Upon request or demand of Beneficiary after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Trustor shall, at its expense, assemble the Collateral and make it available to Beneficiary at a convenient place (at the Land if tangible property) reasonably acceptable to Beneficiary. Trustor shall pay to Beneficiary on demand any and all expenses, including reasonable legal expenses and attorneys’ fees, incurred or paid by Beneficiary in protecting its interest in the Collateral and in enforcing its rights hereunder with respect to the Collateral after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default. Any notice of sale, disposition or other intended action by Beneficiary with respect to the Collateral sent to Trustor in accordance with the provisions hereof at least 10 business days prior to such action, shall, except as otherwise provided by applicable law, constitute reasonable notice to Trustor. The proceeds of any disposition of the Collateral, or any part thereof, may, except as otherwise required by applicable law, be applied by Beneficiary to the payment of the Debt in such priority and proportions as Beneficiary in its discretion shall deem proper. Trustor hereby warrants Trustor’s (debtor’s) principal place of business and State of organization are as set forth on page one hereof. The address of Beneficiary (secured party) is as set forth on page one hereof.
Section 1.4. Fixture Filing. This Security Instrument constitutes and shall be effective as Financing Statement filed as a fixture filing from the date of recording under Sections 104.9334 and 104.9502 of the Nevada Uniform Commercial Code (the “UCC”). For such purposes, (i) the “debtor” is Trustor and its address is the address given for it in the initial paragraph of this Security Instrument; (ii) the “secured party” is Beneficiary, and its address for the purpose of obtaining information is the address given for it in the initial paragraph of this Security Instrument; (iii) the real estate to which the fixtures are or are to become attached is Trustor’s interest in the Real Property and is legally described in Exhibit A attached hereto; and (iv) the record owner of such real estate is Trustor.

Section 3.2. Waste. Trustor shall not commit or suffer any waste of the Property or make any change in the use of the Property which will in any way materially increase the risk of fire or other hazard arising out of the operation of the Property, or take any action that might invalidate or allow the cancellation of any Policy, or do or permit to be done thereon anything that may in any way materially impair the value of the Property or the security of this Security Instrument. Trustor will not, without the prior written consent of Beneficiary, permit any drilling or exploration for or extraction, removal, or production of any minerals from the surface or the subsurface of the Land, regardless of the depth thereof or the method of mining or extraction thereof.
Section 3.3. Payment for Labor and Materials. (a) Trustor will promptly pay when due all bills and costs for labor, materials, and specifically fabricated materials (“Labor and Material Costs”) incurred by it in connection with the Property and never permit to exist beyond the due date thereof in respect of the Property or any part thereof any lien or security interest, even though inferior to the liens and the security interests hereof, and in any event never permit to be created or exist in respect of the Property or any part thereof any other or additional lien or security interest other than the liens or security interests hereof except for the Permitted Encumbrances.

7
Section 3.4. Performance of Other Agreements. Trustor shall observe and perform each and every term, covenant and provision to be observed or performed by Trustor pursuant to any agreement or recorded instrument affecting or pertaining to the Property and any amendments, modifications or changes thereto.
Section 3.5. Change of Name, Identity, Structure or Location; Subjection to Other Security Agreements; Locations of Places of Business and Chief Executive Office. Trustor shall not change its name, identity (including its trade name or names), structure or location (determined as provided in Section 9-307 of the UCC) in any manner, and shall not become bound, as provided in Section 9-203(d) of the UCC, by a security agreement entered into by another Person, in each case unless it shall have given Beneficiary not less than 30 days’ prior notice thereof. Trustor shall not in any event change the location of its place or places of business, its chief executive office or any Collateral or its name, identity, structure or location (determined as provided in Section 9-307 of the UCC), or become bound, as provided in Section 9-203(d) of the UCC, by a security agreement entered into by another Person, if such change would cause the Security Interests in any Collateral to lapse or cease to be perfected unless Trustor has taken on or before the date of lapse all actions necessary to ensure that the Security Interests in the Collateral does not lapse or cease to be perfected.
Section 3.6. Title. Trustor has good, marketable and insurable fee simple title to the real property comprising part of the Property, and Trustor is the beneficial owner of and has good title to the balance of such Property, in each case free and clear of all Liens whatsoever except Permitted Encumbrances. The Permitted Encumbrances in the aggregate do not materially and adversely affect the value, operation or use of the Property. Other than this Security Instrument, financing statements or other similar or equivalent documents or instruments with respect to the security interests purported to be granted hereby (the “Security Interests”) and Permitted Encumbrances, no financing statement, deed of trust, security agreement or similar or equivalent document or instrument covering all or any part of the Collateral is on file or of record in any jurisdiction in which such filing or recording would be effective to perfect a Lien on such Collateral. The Collateral is not in the possession or control of any Person asserting any claim thereto or security interest therein, except that Beneficiary or its nominee, custodian or a securities intermediary acting on its behalf may have possession and/or control of the Collateral as contemplated hereby. This Security Instrument, when properly recorded in the appropriate records, will create (a) a valid, perfected first priority Lien on the Property, subject only to Permitted Encumbrances and (b) a valid perfected first priority security interest in and to, and a valid perfected first priority collateral assignment of, all Collateral, all in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof, in each case subject only to any applicable Permitted Encumbrances. There are no claims for payment for work, labor or materials affecting the Property which are past due and are or may become a Lien prior to, or of equal priority with, the Liens created by this Security Instrument unless such claims for payments are being contested in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Security Instrument. Trustor is not and will not become a party to or otherwise be bound by any agreement, other than this Security Instrument, which restricts in any manner the rights of Beneficiary or any other present or future holder of the Collateral with respect thereto.

