5. Limitation of Subordination .
The subordination of Lender’s Encumbrances in or on any
Summit Collateral to any and all Encumbrances in favor of Summit in
or on any Summit Collateral, as provided in Section 4 above,
shall only be effective up to the maximum principal amount of two
million dollars ($2,000,000.00), plus the amount of all interest,
fees, costs, and expenses owing by Client under the Summit
Financing.
6. Exercise of Default Rights and
Remedies . Lender agrees that it will not exercise any Default
Rights and Remedies concerning the Lender Financing, including any
Default Rights and Remedies against any of the Summit Collateral,

notice of the default on the Lender Financing, which notice shall
specify the nature and terms of the default on the Lender
Financing.
7. Prohibition of Prepayment of Lender
Financing . Lender covenants and agrees that it will not
receive or accept any prepayment of the Lender Financing so long as

not be unreasonably withheld. Lender acknowledges that the
agreements evidencing the Summit Financing will prohibit Client
from making any such prepayment. However, if Lender receives any
prepayment in violation of this covenant, such payments shall be
received in trust for Summit and shall be immediately tendered to
Summit to be applied toward payment of the Summit Financing.
