Borrower hereby ratifies, to the extent permitted by law, all that KEF shall lawfully and in good faith do or cause to be done by reason of and in compliance with this section. Borrower shall provide written notice to KEF at least thirty days prior to any contemplated change in Borrower’s name, jurisdiction of organization or chief executive office address.
(b) Borrower shall have possession of the Collateral except where expressly otherwise provided in this Agreement or where KEF chooses to perfect its security interest by possession in addition to the filing of a financing statement.

Borrower shall comply with all applicable laws. Borrower shall immediately notify KEF, in writing, upon becoming aware of any existing or threatened investigation, claim or action by any governmental authority that could adversely affect Equipment, KEF or this Agreement. Borrower, at its own expense, shall make such alterations, additions or modifications to Equipment as may be required from time to time to meet the requirements of applicable law or a governmental body (each, a “Required Alteration”). All such Required Alterations shall immediately, and without further act, be deemed to constitute “Equipment” and be fully subject to this Agreement as if originally financed hereunder. Borrower shall not make any other alterations to Equipment without KEF’s prior written consent.
9. Repairs and Maintenance. Borrower, at Borrower’s sole cost and expense, shall (a) keep Equipment in good repair, operating condition, appearance and working order in compliance with the manufacturer’s recommendations and Borrower’s standard practices (but in no event less than industry practices), (b) properly service all components of Equipment following the manufacturer’s written operating and servicing procedures, (c) enter into and keep in full force and effect during the Term a maintenance agreement covering the Equipment with the manufacturer, or a manufacturer- approved maintenance organization, to maintain, service and repair such Equipment, as otherwise required herein (but an alternate source of maintenance may be used by Borrower with KEF’s prior written consent), (d) upon KEF’s request furnish KEF with an executed copy of any such maintenance agreement, and (e) replace any part of the Equipment that becomes unfit or unavailable for use from any cause (whether or not such replacement is covered by a maintenance agreement) with a replacement part that, in KEFs sole opinion, is of the same manufacture, value, remaining useful life and utility as the replaced part immediately preceding the replacement, assuming that such replaced part was in the condition required by this Agreement. Replacement parts shall be free and clear of all liens, constitute Equipment and be fully subject to this Agreement as if originally financed hereunder.
10. Lease and Assignment. (a) BORROWER SHALL NOT, WITHOUT KEF’S PRIOR WRITTEN CONSENT, (i) SELL, ASSIGN, TRANSFER, PLEDGE, HYPOTHECATE OR OTHERWISE DISPOSE OF THE COLLATERAL OR ANY INTEREST THEREIN, (ii) RENT OR LEND EQUIPMENT TO ANYONE OR (iii) PERMIT EQUIPMENT TO BE USED BY ANYONE OTHER THAN BORROW OF BORROWER’S AFFILIATES AND THEIR RESPECTIVE QUALIFIED EMPLOYEES. BORROWER ACKNOWLEDGES IT REMAINS PRIMARILY LIABLE FOR ALL OBLIGATIONS ARISING HEREUNDER NOTWITHSTANDING USE BY AN AFFILIATE.
(b) KEF, at any time with or without notice to Borrower, may sell, transfer, assign and/or grant a security interest in all or any part of KEF’s interest in the Loan Documents or any Equipment (each, a “KEF Transfer”). Any purchaser, transferee, assignee or secured party of KEF (each a “KEF Assignee”) shall have and may exercise all of KEF’s rights under the applicable Loan Documents and hereunder with respect to the Equipment to which any such KEF Transfer relates, and Borrower shall not assert against any KEF Assignee any claim that Borrower may have against KEF; provided, Borrower may assert any such claim in a separate action against KEF.

Following such KEF Transfer, the term “KEF” shall be deemed to include or refer to each KEF Assignee. Borrower will provide reasonable assistance to KEF to complete any transaction contemplated by this subsection (b).
