(i) The Beneficiary shall be entitled to recover judgment as aforesaid either before, after or during the pendency of any proceedings for the enforcement of the provisions hereof, and the right of the Beneficiary to recover such judgment shall not be affected by any entry or sale hereunder, or by the exercise of any other right, power or remedy for the enforcement of the provisions hereof, or the foreclosure of, or absolute conveyance pursuant to, this Deed of Trust. In case of proceedings against the Trustor in insolvency or bankruptcy or any proceedings for its reorganization or involving the liquidation of its assets, the Beneficiary shall be entitled to prove the whole amount of principal and interest and other payments, charges and costs due in respect of the Secured Obligations to the full amount thereof without deducting therefrom any proceeds obtained from the sale of the whole or any part of the Mortgaged Property;provided,however, that in no case shall the Beneficiary receive a greater amount than the aggregate of such principal, interest and such other payments, charges and costs (with interest at the Default Rate) from the proceeds of the sale of the Mortgaged Property and the distribution from the estate of the Trustor.
(ii) Any recovery of any judgment by the Beneficiary and any levy of any execution under any judgment upon the Mortgaged Property shall not affect in any manner or to any extent the lien and security interests created and evidenced hereby upon the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof, or any conveyances, powers, rights and remedies of the Beneficiary hereunder, but such conveyances, powers, rights and remedies shall continue unimpaired as before.
(iii) Any monies collected by the Beneficiary under thisSection 9.4 shall be applied in accordance with the provisions ofSection 9.3(iv).
SECTION 9.5.Legal Proceedings After an Event of Default.

(ii) If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Beneficiary may, at its election and by or through the Mortgaged Property Trustee, any substitute trustee, or any nominee, assignee or otherwise, make application to a court of competent jurisdiction for, and obtain from such court as a matter of strict right and without notice to Trustor or regard to the adequacy of the Mortgaged Property for the repayment of the Secured Obligations, the appointment of a receiver of the Mortgaged Property, and Trustor irrevocably consents to such appointment. Any such receiver shall have all the usual powers and duties of receivers in similar cases, including the full power to rent, maintain and otherwise operate the Mortgaged Property upon such terms as may be approved by the court, and shall apply such Rents in accordance with the provisions ofSection 9.3(iv).
(iii) The Trustor shall not (A) at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take any benefit or advantage of any stay or extension or moratorium law, any exemption from execution or sale of the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof, wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, which may affect the covenants and terms of performance hereof, (B) claim, take or insist on any benefit or advantage of any law now or hereafter in force providing for the valuation or appraisal of the Mortgaged Property, or any part thereof, prior to any sale or sales of the Mortgaged Property which may be made pursuant to this Deed of Trust, or pursuant to any decree, judgment or order of any court of competent jurisdiction or (C) after any such sale or sales, claim or exercise any right under any statute heretofore or hereafter enacted to redeem the property so sold or any part thereof. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Trustor hereby expressly (W) waives all benefit or advantage of any such law or laws, including, without limitation, any statute of limitations applicable to this Deed of Trust, (X) waives any and all rights to trial by jury in any action or proceeding related to the enforcement hereof, (Y) waives any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any action, suit or proceeding brought in connection with this Deed of Trust and further waives and agrees not to plead that any such action, suit or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum and (Z) covenants not to hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power granted or delegated to the Beneficiary by this Deed of Trust but to suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law or laws had been made or enacted. The Beneficiary shall not be liable for any incorrect or improper payment made pursuant to thisArticle IX in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct.
SECTION 9.6.Remedies Not Exclusive. No remedy conferred upon or reserved to the Beneficiary by this Deed of Trust is intended to be exclusive of any other remedy or remedies, and each and every such remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other remedy given under this Deed of Trust or now or hereafter existing at law or in
-26-
equity. Any delay or omission of the Beneficiary to exercise any right or power accruing on any Event of Default shall not impair any such right or power and shall not be construed to be a waiver of or acquiescence in any such Event of Default. Every power and remedy given by this Deed of Trust may be exercised from time to time concurrently or independently, when and as often as may be deemed expedient by the Beneficiary in such order and manner as the Beneficiary, in its sole discretion, may elect. If the Beneficiary accepts any monies required to be paid by the Trustor under this Deed of Trust after the same become due, such acceptance shall not constitute a waiver of the right either to require prompt payment, when due, of all other sums secured by this Deed of Trust or to declare an Event of Default with regard to subsequent defaults. If the Beneficiary accepts any monies required to be paid by the Trustor under this Deed of Trust in an amount less than the sum then due, such acceptance shall be deemed an acceptance on account only and on the condition that it shall not constitute a waiver of the obligation of the Trustor to pay the entire sum then due, and the Trustor’s failure to pay the entire sum then due shall be and continue to be a default hereunder notwithstanding acceptance of such amount on account.
