                                    Recitals:

Obligations of Borrower and the other Loan Parties contained in the Credit
Agreement and the other Security Documents;

combined group of companies, and Mortgagor and each of the other Subsidiary

benefits from the extension of credit under the Credit Agreement;

         WHEREAS, in order to induce the Lenders to make available to Borrower
said revolving and term credit facilities, Assignor has executed and delivered
to Assignee that certain Deed of Trust, Assignment of Leases and Rents, Security
Agreement and Fixture Filing (hereinafter, together with all amendments thereto
and modifications thereof, called the "INSTRUMENT") of even date herewith
covering certain real estate located in Los Angeles County, California and more

<PAGE>

attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference, together with all
buildings, improvements and other property more particularly described in the
Instrument, and all fixtures, furnishings, machinery, equipment and other
tangible property owned by Assignor and located on or used in connection with
such real property (all of which real and personal properties are herein called
the "PROPERTY") to secure, among other things, the due and punctual payment and
performance of the Secured Obligations (as defined in the Instrument);

         WHEREAS, to further secure the Loans and the prompt and complete
payment and performance of the Secured Obligations, Assignee and other Lenders
have required that Assignor absolutely assign to Assignee, for itself and on
behalf of Lenders, all of Assignor's right, title and interest in, to and under
any and all leases (hereinafter collectively referred to as the "LEASES" and
singularly as a "LEASE") now or hereafter in existence (as amended or
supplemented from time to time) and covering space in or applicable to the
Property, and Assignor desires and intends by this Assignment to assign to
Assignee all of Assignor's right, title and interest in, to and under the
Leases; and

         WHEREAS, all capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have
the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Credit Agreement.

         THEREFORE, Assignor agrees as follows:

         1.       Assignor does hereby absolutely and unconditionally grant,
transfer, bargain, sell, assign, convey, and set over unto Assignee, its
successors and assigns, all of the right, title and interest of Assignor in, to
and under the Leases, together with all rents, earnings, income, profits,
benefits and advantages arising from the Property and from said Leases and all
other sums due or to become due under and pursuant thereto, and together with
any and all guarantees of or under any of said Leases, and together with all
rights, powers, privileges, options and other benefits of Assignor as lessor
under the Leases, including, without limitation, the immediate and continuing
right to receive and collect all rents, income, revenues, issues, profits,
condemnation awards, insurance proceeds, moneys and security payable or
receivable under the Leases or pursuant to any of the provisions thereof,
whether as rent or otherwise, the right to accept or reject any offer made by
any tenant pursuant to its Lease to purchase the Property and any other property
subject to the Lease as therein provided and to perform all other necessary or
appropriate acts with respect to such Leases as agent and attorney-in-fact for
Assignor, and the right to make all waivers and agreements, to give and receive
all notices, consents and releases, to take such action upon the happening of a
default under any Lease, including the commencement, conduct and consummation of
proceedings at law or in equity as shall be permitted under any provision of any
Lease or by any law, and to do any and all other things whatsoever which the
Assignor is or may become entitled to do under any such Lease together with all
accounts receivable, contract rights, franchises, interests, estates or other
claims, both at law and in equity, relating to the Property, to the extent not
included in rent earnings and income under any of the Leases. It is intended by
Assignor that this Assignment constitute a present, absolute assignment of the
Leases, and not an assignment for additional security only. Notwithstanding the
provisions of this PARAGRAPH 1, so long as no Event of Default shall exist (and
remain uncured), Assignor shall have a license (revocable upon the occurrence of
an Event of Default) to occupy the Property as landlord or otherwise and to
collect, use and enjoy the rents, issues and profits and other sums payable
under and by virtue of any Lease or any guaranty thereof and to enforce the
covenants of the Leases and any guaranties thereof, provided that any amounts
collected by Assignor shall be held by Assignor in trust for the benefit of
Assignee for use in the payment of the Secured Obligations in accordance with
the terms of the Security Documents (as defined in the Instrument).

         2.       This Assignment is made and given and shall remain in full
force and effect until: (a) the payment in full of the Secured Obligations; and
(b) the performance and observance by Borrower and the other Loan Parties of all
of the terms, covenants and conditions to be performed or observed by Borrower
and the other Loan Parties, as applicable, under the Credit Agreement and the
other Security Documents.

                                       2
<PAGE>

         3.       Assignor represents, warrants, covenants and agrees: (a) that
Assignor has good right and authority to make this Assignment, and Assignor
holds the entire and unencumbered rights of the landlord under each of the
Leases; (b) that neither Assignor nor, to the best of Assignor's knowledge, any
predecessor lessor has heretofore alienated, assigned, pledged or otherwise
disposed of or encumbered the Leases, which remains effective as of the date
hereof, or any of the sums due or to become due thereunder, and that neither
Assignor nor, to the best of Assignor's knowledge, any predecessor lessor has
performed any acts or executed any other instruments which might prevent
Assignee from operating under any of the terms and conditions of this Assignment
or which would limit Assignee in such operation; (c) that Assignor has not
accepted or collected rent or any other payments under any Lease, other than
required security deposits, for any period subsequent to the current period for
which such rent or other payment has already become due and payable; (d) that
Assignor has not executed or granted any amendment or modification whatever of
any of the Leases, either orally or in writing, which deviate from the Lease
terms shown in any rent roll (the "RENT ROLL") delivered by Assignor to
Assignee; (e) that there is no default under any of the Leases now existing, if
any, and no event has occurred and is continuing which, with the lapse of time
or the giving of notice or both, would constitute an event of default under any
of the Leases; (f) that Assignor will observe, perform and discharge, duly and
punctually, the Secured Obligations and all and singular the obligations, terms,
covenants, conditions and warranties of the Security Documents and any Lease, on
the part of Assignor to be kept, observed and performed; (g) to enforce the
performance of each and every material obligation, term, covenant, condition and
agreement in said Leases by any tenant to be performed; (h) to appear in and
defend any action or proceeding arising under, occurring out of or in any manner
connected with said Leases, or the obligations, duties or liabilities of
Assignor or any tenant thereunder, and upon request by Assignee to do so in the
name and on behalf of Assignee, but at the expense of Assignor; (i) that
Assignor will, upon the request of Assignee, execute and deliver to Assignee
such further instruments and do and perform such other acts and things as
Assignee may deem reasonably necessary or appropriate to make effective this
Assignment and the various covenants of Assignor herein contained, and to more
effectively vest in and secure to Assignee the sums due or hereafter to become
due under the Leases, including, without limitation, the execution of such
additional assignments as shall be deemed necessary by Assignee effectively to
vest in and secure to Assignee all rents, income and profits from any and all
Leases; (j) that Assignor will from time to time, upon Assignee's request,
deliver to Assignee a true, correct and complete copy of each and every Lease
then affecting all or any portion of the Property; and (k) that in the event any
warranty or representation of Assignor herein shall be false or misleading in
any material respect or materially inaccurate, or Assignor shall default in the
observance or performance of any obligation, term, covenant or condition hereof
in any material respect, then, in each instance at the option of Assignee, the
same shall constitute and be deemed to be an Event of Default, thereby giving
Assignee the absolute right and option to exercise any and all rights and
remedies provided hereunder and under the other Security Documents, as well as
such remedies as may be available at law or in equity.

         4.       Except as otherwise provided in the Credit Agreement, Assignor
covenants and agrees that it will not, without in each instance the prior
written consent of Assignee: (a) enter into any Lease; (b) cancel any Lease or
accept a surrender thereof; (c) reduce the rent payable under any Lease or
accept payment of any installment of rent in advance of the due date thereof;
(d) change, amend, alter or modify any Lease or any of the terms or provisions
thereof, or grant any concession in connection therewith, in each case in any
manner adverse to Assignee; (e) consent to the release or reduction of the
obligations of the tenant under any Lease; (f) assign, pledge, encumber or
otherwise transfer any Lease or Assignor's rights thereunder; (g) consent to an
assignment of tenant's interest under any Lease or to a subletting thereof,
except to the extent any such assignment or subletting is specifically
authorized by such Lease; or (h) incur any indebtedness to the tenant or
guarantor of any Lease, for borrowed money or otherwise, which may under any
circumstances be availed of as an offset against the rent or other payments due
thereunder; and any of the above acts, if done without the consent of Assignee,
shall be, at the option of Assignee, null and void and shall constitute a
default hereunder.

                                       3
<PAGE>

         5.       Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Assignor hereby
consents to and irrevocably authorizes and directs the tenants under the Leases
and any successor to the interest of any of said tenants, upon demand and notice
from Assignee of the existence of an Event of Default and Assignee's right to
receive the rents and other amounts due under such Leases, to pay to Assignee
the rents and other amounts due or to become due under the Leases, and said
tenants shall have the right to rely upon such demand and notice from Assignee
and shall pay such rents and other amounts to Assignee without any obligation or
right to determine the actual existence of any Event of Default claimed by
Assignee as the basis for Assignee's right to receive such rents and other
amounts and notwithstanding any notice from or claim of Assignor to the
contrary, and Assignor shall have no right to claim against said tenants for any
such rents and other amounts so paid by said tenants to Assignee.

