Events of Default Each of the following conditions is an event of default: 1. if Debtor defaults in timely payment or performance of any obligation, covenant, or liability in any written agreement between Debtor and Secured Party or in any other transaction secured by this agreement; 2. if any warranty, covenant, or representation made to Secured Party by or on behalf of Debtor proves to have been false in any material respect when made; 3. if a receiver is appointed for Debtor or any of the collateral; 4. if the collateral is assigned for the benefit of creditors or, to the extent permitted by law, if bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings commence against or by any of these parties: Debtor; any partnership of which Debtor is a general partner; and any maker, drawer, acceptor, endorser, guarantor, surety, accommodation party, or other person liable on or for any part of the obligation; 5. if any financing statement regarding the collateral but not related to this security interest and not favoring Secured Party is filed; 6. if any lien attaches to any of the collateral; and 7. if any of the collateral is lost, stolen, damaged, or destroyed, unless it is promptly replaced with collateral of like quality or restored to its former condition. Remedies of Secured Party on Default During the existence of any event of default, Secured Party may declare the unpaid principal and earned interest of the obligation immediately due in whole or part, enforce the obligation, and exercise any rights and remedies granted by chapter 9 of the Texas Business and Commerce Code or by this agreement, including the following: 1. require Debtor to deliver to Secured Party all books and records relating to the collateral; 2. require Debtor to assemble the collateral and make it available to Secured Party at a place reasonably convenient to both parties; 3. take possession of any of the collateral and for this purpose enter any premises where it is located if this can be done without breach of the peace; 4. sell, lease, or otherwise dispose of any of the collateral in accord with the rights, remedies, and duties of a secured party under chapters 2 and 9 of the Texas Business and Commerce Code after giving notice as required by those chapters; unless the collateral threatens to decline speedily in value, is perishable, or would typically be sold on a recognized market, Secured Party will give Debtor reasonable notice of any public sale of the collateral or of a time after which it may be otherwise disposed of without further notice to Debtor; in this event, notice will be deemed reasonable if it is mailed, postage prepaid, to Debtor at the address specified in this agreement at least ten days before any public sale or ten days before the time when the collateral may be otherwise disposed of without further notice to Debtor; 5. surrender any insurance policies covering the collateral and receive the unearned premium with proceeds applied against the loan; 6. apply any proceeds from disposition of the collateral after default in the manner specified in chapter 9 of the Texas Business and Commerce Code, including payment of Secured Party's reasonable attorney's fees and court expenses; and 7. if disposition of the collateral leaves the obligation unsatisfied, collect the deficiency from Debtor. General Provisions 1. Parties Bound. Secured Party's rights under this agreement shall inure to the benefit of its successors and assigns. Assignment of any part of the obligation and delivery by Secured Party of any part of the collateral will fully discharge Secured Party from responsibility for that part of the collateral. If Debtor is more than one, all their representations, warranties, and agreements are joint and several. Debtor's obligations under this agreement shall bind Debtor's personal representatives, successors, and assigns. 2. Waiver. Neither delay in exercise nor partial exercise of any of Secured Party's remedies or rights shall waive further exercise of those remedies or rights. Secured Party's failure to exercise remedies or rights does not waive subsequent exercise of those remedies or rights. Secured Party's waiver of any default does not waive further default. Secured Party's waiver of any right in this agreement or of any default is binding only if it is in writing. Secured Party may allow remedy for any default without waiving it. 3. Reimbursement. If Debtor fails to perform any of Debtor's obligations, Secured Party may perform those obligations and be, reimbursed by Debtor on demand at the place where the note is payable for any sums so paid, including attorney's fees and other legal expenses, plus interest on those sums from the dates of payment at the rate stated in the note for matured, unpaid amounts. The sum to be reimbursed shall be secured by this security agreement. 4. Interest Rate. Interest included in the obligation shall not exceed the maximum amount of nonusurious interest that may be contracted for, taken, reserved, charged, or received under law; any interest in excess of that maximum amount shall be credited to the principal of the obligation or, if that has been paid, refunded. On any acceleration or required or permitted prepayment of the obligation, any such excess shall be canceled automatically as of the acceleration or prepayment or, if already paid, credited on the principal amount of the obligation or, if the principal amount has been paid, refunded. This provision overrides other provisions in this and all other instruments concerning the obligation. 5. Modifications.