(c) Subject to the restriction on assignment contained in subsection (a), the Loan Documents shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, the successors and assigns of the parties thereto including, without limitation, each person who becomes bound thereto as a “new debtor” as set forth in the UCC.

11. Risk of Loss; Damage to Equipment. (a) Borrower shall bear the entire risk of loss (including without limitation, theft, destruction, disappearance of or damage to Equipment from any cause whatsoever), whether or not insured against, during the Term of each Note. No such loss shall relieve Borrower of the obligation to pay Installments or of any other obligation under any Loan Documents.
(b) If any Equipment is lost, stolen or damaged beyond repair, or is confiscated or seized, or to use and/or title thereof is requisitioned to someone other than Borrower (any such event being a “Total Loss”), Borrower shall immediately notify KEF of such event. On the next Installment payment date following the occurrence of the Total Loss, at KEF’s option, Borrower shall either (i) replace the Equipment that suffered a Total Loss with equipment that is free of all liens and, in KEF’s sole opinion, is of the same manufacture, value, remaining useful life and utility as the replaced Equipment immediately preceding the replacement, assuming such replaced Equipment was in the condition required by this Agreement or (ii) pay to KEF any unpaid Installments and other charges due prior to the payment date specified in such notice plus an amount, with respect to an item of Equipment, equal to the pro rata portion of the Installments attributable to such item of Equipment under the Loan Documents after discounting those Installments to present worth as of the payment date specified in the notice on the basis of a per annum rate of discount equal to three percent from the respective dates upon which the Installments would have been paid but for the operation of this clause, together with interest on such amount at the Default Rate from the payment date specified in the notice to the date of actual payment.
(c) If KEF elects to allow replacement of Equipment as set forth in subsection (b)(i) above, such replacement equipment shall become Equipment subject to this Agreement and the security interest granted to KEF hereunder, and KEF shall release its interest in the applicable Equipment in its then condition and location, “AS IS” and “WHERE IS,” without any warranties, express or implied. Alternatively, upon KEF’s receipt of the amounts specified in subsection (b)(ii) above, KEF shall release its interest in the applicable Equipment, in its then condition and location, “AS IS” and “WHERE IS,” without any warranties, express or implied.
12. Insurance. (a) Borrower shall, at all times during the Term of each Note and at Borrower’s own cost and expense, maintain (i) insurance against all risks of physical loss or damage to Equipment for the full replacement value thereof, and
(ii) commercial general liability insurance (including blanket contractual liability coverage and products liability coverage) for personal and bodily injury and property damage per occurrence as stated in each Collateral Schedule.
(b) All insurance policies required hereunder shall include terms, and be with insurance carriers, reasonably satisfactory to KEF. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each policy shall include the following terms: (i) all physical damage insurance shall name KEF and its assigns as loss payee, (ii) all liability insurance shall name KEF and its assigns as additional insureds, (iii) the policy shall not be canceled or altered without at least thirty days’ advance notice to KEF and its assigns and (iv) coverage shall not be invalidated against KEF or its assigns because of any violation of any condition or warranty contained in any policy or application therefor by Borrower or by reason of any action or inaction of Borrower. On each anniversary of the date on which KEF funds any Note hereunder, and during the term hereof, Borrower shall deliver to KEF certificates or other proof of insurance satisfactory to KEF evidencing the coverage required by this section.
13. Taxes. Borrower shall pay when due and shall indemnify and hold harmless KEF (on an after-tax basis) from and against any and all taxes, fees, withholdings, levies, imposts, duties, assessments and charges of every kind and nature whatsoever (including any related penalties and interest) imposed upon or against KEF, any KEF Assignee, Borrower or any Collateral by any governmental authority in connection with, arising out of or otherwise related to Collateral, the Loan Documents or any Installments and receipts or earnings arising therefrom and excepting only all Federal, state and local taxes on or measured by KEF’s net income.
