The rights of the Bank under this paragraph are in addition to other rights the Bank may have in the Related Documents or by law. In this paragraph: (a) the term “Deposits” means any and all accounts and deposits of the Borrower or any Subsidiary (whether general, special, time, demand, provisional or final) at any

8.9

Counterparts. This agreement may be executed in multiple counterparts, each of which, when so executed, shall be deemed an original, but all such counterparts, taken together, shall constitute one and the same agreement.
