(a) Types of Insurance. Grantor shall procure for, deliver to, and maintain for the benefit of Agent, or cause the Tenant(s) to procure for, deliver to and maintain for the benefit of Agent, during the term of this Security Instrument original paid up insurance policies or certified copies of paid up insurance policies (or, if there is blanket coverage, Agent shall require an underlier policy with the Collateral identified and specifically allocated amounts shown) in such amounts, form and substance as are required under Section 8.4 of the Credit Agreement.

All insurance policies maintained pursuant to this Section shall be in form and substance satisfactory to Agent, provided that all policies of liability coverage shall require not less than 30 days’ prior written notice to Agent of any cancellation, termination, expiration or change in coverage. Without limiting the discretion of Agent with respect to required endorsements to insurance policies, all such policies for loss of or damage to the Collateral shall contain a standard mortgagee clause (without contribution) naming Agent as mortgagee with loss proceeds payable to Agent notwithstanding (i) any act, failure to act or negligence of or violation of any warranty, declaration or condition contained in any such policy by any named insured; (ii) the occupation or use of the Collateral for purposes more hazardous than permitted by the terms of any such policy; (iii) any foreclosure or other action by Agent under the Loan Documents; or (iv) any change in title to or ownership of the Collateral or any portion thereof, such proceeds to be held for application as provided in the Loan Documents.
(c) Proof of Insurance. Within one (1) Business Day of the expiration or renewal date of each policy maintained pursuant to this Section, Grantor shall deliver to Agent evidence reasonably satisfactory to Agent that such policy has been renewed and that any such premiums related to such policy have been timely paid (which premiums may be financed pursuant to a payment or financing plan provided by the insurance carrier providing such insurance).

(e) Payment of Proceeds to Agent. While an Event of Default exists, Agent is hereby authorized and empowered, at its option, to adjust or compromise any loss under any insurance policies maintained pursuant to this Section and to collect and receive the proceeds from any such policy or policies. In addition, Grantor hereby authorizes and directs each insurance company to make payment for all losses involving casualty insurance proceeds (other than business interruption insurance proceeds) in excess of $5,000,000 (a “Major Casualty”) directly to Agent. If any insurance company fails to disburse directly and solely to Agent in accordance with the requirements of the immediately preceding sentences, but disburses instead either solely to Grantor or to Grantor and Agent jointly, Grantor agrees immediately to endorse and transfer such proceeds to Agent. Upon the failure of Grantor to endorse and transfer such proceeds as aforesaid, Agent may execute such endorsements or transfers for and in the name of Grantor, and Grantor hereby irrevocably appoints Agent as Grantor’s agent and attorney-in-fact to do so, such appointment being coupled with an interest and being irrevocable.

(a) in Agent’s reasonable judgment, the Collateral can, with diligent restoration, be returned to a condition at least equal to the condition thereof that existed prior to the casualty within 60 days prior to the Maturity Date; provided however that this condition shall not apply in the event that (i) a new Appraisal of the Property in its then current condition is delivered pursuant to Section 4.2(c) of the Credit Agreement, (ii) a forward looking calculation of the Adjusted Net Operating Income of the Property for the immediately succeeding four (4) fiscal quarters, on a Pro Forma Basis taking into account the then current condition of the Property, is mutually agreed upon by Grantor and Agent, (iii) MG Borrower shall have delivered a Borrowing Base Certificate to Agent which Borrowing Base Certificate shall be calculated using the information determined pursuant to the immediately preceding clauses (i) and (ii) and (iv) based on the Borrowing Base calculated in the Borrowing Base Certificate delivered pursuant to the immediately preceding clause (iii), Borrowers is in compliance with Section 2.6(b) of the Credit Agreement.
(b) no Event of Default exists;
(c) all necessary Governmental Approvals can be obtained to allow the rebuilding and reoccupancy of the Collateral;

(ii) if the Restoration Conditions are not satisfied within 90 days following a Major Casualty, to the payment of the Obligations, whether or not due and as provided in Section 11.4 of the Credit Agreement or for any other purposes or objects for which Agent is expressly entitled to advance or apply funds under the Loan Documents;
all without affecting the Lien of this Security Instrument, and any balance of such moneys then remaining shall be paid to Grantor or whomever may be legally entitled thereto.

Section 3.14 Hold Harmless. Grantor shall defend, at its own cost and expense, and hold Agent and Lenders harmless from any action, proceeding or claim affecting the Collateral or the Loan Documents, and all costs and expenses incurred by Agent and/or Lenders in protecting its interests hereunder in such an event (including all court costs and attorneys’ fees) shall be borne by Grantor and secured hereby, except to the extent the same are caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Agent or any Lender, as applicable.
Section 3.15 [Intentionally Omitted].
Section 3.16 No Conflicts, Etc.

Condemnation
Section 4.1 Condemnation.
(a) Taking. If all or any portion of the Collateral is taken by condemnation or eminent domain powers of any Governmental Authority (or any transfer by private sale in lieu thereof), either temporarily or permanently, then, if any Event of Default then exists or the award and other proceeds payable in connection therewith exceeds $5,000,000 (a “Major Taking”), then such amount shall be paid to Agent and applied to payment of the Obligations after deducting any costs (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by Agent in connection therewith, or otherwise applied as provided in Section 11.4 of the Credit Agreement.
(b) Participation in Proceedings. Grantor shall promptly notify Agent of any actual or threatened initiation of any condemnation or eminent domain proceeding as to any part of the Collateral and, upon Agent’s request, shall promptly deliver to Agent copies of any and all papers served or received in connection with such proceedings.

