and assigns, a security interest (the “Security Interest”), in all right, title or interest in or to
any and all of the following assets and properties now owned or at any time hereafter acquired by the Debtor or in which the Debtor
now has or at any time in the future may acquire any right, title or interest (collectively, the “Collateral”),

Commercial Tort Claims; and (xiv) to the extent not otherwise included, all Supporting Obligations and all Proceeds and products
of any and all of the foregoing and all collateral security and guarantees given by any person with respect to any of the foregoing,
provided that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary, (x) in no event shall the Collateral include, nor shall the security
interest or Lien granted under Section 2.01 constitute (or be deemed to constitute) a grant of a security interest in or
Lien on, any Excluded Assets, and (y) the Debtor shall not be required to take any action intended to cause any Excluded Asset
to constitute Collateral.


 


(b)          
The Debtor hereby irrevocably authorizes the Lender at any time and from time to time to file in any relevant jurisdiction
any initial financing statements (including fixture filings and as-extracted collateral filings) with respect to the Collateral
or any part thereof and amendments thereto that (i) indicate the Collateral as “all assets of the Debtor, whether now owned
or hereafter acquired” or words of similar effect, and (ii) contain the information required by Article 9 of the Uniform
Commercial Code of each applicable jurisdiction for the filing of any financing statement or amendment. The Debtor agrees to provide
such information to the Lender promptly upon request. The Debtor also ratifies its authorization for the Lender to file in any
relevant jurisdiction any initial financing statements or amendments thereto if filed prior to the date hereof.


 


(c)          
The Security Interest is granted as security only and shall not subject the Lender or any other Lender Party to, or in any
way alter or modify, any obligation or liability of the Debtor with respect to or arising out of the Collateral.


 


Section 2.02        
Representations and Warranties. The Debtor represents and warrants to the Lender Parties that on and as of the
Closing Date:


 


(a)          
Each of the representations and warranties of the Debtor in the Term Loan Agreement is true and correct.


 


(b)          
The Debtor has good and valid rights in and title to the Collateral with respect to which it has purported to grant a Security
Interest hereunder and has full power and authority to grant to the Lender the Security Interest in such Collateral pursuant hereto,
subject to Excepted Liens.


 


(c)          
Except with respect to the Excluded Assets, all actions and consents of Debtor for the exercise by the Lender Parties of
the rights provided for in this Agreement or the exercise of remedies in respect of the Collateral have been made or obtained.


 


(d)          
Upon the filing of Uniform Commercial Code financing statements (including fixture filings and as-extracted collateral filings,
as applicable) or other appropriate filings, recordings or registrations containing a description of the Collateral, based upon
the information provided to the Lender Parties, then all the filings, recordings and registrations shall have been made that are
necessary to publish notice of and protect the validity of and to establish a legal, valid and perfected security interest in favor
of the Lender in respect of all Collateral in which the Security Interest may be perfected by filing, recording or registration
in the United States (or any political subdivision thereof) and its territories and possessions, and no further or subsequent filing,
refiling, recording, rerecording, registration or reregistration is necessary in any such jurisdiction, except as provided under
applicable law with respect to the filing of continuation statements.


 



    4


     


    




 


(e)          
The Security Interest constitutes (i) a legal and valid security interest in all the Collateral securing the payment and
performance of the Obligations and (ii) subject to the filings described above, a perfected security interest in all Collateral
in which a security interest may be perfected by filing, recording or registering a financing statement or analogous document in
the United States (or any political subdivision thereof) and its territories and possessions pursuant to the Uniform Commercial
Code or other applicable law in such jurisdictions. The Security Interest is and shall be prior to any other Lien on any of the
Collateral, other than Excepted Liens.


 


(f)           
The Collateral is owned by the Debtor free and clear of any Lien, except for Excepted Liens. The Debtor has not filed or
consented to the filing of (i) any financing statement or analogous document under the Uniform Commercial Code or any other applicable
laws covering any Collateral, or (ii) any assignment in which the Debtor assigns any Collateral or any security agreement or similar
instrument covering any Collateral with any foreign governmental, municipal or other office, which financing statement or analogous
document, assignment, security agreement or similar instrument is still in effect, except, in each case, for Excepted Liens.


