General Provisions
1. Parties Bound. Secured Party's rights under this agreement shall inure to
the benefit of its successors and assigns. Assignment of any part of the
obligation and delivery by Secured Party of any part of the collateral will
fully discharge Secured Party from responsibility for that part of the
collateral. If Debtor is more than one, all their representations,
warranties, and agreements are joint and several. Debtor's obligations
under this agreement shall bind Debtor's personal representatives,
successors, and assigns.
2. Waiver. Neither delay in exercise nor partial exercise of any Secured
Party's remedies or rights shall waive further exercise of those remedies
or rights. Secured Party's failure to exercise remedies or rights does not
waive subsequent exercise of those remedies or rights. Secured Party's
waiver of any default does not waive further default. Secured Party's
waiver of any right in this agreement or of any default is binding only if
it is in writing. Secured Party may remedy any default without waiving it.
3. Reimbursement. If Debtor fails to perform any of Debtor's obligations,
Secured Party may perform those obligations and be reimbursed by Debtor on
demand at the place where the note is payable for any sums so paid,
including attorney's fees and other legal expenses, plus interest on those
sums from the dates of payment at the rate stated in the note for matured,
unpaid amounts. The sum to be reimbursed shall be secured by this security
agreement.
4. Interest Rate. Interest included in the obligation shall not exceed the
maximum amount of nonusers interest that may be contracted for, taken,
reserved, charged, or received under law; any interest in excess of that
maximum amount shall be credited to the principal of the obligation or, if
that has been paid, refunded. On any acceleration or required or permitted
prepayment of the obligation, any such excess shall be canceled
automatically as of the acceleration or prepayment or, if already paid,
credited on the principal amount of the obligation or, if the principal
amount has been paid or refunded. This provision overrides other provisions
in this and all other instruments concerning the obligation.
5. Modifications. No provisions of this agreement shall be modified or limited
except by written agreement.
6. Severability. The unenforceability of any provision of this agreement will
not effect the enforceability or validity of any other provision.
7. After-Acquired Consumer Goods. This security interest shall attach to
after-acquired consumer goods only to the extent permitted by law.
8. Applicable Law. This agreement will be construed according to Texas laws.
9. Place of Performance. This agreement is to be performed in the county of
Secured Party's mailing address.
10. Financing Statement. A carbon, photographic, or other reproduction of this
agreement or any financing statement covering the collateral is sufficient
as a financing statement.
11. Presumption of Truth and Validity. If the collateral is sold after default,
recitals in the xxxx of sale or transfer will be prima facie evidence of
their truth, and all prerequisites to the sale specified by this agreement
and by the Texas Uniform Commercial Code will be presumed satisfied.
12. Singular and Plural. When the context requires, singular nouns and pronouns
include the plural.
13. Priority of Security Interest. Neither extensions of any of the obligation
nor releases of any of the collateral will affect the priority of validity
of this security interest with reference to any third person.
14. Cumulative Remedies. Foreclosure of this security interest by suit does not
limit secured Party's remedies, including the right to sell the collateral
under the terms of this agreement. All remedies of Secured Party may be
exercised at the same or different times, and no remedy shall be a defense
to any other. Secured Party's rights and remedies include all those granted
by law or otherwise, in addition to those specified in this agreement.
15. Agency. Debtor's appointment of Secured Party as Debtor's agent is coupled
with an interest and will survive any disability of Debtor.
