Agreement or by applicable law, (a) Borrower agrees that Lender need not tell
Borrower about any action or inaction Lender takes in connection with this
Agreement; (b) Borrower assumes the responsibility for being and keeping
informed about the Collateral; and (c) Borrower waives any defenses that may
arise because of any action or inaction of Lender, including without limitation

(b) Grantor has the full right, power and authority to enter into this Agreement
and to pledge the Collateral to Lender; (c) Grantor has established adequate

pledged by Borrower, Grantor hereby forever waives and relinquishes in favor of
Lender and Borrower, and their respective successors, any claim or right to

successor provision of the Federal bankruptcy laws.
OBLIGATIONS OF GRANTOR. Grantor warrants and covenants to Lender as follows:
Perfection of Security Interest. Grantor agrees to execute such financing

perfect and continue Lender's security interest in the Collateral. Upon
request of Lender, Grantor will deliver to Lender any and all of the
documents evidencing or constituting the Collateral, and Grantor will note
Lender's interest upon any and all chattel paper if not delivered to Lender
for possession by Lender. Grantor hereby appoints Lender as its irrevocable
attorney-in-fact for the purpose of executing any documents necessary to
perfect or to continue the security interest granted in this Agreement.
Lender may at any time, and without further authorization from Grantor,
file a carbon, photographic or other reproduction of any financing
statement or of this Agreement for use as a financing statement. Grantor
will reimburse Lender for all expenses for the perfection and the
continuation of the perfection of Lender's security interest in the
Collateral. Grantor promptly will notify Lender before any change in
Grantor's name including any change to the assumed business names of
Grantor.

Loan No 9001 (Continued)
================================================================================
No Violation. The execution and delivery of this Agreement will not violate
any law or agreement governing Grantor or to which Grantor is a party, and
its articles or agreements relating to entity incorporation, organization
or existence do not prohibit any term or condition of this Agreement.
Enforceability of Collateral. To the extent the Collateral consists of
accounts, chattel paper, or general intangibles, the Collateral is
enforceable in accordance with its terms, is genuine, and complies with
applicable laws concerning form, content and manner of preparation and
execution, and all persons appearing to be obligated on the Collateral have
authority and capacity to contract and are in fact obligated as they appear
to be on the Collateral.
Removal of Collateral. Grantor shall keep the Collateral (or to the extent
the Collateral consists of intangible property such as accounts, the
records concerning the Collateral) at Grantor's address shown above, or at
such other locations as are acceptable to Lender. Some or all of the
Collateral may be located at the real property described above. Except in
the ordinary course of its business, including the sales of inventory,
Grantor shall not remove the Collateral from its existing locations without
the prior written consent of Lender. To the extent that the Collateral
consists of vehicles, or other titled property, Grantor shall not take or
permit any action which would require application for certificates of title
for the vehicles outside the State of Washington, without the prior written
consent of Lender.
Transactions Involving Collateral. Except for inventory sold or accounts
collected or other actions taken in the ordinary course of Grantor's
business, Grantor shall not sell, offer to sell, or otherwise transfer or
dispose of the Collateral. Grantor shall not pledge, mortgage, encumber or
otherwise permit the Collateral to be subject to any lien, security
interest, encumbrance, or charge, other than the security interest provided
for in this Agreement, without the prior written consent of Lender. This
includes security interests even if junior in right to the security
interests granted under this Agreement. Unless waived by Lender, all
proceeds from any disposition of the Collateral (for whatever reason) shall
be held in trust for Lender and shall not be commingled with any other
funds; provided however, this requirement shall not constitute consent by
Lender to any sale or other disposition. Upon receipt, Grantor shall
immediately deliver any such proceeds to Lender.
Title. Grantor represents and warrants to Lender that it holds good and
marketable title to the Collateral, free and clear of all liens and
encumbrances except for the lien of this Agreement. No financing statement
governing any of the Collateral is on file in any public office other than
those which reflect the security interest created by this Agreement or to
which Lender has specifically consented. Grantor shall defend Lender's
rights in the Collateral against the claims and demands of all other
persons.
Maintenance and Inspection of Collateral. Grantor shall maintain all
tangible Collateral in good condition and repair. Grantor will not commit
or permit damage to or destruction of the Collateral or any part of the
Collateral. Lender and its designated representatives and agents shall have
the right at all reasonable times to examine, inspect, and audit the
Collateral wherever located. Grantor shall immediately notify Lender of all
cases involving the return, rejection, repossession, loss or damage of or
to any Collateral; of any request for credit or adjustment or of any other
dispute arising with respect to the Collateral; and generally of all
happenings and events affecting the Collateral or the value or the amount
of the Collateral.
