ARBITRATION. Lender and Borrower agree that all disputes, claims and
controversies between them, whether individual, joint, or class in nature,
arising from this Agreement or otherwise, including without limitation contract
and tort disputes, shall be arbitrated pursuant to the Rules of the American
Arbitration Association, upon request of either party. No act to take or dispose
of any collateral securing this Agreement shall constitute a waiver of this
arbitration agreement or be prohibited by this arbitration agreement. This
includes, without limitation, obtaining injunctive relief or a temporary
restraining order; invoking a power of sale under any deed of trust or mortgage;
obtaining a writ of attachment or imposition of a receiver; or exercising any
rights relating to personal property, including taking or disposing of such
property with or without judicial process pursuant to Article 9 of the Uniform
Commercial Code. Any disputes, claims, or controversies concerning the
lawfulness or reasonableness of any act, or exercise of any right, concerning
any collateral securing this Agreement, including any claim to rescind, reform,
or otherwise modify any agreement relating to the collateral securing this
Agreement, shall also be arbitrated, provided however that no arbitrator shall
have the right or the power to enjoin or restrain any act of any party. Lender
and Borrower agree that in the event of an action for judicial foreclosure
pursuant to California Code of Civil Procedure Section 726, or any similar
provision in any other state, the commencement of such an action will not
constitute a waiver of the right to arbitrate and the court shall refer to
arbitration as much of such action, including counterclaims, as lawfully may be
referred to arbitration. Judgment upon any award rendered by any arbitrator may
be entered in any court having jurisdiction. Nothing in this Agreement shall
preclude any party from seeking equitable relief from a court of competent
jurisdiction. The statute of limitations, estoppel, waiver, laches, and similar
doctrines which would otherwise be applicable in an action brought by a party
shall be applicable in any arbitration proceeding, and the commencement of an
arbitration proceeding shall be deemed the commencement of an action for these
purposes. The Federal Arbitration Act shall apply to the construction,
interpretation, and enforcement of this arbitration provision.
CONTINUING VALIDITY. Except as expressly changed by this Agreement, the terms of
the original obligation or obligations, including all agreements evidenced or
securing the obligation(s), remain unchanged and in full force and effect.
Consent by Lender to this Agreement does not waive Lender's right to strict
performance of the obligation(s) as changed, nor obligate Lender to make any
future change in terms. Nothing in this Agreement will constitute a satisfaction
of the obligation(s). It is the intention of Lender to retain as liable parties
all makers and endorsers of the original obligation(s), including accommodation
parties, unless a party is expressly released by Lender in writing. Any maker or
endorser, including accommodation makers, will not be released by virtue of this
Agreement. If any person who signed the original obligation does not sign this
Agreement below, then all persons signing below acknowledge that this Agreement
is given conditionally, based on the representation to Lender that the
non-signing party consents to the changes and provisions of this Agreement or
otherwise will not be released by it. This waiver applies not only to any
initial extension, modification or release, but also to all such subsequent
actions.
PRIOR TO SIGNING THIS AGREEMENT, BORROWER READ AND UNDERSTOOD ALL THE
PROVISIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT, INCLUDING THE VARIABLE INTEREST RATE
