and fully perform, discharge, execute, effect, complete and comply with and
abide by each and every one of the agreements, conditions and covenants of the

evidences an indebtedness arising from a business loan from Lender to Borrower
for the sole purpose of permitting Borrower to carry on its business) in the
aggregate principal face amount of Four Million One Hundred Thousand and No/100

indebtedness evidenced by the Note, together with all interest thereon, in
accordance with the terms of the Note, promptly at the times, at the place and
in the manner that said principal and interest shall become due, and to promptly

Real Property in good order and repair and not to do or permit any waste,
impairment or deterioration thereof or thereon, nor to alter, remove or demolish
any of the Improvements or any Fixtures or Personal Property attached or
appertaining thereto, without the prior written consent of the Lender, nor to
initiate, join in or consent to any change in any private restrictive covenant,
zoning ordinance or other public or private restrictions limiting or defining
the uses which may be made of the Property or any part thereof, nor to do or
permit any other act whereby the Property shall become less valuable, be used
for purposes contrary to applicable law or be used in any manner which will
increase the premium for or result in a termination or cancellation of the
insurance hereinafter required to be kept and maintained on the Property. In
furtherance of, and not by way of limitation upon the foregoing covenant,
Borrower shall effect such repairs as the Lender may reasonably require, and
from time to time make all needful and proper replacements so that said
Improvements, Appurtenances, Fixtures and Personal Property will, at all times,
be in good condition, fit and proper for the respective purposes for which they
were originally erected or installed.
(b) Borrower at all times shall maintain the Property in full compliance
with all federal, state or municipal laws, ordinances, rules and regulations

Property free of "Hazardous Materials" (as hereinafter defined). Borrower shall
not permit its tenants or any third party requiring the consent of Borrower to
enter the Property, to use, generate, manufacture, store, release, threaten
release, or dispose of Hazardous Materials in, on or about the Property or the
ground water of the Property in violation of any federal, state or municipal
law, decision, statute, rule, ordinance or regulation currently in evidence or
hereinafter enacted or rendered ("Hazardous Waste Laws"). Borrower shall give
Lender prompt written notice of any claim by any person, entity, or governmental
agency that a significant release or disposal of Hazardous Materials has
occurred on the Property. The Borrower, through its professional engineers and
at its cost, shall promptly and thoroughly investigate suspected Hazardous
Materials contamination of the Property. Borrower shall forthwith remove,
repair, clean up, and/or detoxify any Hazardous Materials from the Property or
the ground water of the Property whether or not such actions are required by
law, and whether or not Borrower was responsible for the existence of the
Hazardous Materials in, on or about the Property or the ground water of the
Property. "Hazardous Materials" shall include but not be limited to substances
defined as "hazardous substances," "hazardous materials," or "toxic substances,"
in the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of
1980, as amended, 42 U.S.C. Sec. 9601, et. seq.; the Hazardous Materials
Transportation Act, 49 U.S.C. 1801 et. seq.; the Resources Conservation and
Recovery Act, 42 U.S.C. Sec. 6901 et. seq.; the Toxic Substances Control Act, 15
U.S.C. Sec. 2601 et. seq.; the Clean Air Act, 42 U.S.C. Sec. 7401 et. seq.; and
the Clean Water Act, 33 U.S.C. Sec. 1251 et. seq. Specifically, and without
limitation, the term "Hazardous Materials" shall also include, but not be
limited to, petroleum, petroleum products, petroleum by-products, petroleum
components, the breakdown components of petroleum resulting from degradation of
petroleum in the environment, gasoline, diesel fuel, lubricating oils, motor
oil, mineral spirits, kerosene, or any other petroleum based product, and any
compound, element, additive or other material which is added to or combined with
petroleum in any form to create gasoline, diesel fuel, lubricating oils, motor
oil, mineral spirits, kerosene, or any other petroleum based product.
(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of subparagraph (c), Borrower
has made Lender aware of a certain release or releases on or under the Real
Property of petroleum, petroleum products, petroleum by-products, and/or the
components of petroleum products that originated at, on or beneath the property
known as Fina Site #6706 located at ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇
▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ (such release or releases, and the extent thereof, as disclosed
to and known by Lender as of the date hereof being hereafter referred to as the
"Fina Release"). By acceptance hereof, Lender agrees that Borrower shall not be
in default of the first, second or third sentences of subparagraph (c) as a
result of the Fina Release. Furthermore, by
- 4 -
5
acceptance hereof Lender agrees that, except as provided in the last two
sentences of this subparagraph (d), Borrower shall not be required to further
investigate the Fina Release pursuant to the fourth sentence of subparagraph (c)
unless Lender obtains any additional adverse information concerning the Fina
Release and there is any adverse change in the facts and circumstances in
existence as of the date hereof and of which Lender is aware and Borrower is
then requested to do so in writing by Lender. With respect to the fifth
sentence of subparagraph (c), based upon the information that Lender has as of
the date hereof regarding the Fina Release and based upon all facts and
circumstances (and not just limited to facts and circumstances relating to the
physical condition of the Property and the contamination thereof as a result of
the Fina Release) which exist and of which Lender is aware as of the date hereof
Lender will not require Borrower to remove, repair, clean up and/or detoxify any
Hazardous Materials from the Property or the ground water of the Property
resulting from the Fina Release. However, if, subsequent to the date hereof,
Lender obtains any additional adverse information concerning the Fina Release,
or if there is any adverse change in the facts and circumstances in existence as
of the date hereof and of which Lender is aware, and as a result of such
additional adverse information or such adverse change in facts or circumstances,
Lender determines in its sole discretion to require Borrower to remove, repair,
clean up, and/or detoxify any Hazardous Materials from the Property or the
ground water of the Property resulting from the Fina Release, Lender reserves
the right to require Borrower to do so and Borrower agrees to do so. If
Borrower fails to do so, such failure shall be a Non-Monetary Default (as
defined in Paragraph 23) hereunder. Lender acknowledges that Borrower may file
suit against Fina Oil and Chemical Company and/or its affiliates, successors,
assigns and successors-in-title with regard to the Fina Release and Lender
agrees that such a suit will not constitute an adverse change in facts or
circumstances that would entitle Lender to require Borrower to remove, repair,
clean up and/or detoxify Hazardous Materials from the Property or the ground
water of the Property resulting from the Fina Release. Borrower agrees to keep
itself apprised of steps being taken by Fina Oil and Chemical Company to address
the Fina Release and shall keep Lender informed as to such steps. Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, Borrower specifically agrees to
provide Lender with copies of any and all studies, reports and/or correspondence
that Borrower may receive in connection with the Fina Release. Except as
otherwise provided in this subparagraph (d), Borrower's obligations under
subparagraph (c) and Borrower's other obligations under this paragraph 3 shall
remain in full force and effect with regard to the Fina Release.
(e) Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify Lender and hold Lender harmless
from and against any and all losses, liabilities, damages, injuries, costs,
expenses and claims of any and every kind whatsoever paid, incurred or suffered
by or asserted against Lender for, with respect to, or as a direct or indirect
result of the non-compliance of the Property with the Accessibility Laws and/or
the presence on, under or about the Property, or the escape, seepage, leakage,
spillage, discharge, emission, discharging or release from, the Property of any
Hazardous Materials (including, without limitation, any losses, liabilities,
damages, injuries, costs, expenses or claims asserted or arising under any
Hazardous Waste Laws, regardless of whether or not caused by, or within the
control of, Borrower). Without limiting the foregoing, this agreement to
indemnify Lender and hold Lender harmless shall specifically include any and all
losses, liabilities, damages, injuries, costs, expenses and claims for, with
respect to, or as a direct or indirect result of the Fina Release.
(f) Lender, and/or its agents, shall have the right and shall be
permitted, but shall not be required, at all reasonable times, to enter upon and
inspect the Property to insure compliance with the foregoing covenants and any
and all other covenants, agreements and conditions set forth in this Security
Deed. Liability under this Paragraph of this Security Deed shall extend beyond
repayment of the Note and compliance with the terms of this Security Deed;
provided, however, Borrower shall have no liability under this Paragraph 3 as to
Hazardous Materials: (a) if the Property becomes contaminated subsequent to
Lender's acquisition of the Property by foreclosure, acceptance by Lender of a
deed in lieu thereof, or subsequent to any transfer of ownership of the Property
which was approved or authorized by Lender in writing, provided that such
transferee assumes all obligations of Borrower with respect to Hazardous
Materials pursuant to this Security Deed; or (b) at such time Borrower provides
Lender an environmental assessment report acceptable to Lender showing the
Property to be free of Hazardous Materials and not in violation of Hazardous
Waste Laws. The burden of proof under this Paragraph with
- 5 -
6
regard to establishing the date upon which Hazardous Material was placed or
appeared in, on or under the Property shall be upon Borrower.
4. PAYMENT OF TAXES, ASSESSMENTS AND OTHER CHARGES. To pay all and
singular such taxes, assessments and public charges as are already levied or
assessed or that may be hereafter levied or assessed upon or against the
Property, when the same shall become due and payable according to law, before
the same become delinquent, and before any interest or penalty shall attach
thereto, and to deliver official receipts evidencing the payment of the same to
the Lender not later than thirty (30) days following the payment of the same.
Borrower shall have the right to contest, in good faith, the proposed assessment
of ad valorem taxes or special assessments by governmental authorities having
jurisdiction of the Property; provided, however, the Borrower shall give written
notice thereof to Lender and Lender may, in its sole discretion, require
Borrower to post a bond or other collateral satisfactory to Lender in connection
with any such action by Borrower; provided further, however, that so long as
there is no default hereunder (which is not cured within any applicable cure
period, if any) Lender agrees not to require Borrower to post a bond or other
collateral if (i) Borrower is appealing ad valorem taxes in the normal course of
Borrower's business and (ii) no action is taken to commence foreclosure
procedures on the Property or any portion thereof and (iii) the collateral
pledged to Lender to secure the loan evidenced by the Note and this Security
Deed is not otherwise jeopardized in Lender's sole opinion.
5. PAYMENT OF LIENS, CHARGES AND ENCUMBRANCES. To immediately pay and
discharge from time to time when the same shall become due all lawful claims and
demands of mechanics, materialmen, laborers and others which, if unpaid, might
result in, or permit the creation of, a lien, charge or encumbrance upon the
Property or any part thereof, or on the rents, issues, income, revenues, profits
and proceeds arising therefrom and, in general, to do or cause to be done
everything necessary so that the lien of this Security Deed shall be fully
preserved at the cost of the Borrower, without expense to the Lender. Borrower
shall have the right to contest, in good faith and in accordance with applicable
laws and procedures, mechanic's and materialmen's liens filed against the
Property; provided, however, that Borrower shall give written notice thereof to
Lender, and Lender may at its sole option require Borrower to post a bond or
other collateral satisfactory to Lender (and acceptable to the title company
insuring the Security Deed) in connection with any such action by Borrower.
6. PAYMENT OF JUNIOR ENCUMBRANCES. To permit no default or delinquency
under any other lien, imposition, charge or encumbrance against the Property,
even though junior and inferior to the lien of this Security Deed; provided,
however, the foregoing shall not be construed to permit any other lien or
encumbrance against the Property.
