The Borrower shall have the Equipment and Inventory insured against loss or damage by fire, theft, burglary, pilferage, loss in transportation and such other hazards as the Bank shall specify, by insurers satisfactory to the Bank, in amounts satisfactory to the Bank and under policies containing loss payable and additional insured clauses satisfactory to the Bank. Any such insurance policies, or evidence thereof satisfactory to the Bank, shall be deposited with the Bank. The Borrower agrees that the Bank shall have a security interest in such policies and the proceeds thereof, and, if any loss should occur, the proceeds may be applied to the payment of the Obligations or to the replacement or restoration of the Equipment and Inventory damaged or destroyed, as the Bank may elect or direct. After the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default, the Bank shall have the right to file claims under any insurance policies, to receive any payments that may be made thereunder, and to execute any and all endorsements, receipts, releases, assignments, reassignments or other documents that may be necessary to effect the collection, compromise or settlement of any claims under any of the insurance policies.

In any suit, proceeding or action brought by or against the Bank relating to the Collateral, the Borrower will save, indemnify and keep the Bank harmless from and against all expense, loss or damage suffered by reason of any defense, setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or reduction of liability whatsoever of any obligor thereunder, arising out of a breach by the Borrower of any obligation thereunder or arising out of any other agreement, indebtedness or liability at any time owing to or in favor of such obligor or its successors from the Borrower, and all such obligations of the Borrower shall be and remain enforceable against and only against the Borrower and shall not be enforceable against the Bank. The foregoing obligation of the Borrower to indemnify the Bank shall not extend to any suit, proceeding or action arising out of the Bank’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.
