Upon a Borrower’s knowledge of any such failure, Borrowers shall immediately notify Bank of the same and Borrowers shall cure such failure within 15 days thereafter. Without creating or imposing any obligation or duty on Bank to inquire, investigate or monitor, in the event that Bank becomes aware of any such failure to observe or perform any obligation to be observed or performed by Borrowers hereunder or under any Loan Document, Bank shall notify Borrowers of such failure and Borrowers shall cure such failure within 15 days thereafter. The failure of Borrowers to so cure such failure within such 15 day period shall constitute an Event of Default under this Subsection. The parties agree that the delay of Bank to so notify Borrowers as provided in this Subsection shall not constitute a waiver of any provision of this Agreement but shall only require that Bank notify Borrowers and Borrowers be granted such right to cure such failure within such period prior to the exercise of Bank’s rights pursuant to this Section;

(d)

A Borrower shall fail to pay any Indebtedness in an aggregate principal amount in excess of $100,000 due any third persons and such failure shall continue beyond any applicable grace period, or a Borrower shall default under any material agreement binding such Borrower and such default shall continue beyond any applicable grace period;

(e)

any financial statement, representation, warranty or certificate made or furnished by or with respect to Borrowers to Bank in connection with this Agreement, or as an inducement to Bank to enter into this Agreement, or in any separate statement or document to be delivered to Bank hereunder, shall be materially false, incorrect or incomplete when made;

(f)

either Borrower shall admit their inability to pay their debts as they mature or shall make an assignment for the benefit of themselves or any of their creditors;

(g)

proceedings in bankruptcy, or for reorganization of a Borrower or for the readjustment of debt under Bankruptcy Code, as amended, or any part thereof, or under any other laws, whether state or federal, for the relief of debtors, now or hereafter existing, shall be commenced against or by a Borrower and, except with respect to any such proceedings instituted by a Borrower, shall not be discharged or stayed within 60 days of their commencement;

(h)

a receiver or trustee shall be appointed for a Borrower or for any substantial part of its assets, or any proceedings shall be instituted for the dissolution or the full or partial liquidation of a Borrower, and except with respect to any such appointments requested or instituted by a Borrower such receiver or trustee shall not be discharged within 60 days of his appointment, and except with respect to any such proceedings instituted by a Borrower such proceedings shall not be discharged within 60 days of their commencement, or a Borrower shall discontinue business or materially change the nature of their business;

(i)

A Borrower shall suffer final judgments for payment of money aggregating in excess of $100,000 which are not covered, without reservation, by insurance and shall not discharge the same within a period of 30 days unless, pending further proceedings, execution has not been commenced or, if commenced, has been effectively stayed;

Guarantor shall at any time have consolidated total stockholders’ equity, as reported in its quarterly and annual financial statements, of less than $7,500,000; or

(k)

a judgment creditor of a Borrower shall obtain possession of any of the Collateral by any means, including (without implied limitation) levy, distraint, replevin or self-help.

Section 9.02. Rights and Remedies. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Bank may refrain from making any further disbursements hereunder (but Bank may make disbursements after the occurrence of such an Event of Default without thereby waiving its rights and remedies hereunder), and Bank may exercise any or all of the following rights and remedies:

(a)

Bank may exercise and enforce its rights and remedies under any or all of the Loan Documents;

(b)

Bank may enter upon the property, if allowed under applicable law, and take possession thereof; or

ARTICLE X
MISCELLANEOUS

Section 10.01. No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No failure or delay on the part of Bank in exercising any right, power or remedy under the Loan Documents shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or remedy preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy under the Loan Documents. Subject to the foregoing, in the event a Borrower violates any agreements, covenants or promises contained in the Loan Documents and request that Bank waives compliance with such agreements, covenants or promises or forbear from exercising Bank’s rights in connection with such violations, and Bank agrees to such waiver or forbearance, Borrowers shall forthwith pay $5,000 to Bank in consideration for complying with each such request. The remedies provided in the Loan Documents are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law.

No amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any provision of any of the Loan Documents or consent to any departure by a Borrower therefrom shall be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by Bank and Borrowers, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given.
