Event of Default described in Section 8 occurs all Obligations are immediately
due and payable without any action by Bank);
(b) Stop advancing money or extending credit for Borrower's benefit
under this Exim Agreement or under any other agreement between Borrower and
Bank;
(c) Settle or adjust disputes and claims directly with account debtors
for amounts, on terms and in any order that Bank considers advisable;
(d) Make any payments and do any acts it considers necessary or
reasonable to protect its security interest in the Collateral. Borrower will
assemble the Collateral if Bank requires and make it available as Bank
designates. Bank may enter premises where the Collateral is located, take and
maintain possession of any part of the Collateral, and pay, purchase, contest,
or compromise any Lien which appears to be prior or superior to its security
interest and pay all expenses incurred. Borrower grants Bank a license to enter
and occupy any of its premises, without charge, to exercise any of Bank's rights
or remedies;
(e) Apply to the Obligations any (i) balances and deposits of Borrower
it holds, or (ii) any amount held by Bank owing to or for the credit or the
account of Borrower;
(f) Ship, reclaim, recover, store, finish, maintain, repair, prepare
for sale, advertise for sale, and sell the Collateral; and
(g) Dispose of the Collateral according to the Code.
9.2 POWER OF ATTORNEY.
Effective only when an Event of Default occurs and continues, Borrower
irrevocably appoints Bank as its lawful attorney to: (i) endorse Borrower's name
on any checks or other forms of payment or security; (ii) sign Borrower's name
on any invoice or bill of lading for any Account or drafts against account
debtors, (iii) make, settle, and adjust all claims under Borrower's insurance
policies; (iv) settle and adjust disputes and claims about the Accounts directly
with account debtors, for amounts and on
8
terms Bank determines reasonable; and (v) transfer the Collateral into the
name of Bank or a third party as the Code permits. Bank may exercise the
power of attorney to sign Borrower's name on any documents necessary to
perfect or continue the perfection of any security interest regardless of
whether an Event of Default has occurred. Bank's appointment as Borrower's
attorney in fact, and all of Bank's rights and powers, coupled with an
interest, are irrevocable until all Obligations have been fully repaid and
performed and Bank's obligation to provide Advances terminates.
9.3 ACCOUNTS COLLECTION.
When an Event of Default occurs and continues, Bank may notify any
Person owing Borrower money of Bank's security interest in the funds and verify
the amount of the Account. Borrower must collect all payments in trust for Bank
and, if requested by Bank, immediately deliver the payments to Bank in the form
received from the account debtor, with proper endorsements for deposit.
9.4 BANK EXPENSES.
If Borrower fails to pay any amount or furnish any required proof of
payment to third persons Bank may make all or part of the payment or obtain
insurance policies required in Section 6.5, and take any action under the
policies Bank deems prudent. Any amounts paid by Bank are Bank Expenses and
immediately due and payable, bearing interest at the then applicable rate and
secured by the Collateral. No payments by Bank are deemed an agreement to make
similar payments in the future or Bank's waiver of any Event of Default.
9.5 BANK'S LIABILITY FOR COLLATERAL.
If Bank complies with reasonable banking practices it is not liable
for: (a) the safekeeping of the Collateral; (b) any loss or damage to the
Collateral; (c) any diminution in the value of the Collateral; or (d) any act or
default of any carrier, warehouseman, bailee, or other person. Borrower bears
all risk of loss, damage or destruction of the Collateral.
9.6 REMEDIES CUMULATIVE.
Bank's rights and remedies under this Exim Agreement, the Loan
Documents, and all other agreements are cumulative. Bank has all rights and
remedies provided under the Code, by law, or in equity. Bank's exercise of one
right or remedy is not an election, and Bank's waiver of any Event of Default is
not a continuing waiver. Bank's delay is not a waiver, election, or
acquiescence. No waiver is effective unless signed by Bank and then is only
effective for the specific instance and purpose for which it was given.
9.7 DEMAND WAIVER.
Borrower waives demand, notice of default or dishonor, notice of
payment and nonpayment, notice of any default, nonpayment at maturity, release,
compromise, settlement, extension, or renewal of accounts, documents,
instruments, chattel paper, and guarantees held by Bank on which Borrower is
liable.
9.8 EXIM DIRECTION.
Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Exim Bank shall have right
to (i) direct Bank to exercise the remedies specified in Section 9.1 and (ii)
request that Bank accelerate the maturity of any other loans to Borrower.
9.9 EXIM NOTIFICATION.
Bank has the right to immediately notify Exim Bank in writing if it has
knowledge of any of the following events: (1) any failure to pay any amount due
under this Exim Agreement; (2) the Borrowing
9
Base is less than the sum of the outstanding Credit Extensions; (3) any
failure to pay when due any amount payable to Bank under any Loan owing by
Borrower to Bank; (4) the filing of an action for debtor's relief by, against
or on behalf of Borrower; (5) any threatened or pending material litigation
against Borrower, or any dispute involving Borrower.
If Bank sends a notice to Exim Bank, Bank has the right to send Exim
Bank a written report on the status of events covered by the notice every 30
days after the date of the original notification, until Bank files a claim with
Exim Bank or the defaults have been cured (but no Credit Extensions may be
required during the cure period unless Exim Bank gives its written approval). If
directed by Exim Bank, Bank will have the right to exercise any rights it may
have against the Borrower to demand the immediate repayment of all amounts
outstanding under the Exim Loan Documents.

other related agreement must be in writing and be personally delivered or sent
