7. RIGHTS AND REMEDIES:
-------------------
(a) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default hereunder, Secured Party
may, without further notice or demand, declare any of the Obligations
immediately due and payable and this Security Agreement in default, and
thereafter, Secured Party shall have the remedies of a secured party under the
Uniform Commercial Code as then in effect in the State and all other rights and
remedies at law or in equity available to secured creditors in the State,
including, without limitation, the right to take possession of the Collateral
and any proceeds thereof. To take possession, Secured Party may enter upon any
premises where the Collateral is kept and remove the Collateral or any proceeds
therefrom to the extent permitted by applicable law. If notice is required by
law, ten (10) days' prior written notice given to Debtor (pursuant to the notice
provisions contained in the Deed of Trust) of the time and place of any public
sale of the Collateral or of the time of or after which any private sale or any
other intended disposition of the Collateral is to be made shall be deemed to be
reasonable notice to Debtor. No such notice shall be necessary if the
Collateral is perishable, threatens to decline speedily in value or is of a type
customarily sold on a recognized market. Proceeds of any sale or other
disposition of the Collateral may be applied to the Obligations in whatever
order or priority Secured Party may subjectively determine.
(b) During the time that Secured Party is in possession of the Collateral,
and to the extent permitted by law, Secured Party shall have the right to hold,
use, operate, manage and control all or any part of the Collateral, to make all
such repairs, replacements, alterations and improvements of the Collateral it
deems proper, and to demand, collect and retain all earnings, proceeds and other
sums due or to become due with respect to the Collateral, accounting only for
the net earnings arising from such use and charging against receipts from such
use all costs, expenses, charges, damage or loss by reason of such use.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Secured Party shall be entitled also, without
further notice or demand and to the extent permitted by law, to have a receiver
appointed to take charge of all or any part of the Collateral, exercising all of
the rights specified in the immediately preceding sentence.
(c) Debtor shall pay to Secured Party on demand all reasonable expenses
(including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees, costs and
disbursements) actually incurred by Secured Party incidental to taking, holding,
preparing for sale, selling and the like or otherwise dealing with the
Collateral, or actually incurred by Secured Party otherwise in enforcing any
term or condition of this Security Agreement or any other Loan Document,
together with interest thereon at the Default Interest Rate (as defined in the
Note), and all such expenses and interest
7
shall be secured by the Collateral as provided herein and by all of the other
Loan Documents securing all or any part of the indebtedness evidenced by the
Note.
(d) Secured Party may require Debtor to assemble the Collateral and make
it available at a place Secured Party designates which is mutually convenient to
allow Secured Party to take possession or dispose of the Collateral.
(e) Any and all statements of fact or other recitals made in any bill of
sale or assignment or other instrument evidencing any foreclosure sale hereunder
as to nonpayment of indebtedness, as to the occurrence of any default, as to
Secured Party having declared all of such indebtedness to be due and payable, or
as to notice of time, place and terms of sale and of the properties to be sold
having been duly given by Secured Party shall be taken as prima facie evidence
of the truth of the facts so stated and recited, absent manifest error.
(f) Secured Party may appoint or delegate any one or more persons or
entities as agent to perform any act or acts necessary or incident to any sale
of the Collateral held by Secured Party, including the sending of notices and
the conduct of the sale, in the name and on behalf of Secured Party.
(g) Any sale made pursuant to the provisions of this paragraph shall be
deemed to have been a public sale conducted in a commercially reasonable manner
if held contemporaneously with the foreclosure sale as provided in the Deed of
Trust upon giving the same notice with respect to the sale of the Collateral
hereunder as is required by the Deed of Trust.

any of the Obligations.

Agreement and without prejudice to any of its rights hereunder, Secured Party
may, without notice or demand, renew, extend or grant indulgences with respect
to any of the Obligations, take or release any other collateral as security for
any of the Obligations, or add or release any guarantor, endorser, surety or
other party to any of the Obligations.

against any Person liable for the payment or performance of any of the
Obligations or to foreclose upon, sell or otherwise realize upon or collect or
apply any other property, real or personal, securing any of the Obligations, as
a condition or prior to proceeding hereunder.
(f) Unless the context otherwise requires, or unless otherwise defined
herein, all terms used herein which are defined in the Uniform Commercial Code
as in effect in the State shall have the meanings therein stated.
(g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement,
the liability of Debtor and its officers, directors, general partners, managers,
members and principals for the indebtedness secured hereby and for the
performance of the other agreements, covenants and obligations contained herein
and in the Loan Documents shall be limited as set forth in Section 2.6 of the
