conditions of this Agreement and relying upon the representations and warranties
herein set forth as and when made or deemed to be
5
12
made, Lender agrees to lend to Borrower from time to time prior to the
Commitment Termination Date, the Loans; provided that the aggregate principal
amount of the Loans shall not exceed the Credit Amount at such time; provided,
further, that the aggregate principal amount of any Loan shall not exceed the
aggregate Stated Cost of the items of Eligible Equipment being financed with
such Loan; and provided, further, that the aggregate principal amount of any
Loans or portions thereof, allocated or relating to the financing of Other
Equipment shall not exceed in the aggregate twenty percent (20%) of the
aggregate principal of the Loans. If prepaid, the principal of the Loans may not
be re-borrowed.
2.2. Use of Proceeds; The Loans.
(a) Use of Proceeds. The proceeds of the Loans shall be used
solely to reimburse Borrower for the purchase of Eligible Equipment, in each
case in an amount not to exceed the Stated Cost of such Eligible Equipment. All
such Eligible Equipment which is financed or re-financed with the proceeds of
Loans shall be deemed without further action to be Financed Equipment.
(b) The Loans. The Loans shall be repayable in consecutive
monthly installments in accordance with the terms of Section 2.4. Lender may,
and is hereby authorized by Borrower to, endorse in its books and records
appropriate notations regarding Lender's interest in the Loans; provided,
however, that the failure to make, or an error in making, any such notation
shall not limit or otherwise affect the Obligations of Borrower hereunder.
2.3. Procedure for Making Loans.
(a) Notice. Whenever Borrower desires that Lender makes a Loan,
Borrower shall so notify Lender in writing (or by telephone with prompt
confirmation in writing) at least five (5) Business Days in advance of the
desired Funding Date, which notice shall be irrevocable, and shall provide
Lender with the following information:
(i) a list of the proposed Financed Equipment;
(ii) the principal amount of the requested Loan; and
(iii) the intended use of proceeds of the Loan.
Lender's obligation to make the initial Loan shall be expressly subject to the
satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Sections 3.1 and 3.2. Lender's
obligation to make each subsequent Loan shall be expressly subject to the
satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 3.2. Lender shall have the
right, exercisable at any time, to request that Borrower furnish Lender with
such additional information with respect to the Loan and the Eligible Equipment
to be financed with the Loan proceeds as Lender shall reasonably request.
(b) Loan Interest Rate. Borrower shall pay interest on the
unpaid principal amount of each Loan from the first Payment Date after the
Funding Date of such Loan until such Loan has been paid in full, at a per annum
rate of interest equal to the Basic Rate determined by Bank as of the Funding
Date for such Loan in accordance with the definition of Basic Rate. The Basic
Rate applicable to each Loan shall not be subject to change in the absence of a
manifest error. All computations of interest on Loans shall be based on a year
of 360 days comprised of twelve (12) months of thirty (30) days each.
Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, the amount of interest payable
hereunder shall not in any event exceed the maximum amount permitted by the law
applicable to interest charged on commercial loans.
(c) Loan Factor and Stipulated Loss Value Calculation. On each
Funding Date, Lenders shall establish the Loan Factor and Stipulated Loss Values
with respect to such Loan. The Loan Factor shall be calculated in a manner to
fully amortize the Loan over the Repayment Period applicable to such Loan in
equal periodic installments of principal and interest. The Loan Factor and
Stipulated Loss Values applicable to each
6
13
Loan shall be set forth in the Loan Agreement Supplement to be executed by
Borrower with respect to each Loan and shall be conclusive in the absence of a
manifest error.
(d) Disbursement. Subject to the satisfaction of the conditions
set forth in Sections 3.1 and 3.2 with respect to the initial Loan and the
satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 3.2 with respect to each
subsequent Loan, Bank shall disburse such Loan by internal transfer to
Borrower's deposit account with Bank.
(e) Termination of Commitment to Lend. Notwithstanding anything
in the Loan Documents, Lender's obligation to lend the undisbursed portion of
the Credit Amount to Borrower hereunder shall terminate on the earlier of (i) at
the Lender's sole election, the occurrence and continuance of any Default or
Event of Default hereunder, and (ii) the Commitment Termination Date.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lender's obligation to lend the undisbursed
portion of the Credit Amount to Borrower shall terminate if, in Lender's sole
judgment, there has been a material adverse change in the general affairs,
management, results of operations, condition (financial or otherwise) or
prospects of Borrower, whether or not arising from transactions in the ordinary
course of business, or there has been any material adverse deviation by Borrower
from the business plan of Borrower presented to and not disapproved by Lender,
since the date of this Agreement.
2.4. Amortization of Principal and Interest; Interim Payment; Final
Payment; Loan Fee.
(a) Principal and Interest Payments On Payment Dates. Borrower
shall make payments monthly in advance of principal and accrued interest for
each Loan (collectively, "Scheduled Payments"), commencing on the first Business
Day of the first month following the Funding Date with respect to such Loan and
continuing thereafter during the Repayment Period on the first Business Day of
each calendar month (each a "Payment Date"), in an amount equal to the Loan
Factor multiplied by the Loan Amount for such Loan as of such Payment Date. In
any event, all unpaid principal and accrued interest shall be due and payable in
full on the last Payment Date with respect to such Loan.
(b) Interim Payment. In addition to the Scheduled Payments, on
the Funding Date for each Loan (unless the Funding Date is the first Business
Day of the month) Borrower shall pay to Bank an amount (the "Interim Payment")
equal to the initial Loan Amount multiplied by the product of (i) the quotient
derived from dividing the initial Loan Factor with respect to such Loan by 30,
and (ii) the number of days from the Funding Date of such Loan until the first
Payment Date with respect to such Loan.
(c) Final Payment. Unless a Loan is prepaid in full, on the
Maturity Date with respect to such Loan, Borrower shall pay, in addition to the
unpaid principal and accrued interest and all other amounts due on such date
with respect to such Loan, an amount equal to the Final Payment with respect to
such Loan.
(d) Loan Fee. The Loan Fee is non-refundable, but shall be
applied first, to the due diligence expenses of Lender and fees and expenses of
Lender's counsel in connection with the preparation and negotiation of this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the balance, if any, shall be applied
(using the ratio of each Loan Amount to the total Credit Amount) toward the
first payment due from Borrower to Lender hereunder on each Funding Date. The
foregoing notwithstanding, if the Loan Fee is insufficient to pay the reasonable
due diligence expenses of Lender and reasonable fees and expenses of Lender's
counsel in connection with such preparation and negotiation, Borrower shall pay
such additional amounts so owing for such fees and expenses to Lender. If

