2. No Alteration or Demolition. Except in the ordinary course of the operation of the Grantor’s business at the Premises, the Grantor shall not materially alter or demolish any of the Improvements without the prior written consent of Lender, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, and shall comply with all statutes, ordinances and requirements of any governmental authority relating to the Property, and any part thereof, or the Grantor’s operations thereat.

3. Inspection. Lender may, at any time, cause an inspection by its representatives to be made of the Property, and such representatives shall be permitted reasonable access to the Property and every part thereof, subject, however, to the rights of the tenants therein.

4. No Liens or Subordinate Financing. The Grantor shall keep the Property free from liens which may have priority over the lien of this Security Instrument, except liens for taxes not yet due, and shall not allow any subordinate mortgage, deed of trust or security interest to encumber the Property.

5. Indemnification. The Grantor shall protect, indemnify and save harmless the Trustee and Lender from and against all liabilities, obligations, claims, damages, penalties, causes of action, costs and reasonable expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) imposed upon, incurred by or asserted against, the Trustee and/or Lender prior to the time the Trustee and/or Lender take possession of the Property by reason of (a) any failure on the part of the Grantor to perform or comply with any of the covenants or conditions of this Security Instrument; (b) the performance of any labor or services and the furnishing of any materials or other property with respect to the Property or any part thereof; or (c) any accident, injury to or death of persons or loss of or damage to property occurring on or about the Property or any part thereof.

All such charges, with interest, shall be due within fifteen (15) days after Lender notifies Grantor of such charges, and if not paid by such date, will bear interest at the Default Interest Rate stated (and as defined) in the Note. Payments made for taxes by Lender shall be a first lien on the Property to the extent of the taxes so paid with interest from the date of payment, regardless of the rank and priority of this Security Instrument. In the event that any action, suit or proceeding is brought against the Trustee and/or Lender by reason of any such occurrence, the Grantor, upon Lender’s request, shall, at the Grantor’s sole expense, resist and defend such action, suit or proceeding or will cause the same to be resisted and defended by counsel designated by the Grantor and approved by Lender.

The policies of insurance carried in accordance with this subparagraph (a) shall contain the “Replacement Cost Endorsement”;

(b)  Loss of rents or business interruption insurance in the amount necessary to service the Loan for a period of twelve (12) months, which coverage shall be maintained during the entire term of the Loan. The maximum deductible shall be Ten Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($10,000.00);

(h) Such other insurance, against the same or other hazards, and in such amounts, as may from time to time be reasonably required by Beneficiary.

All policies of insurance required by this Deed of Trust shall contain an endorsement or agreement by the insurer that any loss shall be payable in accordance with the terms of such policy notwithstanding any act or negligence of Grantor which might otherwise result in forfeiture of such insurance, and the further agreement of the insurer waiving all rights of set off, counterclaims or deductions against Grantor.

7.  Delivery of Policies and Payments of Premiums. All policies and endorsements of insurance shall be issued by companies licensed to do business in North Carolina, with a rating of at least A-VIII in the current Best’s insurance rating service, and manually signed. All policies of insurance shall show Beneficiary as Beneficiary and shall have attached thereto a standard Beneficiary clause for the benefit of Beneficiary in form satisfactory to Beneficiary and a waiver of subrogation. Grantor shall furnish Beneficiary with certificates of all policies of required insurance, together with the original policy document or a certified copy signed by the insurer. If Beneficiary consents to Grantor providing any of the required insurance through blanket policies carried by Grantor and covering more than one (1) location, then Grantor shall furnish Beneficiary with a certificate of insurance for each such policy setting forth the coverage as to the Property, the limits of liability as to the Property, the name of the carrier, the policy number, and the expiration date. At least thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of each such policy, Grantor shall furnish Beneficiary with evidence satisfactory to Beneficiary of the payment of the premium and arrangements for the reissuance of a policy continuing insurance in force as required by this Deed of Trust. All such policies shall contain a provision that such policies will not be canceled or materially amended, which term shall include any reduction in the scope or limits of coverage, without at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to Beneficiary.

All such charges, with interest, shall be due within ten (10) days after Beneficiary, notifies Grantor of such charges, and if not paid by such date, will bear interest at the Default Rate stated in the Note. Payments made for taxes on the Property by Beneficiary shall be a first lien on the Property to the extent of the taxes so paid with interest from the date of payment, regardless of the rank and priority of this Deed of Trust.

