Borrower and Lender have entered into a Loan Agreement, dated as of the date hereof (as amended, modified, restated, consolidated or supplemented from time to time, the Loan Agreement) pursuant to which Lender is making a secured loan to Borrower in the maximum principal amount of up to FIFTY NINE MILLION FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND AND 00/100 DOLLARS ($59,500,000.00) or so much thereof as may be advanced from time to time (the Loan). Capitalized terms used herein without definition are used as defined in the Loan Agreement.

TO HAVE AND TO HOLD the Property unto and to the use and benefit of Lender and its successors and assigns, forever;
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, these presents are upon the express condition that, if Borrower shall well and truly pay to Lender the Debt at the time and in the manner provided in the Loan Documents and shall well and truly abide by and comply with each and every covenant and condition set forth in the Loan Documents in a timely manner, these presents and the estate hereby granted shall cease, terminate and be void;
AND Borrower represents and warrants to and covenants and agrees with Lender as follows:
PART I - GENERAL PROVISIONS
1. Payment of Debt and Incorporation of Covenants Conditions and Agreements. Borrower shall pay the Debt at the time and in the manner provided in the Loan Documents. All the covenants, conditions and agreements contained in the Loan Documents are hereby made a part of this Security Instrument to the same extent and with the same force as if fully set forth herein. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Borrower (i) agrees to insure, repair, maintain and restore damage to the Property, escrow and pay Taxes and Other Charges, and comply with Legal Requirements, in accordance with the Loan Agreement, and (ii) agrees that the Proceeds of Insurance and Awards for Condemnation shall be settled, held and applied in accordance with the Loan Agreement.
2. Leases and Rents.
(a) Borrower does hereby absolutely and unconditionally assign to Lender all of Borrowers right, title and interest in all current and future Leases and Rents, it being intended by Borrower that this assignment constitutes a present, absolute assignment and not an assignment for additional security only. Such assignment shall not be construed to bind Lender to the performance of any of the covenants or provisions contained in any Lease or otherwise impose any obligation upon Lender. Nevertheless, subject to the terms of this paragraph, Lender grants to Borrower a revocable license to operate and manage the Property and to collect the Rents subject to the requirements of the Loan Agreement (including the deposit of Rents into the Clearing Account). Upon an Event of Default, without the need for notice or demand, the license granted to Borrower herein shall automatically be revoked, and Lender shall immediately be entitled to possession of all Rents in the Clearing Account, the Deposit Account (including all Subaccounts thereof) and all Rents collected thereafter (including Rents past due and unpaid), whether or not Lender enters upon or takes control of the Property. Borrower hereby grants and assigns to Lender the right, at its option, upon revocation of the license granted herein, to enter upon the Property in person, by agent or by court-appointed receiver to collect the Rents. Unless prohibited by applicable law, any Rents collected after the revocation of such license may be applied toward payment of the Debt in such priority and proportions as Lender in its sole discretion shall deem proper.
(b) Borrower shall not enter into, modify, amend, cancel, terminate or renew any Lease except as provided in Section 5.10 of the Loan Agreement.
3. Use of Property. Except as provided in the Loan Agreement, (a) Borrower shall not initiate, join in, acquiesce in or consent to any change in any private restrictive covenant, zoning law or other public or private restriction, limiting or defining the uses which may be made of the Property; (b) if under applicable zoning provisions the use of the Property is or shall become a nonconforming use, Borrower shall not cause or permit such nonconforming use to be discontinued or abandoned without the consent of Lender; and (c) Borrower shall not (i) change the use of the Property, or (ii) permit or suffer to occur any waste on or to the Property.
4. Transfer or Encumbrance of the Property.
(a) Borrower acknowledges that (i) Lender has examined and relied on the creditworthiness and experience of the principals of Borrower in owning and operating properties such as the Property in agreeing to make the Loan, (ii) Lender will continue to rely on Borrowers ownership of the Property as a means of maintaining the value of the Property as security for the Debt, and (iii) Lender has a valid interest in maintaining the value of the Property so as to ensure that, should Borrower default in the repayment of the Debt, Lender can recover the Debt by a sale of the Property. Borrower shall not sell, convey, alienate, mortgage, encumber, pledge or otherwise transfer the Property or any part thereof, or suffer or permit any Transfer to occur, other than a Permitted Transfer or as otherwise expressly permitted under the Loan Documents.
