The entering upon and taking possession of the Trust Property, the taking of any action described in this Deed of Trust, the collection of the rents, issues and profits and the application of the rents, issues, and profits as established above, will not cure or waive any default or notice of default or invalidate any act done in response to the default or pursuant to the notice of default and, notwithstanding the continuance in possession of the Trust Property or the collection, receipt and application of rents, issues or profits, the Beneficiary will be entitled to exercise every right provided for in any of the Loan Documents or by law upon occurrence of any Event of Default, including the right to exercise the power of sale conferred by this Deed of Trust;

subject to the Uniform Commercial Code of the State of California (UCC), treating the remainder of the Trust Property as real property.
(B) Beneficiary may cause any sale or other disposition to be conducted immediately following the expiration of any cure period specified in this Deed of Trust, or immediately upon the expiration of any redemption or reinstatement period required by law, or Beneficiary may delay any sale or other disposition for any period of time as Beneficiary deems to be in its best interest. Should Beneficiary desire that more than one sale or other disposition be conducted, Beneficiary may, at its option, cause it to be conducted simultaneously or successively, on the same day or at different days or times and in any order as Beneficiary may deem to be in its best interests.
(ii) As to any part of the Trust Property that is subject to the UCC:
(A) If Beneficiary elects to cause any of the Trust Property which is subject to the UCC to be disposed of or sold, Beneficiary may at its discretion dispose of any applicable part of the Trust Property in any order or manner permitted by the UCC, or in accordance with any other remedy provided by applicable law, regardless of whether the property is located on or about the Premises. Any disposition may be conducted by an employee or agent of Beneficiary or Trustee. Trustor and Beneficiary will be eligible to purchase any part or all of the sale property at any such disposition, which may be either public or private as Beneficiary may elect. Beneficiary will also have the rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC or otherwise available at law or in equity.
(B) Under the power of sale granted by this Deed of Trust, Beneficiary may, in its discretion and without regard to the adequacy of its security, elect to proceed against any or all of the Trust Property (including personal property and fixtures) in any manner permitted under Section 9501(4)(a) of the UCC; and if the Beneficiary elects to proceed in the manner permitted under Section 9501(4)(a)(ii) of the UCC, the power of sale will be exercisable with respect to all or any of the Trust Property (whether constituting personal property or Improvements covered by this Deed of Trust, as designated by Beneficiary, and the Trustee is authorized and empowered to conduct any sale of any Real Trust Property (including personal property and fixtures) in accordance with the procedures applicable to the sale of real property.
(C) Where the Trust Property consists of real property and personal property, any reinstatement of the obligation secured by this Deed of Trust following default and an election by Beneficiary to accelerate the maturity of the obligation (which reinstatement is made by the Trustor or any
9
other person or entity permitted to exercise the right of reinstatement under Section 2924c of the California Civil Code or any successor statute), will not prohibit, in accordance with the terms of California Commercial Code Section 9501(4)(c)(iii), Beneficiary from conducting a sale or other disposition of any personal property or fixtures or from otherwise proceeding against or continuing to proceed against any personal property or fixtures in any manner permitted by the UCC. No reinstatement will invalidate, rescind, or otherwise affect any sale, disposition, or other proceeding held, conducted, or instituted with respect to any personal property or fixtures prior to the reinstatement or pending at the time of the reinstatement.

Beneficiary will give the Trustor at least five days prior written notice of the time and place of any public sale or other disposition of the property or of the time of or after which any private sale or other intended disposition is to be made, and if any notice is sent to the Trustor, the Trustor acknowledges that it will constitute reasonable notice to the Trustor.
(iii) If Beneficiary elects to sell all or part of the Trust Property, Beneficiary or Trustee will give notice of default and election to sell as may then be required by applicable law. Thereafter, upon the expiration of any applicable time and the giving of notice, and without the necessity of any demand on the Trustor, Trustee, at the time and place specified in the notice of sale, will sell all or any portion of the Trust Property specified by Beneficiary, at public auction to the highest bidder for cash in lawful money of the United States, payable at time of sale. Trustee may, and upon request of Beneficiary will, from time to time, postpone any sale by public announcement at the time and place noticed or fixed by the previous postponement. If the property consists of several lots or parcels, Beneficiary may designate the order in which the lots or parcels will be offered for sale or sold. The Trustor expressly waives its right to direct the order of sale.
(iv) The acknowledgment of the receipt of the purchase money contained in any deed or instrument of conveyance will be sufficient to discharge the grantee from all obligations to see to the proper application of the consideration given. The purchaser at any sale may disaffirm any easement granted or rental or lease contract made in violation of any provision of this Deed of Trust, and may take
10
immediate possession of the Trust Property free from, and despite the terms of, the grant of easement and rental or lease contract.
