No Grantor shall permit any such items to become a fixture to real estate or an accession to other personal property unless such real estate or personal property is the subject of a fixture filing (as defined in the UCC) creating a first priority perfected Lien in favor of the Administrative Agent.

 

(d)           Patents, Trademarks, Etc.  Each Grantor shall notify the Administrative Agent within a reasonable time after the occurrence of each of the following (i) such Grantor’s acquisition after the date of this Agreement of any material Intellectual Property and (ii) a

 

12











 

Responsible Officer of such Grantor obtaining knowledge, or reason to know, that any application or registration relating to any Intellectual Property owned by or licensed to such Grantor is reasonably likely to become abandoned or dedicated, or of any material adverse determination or development (including, without limitation, the institution of, or any such determination or development in, any proceeding in the United States Copyright Office, the United States Patent and Trademark Office or any court) regarding such Grantor’s ownership of any material Intellectual Property, its right to register the same, or to keep and maintain the same.  Each Grantor will, contemporaneously herewith, execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent the Patent Security Agreement, Trademark Security Agreement and Copyright Security Agreement in the forms of Exhibit A, Exhibit B and Exhibit C hereto, as necessary, and shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent any other document required to acknowledge or register or perfect the Administrative Agent’s interest in any part of the Intellectual Property.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall only require perfection of its security interests in, or other registration with respect to, any Patent, Trademark or Copyright registered, or eligible to be registered, with a country other than the United States or any political subdivision thereof, to the extent that Administrative Agent determines, in its sole discretion, that such Patent, Trademark or Copyright, and the registration thereof in such other country or political subdivision thereof, is material to the applicable Grantor’s business.

 

(e)           Deposit Accounts, Chattel Paper, Investment Property and Letters of Credit.

 

(i)            No Grantor shall open or maintain any Deposit Accounts other than those listed on the Perfection Certificates attached hereto as Schedule III and such other Deposit Accounts as such Grantor shall open and maintain with the consent of the Administrative Agent subject to control agreements, in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion, executed by such Grantor, the bank at which the deposit account is located and the Administrative Agent.

 

(ii)           No Grantor shall become the beneficiary of any Letters of Credit, unless the issuer of the Letter of Credit has consented to the assignment of the proceeds of such Letter of Credit to the Administrative Agent which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, such assignment to be in form and substance acceptable to the Administrative Agent.

 

(iii)          Each Grantor, at any time and from time to time, will (a) take such steps as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request from time to time for the Administrative Agent to obtain “control” of any Investment Property or electronic Chattel Paper, with any agreements establishing control to be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, and (b) otherwise to insure the continued perfection and priority of the Administrative Agent’s security interest in any of the Collateral and of the preservation of its rights therein.

 

13











 

(f)            Commercial Tort Claims.  If any Grantor shall at any time acquire a “commercial tort claim” (as such term is defined in the UCC) with a claim for damages that could reasonably be expected to be in excess of Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000), such Grantor shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent thereof in a writing, providing a reasonable description and summary thereof, and shall execute a supplement to this Agreement granting a security interest in such commercial tort claim to the Administrative Agent.

 

(g)           Insurance.  Each Grantor shall have its Equipment and Inventory insured against loss or damage by fire, theft, burglary, pilferage, loss in transportation and such other hazards as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably specify, by reputable and financially viable insurers (having a rating of A or A-:  Class V or better by Best’s Key Rating Guide), in amounts satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and under policies containing loss payable clauses satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.  Any such insurance policies, or certificates or other evidence thereof satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, shall be deposited with the Administrative Agent.  Each Grantor agrees that the Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, shall have a security interest in such policies and the proceeds of such policies thereof, and if any loss shall occur during the continuation of an Event of Default, the proceeds relating to the loss or damage of the Equipment or Inventory may be applied to the payment of the Obligations or to the replacement or restoration of the Inventory or Equipment damaged or destroyed, as the Administrative Agent may elect or direct.  After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent shall have the right to file claims under any insurance policies, to receive receipt and give acquittance for any payments that may be made thereunder, and to execute any and all endorsements, receipts, releases, assignments, reassignments or other documents that may be necessary to effect to the collection, compromise, or settlement of any claims under any of the insurance policies.