8
consent, approval, license, authorization or validation of, or filing, recording or registration with, or exemption by any Governmental Authority is required to be obtained by Trustor in connection with the execution, delivery or performance of this Security Instrument, or to perfect or maintain the perfection and intended priority of the Liens and Security Interests of this Security Instrument, except for (a) any such order, consent, approval, license or authorization which has been obtained prior to the date hereof, (b) recordation of this Security Instrument in the Clark County Recorder’s Office and (c) filing of a UCC-1 Financing Statement with the office of the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware.

OBLIGATIONS AND RELIANCES
Section 4.1. Relationship of Trustor and Beneficiary. The relationship between Trustor and Beneficiary is solely that of debtor and creditor, and Beneficiary has no fiduciary or other special relationship with Trustor, and no term or condition of the Loan Agreement, the Note, this Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents shall be construed so as to deem the relationship between Trustor and Beneficiary to be other than that of debtor and creditor.
Section 4.2. No Reliance on Beneficiary. The general partners, members, principals and (if Trustor is a trust) beneficial owners of Trustor are experienced in the ownership and operation of properties similar to the Property, and Trustor and Beneficiary are relying solely upon such expertise and business plan in connection with the ownership and operation of the Property. Trustor is not relying on Beneficiary’s expertise, business acumen or advice in connection with the Property.
Section 4.3. No Beneficiary Obligations. (a) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 1.1(h) and Section 1.1(n) or Section 1.2, Beneficiary is not undertaking the performance of (i) any obligations under the Leases or (ii) any obligations with respect to such agreements, contracts, certificates, instruments, franchises, permits, trademarks, licenses and other documents.
(b) By accepting or approving anything required to be observed, performed or fulfilled or to be given to Beneficiary pursuant to this Security Instrument, Beneficiary shall not be deemed to have warranted, consented to, or affirmed the sufficiency, the legality or effectiveness of same, and such acceptance or approval thereof shall not constitute any warranty or affirmation with respect thereto by Beneficiary.
Section 4.4. Liens Absolute. All rights of Beneficiary, all Liens and security interests hereunder and all obligations of Trustor or Borrower hereunder are unconditional and absolute
9
and independent and separate from any other security for or guaranty of the Obligations, whether executed by Trustor or any other Person. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the obligations of Trustor hereunder shall not be released, discharged or otherwise affected or impaired by:
(a) any extension, renewal, settlement, compromise, acceleration, waiver or release in respect of any obligation of Trustor under any Loan Documents or any other agreement or instrument evidencing or securing any Obligation, by operation of law or otherwise;
(b) any change in the manner, place, time or terms of payment of any Obligation or any other amendment, supplement or modification to any Loan Documents or any other agreement or instrument evidencing or securing any Obligation;
(c) any release, non-perfection or invalidity of any direct or indirect security for any Obligation, any sale, exchange, surrender, realization upon, offset against or other action in respect of any direct or indirect security for any Obligation or any release of any other obligor in respect of any Obligation;
(d) any change in the existence, structure or ownership of Trustor, Borrower, any Guarantor or any other Person, or any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, readjustment, composition, liquidation or other similar proceeding affecting Trustor, any Guarantor or any other Person, or their assets or any resulting disallowance, release or discharge of all or any portion of any Obligation;
(e) the existence of any claim, set-off or other right which Trustor, Borrower, any Guarantor or any other Person, may have at any time against Beneficiary or any other Person, whether in connection herewith or any unrelated transaction; provided, that nothing herein shall prevent the assertion of any such claim by separate suit or compulsory counterclaim;
(f) any invalidity or unenforceability relating to or against Trustor, Borrower, any Guarantor or any other Person, for any reason of any Loan Documents or any other agreement or instrument evidencing or securing any Obligation or any provision of applicable law or regulation purporting to prohibit the payment by Trustor, Borrower, any Guarantor or any other Person, of any Obligation;
(g) any failure by Beneficiary: (i) to file or enforce a claim against Trustor, Borrower, any Guarantor or any other Person, or its estate (in a bankruptcy or other proceeding); (ii) to give notice of the existence, creation or incurrence by Trustor or Borrower of any new or additional indebtedness or obligation under or with respect to the Obligations; (iii) to commence any action against Trustor, Borrower, any Guarantor or any other Person; (iv) to disclose to Trustor, Borrower, any Guarantor or any other Person, any facts which such Beneficiary may now or hereafter know with regard to Trustor; or (v) to proceed with due diligence in the collection, protection or realization upon any collateral securing the Obligations;
(h) any direction as to application of payment by Trustor or any other Person;
10
(i) any subordination by Beneficiary of the payment of any Obligation to the payment of any other liability (whether matured or unmatured) of Trustor to its creditors;
(j) any act or failure to act by Beneficiary under this Security Instrument or otherwise which may deprive Trustor, Borrower, any Guarantor or any other Person, of any right to subrogation, contribution or reimbursement against Trustor or any right to recover full indemnity for any payments made in respect of the Obligations; or
(k) any other act or omission to act or delay of any kind by Trustor or Beneficiary or any other Person or any other circumstance whatsoever which might, but for the provisions of this clause, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of Trustor’s obligations hereunder.
Trustor has irrevocably and unconditionally delivered this Security Instrument to Beneficiary, and the failure by any other Person to sign this Security Instrument or a pledge agreement similar to this Security Instrument or otherwise shall not discharge the obligations of Trustor hereunder.
Section 4.5. Continuing Liability of Trustor. The Security Interests are granted as security only and shall not subject Beneficiary to, or transfer or in any way affect or modify, any obligation or liability of Trustor with respect to any of the Collateral or any transaction in connection therewith.
ARTICLE V.