(v) If the Trust Property consists of several lots, parcels or items of property, Beneficiary may, in its discretion, designate the order in which the lots, parcels or items will be offered for sale or sold or elect to sell all lots, parcels or items through a single sale, or through two or more successive sales, or in any other manner Beneficiary deems in its best interest. If Beneficiary desires that more than one sale or other disposition of the Trust Property be conducted, Beneficiary may, at its option, cause the sales to be conducted simultaneously, or successively, on the same day, or at different days or times and in any order as Beneficiary may deem to be in its best interests, and no sale will terminate or otherwise affect the lien of this Deed of Trust on any unsold part of the Trust Property until the Obligations have been fully paid. If Beneficiary elects to dispose of the Trust Property through more than one sale, the Trustor agrees to pay the costs and expenses of each sale and/or of any judicial proceedings where the sale is made, including reasonable compensation to Trustee and Beneficiary, their agents and counsel, and to pay all expenses, liabilities and advances made or incurred by Trustee with the sale or sales, together with interest on all advances made by Trustee at the Default Rate. Any person (including the Trustor, Trustee or Beneficiary) may purchase at any sale, and Beneficiary will have the right to purchase at any sale by crediting upon the bid price the amount of all or any part of the Obligations, as specified below. Beneficiary, upon any purchase, will acquire good title to the properties so purchased, free of the lien of this Deed of Trust and free of all rights of redemption in the Trustor and free of all liens and encumbrances subordinate to this Deed of Trust. Upon any sale, the Trustee will 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 the purchaser or purchasers will be let into immediate possession. The recitals in any deed or deeds of fact, such as default, the giving of notice of default, and notice of sale, and other facts affecting the regularity or validity of sale or disposition, will be conclusive proof of the truth of the facts and any deed or deeds will be conclusive against all persons as to these facts.
(vi) Nothing in this Deed of Trust dealing with foreclosure procedures or specifying particular actions to be taken by Beneficiary or by Trustee or any similar officer in connection with a foreclosure sale will be deemed to contradict or add to the requirements and procedures now or in the future specified by California law, and any inconsistency will be resolved in favor of California law applicable at the time of foreclosure.
(vii) Trustee covenants faithfully to perform and fulfill the trusts created by this Deed of Trust; and, to the extent permissible by law, waives any statutory fee and agrees to accept instead reasonable compensation for any services rendered.
11
(viii) Upon any sale made under this Deed of Trust, whether made under the power of sale or by virtue of judicial proceedings or of a judgment or decree of foreclosure and sale, Beneficiary may bid for and acquire all or part of the Trust Property and, in lieu of paying cash, may make settlement for the purchase price by crediting upon the indebtedness or other sums secured by this Deed of Trust the net sales price after deducting the expenses of sale and the costs of the action and any other sums that Trustee or Beneficiary is authorized to deduct under this Deed of Trust. If it does so, this Deed of Trust, the Note and other documents evidencing the Obligations will be presented to the person or persons conducting the sale so that the amount so used or applied may be credited to the Obligations; and
(d) Exercise any other rights or remedies that may now or in the future be available to the Beneficiary under this Deed of Trust or the other Loan Documents or pursuant to applicable law or in equity.
15. Power of Sale. If the Beneficiary elects to sell the Trustors interest in the Trust Property by exercise of the power of sale contained in this Deed of Trust, the Beneficiary will notify the Trustee in the manner then required by law.
(a) Upon receipt of written notice from the Beneficiary and at the direction of the Beneficiary, the Trustee will cause to be given, recorded, published, and delivered all notices of default and/or notices of sale as may then be required by law and/or by this Deed of Trust. The Trustee will, only at the direction of the Beneficiary and without demand on the Trustor, after any time as may then be required by law after notice of default and/or notice of sale having been given as required by law, sell the Trust Property at the time and place of sale fixed in the notice of sale, either as a whole, or in separate lots or parcels or items as the Beneficiary will deem expedient, and in any order as it may determine, at public auction to the highest bidder for cash in lawful money of the United States payable at the time of sale, or as otherwise may then be required by law. The Trustee will deliver to the purchaser or purchasers of the Trust Property its good and sufficient deed or deeds conveying the property so sold, but without any covenant or warranty, express, or implied. The recitals in the deed of any matters or facts will be conclusive proof of the truthfulness of the facts. Any person, including, without limitation, the Trustor, the Trustee or the Beneficiary, may purchase at the sale. The Beneficiary may credit bid all or any portion of the Obligations at the sale.
(b) As may be permitted by law, after deducting all costs, fees, and expenses of the Trustee and of this Trust, including without limitation costs of evidence of title in connection with sale and any attorneys fees and expenses incurred by the Trustee, the Trustee will apply the proceeds of sale: (i) first, to payment of all costs, fees and expenses, including attorneys fees and expenses incurred by the Beneficiary in exercising the power of sale or foreclosing this Deed of Trust; and (ii) second, to satisfaction of the Obligations.
12
(c) The Trustee may in the manner provided by law postpone sale of all or any portion of the Trust Property.