SECTION 9.7.Costs of Enforcement. All sums advanced and expenses incurred at any time by Beneficiary or any Secured Party under thisArticle IX shall bear interest at the Default Rate from the date that such sum was advanced or expense incurred to and including the date of reimbursement, and such shall be Secured Obligations hereunder. Trustor shall pay all expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) of or incidental to the perfection and enforcement of this Deed of Trust and the other Security Documents, or the enforcement, compromise or settlement of the Secured Obligations or any claim under this Deed of Trust and the other Security Documents, or for defending or asserting the rights and claims of Beneficiary or the Secured Parties in respect thereof, by litigation or otherwise.
SECTION 9.8.Rescission of Notice of Default. Beneficiary (on behalf of the Secured Parties) may from time to time rescind any notice of default or notice of sale before any Mortgaged Property Trustee’s sale as provided above, by executing and delivering to Mortgaged Property Trustee a written notice of such rescission, which such notice, when recorded, shall also constitute a cancellation of any prior declaration of default and demand for sale. The exercise by Beneficiary of such right of rescission shall not constitute a waiver of any breach or default then existing or subsequently occurring, or impair the right of Beneficiary to execute and deliver to Mortgaged Property Trustee, as above provided, other declarations or notices of default to satisfy the obligations of this Deed of Trust or the obligations secured hereby, nor otherwise affect any provision, covenant or condition of any Notes Document or any of the rights, obligations or remedies of Mortgaged Property Trustee, Beneficiary or other Secured Parties hereunder or thereunder.
SECTION 9.9.Effect of Judgment. The obtaining of any judgment by Beneficiary and any levy of any execution under any judgment upon the Mortgaged Property shall not affect in any manner or to any extent the lien of this Deed of Trust upon the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof, or any liens, powers, rights and remedies of Beneficiary hereunder, but such liens, powers, rights and remedies shall continue unimpaired as before until the judgment or levy is satisfied.

SECTION 13.3.Environmental Indemnity.
-31-
(i) All risk of loss associated with non-compliance with Environmental Laws at the Mortgaged Property, or with the presence of any Hazardous Material at, upon, within, contiguous to or otherwise affecting the Mortgaged Property or any portion thereof, shall be solely with Trustor. Accordingly, Trustor shall bear all risks and costs associated with any loss (including any loss in value attributable to Hazardous Materials), damage or liability from such non-compliance or presence of any Hazardous Material, including all costs of removal of such Hazardous Material or other related remediation required by Environmental Laws. Trustor shall indemnify, defend and hold Collateral Agent harmless from and against all loss, liabilities, damages, claims, costs and expenses (including reasonable costs of defense) (hereinafter collectively referred to as “Liabilities”), arising out of or associated, in any way, with:
(A) | the non-compliance of the Mortgaged Property with Environmental Laws; or | ||
(B) | the existence or presence of Hazardous Materials in concentrations in excess of applicable standards under Environmental Laws in, on, or about the Mortgaged Property or any portion thereof; |
whether based in contract, tort, implied or express warranty, strict liability, criminal or civil statute or common law, including those Liabilities arising from the joint, concurrent or comparative negligence of Collateral Agent;however, Trustor shall not be liable under such indemnification to the extent such Liabilities result directly from Collateral Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.
Trustor’s obligations under this Section shall arise upon the discovery of the presence of any Hazardous Material, whether or not any governmental authority has taken or threatened any action in connection with the presence of any Hazardous Materials and whether or not the existence of any such Hazardous Material or potential liability on account thereof is disclosed in the Site Assessment and shall continue notwithstanding the repayment of the Notes or any transfer or sale of any right, title and interest in the Mortgaged Property or any portion thereof (by foreclosure, deed in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise), but shall not apply to any actions taken or events occurring after such transfer or sale or after Beneficiary or a receiver in any bankruptcy proceeding takes possession of the Mortgaged Property.

-32-
warranties, and other liabilities of the Trustor under this Deed of Trust or any or all of the other Notes Documents. Furthermore, Trustor acknowledges and agrees that the Secured Obligations are secured by the Mortgaged Property and various other collateral at the time of execution of this Deed of Trust. Trustor specifically acknowledges and agrees that the Mortgaged Property, in and of itself, if foreclosed or realized upon would not be sufficient to satisfy the outstanding amount of the Secured Obligations. Accordingly, Trustor acknowledges that it is in Beneficiary’s contemplation that the other collateral pledged to secure the Secured Obligations may be pursued by Beneficiary in separate proceedings in the various states and counties where such collateral may be located and additionally that Trustor will remain liable for any deficiency judgments in addition to any amounts Beneficiary and/or the other Secured Parties may realize on sales of other property or any other collateral given as security for the Secured Obligations. Specifically, and without limitation of the foregoing, it is agreed that it is the intent of the parties hereto that in the event of a foreclosure of this Deed of Trust, that the Secured Obligations shall not be deemed merged into any judgment of foreclosure, but shall rather remain outstanding to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.
SECTION 13.6.Concerning Beneficiary.
