This Security Instrument secures to Lender: (a) the repayment of the Loan, and
all renewals, extensions and modifications of the Note; and (b) the performance
of Borrower's covenants and agreements under this Security Instrument and the
Note. For this purpose, Borrower irrevocably grants and conveys to Trustee and
Trustee's successors and assigns, in trust, with power of sale, the following
described property:

         See Exhibit A attached hereto and incorporated herein.

                                       3

<PAGE>   4

         TO HAVE AND TO HOLD this property unto Trustee and Trustee's successors
and assigns, forever, together with all the improvements now or hereafter
erected on the property, and all easements, appurtenances, and fixtures now or
hereafter a part of the property. All replacements and additions shall also be
covered by this Security Instrument. All of the foregoing is referred to in this
Security Instrument as the "Property. "

         BORROWER COVENANTS that Borrower is lawfully seized of the estate
hereby conveyed and has the right to grant and convey the Property and that the
Property is unencumbered, except for encumbrances revealed by the title
commitment issued by Chicago Title Insurance Company contemporaneously herewith
("Commitment"). Borrower warrants and will defend generally the title to the
Property against all claims and demands, subject to any encumbrances revealed by
the Commitment.

         THIS SECURITY INSTRUMENT combines uniform covenants for national use
and non-uniform covenants with limited variations by jurisdiction to constitute
a uniform security instrument covering real property.

         UNIFORM COVENANTS.  Borrower and Lender covenant and agree as follows:
         1. PAYMENT OF PRINCIPAL, INTEREST, ESCROW ITEMS, PREPAYMENT CHARGES,
AND LATE CHARGES. Borrower shall pay when due the principal of, and interest on,
the debt evidenced by the Note and any prepayment charges and late charges due
under the Note. Payments due under the Note and this Security Instrument shall
be made in U. S. currency. However, if any check or other instrument received by
Lender as payment under the Note or this Security Instrument is returned to
Lender unpaid, Lender may require that any or all subsequent payments due under
the Note and this Security Instrument be made in one or more of the following
forms, as selected by Lender: (a) cash, (b) money order, (c) certified check,
bank check, treasurer's check or cashier's check, provided any such check is
drawn upon an institution whose deposits are insured by a federal agency,
instrumentality, or entity or (d) Electronic Funds Transfer. Payments are deemed
received by Lender when received at the location designated in the Note or at
such other location as may be designated by Lender in accordance with the notice
provisions in Section 15. Lender may return any payment(s) or partial payment(s)
if the payment(s) or partial payments are insufficient to bring the Loan
current. If Borrower has breached any covenant or agreement in this Security
Instrument and Lender has accelerated the obligations of Borrower hereunder
pursuant to Section 22 then Lender may accept any payment(s) or partial
payment(s) insufficient to bring the Loan current, without waiver of any rights
hereunder or prejudice to its rights to refuse such payment(s) or partial
payments in the future, but Lender is not obligated to apply such payments at
the time such payments are accepted. If each Periodic Payment is applied as of
its scheduled due date, then Lender need not pay interest on unapplied funds.
Lender may hold such unapplied funds until Borrower makes payment(s) to bring
the Loan current. If Borrower does not do so within a reasonable period of time,
Lender shall either apply such funds or return them to Borrower. If not applied
earlier, such funds will be applied to the obligations secured hereby
immediately prior to foreclosure. No offset or claim which Borrower might have
now or in the future against Lender shall relieve Borrower from making payments
due under the Note