Taxes, Assessments and Liens. Grantor will pay when due all taxes,
assessments and liens upon the Collateral, its use or operation, upon the
Agreement, upon any promissory note or notes evidencing the Indebtedness,
or upon any of the other Related Documents. Grantor may withhold any such
payment or may elect to contest any lien if Grantor is in good faith
conducting an appropriate proceeding to contest the obligation to pay and
so long as Lender's interest in the Collateral is not jeopardized in
Lender's sole opinion. If the Collateral is subjected to a lien which is
not discharged within fifteen (15) days, Grantor shall deposit with Lender
cash, a sufficient corporate surety bond or other security satisfactory to
Lender in an amount adequate to provide for the discharge of the lien plus
any interest, costs, attorneys'
-4-

Loan No 9001 (Continued)
================================================================================
fees or other charges that could accrue as a result of foreclosure or sale
of the Collateral. In any contest Grantor shall defend itself and Lender
and shall satisfy any final adverse judgment before enforcement against the
Collateral. Grantor shall name Lender as an additional obligee under any
surety bond furnished in the contest proceedings.
Compliance With Governmental Requirements. Grantor shall comply promptly in
all material respects with all laws, ordinances, rules and regulations of
all governmental authorities, now or hereafter in effect, applicable to the
ownership, production, disposition, or use of the Collateral. Grantor may
contest in good faith any such law, ordinance or regulation and withhold
compliance during any proceeding, including appropriate appeals, so long as
Lender's interest in the Collateral, in Lender's opinion, is not
jeopardized.
Hazardous Substances. Grantor represents and warrants that, except as
disclosed to Lender, the Collateral never has been, and never will be so
long as this Agreement remains a lien on the Collateral, used for the
generation, manufacture, storage, transportation, treatment, disposal,
release or threatened release of any hazardous waste or substance, as those
terms are defined in the Comprehensive Environmental Response,
Compensation, and Liability Act of 1980, as amended, 42 U.S.C. Section
9601, et seq. ("CERCLA"), the Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act
of 1986, Publ. L. No. 99-499 ("XXXX"), the Hazardous Materials
Transportation Act, 49 U.S.C. Section 1801, et seq., the Resource
Conservation and Recovery Act, 42 U.S.C. Section 6901, et seq., or other
applicable state or Federal laws, rules, or regulations adopted pursuant to
any of the foregoing. The terms "hazardous waste" and "hazardous substance"
shall also include, without limitation, petroleum and petroleum by-products
or any fraction thereof and asbestos. The representations and warranties
contained herein are based on Grantor's due diligence in investigating the
Collateral for hazardous wastes and substances. Grantor hereby (a) releases
and waives any future claims against Lender for indemnity or contribution
in the event Grantor becomes liable for cleanup or other costs under any
such laws, and (b) agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Lender against,
any and all claims and losses resulting from a breach of this provision of
this Agreement. This obligation to indemnify shall survive the payment of
the Indebtedness and the satisfaction of this Agreement. (Any such
disclosure appears on the Environmental Addendum attached hereto and
incorporated herein by this reference and if there is no such addendum or
the addendum is marked "not applicable," then there has been no such
disclosure.)
Maintenance of Casualty Insurance. Grantor shall procure and maintain all
risks insurance, including without limitation fire, theft and liability
coverage together with such other insurance as Lender may require with
respect to the Collateral, in form, amounts, coverages and basis reasonably
acceptable to Lender and issued by a company or companies reasonably
acceptable to Lender. Grantor, upon request of Lender, will deliver to
Lender from time to time the policies or certificates of insurance in form
satisfactory to Lender, including stipulations that coverages will not be
cancelled or diminished without at least ten (10) days' prior written
notice to Lender and not including any disclaimer of the insurer's
liability for failure to give such a notice. Each insurance policy also
shall include an endorsement providing that coverage in favor of Lender
will not be impaired in any way by any act, omission or default of Grantor
or any other person. In connection with all policies covering assets in
which Lender holds or is offered a security interest, Grantor will provide
with such loss payable or other endorsements as Lender may require. If
Grantor at any time fails to obtain or maintain any insurance as required
under this Agreement, Lender may (but shall not be obligated to) obtain
such insurance as Lender deems appropriate, including if it so chooses
"single interest insurance," which will cover only Lender's interest in the
Collateral.
