2. Loan Facility.




(a) Loans.



(i) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein and in the Ancillary Agreements,
Lender may make loans (the “Loans”) to the Companies from time to time during the Term
which, in the aggregate at any time outstanding, will not exceed the lesser of (x) (I) the Capital
Availability Amount minus (II) such reserves as Lender may deem proper and necessary from time to
time in its commercially reasonable judgment (the “Reserves”) and (y) an amount equal to
(I) the Accounts Availability plus (II) the Inventory Availability, minus (III) the Reserves. The
amount derived at any time from Section 2(a)(i)(y)(I) plus Section 2(a)(i)(y)(II) minus
2(a)(i)(y)(III) shall be referred to as the “Formula Amount.” The Companies shall, jointly
and severally, execute and deliver to Lender on the Closing Date the Note evidencing the Loans
funded on the Closing Date. The Companies hereby each acknowledge and agree that Lender’s
obligation to purchase the Note from the Companies on the Closing Date shall be contingent upon the
satisfaction (or waiver by Lender) of the items and matters set forth in the closing checklist
provided by Lender to the Companies on or prior to the Closing Date. The Companies hereby each
further acknowledge and agree that, immediately prior to each borrowing hereunder and immediately
after giving effect thereto, the Companies shall be deemed to have certified to Lender that at the
time of each such proposed borrowing and also after giving effect thereto (i) there shall exist no
Event of Default, (ii) all representations, warranties and covenants made by the Companies in
connection with this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements are true, correct and complete in all
material respects and (iii) all of each Company’s and its respective Subsidiaries’ covenant
requirements under this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements have been met in all material
respects. The Companies hereby agree to provide a certificate confirming the foregoing
concurrently with each request for a borrowing hereunder.



(ii) Notwithstanding the limitations set forth above, if requested by any Company, Lender
retains the right to lend to such Company from time to time such amounts in excess of such
limitations as Lender may determine in its sole discretion (each, a “Permitted
Overadvance”). In connection with each such request by one or more Companies, the Companies
shall be deemed to have certified, as of the time of such proposed borrowing and immediately after
giving effect thereto, to the satisfaction of all Overadvance Conditions. For purposes hereof,
“Overadvance Conditions” means (i) no Event of Default shall exist and be continuing as of such
date; (ii) all representations, warranties and covenants made by the Companies in connection with
the Security Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements shall be true, correct and complete in all
material respects as of such date; and (iii) the Companies and their respective Subsidiaries shall
have taken all action necessary to grant Lender “control” over all of the Companies’ and their
respective Subsidiaries’ Deposit Accounts (the “Control 


 


2









 





Accounts”), with any agreements establishing “control” to be in form and substance
satisfactory to Lender. “Control” over such Control Accounts shall be released upon the
indefeasible repayment in full and termination of the Permitted Overadvance (together with all
accrued interest and fees which remain unpaid in respect thereof). The Companies hereby agree to
provide a certificate confirming the satisfaction of the Overadvance Conditions concurrently with
the request for same.



(iii) If any interest, fees, costs or charges payable to Lender hereunder are not paid when
due, each of the Companies shall thereby be deemed to have requested, and Lender is hereby
authorized at its discretion to make and charge to the Companies’ account, a Loan as of such date
in an amount equal to such unpaid interest, fees, costs or charges.



(iv) If any Company at any time fails to perform or observe any of the covenants contained in
this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, Lender may, but need not, perform or observe such
covenant on behalf and in the name, place and stead of such Company (or, at Lender’s option, in
Lender’s name) and may, but need not, take any and all other actions which Lender may deem
necessary to cure or correct such failure (including the payment of taxes, the satisfaction of
Liens, the performance of obligations owed to Account Debtors, lessors or other obligors, the
procurement and maintenance of insurance, the execution of assignments, security agreements and
financing statements, and the endorsement of instruments). The amount of all monies expended and
all costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and legal expenses) incurred by Lender in
connection with or as a result of the performance or observance of such agreements or the taking of
such action by Lender shall be charged to the Companies’ account as a Loan and added to the
Obligations. To facilitate Lender’s performance or observance of such covenants by each Company,
each Company hereby irrevocably appoints Lender, or Lender’s delegate, acting alone, as such
Company’s attorney in fact (which appointment is coupled with an interest) with the right (but not
the duty) from time to time to create, prepare, complete, execute, deliver, endorse or file in the
name and on behalf of such Company any and all instruments, documents, assignments, security
agreements, financing statements, applications for insurance and other agreements and writings
required to be obtained, executed, delivered or endorsed by such Company.



