The lien of the Deed of Trust as hereby supplemented shall be valid as to all indebtedness hereby secured, including future advances, from the time of its filing for record in the recorder's or registrar's office in the county in which the Mortgaged Premises are located.

The Deed of Trust as hereby supplemented shall be valid and have priority over all subsequent liens and encumbrances, including statutory liens, excepting solely taxes and assessments levied on the Mortgaged Premises, to the extent of the maximum amount secured hereby. 6. This Supplement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto on separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be an original but all of which to constitute one and the same instrument. 7.

Wherever herein any of the parties hereto is referred to, such reference shall be deemed to include the successors and assigns of such party; and all the covenants, promises and agreements by or on behalf of the Grantor, or by or on behalf of the Beneficiary, or by or on behalf of the holder or holders of the indebtedness hereby secured contained in the Deed of Trust as supplemented hereby shall bind and inure to the benefit of the respective successors and assigns of such parties, whether so expressed or not. -7- <PAGE> IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Grantor has caused these presents to be duly executed the day and year first above written.
