such liability, the amount thereof, including costs, expenses and reasonable
attorneys' fees, shall be secured hereby and by the Debt Documents and Assignor
shall reimburse Assignee therefor immediately upon demand and upon the failure
of Assignor so to do Assignee may, at its option, declare all sums secured
hereby and under the Debt Documents immediately due and payable. This Assignment
shall not operate to place any obligation or liability for the control, care,
management or repair of the Property upon Assignee, nor for the carrying out of
any of the terms and conditions of the Lease or the Option; nor shall it operate
to make Assignee responsible or liable for any waste committed on the Property
by Assignor, or any tenants, occupants or any other parties, or for any
dangerous or defective condition of the Property, including, without limitation,
the presence of any hazardous materials or substances, or for any negligence in
the management, upkeep, repair or control of the Property resulting in loss or
injury or death to Assignor, or any tenant, licensee, employee, guest, invitee
or any other person.

the Debt Documents shall prevail.
12. No Oral Change. This Assignment and any provisions
hereof may not be modified, amended, waived, extended, changed, discharged or
terminated orally, or by any act or failure to act on the part of Assignor or
Assignee, but only by an agreement in writing signed by the party against whom
the enforcement of any modification, amendment, waiver, extension, change,
discharge or termination is sought.
13. Non-Waiver. The failure of Assignee to insist upon
strict performance of any term hereof shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any
term of this Assignment. Assignor shall not be relieved of Assignor's
obligations hereunder by reason of (i) failure of Assignee to comply with any
request of Assignor or any other party to take any action to enforce any of the
provisions hereof or of the Debt Documents, (ii) the release, regardless of
consideration, of the whole or any part of the Obligations, or (iii) any
agreement or stipulation by Assignee extending the time of payment or otherwise
modifying or supplementing the terms of this Assignment or the Debt Documents.
Assignee may resort for the payment of the Obligations to any other security
held by Assignee in such order and manner as Assignee, in its discretion, may
elect. Assignee may take any action to recover the Obligations, or any portion
thereof, or to enforce any covenant hereof without prejudice to the right of
Assignee thereafter to enforce its rights under this Assignment. The rights of
Assignee under this Assignment shall be separate, distinct and cumulative and
none shall be given effect to the exclusion of the others. No act of Assignee
shall be construed as an election to proceed under any one provision herein to
the exclusion of any other provision.
14. Inapplicable Provisions. If any term, covenant or
condition of this Assignment is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in
any respect, this Assignment shall be construed without such provision.
15. Counterparts. This Assignment may be executed in any
number of counterparts, each of which when take together shall constitute a
single agreement.
