        3.    Preservation and Maintenance of Property.    Grantor shall: (a) not commit waste or permit impairment or deterioration of the Property; (b) not abandon the Property, (c) keep the Property (or cause the Property to be kept) in good repair and restore or repair promptly, in a good and workmanlike manner, all or any part of the Property to the equivalent of its original condition as of the date of this Deed of Trust, or such other condition as Agent may approve in writing, upon any damage or loss thereto; (d) comply (or cause compliance) in all material respects with all laws, ordinances, regulations and requirements of any governmental body applicable to the Property and (e) give notice in writing to Agent of and, unless otherwise directed in writing by Agent, appear in and defend any action or proceeding purporting to affect the Property, the security granted by the Loan Documents or the rights or powers of Agent.

        6.    Assignment of Rents.    

        (a)   To facilitate the payment and performance of the Indebtedness and Obligations, Grantor absolutely and unconditionally assigns and transfers to Agent, for the benefit of Agent and Lender, all of Grantor's right, title and interest in and to (i) the Leases, (ii) the Rents and the immediate and continuing right to collect and receive all of the Rents, and (iii) any and all rights and claims of any kind that Grantor may have now or in the future against any present or future tenant (including Master Tenant), subtenant or occupant of the Property (a "Tenant"). In furtherance of this assignment, and not in lieu thereof, promptly upon request by Agent, Grantor agrees to execute and deliver such further assignments as Agent may from time to time require.

        (b)   All of the Rents and all proceeds payable under any policy of insurance covering loss of rents resulting from untenantability caused by damage to any part of the Property, together with any and all rights that Grantor may have against any Tenant under the Leases or any subtenants or occupants of any part of the Property and any award made hereafter to Grantor in any court proceedings involving any of the Tenants or in any bankruptcy, insolvency, or reorganization proceedings in any state or federal court, and all payments by Tenants in lieu of Rent, are hereby absolutely and unconditionally assigned to Agent, for the benefit of Agent and Lender, to be applied by Agent in accordance with the terms of the Loan Agreement. It is understood and agreed by the parties that this assignment of the Leases and Rents is intended to be and is a present, absolute, and unconditional assignment from Grantor to Agent, and not merely the passing of a security interest, and shall, immediately upon execution, give Agent the right to collect the Rents and to apply them in payment of the Indebtedness. Such assignment and grant shall continue in effect until the Indebtedness is paid in full. Subject to the provisions set forth herein and, so long as there shall not have occurred an Event of Default which is continuing, Grantor shall have a license, without joinder of Agent, to enforce the Leases subject to the terms of the Loan Documents, and to collect the Rents as they come due (but not more than one (i) month in advance and excluding any lease termination, cancellation or similar payments which Grantor agrees shall be held in trust and turned over to Agent to be applied to the Indebtedness in accordance with the terms of the Loan Agreement) and to retain, use and enjoy the same. The Rents shall be held by Grantor in trust, to be applied first to the payment of all impositions, levies, taxes, assessments and other charges upon the Property, second to maintenance of insurance policies upon the Property required hereby, third to the expenses of Property operations, including maintenance and repairs required hereby (other than payment of fees to Affiliates of Grantor), fourth to the payment of that portion of the Indebtedness then due and payable, and fifth, the balance, if any, to or as directed by Grantor. Grantor shall deliver such other Rents to Agent as are necessary for the payment of the Indebtedness as such sums become due. If an Event of Default has occurred, Grantor's right to collect and secure the Rents shall cease and Agent shall have the sole right, with or without taking possession of the Property to collect all Rents.

        (c)   Grantor hereby irrevocably appoints Agent its true and lawful attorney-in-fact, with full power of substitution and with full power of substitution and with full power for Agent in its own name and capacity or in the name and capacity of Grantor to demand and collect any and all Rents and to file any claim or take any other action or proceeding and make any settlement regarding the Leases. All Tenants are hereby expressly authorized and directed to pay to Agent, or to such nominee as Agent may designate in a writing delivered to such Tenants, all amounts due Grantor pursuant to the Leases. All Tenants are expressly relieved of all duty, liability or obligation to Grantor in respect of all payments so made to Agent or such nominee.



        (d)   After an Event of Default, Agent may, at any time without notice, either in person, by agent or by a receiver appointed by a court, and without regard to the adequacy of any security for the Indebtedness and the Obligations and without regard to solvency of Grantor:

              (i)  Enter upon, take possession of and manage the Property, or any part thereof, for the purpose of collecting the Rents in its own name sue for or otherwise collect the Rents, including those past due and unpaid, and apply the same, less costs and expenses of operation and collection, including reasonable attorney's fees, upon the Indebtedness and in such order as Agent may so determine;

             (ii)  Dispossess by the usual summary proceedings any Tenant defaulting in the payment thereof to Grantor, lease the Property or any party thereof, repair, restore, and improve the Property;

            (iii)  Apply the Rent after payment of Property expenses as determined by Agent to the Indebtedness in accordance with the terms of the Loan Agreement; and

            (iv)  Apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for specific performance of this Deed of Trust, an injunction against the violation hereof and/or the appointment of a receiver.

