Governmental Authority”) which has jurisdiction over the Trust Property and all covenants, restrictions and conditions now or later of record, in each of the foregoing cases which may be applicable to any of the Trust Property, or to the use, manner of use, occupancy, possession, operation, maintenance, alteration, repair or reconstruction of any of the Trust Property. All present and future laws, statutes, codes, ordinances, orders, judgments, decrees, rules, regulations and requirements of every Governmental Authority applicable to Grantor or to any of the Trust Property and all covenants, restrictions, and conditions which now or later may be applicable to any of the Trust Property are collectively referred to as the “Legal Requirements”. Grantor shall have the right, at Grantor’s sole cost and expense, to contest or object to the validity of any Legal Requirements by appropriate legal proceedings, but such right shall not be deemed or construed in any way as relieving, modifying or extending Grantor’s covenants to comply therewith as provided in this Section 3(a), provided, that Grantor has given prior written notice to Beneficiary of Grantor’s intent so to contest and provided, further that, (i) Grantor shall demonstrate to Beneficiary’s reasonable satisfaction that the legal proceedings shall operate conclusively to prevent the sale or forfeiture of the Trust Property, or any part thereof, for failure to comply with such Legal Requirements prior to final determination of such proceedings; (ii) if during such contest a lien or cloud of title shall exist with respect to any of the Trust Property, Grantor shall provide Beneficiary with good and sufficient bond or other security reasonably satisfactory to Beneficiary in an amount equal to the aforesaid lien or cloud of title, or if the amount thereof is uncertain, in an amount reasonably satisfactory to Beneficiary, and (iii) Beneficiary shall not be subject either to civil or criminal liability for any failure by Beneficiary to comply with such Legal Requirements during the pendency of such contest.
          (b) From and after the date of this Deed of Trust, Grantor shall not by act or omission permit any building or other improvement on any premises not subject to this Deed of Trust to rely on the Premises or any part thereof or any interest therein to fulfill any Legal Requirement, and Grantor hereby assigns to Beneficiary any and all rights to give consent for all or any portion of the Premises or any interest therein to be so used. Grantor shall not by act or omission impair the integrity of any of the Real Estate as a parcel separate and apart from all other premises. Grantor represents that each parcel of the Real Estate constitutes a legal lot, in compliance with all subdivision laws and similar Legal Requirements. Any act or omission by Grantor which would result in a violation of any of the provisions of this subsection shall be void.
          4. Payment of Taxes and Other Impositions. (a) Except as set forth in paragraph (d) below, promptly when due, Grantor shall pay and discharge all taxes relating to the ownership and use of the Real Estate (including, without limitation, all real and personal property, transfer and gains taxes), all charges for any easement or agreement maintained for the benefit of any of the Trust Property, all general and special assessments, levies, permits, inspection and license fees, all water and sewer rents and charges and all other public charges even if unforeseen or extraordinary, imposed upon or assessed against or which may become a lien on any of the Trust Property, or arising in respect of the occupancy, use or possession thereof, together with any penalties or interest on any of the foregoing (all of the foregoing are collectively referred to as the “Impositions”). Upon request by Beneficiary, Grantor shall deliver to Beneficiary (i) original or copies of receipted bills and cancelled checks evidencing payment of such Imposition if it is a real estate tax or other public charge and (ii) evidence reasonably acceptable to Beneficiary showing the payment of any other such Imposition. If by law any Imposition, at Grantor’s option, may be paid in installments (whether or not interest shall accrue on the unpaid balance of such Imposition), Grantor may elect to pay such Imposition in such installments and shall be responsible for the payment of such installments with interest, if any.
          (b) Except as set forth in paragraph (d) below, nothing herein shall affect any right or remedy of Trustee or Beneficiary under this Deed of Trust or otherwise, without notice or demand to

5


 

Grantor, to pay any Imposition after the date such Imposition (or installments thereof, if Grantor elected to pay in installments as above provided) shall have become due, and to add to the Term Loan Secured Obligations the amount so paid, together with interest from the time of payment at the Default Rate. Any sums paid by Trustee or Beneficiary in discharge of any Impositions shall be (i) a charge on the Premises secured hereby prior to any right or title to, interest in, or claim upon the Premises subordinate to the lien of this Deed of Trust, and (ii) payable on demand by Grantor to Trustee or Beneficiary, as the case may be, together with interest at the Default Rate as set forth above.
          (c) Grantor shall not claim, demand or be entitled to receive any credit or credits toward the satisfaction of this Deed of Trust or on any interest payable thereon for any taxes assessed against the Trust Property or any part thereof, and shall not claim any deduction from the taxable value of the Trust Property by reason of this Deed of Trust.
          (d) Grantor shall have the right before any delinquency occurs to contest or object in good faith to the amount or validity of any Imposition by appropriate legal proceedings, but such right shall not be deemed or construed in any way as relieving, modifying, or extending Grantor’s covenant to pay any such Imposition at the time and in the manner provided in this Section unless (x) (i) Grantor has given prior written notice to Beneficiary of Grantor’s intent so to contest or object to an Imposition, (ii) Grantor shall demonstrate to Beneficiary’s reasonable satisfaction that the legal proceedings shall operate conclusively to prevent the sale of the Trust Property, or any part thereof, to satisfy such Imposition prior to final determination of such proceedings and (iii) Grantor shall furnish a good and sufficient bond or surety or other security reasonably satisfactory to Beneficiary in the amount of the Impositions which are being contested plus any interest and penalty which may be imposed thereon and which could become a charge against the Real Estate or any part of the Trust Property or (y) such Imposition is of a type that is permitted under Section 11.3 of the Credit Agreement.
          (e) Upon written notice to Grantor, Beneficiary after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default (as defined below) shall be entitled to require Grantor to pay monthly in advance to Beneficiary the equivalent of 1/12th of the estimated annual Impositions. Beneficiary may commingle such funds with its own funds and Grantor shall not be entitled to interest thereon.
          5. Insurance. (a) Unless Beneficiary may otherwise agree, Grantor shall maintain or cause to be maintained on all of the Premises:
          (i) property insurance against loss or damage by fire, lightning, windstorm, hail, water damage, earthquake and by such other further risks and hazards, excluding acts of terrorism, as now are or subsequently may be covered by an “all risk” policy or a fire policy covering “special” causes of loss commonly maintained by businesses similar to Grantor. Grantor shall use its best efforts to obtain building ordinance law endorsements in the policy. The policy limits shall be automatically reinstated after each loss except for such coverages, as flood or earthquake, which are sublimited;
          (ii) comprehensive general liability insurance under a policy including the “broad form CGL endorsement” (or which incorporates the language of such endorsement), covering all claims for personal injury, bodily injury or death, or property damage occurring on, in or about the Premises in an amount not less than $10,000,000 combined single limit with respect to personal injury and property damage relating to any one occurrence plus such excess limits as Beneficiary shall reasonably request from time to time;

6


 

