ASSIGNMENT OF PRODUCTION PROCEEDS, RENTS AND LEASEHOLD INTERESTS

Section 2.1 Assignment of Production Proceeds. As further security for the payment and performance of the Obligations, the Trustor hereby absolutely and unconditionally assigns and transfers to the Beneficiary, effective upon and during the continuance of an Event of Default, all Minerals (and the Proceeds therefrom) which are produced, extracted or severed from or attributable to the Lands and, effective automatically upon and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Trustor hereby transfers, assigns, warrants and conveys to the Beneficiary all Minerals (and the Proceeds therefrom) which are produced, extracted or severed from or attributable to the Lands. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, all persons producing, purchasing or receiving such Minerals or the Proceeds therefrom are authorized and directed to treat the Beneficiary as the person entitled in the Trustor’s place and stead to receive the same; and further, those persons will be fully protected in so treating the Beneficiary and will be under no obligation to see to the application by Beneficiary of any Proceeds received by it. The Trustor agrees that, if, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, any Proceeds from such Minerals are paid to the Trustor, such proceeds shall constitute trust funds in the hands of the Trustor, shall be segregated from all other funds of the Trustor and separately held by the Trustor, and shall be forthwith paid over by the Trustor to the Beneficiary. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Trustor shall, if and when requested by the Beneficiary, execute and file with any production purchaser a transfer order or other instrument declaring the Beneficiary to be entitled to the Proceeds of severed Minerals and instructing such purchaser to pay such Proceeds to the Beneficiary. After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, should any purchaser fail to make payment promptly to the Beneficiary of the proceeds derived from the sale thereof, the Beneficiary shall have the right, subject only to any contractual rights of such purchaser or any operator, to designate another purchaser to purchase and take such Products, without liability of any kind on the Beneficiary in making such selection so long as ordinary care is used in respect thereof.

Section 2.2 Assignment of Rents and Leasehold Interests. As further security for the payment and performance of the Obligations, the Trustor hereby absolutely and unconditionally assigns and transfers to Trustee, for the benefit of the Beneficiary, all the leases, income, rent, issues, deposits, profits and proceeds of the Lands and the Improvements to which the Trustor may be entitled, whether now due or to become due, and hereby gives to and confers upon the Trustee, on the occurrence of an Event of Default, the right, power and authority to collect such income, rents, issues, deposits, profits and proceeds of the Lands and the Improvements to which the Trustor may be entitled, whether now due, past due or to become due. This assignment constitutes an irrevocable direction and authorization of all tenants, account payors and other

D-8

Persons, under any lease, contract, agreement or other Instrument to pay all income, rent, issues, deposits, profits and proceeds into an account specified by the Trustee upon demand and without further consent or other action by the Trustor. This assignment of rents and leasehold interests shall be governed by NRS Sections 107A.010 through 107A.370.

Section 2.3 Power-of-Attorney; Collection. The Trustor hereby irrevocably appoints the Trustee its true and lawful attorney, at the option of the Trustee upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to demand, receive and enforce payment, to give receipts, releases, and satisfactions, and to sue, either in the name of the Trustor or in the name of the Trustee, for all such income, rents, issues, deposits, profits and proceeds and apply the same to the Obligations secured hereby. It is understood and agreed that neither the foregoing assignments in Sections 2.1 and 2.2 nor the exercise by the Trustee of any of its rights or remedies under this Article 2 or otherwise hereunder shall be deemed to make the Trustee a “mortgagee-in-possession” or otherwise responsible or liable in any manner with respect to the Collateral or the use, occupancy, enjoyment, or operation of all or any portion thereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Trustor shall have a license to collect all Proceeds from the Collateral as trustee for the benefit of the Trustee and shall apply such Proceeds in the following order of priority: (a) first, to the payment of the Obligations then due and payable, and (b) second, to such other obligations or matters as Trustor may reasonably determine. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, such license shall be deemed automatically revoked and any income, rents, issues, deposits, profits and proceeds received thereafter by the Trustor shall be delivered in kind to the Trustee. The Trustor hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints the Trustee its true and lawful attorney-in-fact to enforce in the Trustor’s name or in the Beneficiary’s name or otherwise all rights of the Trustor and to do any and all things necessary and proper to carry out and implement the purposes hereof, which Trustee may exercise at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default.

Section 2.4 Trustor’s Payment Duties. Nothing contained herein will limit the Trustor’s duty to make payment on the Obligations when the Proceeds received pursuant to this Article 2 are insufficient to pay the costs, interest, principal and any other portion of the Obligations then owing, and the receipt of Proceeds pursuant hereto will be in addition to all other security now or hereafter existing to secure payment of the Obligations.

Section 2.5 Liability of Trustee and Beneficiary. Neither the Trustee nor the Beneficiary has any obligation to enforce collection of any of the Proceeds or other amounts described in this Article 2, and the Trustee and the Beneficiary are hereby released from all liability and responsibility in connection therewith, except the responsibility to account to Trustor for Proceeds and other amounts actually received.

