Pledge Agreement - Critical Path Inc. and William McGlashan
PLEDGE AGREEMENT
THIS PLEDGE AGREEMENT (this "Agreement") is made as of May 20, 2002,
by and among William McGlashan (the "Pledgor") in favor of Critical Path, Inc.,
a California corporation (the "Lender"),
W I T N E S S T H:
WHEREAS, the Pledgor owns, or will own pursuant to the exercise of
options, shares of the common stock of the Lender (the Shares");
WHEREAS, substantially simultaneously herewith, the Lender will
enter into a loan agreement (the "Loan Agreement") with the Pledgor, pursuant to
which the Lender will make a loan to the Pledgor for the purchase price of a
principal residence that shall not exceed One Million Five Hundred Thousand
Dollars ($1,500,000) (the "Loan"); and
WHEREAS, it is a condition precedent to the Lender lending money
under the Loan Agreement that the Pledgor shall have executed and delivered this
Agreement, pursuant to which the Pledgor pledges that number of Shares, if any,
that have an aggregate value, when combined with the fair market value of the
Property secured by the Deed of Trust (the "Property") described in the Loan
Agreement (the "Deed of Trust"), of at all times not less than 120% of the total
of (i) the then current outstanding balance of Loan, (ii) all interest thereon,
and (iii) any other loan or other obligation of the Pledgor secured by the
Property and which is senior to the Loan, plus all interest thereon (the
"Pledged Shares"):
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises contained herein
and other good and valuable consideration the receipt and sufficiency of which
are hereby acknowledged, and in order to induce the Lender to loan the Pledgor
such funds as stated above, the Pledgor hereby agrees as follows:
1. Pledge and Grant of Security Interest. As security for the prompt and
complete payment and performance of any and all obligations, now or hereafter
existing, of the Pledgor under this Agreement or the Loan Agreement, including
any extensions, modifications, substitutions, amendments and renewals hereof or
thereof, whether for principal, interest, fees, premiums, expenses,
reimbursement obligations, indemnification or otherwise, the Pledgor hereby
pledges to the Lender, and grants to the Lender a security interest in, any and
all of the Pledgor's right, title and interest in and to the following, whether
now owned or existing or hereafter acquired or owned (collectively, the
"Collateral"):
(a) the Pledged Shares;
(b) all securities or other instruments in addition to, in substitution
of, or in exchange for any of the Pledged Shares (whether as a distribution in
connection with any recapitalization, reorganization or reclassification, a
stock dividend or otherwise);
(c) any distributions of cash or property in respect of the items
described in the preceding clauses (a) and (b);
1
<PAGE>
(d) all proceeds and products of any of the foregoing items, however and
whenever acquired and in whatever form; and
(e) any other property or assets pledged by Pledgor, in order to
substitute for existing Collateral or to provide sufficient security for the
Loan as required hereunder
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the aggregate
of value of the Collateral shall be limited to the value that, when combined
with the fair market value of the Property secured by the Deed of Trust, is at
all times not less than 120% of the aggregate of (i) the outstanding balance of
the Loan, plus all interest thereon, and (ii) any other loan or other obligation
of the Pledgor secured by the Property and which is senior to the Loan, plus all
interest thereon. For the purpose of determining whether or not the Lender has
sufficient security for the Loan, the Lender shall have the right to obtain
independent appraisals of the Property at the Lender's expense, on an annual
basis or prior to the Loan becoming subordinate to any other loan, if ever. If
necessary following such appraisal, Mr. McGlashan shall provide the Company with
an irrevocable power of attorney coupled with an interest giving authority to
the Company to exercise on Pledgor's behalf any vested options following any
Event of Default. If, (a) the value of the Collateral, when combined with the
fair market value of the Property is approximately 90% or less of the total of
(i) the then current outstanding balance of the Loan, plus all interest thereon,
and (ii) any other loan or obligation of the Pledgor secured by the Property and
which is senior to the Loan, plus all interest thereon, (b) there are no
additional Shares available to increase the value of the Collateral, and (c) the
Company's auditor determines that the Company would be required to take a charge
against earnings and treat the Loan as bonus compensation to Pledgor, then
Pledgor shall deliver to the Company other personal or real property security
sufficient to increase the total value of the Collateral and the Property to
100% of the total of (i) the then current outstanding balance of the Loan, plus
all interest thereon, and (ii) any other loan or obligation of the Pledgor
secured by the Property and which is senior to the Loan, plus all interest
thereon. In addition, with respect to any options necessary to satisfy the
Collateral requirement hereunder, Pledgor shall deliver to Lender his written
commitment, in form reasonably acceptable to Lender, that he shall not exercise
or transfer any such options. All such options shall immediately become part of
the Collateral. .
2. Delivery of Collateral; After-Acquired Collateral.
(a) Simultaneously with or prior to the execution of this Agreement, all
certificates or instruments representing or evidencing the Collateral shall be
delivered to the Lender and held by or on behalf of the Lender pursuant hereto
and shall be in suitable form for transfer by delivery, or shall be accompanied
by duly executed instruments of transfer or assignment in blank, including
signature guarantees, all in form and substance satisfactory to the Lender. The
Lender shall have the right during the existence of an Event of Default (as
defined in the Note) but without any requirement for prior written notice to the
Pledgor, to transfer to or to register in the name of the Lender or any of its
nominees any or all of the Collateral. Except as provided in Section 12 hereof,
the Pledgor shall maintain all voting rights in the Collateral.
(b) While this Agreement is in effect, if the Pledgor becomes entitled to
receive or receives any additional Collateral, the Pledgor shall accept such
Collateral on behalf of and for the benefit of the Lender and shall promptly
deliver such additional Collateral to the Lender together
2