         6.       Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the right and
license granted to Assignor in PARAGRAPH 1 above shall be automatically revoked
and Assignee or its agent, at Assignee's option, shall have the complete right,
power and authority (a) upon delivery of written notice by Assignee to Assignor
of such Event of Default (containing a statement that Assignee shall exercise
its rights hereunder), without taking possession, to demand, collect and receive
and sue for the rents and other sums payable under the Leases and, after
deducting all reasonable costs and expenses of collection (including, without
limitation, attorneys' fees) as determined by Assignee, apply the net proceeds
thereof to the payment of the Secured Obligations, in such manner and priority
as Assignee shall determine, to the extent not inconsistent with the terms of
the other Security Documents; (b) to exercise any or all of the rights and
remedies contained in the Security Documents; and (c) without regard to the
adequacy of the security, with or without process of law, personally or by agent
or attorney, or by a receiver to be appointed by court, then and thereafter to
enter upon, take and maintain possession of and operate the Property, or any
part thereof, together with all documents, books, records, papers, and accounts
relating thereto and exclude Assignor and its agents and servants therefrom, and
hold, operate, manage and control the Property, or any part thereof, as fully
and to the same extent as Assignor could do if in possession and in such event,
without limitation and at the expense of Assignor, from time to time cause to be
made all necessary or proper repairs, renewals, replacements, useful
alterations, additions, betterments and improvements to the Property, or any
part thereof, as Assignee deems judicious, and pay taxes, assessments and prior
or proper charges on the Property, or any part thereof, and insure and reinsure
the same, and lease the Property, or any part thereof, for such terms and on
such terms as Assignee deems desirable, including Leases for terms expiring
beyond the maturity date of any of the Secured Obligations and cancel any Lease
or sublease thereof for any cause or on any ground which would entitle Assignor
to cancel the same.

         7.       After payment of all proper charges and expenses, including
the just and reasonable compensation for the services of Assignee, its
attorneys, agents, clerks, servants and others employed by Assignee in
connection with the operation, management and control of the Property and the
conduct of the business thereof after an of Default, and such further sums as
may be sufficient to indemnify Assignee and its agent from and against any
liability, loss or damage on account of any matter or thing done in good faith
in pursuance of the rights and powers of Assignee hereunder, Assignee may, at
its option, credit the net amount of income which Assignee may receive by virtue
of this Assignment and from the Property to any and all amounts due or owing to
Assignee from Borrower or the other Loan Parties under the terms and provisions
of the Credit Agreement and the other Security Documents. The balance of such
net income shall be released to or upon the order of Assignor. The manner of the
application of such net income and the item or items which shall be credited
shall be within the sole discretion of Assignee, in accordance with the Credit
Agreement and the other Security Documents.

         8.       The acceptance by Assignee of this Assignment, with all of the
rights, powers, privileges and authority so created, shall neither be deemed or
construed to constitute Assignee a mortgagee in possession nor at any time or in
any event to impose any obligation whatsoever upon Assignee to appear in or
defend any action or proceeding relating to the Leases or the Property, or to
take any action

                                       4
<PAGE>

hereunder, or to expend any money or incur any expenses, or perform or discharge
any obligation, duty or liability under the Leases, or to assume any obligation
or responsibility for any security deposits or other deposits delivered to
Assignor by any tenant and not assigned and delivered to Assignee, or render
Assignee or its agent liable in any way for any injury or damage to person or
property sustained by any person or entity in, on, or about the Property.

         9.       Assignor agrees that the collection of rents and the
application thereof as aforesaid or the entry upon and taking of possession of
the Property, or any part thereof, by Assignee or its agent shall not cure or
waive any Event of Default, or waive, modify or affect any notice of default
under any of the Security Documents, or invalidate any act done pursuant to such
notice, and the enforcement of such right or remedy by Assignee or its agent,
once exercised, shall continue for so long as Assignee shall elect. If Assignee
shall thereafter elect to discontinue the exercise of any such right or remedy,
the same or any other right or remedy hereunder may be reasserted at any time
and from time to time following any subsequent default.

         10.      The rights and remedies of Assignee hereunder are cumulative
and not in lieu of, but are in addition to, any rights or remedies which
Assignee shall have under any of the other Security Documents, or at law or in
equity, which rights and remedies may be exercised by Assignee either prior to,
simultaneously with, or subsequent to, any action taken hereunder. The rights
and remedies of Assignee may be exercised from time to time and as often as such
exercise is deemed expedient, and the failure of Assignee to avail itself of any
of the terms, provisions and conditions of this Assignment for any period of
time, at any time or times, shall not be construed or deemed to be a waiver of
any rights under the terms hereof.

         11.      The right of Assignee to collect and receive the rents
assigned hereunder or to take possession of the Property, or to exercise any of
the rights or powers herein granted to Assignee shall, to the extent not
prohibited by law, also extend to the period from and after the filing of any
suit to foreclose the lien created under any of the other Security Documents
which cover the Property, including any period allowed by law for the redemption
of the Property after any foreclosure sale.

         12.      In addition to the above, upon the occurrence of an Event of
Default, Assignor expressly consents to the appointment of a receiver for the
Property, without notice, either by the Assignee or a court of competent
jurisdiction, to take all acts in connection with the Property permitted by law
or in equity and to deduct from any and all rents received from the Leases a
reasonable fee, not to exceed the statutory amount, if any, in the county
wherein the Property is located, to compensate such receiver for its actions.

         13.      Except for any notice required under applicable law to be
given in another manner, any notice provided for in this Assignment from one
party to another party shall be given in accordance with Section 10.2 of the
Credit Agreement, and deemed effective as specified in the Credit Agreement.

         14.      ASSIGNOR AGREES TO INDEMNIFY, DEFEND AND HOLD ASSIGNEE AND
LENDERS HARMLESS OF, FROM AND AGAINST ANY AND ALL LIABILITY, LOSS, DAMAGE OR
EXPENSE, WHICH ASSIGNEE OR ANY LENDER MAY OR MIGHT INCUR UNDER OR BY REASON OF
THIS ASSIGNMENT, AND OF AND FROM ANY AND ALL CLAIMS AND DEMANDS WHATSOEVER WHICH
MAY BE ASSERTED AGAINST ASSIGNEE OR ANY LENDER BY REASON OF ANY ALLEGED
OBLIGATION OR UNDERTAKING ON THE PART OF ASSIGNEE OR ANY LENDER TO PERFORM OR
DISCHARGE ANY OF THE TERMS, COVENANTS OR AGREEMENTS CONTAINED IN THE LEASES;
PROVIDED, THAT ASSIGNOR SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY OF THE FOREGOING TO THE
EXTENT THEY ARISE FROM THE GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT OF ASSIGNEE OR
ANY LENDER. SHOULD ASSIGNEE OR ANY LENDER INCUR ANY SUCH LIABILITY, LOSS OR
DAMAGE UNDER OR BY REASON OF THIS ASSIGNMENT, OR IN THE DEFENSE OF ANY SUCH

                                       5
<PAGE>

CLAIMS OR DEMANDS, THE AMOUNT THEREOF, INCLUDING COSTS, EXPENSES AND REASONABLE
ATTORNEYS' FEES, TOGETHER WITH INTEREST THEREON FROM THE DATE OF DISBURSEMENT
UNTIL THE DATE OF ACTUAL PAYMENT AT THE MAXIMUM RATE PERMITTED UNDER APPLICABLE
LAW, SHALL BE SECURED BY THIS ASSIGNMENT AND BY THE INSTRUMENT, AND ASSIGNOR
SHALL REIMBURSE ASSIGNEE OR THE AFFECTED LENDER, AS APPLICABLE, THEREFOR
IMMEDIATELY UPON DEMAND, AND UPON FAILURE OF ASSIGNOR SO TO DO, ASSIGNEE MAY
DECLARE THE SECURED OBLIGATIONS IMMEDIATELY DUE AND PAYABLE.

         15.      To the extent permitted by the Credit Agreement, Assignee
shall have the right to assign, in whole or in part, the Credit Agreement, this
Assignment and any other Security Document and all of its rights hereunder and
thereunder, and all of the provisions herein and therein shall continue to apply
to the Secured Obligations.

         16.      All representations, warranties, covenants, powers and rights
herein contained shall be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of, Assignor
and Assignee and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

         17.      This Assignment may be executed, acknowledged and delivered in
any number of counterparts and each such counterpart shall constitute an
original, but together such counterparts shall constitute only one instrument.

         18.      If any one or more of the provisions of this Assignment, or
the applicability of any such provision to a specific situation, shall be held
invalid or unenforceable, such provision shall be modified to the minimum extent
necessary to make it or its application valid and enforceable, and the validity
and enforceability of all other provisions of this Assignment and all other
applications of any such provision shall not be affected thereby.

         19.      Upon a sale, conveyance, transfer or exchange of all or a part
of the Property, the term "ASSIGNOR" as used herein shall include the transferee
or grantee in such transaction. The preceding sentence shall not be deemed to
permit any sale, conveyance, transfer or exchange which is prohibited or
restricted by the terms of any other Security Document.

         20.      The laws of the jurisdiction in which the Property is located
shall govern this Assignment, without regard to the conflict of laws principles
of such jurisdiction.

         21.      If there is any conflict between the terms of this Assignment
and the terms of PARAGRAPH 25 of the Instrument, the terms of this Assignment
shall control.

         22.      ASSIGNOR HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY
RIGHT TRUSTOR MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING
BASED HEREON, OR ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONJUNCTION WITH THIS ASSIGNMENT,
THE INSTRUMENT OR ANY OTHER SECURITY DOCUMENT AND FOR ANY COUNTERCLAIM THEREIN.

<PAGE>

PROPERTY"; all of which, including replacements and additions thereto, shall be
deemed to be subject to the lien of this Instrument.

         TO HAVE AND TO HOLD the above granted and described Deed of Trust
Property unto and to the use and benefit of Trustee and its successors and
assigns, for the benefit of Beneficiary, forever, IN TRUST, WITH POWER OF SALE
AND RIGHT OF ENTRY AND POSSESSION.

         Except as provided in the Credit Agreement, the Deed of Trust Property
to remain so specially mortgaged, affected and hypothecated unto and in favor of
Beneficiary and any future holder or holders of the Secured Obligations until
the full and final payment of the Secured Obligations and a written cancellation
of this Instrument signed by Beneficiary, Trustor being hereby obligated not to
sell, alienate, deteriorate or otherwise encumber the Deed of Trust Property to
the prejudice of this Instrument except as provided in the Credit Agreement, and
not to permit or suffer the same to be so sold, alienated, deteriorated or
encumbered except as provided in the Credit Agreement.

