Imposition or lien having priority over the Lien of this Deed of Trust, or in
the event any other amount required to be paid by Trustor hereunder shall remain
unpaid and Trustor is not contesting such amount pursuant to the terms hereof or
the Loan Agreement, Beneficiary shall have the right to pay such amount and
shall have the right to declare immediately due and payable any such amount so
paid. Any amount so paid by Beneficiary shall bear interest at the default
interest rate specified in Section 2.6(c) of the Loan Agreement ("Default Rate")
from the date of payment by Beneficiary, shall constitute an additional Secured
Obligation secured hereby, prior to any right, title or interest in or claim
upon the Trust Estate attaching or accruing subsequent to the Lien of this Deed
of Trust shall be secured by this Deed of Trust and shall be payable by Trustor
to Beneficiary within thirty (30) days after receipt by Trustor of written
demand.

            4.8.2 Except as otherwise provided herein, in the Loan Agreement or
in the other Loan Documents, all sums payable by Trustor hereunder or under the
other Loan Documents 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 by reason of (i) any damage to
or destruction of or any condemnation or similar taking of the Trust Estate or
any part thereof; (ii) any restriction or prevention of or interference with any
use of the Trust Estate or any part thereof; (iii) any title defect or
encumbrance or any eviction from the


                                      20.
<PAGE>
Real Property or the Improvements or any part thereof by title paramount or
otherwise; (iv) any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, composition,
adjustment, 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; (v)
any claim which Trustor has or might have against Beneficiary; (vi) any default
or failure on the part of Beneficiary to perform or comply with any of the terms
hereof or of any other agreement with Trustor; or (vii) any other occurrence
whatsoever, whether similar or dissimilar to the foregoing; whether or not
Trustor shall have notice or knowledge of any of the foregoing. Trustor waives
all rights now or hereafter by statute or otherwise to any abatement,
suspension, deferment, diminution or reduction of any sum secured hereby and
payable by Trustor.

      Section 4.9 Litigation. Trustor will, promptly upon obtaining actual
knowledge thereof, give notice in writing to Beneficiary of any litigation
commenced that is likely to have a material adverse effect on the Real Property
or the Liens created hereby other than unlawful detainer proceedings brought by
Trustor in connection with the Leases.

      Section 4.10 Certain Reports. Trustor will, promptly and in any event
within fifteen (15) days after actual receipt by Trustor thereof, deliver to
Beneficiary a copy of any written notice or citation concerning any actual,
alleged or suspected violation of any Environmental Requirements or liability of
Trustor for Environmental Damages in connection with the Real Property or past
or present activities of any Person thereon.

      Section 4.11 Tax Receipts. Subject to the provisions of Section 4.6
hereof, Trustor shall provide to Beneficiary, within thirty (30) days after
demand made therefor, bills (which shall be receipted from and after the date
receipted bills are obtainable) showing the payment to the extent then, due of
all taxes, assessments including those payable in periodic installments), water
rates, sewer rates, and/or any other Imposition that have become a lien (other
than an inchoate lien) upon the Trust Estate.

      Section 4.12 FIRPTA Affidavit. Trustor hereby represents and warrants to
Beneficiary under penalty of perjury that:

            (i)      Trustor's U.S. Taxpayer Identification Number is
91-2118674;

            (ii)     Trustor's business address is set forth in the preamble
hereto; and

            (iii)       Trustor is not a "foreign person" within the meaning of
Sections 1445 and 7701 of the Code (i.e., Trustor is not a nonresident alien,
foreign corporation, foreign partnership, foreign trust or foreign estate as
those terms are defined in the Code and regulations promulgated thereunder).

Trustor agrees to indemnify, defend, protect and hold Beneficiary and
Beneficiary's agents harmless of, from and against any and all loss, liability,
costs, damages, claims or causes of


                                      21.
<PAGE>
action including reasonable attorneys' fees, costs and expenses which may be
actually incurred by Beneficiary or Beneficiary's agents by reason of any
failure of any representation or warranty made by Trustor in this Section 4.12
to be true and correct in all respects, including, but not limited to, any
liability for failure to withhold any amount required under Code Section 1445 in
the event of foreclosure or other transfer of the Real Property.

      Section 4.13 Preservation of Contractual Rights. Except as otherwise
expressly permitted by the Loan Agreement Trustor shall, prior to delinquency,
default or forfeiture, perform all material obligations and satisfy all material
conditions required on its part to be satisfied to preserve its rights and
privileges under any contract, lease, license, permit or other authorization (a)
under which it holds any Tangible Property, or (b) which constitutes part of the
Intangible Property.

      Section 4.14 Tax Service Contract. At any time after the occurrence of an
Event of Default (whether or not such Event of Default is cured), at the request
of Beneficiary and at Trustor's and/or its permitted successor's sole cost and
expense, Beneficiary shall be furnished a tax service contract in form
satisfactory to Beneficiary issued by a tax reporting agency satisfactory to
Beneficiary which contract shall remain in force until indefeasible discharge in
full of the Secured Obligations.

      Section 4.15 Liens. Trustor shall pay and promptly discharge, at Trustor's
cost and expense, all Liens upon the Trust Estate, or any part thereof or
interest therein other than the Permitted Liens. Trustor shall have the right to
contest in good faith the validity of any such Lien, provided Trustor shall
first post such bond or furnish such other security as may be reasonably
required by Beneficiary or as required by Applicable Law to release such Lien,
and provided, however, that Trustor shall thereafter diligently proceed to cause
such Lien to be removed and discharged. If Trustor shall fail to so diligently
proceed or to discharge any such Lien, then, upon the occurrence and continuance
of an Event of Default (unless the Real Property is in danger of being sold,
forfeited, terminated, canceled or lost as a result of such contest, in which
case, Beneficiary may act in the absence of an Event of Default) and in addition
to any other right or remedy of Beneficiary, Beneficiary may, but shall not be
obligated to, discharge the same, either by paying the amount claimed to be due,
or by procuring the discharge of such Lien by depositing in court a bond for the
amount claimed or otherwise giving security for such Lien, or in such manner as
is or may be prescribed by law. Any amount so paid by Beneficiary shall bear
interest at the Default Rate from the date of payment by Beneficiary, shall
constitute an additional Secured Obligation secured hereby, prior to any right,
title or interest in or claim upon the Trust Estate attaching or accruing
subsequent to the Lien of this Deed of Trust, shall be secured by this Deed of
Trust and shall be payable by Trustor to Beneficiary upon demand.

