c.       Preservation of Rights.  The Collateral Agent shall not be required to take steps necessary to preserve any rights against prior parties to any of the Collateral.


 


d.      Special Provisions Relating to Certain Collateral.


 


i.       Stock Collateral.


 


                                (1)     The Company will cause the Stock Collateral to constitute at all times 100% of the total number of shares of each class of capital stock of each Issuer then outstanding that is owned directly or indirectly by the Company.


 


                                (2)     So long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Company shall have the right to exercise all voting, consensual and other powers of ownership pertaining to the Stock Collateral for all purposes not inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement, any other Transaction Document or any other instrument or agreement referred to herein or therein, provided that the Company agrees that it will not vote the Stock Collateral in any manner that is inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement, and the Collateral Agent shall execute and deliver to the Company or cause to be executed and delivered to the Company all such proxies, powers of attorney, dividend and other orders, and all such instruments, without recourse, as the Company may reasonably request for the purpose of enabling the Company to exercise the rights and powers which it is entitled to exercise pursuant to this Section.


 


                                (3)     Unless and until an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Company shall be entitled to receive and retain any dividends on the Stock Collateral paid in cash out of earned surplus.


 


                                (4)     If any Event of Default shall have occurred, then so long as such Event of Default shall continue, and whether or not the Collateral Agent exercises any available right to declare any Secured Obligations due and payable or seeks or pursues any other relief or remedy available to it under applicable law or under this Agreement, the Notes or any other agreement relating to such Secured Obligations, all dividends and other distributions on the Stock Collateral shall be paid directly to the Collateral Agent and retained by it as part of the Stock Collateral, subject to the terms of this Agreement, and, if the Collateral Agent shall so request in writing, the Company agrees to execute and deliver to the Collateral Agent appropriate additional dividend, distribution and other orders and documents to that end, provided that if such Event of Default is cured, any such dividend or distribution theretofore paid to the Collateral Agent shall, upon request of the Company (except to the extent theretofore applied to the Secured Obligations) be returned by the Collateral Agent to the Company.


 


ii.       Intellectual Property.


 


(1)     For the purpose of enabling the Collateral Agent to exercise rights and remedies under Section 4(e) hereof at such time as the Collateral Agent shall be lawfully entitled to exercise such rights and remedies, and for no other purpose, the Company hereby grants to the Collateral Agent, to the extent assignable, an irrevocable, non-exclusive license without the right to grant sublicenses (exercisable without payment of royalty or other compensation to the Company) to use any of the Intellectual Property now owned or hereafter acquired by the Company, wherever the same may be located, including in such license reasonable access to all media in which any of the licensed items may be recorded or stored and to all computer programs used for the compilation or printout thereof.

(2)     Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Company will be permitted to exploit, use, enjoy, protect, license, sublicense, assign, sell, dispose of or take other actions with respect to the Intellectual Property in the ordinary course of the business of the Company.  In furtherance of the foregoing, unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and is continuing, the Collateral Agent shall from time to time, upon the request of the Company, execute and deliver any instruments, certificates or other documents, in the form so requested, which the Company shall have certified are appropriate (in its judgment) to allow it to take any action permitted above (including relinquishment of the license provided pursuant to clause (1) immediately above as to any specific Intellectual Property).  Further, upon the payment in full of all of the Secured Obligations or earlier expiration of this Agreement or release of the Collateral, the Collateral Agent shall grant back to the Company the license granted pursuant to clause (1) immediately above.  The exercise of rights and remedies under Section 4 hereof by the Collateral Agent shall not terminate the rights of the holders of any licenses or sublicenses theretofore granted by the Company in accordance with the first sentence of this clause (2).


 


e.      Events of Default, etc.  During the period during which an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing:


 


i.       the Company shall, at the request of the Collateral Agent, assemble the Collateral owned by it at such place or places, reasonably convenient to both the Collateral Agent and the Company, designated in its request;


 


ii.      the Collateral Agent may make any reasonable compromise or settlement deemed desirable with respect to any of the Collateral and may extend the time of payment, arrange for payment in installments, or otherwise modify the terms of, any of the Collateral;


 


iii.     the Collateral Agent shall have all of the rights and remedies with respect to the Collateral of a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code (whether or not said Code is in effect in the jurisdiction where the rights and remedies are asserted) and such additional rights and remedies to which a secured party is entitled under the laws in effect in any jurisdiction where any rights and remedies hereunder may be asserted, including, without limitation, the right, to the maximum extent permitted by law, to exercise all voting, consensual and other powers of ownership pertaining to the Collateral as if the Collateral Agent were the sole and absolute owner thereof (and the Company agrees to take all such action as may be appropriate to give effect to such right);


