(3) If the sale is to be a public sale, Bank shall also give notice
of the time and place by publishing a notice one time at least five
(5) calendar days before the date of the sale in a newspaper of
general circulation in the county in which the sale is to be held;
and
(4) Bank may credit bid and purchase at any public sale.
i. Borrower shall pay all Bank Expenses incurred in connection with
Bank's enforcement and exercise of any of its rights and remedies as
herein provided, whether or not suit is commenced by Bank;
j. Any deficiency which exists after disposition of the Collateral as
provided above will be paid immediately by Borrower. Any excess will be
returned, without interest and subject to the rights of third parties,
to Borrower by Bank, or, in Bank's discretion, to any party who Bank
believes, in good faith, is entitled to the excess; and
k. Without constituting a retention of Collateral in satisfaction of an
obligation within the meaning of 9505 of the Uniform Commercial Code or
an action under California Code of Civil Procedure 726, apply any and
all amounts maintained by Borrower as deposit accounts (as that term is
defined under 91 05 of the Uniform Commercial Code) or other accounts
that Borrower maintains with Bank against the Obligations.
8.2 Bank's rights and remedies under this Agreement and all other
agreements shall be cumulative. Bank shall have all other rights and
remedies not inconsistent herewith as provided by law or in equity. No
exercise by Bank of one right or remedy shall be deemed an election, and no
waiver by Bank of any default on Borrower's part shall be deemed a
continuing waiver. No delay by Bank shall constitute a waiver, election or
acquiescence by Bank.
9. TAXES AND EXPENSES REGARDING BORROWER'S PROPERTY.
If Borrower fails to pay promptly when due to another person or entity, monies
which Borrower is required to pay by reason of any provision in this Agreement,
Bank may, but need not, pay the same and charge Borrower's account therefor, and
Borrower shall promptly reimburse Bank. All such sums shall become additional
indebtedness owing to Bank, shall bear interest at the rate hereinabove
provided, and shall be secured by all Collateral. Any payments made by Bank
shall not constitute (i) an agreement by it to make similar payments in the
future; or (ii) a waiver by Bank of any default under this Agreement. Bank need
not inquire as to, or contest the validity of, any such expense, tax, security
interest, encumbrance or lien and the receipt of the usual official notice of
the payment thereof shall be conclusive evidence that the same was validly due
and owing. Such payments shall constitute Bank Expenses and additional advances
to Borrower.
10. WAIVERS.
10.1 Borrower agrees that checks and other instruments received by Bank
in payment or on account of Borrower's Obligations constitute only
conditional payment until such items are actually paid to Bank and Borrower
waives the right to direct the application of any and all payments at any
time or times hereafter received by Bank on account of Borrower's
Obligations and Borrower agrees that Bank shall have the continuing
exclusive right to apply and reapply such payments in any manner as Bank may
deem advisable, notwithstanding any entry by Bank upon its books.
10.2 Borrower waives demand, protest, notice of protest, notice of
default or dishonor, notice of payment and nonpayment, notice of any
default, nonpayment at maturity, release, compromise, settlement, extension
or renewal of any or all commercial paper, accounts, documents, instruments
chattel paper, and guarantees at any time held by Bank on which Borrower may
in any way be liable.
10.3 Bank shall not in any way or manner be liable or responsible for
(a) the safekeeping of the Inventory; (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 Inventory shall be borne by Borrower.
10.4 Borrower waives the right and the right to assert a confidential
relationship, if any, it may have with any accountant, accounting firm
and/or service bureau or consultant in connection with any information
requested by Bank pursuant to or in accordance with this Agreement, and
agrees that a Bank may contact directly any such accountants, accounting
firm and/or service bureau or consultant in order to obtain such
information.
l0.5 BORROWER AND BANK EACH WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY
ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY TRANSACTION
HEREUNDER, OR CONTEMPLATED HEREUNDER, OR ANY OTHER CLAIM (INCLUDING TORT OR
BREACH OF DUTY CLAIMS) OR DISPUTE HOWSOEVER ARISING BETWEEN BANK AND
BORROWER.

10.6 In the event that Bank elects to waive any rights or remedies
hereunder, or compliance with any of the terms hereof, or delays or fails to
pursue or enforce any terms, such waiver, delay or failure to pursue or
enforce shall only be effective with respect to that single act and shall
not be construed to affect any subsequent transactions or Bank's right to
later pursue such rights and remedies.

and Borrower, shall constitute one loan secured by Bank's security interests
in the Collateral and by all other security interests, liens, encumbrances
heretofore, now or from time to time hereafter granted by Borrower to Bank.
Notwithstanding the above, (i) to the extent that any portion of the
Obligations are a consumer loan, that portion shall not be secured by any
deed of trust or mortgage on or other security interest in the Borrower's
principal dwelling which is not a purchase money security interest as to that
portion, unless expressly provided to the contrary in another place, or (ii)
if the Borrower (or any of them) has (have) given or give(s) Bank a deed of
trust or mortgage covering real property, that deed of trust or mortgage
shall not secure the loan and any other Obligation of the Borrower (or any of
them), unless expressly provided to the contrary in another place.
12. NOTICES.

party on the other relating to this Agreement shall be in writing and sent by

authority of any such party, and Borrower shall hold Bank harmless from any
damage, claims or liability by reason of Bank's honor of, or failure to
honor, any such instructions.

arrangements, at Borrower's expense, for their return.

The validity of this Agreement, its construction, interpretation and
enforcement, and the rights of the parties hereunder and concerning the

connection with this Agreement shall be tried and litigated only in the state
