the New Note and thereby increase the amount secured by the Deed To Secure Debt,
all in the manner hereinafter set forth.

         NOW,  THEREFORE,  in  consideration  of the premises and other good and
valuable  consideration,  the  receipt  and  sufficiency  of  which  are  hereby

         2.  Mortgagor  warrants  and  represents  that  there are no  defenses,
offsets  or  counterclaims  with  respect to its  obligations  under the Deed To
Secure Debt, as modified hereby, including,  without limitation,  its obligation
for the payment of the Note.

         3. Except as modified in the manner set forth above, the Deed To Secure
Debt shall remain unmodified and in full force and effect.

         4. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, all of
which taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument, and any party
hereto may execute this Agreement by signing any such counterpart.
