6.1 Dispositions. Convey, sell, lease, license, transfer or otherwise Dispose of all or any part of the Collateral except as permitted under the Security Agreement.
6.2 Encumbrances.

Become or be controlled by an “investment company,” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, or become principally engaged in, or undertake as one of its important activities, the business of extending credit for the purpose of purchasing or carrying margin stock, or use the proceeds of any Advance for such purpose.
7. EVENTS OF DEFAULT.
Any one or more of the following events shall constitute an Event of Default by Borrower under this Agreement:
7.1 Payment Default. If Borrower fails to pay any of the Obligations on the date such Obligations become due and such failure continues for five (5) days after Lender delivers written notice to Borrower;
7.2 Covenant Default. If Borrower fails to timely perform or observe any obligation, term, provision, condition, covenant contained in this Agreement, in any of the Loan Documents, or in any other present or future agreement between Borrower and Lender and such failure continues for thirty (30) days after Lender delivers written notice to Borrower;
7.3 Misrepresentations. If any intentional or willful misrepresentation or material misstatement exists now or hereafter in any warranty or representation set forth in any Loan Document or in any certificate, Advance Form, financial statements or reports delivered to Lender pursuant to this Agreement and such failure continues for ten (10) days after Borrower becomes aware of such failure, provided, however, that no Event of Default shall be deemed to occur with respect to any misrepresentation or misstatement with respect to any facts or circumstances to the extent existing immediately prior to the date hereof;
7.4 Perfection. If the security interest of Lender in the Collateral shall cease to be a perfected security interest with priority over all other Liens except for Permitted Liens;
7.5 Material Adverse Effect. If there shall have occurred a Material Adverse Effect;
7.6 Attachment. If all or a material portion of Borrower’s assets are attached, seized, subjected to a writ or distress warrant, or are levied upon, or come into the possession of any trustee, receiver or person acting in a similar capacity, or if Borrower is enjoined, restrained, or in any way prevented by court order from continuing to conduct all or any material part of its business affairs, or if a judgment or other claim becomes a lien or encumbrance upon any material portion of Borrower’s assets, or if a notice of lien, levy, or assessment is filed of record with respect to any of Borrower’s assets by the United States Government, or any department, agency, or instrumentality thereof, or by any state, county, municipal, or governmental agency, and the same is not paid within ten (10) days after Borrower receives notice thereof, provided that none of the foregoing shall constitute an Event of Default where such action or event is stayed or an adequate bond has been posted pending a good faith contest by Borrower (provided that no Advances will be made during such cure period);

(702) 669-4600

7.12 Cross Default. If Borrower shall be in breach or default of the Procurement Agreement beyond any applicable cure period; or

8. Lender’S RIGHTS AND REMEDIES.
8.1 Rights and Remedies. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Lender may, at its election, without notice of its election and without demand, do any one or more of the following, all of which are authorized by Borrower:
17
Holland & Hart LLP
Las Vegas, NV
(702) 669-4600
(a) Declare all Obligations, whether evidenced by this Agreement, by any of the other Loan Documents, or otherwise, immediately due and payable (provided that upon the occurrence of an Event of Default described in Section 7.7, all Obligations shall become immediately due and payable without any action by Lender);
(b) Cease making any Advances or otherwise extending credit to or for the benefit of Borrower under this Agreement or under any other agreement between Borrower and Lender;
(c) Lender may declare a default under all other Loan Documents, and Lender may proceed with every remedy available at law or in equity or provided for herein or in any other Loan Document, and all expenses incurred by Lender (including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements) in connection with any remedy shall be deemed Obligations of Borrower to Lender and a part of the Obligations owed by Borrower to Lender hereunder; and
(d) Lender may apply the proceeds from any Collateral or from any other source against Obligations owed by Borrower to Lender hereunder as and in any order it sees fit.
8.2 Lender Expenses. If Borrower fails to pay any amounts as required under the terms of this Agreement beyond any applicable grace period, then Lender may do any or all of the following after reasonable notice to Borrower: (a) make payment of the same or any part thereof; (b) set up such reserves under the Loan as Lender deems reasonably necessary to protect Lender from the exposure created by such failure; or (c) obtain and maintain insurance policies of the type discussed in Section 5.6 of this Agreement, and take any action with respect to such policies as Lender deems prudent. Any amounts so paid or deposited by Lender shall constitute Lender Expenses, shall be immediately due and payable, and shall bear interest at the then applicable rate hereinabove provided, and shall be secured by the Collateral. Any payments made by Lender shall not constitute an agreement by Lender to make similar payments in the future or a waiver by Lender of any Event of Default under this Agreement.
8.3 No Obligation to Pursue Others. Lender has no obligation to attempt to satisfy the Obligations by collecting them from any other person liable for them and Lender may release, modify or waive any collateral provided by any other Person to secure any of the Obligations, all without affecting Lender’s rights against Borrower. Borrower waives any right it may have to require Lender to pursue any other Person for any of the Obligations.
8.4 Remedies Cumulative; No Waiver. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement and to the extent permitted by applicable law, all remedies of Lender provided for herein are cumulative and shall be in addition to any and all other rights and remedies provided in the Note, the Security Agreement, or any of the other Loan Documents or by law. No exercise by Lender of one right or remedy shall be deemed an election, and no waiver by Lender of any Event of Default on Borrower’s part shall be deemed a continuing waiver. No delay by Lender shall constitute a waiver, election, or acquiescence by it. No waiver by Lender shall be effective unless made in a written document signed on behalf of Lender and then shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which it was given. Borrower expressly agrees that this Section 8.4 may not be waived or modified by Lender by course of performance, conduct, estoppel or otherwise.

11. GENERAL PROVISIONS.
11.1 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of the respective successors and permitted assigns of each of the parties; provided, however, that neither this Agreement nor any rights hereunder may be assigned by Borrower without Lender’s prior written consent, which consent may be granted or withheld in Lender’s sole discretion. Lender shall have the right without the consent of Borrower to sell, transfer, negotiate, or grant participation in all or any part of, or any interest in, Lender’s obligations, rights and benefits hereunder; and Lender shall give written notice to Borrower of any such event.
11.2 Indemnification. Borrower shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless Lender and its officers, employees, and agents against: (a) all obligations, demands, claims, and liabilities claimed or asserted by any other party in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents except for losses caused by Lender’s gross negligence or willful misconduct and (b) all losses or Lender Expenses in any way suffered, incurred, or paid by Lender, its officers, employees and agents as a result of or in any way arising out of, the transactions between Lender and Borrower under the Loan Documents (including without limitation reasonable attorneys fees and expenses) except for losses caused by Lender’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.

A facsimile signature to this Agreement shall be deemed an original and binding upon the party against whom enforcement is sought.
11.7 Survival. All covenants, representations and warranties made in this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect so long as any Obligations remain outstanding or Lender has any obligation to make any Advance to Borrower. The obligations of Borrower to indemnify Lender with respect to the expenses, damages, losses, costs and liabilities described in Section 11.2 shall survive until all applicable statute of limitations periods with respect to actions that may be brought against Lender have run.
11.8 Waivers. No course of dealing on the part of Lender, or the officers, employees, consultants or agents thereof, nor any failure or delay by Lender with respect to exercising any right, remedy, power or privilege under any Loan Document or at law or in equity shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall a single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. No waiver or consent shall be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by Lender, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given. No notice to or demand on Borrower in any case shall entitle Borrower to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.
