1.9     Seller Remedies. If a Default Event listed in Section 1.8(b) – (e) occurs Seller must notify Buyer and allow Buyer thirty (30) days to cure the Default Event (“Cure Period”). If the Default Event is not cured within the Cure Period or the Default Event in Section 1.8(a) occurs then Buyer is in Default and Seller may at its sole option exercise any or all of the following remedies:

 

    (a)    Seller will have the right, at its sole discretion, to request, in writing, that the Designated Agent deliver the CTR Shares to the custody of the Seller and pursue at Seller’s option any and all deficiency that might result only after the Cure Period has expired or the Default Event in Section 1.8(a) has occurred. Seller must notify Buyer of Seller’s request for the delivery of the CTR Shares. Seller must provide proof of certified mailing of Buyer’s notice of Default to the Designated Agent at the time of the request.

 

    (b)    Seller understands alterations to the property will be necessary for the implementation of the business plan referenced in Section 2.0(j). Seller and Buyer agree to discuss all improvements to the property and mutually agree upon any CTR properties or facilities that will need to be returned to the original condition at the time of the closing of this purchase. As Buyer is required to notify Seller of changes to the property in Section 1.8(c)-(d), if Seller does not state an objection to the improvement within fifteen (15) days of notice, then that improvement will not be required to be reverted to the original condition in the event of Default. Buyer will have sixty (60) days to revert the property to the original condition in the event of Default. If the CTR property and facilities are not returned to the original condition as of the time of closing of this purchase, Seller may pursue any and all costs associated with bringing the property and facilities back to the original condition.

Each Party to this Agreement agrees that it will not issue any press release or make any other public announcement regarding the execution or the terms of this Agreement, or regarding any relationship or transaction between the Parties hereto, without the prior consent of the other Party, which will not be unreasonably withheld. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 4.3 shall not prevent Buyer from complying with its reporting obligations under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission thereunder, provided that Buyer shall give Seller a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on any report that Buyer intends to file thereunder to the extent such report refers to this Agreement or to Seller or to any relationship or transaction between the Parties hereto.

   5.2    Dispute Resolution. In the event of any claim, conflict, controversy, disagreement or dispute between the Parties arising out of, or related in any way to, this Agreement (“Dispute”), and prior to serving notice of any material breach, the Parties are required first to attempt resolution of such Dispute in accordance with the escalation procedures set forth in this Section 5.2.

 

(a)   Direct Negotiation. The Parties shall attempt in good faith to resolve within thirty (30) days any Dispute not resolved in the regular course of business by informal negotiations between executives of the Parties having direct responsibility within their respective organizations for the administration of this Agreement upon written notice by one Party to the other requesting such negotiation. All offers, promises, conduct and statements, whether oral or written, made in the course of the negotiations by any of the Parties, their agents, employees, experts and attorneys are confidential, privileged and inadmissible for any purpose, including impeachment, in any proceeding involving the Parties, provided that evidence that is otherwise admissible or discoverable shall not be rendered inadmissible or non-discoverable as a result of its use in the mediation.

 

 

15 of 21
 

 

(b)   Mediation. (i) If the Parties are unable to resolve a Dispute in the manner provided in Section 5.2 (b), the Parties shall initiate mediation. The Parties shall attempt to reach agreement on a mediator within fifteen (15) days after the expiration of the Initial Negotiation Period. If the Parties do not reach agreement on a mediator within that period, either Party may request that the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) appoint a mediator as provided in its mediation rules. The Parties shall cooperate with AAA and with one another in selecting a mediator from AAA’s panel of neutral third Parties and in promptly scheduling the mediation proceedings. The Parties covenant that they will participate in the mediation in good faith and that they will share equally in its costs. All offers, promises, conduct and statements, whether oral or written, made in the course of the mediation by any of the Parties, their agents, employees, experts and attorneys and by the mediator or any AAA employees are confidential, privileged and inadmissible for any purpose, including impeachment, in any proceeding involving the Parties, provided that evidence that is otherwise admissible or discoverable shall not be rendered inadmissible or non-discoverable as a result of its use in the mediation. The Parties agree to engage in at least one “cooling off period” of twenty-four (24) hours between mediation sessions prior to ending the mediation process. If the Dispute is not resolved within thirty (30) days from the date of the submission of the Dispute to mediation (or such later date as the Parties may mutually agree in writing), either Party may submit the dispute to Arbitration as provided for in subsection (d) below by providing to the other Party a written request for arbitration as contemplated by paragraph (d)(2) below and the Rules.

 

(c)   Arbitration. Any Dispute that is not resolved via mediation as set forth in subsection (b) above shall be exclusively and definitively resolved through final and binding arbitration, it being the intention of the Parties that this is a broad form arbitration agreement designed to encompass all possible disputes.

 

(i) Rules. The arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with the commercial arbitration rules (as then in effect) of the AAA (the “Rules”).

 

(ii) Number of Arbitrators. The arbitration shall be conducted by three (3) arbitrators, unless both Parties to the dispute agree to a sole arbitrator within thirty (30) calendar days after the filing of the arbitration. For greater certainty, for purposes of this section, the filing of the arbitration means the date on which the claimant’s written request for arbitration is received by the other Parties to the dispute.

 

(iii) Method of Appointment of the Arbitrators.

 

(1) If the arbitration is to be conducted by a sole arbitrator, then the arbitrator will be jointly selected by the Parties. If the Parties fail to agree on the arbitrator within thirty (30) calendar days after the filing of the arbitration, or fail to agree to extend this deadline, then the AAA shall appoint the arbitrator.