Grantor shall execute such documents and take such other steps as required to permit such participation.
(c) Right to Settle Claims. Agent is hereby authorized, at any time that an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, to adjust, compromise and collect any condemnation or eminent domain award or settle a claim for damages and to apply the same to the Obligations in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Loan Documents.
(d) Use of Proceeds. Grantor hereby assigns to Agent for the benefit of Lenders any proceeds or awards which may become due by reason of any condemnation or other taking for public use of the whole or any part of the Collateral or any rights appurtenant thereto, and Agent is authorized, at its option, to collect and receive all such compensation, awards or damages in respect of a Major Taking or otherwise when any Event of Default exists and to give proper receipts and acquittances therefor without any obligation to question the amount of any such compensation, awards or damages.

ARTICLE VI
Remedies
Section 6.1 Remedies. If an Event of Default exists, Agent may, and at the direction of the Requisite Lenders shall, exercise any or all of the following rights, remedies and recourses:
(a) Termination of License. (i) Terminate the License granted to Grantor in Section 8.3 hereof and exercise the rights, powers and privileges of landlord under the Leases, and then and thereafter, with or without taking possession of the Collateral, in Grantor’s own name or in the name of Agent, demand, collect, receive, sue for, attach and levy on the Rents (including demand for Rents collected for the period in which the demand occurs) and give proper receipts, releases and acquittances therefor.
(ii) Deliver a written demand to any Tenant for payment of Rents, which demand shall be sufficient evidence of each such Tenant’s obligation and authority to make all future payments of Rents to Agent without the necessity for further consent by the Grantor. Grantor, for itself and its agents, covenants and agrees not to countermand any such written demand to Tenants for payment of Rents.
(b) Entry on Collateral. (i) Demand that Grantor, and upon such demand Grantor shall, forthwith surrender to Agent the actual possession of the Collateral, and to the extent not prohibited by Applicable Law, enter and take possession of all of the Collateral without the appointment of a receiver, or an application therefor, and exclude Grantor and its agents and employees wholly therefrom, and have joint access with Grantor to the books, papers and accounts of Grantor.
(ii) If Grantor shall for any reason fail to surrender or deliver the Collateral or any part thereof after such demand by Agent, Agent may seek a judgment or decree conferring upon Agent the right to immediate possession or requiring Grantor to deliver immediate possession of the Collateral to Agent, and Grantor hereby specifically covenants and agrees that Grantor shall not oppose, contest or otherwise hinder or delay Agent in any action or proceeding by Agent to obtain such judgment or decree. Grantor shall pay to Agent, upon demand, all expenses of obtaining such judgment or decree, including reasonable compensation to Agent, its attorneys and agents, and all such expenses and compensation shall, until paid, become part of the Obligations and shall be secured by this Security Instrument.

 

-16-


 

(iii) Upon every such entering on or taking of possession, Agent may hold, store, use, operate, manage and control the Collateral and conduct the business thereof, and, from time to time, (A) make all necessary and proper maintenance, repairs, renewals, replacements, additions, betterments and improvements thereto and thereon and purchase or otherwise acquire additional fixtures, personalty and other property, (B) insure or keep the Collateral insured, (C) manage and operate the Collateral and exercise all the rights and powers of Grantor to the same extent as Grantor could in its own name or otherwise act with respect to the same, and (D) enter into any and all agreements with respect to the exercise by others of any of the powers herein granted to Agent, all as Agent from time to time may determine to be in its best interest. Anything in this Security Instrument to the contrary notwithstanding, neither Agent nor any Lender shall be obligated to discharge or perform the duties of the landlord to any Tenant or incur any liability as the result of any exercise by Agent of its rights under this Security Instrument, and Agent shall be liable to account only for the Rents actually received by Agent.
(iv) Make, modify, enforce, cancel or accept surrender of any Lease, remove and evict any Tenant, increase or decrease Rents under any Lease, appear in and defend any action or proceeding purporting to affect the Collateral, and perform and discharge each and every obligation, covenant and agreement of Grantor contained in any Lease, whether or not Agent takes possession of the Collateral.
(v) Neither the entering upon and taking possession of the Collateral, nor the collection of any Rents and the application thereof as aforesaid, shall cure or waive any Event of Default theretofore or thereafter occurring, or affect any notice of an Event of Default hereunder or invalidate any act done pursuant to any such notice. Neither Agent nor any Lender shall be liable to Grantor, anyone claiming under or through Grantor, or anyone having an interest in the Collateral by reason of anything done or left undone by Agent hereunder. Nothing contained in this subsection (b) shall require Agent to incur any expense or do any act. If the Rents are not sufficient to meet the costs of taking control of and managing the Collateral and/or collecting the Rents, any funds expended by Agent or Lenders for such purposes shall become Obligations of Grantor to Agent or Lenders, as the case may be, secured by this Security Instrument. Such amounts, together with interest at the Post-Default Rate, and attorneys’ fees, if applicable, shall be immediately due and payable. Notwithstanding Agent’s continuance in possession or receipt and application of Rents, Agent shall be entitled to exercise every right provided for in this Security Instrument or by Applicable Law upon or after the occurrence of an Event of Default. Any of the actions referred to in this subsection (b) may be taken by Agent at such time as Agent is so entitled, without regard to the adequacy of any security for the Obligations hereby secured.