        (e)   The collection of Rents, or the entering upon and taking possession of the Property, or the application thereof as aforesaid, shall note cure or waive any Event of Default or notice of an Event of Default hereunder or invalidate any act done in response to such Event of Default pr pursuant to such notice of an Event of Default. In the event Grantor, as lessor under the Leases, shall fail to perform and fulfill in any material respect any material term, covenant, condition, or provision in the Leases, on its part to be performed or fulfilled, at the time and in the manner in the Leases provided, or if the Grantor shall suffer or permit to occur any breach or default under the provisions of the Leases, or any of them, and such default shall give the Tenant thereunder the right to terminate its Lease or otherwise shall continue for a period of thirty (30) days following the giving of written notice of such default to Grantor, then and in any such event, such breach or default shall constitute an Event of Default.

        (f)    In the event Grantor fails to perform any Lease covenant, Agent may, at its option, upon prior notice to Grantor (except in the event of an emergency) perform any Lease covenant for and on behalf of Grantor, and all monies expended in so doing shall be chargeable to Grantor and added to the Indebtedness and shall be immediately due and payable.

        (g)   Grantor hereby covenants and agrees as follows:

              (i)  This Deed of Trust transfers to Agent all of Grantor's right, title, and interest in any security deposits held by Grantor, provided that Grantor shall have the right to retain and apply the security deposit so long as no Event of Default has occurred under this Deed of Trust or the Loan Documents. Agent shall have no obligation to any Tenant with respect to its security deposit unless and until Agent comes into possession of the deposit.

             (ii)  Agent may assign its right, title and interest in the Leases, Rents and other Property, and any subsequent assignee shall have all of the rights and powers provided to Agent by this Deed of Trust.

            (iii)  Grantor shall not without the prior written consent of Agent: (a) perform any act or execute any other instrument which might interfere with the exercise of Agent's or Lender's rights hereunder; (b) execute any assignment, pledge or hypothecation of Rents or any of the Leases; or (c) suffer or permit any of the Leases to become subordinate to any lien other than the lien of this Deed of Trust.

        (h)   This Deed of Trust shall not be deemed to impose upon Agent or Lender any of the obligations or duties of the landlord or Grantor provided in any Lease. Grantor hereby acknowledges and agrees: (i) Grantor is and will remain liable under the Leases to the same extent as though this Deed of Trust had not been made; and (ii) Agent has not by this Deed of Trust assumed any of the obligations of Grantor under the Leases, except as to such obligations which arise after such time as


Agent shall have assumed actual ownership or control of the Property. This Deed of Trust shall not make Agent responsible for the control, care, management, or repair of the Property or any personal property or for the carrying out of any of the terms of the Leases unless and until Agent takes possession or actual control of the Property. Agent and Lender shall not be liable in any way for any injury or damage to person or property sustained by any person or persons, firm, or corporation in or about the Property absent gross negligence or willful misconduct by such Person.

        (i)    In the event any Tenant should be the subject of any proceeding under the Federal Bankruptcy Code or any other federal, state, or local statute which provides for the possible termination or rejection of any Lease, Grantor covenants and agrees no settlement for damages shall be made without the prior written consent of Agent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, and any check in payment of damages for rejection of any Lease will be made payable both to Grantor and Agent. Grantor hereby assigns any such payment to Agent and further covenants and agrees that it will duly endorse to the order of Agent any such check.

        (j)    After an Event of Default, then, without notice to, or the consent of, Grantor, Agent shall be entitled to exercise all of the rights and remedies contained in this Deed of Trust or in any other Loan Document or otherwise available at law or in equity including, without limitation, the right to do any one or more of the following:

              (i)  To enter upon, take possession of and manage the Property for the purpose of collecting the Rents;

             (ii)  Dispossess by the usual summary proceedings any Tenant defaulting in the payment thereof to Grantor;

            (iii)  Lease the Property or any part thereof;

            (iv)  Repair, restore, and improve the Property,

             (v)  Apply the Rents after payment of Property expenses as determined by Agent to the Indebtedness and the Obligations in such order as Agent may determine; and

            (vi)  Apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for specific performance of this Deed of Trust, an injunction against the violation hereof and/or the appointment of a receiver.

        (k)   Grantor hereby agrees to indemnify Agent and Lender to hold Agent and Lender harmless from any liability, loss or damages including, without limitation, reasonable attorney's fees, costs and expenses which may or might be incurred by Agent under the Leases or by reason of this Deed of Trust, and from any and all claims and demands which may be asserted against Agent or Lender by reason of any term, covenant or agreement contained in any of the Leases, except for any such liability, loss or damage resulting solely from Agent's or Lender's gross negligence or willful misconduct.

        (l)    The assignment of Leases and Rents set forth in this Section 6 and the granting clauses of this Deed of Trust shall run with the land and be good and valid against Grantor or those claiming by, under or through Grantor, from the date hereof and such assignment shall continue to be operative during the foreclosure or any other proceeding taken to enforce this Deed of Trust. In the event of a sale or foreclosure which shall result in a deficiency, such assignment shall stand as security during the redemption period of the payment of such deficiency. Agent shall be permitted, at its sole option, to exercise remedies under such assignment separately from remedies exercised against other portions of the Property.

