AND without limiting any of the other provisions of this Security Instrument, to the extent permitted by applicable law, Borrower expressly grants to Lender as secured party, a security interest in the portion of the Property which is or may be subject to the provisions of the Uniform Commercial Code which are applicable to secured transactions; it being understood and agreed that the Improvements and Fixtures are part and parcel of the Land (the Land, the Improvements and the Fixtures collectively referred to as the “Real Property”) appropriated to the use thereof and, whether affixed or annexed to the Real Property or not, shall for the purposes of this Security Instrument be deemed conclusively to be real estate and subject to this Security Instrument.

 

PROVIDED, HOWEVER FOR THE AVOIDANCE OF DOUBT, THAT, for so long as the Master Lease (or any replacement Master Lease entered into in accordance with the Loan Agreement) is in effect, Borrower’s interests in the Rents shall be limited to payments of rent due under the Master Lease (together with the assignment by Borrower to Lender pursuant to Section 1.1(h) hereof of Borrower’s interest in the assignment and conveyance of the Rents (as such term is defined in the Master Lease ALR) by Master Tenant to Borrower pursuant to the Master Lease ALR).

 

Section 1.2      Assignment of Rents.  Borrower hereby absolutely and unconditionally assigns to Lender all of Borrower’s right, title and interest in and to all current and future Leases and Rents; it being intended by Borrower that this assignment constitutes a present, absolute assignment and not an assignment for additional security only. Nevertheless, subject to the terms of the Cash Management Agreement and Section 7.1(h) of this Security Instrument, Lender grants to Borrower a license revocable upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default to collect, receive, use and enjoy the Rents and Borrower shall hold the Rents, or a portion thereof sufficient to discharge all current sums due on the Debt, for use in the payment of such sums.

 

  

Section 1.3      Security Agreement.  This Security Instrument is both a real property deed of trust and a “security agreement” within the meaning of the Uniform Commercial Code. The Property includes both real and personal property and all other rights and interests, whether tangible or intangible in nature, of Borrower in the Property. By executing and delivering this Security Instrument, Borrower hereby grants to Lender, as security for the Obligations (hereinafter defined), a security interest in the Fixtures, the Equipment and the Personal Property and other property constituting the Property, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, to the full extent that the Fixtures, the Equipment and the Personal Property and such other property may be subject to the Uniform Commercial Code (said portion of the Property so subject to the Uniform Commercial Code being called the “Collateral”). If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, Lender, in addition to any other rights and remedies which it may have, shall have and may exercise immediately and without demand, any and all rights and remedies granted to a secured party upon default under the Uniform Commercial Code, including the right to take possession of the Collateral or any part thereof, and to take such other measures as Lender may deem necessary for the care, protection and preservation of the Collateral. Upon request or demand of Lender after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Borrower shall, at its expense, assemble the Collateral and make it available to Lender at a convenient place (at the Land if tangible property) reasonably acceptable to Lender. Borrower shall pay to Lender on demand any and all expenses, including legal expenses and attorneys’ fees, incurred or paid by Lender in protecting its interest in the Collateral and in enforcing its rights hereunder with respect to the Collateral after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default. Any notice of sale, disposition or other intended action by Lender with respect to the Collateral sent to Borrower in accordance with the provisions hereof at least ten (10) Business Days prior to such action, shall, except as otherwise provided by applicable law, constitute reasonable notice to Borrower. The proceeds of any disposition of the Collateral, or any part thereof, may, except as otherwise required by applicable law, be applied by Lender to the payment of the Debt in such priority and proportions as Lender in its discretion shall deem proper. Borrower’s (debtor’s) principal place of business is as set forth on page one hereof and the address of Lender (secured party) is as set forth on page one hereof.

 

Borrower shall promptly notify Lender of the existence of any commercial tort claim now or hereafter existing for the benefit of Borrower or the Property, and shall execute, acknowledge and deliver a security agreement or other documentation as Lender shall from time to time require to acquire and perfect a valid and binding security interest in such commercial tort claim.

 

Section 1.4     Fixture Filing.  Certain of the Property is or will become “fixtures” (as that term is defined in the Uniform Commercial Code) on the Land, and this Security Instrument, upon being filed for record in the real estate records of the city or county wherein such fixtures are situated, shall operate also as a financing statement filed as a fixture filing in accordance with the applicable provisions of said Uniform Commercial Code upon such of the Property that is or may become fixtures.