(c) Foreclosure and Sale. If the Obligations have been accelerated pursuant to the Credit Agreement, institute an action to foreclose this Security Instrument, or take such other action as may be allowed at law or in equity, for the enforcement hereof and realization on the Collateral or any other security which is herein or elsewhere in the Loan Documents provided for the Collateral or any part thereof at one or more sales before the door of the courthouse of the county in which the Property or any part of the Property is situated, or such other place as is required or permitted by Applicable Law, without notice except as required or set forth herein or otherwise required by Applicable Law, to the highest bidder for cash, or to proceed to final judgment and execution thereon, in order to pay the Obligations, and all expenses of sale and of all proceedings in connection therewith, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, all costs of suit, interest at the Post-Default Rate as provided in the Credit Agreement on any judgment obtained by Agent from and after the date of any sale of the Collateral (which may be sold in one parcel or in such parcels, manner or order as Agent shall elect) until actual payment is made of the full amount due Agent and Lenders, without further stay, any law, usage or custom to the contrary notwithstanding. In the event of any sale pursuant to any order in any judicial proceedings or otherwise, the Collateral may be sold as an entirety or in separate parcels and in such manner or order as Agent in its sole discretion may elect, and if Agent so elects, Agent may sell the Personalty covered by this Security Instrument at one or more separate sales in any manner permitted by the Uniform Commercial Code as adopted in the State of New York, and one or more exercises of the powers herein granted shall not extinguish nor exhaust such powers, until the entire Collateral is sold or the Obligations are paid in full. If the Obligations are now or hereafter further secured by any chattel mortgages, pledges, contracts of guaranty, assignments of lease or other security instruments, Agent may at its option exhaust the remedies granted under any of said security instruments, either concurrently or independently, and in such order as Agent may determine.
Immediately upon the first insertion of any advertisement or notice of any such sale, there shall be and become due and owing from the Grantor all reasonable expenses incident to said advertisement or notice, all court costs and all reasonable expenses incident to any foreclosure proceedings brought under this Security Instrument, including reasonable attorneys’ fees. No party shall be required to receive only the aggregate indebtedness then secured hereby with the interest thereon to the date of payment unless the same shall be accompanied by a tender of the said expenses, costs and commissions.
Agent, may, in addition to and not in abrogation of the rights covered under the immediately preceding subparagraph, or elsewhere in this Article VI, either with or without entry or taking possession as herein provided or otherwise, proceed by a suit or suits in law or in equity or by any other appropriate proceeding or remedy (i) to enforce payment of the Obligations or the performance of any term, covenant, condition or agreement of this Security Instrument or any other right and (ii) to pursue any other remedy available to it, all as Agent at its sole discretion shall elect.
(d) Receiver. Agent, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, upon application to a court of competent jurisdiction, shall be entitled as a matter of strict right, without notice and without regard to the adequacy or value of any security for the Obligations or the solvency of any party bound for its payment, to the appointment of a receiver to take possession of and to operate the Collateral and to collect and apply the incomes, rents, issues, profits and revenues thereof. The receiver shall have all of the rights and powers permitted under the laws of the State of Florida. Grantor shall pay to Agent upon demand all expenses, including receiver’s fees, attorneys’ fees, costs and agent’s compensation, incurred pursuant to the provisions of this subsection, and any such amounts paid by Agent shall be added to the Obligations and shall be secured by this Security Instrument.

Agent shall be the sole judge of the necessity for any such actions and of the amounts to be paid Agent is hereby empowered to enter and to authorize others to enter upon the Collateral or any part thereof for the purpose of performing or observing any such defaulted term, covenant or condition without thereby becoming liable to Grantor or any person in possession holding under Grantor.
(f) Relief From Automatic Stay. If Grantor is the subject of any insolvency, bankruptcy, receivership, dissolution, reorganization, or similar proceeding, federal or state, voluntary or involuntary, under any present or future Applicable Law, Agent shall be entitled to relief from the automatic stay as to the enforcement of its remedies under the Loan Documents against the Collateral, including specifically, but not limited to, the stay imposed by 11 U.S.C. Section 362, as amended, and Grantor hereby consents to the immediate lifting of any such automatic stay and will not contest any motion by Agent to lift such stay.
(g) Other. Exercise any and all other rights, remedies and recourses granted under this Security Instrument (including, without limitation, those set forth in Articles VII, VIII and IX hereinbelow) or now or hereafter existing in equity, at law, by virtue of statute or otherwise.

Section 6.3 Remedies Cumulative, Concurrent and Non-Exclusive. Agent and Lenders shall have all rights, remedies and recourses granted in this Security Instrument and available under Applicable Law (including specifically those granted by the Uniform Commercial Code in effect and applicable to the Collateral or any portion thereof), and if such Event of Default also constitutes an Event of Default under the Credit Agreement, all rights, remedies and recourses granted in the Loan Documents and available under Applicable Law.

Section 6.5 Release of and Resort to Collateral. Agent may release, regardless of consideration, any part of the Collateral without, as to the remainder of the Collateral, in any way impairing, affecting, subordinating or releasing any of the Liens created or evidenced by any of the Loan Documents or their position as a first and prior Lien in and to the Collateral (as defined in the Credit Agreement).

