f)Secured Party may exercise any of its rights or remedies hereunder serially, wholly, partially, or collectively, and the exercise of any one right does not preclude the exercise of any other right.

7.Miscellaneous.

a)No Waiver. No failure on the part of Secured Party to exercise and no delay in exercising, any right, remedy, or power hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise by Secured Party of any right, remedy, or power hereunder preclude any other or future exercise of any other right, remedy, or power. Each and every right, remedy, and power hereby granted to Secured Party or allowed it by law or other agreement shall be cumulative and not exclusive, and may be exercised by Secured Party from time to time.

b)Secured Party’s Costs.

Secured Party shall not be required to take any action of any kind to collect, preserve, or protect its or Debtor's rights in the Collateral or against any other party. Secured Party’s prior recourse to any part or all of the Collateral shall not constitute a condition of any demand, suit, or proceeding for the payment or collection of the Indebtedness.

d)Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is determined to be invalid, the invalidity of such provision shall not affect or invalidate the other provisions of this Agreement.

e)Successors and Assigns. This Agreement binds and inures to the benefit of the heirs, personal representatives, successors and assigns of Debtor and Secured Party; however, this Agreement may not be assigned by Debtor without the written consent of Secured Party.
