  (d)

Payment and performance of all covenants and obligations, if any, of any rider attached as an Exhibit to this Deed of Trust; and

 

  (e)

Payment and performance of all future advances and other obligations that the then record owner of all or part of the Subject Property may agree to pay and/or perform (whether as principal, surety or guarantor) for the benefit of Beneficiary, when such future advance or obligation is evidenced by a writing which recites that it is secured by this Deed of Trust; and

 

  (f)

Payment and performance of all covenants and obligations of Grantor under any interest rate swap agreement, or other interest rate hedge agreement of any type executed by and between Grantor and Beneficiary, which agreement is evidenced by a writing that recites it is secured by this Deed of Trust; and

 

  (g)

All modifications, extensions and renewals of any of the obligations secured hereby, however evidenced, including, without limitation: (i) modifications of the required principal payment dates or interest payment dates or both, as the case may be, deferring or accelerating payment dates wholly or partly; or (ii) modifications, extensions or renewals at a different rate of interest whether or not in the case of a note, the modification, extension or renewal is evidenced by a new or additional promissory note or notes.

 

  2.2

provided therein, that: (a) the Note or the Loan Agreement may permit borrowing, repayment and re-borrowing so that repayments shall not reduce the amounts of the Secured Obligations; and (b) the rate of interest on one or more Secured Obligations may vary from time to time.

ARTICLE 3. ASSIGNMENT OF LEASES AND RENTS

 

  3.1

ASSIGNMENT. Grantor hereby irrevocably assigns to Beneficiary all of Grantor’s right, title and interest in, to and under: (a) all leases of the Subject Property or any portion thereof, and all other agreements of any kind relating to the use or occupancy of the Subject Property or any portion thereof, whether now existing or entered into after the date hereof (“Leases”); and (b) the rents, revenue, income, issues, deposits and profits of the Subject Property, including, without limitation, all parking income and all amounts payable and all rights and benefits accruing to Grantor under the Leases (“Payments”). The term “Leases” shall also include all guarantees of and security for the lessees’ performance thereunder, and all amendments, extensions, renewals or modifications thereto which are permitted hereunder. This is a present and absolute assignment, not an assignment for security purposes only, and Beneficiary’s right to the Leases and Payments is not contingent upon, and may be exercised without possession of, the Subject Property.

 

  3.2

GRANT OF LICENSE. Beneficiary confers upon Grantor a license (“License”) to collect and retain the Payments as they become due and payable, until the occurrence of a Default (as hereinafter defined). Upon a Default, the License shall be automatically revoked and Beneficiary may collect and apply the Payments pursuant to Section 6.4 without notice and without taking possession of the Subject Property. Grantor hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs the lessees under the Leases to rely upon and comply with any notice or demand by Beneficiary for the payment to Beneficiary of any rental or other sums which may at any time become due under the Leases, or for the performance of any of the lessees’ undertakings under the Leases, and the lessees shall have no right or duty to inquire as to whether any Default has actually occurred or is then existing hereunder. Grantor hereby relieves the lessees from any liability to Grantor by reason of relying upon and complying with any such notice or demand by Beneficiary.

 

  3.3

EFFECT OF ASSIGNMENT. The foregoing irrevocable assignment shall not cause Beneficiary to be: (a) a mortgagee in possession; (b) responsible or liable for the control, care, management or repair of the Subject Property or for performing any of the terms, agreements, undertakings, obligations, representations, warranties, covenants and conditions of the Leases; or (c) responsible or liable for any waste committed on the Subject Property by the lessees under any of the Leases or any other parties; for any dangerous or defective condition of the Subject Property; or for any negligence in the management, upkeep, repair or control of the Subject Property resulting in loss or injury or death to any lessee, licensee, employee, invitee or other person. Beneficiary and Trustee shall not directly or indirectly be liable to Grantor or any other person as a consequence of: (i) the exercise or failure to exercise by Beneficiary or Trustee, or any of their respective employees, agents, contractors or subcontractors, any of the rights, remedies or powers granted to Beneficiary or Trustee hereunder; or (ii) the failure or refusal of Beneficiary to perform or discharge any obligation, duty or liability of Grantor arising under the Leases.

 

  3.4

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. Grantor represents and warrants that, to the best of Grantor’s knowledge: (a) Grantor has delivered to Beneficiary a rent roll that, as of the date hereof, contains a true, accurate and complete list of all Leases; (b) all existing Leases are in full force and effect and are enforceable in accordance with their respective terms, and no breach or default, or event which would constitute a breach or default after notice or the passage of time, or both, exists under any existing Leases on the part of any party; (c) no rent or other payment under any existing Lease has been paid by any lessee for more than one (1) month in advance; and (d) none of the lessor’s interests under any of the Leases has been transferred or assigned.

 

  3.5

COVENANTS. Grantor covenants and agrees at Grantor’s sole cost and expense to: (a) perform the obligations of lessor contained in the Leases and enforce by all appropriate remedies performance by the lessees of the obligations of the lessees contained in the Leases; (b) give Beneficiary prompt written

 

Page 4


Loan No. 1002012

 

      

notice of any material default which occurs with respect to any of the Leases, whether the default be that of the lessee or of the lessor; (c) exercise Grantor’s best efforts to keep all portions of the Subject Property that are capable of being leased leased at rental rates pursuant to the terms of the Loan Agreement; (d) deliver to Beneficiary fully executed, copies of each and every Lease that it is required to deliver in accordance with the Loan Agreement; and (e) execute and record such additional assignments of any Lease or, if required by the terms of the Loan Agreement, use commercially reasonable effort to obtain specific subordinations (or subordination, attornment and non-disturbance agreements executed by the lessor and lessee) of any Lease to the Deed of Trust, in form and substance acceptable to Beneficiary, as Beneficiary may request. Grantor shall not, without Beneficiary’s prior written consent or as otherwise permitted by any provision of the Loan Agreement: (i) to the extent prohibited by the terms of the Loan Agreement, enter into any Leases after the date hereof; (ii) execute any other assignment relating to any of the Leases; (iii) to the extent prohibited by the terms of the Loan Agreement, discount any rent or other sums due under the Leases or collect the same in advance, other than to collect rentals one (1) month in advance of the time when it becomes due; (iv) to the extent prohibited by the terms of the Loan Agreement, terminate, modify or amend any of the terms of the Leases or in any manner release or discharge the lessees from any obligations thereunder; (v) to the extent prohibited by the terms of the Loan Agreement, consent to any assignment or subletting by any lessee; or (vi) subordinate or agree to subordinate any of the Leases to any other deed of trust or encumbrance. Any such attempted action in violation of the provisions of this Section 3.5 shall be null and void. Without in any way limiting the requirement of Beneficiary’s consent hereunder, any sums received by Grantor in consideration of any termination (or the release or discharge of any lessee) modification or amendment of any Lease shall be applied as set forth in the Loan Agreement.

