after a default. If Lender waives a default, it may enforce a later
default. Any consent or waiver under, or amendment of, this Agreement

RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION ARISING
IN CONNECTION WITH THE OBLIGATIONS OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH OR RELATED
OR
INCIDENTAL TO THE DEALINGS OF THE PARTIES HERETO OR ANY OF THEM WITH RESPECT
TO
ANY OBLIGATION, OR THE TRANSACTIONS RELATED THERETO, IN EACH CASE WHETHER
NOW
EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING, AND WHETHER FOUNDED IN CONTRACT OR TORT OR
OTHERWISE; AND EACH PARTY HEREBY AGREES AND CONSENTS THAT ANY SUCH CLAIM,
DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION SHALL BE DECIDED BY COURT TRIAL WITHOUT
A
JURY, AND THAT ANY PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT MAY FILE AN ORIGINAL COUNTERPART
OR A
COPY OF THIS SECTION WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE CONSENT OF
THE

JURY. EACH PARTY REPRESENTS AND WARRANTS THAT IT HAS REVIEWED THIS
WAIVER, HAS DETERMINED FOR ITSELF THE NECESSITY TO REVIEW THE SAME WITH ITS
LEGAL COUNSEL, AND KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY WAIVES ALL RIGHTS TO A JURY
TRIAL.
13. Reference
Provision. The parties prefer that any dispute between them be
resolved in litigation subject to a Jury Trial Waiver set forth above, but
the
California Supreme Court has held that pre-dispute Jury Trial Waivers not
authorized by statute are unenforceable. This Reference Provision will be
applicable unless: (i) the California Supreme Court holds that a pre-dispute
Jury Trial Waiver provision similar to that set forth above is valid or
enforceable; (ii) the California Legislature enacts a statute which becomes
law,
authorizing pre-dispute Jury Trial Waivers of the type set forth above and,
as a
result, such waivers become enforceable, or (iii) the Jury Trial Waiver set
forth above is otherwise determined to be enforceable.
13.1 Other
than (i) nonjudicial foreclosure of security interests in real or personal
property, (ii) the appointment of a receiver or (iii) the exercise of
other provisional remedies (any of which may be initiated pursuant to applicable
law), any controversy, dispute or claim (each, a “Claim”) between the parties
arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other document, instrument
or agreement between the Bank and the undersigned (collectively in this Section,
the “Loan Documents”), will be resolved by a reference proceeding in California
in accordance with the provisions of Section 638 et seq. of the California
Code
of Civil Procedure (“CCP”), or their successor sections, which shall constitute
the exclusive remedy for the resolution of any Claim, including whether the
Claim is subject to the reference proceeding. Except as otherwise
provided in the Loan Documents, venue for the reference proceeding will be
in
the Superior Court or Federal District Court in the County or District where
the
real property, if any, is located or in a County or District where venue
is
otherwise appropriate under applicable law (the “Court”)
13.2 The
referee shall be a retired Judge or Justice selected by mutual written agreement
of the parties. If the parties do not agree, the referee shall be
selected by the presiding judge of the Court (or his or her
representative). A request for appointment of a referee may be heard
on an ex parte or expedited basis, and the parties agree that irreparable
harm
would result if ex parte relief is not granted. The referee shall be
appointed to sit with all the powers provided by law. Pending
appointment of the referee, the Court has power to issue temporary or
provisional remedies.
13.3 The
parties agree that time is of the essence in conducting the reference
proceedings. Accordingly, the referee shall be requested, subject to
change in the time periods specified herein for good cause shown, to (a)
set the
matter for a status and trial-setting conference within 15 days after the
date
of selection of the referee, (b) if practicable, try all issues of law or
fact
within 90 days after the date of the conference and (c) report a statement
of
decision within 20 days after the matter has been submitted for
decision.
13.4 The
referee will have power to expand or limit the amount and duration of
discovery. The referee may set or extend discovery deadlines or
cutoffs for good cause, including a party’s failure to provide requested
discovery for any reason whatsoever. Unless otherwise ordered based
upon good cause shown, no party shall be entitled to “priority” in conducting
discovery, depositions may be taken by either party upon seven days written
notice, and all other discovery shall be responded to within 15 days after
service. All disputes relating to discovery which cannot be resolved
by the parties shall be submitted to the referee whose decision shall be
final
and binding.
13.5 Except
as
expressly set forth in this Agreement, the referee shall determine the manner
in
which the reference proceeding is conducted including the time and place
of
hearings, the order of presentation of evidence, and all other questions
that
arise with respect to the course of the reference proceeding. All
proceedings and hearings conducted before the referee, except for trial,
shall
be conducted without a court reporter, except that when any party so requests,
a
court reporter will be used at any hearing conducted before the referee,
and the
referee will be provided a courtesy copy of the transcript. The party
making such a request shall have the obligation to arrange for and pay the
court
reporter. Subject to the referee’s power to award costs to the
prevailing party, the parties will equally share the cost of the referee
and the
court reporter at trial.