 

16 of 21
 

  

 

(2) If the arbitration is to be conducted by three arbitrators, each Party shall appoint one arbitrator from a list of AAA-approved arbitrators within thirty (30) calendar days of the filing of the arbitration, and the two arbitrators so appointed shall select the presiding arbitrator within thirty (30) calendar days after the latter of the two arbitrators has been appointed by the Parties. If a Party fails to appoint its Party-appointed arbitrator or if the two Party-appointed arbitrators cannot reach an agreement on the presiding arbitrator within the applicable time period, then the AAA shall appoint the remainder of the three arbitrators not yet appointed.

 

(iv) Place of Arbitration. Unless otherwise agreed by the Parties, the place of arbitration shall be Dallas, Texas.

 

(v) Governing Law. The arbitration will be conducted pursuant to the procedural and substantive laws of the State of Texas.

 

(vi) Language. The arbitration proceedings shall be conducted in the English language and the arbitrator(s) shall be fluent in the English language.

 

(vii) Entry of Judgment. The award of the arbitral tribunal shall be final and binding. Judgment on the award of the arbitral tribunal maybe entered and enforced by any court of competent jurisdiction.

 

(viii) Notice. All notices required for any arbitration proceeding shall be deemed properly given if sent in accordance with Section 5.1.

 

(ix) Qualifications and Conduct of the Arbitrators. All arbitrators shall be and remain at all times wholly impartial, and, once appointed, no arbitrator shall have any ex parte communications with any of the Parties concerning the arbitration or the underlying dispute other than communications directly concerning the selection of the presiding arbitrator, where applicable.

 

(x) Interim Measures. Either Party may apply to a court for interim measures (i) prior to the constitution of the arbitral tribunal (and thereafter as necessary to enforce the arbitral tribunal’s rulings) or (ii) in the absence of the jurisdiction of the arbitral tribunal to rule on interim measures in a given jurisdiction. The Parties agree that seeking and obtaining such interim measures shall not waive the right to arbitration. The arbitrators (or in an emergency the presiding arbitrator acting alone in the event one or more of the other arbitrators is unable to be involved in a timely fashion) may grant interim measures including injunctions, attachments and conservation orders in appropriate circumstances, which measures may be immediately enforced by court order. Hearings on requests for interim measures may be held in person, by telephone, by video conference or by other means that permit the Parties to present evidence and arguments.

 

17 of 21
 

 

 

(xi) Costs and Attorneys’ Fees. The arbitral tribunal is authorized to award costs and attorneys’ fees and to allocate them between the Parties. The costs of the arbitration proceedings, including attorneys’ fees, shall be borne in the manner determined by the arbitral tribunal.

 

(xii) Interest. The award shall include interest, as determined by the arbitral tribunal, from the date of any default or other breach of this Agreement until the arbitral award is paid in full. Interest shall be awarded at a rate equal to the most recently available consensus prime rate as published in The Wall Street Journal plus two percent (2%), not to exceed the highest rate allowed by law.

 

(xiii) Currency of Award. The arbitral award shall be made and payable in United States dollars, free of any tax or other deduction.

 

(xiv) Exemplary Damages. The Parties waive their rights to claim or recover, and the arbitral tribunal shall not award, any punitive, multiple, or other exemplary damages (whether statutory or common law), except to the extent such damages have been awarded to a third Party and are subject to allocation between or among the Parties to the dispute.

 

(xv) Waiver of Challenge to Decision or Award. To the extent permitted by law, any right to appeal or challenge any arbitral decision or award, or to oppose enforcement of any such decision or award before a court or any governmental authority, is hereby waived by the Parties, except with respect to the limited grounds for modification or non-enforcement provided by any applicable arbitration statute or treaty.

 

(xvi) Confidentiality. All negotiations, mediation, and arbitration relating to a Dispute (including a settlement resulting from negotiation or mediation, an arbitral award, documents exchanged or produced during a mediation or arbitration proceeding, and memorials, briefs or other documents prepared for the arbitration) are confidential and may not be disclosed by the Parties, their employees, officers, directors, affiliates, counsel, consultants, and expert witnesses, except to the extent necessary to enforce this section or any arbitration award, to enforce other rights of a Party, or as required by law; provided, however, that breach of this confidentiality provision shall not void any settlement or award.

 

5.3    Assignment. This Agreement and the other agreements entered into by the Parties in connection herewith will be binding on the Parties hereto and their respective heirs, estates, guardians, executors, administrators, successors and assigns; provided, however, other than the Parties and their respective heirs, estates, guardians, executors, administrators, successors and assigns, nothing in this Agreement express or implied, is intended to confer upon any other Person any rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement. This Agreement may only be assigned with the approval and consent of Seller. Seller agrees not to withhold such consent if: (i) the assignee is Dynamis Energy, LLC, an Idaho limited liability company (“Dynamis”), or an affiliate of the Buyer jointly owned by Dynamis, (ii) such assignee agrees in writing to assume the obligations of this Agreement and the Closing Documents; and (iii) the assignee provides suitable guarantees of the Buyer's obligations of this Agreement and the Closing Documents to the reasonable satisfaction of the Seller.

 

18 of 21
 

 

 

5.4    Independent Parties. The Parties shall at all times be independent Parties. Neither Party is an employee, joint venture, agent or partner of the other; neither Party is authorized to assume or create any obligations or liabilities, express or implied, on behalf of or in the name of the other.

 

5.5    Survival. The Agreement in its entirety will survive the Closing until the final payment made under the Payment Schedule in Article 1 and Exhibit C.

 

5.6    Severability. If any term of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, void or unenforceable, then (a) such provision will be interpreted, construed or reformed to the extent reasonably required to render the same valid, enforceable and consistent with the original intent underlying such provision; (b) such provision will remain in effect to the extent it is not invalid or unenforceable; and (c) the remainder of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be invalidated.

 

5.7    Waiver. A delay or failure in enforcing any right or remedy afforded hereunder or by law shall not prejudice or operate to waive that right or remedy or any other right or remedy for a future breach of this Agreement, whether of a like or different character.