 

  3.6

ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATES. Within thirty (30) days after written request by Beneficiary, Grantor shall deliver to Beneficiary and to any party designated by Beneficiary estoppel certificates executed by Grantor, and use its best efforts to obtain such estoppel certificates executed by each of the lessees, in each case in recordable form, certifying (if such be the case): (a) that the foregoing assignment and the Leases are in full force and effect; (b) the date of each lessee’s most recent payment of rent; (c) that there are no defenses or offsets outstanding, or stating those claimed by Grantor or lessees under the foregoing assignment or the Leases, as the case may be; and (d) any other information reasonably requested by Beneficiary.

In addition to Beneficiary’s rights as a “Secured Party” under the UCC, Beneficiary may, but shall not be obligated to, at any time without notice and at the expense of Grantor: (a) give notice to any person of Beneficiary’s rights hereunder and enforce such rights at law or in equity; (b) insure, protect, defend and preserve the Collateral or any rights or interests of Beneficiary therein; (c) inspect the Collateral; and (d) endorse, collect and receive any right to payment of money owing to Grantor under or from the Collateral.

  4.5

RIGHTS OF BENEFICIARY ON DEFAULT. Upon the occurrence of a Default (hereinafter defined) under this Deed of Trust, then in addition to all of Beneficiary’s rights as a “Secured Party” under the UCC or otherwise at law:

Page 6


Loan No. 1002012

Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, Beneficiary shall not be deemed to have accepted any property other than cash in satisfaction of any obligation of Grantor to Beneficiary unless Grantor shall make an express written election of said remedy under UCC §9620, or other applicable law.

  4.6

POWER OF ATTORNEY. Grantor hereby irrevocably appoints Beneficiary as Grantor’s attorney-in-fact (such agency being coupled with an interest), and as such attorney-in-fact Beneficiary may, without the obligation to do so, in Beneficiary’s name, or in the name of Grantor, prepare, execute and file or record financing statements, continuation statements, applications for registration and like papers necessary to create, perfect or preserve any of Beneficiary’s security interests and rights in or to any of the Collateral, and, upon a Default hereunder, take any other action required of Grantor; provided, however, that Beneficiary as such attorney-in-fact shall be accountable only for such funds as are actually received by Beneficiary.

 

  4.7

POSSESSION AND USE OF COLLATERAL. Except as otherwise provided in this Section or the other Loan Documents (as defined in the Loan Agreement), so long as no Default exists under this Deed of Trust or any of the Loan Documents, Grantor may possess, use, move, transfer or dispose of any of the Collateral in the ordinary course of Grantor’s business and in accordance with the Loan Agreement.

ARTICLE 5. RIGHTS AND DUTIES OF THE PARTIES

 

  5.1

TITLE. Grantor represents and warrants that, except as disclosed to Beneficiary in a writing which refers to this warranty, Grantor lawfully holds and possesses fee simple title to the Subject Property without limitation on the right to encumber, and that this Deed of Trust is a first and prior lien on the Subject Property. Grantor hereby represents and warrants that all of the Subject Property is a single tax parcel, and there are no properties included in such tax parcel other than the Subject Property. Grantor further covenants and agrees that it shall not cause all or any portion of the Subject Property to be replatted or for any lots or boundary lines to be adjusted, changed or altered for either ad valorem tax purposes or otherwise, and shall not consent to the assessment of the Subject Property in more than one tax parcel or in conjunction with any property other than the Subject Property.

 

  5.2

TAXES AND ASSESSMENTS.

 

  (a)

Subject to Grantor’s rights to contest in good faith payment of taxes as provided in Section 5.2(b) below, Grantor shall pay prior to delinquency all taxes, assessments, levies and charges imposed by any public or quasi-public authority or utility company which are or which may become a lien

 

Page 7


Loan No. 1002012

 

      

upon or cause a loss in value of the Subject Property or any interest therein. Grantor shall also pay prior to delinquency all taxes, assessments, levies and charges imposed by any public authority upon Beneficiary by reason of its interest in any Secured Obligation or in the Subject Property, or by reason of any payment made to Beneficiary pursuant to any Secured Obligation; provided, however, Grantor shall have no obligation to pay taxes which may be imposed from time to time upon Beneficiary and which are measured by and imposed upon Beneficiary’s net income.

 

  (b)

Grantor may contest in good faith any taxes or assessments if: (i) Grantor pursues the contest diligently and in compliance with applicable laws, in a manner which Beneficiary determines is not prejudicial to Beneficiary, and does not impair the rights of Beneficiary under any of the Loan Documents; and (b) Grantor deposits with Beneficiary any funds or other forms of assurance which Beneficiary in good faith determines from time to time appropriate to protect Beneficiary from the consequences of the contest being unsuccessful. Grantor’s compliance with this Section shall operate to prevent such claim, demand, levy or assessment from becoming a Default.

 

  5.3

TAX AND INSURANCE IMPOUNDS. At any time following the occurrence of a Default, at Beneficiary’s option and upon its demand, Grantor shall, until all Secured Obligations have been paid in full, pay to Beneficiary monthly, annually or as otherwise directed by Beneficiary an amount estimated by Beneficiary to be equal to: (a) all taxes, assessments, levies and charges imposed by any public or quasi-public authority or utility company which are or may become a lien upon the Subject Property or Collateral and will become due for the tax year during which such payment is so directed; and (b) premiums for fire, hazard and insurance required or requested pursuant to the Loan Documents when same are next due. If Beneficiary determines that any amounts paid by Grantor are insufficient for the payment in full of such taxes, assessments, levies, charges and/or insurance premiums, Beneficiary shall notify Grantor of the increased amounts required to pay all amounts when due, whereupon Grantor shall pay to Beneficiary within thirty (30) days thereafter the additional amount as stated in Beneficiary’s notice. All sums so paid shall not bear interest, except to the extent and in any minimum amount required by law; and Beneficiary shall, unless Grantor is otherwise in Default hereunder or under any Loan Document, apply said funds to the payment of, or at the sole option of Beneficiary release said funds to Grantor for the application to and payment of, such sums, taxes, assessments, levies, charges, and insurance premiums. Upon Default by Grantor hereunder or under any Loan Document, Beneficiary may apply all or any part of said sums to any Secured Obligation and/or to cure such Default, in which event Grantor shall be required to restore all amounts so applied, as well as to cure any other events or conditions of Default not cured by such application. Upon assignment of this Deed of Trust, Beneficiary shall have the right to assign in writing all amounts collected and in its possession to its assignee whereupon Beneficiary and the Trustee shall be released from all liability with respect thereto. Within ninety-five (95) days following full repayment of the Secured Obligations (other than full repayment of the Secured Obligations as a consequence of a foreclosure or conveyance in lieu of foreclosure of the liens and security interests securing the Secured Obligations) or at such earlier time as Beneficiary may elect, the balance of all amounts collected and in Beneficiary’s possession shall be paid to Grantor and no other party shall have any right or claim thereto.

