otherwise or from any other source whatsoever), including all securities, guaranties, warranties,
indemnity agreements, insurance policies, supporting obligations and other agreements pertaining to
the same or the property described therein, and in all goods returned by or repossessed from
Debtor’s customers, together with whatever is receivable or received when any of the Collateral or
proceeds thereof are sold, collected, exchanged or otherwise disposed of, whether such disposition
is voluntary or involuntary, including without limitation, all rights to payment, including
returned premiums, with respect to any insurance relating to any of the foregoing, and all rights
to payment with respect to any claim or cause of action affecting or relating to any of the
foregoing (hereinafter called “Proceeds”).

8. PAYMENT OF PREMIUMS, TAXES, CHARGES, LIENS AND ASSESSMENTS. Debtor agrees to pay, prior to
delinquency, all insurance premiums, taxes, charges, liens and assessments against the Collateral
and Proceeds, and upon the failure of Debtor to do so, Bank at its option may pay any of them and
shall be the sole judge of the legality or validity thereof and the amount necessary to discharge
the same. Any such payments made by Bank shall be obligations of Debtor to Bank, due and payable
immediately upon demand, together with interest at a rate determined in accordance with the
provisions of this Agreement, and shall be secured by the Collateral and Proceeds, subject to all
terms and conditions of this Agreement.


 


 









 





9. EVENTS OF DEFAULT. The occurrence of any of the following shall constitute an “Event of
Default” under this Agreement: (a) any default in the payment or performance of any obligation, or
any defined event of default, under (i) any contract or instrument evidencing any Indebtedness, or
(ii) any other agreement between Debtor and Bank, including without limitation any loan agreement,
relating to or executed in connection with any Indebtedness; (b) any representation or warranty
made by Debtor herein shall prove to be incorrect, false or misleading in any material respect when
made; (c) Debtor shall fail to observe or perform any obligation or agreement contained herein; (d)
any impairment of the rights of Bank in any Collateral or Proceeds, or any attachment or like levy
on any property of Debtor; and (e) Bank, in good faith, believes any or all of the Collateral
and/or Proceeds to be in danger of misuse, dissipation, commingling, loss, theft, damage or
destruction, or otherwise in jeopardy or unsatisfactory in character or value.



10. REMEDIES. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, Bank shall have the right to
declare immediately due and payable all or any Indebtedness secured hereby and to terminate any
commitments to make loans or otherwise extend credit to Debtor. Bank shall have all other rights,
powers, privileges and remedies granted to a secured party upon default under the Colorado Uniform
Commercial Code or otherwise provided by law, including without limitation, the right (a) to
contact all persons obligated to Debtor on any Collateral or Proceeds and to instruct such persons
to deliver all Collateral and/or Proceeds directly to Bank, and (b) to sell, lease, license or
otherwise dispose of any or all Collateral. All rights, powers, privileges and remedies of Bank
shall be cumulative. No delay, failure or discontinuance of Bank in exercising any right, power,
privilege or remedy hereunder shall affect or operate as a waiver of such right, power, privilege
or remedy; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power, privilege or remedy
preclude, waive or otherwise affect any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any
other right, power, privilege or remedy. Any waiver, permit, consent or approval of any kind by
Bank of any default hereunder, or any such waiver of any provisions or conditions hereof, must be
in writing and shall be effective only to the extent set forth in writing. It is agreed that
public or private sales or other dispositions, for cash or on credit, to a wholesaler or retailer
or investor, or user of property of the types subject to this Agreement, or public auctions, are
all commercially reasonable since differences in the prices generally realized in the different
kinds of dispositions are ordinarily offset by the differences in the costs and credit risks of
such dispositions. While an Event of Default exists: (a) Debtor will deliver to Bank from time to
time, as requested by Bank, current lists of all Collateral and Proceeds; (b) Debtor will not
dispose of any Collateral or Proceeds except on terms approved by Bank; and (c) at Bank’s request,
Debtor will assemble and deliver all Collateral and Proceeds, and books and records pertaining
thereto, to Bank at a reasonably convenient place designated by Bank.



