In order to secure the prompt payment and performance of the Obligations, Grantor, as tenants in common, (a) irrevocably and unconditionally grants, conveys, transfers and assigns to Trustee, in trust, for the benefit of Beneficiary, with power of sale and right of entry and possession, all estate, right, title and interest that Grantor now has or may later acquire in and to the Real Property; (b) grants to Beneficiary a security interest in the Personalty; (c) assigns to Beneficiary, and grants to Beneficiary a security interest in, all Condemnation Awards and all Insurance Proceeds; and (d) assigns to Beneficiary, and grants to Beneficiary a security interest

in, all of Grantors right, title and interest in, but not any of Grantors obligations or liabilities under, all Design and Development Documents, all Contracts of Sale and all Refinancing Commitments. All Persons who may have or acquire an interest in all or any part of the Property will be deemed to have notice of, and will be bound by, the terms of the Obligations and each other agreement or instrument made or entered into in connection with each of the Obligations. Such terms include any provisions in the Note, the Loan Agreement or any Swap Contract which provide that the interest rate on one or more of the Obligations may vary from time to time. Unless Lender otherwise agrees in writing, Grantors obligations under any Swap Contract shall continue to be secured by this Deed of Trust notwithstanding that Lender has sold, participated, syndicated or otherwise transferred or released some or all of its interest in the Loan to another person.
Section 2.2 Absolute Assignment of Leases and Rents.
In consideration of the making of the Loan by Beneficiary to Grantor and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Grantor absolutely and unconditionally assigns the Leases and Rents to Beneficiary. This assignment is, and is intended to be, an unconditional, absolute and present assignment from Grantor to Beneficiary of all of Grantors right, title and interest in and to the Leases and the Rents and not an assignment in the nature of a pledge of the Leases and Rents or the mere grant of a security interest therein. So long as no Event of Default shall exist, however, and so long as Grantor is not in default in the performance of any obligation, covenant or agreement contained in the Leases, Grantor shall have a license (which license shall terminate automatically and without notice upon the occurrence of an Event of Default or a default by Grantor under the Leases) to collect, but not prior to accrual, all Rents. Grantor agrees to collect and hold all Rents in trust for Beneficiary and to use the Rents for the payment of the cost of operating and maintaining the Property and for the payment of the other Obligations before using the Rents for any other purpose.
Section 2.3 Security Agreement, Fixture Filing and Financing Statement.
This Deed of Trust creates a security interest in the Personalty, and, to the extent the Personalty is not real property, this Deed of Trust constitutes a security agreement from Grantor to Beneficiary under the Uniform Commercial Code of the State. In addition to all of its other rights under this Deed of Trust and otherwise, Beneficiary shall have all of the rights of a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code of the State, as in effect from time to time, or under the Uniform Commercial Code in force from time to time in any other state to the extent the same is applicable Law. This Deed of Trust shall be effective as a financing statement filed as a fixture filing with respect to all fixtures included within the Property and is to be filed for record in the real estate records of each county where any part of the Property (including such fixtures) is situated. This Deed of Trust shall also be effective as a financing statement with respect to any other Property as to which a security interest may be perfected by the filing of a financing statement and may be filed as such in any appropriate filing or recording office. The respective mailing addresses of Grantor and Beneficiary are set forth in the opening paragraph of this Deed of Trust. A carbon, photographic or other reproduction of this Deed of Trust or any other financing statement relating to this Deed of Trust shall be sufficient as a financing statement for any of the purposes referred to in this Section. Grantor hereby irrevocably authorizes
-8-
Beneficiary at any time and from time to time to file any initial financing statements, amendments thereto and continuation statements as authorized by applicable Law, reasonably required by Beneficiary to establish or maintain the validity, perfection and priority of the security interests granted in this Deed of Trust. The foregoing authorization includes Grantors irrevocable authorization for Beneficiary at any time and from time to time to file any initial financing statements and amendments thereto that indicate the Personalty (a) as all assets of Grantor or words of similar effect, regardless of whether any particular asset comprised in the Personalty falls within the scope of the Uniform Commercial Code of the State or the jurisdiction where the initial financing statement or amendment is filed, or (b) as being of an equal or lesser scope or with greater detail; provided that in either case, such description is limited to assets used on or in connection with the Property.
Section 2.4 Reconveyance of Deed of Trust and Termination of Assignments and Financing Statements.