 

  5.4

PERFORMANCE OF SECURED OBLIGATIONS. Grantor shall promptly pay and perform each Secured Obligation when due.

 

  5.5

LIENS, ENCUMBRANCES AND CHARGES. Grantor shall immediately discharge any lien not approved by Beneficiary in writing that has or may attain priority over this Deed of Trust. Subject to the following sentence, Grantor shall pay when due all obligations secured by or which may become liens and encumbrances which shall now or hereafter encumber or appear to encumber all or any part of the Subject Property or Collateral, or any interest therein, whether senior or subordinate hereto. If a claim of lien is recorded which affects the Subject Property or a bonded stop notice is served upon Beneficiary, Grantor shall, within twenty (20) calendar days of such recording or service or within five (5) calendar days of Beneficiary’s demand, whichever occurs first: (a) pay and discharge the claim of lien or bonded stop notice; (b) effect the release thereof by recording or delivering to Beneficiary a surety bond in sufficient form and amount; or (c) provide Beneficiary with other assurances which Beneficiary deems, in

 

Page 8


Loan No. 1002012

 

      

its sole discretion, to be satisfactory for the payment of such claim of lien or bonded stop notice and for the full and continuous protection of Beneficiary from the effect of such lien or bonded stop notice.

 

  5.6

DAMAGES; INSURANCE AND CONDEMNATION PROCEEDS.

 

  (a)

The following (whether now existing or hereafter arising) are all absolutely and irrevocably assigned by Grantor to Beneficiary and, at the request of Beneficiary, shall be paid directly to Beneficiary: (i) all awards of damages and all other compensation payable directly or indirectly by reason of a condemnation or proposed condemnation for public or private use affecting all or any part of, or any interest in, the Subject Property or Collateral; (ii) all other claims and awards for damages to, or decrease in value of, all or any part of, or any interest in, the Subject Property or Collateral; (iii) all proceeds of any insurance policies (whether or not expressly required by Beneficiary to be maintained by Grantor, including, without limitation, earthquake insurance, environmental insurance and terrorism insurance, if any) payable by reason of loss sustained to all or any part of the Subject Property or Collateral; and (iv) all interest which may accrue on any of the foregoing. Subject to applicable law and Section 5.6(b) below, and without regard to any requirement contained in Section 5.7(d), Beneficiary may at its discretion apply all or any of the proceeds it receives to its expenses in settling, prosecuting or defending any claim and may apply the balance to the Secured Obligations in any such order acceptable to Beneficiary, and/or Beneficiary may release all or any part of the proceeds to Grantor upon any conditions Beneficiary may impose. Beneficiary may commence, appear in, defend or prosecute any assigned claim or action and may adjust, compromise, settle and collect all claims and awards assigned to Beneficiary; provided, however, in no event shall Beneficiary be responsible for any failure to collect any claim or award, regardless of the cause of the failure, including, without limitation, any malfeasance or nonfeasance by Beneficiary or its employees or agents.

 

  (b)

Beneficiary shall permit insurance or condemnation proceeds held by Beneficiary to be used for repair or restoration but may condition such application upon reasonable conditions, including, without limitation: (i) the deposit with Beneficiary of such additional funds which Beneficiary determines are needed to pay all costs of the repair or restoration, (including, without limitation, taxes, financing charges, insurance and rent during the repair period); (ii) the establishment of an arrangement for lien releases and disbursement of funds acceptable to Beneficiary; (iii) the delivery to Beneficiary of plans and specifications for the work, a contract for the work signed by a contractor acceptable to Beneficiary, a cost breakdown for the work and a payment and performance bond for the work, all of which shall be acceptable to Beneficiary; and (iv) the delivery to Beneficiary of evidence acceptable to Beneficiary (aa) that after completion of the work the income from the Subject Property will be sufficient to pay all expenses and debt service for the Subject Property; (bb) of the continuation of Leases acceptable to and required by Beneficiary; (cc) that upon completion of the work, the size, capacity and total value of the Subject Property will be at least as great as it was before the damage or condemnation occurred; (dd) that there has been no material adverse change in the financial condition or credit of Grantor since the date of this Deed of Trust; (ee) no Default shall have occurred, and (ff) of the satisfaction of any additional conditions that Beneficiary may reasonably establish to protect its security. Grantor hereby acknowledges that the conditions described above are reasonable, and, if such conditions have not been satisfied within sixty (60) days of receipt by Beneficiary of such insurance or condemnation proceeds, then Beneficiary may apply such insurance or condemnation proceeds to pay the Secured Obligations in such order and amounts as Beneficiary in its sole discretion may choose.

 

  (c)

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 5.6, if the insurance or condemnation proceeds equal $1,000,000 or less, Beneficiary shall release such proceeds to Grantor for repair or restoration of the Subject Property without any additional requirements or conditions.

 

  5.7

more than fifteen (15) days prior to the termination date of any existing coverage), to provide evidence of such insurance to Beneficiary, and to comply with the requirements of any insurance companies providing such insurance; (b) to keep the Subject Property and Collateral in good condition and repair; (c) not to remove or demolish the Subject Property or Collateral or any part thereof, not to alter, restore or add to the Subject Property or Collateral and not to initiate or acquiesce in any change in any zoning or other land classification which affects the Subject Property without Beneficiary’s prior written consent or as provided in the Loan Agreement; (d) to complete or restore promptly and in good and workmanlike manner the Subject Property and Collateral, or any part thereof which may be damaged or destroyed, without regard to whether Beneficiary elects to require that insurance proceeds be used to reduce the Secured Obligations as provided in Section 5.6; (e) to comply with all laws, ordinances, regulations and standards, and all covenants, conditions, restrictions and equitable servitudes, whether public or private, of every kind and character which affect the Subject Property or Collateral and pertain to acts committed or conditions existing thereon, including, without limitation, any work, alteration, improvement or demolition mandated by such laws, covenants or requirements; (f) not to commit or permit waste of the Subject Property or Collateral; and (g) to do all other acts which from the character or use of the Subject Property or Collateral may be reasonably necessary to maintain and preserve its value.

