representatives, successors and assigns.
2. Waiver. Neither delay in exercise nor partial exercise of any Secured
Party's remedies or rights shall waive further exercise of those

rights does not waive subsequent exercise of those remedies or rights.

Secured party's waiver of any right in this agreement or of any default
is binding only if it is in writing. Secured Party may remedy any
default without waiving it.

Secured party may perform those obligations and be reimbursed by Debtor
