In such event the Lender may, in its discretion, exercise any right or recourse and/or proceed by any action, suit, remedy or proceeding against Borrower or Mariel authorized or permitted by law for the recovery of all the Obligations of the Borrower or Mariel to the Lender and proceed to exercise any and all rights hereunder and under the Security and no such remedy for the enforcement of the rights of the Lender will be exclusive of or dependent on any other remedy but any one or more of such remedies may from time to time be exercised independently or in combination.

11.3

Remedies Cumulative and Waivers

For greater certainty, it is expressly understood and agreed that the rights and remedies of the Lender hereunder or under any other Loan Document or instrument executed pursuant to this Agreement are cumulative and are in addition to and not in substitution for any rights or remedies provided by law or by equity; and any single or partial exercise by the Lender of any right or remedy for a default or breach of any term, covenant, condition or agreement contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document will not be deemed to be a waiver of or to alter, affect or prejudice any other right or remedy or other rights or remedies to which the Lender may be lawfully entitled for such default or breach. Any waiver by the Lender of the strict observance, performance or compliance with any term, covenant, condition or other matter contained herein and any indulgence granted, either expressly or by course of conduct, by the Lender will be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which it was given and will be deemed not to be a waiver of any rights and remedies of the Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document as a result of any other default or breach hereunder or thereunder.

11.4

Saving

The Lender will not be under any obligation to the Borrower or any other Person to realize any Collateral or enforce the Security or any part thereof or to allow any of the Collateral to be sold, dealt with or otherwise disposed of. The Lender will not be responsible or liable to Borrower or any other Person for any loss or damage upon the realization or enforcement of, the failure to realize or enforce the Collateral or any part thereof or the failure to allow any of the Collateral to be sold, dealt with or otherwise disposed of or for any act or omission on their respective parts or on the part of any director, officer, agent, servant or adviser in connection with any of the foregoing, except that the Lender may be responsible or liable for any loss or damage arising from the wilful misconduct or gross negligence of Lender.

11.5

Third Parties

No Person dealing with the Lender or any agent of the Lender will be required to inquire whether the Security has become enforceable, or whether the powers which the Lender is purporting to exercise have been exercisable, or whether any Obligations remain outstanding upon the security thereof, or as to the necessity or expediency of the stipulations and conditions subject to which any sale will be made, or otherwise as to the propriety or regularity of any sale or other disposition or any other dealing with the Collateral charged by such Security or any part thereof.

11.6

Set-Off or Compensation

In addition to and not in limitation of any rights now or hereafter granted under Applicable Law, if repayment is accelerated pursuant to Section 11.1(r), the Lender may at any time and from time to time without notice to the Borrower or any other Person, any notice being expressly waived by the Borrower, set-off and compensate and apply any and all deposits, general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, matured or unmatured, and any other indebtedness at any time owing by the Lender, to or for the credit of or the account of the Borrower, against and on account of the Obligations notwithstanding that any of them are contingent or unmatured.

INDEMNIFICATION, ETC.

12.1

General Indemnity

The Borrower agrees indemnify and hold harmless the Lender, and each of its Affiliates, and Subsidiaries, and its respective officers, directors, employees and agents (each an "Indemnified Party") from and against any and all obligations , losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, claims, costs, expenses and disbursements of any kind or nature (including, without limitation, the disbursements and the fees (on a solicitor-client basis) of one legal counsel (unless it would be inappropriate for one counsel to represent all Indemnified Parties due to a conflict of interest or otherwise in which case, all legal counsel for each Indemnified Party) in connection with any investigative, administrative or judicial proceedings, whether or not any Indemnified Party will be designated a party thereto), (collectively, "Losses") which may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against, any Indemnified Party (whether direct, indirect or consequential and whether based on any federal, provincial, state or local laws or regulations, including, without limitation, securities, environmental and commercial laws and regulations, under common law or in equity, or based on contract or otherwise) in any manner relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any act, event or transaction related or attendant thereto, the making and/or the management of the Loan or the use or intended use of the proceeds of the Loan; provided, however that the Borrower will have no obligation hereunder to any Indemnified Party to the extent that such Losses were caused by or resulted from the wilful misconduct or gross negligence of

such Indemnified Party. To the extent that the undertaking to indemnify set forth in the preceding sentence may be unenforceable against the Borrower because it violates any law or public policy, the Borrower will satisfy such undertaking to the maximum extent permitted by Applicable Law. Any Losses covered by this indemnity will be paid to each Indemnified Party on demand, and, failing prompt payment, will, together with interest thereon at the Deemed Interest Rate from the date incurred by each Indemnified Party until paid in full, be added to the Obligations and be secured by the Collateral. The provisions of this Section 12.1 will survive the satisfaction and payment of all Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.

12.2

Taxes

All payments made by the Borrower under this Agreement and the Loan Documents will be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any present or future income, stamp or other taxes, levies, assessments, imposts, deductions, charges, or withholdings imposed by any foreign, federal, provincial, state, local or other jurisdiction or any Governmental Authority thereof or political subdivision or taxing authority therein, excluding taxes imposed on the net income or the capital of the Lender (all such non-excluded taxes being hereinafter called "Taxes"). If any Taxes are required to be withheld from any amounts so payable to the Lender hereunder or under any Loan Documents the amounts so payable will be increased to the extent necessary to yield to the recipient (after payment of all Taxes) interest or any such other amounts payable hereunder at the rates or in the amounts specified in this Agreement or any other Loan Documents. If the Borrower is required by Applicable Law to make any deduction or withholding on account of any Taxes or other amount from any sum paid or expressed to be payable to the Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, then: (a) the Borrower will notify the Lender of any such requirement or any change in any such requirement as soon as it becomes aware of it; (b) the Borrower will pay any such Taxes or other amount before the date on which penalties attached thereto become due and payable; (c) the sum payable by the Borrower in respect of which the relevant deduction, withholding or payment is required will be increased to the extent necessary to ensure that, after the making of that deduction, withholding or payment, the recipient receives on the due date and retains (free from any liability in respect of any such deduction, withholding or payment) a sum equal to that which it would have received and so retained had no such deduction, withholding or payment been required or made; and (d) within 30 days after payment of any sum from which the Borrower is required by Applicable Law to make any deduction or withholding, and within 30 days after the due date of payment of any Taxes or other amount which it is required by clause (b) above to pay, it will deliver to the Lender all such certified documents and other evidence as to the making of such deduction, withholding or payment as (i) are reasonably satisfactory to the Lender as proof of such deduction, withholding or payment and of the remittance thereof to the relevant taxing or other authority and (ii) are reasonably required by the Lender to enable it to claim a tax credit with respect to such deduction, withholding or payment. If the Borrower fails to pay any Taxes when due to the appropriate taxing authority, the Borrower will indemnify the Lender for any incremental taxes, interest or penalties that may become payable by the Lender as a result of any such failure. The provisions of this Section 12.2 will survive the satisfaction and payment of all Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.
