If there is any conflict between the terms, conditions and provisions of this First Amendment and those of any of the original Loan Documents, the terms, conditions and provisions of this First Amendment shall prevail.

B. No change or modification of this First Amendment shall be valid unless the same is in writing signed by Borrower and Lender.

13. Severability. If any court of competent jurisdiction determines any provision of this First Amendment or any of the Loan Documents to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, that portion shall be deemed severed from the rest, which shall remain in full force and effect as though the invalid, illegal or unenforceable portion had never been a part hereof or of the Loan Documents.
