Sale by Trustee of the Premises. Upon a default in the payment of any indebtedness, or the performance of any obligation, secured by this Deed of Trust, or in the event that any representation, covenant or warranty contained in this Deed of Trust or in any other document evidencing or securing the loan for which any such indebtedness is evidenced shall be or become untrue, the BENEFICIARY may (without notice to or demand upon the TRUSTOR): declare all indebtedness secured by this Deed of Trust immediately due and payable; and/or execute and record (or cause the TRUSTEE to execute and record) a notice of default and election to cause the Premises to be sold to satisfy the indebtedness and obligations secured hereby; and/or commence an action to foreclose this Deed of Trust and/or take any other action permitted by law to enforce its rights and remedies hereunder as it may deem to be appropriate.

No Waiver of this right shall be effective unless in writing. Consent by the BENEFICIARY to one such transaction shall not constitute or be deemed to be a waiver of the rights of the BENEFICIARY provided herein, or a waiver of the requirement of the prior written consent of the BENEFICIARY, as to future or succeeding transactions. 15. Acceleration of Indebtedness Upon Change in Ownership, Control, or Membership of the Trustor. If the TRUSTOR is a corporation, trust, limited or general partnership, or joint venture, and there shall occur a sale, conveyance, transfer, disposition or encumbrance (whether voluntary or involuntary, or otherwise), or should an agreement be entered into to do so, with respect to more than ten percent (10%) of the issued and outstanding capital stock of the TRUSTOR (if a corporation), of the beneficial interest of the TRUSTOR (if a trust), or of any general or limited partnership or joint venture interest (if the TRUSTOR is a general or limited partnership or joint venture), or if there shall occur a change in any general partner or any joint venturer, or a change affecting the ownership, control, or membership of the TRUSTOR (if the TRUSTOR is a general or limited partnership or a joint venture), then the BENEFICIARY may, at it, election, declare the Obligation and such other indebtedness and obligations secured by this Deed of Trust, irrespective of the maturity date specified in the Obligation or in any written agreement pertaining to the Obligation and/or such other indebtedness and obligations, immediately due and payable, without notice, unless the BENEFICIARY shall have given its prior written consent thereto. Consent to one such transaction shall not constitute or be deemed to be a waiver of the right to require such consent as to future or succeeding transactions. 16. Acceleration of Indebtedness Upon an Event of Bankruptcy or Insolvency. The TRUSTOR agrees that the BENEFICIARY may, at its election, declare the Obligation and such other indebtedness and obligations secured by this Deed of Trust, irrespective of the maturity date specified in the Obligation or in any written agreement pertaining to the Obligation and/or such other indebtedness and obligations, immediately due and payable, without notice: if any proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code, or under any present or future federal, state or other statute, law or regulation pertaining to bankruptcy, insolvency or other relief for debtors shall be instituted by or against the TRUSTOR or any other person who may be liable (by way of guaranty, assumption, endorsement or otherwise) upon the Obligation and/or such other indebtedness and obligations secured hereby; and/or if a receiver, trustee or custodian shall be appointed for the TRUSTOR or such other person shall make an assignment for the benefit of creditors and if such proceeding or receiver, trustee or custodian shall not be dismissed, or such assignment shall not be voided, within sixty (60) days of such institution, appointment or making. 17. Successor Trustees. The BENEFICIARY, acting alone, may, from time to time, by instrument in writing, substitute a successor or successors to any Trustee named herein or acting hereunder, Such instrument, executed, acknowledged and recorded in the manner required by law, shall be conclusive proof of proper substitution of such successor Trustee or Trustees, who shall (without conveyance from the preceding Trustee) succeed to all of the tide, estate, rights, powers and duties of such preceding Trustee, Such instrument must contain the name of the original Trustor, Trustee and Beneficiary hereunder, the book and page where this Deed of Trust is recorded and the name and address of the new Trustee. If a notice of default has been recorded, this power of substitution cannot be exercised until after the costs, fees, and expenses of the then acting Trustee have been paid to such Trustee, who shall endorse receipt thereof upon such instrument of substitution. 18. Cumulative Remedies; Additional Security. No remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the parties to this Deed of Trust is intended to be exclusive of any other remedy provided herein or by law. Each such remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute. No delay or omission of the TRUSTEE or the BENEFICIARY in the exercising of any right or power accruing upon any event of default hereunder shall impair such right or power or any other right or power, nor shall such delay or omission be construed or deemed to be a waiver of any default or any acquiescence therein. If there exists additional security for the indebtedness and obligations secured by this Deed of Trust, the BENEFICIARY, at its election and without limiting or affecting any of its rights or remedies hereunder, may exercise any of the rights and remedies to which the BENEFICIARY may be entitled hereunder--either BENEFICIARY may deem fit without waiving any rights or remedies with respect to any other security. <PAGE> 19.
