The term "obligations" is used herein in its broadest and most comprehensive sense and shall be deemed to include, without limitation, all interest and charges, prepayment charges (if any), late charges and loan fees at any time accruing or assessed on any of the Secured Obligations. 2.3 INCORPORATION. All terms of the Secured Obligations and the documents evidencing such obligations are incorporated herein by this reference. All persons who may have or acquire an interest in the Subject Property shall be deemed to have notice of the terms of the Secured Obligations and to have notice, if provided therein, that: (a) the Note or the Loan Agreement may permit borrowing, repayment and re-borrowing so that repayments shall not reduce the amounts of the Secured Obligations; and (b) the rate of interest on one or more Secured Obligations may vary from time to time. Page 2 3 ARTICLE 3. ASSIGNMENT OF LEASES AND RENTS 3.1 ASSIGNMENT. Trustor hereby irrevocably assigns to Beneficiary all of Trustor's right, title and interest in, to and under: (a) all leases of the Subject Property or any portion thereof, and all other agreements of any kind relating to the use or occupancy of the Subject Property or any portion thereof, whether now existing or entered into after the date hereof ("Leases"); and (b) the rents, revenue, income, issues, deposits, security deposits, letters of credit, lease bonds and other deposit substitutes or credit enhancements and profits of the Subject Property, including, without limitation, all amounts payable and all rights and benefits accruing to Trustor under the Leases, and all deposits, security deposits, letters of credit, lease bonds and other deposit substitutes, or credit enhancements ("Payments").

Beneficiary confers upon Trustor a license ("License") to collect and retain the Payments as they become due and payable, until the occurrence of and during the continuance of a Default (as hereinafter defined). Upon a Default and during the continuance thereof, the License shall be automatically revoked and Beneficiary may collect and apply the Payments pursuant to Section 6.4 without notice and without taking possession of the Subject Property. Trustor hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs the lessees under the Leases to rely upon and comply with any notice or demand by Beneficiary for the payment to Beneficiary of any rental or other sums which may at any time become due under the Leases, or for the performance of any of the lessees' undertakings under the Leases, and the lessees shall have no right or duty to inquire as to whether any Default has actually occurred or is then existing hereunder. Trustor hereby relieves the lessees from any liability to Trustor by reason of relying upon and complying with any such notice or demand by Beneficiary. 3.3 EFFECT OF ASSIGNMENT. The foregoing irrevocable assignment shall not cause Beneficiary to be: (a) a mortgagee in possession; (b) responsible or liable for the control, care, management or repair of the Subject Property or for performing any of the terms, agreements, undertakings, obligations, representations, warranties, covenants and conditions of the Leases; or (c) responsible or liable for any waste committed on the Subject Property by the lessees under any of the Leases or any other parties; for any dangerous or defective condition of the Subject Property; or for any negligence in the management, upkeep, repair or control of the Subject Property resulting in loss or injury or death to any lessee, licensee, employee, invitee or other person. Beneficiary and Trustee shall not directly or indirectly be liable to Trustor or any other person as a consequence of: (i) the exercise or failure to exercise by Beneficiary or Trustee, or any of their respective employees, agents, contractors or subcontractors, any of the rights, remedies or powers granted to Beneficiary or Trustee hereunder; or (ii) the failure or refusal of Beneficiary to perform or discharge any obligation, duty or liability of Trustor arising under the Leases. 3.4 REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. Trustor represents and warrants that: (a) the Schedule of Leases attached hereto as Schedule 1 is, as of the date hereof, a true, accurate and complete list of all Leases; (b) all existing Leases are in full force and effect and are enforceable in accordance with their respective terms, and no breach or default, or event which would constitute a breach or default after notice or the passage of time, or both, exists under any existing Leases on the part of any party; (c) no rent or other payment under any existing Lease has been paid by any lessee for more than one (1) month in advance; and (d) none of the lessor's interests under any of the Leases has been transferred or assigned. 3.5 COVENANTS.

Trustor shall not, without Beneficiary's prior written consent or as otherwise permitted by any provision of the Loan Agreement: (i) enter into any Leases after the date thereof; (ii) execute any other assignment relating to any of the Leases; (iii) discount any rent or other sums due under the Leases or collect the same in advance, other than to collect rentals one (1) month in advance of the time when it becomes due; (iv) terminate, modify or amend any of the terms of the Leases or in any manner release or discharge the lessees from any obligations thereunder; (v) unreasonably consent to any assignment or subletting by any lessee; or (vi) subordinate or agree to subordinate any of the Leases to any other deed of trust or encumbrance.

