3. RIGHTS AND REMEDIES ON DEFAULT.

Without limiting any rights or remedies Secured Party may have pursuant to this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, under applicable law or otherwise, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default:

(a) Secured Party may take any and all actions and avail itself of any and all rights and remedies available to Secured Party under this Agreement, any other Loan Document, under law or in equity (including all rights of a secured creditor under the Code), and the rights and remedies herein and therein provided shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by applicable law or otherwise.

(b) Secured Party may, but shall be under no obligation to, (i) notify all appropriate parties that the Collateral, or any part thereof, has been assigned to Secured Party, (ii) demand, xxx for, collect and give receipts for and take all necessary or desirable steps to collect any Collateral or Proceeds in its or Debtor’s name, and apply any such collections against the Obligations as Secured Party may elect, (iii) take control of any Collateral and any cash and non-cash Proceeds of any Collateral, (iv) enforce, compromise, extend, renew, settle or discharge any rights or benefits of Debtor with respect to or in and to any Collateral, or deal with the Collateral as Secured Party may deem advisable, and (v) make any compromises, exchanges, substitutions or surrenders of Collateral as Secured Party deems necessary or proper in its reasonable discretion, including extending the time of payment, permitting payment in installments, or otherwise modifying the terms or rights relating to any of the Collateral, all of which may be effected without notice to, consent of, or any other action of Debtor and without otherwise discharging or affecting the Obligations, the Collateral or the security interests granted to Secured Party under this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

(c) Secured Party may file proofs of loss and claim with respect to any of the Collateral with the appropriate insurer, and may endorse in its own and Debtor's name any checks or drafts constituting Proceeds of insurance. Any Proceeds of insurance received by Secured Party may be applied by Secured Party against payment of all or any portion of the Obligations as Secured Party may elect in its reasonable discretion.

(d) Secured Party may take possession of the Collateral and, without removal, render Debtor's Equipment unusable. Upon Secured Party's request, Debtor shall assemble the Collateral and make it available to Secured Party at a place or places to be designated by Secured Party.

(e) Secured Party may and without any notice to, consent of or any other action by Debtor (such notice, consent or other action being expressly waived), set-off or apply (i) any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held by or for the account of Secured Party or any Affiliate of Secured Party, and (ii) any Indebtedness at any time owing by Secured Party or any Affiliate of Secured Party to or for the credit or the account of Debtor, to the repayment of the Obligations irrespective of whether any demand for payment of the Obligations has been made.

(f) (i) Secured Party may, without demand, advertising or notice, all of which Debtor hereby waives (except as the same may be required by the Code or other applicable law and is not waivable under the Code or such other applicable law), at any time or times in one or more public or private sales or other dispositions, for cash, on credit or otherwise, at such prices and upon such terms as determined by Code (provided such price and terms are commercially reasonable within the meaning of the Code to the extent such sale or other disposition is subject to the Code requirements that such sale or other disposition must be commercially reasonable), (A) sell, lease, license or otherwise dispose of any and all Collateral, or (B) deliver and grant options to a third party to purchase, lease, license or otherwise dispose of any and all Collateral. Secured Party may sell, lease, license or otherwise dispose of any Collateral in its then-present condition or following any preparation or processing deemed necessary by Secured Party in its reasonable discretion. To the extent permitted by applicable law, Secured Party may be the purchaser at any such public or private sale or other disposition of

Collateral, and in such case Secured Party may make payment of all or any portion of the purchase price therefor by the application of all or any portion of the Obligations due to Secured Party to the purchase price payable in connection with such sale or disposition. Secured Party may, if it deems it reasonable, postpone or adjourn any public sale of any Collateral from time to time by an announcement at the time and place of the sale to be so postponed or adjourned without being required to give a new notice of sale or disposition; provided, however, that Secured Party shall provide Debtor with written notice of the time and place of such postponed or adjourned sale. Debtor hereby acknowledge and agree that Secured Party's compliance with any requirements of applicable law in connection with a sale, lease, license or other disposition of Collateral will not be considered to adversely affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale, lease, license or other disposition of such Collateral.

(ii) Debtor shall remain liable for all amounts of the Obligations remaining unpaid as a result of any deficiency of the Proceeds of the sale, lease, license or other disposition of Collateral after such Proceeds are applied to the Obligations as provided in this Agreement.