with duly executed forms of assignment, and such additional Collateral shall be
deemed to be part of the Collateral hereunder.
3. Distributions. While this Agreement is in effect, the Pledgor shall be
entitled to receive all dividends, distributions and other property (cash or
otherwise) paid or distributed in respect to any of the Collateral, except after
an Event of Default, in which case all of which shall be paid to the Lender and
shall be applied promptly to the payment of the principal and then to the
accrued interest under the Loan.

Agreement remains outstanding:

TO A PLEDGE AGREEMENT DATED AS OF MAY 20, 2002 (AS THE SAME HAS BEEN
AND MAY HEREAFTER BE AMENDED, MODIFIED, OR RESTATED) MADE BY WILLIAM
MCGLASHAN FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE LENDER NAMED THEREIN.
or other such legend, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to and as
specified by the Lender, indicating that such Collateral is subject to the
pledge and security interest granted hereby;
(f) if any of the Collateral is an uncertificated security within the
meaning of the UCC or otherwise not evidenced by any stock certificate or

Article 8 or 9 of the UCC, and, without any limitation of the foregoing, prior
to or concurrently with the pledge hereunder of the Collateral to which this
section applies (and as reasonably requested by the Lender thereafter), use
commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that all Collateral that is an
uncertificated security is re-registered in the name of the Lender;
4
<PAGE>
(g) if any of the Collateral is a certificated security within the meaning
of the UCC, the Pledgor agrees to, simultaneously with or prior to the execution
of this Agreement (and as reasonably requested by the Lender thereafter), take
all actions necessary to ensure perfection of the security interest under
prevailing and applicable law, including, as applicable, under Article 8 or 9 of
the UCC, and, without any limitation of the foregoing, deliver all certificates
or instruments representing or evidencing the Collateral to the Lender,
accompanied by a duly executed assignment separate from the certificate in the
form attached hereto as Exhibit A;
(h) pay all taxes, assessments and charges assessed with respect to the
Collateral; and
(i) do all such other things as the Lender may reasonably deem necessary
or appropriate in order to assure to the Lender its security interests under
this Agreement, to the extent that such acts are not inconsistent with any
provision of this Agreement.
6. Event of Default. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default (as
defined in the Loan Agreement), the Lender shall have the right to exercise any
and all the rights, powers and remedies of any owner of the Collateral
(including, without limitation, the right to vote the Collateral) and shall have
and may exercise without demand any and all of the rights and remedies granted
to a secured party upon default under the Uniform Commercial Code of California
or otherwise available to the Lender under applicable law. The Pledgor agrees
that in the event the Lender shall, during the existence of an Event of Default,
sell the Collateral or any portion thereof at any private sale or sales, the
Lender shall have the right to rely upon the advice and opinion of independent
appraisers and other personas, which appraisers and other persons are acceptable
to the Lender, as to the best price reasonably obtainable upon such a private
sale thereof. The Pledgor shall have no right to redeem any of the Collateral
after any such sale or assignment. At any such sale or auction, the Lender may
bid for, and become the purchaser of, the whole or any part of the Collateral
offered for sale. In case of any such sale, after deducting the costs,
reasonable attorneys' fees and other expenses of sale and delivery, the
remaining proceeds of such sale shall be applied promptly to the payment first
of accrued interest and then to principal under the Note; provided, however,
that after payment in full of the indebtedness evidenced by the Note, the
