If any such policies of insurance contain a co-insurance clause, the Debtor will either cause any such co-insurance clause to be waived or maintain at all times a sufficient amount of insurance to meet the requirements of any such co-insurance clause so as to prevent the Debtor from becoming a co-insurer under the terms of any such policy. All 8 such policies must name the Secured Party as an additional insured and loss payee thereof, as the Secured Party's interests may appear, and must provide that the insurer will give the Secured Party at least 10 days written notice of intended cancellation. At the Secured Party's request, the Debtor must furnish the Secured Party with a copy of any policy of insurance and certificate of insurance or other evidence satisfactory to the Secured Party that such insurance coverage is in effect. The Debtor must give the Secured Party notice of any damage to, or loss of, the Collateral forthwith upon the occurrence of any such damage or loss. Should the Debtor fail to make any payment or perform any other obligation provided in this Section, the Secured Party will have the right, but not the obligation, without notice or demand upon the Debtor and without releasing the Debtor from any obligation hereunder or waiving any rights to enforce this Agreement, to perform any or all of such obligations. The amount of all such payments made and all costs, fees and expenses incurred by the Secured Party in performing such obligations will be immediately due and payable by the Debtor. 5. DEALING WITH COLLATERAL 5.1. DEALING WITH COLLATERAL BY THE DEBTOR The Debtor must not sell, lease or otherwise dispose of any of the Collateral without the prior written consent of the Secured Party, except that the Debtor may, until an Event of Default occurs, deal with its money or sell items of Inventory in the ordinary course of its business so that the purchaser thereof takes title thereto free and clear of the security interest, assignment and mortgage and charge granted hereby, but all proceeds of any such sale will continue to be subject to the security interest, assignment and mortgage and charge granted hereby and all money received by the Debtor will be received as trustee for the Secured Party and must be held separate and apart from other money of the Debtor and must be paid over to the Secured Party upon request. 9 5.2. RIGHTS AND DUTIES OF THE SECURED PARTY 5.2.1. The Secured Party may perform any of its rights and duties hereunder by or through agents and is entitled to retain counsel and to act in reliance upon the advice of such counsel concerning all matters pertaining to its rights and duties hereunder. 5.2.2. In the holding of the Collateral, the Secured Party and any nominee on its behalf is only bound to exercise the same degree of care as it would exercise with respect to similar property of its own of similar value held in the same place. The Secured Party and any nominee on its behalf will be deemed to have exercised reasonable care with respect to the custody and preservation of the Collateral if it takes such action for that purpose as the Debtor reasonably requests in writing, but failure of the Secured Party or its nominee to comply with any such request will not of itself be deemed a failure to exercise reasonable care. 5.3. NOTIFICATION OF ACCOUNT DEBTORS Before an Event of Default occurs, the Secured Party may give notice of this Agreement and the security interest and assignment granted hereby to any account debtors of the Debtor or to any other person liable to the Debtor and, after the occurrence of an Event of Default, may give notice to any such account debtors or other person to make all further payments to the Secured Party, and any payment or other proceeds of Collateral received by the Debtor from account debtors or from any other person liable to the Debtor whether before or after any notice is given by the Secured Party must be held by the Debtor in trust for the Secured Party and paid over to the Secured Party on request. 5.4. APPLICATION OF FUNDS Except where the Debtor, when not in default hereunder, so directs in writing at the time of payment, all money collected or received by the Secured Party 10 in respect of the Collateral may be applied on account of such parts of the Obligations as the Secured Party in its sole discretion determines, or may be held unappropriated in a collateral account, or in the discretion of the Secured Party may be released to the Debtor, all without prejudice to the Secured Party's rights against the Debtor. 6.