         Trustor covenants that Trustor is lawfully seized of the estate hereby
conveyed and has the right to grant, convey and assign such estate in the Deed
of Trust Property (and, if this Instrument is on a leasehold, that the ground
lease is in full force and effect without modification except as noted above and
without default on the part of either lessor or lessee thereunder), subject to
the Permitted Encumbrances (as hereinafter defined), that the Deed of Trust
Property is unencumbered except for the Permitted Encumbrances, and that Trustor
shall forever warrant, defend and preserve the title and the validity and
priority of the lien of this Instrument and shall forever warrant and defend the
title to the Deed of Trust Property against all claims and demands, subject to
the Permitted Encumbrances.

         Trustor and Beneficiary, intending to be legally bound hereby, covenant
and agree as follows:

1.       DEFINITIONS.

         (a)      "PERMITTED ENCUMBRANCES" shall mean (i) current real estate
taxes or governmental charges or levies which are a lien but not yet due and
payable, (ii) any other items specifically listed in the schedules of exceptions
to coverage in the title policy insuring Beneficiary's interest in the Property,
and (iii) any other lien permitted pursuant to the terms of Section 7.3 of the
Credit Agreement that affects the Deed of Trust Property.

         (b)      The Credit Agreement, the Loan Documents, this Instrument,
that certain Assignment of Leases and Rents of even date herewith, from Trustor
and in favor of Beneficiary, in its capacity as administrative agent, and
relating to the Deed of Trust Property (the "ASSIGNMENT"), and any other
agreement or instrument now or hereafter evidencing, governing, securing, or
guaranteeing all or any part of the Secured Obligations are hereinafter
collectively called the "SECURITY DOCUMENTS".

         (c)      Unless otherwise defined herein, all capitalized terms shall
have the meaning ascribed to them in the Credit Agreement.

2.       PAYMENT AND PERFORMANCE OF SECURED OBLIGATIONS. Trustor shall promptly
pay and perform when due, and shall cause the Borrower and the other Loan
Parties to promptly pay and perform when due, the Secured Obligations.

3.       TAXES AND OTHER CHARGES; LIENS. Trustor shall duly pay and discharge
all taxes (including all documentary stamp taxes and intangible taxes),
assessments, vault, water and sewer rents, rates, charges and assessments,
premiums, levies, judgments, liens, claims, permits, inspection and license
fees, other governmental and quasi-governmental charges or other impositions
attributable to the Deed of Trust Property or this Instrument, and any penalties
or interest for non-payment thereof,

                                       4
<PAGE>

heretofore or hereafter imposed, or which may become a lien, upon the Deed of
Trust Property or arising with respect to the occupancy, use and possession
thereof (collectively, the "IMPOSITIONS"), by Trustor making payment, promptly
when due and before any penalty or interest may be added thereto, directly to
the payee thereof, or in such other manner as Beneficiary may designate in
writing. Further, if this Instrument is on a leasehold, Trustor shall duly pay
all ground rents and other charges payable under the ground lease, as same
become due and payable. Trustor shall promptly furnish to Beneficiary, upon
receipt of written notice from Beneficiary, all notices requested by Beneficiary
of amounts due under this PARAGRAPH 3, and in the event Trustor shall make
payment directly, Trustor shall promptly furnish to Beneficiary, upon receipt of
a written request therefor, receipts evidencing such payments. Subject to the
right to contest as provided below, Trustor shall promptly discharge any lien
(other than a Permitted Encumbrance) which has, or may have, priority over or
equality with, the lien of this Instrument, and Trustor shall duly pay and
discharge, when due, all claims for labor, material or supplies which if unpaid,
would become a lien upon the Deed of Trust Property (and not otherwise permitted
as a Permitted Encumbrance). Without Beneficiary's prior written permission, but
subject to the right to contest as provided below, Trustor shall not allow any
lien inferior to this Instrument (other than a Permitted Encumbrance) to be
perfected against the Deed of Trust Property. Trustor shall have the right to
contest the amount or validity of an Imposition, including, but not limited to,
any judgment, lien or claim, by appropriate proceedings diligently conducted in
good faith provided that (i) neither Trustor nor Beneficiary would by reason
thereof be subject to any civil or criminal liability (other than the payment of
the amount due and any interest or penalties thereon); (ii) neither the Deed of
Trust Property, nor any part thereof, would, by reason of such contest
(including any postponement or deferment in payment incident thereto), be, in
the reasonable judgment of Beneficiary, in danger of being forfeited or lost or
subject to any lien, encumbrance or charge against which Trustor shall not have
made adequate reserves (in the reasonable judgment of Beneficiary), or made a
deposit as provided under clause (iii) immediately following; and (iii) if the
amount in controversy, together with all other amounts subject to similar
controversy, exceeds $50,000.00 in the aggregate, Trustor shall have established
on its books adequate reserves with respect thereto in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles. Upon the termination of such proceedings, it
shall be the obligation of Trustor to pay the amount of such Impositions, or
part thereof, as finally determined in such proceedings to be due, the payment
of which may have been deferred during the prosecution of such proceedings,
together with any costs, fees (including reasonable attorneys' fees and
disbursements), interest, penalties and other liabilities in connection
therewith, and upon such payment Beneficiary shall return to Trustor, with
interest earned, if any, the amount deposited with it as aforesaid.

4.       HAZARD INSURANCE.

         (a)      Supplementing the provisions of Sections 4.22 and 6.5 of the
Credit Agreement, Trustor shall keep the Improvements now existing or hereafter
erected on the Property insured by carriers at all times reasonably satisfactory
to Beneficiary against loss by fire, hazards included within the term "extended
coverage", rent loss and such other hazards, casualties, liabilities and
contingencies as Beneficiary shall reasonably require and in such amounts and
for such periods as Beneficiary shall reasonably require. Trustor shall purchase
policies of insurance with respect to the Property with such insurers, in such
amounts and covering such risks as shall be reasonably satisfactory to
Beneficiary. In determining the reasonableness of Beneficiary's request, the
amounts and types of insurance coverages that are generally carried by similarly
situated businesses, as determined by Beneficiary, shall be presumed to be
reasonable. Trustor shall cause all insurance (except general public liability
insurance) carried in accordance with this PARAGRAPH 4 to be payable to
Beneficiary as a mortgagee and not as a coinsured, and, in the case of all
policies of insurance carried by each lessee for the benefit of Beneficiary, if
any, to cause all such policies to be payable to Beneficiary as Beneficiary's
interest may appear. All premiums on insurance policies heretofore set forth
(the "PREMIUMS") shall be paid promptly when due. Trustor shall deliver to
Beneficiary, within twenty (20) days of Beneficiary's request, a

                                       5
<PAGE>

certificate of Trustor's insurance agent, that all Premiums have been paid and
that the policies are in full force and effect.

         (b)      All insurance policies and renewals thereof shall be in a form
reasonably acceptable to Beneficiary and shall include a standard mortgagee
clause in favor of and in form acceptable to Beneficiary. Beneficiary shall have
the right to hold the policies, and Trustor shall promptly furnish to
Beneficiary all renewal notices and all receipts of paid Premiums. At least
thirty (30) days prior to the expiration date of a policy, Trustor shall deliver
to Beneficiary, at Beneficiary's request, evidence that the policy has been
renewed or a new policy issued, and that all Premiums relating thereto have been
paid, in a form reasonably satisfactory to Beneficiary.

         (c)      In the event of loss, Trustor shall give prompt written notice
to the insurance carrier and to Beneficiary and, subject to Trustor's right to
reinvest the net proceeds resulting therefrom pursuant to the Credit Agreement,
all net proceeds resulting therefrom shall be applied to the payment of the
Secured Obligations pursuant to the Credit Agreement.

         (d)      If the Property is sold pursuant to PARAGRAPH 40 hereof or if
Beneficiary acquires title to the Property, Beneficiary shall have all of the
right, title and interest of Trustor in and to any insurance policies and
unearned premiums thereon and in and to the proceeds resulting from any damage
to the Property prior to such sale or acquisition.

5.       ESCROW FUND. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in
PARAGRAPHS 3 OR 4 hereof, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Trustor
shall, at the option of Beneficiary and following Trustor's receipt of written
notice from Beneficiary, pay to Beneficiary on the first day of each calendar
month at the address set forth in such notice one-twelfth of an amount (the
"ESCROW FUND") which would be sufficient to pay for the Impositions and the
Premiums payable, or reasonably estimated by Beneficiary to be payable, during
the ensuing twelve (12) months. Beneficiary will apply the Escrow Fund to the
payment of the Impositions and the Premiums which are required to be paid by
Trustor pursuant to the provisions of this Instrument. If the amount of the
Escrow Fund shall exceed the amount of the Impositions and the Premiums payable
by Trustor pursuant to the provisions of this Instrument, Beneficiary shall, in
its discretion, (a) return any excess to Trustor, (b) credit such excess against
future payments to be made to the Escrow Fund or (c) credit such excess against
the Secured Obligations in such priority and in such proportions as Beneficiary
in its sole discretion shall deem proper. If the Escrow Fund is not sufficient
to pay for the Impositions and the Premiums as the same become payable, Trustor
shall pay Beneficiary, upon request, an amount which Beneficiary shall
reasonably estimate as sufficient to make up the deficiency. Until expended or
applied as provided in this PARAGRAPH 5, any amounts in the Escrow Fund may be
commingled with the general funds of Beneficiary and shall constitute additional
security for the Secured Obligations and shall bear no interest.

