                  As additional security for the Secured Obligations, Trustor
does hereby pledge and assign to Beneficiary from and after the date hereof

estate, and not secondarily, any and all present and future leases, contracts or
other agreements relating to the ownership of the Real Property or the Personal

except to the extent such a transfer or assignment is not permitted by the terms

<PAGE>

hereby transfer and assign to Beneficiary all such leases, contracts and
agreements (including all Trustor's rights (x) under any contracts for the sale
of any portion of the Mortgaged Property (as hereinafter defined) and (y) to all
revenues and royalties under any oil, gas and mineral leases relating to the

such assignments of leases or assignments of land sale contracts as Beneficiary
may from time to time request solely for the purpose of creating, protecting,
perfecting or maintaining an enforceable lien thereon and an enforceable and
valid assignment of Leases. Upon the occurrence of a Trigger Event, (i) the
Trustor agrees, upon demand, to deliver to the Beneficiary all of the Leases
with such additional assignments thereof as the Beneficiary may request and
agrees that the Beneficiary may assume the management of the Real Property,
including taking control of the Leases (provided that such assumption of
management shall be done solely to the extent necessary to collect the Rents in
the event of a Material Default), and (ii) the Trustor hereby authorizes and
directs all tenants, purchasers or other persons occupying or otherwise
acquiring any interest in any part of the Real Property to pay the Rents due
under the Leases to the Beneficiary upon request of the Beneficiary. Trustor
hereby appoints Beneficiary as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact to manage
said property and to control the Leases, with full power to bring suit for
collection of the Rents and possession of the Real Property (provided that such
possession shall be taken solely to the extent necessary to collect such Rents
in the event of a Material Default), giving and granting unto said Beneficiary
and unto its agent or attorney full power coupled with an interest and authority
to do and perform all and every act and thing whatsoever requisite and necessary
to be done in the protection of the security hereby conveyed; provided, however,
that (i) this power of attorney and assignment of Leases shall not be construed
as an obligation upon said Beneficiary to make or cause to be made any repairs
that may be needful or necessary, and (ii) Beneficiary agrees that so long as no
Trigger Event shall have occurred, Beneficiary shall permit Trustor to perform
the aforementioned management responsibilities. Upon Beneficiary's receipt of
the Rents, at Beneficiary's option, it may: (i) pay charges for collection
hereunder, costs of necessary repairs and other costs requisite and necessary
during the continuance of this power of attorney and assignment of Rents, (ii)
pay general and special taxes, insurance premiums, and, thereafter, (iii)
distribute the balance of the Rents pursuant to the provisions of the
Intercreditor Agreement. This power of attorney and assignment of Leases shall
be irrevocable until this Instrument shall have been satisfied and released of
record and the releasing or reconveyance of this Instrument shall act as a
revocation of this power of attorney and assignment of Leases. Subject to
Beneficiary's grant to Trustor of the collection and use of the Rents set forth
above, Beneficiary shall have and hereby expressly reserves the right and
privilege (but assumes no obligation) to demand, collect, sue for, receive and
recover the Rents, or any part thereof, now existing or hereafter made, and
apply the same in accordance with the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, this power of attorney and
assignment of Leases shall be subject and subordinate to Beneficiary's rights
set forth in that certain Assignment of Rents dated of even date herewith, and
if there is any conflict between the terms of this Instrument and the terms of
such Assignment of Rents the terms of such Assignment of Rents shall control For
purposes of this Instrument, a "Trigger Event" shall mean (i) an Enforcement
Event or (ii) a "Material Default" which for purposes of this Instrument shall
mean any event that is (A) an Insolvency Event which is also an Event of Default
or (B) any Event of Default that the Instructing Trustee notifies and instructs
Beneficiary to act in response to pursuant to the Intercreditor Agreement.
Notwithstanding anything herein, upon an Enforcement Event, Beneficiary shall
have the absolute right and option to exercise any and all rights and remedies
provided for in this Instrument and available at law or in equity.