7. PAYMENT OF MORTGAGE TAXES. To pay any and all taxes which may be levied
or assessed directly or indirectly upon the Note and this Security Deed (except
for income taxes payable by the Lender) or the debt secured hereby, without
regard to any law which may be hereafter enacted imposing payment of the whole
or any part thereof upon the Lender, its successors or assigns. Upon violation
of this agreement to pay such taxes levied or assessed upon the Note and this
Security Deed, or upon the rendering by any court of competent jurisdiction of a
decision that such an agreement by the Borrower is legally inoperative, or if
any court of competent jurisdiction shall render a decision that the rate of
said tax when added to the rate of interest provided for in the Note exceeds the
then maximum rate of interest allowed by law, then, and in any such event, the
debt hereby secured shall, at the option of the Lender, its successors or
assigns, become immediately due and payable, anything contained in this Security
Deed or in the Note secured hereby notwithstanding, without the imposition of a
Prepayment Premium (as defined in the Note). The additional amounts which may
become due and payable hereunder shall be part of the debt secured by this
Security Deed.
8. HAZARD INSURANCE. To continuously, during the term hereof, keep the
Improvements and the Fixtures and Personal Property now or hereafter existing,
erected, installed and located in or upon the Real Property insured with
extended coverage insurance against loss or damage resulting from fire,
windstorm, flood (but only if any of the Improvements are located in a flood
plain), sinkhole and such other hazards, casualties, contingencies and perils,
including, without limitation, other risks insured against by persons
- 6 -
7
operating like properties in the locality of the Property, on such forms as may
be required by Lender, covering the Property in the amount of the full
replacement cost thereof (provided that Borrower provides a replacement cost
endorsement satisfactory to Lender; otherwise, the amount of such insurance
shall not be less than the difference between the outstanding balance of the
Note and eighty (80%) percent of the then appraised value of the Land and
Improvements as determined by Lender in its sole discretion), and covering all
loss or abatement of rental or other income without provision for co-insurance
in an amount equal to the scheduled rental income of the Property for a period
of twelve (12) months, or if applicable, business interruption insurance in an
amount sufficient to pay debt service, operating expenses, taxes and insurance
for the Property for twelve (12) months, and covering loss by flood (if the
Property lies in a specified Flood Hazard Area as designated on the Department
of Housing and Urban Development Maps, or other flood prone designation) in an
amount equal to the outstanding principal balance of the indebtedness secured
hereby or such other amount of coverage as approved by Lender. All such
insurance shall be carried with such company or companies as may be acceptable
to the Lender, which company or companies shall have a current rating equivalent
to at least A:VIII as shown in Best's Key Rating Guide, and the original policy
or policies and renewals thereof (or duplicate originals or certified copies
thereof), together with receipts evidencing payment of the premium therefor,
shall be deposited with, held by and are hereby assigned to Lender as additional
security for the indebtedness secured hereby. Each such policy of insurance
shall contain a non-contributing loss payable clause in favor of and in form
acceptable to Lender and shall provide for not less than thirty (30) days' prior
written notice to Lender of intent to modify, cancel or terminate or the
expiration of such policies of insurance. Not less than fifteen (15) days prior
to the expiration dates of each policy required of the Borrower hereunder,
Borrower will deliver to Lender a renewal policy or policies or a certified copy
thereof marked "premium paid" or accompanied by other evidence of payment and
renewal satisfactory to Lender (Lender agrees that a binder for a renewal policy
accompanied by a copy of an invoice for the premium associated therewith (which
may show that the premium can be paid in quarterly installments) shall be
satisfactory evidence of payment and renewal provided that Borrower delivers to
Lender evidence of the payment of such premium on or before the date the premium
(or installments thereof, if applicable) is due); and in the event of
foreclosure of or exercise of the power of sale in this Security Deed, any
purchaser or purchasers of the Property shall succeed to all rights of the
Borrower, including any rights to unearned premiums, in and to all insurance
policies assigned and delivered to Lender pursuant to the provisions of this
Paragraph 8.
In the event of loss by reason of hazards, casualties, contingencies or
perils for which insurance has been required by the Lender hereunder, the
Borrower shall give immediate notice thereof to the Lender, and the Lender is
hereby irrevocably appointed attorney-in-fact coupled with an interest, for the
Borrower to, at Lender's option, make proof of loss if not made promptly by the
Borrower, and each insurance company concerned is hereby notified, authorized
and directed to make payment for such loss directly to the Lender, instead of to
the Borrower and Lender jointly, and Borrower hereby authorizes Lender to adjust
and compromise any losses for which insurance proceeds are payable under any of
the aforesaid insurance policies and, after deducting the costs of collection,
to apply the proceeds of such insurance, at its option, as follows: (a) to the
restoration or repair of the insured Improvements, Fixtures and Personal
Property, provided that, in the opinion and sole discretion of the Lender, such
restoration or repair is reasonably practical and, provided further, that, in
the opinion and sole discretion of the Lender, either: (i) the insurance
proceeds so collected are sufficient to cover the cost of such restoration or
repair of the damage or destruction with respect to which such proceeds were
paid, or (ii) the insurance proceeds so collected are not sufficient alone to
cover the cost of such restoration or repair, but are sufficient therefor when
taken together with funds provided and made available by the Borrower from other
sources; in which event the Lender shall make such insurance proceeds available
to the Borrower for the purpose of effecting such restoration or repair; but
Lender shall not be obligated to see to the proper application of such insurance
proceeds nor shall the amount of funds so released or used be deemed to be
payment of or on account of the indebtedness secured hereby, or (b) to the
reduction of the outstanding principal indebtedness secured hereby,
notwithstanding the fact that the amount owing thereon may not then be due and
payable or that said indebtedness is otherwise adequately secured, in which
event such proceeds shall be applied at par against the indebtedness secured
hereby and the monthly payment due on account of such indebtedness shall be
adjusted accordingly. None of such actions taken by the Lender shall be deemed
to be or result in a waiver or impairment of any
- 7 -
8
equity, lien or right of the Lender under and by virtue of this Security Deed,
nor will the application of such insurance proceeds to the reduction of the
indebtedness serve to cure any default in the payment thereof. In the event of
foreclosure of this Security Deed or other transfer of title to the Property in
extinguishment of the indebtedness secured hereby, all right, title and interest
of the Borrower in and to any insurance policies then in force and insurance
proceeds then payable shall pass to the purchaser or grantee.
In case of Borrower's failure to keep the Property so insured, Lender or
its assigns, may, at its option (but shall not be required to) effect such
insurance at Borrower's expense.
Notwithstanding anything set forth in this Paragraph 8 to the contrary, in
the event of loss or damage to the Property by fire or other casualty for which
insurance has been required by Lender and provided by Borrower, and the amount
of such loss or damage does not exceed fifty percent (50%) of the outstanding
principal balance of the Note, the Lender hereby agrees to allow the proceeds
of insurance to be used for restoration of the Property and to release such
insurance proceeds to Borrower as such restoration progresses, provided:
(a) Borrower is not in default under any of the terms, covenants and
conditions of this Security Deed, the Note or any of the Loan
Documents evidencing or securing the Note;
(b) [intentionally omitted]
(c) The plans and specifications for restoration of the Property are
approved in writing by the Lender;
(d) At all times during such restoration, Borrower has deposited
with Lender funds which, when added to such insurance proceeds,
are sufficient to complete the restoration of the Property as
certified by an architect approved by Lender in accordance with
the approved plans and specifications and all applicable
building codes and zoning ordinances and regulations, and
further, that the sufficiency of such funds is certified to
Lender by Lender's inspecting architect/engineer;
(e) Borrower provides payment and performance bonds and builder's
all risk insurance for such restoration in form and amount
acceptable to Lender;
(f) The insurer under such policies of fire or other casualty
insurance does not assert any defense to payment under such
policies against Lender, Borrower or any tenant of the Property;
(g) The insurance proceeds held by Lender shall be disbursed no more
often than once per month and in not more than five (5)
increments of amounts of not less than FIFTY THOUSAND AND NO/100
DOLLARS ($50,000.00) each (except the final disbursement of such
proceeds which may be in an amount less than FIFTY THOUSAND AND
NO/100 DOLLARS ($50,000.00). Lender's obligation to make any
such disbursement shall be conditioned upon Lender's receipt of
a written certification from the Lender's inspecting
architect/engineer that all construction and work for which such
disbursement is requested has been completed in accordance with
the approved plans and specifications and all applicable
building codes, zoning ordinances and all other local or federal
governmental regulations and, further, that Borrower has
deposited with Lender sufficient funds to complete such
restoration in accordance with subparagraph (d) above;
(h) Lender shall have the option, upon the completion of such
restoration of the Property, to apply any surplus insurance
proceeds remaining after the completion of such restoration, at
par, to the reduction of the indebtedness secured by this
Security Deed; notwithstanding the fact that the amount
- 8 -
9
owing thereon may not then be due and payable or that said
indebtedness is otherwise adequately secured; and
(i) Lender shall be entitled to require and to impose such other
conditions to the release of such insurance proceeds for
restoration of the Property as would be customarily or
reasonably required and imposed by a construction lender for a
project of similar nature and cost.
9. LIABILITY INSURANCE. To carry and maintain such comprehensive general
liability insurance as may from time to time be required by Lender, taking into
consideration the type of property insured and the corresponding liability
exposure, on forms, in amounts and with such company or companies as may be
acceptable to Lender. All such comprehensive general liability insurance shall
be carried with a company or companies as may be acceptable to Lender, which
company or companies shall have a current rating equivalent to at least A:VIII
as shown in Best's Key Rating Guide. Such policy or policies of insurance shall
name Lender as an additional insured and shall provide for not less than thirty
(30) days' prior written notice to Lender of modification, cancellation,
termination or expiration of such policy or policies of insurance. Not less
than fifteen (15) days prior to the expiration dates of such policy or policies,
Borrower will deliver to Lender a renewal policy or policies or a certified copy
thereof marked "premium paid" or accompanied by other evidence of payment and
renewal satisfactory to Lender (Lender agrees that a binder for a renewal policy
accompanied by a copy of an invoice for the premium associated therewith (which
may show that the premium can be paid in quarterly installments) shall be
satisfactory evidence of payment and renewal provided that Borrower delivers to
Lender evidence of the payment of such premium on or before the date the premium
(or installments thereof, if applicable) is due). The original policy or
policies and all renewals thereof (or duplicate originals or certified copies
thereof), together with receipts evidencing payment of the premium therefor,
shall be deposited with, held by and are hereby assigned to Lender as additional
security for the indebtedness secured hereby.
10. COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS. To observe, abide by and comply with all
statutes ordinances, laws, orders, requirements or decrees relating to the
Property enacted, promulgated or issued by any federal, state, county or
municipal authority or any agency or subdivision thereof having jurisdiction
over the Borrower or the Property, and to observe and comply with all conditions
and requirements necessary to preserve and extend any and all rights, licenses,
permits (including, but not limited to, zoning variances, special exceptions and
nonconforming uses), privileges, franchises and concessions which are applicable
to the Property or which have been granted to or contracted for by Borrower in
connection with any existing, presently contemplated or future use of the
Property.