(b) Lender shall not be required to demonstrate any actual impairment of its security or any increased risk of default hereunder in order to declare the Debt immediately due and payable upon Transfer in violation of this Paragraph 4. This provision shall apply to every sale, conveyance, alienation, mortgage, encumbrance, pledge or transfer of the Property (and every other Transfer) regardless of whether voluntary or not. Any Transfer made in contravention of this Paragraph 4 shall be null and void and of no force and effect, to the fullest extent permitted by law. Borrower agrees to bear and shall pay or reimburse Lender on demand for all reasonable expenses (including reasonable attorneys fees and disbursements, title search costs and title insurance endorsement premiums) incurred by Lender in connection with the review, approval and documentation of any Permitted Transfer.
5. Changes in Laws Regarding Taxation. If any law is enacted or adopted or amended after the date of this Security Instrument which deducts the Debt from the value of the Property for the purpose of taxation or which imposes a tax, either directly or indirectly, on the Debt or Lenders interest in the Property, Borrower will pay such tax, with interest and penalties thereon, if any. If Lender is advised by its counsel that the payment of such tax or interest and penalties by Borrower would be unlawful, taxable to Lender or unenforceable, or would provide the basis for a defense of usury, then Lender shall have the option, by notice of not less than 90 days, to declare the Debt immediately due and payable.
6. No Credits on Account of the Debt. Borrower shall not claim or demand or be entitled to any credit on account of the Debt for any part of the Taxes or Other Charges assessed against the Property, and no deduction shall otherwise be made or claimed from the assessed value of the Property for real estate tax purposes by reason of this Security Instrument or the Debt. If such claim, credit or deduction shall be required by law, Lender shall have the option, by notice of not less than 90 days, to declare the Debt immediately due and payable.
7. Further Acts, Etc. Borrower shall, at its sole cost, do, execute, acknowledge and deliver all and every such further acts, deeds, conveyances, mortgages, assignments, notices of assignment, transfers and assurances as Lender shall, from time to time, require, for the better assuring, conveying, assigning, transferring, and confirming unto Lender the property and rights hereby mortgaged, given, granted, bargained, sold, alienated, enfeoffed, conveyed, confirmed, pledged, assigned and hypothecated or intended now or hereafter so to be, or which Borrower may be or may hereafter become bound to convey or assign to Lender, or for carrying out the intention or facilitating the performance of the terms of this Security Instrument, or for filing, registering or recording this Security Instrument or for facilitating the sale and transfer of the Loan and the Loan Documents in connection with a Secondary Market Transaction as described in Section 9.1 of the Loan Agreement. Upon foreclosure, the
appointment of a receiver or any other relevant action, Borrower shall, at its sole cost, cooperate fully and completely to effect the assignment or transfer of any license, permit, agreement or any other right necessary or useful to the operation of the Property. Borrower grants to Lender an irrevocable power of attorney coupled with an interest for the purpose of exercising and perfecting any and all rights and remedies available to Lender at law and in equity, including such rights and remedies available to Lender pursuant to this paragraph. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the immediately preceding sentence, Lender shall not execute any document as attorney-in-fact of Borrower unless (x) Borrower shall have failed or refused to execute the same within five (5) Business Days after Lenders request therefor, or (y) in Lenders good faith determination it would be materially prejudiced by the delay involved in making such a request. Lender shall give prompt notice to Borrower of any exercise of the power of attorney as provided for in this Paragraph 7, along with copies of all documents executed in connection therewith.