          (iii) when and to the extent reasonably required by Beneficiary, insurance against loss or damage by any other risk commonly insured against by persons occupying or using like properties in the locality or localities in which the Real Estate is situated;
          (iv) insurance against business interruption, if applicable, in amounts reasonably satisfactory to Beneficiary;
          (v) during the course of any construction or repair of Improvements, comprehensive general liability insurance (including coverage for elevators and escalators, if any) under a policy including the “broad form CGL endorsement” (or which incorporates the language of such endorsement). The policy shall include coverage for independent contractors and completed operations. The completed operations coverage shall stay in effect for two years after construction of any Improvements has been completed. The policy shall provide coverage on an occurrence basis against claims for personal injury, including, without limitation, bodily injury, death or property damage occurring on, in or about the Premises and the adjoining streets, sidewalks and passageways, such insurance to afford immediate minimum protection to a combined single limit of not less than $10,000,000 with respect to personal injury, bodily injury or death to any one or more persons or damage to property;
          (vi) during the course of any construction or repair of the Improvements, workers’ compensation insurance (including employer’s liability insurance) for all employees of Grantor engaged on or with respect to the Premises in such amounts as are established by law;
          (vii) during the course of any construction, addition, alteration or repair of the Improvements, builder’s risk completed value form insurance or other insurance providing the same coverage against “all risks of physical loss,” including collapse, water damage, flood and earthquake and transit coverage, during construction or repairs of the Improvements, with deductible reasonably approved by Beneficiary, covering the total value of work performed and equipment, supplies and materials furnished (with an appropriate limit for soft costs in the case of construction);
          (viii) boiler and machinery property insurance covering pressure vessels, air tanks, boilers, machinery, pressure piping, heating, air conditioning and elevator equipment and escalator equipment, provided the Improvements contain equipment of such nature in such amounts as are normal and usual for a business of similar size and complexity as Grantor;
          (ix) if any portion of the Premises are located in an area identified as a special flood hazard area by the Federal Emergency Management Agency or other applicable agency, flood insurance in an amount which is available and reasonably satisfactory to Beneficiary, but in no event less than the maximum limit of coverage available under the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968, as amended; and
          (x) such other insurance in such amounts as Beneficiary may reasonably request from time to time.
Unless Beneficiary may otherwise agree, each insurance policy (other than flood insurance written under the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968, as amended, in which case to the extent available) shall (i) provide that it shall not be cancelled, non-renewed or materially amended without 10-days prior written notice to Beneficiary, and (ii) with respect to all property insurance, provide for property damage

7


 

deductibles not to exceed $500,000, contain a “Replacement Cost Endorsement” without any deduction made for depreciation and with no co-insurance penalty (or attaching an agreed amount endorsement reasonably satisfactory to Beneficiary), with loss payable solely to the Beneficiary (modified to the extent available under such policy, to provide that proceeds in the amount of replacement cost may be retained by Beneficiary without the obligation to rebuild) when an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing; if no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, with loss in excess of $1,000,000 payable solely to Beneficiary (modified, if necessary, to provide that proceeds shall be applied by Beneficiary toward the cost of rebuilding the Improvements) as its interest may appear, without contribution, under a “standard” or “New York” mortgagee clause reasonably acceptable to Beneficiary and be written by insurance companies having an A.M. Best Company, Inc. rating of A or higher and a financial size category of not less than X, or otherwise as approved by Beneficiary. Liability insurance policies shall name Beneficiary (and Trustee, if Trustee shall so request) as an additional insured and contain a waiver of subrogation against Beneficiary (and Trustee, if Trustee shall so request); all such policies shall indemnify and hold Beneficiary (and Trustee, if Trustee shall so request) harmless from all liability claims occurring on, in or about the Premises and the adjoining streets, sidewalks and passageways. Each policy shall expressly provide that any proceeds which are payable to Beneficiary shall be paid by check payable to the order of Beneficiary only and requiring the endorsement of Beneficiary only. If any required insurance shall expire, be withdrawn, become void by breach of any condition thereof by Grantor or by any lessee of any part of the Trust Property or become void or unsafe by reason of the failure or impairment of the capital of any insurer, or if for any other reasonable reason whatsoever such insurance shall become unsatisfactory to Beneficiary, Grantor shall promptly obtain new or additional insurance reasonably satisfactory to Beneficiary. Grantor shall not take out any separate or additional insurance which is contributing in the event of loss unless it is properly endorsed and otherwise reasonably satisfactory to Beneficiary in all respects.
          (b) Grantor shall deliver to Beneficiary a certificate of insurance reasonably acceptable to Beneficiary, on or prior to the Closing Date. Grantor shall (i) pay as they become due all premiums for such insurance and (ii) not later than 15 days prior to the expiration of each policy evidenced pursuant to the provisions of this Section, deliver certificates of insurance, or duplicate original or originals thereof, evidencing that such coverage was renewed in accordance with the provisions of this section. Upon request of Beneficiary, Grantor shall use its best efforts to cause its insurance underwriter or broker to certify to Beneficiary in writing that all the requirements of this Deed of Trust governing insurance have been satisfied.
          (c) If Grantor is in default of its obligations to insure or deliver any such prepaid policy or policies or insurance certificate, then Beneficiary, at its option and without notice, may effect such insurance from year to year, and pay the premium or premiums therefor, and Grantor shall pay to Beneficiary on demand such premium or premiums so paid by Beneficiary with interest from the time of payment at the Default Rate and the same shall be deemed to be secured by this Deed of Trust and shall be collectible in the same manner as the Term Loan Secured Obligations secured by this Deed of Trust.
          (d) Grantor shall increase the amount of property insurance required to equal 100% replacement cost pursuant to the provisions of this Section at the time of each renewal of each policy (but not later than 12 months from the date of this Deed of Trust and each successive 12 month period to occur thereafter) by using the F.W. Dodge Building Index or similar index used by Grantor’s insurance carriers to determine whether there shall have been an increase in the replacement value since the most recent adjustment and, if there shall have been such an increase, the amount of insurance required shall be adjusted accordingly.