(iii) Secured Party may sell, lease, license or otherwise dispose of the Collateral without giving any warranties and may specifically disclaim any and all warranties, including warranties of title, possession, merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose. Debtor hereby acknowledges and agrees that Secured Party's disclaimer of any and all warranties in connection with a sale, lease, license or other disposition of Collateral will not be considered to adversely affect the commercial reasonableness of any such disposition of the Collateral. If Secured Party sells, leases, licenses or otherwise disposes of any of the Collateral on credit, Debtor will be credited only with payments actually made in cash by the recipient of such Collateral and received by Secured Party and applied to the Obligations. If any Person fails to pay for Collateral acquired pursuant this Section 3.3(f) on credit, Secured Party may re-offer the Collateral for sale, lease, license or other disposition.

(g) (i) All rights of Debtor to exercise any of the voting and other consensual rights which it would otherwise be entitled to exercise in accordance with the terms hereof with respect to any Investment Property, and to receive any dividends, payments, and other distributions which it would otherwise be authorized to receive and retain in accordance with the terms hereof with respect to any Investment Property, shall immediately, at the election of Secured Party (without requiring any notice) cease, and all such rights shall thereupon become vested solely in Secured Party, and Secured Party (personally or through an agent) shall thereupon be solely authorized and empowered, without notice, to (a) transfer and register in its name, or in the name of its nominee, the whole or any part of the Investment Property, it being acknowledged by Debtor that any such transfer and registration may be effected by Secured Party through its irrevocable appointment as attorney-in-fact pursuant to Section 3.3(g)(ii), (b) exchange certificates and/or instruments representing or evidencing Investment Property for certificates and/or instruments of smaller or larger denominations, (c) exercise the voting and all other rights as a holder with respect to all or any portion of the Investment Property (including all economic rights, all control rights, authority and powers, and all status rights of Debtor as a member or as a shareholder (as applicable) of the issuer of such Investment Property), (d) collect and receive all dividends and other payments and distributions made thereon, (e) notify the parties obligated on any Investment Property to make payment to Secured Party of any amounts

due or to become due thereunder, (f) endorse instruments in the name of Debtor to allow collection of any Investment Property, (g) enforce collection of any of the Investment Property by suit or otherwise, and surrender, release, or exchange all or any part thereof, or compromise or renew for any period (whether or not longer than the original period) any liabilities of any nature of any Person with respect thereto, (h) consummate any sales of Investment Property or exercise any other rights as set forth in Section 3.3(f), (i) otherwise act with respect to the Investment Property as though Secured Party were the outright owner thereof, and (j) exercise any other rights or remedies Secured Party may have under the other Loan Documents, the Code, other applicable law, or otherwise.

(ii) DEBTOR HEREBY IRREVOCABLY CONSTITUTES AND APPOINTS SECURED PARTY AS ITS PROXY AND ATTORNEY-IN-FACT FOR DEBTOR WITH RESPECT TO ALL OF DEBTOR'S INVESTMENT PROPERTY WITH THE RIGHT, DURING THE CONTINUANCE OF AN EVENT OF DEFAULT, WITHOUT NOTICE, TO TAKE ANY OF THE FOLLOWING ACTIONS: (A) TRANSFER AND REGISTER IN SECURED PARTY'S NAME, OR IN THE NAME OF ITS NOMINEE, THE WHOLE OR ANY PART OF THE INVESTMENT PROPERTY, (B) VOTE THE INVESTMENT PROPERTY, WITH FULL POWER OF SUBSTITUTION TO DO SO, (C) RECEIVE AND COLLECT ANY DIVIDEND OR ANY OTHER PAYMENT OR DISTRIBUTION IN RESPECT OF, OR IN EXCHANGE FOR, THE INVESTMENT PROPERTY OR ANY PORTION THEREOF, TO GIVE FULL DISCHARGE FOR THE SAME AND TO INDORSE ANY INSTRUMENT MADE PAYABLE TO DEBTOR FOR THE SAME, (D) EXERCISE ALL OTHER RIGHTS, POWERS, PRIVILEGES, AND REMEDIES (INCLUDING ALL ECONOMIC RIGHTS, ALL CONTROL RIGHTS, AUTHORITY AND POWERS, AND ALL STATUS RIGHTS OF DEBTOR AS A MEMBER OR AS A SHAREHOLDER (AS APPLICABLE) OF THE ISSUER OF SUCH INVESTMENT PROPERTY) TO WHICH A HOLDER OF THE INVESTMENT PROPERTY WOULD BE ENTITLED (INCLUDING, WITH RESPECT TO THE INVESTMENT PROPERTY, GIVING OR WITHHOLDING WRITTEN CONSENTS OF MEMBERS OR SHAREHOLDERS, CALLING SPECIAL MEETINGS OF MEMBERS OR SHAREHOLDERS, AND VOTING AT SUCH MEETINGS), AND (E) TAKE ANY ACTION AND EXECUTE ANY INSTRUMENT WHICH LENDER MAY DEEM NECESSARY OR ADVISABLE TO ACCOMPLISH THE PURPOSES OF THIS AGREEMENT.

