12. Rights Upon the Occurrence of an Event of Default. In case any one or more Events of Default shall occur and be continuing, Lender may proceed to protect and enforce its rights by an action at law, suit in equity or other appropriate proceeding, whether for the specific performance of any agreement contained herein or for an injunction against a violation of any of the terms hereof, or in aid of the exercise of any power granted hereby or thereby or by law or otherwise.
