempt to collect rent or other amounts from any tenant or to perform any obligations of landlord under any of the Leases.

 

(b) Grantor shall not permit Rents under any of the Leases to be collected more than thirty (30) days in advance of the due date thereof and, upon any receiver, Agent, anyone claiming by, through or under Agent or any purchaser at a foreclosure sale coming into possession of the Property, no tenant shall be given credit for any rent paid more than thirty (30) days in advance of the due date thereof.

 

2.12. After-Acquired Property.  To the extent permitted by, and subject to, applicable law, the lien of this Deed of Trust shall automatically attach, without further act, to all property hereafter acquired by Grantor located in or on, or attached to, or used or intended to be used in connection with, or with the operation of, the Property or any part thereof.

 

2.13. Leases Affecting Property.  Grantor shall comply with and perform in a complete and timely manner all of its obligations as landlord under the Leases.  The assignment contained in Sections 1.1(e) and 1.1(f) shall not be deemed to impose upon Agent any of the obligations or duties of the landlord or Grantor provided in any of the Leases.

 

2.14. Management of Property.  Grantor shall cause the Property to be managed at all times in accordance with sound business practice.

 

2.15. Execution of Leases.  Grantor shall not (a) enter into any non-residential Operating Leases (as defined in the Credit Agreement) or (b) modify, amend, or terminate any non-residential Operating Lease if the effect of such change or amendment would materially increase the obligations of Borrower or confer additional material rights on the third party lessee in a manner adverse to Borrower, Agent or the Lenders.

 

2.16. Expenses.

 

(a) Without limitation of any other provision of this Deed of Trust or of any other Loan Document and to the extent not prohibited by applicable law, Grantor will pay, and

will reimburse to Agent and/or Trustee on demand to the extent paid by Agent and/or Trustee: (i) all appraisal fees, filing, registration and recording fees, recordation, transfer and other taxes, brokerage fees and commissions, abstract fees, title search or examination fees, title policy and endorsement premiums and fees, uniform commercial code search fees, judgment and tax lien search fees, escrow fees, reasonable attorneys’ fees (based on actual hours at customary rates), architect fees, engineer fees, construction consultant fees, environmental inspection fees, survey fees, and all other out-of-pocket costs and expenses of every character incurred by Grantor or Agent and/or Trustee in connection with the preparation of the Loan Documents, the evaluation, closing and funding of the loans evidenced by the Loan Documents, and any and all amendments and supplements to this Deed of Trust or any other Loan Documents or any approval, consent, waiver, release or other matter requested or required hereunder or thereunder, or otherwise attributable or chargeable to Grantor as owner of the Property; and (ii) all costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees (based on actual hours at customary rates) and expenses, incurred or expended in connection with the exercise of any right or remedy, or the defense of any right or remedy or the enforcement of any obligation of Grantor, hereunder or under any other Loan Document.

 

(b) Grantor will indemnify and hold harmless Agent and Trustee from and against, and reimburse them on demand for, any and all Indemnified Matters (hereinafter defined).  For purposes of this Section 2.16(b), the terms “Agent” and “Trustee” shall include the directors, officers, partners, employees and agents of Trustee and Agent, respectively, and any persons owned or controlled by, owning or controlling, or under common control or affiliated with Agent or Trustee, respectively.  Without limitation, the foregoing indemnities shall apply to each indemnified person with respect to matters which in whole or in part are caused by or arise out of the negligence of such (and/or any other) indemnified person unless prohibited by applicable law.  However, such indemnities shall not apply to a particular indemnified person to the extent that the subject of the indemnification is caused by or arises out of the negligence or willful misconduct of that indemnified person.  Any amount to be paid under this Section 2.16(b) by Grantor to Agent and/or Trustee shall be a demand obligation owing by Grantor (which Grantor hereby promises to pay) to Agent and/or Trustee pursuant to this Deed of Trust.  Nothing in this Section 2.16(b), elsewhere in this Deed of Trust or in any other Loan Document shall limit or impair any rights or remedies of Agent and/or Trustee (including without limitation any rights of contribution or indemnification) against Grantor or any other person under any other provision of this Deed of Trust, any other Loan Document, any other agreement or any applicable legal requirement.  As used herein, the term “Indemnified Matters” means any and all claims, demands, liabilities (including strict liability), losses, damages (including consequential damages), causes of action, judgments, penalties, fines, costs and expenses (including without limitation, reasonable fees and expenses of attorneys and other professional consultants and experts, and of the investigation and defense of any claim, whether or not such claim is ultimately defeated, and the settlement of any claim or judgment including all value paid or given in settlement) of every kind, known or unknown, foreseeable or unforeseeable, which may be imposed upon, asserted against or incurred or paid by Agent and/or Trustee at any time and from time to time, whenever imposed, asserted or incurred, because of, resulting from, in connection with, or arising out of any transaction, act, omission, event or

