APG
irrevocably appoints each of the Agent (including any officer or agent of the
Agent), as attorney of APG (with full power of substitution) to do, make and
execute, in the name of and on behalf of APG, on
the
occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default and at any other
time
that the
Security Interest will be enforceable, all further acts, documents, matters
and
things which a Agent may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes
of this agreement including the execution, endorsement and delivery of documents
and any notices, receipts, assignments or verifications of the accounts. This
power of attorney is irrevocable, is coupled with an interest, has been given
for valuable consideration (the receipt and adequacy of which is acknowledged)
and survives and does not terminate upon the bankruptcy, dissolution, winding
up
or insolvency of APG. All acts of the attorney are ratified and approved, and
the attorney will not be liable for any act, failure to act or any other matter
or thing, other than arising out of its own wilful misconduct, fraud or gross
negligence.
