Lender shall be the sole judge of the legality, validity and priority of any such Tax, claim and premium; of the necessity for any such actions; and of the amount necessary to be paid in satisfaction thereof. Lender is hereby empowered to enter and to authorize others to enter upon the Premises or any part thereof for the purpose of performing or observing any such defaulted covenant, condition or term, without thereby becoming liable to Grantor or any Person in possession holding under Grantor. 2.10. FURTHER ASSURANCES.

Upon any failure by Grantor so to do, Lender may make, execute and record any and all such instruments, certificates and documents for and in the name of Grantor and Grantor hereby irrevocably appoints Lender, the agent and attorney-in-fact of Grantor so to do. 2.11. REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND COVENANTS REGARDING THE LEASEHOLD ESTATE. With respect to the Ground Lease, Grantor hereby represents, covenants and warrants that: (a) The Ground Lease is in full force and effect and unmodified. (b) All rents (including additional rents and other charges) reserved in the Ground Lease and all services or other consideration to be provided or paid under the Ground Lease have been paid or provided to the extent they were payable or required prior to the date hereof. (c) There is no existing default under the provisions of the Ground Lease or in the performance of any of the terms, covenants, conditions or warranties thereof on the part of the lessee to be observed and performed beyond any applicable grace period. 11 12 (d) Grantor has not sublet the Leasehold Estate or assigned the Ground Lease. (e) Grantor shall also provide all services required by the Ground Lease, for which provisions have not been made hereinbefore, when and as the same shall become due and payable, and shall cause the Ground Lessor under the Ground Lease, to the extent permitted by the Ground Lease, to pay any portion of said taxes, assessments, rates, charges and impositions to be borne by the Ground Lessor under the Ground Lease, if any, that might become liens on the Real Property or the Leasehold Estate when due, and Grantor shall in every case take, or cause to be taken, a proper receipt for any such item so paid by Grantor and, upon request of Lender, Grantor shall deliver, or cause to be delivered to Lender on the first day of the calendar month following any such payment, evidence, reasonably acceptable to Lender, of any such payments by Grantor and will observe and timely perform all of the covenants. (f) Grantor shall at all times promptly and faithfully keep and perform, or cause to be kept and performed, all the covenants and conditions contained in the Ground Lease by the lessee therein to be kept and performed. Grantor further covenants that it will not do or permit anything to be done, the doing of which, or refrain from doing anything, the omission of which, will impair the security of this Deed or will be grounds for declaring a forfeiture of the Ground Lease. If Grantor shall fail to comply with all covenants and conditions imposed upon or assumed by it as tenant under the Ground Lease, without waiving or releasing Grantor from any of its obligations hereunder, Lender may (but shall not be obligated to) take any action Lender deems necessary or desirable to prevent or to cure any default by Grantor in the compliance with any of Grantor's covenants under the Ground Lease. Upon receipt by Lender from the Ground Lessor under the Ground Lease of any written notice of default by tenant thereunder, Lender may rely thereon and take any action, as aforesaid, to cure such default even though the existence of such default or the nature thereof be questioned or denied by Grantor or by any party on behalf of Grantor. 12 13 (g) Grantor hereby expressly grants to Lender (to the extent permitted under the Ground Lease), and agrees that Lender shall have the absolute and immediate right (to the extent permitted under the Ground Lease), to enter in and upon the Premises or any part thereof to such extent and as often as Lender, in its sole discretion, deems necessary or desirable, in order to prevent or to cure any such default by Grantor under the Ground Lease beyond any applicable grace or notice period, if any. Lender may pay and expend such sums or money as Lender, in its sole discretion, deems necessary for such purpose, and Grantor hereby agrees to pay to Lender, promptly after written request, all such sums so paid and expended by Lender, together with interest thereon from the date of such expenditure to the date of repayment at the rate of interest determined in accordance with Section 8.2(c) of the Purchase Agreement (the "Default Rate"). All sums so paid and expended by Lender, and the interest thereon shall be added to and be secured by the lien of this Deed. (h) Grantor also covenants