(iii) In order to further effect the foregoing transfer of rights in favor of Secured Party, during the continuance of an Event of Default, Debtor hereby authorizes and instructs each issuer of Investment Property pledged by Debtor to comply with any instruction received by such issuer from Secured Party without any other or further instruction from Debtor, and Debtor acknowledges and agrees that each such issuer shall be fully protected in so complying, and to pay any dividends, distributions, or other payments with respect to any of the Investment Property directly to Secured Party.

(iv) Upon exercise of any proxy set forth herein, all prior proxies given by Debtor with respect to any Investment Property, as applicable (other than to Secured Party), are hereby revoked, and no subsequent proxies (other than to Secured Party) will be given with respect to any Investment Property by Debtor, unless Secured Party otherwise subsequently agrees in writing. Secured Party, as proxy, will be empowered and may exercise the irrevocable

proxy to vote the other Investment Property at any and all times during the existence of an Event of Default, including at any meeting of shareholders or members, as the case may be, however called, and at any adjournment thereof, or in any action by written consent, and may waive any notice otherwise required in connection therewith. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Secured Party shall have no agency, fiduciary, or other implied duties to Debtor, any issuer of Investment Property, or any other Person when acting in its capacity as such proxy or attorney-in-fact. Debtor hereby waives and releases any claims that it may otherwise have against Secured Party with respect to any breach, or alleged breach, of any such agency, fiduciary, or other duty.

(v) Any transfer to Secured Party or its nominee, or registration in the name of Secured Party or its nominee, of the whole or any part of the Investment Property shall be made solely for purposes of effectuating voting or other consensual rights with respect to the Investment Property in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and is not intended to effectuate any transfer of ownership of any of the Investment Property. Notwithstanding the delivery by Secured Party of any instruction to any issuer of Investment Property or any exercise by Secured Party of an irrevocable proxy or otherwise, Secured Party shall not be deemed the owner of, or assume any obligations or any liabilities whatsoever of the owner or holder of, any Investment Property unless and until Secured Party expressly accepts such obligations in a duly authorized and executed writing and agrees in writing to become bound by the applicable organizational documents or otherwise becomes the owner thereof under applicable law (including through a sale as described in Section 3.3(f)). The execution and delivery of this Agreement shall not subject Secured Party to, or transfer or pass to Secured Party, or in any way affect or modify, the liability of Debtor under the organizational documents of any issuer or any related agreements, documents, or instruments or otherwise. In no event shall the execution and delivery of this Agreement by Secured Party, or the exercise by Secured Party of any rights hereunder or assigned hereby, constitute an assumption of any liability or obligation whatsoever of Debtor to, under, or in connection with any of the issuer or any related agreements, documents, or instruments or otherwise.

(h) Secured Party shall have the right in Secured Party's sole discretion to determine which rights, security, Liens or remedies Secured Party may at any time pursue, foreclose upon, relinquish, subordinate, modify or take any other action with respect to, without in any way impairing, modifying or affecting any of Secured Party's other rights, security, Liens or remedies with respect to such Property, or any of Secured Party's rights or remedies under this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

(i) Debtor agrees that Secured Party shall not have any obligation to preserve rights to any Collateral against prior parties or to marshal any Collateral of any kind for the benefit of any other creditor of Debtor or any other Person. Secured Party shall not be responsible to Debtor or any other Person for loss or damage resulting from Secured Party's failure to enforce its Liens or collect any Collateral or Proceeds or any monies due or to become due under the Obligations or any other liability or obligation of Debtor to Secured Party.
