be due and payable to Lender upon demand. All such costs and expenses incurred
by Lender or Trustee in remedying such Event of Default or such failed payment

calculated at the Default Rate shall be deemed to constitute a portion of the
Debt and be secured by this Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents and
shall be immediately due and payable upon demand by Lender therefor.

to appear in and defend any action or proceeding brought with respect to the

its interest in the Property.
Section 8.5 RECOVERY OF SUMS REQUIRED TO BE PAID. Subject to Article
15 of the Loan Agreement, Lender shall have the right from time to time to take
action to recover any sum or sums which constitute a part of the Debt as the
same become due, without regard to whether or not the balance of the Debt shall
be due, and without prejudice to the right of Lender thereafter to bring an
action of foreclosure, or any other action, for a default or defaults by
Borrower existing at the time such earlier action was commenced.
Section 8.6 OTHER RIGHTS, ETC. (a) The failure of Lender,
Beneficiary or Trustee to insist upon strict performance of any term hereof
shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any term of this Security Instrument.
Borrower shall not be relieved of Borrower's obligations hereunder by reason of
(i) the failure of Lender, Beneficiary or Trustee to comply with any request of
Borrower or any guarantor or indemnitor with respect to the Loan to take any
action to foreclose this Security Instrument or otherwise enforce any of the
provisions hereof or of the Note or the other Loan Documents, (ii) the release,
regardless of consideration, of the whole or any part of the Property, or of any
person liable for the Debt or any portion thereof, or (iii) any agreement or
stipulation by Lender extending the time of payment or otherwise modifying or
supplementing the terms of the Note, this Security Instrument or the other Loan
Documents.
(b) It is agreed that the risk of loss or damage to the Property is
on Borrower, and Lender shall have no liability whatsoever for decline in the
value of the Property, for failure to maintain the Policies, or for failure to
determine whether insurance in force is adequate as to the amount of risks
insured. Possession by Lender shall not be deemed an election of judicial relief
if any such possession is requested or obtained with respect to any Property or
collateral not in Lender's possession.
11
(c) Lender may resort for the payment of the Debt to any other
security held by Lender in such order and manner as Lender, in its discretion,
may elect. Lender or Trustee may take action to recover the Debt, or any portion
thereof, or to enforce any covenant hereof without prejudice to the right of
Lender or Trustee thereafter to foreclose this Security Instrument. The rights
of Lender or Trustee under this Security Instrument shall be separate, distinct
and cumulative and none shall be given effect to the exclusion of the others. No
act of Lender, Beneficiary or Trustee shall be construed as an election to
proceed under any one provision herein to the exclusion of any other provision.
Neither Lender, Beneficiary nor Trustee shall not be limited exclusively to the
rights and remedies herein stated but shall be entitled to every right and
remedy now or hereafter afforded at law or in equity.
Section 8.7 RIGHT TO RELEASE ANY PORTION OF THE PROPERTY. Lender may
release any portion of the Property for such consideration as Lender may require
without, as to the remainder of the Property, in any way impairing or affecting
the lien or priority of this Security Instrument, or improving the position of
any subordinate lienholder with respect thereto, except to the extent that the
obligations hereunder shall have been reduced by the actual monetary
consideration, if any, received by Lender for such release, and may accept by
assignment, pledge or otherwise any other property in place thereof as Lender
may require without being accountable for so doing to any other lienholder. This
Security Instrument shall continue as a lien and security interest in the
remaining portion of the Property.
Section 8.8 RIGHT OF ENTRY. Upon reasonable advance notice to
Borrower and subject to the rights of Tenants under Leases, Lender and its
agents shall have the right to enter and inspect the Property at all reasonable
times.
Section 8.9 BANKRUPTCY. (a) Upon or at any time after the occurrence
of an Event of Default, Lender shall have the right to proceed in its own name
or in the name of Borrower in respect of any claim, suit, action or proceeding
relating to the rejection of any Lease, including, without limitation, the right
to file and prosecute, to the exclusion of Borrower, any proofs of claim,
complaints, motions, applications, notices and other documents, in any case in
respect of the lessee under such Lease under the Bankruptcy Code.
