h. The Debtor authorizes the Secured Party to file all of the Secured Party’s financing statements and amendments to financing statement, and all terminations of the filings of other secured parties, all with respect to the Collateral, in such form and substance as the Secured Party, in its sole discretion, may determine.
4. COLLECTION RIGHTS. At any time after an Event of Default, the Secured Party may, and at the request of the Secured Party the Debtor shall, promptly notify any account debtor, issuer or obligor of an account, instrument, investment property, chattel paper, letter-of-credit right, letter of credit, other right to payment or general intangible constituting Collateral that the same has been assigned to the Secured Party and direct such account debtor, issuer or obligor to make all future payments to the Secured Party. In addition, at the request of the Secured Party, the Debtor shall deposit in a collateral account designated by the Secured Party all proceeds constituting Collateral, in their original form received (with any necessary endorsement), within one business day after receipt of such proceeds by the Debtor. Until the Debtor makes each such deposit, the Debtor will hold all such proceeds separately in trust for the Secured Party for deposit in such collateral account, and will not commingle any such proceeds with any other property. The Debtor shall have no right to withdraw any funds from such collateral account, and the Debtor shall have no control over such collateral account. Such collateral account and all funds at any time therein shall constitute Collateral under this Agreement. Before or upon final collection of any funds in such collateral account, the Secured Party, at its discretion, may release any such funds to the Debtor or any account of the Debtor or apply any such funds to the Obligations whether or not then due. Any release of funds to the Debtor or any account of the Debtor shall not prevent the Secured Party from subsequently applying any funds to the Obligations. All items credited to such collateral account and subsequently returned and all other costs, fees and charges of the Secured Party in connection with such collateral account may be charged by the Secured Party to any account of the Debtor, and the Debtor shall pay the Secured Party all such amounts on demand.
5. LIMITED POWER OF ATTORNEY. If the Debtor at any time fails to perform or observe any agreement herein, the Secured Party, in the name and on behalf of the Debtor or, at its option, in its own name, may perform or observe such agreement and take any action which the Secured Party may deem necessary or desirable to cure or correct such failure. The Debtor irrevocably authorizes Secured Party and grants the Secured Party a limited power of attorney in the name and on behalf of the Debtor or, at its option, in its own name, to collect, receive, receipt for, create, prepare, complete, execute, endorse, deliver and file any and all financing statements, control agreements, insurance applications, remittances, instruments, documents, chattel paper and other writings, to grant any extension to, compromise, settle, waive, notify, amend, adjust, change and release any obligation of any account debtor, issuer, obligor, insurer or other person or entity pertaining to any Collateral, to demand terminations of other security interests in any of the Collateral and to take any other action deemed by the Secured Party to be necessary or desirable to establish, perfect, protect or enforce the Security Interest. All of the Secured Party’s advances, fees, charges, costs and expenses, including but not limited to audit fees and expenses and reasonable attorneys’ fees and legal expenses, in connection with the Obligations and in the protection and exercise of any rights or remedies hereunder, together with interest thereon at the highest rate then applicable to any of the Obligations, shall be secured hereunder and shall be paid by the Debtor to the Secured Party on demand.

7. REMEDIES. Upon the commencement of any proceeding under any bankruptcy law by or against the Debtor or any such maker, endorser, guarantor, surety or other person or entity, all Obligations automatically shall become immediately due and payable in full, without declaration, presentment, or other notice or demand, all of which are hereby waived by the Debtor. In addition, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default and at any time thereafter, the Secured Party may exercise any one or more of the following rights and remedies: (a) declare all Obligations to be immediately due and payable in full, and the same shall thereupon be immediately due and payable in full, without presentment or other notice or demand, all of which are hereby waived by the Debtor; (b) require the Debtor to assemble all or any part of the Collateral and make it available to the Secured Party at a place to be designated by the Secured Party which is reasonably convenient to both parties; (c) exercise and enforce any and all rights and remedies available upon default under this Agreement, the Minnesota Uniform Commercial Code, as amended from time to time (the “UCC”), and any other applicable agreements and laws. If notice to the Debtor of any intended disposition of Collateral or other action is required, such notice shall be deemed reasonably and properly given if mailed by regular or certified mail, postage prepaid, to the Debtor at the address stated at the beginning of this Agreement or at the most recent address shown in the Secured Party’s records, at least 10 days prior to the action described in such notice. The Debtor consents to the personal jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in the State of Minnesota in connection with any controversy related to this Agreement, the Collateral, the Security Interest or any of the Obligations, waives any argument that venue in such forums is not convenient, and agrees that any litigation initiated by the Debtor against the Secured Party in connection with this Agreement, the Collateral, the Security Interest or any of the Obligations shall be venued in either the District Court of Hennepin County, Minnesota or the United States District Court, District of Minnesota, Fourth Division.
8. MISCELLANEOUS. All terms in this Agreement that are defined in the UCC shall have the meanings set forth in the UCC, and such meanings shall automatically change at the time that any amendment to the UCC, which changes such meanings, shall become effective. A carbon, photographic or other reproduction of this Agreement is sufficient as a financing statement. No provision of this Agreement can be waived, modified, amended, abridged, supplemented, terminated or discharged and the Security Interest cannot be released or terminated, except by a writing duly executed by the Secured Party. A waiver shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose given. No delay or failure to act shall preclude the exercise or enforcement of any of the Secured Party’s rights or remedies. All rights and remedies of the Secured Party shall be cumulative and may be exercised singularly, concurrently or successively at the Secured Party’s option, and the exercise or enforcement of any one such right or remedy shall not be a condition to or bar the exercise or enforcement of any other. No notice or other communication by the Debtor to the Secured Party, which relates to any of the Obligations, the Security Interest or the Collateral, shall be effective until it is received by the Secured Party at the Secured Party’s address above. This Agreement shall bind and benefit the Debtor and the Secured Party and their respective heirs, representatives, successors and assigns and shall take effect when executed by the Debtor and delivered to the Secured Party, and the Debtor waives notice of the Secured Party’s acceptance hereof. If any provision or application of this Agreement is held unlawful or unenforceable in any respect, such illegality or unenforceability shall not affect other provisions or applications which can be given effect, and this Agreement shall be construed as if the unlawful or unenforceable provision or application had never been contained herein or prescribed hereby. All representations and warranties contained in this Agreement shall survive the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the creation, payment and performance of the Obligations. This Agreement and the rights and duties of the parties shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Minnesota (excluding conflict of law rules).
