No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies.  No failure on the part of the Secured\nParty to exercise and no delay in exercising, and no course of dealing with\nrespect to, any right, power, or privilege under this Agreement shall operate as\na waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power,\nor privilege under this Agreement preclude any other or further exercise thereof\nor the exercise of any other right, power, or privilege.
