performance of Borrower's covenants and agreements under this Security
Instrument and the Note. For this purpose, Borrower irrevocably grants and
conveys to Trustee, in trust, with power of sale, the following described
property located in the _________________________________ [Type of Recording Jurisdiction] of _________________________________
[Name of Recording Jurisdiction]
which currently has the address of ______________________________________________________________
[complete mailing address]
("Property Address"): 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 Security Instrument. All of the foregoing is referred to in this Security
Instrument as the "Property." BORROWER COVENANTS that Borrower is lawfully seised of the estate hereby
conveyed and has the right to grant and convey the Property and that the
Property is unencumbered, except for encumbrances of record. Borrower warrants
and will defend generally the title to the Property against all claims and
demands, subject to any encumbrances of record. THIS SECURITY INSTRUMENT combines uniform covenants for national use and
non-uniform covenants with limited variations by jurisdiction to constitute a
uniform security instrument covering real property. Borrower and Lender covenant and agree as follows: 1.
Payment of Principal, Interest, Escrow Items, Prepayment Charges, and Late
Charges. Borrower shall pay when due the principal of, and interest on, the debt
evidenced by the Note and any prepayment charges and late charges due under the
Note. Borrower shall also pay funds for Escrow Items pursuant to Section 3.
Payments due under the Note and this Security Instrument shall be made in Payments are deemed received by Lender when received at the location
designated in the Note or at such other location as may be designated by Lender
in accordance with the notice provisions in Section 15. Lender may return any
payment or partial payment if the payment or partial payments are insufficient
to bring the Loan current. Lender may accept any payment or partial payment
insufficient to bring the Loan current, without waiver of any rights hereunder
or prejudice to its rights to refuse such payment or partial payments in the
future, but Lender is not obligated to apply such payments at the time such
payments are accepted. If each Periodic Payment is applied as of its scheduled
due date, then Lender need not pay interest on unapplied funds. Lender may hold
such unapplied funds until Borrower makes payment to bring the Loan current. If
Borrower does not do so within a reasonable period of time, Lender shall either
apply such funds or return them to Borrower. If not applied earlier, such funds
will be applied to the outstanding principal balance under the Note immediately
prior to foreclosure. No offset or claim which Borrower might have now or in
the future against Lender shall relieve Borrower from making payments due under
the Note and this Security Instrument or performing the covenants and
agreements secured by this Security Instrument. 2.
Application of Payments or Proceeds. Except as otherwise described in
this Section 2, all payments accepted and applied by Lender shall be applied in
the following order of priority: (a) interest due under the Note; (b) principal
due under the Note; (c) amounts due under Section 3. Such payments shall be
applied to each Periodic Payment in the order in which it became due. Any
remaining amounts shall be applied first to late charges, second to any other
amounts due under this Security Instrument, and then to reduce the principal
balance of the Note. If Lender receives a payment from Borrower for a delinquent Periodic
Payment which includes a sufficient amount to pay any late charge due, the
payment may be applied to the delinquent payment and the late charge. If more
than one Periodic Payment is outstanding, Lender may apply any payment received
from Borrower to the repayment of the Periodic Payments if, and to the extent
that, each payment can be paid in full. To the extent that any excess exists
after the payment is applied to the full payment of one or more Periodic
Payments, such excess may be applied to any late charges due. Voluntary
prepayments shall be applied first to any prepayment charges and then as
described in the Note. Any application of payments, insurance proceeds, or Miscellaneous
Proceeds to principal due under the Note shall not extend or postpone the due
date, or change the amount, of the Periodic Payments. 3. Funds
for Escrow Items. Borrower shall pay to Lender on the day Periodic
Payments are due under the Note, until the Note is paid in full, a sum (the
"Funds") to provide for payment of amounts due for: (a) taxes and
assessments and other items which can attain priority over this Security
Instrument as a lien or encumbrance on the Property; (b) leasehold payments or
ground rents on the Property, if any; (c) premiums for any and all insurance
required by Lender under Section 5; and (d) Mortgage Insurance premiums, if
any, or any sums payable by Borrower to Lender in lieu of the payment of
Mortgage Insurance premiums in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.
