Unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, at 5:00 PM Pacific time each Business Day, if any Obligations remain outstanding, the Bank shall apply all amounts then on deposit in the Collection Account to the payment of such Obligations as Borrower specifies.

Except to the extent (but only to the extent) caused by the Bank’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, Bank shall not be liable for any loss or damage which Borrower may suffer as a result of Bank’s processing of items or its exercise of any other rights or remedies under this Agreement, including without limitation indirect, special or consequential damages, loss of revenues or profits, or any claim, demand or action by any third party arising out of or in connection with the processing of items or the exercise of any other rights or remedies under this Agreement. Borrower shall indemnify and hold Bank harmless from and against all such third party claims, demands or actions, and all related expenses or liabilities, including, without limitation, attorney’s fees and including claims, damages, fines, expenses, liabilities or causes of action of whatever kind resulting from Bank’s own negligence except to the extent (but only to the extent) caused by Bank’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.”
