However, no notice need be provided to any Person who, after an Event of Default occurs, enters into and authenticates an agreement waiving that person's right to notification of sale. The requirements of reasonable notice shall be met if such notice is given at least 10 calendar days before the time of the sale or disposition.

 

(viii) Holder may have a receiver appointed to take possession of all or any part of the Collateral, with the power to protect and preserve the Collateral, to operate the Collateral preceding foreclosure or sale, and to collect the rents from the Collateral and apply the proceeds, over and above the cost of the receivership, against the Secured Obligations. The receiver may serve without bond if permitted by law. Holder's right to the appointment of a receiver shall exist whether or not the apparent value of the Collateral exceeds the Secured Obligations by a substantial amount. Employment by Holder shall not disqualify a person from serving as a receiver.

 

(ix) Holder may collect the payments, rents, income, and revenues from the Collateral.

To facilitate collections, Holder may notify account debtors and obligors on any Collateral to make payments directly to Holder.

 

(x) If Holder chooses to sell any or all of the Collateral, Holder may obtain a judgment against Company for any deficiency remaining on the Secured Obligations due to Holder after application of all amounts received from the exercise of the rights provided in this Agreement.

The Company agrees that such notice constitutes "reasonable notification" within the meaning of Section 9-610(b) of the UCC.
