ATTESTED: December 4, 2012 David J. Twa, County Administrator and Clerk of the Board of Supervisors By: Carrie Del Bonta, Deputy cc: C. 80 To:Board of Supervisors From:Catherine Kutsuris, Conservation & Development Date:December 4, 2012 Contra Costa County Subject:APPROVAL OF HOME INVESTMENT PARTNERSHIPS ACT AND COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT LEGAL DOCUMENTS FOR THE ORINDA SENIOR APARTMENTS IN ORINDA BACKGROUND: On April 29, 2009, the Board of Supervisors allocated $650,000 in CDBG funds to Eden Development, Inc. (Eden) for the Orinda Senior housing project. On April 28, 2010, the Board of Supervisors allocated $1,100,000 in HOME and an additional $400,000 in CDBG funds. On May 15, 2012, the Board awarded an additional $940,000 in HOME and an additional $1,000,000 in CDBG funds. Through these actions, the Board has awarded $2,040,000 of HOME and $2,050,000 of CDBG funds for a total loan amount of $4,090,000. The purpose of the Orinda Senior Apartment project is to improve the supply of multi-family rental housing affordable to and occupied by lower income senior households in Central County through the construction of a 66 unit apartment building in Orinda. Thirty-three of the units will be designated as County-assisted. Seven units will be affordable and available to households earning up to 30 percent of the area median income (AMI). Fourteen units will be affordable and available to households earning up to 40 percent of AMI. The remaining twelve County-assisted units will be affordable and available to households earning up to 50 percent AMI. Eden has formed a limited partnership, Irwin Way L.P. to develop and own this project. Irwin Way L.P. will purchase the site using CDBG funds. HOME funds will be used for development costs including permits and fees, soft costs, and construction costs. HOME and CDBG funds will be provided to Irwin Way L.P. in the form of a 55-year, residual receipt loan a three percent interest rate. Affordability and use restrictions will be incorporated into the County loan documents. National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA): All HOME and CDBG projects are subject to NEPA and 24 CFR Part 58 review. The NEPA review for this project has been completed. Required mitigations are included in the loan agreement. Additional financing for the development includes a City of Orinda loan, low income housing tax credits, project-based Section 8 certificates, and a private bank loan. Eden may also apply for Federal Home Loan Bank Affordable Housing Program funds. Due to the high construction costs and limited revenue from the restricted rents, the total amount of the financing provided to the project will likely exceed the value of the completed project. Even though the proposed equity investment from low income housing tax credits is substantial compared to the amount of long term debt, the partnership agreement will have numerous safe guards of the investors equity. These safe guards essentially subordinate the County’s debt to the investor’s equity. Therefore, the County funds (federal grant funds) may not be fully secured through the value of the property. County Counsel has approved to form the following attached documents: • HOME and CDBG Loan Agreement • Promissory Note • Deed of Trust with Assignment Of Rents, Security Agreement, And Fixture Filing • Regulatory Agreement and Declaration Of Restrictive Covenants CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION: Without the approval and execution of the HOME and CDBG legal documents, the project will not be constructed. Eden must close on all financing in December or will lose the nine percent low income housing tax credits.

The acceptance by Holder of any payment that is less than the total of all amounts due and payable at the time of such payment does not constitute a waiver of the right to exercise any of the foregoing remedies or options at that time or at any subsequent time, or nullify any prior exercise of any such remedy or option, without the express consent of Holder, except as and to the extent otherwise provided by law. 8. Waivers.

