2.

To secure the payment of the Note, the Debtor executed a Deed of Trust dated

May 10, 2010, which is recorded in the Office of the Register of Deeds for Knox County, Tennessee as Instrument No. 201005110070743 (the Deed of Trust). A copy of the Deed of Trust is attached hereto as Exhibit B. 3. The Deed of Trust encumbers the Debtors real property, which is more

particularly described in the Deed of Trust (the Property). The value of the Property is approximately $850,000 (See Schedule A). 4. The contract rate and the default rate of interest on the Note is 6%. A late charge

of 5% of overdue principal and interest applies to any payment under the Note which is not paid by the end of fifteen calendar days after the date it is due. 5. As of December 7, 2011, the date of the Debtors petition, the principal balance

owed on the Note was $876,462.80; accrued but unpaid interest was in the amount of $8,356.41; attorneys fees were in the amount of 2,500.00; and late charges were in the amount of $698.52, for a total amount due of $888,017.73 as of the petition date. From and after the petition date, interest has accrued in the amount of $144.08 per day and late charges have accrued in the amount of $349.26 per month on the 10th of each month. 6. In addition to the amount owed under the Note, the debtor also owes Knox

County real property taxes in the amount of $8,239.03. The real property taxes constitute a lien on the Property which is superior to CCMTs lien. 7. Based upon the amount owed on the real property taxes and the Note, there is no

equity in the Property, and the Property is not necessary for an effective reorganization of the debtors financial affairs. WHEREFORE, because CCMTs interest is not adequately protected, because there is no

equity in the Property securing CCMTs claim, and because the Property is not necessary for an effective reorganization, CCMT requests modification of the automatic stay to permit it to enforce its Deed of Trust in accordance with applicable state law. CCMT also requests the waiver of the 14-day stay period provided for in Rule 4001(a)(3) of the Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure.