 

SECTION 5.  Reporting and Recordkeeping.  Each Grantor covenants and agrees with the Administrative Agent that from and after the date of this Agreement and until the Secured Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full in cash:

 

(a)           Maintenance of Records Generally.  Each Grantor will keep and maintain at its own cost and expense records of its Collateral, complete in all material respects, including, without limitation, a record of all payments received and all credits granted with respect to the Collateral and all other dealings with its Collateral.  At the Administrative Agent’s request, during the continuation of an Event of Default, each Grantor will mark its books and records pertaining to its Collateral to evidence this Agreement and the Security Interests.  All Chattel Paper will be marked with the following legend:  “This writing and the obligations evidenced or secured hereby are subject to the security interest of SunTrust Bank, as Administrative Agent.”  For the Administrative Agent’s further security, each Grantor agrees that the Administrative Agent shall have a security interest in all of such Grantor’s books and records pertaining to its Collateral and, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of any Event of Default, such Grantor shall deliver and turn over full and complete copies of any such books and records to the Administrative Agent or to its representatives at any time on demand of the Administrative Agent.  Upon reasonable notice from the Administrative Agent, each Grantor shall permit any representative of the Administrative Agent, to inspect such books and records and will provide photocopies thereof to the Administrative Agent.

 

14











 

(b)           Special Provisions Regarding Maintenance of Records and Reporting Re: Accounts, Inventory and Equipment;

 

(i)            Each Grantor shall keep complete and accurate records of its Accounts.  Upon the request of the Administrative Agent, and prior to an Event of Default no more frequently than one time per Fiscal Quarter and without limit after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, such Grantor shall deliver to the Administrative Agent all documents, including, without limitation, repayment histories and present status reports, relating to its Accounts so scheduled and such other matters and information relating to the status of its then existing Accounts as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably request.

 

(ii)           In the event any amounts due and owing in excess of Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000) in the aggregate are in dispute between any Account Debtor and any Grantor, such Grantor shall provide the Administrative Agent with written notice thereof promptly after such Grantor’s learning thereof explaining in detail the reason for the dispute, all claims related thereto and the amount in controversy.

 

(iii)          Each Grantor shall maintain itemized records, accurate in all material respects, itemizing and describing the kind, type, quality, quantity, location and book value of its Inventory and Equipment and shall, upon request by the Administrative Agent, furnish the Administrative Agent with a current schedule containing the foregoing information.

 

(iv)          Each Grantor will promptly upon, but in no event later than five (5) Business Days after:

 

(A)  Such Grantor’s learning thereof, inform the Administrative Agent, in writing, of any delay in such Grantor’s performance of any of its obligations to any Account Debtor and of any assertion of any claims, offsets or counterclaims by any Account Debtor and of any allowances, credits or other monies granted by such Grantor to any Account Debtor, in each case involving amounts in excess of $500,000 in the aggregate for all Accounts of such Account Debtor; and

 

(B)   Such Grantor’s receipt or learning thereof, furnish to and inform the Administrative Agent of all material adverse information relating to the financial condition of any Account Debtor with respect to Accounts exceeding $50,000 in the aggregate; and

 

(v)           If any Account, arises out of a contract with the United States of America, or any department, agency, subdivision or instrumentality thereof, or of

 

15











 

any state (or department, agency, subdivision or instrumentality thereof) where such state has a state assignment of claims act or other law comparable to the Federal Assignment of Claims Act, such Grantor will take any action required or requested by the Administrative Agent to give notice of the Administrative Agent’s security interest in such Accounts under the provisions of the Federal Assignment of Claims Act or any comparable law or act enacted by any state or local governmental authority; and

 

(vi)          Such Grantor at its expense will cause independent public accountants reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent to prepare and deliver to the Administrative Agent promptly upon the Administrative Agent’s request made when any Event of Default exists, the following reports: (A) a reconciliation of all of its Accounts, (B) an aging of all of its Accounts, (C) trial balances, and (D) a test verification of such Accounts.

 

(c)           Further Identification of Collateral.  Each Grantor will if so requested by the Administrative Agent furnish to the Administrative Agent, as often as the Administrative Agent reasonably requests but in no event more frequently than once per calendar quarter and without limit after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, statements and schedules further identifying and describing the Collateral and such other reports in connection with the Collateral as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request, all in reasonable detail.

 

(d)           Notices.  In addition to the notices required by Section 5(b) hereof, each Grantor will advise the Administrative Agent promptly, but in no event later than thirty (30) days after the occurrence thereof, in reasonable detail, (i) of any Lien or claim made or asserted against any of the Collateral that is not expressly permitted by the terms of the Credit Agreement, and (ii) of the occurrence of any other event which would have a material adverse effect on the aggregate value of the Collateral or on the validity, perfection or priority of the Security Interests.