Section 1.7 The term "Regulatory Agreement" means the Regulatory Agreement and Declaration of Restrictive Covenants of even date herewith by and between the Beneficiary and the Trustor. ARTICLE 2 MAINTENANCE AND MODIFICATION OF THE PROPERTY AND SECURITY Section 2.1 Maintenance and Modification of the Property by Trustor. The Trustor agrees that at all times prior to full payment and performance of the Secured Obligations, the Trustor will, at the Trustor's own expense, maintain, preserve and keep the Security or cause the Security to be maintained and preserved in good condition. The Trustor will from time to time make or cause to be made all repairs, replacements and renewals deemed proper and necessary by it. The Beneficiary has no responsibility in any of these matters or for the making of improvements or additions to the Security. Trustor agrees to pay fully and discharge (or cause to be paid fully and discharged) all claims for labor done and for material and services furnished in connection with the Security, diligently to file or procure the filing of a valid notice of cessation upon the event of a cessation of labor on the work or construction on the Security for a continuous period of thirty (30) days or more, and to take all other reasonable steps to forestall the assertion of claims of lien against the Security or any part thereof. Trustor irrevocably appoints, designates and authorizes Beneficiary as its agent (said agency being coupled with an interest) with the authority, but without any obligation, to file for record any notices of completion or cessation of labor or any other notice that Beneficiary deems necessary or desirable to protect its interest in and to the Security or the Loan Documents; provided, however, that Beneficiary exercises its rights as agent of Trustor only in the event that Trustor fails to take, or fails to diligently continue to take, those actions as hereinbefore provided. Upon demand by Beneficiary, Trustor shall make or cause to be made such demands or claims as Beneficiary specifies upon laborers, materialmen, subcontractors or other persons who have furnished or claim to have furnished labor, services or materials in connection with the Security. Nothing herein contained requires Trustor to pay any claims for labor, materials or services which Trustor in good faith disputes and is diligently contesting provided that Trustor shall, within thirty (30) days after the filing of any claim of lien, record in the Office of the Recorder of Contra Costa County, a surety bond in an amount 1 and 1/2 times the amount of such claim item to protect against a claim of lien. Section 2.2 Granting of Easements. Trustor may not grant easements, licenses, rights-of-way or other rights or privileges in the nature of easements with respect to any property or rights included in the Security except 863\90\1210054.2 5 those required or desirable for installation and maintenance of public utilities including, without limitation, water, gas, electricity, sewer, telephone and telegraph, or those required by law, and as approved, in writing, by Beneficiary. Section 2.3 Assignment of Rents. As part of the consideration for the indebtedness evidenced by the Note, Trustor hereby absolutely and unconditionally assigns and transfers to Beneficiary all the rents and revenues of the Property including those now due, past due, or to become due by virtue of any lease or other agreement for the occupancy or use of all or any part of the Property, regardless of to whom the rents and revenues of the Property are payable, subject to the rights of senior lenders. Trustor hereby authorizes Beneficiary or Beneficiary's agents to collect the aforesaid rents and revenues and hereby directs each tenant of the Property to pay such rents to Beneficiary or Beneficiary's agents; provided, however, that prior to written notice given by Beneficiary to Trustor of the breach by Trustor of any covenant or agreement of Trustor in the Loan Documents, Trustor shall 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 Secured Obligations with the balance, so long as no such breach has occurred, to the account of Trustor, 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 delivery of written notice by Beneficiary to Trustor of the breach by Trustor of any covenant or agreement of Trustor in the Loan Documents, 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 rents and revenues of the Property as specified in this Section 2.3 as the same becomes due and payable, including but not limited to, rents then due and unpaid, and all such rents will immediately upon delivery of such notice be held by Trustor as trustee for the benefit of Beneficiary only; provided, however, that the written notice by Beneficiary to Trustor of the breach by Trustor contains a statement that Beneficiary exercises its rights to such rents. Trustor agrees that commencing upon delivery of such written notice of Trustor's breach 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 therefor, delivered to each tenant personally, by mail or by delivering such demand to each rental unit, without any liability on the part of said tenant to inquire further as to the existence of a default by Trustor. 