          (e) Grantor promptly shall comply with and conform to (i) all provisions of each such insurance policy, and (ii) all requirements of the insurers applicable to Grantor or to any of the Trust Property or to the use, manner of use, occupancy, possession, operation, maintenance, alteration or repair of any of the Trust Property. Grantor shall not use or permit the use of the Trust Property in any manner which would permit any insurer to cancel any insurance policy or void coverage required to be maintained by this Deed of Trust.
          (f) If the Trust Property, or any part thereof, shall be destroyed or damaged by fire or any other casualty, whether insured or uninsured, or in the event any material claim is made against Grantor for any personal injury, bodily injury or property damage incurred on or about the Real Estate, Grantor shall promptly give notice thereof to Beneficiary. If no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Grantor shall have the right to adjust such loss, and the insurance proceeds relating to such loss shall be paid over to Grantor; provided that Grantor shall, promptly after any such damage, repair all such damage regardless of whether any insurance proceeds have been received or whether such proceeds, if received, are sufficient to pay for the costs of repair. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, then Grantor authorizes and empowers Beneficiary, at Beneficiary’s option and in Beneficiary’s sole discretion, as attorney-in-fact for Grantor, to make proof of loss, to appear in and prosecute any action arising from any policy, to collect and receive insurance proceeds and to deduct therefrom Beneficiary’s expenses incurred in the collection process. Each insurance company concerned is hereby authorized and directed to make payment for such loss in excess of $500,000 directly to Beneficiary. Beneficiary shall have the right to require Grantor to repair or restore the Trust Property, and Grantor hereby designates Beneficiary as its attorney-in-fact for the purpose of making any election required or permitted under any insurance policy relating to repair or restoration. The insurance proceeds or any part thereof received by Beneficiary may be applied by Beneficiary toward reimbursement of all costs and expenses of Beneficiary in collecting such proceeds, and the balance, at Beneficiary’s option in its sole and absolute discretion if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, to the payment and performance of the Term Loan Secured Obligations, to the restoration or repair of the property damaged, or released to Grantor. In the event Beneficiary elects to release such proceeds to Grantor, Grantor shall be obligated to use such proceeds to restore or repair the Trust Property. If no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, then the insurance proceeds or any part thereof received by Beneficiary shall be applied by Beneficiary toward reimbursement of all costs and expenses of Beneficiary in collecting such proceeds and the balance, if any, in the following order: first to the repair or restoration of the damaged property and then to the payment and performance of the Term Loan Secured Obligations, to fulfill any other obligation of Grantor, or released to the Grantor. Application by Beneficiary of any insurance proceeds toward the last maturing installments of principal and interest due or to become due on account of the Term Loan Secured Obligations shall not excuse Grantor from making any regularly scheduled payments due thereunder, nor shall such application extend or reduce the amount of such payments.
          (g) Upon written notice to Grantor, Beneficiary after the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default shall be entitled to require Grantor to pay monthly in advance to Beneficiary the equivalent of 1/12th of the estimated annual premiums due on such insurance. Beneficiary may commingle such funds with its own funds and Grantor shall not be entitled to interest thereon.
          (h) Grantor may maintain insurance required under this Deed of Trust by means of one or more blanket insurance policies maintained by Grantor; provided, however, that the protection afforded under any such blanket policy shall be no less than that which would have been afforded under a separate policy or policies relating only to the Trust Property.

If Beneficiary elects not to participate in such condemnation proceeding, then Grantor shall, at its expense, diligently prosecute any such proceeding and shall consult with Beneficiary, its attorneys and experts and cooperate with them in any defense of any such proceedings. All awards and proceeds of condemnation shall be assigned to Beneficiary to be applied in the same manner as insurance proceeds, as provided above, and Grantor agrees to execute any such assignments of all such awards as Beneficiary may reasonably request.

          (f) In the event of the enforcement by Beneficiary of any remedy under this Deed of Trust, the lessee under each Lease shall, if requested by Beneficiary or any other person succeeding to the interest of Beneficiary as a result of such enforcement, attorn to Beneficiary or to such person and shall recognize Beneficiary or such successor in interest as lessor under the Lease without change in the provisions thereof, provided however, that Beneficiary or such successor in interest shall not be: (i) bound by any payment of an installment of rent or additional rent which may have been made more than 30 days before the due date of such installment; (ii) bound by any amendment or modification to the Lease made without the consent of Beneficiary (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) or such successor in interest; (iii) liable for any previous act or omission of Grantor (or its predecessors in interest); (iv) responsible for any monies owing by Grantor to the credit of such lessee or subject to any credits, offsets, claims, counterclaims, demands or defenses which the lessee may have against Grantor (or its predecessors in interest); (v) bound by any covenant to undertake or complete any construction of the Premises or any portion thereof, or (vi) obligated to make any payment to such lessee other than any security deposit actually delivered to Beneficiary or such successor in interest.

          12. Further Assurances/Estoppel Certificates. To further assure Beneficiary’s and Trustee’s rights under this Deed of Trust, Grantor agrees promptly upon written request of Beneficiary or Trustee to do any act or execute any additional documents (including, but not limited to, security agreements on any personalty included or to be included in the Trust Property and a separate assignment of each Lease in recordable form) as may be reasonably required by Beneficiary or Trustee to confirm the rights or benefits conferred on Beneficiary or Trustee by this Deed of Trust. Grantor, within 10 business days after written request, shall deliver, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Beneficiary, a written statement, duly acknowledged, setting forth the amount of the Term Loan Secured Obligations, and whether any offsets, claims, counterclaims or defenses exist against the Term Loan Secured Obligations and certifying as to such other matters as Beneficiary shall reasonably request.

          16. Remedies. (a) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, Beneficiary may immediately take such action, without notice or demand, as it deems advisable to protect and enforce its rights against Grantor and in and to the Trust Property, including, but not limited to, the following actions, each of which may be pursued concurrently or otherwise, at such time and in such manner as Beneficiary may determine, in its sole discretion, without impairing or otherwise affecting the other rights and remedies of Beneficiary:
          (i) Beneficiary may elect to foreclose under power of sale, in which case it shall be lawful for, and the duty of, Trustee, upon receipt by Trustee of a written declaration of default and demand for sale by Beneficiary, to sell (and, in case of any default of any purchaser, resell) the Trust Property, in whole or in part or parcels (without regard to the right of any party to a marshalling of assets, Grantor hereby expressly waiving any such right), such sale in whole or in part or parcels to be determined by Trustee in his sole discretion (Grantor hereby expressly consenting thereto), at public venue to the highest bidder for cash at the door of the Court House then customarily employed for that purpose in the city where the Real Estate is located, after having given such notice of hearing as to commencement of foreclosure proceedings and having

13


 

obtained such findings or leave of Court as may then be required by law and then having given such notice of the time and place of sale and a description of the property to be sold and by advertisement published as is provided by the laws of the State of North Carolina then in effect, and by such other methods, if any, as Beneficiary may deem desirable or as may be required or permitted by applicable law. The Trustee shall receive the proceeds of such sale and, after retaining a reasonable commission for his services, together with reasonable attorneys fees incurred by the Trustee in such proceeding, apply such proceeds to the cost of sale, including, but not limited to, costs of collection, taxes, assessments, costs of recording, service fees and incidental expenditures, the amount due on the Loans, Notes and other Term Loan Secured Obligations secured hereby and advancements and other sums expended by the Beneficiary according to the provisions hereof and otherwise as required by the then existing law relating to foreclosures. If permitted by the then existing law relating to foreclosures, the Trustee may sell and convey the Trust Property under the power aforesaid, although the Trustee has been, may now be or may hereafter be attorney or agent or employee of the Beneficiary with respect to the Term Loan Secured Obligations or with respect to any matter or business whatsoever. If permitted by the then existing law relating to foreclosures, Trustee may adjourn from time to time any sale by him to be made under or by virtue or this Deed of Trust by announcement at the time and place appointed for such sale or for such adjourned sale or sales; and, except as otherwise provided by any applicable provision of law, Trustee, without further notice or publication, except for any notice or publication as may be required by the then existing law, may make such sale at the time and place to which the same shall be adjourned.
          (ii) Beneficiary may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, (A) institute and maintain an action of judicial foreclosure against all or any part of the Trust Property, (B) institute and maintain an action on the Term Loan Secured Obligations, or (C) take such other action at law or in equity for the enforcement of this Deed of Trust or any of the Loan Documents as the law may allow. Beneficiary may proceed in any such action to final judgment and execution thereon for all sums due hereunder, together with interest thereon at the Default Rate and all costs of suit, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements. Interest at the Default Rate shall be due on any judgment obtained by Beneficiary from the date of judgment until actual payment is made of the full amount of the judgment.
          (iii) Beneficiary may personally, or by its agents, attorneys and employees and without regard to the adequacy or inadequacy of the Trust Property or any other collateral as security for the Term Loan Secured Obligations enter into and upon the Trust Property and each and every part thereof and exclude Grantor and its agents and employees therefrom without liability for trespass, damage or otherwise (Grantor hereby agreeing to surrender possession of the Trust Property to Beneficiary upon demand at any such time) and use, operate, manage, maintain and control the Trust Property and every part thereof. Following such entry and taking of possession, Beneficiary shall be entitled, without limitation, (x) to lease all or any part or parts of the Trust Property for such periods of time and upon such conditions as Beneficiary may, in its discretion, deem proper, (y) to enforce, cancel or modify any Lease and (z) generally to execute, do and perform any other act, deed, matter or thing concerning the Trust Property as Beneficiary shall deem appropriate as fully as Grantor might do.
          (b) Beneficiary, in any action to foreclose this Deed of Trust in a judicial procedure or in connection with the exercise of any non-judicial power of sale by Trustee, shall be entitled to the appointment of a receiver. In case of a trustee’s sale or foreclosure sale, the Real Estate may be sold, at Beneficiary’s election, in one parcel or in more than one parcel and Beneficiary is specifically empowered

