(g)          If any one or more of the Events of Default, as such term is defined in the Note (including the passage of applicable cure periods provided for in the Note) shall occur or shall exist and be continuing, then in any such event, the Seller shall have such additional rights and remedies in respect of the Assets or any portion thereof as are provided by the Uniform Commercial Code and such other rights and remedies in respect thereof which it may have at law or in equity or under this Agreement.
 
(h)          The Seller shall apply the proceeds of any sale or liquidation of the Assets, first to the payment of the reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Seller in connection with such sale or collection, including without limitation reasonable attorneys’ fees and legal expenses, second to the payment of the Note, whether on account of principal or interest or otherwise as the Seller, in its sole discretion, may elect, and then to pay the balance, if any, to the Buyer or as otherwise required by law.  If such proceeds are insufficient to pay the amounts required by law, it shall be liable for any deficiency.
