(ii) all other amounts now or hereafter payable by the Loan Parties and all other obligations or liabilities now existing or hereafter arising or incurred (including, without limitation, any amounts which accrue after the commencement of any case, proceeding or other action relating to the bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization of any Loan Party, whether or not allowed or allowable as a claim in any such proceeding) on the part of the Loan Parties pursuant to the Obligations;

(b) the performance of, and compliance with, all of the covenants, duties, obligations and conditions of the Grantor contained in this Deed of Trust.

The above-described indebtedness, liabilities, obligations, covenants, duties and conditions are hereinafter referred to collectively as the “Secured Obligations.”

The Grantor does also hereby irrevocably assign and convey unto the Collateral Agent for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, and hereby grants to the Collateral Agent for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties a security interest in, all leases now or hereafter existing on any part of the Property and any guaranties thereof and all rents from the Property to secure additionally the Secured Obligations. The Grantor does hereby irrevocably appoint the Collateral Agent as its attorney-in-fact to do all things which the Grantor might otherwise do with respect to the leasing of the Property, which appointment shall be effective upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, including, without limitation, (i) collecting such rents with or without suit and applying the same, less expenses of collection, to any of the Secured Obligations in such manner as may be determined by the Collateral Agent, or at the option of the Collateral Agent,

 

- 4 -


holding the same as security for the payment of all of the Secured Obligations, (ii) leasing, in the name of the Grantor, the whole or any part of the Property which may become vacant, and (iii) employing agents therefor and paying such agents reasonable compensation for their services; provided, however, that until there be an Event of Default (as hereinafter defined) which Event of Default is continuing, the Grantor may continue to collect and enjoy such rents in the ordinary course of business as the rents become due and payable without accountability to the Collateral Agent. The powers and rights granted in this paragraph shall be in addition to the other remedies herein provided for upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and may be exercised independently of or concurrently with any of such remedies. Nothing in the foregoing shall be construed to impose any obligation upon the Collateral Agent to exercise any power or right granted in this paragraph or to assume any liability under any lease of any part of the Property, and no liability shall attach to the Collateral Agent for failure or inability to collect any rents under any such lease. The Grantor covenants and warrants that (i) it will comply with all material terms and conditions of all leases now existing or that may hereafter come into existence in respect of the Property or of any part thereof; (ii) all leases with respect to the Property now or hereafter in effect are and shall be valid and subsisting leases; (iii) it has not sold, assigned, transferred, mortgaged or pledged, and will not sell, assign, transfer, mortgage or pledge, without the Collateral Agent’s prior written consent, the rents, issues or profits from the Property and leases thereof to any person other than the Collateral Agent; (iv) no rents, issues or profits derived from the Property and leases, and becoming due subsequent to the date hereof, have been collected or anticipated in advance of their due date by more than thirty (30) days; (v) it will not reduce the rental due under any lease of all or any part of the Property without the Collateral Agent’s prior written consent; and (vi) upon request of the Collateral Agent, it will serve such written notice or notices as the Collateral Agent may from time to time require upon the tenant(s) under such leases or occupant(s) of the Property or any part thereof, it will execute and deliver to the Collateral Agent such other instruments or documents reasonably requested by the Collateral Agent for the purpose of securing or exercising its rights herein and it will provide to the Collateral Agent true copies or originals of such leases and all amendments, supplements, renewals or correspondence related thereto. Whenever in this paragraph there is a reference to “leases,” such reference shall also apply to subleases and any other forms of agreement for the use of the Property or any part thereof.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and except as specifically provided herein to the contrary, the Grantor shall remain in quiet use, possession and management of the Property, and in the enjoyment of the income, revenue and profits therefrom.

So long as any part of the Secured Obligations remains outstanding, the Grantor covenants and agrees as follows:

1. TAXES AND ASSESSMENTS. The Grantor will pay, promptly when due, all taxes, assessments and public charges upon the Property, except for those being contested in good faith, by appropriate proceedings, and for which adequate reserves have been established (in accordance with GAAP) subject to Section 1.02 of the Credit Agreement, and, promptly upon request by the Collateral Agent, will forward to the Collateral Agent official receipts evidencing such payments; or in the alternative and at the option of the Collateral Agent, exercisable at any time upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, will deposit with the Collateral Agent, at such time or times as the Collateral Agent directs, such amounts as are

 