        7.    Statements by Grantor.    Grantor shall within ten (10) days after Agent's request, furnish Agent with a written statement, duly acknowledged, setting forth the sums, according to Grantor's books and records, secured by the Loan Documents and any right of set-off, counterclaim or other defense which exists against such sums and the Obligations.

        8.    No Additional Liens, Encumbrances or Indebtedness.    Grantor covenants not to execute any mortgage, deed of trust, security agreement, assignment of leases and rents or other agreement granting a lien (except the liens granted to Agent by the Loan Documents) against or encumbrance on



the Property or take or fail to take any other action which would result in a lien against the Property or the interest of Grantor (or Guarantor) in the Property without the prior written consent of Agent; provided, however, Grantor may in good faith, by appropriate proceeding, contest the validity or amount of any asserted lien in accordance with the terms of the Loan Agreement and pending such contest, Grantor shall not be deemed to be in default hereunder.

        9.    Grantor and Lien Not Released.    Without affecting the liability of Grantor for any of the Indebtedness or the Obligations, or any other person liable for the payment of the Indebtedness or the performance of any Obligations, and without affecting the lien or charge of this Deed of Trust as security for the payment of the Indebtedness, Agent may, from time to time and without notice to any junior lien holder or holder of any right or other interest in and to the Property: (a) release any person liable for payment of all or any portion of the Indebtedness or performance of the Obligations; (b) waive or modify any provision of this Deed of Trust or the other Loan Documents or grant other indulgences; (c) release all or any part of the Property; (d) take additional security for any obligation herein mentioned; (e) subordinate the lien or charge of this Deed of Trust; (f) consent to the granting of any easement; or (g) consent to any map, plat or plan of the Property.

        In accordance with California Code of Civil Procedure Section 726.5, Lender may waive its lien against the Property or any portion thereof, together with fixtures or personal property thereon, to the extent such property is found to be environmentally impaired, and may exercise any and all rights and remedies of an unsecured creditor against Borrower and all of Borrower's assets and property for the recovery of any deficiency, including, without limitation, seeking an attachment order under California Code of Civil Procedure Section 483.010. No such waiver shall be final or binding on Lender unless and until a final money judgment is obtained against Borrower. As between Lender and Borrower, for purposes of California Code of Civil Procedure Section 726.5, Borrower shall have the burden of proving that the release or threatened release of any Hazardous Materials was not knowingly or negligently caused or contributed to, or knowingly or willfully permitted or acquiesced to by Borrower or any related party (or any affiliate or agent of Borrower or any related party) and that Borrower made written disclosure of the release to Lender or that Lender otherwise obtained actual knowledge thereof prior to the making of the loan evidenced by the Note. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Deed of Trust or the other Loan Documents, Borrower shall be fully and personally liable for all judgments and awards entered against Borrower pursuant to California Code of Civil Procedure 726.5 and such liability shall be an exception to any non-recourse or exculpatory provision in this Deed of Trust or the other Loan Documents and shall not be limited to the original principal amount of the obligations secured by this Deed of Trust. Borrower's obligations hereunder shall survive the foreclosure, deed in lieu of foreclosure, release, reconveyance or any other transfer of the Property or this Deed of Trust. For the purpose of any action brought under this Section, Borrower hereby waives the defense of laches and any applicable statute of limitations. For purposes of California Code of Civil Procedure 726.5, the acts, knowledge and notice of each "726.5 Party" shall be attributed to and be deemed to have been performed by the party or parties then obligated on and liable for payment of the Note, As used herein, "726.5 Party" shall mean Borrower, any successor owner to Borrower of all or any portion of the Property, any related party of Borrower or any such successor and any affiliate or agent of Borrower, any such successor or any such related party.

        10.    Uniform Commercial Code Security Agreement.    

        (a)   This Deed of Trust shall cover, and the Property shall include, all property now or hereafter affixed or attached to the Land, which to the fullest extent permitted by law, shall be deemed fixtures and a part of the Land. In addition, this Deed of Trust shall constitute a security agreement pursuant to the UCC for any portion of the Property which, under applicable law, may be subject to a security interest pursuant to the UCC (such portion of the Property is hereinafter called the "Personal Property") and Grantor hereby grants to Agent, for the benefit of Agent and Lender, a security interest in the Personal Property. Agent shall have all of the rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC as well as all other rights and remedies available at law or in equity.



        (b)   Grantor hereby authorizes Agent to file any financing statements, as well as extensions, renewals and amendments thereof, and reproductions of this Deed of Trust, all in such form as Agent may require to perfect a security interest with respect to the Personal Property. Grantor hereby authorizes and empowers Agent and irrevocably appoints Agent its agent and attorney-in-fact to execute and file, on Grantor's behalf, all financing statements and refilings and continuations thereof as Agent deems necessary or advisable to create, preserve and protect such lien. Grantor shall pay all costs of filing such financing statements and any extensions, renewals, amendments and releases thereof, and shall pay all reasonable costs and expenses of any record searches for financing statements as Agent may reasonably require.

        (c)   Grantor shall not, without the prior written consent of Agent, sell, assign, transfer, encumber, remove or permit to be removed from the Property any of the Personal Property. So long as no Event of Default exists, Grantor may sell or otherwise dispose of the Personal Property when obsolete, worn out, inadequate, unserviceable or unnecessary for use in the operation of the Property, but only upon replacing the same with other Personal Property at least equal in value and utility to the disposed Personal Property. Any replacement or substituted Personal Property shall be subject to the security interest granted herein.

