Section 5. Waivers, Non-Exclusive Remedies. No failure or delay on the part of Secured Party in exercising any rights under this Security Agreement shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise by Secured Party of any of such rights preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other rights with respect to the Collateral, and no waiver as to one Event of Default shall affect the rights of Secured Party as to any other or subsequent Event of Default.
Section 6. Changes In Writing. This Agreement and any provision hereof may not be amended, waived or terminated except by a written instrument signed by Secured Party and Debtor.
Section 7. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts (except in cases and with respect to Collateral when the perfection, the effect of perfection or nonperfection, and the priority of a lien in the Collateral is governed by another jurisdiction, in which case such jurisdiction shall control).

Upon request by Secured Party, Debtor will deliver to Secured Party a detailed aging of accounts receivable in form acceptable to Secured Party.
Section 11. Limited Power Of Attorney. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Debtor hereby appoints Secured Party its true and lawful attorney with full power of substitution to execute any and all documents Secured Party deems necessary to perfect its security interests hereunder, to demand, collect, receive, receipt for, xxx for, compound and give acquittance for, any and all amounts due and to become due on any accounts and to endorse the name of the Debtor on all commercial paper given in payment or part-payment thereof and in its discretion to file any claim or take any other action which Secured Party may deem necessary or appropriate to protect and preserve and realize upon the security interest of the Secured Party in any accounts or the proceeds thereof, to obtain, adjust, settle and cancel any insurance and endorse any drafts in payment of any loss, to take any actions permitted by Section 10 hereof and to do all other acts or things contemplated by this Agreement.
Section 12. Substitution of Security. At any time while this Agreement is in effect, Debtor shall have the right to post an irrevocable letter of credit in substitution for this Agreement in an amount equal to the then outstanding balance of the Obligations and containing such terms as are reasonably acceptable to Secured Party, and upon such posting Secured Party shall discharge all security interests with respect to the Collateral.
