                                   ARTICLE ONE

condition free from any waste or misuse, and shall promptly repair or restore

<PAGE>

Mortgagee it will not expand any improvements on the Premises, erect any new
improvements or make any material alterations in any improvements which shall
alter the basic structure, affect the market value or change the existing
architectural character of the Premises, nor remove or demolish any improvements
and shall complete within a reasonable time any buildings now or at any time in
the process of erection on the Premises.

      1.3   COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS. Mortgagor shall comply with all requirements
of law, municipal ordinances and regulations affecting the Premises, shall
comply with all private restrictions and covenants affecting the Premises and
shall not acquiesce in or seek any rezoning classification affecting the
property.

      1.4   PAYMENT OF OPERATING COSTS: PRIOR MORTGAGES AND LIENS. Mortgagor
shall pay all operating costs and expenses of the Premises, shall keep the
Premises free from levy, attachment, mechanic's, materialmen's and other liens
("Liens") and shall pay when due all indebtedness which may be secured by
mortgage, lien or charge on the Premises.

      1.5.  PAYMENT OF IMPOSITIONS. Mortgagor shall pay when due and in any
event before any penalty attaches all taxes, assessments, governmental charges,
water charges, sewer charges, and other fees, taxes, charges and assessments of
every kind and nature whatsoever assessed or charged against or constituting a
Lien on the Premises or any interest therein ("Impositions") and will upon
demand furnish to the Mortgagee proof of the payment of any such Impositions. In
the event of a court decree or an enactment after the date hereof by any
legislative authority of any law imposing upon a mortgagee the payment of the
whole or any part of the Impositions herein required to be paid by the
Mortgagor, or changing in any way the laws relating to the taxation of mortgages
or debts secured by mortgages or a mortgagee's interest in mortgaged premises,
so as to impose such Imposition on the Mortgagee or on the interest of the
Mortgagee in the Premises then, in any such event, Mortgagor shall bear and pay
the full amount of such Imposition, provided that if for any reason payment by
Mortgagor of any such Imposition would be unlawful, or if the payment thereof
would constitute usury or render the Indebtedness Secured Hereby wholly or
partially usurious, Mortgagee, at its option, may declare the whole sum secured
by this Mortgage with interest thereon to be immediately due and payable,
without prepayment premium, or Mortgagee, at its option, may pay that amount or
portion of such Impositions as renders the Indebtedness Secured Hereby unlawful

remaining lawful and non-usurious portion or balance of said imposition.

      1.6   CONTEST OF IMPOSITIONS, LIENS AND LEVIES. Mortgagor shall not be
required to pay, discharge or remove any Impositions, so long as the Mortgagor
shall in good faith contest the same or the validity thereof by appropriate
legal proceedings which shall operate to prevent the collection of the
Imposition so contested and the sale of the Premises, or any part thereof to
satisfy the same, provided that the Mortgagor shall, prior to the date such
Imposition is due and payable, have given such reasonable security as may be
demanded by the Mortgagee to insure such payments and prevent any sale or
forfeiture of the Premises by reason of such nonpayment. Any such contest shall
be prosecuted with due diligence and the Mortgagor shall promptly after final
determination thereof pay the amount of any such Imposition so determined,
together with all interest and penalties that may be payable in connection
therewith.

                                        4
<PAGE>

Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section, Mortgagor shall (and if
Mortgagor shall fail to do so, Mortgagee may, but shall not be required to) pay
any such Imposition notwithstanding such contest if in the reasonable opinion of
the Mortgagee, the Premises shall be in jeopardy or in danger of being forfeited
or foreclosed.

      1.7   PROTECTION OF SECURITY. Mortgagor agrees to promptly notify
Mortgagee of and appear in and defend any suit, action or proceeding that
affects the value of the Premises, the Indebtedness Secured Hereby or the rights
or interest of Mortgagee hereunder. The Mortgagee may elect to appear in or
defend any such action or proceeding and Mortgagor agrees to indemnify and
reimburse Mortgagee from any and all loss, damage, expense or cost arising out
of or incurred in connection with any such suit, action or proceeding, including
costs of evidence of title and reasonable attorneys' fees and costs.

      1.8   ANNUAL STATEMENTS. Mortgagor shall within ninety (90) days after the
end of each fiscal year furnish to the Mortgagee audited financial and operating
statements of the Mortgagor for such fiscal year, including a balance sheet and
a profit and loss statement, all in reasonable detail and conforming to
generally accepted accounting principles. Mortgagor shall also within thirty
(30) days after the end of each month year furnish to the Mortgagee the interim
financial statements of the Mortgagor. All such financial statements shall be
prepared and certified by the Mortgagor to the satisfaction of the Mortgagee at
the expense of Mortgagor. In the event Mortgagor fails to furnish any such
financial statements, the Mortgagee may cause an audit to be made of the
respective books and records at the sole cost and expense of the Mortgagor (and
Mortgagee may add the expenses of such audit to the Loan) or otherwise declare
an Event of Default hereunder. Mortgagee also shall have the right to examine at
their place of safekeeping at reasonable times all books, accounts and records
relating to the business operations of the Mortgagor and the operation of the
Premises.

      1.9   ADDITIONAL ASSURANCES. Mortgagor agrees upon reasonable request by
the Mortgagee to execute and deliver such further instruments, financing
statements under the Uniform Commercial Code and assurances and will do such
further acts as may be necessary or proper to carry out more effectively the
purposes of this Mortgage and without limiting the foregoing, to make subject to
the lien hereof any property agreed to be subjected hereto or covered by the
granting clause hereof, or intended so to be. Mortgagor agrees to pay any

                              INSURANCE AND ESCROWS

      2.1   INSURANCE. Mortgagor shall obtain, pay for and keep in full force
and effect during the term of this Mortgage at Mortgagor's sole cost and
expense, the following policies of insurance:

            (a)   Insurance against loss of fire, lightning and risk customarily
                  covered by standard extended coverage endorsement, including
                  the cost of debris removal, together with a vandalism and
                  malicious mischief endorsement, all in the amounts of not less
                  than the full replacement cost of the improvements on the
                  Premises;

            (b)   Broad Form Boiler and Machinery insurance on all pressure
                  fired vehicles or apparatus situate on the Premises with full
                  repair and replacement cost coverage;

            (c)   Flood insurance in the maximum obtainable amount but not to
                  exceed the replacement cost of the improvements on the
                  Premises unless evidence is provided that the Premises are not
                  within a flood plain as defined by the Federal Insurance
                  Administration;

            (d)   Rents Loss or Business Interruption Insurance covering risk or
                  loss due to the occurrence of any hazards insured against
                  under the required fire and extended coverage insurance in an
                  amount equal to 12 months loss of income;

            (e)   Commercial general public liability insurance covering the
                  legal liability of the Mortgagor against claims for bodily
                  injury, death or property damage occurring on, in or about the
                  Premises in such minimal amount and with such minimal limits
                  as the Mortgagee may reasonably require;

            (f)   While any building is in the process of construction on the
                  Premises a hazard insurance policy written on the so called
                  "builders risk completed value form," all risk non-reporting
                  form of policy for the full replacement cost of the building
                  and such worker's compensation insurance as is required by
                  statute.