(i) The Beneficiary has been appointed as Collateral Agent pursuant to the Indenture.
(ii) The Beneficiary shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the Mortgaged Property in its possession if such Mortgaged Property is accorded treatment substantially equivalent to that which the Beneficiary, in its individual capacity, accords its own property consisting of similar instruments or interests, it being understood that neither the Beneficiary nor any of the Secured Parties shall have responsibility for taking any necessary steps to preserve rights against any person with respect to any Mortgaged Property.
(iii) With respect to any of its rights and obligations as a Secured Party, the Beneficiary shall have and may exercise the same rights and powers hereunder. The term “Secured Parties,” “Secured Party” or any similar terms shall, unless the context clearly otherwise indicates, include the Beneficiary in its capacity as Collateral Agent and as a Secured Party. The Beneficiary may accept deposits from, lend money to, and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust or other business with the Trustor or any Affiliate of the Trustor to the same extent as if the Beneficiary were not acting as Trustee and Collateral Agent.
(iv) If any portion of the Mortgaged Property also constitutes collateral granted to the Beneficiary under any other deed of trust, mortgage, security agreement, pledge or instrument of any type, in the event of any conflict between the provisions hereof and the provisions of such other deed of trust, mortgage, security agreement, pledge or instrument of any type in respect of such collateral, (x) if the conflict regards personal property covered by the Security Agreement, the provisions of the Security Agreement shall control, and (y) in all other cases the Beneficiary, in its sole discretion, shall select which provision or provisions shall control.

SECTION 13.7.Beneficiary May Perform; Beneficiary Appointed Attorney-in-Fact. If the Trustor shall fail to perform any covenants contained in this Deed of Trust (including, without limitation, the Trustor’s covenants to (i) pay the premiums in respect of all required insurance policies hereunder, (ii) pay Charges, (iii) make repairs, (iv) discharge Liens or (v) pay or perform any obligations of the Trustor with respect to any Mortgaged Property), the Beneficiary may (but shall not be obligated to) (x) following the occurrence of an Event of Default, or (y) after delivery of notice to Trustor and (1) passage of any applicable grace periods hereunder or under the Indenture, or (2) the passage of such shorter period of time as reasonably necessary to prevent the Premises from being uninsured or reasonably necessary to prevent an imminent foreclosure, do the same or cause it to be done or remedy any such breach, and may expend funds for such purpose, which shall bear interest at the Default Rate and be secured by this Deed of Trust; provided, however, that the Beneficiary shall in no event be bound to inquire into the validity of any tax, lien, imposition or other obligation which the Trustor fails to pay or perform as and when required hereby and which the Trustor does not contest in accordance with the provisions ofArticle VII hereof. Any and all amounts so expended by the Beneficiary shall be paid by the Trustor in accordance with the provisions hereof. Neither the provisions of thisSection 13.7 nor any action taken by the Beneficiary pursuant to the provisions of thisSection 13.7 shall prevent any such failure to observe any covenant contained in this Deed of Trust nor any breach of representation or warranty from constituting an Event of Default. The Trustor hereby appoints the Beneficiary its attorney-in-fact, with full authority in the place and stead of the Trustor and in the name of the Trustor, or otherwise, from time to time in the Beneficiary’s discretion to take any action and to execute any instrument consistent with the terms hereof and the other Notes Documents which the Beneficiary may deem reasonably necessary to accomplish the purposes hereof if Beneficiary reasonably believes the security afforded by this Deed of Trust may be impaired and if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. The foregoing grant of authority is a power of attorney coupled with an interest and such appointment shall be irrevocable for the term hereof. The Trustor hereby ratifies all that such attorney shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof.
SECTION 13.8.Continuing Security Interest; Assignment.

No other persons (including, without limitation, any other creditor of the Co-Issuers or any of their Subsidiaries) shall have any interest herein or any right or benefit with respect hereto. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing clause (ii), except to the extent, if any, prohibited under the Indenture, any Secured Party may assign or otherwise transfer any indebtedness held by it secured by this Deed of Trust to any other person, and such other person shall thereupon become vested with all the benefits in respect thereof granted to such Secured Party, herein or otherwise, subject, however, to the provisions of the Indenture.
