shall be in addition to any other rights, relief or remedies afforded Lender.
Such receiver, in addition to any other rights to which he shall be entitled,
shall be authorized to sell any and all property of the Borrower for the benefit
of Lender pursuant to provisions of Michigan law and the Uniform Commercial Code
of Michigan. In the event of any deficiency, Borrowers shall remain liable
therefor.
12.4 INJUNCTIONS. Borrowers acknowledge that upon the occurrence of a
Matured Event of Default, no remedy at law will provide adequate relief to
Lender; therefore, Borrowers agree that Lender shall be entitled to temporary
and permanent injunctive, or other equitable relief in any such case without
proving actual damages, it being acknowledged that the nature of Borrowers,
business dictates such relief is necessary in order to preserve the rights of
the Lender.
12.5 EXPENSES. Borrowers shall pay to Lender, on demand, any and all
expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees and legal expenses, and outside
consultants' fees reasonably incurred or paid by Lender in connection with the
Agreement and any of the Related Documents, including the preparation or
amendment thereof, or in connection with protecting or enforcing its rights
under this Agreement, the Related Documents or pursuant to any other document or
agreement (but excluding those expenses previously paid pursuant to Section
8.5). Lender shall not be required to proceed against any other party, or pursue
any other right or remedy hereunder, or under any other instrument or agreement,
but all such rights and remedies shall be cumulative and in addition to all
other rights and remedies of Lender.
12.6 ENFORCEMENT OF RIGHTS. Lender shall be entitled to enforce its
rights hereunder and to avail itself of said other rights or remedies
simultaneously or successively, in such order and priority as Lender shall
determine, and all such rights and remedies shall continue in full force and
effect until all Indebtedness of the Borrowers shall be satisfied in full, and
no one or more of such actions shall be deemed an election of remedies.
