In the event that Owner possesses or receives possession of any

policies are altered or cancelled in any manner. The insurance
policies shall name Lender as a loss payee and provide that no
act or omission of Owner or any other person shall affect the
right of Lender to be paid the insurance proceeds pertaining to
the loss or damage of the Collateral. In the event Owner fails
to acquire or maintain insurance, Lender (after providing notice
as may be required by law) may in its discretion procure
appropriate insurance coverage upon the Collateral and charge the
insurance cost as an advance of principal under the promissory
note. Owner shall furnish Lender with evidence of insurance
indicating the required coverage. Lender may act as attorney-
in-fact for Owner in making and settling claims under insurance
policies, cancelling any policy or endorsing Owner's name on any
draft or negotiable instrument drawn by any insurer.

responsible for the performance of any of Owner's obligations
with respect to the Collateral under any circumstances. Owner

suits and other legal proceedings (cumulatively "Claims")
pertaining to its business operations or the Collateral
including, but not limited to, those arising from Lender's
performance of Owner's obligations with respect to the
Collateral. Owner, upon the request of Lender, shall hire legal
counsel to defend Lender from such Claims, and pay the attorneys'
fees, legal expenses and other costs to the extent permitted by
applicable law, incurred in connection therewith. In the
alternative, Lender shall be entitled to employ its own legal
counsel to defend such Claims at Owner's cost.

all tax returns and pay all taxes, licenses, fees and assessments
relating to its business operations and the Collateral

(f) to require Owner to deliver and make available to
Lender any Collateral at a place reasonably
convenient to Owner and Lender;
(g) to sell, lease or otherwise dispose of any

notice shall constitute reasonable notification. In the event
that Lender institutes an action to recover any Collateral or

in an action against Owner, Owner waives the posting of any bond
which might otherwise be required. Lender's remedies under this
paragraph are in addition to those available at common law, such
