Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as no Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Secured Party authorizes the Debtor to retain all ordinary cash dividends and distributions paid in the normal course of the business of the issuer and consistent with the past practice of the issuer and all scheduled payments of interest.


 


(ii) In the event the Debtor acquires rights in any investment property after the date hereof, it shall deliver same to the Secured Party, together with a supplement or amendment hereto reasonably satisfactory to the Secured Party reflecting such new investment property and all other investment property.

4.2.3. Voting and Distributions. So long as no Default shall have occurred and be continuing:


 


(i) Except as otherwise provided under the covenants and agreements relating to investment property in this Agreement or elsewhere herein or in the Credit Agreement, the Debtor shall be entitled to exercise or refrain from exercising any and all voting and other consensual rights pertaining to the investment property or any part thereof for any purpose not inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement or the Credit Agreement; provided, however, that the Debtor shall not exercise or refrain from exercising any such right if the Secured Party shall have notified the Debtor that, in the Secured Party’s reasonable judgment, such action would have a material and adverse effect on the value of the investment property or any part thereof.


 


Section 4.3. Further Assurances. The Debtor will, at its expense and at any time and from time to time, promptly execute and deliver all further instruments, documents and endorsements and take all further action that may be necessary or desirable or that the Secured Party may request in order (i) to perfect and protect the Security Interest created or purported to be created hereby and the first priority of such Security Interest; (ii) to enable the Secured Party to exercise and enforce its rights and remedies hereunder in respect of the Collateral; or (iii) to otherwise effect the purposes of this Agreement, including furnishing to the Secured Party from time to time information, statements and schedules further identifying and describing the Collateral and such other reports in connection with the Collateral as the Secured Party may reasonably request, all in reasonable detail.

5.2.6. To obtain and adjust Insurance required to be maintained by the Debtor or paid to the Secured Party pursuant to the Credit Agreement, if any.


 


5.2.7. To prepare and file any financing statements against the Debtor covering the Collateral.


 


Section 5.3. Remedies Upon Default. If any Event of Default occurs, the Secured Party may exercise all the rights of a secured party under the Code (whether or not the Code is in effect in the jurisdiction where such rights are exercised, unless prohibited by applicable law). In addition, the Secured Party may, without being required to give any notice, except as herein provided or as may be required by law, sell the Collateral or any part thereof at public or private sale or at any broker’s board or on any securities exchange, for cash, upon credit or for future delivery, and at such price or prices as the Secured Party may deem satisfactory. Any holder of the Secured Obligation may be the purchaser of any or all of the Collateral so sold at any public sale (or, if the 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, at any private sale) and thereafter hold the same absolutely, free from any right or claim of the Debtor of whatever kind. Any holder of the Secured Obligation shall have the right to offset the amount of its bid against an equal amount of the Secured Obligation held by such holder. The Secured Party is authorized, in connection with any such sale, (a) to restrict the prospective bidders on or purchasers of any of the Collateral to a limited number of sophisticated and accredited investors who will represent and agree that they are purchasing for their own account for investment and not with a view to the distribution or sale of any of such Collateral and (b) to impose such other limitations or conditions in connection with any such sale as the Secured Party deems necessary or advisable, including, without limitation, a condition that any prospective purchaser execute an investment letter, it being acknowledged by the Debtor that such restrictions and conditions will likely yield a lower price than otherwise obtainable if such Collateral were offered to a large number of potential purchasers or were registered under the applicable federal and state securities laws and sold pursuant thereto. The Debtor covenants and agrees that the Debtor will execute and deliver such documents and take such other action as the Secured Party deems necessary or advisable in order that any such sale may be made in compliance with law. Upon any such sale the Secured Party 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 absolutely, free from any claim or right of the Debtor of whatsoever kind, including any equity or right of redemption of the Debtor. The Debtor agrees that five days’ written notice from the Secured Party to the Debtor of the Secured Party’s intention to make any such public or private sale or sale at a broker’s board or on a securities exchange shall constitute “reasonable notification” within the meaning of the Code. Such notice shall (i) in case of a public sale, state the time and place fixed for such sale, (ii) in case of sale at a broker’s board or on a securities exchange, state the board or exchange at which such sale is to be made and the day on which the Collateral, or the portion thereof so being sold, will first be offered for sale at such board or exchange and (iii) 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 Secured Party may fix in the notice of such sale. At any such sale the Collateral may be sold in one lot as an entirety or in separate parcels, as the Secured Party may determine. The Secured Party shall not be obligated to make any such sale pursuant to any such notice. The Secured Party 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. In case of any sale of all or any part of the Collateral on credit or for future delivery, the Collateral so sold may be retained by the Secured Party until the selling price is paid by the purchaser thereof, but the Secured Party shall not incur any liability in case of the failure of such purchaser to take up and pay for the Collateral so sold and in case of any such failure, such Collateral may again be sold upon like notice. The Secured Party, 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 the Collateral, or any portion thereof, under a judgment or decree of a court or courts of competent jurisdiction.