                                        8
<PAGE>

      Such insurance policies shall be written on forms and with insurance
companies satisfactory to Mortgagee, shall be in the amounts sufficient to
prevent the Mortgagor from becoming a co-insurer of any loss thereunder, and
shall bear a satisfactory mortgagee clause in favor of the Mortgagee with loss
proceeds under any such policies to be made payable to the Mortgagee. All
required policies of insurance or acceptable certificates thereof together with
evidence of the payment of current premiums therefor shall be delivered to and
be held by the Mortgagee. Mortgagor shall deliver to Mortgagee certificates of
insurance or copies of policies satisfactory to Mortgagee evidencing the
insurance that is required under this Section, and Mortgagor shall promptly
furnish to Mortgagee all renewal notices and all receipts of paid premiums
received by Mortgagor. At least thirty (30) days prior to the expiration date of
a required policy, Mortgagor shall deliver to Mortgagee a renewal policy or
certificate of insurance in form satisfactory to Mortgagee. The Mortgagor shall,
within thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of any such policy, deliver
other original policies or certificates of the insurer evidencing the renewal of
such insurance together with evidence of the payment of current premiums
therefor. In the event of a foreclosure of this Mortgage or any acquisition of
the Premises by the Mortgagee, all such policies and any proceeds payable
therefrom, whether payable before or after a foreclosure sale, or during the
period of redemption, if any, shall become the absolute property of the
Mortgagee to be utilized at its discretion. In the event of foreclosure or the
failure to obtain and keep any required insurance, the Mortgagor empowers the
Mortgagee to effect insurance upon the Premises at Mortgagor's expense and for
the benefit of the Mortgagee in the amounts and types set forth above for a
period of time covering the time of redemption from foreclosure sale, and if
necessary, to cancel any or all existing insurance policies. At least once every
three (3) years while any sums remain outstanding under the Note, Mortgagor
agrees to cause its insurance coverage to be reappraised and furnish Mortgagee
copies of the reappraisal reports and insurance recommendations.

      2.2   ESCROWS. Mortgagor shall deposit with the Mortgagee, or at
Mortgagee's request, with a servicing agent, on same day as payments are due
under the Note each and every month hereafter as a deposit to pay the costs of
taxes, assessments and insurance premiums next due ("Charges"):

            (a)   Initially a sum such that the amounts to be deposited pursuant
                  to paragraph 2.2 (b) shall equal the estimated Charges; and

            (b)   Thereafter an amount equal to one-twelfth (1/12th) of the
                  estimated annual Charges due on the Premises.

Mortgagee will, upon the presentation to the Mortgagee by the Mortgagor of the
bills therefor, pay the Charges from such deposits or will upon presentation of
receipted bills therefor, reimburse the Mortgagor for such payments made by the
Mortgagor. In the event the deposits on hand shall not be sufficient to pay all
of the estimated Charges when the same shall become due from time to time, or
the prior deposits shall be less than the currently estimated monthly amounts,
then the Mortgagor shall pay to the Mortgagee on demand any amount necessary to
make up the deficiency. The excess of any such deposits shall be credited to
subsequent payments to be made for such items. If a default or an event of
default shall occur under the terms of this Mortgage, the Mortgagee may, at its
option, without being required so to do, apply any deposits on hand to the
Indebtedness Secured Hereby, in such order and manner as the Mortgagee may
elect. When the Indebtedness Secured Hereby has been fully paid, any remaining
deposits, shall be returned to the Mortgagor as its

                                        9
<PAGE>

interest may appear. All deposits are hereby pledged as additional security for
the Indebtedness Secured Hereby, shall be held for the purposes for which they
were made as herein provided, may be held by Mortgagee or its servicing agent
and may be commingled with other funds of the Mortgagee, or its servicing agent,
shall be held without any allowance of interest thereon and shall not be subject
to the decision or control of the Mortgagor. Neither Mortgagee nor its servicing
agent shall be liable for any act or omission made or taken in good faith. In
making any payments, Mortgagee or its servicing agent may rely on any statement,
bill or estimate procured from or issued by the payee without inquiry into the
validity or accuracy of the same. If the taxes shown in the tax statement shall
be levied on property more extensive than the Premises, then the amounts
escrowed shall be based on the entire tax bill and Mortgagor shall have no right
to require an apportionment and Mortgagee or its servicing agent may pay the
entire tax bill notwithstanding that such taxes pertain in part to other
property and the Mortgagee shall be under no duty to seek a tax division or
apportionment of the tax bill.

                                  ARTICLE THREE
                   UNIFORM COMMERCIAL CODE SECURITY AGREEMENT

      3.1   SECURITY AGREEMENT. This Mortgage shall constitute a security
agreement as defined in the Uniform Commercial Code ("Code"). Any equipment or
fixtures installed in or used in the Premises are to be used by the Mortgagor
solely for the Mortgagor's business purposes or as the equipment and fixtures
leased or furnished by the Mortgagor, as landlord, to tenants of the Premises
and such equipment or fixtures will be kept at the buildings on the Premises and
will not be removed therefrom without the consent of the Mortgagee and may be
affixed to such buildings but will not be affixed to any other real estate. The
remedies of the Mortgagee hereunder are cumulative and separate, and the
exercise of any one or more of the remedies provided for herein or under the
Uniform Commercial Code shall not be constructed as a waiver of any of the other
rights of the Mortgagee including having any non-realty items of the Premises
deemed part of the realty upon any foreclosure thereof. If notice to any party
of the intended disposition of the Premises is required by law in a particular
instance, such notice shall be deemed commercially reasonable if given at least
ten (10) days prior to such intended disposition and may be given by
advertisement in a newspaper accepted for legal publications either separately
or as part of a notice given to foreclose the real property or may be given by
private notice if such parties are known to Mortgagee. Neither the grant of a
security interest pursuant to this Mortgage nor the filing of a financing
statement pursuant to the Code shall ever impair the stated intention of this
Mortgage that all personal property, rents, leases and profits and judgments and
awards comprising and at all times and for all purposes and in all proceedings
both legal or equitable shall be regarded as part of the real property mortgaged
hereunder irrespective of whether such item is physically attached to the real
property or any such item is referred to or reflected in a financing statement.
Mortgagor will on demand deliver any financing statements that may from time to
time be required by Mortgagee to establish and perfect the priority of
Mortgagee's security interest in the Premises and shall pay all expenses
incurred by Mortgagee in connection with the renewal or extensions of any
financing statements executed in connection with the Premises; and shall give
advance written notice of any proposed change in Mortgagor's name, identity or
structure and will execute and deliver to Mortgagee prior to or concurrently
with such change all additional financing statements that Mortgagee may require
to establish and perfect the priority of Mortgagee's security interest.