 

  5.8

DEFENSE AND NOTICE OF LOSSES, CLAIMS AND ACTIONS. At Grantor’s sole expense, Grantor shall protect, preserve and defend the Subject Property and Collateral and title to and right of possession of the Subject Property and Collateral, the security hereof and the rights and powers of Beneficiary and Trustee hereunder against all adverse claims.

Trustee shall not be responsible for the execution, acknowledgment, or validity of the Loan Documents, or for the proper authorization thereof, or for the sufficiency of the lien and security interest purported to be created hereby, and Trustee makes no representation in respect thereof or in respect of the rights, remedies, and recourses of Beneficiary.

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 INDEMNIFY AND HOLD HARMLESS TRUSTEE AGAINST, ANY AND ALL LIABILITY AND EXPENSES WHICH MAY BE INCURRED BY TRUSTEE IN THE PERFORMANCE OF TRUSTEE’S DUTIES.

 

  (d)

  (b)

GRANTOR INDEMNIFIES TRUSTEE AND BENEFICIARY AGAINST, AND HOLDS TRUSTEE AND BENEFICIARY HARMLESS FROM, ALL LOSSES, DAMAGES, LIABILITIES, CLAIMS, CAUSES OF ACTION, JUDGMENTS, COURT COSTS, ATTORNEYS’ FEES AND OTHER LEGAL EXPENSES, COST OF EVIDENCE OF TITLE, COST OF EVIDENCE OF VALUE, AND OTHER EXPENSES WHICH EITHER MAY SUFFER OR INCUR: (i) BY REASON OF THIS DEED OF TRUST; (ii) BY REASON OF THE EXECUTION OF THIS DEED OF TRUST OR IN PERFORMANCE OF ANY ACT REQUIRED OR PERMITTED HEREUNDER OR BY LAW; (iii) AS A RESULT OF ANY FAILURE OF GRANTOR TO PERFORM GRANTOR’S OBLIGATIONS; OR (iv) BY REASON OF ANY ALLEGED OBLIGATION OR UNDERTAKING ON BENEFICIARY’S PART TO PERFORM OR DISCHARGE ANY OF THE REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES, CONDITIONS, COVENANTS OR OTHER OBLIGATIONS CONTAINED IN ANY OTHER DOCUMENT RELATED TO THE SUBJECT PROPERTY. THE ABOVE OBLIGATION OF GRANTOR TO INDEMNIFY AND HOLD HARMLESS TRUSTEE AND BENEFICIARY SHALL SURVIVE THE RELEASE AND CANCELLATION OF THE SECURED OBLIGATIONS AND THE RELEASE AND RECONVEYANCE OR PARTIAL RELEASE AND RECONVEYANCE OF THIS DEED OF TRUST.

 

  (c)

Grantor shall pay all amounts and indebtedness arising under this Section 5.11 immediately upon demand by Trustee or Beneficiary together with interest thereon from the date the indebtedness arises at the rate of interest then applicable to the principal balance of the Note as specified therein.

 

  5.12

SUBSTITUTION OF TRUSTEES. From time to time, by a writing, signed and acknowledged by Beneficiary and recorded in the Office of the Recorder of the County in which the Subject Property is situated, Beneficiary may appoint another trustee to act in the place and stead of Trustee or any successor. Such writing shall set forth any information required by law. The recordation of such instrument of substitution shall discharge Trustee herein named and shall appoint the new trustee as the trustee hereunder with the same effect as if originally named Trustee herein. A writing recorded pursuant to the provisions of this Section 5.12 shall be conclusive proof of the proper substitution of such new Trustee.

 

  5.13

DUE ON SALE OR ENCUMBRANCE. The terms “Loan”, “Loan Documents” and “Loan Agreement” have the meaning given them in the Loan Agreement described in Section 2.1. Grantor represents, agrees and acknowledges that:

 

  (a)

Improvement and operation of real property is a highly complex activity which requires substantial knowledge of law and business conditions and practices, and an ability to control, coordinate and schedule the many factors affecting such improvement and operation. Experience, financial stability, managerial ability and a good reputation in the business community enhance an owner’s and operator’s ability to obtain market rents and to induce cooperation in scheduling and are taken into account by Beneficiary in approving loan applications.

 

  (b)

Grantor has represented to Beneficiary, not only in the representations and warranties contained in the Loan Documents, but also in its initial loan application and in all of the negotiations connected with Beneficiary making the Loan, certain facts concerning Grantor’s financial stability, managerial and operational ability, reputation, skill, and creditworthiness. Beneficiary has relied upon these representations and warranties as a substantial and material consideration in its decision to make the Loan.

 

  (c)

The conditions and terms provided in the Loan Agreement were induced by these representations and warranties and would not have been made available by Beneficiary in the absence of these representations and warranties.

 

Page 12


Loan No. 1002012

 

  (d)

Beneficiary would not have made this Loan if Beneficiary did not have the right to sell, transfer, assign, or grant participations in the Loan and in the Loan Documents, and that such participations are dependent upon the potential participants’ reliance on such representations and warranties.

 

  (e)

Grantor’s financial stability and managerial and operational ability and that of those persons or entities having a direct or beneficial interest in Grantor are a substantial and material consideration to any third parties who have entered or will enter into agreements with Grantor.

 

  (f)

Beneficiary has relied upon the skills and services offered by such third parties and the provision of such skills and services is jeopardized if Grantor breaches its covenants contained below regarding Transfers.

 

  (g)

A transfer of possession of or title to the Subject Property, or a change in the person or entity operating, developing, constructing or managing the Subject Property, would substantially increase the risk of Default under the Loan Documents and significantly and materially impair and reduce Beneficiary’s security for the Note.

 

  (h)

As used herein, the term “Transfer” shall mean each of the following actions or events: the sale, transfer, assignment, lease as a whole, encumbrance, hypothecation, mortgage or pledge in any manner whatsoever, whether voluntarily, involuntarily or by operation of law of: (i) the Subject Property or Collateral or any interest therein; (ii) title to any other security more specifically described in any Loan Document; (iii) Grantor’s right, title and/or interest in the Loan Documents and any subsequent documents executed by Grantor in connection therewith; (iv) legal or beneficial ownership of any partnership interest in Grantor if Grantor is a partnership; (v) legal or beneficial ownership of any membership interest in Grantor if Grantor is a limited liability company; (vi) legal or beneficial ownership of any partnership interest in any general partner, venturer or member of Grantor; or (vii) legal or beneficial ownership of any of the stock in Grantor if Grantor is a corporation or in any general partner, venturer or member in Grantor that is a corporation.