Section 6.9 Leases. Agent, at its option, is authorized to foreclose this Security Instrument subject to the rights of any Tenants of the Collateral under any Leases, and the failure to make any Tenants parties to any such foreclosure proceedings and to foreclose their rights shall not be, nor be asserted to be by Grantor, a defense to any proceedings instituted by Agent to collect the Obligations.

Agent shall have the power to institute and maintain such suits and proceedings as it may deem expedient (a) to prevent any impairment of the Collateral by any acts which may be unlawful or constitute an Event of Default under this Security Instrument, (b) to preserve or protect its interest in the Collateral and in the Leases and Rents arising therefrom, and (c) to restrain the enforcement of or compliance with any legislation or other governmental enactment, rule or order that may be unconstitutional or otherwise invalid, if the enforcement of or compliance with such enactment rule or order would impair the security hereunder or be prejudicial to the interest of Agent. In such event, Grantor shall, at the request of the Agent, promptly pay any amount reasonably expended by the Agent in such performance or attempted performance to the Agent, together with interest thereon at the applicable Post-Default Rate from the date of such expenditure until paid.
Section 6.13 Proofs of Claim. In the case of any receivership, insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other proceedings affecting Grantor, its creditors or its property, Agent, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, shall be entitled to file such proofs of claim and other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of Agent allowed in such proceedings for the entire amount of the Obligations at the date of the institution of such proceedings and for any additional amount of the Obligations after such date.
Section 6.14 Occupancy After Foreclosure. The purchaser at any foreclosure sale pursuant to Section 6.1(c) shall become the legal owner of the Collateral or the portion thereof foreclosed. All occupants (except those which have previously executed a prior written agreement with purchaser) of the Collateral or any part thereof shall become tenants at sufferance of the purchaser at the foreclosure sale and shall deliver possession thereof immediately to the purchaser upon demand, subject to the rights, if any, of Tenants.

ARTICLE VII
Security Agreement
Section 7.1 Security Interest. This Security Instrument shall also constitute and serve as a security agreement on personal property within the meaning of under the Uniform Commercial Code as enacted in New York with respect to the Personalty, Fixtures, Leases and Rents. To this end, Grantor has GRANTED, BARGAINED, CONVEYED, ASSIGNED, TRANSFERRED and SET OVER, and by these presents, does GRANT, BARGAIN, CONVEY, ASSIGN, TRANSFER and SET OVER, to Agent for the benefit of the Lenders a security interest in all of Grantor’s right, title and interest in, to, under and with respect to the Personalty, Fixtures, Leases and Rents now owned or hereafter owned or acquired, in each case, to the extent not constituting Excluded Property, to secure the full and timely payment, performance and discharge of the Obligations. It is the intent of Grantor, Agent and Lenders that this Security Instrument encumber all Leases and Rents, in each case, to the extent not constituting Excluded Property, that all items contained in the definition of “Leases” and “Rents” which are included within Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code as adopted in New York be covered by the security interest granted in this Article VII and that all items contained in the definition of “Leases” and “Rents” which are excluded from Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code as adopted in New York be covered by the provisions of Article II and Article VIII hereof.

Section 7.2 Financing Statements. Grantor hereby authorizes Agent to file such Financing Statements and such further assurances as Agent may, from time to time, reasonably consider necessary to create, perfect and preserve Agent’s security interest herein granted, and Agent may cause such statements and assurances to be recorded and filed, at such times and places as may be required or permitted by law, to so create, perfect and preserve such security interest.
Section 7.3 Uniform Commercial Code Remedies. Agent shall have all the rights and remedies with respect to the Personalty, Fixtures, Leases and Rents afforded to a “secured party” by the Uniform Commercial Code as adopted in New York as to property within the scope thereof, in addition to, and not in limitation of, the other rights and remedies afforded by the Loan Documents.
Section 7.4 Foreclosure of Security Interest. If an Event of Default exists, Agent may elect, in addition to exercising any and all other rights and remedies set forth in Article VI or referred to in Section 7.3 or Article VII hereof, to proceed in the manner set forth in Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code as adopted in New York, relating to the procedure to be followed when a Security Agreement covers both real and personal property.
Section 7.5 No Obligation of Secured Party. The assignment and security interest herein granted shall not be deemed or construed to constitute Agent or any Lender as a trustee or mortgagee in possession of the Collateral, to obligate Agent or any Lender to lease the Collateral or attempt to do same, or to take any action, incur any expense or perform or discharge any obligation, duty or liability whatsoever under any of the Leases or otherwise.
Section 7.6 Information for Fixture Filing. This Security Instrument is also being filed as a fixture filing with respect to the portions of the Collateral that are or are to become fixtures relating to the Property or Improvements. Grantor’s exact legal name, type of legal entity and jurisdiction of formation are as set forth in the first paragraph of this Security Deed. Grantor’s organizational identification number is 2345191. Grantor hereby represents to Agent and Lenders that, during the past five years prior to the date hereof, Grantor has not changed its name or merged with or otherwise combined its business with any Person; provided, however, Grantor has converted from a limited partnership. Without giving Agent at least 30-days’ prior written notice and to the extent such action is not otherwise prohibited by any of the Loan Documents, Grantor shall not (a) change its name; (b) reorganize or otherwise become formed under the laws of another jurisdiction or (c) become bound by a security agreement (other than a Loan Document) of another Person under Section 9-203(d) of the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in any applicable jurisdiction. The information contained in this Section is provided in connection with the requirements of the Uniform Commercial Code so that this Security Instrument shall serve as a financing statement.