                  All of the property described above, and each item of property
herein described, and all other rights of Trustor in and to such items of
property, not limited to, but including, the Land, the Premises, the Property
Rights, the Fixtures, the Real Property, the Personal Property, the Intangibles,
the Rents and the Leases, is herein collectively referred to as the "Mortgaged
Property". As used herein, "Secured Obligations" means all present and future
indebtedness, liabilities and obligations (for the

avoidance of doubt, including any liabilities and obligations that have been
cash-collateralized by the Trustor), at any time of Trustor under the Relevant
Documents (including this Instrument), including any liability in respect of any
further advances, if any, made under the Relevant Documents, both actual and
contingent and whether incurred solely or jointly or in any other capacity
together with any of the following matters relating to or arising in respect of
those liabilities and obligations: (1) any refinancing, novation, deferral or
extension; (2) any obligation relating to any increase in the amount of such
obligations; (3) any claim for damages or restitution; and (4) any claim as a
result of any recovery by Trustor of a payment or discharge, or
non-allowability, on the grounds of preference; and any amounts that would be
included in any of the above but for any discharge, non-provability or
unenforceability of those amounts in any insolvency or other proceedings
(including interest accruing after the commencement of any insolvency or other
proceedings).

                  This conveyance is in trust to secure prompt payment of all
existing and future Secured Obligations (defined below) due by Trustor to
Beneficiary under the provisions of this Instrument. If Trustor shall satisfy
the conditions set forth in Section 5.3 of the Intercreditor Agreement, then
this conveyance shall be void and of no effect.

                  Nothing herein contained shall be construed as constituting
the Beneficiary or any of its Delegates or any of the Secured Creditors a
mortgagee-in-possession in the absence of the taking of actual possession of the
Mortgaged Property by the Beneficiary or any of its Delegates or any of the
Secured Creditors. Nothing contained in this Instrument shall be construed as
imposing on Beneficiary any of the obligations of the lessor under any lease of
the Mortgaged Property in the absence of an explicit assumption thereof by
Beneficiary. In the exercise of the powers herein granted the Beneficiary, no
liability shall be asserted or enforced against the Beneficiary, all such
liability being expressly waived and released by Trustor.

                  TO HAVE AND TO HOLD the Mortgaged Property, properties, rights
and privileges hereby conveyed or assigned, or intended so to be, unto Trustee,
its successors and assigns, for the benefit of Beneficiary, its successors and
assigns, forever upon the trusts, terms and conditions and for the uses and
purposes herein set forth. The conveyance of the Mortgaged Property provided for
herein is made upon this special trust. If the Secured Obligations are paid and
performed in full and completely as and when due in accordance with their
respective terms, the conveyance provided for herein shall be released upon
satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 5.3 of the Intercreditor
Agreement and shall be thereafter be null and void and may be canceled of record
at the request and cost of the Trustor and title shall revest as provided by
law. If, however, a Trigger Event shall have occurred, then Beneficiary shall be
entitled to invoke the remedies provided for in this granting clause in
connection with the assignment of Leases and Rents, and if an Enforcement Event
shall have occurred, then Beneficiary shall, in addition to all other rights and
remedies at law or equity provided, be entitled to invoke the remedies provided
for in Article IV below including without limitation the right to foreclose this
Instrument by judicial proceedings or, at Beneficiary's election, the right to
demand that the Trustee foreclose this Instrument through exercise of the power
of sale herein granted to Trustee, and upon such demand by Beneficiary, the
Trustee shall have the right and the duty to foreclose this Instrument as herein
provided. Trustor hereby releases and waives all rights under and by virtue of
the homestead exemption laws of the State.

attorney-in-fact for Trustor for purposes of this Instrument.

and interest of Trustor in and to all of the Mortgaged Property, hereafter
acquired by Trustor ("After Acquired Property Interests"), immediately upon such