      Section 4.16 Inspection. Trustor shall permit Beneficiary, upon 24 hours'
prior notice, to enter upon and inspect, during normal business hours, the Real
Property and the construction and operation thereof for such purposes reasonably
deemed necessary by Beneficiary, it being agreed by Trustor that Beneficiary's
good faith belief of the existence of a past or present release


                                      22.
<PAGE>
or threatened release of any Hazardous Material into, onto, beneath or from the
Real Property shall be conclusively deemed reasonable; provided, however, that
no such prior notice shall be necessary and such inspection may occur at any
time if (l) Beneficiary reasonably believes that an emergency exists or is
imminent or (ii) the giving or delivery of such notice is prohibited or stayed
by Applicable Laws.

                                   ARTICLE 5.

                               NEGATIVE COVENANTS

       Trustor hereby covenants to and agrees with Beneficiary as follows:

      Section 6.1 Restrictive Uses. Trustor covenants not to suffer any Liens
against the Trust Estate (other than Permitted Liens).

      Section 6.2 Transferability. Trustor shall not suffer or permit any sale,
conveyance, mortgage, pledge, hypothecation, encumbrance, lease, assignment or
other transfer of the Trust Estate or any portion thereof or any interest
therein without in each instance obtaining the prior written consent of
Beneficiary, except as permitted under the Loan Agreement.

      Section 6.3 No Cooperative or Condominium. Trustor shall not operate or
permit the Real Property to be operated as a cooperative or condominium building
or buildings in which the tenants or occupants participate in the ownership,
control or management of the Real Property or any part thereof, as tenant
stockholders or otherwise.

      Section 6.4 Impairment of Deed of Trust. Trustor shall not suffer waste of
the Real Property or do or suffer any act or thing to be done, or omit to do any
act or thing, if such act or thing, or such forbearance or omission, would
materially impair the Real Property or the security of this Deed of Trust.

                                   ARTICLE 7.

                           CASUALTIES AND CONDEMNATION

      Section 7.1 Casualties. Trustor will notify Beneficiary in writing
promptly after loss or damage caused by fire, wind or other casualty to the
Property (a) that is in excess of $20,000, or (b) that would individually, or in
the aggregate, have a material adverse effect on the value of


                                      23.
<PAGE>
the Improvements or Real Property or materially and adversely affect Trustor's
use or operation of the Improvements or Real Property ("Casualty").

            7.1.1 Any monies received as payment for any loss under any
insurance policy shall be treated in accordance with the applicable provisions
of the Loan Agreement and shall be released to Trustor or applied as set forth
in the applicable provisions of the Loan Agreement.

      Section 7.2 Condemnation. Trustor, immediately upon obtaining knowledge of
the institution of any proceedings for the condemnation of all or substantially
all of the Real Property, will notify Trustee and Beneficiary of the pendency of
such proceedings. Trustee and Beneficiary may participate in any such
proceedings and Trustor from time to time will deliver to Beneficiary all
instruments requested by Beneficiary to permit such participation; provided,
however, that Trustor shall have the sole right to participate in and settle any
and all such proceedings unless an Event of Default then exists. In any such
condemnation proceedings Beneficiary may be represented by counsel selected by
Beneficiary at the sole cost and expense of Trustor; provided, however, that
Trustor shall have the sole right to participate in and settle any and all such
proceedings unless an Event of Default then exists. Trustor shall cause the net
proceeds of any award or compensation or payment in lieu of settlement thereof,
to be applied as set forth in the Loan Agreement. To the extent permitted by
Applicable Laws, Trustor hereby specifically, unconditionally and irrevocably
waives all rights of a property owner granted under Applicable Laws which
provide for allocation of condemnation proceeds between a property owner and a
lienholder.

                                   ARTICLE 8.

                             REMEDIES OF BENEFICIARY

      Section 8.1 Event of Default. Subject to any applicable cure period
provided for in the Loan Agreement or in this Deed of Trust, any of the
following shall be deemed to be an "Event of Default" hereunder if not cured
within such applicable cure period:

            8.1.1 The occurrence of one or more "Events of Default" (as defined
in Section 8 of the Loan Agreement) shall constitute an Event of Default under
this Deed of Trust (including, without limitation, by reason of any
cross-default provisions thereof).

            8.1.2 Failure of Trustor to perform any of the terms, covenants and
conditions in this Deed of Trust; provided, however, it shall not be an Event of
Default hereunder if such failure is curable, Trustor commences to cure such
failure within thirty (30) days of notice from Beneficiary, and Trustor
diligently prosecutes such cure to completion within sixty (60) days after
notice of such failure, but in no event beyond the Maturity Date (as defined in
the Loan Agreement); and provided that with respect to the environmental
covenants


                                      24.
<PAGE>
contained in Section 11.2 hereof, no Event of Default shall be deemed to have
occurred unless any such covenant is breached in any material respect.

            8.1.3 Any statement, representation or warranty given by Trustor to
Trustee or Beneficiary in any of the Loan Documents, in connection with the Loan
Agreement or in any other document provided by Trustor, including this Deed of
Trust, is found to be materially false or misleading and such statement,
representation or warranty continues to be materially false or misleading within
sixty (60) days after notice from Beneficiary of such statement, representation
or warranty was made, but in no event beyond the Maturity Date (as defined in
the Loan Agreement).

            8.1.4 Any transfer of the Real Property or any portion thereof in
violation of Section 6.2. hereof.

      Section 8.2 Remedies. Beneficiary shall be and hereby is authorized and
empowered, for and in the name and on behalf of Trustor, and shall be and hereby
is irrevocably made, constituted and appointed Trustor's true and lawful
attorney in fact, coupled with an interest and with full power of substitution,
delegation and revocation, to do the following at any time after and during the
continuance of an Event of Default.

