Section 6.4 Rights and Remedies in Collateral.
---------------------------------
6.4.1 If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, (a) all payments made in respect of the Collateral and received by
or on behalf of the Lender in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement
or otherwise, may, in the discretion of the Lender, (i) be held by or on behalf
of the Lender as Collateral, and/or (ii) then or at any time thereafter be
applied to the Loan in such order as the Lender shall determine, and (b) to the
extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, the Bonds and any other
certificates or evidences of the Collateral shall be registered in the name of
the Lender or its nominee, and (whether or not so registered) the Lender or its
nominee may thereafter exercise (i) all voting and other rights pertaining to
the Collateral and (ii) any and all rights of conversion, exchange,
14
subscription and any other rights, privileges or options pertaining to the
Collateral as if it were the absolute owner thereof all without liability except
to account for property actually received by it, but the Lender shall have no
duty to exercise any such right, privilege or option and shall not be
responsible for any failure to do so or delay in so doing.
6.4.2 If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, then, in addition to any other rights and remedies provided for
herein and in any other instrument or agreement securing, evidencing or relating
to the Loan, or that may otherwise be available, the Lender may without any
demand, advertisement or notice (except as expressly provided for below in this
Section 6.4.2), exercise all the rights and remedies of a secured party under
-------------
the UCC, and in addition may sell, lease, assign, give option or options to
purchase, or otherwise dispose of the Collateral, or any part thereof, as
hereinafter provided. The Collateral may be sold or otherwise disposed of in
one or more sales, at public or private sale, conducted by any officer or agent
of, or auctioneer or attorney for, the Lender, at any exchange or broker's board
or at the Lender's place of business or elsewhere, for cash, upon credit or for
other property, for immediate or future delivery, and at such price or prices
and on such terms as the Lender shall, in its sole discretion, deem appropriate.
The Lender may be the purchaser of any or all of the Collateral so sold at a
sale and thereafter may hold the same, and the obligations of the Borrower
and/or the Partnership, to such purchaser may be applied as a credit against the
purchase price. The Lender may, in its sole discretion, at any such sale
restrict the prospective bidders or purchasers as to their number, nature of
business and investment intention. Upon any such sale, the Lender shall have
the right to deliver, assign and transfer to the purchaser thereof (including
the Lender) the Collateral so sold, absolutely free from any claim or right of
whatsoever kind, including any equity or right of redemption, of the
Borrower, and the Borrower hereby specifically waives, to the fullest extent it
may lawfully do so, all rights of redemption, stay or appraisal that it has or
may have under any rule of law or statute now existing or hereafter adopted.
The Borrower agrees that the Lender need not give more than ten (10) days,
notice of the time and place of any public sale or of the time after which a
private sale or other intended disposition is to take place and that such notice
is reasonable notification of such matters. No notification need be given to
the Borrower if it has signed after the occurrence of an Event of Default a
statement renouncing or modifying any right to notification of sale or other
intended disposition. Any such public sale shall be held at such time or times
within ordinary business hours as the Lender shall fix in the notice of such
sale. At any such sale, the Collateral may be sold in one lot as an entirety or
in separate parcels. The Lender shall not be obligated to make any sale
pursuant to any such notice. The Lender may, without notice or publication,
adjourn any public or private sale or cause the same to be adjourned from time
to time by announcement at the time and place fixed for such sale, and any such
sale may be made at any time or place to which the same may be so adjourned
without further notice or publication. In case of any sale of all or any part
of the Collateral on credit or for future delivery, the Collateral so sold may
be retained by the Lender until the full selling price is paid by the purchaser
thereof, but the Lender shall not incur any liability in case of the failure of
such purchaser to take up and pay for the Collateral so sold, and, in case of
any such failure, such Collateral may again be sold pursuant to the provisions
hereof.
6.4.3 If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, instead of exercising the power of sale provided in Section 6.4.2
-------------
hereof, the Lender may
15
proceed by a suit or suits at law or in equity to foreclose the pledge and
security interest under this Agreement and sell the Collateral or any portion
thereof under a judgment or decree of a court or courts of competent
jurisdiction.
6.4.4 The Lender, as attorney-in-fact pursuant to Section 2.6.6
-------------
hereof,may, in the name and stead of the Borrower, make and execute all
conveyances, assignments and transfers of the Collateral sold pursuant to
Section 6.4.2 or Section 6.4.3 hereof, and, to the extent permitted
------------- -------------
by applicable law, the Borrower hereby ratifies and confirms all that the
Lender, as said attorney-in-fact, shall do by virtue hereof. Nevertheless, the
Borrower shall, if so requested by the Lender, ratify and confirm any sale or
sales by executing and delivering to the Lender, or to such purchaser or
purchasers, all such instruments as may, in the judgment of the Lender, be
advisable for the purpose.
