Non-Judicial Remedies In granting to Secured Party the power to enforce its rights hereunder without prior judicial process or judicial hearing, Debtor expressly waives, renounces and knowingly relinquishes any legal right which might otherwise require Secured Party to enforce its rights by judicial process. Debtor recognizes and concedes that non-judicial remedies are consistent with the usage of trade, are responsive to commercial necessity and are the result of a bargain at arm's length. Nothing herein is intended to prevent Secured Party or Debtor from resorting to judicial process at either party's option.
Judicial Remedies In the event of a breach or threatened breach by the Director of any provision of these restrictions, the Director recognizes the substantial and immediate harm that a breach or threatened breach will impose upon the Bank, and further recognizes that in such event monetary damages may be inadequate to fully protect the Bank. Accordingly, in the event of a breach or threatened breach of this Agreement, the Director consents to the Bank’s entitlement to such ex parte, preliminary, interlocutory, temporary or permanent injunctive, or any other equitable relief, protecting and fully enforcing the Bank’s rights hereunder and preventing the Director from further breaching any of his obligations set forth herein. The Director expressly waives any requirement based on any statute, rule of procedure, or other source that the Bank post a bond as a condition of obtaining any of the above-described remedies. Nothing herein shall be construed as prohibiting the Bank from pursuing any other remedies available to the Bank at law or in equity for such breach or threatened breach, including the recovery of damages from the Director. The Director expressly acknowledges and agrees that: (i) the restrictions set forth in Section 6.4 hereof are reasonable in terms of scope, duration, geographic area, or otherwise, (ii) the protections afforded the Bank in Section 6.4 hereof are necessary to protect its legitimate business interest, (iii) the restrictions set forth in Section 6.4 hereof will not be materially adverse to the Director’s service with the Bank, and (iv) his agreement to observe such restrictions forms a material part of the consideration for this Agreement.

In the event of any such claim for indemnification hereunder resulting from or in connection with any Third Party Claim, the notice to the Shareholder Representative shall specify, if known, the amount of damages asserted by such third party. In the event of any Third Party Claim, the Purchaser shall assume the defense or prosecution of such Third Party Claim and any litigation resulting therefrom (a “Third Party Defense”). Upon the Purchaser’s assumption of the Third Party Defense (i) the Purchaser shall inform the Shareholder Representative of such Third Party Defense (as set forth herein); (ii) the Shareholder Representative may retain separate counsel, at the expense of the Shareholders; (iii) the Purchaser will not consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to the Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Shareholder Representative which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; (iv) the Purchaser shall conduct the Third Party Defense actively and diligently in consultation with the Shareholder Representative and provide copies of all correspondence and related documentation in connection with the Third Party Defense to the Indemnifying Party; and (v) the Indemnifying Party will provide reasonable cooperation in the Third Party Defense to protect the interests of the Indemnified Party.

The Shareholder Representative shall conduct the Third Party Defense actively and diligently, and the Purchaser will provide reasonable cooperation in the Third Party Defense. The Parties will in any event co-operate with each other in dealing with any Claim other than in the event of a conflict of interest, and, other than in the event of a conflict of interest, will allow their respective representatives and advisers reasonable access to all books and records which might be useful for such purpose during normal business hours and at the place where they are normally kept, with full right to make copies thereof or take extracts therefrom. Such books and records shall be subject to a duty of confidentiality except for disclosure necessary for resolving such Claim or otherwise required by applicable law. The Indemnifying Party shall not be authorized to settle or compromise any Claim without the written consent of the Indemnified Party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. 10.4.

The Purchaser may settle, adjust, or compromise any Tax Contest, in the Purchaser’s sole and absolute discretion, without the consent of the Shareholder Representative. However, without the prior written consent of the Shareholder Representative – which consent (i) will not be unreasonably withheld, delayed, or conditioned and (ii) will be deemed to have been given unless the Shareholder Representative objects in writing within thirty (30) days after receipt of a written request for such consent from the Purchaser – no settlement, adjustment, or compromise of any Tax Contest will be determinative of the existence of a claim for indemnification under this Section 10 or the amount of indemnifiable amounts relating to such claim. In the event that the Shareholder Representative consents in writing to (or is deemed to have consented to) any settlement, adjustment, or compromise of any Tax Contest, neither the Shareholder Representative nor any Shareholder will have any power or authority to object under any provision of this Section 10 to the amount of any claim by the Purchaser for indemnification under this Section 10 with respect to such settlement, adjustment, or compromise. 10.5. Other than with respect to a specific Shareholder for such Shareholder’s Shareholder Fraud Event, the remedies provided in this Section 10 shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of the Purchaser, or any of their Affiliates for any Claims or Damages resulting from the Transaction, except that each Party shall be entitled to injunctive relief to enjoin the breach or threatened breach of any provisions of this Agreement and the specific performance by the other of its obligations hereunder. 10.6. The representation and warranties of the Company and the Shareholders (read together with the disclosure schedules) and the rights of the Purchaser (and its directors, employees and advisors) to indemnification under this Section 10 shall not be affected by any examination made for or on behalf of the Purchaser or the knowledge of any of the Purchaser’s officers, directors, employees or agents. It is understood and agreed that if the Company suffers, incurs or otherwise becomes subject to any Damages as a result of or in connection with any inaccuracy in or breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or obligation (read together with the disclosure schedules) herein, then (without limiting any of the rights of the Purchaser as an Indemnified Party but without double counting and without providing for diminution in value) the Purchaser shall also be deemed, by virtue of its ownership of the shares of the Company, to have incurred Damages as a result of and in connection with such inaccuracy or breach.

In the case of any failure of performance described in clause (a)(ii) of this Section, the Company shall promptly reimburse the Purchaser, any Depositor, as applicable, and each Person responsible for the preparation, execution or filing of any report required to be filed with the Commission with respect to such Securitization Transaction, or for execution of a certification pursuant to Rule 13a-14(d) or Rule 15d-14(d) under the Exchange Act with respect to such Securitization Transaction, for all costs reasonably incurred by each such party in order to obtain the information, report, certification, accountants’ letter or other material not delivered as required by the Company or any Third-Party Originator.