 

 

Section 1.5      Pledges of Monies Held.  Borrower hereby pledges to Lender, to the extent of Borrower’s interest therein, any and all monies now or hereafter held by Lender or on behalf of Lender, including any sums deposited in the Clearing Account, the Cash Management Account, the Reserve Funds and Net Proceeds, as additional security for the Obligations until expended or applied as provided in this Security Instrument or the Loan Agreement.

 

Section 1.6      Common Law Pledge/Assignment.  To the extent that the Uniform Commercial Code does not apply to any item of the Personal Property, it is the intention of this Security Instrument that Lender have a common law pledge or collateral assignment of such item of Personal Property.

 

CONDITIONS TO GRANT

 

TO HAVE AND TO HOLD the above granted and described Property unto Trustee for the use and benefit of Lender, and its successors and assigns, forever;

The Improvements, the Fixtures, the Equipment and the Personal Property, if material in any way to the operation or value of the Property, shall not be removed, demolished or materially altered (except for normal replacement of equal or better quality of the Fixtures, the Equipment or the Personal Property, tenant finish and refurbishment of the Improvements or as otherwise expressly permitted under the Loan Agreement) without the consent of Lender. Borrower shall promptly repair, replace or rebuild any part of the Property which may be destroyed by any Casualty or become damaged, worn or dilapidated or which may be affected by any Condemnation, and shall, or shall cause Master Tenant to, complete and pay for any structure at any time in the process of construction or repair on the Land.

 

Section 3.5     Waste.  Borrower shall not commit or suffer any physical waste of the Property (“physical waste” meaning the diminution in the Property’s value resulting from Borrower’s grossly negligent or willful failure to manage, maintain, repair and otherwise operate the Property in a commercially reasonable manner) or make any change in the use of the Property which will in any way materially increase the risk of fire or other hazard arising out of the operation of the Property, or take any action that might invalidate or allow the cancellation of any Policy, or do or permit to be done thereon anything that may in any way materially impair the value of the Property or the security of this Security Instrument. Borrower shall not, without the prior written consent of Lender, permit any drilling or exploration for or extraction, removal, or production of any minerals from the surface or the subsurface of the Land, regardless of the depth thereof or the method of mining or extraction thereof.

 

  

Section 3.6      Payment for Labor and Materials.  (a) Subject to Section 3.6(b), Borrower shall promptly pay when due all bills and costs for labor, materials, and specifically fabricated materials (“Labor and Material Costs”) incurred in connection with the Property and never permit to exist beyond the due date thereof in respect of the Property or any part thereof any lien or security interest, even though inferior to the liens and the security interests hereof, and in any event never permit to be created or exist in respect of the Property or any part thereof any other or additional lien or security interest other than the liens or security interests hereof except for the Permitted Encumbrances.

 

(b)      After prior written notice to Lender, Borrower, at its own expense, may contest by appropriate legal or other proceeding, promptly initiated and conducted in good faith and with due diligence, the amount or validity or application in whole or in part of any of the Labor and Material Costs, provided that (i) no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing under the Loan Agreement, the Note, this Security Instrument or any of the other Loan Documents, (ii) Borrower is permitted to do so under the provisions of any other mortgage, Security Instrument or deed to secure debt affecting the Property, (iii) such proceeding shall suspend the collection of the Labor and Material Costs from Borrower and from the Property or Borrower shall have paid all of the Labor and Material Costs under protest, (iv) neither the Property nor any part thereof or interest therein will be in imminent danger of being sold, forfeited, terminated, cancelled or lost; (v) Borrower or Master Tenant shall promptly upon final determination thereof pay (or cause to be paid) any such contested Labor and Material Costs determined to be valid, applicable or unpaid; (vi) such proceeding shall suspend the collection of such contested Labor and Material Costs from the Property or Borrower or Master Tenant, as the case may be, shall have paid the same (or shall have caused the same to be paid) under protest; and (vii) Borrower shall furnish (or cause to be furnished) such security as may be required in the proceeding, or as may be reasonably requested by Lender, to insure payment of such Labor and Material Costs, together with all interest and penalties payable in connection therewith. Lender may (x) apply any such security or part thereof, as necessary to pay for such Labor and Material Costs at any time when, in the judgment of Lender, the validity, applicability or non-payment of such Labor and Material Costs is finally established or the Property (or any part thereof or interest therein) shall be in present danger of being sold, forfeited, terminated, cancelled or lost, (y) provided that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, shall make such security available to Borrower or Master Tenant, as the case may be, to satisfy any obligation that may be payable by it in connection with the matter so contested, and (z) provided that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, shall release any balance of such security to Borrower or Master Tenant, as the case may be.