6.4.5 The receipt of the Lender for the purchase money paid at such
sale made by it pursuant to Sections 6.4.2 or 6.4.3 hereof shall be sufficient
-----------------------
discharge therefore to any purchaser of the Collateral, or any portion thereof,
sold as aforesaid; and no such purchaser (or the representatives or assigns of
such purchaser), after paying such purchase money and receiving such receipt,
shall be bound to see to the application of such purchase money or any part
thereof or in any manner whatsoever be answerable for any loss, misapplication
or non-application of any such purchase money, or any part thereof, or be bound
to inquire as to the authorization, necessity, expediency or regularity of any
such sale.
6.4.6 The Lender shall not incur any liability as a result of the
sale of the Collateral, or any part thereof, at any private sale pursuant to
Section 6.4.2 hereof conducted in a commercially reasonable manner. The Borrower
-------------
hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, all claims,
damages and demands against the Lender arising out of the repossession or
retention of the Collateral or the sale of the Collateral pursuant to Section
-------
6.4.2 or 6.4.3 hereof, including, without limitation, any claims against the
--------------
Lender arising by reason of the fact that the price at which the Collateral, or
any part thereof, may have been sold at a private sale was less than the price
that might have been obtained at a public sale or was less than the aggregate
amount of the obligations, even if the Lender accepts the first offer received
that the Lender in good xxxxx xxxxx to be commercially reasonable under the
circumstances and does not offer the Collateral to more than one offeree. To the
fullest extent permitted by the law, the Borrower shall have the burden of
proving that any such sale of the Collateral was conducted in a commercially
unreasonable manner.
6.4.7 If the Lender shall demand possession of any Collateral or any
part thereof not already in its possession in connection with its rights
pursuant to Sections 6.4.2 or 6.4.3 hereof, the Borrower will, at its own
-----------------------
expense, forthwith cause such Collateral or any part thereof designated by the
Lender to be assembled and made available and/or delivered to the Lender at any
place reasonably designated by the Lender.
6.4.8 No Sale or other disposition of all or any part of the
Collateral by the Lender pursuant to this Section 6.4 shall he deemed to relieve
-----------
the Borrower of its obligations in respect of any Indebtedness except to the
extent the proceeds thereof are applied by the Lender to the payment of such
Indebtedness.
16
Section 6.5 Waiver. To the fullest extent it may lawfully so agree, the
------
Borrower agrees that it will not at any time insist upon, claim, plead or take
any benefit or advantage of any appraisement, valuation, stay, extension,
moratorium, redemption, or similar law now or hereinafter in force in order to
prevent, delay, or hinder the enforcement hereof or the absolute sale of any
part of the Collateral. The Borrower for itself and all who claim through it, so
far as it or they now or hereafter lawfully may do so, hereby waives the benefit
of all such laws, and all right to have the Collateral marshaled upon any
foreclosure hereof, and agrees that any court having jurisdiction to foreclose
this Agreement may order the sale of the Collateral as an entirety. Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Borrower hereby; (a) authorizes
the Lender, in its sole discretion and without notice to or demand upon the
Borrower and without otherwise affecting the obligations of the Borrower
hereunder or in respect of the Loan, from time to time to take and hold other
collateral (in addition to the Collateral) for payment of any obligations, or
any part thereof, and to exchange, enforce or release such other collateral or
any part thereof and to accept and hold any endorsement or guarantee of payment
of the Loan or any part thereof and to release or substitute any endorser or
guarantor or any other Person granting security for or in any other way
obligated upon the obligations or any part thereof; and (b) waives and releases
any and all right to require the Lender to collect any of the Loan from any
specific item or items of the Collateral or from any other party liable as
guarantor or in any other manner in respect of any of the obligations or from
any collateral (other than such Collateral) for any of the obligations.
Section 6.6 Specific Performance. The Borrower hereby irrevocably waives,
--------------------
to the extent that it may do so under Applicable Law, any defense based on the
adequacy of a remedy at law that may be asserted as a bar to the remedy of
specific performance in any action brought against the Borrower for specific
performance of this Agreement by the Lender or in respect of all or a
substantial part of the Borrower's assets under the bankruptcy or insolvency
laws of any jurisdiction to which the Borrower or its assets are subject.