- 4 -
14. KEF’s Right to Perform for Borrower. If Borrower fails to perform any of its obligations contained herein, KEF may (but shall not be obligated to) itself perform such obligations, and the amount of the reasonable costs and expenses of KEF incurred in connection with such performance, together with interest on such amount from the date said amounts are expended at the Default Rate, shall be payable by Borrower to KEF upon demand. No such performance by KEF shall be deemed a waiver of any rights or remedies of KEF or be deemed to cure any Default of Borrower hereunder.
15. Default; Remedies. (a) As used herein, the term “Default” means any of the following events: (i) Borrower fails to pay any Installment or other amount due under a Note within ten days after the same shall have become due; (ii) Borrower becomes insolvent or makes an assignment for the benefit of its creditors; (iii) a receiver, trustee, conservator or liquidator of Borrower of all or a substantial part of Borrower’s assets is appointed with or without the application or consent of Borrower; (iv) a petition is filed by or against Borrower under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law; (v) Borrower violates or fails to perform any provision of either this Agreement or any other loan, credit agreement, lease or any acquisition or purchase agreement with KEF or any other party; (vi) any warranty or representation made by Borrower herein proves to have been false or misleading when made; (vii) there is a material adverse change in Borrower’s financial condition since the funding of any Note; (viii) Borrower merges or consolidates with any other corporation or entity, or sells, leases or disposes of all or substantially all of its assets without the prior written consent of KEF; (ix) Borrower, if an individual, dies or, if not an individual, is dissolved; (x) a change in control occurs in Borrower; (xi) Borrower appears, or is located in any country that appears, on any list of the U.S. Office of Foreign Assets Control or other similar list; (xii) any filing by Borrower of a termination statement for any financing statement filed by KEF while any obligations are owed by Borrower under a Note; and (xiii) any of the events listed in subsections (ii) through (xi) above occurs with respect to any Guarantor. A Default with respect to any Note shall, at KEF’s option, constitute a Default for all Notes and any other agreements between KEF and Borrower.
(b) Upon the occurrence of a Default, KEF may declare any or all of the Secured Obligations to be immediately due and payable, without demand or notice to Borrower or any Guarantor, and KEF shall have the immediate right to enforce its rights with all Collateral Schedules. The obligation and liabilities accelerated thereby shall bear interest (both before and after any judgment) until paid in full at the Default Rate. Should there occur a Default, and if a voluntary or involuntary petition under the United States Bankruptcy Code is filed by or against Borrower while such Default remains uncured, the Secured Obligations shall be automatically accelerated and due and payable and interest thereon at the Default Rate shall automatically apply as of the date of the first occurrence of the Default, without any notice, demand or action of any type on the part of KEF (including any action evidencing the acceleration or imposition of the Default Rate). The fact that KEF has, prior to the filing of the voluntary or involuntary petition under the United States Bankruptcy Code, acted in a manner which is inconsistent with the acceleration and imposition of such rate shall not constitute a waiver of this provision or estop KEF from asserting or enforcing KEF’s rights hereunder.
(c) In addition, and after a Default, KEF may do any one or more of the following as EF in its sole discretion shall elect: (i) proceed by appropriate court action to enforce performance by Borrower of the related Note or to recover damages, including incidental and consequential damages, for the breach thereof; (ii) cause Borrower, at its expense, to promptly assemble the Collateral and deliver the same to KEF at such place as KEF may designate in writing; (iii) enter upon the premises of Borrower or other premises where any Collateral may be located and, without notice to Borrower and with or without legal process, take possession of and remove all or any such Collateral without liability to Borrower by reason of such entry or taking possession; (iv) sell the Collateral at public or private sale or hold, keep idle or lease to others any Collateral; and (v) exercise any other right or remedy available to KEF under applicable law. Borrower shall be liable for all reasonable costs, expenses, and legal fees incurred in enforcing KEF’s rights under this Agreement, before or in connection with litigation or arbitration and for any deficiency in the disposition of the Equipment. KEF’s recovery hereunder shall in no event exceed the maximum recovery permitted by law.
