Section 10.2.          Other Breaches.

Any default shall have occurred (after giving effect to any applicable grace and/or cure periods) and be continuing under any agreement evidencing, securing or otherwise related to: (i) the Senior Debt, (ii) any Subordinated Seller Note or (iii) the occurrence of any event that would entitle the holder of such Indebtedness to accelerate the maturity thereof for any reason, in either case which would not otherwise constitute an Event of Default under this Agreement.

Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default under this Agreement, the Investor shall be entitled to exercise any or all of the rights and remedies set forth below, in addition to such other rights and remedies as may be provided for in the other Loan Documents or as may be available at law or in equity.


 


Section 11.1.          Acceleration. Following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default (except an Event of Default under 0 hereof resulting from an Act of Bankruptcy or an Act of Dissolution), the Investor may, at its option, accelerate the maturity of the Note and all other monetary obligations or Company Liabilities owed to the Investor and demand immediate payment in full of all amounts payable under the Note and all of the Company Liabilities owed to the Investor, including, without limitation, the Prepayment Premium, if applicable, without presentment, demand, protest, or further notice by the Investor to the Companies, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Companies.  Following the occurrence of an Event of Default under 0 hereof resulting from an Act of Bankruptcy or an Act of Dissolution, principal and interest outstanding under the Note and all other Company Liabilities owed to the Investor, including without limitation, the Prepayment Premium, shall become immediately due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or further notice by the Investor to the Companies, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Companies.


 


Section 11.2.          Post Default Interest. Following the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, the outstanding principal balance of the Note shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to four percent (4%) in excess of the interest rate then in effect, payable on demand to the Investor.


 


Section 11.3.          Costs. The Companies shall pay all reasonable expenses of any nature, whether incurred in or out of court, and whether incurred before or after the Note shall become due, at the Maturity Date or otherwise, (including without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs) which the Investor may deem necessary or proper in connection with the collection of any of the monetary obligations or liabilities or the administration, supervision, preservation, protection of (including without limitation, the maintenance of adequate insurance).

No failure or delay on the part of the Investor in the exercise of any power, right or privilege hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall impair such power, right or privilege or be construed to be a waiver of any default or acquiescence therein, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power, right or privilege preclude other or further exercise thereof or of any other power, right or privilege.


 


Section 11.5.          Waiver of Rights by the Companies. Except as may be otherwise specifically provided herein or in any other agreement between the Investor and the Companies which may be applicable, the Companies waive to the extent permitted by law, any bonds, security or sureties required by an statute, rule or otherwise by law as an incident to any taking of possession by the Investor of property subject to the Lien in favor of the Investor.

50











  






 


12.5.1.      Governing Law.  This Agreement and all questions relating to its validity, interpretation and performance shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, without regard to conflicts of laws principles.

 (a)            Each Company irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such Pennsylvania state court or, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, in such Federal court.


 


 (b)            Each Company irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document in any court referred to in paragraph (a) of this Section.  Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.  Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law.  Nothing in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document shall affect any right that the Investor may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any Company or its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction.


 


 (c)            Venue for the adjudication of any claim or dispute arising out of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents shall be proper only in the state or federal courts of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, and all parties to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents hereby consent to such venue and agree that it shall not be inconvenient and not subject to review by any court other than such courts in Pennsylvania.


 


 (d)            Each Company intends and agrees that the courts of the jurisdiction in which such Company is formed and in which it conducts its Business should afford full faith and credit to any judgment rendered by a court of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania against such Company under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and such Company intends and agrees that such courts should hold that the Pennsylvania courts have jurisdiction to enter a valid judgment against such Company.


 


 (e)            Each Company and the Investor agree that service of any summons and complaint, and other process which may be served in any suit, action or other proceeding, may be made by mailing via U.S. certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, or by hand-delivering a copy of such process to the Company or the Investor (as applicable) at its address specified above.


 


 (f)            The Company expressly acknowledges and agrees that the provisions of this section are reasonable and made for the express benefit of the Investor.


 




  





51











  






 


12.5.3.      Waiver of Trial by Jury.  Each party to this Agreement agrees that any suit, action or proceeding, whether claim, defense or counterclaim, brought or instituted by any party hereto or any successor or assign of any party on or with respect to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or which in any way relates, directly or indirectly, to the Note or any event, transaction or occurrence arising out of or in any way connected with this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or the dealings of the parties with respect thereto, shall be tried only by a court and not by a jury.  EACH PARTY HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING, AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THIS IS A WAIVER OF A LEGAL RIGHT AND THAT IT MAKES THIS WAIVER VOLUNTARILY AND KNOWINGLY AFTER CONSULTATION WITH, OR THE OPPORTUNITY TO CONSULT WITH, COUNSEL OF ITS CHOICE.


 


Section 12.6.          Prior Agreements. This Agreement supersedes any prior or contemporaneous understanding or agreement among the parties respecting the subject matter hereof.  There are no arrangements, understandings or agreements, oral or written, among the parties hereto relating to the subject matter of this Agreement, except those fully expressed herein or in documents executed contemporaneously herewith.  No change or modification of this Agreement shall be valid or binding upon the parties hereto unless such change or modification or waiver shall be in writing and signed by the parties hereto.


 


Section 12.7.          Counting of Days; Payments on Business Days. In computing the number of days for purposes of this Agreement, all days shall be counted, including Saturdays, Sundays and holidays; provided, however, that if the final day of any time period falls on a Saturday, Sunday or holiday, then the final day shall be deemed to be the next day which is a Business Day.  Whenever any payment hereunder or under the Note shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of the payment of interest fees, as the case may be; provided that if such extension would cause payment of any interest on or principal of the Subordinated Loan or payment of any fees to be made in the next following calendar month, such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day.


 


Section 12.8.          Captions. The captions used in this Agreement are for convenience only and shall not be construed in interpreting this Agreement.  Whenever the context so required, the neuter shall include the feminine and masculine, and the singular shall include the plural, and conversely.


 


Section 12.9.          Headings. All section headings herein are inserted for convenience of reference only and shall in no way modify or restrict any of the terms or provisions hereof.


 


Section 12.10.        Counterparts. This Agreement may be signed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original for all purposes, but all of which taken together shall constitute only one agreement.