that it will not modify or in any way alter any material term of the Ground Lease or cancel or surrender the Ground Lease, or waive, excuse, condone or in any way release or discharge the lessor thereunder of or from the obligations, covenants, conditions and agreements by said Ground Lessor to be done and performed; and Grantor does by these presents expressly release, relinquish and surrender unto Lender all its right, power and authority to cancel, surrender, amend, modify or alter in any material way the terms and provisions of the Ground Lease and any attempt on the part of Grantor to exercise any such right without the written authority and consent of Lender thereto being first had and obtained shall constitute a default under the terms hereof and the entire Indebtedness shall, at the option of Lender, become due and payable forthwith; however, Grantor shall duly exercise such option to renew the Ground Lease in the manner provided in the Ground Lease. (i) An Event of Default under the Purchase Agreement and under this Deed shall have occurred if Grantor fails (i) to give Lender immediate notice of any receipt by it of any notice of default from the landlord under the Ground Lease; (ii) to furnish to 13 14 Lender within fifteen (15) days any and all information which it may reasonably request concerning the performance by the Grantor of the covenants of the Ground Lease; (iii) to permit forthwith Lender or its representative at all reasonable times to make investigation or examination concerning such performance; or (iv) within the applicable notice or grace period (if any) under the Ground Lease, to fully perform and comply with all agreements, covenants, terms and conditions imposed upon or assumed by it as tenant under the Ground Lease, or do or permit anything to be done, the doing of which or refrain from doing will impair the security of this Deed or will be grounds for declaring a forfeiture of the Ground Lease. Grantor further covenants and agrees that it will promptly deposit with Lender an original executed copy of the Ground Lease or a copy certified by the Grantor as true, complete and correct and any and all documentary evidence received by it showing compliance by Grantor with the provisions of the Ground Lease and will also promptly deliver to Lender following receipt thereof by Grantor an exact copy of any notice, communication, plan, specification or other Deed or document received or given by it in any way relating to or affecting the Ground Lease or any part of the Premises which may concern or affect the estate of the landlord, the Leasehold Estate or the leasehold premises thereby demised and upon the Grantor's failure so to do, Lender may, at its option, declare a default hereunder and an Event of Default under the Purchase Agreement to have occurred. (j) So long as any of the Indebtedness shall remain unpaid, unless Lender shall otherwise in writing consent, the Leasehold Estate and the fee estate covered by the Ground Lease shall not merge but shall always be kept separate and distinct, notwithstanding the union of said estates either in the Ground Lessor or in the lessee, or in a third party, by purchase or otherwise; and Grantor further covenants and agrees that, in case it shall acquire the fee title, or any other estate, title or interest in the leasehold premises covered by the Ground Lease, including, without limitation, pursuant to the purchase option or right of first refusal, if any, set forth in the Ground Lease, this Deed shall attach to or cover and be a lien upon such other estate so 14 15 acquired, and such other estate so acquired by Grantor shall be considered as granted, assigned or conveyed to the Lender and the lien hereof spread to cover such estate with the same force and effect as though specifically herein, granted, assigned or conveyed. (k) In the event of any default by Grantor in the performance of any of its obligations under the Ground Lease, including, without limitation, any default in the payment of rent and other charges and impositions made payable by Grantor thereunder, which default shall continue beyond the applicable grace period, if any, then, in each and every case, Lender may, at its option and without notice, cause the default or defaults to be remedied and otherwise exercise any and all of the rights of Grantor thereunder in the name of and on behalf of Grantor. Grantor shall, on demand, reimburse Lender for all advances made and expenses incurred by Lender in curing any such default (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees), together with interest thereon computed at the Default Rate from the date that an advance is made or expense is incurred to and including the date the same is paid. Upon receipt by Lender from Ground Lessor of any written notice of default on the part of Grantor under the Ground Lease, Lender may rely