balance of the proceeds of sale then remaining shall be paid to the Pledgor and
the Pledgor shall be entitled to the return of any of the Collateral remaining
in the hands of the Lender. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in
case of any Event of Default, Pledgor shall have, with respect to the
Collateral, all notice and reinstatement rights applicable by California statute
to foreclosure of real property security. In any event, the Pledgor shall not be
liable for any deficiency if the proceeds of sale of the Collateral are
insufficient to pay the accrued and unpaid interest together with the remaining
unpaid principal on the Note.
7. Costs and Attorneys' Fees. All costs and expenses (including reasonable
attorneys' fees and any transfer, stamp or other similar taxes with respect to
the transfer of any Collateral to the Lender) incurred in exercising any right,
power or remedy conferred by this Agreement or in the enforcement thereof, shall
become part of the indebtedness secured hereunder and be payable immediately
upon demand.
8. Payment of Loan and Release of Collateral. Upon payment in full of the
Loan and the discharge of all of the Pledgor's obligations under the Loan
Agreement and under this
5
<PAGE>
Agreement, the Lender shall surrender the remaining Collateral, if any, to the
Pledgor together with all forms of assignment. Upon the written request of
Pledgor, to be delivered not more frequently than once every 12 months
hereunder, Lender shall release to Pledgor that portion of the Collateral, if
any, that has an aggregate value, when combined with the fair market value of
the Property, of more than 150% of the total of (i) the then current outstanding
balance of the Loan, (ii) all interest thereon, and (iii) any other loan or
other obligation of the Pledgor secured by the Property and which is senior to
the Loan, plus all interest thereon.
9. No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. The Lender shall not by any act, delay,
omission, or otherwise be deemed to have waived any of its rights or remedies
hereunder, and no waiver shall be valid unless in writing, signed by the Lender,
and then only to the extent therein set forth. A waiver by the Lender of any
right or remedy hereunder on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to
any right or remedy which the Lender would otherwise have on any future
occasion. No failure to exercise nor any delay in exercising on the part of the
Lender, any right, power or privilege hereunder shall preclude any other or
further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege.
The rights and remedies herein provided are cumulative and may be exercised
singly or concurrently, and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided
by law.
10. Notices. All notices and other communications hereunder shall be in
writing and shall be given as described in the Loan Agreement.
11. Principal Place of Residence. The principal place of residence of the
Pledgor as of the date hereof follows:
[_______]
12. Proxy and Power of Attorney. THE PLEDGOR HEREBY IRREVOCABLY GRANTS TO
LENDER THE PLEDGOR'S PROXY EXERCISABLE ONLY DURING THE EXISTENCE OF AN EVENT OF
DEFAULT TO VOTE ANY COLLATERAL AND APPOINTS THE LENDER THE PLEDGOR'S
ATTORNEY-IN-FACT, EXERCISABLE ONLY DURING THE EXISTENCE OF AN EVENT OF DEFAULT
TO PERFORM ALL OBLIGATIONS OF THE PLEDGOR UNDER THIS AGREEMENT. THE PROXY AND
POWER OF ATTORNEY GRANTED HEREIN ARE COUPLED WITH AN INTEREST AND ARE
IRREVOCABLE PRIOR TO PAYMENT IN FULL OF THE INDEBTEDNESS EVIDENCED BY THE NOTE.
13. Modifications. No amendment, modification, termination, discharge or
waiver of any provision of this Agreement shall be effective unless the same
shall be set forth in writing and signed by the Pledgor and the Lender and then
only to the extent specifically set forth therein.
14. Severability. Any provision of this Agreement which is prohibited or
unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective
to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the
remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any
jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any
other jurisdiction.

