GENERAL PROVISIONS. Each Debtor’s obligations under this
Agreement are independent of the obligations of any other Debtor. Secured
Party may sue each Debtor individually or together with any other Debtor.
Secured Party may release any part of the Property and Debtor will remain
obligated under this Agreement. The duties and benefits of this Agreement
will bind the successors and assigns of Debtor and Secured Party. No
modification of this Agreement is effective unless made in writing and
signed by Xxxxxx and Secured Party. Whenever used, the plural includes the
singular and the singular includes the plural. Time is of the essence.
APPLICABLE LAW. This Agreement is governed by the laws of the state
in which Secured Party is located. In the event of a dispute, the exclusive
forum, venue, and place of jurisdiction will be the state in which Secured
Party is located, unless otherwise required by law. If any provision of this
Agreement is unenforceable by law, the unenforceable provision will be
severed and the remaining provisions will still be enforceable.
NAME AND LOCATION. Xxxxxx’s name indicated on page 1 is Xxxxxx’s
exact legal name. If Debtor is an individual, Xxxxxx’s address is Xxxxxx’s
principal residence. If Debtor is not an individual, Xxxxxx’s address is the
location of Debtor’s chief executive offices or sole place of business. If
Debtor is an entity organized and registered under state law, Debtor has
provided Debtor’s state of registration on page 1. Debtor will provide
verification of registration and location upon Secured Party’s request.
Debtor will provide Secured Party with at least 30 days notice prior to any
change in Debtor’s name, address, or state of organization or registration.
WARRANTIES AND REPRESENTATIONS. Debtor has the right,
authority, and power to enter into this Agreement. The execution and
delivery of this Agreement will not violate any agreement governing Debtor
or Debtor’s property, or to which Debtor is a party. Debtor makes the
following warranties and representations which continue as long as this
Agreement is in effect:
| (1) | Debtor is duly organized and validly existing in all jurisdictions in which Debtor does business; |
|
| (2) | the execution and performance of the terms of this Agreement have been duly authorized, have received all necessary governmental approval, and will not violate any provision of law or order; | |
| (3) | other than previously disclosed to Secured Party, Debtor has not changed Xxxxxx’s name or principal place of business within the last 10 years and has not used any other trade or fictitious name; and | |
| (4) | Debtor does not and will not use any other name without Secured Party’s prior written consent. |
Debtor owns all of the Property, and Secured Party’s claim to the Property
is ahead of the claims of any other creditor, except as otherwise agreed and
disclosed to Secured Party prior to any advance on the Secured Debts. The
Property has not been used for any purpose that would violate any laws or
subject the Property to forfeiture or seizure.
DUTIES TOWARD PROPERTY. Debtor will protect the Property and
Secured Party’s interest against any competing claim. Except as otherwise
agreed, Xxxxxx will keep the Property in Debtor’s possession at the address
indicated on page 1 of this Agreement. Debtor will keep the Property in
good repair and use the Property only for purposes specified on page 1.
Debtor will not use the Property in violation of any law and will pay all
taxes and assessments levied or assessed against the Property. Secured Party
has the right of reasonable access to inspect the Property, including the right
to require Debtor to assemble and make the Property available to Secured
Party. Debtor will immediately notify Secured Party of any loss or damage
to the Property. Debtor will prepare and keep books, records, and accounts
about the Property and Xxxxxx’s business, to which Debtor will allow
Secured Party reasonable access.
Debtor will not sell, offer to sell, license, lease, or otherwise transfer or
encumber the Property without Secured Party’s prior written consent. Any
disposition of the Property will violate Secured Party’s rights, unless the
Property is inventory sold in the ordinary course of business at fair market
value. If the Property includes chattel paper or instruments, either as
original collateral or as proceeds of the Property, Debtor will record Secured
Party’s interest on the face of the chattel paper or instruments.