These items are called "Escrow Items". At origination or at any time
during the term of the Loan, Lender may require that Community Association
Dues, Fees, and Assessments, if any, be escrowed by Borrower, and such dues,
fees and assessments shall be an Escrow Item. Borrower shall promptly furnish
to Lender all notices of amounts to be paid under this Section. Borrower shall
pay Lender the Funds for Escrow Items unless Lender waives Borrower's
obligation to pay the Funds for any or all Escrow Items. Lender may waive
Borrower's obligation to pay to Lender Funds for any or all Escrow Items at any
time. Any such waiver may only be in writing. In the event of such waiver,
Borrower shall pay directly, when and where payable, the amounts due for any
Escrow Items for which payment of Funds has been waived by Lender and, if
Lender requires, shall furnish to Lender receipts evidencing such payment within
such time period as Lender may require. Borrower's obligation to make such
payments and to provide receipts shall for all purposes be deemed to be a
covenant and agreement contained in this Security Instrument, as the phrase
"covenant and agreement", is used in Section 9. If Borrower is
obligated to pay Escrow Items directly, pursuant to a waiver, and Borrower
fails to pay the amount due for an Escrow Item, Lender may exercise its rights
under Section 9 and pay such amount and Borrower shall then be obligated under
Section 9 to repay to Lender any such amount. Lender may revoke the waiver as
to any or all Escrow Items at any time by a notice given in accordance with
Section 15 and, upon such revocation, Borrower shall pay to Lender all Funds,
and in such amounts, that are then required under this Section 3. Lender may, at any time, collect and hold Funds in an amount (a)
sufficient to permit Lender to apply the Funds at the time specified under
RESPA, and (b) not to exceed the maximum amount a lender can require under
RESPA. Lender shall estimate the amount of Funds due on the basis of current
data and reasonable estimates of expenditures of future Escrow Items or
otherwise in accordance with Applicable Law. The Funds shall be held in an
institution whose deposits are insured by a federal agency, instrumentality, or
entity (including Lender, if Lender is an institution whose deposits are so
insured) or in any Federal Home Loan Bank. Lender shall apply the Funds to pay
the Escrow Items no later than the time specified under RESPA. Lender shall not
charge Borrower for holding and applying the Funds, annually analyzing the
escrow account, or verifying the Escrow Items, unless Lender pays Borrower
interest on the Funds and Applicable Law permits Lender to make such a charge.
Unless an agreement is made in writing or Applicable Law requires interest to
be paid on the Funds, Lender shall not be required to pay Borrower any interest
or earnings on the Funds. Borrower and Lender can agree in writing, however,
that interest shall be paid on the Funds. Lender shall give to Borrower,
without charge, an annual accounting of the Funds as required by RESPA. If there is a surplus of Funds held in escrow, as defined under RESPA,
Lender shall account to Borrower for the excess funds in accordance with RESPA.
If there is a shortage of Funds held in escrow, as defined under RESPA, Lender
shall notify Borrower as required by RESPA, and Borrower shall pay to Lender
the amount necessary to make up the shortage in accordance with RESPA, but in
no more than 12 monthly payments. If there is a deficiency of Funds held in
escrow, as defined under RESPA, Lender shall notify Borrower as required by
RESPA, and Borrower shall pay to Lender the amount necessary to make up the
deficiency in accordance with RESPA, but in no more than 12 monthly payments. Upon payment in full of all sums secured by this Security Instrument,
Lender shall promptly refund to Borrower any Funds held by Lender. 4.
Charges; Liens. Borrower shall pay all taxes, assessments, charges,
fines, and impositions attributable to the Property which can attain priority
over this Security Instrument, leasehold payments or ground rents on the
Property, if any, and Community Association Dues, Fees, and Assessments, if
any. To the extent that these items are Escrow Items, Borrower shall pay them
in the manner provided in Section 3. Borrower shall promptly discharge any lien which has priority over this
Security Instrument unless Borrower: (a) agrees in writing to the payment of
the obligation secured by the lien in a manner acceptable to Lender, but only
so long as Borrower is performing such agreement; (b) contests the lien in good
faith by, or defends against enforcement of the lien in, legal proceedings
which in Lender's opinion operate to prevent the enforcement of the lien while
those proceedings are pending, but only until such proceedings are concluded;
or (c) secures from the holder of the lien an agreement satisfactory to Lender
subordinating the lien to this Security Instrument. If Lender determines that
any part of the Property is subject to a lien which can attain priority over
this Security Instrument, Lender may give Borrower a notice identifying the
lien. Within 10 days of the date on which that notice is given, Borrower shall
satisfy the lien or take one or more of the actions set forth above in this
Section 4. Lender may require Borrower to pay a one-time charge for a real estate
tax verification and/or reporting service used by Lender in connection with
this Loan. 5. Property
Insurance. Borrower shall keep the improvements now existing
or hereafter erected on the Property insured against loss by fire, hazards
included within the term "extended coverage," and any other hazards
including, but not limited to, earthquakes and floods, for which Lender
requires insurance. This insurance shall be maintained in the amounts