                              BENEFICIARY'S RIGHTS

         Section 3.01.     Performance of Trustor's Obligations. Trustor agrees

any tax lien or any other lien, encumbrance, suit, proceeding, title or claim
thereof, or (iii) redeem all or any part of the Premises from any tax or
assessment. All moneys paid for any of the purposes herein authorized and all
other moneys advanced by Beneficiary to protect the Mortgaged Property and the
lien hereof shall be additional Secured Obligations and shall become immediately
due and payable without notice and shall bear interest thereon at the rate set
forth in Clause 18.4 of the Intercreditor Agreement until paid to Beneficiary in
full. In making any payment hereby authorized relating to taxes, assessments or
prior or coordinate liens or encumbrances, Beneficiary shall be the sole judge
of the legality, validity and priority thereof and of the amount necessary to be
paid in satisfaction thereof.

                                   ARTICLE IV

                                REMEDIES & RIGHTS

         Section 4.01.     Remedies of Beneficiary. Upon the occurrence of an
Enforcement Event, Beneficiary may, without notice to or demand upon Trustor,
declare this Instrument to be in default, and, in addition to all other rights
and remedies at law or in equity available to Beneficiary or as otherwise
provided for in the Intercreditor Agreement or the Indentures, to the extent
permitted by applicable law, the following provisions shall apply:

                  (a)      Beneficiary's Power of Enforcement. It shall be
lawful for Beneficiary to (i) immediately direct the Trustee to sell the
Mortgaged Property, either in whole or in separate parcels, as prescribed by the
State law, under power of sale, which power is hereby granted to Trustee to the
full extent permitted by the State law, or (ii) immediately foreclose this
Instrument by judicial action. The court in which any proceeding is pending for
the purpose of sale under or foreclosure of this Instrument if such remedy is
taken or any court of competent jurisdiction may, at once or at any time
thereafter, either before or after sale, without notice and without requiring
bond, and without regard to the solvency or insolvency of any person liable for
payment of the Secured Obligations, and without regard to the then value of the
Mortgaged Property or the occupancy thereof as a homestead, appoint a receiver
(the provisions for the appointment of a receiver and assignment of rents being
an express condition upon which the Secured Obligations hereby secured are made)
for the benefit of Beneficiary, with power to collect the Rents, due and to
become due, during such foreclosure suit or proceeding for such sale and the
full statutory period of redemption, notwithstanding any redemption. The
receiver, out of the Rents, when collected, may pay costs incurred in the
management and operation of the Real Property, prior and subordinate liens, if
any, and taxes, assessments, water and other utilities and insurance, then due
or thereafter accruing, and may make and pay for any necessary repairs to the
Real Property or the Personal Property, and may pay all or any part of the
Secured Obligations or other sums secured hereby or any deficiency decree
entered in such foreclosure proceedings. Upon or at any time after the filing of
a suit to

                                       8

<PAGE>

foreclose this Instrument, the court in which such suit is filed shall have full
power to enter an order placing Beneficiary in possession of the Real Property
with the same power granted to a receiver pursuant to this subparagraph and with
all other rights and privileges of a mortgagee-in-possession under applicable
law.

                  (b)      Sale of Mortgaged Property. Subject to the provisions
of the Intercreditor Agreement, upon the occurrence of an Enforcement Event, in
addition to any rights and remedies provided for in the Intercreditor Agreement
or the Indentures, and to the extent permitted by applicable law, the following
provisions shall apply:

                           (i)      Upon the occurrence of an Enforcement Event,
it shall thereupon be the duty of the above named Trustee, or his successor or
substitute, as hereinafter provided, to enforce this trust at the request of the
Beneficiary (which request shall be presumed) and the Trustee shall, sell the
Mortgaged Property conveyed, or a sufficiency thereof, to satisfy the
indebtedness at public outcry to the highest bidder for cash. Sale of the
property shall be advertised for three consecutive weeks preceding the sale in a
newspaper published in the county where the Mortgaged Property is situated, or
if none is so published, then in some newspaper having a general circulation
therein, and by posting a notice for the same time at the courthouse of the same
county. The notice and advertisement shall disclose the names of the original
debtor in this Instrument. Trustor waives the provisions of Section 89-1-55 of
the Mississippi Code of 1972 as amended, if any, as far as this section
restricts the right of Trustee to offer at sale more than 160 acres at a time,
and Trustee may offer the property herein conveyed as a whole, regardless of how
it is described. If the Mortgaged Property is situated in two or more counties,
or in two judicial districts of the same county, Trustee shall have full power
to select in which county, or judicial district, the sale of the property is to
be made, newspaper advertisement published and notice of sale posted, and
Trustee's selection shall be binding upon Trustor and Beneficiary. Should
Beneficiary be a corporation or an unincorporated association, then any officer
thereof may declare Trustor to be in default as provided herein and request
Trustee to sell the Mortgaged Property.

                           (ii)     Subject to the terms and provisions of the
Intercreditor Agreement, the proceeds from any such sale shall be applied by the
Trustee as follows:

                                    FIRST:      To the payment of all  expenses
                                                of advertising, selling and
                                                conveying the Mortgaged
                                                Property, including a reasonable
                                                commission to the acting
                                                Trustee.

                                    SECOND:     To the payment to Beneficiary of
                                                all unpaid Secured Obligations,
                                                including accrued interest to
                                                the date of sale, in such
                                                priority and proportions as
                                                Beneficiary in its discretion
                                                shall deem proper.

                                    THIRD:      The balance, if any, shall be
                                                paid to Trustor.

                           (iii)    Trustee hereunder shall have the right to
sell the Mortgaged Property in whole or in part and in such parcels and order as
he may determine, and the right of sale hereunder shall not be exhausted by one
or more sales, but successive sales may be had until all of the Mortgaged
Property have been legally sold. In the event any sale hereunder is not
completed or is defective in the opinion of Beneficiary, such sale shall not
exhaust the power of sale hereunder, and Beneficiary shall have the right to
cause a subsequent sale or sales to be made by Trustee or any successor or
substitute Trustee. Likewise, Beneficiary may become the purchaser at any such
sale if it is the highest bidder, and

                                       9

<PAGE>

shall have the right, after paying or accounting for all costs of said sale or
sales, to credit the amount of the bid upon the amount of the Secured
Obligations owing, in lieu of cash payment.

                           (iv)     To the extent that the Mississippi Property
Code, or any amendment thereto or judicial interpretation thereof, requires that
the "fair market value" of the Mortgaged Property shall be determined as of the
foreclosure date in order to enforce a deficiency against Trustor or any other
party liable for the repayment of the Secured Obligations, the term "fair market
value" shall include those matters required by law and shall also include the
additional factors as follows:

                                           (a)      The Mortgaged Property is to
                                    be valued "AS IS, WHERE IS" and "WITH ALL
                                    FAULTS" and there shall be no assumption of
                                    restoration of or refurbishment of the
                                    Mortgaged Property after the date of
                                    foreclosure;

                                           (b)      There shall be an assumption
                                    of a prompt resale of the Mortgaged Property
                                    for an all cash sales price by the purchaser
                                    at the foreclosure so that no extensive
                                    holding period should be factored into the
                                    determination of "fair market value" of the
                                    Mortgaged Property;

                                           (c)      An offset to the fair market
                                    value of the Mortgaged Property, as
                                    determined hereunder, shall be made by
                                    deducting from such value the reasonable
                                    estimated closing costs relating to the sale
                                    of the Mortgaged Property including but not
                                    limited to brokerage commissions, title
                                    policy expenses, tax prorations, escrow
                                    fees, and other common charges which are
                                    incurred by a seller of real property
                                    similar to the Mortgaged Property; and

                                           (d)      After consideration of the
                                    factors required by law and those required
                                    above (including the addition of any income
                                    to be generated by the Mortgaged Property),
                                    an additional discount factor shall be
                                    calculated based upon the estimated time it
                                    will take to effectuate a sale of the
                                    Mortgaged Property so that the "fair market
                                    value" as so determined is discounted to be
                                    as of the date of the foreclosure of the
                                    Mortgaged Property.