                                       4

<PAGE>   5

and this Security Instrument or performing the covenants and agreements secured
by this Security Instrument.
         2. APPLICATION OF PAYMENTS OR PROCEEDS. Except as otherwise described
in this Section 2, all payments accepted and applied by Lender shall be applied
in the following order of priority: (1) expenses incurred by Lender for which
Borrower is responsible hereunder (2) interest due under the Note; (3) principal
due under the Note in the following order of priority: (i) Term Note; (ii)
Revolver Note; (iii) Kaukauna Note; (iv) New London Note; (v) Shawano Note; (vi)
Clintonville Note; (vii) Letter of Credit Notes; (viii) Other Notes; (4) amounts
due under Section 3. Such payments shall be applied to each Periodic Payment in
the order in which it became due. Any remaining amounts shall be applied first
to late charges, second to any other amounts due under this Security Instrument,
and then to reduce the principal balance of the Note.
         If Lender receives a payment from Borrower for a delinquent Periodic
Payment which includes a sufficient amount to pay any late charge due, the
payment may be applied to the delinquent payment and the late charge. If more
than one Periodic Payment is outstanding, Lender may apply any payment received
from Borrower to the repayment of the Periodic Payments if, and to the extent
that, each payment can be paid in full. To the extent that any excess exists
after the payment is applied to the full payment of one or more Periodic
Payments, such excess may be applied to any late charges due. Voluntary
prepayments shall be applied first to any prepayment charges and then as
described in the Note.
         Any application of payments, insurance proceeds, or Miscellaneous
Proceeds to principal due under the Note shall not extend or postpone the due
date, or change the amount, of the Periodic Payments.
         3. FUNDS FOR ESCROW ITEMS. Intentionally Omitted.
         4. CHARGES; LIENS. Borrower shall pay all taxes, assessments, charges,
fines, and impositions attributable to the Property which can attain priority
over this Security Instrument, leasehold payments or ground rents on the
Property, if any, and Community Association Dues, Fees, and Assessments, if any.
         Borrower shall promptly discharge any lien which has priority over this
Security Instrument unless Borrower: (a) agrees in writing to the payment of the
obligation secured by the lien in a manner acceptable to Lender, but only so
long as Borrower is performing such agreement; (b) contests the lien in good
faith by, or defends against enforcement of the lien in, legal proceedings which
in Lender's opinion operate to prevent the enforcement of the lien while those
proceedings are pending, but only until such proceedings are concluded; or (c)
secures from the holder of the lien an agreement satisfactory to Lender
subordinating the lien to this Security Instrument. If Lender determines that
any part of the Property is subject to a lien which can attain priority over
this Security Instrument, Lender may give Borrower a notice identifying the
lien. Within 10 days of the date on which that notice is given, Borrower shall
satisfy the lien or take one or more of the actions set forth above in this
Section 4.
         Lender may require Borrower to pay a one-time charge for a real estate
tax verification and/or reporting service used by Lender in connection with this
Loan.
         5. PROPERTY INSURANCE. Borrower shall keep the improvements now
existing or hereafter erected on the Property insured against loss by fire,
hazards included within the term "extended coverage," and any other hazards
including, but not limited to, earthquakes and floods, for which Lender requires
insurance. This insurance shall be maintained in the

                                       5

<PAGE>   6

amounts (including deductible levels) and for the periods that Lender requires.
What Lender requires pursuant to the preceding sentences can change during the
term of the Loan. The insurance carrier providing the insurance shall be chosen
by Borrower subject to Lender's right to disapprove Borrower's choice, which
right shall not be exercised unreasonably. Lender may require Borrower to pay,
in connection with this Loan, either: (1) a one-time charge for flood zone
determination, certification and tracking services or (2) a one-time charge for
flood zone determination and certification services and subsequent charges each
time remappings or similar changes occur which reasonably might affect such
determination or certification. Borrower shall also be responsible for the
payment of any fees imposed by the Federal Emergency Management Agency in
connection with the review of any flood zone determination resulting from an
objection by Borrower.
         If Borrower fails to maintain any of the coverages described above,
Lender may obtain insurance coverage, at Lender's option and Borrower's expense.
Lender is under no obligation to purchase any particular type or amount of
coverage. Therefore, such coverage shall cover Lender, but might or might not
protect Borrower, Borrower's equity in the Property, or the contents of the
Property, against any risk, hazard or liability and might provide greater or
lesser coverage than was previously in effect. Borrower acknowledges that the
cost of the insurance coverage so obtained might significantly exceed the cost
of insurance that Borrower could have obtained. Any amounts disbursed by Lender
under this Section 5 shall become additional debt of Borrower secured by this
Security Instrument. These amounts shall bear interest at the Note rate from the
date of disbursement and shall be payable, with such interest, upon notice from
Lender to Borrower requesting payment.
         All insurance policies required by Lender and renewals of such policies
shall be subject to Lender's right to disapprove such policies, shall include a
standard mortgage clause, and shall name Lender as mortgagee and/or as an
additional loss payee. Lender shall have the right to hold the policies and
renewal certificates. If Lender requires, Borrower shall promptly give to Lender
all receipts of paid premiums and renewal notices. If Borrower obtains any form
of insurance coverage, not otherwise required by Lender, for damage to, or
destruction of, the Property, such policy shall include a standard mortgage
clause and shall name Lender as mortgagee and/or as an additional loss payee.
         In the event of loss, Borrower shall give prompt notice to the
insurance carrier and Lender. Lender may make proof of loss if not made promptly
by Borrower. Unless Lender and Borrower otherwise agree in writing, any
insurance proceeds, whether or not the underlying insurance was required by
Lender, shall be applied to restoration or repair of the Property, if the
restoration or repair is economically feasible and Lender's security is not
lessened. During such repair and restoration period, Lender shall have the right
to hold such insurance proceeds until Lender has had an opportunity to inspect
such Property to ensure the work has been completed to Lender's satisfaction,
provided that such inspection shall be undertaken promptly. Lender may disburse
proceeds for the repairs and restoration in a single payment or in a series of
progress payments as the work is completed. Unless an agreement is made in
writing or Applicable Law requires interest to be paid on such insurance
proceeds, Lender shall not be required to pay Borrower any interest or earnings
on such proceeds. Fees for public adjusters, or other third parties, retained by
Borrower shall not be paid out of the insurance proceeds and shall be the sole
obligation of Borrower. If the restoration or repair is not economically
feasible or Lender's security would be lessened, the insurance proceeds shall

