    SECURITY AGREEMENT AND
FIXTURE FILING

     

    THIS DEED
OF TRUST, ASSIGNMENT OF RENTS AND LEASES, SECURITY AGREEMENT AND FIXTURE FILING
("Security
Instrument") is
made as of this 16th day of
July, 2008 by Valcent Manufacturing, Ltd., a Texas limited partnership, as
Grantor ("Borrower"), to Deborah P. Everett,
Trustee ("Trustee"), for the benefit of
Platinum Long Term Growth VI, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, as
Agent (for the benefit of the Lenders (as defined below)), as Beneficiary
(together with its successors and assigns, "Agent").

    


    BACKGROUND

     

    Pursuant
to the Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement, dated as of July 16, 2008 (the "Note
Purchase Agreement"), between Valcent
Products, Inc. ("Valcent"), as issuer of the Note
(defined below), and the Agent and other purchasers named therein (the Agent and
the purchasers are collectively referred to as the "Lenders"), the Lenders are making a
loan to Valcent in the maximum principal amount of $2,428,166 (the "Valcent
Loan"). The
obligations of Valcent to the Lenders will be evidenced by one or more
promissory notes of even date herewith in the original aggregate principal
amount of the Valcent Loan and are referred to herein collectively as the "Note". Borrower, pursuant to
the Guaranty, dated on or about the date hereof (the "Guaranty"), has unconditionally
guaranteed the obligations of Valcent under the Note and the other Transaction
Documents (as defined in the Note Purchase Agreement). The obligations of the
Borrower under the Guaranty are referred to herein as the "Guaranteed Obligations". Borrower desires to
secure payment and performance of Borrower's Guaranteed Obligations in respect
of the Guaranty, the Note and the Valcent Loan by granting to Agent for itself
and for the benefit of the Lenders, the security described in this Security
Instrument. The Borrower is a subsidiary of Valcent and the Lenders would not
make the Valcent Loan unless the Borrower executed and delivered this Security
Instrument to the Agent for the benefit of the Lenders.

     

    NOW,
THEREFORE, to induce Lenders to make the Valcent Loan to Valcent, and for other
good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby
acknowledged, and intending to be legally bound hereby, Borrower agrees as
follows:

    2.03
Assignment of Leases
and Rents.

     

    (a)          Rights Granted to
Agent. Borrower hereby absolutely and unconditionally assigns to Agent
all of Borrower's right, title and interest in and to all current and future
Leases and Rents. Borrower hereby declares its intention to establish a present,
absolute and irrevocable transfer and assignment to Agent of all Rents and
Leases and to authorize and empower Agent to collect and receive all Rents and
exercise all of Borrower's rights under the Leases (including, without
limitation, the right to modify, extend or terminate any Lease) without any
further action by Borrower; it being intended that this assignment is effective
immediately and not an assignment made for security only, notwithstanding any
provision hereof to the contrary. For purposes of giving effect to this
assignment of Rents and Leases and for no other purpose, Rents and Leases shall
not be deemed to be part of the "Property" as that term is defined in Section 2.01 of this
Security Instrument. If, however, this assignment of Rents and Leases is not
enforceable by its terms under the laws of the State where the Property is
located, then Rents and Leases shall be included as part of the Property and it
is Borrower's intention that, in this circumstance, this Security Instrument
creates and perfects a lien of the Rents and Leases in favor of Agent, which
lien shall be effective as of the date of this Security Instrument.

     

    (b)          License to Borrower;
Revocation. Nevertheless, subject to the terms of this Security
Instrument and the Note Purchase Agreement, Agent grants to Borrower a revocable
license (i) to manage the leasing activities of the Property, and (ii) to
exercise all of Borrower's rights under the Leases. So long as no Event of
Default exists, the Rents remaining after application pursuant to the preceding
sentence may be retained by Borrower free and clear of, and released from,
Agent's rights with respect to Rents under this Security Instrument. From and
after the occurrence of an Event of Default, and without the necessity of notice
or prior demand or Agent's entering upon and taking and maintaining control of
the Property (whether directly or through a receiver), the license granted to
Borrower by this Section shall terminate automatically, and Agent shall be
entitled to receive and collect the Rents as they become due and payable and
exercise all of Borrower's rights or the rights of lessor under the Leases and
with respect to the Rent. Agent's right to revoke the license granted to
Borrower is in addition to all other rights and remedies available to Agent
following an Event of Default.

