Lender, at its option, may declare the Term Loan to be immediately due and payable, whereupon the same shall become immediately due and payable without presentment, demand, protest, notice of nonpayment or any other notice required by law relative thereto, all of which are hereby expressly waived by Borrower and Guarantors.
12.2. Remedies of a Secured Party. As it relates to the personal property collateral defined herein, Lender shall thereupon have the rights and remedies of a secured party under the
UCC in effect on the date thereof (regardless of whether the same has been enacted in the jurisdiction where the rights or remedies are asserted), including, without limitation, the right to take possession of any of the Collateral, subject to the UCC, or the proceeds thereof, to sell or otherwise dispose of the same, and to apply the proceeds therefrom to the Term Loan in such order and manner as Lender, in its sole discretion, may elect. Lender shall give Borrower written notice of the time and place of any public sale of the Collateral or the time after which any other intended disposition thereof is to be made. The requirement of sending reasonable notice shall be met if such notice is given to Borrower pursuant to Section 13.8 at least five (5) days before such disposition. Expenses of retaking, holding, insuring, preserving, protecting, preparing for sale or selling or the like with respect to the Collateral shall include, in any event, reasonable attorneys fees and other legally recoverable collection expenses, all of which shall constitute obligations of Borrower.
12.3. Repossession of the Collateral. As it relates to the personal property collateral defined herein, Lender may take the Collateral or any portion thereof into its possession, by such means (without breach of the peace) and through agents or otherwise as it may elect (and, in connection therewith, demand that Borrower assemble the Collateral at a place or places and in such manner as Lender shall prescribe), and sell, lease or otherwise dispose of the Collateral or any portion thereof in its then condition or following any commercially reasonable preparation or processing, which disposition may be by public or private proceedings, by one or more contracts, as a unit or in parcels, at any time and place and on any terms, so long as the same are commercially reasonable.
12.4. Other and Additional Remedies. In addition to the rights and remedies of a secured
party under the laws of the State of Georgia and the rights and remedies granted in this Agreement, Lender shall have all of the rights and remedies set forth in the Deed to Secure Debt and Security Agreement, the Security Agreement, and in all of the other Loan Documents, which rights and remedies may be exercised successively or concurrently.
ARTICLE XIII
MISCELLANEOUS
13.1. Waiver. No remedy conferred upon, or reserved to, the Lender in this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents is intended to be exclusive of any other remedy or remedies, and each and every remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing in law or in equity. Exercise or omission to exercise any right of the Lender shall not affect any subsequent right of Lender to exercise the same. No course of dealing between Borrower and the Guarantors and Lender or any delay on the Lender’s part in exercising any rights shall operate as a waiver of any of the Lender’s rights. No waiver of any Default under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents shall extend to or shall affect any subsequent or other then existing Default or shall impair any rights, remedies or powers of Lender. Except for any defense which would constitute a compulsory counterclaim, Borrower and the Guarantors hereby agree that any and all causes of action and claims which they may ever have against the Lender shall not be raised by Borrower and the Guarantors as a defense or counterclaim in any suit or proceeding brought by Lender against them for collection of the Loan Obligations or enforcement of this Agreement, but shall instead be brought, if at all, by a separate suit or proceeding.
13.2. Costs and Expenses. Borrower will bear all taxes, fees and reasonable expenses
(including reasonable fees and expenses of counsel for Lender) in connection with the preparation of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and in connection with any modifications thereto and the recording of any of the Loan Documents. If, at any time, a Default occurs or Lender becomes a party to any suit or proceeding in order to protect its interests or priority in any collateral for any of the Loan Obligations or its rights under this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents, or if Lender is made a party to any suit or proceeding by virtue of the Term Loan, this Agreement or any collateral for any Loan Obligations and as a result of any of the foregoing, the Lender employs counsel to advise or provide other representation with respect to this Agreement, or to collect the balance of the Loan Obligations, or to take any action in or with respect to any suit or proceeding relating to this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents, any collateral for any of the Loan Obligations, or to protect, collect, or liquidate any of the security for the Loan Obligations, or attempt to enforce any security interest or lien granted to the Lender by any of the Loan Documents, then in any such events, all of the reasonable attorney’s fees arising from such services, including fees on appeal and in any bankruptcy proceedings, and any reasonable expenses, costs and charges relating thereto shall constitute additional obligations of Borrower to the Lender payable on demand of the Lender. Without limiting the foregoing, Borrower shall pay or reimburse the Lender for all recording and filing fees, revenue or documentary stamps or taxes, intangibles taxes, and other expenses and charges payable in connection with this Agreement, any of the Loan Documents, the Loan Obligations, or the filing of any financing statements or other instruments required to effectuate the purposes of this Agreement.
13.3. Performance of Lender. At its option, upon Borrower’s failure to do so, the Lender may make any payment or do any act on the Borrower’s behalf that the Borrower or others are
required to do to remain in compliance with this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, and Borrower agrees to reimburse the Lender, on demand, for any payment made or expense reasonably incurred by Lender pursuant to the foregoing authorization, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees.