(including deductible levels) and for the periods that Lender requires. What
Lender requires pursuant to the preceding sentences can change during the term
of the Loan. The insurance carrier providing the insurance shall be chosen by
Borrower subject to Lender's right to disapprove Borrower's choice, which right
shall not be exercised unreasonably. Lender may require Borrower to pay, in
connection with this Loan, either: (a) a one-time charge for flood zone
determination, certification and tracking services; or (b) a one-time charge
for flood zone determination and certification services and subsequent charges
each time remappings or similar changes occur which reasonably might affect
such determination or certification. Borrower shall also be responsible for the
payment of any fees imposed by the Federal Emergency Management Agency in
connection with the review of any flood zone determination resulting from an objection
by Borrower. If Borrower fails to maintain any of the coverages described above,
Lender may obtain insurance coverage, at Lender's option and Borrower's
expense. Lender is under no obligation to purchase any particular type or
amount of coverage. Therefore, such coverage shall cover Lender, but might or
might not protect Borrower, Borrower's equity in the Property, or the contents
of the Property, against any risk, hazard or liability and might provide
greater or lesser coverage than was previously in effect. Borrower acknowledges that the cost of the insurance coverage so obtained
might significantly exceed the cost of insurance that Borrower could have
obtained. Any amounts disbursed by Lender under this Section 5 shall become
additional debt of Borrower secured by this Security Instrument. These amounts
shall bear interest at the Note rate from the date of disbursement and shall be
payable, with such interest, upon notice from Lender to Borrower requesting
payment. All insurance policies required by Lender and renewals of such policies
shall be subject to Lender's right to disapprove such policies, shall include a
standard mortgage clause, and shall name Lender as mortgagee and/or as an
additional loss payee and Borrower further agrees to generally assign rights to
insurance proceeds to the holder of the Note up to the amount of the
outstanding loan balance. Lender shall have the right to hold the policies and
renewal certificates. If Lender requires, Borrower shall promptly give to
Lender all receipts of paid premiums and renewal notices. If Borrower obtains
any form of insurance coverage, not otherwise required by Lender, for damage
to, or destruction of, the Property, such policy shall include a standard
mortgage clause and shall name Lender as mortgagee and/or as an additional loss
payee and Borrower further agrees to generally assign rights to insurance
proceeds to the holder of the Note up to the amount of the outstanding loan
balance. 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. Unless Lender and Borrower otherwise agree in writing,
any insurance proceeds, whether or not the underlying insurance was required by
Lender, shall be applied to restoration or repair of the Property, if the
restoration or repair is economically feasible and Lender's security is not
lessened. During such repair and restoration period, Lender shall have the right to
hold such insurance proceeds until Lender has had an opportunity to inspect
such Property to ensure the work has been completed to Lender's satisfaction,
provided that such inspection shall be undertaken promptly. Lender may disburse
proceeds for the repairs and restoration in a single payment or in a series of
progress payments as the work is completed. Unless an agreement is made in
writing or Applicable Law requires interest to be paid on such insurance
proceeds, Lender shall not be required to pay Borrower any interest or earnings
on such proceeds. Fees for public adjusters, or other third parties, retained
by Borrower shall not be paid out of the insurance proceeds and shall be the
sole obligation of Borrower. If the restoration or repair is not economically
feasible or Lender's security would be lessened, the insurance proceeds shall
be applied to the sums secured by this Security Instrument, whether or not then
due, with the excess, if any, paid to Borrower. Such insurance proceeds shall
be applied in the order provided for in Section 2. If Borrower abandons the Property, Lender may file, negotiate and settle
any available insurance claim and related matters. If Borrower does not respond
within 30 days to a notice from Lender that the insurance carrier has offered to
settle a claim, then Lender may negotiate and settle the claim. The 30-day
period will begin when the notice is given. In either event, or if Lender
acquires the Property under Section 22 or otherwise, Borrower hereby assigns to
Lender (a) Borrower's rights to any insurance proceeds in an amount not to
exceed the amounts unpaid under the Note or this Security Instrument, and (b)
any other of Borrower's rights (other than the right to any refund of unearned
premiums paid by Borrower) under all insurance policies covering the Property,
insofar as such rights are applicable to the coverage of the Property. Lender
may use the insurance proceeds either to repair or restore the Property or to
pay amounts unpaid under the Note or this Security Instrument, whether or not
then due. 6.
Occupancy. Borrower shall occupy, establish, and use the
Property as Borrower's principal residence within 60 days after the execution
of this Security Instrument and shall continue to occupy the Property as
Borrower's principal residence for at least one year after the date of
occupancy, unless Lender otherwise agrees in writing, which consent shall not
be unreasonably withheld, or unless extenuating circumstances exist which are
beyond Borrower's control. 7.