Application of Insurance Proceeds. Grantor shall promptly notify Lender of
any material loss or damage to the Collateral. Lender may make proof of
loss if Grantor fails to do so within fifteen (15) days of the casualty.
All proceeds of any insurance on the Collateral, including accrued proceeds
thereon, shall be held by Lender as part of the Collateral. If Lender
consents to repair or replacement of the damaged or destroyed Collateral,
Lender shall, upon satisfactory proof of expenditure, pay or reimburse
Grantor from the proceeds for the reasonable cost of repair or restoration.
If Lender does not consent to repair or replacement of the Collateral,
Lender shall retain a sufficient
-5-
03-18-1998 COMMERCIAL SECURITY AGREEMENT Page 6
Loan No 9001 (Continued)
================================================================================
amount of the proceeds to pay all of the Indebtedness, and shall pay the
balance to Grantor. Any proceeds which have not been disbursed within six
(6) amount of the proceeds to pay all of the Indebtedness, and shall pay
the balance to Grantor. Any proceeds which have not been disbursed within
six (6) months after their receipt and which Grantor has not committed to
the repair or restoration of the Collateral shall be used to prepay the
Indebtedness.
Insurance Reserves. Lender may require Grantor to maintain with Lender
reserves for payment of insurance premiums, which reserves shall be created
by monthly payments from Grantor of a sum estimated by Lender to be
sufficient to produce, at least fifteen (15) days before the premium due
date, amounts at least equal to the insurance premiums to be paid. If
fifteen (15) days before payment is due, the reserve funds are
insufficient, Grantor shall upon demand pay any deficiency to Lender. The
reserve funds shall be held by Lender as a general deposit and shall
constitute a non-interest-bearing account which Lender may satisfy by
payment of the insurance premiums required to be paid by Grantor as they
become due. Lender does not hold the reserve funds in trust for Grantor,
and Lender is not the agent of Grantor for payment of the insurance
premiums required to be paid by Grantor. The responsibility for the payment
of premiums shall remain Grantor's sole responsibility.
Insurance Reports. Grantor, upon request of Lender, shall furnish to Lender
reports on each existing policy of insurance showing such information as
Lender may reasonably request including the following: (a) the name of the
insurer; (b) the risks insured; (c) the amount of the policy; (d) the
property insured; (e) the then current value on the basis of which
insurance has been obtained and the manner of determining that value; and
(f) the expiration date of the policy. In addition, Grantor shall upon
request by Lender (however not more often than annually) have an
independent appraiser satisfactory to Lender determine, as applicable, the
cash value or replacement cost of the Collateral.
GRANTOR'S RIGHT TO POSSESSION. Until default, Grantor may have possession of the
tangible personal property and beneficial use of all the Collateral and may use
it in any lawful manner not inconsistent with this Agreement or the Related
Documents, provided that Grantor's right to possession and beneficial use shall
not apply to any Collateral where possession of the Collateral by Lender is
required by law to perfect Lender's security interest in such Collateral. If
Lender at any time has possession of any Collateral, whether before or after an
Event of Default, Lender shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in
the custody and preservation of the Collateral if Lender takes such action for
that purpose as Grantor shall request or as Lender, in Lender's sole discretion,
shall deem appropriate under the circumstances, but failure to honor any request
by Grantor shall not of itself be deemed to be a failure to exercise reasonable
care. Lender shall not be required to take any steps necessary to preserve any
rights in the Collateral against prior parties, nor to protect, preserve or
maintain any security interest given to secure the Indebtedness.
EXPENDITURES BY LENDER. If not discharged or paid when due, Lender may (but
shall not be obligated to) discharge or pay any amounts required, to be
discharged or paid by Grantor under this Agreement, including without limitation
all taxes, liens, security interests, encumbrances, and other claims, at any
time levied or placed on the Collateral. Lender also may (but shall not be
obligated to) pay all costs for insuring, maintaining and preserving the
Collateral. All such expenditures incurred or paid by Lender for such purposes
will then bear interest at the rate charged under the Note from the date
incurred or paid by Lender to the date of repayment by Grantor. All such
expenses shall become a part of the Indebtedness and, at Lender's option, will
(a) be payable on demand, (b) be added to the balance of the Note and
apportioned among and be payable with any installment payments to becomes due
during either (i) the term of any applicable insurance policy or (ii) the
remaining term of the Note, or (c) be treated as a balloon payment which will be
due and payable at the Note's maturity. This Agreement also will secure payment
of these amounts. Such right shall be in addition to all other rights and
remedies to which Lender may be entitled upon the occurrence of an Event of
Default.
