3.           Notwithstanding note terms to the contrary, and unless applicable law prohibits, all payments received by Lender from Grantor under the Note or this deed of trust may, at Lender’s discretion, be applied first to amounts payable under this deed of trust and then to amounts due and payable to Lender under the Note, to be applied to late charges, principal, or interest in the order Lender in its discretion determines.

D.           Security Agreement

To further secure the payment of the Note, Grantor hereby grants to Grantee a security interest in all of Grantor’s rights, titles and interests in and to the Property which consists of as-extracted collateral, including proceeds thereof (the “Collateral”).  Grantor, as Debtor, hereby agrees that this instrument shall be filed in the real property records of the Counties in which the Property is located as a financing statement to perfect the security interest of Grantee, as Secured Party, in said portions of the Collateral.
