purchaser. We agree that written notice sent to us by postpaid mail, at least
ten days before the date of any intended public sale or the date after which any
private sale or other intended disposition of the Inventory is to be made, shall
be deemed to be reasonable notice thereof. We do hereby waive all notice of any
such sale or other intended disposition if said Inventory is perishable or
threatens to decline speedily in value or is of a type customarily sold on a
recognized market. Upon the occurrence of any of the events referred to in the
first sentence of this paragraph, you may require us to assemble all or any part
of the Inventory and make it available to you at a place to be designated by
you, which is reasonably convenient to both parties. In addition, you may
peaceably, by your own means or with judicial assistance, enter our or any other
premises and take possession of the Inventory and remove or dispose of it on our
premises and we agree that we will not resist or interfere with any such action.
We hereby expressly waive demand, notice of sale (except as herein provided),
advertisement of sale and redemption before sale. The net proceeds of any such
public or private sale or other disposition as far as needed shall be applied
toward the payment and discharge of any and all of the Obligations to you,
together with all interest thereon and all reasonable costs, charges, expenses
and disbursements in connection therewith, including the reasonable fees of your
attorneys, rendering any surplus remaining to us, we, of course, to continue
liable should there be any deficiency.
This agreement is deemed made in the State of New York and is to be
governed, interpreted and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of
New York. No modification, waiver or discharge of this agreement shall be
binding upon you unless in writing, signed and subscribed by you. If you should
at any time fail to exercise any right or privilege hereunder, the same shall
not constitute a waiver on your part of exercising any right or privilege at any
subsequent time. If any taxes are imposed or if you shall be required to
withhold or pay any tax because of any transactions between us, we agree to
indemnify you and hold you harmless in respect thereto. It is agreed between us
that trial by jury is hereby waived in any action, proceeding or counterclaim
brought by either of us against the other on any matters whatsoever arising out
of or in any way connected with this agreement or our relationship created
hereby and we hereby consent to the jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of the
State of New York for a determination of any dispute as to any such matters and
authorize the service of process on us by registered mail sent to us at our

hereunder, you shall have all of the rights of a secured party pursuant to the
provisions of the Uniform Commercial Code. We agree to execute a financing
statement and any and all other instruments and documents that may now or
hereafter be provided for by the Uniform Commercial Code or other law applicable
