(b) any representation or warranty made in this Agreement, any Secured Note or any written statement pursuant hereto or thereto or any other report, financial statement or certificate made or delivered to Eagle shall be untrue or incorrect in any material respect as of the date when made or deemed made; or
(c) the failure or refusal by Debtor to perform, or the breach or violation of, any of any materials terms, obligations, covenants, or warranties of this Agreement and that failure or refusal continues unremedied for five (5) business days after written notice of such failure or refusal is given to Debtor.

12. Rights Cumulative. The rights, powers, and remedies of Eagle under this Agreement shall be in addition to all rights, powers, and remedies given to Eagle by virtue of any statute or rule of law or any agreement, all of which rights, powers and remedies shall be cumulative and may be exercised successively or concurrently without impairing Eagle’s security interest, Lien, and assignment in the Collateral.
13. Indemnity and Expenses.
Eagle shall not have any liability to any Person and shall be indemnified and held harmless by Hawkeye and Debtor for any liability incurred by reason of taking or refraining from taking any action with respect to the Collateral, except in the case such liability results solely from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Eagle as determined by a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction. Hawkeye and Debtor agree to indemnify Eagle from and against any and all claims, losses, and liabilities arising out of or connected with this Agreement (including, without limitation, enforcement of this Agreement), except such claims, losses, or liabilities resulting solely from Eagle’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction. This Section 13 shall survive any termination of this Agreement.
14. Amendment or Waiver. Neither this Agreement nor any terms hereof may be changed, waived, discharged, or terminated unless such change, waiver, discharge or termination is in writing signed by Hawkeye, Debtor and Eagle.
15. Notices. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all notices and other communications provided for hereunder shall be in writing and mailed or delivered: if to Hawkeye or Debtor, at the addresses specified immediately below such name on the signature page hereof; and if to Eagle at its address specified immediately below its name on the signature page hereof; or at such other address as shall be designated by any party in a written notice to the other parties hereto. All such notices and communications shall be deemed effectively given: (a) upon personal delivery to the party to be notified, (b) when sent by confirmed electronic mail or facsimile if sent during normal business hours of the recipient, if not, then on the next business day, (c) five (5) days after having been sent by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, or (d) one (1) day after deposit with a nationally recognized overnight courier, specifying next day delivery, with written verification of receipt.
16. No Waiver. No failure or delay on the part of Eagle in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder or under the UCC or any other applicable law shall operate as a waiver hereof or thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power, or privilege hereunder or under the UCC or any other applicable law preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege hereunder or thereunder. No notice to or demand on Eagle in any case shall entitle Hawkeye or Debtor to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of the rights of Eagle to any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand.
17. Severability of Provisions. Any provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to that jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of that prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof or affecting the validity or enforceability of that provision in any other jurisdiction.

18. Non-Assignment. Neither Hawkeye nor Debtor shall have the right to assign its rights or delegate its obligations hereunder or any part thereof to any other person without Eagle’s prior written consent.
