any place designated by Bank which is reasonably convenient to Bank and Debtor. 

  

	 	4.9	The following shall be the basis for any finder of fact’s determination of the value of any Borrower Collateral which is the subject matter of a disposition giving rise to a
calculation of any surplus or deficiency under Section 9.615 (f) of the Uniform Commercial Code (as in effect on or after July 1, 2001) to the extent permitted by applicable law: (a) the Borrower Collateral which is the subject
matter of the disposition shall be valued in an “as is” condition as of the date of the disposition, without any assumption or expectation that such Borrower Collateral will be repaired or improved in any manner,, (b) the valuation
shall be based upon an assumption that the transferee of such Borrower Collateral desires a resale of the Borrower Collateral for cash promptly (but no later than 30 days) following the disposition; (c) all reasonable closing costs customarily
borne by the seller in commercial sales transactions relating to property similar to such Borrower Collateral shall be deducted including, without limitation, brokerage commissions, tax prorations, attorneys’ fees, whether inside or outside
counsel is used, and marketing costs; (d) the value of the Borrower Collateral which is the subject matter of the disposition shall be further discounted to account for any estimated holding costs associated with maintaining such Borrower
Collateral pending sale (to the extent not accounted for in (c) above), and other maintenance, operational and ownership expenses; and (e) any expert opinion testimony given or considered in connection with a determination of the value of
such Borrower Collateral must be given by persons having at least 5 years experience in appraising property similar to the Borrower Collateral and who have conducted and prepared a complete written appraisal of such Borrower Collateral taking into
consideration the factors set forth above. The “value” of any such Borrower Collateral shall be a factor in determining the amount of proceeds which would have been realized in a disposition to a transferee other than a secured party, a
person related to a secured party or a secondary obligor under Section 9-615(f) of the Uniform Commercial Code. 

  

	5.	Miscellaneous.

	 	5.2	Debtor will give Bank not less than 30 days prior written notice of all contemplated changes in Debtors name, location, chief executive office, principal place of business, and/or
location of any Borrower Collateral, but the giving of this notice shall not cure any Event of Default caused by this change. 

  

	 	5.3	Bank assumes no duty of performance or other responsibility under any contracts contained within the Borrower Collateral. 

  

	 	5.4	Bank has the right to sell, assign, transfer, negotiate or grant participations or any interest in, any or all of the Indebtedness and any related obligations, including without
limit this Agreement In connection with the above, but without limiting its ability to make other disclosures to the full extent allowable, Bank may disclose all documents and information which Bank now or later has relating to Debtor, the

the terms, time and place of any public or private sale of personal property security held from Borrower or any other person, or otherwise comply with the provisions of Sections 9-611 or 9-621 of the Uniform Commercial Code; or (c) pursue any

compromise, extend, increase, accelerate, renew or forbear to enforce payment of any or all Indebtedness, or permit Borrower to incur additional Indebtedness, all without notice to Debtor and without affecting in any manner the unconditional
obligation of Debtor under this Agreement. Debtor unconditionally and irrevocably waives each and every defense and setoff of any nature which, under principles of guaranty or otherwise, would operate to impair or diminish in any way the obligation
of Debtor under this Agreement, and acknowledges that such waiver is by this reference incorporated into each security agreement, collateral assignment, pledge and/or other document from Debtor now or later securing the Indebtedness, and
acknowledges that as of the date of this Agreement no such defense or setoff exists. 

  

	 	5.7	Intentionally Omitted 

  

	 	5.8	In the event that applicable law shall obligate Bank to give prior notice to Debtor of any action to be taken under this Agreement, Debtor agrees that a written notice given to

to be made, unless a shorter notice period is reasonable under the circumstances. A notice shall be deemed to be given under this Agreement when delivered to Debtor or two days after being placed in an envelope addressed to Debtor and deposited,
with postage prepaid, in a post office or official depository under the exclusive care and custody of the United States Postal Service or delivered to an overnight courier. The mailing shall be by overnight courier, certified, or first class mail.

be reinstated in the event that any payment received or credit given by Bank in respect of the Indebtedness is returned, disgorged, or rescinded under any applicable law, including, without limitation, bankruptcy or insolvency laws, in which case
this Agreement, shall be enforceable against Debtor as if the returned, disgorged, or rescinded payment or credit had not been received or given by Bank, and whether or not Bank relied upon this payment or credit or changed its position as a
consequence of it. In the event of ‘continuation or reinstatement of this Agreement, Debtor agrees upon demand by Bank to execute and deliver to Bank those documents which Bank determines are appropriate to further evidence (in the public
records or otherwise) this continuation or reinstatement, although the failure of Debtor to do so shall not affect in any way the reinstatement or continuation. 

  

	 	5.10	This Agreement and all the rights and remedies of Bank under this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of Bank’s successors and assigns and to any other holder who derives from
Bank title to or an interest in the Indebtedness or any portion of it, and shall bind Debtor and the heirs, legal representatives, successors, and assigns of Debtor. Nothing in this Section 5.10 is deemed a consent by Bank to any assignment by
Debtor. 

  

	 	5.11	 If there is more than one Debtor, all undertakings, warranties and covenants made by Debtor and all rights, powers and authorities given to or conferred upon Bank
are made or given jointly and severally.