 

5.8    Governing Law. This Agreement, including any Exhibits attached hereto, shall be construed in accordance with the substantive and procedural laws of the United States and the State of Texas applicable to agreements executed and wholly performed therein, without regard to rules or principles of conflict of laws that might require the application of the laws of any other jurisdiction.

 

5.9    Entire Agreement. This Agreement, including any Exhibits attached hereto, sets forth the entire agreement between the Parties and supersedes all contracts, proposals or agreements, whether oral or in writing, and all negotiations, discussions and conversations, between the Parties with respect to the subject matter contained in this Agreement. Any policies, agreements or understandings made between the Parties relating to the subject matter of this Agreement and not explicitly set forth in this Agreement are void and unenforceable. This Agreement may be amended, supplemented or modified only by a written instrument duly executed by or on behalf of each Party hereto.

To the Board of Directors of

C. C. Crawford Retreading Co., Inc.

Ennis, TX

 

We have compiled the accompanying statement of assets, liabilities, and stockholder's equity-income tax basis of C. C. Crawford Retreading Co., Inc. (a corporation) as of December 31, 2014 and the related statement of revenues and expenses-income tax basis for the twelve months then ended. We have not audited or reviewed the accompanying financial statements and, accordingly, do not express an opinion or provide any assurance about whether the financial statements are in accordance with the income tax basis of accounting.

 

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with the income tax basis of accounting and for designing, implementing, and maintaining internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements.

 

Our responsibility is to conduct the compilation in accordance with Statements on Standards for Accounting and Review Services issued by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. The objective of a compilation is to assist management in presenting financial information in the form of financial statements without undertaking to obtain or provide any assurance that there are no material modifications that should be made to the financial statements.

 

Management has elected to omit substantially all of the disclosures ordinarily included in financial statements prepared in accordance with the income tax basis of accounting. If the omitted disclosures were included in the financial statements, they might influence the user's conclusions about the corporation's assets, liabilities, equity, revenues, and expenses. Accordingly, the financial statements are not designed for those who are not informed about such matters.

SECURED PROMISSORY NOTE

 

Section 1.      The Principal. AS HEREINAFTER STATED, for value received, Freestone Resources, Inc., (“Maker”) promises to pay to Infinity Web Systems, Inc. 401K Profit Sharing Plan (herein called “Lender”) at 1912 Maya Pradera Lane, Moorpark, CA 93021, or any other place that the Holder of the Secured Promissory Note (“Holder”) may designate in writing, the sum of ONE MILLION TWENTY THOUSAND DOLLARS ($1,020,000) in legal and lawful money of the United States of America, or the then outstanding principal amount hereof, together with interest on any principal amounts remaining unpaid hereunder from date hereof until maturity at the rate of twelve percent (12.00%) per annum until the Secured Promissory Note (the “Note”) is paid in full.

Section 2.      Interest. Interest charges will be calculated on amounts outstanding hereunder for actual days said amounts are outstanding on the basis of a 365 day year for the actual number of days elapsed. At each payment date and at maturity date interest then payable shall be calculated from the beginning date on the unpaid amount of Note outstanding from time to time to such date at the annual rate of interest over the elapsed term of the Note, provided that (1) any interest previously paid shall be deducted from the interest then payable, and (2) the total interest plus fees and charges paid to Lender or Holder payable through such date shall not exceed the maximum amount of interest Lender or Holder lawfully may charge on this Note from the beginning date to such date. Unpaid and past due amount of Note, principal and interest, shall bear interest at THE MAXIMUM LAWFUL RATE OF INTEREST PER ANNUM.

Section 3.      Payment. This Note together with interest due therein, is payable as follows: (1) On or before June 23, 2016 one year of accrued interest of ONE HUNDRED TWENTY-TWO THOUSAND FOUR HUNDRED DOLLARS ($122,400.000) shall be due and payable and (2) thereafter, beginning on June 23, 2016, and continuing thereafter on the first (1st) day of each month, twelve regular monthly installments of principal and interest of THIRTY-FOUR THOUSAND NINE HUNDRED NINETY-ONE DOLLARS AND TWENTY-NINE CENTS ($34,991.29), followed by twenty four regular monthly installments of principal and interest of THIRTY-THREE THOUSAND TWO HUNDRED FOURTEEN DOLLARS AND THIRTY-ONE CENTS ($33,214.31) each shall be made with the total principal and all accrued interest fully paid and amortized over the remaining thirty six (36) months continuing regularly and monthly thereafter until June 23, 2019 at which time, principal and interest then remaining unpaid, shall be then due and payable; interest being calculated on the unpaid principal to the date of each installment paid and the payment made credited first to the discharge of the interest accrued and the balance to the reduction of the principal.

If the Holder has not received the full amount of any scheduled payment by the end of five (5) calendar days after the date it is due, Maker will pay a late charge (“Late Fee”) to the Holder. The amount of the Late Fee shall be five percent (5%) of Maker's overdue payment of principal and interest. Maker will pay this late charge promptly, but only once on each late payment. If the payment is not made within thirty (30) days from the date specified, Maker shall be in default. Holder and/or Lender agree(s) to notify Maker in writing no later than fifteen (15) days prior to default when a Late Fee has been incurred.

 
 

 

Section 4.      Prepayment. Maker reserves the right to prepay this Note in any amount at any time prior to maturity without penalty. However, at the Lender's or Holder's option, all voluntary prepayments shall be applied to future installments in inverse order of maturity.

