Except as otherwise provided by this Agreement, Borrower shall immediately endorse and deliver to Lender all proceeds of any policy.

 

C. pay, or cause to be paid, before they become delinquent, all taxes, assessments, and other similar charges levied upon it or any of its subsidiaries (including GLFH) or with respect to any of the property or assets of such entity and will promptly deliver to Lender satisfactory evidence of payment of them.

All sums that Borrower pays to Lender under this paragraph may be commingled with the general funds of Lender, and no interest shall be payable to Borrower with respect to them.