            8.2.1 In person, by agent, or by a receiver, and without regard to
the adequacy of security, the solvency of Trustor or any other matter, (i) enter
upon and take possession of the property, or any part thereof, in its own name
or in the name of Trustee, (ii) inspect the Real Property for the purpose of
determining the existence, location, nature and magnitude of any past or present
release of Hazardous Materials into, onto, beneath or from the Real Property,
(iii) negotiate with Governmental Authorities with respect to compliance with
Environmental Requirements, including, but not limited to, spending Rents in
connection with any cleanup, remediation or other response action with respect
to Hazardous Materials or (v) sue for or otherwise collect the Rents, issues and
profits thereof and apply the same, less costs and expenses of operation and
collection, including reasonable attorneys' fees actually incurred, to the
Secured Obligations, all in such order as Beneficiary may determine. The
entering upon and taking possession of said Real Property, the collection of
such Rents, issues and profits and the application thereof as aforesaid shall
not cure or waive any default or notice of default hereunder or invalidate any
act done pursuant to such notice, or deprive Beneficiary of the benefits of any
indemnity set forth herein;

            8.2.2 Commence an action to foreclose this Deed of Trust in the
manner provided by Applicable Laws for the foreclosure of mortgages or deeds of
trust of real property;

            8.2.3 Seek a judgment that Trustor has breached its covenants,
representations and/or warranties set forth in this Deed of Trust, or any other
Loan Document regarding Environmental Requirements and/or Hazardous Materials,
by commencing, maintaining and concluding, and enforcing a judgment arising
from, an action for breach of


                                      25.
<PAGE>
contract, without regard to whether Beneficiary has commenced an action to
foreclose this Deed of Trust, and to seek injunctive or other appropriate
equitable relief and/or the recovery of any and all Environmental Damages, it
being conclusively presumed between Trustor and Beneficiary that any reasonable
costs advanced or expenses actually incurred by Beneficiary relating to the
cleanup, remediation or other response action with respect to the Real Property
were made or incurred by Beneficiary in good faith.

            8.2.4 Deliver to Trustee a written declaration of default for sale,
and a written notice of default and election to cause the Trust Estate to be
sold, which notice Trustee or Beneficiary shall cause to be duly filed for
record.

            8.2.5 Declare the Secured Obligations to become immediately due and
payable pursuant to Section 9.1 of the Loan Agreement. If the Beneficiary so
declares and Trustor fails to make such payment as and when due, then
Beneficiary may waive its Liens against any parcel of the Real Property or all
or any portion of the Fixtures or Personal Property attached to the Real
Property, to the extent such property is determined to be environmentally
impaired, and to exercise any and all rights of an unsecured creditor against
Trustor and all of Trustor's assets for the recovery of any deficiency,
including, but not limited to, seeking an attachment order. TRUSTOR ACKNOWLEDGES
AND AGREES THAT NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, IN
THIS DEED OF TRUST OR IN ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS (INCLUDING, WITHOUT
LIMITATION, ANY NONRECOURSE OR EXCULPATORY LANGUAGE, IF ANY), TRUSTOR SHALL BE
PERSONALLY LIABLE FOR ANY RECOVERY DESCRIBED IN THIS PARAGRAPH 8.2.5. AND SUCH
LIABILITY SHALL NOT BE LIMITED TO THE AMOUNT OF THE INDEBTEDNESS CURRENTLY
OUTSTANDING UNDER THE LOAN AGREEMENT.

            8.2.6 With respect to any Personal Property, proceed as to both the
real and personal property in accordance with Beneficiary's rights and remedies
in respect of the Real Property, or proceed to sell said Personal Property
separately and without regard to the Real Property in accordance with
Beneficiary's rights and remedies; and/or

            8.2.7 Pursue any and all other remedies it may have, at law or in
equity, or under any other document or instrument, except as otherwise provided
in the Loan Agreement.

      Section 8.3 Power of Sale. Should Beneficiary elect to foreclose by
exercise of the power of sale herein contained, Beneficiary shall notify Trustee
and shall deposit with Trustee this Deed of Trust and such receipts and evidence
of expenditures made and secured hereby as Trustee may require.

            8.3.1 Upon receipt of such notice from Beneficiary, Trustee shall
cause to be recorded, published and delivered to Trustor notices of default and
sale to be given in


                                      26.
<PAGE>
accordance with the provisions of Applicable Laws. Trustee shall, without demand
on Trustor, after lapse of such time as may then be required by Applicable Laws
and after recordation of such notice of default and after notice of sale having
been given as required by law, sell the Trust Estate at the time and place of
sale fixed by it in said notice of sale, either as a whole, or in separate lots
or parcels or items as Trustee shall deem expedient or as Beneficiary may
request, 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. After the expiration of the required redemption periods, Trustee shall
deliver to such purchaser or purchasers thereof its good and sufficient deed or
deeds 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, without
limitation, Trustor or Beneficiary, may purchase at such sale and Trustor hereby
covenants to warrant and defend the title of such purchaser or purchasers
against the claims of all Persons claiming by, through or under Trustor. If
allowed by law, Beneficiary, if it is the purchaser, may apply the amount of the
Secured Obligations then due and payable toward payment of the purchase price.
Trustor hereby waives its right, if any, to require that the Real Property be
sold as separate tracts or units in the event of foreclosure.

            8.3.2 Trustee, upon such sale and after expiration of the applicable
redemption periods, to the extent permitted by Applicable Laws, shall make
(without any covenant or warranty, express or implied), execute and, after due
payment made, deliver to purchaser or purchasers, or his or their heirs or
assigns, a deed or deeds, or other record or records of interest, as the case
may be, in and to the Real Property so sold that shall convey to the purchaser
all the title and interest of Trustor in the Real Property (or the portion
thereof sold), and after deducting all costs, fees and expenses of Trustee and
of this Deed of Trust, including costs of evidence of title in connection with
sale, shall apply the proceeds of sale to payment of (i) all sums expended under
the terms hereof, not then repaid, with accrued interest at the Default Rate and
(ii) all other sums then secured hereby and the remainder, if any, to the Person
or Persons legally entitled thereto.

            8.3.3 Trustee may postpone sale of all or any portion of the Trust
Estate by public announcement at such time and place of sale, or as otherwise
permitted by Applicable Laws, and from time to time thereafter may postpone such
sale by public announcement at the time fixed by the preceding postponement or
subsequently noticed sale, and without further notice make such sale at the time
fixed by the last postponement, or may, in its discretion, give a new notice of
sale. Beneficiary may rescind any notice of default at any time before Trustee's
sale by executing a notice of rescission or withdrawal of sale and causing the
recording of same. The recordation of such notice of rescission or withdrawal of
sale shall constitute a cancellation of any prior declaration of default and
demand for sale. The exercise by Beneficiary of the right of rescission shall
not constitute a waiver of any default then existing or subsequently occurring,
or impair the right of Beneficiary to execute other declarations of default and
demand for sale, or notices of default and of election to cause the Real
Property to be sold nor otherwise affect the


                                      27.
<PAGE>
Loan Documents or this Deed of Trust, or any of the rights, obligations or
remedies of Beneficiary or Trustee hereunder.

      Section 8.4 Intentionally Omitted.