8. Recording of Security Instrument, Etc. Borrower forthwith upon the execution and delivery of this Security Instrument and thereafter, from time to time, shall cause this Security Instrument, and any security instrument creating a lien or security interest or evidencing the lien hereof upon the Property and each instrument of further assurance to be filed, registered or recorded in such manner and in such places as may be required by any present or future law in order to publish notice of and fully to protect the lien or security interest hereof upon, and the interest of Lender in, the Property. Borrower shall pay all filing, registration or recording fees, all expenses incident to the preparation, execution and acknowledgment of and all federal, state, county and municipal, taxes, duties, imposts, documentary stamps, assessments and charges arising out of or in connection with the execution and delivery of, this Security Instrument, any Security Instrument supplemental hereto, any security instrument with respect to the Property or any instrument of further assurance, except where prohibited by law so to do. Borrower shall hold harmless and indemnify Lender, its successors and assigns, against any liability incurred by reason of the imposition of any tax on the making or recording of this Security Instrument.
9. Right to Cure Defaults. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, Lender may, but without any obligation to do so and without notice to or demand on Borrower and without releasing Borrower from any obligation hereunder, perform the obligations in Default in such manner and to such extent as Lender may deem necessary to protect the security hereof. Lender is authorized to enter upon the Property for such purposes or appear in, defend or bring any action or proceeding to protect its interest in the Property or to foreclose this Security Instrument or collect the Debt, and the cost and expense thereof (including reasonable attorneys fees and disbursements to the extent permitted by law), with interest thereon at the Default Rate for the period after notice from Lender that such cost or expense was incurred to the date of payment to Lender, shall constitute a portion of the Debt, shall be secured by this Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents and shall be due and payable to Lender upon demand.
10. Remedies.
(a) Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, Lender may take such action, without notice or demand, as it deems advisable to protect and enforce its rights against Borrower and in and to the Property, by Lender itself or otherwise, including the following actions, each of which may be pursued concurrently or otherwise, at such time and in such order
as Lender may determine, in its sole discretion, without impairing or otherwise affecting the other rights and remedies of Lender:
(i) declare the entire Debt to be immediately due and payable;
(ii) give such notice of default and of election to cause the Trust Property to be sold as may be required by law or as may be necessary to cause Beneficiary to exercise the power of sale granted herein; Beneficiary shall then record and give such notice of Beneficiarys sale as then required by law and, after the expiration of such time as may be required by law, may sell the Trust Property at the time and place specified in the notice of sale, as a whole or in separate parcels as directed by Beneficiary, or by Trustor to the extent required by law, at public auction to the highest bidder for cash in lawful money of the United States, payable at time of sale, all in accordance with applicable law. Beneficiary, from time to time, may postpone or continue the sale of all or any portion of the Trust Property by public declaration at the time and place last appointed for the sale and no other notice of the postponed sale shall be required unless provided by applicable law. Upon any sale, Beneficiary shall deliver its deed conveying the property sold, without any covenant or warranty, expressed or implied, to the purchaser or purchasers at the sale. The recitals in such deed of any matters or facts shall be conclusive as to the accuracy thereof;
(iii) institute a proceeding or proceedings, judicial or nonjudicial, to the extent permitted by law, by advertisement, by action or otherwise, for the complete foreclosure of this Security Instrument, in which case the Property may be sold for cash or upon credit in one or more parcels or in several interests or portions and in any order or manner;
(iv) with or without entry, to the extent permitted and pursuant to the procedures provided by applicable law, institute proceedings for the partial foreclosure of this Security Instrument for the portion of the Debt then due and payable, subject to the continuing lien of this Security Instrument for the balance of the Debt not then due;
(v) sell for cash or upon credit the Property and all estate, claim, demand, right, title and interest of Borrower therein and rights of redemption thereof, pursuant to the power of sale, to the extent permitted by law, or otherwise, at one or more sales, as an entirety or in parcels, at such time and place, upon such terms and after such notice thereof as may be required or permitted by law;
(vi) institute an action, suit or proceeding in equity for the specific performance of any covenant, condition or agreement contained herein or in any other Loan Document;