Section 5.      Governing Law. This Note shall be governed by and construed in accordance with Texas law and applicable federal law. The parties hereto intend to conform strictly to the applicable usury laws. In no event, whether by reason of demand for payment, prepayment, acceleration of the maturity hereof or otherwise, shall the interest contracted for, charged or received by Lender or any Holder of this Note hereunder or otherwise exceed the maximum amount permissible under applicable law. If from any circumstance whatsoever interest would otherwise be payable to Lender or any Holder of this Note in excess of the maximum lawful amount, the interest payable to Lender or any Holder of this Note shall be reduced automatically to the maximum amount permitted by applicable law. If Lender or any Holder of this Note shall ever receive anything of value deemed interest under applicable law which would apart from this provision be in excess of the maximum lawful amount, an amount equal to any amount which would have been excessive interest shall be applied to the reduction of the principal amount owing hereunder in the inverse order of its maturity and not to the payment of interest, or if such amount which would have been excessive interest exceeds the unpaid balance of principal hereof, such excess shall be refunded to Maker. All interest paid or agreed to be paid to Lender or any Holder of this Note shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated, and spread throughout the full stated term (including any renewal or extension) of such indebtedness so that the amount of interest on account of such indebtedness does not exceed the maximum permitted by applicable law. The provisions of this paragraph shall control all existing and future agreements between Maker, Lender and/or any Holder of this Note.

Section 6.      Collateral. Payment hereof is secured by one hundred percent (100%) of the common stock of C.C. Crawford Retreading Company, Inc. being purchased by Maker hereunder and including all common or preferred stock or equity instrument of any kind or manner, including but not limited to stock, warrants, options and convertible note, issued by C. C. Crawford Retreading Company, Inc. (the “CTR shares”) after the date of this Note as specified in the Stock Purchase Agreement (the “SPA”) signed on this same date. The CTR shares being purchased hereunder have been delivered to the Designated Agent under the SPA and will remain in the Agent’s possession until payment in full of the Note and notification by Lender or Holder to return the CTR shares to Maker. The Maker shall not authorize or vote its shares in favor of any action that would cause any dilution of the CTR Shares through any common or preferred stock or equity instrument of any kind or manner, including but not limited to stock, warrants, options or convertible note, to be issued by C. C. Crawford Retreading Company, Inc.

Payment hereof is secured by a Second Deed of Trust, Security Agreement and Financing Statement of even date herewith executed by the Maker hereof to Massengill Schanfish, PLLC, Trustee, a copy of which is attached hereto as Appendix A (the “Deed of Trust”), secured by the real estate described in said Deed of Trust.

Section 8. Recourse. Failure to pay any part of principal and interest of this Note when due, or in the performance of any obligation in any instrument securing or collateral to this Note, shall authorize the Lender or any Holder of this Note to declare the whole of the same due and payable and said Lender or any Holder of this Note may proceed to enforce payment of the same and exercise any and all the rights and remedies provided by the laws of the State of Texas as well as all other rights and remedies possessed by the Lender pursuant to the terms of the SPA.

If this Note is placed in an attorney's hands for collection or collected by a suit or through a bankruptcy, or probate, or any other court, either before or after maturity, then in any of said events, the Maker agrees to pay to the Lender or any Holder of this Note the reasonable costs of collection, expenses, and attorneys' fees paid or incurred in connection with the collection or enforcement of this Note, whether or not suit is filed, and the costs of any suit and any attorneys' fees adjudged by a court in any action to enforce payment of this Note or any part of it.

To have and to hold the mortgaged property unto Trustee, his successors in this trust and his assigns, forever, and Grantors do hereby bind Grantors, their respective heirs, legal representatives, successors and assigns, to warrant and forever defend the mortgaged property unto Trustee, his successors and assigns, forever, against the claim or claims of all persons whomsoever claiming or to claim the same, or any part thereof.

 

This conveyance is made in trust, however, to secure and enforce the payment of the promissory note(s) herein described of even date herewith, executed by Grantors payable to the order of Beneficiary, such note providing in effect, that if certain defaults occur, for the payment of the unpaid principal thereof and payment of all attorney’s fees and other expenses of collection under certain circumstances, and to secure the performance of all covenants and agreements of Grantors herein.

 

This Deed of Trust shall secure, in addition to the Note, all funds hereafter advanced by Beneficiary to or for the benefit of Grantors, as contemplated by any covenant or provision herein contained or for any other purpose, and all other indebtedness, of whatever kind or character, owing or which may hereafter become owing by Grantors to Beneficiary, whether such indebtedness is direct or indirect, primary or secondary, fixed or contingent, or arises out of or is evidenced by note, deed of trust, open account, overdraft, endorsement, surety agreement, guaranty, otherwise, it being contemplated that Grantors may hereafter become indebted to Beneficiary in further sum or sums (all of the aforesaid, including all amounts payable under the Note, being hereafter sometimes called "said indebtedness"). Said indebtedness shall be payable at the above stated address of Beneficiary or to such other place as Beneficiary may hereafter direct in writing; and, unless otherwise provided in the instrument evidencing said indebtedness, shall bear interest at the same rate per annum as the Note bears, from date of accrual of said indebtedness until paid. In addition, any and all attorney's fees and expenses of collection payable under the terms of the Note shall be and constitute a part of said indebtedness secured hereby. This Deed of Trust shall also secure all renewals, are arrangements and extensions of any said indebtedness.

 
 

 

 

In order to better secure payment of said indebtedness, and to secure performance of Grantors’ covenants and agreements set forth herein, Grantors do hereby jointly and severally covenant and agree with Beneficiary and with Trustee as follows:

 

(1) Grantors shall pay all of said indebtedness, together with the interest and other appurtenant charges thereon, when the same shall become due, in accordance with the terms of the Note and all other instruments evidencing said indebtedness or evidencing any renewals, rearrangements or extensions of the same, or any part thereof.

 

(2) Grantors represent and warrant that they have in their own right good and indefeasible title in fee simple to the above described land, that the mortgaged property is free from encumbrance superior to the liens and security interests hereby erected, except as to the superior lien of First State Bank of Rice as referenced in the Note and accompanying Stock Purchase Agreement, and unless otherwise herein provided, and that Grantors have full right and authority to make this conveyance. Grantors agree to maintain and preserve their legal existence and all related rights, franchises and privileges. Grantors shall at all times comply with and perform all obligations under any applicable laws, statues, regulations or ordinances relating to the mortgaged property and Grantors use and operation thereof.