General Provisions 1. If any of the property is sold under this deed of trust, Grantor shall immediately surrender possession to the purchaser. If Grantor fails to do so, Grantor shall become a tenant at sufferance of the purchaser, subject to an action for forcible detainer. 2. Recitals in any Trustee's deed conveying the property will be presumed to be true. 3. Proceeding under this deed of trust, filing suit for foreclosure, or pursuing any other remedy will not constitute an election of remedies. 4. This lien shall remain superior to liens later created even if the time of payment of all or part of the note is extended or part of the property is released. 5. If any portion of the note cannot be lawfully secured by this deed of trust, payments shall be applied first to discharge that portion. 6. Grantor assigns to Beneficiary all sums payable to or received by Grantor from condemnation of all or part of the property, from private sale in lieu of condemnation, and from damages caused by public works or construction on or near the property. After deducting any expenses incurred, including attorney's fees, Beneficiary may release any remaining sums to Grantor or apply such sums to reduce the note. Beneficiary shall not be liable for failure to collect or to exercise diligence in collecting any such sums. -3- 7. Grantor assigns to Beneficiary absolutely, not only as collateral, all present and future rent and other income and receipts from the property. Leases are not assigned. Grantor warrants the validity and enforceability of the assignment. Grantor may as Beneficiary's licensee collect rent and other income and receipts as long as Grantor is not in default under the note or this deed of trust. Grantor will apply all rent and other income and receipts to payment of the note and performance of this deed of trust, but if the rent and other income and receipts exceed the amount due under the note and deed of trust, Grantor may retain the excess. If Grantor defaults in payment of the note or performance of this deed of trust, Beneficiary may terminate Grantor's license to collect and then as Grantor's agent may rent the property if it is vacant and collect all rent and other income and receipts. Beneficiary neither has nor assumes any obligations as lessor or landlord with respect to any occupant of the property. Beneficiary may exercise Beneficiary's rights and remedies under this paragraph without taking possession of the property. Beneficiary shall apply all rent and other income and receipts collected under this paragraph first to expenses incurred in exercising Beneficiary's rights and remedies and then to Grantor's obligations under the note and this deed of trust in the order determined by Beneficiary. Beneficiary is not required to act under this paragraph, and acting under this paragraph does not waive any of Beneficiary's other rights or remedies. If Grantor becomes a voluntary or involuntary bankrupt, Beneficiary's filing a proof of claim in bankruptcy will be tantamount to the appointment of a receiver under Texas law. 8. Interest on the debt secured by this deed of trust shall not exceed the maximum amount of nonusurious interest that may be contracted for, taken, reserved, charged, or received under law; any interest in excess of that maximum amount shall be credited on the principal of the debt or, if that has been paid, refunded. On any acceleration or required or permitted prepayment, any such excess shall be canceled automatically as of the acceleration or prepayment or, if already paid, credited on the principal of the debt or, if the principal of the debt has been paid, refunded. This provision overrides other provisions in this and all other instruments concerning the debt. 9. When the context requires, singular nouns and pronouns include the plural. 10. The term note includes all sums secured by this deed of trust. 11. This deed of trust shall bind, inure to the benefit of, and be exercised by successors in interest of all parties. 12. If Grantor and Maker are not the same person, the term Grantor shall include Maker. 13. Grantor represents that this deed of trust and the note are given for the following purposes: Construction of warehouse facility and related infrastructure for use in Grantor's business.
