ARTICLE 2.
GRANTING CLAUSE
7
<PAGE>
2.1 Grant to Mortgagee. As security for the Secured Obligations,
Mortgagor hereby grants, bargains, sells, conveys, warrants, assigns, transfers,
mortgages and pledges the Fee Parcel and all right, title and interest of
Mortgagor therein, and the Leased Parcel and all right, title and interest of
Mortgagor therein, including without limitation the option to purchase the
Leased Parcel or further or greater estate in the Leased Parcel, now existing or
hereafter acquired by Mortgagor, and subject to all provisions hereof, TO HAVE
AND TO HOLD the Property forever; PROVIDED ALWAYS, that if Mortgagor (A) shall
pay or cause to be paid to Mortgagee all of the obligations arising out of, and
according to the tenor and effect of, the Note and the Loan Agreement; (B) shall
fully perform or cause to be fully performed all covenants and agreements set
forth in the Note and Loan Documents; and (C) shall in the meantime keep and
perform the covenants and agreements herein contained, then these presents shall
have no further force and effect.
2.2 Security Interest to Mortgagee. As additional security for the
Secured Obligations, Mortgagor hereby grants to Mortgagee a security interest in
the Tangible Personalty and in the Intangible Personalty and in such of the Real
Property as may be deemed personalty (collectively, the "Collateral"). To the
extent any of the Collateral may be or has been acquired with funds advanced by
Mortgagee under the Loan Documents, this security interest is a purchase money
security interest. This Mortgage constitutes a Security Agreement under the
Uniform Commercial Code of Florida (the "UCC") with respect to any part of the
Property and Collateral that may or might now or hereafter be or be deemed to be
personal property, fixtures or property other than real estate; all of the
terms, provisions, conditions and agreements contained in this Mortgage pertain
and apply to the Collateral as fully and to the same extent as to any other
property comprising the Property, and the following provisions of this section
shall not limit the generality or applicability of any other provision of this
Mortgage but shall be in addition thereto:
(a) The Collateral shall be used by Mortgagor solely for business
purposes, being installed upon or owned in connection with the real estate
comprising part of the Property for Mortgagor's own use or as the equipment and
furnishings furnished by Mortgagor, as owner, to occupants and tenants of the
Property;
(b) The Tangible Personalty shall be kept at the real estate
comprising a part of the Property, and shall not be removed therefrom without
the consent of Mortgagee and the Tangible Personalty may be affixed to such real
estate but shall not be affixed to any other real estate;
(c) No financing statement covering any of the Collateral or any
proceeds thereof is on file in any public office; and Mortgagor will, at its
8
<PAGE>
cost and expense, upon demand, furnish to Mortgagee such further information and
will execute and deliver to Mortgagee such financing statements and other
documents in form satisfactory to Mortgagee and will do all such acts and things
as Mortgagee may at any time or from time to time reasonably request or as may
be necessary or appropriate to establish and maintain a perfected security
interest in the Collateral as security for the Secured Obligations, subject to
no adverse liens or encumbrances; and Mortgagor will pay the cost of filing the
same or filing or recording such financing statements or other documents and
this instrument in all public offices wherever filing or recording is deemed by
Mortgagee to be necessary or desirable;
(d) The terms and provisions contained in this section and in
Section 6.12 (Enforcement of Security Interests) of this Mortgage shall, unless
the context otherwise requires, have the meanings and be construed as provided
in the UCC; and
(e) This Mortgage constitutes a security agreement and financing
statement under the UCC with respect to the Collateral. As such, this Mortgage
covers all items of the Collateral that are personal property including all
items which are to become fixtures. Mortgagor is the "Debtor" and Mortgagee is
the "Secured Party" (as those terms are defined and used in the UCC) insofar as
this Mortgage constitutes a financing statement.
(f) Upon its recording in the real property records, this
Mortgage shall be effective as a financing statement filed as a fixture filing.
In addition, a carbon, photographic or other reproduced copy of this Mortgage
and/or any financing statement relating hereto shall be sufficient for filing
and/or recording as a financing statement. The filing of any other financing
statement relating to any personal property, rights or interests described
herein shall not be construed to diminish any right or priority hereunder.
ARTICLE 3.
MORTGAGOR'S TITLE AND AUTHORITY
3.1 Warranty of Title. Mortgagor represents and warrants to Mortgagee
that Mortgagor has good and marketable title to the Fee Parcel in fee simple
absolute and good and marketable Leasehold Estate in the Leased Parcel, subject
only to the lien of general taxes for the current year, payable the following
year, and those additional matters, if any, set forth in Exhibit B, attached
hereto and by this reference incorporated herein ("Permitted Exceptions").
Mortgagor further represents and warrants to Mortgagee that Mortgagor is the
absolute owner of the Collateral, free of any liens, encumbrances, security
interests, and other claims whatsoever, except insofar as the Collateral may be
encumbered by the lien of general taxes for the current year, payable the
following year. Mortgagor, for itself and its successors and assigns, hereby
agrees to warrant and forever defend, all and singular, all of the property and
property interest granted and conveyed in trust pursuant to this Mortgage,
against every person whomsoever lawfully claiming, or to claim, the same or any
9
<PAGE>
part thereof, subject to the Permitted Exceptions. The warranties contained in
this section shall survive foreclosure of this Mortgage, and shall inure to the
benefit of and be enforceable by any person who may acquire title to the
Property or the Collateral pursuant to any such foreclosure.
3.2 Waiver of Homestead and Other Exemptions. To the extent permitted by
law, Mortgagor hereby waives all rights to any homestead or other exemption to
which Mortgagor would otherwise be entitled under any present or future
constitutional, statutory, or other provision of applicable state or federal
law.
3.3 Due Authorization. If Mortgagor is other than a natural person, then
each individual who executes this document on behalf of Mortgagor represents and
warrants to Mortgagee that such execution has been duly authorized by all
necessary corporate, partnership, or other action on the part of Mortgagor.
ARTICLE 4.
MORTGAGOR'S AFFIRMATIVE COVENANTS
4.1 Payment of Note. Mortgagor will pay all principal, interest, and
other sums payable under the Note, the Loan Agreement or this Mortgage or the
Loan Documents, on the date when such payments are due, without notice or
demand.
4.2 Performance of Other Obligations. Mortgagor will promptly and
strictly perform and comply with all other covenants, conditions, and
prohibitions required of Mortgagor by the terms of the Loan Documents.
4.3 Other Encumbrances. Mortgagor will promptly and strictly perform and
comply with all covenants, conditions, and prohibitions required of Mortgagor in
connection with any other encumbrance affecting the Property or the Collateral,
or any part thereof, or any interest therein, regardless of whether such other
encumbrance is superior or subordinate to the lien hereof. This paragraph does
not authorize any lien or encumbrance against the Property or the Collateral
except as permitted by Section 3.1 or with the prior written consent of the
Mortgagee as provided in this Mortgage.
4.4 Payment of Taxes.
(a) Property Taxes. Mortgagor will pay, before delinquency, all
taxes and assessments, including without limitation, general, special and
metropolitan district taxes, water charges, sewer service charges (collectively,
10
<PAGE>
the "Impositions"), which may be levied or imposed at any time against
Mortgagor's interest and estate in the Property or the Collateral. Within ten
(10) days after request by Mortgagee, Mortgagor will deliver to Mortgagee an
official receipt for such payment or other evidence that such payment has been
made.
(b) Deposit for Taxes. If required by the Mortgagee, concurrently
with the delivery of this Mortgage, Mortgagor has deposited with Mortgagee an
amount equal to 1/12th of the amount which Mortgagee estimates will be required
to make the next annual payment of Impositions, multiplied by the number of
whole and partial months which have elapsed since March 31 of the current year.
With each monthly payment under the Note, Mortgagor will deposit with Mortgagee
an amount equal to 1/12th of the amount which Mortgagee estimates will be
required to pay the next required installment or payment of Impositions. The
purpose of these provisions is to provide Mortgagee with sufficient funds on
hand to pay all such Imposition charges 30 days before the date on which they
become past due. Provided no default exists hereunder, Mortgagee will apply the
amounts so deposited to the payment of such Imposition when due, but in no event
will Mortgagee be liable for any interest on any amount so deposited, and the
money so received may be held and commingled with Mortgagee's own funds. If the
