In all events, the amounts of such insurance coverages shall conform to prudent business practices and shall be in such minimum amounts that Company will not be deemed a co-insurer under applicable insurance laws, policies or practices. The Company hereby assigns to Secured Party and grants to Secured Party a security interest in any and all proceeds of such policies and authorizes and empowers Secured Party to adjust or compromise any loss under such policies and to collect and receive all such proceeds.  The Company hereby authorizes and directs each insurance company to pay all such proceeds directly and solely to Secured Party and not to the Company and Secured Party jointly.  The Company authorizes and empowers Secured Party to execute and endorse in Company’s name all proofs of loss, drafts, checks and any other documents or instruments necessary to accomplish such collection, and any persons making payments to Secured Party under the terms of this subsection are hereby relieved absolutely from any obligation or responsibility to see to the application of any sums so paid.  After deduction from any such proceeds of all costs and expenses (including attorney’s fees) incurred by Secured Party in the collection and handling of such proceeds, the net proceeds shall be applied as follows: if no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, such net proceeds may be applied, at Company’s option, either toward replacing or restoring the Collateral, in a manner and on terms satisfactory to Secured Party, or as a credit against such of the Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, as Secured Party shall determine in Secured Party’s sole discretion.  In the event that Company may and does elect to replace or restore any of the Collateral as aforesaid, then such net proceeds shall be deposited in a segregated account opened in the name and for the benefit of Secured Party, and such net proceeds shall be disbursed therefrom by Secured Party in such manner and at such times as Secured Party deems appropriate to complete and insure such replacement or restoration; provided, however, that if an Event of Default shall occur at any time before or after replacement or restoration has commenced, then thereupon Secured Party shall have the option to apply all remaining net proceeds either toward replacing or restoring the Collateral, in a manner and on terms satisfactory to Secured Party, or as a credit against such of the Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, as Secured Party shall determine in Secured Party’s sole discretion.  If an Event of Default shall have occurred prior to such deposit of the net proceeds, then Secured Party may, in its sole discretion, apply such net proceeds either toward replacing or restoring the Collateral, in a manner and on terms satisfactory to Secured Party, or as a credit against such of the Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, as Secured Party shall determine in Secured Party’s sole discretion.

(xx)       The Company shall cooperate with Secured Party to obtain and keep in effect one or more control agreements in Deposit Accounts, Electronic Chattel Paper, Investment Property and Letter-of-Credit Rights Collateral, or any other Collateral that may, in Secured Party’s sole discretion, require any such control agreements, provided, however, such control agreements shall only be required upon the occurrence of an Event of Default.  In addition, the Company, at the Company’s expense, shall promptly: (A) execute all notices of security interest for each relevant type of Software and other General Intangibles in forms suitable for filing with any United States or foreign office handling the registration or filing of patents, trademarks, copyrights and other intellectual property and any successor office or agency thereto; and (B) take all commercially reasonable steps in any Proceeding before any such office or any similar office or agency in any other country or any political subdivision thereof, to diligently prosecute or maintain, as applicable, each application and registration of any Software, General Intangibles or any other intellectual property rights and assets that are part of the Collateral, including filing of renewals, affidavits of use, affidavits of incontestability and opposition, interference and cancellation proceedings.







(xxi)       Company shall not file any amendments, correction statements or termination statements concerning the Collateral without the prior written consent of Secured Party.







(c) Collateral Collections.  After an Event of Default shall have occurred, Secured Party shall have the right at any and all times to enforce the Company’s rights against all Persons obligated on any of the Collateral, including the right to: (i) notify and/or require the Company to notify any or all Persons obligated on any of the Collateral to make payments directly to Secured Party or in care of a post office lock box under the sole control of Secured Party established at Company’s expense, and to take any or all action with respect to Collateral as Secured Party shall determine in its sole discretion, including, the right to demand, collect, sue for and receive any money or property at any time due, payable or receivable on account thereof, compromise and settle with any Person liable thereon, and extend the time of payment or otherwise change the terms thereof, without incurring any liability or responsibility to the Company whatsoever; and/or (ii) require the Company to segregate and hold in trust for Secured Party and, on the day of Company’s receipt thereof, transmit to Secured Party in the exact form received by the Company (except for such assignments and endorsements as may be required by Secured Party), all cash, checks, drafts, money orders and other items of payment constituting any portion of the Collateral or proceeds of the Collateral.

