Terms and Conditions

Grantor further represents, warrants, covenants and agrees with Trustee and Beneficiary as follows:

1. Definitions. Capitalized terms used herein when not otherwise defined shall have the meaning given to them in the Trust Agreement.

2. Warranty of Title. Grantor warrants that Grantor has good title to the Real Estate in fee simple and good title to the rest of the Trust Property, subject only to the matters that are set forth in Schedule B attached hereto (the "Permitted Exceptions"), and Grantor shall warrant, defend and preserve title and the rights granted by this Deed of Trust with respect thereto against all claims of all persons and entities. Grantor further warrants that it has the right to grant this Deed of Trust.

3. Taxes. Grantor shall not claim, demand or be entitled to receive any credit or credits toward the satisfaction of this Deed of Trust or on any interest payable for any taxes assessed against the Trust Property or any part thereof, and shall not claim any deduction from the taxable value of the Trust Property by reason of this Deed of Trust.

4. Insurance. In the event of foreclosure of this Deed of Trust or other transfer of title to the Trust Property in satisfaction of the Secured Obligations, all right, title and interest of Grantor in and to any insurance policies then in force shall pass to the purchaser or grantee, and Grantor appoints Beneficiary its attorney-in-fact, in Grantor's name, to assign and transfer all policies and proceeds to purchaser or grantee.

5. Restrictions. Grantor shall not (a) sell, assign, transfer, convey or permit to be transferred or conveyed the Trust Property or any part thereof; (b) enter into any Lease for the Trust Property or any part thereof; or (c) except for the lien of this Deed of Trust and the Permitted Exceptions, further mortgage, nor otherwise encumber the Trust Property nor create or suffer to exist any lien, charge or encumbrance on the Trust Property, or any part thereof, whether superior or subordinate to the lien of this Deed of Trust and whether recourse or nonrecourse, except, in each case, as permitted in the Acme Credit Agreement. In the event of any permitted sale, transfer, conveyance, assignment or other disposition or any part of the Trust Property, this Deed of Trust will remain in effect with respect to all of the remaining Trust Property.

6. Agent's Right to Perform. Pursuant to the terms of the Acme Credit Agreement, if Grantor fails to perform certain covenants or agreements of Grantor under the Acme Credit Agreement and relating to the Trust Property, the Agent may, at any time (but shall be under no obligation to) pay or perform the same, provided that (other than in the case of an emergency) the Agent shall have first given ten days' written notice to Grantor of the Agent's intention to do so, and the amount or cost of any such payment or performance, with interest at the rate per annum applicable to overdue principal amounts of Base Rate Loans (as defined in the Acme Credit Agreement) pursuant to subsection 2.8(d) of the Acme Credit Agreement (the "Applicable Rate"), shall immediately be due from Grantor to Beneficiary and shall be added to the Acme Credit Agreement Obligations, and the same shall be secured by this Deed of Trust and shall be a lien on the Trust Property prior to any right, title to, interest in or claim upon the Trust Property attaching subsequent to the lien of this Deed of Trust.

7. Notice of Acceleration; Remedies.

(a). While a Notice of Acceleration is in effect, in addition to any other rights and remedies Beneficiary may have pursuant to the Trust Agreement,

(i). Beneficiary may direct Trustee to exercise Trustee's power of sale with respect to the Trust Property in a nonjudicial procedure as permitted by applicable law. ["POWER OF SALE" LANGUAGE COMPLYING WITH THE REQUIREMENTS OF APPLICABLE STATE LAW WILL BE INSERTED HERE.]

(ii). Beneficiary may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, (A) institute and maintain an action of judicial foreclosure against all or any part of the Trust Property or (B) take such other action at law or in equity for the enforcement of this Deed of Trust or the Trust Agreement as the law may allow. Beneficiary may proceed in any action to final judgment and execution thereon for all sums due, together with interest at the Applicable Rate and all costs of suit, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements. Interest at the Applicable Rate shall be due on any judgment obtained by Beneficiary from the date of judgment until actual payment is made of the full amount of the judgment.