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 Section 2.3, and that at the time of execution of this Deed of Trust, there has been no anticipation or prepayment of any of the rents of the Property for more than two (2) months 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 two (2) months prior to the due dates of such rents. Trustor further covenant 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 Trustor's breach of any covenant or agreement of Trustor in the Loan Documents, Beneficiary may in person, by agent or by a court-appointed receiver, regardless of the adequacy 863\90\1210054.2 6 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 making of repairs to the Property and the execution or termination of contracts providing for the management or maintenance of the Property, all on such terms as are deemed best to protect the security of this Deed of Trust. In the event Beneficiary elects to seek the appointment of a receiver for the Property upon Trustor's breach of any covenant or agreement of Trustor in this Deed of Trust, Trustor hereby expressly consents to the appointment of such receiver. Beneficiary or the receiver will be entitled to receive a reasonable fee for so managing the Property. All rents and revenues collected subsequent to delivery of written notice by Beneficiary to Trustor of the breach by Trustor of any covenant or agreement of Trustor in the Loan Documents are to 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, attorney's 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 sums secured by this deed of Trust. Beneficiary or the receiver is to have access to the books and records used in the operation and maintenance of the Property and will be liable to account only for those rents actually received. Beneficiary is not 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 Section 2.3. 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 will become part of the Secured Obligations pursuant to Section 3.3 hereof. Unless Beneficiary and Trustor agree in writing to other terms of payment, such amounts are payable by Trustor to Beneficiary upon notice from Beneficiary to Trustor requesting payment thereof and will bear interest from the date of disbursement at the rate stated in Section 3.3. If the Beneficiary or the receiver enters upon and takes and maintains control of the Property, neither that act nor any application of rents as provided herein will cure or waive any default under this Deed of Trust or invalidate any other right or remedy available to Beneficiary under applicable law or under this Deed of Trust. This assignment of rents of the Property will terminate at such time as this Deed of Trust ceases to secure the Secured Obligations. ARTICLE 3 TAXES AND INSURANCE; ADVANCES Section 3.1 Taxes, Other Governmental Charges and Utility Charges. Trustor shall pay, or cause to be paid, prior to the date of delinquency, all taxes, assessments, charges and levies imposed by any public authority or utility company that are or may become a lien affecting the Security or any part thereof; provided, however, that Trustor is not required to pay and discharge any such tax, assessment, charge or levy so long as (a) the 863\90\1210054.2 7 legality thereof is promptly and actively contested in good faith and by appropriate proceedings, and (b) Trustor maintains reserves adequate to pay any liabilities contested pursuant to this Section 3.1. With respect to taxes, special assessments or other similar governmental charges, Trustor shall pay such amount in full prior to the attachment of any lien therefor on any part of the Security; provided, however, if such taxes, assessments or charges can be paid in installments, Trustor may pay in such installments. Except as provided in clause (b) of the first sentence of this paragraph, the provisions of this Section 3.1 may not be construed to require that Trustor maintain a reserve account, escrow account, impound account or other similar account for the payment of future taxes, assessments, charges and levies. In the event that Trustor fails to pay any of the items required by this Section to be paid by Trustor, Beneficiary may (but is under no obligation to) pay the same, after the Beneficiary has notified the Trustor of such failure to pay and the Trustor fails to fully pay such items within seven (7) business days after receipt of such notice. Any amount so advanced therefor by Beneficiary, together with interest thereon from the date of such advance at the maximum rate permitted by law, will become part of the Secured Obligations secured hereby, and Trustor agrees to pay all such amounts. Section 3.2 Provisions Respecting Insurance. Trustor agrees to provide insurance conforming in all respects to that required under the Loan Documents during the course of construction and following completion, and at all times until all amounts secured by this Deed of Trust have been paid, all Secured Obligations secured hereunder have been fulfilled, and this Deed of Trust has been reconveyed. All such insurance policies and coverages are to be maintained at Trustor's sole cost and expense. Certificates of insurance for all of the above insurance policies, showing the same to be in full force and effect, are to be delivered to the Beneficiary upon demand therefor at any time prior to Trustor's satisfaction of the Secured Obligations. Section 3.3 Advances. In the event the Trustor fails to maintain the full insurance coverage required by this Deed of Trust or fails to keep the Security in accordance