in equity. Secured Party may require Debtor to assemble the Collateral and make it available to Secured Party at Debtor’s location. For purposes of the notice requirements of the Code, Secured Party and Debtor agree that notice given at least five (5) days prior to the related action hereunder is reasonable.

All rights and remedies of Secured Party hereunder are cumulative and may be exercised singly or concurrently. The exercise of any right or remedy will not be deemed a waiver of any other.

(g) No remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to Secured Party is intended to be or shall be exclusive of any other remedy, but every remedy herein provided is cumulative and is in addition to every other remedy given hereunder or in any instrument executed in connection herewith, or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity, or by statute; and every such right and remedy may be exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient. No delay or omission by Secured Party to exercise any right or remedy arising from any default will impair any such right or remedy or will be construed to be a waiver thereof or of any such default or an acquiescence therein.

Release of Security Interest. Upon full and complete payment of all sums owing and to be owing by Debtor to Secured Party hereunder and under the Note, at the request and expense of Debtor, Secured Party will make, execute and deliver a reassignment of the properties assigned hereby and of the monies, revenues, proceeds, benefits and payments, if any, that may be owing upon the aforesaid Collateral to Debtor but without covenant or warranty, however, of any kind or character, express or implied, and with the provisions that Secured Party will not be required or called upon to refund or account for any payments properly made to Secured Party which have been or may be properly applied to any Indebtedness secured or to be secured hereby.

Validity of Security Interest. No security taken hereafter as security for payment of any part or all of the Indebtedness shall impair in any manner or effect this Security Agreement; all such present and future additional security to be considered as cumulative security. Any of the Collateral may be released from this Security Agreement without altering, varying or diminishing in any way the force, effect, lien, security interest or charge of this Security Agreement as to the Collateral not expressly released, and this Agreement shall continue as a first lien, security interest and charge on all of the Collateral not expressly released until all sums and indebtedness secured hereby have been paid in full.
