SECTION 7. RISK OF LOSS AND INSURANCE
Debtor shall bear all risk of loss with respect to the Collateral. The injury to or loss of Collateral, either partial or total, shall not release Debtor from payment or other performance hereof. Debtor agrees to obtain and keep in force property insurance on the Collateral with a lender’s loss payable endorsement in favor of Secured Party and commercial general liability insurance naming Secured Party as additional insured, and such other insurance as Secured Party may require from time to time.

All such policies shall provide to Secured Party a minimum of thirty (30) days written notice of cancellation. Debtor shall furnish to Secured Party copies of such policies, or other evidence of such policies satisfactory to Secured Party. If Debtor fails to obtain or maintain in force such insurance or fails to furnish such evidence, Secured Party is authorized, but not obligated, to purchase any or all such insurance protecting such interest as Secured Party deems appropriate against such risks and for such coverage and for such amounts, including either the loan amount or value of the Collateral, all at its discretion, and at Debtor’s expense, in accordance with the terms of the Loan Agreement. In such event, Debtor agrees to reimburse Secured Party for the cost of such insurance and Secured Party may add such cost to the Obligations. Debtor shall bear the risk of loss to the extent of any deficiency in the effective insurance coverage with respect to loss or damage to any of the Collateral. Debtor hereby assigns to Secured Party the proceeds of all property insurance covering the Collateral up to the amount of the Obligations and directs any insurer to make payments directly to Secured Party. Debtor hereby appoints Secured Party its attorney-in-fact, which appointment shall be irrevocable and coupled with an interest for so long as Obligations are unpaid, to file proof of loss and/or any other forms required to collect from any insurer any amount due from any damage to or destruction of Collateral, to agree to and bind Debtor as to the amount of said recovery, to designate any payees of such recovery, to grant releases to insurer, to grant subrogation rights to any insurer, and to endorse any settlement check or draft.

At its option, Secured Party may discharge taxes, liens, security interests or other encumbrances at any time levied or placed on Collateral. Debtor agrees to reimburse Secured Party, on demand, for any such payment made by Secured Party. Any amounts so paid shall be added to the Obligations.
SECTION 9. FINANCING STATEMENTS, CERTIFICATES OF TITLE, POWER OF ATTORNEY.
No financing statement (other than any filed or approved by Secured Party) covering any Collateral is on file in any public filing office. Debtor authorizes the filing by Secured Party at any time and from time to time of one or more financing statements and amendments thereto covering the Collateral in form satisfactory to Secured Party (and which may describe the Collateral as all assets of Debtor), agrees to deliver certificates of title on which Secured Party’s lien has been indicated covering any Collateral subject to a certificate of title statute, and will pay all costs and expenses of filing or applying for the same. Debtor hereby constitutes and appoints Secured Party the true and lawful attorney of Debtor with full power of substitution to take any and all appropriate action and to execute any and all documents, instruments or applications that may be necessary or desirable to accomplish the purpose and carry out the terms of this Agreement. The foregoing power of attorney is coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable until all of the Obligations have been paid in full. Neither Secured Party nor anyone acting on its behalf shall be liable for acts, omissions, errors in judgment, or mistakes in fact in such capacity as attorney-in-fact. Debtor ratifies all acts of Secured Party as attorney-in- fact. Debtor agrees to take such other actions, at Debtor’s expense, as might be requested for the perfection, continuation and assignment, in whole or in part, of the security interests granted herein and to assure and preserve Secured Party’s intended priority position. If Debtor shall hold or acquire a commercial tort claim, Debtor will immediately notify Secured Party in writing thereof, such notice to provide the particulars of such claim and grant to Secured Party a security interest therein and in the proceeds thereof. If certificates, passbooks, or other documentation or evidence is/are issued or outstanding as to any of the Collateral, Debtor will cause the security interests of Secured Party to be properly protected, including perfection by notation thereon or delivery thereof to Secured Party.

The remedies herein provided are cumulative and are not exclusive of any remedies provided by law, in equity, or in other Loan Documents.
SECTION 27. WAIVERS BY DEBTOR
Debtor agrees not to assert against Secured Party as a defense (legal or equitable), as a set-off, as a counterclaim, or otherwise, any claims Debtor may have against any seller or lessor that provided personal property or services relating to any part of the Collateral or against any other party liable to Secured Party for all or any part of the Obligations. Debtor waives all exemptions and homestead rights with regard to the Collateral. Debtor waives any and all rights to any bond or security which might be required by applicable law prior to the exercise of any of Secured Party’s remedies against any Collateral. All rights of Secured Party and security interests hereunder, and all obligations of Debtor hereunder, shall be absolute and unconditional, not discharged or impaired irrespective of (and regardless of whether Debtor receives any notice of): (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Loan Document; (ii) any change in the time, manner or place of payment or performance, or in any term, of all or any of the Obligations or the Loan Documents or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to any departure from any Loan Document; or (iii) any exchange, insufficiency, unenforceability, enforcement, release, impairment or non-perfection of any Collateral, or any release of or modifications to or insufficiency, unenforceability or enforcement of the obligations of any guarantor or other obligor. To the extent permitted by law, Debtor hereby waives any rights under any valuation, stay, appraisement, extension or redemption laws now existing or which may hereafter exist and which, but for this provision, might be applicable to any sale or disposition of the Collateral by Secured Party; and any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of any party with respect to the Obligations.

Nothing contained herein shall require Debtor to indemnify Secured Party for any Damages resulting from Secured Party’s gross negligence or its willful misconduct. The indemnity provided for herein shall survive payment of the Obligations and shall extend to the officers, directors, employees and duly authorized agents of Secured Party. In the event Secured Party incurs any Damages arising out of or in any way relating to the transaction contemplated by the Loan Documents (including any of the matters referred to in this section), the amounts of such Damages shall be added to the Obligations, shall bear interest, to the extent permitted by law, at the interest rate borne by the Obligations from the date incurred until paid and shall be payable on demand.