(v) Lender will account to Company Agent monthly with a statement of all Loans and other
advances, charges and payments made pursuant to this Agreement, and such account rendered by Lender
shall be deemed final, binding and conclusive unless Lender is notified by Company Agent in writing
to the contrary within thirty (30) days of the date each account was rendered specifying the item
or items to which objection is made.



(vi) During the Term, the Companies may borrow and prepay Loans in accordance with the terms
and conditions hereof.



(vii) (x) If any Eligible Account is not paid by the Account Debtor within ninety (90) days
after the date that such Eligible Account was invoiced or within 180 days if such Eligible Account
is covered by credit default insurance acceptable to the Lender or (y) if any Account Debtor
asserts a deduction, dispute, contingency, set-off, or counterclaim with respect to any Eligible
Account, (each, a “Delinquent Account”), the Companies shall jointly and severally (i)
reimburse Lender for the amount of the Loans made with respect to such Delinquent
Account or (ii) immediately replace such Delinquent Account with an otherwise Eligible
Account.

3. Repayment of the Loans. The Companies (a) may prepay the Obligations from time to
time in accordance with the terms and provisions of the Note (and Section 17 hereof if such
prepayment is due to a termination of this Agreement); (b) shall repay on the expiration of the
Term (i) the then aggregate outstanding principal balance of the Loans together with accrued and
unpaid interest, fees and charges and; (ii) all other amounts owed Lender under this Agreement and
the Ancillary Agreements; and (c) absent approval of Permitted Overadvance by Lender pursuant to
Section 2(a)(ii), shall repay on any day on which the then aggregate outstanding principal balance
of the Loans are in excess of the Formula Amount at such time, Loans in an amount equal to such
excess and (d) shall repay any Permitted Overadvance on the date specified by Lender upon approval
of such Permitted Overadvance. Any payments of principal, interest, fees or any other amounts
payable hereunder or under any Ancillary Agreement shall be made prior to 12:00 noon (New York
time) on the due date thereof in immediately available funds.



4. Procedure for Loans. Company Agent may by written notice request a borrowing of
Loans prior to 12:00 noon (New York time) on the Business Day of its request to incur, on the next
Business Day, a Loan. Together with each request for a Loan (or at such other intervals as Lender
may request), Company Agent shall deliver to Lender a Borrowing Base Certificate in the form of
Exhibit B attached hereto, which shall be certified as true and correct by the Chief
Executive Officer or Chief Financial Officer, Corporate Controller or Animal Applications Segment
Corporate Controller of Company Agent together with all supporting documentation relating thereto.
All Loans shall be disbursed from whichever office or other place Lender may designate from time to
time and shall be charged to the Companies’ account on Lender’s books. The proceeds of each Loan
made by Lender shall be made available to Company Agent on the Business Day following the Business
Day so requested in accordance with the terms of this Section 4 by way of credit to the applicable
Company’s operating account maintained with such bank as Company Agent designated to Lender. Any
and all Obligations due and owing hereunder may be charged to the Companies’ account and shall
constitute Loans.




5. Interest and Payments.




(a) Interest.



(i) Except as modified by Section 5(a)(iii) below, the Companies shall jointly and severally
pay interest at the Contract Rate on the unpaid principal balance of each Loan until such time as
such Loan is collected in full in good funds in dollars of the United States of America.



(ii) Interest and payments shall be computed on the basis of actual days elapsed in a year of
360 days. At Lender’s option, Lender may charge the Companies’ account for said interest.



(iii) Effective upon the occurrence of any Event of Default and for so long as any Event of
Default shall be continuing, the Contract Rate shall automatically be
increased as set forth in the Note (such increased rate, the “Default Rate”), and all
outstanding Obligations, including unpaid interest, shall continue to accrue interest from the date
of such Event of Default at the Default Rate applicable to such Obligations.


 


4









 





(iv) In no event shall the aggregate interest payable hereunder or under the Note exceed the
maximum rate permitted under any applicable law or regulation, as in effect from time to time (the
“Maximum Legal Rate”), and if any provision of this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement is
in contravention of any such law or regulation, interest payable under this Agreement and each
Ancillary Agreement shall be computed on the basis of the Maximum Legal Rate (so that such interest
will not exceed the Maximum Legal Rate).



(v) The Companies shall jointly and severally pay principal, interest and all other amounts
payable hereunder, or under any Ancillary Agreement, without any deduction whatsoever, including
any deduction for any set-off or counterclaim.

fees, which payment is intended to defray certain of LCM’s due diligence, legal and other expenses
incurred in connection with the entering into of this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements and
all related matters. All amounts required to be paid under this Section 5(b)(i) will be paid on
the Closing Date.