6.       PRESERVATION AND MAINTENANCE OF DEED OF TRUST PROPERTY. Trustor (a)
shall not commit waste or permit impairment or deterioration (other than normal
wear and tear) of the Deed of Trust Property, (b) shall not abandon the Deed of
Trust Property, (c) shall restore or repair promptly and in a good and
workmanlike manner all Improvements located on the Land that are reasonably
necessary to the operation of the business presently operated thereon to good
working order and condition, to at least the equivalent of its condition
immediately prior to any event of damage, injury or loss thereof, or such other
condition as Beneficiary may approve in writing, in the event of any such
damage, injury or loss thereto, whether or not insurance proceeds are available
to cover in whole or in part the costs of such restoration or repair, (d) shall
keep the Property, including, but not limited to, the Improvements and all
fixtures, equipment, machinery and appliances thereon in good repair, and shall
replace fixtures, equipment, machinery and appliances on the Property when
necessary, (e) shall comply with all laws, ordinances, regulations and
requirements of any governmental body applicable to the

                                       6
<PAGE>

Property, including, but not limited to, the Americans with Disabilities Act of
1990 except, in each case, to the extent that the failure to comply therewith
would not, in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect, and (f) shall give notice in writing to Beneficiary of and, unless
otherwise directed in writing by Beneficiary, appear in and defend any action or
proceeding purporting to affect the Deed of Trust Property, the security of this
Instrument or the rights or powers of Beneficiary. Except when incident to the
replacement of fixtures, equipment, machinery or appliances with items of like
kind and except as provided in the Credit Agreement, Trustor shall not remove,
demolish or materially alter any Improvement now existing or hereafter erected
on the Land without Beneficiary's prior written consent.

         If this Instrument is on a leasehold, Trustor shall (i) perform all of
the covenants and conditions required to be performed by it under the ground
lease, (ii) give immediate written notice to Beneficiary of any default by
lessor under the ground lease or of any notice received by Trustor from such
lessor of any default under the ground lease by Trustor, (iii) exercise any
option to renew or extend the ground lease and give written confirmation thereof
to Beneficiary within thirty (30) days after such option becomes exercisable,
(iv) give immediate written notice to Beneficiary of the commencement of any
remedial proceedings under the ground lease by any party thereto and, upon the
occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default if required by
Beneficiary, shall permit Beneficiary as Trustor's attorney-in-fact to control
and act for Trustor in any such remedial proceedings and (v) within thirty (30)
days after request by Beneficiary, obtain from the lessor under the ground lease
and deliver to Beneficiary the lessor's estoppel certificate required
thereunder, if any. Trustor hereby expressly collaterally transfers and assigns
to Beneficiary the benefit of all covenants contained in the ground lease,
whether or not such covenants run with the land, but Beneficiary shall have no
liability with respect to such covenants nor any other covenants contained in
the ground lease.

         Except as permitted pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement,
Trustor shall not surrender the leasehold estate and interests herein conveyed
nor terminate or cancel the ground lease creating said estate and interests, and
Trustor shall not, without the express written consent of Beneficiary, alter or
amend said ground lease. Trustor covenants and agrees that there shall not be a
merger of the ground lease, or of the leasehold estate created thereby, with the
fee estate covered by the ground lease by reason of said leasehold estate or
said fee estate, or any part of either, coming into common ownership, unless
Beneficiary shall consent in writing to such merger, if Trustor shall acquire
such fee estate, then this Instrument shall simultaneously and without further
action be spread so as to become a lien on such fee estate.

7.       USE OF PROPERTY. Unless required by applicable law or unless
Beneficiary has otherwise consented in writing, Trustor shall not allow changes
in the use for which all or any part of the Property was intended at the time
this Instrument was executed, except as may be necessary or desirable in
connection with the conduct of Trustor's business thereon and provided same
shall be permitted under applicable law. Trustor shall not subdivide the
Property or initiate or acquiesce in a change in the zoning classification of
the Property without Beneficiary's prior written consent.

8.       PROTECTION OF LENDER'S SECURITY. If Trustor fails to perform the
covenants and agreements contained in this Instrument following the expiration
of any notice or cure period under the Credit Agreement, or if any action or
proceeding is commenced which affects all of or any portion of the Deed of Trust
Property or title thereto or the interest of Beneficiary therein, including, but
not limited to, eminent domain, insolvency, code enforcement, or arrangements or
proceedings involving a bankrupt or decedent, then Beneficiary, at Beneficiary's
option, may make such appearances, disburse such sums and take such action as
Beneficiary deems necessary, in its sole discretion, to protect Beneficiary's
interest, including, but not limited to, (i) disbursement of attorneys' fees,
(ii) entry upon the Property to make repairs, (iii) procurement of satisfactory
insurance as provided in PARAGRAPH 4 hereof, (iv) if this

                                       7
<PAGE>

Instrument is on a leasehold, exercise of any option to renew or extend the
ground lease on behalf of Trustor and the curing of any default of Trustor in
the terms and conditions of the ground lease, and (v) the payment of any
Impositions levied against the Property then due and payable.

         Any amounts disbursed by Beneficiary pursuant to this PARAGRAPH 8, with
interest thereon, shall become additional indebtedness of Trustor secured by
this Instrument and shall automatically be included in the Secured Obligations.
Unless Trustor and Beneficiary agree to other terms of payment, such amounts
shall be immediately due and payable promptly after Trustor's receipt of a
written demand from Beneficiary for payment thereof and shall bear interest from
the date of disbursement at a rate per annum equal to the rate per annum payable
on past due Base Rate Loans under the Credit Agreement. Trustor hereby covenants
and agrees that Beneficiary shall be subrogated to the lien of any mortgage or
other lien discharged, in whole or in part, by the indebtedness secured hereby.
Nothing contained in this PARAGRAPH 8 shall require Beneficiary to incur any
expense or take any action hereunder.

9.       INSPECTION. Upon reasonable advance notice to Trustor (unless in the
event of an emergency where no advance notice shall be required), Beneficiary
may make or cause to be made reasonable entries upon and inspections of the
Property including, but not limited to, phase I and/or phase II environmental
audits and inspections which entries upon and inspections of the Property
(including phase I and II audits and inspections) will not unreasonably disturb
Trustor's use of the Property. The cost of any such inspection or audit shall be
borne by Trustor if Beneficiary has a reasonable basis to believe that there may
be a violation of applicable laws or a release of hazardous materials, on, at,
in, under, above, to, from or about the Property and the inspection or audit
confirms such belief.

10.      BOOKS AND RECORDS; FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. Trustor shall comply with the
requirements of Sections 6.1 and 6.2 of the Credit Agreement insofar as such
requirements affect the Deed of Trust Property.

11.      CONDEMNATION. Trustor shall promptly notify Beneficiary of any action
or proceeding relating to any condemnation or other taking, whether direct or
indirect, affecting the Property, or any part thereof, and Trustor shall appear
in and prosecute any such action or proceeding unless otherwise directed by
Beneficiary in writing following the occurrence and during the continuance of an
Event of Default. Trustor authorizes Beneficiary, at Beneficiary's option,
following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, as
attorney in fact for Trustor, to commence, appear in and prosecute, in
Beneficiary's or Trustor's name, any action or proceeding relating to any
condemnation or other taking of the Property, or part thereof, whether direct or
indirect, to settle or compromise any claim in connection with such condemnation
or other taking and to execute any and all documents as may be required in
connection therewith. Trustor's appointment of Beneficiary as its
attorney-in-fact is irrevocable and coupled with an interest. Except as
otherwise provided in the Credit Agreement, in which case the terms of the
Credit Agreement shall govern, the proceeds of any award, payment or claim for
damages, direct or consequential, in connection with any condemnation or other
taking, whether direct or indirect, of the Property, or part thereof, or for
conveyances in lieu of condemnation, are hereby assigned to and shall be paid to
Beneficiary subject, if this Instrument is on a leasehold, to the rights of
lessor under the ground lease.

         Provided no Event of Default shall have occurred (which remains
uncured), Beneficiary shall apply such awards, payments, proceeds or damages,
after the deduction of Beneficiary's expenses incurred in the collection of such
amounts, first, to restoration or repair of the remaining Property, second, to
payment of the Secured Obligations, and third, to Trustor. Trustor agrees to
execute such further evidence of assignment of any awards, proceeds, damages or
claims arising in connection with such condemnation or taking as Beneficiary may
require.

                                       8
<PAGE>

         To the extent permitted by applicable law, Trustor hereby specifically,
unconditionally and irrevocably waives all rights of a property owner granted
under California Code of Civil Procedure Section 1265.225(a), which provides for
allocation of condemnation proceeds between a property owner and a lienholder,
and any other law or successor statute of similar import.

12.      TRUSTOR AND LIEN NOT RELEASED. From time to time, Beneficiary or any of
the Lenders may, at its option, without giving notice to or obtaining the
consent of Trustor, Trustor's successors or assigns or of any junior lien-holder
or guarantors, without liability on the part of Beneficiary or any Lender and
notwithstanding Trustor's breach of any covenant or agreement of Trustor in this
Instrument, extend the time for payment of the Secured Obligations or any part
thereof, reduce the payments thereon, release anyone liable on any part of the
Secured Obligations, accept a renewal note or notes therefor, modify the terms
and time of payment of the Secured Obligations, release from the lien of this
Instrument any part of the Deed of Trust Property, take or release other or
additional security, reconvey any part of the Deed of Trust Property, consent to
any map or plan of the Property, consent to the granting of any easement, join
in any extension or subordination agreement, and/or agree in writing with any of
the other Loan Parties to modify the terms of any other Security Document. Any
actions taken by Beneficiary or any of the Lenders pursuant to the terms of this
PARAGRAPH 12 shall not affect the obligation of Trustor or Trustor's successors
or assigns to pay and perform the Secured Obligations and to observe the
covenants of Trustor contained herein, and shall not affect the lien or priority
of lien hereof on the Deed of Trust Property. Trustor shall pay Beneficiary all
expenses incurred by Beneficiary, including, without limitation, all title
insurance premiums and reasonable attorneys' fees as may be incurred at
Beneficiary's option, for any such action if taken at Trustor's request.

13.      FORBEARANCE BY BENEFICIARY NOT A WAIVER. Any forbearance by Beneficiary
in exercising any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise afforded by applicable
law, shall not be a waiver of or preclude the exercise of any right or remedy.
The acceptance by Beneficiary of payment of any sum secured by this Instrument
after the due date of such payment shall not be a waiver of Beneficiary's right
to either require prompt payment when due of all other sums so secured or to
declare a default for failure to make prompt payment. The procurement of
insurance or the payment of taxes or other liens or charges by Beneficiary shall
not be a waiver of Beneficiary's right to exercise its remedies hereunder, nor
shall Beneficiary's receipt of any awards, proceeds or damages pursuant to the
provisions of this Instrument operate to cure or waive Trustor's default in
payment of the Secured Obligations.