                                       6

<PAGE>   7

be applied to the sums secured by this Security Instrument, whether or not then
due, with the excess, if any, paid to Borrower. Such insurance proceeds shall be
applied in the order provided for in Section 2.
         If Borrower abandons the Property, Lender may file, negotiate and
settle any available insurance claim and related matters. If Borrower does not
respond within 30 days to a notice from Lender that the insurance carrier has
offered to settle a claim, then Lender may negotiate and settle the claim. The
30-day period will begin when the notice is given. In either event, or if Lender
acquires the Property under Section 22 or otherwise, Borrower hereby assigns to
Lender (1) Borrower's rights to any insurance proceeds in an amount not to
exceed the amounts unpaid under the Note or this Security Instrument, and (2)
any other of Borrower's rights (other than the right to any refund of unearned
premiums paid by Borrower) under all insurance policies covering the Property,
insofar as such rights are applicable to the coverage of the Property. Lender
may use the insurance proceeds either to repair or restore the Property or to
pay amounts unpaid under the Note or this Security Instrument, whether or not
then due.
         6. OCCUPANCY. Intentionally Omitted.
         7. PRESERVATION, MAINTENANCE AND PROTECTION OF THE PROPERTY;
INSPECTIONS. Borrower shall not destroy, damage or impair the Property, allow
the Property to deteriorate or commit waste on the Property. Borrower shall
maintain the Property in order to prevent the Property from deteriorating or
decreasing in value due to its condition. Unless it is determined pursuant to
Section 5 that repair or restoration is not economically feasible, Borrower
shall promptly repair the Property if damaged to avoid further deterioration or
damage. If insurance or condemnation proceeds are paid in connection with damage
to, or the taking of, the Property, Borrower shall be responsible for repairing
or restoring the Property only if Lender has released proceeds for such
purposes. Lender may disburse proceeds for the repairs and restoration in a
single payment or in a series of progress payments as the work is completed. If
the insurance or condemnation proceeds are not sufficient to repair or restore
the Property, Borrower is not relieved of Borrower's obligation for the
completion of such repair or restoration.
         Lender or its agent may make reasonable entries upon and inspections of
the Property. If it has reasonable cause, Lender may inspect the interior of the
improvements on the Property. Lender shall give Borrower notice at the time of
or prior to such an interior inspection specifying such reasonable cause.
         8. BORROWER'S LOAN APPLICATION. Intentionally Omitted.
         9. PROTECTION OF LENDER'S INTEREST IN THE PROPERTY AND RIGHTS UNDER
THIS SECURITY INSTRUMENT. If (1) Borrower fails to perform the covenants and
agreements contained in this Security Instrument, (2) there is a legal
proceeding that might significantly affect Lender's interest in the Property
and/or rights under this Security Instrument (such as a proceeding in
bankruptcy, probate, for condemnation or forfeiture, for enforcement of a lien
which may attain priority over this Security Instrument or to enforce laws or
regulations), or (3) Borrower has abandoned the Property, then Lender may do and
pay for whatever is reasonable or appropriate to protect Lender's interest in
the Property and rights under this Security Instrument, including protecting
and/or assessing the value of the Property, and securing and/or repairing the
Property. Lender's actions can include, but are not limited to, (1) paying any
sums secured by a lien which has priority over this Security Instrument, (2)
appearing in