11. DISPOSITION OF COLLATERAL AND PROCEEDS; TRANSFER OF INDEBTEDNESS. In disposing of
Collateral hereunder, Bank may disclaim all warranties of title, possession, quiet enjoyment and
the like. Any proceeds of any disposition of any of the Collateral or Proceeds, or any part
thereof, may be applied by Bank to the payment of expenses incurred by Bank in connection with the
foregoing, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, and the balance of such proceeds may be applied by
Bank toward the payment of the Indebtedness in such order of application as Bank may from time to
time elect. Upon the transfer of all or any part of the Indebtedness, Bank may transfer all or any
part of the Collateral or Proceeds and shall be fully discharged thereafter from all liability and
responsibility with respect to any of the foregoing so transferred, and the transferee shall be
vested with all rights and powers of Bank hereunder with respect to any of the foregoing so
transferred; but with respect to any Collateral or Proceeds not so transferred, Bank shall retain
all rights, powers, privileges and remedies herein given.


 


 









 





12. STATUTE OF LIMITATIONS. Until all Indebtedness shall have been paid in full and all
commitments by Bank to extend credit to Debtor have been terminated, the power of sale or other
disposition and all other rights, powers, privileges and remedies granted to Bank hereunder shall
continue to exist and may be exercised by Bank at any time and from time to time irrespective of
the fact that the Indebtedness or any part thereof may have become barred by any statute of
limitations, or that the personal liability of Debtor may have ceased, unless such liability shall
have ceased due to the payment in full of all Indebtedness secured hereunder.



13. MISCELLANEOUS. When there is more than one Debtor named herein: (a) the word “Debtor”
shall mean all or any one or more of them as the context requires; (b) the obligations of each
Debtor hereunder are joint and several; and (c) until all Indebtedness shall have been paid in
full, no Debtor shall have any right of subrogation or contribution, and each Debtor hereby waives
any benefit of or right to participate in any of the Collateral or Proceeds or any other security
now or hereafter held by Bank. Debtor hereby waives any right to require Bank to (i) proceed
against Debtor or any other person, (ii) marshal assets or proceed against or exhaust any security
from Debtor or any other person, (iii) perform any obligation of Debtor with respect to any
Collateral or Proceeds, and (d) make any presentment or demand, or give any notice of nonpayment or
nonperformance, protest, notice of protest or notice of dishonor hereunder or in connection with
any Collateral or Proceeds. Debtor further waives any right to direct the application of payments
or security for any Indebtedness of Debtor or indebtedness of customers of Debtor.



14. NOTICES. All notices, requests and demands required under this Agreement must be in
writing, addressed to Bank at the address specified in any other loan documents entered into
between Debtor and Bank and to Debtor at the address of its chief executive office (or principal
residence, if applicable) specified below or to such other address as any party may designate by
written notice to each other party, and shall be deemed to have been given or made as follows: (a)
if personally delivered, upon delivery; (b) if sent by mail, upon the earlier of the date of
receipt or three (3) days after deposit in the U.S. mail, first class and postage prepaid; and (c)
if sent by telecopy, upon receipt.



15. COSTS, EXPENSES AND ATTORNEYS’ FEES. Debtor shall pay to Bank immediately upon demand the
full amount of all payments, advances, charges, costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’
fees (to include outside counsel fees and all allocated costs of Bank’s in-house counsel), expended
or incurred by Bank in connection with (a) the perfection and preservation of the Collateral or
Bank’s interest therein, and (b) the realization, enforcement and exercise of any right, power,
privilege or remedy conferred by this Agreement, whether incurred at the trial or appellate level,
in an arbitration proceeding or otherwise, and including any of the foregoing incurred in
connection with any bankruptcy proceeding (including without limitation, any adversary proceeding,
contested matter or motion brought by Bank or any other person) relating to Debtor or in any way
affecting any of the Collateral or Bank’s ability to exercise any of its rights or remedies with
respect thereto. All of the foregoing shall be paid by Debtor with interest from the date of
demand until paid in full at a rate per annum equal to the greater of ten percent (10%) or Bank’s
Prime Rate in effect from time to time.


 


 









 





16. SUCCESSORS; ASSIGNS; AMENDMENT. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the
benefit of the heirs, executors, administrators, legal representatives, successors and assigns of
the parties, and may be amended or modified only in writing signed by Bank and Debtor.



17. SEVERABILITY OF PROVISIONS. If any provision of this Agreement shall be held to be
prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective only to the
extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or
any remaining provisions of this Agreement.



18. GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the
laws of the State of Colorado.