Preservation, Maintenance and Protection of the Property; Inspections. Borrower
shall not destroy, damage or impair the Property, allow the Property to
deteriorate or commit waste on the Property. Whether or not Borrower is
residing in the Property, Borrower shall maintain the Property in order to
prevent the Property from deteriorating or decreasing in value due to its
condition. Unless it is determined pursuant to Section 5 that repair or
restoration is not economically feasible, Borrower shall promptly repair the
Property if damaged to avoid further deterioration or damage. If insurance or
condemnation proceeds are paid in connection with damage to, or the taking of,
the Property, Borrower shall be responsible for repairing or restoring the
Property only if Lender has released proceeds for such purposes. Lender may
disburse proceeds for the repairs and restoration in a single payment or in a
series of progress payments as the work is completed. If the insurance or
condemnation proceeds are not sufficient to repair or restore the Property,
Borrower is not relieved of Borrower's obligation for the completion of such
repair or restoration. Lender or its agent may make reasonable entries upon and inspections of
the Property. If it has reasonable cause, Lender may inspect the interior of
the improvements on the Property. Lender shall give Borrower notice at the time
of or prior to such an interior inspection specifying such reasonable cause. 8. Borrower's Loan Application. Borrower shall be in default if, during the Loan application process, Borrower or any persons or entities acting at the direction of Borrower or with Borrower's knowledge or consent gave materially false, misleading, or inaccurate information or statements to Lender (or failed to provide Lender with material information) in connection with the Loan. Material representations include, but are not limited to, representations concerning Borrower's occupancy of the Property as Borrower's principal residence. 9.
Protection of Lender's Interest in the Property and Rights Under this Security
Instrument. If (a) Borrower fails to perform the covenants and
agreements contained in this Security Instrument, (b) there is a legal
proceeding that might significantly affect Lender's interest in the Property
and/or rights under this Security Instrument (such as a proceeding in
bankruptcy, probate, for condemnation or forfeiture, for enforcement of a lien
which may attain priority over this Security Instrument or to enforce laws or
regulations), or (c) Borrower has abandoned the Property, then Lender may do
and pay for whatever is reasonable or appropriate to protect Lender's interest
in the Property and rights under this Security Instrument, including protecting
and/or assessing the value of the Property, and securing and/or repairing the
Property. Lender's actions can include, but are not limited to: (a) paying any
sums secured by a lien which has priority over this Security Instrument; (b)
appearing in court; and (c) paying reasonable attorneys' fees to protect its
interest in the Property and/or rights under this Security Instrument,
including its secured position in a bankruptcy proceeding. Securing the
Property includes, but is not limited to, entering the Property to make
repairs, change locks, replace or board up doors and windows, drain water from
pipes, eliminate building or other code violations or dangerous conditions, and
have utilities turned on or off. Although Lender may take action under this
Section 9, Lender does not have to do so and is not under any duty or obligation
to do so. It is agreed that Lender incurs no liability for not taking any or
all actions authorized under this Section 9. Any amounts disbursed by Lender under this Section 9 shall become
additional debt of Borrower secured by this Security Instrument. These amounts
shall bear interest at the Note rate from the date of disbursement and shall be
payable, with such interest, upon notice from Lender to Borrower requesting
payment. If this Security Instrument is on a leasehold, Borrower shall comply with
all the provisions of the lease. If Borrower acquires fee title to the
Property, the leasehold and the fee title shall not merge unless Lender agrees
to the merger in writing. 10.
Mortgage Insurance. If Lender required Mortgage Insurance as a
condition of making the Loan, Borrower shall pay the premiums required to
maintain the Mortgage Insurance in effect. If, for any reason, the Mortgage
Insurance coverage required by Lender ceases to be available from the mortgage
insurer that previously provided such insurance and Borrower was required to
make separately designated payments toward the premiums for Mortgage Insurance,
Borrower shall pay the premiums required to obtain coverage substantially
equivalent to the Mortgage Insurance previously in effect, at a cost
substantially equivalent to the cost to Borrower of the Mortgage Insurance
previously in effect, from an alternate mortgage insurer selected by Lender. If
substantially equivalent Mortgage Insurance coverage is not available, Borrower
shall continue to pay to Lender the amount of the separately designated
payments that were due when the insurance coverage ceased to be in effect.
Lender will accept, use and retain these payments as a non-refundable loss
reserve in lieu of Mortgage Insurance. Such loss reserve shall be
non-refundable, notwithstanding the fact that the Loan is ultimately paid in
full, and Lender shall not be required to pay Borrower any interest or earnings
on such loss reserve. Lender can no longer require loss reserve payments if
Mortgage Insurance coverage (in the amount and for the period that Lender
requires) provided by an insurer selected by Lender again becomes available, is
obtained, and Lender requires separately designated payments toward the
premiums for Mortgage Insurance. If Lender required Mortgage Insurance as a
condition of making the Loan and Borrower was required to make separately
designated payments toward the premiums for Mortgage Insurance, Borrower shall
pay the premiums required to maintain Mortgage Insurance in effect, or to
provide a non-refundable loss reserve, until Lender's requirement for Mortgage
Insurance ends in accordance with any written agreement between Borrower and
Lender providing for such termination or until termination is required by
Applicable Law. Nothing in this Section 10 affects Borrower's obligation to pay
interest at the rate provided in the Note. Mortgage Insurance reimburses Lender (or any entity that purchases the
Note) for certain losses it may incur if Borrower does not repay the Loan as agreed.