     

    (c)          No Obligations Assumed by
Agent. Neither the granting of this assignment to Agent, nor Agent's
exercise of any rights or remedies with respect to this assignment, shall be
construed (i) to make Agent a "mortgagee in possession" of the Property in the
absence of Agent itself taking actual possession of the Property or (ii) to
obligate Agent to take any action with respect to the Leases, including, without
limitation, the performance of any obligation to be performed on the part of
Borrower under any of the Leases, which shall remain exclusively with Borrower.
Without limiting the foregoing, this assignment shall not operate to place on
Agent any obligation or liability for: (i) the control, care, management or
repair of the Property; (ii) for carrying out any of the terms and conditions of
the Leases; (iii) any waste committed on the Property by tenants or any other
parties; (iv) any dangerous or defective
condition of the Property (including, without limitation, the presence of any
Hazardous Materials as defined in the Environmental Indemnity); or (v) any
negligence in the management, upkeep, repair or control of the Property
resulting in injury or death to any tenant or any other party or any loss of
personal property. Borrower, for itself and any party claiming under or through
Borrower, hereby releases and discharges Agent from any such liability to the
fullest extent permitted by law. Agent shall be obligated to account only for
Rents actually collected or received by Agent, and Agent shall not be liable for
any loss sustained by Borrower resulting from Agent's failure to lease the
Property after an Event of Default.

    2.04 Fixture
Filing. Certain of the Property is or will become "fixtures" (as that
term is defined in the UCC)

     

    On the
Land, and this Security Instrument upon being filed for record in the real
estate records of the city or county wherein such fixtures are situated, shall
operate also as a financing statement filed as a fixture filing in accordance
with the applicable provisions of the UCC upon such of the Property that is or
will become fixtures.

     

    2.05
Pledge of Monies
Held. Borrower hereby pledges to Agent, as security for the Obligations
and for the benefit of the Lenders, all money now or hereafter held by Agent in
escrow or reserve or on deposit pursuant to the terms hereof or pursuant to any
Transaction Document, until expended or applied as provided in this Security
Instrument or such other Transaction Document.

     

    2.06
Release of
Security. The grants, deed of trust, mortgage, liens, security interests,
assignments, pledges and transfers by this Security Instrument are subject to
the express condition that, if Borrower pays to Lenders the Debt at the time and

when and as required by the Guaranty and each other Transaction Documents, Agent
shall release the Property from the grants, deed of trust, mortgage, liens,
security interests, assignments, pledges and transfers created by this Security
Instrument and reconvey the Property to Borrower. Agent shall prepare (at
Borrower's expense) and deliver to Borrower such documents as are necessary to
effect such release and reconveyance.

and empowered by Borrower so to exercise, any or all of the remedies set forth

or conservator of the Property) or otherwise permitted by law or in
equity.

     

    6.03
Cumulative Remedies:,

or successively in Agent's sole discretion and as often as occasion therefor
shall arise. Agent's delay or failure to accelerate the Guaranteed Obligations
or exercise any other remedy upon the occurrence of an Event of Default shall

security held by it to payment of the Debt, in each case without prejudice to
its rights under this Security Instrument and without such action being deemed
an accord and satisfaction or a reinstatement of the Debt. Agent will not be
deemed as a consequence of its delay or failure to act, or any forbearances

    6.06
Continuing Lien:,
Right to Release Property. If less than all of the Property is, at any

releases any portion of the Property (for whatever consideration Agent deems
appropriate), this Security Instrument shall continue as a lien and security
interest on the remaining portion of the Property, unimpaired and without loss
of priority.

    TRUSTEE
PROVISIONS

     

    9.01
Trustee's Fees and
Expenses. Borrower shall pay all reasonable fees and expenses incurred by
Trustee for legal counsel and other professional advisors in connection with
Trustee's performance of its duties hereunder. Amounts incurred by Trustee shall
be deemed a part of the Debt secured by this Security Instrument and bear
interest at 18 percent if not paid in full within five (5) days after Trustee's
written demand for payment. Trustee hereby waives any statutory fee or
compensation for services rendered hereunder.

