have
the following rights and remedies (to the extent permitted by applicable law)
in
addition to all rights and remedies of a Secured party under the UCC or of
Secured Party under the Obligations, all such rights and remedies being
cumulative, not exclusive and enforceable alternatively, successively or
concurrently:
Secured
Party may, only upon giving Debtor forty five (45) days’ notice, with or without

premises in which any Collateral may be located and, without resistance or
interference by Debtor, take possession of the Collateral, and (ii) sell,

6. Secured
Party's prior recourse to any Collateral shall not constitute a condition of
any
demand, suit or proceeding for payment or collection of the Obligations nor
shall any demand, suit or proceeding for payment or collection of the
Obligations constitute a condition of any recourse by Secured Party to the
Collateral. Any suit or proceeding by Secured Party to recover any of
the Obligations shall not be deemed a waiver of, or bar against, subsequent
proceedings by Secured Party with respect to any other Obligations and/or with
respect to the Collateral. No act, omission or delay by Secured Party
shall constitute a waiver of its rights and remedies hereunder or
otherwise. No single or partial waiver by Secured Party of any
covenant, warranty, representation, Default or right or remedy which he may
have
shall operate as a waiver of any other covenant, warranty, representation,
Default, right or remedy or of the same covenant, warranty, representation,
Default, right or remedy on a future occasion. Debtor hereby waives
presentment, notice of dishonor and protest of all instruments included in
or
evidencing any Obligations or Collateral, and all other notices and demands
whatsoever (except as expressly provided herein).
7. Secured
Party
may assign its rights and obligation hereunder to any Affiliate of Secured
Party
provided that such Affiliate assumes all of the liabilities or obligations
of
Secured Party hereunder and Debtor has consented in writing to such
assignment. For purposes of this section, “Affiliate” of any person
means any other person or entity which, directly or indirectly, controls or
is
controlled by that person, or is under common control with that person or
entity. “Control” (including, with correlative meaning, the terms “controlled
by” and “under common control with”), as used with respect to any person or
entity, means the possession, directly or indirectly, of the power to direct
or
cause the direction of the management and policies of such person or entity,
whether through the ownership of voting securities, by contract or
otherwise.
8. All
terms
herein shall have the meanings as defined in the UCC, unless the context
otherwise requires. No provision hereof shall be modified, altered,
waived, released, terminated or limited except by a written instrument expressly
referring to this Security Agreement and to such provision, and executed by
the
party to be charged. This Security Agreement and all Obligations
shall be binding upon the successors and assigns of Debtor and shall, together
with the rights and remedies of Secured Party hereunder, inure to the benefit
of
Secured Party, its executors, administrators, successors, endorsees and
assigns. This Security Agreement and the Obligations shall be
governed in all respects by the laws of the State of New York applicable to
contracts executed and to be performed in such state. If any term of
this Security Agreement shall be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable,
the validity of all other terms hereof shall in no way be affected
thereby. Secured Party is authorized to annex hereto any schedules
referred to herein. Debtor acknowledges receipt of a copy of this
Security Agreement.
