Borrower will pay, as part of the Obligations secured hereby, all amounts, including but not limited to Secured Parties reasonable attorneys’ fees, where permitted by applicable law, and all sums paid by Secured Parties [i] for taxes, levies and insurance on, repair to, or maintenance of, the Collateral, and [ii] in taking possession of, disposing of, or preserving the Collateral, with interest on all of same at the Applicable Rate.
