by the Administrator or the arbitrator(s), including the sanction of summarily
dismissing any Dispute or defense with prejudice. The arbitrator(s) shall have
the authority to resolve any Dispute regarding the terms of this agreement, this
arbitration clause or Related Documents, including any claim or controversy
regarding the arbitrability of any Dispute. All limitations periods applicable
to any Dispute or defense, whether by statute or agreement, shall apply to any
arbitration proceeding hereunder and the arbitrator(s) shall have the authority

if so, to summarily enter an award dismissing any Dispute or defense on that
basis. The doctrines of compulsory counterclaim, res judicata, and collateral
estoppel shall apply to any arbitration proceeding hereunder so that a party
must state as a counterclaim in the arbitration proceeding any claim or
controversy which arises out of the transaction or occurrence that is the
subject matter of the Dispute. The arbitrator(s) may in the arbitrator(s)'

right to a court trial. Such a demand must be filed with the Administrator
within thirty (30) days following the date of the arbitration award; if such a
demand is not made within that time period, the amount of the arbitration award
shall be binding. The computation of the total amount of an arbitration award
shall include amounts awarded for attorneys' fees and costs, arbitration
administration fees and costs, and arbitrator(s)' fees.

garnishment, or the appointment of a receiver. Such rights can be exercised at
any time, before or during initiation of an arbitration proceeding, except to
the extent such action is contrary to the arbitration award. The exercise of
such rights shall not constitute a waiver of the right to submit any Dispute to
arbitration, and any claim or controversy related to the exercise of such rights

Borrowers. For notice purposes, Borrower will keep Lender informed at all times
of Borrower's current address(es).

Severability. If a court of competent jurisdiction finds any provision of this
Agreement to be invalid or unenforceable as to any person or circumstance, such
finding shall not render that provision invalid or unenforceable as to any other
persons or circumstances. If feasible, any such offending provision shall be
deemed to be modified to be within the limits of enforceability or validity;

and all other provisions of this Agreement in-all other respects shall remain

Agreement.

Waiver. Lender shall not be deemed to have waived any rights under this
Agreement unless such waiver is given in writing and signed by Lender. No delay
or omission on the part of Lender in exercising any right shall operate as a
waiver of such right or any other right. A waiver by Lender of a provision of
this Agreement shall not prejudice or constitute a waiver of Lenders right
otherwise to demand strict compliance with that provision or any other provision
of this Agreement. No prior waiver by Lender, nor any course of dealing between
Lender and Borrower, or between Lender and any Grantor, shall constitute a
waiver of any of Lender's rights or of any obligations of Borrower or of any
Grantor as to any future transactions. Whenever the consent of Lender is
required under this Agreement, the granting of such consent by Lender in any
instance shall not constitute continuing consent in subsequent instances where
such consent is required, and in all cases such consent may be granted or
withheld in the sole discretion of Lender.

documents are the final expression of the agreement between Lender and Borrower