      3.2   MAINTENANCE OF PROPERTY. Subject to the provisions of this section,
in any instance where Mortgagor in its sound discretion determines that any item
subject to a security interest under this Mortgage has become inadequate,
obsolete, worn out, unsuitable, undesirable or unnecessary for the operation of
the Premises, Mortgagor may, at its expense, remove and dispose of it and
substitute and install other items not necessarily having the same function,
provided that such removal and substitution shall not impair the operating
utility and unity of the Premises. All substituted items shall become a part of
the Premises and subject to the lien of the Mortgage. Any amounts received or
allowed Mortgagor upon the sale or other disposition of the removed items of
property shall be applied first against the cost of acquisition and installation
of the substituted items. Nothing herein contained shall be construed to prevent
any tenant from removing from the Premises trade fixtures, furniture and
equipment installed by the tenant and removable by the tenant under the terms of
its lease, on the condition, however, that the tenant shall at its own cost and
expense, repair any and all damages to the Premises resulting from or caused by
the removal thereof.

      3.3   MORTGAGOR TO COMPLY WITH PRIOR SECURITY INSTRUMENTS. Mortgagor shall
at its sole cost and expense perform, comply with and discharge all obligations
of Mortgagor under any prior secured financing arrangements (whether lease
purchase, conditional sales or pure lease arrangements) for any property subject
to this security interest. Mortgagor shall not permit a surrender, assignment or
transfer of its interest in any such property without a prior written consent of
Mortgagee nor permit or suffer a default to exist under such prior financing
arrangements.

                                  ARTICLE FOUR
                       APPLICATION OF INSURANCE AND AWARDS

      4.1   DAMAGE OR DESTRUCTION OF THE PREMISES. Mortgagor shall give the
Mortgagee prompt notice of any damage to or destruction of the Premises and in
case of loss covered by policies of insurance, the Mortgagee (whether before or
after foreclosure sale) is hereby authorized at its option to settle and adjust
any claim arising out of such policies and collect and receive the proceeds
payable therefrom, provided, that the Mortgagor may itself adjust and collect
for any losses arising out of a single occurrence aggregating not in excess of
$50,000.00. Any expense incurred by the Mortgagee in the adjustment and
collection of insurance proceeds (including the cost of any independent
appraisal of the loss or damage on behalf of Mortgagee) shall be reimbursed to
the Mortgagee first out of any proceeds. The proceeds or any part thereof shall
be applied to reduction of the Indebtedness Secured Hereby then most remotely to
be paid, whether due or not, without the application of any prepayment premium,
or to the restoration or repair of the Premises, the choice of application to be
solely at the discretion of Mortgagee.

      4.2   CONDEMNATION. Mortgagor shall give the Mortgagee prompt notice of
any actual or threatened condemnation or eminent domain proceedings affecting
the Premises and hereby assigns, transfers, and sets over to the Mortgagee the
entire proceeds of any award or claim for

                                       12
<PAGE>

damages or settlement in lieu thereof for all or any part of the Premises taken
or damaged under such eminent domain or condemnation proceedings, the Mortgagee
being hereby authorized to intervene in any such action and to collect and
receive from the condemning authorities and give proper receipts and
acquittances for such proceeds. Mortgagor will not enter into any agreements
with the condemning authority permitting or consenting to the taking of the
Premises or agreeing to a settlement unless prior written consent of Mortgagee
is obtained. Any expenses incurred by the Mortgagee in intervening in such
action or collecting such proceeds, including reasonable attorney's fees, shall
be reimbursed to the Mortgagee first out of the proceeds. The proceeds or any
part thereof shall be applied upon or in reduction of the Indebtedness Secured
Hereby then most remotely to be paid, whether due or not, without the
application of any prepayment premium, or to the restoration or repair of the
Premises, the choice of application to be solely at the discretion of Mortgagee.

      4.3   DISBURSEMENT OF INSURANCE AND CONDEMNATION PROCEEDS. Any restoration
or repair shall be done under the supervision of an architect acceptable to
Mortgagee and pursuant to plans and specifications approved by the Mortgagee. In
such case where Mortgagee may elect to apply the proceeds to repair or
restoration or permit the Mortgagor to so apply the proceeds, then the proceeds
shall be held by Mortgagee for such purposes and will from time to time be
disbursed by Mortgagee to defray the costs of such restoration or repair under
such safeguards and controls as Mortgagee may establish to assure completion in
accordance with the approved plans and specifications and free of liens or
claims. Mortgagor shall on demand deposit with Mortgagee any sums necessary to
make up any deficits between the actual cost of the work and the proceeds and
provide such lien waivers and completion bonds as Mortgagee may reasonably
require. Any surplus which may remain after payment of all costs of restoration
or repair may at the option of the Mortgagee be applied on account of the
Indebtedness Secured Hereby then most remotely to be paid, whether due or not,
without application of any prepayment premium or shall be returned to Mortgagor
as Mortgagor's interest may appear, the choice of application to be solely at
the discretion of Mortgagee.

      4.4   RIGHT TO USE INSURANCE PROCEEDS. Notwithstanding the foregoing
provisions regarding the disposition of insurance proceeds, but only if
Mortgagor meets the following conditions, Mortgagee will not elect to apply all
of such proceeds to the Indebtedness Secured Hereby, but shall hold such
proceeds in an escrow account of Mortgagee, from which account the proceeds may
be withdrawn only by Mortgagee and shall be readvanced to Mortgagor for the
purpose of reconstructing or restoring the Mortgaged Property under the
following terms and conditions. Mortgagee shall make insurance proceeds
available to Mortgagor ONLY IF: (i) at the time of the occurrence of the event
for which proceeds are being received and at the time of the receipt of such
proceeds, there is no existing uncured Event of Default hereunder; and (ii) the
total proceeds to be received, together with such other sums as Mortgagor may
deposit with Mortgagee, shall be sufficient, in Mortgagee's opinion, to restore
the Mortgaged Property to its original condition. All such proceeds and sums
shall be held by Mortgagee in an interest-bearing deposit account under the sole
and exclusive control and dominion of Mortgagee, and Mortgagor shall have no
right to withdraw or otherwise direct the payment of any funds from such
account. If Mortgagor qualifies for the right to use such proceeds for the
reconstruction and restoration of the Mortgaged Property, then Mortgagee shall
advance such proceeds and sums to Mortgagor in the manner and upon such terms
and conditions as would be required by a prudent interim construction lender,

                                       13
<PAGE>

including, without limitation, Mortgagee's right to require such items as a
sworn construction statement, recordable lien waivers and appropriate title
insurance endorsements. Any excess proceeds and sums and interest thereon not
required to complete such restoration shall, at Mortgagee's option, be applied
first to payment of the Indebtedness Secured Hereby in such manner as Mortgagee
shall determine with any excess to be paid to Mortgagor.

