If Senior Lender shall determine, in connection with any sale of Collateral, that the release of the Lien (if applicable) of any Subordinated Loan Document on such Collateral in connection with such sale is necessary or advisable, Subordinated Lender shall execute such release documents and instruments and shall take such further actions as Senior Lender shall request. Subordinated Lender hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints Senior Lender and any officer or Senior Lender, with full power of substitution, as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact with full irrevocable power and authority in the place and stead of Subordinated Lender and in the name of Subordinated Lender or in Senior Lender’s own name, from time to time in Senior Lender’s discretion, for the purpose of carrying out the terms of this paragraph, to take any and all appropriate action and to execute any and all documents and