SECURED PROMISSORY NOTE
May 20, 2002 San Francisco, CA
1. Borrower's Promise to Pay. In return for a loan that we, the Borrowers, have
received, each of us promises to pay One Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars
($1,500,000.00) or so much thereof as shall be disbursed hereunder (the
"Principal"), plus interest, to the order of Critical Path, Inc., a California
corporation, whose address is 350 The Embarcadero, San Francisco, CA 94105 (the
"Lender"). We will make all payments under this Note in the form of cash, check,
money order or by transfer of immediately available funds or by setoff against
amounts owed to the Borrower by the Lender. We understand that the Lender may
transfer this Note. The Lender or anyone who takes this Note by transfer and who
is entitled to receive payments hereunder is called the "Note Holder." This Note
is executed pursuant to that certain Loan Agreement dated May 20, 2002, between
Borrower and Lender (the "Loan Agreement").
2. Interest. Interest will be charged on the outstanding Principal balance until
the full amount of Principal has been paid. We understand that the interest rate
is 4.75% per annum. We will pay all of the accrued interest when the Principal
is due.
3. Repayment.
(a) We will pay the Principal and interest due hereunder immediately upon
the occurrence of any of the following:
(i) a sale of the property located at the address listed above, except
as expressly provided in the Loan Agreement;
(ii) the tenth anniversary from the date hereof; or
(iii) except as provided in subsection 3(a)(i), the property located at
the address listed above ceases to be the principal residence of the
Borrowers.
(b) We will pay the Principal and interest due hereunder within twelve
(12) months of the termination of the employment of the undersigned, William
McGlashan, if such termination occurs for any of the following reasons:
(i) the voluntary resignation of William McGlashan as chief executive
officer ("CEO") of the Lender;
(ii) the Board of Directors of the Lender terminates William McGlashan
for Cause (as defined in the First Amended and Restated Employment
Agreement, by and between the Lender and William McGlashan, dated as
of January 7, 2002); or
(iii) the death of William McGlashan.
<PAGE>
(c) All of our obligations to repay the Principal and interest hereunder
shall terminate upon the occurrence of a Change of Control (as hereinafter
defined) of the Lender that is commenced while William McGlashan is CEO of the
Lender; provided that the consideration received for such Change of Control is
greater than ten dollars ($10) per share of the common stock of the Lender. For
the purposes of this Note, "Change of Control" shall mean any of the following:
(i) the consummation of a merger or consolidation of the Lender with
or into another entity or any other corporate reorganization, if
more than fifty Percent (50%) of the combined voting power of the
continuing or surviving entity's securities outstanding immediately
after such merger, consolidation or other reorganization is owned by
persons who were not shareholders of the Lender immediately prior to
such merger, consolidation or other reorganization;
(ii) the sale, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially
all of the Lender's assets;
(iii) the dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Lender; or
(iv) any transaction as a result of which any person is the
"beneficial owner" (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934), directly or indirectly, of securities of the
Lender representing at least of twenty percent (20%) of the total
voting power represented by the Lender's then outstanding voting
securities.
For purposes of this Section 3, the term "person" shall have the same meaning as
when used in sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Securities Exchange Act but shall
exclude: (A) trustee or other fiduciary or a subsidiary of the Lender; (B) a
corporation owned directly or indirectly by the shareholders of the Lender in
substantially the same proportions as their ownership of the common stock of the
Lender; and (C) the Lender.
A transaction shall not constitute a Change of Control if its sole purpose is to
change the state of the Lender's incorporation or to create a holding company
that will be owned in substantially the same proportions by the persons who held
the Lender's securities immediately before such transactions.
If the foregoing results in forgiveness of the Loan ("Loan Forgiveness"), and if
the Loan forgiveness constitutes income under any applicable tax law, Borrowers
shall timely and fully satisfy any withholding obligations on the Loan
Forgiveness by paying the Company the required withholding amount in cash. To
the extent that Borrowers do not satisfy the withholding requirements on the
Loan Forgiveness, then the amount of actual Loan Forgiveness shall be reduced by
such unsatisfied withholding amount and the amount of such reduction shall
instead be treated as a cash bonus ("Withholding Bonus"). The Withholding Bonus,
however, shall be immediately applied to satisfy the required withholding on the
sum of the reduced Loan Forgiveness amount and the Withholding Bonus. The