funds so deposited are insufficient to the Impositions for any year when the
same shall become due and payable, the Mortgagor shall, within ten (10) days
after receipt of demand therefor, deposit such additional funds as may be
necessary to pay such Impositions in full.
(c) Intangible Taxes. It is contemplated that the Mortgagor will
pay documentary stamp taxes and intangible tax applicable to the full face
amount of the Note and this Mortgage. If any additional stamp or excise tax
shall become applicable with respect to this Mortgage, the Note, any loan or
credit extended hereunder, or any security agreement, guaranty, the loan
agreement or other documents, the Mortgagor shall promptly pay such tax in full
(including interest and penalties, if any) and shall hold the Mortgagee harmless
with respect thereto. The Mortgagor's liability under this Section 4.4(c) will
survive the repayment of indebtedness under the Note. Additionally, in the event
Mortgagor is unable to pay such taxes, either for economic reasons or because
the legal provisions or decisions creating such tax, assessment or charge forbid
Mortgagor from doing so, then the Note will, at Mortgagee's option, become due
and payable in full upon thirty (30) days' prior written notice to Mortgagor.
(d) Right to Contest. Notwithstanding any other provision of this
section, Mortgagor will not be deemed to be in default solely by reason of
Mortgagor's failure to pay any Impositions so long as, in Mortgagee's judgment,
each of the following conditions is satisfied:
11
<PAGE>
(i) Mortgagor is engaged in and diligently pursuing in good
faith administrative or judicial proceedings appropriate to contest the validity
or amount of such Impositions; and
(ii) Nonpayment of such Impositions will not result in the
loss or forfeiture of any Property encumbered hereby or any interest of
Mortgagee therein.
If Mortgagee determines that any one or more of such conditions is not satisfied
or is no longer satisfied, Mortgagor will pay the Impositions in question,
together with any interest and penalties thereon, within ten days after
Mortgagee gives notice of such determination.
4.5 Covenants Regarding Master Lease.
(a) Mortgagor covenants and agrees that it will at all times
perform and comply with all agreements, covenants, terms and conditions imposed
upon Mortgagor under the Master Lease. If Mortgagor shall fail to do so, the
Mortgagee may (but shall not be obligated to) take any action the Mortgagee
deems necessary or desirable to prevent or to cure any default by Mortgagor in
the performance or compliance with any covenants or obligations under the Master
Lease. Within ten (10) days after demand by Mortgagee, Mortgagor shall deliver
to Mortgagee a certification executed by the Authorized Officer of Mortgagor, to
the effect that all rent and other charges under the Master Lease have been paid
and that no default exists thereunder, or, if default exists, specifying the
default and satisfactory cure. Mortgagor shall promptly perform and observe all
of the terms, covenants and conditions required to be performed and observed by
Mortgagor under the Master Lease within the stated opportunity to cure periods
provided in the Master Lease or such lesser opportunity to cure periods as are
provided in the default provisions of this Mortgage or the Loan Agreement and
shall do all things necessary to preserve and keep unimpaired Mortgagor's rights
under the Master Lease.
(b) Upon receipt by Mortgagee of any written notice of default by
Mortgagor with respect to the Master Lease, Mortgagee may rely thereon and,
regardless of whether the existence of such default or the nature thereof be
questioned or denied by the Mortgagor, or by any party, and without limiting the
generality of any other provision of this Mortgage and without releasing
Mortgagor from any of its obligations under this Mortgage, Mortgagee shall have
the right, but not the obligation, and without notice to or demand upon
Mortgagor, to take any action that Mortgagee deems necessary or desirable to
prevent or to cure any such default by Mortgagor. Mortgagor expressly grants to
Mortgagee, and agrees that Mortgagee shall have, the absolute and immediate
right to enter in and upon the Property or any part thereof, to such extent and
12
<PAGE>
as often as Mortgagee in its sole discretion deems necessary or desirable, in
order to prevent or to cure any default by Mortgagor under the Master Lease.
Mortgagee shall have the right to pay and expend such sums of money as Mortgagee
in its sole discretion deems necessary or desirable for any such purpose
(including, without limitation, the right to employ counsel and pay its
reasonable fees and expenses). If Mortgagee shall make any payment or take any
action in accordance with this paragraph, Mortgagor hereby agrees to pay to the
Mortgagee, within ten (10) days after written notice of such expenditure, all
sums so paid and expended by the Mortgagee, together with interest at the
Default Rate. All sums so paid and expended by the Mortgagee, and the interest
thereon, shall be added to and be secured by this Mortgage. To the extent that
Mortgagee makes good or cures any such default, the Mortgagee shall be thereby
subrogated to all rights of the applicable party under the terms and provisions
of the Master Lease.
(c) It is further agreed that Mortgagee may, at its option,
perform the covenants and provisions of said Master Lease for and on behalf of
the Mortgagor and at the expense of Mortgagor. Such performance on behalf of
Mortgagor may be made either before or after the occurrence of an event of
default under the Master Lease but only after the occurrence of an Event of
Default under the Loan Documents at the option of the Mortgagee. Any amount so
advanced for this purpose shall become a part of the debt secured hereby, and
shall be payable on demand, and any amounts so advanced following the occurrence
of an event of default under either the Master Lease or the Loan Documents shall
bear interest at the Default Rate until paid.
(d) Mortgagor shall not, without the prior written consent of
Mortgagee, transfer, assign, hypothecate or encumber the Master Lease or
Mortgagor's Leasehold Estate or any interest therein (other than in connection
with Leases approved by the Mortgagee), consent to any agreement which releases
Mortgagor from any of its obligations under the Master Lease, exercise any
option to purchase the Leased Property under the Master Lease, or surrender,
terminate, or cancel the Master Lease, or renew, extend, modify, change,
supplement, alter or amend the Master Lease or subordinate Mortgagor's Leasehold
Estate or any interest therein to any mortgage against the fee interest of the
lessor under the Master Lease, either orally or in writing. As further security
for the payment and performance of the indebtedness and obligations secured
hereby and for the performance of the covenants of Mortgagor in this Section,
Mortgagor hereby assigns to Mortgagee all of Mortgagor's rights, privileges and
prerogatives, as the lessee under the Master Lease, to renew, extend, surrender,
terminate, cancel, modify, change, supplement, alter, amend, or subordinate the
Master Lease, or to transfer, assign, hypothecate or encumber the Master Lease
or Mortgagor's Leasehold Estate or any interest therein (other than in
connection with the Leases approved by the Mortgagee). Any renewal, extension,
surrender, termination, cancellation, modification, change, supplement,
13
<PAGE>
alteration, amendment or subordination of the Master Lease, without the prior
written consent thereto by Mortgagee, shall be absolutely void and of no force
and effect whatsoever. So long as there is no breach or default under any of the
covenants and agreements herein contained to be performed by Mortgagor or in the
performance or observance by Mortgagor of any of the agreements, covenants or
conditions of the Master Lease, Mortgagee shall have no right to renew, extend,
surrender, terminate, cancel, modify, change, supplement, alter, amend, or
subordinate the Master Lease or to transfer, assign, hypothecate or encumber the
Master Lease or Mortgagor's Leasehold Estate or any interest therein (other than
in connection with Leases approved by the Mortgagee). No release or forbearance
of any of Mortgagor's obligations under the Master Lease, whether pursuant to
the terms of the Master Lease or otherwise, shall release Mortgagor from any of
its obligations under this Mortgage, including, without limitation, Mortgagor's
obligations with respect to the payment of all rent in accordance with the
Master Lease and the performance or observance of all of the agreements,
covenants and conditions in the Master Lease to be performed and observed by the
lessee thereunder.
(e) Mortgagor further covenants and agrees that, in case it shall
acquire the fee title, or any other estate, title or interest, in the land
covered by the Master Lease, this Mortgage shall attach to and cover and be a
first lien upon such other estate so acquired, and such other estate so acquired
by Mortgagor shall be considered as mortgaged, assigned or conveyed to the
Mortgagee and the lien hereof shall be deemed to cover such estate with the same
force and effect as those specifically herein mortgaged, assigned or conveyed.
(f) Mortgagor shall exercise its rights under the Master Lease to
acquire fee simple title to the Leasehold Property either by performance or by
payment of money as provided therein.
Mortgagor shall promptly notify Mortgagee in writing of any default by Mortgagor

