The Public Trustee shall then give public notice of the time and place of sale by
advertisement to be published for four weeks (once each week for five successive weeks) in

may think best), together with all the right, title and interest of the Grantor therein, at public
auction at any place as may be specified by statute and designated in the notice of sale.

Grantor without beneficiary's prior written consent, excluding the creation of a lien or
encumbrance subordinate to this Deed of Trust, beneficiary may, at beneficiary's option,

holder of said certificate of purchase shall at once become entitled to the possession, use
and enjoyment of the property aforesaid, and to the rents, issues and profits thereof, from the
accruing of such right and during the pendency of foreclosure proceedings and the period of
redemption, if any. Such possession shall at once be delivered to the holder of said certificate
of purchase on request. Upon refusal, delivery of such possession may be enforced by the
holder of said certificate of purchase by any appropriate civil suit or proceeding. The holder
of said certificate of purchase shall be entitled to a Receiver for said property, and of the
rents, issues and profits thereof, after such default, including the time covered by foreclosure
proceedings and the period of redemption, if any, and shall be entitled thereto as a matter of
right without regard to the solvency or insolvency of the Grantor or of the then owner of said
property and without regard to the value thereof. Such Receiver may be appointed by any
court of competent jurisdiction upon ex parte application and without notice -- notice being
hereby expressly waived -- and all rents, issues and profits, income and revenue therefrom
shall be applied by such Receiver according to the law and the orders and directions of the
court.

and effect of said Agreement or any part thereof, or of a breach or violation of any of the
covenants or agreements herein by the Grantor, the whole of said Obligations hereby
3

holder thereof, become due and payable, and the said property be sold in the manner and