Borrower is not a party to the Mortgage Insurance. Mortgage insurers evaluate their total risk on all such insurance in
force from time to time, and may enter into agreements with other parties that
share or modify their risk, or reduce losses. These agreements are on terms and
conditions that are satisfactory to the mortgage insurer and the other party
(or parties) to these agreements. These agreements may require the mortgage
insurer to make payments using any source of funds that the mortgage insurer
may have available (which may include funds obtained from Mortgage Insurance
premiums). As a result of these agreements, Lender, any purchaser of the Note,
another insurer, any reinsurer, any other entity, or any affiliate of any of
the foregoing, may receive (directly or indirectly) amounts that derive from
(or might be characterized as) a portion of Borrower's payments for Mortgage
Insurance, in exchange for sharing or modifying the mortgage insurer's risk, or
reducing losses. If such agreement provides that an affiliate of Lender takes a
share of the insurer's risk in exchange for a share of the premiums paid to the
insurer, the arrangement is often termed "captive reinsurance."
Further: (a) Any such agreements will not affect the amounts that Borrower has
agreed to pay for Mortgage Insurance, or any other terms of the Loan. Such
agreements will not increase the amount Borrower will owe for Mortgage
Insurance, and they will not entitle Borrower to any refund. (b) Any such agreements will not affect the rights Borrower has -- if any
-- with respect to the Mortgage Insurance under the Homeowners Protection Act
of 1998 or any other law. These rights may include the right to receive certain
disclosures, to request and obtain cancellation of the Mortgage Insurance, to
have the Mortgage Insurance terminated automatically, and/or to receive a
refund of any Mortgage Insurance premiums that were unearned at the time of
such cancellation or termination. 11.
Assignment of Miscellaneous Proceeds; Forfeiture. All Miscellaneous
Proceeds are hereby assigned to and shall be paid to Lender. If the Property is
damaged, such Miscellaneous Proceeds shall be applied to restoration or repair
of the Property, if the restoration or repair is economically feasible and
Lender's security is not lessened. During such repair and restoration period,
Lender shall have the right to hold such Miscellaneous Proceeds until Lender
has had an opportunity to inspect such Property to ensure the work has been
completed to Lender's satisfaction, provided that such inspection shall be
undertaken promptly. Lender may pay for the repairs and restoration in a single
disbursement or in a series of progress payments as the work is completed.
Unless an agreement is made in writing or Applicable Law requires interest to
be paid on such Miscellaneous Proceeds, Lender shall not be required to pay
Borrower any interest or earnings on such Miscellaneous Proceeds. If the
restoration or repair is not economically feasible or Lender's security would
be lessened, the Miscellaneous Proceeds shall be applied to the sums secured by
this Security Instrument, whether or not then due, with the excess, if any,
paid to Borrower. Such Miscellaneous Proceeds shall be applied in the order
provided for in Section 2. In the event of a total taking, destruction, or loss
in value of the Property, the Miscellaneous Proceeds shall be applied to the
sums secured by this Security Instrument, whether or not then due, with the
excess, if any, paid to Borrower. In the event of a partial taking, destruction, or loss in value of the
Property in which the fair market value of the Property immediately before the
partial taking, destruction, or loss in value is equal to or greater than the
amount of the sums secured by this Security Instrument immediately before the
partial taking, destruction, or loss in value, unless Borrower and Lender
otherwise agree in writing, the sums secured by this Security Instrument shall
be reduced by the amount of the Miscellaneous Proceeds multiplied by the
following fraction: (a) the total amount of the sums secured immediately before
the partial taking, destruction, or loss in value divided by (b) the fair
market value of the Property immediately before the partial taking,
destruction, or loss in value. Any balance shall be paid to Borrower. In the event of a partial taking, destruction, or loss in value of the
Property in which the fair market value of the Property immediately before the
partial taking, destruction, or loss in value is less than the amount of the
sums secured immediately before the partial taking, destruction, or loss in
value, unless Borrower and Lender otherwise agree in writing, the Miscellaneous
Proceeds shall be applied to the sums secured by this Security Instrument
whether or not the sums are then due. If the Property is abandoned by Borrower, or if, after notice by Lender
to Borrower that the Opposing Party (as defined in the next sentence) offers to
make an award to settle a claim for damages, Borrower fails to respond to
Lender within 30 days after the date the notice is given, Lender is authorized
to collect and apply the Miscellaneous Proceeds either to restoration or repair
of the Property or to the sums secured by this Security Instrument, whether or
not then due. "Opposing Party" means the third party that owes
Borrower Miscellaneous Proceeds or the party against whom Borrower has a right
of action in regard to Miscellaneous Proceeds. Borrower shall be in default if any action or proceeding, whether civil or
criminal, is begun that, in Lender's judgment, could result in forfeiture of
the Property or other material impairment of Lender's interest in the Property
or rights under this Security Instrument. Borrower can cure such a default and,
if acceleration has occurred, reinstate as provided in Section 19, by causing
the action or proceeding to be dismissed with a ruling that, in Lender's
judgment, precludes forfeiture of the Property or other material impairment of
Lender's interest in the Property or rights under this Security Instrument. The
proceeds of any award or claim for damages that are attributable to the
impairment of Lender's interest in the Property are hereby assigned and shall
be paid to Lender. All Miscellaneous Proceeds that are not applied to restoration
or repair of the Property shall be applied in the order provided for in Section
2. 12.