with the Loan Documents, the Beneficiary, after at least seven (7) days prior notice to Trustor, may (but is under no obligation to) (i) take out the required policies of insurance and pay the premiums on the same, and (ii) make any repairs or replacements that are necessary and provide for payment thereof. All amounts so advanced by the Beneficiary will become part of the Secured Obligations (together with interest as set forth below) and will be secured hereby, which amounts the Trustor agrees to pay on the demand of the Beneficiary, and if not so paid, will bear interest from the date of the advance at the Default Rate. 863\90\1210054.2 8 ARTICLE 4 DAMAGE, DESTRUCTION OR CONDEMNATION Section 4.1 Awards and Damages. Subject to the rights of senior lenders, all judgments, awards of damages, settlements and compensation made in connection with or in lieu of (1) the taking of all or any part of or any interest in the Property by or under assertion of the power of eminent domain, (2) any damage to or destruction of the Property or any part thereof by insured casualty, and (3) any other injury or damage to all or any part of the Property (collectively, the "Funds") are hereby assigned to and are to be paid to the Beneficiary by a check made payable to the Beneficiary. The Beneficiary is authorized and empowered (but not required) to collect and receive any Funds and is authorized to apply them in whole or in part to any indebtedness or obligation secured hereby, in such order and manner as the Beneficiary determines at its sole option. The Beneficiary is entitled to settle and adjust all claims under insurance policies provided under this Deed of Trust and may deduct and retain from the proceeds of such insurance the amount of all expenses incurred by it in connection with any such settlement or adjustment. All or any part of the amounts so collected and recovered by the Beneficiary may be released to Trustor upon such conditions as the Beneficiary may impose for its disposition. Application of all or any part of the Funds collected and received by the Beneficiary or the release thereof will not cure or waive any default under this Deed of Trust. The rights of the Beneficiary under this Section 4.1 are subject to the rights of any senior mortgage lender. The Beneficiary shall release the Funds to Trustor to be used to reconstruct the improvements on the Property provided that Beneficiary reasonably determines that Trustor (taking into account the Funds) has sufficient funds to rebuild the improvements in substantially the form that existed prior to the casualty or condemnation. ARTICLE 5 AGREEMENTS AFFECTING THE PROPERTY; FURTHER ASSURANCES; PAYMENT OF PRINCIPAL AND INTEREST Section 5.1 Other Agreements Affecting Property. The Trustor shall duly and punctually perform all terms, covenants, conditions and agreements binding upon it under the Loan Documents and any other agreement of any nature whatsoever now or hereafter involving or affecting the Security or any part thereof. Section 5.2 Agreement to Pay Attorneys' Fees and Expenses. In the event of any Event of Default (as defined in Section 7.1) hereunder, and if the Beneficiary employs attorneys or incurs other expenses for the collection of amounts due hereunder or the enforcement of performance or observance of an obligation or agreement on the part of the Trustor in this Deed of Trust, the Trustor agrees that it will, on demand therefor, pay to the Beneficiary the reasonable fees of such attorneys and such other reasonable expenses so incurred by the Beneficiary. Any such amounts paid by the Beneficiary will be added to the Secured Obligations, and will bear interest from the date such expenses are incurred at the Default Rate. 863\90\1210054.2 9 Section 5.3 Payment of the Principal. The Trustor shall pay to the Beneficiary the Principal and any other payments as set forth in the Note in the amounts and by the times set out therein. Section 5.4 Personal Property. To the maximum extent permitted by law, the personal property subject to this Deed of Trust is deemed to be fixtures and part of the real property and this Deed of Trust constitutes a fixtures filing under the California Commercial Code. As to any personal property not deemed or permitted to be fixtures, this Deed of Trust constitutes a security agreement under the California Commercial Code. Section 5.5 Financing Statement. The Trustor shall execute and deliver to the Beneficiary such financing statements pursuant to the appropriate statutes, and any other documents or instruments as are required to convey to the Beneficiary a valid perfected security interest in the Security. The Trustor shall perform all acts that the Beneficiary reasonably requests so as to enable the Beneficiary to maintain a valid perfected security interest in the Security in order to secure the payment of the Note in accordance with its terms. The Beneficiary is authorized to file a copy of any such financing statement in any jurisdiction(s) as it deems appropriate from time to time in order to protect the security interest established pursuant to this instrument. Section 5.6 Operation of the Security. The Trustor shall operate the Security (and, in case of a transfer of a portion of the Security subject to this Deed of Trust, the transferee shall operate such portion of the Security) in full compliance with the Loan Documents.