                  (c)      Additional Provisions Regarding Power of Sale. (i) In
exercising the power of sale herein conferred, after having been instructed by
Beneficiary to do so, the Trustee shall comply with all applicable laws in
effect with respect to the exercise of powers of sale contained in deeds of
trust as of the date of the commencement of the proceeding. Trustor agrees that
in the event of a sale under the power of sale hereunder, Beneficiary shall have
the right to bid thereat. Trustee may require that the successful bidder at any
sale deposit immediately with Trustee cash or certified check in an amount not
to exceed ten percent (10%) of the bid, provided notice of such requirement is
contained in the advertisement of sale. The bid may be rejected if the deposit
is not immediately made, and thereupon the next highest bidder may be declared
to be the purchaser. Such deposit shall be refunded in case a resale is had;
otherwise, it shall be applied to the purchase price. If personal property is
sold hereunder, it need not be at the place of sale; the published notice,
however, shall state the time and place where such personal property may be
inspected prior to sale.

                           (ii)     Notwithstanding the provisions of Section
4.02 of this Instrument, the proceeds of any sale of the Mortgaged Property
pursuant to the power of sale contained herein shall be

                                       10

<PAGE>

applied first to the costs and expenses of foreclosure, including, but not
limited to a Trustee's commission equal to five percent (5%) of the highest bid
and to all costs, expenses and reasonable attorneys' fees incurred by the
Trustee and by the Beneficiary in connection with such sale, with the remaining
proceeds to be applied as provided in Section 4.02 of this Instrument. If a
proceeding for sale pursuant to the power of sale contained herein is commenced
by Trustee but terminated prior to its completion or is otherwise not completed,
the Trustor shall pay all expenses incurred by Trustee, including reasonable
attorneys' fees and a partial Trustee's commission equal to the greater of (A)
the reasonable time and expense charges of such Trustee and (B) an amount
computed on the basis of a percentage of the fair market value of the Mortgaged
Property (as such fair market value shall be agreed upon by Trustor and
Beneficiary, or if not agreed upon, then as determined by the Clerk of the
Superior Court with jurisdiction over such matters, upon evidence submitted by
the parties) in accordance with the following schedule, to wit: one tenth of one
percent (.1%) of such fair market value before the Trustee issues a notice of
hearing on the right to sell; eleven one hundredths of one percent (.11%) of
such fair market value after issuance of said notice; twelve one hundredths of
one percent (.12%) of such fair market value after such hearing; and thirteen
one hundredths of one percent (.13%) of such fair market value after the initial
sale.

         Section 4.02.     Application of the Rents or Proceeds from Foreclosure
or Sale. The Rents and the proceeds of any sale (whether through a foreclosure
proceeding or Beneficiary's exercise of the power of sale) shall be distributed
and applied in accordance with the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement. Subject
to Section 4.01(c)(ii) of this Instrument in any foreclosure of this Instrument
by judicial action, or any sale of the Mortgaged Property under the power of
sale herein granted, subject to the terms and provisions of the Intercreditor
Agreement, there shall be allowed (and included in the decree for sale in the
event of a foreclosure by judicial action) to be paid out of the Rents or the
proceeds of such foreclosure proceeding and/or sale:

                  (a)      Secured Obligations. All of the Secured Obligations
and other sums secured hereby which then remain unpaid;

                  (b)      Other Advances. All other items advanced or paid by
Beneficiary pursuant to this Instrument, with interest thereon at the rate set
forth in Clause 18.4 of the Intercreditor Agreement from the date of
advancement; and