2.5. Prepayments.
(a) Prepayment Upon an Event of Loss. If any Financed Equipment
is subject to an Event of Loss and Borrower is required to or elects to prepay
the Loan with respect to such Financed Equipment pursuant to Section 6.9, then
such Loan shall be prepaid to the extent and in the manner provided in such
section.
(b) Mandatory Prepayment Upon an Acceleration. If the Loans are
accelerated following the occurrence of an Event of Default or otherwise (other
than following an Event of Loss), then Borrower shall immediately pay to Lender
(i) all unpaid Scheduled Payments with respect to each Loan due prior to the
date of prepayment, (ii) the Stipulated Loss Value with respect to each Loan,
and (iii) all other sums, if any, that shall have become due and payable
hereunder with respect to any Loan.
(c) No Other Prepayment. Borrower may not prepay any Loan
except upon the occurrence of an event described in Section 2.5(a) or (b) above
in which event the prepayment shall be made as described in such sections.
2.6. Other Payment Terms.
(a) Place and Manner. Borrower hereby authorizes Bank, and
irrevocably constitutes and appoints Bank (and any officer or agent thereof,
with full power of substitution) as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact with
full irrevocable power and authority in the place and stead of Borrower and in
the name of Borrower or in its own name (which appointment is coupled with an
interest), to debit directly from any banking account maintained by Borrower
with Lender the full amount (or any portion thereof) of the Obligations of
Borrower to Lender hereunder (including all principal, accrued interest,
commitment and other fees, and other amounts chargeable to Borrower under this
Agreement) when and as the same shall become due and payable. It shall be
Borrower's responsibility to ensure that there are sufficient funds in a deposit
account with Bank on the dates that payments are due, or to provide for another
manner of payment. If amounts in the deposit account are insufficient, amounts
due and payable shall be paid in immediately available funds in such alternate
manner as Borrower may choose.
(b) Date. Whenever any payment due hereunder shall fall due on
a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next
succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall be included in the
computation of interest or fees, as the case may be.
(c) Default Rate. If either (i) any amounts required to be paid
by Borrower under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents (including
principal, interest, the Final Payment payable with respect to any Loan, and any
fees or other amounts) remain unpaid after such amounts are due, or (ii) an
Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Borrower shall pay interest on
the aggregate, outstanding balance hereunder from the date due or from the date
of the Event of Default, as applicable, until such past due amounts are paid in
full or until all Events of Default are cured, as applicable, at a per annum
rate equal to the Default Rate. All computations of such interest shall be based
on a year of 360 days.
2.7. Minimum Funding Amount; Maximum Number of Fundings. Except with
the prior consent of Lender, in Lender's sole discretion, (i) the amount of the
requested Loan shall not be less than the Minimum Funding Amount; provided, that
if this Agreement specifies different Loan Margins for New Equipment and Used
Equipment and if Borrower is requesting Loans for both New Equipment and Used
Equipment on the same Funding Date, the aggregate of the two requested Loans
shall be computed in determining whether the Minimum Funding Amount has been
reached; (ii) there shall not be more than one funding of a Loan in any one
calendar month; and (iii) the aggregate number of Loans shall not exceed six (6)
during the term hereof.
2.8. Crediting Payments. The receipt by Bank of any wire transfer of
funds, check, or other item of payment shall be immediately applied
conditionally to reduce Obligations, but shall not be considered a payment on
account unless such wire transfer is of immediately available federal funds and
is made to the appropriate deposit account of Bank or unless and until such
check or other item of payment is honored when
8
15
presented for payment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
herein, any wire transfer or payment received by Bank after 11:00 a.m.
California time shall be deemed to have been received by Bank as of the opening
of business on the immediately following Business Day.
2.9. Additional Costs. In case any law, regulation, treaty or
official directive or the interpretation or application thereof by any court or
any governmental authority charged with the administration thereof or the
compliance with any guideline or request of any central bank or other
governmental authority (whether or not having the force of law):
(a) subjects Lender to any tax with respect to payments of
principal or interest or any other amounts payable hereunder by Borrower or
otherwise with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby (except for taxes
on the overall net income of Lender imposed by the United States of America or
any political subdivision thereof); or
(b) imposes, modifies or deems applicable any deposit
insurance, reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against assets held
by, or deposits in or for the account of, or loans by Lender; or
(c) imposes upon Lender any other condition with respect to its
performance under this Agreement,
and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to Lender, reduce
the income receivable by Lender or impose any expense upon Lender with respect
to any loans, Lender shall notify Borrower thereof. Borrower agrees to pay to
Lender the amount of such increase in cost, reduction in income or additional
expense as and when such cost, reduction or expense is incurred or determined,
upon presentation by Lender of a statement in the amount and setting forth
Lender's calculation thereof, which statement shall be deemed true and correct
absent manifest error.
2.10. Term. This Agreement shall become effective upon acceptance by
Lender and shall continue in full force and effect for a term ending on the
Maturity Date of the last Loan made hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
Lender shall have the right to terminate this Agreement immediately and without
notice upon the occurrence of an Event of Default.

