At any time an Event of Default exists or has occurred and is continuing, Lender shall have all rights and remedies provided in this Note, the other Loan Documents, the UCC and

-3-

other applicable law, all of which rights and remedies may be exercised without notice to or consent by Borrower except as such notice or consent is expressly provided for hereunder or required by applicable law. All rights, remedies and powers granted to Lender hereunder, under any of the other Loan Documents, the UCC or other applicable law, are cumulative, not exclusive and enforceable, in Xxxxxx’s discretion, alternatively, successively, or concurrently on any one or more occasions, and shall include, without limitation, the right to apply to a court of equity for an injunction to restrain a breach or threatened breach by Xxxxxxxx. Lender may at any time or times, proceed directly against Borrower to collect the Obligations without prior recourse to the Collateral or any other collateral.

(c)

Without limiting the foregoing, or any of the Lender’s rights under the Security Agreement, at any time an Event of Default exists or has occurred and is continuing, Lender may, in its discretion (i) collect, foreclose, receive, appropriate, setoff and realize upon any and all Collateral and/or (ii) sell, lease, transfer, assign, deliver or otherwise dispose of any and all Collateral (including entering into contracts with respect thereto, public or private sales at any exchange, broker's board, at any office of Lender or elsewhere) at such prices or terms as Lender may deem reasonable, for cash, upon credit or for future delivery, with the Lender having the right to purchase the whole or any part of the Collateral at any such public sale, all of the foregoing being free from any right or equity of redemption of Borrower, which right or equity of redemption is hereby expressly waived and released by Borrower.

(d)

Borrower shall remain liable to Lender for the payment of any deficiency with interest at the highest rate provided for herein and all costs and expenses of collection or enforcement, including attorneys' fees and expenses as set forth in Section 3 hereof.

Waivers.

(a)

Lender shall not have any liability to Borrower (whether in tort, contract, equity or otherwise) for losses suffered by Borrower in connection with, arising out of, or in any way related to the transactions or relationships contemplated by this Note, any other Loan Documents, or any act, omission or event occurring in connection herewith, unless it is determined by a final and non-appealable judgment or court order binding on Lender, that the losses were the result of acts or omissions constituting Lender’s gross negligence or willful misconduct relating to this Note or the Loan Documents. In any such litigation, Xxxxxx shall be entitled to the benefit of the rebuttable presumption that it acted in good faith and with the exercise of ordinary care in the performance by it of the terms of this Note or the other Loan Documents. Xxxxxxxx: (i) certifies that neither Xxxxxx nor any representative, agent or attorney acting for or on behalf of Xxxxxx has represented, expressly or otherwise, that Xxxxxx would not, in the event of litigation, seek to enforce any of the waivers provided for in this Note or any of the other Loan Documents and (ii) acknowledges that in entering into this Note and the other

-4-

Loan Documents, Xxxxxx is relying upon, among other things, the waivers and certifications set forth in this Section and elsewhere herein and in the other Loan Documents.

(b)

Borrower (i) waives diligence, demand, presentment, protest and all other demands and notices of any kind or nature whatsoever with respect to the Obligations, the Collateral, this Note and/or any of the other Loan Documents, except such as are expressly provided for herein, (ii) agrees that it will not be necessary for Lender to first institute suit in order to enforce payment of this Note and (iii) consents to any one or more extensions or postponements of time of payment, release, surrender or substitution of collateral security, or forbearance or other indulgence, without notice or consent. The pleading of any statute of limitations as a defense to any demand against Borrower is expressly hereby waived by Xxxxxxxx. No notice to or demand on Borrower which Lender may elect to give shall entitle Borrower to any other or further notice or demand in the same, similar or other circumstances.

(c)

Lender shall not, by any act, delay, omission or otherwise be deemed to have expressly or impliedly waived any of its rights, powers and/or remedies unless such waiver shall be in writing and signed by Xxxxxx as provided herein. Any such waiver shall be enforceable only to the extent specifically set forth therein. A waiver by Lender of any right, power and/or remedy on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to or waiver of any such right, power and/or remedy which Lender would otherwise have on any future occasion, whether similar in kind or otherwise.

(d)

Borrower waives all rights to interpose any claims, deductions, setoffs or counterclaims of any nature (other than compulsory counterclaims) in any action or proceeding with respect to this Note, any of the other Loan Documents, the Obligations, the Collateral or any matter arising therefrom or relating hereto or thereto.

Amendments and Waivers.

Neither this Note nor any other Loan Documents nor any terms hereof or thereof may be amended, waived, discharged or terminated unless such amendment, waiver, discharge or termination is in writing signed by Xxxxxx, and as to amendments to any of the Loan Documents, also by Borrower and such amendment, waiver, discharge or termination shall be effective and binding as to Lender only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given.