 


iv.     the Collateral Agent in its discretion may, in its name or in the name of the Company or otherwise, demand, sue for, collect or receive any money or property at any time payable or receivable on account of or in exchange for any of the Collateral, but shall be under no obligation to do so; and


 




  





10











  






 


v.      the Collateral Agent may upon ten business days’ prior written notice to the Company of the time and place, with respect to the Collateral or any part thereof which shall then be or shall thereafter come into the possession, custody or control of the Collateral Agent, or any of its respective agents, sell, lease, assign or otherwise dispose of all or any of such Collateral, at such place or places as the Collateral Agent deems best, and for cash or on credit or for future delivery (without thereby assuming any credit risk), at public or private sale, without demand of performance or notice of intention to effect any such disposition or of time or place thereof (except such notice as is required above or by applicable statute and cannot be waived) and the Collateral Agent or anyone else may be the purchaser, lessee, assignee or recipient of any or all of the Collateral so disposed of at any public sale (or, to the extent permitted by law, at any private sale), and thereafter hold the same absolutely, free from any claim or right of whatsoever kind, including any right or equity of redemption (statutory or otherwise), of the Company, any such demand, notice or right and equity being hereby expressly waived and released.  In the event of any sale, assignment, or other disposition of any of the Trademark Collateral, the goodwill of the Business connected with and symbolized by the Trademark Collateral subject to such disposition shall be included, and the Company shall supply to the Collateral Agent or its designee, for inclusion in such sale, assignment or other disposition, all Intellectual Property relating to such Trademark Collateral.  The Collateral Agent may, without notice or publication, 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.


 


The proceeds of each collection, sale or other disposition under this Section 4(e), including by virtue of the exercise of the license granted to the Collateral Agent in Section 4(d)(ii)(1) hereof, shall be applied in accordance with Section 4(i) hereof.


 


The Company recognizes that, by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and applicable state securities laws, the Collateral Agent may be compelled, with respect to any sale of all or any part of the Collateral, to limit purchasers to those who will agree, among other things, to acquire the Collateral for their own account, for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof.  The Company acknowledges that any such private sales to an unrelated third party in an arm’s length transaction may be at prices and on terms less favorable to the Collateral Agent than those obtainable through a public sale without such restrictions, and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such private sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner and that the Collateral Agent shall have no obligation to engage in public sales and no obligation to delay the sale of any Collateral for the period of time necessary to permit the respective Issuer thereof to register it for public sale.


 


f.      Deficiency.  If the proceeds of sale, collection or other realization of or upon the Collateral pursuant to Section 4(e) hereof are insufficient to cover the costs and expenses of such realization and the payment in full of the Secured Obligations, the Company shall remain liable for any deficiency.


 


g.      Removals, etc.  Without at least 30 calendar days’ prior written notice to the Collateral Agent, the Company shall not: (i) maintain any of its books or records with respect to the Collateral at any office or maintain its chief executive office or its principal place of business at any place, or permit any Inventory or Equipment to be located anywhere other than at the Company’s address; or (ii) change its corporate name, or the name under which it does business.

h.      Private Sale.  The Collateral Agent shall incur no liability as a result of the sale of the Collateral, or any part thereof, at any private sale to an unrelated third party in an arm’s length transaction pursuant to Section 4(e) hereof conducted in a commercially reasonable manner.  The Company hereby waives any claims against the Collateral Agent arising by reason of the fact that the price at which the Collateral may have been sold at such a private sale was less than the price which might have been obtained at a public sale or was less than the aggregate amount of the Secured Obligations, even if the Collateral Agent accepts the first offer received and does not offer the Collateral to more than one offeree.


 


i.      Application of Proceeds.  Except as otherwise herein expressly provided, the proceeds of any collection, sale or other realization of all or any part of the Collateral pursuant hereto, and any other cash at the time held by the Collateral Agent under this Section 4, shall be applied by the Collateral Agent in accordance with the Collateral Agent Agreement.