a covenant) to deliver to Lender each item required to be delivered to Lender as
a condition to each Loan, if such Loan is advanced. Borrower expressly agrees

shall not constitute a waiver by Lender of Borrower's obligation to deliver such
item.
4. Creation of Security Interest.
4.1. Grant of Security Interest. Borrower grants to Lender a valid,
first priority, continuing security interest in all presently existing and
hereafter acquired or arising Collateral in order to secure prompt, full

17
and complete payment of any and all Obligations and in order to secure prompt,
full and complete performance by Borrower of each of its covenants and duties
under each of the Loan Documents.

financed through Loans and any and all other Property generally described or
referred to as Collateral which is hereafter acquired by Borrower shall ipso
facto, and without any further conveyance, assignment or act on the part of

granted as fully and completely as though specifically described herein. The
list of Financed Equipment shall be amended and supplemented on each Funding
Date by a Loan Agreement Supplement to incorporate all Financed Equipment
financed with the Loan advanced on such Funding Date; provided, however, the
failure to so amend and supplement the list of Financed Equipment shall not
affect the grant by Borrower to Lender of the security interest in such Financed
Equipment pursuant to this Section 4. This Agreement and the other documents in
connection herewith may be otherwise supplemented and amended from time to time,
as required by Lender, to reflect additional Collateral to be subject to the
security interest granted pursuant to this Section 4.
4.3. Duration of Security Interest. Lender's security interest in
the Collateral shall continue until the payment in full and the satisfaction of
all Obligations, whereupon such security interest shall terminate; provided,
however, if any item of Financed Equipment is subject to an Event of Loss, then
following the prepayment of the Loan with respect to such item pursuant to
Section 2.5, Lender shall release its security interest in such item of Financed
Equipment. Lender shall, at Borrower's sole cost and expense, execute such
further documents and take such further actions as may be necessary to effect
the release contemplated by this Section 4.3, including duly executing and
delivering termination statements for filing in all relevant jurisdictions under
the Code.
4.4. Possession of Collateral. So long as no Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing, Borrower shall remain in full possession, enjoyment
and control of the Collateral (except only as may be otherwise required by
Lender for perfection of their security interest therein) and shall be entitled
to manage, operate and use the same and each part thereof with the rights and
franchises appertaining thereto; provided, however, that the possession,
enjoyment, control and use of the Collateral shall at all times be subject to
the observance and performance of the terms of this Agreement.
4.5. Markings on the Collateral. At Lender's reasonable request at
any time during the Term of the Loan (including any extension thereof), Borrower

plaque or other marking to be supplied by Lender which reads substantially as
follows:
Silicon Valley Bank

Such plaque or other marking shall not be removed (or if removed or damaged such
plaque or other marking shall be replaced) until the security interest in favor
of Lender in such item of Collateral is terminated pursuant to this Agreement.
4.6. Delivery of Additional Documentation Required. Borrower shall
from time to time execute and deliver to Bank at the request of Lender, all
financing statements and other documents Lender may reasonably request, in form
satisfactory to Lender, to perfect and continue Lender's perfected security
interests in the Collateral and in order to consummate fully all of the
transactions contemplated under the Loan Documents.
4.7. Right to Inspect. Lender (through any of its officers,
employees, or agents) shall have the right, upon reasonable prior notice, and
subject to agreeing to be bound by Borrower's confidentiality agreement, from
time to time during Borrower's usual business hours, to inspect Borrower's Books
and to make copies thereof and to check, test, and appraise the Collateral in

the replacement value
14
21
of the Collateral (as new) or (ii) the Stipulated Loss Value of the Loan Amount

inception date of such insurance.

at least Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000), One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) per
occurrence. The "all risk" insurance shall: (a) name Lender as sole loss payee
with respect to the Collateral, (b) provide each insurer's waiver of its right
of subrogation against Lender and Borrower, and (c) provide that such insurance
(i) shall not be invalidated by any action of, or breach of warranty by,

primary without a right of contribution of Lender's insurance, if any, or any
obligation on the part of Lender to pay premiums of Borrower, and (D) shall
contain a clause requiring the insurer to give Lender at least thirty (30) days
prior written notice of its cancellation (other than cancellation for
non-payment for which ten (10) days notice shall be sufficient). Borrower shall,