8. Insurance and Condemnation Proceeds.  Should a loss occur under any policy of insurance required hereunder, or should all or any portion of the Property be taken or damaged by reason of any public improvement or condemnation proceeding, subject to the provisions hereof, Beneficiary shall be entitled to all insurance proceeds, compensation, awards, and other payments or relief therefor (all hereinafter referred to as “proceeds”) and is hereby assigned. Whether or not the security for the loan secured by this Deed of Trust has been impaired, Beneficiary and Grantor shall be entitled to participate in any action or proceedings in connection with such loss, taking or damage.  In the event of such insurance loss or that only a portion of the Property is taken or damaged by reason of any public improvement or condemnation proceeding, and the damage to the Property, and in the judgment of Lender, the Property can be economically restored, Beneficiary, after deducting from said proceeds received all its expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees actually incurred, shall release to Grantor, as restoration progresses, so much of said amount as equals the costs of restoration effected by Grantor, subject to certain conditions, including the requirement that Beneficiary escrow with Lender any anticipated cost of such restoration over the insurance proceeds, including the right of Beneficiary to withhold up to ten percent (10%) of said amount until completion and the provision of a final lien waiver from Grantor’s general contractor.  Any amount required to complete such restoration in excess of such proceeds shall either be paid by Grantor or deposited into escrow with Lender before such proceeds are used.  Grantor agrees to execute such further assignments of any such proceeds and rights of action as Beneficiary or Trustee may require.

9. Property Management. Lender shall have the right to approve and/or reject any property management firm employed by the Grantor to manage the Premises, the Improvements and/or any portion thereof, as well as the right to require a change in such property management firm if, an Event of Default occurs, or a matter occurs which would be an Event of Default, but for the giving of notice and an opportunity to cure. Any agreement with any property manager and any fee payable thereunder must be subordinate to the Security Instrument and terminable by Lender in accordance with the provisions hereof and the other Loan Documents.

10. Maintenance of Property. With respect to the Property, the Grantor shall keep the same in good condition and repair; pay all general and special taxes and assessments and other charges that may be levied or assessed upon or against the same as they become due and payable, including, without limitation, town or county property taxes on mobile homes; furnish to Lender receipts showing payment of any such taxes and assessments; pay all utility charges, assessments and debts for repair or improvements of whatever nature now existing or hereafter arising that may become liens upon or charges against the Property; comply with, or cause to be complied with, all requirements of any governmental authority relating to the Property; and promptly repair, restore, replace or rebuild any part of the Property which may be damaged or destroyed by any casualty whatsoever or which may be affected by any condemnation proceeding or exercise of eminent domain, pursuant and subject to the terms and conditions of paragraph 7 hereof.

11.Waste, Use and Liens. Grantor shall not commit, nor suffer to be committed, any waste of the Property; nor initiate, join in or consent to any change in any private restrictive covenant, zoning ordinance, or other public or private restrictions limiting or defining the uses which may be made of the Property, or any part thereof; nor permit any lien or encumbrance, of any kind or character, to accrue or remain on the Property or any part thereof without the written consent of the Lender.

The Grantor shall continue to comply with the same now and in the future, and any failure to so comply shall constitute an Event of Default (as herein defined). In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting any other rights and/or remedies of Lender, in the event that there shall be filed any lien against the Property by any entity with respect to any of the matters specified in this paragraph, then Grantor agrees to cause such lien to be removed from the Property or provide a bond satisfactory to Lender insuring that Lender shall continue to enjoy first lien status within sixty (60) days from the date that such lien is placed against the Property or within such shorter period of time as the circumstances shall permit (but in all events at least ten (10) days before any sale of the Property to satisfy such lien) in the event that the holder of such lien takes the steps to cause the Premises to be sold pursuant thereto. Should Grantor cause, suffer or permit any violation of any of the foregoing laws, rules and/or regulations, or fail to remove or provide satisfactory bond as described herein in the event of the filing of any such lien, then this Security Instrument, the Note and all other instruments securing the Loan shall at the option of Lender become immediately due and payable.