If and when Grantor has paid and performed all of the Obligations, and no further advances are to be made under the Loan Agreement and all Swap Contracts have been terminated, Trustee, upon request by Beneficiary, will provide a release of the Property from the lien of this Deed of Trust and termination statements for filed financing statements, if any, to Grantor. Grantor shall be responsible for the recordation of such release and the payment of any recording and filing costs. Upon the recording of such release and the filing of such termination statements, the absolute assignments set forth in Section 2.2 shall automatically terminate and become null and void. Partial releases of the Property from the lien of this Deed of Trust shall be made on the terms and subject to the conditions of the Loan Agreement. No partial release shall be sought, requested or required if any Event of Default has occurred which has not been cured.
Article III
Representations and Warranties

Grantor makes the following representations and warranties to Beneficiary:
Section 3.1 Title to Real Property.
Grantor (a) owns fee simple title to the Real Property, (b) owns all of the beneficial and equitable interest in and to the Real Property, and (c) is lawfully seized and possessed of the Real Property. Grantor has the right and authority to convey the Real Property and does hereby convey the Real Property. The Real Property is subject to no Encumbrances other than the Permitted Encumbrances.
Section 3.2 Title to Other Property.
Grantor has good title to the Personalty, and the Personalty is not subject to any Encumbrance other than the Permitted Encumbrances. None of the Leases, Rents, Design and Development Documents, Contracts of Sale or Refinancing Commitments are subject to any Encumbrance other than the Permitted Encumbrances.
-9-
Section 3.3 Property Assessments.
The Real Property is assessed for purposes of Property Assessments as a separate and distinct parcel from any other property, such that the Real Property shall never become subject to the Lien of any Property Assessments levied or assessed against any property other than the Real Property.
Section 3.4 Independence of the Real Property.
To Grantors knowledge, no buildings or other improvements on property not covered by this Deed of Trust rely on the Real Property or any interest therein to fulfill any requirement of any Governmental Authority for the existence of such property, building or improvements; and none of the Real Property relies, or will rely, on any property not covered by this Deed of Trust or any interest therein to fulfill any requirement of any Governmental Authority. To Grantors knowledge, the Real Property has been properly subdivided from all other property in accordance with the requirements of any applicable Governmental Authorities.
Section 3.5 Existing Improvements.
The existing Improvements, if any, were constructed, and are being used and maintained, in accordance with all applicable Laws, including zoning Laws.
Section 3.6 Leases and Tenants.
The Leases are valid and are in full force and effect, and Grantor is not in default under any of the terms thereof. Except as expressly permitted in the Loan Agreement, Grantor has not accepted any Rents in advance of the time the same became due under the Leases and has not forgiven, compromised or discounted any of the Rents. Grantor has title to and the right to assign the Leases and Rents to Beneficiary, and no other assignment of the Leases or Rents has been granted. To the best of Grantors knowledge and belief, no tenant or tenants occupying, individually or in the aggregate, more than five percent (5%) of the net rentable area of the Improvements are in default under their Lease(s) or are the subject of any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar proceeding.

To the extent permitted by Law, Beneficiary shall be subrogated, notwithstanding its release of record, to any Lien now or hereafter existing on the Property to the extent that such Lien is paid or discharged by Beneficiary whether or not from the proceeds of the Loan. This Section shall not be deemed or construed, however, to obligate Beneficiary to pay or discharge any Lien. If all or any portion of the proceeds of the loan evidenced by the Note or of any other secured indebtedness has been advanced for the purpose of paying the purchase price for all or a part of the Property, no vendors or purchase money lien is waived; and Beneficiary shall have, and is hereby granted, a vendors or purchase money lien on the Property as cumulative additional security for the secured indebtedness.

(b) Neither Trustee nor Beneficiary shall be obligated to perform or discharge any obligation of Grantor under any Lease. The assignment of Leases provided for in this Deed of Trust in no manner places on Beneficiary or Trustee any responsibility for (i) the control, care, management or repair of the Property, (ii) the carrying out of any of the terms and conditions of the Leases, (iii) any waste committed on the Property, or (iv) any dangerous or defective condition on the Property (whether known or unknown).
(c) No approval of any Lease by Beneficiary shall be for any purpose other than to protect Beneficiarys security and to preserve Beneficiarys rights under the Loan Documents, and no such approval shall result in a waiver of a Default or Event of Default.

Rights and Remedies
Rights and Remedies
Upon the happening of and during the continuance of any Event of Default, Beneficiary shall have the right, in addition to any other rights or remedies available to Beneficiary under any of the Loan Documents or applicable Law, to exercise any one or more of the following rights, powers or remedies:
Section 7.1 Acceleration.