SECTION 13.9.Termination; Release. When all the Secured Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full or all of the Mortgaged Property shall otherwise be released from the lien of this Deed of Trust pursuant to the Indenture, the lien of this Deed of Trust shall
-34-
terminate. Upon termination of the lien hereof or any release of the Mortgaged Property or any portion thereof (whether arising from a sale of the Mortgaged Property or otherwise), the Beneficiary shall, upon the request and at the sole cost and expense of the Trustor, forthwith deliver to Mortgaged Property Trustee a written request for reconveyance, and will surrender to Mortgaged Property Trustee for cancellation this Deed of Trust; however, Beneficiary will have no obligation to deliver the written request until Beneficiary and the other Secured Parties have been paid by Trustor, in immediately available funds, all escrow, closing, and recording costs, the costs of preparing and issuing the reconveyance, and any trustee’s or reconveyance fees. Upon Mortgaged Property Trustee’s receipt of the written request by Beneficiary and any other required documents, Mortgaged Property Trustee will reconvey, without warranty, the Mortgaged Property or that portion then held. To the extent permitted by law, the reconveyance may describe the grantee as the Person or Persons legally entitled and the recitals of any matters or facts in any reconveyance will be conclusive proof of the truthfulness of them. Neither Beneficiary nor Mortgaged Property Trustee will have any duty to determine the rights of Persons claiming to be rightful grantees of any reconveyance and the terms of any grant, reconveyance or assignment shall be without recourse to Beneficiary and without any representation or warranty (express, implied or otherwise) on behalf of Beneficiary, and Beneficiary shall not enter into or issue any other estoppels, agreements or other instruments in connection therewith.

SECTION 13.13.GOVERNING LAW; SERVICE OF PROCESS; WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. THIS DEED OF TRUST SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND SHALL BE CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE IN WHICH THE PREMISES ARE LOCATED, WITHOUT REGARD TO PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAWS, EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT THAT THE VALIDITY OR PERFECTION OF THE SECURITY INTEREST HEREUNDER, OR REMEDIES HEREUNDER, IN RESPECT OF ANY PARTICULAR ITEM OR TYPE OF MORTGAGED PROPERTY ARE GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF A JURISDICTION OTHER THAN SUCH STATE. TRUSTOR AGREES THAT SERVICE OF PROCESS IN ANY PROCEEDING MAY BE EFFECTED BY MAILING A COPY THEREOF BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL (OR ANY SUBSTANTIALLY SIMILAR FORM OF MAIL), POSTAGE PREPAID, TO THE TRUSTOR AT ITS ADDRESS SET FORTH INSECTION 13.12 HEREOF OR AT SUCH OTHER ADDRESS OF WHICH THE BENEFICIARY SHALL HAVE BEEN NOTIFIED PURSUANT THERETO. IF ANY AGENT APPOINTED BY
-36-
TRUSTOR REFUSES TO ACCEPT SERVICE, TRUSTOR HEREBY AGREES THAT SERVICE UPON IT BY MAIL SHALL CONSTITUTE SUFFICIENT NOTICE. NOTHING HEREIN SHALL AFFECT THE RIGHT TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW OR SHALL LIMIT THE RIGHT OF BENEFICIARY TO BRING PROCEEDINGS AGAINST TRUSTOR IN THE COURTS OF ANY OTHER JURISDICTION. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS DEED OF TRUST OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.
SECTION 13.14.Severability of Provisions. Any provision hereof which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.
SECTION 13.15.Limitation on Interest Payable. It is the intention of the parties to conform strictly to the usury laws, whether state or Federal, that are applicable to the transaction of which this Deed of Trust is a part. All agreements between the Trustor and the Beneficiary whether now existing or hereafter arising and whether oral or written, are hereby expressly limited so that in no contingency or event whatsoever shall the amount paid or agreed to be paid by the Trustor for the use, forbearance or detention of the money to be loaned under the Indenture or any other Notes Document, or for the payment or performance of any covenant or obligation contained herein or in the Indenture or any other Notes Document, exceed the maximum amount permissible under applicable Federal or state usury laws. If under any circumstances whatsoever fulfillment of any such provision, at the time performance of such provision shall be due, shall involve exceeding the limit of validity prescribed by law, then the obligation to be fulfilled shall be reduced to the limit of such validity. If under any circumstances the Trustor shall have paid an amount deemed interest by applicable law, which would exceed the highest lawful rate, such amount that would be excessive interest under applicable usury laws shall be applied to the reduction of the principal amount owing in respect of the Secured Obligations and not to the payment of interest, or if such excessive interest exceeds the unpaid balance of principal and any other amounts due hereunder, the excess shall be refunded to the Trustor. All sums paid or agreed to be paid for the use, forbearance or detention of the principal under any extension of credit by the Beneficiary shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, and to the extent necessary to preclude exceeding the limit of validity prescribed by law, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread from the Effective Date until payment in full of the Secured Obligations so that the actual rate of interest on account of such principal amounts is uniform throughout the term hereof.
SECTION 13.16.Business Days. In the event any time period or any date provided in this Deed of Trust ends or falls on a day other than a Business Day, then such time period shall be deemed to end and such date shall be deemed to fall on the next succeeding Business Day, and performance herein may be made on such Business Day, with the same force and effect as if made on such other day.
-37-
SECTION 13.17.Relationship. The relationship of the Beneficiary to the Trustor hereunder is strictly and solely that of lender and borrower and trustor and beneficiary and nothing contained in the Indenture, this Deed of Trust, the other Notes Documents or any other document or instrument now existing or delivered in connection therewith or otherwise in connection with the Secured Obligations is intended to create, or shall in any event or under any circumstance be construed as creating a partnership, joint venture, tenancy-in-common, joint tenancy or other relationship of any nature whatsoever between the Beneficiary and the Trustor other than as lender and borrower and trustor and beneficiary.