(ii) Overadvance Payment. Without affecting Lender’s rights hereunder in the event
the Loans exceed the Formula Amount and such excess is not a Permitted Overadvance (each such
event, an “Unpermitted Overadvance”), the amounts which the Unpermitted Overadvance exceeds
the Formula Amount (the “Overadvance Amount”) all such Overadvances shall bear additional interest
at a rate equal to two percent (2%) per annum for all times that the Overadvance Amount shall be
in excess of the Formula Amount. All interest amounts that are incurred pursuant to this Section
5(b)(ii) shall be due and payable by the Companies monthly, in arrears, on the first business day
of each calendar month and upon expiration of the Term.



(iii) Financial Information Default. Without affecting Lender’s other rights and
remedies, in the event any Company fails to deliver the financial information required by Section

failure until such failure is cured to Lender’s satisfaction or waived in writing by Lender. All
amounts that are incurred pursuant to this Section 5(b)(iii) shall be due and payable by the

the Term.

irrevocable, non-exclusive license (exercisable only during the continuance of an Event of Default
without payment of royalty or other compensation to such Company) to use, transfer, license or
sublicense any Intellectual Property now owned, licensed to, or hereafter acquired by such

Intellectual Property to which the Companies do not have the right to sublicense; and provided
that such license or other transfer will terminate on the termination of this Agreement and the
payment in full of all Obligations under the Note.



7. Representations, Warranties and Covenants Concerning the Collateral. Each Company
represents, warrants (each of which such representations and warranties shall be deemed to be true

in said Schedule, have been delivered to Lender in duly executed form) constitute valid perfected
security interests in all of the Collateral in favor of Lender as security for the prompt and

agreement entered into in connection with any other transaction entered into by and between Lender
and any Company (and/or Subsidiaries or Affiliates of any Company), Lender shall not acquire stock
in the Parent (including, without limitation, pursuant to a contract to purchase, by exercising an
option or warrant, by converting any other security or instrument, by acquiring or exercising any
other right to acquire, shares of stock or other security convertible into shares of stock in the
Parent, or otherwise, and such options, warrants, conversion or other rights shall not be
exercisable) to the extent such stock acquisition would cause any interest (including any original
issue discount) payable by any Company to Lender not to qualify as portfolio interest (to the
extent a portfolio interest exemption is otherwise available to Lender), within the meaning of
Section 881(c)(2) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) by reason
of Section 881(c)(3) of the Code, taking into account



 


32









 






the constructive ownership rules under Section 871(h)(3)(C) of the Code (the “Stock
Acquisition Limitation”). The Stock Acquisition Limitation shall automatically become null
and void without any notice to any Company upon the earlier to occur of the existence of an Event
of Default at a time when the average closing price of the Common Stock as reported by Bloomberg,
L.P. on the Principal Market for the immediately preceding five trading days is greater than or
equal to 200% of the Exercise Price (as defined in the Warrants).



16. Power of Attorney. Each Company hereby appoints Lender, or any other Person whom
Lender may designate as such Company’s attorney, with power to: (a)(i) execute any security
related documentation on such Company’s behalf and to supply any omitted information and correct
patent errors in any documents executed by such Company or on such Company’s behalf; (ii) to file
financing statements against such Company covering the Collateral (and, in connection with the
filing of any such financing statements, describe the Collateral as “all assets and all personal
property, whether now owned and/or hereafter acquired” (or any substantially similar variation
thereof)); (iii) sign such Company’s name on any invoice or bill of lading relating to any
Accounts, drafts against Account Debtors, schedules and assignments of Accounts, notices of
assignment, financing statements and other public records, verifications of Account and notices to
or from Account Debtors; and (iv) to do all other things Lender deems necessary to carry out the
terms of Section 6 of this Security Agreement and (b) upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default; (v) endorse such Company’s name on any checks, notes,
acceptances, money orders, drafts or other forms of payment or security that may come into Lender’s
possession; (vi) verify the validity, amount or any other matter relating to any Account by mail,
telephone, telegraph or otherwise with Account Debtors; (vii) do all other things necessary to
carry out this Agreement, any Ancillary Agreement and all related documents; and (viii) notify the
post office authorities to change the address for delivery of such Company’s mail to an address
designated by Lender, and to receive, open and dispose of all mail addressed to such Company. Each
Company hereby ratifies and approves all acts of the attorney. Neither Lender, nor the attorney
will be liable for any acts or omissions or for any error of judgment or mistake of fact or law,
except for gross negligence or willful misconduct. This power, being coupled with an interest, is
irrevocable so long as Lender has a security interest and until the Obligations have been fully
satisfied.