At any and all reasonable times upon seventy-two (72) hours' notice, the Beneficiary and its duly authorized agents, attorneys, experts, engineers, accountants and representatives, may inspect the Security, without payment of charges or fees. Section 5.8 Nondiscrimination. The Trustor herein covenants by and for itself, its heirs, executors, administrators, and assigns, and all persons claiming under or through them, that there will be no discrimination against or segregation of, any person or group of persons on account of race, color, creed, religion, age, sex, sexual orientation, marital status, national origin or ancestry in the sale, lease, sublease, transfer, use, occupancy, tenure or enjoyment of the Security, nor will the Trustor itself or any person claiming under or through it establish or permit any such practice or practices of discrimination or segregation with reference to the selection, location, number, use or occupancy of tenants, lessees, subtenants, sublessees or vendees in the Security. The foregoing covenants run with the land. 863\90\1210054.2 10 ARTICLE 6 HAZARDOUS WASTE Trustor shall keep and maintain the Property (including, but not limited to, soil and ground water conditions) in compliance with all Hazardous Materials Laws and shall not cause or permit the Property to be in violation of any Hazardous Materials Law (defined below). Trustor may not cause or permit the use, generation, manufacture, storage or disposal of on, under, or about the Property or transportation to or from the Property of (i) any substance, material, or waste that is petroleum, petroleum-related, or a petroleum by-product, asbestos or asbestos-containing material, polychlorinated biphenyls, flammable, explosive, radioactive, freon gas, radon, or a pesticide, herbicide, or any other agricultural chemical, and (ii) any waste, substance or material defined as or included in the definition of "hazardous substances," "hazardous wastes," "hazardous materials," "toxic materials", "toxic waste", "toxic substances," or words of similar import under any Hazardous Materials Law (collectively referred to hereinafter as "Hazardous Materials"), except such of the foregoing as may be customarily used in construction or operation of a multi-family residential development. Trustor shall immediately advise Beneficiary in writing if at any time it receives written notice of: (i) any and all enforcement, cleanup, removal or other governmental or regulatory actions instituted, completed or threatened against Trustor or the Property pursuant to any applicable federal, state or local laws, ordinances, or regulations relating to any Hazardous Materials, health, industrial hygiene, environmental conditions, or the regulation or protection of the environment, and all amendments thereto as of this date and to be added in the future and any successor statute or rule or regulation promulgated thereto ("Hazardous Materials Law"); (ii) all claims made or threatened by any third party against Trustor or the Property relating to damage, contribution, cost recovery compensation, loss or injury resulting from any Hazardous Materials (the matters set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) above are hereinafter referred to as "Hazardous Materials Claims"); and (iii) Trustor's discovery of any occurrence or condition on any real property adjoining or in the vicinity of the Property that could cause the Property or any part thereof to be classified as "border-zone property" (as defined in California Health and Safety Code Section 25117.4) under the provision of California Health and Safety Code Section 25220 et seq., or any regulation adopted in accordance therewith, or to be otherwise subject to any restrictions on the ownership, occupancy, transferability or use of the Property under any Hazardous Materials Law. Beneficiary has the right to join and participate in, as a party if it so elects, and be represented by counsel acceptable to Beneficiary (or counsel of its own choice if a conflict exists with Trustor) in, any legal proceedings or actions initiated in connection with any Hazardous Materials Claims, and to have its reasonable attorneys' fees in connection therewith paid by Trustor. Trustor shall indemnify and hold harmless the Beneficiary and its boardmembers, directors, officers, employees, agents, successors and assigns from and against any loss, damage, cost, fine, penalty, judgment, award, settlement, expense or liability, directly or indirectly arising out of or attributable to: (i) any actual or alleged past or present violation of any Hazardous Materials Law; (ii) any Hazardous Materials Claim; (iii) any actual or alleged past or present use, 863\90\1210054.2 11 generation, manufacture, storage, release, threatened release, discharge, disposal, transportation, or presence of Hazardous Materials on, under, or about the Property; (iv) any investigation, cleanup, remediation, removal, or restoration work of site conditions of the Property relating to Hazardous Materials (whether on the Property or any other property); and (v) the breach of any representation of warranty by or covenant of Trustor in this Article, and Section 5.1(m) of the Loan Agreement. Such indemnity shall include, without limitation: (x) all consequential damages; (y) the costs of any required or necessary investigation, repair, cleanup or detoxification of the Property and the preparation and implementation of any closure, remedial or other required plans; and (z) all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Beneficiary in connection with clauses (x) and (y), including but not limited to reasonable attorneys' fees and consultant fees. This indemnification applies whether or not any government agency has issued a cleanup order. Losses, claims, costs, suits, liability, and expenses covered by this indemnification provision include, but are not limited to: (1) losses