14


 

(without being required to do so, and in its sole and absolute discretion) to cause successive sales of portions of the Trust Property to be held.
          (c) Upon completion of any sale or sales made by Trustee under or by virtue of this Deed of Trust and upon satisfaction of any up-set bid period required by law, Trustee shall execute and deliver to the purchaser or purchasers at such sale or sales a good and sufficient instrument, or good and sufficient instruments, conveying, assigning and transferring all estate, right, title and interest of the Trustee in and to the property and rights sold. Any such sale or sales made under the power of sale herein granted or under or by virtue of judicial proceedings or of a judgment or decree of foreclosure and sale, shall operate to divest all the estate, right, title, interest, claim and demand whatsoever, whether at law or in equity, of Grantor in and to the properties and rights to be sold, and shall be a perpetual bar both at law and in equity, of Grantor and against any and all persons claiming or who may claim the same, or any part thereof from, through or under Grantor. The purchaser at any foreclosure sale hereunder may disaffirm any easement granted or Lease made in violation of any provision of this Deed of Trust, and may take immediate possession of the Trust Property free from, and despite the terms of, such grant of easement or rental or lease agreement.
          (d) In the event of any breach of any of the covenants, agreements, terms or conditions contained in this Deed of Trust, Beneficiary or Trustee shall be entitled to enjoin such breach and obtain specific performance of any covenant, agreement, term or condition and Beneficiary and Trustee shall have the right to invoke any equitable right or remedy as though other remedies were not provided for in this Deed of Trust.
          (e) Beneficiary and/or Trustee shall apply the net proceeds of any action taken by it or Trustee pursuant to this Section 16 to the payment in whole or in part of the Term Loan Secured Obligations, in such order as the Intercreditor Agreement shall prescribe, and only after such application and after the payment by Beneficiary and/or Trustee of any other amount required by any provision of law, need Beneficiary account for the surplus, if any, to Grantor.
          17. Right of Beneficiary to Credit Sale. Upon the occurrence of any sale made under this Deed of Trust, whether made under the power of sale or by virtue of judicial proceedings or of a judgment or decree of foreclosure and sale, Beneficiary may bid for and acquire the Trust Property or any part thereof. In lieu of paying cash therefor, Beneficiary may make settlement for the purchase price by crediting upon the Term Loan Secured Obligations or other sums secured by this Deed of Trust the net sales price after deducting therefrom the expenses of sale and the cost of the action and any other sums which Beneficiary is authorized to deduct under this Deed of Trust. In such event, this Deed of Trust, the Credit Agreement, the Notes and the other Loan Documents, and documents evidencing expenditures secured hereby may be presented to the person or persons conducting the sale in order that the amount so used or applied may be credited upon the Term Loan Secured Obligations as having been paid.
          18. Trustee’s Powers and Liabilities.
          (a) Trustee, by acceptance hereof, covenants faithfully to perform and fulfill the trusts herein created, being liable, however, only for willful negligence or misconduct, and hereby waives any statutory fee and agrees to accept reasonable compensation, in lieu thereof, for any services rendered by Trustee in accordance with the terms hereof.
          (b) Trustee, may resign at any time upon giving thirty (30) days’ notice in writing to Grantor and to Beneficiary.

15


 

          (c) Beneficiary may remove Trustee at any time or from time to time and select a successor trustee. In the event of the death, removal, resignation, refusal to act, inability to act of Trustee, or absence from the State of North Carolina of Trustee, or in its sole discretion for any reason whatsoever Beneficiary, without notice and without specifying the reason therefor and without applying to any court, may select and appoint a successor trustee, and all powers, rights, duties and authority of the former Trustee, as aforesaid, shall thereupon become vested in such successor. Such substitute trustee shall not be required to give bond for the faithful performance of his duties unless required by Beneficiary. Such substitute trustee shall be appointed by written instrument duly recorded in the county where the Real Estate is located. Grantor hereby ratifies and confirms any and all acts which the herein-named Trustee, or his successor or successors in this trust, shall do lawfully by virtue hereof. Grantor hereby agrees, on behalf of itself and of its heirs, executors, administrators and assigns, that the recitals contained in any deed or deeds executed in due form by any Trustee or substitute trustee, acting under the provisions of this instrument, shall be prima facie evidence of the facts recited, and that it shall not be necessary to prove in any court, otherwise than by such recitals, the existence of the facts essential to authorize the execution and delivery of such deed or deeds and the passing of title thereby.
          (d) Trustee shall not be required to see that this Deed of Trust is recorded, nor be liable for its validity or its priority as a second deed of trust, or otherwise, nor shall Trustee be answerable or responsible for performance of observance of the covenants and agreements imposed upon Grantor or Beneficiary, by this Deed of Trust or any other agreement. Trustee, as well as Beneficiary, shall have authority in their respective discretion to employ agents and attorneys in the execution of this trust and to protect the interest of the Beneficiary hereunder, and to the extent permitted by law they shall be compensated and all expenses relating to the employment of such agents and/or attorneys, including expenses of litigation, shall be paid out of the proceeds of the sale of the Trust Property conveyed hereby should a sale be had, but if no such sale be had, all sums shall be recoverable to the extent permitted by law by all remedies at law or in equity by which the Term Loan Secured Obligations may be recovered.
          (e) At any time, or from time to time, without liability therefor and without notice, upon written request of Beneficiary and without affecting the effect of this Deed of Trust upon the remainder of the Trust Property; Trustee may (i) reconvey any part of the Trust Property, (ii) consent in writing to the making of any map or plat thereof, (iii) join in granting any easement thereon, or (iv) join in any extension agreement or any agreement subordinating the lien or charge hereof.
          19. Appointment of Receiver. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Beneficiary as a matter of right and without notice to Grantor, unless otherwise required by applicable law, and without regard to the adequacy or inadequacy of the Trust Property or any other collateral as security for the Term Loan Secured Obligations or the interest of Grantor therein, shall have the right to apply to any court having jurisdiction to appoint a receiver or receivers or other manager of the Trust Property, without requiring the posting of a surety bond unless the same is required by applicable law and without reference to the adequacy or inadequacy of the value of the Trust Property or the solvency or insolvency of Grantor or any other party obligated for payment of all or any part of the Term Loan Secured Obligations, and whether or not waste has occurred with respect to the Trust Property. Grantor hereby irrevocably consents to such appointment and waives notice of any application therefor (except as may be required by law). Any such receiver or receivers shall have all the usual powers and duties of receivers in like or similar cases and all the powers and duties of Beneficiary in case of entry as provided in this Deed of Trust, including, without limitation and to the extent permitted by law, the right to enter into leases of all or any part of the Trust Property, and shall continue as such and exercise all such powers until the date of confirmation of sale of the Trust Property unless such receivership is sooner terminated.

