All of the foregoing rights and remedies are cumulative. 9. No Waiver. Neither the failure nor any delay on the part of Secured Party to exercise any right, power, or privilege shall operate as a waiver of such right, power, or privilege, nor shall any single or partial exercise of such right, power, or privilege preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power, or privilege. No waiver of any provision in this Agreement shall be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by Secured Party, and then shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given and to the extent specified in such writing.

Debtor shall defend and indemnify Secured Party against any claims by anyone against Secured Party alleging any liability of Secured Party arising under the Maintenance Agreements and Receivables (but not the products covered by such Maintenance Agreements and Receivables, liability for which shall be governed by the Asset Purchase Agreement). The failure of Secured Party to take any of the actions or exercise any right, interest, power or authority granted to Secured Party hereunder shall not be construed to be a waiver of any such right, interest, power or authority. Debtor will execute upon the request of Secured Party any and all further documents, assignments or instruments that Secured Party reasonably deems appropriate or necessary to evidence or effectuate this Agreement or grant or confirm the rights and interests given to Secured Party hereunder.