 

SECTION 6.  General Authority.  Each Grantor hereby irrevocably appoints, so long as any Obligations remain outstanding, the Administrative Agent its true and lawful attorney, with full power of substitution, in the name of such Grantor, the Administrative Agent or otherwise, for the sole use and benefit of the Administrative Agent on its behalf and on behalf of the Secured Parties, but at such Grantor’s expense, to exercise, at any time (subject to the proviso below) all or any of the following powers:

 

(i)            to file the financing statements, financing statement amendments and continuation statements referred to in Section 4(a)(iii),

 

(ii)           to demand, sue for, collect, receive and give acquittance for any and all monies due or to become due with respect to any Collateral or by virtue thereof,

 

(iii)          to settle, compromise, compound, prosecute or defend any action or proceeding with respect to any Collateral,

 

16











 

(iv)          to sell, transfer, assign or otherwise deal in or with the Collateral or the proceeds or avails thereof, as fully and effectually as if the Administrative Agent were the absolute owner thereof, and

 

(v)           to extend the time of payment of any or all thereof and to make any allowance and other adjustments with reference to the Collateral;

 

provided, however, that the powers described in clauses (ii), (iii), (iv) and (v) above may be exercised by the Administrative Agent only if an Event of Default then exists.

 

SECTION 7.  Events of Default.  Each of the following specified events shall constitute an Event of Default under this Agreement:

 

(a)           The existence or occurrence of any “Event of Default” as provided under the terms of the Credit Agreement;

 

(b)           Any representation or warranty made by or on behalf of any Grantor under or pursuant to this Agreement shall have been false or misleading in any material respect when made; or

 

(c)           Any Grantor shall fail to observe or perform any covenant or agreement set forth in this Agreement other than those referenced in paragraphs (a) and (b) above, and if such failure is capable of being remedied, such failure shall remain unremedied for thirty (30) days after the earlier of (i) any Responsible Officer of any Grantor becomes aware of such failure, or (ii) notice thereof shall have been given to any Grantor by the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party.

 

SECTION 8.  Remedies upon Event of Default.

 

(a)           If any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Administrative Agent may, without further notice, exercise all rights and remedies under this Agreement or any other Loan Document or that are available to a secured creditor under the UCC or that are otherwise available at law or in equity, at any time, in any order and in any combination, including to collect any and all Secured Obligations from the Grantors, and, in addition, the Administrative Agent may sell the Collateral or any part thereof at public or private sale, for cash, upon credit or for future delivery, and at such price or prices as the Administrative Agent may deem satisfactory.  The Administrative Agent shall give the Borrower not less than ten (10) days’ prior written notice of the time and place of any sale or other intended disposition of Collateral, except any Collateral which is perishable or threatens to decline speedily in value or is of a type customarily sold on a recognized market.  Each Grantor agrees that any such notice constitutes “reasonable notification” within the meaning of Section 8.9A-611 of the UCC (to the extent such Section or any successor provision under the UCC is applicable).

 

(b)           The Administrative Agent may be the purchaser of any or all of the Collateral so sold at any public sale (or, if such Collateral is of a type customarily sold in a recognized market or is of a type which is the subject of widely distributed standard price quotations or if otherwise permitted under applicable law, at any private sale) and thereafter hold the same, absolutely, free from any right or claim of whatsoever kind.  Each Grantor agrees

 

17











 

during an Event of Default to execute and deliver such documents and take such other action as the Administrative Agent deems necessary or advisable in order that any such sale may be made in compliance with law.  Upon any such sale the Administrative Agent shall have the right to deliver, assign and transfer to the purchaser thereof the Collateral so sold.  Each purchaser at any such sale shall hold the Collateral so sold to it absolutely, free from any claim or right of any kind, including any equity or right of redemption of the Grantors.  To the extent permitted by law, each Grantor hereby specifically waives all rights of redemption, stay or appraisal which it has or may have under any law now existing or hereafter adopted.  The notice (if any) of such sale shall (1) in case of a public sale, state the time and place fixed for such sale, and (2) in the case of a private sale, state the day after which such sale may be consummated.  Any such public sale shall be held at such time or times within ordinary business hours and at such place or places as the Administrative Agent may fix in the notice of such sale.  At any such sale Collateral may be sold in one (1) lot as an entirety or in separate parcels, as the Administrative Agent may determine.  The Administrative Agent shall not be obligated to make any such sale pursuant to any such notice.  The Administrative Agent may, without notice or publication (other than any notices required by this Section 8 or by applicable law), adjourn any public or private sale or cause the same to be adjourned from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed for the sale, and such sale may be made at any time or place to which the same may be so adjourned.  In case of any sale of all or any part of the Collateral on credit or for future delivery, such Collateral so sold may be retained by the Administrative Agent until the selling price is paid by the purchaser thereof, but the Administrative Agent shall not incur any liability in case of the failure of such purchaser to take up and pay for such Collateral so sold and, in case of any such failure, such Collateral may again be sold upon like notice.  The Administrative Agent, instead of exercising the power of sale herein conferred upon it, may proceed by a suit or suits at law or in equity to foreclose the Security Interests and sell Collateral, or any portion thereof, under a judgment or decree of a court or courts of competent jurisdiction.  The Grantors shall remain liable for any deficiency.

