(iv) foreclose or enforce any other agreement or other instrument by or under or pursuant to which the Obligations of any Company are issued or secured;
 
(v) subject to Section 5.2(b), sell, lease or otherwise dispose of any or all of the Collateral, in one or more transactions, at such prices as Secured Party may deem best, and for cash or on credit or for future delivery, without assumption of any credit risk, at any broker’s board or at public or private sale, without demand of performance or notice of intention to sell, lease or otherwise dispose of, or of time or place of disposition (except such notice as is required by applicable statute and cannot be waived), it being agreed that Secured Party may be purchasers or lessees on their own behalf at any such sale and that Secured Party or anyone else who may be the purchaser, lessee or recipient for value of any or all of the Collateral so disposed of shall, upon such disposition, acquire all of Company’s rights therein.  Secured Party may adjourn any public or private sale or cause the same to be adjourned from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed for the same, and such sale may, without further notice or publication, be made at any time or place to which the same may be so adjourned.  If Secured Party sells any of the Collateral upon credit, after reasonable inquiry as to the credit worthiness of the purchaser, Company will be credited only with payments actually made by the purchaser, received by Secured Party and applied to the indebtedness of the purchaser.  In the event the purchaser fails to pay for the Collateral, Secured Party may resell the Collateral and Company shall be credited with the proceeds of the sale;

(vi) incur expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, consultants’ fees, and other costs appropriate to the exercise of any right or power under this Agreement;
 
(vii) perform any obligation of Company hereunder and make payments, purchase, contest or compromise any encumbrance, charge, or lien, and pay taxes and expenses;
 
(viii) make any reasonable compromise or settlement deemed desirable with respect to any or all of the Collateral and extend the time of payment, arrange for payment installments, or otherwise modify the terms of, any or all of the Collateral;
 
(ix) secure the appointment of a receiver of any or all of the Collateral;
 
(x) exercise any other or additional rights or remedies granted to Secured Party under any other provision of this Agreement or exercisable by a secured party under the UCC, whether or not the UCC applies to the affected Collateral, or under any other applicable law and take any other action which Secured Party deem necessary or desirable to protect or realize upon their security interests in the Collateral or any part thereof; and/or
 
(xi) appoint a third party (who may be an employee, officer or other representative of Secured Party) to do any of the foregoing, or take any other action permitted hereunder, on behalf of  Secured Party.
 
(b)          If, pursuant to any law, prior notice of any action described in Section 5.2(a) is required to be given to Company, Company hereby acknowledges that the minimum time required by such law, or if no minimum is specified, ten days, shall be deemed a reasonable notice period.
 
(c)          Any action or proceeding to enforce this Agreement may be taken by Secured Party either in a Company’s name or in Secured Party’s name, as Secured Party may deem necessary.
 
i.  
All rights of marshalling of assets of Company, including any such right with respect to the Collateral, are hereby waived by Company.
 
ii.  
Secured Party shall incur no liability as a result of the sale of any or all of the Collateral at any private sale pursuant to Section 5.2(a) conducted in a commercially reasonable manner.  Company hereby waives any claims against Secured Party arising by reason of the fact that the price at which any or all of the Collateral may have been sold at such a private sale was less than the price that might have obtained at a public sale or was less than the aggregate amount of the Obligations, even if Secured Party accepts the first offer received and does not offer the Collateral to more than one offeree.
 
5.3           ATTORNEY-IN-FACT.  Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, the Company hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints Secured Party as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact to enforce all rights of such Company with respect to the Collateral, including the right to give appropriate receipts, releases and satisfactions for and on behalf of and in the name of the Company or, at the option of Secured Party, in the name of Secured Party, with the same force and effect as the Company could do if this Agreement had not been made.  If Secured Party shall so elect after the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default hereunder, Secured Party shall have the right at all times to settle, compromise, adjust, or liquidate all claims or disputes directly with the Company or any obligor of the Company upon such terms and conditions as Secured Party may determine in its sole discretion, and to charge all costs and expenses thereof (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and charges) to the Company’s account and to add them to the Obligations whereupon such costs and expenses shall be and become part of the Obligations.  This power of attorney is a power coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable.
 
4

 
 
5.4           EXPENSES; INTEREST.  All costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred by Secured Party in connection with exercising any actions taken under Article 5, together with interest thereon (to the extent permitted by law) computed at a rate of 10% per annum (or if less, the maximum rate permitted by law) from the date on which such costs or expenses are invoiced to and become payable by Company, to the date of payment thereof, shall constitute part of the Obligations secured by this Agreement and shall be paid by Company to Secured Party within 10 days after written demand.
 
5.5           NO IMPAIRMENT OF REMEDIES.  If under applicable law, Secured Party proceeds by either judicial foreclosure or by non-judicial sale or enforcement, Secured Party may, at its sole option, determine which of its remedies or rights to pursue without affecting any of its respective rights and remedies under this Agreement.  If, by exercising any right and remedy, Secured Party forfeits any of its other rights or remedies, including any right to enter a deficiency judgment against Company or any third party (whether because of any applicable law pertaining to “election of remedies” or the like), Company nevertheless hereby consents to such action by Secured Party.  To the extent permitted by applicable law, Company also waives any claim based upon such action, even if such action by Secured Party results in a full or partial loss of any rights of subrogation, indemnification or reimbursement which Company might otherwise have had but for such action by Secured Party or the terms herein.  Any election of remedies which results in the denial or impairment of the right of Secured Party to seek a deficiency judgment against any third party shall not, to the extent permitted by applicable law, impair Company’s obligations hereunder.  If Secured Party bids at any foreclosure or trustee’s sale or at any private sale permitted by law or this Agreement, Secured Party may bid all or less than the amount of the Obligations.  To the extent permitted by applicable law, the amount of the successful bid at any such sale, whether Secured Party or any other party is the successful bidder, shall be conclusively deemed to be the fair market value of the Collateral and any deficiency between such bid amount and the remaining balance of the Obligations shall be conclusively deemed to be the amount of the Obligations.