thereon and take any action as Lender shall deem necessary or desirable even though the existence of such default or the nature thereof be questioned or denied by or on behalf of Grantor. (l) Grantor expressly agrees that if there shall be filed by or against Ground Lessor under the Ground Lease any petition, action and/or proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code, or any other similar federal and/or state law now or hereafter in effect (collectively hereinafter referred to as the "Lessor's Bankruptcy"), Grantor shall not elect to treat the Ground Lease as terminated, canceled and/or surrendered pursuant to applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code including, but not limited to, Section 365(h)(1), without Lender's prior written consent. In the event of the Lessor's Bankruptcy, Grantor expressly covenants and agrees, intending that Lender rely thereon, that it shall reaffirm and ratify the legality, validity, binding effect and enforceability of the Ground Lease to Lender and Grantor also covenants and agrees that it shall remain in 15 16 possession of the Premises and the leasehold estate created by the Ground Lease, notwithstanding any rejection thereof by the Landlord under the Ground Lease and/or any trustee, custodian, receiver or other similar official. (m) The rights of Lender hereunder attach to all of Grantor's rights and remedies now and hereafter arising under or pursuant to the Bankruptcy Code, including, but not limited to, Grantor's right to elect to remain in possession of the Premises and the leasehold estate created by the Ground Lease in the event of the Lessor's Bankruptcy pursuant to Section 365(h)(1). Any such election to terminate, cancel and/or surrender the Ground Lease in the event of the Lessor's Bankruptcy without Lender's prior written consent shall be null and void. (n) Grantor hereby unconditionally assigns, transfers, and sets over to Lender (i) all of Grantor's claims and rights to damages, and any other remedies in connection therewith arising from any rejection of the Ground Lease by the Ground Lessor thereunder pursuant to the Bankruptcy Code in the event of the Lessor's Bankruptcy, and/or by any trustee, custodian, receiver or other similar official. Lender shall have the right, but not the obligation, to proceed in its own name and/or in the name of Grantor in respect of any claim, suit, action and/or proceeding relating to such rejection of the Ground Lease, including, but not limited to, the right to file and prosecute, to the exclusion of Grantor, any and all proofs of claims, complaints, notices and other documents in any case in respect of the lessor of the Ground Lease under and pursuant to the Bankruptcy Code, and (ii) Grantor's right of election to remain in possession of the Premises in the event of the Lessor's Bankruptcy under and pursuant to Section 365(h)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code. This assignment constitutes a present, absolute, irrevocable and unconditional assignment of the foregoing claims, elections, rights and remedies, and shall continue in full force and effect until the Note and the Indebtedness have been paid in full and this Deed has been satisfied and discharged. Any amounts received by Lender as damages arising out of the rejection of the Ground Lease by the Ground Lessor 16 17 shall be applied in the manner set forth in Article III of this Deed. (o) Grantor shall give Lender notice of its intention to exercise each and every option to extend the term of the Ground Lease or to exercise any purchase option under the Ground Lease at least twenty (20) but not more than sixty (60) days prior to the expiration of the time to exercise such option under the terms of the Ground Lease. If Grantor intends to extend the term of the Ground Lease or to exercise any purchase option under the Ground Lease, it shall deliver to Lender, together with the notice of such decision, a copy of the notice of extension or exercise delivered to the Lessor. If Lender does not intend to extend the term of the Ground Lease or to exercise any purchase option under the Ground Lease, Lender may, at its option, exercise the option in the name and on behalf of Grantor. In any event, Grantor hereby appoints Lender as its attorney-in-fact to execute and deliver, for and in the name of Grantor, all instruments and agreements necessary under the Ground Lease or otherwise to cause any extension of the term of the Ground Lease or to exercise any purchase option under the Ground Lease. This power, being coupled with an interest, shall be irrevocable as long as the Indebtedness secured hereby remains unpaid. 