(vii) recover judgment on the Note either before, during or after any proceeding for the enforcement of this Security Instrument;
(viii) apply for the ex-parte appointment of a trustee, receiver, liquidator or conservator of the Property, without notice and without regard for the adequacy of the security for the Debt and without regard for the solvency of the Borrower or of any person, firm or other entity liable for the payment of the Debt;
(ix) enforce Lenders interest in the Leases and Rents and enter into or upon the Property, either personally or by its agents, nominees or attorneys and dispossess Borrower and its agents and employees therefrom, and thereupon Lender may (A) use, operate, manage, control, insure, maintain, repair, restore and otherwise deal with the Property and conduct the business thereat; (B) complete any construction on the Property in such manner and form as Lender deems advisable; (C) make alterations, additions, renewals, replacements and improvements to or on the Property; (D) exercise all rights and powers of Borrower with respect to the Property, whether in the name of Borrower or otherwise, including the right to make, cancel, enforce or modify Leases, obtain and evict tenants, and demand, sue for, collect and receive Rents; and (E) unless prohibited by applicable law, apply the receipts from the Property to the payment of the Debt, after deducting therefrom all expenses (including reasonable attorneys fees and disbursements) incurred in connection with the aforesaid operations and all amounts necessary to pay the Taxes, insurance and other charges in connection with the Property, as well as just and reasonable compensation for the services of Lender, and its counsel, agents and employees;
(x) require Borrower to pay monthly in advance to Lender, or any receiver appointed to collect the Rents, the fair and reasonable rental value for the use and occupation of any portion of the Property occupied by Borrower, and require Borrower to vacate and surrender possession of the Property to Lender or to such receiver, and, in default thereof, evict Borrower by summary proceedings or otherwise; or
(xi) pursue such other rights and remedies as may be available at law or in equity or under the UCC, including the right to receive and/or establish a lock box for all Rents and proceeds from the Intangibles and any other receivables or rights to payments of Borrower relating to the Property.
In the event of a sale, by foreclosure or otherwise, of less than all of the Property, this Security Instrument shall continue as a lien on the remaining portion of the Property.
(b) The proceeds of any sale made under or by virtue of this Paragraph 10, together with any other sums which then may be held by Lender under this Security Instrument, whether under the provisions of this paragraph or otherwise, shall be applied by Lender to the payment of the Debt in such priority and proportion as Lender in its sole discretion shall deem proper.
(c) To the extent permitted by law, Lender may adjourn from time to time any sale by it to be made under or by virtue of this Security Instrument by announcement at the time and place appointed for such sale or for such adjourned sale or sales; and, except as otherwise provided by any applicable law, Lender, without further notice or publication, may make such sale at the time and place to which the same shall be so adjourned.
(d) Upon the completion of any sale or sales pursuant hereto, Lender, or an officer of any court empowered to do so, shall execute and deliver to the accepted purchaser or purchasers a good and sufficient instrument, or good and sufficient instruments, conveying, assigning and transferring all estate, right, title and interest in and to the property and rights sold. Beneficiary is hereby irrevocably appointed the true and lawful attorney of Trustor, in its name and stead, to make all necessary conveyances, assignments, transfers and deliveries of the Trust Property and rights so sold and for that purpose Beneficiary may execute all necessary instruments of conveyance, assignment and transfer, and may substitute one or more persons with like power, Trustor hereby ratifying and confirming all that its said attorney or such substitute or substitutes shall lawfully do by virtue hereof. Any sale or sales made under or by virtue of this Paragraph 10, 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, shall operate to divest all the estate, right, title, interest, claim and demand whatsoever, whether at law or in equity, of Borrower in and to the properties and rights so sold, and shall be a perpetual bar both at law and in equity against Borrower and against any and all persons claiming or who may claim the same, or any part thereof, from, through or under Borrower, subject only to such redemption rights as are required by law.
(e) To the extent permitted by law, upon any sale made under or by virtue of this Paragraph 10, whether made under a power of sale or under or by virtue of judicial proceedings or of a judgment or decree of foreclosure and sale, Lender may bid for and acquire the Property or any part thereof and in lieu of paying cash therefor may make settlement for the purchase price by crediting upon the Debt the net sales price after deducting therefrom the expenses of the sale and costs of the action and any other sums which Lender is authorized to deduct under this Security Instrument or any other Loan Document.