11. MAINTENANCE OF PERMITS. To obtain, keep and constantly maintain in
full force and effect during the entire term of this Security Deed, all
certificates, licenses and permits necessary to keep the Property operating as
an apartment complex project, and, except as specifically provided for in this
mortgage, not to assign, transfer or in any manner change such certificates,
licenses or permits without first receiving the written consent of the Lender.
12. OBLIGATIONS OF BORROWER AS LESSOR. To perform every obligation of the
Borrower (as the lessor) and enforce every obligation of the lessee in any and
every lease or other occupancy agreement affecting the Property or any part
thereof (hereinafter referred to as the "Occupancy Leases"), and not to modify,
alter, waive or cancel any such Occupancy Leases or any part thereof, nor
collect for more than thirty (30) days in advance any rents that may be
collectible under any such Occupancy Leases and, except as provided for in this
Security Deed, not to assign any such Occupancy Lease or any such rents to any
party other than Lender, without the prior written consent of the Lender. In
the event of default under any such Occupancy Lease by reason of failure of the
Borrower to keep or perform one or more of the covenants, agreements or
conditions thereof, the Lender is hereby authorized and empowered, and may, at
its sole option, remedy, remove or cure any such default, and further, Lender
may, at its sole option and in its sole discretion, but without obligation to do
so, pay any sum of money deemed necessary by it for the performance of said
covenants, agreements and conditions, or for the curing or removal of any such
default, and incur all expenses and obligations which it may consider necessary
or reasonable in connection therewith, and Borrower shall repay on demand all
such sums so paid or advanced
- 9 -
10
by Lender together with interest thereon until paid at the lesser of either (i)
the highest rate then allowed by the laws of the State of Georgia, or, if
controlling, the laws of the United States, or (ii) the then-applicable interest
rate of the Note plus five hundred (500) basis points; all of such sums, if
unpaid, shall be added to and become part of the indebtedness secured hereby.
All such Occupancy Leases hereafter made shall be subject to the approval of
Lender and (a) shall be at competitive market rental rates then prevailing in
the geographic area for apartment complexes comparable to the Property and (b)
at Lender's option shall be superior or subordinate in all respects to the lien
of this Security Deed. Provided, however, that the Lender shall not require
approval in advance of any Occupancy Leases which conform to the Borrower's Form
Lease (as hereinafter defined) as previously approved by Lender, except as set
forth below. Neither the right nor the exercise of the right herein granted
unto Lender to keep or perform any such covenants, agreements, or conditions as
aforesaid shall preclude Lender from exercising its option to cause the whole
indebtedness secured hereby to become immediately, but subject to the notice and
cure period in Paragraph 23, due and payable by reason of Borrower's default in
keeping or performing any such covenants, agreements or conditions as
hereinabove required.
Lender has heretofore approved a form of Occupancy Lease to be used by
Borrower in connection with the Property (hereinafter referred to as the "Form
Lease"). Borrower shall not, without the prior written consent of the Lender,
modify or alter the Form Lease in any material respect. In addition Borrower
shall not, without the prior written consent of Lender, surrender or terminate
(except in the ordinary course of business), either orally or in writing, any
Occupancy Lease now existing or hereafter made for all or part of the Property,
permit an assignment or sublease of any such Occupancy Lease, or request or
consent to the subordination of any Occupancy Lease to any lien subordinate to
this Security Deed. Upon request, the Borrower shall furnish the Lender with
copies of all executed Occupancy Leases of all or any part of the Property now
existing or hereafter made, and Borrower shall assign to the Lender (which
assignment shall be in form and content acceptable to Lender), as additional
security for the Note, all Occupancy Leases now existing or hereafter made of
all or any part of the Property.
13. MAINTENANCE OF PARKING AND ACCESS; PROHIBITION AGAINST ALTERATION. To
construct, keep and constantly maintain, as the case may be, all curbs, drives,
parking areas and the number of parking spaces heretofore approved by the
Lender or heretofore or hereafter required by any governmental body, agency or
authority having jurisdiction over the Borrower or the Property, and not to
alter, erect, build or construct upon any portion of the Property, any building
or structure of any kind whatsoever, the erection, building or construction of
which has not been previously approved by Lender in writing, which approval
shall be at the sole discretion of Lender. To the extent any alterations or
improvements are required to be approved by any tenants of the Property, no
such alterations or improvements shall be made unless and until such consent
has been obtained in writing and a copy thereof furnished to Lender.
14. EXECUTION OF ADDITIONAL DOCUMENTS. To do, execute, acknowledge and
deliver all and every such further acts, deeds, conveyances, mortgages, deeds
to secure debt, assignments, notices of assignments, transfers, assurances and
other instruments, including security agreements and financing statements, as
the Lender shall from time to time require for the purpose of better assuring,
conveying, assigning, transferring and confirming unto the Lender the Property
and rights hereby encumbered, created, conveyed, assigned or intended now or
hereafter so to be encumbered, created, conveyed or assigned or which the
Borrower may now be or may hereafter become bound to encumber, create, convey,
or assign to the Lender, or for the purpose of carrying out the intention or
facilitating the performance of the terms of this Security Deed, or for filing,
registering or recording this Security Deed, and to pay all filing, registration
or recording fees and all taxes, costs and other expenses, including Reasonable
Attorneys' Fees (as defined in Paragraph 47), incident to the preparation,
execution, acknowledgment, delivery, and recordation of any of the same.
15. AFTER-ACQUIRED PROPERTY SECURED. It is understood and agreed that all
right, title and interest of the Borrower in and to all extensions,
improvements, betterments, renewals, substitutions and replacements of, and all
additions and appurtenances to, the Property hereinabove described, hereafter
acquired by or released to the Borrower, or constructed, assembled or placed by
the Borrower on the Real Property, and all conversions of the security
- 10 -
11
constituted thereby, immediately upon such acquisition, release, construction,
assembling, placement or conversion, as the case may be, and in each such case,
without any further mortgage, encumbrance, conveyance, assignment or other act
by the Borrower, shall become subject to the lien and security title of this
Security Deed as fully and completely and with the same effect as though now
owned by the Borrower and specifically described herein, but at any and all
times the Borrower will execute and deliver to the Lender any and all such
further assurances, mortgages, deeds to secure debt, conveyances, or assignments
thereof or security interests therein as the Lender may reasonably require for
the purpose of expressly and specifically subjecting the same to the lien of
this Security Deed.
16. PAYMENTS BY LENDER ON BEHALF OF BORROWER. Should the Borrower fail to
make payment of any taxes, assessments or public charges on or with respect to
the Property before the same shall become delinquent, or shall fail to make
payment of any insurance premiums or other charges, impositions or liens herein
or elsewhere required to be paid by the Borrower, then the Lender, at its sole
option, but without obligation to do so, may make payment or payments of the
same and also may redeem the Property from tax sale without any obligation to
inquire into the validity of such taxes, assessments and tax sales. In the case
of any such payment by the Lender, the Borrower agrees to reimburse the Lender,
upon demand therefor, the amount of such payment and of any fees and expenses
attendant in making the same, together with interest thereon at the lesser of
either (i) the highest rate then allowed by the laws of the State of Georgia, or
if controlling, the laws of the United States, or (ii) the then applicable
interest rate of the Note plus five hundred (500) basis points; and until paid,
such amounts and interest shall be added to and become part of the debt secured
hereby to the same extent that this Security Deed secures the repayment of the
indebtedness evidenced by the Note. In making payments hereby authorized by the
provisions of this Paragraph 16; the Lender may do so whenever, in its sole
judgment and discretion, such advance or advances are necessary or desirable to
protect the full security intended to be afforded by this instrument. Neither
the right nor the exercise of the right herein granted unto the Lender to make
any such payments as aforesaid shall preclude the Lender from exercising its
option to cause the whole indebtedness secured hereby to become immediately due
and payable by reason of the Borrower's default in making such payments as
hereinabove required.
17. FUNDS HELD BY LENDER FOR TAXES, INSURANCE PREMIUMS, ASSESSMENTS AND
OTHER CHARGES. In order to more fully protect the security of this Security
Deed, Borrower shall deposit with the Lender, together with and in addition to
each monthly payment due on account of the indebtedness evidenced by the Note,
an amount equal to one-twelfth (1/12) of the annual total of such taxes,
insurance premiums, assessments and charges (all as estimated by the Lender in
its sole discretion) so that, at least thirty (30) days prior to the due date
thereof, Lender shall be able to pay in full all such taxes, insurance premiums,
assessments and other charges as the same shall become due, and the Lender may
hold without paying interest and commingle with its general funds the sums so
deposited and apply the same to the payment of said taxes, insurance premiums,
assessments or other charges as they become due and payable. If at any time the
funds so held by Lender are insufficient to pay such taxes, insurance premiums,
assessments or other charges as they become due and payable the Borrower shall
immediately, upon notice and demand by Lender, deposit with Lender the amount of
such deficiency, and the failure on the part of the Borrower to do so shall
entitle the Lender, at its sole option, to make such payments in accordance with
its rights and pursuant to the conditions elsewhere provided in this Security
Deed. Notwithstanding any default under this Security Deed, Lender agrees to
apply any funds deposited by Borrower and being held by Lender pursuant to this
paragraph for the payment of taxes toward the payment of taxes which are then a
lien on the Property. Thereafter, at its sole option, Lender may apply any
funds so held by it pursuant to this Paragraph 17 toward the payment of the
indebtedness secured hereby, notwithstanding the fact that the amount owing
thereon may not then be due and payable or that said indebtedness is otherwise
adequately secured in such order and manner of application as Lender may elect.
18. CONDEMNATION; EMINENT DOMAIN. All awards and other compensation
heretofore or hereafter made to Borrower and all subsequent owners of the
Property in any taking by eminent domain or recovery for inverse condemnation,
either permanent or temporary, of all or any part of the Property or any
easement or any appurtenance thereto, including severance and consequential
damages and change in grade of any street, are hereby assigned to Lender, and
- 11 -
12
Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints Lender as its attorney-in-fact, coupled
with an interest, and authorizes, directs and empowers such attorney, at the
option of said attorney, on behalf of Borrower, its successors and assigns, to
adjust or compromise the claim for any such award and alone to collect and
receive the proceeds thereof, to give proper receipts and acquittances therefor
and, after deducting any expenses of collection, at its sole option:
(i) to apply the net proceeds as a credit upon the outstanding principal
balance of the indebtedness secured hereby, as selected by Lender,
notwithstanding the fact that the amount owing thereon may not then be
due and payable or that the indebtedness is otherwise adequately
secured. In the event Lender applies such awards to the reduction of
the outstanding indebtedness evidenced by the Note, such proceeds shall
be applied at par and the monthly installments due and payable under
the Note shall be adjusted accordingly; however no such application
shall serve to cure an existing default in the payment of the Note; or
(ii) to hold said proceeds without any allowance of interest and make the
same available for restoration or rebuilding the Property. In the
event that Lender elects to make said proceeds available to reimburse
Borrower for the cost of the restoration or rebuilding of the buildings
or improvements on the Property, such proceeds shall be made available
in the manner and under the conditions that Lender may require as
provided under Paragraph 8 hereof. If the proceeds are made available
by Lender to reimburse Borrower for the cost of said restoration or
rebuilding, any surplus which may remain out of said award after
payment of such cost of restoration or rebuilding shall be applied on
account of the indebtedness secured hereby at par notwithstanding the
fact that the amount owing thereon may not then be due and payable or
that said indebtedness is otherwise adequately secured.
