conditions for making an advance, Lender shall make the requested advance in the

States dollars as shall be sufficient to pay the reasonable enforcement costs
and expenses of such holder, including without limitation, attorney’s fees and
expenses, including, but not limited to, fees and expenses incurred on appeal in
each case only in the event Lender prevails in such actions or in the event the
holder takes actions to protect its interests hereunder in proceedings in
bankruptcy.

Loan Agreement shall alter or impair the obligation of Borrower, which is