(f) No recovery of any judgment by Lender and no levy of an execution under any judgment upon the Property or upon any other property of Borrower shall affect in any manner or to any extent the lien of this Security Instrument upon the Property or any part thereof, or any liens, rights, powers or remedies of Lender hereunder, but such liens, rights, powers and remedies of Lender shall continue unimpaired as before.
(g) To the extent permitted by law, Lender may terminate or rescind any proceeding or other action brought in connection with its exercise of the remedies provided in this Paragraph 10 at any time before the conclusion thereof, as determined in Lenders sole discretion and without prejudice to Lender.
(h) Lender may resort to any remedies and the security given by this Security Instrument or in any other Loan Document in whole or in part, and in such portions and in such order as determined by Lenders sole discretion. No such action shall in any way be considered a waiver of any rights, benefits or remedies evidenced or provided by any Loan Document. The failure of Lender to exercise any right, remedy or option provided in any Loan Document shall not be deemed a waiver of such right, remedy or option or of any covenant or obligation secured by any Loan Document. No acceptance by Lender of any payment after the occurrence of any Event of Default and no payment by Lender of any obligation for which Borrower is liable hereunder shall be deemed to waive or cure any Event of Default, or Borrowers liability to pay such obligation. No sale of all or any portion of the Property, no forbearance on the part of Lender, and no extension of time for the payment of the whole or any portion of the Debt or any other indulgence given by Lender to Borrower, shall operate to release or in any manner affect
the interest of Lender in the remaining Property or the liability of Borrower to pay the Debt. No waiver by Lender shall be effective unless it is in writing and then only to the extent specifically stated. All costs and expenses of Lender in exercising its rights and remedies under this Paragraph 10 (including reasonable attorneys fees and disbursements to the extent permitted by law), shall be paid by Borrower immediately upon notice from Lender, with interest at the Default Rate for the period after notice from Lender, and such costs and expenses shall constitute a portion of the Debt and shall be secured by this Security Instrument.
(i) The interests and rights of Lender under the Loan Documents shall not be impaired by any indulgence, including (i) any renewal, extension or modification which Lender may grant with respect to any of the Debt, (ii) any surrender, compromise, release, renewal, extension, exchange or substitution which Lender may grant with respect to the Property or any portion thereof or (iii) any release or indulgence granted to any maker, endorser, guarantor or surety of any of the Debt.
11. Right of Entry. In addition to any other rights or remedies granted under this Security Instrument, Lender and its agents shall have the right to enter and inspect the Property at any reasonable time during the term of this Security Instrument. The cost of such inspections or audits shall be borne by Borrower should Lender determine that an Event of Default exists, including the cost of all follow up or additional investigations or inquiries deemed reasonably necessary by Lender. The cost of such inspections, if not paid for by Borrower following demand, may be added to the principal balance of the sums due under the Note and this Security Instrument and shall bear interest thereafter until paid at the Default Rate.