Beneficiary may accelerate all Obligations under the Loan Documents (except as provided below) whereupon such Obligations shall become immediately due and payable,
-16-
without notice of default, notice of acceleration or intention to accelerate, presentment or demand for payment, protest, notice of protest, notice of nonpayment or dishonor, or notices or demands of any kind or character (all of which are hereby waived by Grantor); provided that the foregoing provisions of this Section 7.1 shall not be applicable to the Swap Contracts, and any acceleration of the obligations thereunder or exercise of other remedies thereunder shall be governed by the terms of the Swap Contracts.
Section 7.2 Foreclosure.
Trustee is authorized and empowered and it shall be his special duty at the request of Beneficiary to sell the Property or any part thereof situated in the State of Texas, at the courthouse of any county (whether or not the counties in which the Property is located are contiguous, if the Property is located in more than one county) in the State of Texas in which any part of the Property is situated, at public venue to the highest bidder for cash between the hours of ten oclock a.m. and four oclock p.m. on the first Tuesday in any month or at such other place, time and date as provided by the statutes of the State of Texas then in force governing sales of real estate under powers of sale conferred by deed of trust, after having given notice of such sale in accordance with such statutes. Any sale made by Trustee hereunder may be as an entirety or in such parcels as Beneficiary may request. To the extent permitted by applicable Law, any sale may be adjourned by announcement at the time and place appointed for such sale without further notice except as may be required by Law. The sale by Trustee of less than the whole of the Property shall not exhaust the power of sale herein granted, and Trustee is specifically empowered to make successive sale or sales under such power until the whole of the Property shall be sold; and, if the proceeds of such sale of less than the whole of the Property shall be less than the aggregate of the Obligations and the expense of executing this trust as provided herein, this Deed of Trust and the lien hereof shall remain in full force and effect as to the unsold portion of the Property just as though no sale had been made; provided, however, that Grantor shall never have any right to require the sale of less than the whole of the Property but Beneficiary shall have the right, at its sole election, to request Trustee to sell less than the whole of the Property. Trustee may, after any request or direction by Beneficiary, and as agent for the Beneficiary, sell not only the real property but also the Personalty and other interests which are a part of the Property, or any part thereof, as a unit and as a part of a single sale, or may sell any part of the Property separately from the remainder of the Property. It shall not be necessary for Trustee to have taken possession of any part of the Property or to have present or to exhibit at any sale any of the Personalty. After each sale, Trustee shall make to the purchaser or purchasers at such sale good and sufficient conveyances in the name of Grantor, conveying the property so sold to the purchaser or purchasers with general warranty of title of Grantor, subject to the Permitted Encumbrances (and to such leases and other matters, if any, as Trustee may elect upon request of Beneficiary), and shall receive the proceeds of said sale or sales and apply the same as herein provided. Payment of the purchase price to the Trustee shall satisfy the obligation of purchaser at such sale therefor, and such purchaser shall not be responsible for the application thereof. The power of sale granted herein shall not be exhausted by any sale held hereunder by Trustee or his substitute or successor, and such power of sale may be exercised from time to time and as many times as Beneficiary may deem necessary until all of the Property has been duly sold and all Obligations has been fully paid. In the event any sale hereunder is not completed or is defective in the opinion of Holder, such sale shall not exhaust the power of sale hereunder and Beneficiary shall have the right to cause a subsequent sale or sales to be made
-17-
hereunder. Any and all statements of fact or other recitals made in any deed or deeds or other conveyances given by Trustee or any successor or substitute appointed hereunder as to nonpayment of the Obligations or as to the occurrence of any default, or as to Beneficiarys having declared all of said indebtedness to be due and payable, or as to the request to sell, or as to notice of time, place and terms of sale and the properties to be sold having been duly given, or as to the refusal, failure or inability to act of Trustee or any substitute or successor trustee, or as to the appointment of any substitute or successor trustee, or as to any other act or thing having been duly done by Holder or by such Trustee, substitute or successor, shall be taken as prima facie evidence of the truth of the facts so stated and recited. The Trustee or his successor or substitute may appoint or delegate any one or more persons as agent to perform any act or acts necessary or incident to any sale held by Trustee, including the posting of notices and the conduct of sale, but in the name and on behalf of Trustee, his successor or substitute. If Trustee or his successor or substitute shall have given notice of sale hereunder, any successor or substitute Trustee thereafter appointed may complete the sale and the conveyance of the property pursuant thereto as if such notice had been given by the successor or substitute Trustee conducting the sale.
Section 7.3 Judicial Action.