Mortgagor in the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants, or
conditions to be performed or observed by Mortgagor under the Master Lease;
promptly notify Mortgagee in writing of the receipt by Mortgagor of any notice

amount equal to 1/12th of the amount which Mortgagee estimates will be required
to make the next annual payments of the premium for the policies of insurance
referred to in this section, multiplied by the number of whole and partial
months which have elapsed since the most recent policy anniversary date for each
such policy ("Insurance Premium"). With each monthly payment under the Note,
Mortgagor will deposit an amount equal to 1/12th of the amount which Mortgagee
estimates will be required to pay the next required annual premium for each
insurance policy referred to in this section. The purpose of these provisions is

Mortgagor shall, within ten (10) days after receipt of demand therefor, deposit
such additional funds as are necessary to make up any deficiencies in amounts
necessary to pay such Insurance Premiums when due. Provided no default exists
hereunder, Mortgagee will apply the amounts so deposited to the payment of such

interest on any amount so deposited, and the money so received may be held and
commingled with Mortgagee's own funds.

expiration date of each insurance policy required pursuant to the Loan

policy certified by Mortgagor as complete and accurate, together with evidence
satisfactory to Mortgagee that the applicable premium has been prepaid.

Property or the Collateral upon foreclosure hereunder will succeed to all of

section, including, without limitation, all rights to all claims under all such
insurance policies regardless of the nature of such claim or when such claim
arose.

of the proceeds to Mortgagor upon any conditions Mortgagee may impose. Mortgagee
may commence, appear in, defend or prosecute any assigned claim or action and
may adjust, compromise, settle and collect all claims and awards assigned to
Mortgagee; provided, however, in no event shall Mortgagee be responsible for any
failure to collect any claim or award, unless such failure is due to the gross

Mortgagee; (iii) the delivery to Mortgagee of plans and specifications for the

evidence acceptable to Mortgagee (aa) that after completion of the work, and
sufficient time has elapsed to re-lease the Property (but in no event longer
than six months after completion of the work), the income from the Property will
be sufficient to pay all expenses and debt service for the Property; (bb) of the
continuation of Leases acceptable to and required by Mortgagee; (cc) that upon
completion of the work, the size, capacity and total value of the Property will

appointment of a receiver of the Property as a matter of strict right and

(e) To enter upon, possess, manage and operate the Property or

manner provided by law, Mortgagee shall be entitled to cause the Property to be
sold at the time and place of sale fixed by it in the notice of sale, at one or
several sales, either as a whole or in separate parcels and in such manner and
order, all as Mortgagee in its sole discretion may determine, at public auction
to the highest bidder for cash, in lawful money of the United States, payable at