13. Disclosure of Defaults and Liens. The Grantor shall promptly disclose to Lender any Event of Default (as herein defined) of which the Grantor becomes aware. Furthermore, the Grantor shall immediately disclose to Lender any Disposition and/or Encumbrance (as herein defined) of which it becomes aware and shall immediately disclose to Lender any negotiations of which it becomes aware which are related to a Disposition and/or an Encumbrance.

14. Escrows.

Escrows for taxes on the mobile homes owned by Borrower shall be waived provided (a) no Event of Default has occurred and is then continuing; and (b) verification is provided to Grantor within thirty (30) days thereafter. This waiver is a privilege reserved for the Grantor and is not assumable except in the sole discretion of the Lender. In the event of any of the conditions to the waiver described above are no longer true, then Borrower shall be required to pay one-twelfth (1/12^th) of the mobile home taxes into escrow together with he real estate taxes and insurance premiums.

The Trustee may require the successful bidder at any sale to deposit immediately with the Trustee five percent (5%) of his bid, provided notice of such requirement is contained in the advertisement of the sale. The bid may be rejected if the deposit is not immediately made, and thereupon the next highest bidder may be declared to be the purchaser. The deposit shall be refunded in the event a resale is had; otherwise, the deposit shall be applied to the purchase price.

Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default hereunder, Lender may, at its option, have a receiver appointed to take control of the Property and/or its Rents and Profits and any matter related to its operation, management or disposition, and the Grantor hereby does consent to the appointment of a receiver in such event.

H. MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS.

1. Forbearance. Lender may at any time, without notice to any person, grant to the Grantor any indulgence, forbearance or any extension of time for the payment of any indebtedness secured hereby or allow any change or substitution of or for any of the Property or any other collateral which may be held by Lender without in any manner affecting the liability of the Grantor or any endorsers of the indebtedness hereby secured and also without in any manner affecting or impairing the lien of this Security Instrument.

2. No Waiver. Any failure by Lender to insist upon strict performance of any of the terms and provisions hereof shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any such terms and provisions, and Lender, notwithstanding any such failure, shall have the right thereafter to insist upon the strict performance of any and all the terms and provisions of this Security Instrument. Neither the Grantor nor any other person now or hereafter obligated for the payment in whole or in part of the sums now or hereafter secured hereby shall be relieved of such obligation by reason of (a) the failure of Lender to comply with any request of the Grantor, or of any other person so obligated, to take action to foreclose or otherwise enforce any of the provisions hereof or of any obligations secured hereby, (b) the release, regardless of consideration, of the whole, or any part of, the security held for the indebtedness secured hereby, and/or (c) any agreement or stipulation between any subsequent owner or owners of the Property, or any part thereof, and Lender to extend, from time to time, the time of payment or to modify the terms of the Note or this Security Instrument without first having obtained the consent of the Grantor or such other person.

3. Payments by Lender. Upon the failure of the Grantor to pay any installment due under the Note or other charges above-mentioned as they become due and payable, or to pay any other of the debts or liens above-mentioned at the time above mentioned, or to keep and maintain the Property in good repair and good condition, or to insure the Property, or to deliver the policies of insurance as herein agreed, or to perform any of the covenants and agreements herein, Lender is hereby authorized, at its option, as applicable: to insure the Property, and/or any part hereof, and to pay the costs of such insurance, or to pay such taxes, liens, assessments, cost of repair and/or maintenance and/or other charges herein mentioned, or any part thereof, or to remedy the Grantor’s failure to perform hereunder and to pay the costs associated therewith. The Grantor shall refund on demand all sums so paid, with interest thereon at the Default Interest Rate as defined in the Note. The Security Instrument shall stand as security for all sums so paid, which shall become a part of the indebtedness hereby secured; provided, however, that the retention of a lien hereunder for any sums so paid shall not be a waiver of any subrogation or substitution which Lender might otherwise have had. In the event that (a) the Grantor shall fail to keep the Property insured in the manner and at the times herein provided, (b) any installment of interest or payment of principal is not paid at or within the time required by terms of the Note, (c) the actual demolition or removal of any of the Property is threatened, (d) the Grantor fails to timely do any of the things herein agreed to be done, or (e) there occurs any breach of any of the terms hereof or of the Note, then, and in any of such event, and when same shall constitute an Event of Default hereunder, whether or not Lender has paid any of the taxes, liens or other charges, or procured the insurance, or remedied the Grantor’s failure to perform, all as mentioned above, Lender shall be entitled to exercise any or all remedies provided for or referred to in this Security Instrument.