FURTHER ASSURANCES
Section 5.1. Recording of Security Instrument, etc. Trustor forthwith upon the execution and delivery of this Security Instrument and thereafter, from time to time, will cause this Security Instrument and any of the other Loan Documents creating a Lien or security interest or evidencing the Lien hereof upon the Property and each instrument of further assurance to be filed, registered or recorded in such manner and in such places as may be required by any present or future law in order to publish notice of and fully to protect and perfect the Lien or security interest hereof upon, and the interest of Beneficiary in, the Property. Trustor will pay all taxes, filing, registration or recording fees, and all expenses incident to the preparation, execution, acknowledgment and/or recording of this Security Instrument, any deed of trust or mortgage supplemental hereto, any security instrument with respect to the Property and any instrument of further assurance, and any modification or amendment of the foregoing documents, and all federal, state, county and municipal taxes, duties, imposts, assessments and charges arising out of or in connection with the execution and delivery of this Security Instrument, any deed of trust or mortgage supplemental hereto, any security instrument with respect to the Property or any instrument of further assurance, and any modification or amendment of the foregoing documents, except where prohibited by law so to do.
Section 5.2. Further Acts, etc. Trustor will, at the cost of Trustor, and without expense to Beneficiary, do, execute, acknowledge and deliver all further acts, deeds, conveyances, deeds of trust, mortgages, assignments, notices of assignments, transfers and assurances as Beneficiary shall, from time to time, reasonably require, for the better assuring, conveying, assigning,
11
transferring, and confirming unto Beneficiary the property and rights hereby mortgaged, deeded, granted, bargained, sold, conveyed, confirmed, pledged, assigned, warranted and transferred or intended now or hereafter so to be, or which Trustor may be or may hereafter become bound to convey or assign to Beneficiary, or for carrying out the intention or facilitating the performance of the terms of this Security Instrument or for filing, registering or recording this Security Instrument, or for complying with all Legal Requirements. Trustor will, from time to time at its expense at the reasonable request of Beneficiary and in such manner and form as Beneficiary may require, execute, deliver, file and record any financing statement, specific assignment, instrument, document, agreement or other paper and take any other action (including, without limitation, any filings of financing or continuation statements under the UCC or the Uniform Commercial Code of the States of Delaware and Nevada) that from time to time may be necessary or desirable, or that Beneficiary may request, in order to create, preserve, perfect, confirm or validate the Security Interests or to enable Beneficiary to obtain the full benefit of this Security Instrument or to exercise and enforce any of its rights, powers and remedies created hereunder or under applicable law with respect to any of the Collateral. To the extent permitted by applicable law, Trustor hereby authorizes Beneficiary to file, in the name of Trustor or otherwise and without the signature or other separate authorization or authentication of Trustor appearing thereon, such financing statements or continuation statements as Beneficiary in its sole discretion may deem necessary or appropriate to perfect or maintain the perfection of the Security Interests. Trustor agrees that a carbon, photographic, photostatic or other reproduction of this Security Instrument is sufficient as a financing statement. Trustor also agrees that any financing statements or continuation statements may describe the collateral as “all assets” or “all personal property” or words to similar effect and which may be filed in Nevada, Delaware or other jurisdictions as Beneficiary in its sole discretion may deem necessary or appropriate to perfect or maintain the perfection of the Security Interests. Trustor shall pay the costs of, or incidental to, any recording or filing of any such financing or continuation statements.
Section 5.3. Changes in Tax, Debt, Credit and Documentary Stamp Laws. (a) If any law is enacted or adopted or amended after the date of this Security Instrument which deducts the Debt from the value of the Property for the purpose of real estate taxation or which imposes a tax, either directly or indirectly, on the Debt or Beneficiary’s interest in the Property in substitute for real property taxation, Trustor will pay the tax, with interest and penalties thereon, if any. If Beneficiary is advised by competent counsel chosen by it that the payment of tax by Trustor would be unlawful or taxable to Beneficiary or unenforceable or provide the basis for a defense of usury then Beneficiary shall have the option by written notice of not less than 120 days to declare the Debt immediately due and payable.
(b) Trustor will not claim or demand or be entitled to any credit or credits on account of the Debt for any part of the Taxes or Other Charges assessed against the Property, or any part thereof, and no deduction shall otherwise be made or claimed from the assessed value of the Property, or any part thereof, for real estate tax purposes by reason of this Security Instrument or the Debt. If such claim, credit or deduction shall be required by law, Beneficiary shall have the option, by written notice of not less than 120 days, to declare the Debt immediately due and payable.
(c) If at any time the United States of America, any State thereof or any subdivision of any such State shall require revenue or other stamps to be affixed to the Note, this
12
Security Instrument, or any of the other Loan Documents or impose any other tax or charge on the same, Trustor will pay for the same, with interest and penalties thereon, if any.
Section 5.4. Severing of Mortgage. This Security Instrument and the Note shall, at any time until the same shall be fully paid and satisfied, at the sole election of Beneficiary, be severed, split or divided into two or more notes and two or more security instruments in such denominations as Beneficiary shall determine in its sole discretion, each of which shall cover all or a portion of the Property to be more particularly described therein. To that end, Trustor, upon written request of Beneficiary, at Trustor’s cost and expense, shall execute, acknowledge and deliver, or cause to be executed, acknowledged and delivered by the then owner of the Property, to Beneficiary and/or its designee or designees, substitute notes and security instruments in such principal amounts, aggregating not more than the then unpaid principal amount of this Security Instrument, (provided that the severance of such instruments shall not modify or amend any material economic term of the Loan) and containing terms, provisions and clauses substantially identical to those contained herein and in the Note, and such other documents and instruments as may be required by Beneficiary.
ARTICLE VI.
