(e) The Lender shall have all of the rights and remedies provided to secured parties by the Uniform Commercial Code (UCC) and other applicable law.

(f) If Lender seeks to foreclose on the Collateral under this Agreement, Lender will first provide written notice to the other Lenders of its intention to do so, and all the Lenders shall share in any assets of the Company available to them on a pro rata basis, notwithstanding the order of filing of the UCC-1 financing statements with respect to the security interests.
