example, you may demand payment in full if any of the following occur:
|
A.
Payments. I fail to make a payment in full
when due. |
|
B.
Insolvency or Bankruptcy. I make an assignment
for the benefit of creditors or become insolvent, either because my liabilities
exceed my assets or I am unable to pay my debts as they become due; or I petition
for protection under federal, state or local bankruptcy, insolvency or debtor
relief laws, or am the subject of a petition or action under such laws and fail
to have the petition or action dismissed within a reasonable period of time not to
exceed 60 days. |
|
C.
Business Termination. I merge, dissolve,
reorganize, end my business or existence, or a partner or majority owner dies or
is declared legally incompetent. |

condition or to keep any promise or covenant of this Agreement. |
|
E.
Other Documents. A default occurs under the
terms of any other transaction document. |

debt or agreement I have with you. |

written statement or provide any financial information that is untrue, inaccurate,

judgment against me. |
|

After I default, and after you give any legally required notice and opportunity

|
A.
Acceleration. You may make all or any part of
the amount owing by the terms of the Loan immediately due. |
|

My
right to receive money from you includes any deposit or share account balance I have with
you; any money owed to me on an item presented to you or in your possession for
collection or exchange; and any repurchase agreement or other non-deposit obligation.
"Any amount due and payable under the terms of the Loan" means the total amount to which
you are entitled to demand payment under the terms of the Loan at the time you set-off. |
|
Subject
to any other written contract, if my right to receive money from you is also owned by
someone who has not agreed to pay the Loan, your right of set-off will apply to my
interest in the obligation and to any other amounts I could withdraw on my sole request
or endorsement. |
|
Your
right of set-off does not apply to an account or other obligation where my rights arise
only in a representative capacity. It also does not apply to any Individual Retirement
Account or other tax-deferred retirement account. |
|
You
will not be liable for the dishonor of any check when the dishonor occurs because you
set-off against any of my accounts. I agree to hold you harmless from any such claims
arising as a result of your exercise of your right of set-off. |
|
X.
Xxxxxx. Except as otherwise required by law,
by choosing any one or more of these remedies you do not give up your right to
use any other remedy. You do not waive a default if you choose not to use a remedy.
By electing not to use any remedy, you do not waive your right to later consider
the event a default and to use any remedies if the default continues or occurs
again. |
9. COLLECTION
EXPENSES AND ATTORNEYS' FEES. On or after Default, to the extent permitted by law, I
agree to pay all expenses of collection, enforcement or protection of your rights
and remedies under this Agreement. Expenses include (unless prohibited by law)
reasonable attorneys' fees, court costs, and other legal expenses. These expenses are
due and payable immediately. If not paid immediately, these expenses will bear
interest from the date of payment until paid in full at the highest interest rate in
effect as provided for in the terms of this Loan. All fees and expenses will be
secured by the Property I have granted to you, if any. To the extent permitted by
the United States Bankruptcy Code, I agree to pay the reasonable attorneys' fees you
incur to collect this debt as awarded by any court exercising jurisdiction under the
Bankruptcy Code.
10. APPLICABLE
LAW. This Agreement is governed by the laws of Virginia, the United States of
America and to the extent required, by the laws of the jurisdiction where the Property
is located. In the event of a dispute, the exclusive forum, venue and place of
jurisdiction will be in Virginia, unless otherwise required by law.
11. JOINT
AND INDIVIDUAL LIABILITY AND SUCCESSORS. My obligation to pay this Loan is
independent of the obligation of any other person who has also agreed to pay it.
You may sue me alone, or anyone else who is obligated on this Loan, or any
number of us together, to collect this Loan. Extending this Loan or new
obligations under this Loan, will not affect my duty under this Loan and I will still
be obligated to pay this Loan. The duties and benefits of this Loan will bind and
benefit the successors and assigns of you and me.
12. AMENDMENT,
INTEGRATION AND SEVERABILITY. This Agreement may not be amended or modified by oral
agreement. No amendment or modification of this Agreement is effective unless made in
writing and executed by you and me. This Agreement is the complete and final
expression of the understanding between you and me. If any provision of this
Agreement is unenforceable, then the unenforceable provision will be severed
and the remaining provisions will still be enforceable.