(iii). Beneficiary may personally, or by its agents, attorneys and employees and without regard to the adequacy or inadequacy of the Trust Property or any other collateral as security for the Secured Obligations enter into and upon the Trust Property and each and every part thereof and exclude Grantor and its agents and employees without liability for trespass, damage or otherwise (Grantor agreeing to surrender possession of the Trust Property to Beneficiary upon demand at any time) and use, operate, manage, maintain and control the Trust Property and every part thereof. Following entry and taking of possession, Beneficiary shall be entitled, without limitation, (x) to lease all or any part or parts of the Trust Property for periods of time and upon conditions as Beneficiary may, in its discretion, deem proper, (y) to enforce, cancel or modify any Lease, and (z) generally to execute, do and perform any other act, deed, matter or thing concerning the Trust Property as Beneficiary shall deem appropriate as fully as Grantor might do.

(b). In case of a trustee's sale or foreclosure sale, the Real Estate may be sold, at Beneficiary's election, in one parcel or in more than one parcel and Beneficiary is specifically empowered (without being required to do so, and in its sole and absolute discretion) to cause successive sales of portions of the Trust Property to be held.

(c). In the event of any breach of any of the covenants, agreements, terms or conditions contained in this Deed of Trust, and notwithstanding to the contrary any exculpatory or nonrecourse language which may be contained herein, Beneficiary or Trustee shall be entitled to enjoin the breach and obtain specific performance of any covenant, agreement, term or condition and Beneficiary and Trustee shall have the right to invoke any equitable right or remedy as though other remedies were not provided for in this Deed of Trust.

8. Right of Beneficiary to Credit Sale. Upon the occurrence of any sale made under this Deed of Trust, whether made under the power of sale or by virtue of judicial proceedings or of a judgment or decree of foreclosure and sale, Beneficiary may bid for and acquire the Trust Property or any part thereof. In lieu of paying cash, Beneficiary may make settlement for the purchase price by crediting upon the Secured Obligations or other sums secured by this Deed of Trust the net sales price after deducting the expenses of sale and the cost of the action and any other sums which Beneficiary is authorized to deduct under this Deed of Trust. In this event, this Deed of Trust and documents evidencing the Secured Obligations and other expenditures secured may be presented to the person or persons conducting the sale in order that the amount so used or applied may be credited upon the Secured Obligations as having been paid.

9. Appointment of Receiver. If a Notice of Acceleration shall be in effect, Beneficiary as a matter of right and without notice to Grantor, unless otherwise required by applicable law, and without regard to the adequacy or inadequacy of the Trust Property or any other collateral as security for the Secured Obligations or any other sums secured by this Deed of Trust or the interest of Grantor therein, shall have the right to apply to any court having jurisdiction to appoint a receiver or receivers or other manager of the Trust Property, and Grantor irrevocably consents to such appointment and waives notice of any application therefor (except as may be required by law). Any receiver or receivers shall have all the usual powers and duties of receivers in like or similar cases and all the powers and duties of Beneficiary in case of entry as provided in this Deed of Trust, including, without limitation and to the extent permitted by law, the right to enter into leases of all or any part of the Trust Property, and shall

continue as such and exercise all such powers until the date of confirmation of sale of the Trust Property unless such receivership is sooner terminated.

10. Extension, Release, etc.

(a). Without affecting the encumbrance or charge of this Deed of Trust upon any portion of the Trust Property not then released as security for the full amount of the Secured Obligations, Beneficiary or any of the Secured Parties may, from time to time and without notice, agree to (i) release any person liable for any portion of the Secured Obligations, (ii) extend the maturity or alter any of the terms of the Secured Obligations, (iii) grant other indulgences, (iv) release or reconvey, or cause to be released or reconveyed at any time at Beneficiary's option any parcel, portion or all of the Trust Property, (v) take or release any other or additional security for any obligation herein mentioned, or (vi) make compositions or other arrangements with debtors.

(b). No recovery of any judgment by Beneficiary and no levy of an execution under any judgment upon the Trust Property or upon any other property of Grantor shall affect the encumbrance of this Deed of Trust or any liens, rights, powers or remedies of Beneficiary or Trustee hereunder, and such liens, rights, powers and remedies shall continue unimpaired.

(c). If Beneficiary shall have the right to foreclose this Deed of Trust or to direct the Trustee to exercise its power of sale, Grantor authorizes Beneficiary at its option to foreclose the lien of this Deed of Trust (or direct the Trustee to sell the Trust Property, as the case may be) subject to the rights of any tenants of the Trust Property. The failure to make any such tenants parties defendant to any foreclosure proceeding and to foreclose their rights, or to provide notice to tenants as required in any statutory procedure governing a sale of the Trust Property by Trustee, or to terminate tenant's rights in such sale will not be asserted by Grantor as a defense to any proceeding instituted by Beneficiary to collect the Secured Obligations or to foreclose this Deed of Trust.