- 5 -


necessary, in the sole and absolute discretion of the Collateral Agent, to enable the Collateral Agent to make timely payment of such taxes, assessments and charges. Such amounts so deposited shall bear no interest and may be commingled with other funds held by the Collateral Agent. If, at any time, the Collateral Agent determines in its sole and absolute discretion that a deficiency exists between the amounts deposited and the actual amount required to be paid with respect to taxes, assessments and charges, then the Grantor shall immediately pay such deficiency upon notification thereof by the Collateral Agent. The Grantor does hereby grant to the Collateral Agent a security interest in the funds it receives under this paragraph 1 to secure the payment of the Secured Obligations.

2. INSURANCE; DAMAGE TO PROPERTY.

a. The Grantor will continuously insure the Property with financially sound and reputable insurance companies against fire (with extended coverage) in the full insurable value of the Property, and against such other casualties and in such amounts as required by the Collateral Agent pursuant to the Credit Agreement. The insurance policy (or policies) will have attached thereto a standard mortgagee clause, without contribution, in favor of the Collateral Agent, as its interest may appear, and will otherwise be in form reasonably acceptable to the Collateral Agent, and the Grantor will cause such policy (or policies) to provide that it (they) may not be canceled without thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to the Collateral Agent. The Grantor will deliver to the Collateral Agent certificates evidencing that the Collateral Agent has been named as loss payee and additional insured on all such insurance, and certificates of insurance at least fifteen (15) days prior to the renewal of such insurance policy (or policies). The Collateral Agent shall have the right, exercisable at any time upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to require the Grantor to deposit with the Collateral Agent, at such time or times as the Collateral Agent directs, such amounts as are necessary, in the sole and absolute discretion of the Collateral Agent, to enable the Collateral Agent to make timely payment of the premiums on such policy or policies. Such amounts so deposited shall bear no interest and may be commingled with other funds held by the Collateral Agent. If, at any time, the Collateral Agent determines in its sole and absolute discretion that a deficiency exists between the amounts deposited and the actual amount required to be paid with respect to such premiums, then the Grantor shall immediately pay such deficiency upon notification thereof by the Collateral Agent. The Grantor does hereby grant to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Collateral Agent a security interest in the funds it receives under this paragraph 2 to secure the payment of the Secured Obligations. As to such insurance, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Collateral Agent may, after ten (10) days’ written notice mailed to the Grantor at its last known address, reasonably change any or all of the coverages, terms, amounts or insurers, cause any policy to name the Collateral Agent as insured as its interest may appear, surrender existing policies for cancellation, obtain any cancellation, obtain any additional insurance it reasonably so desires, pay any required premiums and receive premium refunds, and in any such event any premium adjustments shall be charged against or credited to the Secured Obligations. In the event any claim for loss covered by such insurance is not settled within one hundred twenty (120) days after the occurrence of such loss, the Collateral Agent may negotiate with any insurance companies involved and make a reasonable settlement of such claim, and the Collateral Agent and such insurance companies, upon such settlement being made, shall not be liable in any manner to the Grantor with respect to such claim and settlement.

 