shall describe the property sold to such purchaser and shall state that upon the
23
<PAGE>
expiration of the applicable periods for redemption, the holder of such
certificate will be entitled to a deed to the property described in the
certificate. After the expiration of all applicable periods of redemption,
unless the property sold has been redeemed by Mortgagor, the officer who
conducted such sale shall, upon request, execute and deliver an appropriate deed
to the holder of the certificate of purchase or the last certificate of
redemption, as the case may be. The recitals in the deed of any matters or facts
shall be conclusive proof of the truthfulness thereof. Any person, including
Mortgagor or Mortgagee, may purchase at the sale. Nothing contained in this
Mortgage shall be construed to limit or enlarge the rights of Mortgagee to cause
the foreclosure of this Mortgage under the laws of the State of Florida;
(g) To resort to and realize upon the security hereunder and any
other security now or later held by Mortgagee concurrently or successively and
in one or several consolidated or independent judicial actions or lawfully taken
non-judicial proceedings, or both, and to apply the proceeds received upon the
Secured Obligations all in such order and manner as Mortgagee determines in its
sole discretion.
(h) Upon sale of the Property at any judicial or non-judicial
foreclosure, Mortgagee may credit bid (as determined by Mortgagee in its sole
and absolute discretion) all or any portion of the Secured Obligations. In
determining such credit bid, Mortgagee may, but is not obligated to, take into
account all or any of the following: (i) appraisals of the Property as such
appraisals may be discounted or adjusted by Mortgagee in its sole and absolute
underwriting discretion; (ii) expenses and costs incurred by Mortgagee with
respect to the Property prior to foreclosure; (iii) expenses and costs which
Mortgagee anticipates will be incurred with respect to the Property after
foreclosure, but prior to resale, including, without limitation, costs of
structural reports and other due diligence, costs to carry the Property prior to
resale, costs of resale (e.g. commissions, attorneys' fees, and taxes), costs of
any hazardous materials clean-up and monitoring, costs of deferred maintenance,
repair, refurbishment and retrofit, costs of defending or settling litigation
affecting the Property, and lost opportunity costs (if any), including the time
value of money during any anticipated holding period by Mortgagee; (iv)
declining trends in real property values generally and with respect to
properties similar to the Property; (v) anticipated discounts upon resale of the
Property as a distressed or foreclosed property; (vi) the fact of additional
collateral (if any), for the Secured Obligations; and (vii) such other factors
or matters that Mortgagee (in its sole and absolute discretion) deems
appropriate. In regard to the above, Mortgagor acknowledges and agrees that: (w)
Mortgagee is not required to use any or all of the foregoing factors to
determine the amount of its credit bid; (x) this Section does not impose upon
Mortgagee any additional obligations that are not imposed by law at the time the
credit bid is made; (y) the amount of Mortgagee's credit bid need not have any
relation to any loan-to-value ratios specified in the Loan Documents or
24
<PAGE>
previously discussed between Mortgagor and Mortgagee; and (z) Mortgagee's credit
bid may be (at Mortgagee's sole and absolute discretion) higher or lower than
any appraised value of the Property.
6.12 Enforcement of Security Interests. Mortgagee may exercise all
rights of a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code with respect to the
Collateral, including but not limited to taking possession of, holding, and
selling the Collateral and enforcing or otherwise realizing upon any accounts
and general intangibles. Any requirement for reasonable notice of the time and
place of any public sale, or of the time after which any private sale or other
disposition is to be made, will be satisfied by Mortgagee's giving of such
notice to Mortgagor at least 15 days prior to the time of any public sale or the
time after which any private sale or other intended disposition is to be made.
If permitted by statute or court decision, the Collateral may be sold by the
Mortgagee as part of the foreclosure sale of the Property.
6.13 Application of Foreclosure Sale Proceeds. After deducting all
reasonable costs, fees and expenses of any receiver, and of this trust,
including, without limitation, cost of evidence of title and attorneys' fees in
connection with sale and costs and expenses of sale and of any judicial
proceeding wherein such sale may be made, Mortgagee shall apply all proceeds of
any foreclosure sale: (a) to payment of all sums expended by Mortgagee under the
terms hereof and not then repaid, with accrued interest at the rate of interest
specified in the Note to be applicable on or after maturity or acceleration of
the Note; (b) to payment of all other Secured Obligations; and (c) the
remainder, if any, to the person or persons legally entitled thereto.
6.14 Foreclosure Laws. Nothing in this section dealing with foreclosure
procedures or specifying particular actions to be taken by Mortgagee or any
officer conducting the foreclosure sale shall be deemed to contradict or add to
the requirements and procedures now or hereafter specified by Florida law, and
any such inconsistency shall be resolved in favor of Florida law applicable at
the time of foreclosure.
6.15 Application of Other Sums. All sums received by Mortgagee under
Section 6.11 or Section 6.12, less all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by
Mortgagee or any receiver under Section 6.13 or Section 7.2, including, without
limitation, attorneys' fees, shall be applied in payment of the Secured
Obligations in such order as Mortgagee shall determine in its sole discretion;
provided, however, Mortgagee shall have no liability for funds not actually
received by Mortgagee.
6.16 No Cure or Waiver. Neither Mortgagee's nor any receiver's entry
upon and taking possession of all or any part of the Property, nor any
collection of rents, issues, profits, insurance proceeds, condemnation proceeds
or damages, other security or proceeds of other security, or other sums, nor the
25
<PAGE>
application of any collected sum to any Secured Obligation, nor the exercise or
failure to exercise of any other right or remedy by Mortgagee or any receiver
shall cure or waive any breach, Default or notice of default under this
Mortgage, or nullify the effect of any notice of default or sale (unless all
Secured Obligations then due have been paid and performed and Mortgagor has
cured all other defaults), or impair the status of the security, or prejudice
Mortgagee in the exercise of any right or remedy, or be construed as an
affirmation by Mortgagee of any tenancy, lease or option or a subordination of
the lien of this Mortgage.
6.17 Payment of Costs, Expenses and Attorneys' Fees. Mortgagor agrees to
pay to Mortgagee upon thirty (30) days' written notice from Mortgagee, all
reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Mortgagee pursuant to Section 6.2,
including, without limitation the costs of any appraisals, engineering or
environmental testing and evaluations of the Property obtained by Mortgagee, all
costs of any receivership for the Property advanced by Mortgagee, and all
attorneys', legal assistants' and consultants' fees, expert's evidence,
stenographer's charges, publication costs, (which may be estimated as to items
to be expended after foreclosure sale or entry of the decree) costs of procuring
all such abstracts of title, title searches, title insurance policies, and
similar data with respect to title as Mortgagee may deem reasonably necessary
either to prosecute such suit or to evidence to bidders at any sale the true
condition of title to or value of the Property, incurred by Mortgagee, shall
constitute a part of the Secured Obligations and may be included as part of the
amount owing from Mortgagor to Mortgagee at any foreclosure sale, with interest
from the date of expenditure until said sums have been paid at the rate of
interest then applicable to the principal balance of the Note as specified
therein.
6.18 Power to File Notices and Cure Defaults. Upon the occurrence of an
Event of Default, Mortgagor hereby irrevocably appoints Mortgagee and its
successors and assigns, as its attorney-in-fact, which agency is coupled with an
interest, (a) to execute and/or record any notices of completion, cessation of
labor, or any other notices that Mortgagee deems appropriate to protect
Mortgagee's interest, (b) upon the issuance of a deed pursuant to the
foreclosure of this Mortgage or the delivery of a deed in lieu of foreclosure,
to execute all instruments of assignment or further assurance with respect to
the Leases and Income in favor of the grantee of any such deed, as may be
necessary or desirable for such purpose, (c) to prepare, execute and file or
record financing statements, continuation statements, applications for
registration and like papers necessary to create, perfect or preserve
Mortgagee's security interests and rights in or to any of the Collateral, and
(d) upon the occurrence of an event, act or omission which, with notice or
passage of time or both, would constitute a Default, Mortgagee may perform any
obligation of Mortgagor hereunder; provided, however, that: (i) Mortgagee as
such attorney-in-fact shall only be accountable for such funds as are actually
26
<PAGE>
received by Mortgagee; and (ii) Mortgagee shall not be liable to Mortgagor or
any other person or entity for any failure to act under this Section.
ARTICLE 7.
RECEIVER
7.1 Appointment of Receiver. To the extent permitted by law, upon the
occurrence of a Default, Mortgagee shall be entitled, as a matter of absolute
right and without regard to the value of any security for the Secured
Obligations or the solvency of any person liable therefor, to the appointment of
a receiver for the Property, the Leases, and the Income upon ex parte
application to any court of competent jurisdiction. Mortgagor waives any right
to any hearing or notice of hearing prior to the appointment of a receiver.
7.2 Right to Make Repairs, Improvements. Should any part of the Property
come into the possession of Mortgagee or a receiver, whether before or after an
Event of Default, Mortgagee or the receiver and receiver's agents shall be
empowered:
(a) To take possession of the Property, Leases, Income and any
business conducted by Mortgagor or any other person thereon and any business
assets used in connection therewith and any Property in which Mortgagee has a
security interest granted by Mortgagor and, if the receiver deems it
appropriate, to operate the same;
(b) To exclude Mortgagor and Mortgagor's agents, servants, and
employees from the Property;
(c) With or without taking possession of the Property, to collect
the Income, including those past due and unpaid and security deposits;
(d) To rent, lease or let all or any portion of the Property to
any party or parties at such rental and upon such terms as the Mortgagee shall,
and to pay any leasing or rental commissions associated therewith in its
discretion, determine;
(e) To continue the development, marketing and sale of the
Property or any portion thereof;
(f) To complete any construction or development which may be in
progress;
(g) To do such maintenance and make such repairs and alterations
as the receiver deems necessary;
27
<PAGE>
(h) To use all stores of materials, supplies and maintenance
equipment on the Property and to replace and replenish such items at the expense
of the receivership estate;
(i) To pay the operating expenses of the Property, including
costs of management and leasing or marketing thereof (which shall include lease
commissions, sale commissions), payments under contracts and agreements for
development and construction;
(j) To pay all taxes and assessments against the Property and any
property which is collateral for the Secured Obligations, all premiums for
insurance thereon, all utility and other operating expenses, and all sums due
under any prior or subsequent encumbrance;
(k) To borrow from the Mortgagee such funds as may be reasonably
necessary to the effective exercise of the receiver's powers, on such terms as
may be agreed upon by the receiver and the Mortgagee; and
(l) Generally do anything which Mortgagor could legally do if
Mortgagor were in possession of the Property.
All expenses incurred by the receiver or the receiver's agent shall constitute
part of the Secured Obligations. Any revenues collected by the receiver shall be
applied first to the expenses of the receivership (including attorneys' fees
incurred by the receiver and by Mortgagee), to expenses of the Property, and to
preserve, protect, maintain and operate the Property and any other collateral
which is security for the Secured Obligations, and the balance shall be applied
toward the Secured Obligations or any deficiency which may result from any
foreclosure sale, and then in such other manner as the court may direct. Unless
sooner terminated with the express consent of the Mortgagee, any such
receivership will continue until all amounts remaining due under the Note have
been discharged in full, or until title to the Property has passed after
foreclosure sale and all applicable periods of redemption have expired, and in
either case, the court has discharged the receiver. Mortgagor covenants to
promptly reimburse and pay to Mortgagee or such receiver, at the place where the
Note is payable, or at such other place as may be designated in writing, the
amount of all reasonable expenses (including the cost of any insurance, taxes,
or other charges) incurred by Mortgagee or such receiver in connection with its
custody, preservation, use or operation of the Property, together with interest
thereon from the date incurred by Mortgagee or such receiver at the then
applicable interest rate, as set forth in the Note, and all such expenses,
costs, taxes, interest, and other charges shall be part of the Secured
Obligations. It is agreed, however, that the risk of accidental loss or damage