                  (c)      Costs, Fees and Other Expenses. All court costs,
reasonable in-house and outside attorneys' and paralegals' fees and expenses,
costs of environmental surveys and guard or other security services, appraiser's
fees, advertising costs, notice expenses, expenditures for documentary and
expert evidence, stenographer's charges, publication costs, and costs (which may
be estimated as to items to be expended after entry of the decree) of procuring
all abstracts of title, title searches and examinations, title guarantees, title
insurance policies, surveys, and similar data with respect to title which
Beneficiary may deem necessary. All such expenses shall become additional
Secured Obligations and be immediately due and payable, with interest thereon at
the rate set forth in Clause 18.4 of the Intercreditor Agreement, when paid or
incurred by Beneficiary or Trustee in connection with any proceedings,
including, but not limited to, probate and bankruptcy proceedings, to which
Beneficiary or Trustee shall be a party, either as plaintiff, claimant or
defendant, by reason of this Instrument or any indebtedness hereby secured or in
connection with the preparations for the commencement of any suit for the
foreclosure, whether or not actually commenced, or sale under the power of sale
herein granted.

         Section 4.03.     Cumulative Remedies; Delay or Omission Not a Waiver.
Each remedy or right of Beneficiary shall not be exclusive of, but shall be in
addition to, every other remedy or right now or hereafter existing at law or in
equity. No delay in the exercise or omission to exercise any remedy or right
accruing on the occurrence or existence of any Material Default or Enforcement
Event shall impair

                                       11

<PAGE>

any such remedy or right or be construed to be a waiver of any such Material
Default or Enforcement Event or acquiescence therein, nor shall it affect any
subsequent Material Default or Enforcement Event the same or different nature.
Every such remedy or right may be exercised concurrently or independently and
when and as often as may be deemed expedient by Beneficiary. The acceptance by
Beneficiary, any successor administrative agent or any secured party of any
payment less than the amount of the Secured Obligation in question shall be
deemed to be an acceptance on account only and shall not be construed as a
waiver of any Material Default or Enforcement Event with respect thereto, and
the acceptance by Beneficiary, any successor administrative agent or any secured
party of any payment of, or on account of, any Secured Obligation shall not be
deemed to be a waiver of any Material Default or Enforcement Event other
occurrence hereunder or under any Relevant Documents with respect to any other
Secured Obligation. If Beneficiary has proceeded to enforce any remedy or right
hereunder or with respect hereto by foreclosure, sale, entry or otherwise, it
may compromise, discontinue or abandon such proceeding for any reason without
notice to Trustor or any other party (except any other agent, the Secured
Creditors or the other secured parties to the extent required by any Relevant
Documents); and, if any such proceeding shall be discontinued, abandoned or
determined adversely for any reason, Trustor and Beneficiary shall retain and be
restored to their former positions and rights hereunder with respect to the
Mortgaged Property, subject to the lien hereof except to the extent any such
adverse determination specifically provides to the contrary.

         Section 4.04.     Beneficiary's Remedies against Multiple Parcels. If
more than one property, lot or parcel is covered by this Instrument, and if this
Instrument is foreclosed upon, or judgment is entered upon any Secured
Obligations, or if Trustee effects a trustee's sale under power of sale,
execution may be made upon or Trustee may effect a trustee's sale against any
one or more of the properties, lots or parcels and not upon the others, or upon
all of such properties or parcels, either together or separately, and at
different times or at the same time, and execution sales or trustee's sale
herein granted may likewise be conducted separately or concurrently, in each
case at Beneficiary's election.

         Section 4.05.     No Merger. In the event of a foreclosure of this
Instrument or any other mortgage or deed of trust securing the Secured
Obligations, the Secured Obligations then due to the Beneficiary shall not be
merged into any decree of foreclosure entered by the court, and Beneficiary may
concurrently or subsequently seek to foreclose one or more other deeds of trust
which also secure said Secured Obligations.