 

  (i)

Grantor shall not make or commit to make any Transfer without Beneficiary’s prior written consent, which it may grant or withhold at its sole discretion (except with respect to those Transfers reasonably approved by Beneficiary or otherwise expressly permitted under Sections 9.17, 9.18 and 9.19 of the Loan Agreement). It is expressly agreed that Beneficiary may predicate Beneficiary’s decision to grant consent to a Transfer on such terms and conditions as Beneficiary may require, in Beneficiary’s sole discretion, including without limitation (i) consideration of the creditworthiness of the party to whom such Transfer will be made and its development and management ability with respect to the Subject Property, (ii) consideration of whether the security for repayment, performance and discharge of the Secured Obligations, or Beneficiary’s ability to enforce its rights, remedies, and recourses with respect to such security, will be impaired in any way by the proposed Transfer, (iii) an increase in the rate of interest payable under the Note or any other change in the terms and provisions of the Note and other Loan Documents, (iv) reimbursement of Beneficiary for all costs and expenses incurred by Beneficiary in investigating the creditworthiness and management ability of the party to whom such Transfer will be made and in determining whether Beneficiary’s security will be impaired by the proposed Transfer, (v) payment to Beneficiary of a transfer fee to cover the cost of documenting the Transfer in its records, (vi) payment of Beneficiary’s reasonable attorneys’ fees in connection with such Transfer, (vii) endorsements (to the extent available under applicable law) to any existing mortgagee title insurance policies or construction binders insuring Beneficiary’s liens and security interests covering the Subject Property, and (viii) require additional security for the payment, performance and discharge of the Secured Obligations. If Beneficiary’s consent should be given, any Transfer shall be subject to the Loan Documents and any transferee of Grantor’s interest shall: (i) assume all of Grantor’s obligations thereunder; and (ii) agree to be bound by all provisions and perform all obligations contained therein; provided, however, that such assumption shall not release Grantor or any maker or any guarantor of the Note from any liability thereunder

 

Page 13


Loan No. 1002012

 

      

or under any other Loan Documents without the prior written consent of Beneficiary. In the event of any Transfer without the prior written consent of Beneficiary, whether or not Beneficiary elects to enforce its right to accelerate the Loan pursuant to Sections 6.1 and 6.2, all sums owing under the Note, as well as all other charges, expenses and costs owing under the Loan Documents, shall at the option of Beneficiary, automatically bear interest at five percent (5%) above the rate provided in the Note, from the date (or any date thereafter) of such unconsented to Transfer. Grantor acknowledges that the automatic shift(s) to this alternate rate is reasonable since the representations that Beneficiary relied upon in making the Loan may no longer be relied upon. A consent by Beneficiary to one or more Transfers shall not be construed as a consent to further Transfers or as a waiver of Beneficiary’s consent with respect to future Transfers.

 

  5.14

RELEASES, EXTENSIONS, MODIFICATIONS AND ADDITIONAL SECURITY. Without notice to or the consent, approval or agreement of any persons or entities having any interest at any time in the Subject Property and Collateral or in any manner obligated under the Secured Obligations (“Interested Parties”), Beneficiary may, from time to time, release any person or entity from liability for the payment or performance of any Secured Obligation, take any action or make any agreement extending the maturity or otherwise altering the terms or increasing the amount of any Secured Obligation, or accept additional security or release all or a portion of the Subject Property and Collateral and other security for the Secured Obligations. None of the foregoing actions shall release or reduce the personal liability of any of said Interested Parties, or release or impair the priority of the lien of and security interests created by this Deed of Trust upon the Subject Property and Collateral.

 

  5.15

RECONVEYANCE. Upon Beneficiary’s written request, and upon surrender to Trustee for cancellation of this Deed of Trust or a certified copy thereof and any note, instrument, or instruments setting forth all obligations secured hereby, Trustee shall reconvey, without warranty, the Subject Property or that portion thereof then held hereunder. To the extent permitted by law, the reconveyance may describe the grantee as “the person or persons legally entitled thereto” and the recitals of any matters or facts in any reconveyance executed hereunder shall be conclusive proof of the truthfulness thereof. Neither Beneficiary nor Trustee shall have any duty to determine the rights of persons claiming to be rightful grantees of any reconveyance. When the Subject Property has been fully reconveyed, the last such reconveyance shall operate as a reassignment of all future rents, issues and profits of the Subject Property to the person or persons legally entitled thereto. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Beneficiary hereby agrees, subject to the provisions of Section 2.10 of the Loan Agreement, to cause Trustee to reconvey the Subject Property notwithstanding the fact that all of the Secured Obligations have not been satisfied.

 

  5.16

SUBROGATION. Beneficiary shall be subrogated to the lien of all encumbrances, whether released of record or not, paid in whole or in part by Beneficiary pursuant to the Loan Documents or by the proceeds of any loan secured by this Deed of Trust.

 

  5.17

RIGHT OF INSPECTION. Beneficiary, its agents and employees, may enter the Subject Property at any reasonable time for the purpose of inspecting the Subject Property and Collateral and ascertaining Grantor’s compliance with the terms hereof.

 

  5.18

CONTRACTS. Grantor will deliver to Beneficiary a copy of each Contract promptly after the execution of same by all parties thereto and subject to any approval of Beneficiary required by any of the Loan Documents. Within twenty (20) days after a request by Beneficiary, Grantor shall prepare and deliver to Beneficiary a complete listing of all Contracts, showing date, term, parties, subject matter, concessions, whether any defaults exist, and other information specified by Beneficiary, of or with respect to each of such Contracts, together with a copy thereof (if so requested by Beneficiary). Grantor represents and warrants that none of the Contracts encumber or create a lien on the Subject Property, but are personal with Grantor. As used herein, the term “Contract” shall mean any management agreement, leasing and brokerage agreement, and operating or service contract with respect to the Subject Property or Collateral.