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 Security Instrument granted by Lender to Borrower or any Successor in
Interest of Borrower shall not operate to release the liability of Borrower or
any Successors in Interest of Borrower. Lender shall not be required to
commence proceedings against any Successor in Interest of Borrower or to refuse
to extend time for payment or otherwise modify amortization of the sums secured
by this Security Instrument by reason of any demand made by the original
Borrower or any Successors in Interest of Borrower. Any forbearance by Lender
in exercising any right or remedy including, without limitation, Lender's
acceptance of payments from third persons, entities or Successors in Interest
of Borrower or in amounts less than the amount then due, shall not be a waiver
of or preclude the exercise of any right or remedy. 13.
Joint and Several Liability; Co-signers; Successors and Assigns Bound. Borrower
covenants and agrees that Borrower's obligations and liability shall be joint
and several. However, any Borrower who co-signs this Security Instrument but
does not execute the Note (a "co-signer"): (a) is co-signing this
Security Instrument only to mortgage, grant and convey the co-signer's interest
in the Property under the terms of this Security Instrument; (b) is not
personally obligated to pay the sums secured by this Security Instrument; and
(c) agrees that Lender and any other Borrower can agree to extend, modify,
forbear or make any accommodations with regard to the terms of this Security
Instrument or the Note without the co-signer's consent. Subject to the
provisions of Section 18, any Successor in Interest of Borrower who assumes
Borrower's obligations under this Security Instrument in writing, and is
approved by Lender, shall obtain all of Borrower's rights and benefits under
this Security Instrument. Borrower shall not be released from Borrower's
obligations and liability under this Security Instrument unless Lender agrees
to such release in writing. The covenants and agreements of this Security
Instrument shall bind (except as provided in Section 20) and benefit the
successors and assigns of Lender. 14. Loan
Charges. Lender may charge Borrower fees for services performed in connection
with Borrower's default, for the purpose of protecting Lender's interest in the
Property and rights under this Security Instrument, including, but not limited
to, attorneys' fees, property inspection and valuation fees. In regard to any
other fees, the absence of express authority in this Security Instrument to
charge a specific fee to Borrower shall not be construed as a prohibition on
the charging of such fee. Lender may not charge fees that are expressly
prohibited by this Security Instrument or by Applicable Law. If the Loan is
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 without any prepayment charge (whether or
not a prepayment charge is provided for under the Note). Borrower's acceptance
of any such refund made by direct payment to Borrower will constitute a waiver
of any right of action Borrower might have arising out of such overcharge. 15.
Notices. All notices given by Borrower or Lender in connection with this Security
Instrument must be in writing. Any notice to Borrower in connection with this
Security Instrument shall be deemed to have been given to Borrower when mailed
by first class mail or when actually delivered to Borrower's notice address if
sent by other means. Notice to any one Borrower shall constitute notice to all
Borrowers unless Applicable Law expressly requires otherwise. The notice
address shall be the Property Address unless Borrower has designated a
substitute notice address by notice to Lender. Borrower shall promptly notify
Lender of Borrower's change of address. If Lender specifies a procedure for
reporting Borrower's change of address, then Borrower shall only report a
change of address through that specified procedure. There may be only one
designated notice address under this Security Instrument at any one time. Any
notice to Lender shall be given by delivering it or by mailing it by first
class mail to Lender's address stated herein unless Lender has designated
another address by notice to Borrower. Any notice in connection with this
Security Instrument shall not be deemed to have been given to Lender until
actually received by Lender. If any notice required by this Security Instrument
is also required under Applicable Law, the Applicable Law requirement will
satisfy the corresponding requirement under this Security Instrument. 16.