16


 

          20. Extension, Release, etc. (a) Without affecting the encumbrance or charge of this Deed of Trust upon any portion of the Trust Property not then or theretofore released as security for the full amount of the Term Loan Secured Obligations, Beneficiary may, from time to time and without notice, agree to (i) release any person liable for the Term Loan Secured Obligations, (ii) extend the maturity or alter any of the terms of the indebtedness or any guaranty thereof, (iii) grant other indulgences, (iv) release or reconvey, or cause to be released or reconveyed at any time at Beneficiary’s option any parcel, portion or all of the Trust Property, (v) take or release any other or additional security for any obligation herein mentioned, or (vi) make compositions or other arrangements with debtors in relation thereto. If at any time this Deed of Trust shall secure less than all of the principal amount of the Term Loan Secured Obligations, it is expressly agreed that any repayments of the principal amount of the Term Loan Secured Obligations shall not reduce the amount of the encumbrance of this Deed of Trust until the encumbrance amount shall equal the principal amount of the Term Loan Secured Obligations outstanding.
          (b) No recovery of any judgment by Beneficiary and no levy of an execution under any judgment upon the Trust Property or upon any other property of Grantor shall affect the encumbrance of this Deed of Trust or any liens, rights, powers or remedies of Beneficiary or Trustee hereunder, and such liens, rights, powers and remedies shall continue unimpaired.
          (c) If Beneficiary shall have the right to foreclose this Deed of Trust or to direct the Trustee to exercise its power of sale, Grantor authorizes Beneficiary at its option to foreclose the lien of this Deed of Trust (or direct the Trustee to sell the Trust Property, as the case may be) subject to the rights of any tenants of the Trust Property. The failure to make any such tenants parties defendant to any such foreclosure proceeding and to foreclose their rights, or to provide notice to such tenants as required in any statutory procedure governing a sale of the Trust Property by Trustee, or to terminate such tenant’s rights in such sale will not be asserted by Grantor as a defense to any proceeding instituted by Beneficiary to collect the Term Loan Secured Obligations or to foreclose this Deed of Trust.
          (d) Unless expressly provided otherwise, in the event that Beneficiary’s interest in this Deed of Trust and title to the Trust Property or any estate therein shall become vested in the same person or entity, this Deed of Trust shall not merge in such title but shall continue as a valid charge on the Trust Property for the amount secured hereby.
          21. Security Agreement under Uniform Commercial Code. (a) It is the intention of the parties hereto that this Deed of Trust shall constitute a Security Agreement within the meaning of the Uniform Commercial Code (the “Code”) of the State in which the Trust Property is located. If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing under this Deed of Trust, then in addition to having any other right or remedy available at law or in equity, Beneficiary shall have the option of either (i) proceeding under the Code and exercising such rights and remedies as may be provided to a secured party by the Code with respect to all or any portion of the Trust Property which is personal property (including, without limitation, taking possession of and selling such property) or (ii) treating such property as real property and proceeding with respect to both the real and personal property constituting the Trust Property in accordance with Beneficiary’s rights, powers and remedies with respect to the real property (in which event the default provisions of the Code shall not apply). If Beneficiary shall elect to proceed under the Code, then ten days’ notice of sale of the personal property shall be deemed reasonable notice and the reasonable expenses of retaking, holding, preparing for sale, selling and the like incurred by Beneficiary shall include, but not be limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees and legal expenses. At Beneficiary’s request, Grantor shall assemble the personal property and make it available to Beneficiary at a place designated by Beneficiary which is reasonably convenient to both parties.

17


 

          (b) Grantor and Beneficiary agree, to the extent permitted by law, that: (i) all of the goods described within the definition of the word “Equipment” are or are to become fixtures on the Real Estate; and this Deed of Trust upon recording or registration in the real estate records of the proper office shall constitute a financing statement filed as a “fixture filing” within the meaning of Sections 9-334 and 9-502 of the Code. This Deed of Trust shall be effective as a financing statement filed as a fixture filing covering the fixtures included within the Premises and is to be filed for record in the real estate records of each county where any part of the Premises (including said Fixtures) is situated. The real property to which the fixtures relate is described on Exhibit A attached hereto. The record owner of the real property described on Exhibit A attached hereto is debtor. The name of the debtor for purposes of this financing statement is the name of the Grantor set forth on the first page of this Deed of Trust, and the name of the secured party for purposes of this financing statement is the name of the Beneficiary set forth on the first page of this Deed of Trust. The mailing address of the Grantor/debtor is the address of the Grantor set forth on the first page of this Deed of Trust. The address of the Beneficiary/secured party from which information concerning the security interest hereunder may be obtained is the address of the Beneficiary as set forth on the first page of this Deed of Trust. Grantor is an organization that is a corporation organized under the laws of the state of Delaware. Grantor’s organizational identification number is 2295691.
          (c) Grantor, upon reasonable request by Beneficiary from time to time, shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to Beneficiary one or more separate security agreements, in form reasonably satisfactory to Beneficiary, covering all or any part of the Trust Property and will further execute, acknowledge and deliver, or cause to be executed, acknowledged and delivered, any financing statement, affidavit, continuation statement or certificate or other document as Beneficiary may reasonably request in order to perfect, preserve, maintain, continue or extend the security interest under and the priority of this Deed of Trust and such security instrument. Grantor further agrees to pay to Beneficiary on demand all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Beneficiary in connection with the preparation, execution, recording, filing and re-filing of any such document and all reasonable costs and expenses of any record searches for financing statements Beneficiary shall reasonably require. Grantor shall from time to time, on request of Beneficiary, deliver to Beneficiary an inventory in reasonable detail of any of the Trust Property which constitutes personal property. If Grantor shall fail to furnish any financing or continuation statement within 10 days after request by Beneficiary, then pursuant to the provisions of the Code, Grantor hereby authorizes Beneficiary, without the signature of Grantor, to execute and file any such financing and continuation statements. The filing of any financing or continuation statements in the records relating to personal property or chattels shall not be construed as in any way impairing the right of Beneficiary to proceed against any personal property encumbered by this Deed of Trust as real property, as set forth above.
          22. Assignment of Leases and Rents. Grantor hereby absolutely and unconditionally assigns, transfers, conveys and sets over to Beneficiary, the Leases and Rents as further security for the payment and performance of the Term Loan Secured Obligations, and Grantor grants to Beneficiary the right to enter the Trust Property for the purpose of collecting the Rent and to let the Trust Property or any part thereof, and to apply the Rents on account of the Term Loan Secured Obligations. The foregoing assignment and grant is present and absolute and shall continue in effect until the Aggregate Term Loan Commitment (as defined in the Credit Agreement) is terminated and the Term Loan Secured Obligations is paid in full, but Beneficiary and Trustee hereby waive the right to enter the Trust Property for the purpose of collecting the Rents and Grantor shall be entitled to collect, receive, use and retain the Rents except during the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default under this Deed of Trust; such right of Grantor to collect, receive, use and retain the Rents may be revoked by Beneficiary upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default under this Deed of Trust by giving not less