14.      ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATE. Trustor shall, within ten (10) days of a written
request from Beneficiary, furnish Beneficiary with a written statement, duly
acknowledged, setting forth the Secured Obligations and any right of set-off,
counterclaim or other defense which exists against such sums and the obligations
of this Instrument and the other Security Documents and attaching true, correct
and complete copies of this Instrument and the other Security Documents and any
and all modifications, amendments and substitutions thereof.

15.      UNIFORM COMMERCIAL CODE SECURITY AGREEMENT; FIXTURE FILING. This
Instrument is intended to be a security agreement pursuant to the Uniform
Commercial Code as enacted in the State in which the Deed of Trust Property is
located (the "UNIFORM COMMERCIAL CODE"), for any of the items of personal
property specified above as part of the Deed of Trust Property which, under
applicable law, may be subject to a security interest pursuant to the Uniform
Commercial Code, and Trustor hereby grants Beneficiary a security interest in
said items. Trustor agrees that Beneficiary may file this Instrument, or a
reproduction thereof, in the real estate records or other appropriate index, as
a financing statement for any of the items specified above as part of the Deed
of Trust Property. Any reproduction of this Instrument or of any other security
agreement or financing statement shall be sufficient as a financing statement.
In addition, Trustor agrees to execute and deliver to Beneficiary, upon
Beneficiary's request, any financing statements, as well as extensions, renewals
and amendments thereof,

                                       9
<PAGE>

and reproductions of this Instrument, in such form as Beneficiary may require to
perfect a security interest with respect to said items. Further, Trustor
authorizes Beneficiary to file Uniform Commercial Code financing statements in
Los Angeles County, California and such other jurisdictions as Beneficiary may
require in order to perfect and provide notice of the liens and security
interested created hereunder. Trustor shall pay all costs of filing such
financing statements and any extensions, renewals, amendments and releases
thereof, and shall pay all reasonable costs and expenses of any record searches
for financing statements Beneficiary may require. Except for Permitted
Encumbrances and except as otherwise permitted under the Credit Agreement,
without the prior written consent of Beneficiary, Trustor shall not create or
suffer to be created pursuant to the Uniform Commercial Code any other security
interest in said items, including replacements and additions thereto. Upon the
occurrence of an Event of Default, Beneficiary shall have the remedies of a
secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code and may also invoke such
remedies under the Uniform Commercial Code and the remedies provided in
PARAGRAPH 26 hereof as to such items. In exercising any of said remedies,
Beneficiary may proceed against the items of real property and any items of
personal property specified above as part of the Deed of Trust Property
separately or together and in any order whatsoever, without in any way affecting
the availability of Beneficiary's remedies under the Uniform Commercial Code or
of the remedies provided in PARAGRAPH 26 hereof.

16.      LEASES OF THE PROPERTY. As used in this PARAGRAPH 16, the word "lease"
shall mean "sublease" if this Instrument is on a leasehold. Trustor shall comply
with and observe Trustor's obligations as landlord under all leases of the
Property or any part thereof. Except as provided in the Credit Agreement,
Trustor will not, without in each instance obtaining the prior written approval
of Beneficiary, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, but may be
conditioned on the delivery by Trustor of a further assignment of rents and
leases in recordable form, enter into any Lease.

         The request for approval of any proposed lease shall be made to
Beneficiary in writing and Trustor shall furnish to Beneficiary: (i) such
biographical and financial information about the proposed tenant as Beneficiary
may reasonably require in conjunction with its review, (ii) a copy of the
proposed form of lease, and (iii) a summary of the material terms of such
proposed lease (including, without limitation, rental terms and the term of the
proposed lease and any options).

         Trustor, at Beneficiary's request, shall furnish Beneficiary with
executed copies of all leases hereafter made of all or any part of the Property,
and all leases hereafter entered into will be in form and substance subject to
the approval of Beneficiary, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld,
conditioned or delayed. All leases of the Property (or a separate agreement in
recordable form and substance satisfactory to Beneficiary) shall specifically
provide that such leases are subordinate to this Instrument; that the tenant
thereunder attorns to Beneficiary, such attornment to be effective upon
Beneficiary's acquisition of title to the Property; that the tenant agrees to
execute such further evidences of subordination and/or attornment as Beneficiary
may from time to time request; that the attornment of the tenant shall not be
terminated by foreclosure; that in no event shall Beneficiary, as holder of this
Instrument or as successor landlord, be liable to the tenant for any act or
omission of any prior landlord or for any liability or obligation of any prior
landlord occurring prior to the date that Beneficiary or any subsequent owner
acquire title to the Property; and that Beneficiary will not disturb the
tenant's quiet enjoyment of the Property unless an event of default on the part
of the tenant occurs.

17.      REMEDIES CUMULATIVE. Each remedy provided in this Instrument is
distinct and cumulative to all other rights or remedies under this Instrument or
afforded by law or equity, and may be exercised concurrently, independently, or
successively, in any order whatsoever.

18.      ACCELERATION IN CASE OF TRUSTOR'S INSOLVENCY. If Trustor shall
voluntarily file a petition under Title 11 of the U.S. Code (the "ACT"), as such
Act may from time to time be amended, or under any similar or successor Federal
statute relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, arrangements or

                                       10
<PAGE>

reorganizations, or under any state bankruptcy or insolvency act, or file an
answer in any involuntary proceeding admitting insolvency or inability to pay
debts, or if Trustor shall fail to obtain a vacation or stay of involuntary
proceedings brought for the reorganization, dissolution or liquidation of
Trustor, within sixty (60) days of the filing of such involuntary proceeding, or
if Trustor shall be adjudged a bankrupt, or if a trustee or receiver shall be
appointed for Trustor or Trustor's property, or if the Deed of Trust Property
shall become subject to the jurisdiction of a federal bankruptcy court or
similar state court, or if Trustor shall make an assignment for the benefit of
Trustor's creditors, or if there is an attachment, execution or other judicial
seizure of any portion of Trustor's assets and such seizure is not discharged
within ten (10) days, then Beneficiary may, at Beneficiary's option, declare the
Secured Obligations to be immediately due and payable without prior notice to
Trustor, and Beneficiary may invoke any remedies permitted by PARAGRAPH 26
hereof. Any attorneys' fees and other expenses incurred by Beneficiary in
connection with Trustor's bankruptcy or any of the other aforesaid events shall
be additional indebtedness of Trustor secured by this Instrument pursuant to
PARAGRAPH 8 hereof.

19.      TRANSFERS OF THE DEED OF TRUST PROPERTY OR BENEFICIAL INTERESTS IN
TRUSTOR. Except to the extent the same does not violate the terms of this
Instrument or the Credit Agreement, neither Trustor nor any constituent thereof
shall sell, encumber, lease, transfer, pledge, assign, dispose of or convey, (i)
all or any part of the Deed of Trust Property, or any interest therein, (ii) all
or substantially all of the assets of Trustor, or (iii) all or any part of the
beneficial interests in Trustor.

20.      NOTICES. Except for any notice required under applicable law to be
given in another manner, any notice to Trustor or Beneficiary provided for in
this Instrument shall be deemed to have been given if given in accordance with
the terms of the Credit Agreement. Trustor's and Beneficiary's addresses are set
forth above and each may designate a substitute address by notice given in
accordance with the terms hereof. Any notice to the Trustee shall be given in
the manner specified in this Instrument and to the address specified at the head
of this Instrument.

21.      SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS BOUND; JOINT AND SEVERAL LIABILITY; AGENTS;
CAPTIONS. The covenants and agreements herein contained shall bind, and the
rights hereunder shall inure to, the respective successors and permitted assigns
of Beneficiary and Trustor. If Trustor is comprised of more than one entity or
person, all covenants and agreements of Trustor shall be joint and several. In
exercising any rights hereunder or taking any actions provided for herein,
Beneficiary may act through its employees, agents or independent contractors as
authorized by Beneficiary. The captions and headings of the paragraphs of this
Instrument are for convenience only and are not to be used to interpret or
define the provisions hereof.

22.      GOVERNING LAW; SEVERABILITY. This Instrument shall be governed by the
law of the State of California. In the event that any provision of this
Instrument conflicts with applicable law, such conflict shall not affect other
provisions of this Instrument which can be given effect without the conflicting
provisions, and to this end the provisions of this Instrument are declared to be
severable. In the event that any applicable law limiting the amount of interest
or other charges permitted to be taken, received, reserved, charged or collected
from Trustor is interpreted so that any charge provided for in this Instrument,
whether considered separately or together with other charges levied in
connection with this Instrument, violates such law, and Trustor is entitled to
the benefit of such law, such charge is hereby reduced to the extent necessary
to eliminate such violation. The amounts, if any, previously paid to Beneficiary
in excess of the amounts payable to Beneficiary pursuant to such charges as
reduced shall be applied against the Secured Obligations in such priority and in
such proportions as Beneficiary in its sole discretion shall deem proper. For
the purposes of determining whether any applicable law limiting the amount of
interest or other charges permitted to be taken, received, reserved, charged or
collected from Trustor has been violated, all indebtedness which is secured by
this Instrument and which constitutes

                                       11
<PAGE>

interest, as well as all other charges levied in connection with such
indebtedness which constitute interest, shall be deemed to be amortized,
prorated, allocated and spread over the stated term of the Credit Agreement.
Unless otherwise required by applicable law, such allocation and spreading shall
be effected in such a manner that the rate of interest computed thereby is
uniform throughout the stated term of the Credit Agreement.

23.      WAIVER OF STATUTE OF LIMITATIONS. To the extent permitted by applicable
law, Trustor hereby waives the right to assert any statute of limitations as a
bar to the enforcement of the lien of this Instrument or any other Security
Document or to any action brought to enforce the payment and performance of the
Secured Obligations.