Company shall pay the withholding amount to the tax authorities and report such
payment on its filings with such tax authorities.
2
<PAGE>
Purely for illustrating how the Loan Forgiveness reduction provision operates,
if an event occurred which gave rise to a Loan Forgiveness and if the required
withholding amount on $1,500,000 of Loan Forgiveness is $500,000 and if
Borrowers did not satisfy any part of such withholding amount, then the actual
amount of Loan Forgiveness would be reduced to $1,000,000 and the Withholding
Bonus amount would be $500,000 and such Withholding Bonus would be immediately
applied by the Company to satisfy the total withholding obligation.
(d) All payments made under this Section 3 and Section 5 below shall be
paid to the Lender at the address stated in Section 1 above.
4. Security. Prior to any amounts being disbursed hereunder, this Note is, and
shall be, secured by (i) the Deed of Trust with Assignment of Rents in the form
as attached to the Loan Agreement at Exhibit B, as made by the Borrower in favor
of the trustee named in the Deed of Trust, for the benefit of the Lender, and
(ii) the Pledge Agreement, by and between the Lender and the Borrower, dated as
of the date hereof.
5. Voluntary Prepayment. Any payment made at any time before it is due is a
"Prepayment" under this Note. When we choose to make a Prepayment, we will tell
the Note Holder in writing when we are doing so. We may make a Prepayment or
partial Prepayments without paying any Prepayment charge. All payments under
this Note, including any Prepayment, shall be applied first to accrued interest,
and thereafter to the outstanding principal balance hereof.
6. Loan Charges. If a law, which applies to this loan and which sets maximum
loan charges, is finally interpreted so that the interest or other loan charges
collected or to be collected in connection with this loan exceed the permitted
limits, then: (i) any such loan charge shall be reduced by the amount necessary
to reduce the charge to the permitted limit; and (ii) any sums already collected
from us which exceeded permitted limits will be refunded to us. The Note Holder
may choose to make this refund by reducing the Principal we owe under this Note
or by making a direct payment to us. If a refund reduces the Principal, the
reduction will be treated as a partial Prepayment.
7. Event of Default. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default (as defined in
the Loan Agreement), the Principal and the interest hereunder will become
immediately due and payable. Upon such an occurrence of an Event of Default, the
Note Holder shall have the right to be reimbursed by us for all costs and
expenses incurred in enforcing this Note to the extent not prohibited by
applicable law. Those expenses include, without limitation, reasonable
attorneys' fees.
8. Giving of Notices. Unless applicable law requires a different method, any
notice that must be given to us under this Note shall be given as described in
the Loan Agreement.
9. Obligations of Persons under this Note. If more than one person signs this
Note, each person is fully and personally obligated to keep all of the promises
made in this Note, including the promise to pay the full amount owed. Any person
who is a guarantor, surety or endorser of this Note is also obligated to do
these things. Any person who takes over these obligations,
3
<PAGE>
including the obligations of a guarantor, surety or endorser of this Note, is
also obligated to keep all of the promises in this Note.
10. Waivers. We and any other person who has obligations under this Note waive
the rights of presentment and notice of dishonor. "Presentment" means the right
to require the Note Holder to demand payment of amounts due. "Notice of
Dishonor" means the right to require the Note Holder to give notice to other
persons that amounts due have not been paid.
11. Lost or Destroyed Loan Documents. If this Note or the Deed of Trust is lost,
stolen, mutilated or destroyed, Borrower will deliver a new Note or Deed of
Trust to Lender on the same terms and conditions as this Note or the Deed of
Trust, with a notation of the unpaid principal in substitution of the prior Note
or Deed of Trust. Lender shall furnish to Borrower reasonable evidence that the
Note or Deed of Trust was lost, stolen, mutilated or destroyed and any indemnity
or other supporting documentation that may be reasonably required by Borrower in
connection with the replacement of this Note or the Deed of Trust.
12. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the domestic laws of the State of California, without giving
effect to any choice of law or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the
State of California or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application
of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of California.
13. Defined Terms. All defined terms beginning with capital letters and not
defined in this Note shall have the meaning given them in the Loan Agreement.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Borrower has executed this Secured Promissory Note as
of the date and year first above written.

