Remedies.
a. When an Event of Default occurs, and at any time thereafter, Secured Party may declare all
or a part of the Indebtedness immediately due and payable and may proceed to enforce payment of
same and to exercise any and all of the rights and remedies provided by the Code, as well as all
other rights and remedies possessed by Secured Party under this Security Agreement or otherwise at
law or in equity. Secured Party may require Debtor to assemble the Collateral and make it
available to Secured Party at any place to be designated by Secured Party which is reasonably
convenient to both parties. For purposes of the notice requirements of the Code, Secured Party and
Debtor agree that notice given at least five (5) days prior to the related action hereunder is
reasonable. Secured Party shall be entitled to immediate possession of the Collateral and all
books and records evidencing same and shall have authority to enter upon any premises, upon which
said items may be situated, and remove same therefrom. Expenses of retaking, holding, preparing
for sale, selling, or the like (“Collection Costs”), shall include, without limitation, Secured
Party’s reasonable attorneys’ fees and all such expenses shall be recovered by Secured Party before
applying the proceeds from the disposition of the Collateral toward the Indebtedness. To the
extent allowed by the Code, Secured Party may use Secured Party’s discretion in applying the
proceeds of any disposition of the Collateral to the Collection Costs or to the Indebtedness and
Debtor will remain liable for any deficiency remaining after such disposition. All rights and
remedies of Secured Party hereunder are cumulative and may be exercised singly or concurrently.
The exercise of any right or remedy will not be a waiver of any other.
SECURITY AGREEMENT-
b. Secured Party, in addition to the rights and remedies provided for in the preceding
subparagraph, shall have all the rights and remedies of a secured party under the Uniform
Commercial Code as adopted by the state where the Collateral is located at the date of any such
Event of Default, and Secured Party shall be entitled to all such other rights and remedies as may
now or hereafter exist at law or in equity for the collection of the Indebtedness and the
enforcement of the covenants herein and the foreclosure of the security interest created hereby and
to resort to any remedy provided hereunder or provided by the Uniform Commercial Code as adopted in
the state where the Collateral is located at the date of an Event of Default, or by any other law
of such state, shall not
prevent the concurrent or subsequent employment of any other appropriate remedy or remedies.
c. Secured Party may remedy any default, without waiving same, or may waive any default
without waiving any prior or subsequent default.
Secured Party’s Rights.
a. This Security Agreement, Secured Party’s rights hereunder or said Indebtedness hereby
secured, may be assigned from time to time, and in any such case the assignee will be entitled to
all of the rights, privileges and remedies granted in this Security Agreement to Secured Party.
b. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Secured Party may execute, sign, endorse,
transfer or deliver, in the name of Debtor, notes, checks, drafts or other instrument for the
payment of money and receipts or any other documents necessary to evidence, perfect or realize upon
the security interest and obligations created by this Security Agreement.
c. At Secured Party’s option, Secured Party may, after notice to Debtor and Debtor’s failure
to do so within thirty (30) days after receipt of said notice, discharge taxes, liens or security
interests or other encumbrances at any time levied or placed on the Collateral, and perform or
cause to be performed Debtor’s obligations under the Collateral to maintain the same in full force
and effect. Debtor agrees to reimburse Secured Party on demand for any payment made, or expense
incurred, by Secured Party pursuant to the foregoing authorization, plus interest thereon at the
rate of interest provided for in the Note.
d. No remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to Secured Party is intended to be or shall be
exclusive of any other remedy, but every remedy herein provided is cumulative and is in addition to
every other remedy given hereunder or in any instrument executed in connection herewith, or now or
hereafter existing at law or in equity, or by statute; and every such right and remedy may be
exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient. No delay or omission by
Secured Party to exercise any right or remedy arising from any default will impair any such right
or remedy or will be construed to be a waiver thereof or of any such default or an acquiescence
therein.
Release of Security Interest. Upon full and complete payment of all sums owing and to
be owing by Debtor to Secured Party and the termination of any obligations of Debtor under the
Security Agreement, together with all costs incurred in connection therewith, at the request and
expense of Debtor, Secured Party will make, execute and deliver a reassignment of the properties
assigned hereby and of the monies, revenues, proceeds, benefits and payments, if any, that may be
owing upon the aforesaid Collateral to Debtor but without covenant or warranty, however, of any
kind or character, express or implied, and with the provisions that Secured Party will not be
required or called upon to refund or account for any payments properly made to Secured Party which
have been or may be properly applied to any Indebtedness secured or to be secured hereby.
Validity of Security Interest. No security taken hereafter as security for payment of
any part or all of the Indebtedness shall impair in any manner or effect this Security Agreement;
all such present and future additional security to be considered as cumulative security. Any of
the Collateral may be released from this Security Agreement without altering, varying or
diminishing in any way the force, effect, lien, security interest or charge of this Security
Agreement as to the Collateral not expressly released, and this Agreement shall continue as a first
lien, security interest and charge on all of the Collateral not expressly released until all sums
and indebtedness secured hereby have been paid in full.
Notices. Any notice, request or other document shall be in writing and sent by
registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid and addressed to the party

payments accruing and to accrue unto Debtor, under and by virtue of said Collateral, but it is