    


    9.02
Duties of
Trustee.

     

    (a)        
Trustee, by acceptance of this Security Instrument, covenants to perform and
fulfill the trusts and duties herein created and conferred upon Trustee.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Trustee agrees not to execute any of the powers
conferred upon Trustee hereunder, nor to take any action to protect or enforce
Agent's rights hereunder, nor to provide any interpretation of this Security
Instrument or any of the other Transaction Documents without Agent's prior
written consent thereto in each instance. Trustee, however, has an affirmative
duty to reasonably cooperate with Agent as Agent may require to protect the
Property and to enforce Agent's rights hereunder, but Trustee shall not be
obligated to institute or defend any suit in respect hereof or to perform any
act which would involve Trustee in any expense or liability unless, in each
case, properly indemnified to Trustee's reasonable satisfaction. Trustee also
has no duty to see to any recording, filing or registration of this Security
Instrument or any other instrument in addition or supplemental hereto, or to
give any notice thereof, or to see to the payment of, or be under any duty in
respect of, any tax or assessment or other governmental charge which may be
levied or assessed on the Property or against Borrower, or to see to the
performance or observance by Borrower of any of the covenants and agreements
contained herein. Trustee shall not be responsible for the sufficiency of the
security purported to be created hereby and makes no representation or warranty
in respect thereof or in respect of the rights of Agent.

     

     

    (b)          Trustee
shall not be liable for any error of judgment or act done by Trustee in good
faith or otherwise responsible or accountable under any circumstances whatsoever
(including Trustee's negligence), except for Trustee's gross negligence or
willful misconduct. Trustee has the right to advice of counsel upon any matters
arising hereunder and shall be fully protected in relying on the advice of
counsel. Trustee has the right to rely on any instrument, document or signature
authorizing or supporting any action taken or proposed to be taken by Trustee
hereunder, believed by Trustee in good faith to be genuine. Trustee shall not be
personally liable in case of entry upon the Property by Trustee, or anyone
entering by virtue of the powers herein granted to Trustee, or for liability or
damages incurred in the management or operation of the
Property.

    (c)          All
money received by Trustee with respect to the Debt and Obligations shall, until
used or applied as herein provided, be held in trust for
the purposes for which they were received, but need not be segregated in any
manner from any other moneys (except to the extent required by applicable law),
and Trustee shall be under no liability for interest on any moneys received by
Trustee hereunder.

     

    9.03
Resignation and
Substitution of Trustee.

     

    (a)          Trustee
may resign at any time upon written notice to Agent delivered not less than
thirty (30) days prior to the intended date of resignation. In the event of
Trustee's death, resignation, refusal to act, disqualification or other
inability to act, or if Agent shall deem it desirable to remove Trustee for any
reason with or without cause, Agent has the right, in its sole discretion, to
select and appoint a successor trustee (who may be Agent or an affiliate of
Agent if permitted by law), without application to court or compliance with any
formality other than appointment and designation in writing by Agent. If Agent
is a corporation or association and such appointment is executed in its behalf
by an officer of such corporation or association, such appointment shall be
conclusively presumed to be executed with authority and shall be valid and
sufficient without proof of any action by the board of directors or any superior
officer of the corporation or association.

     

    (b)          Any
successor appointed as Trustee shall, without further act, deed or conveyance,
become vested with all of the estates, properties, rights, powers, privileges,
immunities and duties herein conferred upon Trustee with like effect as if such
successor were originally named as trustee herein. Nevertheless, upon the
written request of Agent or of the successor as Trustee, the party ceasing to
act as Trustee shall execute and deliver an instrument, in recordable form,
transferring to such successor as Trustee, all of the estates, properties,
rights, powers, privileges, immunities and duties herein conferred upon Trustee
and shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor, in trust, any of
the property and money then held by the party ceasing to act as
Trustee.

     

    9.04
Multiple
Trustees. If more than one Trustee is appointed hereunder at any one
time, or from time to time, all rights granted to and all powers conferred upon
Trustee hereunder may be exercised by any or all of such Trustees, independently
or jointly. Action exercised by one Trustee shall be deemed valid and binding on
all Trustees.

    LOCAL LAW
PROVISIONS

     

    The
provisions set forth below control in the event of any conflict with the other
terms of this Security Instrument.

    


    10.01
Acceleration;
Remedies. At any time during the existence of an Event of Default, Agent,
at Agent's option, may declare the Debt to be immediately due and payable
without further demand, and may invoice the power of sale and any other remedies
permitted by Texas law or provided in this Security Instrument or in any other
Transaction Document. Borrower acknowledges that the power of sale granted in
this Security Instrument may be exercised by Agent without prior judicial
hearing. Agent shall be entitled to collect all reasonable costs and expenses
incurred in pursuing such remedies, including reasonable attorneys' fees, costs
of documentary evidence, abstracts and title reports.