attributable to diminution in the value of the Property; (2) loss or restriction of use of rentable space on the Property; (3) adverse effect on the marketing of any rental space on the Property; and (4) penalties and fines levied by, and remedial or enforcement actions of any kind issued by any regulatory agency (including but not limited to the costs of any required testing, remediation, repair, removal, cleanup or detoxification of the Property and surrounding properties). This obligation to indemnify will survive reconveyance of this Deed of Trust and will not be diminished or affected in any respect as a result of any notice, disclosure, knowledge, if any, to or by the Beneficiary of Hazardous Materials. Without Beneficiary's prior written consent, which may not be unreasonably withheld, Trustor may not take any remedial action in response to the presence of any Hazardous Materials on, under or about the Property, nor enter into any settlement agreement, consent decree, or other compromise in respect to any Hazardous Material Claims, which remedial action, settlement, consent decree or compromise might, in Beneficiary's reasonable judgment, impairs the value of the Beneficiary's security hereunder; provided, however, that Beneficiary's prior consent is not necessary in the event that the presence of Hazardous Materials on, under, or about the Property either poses an immediate threat to the health, safety or welfare of any individual or is of such a nature that an immediate remedial response is necessary and it is not reasonably possible to obtain Beneficiary's consent before taking such action, provided that in such event Trustor notifies Beneficiary as soon as practicable of any action so taken. Beneficiary agrees not to withhold its consent, where such consent is required hereunder, if (i) a particular remedial action is ordered by a court of competent jurisdiction; (ii) Trustor will or may be subjected to civil or criminal sanctions or penalties if it fails to take a required action; (iii) Trustor establishes to the reasonable satisfaction of Beneficiary that there is no reasonable alternative to such remedial action which would result in less impairment of Beneficiary's security hereunder; or (iv) the action has been agreed to by Beneficiary. The Trustor hereby acknowledges and agrees that (i) this Article is intended as the Beneficiary's written request for information (and the Trustor's response) concerning the environmental condition of the Property as required by California Code of Civil Procedure Section 726.5, and (ii) each representation and warranty in this Deed of Trust or any of the other Loan Documents (together with any indemnity applicable to a breach of any such representation and warranty) with respect to the environmental condition of the property is intended by the 863\90\1210054.2 12 Beneficiary and the Trustor to be an "environmental provision" for purposes of California Code of Civil Procedure Section 736. In the event that any portion of the Property is determined to be "environmentally impaired" (as that term is defined in California Code of Civil Procedure Section 726.5(e)(3)) or to be an "affected parcel" (as that term is defined in California Code of Civil Procedure Section 726.5(e)(1)), then, without otherwise limiting or in any way affecting the Beneficiary's or the Trustee's rights and remedies under this Deed of Trust, the Beneficiary may elect to exercise its rights under California Code of Civil Procedure Section 726.5(a) to (1) waive its lien on such environmentally impaired or affected portion of the Property and (2) exercise (a) the rights and remedies of an unsecured creditor, including reduction of its claim against the Trustor to judgment, and (b) any other rights and remedies permitted by law. For purposes of determining the Beneficiary's right to proceed as an unsecured creditor under California Code of Civil Procedure Section 726.5(a), the Trustor will be deemed to have willfully permitted or acquiesced in a release or threatened release of hazardous materials, within the meaning of California Code of Civil Procedure Section 726.5(d)(1), if the release or threatened release of hazardous materials was knowingly or negligently caused or contributed to by any lessee, occupant, or user of any portion of the Property and the Trustor knew or should have known of the activity by such lessee, occupant, or user which caused or contributed to the release or threatened release. All costs and expenses, including (but not limited to) attorneys' fees, incurred by the Beneficiary in connection with any action commenced under this paragraph, including any action required by California Code of Civil Procedure Section 726.5(b) to determine the degree to which the Property is environmentally impaired, plus interest thereon at the Default Rate until paid, will be added to the indebtedness secured by this Deed of Trust and will be due and payable to the Beneficiary upon its demand made at any time following the conclusion of such action. ARTICLE 7 EVENTS OF DEFAULT AND REMEDIES Section 7.1 Events of Default. The following are events of default following the expiration of any applicable notice and cure periods (each an "Event of Default"): (i) failure to make any payment to be paid by Trustor under the Loan Documents; (ii) failure to observe or perform any of Trustor's other covenants, agreements or obligations under the Loan Documents, including, without limitation, the provisions concerning discrimination; (iii) failure to make any payment or observe or perform any of Trustor's other covenants, agreements, or obligations under any Secured Obligations, which default is not cured within the times and in the manner provided therein; and (iv) failure to make any payments or observe or perform any of Trustor's other covenants, agreements or obligations under any other debt instrument or regulatory agreement secured