ARTICLE VIII
Assignment of Leases and Rents
Section 8.1 Assignment. For and in consideration of ONE DOLLAR ($1.00), and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, and in order to secure the full and timely payment of the Obligations and the full and timely performance and discharge of the Obligations, Grantor has GRANTED, BARGAINED, SOLD, CONVEYED, ASSIGNED, TRANSFERRED, SET OVER and DELIVERED, and by these presents does hereby GRANT, BARGAIN, SELL, CONVEY, ASSIGN, TRANSFER, SET OVER and DELIVER absolutely unto Agent for the benefit of the Lenders the Leases (whether now existing or entered into after the date hereof) and the Rents, subject only to the hereinafter described License, TO HAVE AND TO HOLD the Leases and the Rents unto Agent, its successors and assigns, for the benefit of the Lenders forever, and Grantor does hereby bind itself, its successors and assigns to WARRANT and FOREVER DEFEND the title to the Leases and the Rents unto Agent against every Person whomsoever lawfully claiming or to claim the same or any part thereof, in each case, other than the Boucher Brothers Agreement, but only to the extent, and for so long as, Grantor’s right to assign the Boucher Brothers Agreement is prohibited pursuant to the terms thereof or such prohibition is rendered unenforceable or otherwise deemed ineffective by the Uniform Commercial Code or any other Applicable Law. If an Event of Default exists, Agent shall have the right power and privilege (but shall be under no duty) to demand possession of the Rents, which demand shall, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, be sufficient action by Agent to entitle Agent to immediate and direct payment of the Rents (including delivery to Agent of Rents collected for the period in which the demand occurs and for any subsequent period), for application as provided herein, all without the necessity of any further action by Agent including, without limitation, any action to obtain possession of the Improvements or the Property. Grantor hereby authorizes and directs the Tenants under the Leases to pay Rents to Agent upon written demand by Agent accompanied by a notice from the Agent of the occurrence of an Event of Default, without further consent of Grantor, without any obligation on the part of any Tenant to determine whether an Event of Default has in fact occurred and regardless of whether Agent has taken possession of any portion of the Property, and the Tenants may rely upon any written statement delivered by Agent to the Tenants. Any such payment to Agent shall constitute payment to Grantor under the Leases, and Grantor hereby appoints Agent as Grantor’s lawful attorney-in-fact for giving, and Agent is hereby empowered to give, acquittances to any Tenants for such payments to Agent after a default.

 

-24-


 

Section 8.2 Intentionally Omitted.
Section 8.3 Limited License. Provided that there exists no Event of Default, Grantor shall have the right under a limited license granted hereby, and Agent hereby grants to Grantor a limited license (the “License”), to collect, all of the Rents arising from or out of the Leases, or any renewals or extensions thereof, or from or out of the Collateral or any part thereof.
Section 8.4 Grantor’s Indemnities. Grantor hereby agrees to indemnify and hold Agent and Lenders free and harmless from and against any and all liability, loss, cost, damage or expense which Agent and/or Lenders may incur under or by reason of this assignment, or for any action taken by the Agent hereunder, or by reason or in defense of any and all claims and demands whatsoever which may be asserted against Agent and/or Lenders arising out of the Leases (except to the extent caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Agent or any Lender), including specifically, but without limitation, any claim by any Tenant of credit for Rents paid to and received by Grantor, but not delivered to Agent, for any period under any Lease more than 1 month in advance of the due date thereof. If Agent or any Lender incurs any such liability, loss, cost, damage or expense, the amount thereof, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, with interest thereon at the Post-Default Rate, shall be payable by Grantor to Agent immediately, without demand, and shall be secured hereby and by all other Loan Documents.
Section 8.5 Appointment of Attorney-in-Fact. Grantor hereby further constitutes and appoints Agent the true and lawful attorney-in-fact of the Grantor, and in the name, place and stead of said Grantor, to subject and subordinate at any time and from time to time any Lease or any part thereof to the lien and security interest of the Security Instrument or any other mortgage, security deed, deed of trust or security agreement on or to any ground lease of the Collateral, or to request or require such subordination, where such reservation, option or authority was reserved to the Grantor under any such Lease, or in any case where the Grantor otherwise would have the right, power or privilege so to do. The foregoing appointment is irrevocable and continuing and coupled with an interest, and such rights, powers and privileges shall be exclusive in Agent and its successors and assigns so long as any part of the Obligations secured hereby remains unpaid and undischarged. Grantor hereby warrants that Grantor has not at any time prior to the date hereof exercised any such rights, and Grantor hereby covenants not to exercise any such right, to subordinate any such Lease to the lien of this Security Instrument or to any other security deed, mortgage, deed of trust or security agreement or to any ground lease.
Section 8.6 Exculpation of Agent. The acceptance by Agent of this assignment of the Leases and Rents, with all of the rights, powers, privileges and authority created hereby shall not, prior to entry upon and taking possession of the Collateral by Agent, be deemed or construed to constitute Agent a “mortgagee in possession”, nor thereafter or at any time or in any event obligate the Agent to appear in or defend any action or proceeding relating to the Leases, the Rents or the Collateral or to take any action hereunder or to expend any money or incur any expenses or perform or discharge any obligation, duty or liability under any Lease or to assume any obligation or responsibility for any security deposits or other deposits delivered to Grantor by any Tenant and not assigned and delivered to Agent, nor shall Agent be liable in any way for any injury or damage to persons or property sustained by any person or persons, firm or corporation in or about the Collateral.
Section 8.7 [Intentionally Omitted].