                                  ARTICLE FIVE
                                LEASES AND RENTS

      5.1   MORTGAGOR TO COMPLY WITH LEASES. Mortgagor will, at its own cost and
expense, perform, comply with and discharge all of the obligations of Mortgagor
under any leases or agreements for the use of the Premises and use Mortgagor's
best efforts to enforce or secure the performance of each obligation and
undertaking of the respective tenants under any such leases and will appear in
and defend, at its own cost and expense, any action or proceeding arising out of
or in any manner connected with the Mortgagor's interest in any leases of the
Premises. Mortgagor shall permit no surrender or assignment of any tenant's
interest under said leases unless the right to assign or surrender is expressly
reserved under the lease, accept any installment of rent for more than one month
in advance of its due date, nor execute any mortgage or create or permit a lien
which may be or become superior to any such leases, nor permit a subordination
of any lease to such mortgage or lien. Mortgagor will not materially modify or
amend the terms of any such leases, or borrow against or pledge the rentals from
such leases or exercise or waive any default of the tenant thereunder without
the prior written consent of Mortgagee.

      5.2   MORTGAGEE'S RIGHT TO PERFORM UNDER LEASES. Should the Mortgagor fail
to perform, comply with or discharge any obligations of Mortgagor under any
lease or should the Mortgagee become aware of or be notified by any tenant under
any lease of a failure on the part of Mortgagor to so perform, comply with or
discharge its obligations under said lease, Mortgagee may, but shall not be
obligated to, without further demand upon the Mortgagor, and without waiving or
releasing Mortgagor from any obligation in this Mortgage contained, remedy such
failure, and the Mortgagor agrees to repay upon demand all sums incurred by the
Mortgagee in remedying any such failure together with interest at the rate
specified in the Note. All such sums, together with interest at the rate
described in the Note shall become so much additional Indebtedness Secured
Hereby, but no such advance shall be deemed to relieve the Mortgagor from any
default hereunder.

      5.3   LEASE APPROVAL. Each lease of the Premises to be entered into by
Mortgagor shall be approved by the Mortgagee and shall be satisfactory to the
Mortgagee in form and content. Each such lease at the election of the Mortgagee
will be either superior or subordinate to the lien of the Mortgage and each
tenant shall execute an appropriate subordination or attornment agreement as
required by the Mortgagee. Also, to the extent required by the Mortgagee, each
tenant shall execute an estoppel certificate and at Mortgagee's discretion,
acknowledge receipt of a notice of the assignment of its lease, all satisfactory
in form and content to the Mortgagee.

      5.4   ASSIGNMENT OF LEASES AND RENTS. The Mortgagor does hereby sell,
assign and transfer unto Mortgagee all of the leases, rents, income and profits
now due and which may hereafter become due under or by virtue of any lease,
whether written or verbal, or any agreement

                                       14
<PAGE>

for the use or occupancy of the Premises, it being the intention of this
Mortgage to establish an absolute transfer and assignment of all such leases and
agreements and all of the rents and profits from the Premises unto the Mortgagee
and the Mortgagor does hereby appoint irrevocably the Mortgagee its true and
lawful attorney in its name and stead, which appointment is coupled with an
interest, to collect all of said rents and profits; provided, Mortgagee grants
the Mortgagor the privilege, revocable, to collect and retain such rents,
income, and profits unless and until any Event of Default exists under this
Mortgage.

                                   ARTICLE SIX
                               RIGHTS OF MORTGAGEE

      6.1   RIGHT TO CURE DEFAULT. If the Mortgagor shall fail to comply with
any of the covenants or obligations of this Mortgage, the Mortgagee may, but
shall not be obligated to, without further notice to Mortgagor and without
waiving or releasing Mortgagor from any obligation in this Mortgage contained,
remedy such failure, and the Mortgagor agrees to repay upon demand all sums
incurred by the Mortgagee in remedying any such failure together with interest
at the then rate in effect on the Note. All such sums, together with interest at
the rate described in the Note shall become so much additional Indebtedness
Secured Hereby, but no such advance shall be deemed to relieve the Mortgagor
from any default hereunder.

      6.2   NO CLAIM AGAINST THE MORTGAGEE. Nothing contained in this Mortgage
shall constitute any consent or request by the Mortgagee, express or implied,
for the performance of any labor or services or for the furnishing of any
materials or other property in respect of the Premises or any part thereof, nor
as giving the Mortgagor or any party in interest with Mortgagor any right, power
or authority to contract for or permit the performance of any labor or services
or the furnishing of any materials or other property in such fashion as would
create any personal liability against the Mortgagee in respect thereof or would
permit the making of any claim that any lien based on the performance of such
labor or services or the furnishing of any such materials or other property is
prior to the lien of this Mortgage.

      6.3   INSPECTION. Mortgagor will permit the Mortgagee's authorized
representatives to enter the Premises at reasonable times for the purpose of
inspecting the same; provided the Mortgagee shall have no duty to make such
inspections and shall not incur any liability or obligation for making or not
making any such inspections.

      6.4   WAIVERS; RELEASES; RESORT TO OTHER SECURITY, ETC. Without affecting
the liability of any party liable for payment of any Indebtedness Secured Hereby
or performance of any obligation contained herein, and without affecting the
rights of the Mortgagee with respect to any security not expressly released in
writing, the Mortgagee may, at any time, and without notice to or the consent of
the Mortgagor or any party in interest with the Premises or the Note:

            (a)   release any person liable for payment of all or any part of
                  the Indebtedness Secured Hereby or for performance of any
                  obligation herein;

            (b)   make any agreement extending the time or otherwise altering
                  the terms of

                                       15
<PAGE>

                  payment of all or any part of the Indebtedness Secured Hereby
                  or modifying or waiving any obligation, or subordinating,
                  modifying or otherwise dealing with the lien or charge hereof;

            (c)   accept any additional security;

            (d)   release or otherwise deal with any property, real or personal,
                  including any or all of the Premises, including making partial
                  releases of the Premises; or

            (e)   resort to any security agreements, pledges, contracts of
                  guarantee, assignments of rents and leases or other
                  securities, and exhaust any one or more of said securities and
                  the security hereunder, either concurrently or independently
                  and in such order as it may determine.

