limitation the following:
(i) The right to sell, lease, license or otherwise dispose of

in foreclosure and otherwise, available to Secured Parties following a
Default of Debtor under the provisions of the Uniform Commercial Code
and other applicable law;

sell, lease or dispose of any of the Collateral at one or more public or
private sales all in accordance with Florida law.
(c) Secured Party may specifically disclaim any warranties of title,
possession, quiet enjoyment or the like in any sale of the Collateral. If any
notification of intended disposition of any of the Collateral is required by
law, such notification, if mailed, shall be deemed reasonably and properly given
if sent at least seven (7) days before such disposition, postage prepaid,
addressed to Debtor either at the address specified above, or at any other
address of the undersigned appearing on the records of Secured Party. Upon the
occurrence of a Default, Debtor also agrees, upon the request of the Secured
Party, to assemble the Collateral and make it available to the Secured Party at
any place designated by the Secured Party.

from, against and with respect to all reasonable direct costs and expenses
incurred by Secured Party in connection with the collection or administration of
any and all Liabilities, the enforcement or interpretation of Secured Party's
rights hereunder and/or under the Note, and the protection, maintenance, sale,
lease or other disposition, foreclosure and liquidation of the Collateral
(including without limitation, reasonable attorneys fees and legal expenses,
court costs, appraisal fees, broker, auctioneer and sales commissions and fees,
sales and advertising expenses, expenses of participation in bankruptcy,
judicial, or other proceedings, expenses of locating, relocating, maintaining
and/or preserving the Collateral and expenses of any cleaning, restoring and
repairing of the Collateral or any realty or other property to which any of the
Collateral may be affixed or be a part), all of which costs and expenses shall
be added to and included in the Liabilities for all purposes of this Agreement
(collectively "Secured Party's Costs").
SECTION 8. SUBORDINATION. The Secured Party acknowledges that the
security interest granted by the Debtor hereunder is subordinate to the security
interest of the Senior Lender pursuant to and to the extent provided in the

SECTION 9. MISCELLANEOUS.
(a) Time shall be deemed of the very essence of this Agreement. Except
as otherwise defined in this Agreement, all terms in this Agreement and in any
Exhibit hereto shall have the meanings provided by the Uniform Commercial Code
as enacted by the State of Florida.
(b) Any delay on the part of Secured Party in exercising any power,
privilege or right hereunder, or under any other instrument executed by Debtor
to Secured Party in connection herewith shall not operate as a waiver thereof,
and no single or partial exercise thereof, or the exercise of any other power,
privilege or right shall preclude other or further exercise thereof, or the
exercise of any other power, privilege or right. The waiver by Secured Party of
any Default by Debtor must be done expressly and in writing, and the waiver of
any Default shall not constitute a waiver of any subsequent or other Default,
but shall be restricted solely to the Default so waived. The acceptance or
receipt by Secured Party of any partial payment or any portion of the
Liabilities, howsoever tendered to or received by Secured Party, shall not under
any circumstances whatsoever, constitute a waiver or release of any right of
Secured Party to the collection of the remaining balance of the Liabilities in
full or of any other right or remedy of Secured Party hereunder or under
applicable law.
(c) All rights, remedies and powers of Secured Party hereunder are
irrevocable and cumulative, and not alternative or exclusive, and shall be in
addition to all rights, remedies and powers given hereunder or in or by any
other instruments or by the Florida Uniform Commercial Code, or any laws now
existing or hereafter enacted.
(d) This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with
the laws of the State of Florida, without regard to conflict of law principles.
Whenever possible each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such
manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision
of this Agreement shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such
provision shall be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or
invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the
remaining provisions of this Agreement.
(e) The rights and privileges of Secured Party hereunder shall inure to
the benefit of its successors and assigns. Debtor may not assign this Agreement
without the written consent of Secured Party. This Agreement shall be binding
upon all heirs, estates, personal representatives, successors and assigns of
Debtor.
(f) Except as otherwise specifically provided for herein, any notices or
demands required under this Agreement shall be in writing addressed to the party
at the address set forth in Section 1 and served as follows: (a) by personal
service with service being effective upon delivery, or (b) by certified mail,
return receipt requested, with service being effective three (3) days after