Governing Law; Severability; Rules of Construction. This
Security Instrument shall be governed by federal law and the law of the
jurisdiction in which the Property is located. All rights and obligations
contained in this Security Instrument are subject to any requirements and
limitations of Applicable Law. Applicable Law might explicitly or implicitly
allow the parties to agree by contract or it might be silent, but such silence
shall not be construed as a prohibition against agreement by contract. In the
event that any provision or clause of this Security Instrument or the Note
conflicts with Applicable Law, such conflict shall not affect other provisions
of this Security Instrument or the Note which can be given effect without the conflicting
provision. As used in this Security Instrument: (a) words of the masculine gender
shall mean and include corresponding neuter words or words of the feminine
gender; (b) words in the singular shall mean and include the plural and vice
versa; and (c) the word "may" gives sole discretion without any
obligation to take any action. 17.
Borrower's Copy. Borrower shall be given one copy of the Note and of
this Security Instrument. 18.
Transfer of the Property or a Beneficial Interest in Borrower. As used
in this Section 18, "Interest in the Property" means any legal or
beneficial interest in the Property, including, but not limited to, those
beneficial interests transferred in a bond for deed, contract for deed,
installment sales contract or escrow agreement, the intent of which is the
transfer of title by Borrower at a future date to a purchaser. If all or any part of the Property or any Interest in the Property is
sold or transferred (or if Borrower is not a natural person and a beneficial
interest in Borrower is sold or transferred) without Lender's prior written
consent, Lender may require immediate payment in full of all sums secured by
this Security Instrument. However, this option shall not be exercised by Lender
if such exercise is prohibited by Applicable Law. 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 given in accordance with Section 15 within which
Borrower must pay all sums secured by this Security Instrument. If Borrower
fails to pay these sums prior to the expiration of this period, Lender may
invoke any remedies permitted by this Security Instrument without further
notice or demand on Borrower. 19.
Borrower's Right to Reinstate After Acceleration. If
Borrower meets certain conditions, Borrower shall have the right to have
enforcement of this Security Instrument discontinued at any time prior to the
earliest of: (a) five days before sale of the Property pursuant to any power of
sale contained in this Security Instrument; (b) such other period as Applicable
Law might specify for the termination of Borrower's right to reinstate; or (c)
entry of a judgment enforcing this Security Instrument. Those conditions are
that Borrower: (a) pays Lender all sums which then would be due under this
Security Instrument 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 Security Instrument, including, but not limited to,
reasonable attorneys' fees, property inspection and valuation fees, and other
fees incurred for the purpose of protecting Lender's interest in the Property
and rights under this Security Instrument; and (d) takes such action as Lender
may reasonably require to assure that Lender's interest in the Property and
rights under this Security Instrument, and Borrower's obligation to pay the
sums secured by this Security Instrument, shall continue unchanged. Lender may
require that Borrower pay such reinstatement sums and expenses in one or more
of the following forms, as selected by Lender: (a) cash; (b) money order; (c)
certified check, bank check, treasurer's check or cashier's check, provided any
such check is drawn upon an institution whose deposits are insured by a federal
agency, instrumentality or entity; or (d) Electronic Funds Transfer. Upon reinstatement by Borrower, this Security Instrument and obligations
secured hereby shall remain fully effective as if no acceleration had occurred.
However, this right to reinstate shall not apply in the case of acceleration
under Section 18. 20.
Neither Borrower nor Lender may commence, join, or be joined to any
judicial action (as either an individual litigant or the member of a class)
that arises from the other party's actions pursuant to this Security Instrument
or that alleges that the other party has breached any provision of, or any duty
owed by reason of, this Security Instrument, until such Borrower or Lender has
notified the other party (with such notice given in compliance with the
requirements of Section 15) of such alleged breach and afforded the other party
hereto a reasonable period after the giving of such notice to take corrective
action. If Applicable Law provides a time period which must elapse before
certain action can be taken, that time period will be deemed to be reasonable for
purposes of this paragraph. The notice of acceleration and opportunity to cure
given to Borrower pursuant to Section 22 and the notice of acceleration given
to Borrower pursuant to Section 18 shall be deemed to satisfy the notice and
opportunity to take corrective action provisions of this Section 20. 21.
