8. Events of Default. The failure of Borrower and/or Guarantors to strictly and timely observe or perform any term, condition, covenant or agreement contained herein or the occurrence of any Event of Defaults under the terms of the Loan Documents shall constitute an default hereunder (individually an “Event of Default” and collectively “Events of Default”).