by the Property, which default is not cured within the time and in the manner provided therein. Section 7.2 Acceleration of Maturity. If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, then at the option of the Beneficiary, the amount of any payment related to the Event of Default and all unpaid Secured 863\90\1210054.2 13 Obligations are immediately due and payable, and no omission on the part of the Beneficiary to exercise such option when entitled to do so may be construed as a waiver of such right. Section 7.3 The Beneficiary's Right to Enter and Take Possession. If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Beneficiary may: (a) Either in person or by agent, with or without bringing any action or proceeding, or by a receiver appointed by a court, and without regard to the adequacy of its security, enter upon the Property and take possession thereof (or any part thereof) and of any of the Security, in its own name or in the name of Trustee, and do any acts that it deems necessary or desirable to preserve the value or marketability of the Property, or part thereof or interest therein, increase the income therefrom or protect the security thereof. The entering upon and taking possession of the Security will not cure or waive any Event of Default or Notice of Sale (as defined in Section 7.3(c), below) hereunder or invalidate any act done in response to such Event of Default or pursuant to such Notice of Sale, and, notwithstanding the continuance in possession of the Security, Beneficiary will be entitled to exercise every right provided for in this Deed of Trust, or by law upon occurrence of any Event of Default, including the right to exercise the power of sale; (b) Commence an action to foreclose this Deed of Trust as a mortgage, appoint a receiver, or specifically enforce any of the covenants hereof; (c) Deliver to Trustee a written declaration of an Event of Default and demand for sale, and a written notice of default and election to cause Trustor's interest in the Security to be sold ("Notice of Sale"), which notice Trustee or Beneficiary shall cause to be duly filed for record in the Official Records of Contra Costa County; or (d) Exercise all other rights and remedies provided herein, in the instruments by which the Trustor acquires title to any Security, or in any other document or agreement now or hereafter evidencing, creating or securing the Secured Obligations. Section 7.4 Foreclosure By Power of Sale. Should the Beneficiary elect to foreclose by exercise of the power of sale herein contained, the Beneficiary shall deliver to the Trustee the Notice of Sale and shall deposit with Trustee this Deed of Trust which is secured hereby (and the deposit of which will be deemed to constitute evidence that the Secured Obligations are immediately due and payable), and such receipts and evidence of any expenditures made that are additionally secured hereby as Trustee may require. (a) Upon receipt of the Notice of Sale from the Beneficiary, Trustee shall cause to be recorded, published and delivered to Trustor such Notice of Sale as is then required by law and by this Deed of Trust. Trustee shall, without demand on Trustor, after the lapse of that amount of time as is then required by law and after recordation of such Notice of Sale as required by law, sell the Security, at the time and place of sale set forth in the Notice of Sale, whether as a whole or in separate lots or parcels or items, as Trustee deems expedient and in such order as it determines, unless specified otherwise by the Trustor according to California 863\90\1210054.2 14 Civil Code Section 2924g(b), at public auction to the highest bidder, for cash in lawful money of the United States payable at the time of sale. Trustee shall deliver to such purchaser or purchasers thereof its good and sufficient deed or deeds conveying the property so sold, but without any covenant or warranty, express or implied. The recitals in such deed or any matters of facts will be conclusive proof of the truthfulness thereof. Any person, including, without limitation, Trustor, Trustee or Beneficiary, may purchase at such sale. (b) After deducting all reasonable costs, fees and expenses of Trustee, including costs of evidence of title in connection with such sale, Trustee shall apply the proceeds of sale to payment of: (i) the unpaid Principal amount of the Note; (ii) all other Secured Obligations owed to Beneficiary under the Loan Documents; (iii) all other sums then secured hereby; and (iv) the remainder, if any, to Trustor. (c) Trustee may postpone sale of all or any portion of the Property by public announcement at such time and place of sale, and from time to time thereafter, 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. Section 7.5 Receiver. If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, Beneficiary, as a matter of right and without further notice to Trustor or anyone claiming under the Security, and without regard to the then value of the Security or the interest of Trustor therein, may apply to any court having jurisdiction to appoint a receiver or receivers of the Security (or a part thereof), and Trustor hereby irrevocably consents to such appointment and waives further notice of any application therefor. Any such receiver or receivers will have all the usual powers and duties of receivers in like or similar cases, and all the powers and duties of Beneficiary in case of entry as provided herein, and will continue as such and exercise all such powers until the date of confirmation of sale of the Security, unless such receivership is sooner terminated. Section 7.6 Remedies Cumulative. No right, power or remedy conferred upon or reserved to the Beneficiary by this Deed of Trust is intended to be exclusive of any other right, power or remedy, but each and every such right, power and remedy will be cumulative and concurrent and will be in addition to any