 


Section 2.03        
Covenants. The Debtor shall, at its own expense, take any and all actions necessary to defend Debtor’s
title to the Collateral against all persons and to defend the Security Interest of the Lender in the Collateral and the priority
thereof against any Lien not expressly permitted pursuant to Section 6.02 of the Term Loan Agreement.


 


Section 2.04        
Other Actions. To further ensure the attachment, perfection and priority of, and the ability of the Lender to
enforce, the Security Interest in the Collateral, and without limiting the covenants of the Debtor in the Term Loan Agreement regarding
investments, the nature of its business or otherwise, the Debtor agrees, in each case at the Debtor’s own expense, to take
the following actions with respect to the following Collateral:


 


(a)          
Deposit Accounts. Debtor shall not (i) establish any Deposit Accounts (other than any Excluded Account) unless the
Debtor has given the Lender at least five Business Days prior written notice of such new Deposit Account and (ii) deposit any amount
into an such new Deposit Account (other than any Excluded Account) in excess of $5,000 until the Debtor, the depositary bank and
Lender enter into an agreement providing for the Lender’s “control” (as described in Section 9-104 of the applicable
Uniform Commercial Code) over each Deposit Account in form and substance satisfactory to Lender.


 


(b)          
Investment Property. If the Debtor shall at any time hold or acquire any certificated securities having an aggregate
fair market value equal to or exceeding $50,000, the Debtor shall forthwith endorse, assign and deliver the same to the Lender,
accompanied by such undated instruments of transfer or assignment duly executed in blank as the Lender may from time to time specify.
If any securities having an aggregate fair market value equal to or exceeding $50,000 now or hereafter acquired by the Debtor are
uncertificated and are issued to the Debtor or its nominee directly by the issuer thereof, the Debtor shall promptly notify the
Lender thereof and, at the Lender’s request and option, pursuant to an agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the
Lender, either (i) cause the issuer to agree to comply with instructions from the Lender as to such securities, without further
consent of the Debtor or such nominee, or (ii) arrange for the Lender to become the registered owner of the securities. If any
securities having an aggregate fair market value equal to or exceeding $50,000, whether certificated or uncertificated, or other
Investment Property now or hereafter acquired by the Debtor are held by the Debtor or its nominee through a Securities Intermediary
or Commodity Intermediary, the Debtor shall promptly notify the Lender


 






    5


     


    

 


thereof and, at the Lender’s request and option, pursuant
to an agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the Lender, either (i) cause such Securities Intermediary or Commodity Intermediary,
as the case may be, to agree to comply with entitlement orders or other instructions from the Lender to such Securities Intermediary
as to such securities or other Investment Property, or (as the case may be) to apply any value distributed on account of any commodity
contract as directed by the Lender to such Commodity Intermediary, in each case without further consent of the Debtor or such nominee,
or (ii) in the case of Financial Assets (as governed by Article 8 of the Uniform Commercial Code) or other Investment Property
held through a Securities Intermediary, arrange for the Lender to become the Entitlement Holder with respect to such Investment
Property, with the Debtor being permitted, only with the consent of the Lender, to exercise rights to withdraw or otherwise deal
with such Investment Property.


 


(c)          
Commercial Tort Claims. If the Debtor shall at any time hold or acquire a Commercial Tort Claim that could reasonably
be expected to have a claim value exceeding $50,000, the Debtor shall promptly notify the Lender thereof in a writing signed by
the Debtor including a summary description of such claim and grant to the Lender, in such writing a security interest therein and
in the proceeds thereof, all upon the terms of this Agreement, with such writing to be in form and substance satisfactory to the
Lender.


 


(d)          
Assigned Contracts. All such obligations of the Debtor shall be and remain enforceable only against the Debtor and
shall not be enforceable against the Lender Parties.


 


Article
III



REMEDIES


 


