Stay. Debtor acknowledges and agrees that should a
proceeding under any bankruptcy or insolvency law be commenced by or against
Debtor, or if any of the Collateral should become the subject of any bankruptcy
or insolvency proceeding, then the Subscribers should be entitled to, among
other relief to which the Subscribers may be entitled under the Note,
Subscription Agreement, Transaction Documents, and any other agreement to which
the Debtor and Subscribers are parties, (collectively “Loan Documents”) and/or
applicable law, an order from the court granting immediate relief from the
automatic stay pursuant to 11 U.S.C. Section 362 to permit the Subscribers to
exercise all of its rights and remedies pursuant to the Loan Documents and/or
applicable law. DEBTOR EXPRESSLY WAIVES THE BENEFIT OF THE
AUTOMATIC STAY IMPOSED BY 11 U.S.C. SECTION 362. FURTHERMORE, DEBTOR
EXPRESSLY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT NEITHER 11 U.S.C. SECTION 362 NOR ANY
OTHER SECTION OF THE BANKRUPTCY CODE OR OTHER STATUTE OR RULE (INCLUDING,
WITHOUT LIMITATION, 11 U.S.C. SECTION 105) SHALL STAY, INTERDICT, CONDITION,
REDUCE OR INHIBIT IN ANY WAY THE ABILITY OF THE SUBSCRIBERS TO ENFORCE ANY OF
ITS RIGHTS AND REMEDIES UNDER THE LOAN DOCUMENTS AND/OR APPLICABLE
LAW. Debtor
hereby consents to any motion for relief from stay which may be filed by the
Subscribers in any bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding initiated by or against
Debtor, and further agrees not to file any opposition to any motion for relief
from stay filed by the Subscribers. Debtor represents, acknowledges
and agrees that this provision is a specific and material aspect of this
Agreement, and that the Subscribers would not agree to the terms of this
Agreement if this waiver were not a part of this
Agreement. Debtor further represents, acknowledges and agrees
that this waiver is knowingly, intelligently and voluntarily made, that neither
the Subscribers nor any person acting on behalf of the Subscribers has made any
representations to induce this waiver, that Debtor has been represented (or has
had the opportunity to be represented) in the signing of this Agreement and in
the making of this waiver by independent legal counsel selected by Debtor and
that Debtor has had the opportunity to discuss this waiver with
counsel. Debtor further agrees that any bankruptcy or
insolvency proceeding initiated by Debtor will only be brought in the Federal