16. Remedies Not Exclusive. The Beneficiary will be entitled to enforce payment and performance of any Obligations and to exercise all rights and powers under this Deed of Trust, any Loan Documents, or any laws now or in the future in force, notwithstanding some or all of the Obligations which may now or in the future be otherwise secured, whether by mortgage, deed of trust, pledge, lien, assignment. Or otherwise. Neither the acceptance of this Deed of Trust nor its enforcement, whether by court action or pursuant to the power of sale or other powers contained in this Deed of Trust, will prejudice or in any manner affect the Beneficiarys right to realize upon or enforce any other security now or in the future held by the Beneficiary. Beneficiary will be entitled to enforce this Deed of Trust and any other security now or in the future held by the Beneficiary in any order and manner as it may in its absolute discretion determine. No remedy conferred upon or reserved to the Beneficiary by this Deed of Trust is intended to be exclusive of any other remedy given under this Deed of Trust or now or in the future existing at law or in equity or by statute. Every power or remedy given by any of the Loan Documents to the Beneficiary, or to which the Beneficiary may be otherwise entitled, may be exercised, concurrently or independently, from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient by the Beneficiary. The Beneficiary may pursue inconsistent remedies. The acceptance by the Beneficiary of any sum after the amounts are due will not constitute a waiver of the right either to require prompt payment, when due, of all other sums secured by this Deed of Trust or to declare a default as provided under this Deed of Trust. The acceptance by the Beneficiary of any sum in an amount less than the sum then due will be deemed an acceptance on account only and only on the condition (whether expressed or not) that Beneficiarys acceptance will not constitute a waiver of the obligation of the Trustor to pay the entire sum then due. Any failure of the Trustor to pay the entire sum then due will be and continue to be an Event of Default notwithstanding any acceptance of any lesser amount on account. Until all of the amounts due under this Deed of Trust or any of the other Loan Documents are paid in full, the Beneficiary and Trustee, notwithstanding either of their acceptance of any amounts on account or any future amounts on account, are entitled to exercise any and all rights described in this Deed of Trust, and none of those rights will be impaired or eliminated by any acceptance of any amounts on account. Consent by the Beneficiary to any action or inaction of the Trustor which is subject to consent or approval of the Beneficiary will not be deemed a waiver of the right to require the consent or approval to future or successive actions or inactions.
17. Possession of Trust Estate. If a trustees sale or foreclosure sale is held under this Deed of Trust and, after the time of sale, the Trustor occupies all or any part of the portion of the Trust Property so sold, the Trustor will immediately become the tenant of the purchaser at the sale, the tenancy will be a tenancy from day to day, terminable at the will of either tenant or landlord, at a reasonable rental per day based upon the value of the portion of the Trust Property so occupied. All rental to be due and payable daily to the purchaser. An action of unlawful detainer will be available if the tenant holds over after a demand in writing for possession of the Trust Property. This Deed of Trust or any trustees deed executed and/or delivered in connection with any trustees sale or foreclosure will constitute a lease and agreement under which the
13
tenants possession arose and continued. Nothing contained in this Deed of Trust will be construed to constitute the Beneficiary as a mortgagee in possession in the absence of its taking actual possession of the Trust Property pursuant to the powers granted in this Deed of Trust.
18. Assignment of Rents. All of the existing and future leases and all rights to the Trust Property (or any part) assigned absolutely to Beneficiary as further security for the payment of the indebtedness and performance of the Obligations. To enforce Beneficiarys rights under this Deed of Trust, Trustor also assigns to Beneficiary all rights to exercise any landlord liens and any other remedial rights to which a landlord may be entitled under California law. When requested by Beneficiary from time to time, and within the time as Beneficiary may reasonably require, Trustor will execute, deliver, and record, and will cause any lessee, tenant, or occupant (collectively, a Tenant) of Trustor designated by Beneficiary to execute, deliver, and record separate lease assignments covering any or all of the leases that may affect any part or all of the Trust Property. All separate lease assignments will be in a form as Beneficiary, in its sole discretion, may require. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Beneficiary may require any Tenant to subordinate the Tenants rights to the lien of this Deed of Trust. In no event will Beneficiary be required to give non-disturbance or similar commitments to any Tenant. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Trustor authorizes and directs the Tenants of the Trust Property to make, upon written notice from Beneficiary, all payments required under any leases directly to the Beneficiary as they become due. Trustor relieves all Tenants from any liability to Trustor by reason of any payments being made to Beneficiary. Beneficiary may apply all rents collected by Beneficiary in any manner Beneficiary elects, in its sole discretion. Provided that no Event of Default will have occurred, Trustor will be entitled to collect and use all rents and/or payments.
19. Receiver. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Beneficiary, in addition to all rights and remedies available at law and/or under this Deed of Trust, will be entitled, at any time and without notice and without regard to the adequacy of any security, to enter upon and take possession of the Trust Property (or any part). Trustor will upon demand peaceably surrender possession of the Trust Property to Beneficiary or the receiver. Beneficiarys entry may be made by Beneficiarys agents, attorneys, or employees or by a court-appointed receiver. Beneficiary, in its name and/or in the name of Trustor, may operate and maintain all or any portion of the Trust Property to the extent Beneficiary deems advisable, and Trustor agrees that Beneficiary will be entitled to do and perform any acts that Beneficiary may deem necessary or proper to conserve the value of the Trust Property, including the ability to sue for and otherwise collect and receive all rents, issues, and profits (including those past due and unpaid as well as those later accruing) and the ability to rent or lease the Trust Property (or any portion) to persons on terms and conditions approved by Beneficiary in its sole discretion. Trustor further agrees that Beneficiary also may take possession of and use any and all personal property contained in the Trust Property or used by Trustor in the rental or leasing of the Trust Property (or any part). Beneficiary may apply all rents, issues, and profits collected or received by it to the payment of costs and expenses incurred in the operation of the Trust Property or to protect and preserve its security, or Beneficiary may permit any part of all of these moneys to be released by Beneficiary
14
at its sole option. The expense (including receivers fees, if any, and compensation to any agent appointed by Beneficiary, and attorney fees, costs, and disbursements) incurred in taking possession and effecting collection or attempting to take possession and effecting collection, will be deemed an expense of this Deed of Trust to be paid by Trustor and secured by this Deed of Trust. Neither the entering upon and taking possession of the Trust Property, nor the collection of rents, issues, and profits, nor the application or release of these amounts will cure or waive any default or notice of sale or invalidate any act done pursuant to the notice of sale. In dealing with the Trust Property or any related personal property as a beneficiary in possession, Beneficiary will be without any liability, charge, or obligation to Trustor other than for willful misconduct, and all losses, costs, and expenses incurred by Beneficiary will be advances repayable as established in Paragraph 12 above. Trustor specifically agrees that the appointment of a receiver may be sought and pursued concurrently with the exercise of any other remedies of Beneficiary, including exercise of Trustees power of sale.
