10.1.1. Declare the Note, all interest accrued and unpaid thereon and all other Obligations to be immediately due and payable and the same shall thereupon become immediately due and payable without presentment, demand for payment, protest or notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived.

10.1.2. Institute any proceeding or proceedings to enforce the Obligations and any Liens of Lender.

10.1.3. Take possession of the Collateral, and for that purpose, so far as Borrower may give authority therefor, enter upon any premises on which the Collateral or any part thereof may be situated and remove the same therefrom without any liability for suit, action or other proceeding, and require Borrower, at Borrower’s expense, to assemble and deliver the Collateral to such place or places as Lender may designate.

10.1.4. Operate, manage and control the Collateral (including use of the Collateral and any other property or assets of Borrower in order to continue or complete performance of Borrower’s obligations under any contracts of Borrower), or permit the Collateral or any portion thereof to remain idle or store the same, and collect all rents and revenues therefrom and sell or otherwise dispose of any or all of the Collateral upon such terms and under such conditions as Lender, in its sole discretion, may determine, and purchase or acquire any of the Collateral at any such sale or other disposition, all to the extent permitted by applicable law.

10.1.5. Enforce Borrower’s rights against any account debtors and other obligors.

10.1.6. Cease making advances hereunder and under any other commitments or credit accommodations of Lender to Borrower and stop and retract the making of any advance hereunder or thereunder which may have been requested by Borrower.

10.1.7. Lender may apply any payments received from Borrower, Guarantor or any other Loan Party, to the Notes, or either of them, at Lender’s discretion, notwithstanding any designation allocated by the payer with respect thereto

10.2. Power of Attorney. Effective upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Borrower hereby designates and appoints Lender and its designees as attorney-in-fact of Borrower, irrevocably and with power of substitution, with authority to endorse Borrower’s name on any notes, acceptances, checks, drafts, money orders, instruments or other evidences of payment or proceeds of the Collateral that may come into Lender’s possession; to execute proofs of claim and loss; to adjust and compromise any claims under insurance policies; and to perform all other acts necessary and advisable, in Lender’s sole discretion, to carry out and enforce this Agreement and the Loan Documents. All acts of said attorney or designee are hereby ratified and approved by Borrower and said attorney or designee shall not be liable for any acts of commission or omission nor for any error of judgment or mistake of fact or law. This power of attorney is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable so long as any of the Obligations remain unpaid or unperformed or there exists any commitment by Lender which could give rise to any Obligations.

10.3. Costs and Expenses. Borrower agrees to pay to Lender on demand the amount of all expenses paid or incurred by Lender in consulting with counsel concerning any of its rights hereunder, under the Loan Documents or under applicable law, all expenses, including attorneys’ fees and court costs paid or incurred by Lender in exercising or enforcing any of its rights hereunder, under the Loan Documents or under applicable law together with interest on all such expenses paid by Lender at the highest rate and calculated in the manner provided in the Note. The provisions of this Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of all other Obligations.

If Lender institutes any suit or action to enforce any of the terms of this Agreement or any other related loan documents, Lender shall be entitled to recover such sum as the court may adjudge reasonable as attorneys’ fees at trial and upon any appeal.  Whether or not any court action occurs, and to the extent not prohibited by law, all reasonable expenses Lender incurs that in Lender’s opinion are necessary at any time for the protection of its interest or the enforcement of its rights shall become a part of the Obligations payable on demand and shall bear interest at the rate accruing under the Note secured hereby from the date of the expenditure until repaid in full.  Expenses covered by this paragraph include, without limitation, subject to any limits under applicable law, Lender’s attorneys’ fees and Lender’s legal expenses, whether or not there is a lawsuit, including attorneys’ fees and expenses for bankruptcy proceedings (including efforts to modify or vacate any automatic stay or injunction), appeals, and any anticipated post-judgment collection services, the cost of searching records, obtaining title reports (including foreclosure reports), surveyors’ reports, and appraisal fees and title insurance, to the extent permitted by applicable law.  Borrower also shall pay any court costs, in addition to all other sums provided by applicable law.  It is the intention of Lender and Borrower that all of the foregoing shall be preserved post-judgment.

11. MISCELLANEOUS.

11.1. Performance for Borrower. Borrower agrees and hereby authorizes that Lender may, in Lender’s sole discretion, but Lender shall not be obligated to, whether or not an Event of Default shall have occurred, advance funds on behalf of Borrower, without prior notice to Borrower, in order to insure Borrower’s compliance with any covenant, warranty, representation or agreement of Borrower made in or pursuant to this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents, to continue or complete, or cause to be continued or completed, performance of Borrower’s obligations under any contracts of Borrower, to cover overdrafts in any checking or other accounts of Borrower at Lender or to preserve or protect any right or interest of Lender in the Collateral or under or pursuant to this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents, including, without limitation, the payment of any insurance premiums or taxes and the satisfaction or discharge of any judgment or any Lien upon the Collateral or other property or assets of Borrower; provided, however, that the making of any such advance by Lender shall not constitute a waiver by Lender of any Event of Default with respect to which such advance is made nor relieve Borrower of any such Event of Default. Borrower shall pay to Lender upon demand all such advances made by Lender with interest thereon at the highest rate and calculated in the manner provided in the Note. All such advances shall be deemed to be included in the Obligations and secured by the security interest granted Lender hereunder; provided, however, that the provisions of this Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement and Lender’s security interest hereunder and the payment of all other Obligations.