Loan No. 1002012

 

ARTICLE 6. DEFAULT PROVISIONS

 

  6.1

DEFAULT. For all purposes hereof, the term “Default” shall mean (a) the existence of any Event of Default as defined in the Loan Agreement; (b) at Beneficiary’s option, the failure of Grantor to make any payment of principal or interest on the Note or to pay any other amount due hereunder or under the Note when the same is due and payable, whether at maturity, by acceleration or otherwise; (c) the failure of Grantor to perform any non-monetary obligation hereunder, or the failure to be true of any representation or warranty of Grantor contained herein and the continuance of such failure for ten (10) days after notice, or within any longer grace period, if any, allowed in the Loan Agreement for such failure, or (d) if Grantor or any other Person shall make a Transfer without the prior written consent of Beneficiary (which consent may be withheld in Beneficiary’s sole discretion (except for those Transfers reasonably approved by Beneficiary or otherwise expressly permitted under Sections 9.17, 9.18, and 9.19 of the Loan Agreement) or conditioned as provided in Section 5.13).

 

  6.2

RIGHTS AND REMEDIES. At any time after Default, Beneficiary and Trustee shall each have all the following rights and remedies:

 

  (a)

With or without notice, to declare all Secured Obligations immediately due and payable;

 

  (b)

With or without notice, and without releasing Grantor from any Secured Obligation, and without becoming a mortgagee in possession, to cure any breach or Default of Grantor and, in connection therewith, to enter upon the Subject Property and do such acts and things as Beneficiary or Trustee deem necessary or desirable to protect the security hereof, including, without limitation: (i) to appear in and defend any action or proceeding purporting to affect the security of this Deed of Trust or the rights or powers of Beneficiary or Trustee under this Deed of Trust; (ii) to pay, purchase, contest or compromise any encumbrance, charge, lien or claim of lien which, in the sole judgment of either Beneficiary or Trustee, is or may be senior in priority to this Deed of Trust, the judgment of Beneficiary or Trustee being conclusive as between the parties hereto; (iii) to obtain insurance; (iv) to pay any premiums or charges with respect to insurance required to be carried under this Deed of Trust; or (v) to employ counsel, accountants, contractors and other appropriate persons.

 

  (c)

To commence and maintain an action or actions in any court of competent jurisdiction to foreclose this instrument as a mortgage or to obtain specific enforcement of the covenants of Grantor hereunder, and Grantor agrees that such covenants shall be specifically enforceable by injunction or any other appropriate equitable remedy and that for the purposes of any suit brought under this subparagraph, Grantor waives the defense of laches and any applicable statute of limitations;

 

  (d)

To apply to a court of competent jurisdiction for and obtain appointment of a receiver of the Subject Property as a matter of strict right and without regard to the adequacy of the security for the repayment of the Secured Obligations, the existence of a declaration that the Secured Obligations are immediately due and payable, or the filing of a notice of default, and Grantor hereby consents to such appointment;

 

  (e)

To enter upon, possess, manage and operate the Subject Property or any part thereof, to take and possess all documents, books, records, papers and accounts of Grantor or the then owner of the Subject Property, to make, terminate, enforce or modify Leases of the Subject Property upon such terms and conditions as Beneficiary deems proper, to make repairs, alterations and improvements to the Subject Property as necessary, in Trustee’s or Beneficiary’s sole judgment, to protect or enhance the security hereof;

 

  (f)

To execute a written notice of such Default and of its election to cause the Subject Property to be sold to satisfy the Secured Obligations. As a condition precedent to any such sale, Trustee shall give and record such notice as the law then requires. When the minimum period of time required by law after such notice has elapsed, Trustee, without notice to or demand upon Grantor except

 

Page 15


Loan No. 1002012

 

      

as required by law, shall sell the Subject Property at the time and place of sale fixed by it in the notice of sale, at one or several sales, either as a whole or in separate parcels and in such manner and order, all as Beneficiary in its sole discretion may determine, at public auction to the highest bidder for cash, in lawful money of the United States, payable at time of sale. Neither Grantor nor any other person or entity other than Beneficiary shall have the right to direct the order in which the Subject Property is sold. Subject to requirements and limits imposed by law, Trustee may from time to time postpone sale of all or any portion of the Subject Property by public announcement at such time and place of sale. Trustee shall deliver to the purchaser at such sale a deed conveying the Subject Property or portion thereof so sold, but without any covenant or warranty, express or implied. The recitals in the deed of any matters or facts shall be conclusive proof of the truthfulness thereof. Any person, including Trustee, Grantor or Beneficiary may purchase at the sale;

 

  (g)

To resort to and realize upon the security hereunder and any other security now or later held by Beneficiary concurrently or successively and in one or several consolidated or independent judicial actions or lawfully taken non-judicial proceedings, or both, and to apply the proceeds received upon the Secured Obligations all in such order and manner as Trustee and Beneficiary, or either of them, determine in their sole discretion.

 

  (h)

Upon sale of the Subject Property at any judicial or non-judicial foreclosure, Beneficiary may credit bid (as determined by Beneficiary in its sole and absolute discretion) all or any portion of the Secured Obligations. In determining such credit bid, Beneficiary may, but is not obligated to, take into account all or any of the following: (i) appraisals of the Subject Property as such appraisals may be discounted or adjusted by Beneficiary in its sole and absolute underwriting discretion; (ii) expenses and costs incurred by Beneficiary with respect to the Subject Property prior to foreclosure; (iii) expenses and costs which Beneficiary anticipates will be incurred with respect to the Subject Property after foreclosure, but prior to resale, including, without limitation, costs of structural reports and other due diligence, costs to carry the Subject Property prior to resale, costs of resale (e.g. commissions, attorneys’ fees, and taxes), costs of any hazardous materials clean-up and monitoring, costs of deferred maintenance, repair, refurbishment and retrofit, costs of defending or settling litigation affecting the Subject Property, and lost opportunity costs (if any), including the time value of money during any anticipated holding period by Beneficiary; (iv) declining trends in real property values generally and with respect to properties similar to the Subject Property; (v) anticipated discounts upon resale of the Subject Property as a distressed or foreclosed property; (vi) the fact of additional collateral (if any), for the Secured Obligations; and (vii) such other factors or matters that Beneficiary (in its sole and absolute discretion) deems appropriate. In regard to the above, Grantor acknowledges and agrees that: (w) Beneficiary is not required to use any or all of the foregoing factors to determine the amount of its credit bid; (x) this Section does not impose upon Beneficiary any additional obligations that are not imposed by law at the time the credit bid is made; (y) the amount of Beneficiary’s credit bid need not have any relation to any loan-to-value ratios specified in the Loan Documents or previously discussed between Grantor and Beneficiary; and (z) Beneficiary’s credit bid may be (at Beneficiary’s sole and absolute discretion) higher or lower than any appraised value of the Subject Property.

Grantor hereby authorizes the recording of this Deed of Trust upon the delivery of the same to Beneficiary, and any County Recorder is authorized to record the same.