20. Condemnation.
(a) All judgments, awards of damages, and settlements made as a result of each of the following (collectively, a Condemnation) are assigned to and will be paid to Beneficiary: (i) any condemnation or other proceeding for public use (or any sale in lieu of condemnation); (ii) any private trespass to the Trust Property; and (iii) any eminent domain proceeding. Beneficiary will have the right, but not the obligation, to participate in any proceedings, and Trustor will not settle or otherwise resolve any proceedings or execute or deliver any deed without the prior written consent of Beneficiary, whose consent will not be unreasonably withheld.
(b) If the Condemnation affects less than substantially all of the Trust Property and further provided that legal access to the Trust Property has not been affected or impaired (Partial Condemnation), the proceeds of any judgment, award, or settlement will be held, applied, and disbursed by Beneficiary to the restoration of the Trust Property if requested by Trustor. If Trustor does not make this request within 10 days of the Partial Condemnation, the proceeds will be applied in satisfaction of any amounts secured by this Deed of Trust. Prior to any disbursement pursuant to the preceding sentence, Trustor, at its cost, must supply Beneficiary with a current ALTA survey of the Trust Property indicating the area lost, an updated appraisal for the Trust Property showing an appraised value acceptable to Beneficiary, and any endorsement or update to Beneficiarys lenders policy of title insurance.
(c) If a Condemnation other than a partial Condemnation, Beneficiary will be solely entitled to any award, judgment, or settlement, and Trustor agrees to immediately deliver to Beneficiary all proceeds of any award, judgment, or settlement that may be received by Trustor. Beneficiary, at its option, may apply any proceeds to the satisfaction of any amounts secured by this Deed of Trust. Neither the application nor the release of any proceeds will cure or waive any default or notice of sale or invalidate any act done pursuant to the notice of sale.
15
(d) TRUSTOR HEREBY UNCONDITIONALLY AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHTS IT MAY HAVE UNDER CALIFORNIA CODE OF CIVIL PROCEDURE SECTION 1265.225(a) OR ANY SUCCESSOR STATUTE PROVIDING FOR ALLOCATION OF CONDEMNATION PROCEEDS BETWEEN A PROPERTY OWNER AND A LIENHOLDER.
INITIALS: SD / DC /
21. Bankruptcy.
(a) If any action, proceeding, application, motion or notice will be commenced or filed in respect of all or any part of the Trust Estate, in connection with any case under the Bankruptcy Code or any other applicable federal or state law relating to relief for debtors, Beneficiary will have, and is hereby granted, the right, but not the obligation, to the exclusion of Trustor exercisable upon notice from Beneficiary to Trustor, to conduct and control any litigation (including, without limitation, the right to file and prosecute any proofs of claim, complaints, motions, applications, notices and other documents) with counsel of Beneficiarys choice. Beneficiary may proceed, in its own name or in the name of Trustor, in connection with any litigation, and Trustor agrees to execute any and all powers, authorizations, consents and other documents required by Beneficiary in connection therewith. Upon request by Beneficiary, Trustor will pay to Beneficiary, or to any other person or persons that Beneficiary may designate, all costs, expenses and liabilities (including, without limitation, attorneys fees and court costs) paid or incurred by Beneficiary in connection with the prosecution or conduct of any proceedings, together with interest thereon at the Default Rate from the date paid or incurred by Beneficiary until the date so paid to, or as directed by, Beneficiary. Trustor will not, without the prior written consent of Beneficiary, commence any action, suit, proceeding or case, or file any application or motion under the Bankruptcy Code or any other applicable federal or state law relating to relief for debtors.
(b) Trustor will promptly after obtaining knowledge of a petition under the Bankruptcy Code, notify Beneficiary of any filing of a petition under the Bankruptcy Code. Trustor will give written notice of the filing to Beneficiary, establishing any information available to Trustor as to the date of filing, the court in which the petition was filed, and the relief sought in the filing. Trustor will promptly deliver to Beneficiary, following receipt, any and all notices, summonses, pleadings, applications, and other documents received by Trustor in connection with any petition and proceeding related to a petition under the Bankruptcy Code.