17. Term of Agreement. Lender’s agreement to make Loans and extend financial
accommodations under and in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement
shall continue in full force and effect until the expiration of the Term. At Lender’s election
following the occurrence of an Event of Default, Lender may terminate this Agreement. The
termination of the Agreement shall not affect any of Lender’s rights hereunder or any Ancillary
Agreement and the provisions hereof and thereof shall continue to be fully operative until all
transactions entered into, rights or interests created and the Obligations have been irrevocably
disposed of, concluded or liquidated. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lender shall release its
security interests at any time after thirty (30) days notice upon irrevocable payment to it of all
Obligations if each Company shall have provided Lender with an executed release of any and all
claims which such Company may have or thereafter have under this Agreement and all Ancillary
Agreements.


 


33









 





18. Termination of Lien. The Liens and rights granted to Lender hereunder and any
Ancillary Agreements and the financing statements filed in connection herewith or
therewith shall continue in full force and effect, notwithstanding the termination of this
Agreement or the fact that any Company’s account may from time to time be temporarily in a zero or
credit position, until all of the Obligations under the Note have been indefeasibly paid or
performed in full and this Agreement has been terminated in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement. Lender shall not be required to send termination statements to any Company, or to file
them with any filing office, unless and until this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements (other
than the Warrant or the Registration Rights Agreement) shall have been terminated in accordance
with their terms and all Obligations indefeasibly paid in full in immediately available funds.



19. Events of Default. The occurrence of any of the following shall constitute an
“Event of Default”:



(a) Failure by any Company to make payment of any of the monetary Obligations when required
hereunder, and, in any such case, such failure shall continue for a period of five (5) business
days following the date upon which any such payment was due;



(b) failure by any Company or Holdings to pay any material amount of taxes when due unless
such taxes are being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and with respect to which
adequate reserves have been provided on such Company’s and/or such Eligible Subsidiary’s books;

any material respect, this Agreement or any covenant contained herein in any material respect,

occurrence thereof;



(d) any representation, warranty or statement made by any Company, Holdings or any of its
Eligible Subsidiaries hereunder, in any Ancillary Agreement (other than the Registration Rights
Agreement) should prove to be false or misleading in any material respect on the date as of which
made or deemed made pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or such Ancillary Agreement;



(e) the occurrence of any material default (or similar term) in the observance or performance
of any other agreement or condition relating to any indebtedness or contingent obligation of any
Company or Holdings beyond the period of grace (if any), that is not waived by the other party to
such agreement or condition, the effect of which default is to cause, or permit the holder or
holders of such indebtedness or beneficiary or beneficiaries of such contingent obligation to
cause, such indebtedness to become due prior to its stated maturity or such contingent obligation
to become payable;



(f) attachments or levies in excess of $500,000 in the aggregate are made upon any Company’s
or Holdings’ assets or a judgment is rendered against any of the property of the Company or
Holdings involving a liability of more than $500,000 which shall not have been paid, vacated,
discharged, stayed or bonded within thirty (30) days from the entry thereof;



(g) any change in any material Company’s or any of its material Eligible Subsidiary’s
condition or affairs (financial or otherwise) which in Lender’s reasonable, good
faith opinion, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect any Lien
created hereunder or under any Ancillary Agreement for any reason ceases to be or is not a valid
and perfected Lien and any Lien that had a first priority interest for any reason ceases to have a
first priority interest;


 


34









 





(h) any Company or Holdings shall (i) apply for, consent to or suffer to exist the
appointment of, or the taking of possession by, a receiver, custodian, trustee or liquidator of
itself or of all or a substantial part of its property, (ii) make a general assignment for the
benefit of creditors, (iii) commence a voluntary case under the federal bankruptcy laws (as now or

(i) any Company or Holdings shall admit in writing its inability, or be generally unable, to
pay its debts as they become due or cease operations of its present business;



(j) any Company or Holdings directly or indirectly sells, assigns, transfers, conveys, or
suffers or permits to occur any sale, assignment, transfer or conveyance of any Collateral of such
Company or Holdings or any interest therein, other than assignments, transfers or conveyances of
Intellectual Property or interests therein in the ordinary course of business that do not
materially impair the security interests granted to the Lender pursuant to the IP Security
Agreement, except as permitted herein;