18


 

than five days’ written notice of such revocation to Grantor; in the event such notice is given, Grantor shall pay over to Beneficiary, or to any receiver appointed to collect the Rents, any lease security deposits, and shall pay monthly in advance to Beneficiary, or to any such receiver, the fair and reasonable rental value as determined by Beneficiary for the use and occupancy of the Trust Property or of such part thereof as may be in the possession of Grantor or any affiliate of Grantor, and upon default in any such payment Grantor and any such affiliate will vacate and surrender the possession of the Trust Property to Beneficiary or to such receiver, and in default thereof may be evicted by summary proceedings or otherwise. Grantor shall not accept prepayments of installments of Rent to become due for a period of more than one month in advance (except for security deposits and estimated payments of percentage rent, if any).
          23. Trust Funds. All lease security deposits of the Real Estate shall be treated as trust funds not to be commingled with any other funds of Grantor. Within 10 days after request by Beneficiary, Grantor shall furnish Beneficiary reasonably satisfactory evidence of compliance with this subsection, together with a statement of all lease security deposits by lessees and copies of all Leases not previously delivered to Beneficiary, which statement shall be certified by Grantor.
          24. Additional Rights. The holder of any subordinate lien or subordinate deed of trust on the Trust Property shall have no right to terminate any Lease whether or not such Lease is subordinate to this Deed of Trust nor shall any holder of any subordinate lien or subordinate deed of trust join any tenant under any Lease in any trustee’s sale or action to foreclose the lien or modify, interfere with, disturb or terminate the rights of any tenant under any Lease. By recordation of this Deed of Trust all subordinate lienholders and the trustees and beneficiaries under subordinate deeds of trust are subject to and notified of this provision, and any action taken by any such lienholder or trustee or beneficiary contrary to this provision shall be null and void. Upon the occurrence and continuance of any Event of Default, Beneficiary may, in its sole discretion and without regard to the adequacy of its security under this Deed of Trust, apply all or any part of any amounts on deposit with Beneficiary under this Deed of Trust against all or any part of the Term Loan Secured Obligations. Any such application shall not be construed to cure or waive any Default or Event of Default or invalidate any act taken by Beneficiary on account of such Default or Event of Default.
          25. Changes in Method of Taxation. In the event of the passage after the date hereof of any law of any Governmental Authority deducting from the value of the Premises for the purposes of taxation of any lien or deed of trust thereon, or changing in any way the laws for the taxation of mortgages or deeds of trust or debts secured thereby for federal, state or local purposes, or the manner of collection of any such taxes, and imposing a tax, either directly or indirectly, on mortgages or deeds of trust or debts secured thereby, the holder of this Deed of Trust shall have the right to declare the Term Loan Secured Obligations due on a date to be specified by not less than 30 days’ written notice to be given to Grantor unless within such 30-day period Grantor shall assume as an obligation hereunder the payment of any tax so imposed until the Aggregate Term Loan Commitment is terminated and the Term Loan Secured Obligations shall have been paid in full and such assumption shall be permitted by law.
          26. Notices. All notices, requests, demands and other communications hereunder to be effective shall be in writing or by telecopy and unless otherwise expressly provided herein, shall be deemed to have been sufficiently given or served when presented by hand or when deposited in the mail by certified or return receipt requested mail, postage prepaid, or in the case of telecopy notice, when sent, addressed to Grantor at the address given on the first page of this Deed of Trust, to Beneficiary at the address given on the first page of this Deed of Trust and to Trustee at the address given on the first page of this Deed of Trust. Any party may change its address by notice to the other party. If any party other

19


 

than Grantor shall be entitled to receive copies of notices, demands or approvals, failure of Beneficiary or Trustee to send such copies shall not impair the effectiveness of any notice sent to Grantor.
          27. No Oral Modification. This Deed of Trust may not be changed or terminated orally, but may be waived, altered, modified or amended by an instrument in writing, duly executed by the Grantor and the Beneficiary. Any agreement made by Grantor and Beneficiary after the date of this Deed of Trust relating to this Deed of Trust shall be superior to the rights of the holder of any intervening or subordinate deed of trust, lien or encumbrance. Trustee’s execution of any written agreement between Grantor and Beneficiary shall not be required for the effectiveness thereof as between Grantor and Beneficiary.
          28. Partial Invalidity. In the event any one or more of the provisions contained in this Deed of Trust shall for any reason be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision hereof, but each shall be construed as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been included. Notwithstanding to the contrary anything contained in this Deed of Trust or in any provisions of the Loan Documents, the obligations of Grantor and of any other obligor under the Loan Documents shall be subject to the limitation that Beneficiary shall not charge, take or receive, nor shall Grantor or any other obligor be obligated to pay to Beneficiary, any amounts constituting interest in excess of the maximum rate permitted by law to be charged by Beneficiary.
          29. Grantor’s Waiver of Rights. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Grantor waives the benefit of all laws now existing or that may subsequently be enacted providing for (i) any appraisement before sale of any portion of the Trust Property, (ii) any extension of the time for the enforcement of the collection of the Term Loan Secured Obligations or the creation or extension of a period of redemption from any sale made in collecting such debt and (iii) exemption of the Trust Property from attachment, levy or sale under execution or exemption from civil process. To the full extent Grantor may do so, Grantor agrees that Grantor will not at any time insist upon, plead, claim or take the benefit or advantage of any law now or hereafter in force providing for any appraisement, valuation, stay, exemption, extension or redemption, or requiring foreclosure of this Deed of Trust before exercising any other remedy granted hereunder and Grantor, for Grantor and its successors and assigns, and for any and all persons ever claiming any interest in the Trust Property, to the extent permitted by law, hereby waives and releases all rights of redemption, valuation, appraisement, stay of execution, notice of election to mature or declare due the whole of the secured indebtedness and marshalling in the event of exercise by Trustee or Beneficiary of the power of sale or other rights hereby created.
          30. Remedies Not Exclusive. Beneficiary and Trustee shall be entitled to enforce payment of the Term Loan Secured Obligations and performance of the Grantor’s obligations under the Loan Documents and to exercise all rights and powers under this Deed of Trust or under any of the other Loan Documents or other agreement or any laws now or hereafter in force, notwithstanding some or all of such obligations may now or hereafter be otherwise secured, whether by deed of trust, mortgage, security agreement, pledge, lien, assignment or otherwise. Neither the acceptance of this Deed of Trust nor its enforcement, shall prejudice or in any manner affect Beneficiary’s or Trustee’s right to realize upon or enforce any other security now or hereafter held by Beneficiary or Trustee, it being agreed that Beneficiary and Trustee shall be entitled to enforce this Deed of Trust and any other security now or hereafter held by Beneficiary or Trustee in such order and manner as Beneficiary may determine in its absolute discretion. No remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to Trustee or Beneficiary is intended to be exclusive of any other remedy herein or by law provided or permitted, but each shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in