2.12. REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND COVENANTS REGARDING SUBLEASES AND RENTS. (a) Grantor hereby transfers, assigns and conveys unto Lender all of Grantor's right, title and interest in and to any Sublease and all of the Rents, reserving to Grantor a license to collect the Rents only so long as there is no Event of Default which shall have occurred and be continuing, said license to be revoked immediately upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and Lender's demand for the payment of the Indebtedness. Grantor agrees to execute and deliver such other instruments as Lender may require to evidence the assignment of the Subleases and Rents. 17 18 Nothing contained in this Section shall be deemed a consent by Lender to any Sublease. (b) Notwithstanding the right to collect the Rents, Grantor agrees that Lender, and not Grantor, shall be and shall be deemed to be the creditor of each tenant with respect to assignments for the benefit of creditors, and bankruptcy, arrangement, reorganization, insolvency, dissolution or receivership proceedings affecting each such tenant, but without obligation on the part of Lender, however, to file or make timely filings of claims in any such proceedings, or otherwise to pursue a creditor's rights therein. Lender in its sole discretion may apply any money received by Lender as such creditor in reduction of the Indebtedness secured by this Deed, whether or not such Indebtedness is then due and payable. (c) Lender shall have the right to assign Grantor's right, title and interest in the Subleases to any subsequent holder of this Deed, or to any person acquiring title to any of the Premises through foreclosure or otherwise. After Grantor shall have been barred and foreclosed of all right, title, interest, and equity of redemption in the Premises, no assignee of Grantor's interest in the Ground Leases shall be liable to account to Grantor for the Rents thereafter accruing. (d) Grantor agrees to indemnify and hold Lender harmless, and hereby releases Lender from and against any and all liability, loss, or damage which Lender may incur under the Subleases or by reason of this assignment, and from any and all claims and demands whatsoever which may be asserted against Lender by reason of any alleged obligation or undertaking to be performed or discharged by Lender under the Ground Lease, the Subleases or under this Deed. Nothing contained herein shall be construed to bind Lender or obligate Lender to perform any of the terms or provisions contained in the Subleases, or otherwise to impose any obligation on Lender whatsoever. Prior to actual entry and taking possession of the Premises by Lender, this assignment shall not operate to make Lender a "mortgagee in possession" or to place any responsibility for the control, care, management, or repair of the Premises upon Lender. Should Lender 18 19 incur any liability by reason of actual entry and taking possession by Lender, or for any other reason or occurrence relating thereto, or if Lender should sustain loss or damage under the Ground Lease, or the Subleases, or under or by reason of this assignment, or in the defense of any claims or demands relating thereto, then, Grantor shall immediately upon demand reimburse Lender for the amount of such liability, loss or damage, together with all costs and expenses and attorneys' fees incurred by Lender in relation thereto, all of the foregoing to bear interest until paid at the Default Rate, and Lender may retain possession and collect the Rents and, from time to time, apply them in or toward satisfaction of or reimbursement for said liability, loss or damage, without waiving any other rights and remedies hereunder. (e) Grantor shall duly perform and discharge each respective covenant, condition and obligation under the Subleases and agrees not to cancel, terminate, modify or otherwise vary any provision of any Subleases without Lender's prior written consent, or to discount any Rents or collect any Rents for any period of more than one month in advance. Grantor will give prompt written notice to Lender of any default under the Subleases known to Grantor, and shall furnish Lender with complete copies of all notices with respect thereto given or received by Grantor. If requested by Lender, Grantor will enforce the Subleases and remedies available to Grantor thereunder in the event of a default thereunder, and, if Grantor shall fail to so exercise such remedies upon request, Lender may, at its sole option and without obligation to do so, and without waiving any Event of Default of Grantor hereunder with respect thereto, enforce the same at Grantor's expense. (f) Grantor shall, at the request of Lender, execute such further assignments to Lender of all Subleases and Rents, as Lender shall require. ARTICLE III 3.01. EVENT OF DEFAULT. Each of the following shall constitute an "Event of Default" under this Deed: 19 20 (a) Failure by Grantor to pay any of the Indebtedness evidenced by the Note on the due date thereof (whether due at stated maturity, on demand, by acceleration or otherwise); (b) Failure by Grantor to pay any Indebtedness (other than that portion evidenced by the Note) when due (whether due on demand, at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise); or (c) The occurrence of an event of default under the Purchase Agreement; or (d) Failure by Grantor duly and punctually to observe, perform or discharge any covenant or duty in this Deed; or (e) Any claim of priority to this Deed by title, lien or otherwise is asserted by Grantor, or is asserted and finally established as valid by any other Person (other than with respect to Permitted Liens) in any equitable or legal proceeding, whether as a claim, counterclaim, defense or otherwise. 