        (d)   To the extent permitted by law, Grantor, Lender and Agent agree that with respect to all items of Personal Property which are or will become fixtures on the Land, this Deed of Trust, upon recording or registration in the real estate records of the proper office, shall constitute a "fixture filing" within the meaning of the UCC.

        (e)   After an Event of Default, Agent may exercise in respect of the Personal Property, in addition to all other rights and remedies provided for herein or otherwise available to it, all the rights and remedies of a secured party on default under the UCC (whether or not the UCC applies to the affected Personal Property) and also may: (i) require Grantor to, and Grantor hereby agrees that it will, at its expense and upon request of Agent, forthwith assemble all or part of the Personal Property as directed by Agent and make it available to Agent at any reasonable place or places designated by Agent; and (ii) without notice except as specified below, sell, lease or otherwise dispose of the Personal Property or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale, and without the necessity of gathering at the place of sale of the property to be sold, at any of Agent's offices or elsewhere, at such time or times, for cash, on credit or for future delivery, and at such price or prices and upon such other terms as Agent may deem commercially reasonable.

        (f)    Grantor agrees that, to the extent notice of sale shall be required by law, a reasonable authenticated notification of disposition shall be a notification given at least ten (10) days prior to any such sale and such notice shall (i) describe Agent and Grantor, (ii) describe the Personal Property that is the subject of the intended disposition, (iii) state the method of intended disposition, (iv) state that Grantor is entitled to an accounting of the Indebtedness and stating the charge, if any, for an accounting, and (v) state the time and place of any public disposition or the time after which any private sale is to be made. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the contrary, no notification need be given to Grantor if it has authenticated after default a statement renouncing or modifying any right to notification of sale or other intended disposition. At any sale of the Personal Property, if permitted by law, Agent may bid (which bid may be, in whole or in part, in the form of cancellation of indebtedness) for the purchase, lease, license or other disposition of the Personal Property or any portion thereof for the account of Agent. Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of Personal Property regardless of notice of sale having been given. Agent may disclaim any warranties that might arise in connection with the sale, lease, license or other disposition of the Personal Property and have no obligation to provide any warranties at such time. Agent may adjourn any public or private sale from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed therefore, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which it was so adjourned. To the extent permitted by law, Grantor hereby specifically waives all rights of redemption, stay or appraisal which it has or may have under any applicable law now existing or hereafter enacted.


        (g)   After an Event of Default, Agent or its agents or attorneys shall have the right without further notice or demand or legal process (unless the same shall be required by applicable law), personally, or by its agents or attorneys, (i) to enter upon, occupy and use any premises owned or leased by Grantor or where the Personal Property is located (or is believed to be located) for so long as such entry, occupancy and use is necessary, without any obligation to pay rent to Grantor, to render the Personal Property useable or saleable and to remove the Personal Property or any part thereof therefrom to the premises of Agent or any agent of Agent for such time as Agent may desire in order to effectively collect or liquidate the Personal Property and use in connection with such removal any and all services, supplies and other facilities of Grantor; (ii) to make copies of and have access to Grantor's original books and records, to obtain access to Grantor's data processing equipment, computer hardware and software relating to the Personal Property and to use all of the foregoing and the information contained therein in any manner Agent deems appropriate; and (iii) to notify postal authorities to change the address for delivery of Grantor's mail to an address designated by Agent and to receive, open and dispose of all mail addressed to Grantor.

        11.    Events of Default; Acceleration of Indebtedness.    The occurrence of any one or more of the following events shall constitute an "Event of Default" under this Deed of Trust:

        (a)   failure of Borrower Parties to pay, within five (5) days after the due date, any of the Indebtedness, including any payment due under the Note, or Borrower Parties' failure to pay the Loan at the Maturity Date, whether by acceleration or otherwise; or

        (b)   failure of Grantor to strictly comply with Section 8 (no additional liens) 6(f)(iii) (no interference with Agent's liens on Leases and Rents) of this Deed of Trust; or

        (c)   failure of Borrower Parties to satisfy each and every Obligation not set forth in subsection (b) above, and the continuance of such failure for ten (10) days after notice by Agent to Borrower Parties; provided, however, Borrower Parties shall have an additional thirty (30) days to cure such failure if (a) such Obligation cannot by its nature reasonably be cured within ten (10) days; (b) such failure does not involve the failure to make payments on a monetary obligation; (c) if Borrower Parties commence to cure such failure promptly after written notice thereof and thereafter diligently pursues the curing thereof, and (d) Borrower Parties provide Agent with security reasonably satisfactory to Agent against any interruption of payment or impairment of collateral as a result of such continuing failure, Borrower Parties shall not be in default hereunder during such additional thirty (30) day period of diligent curing;

        (d)   Grantor changes the state of its formation or its name without providing Agent thirty (30) days prior written notice;

        (e)   the occurrence of an Event of Default (as such term is defined in the applicable Loan Document) under any other Loan Document; or

        (f)    any default under, or termination of, the Master Lease.

        Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, at the option of Agent, the Indebtedness shall become immediately due and payable without notice to Grantor and Agent shall be entitled to all of the rights and remedies provided in the Loan Documents or at law or in equity. Each remedy provided in the Loan Documents is distinct and cumulative to all other rights or remedies under the Loan Documents or afforded by law or equity, and may be exercised concurrently, independently, or successively, in any order whatsoever.

        12.    Enforcement.    In an Event of Default exits, Lender may elect to foreclose the interest of Borrower in the Land and other Property pursuant to applicable law. Commencement of such an action shall be deemed a declaration by Lender that any and all of the Indebtedness and Obligations are to be due and payable immediately. Upon the election of Lender to effect a trustee's sale of the Land or



other Property in lieu of judicial foreclosure, then Lender may instruct Trustee to commence such sale and consummate such sale in the following manner:

        (a)   Lender shall initiate such action by delivery to Trustee of a written declaration of the Event of Default and demand for sale and of written notice of the Event of Default and of election to cause to be sold the Land and any other Property designated by Lender, which notice Trustee shall cause to be duly filed for record in case of foreclosure by exercise of the power of sale herein. Should Lender elect to foreclose by exercise of the power of sale herein, Lender shall also deposit with Trustee this Deed of Trust and the Note and such receipts and evidence of expenditures made and secured hereby as Trustee may require, and notice of sale having been given as then required by law and after lapse of such time as may then be required by law after recordation of such notice of the Event of Default, Trustee, without demand on Borrower, shall sell the Land and any other Property designated by Lender at time and place of sale fixed by it in such notice of sale as Lender may direct, either as a whole or in separate parcels, as Lender may determine, at public auction to the highest bidder for cash in lawful money of the United States, payable at time of sale. Lender shall have the right to direct the order in which separate parcels shall be sold and Borrower shall have no right to direct the order in which separate parcels shall be sold. Trustee may postpone sale of all or any portion of the Land and other Property by public announcement at such time and place of sale, and from time to time thereafter may postpone such sale by public announcement at the time fixed by the preceding postponement. Any person, including Borrower, Trustee or Lender, may purchase at such sale. Lender may proceed as to the Property constituting personal property in accordance with Lender's rights and remedies in respect to the Land or sell the Property constituting personal property separately and without regard to the remainder of the Land in accordance with Lender's rights and remedies provided by the Uniform Commercial Code as well as other rights and remedies available at law or in equity. Borrower waives all rights to direct the order in which any of the Land and other Property shall be sold in the event of any sale under this Deed of Trust, and also any right to have any of the Land and other Property marshalled upon any sale.

        (b)   Lender, from time to time before Trustee's sale pursuant to this Section 12 may rescind any notice of breach or the Event of Default and of election to cause to be sold the Land or other Property by executing and delivering to Trustee a written notice of such rescission, which notice, when recorded, shall also constitute a cancellation of any prior declaration of an Event of Default and demand for sale. The exercise by Lender of such right of rescission shall not constitute a waiver of any breach or Event of Default then existing or subsequently occurring or impair the right of Lender to execute and deliver to Trustee, as above provided, other declarations of an Event of Default and demand for sale, and notices of breach or Event of Default, the obligations hereof, nor otherwise affect any provisions, covenant or condition of the Note and/or of this Deed of Trust or any of the rights, obligations or remedies of the parties thereunder or hereunder.

        (c)   Trustee shall deliver to the purchaser at any such trustee's sale its deed, without warranty, which shall convey to the purchaser the interest in the Land and other Property then sold which Borrower has or has the power to convey at the time of the execution of this Deed of Trust, and such as it may have acquired hereafter. The Trustee's deed shall recite the facts showing that the sale was conducted in compliance with all the requirements of law and of this Deed of Trust, which recital shall be prima facie evidence of such compliance and conclusive evidence thereof in favor of bona fide purchasers and encumbrances for value.

        (d)   In the case of a sale under this Deed of Trust, the said Land and other Property, real, personal and mixed, may be sold in one parcel or more than one parcel.

        (e)   Upon any sale made under or by virtue of this Section (whether made under the power of sale herein granted or under or by virtue of judicial proceedings or of a judgment or decree of foreclosure and sale) (any such sale or disposition, a "Foreclosure Sale;" and any two or more, "Foreclosure Sales"), Lender may bid for and acquire the Land and other Property, or any part thereof, and in lieu of paying cash therefore may make settlement for the purchase price by crediting upon the Indebtedness and Obligations the net sale price after deducting therefrom the expenses of the



sale and the costs of the action and any other sums which Lender is authorized to deduct under this Deed of Trust.

        (f)    In the event of any Foreclosure Sale, the entire Indebtedness and Obligations, if not previously due and payable, immediately thereupon shall, anything in the Note or in the Deed of Trust to the contrary notwithstanding, become due and payable.