22. Modification Without Release. Without affecting the liability of Trustor, any guarantor under any of the Loan Documents, if any, or any other person (except any person expressly released by Beneficiary in writing) for payment of any indebtedness or for performance of any obligation secured by or contained in this Deed of Trust, and without affecting the rights of Beneficiary with respect to any security not expressly released in writing,
16
Beneficiary, at any time and from time to time, either before or after maturity of the Note, and without notice or consent, may:
(a) Release any guarantor or other person liable for payment of all or any part of the indebtedness or for performance of any obligation;
(b) Make any agreement extending the time or otherwise altering the terms of payment of all or any part of the indebtedness, or modifying or waiving any obligation, or subordinating, modifying, or otherwise dealing with the lien or charge of this Deed of Trust;
(c) Exercise or refrain from exercising or waive any right available to Beneficiary;
(d) Accept additional security of any kind; and
(e) Release or otherwise deal with any property, real or personal, securing the indebtedness, including all or any part of the Trust Property.
23. Other Security. If the indebtedness secured by this Deed of Trust is now or in the future further secured by chattel mortgages, security interests, deeds of trust, pledges, contracts of guaranty, or other additional securities, Beneficiary may, at its option, exhaust its security under this Deed of Trust or any future security either concurrently or independently and in the order as it may determine. Beneficiary may apply any proceeds received to the amounts secured by this Deed of Trust without affecting the status of, or waiving any right to exhaust, all or any other security, and without waiving any breach or default or any right of power, whether contained in this Deed of Trust or in any other security. Trustor waives any right or privilege that it or its creditors might otherwise have to require Trustee and/or Beneficiary to proceed against the assets encumbered by this Deed of Trust or by any other security documents in any particular order or fashion under any legal or equitable doctrines or principles, and Trustor further agrees that upon a default, Trustee and/or Beneficiary may proceed to exercise any or all remedies with regard to any or all assets encumbered by this Deed of Trust or by any other security documents in the manner and order as Beneficiary in its sole discretion may determine.
24. Partial Payment. Acceptance by Beneficiary of any sum in payment, or part payment, of any indebtedness secured by this Deed of Trust after the amount is due or after the recording of a notice of sale will not constitute a waiver of the right to require prompt payment, when due, of all other sums so secured, nor will the acceptance cure or waive any remaining default or invalidate any sale held pursuant to notice of sale for any remaining default, or prejudice any of the rights of Beneficiary under this Deed of Trust.
25. Resignation. Trustee may resign by mailing or delivering notice to Beneficiary and Trustor, and Beneficiary may, at any time Beneficiary may desire, appoint another Trustee in place of Trustee or any successor. Trustor will cause this Deed of Trust to be duly recorded in the Recorders Office of the County in which the Trust Property is situated.
17
26. Irrevocable. The trusts created by this Deed of Trust are irrevocable.
27. Water Rights. Any stock in a water, irrigation, or water storage company assigned to Beneficiary in connection with this transaction may be registered in the name of Trustee or Beneficiary as pledge, and held by either as Beneficiary may determine. Whether or not the stock is appurtenant to the Trust Property (or any part) and regardless of how the stock is registered or held, Trustor and Beneficiary agree that, if a default, Trustee may sell the stock (or any part) and any other shares of stock subject to this Deed of Trust, together with and at the time of any Trustees sale of the Trust Property (or any part). With respect to the sale of the stock, Trustor waives compliance with any and all statutory requirements concerning the sale of pledged property and agrees that the provisions of law and of this Deed of Trust governing the manner, notice, and conditions of a Trustees sale of the Trust Property apply to the sale of the stock by Trustee.
28. Mineral Rights. As additional security to Beneficiary, Trustor further assigns and transfers all damages, royalties, and revenues of every kind, nature, and description whatsoever that Trustor may be entitled to receive from any person, company, or corporation owning or having or acquiring a right to the oil, gas, or mineral rights and reservations of the Trust Property. Beneficiary will have the right to receive and apply the damages, royalties, and revenues to the indebtedness either before or after any default, and Beneficiary may demand, sue for, and recover any payments (but will not be required to do so).
29. Waivers. Trustor waives the pleading of any statute of limitations as a defense to any of the Obligations to the fullest extent permissible by law. In any action by Beneficiary to recover a deficiency judgment for any balance due under the Note after a foreclosure of this Deed of Trust or in any action to recover or compel the performance of the Obligations, Trustor acknowledges and agrees that the successful bid amount made at any judicial or non-judicial foreclosure sale, if any, will be deemed conclusively to constitute the fair market value of the Trust Property, will be binding against Trustor in any proceeding seeking to determine or contest the fair market value of the Trust Property, and will be the preferred alternative means of determining and establishing the fair market value of the Trust Property. Trustor waives any right to have the fair market value of the Trust Property determined by judge or jury in any action seeking a deficiency judgment or any action on the Obligations, including any hearing to determine fair market value.
30. Invalidity. If any one or more of the provisions of this Deed of Trust or the applicability of any provision to a specific situation are held to be invalid or unenforceable, the provision will be modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it or its application valid and enforceable, and the validity and enforceability of all other provisions of this Deed of Trust and all other applications of the provisions will not be affected.
31. Statements. Trustor will pay Beneficiarys and/or Trustees reasonable charges, to the maximum amount permitted by law, for any statement regarding or relating to the Obligations that have been requested by Trustor or on its behalf.
