3. Commercial Tort Claims. If Grantor shall at any time hold or acquire a commercial tort claim, Grantor shall immediately notify Secured Party in writing of the brief details thereof and grant to Secured Party in writing a security interest therein and in the proceeds thereof, all upon the terms of this Agreement, with such writing to be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Secured Party;

To the extent permitted by law, Grantor hereby ratifies all that such attorney-in-fact shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof. This power of attorney is coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable until this Agreement is terminated.

10. Secured Party May Perform. If Grantor fails to perform any agreement contained herein, Secured Party may itself perform, or cause performance of, such agreement, and the reasonable expenses of Secured Party incurred in connection therewith shall be payable by Grantor.
11. Secured Party's Duties. The powers conferred on Secured Party hereunder are solely to protect Secured Party's interest in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon Secured Party to exercise any such powers. Except for the safe custody of any Collateral in its actual possession and the accounting for moneys actually received by it hereunder, Secured Party

shall have no duty as to any Collateral or as to the taking of any necessary steps to preserve rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining to any Collateral.

Grantor agrees that, to the extent notice of sale shall be required by law, at least 10 days notice to Grantor of the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale is to be made shall constitute reasonable notification and specifically such notice shall constitute a reasonable "authenticated notification of disposition" within the meaning of Section 9-611 of the Code. Secured Party shall not be obligated to make any sale of Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been given. Secured Party may adjourn any public or private sale from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed therefor, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which it was so adjourned.

Any cash held by Secured Party as Collateral and all cash proceeds received by Secured Party in respect of any sale of, collection from, or other realization upon all or any part of the Collateral in accordance with its exercise of remedies hereunder shall be applied against the Secured Obligations in the order set forth in the Note. In the event the proceeds of Collateral are insufficient to satisfy all of the Secured Obligations in full, Grantor shall remain liable for any such deficiency.

This Agreement constitutes (along with the other Loan Documents) a complete and exclusive statement of the terms of the agreement between the parties with respect to its subject matter. Except as otherwise set forth herein, the rights and remedies of the parties to this Agreement are cumulative and not alternative. Neither

the failure nor delay by any party in exercising any right, power or privilege under this Agreement or the documents referred to in this Agreement shall operate as a waiver of such right, power or privilege, and no single or partial exercise of any such right, power or privilege shall preclude any other or further exercise of such right, power or privilege or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege.
