security agreement with a lien which has priority over this Mortgage, including

hereafter erected on the Property insured against loss by fire, hazards included
within the term "extended coverage", in the amount of replacement cost.

declaration or covenants creating or governing the condominium or planned unit
development, the by-laws and regulations of the condominium or planned unit

7. Protection of Lender's Security. If Borrower fails to perform the
covenants and agreements contained in this Mortgage, or if any action or
proceeding is commenced which materially affects Lender's interest in the
property, then Lender, at Lender's option, upon notice to Borrower, may make
such appearances, disburse such sums, including reasonable attorneys' fees, and
take such action as is necessary to protect Lender's interest. If Lender
required mortgage insurance as a condition of making the loan secured by this
Mortgage, Borrower shall pay the premiums required to maintain such insurance in
effect until such time as the requirement for such insurance terminates in
accordance with Borrower's and Lender's written agreement or applicable law.
Any amounts disbursed by Lender pursuant to this paragraph 7, with interest
thereon, at the Note rate, shall become additional indebtedness of Borrower
secured by this Mortgage. Unless Borrower and Lender agree to other terms of

requesting payment thereof. Nothing contained in this paragraph 7 shall require
Lender to incur any expense or take any action hereunder.

of trust or other security agreement with a lien which has priority over this
Mortgage.
10. Borrower Not Released; Forbearance By Lender Not a Waiver. Extension
of the time for payment or modification of amortization of the sums secured by
this Mortgage granted by Lender to any successor in Interest of Borrower shall
not operate to release, in any manner, the liability of the original Borrower
and Borrower's successors in interest. Lender shall not be required to commence
proceedings against such successor or refuse to extend time for payment or
otherwise modify amortization of the sums secured by this Mortgage by reason of
any demand made by the original Borrower and Borrower's successors in interest.
Any forbearance by Lender in exercising any right or remedy hereunder, or
otherwise afforded by applicable law, shall not be a waiver of or preclude the
exercise of any such right or remedy.
11. Successors and Assigns Bound; Joint and Several Liability; Co-signers.
The covenants and agreements herein contained shall bind, and the rights
hereunder shall inure to, the respective successors and assigns of Lender and
Borrower, subject to the provisions of paragraph 16 hereof. All covenants and
agreements of Borrower shall be joint and several. Any Borrower who co-signs
this Mortgage, but does not execute the Note, (a) is co-signing this Mortgage
only to mortgage, grant and convey that Borrower's interest in the Property to
Lender under the terms of this Mortgage, (b) is not personally liable on the
Note or under this Mortgage, and (c) agrees that Lender and any other Borrower

consent and without releasing that Borrower or modifying this Mortgage as to
that Borrower's interest in the Property.
12. Notice. Except for any notice required under applicable law to be
given in another manner, (a) any notice to Borrower provided for in this
Mortgage shall be given by delivering it or by mailing such notice by certified
mail addressed to Borrower at the Property Address or at such other address as
Borrower may designate by notice to Lender as provided herein, and (b) any
notice to Lender shall be given by certified mail to Lender's address stated
herein or to such other address as Lender may designate by notice to Borrower as
provided herein. Any notice provided for in this Mortgage shall be deemed to
have been given to Borrower or Lender when given in the manner designated
herein.
13. Governing Law; Severability. The state and local laws applicable to
this Mortgage shall be the laws of the jurisdiction in which the Property is
located. The foregoing sentence shall not limit the applicability of Federal
law to this Mortgage. 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, and to this end the provisions of this Mortgage and the
Note are declared to be severable. As used herein, "costs", "expenses" and
"attorneys' fees" include all sums to the extent not prohibited by applicable
law or limited herein.

acceptable to Lender, an assignment of any rights, claims or defenses which
Borrower may have against parties who supply labor, materials or services in
connection with improvements made to the Property.
16. Transfer of the Property or a Beneficial Interest in Borrower. If all
or any part of the Property or any interest in it is sold or transferred (or if
a beneficial interest in Borrower is sold or transferred and Borrower is not a
natural person) without Lender's prior written consent, Lender may, at its
option, require immediate payment in full of all sums secured by this Mortgage.
However, this option shall not be exercised by Lender if exercise is prohibited
by federal law as of the date of this Mortgage.
If Lender exercises this option, Lender shall give Borrower notice of
acceleration. The notice shall provide a period of not less than 30 days from
the date the notice is delivered or mailed within which Borrower must pay all
sums secured by this Mortgage. If Borrower fails to pay these sums prior to the
expiration of this period, Lender may invoke any remedies permitted by this
Mortgage without further notice or demand on Borrower.
Non-Uniform Covenants. Borrower and Lender further covenant and agree as
follows:
17. Acceleration; Remedies. Except as provided in paragraph 16 hereof,
upon Borrower's breach of any covenant or agreement of Borrower in this
Mortgage, including the covenants to pay when due any sums secured by this
MOrtgage, Lender prior to acceleration shall give notice to Borrower as provided
in paragraph 12 hereof specifying; (1) the breach; (2) the action required to
cure such breach; (3) a date, not less than 10 days from the date the notice is
mailed to Borrower, by which such breach must be cured; and (4) that failure to
cure such breach 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 the right to bring a court action to assert the nonexistence of
a default or any other defense of Borrower to acceleration and sale. If the
breach is not cured on or before the date specified in the notice, Lender, at
Lender's option, may declare all of the sums secured by this Mortgage to be
immediately due and payable without further demand and may invoke the STATUTORY
POWER OF SALE and any other remedies permitted by applicable law. Lender shall
be entitled to collect all reasonable costs and expenses incurred in pursuing
the remedies provided in this paragraph 17, including, but not limited to,
reasonable attorney's fees.
If Lender invokes the STATUTORY POWER OF SALE, Lender shall mail a copy of
a notice of sale to Borrower, and to any other person required by applicable
law, in the manner provided by applicable law. Lender shall publish the notice
of sale and the Property shall be sold in the manner prescribed by applicable
law. Lender or Lender's designee may purchase the Property at any sale. The
proceeds of the sale shall be applied in the following order: (a) to all
reasonable costs and expenses of the sale, including reasonable attorneys' fees