Section 3.01        
Remedies upon Default. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Debtor agrees
to assemble and deliver each item of Collateral to the Lender on demand at a place to be designated by Lender, and it is agreed
that the Lender shall have the right to, with or without legal process and with or without prior notice or demand for performance,
to take possession of the Collateral and without liability for trespass to enter any premises where the Collateral may be located
for the purpose of taking possession of or removing the Collateral and, generally, to exercise any and all rights afforded to a
secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code or other applicable law, at the same or different times. Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, any notice or cure period provided for in this Agreement shall run
concurrently with any notice or cure period provided for under Applicable Law. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
the Debtor agrees that the Lender shall have the right, subject to the mandatory requirements of applicable law, to sell or otherwise
dispose of all or any part of the Collateral at a public or private sale or at any broker’s board or on any securities exchange,
for cash, upon credit or for future delivery as the Lender shall deem appropriate. The Lender shall be authorized at any such sale
(if it deems it advisable to do so) to restrict the prospective bidders or purchasers to persons who will represent and agree that
they are purchasing the Collateral for their own account for investment and not with a view to the distribution or sale thereof,
and upon consummation of any such sale the Lender shall have the right to assign, transfer and deliver to the purchaser or purchasers
thereof the Collateral so sold. Each such purchaser at any such sale shall hold the property sold absolutely, free from any claim
or right on the part of the Debtor, and the Debtor hereby waives (to the extent


 



    6


     


    




 


permitted by
law) all rights of redemption, stay and appraisal which the Debtor now has or may at any time in the future have under any rule
of law or statute now existing or hereafter enacted.


 


TO THE EXTENT APPLICABLE,
FOR THE PURPOSES OF LOUISIANA EXECUTORY PROCESS PROCEDURES, DEBTOR DOES HEREBY ACKNOWLEDGE THE OBLIGATIONS AND CONFESS JUDGMENT
IN FAVOR OF LENDER FOR THE FULL AMOUNT OF THE OBLIGATIONS. Debtor does by these presents consent and agree that upon the occurrence
of any Event of Default it shall be lawful for Lender to cause the Collateral and Proceeds to be seized and sold under executory
or ordinary process, at Lender’s sole option, without appraisement, appraisement being hereby expressly waived, in one lot
as an entirety or in separate parcels or portions as Lender may determine, to the highest bidder, and otherwise exercise the rights,
powers and remedies afforded herein and under applicable Louisiana law. Any and all declarations of fact made by authentic act
before a Notary Public in the presence of two witnesses by a person declaring that such facts lie within his knowledge shall constitute
authentic evidence of such facts for the purpose of executory process. Debtor hereby waives in favor of Lender: (a) the benefit
of appraisement as provided in Louisiana Code of Civil Procedure Articles 2332, 2336, 2723 and 2724, and all other laws conferring
the same; (b) the demand and three days delay accorded by Louisiana Code of Civil Procedure Article 2721; (c) the notice
of seizure required by Louisiana Code of Civil Procedure Articles 2293 and 2721; (d) the three days delay provided by Louisiana
Code of Civil Procedure Articles 2331 and 2722; and (e) the benefit of the other provisions of Louisiana Code of Civil Procedure
Articles 2331, 2722 and 2723, not specifically mentioned above. In the event the Collateral (or Proceeds) or any part thereof is
seized as an incident to an action for the recognition or enforcement of this Agreement by executory process, ordinary process,
sequestration, writ of fieri facias, or otherwise, the court issuing any such order shall, if petitioned for by Lender, direct
the applicable sheriff to appoint as a keeper of the Collateral and Proceeds, Lender or any Lender designated by Lender at the
time such seizure is effected. This designation is pursuant to La. R.S. 9:5131-9:5135, and 9:5136-9:5140.2 (inclusive) and
Lender shall be entitled to all the rights and benefits afforded thereunder as the same may be amended. The keeper shall be entitled
to receive its reasonable costs and expenses incurred in the administration or preservation of the Collateral and Proceeds and
compensation in an amount equal to five per cent. Of the gross revenues of the Collateral as approved by the court. The designation
of keeper made herein shall not be deemed to require Lender to seek the appointment of such a keeper.


 


The Lender shall give
the Debtor five days’ written notice of the Lender’s intention to make any sale of Collateral, which the Debtor agrees
is reasonable notice within the meaning of Section 9-611 of the Uniform Commercial Code or its equivalent in other jurisdictions.
Such notice, in the case of a public sale, shall state the time and place for such sale and, in the case of a sale at a broker’s
board or on a securities exchange, shall state the board or exchange at which such sale is to be made and the day on which the
Collateral, or portion thereof, will first be offered for sale at such board or exchange. Any such public sale shall be held at
such time or times within ordinary business hours and at such place or places as the Lender may fix and state in the notice (if
any) of such sale. At any such sale, the Collateral, or portion thereof, to be sold may be sold in one lot as an entirety or in
separate parcels, as the Lender may (in its sole and absolute discretion) determine. The Lender shall not be obligated to make
any sale of any Collateral if it shall determine not to do so, regardless of the fact that notice of sale of such Collateral shall
have been given. The Lender 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 sale, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the
time and place to which the same was so adjourned. In case any sale


