2. Insurance. Grantor shall keep the Premises now existing or hereafter erected, continuously insured for the benefit of Beneficiary against loss by fire, flood, windstorm and other casualties and contingencies as required by Beneficiary, in an amount at least equal to the full replacement value of the Premises.

Grantor shall purchase such insurance, shall pay all premiums therefor, and shall deliver to Beneficiary such policies along with evidence of premium payment as long as the Obligation remains unpaid. If Grantor fails to purchase such insurance, pay the premiums therefor or deliver said policies along with evidence of payment of premiums thereon, then Beneficiary, at its option, may purchase such insurance. Beneficiary may require, in its sole discretion, that the proceeds of any such insurance, or any part thereof, be applied to the reduction of the Obligation or to the restoration or repair of the damaged Premises as the work progresses.

 

3. Taxes, Assessments, Charges. Grantor shall pay all taxes, assessments and charges as may be lawfully levied against the Premises within thirty (30) days after the same shall become due. In the event that Grantor fails to so pay all taxes, assessments and charges as herein required, then Beneficiary, at its option, may pay the same.

 

4. Condemnation. Upon the condemnation or taking of the Premises, or any part thereof, by any authority pursuant to the power of eminent domain, Beneficiary shall be entitled to receive all or any portion of the amounts awarded or paid for such taking, up to the full amount of the Obligation, which amounts awarded or paid are hereby assigned to Beneficiary. Beneficiary’s right to receive any award or payment upon any taking shall not be affected, restricted or in any way impaired by the amount or value of any remaining portions of the Premises that may continue to be subject to the terms of this Deed of Trust.

 

5. Waste. Grantor covenants that it will keep the Premises in as good order, repair and condition as they are now, reasonable wear and tear excepted, and that it will not commit or permit any waste.

 

6. Warranties. Grantor covenants with Trustee and Beneficiary that it is seized of the Premises in fee simple, and has the right to convey the same in fee simple, that title is marketable and free and clear of all encumbrances except Permitted Liens (as defined in the Loan Agreement by and between the Borrower and the Beneficiary dated as even date herewith, which Loan Agreement is referred to herein as the “Loan Agreement”), and that Grantor will warrant and defend the title against the lawful claims of all persons whomsoever, except for the exceptions, if any, contained in any title insurance policy or report, certificate or opinion of title to and approved by Beneficiary in connection with this Deed of Trust and any Permitted Liens.

 

7. Substitution of Trustee. Beneficiary shall at any time have the irrevocable right to remove Trustee or any successor Trustee without notice or cause and to appoint a successor by an instrument in writing, duly acknowledged, in such form as to entitle such instrument to be recorded in the same registry where this Deed of Trust is recorded. Any successor Trustee so appointed shall be vested in the title to the Premises and shall possess all the powers, duties and obligations herein conferred on Trustee in the same manner and to the same extent as though successor Trustee was originally named herein as Trustee.

 

8. Expenses. Grantor agrees to indemnify and hold Trustee and Beneficiary harmless from and shall pay or reimburse them for all expenses of every kind, including, without limitation, fines, penalties, damages, attorneys’ fees, court costs, taxes, insurance premiums, and all costs of all inspections appraisals, environmental investigations and cleanups incidental to the creation, existence or protection of the Obligation, the Premises or this Deed of Trust, the collection of the Obligation, or the foreclosure of this Deed of Trust by suit or otherwise. All such expenses shall be added to the Obligation, shall bear interest at the rate provided in the Obligation for sums due after default (or at the “contract rate” if there is no “default rate”), and shall be due and payable to Beneficiary or Trustee upon demand. Grantor’s obligations hereunder shall be continuing and survive satisfaction of the Obligation, or foreclosure or sale under this Deed of Trust or delivery of a deed in lieu of foreclosure.

 

9. Environmental Conditions. Grantor warrants that (i) the Premises have not been and are not now being used in violation in any material respect of any federal, state or local environmental law, ordinance or regulation (“Environmental Law”); (ii) all operations of Grantor are being and in the future will be conducted in full compliance in all material respects with all Environmental Laws; (iii) except as previously disclosed to and approved by Beneficiary in writing, the Premises are free of underground storage tanks, out-of-use transformers, hazardous, radioactive, or toxic wastes, contaminants, oil, asbestos containing materials, or other materials, the production, use, storage, transportation, disposal, discharge, or removal of which is regulated, restricted, prohibited or penalized by any federal, state or local agency, authority or governmental unit (“Hazardous Substances”); (iv) Grantor has not filed nor been required to file any federal, state, or local reports or notices of any nature relating to the discovery, discharge, or disposal of Hazardous Substances on the Premises; and (v) no proceedings have been commenced or threatened, or citations, orders, or notices received, concerning the Premises and the alleged violation of any Environmental Law.

 

Except for materials necessary for the normal routine maintenance of the Premises, which materials shall be used in accordance in all material respects with all Environmental Laws, Grantor covenants that, without prior written consent of Beneficiary, it will not permit any Hazardous Substances to be brought into the Premises, and if otherwise brought, found or located thereon, Grantor will cause the same to be immediately removed, with proper disposal, will diligently undertake all necessary environmental cleanup procedures, and will otherwise fully comply with all Environmental Laws. Grantor covenants that it will immediately notify Beneficiary in writing of any accidents on or affecting the Premises involving Hazardous Substances, and will provide Beneficiary, upon request, with copies of all current or future environmentally related permits, filings, reports, assessments, audits, notices, complaints, and the like relating to the Premises. Grantor further covenants that upon request of Beneficiary, Grantor will, at its sole expense, obtain such environmental assessments for the Premises as Beneficiary may direct. Should Grantor fail to perform such environmental assessments within thirty (30) days of Beneficiary’s request, Beneficiary shall have the right, but not the obligation, to retain an environmental consultant to perform said assessments.

 

10. Appraisals. Grantor agrees that Beneficiary may order written appraisals or reappraisals of the Premises, at Grantor’s expense, when deemed necessary by Beneficiary. All such appraisals shall be in a form satisfactory to Beneficiary and from an appraiser designated by and satisfactory to Beneficiary.

 

11. Transfer or Mortgage of Premises. If all or any part of the Premises or any interest in it is sold, leased (other than to Borrower), mortgaged or otherwise transferred, Beneficiary may, in its sole discretion unless prohibited by law, declare the Obligation immediately due and payable in full.

 

12. Modifications. Grantor agrees that Beneficiary may make additional or future advances to Borrower, or may modify, extend, renew, forbear or make other accommodations with regard to the Obligation or this Deed of Trust, without Grantor’s consent.

 

13. Access Onto Premises. Beneficiary is hereby granted an easement to enter and to authorize others to enter upon the Premises for the purposes of conducting environmental assessments (including taking physical samples), inspecting, appraising or taking any other action deemed necessary or desirable by Beneficiary to protect its interest in the Premises. Grantor acknowledges that no adequate remedy at law exists for a violation of the easement and agrees Beneficiary is entitled to specific performance of its rights under the easement. The easement shall continue until the Obligation has been paid in full and this Deed of Trust has been cancelled or released of record.

 

14. Forbearance. No delay or forbearance by Beneficiary in exercising any or all of its rights hereunder or rights otherwise afforded by law, shall operate as a waiver thereof or preclude the exercise thereof during the continuance of any Event of Default or in the event of any subsequent Event of Default, and all such rights shall be cumulative.