all of the terms, covenants and conditions of all instruments of record
affecting the Property, and to do or to cause to be done all things necessary to

other insurance (including, without limitation, flood or other hazard insurance

require from time to time, satisfactory to and with loss payable to Beneficiary.
The amount collected under any fire or other insurance policy may be applied by
Beneficiary upon any indebtedness secured hereby and in such order as
Beneficiary may determine, or at option of Beneficiary the entire amount so
collected or any part thereof may be released to Trustor. Such application or
release shall not cure or waive any default or notice of default hereunder or
invalidate any act done pursuant to such notice.
4. To appear in and defend any action or proceeding purporting to affect
the security hereof or the rights or powers of Beneficiary or Trustee; and to
pay all costs and expenses, including cost of evidence of title and attorney's
fees in a reasonable sum, in any action or proceeding in which Beneficiary or
Trustee may appear, and in any suit brought by Beneficiary to foreclose this
Deed of Trust.
5. To pay: at least ten days before delinquency all taxes and assessments

provided for by law in effect at the date hereof regarding the obligation
secured hereby, any amount demanded by the Beneficiary not to exceed the maximum
allowed by law at the time when said statement is demanded.
Should Trustor fail to make any payment or to do any act as herein
provided, then Beneficiary or Trustee, but without obligation so to do and
without notice to or demand upon Trustor and without releasing Trustor from any
obligation hereof, shall have the right to make or do the same in such manner
and to such extent as either may deem necessary to protect the security hereof,
Beneficiary or Trustee being authorized to enter upon the Property for such
purposes; appear in and defend any action or proceeding purporting to affect the
security hereof or the rights or powers of Beneficiary or Trustee; pay,
purchase, contest or compromise any encumbrance, charge, or lien which in the
judgement of either appears to be prior or superior hereto; and, in exercising
any such powers, pay necessary expenses, employ counsel and pay his or her
reasonable fees.
7. To exonerate, protect, indemnify and defend Beneficiary and Trustee
from, and save them harmless against, any and all liability, reasonable expenses

