Lender shall have the right upon any such public sale or sales, and, to the extent permitted by law, upon any such private sale or sales, to purchase the whole or any part of the Collateral so sold, free of any right or equity of redemption in any Grantor, which right or equity is hereby waived and released. Each Grantor further agrees, at the Lender’s request, to assemble the Collateral, or any part thereof, and make it available to the Lender at places that the Lender shall reasonably select, whether at such Grantor’s premises or elsewhere. Lender shall have the right to enter Grantor’s premises to take possession of the Collateral by any method permitted by law and to collect any and all proceeds and rents, income, and profits received in connection with the Collateral.
(h) Lender may exercise any and all other rights and remedies under this Agreement, the Loan Documents or at Law (including the Uniform Commercial Code), equity or otherwise.
Without limitation of the foregoing, upon the occurrence of an actual or deemed entry of an order for relief with respect to any Borrower under the Bankruptcy Code (Title 11 of the United States Code, as in effect from time to time), any obligation of Lender to make advances shall automatically terminate, and the unpaid principal amount of the Loan outstanding and all interest and other amounts payable hereunder and under the Note and other Loan Documents shall automatically become due and payable, in each case without further act of Lender.
Section 7.2 No Release or Waiver; Remedies Cumulative and Concurrent.
Borrowers and Grantors shall not be relieved of any Obligation by reason of the failure of Lender to comply with any request of a Borrower or Grantor or of any other Person to take action to foreclose on the Property or Collateral under the Security Instruments or otherwise to enforce any provision of the Loan Documents, or by reason of the release, regardless of consideration, of all or any part of any Property. No delay or omission of Lender to exercise any right, power or remedy accruing upon the happening of an Event of Default shall impair any such right, power or remedy or shall be construed to be a waiver of any such Event of Default or any acquiescence therein. No delay or omission on the part of Lender to exercise any option for acceleration of the maturity of the Obligations, or for foreclosure of the Security Instruments following any Event of Default as aforesaid, or any other option granted to Lender hereunder in any one or more instances, or the acceptance by Lender of any partial payment on account of the Obligations shall constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default and each such option shall remain continuously in full force and effect. No remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to Lender is intended to be exclusive of any other remedies provided for in the Loan Documents, and each and every such remedy shall be cumulative, and shall be in addition to every other remedy given hereunder, or under the Loan Documents, or now or hereafter existing at Law or in equity or by statute. Every right, power and remedy given by the Loan Documents to Lender shall be concurrent and may be pursued separately, successively or together against any Borrower or any Property or any part thereof, and every right, power and remedy given by the Loan Documents may be exercised from time to time as often as may be deemed expedient by Xxxxxx. All notice and cure periods provided in this Agreement or in any Loan Document shall run concurrently with any notice or cure periods provided by Law. To the extent permitted by Law, each Grantor waives all claims, damages and demands it may acquire against any Lender arising out of the exercise by them of any rights hereunder. If any notice of a proposed sale or other disposition of Collateral shall be required by law, such

notice shall be deemed reasonable and proper if given at least ten (10) days before such sale or other disposition.

