(c)           Receiver.  The Secured Party may obtain the appointment of a receiver of the Collateral and each Pledgor consents to and waives any right to notice of such appointment.

Section 4.03.          Secured Party’s Rights with Respect to Proceeds and Other Collateral.  (a)             All payments and other deliveries received by or for the account of the Secured Party from time to time pursuant to Section 3.05, together with the proceeds of all other Collateral from time to time held by or for the account of the Secured Party (whether as a result of the exercise by the Secured Party of its rights under Section 4.02(a) or (b) or otherwise) may, at the election of the Secured Party, (i) be held by the Secured Party, or any Person designated by the Secured Party to receive or hold the same, as Collateral, (ii) be or continue to be applied as provided in Section 4.01 or (iii) be disposed of as provided in Section 4.02(a) or (b) and Section 4.04.

11

Security Interest and obligations under Articles 1, 3 and 4 shall terminate on the date of such re-designation.

Section 5.18.          Notices.  (a)  Manner of Delivery.  All notices, communications and materials to be given or delivered pursuant to the Collateral Documents shall be given or delivered in the manner and at the address, telephone numbers and telecopier numbers specified in Section 10.02 of the Credit Agreement.  In the event of a discrepancy between any telephonic notice and any written confirmation thereof, such written confirmation shall be deemed the effective notice except to the extent the Secured Party has acted in reliance on such telephonic notice.
