10.        No failure to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy under this Agreement or under any document delivered by Borrower pursuant hereto or heretofore pursuant to the transactions contemplated hereby shall impair any right, power or remedy which Lender may have, nor shall any such delay be construed to be a waiver of any of such rights, powers or remedies, or an acquiescence in any breach or default under this Agreement or any document delivered pursuant to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, nor shall any waiver of any breach or default of Borrower be deemed a waiver of any default or breach subsequently occurring.