being lost, stolen, destroyed, damaged beyond repair, rendered permanently unfit
for use, or seized by a governmental authority for any reason whatsoever at any
time until the expiration or termination of the Term.
(b) If during the Term any item of Financed Equipment becomes
Obsolete or is lost, stolen, destroyed, damaged beyond repair, rendered
permanently unfit for use, or seized by a governmental authority for any reason
whatsoever for a period equal to at least the remainder of the Term (an "Event
of Loss"), then in each case Lender shall receive from the proceeds of insurance
maintained pursuant to Section 6.8, from any award paid by the seizing
governmental authority or, to the extent not received from the proceeds of
insurance or award or both, from Borrower, on or before the Payment Date next
succeeding such Event of Loss for each such item of Financed Equipment subject
to an Event of Loss, an amount equal to the sum of: (i) all accrued and unpaid
Scheduled Payments with respect to such Loan attributable to such item of
Financed Equipment due prior to the next such Payment Date with respect to such
Loan, (ii) a prepayment in an amount equal to the Stipulated Loss Value and

including interest at the Default Rate with respect to any past due amounts. On
the date of receipt by Lender of the amount specified above with respect to each
such item of Financed Equipment subject to an Event of Loss, this Agreement
shall terminate as to such Financed Equipment. Except as provided in Section
6.9(c), any proceeds of insurance maintained by Borrower pursuant to Section 6.8
and received by Borrower shall be paid to Bank promptly upon their receipt by
Borrower up to the amounts due under this Section. If any proceeds of insurance
or awards received from governmental authorities are in excess of the amount
owed under this Section 6.9, Lender shall promptly remit to Borrower the amount
in excess of the amount owed to Lender.
(c) So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing, any proceeds of insurance maintained pursuant to Section 6.8
received by Lender or Borrower with respect to an item of Financed Equipment,
the repair of which is practicable, shall, at the election of Borrower, be
applied either to the repair or replacement of such Financed Equipment or, upon
Bank's receipt of evidence of the repair or replacement of the Financed
Equipment reasonably satisfactory to Lender, to the reimbursement of Borrower
for the cost of such repair or replacement. All replacement parts and equipment
acquired by Borrower in replacement of Financed Equipment pursuant to this
Section 6.9(c) shall immediately become part of the Financed Equipment upon
acquisition by Borrower. Borrower shall take such actions and provide such
documentation as may be reasonably requested by Lender to protect and preserve
their first priority security interest and otherwise to avoid any impairment of

replacement.

clause); or suspend operation of Borrower's business.

other encumbrance of any kind with respect to any of the Financed Equipment,
whether now owned or hereafter acquired, except the Permitted Liens.