     

    (a)          If
Agent invokes the power of sale, Agent may, by and through the Trustee, or
otherwise, sell or offer for sale the Property in such portions, order and
parcels as Agent may determine, with or without having first taken possession of
the Property, to the highest bidder at public auction. Such sale shall be made
at the courthouse door of the county in which all or any part of the Land to be
sold is situated (whether the parts or parcel, if any, situated in different
counties are contiguous or not, and without the necessity of having any Property
present at such sale) on the first Tuesday of any month between the hours of
10:00 A.M. and 4:00 P.M., after advertising the time, place and terms of sale
and that portion of the Property to be sold by posting or causing to be posted
written or printed notice of sale at least twenty-one (21) days before the date
of the sale at the courthouse door of the county in which the sale is to be made
and at the courthouse door of any other county in which a portion of the Land
may be situated, and by filing such notice with the County Clerk(s) of the
county(s) in which all or a portion of the Land may be situated, which notice
may be posted and filed by the Trustee acting, or by any person acting for the
Trustee, and Agent has, at least twenty-one (21) days before the date of the
sale, served written or printed notice of the proposed sale by certified mail on
each debtor obligated to pay the Debt according to Agent's records by the
deposit of such notice, enclosed in a postpaid wrapper, properly addressed to
such debtor at debtor's most recent address as shown by Agent's records, in a
post office or official depository under the care and custody of the United
States Postal Service. The affidavit of any person having knowledge of the facts
to the effect that such service was completed shall be prima facie evidence
of the fact of service.

    (b)          Trustee
shall deliver to the purchaser at the sale, within a reasonable time after the
sale, a deed conveying the Property so sold in fee simple with covenants of
special warranty. Borrower covenants and agrees to defend the purchaser's title
to the Property against all claims and demands, subject to the Permitted
Encumbrances and any other exceptions hereafter approved by Agent in writing.
The recitals in Trustee's deed shall be prima facie evidence
of the truth of the statements contained in those recitals. Trustee shall apply
the proceeds of the sale in the following order: (i) to all reasonable costs and
expenses of the sale, including reasonable Trustee's fees not to exceed 5% of
the gross sales price, attorneys' fees and costs of title evidence; (ii) to the
Debt in such order as Agent, in Agent's discretion, directs; and (iii) the
excess, if any, to the person or persons legally entitled to the
excess.

     

    (c)          If
all or any part of the Property is sold pursuant to this Section, Borrower will
be divested of any and all interest and claim to the Property, including,
without limitation, any interest or claim to all insurance policies, utility
deposits, bonds, loan commitments and other intangible property included as a
part of the Property. Additionally, after a sale of all or any part of the Land,
Improvements, and Personal Property, Borrower will be considered a tenant at
sufferance of the purchaser of the same, and the purchaser shall be entitled to
immediate possession of such property. If Borrower shall fail to vacate the
Property immediately, the purchaser may and shall have the right, without
further notice to Borrower, to go into any justice court in any precinct or
county in which the Property is located and file an action in forcible entry and
detainer, which action shall lie against Borrower or its assigns or legal
representatives, as a tenant at sufferance. This remedy is cumulative of any and
all remedies the purchaser may have under this Security Instrument or
otherwise.

     

    (d)          In
any action for a deficiency after a foreclosure under this Security Instrument,
if any person against whom recovery is sought requests the court in which the
action is pending to determine the fair market value of the Property, as of the
date of the foreclosure sale, the following shall be the basis of the court's
determination of fair market value:

     

    (i)           the
Property shall be valued "as is" and in its condition as of the date of
foreclosure, and no assumption of increased value because of post-foreclosure
repairs, refurbishment, restorations or improvements shall be made;

     

    (ii)           any
adverse effect on the marketability of title because of the foreclosure or
because of any other title condition not existing as of the date of this
Security Instrument shall be considered;

     

    (iii)          the
valuation of the Property shall be based upon an assumption that the foreclosure
purchaser desires a prompt resale of the Property for cash within a six
month-period after foreclosure;

     

    (iv)          although
the Property may be disposed of more quickly by the foreclosure purchaser, the
gross valuation of the Property as of the date of foreclosure shall be
discounted for a hypothetical reasonable holding period (not to exceed 6 months)
at a monthly rate equal to the average monthly interest rate on the Note for the
twelve months before the date of foreclosure;

     

    (v)           the
gross valuation of the Property as of the date of foreclosure shall be further
discounted and reduced by reasonable estimated costs of disposition, including
brokerage commissions, title policy premiums, environmental assessment and
clean-up costs, tax and assessment, prorations, costs to comply with legal
requirements and attorneys' fees, reduced by the discounted value of estimated
net operating income to be generated by the Property pending disposition, if
any;

     


    
      
         


      