SECTION 13.18.Waiver of Stay.
(i) The Trustor agrees, to the full extent that it may lawfully do so, that in the event that the Trustor or any property or assets of the Trustor shall hereafter become the subject of a voluntary or involuntary proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code or the Trustor shall otherwise be a party to any Federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium or similar proceeding to which the provisions relating to the automatic stay under Section 362 of the Bankruptcy Code or any similar provision in any such law is applicable, then, in any such case, whether or not the Beneficiary has commenced foreclosure proceedings under this Deed of Trust, the Beneficiary shall be entitled to relief from any such automatic stay as it relates to the exercise of any of the rights and remedies (including, without limitation, any foreclosure proceedings) available to the Beneficiary as provided in this Deed of Trust or in any other Security Document.
(ii) The Beneficiary shall have the right to petition or move any court having jurisdiction over any proceeding described inSection 13.18(i) hereof for the purposes provided therein, and the Trustor agrees not to oppose any such petition or motion and at Trustor’s sole but reasonable cost and expense, to assist and cooperate with the Beneficiary, as may be reasonably requested by the Beneficiary from time to time, in obtaining any relief requested by the Beneficiary, including, without limitation, by filing any such petitions, supplemental petitions, requests for relief, documents, instruments or other items from time to time reasonably requested by the Beneficiary or any such court.
SECTION 13.19.No Credit for Payment of Taxes or Impositions. The Trustor shall not be entitled to any credit against the principal, premium, if any, or interest payable under the Indenture or any other Notes Document, and the Trustor shall not be entitled to any credit against any other sums which may become payable under the terms thereof or hereof, by reason of the payment of any Charge on the Mortgaged Property or any part thereof.
SECTION 13.20.No Claims Against the Beneficiary. Nothing contained in this Deed of Trust shall constitute any consent or request by the Beneficiary, express or implied, for the performance of any labor or services or the furnishing of any materials or other property in respect of the Premises or any part thereof, nor as giving the Trustor any right, power or authority to contract for or permit the performance of any labor or services or the furnishing of any materials or other property in such fashion as would permit the making of any claim against the Beneficiary in respect thereof or any claim that any Lien based on the performance of such labor or services or the furnishing of any such materials or other property is prior to the lien hereof.
-38-
SECTION 13.21.Obligations Absolute. All obligations of the Trustor hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional irrespective of:
(i) any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, arrangement, readjustment, composition, liquidation or the like of the Trustor or any other obligor;
(ii) any lack of validity or enforceability of either the Indenture, any other Notes Document, or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto;
(iii) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Secured Obligations, or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to any departure from either the Indenture, any other Notes Document, or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto;
(iv) any exchange, release or non-perfection of any Mortgaged Property or any Other Collateral, or any release or amendment or waiver of or consent to any departure from any guarantee, for all or any of the Secured Obligations;
(v) any exercise or non-exercise, or any waiver of any right, remedy, power or privilege under or in respect hereof or any other Notes Document except as specifically set forth in a waiver granted pursuant to the provisions ofSection 13.11 hereof; or
(vi) any other circumstances which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, the Trustor.
SECTION 13.22.Beneficiary’s Right To Sever Indebtedness.
(i) The Trustor acknowledges that (A) the Mortgaged Property does not constitute the sole source of security for the payment and performance of the Secured Obligations and that the Secured Obligations are also secured by other property of Trustor, and property of the Trustor’s Affiliates in other jurisdictions (all such property, collectively, the “Other Collateral”), (B) the number of such jurisdictions and the nature of the transaction of which this Deed of Trust is a part are such that it would have been impracticable for the parties to allocate to each item of Other Collateral a specific loan amount and to execute in respect of such item a separate credit agreement and (C) the Trustor intends that the Beneficiary have the same rights with respect to the Mortgaged Property, in foreclosure or otherwise, that the Beneficiary would have had if each item of Other Collateral had been secured, mortgaged or pledged pursuant to a separate credit agreement, mortgage or security instrument. In furtherance of such intent, the Trustor agrees that the Beneficiary may at any time by notice (an “Allocation Notice”) to the Trustor allocate a portion (the “Allocated Indebtedness”) of the Secured Obligations to the Mortgaged Property and sever from the remaining Secured Obligations the Allocated Indebtedness. From and after the giving of an Allocation Notice with respect to the Mortgaged Property, the Secured Obligations hereunder shall be limited to the extent set forth in the Allocation Notice and (as so limited) shall, for all purposes, be construed as a separate loan obligation of the Trustor unrelated to the other transactions contemplated by either the Indenture, any other Notes Document or any document related to any thereof. To the extent that the
-39-
proceeds on any foreclosure of the Mortgaged Property shall exceed the Allocated Indebtedness, such proceeds shall belong to the Trustor and shall not be available hereunder to satisfy any Secured Obligations of the Trustor other than the Allocated Indebtedness. In any action or proceeding to foreclose the lien hereof or in connection with any power of sale, foreclosure or other remedy exercised under this Deed of Trust commenced after the giving by the Beneficiary of an Allocation Notice, the Allocation Notice shall be conclusive proof of the limits of the Secured Obligations hereby secured, and the Trustor may introduce, by way of defense or counterclaim, evidence thereof in any such action or proceeding. Notwithstanding any provision of thisSection 13.22, the proceeds received by the Beneficiary pursuant to this Deed of Trust shall be applied by the Beneficiary in accordance with the provisions ofSection 9.3(iv) hereof.