Borrower further covenants and agrees to give Lender immediate notice of
the actual or threatened commencement of any proceedings under eminent domain
and to deliver to Lender copies of any and all papers served in connection with
any proceedings. Borrower further covenants and agrees to make, execute and
deliver to Lender, at any time or times, upon request, free, clear and
discharged of any encumbrance of any kind whatsoever, any and all further
assignments and/or other instruments deemed necessary by Lender for the purpose
of validly and sufficiently assigning all such awards and other compensation
heretofore or hereafter made to Lender (including the assignment of any award
from the United States government at any time after the allowance of the claim
therefor, the ascertainment of the amount thereof and the issuance of the
warrant for payment thereof).
It shall be a default hereunder if any part of any of the Improvements
situated on the Property shall be condemned by any governmental authority having
jurisdiction, or if lands constituting a portion of the Property shall be
condemned by any governmental authority having jurisdiction, such that the
Property is in violation of applicable parking, zoning or other ordinances, or
fails to comply with the terms of the Occupancy Leases, and in either of said
events, Lender shall be entitled to exercise any or all remedies provided or
referenced in this Security Deed.
19. COSTS OF COLLECTION. In the event that the Note secured hereby is
placed in the hands of an attorney for collection, or in the event that the
Lender shall become a party either as plaintiff or as defendant, in any action,
suit, appeal or legal proceeding (including, without limitation, foreclosure,
condemnation, bankruptcy, administrative proceedings or any proceeding wherein
proof of claim is by law required to be filed), hearing, motion or application
before any court or administrative body in relation to the Property or the lien
and security interest granted or created hereby or herein, or for the recovery
or protection of said indebtedness or the Property, or for the foreclosure of
this Security Deed, the Borrower shall save and hold the Lender harmless from
and against any and all costs and expenses incurred by the Lender on account
thereof, including, but not limited to, Reasonable Attorneys' Fees, title
searches and abstract and survey charges, at all trial and appellate levels, and
the Borrower shall repay, on demand, all such costs and expenses, together with
interest thereon until paid at the lesser of either (i) the highest rate then
allowed by the laws of the State of Georgia, or, if controlling, the laws of the
United States,
- 12 -
13
or (ii) the applicable rate of interest of the Note plus five hundred (500)
basis point; all of which sums, if unpaid, shall be added to and become a part
of the indebtedness secured hereby.
20. DEFAULT RATE. If the entire outstanding balance of the Note is due,
whether at maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, the total amount due,
whether principal, interest or money owing for advancements pursuant to the
terms of this Security Deed or any other Loan Document, shall bear interest
until paid at the lesser of (i) the highest rate then allowed by the laws of
the State of Georgia, or, if controlling, the laws of the United States, or
(ii) the then applicable rate of interest of the Note plus five hundred (500)
basis points (five percent per annum); all of which sums shall be added to and
become a part of the indebtedness secured hereby.
21. SAVINGS CLAUSE; SEVERABILITY. Notwithstanding any provisions in the
Note or in this Security Deed to the contrary, the total liability for payments
in the nature of interest including but not limited to Prepayment Premiums,
default interest and late fees shall not exceed the limits imposed by laws of
the State of Georgia or the United States of America relating to maximum
allowable charges of interest. Lender shall not be entitled to receive,
collect or apply, as interest on the indebtedness evidenced by the Note, any
amount in excess of the maximum lawful rate of interest permitted to be charged
by applicable law. In the event Lender ever receives, collects or applies as
interest any such excess, such amount which would be excessive interest shall
be applied to reduce the unpaid principal balance of the indebtedness evidenced
by the note. If the unpaid principal balance of such indebtedness is paid in
full any remaining excess shall be paid forthwith to the Borrower. If any
clauses or provisions herein contained operate or would prospectively operate
to invalidate this Security Deed, then such clauses or provisions only shall be
held for naught, as though not herein contained, and the remainder of this
Security Deed shall remain operative and in full force and effect.
22. BANKRUPTCY, REORGANIZATION OR ASSIGNMENT. It shall be a default
hereunder if the Borrower or any general partner of Borrower shall: (a) consent
to the appointment of a receiver, trustee or liquidator of all or a substantial
part of Borrower's assets, or (b) be adjudicated a bankrupt or insolvent, or
file a voluntary petition in bankruptcy, or admit in writing its inability to
pay its debts as they become due, or (c) make a general assignment for the
benefit of creditors, or (d) file a petition under or take advantage of any
insolvency law, or (e) file an answer admitting the material allegations of a
petition filed against the Borrower or any general partner of Borrower in any
bankruptcy, reorganization or insolvency proceeding or fail to cause the
dismissal of such petition within sixty (60) days after the filing of said
petition, or (f) take action for the purpose of effecting any of the foregoing,
or (g) if any order, judgment or decree shall be entered upon an application of
a creditor of Borrower or any general partner of Borrower by a court of
competent jurisdiction approving a petition seeking appointment of a receiver or
trustee of all or a substantial part of the Borrower's assets or any of
Borrower's general partner's assets and such order, judgment or decree shall
continue unstayed and in effect for a period of sixty (60) days.
23. TIME IS OF THE ESSENCE; MONETARY AND NON-MONETARY DEFAULTS. It is
understood by Borrower that time is of the essence hereof in connection with all
obligations of Borrower herein, in the Note, the Assignment (as defined in
Paragraph 34) and any of the other Loan Documents.
If default be made in the payment of any installment of the Note, whether
of principal or interest, or in the payment of any other sums of money referred
to herein or in the Note, promptly and fully when the same shall be due and
such Monetary Default (as hereinafter defined) remains uncured after the
Monetary Cure Period (as hereinafter defined), if applicable (if the Monetary
Cure Period is not applicable, no notice or demand from Lender to Borrower
shall be required), or in the event a breach or default be made by the Borrower
in any one of the agreements, conditions and covenants of said Note, this
Security Deed, the Assignment or any Loan Documents evidencing or securing the
Note, or in the event that each and every one of said agreements, conditions
and covenants are not otherwise duly, promptly and fully discharged or
performed, and any such Non-Monetary Default (as hereinafter defined) remains
uncured for a period of thirty (30) days after written notice thereof from the
Lender to the Borrower has been delivered in the manner prescribed in Paragraph
41 hereof (except that if such Non-Monetary
- 13 -
14
Default cannot reasonably be cured within the 30 day period Borrower shall have
a reasonable period of time to cure such default provided that Borrower
commences the cure of such default within the 30 day period and thereafter
diligently pursues the cure to completion), Lender at its sole option may
thereupon or thereafter declare the indebtedness evidenced by the Note, as well
as all other monies secured hereby, including, without limitation, all
Prepayment Premiums and late payment charges, to be forthwith due and payable,
whereupon the principal of and the interest accrued on the indebtedness
evidenced by the Note and all other sums secured by this Security Deed at the
option of Lender shall immediately become due and payable as if all of said sums
of money were originally stipulated to be paid on such day, and thereupon, the
Lender may avail itself of all rights and remedies provided by law and may
prosecute a suit at law or in equity as if all monies secured hereby had matured
prior to its institution, anything in this Security Deed or in the Note to the
contrary notwithstanding. Lender shall give Borrower notice in the manner
described in Paragraph 41 hereof of, and a 5 day right-to-cure period ("Monetary
Cure Period") to cure, any Monetary Default (as hereinafter defined); provided,
however such Monetary Cure Period shall be limited to once per loan year for the
term of the Note. Lender shall have no obligation to give Borrower notice of
any Incurable Default (as hereinafter defined) prior to exercising its right,
power and privilege to accelerate the maturity of the indebtedness secured
hereby.
As used herein, the term "Monetary Default" shall mean any default which
can be cured by the payment of money such as, but not limited to, the payment of
principal and interest due under the Note, the payment of taxes, assessments and
insurance premiums when due as provided in this Security Deed. As used herein,
the term "Non-Monetary Default" shall mean any default which is not a Monetary
Default or an Incurable Default. As used herein, the term "Incurable Default"
shall mean (i) any voluntary or involuntary sale, assignment, mortgaging,
encumbering or transfer in violation of the covenants contained in Paragraph 30
hereof; or (ii) if Borrower, or its general partner, should make an assignment
for the benefit of creditors, become insolvent, or file a petition in bankruptcy
(including but not limited to, a petition seeking a rearrangement or
reorganization).
If a default shall occur hereunder and is not timely cured as herein
provided, and, as a result thereof, the indebtedness secured hereby is
accelerated and is due and payable in full, the Lender, at its option, may sell
the Property or any part of the Property at public sale or sales before the door
of the courthouse of the County in which the Property or any part of the
Property is situated, to the highest bidder for cash, in order to pay the
indebtedness secured hereby and accrued interest thereon and insurance premiums,
liens, assessments, taxes and charges, including utility charges, if any, with
accrued interest thereon, and all expenses of the sale and of all proceedings in
connection therewith, including Reasonable Attorney's Fees after advertising the
time, place and terms of sale once a week for four (4) weeks immediately
preceding such sale (but without regard to the number of days) in a newspaper in
which Sheriff's sales are advertised in said County. The foregoing
notwithstanding, the Lender may sell, or cause to be sold, any tangible or
intangible personal property, or any part thereof, and which constitute a part
of the security hereunder, in the foregoing manner, or as may otherwise be
provided by law. The Lender may bid and purchase at any such sale and, if
Lender should be the successful bidder at such sale, may satisfy the Lender's
obligation to purchase pursuant to the Lender's bid by canceling an equivalent
portion of any indebtedness then outstanding and secured hereby. At any such
sale, the Lender may execute and deliver to the purchaser a conveyance of the
Property or any part of the Property in fee simple with full warranties of title
and to this end, the Borrower hereby constitutes and appoints the Lender the
agent and attorney in fact of the Borrower to make such sale and conveyance, and
thereby to divest the Borrower of all right, title and equity that the Borrower
may have in and to the Property 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
conveyance or conveyances as to facts essential to a valid sale shall be binding
on the Borrower. 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 secured hereby and shall not be exhausted by one exercise thereof
but may be exercised until full payment of all sums secured hereby. Upon any
such sale pursuant to the aforementioned power of sale and agency, the proceeds
of said sale shall be applied first to payment of the indebtedness secured
hereby and accrued interest and late charges thereon, then to said insurance
premiums,
- 14 -
15
liens, assessments, taxes and charges including utility charges with accrued
interest thereon and then to the reasonable expenses of such sale and of all
proceedings in connection therewith, including reasonable attorney's fees, and
finally, the remainder, if any, shall be paid to the party legally entitled to
same.
In the event of any such public sale pursuant to the aforesaid power of
sale and agency, the Borrower shall be deemed a tenant holding over and shall
forthwith deliver possession of the Property to the purchaser or purchasers at
such sale or be summarily dispossessed according to provisions of law applicable
to tenants holding over.