18
32. Legal. If it becomes necessary for the Beneficiary to employ legal counsel or to take legal action to collect the indebtedness, to enforce any provision, or to protect any of Beneficiarys rights under this Deed of Trust (including any protection of Beneficiarys rights under any proceedings under Title 11 of the United States Code), Trustor agrees to pay to Beneficiary, in addition to taxable costs of any legal proceeding or action, attorney fees in a reasonable amount and all costs of preparation and conduct of the proceedings, including costs of title searches and title policy commitments, all of which will be a lien upon the Trust Property and secured by this Deed of Trust.
33. No Offset. No offset or claim that Trustor now has or may in the future have against Beneficiary will relieve Trustor from paying installments or performing any other obligation in or secured by this Deed of Trust.
34. Corrections. Trustor will, upon request of the Trustee, promptly correct any defect or error which may be discovered in the contents of this Deed of Trust or in its execution or acknowledgment, and will execute, acknowledge, and deliver further instruments and do further acts as may be necessary or as may be reasonably requested by the Trustee or by the Beneficiary to carry out more effectively the purposes of this Deed of Trust and to perfect and maintain the lien and security interest created by this Deed of Trust.
35. Security Interest. Trustor agrees that the Obligations are further secured by security interests in all fixtures, equipment, and other property covered by the California Uniform Commercial Code, if any, that are used upon, in, or about the Trust Property (or any part) or that are used by Trustor or any other person in connection with the Trust Property. Trustor grants to Beneficiary a valid and effective security interest in all the personal property, together with all replacements, additions, and proceeds. Except for the security interest granted by Trustor under this Deed of Trust, Trustor agrees that, without the written consent of Beneficiary, no other security interest will be created under the provisions of the Uniform Commercial Code or the California Commercial Code and no lease will be entered into with respect to any goods, fixtures, equipment, appliances, or articles of personal property now attached to or used or to be attached to or used in connection with the Trust Property. Trustor agrees that all property of every nature and description covered by the lien and charge of this Deed of Trust together with all the property and interests covered by this security interest are encumbered as a unit, and upon a default by Trustor, all of the Trust Property, at Beneficiarys option, may be foreclosed upon or sold in the same or different proceedings or at the same or different time, subject to the provisions of applicable law. The filing of any financing statement relating to any the property or rights or interests will not be construed to diminish or alter any of Beneficiarys rights or priorities under this Deed of Trust. This Deed of Trust constitutes a financing statement and, to the extent required because portions of the Property may constitute fixtures, this Deed of Trust is to be filed in the office where a mortgage for the Premises would be recorded.
19
36. Hazardous Materials.
(a) Hazardous Materials will mean: (i) any chemical, material, or substance defined or included in the definition of hazardous substances, hazardous materials, toxic substances, or words of similar import under any Hazardous Materials Laws; (ii) any oil, petroleum, flammable substances, explosives, asbestos; or (iii) any other chemical, material or substance which may or could pose a hazard to health or safety.
(b) Trustor represents and warrants that no Hazardous Materials have been, are, or will be used, generated, stored, or disposed of on, under, or about the Trust Property; and (b) the Trust Property and all past, present, and future uses of the Trust Property were, are, and will be in compliance with all relevant local, state, and federal laws, rules, regulations, policies, ordinances, court decisions, settlement orders, and consent decrees relating to the protection of the environment on, under, or about the Trust Property (collectively, the Hazardous Materials Laws). At Trustors expense, Trustor will comply with and will cause any tenants or occupants of the Trust Property to comply with the Hazardous Materials Laws. If any Hazardous Materials are found to exist on, under, or about the Trust Property, Trustor will at Trustors expense take all necessary and appropriate remedial action that Beneficiary or any relevant authority will require. Trustor will immediately advise Beneficiary in writing of any governmental or regulatory communications or proposed or instituted actions with regard to Hazardous Materials and the Trust Property, and will immediately provide Beneficiary with copies of any written communications to and from the authorities. Upon any default under this Deed of Trust, Beneficiary will have the right, at Trustors expense, to obtain or require Trustor to obtain an environmental survey or study of the Trust Property from a qualified independent environmental engineer, all to the satisfaction of Beneficiary.
(c) To induce Beneficiary to make the loan secured by this Deed of Trust, Trustor agrees to indemnify, defend, and hold Beneficiary and Trustee harmless on demand for, from, and against any liability, loss, costs, damages, and expenses (including attorney fees) which Beneficiary or Trustee may sustain in any way related to any Hazardous Materials on, under, or about the Trust Property. This indemnity will survive any foreclosure, trustees sale, or deed in lieu of the Trust Property, will benefit any foreclosure purchaser, and will not be subject to any otherwise applicable statutory or contractual anti-deficiency limitation or nonrecourse provision.
(d) The indemnity provided in this Deed of Trust for Hazardous Materials is intended to be in addition to, and not in lieu, limitation, or modification of, any separate environmental indemnity contained in any of the other Loan Documents.
(e) As provided in California Code of Civil Procedure Section 726.5, Beneficiary may waive its lien against the Trust Property or any portion thereof, to the extent such property is found to be environmentally impaired as defined therein, and to exercise any and all rights and remedies of an unsecured creditor against Trustor and all
20
of Trustors assets and property for the recovery of any deficiency and any and all costs, damages, expenses, fees, penalties, fines, judgments, indemnification payments to third parties, and other out-of-pocket costs or expenses actually incurred by Beneficiary or advanced by Beneficiary, including seeking an attachment order under California Code of Civil Procedure Section 483.010. Beneficiary and Trustor each represents and warrants for itself that it has no actual knowledge of any release of any Hazardous Substance (as defined in Section 726.5) on, to or under the Trust Property. As between Beneficiary and Trustor, for purposes of California Code of Civil Procedure Section 726.5, Trustor shall have the burden of proving that Trustor or any related party (or any affiliate or agent of Trustor or any related party) did not cause or contribute to, and was not in any way negligent in permitting, any release or threatened release of the Hazardous Materials.