to the Property is undertaken by Mortgagor and, except for Mortgagee's or such
receiver's willful misconduct or gross negligence, Mortgagee or such receiver
shall have no liability whatsoever for decline in value of the Property, for
28
<PAGE>
failure to obtain or maintain insurance, or for failure to determine whether any
insurance ever in force is adequate as to amount or as to the risks insured, or
to complete development.
ARTICLE 8.
ASSIGNMENT OF RENTS AND REVENUES
8.1 Assignment of Rents and Revenues. To further secure the Secured
Obligations, Mortgagor does hereby sell, assign and transfer unto the Mortgagee
(a) all rental and tenancy agreements now or hereafter affecting the Property
("Leases"), (b) all rents, common area charges, tax payments, insurance premiums
and any other payments due to Landlord as a consequence of the use of the
Property, now due or which may hereafter become due under of by virtue of any
Leases, (c) all Income, and (d) any and all future Leases, whether written or
oral, with all security therefor, including all guaranties thereof, now or
hereafter affecting the possession, use and enjoyment of the Property
(collectively "Rents and Revenues"). The Mortgagor does hereby appoint
irrevocably the Mortgagee its true and lawful attorney in its name and stead
(with or without taking possession of the Property) to rent, lease or let any
improvements located on the Property upon the occurrence of, and during the
continuation of, a Default, and upon such terms as said Mortgagee shall, in its
discretion, determine, and to collect all of said Rents and Revenues arising
from or accruing at any time hereafter, and all now due or that may hereafter
become due under each and every of the Leases, or other agreements, written or
verbal, or which may hereafter exist on the Property, on the condition that
Mortgagee hereby grants to Mortgagor a license to collect and retain such Rents
and Revenues prior to the occurrence of any Event of Default under the Loan
Documents. Mortgagor expressly covenants to apply the Rents and Revenues
received, after application for operating expenses permitted hereunder, to
payment of the Secured Obligations as and when the same become due and in
compliance with the Loan Documents. Such license shall be revocable by Mortgagee
upon written notice to Mortgagor at any time after an Event of Default under the
Loan Documents, and immediately upon any such revocation, Mortgagee shall be
entitled to receive, and Mortgagor shall deliver to Mortgagee, any and all Rents
and Revenues theretofore collected by Mortgagor which remain in the possession
or control of Mortgagor and all Leases, and other such agreements. In addition
(and not as an election of remedies), at any time after an Event of Default,
Mortgagee may exercise all rights permitted under Florida Statutes Section
697.07, including applying for a court order requiring Mortgagor to deposit all
rents in the court registry, and Mortgagor consents to the entry of such an
order upon the sworn ex parte motion of Mortgagee that a Default has occurred
hereunder. It is the intention of the Mortgagor to create and grant, and it is
the intention of Mortgagee to create and receive, a present and absolute
assignment of all of the Leases, similar agreements, Rents and Revenues now due
or which may hereafter become due, but it is agreed that the Mortgagee's right
to collect the Rents and Revenues is conditioned upon the existence of an Event
29
<PAGE>
of Default under the Loan Documents. Failure of Mortgagee at any time or from
time to time to enforce its rights under this ARTICLE 8 shall not in any manner
prevent its subsequent enforcement, and Mortgagee is not obligated to collect
anything hereunder, but is accountable only for sums collected. Nothing
contained herein shall be construed as constituting the Mortgagee a mortgagee in
possession in the absence of the taking of actual possession of the Property by
the Mortgagee pursuant to Section 8.7 (Mortgagee's Right of Possession In Case
of Default) hereof. In the exercise of the powers herein granted to the
Mortgagee, no liability shall be asserted or enforced against the Mortgagee, all
such liability being expressly waived and released by Mortgagor.
8.2 Covenants Regarding Leases. Mortgagor agrees:
(a) Not to execute any Leases which affect the Property except on
the form approved by the Mortgagee, without the prior written consent of
Mortgagee.
(b) Not to execute any other assignments of said Leases or any
interest therein or any of the Rents and Revenues thereunder;
(c) That notwithstanding any variation of the terms of the
Mortgage or any extension of time for payment thereunder or any release of part
or parts of the Property, the Leases, Rents and Revenues hereby assigned,
insofar as they relate to the unreleased Property, shall continue as additional
security in accordance with the terms hereof; and
(d) To hold and account for all security deposits in the manner
provided for under any state or local laws or ordinances applicable to the
Property or under the Loan Documents; and
(e) To perform all of the Mortgagor's covenants and agreements
under the Leases and not to suffer or permit to occur any release of liability
of the lessees except in the exercise of its business judgment as a prudent
landlord.
8.3 Representations Regarding Leases. Mortgagor represents and warrants
(a) that, the Leases, if any, are in full force and effect; (b) that the Leases
and the Rents and Revenues thereunder have not been heretofore sold, assigned,
transferred, or set over by Mortgagor or by any person or persons whatsoever;
(c) that no material default exists on the part of the lessees thereunder, or
the Mortgagor as lessor; (d) that the payment of none of the Rents have been or,
except to the extent otherwise prudent under customary commercial standards
exercised in the ordinary course of business will be waived, released, reduced,
discounted or otherwise discharged or compromised by the Mortgagor directly or
indirectly by assuming any lessee's obligations with respect to other premises;
30
<PAGE>
(e) Mortgagor has good right to sell, assign, transfer, and set over the same
and to grant to and confer upon Mortgagee the rights, interests, powers, and
authorities herein granted and conferred.
8.4 Further Assignments. Mortgagor shall give Mortgagee at any time upon
demand any further or additional forms of assignment of transfer of such Rents
and Revenues, Leases, and security as may be reasonably requested by Mortgagee,
and shall deliver to Mortgagee executed copies of all such leases and security.
8.5 Authority of Mortgagee. Any tenants or occupants of any part of the
Property are hereby authorized to recognize the claims of Mortgagee hereunder
without investigating the reason for any action taken by Mortgagee, or the
validity or the amount of indebtedness owing to Mortgagee, or the existence of a
Default or Event of Default under any Loan Document, or the application to be
made by Mortgagee of any amounts to be paid to Mortgagee. The sole signature of