 

(c)           For the purpose of enforcing any and all rights and remedies under this Agreement, the Administrative Agent may (i) require any Grantor to, and each Grantor agrees that it will, at the joint and several expense of the Grantors, and upon the request of the Administrative Agent, forthwith assemble all or any part of its Collateral as directed by the Administrative Agent and make it available at a place designated by the Administrative Agent which is, in the Administrative Agent’s opinion, reasonably convenient to the Administrative Agent and such Grantor, whether at the premises of such Grantor or otherwise, (ii) to the extent permitted by applicable law, enter, with or without process of law and without breach of the peace, any premise where any such Collateral is or may be located and, without charge or liability to the Administrative Agent, seize and remove such Collateral from such premises, (iii) have access to and use such Grantor’s books and records, computers and software (subject to the terms of applicable licenses) relating to the Collateral, and (iv) prior to the disposition of any of the Collateral, store or transfer such Collateral without charge in or by means of any storage or transportation facility owned or leased by such Grantor, process, repair or recondition such Collateral or otherwise prepare it for disposition in any manner and to the extent the Administrative Agent deems appropriate and, in connection with such preparation and disposition, use without charge any trademark, trade name, copyright, patent or technical process used such Grantor.

 

18











 

(d)           Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing:

 

(i)            the Administrative Agent may (without assuming any obligations or liability thereunder), at any time and from time to time, enforce (and shall have the exclusive right to enforce) against any licensee or sublicensee all rights and remedies of any Grantor in, to and under any Licenses and take or refrain from taking any action under any thereof, and each Grantor hereby releases the Administrative Agent from, and agrees to hold the Administrative Agent free and harmless from and against any claims arising out of, any lawful action so taken or omitted to be taken with respect thereto except  for the Administrative Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction; and

 

(ii)           upon request by the Administrative Agent, each Grantor agrees to execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent powers of attorney, in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, for the implementation of any lease, assignment, license, sublicense, grant of option, sale or other disposition of any Intellectual Property, in each case subject to the terms of the applicable License.  In the event of any such disposition pursuant to this Section, each Grantor shall supply its know-how and expertise relating to the manufacture and sale of the products bearing Trademarks or the products or services made or rendered in connection with Patents or Copyrights, and its customer lists and other records relating to such Intellectual Property and to the distribution of said products, to the Administrative Agent.

 

SECTION 9.  Limitation on Duty of Administrative Agent in Respect of Collateral.  Beyond the duties of a secured party set forth in Sections 8.9A-207 through 8.9A-209 of the UCC, the Administrative Agent shall have no duty as to any Collateral of any Grantor in its possession or control or in the possession or control of any agent or bailee or any income thereon or as to the preservation of rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining thereto.  The Administrative Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody of the Collateral of the Grantors in its possession if such Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which it accords its own property, and the Administrative Agent shall not be liable or responsible for any loss or damage to any of the Grantors’ Collateral, or for any diminution in the value thereof, by reason of the act or omission of any warehouseman, carrier, forwarding agency, consignee or other agent or bailee selected by the Administrative Agent in good faith.

 

SECTION 10.  Application of Proceeds. The proceeds of any sale of, or other realization upon, all or any part of the Collateral of the Grantors shall be applied by the Administrative Agent in the manner set forth in Section 8.2 of the Credit Agreement.

 

SECTION 11.  Concerning the Administrative Agent.  The provisions of Article 9 of the Credit Agreement shall inure to the benefit of the Administrative Agent in respect of this Agreement and shall be binding upon the parties to the Credit Agreement in such respect.  In furtherance and not in derogation of the rights, privileges and immunities of the Administrative Agent therein set forth:

 

19











 

(a)           The Administrative Agent is authorized to take all such action as is provided to be taken by it as the Administrative Agent hereunder or otherwise permitted under the Credit Agreement and all other action reasonably incidental thereto.  As to any matters not expressly provided for herein or therein, the Administrative Agent may request instructions from the Secured Parties and shall act or refrain from acting in accordance with written instructions from the Required Lenders or, in the absence of such instructions, in accordance with its discretion.

 

(b)           The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the existence, genuineness or value of any of the Grantors’ Collateral or for the validity, perfection, priority or enforceability of the Security Interests, whether impaired by operation of law or by reason of any action or omission to act on its part.  The Administrative Agent shall have no duty to ascertain or inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms of this Agreement by the Grantors.