      6.5   WAIVER OF APPRAISEMENT, HOMESTEAD, MARSHALING. The Mortgagor waives
to the full extent lawfully allowed the benefit of any homestead, appraisement,
evaluation, stay and extension laws now or hereinafter in force. Mortgagor
waives any rights available with respect to marshaling of assets so as to
require the separate sales of any portion of the Premises, or as to require the
Mortgagee to exhaust its remedies against a specific portion of the Premises
before proceeding against the other and does hereby expressly consent to and
authorize the sale of the Premises or any part thereof as a single unit or
parcel or as separate parcels.

      6.6   EVASION OF PREPAYMENT. If the Note contains a restrictions on any
prepayment of the Indebtedness Secured Hereby, if an Event of Default shall
occur and the Indebtedness Secured Hereby is accelerated a tender of such amount
necessary to satisfy the accelerated amount or a mortgage foreclosure sale under
this Mortgage shall be considered an evasion of the prepayment restrictions of
the Note and the Mortgagee may demand in addition to all other sums due it by
reason of an Event of Default the premium then due under the Note as if
Mortgagor had voluntarily prepaid the same (or if no prepayment be permitted
then with the premium applicable on the earliest date on which the Note may be
prepaid). The Mortgagor expressly waives the provisions of any present or future
statute, law or judicial interpretation or principle that prohibits or may
prohibit the collection of the foregoing premium in connection with any such
acceleration.

                                  ARTICLE SEVEN
                         EVENTS OF DEFAULT AND REMEDIES

      7.1   EVENTS OF DEFAULT. It shall be an event of default ("Event of
Default") under this Mortgage upon the happening of any of the following (after
any required notice and the expiration of any applicable opportunity to cure):

            (a)   failure to comply with any of the provisions of the Note
                  including without limitation the failure to make any payment

                  charge, when and as the same becomes due (whether at the
                  stated maturity or at a date fixed for any installment payment
                  or any accelerated payment date or otherwise) within five (5)
                  days of the date on which such performance is due; or

            (b)   failure to pay, perform or comply with when due any other

                  shall continue for a period of fifteen (15) days after notice
                  thereof to Mortgagor or such longer time as may be reasonably
                  necessary for Mortgagor to cure, while acting with due
                  diligence, provided in any event that such time shall be no
                  more than sixty (60) days; or

            (d)   the Mortgagor shall fail to pay Mortgagor's debts as they

                  creditors, or shall admit in writing Mortgagor's inability to

                  under any chapter of the United States Bankruptcy Code or any
                  similar law, state or federal, now or hereafter existing, or
                  shall become "insolvent" as that term is generally defined
                  under the United States Bankruptcy Code, or shall in any
                  involuntary bankruptcy case commenced against it file an

                  appointed for, or have any court take jurisdiction of its
                  property, or any part thereof, in any proceeding for the
                  purpose of reorganization, arrangement, dissolution or
                  liquidation, and such custodian, trustee or receiver shall not
                  be discharged, or such jurisdiction shall not be relinquished,
                  vacated or stayed within sixty (60) days of the appointment;
                  or

            (e)   an event of default shall occur under any other instrument
                  securing the Note and shall not have been cured within the
                  time permitted therein to cure; or

            (f)   a judgment, writ or warrant of attachment or execution, or
                  similar process shall be entered and become a lien or be
                  issued or levied against the Premises and shall not be
                  released or fully bonded within forty-five (45) days after its
                  entry, issue or levy; or

            (g)   any material representation or warranty made by Mortgagor
                  herein, in the Note, the Loan Agreement executed in
                  conjunction herewith, or in any other instrument given as
                  security for payment of the Indebtedness Secured Hereby or
                  executed in conjunction with the Note shall be false, breached
                  or dishonored; or

            (h)   the Mortgagor shall default under or shall fail to comply with
                  any of the terms, conditions or provisions of the Loan
                  Agreement executed in conjunction with this Mortgage.

      7.2   MORTGAGEE'S RIGHT TO ACCELERATE. If an Event of Default shall occur
the Mortgagee may declare the entire unpaid principal balance of the Note
together with all other Indebtedness Secured Hereby to be immediately due and
payable and thereupon all such unpaid principal balance of the Note together
with all accrued interest thereon at the rate of interest provided under the
Note and all other Indebtedness Secured Hereby shall be and become immediately
due and payable.

                                       17
<PAGE>

      7.3   RIGHT TO FORECLOSE. If an Event of Default shall occur the Mortgagee
may, either with or without entry or taking possession, proceed by suit or suits
at law or in equity or by any other appropriate proceedings or remedy to enforce
payment of the Indebtedness Secured Hereby or the performance of any other term
hereof or any other right and the Mortgagor hereby authorizes and fully empowers
the Mortgagee to foreclose this Mortgage by judicial proceedings or by
advertisement with power of sale and grants to the Mortgagee full authority to
sell the Premises at public auction and convey title to the Premises to the
purchaser, either in one parcel or separate lots and parcels, all in accordance
with and in the manner prescribed by law, and out of the proceeds arising from
sale and foreclosure to retain the principal and interest due on the Note and
the Indebtedness Secured Hereby together with all such sums of money as
Mortgagee shall have expended or advanced pursuant to this Mortgage or pursuant
to statute together with interest thereon at the rate of interest described in
the Note and all costs and expenses of such foreclosure, including lawful
attorneys' fees, with the balance, if any, to be paid to the persons entitled
thereto by law. In any such proceeding the Mortgagee may apply all or any
portion of the Indebtedness Secured Hereby to the amount of the purchase price.

      7.4   RECEIVER. If an Event of Default shall occur, the Mortgagee shall be
entitled as a matter of right without notice and without giving bond and without
regard to the solvency or insolvency of the Mortgagor, or waste of the Premises
or adequacy of the security of the Premises, to apply for the appointment of a
Receiver (a) under Minn. Stat. Section 576.01 or any successor or supplementary
statute thereto who shall have all the rights, powers and remedies as provided
by such statute and who shall apply the rents, issues and profits as provided by
statute and thereafter to all expenses for maintenance of the Premises and to
the costs and expenses of the receivership, including reasonable attorneys' fees
and to the repayment of the Indebtedness Secured Hereby or (b) pursuant to any
assignment of leases and rents described herein or otherwise executed by the
Mortgagor to the Mortgagee who shall in addition to the rights, powers and
remedies as provided by statute have such rights, powers and remedies as
provided in such assignment of leases and rents and who shall apply the rents,
issues and profits as provided therein.