37. Impounds. Upon and during the continuance of an Event of Default and then only following Beneficiarys written demand therefore, Trustor, on a monthly basis, will deposit with Beneficiary, in addition to any other required payments under the Note, an amount sufficient to enable Beneficiary to pay before delinquency all taxes, assessments, ground rents, and insurance premiums due on the Trust Property. Trustors installments will be equal to the estimated amounts of the payments next due (as estimated by Beneficiary in its good faith), less all installments already paid, divided by the number of months that are to elapse before one month prior to the date when the payments are due. If the amounts paid to Beneficiary under the provisions of this paragraph are insufficient to discharge the obligation of Trustor for the actual amount of the payments, Trustor will immediately pay to Beneficiary upon demand the additional sums as may be required to fully pay and discharge these items. All moneys paid may, at Beneficiarys option: (i) be held by Beneficiary to pay taxes, assessments, ground rents, and insurance before delinquency; or (ii) be credited directly to interest and/or principal due upon the indebtedness secured by this Deed of Trust. Upon payment by Beneficiary of any taxes, assessments, ground rents, or insurance premiums, the amount paid will be added to the principal of the indebtedness secured by this Deed of Trust unless paid from the impounded funds. Deposits made under this paragraph may be commingled with Beneficiarys general funds, and Beneficiary will have no liability to Trustor for any interest on the deposits. Nothing in this Paragraph 37 will be deemed to release Trustor from the obligation to pay taxes, assessments, ground rents, or insurance premiums to the extent these payments are in excess of those impounded by Beneficiary. All amounts deposited by Trustor under this Paragraph 37 are assigned by Trustor to Beneficiary as additional security for the Obligations.
38. Transfers.
(a) Any actual or attempted sale, transfer, assignment, encumbrance, lease, conveyance, lease with option to purchase any part, right, title, or interest in the Trust Property, whether legal or equitable, will constitute a Transfer.
(b) Permitted Transfers means (i) the transfer of shares in Trustor, and (ii) any Permitted Liens. Beneficiarys consent is not required for Permitted Transfers.
21
(c) All Transfers (other than Permitted Transfers) are subject to Beneficiarys prior written approval, which approval may be granted or conditioned in Beneficiarys sole and absolute discretion, and any Transfer (other than a Permitted Transfer) that is not so approved by Beneficiary will be a Prohibited Transfer. Except as provided below, Prohibited Transfers include the transfer of any ownership, voting, or membership interest in Trustor or its general partner.
(d) In addition to any other right or remedy available to Beneficiary, Beneficiary may void any Prohibited Transfer.
(e) If any Transfer is effected, whether or not Beneficiary consents, Beneficiary, in addition to any other remedies provided in this Deed of Trust, may require that a transfer fee be paid to Beneficiary prior to the sale, transfer, assignment, encumbrance, conveyance, or lease and may further increase the rate of interest payable on the unpaid principal balance of the Note. Consent to any one Transfer will not be deemed to be consent to any other Transfer, and no consent will constitute a commitment to subordinate the lien of this Deed of Trust to any interest created by the Transfer.
39. Authority. Trustor and each signatory who signs on the Trustors behalf jointly and severally represent and warrant that: (i) Trustor is a duly formed and validly existing corporation, partnership, limited partnership, or limited liability company, as applicable; (ii) Trustor has all requisite power and authority to enter into and perform under this Deed of Trust; (iii) Trustors execution and delivery of this Deed of Trust and its performance under this Deed of Trust will not violate Trustors organizational documents or any other agreement to which Trustor is a party; and (iv) this Deed of Trust and the Obligations are the valid and enforceable obligations of Trustor.
40. Change of Law. If, after the date of recordation of this Deed of Trust, the United States of America or the State of California or any other governmental entity enacts a law or regulation which: (i) changes, in any material and adverse way, the taxation of this Deed of Trust as to Beneficiary; (ii) deducts from the value of the Trust Property, for the purposes of taxation, the value of any lien on the Trust Property; or (iii) impose a tax, directly or indirectly, on Beneficiary on this Deed of Trust, the Note, or any sums due and payable under either or both, Beneficiary may declare all sums secured by this Deed of Trust to be due and payable in full within not less than 60 days. Beneficiarys declaration must be made by written notice to Trustor. The foregoing declaration by Beneficiary will be ineffective, however, if Trustor is permitted under these laws to pay the tax and if, prior to the date of election is to be effective, Trustor does pay the tax levied or assessed.