(d). Unless expressly provided otherwise, in the event that Beneficiary's interest in this Deed of Trust and title to the Trust Property or any estate therein shall become vested in the same person or entity, this Deed of Trust shall not merge in title but shall continue as a valid charge on the Trust Property for the amount secured hereby.

11. Security Agreement under Uniform Commercial Code.

(a). It is the intention of the parties that this Deed of Trust shall constitute a Security Agreement within the meaning of the Uniform Commercial Code (the "Code") of the State in which the Trust Property is located. If a Notice of Acceleration shall be in effect, then in addition to having any other right or remedy available at law or in equity, Beneficiary shall have the option of either (i) proceeding under the Code and exercising rights and remedies as may be provided to a secured party by the Code with respect to all or any portion of the Trust Property which is personal property (including, without limitation, taking possession of and selling such property) or (ii) treating such property as real property and proceeding with respect to both the real and personal property constituting the Trust Property in accordance with Beneficiary's rights, powers and remedies with respect to the real property (in which event the default provisions of the Code shall not apply). If Beneficiary shall elect to proceed under the Code, then 10 days' notice of sale of the personal property shall be deemed reasonable notice, and the reasonable expenses of retaking, holding, preparing for sale, selling and the like incurred by Beneficiary shall include, but not be limited to, attorneys' fees and legal expenses. At Beneficiary's request, Grantor shall assemble the personal property and make it available to Beneficiary at a place designated by Beneficiary which is reasonably convenient to both parties.

(b). Grantor and Beneficiary agree, to the extent permitted by law, that: (i) this Deed of Trust upon recording or registration in the real estate records of the proper office shall constitute a financing statement filed as a "fixture filing" within the meaning of Sections 9–313 and 9–402 of the Code; (ii) Grantor is the record owner of the Real Estate; and (iii) the addresses of Grantor and Beneficiary are as set forth on the first page of this Deed of Trust.

(c). Grantor, upon request by Beneficiary from time to time, shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to Beneficiary one or more separate security agreements, in form satisfactory to Beneficiary, covering all or any part of the Trust Property and will further execute, acknowledge and deliver, or cause to be executed, acknowledged and delivered, any financing statement, affidavit, continuation statement or certificate or other document as may be necessary or as Beneficiary may request in order to perfect, preserve, maintain, continue or extend the security interest under and the priority of this Deed of Trust and such security instrument. Grantor further agrees to pay to Beneficiary on demand all costs and expenses incurred by Beneficiary in connection with the preparation, execution, recording, filing and refiling of any such document and all reasonable costs and expenses of any record searches for financing statements Beneficiary shall reasonably require. If Grantor shall fail to furnish any financing or continuation statement within 10 days after request by Beneficiary, then pursuant to the provisions of the Code, Grantor authorizes Beneficiary, without the signature of Grantor, to execute and file any such financing and continuation statements. The filing of any financing or continuation statements in the records relating to personal property or chattels shall not be construed as in any way impairing the right of Beneficiary to proceed against any personal property encumbered by this Deed of Trust as real property, as set forth above.

12. Assignment of Rents. Grantor assigns to Trustee, for the benefit of Beneficiary, the Rents as further security for the payment of the Secured Obligations and the performance of all of the obligations of Grantor contained in the Security Documents, the Security Documents and the Trust Agreement, and Grantor grants to Trustee and Beneficiary the right to enter the Trust Property for the purpose of collecting the same and to let the Trust Property or any part thereof, and to apply the Rents on account of the Secured Obligations. The foregoing assignment and grant is present and absolute and shall continue in effect until the reversion of the Trust Estate to Grantor in accordance with the provisions of subsection 7.10 of the Trust Agreement, but Beneficiary and Trustee hereby waive the right to enter the Trust Property for the purpose of collecting the Rents and Grantor shall be entitled to collect, receive, use and retain the Rents until a Notice of Acceleration shall be in effect; such right of Grantor to collect, receive, use and retain the Rents may be revoked by Beneficiary upon the delivery of a Notice of Acceleration to Beneficiary by giving not less than 15 days' written notice of such revocation to Grantor; in the event such notice is given, Grantor shall pay over to Beneficiary, or to any receiver appointed to collect the Rents, any lease security deposits.