      7.5   RIGHTS UNDER UNIFORM COMMERCIAL CODE. In addition to the rights
available to a mortgagee of real property Mortgagee shall also have all the
rights, remedies and recourse available to a secured party under the Uniform
Commercial Code including the right to proceed under the provisions of the
Uniform Commercial Code governing default as to any property which is subject to
the security interest created by the Mortgage or to proceed as to such personal
property in accordance with the procedures and remedies available pursuant to a
foreclosure of real estate.

      7.6   DUE ON SALE OR MORTGAGING, ETC. In the event of the sale,
conveyance, transfer, or further mortgaging, encumbrancing or disposition of the
Premises, or any part thereof, or any interest therein without the written
consent of Mortgagee being first obtained, whether voluntary, involuntary, or by
operation of law, then at the sole option of Mortgagee, the Mortgagee may
declare the entire Indebtedness Secured Hereby due and payable in full and call
for payment of the same in full at once, together with the prepayment premium,
if any, as provided for in the Note for a voluntary prepayment at that time (and
if at such time no prepayment privilege exists under the Note, then with the
prepayment premium provided for in the Note at the earliest date on which the
Indebtedness Secured Hereby could be prepaid).

                                       18
<PAGE>

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Mortgagor may make a transfer or conveyance of
Mortgagor's interest in the Premises, with the written consent of the Mortgagee.
Consent as to any one transaction shall not be deemed to be a waiver of the
right to require consent to future or successive transactions. For purposes of
this Paragraph 7.6, any change in the legal or equitable title of the Premises
or in the beneficial ownership of the Premises whether or not of record and
whether or not for consideration shall be deemed a transfer of an interest in
the Premises. As a condition to any consent, the Mortgagee may among other
things require an assumption of the Indebtedness Secured Hereby by the
transferee, an increase in the rate of interest on the Indebtedness Secured
Hereby, a change in the terms of payment, the payment of Mortgagee's
out-of-pocket costs incurred with respect to any consent and/or a "transfer
fee."

      7.7   RIGHTS CUMULATIVE. Each right, power or remedy herein conferred upon
the Mortgagee is cumulative and in addition to every other right, power or
remedy, express or implied, now or hereafter arising, available to Mortgagee, at
law or in equity, or under any other agreement, and each and every right, power
and remedy herein set forth or otherwise so existing may be exercised from time
to time as often and in such order as may be deemed expedient by the Mortgagee
and shall not be a waiver of the right to exercise at any time thereafter any
other right, power or remedy. No delay or omission by the Mortgagee in the
exercise of any right, power or remedy arising hereunder or arising otherwise
shall impair any such right, power or remedy or the right of the Mortgagee to
resort thereto at a later date or be construed to be a waiver of any default or
event of default under this Mortgage or the Note.

      7.8   RIGHT TO DISCONTINUE PROCEEDINGS. In the event Mortgagee shall have
proceeded to invoke any right, remedy or recourse permitted under this Mortgage
and shall thereafter elect to discontinue or abandon the same for any reason,
Mortgagee shall have the unqualified right to do so and in such event Mortgagor
and Mortgagee shall be restored to their former positions with respect to the
Indebtedness Secured Hereby, and this Mortgage, the Premises and all rights,
remedies and recourse of the Mortgagee shall continue as if the same had not
been invoked.

      7.9   ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF WAIVER OF HEARING BEFORE SALE. Mortgagor
understands and agrees that if any default is made under the terms of this
Mortgage, Mortgagee has the right, inter alia, to foreclose this Mortgage by
advertisement pursuant to Minnesota Statutes, Chapter 580, as hereafter amended,
or pursuant to any similar or replacement statute hereafter enacted; that if the
Mortgagee elects to foreclose by advertisement, it may cause the Premises, or
any part thereof, to be sold at public auction; that notice of such sale must be
published in a newspaper of general circulation for the period of time required
by law and that no personal notice is required to be served upon Mortgagor.
Mortgagor further understands that in the event of such default the Mortgagee
may also elect its rights under the Uniform Commercial Code and take possession
of any personal property and dispose of the same by sale or otherwise in one or
more parcels provided that at least ten (10) days' prior notice of such
disposition must be given, all as provided for by the Uniform Commercial Code,
as hereafter amended or by any similar or replacement statute hereafter enacted.
Mortgagor further understands that under the Constitution of the United States
and the Constitution of the State of Minnesota it may have the right to notice
and hearing before the Premises may be sold and that the procedure for
foreclosure by advertisement described above does not ensure that notice will be
given to the Mortgagor and neither said

                                       19
<PAGE>

procedure for foreclosure by advertisement nor the Uniform Commercial Code
requires any hearing or other judicial proceeding. MORTGAGOR HEREBY EXPRESSLY
CONSENTS AND AGREES THAT THE PREMISES MAY BE FORECLOSED BY ADVERTISEMENT AND
THAT THE PERSONAL PROPERTY MAY BE DISPOSED OF PURSUANT TO THE UNIFORM COMMERCIAL
CODE, ALL AS DESCRIBED ABOVE. MORTGAGOR ACKNOWLEDGES THAT MORTGAGOR EITHER HAS
BEEN REPRESENTED BY LEGAL COUNSEL OR HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE REPRESENTED BY
LEGAL COUNSEL; THAT BEFORE SIGNING THIS DOCUMENT THIS PARAGRAPH AND MORTGAGOR'S
CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS WERE FULLY EXPLAINED BY SUCH COUNSEL OR UNDERSTOOD BY
MORTGAGOR, WITHOUT THE ADVICE OF COUNSEL, AND THAT MORTGAGOR UNDERSTANDS THE
NATURE AND EXTENT OF THE RIGHTS WAIVED HEREBY AND THE EFFECT OF SUCH WAIVER.