41. Other Encumbrances. Trustor will pay or perform before delinquency all obligations under any prior or subordinate mortgage, deed of trust, agreement of sale, or any other lien or encumbrance encumbering the Property (collectively called an Encumbrance). Without the prior written consent of Beneficiary, Trustor will not consent to or agree to the increase in the principal amount of any Encumbrance or to any extension of time for payment of the Encumbrance. If any Encumbrance is in default for any reason, Beneficiary may cure the
22
default without notice, and the cost of curing the default, with interest at the default rate of interest specified in the Note, will be considered an advance. All advances will be added to the Obligations and may be collected from Trustor upon demand at any time after the advances are made, and the holder of the Note and Deed of Trust will be subrogated to the rights of any lienholder so paid. Immediately upon receiving any knowledge or notice of any default or claimed default under any Encumbrance, Trustor will give written notice to Beneficiary and will give to Beneficiary a true copy of each and every notice, summons, legal process, legal paper, or other communication relating in any way to any Encumbrance or any default under the Encumbrance. If payment of all or any part of principal or interest secured by any Encumbrance is not be made at the time required, then, regardless of any postponement, extension, indulgence, or forgiveness that may be agreed to or acquiesced in by the holder of the Encumbrance, a sum equal to the amount of the principal will immediately become due and payable in reduction of the Obligations. If, with or without Beneficiarys consent, the principal amount of any Encumbrance that is superior in lien priority to this Deed of Trust is increased over the amount of its unpaid principal as it exists on the date of this Deed of Trust, then, upon Beneficiarys demand, a sum equal to the amount of the increase will immediately become due and payable in reduction of the Obligations.
42. Security Intended. Notwithstanding any provision of this Deed of Trust to the contrary, the parties intend that this document is security for the payment and performance of the Obligations and will be a deed of trust. If, despite that intention, a court of competent jurisdiction determines that this document does not qualify as a trust deed or deed of trust, then, ab initio, this instrument will be deemed a realty mortgage and will be enforceable as a realty mortgage, Trustor will be deemed a mortgagor, Beneficiary will be deemed a mortgagee, and Trustee will be disregarded and all references to the Trustee will be deemed to refer to the mortgagee to the extent not inconsistent with interpreting this instrument as though it were a realty mortgage. As a realty mortgage, Trustor, as mortgagor, will be deemed to have conveyed the Trust Property ab initio to the Beneficiary as mortgagee, the conveyance as a security to be void upon condition that Trustor pay and perform all its Obligations.
43. General.
(a) Upon the written request of Beneficiary stating that all of the Obligations have been paid or performed and upon surrender of this Deed of Trust to Trustee for cancellation and upon payment by Trustor of its fees, Trustee will reconvey, without warranty, the estate in the Trust Property then held by Trustee. The grantee in the reconveyance may be designated and described as the person or persons legally entitled thereto, or by other appropriate terms. In lieu of execution of a reconveyance by Trustee, Beneficiary may execute or release or, on behalf of Trustee, execute the reconveyance, in which case legal title will be vested in the person or persons legally entitled thereto. Beneficiary will not be obligated to consent to or permit any partial releases of the Trust Property.
(b) Except as provided in Paragraph 35, this Deed of Trust will inure to and bind the heirs, legatees, devisees, administrators, executors, successors, and assigns of the
23
parties. This Deed of Trust will be so construed that, wherever applicable, the use of the singular number will include the plural number, the use of the plural number will include the singular number, the use of the masculine gender will include the feminine gender. The term Beneficiary will mean the owner and holder of the Note, and will include all successors and assigns of a beneficiary to this Deed of Trust. Any appointment of Beneficiary as attorney-in-fact for Trustor will be with full power of substitution. This Deed of Trust was prepared after negotiations by and between Trustor and Beneficiary, and Trustor waives any rule of construction that requires that this Deed of Trust be construed against Beneficiary because Beneficiary or its attorneys prepared this Deed of Trust.
(c) Unless otherwise specifically set forth in this Deed of Trust, any consent, approval, or election by Beneficiary (or the establishment of any item to the satisfaction of Beneficiary) will be deemed and construed as being given, withheld, or established at and in Beneficiarys sole and absolute discretion.
(d) Trustor requests that a copy of any Notice of Sale under this Deed of Trust be mailed to it at its address set forth above.
(e) If the payment or performance of any provision of this Deed of Trust will require a payment in excess of that permitted by any applicable law, the obligation to be paid or performed will be reduced to the minimum extent necessary to comply with any limitation of law. By acceptance of this Deed of Trust, the Beneficiary expressly waives the right to demand any excess. The provisions of this paragraph will control every other provision of this Deed of Trust.
(f) Time is of the essence in the payment and performance of each and every provision of this Deed of Trust. No failure on the part of Beneficiary to exercise any of its rights upon any default will be construed to prejudice its rights if any other or subsequent default. No delay on the part of Beneficiary in exercising any of the rights will be construed to preclude it from their exercise at any time during the continuance of the default. Beneficiary may enforce any one or more remedies or rights under this Deed of Trust successively or concurrently at its option, and any enforcement of any one or more remedies will be not deemed to be any election against or preclusion of any other rights or remedies.
(g) Unless otherwise required by applicable law, all notices required to be given under this Deed of Trust will be in writing and will be either served personally or by U.S. certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, and addressed to Trustor, Trustee, and Beneficiary at their respective addresses first above written. These addresses may be changed by notice to the other parties given in the same manner as provided in this paragraph. Notices given by certified mail will be deemed to have been given upon their deposit in a regular receptacle of U.S. mail.
24
(h) This Deed of Trust will be governed and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California. Trustor irrevocably submits to jurisdiction and venue in the State of California.