Beneficiary shall have the right from time to time to sue Grantor for any sums (whether interest, damages for failure to pay principal or any installments thereof, taxes, or any other sums required to be paid under the terms of this Deed of Trust, as the same become due), without regard to whether or not any of the other Obligations shall be due, and without prejudice to the right of Beneficiary thereafter to enforce any appropriate remedy against Grantor, including an action of foreclosure or an action for specific performance, for a Default or Event of Default existing at the time such earlier action was commenced.
Section 7.4 Collection of Rents.
Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the license granted to Grantor to collect the Rents shall be automatically and immediately revoked, without further notice to or demand upon Grantor. Beneficiary may, but shall not be obligated to, perform any or all obligations of the landlord under any or all of the Leases, and Beneficiary may, but shall not be obligated to, exercise and enforce any or all of Grantors rights under the Leases. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Beneficiary may notify the tenants under the Leases that all Rents are to be paid to Beneficiary, and following such notice all Rents shall be paid directly to Beneficiary and not to Grantor or any other Person other than as directed by Beneficiary, it being understood that a demand by Beneficiary on any tenant under the Leases for the payment of Rent shall be sufficient to warrant payment by such tenant of Rent to Beneficiary without the necessity of further consent by Grantor. Grantor hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs the tenants under the Leases to pay all Rents to Beneficiary instead of to Grantor, upon receipt of written notice from Beneficiary, without the necessity of any inquiry of Grantor and without the necessity of determining the existence or non-existence of an Event of Default. Grantor hereby appoints Beneficiary as Grantors attorney-in-fact with full power of substitution, which appointment shall take effect upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable prior to the full and final payment and performance of the Obligations, in Grantors name or in Beneficiarys name: (a) to endorse all checks and other instruments
-18-
received in payment of Rents and to deposit the same in any account selected by Beneficiary; (b) to give receipts and releases in relation thereto; (c) to institute, prosecute and/or settle actions for the recovery of Rents; (d) to modify the terms of any Leases including terms relating to the Rents payable thereunder; (e) to cancel any Leases; (f) to enter into new Leases; and (g) to do all other acts and things with respect to the Leases and Rents which Beneficiary may deem necessary or desirable to protect the security for the Obligations. Any Rents received shall be applied first to pay all Expenses and next in reduction of the other Obligations. Grantor shall pay, on demand, to Beneficiary, the amount of any deficiency between (i) the Rents received by Beneficiary, and (ii) all Expenses incurred together with interest thereon as provided in the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
Section 7.5 Taking Possession or Control of the Property.
As an absolute matter of right without regard to the adequacy of the security, and to the extent permitted by Law without notice to Grantor, Beneficiary shall be entitled, upon ex parte application to a court of competent jurisdiction, to the immediate appointment of a receiver for all or any part of the Property and the Rents, whether such receivership may be incidental to a proposed sale of the Property or otherwise, and Grantor hereby consents to the appointment of such a receiver and agrees that such receiver shall have all of the rights and powers granted to Beneficiary pursuant to Section 7.4. In addition, to the extent permitted by Law, and with or without the appointment of a receiver, or an application therefor, Beneficiary may (a) enter upon, and take possession of (and Grantor shall surrender actual possession of), the Property or any part thereof, without notice to Grantor and without bringing any legal action or proceeding, or, if necessary by force, legal proceedings, ejectment or otherwise, and (b) remove and exclude Grantor and its agents and employees therefrom.
Section 7.6 Management of the Property.
Upon obtaining possession of the Property or upon the appointment of a receiver as described in Section 7.5, Beneficiary, Trustee or the receiver, as the case may be, may, at its sole option, (a) make all necessary or proper repairs and Additions to or upon the Property, (b) operate, maintain, control, make secure and preserve the Property, and (c) complete the construction of any unfinished Improvements on the Property and, in connection therewith, continue any and all outstanding contracts for the erection and completion of such Improvements and make and enter into any further contracts which may be necessary, either in their or its own name or in the name of Grantor (the costs of completing such Improvements shall be Expenses secured by this Deed of Trust and shall accrue interest as provided in the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents). Beneficiary, Trustee or such receiver shall be under no liability for, or by reason of, any such taking of possession, entry, holding, removal, maintaining, operation or management, except for gross negligence or willful misconduct. The exercise of the remedies provided in this Section shall not cure or waive any Event of Default, and the enforcement of such remedies, once commenced, shall continue for so long as Beneficiary shall elect, notwithstanding the fact that the exercise of such remedies may have, for a time, cured the original Event of Default.
-19-
Section 7.7 Uniform Commercial Code.