Section 8.1 Further Assurances; Authorization to File Documents.
At any time, and from time to time, upon reasonable request by Xxxxxx, Borrowers and Grantors will, at Borrowers’ expense, (a) correct any defect, error or omission which may be discovered in the form or content of any of the Loan Documents, and (b) make, execute, deliver and record, or cause to be made, executed, delivered and recorded, any and all further instruments, certificates and other documents as may, in the opinion of Lender, be reasonably necessary or desirable in order to complete, perfect or continue and preserve the lien of the Security Instruments. Upon any failure by a Borrower or Grantor to do so, Xxxxxx may make, execute and record any and all such instruments, certificates and other documents for and in the name of such Borrower or Grantor, all at the sole expense of Borrowers, and Borrowers and Grantors hereby appoints Lender the agent and attorney-in-fact of Borrowers and Grantors to do so, this appointment being coupled with an interest and being irrevocable. Without limitation of the foregoing, Borrowers and Grantors irrevocably authorize Lender at any time and from time to time to file any initial financing statements, amendments thereto and continuation statements deemed necessary or desirable by Xxxxxx to establish or maintain the validity, perfection and priority of the security interests granted in the Security Instruments or hereunder, and each Borrower and Grantor ratifies any such filings made by Lender prior to the date hereof. In addition, at any time, and from time to time, upon request by Xxxxxx, Borrowers and Grantors will, at Borrowers’ expense, provide any and all further instruments, certificates and other documents as may, in the opinion of Lender, be reasonably necessary or desirable in order to verify Borrowers’ and Grantors’ identity and background in a manner reasonably satisfactory to Lender.
Section 8.2 No Warranty by Xxxxxx.
By accepting or approving anything required to be observed, performed or fulfilled by Borrowers or to be given to Lender pursuant to this Agreement, including any certificate, Survey, receipt, appraisal or insurance policy, Lender shall not be deemed to have warranted or represented the sufficiency, legality, effectiveness or legal effect of the same, or of any term, provision or condition thereof and any such acceptance or approval thereof shall not be or constitute any warranty or representation with respect thereto by Lender.
Section 8.3 Standard of Conduct of Lender.
Nothing contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall limit the right of Lender to exercise its business judgment or to act, in the context of the granting or withholding of any advance or consent under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, in a subjective manner, whether or not objectively reasonable under the circumstances, so long as Xxxxxx's exercise of its business judgment or action is made or undertaken in good faith. Borrowers and Lender intend by the foregoing to set forth and affirm their entire understanding with respect to the standard pursuant to which Xxxxxx's duties and obligations are to be judged and the parameters within which Xxxxxx's discretion may be exercised hereunder and under the other Loan Documents. As used herein, “good faith” means honesty in fact in the conduct and transaction concerned.

Section 8.5 Severability.
In the event any one or more of the provisions of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents shall for any reason be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, in whole or in part or in any other respect, or in the event any one or more of the provisions of any of the Loan Documents operates or would prospectively operate to invalidate this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, then and in either of those events, at the option of Lender, such provision or provisions only shall be deemed null and void and shall not affect the validity of the remaining Obligations, and the remaining provisions of the Loan Documents shall remain operative and in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, prejudiced or disturbed thereby.
Section 8.6 Authorized Signers.
Xxxxxx is authorized to rely upon the continuing authority of the Authorized Signers to bind any Borrower and Grantor with respect to all matters pertaining to the Loan and the Loan Documents. Such authorization may be changed only upon written notice addressed to Xxxxxx accompanied by evidence, reasonably satisfactory to Xxxxxx, of the authority of the Person giving such notice.

of the duties, obligations, and liabilities of any other Borrower. Lender may bring a separate action or actions on each, any, or all of the Obligations against any Borrower, whether action is brought against any other Borrower or whether any other Borrower is joined in such action.

(d)Xxxxxx shall have right to seek recourse against each Borrower to the fullest extent provided for herein, and no election by Xxxxxx to proceed in one form of action or proceeding, or against any party, or on any obligation, shall constitute a waiver of Lender’s right to proceed in any other form of action or proceeding or against other parties unless Xxxxxx has expressly waived such right in writing. Specifically, but without limiting the generality of the foregoing, no action or proceeding by Lender under this Agreement and the Loan Documents shall serve to diminish the liability of either Borrower under this Agreement and the Loan Documents to which Borrowers are a party except to the extent that Lender finally and unconditionally shall have realized indefeasible payment by such action or proceeding.
(e)Xxxxxx has agreed, in lieu of maintaining separate loan accounts on Xxxxxx’s books in the name of each of the Borrowers, that Xxxxxx may maintain a single loan account under the name of all Borrowers (the “Loan Account”).