(b) If there shall be filed by or against Borrower a petition under
11 U.S.C. ss.101 et seq., as the same may be amended from time to time (the
"BANKRUPTCY CODE"), and Borrower, as lessor under any Lease, shall determine to
reject such Lease pursuant to Section 365(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, then
Borrower shall give Lender not less than ten (10) days' prior notice of the date
on which Borrower shall apply to the bankruptcy court for authority to reject
the Lease. Lender shall have the right, but not the obligation, to serve upon
Borrower within such ten-day period a notice stating that (i) Lender demands
that Borrower assume and assign the Lease to Lender pursuant to Section 365 of
the Bankruptcy Code and (ii) Lender covenants to cure or provide adequate
assurance of future performance under the Lease. If Lender serves upon Borrower
the notice described in the preceding sentence, Borrower shall not seek to
reject the Lease and shall comply with the demand provided for in clause (i) of
the preceding sentence within thirty (30) days after the notice shall have been
given, subject to the performance by Lender of the covenant provided for in
clause (ii) of the preceding sentence.
12
Section 8.10 SUBROGATION. If any or all of the proceeds of the Note
have been used to extinguish, extend or renew any indebtedness heretofore
existing against the Property, then, to the extent of the funds so used, Lender
shall be subrogated to all of the rights, claims, liens, titles, and interests
existing against the Property heretofore held by, or in favor of, the holder of
such indebtedness and such former rights, claims, liens, titles, and interests,
if any, are not waived but rather are continued in full force and effect in
favor of Lender and are merged with the lien and security interest created
herein as cumulative security for the repayment of the Debt, the performance and
discharge of Borrower's obligations hereunder, under the Loan Agreement, the
Note and the other Loan Documents and the performance and discharge of the Other
Obligations.
ARTICLE IX

representations and warranties regarding environmental matters set forth in
Section 12.1 of the Loan Agreement and shall comply with the covenants regarding

designated by Lender, including but not limited to any representative of a
Governmental Authority, and any environmental consultant, and any receiver
appointed by any court of competent jurisdiction, shall have the right, but not
the obligation, to enter upon the Property at all reasonable times (subject to
rights of Tenants under Leases) to assess any and all aspects of the
environmental condition of the Property and its use, including but not limited
to conducting any environmental assessment or audit (the scope of which shall be
determined in Lender's reasonable discretion, provided that no materially
invasive testing may be performed without reasonable indemnities and evidence of
reasonable liability coverage from the engineer performing such testing) and
taking samples of soil, groundwater or other water, air, or building materials,
and conducting other invasive testing. Borrower shall cooperate with and provide
access to Lender and any such person or entity designated by Lender.

AS TO WHICH THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY WOULD OTHERWISE ACCRUE. EACH OF LENDER
AND BORROWER IS HEREBY AUTHORIZED TO FILE A COPY OF THIS PARAGRAPH IN ANY
PROCEEDING AS CONCLUSIVE EVIDENCE OF THIS WAIVER BY BORROWER AND LENDER.
Section 10.6 WAIVER OF FORECLOSURE DEFENSE. Borrower hereby waives

respective successors and assigns forever.

received by Lender (as opposed to constituting a portion of the voluntary
payments of principal and interest on the Note) and are not used for the
operation or maintenance of the Property or for the payment of costs and
expenses in connection therewith, taxes, assessments, water charges, sewer
rents, and other charges levied, assessed or imposed against the Property,
insurance premiums, costs and expenses with respect to any litigation affecting
the Property, the leases, the concessions, and the rent, any wages and salaries
of employees, commissions of agents and attorneys fees. It is further the intent
of Borrower and Lender that the Rents hereby absolutely assigned are no longer,
during the term of this Security Instrument, property of Borrower or property of
any estate of Borrower or of Borrower as defined in 11 U.S.C. ss. 541 and shall
not constitute collateral, cash or otherwise, of Borrower or of Borrower. The
term Rents as used herein shall mean the gross rents without deduction or
offsets of any kind.
Section 16.3 ADDITIONAL REMEDY PROVISIONS.