 

(3) Grantors shall keep all buildings and other property covered by this Deed of Trust insured against fire and lightning with extended coverage and against such other risks as Beneficiary may require all in amounts shall be at least equal to the lesser of either the indebtedness or 100% of full insurable value, such insurance to be written in form and with companies acceptable to Beneficiary pursuant to the Texas standard mortgagee clause, without contribution, and shall deliver the policies of insurance to Beneficiary promptly as issued. Such policies shall provide, by way of riders, endorsements or otherwise that the insurance provided thereby shall not be terminated, reduced or otherwise limited regardless of any breach of the representations and agreements set forth therein and that no such policy shall be canceled, endorsed or amended to any extent unless the issuer thereof shall have first given Beneficiary at least 30 days' prior written notice. In case Grantors fail to furnish such policies, Beneficiary at its option may procure such insurance at Grantors' expense. All renewal and substitute policies of insurance shall be delivered to the office of Beneficiary, premiums paid, at least ten (10) days before termination of the insurance protection replaced by such renewal or substituted policies. In case of loss, Beneficiary, at its option, shall be entitled to receive and retain the proceeds of the insurance policies, applying the, same toward payment of said indebtedness as Beneficiary shall see fit, or at Beneficiary's option, Beneficiary may pay the same over wholly or in part to Grantors for the repair of said building or buildings, or for the erection of a new building or buildings in their place, or for any other purpose satisfactory to Beneficiary, but Beneficiary shall not be obligated to see to proper application of any amount paid over to Grantors. If Beneficiary elects to allow payment of all or part of such proceeds to Grantors, such insurance proceeds payable to them are sufficient to pay the costs of repair and restoration of the mortgaged property, they shall promptly commence and carry out the repair, replacement, restoration and rebuilding of any and all of the mortgaged property damaged or destroyed by fire or other casualty so as to return same, to the extent practicable, to its condition immediately prior to such damage to or destruct ion thereof. Grantors shall not permit or carry on any activities within or relating to the mortgaged property that is prohibited by the terms of any insurance policy covering any part of the mortgaged property or which permits cancellation of or increase in the premium payable for any insurance policy covering any part of the mortgaged property. In the event of a foreclosure of this Deed of Trust, the purchaser of the mortgaged property shall succeed to all the rights of Grantors, including any right to unearned premiums, in and to all policies of insurance assigned and delivered to Beneficiary pursuant to the provisions of this Deed of Trust. Regardless of the types or amounts of insurance required and approved by Beneficiary, Grantors shall assign and deliver to Beneficiary all policies of insurance that insure against any loss or damage to the mortgaged property, as collateral and further security for the payment of said indebtedness . Grantors shall also obtain and maintain in force and effect such liability and other insurance policies and protection as Beneficiary may from time to time specify. All premiums on insurance policies shall be paid in the manner provided under paragraph (36) hereof, if not paid in such manner, by Grantor making payment, when due, directly to the insurance carrier.

 

 
 

(4) Grantor shall pay all taxes and assessments against the mortgaged property, including, without limitation, all taxes in lieu of ad valorem taxes, as the same become due and payable. In the event of the passage after date of this Deed of Trust of any law not now in force for the taxation of mortgages, deeds of trust, or indebtedness secured thereby, for State or local purposes, or the manner of the operation of any such taxes so as to affect the interest of Beneficiary, then in such event, Grantors shall bear and pay the full amount of such taxes. If Grantors fail to pay any such taxes and assessments, including, without limitation, taxes in lieu of ad valorem taxes and taxes against this Deed of Trust or said indebtedness secured hereby, Beneficiary may pay the same, together with all costs and penalties thereon, at Grantors' expense; provided, however, that if for any reason payment by Grantors of any such new or additional taxes would be unlawful or if the payment thereof would constitute usury or render said indebtedness wholly or partially usurious under any of the terms or provisions of the Note or this Deed of Trust, or otherwise, Beneficiary may, at is option, declare said indebtedness due and payable with any indebtedness unlawful or usurious deducted in which event Grantors shall concurrently therewith pay to Beneficiary the remaining lawful and nonusurious portion or balance of said taxes.

 

(5) All judgments, decrees and awards or payment for injury or damage to the mortgaged property, and all awards pursuant to proceedings for condemnation thereof, including interest thereon, are hereby assigned in their entirety to Beneficiary, who shall apply the same first to reimbursement of all costs and expenses incurred by Beneficiary in connection with such condemnation proceeding and the balance shall be applied to said indebtedness in such manner as it may elect; and Beneficiary is hereby authorized, in the name of Grantors, to execute and deliver valid acquittances for, and to appeal from, any such award, judgment or decree. If Beneficiary elects to allowed portion of the proceeds of any condemnation proceeding to be paid to Grantors to be used in rebuilding, restoration or repair of the mortgaged property, then the disbursement of such proceeds shall be on such terms and subject to such conditions as Beneficiary may specify. Grantors shall promptly notify Beneficiary of the institution or threatened institution of any proceeding for the condemnation of any of the mortgaged property. Beneficiary shall have the right to participate in any such condemnation proceeding.

 

(6) If while this trust is in force, the title of Trustee to the mortgaged property, or any part thereof, shall be endangered or shall be attacked directly or indirectly, Grantors hereby authorize Beneficiary, at Grantors' expense, shall take all necessary and proper steps to the defense of said title, including the employment of counsel, the prosecution or defense of litigation, and the compromise or discharge of claims made against said title.