      Section 8.5 Protection of Security. If an Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing, then upon at least fifteen (15) days prior written
notice to Trustor and without releasing Trustor from any obligations or defaults
hereunder, Beneficiary or Trustee shall have the right, but not the obligation,
to: (i) make payment or otherwise perform such obligations of Trustor upon which
such Event of Default is based in such manner and to such extent as either may
reasonably deem necessary to protect the security hereof, Beneficiary and
Trustee being authorized to enter upon the Real Property for such purpose; (ii)
appear in and defend any action or proceeding purporting to affect, in any
manner whatsoever, the Secured Obligations, the security hereof or the rights or
powers of Beneficiary or (iii) pay, purchase or compromise any encumbrance,
charge or lien (other than Permitted Liens); (iv) advance any and all costs and
expenses reasonably necessary to cure or pay Environmental Damages or otherwise
to comply with Environmental Requirements; and (v) in exercising any such
powers, pay necessary expenses, employ counsel and pay attorneys' fees. Trustor
hereby agrees to repay within thirty (30) days after receipt of written demand
all reasonable sums actually expended by Trustee or Beneficiary pursuant to this
Section 8.5. with interest at the Default Rate from the date of expenditure by
Beneficiary, and such sums, with interest shall be secured hereby.

      Section 8.6 Receiver. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, Beneficiary, as a matter of strict right and without regard to the
then value of the Real Property, shall have the right to apply, ex parte or
otherwise, to any court having jurisdiction to appoint a Receiver or Receivers
of the Real Property, subject to Applicable Gaming Laws. Any such Receiver or
Receivers shall have all the powers and duties of receivers under Applicable
Laws in like or similar cases and all the powers and duties of Beneficiary in
case of entry as provided in this Deed of Trust, and shall continue as such and
exercise all such powers until the date of confirmation of sale, unless such
receivership is sooner terminated.

      Section 8.7 Curing of Defaults.

            8.7.1 If Trustor shall at any time fail to perform or comply with
any of the terms, covenants and conditions required on Trustor's part to be
performed and complied with under this Deed of Trust or any other Loan Document
relating to the Trust Estate (after the lapse of any cure period provided
therein), then Beneficiary shall have the right, but not the obligation, upon
the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, without
waiving or releasing any of the Secured Obligations, to:

            8.7.1.1 make any payments thereunder payable by Trustor and take
out, pay for and maintain any of the insurance policies provided for therein,
and/or


                                      28.
<PAGE>
            8.7.1.2 after the expiration of any applicable grace period and
subject to Trustor's rights to contest certain obligations specifically granted
hereby, perform any such other acts thereunder on the part of Trustor to be
performed and enter upon the Real Property and incur reasonable attorneys' fees
and expenses for such purpose.

            8.7.2 The making by Beneficiary of such payment out of Beneficiary's
own funds shall not, however, be deemed to cure such default by Trustor, and the
same shall not be so cured unless and until Trustor shall have reimbursed
Beneficiary within the applicable cure period for such payment including
interest at the Default Rate from the date of such expenditure. All sums so paid
and all reasonable costs and expenses actually incurred and paid by Beneficiary
in connection with the performance of any such act, together with interest on
unpaid balances thereof at the Default Rate from the respective dates of
Beneficiary's making of each such payment, shall be secured by the lien of this
Deed of Trust, prior to any right, title or, interest in or claim upon the Real
Property attaching or accruing subsequent to the lien of this Deed of Trust and
shall be payable by Trustor to Beneficiary within thirty (30) days after receipt
of written demand.

      Section 8.8 Remedies Cumulative. All remedies of Beneficiary and all other
rights and provided for herein are cumulative and shall be in addition to any
remedies provided in the other Loan Documents or provided by Applicable Law,
including any banker's lien and right of offset. The exercise of any right or
remedy by Beneficiary hereunder shall not in any way constitute a cure or waiver
of default hereunder or under the Loan Documents, or invalidate any act done
pursuant to any notice of default, or prejudice Beneficiary in the exercise of
any of its rights hereunder or under the other Loan Documents unless, in the
exercise of said rights, all Secured Obligations are fully discharged.

                      SECURITY AGREEMENT AND FIXTURE FILING

Interest") in, all right, title, claim, estate and interest in and to all

Applicable Gaming Laws, Trustor hereby absolutely and unconditionally assigns
and transfers to Beneficiary all of the Rents, whether now due, past due or to
become due, and hereby gives to and confers upon Beneficiary the right, power
and authority to collect such Rents and apply the same to the Secured
Obligations secured hereby. Trustor irrevocably appoints Beneficiary, as its
true and lawful attorney, at the option of Beneficiary at any time while an
Event of Default exists, to demand, receive and enforce payment, to give
receipts, releases and satisfactions, and to sue, either in the name of Trustor
or in the name of Beneficiary, for all such Rents and apply the same to the
Secured Obligations secured hereby. It is understood and agreed that neither the
foregoing assignment of Rents to Beneficiary nor the exercise by Beneficiary or
any of its rights or remedies under this Deed of Trust shall be deemed to make
Beneficiary a "mortgagee-in-possession" or otherwise responsible or liable in
any manner with respect to the Real Property or the use, occupancy, enjoyment or
operation of all or any portion thereof, unless


                                      35.
<PAGE>
and until Beneficiary, in person or by its own agent, assumes actual possession
thereof, nor shall appointment of a Receiver for the Real Property by any court
at the request of Beneficiary or by agreement with Trustor or the entering into
possession of the Real Property or any part thereof by such Receiver be deemed
to make Beneficiary a "mortgagee-in-possession" or otherwise responsible or
liable in any manner with respect to the Real Property or the use, occupancy,
enjoyment or operation of all or any portion thereof.

      Section 10.2 Collection of Rents. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained herein, so long as no Event of Default shall occur and be continuing,
Trustor shall have a license, revocable upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default, to collect all Rents from the Real Property
and to retain, use and enjoy the same and to otherwise exercise all rights with
respect thereto, subject to the terms hereof. Upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default, the license hereinabove granted to Trustor
shall, without the requirement of the giving of notice or taking of any action
by any party, be revoked, and Beneficiary shall have the complete right and
authority to exercise and enforce any and all of its rights and remedies
provided herein or by Applicable Laws.

                                      37.
<PAGE>
            11.2.1 Trustor shall not cause or permit any Hazardous Material to
be brought upon, treated, kept, stored, disposed of, discharged, released,
produced, manufactured, generated, refined or used upon, within or beneath the
Real Property or any portion thereof by Trustor, its agents, employees,
contractors, or invitees, or any other person, except in compliance with all
Environmental Requirements and only in the course of such person's legitimate
business operations at the Real Property (which shall not include any business
for treatment, storage, disposal, discharge, release, production, manufacture,
generation, refinement or use of Hazardous Materials).