 

  6.3

APPLICATION OF FORECLOSURE SALE PROCEEDS. After deducting all costs, fees and expenses of Trustee, and of this trust, including, without limitation, cost of evidence of title and attorneys’ fees in connection with sale and costs and expenses of sale and of any judicial proceeding wherein such sale may be made, Trustee shall apply all proceeds of any foreclosure sale: (a) to payment of all sums expended by Beneficiary under the terms hereof and not then repaid, with accrued interest at the rate of interest specified in the Note to be applicable on or after maturity or acceleration of the Note; (b) to payment of all other Secured Obligations; and (c) the remainder, if any, to the person or persons legally entitled thereto.

 

Page 16


Loan No. 1002012

 

  6.4

APPLICATION OF OTHER SUMS. All sums received by Beneficiary under Section 6.2 or Section 3.2, less all costs and expenses incurred by Beneficiary or any receiver under Section 6.2 or Section 3.2, including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees, shall be applied in payment of the Secured Obligations in such order as Beneficiary shall determine in its sole discretion; provided, however, Beneficiary shall have no liability for funds not actually received by Beneficiary.

 

  6.5

NO CURE OR WAIVER. Neither Beneficiary’s nor Trustee’s nor any receiver’s entry upon and taking possession of all or any part of the Subject Property and Collateral, nor any collection of rents, issues, profits, insurance proceeds, condemnation proceeds or damages, other security or proceeds of other security, or other sums, nor the application of any collected sum to any Secured Obligation, nor the exercise or failure to exercise of any other right or remedy by Beneficiary or Trustee or any receiver shall cure or waive any breach, Default or notice of default under this Deed of Trust, or nullify the effect of any notice of default or sale (unless all Secured Obligations then due have been paid and performed and Grantor has cured all other defaults), or impair the status of the security, or prejudice Beneficiary or Trustee in the exercise of any right or remedy, or be construed as an affirmation by Beneficiary of any tenancy, lease or option or a subordination of the lien of or security interests created by this Deed of Trust.

 

  6.6

PAYMENT OF COSTS, EXPENSES AND ATTORNEYS’ FEES. Grantor agrees to pay to Beneficiary immediately and without demand all costs and expenses incurred by Trustee and Beneficiary pursuant to Section 6.2 (including, without limitation, court costs and attorneys’ fees, whether incurred in litigation or not) with interest from the date of expenditure until said sums have been paid at the rate of interest then applicable to the principal balance of the Note as specified therein. In addition, Grantor shall pay to Trustee all Trustee’s fees hereunder and shall reimburse Trustee for all expenses incurred in the administration of this trust, including, without limitation, any attorneys’ fees.

NON-BORROWER GRANTOR RIDER

Exhibit B to Deed of Trust with Absolute Assignment of Leases and Rents, Security Agreement and Fixture Filing executed by KBSII Pierre Laclede Center, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, as Grantor, to Ford Nelson, Jr., as Trustee, for the benefit of WELLS FARGO BANK, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, as administrative agent for itself and certain other lenders, as Beneficiary, dated as of April 30, 2010 (“Deed of Trust”).

To the extent the Deed of Trust secures a promissory note and other loan documents (“Loan Documents”) made by a party or parties (“Borrower”) not identical to the party or parties constituting Grantor, the party or parties constituting Grantor agree as follows:

 

1.

CONDITIONS TO EXERCISE OF RIGHTS. Grantor hereby waives any right it may now or hereafter have to require Beneficiary, as a condition to the exercise of any remedy or other right against Grantor hereunder or under any other document executed by Grantor in connection with any Secured Obligation: (a) to proceed against any Borrower or other person, or against any other collateral assigned to Beneficiary by Grantor or any Borrower or other person; (b) to pursue any other right or remedy in Beneficiary’s power; (c) to give notice of the time, place or terms of any public or private sale of real or personal property collateral assigned to Beneficiary by any Borrower or other person (other than Grantor), or otherwise to comply with the UCC (as defined in the Deed of Trust) with respect to any such personal property collateral; or (d) to make or give (except as otherwise expressly provided in the Loan Documents) any presentment, demand, protest, notice of dishonor, notice of protest or other demand or notice of any kind in connection with any Secured Obligation or any collateral (other than the Subject Property) for any Secured Obligation.

 

2.

DEFENSES. Grantor hereby waives any defense it may now or hereafter have that relates to: (a) any disability or other defense of any Borrower or other person; (b) the cessation, from any cause other than full performance, of the obligations of Borrower or any other person; (c) the application of the proceeds of any Secured Obligation, by any Borrower or other person, for purposes other than the purposes represented to Grantor by any Borrower or otherwise intended or understood by Grantor or any Borrower; (d) any act or omission by Beneficiary which directly or indirectly results in or contributes to the release of any Borrower or other person or any collateral for any Secured Obligation; (e) the unenforceability or invalidity of any collateral assignment (other than this Deed of Trust) or guaranty with respect to any Secured Obligation, or the lack of perfection or continuing perfection or lack of priority of any lien (other than the lien hereof) which secures any Secured Obligation; (f) any failure of Beneficiary to marshal assets in favor of Grantor or any other person; (g) any modification of any Secured Obligation, including any renewal, extension, acceleration or increase in interest rate; (h) any and all rights and defenses arising out of an election of remedies by Beneficiary, even though that election of remedies, such as a nonjudicial foreclosure with respect to security for a guaranteed obligation, has destroyed Grantor’s rights of subrogation and reimbursement against the principal; (i) any law which provides that the obligation of a surety or guarantor must neither be larger in amount nor in other respects more burdensome than that of the principal or which reduces a surety’s or guarantor’s obligation in proportion to the principal obligation; (j) any failure of Beneficiary to file or enforce a claim in any bankruptcy or other proceeding with respect to any person; (k) the election by Beneficiary, in any bankruptcy proceeding of any person, of the application or non-application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the United States Bankruptcy Code; (l) any extension of credit or the grant of any lien under Section 364 of the United States Bankruptcy Code; (m) any use of cash collateral under Section 363 of the United States Bankruptcy Code; or (n) any agreement or stipulation with respect to the provision of adequate protection in any bankruptcy proceeding of any person. Grantor further waives any and all rights and defenses that Grantor may have because Borrower’s debt is secured by real property; this means, among other things, that: (1) Beneficiary may collect from Grantor without first foreclosing on any real or personal property collateral pledged by Borrower; (2) if Beneficiary forecloses on any real property collateral pledged by Borrower, then (A) the amount of the debt may be reduced only by the price for which that collateral is sold at the foreclosure sale, even if the collateral is worth more than the sale price, and (B) Beneficiary may collect from Grantor even if Beneficiary, by foreclosing on the real property collateral, has destroyed any right Grantor may have to collect from Borrower. The foregoing sentence is an unconditional and irrevocable waiver of any rights and defenses Grantor may have because Borrower’s debt is secured by real property. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing or any other provision hereof, Grantor further expressly waives to the extent permitted by law any and all rights and defenses, including without limitation any rights of subrogation, reimbursement, indemnification and contribution, which might otherwise be available to Grantor.