DUE ON SALE/ENCUMBRANCE
Section 6.1. Beneficiary Reliance. Trustor acknowledges that Beneficiary has examined and relied on the experience of Trustor and its general partners, members, principals and (if Trustor is a trust) beneficial owners in owning and operating properties such as the Property in agreeing to make the Loan, and will continue to rely on Trustor’s ownership of the Property as a means of maintaining the value of the Property as security for repayment of the Debt and the performance of the Other Obligations. Trustor acknowledges that Beneficiary has a valid interest in maintaining the value of the Property so as to ensure that, should Trustor default in the repayment of the Debt or the performance of the Other Obligations, Beneficiary can recover the Debt by a sale of the Property.
Section 6.2. No Sale/Encumbrance. Neither Trustor nor any Restricted Party shall cause, permit or suffer any Transfer to occur other than as expressly permitted pursuant to the terms of the Loan Agreement.
ARTICLE VII.
RIGHTS AND REMEDIES UPON DEFAULT
Section 7.1. Remedies. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, Trustor agrees that Beneficiary may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, take such action, without notice or demand, as it deems advisable to protect and enforce its rights against Trustor and in and to the Property, including, but not limited to, the following actions, each of which may be pursued concurrently or otherwise, at such time and in such order as Beneficiary may determine, in its sole discretion, without impairing or otherwise affecting the other rights and remedies of Beneficiary:
(a) institute proceedings, judicial or otherwise, for the complete foreclosure of this Security Instrument under any applicable provision of law, in which case the Property or any
13
interest therein may be sold for cash or upon credit in one or more parcels or in several interests or portions and in any order or manner;
(b) with or without entry, to the extent permitted and pursuant to the procedures provided by applicable law, institute proceedings for the partial foreclosure of this Security Instrument for the portion of the Debt then due and payable, subject to the continuing Lien and security interest of this Security Instrument for the balance of the Debt not then due, unimpaired and without loss of priority;
(c) sell for cash or upon credit the Property or any part thereof and all estate, claim, demand, right, title and interest of Trustor therein and rights of redemption thereof, pursuant to power of sale or otherwise, at one or more sales, as an entirety or in parcels, at such time and place, upon such terms and after such notice thereof as may be required or permitted by law;
(d) institute actions, suits or proceedings (i) in equity for the specific performance of any covenant, condition or agreement contained herein, or (ii) as Beneficiary otherwise may deem appropriate to protect and enforce the rights vested in Beneficiary by this Security Instrument;
(e) recover judgment on the Note either before, during or after any proceedings for the enforcement of this Security Instrument or the other Loan Documents;
(f) apply for the appointment of a receiver, trustee, liquidator or conservator of the Property, without notice and without regard for the adequacy of the security for the Debt and without regard for the solvency of Trustor, Borrower, any guarantor, indemnitor with respect to the Loan or of any Person liable for the payment of the Debt;
(g) the license granted to Trustor under Section 1.2 shall be automatically revoked, and, subject to any applicable Legal Requirements, Beneficiary may enter into or upon the Property, either personally or by its agents, nominees or attorneys and dispossess Trustor and its agents and servants therefrom, without liability for trespass, damages or otherwise and exclude Trustor and its agents or servants wholly therefrom, and take possession of all books, records and accounts relating thereto and Trustor agrees to surrender possession of the Property and of such books, records and accounts to Beneficiary upon demand, and thereupon Beneficiary may (i) use, operate, manage, control, insure, maintain, repair, restore and otherwise deal with all and every part of the Property and conduct the business thereat; (ii) complete any construction on the Property in such manner and form as Beneficiary deems advisable; (iii) make alterations, additions, renewals, replacements and improvements to or on the Property; (iv) exercise all rights and powers of Trustor with respect to the Property, whether in the name of Trustor or otherwise, including, without limitation, the right to make, cancel, enforce or modify Leases, obtain and evict tenants, and demand, sue for, collect and receive all Rents; (v) require Trustor to pay monthly in advance to Beneficiary, or any receiver appointed to collect Rents, the fair and reasonable rental value for the use and occupation of such part of the Property as may be occupied by Trustor; (vi) require Trustor to vacate and surrender possession of the Property to Beneficiary or to such receiver and, in default thereof, Trustor may be evicted by summary proceedings or otherwise; and (vii) apply the receipts from the Property to the payment of the
14
Debt, in such order, priority and proportions as Beneficiary shall deem appropriate in its sole discretion after deducting therefrom all expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred in connection with the aforesaid operations and all amounts necessary to pay the Taxes, Other Charges, Insurance Premiums and other expenses in connection with the Property, as well as just and reasonable compensation for the services of Beneficiary, its counsel, agents and employees;
(h) exercise any and all rights and remedies granted to a secured party upon default under the Uniform Commercial Code, including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing: (i) the right to take possession of the Fixtures, the Equipment, the Personal Property, any other Collateral or any part thereof, and to take such other measures as Beneficiary may deem necessary for the care, protection and preservation of the Fixtures, the Equipment, the Personal Property, any other Collateral or any part thereof and (ii) request Trustor at its expense to assemble the Fixtures, the Equipment, the Personal Property, any other Collateral or any part thereof and make it available to Beneficiary at a convenient place acceptable to Beneficiary;
(i) pursue such other remedies as Beneficiary may have under applicable law;
(j) apply the undisbursed balance of any Net Proceeds Deficiency deposit, together with interest thereon, to the payment of the Debt in such order, priority and proportions as Beneficiary shall deem to be appropriate in its discretion; or