13.4. Headings. The headings of the Sections of this Agreement are for convenience of reference only, are not to be considered a part hereof, and shall not limit or otherwise affect any of the terms hereof.
13.5. Survival of Covenants. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made herein and in certificates or reports delivered pursuant hereto shall be deemed to have been material and relied on by Lender, notwithstanding any investigation made by or on behalf of Lender, and shall survive the execution and delivery to Lender of the Term Note and this Agreement.
13.6. No Assignment by Borrower or Guarantors. No assignment hereof shall be made by Borrower or Guarantors without the prior written consent of Lender.
13.7. Severability. If any provision of any of the Loan Documents or the application thereof to any party thereto shall be invalid or unenforceable to any extent, the remainder of such Loan Documents and the application of such provisions to any other party thereto shall not be affected thereby and shall be enforced to the greatest extent permitted by law.
13.8. Notices. Any and all notices, elections or demands permitted or required to be given under this Agreement shall be in writing, signed by or on behalf of the party giving such notice, election or demand, and shall be deemed to have been properly given and shall be effective upon being personally delivered, or upon being deposited in the United States mail,
postage prepaid, certified with return receipt required, and shall be deemed to have been received on the earlier of the date shown on the receipt or three (3) business days after the postmarked date thereof, or upon being deposited with an overnight delivery service requiring proof of delivery, to the other party at the address of such other party set forth below or such other address within the continental United States as such other party may designate by notice specifically designated as a notice of change of address and given in accordance herewith; provided, however, that the time period in which a response to any such notice, election, demand or request must be given shall commence on the date of receipt thereof; and provided further that no notice of change of address shall be effective until the date of receipt thereof. Personal delivery to a partner or any officer, partnership, agent or employee of such party at said address shall constitute receipt. Rejection or other refusal to accept or inability to deliver because of changed address of which no notice has been given shall also constitute receipt. Any such notice, election, demand, request or response shall be addressed as follows:
If given to Lender, shall be addressed as follows:

with a copy to:

13.9. Benefits. All of the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. No Person other than Borrower or Lender shall be entitled to rely upon this Agreement or be entitled to the benefits of this Agreement.
13.10. Participation. Borrower acknowledges that Lender may, at its option, sell participation interests in the Term Loan to other participating banks. Borrower agrees with each present and future participant in the Term Loan that if an Event of Default should occur, each present and future participant shall have all of the rights and remedies of Lender with respect to any deposit due from any participant agreement with Lender, and the execution by the Borrower of this Agreement, regardless of the order of execution, shall evidence an agreement between the Borrower and said participant in accordance with the terms of this Section. The Lender will maintain a minimum of five (5%) percent of the total loan amount of the Term Loan. The remaining unguaranteed portion can only be sold through participation with other lenders and no part of the guaranteed or unguaranteed loan can be sold to the applicant or anyone having an interest in the applicant.
13.11. Supersedes Prior Agreements; Counterparts. This Agreement and the instruments referred to herein supersede and incorporate all representations, promises, and statements, oral or written, made by Lender in connection with the Term Loan. This Agreement may not be varied, altered, or amended except by a written instrument executed by an authorized officer of the Lender and the RD. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which, when
executed and delivered, shall be an original, but such counterparts shall together constitute one and the same instrument.
13.12. Time of the Essence. Time is of the essence in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
13.13. Interpretation. No provision of this Agreement shall be construed against or interpreted to the disadvantage of any party hereto by any court or other governmental or judicial authority by reason of such party having or being deemed to have structured or dictated such provision.
13.14. Lender Not a Joint Venturer. Neither this Agreement nor any agreements, instruments, documents or transactions contemplated hereby (including the Loan Documents) shall in any respect be interpreted, deemed or construed as making Lender a partner or joint venturer with Borrower or Guarantors or as creating any similar relationship or entity, and Borrower and Guarantors agree that they will not make any contrary assertion, contention, claim or counterclaim in any action, suit or other legal proceeding involving Lender.
13.15. Jurisdiction. This Agreement will be governed by, construed and enforced in accordance with federal law and the laws of the State of Georgia.
13.16. Acceptance. This Agreement, together with the other Loan Documents, shall not become effective unless and until delivered to Lender at its office located at 0000 Xxxxxxxxx Xxxx, Xxxxxx, XX 00000 and accepted in writing by Lender thereafter at such office as evidenced by its execution hereof (notice of which delivery and acceptance are hereby waived by Borrower).
13.17. Payment on Non-Business Days. Whenever any payment to be made hereunder or under the Term Note shall be stated to be due on a Saturday, Sunday or a public holiday, such
payment may be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of payment of interest hereunder or under the Term Note.