(k) A Change of Control (as defined below) shall occur with respect to any Company, unless
Lender shall have expressly consented to such Change of Control in writing. A “Change of Control”
shall mean (i) any “Person” or “group” (as such terms are defined in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of
the Exchange Act, as in effect on the date hereof), other than the Holder, is or becomes the
“beneficial owner” (as defined in Rules 13(d)-3 and 13(d)-5 under the Exchange Act), directly or
indirectly, of more than 50% on a fully diluted basis of the then outstanding voting equity
interest of the Parent, or (ii) the consolidation, merger or other business combination of such
Company with or into any other entity, immediately following which the prior stockholders of the
Company fail to own, directly or indirectly, at least fifty-one percent (51%) of the surviving
entity; (iii) the Board of Directors of the Parent shall cease to consist of a majority of the
Board of Directors of the Parent on the date hereof (or directors appointed by a majority of the
board of directors in effect immediately prior to such appointment) or (iv) the Parent or any of
its Eligible Subsidiaries merges or consolidates with, or sells all or substantially all of its
assets to, any other person or entity. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a “Change of Control” shall
not be deemed to have occurred if (X) (i) any Company enters into a consolidation, merger, share
exchange or other business combination with an affiliate or subsidiary of the Company reasonably
acceptable to Lender; (ii) the surviving entity assumes all of the obligations of such Company
under this Security Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements; and (iii) after assuming all of the
obligations under the Security Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements, the surviving entity is and
would be Solvent until
such obligations are paid in full or otherwise discharged or (Y) the Parent consummates the
ADSX Merger substantially in accordance with the terms in the ADSX Agreement;


 


35









 





(l) the indictment of any Company or any of its Eligible Subsidiaries or Holdings or any
executive officer of any Company or any of its Eligible Subsidiaries or Holdings for a felony
under any criminal statute, or commencement of criminal or civil proceeding against any Company or
any of its Eligible Subsidiaries or Holdings or any executive officer of any Company or any of its
Eligible Subsidiaries or Holdings pursuant to which statute or proceeding penalties or remedies
reasonably available include forfeiture of any of a material portion of the property of any
Company or any of its Eligible Subsidiaries or Holdings;



(m) an Event of Default shall occur under and as defined in the Note or in any other
Ancillary Agreement (other than the Registration Rights Agreement);



(n) any Company or Holdings shall breach any term or provision of any Ancillary Agreement to
which it is a party (other than the Registration Rights Agreement), in any material respect which
breach, if capable of cure, is not cured within the time frame specified therein, if any, and if
not within fifteen (15) days after the occurrence thereof, provided that such 15-day period does
not have a material adverse effect on Lender’s rights and remedies hereunder or thereunder.



(o) any proceeding shall be brought by any Company or any of its Eligible Subsidiaries or
Holdings attempting to terminate, challenges the validity of, or its liability under this
Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, or any proceeding shall be brought to challenge the
validity, binding effect of any Ancillary Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement ceases to be a
valid, binding and enforceable obligation of such Company or any of its Eligible Subsidiaries or
Holdings (to the extent such Persons are a party thereto);



(p) the occurrence of an Event of Default under and as defined in (1) the Secured Term Note,
issued as of the date hereof by Applied Digital Solutions, Inc. (“ADSX”) to the Lender pursuant to
the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement, dated as of the date hereof by and between ADSX
and the Lender (as amended, modified and/or supplemented from time to time, the Purchase
Agreement) and/or (2) any Related Agreement referred to in the Purchase Agreement (other than the
Registration Rights Agreement) and such Event of Default, if capable of cure continues unremedied
for a period of five (5) days after the occurrence thereof.




(q) Holdings shall breach any term or provision of the Mortgage in any material respect
which breach, if capable of cure, is not cured within the time frame specified therein.



20. Remedies. Following the occurrence of an Event of Default, Lender shall have the
right to demand repayment in full of all Obligations, whether or not otherwise due. Until all
Obligations have been fully and indefeasibly satisfied, Lender shall retain its Lien in all
Collateral. Lender shall have, in addition to all other rights provided herein and in each
Ancillary Agreement, the rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC, and under other



 


36









 