12. Security Agreement.
(a) This Security Instrument is both a real property deed of trust and a security agreement within the meaning of the UCC. The Property includes both real and personal property and all other rights and interests, whether tangible or intangible in nature, of Borrower in the Property. Borrower by executing and delivering this Security Instrument has granted and hereby grants to Lender, as security for the Debt, a security interest in the Property to the full extent that the Property may be subject to the UCC (such portion of the Property so subject to the UCC being called in this paragraph the Collateral). This Security Instrument shall also constitute a fixture filing for the purposes of the UCC and is to be filed for record in the real estate records where any part of the Property (including said fixtures) is situated. As such, this Security Instrument covers all items of the Collateral that are or are to become fixtures. Information concerning the security interest herein granted may be obtained from the parties at the addresses of the parties set forth in the first paragraph of this Security Instrument. If an Event of Default shall occur, Lender, in addition to any other rights and remedies which it may have, shall have and may exercise immediately and without demand, any and all rights and remedies granted to a secured party upon default under the UCC, including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the right to take possession of the Collateral or any part thereof, and to take such other measures as Lender may deem necessary for the care, protection and preservation of the Collateral. Upon request or demand of Lender, Borrower shall at its expense assemble the Collateral and make it available to Lender at a convenient place acceptable to Lender. Borrower shall pay to Lender on demand any and all expenses, including reasonable attorneys fees and disbursements, incurred or paid by Lender in protecting the interest in the Collateral and in enforcing the rights hereunder with respect to the Collateral. Any notice of sale, disposition or other intended action by Lender with respect to the Collateral, sent to
Borrower in accordance with the provisions hereof at least ten days prior to such action, shall constitute commercially reasonable notice to Borrower. The proceeds of any disposition of the Collateral, or any part thereof, may be applied by Lender to the payment of the Debt in such priority and proportions as Lender in its sole discretion shall deem proper. In the event of any change in name, identity or structure of Borrower, Borrower shall notify Lender thereof and promptly after request shall execute, file and record such UCC forms as are necessary to maintain the priority of Lenders lien upon and security interest in the Collateral, and shall pay all expenses and fees in connection with the filing and recording thereof. If Lender shall require the filing or recording of additional UCC forms or continuation statements, Borrower shall, promptly after request, execute, file and record such UCC forms or continuation statements as Lender shall deem necessary, and shall pay all expenses and fees in connection with the filing and recording thereof, it being understood and agreed, however, that no such additional documents shall increase Borrowers obligations under the Loan Documents. Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints Lender as its attorney-in-fact, coupled with an interest, to file with the appropriate public office on its behalf any financing or other statements signed only by Lender, as secured party, in connection with the Collateral covered by this Security Instrument.

(a) Lender may proceed as if all of the Property were real property, in accordance with subparagraph (c) below, or Lender may elect to treat any of the Property which consists of a right in action or which is property that can be severed from the Land without causing structural damage thereto as if the same were personal property, and dispose of the same in accordance with 12(a), separate and apart from the sale of real property, the remainder of the Property being treated as real property.
(b) Lender may cause any such sale or other disposition to be conducted immediately following the expiration of any grace period, if any, herein provided (or immediately upon the expiration of any redemption period required by law) or Lender may delay any such sale or other disposition for such period of time as Lender deems to be in its best interest. Should Lender desire that more than one such sale or other disposition be conducted, Lender may at its option, cause the same to be conducted simultaneously, or successively on the same day, or at such different days or times and in such order as Lender may deem to be in its best interest.
(c) Lender may elect to sell the Property which is real property or which Lender has elected to treat as real property, upon such election Lender or Trustee shall give such Notice of Default and Election to Sell as may then be required by law. Thereafter, upon the expiration of such time and the giving of such Notice of Sale as may then be required by law, Trustee, at the time and place specified in the Notice of Sale, shall sell such Property, or any portion thereof specified by Lender, at public auction to the highest bidder for cash in lawful money of the United States, subject, however, to the provisions of subparagraph (h) hereof. Trustee for good cause may, and upon request of Lender shall, from time to time, postpone the sale by public announcement thereof at the time and place noticed therefor. If the Property consists of several lots or parcels, Lender may designate the order in which such lots or parcels shall be offered for sale or sold. Any person, including Borrower, Trustee or Lender, may purchase at the sale. Upon any sale Trustee shall execute and deliver to the purchaser or purchasers a deed or deeds conveying the property so sold, but without any covenant or warranty whatsoever, express or implied, whereupon such purchaser or purchasers shall be let into immediate possession.
(d) In the event of a sale or other disposition of any such property, or any part thereof, and the execution of a deed or other conveyance, pursuant thereto, the recitals therein of
facts, such as a default, the giving of notice of default and notice of sale, demand that such sale should be made, postponement of sale, terms of sale, sale, purchaser, payment of purchase money, and any other fact affecting the regularity or validity of such sale or disposition, shall be conclusive proof of the truth of such facts; and any such deed of conveyance shall be conclusive against all persons as to such facts recited therein.