                                       7

<PAGE>   8

court, and (3) paying reasonable attorneys' fees to protect its interest in the
Property and/or rights under this Security Instrument, including its secured
position in a bankruptcy proceeding. Securing the Property includes, but is not
limited to, entering the Property to make repairs, change locks, replace or
board up doors and windows, drain water from pipes, eliminate building or other
code violations or dangerous conditions, and have utilities turned on or off.
Although Lender may take action under this Section 9, Lender does not have to do
so and is not under any duty or obligation to do so. It is agreed that Lender
incurs no liability for not taking any or all actions authorized under this
Section 9.
         Any amounts disbursed by Lender under this Section 9 shall become
additional debt of Borrower secured by this Security Instrument. These amounts
shall bear interest at the Note rate from the date of disbursement and shall be
payable, with such interest, upon notice from Lender to Borrower requesting
payment.
         If this Security Instrument is on a leasehold, Borrower shall comply
with all the provisions of the lease. If Borrower acquires fee title to the
Property, the leasehold and the fee title shall not merge unless Lender agrees
to the merger in writing.
         10. MORTGAGE INSURANCE. Intentionally Omitted.
         11. ASSIGNMENT OF MISCELLANEOUS PROCEEDS; FORFEITURE. All Miscellaneous
Proceeds are hereby assigned to and shall be paid to Lender.
         If the Property is damaged, such Miscellaneous Proceeds shall be
applied to restoration or repair of the Property, if the restoration or repair
is economically feasible and Lender's security is not lessened. During such
repair and restoration period, Lender shall have the right to hold such
Miscellaneous Proceeds until Lender has had an opportunity to inspect such
Property to ensure the work has been completed to Lender's satisfaction,
provided that such inspection shall be undertaken promptly. Lender may pay for
the repairs and restoration in a single disbursement or in a series of progress
payments as the work is completed. Unless an agreement is made in writing or
Applicable Law requires interest to be paid on such Miscellaneous Proceeds,
Lender shall not be required to pay Borrower any interest or earnings on such
Miscellaneous Proceeds.  If the restoration or repair is not economically
feasible or Lender's security would be lessened, the Miscellaneous Proceeds
shall be applied to the sums secured by this Security Instrument, whether or not
then due, with the excess, if any, paid to Borrower. Such Miscellaneous Proceeds
shall be applied in the order provided for in Section 2.
         In the event of a total taking, destruction, or loss in value of the
Property, the Miscellaneous Proceeds shall be applied to the sums secured by
this Security Instrument, whether or not then due, with the excess, if any, paid
to Borrower.
         In the event of a partial taking, destruction, or loss in value of the
Property unless Borrower and Lender otherwise agree in writing, the
Miscellaneous Proceeds shall be applied to the sums secured by this Security
Instrument whether or not the sums are then due.
         If the Property is abandoned by Borrower, or if, after notice by Lender
to Borrower that the Opposing Party (as defined in the next sentence) offers to
make an award to settle a claim for damages, Borrower fails to respond to Lender
within 30 days after the date the notice is given, Lender is authorized to
collect and apply the Miscellaneous Proceeds either to restoration or repair of
the Property or to the sums secured by this Security Instrument, whether or not
then due. "Opposing Party" means the third party that owes Borrower