11.2. Expenses. Whether or not any of the transactions contemplated hereby shall be consummated, Borrower agrees to pay to Lender on demand the amount of all expenses paid or incurred by Lender (including the fees and expenses of its counsel) in connection with the preparation of all written commitments of Lender antedating this Agreement, this Agreement and the Loan Documents and all documents and instruments referred to herein and all expenses paid or incurred by Lender in connection with the filing or recordation of all financing statements and instruments as may be required by Lender at the time of, or subsequent to, the execution of this Agreement, including, without limitation, all documentary stamps, recordation and transfer taxes and other costs and taxes incident to recordation of any document or instrument in connection herewith. Borrower shall pay Lender $25.00 for each response to Borrower’s request for an accounting or confirmation of a list of Collateral or statement of account exceeding one request per 6-month period. Further, Borrower shall pay all reasonable costs, expenses and fees (including without limitation those relating to any appraisals, audits, field examination,, environmental site assessments and reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by Lender in connection with the administration of this Agreement or any other Loan Documents. Borrower agrees to save harmless and indemnify Lender from and against any liability resulting from the failure to pay any required documentary stamps, recordation and transfer taxes, recording costs or any other expenses incurred by Lender in connection with this Agreement. The provisions of this Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement, Lender’s security interest, and the payment of all other Obligations.

11.3. Applications of Payments and Collateral. Except as may be otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement, all Collateral and proceeds of Collateral coming into Lender’s possession and all payments made by any Obligor may be applied by Lender to any of the Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, as Lender shall determine in its sole but reasonable discretion.

11.4. Waivers by Borrower. Borrower hereby waives, to the extent the same may be waived under applicable law: (a) notice of acceptance of this Agreement; (b) all claims, causes of action and rights of Borrower against Lender on account of actions taken or not taken by Lender in the exercise of Lender’s rights or remedies hereunder, under the Loan Documents or under applicable law; (c) all claims of Borrower for failure of Lender to comply with any requirement of applicable law relating to enforcement of Lender’s rights or remedies hereunder, under the Loan Documents or under applicable law; (d) all rights of redemption of Borrower with respect to the Collateral; (e) in the event Lender seeks to repossess any or all of the Collateral by judicial proceedings, any bond(s) or demand(s) for possession which otherwise may be necessary or required; (f) presentment, demand for payment, protest and notice of non-payment and all exemptions; (g) any and all other notices or demands which by applicable law must be given to or made upon Borrower by Lender; (h) settlement, compromise or release of the obligations of any person primarily or secondarily liable upon any of the Obligations; (i) trial by jury in any action or proceeding of any kind or nature in connection with any of the Obligations, this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents; and (j) substitution, impairment, exchange or release of any Collateral for any of the Obligations. Borrower agrees that Lender may exercise any or all of its rights and/or remedies hereunder, under the Loan Documents and under applicable law without resorting to and without regard to any Collateral or sources of liability with respect to any of the Obligations. Upon termination of this Agreement and Lender’s security interest hereunder and payment of all Obligations, within 60 days following Borrower’s request to Lender, Lender shall release control of any security interest in the Collateral perfected by control and Lender shall send Borrower a statement terminating any financing statement filed against the Collateral.

11.5. Waivers by Lender. Neither any failure nor any delay on the part of Lender in exercising any right, power or remedy hereunder, under any of the Loan Documents or under applicable law shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall a single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy.

11.6. Lender’s Setoff. Lender shall have the right, in addition to all other rights and remedies available to it, following an Event of Default, to set off against any Obligations due Lender, any debt owing to Borrower by Lender, including, without limitation, any funds in any checking or other account now or hereafter maintained by Borrower at Lender. Borrower hereby confirms Lender’s right to banker’s lien and setoff, and nothing in this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents shall be deemed a waiver or prohibition of Lender’s right of banker’s lien and setoff.

11.7. Modifications. No modifications or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents, and no consent by Lender to any departure by Borrower therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. No notice to or demand upon Borrower in any case shall entitle Borrower to any other or further notice or demand in the same, similar or other circumstances.

11.8. Notices. Any notice or other communication in connection with this Agreement, if by registered or certified mail, shall be deemed to have been given when received by the party to whom directed, or, if by mail but not registered or certified, when deposited in the mail, postage prepaid, provided that any such notice or communication shall be addressed to a party hereto as provided below (or at such other address as such party shall specify in writing to the other parties hereto):