circumstance in any way connected with the Property or with this Deed of Trust or any other Loan Document, including but not limited to any bodily injury or death or property damage occurring in or upon or in the vicinity of the Property through any cause whatsoever at any time on or before the Release Date (hereinafter defined), any act performed or omitted to be performed hereunder or under any other Loan Document, any breach by Grantor of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or condition contained in this Deed of Trust or in any other Loan Document, any default as defined herein, any claim under or with respect to any Lease or arising under any Loan Document.  The indemnities in this Section 2.16(b) shall not terminate upon the any release, foreclosure or other termination of this Deed of Trust but will survive any release hereof, foreclosure of this Deed of Trust, conveyance in lieu of foreclosure, the repayment of the Secured Obligations, the discharge and release of this Deed of Trust and the other Loan Documents, any bankruptcy or other debtor relief proceeding, and any other event whatsoever.

 

2.17. Reserved.

 

2.18. Security Agreement.

 

(a) This Deed of Trust shall also constitute a Security Agreement, as that term is used in the Code, with respect to any portion of the Improvements which are now or hereafter deemed to be personal property, fixtures or property other than real estate and all replacements, additions and substitutions thereto (the “UCC Collateral”).  Grantor hereby grants a security interest and assigns to Agent, for its benefit and the benefit of the Lenders in all of Grantor’s right, title and interest in and to the UCC Collateral to secure the payment of the indebtedness secured by and the performance of the Secured Obligations.  Agent shall have, in addition to the rights and remedies granted to Agent under this Deed of Trust, all of the rights and remedies of a secured party under the Code with respect to the UCC Collateral and Grantor hereby agrees that in the event Agent shall exercise any right or remedy under the Code following a default by Grantor under this Deed of Trust, whether to dispose of the UCC Collateral or otherwise, ten (10) days notice by Agent to Grantor shall be deemed to be reasonable notice under any provision of the Code requiring such notice.  Grantor shall, immediately upon request by Agent, execute and deliver to Agent, in a form prescribed by Agent, any financing statement, continuation statement, certificate or other document covering all or any portion of the UCC Collateral designated by Agent that, in the opinion of Agent, may be required to perfect, continue, affirm or otherwise maintain the existence and priority of the security interest in the UCC Collateral created under this Deed of Trust.  Grantor, if requested by Agent, shall also execute and deliver to Agent a Security Agreement covering the UCC Collateral and containing such covenants, conditions and agreements in addition or as a supplement to those contained in this Deed of Trust as may be reasonably requested by Agent.  Subject to the terms and provisions of the Credit Agreement, upon an Event of Default, Grantor shall gather all of the Property which is Improvements, at a location designated by Agent for sale pursuant to the terms hereof.

 

(b) Agent shall have all the rights, remedies and recourses with respect to the Improvements, Leases and Rents afforded a secured party by the Code, now or hereafter in

effect, in addition to, and not in limitation of, the other rights, remedies and recourses afforded by the Loan Documents and at law.

 

(c) The assignment and security interest herein granted shall not be deemed or construed to constitute Agent as a trustee in possession of the Property, to obligate Agent to operate the Property or attempt to do the same, or take any action, incur expenses or perform or discharge any obligation, duty or liability whatsoever under any of the Leases or otherwise.