                                       8

<PAGE>   9

Miscellaneous Proceeds or the party against whom Borrower has a right of action
in regard to Miscellaneous Proceeds.
         Borrower shall be in default if any action or proceeding, whether civil
or criminal, is begun that, in Lender's judgment, could result in forfeiture of
the Property or other material impairment of Lender's interest in the Property
or rights under this Security Instrument. Borrower can cure such a default and,
if acceleration has occurred, reinstate as provided in Section 19, by causing
the action or proceeding to be dismissed with a ruling that, in Lender's
judgment, precludes forfeiture of the Property or other material impairment of
Lender's interest in the Property or rights under this Security Instrument. The
proceeds of any award or claim for damages that are attributable to the
impairment of Lender's interest in the Property are hereby assigned and shall be
paid to Lender.
         All Miscellaneous Proceeds that are not applied to restoration or
repair of the Property shall be applied in the order provided for in Section 2.
         12. BORROWER NOT RELEASED; FORBEARANCE BY LENDER NOT A WAIVER.
Extension of the time for payment or modification of amortization of the sums
secured by this Security Instrument granted by Lender to Borrower or any
Successor in Interest of Borrower shall not operate to release the liability of
Borrower or any Successors in Interest of Borrower. Lender shall not be required
to commence proceedings against any Successor in Interest of Borrower or to
refuse to extend time for payment or otherwise modify amortization of the sums
secured by this Security Instrument by reason of any demand made by the original
Borrower or any Successors in Interest of Borrower. Any forbearance by Lender in
exercising any right or remedy including, without limitation, Lender's
acceptance of payments from third persons, entities or Successors in Interest of
Borrower or in amounts less than the amount then due, shall not be a waiver of
or preclude the exercise of any right or remedy.
         13. JOINT AND SEVERAL LIABILITY; CO-SIGNERS; SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS
BOUND. Borrower covenants and agrees that Borrower's obligations and liability
shall be joint and several. However, any Borrower who co-signs this Security
Instrument but does not execute the Note (a "co-signer"): (a) is co-signing this
Security Instrument only to mortgage, grant and convey the co-signer's interest
in the Property under the terms of this Security Instrument; (b) is not
personally obligated to pay the sums secured by this Security Instrument; and
(c) agrees that Lender and any other Borrower can agree to extend, modify,
forbear or make any accommodations with regard to the terms of this Security
Instrument or the Note without the co-signer's consent.
         Subject to the provisions of Section 18, any Successor in Interest of
Borrower who assumes Borrower's obligations under this Security Instrument in
writing, and is approved by Lender, shall obtain all of Borrower's rights and
benefits under this Security Instrument. Borrower shall not be released from
Borrower's obligations and liability under this Security Instrument unless
Lender agrees to such release in writing. The covenants and agreements of this
Security Instrument shall bind (except as provided in Section 20) and benefit
the successors and assigns of Lender.
         14. LOAN CHARGES. Lender may charge Borrower fees for services
performed in connection with Borrower's default, for the purpose of protecting
Lender's interest in the Property and rights under this Security Instrument,
including, but not limited to, attorneys fees, property inspection and valuation
fees. In regard to any other fees, the absence of express authority in this
Security Instrument to charge a specific fee to Borrower shall not be

                                       9

<PAGE>   10

construed as a prohibition on the charging of such fee. Lender may not charge
fees that are expressly prohibited by this Security Instrument or by Applicable
Law.
         If the Loan is subject to a law which sets maximum loan charges, and
that law is finally interpreted so that the interest or other loan charges
collected or to be collected in connection with the Loan exceed the permitted
limits, then: (a) any such loan charge shall be reduced by the amount necessary
to reduce the charge to the permitted limit; and (b) any sums already collected
from Borrower which exceeded permitted limits will be refunded to Borrower. .
Lender may choose to make this refund by reducing the principal owed under the
Note or by making a direct payment to Borrower. If a refund reduces principal,
the reduction will be treated as a partial prepayment without any prepayment
charge (whether or not a prepayment charge is provided for under the Note).
Borrower's acceptance of any such refund made by direct payment to Borrower will
constitute a waiver of any right of action Borrower might have arising out of
such overcharge.

