7.  Remedies.  Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and during the continuance of any such default at any time thereafter, Secured Party shall, by written notice to the Company, be entitled to accelerate all unpaid Obligations.

Secured Party shall give the Company such notice of any private or public sales as may be required by the UCC or other applicable law. Secured Party shall have the right upon any such public sale, and, to the extent permitted by law, upon any such private sale, to purchase the whole or any part of the Collateral so sold, free of any right or equity of redemption, which right or equity of redemption the Company hereby releases, to the extent permitted by law.  For the purpose of enabling Secured Party to exercise its rights and remedies under this Section 7 or otherwise in connection with this Agreement, each Company hereby grants to Secured Party an irrevocable, non-exclusive and assignable license (exercisable without payment or royalty or other compensation to Companies) to use, license or sublicense any intellectual property Collateral after an Event of Default.  Secured Party shall apply the proceeds of any sale or liquidation of the Collateral (the “Proceeds”), first to the payment of the reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Secured Party in connection with such sale or collection, including without limitation reasonable attorneys’ fees and legal expenses, second to the payment of the Obligations, whether on account of principal or interest or otherwise as Secured Party, in its sole discretion, may elect, and then to pay the balance, if any, to Company or as otherwise required by law. If such Proceeds are insufficient to pay the amounts required by law, Company shall be liable for any deficiency.