(b) The failure by Grantor to keep, perform or observe any covenant, condition or agreement on the part of Grantor in this Deed of Trust, other than as set forth in clause (a) above, which failure continues for more than thirty (30) days after the date that Grantor received notice from Agent of such failure; provided, however, in the case of a default of a covenant, condition or agreement which is capable of cure but cannot reasonably be cured within such thirty (30) day period, and provided Grantor shall have given Agent a written undertaking to, and shall have commenced to cure such default within such thirty (30) day period and thereafter diligently and expeditiously proceeds to cure the same, such thirty (30) day period shall be extended for an additional thirty (30) days; and provided further that if a different notice or grace period is specified under Section 11 of the Credit Agreement (or elsewhere in this Deed of Trust or the Credit Agreement) after which such particular breach will become an Event of Default, the specific provision elsewhere in this Deed of Trust or in the Credit Agreement shall control.

REMEDIES

 

4.1. Acceleration of Maturity.  If an Event of Default shall have occurred and is continuing, Agent may declare the Indebtedness and Secured Obligations to be immediately due and payable, without further demand or notice.

 

4.2. Foreclosure; Power of Sale.

 

(a) If an Event of Default shall have occurred and is continuing, Agent may, either with or without entry or taking possession as provided in this Deed of Trust or otherwise, and without regard to whether or not the Secured Obligations shall have been accelerated, and without prejudice to the right of Agent thereafter to bring an action of foreclosure or any other action for any Event of Default existing at the time such earlier action was commenced or arising thereafter, proceed by any appropriate action or proceeding:  (i) to enforce the payment or performance of the Secured Obligations; (ii) to foreclose this Deed of Trust, through judicial proceedings or non-judicial proceedings, including by power of sale or advertisement, to have sold either as a whole or in parcels, as Agent shall elect, the Property; and (iii) to pursue any other remedy available to it.  Agent may take action either by such proceedings or by the exercise of its powers with respect to entry or taking possession, or both, as Agent may determine.  Grantor agrees that Agent may elect to foreclose and select any redemption period authorized by law.

 

(b) Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, in accordance with applicable law, Agent shall have the option and is hereby authorized and empowered to enforce this Deed of Trust and to commence foreclosure proceedings against the Property through judicial proceedings or by advertisement, pursuant to the statutes in such case made and provided, and to sell the Property or to cause the same to be sold at public sale, and to convey the same to the purchaser, in accordance with said statutes in a single parcel or in several parcels.  The commencement of foreclosure proceedings by Agent shall be deemed an exercise of its option to accelerate the Secured Obligations, unless the proceedings on its face specifically indicates otherwise.  It is intended hereby to give Agent the widest possible discretion permitted by law with respect to all aspects of any such sale or sales.  The sale or sales by Agent of less than the whole of the Property shall not exhaust the power of sale herein granted, and Agent is specifically empowered to make successive sale or sales under such power until the whole of the Property shall be sold; and if the proceeds of such sale or sales of less than the whole of the Property shall be less than the aggregate of the Secured Obligations and the expenses thereof, this Deed of Trust and the lien, security interest and assignment hereof shall remain in full force and effect as to the unsold portion of the Property just as though no sale or sales had been made; provided, however, that Grantor shall never have any right to require the sale or sales of less than the whole of the Property, but Agent shall have the right, at its sole election, to sell less than the whole of the Property.  If sale is made because of a default in the payment of a portion of the Secured Obligations, such sale may be made subject to the unmatured part of the Secured

 

	  	
 

	  

 

 

CHICAGO/#2321273.5

  

16

  

