Itis agreed that Lessor shall have sole control of any audit relating to such benefits and that Lessee may, to the extent permitted under applicable law, participate in any such audit, at its own expense, to the extent that any position it takes is not contrary or adverse to that of Lessor.

REMEDIES: Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, Lessor may exercise any one or more of the following remedies: (a) Declare the Accelerated Value immediately due and payable and similarly accelerate the balances due under any other Lease and agreements between Lessee and Lessor without notice or demand; (b) Charge Lessee interest on all monies due Lessor at the rate of eighteen percent (18%) per annum from the date of default until indefeasibly paid in full, but in no event more than the maximum rate permitted by law; (c) Require Lessee to assemble all orany part of the System at Lessee’s expense, at a place reasonably designated by Lessor; (d) Remove and take possession of any or all items of System, without demand or notice, wherever same may be located, with or without any court order or pre-taking hearing or other process of law; and (e) exercise any other remedy available to Lessor at law or in equity. Lessor may, at its option, use, ship, store or repair any or all ittems of the System so removed and shall sell, lease or otherwise dispose of any such System at a private or public sale. In the event Lessor disposes of the System, Lessor shall give Lessee credit for any sums received by Lessor from the sale or lease of the System after deduction of the expenses of sale or lease with such sums discounted at the implicit rate of interest, if appropriate. All remedies of Lessor hereunder are cumulative, are in addition to any other remedies provided for by law, and may, to the extent permitted by law, be exercised concurrently or separately. The exercise of any one remedy shall not be deemed to be an election of such remedy or to preclude the exercise of any other remedy. In addition, Lessee shall be responsible for all costs and expens- es incurred by Lessor in the exercise of its remedies hereunder, including without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, removal costs and agrees to hold Lessor harmless from and against all claims except those resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Lessor. No failure on the part of the Lessor to exercise and no delay in exercising any right or remedy shall operate as a waiver thereof or modify the terms of this Agreement or any Lease hereunder. A waiver of default shall not be a waiver of any other or subsequent default. Lessor’s recovery hereunder shall in no event exceed the maximum recovery permitted by law. 15. UCC FILINGS AND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS: Lessee authorizes Lessor to file a financing statement or equivalent document (and any and all amendments thereto) without the signature of either the Lessee or the Lessor, and the Lessee hereby ratifies and affirms all such financing statements filed pursuant to this section. Lessee hereby appoints Lessor as Lessee's attorney-in-fact to do all acts or things which Lessor may deem necessary to protect Lessor's title and interest hereunder. Except for any Lease where the Lessee has a Put Option or a $1 Initials _X purchase option, it is the intent of the parties that each Lease is a true lease under the UCC, and the filing of a financing statement under the UCC or other applicable law shall not be con- strued as evidence that any security interest was intended to be created, but only to give pub- lic notice of Lessor's ownership of the System. For any Lease where Lessee has a $1.00 pur- chase option or a Put Option or if this Agreement or any Lease hereunder is otherwise deemed at any time to be one intended as security, then Lessee grants Lessor a security interest in the System (and all accessions thereto and substitutions therefore) and the proceeds from the sale, lease or other disposition of the System; this security interest secures all indebtedness owing under the Lease and all other leasing schedules, whether now existing or hereafter arising, held by the same Lessor at any given point in time. 16.