        (g)   In the Event of Default exists, Lender may enter upon the Land, take possession of the Property, or any part thereof, with or, to the extent permitted by law, without judicial process, and, in connection therewith, without any responsibility or liability on the part of Lender, take possession of any property located on or in the Property which is not a part of the Property and hold or store such property at Borrower's expense and Lender may exercise any or all of the remedies available to a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code including the following: Lender may require Borrower to assemble the personal property constituting part of the Property, and make such available to Lender at a place to be designated by Lender which is reasonably convenient to Borrower and Lender. After notification, if any, as hereafter provided in this subsection, Lender may sell, lease, or otherwise dispose of (herein, a "disposition"), at the office of Lender, or on the Land, or elsewhere, as chosen by Lender, all or any part of said personal property in its then condition or following any commercially reasonable preparation or processing, and each disposition may be as a unit or in parcels, by pubic or private proceedings, and by way of one or more contracts, and, at any disposition, it shall not be necessary to have present or exhibit said personal property, or any part thereof being sold. The disposition of any part of said personal property shall not exhaust Lender's power of disposition, but dispositions may be made from time to time until the Indebtedness and Obligations are paid and performed in full. Reasonable notification of the time and place of any public disposition pursuant to this subsection, or reasonable notification of the time after which any private disposition is to be made pursuant to this subsection, shall be sent to Borrower and to any other person entitled to receive notice under the Uniform Commercial Code. It is agreed that notice sent or given not less than five (5) calendar days prior to the taking of the action to which the notice relates, is reasonable notification for the purposes of this subsection.

        (h)   If an Event of Default exists, Lender may bring an action in a court of competent jurisdiction to foreclose this instrument or to enforce any of the covenants hereof.

        (i)    Lender shall, as a matter of right, without notice and without giving bond to Borrower or anyone claiming by, under or through Borrower, and without regard for the solvency or insolvency of Borrower or the then value of the Property, pursuant to California Civil Code Section 2929.5 or other applicable law, be entitled to have a receiver appointed for all or any part of the Property and the Rents, and the proceeds, issues and profits thereof, with the rights and powers referenced below and such other rights and powers as the court making such appointment shall confer, and Borrower hereby consents to the appointment of such receiver and shall not oppose any such appointment. Such receiver shall have all powers and duties prescribed by applicable law, all other powers which are necessary or usual in such cases for the protection, possession, control, management and operation of the Property, and such rights and powers as Lender would have, upon entering and taking possession of the Property under subsection (c) below. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Lender shall have the right to appoint a receiver in order to enforce Lender's rights under Section 2929.5 of the California Civil Code.

        13.    Other Remedies.    Lender may exercise all rights and remedies contained in any other instrument, document, agreement or other writing heretofore, concurrently or in the future executed by Borrower or any other person or entity in favor of Lender in connection with the Obligations or any part thereof, without prejudice to the right of Lender thereafter to enforce any appropriate remedy against Borrower. Lender shall have the right to pursue all remedies afforded to a beneficiary under a deed of trust under applicable law, and shall have the benefit of all of the provisions of such applicable law, including all amendments thereto which may become effective from time to time after the date hereof.



        (a)   CCP Sections 726.5 and 736. Without limiting the foregoing, Lender may (i) in accordance with California Code of Civil Procedure Section 736, as such Section may be amended from time to time, recover any costs, expenses or liabilities, including without limitation attorneys' fees, incurred by Lender and arising from any breach of any covenant, warranty or agreement pertaining to any environmental requirements, or any order, consent decree or settlement relating to the cleanup of toxic or hazardous waste or waste products, or any other "environmental provision" (as defined in such Section 736) relating to the Land or other Property or any portion thereof, and (ii) in accordance with California Code of Civil Procedure Section 726.5, as such Section may be amended from time to time, waive the security of the Deed of Trust as to any parcel of the Land and other Property that is "environmentally impaired" or is an "affected parcel" (as such terms are defined in such Section), and thereafter exercise against Borrower, to the extent permitted by such Section 726.5, the rights and remedies of an unsecured creditor, including reduction of Lender's claim against Borrower to judgment, and any other rights and remedies permitted by law,

        (b)   Action for Environmental Claims. In accordance with, and subject to limitations of, California Code of Civil Procedure Section 736, Lender may seek a judgment that Borrower has breached its covenants, representations and/or warranties with respect to the environmental matters contained in this Deed of Trust, the Indemnity Agreements and the Loan Agreement (the "Environmental Provisions"), and may commence and maintain an action or actions in any court of competent jurisdiction for enforcement of the Environmental Provisions and/or recovery of any all costs, damages, expenses, fees, penalties, fines, judgments, indemnification payments to third parties, and other out-of-pocket costs or expenses (including, without limitation, court costs, consultants' fees and attorneys' fees, whether incurred in litigation or not and whether before or after judgment), incurred or advanced by Lender pursuant to the Environmental Provisions (collectively, the "Environmental Costs"), excluding, however, any Environmental Costs not permitted to be recovered pursuant to Section 736 of the California Code of Civil Procedure. Environmental Costs that are not permitted to be recovered pursuant to Section 736 may be referred to hereinafter as the "Unsecured Environmental Costs," and Environmental Costs other than the Unsecured Environmental Costs may be referred to hereinafter as the "Secured Environmental Costs." Any Unsecured Environmental Costs shall not be secured by this Deed of Trust; however, nothing herein shall prevent Lender from recovering any Unsecured Environmental Costs pursuant to the Environmental Obligations set forth in the Loan Agreement, to the extent they are recoverable in accordance with Loan Agreement. All Secured Environmental Costs incurred by Lender shall bear interest at the default rate provided under the Note. All Secured Environmental Costs together with interest thereon at the rate then in effect under the Note shall be secured by this Deed of Trust and shall enjoy the same priority as the original principal amount of the Note. Borrower acknowledges and agrees that notwithstanding any term or provision contained in this Deed of Trust or in the other Loan Documents, Environmental Costs shall be exceptions to any nonrecourse or exculpatory provision, if any, and Borrower shall be fully and personally liable for Environmental Costs. Such liability shall not be limited to the original principal amount of the obligations secured by this Deed of Trust. Borrower's obligations hereunder shall survive foreclosure, deed in lieu of foreclosure, release, reconveyance or any other transfer of the Property or this Deed of Trust. For the purposes of any action brought under this subparagraph, Borrower hereby waives the defense of laches and any applicable statute of limitations.

