From time to time, Borrower shall, upon FINOVA's request, execute and deliver confirmatory written instruments pledging the Collateral to FINOVA, but Borrower's failure to do so shall not affect or limit FINOVA's security interest or other rights in and to the Collateral. Until the Obligations have been fully satisfied and FINOVA's obligation to make further advances hereunder has terminated, FINOVA's security interest in the Collateral shall continue in full force and effect.