Section 5.4. Waivers by Debtor. Neither the Debtor nor anyone claiming by, through or under the Debtor (to the extent the Debtor may lawfully so agree) shall or will set up, claim or seek to take advantage of any appraisement, valuation, stay, extension or redemption law now or hereafter in force in any locality where any of the Collateral is situated in order to prevent, hinder or delay the enforcement of this Agreement, or the absolute sale of the Collateral; and the Debtor, in the Debtor’s own right and for all who may claim under the Debtor, hereby waives, to the fullest extent that the Debtor may lawfully do so, the benefit of all such laws and any and all rights to have the Collateral marshalled upon any enforcement of the Security Interests herein granted, and the Debtor agrees that the Secured Party or any court having jurisdiction to enforce the Security Interests may sell the Collateral in parts or as an entirety.


 


Section 5.5. Application of Proceeds. The Secured Party shall apply amounts realized hereunder as follows (as modified, if necessary, by the requirements of applicable law):


 


5.5.1. First, to the payment of all costs and expenses of any foreclosure and collection hereunder and all proceedings in connection therewith, including reasonable compensation to the Secured Party and its agents and counsel.


 


5.5.2. Then, to the reimbursement of the Secured Party for all disbursements made by the Secured Party for taxes, assessments or Liens superior to the Security Interests and which the Secured Party shall deem expedient to pay.


 


5.5.3. Then, to the reimbursement of the Secured Party for any other disbursements made by, or expenses incurred by, the Secured Party in accordance with the terms hereof.


 


5.5.4. Then, to or among the amounts of fees, interest and principal then owing and unpaid in respect of the Secured Obligation.


 


5.5.5. The remainder of such proceeds, if any, shall be paid to the Debtor.


 


Section 5.6. Deficiency. If a sale, collection or other realization of or upon the Collateral by the Secured Party occurs and the proceeds of any such sale, collection or realization of or upon Collateral by the Secured Party are insufficient to pay all amounts to which the Secured Party is legally entitled, the Borrower shall be liable for the deficiency, together with interest thereon as provided in the governing Loan Documents or (if no interest is so provided) at such other rate as shall be fixed by applicable law, together with the costs of collection and the reasonable fees of any attorneys employed by the Secured Party to collect such deficiency.


 




  





15











  






 


Section 5.7. Collection. Upon receipt of notice from the Secured Party, each obligor with respect to any payments on any of the Collateral (including, without limitation, insurance proceeds payable by reason of loss or damage to any of the Collateral) is hereby authorized and directed by the Debtor to make payment directly to the Secured Party. The Debtor hereby authorizes the Secured Party, in its own name or in the name of the Debtor, to compromise or extend time of payment with respect to any of the Collateral for such amounts and upon such terms as the Secured Party may determine; to demand, collect, receive, receipt for, sue for, compound and give acquittances for any and all amounts due or to become due with respect to any Collateral; to take control of cash and other proceeds of any Collateral; to endorse the name of the Debtor on any notes, acceptances, checks, drafts, money orders or other evidences of payment on any Collateral that may come into possession of the Secured Party; to sign the name of the Debtor on any invoice or bill of lading relating to any Collateral, on any drafts against obligors or other Persons making payment with respect to Collateral, on assignments and verifications of accounts or other Collateral and on notices to obligors required to make payment with respect to Collateral; to send requests for verification of obligations to any obligor; and to do all other acts deemed necessary or proper by the Secured Party. If any obligor fails or refuses to make payment on any of the Collateral when due, the Secured Party is hereby authorized, either in its own name or in the name of the Debtor, to take such action as the Secured Party deems appropriate, in its sole discretion, for the collection of any amounts owed with respect to Collateral or upon which a delinquency exists; provided that the Secured Party shall never be liable for its failure to collect, or for its failure to exercise diligence in the collection of, any amounts owed with respect to any Collateral, and the Secured Party shall not be under any duty to anyone (except the Debtor to account for the funds that it shall actually receive hereunder. The rights granted the Secured Party under this Section may be exercised at any time, whether or not a Default has occurred.


 


Section 5.8. Use and Operation of Collateral. Should any Collateral come into the possession of the Secured Party, the Secured Party may use or operate such Collateral for the purpose of preserving it or its value. The Debtor shall promptly reimburse the Secured Party for all reasonable expenses, costs, taxes and other charges incurred by the Secured Party in connection with its custody and preservation of the Collateral, and all such expenses, costs, taxes and other charges shall bear interest at the rate specified in the Notes until repaid and, together with such interest, shall be payable by the Debtor to the Secured Party upon demand; provided that the risk of accidental loss or damage to, or diminution in value of, the Collateral is on the Debtor, and the Secured Party shall have no liability for the failure to obtain or maintain Insurance, or to determine whether any Insurance ever in force is adequate as to amount or as to the risks insured. The Secured Party shall have no duty to use diligence to collect any amount payable in respect of the Collateral, but shall be liable only to account to the Debtor for what it may actually collect or receive thereon. The provisions of this Section shall be applicable whether or not a Default has occurred.