Beneficiary may proceed under the Uniform Commercial Code as to all or any part of the Personalty, and in conjunction therewith may exercise all of the rights, remedies and powers of a secured creditor under the Uniform Commercial Code. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, Grantor shall assemble all of the Accessories and make the same available within the Improvements. Any notification required by the Uniform Commercial Code shall be deemed reasonably and properly given if sent in accordance with the Notice provisions of this Deed of Trust at least ten (10) days before any sale or other disposition of the Personalty. Disposition of the Personalty shall be deemed commercially reasonable if made pursuant to a public sale advertised at least twice in a newspaper of general circulation in the community where the Property is located. It shall be deemed commercially reasonable for the Trustee to dispose of the Personalty without giving any warranties as to the Personalty and specifically disclaiming all disposition warranties. Alternatively, Beneficiary may choose to dispose of some or all of the Property, in any combination consisting of both Personalty and Real Property, in one sale to be held in accordance with the Law and procedures applicable to real property, as permitted by Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code. Grantor agrees that such a sale of Personalty together with Real Property constitutes a commercially reasonable sale of the Personalty.
Section 7.8 Application of Proceeds.
Unless otherwise provided by applicable Law, all proceeds from the sale of the Property or any part thereof pursuant to the rights and remedies set forth in this Article VII and any other proceeds received by Beneficiary from the exercise of any of its other rights and remedies hereunder or under the other Loan Documents shall be applied first to pay all Expenses and next in reduction of the other Obligations, in such manner and order as Beneficiary may elect.
Section 7.9 Other Remedies.
Beneficiary shall have the right from time to time to protect, exercise and enforce any legal or equitable remedy against Grantor provided under the Loan Documents or by applicable Laws.
Article VIII

Section 8.1 Liability of Trustee.
Trustee shall have no liability or responsibility for, and make no warranties in connection with, the validity or enforceability of any of the Loan Documents or the description, value or status of title to the Property. Trustee shall be protected in acting upon any notice, request, consent, demand, statement, note or other paper or document believed by Trustee to be genuine and to have been signed by the party or parties purporting to sign the same. Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment, nor for any act done or step taken or omitted, nor for any mistakes of law or fact, nor for anything which Trustee may do or refrain from doing in good faith, nor generally shall Trustee have any accountability hereunder. WITHOUT LIMITATION, THE FOREGOING LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY SHALL APPLY TO TRUSTEE WITH RESPECT TO MATTERS WHICH IN WHOLE OR IN PART ARE
-20-
CAUSED BY OR ARISE OUT OF, OR ARE CLAIMED TO BE CAUSED BY OR ARISE OUT OF, THE NEGLIGENCE (WHETHER SOLE, COMPARATIVE OR CONTRIBUTORY) OR STRICT LIABILITY OF TRUSTEE. HOWEVER, SUCH INDEMNITIES SHALL NOT APPLY TO TRUSTEE TO THE EXTENT THAT THE SUBJECT OF THE INDEMNIFICATION IS CAUSED BY OR ARISES OUT OF THE GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT OF TRUSTEE. The powers and duties of Trustee hereunder may be exercised through such attorneys, agents or servants as Trustee may appoint, and Trustee shall have no liability or responsibility for any act, failure to act, negligence or willful conduct of such attorney, agent or servant, so long as the selection was made with reasonable care. In addition, Trustee may consult with legal counsel selected by Trustee, and Trustee shall have no liability or responsibility by reason of any act or failure to act in accordance with the opinions of such counsel. Trustee may act hereunder and may sell or otherwise dispose of the Property or any part thereof as herein provided, although Trustee has been, may now be or may hereafter be, an attorney, officer, agent or employee of Beneficiary, in respect of any matter or business whatsoever. Trustee, however, shall have no obligation to sell all or any part of the Property following an Event of Default or to take any other action authorized to be taken by Trustee hereunder except upon the demand of Beneficiary.
Section 8.2 Indemnification of Trustee.
Grantor agrees to indemnify Trustee and to hold Trustee harmless from and against any and all Claims and Expenses directly or indirectly arising out of or resulting from any transaction, act, omission, event or circumstance in any way connected with the Property or the Loan, including but not limited to any Claim arising out of or resulting from any assertion or allegation that Trustee is liable for any act or omission of Grantor or any other Person in connection with the ownership, development, financing, operation or sale of the Property. WITHOUT LIMITATION, THE FOREGOING INDEMNITIES SHALL APPLY TO TRUSTEE WITH RESPECT TO MATTERS WHICH IN WHOLE OR IN PART ARE CAUSED BY OR ARISE OUT OF, OR ARE CLAIMED TO BE CAUSED BY OR ARISE OUT OF, THE NEGLIGENCE (WHETHER SOLE, COMPARATIVE OR CONTRIBUTORY) OR STRICT LIABILITY OF TRUSTEE. HOWEVER, SUCH INDEMNITIES SHALL NOT APPLY TO TRUSTEE TO THE EXTENT THAT THE SUBJECT OF THE INDEMNIFICATION IS CAUSED BY OR ARISES OUT OF THE GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT OF TRUSTEE. The agreements and indemnifications contained in this Section shall apply to Claims arising both before and after the repayment of the Loan and shall survive the repayment of the Loan, any foreclosure or deed, conveyance or assignment in lieu thereof and any other action by Trustee to enforce the rights and remedies of Beneficiary or Trustee hereunder or under the other Loan Documents.