EVENTS OF DEFAULT. Each of the following shall constitute an Event of Default
under this Agreement:
Default on Indebtedness. Failure of Borrower to make any payment when due
on the Indebtedness.
-6-
03-18-1998 COMMERCIAL SECURITY AGREEMENT Page 7
Loan No 9001 (Continued)
================================================================================
Other Defaults. Failure of Grantor or Borrower to comply with or to perform
any other terms, obligation, covenant or condition contained in this
Agreement or in any of the Related Documents or failure of Borrower to
comply with or to perform any term, obligation, covenant or condition
contained in any other agreement between Lender and Borrower.
Default in Favor of Third Parties. Should Borrower or any Grantor default
under any loan, extension of credit, security agreement, purchase or sales
agreement, or any other agreement, in favor of any other creditor or person
that may materially affect any of Borrower's property or Borrower's or any
Grantor's ability to repay the Loans or perform their respective
obligations under this Agreement or any of the Related Documents.
False Statements. Any warranty, representation or statement made or
furnished to Lender by or on behalf of Grantor or Borrower under this
Agreement, the Note or the Related Documents is false or misleading in any
material respect, either now or at the time made or furnished.
Defective Collateralization. This Agreement or any of the Related Documents
ceases to be in full force and effect (including failure of any collateral
documents to create a valid and perfected security interest or lien) at any
time and for any reason.
Insolvency. The dissolution or termination of Grantor or Borrower's
existence as a going business, the insolvency of Grantor or Borrower, the
appointment of a receiver for any part of Grantor or Borrower's property,
any assignment for the benefit of creditors, any type of creditor workout,
or the commencement of any proceeding under any bankruptcy or insolvency
laws by or against Grantor or Borrower.
Creditor or Forfeiture Proceedings. Commencement of foreclosure or
forfeiture proceedings, whether by judicial proceeding, self-help,
repossession or any other method, by any creditor of Grantor or Borrower or
by any governmental agency against the Collateral or any other collateral
securing the Indebtedness. This includes a garnishment of any of Grantor or
Borrower's deposit accounts with Lender. However, this Event of Default
shall not apply if there is a good faith dispute by Grantor or Borrower as
to the validity or reasonableness of the claim which is the basis of the
creditor or forfeiture proceeding and if Grantor or Borrower gives Lender
written notice of the creditor or forfeiture proceeding and deposits with
Lender monies or a surety bond for the creditors or forfeiture proceeding,
in an amount determined by Lender, in its sole discretion, as being an
adequate reserve or bond for the dispute.
Events Affecting Guarantor. Any of the preceding events occurs with respect
to any Guarantor of any of the Indebtedness or such Guarantor dies or
becomes incompetent. Lender, at its option, may, but shall not be required
to, permit the Guarantor's estate to assume unconditionally the obligations
arising under the guaranty in a manner satisfactory to Lender, and, in
doing so, cure the Event of Default.
Adverse Change. A material adverse change occurs in Borrower's financial
condition, or Lender believes the prospect of payment or performance of the
Indebtedness is impaired.
Right to Cure. If any default, other than a Default on Indebtedness, is
curable and if Grantor or Borrower has not been given a prior notice of a
breach of the same provision of this Agreement, it may be cured (and no
Event of Default will have occurred) if Grantor or Borrower, after Lender
sends written notice demanding cure of such default, (a) cures the default
within fifteen (15) days; or (b) if the cure requires more than fifteen
(15) days, immediately initiates steps which Lender deems in Lender's sole
discretion to be sufficient to cure the default and thereafter continues
and completes all reasonable and necessary steps sufficient to produce
compliance as soon as reasonably practical.

================================================================================
RIGHTS AND REMEDIES ON DEFAULT. If an Event of Default occurs under this
Agreement, at any time thereafter, Lender shall have all the rights of a secured
party under the Washington Uniform Commercial Code. In addition and without
limitation, Lender may exercise any one or more of the following rights and
remedies:
Accelerate Indebtedness. Lender may declare the entire Indebtedness,
including any prepayment penalty which Borrower would be required to pay,
immediately due and payable, without notice.