(k) collect, receive, appropriate and realize upon the Collateral and/or sell, assign, give an option or options to purchase or otherwise dispose of and deliver the Collateral (or contract to do so) or any part thereof in one or more parcels (which need not be in round lots) at public or private sale or at broker’s board or on any securities exchange, at any office of Beneficiary or elsewhere in such manner as is commercially reasonable and as Beneficiary may deem best, for cash, on credit or for future delivery without assumption of any credit risk and at such price or prices as Beneficiary may deem satisfactory. Beneficiary shall give Trustor not less than 10 days’ prior notice of the time and place of any sale or other intended disposition of any of the Collateral, except any Collateral which threatens to decline speedily in value or is of a type customarily sold on a recognized market. Any such notice shall (i) in the case of a public sale, state the time and place fixed for such sale, (ii) in the case of a sale at a broker’s board or on a securities exchange, state the board or exchange at which such sale is to be made and the day on which the Collateral, or the portion thereof being sold, will first be offered for sale, (iii) in the case of a private sale, state the day after which such sale may be consummated, (iv) contain the information specified in Section 9-613 of the UCC, (v) be authenticated and (vi) be sent to the parties required to be notified pursuant to Section 9-611(c) of the UCC; provided, that if Beneficiary fails to comply with this sentence in any respect, its liability for such failure shall be limited to the liability (if any) imposed on it as a matter of law under the UCC. Beneficiary and Trustor agree that such notice constitutes reasonable notification within the meaning of Section 9-611 of the UCC. Except as otherwise provided herein, Trustor hereby waives, to the extent permitted by applicable law, notice and judicial hearing in connection with Beneficiary’s taking possession or disposition of any of the Collateral. Beneficiary may be the purchaser of any or all of the Collateral so sold at any public sale (or, if the Collateral is of a type customarily sold in a recognized market or is of a type which is the subject of widely distributed standard price quotations, at any private sale). Trustor will execute and deliver such documents and take such other action as Beneficiary deems necessary or advisable in order that any such sale may be
15
made in compliance with law. Upon any such sale, Beneficiary shall have the right to deliver, assign and transfer to the purchaser thereof the Collateral so sold. Each purchaser at any such sale shall hold the Collateral so sold to it absolutely and free from any claim or right of whatsoever kind. Any such public sale shall be held at such time or times within ordinary bankers hours and at such place or places as Beneficiary may fix in the notice of such sale. At any such sale, the Collateral may be sold in one lot as an entirety or in such parcels, as Beneficiary may determine. Beneficiary shall not be obligated to make any such sale pursuant to any such notice. Beneficiary may, without notice or publication, adjourn any public or private sale or cause the same to be adjourned from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed for the sale, and such sale may be made at any time or place to which the same may be so adjourned without further notice. In the case of any sale of all or any part of the Collateral on credit or for future delivery, the Collateral so sold may be retained by Beneficiary until the selling price is paid by the purchaser thereof, but Beneficiary shall not incur any liability in case of the failure of such purchaser to take up and pay for the Collateral so sold and, in the case of such failure, such Collateral may again be sold upon like notice.
In the event of a sale, by foreclosure, power of sale or otherwise, of less than all of Property, this Security Instrument shall continue as a lien and security interest on the remaining portion of the Property unimpaired and without loss of priority.
(l) Without limiting the foregoing, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Beneficiary may deliver to Trustee written declaration of default and demand for sale and of written Notice of Default and Election to Sell (in accordance with Nevada Revised Statutes 107.080) to cause the Property to be sold to satisfy the obligations hereof, which Notice Trustee shall cause to be filed for record. After the lapse of such time as may then be required by law following the recordation of said Notice of Breach and Election to Sell, and notice of sale having been given as then required by law, Trustee without demand on Trustor, shall sell the Property at the time and place fixed by it in said notice, either as a whole or in separate parcels, and in such order as it may determine, at public auction to the highest bidder, for cash in lawful money of the United States payable at the time of sale. Trustee may, for any cause it deems expedient, postpone the sale of all or any portion of the Property until it shall be completed and, in every case, notice of postponement shall be given by public announcement thereof at the time and place last appointed for the sale and from time to time thereafter Trustee may postpone such sale by public announcement at the time fixed by the preceding postponement. Trustee shall execute and deliver to the purchaser its Trustee’s Deed conveying the Property so sold but without any covenant or warranty, express or implied. The recitals in the Trustee’s Deed of any matters or facts shall be conclusive proof of the truthfulness thereof. Any person, including Beneficiary, may bid at the sale. After deducting all costs, fees and expenses of the Trustee and of this Trust, including the cost of any evidence of title procured in connection with such sale, the Trustee shall apply the proceeds of sale in the manner provided in NRS 40.462.
Section 7.2. Limitation on Duty of Beneficiary in Respect of Collateral. Beyond the exercise of reasonable care in the custody thereof, Beneficiary shall not have any duty to exercise any rights or take any steps to preserve the rights of Trustor in the Collateral in Beneficiary’s possession or control or in the possession or control of any agent or bailee or any income thereon or as to the preservation of rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining thereto, nor shall Beneficiary be liable to Trustor or any other Person for failure to meet any obligation
16
imposed by Section 9-207 of the UCC or any successor provision. Without limiting the foregoing, Beneficiary shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the Collateral in its possession or control if the Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which Beneficiary accords its own property, and (i) shall not be liable or responsible for any loss or damage to any of the Collateral, or for any diminution in the value thereof, by reason of the act or omission of any agent or bailee selected by Beneficiary in good faith or (ii) shall not have any duty or responsibility for ascertaining or taking action with respect to calls, conversions, exchanges, maturities, tenders or other matters relative to any Collateral, whether or not Beneficiary has or is deemed to have knowledge of such matters.
Section 7.3. Application of Proceeds. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, the purchase money, proceeds and avails of any disposition of the Property, and or any part thereof, or any other sums collected by Beneficiary pursuant to this Security Instrument may be applied by Beneficiary to the payment of the Debt or other Obligations in such priority and proportions as Beneficiary in its discretion shall deem proper.