            11.2.2 Trustor shall not cause or permit the existence or the
commission by Trustor, its agents, employees, contractors or invitees, or by any
other person of a material violation of any Environmental Requirements upon,
within or beneath the Real Property or any portion thereof.

            11.2.3 Trustor shall not dispose of, discharge or release or cause
or permit the disposal, discharge or release of any Hazardous Materials from the
Real Property into any Public Waters in violation of any Environmental
Requirements.

            11.2.4 Trustor shall not create or suffer to exist with respect to
the Real Property or permit any of its agents to create or suffer to exist any
environmental lien, security interest or other charge or encumbrance of any kind
(other than a Permitted Lien) arising under any Environmental Requirement,
including, without limitation, any lien imposed pursuant to Section 107(f) of
the Superfund Amendment and Reauthorization Act of 1986 (42 U.S.C. Section
9607(1)) or any similar state statute.

            11.2.5 Trustor shall, at its sole cost and expense, promptly take
any and all actions required by any federal, state or local governmental agency
or political subdivision (as hereinafter provided) to mitigate Environmental
Damages, which requirements or necessity arise from the presence upon, about or
beneath the Real Property, of Hazardous Materials or a violation of
Environmental Requirements or the disposal, discharge or release of Hazardous
Materials from the Real Property into the Public Waters. Such actions shall
include, but not be limited to, the investigation of the environmental condition
of the Real Property, the preparation of any feasibility studies, reports or
remedial plans, and the performance of any cleanup, remediation, containment,
operation, maintenance, monitoring or restoration work, whether on or off of the
Real Property (provided that Trustor shall be obligated to take actions off of
the Real Property only if Trustor shall have the legal right to do so and shall
be expressly required to do so by Environmental Requirements). Trustor shall
take all actions as are reasonably necessary to restore the Real Property or the
Public Waters to substantially the condition existing prior to the introduction
of Hazardous Material by Trustor upon, about or beneath the Real Property,
notwithstanding any lesser standard of remediation allowable under Applicable
Laws or governmental policies, but recognizing the economic impracticability of
remediating to a level where Hazardous Materials are no longer detectable.
Trustor shall proceed continuously and diligently with such investigatory and
remedial actions, provided that in all cases such actions


                                      38.
<PAGE>
shall be in accordance with Applicable Laws. Any such actions shall be performed
in a good, safe and workmanlike manner and shall minimize any impact on the
business conducted at the Real Property. Trustor shall pay all Environmental
Damages in connection with such investigatory and remedial activities,
including, but not limited to, all power and utility costs, and any and all
taxes or fees that may be applicable to such activities. Trustor shall promptly
provide to Beneficiary copies of testing results and reports that are generated
in connection with the above activities. Promptly upon completion of such
investigation and remediation, Trustor shall permanently seal or cap all
monitoring wells and test holes to industrial standards in compliance with
Applicable Laws and regulations, remove all associated equipment, and restore
the Real Property to the extent reasonably possible, which shall include,
without limitation, the repair of any surface damage, including paving, caused
by such investigations or remediation hereunder. Upon reasonable notice and at
reasonable times (except in cases of emergency or imminent threat of harm to
human health or the environment), the Indemnitees (as defined in Section 11.2.7
of this Deed of Trust) shall have the right but not the obligation to enter upon
the Real Property to assess any and all aspects of the environmental condition
of the Real Property and its use, including conducting environmental
assessments, audit and sampling (including, but not limited to soil and
groundwater sampling if Indemnitees have a reasonable belief that such soil or
groundwater may be contaminated) not more than once a year, except where
Indemnitees have a reasonable belief that a release of Hazardous Materials or a
violation of Environmental Requirements has occurred or is likely to occur, all
at the expense of Trustor. Trustor and Trustee shall cooperate in choosing
consultants to conduct such work and Trustor shall provide access to the
Indemnitees and their agents, representatives, consultants and employees
(together, the "Indemnitees" for purposes of this Section 11.2.5) in connection
with such investigations. In the event that Trustor fails to fulfill its
obligations under this Deed of Trust relating to environmental matters,
including this Section 11.2.5, following the expiration of thirty (30) days
written notice by Beneficiary of its intent to invoke its rights under this
Section, unless Beneficiary has a reasonable belief that a more immediate
response is required under Environmental Requirements, Beneficiary shall have
the right to undertake any action necessary or prudent under Environmental
Requirements, and shall have the right to pursue any and all legal theories and
remedies provided by law or contract to enforce the covenants in this Section
11.2 and the other provisions of this Article 11. Nothing in this Deed of Trust
shall be deemed to create, or construed as creating, any liability of the
Indemnitees under Environmental Requirements for environmental conditions
relating to the Real Property.

            11.2.6 If Trustor shall become aware of or receive notice or other
communication concerning any actual, alleged, suspected or threatened violation
of any Environmental Requirements or Environmental Claim or liability of Trustor
for Environmental Damages in connection with the Real Property or past or
present activities of any person thereon, including, but not limited to, notice
or other communication concerning any actual or threatened investigation,
inquiry, lawsuit, claim, citation, directive, summons, proceedings, complaint,
notice, order, writ or injunction, relating to same, then Trustor shall deliver
to Beneficiary, within seven (7) days of the receipt of such notice or
communication by Trustor, a written


                                      39.
<PAGE>
description of said violation, liability, or actual or threatened event or
condition, together with copies of any documents evidencing same. Receipt of
such notice shall not be deemed to create any obligation on the part of
Beneficiary to defend or otherwise respond to any such notification.

            11.2.7 Trustor agrees to indemnify, reimburse, defend, exonerate,
pay and hold harmless Beneficiary, its successors and assigns, the Holders, and
their respective directors, officers, shareholders, employees, agents,

and invitees (collectively, the "Indemnitees") from and against any and all
Environmental Claims and Environmental Damages arising in any manner whatsoever
out of Environmental Requirements pertaining to the Real Property and the
activities thereon, whether foreseeable or unforeseeable, and regardless of when
such Environmental Claims arose and Environmental Damages occurred, except to
the extent directly caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of
Indemnitees. The indemnity obligations of Trustor contained in this Section
11.2.7 shall survive the termination, release and/or reconveyance of this Deed
of Trust and the discharge of Trustor's other obligations hereunder.

                                  ARTICLE 12.