(ii) The Trustor hereby waives to the greatest extent permitted under law the right to a discharge of any of the Secured Obligations under any statute or rule of law now or hereafter in effect which provides that foreclosure of the lien hereof or other remedy exercised under this Deed of Trust constitutes the exclusive means for satisfaction of the Secured Obligations or which makes unavailable a deficiency judgment or any subsequent remedy because the Beneficiary elected to proceed with a power of sale foreclosure or such other remedy or because of any failure by the Beneficiary to comply with laws that prescribe conditions to the entitlement to a deficiency judgment. In the event that, notwithstanding the foregoing waiver, any court shall for any reason hold that the Beneficiary is not entitled to a deficiency judgment, the Trustor shall not (A) introduce in any other jurisdiction such judgment as a defense to enforcement against the Trustor of any remedy in any Notes Document or (B) seek to have such judgment recognized or entered in any other jurisdiction, and any such judgment shall in all events be limited in application only to the state or jurisdiction where rendered.
(iii) In the event any instrument in addition to the Allocation Notice is necessary to effectuate the provisions of thisSection 13.22, including, without limitation, any amendment to this Deed of Trust, any substitute promissory note or affidavit or certificate of any kind, the Beneficiary may execute, deliver or record such instrument as the attorney-in-fact of the Trustor. Such power of attorney is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable.
(iv) Notwithstanding anything set forth herein to the contrary, the provisions of thisSection 13.22 shall be effective only to the maximum extent permitted by law.
SECTION 13.23.Multi-Site Real Estate Transaction. Trustor acknowledges that this Deed of Trust is one of a number of mortgages and other security documents (“Other Mortgages”) that secure the Secured Obligations. Trustor agrees that the lien of this Deed of Trust shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not in any manner be affected or impaired by any acts or omissions whatsoever of Beneficiary, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the lien hereof shall not be impaired by any acceptance by Beneficiary of any security for or guarantees of the Secured Obligations, or by any failure, neglect or omission on the part of Beneficiary to realize upon or protect any Secured Obligation or any collateral security therefor including the Other Mortgages. The lien of this Deed of Trust shall not in any manner be impaired or affected by any release (except as to the property released), sale, pledge, surrender, compromise, settlement, renewal, extension, indulgence, alteration, changing, modification or disposition of any of the Secured Obligations or of any of the collateral security therefor, including
-40-
the Other Mortgages or any guarantee thereof, and, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Beneficiary may at its discretion foreclose, exercise any power of sale, or exercise any other remedy available to it under any or all of the Other Mortgages without first exercising or enforcing any of its rights and remedies hereunder. Such exercise of Beneficiary’s rights and remedies under any or all of the Other Mortgages shall not in any manner impair the indebtedness hereby secured or the lien of this Deed of Trust and any exercise of the rights and remedies of Beneficiary hereunder shall not impair the lien of any of the Other Mortgages or any of Beneficiary’s rights and remedies thereunder. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Trustor specifically consents and agrees that Beneficiary may exercise its rights and remedies hereunder and under the Other Mortgages separately or concurrently and in any order that it may deem appropriate and waives any right of subrogation.
ARTICLE XIV.
ADDITIONAL STATE OF TEXAS PROVISIONS
To the extent of any conflict between the provisions of thisArticle XIV and any of the other provisions of this Deed of Trust, the provisions of thisArticle XIV shall control.
SECTION 14.1.Compliance with Applicable Law. Notwithstanding anything else herein to the contrary,
(i) In the event that any provision in this Deed of Trust shall be inconsistent with any provision of Texas law regarding judicial foreclosure or non-judicial foreclosure, including the Act (the “Texas Foreclosure Law”), the provisions of the Texas Foreclosure Law shall take precedence over the provisions of this Deed of Trust, but shall not invalidate or render unenforceable any other provision of this Deed of Trust that can be construed in a manner consistent with Texas Foreclosure Law; and
(ii) If any provision of this Deed of Trust shall grant to Beneficiary (including Beneficiary acting as a mortgagee-in-possession) or a receiver appointed pursuant to the provisions of this Deed of Trust, any rights or remedies prior to, upon or following the occurrence of an Event of Default which are more limited than the rights that would otherwise be vested in Beneficiary or such receiver under the Texas Foreclosure Law in the absence of said provision, Beneficiary and such receiver shall be vested with the rights granted under the Texas Foreclosure Law to the full extent permitted by law.