Section 3.8      Change of Name, Identity or Structure.  Borrower shall not change Borrower’s name, identity (including its trade name or names) or, if not an individual, Borrower’s corporate, partnership or other structure, without notifying Lender of such change in writing at least thirty (30) days prior to the effective date of such change and without first obtaining the prior written consent of Lender. Borrower hereby authorizes Lender to file, prior to or contemporaneously with the effective date of any such change, any financing statement or financing statement change required by Lender to establish or maintain the validity, perfection and priority of the security interest granted herein.

The Permitted Encumbrances in the aggregate do not materially and adversely affect the value, operation or use of the Property or Borrower’s ability to repay the Loan. This Security Instrument, when properly recorded in the appropriate records, together with any Uniform Commercial Code financing statements required to be filed in connection therewith, will create (a) a valid, perfected first priority lien on that portion of the Property constituting an interest in real property, subject only to Permitted Encumbrances and the Liens created by the Loan Documents and (b) perfected security interests in and to, and perfected collateral assignments of, all personalty (including the Leases), to the extent that the creation of a security interest in the Leases is subject to the Uniform Commercial Code, as in effect under applicable law), to the extent that a security interest therein can be created under the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in the State of New York or Washington, as applicable, and can be perfected by the filing of financing statements under the Uniform Commercial Code, all in accordance with the terms thereof, in each case subject only to any applicable Permitted Encumbrances, such other Liens as are permitted pursuant to the Loan Documents and the Liens created by the Loan Documents. There are no claims for payment for work, labor or materials affecting the Property which are past due and are or may become a lien prior to, or of equal priority with, the Liens created by the Loan Documents unless such claims for payments are being contested in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Security Instrument.

If Lender is advised by counsel chosen by it that the payment of tax by Borrower would be unlawful or taxable to Lender or unenforceable or provide the basis for a defense of usury, then Lender shall have the option by written notice of not less than one hundred twenty (120) days to declare the Debt immediately due and payable.

Borrower acknowledges that Lender has a valid interest in maintaining the value of the Property so as to ensure that, should Borrower default in the repayment of the Debt or the performance of the Other Obligations, Lender can recover the Debt by a sale of the Property.

Any notice of sale, disposition or other intended action by Lender with respect to the Fixtures, the Equipment, the Personal Property sent to Borrower in accordance with the provisions hereof at least five (5) days prior to such action, shall constitute commercially reasonable notice to Borrower;

Section 7.2      Application of Proceeds.  Subject to the provisions of the Loan Agreement, the purchase money, proceeds and avails of any disposition of the Property, and or any part thereof, or any other sums collected by Lender pursuant to the Note, this Security Instrument or the other Loan Documents, may be applied by Lender to the payment of the Debt in such priority and proportions as Lender in its discretion shall deem proper.

 

Section 7.3      Right to Cure Defaults.  Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, or if Borrower fails to make any payment or to do any act as herein provided, Lender may, but without any obligation to do so and without notice to or demand on Borrower and without releasing Borrower from any obligation hereunder, make any payment or do any act required of Borrower hereunder in such manner and to such extent as Lender may deem necessary to protect the security hereof. Lender is authorized to enter upon the Property for such purposes, or appear in, defend, or bring any action or proceeding to protect its interest in the Property or to foreclose this Security Instrument or collect the Debt, and the cost and expense thereof (including attorneys’ fees to the extent permitted by law), with interest as provided in this Section 7.3, shall constitute a portion of the Debt and shall be due and payable to Lender upon demand. All such costs and expenses incurred by Lender in remedying such Event of Default or such failed payment or act or in appearing in, defending, or bringing any such action or proceeding shall bear interest at the Default Rate, for the period after notice from Lender that such cost or expense was incurred to the date of payment to Lender. All such costs and expenses incurred by Lender together with interest thereon calculated at the Default Rate shall be deemed to constitute a portion of the Debt and be secured by this Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents and shall be immediately due and payable upon demand by Lender therefor.