                                  MISCELLANEOUS

      Section 12.1 Beneficiary's Expenses, Including Attorneys' Fees. Regardless
of the occurrence of a Default or Event of Default, Trustor agrees to pay to
Beneficiary any and all advances, charges, costs and expenses, including,
without limitation, the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel and any experts
or agents, that Beneficiary may reasonably incur in connection with (i) the
administration of this Deed of Trust, including any amendment thereto or any
workout or restructuring, (ii) the creation, perfection or continuation of the
Lien of this Deed of Trust or protection of its priority or the Trust Estate,
including the discharging of any prior or junior Lien or adverse claim against
the Trust Estate or any part thereof that is not permitted hereby or by the Loan
Agreement, (iii) the custody, preservation or sale of, collection from, or other
realization upon, any of the Trust Estate, (iv) the exercise or enforcement of
any of the rights, powers or remedies of Beneficiary under this Deed of Trust or
under Applicable Laws (including attorneys' fees and expenses incurred by
Beneficiary in connection with the operation, maintenance or foreclosure of the
Lien of this Deed of Trust) or any bankruptcy proceeding or (v) the failure by
Trustor to perform or observe any of the provisions hereof. All such amounts and
all other amounts payable hereunder shall be payable on demand, together with
interest at the Default Rate.

      Section 12.2 Indemnity. Trustor hereby agrees to indemnify and hold
harmless the Indemnitees against (i) any and all transfer taxes, documentary
taxes, assessments or charges made by any Governmental Authority by reason of
the execution and delivery of this Deed of Trust and the other Loan Documents,
and (ii) any and all claims, actions, liabilities, costs and expenses of any
kind or nature whatsoever (including reasonable fees and disbursements of
counsel) that may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against any of them,

                                      40.
<PAGE>
relating to or arising out of this Deed of Trust or any action taken or omitted
by them hereunder, except to the extent that they resulted from the gross
negligence or willful misconduct of any such Indemnitee.

      Section 12.3 Waivers' Modifications in Writing. No amendment of any
provision of this Deed of Trust (including a waiver thereof or consent relating
thereto) shall be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by
Beneficiary and Trustor. Any waiver or consent relating to any provision of this
Deed of Trust shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the
specific purpose for which given. No notice to or demand on Trustor in any case
shall entitle Trustor to any other or further notice or demand in similar
circumstances, except as otherwise provided herein or as required by law.

      Section 12.4 Cumulative Remedies; Failure or Delay. The rights and
remedies provided for under this Deed of Trust are cumulative and are not
exclusive of any rights and remedies that may be available to Beneficiary under
Applicable Laws, the other Loan Documents or otherwise. No failure or delay on
the part of Beneficiary in the exercise of any power, right or remedy under this
Deed of Trust shall impair such power, right or remedy or shall operate as a
waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power,
right or remedy preclude other or further exercise of such or any other power,
right or remedy.

      Section 12.5 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon
and, subject to the next sentence, inure to the benefit of Trustor and
Beneficiary and their respective successors and assigns. Except as expressly
permitted under the Loan Agreement, Trustor shall not assign or transfer any of
its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of
Beneficiary. The benefits of this Deed of Trust shall pass automatically with
any assignment of the Secured Obligations (or any portion thereof), to the
extent of such assignment.

      Section 12.6 Independence of Covenants. All covenants under this Deed of
Trust shall each be given independent effect so that, if a particular action or
condition is not permitted by any such covenant, the fact that it would be
permitted by another covenant or by an exception thereto shall not avoid the
occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default if such action is taken or
condition exists.

      Section 12.7 Change of Law. In the event of the passage, after the date of
this Deed of Trust, of any law changing in any way the laws now in force for the
taxation of mortgages, deeds of trust or debts secured by mortgages or deeds of
trust (other than laws imposing taxes on income), or the manner of the
collection of any such taxes, so as to affect adversely the rights of
Beneficiary under this Deed of Trust, then an Event of Default shall be deemed
to have occurred under the Loan Agreement; provided, however, that no Event of
Default shall be deemed to have occurred (i) if Trustor, within thirty (30) days
after the passage of such law, shall assume the payment of any tax or other
charge so imposed upon Beneficiary for the period remaining until discharge in
full of the Secured Obligations; provided, however, that such assumption is
permitted by Applicable Laws, (ii) if the adverse effect upon Beneficiary of
such tax or other


                                      41.
<PAGE>
charge is not material, or (iii) if and so long as Trustor, at its expense,
shall contest the amount or validity or application of any such tax or other
charge by appropriate legal proceedings promptly initiated and conducted in good
faith and with due diligence; provided that (A) neither the Real Property nor
any substantial part thereof will be in danger of being sold, forfeited,
terminated, canceled, or lost as a result of such contest and (B) except in the
case of a tax or charge junior to the Lien of this Deed of Trust, Trustor shall
have posted such bond or furnished such other security as may be required by law
to release such tax or charge.

      Section 12.8 No Waiver. No waiver by Beneficiary of any Default or breach
by Trustor hereunder shall be implied from any omission by Beneficiary to take
action on account of such Default if such Default persists or is repeated, no
express waiver shall affect any Default other than the Default in the waiver,
and such waiver shall be operative only for the time and to the extent therein
stated. Waivers of any covenant, term or condition contained herein shall not be
construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach of the same covenant, term or
condition. The consent or approval by Beneficiary to or of any act by Trustor
requiring further consent or approval shall not be deemed to waive or render
unnecessary the consent or approval to or of any subsequent similar act.

      Section 12.9 Notices. All notices and other communications under this Deed
of Trust shall be in writing and shall be personally delivered or sent by
prepaid courier, by overnight, registered or certified mail (postage prepaid) or
by prepaid telex, facsimile or telegram, and shall be deemed given when received
by the intended recipient thereof. Unless otherwise specified in a notice given
in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this Section 12.9, notices and
other communications shall be given to the parties hereto at their respective
addresses (or to their respective telex or facsimile numbers) indicated in the
Loan Agreement or, in the case of the Trustee, Schedule 12.9.

      Section 12.10 References to Foreclosure. References hereto to
"foreclosure" and related phrases shall be deemed references to the appropriate
procedure in connection with Trustee's private power of sale, any judicial
foreclosure, proceeding, and any deed given in lieu of any such Trustees sale or
judicial foreclosure.

      Section 12.11 Joinder of Foreclosure. Should Beneficiary hold any other or
additional security for the payment and performance of any Secured Obligation,
its sale or foreclosure, upon any default in such payment or performance, in the
sole discretion of Beneficiary, may be prior to, subsequent to, or joined or
otherwise contemporaneous with any sale or foreclosure hereunder. Except as
otherwise provided in the Loan Agreement, in addition to the rights herein
specifically conferred, Beneficiary, at any time and from time to time, may
exercise any right or remedy now or hereafter given by Applicable Laws to
beneficiaries under deeds of trust generally, or to the holders of any
obligations of the kind hereby secured.

