Failing immediate payment of such amounts, Administrative Agent and Lenders may immediately proceed to enforce their other rights and remedies under the Loan Documents.

This Agreement shall constitute a Loan Document. The breach by Borrower or any other Loan Party of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement in this Agreement, including without limitation any covenant set forth in Section 7 hereof, shall constitute an immediate Event of Default hereunder and under the other Loan Documents after giving effect to any grace or cure periods set forth therein.
