to protect, preserve or realize upon the Collateral and Secured Party's security
interest therein, in each case as full and effectually as if Secured Party were

shall not impose any duty upon it to exercise any such powers. Neither Secured
Party nor any attorney-in-fact shall be liable for any act or omission, error in
judgment or mistake of law provided the same is not the result of gross
negligence or willful misconduct. Debtor hereby ratifies and approves all acts
of Secured Party, as its attorney-in-fact, and Secured Party, as its
attorney-in-fact, will not be liable for any acts of commission or omission, nor

and this Agreement is terminated. After the occurrence of an Event of Default,
Debtor also authorizes Secured Party, at any time and from time to time, to
communicate in its own name with any party to any contract, agreement or
instrument included in the Collateral with regard to the assignment of such
contract, agreement or instrument and other matters relating thereto. Secured
Party may, but shall be under no obligation, to take any of the foregoing
actions and Secured Party shall have no liability or responsibility for any act
or omission taken with respect thereto.

Party to preserve, defend, protect, maintain, record, amend or enforce the
Obligations, the Collateral, or the security interest granted hereunder,
including but not limited to all filing or recording fees, court costs,
collection charges and reasonable attorneys' fees.
(b) If Debtor fails to perform any agreement contained herein, Secured
Party may itself perform, or cause performance of, such agreement, and the
expenses of the incurred in connection therewith shall be payable by Debtor on
demand together with interest at the then
-6-
applicable rate set forth in the Note and shall be part of the Obligations
secured hereby.
