destruction or damage (cumulatively "Loss or Damage") to all or any part of
the Collateral. In the event of any Loss or Damage, Owner will either restore

Collateral.
14. INSURANCE. The Collateral will be kept insured for its full value
against all hazards including loss or damage caused by fire, collision, theft

are altered or cancelled in any manner. The insurance policies shall name
Lender as a loss payee and provide that no act or omission of Owner or any
other person shall affect the right of Lender to be paid the insurance
proceeds pertaining to the loss or damage of the Collateral. In the event
Owner fails to acquire or maintain insurance, Lender (after providing notice
as may be required by law) may in its discretion procure appropriate
insurance coverage upon the Collateral and charge the insurance cost as an
advance of principal under the promissory note. Owner shall furnish Lender
with evidence of insurance indicating the required coverage. Lender may act
as attorney-in-fact for Owner in making and settling claims under insurance
policies, cancelling any policy or endorsing Owner's name on any draft or
negotiable instrument drawn by any insurer.

suits and other legal proceedings (cumulatively "Claims") pertaining to its
business operations or the Collateral including, but not limited to, those
arising from Lender's performance of Owner's obligations with respect to the
Collateral. Owner, upon the request of Lender, shall hire legal counsel to

connection therewith. In the alternative, Lender shall be entitled to employ
its own legal counsel to defend such Claims at Owner's cost.

waiver on any other occasion. Owner's Obligations under this Agreement shall

party or any of its rights against any Owner, third party or collateral.