ARTICLE IX
Miscellaneous
Section 9.1 Performance at Grantor’s Expense. Grantor shall pay to Agent and Lenders immediately upon demand all costs and expenses incurred by Agent and Lenders in connection herewith as provided in Section 13.2 of the Credit Agreement, and the same shall be secured hereby. For all purposes of this Security Instrument, Agent’s reasonable and documented costs and expenses shall include, without limitation, all appraisal and re-appraisal fees (in each case, subject to the limitations provided in Section 13.2 of the Credit Agreement as well as the other applicable limitations set forth in the Credit Agreement in respect of appraisals), reasonable and documented out-of-pocket legal fees (including, without limitation, fees for trial, appeal or other proceedings), accounting fees, environmental consultant fees (if any), auditor fees, and the cost to Agent of any documentary taxes, recording fees, brokerage fees, title search fees, title insurance premiums and title surveys (including any such title related fees and premiums incurred in connection with title updates). In addition, Grantor recognizes and agrees that formal written appraisals of the Collateral by a licensed independent appraiser may be required by federal regulatory reporting requirements on an annual or specialized basis, which shall be at Grantor’s expense.
Section 9.2 Survival of Obligations. Each and all of the Obligations shall survive the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby, and shall continue in full force and effect until the Obligations shall have been paid and performed in full as provided in Section 13.9 of the Credit Agreement; provided however, that nothing contained in this Section shall limit the obligations of Grantor as set forth in Section 3.14 and 8.4 herein.
Section 9.3 Recording and Filing. Grantor shall cause the Loan Documents and all amendments and supplements thereto and substitutions therefor to be recorded, filed, re-recorded and refiled in such manner and in such places as Agent shall reasonably request and shall pay all such recording, filing, re-recording and refiling taxes, fees and other charges.
Section 9.4 Notices. All notices or other communications required or permitted to be given pursuant to this Security Instrument shall be made and delivered as provided in Section 13.1 of the Credit Agreement.
Section 9.5 No Waiver. Any failure by Agent or Lenders to insist, or any election by Agent or Lenders not to insist, upon strict performance by Grantor of any of the terms, provisions or conditions of this Security Instrument shall not be deemed to be a waiver of same or of any other term, provision or condition hereof, and Agent and Lenders shall have the right at any time or times thereafter to insist upon strict performance by Grantor of any and all such terms, provisions and conditions. No delay or omission by Agent or Lenders to exercise any right, power or remedy accruing upon any breach or Event of Default shall exhaust or impair any such right, power or remedy or shall be construed to be a waiver of any such breach or Event of Default, or acquiescence therein, and every right, power and remedy given by this Security Instrument to Agent or Lenders may be exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient by Agent or Lenders. No consent or waiver, expressed or implied, by Agent or Lenders to or of any breach or Event of Default by Grantor in the performance of the Obligations of Grantor or to any other Event of Default shall be deemed or construed to be a consent or waiver to or of any other breach or Event of Default in the performance of the same or any other Obligations of Grantor. Failure on the part of Agent to complain of any act or failure to act or to declare an Event of Default, irrespective of how long such failure continues, shall not constitute a waiver of rights hereunder or impair any rights, powers, or remedies of Agent or Lenders hereunder.

 

-26-


 

No act or omission by Agent or Lenders shall release, discharge, modify, change or otherwise affect the liability of Grantor under this Security Instrument or any of the other Loan Documents to which it is a party or in respect of any Obligations of Grantor or the liability of any subsequent purchaser of the Collateral or any part thereof, or any maker, cosigner, endorser, surety or guarantor, or preclude Agent or Lenders from exercising any right, power or privilege herein granted or intended to be granted in the event of any Event of Default then made or by any subsequent Event of Default, or alter the Lien of this Security Instrument. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Agent and Lenders may:
(a) grant forbearance or an extension of time for the payment of all or any portion of the Obligations;
(b) take other or additional security for the payment of the Obligations;
(c) waive or fail to exercise any right granted hereunder or in the Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents;
(d) change any of the terms, covenants, conditions or agreements of the Credit Agreement, this Security Instrument, or the other Loan Documents;
(e) consent to the filing of any map, plat or replat affecting the Collateral;

all without releasing, discharging, modifying, changing or affecting any such liability, or precluding Agent or Lenders from exercising any such right, power or privilege, or affecting the Lien of this Security Instrument. In the event of the sale or transfer by operation of law or otherwise of all or any part of the Collateral, Agent, without notice, is hereby authorized and empowered to deal with any such vendee or transferee with reference to the Collateral or the Obligations, or with reference to any of the terms, covenants, conditions or agreements hereof, as fully and to the same extent as it might deal with the original parties hereto and without in any way releasing or discharging any liabilities, Obligations or undertakings.