other right, power and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity. Section 7.7 No Waiver. (a) No delay or omission of the Beneficiary to exercise any right, power or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default will exhaust or impair any such right, power or remedy, and may not be construed to be a waiver of any such Event of Default or acquiescence therein; and every right, power and remedy given by this Deed of Trust to the Beneficiary may be exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed expeditious by the Beneficiary. Beneficiary's express or implied consent to breach, or waiver of, any obligation of the Trustor hereunder will not be deemed or construed to be a consent to any subsequent breach, or further waiver, of such obligation or of any other obligations of the Trustor hereunder. Failure on the part of the Beneficiary to complain of any act or failure to act or to declare an Event of Default, 863\90\1210054.2 15 irrespective of how long such failure continues, will not constitute a waiver by the Beneficiary of its right hereunder or impair any rights, power or remedies consequent on any Event of Default by the Trustor. (b) If the Beneficiary (i) grants forbearance or an extension of time for the payment or performance of any Secured Obligation, (ii) takes other or additional security or the payment of any sums secured hereby, (iii) waives or does not exercise any right granted in the Loan Documents, (iv) releases any part of the Security from the lien of this Deed of Trust, or otherwise changes any of the terms, covenants, conditions or agreements in the Loan Documents, (v) consents to the granting of any easement or other right affecting the Security, or (vi) makes or consents to any agreement subordinating the lien hereof, any such act or omission will not release, discharge, modify, change or affect the original liability under this Deed of Trust, or any other obligation of the Trustor or any subsequent purchaser of the Security or any part thereof, or any maker, co-signer, endorser, surety or guarantor (unless expressly released); nor will any such act or omission preclude the Beneficiary from exercising any right, power or privilege herein granted or intended to be granted in any Event of Default then made or of any subsequent Event of Default, nor, except as otherwise expressly provided in an instrument or instruments executed by the Beneficiary, will the lien of this Deed of Trust be altered thereby. Section 7.8 Suits to Protect the Security. The Beneficiary has the power to (a) institute and maintain such suits and proceedings as it may deem expedient to prevent any impairment of the Security and the rights of the Beneficiary as may be unlawful or any violation of this Deed of Trust, (b) preserve or protect its interest (as described in this Deed of Trust) in the Security, and (c) restrain the enforcement of or compliance with any legislation or other governmental enactment, rule or order that may be unconstitutional or otherwise invalid, if the enforcement for compliance with such enactment, rule or order would impair the Security thereunder or be prejudicial to the interest of the Beneficiary. Section 7.9 Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. In the case of any receivership, insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other proceedings affecting the Trustor, its creditors or its property, the Beneficiary, to the extent permitted by law, will be entitled to file such proofs of claim and other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Beneficiary allowed in such proceedings and for any additional amount that becomes due and payable by the Trustor hereunder after such date. Section 7.10 Waiver. The Trustor waives presentment, demand for payment, notice of dishonor, notice of protest and nonpayment, protest, notice of interest on interest and late charges, and diligence in taking any action to collect any Secured Obligations or in proceedings against the Security, in connection with the delivery, acceptance, performance, default, endorsement or guaranty of this Deed of Trust. 863\90\1210054.2 16 ARTICLE 8 MISCELLANEOUS Section 8.1 Amendments. This Deed of Trust cannot be waived, changed, discharged or terminated orally, but only by an instrument in writing signed by Beneficiary and Trustor. Section 8.2 Reconveyance by Trustee. Upon written request of Beneficiary stating that all Secured Obligations have been paid or forgiven, and all obligations under the Loan Documents have been performed in full, and upon surrender of this Deed of Trust to Trustee for cancellation and retention, and upon payment by Trustor of Trustee's reasonable fees, Trustee shall reconvey the Security to Trustor, or to the person or persons legally entitled thereto.

Where Trustor is more than one entity or person, all obligations of Trustor will be deemed to be a joint and several obligation of each and every entity and person comprising Trustor.

Section 8.6 Invalidity of Certain Provisions. Every provision of this Deed of Trust is intended to be severable. In the event any term or provision hereof is declared to be illegal or invalid for any reason whatsoever by a court or other body of competent jurisdiction, such illegality or invalidity will not affect the balance of the terms and provisions hereof, which terms and provisions will remain binding and enforceable. If the lien of this Deed of Trust is invalid or unenforceable as to any part of the debt, or if the lien is invalid or unenforceable as to any part of the Security, the unsecured or partially secured portion of the debt, and all payments made on the debt, whether voluntary or under foreclosure or other enforcement action or procedure, will be considered to have been first paid or applied to the full payment of that portion of the debt that is not secured or partially secured by the lien of this Deed of Trust.