Lender one day after deposit with a national overnight courier service or
when actually delivered to Lender's notice address if sent by other means. If
any notice required by this Security Instrument is also required under
Applicable Law, the Applicable Law requirement will satisfy the corresponding
requirement under this Security Instrument.
         16. GOVERNING LAW; SEVERABILITY; RULES OF CONSTRUCTION. This Security
Instrument shall be governed by federal law and the law of the jurisdiction in
which the Property is located. All rights and obligations contained in this
Security Instrument are subject to any requirements and limitations of
Applicable Law. Applicable Law might explicitly or implicitly allow the parties
to agree by contract or it might be silent, but such silence shall not be
construed as a prohibition against agreement by contract. In the event that any
provision or clause of this Security Instrument or the Note conflicts with
Applicable Law, such conflict shall not affect other provisions of this Security
Instrument or the Note which can be given effect without the conflicting
provision.
         As used in this Security Instrument: (1) words of the masculine gender
shall mean and include corresponding neuter words or words of the feminine
gender, (2) words in the singular shall mean and include the plural and vice
versa, and (3) the word "may" gives sole discretion without any obligation to
take any action.
         17. BORROWER'S COPY. Borrower shall be given one copy of the Note and
of this Security Instrument.
         18. TRANSFER OF THE PROPERTY OR A BENEFICIAL INTEREST IN BORROWER. As
used in this Section 18, "Interest in the Property" means any legal or
beneficial interest in the Property, including, but not limited to, those
beneficial interests transferred in a bond for deed, contract for deed,
installment sales contract or escrow agreement, the intent of which is the
transfer of title by Borrower at a future date to a purchaser.
         If all or any part of the Property or any Interest in the Property is
sold or transferred without Lender's prior written consent, Lender may require
immediate payment in full of all sums secured by this Security Instrument.
However, this option shall not be exercised by Lender if such exercise is
prohibited by federal law.
         If Lender exercises this option, Lender shall give Borrower notice of
acceleration. The notice shall provide a period of not less than 30 days from
the date the notice is given in accordance with Section 15 within which Borrower
must pay all sums secured by this Security Instrument. If Borrower fails to pay
these sums prior to the expiration of this period, Lender may invoke any
remedies permitted by this Security Instrument without further notice or demand
on Borrower.
         19. BORROWER'S RIGHT TO REINSTATE AFTER ACCELERATION. If Borrower meets
certain conditions, Borrower shall have the right to have enforcement of this
Security Instrument discontinued at any time prior to the earliest of: (i) five
days before sale of the Property pursuant to any power of sale contained in this
Security Instrument; (ii) such other period as Applicable Law might specify for
the termination of Borrower's right to reinstate; or (iii) entry of a judgment
enforcing this Security Instrument. Those conditions are that Borrower: (a) pays
Lender all sums which then would be due under this Security Instrument and the
Note as if no acceleration had occurred; (b) cures any default of any other
covenants or agreements; (c) pays all expenses incurred in enforcing this
Security Instrument, including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys' fees,
property inspection and valuation fees, and other fees incurred for the purpose
of protecting Lender's interest in the Property and rights under this Security

