28. Cross-Default. If the Client, Guarantor, or any Affiliates of Client (defined below) are in default under any other loans or advances of credit (including guaranty agreements or factoring obligations) held by the Amerisource (each an “Other Obligation”), or if there is a default in any of the terms, covenants, agreements, conditions or provisions set forth in the Note, or any other Loan Document, or any other instrument relating to the Note, or should the Amerisource conclude, in its sole reasonable discretion, that the prospect of payment of the Note, or of any Other Obligation, is impaired for any reason, then the Amerisource, at its option, may, subject to any notice and cure period in the Loan Documents, declare the entirety of the Note and any Other Obligation, together with all accrued but unpaid interest, immediately due and payable without notice, demand or presentment, or notice of intent to accelerate to the Client or any other person or party, all of which are hereby waived. The Amerisource’s failure to or delay in exercise of said option will not constitute a wavier on the part of the Amerisource of the right to exercise said option at any other time. Upon the occurrence of a default, the Amerisource shall also have the right to exercise any and all other rights, remedies and recourses now or hereinafter existing in equity, at law, by virtue of statute or otherwise, including, but not limited to, the right to foreclose any and all liens and security interests securing the Note, and/or any Other Obligation. “Affiliates of Client” means any entity in which 20% or more is owned by, or in which 20% or more voting control is held by, Client and/or any Guarantor, whether now or in the future.

Except as may be limited or prohibited by applicable law, the Client, Guarantor, and Affiliates of Client agree and acknowledge that the Loan Documents secure (a) the Note, as extended and/or modified, including interest, late charges, fees, expenses and other amounts as provided in the Note, and the other Loan Documents, (b) all other debts, obligations and liabilities of the Client, Guarantor, and/or Affiliates of Client, to the Amerisource of whatever kind or character, whether now existing or hereafter arising, secured or unsecured, direct or indirect, fixed or contingent, primary or secondary, joint or several, or both, including, without limitation, all present and future debts, obligations and liabilities of the Client, Guarantor, and/or Affiliates of Client (i) as principal, surety, endorser, guarantor, accommodation party or otherwise, (ii) arising by operation of law or otherwise, (iii) as a member of any partnership, joint venture, company, firm, trust or other association, (iv) payable to or in favor of third parties and hereafter acquired by the Amerisource with or without the knowledge, consent or insistence of the Client, Guarantor, and/or Affiliates of Client, or (v) relating to any services rendered by Amerisource for the benefit of the Client, Guarantor, and/or Affiliates of Client, including, without limitation, credit cards, treasury or cash management services all of which indebtedness is secured by the Loan Documents, and (c) all renewals, rearrangements, modifications and extensions of any of the foregoing.