The failure or omission on the part of the Lender to exercise the option
for acceleration of maturity and to foreclose or exercise the power of sale in
this Security Deed following any default as aforesaid or to exercise any other
option or remedy granted hereunder to Lender when entitled to do so in any one
or more instances, or the acceptance by Lender of partial payment of the
indebtedness secured hereby, whether before or subsequent to Borrower's defaults
hereunder, shall not constitute a waiver of any such default or the right to
exercise any such option or remedy, but such option or remedy shall remain
continuously in force. Acceleration of maturity, once claimed hereunder by
Lender, at the option of Lender, may be rescinded by written acknowledgment to
that effect by Lender, but the tender and acceptance of partial payments alone
shall not in any way affect or rescind such acceleration of maturity.
In case Lender shall have proceeded to enforce any right, power or remedy
under this Security Deed by foreclosure, entry or otherwise, or in the event
Lender commences advertising of the intended exercise of the sale under power
provided hereunder and such proceeding or advertisement shall have been
withdrawn, discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or shall have been
determined adversely to Lender, then in every such case (i) Borrower and Lender
shall be restored to their former positions and rights, (ii) all rights, powers
and remedies of Lender shall continue as if no such proceeding had been taken,
(iii) each and every Default declared or occurring prior or subsequent to such
withdrawal, discontinuance or abandonment shall be and shall be deemed to be a
continuing Default, and (iv) neither this Security Deed, nor the Note, nor any
other instrument concerned therewith, shall be or shall be deemed to have been
reinstated or otherwise affected by such withdrawal, discontinuance or
abandonment, and Borrower hereby expressly waives the benefit of any statute or
rule of law now provided, or which may hereafter be provided, which would
produce a result contrary to or in conflict with the above.
24. PROTECTION OF LENDER'S SECURITY. At any time after default hereunder,
the Lender is authorized, without notice and in its sole discretion, to enter
upon and take possession of the Property or any part thereof and to perform any
acts which the Lender deems necessary or proper to conserve the security herein
intended to be provided by the Property, to operate any business or businesses
conducted thereon and to collect and receive all rents, issues and profits
thereof and therefrom, including those past due as well as those accruing
thereafter.
25. APPOINTMENT OF RECEIVER. If, at any time after a default hereunder, in
the sole discretion of the Lender, a receivership may be necessary to protect
the Property or its rents, issues, revenue, profits or proceeds, whether before
or after maturity of the indebtedness secured hereby and whether before or at
the time of or after the institution of suit to collect such indebtedness, or to
enforce this Security Deed, the Lender, as a matter of strict right and
regardless of the value of the Property or the amounts due hereunder or secured
hereby, or of the solvency of any party bound for the payment of such
indebtedness, shall have the right, upon ex parte application and without notice
to anyone, and by any court having jurisdiction, to the appointment of a
receiver to take charge of, manage, preserve, protect and operate the Property,
to collect the rents, issues, revenues, profits, proceeds and income thereof, to
make all necessary and needful repairs, and to pay all taxes, assessments and
charges against the Property and all premiums for insurance thereon, and to do
such other acts as may by such court be authorized and directed, and after
payment of the expenses of the receivership and the management of the Property,
to apply the net proceeds of such receivership in reduction of the indebtedness
secured hereby or in such other manner as the said court shall direct,
notwithstanding the fact that the amount owing thereon may not then be due and
payable or the said indebtedness is otherwise adequately secured. Such
receivership shall, at the option of Lender, continue until full payment
- 15 -
16
of all sums hereby secured or until title to the Property shall have passed by
sale under this Security Deed. Borrower hereby specifically waives its right to
object to the appointment of a receiver as aforesaid and hereby expressly agrees
that such appointment shall be made as an admitted equity and as a matter of
absolute right to the Lender.
26. RIGHTS AND REMEDIES CUMULATIVE; FORBEARANCE NOT A WAIVER. The rights
and remedies herein provided are cumulative and Lender, as the holder of the
Note and of every other obligation secured hereby, may recover judgment thereon,
issue execution therefor and resort to every other right or remedy available at
law or in equity, without first exhausting any right or remedy available to
Lender and without affecting or impairing the security of any right or remedy
afforded hereby, and no enumeration of special rights or powers by any
provisions hereof shall be construed to limit any grant of general rights or
powers, or to take away or limit any and all rights granted to or vested in
Lender by law, and Borrower further agrees that no delay or omission on the part
of the Lender to exercise any rights or powers accruing to it hereunder shall
impair any such right or power or shall be construed to be a waiver of any such
event of default hereunder or any acquiescence therein; and every right, power
and remedy granted herein or by law to the Lender may be exercised from time to
time as often as may be deemed expedient by the Lender.
27. MODIFICATION NOT AN IMPAIRMENT OF SECURITY. Lender, without notice and
without regard to the consideration, if any, paid therefor, and notwithstanding
the existence at the time of any inferior mortgages, deeds to secure debt, or
other liens thereon, may release any part of the security described herein or
may release any person or entity liable for any indebtedness secured hereby
without in any way affecting the priority of this Security Deed, to the full
extent of the indebtedness remaining unpaid hereunder, upon any part of the
security not expressly released. Lender may, at its option and within its sole
discretion, also agree with any party obligated on said indebtedness, or having
any interest in the security described herein, to extend the time for payment of
any part or all of the indebtedness secured hereby, and such agreement shall
not, in any way, release or impair this Security Deed, but shall extend the same
as against the title of all parties having any interest in said security, which
interest is subject to this Security Deed.
28. PROPERTY MANAGER. The exclusive manager of the Property shall be the
Borrower or such other manager as may be first approved in writing by Lender.
The exclusive leasing agent of the Property, if other than the foregoing party,
shall be first approved in writing by the Lender. The governing management and
leasing contracts shall be subordinate to this Security Deed and satisfactory to
and subject to the written approval of Lender throughout the term of the
indebtedness secured hereby. Upon default in either of these requirements, then
the whole of the indebtedness hereby secured shall, at the election of the
Lender, become immediately (subject to the cure period for a Non-Monetary
Default) due and payable, together with any default premium and late payment
charges required by the Note, and the Lender shall be entitled to exercise any
or all remedies provided or referenced in this Security Deed.
29. MODIFICATION NOT A WAIVER. In the event Lender: (a) releases, as
aforesaid any part of the security described herein or any person or entity
liable for any indebtedness secured hereby, or (b) grants an extension of time
for the payment of the Note, or (c) takes other or additional security for the
payment of the Note, or (d) waives or fails to exercise any rights granted
herein, in the Note, or any of the other Loan Documents, any said act or
omission shall not release Borrower, subsequent purchasers of the Property or
any part thereof, or makers, sureties, endorsers or guarantors of the Note, if
any, from any obligation or any covenant of this Security Deed, the Note, or any
of the other Loan Documents, nor preclude Lender from exercising any right,
power or privilege herein granted or intended to be granted in the event of any
other default then made, or any subsequent default.
30. TRANSFER OF PROPERTY OR CONTROLLING INTEREST IN BORROWER; ASSUMPTION.
Except as hereafter provided, without the prior written consent of the Lender,
the sale, transfer, assignment, or conveyance of all or any portion of the
Property, or a transfer, assignment, or conveyance of a "controlling interest"
in Borrower whether voluntarily or by operation of law, without the prior
written consent of Lender, shall constitute a default under the terms of this
Security Deed and entitle the Lender, at its sole option, to accelerate all sums
due on
- 16 -
17
the Note together with any Prepayment Premiums, late payment charges, or any
other amounts secured hereby. As used herein the term "controlling interest"
means, in the case of a partnership, greater than a 50% interest in the
partnership or votes greater than 50% of the votes required to approve any major
decisions (as opposed to day-to-day or ministerial decisions) of the
partnership, and in the case of a corporation, greater than 50% of the
outstanding voting shares of stock of the corporation. (Notwithstanding the
foregoing sentence, a transfer of partnership interests or partnership units in
the ordinary course of business of Borrower as an "up-REIT" real estate
investment trust structure shall be permitted and shall not constitute a
conveyance of a "controlling interest" in Borrower.) Lender, may, however,
elect to waive the option to accelerate granted hereunder if, prior to any such
sale, transfer, assignment or conveyance of the Property, the following
conditions shall be fully satisfied: (a) the Lender acknowledges in writing
that, in its sole discretion, the creditworthiness of the proposed transferee
and the ability and experience of the proposed transferee to operate the
Property are satisfactory to Lender, and (b) Lender and the proposed transferee
shall enter into an agreement in writing that (i) the interest payable on the
indebtedness secured hereby shall be at such rate as Lender shall determine,
(ii) the repayment schedule as set forth in the Note shall be modified by the
Lender in its sole discretion to amortize the then unpaid principal balance
secured hereby over a period determined by Lender in its sole discretion without
a change in the maturity date of the Note, (iii) an assumption fee to be
determined by Lender may be charged by the Lender in its sole discretion, and
(iv) the proposed transferee shall assume in writing all obligations of Borrower
under the Note, this Security Deed and the other Loan Documents. In the event
the ownership of the Property, or any part thereof, shall become vested in a
person or entity other than the Borrower, whether with or without the prior
written consent of the Lender, the Lender may, without notice to the Borrower,
deal with such successor or successors in interest with reference to the
Property, this Security Deed and the Note in the same manner and to the same
extent as with the Borrower without in any way vitiating or discharging the
Borrower's liability hereunder or under the Note. No sale, transfer or
conveyance of the Property, no forbearance on the part of the Lender and no
extension of time for the payment of the debt hereby secured given by the Lender
shall operate to release, discharge, modify, change or affect the original
liability of the Borrower, either in whole or in part, unless expressly set
forth in writing executed by the Lender. Notwithstanding anything contained
herein to the contrary, Borrower hereby waives any right it now has or may
hereafter have to require Lender to prove an impairment of its security as a
condition to exercise the Lender's rights under this Paragraph 30. If a
transfer of the Property, or a portion thereof, or a transfer of a "controlling
interest" in Borrower is approved by Lender: (a) Lender must receive for its
review and approval copies of all transfer documents, (b) the approved
transferee must assume in writing all obligations under the Note, this Security
Deed and any other Loan Documents, and (c) Borrower or the approved transferee
must pay all costs and expenses in connection with such transfer and assumption,
including without limitation, all fees and expenses incurred by Lender.
Lender acknowledges that Borrower's general partner, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Realty
Investors, Inc. ("RRII"), is a real estate investment trust and that it is
contemplated that Borrower may convey its interest in the Property to RRII.
Therefore, notwithstanding anything contained in this Paragraph 30 to the
contrary, the prior written consent of the Lender shall not be required and
Lender shall not be entitled to accelerate the indebtedness evidenced by the
Note or change the Loan terms upon a transfer so long as (i) the transfer is
made to RRII; (ii) there is no change in the ownership interest of RRII except
for transfers of shares of the real estate investment trust in the ordinary
course of business; and (iii) Lender shall be given prompt notice and
documentation of such transfer, and Borrower shall pay all of Lender's
out-of-pocket expenses associated with such transfer; provided, however, that
Borrower shall notify Lender in writing of any such transfer not less than
thirty (30) days prior to the effective date of such transfer. In addition to
the foregoing, Lender shall permit one (1) bona fide, arm's length transfer of
the Property to any transferee without change in the loan terms; provided,
however, that no such transfer shall be valid or permitted hereunder unless: (i)
Lender receives prior written notice of such proposed transfer, (ii) such
proposed transferee has been approved in writing by the Lender (taking into
account such factors as transferee's creditworthiness, business experience and
managerial capabilities) such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, (iii)
Lender is paid a transfer fee in the amount of one percent (1%) of the then
outstanding principal balance of the Note, (iv) Borrower or the approved
transferee pays all fees and expenses incurred by Lender in connection with such
transfer and assumption, including, without limitation, inspection and
- 17 -
18
investigation fees and Reasonable Attorneys' Fees (as hereinafter defined), and
(v) there is no existing default hereunder or event which with the passage of
time would constitute a default hereunder. Any transfer of all or any portion
of the Property which does not strictly comply with the terms and conditions of
the foregoing shall be a default hereunder and shall entitle the Lender to
exercise all rights and remedies provided in this Security Deed.
