additions to any of the collateral described herein, whether added now or
later,
(B) All products and produce of any of the property described in this
Collateral section.

not have, a nonpurchase money security interest in household goods, to the
extent such a security interest would be prohibited by applicable law. In

the tangible personal property and beneficial use of all the Collateral and may
use it in any lawful manner not inconsistent with this Agreement or the Related
Documents, provided that Grantor's right to possession and beneficial use shall
not apply to any Collateral where possession of the Collateral by Lender is
required by law to perfect Lender's security interest in such Collateral. If
Lender at any time has possession of any Collateral, whether before or after an
Event of Default, Lender shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in
the custody and preservation of the Collateral if Lender takes such action for
that purpose as Grantor shall request or as Lender, in Lender's sole
discretion, shall deem appropriate under the circumstances, but failure to
honor any request by Grantor shall not of itself be deemed to be a failure to
exercise reasonable care. Lender shall not be required to take any steps
necessary to preserve any rights in the Collateral against prior parties, nor
to protect, preserve or maintain any security interest given to secure the
Indebtedness.
LENDER'S EXPENDITURES. If any action or proceeding is commenced that would

Documents, Lender on Grantor's behalf may (but shall not be obligated to) take
any action that Lender deems appropriate, including but not limited to
discharging or paying all taxes, liens, security interests, encumbrances and
other claims, at any time levied or placed on the Collateral and paying all
costs for insuring, maintaining and preserving the Collateral. All such
expenditures incurred or paid by Lender for such purposes will then bear
interest at the rate charged under the Note from the date incurred or paid by
Lender to the date of repayment by Grantor. All such expenses will become a
part of the Indebtedness and, at Lender's option, will (A} be payable on
demand; (B) be added to the balance of the Note and be apportioned among and be
payable with any installment payments to become due during either (1) the term
of any applicable insurance policy; or (2) the remaining term of the Note; or

False Statements. Any warranty, representation or statement made or
furnished to Lender by Grantor or on Grantor's behalf under this Agreement
or the Related Documents is false or misleading in any material respect,
either now or at the time made or furnished or becomes false or misleading
at any time thereafter.

forfeiture proceedings, whether by judicial proceeding, self-help,
repossession or any other method, by any creditor of Grantor or by any
governmental agency against any collateral securing the Indebtedness. This
includes a garnishment of any of Grantor's accounts, including deposit
accounts, with Lender. However, this Event of Default shall not apply if
there is a good faith dispute by Grantor as to the validity or
reasonableness of the claim which is the basis of the creditor or
forfeiture proceeding and if Grantor gives Lender written notice of the
creditor or forfeiture proceeding and deposits with Lender monies or a
surety bond for the creditor or forfeiture proceeding, in an amount

be cured if Grantor, after receiving written notice from Lender demanding
cure oi such default: |1) cures the default within fifteen (15) days; or

necessary steps sufficient to produce compliance as soon as reasonably
practical.

Agreement, Lender shall be entitled to apply at any time pending such
foreclosure suit to the court having jurisdiction thereof for the
appointment of a receiver of any or al! of the Collateral, and of all
rents, incomes, profits, issues and revenues thereof, from whatsoever
source. The parties agree that the court shall forthwith appoint such
receiver with the usual powers and duties of receivers in like cases. Such
appointment shall be made by the court as a matter of strict right to
Lender and without notice to Grantor, and without reference to the adequacy
or inadequacy of the value of the Collateral, or to Grantor's solvency or
any other party defendant to such suit. Grantor hereby specifically waives
the right to object to the appointment of a receiver and agrees that such
appointment shall be made as an admitted equity and as a matter of absolute
right to Lender, and consents to the appointment of any officer or employee
of Lender as receiver. Lender shall have the right to have a receiver

against the Indebtedness. The receiver may serve without bond if permitted
by law. Lender's right to the appointment of a receiver shall exist whether
or not the apparent value of the Collateral exceeds the Indebtedness by a
substantial amount. Employment by Lender shall not disqualify a person from
serving as a receiver.
Collect Revenues, Apply Accounts. Lender, either itself or through a
receiver, may collect the payments, rents, income, and revenues from the
Collateral. Lender may at any time in Lender's discretion transfer any
Collateral into Lender's own name or that of Lender's nominee and receive
the payments, rents, income, and revenues therefrom and hold the same as
security for the Indebtedness or apply it to payment of the Indebtedness in
such order of preference as Lender may determine. Insofar as the Collateral
consists of accounts, general intangibles, insurance policies, instruments,
chattel paper, choses in action, or similar property. Lender may demand,
collect, receipt for, settle, compromise, adjust, sue for, foreclose, or
realize on the Collateral as Lender may determine, whether or not
Indebtedness or Collateral is then due. For these purposes, Lender may, on
behalf of and in the name of Grantor, receive, open and dispose of mail
addressed to Grantor; change any address to which mail and payments are to
be sent; and endorse notes, checks, drafts, money orders, documents of
title, instruments and items pertaining to payment, shipment, or storage of
any Collateral. To facilitate collection. Lender may notify account debtors
and obligors on any Collateral to make payments directly to Lender.

Lender may obtain a judgment against Grantor for any deficiency remaining
on the Indebtedness due to Lender after application of all amounts received
from the exercise of the rights provided in this Agreement. Grantor shall
be liable for a deficiency even if the transaction described in this
subsection is a sale of accounts or chattel paper.

a secured creditor under the provisions of the Uniform Commercial Code, as

exercise any or all other rights and remedies it may have available at law,

Lender's rights and remedies, whether evidenced by this Agreement, the

exercised singularly or concurrently. Election by Lender to pursue any
remedy shall not exclude pursuit of any other remedy, and an election to