4. Modification. This Security Instrument may not be changed orally, and no waiver or modification of this Security Instrument, or of any covenant, condition or provision herein contained, shall be valid unless in writing and duly executed by the Grantor, Trustee, and by a duly authorized officer or representative of Lender, and no evidence of any waiver or modification shall be offered or received in evidence in any proceeding, arbitration or litigation arising out of or affecting the Security Instrument, or any rights or obligations hereunder, unless such waiver or modification is in writing, duly executed as aforesaid. The provisions of this section may not be waived except as herein set forth.

5. Severability. If any part, portion, term or provision of this Security Instrument is held to be invalid or illegal by a court of competent jurisdiction, the validity of the remaining portions or provisions hereof shall not be affected, and the rights and obligations of the parties shall be construed and enforced as if such part, portion, term or provision were not contained in this Security Instrument.

6. Late Charges. The Note provides that Lender may charge a late payment equal to five percent (5%) of a late installment for any payment received more than ten (10) days after its due date, except for the final payment due on maturity of the Note, which shall not be subject to a late payment charge unless it is received more than thirty (30) days after its due date, and, therefore, all such late payment charges shall also be secured by this Security Instrument and all other Loan Documents.

7. Change In Taxation Method. In the event of the passage after the date of this Security Instrument of any law of the State of North Carolina, deducting from the value of land, for the purpose of taxation, any lien thereon or changing in any way the laws now in force for the taxation of deeds of trusts or debts secured by mortgage for State or local purposes, or the manner of the collection of such taxes so as to cause the assessment of a tax on Lender or a lien or charge on this Security Instrument, the entire principal balance under said Note, together with all accrued interest thereon, at the option of said Lender, forthwith shall become due and payable; provided, however, that such option shall be ineffective if Grantor is permitted by law to pay the whole of such tax, in addition to all other payments required hereunder, and, if prior to such specified date, Grantor does pay such tax and agrees to pay any such tax when hereafter levied or assessed against the Property, and such agreement shall constitute a modification of this Security Instrument.

8. WAIVER OF TRIAL BY JURY. GRANTOR AND LENDER HEREBY KNOWINGLY, WILLINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY WAIVE THEIR RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY AND NO PARTY NOR ANY ASSIGNEE, SUCCESSOR, HEIR OR LEGAL REPRESENTATIVE OF THE PARTIES (ALL OF WHOM ARE HEREINAFTER COLLECTIVELY REFERRED TO AS THE “PARTIES”) SHALL SEEK A JURY TRIAL IN ANY LAWSUIT, PROCEEDING, COUNTERCLAIM OR ANY OTHER LITIGATION PROCEEDING BASED UPON OR ARISING OUT OF THE LOAN DOCUMENTS OR ANY OTHER INSTRUMENT EVIDENCING, SECURING OR RELATING TO THE INDEBTEDNESS OR OTHER OBLIGATIONS SECURED HEREBY OR ANY RELATED AGREEMENT OR INSTRUMENT, ANY OTHER COLLATERAL FOR THE INDEBTEDNESS SECURED HEREBY OR ANY COURSE OF ACTION, COURSE OF DEALING, STATEMENTS (WHETHER VERBAL OR WRITTEN) OR ACTIONS RELATING TO THE LOAN OR TO THE LOAN DOCUMENTS. THE PARTIES ALSO WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO CONSOLIDATE ANY ACTION IN WHICH A JURY TRIAL HAS BEEN WAIVED WITH ANY OTHER ACTION IN WHICH A JURY TRIAL HAS NOT BEEN WAIVED. THE PROVISIONS OF THIS PARAGRAPH HAVE BEEN FULLY NEGOTIATED BY THE PARTIES. THE WAIVER CONTAINED HEREIN IS IRREVOCABLE, CONSTITUTES A KNOWING AND VOLUNTARY WAIVER, AND SHALL BE SUBJECT TO NO EXCEPTIONS. LENDER HAS IN NO WAY AGREED WITH OR REPRESENTED TO GRANTOR OR ANY OTHER PARTY THAT THE PROVISIONS OF THIS PARAGRAPH WILL NOT BE FULLY ENFORCED IN ALL INSTANCES.