24.      WAIVER OF MARSHALLING AND OTHER RIGHTS. Notwithstanding the existence
of any other security interest in the Deed of Trust Property held by Beneficiary
or by any other party, Beneficiary shall have the right to determine the order
in which any or all of the Deed of Trust Property shall be subjected to the
remedies provided herein. Beneficiary shall have the right to determine the
order in which any or all portions of the Secured Obligations secured hereby are
satisfied from the proceeds realized upon the exercise of the remedies provided
herein. To the extent permitted by applicable law, Trustor, any party who
consents to this Instrument and any party who now or hereafter acquires a
security interest in the Deed of Trust Property and who has actual or
constructive notice hereof hereby waives any and all right to require the
marshalling of assets in connection with the exercise of any of the remedies
permitted by applicable law or provided herein, including any rights provided by
California Civil Code Sections 2899 and 3433, as such Sections may be amended
from time to time. Trustor hereby waives the benefit of all appraisement,
valuation, stay, extensions, exemption laws or any so-called "Moratorium Laws"
now existing or hereafter enacted.

25.      ASSIGNMENT OF RENTS; APPOINTMENT OF RECEIVER; MORTGAGEE IN POSSESSION.
Trustor hereby absolutely and unconditionally assigns and transfers to
Beneficiary all of Trustor's right, title and interest in all rents and revenues
of the Property, including those now due, past due, or to become due by virtue
of any Lease, regardless of to whom such rents and revenues of the Property are
payable. Trustor hereby authorizes Beneficiary or Beneficiary's agents to
collect the aforesaid rents and revenues and hereby directs each tenant and
subtenant of the Property to pay such rents, to Beneficiary or Beneficiary's
agents; provided, however, that prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default,
Trustor shall be permitted to take all action required under and enforce any
rights or liabilities under the Leases and shall have a license to collect and
receive all rents and revenues of the Property as trustee for the benefit of
Beneficiary and Trustor, to apply the rents and revenues so collected to the
sums secured by this Instrument with the balance, to the account of Trustor and
take such other actions as Trustor shall be permitted to take pursuant to the
license granted in Section 1 of the Assignment of Leases (the "LICENSE"), it
being intended by Trustor and Beneficiary that this assignment of rents
constitutes an absolute assignment and not an assignment for additional security
only. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and upon delivery of written
notice by Beneficiary to Trustor of such Event of Default (containing a
statement that Beneficiary shall exercise its rights to the rents), and without
the necessity of Beneficiary entering upon and taking and maintaining full
control of the Property in person, by agent or by a court-appointed receiver,
Beneficiary shall immediately be entitled to possession of all of Trustor's
rents and revenues of the Property as specified in this PARAGRAPH 25 as the same
become due and payable, including, but not limited to, rents then due and
unpaid, and all such rents shall immediately be held by Trustor in trust for the
benefit of Beneficiary only. Trustor agrees that commencing upon delivery of
such written notice by Beneficiary to Trustor, each tenant of the Property shall
make such rents payable to and pay such rents to Beneficiary or Beneficiary's
agents on Beneficiary's written demand to each tenant and subtenant therefor,
delivered to each tenant and subtenant personally or by mail, without any
liability on the part of said tenant or subtenant to inquire further as to the
existence of a

                                       12
<PAGE>

default by Trustor, and Trustor shall have no right to claim against said tenant
or subtenant for any such rents and other amounts so paid by the tenant or
subtenant to Beneficiary.

         Trustor hereby covenants that Trustor has not executed any prior
assignment of said rents, that Trustor has not performed, and will not perform,
any acts or has not executed, and will not execute, any instrument which would
prevent Beneficiary from exercising its rights under this PARAGRAPH 25, and that
at the time of execution of this Instrument there has been no anticipation or
prepayment of any of the rents of the Property for more than one month prior to
the due dates of such rents. Trustor covenants that Trustor will not hereafter
collect or accept payment of any rents of the Property more than one month prior
to the due dates of such rents. Trustor further covenants that Trustor will
execute and deliver to Beneficiary such further assignments of rents and
revenues of the Property as Beneficiary may from time to time request.

         Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Beneficiary shall be
entitled to require the appointment of a receiver for the Property, without
notice to Trustor or any other person or entity and Beneficiary may in person,
by agent or by a court-appointed receiver, regardless of the adequacy of
Beneficiary's security, enter upon and take and maintain full control of the
Property in order to perform all acts necessary and appropriate for the
operation and maintenance thereof including, but not limited to, the execution,
cancellation or modification of Leases, the collection of all rents and revenues
of the Property, the enforcement or fulfillment of any terms, condition or
provision of any Lease, the making of repairs to the Property and the execution
or termination of contracts providing for the management or maintenance of the
Property, and the entering into Leases on the Property, or any part thereof, for
such terms as Beneficiary deems desirable, all on such terms as are deemed best
to protect the security of this Instrument. In the event Beneficiary elects to
seek the appointment of a receiver for the Property as aforesaid, Trustor hereby
expressly consents to the appointment of such receiver. Beneficiary or the
receiver shall be entitled to receive a reasonable fee for so managing the
Property.

         All rents and revenues collected subsequent to an Event of Default and
the appointment of a receiver for the Property as aforesaid shall be applied
first to the costs, if any, of taking control of and managing the Property and
collecting the rents, including, but not limited to, attorneys' fees, receiver's
fees, premiums on receiver's bonds, costs of repairs to the Property, premiums
on insurance policies, taxes, assessments and other charges on the Property, and
the costs of discharging any obligation or liability of Trustor as lessor or
landlord of the Property and then to the Secured Obligations in such priority
and in such proportion as Beneficiary in its sole discretion deems proper.
Beneficiary or the receiver shall have access to the books and records used in
the operation and maintenance of the Property and shall be liable to account
only for those rents actually received. Beneficiary shall not be liable to
Trustor, anyone claiming under or through Trustor or anyone having an interest
in the Property by reason of anything done or left undone by Beneficiary under
this PARAGRAPH 25.

         If the rents of the Property are not sufficient to meet the costs, if
any, of taking control of and managing the Property and collecting the rents,
any funds expended by Beneficiary for such purposes shall become indebtedness of
Trustor to Beneficiary secured by this Instrument pursuant to PARAGRAPH 8
hereof. Unless Beneficiary and Trustor agree in writing to other terms of
payment, such amounts shall be payable upon notice from Beneficiary to Trustor
requesting payment thereof and shall bear interest from the date of disbursement
at a rate per annum equal to the rate per annum payable on past due Base Rate
Loans under the Credit Agreement.

         Any entering upon and taking and maintaining of control of the Property
by Beneficiary or the receiver and any application of rents as provided herein
shall not cure or waive any default hereunder or invalidate any other right or
remedy of Beneficiary under applicable law or provided herein. This assignment
of rents of the Property shall terminate upon (i) payment in full of the Secured
Obligations

                                       13
<PAGE>

and (ii) the performance and observance of all terms, covenants and conditions
to be performed or observed by the Loan Parties under the Security Documents.

         This assignment of rents of the Property shall neither be deemed or
construed to constitute Beneficiary a mortgagee in possession nor at any time or
in any event to impose any obligation whatsoever upon Beneficiary to appear in
or defend any action or proceeding relating to the Leases or the Property, or to
take any action hereunder, or to expend any money or incur any expenses, or
perform or discharge any obligation, duty or liability under the Leases, or to
assume any obligation or responsibility for any security deposits or other
deposits delivered to Trustor by any tenant and not assigned and delivered to
Beneficiary, or render Beneficiary liable in any way for any injury or damage to
person or property sustained by any person or entity in, on, or about the
Property.

         Trustor agrees that the collection of rents and the application thereof
as aforesaid or the entry upon and taking of possession of the Property, or any
part thereof, by Beneficiary shall not cure or waive any default, or waive,
modify or affect any notice of default under any of the Security Documents, or
invalidate any act done pursuant to such notice, and the enforcement of such
right or remedy by Beneficiary, once exercised, shall continue for so long as
Beneficiary shall elect. If Beneficiary shall thereafter elect to discontinue
the exercise of any such right or remedy, the same or any other right or remedy
thereunder may be reasserted at any time and from time to time following any
subsequent Event of Default.

26.      ACCELERATION; REMEDIES. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default,
Beneficiary may: (i) apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for, and
obtain appointment of, a receiver for the Property; (ii) in person, by agent or
by court-appointed receiver, enter, take possession of, manage and operate all
or any part of the Property, and may also do any and all other things in
connection with those actions that Beneficiary may in its sole discretion
consider necessary and appropriate to protect the security of this Instrument;
(iii) exercise any or all of the remedies granted to a secured party under the
Uniform Commercial Code; (iv) bring an action in any court of competent
jurisdiction to foreclose this Instrument or to obtain specific enforcement of
any of the covenants or agreements of this Instrument; and/or (v) invoke the
power of sale and any other remedies permitted by applicable law or provided
herein. Trustor acknowledges that, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default,
Beneficiary, without prior judicial hearing, may exercise the power of sale
granted in PARAGRAPH 40 below. Trustor acknowledges that any proceeds of any
non-judicial foreclosure sale under the power of sale granted in PARAGRAPH 40 of
this Instrument shall not cure any Event of Default or reinstate any Secured
Obligation for purposes of Section 2924c of the California Civil Code.
Beneficiary shall be entitled to collect all costs and expenses incurred in
pursuing such remedies.