13.18. Waiver of Rights. Borrower and Guarantors hereby waive all rights which they have or may have regarding, without limitation, the right to notice and to a judicial hearing prior to seizure of any Collateral by Lender. In addition, Borrower and Guarantors waive any right which they have or may have under applicable UCC law or like Section to have Lender file UCC termination statements with respect to the Collateral, or any part thereof, and Borrower and Guarantors further agree that Lender shall not be required to file such UCC termination statements unless and until the Term Note has been paid in full; provided, however, that after such event, Lender will file UCC termination statements promptly upon request by Borrower or Guarantors.
13.19. Cure of Defaults by Lender. If, hereafter, Borrower or any Guarantors defaults in the performance of any duty or obligation to Lender hereunder, Lender may, at its option, but without obligation, cure such default and any costs, fees and expenses incurred by Lender in connection therewith including, without limitation, for the purchase of insurance, the payment of taxes and the removal or settlement of liens and claims, shall be deemed to be advances against the Term Note, whether or not this creates an over-advance thereunder, and shall be payable in accordance with its terms.
13.20. Attorney-in-Fact. Borrower and Guarantors hereby designate, appoint and empower Lender irrevocably as their attorney-in-fact, at Borrower’s and Guarantors’ cost and expense, to do in the name of Borrower and Guarantors any and all actions which Lender may deem necessary or advisable to carry out the terms hereof upon the failure, refusal or inability of Borrower or Guarantors to do so and Borrower and Guarantors hereby agree to indemnify and hold Lender
harmless from any costs, damages, expenses or liabilities arising against or incurred by Lender in connection therewith. Without limitation, Borrower and Guarantors specifically authorize all federal, state and municipal authorities to furnish reports of examinations, records and other information relating to the conditioned affairs of Borrower and Guarantors to Lender upon Lender’s request.
13.21. Prepayment Premium. In the event of prepayment, in whole or in part, a prepayment penalty rate shall be assessed as follows:
(a) If the prepayment occurs on or before the first anniversary date of this Agreement, the prepayment penalty will equal ten percent (10%) of the principal amount prepaid.
(b) If the prepayment occurs after the first anniversary date, but on or before the second anniversary date, the prepayment penalty will equal nine percent (9%) of the principal amount prepaid.
(c) If the prepayment occurs after the second anniversary date, but on or before the third anniversary date, the prepayment penalty will equal eight percent (8%) of the principal amount prepaid.
(d) If the prepayment occurs after the third anniversary date, but on or before the fourth anniversary date of this Note, the prepayment penalty will equal seven percent (7%) of the principal amount prepaid.
(e) If the prepayment occurs after the fourth anniversary date, but on or before the fifth anniversary date, the prepayment premium will equal six percent (6%) of the principal amount prepaid.
(f) If the prepayment occurs after the fifth anniversary date, but on or before the sixth anniversary date, the prepayment premium will equal five percent (5%) of the principal amount prepaid.
(g) If the prepayment occurs after the sixth anniversary date, but on or before the seventh anniversary date, the prepayment premium will equal four percent (4%) of the principal amount prepaid.
(h) If the prepayment occurs after the seventh anniversary date, but on or before the eighth anniversary date, the prepayment premium will equal three percent (3%) of the principal amount prepaid.
(i) If the prepayment occurs after the eighth anniversary date, but on or before the ninth anniversary date, the prepayment premium will equal two percent (2%) of the principal amount prepaid.
(j) If the prepayment occurs after the ninth anniversary date, but on or before the tenth anniversary date, the prepayment premium will equal one percent (1%) of the principal amount prepaid.
A prepayment premium shall not apply if the prepayment occurs after the tenth anniversary date.
13.22. Modifications/Amendments. Any amendments, adjustments, or waivers of the covenants and terms of this Agreement shall require the approval and concurrence of the Rural Development and the Lender.
13.23 Notice and Opportunity to Cure. Notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary contained in this Agreement or in any of the other Loan Documents, upon the occurrence of a monetary default or a monetary Event of Default under any of the Loan
Documents, Lender shall not be required to send written notice to Borrower and/or Guarantors. All loan payments are due on the first (1st) day of each month, however; payments will not be considered late until the eleventh (11th) day of each month. In the event the default does not involve the payment of money by Borrower to Lender, Borrower and Guarantors shall have thirty (30) days following receipt of such notice to fully cure such default. In the event the default is cured within such period, it shall be as if no default had occurred.
In all events when Lender takes any action to accelerate, or direct payment to the Lender from persons owing money to Borrower, or exercise any right to setoff, Lender shall within a reasonable time after such action provide written notice thereof to the Borrower.
The notices and opportunity to cure provided for in this section shall be deemed incorporated into each of the Loan Documents, and shall take priority over and supersede any conflicting provision in any of the other Loan Documents.
13.24 Conflicts In the event there is any conflict between this Agreement and the USDA Conditional Commitment for Guarantee, the USDA Conditional Commitment for Guarantee shall control.
13.25 Multiple Signature Pages This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Borrower, Guarantors and Lender each have set their hands and seals, as of the day and year first above written.