                                       11

<PAGE>   12

Instrument; and (d) takes such action as Lender may reasonably require to assure
that Lender's interest in the Property and rights under this Security
Instrument, and Borrower's obligation to pay the sums secured by this Security
Instrument, shall continue unchanged. Lender may require that Borrower pay such
reinstatement sums and expenses in one or more of the following forms, as
selected by Lender: (a) cash, (b) money order, (c) certified check, bank check,
treasurer's check or cashier's check, provided any such check is drawn upon an
institution whose deposits are insured by a federal agency, instrumentality or
entity or (d) Electronic Funds Transfer. Upon reinstatement by Borrower, this
Security Instrument and obligations secured hereby shall remain fully effective
as if no acceleration had occurred. However, this right to reinstate shall not
apply in the case of acceleration under Section 18.
         20. SALE OF NOTE; CHANGE OF LOAN SERVICER; NOTICE OF GRIEVANCE.
Intentionally Omitted.
         Neither Borrower nor Lender may commence, join, or be joined to any
judicial action (as either an individual litigant or the member of a class) that
arises from the other party's actions pursuant to this Security Instrument or
that alleges that the other party has breached any provision of, or any duty
owed by reason of, this Security Instrument, until such Borrower or Lender has
notified the other party (with such notice given in compliance with the
requirements of Section 15) of such alleged breach and afforded the other party
hereto a reasonable period after the giving of such notice to take corrective
action. If Applicable Law provides a time period which must elapse before
certain action can be taken, that time period will be deemed to be reasonable
for purposes of this paragraph. The notice of acceleration and opportunity to
cure given to Borrower pursuant to Section 22 and the notice of acceleration
given to Borrower pursuant to Section 18 shall be deemed to satisfy the notice
and opportunity to take corrective action provisions of this Section 20.
         21. HAZARDOUS SUBSTANCES. As used in this Section 21: (1) "Hazardous
Substances" are those substances defined as toxic or hazardous substances,
pollutants, or wastes by Environmental Law and the following substances:
gasoline, kerosene, other flammable or toxic petroleum products, toxic
pesticides and herbicides, volatile solvents, materials containing asbestos or
formaldehyde, and radioactive materials; (2) "Environmental Law" means federal
laws and laws of the jurisdiction where the Property is located that relate to
health, safety or environmental protection; (3) "Environmental Cleanup" includes
any response action, remedial action, or removal action, as defined in
Environmental Law and (4) an "Environmental Condition" means a condition that
can cause, contribute to, or otherwise trigger an Environmental Cleanup.
         Borrower shall not cause or permit the presence, use, disposal,
storage, or release of any Hazardous Substances, or threaten to release any
Hazardous Substances, on or in the Property. Borrower shall not do, nor allow
anyone else to do, anything affecting the Property (1) that is in violation of
any Environmental Law, (2) which creates an Environmental Condition or (3)
which, due to the presence, use, or release of a Hazardous Substance, creates a
condition that adversely affects the value of the Property. The preceding two
sentences shall not apply to the presence, use, or storage on the Property of
small quantities of Hazardous Substances that are generally recognized to be
appropriate to normal residential uses and to maintenance of the Property
(including, but not limited to, hazardous substances in consumer products).

                                       12

<PAGE>   13

         Borrower shall promptly give Lender written notice of (1) any
investigation, claim, demand, lawsuit or other action by any governmental or
regulatory agency or private party involving the Property and any Hazardous
Substance or Environmental Law of which Borrower has actual knowledge; (2) any
Environmental Condition, including but not limited to, any spilling, leaking,
discharge, release or threat of release of any Hazardous Substance, and (3) any
condition caused by the presence, use or release of a Hazardous Substance which
adversely affects the value of the Property. If Borrower learns, or is notified
by any governmental or regulatory authority, or any private party, that any
removal or other remediation of any Hazardous Substance affecting the Property
is necessary, Borrower shall promptly take all necessary remedial actions in
accordance with Environmental Law. Nothing herein shall create any obligation on
Lender for an Environmental Cleanup.

