Xxxxxxxx's ability to repay the loan or perform Borrower's obligations under the

of Xxxxxxxx's property, Xxxxxxxx makes an assignment for the benefit of
creditors, or any proceeding is commenced either by Borrower or against Borrower

security pledged by Borrower in conjunction with the within Loan.
LENDER'S RIGHTS. Upon default, Xxxxxx may declare the entire unpaid principal
balance on the loan and all accrued unpaid interest immediately due, without
notice, and then Borrower will pay that amount. Upon default, including,
failure to pay upon final maturity, Lender, at its option, may also, if
permitted under applicable law, increase the variable interest rate on the
accompanying Note to 3 percentage points over the rate of interest charged prior
to default. The interest rate will not exceed the maximum rate permitted by
applicable law. Lender may hire or pay some other individual/entity to help
collect/enforce the obligations due under the loan agreements if Borrower does
not pay; Borrower will also pay Lender for such additional amounts. This
includes, subject to any limits under applicable law, Xxxxxx's attorneys' fees
and Xxxxxx's legal expenses, whether or not there is a lawsuit, including
attorneys' fees and legal expenses for bankruptcy proceedings (including efforts
to modify or vacate any automatic stay or injunction), appeals, and any
anticipated post-judgement collection services. If not prohibited by applicable
law, Borrower will pay any court costs, in addition to all other sums provided
by law. This Agreement has been delivered to Lender and accepted by Lender in
the State of New Jersey. If there is a lawsuit, Xxxxxxxx agrees, upon Xxxxxx's
request, to
-6-
submit to the jurisdiction of the courts of Monmouth County, the State of New
Jersey or such other lawful jurisdiction as the Lender may determine. This
Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the
State of New Jersey.
Additionally, upon default, and without any further notice to the Borrower,
the Lender shall have complete and uninterrupted access to the Commerce Bank
Savings Account (Account #0000000) which has been pledged as collateral for the
within Loan. That is, the said Savings Account has been assigned to the Lender,
and/or its successors. By signing the within Agreement, Xxxxxxxx consents to
the assignment of the aforementioned Savings Account to the benefit of the
Lender, or its successor. However, notwithstanding anything contained herein to
the contrary, such an assignment shall only occur if Borrower is in default of
any of its obligations connected with the within Agreement.
With regard to the above, the Borrower shall sign and execute such other
documents as Lender may, in its sole discretion, deem necessary to effectuate
the assignment as aforesaid. Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints Xxxxxx,
and/or its successor, as its Power of Attorney to sign any and all documents in
this regard. The representations and obligations contained herein shall survive
settlement.
Finally, nothing contained herein shall prevent Lender (and/or its
successors) from pursuing any other recourse as law or equity may allow.
ADDITIONAL REMEDIES: Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary,
in the event of Xxxxxxxx's default, Lender may also avail itself to the
following:
TERMINATION OF ACCOUNT. If Borrower's Account is in default, Lender may,
at its option, and without further notice or demand, eliminate Borrower's
available credit by reducing Borrower's credit line to zero. In such an
event, Lender will require Borrower to return any unused credit line
account checks (if applicable) and, until Borrower does so, and until the
principal balance of the loan has been paid in full, Lender will not
release its interest in the collateral for the loan. Additionally, in such
an event, Lender will no longer supply Borrower with additional credit line
account checks (if applicable). Moreover, Borrower shall immediately repay
to Lender, any principal balance, accrued finance charges, and any other
charges which may be due and owing.
SUSPENSION OF CREDIT PRIVILEGES. Lender may, temporarily or permanently,
prohibit additional advances, or may reduce Borrower's credit line during
any period in which (a) the value of the Lender's collateral declines
significantly; (b) Lender has reason to believe that the Borrower will be
unable to
-7-
meet the repayment terms set forth herein because there has been a material
change in any of the Borrower's financial circumstances; and/or (c)
Borrower does not abide by any obligation contained in the within
Agreement.
CESSATION OF ADVANCES. Lender shall have no obligation to make Loan
Advances or to disburse Loan proceeds under this Agreement or under any
other agreement if: (a) Borrower or any Guarantor is in default under the
terms of this Agreement or any of the Related Documents or any other
agreement that Borrower or any Guarantor has with Lender; (b) Borrower or
any Guarantor dies, becomes incompetent or insolvent, files a petition in
bankruptcy or similar proceeds, or is adjudged a bankrupt; (c) there occurs
a material adverse change in Borrower's financial condition, in the
financial condition of any Guarantor, or in the value of any Collateral
securing any Loan; (d) any Guarantor seeks, claims or otherwise attempts to
limit, modify or revoke such Guarantor's guaranty of the Loan or any other
loan with Lender; or (e) Lender in good xxxxx xxxxx itself insecure, even
though no Event of Default shall have occurred.
CLOSING OF ACCOUNT. Upon sixty (60) days advanced written notice to Lender (at
the address shown above), Borrower may close the Account if (a) the principal
balance on the account is zero; and (b) Borrower (if applicable) has not issued
any credit line account checks which are still outstanding. In the event both
the aforementioned conditions (and any other conditions contained in the loan)
are satisfied, within sixty (60) days of the receipt of Xxxxxxxx's request to
close the account, Xxxxxx will release its security interest in the collateral
which secures the account.
RIGHT OF SETOFF. Borrower grants to Lender a contractual security interest in,
and hereby assigns, conveys, delivers, pledges, and transfers to Lender all
Borrower's right, title, and interest in and to Borrower's accounts with Lender
(whether checking, savings, certificate of deposit, or some other account),
including, without limitation, all accounts held jointly with another
entity/individual and all accounts Borrower may open in the future, excluding,
however, all IRA and Xxxxx Accounts, and all trust accounts for which the grant
of a security interest would be prohibited by law. Borrower authorizes Xxxxxx,
to the extent permitted by applicable law, to charge or setoff all sums owing on
this Agreement against any and all such accounts.