Section 7.6      Examination of Books and Records.  At reasonable times and upon reasonable notice, Lender, its agents, accountants and attorneys shall have the right to examine the records, books, management and other papers of Borrower which reflect upon their financial condition, at the Property or at any office regularly maintained by Borrower where the books and records are located. Lender and its agents shall have the right to make copies and extracts from the foregoing records and other papers. In addition, at reasonable times and upon reasonable notice, Lender, its agents, accountants and attorneys shall have the right to examine and audit the books and records of Borrower pertaining to the income, expenses and operation of the Property during reasonable business hours at any office of Borrower where the books and records are located. This Section 7.6 shall apply throughout the term of the Note and without regard to whether an Event of Default has occurred or is continuing.

 

 

Section 7.7      Other Rights, etc.  (a) The failure of Lender to insist upon strict performance of any term hereof shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any term of this Security Instrument. Borrower shall not be relieved of Borrower’s obligations hereunder by reason of (i) the failure of Lender to comply with any request of Borrower or any guarantor or any indemnitor with respect to the Loan to take any action to foreclose this Security Instrument or otherwise enforce any of the provisions hereof or of the Note or the other Loan Documents, (ii) the release, regardless of consideration, of the whole or any part of the Property, or of any person liable for the Debt or any portion thereof, or (iii) any agreement or stipulation by Lender extending the time of payment or otherwise modifying or supplementing the terms of the Note, this Security Instrument or the other Loan Documents.

 

(b)      It is agreed that the risk of loss or damage to the Property is on Borrower, and Lender shall have no liability whatsoever for decline in value of the Property, for failure to maintain the Policies, or for failure to determine whether insurance in force is adequate as to the amount of risks insured. Possession by Lender shall not be deemed an election of judicial relief if any such possession is requested or obtained with respect to any Property or collateral not in Lender’s possession.

 

(c)      Lender may resort for the payment of the Debt to any other security held by Lender in such order and manner as Lender, in its discretion, may elect. Lender may take action to recover the Debt, or any portion thereof, or to enforce any covenant hereof without prejudice to the right of Lender thereafter to foreclose this Security Instrument. The rights of Lender under this Security Instrument shall be separate, distinct and cumulative and none shall be given effect to the exclusion of the others. No act of Lender shall be construed as an election to proceed under any one provision herein to the exclusion of any other provision. Lender shall not be limited exclusively to the rights and remedies herein stated but shall be entitled to every right and remedy now or hereafter afforded at law or in equity.

 

Section 7.8     Right to Release Any Portion of the Property.  Lender may release any portion of the Property for such consideration as Lender may require without, as to the remainder of the Property, in any way impairing or affecting the lien or priority of this Security Instrument, or improving the position of any subordinate lienholder with respect thereto, except to the extent that the obligations hereunder shall have been reduced by the actual monetary consideration, if any, received by Lender for such release, and may accept by assignment, pledge or otherwise any other property in place thereof as Lender may require without being accountable for so doing to any other lienholder. This Security Instrument shall continue as a lien and security interest in the remaining portion of the Property.

 

Section 7.9     Violation of Laws.  If the Property is not in material compliance with Legal Requirements, Lender may impose additional requirements upon Borrower in connection herewith including monetary reserves or financial equivalents.

 

 

Section 7.10   Recourse and Choice of Remedies.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Security Instrument or the Loan Agreement, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law and the provisions of Section 9.3 of the Loan Agreement, Lender and other Indemnified Parties are entitled to enforce the obligations of Borrower contained in Sections 9.1, 9.2 and 9.3 herein and Section 9.3 of the Loan Agreement without first resorting to or exhausting any security or collateral and without first having recourse to the Note or any of the Property, through foreclosure or acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise, and in the event Lender commences a foreclosure action against the Property, Lender is entitled to pursue a deficiency judgment with respect to such obligations against Borrower if and to the extent permitted under the terms of Section 9.3 of the Loan Agreement. The provisions of Sections 9.1, 9.2 and 9.3 herein and Section 9.3 of the Loan Agreement are exceptions to any non-recourse or exculpation provisions in the Loan Agreement, the Note, this Security Instrument or the other Loan Documents, and Borrower is fully and personally liable for the obligations pursuant to Sections 9.1, 9.2 and 9.3 herein and Section 9.3 of the Loan Agreement. The liability of Borrower pursuant to Sections 9.1, 9.2 and 9.3 herein and Section 9.3 of the Loan Agreement is not limited to the original principal amount of the Note. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall inhibit or prevent Lender from foreclosing or exercising any other rights and remedies pursuant to the Loan Agreement, the Note, this Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents, whether simultaneously with foreclosure proceedings or in any other sequence. A separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against Borrower pursuant to Sections 9.1, 9.2 and 9.3 herein and Section 9.3 of the Loan Agreement whether or not action is brought against any other Person or whether or not any other Person is joined in the action or actions. In addition, Lender shall have the right but not the obligation to join and participate in, as a party if it so elects, any administrative or judicial proceedings or actions initiated in connection with any matter addressed in Article IX herein.