(d) Care of Collateral.  Company shall have all risk of loss of the Collateral.  Secured Party shall have no liability or duty, either before or after the occurrence of an Event of Default, on account of loss of or damage to, to collect or enforce any of its rights against, the Collateral, to collect any income accruing on the Collateral, or to preserve rights against Persons with prior interests in the Collateral.  If Secured Party actually receives any notices requiring action with respect to Collateral in Secured Party’s possession, Secured Party shall take reasonable steps to forward such notices to the Company. The Company is responsible for responding to notices concerning the Collateral, voting the Collateral, and exercising rights and options, calls and conversions of the Collateral. Secured Party’s sole responsibility is to take such action as is reasonably requested by Company in writing, however, Secured Party is not responsible to take any action that, in Secured Party’s sole judgment, would affect the value of the Collateral as security for the Obligations adversely.  While Secured Party is not required to take certain actions, if action is needed, in Secured Party’s sole discretion, to preserve and maintain the Collateral, Company authorizes Secured Party to take such actions, but Secured Party is not obligated to do so.

(vi) The Company hereby acknowledges that if the Secured Party complies with any applicable foreign, state, provincial or federal law requirements in connection with a disposition of the Collateral, such compliance will not adversely affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale or other disposition of the Collateral.







(vii)     The Secured Party shall not be required to marshal any present or future collateral security (including, this Agreement and the Collateral) for, or other assurances of payment of, the Obligations or any of them or to resort to such collateral security or other assurances of payment in any particular order, and all of the Secured Party’s rights hereunder and in respect of such collateral security and other assurances of payment shall be cumulative and in addition to all other rights, however existing or arising. To the extent that the Company lawfully may, the Company hereby agrees that it will not invoke any law relating to the marshaling of collateral which might cause delay in or impede the enforcement of the Secured Party’s rights under this Agreement or under any other instrument creating or evidencing any of the Obligations or under which any of the Obligations is outstanding or by which any of the Obligations is secured or payment thereof is otherwise assured, and, to the extent that it lawfully may, the Company hereby irrevocably waives the benefits of all such laws.







(b) Power of Attorney.  Effective upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Company hereby designates and appoints Secured Party and its designees as attorney-in-fact of and for the Company, irrevocably and with full power of substitution, with authority to endorse the Company’s name on any notes, acceptances, checks, drafts, money orders, instruments or other evidences of payment or proceeds of the Collateral that may come into Secured Party’s possession; to execute proofs of claim and loss; to adjust and compromise any claims under insurance policies; and to perform all other acts necessary and advisable, in Secured Party’s sole discretion, to carry out and enforce this Agreement and the rights and remedies conferred upon the Secured Party by this Agreement, the Purchase Agreement or any other Transaction Documents.  All acts of said attorney or designee are hereby ratified and approved by the Company and said attorney or designee shall not be liable for any acts of commission or omission, nor for any error of judgment or mistake of fact or law.  This power of attorney is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable so long as any of the Obligations remain unpaid or unperformed or there exists any commitment by Secured Party which could give rise to any Obligations.







(c) Costs and Expenses.  Upon the occurrence of a default or Event of Default under this Agreement or any other Transaction Documents, the Company agrees to pay to the Secured Party, upon demand, the amount of any and all costs and expenses, including the reasonable fees, costs, expenses and disbursements of counsel for the Secured Party and of any experts and agents, which the Secured Party may incur in connection with: (i) the preparation, negotiation, execution, delivery, recordation, administration, amendment, waiver or other modification or termination of this Agreement; (ii) the custody, preservation, use or operation of, or the sale of, collection from, or other realization upon, any Collateral; (iii) the exercise or enforcement of any of the rights of the Secured Party hereunder; or (iv) the failure by the Company to perform or observe any of the provisions hereof.  Included in the foregoing shall be the amount of all expenses paid or incurred by Secured Party in consulting with counsel concerning any of its rights hereunder, under the Purchase Agreement or under applicable law, as well as such portion of Secured Party’s overhead as Secured Party shall allocate to collection and enforcement of the Obligations in Secured Party’s sole but reasonable discretion.  All such costs and expenses shall bear interest from the date of outlay until paid, at the highest rate set forth in the Debenture, or if none is so stated, the highest rate allowed by law.  The provisions of this Subsection shall survive the termination of this Agreement and Secured Party’s security interest hereunder and the payment of all Obligations.

