of any law or any order of any court or governmental authority or agency, (ii)
conflict with or result in any breach of any of the terms, conditions or

and is continuing. The Company is not in default in the payment of principal or
interest on any Indebtedness and is not in default under any instrument or
instruments or agreements under and subject to which any Indebtedness has been
issued and no event has occurred and is continuing under the provisions of any
such instrument, contract or agreement which with the lapse of time or the

and representation by the Company to Lender that there does not then exist a
Default or an Event of Default and (ii) a reaffirmation as of the date of said
request of all of the warranties and representations of the Company contained in
this Agreement.

Lender's direction, will) take such action (not otherwise forbidden hereunder)
as the Company or Lender may reasonably deem necessary or advisable to enforce
collection or
14
performance of each such Receivable or General Intangible. Except for actions
and omissions in the ordinary course of business that do not in the aggregate

to be performed all of its obligations with respect to the goods or services,
the sale or lease or rendering of which gave rise or will give rise to each such
Receivable or General Intangible, and (ii) will not (whether through failure to
duly perform its obligations under any contracts, instruments, and agreements
are related to any such Receivable or General Intangible, or by any written
instrument, or otherwise) take or allow any action or omission which causes any
such Receivable or General Intangible to become subject to any contra-accounts,
setoffs, defenses, counterclaims, discounts, allowances, rebates, credits or
adjustments by or available to account debtors obligated on such Receivable or
General Intangible.

instruments, and agreements that are related to any Documents or Instruments
that are included within the Collateral, or by any written instrument, or
otherwise) take or allow any action or omission that causes any Documents or

condition, repair and working order and will use its best efforts to cause such

other improvements to or in connection with such Equipment which are necessary
or desirable or that Lender may request to such end. The Company will promptly
furnish to Lender a statement respecting any loss or damage to any of such

encumbrances or adverse claims, and/or

holder of any or all of the Obligations shall otherwise collect moneys which are
determined to constitute interest that would otherwise increase the interest on
any or all of the Obligations to an amount in excess of that permitted to be
charged by applicable law then in effect, then all sums determined to constitute
interest in excess of such legal limit shall, without penalty, be promptly
applied to reduce the then outstanding principal of the related Obligations or,
at Lender's or such holder's option, promptly returned to the Company or the
other payor thereof upon such determination. In determining whether or not the
interest paid or payable, under any specific circumstance, exceeds the maximum
amount permitted under applicable law, Lender and the Company (and any other
payors thereof) shall to the greatest extent permitted under applicable law,
characterize any non-principal payment as an expense, fee or premium rather than
as interest, exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and
amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread the total amount of interest throughout
the entire contemplated term of the instruments evidencing the Obligations in
accordance with the amounts outstanding from time to time
25
thereunder and the maximum legal rate of interest from time to time in effect
under applicable law in order to lawfully contract for, charge, or receive the
maximum amount of interest permitted under applicable law. In the event
applicable law provides for an interest ceiling under Chapter 303 of the Texas
Finance Code (the "Texas Finance Code") as amended, for that day, the ceiling
shall be the "weekly ceiling" as defined in the Texas Finance Code, provided
that if any applicable Law permits greater interest, the Law permitting the
greatest interest shall apply. As used in this section the term "applicable law"
means the laws of the State of Texas or the Laws of the United States of
America, whichever laws allow the greater interest, as such laws now exist or
may be changed or amended or come into effect in the future.
9.14. Exculpation. Nothing in the Loan Documents shall be construed to
constitute Lender a trustee, joint venturer, or other fiduciary of the Company.
9.15. Waiver of Jury Trial, Punitive Damages. The Company hereby knowingly,
voluntarily, intentionally, and irrevocably waive, to the maximum extent not
prohibited by Law, any right it may have to a trial by jury in respect of any
litigation based hereon, or directly or indirectly at any time arising out of,
under or in connection with the Loan Documents or any transaction contemplated
thereby or associated therewith, before or after maturity; waives, to the
maximum extent not prohibited by Law, any right it may have to claim or recover
in any such litigation any "Special Damages", as defined below, certifies that
no party hereto nor any representative or agent or counsel for any party hereto
has represented, expressly or otherwise, or implied that such party would not,
in the event of litigation, seek to enforce the foregoing waivers, and
acknowledges that it has been induced to enter into this Agreement, the other
Loan Documents and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby by, among
other things, the mutual waivers and certifications contained in this section.
As used in this section, "Special Damages" includes all special, consequential,
exemplary, or punitive damages (regardless of how named), but does not include
any payments or funds which any party hereto has expressly promised to pay or
deliver to any other party hereto.
9.16. Attorney Representation. Each party hereto understands and agrees that (i)
J. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ represents only the Company and (ii). W. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇,
P.C. represents only the Lender only. Furthermore, each party hereto hereby
acknowledges that (i) such party has either consulted with or had the
opportunity to consult with independent legal counsel regarding the transactions
contemplated in this Agreement and in the other Loan Documents and (ii) such
party and its legal counsel (if applicable) have had a chance to review this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
9.17. Facsimile signatures. For purposes of the parties' execution of this
Agreement, it is expressly agreed that a facsimile or telecopy of a party's
signature hereto shall be as valid, binding and enforceable as the original.
Likewise, each party agrees that an e-mail communication acknowledging receipt
of this document, and containing an express statement that the sender of the
e-mail agrees to the document's terms and conditions, shall be as valid and
enforceable as that sender or party's original signature on this document.
9.18 Other Documents. The parties hereto shall execute such other and further
documents as may be necessary, appropriate or convenient to effectuate the
purposes of this agreement.
IN WITNESS OF THE FOREGOING, the Company and Lender have executed or

maturity, exceed the maximum amount of interest which, under applicable law, may
be contracted for, charged, or received on this Note, and this Note is expressly
made subject to the provisions of the Loan Agreement which more fully set out
the limitations on how interest accrues hereon. In the event applicable law
provides for an interest ceiling under Chapter 303 of the Texas Finance Code