3.02. ACCELERATION OF MATURITY. Upon or after an Event of Default, Lender may, at its option, declare all or any portion of the Indebtedness to be (and the same shall thereupon become) immediately due and payable without notice or demand, time being of the essence of this Deed; and no omission or delay on the part of Lender to exercise such option when entitled so to do shall be considered as a waiver of such right. 3.03. RIGHT OF LENDER TO ENTER AND TAKE POSSESSION. (a) Upon or after the occurrence of an Event of Default, Grantor, upon demand of Lender, shall forthwith surrender to Lender the actual possession of the Premises and if, and to the extent, permitted by Applicable Law, Lender may enter and take possession of the Premises and may exclude Grantor and Grantor's agents and employees wholly therefrom. (b) Upon every such entering and taking of possession, Lender may hold, store, use, operate, manage, control, and maintain the Premises and conduct the business thereof, and, from time to time, (i) make all necessary and proper repairs, replacements, additions, and improvements thereto and thereon and purchase or acquire additional 20 21 fixtures, personalty and other property; (ii) insure or keep the Premises insured; (iii) manage and operate the Premises and exercise all the rights and powers of Grantor in its name or otherwise, with respect to the same and (iv) enter into any and all agreements with respect to the exercise by others of any of the powers herein granted Lender, all as Lender may from time to time determine to be to its best advantage; and Lender may collect and receive all of the income, rents, profits, issues and revenues of the Premises, including the past due as well as those accruing thereafter and, after deducting (aa) all expenses of taking, holding, managing and operating the Premises (including compensation for services of all Persons employed for such purposes); (bb) the cost of all such maintenance, repairs, replacements, additions, improvements, purchases, and acquisitions; (cc) the cost of such insurance; (dd) such Taxes prior to the lien of this Deed as Lender may determine to pay; (ee) other proper charges upon the Premises or any part thereof and (ff) the fees and expenses of attorneys and agents of Lender, shall apply the remainder of the money so received by Lender to any balance of the Indebtedness outstanding. (c) Grantor irrevocably consents that the tenant(s) under the Subleases, upon demand and notice from Lender to such tenants(s) of an Event of Default, shall pay all Rents under the Subleases to Lender, without liability of the tenant(s) for the determination of the actual occurrence of any Event of Default claimed by Lender. Grantor hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs the tenant(s), upon receipt of any notice of Lender stating that an Event of Default has occurred, to pay to Lender the Rents due and to become due under the Leases. Grantor agrees that the tenant(s) shall have the right to rely upon any such notices of Lender, and that tenant(s) shall pay such Rents to Lender, without any obligation and without any right to inquire as to whether an Event of Default has actually occurred, and notwithstanding any claim of or notice by Grantor to the contrary. Grantor shall have no claim against tenant(s) for any Rents paid by such tenant(s) to Lender. Nothing herein contained shall be construed to obligate Lender to discharge or perform the duties of a lessor to any tenant or to impose liability upon Lender as the result of any exercise by Lender of its rights under this Deed, and Lender shall be liable to account only for the Rents, incomes and profits actually received by Lender. 21 22 (d) For the purpose of carrying out the provisions of this Section 3.03, Grantor hereby constitutes and appoints Lender the true and lawful attorney-in-fact of Grantor to do and perform, from time to time, any and all actions necessary and incidental to such purpose and does, by these presents, ratify and confirm any and all actions of said attorney-in-fact in the Premises. 