In the event Bank has accelerated the Loan and Junior Lienholder cures all Events of Default giving rise to such acceleration within the thirty (30) day cure period described above, such cure shall have the effect of de-accelerating the Loan; provided, however, that such de-acceleration shall not waive or limit any of Bank's rights to accelerate the Loan or exercise any other remedies under the Senior Loan Documents as to any future or continuing Events of Default. It is the express intent of the parties hereunder that Bank shall have the right to pursue all rights and remedies except completion of a Foreclosure Remedy without liability to Junior Lienholder for failure to provide timely notice to Junior Lienholder required hereunder, and that Bank's liability hereunder shall be expressly limited to actual and consequential damages to Junior Lienholder directly caused by Bank's completion of a Foreclosure Remedy without Junior Lienholder receiving the notice and opportunity to cure described above.

If Bank holds such proceeds, awards or compensation and/or monitors the disbursement thereof, Junior Lienholder agrees that Bank may also elect, in its sole and absolute discretion, to hold and monitor the disbursement of such proceeds, awards and compensation to which Junior Lienholder is or may be entitled. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to require Bank, in any way whatsoever,to act for or on behalf of Junior Lienholder or to hold or monitor any proceeds,awards or compensation in trust for or on behalf of Junior Lienholder, and all or any of such sums so held or monitored may be commingled with any funds of Bank. 9.