Obligations; and it is agreed that such sale, if so made, shall not in any manner affect the unmatured part of Secured Obligations, but as to such unmatured part, this Deed of Trust shall remain in full force and effect as though no sale had been made hereunder without exhausting the right of sale for any unmatured part of the Secured Obligations.  At any such sale (i) Grantor hereby agrees, on its behalf and on behalf of its heirs, executors, administrators, successors, personal representatives and assigns, that any and all recitals made in any deed of conveyance given by Agent with respect to the identity of Agent, the occurrence or existence of any Event of Default, the acceleration of the maturity of the Secured Obligations, the request to sell, the notice of sale, the giving of notice to all debtors legally entitled thereto, the time, place, terms, and manner of sale, and receipt, distribution and application of the money realized therefrom, or the due and proper appointment of a substitute agent, and, without being limited by the foregoing, with respect to any other act or thing having been duly done by Agent or by Agent hereunder, shall be taken by all courts of law and equity as prima facie evidence that the statements or recitals state facts and are without further question to be so accepted, and Grantor hereby ratifies and confirms every act that Agent may lawfully do in the premises by virtue hereof; (ii) the purchaser may disaffirm any easement granted, or rental, lease or other contract made, in violation of any provision of this Deed of Trust, and may take immediate possession of the Property free from, and despite the terms of, such grant of easement and rental or lease contract; and (iii) Agent may bid and become the purchaser of all or any part of the Property at any foreclosure sale hereunder.  Subject to applicable law, power is hereby granted to Agent, if default is made in the payment of the Secured Obligations or any part thereof, or in the payment of any other sums provided for herein, or in the performance of any covenants or condition of Secured Obligations or as provided herein, in each case after the expiration of any applicable grace or cure period, to grant, bargain, sell, release and convey the Property at public auction or venue, and on such sale to execute and deliver to the purchaser or purchasers, his, her, its or their heirs, successors and assigns, good ample and sufficient deed or deeds of conveyance in law, pursuant to the statute in such case made and provided, and to apply the proceeds of such sale in the manner hereafter provided.

 

(c) Upon foreclosure sale of the Property or any part thereof, the proceeds of such sale shall be applied in the following order:

 

(i) to the payment of all costs of the suit or foreclosure, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and the costs of title searches and abstracts;

 

(ii) then, to the payment of all other expenses of Agent, including all monies expended by Agent and all other amounts payable by Grantor to Agent hereunder, with interest thereon;

 

(iii) then, to the payment of the Secured Obligations; and

 

(iv) then, to the payment of the surplus, if any, to Grantor or to whomsoever shall be entitled thereto.

 

	  	
 

	  

 

 

CHICAGO/#2321273.5

(d) Upon any foreclosure sale of the Property, as same may be sold either as a whole or in parcels, as Agent may elect, and if in parcels, the same be divided as Agent may elect, and at the election of Agent may be offered first in parcels and then as a whole, that offer producing the highest price for the entire Property to prevail, any law, statutory or otherwise, to the contrary notwithstanding, and Grantor hereby waives the right to require any such sale to be made in a single or separate parcel or the right to select such parcels.  Grantor hereby expressly waives any right pertaining to the marshalling of assets, the exemption of homestead, the administration of estates of decedents, or other matter to defeat, reduce or affect the right of Agent to sell the Property for the collection of the Secured Obligations (without any prior or different resort for collection), or the right of Agent to the payment of the Secured Obligations out of the proceeds of sale of the Property in preference to every other person and claimant.

 

4.3. Other Rights and Remedies.  Agent may exercise any and all other rights and remedies which Agent may have under the Loan Documents, or at law or in equity or otherwise.  Agent may resort to any security given by this Deed of Trust or to any other security now existing or hereafter given to secure the payment of the Secured Obligations, in whole or in part, and in such portions and in such order as may seem best to Agent in its sole and uncontrolled discretion, and any such action shall not in anywise be considered as a waiver of any of the rights, benefits, liens or security interests evidenced by this Deed of Trust.

 

4.4. Waivers.

 

(a) WAIVER OF DEFENSES; JURY TRIAL; FORUM; VENUE.  GRANTOR, ON BEHALF OF ITSELF AND ANY GUARANTORS OF ANY OF THE OBLIGATIONS, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WAIVES EVERY PRESENT AND FUTURE DEFENSE, CAUSE OF ACTION, COUNTERCLAIM OR SETOFF WHICH GRANTOR MAY NOW HAVE OR HEREAFTER MAY HAVE TO ANY ACTION BY AGENT IN ENFORCING THIS DEED OF TRUST EXCEPT ARISING FROM AGENT’S GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT AS FINALLY DETERMINED BY A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION.  TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, GRANTOR WAIVES ANY IMPLIED COVENANT OF GOOD FAITH AND RATIFIES AND CONFIRMS WHATEVER AGENT MAY DO PURSUANT TO THE TERMS OF THIS DEED OF TRUST.  THIS PROVISION IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR AGENT AND LENDERS GRANTING ANY FINANCIAL ACCOMMODATION TO GRANTOR.  AGENT AND GRANTOR, AFTER CONSULTING OR HAVING HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO CONSULT WITH COUNSEL, EACH KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVE IRREVOCABLY, THE RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY WITH RESPECT TO ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING BASED HEREON, OR ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS DEED OF TRUST, THE PROMISSORY NOTE OR ANY OF THE OTHER OBLIGATIONS, THE COLLATERAL, OR ANY OTHER AGREEMENT EXECUTED OR CONTEMPLATED TO BE EXECUTED IN CONJUNCTION WITH THIS DEED OF TRUST, OR ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT OR COURSE OF DEALING IN WHICH AGENT AND GRANTOR ARE ADVERSE PARTIES.  THIS