 


j.      Attorney-in-Fact.  Without limiting any rights or powers granted by this Agreement to the Collateral Agent while no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, the Collateral Agent is hereby appointed the attorney-in-fact of the Company for the purpose of carrying out the provisions of this Section 4 and taking any action and executing any instruments which the Collateral Agent may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes hereof, which appointment as attorney-in-fact is irrevocable and coupled with an interest.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, so long as the Noteholders shall be entitled under Section 4 to make collections in respect of the Collateral, the Collateral Agent shall have the right and power to receive, endorse and collect all checks made payable to the order of the Company representing any dividend, payment, or other distribution in respect of the Collateral or any part thereof and to give full discharge for the same.


 


k.      Perfection.  (i) Prior to or concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Company shall file or deliver to Collateral Agent for filing and permit the Collateral Agent to file without further authorization such financing statements and other documents, prepared by the Collateral Agent, in such offices as the Collateral Agent may reasonably request to perfect the security interests granted by Section 3 of this Agreement, and (ii) at any time requested by the Collateral Agent, the Company shall deliver to the Collateral Agent all share certificates of capital stock directly or indirectly owned by the Company in the Issuers accompanied by undated stock powers duly executed in blank.

l.      Termination.  When all Secured Obligations shall have been paid in full, this Agreement shall immediately terminate without any further action on the part of either party, and the Collateral Agent shall forthwith cause to be assigned, transferred and delivered, against receipt but without any recourse, warranty or representation whatsoever, any remaining Collateral and money received in respect thereof in accordance with the Collateral Agent Agreement.  The Collateral Agent shall also execute and deliver to the Company upon such termination such Uniform Commercial Code termination statements, certificates for terminating the Liens on the Motor Vehicles and such other documentation as shall be reasonably requested by the Company to effect the termination and release of the Liens on the Collateral.


 


m.     Expenses.  The Company agrees to pay to the Collateral Agent all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable expenses for legal services of every kind) of, or incident to, the enforcement of any of the provisions of this Section 4, or performance by the Collateral Agent of any obligations of the Company in respect of the Collateral which the Company has failed or refused to perform upon reasonable notice, or any actual or attempted sale, or any exchange, enforcement, collection, compromise or settlement in respect of any of the Collateral, and for the care of the Collateral and defending or asserting rights and claims of the Collateral Agent in respect thereof, by litigation or otherwise, including expenses of insurance, and all such expenses shall be Secured Obligations to the Collateral Agent secured under Section 3 hereof.


 


n.      Further Assurances.  The Company agrees that, from time to time upon the written request of the Collateral Agent, the Company will execute and deliver such further documents and do such other acts and things as the Collateral Agent may reasonably request in order fully to effect the purposes of this Agreement.


 


o.      Indemnity.  Each of the Noteholders and the Company hereby jointly and severally covenants and agrees to reimburse, indemnify and hold the Collateral Agent harmless from and against any and all claims, actions, judgments, damages, losses, liabilities, costs, transfer or other taxes, and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred or suffered without any bad faith or willful misconduct by the Collateral Agent, arising out of or incident to this Agreement or the administration of the Collateral Agent’s duties hereunder, or resulting from its actions or inactions as Collateral Agent.

5.      Miscellaneous.


 


a.      Modifications in Writing.  No waiver or modification of any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement shall be valid or binding unless set forth in a writing signed by all of the parties to this Agreement, and then only to the extent therein specifically set forth.


 


b.      Notices.  Any notice pursuant to this Agreement by the Company, the Noteholders or the Collateral Agent shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given if delivered personally, or if mailed by certified mail, postage prepaid, or transmitted by facsimile, to the parties at the addresses or facsimile numbers set forth below.


 


(i)      Noteholder Address.  If to the Noteholder, addressed to the Noteholder at the address set forth below Noteholder’s signature on the signature page of the Subscription Agreement, as it may be amended by the Noteholder from time to time by written notice to the Company and the Collateral Agent.

           c.           Entire Agreement; Severability.  This Agreement constitutes the full and entire understanding, promise and agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, and it supersedes, merges and renders void every other prior written and oral understanding, promise or agreement between the parties.  If one or more provisions of this Agreement are held to be unenforceable under applicable law, such provision shall be excluded from this Agreement, the balance of the Agreement shall be interpreted as if such provision were so excluded and shall be enforceable in accordance with its terms, and the parties shall use good faith to negotiate a substitute, valid and enforceable provision that replaces the excluded provision and that most nearly effects the parties’ intent in entering into this Agreement.







THIS AGREEMENT REPRESENTS THE FINAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE PARTIES AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES. THERE ARE NO UNWRITTEN ORAL AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES.