 

-27-


 

Section 9.6 Agent’s Right to Perform the Obligations. If Grantor shall fail, refuse or neglect to make any payment or perform any act required by the Loan Documents after the expiration of relevant notice and cure periods, then at any time thereafter, and without notice to or demand upon Grantor and without waiving or releasing any other right, remedy or recourse Agent may have because of same, Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) make such payment or perform such act for the account of and at the expense of Grantor, and shall have the right to enter the Property and Improvements for such purpose and to take all such action thereon and with respect to the Collateral as it may deem necessary or appropriate. If Agent shall elect to pay any Imposition or other sums due with reference to the Collateral, Agent may do so in reliance on any bill, statement or assessment procured from the appropriate Governmental Authority or other issuer thereof without inquiring into the accuracy or validity thereof. Similarly, in making any payments to protect the security intended to be created by the Loan Documents, Agent shall not be bound to inquire into the validity of any apparent or threatened adverse title, lien, encumbrance, claim or charge before making an advance for the purpose of preventing or removing the same. Grantor shall indemnify Agent and Lenders for all losses, expenses, damages, claims and causes of action, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred or accruing by reason of any acts performed by Agent pursuant to the provisions of this Section or by reason of any other provision in the Loan Documents. All sums paid by Agent or Lenders pursuant to this Section, and all other sums expended by Agent or Lenders to which they shall be entitled to be indemnified, together with interest thereon at the Post-Default Rate from the date of such payment or expenditure, shall constitute additions to the Obligations, shall be secured by the Liens created by the Loan Documents and shall be paid by Grantor to Agent upon demand.
Section 9.7 Covenants Running with the Land. All Obligations contained in the Loan Documents are intended by the parties to be, and shall be construed as, covenants running with the Property.
Section 9.8 Successors and Assigns. Subject to Section 13.5 of the Credit Agreement, all of the terms of this Security Instrument shall apply to, be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties thereto, their successors, assigns, heirs and legal representatives, and all other Persons claiming by, through or under them.
Section 9.9 Severability. This Security Instrument is intended to be performed in accordance with, and only to the extent permitted by, all applicable Legal Requirements. If any provision of this Security Instrument or the application thereof to any Person or circumstance shall, for any reason and to any extent, be invalid or unenforceable, then neither the remainder of the instrument in which such provision is contained nor the application of such provision to other Persons or circumstances nor the other instruments referred to hereinabove shall be affected thereby, but rather, shall be enforced to the greatest extent permitted by Applicable Law.

 

-28-


 

Section 9.10 Modification. This Security Instrument may not be amended, revised, waived, discharged, released or terminated orally, but only by a written instrument or instruments as provided in Section 13.6 of the Credit Agreement.
Section 9.11 Assignment. This Security Instrument is assignable by Agent and any assignment hereof by Agent shall operate to vest in the assignee all rights and powers herein conferred upon and granted to Agent.
Section 9.12 [Intentionally Omitted].
Section 9.13 Counterparts. This Security Instrument may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, but all of which together shall constitute but one instrument.
Section 9.14 APPLICABLE LAW. THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SECURITY INSTRUMENT REGARDING THE CREATION, PERFECTION AND ENFORCEMENT OF THE LIENS AND SECURITY INTERESTS HEREIN GRANTED SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF FLORIDA. ALL OTHER PROVISIONS OF THIS SECURITY INSTRUMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, SECTION 5-1401 OF THE GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK), WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICTS OF LAWS PRINCIPLES.
Section 9.15 Subrogation. If any or all of the proceeds of the Obligations have been used to extinguish, extend or renew any obligations heretofore existing against the Collateral, then, to the extent of such funds so used, the obligations secured hereby shall be subrogated to all of the rights, claims, liens, titles and interests heretofore existing against the Collateral to secure the indebtedness so extinguished, extended or renewed, and the former rights, claims, liens, titles and interests, if any, are not waived, but rather, are continued in full force and effect in favor of Agent and are merged with the lien or security title and interest created herein as cumulative security for the repayment and the satisfaction of the Obligations.
Section 9.16 Headings. Titles and captions of Articles, Sections, subsections and clauses in this Security Instrument are for convenience only, and neither limit nor amplify the provisions of this Security Instrument.
Section 9.17 Conflict. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the event of a conflict between this Security Instrument and the Credit Agreement, the Credit Agreement shall govern.