whether in suit or not, arising from (i) the ownership or use of the Property;
(ii) any failure of the Property to be in compliance with any applicable laws;
or (iii) Borrower's breach of any of Borrower's covenants and obligations
contained in the Note or this Deed of Trust.
Trustor's foregoing obligations under this Paragraph 7 shall not be
affected by the absence or unavailability of insurance covering the same or by
the failure or refusal by any insurance carrier to perform any obligation on its
part under any such policy of covering insurance. If any claim, action or
proceeding is made or brought against Trustee or Beneficiary that is subject to
the indemnity set forth in this Paragraph 7, Trustor shall resist or defend
against the same, if necessary, in the name of Trustee or Beneficiary, by
attorneys for Trustor's insurance carrier (if the same is covered by insurance)
or otherwise by attorneys approved by Beneficiary. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, Trustee and Beneficiary, in their discretion, have the right to
engage their own attorneys to resist or defend, or assist therein, and Trustor
shall pay, or, on demand, shall reimburse Trustee or Beneficiary for the payment
of, the reasonable fees and disbursements of said attorneys.
B. It is mutually agreed that:
1. Any award of damages in connection with any condemnation for public use
of or injury to the Property or any part thereof is hereby assigned and shall be
paid to Beneficiary who shall have the right to apply or release such moneys
received by him or her in the same manner and with the same effect as above
provided for regarding disposition of proceeds of fire or other insurance.
2. By accepting payment of any sum secured hereby after its due date,
Beneficiary does not waive his or her right either to require prompt payment
when due of all other sums so secured or to declare default for failure so to
pay.

3. At any time or from time to time, without liability therefor and
without notice, upon written request of Beneficiary and presentation of this

liability of any person for payment of the indebtedness secured hereby, Trustee
has the right to: reconvey any part of the Property; consent to the making of
any map or plat thereof; join in granting any easement thereon; or join in any
extension agreement or any agreement subordinating the lien or charge hereof.
4. Upon written request of Beneficiary stating that all sums secured
hereby have been paid, and upon surrender of this Deed of Trust and the Note
(and any other note that is secured by the Deed of Trust) to Trustee for
cancellation and retention or other disposition as Trustee in its sole
discretion may choose and upon payment of its fees, Trustee shall reconvey,
without warranty, the property then held hereunder. The recitals in such
reconveyance of any matters or facts shall be conclusive proof of the
truthfulness thereof. The Grantee in such reconveyance may be described as "the
person or persons legally entitled thereto."
5. All sums payable by Trustor under this Deed of Trust shall be paid
without notice, demand, counterclaim, setoff, deduction or defense and without
abatement, suspension, deferment, diminution or reduction, and the obligations
and liabilities of Trustor hereunder shall in no way be released, discharged or
otherwise affected (except as otherwise provided by this Deed of Trust) by
reason of: (i) any casualty or condemnation or similar taking of the Property or
any part thereof; (ii) any restriction or prevention of or interference with any
use of the Property or any part thereof; (iii) any title defect or encumbrance
or any eviction from the Property or any part thereof by title paramount or

