Mechanics' and Other Liens Except for Permitted Encumbrances, the Company shall not suffer or permit any mechanics' or other Liens to be filed or to exist against the Collateral or any payments paid or payable under the Loan Documents, by reason of work, labor, services or materials supplied or claimed to have been supplied to, for or in connection with the Collateral or to the Company, the Director or anyone holding the Collateral or any part thereof through or under the Company. If any such Lien shall at any time be filed, the Company shall, within thirty (30) days after notice of the filing thereof but subject to the right to contest as herein set forth, cause the same to be discharged of record by payment, deposit, bond, order of a court of competent jurisdiction or otherwise. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall have the right, at the Company's expense and after written notice to the Director, by appropriate proceeding timely instituted and diligently prosecuted, to contest in good faith the validity or the amount of any such Lien. If, however, the Director shall notify the Company that, in the opinion of Independent Counsel, by nonpayment of any such items the lien, pledge or security interest created by this Security Agreement as to any part of the Collateral will be materially affected or the Collateral or any part thereof will be subject to imminent loss or forfeiture, the Company shall promptly cause such Lien to be discharged of record, as herein provided. Should the Company fail to cause such Lien to be discharged or to contest the validity or amount thereof, within the period aforesaid, then, the Director may, but shall be under no obligation to, discharge the same either by paying the claim or by procuring the discharge of such Lien by making a deposit or obtaining a bond, which advances if any shall be paid by the Company to the Director on demand, together with interest thereon at the Interest Rate for Advances from the date thereof, in addition to all other payments to be made by the Company pursuant to the Loan Documents and shall be subject to and secured by this Security Agreement as additional indebtedness in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.8 hereof.