Section 7.4. Right to Cure Defaults. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, Beneficiary may, but without any obligation to do so and without notice to or demand on Trustor and without releasing Trustor from any obligation hereunder, make any payment or do any act required of Trustor hereunder in such manner and to such extent as Beneficiary may deem necessary to protect the security hereof. Beneficiary is authorized to enter upon the Property for such purposes, or appear in, defend, or bring any action or proceeding to protect its interest in the Property or to foreclose this Security Instrument or collect the Debt, and the cost and expense thereof (including reasonable attorneys’ fees to the extent permitted by law), with interest as provided in this Section 7.4, shall constitute a portion of the Debt and shall be due and payable to Beneficiary upon demand. All such costs and expenses incurred by Beneficiary in remedying such Event of Default or such failed payment or act or in appearing in, defending, or bringing any such action or proceeding shall bear interest at the Default Rate, for the period after such cost or expense was incurred to the date of payment to Beneficiary. All such costs and expenses incurred by Beneficiary together with interest thereon 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 Beneficiary therefor.
Section 7.5. Actions and Proceedings. Beneficiary has the right to appear in and defend any action or proceeding brought with respect to the Property and to bring any action or proceeding, in the name and on behalf of Trustor, which Beneficiary, in its discretion, decides should be brought to protect its interest in the Property.
Section 7.6. Other Rights, Etc. (a) The failure of Beneficiary to insist upon strict performance of any term hereof shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any term of this Security Instrument. Trustor shall not be relieved of Trustor’s obligations hereunder by reason of (i) the failure of Beneficiary to comply with any request of Trustor, 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 Beneficiary
17
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 Trustor, and Beneficiary shall have no liability whatsoever for decline in 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 Beneficiary 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 Beneficiary’s possession.
(c) Beneficiary may resort for the payment of the Debt to any other security held by Beneficiary in such order and manner as Beneficiary, in its discretion, may elect. To the extent permitted by applicable law, Beneficiary may take action to recover the Debt, or any portion thereof, or to enforce any covenant hereof without prejudice to the right of Beneficiary thereafter to foreclose this Security Instrument. The rights of Beneficiary 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 Beneficiary shall be construed as an election to proceed under any one provision herein to the exclusion of any other provision. Beneficiary 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 7.7. Right to Release Any Portion of the Property. Beneficiary may release any portion of the Property for such consideration as Beneficiary 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 Beneficiary for such release, and may accept by assignment, pledge or otherwise any other property in place thereof as Beneficiary 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 7.8. Violation of Laws. If the Property is not in material compliance with any applicable Legal Requirements, Beneficiary may impose additional requirements upon Trustor in connection herewith including, without limitation, monetary reserves or financial equivalents.
Section 7.9. Recourse and Choice of Remedies. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Security Instrument or the Loan Agreement, including, without limitation, Section 9.4 of the Loan Agreement, Beneficiary and other Indemnified Parties (as hereinafter defined) are entitled to enforce the obligations of Trustor contained in Section 8.2 and Section 8.3 without first resorting to or exhausting any security or collateral and without first having recourse to the Note or any of the Property, through foreclosure or acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise, and in the event Beneficiary commences a foreclosure action against the Property, Beneficiary is entitled to pursue a deficiency judgment with respect to such obligations against Trustor with respect to the Loan. The provisions of Section 8.2 and Section 8.3 are exceptions to any non-recourse or exculpation provisions in the Loan Agreement, the Note, this Security Instrument or the other Loan Documents, and Trustor with respect to the Loan is fully liable for the obligations pursuant to Section 8.2 and Section 8.3. The liability of Trustor with respect to
18
the Loan pursuant to Section 8.2 and Section 8.3 is not limited to the original principal amount of the Note. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall inhibit or prevent Beneficiary from foreclosing or exercising any other rights and remedies pursuant to the Loan Agreement, the Note, this Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents, whether simultaneously with foreclosure proceedings or in any other sequence. A separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against Trustor pursuant to Section 8.2 and Section 8.3 whether or not action is brought against any other Person or whether or not any other Person is joined in the action or actions.
Section 7.10. Right of Entry. Upon reasonable notice to Trustor, Beneficiary and its agents shall have the right to enter and inspect the Property at all reasonable times.
Section 7.11. General Authority. Trustor hereby irrevocably appoints Beneficiary and any officer or agent thereof as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact, with full power of substitution, in the name of Trustor, Beneficiary or otherwise, for the sole use and benefit of Beneficiary, but at Trustor’s expense, to the extent permitted by law, to exercise at any time and from time to time all or any of the following powers with respect to all or any of the Property, all acts of such attorney being hereby ratified and confirmed; such power, being coupled with an interest, is irrevocable until the Obligations (excluding contingent indemnification obligations) are paid in full:
(a) to exercise and perfect any and all rights and remedies available to Beneficiary at law or in equity, including without limitation, such rights and remedies available to Beneficiary pursuant to Section 5.1, Section 5.2 and, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, this Article VII;
(b) to take any and all appropriate action and to execute any and all documents and instruments which may be necessary or desirable to carry out the terms of this Security Instrument;
(c) to receive, take, endorse, assign and deliver any and all checks, notes, drafts, acceptances, documents and other negotiable and non-negotiable instruments taken or received by Trustor as, or in connection with, the Property;
(d) upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, to commence, settle, compromise, compound, prosecute, defend or adjust any claim, suit, action or proceeding with respect to, or in connection with, the Property;
(e) upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, to sell, transfer, assign or otherwise deal in or with the Property or the proceeds or avails thereof, as fully and effectually as if Beneficiary were the absolute owner thereof;
(f) upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, to extend the time of payment of any or all of the Property and to make any allowance and other adjustments with respect thereto; and

APPLICABLE LAW
Section 12.1. Governing Law. This Security Instrument shall be governed in accordance with the terms and provisions of Section 10.3 of the Loan Agreement.
