(g) Debtor has the right and power and is duly authorized to enter into this Security Agreement.

Debtor is in full compliance with all Federal, Debtor State and the state in which the Facilities are located environmental laws and regulations.
5. COLLECTION OF ACCOUNTS.
(a) Secured Party conditionally authorizes Debtor to collect accounts from Debtor’s account debtors provided, however, after an Event of Default and while it continues, this privilege may be terminated by Secured Party at any time upon written notice from Secured Party and, upon mailing such notice, Secured Party shall have all of Debtor’s rights, title, and interest in the accounts, including a right of stoppage in transit. After notice as aforesaid or upon the occurrence of an Event of Default (as subsequently defined), and subject to the terms of any written intercreditor agreement entered into by Secured Party with any other creditor of Debtor, Secured Party may notify any account debtor(s) of Secured Party’s security interest in Debtor’s accounts and shall be entitled to collect same, and Debtor will thereafter receive all accounts payments as the agent of and as trustee for Secured Party and will deliver to Secured Party on the day of receipt, all checks, cash, drafts, acceptances, notes and other accounts payments and, until such delivery, Debtor shall not use or commingle any accounts payments and shall at all times keep all such remittances separate and apart from Debtor’s own funds, capable of identification as the Secured Party’s property. After any Event of Default and while it continues, Debtor shall open all mail only in the presence of a Secured Party representative, who may remove therefrom any accounts remittance(s). Subject to the terms of any written intercreditor agreement entered into by Secured Party with any other creditor of Debtor, Secured Party and its representatives are hereby authorized to endorse in Debtor’s name, any item received by the Secured Party representing any payment on or proceeds of any of the Collateral, and may sign Debtor’s name upon all accounts, invoices, assignments, financing statements, notices to debtors, bills of lading, storage receipts, or other instruments or documents in respect to the account debtors, the proceeds therefrom, or property related thereto. Debtor shall promptly give Secured Party copies of all accounts statements, accompanied by such additional information, documents, or copies thereof, as Secured Party may request. Debtor shall maintain all records with respect to the accounts and with respect to the general conduct and operation of Debtor’s business, including balance sheets, operating statements and other financial information, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and as Secured Party may request.
(b) Until such time as Secured Party shall notify Debtor of the revocation of such power and authority by reason of an Event of Default (and effective only during the continuance thereof), Debtor (i) may, only in the ordinary course of business, at its own expense, sell, lease or furnish under contracts of service any of the inventory normally held by Debtor for such purpose; (ii) may use and consume any raw materials, work in process or materials, the use and consumption of which is necessary in order to carry on Debtor’s business; (iii) replace or dispose of equipment in accordance with the provisions of the Lease; and (iv) shall, at its own expense, endeavor to collect, as and when due, all amounts due with respect to any of the Collateral, including the taking of such action with respect to such collection as Secured Party may request or, in the absence of such request, as Debtor may deem advisable. A sale, lease, furnishing of
services or other transfer of the Collateral as a partial or total satisfaction of any debt of Debtor shall not constitute a sale in the ordinary course of business.
6. INSPECTIONS/INFORMATION. Debtor shall permit Secured Party or its agents upon reasonable written request and during business hours to have access to and to inspect any of the Collateral. Secured Party may from time to time upon reasonable written request and during business hours inspect, check, make copies of, or extracts from the books, records and files of Debtor relating to the Collateral, and Debtor shall make the same available to Secured Party at any reasonable time for such purposes. Secured Party is hereby authorized to conduct from time to time such investigation of Debtor’s continuing creditworthiness as Secured Party deems appropriate including, without limitation, contact with Debtor’s accountants or other third parties, and Secured Party is also authorized to respond to any credit inquiries received from trade creditors or other credit granting institutions. Debtor agrees to promptly supply Secured Party with such financial and other information concerning its financial and business affairs, assets and liabilities as Secured Party may from time to time reasonably request, and Debtor agrees that Secured Party or its agents may from time to time verify Debtor’s continuing compliance with any of Debtor’s warranties and covenants made in Paragraph 4 above, at Debtor’s cost and expense.
7. DEFAULT/REMEDIES.
(a) The occurrence of any of the following shall constitute an Event of Default under this Security Agreement:
(i) An Event of Default as defined in the Lease;
(ii) Debtor fails to observe or perform any other term, covenant or condition of this Security Agreement and the failure is not cured by Debtor within a period of thirty (30) days after written notice thereof from Secured Party; or
(iii) Any representation or warranty of the Debtor contained in this Agreement proves to be untrue in any material respect.