        14.    Expenditures and Expenses.    In any action to foreclose the lien hereof or otherwise enforce Trustee's, Agent's or Lender's rights and remedies hereunder, there shall be allowed and included as additional Indebtedness all costs and expenses which may be paid or incurred by or on behalf of Trustee, Agent or Lender, including without limitation, the costs of collection, enforcement, retaining, holding, preparing for disposition, processing and disposing of the Personal Property, appraiser's fees, outlays for documentary and expert evidence, stenographic changes, publication costs and costs (which may be estimated as the items to be expended after the entry of the decree) of procuring all such abstracts of title, title searches and examination, UCC record searches, title insurance policies, and similar data and assurance with respect to title as Agent may deem to be reasonably necessary either to prosecute any foreclosure action or to evidence to the bidder at any sale pursuant thereto the true condition of the title to or the value of the Property. All such costs and expenses, together with such



other costs and expenses as may be incurred by Trustee, Agent or Lender in the protection of the Property, maintenance of the lien of this Deed of Trust or in any workout or restructuring of the Loan including, attorneys' fees and costs in any negotiation, litigation or other proceeding affecting this Deed of Trust, the Note, the other Loan Documents, the Property or the Personal Property, including probate, appellate, and bankruptcy proceedings and any post judgment proceedings to collect or enforce any judgment or order relating to this Deed of Trust or the other Loan Documents or in preparation for the commencement or defense of any action or proceeding or threatened action or proceeding, and further including, attorneys' fees and costs in any negotiation, litigation or other proceeding, including costs and expenses in connection with obtaining any court order or the appointment of a receiver to enforce Agent's rights pursuant to Section 564 of the California Code of Civil Procedure and/or Section 2929.5 of the California Civil Code, shall be immediately due and payable to Agent, with interest thereon at the Default Rate, and shall be secured by this Deed of Trust.

        15.    Application of Proceeds of Foreclosure Sale.    Unless otherwise required by applicable law, the proceeds of any foreclosure sale of the Property shall be distributed and applied in the order of priority set forth in the Note with the excess, if any, being applied, to any party entitled thereto as their rights may appear. Only with respect to the Personal Property and only to the extent required by law, shall it be necessary for Agent to account for any surplus to Grantor. To the extent permitted by applicable law, Grantor waives all claims, damages, and demands against Agent arising out of the disposition, repossession or retention of the Property.

        16.    Future Advances.    This Deed of Trust is given to secure not only the existing Indebtedness and Obligations, but also future advances (whether such advances are obligatory or are made at the option of Lender or Agent, or otherwise) made by Agent or Lender under the Loan Agreement, the Note, this Deed of Trust or any of the other Loan Documents, to the same extent as if such future advances were made on the date of the execution of this Deed of Trust. It is the intent hereof to secure payment of the Indebtedness whether the entire amount shall have been advanced to Borrower Parties at the date hereof, or at a later date, and to secure any other amount or amounts that may be added to the Indebtedness or Obligations. The total amount of the Indebtedness and Obligations secured hereby may decrease or increase from time to time, but the total unpaid balance so secured at any one time shall not exceed five (5) times the aggregate face amount of the Note in principal plus interest thereon and any disbursements made for the payment of taxes, levies, or insurance on the Property with interest thereon. This Deed of Trust shall secure any and all additional or further monies which may be advanced by Lender or Agent to Borrower Parties after the date hereof, which future advances of money, if made, may be evidenced by a note or notes executed by one or more Borrower Parties to Lender and Agent bearing such rate of interest and with such maturities as shall be determined from time to time. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed an obligation on the part of Lender or Agent to make any future advances.

        17.    Waiver of Statute of Limitations.    Grantor hereby waives the right to assert any statute of limitations as a bar to the enforcement of the lien created by any of the Loan Documents or to any action brought to enforce the Note or any other obligation secured by any of the Loan Documents.

        18.    Waiver of Homestead and Redemption; Other Waivers and Agreements.    

        (a)   Grantor hereby waives all right of homestead exemption in the Property. Grantor hereby waives all right of redemption on behalf of Grantor and on behalf of all other persons acquiring any interest or title in the Property subsequent to the date of this Deed of Trust, except decree or judgment creditors of Grantor.