Mortgagee or a receiver shall be sufficient for the exercise of any rights under
this ARTICLE 8 and the sole receipt of Mortgagee or a receiver for any sums
received shall be a full discharge and release therefor to any such tenant or
occupant of the Property; and Mortgagor hereby releases each such tenant and
occupant or purchaser which makes payments to Mortgagee under this ARTICLE 8
from any liability under the applicable Lease or occupancy agreement or
Contract. Checks for all or any part of the rentals collected under this ARTICLE
8 shall be drawn to the exclusive order of Mortgagee or such receiver.
8.6 Indemnification of Mortgagee. Nothing herein contained shall be
deemed to obligate Mortgagee to perform or discharge any obligation, duty, or
liability of lessor under any Lease of the Property, and Mortgagor shall and
does hereby indemnify and hold Mortgagee harmless from any and all liability,
loss, or damage which Mortgagee may or might incur under any Lease of the
Property or by reason of this assignment; and any and all such liability, loss,
or damage incurred by Mortgagee, together with the costs and expenses, including
reasonable attorneys' fees, incurred by Mortgagee in defense of any claims or
demands therefor (whether successful or not), shall be additional Secured
Obligations, and Mortgagor shall reimburse Mortgagee therefor on demand.
8.7 Mortgagee's Right of Possession in Case of an Event of Default. In
any case in which under the provision of this Mortgage, the Mortgagee has a
right to institute foreclosure proceedings, whether before or after the whole
principal sum secured hereby is declared to be immediately due, or whether
before or after the institution of legal proceedings to foreclose the lien
hereof or before or after sale thereunder, promptly upon demand of Mortgagee,
Mortgagor shall surrender to Mortgagee and Mortgagee shall be entitled to take
actual possession of the Property or any part thereof personally, or by its
agents or attorneys, as for condition broken, and Mortgagee in its discretion
may, with or without force and with or without process of law, enter upon and
31
<PAGE>
take and maintain possession of all or any part of the Property, together with
all documents, books, records, papers and accounts of the Mortgagor or then
owners of the Property relating thereto, and may exclude the Mortgagor, its
agents or servants, wholly therefrom and may, as attorney-in-fact or agent of
the Mortgagor, or in its own name as Mortgagee and under the powers herein
granted, hold, operate, manage and control the Property and conduct the
business, if any, thereof, either personally or by its agents, and with full
power to use such measures, legal or equitable, as in its discretion or in the
discretion of its successors or assigns may be deemed proper or necessary to
enforce the payment or security of the rents, issues, revenues and profits of
the Property.
8.8 Severability and Survival. The provisions of this ARTICLE 8 shall
survive the foreclosure of the lien of this Mortgage and the exercise of the
power of sale granted under this Mortgage until the expiration of all periods of
redemption following any such foreclosure or sale and thereafter with respect to
all Rents and Revenues arising prior to or attributable to the period prior to
the expiration of all such redemption periods.
ARTICLE 9.
MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS
9.1 Time of the Essence. Time is of the essence with respect to all
provisions of this Mortgage.
9.2 Rights and Remedies Cumulative. Mortgagee's rights and remedies
under each of the Loan Documents are cumulative of the rights and remedies
available to Mortgagee under each of the other Loan Documents and those
otherwise available to Mortgagee at law or in equity. No act of Mortgagee shall
be construed as an election to proceed under any particular provision of any
Loan Document to the exclusion of any other provision in the same or any other
Loan Document, or as an election of remedies to the exclusion of any other
remedy which may then or thereafter be available to Mortgagee.
9.3 No Implied Waivers. Mortgagee shall not be deemed to have waived any
provision of this Mortgage unless such waiver is in writing and is signed by
Mortgagee. Without limiting the generality of the preceding sentence, neither
Mortgagee's acceptance of any payment with knowledge of a default by Mortgagor,
nor any failure by Mortgagee to exercise any remedy following a default by
Mortgagor shall be deemed a waiver of such default, and no waiver by Mortgagee
of any particular default on the part of Mortgagor shall be deemed a waiver of
any other default or of any similar default in the future.
9.4 No Third Party Rights. No person shall be a third party Mortgagee of
any provision of this Mortgage. All provisions of this Mortgage favoring
32
<PAGE>
Mortgagee are intended solely for the benefit of Mortgagee, and no third party
shall be entitled to assume or expect that Mortgagee will or will not waive or
consent to modification of any such provision in Mortgagee's sole discretion.
9.5 Preservation of Liability and Priority. Without affecting the
liability of Mortgagor or of any other person (except a person expressly
released in writing) for payment and performance of all of the Secured
Obligations, and without affecting the rights of Mortgagee with respect to any
security not expressly released in writing, and without impairing in any way the
priority of this Mortgage over the interests of any person acquired or first
evidenced by recording subsequent to the recording hereof, Mortgagee may, either
before or after the maturity of the Note, and without notice or consent: (a)
release any person liable for payment or performance of all or any part of the
Secured Obligations; (b) make any agreement altering the terms of payment or
performance of all or any of the Secured Obligations; (c) exercise or refrain
from exercising, or waive, any right or remedy which Mortgagee may have under
any of the Loan Documents; (d) accept additional security of any kind for any of
the Secured Obligations; or (e) release or otherwise deal with any real or
personal property securing the Secured Obligations. Any person acquiring or
recording evidence of any interest of any nature in the Property or the
Collateral shall be deemed, by acquiring such interest or recording any evidence
thereof, to have agreed and consented to any or all such actions by Mortgagee.
9.6 Subrogation of Mortgagee. Mortgagee shall be subrogated to the lien
of any previous encumbrance discharged with funds advanced by Mortgagee under
the Loan Documents, regardless of whether such previous encumbrance has been
released of record.
9.7 Notices. Any notice required or permitted to be given by Mortgagor
or Mortgagee under this Mortgage shall be in writing and will be deemed given
(a) upon personal delivery or upon confirmed transmission by telecopier or
similar facsimile transmission device, (b) on the first business day after
receipted delivery to a courier service which guarantees next-business-day
delivery, or (c) on the third business day after mailing, by registered or