6. Security Interest Absolute. All rights of the Secured Party and all Obligations of the Company hereunder, shall be absolute and unconditional, irrespective of: (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of this Agreement, the Purchase Agreement, and any other Transaction Documents or any agreement entered into in connection with the foregoing, or any portion hereof or thereof; (ii) any change in the time, manner or place of payment or performance of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Obligations, or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to any departure from the terms and provisions of the Purchase Agreement, any other Transaction Documents, or any other agreement entered into in connection with the foregoing; (iii)  any exchange, release or non-perfection of any of the Collateral, or any release or amendment or waiver of or consent to departure from any other collateral for, or any guaranty, or any other security, for all or any of the Obligations; (iv) any action by the Secured Party to obtain, adjust, settle and cancel in its sole discretion any insurance claims or matters made or arising in connection with the Collateral; or (v) any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute any legal or equitable defense available to the Company, or a discharge of all or any part of the security interests granted hereby. Until the Obligations shall have been paid and performed in full, the rights of the Secured Party shall continue even if the Obligations are barred for any reason, including, the running of the statute of limitations or bankruptcy. In the event that at any time any transfer of any Collateral or any payment received by the Secured Party hereunder shall be deemed by final order of a court of competent jurisdiction to have been a voidable preference or fraudulent conveyance under the Bankruptcy Code or any other similar insolvency or bankruptcy laws of any jurisdiction, or shall be deemed to be otherwise due to any party other than the Secured Party, then, in any such event, the Company’s obligations hereunder shall survive cancellation of this Agreement, and shall not be discharged or satisfied by any prior payment thereof and/or cancellation of this Agreement, but shall remain a valid and binding obligation enforceable in accordance with the terms and provisions hereof.  The Company waives all right to require the Secured Party to proceed against any other Person or to apply any Collateral which the Secured Party may hold at any time, or to pursue any other remedy. The Company waives any defense arising by reason of the application of the statute of limitations to any obligation secured hereby.







7. Indemnity.  The Company agrees to defend, protect, indemnify and hold the Secured Party forever harmless from and against any and all Claims of any nature or kind (including reasonable legal fees, costs, expenses, and disbursements of counsel) to the extent that they arise out of, or otherwise result from, this Agreement (including, enforcement of this Agreement).  This indemnity shall survive termination of this Agreement but only until the statute of limitations with respect to any Claims has expired, at which time this indemnity shall no longer survive.

8. Miscellaneous.







(a) Performance for Company.  The Company agrees and hereby authorizes that Secured Party may, in Secured Party’s sole discretion, but Secured Party shall not be obligated to, whether or not an Event of Default shall have occurred, advance funds on behalf of the Company, without prior notice to the Company, in order to insure the Company’s compliance with any covenant, warranty, representation or agreement of the Company made in or pursuant to this Agreement, the Purchase Agreement, or any other Transaction Documents, to continue or complete, or cause to be continued or completed, performance of the Company’s obligations under any Contracts of the Company, or to preserve or protect any right or interest of Secured Party in the Collateral or under or pursuant to this Agreement, the Purchase Agreement or any other Transaction Documents, including, the payment of any insurance premiums or taxes and the satisfaction or discharge of any Claim, Obligation, Judgment or any other Encumbrance upon the Collateral or other property or Assets of Company; provided, however, that the making of any such advance by Secured Party shall not constitute a waiver by Secured Party of any Event of Default with respect to which such advance is made, nor relieve the Company of any such Event of Default. The Company shall pay to Secured Party upon demand all such advances made by Secured Party with interest thereon at the highest rate set forth in the Debenture, or if none is so stated, the highest rate allowed by law.  All such advances shall be deemed to be included in the Obligations and secured by the security interest granted Secured Party hereunder; provided, however, that the provisions of this Subsection shall survive the termination of this Agreement and Secured Party’s security interest hereunder and the payment of all other Obligations.