        (b)   In the event Grantor is deemed to have signed this Deed of Trust as a surety or accommodation party, or to have subjected its property to this Deed of Trust to secure the indebtedness of another, to the extent permitted by applicable law, Grantor hereby expressly waives the benefits of any statutory provision limiting the liability of a surety, and any defense arising by reason of any disability or other defense of Grantor or by reason of the cessation from any cause whatsoever of the liability of Grantor. Without limiting the foregoing, Grantor hereby waives any and all benefits and defenses under California Civil Code Section 2810 and agrees that by doing so Grantor shall be liable



even if such other party had no liability at the time of execution of the Note or any other Loan Document, or thereafter ceases to be liable. Grantor hereby waives any and all benefits and defenses under California Civil Code Section 2809 and agrees that by doing so Grantor's liability may be larger in amount and more burdensome than that of such other party, Grantor waives all rights to require Agent to pursue any other remedy it may have against such other party, or any other Borrower Party, including any and all benefits under California Civil Code Section 2845, 2849 and 2850. Grantor further waives any rights, defenses and benefits that may be derived from Sections 2787 to 2855, inclusive, of the California Civil Code or comparable provisions of the laws of any other jurisdiction and further waives all other suretyship defenses Grantor would otherwise have under the laws of California or any other jurisdiction.

        (c)   Upon a default by Borrower Parties, Agent in its sole discretion, without prior notice to or consent of Grantor (except such notice or consent as is expressly required under the Loan Documents), may elect to: (1) foreclose either judicially or nonjudicially against any real or personal property security it may hold for the Loan; (ii) accept a transfer of any such security in lieu of foreclosure; (iii) compromise or adjust the Loan or any part of it or make any other accommodation with Borrower Parties; or (iv) exercise any other remedy against Borrower Parties or any security. No such action by Agent shall release or limit the liability of Grantor, who shall remain liable under the Loan Documents after the action, even if the effect of the action is to deprive Grantor of any subrogation rights, rights of indemnity, or other rights to collect reimbursement from the other Borrower Parties for any sums paid to Agent, whether contractual or arising by operation of law or otherwise. Grantor expressly agrees that under no circumstances shall they be deemed to have any right, title, interest or claim in or to any real or personal property to be held by Agent or any third party after any foreclosure or transfer in lieu of foreclosure of any security for the Loan.

        (d)   Regardless of whether Grantor may have made any payments to Agent, Grantor hereby waives: (i) all rights of subrogation, indemnification, contribution and any other rights to collect reimbursement from the other Borrower Parties or any other party for any sums paid to Agent, whether contractual or arising by operation of law (including the United States Bankruptcy Code or any successor or similar statute) or otherwise; (ii) all rights to enforce any remedy that Agent may have against the other Borrower Parties; and (iii) all rights to participate in any security now or later to be held by Agent for the Loan. The waivers given in this paragraph shall be effective until the Loan has been paid and performed in full.

        (e)   Grantor waives all rights and defenses arising out of an election of remedies by Agent, even though that election of remedies, such as a nonjudicial foreclosure with respect to security for a guarantied obligation, has destroyed Grantor's rights of subrogation and reimbursement against the other Borrower Parties by operation of Section 580d of the California Code of Civil Procedure or otherwise. Grantor further waives any right to a fair value bearing under California Code of Civil Procedure Section 580a, or any other similar law, to determine the size of any deficiency owing (for which any Grantor would be liable hereunder) following a non judicial foreclosure sale.

        (f)    Without limiting the foregoing or anything else contained in this Deed of Trust, Grantor waives all rights and defenses that Grantor may have because the Loan is secured by real property. This mew, among other things:

              (i)  That Leer may collect from Grantor without first foreclosing on any real or personal property collateral pledged by any other Borrower Party, and

             (ii)  If Agent forecloses on any real property collateral pledged by any Borrower Party: (x) the amount of the Loan may be reduced only by the price for which that collateral is sold at tie foreclosure sale, even if the collateral is worth more than the sale price; and (y) Lender may collect from Grantor even if Agent, by foreclosing on the real property collateral, has destroyed any right Grantor may have to collect from any other Borrower Patty.

        This subsection (f) is an unconditional and irrevocable waiver of any rights and defenses Grantor may have because the Loan is secured by real property. These rights and defenses include, but are not


limited to, any rights or defenses based upon Sections 580a, 580b, 580d, or 726 of the California Code of Civil Procedure.

        (g)   Grantor waives all rights and defenses arising out of any failure of the Agent or Lender to disclose to the Grantor any information relating to the financial condition, operations, properties or prospects of any other Borrower Party now or in the future known to the Agent or Lender (tutor waiving any duty on the part of the Agent or Lender to disclose such information).

        (h)   Grantor further waives and agrees not to assert: (i) any right to require Agent to proceed against any guar, to proceed against or exhaust any other security for the Indebtedness and Obligations secured hereby, to pursue any other remedy available to Agent, or to pursue any remedy in any particular order or manner; (ii) the benefits of any legal or equitable doctrine or principle of marshalling; (iii) demand, diligence, presentment for payment, protest and demand, and notice of extension, dishonor, protest, demand and nonpayment, relating to the indebtedness secured hereby; and (iv) any benefit of, and any right to participate in, any other security now or hereafter held by Agent.