Assemble Collateral. Lender may require Grantor to deliver to Lender all or
any portion of the Collateral and any and all certificates of title and
other documents relating to the Collateral. Lender may require Grantor to
assemble the Collateral and make it available to Lender at a place to be
designated by Lender. Lender also shall have full power to enter upon the
property of Grantor to take possession of and remove the Collateral. If the
Collateral contains other goods not covered by this Agreement at the time
of repossession, Grantor agrees Lender may take such other goods, provided
that Lender makes reasonable efforts to return them to Grantor after
repossession.
Sell the Collateral. Lender shall have full power to sell, lease, transfer,
or otherwise deal with the Collateral or proceeds thereof in its own name
or that of Grantor. Lender may sell the Collateral at public auction or
private sale. Unless the Collateral threatens to decline speedily in value
or is of a type customarily sold on a recognized market, Lender will give
Grantor reasonable notice of the time after which any private sale or any
other intended disposition of the Collateral is to be made. The
requirements of reasonable notice shall be met if such notice is given at
least ten (10) days before the time of the sale or disposition. All
expenses relating to the disposition of the Collateral, including without
limitation the expenses of retaking, holding, insuring, preparing for sale
and selling the Collateral, shall become a part of the Indebtedness secured
by this Agreement and shall be payable on demand, with interest at the Note
rate from date of expenditure until repaid.
Appoint Receiver. To the extent permitted by applicable law, Lender shall
have the following rights and remedies regarding the appointment of a
receiver: (a) Lender may have a receiver appointed as a matter of right;
(b) the receiver may be an employee of Lender and may serve without bond;
and (c) all fees of the receiver and his or her attorney shall become part
of the Indebtedness secured by this Agreement and shall be payable on
demand, with interest at the Note rate from date of expenditure until
repaid.
Collect Revenues, Apply Accounts. Lender, either itself or through a
receiver, may collect the payments, rents, income, and revenues from the
Collateral. Lender may at any time in its discretion transfer any
Collateral into its own name or that of its nominee and receive the
payments, rents, income, and revenues therefrom and hold the same as
security for the Indebtedness or apply it to payment of the Indebtedness in
such order of preference as Lender may determine. Insofar as the Collateral
consists of accounts, general intangibles, insurance policies, instruments,
chattel paper, choses in action, or similar property, Lender may demand,
collect, receipt for, settle, compromise, adjust xxx for, foreclose, or
realize on the Collateral as Lender may determine, whether or not
Indebtedness or Collateral is then due. For these purposes, Lender may, on
behalf of and in the name of Grantor, receive, open and dispose of mail
addressed to Grantor, change any address to which mail and payments are to
be sent; and endorse notes, checks, draft, money orders, documents of
title, instruments and items pertaining to payment, shipment, or storage of
any Collateral. To facilitate collection, Lender may notify account debtors
and obligors on any Collateral to make payments directly to Lender.

Lender may obtain a judgment against Borrower for any deficiency remaining

Other Rights and Remedies. Lender shall have all the rights and remedies of
a secured creditor under the provisions of the Uniform Commercial Code, as
may be amended from time to time. In addition, Lender shall have and may
exercise any or all other rights and remedies it may have available at law,
in equity, or otherwise.
Cumulative Remedies. All of Lender's rights and remedies, whether evidenced
by this Agreement or the Related Documents or by any other writing, shall
be cumulative and may be exercised singularly or concurrently. Election by
Lender to pursue any remedy shall not exclude pursuit of any other remedy,
and an election to make expenditures or to take action to perform an
obligation of Grantor or Borrower under this Agreement, after Grantor or
Borrower's failure to perform, shall not affect Lender's right to declare a
default and to exercise its remedies.
MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS. The following miscellaneous provisions are a part of
this Agreement:
Amendments. This Agreement, together with any Related Documents,
constitutes the entire and final understanding and agreements of the
parties as to the matters set forth in this Agreement. No alteration of or
amendment to this Agreement shall be effective unless given in writing and
signed by the party or parties sought to be charged or bound by the
alteration or amendment.
Applicable Law. This Agreement has been delivered to Lender and accepted by
Lender in the State of Washington. If there is a lawsuit, Grantor and
Borrower agree upon Lender's request to submit to the jurisdiction of the
courts of King or Xxxxxx County, the State of Washington. Lender, Grantor
and Borrower hereby waive the right to any jury trial in any action,
proceeding, or counterclaim brought by either Lender, Grantor or Borrower
against the other. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the State of Washington.
Attorneys' Fees; Expenses. Grantor and Borrower agree to pay upon demand
all of Lender's costs and expenses, including attorneys' fees and Lender's
legal expenses, incurred in connection with the enforcement of this
Agreement. Lender may pay someone else to help enforce this Agreement, and
Grantor and Borrower shall pay the costs and expenses of such enforcement.