         Section 4.06.     Waivers by Trustor. To the fullest extent permitted
under applicable law, Trustor shall not assert, and hereby irrevocably waives,
any right or defense Trustor may have under any statute or rule of law or equity
now or hereafter in effect relating to (a) homestead exemption, extension,
moratorium, stay, redemption, marshaling of the Mortgaged Property or the other
assets of Trustor, sale of the Mortgaged Property in any order or notice of
deficiency or intention to accelerate any Secured Obligation, (b) impairment of
any right of subrogation or reimbursement, (c) any requirement that at any time
any action must be taken against any other party, any portion of the Mortgaged
Property or any other asset of Trustor or any other party, (d) any provision
barring or limiting the right of Beneficiary to sell any Mortgaged Property
after any other sale of any other Mortgaged Property or any other action against
Trustor or any other party, (e) any provision barring or limiting the recovery
by Beneficiary of a deficiency after any sale of the Mortgaged Property, (f) any
other provision of applicable law which shall defeat, limit or adversely affect
any right or remedy of Beneficiary or any secured party under or with respect to
this Instrument or any other Relevant Documents as it relates to any Mortgaged
Property, (g) the right of Beneficiary to foreclose this Instrument in its own
name on behalf of all of the secured parties by judicial action as the real
party in interest without the necessity of joining any secured party, or (h) the
Guarantees, including, without limitation, notice of existence, creation or
incurring of any new or additional indebtedness or obligation or of any action
or non-action on the part of Trustor or the Issuer,

                                       12

<PAGE>

Beneficiary or any Secured Creditor or on the part of any person whomsoever
under the Intercreditor Agreement, this Instrument or any of the other Relevant
Documents in connection with any obligation or evidence of indebtedness held by
Beneficiary, as Security Trustee for the Secured Creditors, or held by any of
the Secured Creditors. Appraisement of the Premises is hereby expressly waived,
at the option of Beneficiary, which such option shall be executed prior to the
time any judgment is tendered at foreclosure.

         Section 4.07.     Jurisdiction and Process. (a) To the extent permitted
under applicable law, in any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or
relating to this Instrument or any other Relevant Documents insofar and only
insofar as it relates to any Mortgaged Property, Trustor (i) irrevocably
consents to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any state or federal court sitting
in which the Premises is located and irrevocably waives any defense or objection
which it may now or hereafter have to the jurisdiction of such court or the
venue of such court or the convenience of such court as the forum for any such
suit, action or proceeding, and (ii) irrevocably consents to the service of (A)
any process in accordance with applicable law in any such suit, action or
proceeding, or (B) any notice relating to any sale, or the exercise of any other
remedy by Beneficiary hereunder by mailing a copy of such process or notice by
United States registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt
requested to Trustor at its address specified in or pursuant to Section 5.01;
such service to be effective in accordance with applicable law.

                  (b)      Nothing in this Section shall affect the right of
Beneficiary to bring any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating
to this Instrument, or any other Relevant Documents in any court having
jurisdiction under the provisions therein or applicable law or to serve any
process, notice of sale or other notice in any manner permitted by this
Instrument, the other Relevant Documents or applicable law.

         Section 4.08.     Concerning Beneficiary. (a) Beneficiary is authorized
to take all such action as is provided to be taken by it as Beneficiary
hereunder and all such other action incidental thereto subject to the terms and
provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement. As to any matters not expressly
provided for herein (including the timing and methods of realization upon the
Mortgaged Property), Beneficiary shall, in addition, act or refrain from acting
in accordance with the terms and provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement.
Beneficiary shall not be responsible for the existence, genuineness or value of
any of the Mortgaged Property or for the validity, perfection, priority or
enforceability of the lien of this Instrument on any of the Mortgaged Property,
whether impaired by operation of law or by reason of any action or omission to
act on its part hereunder. Beneficiary shall have the right, but shall have no
duty, to ascertain or inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the
terms of this Instrument by Trustor.