 

	  	
 

	  

 

 

CHICAGO/#2321273.5

  

18

  

PROVISION IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR AGENT AND LENDERS GRANTING ANY FINANCIAL ACCOMMODATION TO GRANTOR.  TO INDUCE AGENT AND LENDERS TO MAKE THE LOANS, GRANTOR IRREVOCABLY AGREES THAT ALL ACTIONS ARISING, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, AS A RESULT OR CONSEQUENCE OF THIS DEED OF TRUST, THE NOTE, ANY OTHER AGREEMENT WITH AGENT AND LENDERS OR THE COLLATERAL, SHALL BE INSTITUTED AND LITIGATED ONLY IN COURTS HAVING THEIR SITUS IN MONTGOMERY COUNTY, STATE OF MARYLAND, EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT NECESSARY TO FORECLOSE OR ENFORCE THE PROVISIONS OF THIS DEED OF TRUST.  GRANTOR HEREBY CONSENTS TO THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION AND VENUE OF ANY STATE OR FEDERAL COURT HAVING ITS SITUS IN SAID CITY, AND WAIVES ANY OBJECTION BASED ON FORUM NON CONVENIENS.  GRANTOR HEREBY WAIVES PERSONAL SERVICE OF ANY AND ALL PROCESS AND CONSENTS THAT ALL SUCH SERVICE OF PROCESS MAY BE MADE BY CERTIFIED MAIL, RETURN RECEIPT REQUESTED, DIRECTED TO GRANTOR AS SET FORTH HEREIN IN THE MANNER PROVIDED BY APPLICABLE STATUTE, LAW, RULE OF COURT OR OTHERWISE.

 

4.5. Agent’s Right to Enter and Take Possession, Operate and Apply Income.

 

(a) If an Event of Default shall have occurred, (i) Grantor, upon demand of Agent, shall forthwith surrender to Agent the actual possession of the Property, and to the extent permitted by law, Agent itself, or by such officers or agents as it may appoint, is hereby expressly authorized to enter and take possession of all or any portion of the Property and may exclude Grantor and the agents and employees of Grantor wholly therefrom and shall have joint access with Grantor to the books, papers and accounts of Grantor; and (ii) notwithstanding the provisions of any of the Leases or other agreement to the contrary, Grantor shall pay monthly in advance to Agent, on Agent’s entry into possession, or to any receiver appointed to collect the Rents, the fair and reasonable rental value for the use and occupation of such part of the Property as may be in possession of Grantor, or any entity affiliated with or controlled by Grantor, and upon default in any such payment Grantor shall vacate and surrender possession of such part of the Property to Agent or to such receiver, and in default thereof Grantor may be evicted by summary proceedings or otherwise.

 

(b) If Grantor shall for any reason fail to surrender or deliver the Property or any part thereof after Agent’s demand, Agent may obtain a judgment or decree conferring on Agent the right to immediate possession or requiring Grantor to deliver immediate possession of all or part of the Property to Agent, to the entry of which judgment or decree Grantor hereby specifically consents.  Grantor shall pay to Agent, upon demand, all costs and expenses of obtaining such judgment or decree and reasonable compensation to Agent, its attorneys and agents, and all such costs, expenses and compensation shall, until paid, be secured by the lien of this Deed of Trust.