Section 7.12   Rights Pertaining To Sales.  The following provisions shall, to the extent permitted by law, apply to any sale or sales of all or any portion of the Property under or by virtue of this Security Instrument, whether under any power of sale herein granted or by virtue of judicial proceedings or of a judgment or decree of foreclosure and sale:

 

(a)      Trustee (for purposes of this Section 7.12 only, the term “Trustee” shall be interpreted to include any public officer or other person having the responsibility to conduct any sale of all or part of the Property pursuant to this Security Instrument) may conduct any number of sales from time to time. The power of sale shall not be exhausted by any one or more of such sales as to any part of the Property that has not been sold or by any sale that is not completed or is defective until the Debt has been paid in full.

 

(b)      Any sale may be postponed or adjourned by public announcement at the time and place appointed for such sale or for such postponed or adjourned sale, and such sale may be completed at the time and place so announced without further notice.

 

(c)      Lender is hereby appointed the true and lawful attorney-in-fact of Borrower, which appointment is irrevocable and shall be deemed to be coupled with an interest, in Borrower’s name and stead, to make all necessary conveyances, assignments, transfers and deliveries of the Property and rights so sold, and for that purpose Lender may execute all necessary instruments to accomplish the same, and may substitute one or more persons with like power, and Borrower hereby ratifies and confirms all that said attorney or such substitute or substitutes shall lawfully do by virtue thereof. Nevertheless, Borrower, if requested by Lender, shall ratify and confirm any such sale or sales by executing and delivering to Lender or such purchaser or purchasers, as applicable, all such instruments as may be advisable, in Lender’s judgment, for the purposes designated in such request.

 

  

(d)      Any and all statements of fact or other recitals made in any of the instruments referred to in Section 7.12(c) given by Lender concerning nonpayment of the Debt, occurrence of any Event of Default, any declaration by Lender that all or any of the Debt is due and payable, any request to sell, any representation that notice of time, place and terms of sale and property or rights to be sold was duly given, or that any other act or thing was duly done by Lender, shall be taken as prima facie evidence of the truth of the facts so stated and recited.

 

(e)      The receipt by Trustee of the purchase money paid at any such sale, or the receipt of any other person authorized to give the same, shall be sufficient discharge therefor to any purchaser of any property or rights sold as aforesaid, and no purchaser, or its representatives, grantees or assigns, after paying such purchase price and receiving such receipt, shall be bound to see to the application of such purchase price or any part thereof upon or for any trust or purpose of this Security Instrument or, in any manner whatsoever, be answerable for any loss, misapplication or non-application of any such purchase money, or part thereof, or be bound to inquire as to the authorization, necessity, expediency or regularity of any such sale.

 

(f)      Any such sale or sales shall operate to divest all of the estate, right, title, interest, claim and demand whatsoever, whether at law or in equity, of Borrower in and to the properties and rights so sold, and shall be a perpetual bar both at law and in equity against Borrower and any and all persons claiming or who may claim the same, or any part thereof, by, through or under Borrower to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.

 

(g)      Upon any such sale or sales, Lender may bid for and acquire the Property and, in lieu of paying cash therefor, may make settlement for the purchase price by crediting against the Debt the amount of the bid made therefor, after deducting therefrom the expenses of the sale, the cost of any enforcement proceeding hereunder and any other sums that Lender is authorized to charge to Borrower under the terms of the Note, this Security Instrument, or any other Loan Document to the extent necessary to satisfy such bid.

 

(h)      If Borrower, or any person claiming by, through or under Borrower, shall transfer or refuse or fail to surrender possession of the Property after any sale thereof, then Borrower or such person shall be deemed a tenant at sufferance of the purchaser at such sale, subject to eviction by means of unlawful detainer proceedings or other appropriate proceedings, and to any other right or remedy available hereunder or under applicable law.

 

(i)      Upon any such sale, it shall not be necessary for Trustee, Lender or any public officer acting under execution or order of court to have present or constructively in its possession any or all of the Property.