(a) DELIVERY UPON SALE. Upon the completion of any sale or sales
pursuant hereto, Trustee shall execute and deliver to the accepted purchaser or
purchasers a good and sufficient instrument, or good and sufficient instruments,
conveying, assigning and transferring all estate, right, title and interest in
and to the Property and rights sold by general warranty of title. Trustee is
hereby irrevocably appointed the true and lawful attorney of Borrower, in its
name and stead, to make all necessary conveyances, assignments, transfers and
deliveries of the Property and rights so sold and for that purpose Trustee may
execute all necessary instruments of conveyance, assignment and transfer, and
may substitute one or more persons with like power, Borrower hereby ratifying
and confirming all that its said attorney or such substitute or substitutes
shall lawfully do by virtue hereof. Any sale or sales made under or by virtue of
this section, whether made under the power of sale herein granted or under or by
virtue of judicial proceedings or of a judgment or decree of foreclosure and
sale, shall operate to divest all the estate, right, title, interest, claim and
demand whatsoever, whether at law or in equity, of Borrower in and to the
properties and rights so sold, and shall be a perpetual bar both at law and in
equity against Borrower and against any and all persons claiming or who may
claim the same, or any part thereof from, through or under Borrower.
(b) OPTION TO BID. Upon any sale made under or by virtue of this
paragraph, whether made under the power of sale herein granted or under or by
virtue of judicial proceedings or of a judgment or decree of foreclosure and
sale, Lender may bid for and acquire
18
the Property or any part thereof and in lieu of paying cash therefor may make
settlement for the purchase price by crediting upon the Debt the net sales price
after deducting therefrom the expenses of the sale and costs of the action and
any other sums which Lender is authorized to deduct under this Security
Instrument.
(c) REMAINING LIENS. No recovery of any judgment by Lender and no
levy of an execution under any judgment upon the Property or upon any other
property of Borrower shall affect in any manner or to any extent the lien of
this Security Instrument upon the Property or any part thereof, or any liens,
rights, powers or remedies of Lender hereunder, but such liens, rights, powers
and remedies of Lender shall continue unimpaired as before.
(d) NO WAIVER OF REMEDIES. Lender may resort to any remedies and the
security given by the Note, the Loan Agreement, this Security Instrument or the
other Loan Documents in whole or in part, and in such portions and in such order
as determined by Lender's sole discretion. No such action shall in any way be
considered a waiver of any rights, benefits or remedies evidenced or provided by
the Note, the Loan Agreement, this Security Instrument or any of the other Loan
Documents. The failure of Lender to exercise any right, remedy or option
provided in the Note, the Loan Agreement, this Security Instrument or any of the
other Loan Documents shall not be deemed a waiver of such right, remedy or
option or of any covenant or obligation secured by the Note, the Loan Agreement,
this Security Instrument or the other Loan Documents. No acceptance by Lender of
any payment after the occurrence of any Event of Default and no payment by
Lender of any obligation for which Borrower is liable hereunder shall be deemed
to waive or cure any Event of Default with respect to Borrower, or Borrower's
liability to pay such obligation. No sale of all or any portion of the Property,
no forbearance on the part of Lender, and no extension of time for the payment
of the whole or any portion of the Debt or any other indulgence given by Lender
to Borrower, shall operate to release or in any manner affect the interest of
Lender in the remaining Property or the liability of Borrower to pay the Debt.
No waiver by Lender shall be effective unless it is in writing and then only to
the extent specifically stated. All costs and expenses of Lender in exercising
its rights and remedies under this Security Instrument (including reasonable
attorneys' fees and disbursements to the extent permitted by law), shall be paid
by Borrower immediately upon notice from Lender, and such costs and expenses
shall constitute a portion of the Debt and shall be secured by this Security
Instrument.
(e) NO WAIVER CONTINUED. The interests and rights of Lender under
the Note, the Loan Agreement, this Security Instrument or in any of the other
Loan Documents shall not be impaired by any indulgence, including (A) any
renewal, extension or modification which Lender may grant with respect to any of
the Debt, (B) any surrender, compromise, release, renewal, extension, exchange
or substitution which Lender may grant with respect to the Property or any
portion thereof; or (C) any release or indulgence granted to any maker,
endorser, guarantor or surety of any of the Debt.
