7. PAYMENT OF PREMIUMS, TAXES, CHARGES, LIENS AND ASSESSMENTS. Debtor agrees to pay, prior to delinquency, all insurance premiums, taxes, charges, liens and assessments against the Collateral and Proceeds, and upon the failure of Debtor to do so, Xxxxxx at its option may pay any of them and shall be the sole judge of the legality or validity thereof and the amount necessary to discharge the same. Any such payments made by Xxxxxx shall be obligations of Debtor to Xxxxxx, due and payable immediately upon demand, together with interest at a rate of 10% per year, and shall be secured by the Collateral and Proceeds, subject to all terms and conditions of this Agreement.
8. EVENTS OF DEFAULT. The occurrence of any of the following shall constitute an "Event of Default” under this Agreement: (a) any event defined as an Event of Default, under the Note, subject to any applicable grace or cure rights; (b) any representation or warranty made by Debtor herein shall prove to be incorrect in any material respect when made; or (c) Debtor shall fail to observe or perform any obligation or agreement contained herein and fail to cure any such default within thirty (30) days after written notice thereof from Xxxxxx.
9. REMEDIES. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, Xxxxxx shall have, and may exercise without demand, any and all rights, powers, privileges and remedies granted to a secured party upon default under the California Uniform Commercial Code or otherwise provided by law, including without limitation the right to contact all persons or entities obligated to Debtor on any Collateral or Proceeds and to instruct such persons or entities to deliver all Collateral and/or Proceeds directly to Xxxxxx. All rights, powers, privileges and remedies of Xxxxxx shall be cumulative. No delay, failure or discontinuance of Xxxxxx in exercising any right, power, privilege or remedy hereunder shall affect or operate as a waiver of such right, power, privilege or remedy; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power, privilege or remedy preclude, waive or otherwise affect any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power, privilege or remedy. Any waiver, permit, consent or approval of any kind by Xxxxxx of any default hereunder, or any such waiver of any provisions or conditions hereof, must be in writing and shall be effective only to the extent set forth in writing. It is agreed that public or private sales, for cash or on credit, to a wholesaler or retailer or investor, or user of property of the types subject to this Agreement, or public auction, are all commercially reasonable since differences in the sales prices generally realized in the different kinds of sales are ordinarily offset by the differences in the costs and credit risks of such sales. While an Event of Default exists: (a) Debtor will deliver to Xxxxxx from time to time, as requested by Xxxxxx, current lists of all Collateral and Proceeds in its possession; (b) Debtor will not dispose of any of the Collateral or Proceeds (other than inventory sold to third parties in the ordinary course of business) except on terms approved by Xxxxxx; (c) at Xxxxxx’x request, Debtor will assemble and deliver all Collateral and Proceeds, and books and records pertaining thereto, to Xxxxxx at a reasonably convenient place designated by Xxxxxx; and (d) Xxxxxx may, without notice to any Debtor, enter onto each Debtor’s premises and take possession of the Collateral. With respect to any sale by Xxxxxx of any Collateral subject to this Agreement, Debtor hereby expressly grants to Xxxxxx the right to sell such Collateral using any or all of Debtor’s trademarks, trade names, trade name rights and/or proprietary labels or marks.
10. DISPOSITION OF COLLATERAL AND PROCEEDS. Any proceeds of any disposition of any of the Collateral or Proceeds, or any part thereof, occurring after the occurrence of any Event of Default, may be applied by Xxxxxx to the payment of expenses incurred by Xxxxxx in connection with such disposition, including without limitation reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs, and the balance of such proceeds may be applied by Xxxxxx toward the payment of the Indebtedness in such order of application as Xxxxxx may from time to time elect.
11. NOTICES. All notices, requests and demands required under this Agreement must be in writing, addressed each party at the address set forth under the Loan Agreement or to such other address as either party may designate by written notice to the other party, and shall be deemed to have been given or made as follows: (a) if personally delivered, upon delivery; (b) if sent by mail, upon the earlier of the date of receipt or three (3) days after deposit in the U.S. mail, first class and postage prepaid; and (c) if sent by email, upon receipt.
12. COSTS, EXPENSES AND ATTORNEYS’ FEES. Debtor shall pay to Xxxxxx promptly upon demand (and in any event within 10 days of demand) the full amount of all payments, advances, charges, costs and expenses, including without limitation reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs, expended or incurred by Xxxxxx in exercising any right, power, privilege or remedy conferred by this Agreement or in the enforcement thereof, whether incurred at the trial or appellate level, in an arbitration proceeding or otherwise, and including any of the foregoing incurred in connection with any bankruptcy proceeding (including without limitation, any adversary proceeding, contested matter or motion brought by Xxxxxx or any other person or entity) relating to Debtor or in any way affecting any of the Collateral or Proceeds or Xxxxxx’x ability to exercise any of its rights or remedies with respect thereto. All of the foregoing shall be paid by Debtor with interest from the date of demand until paid in full at the rate of 10.0% per year.
13. SUCCESSORS. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors, administrators, legal representatives, successors and assigns of the parties.
14. AMENDMENT. This Agreement may be amended or modified only in a writing signed by Xxxxxx and Debtor.
15. SEVERABILITY OF PROVISIONS. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or any remaining provisions of this Agreement.
16. GOVERNING LAW AND CONSENT TO JURISDICTION. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA. DEBTOR HEREBY CONSENTS, AND SUBMITS, TO THE PERSONAL JURISDICTION OF ANY STATE OR FEDERAL COURT LOCATED IN THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA IN CONNECTION WITH ANY LEGAL ACTION RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT AND WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MIGHT HAVE IN CONNECTION WITH SUCH ACTION TO ASSERT THE DOCTRINE OF FORUM NON CONVENIENS OR TO OBJECT TO VENUE.