(b) Applications of Payments and Collateral.  Except as may be otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement or the Purchase Agreement, all Collateral and proceeds of Collateral coming into Secured Party’s possession and all payments made by any Person to Secured Party with respect to any Collateral may be applied by Secured Party (after payment of any amounts payable to the Secured Party pursuant to Section 5(c) hereof) to any of the Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, as Secured Party shall determine in its sole, but reasonable discretion.  Any surplus held by the Secured Party and remaining after the indefeasible payment in full in cash of all of the Obligations shall be paid over to whomsoever shall be lawfully entitled to receive the same or as a court of competent jurisdiction shall direct.  Secured Party may defer the application of Noncash Proceeds of Collateral, to the Obligations until Cash Proceeds are actually received by Secured Party.  In the event that the proceeds of any such sale, collection or realization are insufficient to pay all amounts to which the Secured Party is legally entitled, the Company shall be liable for the deficiency, together with interest thereon at the highest rate specified in the Debenture for interest on overdue principal thereof or such other rate as shall be fixed by applicable law, together with the costs of collection and the reasonable fees, costs, expenses and other client charges of any attorneys employed by the Secured Party to collect such deficiency.







(c) Waivers by Company.  The Company hereby waives, to the extent the same may be waived under applicable law: (i) notice of acceptance of this Agreement; (ii) all claims and rights of the Company against Secured Party on account of actions taken or not taken by Secured Party in the exercise of Secured Party’s rights or remedies hereunder, under the Purchase Agreement, and other Transaction Documents or under applicable law; (iii) all claims of the Company for failure of Secured Party to comply with any requirement of applicable law relating to enforcement of Secured Party’s rights or remedies hereunder, under the Purchase Agreement, under any other Transaction Documents or under applicable law; (iv) all rights of redemption of the Company with respect to the Collateral; (v) in the event Secured Party seeks to repossess any or all of the Collateral by judicial proceedings, any bond(s) or demand(s) for possession which otherwise may be necessary or required; (vi) presentment, demand for payment, protest and notice of non-payment and all exemptions applicable to any of the Collateral or the Company; (vii) any and all other notices or demands which by applicable law must be given to or made upon the Company by Secured Party; (viii) settlement, compromise or release of the obligations of any Person primarily or secondarily liable upon any of the Obligations; (ix) all rights of the Company to demand that Secured Party release account debtors or other Persons liable on any of the Collateral from further obligation to Secured Party; and (x) substitution, impairment, exchange or release of any Collateral for any of the Obligations. The Company agrees that Secured Party may exercise any or all of its rights and/or remedies hereunder, under the Purchase Agreement, the other Transaction Documents and under applicable law without resorting to and without regard to any Collateral or sources of liability with respect to any of the Obligations.  Upon termination of this Agreement and Secured Party’s security interest hereunder and payment of all Obligations, within ten (10) business days following the Company’s request to Secured Party, Secured Party shall release control of any security interest in the Collateral perfected by control and Secured Party shall send Company a statement terminating any financing statement filed against the Collateral.









  





13











  






 


(d) Waivers by Secured Party.  No failure or any delay on the part of Secured Party in exercising any right, power or remedy hereunder, under this Agreement, the Purchase Agreement, and other Transaction Documents or under applicable law, shall operate as a waiver thereof.







(e) Secured Party’s Setoff.  Secured Party shall have the right, in addition to all other rights and remedies available to it, following an Event of Default, to set off against any Obligations due Secured Party, any debt owing to the Company by Secured Party.







(f) Modifications, Waivers and Consents.  No modifications or waiver of any provision of this Agreement, the Purchase Agreement, or any other Transaction Documents, and no consent by Secured Party to any departure by the Company therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given, and any single or partial written waiver by Secured Party of any term, provision or right of Secured Party hereunder shall only be applicable to the specific instance to which it relates and shall not be deemed to be a continuing or future waiver of any other right, power or remedy.  No notice to or demand upon the Company in any case shall entitle Company to any other or further notice or demand in the same, similar or other circumstances.