applicable law, all other legal and equitable rights to which Lender may be entitled,
including the right to take immediate possession of the Collateral, to require each Company to
assemble the Collateral, at Companies’ joint and several expense, and to make it available to
Lender at a place designated by Lender which is reasonably convenient to both parties and to enter
any of the premises of any Company or wherever the Collateral shall be located, with or without
force or process of law, and to keep and store the same on said premises until sold (and if said
premises be the property of any Company, such Company agrees not to charge Lender for storage
thereof), and the right to apply for the appointment of a receiver for such Company’s property.
Further, Lender may, at any time or times after the occurrence of an Event of Default, sell and
deliver all Collateral held by or for Lender at public or private sale for cash, upon credit or
otherwise, at such prices and upon such terms as Lender, in Lender’s sole discretion, deems
advisable or Lender may otherwise recover upon the Collateral in any commercially reasonable manner
as Lender, in its sole discretion, deems advisable. The requirement of reasonable notice shall be
met if such notice is mailed postage prepaid to Company Agent at Company Agent’s address as shown
in Lender’s records, at least ten (10) days before the time of the event of which notice is being
given. Lender may be the purchaser at any sale, if it is public. In connection with the exercise
of the foregoing remedies, Lender is granted permission to use all of each Company’s Intellectual
Property. The proceeds of sale shall be applied first to all costs and expenses of sale, including
attorneys’ fees, and second to the payment (in whatever order Lender elects) of all Obligations.
After the indefeasible payment and satisfaction in full of all of the Obligations, and after the
payment by Lender of any other amount required by any provision of law, including Section
9-608(a)(1) of the UCC (but only after Lender has received what Lender considers reasonable proof
of a subordinate party’s security interest), the surplus, if any, shall be paid to Company Agent
(for the benefit of the applicable Companies) or its representatives or to whosoever may be
lawfully entitled to receive the same, or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct. The
Companies shall remain jointly and severally liable to Lender for any deficiency. Each Company and
Lender acknowledge that the actual damages that would be incurred by Lender after the occurrence of
an Event of Default would be difficult to quantify and that such Company and Lender have agreed
that the fees and obligations set forth in this Section and in this Agreement would constitute fair
and appropriate liquidated damages in the event of any such termination. The parties hereto each
hereby agree that the exercise by any party hereto of any right granted to it or the exercise by
any party hereto of any remedy available to it (including, without limitation, the issuance of a
notice of redemption, a borrowing request and/or a notice of default), in each case, hereunder or
under any Ancillary Agreement shall not constitute confidential information and no party shall have
any duty to the other party to maintain such information as confidential.



21. Waivers. To the full extent permitted by applicable law, each Company hereby
waives (a) presentment, demand and protest, and notice of presentment, dishonor, intent to
accelerate, acceleration, protest, default, nonpayment, maturity, release, compromise, settlement,
extension or renewal of any or all of this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements or any other
notes, commercial paper, Accounts, contracts, Documents, Instruments, Chattel Paper and guaranties
at any time held by Lender on which such Company may in any way be liable, and hereby ratifies and
confirms whatever Lender may do in this regard; (b) all rights to notice and a hearing prior to
Lender’s taking possession or control of, or to Lender’s replevy, attachment or levy upon, any
Collateral or any bond or security that might be required by any court prior to allowing Lender to
exercise any of its remedies; and (c) the benefit of all valuation,
appraisal and exemption laws. Each Company acknowledges that it has been advised by counsel
of its choices and decisions with respect to this Agreement, the Ancillary Agreements and the
transactions evidenced hereby and thereby.


 


37









 





22. Expenses. The Companies shall jointly and severally pay Lender, less any amounts
paid to Lender by Applied Digital, (i) due diligence fees of $20,000 plus any prior approved out-of
pocket costs of any reasonably required third-party appraisers or other extraordinary diligence
costs associated with the preparation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the Ancillary
Agreements and (ii) structuring fees of $40,000, and shall pay directly to Lender’s outside
counsel, if any, all reasonable fees and disbursements of such outside counsel, in connection with
the preparation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements. The
Companies shall jointly and severally pay all of Lender’s out-of-pocket costs and expenses,
including reasonable fees and disbursements of outside counsel and appraisers, in connection with
the prosecution or defense of any action, contest, dispute, suit or proceeding concerning any
matter in any way arising out of, related to or connected with this Agreement or any Ancillary
Agreement. The Companies shall also jointly and severally pay all of Lender’s reasonable fees,
charges, out-of-pocket costs and expenses, including fees and disbursements of counsel and
appraisers, in connection with (a) the preparation, execution and delivery of any waiver, any
amendment thereto or consent proposed or executed in connection with the transactions contemplated
by this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements, (b) Lender’s obtaining performance of the
Obligations under this Agreement and any Ancillary Agreements, including, but not limited to, the
enforcement or defense of Lender’s security interests, assignments of rights and Liens hereunder as
valid perfected security interests, (c) any attempt to inspect, verify, protect, collect, sell,
liquidate or otherwise dispose of any Collateral, (d) any appraisals or re-appraisals of any
property (real or personal) pledged to Lender by any Company or any of its Eligible Subsidiaries as
Collateral for, or any other Person as security for, the Obligations hereunder and (e) any
consultations in connection with any of the foregoing. The Companies shall also jointly and
severally pay Lender’s customary bank charges for all bank services (including wire transfers)
performed or caused to be performed by Lender for any Company or any of its Eligible Subsidiaries
at any Company’s or such Eligible Subsidiary’s request or in connection with any Company’s loan
account with Lender. All such costs and expenses together with all filing, recording and search
fees, taxes and interest payable by the Companies to Lender shall be payable on demand and shall be
secured by the Collateral. If any tax by any Governmental Authority is or may be imposed on or as
a result of any transaction between any Company and/or any Eligible Subsidiary thereof, on the one
hand, and Lender on the other hand, which Lender is or may be required to withhold or pay
(including, without limitation, as a result of a breach by any Company or any of its Eligible
Subsidiaries of Section 13(u) herein), the Companies hereby jointly and severally indemnifies and
holds Lender harmless in respect of such taxes, and the Companies will repay to Lender the amount
of any such taxes which shall be charged to the Companies’ account; and until the Companies shall
furnish Lender with indemnity therefor (or supply Lender with evidence satisfactory to it that due
provision for the payment thereof has been made), Lender may hold without interest any balance
standing to each Company’s credit and Lender shall retain its Liens in any and all Collateral.