grantee or grantees in such deed or deeds, as may be necessary or desirable for
such purpose.
9.9 Defeasance. Upon payment and performance in full of all the Secured
Obligations and all costs of releasing this Mortgage, Mortgagee will execute and

of record.
9.10 Illegality. If any provision of this Mortgage is held to be
illegal, invalid, or unenforceable under present or future laws effective during
the term of this Mortgage, the legality, validity, and enforceability of the
remaining provisions of this Mortgage shall not be affected thereby, and in lieu
of each such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision there shall be added
34
<PAGE>
automatically as a part of this Mortgage a provision as similar in terms to such
illegal, invalid, or unenforceable provision as may be possible and be legal,
valid, and enforceable. If the rights and liens created by this Mortgage shall
be invalid or unenforceable as to any part of the Secured Obligations, then the
unsecured portion of the Secured Obligations shall be completely paid prior to
the payment of the remaining and secured portion of the Secured Obligations, and
all payments made on the Secured Obligations shall be considered to have been
paid on and applied first to the complete payment of the unsecured portion of
the Secured Obligations.
9.11 Obligations Binding Upon Mortgagor's Successors. This Mortgage is
binding upon Mortgagor and Mortgagor's successors and assigns, including all
grantees and remote grantees of any interest of Mortgagor in the Property, and
shall inure to the benefit of Mortgagee, and its successors and assigns, and the
provisions hereof shall likewise be covenants running with the land. The duties,
covenants, conditions, obligations, and warranties of Mortgagor in this Mortgage
shall be joint and several obligations of Mortgagor and Mortgagor's successors
and assigns.
9.12 Merger. No merger shall occur as a result of Mortgagee's acquiring
any other estate in, or any other lien on, the Property unless Mortgagee
consents to a merger in writing.
9.13 Governing Law. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE LOAN DOCUMENTS AND THE RIGHTS
AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER AND THEREUNDER SHALL IN ALL RESPECTS BE

REMEDIES AGAINST SPECIFIC COLLATERAL, WHICH MATTERS SHALL BE GOVERNED BY THE

TRANSACTIONS ENTERED INTO BY THE MORTGAGEE, OTHERWISE PREEMPT COLLATERAL STATE
LAW OR COLORADO LAW; IN WHICH EVENT SUCH FEDERAL LAW SHALL CONTROL. MORTGAGOR
HEREBY IRREVOCABLY SUBMITS TO THE NON-EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF ANY COLORADO OR