If the Property includes accounts, Xxxxxx will not settle any account for less
than the full value, dispose of the accounts by assignment, or make any
material change in the terms of any account without Secured Party’s prior
written consent. Debtor will collect all accounts in the ordinary course of
business, unless otherwise required by Secured Party. Debtor will keep the
proceeds of the accounts, and any goods returned to Debtor, in trust for
Secured Party and will not commingle the proceeds or returned goods with
any of Debtor’s other property. Secured Party has the right to require Debtor
to pay Secured Party the full price on any returned items. Secured Party may
require account debtors to make payments under the accounts directly to
Secured Party. Debtor will deliver the accounts to Secured Party at Secured
Party’s request. Debtor will give Secured Party all statements, reports,
certificates, lists of account debtors (showing names, addresses, and
amounts owing), invoices applicable to each account, and any other data
pertaining to the accounts as Secured Party requests.
If the Property includes farm products, Debtor will provide Secured Party
with a list of the buyers, commission merchants, and selling agents to or
through whom Debtor may sell the farm products. Debtor authorizes
Secured Party to notify any additional parties regarding Secured Party’s
interest in Debtor’s farm products, unless prohibited by law. Xxxxxx agrees
to plant, cultivate, and harvest crops in due season. Debtor will be in default
if any loan proceeds are used for a purpose that will contribute to excessive
erosion of highly erodible land or to the conversion of wetland to produce or
to make possible the production of an agricultural commodity, further
explained in 7 CFR Part 1940, Subpart G, Exhibit M.
If Debtor pledges the Property to Secured Party (delivers the Property into
the possession or control of Secured Party or a designated third party),
Debtor will, upon receipt, deliver any proceeds and products of the Property
to Secured Party. Debtor will provide Secured Party with any notices,
documents, financial statements, reports, and other information relating to
the Property Debtor receives as the owner of the Property.
PERFECTION OF SECURITY INTEREST. Debtor authorizes Secured
Party to file a financing statement covering the Property. Debtor will
comply with, facilitate, and otherwise assist Secured Party in connection
with obtaining possession or control over the Property for purposes of
perfecting Secured Party’s interest under the Uniform Commercial Code.
INSURANCE. Xxxxxx agrees to keep the Property insured against the risks
reasonably associated with the Property until the Property is released from
this Agreement. Debtor will maintain this insurance in the amounts Secured
Party requires. Debtor may choose the insurance company, subject to
Secured Party’s approval, which will not be unreasonably withheld. Debtor
will have the insurance provider name Secured Party as loss payee on the
insurance policy. Debtor will give Secured Party and the insurance provider
immediate notice of any loss. Secured Party may apply the insurance
proceeds toward the Secured Debts. Secured Party may require additional
security as a condition of permitting any insurance proceeds to be used to
repair or replace the Property. If Secured Party acquires the Property in
damaged condition, Xxxxxx’s rights to any insurance policies and proceeds
will pass to Secured Party to the extent of the Secured Debts. Debtor will
immediately notify Secured Party of the cancellation or termination of
insurance. If Xxxxxx fails to keep the Property insured, or fails to provide
Secured Party with proof of insurance, Secured Party may obtain insurance
to protect Secured Party’s interest in the Property. The insurance may
include coverages not originally required of Debtor, may be written by a
company other than one Debtor would choose, and may be written at a
higher rate than Debtor could obtain if Debtor purchased the insurance.
AUTHORITY TO PERFORM. Debtor authorizes Secured Party to do
anything Secured Party deems reasonably necessary to protect the Property
and Secured Party’s interest in the Property. If Xxxxxx fails to perform any
of Debtor’s duties under this Agreement, Secured Party is authorized,
without notice to Debtor, to perform the duties or cause them to be
performed. These authorizations include, but are not limited to, permission
to pay for the repair, maintenance, and preservation of the Property and take
any action to realize the value of the Property. Secured Party’s authority to
perform for Debtor does not create an obligation to perform, and Secured
Party’s failure to perform will not preclude Secured Party from exercising
any other rights under the law or this Agreement.