Section 9.18 CONSENT TO JURISDICTION AND SERVICE OF PROCESS; WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. (a) TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING WITH RESPECT TO THIS SECURITY INSTRUMENT MAY BE BROUGHT IN THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK OR OF THE UNITED STATES FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK, IN EACH CASE WHICH ARE LOCATED IN THE COUNTY OF NEW YORK, OR THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF FLORIDA AND, BY EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF THIS SECURITY INSTRUMENT, THE GRANTOR HEREBY IRREVOCABLY ACCEPTS FOR ITSELF AND IN RESPECT OF ITS PROPERTY, GENERALLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY, THE NON-EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE AFORESAID COURTS. THE GRANTOR HEREBY FURTHER IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY CLAIM THAT ANY SUCH COURTS LACK JURISDICTION OVER THE GRANTOR, AND AGREES NOT TO PLEAD OR CLAIM, IN ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING WITH RESPECT TO THIS SECURITY INSTRUMENT BROUGHT IN ANY OF THE AFORESAID COURTS THAT ANY SUCH COURT LACKS JURISDICTION OVER THE GRANTOR. THE GRANTOR FURTHER IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO THE SERVICE OF PROCESS OUT OF ANY OF THE AFOREMENTIONED COURTS IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING BY THE MAILING OF COPIES THEREOF BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL, POSTAGE PREPAID, TO THE GRANTOR AT ITS ADDRESS FOR NOTICES PURSUANT TO SECTION 9.4 HEREOF, SUCH SERVICE TO BECOME EFFECTIVE 30 DAYS AFTER SUCH MAILING. THE GRANTOR HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION TO SUCH SERVICE OF PROCESS AND FURTHER IRREVOCABLY WAIVES AND AGREES NOT TO PLEAD OR CLAIM IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING COMMENCED HEREUNDER THAT SUCH SERVICE OF PROCESS WAS IN ANY WAY INVALID OR INEFFECTIVE. NOTHING HEREIN SHALL AFFECT THE RIGHT OF THE MORTGAGEE, OR ANY LENDER, TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW OR TO COMMENCE LEGAL PROCEEDINGS OR OTHERWISE PROCEED AGAINST THE GRANTOR IN ANY OTHER JURISDICTION.
(b) THE GRANTOR HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION WHICH IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY OF THE AFORESAID ACTIONS OR PROCEEDINGS ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS SECURITY INSTRUMENT BROUGHT IN THE COURTS REFERRED TO IN CLAUSE (a) ABOVE AND HEREBY FURTHER IRREVOCABLY, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, WAIVES AND AGREES NOT TO PLEAD OR CLAIM IN ANY SUCH COURT THAT ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN ANY SUCH COURT HAS BEEN BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT FORUM.
(c) GRANTOR HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE, RELATING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY TO THE OBLIGATIONS, THE CREDIT AGREEMENT, THE NOTE OR THIS SECURITY INSTRUMENT OR ANY ACTS OR OMISSIONS OF AGENT, LENDERS, THEIR OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, DIRECTORS OR AGENTS IN CONNECTION THEREWITH.

Section 9.19 Limitation on Interest. It is the intent of the Grantor and the Mortgagee in the execution of this Security Instrument and all other instruments evidencing or securing the Obligations to contract in strict compliance with applicable usury laws. In furtherance thereof, the Mortgagee and the Grantor stipulate and agree that none of the terms and provisions contained in this Security Instrument shall ever be construed to create a contract for the use, forbearance or retention of money requiring payment of interest at a rate in excess of the maximum interest rate permitted to be charged by relevant law. If this Security Instrument or any other instrument evidencing or securing the Obligations violates any applicable usury law, then the interest rate payable in respect of the Loans or the Post-Default Rate, as applicable, shall be the highest rate permissible by law.
Section 9.20 Further Assurances. The Grantor shall, upon the request of the Mortgagee and at the expense of the Grantor: (a) promptly correct any defect, error or omission which may be discovered in this Security Instrument or any UCC financing statements filed in connection herewith; (b) promptly execute, acknowledge, deliver and record or file such further instruments (including, without limitation, further mortgages, deeds of trust, security deeds, security agreements, financing statements, continuation statements and assignments of rents or leases) and promptly do such further acts as may be necessary, desirable or proper to carry out more effectively the purposes of this Security Instrument and to subject to the Liens and security interests hereof any property intended by the terms hereof to be encumbered hereby, including, but not limited to, any renewals, additions, substitutions, replacements or appurtenances to the Collateral; and (c) promptly execute, acknowledge, deliver, procure and record or file any document or instrument (including specifically any financing statement) deemed advisable by the Mortgagee to protect, continue or perfect the Liens or the security interests hereunder against the rights or interests of third Persons.
Section 9.21 Future Advances. This Security Instrument is given to secure the Obligations under, or in respect of, the Loan Documents and shall secure not only obligations with respect to presently existing indebtedness under the foregoing documents and agreements but also any and all other indebtedness which may hereafter be owing to the Lenders and/or the Mortgagee under the Loan Documents, however incurred, whether interest, discount or otherwise, and whether the same shall be deferred, accrued or capitalized, including future advances and re-advances, pursuant to the Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents, whether such advances are obligatory or to be made at the option of the Lenders and/or the Agent, or otherwise, to the same extent as if such future advances were made on the date of the execution of this Security Instrument. The Lien of this Security Instrument shall be valid as to all indebtedness secured hereby, including future advances, from the time of its filing for record in the recorder’s office of the county in which the Collateral is located. This Security Instrument is intended to and shall be valid and have priority over all subsequent Liens and encumbrances, including statutory Liens, excepting solely taxes and assessments levied on the real estate, to the extent of the maximum amount secured hereby, and Permitted Encumbrances related thereto. Although this Security Instrument is given to secure all future advances made by the Mortgagee and/or the Lender to or for the benefit of the MG Borrower, the Grantor and/or the Collateral, whether obligatory or optional, the Grantor and the Mortgagee hereby acknowledge and agree that the Mortgagee and the Lenders are obligated by the terms of the Loan Documents to make certain future advances, including advances of a revolving nature, subject to the fulfillment of the relevant conditions set forth in the Loan Documents.
