and
all of the rights and remedies of the Secured Parties hereunder and of the
Secured Parties in respect of such collateral security and other assurances
of
payment shall be cumulative and in addition to all other rights and remedies,
however existing or arising. To the extent that it lawfully may, each of the
Pledgors hereby agrees that it will not invoke any Applicable Law relating
to
the marshalling of collateral which might cause delay in or impede the
enforcement of the Secured Parties’ rights and remedies under this Agreement or
under any other instrument creating or evidencing any of the Obligations or
under which any of the Obligations is outstanding or by which any of the
Obligations is secured or payment thereof is otherwise assured, and, to the