 

(j)      In the event of any sale referred to in this Section 7.12, the entire Debt, if not previously due and payable, immediately thereupon shall, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Note, this Security Instrument or any other Loan Document, become due and payable.

 

  

(k)      This instrument shall be effective as a mortgage. If a sale hereunder shall be commenced by Trustee, Lender may, at any time before the sale of the Property, direct the Trustee to abandon the sale, and may institute suit for the collection of the Debt or part thereof and for the foreclosure of this Security Instrument. If Lender shall institute suit for the collection of the Debt or part thereof, and for the foreclosure of this Security Instrument, Lender may at any time before the entry of final judgment in said suit dismiss the same (or part thereof) and direct the Trustee to sell the Property in accordance with the provisions of this Security Instrument. Lender may pursue its rights and remedies against any guarantor or other party liable for any of the obligations in such a suit for foreclosure or by separate suit, whether or not the Trustee is also pursuing a sale under the terms hereof.

Section 16.4   Retention of Money.  All moneys received by Trustee shall, until used or applied as herein provided, be held in trust for the purposes for which they were received, but need not be segregated in any manner from any other moneys (except to the extent required by applicable law) and Trustee shall be under no liability for interest on any moneys received by Trustee hereunder.

 

Section 16.5   Perfection of Appointment.  Should any deed, conveyance, or instrument of any nature be required from Borrower by any Trustee or substitute trustee to more fully and certainly vest in and confirm to the Trustee or substitute trustee such estates rights, powers, and duties, then, upon request by the Trustee or substitute trustee, any and all such deeds, conveyances and instruments shall be made, executed, acknowledged, and delivered and shall be caused to be recorded or filed by Borrower.

 

Section 16.6   Succession Instruments.  Any substitute trustee appointed pursuant to any of the provisions hereof shall, without any further act, deed, or conveyance, become vested with all the estates, properties, rights, powers, and trusts of its or his/her predecessor in the rights hereunder with like effect as if originally named as Trustee herein; but nevertheless, upon the written request of Lender or of the substitute trustee, the Trustee ceasing to act shall execute and deliver any instrument transferring to such substitute trustee, upon the trusts herein expressed, all the estates, properties, rights, powers, and trusts of the Trustee so ceasing to act, and shall duly assign, transfer and deliver any of the property and moneys held by such Trustee to the substitute trustee so appointed in the Trustee’s place.

 

ARTICLE XVII
STATE-SPECIFIC PROVISIONS

 

Section 17.1    Principles of Construction.  In the event of any inconsistencies between the terms and conditions of this Article XVII and any other terms and conditions of this Security Instrument, the terms and conditions of this Article XVII shall control and be binding.

Borrower hereby grants to Lender, in its sole discretion, the right and power to appoint a substitute trustee or trustees for any reason whatsoever. Such substitution shall be made by an instrument duly executed and acknowledged and recorded where this Security Instrument is recorded.

 

 

Section 17.3    Performance of Duties; Liability.  Trustee shall perform and fulfill faithfully its obligations hereunder, but it shall be under no duty to act until it receives notice of the occurrence of an Event of Default from Lender and arrangements have been made which are satisfactory to it for the indemnification to which it is entitled, the payment of its compensation and the reimbursement of any expenses it may incur in the performance of its duties. It shall have no liability for its acts unless it is guilty of willful misconduct or gross negligence.

 

Section 17.4    Trustee’s Fees.  Borrower shall pay Trustee reasonable compensation for any and all services performed and all its reasonable expenses, charges, attorneys’ fees and other obligations incurred in the administration and execution of the trusts hereby created and the performance of its duties and powers hereunder, which compensation, expenses, fees and disbursements shall constitute a part of the Debt secured hereby.

 

Section 17.5    Reconveyance.  Trustee shall reconvey all or any part of the Property covered by this Security Instrument to the person entitled thereto, upon written request of Lender and Borrower, or upon full satisfaction of the Debt secured hereby and written request of Lender or the person entitled thereto.

 

Section 17.6   Procedure of Trustee’s Power of Sale.  Except as otherwise prescribed by applicable law, the procedure for exercise of the Trustee’s power of sale under this Security Instrument shall be as follows:

 

Upon written request therefor by Lender specifying the nature of the Event of Default, or the nature of the several Events of Default, and the amount or amounts due and owing, Trustee shall execute a written notice of breach and of its election to cause the Property to be sold to satisfy the obligation secured hereby, and shall cause such notice to be recorded and otherwise given according to law.