(c) Upon every such entering upon or taking of possession, Agent, to the extent permitted by law, may hold, store, use, operate, manage and control the Property and conduct the business thereof.

4.7. Purchase by Agent.  Upon any foreclosure sale, Agent or any Lender may bid for and purchase all or any portion of the Property.

Upon any foreclosure sale, Agent may apply any or all of the Secured Obligations and other sums due under the Credit Agreement, the Promissory Note, this Deed of Trust or any other Loan Documents to the price paid by Agent at the foreclosure sale.

 

4.9. Waiver of Appraisement, Valuation, Stay and Extension Laws.  In case of an Event of Default, neither Grantor nor anyone claiming through or under it will set up, claim or seek to take advantage of any reinstatement, appraisement, valuation, stay or extension laws now or hereafter in force, or take any other action which would prevent or hinder the enforcement or foreclosure of this Deed of Trust or the absolute sale of the Property or the final and absolute putting into possession thereof, immediately after the expiration of the redemption period.  Grantor, for itself and all who may at any time claim through or under it, hereby waives, to the full extent that it may lawfully so do, the benefit of all such laws, and any and all right to have the assets comprising the Property marshaled upon any foreclosure of the lien hereof and agrees that Agent or any court having jurisdiction to foreclose such lien may sell the Property in part or as an entirety.  Further, Grantor waives any right otherwise available to require Agent to pursue its remedies against any other assets or any other person or entity who or which may be liable for any of the Secured Obligations.

 

4.10. Receiver – Agent in Possession.  If an Event of Default shall have occurred and is continuing, Agent, to the extent permitted by law and without regard to the value of the Property or the adequacy of the security for the Secured Obligations and other sums secured hereby, shall be entitled as a matter of right and without any additional showing or proof, at Agent’s election, to either the appointment by the court of a receiver (without the necessity of Agent posting a bond) to enter upon and take possession of the Property and to collect all rents, income and other benefits thereof and apply the same as the court may direct or to be placed by the court into possession of the Property as mortgagee in possession with the same power herein granted to a receiver and with all other rights and privileges of a mortgagee in possession under law.

 

4.11. Grantor to Pay the Secured Obligations in Event of Default.  Upon occurrence and is continuing of an Event of Default, Agent shall be entitled to sue for and to recover judgment against Grantor for the Secured Obligations due and unpaid together with costs and expenses, including the reasonable compensation, expenses and disbursements of Agent’s agents, attorneys

and other representatives, either before or during the pendency of any proceedings for the enforcement of this Deed of Trust; and the right of Agent to recover such judgment shall not be affected by any taking of possession or foreclosure sale hereunder, or by the exercise of any other right, power or remedy for the enforcement of the terms of this Deed of Trust, or the foreclosure of the lien hereof.

 

4.12. Remedies Cumulative.  No right, power or remedy conferred upon or reserved to Agent by the Credit Agreement, this Deed of Trust or any other Loan Document or any instrument evidencing or securing the Secured Obligations is exclusive of any other right, power or remedy, but each and every such right, power and remedy shall be cumulative and concurrent and shall be in addition to any other right, power and remedy given hereunder or under the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document or any instrument evidencing or securing the Secured Obligations, or now or hereafter existing at law, in equity or by statute.

5.19. Limitation on Agent’s Responsibility.  No provision of this Deed of Trust shall operate to place any obligation or liability for the control, care, management or repair of the Property upon Agent, nor shall it operate to make Agent responsible or liable for any waste committed on the Property by the tenants or any other Person, or for any dangerous or defective condition of the Property, or for any negligence in the management, upkeep, repair or control of the Property resulting in loss or injury or death to any tenant, licensee, employee or stranger.  Nothing herein contained shall be construed as constituting Agent a “mortgagee in possession.”

 

5.20. Joint and Several Liability.  If Borrower consists of more than one person, each shall be jointly and severally liable for the faithful performance of all of Borrower’s obligations under this Deed of Trust and the other Loan Documents.

 

5.21. Merger.  No merger shall occur as a result of Agent or Lender’s acquiring any other estate in or any other lien on the Property unless Agent or Lender consents to a merger in writing.