SECTION 14.2.Additional Provisions.
(i) To the extent the highest lawful rate is determined by reference to the laws of the State of Texas, same shall be determined by reference to the indicated (weekly) rate ceiling (as defined and described in Tex. Finance Code § 303.002, as amended) at the applicable time in effect.
-41-
(ii) In consideration of the premises and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Trustor hereby confirms and agrees that this Deed of Trust (including the Exhibits hereto), the Indenture and any other Notes Documents related hereto or thereto executed by any of the parties hereto or thereto substantially concurrently herewith together constitute a written “loan agreement” as defined in Section 26.02(a) of the Texas Business and Commerce Code.
SECTION 14.3.Texas Foreclosure Provisions. Notwithstanding any term or provision otherwise set forth in this Deed of Trust, the following terms and provisions shall govern and control:
(i) If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Mortgaged Property Trustee, its successor or substitute, is authorized and empowered and it shall be his special duty at the request of Beneficiary to sell the Mortgaged Property, or any part thereof, in compliance with the applicable requirements, at the time of sale, of Section 51.002 of the Texas Property Code, at public auction to the highest bidder for cash between the hours of 10 o’clock a.m. and 4 o’clock p.m. on the first Tuesday in any month after having given notice of such sale in accordance with the statutes of the State of Texas then in force governing sales of real estate under powers conferred by this Deed of Trust. Such sale shall be made at the courthouse of the county in which the Mortgaged Property (or any of that portion thereof to be sold) is located (whether the parts or parcels thereof, if any, in different counties are contiguous or not, and except as otherwise set forth under applicable law, and without the necessity of having any personally present at such sale) in the area designated by the county commissioners for foreclosure sales (or, if no area has been designated, at the location at the courthouse designated by Beneficiary by or through Trustee in the notice hereinbefore described). Any sale made by Mortgaged Property Trustee hereunder may be as an entirety or in such parcels as Beneficiary may request, and any sale may be adjourned by announcement at the time and place appointed for such sale without further notice except as may be required by law. The sale by Mortgaged Property Trustee of less than the whole of the Mortgaged Property shall not exhaust the power of sale herein granted, and Mortgaged Property Trustee is specifically empowered to make successive sale or sales under such power until the whole of the Mortgaged Property shall be sold; and, if the proceeds of such sale of less than the whole of the Mortgaged Property shall be less than the aggregate of the Secured Obligations secured hereby and the expense of executing this trust as provided herein, this Deed of Trust and the lien hereof shall remain in full force and effect as to the unsold portion of the Mortgaged Property just as though no sale had been made; provided, however, that Trustor shall not have any right to require the sale of less than the whole of the Mortgaged Property but Beneficiary shall have the right, at its sole election, to request Mortgaged Property Trustee to sell less than the whole of the Mortgaged Property. After each sale, Mortgaged Property Trustee shall make to the purchaser or purchasers at such sale good and sufficient conveyances in the name of Trustor, conveying the property so sold to the purchaser or purchasers in fee simple with general warranty of title, and shall receive the proceeds of said sale or sales and apply the same as herein provided. Payment of the purchase price to Mortgaged Property Trustee shall satisfy the obligation of purchaser at such sale therefor, and such purchaser shall not be responsible for the application thereof. The power of sale granted herein shall not be exhausted by any sale held hereunder by Mortgaged Property Trustee or his substitute or successor, and such power of sale may be exercised from time to time and as many
-42-
times as Beneficiary may deem necessary until all of the Mortgaged Property has been duly sold and all Secured Obligations have been fully paid. In the event any sale hereunder is not completed or is defective in the opinion of Beneficiary, such sale shall not exhaust the power of sale hereunder and Beneficiary shall have the right to cause a subsequent sale or sales to be made hereunder. Any and all statements of fact or other recitals made in any deed or deeds given by Mortgaged Property Trustee or any successor or substitute appointed hereunder as to nonpayment of the Secured Obligations secured hereby, or as to the occurrence of any default, or as to Beneficiary having declared all of such indebtedness to be due and payable, or as to the request to sell, or as to notice of time, place and terms of sale and of the properties to be sold having been duly given, or as to the refusal, failure or inability to act of Mortgaged Property Trustee or any substitute or successor, or as to the appointment of any substitute or successor trustee, or as to any other act or thing having been duly done by Beneficiary or by such Mortgaged Property Trustee, substitute or successor, shall be taken as prima facie evidence of the truth of the facts so stated and recited. Mortgaged Property Trustee, its successor or substitute, may appoint or delegate any one or more persons as Beneficiary to perform any act or acts necessary or incident to any sale held by Mortgaged Property Trustee, including the posting of notices and the conduct of sale, but in the name and on behalf of Mortgaged Property Trustee, its successor or substitute.