20


 

equity or by statute. Every power or remedy given by any of the Loan Documents to Beneficiary or Trustee or to which either may otherwise be entitled, may be exercised, concurrently or independently, from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient by Beneficiary or Trustee, as the case may be. In no event shall Beneficiary or Trustee, in the exercise of the remedies provided in this Deed of Trust (including, without limitation, in connection with the assignment of Rents, or the appointment of a receiver and the entry of such receiver on to all or any part of the Trust Property), be deemed a “mortgagee in possession,” and neither Beneficiary nor Trustee shall in any way be made liable for any act, either of commission or omission, in connection with the exercise of such remedies, except for their own bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct.
          31. Multiple Security. If (a) the Premises shall consist of one or more parcels, whether or not contiguous and whether or not located in the same county, or (b) in addition to this Deed of Trust, Beneficiary shall now or hereafter hold or be the beneficiary of one or more additional mortgages, liens, deeds of trust or other security (directly or indirectly) for the Term Loan Secured Obligations upon other property in the State in which the Premises are located (whether or not such property is owned by Grantor or by others) or (c) both the circumstances described in clauses (a) and (b) shall be true, then to the fullest extent permitted by law, Beneficiary may, at its election, commence or consolidate in a single trustee’s sale or foreclosure action all trustee’s sale or foreclosure proceedings against all such collateral securing the Term Loan Secured Obligations (including the Trust Property), which action may be brought or consolidated in the courts of, or sale conducted in, any county in which any of such collateral is located. Grantor acknowledges that the right to maintain a consolidated trustee’s sale or foreclosure action is a specific inducement to Beneficiary to extend the Loans, and Grantor expressly and irrevocably waives any objections to the commencement or consolidation of the foreclosure proceedings in a single action and any objections to the laying of venue or based on the grounds of forum non conveniens which it may now or hereafter have. Grantor further agrees that if Trustee or Beneficiary shall be prosecuting one or more foreclosure or other proceedings against a portion of the Trust Property or against any collateral other than the Trust Property, which collateral directly or indirectly secures the Term Loan Secured Obligations, or if Beneficiary shall have obtained a judgment of foreclosure and sale or similar judgment against such collateral (or, in the case of a trustee’s sale, shall have met the statutory requirements therefor with respect to such collateral), then, whether or not such proceedings are being maintained or judgments were obtained in or outside the State in which the Premises are located, Beneficiary may commence or continue any trustee’s sale or foreclosure proceedings and exercise its other remedies granted in this Deed of Trust against all or any part of the Trust Property and Grantor waives any objections to the commencement or continuation of a foreclosure of this Deed of Trust or exercise of any other remedies hereunder based on such other proceedings or judgments, and waives any right to seek to dismiss, stay, remove, transfer or consolidate either any action under this Deed of Trust or such other proceedings on such basis. The commencement or continuation of proceedings to sell the Trust Property in a trustee’s sale, to foreclose this Deed of Trust or the exercise of any other rights hereunder or the recovery of any judgment by Beneficiary or the occurrence of any sale by the Trustee in any such proceedings shall not prejudice, limit or preclude Beneficiary’s right to commence or continue one or more trustee’s sales, foreclosure or other proceedings or obtain a judgment against (or, in the case of a trustee’s sale, to meet the statutory requirements for, any such sale of) any other collateral (either in or outside the State in which the Real Estate is located) which directly or indirectly secures the Term Loan Secured Obligations, and Grantor expressly waives any objections to the commencement of, continuation of, or entry of a judgment in such other sales or proceedings or exercise of any remedies in such sales or proceedings based upon any action or judgment connected to this Deed of Trust, and Grantor also waives any right to seek to dismiss, stay, remove, transfer or consolidate either such other sales or proceedings or any sale or action under this Deed of Trust on such basis. It is expressly understood and agreed that to the fullest extent permitted by law, Beneficiary may, at its election, cause

21


 

the sale of all collateral which is the subject of a single trustee’s sale or foreclosure action at either a single sale or at multiple sales conducted simultaneously and take such other measures as are appropriate in order to effect the agreement of the parties to dispose of and administer all collateral securing the Term Loan Secured Obligations (directly or indirectly) in the most economical and least time-consuming manner.
          32. Expenses; Indemnification. (a) Grantor shall pay or reimburse Trustee and Beneficiary for all reasonable expenses incurred by Beneficiary or Trustee before and after the date of this Deed of Trust with respect to any and all transactions contemplated by this Deed of Trust including without limitation, the preparation of any document reasonably required hereunder or any amendment, modification, restatement or supplement to this Deed of Trust, the delivery of any consent, non-disturbance agreement or similar document in connection with this Deed of Trust or the enforcement of any of Beneficiary’s or Trustee’s rights. Such expenses shall include, without limitation, all title and conveyancing charges, recording and filing fees and taxes, mortgage taxes, intangible personal property taxes, escrow fees, revenue and tax stamp expenses, insurance premiums (including title insurance premiums), title search and title rundown charges, brokerage commissions, finders’ fees, placement fees, court costs, surveyors’, photographers’, appraisers’, architects’, engineers’, consulting professional’s, accountants’ and attorneys’ fees and disbursements. Grantor acknowledges that from time to time Grantor may receive statements for such expenses, including without limitation attorneys’ fees and disbursements. Grantor shall pay such statements promptly upon receipt.
          (b) If (i) any sale (or any prerequisite to a sale), action or proceeding shall be commenced by Beneficiary or Trustee (including but not limited to any sale of the Trust Property, or any action to foreclose this Deed of Trust or to collect the Term Loan Secured Obligations), or any action or proceeding is commenced to which Beneficiary or Trustee is made a party, or in which it becomes necessary to defend or uphold the rights granted by this Deed of Trust (including, without limitation, any proceeding or other action relating to the bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization of any Guarantor), or in which Beneficiary or Trustee is served with any legal process, discovery notice or subpoena and (ii) in each of the foregoing instances such action or proceeding in any manner relates to or arises out of this Deed of Trust or Beneficiary’s lending to Grantor or any of the transactions contemplated by this Deed of Trust, then Grantor will promptly reimburse or pay to Beneficiary and Trustee all of the reasonable expenses which have been or may be incurred by Beneficiary and Trustee, respectively, with respect to the foregoing (including reasonable counsel fees and disbursements), together with interest thereon at the Default Rate, and any such sum and the interest thereon shall be included in the Term Loan Secured Obligations and have the full benefit of this Deed of Trust, prior to any right, or title to, interest in or claim upon the Trust Property attaching or accruing to this Deed of Trust, and shall be deemed to be secured by this Deed of Trust. In any action or proceeding to sell the Trust Property, to foreclose this Deed of Trust, or to recover or collect the Term Loan Secured Obligations, the provisions of law respecting the recovering of costs, disbursements and allowances shall prevail unaffected by this covenant.
          (c) Grantor shall indemnify and hold harmless each of Beneficiary and Trustee and each of their respective affiliates, and the respective directors, officers, agents and employees of each of Beneficiary and Trustee and each of their respective affiliates from and against all claims, damages, losses and liabilities (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) arising out of or based upon any matter related to this Deed of Trust, the Trust Property or the occupancy, ownership, maintenance or management of the Trust Property by Grantor, including, without limitation, any claims based on the alleged acts or omissions of any employee or agent of Grantor, other than any such claims, damages, losses and liabilities arising from the gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith thereof.