-21-
Section 8.3 Substitution of Trustee; Multiple Trustees.
Beneficiary shall have, and is hereby granted with warranty of further assurances, the irrevocable power to appoint a new or replacement or substitute Trustee. Such power may be exercised at any time without notice, without cause and without specifying any reason therefor, by filing for record in the office where this Deed of Trust is recorded a Substitution of Trustee. The power of appointment of a successor Trustee may be exercised as often as and whenever Beneficiary may choose, and the exercise of the power of appointment, no matter how often, shall not be an exhaustion thereof. Upon the recordation of such Substitution of Trustee, the Trustee so appointed shall thereupon, without any further act or deed of conveyance, become fully vested with identically the same title and estate in and to the Property and with all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of its predecessor in the trust hereunder with like effect as if originally named as Trustee hereunder. Whenever in this Deed of Trust reference is made to Trustee, it shall be construed to mean each Person appointed as Trustee for the time being, whether original or successor in trust. All title, estate, rights, powers, trusts and duties granted to Trustee shall be in each Person appointed as Trustee so that any action hereunder by any Person appointed as Trustee shall for all purposes be deemed to be, and as effective as, the action of all Trustees.
Article IX

Section 9.1 Rights, Powers and Remedies Cumulative.
The Deed of Trust is a deed of trust and mortgage, and each right, power and remedy of Beneficiary or Trustee as provided for in this Deed of Trust, or in any of the other Loan Documents or now or hereafter existing by Law, shall be cumulative and concurrent and shall be in addition to every other right, power or remedy provided for in this Deed of Trust, or in any of the other Loan Documents or now or hereafter existing by Law, and the exercise or beginning of the exercise by Beneficiary or Trustee of any one or more of such rights, powers or remedies shall not preclude the simultaneous or later exercise by Beneficiary or Trustee of any or all such other rights, powers or remedies. In the event a foreclosure hereunder shall be commenced by Trustee, Beneficiary may at any time before the sale of the Property direct Trustee to abandon the sale, and may then institute suit for the collection of the Note and/or any other secured indebtedness, and for the foreclosure of this Deed of Trust. It is agreed that if Beneficiary should institute a suit for the collection of the Note or any other secured indebtedness and for the foreclosure of this Deed of Trust, Beneficiary may at any time before the entry of a final judgment in said suit dismiss the same, and require Trustee, to sell the Property in accordance with the provisions of this Deed of Trust.
Section 9.2 No Waiver by Beneficiary or Trustee.
No course of dealing or conduct by or among Beneficiary, Trustee and Grantor shall be effective to amend, modify or change any provisions of this Deed of Trust or the other Loan Documents. No failure or delay by Beneficiary or Trustee to insist upon the strict performance of any term, covenant or agreement of this Deed of Trust or of any of the other Loan Documents,
-22-
or to exercise any right, power or remedy consequent upon a breach thereof, shall constitute a waiver of any such term, covenant or agreement or of any such breach, or preclude Beneficiary or Trustee from exercising any such right, power or remedy at any later time or times. By accepting payment after the due date of any of the Obligations, neither Beneficiary nor Trustee shall be deemed to waive the right either to require prompt payment when due of all other Obligations, or to declare an Event of Default for failure to make prompt payment of any such other Obligations. Neither Grantor nor any other Person now or hereafter obligated for the payment of the whole or any part of the Obligations shall be relieved of such liability by reason of (a) the failure of Beneficiary to comply with any request of Grantor or of any other Person to take action to foreclose this Deed of Trust or otherwise enforce any of the provisions of this Deed of Trust, or (b) any agreement or stipulation between any subsequent owner or owners of the Property and Beneficiary, or (c) Beneficiarys extending the time of payment or modifying the terms of this Deed of Trust or any of the other Loan Documents without first having obtained the consent of Grantor or such other Person. Regardless of consideration, and without the necessity for any notice to or consent by the holder of any subordinate Lien on the Property, Beneficiary may release any Person at any time liable for any of the Obligations or any part of the security for the Obligations and may extend the time of payment or otherwise modify the terms of this Deed of Trust or any of the other Loan Documents without in any way impairing or affecting the Lien of this Deed of Trust or the priority of this Deed of Trust over any subordinate Lien. The holder of any subordinate Lien shall have no right to terminate any Lease regardless of whether or not such Lease is subordinate to this Deed of Trust. Beneficiary may resort to the security or collateral described in this Deed of Trust or any of the other Loan Documents in such order and manner as Beneficiary may elect in its sole discretion.