31. FURTHER ENCUMBRANCE PROHIBITED; SUBROGATION. So long as the Note
secured hereby remains unpaid, the Borrower shall neither voluntarily nor
involuntarily permit the Property or any part thereof to become subject to any
secondary or other junior lien, mortgage, security interest or encumbrance of
any kind whatsoever other than taxes for the current year and the Permitted
Exceptions, without the prior written consent of the Lender, and the imposition
of any such secondary lien, mortgage, security interest or encumbrance shall
constitute an event of default hereunder and entitle the Lender, at its sole
option, to declare all sums due on account of the Note to be and become
immediately due and payable. In the event that Lender shall hereafter give its
written consent to the imposition of any such secondary lien, mortgage, security
interest or other encumbrance upon the Property, the Lender, at its sole option,
shall be entitled to accelerate the maturity of the Note and exercise any and
all remedies provided and available to Lender hereunder in the event that the
holder of any such secondary lien or encumbrance shall institute foreclosure or
other proceedings to enforce the same; it being understood and agreed that a
default under any instrument or document evidencing, securing or secured by any
such secondary lien or encumbrance shall be and constitute an event of default
hereunder. In the event all or any portion of the proceeds of the loan secured
hereby are used for the purpose of retiring debt or debts secured by prior liens
on the Property, the Lender shall be subrogated to the rights and lien priority
of the holder of the lien so discharged.
32. CONVEYANCE OF MINERAL RIGHTS PROHIBITED. Borrower agrees that the
making of any oil, gas or mineral lease or the sale or conveyance of any mineral
interest or right to explore for minerals under, through or upon the Property
would impair the value of the Property securing the Note, and that the Borrower
shall have no right, power or authority to lease the Property, or any part
thereof, for oil, gas or other mineral purposes, or to grant, assign or convey
any mineral interest of any nature, or the right to explore for oil, gas and
other minerals, without first obtaining from the Lender express written
permission therefor, which permission shall not be valid until recorded among
the Public Records of DeKalb County, Georgia. The Borrower further agrees that
if the Borrower shall make, execute or enter into any such lease or attempt to
grant any such mineral rights without such prior written permission of the
Lender, then the Lender shall have the option, without notice, to declare the
same to be a default hereunder and to declare the indebtedness hereby secured
immediately due and payable. Whether or not the Lender shall consent to such
lease or grant of mineral rights, the Lender shall receive the entire
consideration to be paid for such lease or grant of mineral rights, with the
same to be applied to the indebtedness hereby secured notwithstanding the fact
that the amount owing thereon may not then be due and payable or the said
indebtedness is otherwise adequately secured; provided, however, that the
acceptance of such consideration shall in no way impair the lien of this
Security Deed on the Property.
33. ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATION BY BORROWER. Borrower, upon request therefor
made either personally or by mail, shall certify in writing to Lender (or any
party designated by Lender) in form satisfactory to Lender the amount of
principal and interest then outstanding under the terms of the Note and any
other sums due and owing under this Security Deed or any of the other Loan
Documents and whether any offsets or defenses exist against the mortgage debt.
Such certification shall be made by Borrower within ten (10) days if the request
is made personally, or within twenty (20) days if the request is made by mail.
34. CROSS-DEFAULT. The Note is also secured by the terms, conditions and
provisions of an Assignment of Leases, Rents and Profits (hereinafter referred
to as the "Assignment") recorded among the Public Records of DeKalb County,
Georgia and, additionally, may be secured by contracts or agreements of guaranty
or other security instruments. The terms, conditions and provisions of each
security instrument shall be considered a part hereof as fully as if set forth
herein verbatim. Any default under this Security Deed or the Note secured
hereby shall constitute an event of default under the Assignment or any of the
other Loan Documents, and any default under the Assignment or other Loan
Documents shall likewise constitute a
- 18 -
19
default hereunder and under the Note. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
enforcement or attempted enforcement of this Security Deed or any of the other
Loan Documents now or hereafter held by Lender shall not prejudice or in any
manner affect the right of Lender to enforce any other Loan Document; it being
understood and agreed that the Lender shall be entitled to enforce this Security
Deed and any of the other Loan Documents now or hereafter held by it in such
order and manner as Lender, in its sole discretion, shall determine.
35. EXAMINATION OF BORROWER'S RECORDS. Borrower will maintain complete
and accurate books and records showing in detail the income and expenses of the
Property, and will permit upon no less than two (2) days notice the Lender and
its representatives to examine said books and records and all supporting
vouchers and data during normal business hours and from time to time upon
request by the Lender, in such place as such books and records are customarily
kept, and will furnish to the Lender, within one hundred twenty (120) days
after the close of each calendar year, audited financial statements of each
general partner of Borrower and statements of operations of the Property
certified by the general partner of the Borrower to be true and correct and
showing in detail all income derived from and expenses incurred in connection
with the ownership of the Property. All such statements shall be in form
acceptable to Lender and shall be prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles and shall include an annual rent schedule. In
the event the Borrower fails to provide such statements to the Lender within
the time prescribed above, the Borrower shall pay the Lender the sum of TWO
HUNDRED AND NO/100 DOLLARS ($200.00) for each successive month for which
statements are delinquent. In the event of default hereunder, Lender shall
have the right to require that said financial statements of the Property be
audited and certified by a certified public accountant acceptable to the
Lender, all at the sole cost and expense of the Borrower.
36. ALTERATION, REMOVAL AND CHANGE IN USE OF PROPERTY PROHIBITED. Borrower
covenants and agrees to permit or suffer none of the following without the prior
written consent of the Lender:
(a) Any structural alteration of, or addition to, the Improvements now
or hereafter situated upon the Real Property or the addition of any new
buildings or other structure(s) thereto other than erection or removal of
non-load bearing interior walls; or
(b) The removal, transfer, sale or lease of the Property, except that
the renewal, replacement or substitution of fixtures, equipment, machinery,
apparatus and articles of personal property (replacement or substituted
items must be of like or better quality than the removed items in their
original condition) encumbered hereby may be made in the normal course of
business; or
(c) The use of any of the Improvements now or hereafter situated on the
Real Property for any purpose other than as an apartment complex project and
related facilities.
37. FUTURE ADVANCES SECURED. This Security Deed shall secure not only
existing indebtedness, but also such future advances, whether such advances are
obligatory or to be made at the option of the Lender. Upon request of Borrower,
and at Lender's option prior to release of this Security Deed, Lender may make
future advances to Borrower. All future advances with interest thereon shall be
secured by this Security Deed to the same extent as if such future advances were
made on the date of the execution of this Security Deed unless the parties shall
agree otherwise in writing, but the total secured indebtedness shall not exceed
at any one time a maximum principal amount equal to double the face amount of
the Note plus interest, and costs of collection including court costs and
Reasonable Attorneys' Fees. Any advances or disbursements made for the benefit
or protection of or the payment of taxes, assessments, levies or insurance upon
the Property, with interest on such disbursements as provided herein, shall be
added to the principal balance of the Note and collected as a part thereof. To
the extent that this Security Deed may secure more than one note, a default in
the payment of any note shall constitute a default in the payment of all such
notes.
38. EFFECT OF SECURITY AGREEMENT. Borrower does hereby grant and this
Security Deed is and shall be deemed to create, grant, give and convey a
mortgage of, a lien and encumbrance upon, and a present security interest in
both real and personal property, including
- 19 -
20
all improvements, goods, chattels, furniture, furnishings, fixtures, equipment,
apparatus, appliances and other items of tangible or intangible personal
property, hereinabove particularly or generally described and conveyed, whether
now or hereafter affixed to, located upon, necessary for or used or useful,
either directly or indirectly, in connection with the operation of the Property
as an apartment complex project, and this Security Deed shall also serve as a
"security agreement" within the meaning of that term as used in the Uniform
Commercial Code as adopted and in force from time to time in the State of
Georgia, and shall be operative and effective as a security agreement in
addition to, and not in substitution for, any other security agreement executed
by the Borrower in connection with the extension of credit or loan transaction
secured hereby. Upon the occurrence of a default hereunder or Borrower's breach
of any other covenants or agreements between the parties entered into in
conjunction herewith, Lender shall have the remedies (i) as prescribed herein,
or (ii) as prescribed by general law, or (iii) as prescribed by the specific
statutory consequences now or hereafter enacted and specified in said Uniform
Commercial Code, all at Lender's sole election. Borrower and Lender agree that
the filing of any such financing statement or statements in the records normally
having to do with personal property shall not in any way affect the agreement of
Borrower and Lender that everything used in connection with the production of
income from the Property or adapted for use therein or which is described or
reflected in this Security Deed, is, and at all times and for all purposes and
in all proceedings, both legal or equitable, shall be, regarded as part of the
real estate conveyed hereby regardless of whether (i) any such item is
physically attached to the improvements, (ii) serial numbers are used for the
better identification of certain items capable of being thus identified in an
exhibit to this Security Deed or elsewhere, or (iii) any such item is referred
to or reflected in any such financing statement or statements so filed at any
time. Similarly, the mention in any such financing statement or statements of
the rights in and to (i) the proceeds of any fire and hazard insurance policy,
or (ii) any award in eminent domain proceedings for a taking or for loss of
value, or (iii) Borrower's interest as lessor or landlord in any present or
future lease or rights to income growing out of the use and occupancy of the
Property, whether pursuant to lease or otherwise, shall not in any way alter any
of the rights of Lender as determined by this Security Deed or affect the
priority of Lender's security interest granted hereby or by any other recorded
document, it being understood and agreed that such mention in such financing
statement or statements is solely for the protection of Lender in the event any
court shall at any time hold, with respect to the foregoing clauses (i), (ii) or
(iii) of this sentence, that notice of Lender's priority of interest, to be
effective against a particular class of persons, must be filed in the Uniform
Commercial Code records. Borrower warrants that (i) Borrower's (that is,
"Debtor's") name, identity and residence or principal place of business are as
set forth in Exhibit C attached hereto and made a part hereof; (ii) Borrower
(that is, "Debtor") has been using or operating under said name and identity
without change for the time period set forth in Exhibit C; and (iii) the
location of the collateral is upon the Property. Borrower covenants and agrees
that Borrower will furnish Lender with notice of any change in the matters
addressed by clauses (i) or (iii) of this paragraph within thirty (30) days of
the effective date of any such change and Borrower will promptly execute any
financing statements or other instruments deemed necessary by Lender to prevent
any filed financing statement from becoming misleading or losing its perfected
status. If Borrower fails to promptly execute any such financing statements or
other instruments, Lender may make, execute, record, file, re-record, and
re-file any and all such financing statements or other instruments for and in
the name of Borrower, and Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints Lender the agent
and attorney-in-fact of Borrower so to do. This appointment of Lender as
Borrower's attorney-in-fact is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable by
death or otherwise. The information contained in this paragraph is provided in
order that this Security Deed shall comply with the requirements of the Uniform
Commercial Code, as enacted in the State of Georgia, for instruments to be filed
as financing statements. The names of the "Debtor" and the "Secured Party," the
identity and residence or principal place of business of "Debtor," the time
period for which "Debtor" has been using or operating under said name and
identity without change are as set forth in Schedule 1 of Exhibit C; the mailing
address of the "Secured Party" from which information concerning the security
interest may be obtained, and the mailing address of "Debtor," are as set forth
in Schedule 2 of said Exhibit C; and a statement indicating the types, or
describing the items, of collateral is set forth hereinabove.