                  (b)      Beneficiary may, at any time, delegate by power of
attorney or otherwise to any person(s) or entity(ies) the ability to exercise
any or all of the rights, powers and discretions vested in it by this Instrument
or appoint any person or entity to act as additional Beneficiary or as
co-trustee for the purpose of this Instrument, in accordance with and subject to
the terms of Clause 16 of the Intercreditor Agreement.

                  (c)      In the event that Beneficiary acts as Trustor's
attorney in fact or otherwise as its agent as provided for under this
Instrument, Trustor shall ratify and confirm all things done and all documents
executed by Beneficiary in the exercise or purported exercise of all or any of
such powers or acts..

         Section 5.01.     Notices. Except as otherwise provided herein, all
communication required or permitted to be given in connection with this
Instrument shall be in writing, and shall be given or served in the manner and

Property marshalled upon any foreclosure of the lien hereof and agrees that
Trustee, or any court having jurisdiction to foreclose such lien may sell the
Mortgaged Property in part or as an entirety. Trustor represents that it has
been authorized to, and Trustor does hereby waive to the full extent permitted

balances of loan advances and other extensions of credit may or may not be
evidenced by notes executed pursuant to the applicable Relevant Documents.

designation in writing of a successor or substitute trustee, who shall, without
conveyance from the Trustee predecessor, thereupon become vested with and
succeed to all the title, estate, powers and duties given to the Trustee herein
named, the same as if the successor or substitute trustee had been named
original Trustee herein; and such right to appoint a successor or substitute
trustee shall exist as often and whenever the Beneficiary desires. An
instrument, executed by the Beneficiary and duly acknowledged and recorded in
the office of the recorder of the county or counties where the Mortgaged
Property is situated, shall be conclusive proof of proper substitution of such
successor trustee or trustees. Said instrument should contain the name of the
original Trustor, Trustee and Beneficiary hereunder, the recording information
where this Instrument is recorded and the name and address of the new trustee.

         Section 5.15.     FINAL AGREEMENT. THIS INSTRUMENT REPRESENTS THE FINAL

OR ARISING OUT OF, THIS INSTRUMENT OR THE OTHER RELEVANT DOCUMENTS, ANY
AGREEMENTS ARISING UNDER OR RELATING TO THIS INSTRUMENT, ANY MORTGAGED PROPERTY
SECURING THE SECURED OBLIGATIONS, OR THE DEALINGS OR RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN
TRUSTOR AND BENEFICIARY. NEITHER TRUSTOR NOR BENEFICIARY, INCLUDING ANY ASSIGNEE

ACTION. NEITHER TRUSTOR NOR BENEFICIARY SHALL SEEK TO CONSOLIDATE ANY SUCH

THESE PROVISIONS SHALL BE SUBJECT TO NO EXCEPTIONS. NEITHER TRUSTOR NOR
BENEFICIARY HAS IN ANY WAY AGREED WITH OR REPRESENTED TO THE OTHER THAT THE
PROVISIONS OF THIS PARAGRAPH WILL NOT BE FULLY ENFORCED IN ALL INSTANCES.

         Section 5.18.     Reduction of Secured Amount. In the event that the
maximum principal amount secured by this Instrument is less than the aggregate
Secured Obligations then the amount secured hereby shall be reduced only by the
last and final sums that the Trustor repays with respect to the Secured
Obligations and shall not be reduced by any intervening repayments of the
Secured Obligations. So long as the balance of the Secured Obligations exceeds
the amount secured hereby, any payments of the Secured Obligations shall not be
deemed to be applied against, or to reduce, the portion of the Secured
Obligations secured by this Instrument. Such payments shall instead be deemed to
reduce only such portions of the Secured Obligations as are secured by deeds of
trust or mortgages encumbering real property located outside the State of
Mississippi which secure the entire Secured Obligations (except to the extent,
if any, that specific deeds of trust or mortgages in such states contain
specific limitations on the amount secured).