13. Additional Rights. The holder of any subordinate lien or subordinate deed of trust on the Trust Property shall have no right to terminate any Lease whether or not such Lease is subordinate to this Deed of Trust nor shall Grantor consent to any holder of any subordinate lien or subordinate deed of trust joining any tenant under any Lease in any trustee's sale or action to foreclose the lien or modify, interfere with, disturb or terminate the rights of any tenant under any Lease. By recordation of this Deed of Trust all subordinate lienholders and the trustees and beneficiaries under subordinate deeds of trust are subject to and notified of this provision, and any action taken by any such lienholder or trustee or beneficiary contrary to this provision shall be null and void. Upon the delivery of a Notice of Acceleration to Beneficiary, Beneficiary may, in its sole discretion and without regard to the adequacy of its security under this Deed of Trust, apply all or any part of any amounts on deposit with Beneficiary under this Deed of Trust against all or any part of the Secured Obligations as more fully set forth in the Trust Agreement. Any such application shall not be construed to cure or waive any Notice of Acceleration or invalidate any act taken by Beneficiary on account of such Notice of Acceleration.

14. Notices. All notices or other communications hereunder shall be given in the manner and to the addresses determined under subsection 7.1 of the Trust Agreement.

15. No Oral Modification. This Deed of Trust may not be changed or terminated orally. Any agreement made by Grantor and Beneficiary after the date of this Deed of Trust relating to this Deed of Trust shall be superior to the rights of the holder of any intervening or subordinate deed of trust, lien or encumbrance. Trustee's execution of any written agreement between Grantor and Beneficiary shall not be required for the effectiveness thereof as between Grantor and Beneficiary.

16. Partial Invalidity. In the event any one or more of the provisions contained in this Deed of Trust shall for any reason be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality or

unenforceability shall not affect any other provision hereof, but each shall be construed as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been included. Notwithstanding to the contrary anything contained in this Deed of Trust or in any provisions of the Trust Agreement, the Acme Credit Agreement, the Public Debt Indentures, the Private Debt Instruments or the Security Documents, the obligations of Grantor and of any other obligor under the Secured Obligations shall be subject to the limitation that neither Beneficiary or the Secured Parties shall charge, take or receive, nor shall Grantor or any other obligor be obligated to pay to any of them, any amounts constituting interest in excess of the maximum rate permitted by law to be charged by Beneficiary or any of the Secured Parties, as the case may be.

17. Grantor's Waiver of Rights. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Grantor waives the benefit of all laws now existing or that may subsequently be enacted providing for (i) any appraisement before sale of any portion of the Trust Property, (ii) any extension of the time for the enforcement of the collection of the Secured Obligations or the creation or extension of a period of redemption from any sale made in collecting such debt, and (iii) exemption of the Trust Property from attachment, levy or sale under execution or exemption from civil process. To the full extent Grantor may do so, Grantor agrees that Grantor will not at any time insist upon, plead, claim or take the benefit or advantage of any law in force providing for any appraisement, valuation, stay, exemption, extension or redemption, or requiring foreclosure of this Deed of Trust before exercising any other remedy granted hereunder and Grantor, for Grantor and its successors and assigns, and for any and all persons ever claiming any interest in the Trust Property, to the extent permitted by law, waives and releases all rights of redemption, valuation, appraisement, stay of execution, notice of election to mature or declare due the whole of the secured indebtedness and marshalling in the event of exercise by Trustee or Beneficiary of the power of sale or other rights hereby created.

18. Remedies Not Exclusive. Beneficiary and Trustee shall be entitled to enforce payment of the Secured Obligations and performance of all of the obligations of Grantor contained in the Security Documents, the Secured Instruments and the Trust Agreement and to exercise all rights and powers under this Deed of Trust, the Security Documents, the Secured Instruments, the Trust Agreement or other agreement or any laws in force, notwithstanding some or all of the Secured Obligations may be otherwise secured, whether by deed of trust, mortgage, security agreement, pledge, lien, assignment or otherwise. Neither the acceptance of this Deed of Trust nor its enforcement, shall prejudice or in any manner affect Beneficiary's or Trustee's right to realize upon or enforce any other security held by Beneficiary or Trustee, it being agreed that Beneficiary and Trustee shall be entitled to enforce this Deed of Trust and any other security now or hereafter held by Beneficiary or Trustee in such order and manner as Beneficiary may determine in its absolute discretion. No remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to Trustee or Beneficiary is intended to be exclusive of any other remedy herein or by law provided or permitted, but each shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute. Every power or remedy given by the Trust Agreement or any of the Security Documents to Beneficiary or Trustee or to which either may otherwise be entitled, may be exercised, concurrently or independently, from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient by Beneficiary or Trustee, as the case may be. In no event shall Beneficiary or Trustee, in the exercise of the remedies provided in this Deed of Trust (including, without limitation, in connection with the assignment of Rents, or the appointment of a receiver and the entry of such receiver on to all or any part of the Trust Property), be deemed a "mortgagee in possession," and neither Beneficiary nor Trustee shall in any way be made liable for any act, either of commission or omission, in connection with the exercise of such remedies.