(b) Whenever an Event of Default shall have occurred and so long as its continues, Secured Party may exercise from time to time any rights and remedies, including the right to immediate possession of the Collateral, available to it under the Lease, this Security Agreement or applicable law. Secured Party shall have the right to hold any property then in or upon the Facilities (but excluding any property belonging to patients at the Facilities) at the time of repossession not covered by this Security Agreement until return is demanded in writing by Debtor. Debtor agrees, in case of the occurrence of an Event of Default and upon the request of Secured Party, to assemble, at its expense, all of the Collateral at a convenient place acceptable to Secured Party and to pay all costs of Secured Party of collection of all the Liabilities, and enforcement of rights hereunder, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and legal expenses, including participation in bankruptcy proceedings, and the expenses of locating the Collateral and the expenses of any repairs to any realty or other property to which any of the Collateral may be affixed or be a part. If the Collateral is disposed of at a public sale, the parties agree that (i) a public sale with at least ten (10) calendar days prior notice to Debtor and notice to the public by
one publication in a local newspaper is commercially reasonable, and (ii) a disclaimer of warranties at a public or private sale is commercially reasonable. 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 ten (10) days before such disposition, by first class mail, postage prepaid, addressed to the Debtor either at the address set forth in the notice section hereof, or at any other address of the Debtor appearing on the records of Secured Party.
(c) TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, DEBTOR AGREES THAT SECURED PARTY SHALL, UPON THE OCCURRENCE OF ANY EVENT OF DEFAULT, HAVE THE RIGHT TO PEACEFULLY RETAKE ANY OF THE COLLATERAL. DEBTOR WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE, IN SUCH INSTANCE, TO A JUDICIAL HEARING PRIOR TO SUCH RETAKING.
(d) The obligations of Debtor under this Security Agreement, the Lease and other Transaction Documents are cross-defaulted and cross-collateralized such that upon an Event of Default under the Lease, this Security Agreement and/or any such other Transaction Documents, the Secured Party has the right to declare such Event of Default to be an Event of Default without the benefit of any notice or grace periods contained under any or all of this Security Agreement, the Lease and the other Transaction Documents and without limitation to resort to any or all of the Collateral and the other collateral securing such obligations in pursuit of its remedies thereunder.
(e) Debtor acknowledges and agrees that in the event that any of the Collateral is sold by the Secured Party for credit, then credit shall be made against the Liabilities only as, if and when cash payments are actually received by the Secured Party for such Collateral.
8. INDEMNITY. In addition to the indemnities set forth in the Lease, Debtor shall protect, indemnify and hold harmless Secured Party and its officers, employees, directors and agents from and against all liabilities, obligations, claims, damages, penalties, causes of action, and out-of-pocket costs and expenses whatsoever (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) imposed upon or incurred by or asserted against Secured Party or its officers, employees, directors or agents, by reason of the ownership, use, construction and operation of the Collateral by Debtor, its officers, directors, servants, agents and employees or by reason of enforcement of Secured Party’s rights hereunder or under the Lease. As used in this Security Agreement, the term “attorneys’ fees” includes fees incurred in any appeal and/or enforcement proceedings. In case any action, suit or proceeding is brought against Secured Party by reason of the enforcement of Secured Party’s rights hereunder or under the Lease, Debtor, upon request of Secured Party, shall at Debtor’s expense cause such action, suit or proceeding to be resisted and defended by counsel approved by Secured Party with respect to proceedings and matters involving Secured Party. Any amounts payable to Secured Party under this Section 8 which are not paid within thirty (30) days after written demand therefore shall bear interest at the Overdue Rate as specified in the Lease from the date of such demand, and such amounts, together with such interest, shall be indebtedness secured by this Security Agreement. The obligations of Debtor under this Section 8 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of the Term of the Lease.
9. GENERAL.

(b) Condition of Collateral. Secured Party shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of any Collateral in its possession if it takes such action for that purpose as Debtor requests in writing, but failure of Secured Party to comply with any such request shall not of itself be deemed a failure to exercise reasonable care. Failure of Secured Party to preserve or protect any rights with respect to such Collateral against any prior parties shall not be deemed a failure to exercise reasonable care in the custody and preservation of such Collateral.
(c) Waivers. Any delay on the part of Secured Party in exercising any power, privilege or right under the Lease, this Security Agreement or under any other Transaction Document shall not operate as a waiver thereof. 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.