(f) FORECLOSURE. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of
any Event of Default, Lender may request Trustee to proceed with foreclosure
under the power of sale which is hereby conferred, such foreclosure to be
accomplished in accordance with the following provisions:
19
(i) PUBLIC SALE. Trustee is hereby authorized and empowered,
and it shall be Trustee's special duty, upon such request of Lender, to
sell the Property, or any part thereof, at public auction to the highest
bidder for cash, with or without having taken possession of same. Any
such sale (including notice thereof) shall comply with the applicable
requirements, at the time of the sale, of Section 51.002 of the Texas
Property Code or, if and to the extent such statute is not then in
force, with the applicable requirements, at the time of the sale, of the
successor statute or statutes, if any, governing sales of Texas real
property under powers of sale conferred by deeds of trust. If there is
no statute in force at the time of the sale governing sales of Texas
real property under powers of sale conferred by deeds of trust, such
sale shall comply with applicable law, at the time of the sale,
governing sales of Texas real property under powers of sale conferred by
deeds of trust. 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.
(ii) RIGHT TO REQUIRE PROOF OF FINANCIAL ABILITY AND/OR CASH
BID. To the extent permitted by applicable law, any time during the
bidding, the Trustee may require a bidding party (A) to disclose its
full name, state and city of residence, occupation, and specific
business office location, and the name and address of the principal the
bidding party is representing (if applicable), and (B) to demonstrate
reasonable evidence of the bidding party's financial ability (or, if
applicable, the financial ability of the principal of such bidding
party), as a condition to the bidding party submitting bids at the
foreclosure sale. If any such bidding party (the "QUESTIONED BIDDER")
declines to comply with the Trustee's requirement in this regard, or if
such Questioned Bidder does respond but the Trustee, in Trustee's sole
and absolute discretion, deems the information or the evidence of the
financial ability of the Questioned Bidder (or, if applicable, the
principal of such bidding party) to be inadequate, then the Trustee may
continue the bidding with reservation; and in such event (1) the Trustee
shall be authorized to caution the Questioned Bidder concerning the
legal obligations to be incurred in submitting bids, and (2) if the
Questioned Bidder is not the highest bidder at the sale, or if having
been the highest bidder the Questioned Bidder fails to deliver the cash
purchase price payment promptly to the Trustee, all bids by the
Questioned Bidder shall be null and void. The Trustee may, in Trustee's
sole and absolute discretion, determine that a credit bid may be in the
best interest of the Borrower and Lender, and elect to sell the Property
for credit or for a combination of cash and credit; provided, however,
that the Trustee shall have no obligation to accept any bid except an
all cash bid. In the event the Trustee requires a cash bid and cash is
not delivered within a reasonable time after conclusion of the bidding
process, as specified by the Trustee, but in no event later than 3:45
p.m. local time on the day of sale, then said contingent sale shall be
null and void, the bidding process may be recommenced, and any
subsequent bids or sale shall be made as if no prior bids were made or
accepted.
(iii) SALE SUBJECT TO UNMATURED DEBT. In addition to the
rights and powers of sale granted under the preceding provisions of this
subsection (f), if default is made in the payment of any installment of
the Debt and is not cured within applicable cure periods, Lender may, at
Lender's option, at once or at any time thereafter while any matured
20
installment remains unpaid, without declaring the entire Debt to be due
and payable, orally or in writing direct Trustee to enforce this
Security Instrument and to sell the Property subject to such unmatured
Debt and to the rights, powers, liens, security interests, and
assignments securing or providing recourse for payment of such unmatured
Debt, in the same manner, all as provided in the preceding provisions of
this subsection. Sales made without maturing the Debt may be made
hereunder whenever there is a default in the payment of any installment
of the Debt, without exhausting the power of sale granted hereby, and
without affecting in any way the power of sale granted under this
subsection, the unmatured balance of the Debt or the rights, powers,
liens, security interests, and assignments securing or providing
recourse for payment of the Debt.
(iv) PARTIAL FORECLOSURE. Sale of a part of the Property
shall not exhaust the power of sale, but sales may be made from time to
time until the Debt is paid in full. It is intended by each of the
foregoing provisions of this subsection that Trustee may, after any
request or direction by Lender, sell not only the Land and the
Improvements, but also the Fixtures and other interests constituting a
part of the Property or any part thereof, along with the Land and the
Improvements or any part thereof, as a unit and as a part of a single
sale, or may sell at any time or from time to time any part or parts of
the Property separately from the remainder of the Property. It shall not
be necessary to have present or to exhibit any of the Property at any
sale. Any sale of personal property made hereunder shall be deemed to
have been a public sale conducted in a commercially reasonable manner if
held contemporaneously with, or as part of, and upon the same notice as
required for the sale of real property under the power of sale granted
herein.