(ii) Beneficiary shall have the right to become the purchaser at any sale held by any Mortgaged Property Trustee or substitute or successor or by any receiver or public officer, and Beneficiary purchasing at any such sale shall have the right to credit upon the amount of the bid made therefor, to the extent necessary to satisfy such bid, the Secured Obligations owing to Beneficiary.
(iii) At any sale held by any Mortgaged Property Trustee or a Substitute Trustee, Mortgaged Property Trustee or such Substitute Trustee shall deliver to the purchaser or purchasers at such sale its good and sufficient deed or deeds conveying the property so sold, with a general warranty of title, made on behalf of Trustor. The recitals in such deed of any matters or facts shall be conclusive proof of the truthfulness thereof. Any Person, including, without limitation, Mortgaged Property Trustee, Beneficiary, or other Secured Parties, may purchase at such sale, and Trustor hereby covenants to warrant and defend the title of such purchaser or purchasers.
(iv) Mortgaged Property Trustee may postpone the sale of all or any portion of the Mortgaged Property by public announcement at the time and place of the scheduled sale, and from time to time thereafter may postpone such sale by public announcement at the time fixed by the preceding postponement or subsequent notice of sale, and without further notice may make such sale at the time fixed by the last postponement, or may, in its discretion, give a new notice of sale.
(v) Trustor hereby expressly waives any right which it may have to direct the order in which any of the Mortgaged Property shall be sold in the event of any sale or sales pursuant to this Deed of Trust.
SECTION 14.4.NOTICE OF FINAL AGREEMENT.
-43-
THIS DEED OF TRUST, THE INDENTURE AND OTHER NOTES DOCUMENTS BETWEEN THE PARTIES REPRESENT THE FINAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE PARTIES AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS, OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES.
THERE ARE NO UNWRITTEN ORAL AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE PARTIES.
SECTION 14.5. Waiver of Deficiency Statute.
(i)Waiver. In the event an interest in any of the Mortgaged Property is foreclosed upon pursuant to a judicial or nonjudicial foreclosure sale, Trustor agrees as follows: notwithstanding the provisions of Sections 51.003, 51.004, and 51.005 of the Texas Property Code (as the same may be amended from time to time), and to the extent permitted by law, Trustor agrees that Beneficiary shall be entitled to seek a deficiency judgment from Trustor and any other party obligated on the Notes Documents equal to the difference between the amount owing on the Notes Documents and the amount for which the Mortgaged Property was sold pursuant to judicial or nonjudicial foreclosure sale. Trustor expressly recognizes that this Section constitutes a waiver of the above-cited provisions of the Texas Property Code which would otherwise permit Trustor and other persons against whom recovery of deficiencies is sought or Guarantors independently (even absent the initiation of deficiency proceedings against them) to present competent evidence of the fair market value of the Mortgaged Property as of the date of the foreclosure sale and offset against any deficiency the amount by which the foreclosure sale price is determined to be less than such fair market value. Trustor further recognizes and agrees that this waiver creates an irrebuttable presumption that the foreclosure sale price is equal to the fair market value of the Mortgaged Property for purposes of calculating deficiencies owed by Trustor, Guarantors, and others against whom recovery of a deficiency is sought.
(ii)Alternative to Waiver. Alternatively, in the event the waiver provided for insubsection (i) above is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable, the following shall be the basis for the finder of fact’s determination of the fair market value of the Mortgaged Property as of the date of the foreclosure sale in proceedings governed by Sections 51.003, 51.004 and 51.005 of the Texas Property Code (as amended from time to time): (i) the Mortgaged Property shall be valued in an “as is” condition as of the date of the foreclosure sale, without any assumption or expectation that the Mortgaged Property will be repaired or improved in any manner before a resale of the Mortgaged Property after foreclosure; (ii) the valuation shall be based upon an assumption that the foreclosure purchaser desires a resale of the Mortgaged Property for cash promptly (but no later than twelve (12) months) following the foreclosure sale; (iii) all reasonable closing costs customarily borne by the seller in commercial real estate transactions should be deducted from the gross fair market value of the Mortgaged Property, including, without limitation, brokerage commissions, title insurance, a survey of the Mortgaged Property, tax prorations, attorneys’ fees, and marketing costs; (iv) the gross fair market value of the Mortgaged Property shall be further discounted to account for any estimated holding costs associated with maintaining the Mortgaged Property pending sale, including, without limitation, utilities expenses, property management fees, taxes and assessments (to the extent not accounted for in (iii) above), and other maintenance, operational and ownership
-44-
expenses; and (v) any expert opinion testimony given or considered in connection with a determination of the fair market value of the Mortgaged Property must be given by persons having at least five (5) years experience in appraising property similar to the Mortgaged Property and who have conducted and prepared a complete written appraisal of the Mortgaged Property taking into consideration the factors set forth above.
