Page 19 of 26

DUE” RATE SHALL NOT BE DEEMED A WAIVER BY LENDER OF ITS CLAIM THERETO.

15. Standards for Exercising Remedies. To the extent that applicable law imposes duties on Lender to exercise remedies in a commercially reasonable manner, Borrower acknowledges and agrees that it is commercially reasonable for Lender:

15.1. to not incur expenses to prepare Collateral for disposition or otherwise to complete raw material or work in process into finished goods or other finished products for disposition;

15.2. to fail to obtain third party consents for access to Collateral to be disposed of, or to obtain or, if not required by other law, to fail to obtain governmental or third party consents for the collection or disposition of Collateral to be collected or disposed of;

15.3. to fail to exercise collection remedies against Account Debtors or other persons obligated on Collateral or to remove liens or encumbrances on or any adverse claims against Collateral;

15.4. to exercise collection remedies against Account Debtors and other persons obligated on Collateral directly or through the use of collection agencies and other collection specialists;

15.5. to advertise dispositions of Collateral through publications or media of general circulation, whether or not the Collateral is of a specialized nature;

The Borrower acknowledges that the purpose of this Section 15 is to provide non-exhaustive indications of what actions or omissions by Lender would not be commercially unreasonable in Lender’s exercise of remedies against the Collateral and that other actions or omissions by Lender shall not be deemed commercially unreasonable solely on account of not being indicated in this Section. Without limitation upon the foregoing, nothing contained herein shall be construed to grant any rights to Borrower or to impose any duties on Lender that would

Page 20 of 26

not have been granted or imposed by this Agreement or by applicable law in the absence of this Section 15.

16. Proceeds and Expenses of Dispositions The Borrower shall pay to Lender on demand any and all expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements, incurred or paid by Lender in protecting, preserving, or enforcing Lender’s rights under or in respect of any of the Obligations or any of the Collateral. After deducting all of said expenses, the residue of any proceeds of collection or sale of the Obligations or Collateral shall, to the extent actually received in cash, be applied to the payment of the Obligations in such order or preference as Lender may determine, notwithstanding contrary instructions received by Lender from Borrower or any other third party.

19. No Lien Termination without Release. In recognition of Lender’s right to have all its attorneys’ fees and other expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement secured by the Collateral, notwithstanding payment in full of all Obligations by Borrower, Lender shall not be required to record any terminations or satisfactions of any of its liens on the Collateral unless and until each Obligor has executed and delivered to Lender general releases in a form reasonably acceptable to Lender. Borrower understands that this provision constitutes a waiver of its rights under §9-513(c) of the UCC.

20. Account Stated. Lender shall render to Borrower a statement setting forth the transactions arising hereunder. Each statement shall be considered correct and binding upon Borrower, absent manifest error, as an account stated, except to the extent that Lender receives, within thirty (30) days after the mailing of such statement, written notice from Borrower of any specific exceptions by Borrower to that statement.

21. Retention of Records. Lender shall retain any documents, schedules, invoices or other papers delivered by Borrower only for such period as Lender, at its sole discretion, may determine necessary, after which time Lender may destroy such records without notice to or consent from Borrower.

25.2. Survival. All representations, warranties and agreements herein contained shall be effective so long as any portion of this Agreement remains executory.

25.3. Amendment and Waiver. Neither this Agreement nor any provisions hereof may be changed, waived, discharged or terminated, nor may any consent to the departure from the terms hereof be given, orally (even if supported by new consideration), but only by an instrument in writing signed by all parties to this Agreement. Any waiver or consent so given shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given.

25.4. No Waiver. No failure to exercise and no delay in exercising any right, power, or remedy hereunder shall impair any right, power, or remedy which Lender may have, nor shall any such delay be construed to be a waiver of any of such rights, powers, or remedies, or any

Page 22 of 26

acquiescence in any breach or default hereunder; nor shall any waiver by Lender of any breach or default by Borrower hereunder be deemed a waiver of any default or breach subsequently occurring. All rights and remedies granted to Lender hereunder shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding any single or partial exercise of, or any discontinuance of action begun to enforce, any such right or remedy. The rights and remedies specified herein are cumulative and not exclusive of each other or of any rights or remedies that Lender would otherwise have. Any waiver, permit, consent or approval by Lender of any breach or default hereunder must be in writing and shall be effective only to the extent set forth in such writing and only as to that specific instance.

To the extent that Borrower may now or in the future have any claim against Lender, arising out of this agreement or the transaction contemplated herein whether in contract or tort or otherwise, Borrower must assert such claim within one year of it accruing.

25.7. Venue. The parties agree that any suit, action or proceeding arising out of the subject matter hereof, or the interpretation, performance or breach of this Agreement, shall, if Lender so elects, be instituted in the United States District Court for the District of the Controlling State or any court of said state (the “Acceptable Forums”), each party agrees that the Acceptable Forums are convenient to it, and each party irrevocably submits to the jurisdiction of the Acceptable Forums, irrevocably agrees to be bound by any judgment rendered thereby in connection with this Agreement, and waives any and all objections to jurisdiction or venue that it may have under the laws of the Controlling State or otherwise in those courts in any such suit, action or proceeding. Should such proceeding be initiated in any other forum, Borrower waives any right to oppose any motion or application made by Lender as a consequence of such proceeding having been commenced in a forum other than an Acceptable Forum.

25.8. Waiver of Trial by Jury. IN RECOGNITION OF THE HIGHER COSTS AND DELAY WHICH MAY RESULT FROM A JURY TRIAL, THE PARTIES HERETO WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION (a) ARISING HEREUNDER, OR (b) IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH OR RELATED OR INCIDENTAL TO THE DEALINGS OF THE PARTIES HERETO OR ANY OF THEM WITH RESPECT HERETO, IN EACH CASE WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING, AND WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT OR TORT OR OTHERWISE; AND EACH PARTY FURTHER WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO CONSOLIDATE ANY SUCH ACTION IN WHICH A JURY TRIAL HAS BEEN WAIVED WITH ANY OTHER ACTION IN WHICH A JURY TRIAL CANNOT BE OR HAS NOT BEEN WAIVED; AND EACH PARTY HEREBY AGREES AND

25.9. Counterparts. This Agreement may be signed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, with the same effect as if all signatures were upon the same instrument. Delivery of an executed counterpart of the signature page to this Agreement by facsimile shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement, and any party delivering such an executed counterpart of the signature page to this Agreement by facsimile to any other party shall thereafter also promptly deliver a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement to such other party, provided that the failure to deliver such manually executed counterpart shall not affect the validity, enforceability, or binding effect of this Agreement.

25.10. Effect of Agreement. Upon execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Revolving Facility shall be deemed amended and restated in it entirely, and the terms of this Agreement shall control the revolving credit facility that Lender is making available to Borrower.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be duly executed and delivered by their respective officers thereunto duly authorized as of the date first above written.