Section 6.7 Private Sales. The Borrower recognizes that the Lender may
-------------
be unable to effect a public sale of any or all the Collateral, by reason of
certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act and applicable state
securities laws or otherwise, and may be compelled to resort to one or more
private sales thereof to a restricted group of purchasers which will be obliged
to agree, among other things, to acquire the Collateral for their own account
for investment and not with a view to the distribution thereof. The Borrower
acknowledges and agrees that any such private sale may result in prices and
other terms less favorable to the Lender than if such sale were a public sale
and agrees that such circumstances shall not, in and of themselves, result in a
determination that such sale was not made in a commercially reasonable manner.

indicated on the return receipt, and all notices given by other means shall be
effective when received.
Section 7.2 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall inure to the
----------------------
benefit of and shall be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective
successors and assigns. The Lender may assign its rights under this Agreement
without the consent of the Borrower or any other person. The Borrower may not
assign its rights under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the
Lender (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld). The Borrower and the
Lender intend that no person other than the parties hereto, and their successors
and assigns as permitted hereunder shall have any claim or interest under this
Agreement or right of action hereon or hereunder.
Section 7.3 Survival of Covenants. All covenants made by the Borrower
---------------------
herein and in any document delivered pursuant hereto shall survive the
termination of this Agreement.
Section 7.4 Counterparts. The execution hereof by each party hereto shall
------------
constitute a contract between them for the uses and purposes herein set forth,
and this Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, with each
executed counterpart constituting an original and all counterparts together
constituting one agreement.
Section 7.5 Costs, Expenses and Taxes. The Borrower agrees to pay on demand
-------------------------
all reasonable costs and expenses of the Lender in connection with the
preparation, execution, and delivery of this Agreement, the other Credit
Documents and any other documents that may be delivered in connection with this
Agreement, including, the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel for the
Lender. In addition, the Borrower shall pay any and all stamp and other taxes,
recording fees, taxes (other than the Lender's income taxes) and charges and all
other fees and charges payable or determined to be payable in connection with
the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the other Credit Documents and
such other documents. The Borrower agrees to indemnify and to hold the Lender
harmless from and against any and all liabilities with respect to or resulting
from any delay in paying or omission to pay such taxes and fees; provided that
the Lender promptly notifies the Borrower of any such taxes and fees.
Section 7.6 Amendments. This Agreement may be amended only by an instrument
----------
in writing executed and delivered by the Borrower and the Lender.
Section 7.7 Severability; Interest Limitation. If any provision hereof is
---------------------------------
found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be prohibited or unenforceable in
any jurisdiction, it shall be ineffective as to such jurisdiction only to the
extent of such prohibition or unenforceability, and such prohibition or
unenforceability shall not invalidate the balance of such provision as to such
jurisdiction to the extent it is not prohibited or unenforceable, nor invalidate
such provision in any other jurisdiction, nor invalidate the other provisions
hereof, all of which shall be liberally construed in favor of the Lender in
order to effect the provisions of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary herein contained, the total liability of the Borrower for payment
of interest pursuant hereto shall not exceed the maximum amount, if any, of such
interest permitted by applicable Legal Requirements to be contracted for,
charged or received,
19
and if any payments by the Borrower to the Lender include interest in excess of
such a maximum amount, the Lender shall apply such excess to the reduction of
the unpaid principal amount due pursuant hereto, or if none is due, such excess
shall be refunded to the Borrower; provided that, to the extent permitted by
applicable Legal Requirements, in the event the interest is not collected, is
applied to principal or is refunded pursuant to this sentence and interest
thereafter payable pursuant hereto shall be less than such maximum amount, then
such interest thereafter so payable shall be increased up to such maximum amount
to the extent necessary to recover the amount of interest, if any, theretofore
uncollected, applied to principal or refunded pursuant to this sentence. Any
such application or refund shall not cure or waive any Event of Default. In
determining whether or not any interest payable under this Agreement exceeds the
highest rate permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, any nonprincipal
payment (except payments specifically stated in this Agreement to be "interest")
shall be deemed, to the extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, to be
an expense, fee, premium or penalty rather than interest.
SECTION 7.8 CONFLICTS. Insofar as possible the provisions of this
---------
Agreement shall be deemed complementary to the terms of the other Credit
Documents, but in the event of conflict the terms hereof shall control to the
extent such are enforceable under applicable Legal Requirements.