money or extend credit to or for the benefit of Borrower. In addition, upon the
occurrence and during the continuance of an Event Of Default, Lender shall have
the rights, options, duties and remedies of a secured party as permitted by law
and, in addition to and without limitation of the foregoing, Lender may, at its
election, without notice of election and without demand, do any one or more of
the following, all of which are authorized by Borrower:
(a) Declare all Obligations, whether evidenced by this
Agreement, by any of the other Loan Documents, or otherwise, including the
Stipulated Loss Value of the Loan Amount of each Loan, immediately due and
payable (provided that upon the occurrence of an Event of Default described in
Section 8.11 or 8.12 all Obligations shall become immediately due and payable
without any action by Lender);
17
24
(b) Without notice to or demand upon Borrower, make such
payments and do such acts as Lender consider necessary or reasonable to protect
their security interest in the Collateral. Borrower agrees to assemble the
Collateral if Lender so requires, and to make the Collateral available to Lender
as Lender may designate. Borrower authorizes Lender to enter the premises where
the Collateral is located, to take and maintain possession of the Collateral, or
any part of it, and to pay, purchase, contest, or compromise any encumbrance,
charge, or lien which in Lender's determination appears to be prior or superior
to their security interest and to pay all expenses incurred in connection
therewith. With respect to any of Borrower's owned premises, Borrower hereby
grants Lender a license to enter into possession of such premises and to occupy
the same, without charge, for up to one hundred twenty (120) days in order to
exercise any of Lender's rights or remedies provided herein, at law, in equity,
or otherwise;
(c) Without notice to Borrower, set off and apply to the
Obligations any and all (i) balances and deposits of Borrower held by Bank, or
(ii) indebtedness at any time owing to or for the credit or the account of
Borrower;
(d) Ship, reclaim, recover, store, finish, maintain, repair,
prepare for sale, advertise for sale, and sell (in the manner provided for
herein) the Collateral. Lender is hereby granted a license or other right,
solely pursuant to the provisions of this Section 9.1, to use, without charge,
Borrower's labels, patents, copyrights, rights of use of any name, trade
secrets, trade names, trademarks, service marks, and advertising matter, or any
Property of a similar nature, as it pertains to the Collateral, in completing
production of, advertising for sale, and selling any Collateral and, in
connection with Lender's exercise of their rights under this Section 9.1,
Borrower's rights under all licenses and all franchise agreements shall inure to
Lender's benefit;
(e) Sell the Collateral at either a public or private sale, or
both, by way of one or more contracts or transactions, for cash or on terms, in
such manner and at such places (including Borrower's premises) as Lender
determines is commercially reasonable;
(f) Lender may credit bid and purchase at any public sale; and
(g) Any deficiency that exists after disposition of the
Collateral as provided above will be paid immediately by Borrower.
9.2. Effect of Sale. Any sale, whether under any power of sale
hereby given or by virtue of judicial proceedings, shall operate to divest all
right, title, interest, claim and demand whatsoever, either at law or in equity,
of Borrower in and to the Property sold, and shall be a perpetual bar, both at
law and in equity, against Borrower, its successors and assigns, and against any
and all Persons claiming the Property sold or any part thereof under, by or
through Borrower, its successors or assigns.
9.3. Power of Attorney in Respect of the Collateral. Borrower does
hereby irrevocably appoint Lender (which appointment is coupled with an
interest) on the occurrence and continuance of a Default or an Event of Default,
the true and lawful attorney in fact of Borrower with full power of
substitution, for it and in its name: (a) to ask, demand, collect, receive,
receipt for, xxx for, compound and give acquittance for any and all rents,
issues, profits, avails, distributions, income, payment draws and other sums in
which a security interest is granted under Section 4 with full power to settle,