         NON UNIFORM COVENANTS. Borrower and Lender further covenant and agree
as follows:
         22. ACCELERATION; REMEDIES. LENDER SHALL GIVE NOTICE TO BORROWER PRIOR
TO ACCELERATION FOLLOWING BORROWER'S BREACH OF ANY COVENANT OR AGREEMENT IN THIS
SECURITY INSTRUMENT (BUT NOT PRIOR TO ACCELERATION UNDER SECTION 18 UNLESS
APPLICABLE LAW PROVIDES OTHERWISE). THE NOTICE SHALL SPECIFY: (A) THE DEFAULT;
(B) THE ACTION REQUIRED TO CURE THE DEFAULT; (C) A DATE, NOT LESS THAN 30 DAYS
FROM THE DATE THE NOTICE IS GIVEN TO BORROWER, BY WHICH THE DEFAULT MUST BE
CURED; AND (D) THAT FAILURE TO CURE THE DEFAULT ON OR BEFORE THE DATE SPECIFIED
IN THE NOTICE MAY RESULT IN ACCELERATION OF THE SUMS SECURED BY THIS SECURITY
INSTRUMENT AND SALE OF THE PROPERTY. THE NOTICE SHALL FURTHER INFORM BORROWER OF
THE RIGHT TO REINSTATE AFTER ACCELERATION AND THE RIGHT TO ASSERT IN THE
FORECLOSURE PROCEEDING THE NON-EXISTENCE OF A DEFAULT OR ANY OTHER DEFENSE OF
BORROWER TO ACCELERATION AND SALE. IF THE DEFAULT IS NOT CURED ON OR BEFORE THE
DATE SPECIFIED IN THE NOTICE, LENDER AT ITS OPTION MAY REQUIRE IMMEDIATE PAYMENT
IN FULL OF ALL SUMS SECURED BY THIS SECURITY INSTRUMENT WITHOUT FURTHER DEMAND
AND MAY INVOKE THE POWER OF SALE AND ANY OTHER REMEDIES PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE
LAW. LENDER SHALL BE ENTITLED TO COLLECT ALL EXPENSES INCURRED IN PURSUING THE
REMEDIES PROVIDED IN THIS SECTION 22, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, REASONABLE
ATTORNEYS' FEES AND COSTS OF TITLE EVIDENCE.
         IF LENDER INVOKES THE POWER OF SALE, AND IF IT IS DETERMINED IN A
HEARING HELD IN ACCORDANCE WITH APPLICABLE LAW THAT TRUSTEE CAN PROCEED TO SALE,
TRUSTEE SHALL TAKE SUCH ACTION REGARDING NOTICE OF SALE AND SHALL GIVE SUCH
NOTICES TO BORROWER AND TO OTHER PERSONS AS APPLICABLE LAW MAY REQUIRE. AFTER
THE TIME REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW AND AFTER PUBLICATION OF THE NOTICE OF SALE,
TRUSTEE, WITHOUT DEMAND ON BORROWER, SHALL SELL THE PROPERTY AT PUBLIC AUCTION
TO THE HIGHEST BIDDER AT THE TIME AND PLACE AND UNDER THE TERMS DESIGNATED IN
THE NOTICE OF SALE IN ONE OR MORE PARCELS AND IN ANY ORDER TRUSTEE DETERMINES.
LENDER OR ITS DESIGNEE MAY PURCHASE THE PROPERTY AT ANY SALE.
         TRUSTEE SHALL DELIVER TO THE PURCHASER TRUSTEE'S DEED CONVEYING THE
PROPERTY WITHOUT ANY COVENANT OR WARRANTY, EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED. THE RECITALS IN
THE TRUSTEE'S DEED SHALL BE PRIMA FACIE EVIDENCE OF THE TRUTH OF THE STATEMENTS
MADE THEREIN. TRUSTEE SHALL APPLY THE PROCEEDS OF THE SALE IN THE FOLLOWING
ORDER: (A) TO ALL EXPENSES OF THE SALE, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, TRUSTEE'S
FEES OF TWO PERCENT (2)% OF THE GROSS SALE PRICE; (B) TO ALL SUMS SECURED BY
THIS SECURITY INSTRUMENT; AND (C) ANY EXCESS TO THE PERSON OR

                                       13

<PAGE>   14

PERSONS LEGALLY ENTITLED TO IT. THE INTEREST RATE SET FORTH IN THE NOTE SHALL
APPLY WHETHER BEFORE OR AFTER ANY JUDGMENT ON THE INDEBTEDNESS EVIDENCED BY THE
NOTE.
         23. RELEASE. Upon payment of all sums secured by this Security
Instrument, Lender or Trustee shall cancel this Security Instrument. If Trustee
is requested to release this Security Instrument, all notes evidencing debt
secured by this Security Instrument shall be surrendered to Trustee. Borrower
shall pay any recordation costs. Lender may charge Borrower a fee for releasing
this Security Instrument, but only if the fee is paid to a third party for
services rendered and the charging of the fee is permitted under Applicable Law.
Lender shall request or provide, as applicable, a reconveyance or release or
reconveyances or releases of the Property upon the receipt of principal payments
as provided in the Loan Agreement given in connection with the Revolver Note.
         24. SUBSTITUTE TRUSTEE. Lender may from time to time remove Trustee and
appoint a successor trustee to any Trustee appointed hereunder by an instrument
recorded in the county in which this Security Instrument is recorded. Without
conveyance of the Property, the successor trustee shall succeed to all the
title, power and duties conferred upon Trustee herein and by Applicable Law.
         25. ATTORNEY'S FEES. Attorneys' fees must be reasonable.
         26. CONFLICTING TERMS. To the extent the terms hereof conflict with the
terms of the Note the terms of the Note shall control.