The Borrower agrees to and shall, upon the request of Lender, execute and
deliver to Lender, in form and content satisfactory to Lender, such financing
statements, descriptions of
- 20 -
21
property and such further assurances as Lender, in its sole discretion, may from
time to time consider necessary to create, perfect, continue and preserve the
lien and encumbrances hereof and the security interest granted herein upon and
in such real and personal property and fixtures described herein, including all
buildings, improvements, goods, chattels, furniture, furnishings, fixtures,
equipment, apparatus, appliances and other items of tangible and intangible
personal property herein specifically or generally described and intended to be
the subject of the security interest, lien and encumbrance hereby created,
granted and conveyed. Without the prior written consent of Lender, Borrower
shall not create or suffer to be created, pursuant to the Uniform Commercial
Code, any other security interest in such real and personal property and
fixtures described herein. The Lender, at the expense of the Borrower, may or
shall cause such statements, descriptions and assurances, as herein provided in
this Paragraph 38, and this Security Deed to be recorded and re-recorded, filed
and refiled, at such times and in such places as may be required or permitted by
law to so create, perfect and preserve the lien and encumbrance hereof upon all
of the Property.
39. TERMS OF CONTRACT SURVIVE CLOSING. The terms and provisions of the
application/contract between Lender and Borrower are incorporated herein by
reference, said application/contract being dated January 24, 1996, and any
subsequent amendment thereto (hereinafter referred to as the "Contract"). All
terms and conditions of the Contract not expressly set forth in this Security
Deed, the Note and any other Loan Documents shall survive the closing hereof and
remain in full force and effect. In the event any conflict exists between the
terms, conditions and provisions of the Contract and the Loan Documents, the
terms, conditions and provisions of the Loan Documents shall prevail.
40. SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS; TERMINOLOGY. The provisions hereof shall be
binding upon the Borrower and the successors and assigns of the Borrower, and
inure to the benefit of Lender and its successors and assigns. Where more than
one Borrower is named herein, the obligations and liabilities of said Borrower
shall be joint and several. Wherever used in this Security Deed, unless the
context clearly indicates a contrary intent or unless otherwise specifically
provided herein, the word "Borrower" shall mean Borrower and/or any subsequent
owner or owners of the Property, the word "Lender" shall mean Lender or any
subsequent holder or holders of this Security Deed, the word "Note" shall mean
Note(s) secured by this Security Deed, and the word "person" shall mean an
individual, trustee, trust, corporation, partnership or unincorporated
association.
41. NOTICES. All notices hereunder shall be deemed to have been duly given
if mailed by United States registered or certified mail, with return receipt
requested, postage prepaid, or if deposited with a nationally recognized
overnight courier such as Federal Express, to the parties at the following
addresses (or at such other addresses as shall be given in writing by any party
to the others), and shall be deemed complete upon receipt (which, in the case of

42. GOVERNING LAW. This Security Deed is to be governed by and construed
in accordance with the laws of the State of Georgia, and, if controlling, by
the laws of the United States.
43. RIGHTS OF LENDER CUMULATIVE. The rights of the Lender arising under
the clauses and covenants contained in this Security Deed shall be separate,
distinct and cumulative and none of them shall be in exclusion of the others;
and no act of the Lender shall be construed as an election to proceed under any
one provision herein to the exclusion of any other provisions, anything herein
or otherwise to the contrary notwithstanding.
44. MODIFICATIONS. This Security Deed cannot be changed, altered, amended
or modified except by an agreement in writing and in recordable form, executed
by both Borrower and Lender.
45. EXCULPATION. Subject to the last sentence of this Paragraph 45, the
liability of Borrower with respect to the payment of principal and interest
under the Note shall be "non-recourse" and, accordingly, Lender's source of
satisfaction of said indebtedness and Borrower's other obligations hereunder
and under the other Loan Documents shall be limited to the Property and
Lender's receipt of the rents, issues and profits from the Property and Lender
shall not seek to procure payment out of any other assets of Borrower or any
person or entity comprising Borrower, or to seek any judgment (except as
hereinafter provided) for any sums which are or may be payable under the Note,
this Security Deed or any of the other Loan Documents, or for any claim or
judgment (except as hereafter provided) for any deficiency remaining after
foreclosure of this Security Deed. Notwithstanding the above, nothing herein
contained shall be deemed to be a release or impairment of the Note or the
security therefor intended by this Security Deed and the other Loan Documents,
or be deemed to preclude Lender from exercising its rights to foreclose this
Security Deed or to enforce any of its other rights or remedies under the Loan
Documents.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is expressly understood and agreed that
the aforesaid limitation on liability shall in no way affect or apply to the
Borrower's continued personal liability for:
(1) fraud or intentional misrepresentation made in or in connection
with the Note or any of the other Loan Documents governing, securing
or pertaining to the payment thereof;
(2) failure to pay taxes prior to delinquency or to pay assessments
prior to delinquency, or to pay charges for labor, materials or other
charges which can create liens on any portion of the Property;
(3) the misapplication of (i) proceeds of insurance covering any
portion of the Property, or (ii) proceeds of the sale or condemnation
of any portion of the Property, or (iii) rentals received by or on
behalf of Borrower subsequent to the date on which Lender gives
written notice of the commencement of foreclosure proceedings;
- 22 -
23
(4) causing or permitting waste to occur on, in or about the Property, and
failure to maintain the Property, excepting ordinary wear and tear;
(5) loss by fire or casualty to the extent not compensated by insurance
proceeds collected by Lender;
(6) the return to Lender of all unearned advance rentals and security
deposits paid by tenants of the Property and not refunded to or
forfeited by such tenants;
(7) the return to Borrower of any and all fees paid to Borrower by tenants
of the Property which fees permit tenants to terminate their leases;
(8) the return of, or reimbursement for, all personalty owned by Borrower
taken from the Property by or on behalf of Borrower, out of the
ordinary course of business, and not replaced by items of equal or
greater value than the original value of the personalty so removed;
(9) all court costs and Reasonable Attorneys' Fees actually incurred which
are provided for in the Note or in any other Loan Document governing,
securing or pertaining to the payment of the Note; and
(10) (i) the removal of any chemical, material or substance, exposure to

Security Agreement of even date herewith (hereinafter referred to as the
"Security Deed") encumbering the Real Property and other Property more
specifically described in the Security Deed (all of which property is referred
to herein and in the Security Deed as the "Property"), which Deed secures the
payment of a Real Estate Note A and Real Estate Note B of even date herewith in
the aggregate amount of FOUR MILLION ONE HUNDRED THOUSAND AND NO/100 DOLLARS
($4,100,000.00) made by Assignor as Maker to and in favor of Assignee as Holder
(hereinafter collectively referred to as the "Note");
WHEREAS, Assignee, as a condition to making the aforesaid loan and to
obtain additional security therefor, has required the execution of this
Assignment by Assignor; and
NOW THEREFORE, in order further to secure the payment of the indebtedness
of Assignor to Assignee evidenced by the Note, and secured by the Security
Deed, and in further consideration of the sum of TEN AND NO/100 DOLLARS
($10.00) in hand paid by Assignee to Assignor, the receipt and sufficiency of
which are hereby acknowledged, Assignor does hereby sell, assign, transfer and
set over unto Assignee all of the leases (and guarantees thereof), rents,
issues, profits and income of, from or pertaining to the Property, including,
but not limited to any fees that permit the tenant to terminate its lease which
fees are payable to the landlord under the terms and conditions of any of the
Property's leases. This Assignment shall include any and all leases or rental
agreements and guarantees thereof that may now be in effect specifically
including without limitation those leases and guarantees set forth in Exhibit B
attached hereto and by this reference made a part hereof, as well as any future
or additional leases or rental agreements and guarantees thereof, and any
renewals or extensions of the same, that may be entered into by Assignor.

the Property until a default has occurred under the Note, the Security Deed or
any other instrument evidencing or securing the Note. Upon the occurrence of a
default, the license shall cease automatically, without need of notice,
possession, foreclosure or any other act or procedure, and all leases, rents,
issues, profits and income assigned hereby shall thereafter be payable to

the Security Deed, this Assignment and all other instruments executed by
Assignor to and in favor of Assignee as further evidence of or as additional
security for the indebtedness (hereinafter together referred to as the "Loan
Documents"), then this Assignment and the estates and interests hereby granted
and created shall terminate.
REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF ASSIGNOR
1. In furtherance of the foregoing assignment, Assignor:
A. Represents and warrants that it is the owner in fee simple of the
Property and has good title to the leases, rents, income, issues and
profits hereby assigned and good right to assign the same, and that, except
for a mortgage loan being paid off concurrently with the execution hereof,
no other person, entity, firm or corporation has any right, title or
interest therein; that Assignor has not previously sold, assigned,
transferred, mortgaged or pledged said rents, issues, profits, income and
leases of the Property; and that payment of any of the same has not
otherwise been anticipated, waived, released, discounted, set off or
otherwise discharged or compromised.
B. Agrees and warrants that, without the prior written consent of the
Assignee, except for matters normally occurring in connection with the
operation of a garden apartment community, the terms of any and all leases
will not be amended, altered, modified or changed in any manner whatsoever,
nor will they be surrendered or canceled, nor will any proceedings for
dispossession or eviction of any lessee under said leases be instituted by
Assignor.
C. Agrees and warrants that no request will be made of any lessee to
pay any rent, and no rent will be accepted by Assignor, for more than one
month in advance of the date such rent becomes due and payable under the
terms of any and all leases, it being agreed between Assignor and Assignee
that rent shall be paid as provided in said leases and not otherwise. The
foregoing shall not prevent Assignor from charging and collecting security
deposits from each tenant leasing space on the Real Property.
D. Authorizes Assignee, by and through its employees or agents or a
duly appointed receiver, at its option, after the occurrence of a default
under this Assignment, the Note, the Security Deed or any of the Loan
Documents, to enter upon the Property and to collect, in the name of
Assignor, as its lawful attorney, or in its own name as assignee, any
rents, income or profits accrued but unpaid and/or in arrears at the date
of such default, as well as the rents, income or profits thereafter
accruing and becoming payable during the period of the continuation of the
said default or any other default. To this end, Assignor further agrees
that it will cooperate with and facilitate, in all reasonable ways,
Assignee's collection of said rents, income or profits and will, upon
request by Assignee, execute a written notice to each tenant, occupant or
licensee directing said tenant, occupant or licensee to pay directly to
Assignee all income, rents and profits due and payable under said leases;
provided, however, that Assignee may notify said tenant, occupant or
licensee of the effectiveness of this Assignment without giving notice to
Assignor or requesting Assignor to give such notice or join in such notice.