3.04. APPOINTMENT OF A RECEIVER. (a) Upon or after the occurrence of an Event of Default, Lender, upon application to a court of competent jurisdiction, shall be entitled, without notice and without regard to the adequacy of any security for the Indebtedness or the solvency of any party bound for its payment, to the appointment of a receiver to take possession of and to operate the Premises and to collect the rents, profits, issues, and revenues thereof. (b) Grantor will pay to Lender upon demand all expenses, including receiver's fees, attorneys' fees, costs and agent's compensation, incurred pursuant to this Section 3.04; and all such expenses shall constitute part of the Indebtedness and shall be secured by this Deed. 3.05. POWER OF SALE. Upon or after the occurrence of an Event of Default, Lender, at its option, may sell the Premises or any part of the Premises at public sale or sales before the door of the courthouse of the county in which the Premises or any part of the Premises is situated, to the highest bidder for cash, in order to pay the Indebtedness and accrued interest thereon and all expenses of the sale and of all proceedings in connection therewith, including attorneys' fees, if incurred, after advertising the time, place and terms of sale once a week for four (4) weeks in a newspaper in which sheriff's sales are advertised in said county. Lender may bid and purchase at such sale. At any such public sale, Lender may execute and deliver to the purchaser a conveyance of the Premises or any part of the Premises in fee simple with full warranties of title and to this end, Grantor hereby constitutes and appoints Lender the agent and attorney-in-fact of Grantor to make such sale and conveyance, and thereby to divest Grantor of all right, title or equity that Grantor may have in and to the Premises and to vest the same in the purchaser or purchasers at such sale or sales, and all the acts and doings of said agent and attorney-in-fact are hereby ratified and confirmed and any recitals in said 22 23 conveyance or conveyances as to facts essential to a valid sale shall be binding on Grantor. The aforesaid power of sale and agency hereby granted are coupled with an interest and are irrevocable by death or otherwise, are granted as cumulative of the other remedies provided by law for collection of the Indebtedness and shall not be exhausted by one exercise thereof but may be exercised until full payment of all sums secured hereby. Upon any such public sale pursuant to the aforementioned power of sale and agency, the proceeds of said sale shall be applied first to the costs and expenses of such sale and of all proceedings in connection therewith, including reasonable attorneys' fees, and the balance shall be applied to the remainder of the Indebtedness. Any excess shall be paid to Grantor or to such other Person as may be required by Applicable Law. 3.06. GRANTOR AS TENANT HOLDING OVER. In the event of any such public sale pursuant to the aforesaid power of sale and agency, Grantor shall be deemed a tenant holding over and shall forthwith deliver possession to the purchaser or purchasers at such sale or be summarily dispossessed according to provisions of law applicable to tenants holding over. 3.07. DISCONTINUANCE OF PROCEEDINGS AND RESTORATION OF THE PARTIES. In case Lender shall have proceeded to enforce any right of remedy under this Deed by receiver, entry or otherwise, and such proceedings shall have been discontinued or abandoned for any reason or shall have been determined adversely to Lender, then and in every such case Grantor and Lender shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder, and all rights, powers and remedies of Lender shall continue as if no such proceeding had been taken. 3.08. REMEDIES CUMULATIVE. No right, power or remedy conferred upon or reserved to Lender by this Deed is intended to be exclusive of any other right, power or remedy, but each and every such right, power and remedy shall be cumulative and concurrent and shall be in addition to any other right, power and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute. 3.09. NON-RESIDENTIAL STATUS OF PREMISES. Grantor represents and warrants to Lender that neither all of the Premises nor any part thereof is to be used as a dwelling place by Grantor at the time this Deed is entered into and, accordingly, the notice requirement of O.C.G.A. 23 24 Sections 44-14-162.2 and 44-14-162.3 shall not be applicable to any exercise of the power of sale contained in this Deed. ARTICLE IV 4.01. SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS INCLUDED IN PARTIES. Whenever in this Deed one of the parties hereto is named or referred to, the legal representatives, successors and assigns of such parties shall be included and all covenants and agreements contained in this Deed by or on behalf of Grantor or by or on behalf of Lender shall bind and inure to the benefit of their respective legal representatives, successors and assigns.