27.      RELEASE. Trustor acknowledges that this Instrument and the other
Security Documents secure, or will secure, the payment, performance and/or
observation of and/or compliance with the Secured Obligations. Trustor agrees
that the lien of this Instrument shall be absolute and unconditional and shall
not in any manner be affected or impaired by any acts or omissions whatsoever of
Beneficiary and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the lien
hereof shall not be impaired by any acceptance by Beneficiary or any Lender of
any security for or guarantors of payment, performance and/or observation of
and/or compliance with the Secured Obligations, or by any failure, neglect or
omission on the part of Beneficiary or any Lender to realize upon or protect any
of the Secured Obligations or any of the collateral security therefor. The lien
hereof shall not in any manner be impaired or affected by any release (except as
to the property released), sale, pledge, surrender, compromise, settlement,
renewal, extension, indulgence, alteration, changing, modification or any
disposition of any of the Secured Obligations or any of the collateral security
therefor or of any guarantee thereof. Beneficiary may, at its discretion,
foreclose, exercise any power of sale, or exercise any other remedy available to
it under any or all of the other Security Documents without first exercising or
enforcing any of its rights and remedies hereunder, or may foreclose, exercise
any power of sale, or exercise any other right available under this

                                       14
<PAGE>

Instrument without first exercising or enforcing any of its rights or remedies
under any or all of the other Security Documents. Such exercise of Beneficiary's
rights and remedies under any or all of the other Security Documents shall not
in any manner impair the duty to pay or discharge the Secured Obligations or
otherwise impair the lien of this Instrument, and any exercise of the rights or
remedies pursuant to this Instrument shall not impair the lien of any of the
other Security Documents or any of Beneficiary's rights and remedies thereunder.
Trustor specifically consents and agrees that Beneficiary may exercise its
rights and remedies hereunder and under the Security Documents separately or
concurrently and in any order that Beneficiary may deem appropriate.

28.      FUTURE ADVANCES. This Instrument is given to secure not only the
existing indebtedness secured hereby, but also such future advances as are made
under the relevant Security Documents, plus interest thereon, and any
disbursements made under the relevant Security Documents for the payment of
taxes, insurance or other liens on the Deed of Trust Property, with interest on
such disbursements, which advances shall be secured hereby to the same extent as
if such future advances were made on this date. The total amount of indebtedness
secured hereby may increase or decrease from time to time. The provisions of
this PARAGRAPH 28 shall not be construed to imply any obligation on any of the
Lenders to make any future advances, it being the intention of the parties that
any future advances shall be solely at the discretion and option of the Lenders
or as expressly required under the Loan Documents.

29.      ATTORNEYS' FEES. As used in this Instrument, "attorneys' fees" shall
include attorneys' fees, if any, which may be awarded by an appellate court and
attorneys' fees incurred in connection with any bankruptcy proceedings relating
to or otherwise involving Trustor or any other Loan Party or any of their
constituent entities.

30.      REPRESENTATIONS OF TRUSTOR. Trustor hereby represents and warrants to

Instrument, any other Security Document or the Deed of Trust Property) or
incident to the enforcement of the Secured Obligations or the exercise of any
right or remedy of Beneficiary hereunder or under any other Security Document;

                                       17
<PAGE>

         (f)      except for Permitted Encumbrances, not execute or deliver any
deed of trust, mortgage or pledge of any type covering all or any portion of the
Deed of Trust Property;

         (g) not change its name, identity, structure or employer identification

with all applicable laws.

32.      PERMITTED EXCEPTIONS. None of the Permitted Exceptions, individually or
in the aggregate, materially interferes with the benefits of the security

affects the value of the Deed of Trust Property, impairs the use or the
operation of the Deed of Trust Property or impairs Trustor's ability to pay its
obligations in a timely manner.

33.      CHANGES IN TAX, DEBT CREDIT AND DOCUMENTARY STAMP LAWS.

         (a)      If any law is enacted or adopted or amended after the date of
this Instrument which deducts the Secured Obligations from the value of the Deed

directly or indirectly, on the Secured Obligations or the Lenders' interest in
the Deed of Trust Property, Trustor will pay the tax, with interest and
penalties thereon, if any;

         (b)      Trustor will not claim or demand or be entitled to any credit
on account of the Secured Obligations for any part of the taxes or other charges
assessed against the Deed of Trust Property, or any part thereof, and no
deduction shall otherwise be made or claimed from the assessed value of the Deed
of Trust Property, or any part thereof, for real estate tax purposes by reason
of this Instrument or the Secured Obligations; and

         (c)      If at any time the United States of America, any State thereof
or any subdivision of any such State shall require revenue or other stamps to be
affixed to any of the Security Documents or impose any other tax or charge on
the same, Trustor will pay for the same, with all interest and penalties
thereon.

34.      INDEMNIFICATION.

         (a)      Trustor shall, at its sole cost and expense, protect, defend,
indemnify, release and hold harmless the Lenders from and against any and all
Losses imposed upon or incurred by or asserted against any Lenders and directly
or indirectly arising out of or in any way relating to any one or more of the
following: (i) any accident, injury to or death of persons or loss of or damage
to property occurring in, on or about the Property or any part thereof or on the
adjoining sidewalks, curbs, adjacent property or adjacent parking areas, streets
or ways; (ii) any use, nonuse or condition in, on or about the Property or any

or brokerage fee to anyone which may be payable in connection with the funding
of the Loans secured by this Instrument; provided that Trustor shall have no
obligation hereunder to any Lender with respect to Losses to the extent such
Losses are found by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent
jurisdiction to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful midconduct of
such Lender. The term "LOSSES" shall mean any and all claims, suits, liabilities
(including, without limitation, strict liabilities), actions, proceedings,
obligations, debts, damages, losses, costs, expenses, fines, penalties, charges,
fees, judgments, awards, amounts paid in settlement of whatever kind or nature
(including but not limited to legal fees and other costs of defense).

<PAGE>

         (b)      All costs, expenses and fees as may be incurred in the
protection of the Deed of Trust Property and the maintenance of the lien of this
Instrument, including the reasonable fees, and actual costs and expenses of any
attorneys employed by Beneficiary in any litigation or proceeding affecting this
Instrument or any other Security Document or the Deed of Trust Property,
including probate, appellate and bankruptcy proceedings, or in preparation for
the commencement or defense of any action or proceeding or threatened action or
proceeding, shall be immediately due and payable to Beneficiary, with interest
thereon at a rate per annum equal to the rate per annum payable on past due Base
Rate Loans under the Credit Agreement, and shall be secured by this Instrument.
The failure to join any tenant or tenants of the Property as party defendant or
defendants in any such civil action or the failure of any such order or judgment
to foreclose their rights shall not be asserted by Trustor as a defense in any
civil action instituted to collect the Secured Obligations, or any part thereof,
or any deficiency remaining unpaid after foreclosure and/or sale of the Deed of
Trust Property, any statute or rule of law at any time existing to the contrary
notwithstanding.

         TRUSTOR AGREES TO PAY ALL REASONABLE OUT-OF-POCKET COSTS AND EXPENSES,
INCLUDING REASONABLE ATTORNEY COSTS, INCURRED BY BENEFICIARY IN CONNECTION WITH
(I) THE PREPARATION, EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF THIS INSTRUMENT AND THE OTHER
SECURITY DOCUMENTS AND ANY AMENDMENTS AND WAIVERS HEREOF OR THEREOF, (II) THE
FILING OF FINANCING STATEMENTS, (III) THE RECORDING OF THIS INSTRUMENT AND (IV)
THE DEFENSE OF ANY SECURITY INTEREST GRANTED TO BENEFICIARY BY TRUSTOR. TRUSTOR
ALSO AGREES TO PAY ALL OUT-OF-POCKET COSTS AND EXPENSES, INCLUDING REASONABLE
ATTORNEY'S FEES, INCURRED BY BENEFICIARY IN CONNECTION WITH THE ENFORCEMENT OF
THIS INSTRUMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER SECURITY DOCUMENTS AND THE COLLECTION OF ANY
AMOUNTS OWING HEREUNDER OR THEREUNDER. IN ADDITION, TRUSTOR WILL INDEMNIFY
BENEFICIARY AND LENDERS AGAINST, AND ON DEMAND REIMBURSE BENEFICIARY AND LENDERS
FOR, ANY AND ALL LIABILITIES, OBLIGATIONS, LOSSES, DAMAGES, PENALTIES, ACTIONS,
JUDGMENTS, COSTS, EXPENSES OR DISBURSEMENTS OF ANY KIND OR NATURE WHATSOEVER
WHICH MAY AT ANY TIME BE IMPOSED ON, INCURRED BY OR ASSERTED AGAINST BENEFICIARY
OR ANY LENDER IN ANY WAY RELATING TO OR ARISING OUT OF THIS INSTRUMENT OR ANY
OTHER SECURITY DOCUMENT; PROVIDED THAT TRUSTOR SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY OF
THE FOREGOING TO THE EXTENT THEY ARISE FROM THE GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL
MISCONDUCT OF BENEFICIARY OR ANY LENDER. NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING IN THIS
INSTRUMENT TO THE CONTRARY, THE PROVISIONS OF THIS PARAGRAPH SHALL SURVIVE THE
RECONVEYANCE OF THE PROPERTY AND THE SURRENDER OF THIS INSTRUMENT.

35.      WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL.

         TRUSTOR HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TRUSTOR
MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING BASED HEREON, OR
ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONJUNCTION WITH THIS INSTRUMENT OR ANY OTHER
SECURITY DOCUMENT AND FOR ANY COUNTERCLAIM THEREIN.

36.      TRANSFER OF LIEN. Beneficiary may, at any time, transfer or assign this
Instrument and any other Security Document held by it as permitted pursuant to
the provisions of the Credit Agreement. Beneficiary may forward to each
permitted purchaser, transferee, or assignee all documents and information which
Beneficiary now has or may hereafter acquire relating to the transactions
contemplated by the Credit Agreement and to Trustor and/or the Deed of Trust
Property, whether furnished by Trustor or otherwise, as Beneficiary determines
necessary or desirable. Trustor shall furnish and Trustor consents to
Beneficiary furnishing to such purchaser, transferee or assignee any and all
information concerning the

                                       19
<PAGE>

Deed of Trust Property and the Leases, as may be requested by Beneficiary,
purchaser, transferee or assignee in connection with any sale or transfer.