 


38









 





23. Assignment. Upon notice to the Company Agent, Lender may assign any or all of the
Obligations together with any or all of the security therefor to any Person and any
such assignee shall succeed to all of Lender’s rights with respect thereto; provided that
Lender shall not be permitted to effect any such assignment to a competitor of any Company unless
an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no notice shall
be required to the Parent, the Companies or to Company Agent in the event that such assignment is
to a party that is an affiliate, or under common control with, Lender. Upon such assignment,
Lender shall be released from all responsibility for the Collateral to the extent same is assigned
to any transferee. Lender may from time to time sell or otherwise grant participations in any of
the Obligations and the holder of any such participation shall, subject to the terms of any
agreement between Lender and such holder, be entitled to the same benefits as Lender with respect
to any security for the Obligations in which such holder is a participant. Each Company agrees
that each such holder may exercise any and all rights of banker’s lien, set-off and counterclaim
with respect to its participation in the Obligations as fully as though such Company were directly
indebted to such holder in the amount of such participation. No Company may assign any of its
rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of Lender. All of the terms,
conditions, promises, covenants, provisions and warranties of this Agreement shall inure to the
benefit of each of the undersigned, and shall bind the representatives, successors and permitted
assigns of each Company.



24. No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. Failure by Lender to exercise any right, remedy
or option under this Agreement, any Ancillary Agreement or any supplement hereto or thereto or any
other agreement between or among any Company and Lender or delay by Lender in exercising the same,
will not operate as a waiver; no waiver by Lender will be effective unless it is in writing and
then only to the extent specifically stated. Lender’s rights and remedies under this Agreement and
the Ancillary Agreements will be cumulative and not exclusive of any other right or remedy which
Lender may have.



25. Application of Payments. Each Company irrevocably waives the right to direct the
application of any and all payments at any time or times hereafter received by Lender from or on
such Company’s behalf and each Company hereby irrevocably agrees that Lender shall have the
continuing exclusive right to apply and reapply any and all payments received at any time or times
hereafter against the Obligations hereunder in such manner as Lender may deem advisable
notwithstanding any entry by Lender upon any of Lender’s books and records.



26. Indemnity. Each Company hereby jointly and severally indemnifies and holds
Lender, and its respective affiliates, employees, attorneys and agents (each, an “Indemnified
Person”), harmless from and against any and all suits, actions, proceedings, claims, damages,
losses, liabilities and expenses of any kind or nature whatsoever (including attorneys’ fees and
disbursements and other costs of investigation or defense, including those incurred upon any
appeal) which may be instituted or asserted against or incurred by any such Indemnified Person as
the result of credit having been extended, suspended or terminated under this Agreement or any of
the Ancillary Agreements or with respect to the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance and
administration of, or in any other way arising out of or relating to, this Agreement, the Ancillary
Agreements or any other documents or transactions contemplated by or referred to herein or therein
and any actions or failures to act with respect to any of the foregoing, except to the extent that
any such indemnified liability is finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to have
resulted solely from such Indemnified Person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. NO
INDEMNIFIED PERSON SHALL BE RESPONSIBLE
OR LIABLE TO ANY COMPANY OR TO ANY OTHER PARTY OR TO ANY SUCCESSOR, ASSIGNEE OR THIRD PARTY
BENEFICIARY OR ANY OTHER PERSON ASSERTING CLAIMS DERIVATIVELY THROUGH SUCH PARTY, FOR INDIRECT,
PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES WHICH MAY BE ALLEGED AS A RESULT OF CREDIT HAVING BEEN
EXTENDED, SUSPENDED OR TERMINATED UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY ANCILLARY AGREEMENT OR AS A RESULT OF
ANY OTHER TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREUNDER OR THEREUNDER.


 


39









 





27. Revival. The Companies further agree that to the extent any Company makes a
payment or payments to Lender, which payment or payments or any part thereof are subsequently
invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside and/or required to be repaid to a
trustee, receiver or any other party under any bankruptcy act, state or federal law, common law or
equitable cause, then, to the extent of such payment or repayment, the obligation or part thereof
intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if said payment
had not been made.