      Section 12.12 Rights and Obligations of Beneficiary and Trustee. At any
time or from time to time, without liability therefor and without notice, and
without releasing or otherwise


                                      42.
<PAGE>
affecting the liability of any Person for payment of any Secured Obligations,
Beneficiary at its sole discretion and only in writing may subordinate the Liens
or either of them, or charge hereof to the extent not prohibited by the Loan
Agreement. Beneficiary and Trustee shall however, promptly upon Trustor's
request from time to time, join in the following actions (including the
execution and delivery of documents) as Trustor determines are reasonably
necessary for the development, use and operation of the Trust Estate: (i) the
making of any map or plat of the Real Property, (ii) the granting, creating,
amending and modifying of any customary easements, covenants, conditions and
restrictions with respect to the Real Property and (iii) the application for and
prosecution of any development building, use and similar permits and land use
and utility approvals and installations regarding the Real Property; provided,
however, that Beneficiary and Trustee shall not be required to join in or take
any such action (a) while an Event of Default exists, (b) to the extent such
action would impair the Liens of this Deed of Trust or the first priority
thereof or (c) to the extent prohibited by the Loan Agreement. Any such request
shall be accompanied by an Officer's Certificate (as defined in the Loan
Agreement). Upon written request of Beneficiary and surrender of this Deed of
Trust to Trustee for cancellation, and upon payment to Trustee of its reasonable
fees and expenses actually incurred, Trustee shall cancel and reconvey this Deed
of Trust.

      Section 12.13 Copies. Trustor will promptly give to Beneficiary copies of
all notices of violations relating to the Real Property that Trustor receives
from any Governmental Authority.

      Section 12.14 Subordination. At the option of Beneficiary, this Deed of
Trust shall become subject and subordinate in whole or in part (but not with
respect to priority of entitlement to any insurance proceeds, damages, awards,
or compensation resulting from damage to the Real Property or condemnation or
exercise of power of eminent domain), to any and all easements, contracts of
sale and/or any and all leases of all or any part of the Real Property upon the
execution by Beneficiary and recording thereon in the official records Real
Property upon the execution by Beneficiary and recording thereof in the official
records of Gilpin County, Colorado of a unilateral declaration to that effect.
Beneficiary may require the issuance of such title insurance endorsements to the
Title Policy in connection with any such subordination as Beneficiary, in its
judgment, shall determine are appropriate, and Trustor shall be obligated to pay
any cost or expense incurred in connection with the issuance thereof.

      Section 12.15 Personal Property Security Instruments. Trustor covenants
and agrees that if Beneficiary at any time holds additional security for any
Secured Obligations secured hereby, it may enforce the terms thereof or
otherwise realize upon the same, at its option, either before or concurrently
herewith or after a sale is made hereunder, and may apply the proceeds upon the
Secured Obligations without affecting the status or of waiving any right to
exhaust all or any other security, including the security hereunder, and without
waiving any breach or Default or any right or power whether exercised hereunder
or contained herein or in any such other security.

      Section 12.16 Suits to Protect Real Property. Trustor covenants and agrees
to appear in and defend any action or proceeding the consequence of which, if
successful, would be that the


                                      43.
<PAGE>
Liens, or either of them, of this Deed of Trust would not satisfy the
requirements as to extent, perfection or priority set forth in the Loan
Agreement; and to pay all reasonable costs and expenses actually incurred by
Trustee and Beneficiary, including cost of evidence of title and attorneys' fees
in a reasonable sum, in any such action or proceeding in which Beneficiary
and/or Trustee may appear or be made a party.

      Section 12.17 Trustor Waiver of Rights. Trustor waives the benefit of all
laws now existing or that hereafter may be enacted providing for (i) any
appraisement before sale of any portion of the Trust Estate, and (ii) the
benefit of all laws that may be hereafter enacted in any way extending the time
for the enforcement of the Secured Obligations or creating or extending a period
of redemption from any sale made in collecting said debt. To the full extent
Trustor may do so, Trustor agrees that Trustor will not at any time insist upon,
plead, claim or take the benefit or advantage of any law now or hereafter in
force providing for any appraisement, valuation stay, extension or redemption,
and Trustor, for Trustor, Trustor's heirs, devisees, representatives, successors
and assigns, and for any and all Persons ever claiming any interest in the Trust
Estate, to the extent permitted by Applicable Laws, hereby waives and releases
all rights of redemption, valuation, appraisement, stay of execution, and
marshaling in the event of foreclosure of the liens hereby created. If any law
referred to in this Section 12.17 and now in force, of which Trustor, Trustor's
heirs, devisees, representatives, successors and assigns or other Person might
take advantage despite this Section 12.17, shall hereafter be repealed or cease
to be in force, such law shall not thereafter be deemed to preclude the
application of this Section 12.17. To the extent permitted by Applicable Laws,
Trustor expressly waives and relinquishes any and all rights and remedies which
Trustor may have or be able to assert by reason of the laws of the State of
Colorado pertaining to the rights and remedies of sureties.

      Section 12.18 Charges for Statements. Trustor agrees to pay Beneficiary's
customary charge, to the maximum amount permitted by Applicable Laws, for any
statement regarding the Secured Obligations requested by Trustor or in its
behalf.

      Section 12.19 Complete Agreement. This Deed of Trust together with the
exhibits and schedules hereto, and the other Loan Documents, is intended by the
parties as a final expression of their agreement regarding the subject matter
hereof and is intended as a complete and exclusive statement of the terms and
conditions of such agreement.

      Section 12.20 Payments Set Aside. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
herein contained, this Deed of Trust, the Secured Obligations and the Lien and
Security Interest of this Deed of Trust shall continue to be effective or be
reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment, or any part thereof,
of any or all of the Secured Obligations is rescinded, invalidated, declared to
be fraudulent or preferential or otherwise required to be restored or returned
by Beneficiary in connection with any bankruptcy, reorganization or similar
proceeding involving Trustor, any other party liable with respect to the Secured
Obligations of otherwise, if the proceeds of the Trust Estate are required to be
returned by Beneficiary under any such circumstances, or if Beneficiary
reasonably elects to return any such payment or proceeds or any


                                      44.
<PAGE>
part thereof in its discretion, all as though such payment had not been made or
such proceeds not been received. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, if prior to any such rescission, invalidation, declaration,
restoration or return, this Deed of Trust shall have been terminated, released
and/or reconveyed and the Lien and Security Interest or any of the Trust Estate
shall have been released or terminated in connection with such termination,
release and/or reconveyance, this Deed of Trust and the Lien and Security
Interest and such portion of the Trust Estate shall be reinstated in full force
and effect, and such prior termination, release and/or reconveyance shall not
diminish, discharge or otherwise affect the obligations of Trustor in respect of
the amount of the affected payment or application of proceeds, the Lien, the
Security Interest or such portion of the Trust Estate.