 

3.

SUBROGATION. Grantor hereby waives, until such time as all Secured Obligations are fully performed: (a) any right of subrogation against any Borrower that relates to any Secured Obligation; (b) any right to enforce any


    

remedy Grantor may now or hereafter have against any Borrower that relates to any Secured Obligation; and (c) any right to participate in any collateral now or hereafter assigned to Beneficiary with respect to any Secured Obligation.

 

4.

BORROWER INFORMATION. Grantor warrants and agrees: (a) that Beneficiary would not make the Loan but for this Deed of Trust; (b) that Grantor has not relied, and will not rely, on any representations or warranties by Beneficiary to Grantor with respect to the credit worthiness of any Borrower or the prospects of repayment of any Secured Obligation from sources other than the Subject Property; (c) that Grantor has established and/or will establish adequate means of obtaining from each Borrower on a continuing basis financial and other information pertaining to the business operations, if any, and financial condition of each Borrower; (d) that Grantor assumes full responsibility for keeping informed with respect to each Borrower’s business operations, if any, and financial condition; (e) that Beneficiary shall have no duty to disclose or report to Grantor any information now or hereafter known to Beneficiary with respect to any Borrower, including, without limitation, any information relating to any of Borrower’s business operations or financial condition; and (f) that Grantor is familiar with the terms and conditions of the Loan Documents and consents to all provisions thereof.

 

5.

REINSTATEMENT OF LIEN. Beneficiary’s rights hereunder shall be reinstated and revived, and the enforceability of this Deed of Trust shall continue, with respect to any amount at any time paid on account of any Secured Obligation which Beneficiary is thereafter required to restore or return in connection with a bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar proceeding with respect to any Borrower.

 

6.

SUBORDINATION. Until all of the Secured Obligations have been fully paid and performed: (a) Grantor hereby agrees that all existing and future indebtedness and other obligations of each Borrower to Grantor (collectively, the “Subordinated Debt”) shall be and are hereby subordinated to all Secured Obligations which constitute obligations of the applicable Borrower, and the payment thereof is hereby deferred in right of payment to the prior payment and performance of all such Secured Obligations; (b) Grantor shall not collect or receive any cash or non-cash payments on any Subordinated Debt or transfer all or any portion of the Subordinated Debt; and (c) in the event that, notwithstanding the foregoing, any payment by, or distribution of assets of, any Borrower with respect to any Subordinated Debt is received by Grantor, such payment or distribution shall be held in trust and immediately paid over to Beneficiary, is hereby assigned to Beneficiary as security for the Secured Obligations, and shall be held by Beneficiary in an interest bearing account until all Secured Obligations have been fully paid and performed.

 

7.

LAWFULNESS AND REASONABLENESS. Grantor warrants that all of the waivers in this Deed of Trust are made with full knowledge of their significance, and of the fact that events giving rise to any defense or other benefit waived by Grantor may destroy or impair rights which Grantor would otherwise have against Beneficiary, Borrower and other persons, or against collateral. Grantor agrees that all such waivers are reasonable under the circumstances and further agrees that, if any such waiver is determined (by a court of competent jurisdiction) to be contrary to any law or public policy, the other waivers herein shall nonetheless remain in full force and effect.

 

8.

ENFORCEABILITY. Grantor hereby acknowledges that: (a) the obligations undertaken by Grantor in this Deed of Trust are complex in nature, and (b) numerous possible defenses to the enforceability of these obligations may presently exist and/or may arise hereafter, and (c) as part of Beneficiary’s consideration for entering into this transaction, Beneficiary has specifically bargained for the waiver and relinquishment by Grantor of all such defenses, and (d) Grantor has had the opportunity to seek and receive legal advice from skilled legal counsel in the area of financial transactions of the type contemplated herein. Given all of the above, Grantor does hereby represent and confirm to Beneficiary that Grantor is fully informed regarding, and that Grantor does thoroughly understand: (i) the nature of all such possible defenses, and (ii) the circumstances under which such defenses may arise, and (iii) the benefits which such defenses might confer upon Grantor, and (iv) the legal consequences to Grantor of waiving such defenses. Grantor acknowledges that Grantor makes this Deed of Trust with the intent that this Deed of Trust and all of the informed waivers herein shall each and all be fully enforceable by Beneficiary, and that Beneficiary is induced to enter into this transaction in material reliance upon the presumed full enforceability thereof.

 

9.

WAIVER OF RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY. TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY THEN APPLICABLE LAW, EACH PARTY TO THIS DEED OF TRUST, AND BY ITS ACCEPTANCE HEREOF, BENEFICIARY, HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION (a) ARISING UNDER THE LOAN DOCUMENTS, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY PRESENT OR FUTURE MODIFICATION THEREOF OR (b) IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH OR RELATED OR


    

INCIDENTAL TO THE DEALINGS OF THE PARTIES HERETO OR ANY OF THEM WITH RESPECT TO THE LOAN DOCUMENTS (AS NOW OR HEREAFTER MODIFIED) OR ANY OTHER INSTRUMENT, DOCUMENT OR AGREEMENT EXECUTED OR DELIVERED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH, OR THE TRANSACTIONS RELATED HERETO OR THERETO, IN EACH CASE WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING, AND WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT OR TORT OR OTHERWISE; AND EACH PARTY AND BENEFICIARY HEREBY AGREES AND CONSENTS THAT ANY PARTY TO THIS DEED OF TRUST AND BENEFICIARY MAY FILE AN ORIGINAL COUNTERPART OR A COPY OF THIS SECTION WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE CONSENT OF THE PARTIES HERETO AND BENEFICIARY TO THE WAIVER OF THEIR RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY.

 

10.

INTEGRATION; INTERPRETATION. This Deed of Trust and the other Loan Documents contain or expressly incorporate by reference the entire agreement of the parties with respect to the matters contemplated therein and supersede all prior negotiations or agreements, written or oral. This Deed of Trust and the other Loan Documents shall not be modified except by written instrument executed by all parties.
