6.2
Acceleration.
(a)
If an Event of Default shall have occurred which has not been cured or waived by the Lender, at the election of the Lender, all Obligations shall become immediately due and payable without notice or demand, except with respect to Obligations payable ON DEMAND, which shall be due and payable ON DEMAND, whether or not an Event of Default has occurred.
(b)
The Lender is hereby authorized, at its election, after an Event of Default shall have occurred which has not been cured or waived by the Lender or after Demand, without any further demand or notice except to such extent as notice may be required by applicable law, to take possession and/or sell or otherwise dispose of all or any of the Collateral at public or private sale; and the Lender may also exercise any and all other rights and remedies of a secured party under the Code or which are otherwise accorded to it in equity or at law, all as Lender may determine, and such exercise of rights in compliance with the requirements of law will not be considered adversely to affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale or other disposition of the Collateral. If notice of a sale or other action by the Lender is required by applicable law, unless the Collateral is perishable or threatens to decline speedily in value or is of a type customarily sold on a recognized market, the Borrower agrees that ten (10) days’ written notice to the Borrower, or the shortest period of written notice permitted by such law, whichever is smaller, shall be sufficient notice; and that to the extent permitted by law, the Lender, its officers, attorneys and agents may bid and become purchasers at any such sale, if public, and may purchase at any private sale any of the Collateral that is of a type customarily sold on a recognized market or which is the subject of widely distributed standard price quotations. Any sale (public or private) shall be without warranty and free from any right of redemption, which the Borrower shall waive and release after default upon the Lender’s request therefor, and may be free of any warranties as to the Collateral if Lender shall so decide. No purchaser at any sale (public or private) shall be responsible for the application of the purchase money. Any balance of the net proceeds of sale remaining after paying all Obligations of the Borrower to the Lender shall be returned to such other party as may be legally entitled thereto; and if there is a deficiency, the Borrower shall be responsible for the same, with interest. Upon demand by the Lender, the Borrower shall assemble the Collateral and make it available to the Lender at a place designated by the Lender which is reasonably convenient to the Lender and the Borrower. The Borrower hereby acknowledges that the Lender has extended credit and other financial accommodations to the Borrower upon reliance of the Borrower’s granting the Lender the rights and remedies contained in this Agreement including without limitation the right to take immediate possession of the Collateral upon the occurrence of an Event of Default which has not been cured or waived by the Lender or after DEMAND with respect to Obligations payable on DEMAND and the Borrower hereby acknowledges that the Lender is entitled to equitable and injunctive relief to enforce any of its rights and remedies hereunder or under the Code and the Borrower hereby waives any defense to such equitable or injunctive relief based upon any allegation of the absence of irreparable harm to the Lender.
11
(c)
The Lender shall not be required to marshal any present or future security for (including but not limited to this Agreement and the Collateral subject to the security interest created hereby), or guarantees of, the Obligations or any of them, or to resort to such security or guarantees in any particular order; and all of its rights hereunder and in respect of such securities and guaranties shall be cumulative and in addition to all other rights, however existing or arising. To the extent that it lawfully may, Borrower hereby agrees that it will not invoke any law relating to the marshalling of collateral which might cause delay in or impede the enforcement of the Lender’s rights under this Agreement or under any other instrument evidencing any of the Obligations or under which any of the Obligations is outstanding or by which any of the Obligations is secured or guaranteed, and to the extent that it lawfully may do so, Borrower hereby irrevocably waives the benefits of all such laws. Except as otherwise provided by applicable law, the Lender shall have no duty as to the collection or protection of the Collateral or any income thereon, nor as to the preservation of rights against prior parties, nor as to the preservation of any rights pertaining thereto beyond the safe custody thereof.
6.3
Power of Attorney. The Borrower hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints the Lender as the Borrower’s true and lawful attorney, with full power of substitution, at the sole cost and expense of the Borrower but for the sole benefit of the Lender, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default which has not been cured or waived by the Lender or after DEMAND with respect to Obligations payable ON DEMAND, to convert the Collateral into cash, including, without limitation, completing the manufacture or processing of work in process, and the sale (either public or private) of all or any portion or portions of the inventory and other Collateral (subject to the notice and other terms provided in Section 6.2, above); to enforce collection of the Collateral, either in its own name or in the name of the Borrower, including, without limitation, executing releases or waivers, compromising or settling with any Debtors and prosecuting, defending, compromising or releasing any action relating to the Collateral; to receive, open and dispose of all mail addressed to the Borrower and to take therefrom any remittances or proceeds of Collateral in which the Lender has a security interest; to notify Post Office authorities to change the address for delivery of mail addressed to the Borrower to such address as the Lender shall designate; to endorse the name of the Borrower in favor of the Lender upon any and all checks, drafts, money orders, notes, acceptances or other instruments of the same or different nature; to sign and endorse the name of the Borrower on and to receive as secured party any of the Collateral, any invoices, freight or express receipts, or bills of lading, storage receipts, warehouse receipts, or other documents of title of the same or different nature relating to the Collateral; to sign the name of the Borrower on any notice of the Debtors or on verification of the Collateral; and to sign, if necessary, and file or record on behalf of the Borrower any financing or other statement in order to perfect or protect the Lender’s security interest. The Lender shall not be obliged to do any of the acts or exercise any of the powers hereinabove authorized, but if the Lender elects to do any such act or exercise any such power, it shall not be accountable for more than it actually receives as a result of such exercise of power, and it shall not be responsible to the Borrower except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. All powers conferred upon the Lender by this Agreement, being coupled with an interest, shall be irrevocable so long as any Obligation of the Borrower or any guarantor or surety to the Lender shall remain unpaid or the Lender is obligated under this Agreement to extend any credit to the Borrower.
6.4
Nonexclusive Remedies. All of the Lender’s rights and remedies not only under the provisions of this Agreement but also under any other agreement or transaction shall be cumulative and not alternative or exclusive, and may be exercised by the Lender at such time or times and in such order of preference as the Lender in its sole discretion may determine.
6.5
Reassignment to Borrower. From and after an Event of Default which has not been cured or waived by the Lender, whenever the Lender deems it desirable that any legal action be instituted with respect to any Collateral or that any other action be taken in any attempt to effectuate collection of any Collateral, the Lender may reassign the item in question to the Borrower (and if the Lender shall execute any such reassignment, it shall automatically be deemed to be without recourse to the Lender in any event) and require the Borrower to proceed with such legal or other action at the Borrower’s sole liability, cost and expense, in which event all amounts collected by the Borrower on such item shall nevertheless be subject to the Lender’s security interest.
7.

7.5
Indemnification. The Borrower shall indemnify, defend and hold the Lender harmless of and from any claim brought or threatened against the Lender by the any unaffiliated third party (as well as from reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses in connection therewith) on account of the Lender’s relationship with the Borrower, or any guarantor or endorser of the Obligations (each of which may be defended, compromised, settled or pursued by the Lender with counsel of the Lender’s election, but at the expense of the Borrower), except for any claim arising out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Lender. The within indemnification shall survive payment of the Obligations, and/or any termination, release or discharge executed by the Lender in favor of the Borrower.