(c) Lender and/or Trustee shall apply the proceeds of any sale or disposition hereunder to payment of the following: (1) the expenses of such sale or disposition together with Trustee's fees and reasonable attorneys' fees, and the actual cost of publishing, recording, mailing and posting notice; (2) the cost of any search and/or other evidence of title procured in connection therewith and transfer tax on any deed or conveyance; (3) all sums expended under the terms hereof, not then repaid, with accrued interest in the amount provided herein; (4) all other sums secured hereby in accordance with Section 10(b); and (5) the remainder if any to the person or persons legally entitled thereto.
(f) The acknowledgment of the receipt of the purchase money, contained in any deed or conveyance executed as aforesaid, shall be sufficient discharge from all obligations to see to the proper application of the consideration therefor.
(g) Borrower hereby expressly waives any right which it may have to direct the order in which any of the Property shall be sold in the event of any sale or sales pursuant hereto.
(h) Upon any sale of the Property, whether made under a power of sale herein granted or pursuant to judicial proceedings, if the holder of the Note is a purchaser at such sale, it shall be entitled to use and apply all or any portion of the indebtedness then secured hereby for or in settlement or payment of all or any portion of the purchase price of the property purchased, and, in such case, this Security Instrument, the Note and documents evidencing expenditures secured hereby shall be presented to the person conducting the sale in order that the amount of said indebtedness so used or applied may be credited thereon as having been paid.
(i) No remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to Trustee or Lender is intended to be exclusive of any other remedy herein or by law provided, 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 this instrument to Trustee or Lender, or to which either of them may be otherwise entitled, may be exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient by Trustee or Lender, and either of them may pursue inconsistent remedies. If there exists additional security for the performance of the obligations secured hereby, the holder of the Note, at its sole option and without limiting or affecting any rights or remedies hereunder, may exercise any of the rights and remedies to which it may be entitled hereunder either concurrently with whatever other rights it may have in connection with such other security or in such order as it may determine.
(j) Borrower hereby requests that every notice of default and every notice of sale be delivered to Borrower at 15601 Dallas Parkway, Suite 600, Addison, Texas 75001, except as otherwise required by statute. Borrower may, from time to time, change the address to which notice of default and sale hereunder shall be sent by both filing a request therefore, in the manner provided by the California Civil Code, Section 2924b, and sending a copy of such
request to Lender, its successors or assigns in accordance with the provisions of Section 15 hereof.
37 Other Remedies. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Lender, in addition to all other rights and remedies under this Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents, may do any or all of the following:
(a) Have a receiver appointed to enter into possession of the Property, lease the Property, collect the Rents and apply them as the appropriate court may direct.

Lenders rights hereunder include its rights under California Code of Civil Procedure Section 564, as such Section may be amended from time to time; and/or

(c) Trustee shall be under no duty to take any action hereunder except as expressly required hereunder or by law, or to perform any act which would involve Trustee in any expense or liability or to institute or defend any suit in respect hereof, unless properly indemnified to Trustees reasonable satisfaction. Trustee, by acceptance of this Security Instrument, covenants to perform and fulfill the trusts herein created, being liable, however, only for gross negligence or willful misconduct, and hereby waives any statutory fee and agrees to accept reasonable compensation, in lieu thereof, for any services rendered by Trustee in accordance with the terms hereof. Trustee may resign at any time upon giving thirty (30) days notice to Borrower and to Lender. Lender may remove Trustee at any time or from time to time and select a successor trustee. In the event of the death, removal, resignation, refusal to act, or inability to act of Trustee, or in its sole discretion for any reason whatsoever Lender may, without notice and without specifying any reason therefor and without applying to any court, select and appoint a successor trustee, by an instrument recorded wherever this Security Instrument is recorded and all powers, rights, duties and authority of Trustee, as aforesaid, shall thereupon become vested in such successor without conveyance from the predecessor Trustee. Such instrument must contain the name of the original Borrower, Trustee and Lender hereunder, the book and page where this Security Instrument is recorded, and the name and address of the new Trustee. Such substitute trustee shall not be required to give bond for the faithful performance of the duties of Trustee hereunder unless required by Lender.