 

5.22. Future Advances.  This Deed of Trust is given to secure not only the existing Secured Obligations, but also future advances (whether such advances are obligatory or are made at the option of Agent, or otherwise) made by Agent under the Note or this Deed of Trust, to the same extent as if such future advances were made on the date of the execution of this Deed of Trust.  The total amount of Secured Obligations secured hereby may increase or decrease from time to time, but the total unpaid principal balance of indebtedness secured hereby (including disbursements that the Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, make under this Deed of Trust, the Loan Documents or any other document with respect thereto) at any one time outstanding may be substantially less but shall not exceed five (5) times the aggregate face amount of the Note.  This Deed of Trust shall be valid and have priority to the extent of the maximum amount secured hereby over all subsequent liens and encumbrances, including statutory liens, excepting solely taxes and assessments levied on the Property given priority by law.

6.1. Rights of Trustee.  With the approval of Agent, Trustee shall have the right to take any and all of the following actions:  (a) to select, employ and consult with counsel (who may be, but need not be, counsel for Agent) upon any matters arising hereunder, including the preparation, execution and interpretation of the Loan Documents, and shall be fully protected in relying as to legal matters on the advice of counsel, (b) to execute any of the trusts and powers hereof and to perform any duty hereunder either directly or through his or her agents or attorneys, (c) to select and employ, in and about the execution of his or her duties hereunder, suitable accountants, engineers and other experts, agents and attorneys-in-fact, either corporate or individual, not regularly in the employ of Trustee (and Trustee shall not be answerable for any act, default, negligence, or misconduct of any such accountant, engineer or other expert, agent or attorney-in-fact, if selected with reasonable care, or for any error of judgment or act done by Trustee in good faith, or be otherwise responsible or accountable under any circumstances whatsoever, except for Trustee’s gross negligence or bad faith), and (d) any and all other lawful action that Agent may instruct Trustee to take to protect or enforce Agent’s rights hereunder.  Trustee shall not be personally liable in case of entry by Trustee, or anyone entering by virtue of the powers herein granted to Trustee, upon the Property for debts contracted for or liability or damages incurred in the management or operation of the Property.  Trustee shall have the right to rely on any instrument, document, or signature authorizing or supporting any action taken or proposed to be taken by Trustee hereunder, believed by Trustee in good faith to be genuine.  Trustee shall be entitled to reimbursement for expenses incurred by Trustee in the performance of Trustee’s duties hereunder and to reasonable compensation for such of Trustee’s services hereunder as shall be rendered.  Grantor will, from time to time, pay the compensation due to Trustee hereunder and reimburse Trustee for, and save and hold Trustee harmless against, any and all liability and expenses which may be incurred by Trustee in the performance of Trustee’s duties.

 

6.2. Substitute Trustee.  The Trustee may resign by an instrument in writing addressed to Agent, or Trustee may be removed at any time with or without cause by an instrument in writing executed by Agent.  In case of the death, resignation, removal, or disqualification of Trustee, or if for any reason Agent shall deem it desirable to appoint a substitute or successor trustee to act instead of the herein named trustee or any substitute or successor trustee, then Agent shall have the right and is hereby authorized and empowered to appoint a successor trustee(s), or a substitute trustee(s), without other formality than appointment and designation in writing executed by Agent and the authority hereby conferred shall extend to the appointment of other successor and substitute trustees successively until the Secured Obligations has been paid in full, or until the Property is fully and finally sold hereunder.  If Agent is a corporation or association and such appointment is executed on its behalf by an officer of such corporation or association, such appointment shall be conclusively presumed to be executed with authority and shall be valid and sufficient without proof of any action by the board of directors or any superior