Section 9.3 Waivers and Agreements Regarding Remedies.
To the fullest extent Grantor may do so, under applicable law, Grantor hereby:
(a) agrees that it will not at any time plead, claim or take advantage of any Laws now or hereafter in force providing for any appraisement, valuation, stay, extension or redemption, and waives and releases all rights of redemption, valuation, appraisement, stay of execution, extension and notice of election to accelerate the Obligations;
(b) waives all rights to a marshalling of the assets of Grantor, including the Property, or to a sale in the inverse order of alienation in the event of a foreclosure of the Property, and agrees not to assert any right under any Law pertaining to the marshalling of assets, the sale in inverse order of alienation, the exemption of homestead, the administration of estates of decedents, or other matters whatsoever to defeat, reduce or affect the right of Beneficiary under the terms of this Deed of Trust to a sale of the Property without any prior or different resort for collection, or the right of Beneficiary to the payment of the Obligations out of the proceeds of sale of the Property in preference to every other claimant whatsoever;
(c) waives any right to bring or utilize any defense, counterclaim or setoff, other than one which denies the existence or sufficiency of the facts upon which any foreclosure action is grounded. If any defense, counterclaim or setoff, other than one permitted by the preceding clause, is timely raised in a foreclosure action, such defense, counterclaim or setoff shall be dismissed. If such defense, counterclaim or setoff is based on a Claim which could be
-23-
tried in an action for money damages, such Claim may be brought in a separate action which shall not thereafter be consolidated with the foreclosure action. The bringing of such separate action for money damages shall not be deemed to afford any grounds for staying the foreclosure action; and
(d) waives and relinquishes any and all rights and remedies which Grantor may have or be able to assert by reason of the provisions of any Laws pertaining to the rights and remedies of sureties.
Section 9.4 Successors and Assigns.
All of the grants, covenants, terms, provisions and conditions of this Deed of Trust shall run with the Land and shall apply to and bind the successors and assigns of Grantor (including any permitted subsequent owner of the Property), and inure to the benefit of Beneficiary, its successors and assigns and to the successors in trust of Trustee.
Section 9.5 No Warranty by Beneficiary.
By inspecting the Property or by accepting or approving anything required to be observed, performed or fulfilled by Grantor or to be given to Beneficiary or Trustee pursuant to this Deed of Trust or any of the other Loan Documents, Beneficiary or Trustee shall not be deemed to have warranted or represented the condition, sufficiency, legality, effectiveness or legal effect of the same, and such acceptance or approval shall not constitute any warranty or representation with respect thereto by Beneficiary or Trustee.
Section 9.6 Amendments.
This Deed of Trust may not be modified or amended except by an agreement in writing, signed by the party against whom enforcement of the change is sought.
Section 9.7 Severability.
In the event any one or more of the provisions of this Deed of Trust or any of the other Loan Documents shall for any reason be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, in whole or in part or in any other respect, or in the event any one or more of the provisions of the Loan Documents operates or would prospectively operate to invalidate this Deed of Trust or any of the other Loan Documents, then and in either of those events, at the option of Beneficiary, such provision or provisions only shall be deemed null and void and shall not affect the validity of the remaining obligations, and the remaining provisions of the Loan Documents shall remain operative and in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, prejudiced or disturbed thereby.
Section 9.8 Notices.
All Notices required or which any party desires to give hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be in writing and, unless otherwise specifically provided in such other Loan Document, shall be deemed sufficiently given or furnished if delivered by personal delivery, by nationally recognized overnight courier service or by certified United States mail,
-24-
postage prepaid, addressed to the party to whom directed at the applicable address specified in the Preamble to this Deed of Trust (unless changed by similar notice in writing given by the particular party whose address is to be changed) or by facsimile. Any Notice shall be deemed to have been given either at the time of personal delivery or, in the case of courier or mail, as of the date of first attempted delivery at the address and in the manner provided herein, or, in the case of facsimile, upon receipt; provided that service of a Notice required by any applicable statute shall be considered complete when the requirements of that statute are met. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no notice of change of address shall be effective except upon actual receipt. This Section shall not be construed in any way to affect or impair any waiver of notice or demand provided in this Deed of Trust or in any other Loan Document or to require giving of notice or demand to or upon any Person in any situation or for any reason.