      7.10  ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATES. Mortgagor agrees at any time and from time to
time, upon not less than fifteen (15) days prior notice by Mortgagee, to
execute, acknowledge and deliver, without charge, to Mortgagee or to any person
designated by Mortgagee, a statement in writing certifying that this Mortgage is
unmodified (or if there have been modifications, identifying the same by the
date thereof and specifying the nature thereof), the principal amount then
secured hereby, that Mortgagor has not received any notice of default or notice
acceleration or foreclosure of this Mortgage (or if Mortgagor has received such
a notice, that it has been revoked, if such be the case), that to the knowledge
of Mortgagor no Event of Default exists hereunder (or if any such Event of
Default does exist, specifying the same and stating that the same has been
cured, if such be the case), the Mortgagor to Mortgagor's knowledge has no
claims or offsets against Mortgagee (or if Mortgagor has any such claims,
specifying the same), and the dates to which the principal and interest and the
other sums and charges payable by Mortgagor pursuant to the Note and this
Mortgage have been paid. In the event Mortgagor fails to execute, acknowledge
and deliver such statement within the time above required, Mortgagor hereby
appoints and constitutes Mortgagee as Mortgagor's attorney-in-fact to do so
(which power of attorney is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable), and
Mortgagor shall be fully bound by any such statement executed by Mortgagee on
Mortgagor's behalf to the same extent as if Mortgagor had executed, acknowledged
and delivered the same.

the State of Minnesota and is intended to be governed by the laws of said State.

shall inure to the benefit of the Mortgagee and its successors and assigns. As

the heirs, representatives, administrators and executors of any natural person
who is or becomes a party to this Mortgage. In the event that the ownership of
the Premises becomes vested in a person or persons other than the Mortgagor, the
Mortgagee shall not have any obligation to deal with such successor or
successors in interest unless such transfer is permitted by this Mortgage and
then only upon being notified in writing of such change of ownership. Upon such
notification, the Mortgagee may thereafter deal with such successor in place of
Mortgagor without any obligation to thereafter deal with Mortgagor and without
waiving any liability of Mortgagor hereunder or under the Note. No change of
ownership shall in any way operate to release or discharge the liability of the
Mortgagor hereunder unless such release or discharge is expressly agreed to in
writing by the Mortgagee.

      8.4   UNENFORCEABILITY OF CERTAIN CLAUSES. The unenforceability or
invalidity of any provisions hereof shall not render any other provision or

                                    MORTGAGE

         THIS MORTGAGE is given on May 3, 2004. The borrower is WSI Industries,
Inc., a Minnesota corporation ("Borrower"). This Mortgage is given to the
Monticello Economic Development Authority, a public body corporate and politic
(the "Lender"). Borrower owes Lender the principal sum of $350,000.00. This debt
is evidenced by a promissory note dated as of even date herewith (the "Note").
This Mortgage secures to Lender: (a) the repayment of the debt evidenced by the
Note, and all renewals, extensions and modifications of the Note; (b) the
payment of all other sums, advanced to protect the security of this Mortgage;
(c) the performance of Borrower's covenants and agreements under this Mortgage
and the Note; and (d) is subject to the terms and conditions of that certain
Loan Agreement between Borrower and Lender and dated as of March 3, 2004. For
this purpose, Borrower does hereby mortgage, grant and convey to Lender, with
power of sale, the property located in Wright County, Minnesota and fully
described in the attached Exhibit A, together with all the improvements now or
hereafter erected on the property, and all easements, appurtenances, and
fixtures now or hereafter a part of the property. All replacements and additions
shall also be covered by this Mortgage. All of the foregoing is referred to in
this Mortgage as the "Property".

         BORROWER COVENANTS that Borrower is lawfully seized of the estate
hereby conveyed and has the right to mortgage, grant and convey the Property and
that the Property is unencumbered, except for encumbrances of record and as set
forth in paragraph 19. Borrower warrants and will defend generally the title to
the Property against all claims and demands, subject to any encumbrances of
record.

         Borrower and Lender agree as follows:

         1.       Payment of Principal and Interest; Late Charges. Borrower
shall promptly pay when due the principal on the debt evidenced by the Note and
any late charges due under the Note.

<PAGE>

         2.       Charges; Liens. Borrower shall pay all taxes, assessments,
charges, fines and impositions attributable to the Property which may attain
priority over this Mortgage, and leasehold payments or ground rents, if any.
Borrower shall pay these obligations on time directly to the person owed
payment.

         Borrower shall promptly discharge any lien which has priority over this
Mortgage unless Borrower: (a) agrees in writing to the payment of the obligation
secured by the lien in a manner reasonably acceptable to Lender; (b) contests in
good faith the lien by, or defends against enforcement of the lien in, legal
proceedings which in the Lender's opinion operate to prevent the enforcement of
the lien; or (c) secures from the holder of the lien an agreement satisfactory
to Lender subordinating the lien to this Mortgage. If Lender determines that any
part of the Property is subject to a lien which may attain priority over this
Mortgage, Lender may give Borrower a notice identifying the lien. Borrower shall
satisfy the lien or take one or more of the actions set forth above within
thirty (30) days of the giving of notice. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this
Mortgage is subordinate to the first mortgage in the original principal amount
of $1,360,000 given by Borrower to Excel Bank.

         3.       Hazard or Property Insurance. Borrower shall keep the
improvements now existing or hereafter erected on the Property insured against
loss by fire and any other hazards for which Lender requires insurance. This
insurance shall be maintained in the amounts and for the periods that Lender
reasonably requires. The insurance carrier providing the insurance shall be
chosen by Borrower subject to Lender's approval, which shall not be unreasonably
withheld or delayed. If Borrower fails to maintain coverage described above,
Lender may, at Lender's option, obtain coverage to protect Lender's rights in
the Property in accordance with paragraph 5.

         All insurance policies and renewals shall be reasonably acceptable to
Lender and shall include a standard mortgage clause. If Lender requires,
Borrower shall promptly give to Lender all receipts of paid premiums and renewal
notices. In the event of loss, Borrower shall give prompt notice to the
insurance carrier and Lender. Lender may make proof of loss if not made promptly
by Borrower.

         If under paragraph 15 the Property is acquired by Lender, Borrower's
right to any insurance policies and proceeds resulting from damage to the
Property prior to the acquisition shall pass to Lender to the extent of the sums
secured by this Mortgage immediately prior to the acquisition.

         4.       Protection of the Property. Borrower shall not destroy or
damage the Property or commit waste on the Property. Borrower shall be in
default if any forfeiture action or proceeding, whether civil or criminal, is
begun that in Lender's good faith judgment could result in forfeiture of the
Property or otherwise materially impair the lien created by this Mortgage or
Lender's security interest. Borrower may cure such a default and reinstate, as
provided in paragraph 13, by causing the action or proceeding to be dismissed
with a ruling that, in Lender's good faith determination, precludes forfeiture
of the Borrower's interest in the Property or other material impairment of the
lien created by this Mortgage or Lender's security

                                        2
<PAGE>

interest. Borrower shall also be in default if Borrower gave materially false or
inaccurate information or statements to Lender in connection with the loan
evidenced by the Note.

         5.       Protection of Lender's Rights in the Property. If Borrower
fails to perform the covenants and agreements contained in this Mortgage, or
there is a legal proceeding that may significantly affect Lender's rights in the
Property (such as a proceeding in bankruptcy, condemnation or forfeiture),
Lender may do and pay for whatever is necessary to protect the value of the
Property and Lender's rights in the Property. Lender's actions may include
paying any sums secured by a lien which has priority over this Mortgage,
appearing in court, paying reasonable attorneys fees and entering on the
Property to make repairs. Although Lender may take action under this paragraph
5, Lender is not required to do so.