 

(7) All costs and expenses incurred in performing and complying with Grantors' covenants set forth herein shall be borne solely by Grantors. If, in pursuance of any covenant herein contained, Beneficiary shall pay cut any money chargeable to Grantors, or subject to reimbursement by Grantors under the terms of this Deed of Trust, Grantors shall repay the same to Beneficiary immediately at the place where the Note or other indebtedness hereby secured is payable, together with interest thereon at the maximum lawful rate of interest permitted by applicable state law to be charged to and paid by Grantors from and after the date of Beneficiary's making such payment. The sum of each such payment shall be added to the indebtedness hereby secured and thereafter shall form a part of the same; and it shall be secured by this Deed of trust and by subrogation to all the rights of the person, corporation, or body politic receiving such payment.

 

(8) Grantors shall keep every part of the mortgaged property in first-class condition and presenting a first-class appearance, make promptly all repairs, renewals and replacements necessary to such end, prevent waste to any part of the mortgaged property, and do promptly all also necessary to such end; and Grantors shall discharge all claims for labor performed and material furnished therefor, and shall not suffer any lien of mechanics or materialmen therefor to attach to any part of the mortgaged property. Grantors shall guard every part of the mortgaged property from removal, destruction and damage, and shall not do or suffer to be done any act whereby the value of any part of the mortgaged property may be lessened. No building or other property now or hereafter covered by the lien of this Deed of Trust shall be removed, demolished or materially altered or enlarged, nor shall any new building be constructed, without the prior written consent of Beneficiary. Grantors shall not initiate, join in, or consent to any change in any private restrictive covenants, zoning ordinances or other public or private restrictions limiting or defining the uses that may be made of the mortgaged property or any part thereof without the prior written consent of Beneficiary. Beneficiary and its agents or representatives shall have access to the mortgaged property at all reasonable times in order to inspect same and verify Grantors' compliance with their duties and obligations under this document.

 

 
 

 

(9) Grantors shall not grant any easement or right-of-way whatsoever with respect to any of the mortgaged property without the joinder therein of Beneficiary, or rent or lease any of the mortgaged property for any purpose whatsoever for a longer period than three (3) years without the prior written consent of Beneficiary.

 

(10) In the event the ownership of the mortgaged property or any part thereof becomes vested in a person other than Grantors, Beneficiary may, without notice to Grantors and without waiving Beneficiary's rights under paragraph (29), deal with such successor or successors in interest with reference to this Deed of Trust and to said indebtedness in the same manner as with Grantors, without in any way vitiating or discharging Grantors' liability hereunder or upon said indebtedness. No sale of the mortgaged property and no forbearance on the part of Beneficiary, and no extension of the time for the payment of said indebtedness, given by Beneficiary, shall operate to release, discharge, modify, change or effect, either in whole or in part, any original liability of Grantors or t ha liability of the guarantors or sureties of Grantors or of any other party liable for payment of said indebtedness or any part thereof.

 

(11) In the event Grantors shall default in the prompt payment, when due, of said indebtedness secured hereby, or any part thereof, or fail to keep and perform any of the covenants or agreements contained herein or in any other document securing payment of the indebtedness secured hereby or in the event Grantors or any person liable for said indebtedness, or any part thereof, files a voluntary petition in bankruptcy or for corporate reorganization makes an assignment for the benefit of any creditor, or is adjudicated a bankrupt or insolvent, or if the mortgaged property or any property owned by a person liable for said indebtedness is placed under control or in the custody of any court receiver or if the Grantors abandon any of the mortgaged property, then, in any such event, Beneficiary may declare the entire unpaid indebtedness secured hereby immediately due and payable (GRANTORS SPECIFICALLY WAIVE THE REQUIREMENT FOR PRESENTMENT, DEMAND FOR PAYMENT, AND NOTICE OF INTENT TO ACCELERATE MATURITY) except to the extent otherwise provided in the Note.

 

(12) All the covenants and agreements of Grantors set forth herein shall survive the execution and delivery of this document and shall continually in force until the indebtedness is paid in full. Accordingly, if Grantors shall perform faithfully each and 11 of the covenants and agreements herein contained, then, and then only, this conveyance shall become null and void and shall be released in due form, upon Grantors' written request and at Grantors' expense. Otherwise, it shall remain in full force and effect. No release of this conveyance or the lien thereof shall be valid unless executed by Beneficiary.

(19) To further secure said indebtedness, Grantors hereby grant a security interest to Beneficiary in and to all personal property hereinabove described (all of such personal property and the proceeds thereof being herein called the "collateral", but the mention of proceeds of collateral herein shall not be construed as an authorization for the sale or surrender by Grantors of collateral and collateral as used in this Deed of Trust shall be included in the term "mortgaged property" when used herein). This document shall constitute a SECURITY AGREEMENT as well as a mortgage and deed of trust. The following applies with respect to collateral:

 

(A) In addition to and cumulative of any other remedies granted in this Deed of Trust to Beneficiary, Beneficiary may, upon default hereunder, proceed under Chapter 9 of the Texas Business and Commerce Code as now adopted and existing and as it may hereafter be amended or succeeded (hereinafter called "Uniform Commercial Code") as to all or any part of the collateral and shall have and may exercise with respect to all or any part of the collateral all of the rights, remedies and powers of a secured part under the Uniform Commercial Code, including, without limitation, the right and power to repossess, retain and to sell at public or private sale or sales, or otherwise dispose of, lease or utilize the collateral or any part thereof and to dispose of the proceeds in any manner authorized or permitted under the applicable provisions of the Uniform Commercial Code, and to apply the proceeds thereof toward payment of Beneficiary's reasonable attorneys' fees and other expenses and costs of pursuing, searching for receiving, taking, keeping, storing, advertising, and selling the collateral thereby incurred by Beneficiary, and toward payment of said indebtedness in such order and manner as Beneficiary may elect consistent with the provisions of the Uniform Commercial Code Nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to impair or limit any other right or power to which Beneficiary may be entitled at law or in equity.