Section 9.9 Joint and Several Liability.
If Grantor consists of two (2) or more Persons, the term Grantor shall also refer to all Persons signing this Deed of Trust as Grantor, and to each of them, and all of them are jointly and severally bound, obligated and liable hereunder. Trustee or Beneficiary may release, compromise, modify or settle with any of Grantor, in whole or in part, without impairing, lessening or affecting the obligations and liabilities of the others of Grantor hereunder or under the Note. Any of the acts mentioned aforesaid may be done without the approval or consent of, or notice to, any of Grantor. Section 12.29 of the Loan Agreement (the Joint Borrower Provisions) is by this reference incorporated herein in its entirety.
Section 9.10 Rules of Construction.
The words hereof, herein, hereunder, hereto, and other words of similar import refer to this Deed of Trust in its entirety. The terms agree and agreements mean and include covenant and covenants. The words include and including shall be interpreted as if followed by the words without limitation. The headings of this Deed of Trust are for convenience of reference only and shall not be considered a part hereof and are not in any way intended to define, limit or enlarge the terms hereof. All references (a) made in the neuter, masculine or feminine gender shall be deemed to have been made in all such genders, (b) made in the singular or plural number shall be deemed to have been made, respectively, in the plural or singular number as well, (c) to the Loan Documents are to the same as extended, amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time unless expressly indicated otherwise, (d) to the Land, Improvements, Personalty, Real Property or Property shall mean all or any portion of each of the foregoing, respectively, and (e) to Articles or Sections are to the respective Articles or Sections contained in this Deed of Trust unless expressly indicated otherwise.

Section 9.11 Governing Law.
This Deed of Trust shall be construed, governed and enforced in accordance with the Laws in effect from time to time in the State. It is the intent of Grantor and Beneficiary and all other parties to the Loan Documents to conform to and contract in strict compliance with applicable usury Law from time to time in effect. In no way, nor in any event or contingency (including but not limited to prepayment, default, demand for payment, or acceleration of the maturity of any obligation), shall the interest taken, reserved, contracted for, charged, chargeable, or received under this Deed of Trust, or otherwise, exceed the maximum nonusurious amount permitted by applicable Law (the Maximum Amount). If, from any possible construction of any document, interest would otherwise be payable in excess of the Maximum Amount, any such construction shall be subject to the provisions of this Section and shall ipso facto be automatically reformed and the interest payable shall be automatically reduced to the Maximum Amount, without the necessity of execution of any amendment or new document. Beneficiary shall ever receive anything of value which is characterized as interest under applicable Law and which would apart from this provision be in excess of the Maximum Amount, an amount equal to the amount which would have been excessive interest shall, without penalty, be applied to the reduction of the principal amount owing on the Obligations in the inverse order of its maturity and not to the payment of interest, or refunded to Grantor or the other payor thereof if and to the extent such amount which would have been excessive exceeds such unpaid principal. The right to accelerate maturity of the Note or any other Obligations does not include the right to accelerate any interest which has not otherwise accrued on the date of such acceleration, and does not intend to charge or receive any unearned interest in the event of acceleration. All interest paid or agreed to be paid to shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread throughout the full stated term (including any renewal or extension) of such indebtedness so that the amount of interest on account of such indebtedness does not exceed the Maximum Amount. As used in this Section, the term applicable Law shall mean the Laws of the State where the Property is located or where the Obligations are is payable, or the federal Laws of the United States applicable to this transaction, whichever Laws allow the greatest interest, as such Laws now exist or may be changed or amended or come into effect in the future.
Section 9.12 Entire Agreement.
The Loan Documents constitute the entire understanding and agreement between Grantor and Beneficiary with respect to the transactions arising in connection with the Loan, and supersede all prior written or oral understandings and agreements between Grantor and Beneficiary with respect to the matters addressed in the Loan Documents. In particular, and without limitation, the terms of any commitment by Beneficiary to make the Loan are merged into the Loan Documents. Except as incorporated in writing into the Loan Documents, there are no representations, understandings, stipulations, agreements or promises, oral or written, with respect to the matters addressed in the Loan Documents.
THE WRITTEN LOAN DOCUMENTS REPRESENT THE FINAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE PARTIES AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF
-26-
PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES.
THERE ARE NO UNWRITTEN ORAL AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE PARTIES.