13.6 The
referee shall be required to determine all issues in accordance with existing
case law and the statutory laws of the State of California. The rules
of evidence applicable to proceedings at law in the State of California will
be
applicable to the reference proceeding. The referee shall be
empowered to enter equitable as well as legal relief, provide all temporary
or
provisional remedies, enter equitable orders that will be binding on the
parties
and rule on any motion which would be authorized in a trial, including without
limitation motions for summary judgment or summary adjudication. The
referee shall issue a decision and pursuant to CCP Section 644. The
referee’s decision shall be entered by the Court as a judgment or an order in
the same manner as if the action had been tried by the Court. The
final judgment or order or from any appealable decision or order entered
by the
referee shall be fully appealable as provided by law. The parties
reserve the right to findings of fact, conclusions of laws, a written statement
of decision, and the right to move for a new trial or a different judgment,
which new trial, if granted, is also to be a reference proceeding under this
provision.
13.7 If
the
enabling legislation which provides for appointment of a referee is repealed
(and no successor statute is enacted), any dispute between the parties that
would otherwise be determined by reference procedure will be resolved and
determined by arbitration. The arbitration will be conducted by a
retired judge or Justice, in accordance with the California Arbitration Act,
CCP
Sections 1280 through 1294.2. The limitations with respect to
discovery set forth above shall apply to any such arbitration
proceeding.
13.8 THE
PARTIES RECOGNIZE AND AGREE THAT ALL DISPUTES RESOLVED UNDER THIS REFERENCE
PROVISION WILL BE DECIDED BY A REFEREE AND NOT BY A JURY. AFTER
CONSULTING (OR HAVING HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO CONSULT) WITH COUNSEL OF THEIR
OWN
CHOICE, EACH PARTY KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY AND FOR THEIR MUTUAL BENEFIT
AGREES
THAT THIS REFERENCE PROVISION WILL APPLY TO ANY DISPUTE BETWEEN THEM WHICH
ARISES OUT OF OR IS RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE LOAN
DOCUMENTS.
14. Term
and Termination. This Agreement shall become effective upon the
execution and delivery hereof by Borrower and Lender and shall continue in
full
force and effect until the Termination Date. Upon the Termination Date, the
unpaid balance of the Obligations shall be due and payable without demand
or
notice. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, the obligations of Borrower
to
indemnify Lender with respect to the expenses, damages, losses, costs and
liabilities described in Section 9 shall survive until all applicable statute
of
limitations periods with respect to actions that may be brought against Lender
have run.
15. Other
Agreements.
15.1 Security
Agreements. Any security agreements, liens and/or security
interests securing payment of any obligations of Borrower owing to Lender
or its
affiliates also secure the Obligations, and are valid and subsisting and
are not
adversely affected by execution of this Agreement. An Event of
Default under this Agreement constitutes a default under other outstanding
agreements between Borrower and Lender or its affiliates;
15.2 Publicity. Subject
to approval of Borrower, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, Lender
reserves the right to issue press releases, advertisements, and other
promotional materials describing any successful outcome of services provided
on
Borrower's behalf. Borrower agrees that Lender shall have the right
to identify Borrower by name in those materials.
16. General
Provisions
16.1 Successors
and Assigns. This Agreement binds and is for the benefit of the
successors and permitted assigns of each party. Borrower may not
assign this Agreement or any rights under it without Lender's prior written
consent which may be granted or withheld in Lender's
discretion. Lender has the right, without the consent of or notice to
Borrower, to sell, transfer, negotiate, or grant participation in all or
any
part of, or any interest in, Lender's obligations, rights and benefits under
this Agreement.
16.2 Time
of Essence. Time is of the essence for the performance of all
obligations in this Agreement.
16.3 Amendments
in Writing, Integration. All amendments to this Agreement must be
in writing and signed by Borrower and Lender; provided, that, any amendment
to
correct typographical, grammar or similar errors shall be made pursuant to
a
letter from the Lender to the Borrower. This Agreement represents the
entire agreement about this subject matter, and supersedes prior negotiations
or
agreements. All prior agreements, understandings, representations,
warranties, and negotiations between the parties about the subject matter
of
this Agreement merge into this Agreement and the Loan Documents.
16.4 Counterparts. This
Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by
different parties on separate counterparts, each of which, when executed
and
delivered, are an original, and all taken together, constitute one
Agreement.
16.5 Survival. All
covenants, representations and warranties made in this Agreement continue
in
full force while any Obligations remain outstanding. The obligations
of Borrower in Section 9 to indemnify Lender will survive until all
statutes of limitations for actions that may be brought against Lender have
run.
