To the contrary, Lender expressly reserves, and Loan Parties acknowledge and agree that at all times Lender has expressly reserved, all of its rights and remedies in respect of the Existing Event of Default and any other Default or Event of Default. Notwithstanding any previous practice to the contrary and for the avoidance of doubt, each Loan Party acknowledges and agrees that all Obligations shall be due and payable upon the expiration (due to the passage of time) or termination (due to the occurrence of a Forbearance Default) of the Forbearance Period (the date whichever occurs first being referred to in this Agreement as the “Forbearance Termination Date”) and that Lender shall be entitled to exercise its rights and remedies immediately upon the failure of Borrower to pay any amounts as and when due hereunder.
