4.           UCC. Notwithstanding any provisions hereof or execution by Lender, this Amendment (and all documents executed in connection herewith) shall be voidable at the option of Lender should any lien searches or other confirmatory title information regarding the Collateral (to be provided at the expense of Borrower) reflect any default under the Loan or creation of any adverse claim or interest regarding the Collateral. In addition, Borrower authorizes Lender to file any and all initial, amendatory or continuation Uniform Commercial Code filings deemed necessary by Lender.

12.        Security Interest. Lender and Borrower agree this Agreement creates a valid presently conveyed security interest in favor of Lender in the Collateral, there being no agreement to delay attachment of such security interest. Control by Lender of the Collateral is in accordance with Ark. Code Ann. § 4-9-104, and such control shall perfect and establish the first priority of Lender’s security interest hereunder in the Collateral pursuant to Ark. Code Ann. § 4-9-314, subject to no other liens, security interests, and encumbrances. All rights of Lender, all security interests and all Obligations of Borrower hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional irrespective of: (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of the Loan Agreement, any guaranty or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto; (ii) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term in respect of, all or any of the Obligations or any other amendment or waiver of or consent to any departure from this Agreement, the Loan Agreement, any guaranty or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto; (iii) any increase in, addition to, or exchange, release or non-perfection of any other collateral, or any release or amendment or waiver of or consent to departure from any guaranty for all or any of the Obligations; (iv) any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, Borrower in respect of the Obligations or this Agreement; or (v) the absence of any action on the part of Lender to obtain payment or performance of the Obligations from Borrower or any other party.

13.        Miscellaneous.

(a)          No amendment of any provision of this Agreement shall be effective unless it is in writing and signed by Borrower and Lender, and no waiver of any provision of this Agreement, and no consent to any departure by Borrower therefrom, shall be effective unless it is in writing and signed by Lender, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given.

(b)          No failure on the part of Lender to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right hereunder or under any other instrument or document shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. The rights and remedies of Lender provided herein and in the other instruments and documents are cumulative and are in addition to, and not exclusive of, any rights or remedies provided by law. The rights of Lender under the Loan Agreement, any guaranty, any other instrument which now or hereafter evidences or secures all or part of the Obligations, or any related document against any party thereto are not conditional or contingent on any attempt by Lender to exercise any of their rights under any other such instrument or document against such party or against any other party.

(c)          Any provision of this Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity without invalidating the remaining portions hereof or thereof or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.

(d)          This Agreement shall create a continuing security interest in the Collateral and shall: (i) remain in full force and effect until the earlier of the disbursement of all funds from the Account and the termination of the duties and obligations of Borrower under the Loan Agreement, including the payment in full of the obligations; (ii) be binding on Borrower and Borrower’s successors and permitted assigns and shall inure, together with all rights and remedies of Lender hereunder, to the benefit of Lender and its successors, transferees and assigns. None of the rights or obligations of Borrower hereunder may be assigned or otherwise transferred without the prior written consent of Lender.

(e)          This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Arkansas as preempted by applicable federal laws, without giving effect to conflict or choice of law principles. The provisions of this Section 13(e) shall control all other provisions hereof and of all agreements, whether now or hereafter existing and whether written or oral, between Borrower and Lender or any other person liable for the indebtedness secured hereby.

(g)          The captions or headings of the Sections of this Agreement are inserted merely for convenience of reference and shall not be deemed to limit or modify the terms and provisions hereof.