 

(B) Among the rights of Beneficiary upon default and acceleration of the indebtedness pursuant to the provisions hereof, and without limitation, Beneficiary shall have the right (but not the obligation), without being deemed guilty of trespass and without liability for damage thereby occasioned, (i) to enter upon any premises where said collateral may be situated and take possession of the collateral, or render it unusable or dispose of the collateral on Grantors' premises, and Grantors agree not to resist or to interfere, and (ii) to take any action deemed necessary or appropriate or desirable by Beneficiary at Beneficiary's option and in its discretion, to repair, refurbish or otherwise prepare the collateral for sale, lease or other use or disposition as herein authorized. Beneficiary may at Beneficiary's discretion require Grantors to assemble the collateral and make it available to Beneficiary at a place designated by Beneficiary that is reasonably convenient to both parties.

 

(C) Beneficiary shall give Grantors notice, by certified mail, postage prepaid, of the time and place of any public sale of any of the collateral or of the time which any private sale or other intended disposition thereof is to be made by sending notice to Grantors at the addresses of Grantors set out herein at least five (5) days before the time of the sale or other disposition, which provisions for notice Grantors and Beneficiary agree are reasonable; provided, however, that nothing herein shall preclude Beneficiary from proceeding as to both real and personal property in accordance with Beneficiary's rights and remedies in respect to real property as provided in the Uniform Commercial Code, and without any notice to Grantors except for the notices provided for in paragraph (13) hereof.

 

 

(D) To the extent such may now or hereafter be permitted under Texas law, Beneficiary is authorized to execute and file financing statements and continuation statements under the Uniform Commercial Code with respect to the collateral without joinder of Grantors in such execution or filing. Grantors shall execute and deliver to Beneficiary such financing statements, continuation statements and other documents relating to the collateral as Beneficiary may reasonably request from time to time to preserve and maintain the priority of the security interest created by this Deed of Trust and shall pay to the Beneficiary on demand any expenses and attorneys' fees incurred by Beneficiary in connection with the preparation, execution, and filing of this Deed of Trust and of any financing statements, continuation statements, partial releases, termination statements or other documents necessary or desirable to continue or confirm Beneficiary’s security interest or any modification thereof. This document, and any carbon, photographic or other reproduction of this document may be filed by Beneficiary and shall be sufficient as a financing statement. All or part of the collateral is or is to become fixtures on the real estate constituting a portion of the mortgaged property, but this statement shall not impair or limit the effectiveness of this document as a security agreement or financing for other purposes, and this Deed of Trust shall constitute a fixture financing statement, and, as such, shall be filed for record in the real estate records of the county in which the land covered hereby is located. Grantors shall not change Grantors' name without the prior express written consent of Beneficiary. The name of the record owner of the land covered hereby is the party or parties herein as Grantors.

 

 
 

(E) Unless otherwise disclosed to Beneficiary as herein provided, Grantors agree that, except for the security interest granted hereby in the collateral, Grantors are the owners of the collateral free of any adverse claim, security interest or encumbrance, and Grantors shall defend the collateral against all claims and demands of any person at any time claiming the same or any interest therein. Grantors have not heretofore signed any financing statement and no financing statement signed by Grantors is now on file in any public office except those statements, true and correct copies of which have been delivered to Beneficiary. So long as any amount remains unpaid on said indebtedness, Grantors shall not execute and there shall not be filed in any public office any such financing statement or statements affecting the collateral other than financing statements in favor of Beneficiary hereunder.

 

(F) The security interest granted herein shall not be construed or deemed to constitute Beneficiary or Trustee as a trustee or mortgagee in possession of the mortgaged property so as to obligate Beneficiary or Trustee to lease the mortgaged property or attempt to do the same, or to take any action, incur any expenses or perform or discharge any obligation, duty or liability with respect to the mortgaged property or any part thereof or otherwise.

 

(20) In addition to and cumulative of any other remedies granted in the Deed of Trust, the real property, improvements, personal property, leases, rents and other collateral or security comprising the mortgaged property may be sold in one or more public sales pursuant to Texas Property Code §51.002 and the Texas UCC. Beneficiary shall be entitled to foreclose its security interests against the personal property in accordance with any other rights and remedies Beneficiary may have as a secured party under the Texas UCC. Provided, however, unless Beneficiary notifies Grantors to the contrary, Grantors agree that Beneficiary and Trustee shall proceed under Texas UCC §9.604 (relating to a security agreement covering both real and person.al property), and title to all of the Property shall be conveyed to the purchaser at such public sale, including without limitation the real property, improvements, personal property, leases, rents, and other collateral or security comprising the mortgaged property. Grantors agree that notice of sale of the mortgaged property provided in this paragraph and pursuant to Texas Property Code §51.002 is and shall constitute commercially reasonable notice of the sale of the mortgaged property.

 