37.      RECONVEYANCE. Upon (i) payment in full of the Secured Obligations and
(ii) the performance and observance of all of the terms, covenants and
conditions to be performed or observed by Trustor and each of the other Loan
Parties, as applicable, under the Security Documents, Beneficiary shall request
the Trustee to reconvey the Property and shall surrender this Instrument to
Trustee. Trustee shall reconvey the Property without warranty to the person or
persons legally entitled thereto. Such person or persons shall pay Trustee's
reasonable costs incurred in so reconveying the Property.

38.      SUBSTITUTE TRUSTEE. Beneficiary, at Beneficiary's option, may from time
to time, by an instrument in writing, appoint a successor trustee to any trustee
appointed hereunder, which instrument, when executed and acknowledged by
Beneficiary and recorded in the office of the recorder of the county or counties
where the Property is situated, shall be conclusive proof of proper substitution
of such successor trustee. The successor trustee shall, without conveyance of
the Property, succeed to all the title, powers and duties conferred upon Trustee
herein and by applicable law. Said instrument shall contain the name of the
original Beneficiary, Trustee and Trustor hereunder, the book and page where
this Instrument is recorded, and the name and address of the successor trustee.
If notice of default has been recorded, this power of substitution cannot be
exercised until after the costs, fees and expenses of the then acting trustee
have been paid to such trustee who shall endorse receipt thereof upon such
instrument of substitution. The procedure herein provided for substitution of
trustee shall govern to the exclusion of all other provisions for substitution,
statutory or otherwise.

39.      STATEMENT OF OBLIGATION. Beneficiary may collect a fee not to exceed
the maximum allowed by applicable law for furnishing the statement of obligation
as provided in Section 2943 of the Civil Code of California.

40.      EXERCISE OF TRUSTEE'S POWER OF SALE.

         (a)      Should Beneficiary pursuant to its rights under PARAGRAPH 26
above elect to have Trustee exercise the power of sale herein contained,
Beneficiary shall deliver to Trustee a written declaration of default and demand
for sale, and shall deposit with Trustee this Instrument. Upon receipt of same
from Beneficiary, Trustee shall cause to be recorded, published and/or delivered
to Trustor such notice of default and election to sell as may then be required
by law and by this Instrument.

         (b)      After giving notice of default and notice of sale, and the
lapse of such time period as may be required by law, Trustee may, without demand
on Trustor, at the time and place of sale fixed in the notice of sale, either as
a whole or in separate parcels or items or through a single sale or through two
or more concurrent or successive sales, sell the Property or any part thereof at
public auction to the highest bidder for cash in lawful money of the United
States payable at the time of sale; provided, however, that Beneficiary may
credit all or any part of the indebtedness secured hereby (including Trustee's
fees, title guaranty fees, recording fees, attorneys' fees, and other costs
incurred by Beneficiary or Trustee in connection with the sale) against any bid
that Lenders may elect to make at the sale. If Beneficiary provides Trustee
prior to the sale with any written disclosure statement concerning the Property
that Beneficiary determines in its sole discretion should be made available to
bidders, Trustee shall deliver a copy of such disclosure statement to each
bidder and allow time for the statement to be read before the commencement of
bidding. Trustor shall not have any right to direct the order in which the
Property is sold. Beneficiary may, in its sole discretion, designate the order
in which the Property shall be offered for sale or sold and determine if the
Property shall be sold in a single sale or in two or more concurrent or
successive sales or in any other manner Beneficiary deems to be in the best
interests of Lenders. If Beneficiary determines that the Property shall be sold
in two or more sales, Beneficiary may, at its option,

                                       20
<PAGE>

cause such sales to be conducted concurrently or successively on the same day or
on different days and times and in such order as Beneficiary shall determine,
and no such sale shall extinguish or otherwise affect the lien of this
Instrument on any part of the Property not then sold until all Secured
Obligations have been fully paid. Trustor shall pay the costs and expenses of
each such sale and any judicial proceeding in which any such sale may be made.
Trustee shall deliver to such purchaser its deed conveying the portion of 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 Beneficiary and any Lender, may
purchase at such sale.

         (c)      After deducting all costs, fees and expenses of Trustee and of
the sale, including costs of evidence of title in connection with the sale,
Trustee shall apply the proceeds of sale first to payment of all sums expended
under the terms hereof and not then repaid, with accrued interest at a rate per
annum equal to the rate per annum payable on past due Base Rate Loans under the
Credit Agreement, second to all other sums then secured hereby, and the
remainder, if any, to the person or persons legally entitled thereto; provided,
however, that if the indebtedness secured hereby includes damages recoverable by
any Lender by reason of Borrower's breach of any "environmental provision" as
defined in California Code of Civil Procedure Section 736, then the proceeds of
sale shall not be applied to pay such damages until all other indebtedness
secured hereby has been paid in full. Trustor's liability for breach of any
environmental provision shall not be discharged by virtue of any full credit bid
by any Lender. Beneficiary's rights and remedies for benefit of Lenders as
secured lenders under California Code of Civil Procedure Section 736 shall
survive the sale, foreclosure, deed in lieu of foreclosure, release,
reconveyance or any other transfer of the Property or this Instrument.

         (d)      Trustee may postpone the sale of all or any portion of the
Property by public announcement at the time and place first fixed for sale, and
from time to time thereafter may postpone such sale by public announcement at
the time and place fixed by the preceding postponement, 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.

         (e)      Upon any sale pursuant to this PARAGRAPH 40, Trustor shall be
completely and irrevocably divested, to the maximum extent permitted by law, of
all its right, title, interest, claims and demands at law or in equity in and to
the Property sold or any part thereof, and such sale shall be a perpetual bar
both at law and in equity against Trustor and any and all other Persons claiming
any such right, title, interest, claims or demands by, through or under Trustor.

41.      ACTION FOR BREACH OF ENVIRONMENTAL PROVISIONS.

         (a)      Each representation, warranty, covenant or indemnity made by
Trustor in the Credit Agreement or any of the other Security Documents relating
to the environmental condition of the Property is intended by Trustor and
Beneficiary to be an "environmental provision" for purposes of California Code
of Civil Procedure Section 736. For the purposes of any action brought under
this PARAGRAPH 41, Trustor hereby waives the defense of laches. All rights and
remedies of Beneficiary hereunder are cumulative and in addition to all rights
and remedies provided by law.

         (b)      After an Event of Default, Beneficiary or its agents may,
without releasing Trustor from any portion of the Secured Obligations, acting
through a court appointed receiver, enter upon the Property or any part thereof
and perform such acts as permitted pursuant to the Credit Agreement or any of
the of the other Security Documents to inspect, investigate, assess and protect
the security hereof, including without limitation of any of its other rights:
(i) to obtain a court order to enforce Beneficiary's right to enter and inspect
the Property under California Civil Code Section 2929.5, to which the decision
of Beneficiary as to whether there exists a release or threatened release of
Hazardous Materials onto the

                                       21
<PAGE>

Property shall be deemed reasonable and conclusive as between the parties
hereto; and (ii) to have a receiver appointed under California Code of Civil
Procedure Section 564 to enforce Beneficiary's right to enter and inspect the
Property for Hazardous Materials. All costs and expenses incurred by Beneficiary
with respect to the audits, tests, inspections and examinations which
Beneficiary or its agents or employees are permitted to conduct pursuant to this
Instrument, the Credit Agreement or any of the of the other Security Documents,
including the fees of the engineers, laboratories, contractors, consultants and
attorneys, shall be paid by Trustor, within ten (10) days of demand therefor.

         (c)      Beneficiary reserves its right to waive its lien against the
Property or any portion thereof, whether fixtures or personal property, to the
extent such Property is found to be environmentally impaired in accordance with
California Code of Civil Procedure Section 726.5 and upon an Event of Default or
during an Actionable Default Period to exercise any and all rights and remedies
of an unsecured creditor against Trustor and all of Trustor's assets and
property for the recovery of any deficiency and all costs and expenses incurred
by the Trustee and Beneficiary pursuant to this PARAGRAPH 41, including, but not
limited to, seeking an attachment order under California Code of Civil Procedure
Section 483.010. Trustor acknowledges that delivery to Trustor by Beneficiary of
an execution copy of this Instrument constitutes a "written request for
information" by Beneficiary pursuant to California Code of Civil Procedure
Section 726.5(d)(2) solely for purposes of satisfying the requirements of
California Code of Civil Procedures Section 726.5(d)(2) and not for purposes of
creating any obligation under the Security Documents.

42.      DUTY TO DEFEND; LEGAL FEES AND OTHER FEES AND EXPENSES. Upon written
request by any Lender, Trustor shall defend such Lender (if requested by any
Lender, in the name of the Lender) by attorneys and other professional approved
by the Lenders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Lenders may, in their sole
discretion, engage their own attorneys and other professionals to defend or
assist them and, at the option of the Lenders, their attorneys shall control the
resolution of any claim or proceeding. Upon demand, Trustor shall pay, or in the
sole discretion of the Lenders, reimburse the Lenders for the payment of
reasonable fees and disbursements of attorneys, engineers, environmental
consultants, laboratories and other professionals in connection therewith.

43.      MORTGAGE AND/OR INTANGIBLE TAX. Trustor shall, at its sole cost and
expense, protect, defend, indemnify, release and hold harmless the Lenders from
and against any and all Losses imposed upon or incurred by or asserted against
any of the Lenders and directly or indirectly arising out of or in any way
relating to any tax on the making and/or recording of any of the Security
Documents.

44.      APPLICATION OF PAYMENTS. This Instrument secures only a portion of the
indebtedness owing or which may become owing by Trustor to Beneficiary. The
parties agree that any payments or repayments of such indebtedness by Trustor
shall be deemed to apply first to the portion of the indebtedness that is not
secured hereby, it being the parties' intent that the portion of the
indebtedness last remaining unpaid shall be deemed secured hereby.

45.      COUNTERPARTS; DUPLICATE ORIGINALS. This Instrument may be executed in
any number of original counterparts, all of which evidence not only one
agreement and only one of which need be produced for any purpose. This
Instrument may be executed in any number of duplicate originals and each
duplicate original shall be deemed to be an original.