officer of the corporation or association.  Upon the making of any such appointment and designation, all of the estate and title of Trustee in the Property shall vest in the named successor or substitute Trustee(s) and he shall thereupon succeed to, and shall hold, possess and execute, all the rights, powers, privileges, immunities and duties herein conferred upon Trustee.  Any substitute trustee appointed pursuant to any of the provisions hereof shall, without any further act, deed or conveyance, become vested with all the estates, properties, rights, powers, and trusts of its, his or her predecessor in the rights hereunder with like effect as if originally named as Trustee herein; but nevertheless, upon the written request of Agent or of the substitute trustee, the Trustee ceasing to act shall execute and deliver any instrument transferring to such substitute trustee, upon the trusts herein expressed, all the estates, properties, rights, powers, and trusts of the Trustee so ceasing to act, and shall duly assign, transfer and deliver any of the property and moneys held by such Trustee to the substitute trustee so appointed in such Trustee’s place.  Should any deed, conveyance, or instrument of any nature be required from Grantor by any Trustee or substitute Trustee to more fully and certainly vest in and confirm to Trustee or substitute Trustee such estates, rights, powers, and duties, then, upon request by Trustee or substitute trustee, any and all such deeds, conveyances and instruments shall be made, executed, acknowledged, and delivered and shall be caused to be recorded and/or filed by Grantor.  All references herein to “Trustee” shall be deemed to refer to Trustee (including any successor(s) or substitute(s) appointed and designated as herein provided) from time to time acting hereunder.

 

6.3. No Liability of Trustee.  The Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment or act done by Trustee in good faith, or be otherwise responsible or accountable under any circumstances whatsoever (including Trustee’s negligence), except for Trustee’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.  The Trustee shall have the right to rely on any instrument, document or signature authorizing or supporting any action taken or proposed to be taken by him hereunder, believed by him in good faith to be genuine.  By accepting or approving anything required to be observed, performed, or fulfilled or to be given to Trustee or Agent pursuant to the Loan Documents, including, without limitation, any officer’s certificate, balance sheet, statement of profit and loss or other financial statement, survey, appraisal or insurance policy, neither Trustee nor Agent shall be deemed to have warranted, consented to, or affirmed the sufficiency, legality, effectiveness or legal effect of the same, or of any term, provision, or condition thereof, and such acceptance or approval thereof shall not be or constitute any warranty or affirmation with respect thereto by Trustee or Agent.  All moneys received by Trustee shall, until used or applied as herein provided, be held in trust for the purposes for which they were received, but need not be segregated in any manner from any other moneys (except to the extent required by law), and Trustee shall be under no liability for interest on any moneys received by him hereunder.  Grantor hereby ratifies and confirms any and all acts which the herein named Trustee or its successor or successors, substitute or substitutes, in this trust, shall do lawfully by virtue hereof.  Grantor will reimburse Trustee for, and save him harmless against, any and all liability and expenses which may be incurred by him in the performance of its duties.  The foregoing indemnity shall not terminate upon discharge of the Secured Obligations or foreclosure, release or other termination hereof.

Funds may be advanced by Beneficiary, repaid by Grantor and subsequently readvanced by Beneficiary.

than all of the Property, this Deed of Trust shall continue as a lien and security interest on the remaining portion of the Property.  Trustee may postpone any sale by public announcement at the time and place noticed for the sale.

Should Trustee desire that more than one sale or other disposition of the Property or any portion thereof be conducted simultaneously, or successively, on the same day, or at such different days or times and in such order as Trustee may deem to be in its best interests, no such sale shall terminate or otherwise affect the lien and security interest of this Deed of Trust on any part of the Property not sold until all the Indebtedness has been fully satisfied.

Except as provided by law, Trustee is not obligated to notify any party of a pending sale under this Deed of Trust or of a pending or threatened action, claim or litigation before a legal, equitable or administrative tribunal having proper jurisdiction in which Grantor, Beneficiary or Trustee is a party.  Beneficiary may from time to time unilaterally substitute a successor to Trustee by a recordable or other instrument of substitution complying with any applicable requirements of law, or, in the absence of any such requirement, without other formality than appointment and designation in writing.  The recorded instrument of substitution will be conclusive proof of proper substitution of a new trustee which or who will, without conveyance from predecessor trustee, succeed to all of the predecessor trustee's title, estate, rights, powers and duties.

 

(g) NOTICE REGARDING ORAL AGREEMENTS.  NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN THAT ORAL AGREEMENTS OR ORAL COMMITMENTS TO LOAN MONEY, EXTEND CREDIT, MODIFY LOAN TERMS OR TO FORBEAR FROM ENFORCING REPAYMENT OF A DEBT ARE NOT ENFORCEABLE UNDER WASHINGTON LAW.