- 5 -
(d) If a Default occurs, Borrower hereby agrees that ten days’ prior notice to Borrower of any public sale or of the time after which a private sale may be negotiated shall be conclusively deemed reasonable notice. None of KEF’s rights or remedies hereunder are intended to be exclusive, but each shall be cumulative and in addition to any other right or remedy referred to hereunder or otherwise available to KEF at law or in equity, and no express or implied waiver by KEF of any Default shall constitute a waiver of any other Default or a waiver of any of KEF’s rights.
(e) With respect to any exercise by KEF of its right to recover and/or dispose of any Collateral, Borrower acknowledges and agrees that KEF may dispose of Collateral on an “AS IS, WHERE IS” basis, in compliance with applicable law and with such preparation (if any) as KEF determines to be commercially reasonable. Borrower shall remain liable for any deficiency in the disposition of the Collateral, and any purchase by KEF of the Collateral may be through a credit to some or all of Borrower’s obligations under any Note.
16. Notices. All notices and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be transmitted by hand, overnight courier or certified mail (return receipt requested), US postage prepaid. Such notices and other communications shall be addressed to the respective party at the address first set forth above or at such other address as any party may, from time to time, designate by notice duly given in accordance with this section. Such notices and other communications shall be effective upon receipt or, in the case of mailing in accordance with the terms of this section, the earlier of receipt or three days after mailing.
17. Indemnity. Borrower shall indemnify and hold harmless KEF and each KEF Assignee, on an after tax basis, from and against any and all liabilities, causes of action, claims, suits, penalties, damages, losses, costs or expenses (including attorneys’ fees), obligations, liabilities, demands and judgments (collectively, a “Liability”) arising out of or in any way related to: (a) Borrower’s failure to perform any covenant under the Loan Documents, (b) the untruth of any representation or warranty made by Borrower under the Loan Documents or (c) injury to persons, property or the environment including any Liability based on strict liability in tort, negligence, breach of warranties or Borrower’s failure to comply fully with applicable law or regulatory requirements; provided, that the foregoing indemnity shall not extend to any Liability to the extent resulting solely from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of KEF.
18. Fees and Expenses. Borrower shall pay all reasonable costs and expenses of KEF, including, without limitation, attorneys’ and other professional fees, returned check or non-sufficient funds charges, the fees of any collection agencies and appraisers and all other costs and expenses related to any sale or lease of Equipment (including storage costs) incurred by KEF in enforcing any of the terms, conditions or provisions hereof or in protecting KEF’s rights hereunder.
19. Financial and Other Data; Covenants. (a) During the Term hereof, Borrower shall furnish KEF (i) as soon as available, and in any event within one hundred twenty days after the last day of each fiscal year, financial statements of Borrower and each Guarantor and (ii) from time to time as KEF may reasonably request, other financial reports, information or data (including federal and state income tax returns) and quarterly or interim financial statements of Borrower and each Guarantor. All such information shall be audited (or if audited information is not available, compiled or reviewed) by an independent certified public accountant.
(b) For so long as any financial covenants shall be in effect in any agreement between Borrower and KEYBANK NATIONAL ASSOCIATION (as amended, restated or modified after the date hereof, the “Financial Covenants”), the Borrower shall comply with all such Financial Covenants.
(c) If any agreement (or any part thereof) containing Financial Covenants shall expire, or be canceled or terminated, or otherwise cease to be binding upon Borrower during the Term of a Note (a “Terminating Event”), Borrower agrees that the Financial Covenants in effect under such agreement immediately before the Terminating Event shall continue to be in effect under such Note(s) as if the Terminating Event had not occurred. It is the express intention of KEF and BORROWER that the Financial Covenants shall continue to be effective with respect to all Notes between KEF and Borrower until the date on which Borrower’s obligations under the Note are fully paid and performed.
