The sale or other disposition may be made for such price and upon such terms and conditions as Investment Manager, if any, may deem best in its exercise of its commercially reasonable discretion. Investment Manager may apply the proceeds from such sale or sales or such other disposition or dispositions: first, to the settlement of all liens or claims on the Collateral with a lien priority greater than that of Investment Manager, if any; second, to the payment of all expenses connected with the assembly, preservation, preparation, and sale or other disposition of the Collateral, including any trustees’ or auctioneers’ fees, commissions or other expenses; third, to the payment and satisfaction in full of the Obligations; and fourth, returning the excess, if any, to Borrowers.

Whether or not such failure shall constitute an Event of Default, Investment Manager may, in its sole discretion, pay any amount or do any act which Borrowers or any of them fails to do or pay as required by the terms of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents. Investment Manager may also take any actions, make any payments, or incur any reasonable expenses (including, without limitation, the payment of filing fees, court costs, travel expenses and attorneys’ fees) as may be necessary or appropriate to preserve, defend, protect, maintain, record or enforce the Obligations, the Collateral, or the security interest granted hereunder.

11.

6.7 Right to Defend. Whether or not such failure shall constitute an Event of Default, if any material portion of the Collateral is or becomes the subject of any litigation or other proceeding and Borrowers fail to reasonably defend such litigation or other proceeding and to reasonably protect Borrowers’ and Investment Manager’s rights in such Collateral in good faith, then Investment Manager may, at its sole option, elect to defend and control the defense of such litigation or other proceeding, including the right to: (a) select and retain counsel; (b) determine whether settlement shall be offered or accepted; and (c) determine and negotiate all settlement terms.

ARTICLE VII

ADDITIONAL PROVISIONS

7.1 Deficiency. Borrowers shall be and remain liable for all of the Obligations remaining after crediting to Borrowers any net proceeds received by Investment Manager following exercise of any of its rights and remedies hereunder.

7.2 No Duty to Act. Nothing contained in this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents shall be construed as requiring Investment Manager or Lender to take any particular enforcement or remedial action or combination of enforcement or remedial actions at any time.

7.3 Remedies Not Limited; Partial Exercise. All of Investment Manager’s and Lender’s rights and remedies, whether provided under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, at law, in equity, or otherwise shall be cumulative and none is exclusive. Such rights and remedies may be enforced alternatively, successively or concurrently, and each Borrower hereby agrees that Investment Manager may enforce its rights hereunder with respect to individual items or classes of Collateral without waiving or prejudicing in any respect Investment Manager’s rights hereunder with respect to any other items or classes of Collateral. Investment Manager and Lender may exercise any other right or remedy which may be available to them under this Agreement, the Credit Agreement or applicable law, including, without limitation, the remedies set forth in Section 7.2 of the Credit Agreement, or may proceed by appropriate court action to enforce the terms hereof, to recover damages for the breach hereof, or to rescind this Agreement in whole or in part.

7.4 Costs of Enforcement. Borrowers shall be liable for all reasonable costs incurred by Investment Manager and Lender in collecting any sums owed to Investment Manager and Lender under the Loan Documents or in otherwise enforcing any of the Obligations (whether or not suit is brought), including, but not limited to, all reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, court costs, and reasonable costs of consultants, appraisers and other advisors retained by Investment Manager and Lender. To the extent of any exercise by Investment Manager or Lender of their rights under

12.

Section 6.6, any reasonable expenditures made for such purpose shall be added to the principal amount outstanding under the Credit Agreement.

7.5 Mitigation of Damages. To the extent permitted by the applicable law, each Borrower hereby waives any notice or other mandatory requirements of applicable law, now or hereafter in effect, which might require Investment Manager to sell, lease or otherwise use any of the Collateral in mitigation of Investment Manager’s or Lender’s damages; provided, however, that such Borrower does not waive any legal requirement that Investment Manager act in a commercially reasonable manner.

7.6 No Waivers by Investment Manager. No failure of Investment Manager or Lender to exercise, or delay by Investment Manager or Lender in the exercise of, any rights or remedies granted herein following the occurrence of an Event of Default shall constitute a waiver of any of Investment Manager’s or Lender’s rights with respect to such Event of Default or any subsequent Event of Default (whether or not similar). Any failure or delay by Investment Manager or Lender to require strict performance by any Borrower of any of the provisions, warranties, terms and conditions contained herein or in any other agreement, document or instrument, shall not affect Investment Manager’s and Lender’s right to demand strict compliance and performance therewith.

7.7 Waiver of Notice and Hearing Regarding Probable Cause by Borrowers. Each Borrower acknowledges being advised of a constitutional right, as to pre-judgment relief as may be sought by Investment Manager through the process of a court, to notice and a court hearing to determine whether, upon default, there is probable cause to sustain the validity of Investment Manager’s claim and whether Investment Manager is entitled to possession of the Collateral. Being so advised, each Borrower, in regard to such relief, hereby voluntarily gives up, waives and surrenders any right to a notice and hearing to determine whether there is probable cause to sustain the validity of Investment Manager’s claim. Any notices required pursuant to any state or local law shall be deemed reasonable if mailed by Investment Manager to the persons entitled thereto at its last known address at least ten days prior to disposition of the Collateral, and in reference to a private sale, need state only that Investment Manager intends to negotiate such a sale.

7.8 Investment Manager’s Actions. Investment Manager and Lender may take or release the Collateral or other security, may release any party primarily or secondarily liable for any indebtedness to Investment Manager or Lender, may grant extensions, renewals or indulgences with respect to such indebtedness, and may apply any other security therefor held by either of them to the satisfaction of such indebtedness, all without prejudice to any of their rights or Borrowers’ obligations hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents.

7.9 Liability for Loss. Neither Investment Manager nor Lender shall be liable for any loss to the Collateral in its possession, nor shall such loss diminish the debt due, even if the loss is caused or contributed by Investment Manager’s or Lender’s negligence, except as otherwise provided in the Code.

13.

7.10 Notices. All notices hereunder shall be given in accordance with the notice provisions in the Credit Agreement. Borrowers agree that ten (10) days prior notice of the time and place of any public sale of all or any portion of the Collateral, or of the time after which a private sale of all or any portion of the Collateral will be made, is commercially reasonable notice.