      
        11

        
          

        

      

      
         


      

    

     

    (vi)         expert
opinion testimony shall be considered only from a licensed appraiser certified
by the State of Texas and, to the extent permitted under Texas law, a member of
the Appraisal Institute, having at least five years' experience in appraising
property similar to the Property in the county where the Property is located,
and who has conducted and prepared a complete written appraisal of the Property
taking into considerations the factors set forth in this Security Instrument; no
expert opinion testimony shall be considered without such written
appraisal;

     

    (vii)        evidence
of comparable sales shall be considered only if also included in the expert
opinion testimony and written appraisal referred to in subsection (vi), above;
and

     

    (viii)       an
affidavit executed by Agent to the effect that the foreclosure bid accepted by
Trustee was equal to or greater than the value of the Property determined by
Agent based upon the factors and methods set forth in subsections (i) through
(vii) above before the foreclosure shall constitute prima facie evidence that the
foreclosure bid was equal to or greater than the fair market value of the
Property on the foreclosure date.

     

    (e)         
Agent may, at Agent's option, comply with these provisions in the manner
permitted or required by Title 5, Section 51.002 of the Texas Property Code
(relating to the sale of real estate) or by Chapter 9 of the Texas Business and
Commerce Code (relating to the sale of collateral after default by a debtor), as
those titles and chapters now exist or may be amended or succeeded in the
future, or by any other present or future articles or enactments relating to
same subject. Unless expressly excluded, the Property shall include Rents
collected before a foreclosure sale, but attributable to the period following
the foreclosure sale, and Borrower shall pay such Rents to the purchaser at such
sale. At any such sale whether made under the power contained in this Security
Instrument, Section 51.002 of the Texas Property Code, Chapter 9 of the Texas
Business and Commerce Code, any other legal requirement or by virtue of any
judicial proceedings or any other legal right, remedy or recourse, it shall not
be necessary for Trustee to have physically present, or to have constructive
possession of, the Property (Borrower shall deliver to Trustee any portion of
the Property not actually or constructively possessed by Trustee immediately
upon demand by Trustee) and the title to and right of possession of any such
property shall pass to the purchaser as completely as if the property had been
actually present and delivered to the purchaser at the sale:

     

    (i)            each
instrument of conveyance executed by Trustee shall contain a special warranty of
title, binding upon Borrower;

     

    (ii)            the
recitals contained in any instrument of conveyance made by Trustee shall
conclusively establish the truth and accuracy of the matters recited therein,
including nonpayment of the Debt and the advertisement and conduct of the sale
in the manner provided in this Security Instrument and otherwise by law and the
appointment of any successor Trustee;

     

    (iii)            all
prerequisites to the validity of the sale shall be conclusively presumed to have
been satisfied;

     

    (iv)            the
receipt of Trustee or of such other party or officer making the sale shall be
sufficient to discharge to the purchaser or purchasers for such purchaser(s)'
purchase money, and no such purchaser or purchasers, or such purchaser(s)'
assigns or personal representatives, shall thereafter be obligated to see to the
application of such purchase money or be in any way answerable for any loss,
misapplication or nonapplication of such purchase money;

     

    (v)            to
the fullest extent permitted by law, Borrower shall be completely and
irrevocably divested of all of Borrower's right, title, interest, claim and
demand whatsoever, either at law or in equity, in and to the property sold, and
such sale shall be a perpetual bar to any claim to all or any part of the
property sold, both at law and in equity, against Borrower and against any
person claiming by, through or under Borrower; and

     

    (vi)            to
the extent and under such circumstances as are permitted by law, Agent may be a
purchaser at any such sale.

    10.03
Fixture Filing.
This Security Instrument is also a fixture filing under the Uniform Commercial
Code of Texas.

     

    10.04
Additional Provisions
Regarding Assignment of Rents. Section 2.03 shall
not be construed to require a
pro tanto or
other reduction of the Debt resulting from the assignment of Rents. If the
provisions of Section
2.03 and the preceding sentence cause the assignment of Rents in Section 2.03 to be
deemed to be an assignment for additional security only, Agent shall be entitled
to all rights, benefits and remedies attendant to such collateral assignment.
The assignment of Rents contained in Section 2.03 shall
terminate upon the release of this Security Instrument.

    10.05
[Reserved]

     

    10.06
Waiver of
Appraisement. Borrower hereby waives any rights of appraisement or for
determination of the fair market value of the Property under Sections 51.003 and
51.004 of the Texas Property Code or as Borrower may otherwise be entitled under
Texas law.
