(i) to ask, demand, collect, receive and give acquittances and receipts for any and all moneys due and to become due under any Collateral and, in the name of Borrower or its own name or otherwise, to take possession of, and endorse and collect, any checks, drafts, notes, acceptances or other Instruments for the payment of moneys due under any Collateral and to file any claim or to take any other action or proceeding in any court of law or entity or otherwise deemed appropriate by Lender for the purpose of collecting any and all such moneys due under any Collateral whenever payable and to file any claim or to take any other action or proceeding in any court of law or equity or otherwise deemed appropriate by Lender for the purpose of collecting any and all such moneys due under any Collateral whenever payable;