adjust or compromise any claim thereunder as fully as if Lender was a Borrower
itself, (b) to receive payment of and to endorse the name of Borrower to any
items of Collateral (including checks, drafts and other orders for the payment
of money) that come into Lender's possession or under Lender's control, (c) to
make all demands, consents and waivers, or take any other action with respect
to, the Collateral, (d) in Lender's discretion to file any claim or take any
other action or proceedings, either in their own names or in the name of
Borrower or otherwise, which Lender may reasonably deem necessary or appropriate
to protect and preserve the right, title and interest of Lender in and to the
Collateral, or (e) to otherwise act with respect thereto as though Lender were
the outright owner of the Collateral.
9.4. Lender's Expenses. If Borrower fails to pay any amounts or
furnish any required proof of payment due to third persons or entities, as
required under the terms of this Agreement, then Lender may do any
18
25
or all of the following: (a) make payment of the same or any part thereof; (b)
set up such reserves in Borrower's loan account as Lender deems necessary to
protect Lender from the exposure created by such failure; or (c) obtain and
maintain insurance policies of the type discussed in Section 6.8 of this
Agreement, and take any action with respect to such policies as Lender deems
prudent. Any amounts paid or deposited by Lender shall constitute Lender's
Expenses, shall be immediately due and payable, and shall bear interest at the
then applicable rate hereinabove provided, and shall be secured by the
Collateral. Any payments made by Lender shall not constitute an agreement by
Lender to make similar payments in the future or a waiver by Lender of any Event
of Default under this Agreement.
9.5. Remedies Cumulative. Lender's rights and remedies under this
Agreement, the Loan Documents, and all other agreements shall be cumulative.
Lender shall have all other rights and remedies not inconsistent herewith as
provided under the Code, by law, or in equity. No exercise by Lender of one
right or remedy shall be deemed an election, and no waiver by Lender of any
Event of Default on Borrower's part shall be deemed a continuing waiver. No
delay by Lender shall constitute a waiver, election, or acquiescence by it.
9.6. Application of Collateral Proceeds. The proceeds and/or avails
of the Collateral, or any part thereof, and the proceeds and the avails of any
remedy hereunder (as well as any other amounts of any kind held by Lender at the
time of or received by Lender after, the occurrence of an Event of Default
hereunder) shall be paid to and applied as follows:
(a) First, to the payment of out-of-pocket costs and expenses,
including all amounts expended to preserve the value of the Collateral, of
foreclosure or suit, if any, and of such sale and the exercise of any other
rights or remedies, and of all proper fees, expenses, liability and advances,
including reasonable legal expenses and attorneys' fees, incurred or made
hereunder by Lender;
(b) Second, to the payment to Lender of the amount then owing
or unpaid on the Loans for Scheduled Payments, the Stipulated Loss Value of the
Loan Amount, and all other Obligations with respect to all Loans, and in case
such proceeds shall be insufficient to pay in full the whole amount so due,
owing or unpaid upon the Loans, then to the unpaid interest thereon, then to
unpaid principal thereof, then to the Stipulated Loss Value of the Loan Amount
with respect to all Loans, and then to the payment of other amounts then payable
to Lender under any of the Loan Documents; and
(c) Third, to the payment of the surplus, if any, to Borrower,
its successors and assigns, or to whomsoever may be lawfully entitled to receive
the same.
9.7. Reinstatement of Rights. If Lender shall have proceeded to
enforce any right under this Agreement or any other Loan Document by
foreclosure, sale, entry or otherwise, and such proceedings shall have been
discontinued or abandoned for any reason or shall have been determined
adversely, then and in every such case (unless otherwise ordered by a court of
competent jurisdiction), Lender shall be restored to its former position and
rights hereunder with respect to the Property subject to the security interest
created under this Agreement.

