3.
Upon the occurrence of any Default and at any time thereafter, Secured Party shall have the following rights and remedies (to the extent permitted by applicable law) in addition to all rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC, all such rights and remedies being cumulative, not exclusive and enforceable alternatively, successively or concurrently: (a) Secured Party may, at any time and from time to time, with or without judicial process and the aid and assistance of others, enter upon any premises in which any of the Collateral may be located and, without resistance or interference by Debtor, take possession of the Collateral; and/or dispose of any part or all of the Collateral on any premises of Debtor; and/or require Debtor to assemble and make available to Secured Party at the expense of Debtor any part or all of the Collateral at any place and time designated by Secured Party which is reasonably convenient to both parties; and/or remove any part or all of the Collateral from any premises on which any part may be located for the purpose of effecting sale or other disposition thereof (and if any of the Collateral consists of motor vehicles, Secured Party may use Debtor's license plates); and/or sell, resell, lease, assign and deliver, grant options for or otherwise dispose of any or all of the Collateral in its then condition or following any commercially reasonable preparation or processing, at public or private sale or proceedings, by one or more contracts, in one or more parcels, at the same or different times, with or without having the Collateral at the place of sale or other disposition, for cash and/or credit, and upon any terms, at such place(s) and time(s) and to such persons, firms or corporations as Secured Party deems best, all without demand for performance or any notice or advertisement whatsoever except that where an applicable statute requires reasonable notice of sale or other disposition. Debtor hereby agrees that the sending of ten days notice by overnight courier, to any address of Debtor set forth in this Security Agreement of the place and time of any public sale or of the time after which any private sale or other intended disposition is to be made, shall be deemed reasonable notice thereof. If any of the Collateral is sold by Secured Party upon credit or for future delivery, Secured Party shall not be liable for the failure of
4
the purchaser to pay for same and in such event Secured Party may resell such collateral. Secured Party may buy any part of all of the Collateral at any public sale and if any part or all of the Collateral is of a type customarily sold in a recognized market or is of the type which is the subject of widely distributed standard price quotations Secured Party may buy at private sale and may make payment therefor by any means. Secured Party may apply the cash proceeds actually received from any sale or other disposition to the reasonable expenses of retaking, holding, preparing for sale, selling, leasing and the like, to reasonable attorney's fees and all legal expenses, travel and other expenses which may be incurred by Secured Party in attempting to collect the Obligations or enforce this Security Agreement or in the prosecution or defense of any action or proceeding related to the subject matter of this Security Agreement; and then to the Obligations in such order and as to principal or interest as Secured Party may desire; and Debtor shall remain liable and will pay Secured Party on demand any deficiency remaining, including legal interest thereon and the balance of any expenses unpaid, with any surplus to be paid to Debtor, subject to any duty of Secured Party imposed by law to the holder of any subordinate security interest in the Collateral known to Secured Party. Debtor recognizes that the Secured Party may be unable to effect a public sale of all or a part of the Collateral consisting of securities by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act of 1933, but may be compelled to resort to one or more private sales to a restricted group of purchasers who will be obliged to agree, among other things, to acquire such securities for their own account, for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. Debtor agrees that any such private sales may be at prices and other terms less favorable to the seller than if sold at public sales and that such private sales shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner; Secured Party has no obligation to delay sale of any such securities for the period of time necessary to permit the issuer of such securities, even if such issuer would agree, to register such securities for public sale under the Securities Act of 1933; (b) Secured Party may appropriate, set off and apply to the payment of any or all of the Obligations, any and all balances, sums, property, claims, credits, deposits, accounts, reserves, collections, drafts, notes, or other items or proceeds of the Collateral in or coming into the possession of Secured Party or its agents and belonging or owing to Debtor, without notice to Debtor, and in such manner as Secured Party may in its discretion determine; (c) any of the proceeds of the Collateral received by Debtor shall not be commingled with other property of Debtor, but shall be segregated, held by the Debtor in trust as the exclusive property of Secured Party, and Debtor will immediately deliver to Secured Party the identical checks, monies, or other proceeds of Collateral received.
4.

5.
Under no circumstances shall Secured Party be deemed to assume any responsibility for or
5
obligation or duty with respect to any part or all of the Collateral, of any nature or kind, or any matter or proceedings arising out of or relating thereto, but the same shall be at the Debtor's sole risk at all times. Secured Party shall not be required to take any action of any kind to collect, preserve, or protect its or Debtor's rights in the Collateral or against other parties thereto. Debtor hereby releases Secured Party from any claims, causes of action and demands at any time arising out of or with respect to this Security Agreement, the Obligations, the use of the Collateral and/or any actions taken or omitted to be taken by Secured Party with respect thereto, except to the extent arising from Secured Party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, and Debtor hereby agrees to hold Secured Party harmless from and with respect to any and all such claims, causes of action and demands. Secured Party's prior recourse to any part or all of the Collateral shall not constitute a condition of any demand, suit or proceeding for payment or collection of the Obligations. No act, failure or delay by Secured Party shall constitute a waiver of its rights and remedies hereunder or otherwise. No single or partial waiver by the Secured Party of any default, or right or remedy which it may have shall operate as a waiver of any other default, right or remedy or the same default, right or remedy on a future occasion.

DEBTOR HEREBY WAIVES PERSONAL SERVICE OF ANY SUMMONS, COMPLAINT OR OTHER PROCESS IN CONNECTION WITH ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING AND AGREES THAT THE SERVICE THEREOF MAY BE MADE BY CERTIFIED OR REGISTERED MAIL DIRECTED TO DEBTOR AT ITS CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICE SET FORTH BELOW, OR AT SUCH OTHER ADDRESS AS DEBTOR MAY DESIGNATE BY WRITTEN NOTIFICATION BY CERTIFIED OR REGISTERED MAIL DIRECTED TO AND RECEIVED BY SECURED PARTY AT ITS OFFICE SET FORTH IN THE FINANCING STATEMENTS FILED HEREUNDER (OR IF NO SUCH FINANCING STATEMENTS HAVE BEEN FILED, AT THE OFFICE OF SECURED PARTY AT WHICH IS LOCATED THE OFFICER IN DIRECT SUPERVISION OF THE WITHIN SECURITY INTEREST). The Debtor so served shall appear or answer to such summons, complaint or other process within thirty days after the mailing thereof. In the alternative, in its discretion Secured Party may effect service upon Debtor in any other form or manner permitted. No provision hereof shall be modified, altered or limited except by a written instrument expressly referring to this Security Agreement and to the provision so modified or limited and executed by the party to be charged.