dissolution, liquidation or other like proceeding relating to Beneficiary, or
any action taken with respect to this Deed of Trust by any trustee or receiver
of Beneficiary, or by any court, in any such proceeding; all of items (i)
through (iv) above applying whether or not Trustor shall have notice or
knowledge of any of the same. Except as expressly provided herein, Trustor
waives all rights now or hereafter conferred by statute or otherwise to any
abatement, suspension, deferment, diminution or reduction of any obligations
secured hereby.
6. As additional security, Trustor hereby gives to and confers upon
Beneficiary the right, power and authority, during the continuance of these
Trusts, to collect the rents, issues and profits of the Property, reserving unto
Trustor the right, prior to any Event of Default, as defined in the Loan
Agreement (an "Event of Default"), to collect and retain such rents, issues and
profits as they become due and payable. Upon any Event of Default, Beneficiary
has the right to, at any time without notice, either in person, by agent, or by
a receiver to be appointed by a court, and without regard to the adequacy of any
security for the indebtedness hereby secured, enter upon and take possession of
the Property or any part thereof, in his or her own name sue for or otherwise
collect such rents, issues, and profits, including those past due and unpaid,
and apply the same, less costs and expenses of operation and collection,
including reasonable attorney's fees, upon any indebtedness secured hereby, and
in such order as Beneficiary may determine. The entering upon and taking
possession of the Property , the collection of such rents, issues and profits
and the application thereof as aforesaid, shall not cure or waive any Event of
Default or notice of such Event of Default hereunder or invalidate any act done
pursuant to such notice.
7. Upon any Event of Default, Beneficiary shall have the right to declare
all sums secured hereby immediately due and payable by delivery to Trustee of
written declaration of
- 4 -
<PAGE>
default and demand for sale and of written notice of default and of election to
cause to be sold the Property, which notice Trustee shall cause to be filed for
record. Beneficiary also shall deposit with Trustee this Deed of Trust, the Note
and all documents evidencing expenditures secured hereby.
After the lapse of such time as may then be required by law following the
recordation of said notice of default, 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 Trustee in said notice of sale, 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 time of sale. Trustee shall have the right to postpone sale
of all or any portion of the Property by public announcement at such time and
place of sale, and from time to time thereafter shall have the right to postpone
such sale by public announcement at the time fixed by the preceding
postponement. Trustee shall deliver to such purchaser its deed conveying the
property so sold, but without any covenant or warranty, express or implied. The
recitals in such deed of any matters or facts shall be conclusive proof of the
truthfulness thereof. Any person, including Trustor, Trustee, or Beneficiary,
may purchase at such sale.
After deducting all costs, fees and expenses of Trustee and of this Trust,
including cost of evidence of title in connection with sale, Trustee shall apply
the proceeds of sale to payment of: all sums expended under the terms hereof,
not then repaid, with accrued interest at the amount allowed by law in effect at
the date hereof; all other sums then secured hereby; and the remainder, if any,
to the person or persons legally entitled thereto.
8. Beneficiary, or any successor in ownership of any indebtedness secured
hereby, has the right to, from time to time, by instrument in writing,
substitute a successor or successors to any Trustee named herein or acting
hereunder, which instrument, executed by the Beneficiary and duly acknowledged
and recorded in the office of the recorder of the county or counties where the
Property is situated, shall be conclusive proof of proper substitution of such
successor Trustee or Trustees, who shall, without conveyance from the Trustee
predecessor, succeed to all its title, estate, rights, powers and duties. Said
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.
9. This Deed of Trust applies to, inures to the benefit of, and binds all
parties hereto, their heirs, legatees, devisees, administrators, executors,
successors, and assigns. The term Beneficiary shall mean the owner and holder,
including pledgees of the Note secured hereby, whether or not named as
Beneficiary herein. In this Deed of Trust, whenever the context so requires, the
masculine gender includes the feminine and/or the neuter, and the singular
number includes the plural.
10. The Trustee accepts this Trust when this Deed of Trust, duty executed
and acknowledged, is made a public record as provided by law. Trustee is not
obligated to notify any party hereto of pending sale under any other deed of
trust or of any action or proceeding in which Trustor, Beneficiary or Trustee
shall be a party unless brought by Trustee.

11. A copy of any notice of default and any notice of sale hereunder shall
be mailed to Trustor at his address hereinbefore set forth.

in writing. No delay, omission or failure by Beneficiary or Trustee to exercise
any right, power or remedy to which it may be entitled by reason of any Event of
Default or default by the other party shall impair any such right, power or
remedy, nor shall such be construed as a release by Beneficiary or Trustee of
such right, power or remedy or as a waiver of or acquiescence in any such Event
of Default or other default. Any waiver by any party of any right, power or
remedy in any instance shall not constitute a waiver of the same or any other
right, power or remedy in any other instance.

severally liable for each obligation of Trustor herein.