      Section 12.21 Substitution. Beneficiary may at any time, without giving
notice to Trustor or the original or successor Trustee, and without regard to
the willingness or inability of any original or successor Trustee to execute
this trust, appoint another Person or succession of Persons to act as Trustee,
and such appointee in the execution of this trust shall have all the powers
vested in and obligations imposed upon Trustee. Should Beneficiary be a
corporation or unincorporated association, then any officer thereof may make
such appointment

or proceedings arising in connection with this Deed of Trust shall be tried and
litigated in state or Federal courts located in the County of Gilpin, State of
Colorado, unless such actions or proceedings are required to be brought in
another court to obtain subject matter jurisdiction over the matter in
controversy. TRUSTOR WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE THE DOCTRINE OF FORUM NON
CONVENIENS, TO ASSERT THAT IT IS NOT SUBJECT TO THE JURISDICTION OF SUCH COURTS
OR TO OBJECT TO VENUE TO THE EXTENT ANY PROCEEDING IS BROUGHT IN ACCORDANCE WITH
THIS SECTION 12.22.1.

            12.22.2 Nothing contained in this Section shall preclude Beneficiary
from bringing any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Deed
of Trust in any court not referred to in Section 12.22.1. SERVICE OF PROCESS,

Collateral referred to in Article 9 hereof, other than Fixtures, shall be tried
and litigated in any California state court sitting in the County of Los
Angeles, State of California or any federal court sitting in the County of Los
Angeles, State of California. Trustor hereby irrevocably submits to the
jurisdiction of such courts to the extent any proceeding is brought in
accordance with this Section 12.22.3. Trustor irrevocably waives, to the fullest
extent it may effectively do so under


                                      45.
<PAGE>
Applicable Law, trial by jury and any objection that it may now or hereafter
have to the laying of the venue of any such suit, action or proceeding brought
in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. Trustor irrevocably
consents, to the fullest extent that it may effectively do so under Applicable
Law, to the service of process of any of the aforementioned courts in any such
action or proceeding by the mailing of copies thereof by registered or certified
mail, postage prepaid, to Trustor at its said address, such service to become
effective thirty (30) days after such mailing. Nothing shall affect the right of
Beneficiary to serve process in any other manner permitted by law or to commence
legal proceedings or otherwise proceed against Trustor in any other
jurisdiction.

is given to Beneficiary, which right is affected by Applicable Gaming Laws or

Liquor Laws, the enforcement of any such right shall be subject to Applicable
Gaming Laws and Liquor Laws and approval, if so required, of the applicable
Gaming Authorities or authorities enforcing the Liquor Laws.

      Section 12.24 Guarantor Waivers. If and to the extent that Trustor (for
the purposes of this Section 12.24, "Guarantor") would be deemed or construed to
be a guarantor or surety under Applicable Laws with respect to its obligations
hereunder, Guarantor hereby agrees as follows:

            12.24.1 Guarantor expressly agrees that until each and every term,
covenant and condition of this Deed of Trust is fully performed, Guarantor shall
not be released by any act or event which, except for this provision of this
Deed of Trust might be deemed a legal or equitable discharge or exoneration of a
surety, or because of any waiver, extension, modification, forbearance or delay
or other act or omission of Beneficiary or its failure to proceed promptly or
otherwise as against Borrowers or any other Guarantor, as the case may be
(individually and collectively, in its or their capacity as the entity or
entities the obligations of which are guaranteed hereunder by Guarantor, the
"Principal") or Guarantor, or because of any action taken or omitted or
circumstance which might vary the risk or affect the rights or remedies of
Guarantor as against the Principal, or because of any further dealings between
the Principal and Beneficiary, whether relating to this Deed of Trust or
otherwise. Guarantor hereby expressly waives and surrenders any defense to
Guarantor's liability under this Deed of Trust based upon any of the foregoing
acts, omissions, things, agreements, waivers or any of them. It is the purpose
and intent of this Deed of Trust that the obligations of Guarantor under it
shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances, subject to

action or proceeding brought against Guarantor by Beneficiary, to the fullest
extent permitted by Applicable Laws.

                  12.24.2.2 any right it may have to require Beneficiary to
proceed against the Principal or pursue any other remedy in Beneficiary's power
to pursue, it being acknowledged and agreed that the obligations of Guarantor
hereunder are independent of the obligations of the Principal hereunder, and
Beneficiary shall not be required to make any demand upon, exercise any right to
declare a default by, or proceed against, the Principal prior to proceeding
against Guarantor to the full extent of Guarantor's obligations hereunder,

                  12.24.2.3 any defense based on any legal disability of the
Principal and any discharge, release or limitation of the liability of the
Principal to Beneficiary, whether consensual or arising by operation of law or
any bankruptcy, reorganization, receivership, insolvency, or debtor-relief
proceeding, or from any other cause, or any claim that Guarantor's obligations
exceed or are more burdensome than those of the Principal;

                  12.24.2.4 all presentments, demands for performance, notices
of nonperformance, protests, notices of protest, notices of dishonor, notices of

                  12.24.2.5 any defense based on or "arising out of any defense
that the Principal may have to the payment or performance of any obligation set
forth in this Deed of Trust and

                  12.24.2.6 until all obligations under this Deed of Trust have
been paid and performed in full, all rights of subrogation and all rights to
enforce any remedy that Guarantor may have against the Principal, all regardless
of whether Guarantor may have made any payments to Beneficiary.

            12.24.3 Guarantor assumes full responsibility for keeping informed
of the financial condition and business operations of the Principal and all
other circumstances affecting the Principal's ability to pay for and perform its
obligations, and agrees that Beneficiary shall have no duty to disclose to
Guarantor any information which Beneficiary may receive about the Principal's
financial condition, business operations, or any other circumstances bearing on
its ability to perform.

            12.24.4 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary provided elsewhere
herein, in no event shall Guarantor have any liability under this Deed of Trust
beyond its interest in the Real Property, and in no event shall Guarantor's
obligations hereunder be enforced against any property of Guarantor other than
its interest in the Real Property.

      Section 12.25 Release. In the event that Trustor is released and
discharged from all of the Secured Obligations pursuant to the Loan documents,