28. Borrowing Agency Provisions.



(a) Each Company hereby irrevocably designates Company Agent to be its attorney and agent and
in such capacity to borrow, sign and endorse notes, and execute and deliver all instruments,
documents, writings and further assurances now or hereafter required hereunder, on behalf of such
Company, and hereby authorizes Lender to pay over or credit all loan proceeds hereunder in
accordance with the request of Company Agent.



(b) The handling of this credit facility as a co-borrowing facility with a borrowing agent in
the manner set forth in this Agreement is solely as an accommodation to the Companies and at their
request. Lender shall not incur any liability to any Company as a result thereof. To induce
Lender to do so and in consideration thereof, each Company hereby indemnifies Lender and holds
Lender harmless from and against any and all liabilities, expenses, losses, damages and claims of
damage or injury asserted against Lender by any Person arising from or incurred by reason of the
handling of the financing arrangements of the Companies as provided herein, reliance by Lender on
any request or instruction from Company Agent or any other action taken by Lender with respect to
this Paragraph 28.



(c) All Obligations shall be joint and several, and the Companies shall make payment upon the
maturity of the Obligations by acceleration or otherwise, and such obligation and liability on the
part of the Companies shall in no way be affected by any extensions, renewals and forbearance
granted by Lender to any Company, failure of Lender to give any Company notice of borrowing or any
other notice, any failure of Lender to pursue to preserve its rights against any Company, the
release by Lender of any Collateral now or thereafter acquired from any Company, and such
agreement by any Company to pay upon any notice issued pursuant thereto is unconditional and
unaffected by prior recourse by Lender to any Company or any Collateral for such Company’s
Obligations or the lack thereof.



(d) Each Company expressly waives any and all rights of subrogation, reimbursement,
indemnity, exoneration, contribution or any other claim which such Company
may now or hereafter have against the other or other Person directly or contingently liable
for the Obligations, or against or with respect to any other’s property (including, without
limitation, any property which is Collateral for the Obligations), arising from the existence or
performance of this Agreement, until all Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full and this
Agreement has been irrevocably terminated.


 


40









 





(e) Each Company represents and warrants to Lender that (i) Companies have one or more common
shareholders, directors and officers, (ii) the businesses and corporate activities of Companies
are closely related to, and substantially benefit, the business and corporate activities of
Companies, (iii) the financial and other operations of Companies are performed on a combined basis
as if Companies constituted a consolidated corporate group, (iv) Companies will receive a
substantial economic benefit from entering into this Agreement and will receive a substantial
economic benefit from the application of each Loan hereunder, in each case, whether or not such
amount is used directly by any Company and (v) all requests for Loans hereunder by the Company
Agent are for the exclusive and indivisible benefit of the Companies as though, for purposes of
this Agreement, the Companies constituted a single entity.



29. Notices. Any notice or request hereunder may be given to any Company, Company
Agent or Lender at the respective addresses set forth below or as may hereafter be specified in a
notice designated as a change of address under this Section. Any notice or request hereunder shall

(a) THIS AGREEMENT AND THE ANCILLARY AGREEMENTS SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED AND
ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK APPLICABLE TO CONTRACTS MADE AND
PERFORMED IN SUCH STATE, WITHOUT REGARD TO PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAW.



(b) EACH COMPANY AND HOLDINGS HEREBY CONSENTS AND AGREES THAT THE STATE OR FEDERAL COURTS
LOCATED IN THE COUNTY OF NEW YORK, STATE OF NEW YORK SHALL HAVE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION TO HEAR AND
DETERMINE ANY CLAIMS OR DISPUTES BETWEEN ANY COMPANY, ON THE ONE HAND, AND LENDER, ON THE OTHER
HAND, PERTAINING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE ANCILLARY AGREEMENTS OR TO ANY MATTER ARISING OUT
OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE ANCILLARY AGREEMENTS; PROVIDED, THAT LENDER
AND EACH COMPANY AND HOLDINGS ACKNOWLEDGE THAT ANY APPEALS FROM THOSE COURTS MAY HAVE TO BE HEARD
BY A COURT LOCATED OUTSIDE OF THE COUNTY OF NEW YORK, STATE OF NEW YORK; AND FURTHER
PROVIDED, THAT NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE DEEMED OR OPERATE TO PRECLUDE LENDER
FROM BRINGING SUIT OR TAKING OTHER LEGAL ACTION IN ANY OTHER JURISDICTION TO COLLECT THE
OBLIGATIONS, TO REALIZE ON THE COLLATERAL OR ANY OTHER SECURITY FOR THE OBLIGATIONS, OR TO ENFORCE
A JUDGMENT OR OTHER COURT ORDER IN FAVOR OF LENDER. EACH COMPANY AND HOLDINGS EXPRESSLY SUBMITS