 

Notice of sale having been given as then required by law and not less than the time then required by law having elapsed after recordation of such notice of breach, Trustee, without demand on Borrower, shall sell the Property at the time and place of sale specified in the notice, as provided by statute, either as a whole or in separate parcels and in such order as it may determine, at public auction to the highest and best bidder for cash in lawful money of the United States, payable at time of sale. Borrower agrees that such sale (or a sheriff’s sale pursuant to judicial foreclosure) of all the Property as real estate constitutes a commercially reasonable disposition thereof, but that with respect to all or any part of the Property which may be personal property, Trustee shall have and exercise, at Lender’s sole election, all the rights and remedies of a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code (the “UCC”). Whatever notice is permitted or required hereunder or under the UCC, ten (10) days shall be deemed reasonable. Trustee may postpone sale of all or any portion of the Property, and from time to time thereafter may postpone such sale, as provided by statute. Trustee shall deliver to the purchaser its deed and bill of sale conveying the Property so sold, but without any covenant or warranty, express or implied. The recital in such deed and bill of sale of any matters or facts shall be conclusive proof of the truthfulness thereof. Any Person other than Trustee, including Borrower or any one or more Lender, may purchase at such sale.

 

After deducting all costs, fees and expenses of Trustee, and of this Security Instrument, including the cost of evidence of title search and reasonable counsel fees in connection with sale, Trustee shall apply the proceeds of sale to payment of: all sums expended under the terms hereof not then repaid, with accrued interest at the Default Rate of interest specified in the Loan Documents; all other sums then secured hereby; and the remainder, if any, to the clerk of the superior court of the county in which the sale took place, as provided in RCW 61.24.080.

 

 

Section 17.7    Commercial Loan.  Borrower warrants that the proceeds of the Loan are for commercial purposes only and not for personal, family or household purposes pursuant to RCW 19.52.080.

 

Section 17.8    Non-Agricultural Use.  The Property is not presently, and will not during the term of this Security Instrument be, used principally or at all for agricultural or farming purposes.

 

Section 17.9    Washington Statute of Frauds Notice.  ORAL AGREEMENTS OR ORAL COMMITMENTS TO LEND MONEY, EXTEND CREDIT, OR FOREBEAR FROM ENFORCING REPAYMENT OF A DEBT ARE NOT ENFORCEABLE UNDER WASHINGTON LAW.

 

Section 17.10  Waiver of Immunity Under RCW Title 51.  With respect to any contractual matters that Borrower establishes in any action within the scope of RCW Section 4.24.115, Borrower expressly (1) waives Borrower’s immunity under RCW tit. 51 and acknowledges that such waiver was mutually negotiated by the parties; and (2) agrees to indemnify Lender. The scope of this indemnity shall be limited with regard to damages for bodily injury to persons or damage to property resulting from the concurrent negligence of Borrower or Borrower’s agents or employees and of Lender or Lender’s agents or employees, as to which Borrower agrees to indemnify Lender to the extent of the negligence of Borrower or Borrower’s agents or employees. Nothing herein shall be deemed to require Borrower to indemnify Lender against the sole or concurrent negligence of Lender or Lender’s agents or employees if such indemnity would be prohibited under RCW Section 4.24.115. The parties intend that under indemnity provisions herein, unless otherwise expressly limited herein, Borrower shall indemnify Lender to the fullest extent not prohibited by law, including, without limitation, in the event of the sole or concurrent negligence of Lender or of any other person or entity.

 

Section 17.11 Excluded Obligations.  Any provision of Sections 2.1 through 2.3 hereof or any other provision of this Security Instrument or any other Loan Document to the contrary notwithstanding, this Security Instrument does not secure (collectively, the “Excluded Obligations”): (i) any guaranty of the obligations of Borrower under the Note or the Loan Agreement; (ii) any environmental indemnification agreement executed by Borrower or any other party in connection with the Loan secured hereby; or (iii) any provision of this Security Instrument, the Loan Agreement or any other Loan Document that would, under RCW Ch. 61.24, be considered the “substantial equivalent” of an environmental indemnification agreement described in (ii) above.

 

Section 17.12  Assignment of Rents.  The assignment of Rents under this Security Instrument is intended to be specific, perfected and choate upon recording of this Security Instrument as provided in RCW 7.28.230.