(v) TRUSTEE'S DEEDS. After any sale under this subsection,
Trustee shall make good and sufficient deeds, assignments, and other
conveyances to the purchaser or purchasers thereunder in the name of
Borrower, conveying the Property or any part thereof so sold to the
purchaser or purchasers with general warranty of title by Borrower. It
is agreed that in any deeds, assignments or other conveyances given by
Trustee, any and all statements of fact or other recitals therein made
as to the identity of Lender, the occurrence or existence of any Event
of Default, the notice of intention to accelerate, or acceleration of,
the maturity of the Debt, the request to sell, notice of sale, time,
place, terms and manner of sale, and receipt, distribution, and
application of the money realized therefrom, the due and proper
appointment of a substitute trustee, and without being limited by the
foregoing, any other act or thing having been duly done by or on behalf
of Lender or by or on behalf of Trustee, shall be taken by all courts of
law and equity as PRIMA FACIE evidence that such statements or recitals
state true, correct, and complete facts and Borrower does hereby ratify
and confirm any and all acts that Trustee may lawfully do in the
premises by virtue hereof.
Section 16.4 INAPPLICABILITY OF CREDIT CODE. In no event shall the
provisions of Chapter 346 of the Texas Finance Code (which regulates certain
revolving credit loan accounts and revolving triparty accounts) apply to the
loan evidenced by the Loan Documents and/or secured hereby.
Section 16.5 ENTIRE AGREEMENT. THIS SECURITY INSTRUMENT AND THE
OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS EMBODY THE FINAL, ENTIRE AGREEMENT
21
AMONG THE PARTIES HERETO AND SUPERSEDE ANY AND ALL PRIOR COMMITMENTS,
AGREEMENTS, REPRESENTATIONS AND UNDERSTANDINGS, WHETHER WRITTEN OR ORAL,
RELATING TO THE SUBJECT MATTER HEREOF AND THEREOF AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED OR
VARIED BY EVIDENCE OR PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS, OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OR
DISCUSSIONS OF THE PARTIES HERETO. THERE ARE NO ORAL AGREEMENTS AMONG THE
PARTIES HERETO.
Section 16.6 MATURITY DATE. The obligations under the Note have an
initial maturity date to occur on or before April 1, 2015.
Section 16.7 NOTICE OF INDEMNIFICATION. BORROWER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT
THIS SECURITY INSTRUMENT PROVIDES FOR INDEMNIFICATION OF LENDER AND TRUSTEE BY
BORROWER. EXCEPT FOR THE GROSS NEGLIGENCE, WILLFUL MISCONDUCT, BAD FAITH, FRAUD,
OR ILLEGAL ACTS OF LENDER, ITS AGENTS, EMPLOYEES OR CONTRACTORS WHICH SHALL BE
EXCLUDED FROM THE INDEMNIFICATION OF BORROWER, IT IS SPECIFICALLY INTENDED BY
BORROWER, LENDER, AND TRUSTEE THAT ALL INDEMNITY DEBT AND LIABILITIES ASSUMED BY
BORROWER HEREUNDER BE WITHOUT LIMIT AND WITHOUT REGARD TO THE CAUSE OR CAUSES
THEREOF (INCLUDING PREEXISTING CONDITIONS), STRICT LIABILITY, OR THE NEGLIGENCE
OF ANY PARTY OR PARTIES (INCLUDING LENDER AND TRUSTEE) WHETHER SUCH NEGLIGENCE
BE SOLE, JOINT OR CONCURRENT, OR PASSIVE. THE PARTIES SPECIFICALLY INTEND THAT

DEED OF TRUST PROVISIONS
Section 18.1 CONCERNING THE TRUSTEE. Trustee shall be under no duty
to take any action hereunder except as expressly required hereunder or by law,
or to perform any act which would involve Trustee in any expense or liability or
to institute or defend any suit in respect hereof, unless properly indemnified
to Trustee's reasonable satisfaction. Trustee, by acceptance of this Security
Instrument, covenants to perform and fulfill the trusts herein created,
23
being liable, however, only for gross negligence or willful misconduct, and
hereby waives any statutory fee and agrees to accept reasonable compensation, in
lieu thereof, for any services rendered by Trustee in accordance with the terms
hereof. Trustee may resign at any time upon giving thirty (30) days' notice to
Borrower, Beneficiary and Lender. Lender may remove Trustee at any time or from
time to time and select a successor trustee. In the event of the death, removal,
resignation, refusal to act, or inability to act of Trustee, or in its sole
discretion for any reason whatsoever Lender may, without notice and without
specifying any reason therefor and without applying to any court, select and
appoint a successor trustee, by an instrument recorded wherever this Security
Instrument is recorded and all powers, rights, duties and authority of Trustee,
as aforesaid, shall thereupon become vested in such successor. Such substitute
trustee shall not be required to give bond for the faithful performance of the
duties of Trustee hereunder unless required by Lender. The procedure provided
for in this paragraph for substitution of Trustee shall be in addition to and
not in exclusion of any other provisions for substitution, by law or otherwise.