 



    7


     


    




 


of all or any part of the Collateral is made on credit or for
future delivery, the Collateral so sold may be retained by the Lender until the sale price is paid by the purchaser or purchasers
thereof, but the Lender shall not incur any liability in case any such purchaser or purchasers shall fail to take up and pay for
the Collateral so sold and, in case of any such failure, such Collateral may be sold again upon like notice. At any public sale
made pursuant to this Section 3.01, any Lender Party may bid for or purchase, free (to the extent permitted by law) from any right
of redemption, stay, valuation or appraisal on the part of the Debtor (all such rights being also hereby waived and released to
the extent permitted by law), the Collateral or any part thereof offered for sale and may make payment on account thereof by using
any claim secured by the Collateral then due and payable to such Lender Party from the Debtor as a credit against the purchase
price, and such Lender Party may, upon compliance with the terms of sale, hold, retain and dispose of such property without further
accountability to the Debtor therefor. For purposes hereof, a written agreement to purchase the Collateral or any portion thereof
shall be treated as a sale thereof; the Lender shall be free to carry out such sale pursuant to such agreement and the Debtor shall
not be entitled to the return of the Collateral or any portion thereof subject thereto, notwithstanding the fact that after the
Lender shall have entered into such an agreement all Events of Default shall have been remedied and such obligations paid in full.
As an alternative to exercising the power of sale herein conferred upon it, the Lender may proceed by a suit or suits at law or
in equity to foreclose this Agreement and to sell the Collateral or any portion thereof pursuant to a judgment or decree of a court
or courts having competent jurisdiction or pursuant to a proceeding by a court-appointed receiver. Any sale pursuant to the provisions
of this Section 3.01 shall be deemed to conform to the commercially reasonable standards as provided in Section 9-61O(b) of the
Uniform Commercial Code or its equivalent in other jurisdictions.


 


Section 3.02        
Application of Proceeds. The Lender shall apply the proceeds of any collection, sale, foreclosure or other realization
upon any Collateral, including any Collateral consisting of cash, in accordance with the provisions of the Term Loan Agreement.
The Lender shall have absolute discretion as to the time of application of any such proceeds, moneys or balances in accordance
with this Agreement and the Term Loan Agreement. Upon any sale of Collateral by the Lender (including pursuant to a power of sale
granted by statute or under a judicial proceeding), the receipt of the Lender or of the officer making the sale shall be a sufficient
discharge to the purchaser or purchasers of the Collateral so sold and such purchaser or purchasers shall not be obligated to see
to the application of any part of the purchase money paid over to the Lender or such officer or be answerable in any way for the
misapplication thereof.

and notwithstanding that the Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at
the time any Loan is made under the Term Loan Agreement, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of

under any bankruptcy Law, common law or equitable cause, then to that extent, the Obligations so satisfied shall be revived and
continue as if the payment or proceeds had not been received and the Lenders’ Liens, security interests, rights, powers and
remedies under this Agreement and each Loan Document shall continue in full force and effect. In such an event, each Loan Document
shall be automatically reinstated and the Debtor shall take such action as may be requested by the Lender to effect the reinstatement.

Document, the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of any of the Obligations,
the invalidity or unenforceability of any term or provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any investigation

Termination or Release. This Agreement, the Security Interest and all other security interests granted hereby
shall terminate when all the obligations under the Loan Documents (other than wholly contingent indemnification obligations) then
due and owing have been paid in full and the Lender has no further commitment to lend under the Term Loan Agreement. In addition
to the foregoing, the Lender hereby agrees that the Lien granted to the Lender on any Collateral shall be released (i) upon the
disposition of such Collateral permitted under the Term Loan Agreement (in which case, the Lender agrees to deliver an appropriate
release instrument if reasonably requested by the Debtor), (ii) to the extent such Collateral is comprised of property leased
to the Debtor, upon termination or expiration of such lease, and (iii) if the release of such Lien is approved, authorized or ratified
in writing by the Lender; provided that any such release shall not in any manner discharge, affect, or impair the Obligations or
any Liens (other than those being released), all of which shall continue to constitute part of the Collateral except to the extent
otherwise released in accordance with the provisions of the Loan Documents.