If Secured Party performs for Debtor, Secured Party will use reasonable
care. Reasonable care will not include any steps necessary to preserve rights
against prior parties or any duty to take action in connection with the
management of the Property.
If Secured Party comes into possession of the Property, Secured Party will
preserve and protect the Property to the extent required by law. Secured
Party’s duty of care with respect to the Property will be satisfied if Secured
Party exercises reasonable care in the safekeeping of the Property or in the
selection of a third party in possession of the Property.
Secured Party may enforce the obligations of an account debtor or other
person obligated on the Property. Secured Party may exercise Debtor’s
rights with respect to the account debtor’s or other person’s obligations to
make payment or otherwise render performance to Debtor, and enforce any
security interest that secures such obligations.
PURCHASE MONEY SECURITY INTEREST. If the Property includes
items purchased with the Secured Debts, the Property purchased with the
Secured Debts will remain subject to Secured Party’s security interest until
the Secured Debts are paid in full. Payments on any non-purchase money
loan also secured by this Agreement will not be applied to the purchase
money loan. Payments on the purchase money loan will be applied first to
the non-purchase money portion of the loan, if any, and then to the purchase
money portion in the order in which the purchase money Property was
acquired. If the purchase money Property was acquired at the same time,
payments will be applied in the order Secured Party selects. No security
interest will be terminated by application of this formula.
DEFAULT. Debtor will be in default if:
| (1) | Debtor (or Borrower, if not the same) fails to make a payment in full when due; |
|
| (2) | Debtor fails to perform any condition or keep any covenant on this or any debt or agreement Debtor has with Secured Party; |
|
| (3) | a default occurs under the terms of any instrument or agreement evidencing or pertaining to the Secured Debts; |
|
| (4) | anything else happens that either causes Secured Party to reasonably believe that Secured Party will have difficulty in collecting the Secured Debts or significantly impairs the value of the Property. |
REMEDIES. After Debtor defaults, and after Secured Party gives any
legally required notice and opportunity to cure the default, Secured Party
may at Secured Party’s option do any one or more of the following:
| (1) | make all or any part of the Secured Debts immediately due and accrue interest at the highest post-maturity interest rate; |
|
| (2) | require Debtor to gather the Property and make it available to Secured Party in a reasonable fashion; |
|
| (3) | enter upon Xxxxxx’s premises and take possession of all or any part of Debtor’s property for purposes of preserving the Property or its value and use and operate Debtor’s property to protect Secured Party’s interest, all without payment or compensation to Debtor; | |
| (4) | use any remedy allowed by state or federal law, or provided in any agreement evidencing or pertaining to the Secured Debts. |
If Secured Party repossesses the Property or enforces the obligations of an
account debtor, Secured Party may keep or dispose of the Property as
provided by law. Secured Party will apply the proceeds of any collection or
disposition first to Secured Party’s expenses of enforcement, which includes
reasonable attorneys’ fees and legal expenses to the extent not prohibited by
law, and then to the Secured Debts. Debtor (or Borrower, if not the same)
will be liable for the deficiency, if any.
By choosing any one or more of these remedies, Secured Party does not
give up the right to use any other remedy. Secured Party does not waive a
default by not using a remedy.
WAIVER. Debtor waives all claims for damages caused by Secured Party’s
acts or omissions where Secured Party acts in good faith.
acts or omissions where Secured Party acts in good faith.
NOTICE AND ADDITIONAL DOCUMENTS. Where notice is required,
Xxxxxx agrees that 10 days prior written notice will be reasonable notice to
Debtor under the Uniform Commercial Code. Notice to one party is notice
to all parties. Xxxxxx agrees to sign, deliver, and file any additional
documents and certifications Secured Party considers necessary to perfect,
continue, or preserve Debtor’s obligations under this Agreement and to
confirm Secured Party’s lien status on the Property.