(21) The invalidity, or unenforceability in particular circumstances, of any provision of this Deed of Trust shall not extend beyond such provision or such circumstances and no other provision of this instrument shall be affected thereby. It is the intention of the parties hereto to comply with the usual laws of the State of Texas; accordingly, it is agreed that notwithstanding any provisions to the contrary in the Note or any instrument evidencing said indebtedness; in this Deed of Trust or in any of the documents or instruments securing payment of said indebtedness or otherwise relating thereto that in no event shall the Note or such documents require the payment or permit the collection of interest in excess of the maximum amount permitted by such laws. If any such excess of interest is contracted for, charged or received, under the Note or any instrument evidencing said indebtedness, under this Deed of Trust or under the terms of any other documents securing payment of said indebtedness or otherwise relating thereto, or in the event the maturity of any of said indebtedness is accelerated in whole or in part, or in the event that all or part of the principal or interest of said indebtedness shall be prepaid, so that under any of such circumstances, the amount of interest contracted for charged or received, under the Note or any instrument evidencing said indebtedness, under this Deed of Trust or under any of the instruments securing payment of said indebtedness or otherwise relating thereto, on the amount of principal actually outstanding from time to time under the Note and other instruments evidencing said indebtedness, shall exceed the maximum amount of interest permitted by the usury laws of the State of Texas, then in any such event (a)the provisions of this paragraph shall govern and control, (b)neither Grantors nor any other person or entity now or hereafter liable for the payment of the Note or any instrument evidencing said indebtedness shall be obligated to pay the amount of such interest to the extent that is in excess of the maximum amount of interest permitted by the usury laws of the State of Texas any such excess that may have been collected shall be either applied as a credit against the then unpaid principal amount hereof or refunded to Grantors, at the holder's option, and (c) the effective rate of interest shall be automatically reduced to the maximum lawful contract rate allowed under the usury laws of the State of Texas as now or hereafter construed by the courts having jurisdiction thereof. It is further agreed that without limitation of the foregoing, all calculations of the rate of interest contracted for, charged or received under the Note, or any instrument evidencing said indebtedness, under this Deed of Trust or under such other documents that are made for the purpose of determining whether such rate exceeds the maximum lawful contract rate, shall be made, to the extent permitted by the laws of the State of Texas, by amortizing, prorating, allocating and spreading in equal parts during the period of the full stated term of the loans evidenced by the Note or the instruments evidencing said indebtedness, all interest at any time contracted for, charged or received from Grantors or otherwise by the holder or holders hereof in connection with such loans.

An action of forcible detainer and/or any other legal proceedings shall lie if the tenant shall hold over after a demand in writing for possession of said property; and this agreement and Trustee's deed shall constitute a lease and agreement under which the tenant’s possession, each and all arose and continued.

 

(26) In the event any portion of said indebtedness is not, for any reason whatsoever, secured by this Deed of Trust on the mortgaged property, the full amount of all payments made on said indebtedness shall first be applied to such unsecured portion of said indebtedness until the same has been fully paid.

Grantors and Beneficiary intend this assignment to be absolute, unconditional and presently effective, and not an assignment for additional security only. Beneficiary hereby grants to Grantors a limited license (the “License”) to exercise and enjoy all the rights and benefits of the landlord or lessor of the Leases and the Rents, including without limitation, the right to collect, demand, sue for attach, levy, recover, and receive the Rents, as and when, but not before, they become due and payable, and to give proper receipts, releases, and acquittances therefor. Grantors hereby agree to receive all Rents and hold the same as a trust fund to be applied, and to apply the Rents so collected, first to the payment of the Indebtedness, next to the payment of the taxes and assessments on the Property and the insurance premiums required by the terms of the Loan Documents and then to the costs of maintaining, repairing and operating the Property pursuant to the requirements of the Loan Documents and the Leases. Thereafter, Grantors may use the balance of the Rents collected in any manner not inconsistent with the Loan Documents. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default Beneficiary shall have the complete right, power and authority hereunder then or thereafter to terminate the License and then and thereafter, without taking possession of the Property in Grantors' name to collect, demand sue for, attach levy, recover and receive the Rents and to give proper receipts, releases and acquittances therefor, and after deducting all reasonably incurred costs and expenses of operation and collection, including reasonable attorney’s fees, to apply the net proceeds thereof in reduction or repayment of the Indebtedness in such order of priority as Beneficiary may determine in its sole discretion.

Grantors shall (i) submit the Leases to Beneficiary for approval prior to the execution thereof, (ii) perform and comply with any and all representations, warranties, covenants, and agreements expressed as binding upon the landlord or lessor under any Lease,(iii) maintain each of the Leases in full force and effect during the term thereof (iv) appear in and defend any action or proceeding in any manner connected with any of the Leases, and (v) deliver to Beneficiary copies of the Leases and such further information, and execute and deliver to Beneficiary such further assurances and assignments with respect to the Leases, as Beneficiary may from time to time request. Without Beneficiary’s prior written consent, Grantors shall not (i) do or knowingly permit to be done anything to impair the value of any of the Leases, (ii) except for security or similar deposits, collect any of the Rent more than one month in advance of the time when the same becomes due under the terms of any Lease, (iii) discount any future accruing Rents, (iv) amend modify, or, terminate any of the Leases or (v) assign or grant a security interest in or to any of the Leases or the Rents.

So long as any part of the Indebtedness remains unpaid, the fee and leasehold estates to the Property shall not merge but rather shall remain separate and distinct, notwithstanding the union of such estates either in Grantors’ Beneficiary, any tenant or Lessee, or any third party purchase or otherwise. Grantors shall indemnify and hold harmless Beneficiary and Trustee from and against any and all liability, loss, cost, damage, or Expense which Beneficiary or Trustee may incur under or by reason of this assignment, or for any action taken by Beneficiary and/or Trustee hereunder, or by reason of or in defense of any and all claims and demands whatsoever which may be asserted against Beneficiary and/or Trustee arising out of the Leases or with respect to the Rents regardless of whether the claims or causes of action of whatever nature re founded in whole or in part upon the negligence (either act or omission) of Beneficiary or Trustee. In the event Beneficiary and/or Trustee incurs any such liability, loss, cost, damages or expense, the amount thereof together with all reasonable attorneys' fees shall be payable by Grantors to Beneficiary and/or Trustee immediately, without demand, and shall be deemed a part of the Indebtedness. The Rents shall be deemed earned over the entire period to which they relate, without regard to when the Rents are paid or uncollected. Upon the sale of the Property pursuant to the Loan Documents, by foreclosure or otherwise, any of the Rent s which are properly allocable to a period of time following such sale shall be conveyed to the purchaser at such sale, and Grantors shall pay the amount thereof immediately upon demand therefor. Upon payment in full of the Indebtedness, and performance of all obligations secured by the Loan Documents, this assignment shall terminate and be of no further force and effect, and all rights, titles, and interests conveyed pursuant to this assignment shall become vested in Grantors without the necessity of any further act or requirement by Grantors, Trustee, or Beneficiary.