 

SECTION 12.  Appointment of Co-Administrative Agents.  At any time or times, in order to comply with any legal requirement in any jurisdiction, the Administrative Agent may appoint another bank or trust company or one (1) or more other Persons reasonably acceptable to the Required Lenders and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred or is continuing, the Borrower, either to act as co-agent or co-agents, jointly with the Administrative Agent, or to act as separate agent or agents on behalf of the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties with such power and authority as may be necessary for the effectual operation of the provisions hereof and specified in the instrument of appointment (which may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, include provisions for the protection of such co-agent or separate agent similar to the provisions of Section 11 hereof).  Any such Co-Administrative Agent shall have no greater rights than the Administrative Agent under this Agreement.

 

SECTION 13.  Expenses.  In the event that any Grantor fails to comply with the provisions of the Credit Agreement, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, such that the value of any of its Collateral or the validity, perfection, rank or value of the Security Interests are thereby diminished or potentially diminished or put at risk, the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be required to, effect such compliance on behalf of such Grantor, and the Grantors shall jointly and severally reimburse the Administrative Agent for the reasonable and actual costs thereof on demand.  All insurance expenses and all expenses of protecting, storing, warehousing, appraising, insuring, handling, maintaining and shipping such Collateral, any and all excise, stamp, intangibles, transfer, property, sales, and use taxes imposed by any state, federal, or local authority or any other governmental authority on any of such Collateral, or in respect of periodic appraisals and inspections of such Collateral, or in respect of the sale or other disposition thereof, shall be borne and paid by the Grantors jointly and severally; and if the Grantors fail promptly to pay any portion thereof when due, the Administrative Agent may, at its option, but shall not be required to, pay the same and charge the Grantors’ accounts therefor, and the Grantors agree jointly and severally to reimburse the Administrative Agent therefor on demand.  All sums so paid or incurred by the Administrative Agent for any of the foregoing and any and all other sums for which the Grantors may become liable hereunder and all reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees, legal expenses and court costs) incurred by the Administrative Agent in enforcing or protecting the Security Interests or any of its rights or remedies thereon shall be payable by the Grantors on demand and shall bear interest (after as

 

20











 

well as before judgment) until paid at the default rate of interest set forth in the Credit Agreement and shall be additional Secured Obligations hereunder.

 

SECTION 14.  Termination of Security Interests; Release of Collateral.  Upon Payment in Full of all Obligations, the Security Interests shall terminate and all rights to the Collateral shall revert to the Grantors.  Upon any such termination of the Security Interests or release of such Collateral, the Administrative Agent will promptly upon the Grantor’s request and contemporaneously with any refinancing of the Obligations, at the expense of the Borrower, execute and deliver to the Borrower such documents as the Grantors shall reasonably request, but without recourse or warranty to the Administrative Agent, including but not limited to written authorization to file termination statements to evidence the termination of the Security Interests in such Collateral.

 

SECTION 15.  Notices.  All notices, requests and other communications to the Grantors or the Administrative Agent hereunder shall be delivered in the manner required by the Credit Agreement and shall be given to the Administrative Agent or any Grantor if addressed or delivered to them at, in the case of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, its addresses and telecopier numbers specified in the Credit Agreement and in the case of any other Grantors, at their respective addresses and telecopier numbers provided in the Subsidiary Guaranty Agreement.  All such notices and communications shall be deemed to have been duly given at the times set forth in the Credit Agreement.

 

SECTION 16.  No Waiver; Remedies Cumulative.  No failure or delay on the part of the Administrative Agent in exercising any right or remedy hereunder, and no course of dealing between any Grantor on the one hand and the Administrative Agent or any holder of any Note on the other hand shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right or remedy hereunder or any other Loan Document preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or remedy hereunder or thereunder.  The rights and remedies herein and in the other Loan Documents are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies which the Administrative Agent would otherwise have.  No notice to or demand on the Grantors not required hereunder in any case shall entitle any Grantor to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of the rights of the Administrative Agent to any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand.

 

SECTION 17.  Successors and Assigns.  This Agreement is for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and their permitted successors and assigns, and in the event of an assignment of all or any of the Secured Obligations, the rights hereunder, to the extent applicable to the indebtedness so assigned, may be transferred with such indebtedness.  This Agreement shall be binding on the Grantors and their successors and assigns; provided, however, that no Grantor may assign any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders.

 

SECTION 18.  Amendments.  No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement, nor consent to any departure by the Grantors herefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Administrative Agent, and then

 

21









 

such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given.