22


 

This indemnification shall be in addition to any other liability which Grantor may otherwise have to Beneficiary or Trustee.
          33. Successors and Assigns. All covenants of Grantor contained in this Deed of Trust are imposed solely and exclusively for the benefit of Beneficiary and Trustee and their respective successors and assigns, and no other person or entity shall have standing to require compliance with such covenants or be deemed, under any circumstances, to be a beneficiary of such covenants, any or all of which may be freely waived in whole or in part by Beneficiary or Trustee at any time if in the sole discretion of either of them such waiver is deemed advisable. All such covenants of Grantor shall run with the land and bind Grantor, the successors and assigns of Grantor (and each of them) and all subsequent owners, encumbrancers and tenants of the Trust Property, and shall inure to the benefit of Beneficiary, Trustee and their respective successors and assigns. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, any successor to Trustee appointed by Beneficiary shall succeed to all rights of Trustee as if such successor had been originally named as Trustee hereunder. The word “Grantor” shall be construed as if it read “Grantors” whenever the sense of this Deed of Trust so requires and if there shall be more than one Grantor, the obligations of the Grantors shall be joint and several.
          34. No Waivers, etc. Any failure by Beneficiary to insist upon the strict performance by Grantor of any of the terms and provisions of this Deed of Trust shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any of the terms and provisions hereof, and Beneficiary or Trustee, notwithstanding any such failure, shall have the right thereafter to insist upon the strict performance by Grantor of any and all of the terms and provisions of this Deed of Trust to be performed by Grantor. Beneficiary may release, regardless of consideration and without the necessity for any notice to or consent by the beneficiary of any subordinate deed of trust or the holder of any subordinate lien on the Trust Property, any part of the security held for the obligations secured by this Deed of Trust without, as to the remainder of the security, in anywise impairing or affecting this Deed of Trust or the priority of this Deed of Trust over any subordinate lien or deed of trust.
          35. Authority of Beneficiary. The Grantor acknowledges that the rights and responsibilities of the Beneficiary under this Deed of Trust with respect to any action taken by the Beneficiary or the exercise or non-exercise by the Beneficiary of any right or remedy provided for herein or resulting or arising out of this Deed of Trust shall, as between the Beneficiary and the Lenders, be governed by the Credit Agreement, but, as between the Beneficiary and the Grantor, the Beneficiary shall be conclusively presumed to be acting with full and valid authority so to act or refrain from acting, and the Grantor shall be under no obligation or entitlement to make any inquiry respecting such authority.
          36. Governing Law, etc. This Deed of Trust shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State in which the Premises are located, except that Grantor expressly acknowledges that by their respective terms the Credit Agreement and any Notes issued thereunder shall be governed and construed in accordance with the laws of the state of New York, without regard to principles of conflict of law, and for purposes of consistency, Grantor agrees that in any in personam proceeding related to this Deed of Trust the rights of the parties to this Deed of Trust shall also be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the state of New York governing contracts made and to be performed in that state, without regard to principles of conflict of law.
          37. Waiver of Trial by Jury. Grantor, Trustee and Beneficiary each hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waive trial by jury in any action, claim, suit or proceeding relating to this Deed of Trust and for any counterclaim brought therein.

23


 

          38. Certain Definitions. Unless the context clearly indicates a contrary intent or unless otherwise specifically provided herein, words used in this Deed of Trust shall be used interchangeably in singular or plural form and the word “Grantor” shall mean “each Grantor or any subsequent owner or owners of the Trust Property or any part thereof or interest therein,” the word “Beneficiary” shall mean “Beneficiary or any subsequent Collateral Agent for the Lenders pursuant to the Credit Agreement,” the word “Trustee” shall mean “Trustee and any successor trustee hereunder,” the word “Notes” or “Credit Agreement” shall mean “the Notes, the Credit Agreement or any other evidence of indebtedness secured by this Deed of Trust”, the word “person” shall include any individual, corporation, partnership, trust, unincorporated association, government, governmental authority, or other entity, and the words “Trust Property” shall include any portion of the Trust Property or interest therein. Whenever the context may require, any pronouns used herein shall include the corresponding masculine, feminine or neuter forms, and the singular form of nouns and pronouns shall include the plural and vice versa. The captions in this Deed of Trust are for convenience or reference only and in no way limit or amplify the provisions hereof.
          39. Receipt of Copy. Grantor acknowledges that it has received a true copy of this Deed of Trust.
          40. Present and Future Advances. This Deed of Trust secures all present and future loan disbursements or advances made by the Lenders under the Loan Documents, and all other sums from time to time owing to the Lenders by the Borrower under the Loan Documents and under the secured indebtedness. The amount of the present disbursement or advance secured hereby is Eight Hundred and Forty Million Dollars ($840,000,000.00), and the maximum principal amount which may be secured hereby at any one time is Nine Hundred and Sixty Million Dollars ($960,000,000.00). The time period within which such future disbursements or advances are to be made is the period between the date hereof and the date fifteen (15) years from the date hereof. Disbursements or advances secured hereby shall not be required to be evidenced by a “written instrument or notation” as described in Section 45-68(2) of the North Carolina General Statutes, it being the intent of the parties that the requirements of Section 45-68(2) for a “written instrument or notation” for each advance or disbursement shall not be applicable to disbursements or advances made under the Loan Documents and under the secured indebtedness.
          41. Miscellaneous. Grantor represents and warrants that this Deed of Trust is not a purchase money mortgage as defined in North Carolina General Statutes Section 45-21.38, the North Carolina Anti-Deficiency Statute.
          42. Attorneys’ Fees. All references to “attorneys’ fees” or to “reasonable attorneys’ fees” herein and in the other Loan Documents shall be deemed to be “reasonable attorneys’ fees,” and as used herein, and in any other Loan Documents to the extent North Carolina law applies thereto, the phrase “reasonable attorneys’ fees” and similar phrases shall mean attorneys’ fees at standard hourly rates actually incurred, without giving effect to the statutory presumption set forth in Section 6-21.2 of the North Carolina General Statutes.