Section 18.2 TRUSTEE'S FEES. Borrower shall pay all reasonable
costs, fees and expenses incurred by Trustee and Trustee's agents and counsel in
connection with the performance by Trustee of Trustee's duties hereunder and all
such costs, fees and expenses shall be secured by this Security Instrument.
Section 18.3 CERTAIN RIGHTS. With the approval of Lender, Trustee
shall have the right to take any and all of the following actions: (i) to
select, employ, and advise with counsel (who may be, but need not be, counsel
for Lender) upon any matters arising hereunder, including the preparation,
execution, and interpretation of the Note, this Security Instrument or the Other
Security Documents, and shall be fully protected in relying as to legal matters
on the advice of counsel, (ii) to execute any of the trusts and powers hereof
and to perform any duty hereunder either directly or through his/her agents or
attorneys, (iii) to select and employ, in and about the execution of his/her
duties hereunder, suitable accountants, engineers and other experts, agents and
attorneys-in-fact, either corporate or individual, not regularly in the employ
of Trustee, and Trustee shall not be answerable for any act, default,
negligence, or misconduct of any such accountant, engineer or other expert,
agent or attorney-in-fact, if selected with reasonable care, or for any error of
judgment or act done by Trustee in good faith, or be otherwise responsible or
accountable under any circumstances whatsoever, except for Trustee's gross
negligence or bad faith, and (iv) any and all other lawful action as Lender and
Beneficiary may instruct Trustee to take to protect or enforce Lender's and
Beneficiary's rights hereunder. Trustee shall not be personally liable in case
of entry by Trustee, or anyone entering by virtue of the powers herein granted
to Trustee, upon the Property for debts contracted for or liability or damages
incurred in the management or operation of the Property. Trustee shall have the
right to rely on any instrument, document, or signature authorizing or
supporting an action taken or proposed to be taken by Trustee hereunder,
believed by Trustee in good faith to be genuine. Trustee shall be entitled to
reimbursement for actual expenses incurred by Trustee in the performance of
Trustee's duties hereunder and to reasonable compensation for such of Trustee's
services hereunder as shall be rendered.
Section 18.4 RETENTION OF MONEY. All moneys received by Trustee
shall, until used or applied as herein provided, be held in trust for the
purposes for which they were received, but need not be segregated in any manner
from any other moneys (except to the extent
24
required by applicable law) and Trustee shall be under no liability for interest
on any moneys received by Trustee hereunder.
Section 18.5 PERFECTION OF APPOINTMENT. Should any deed, conveyance,
or instrument of any nature be required from Borrower by any Trustee or
substitute trustee to more fully and certainly vest in and confirm to Trustee or
substitute trustee such estates rights, powers, and duties, then, upon request
by Trustee or substitute trustee, any and all such deeds, conveyances and
instruments shall be made, executed, acknowledged, and delivered and shall be
caused to be recorded and/or filed by Borrower.
Section 18.6 SUCCESSION INSTRUMENTS. Any substitute trustee
appointed pursuant to any of the provisions hereof shall, without any further
act, deed, or conveyance, become vested with all the estates, properties,
rights, powers, and trusts of its or his/her predecessor in the rights hereunder
with like effect as if originally named as Trustee herein; but nevertheless,
upon the written request of Lender or of the substitute trustee, Trustee ceasing
to act shall execute and deliver any instrument transferring to such substitute
trustee, upon the trusts herein expressed, all the estates, properties, rights,
powers, and trusts of Trustee so ceasing to act, and shall duly assign, transfer
and deliver any of the property and moneys held by such Trustee to the
substitute trustee so appointed in Trustee's place.