- 6 -


b. The Grantor shall promptly notify the Collateral Agent of any damage to or destruction of the Property or any part thereof having an aggregate fair market value in excess of $250,000. In case of any damage to or destruction of the Property or any part thereof, the Grantor, whether or not the insurance proceeds, if any, received on account of such damage or destruction shall be sufficient for the purpose, at the Grantor’s expense, will promptly commence and complete the restoration, replacement or rebuilding of the Property as nearly as possible to its value, condition and character immediately prior to such damage or destruction. Insurance proceeds received by the Collateral Agent in the aggregate amount of less than $1,000,000 in any fiscal year of the Grantor under any policy or policies covering the Property or any part thereof shall be remitted to the Grantor, provided that (i) no Default (as defined in the Credit Agreement) or Event of Default then exists and (ii) the Grantor restores that portion of the Property so damaged or destroyed within 360 days of the occurrence of such damage or destruction. Insurance proceeds received by the Collateral Agent in the aggregate amount of $1,000,000 or more in any fiscal year of the Grantor under any policy or policies of insurance covering the Property or any part thereof shall first be applied toward the payment of the amount owing on the Secured Obligations in such order of application as the Collateral Agent may elect whether or not the same may then be due or be otherwise adequately secured; provided, however, that such proceeds shall be made available for the restoration of the portion of the Property damaged or destroyed if written application for such use is made within thirty (30) calendar days of receipt of such proceeds and the following conditions are satisfied: (i) the Grantor has in effect business interruption insurance in the amounts required by the Credit Agreement; (ii) no Default or Event of Default exists (and if an Event of Default shall occur during restoration the Collateral Agent may, at its election, apply any insurance proceeds then remaining in its hands to the reduction of the Secured Obligations); (iii) the Grantor shall have submitted to the Collateral Agent plans and specifications for the restoration which shall be reasonably satisfactory to it; (iv) the Grantor shall submit to the Collateral Agent fixed price contracts with good and responsible contractors and materialmen covering all work and materials necessary to complete restoration and providing for a total completion price not in excess of the amount of insurance proceeds available for restoration, or, if a deficiency shall exist, the Grantor shall have deposited the amount of such deficiency with the Collateral Agent; and (v) the Grantor shall have provided to the Collateral Agent a written release from each insurer under such policies of insurance to the effect that all such proceeds are paid without any reservation of rights and that such insurer has no cause of action, right of set-off or other claim against the Grantor or the insured under such policies. Any insurance proceeds to be released pursuant to the foregoing provisions may at the option of the Collateral Agent be disbursed from time to time as restoration progresses to pay for restoration work completed and in place and such disbursements may at the Collateral Agent’s option be made directly to the Grantor or to or through any contractor or materialman to whom payment is due or to or through a construction escrow to be maintained by a title insurer acceptable to the Collateral Agent. The Collateral Agent may impose such further conditions upon the release of insurance proceeds (including the receipt of title insurance) as are customarily imposed by prudent construction lenders to insure the completion of the restoration work free and clear of all liens or claims for liens. All title insurance charges and other costs and expenses paid to or for the account of the Grantor in connection with the release of such insurance proceeds shall constitute so much additional indebtedness hereby secured to be payable upon demand with interest at the rate applicable to Advances under the Credit Agreement at the time such costs or expenses are incurred. The Collateral Agent may deduct any such costs and expenses from insurance proceeds at any time standing in its hands. If the

 

- 7 -


Grantor fails to request that insurance proceeds be applied to the restoration of the Property or if the Grantor makes such a request but fails to complete restoration within twelve (12) months of the occurrence of the damage or destruction of the Property giving rise to payment of such insurance proceeds, the Collateral Agent shall have the right, but not the duty, to release the proceeds thereof for use in restoring the Property or any part thereof for or on behalf of the Grantor in lieu of applying said proceeds to the Secured Obligations and for such purpose may do all acts necessary to complete such restoration, including advancing additional funds, and any additional funds so advanced shall constitute part of the indebtedness hereby secured and shall be payable on demand with interest at the Default Rate. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if, despite the exercise of reasonable diligence, the Grantor is unable to complete the restoration of the Property within twelve (12) months of the occurrence of the damage or destruction of the Property giving rise to the payment of insurance proceeds, the Grantor shall have not more than three (3) additional months (the “Extended Restoration Period”) to complete such restoration, provided that (i) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the commencement of or at any time during the Extended Restoration Period and (ii) the Collateral Agent remains satisfied during the Extended Restoration Period that the Grantor is pursuing such completion with reasonable diligence at all times.

3. PRESERVATION AND MAINTENANCE OF PROPERTY. Except as otherwise may be permitted in the Credit Agreement and except as otherwise set forth in paragraph 2 hereof, the Grantor will keep the Property (including any private roads on or over which the Grantor has any easement or right appurtenant to the Property) in good order and repair, including the making of such replacements as may be necessary for that purpose.

4. WASTE. The Grantor will not permit, suffer or commit any material waste, impairment or deterioration of, nor allow any material nuisance to exist upon, the Property or any part thereof.

5. ASSURANCES OF TITLE. The Grantor will execute, or cause to be executed, such further assurances of title to the Property, and will take, and cause to be taken, such steps, including legal proceedings, as may at any time be reasonably necessary to perfect the title to the Property in the Trustee.

6. CONTRACTS. The Grantor will keep and maintain at its principal place of business copies of all written contracts, leases and other instruments which affect the Property. Such contracts, leases and other instruments shall be subject to examination and inspection by the Collateral Agent at any reasonable time and from time to time, and, if no Event of Default has occurred, upon reasonable prior notice.