E. Authorizes Assignee, upon such entry as specified in "D." above, at
its option, to take over and assume the management, operation and
maintenance of the Property and to perform all acts necessary and proper,
and to expend such sums out of the income of the Property as in Assignee's
sole discretion may be reasonable or necessary in connection therewith, in
the same manner and to the same extent as Assignor theretofore might do.
Assignor hereby releases all claims against Assignee arising out of such
management, operation and maintenance.
F. Agrees to execute, upon the request of the Assignee, any and all
other instruments requested by the Assignee to effectuate this Assignment
or to accomplish any
- 2 -
31
other purpose deemed by the Assignee to be necessary or appropriate in
connection with, this Assignment.
G. Agrees and acknowledges that nothing in this Assignment shall be
construed to limit or restrict in any way the rights and powers granted to
Assignee in the Note, the Security Deed or any of the other Loan Documents.
The collection and application of the rents, issues and profits as
described herein shall not constitute a waiver of any default which might
at the time of application or thereafter exist under the Note, the Security
Deed or any of the other Loan Documents, and the exercise by Assignee of
the rights herein provided shall not prevent Assignee's exercise of any
rights provided under the Note, the Security Deed or any of the other Loan
Documents.
ASSIGNEE'S RIGHTS FOLLOWING DEFAULT BY ASSIGNOR
2. Assignee may, after the occurrence of a default as hereinabove provided,
from time to time, appoint and dismiss such agents or employees as shall be
necessary or reasonable for the collection of the rents, issues and profits
derived from the Property and for the proper care and operation of the Property,
and Assignor hereby grants to Assignee the authority to give such agents or
employees so appointed full and irrevocable authority on Assignor's behalf to
manage the Property and to do all acts relating to such management, including,
without limitation, the entry into and execution of new leases in the name of
the Assignor or otherwise, the alteration or amendment of existing leases, the
authorization to repair or replace any items necessary in order to maintain the
building or buildings and chattels incidental thereto in good and tenantable
condition, and the effectuation of such alterations or improvements as in the
judgment of the Assignee may be reasonable or necessary to maintain or increase
the income from the Property. Assignee shall have the sole control of such
agents or employees, whose remuneration shall be paid out of the rents, issues
and profits as hereinabove provided, at the rate of compensation accepted in the
community wherein the Property is situated.
APPLICATION BY ASSIGNEE OF NET INCOME FROM THE PROPERTY
3. Assignee shall, after payment of all charges and expenses enumerated
under Paragraph 2 above, and after retaining sufficient sums to meet taxes,
assessments, utilities and insurance coverages in requisite amounts (including
liability, fire and extended coverage), credit the net income received by
Assignee from the Property, by virtue of this Assignment, to any amounts due
and owing to Assignee by Assignor under and pursuant to the terms of the Note
and the Security Deed, but the manner of the application of such net income
shall be determined in the sole discretion of Assignee. Assignee shall make a
reasonable effort to collect rents, income and profits, reserving, however,
within its sole discretion, the right to determine the method of collection and
the extent to which enforcement of the collection of delinquent rents, income
and profits shall be prosecuted. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no such credit
shall be given by Assignee for any sum or sums received from the rents, issues
and profits of the Property until the sums collected are actually received by
Assignee at its principal office as stated above (or at such other place as
Assignee shall designate in writing), and no credit shall be given for any
uncollected rents or other uncollected amounts or bills, nor shall credit be
given for any rents, issues and profits derived from the Property under any
order of court or by operation of law until such amounts are actually received
by Assignee at its principal offices stated above. The net amount of income
received by Assignee hereunder applied by Assignee to the amounts due and owing
by the Assignor shall not serve to cure any default under the Note, the
Security Deed or any of the Loan Documents, nor shall any amounts received by
Assignee hereunder be in full satisfaction of the indebtedness evidenced by the
Note unless such amounts are sufficient to pay such indebtedness in full
(including any prepayment premiums, late payment charges, and advancements) in
accordance with the terms of the Note, the Security Deed and the other Loan
Documents.
LIMITATION OF ASSIGNEE'S LIABILITY
4. Assignee shall not be obligated to perform or discharge any obligation
under the leases hereby assigned or under or by reason of this Assignment, and
Assignor hereby agrees to indemnify and hold Assignee harmless against any and
all liability, loss or damage which Assignee might incur under the leases or
under or by reason of this Assignment and of and from
- 3 -
32
any and all claims and demands whatsoever which may be asserted against Assignee
by reason of any alleged obligation or undertaking on Assignee's part to perform
or discharge any of the terms of such leases, except for claims and demands
arising by reason of Assignee's gross negligence or willful misconduct.
REINSTATEMENT AFTER DEFAULT
5. In the event that Assignor shall, with the consent of Assignee,
reinstate the indebtedness evidenced by the Note completely in good standing,
having complied with all the terms, covenants and conditions of the Note,
Security Deed, this Assignment and all of the other Loan Documents, then, in
such event, Assignee shall return possession of the Property to Assignor, and
Assignor shall remain in possession of the Property unless and until another
default occurs under the Note, the Security Deed, this Assignment or any of the
other Loan Documents, at which time Assignee may, at its option, again take
possession of the Property under authority of and pursuant to the terms and
provisions of this Assignment.
TENANT'S NOTIFICATION OF ASSIGNMENT
6. Upon request by Assignee, at any time, Assignor will deliver a written
notice to each of the tenants and lessees of the Property, which notice shall
inform such tenants and lessees of this Assignment and instruct them that upon
receipt of notice by them from Assignee of the existence of a default by
Assignor under the Note, the Security Deed or any of the other Loan Document,
all rent due thereafter shall be paid directly to Assignee.
SATISFACTION OF SECURITY DEED; SATISFACTION OF ASSIGNMENT
7. This Assignment shall remain in full force and effect as long as the
indebtedness evidenced by the Note and secured by the Security Deed remain
unpaid in whole or in part. It is understood and agreed that a complete
release or satisfaction of the aforesaid Security Deed shall operate as a
complete release or satisfaction of all of Assignee's rights and interest
hereunder, and that satisfaction of the Security Deed shall operate to satisfy
this Assignment.
EXCULPATION
8. The liability of Assignor with respect to the payment of principal and
interest under the Note shall be "non-recourse" and, accordingly, Assignee's
source of satisfaction of said indebtedness and Assignor's other obligations
hereunder and under the other Loan Documents shall be limited to the Property
and Assignee's receipt of the rents, issues and profits from the Property, and
Assignee shall not seek to procure payment out of any other assets of Assignor
or any person or entity comprising Assignor, nor to seek judgment (except as
hereinafter provided) for any sums which are or may be payable under the Note
or under any of the other Loan Documents, as well as any claim or judgment
(except as hereafter provided) for any deficiency remaining after foreclosure
of the Security Deed. Notwithstanding the above, nothing herein contained
shall be deemed to be a release or impairment of the indebtedness evidenced by
the Note or the security therefor intended by the other Loan Documents or be
deemed to preclude Assignee from exercising its rights to foreclose, or to
exercise the power of sale contained in, the Security Deed or to enforce any of
its other rights or remedies under the Loan Documents.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is expressly understood and agreed that
the aforesaid limitation on liability shall in no way affect or apply to
Assignor's continued personal liability for:
(A) fraud or intentional misrepresentation made in or in connection
with the Note or any of the other Loan Documents governing, securing
or pertaining to the payment thereof;
(B) failure to pay taxes prior to delinquency or to pay assessments
prior to delinquency or to pay charges for labor, materials or other
charges which can create liens on any portion of the Property;

behalf of Assignor subsequent to the date on which Assignee gives
written notice of the commencement of foreclosure proceedings;
(D) causing or permitting waste to occur on, in or about the Property, and
failure to maintain the Property, excepting ordinary wear and tear;
(E) loss by fire or casualty to the extent not compensated by insurance
proceeds collected by Assignee;
(F) the return to Assignee of all unearned advance rentals and security
deposits paid by tenants of the Property and not refunded to or
forfeited by such tenants;
(G) the return to Assignor of any and all fees paid to Assignee by tenants
of the Property which fees permit tenants to terminate their leases;
(H) the return of, or reimbursement for, all personalty owned by Assignor
taken from the Property by or on behalf of Assignor out of the ordinary
course of business, and not replaced by personalty of equal or greater
value than the original value of the personalty so removed;
(I) all court costs and Reasonable Attorneys' Fees actually incurred which
are provided for in the Note or in any other Loan Document governing,
securing or pertaining to the payment of the Note;

other agreement to hold the Assignee harmless from and against any and
all losses, liabilities, damages, injuries, costs, expenses of any and
every kind arising under Paragraph 3 of the Security Deed or under
that certain Environmental Indemnity Agreement from Assignor to
Assignee of even date herewith. Assignor shall not be liable hereunder
if such materials were placed on the Property subsequent to the date of
foreclosure of the Security Deed by Assignee or acceptance of a deed in
lieu thereof, or relinquishment of control of the Property pursuant to
a transfer approved in writing by Assignee; provided such transferee
assumes in writing all obligations of Maker pertaining to the Loan
Documents. Liability under this subparagraph shall extend beyond
repayment of the Note and compliance with the terms of the Security
Deed, unless at such time Assignor provides Assignee with an
environmental assessment report acceptable to Assignee showing the
Property to be free of Hazardous Materials and not in violation of
Hazardous Waste Laws (as defined in the Security Deed). Assignor shall
bear the burden of proof in establishing the date on which any such
Hazardous Materials were placed or appeared in, on or under the
Property.
(K) (a) any and all costs incurred in order to cause the Property to comply
with the applicable accessibility provisions of The Fair Housing Act of
1988, as the same may now or hereafter be amended, and any and all
rules and regulations that may now or hereafter be promulgated in
connection with said acts, and (b) any indemnity or other agreement to
hold the Assignee harmless from and against any and all losses,
liabilities, damages, injuries, costs and expenses of any and every
kind arising under Paragraph 3 of the Security Deed regarding
accessibility for the disabled or handicapped or under the
Accessibility Indemnity Agreement from Assignor to Assignee of even
date herewith; provided, however, Assignor shall not be liable for
compliance with any accessibility laws that first become effective, or
for any

violation of any accessibility laws resulting from alterations or
improvements to the Property that are performed, subsequent to
Assignee's actually taking possession of the Property pursuant to
foreclosure of the Security Deed or acceptance of a deed in lieu
thereof, or subsequent to any transfer of ownership of the Property
that has the prior written approval of Assignee; provided that such
transferee assumes in writing all obligations of Assignor with respect
to compliance with accessibility laws under the Security Deed and
Accessibility Indemnity Agreement.
(L) Obligations of Assignor for the face amount of any Letter of Credit
held by Assignee and delivered by Assignor in connection with the loan evidenced
by the Note in the event Assignor is unable to collect the full amount of said

shall not be applicable, and Assignor shall be fully liable for Assignor's
obligations hereunder, as well as under the Note, the Security Deed and the
other Loan Documents, in the event there is a default by Assignor under Section
30 or Section 31 of the Security Deed.