guarantees at any time held by Lender on which Borrower may in any way be
liable.
10.2. Lender's Liability for Collateral. So long as Lender complies
with its obligations, if any, under Section 9207 of the Code, Lender shall not
in any way or manner be liable or responsible for: (a) the safekeeping of the
Collateral; (b) any loss or damage thereto occurring or arising in any manner or
fashion from any cause; (c) any diminution in the value thereof; or (d) any act
or default of any carrier, warehouseman, bailee, forwarding agency, or other
Person whomsoever. All risk of loss, damage or destruction of the Collateral
shall be borne by Borrower.
19
26
10.3. Indemnification. Whether or not the transactions contemplated
hereby shall be consummated:
(a) General Indemnity. Borrower shall pay, indemnify, and
hold Lender and its officers, directors, employees, counsel, partners, agents
and attorneys-in-fact (each, an "Indemnified Person") harmless from and against
any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions,
judgments, suits, costs, charges, expenses or disbursements (including Lender's
Expenses and reasonable attorney's fees and the allocated cost of in-house
counsel) of any kind or nature whatsoever with respect to the execution,
delivery, enforcement, performance and administration of this Agreement and any

action or proceeding before any court or other Governmental Authority relating

Person with respect to Indemnified Liabilities arising from the gross negligence
or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Person.

in connection with or arising out of any pending or threatened investigation,
litigation or proceeding, or any action taken by any Person, with respect to any
Environmental Claim arising out of or related to any Property owned, leased or
operated by Borrower. No action taken by legal counsel chosen by Lender in
defending against any such investigation, litigation or proceeding or requested
remedial, removal or response action (except for actions which constitute fraud,
willful misconduct, gross negligence or material violations of law) shall
vitiate or in any way impair Borrower's obligation and duty hereunder to

cooperate with Borrower respecting the defense of any matter indemnified
hereunder, except insofar as and to the extent that their respective interests
may be adverse to Borrower's, in Lender's sole discretion.

other Person is entitled to rely on any site visit, observation, or testing by
any Lender. Except as otherwise provided by law, Lender owes no duty of care to

party of, any Hazardous Materials or any other adverse condition affecting any
site or Property. Lender shall not be obligated to disclose to Borrower or any