7. LIENS AND ENCUMBRANCES. The Grantor will not, without the prior written consent of the Collateral Agent, permit or suffer to exist any lien or encumbrance on the Property, or interest therein (legal or equitable), or any part thereof, either inferior or superior in right to the lien of this Deed of Trust, other than Permitted Exceptions.

8. WAIVER OF EXEMPTIONS. The Grantor will not set up or claim the benefit of any homestead or other exemption of law, or any other law or rule of law intended for its advantage or protection as an obligor under the Notes, the Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or

 

- 8 -


under this Deed of Trust, or providing for its release or discharge from any liability under the Notes, the Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents or this Deed of Trust on account of any facts or circumstances other than full and complete payment of all amounts due under the Notes, the Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents and this Deed of Trust, all of such exemptions and benefits being hereby expressly waived.

9. EMINENT DOMAIN. The Grantor covenants and agrees to give prompt written notice to the Collateral Agent by certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, of any taking or condemnation, or any threatened or pending proceedings for the taking or condemnation, of any part of the Property under any power of eminent domain; and in the event that title to, or possession of, the Property or any portion thereof, is taken or condemned under any power of eminent domain, then the Grantor will (and hereby does) assign to the Collateral Agent, and will forthwith upon receipt pay to the Collateral Agent, the proceeds and consideration resulting from taking or condemnation, not to exceed the unpaid balance of the Secured Obligations, such proceeds so paid to be applied to the Secured Obligations.

10. TRANSFER OF PROPERTY. The Grantor will not, without the prior written consent of the Collateral Agent, lease, bargain, sell, transfer, assign or convey the Property, or any portion thereof, or any legal or equitable interest therein.

NOTICE — THE DEBT SECURED HEREBY IS SUBJECT TO CALL IN FULL OR THE TERMS THEREOF BEING MODIFIED IN THE EVENT OF SALE OR CONVEYANCE OF THE PROPERTY CONVEYED.

11. USE OF PROPERTY. The Grantor will not, without the prior written consent of the Collateral Agent, (a) change, or permit any material changes in, the general use for which all or any part of the Property was intended at the time of the execution of this Deed of Trust, or (b) initiate or acquiesce in a change in the zoning classification of the Property.

12. ENTRY; PROTECTION OF THE NOTEHOLDER’S SECURITY. The Grantor does hereby grant to the Collateral Agent, the Trustee and their designees the right to enter, examine and inspect the Property, and to do such other things as are permitted under this Deed of Trust, at any reasonable time and from time to time, and if no Event of Default has occurred, upon reasonable prior notice. In the event (a) the Grantor fails to perform any of its covenants or agreements herein contained, or (b) any action or proceeding is commenced or threatened which is likely to materially adversely affect the Property or title thereto or the interest of the Trustee or the Collateral Agent therein, including, without limitation, eminent domain, insolvency, arrangements or proceedings involving a bankrupt or decedent, then, in any of such events, the Collateral Agent may, at its option, make such appearances, disburse such amount and take such action as the Collateral Agent deems necessary, in its reasonable discretion, to protect its interest, including, without limitation, (i) the employment of attorneys and disbursement of reasonable attorneys’ fees, (ii) the entry upon the Property to make repairs, (iii) the procurement of insurance as provided in paragraph 2 hereof, and (iv) if the Property is subject to another deed of trust or lien, whether inferior or superior hereto, the curing of any default in the performance of any of the terms and provisions thereof, or if the indebtedness thereby secured is accelerated, the purchase or payment in full of such indebtedness, all on such terms as the Collateral Agent shall, in its reasonable discretion, deem necessary or advisable. Any amounts disbursed by the Collateral Agent pursuant to the

 

- 9 -


provisions of this paragraph 12 shall be added to, and deemed a part of, the Secured Obligations, shall be secured in the same manner as the Notes and the other Obligations are secured, shall bear interest from the date of the disbursement thereof at a fluctuating rate of interest equal to the Default Rate, and shall, together with the interest thereon, be repayable by the Grantor on demand.

13. ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATE. The Grantor will, within twenty (20) days of being requested in writing by the Collateral Agent so to do, furnish a written statement to the Collateral Agent, duly acknowledged, setting forth in detail the Secured Obligations and any right of setoff, counterclaim or other defense which exists against the payment or performance thereof.

14. ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION. The Grantor covenants and agrees as follows:

a. The Grantor warrants and represents that it has investigated or caused to be investigated the previous ownership and uses of the Property, in a manner consistent with good commercial practices, to determine whether activities have been conducted which might involve the use, manufacturing, storage or disposal of Hazardous Materials, and except as otherwise disclosed to the Collateral Agent this investigation has revealed no fact which would indicate that the Property has been involved in the use, manufacturing, storage or disposal of Hazardous Materials other than in accordance with all applicable Environmental Laws. This investigation has taken into account, among other factors, (i) the relationship of the purchase price to the value of the Property if uncontaminated when originally purchased by the Grantor, (ii) commonly known or reasonably ascertainable information about the Property, and (iii) the obviousness of the presence or likely presence of contamination at the Property.

b. The Grantor warrants and represents to the best of its knowledge after due investigation that it has disclosed to the Collateral Agent all pending or threatened litigation that has or could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect and all orders, rulings, notices, permits or investigations regarding Hazardous Materials on the Property that have or could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

c. The Grantor and any other parties, including, but not limited to, tenants, licensees and occupants, will not be involved in any activity on the Property, which activity is likely to involve or lead to (i) the use, manufacture, storage or disposal of Hazardous Materials except in accordance with all applicable Environmental Laws and all other laws, ordinances and regulations, or (ii) the imposition of liability on the Grantor or any other subsequent or former owner of the Property or the creation of a lien on the Property under any Environmental Laws.

d. The Grantor will comply in all material respects with the requirements of all Environmental Laws and shall promptly notify the Collateral Agent in the event of the discovery of Hazardous Materials at the Property which are not in compliance with applicable Environmental Laws. Further, the Grantor will promptly forward to the Collateral Agent copies of all orders, notices, permits, applications and other communications and reports in connection with any discharge, spillage, use or discovery of Hazardous Materials on the Property which constitutes or is alleged to constitute a violation of any Environmental Law that has or could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Grantor will not permit any other party, including, but not limited to, tenants, licensees and occupants to conduct any such discharge, spillage or use of any Hazardous Materials except in compliance with all applicable Environmental Laws and shall take immediate action to stop any such activity and to correct any violations resulting therefrom.

 

- 10 -


e. The Grantor agrees that if at any time the Collateral Agent has reasonable cause to believe there are Hazardous Materials upon the Property that are being used, stored, manufactured or disposed of other than in accordance with all applicable Environmental Laws, the Collateral Agent may with prior notice to Grantor obtain, at Grantor’s cost, an environmental site assessment or environmental audit report of reasonable scope under the circumstances from a firm acceptable to the Collateral Agent, to assess with a reasonable degree of certainty (i) the presence of any such Hazardous Materials and (ii) the cost in connection with the abatement, cleanup or removal of such.

f. The Grantor agrees that in the event of the presence of any Hazardous Materials upon the Property which is not in compliance with all applicable Environmental Laws, whether or not the same originates or emanates from the Property, or if Grantor shall fail to comply with all material requirements of all applicable Environmental Laws, the Collateral Agent may at its election, but without the obligation to do so, (i) give such notices as are required by applicable Environmental Laws, (ii) cause such work to be performed at the Property or (iii) take any and all other actions as the Collateral Agent shall deem necessary or advisable in order to abate, remove and clean up the Hazardous Materials or otherwise cure the Grantor’s noncompliance.

g. The Grantor shall be liable for all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by or asserted against the Collateral Agent arising under this paragraph even if said costs and expenses exceed the amount of the loans secured by this Deed of Trust.

h. Any amounts disbursed by the Collateral Agent pursuant to the provisions of this paragraph 14 shall be added to, and deemed a part of, the Secured Obligations, shall be secured in the same manner as the Notes and the other Obligations are secured, shall bear interest from the date of the disbursement thereof at a fluctuating rate of interest equal to the Default Rate, and shall, together with the interest thereon, be repayable by the Grantor on demand.

15. COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS. Except as otherwise may be permitted in the Credit Agreement, the Grantor shall comply with all applicable laws, ordinances, rules, regulations and judicial or administrative orders (collectively, “Laws”) now in force or hereafter enacted or promulgated relating to the construction, maintenance, operation and use of the Property, or any part thereof, including, but not limited to, Environmental Laws.