Section 12.2. Usury Laws. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary (a) all agreements and communications between Trustor and Beneficiary are hereby and shall automatically be limited so that, after taking into account all amounts deemed interest, the interest contracted for, charged or received by Beneficiary shall never exceed the Maximum Legal Rate or amount, (b) in calculating whether any interest exceeds the Maximum Legal Rate, all such interest shall be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread over the full amount and term of all principal indebtedness of Borrower to Beneficiary, and (c) if through any contingency or event, Beneficiary receives or is deemed to receive interest in excess of the Maximum Legal Rate, any such excess shall be deemed to have been applied toward payment of the principal of any and all then outstanding indebtedness of Borrower to Beneficiary, or if there is no such indebtedness, shall immediately be returned to Borrower.
24
Section 12.3. Provisions Subject to Applicable Law. All rights, powers and remedies provided in this Security Instrument may be exercised only to the extent that the exercise thereof does not violate any applicable provisions of law and are intended to be limited to the extent necessary so that they will not render this Security Instrument invalid, unenforceable or not entitled to be recorded, registered or filed under the provisions of any applicable law. If any term of this Security Instrument or any application thereof shall be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Security Instrument and any other application of the term shall not be affected thereby.
ARTICLE XIII.
DEFINITIONS

Terms used herein that are defined in Articles 8 and 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code and not otherwise defined herein or by reference herein have the meaning assigned to such terms therein.
ARTICLE XIV.
MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS
Section 14.1. No Oral Change. This Security Instrument, 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 Trustor or Beneficiary, but only by an agreement in writing signed by the party against whom enforcement of any modification, amendment, waiver, extension, change, discharge or termination is sought.
Section 14.2. Successors and Assigns. This Security Instrument shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Trustor and Beneficiary and their respective successors and assigns forever.
Section 14.3. Inapplicable Provisions. If any term, covenant or condition of this Security Instrument is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, this Security Instrument shall be construed without such provision.
25
Section 14.4. Headings, etc. The headings and captions of various Articles and Sections of this Security Instrument are for convenience of reference only and are not to be construed as defining or limiting, in any way, the scope or intent of the provisions hereof.
Section 14.5. Number and Gender. Whenever the context may require, any pronouns used herein shall include the corresponding masculine, feminine or neuter forms, and the singular form of nouns and pronouns shall include the plural and vice versa.
Section 14.6. 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, Beneficiary 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 Beneficiary 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 Trustor’s obligations hereunder, under the Loan Agreement, the Note and the other Loan Documents and the performance and discharge of the Other Obligations.
Section 14.7. Entire Agreement. This Security Instrument and the specific cross-references herein to the Loan Agreement constitute the entire understanding and agreement between Trustor and Beneficiary with respect to the transactions arising in connection with the Debt and supersede all prior written or oral understandings and agreements between Trustor and Beneficiary with respect thereto. Trustor hereby acknowledges that, except as incorporated in writing in the Note, the Loan Agreement, this Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents, there are not, and were not, and no Persons are or were authorized by Beneficiary to make, any representations, understandings, stipulations, agreements or promises, oral or written, with respect to the transaction which is the subject of the Note, the Loan Agreement, this Security Instrument and the other Loan Documents.
Section 14.8. Limitation on Beneficiary’s Responsibility. No provision of this Security Instrument shall operate to place any obligation or liability for the control, care, management or repair of the Property upon Beneficiary, nor shall it operate to make Beneficiary responsible or liable for any waste committed on the Property by tenants or any other Person, or for any dangerous or defective condition of the Property, or for any negligence in the management, upkeep, repair or control of the Property resulting in loss or injury or death to any tenant, licensee, employee or stranger or any other Person. Nothing herein contained shall be construed as constituting Beneficiary a “mortgagee in possession.”
Section 14.9. Appointment of Collateral Agent. At any time or times, in order to comply with any Legal Requirement, Beneficiary may appoint another Person that is an Affiliate of Beneficiary to act as collateral agent on behalf of Beneficiary with such power and authority as may be necessary for the effectual operation of the provisions hereof and may be specified in the instrument of appointment (which may, in the discretion of Beneficiary, include provisions for the protection of such collateral agent). Notwithstanding any such appointment but only to the extent not inconsistent with such legal requirements or, in the reasonable judgment of Beneficiary, not unduly burdensome to it or any such collateral agent, Trustor shall, so long as
26
no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, be entitled to deal solely and directly with Beneficiary rather than any such collateral agent in connection with Beneficiary’s rights and obligations under this Security Instrument.
Section 14.10. Counterparts; Effectiveness. This Security Instrument may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument. This Security Instrument shall become effective with respect to Trustor when Beneficiary shall receive counterparts hereof executed by itself and Trustor.
Section 14.11. Joint and Several Liability. If Trustor consists of more than one Person, the obligations and liabilities of each such Person shall be joint and several.
Section 14.12. Intentionally Omitted.
Section 14.13. Other Collateral. This Security Instrument is one of a number of security agreements to secure the Obligations of Borrower pursuant to the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents. All potential junior Lien claimants are placed on notice that, under the Loan Agreement and each other Loan Document granting a security interest to Beneficiary or otherwise (such as by separate future unrecorded agreement between Trustor and Beneficiary), other collateral for the Obligations secured hereunder (i.e., collateral other than the Property) may, under certain circumstances, be released without a corresponding reduction in the total principal amount secured by this Security Instrument. Such a release would decrease the amount of collateral securing the same indebtedness, thereby increasing the burden on the remaining Property created and continued by this Security Instrument. No such release shall impair the priority of the lien of this Security Instrument. By accepting its interest in the Property, each and every junior Lien claimant shall be deemed to have acknowledged the possibility of, and consented to, any such release. Nothing in this paragraph shall impose any obligation upon Beneficiary.