         Any amounts disbursed by Lender under this paragraph 5 shall become
additional debt of Borrower secured by this Mortgage. Unless Borrower and Lender
agree to other terms of payment, these amounts shall bear interest from the date
of disbursement at a rate equal to the interest rate on the Note and shall be
payable, with interest, upon notice from Lender to Borrower requesting payment.

         6.       Inspection. Lender or its agent may make reasonable entries
upon and inspections of the Property.

         7.       Condemnation. The proceeds of any award or claim for damages,
direct or consequential, in connection with any condemnation or other taking of
any part of the Property, or for conveyance in lieu of condemnation, are hereby
assigned and shall be paid to Lender.

         In the event of a total taking of the Property, the proceeds shall be
applied to the sums secured by this Mortgage, whether or not then due, with any
excess paid to Borrower. In the event of a partial taking of the Property in
which the fair market value of the Property immediately before the taking is
equal to or greater than the amount of the sums secured by this Mortgage
immediately before the taking, unless Borrower and Lender otherwise agree in
writing, if any, the sums secured by this Mortgage shall be reduced by the
amount of the proceeds multiplied by the following fraction: (a) the total
amount of the sums secured immediately before the taking, divided by (b) the
fair market value of the Property immediately before the taking. Any balance
shall be paid to Borrower. In the event of a partial taking of the Property in
which the fair market value of the Property immediately before the taking is
less than the amount of the sums secured immediately before the taking, unless
Borrower and Lender otherwise agree in writing or unless applicable law
otherwise provides, the proceeds shall be applied to the sums secured by this
Mortgage whether or not the sums are then due.

         8.       Forbearance By Lender Not a Waiver. Any forbearance by Lender
in exercising any right or remedy shall not be a waiver of or preclude the
exercise of any right or remedy.

         9.       Successors and Assigns Bound. The covenants and agreements of
this Mortgage shall bind and benefit the successors and assigns of Lender and
Borrower.

                                        3
<PAGE>

         10.      Loan Charges. If the loan secured by this Mortgage is or
becomes subject to a law which sets maximum loan charges, and that law is
finally interpreted so that the interest or other loan charges collected or to
be collected in connection with the loan exceed the permitted limits, then: (a)
any such loan charge shall be reduced by the amount necessary to reduce the
charge to the permitted limit; and (b) any sums already collected from Borrower
which exceeded permitted limits will be refunded to Borrower. Lender may choose
to make this refund by reducing the principal owed under the Note or by making a
direct payment to Borrower. If a refund reduces principal, the reduction will be
treated as a partial prepayment under the Note.

         11.      Notices. Any notice to Borrower provided for in this Mortgage
shall be given by delivering it personally or by mailing it by first class
United States mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested. The notice shall
be directed to the Borrower at 213 Chelsea Road, Monticello, Minnesota 55362,
with a copy to Lindquist & Venuum, P.L.L.P. at 4200 IDS Center, 890 South Eighth
Street, Minneapolis, Minnesota 55402 Attn: Laura Krenz, or any other address
Borrower designates by notice to Lender. Any notice to Lender shall be given or
mailed City Hall, 505 Walnut Avenue, Suite 1, Monticello, Minnesota 55362, Attn:
Executive Director, or any other address Lender designates by notice to
Borrower. Any notice provided for in this Mortgage shall be deemed to have been
given to Borrower or Lender when given as provided in this paragraph.

         12.      Governing Law; Severability. This Mortgage shall be governed
by the law of the state of Minnesota. In the event that any provision or clause
of this Mortgage or the Note conflicts with applicable law, such conflict shall
not affect other provisions of this Mortgage or the Note which can be given
effect without the conflicting provision. To this end, the provisions of this
Mortgage and the Note are declared to be severable.

         13.      Borrower's Right to Reinstate. If Borrower meets certain
conditions, Borrower shall have the right to have enforcement of this Mortgage
discontinued at any time prior to the earlier of: (a) 5 days before sale of the
Property pursuant to any power of sale contained in this Mortgage; or (b) entry
of a judgment enforcing this Mortgage. Those conditions are that Borrower: (a)
pays Lender all sums which then would be due under this Mortgage and the Note as
if no acceleration had occurred; (b) cures any default of any other covenants or
agreements; (c) pays all expenses incurred in enforcing this Mortgage,
including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys fees; and (d) takes such
action as Lender may reasonably require to assure that the lien of this

         Borrower shall promptly give Lender written notice of any
investigation, claim, demand, lawsuit or other action by any governmental or
regulatory agency or private party involving the Property and any hazardous
substance or environmental law of which Borrower has actual knowledge. If
Borrower learns, or is notified by any governmental or regulatory authority,
that any removal or other remediation of any hazardous substance affecting the
Property is necessary, Borrower shall promptly take all necessary remedial
actions in accordance with that environmental law.

         As used in this paragraph 14, "hazardous substances" are those
substances defined as toxic or hazardous substances by environmental law and the
following substances: gasoline, kerosene, other flammable or toxic petroleum
products, volatile solvents, materials containing asbestos or formaldehyde, and
radioactive materials. As used in this paragraph 14, "environmental law" means
federal or state laws that relate to environmental protection.

         15.      Acceleration; Remedies. Lender shall give notice to Borrower
prior to acceleration following Borrower's breach of any covenant or agreement
in this Mortgage. The notice shall specify: (a) the default; (b) the action
required to cure the default; (c) a date, not less than 30 days from the date
the notice is given to Borrower by which the default must be cured, provided,
however, if Borrower is diligently pursuing a cure, Borrower shall have such
additional time as is reasonably necessary to complete the cure; and (d) that
failure to cure the default on or before the date specified in the notice may
result in acceleration of the sums secured by this Mortgage and sale of the
Property. The notice shall further inform Borrower of the right to reinstate
after acceleration and sale. If the default is not cured on or before the date
specified in the notice, Lender at its option may require immediate payment in
full of any sums secured by this Mortgage without further demand and may invoke
the power of sale and any other remedies permitted by law. Lender shall be
entitled to collect all expenses incurred in pursuing the remedies provided in
this paragraph 15, including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys fees.

notice of sale to be served upon any person in possession of the Property.

auction in the manner prescribed by law. Lender or its designee may purchase the
Property at any sale. The proceeds of the sale shall be applied in the following
order: (a) to all expenses of the sale, including, but not limited to,
reasonable attorneys fees; (b) to all sums secured by this Mortgage; and (c) any
excess to the person or persons legally entitled to it.

         16.      RELEASE OF MORTGAGE. Upon payment of all sums secured by this
Mortgage, Lender shall discharge this Mortgage without charge to Borrower.