Upon assignment of this Deed of Trust, Beneficiary shall have the right to assign all amounts collected and in its possession to its assignee whereupon Beneficiary and the Trustee shall be released from all liability with respect thereto. Within ninety-five (95) days following full repayment of the Secured Obligations (other than full repayment of the Secured Obligations as a consequence of a foreclosure or conveyance in lieu of foreclosure of the liens and security interests securing the Secured Obligations) or at such earlier time as Beneficiary may elect, the balance of all amounts collected and in Beneficiary's possession shall be paid to Trustor and no other party shall have any right or claim thereto. 5.4 PERFORMANCE OF SECURED OBLIGATIONS.

Beneficiary may commence, appear in, defend or prosecute any assigned claim or action and may adjust, compromise, settle and collect all claims and awards assigned to Beneficiary; provided, however, in no event shall Beneficiary be responsible for any failure to collect any claim or award, regardless of the cause of the failure, except for any malfeasance by Beneficiary or its employees or agents. (b) In the event of a casualty, so long as there is not then in existence a Default which remains uncured, the amount of repair or restoration does not exceed fifty percent (50%) of the then outstanding unpaid balance of the Loan, and Beneficiary reasonably determines that its security is not impaired by the casualty, Beneficiary shall permit insurance proceeds held by Beneficiary to be used for repair or restoration; otherwise, Beneficiary may, but shall not be obligated to, permit insurance proceeds held by Beneficiary to be used for repair or restoration. In the event of a condemnation, so long as there is not then in existence a Default which remains uncured, the amount of repair or restoration does not exceed ten percent (10%) of the then outstanding unpaid balance of the Loan, Beneficiary reasonably determines that its security is not impaired by the condemnation, and restoration is reasonably feasible, Beneficiary shall permit insurance proceeds held by Beneficiary to be used for repair or restoration; otherwise, Beneficiary may, but shall not be obligated to, permit condemnation proceeds held by Beneficiary to be used for repair or restoration In the event of any of the foregoing, Beneficiary may condition such application upon reasonable conditions, including, without limitation: (i) the deposit with Beneficiary of such additional funds which Beneficiary reasonably determines are needed to pay all costs of the repair or restoration, (including, without limitation, taxes, financing charges, insurance and rent during the repair period); (ii) the establishment of an arrangement for lien releases and disbursement of funds acceptable to Beneficiary (the arrangement contained in the Loan Agreement for obtaining lien releases and disbursing loan funds shall be deemed reasonable with respect to disbursement of insurance or condemnation proceeds); (iii) the delivery to Beneficiary of plans and specifications for the work, a contract for the work signed by a contractor acceptable to Beneficiary, a cost breakdown for the work and a payment and performance bond for the work, all of which shall be acceptable to Beneficiary; and (iv) the delivery to Beneficiary of evidence acceptable to Beneficiary (aa) that after completion of the work the income from the Subject Property will be sufficient to pay all expenses and debt service for the Subject Property; (bb) of the continuation of Leases acceptable to and required by Beneficiary; (cc) that upon completion of the work, the size, capacity and total value of the Subject Property will be at least as great as it was before the damage or condemnation occurred; (dd) that there has been no material adverse change in the financial condition or credit of Trustor since the date of this Deed of Trust; and (ee) of the satisfaction of any additional conditions that Beneficiary may reasonably establish to protect its security. Trustor hereby acknowledges that the conditions described above are reasonable, and, if such conditions have not been satisfied within one hundred fifty (150) days of receipt by Beneficiary of such insurance or condemnation proceeds, then Beneficiary may apply such insurance or condemnation proceeds to pay the Secured Obligations in such order and amounts as Beneficiary in its sole discretion may choose.

Neither Beneficiary nor Trustee shall have any duty to determine the rights of persons claiming to be rightful grantees of any reconveyance. When the Subject Property has been fully reconveyed, the last such reconveyance shall operate as a reassignment of all future rents, issues and profits of the Subject Property to the person or persons legally entitled thereto. 5.15 SUBROGATION.

(h) Upon sale of the Subject Property at any judicial or non-judicial foreclosure, Beneficiary may credit bid (as determined by Beneficiary in its sole and absolute discretion) all or any portion of the Secured Obligations.