Section 14.14. Waiver of Appraisement, Valuation, Stay, Extension and Redemption Laws. Trustor agrees to the full extent permitted by law that if an Event of Default occurs, neither Trustor nor anyone claiming through or under it shall or will set up, claim or seek to take advantage of any appraisement, valuation, stay, extension or redemption laws now or hereafter in force, in order to prevent or hinder the enforcement or foreclosure of this Security Instrument or the absolute sale of the Property or any portion thereof or the final and absolute putting into possession thereof, immediately after such sale, of the purchasers thereof, and Trustor for itself and all who may at any time claim through or under it, hereby waives, to the full extent that it may lawfully so do, the benefit of all such laws, and any and all right to have the assets comprising the Property marshaled upon any foreclosure of the lien hereof and agrees that Trustee or any court having jurisdiction to foreclose such lien may sell the Property in part or as an entirety.
Section 14.15. Suits to Protect the Mortgaged Property. Subject to applicable provisions of the Loan Agreement, Beneficiary shall have the power and authority to institute and maintain any suits and proceedings as Beneficiary, in its sole and absolute discretion, may deem advisable (a) to prevent any impairment of the Property by any acts which may be unlawful or in violation
27
of this Security Instrument, (b) to preserve or protect its interest in the Mortgaged Property, or (c) to restrain the enforcement of or compliance with any legislation or other Legal Requirement that may be unconstitutional or otherwise invalid, if the enforcement of or compliance with such enactment, rule or order might impair the security hereunder or be prejudicial to Beneficiary’s interest.
Section 14.16. Waiver of Trial by Jury. EACH OF BENEFICIARY AND TRUSTOR HEREBY WAIVES TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN CONNECTION WITH THIS DEED OF TRUST, WHICH WAIVER IS INFORMED AND VOLUNTARY.
Section 14.17. Substitution of Trustee. Beneficiary, to the extent not prohibited by law, shall have the irrevocable power, to be exercised at any time or times hereafter and with or without cause, to substitute a trustee or trustees in place of Trustee, by an instrument in writing duly executed, acknowledged and recorded in the Clark County Recorder’s Office, and when such instrument is so recorded, all of the powers of Trustee thus superseded shall terminate and all of the right, title and interest of Trustee hereunder shall be vested in the trustee or trustees named as its successor, and such successor trustee or trustees shall have the same powers, rights and duties which the trustee so superseded had under this Security Instrument. The exercise of this right to appoint a successor trustee, no matter how often exercised, shall not be deemed an exhaustion of said right. Irrespective of whether Trustee consists of one or more entities, Beneficiary may name one or more entities as successor trustee or trustees as Beneficiary may determine.
ARTICLE XV.
STATE-SPECIFIC PROVISIONS
Section 15.1. Principles of Construction. In the event of any inconsistencies between the terms and conditions of this Article 15 and the terms and conditions of this Security Instrument, the terms and conditions of this Article 15 shall control and be binding.
Section 15.2. Waivers. (a) Trustor waives all rights of subrogation, reimbursement, indemnification, and contribution and any other rights and defenses that are or may become available to such Trustor by reason of Nevada law, including, to the extent permitted by law, (i) the benefit of all laws now existing or that may hereafter be enacted providing for any appraisement before sale of any portion of the Property; (ii) all rights of redemption, valuation, appraisement, stay of execution, notice of election to mature or declare due the whole of the secured indebtedness, and marshaling in the event of foreclosure of the liens hereby created; (iii) all rights and remedies that Trustor may have or be able to assert by reason of the laws of the State of Nevada pertaining to the rights and remedies of sureties; (iv) the right to assert any statute of limitations as a bar to the enforcement of the lien of this Security Instrument or to any action brought to enforce the Notes or any other Obligation secured by this Security Instrument; (v) Trustor’s right to notice of termination of the operation of instrument under NRS § 106.380; and (vi) any rights, legal or equitable, to require marshaling of assets or to require upon foreclosure sales in a particular order, including, without limitation, any rights under NRS §§ 100.040 and 100.050. Beneficiary shall have the right to determine the order in which any or all of the Mortgaged Property shall be subjected to the remedies provided herein. Beneficiary shall
28
have the right to determine the order in which any or all portions of the indebtedness secured hereby are satisfied from the proceeds realized upon the exercise of the remedies provided herein. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to be a waiver of Trustor’s rights under NRS § 40.462.
(b) Trustor waives all rights and defenses affecting enforcement of this Security Instrument that Trustor may have because the Obligations are secured by real property. This is an unconditional and irrevocable waiver of any rights and defenses affecting enforcement of this Security Instrument that Trustor may have because the Loan is secured by real property. These rights and defenses include, but are not limited to, any rights and defenses based upon Nevada law.
(c) Trustor hereby expressly waives diligence, demand, presentment, protest and notice of every kind and nature whatsoever (unless as otherwise required under this Security Instrument) and waives any right to require Beneficiary to enforce any remedy against any guarantor, endorser or other person whatsoever prior to the exercise of its rights and remedies hereunder or otherwise. To the extent permitted by applicable law, Trustor waives any right to require Beneficiary to (i) proceed or exhaust any collateral security given or held by Beneficiary in connection with the Obligations, (ii) give notice of the terms, time and place of any public or private sale of any real or personal property security for the Obligations or other guaranty of the Obligations; or (iii) pursue any other remedy in Beneficiary’s power whatsoever.
(d) Until all of the Obligations shall have been paid in full, Trustor (i) shall not have any right of subrogation to any of the rights of Beneficiary against any guarantor, maker or endorser; (ii) waives any right to enforce any remedy which Beneficiary or Trustor now has or may hereafter have against any other guarantor, maker or endorser; (iii) waives any benefit of, and any other right to participate in, any collateral security for the Obligations or any guaranty of the obligations now or hereafter held by Beneficiary.
(e) Trustor expressly waives all suretyship defenses that Trustor may have under Nevada law and the laws of any other state.

THIS INSTRUMENT IS INTENDED TO SERVE AS A FIXTURE FILING AND