Hazardous Substances. As used in this Section 21: (a) "Hazardous
Substances" are those substances defined as toxic or hazardous substances,
pollutants, or wastes by Environmental Law and the following substances:
gasoline, kerosene, other flammable or toxic petroleum products, toxic
pesticides and herbicides, volatile solvents, materials containing asbestos or
formaldehyde, and radioactive materials; (b) "Environmental Law"
means federal laws and laws of the jurisdiction where the Property is located
that relate to health, safety or environmental protection; (c)
"Environmental Cleanup" includes any response action, remedial
action, or removal action, as defined in Environmental Law; and (d) an
"Environmental Condition" means a condition that can cause,
contribute to, or otherwise trigger an Environmental Cleanup. Borrower shall not cause or permit the presence, use, disposal, storage,
or release of any Hazardous Substances, or threaten to release any Hazardous
Substances, on or in the Property. Borrower shall not do, nor allow anyone else
to do, anything affecting the Property (a) that is in violation of any
Environmental Law, (b) which creates an Environmental Condition, or (c) which,
due to the presence, use, or release of a Hazardous Substance, creates a
condition that adversely affects the value of the Property. The preceding two
sentences shall not apply to the presence, use, or storage on the Property of
small quantities of Hazardous Substances that are generally recognized to be
appropriate to normal residential uses and to maintenance of the Property
(including, but not limited to, hazardous substances in consumer products). Borrower shall promptly give Lender written notice of (a) 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, (b) any
Environmental Condition, including but not limited to, any spilling, leaking,
discharge, release or threat of release of any Hazardous Substance, and (c) any
condition caused by the presence, use or release of a Hazardous Substance which
adversely affects the value of the Property. If Borrower learns, or is notified
by any governmental or regulatory authority, or any private party, 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 Environmental Law. Nothing herein shall create any obligation
on Lender for an Environmental Cleanup. 22.
Acceleration; Remedies. Lender shall give notice to Borrower prior to
acceleration following Borrower's breach of any covenant or agreement in this
Security Instrument (but not prior to acceleration under Section 18 unless
Applicable Law provides otherwise). 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;
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 Security
Instrument 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 non-existence of a default or any other defense of
Borrower to 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 all sums secured by this Security Instrument without further
demand and may invoke the power of sale and any other remedies permitted by
Applicable Law. Lender shall be entitled to collect all expenses incurred in
pursuing the remedies provided in this Section 22, including, but not limited
to, reasonable attorneys' fees and costs of title evidence. If Lender invokes the power of sale, Lender shall execute or cause
Trustee to execute a written notice of the occurrence of an event of default
and of Lender's election to cause the Property to be sold. Trustee shall cause
this notice to be recorded in each county in which any part of the Property is
located. Lender or Trustee shall mail copies of the notice as prescribed by
Applicable Law to Borrower and to the other persons prescribed by Applicable
Law. Trustee shall give public notice of sale to the persons and in the manner
prescribed by Applicable Law. After the time required by Applicable Law,
Trustee, without demand on Borrower, shall sell the Property at public auction
to the highest bidder at the time and place and under the terms designated in
the notice of sale in one or more parcels and in any order Trustee determines.
Trustee may postpone sale of all or any parcel of the Property by public
announcement at the time and place of any previously scheduled sale. Lender or
its designee may purchase the Property at any sale. Trustee shall deliver to the purchaser Trustee's deed conveying the
Property without any covenant or warranty, expressed or implied. The recitals
in the Trustee's deed shall be prima facie evidence of the truth of the
statements made therein. Trustee shall apply the proceeds of the sale in the
following order: (a) to all expenses of the sale, including, but not limited
to, reasonable Trustee's and attorneys' fees; (b) to all sums secured by this Security
Instrument; and (c) any excess to the person or persons legally entitled to it. 23. Reconveyance. Upon payment of all sums secured by this Security Instrument, Lender shall request Trustee to reconvey the Property and shall surrender this Security Instrument and all notes evidencing debt secured by this Security Instrument to Trustee. Trustee shall reconvey the Property without warranty to the person or persons legally entitled to it. Lender may charge such person or persons a reasonable fee for reconveying the Property, but only if the fee is paid to a third party (such as the Trustee) for services rendered and the charging of the fee is permitted under Applicable Law. If the fee charged does not exceed the fee set by Applicable Law, the fee is conclusively presumed to be reasonable. 24.
Substitute Trustee. Lender, at its option, may from time to time
appoint a successor trustee to any Trustee appointed hereunder by an instrument
executed and acknowledged by Lender and recorded in the office of the Recorder
of the county in which the Property is located. The instrument shall contain
the name of the original Lender, Trustee and Borrower, the book and page where
this Security Instrument is recorded and the name and address of the successor
trustee. Without conveyance of the Property, the successor trustee shall
succeed to all the title, powers and duties conferred upon the Trustee herein
and by Applicable Law. This procedure for substitution of trustee shall govern
to the exclusion of all other provisions for substitution. 25.
Statement of Obligation Fee. Lender may collect a fee not to
exceed the maximum amount permitted by Applicable Law for furnishing the
statement of obligation as provided by state law. BY SIGNING BELOW, Borrower accepts and agrees to the terms and covenants
contained in this Security Instrument and in any Rider executed by Borrower and
recorded with it.
