            The Loan Parties acknowledge and agree that failure by any Loan Party to timely comply with any of the covenants contained in this Section 8 shall constitute an immediate Event of Default.

                          (a)        Each Loan Party covenants with Lender that the Loan Parties and their Subsidiaries shall use its best efforts to provide Lender with not less than 7 Business Days prior written notice before filing any voluntary proceeding, or cooperating with or consenting to the filing for any involuntary proceeding, under any chapter of the Bankruptcy Code or in connection with any other Insolvency Proceeding, or any other voluntary or involuntary petition for relief under any Debtor Relief Law. Each Loan Party further agrees that during the notice periods described above and before commencing any Insolvency Proceeding, filing any voluntary proceeding, or cooperating with or consenting to the filing for any involuntary proceeding or involuntary Insolvency Proceeding, under any chapter of the Bankruptcy Code or any Debtor Relief Law, the Loan Parties and their Subsidiaries shall use their best efforts to cooperate in good faith with Lender in order to negotiate a mutually agreeable “cash collateral” budget and plan for proposal in the first day orders.

                          (b)        Lender shall immediately become entitled, among other relief to which Lender may be entitled under the Loan Documents, and at law or in equity, to obtain upon ex parte application therefor and without further notice or action of any kind, (i) an order from any court of competent jurisdiction (the “ Court ”) prohibiting the use by the trustee in bankruptcy, or by such Loan Party as debtor-in-possession, of Lender’s “ cash collateral ” (as such term is defined in Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code) in connection with the Loan Documents; and (ii) an order from the Court granting immediate relief from the automatic stay pursuant to Section 362 of the Bankruptcy Code so as to permit Lender to exercise all of Lender’s rights and remedies pursuant to the Loan Documents, and at law and in equity, and each Loan Party further acknowledges and agrees that (x) the occurrence or existence of any breach or default under this Agreement or any Event of Default under any other Loan Document shall, in and of itself, constitute “ cause ” for relief from the automatic stay pursuant to the provisions of Section 362(d)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code, and (y) in no event shall any Loan Party contest a motion to lift the automatic stay filed by Lender.

                          (c)        Each Loan Party represents and warrants to Lender and agrees as follows: (i) the Loan Parties have assured Lender that if the consensual out-of-court restructuring contemplated by this Agreement cannot be carried out by the Loan Parties in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, then the Loan Parties intend to allow Lender to foreclose (or accept all or a portion of the Collateral in full or partial satisfaction of the Obligations) and exercise all of Lender’s other rights and remedies as a secured creditor; (ii) the Loan Parties do not intend to commence any Insolvency Proceeding and have no intention of seeking any non-consensual relief against Lender in any Insolvency Proceeding; (iii) if the Loan Parties are unable to reorganize their business and financial affairs prior to the occurrence of any Event of Default so that the Loan Parties are able to satisfy their obligations to Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, any further attempt or additional time to reorganize the Loan Parties’ financial affairs and to pay and perform the Loan Parties’ obligations to Lender would be fruitless and impracticable to achieve; (iv) any filing by any Loan Party of any Insolvency Proceeding or the exercise of like or similar rights by any Loan Party prior to satisfaction of the Obligations to Lender would be inconsistent with and contrary to the intentions of the parties hereto; (v) the Loan Parties cannot formulate or implement a successful plan of reorganization, restructuring or similar relief in any such Insolvency Proceeding that would adequately and sufficiently protect the rights of Lender or enable the Loan Parties to satisfy their obligations to Lender; (vi) in light of the foregoing, any such filing would be made in bad faith as such term is used by courts in construing the Bankruptcy Code; (vii) in light of the foregoing, if any Insolvency Proceeding is filed by or against any Loan Party, Lender shall have the right, among other things, to seek and obtain immediate relief from any stay as to the Collateral for the obligations secured thereby and to have the exclusivity period for the filing of any plan of reorganization terminated, and the Loan Parties shall be estopped from objecting to or opposing in any manner the relief requested by Lender or the termination of any such exclusivity period in a bankruptcy proceeding; and (viii) the Loan Parties will not solicit, assist or encourage any third party to file any Insolvency Proceeding petition against any Loan Party. The Lender is relying on, among other things, the representations and warranties contained in this Section 7 in entering into this Agreement.

As to each and every Claim released hereunder, each Loan Party hereby represents that it has received the advice of legal counsel with regard to the releases contained herein, and having been so advised, specifically waives the benefit of the provisions of Section 1542 of the Civil Code of California which provides as follows:

Each Loan Party understands, acknowledges and agrees that the release set forth above may be pleaded as a full and complete defense and may be used as a basis for an injunction against any action, suit or other proceeding which may be instituted, prosecuted or attempted in breach of the provisions of such release.

Each Loan Party further agrees that it shall not dispute the validity or enforceability of the Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or any of its obligations thereunder, or the validity, priority, enforceability or the extent of Lender’s Lien on any item of Collateral under the Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents. If any Loan Party or any Person acting for or on behalf of, or claiming through it, violate the foregoing covenant, such Loan Party, agrees to pay, in addition to such other damages as any Releasee may sustain as a result of such violation, all attorneys’ fees and costs incurred by such Releasee as a result of such violation. In agreeing to the foregoing release, each Loan Party expressly disclaims any reliance on any representations or warranties, acts or omissions by any of the Releasees and hereby agrees and acknowledges that the validity and effectiveness of the above release do not depend in any way on any such representations or warranties, acts or omissions or the accuracy, completeness or validity thereof.

            16.      Specific Performance .