Costs and expenses include Lender's attorneys' fees and legal expenses
whether or not there is a lawsuit, including attorneys' fees and legal
expenses for bankruptcy proceedings (and including efforts to modify or
vacate any automatic stay or injunction), appeals, and any anticipated
post-judgment collection services. Grantor and Borrower also shall pay all
court costs and such additional fees as may be directed by the court.
Caption Headings. Caption headings in this Agreement are for convenience
purposes only and are not to be used to interpret or define the provisions
of this Agreement.
Multiple Parties; Corporate Authority. All obligations of Grantor and
Borrower under this Agreement shall be joint and several, and all
references to Borrower shall mean each and every Borrower, and all
references to Grantor shall mean each and every Grantor. This means that
each of the persons signing below is responsible for all obligations in
this Agreement.
Notices. All notices required to be given under this Agreement shall be
given in writing, may be sent by telefacsimile (unless otherwise required
by law), and shall be effective when actually delivered or when deposited
with a nationally recognized overnight courier or deposited in the United
States mail, first class, postage prepaid, addressed to the party to whom
the notice is to be given at the address shown above. Any party may change
its address for notices under this Agreement by giving formal written
notice to the other parties, specifying that the purpose of the notice is
to change the party's address. To the extent permitted by applicable law,
if there is more than one Grantor or Borrower, notice to any Grantor or
Borrower will constitute notice to all Grantor and Borrowers. For notice
purposes, Grantor and Borrower will keep Lender informed at all times of
Grantor and Borrower's current address(es).

================================================================================
Power of Attorney. Grantor hereby appoints Lender as its true and lawful
attorney-in-fact, irrevocably, with full power of substitution to do the
following: (a) to demand, collect, receive, receipt for, xxx and recover
all sums of money or other property which may now or hereafter become due,
owing or payable from the Collateral; (b) to execute, sign and endorse any
and all claims, instruments, receipts, checks, draft or warrants issued in
payment for the Collateral; (c) to settle or compromise any and all claims
arising under the Collateral, and, in the place and stead of Grantor, to
execute and deliver its release and settlement for the claim; and (d) to
file any claim or claims or to take any action or institute or take part in
any proceedings, either in its own name or in the name of Grantor, or
otherwise, which in the discretion of Lender may seem to be necessary or
advisable. This power is given as security for the Indebtedness, and the
authority hereby conferred is and shall be irrevocable and shall remain in
full force and effect until renounced by Lender.
Preference Payments. Any monies Lender pays because of an asserted
preference claim in Borrower's bankruptcy will become a part of the
Indebtedness and, at Lender's option, shall be payable by Borrower as
provided above in the "EXPENDITURES BY LENDER" paragraph.
Severability. If a court of competent jurisdiction finds any provision of
this Agreement to be invalid or unenforceable as to any person or
circumstances, such finding shall not render that provision invalid or
unenforceable as to any other persons or circumstances. If feasible, any
such offending provision shall be deemed to be modified to be within the
limits of enforceability or validity; however, if the offending provision
cannot be so modified, it shall be stricken and all other provisions of
this Agreement in all other respects shall remain valid and enforceable.
Successor Interests. Subject to the limitations set forth above on transfer
of the Collateral, this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the
benefit of the parties, their successors and assigns.
Waiver. Lender shall not be deemed to have waived any rights under this
Agreement unless such waiver is given in writing and signed by Lender. No
delay or omission on the part of Lender in exercising any right shall
operate as a waiver of such right or any other right. A waiver by Lender of
a provision of this Agreement shall not prejudice or constitute a waiver of
Lender's right otherwise to demand strict compliance with that provision or
any other provision of this Agreement. No prior waiver by Lender, nor any
course of dealing between Lender and Grantor, shall constitute a waiver of
any of Lender's rights or of any of Grantor's obligations as to any future
transactions. Whenever the consent of Lender is required under this
Agreement, the granting of such consent by Lender in any instance shall not
constitute continuing consent to subsequent instances where such consent is
required and in all cases such consent may be granted or withheld in the
sole discretion of Lender.
Waiver of Co-obligor's Rights. If more than one person is obligated for the
Indebtedness, Borrower irrevocably waives, disclaims and relinquishes all
claims against such other person which Borrower has or would otherwise have
by virtue of payment of the Indebtedness or any part thereof, specifically
including but not limited to all rights of indemnity, contribution or
exoneration.
