Exhibit 10.66

SECURITY AGREEMENT

This is a Security Agreement (the “Security Agreement”), dated January 11, 2012 between VeriTeQ Acquisition Corporation, a Florida corporation (“Debtor”), and PositiveID Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Secured Party”).

BACKGROUND

Debtor has issued to the Secured Party a promissory note, pursuant to the terms of that certain Stock Purchase Agreement, dated January 11, 2012, between the Secured Party and Debtor (the “Stock Purchase Agreement”), in the principal amount of Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($200,000.00) (the “Note”).  Pursuant to the terms herein, this Security Agreement secures the obligation of Debtor to satisfy Debtor’s obligations under the Note. Accordingly, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements set forth below, the parties agree as follows:

TERMS

1.

Grant of Security Interest.  

a.

For good and valuable consideration received, the sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged and agreed, in order to secure Debtor’s (a) performance under the Note and (b) payment of all costs and expenses, including attorney’s fees, incurred in connection with realizing the value of the security provided by this Security Agreement following an Event of Default (as defined herein) (collectively, the “Liabilities”), Debtor grants to the Secured Party a first lien and first priority security interest (the “Security Interest”) in all of Debtor’s assets, including, but not limited to, collateral, accounts receivable, chattel paper, instruments, documents, inventory, equipment, general intangibles, intellectual property, and all other present and future tangible and intangible property of Debtor, whether now owned or existing or hereafter acquired or arising, including additions, accessions and substitutions thereof, all proceeds of any proceeds wherever located, and all cash and non-cash proceeds and products thereof (collectively, the “Collateral”).  This Security Interest given to Secured Party shall also attach to all replacements and proceeds and all proceeds of any sale or transfers of the Collateral.

b.

 Notwithstanding the grant by Debtor to Secured Party of a Security Interest in the Collateral as noted above, Secured Party agrees, after being requested therefore, to not unreasonably withhold consent to the subordination of its Security Interest in the Collateral to the rights of any bank, potential investor, or other financing source who makes available to Debtor a loan or lending facility which includes the Collateral as part of the security securing that loan.  Such subordination will include Secured Party taking no action to enforce its Security Interest with regard to such Collateral unless and until the lender has taken action to enforce its first lien with regard to such security or in the event Debtor declares bankruptcy.  Secured Party further agrees that its first perfected lien will be second in priority to the lien of the lender and agrees to promptly execute a document mutually acceptable to Secured Party and the lender reflecting such subordination.

2.

Assurances; Covenants.  Debtor hereby agrees that:

a.

 (i) The Collateral is and will be free of all liens and security interests of every kind and nature, except as may be in effect on the date hereof or have been the result of actions of the Secured Party; (ii) Debtor will not assign, transfer, sell, convey, hypothecate, pledge, or in any other way dispose of or encumber the Collateral while this Security Agreement is in effect; and (iii) Debtor will warrant and defend the Collateral and the Secured Party’s Security Interest against the claims and demands of all persons.

b.

Debtor will not, without the prior written consent of the Secured Party, borrow from anyone on the security of the Collateral, or otherwise permit any liens, encumbrances, security interests, or adverse claims against the Collateral, and will not permit the Collateral to be levied upon under any legal process.  

c.

Debtor authorizes the Secured Party to file financing statements, including amendments or continuations thereof, describing the Collateral, and from time to time at the request of the Secured Party, will execute such other documents, and will do such other acts and things, all as the Secured Party may reasonably request, to establish and maintain a valid first, perfected security interest in the Collateral and to enable the Secured Party to enforce its rights and remedies hereunder with respect to the Collateral.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Debtor agrees to file the financing statement describing the Collateral and perfecting Secured Party’s Security Interest promptly following the execution of this Security Agreement with the appropriate state recording officer.  Debtor shall deliver to the Secured Party filed marked and date stamped copies of the financing statements within three (3) calendar days from the day Debtor receives them from the state recording office.

(i)

Enforce Debtor’s rights against account debtors and notify any and all account debtors or other parties against which Debtor has a claim under the Collateral that such Collateral has been assigned by Debtor and that the Secured Party has a security interest therein and, if desired by the Secured Party, that all payments should be made to the Secured Party;






3

b.

Upon the occurrence or continuation of an Event of Default: 

(i)

the Secured Party may require Debtor, at Debtor’s expense, to marshal and assemble the Collateral and make it available to the Secured Party at a place to be designated by the Secured Party, which is reasonable and convenient to all parties.

(ii)

Secured Party may, with or without judicial process, sell, lease or otherwise dispose of, in a commercially reasonable manner, any or all of the collateral at public or private sale or proceedings, by one or more contracts, in one or more parcels, at the same or different times and places, with or without having the Collateral at the place of sale or other disposition, to such persons or entities, for cash or credit or for future delivery, and upon such other terms, as Secured Party may in its discretion deem best in each such matter.  The purchaser of any of the Collateral at any such sale shall hold the same free of any equity of redemption or other right or claim of Debtor all of which, together with all rights of stay, exemption or appraisal under any statute or other law now or hereafter in effect, Debtor hereby unconditionally waives to the fullest extent permitted by law.  If any of the collateral is sold on credit or for future delivery, Secured Party shall not be liable for the failure of the purchaser to pay for same and, in the event of such failure, Secured Party may resell such Collateral.

Debtor hereby further agrees that notice of the time after which any private sale or other intended disposition or action relating to any of the Collateral is to be made or taken, shall be deemed commercially reasonable notice thereof, and shall satisfy the requirements of any applicable statute or other law, if such notice is delivered or mailed not less than five (5) business days prior to the date of the sale, disposition or other action to which the notice is related.  Secured Party shall not be obligated to make any sale or other disposition or take other action pursuant to such notice and may, without other notice or publication, adjourn or postpone any public or private sale or other disposition or action by announcement at the time and place fixed therefor, and such sale, disposition or action may be held or accomplished at any time or place to which the same may be so adjourned or postponed.

Secured Party may at its discretion retain any or all of the Collateral and apply the retained Collateral in satisfaction of part or all of the Note.

(v)

Any cash proceeds of sale, lease or other disposition of Collateral shall be applied as follows:

First:   To the expenses of collecting, enforcing, safeguarding, holding and disposing of Collateral, and to other expenses of Secured Party in connection with the enforcement of this Security Agreement or any other documents including, without limitation, court costs and the fees of attorneys, accountants and appraisers;

Second:   Any surplus then remaining to the payment of interest and then principal of the Note, in such order as Secured Party elects; and

Third:   Any surplus then remaining to Debtor or whomever may be lawfully entitled thereto.

c.

The net proceeds realized by the Secured Party upon a sale or other disposition of the Collateral, or any part thereof, after deduction of the expenses of retaking, holding, preparing for sale, selling or the like, and reasonable attorneys’ fees and other expenses incurred by the Secured Party, shall be applied to payment of (or held as a reserve against) the Liabilities, whether or not then due, and in such order of application as the Secured Party may from time to time elect.

7.

This Security Agreement and the Security Interest granted pursuant to this Security Agreement shall immediately terminate when the Note and any accrued but unpaid interest thereon has been paid in full.