19. Multiple Security. If (a) the Premises shall consist of one or more parcels, whether or not contiguous and whether or not located in the same county, or (b) in addition to this Deed of Trust, Beneficiary shall now or hereafter hold or be the beneficiary of one or more additional mortgages, liens, deeds of trust or other security (directly or indirectly) for the Secured Obligations upon other property in the State in which the Premises are located (whether or not such property is owned by Grantor or by others), or (c) both the circumstances described in clauses (a) and (b) shall be true, then to the fullest extent permitted by law, Beneficiary may, at its election, commence or consolidate in a single trustee's sale or foreclosure action all trustee's sale or foreclosure proceedings against all such collateral securing the Secured Obligations (including the Trust Property), which action may be brought or consolidated in the courts of, or sale conducted in, any county in which any of such collateral is located. Grantor acknowledges that the right to maintain a consolidated trustee's sale or foreclosure action is a specific

inducement to some or all of the Secured Parties to make certain loans to and to enter into certain agreements with Grantor, and for Beneficiary to enter into the Trust Agreement, and Grantor expressly and irrevocably waives any objections to the commencement or consolidation of the foreclosure proceedings in a single action and any objections to the laying of venue or based on the grounds of forum non conveniens which it may now or hereafter have. Grantor further agrees that if Trustee or Beneficiary shall be prosecuting one or more foreclosure or other proceedings against a portion of the Trust Property or against any collateral other than the Trust Property, which collateral directly or indirectly secures the Secured Obligations, or if Beneficiary shall have obtained a judgment of foreclosure and sale or similar judgment against such collateral (or, in the case of a trustee's sale, shall have met the statutory requirements therefor with respect to such collateral), then, whether or not such proceedings are being maintained or judgments were obtained in or outside the State in which the Premises are located, Beneficiary may commence or continue any trustee's sale or foreclosure proceedings and exercise its other remedies granted in this Deed of Trust against all or any part of the Trust Property and Grantor waives any objections to the commencement or continuation of a foreclosure of this Deed of Trust or exercise of any other remedies hereunder based on such other proceedings or judgments, and waives any right to seek to dismiss, stay, remove, transfer or consolidate either any action under this Deed of Trust or such other proceedings on such basis. The commencement or continuation of proceedings to sell the Trust Property in a trustee's sale, to foreclose this Deed of Trust or the exercise of any other rights hereunder or the recovery of any judgment by Beneficiary or the occurrence of any sale by the Trustee in any such proceedings shall not prejudice, limit or preclude Beneficiary's right to commence or continue one or more trustee's sales, foreclosure or other proceedings or obtain a judgment against (or, in the case of a trustee's sale, to meet the statutory requirements for, any such sale of) any other collateral (either in or outside the State in which the Real Estate is located) which directly or indirectly secures the Secured Obligations, and Grantor expressly waives any objections to the commencement of, continuation of, or entry of a judgment in such other sales or proceedings or exercise of any remedies in such sales or proceedings based upon any action or judgment connected to this Deed of Trust, and Grantor also waives any right to seek to dismiss, stay, remove, transfer or consolidate either such other sales or proceedings or any sale or action under this Deed of Trust on such basis. It is expressly understood and agreed that to the fullest extent permitted by law, Beneficiary may, at its election, cause the sale of all collateral which is the subject of a single trustee's sale or foreclosure action at either a single sale or at multiple sales conducted simultaneously and take such other measures as are appropriate in order to effect the agreement of the parties to dispose of and administer all collateral securing the Secured Obligations (directly or indirectly) in the most economical and least time-consuming manner.