Section 2.6 Indemnification. The Trustor agrees to indemnify and save and hold harmless the Trustee, the Beneficiary, their respective successors and affiliates and their respective directors, partners, managers, principals, officers, employees, agents, consultants and representatives (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”) from and against all claims, actions, liabilities, losses, judgments, reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses and other charges of any description whatsoever (all of which are hereafter referred to in this Section 2.6 as “Claims”) made against or sustained or incurred by any such Indemnified Party as a consequence of the

D-9

assertion, either before or after the payment in full of the Obligations, that the Beneficiary received Minerals, Proceeds or rents, profits, income or proceeds of Collateral pursuant to this instrument, except to the extent any Claims arise out of any Indemnified Party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Indemnified Parties have the right to employ attorneys and to defend against any Claims and unless furnished with satisfactory indemnity, after notice to the Trustor, the Indemnified Parties will have the right to pay or compromise and adjust all Claims in its sole reasonable discretion. The Trustor shall indemnify and pay to the Indemnified Parties all amounts paid by any Indemnified Party in compromise or adjustment of any of the Claims or amounts adjudged against any Indemnified Party in respect of any of the Claims. The liabilities of Trustor as set forth in this Section 2.6 will constitute Obligations and will survive the termination of this instrument.

BENEFICIARY’S RIGHTS AS TO PERSONALTY AND FIXTURE COLLATERAL UPON DEFAULT

Section 7.1 Personalty Collateral. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, or at any time thereafter during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Beneficiary may, without notice to the Trustor, exercise its rights to declare all of the Obligations to be immediately due and payable, in which case the Beneficiary will have all rights and remedies granted by law, and particularly by the UCC, including, but not limited to, the right to take possession of any and all Collateral constituting personal property (the “Personalty Collateral”), and for this purpose the Beneficiary may enter upon any premises on which any or all of the Personalty Collateral is situated and take possession of and operate the Personalty Collateral or remove it therefrom. The Beneficiary may require the Trustor to assemble the Personalty Collateral and make it available to the Beneficiary or the Trustee at a place to be designated by Beneficiary which is reasonably convenient to all parties. Unless the Personalty Collateral is perishable or threatens to decline speedily in value or is of a type customarily sold on a recognized market, the Beneficiary will give the Trustor reasonable notice of the time and place of any public sale or of the time after which any private sale or other disposition of the Personalty Collateral is to be made. This requirement of sending reasonable notice will be met if the notice is mailed, postage prepaid, to the Trustor at the address designated above at least ten (10) days before the time of the sale or disposition.

Section 7.2 Sale with Realty Collateral. In the event of foreclosure, whether judicial or non-judicial, at the Beneficiary’s option it may proceed under the Uniform Commercial Code as to the Personalty Collateral or it may proceed as to both Personalty Collateral and Collateral constituting real property in accordance with its rights and remedies in respect of the Collateral constituting real property.

Section 7.3 Private Sale. If the Beneficiary in good faith believes that any state or federal law prohibits or restricts the customary manner of sale or distribution of any of the Personalty Collateral, or if the Beneficiary determines that there is any other restraint or restriction limiting the timely sale or distribution of any such property in accordance with the sell such property privately or in any other manner it deems advisable at such price or prices as it determines in its sole discretion and without any liability whatsoever to the Trustor in connection therewith. The Trustor recognizes and agrees that such prohibition or restriction may cause such

D-21

property to have less value than it otherwise would have and that, consequently, such sale or disposition by the Beneficiary may result in a lower sales price than if the sale were otherwise held.

Section 9.4 Indebtedness of Obligations Absolute. Nothing herein contained shall be construed as limiting the Beneficiary to the collection of any indebtedness of the Trustor to the Beneficiary only out of the income, revenue, rents, issues and profits from the Collateral or as obligating the Beneficiary to delay or withhold action upon any default which may be occasioned by failure of such income or revenue to be sufficient to retire the principal or interest when due on the indebtedness secured hereby. It is expressly understood between the Beneficiary and the Trustor that any indebtedness of the Trustor to the Beneficiary secured hereby shall constitute an absolute, unconditional obligation of the Trustor to pay as provided herein or therein in accordance with the terms of the instrument evidencing such indebtedness in the amount therein specified at the maturity date or at the respective maturity dates of the installments thereof, whether by acceleration or otherwise.

Section 9.5 Defense of Claims.

The Trustee or the Beneficiary may resort first to other security or any part thereof, or first to the security herein given or any part thereof, or from time to time to either or both, even to the partial or complete abandonment of either security, and such action will not be a waiver of any rights conferred by this instrument.

Section 9.8 Successor Trustees. The Trustee may resign in writing addressed to Beneficiary or be removed at any time with or without cause by an instrument in writing duly executed by Beneficiary. In case of the resignation or removal of the Trustee, a successor Trustee may be appointed by Beneficiary by instrument of substitution complying with any applicable requirements of law, and in the absence of any such requirement, without other formality than an appointment and designation in writing.

The intention of the parties being to conform strictly to applicable usury laws now in force, the interest on the principal amount of the Credit Agreement and the interest on other amounts due under and/or secured by this instrument shall be held to be subject to reduction to the amount allowed under said applicable usury laws as now or hereafter construed by the courts having jurisdiction, and any excess interest paid shall be credited to Trustor.

No waiver, delay, omission, or forbearance by Beneficiary of any right, power or remedy hereunder or under applicable law on any occasion will act as, or shall be deemed to be, a bar to the exercise of any right, power or remedy on any subsequent occasion or shall otherwise exhaust or impair any such right, power or remedy or shall be deemed to waive any Event of Default or to constitute acquiescence. Every right, power and remedy given to Trustee or Beneficiary may be exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient by Trustee or Beneficiary.

(b) No failure on the part of Beneficiary to exercise, no course of dealing with respect to, and no delay on the part of Beneficiary in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power, privilege or remedy hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power, privilege or remedy.

(c) In the event that Beneficiary shall have instituted any proceeding to enforce any right, power, privilege or remedy under this Deed of Trust or any other Credit Document by foreclosure, sale, entry or otherwise, and such proceeding shall have been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, then and in every such case, the Trustor and