 




  





16











  






 


Section 5.9. Purchase Money Collateral. To the extent that the Secured Party has advanced or will advance funds to or for the account of the Debtor to enable the Debtor to purchase or otherwise acquire rights in any Collateral, the Secured Party, at its option, may pay such funds (a) directly to the Person for whom the Debtor will make such purchase or acquire such rights, or (b) to the Debtor, in which case the Debtor covenants to promptly pay the same to such Person, and, upon request, furnish to the Secured Party evidence satisfactory to the Secured Party that such payment has been made from the funds so provided by the Secured Party for such payment.


 


Section 5.10. Indemnification. The Debtor hereby assumes all liability for the Collateral and for any use, possession, maintenance and management of all or any of the Collateral, including, without limitation, any taxes arising as a result of, or in connection with the transactions contemplated herein, and agrees to assume liability for all claims, causes of action or liability for injuries to or deaths of Persons and damage to property, however arising in connection with such use, possession, maintenance and management, whether such Persons be agents or employees of the Debtor or of others, or such damage be to property of the Debtor or of others. To the fullest extend permitted by applicable law, the Debtor agrees to indemnify, save and hold the Secured Party harmless on a current basis from and against, and covenants to defend the Secured Party against, all losses, damages, claims, costs, penalties, liabilities and expenses, including, without limitation, court costs and attorneys’ fees, however arising or incurred, in connection with the Collateral or any use, possession, maintenance or management thereof INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY OF THE FOREGOING CAUSED BY THE SOLE, CONCURRENT OR COMPARATIVE NEGLIGENCE OF THE SECURED PARTY but not the gross negligence or willful misconduct of any Person seeking indemnification under this Section.


 


Section 5.11. Right of Entry. In addition to all other remedies available to the Secured Party upon the occurrence and continuance of a Default, the Secured Party shall have the right to enter upon the premises where any of the Collateral is located, take possession of such Collateral and remove the same with or without judicial process (if such taking without judicial process can be done reasonably and without breach of the peace). The Debtor hereby expressly waives the right to any notice, legal process or judicial hearing prior to such taking of possession by the Secured Party. The Debtor understands that the right to prior notice and hearing is a valuable right and agrees to the waiver thereof as a part of the consideration for and as an inducement to the Secured Party to extend credit now and hereafter in connection with the Secured Obligation.

ARTICLE VI


 


THE SECURED PARTY


 


Section 6.1. No Liability of Secured Party. Neither the acceptance of this Agreement by the Secured Party, nor the exercise of any rights hereunder by the Secured Party, shall be construed in any way as an assumption by the Secured Party of any obligations, responsibilities or duties of the Debtor arising in connection with the Collateral or otherwise bind the Secured Party to the performance of any obligations of the Debtor respecting the Collateral. The Secured Party shall not be obligated to perform, observe or discharge any obligation, responsibility, duty or liability of the Debtor in respect of any of the Collateral, including, without limitation, appearing in or defending any action, expending any money or incurring any expense in connection therewith.


 


Section 6.2. Right of Secured Party to Defend Actions. The Secured Party may, at the Debtor’s expense, appear in and defend any action or proceeding at law or in equity purporting to affect the Secured Party’s Security Interests under this Agreement.


 


Section 6.3. Right of Secured Party to Prevent or Remedy Default. If the Debtor fails to perform any covenant or agreement required to be performed and observed by the Debtor under the Loan Documents or in respect of the Collateral, the Secured Party may itself perform or cause the performance of any such covenant or agreement or take any action the Secured Party deems necessary or desirable to prevent or remedy any such failure to perform by the Debtor or otherwise to protect the Security Interests and the Secured Party may advance or expend such sums of money for the account of the Debtor as the Secured Party in its sole discretion deems necessary for any such purpose. In no event, however, shall the Secured Party have any obligation or duty whatsoever to perform any covenant or agreement of the Debtor contained herein, and any such performance by the Secured Party shall be wholly discretionary with the Secured Party and shall not constitute a waiver of the Secured Party’s right to refrain from such performance thereafter.


 


Section 6.4. Secured Party’s Expenses. The Debtor will promptly upon demand pay to the Secured Party:


 


6.4.1. The amount of any taxes which the Secured Party may have been required to pay by reason of the Security Interests (including any applicable transfer taxes) or to free any of the Collateral from any Lien thereon.


 


6.4.2. The amount of any and all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel and of any agents or experts, which the Secured Party may incur in connection with (i) the administration of this Agreement, (ii) the collection, sale or other disposition of any of the Collateral, (iii) the exercise by the Secured Party of any of the rights conferred upon it hereunder or (iv) any Default on the part of the Debtor hereunder.


 




  





18











  






 


Section 6.5. No Waiver. If the Secured Party shall have proceeded to enforce any right or remedy hereunder and such proceeding shall have been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, then in every such case, the Debtor and the Secured Party shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder with respect to the Collateral, and all rights, remedies and powers of the Secured Party shall continue as if no such proceeding had been taken. No failure or delay on the part of the Secured Party in exercising, and no course of dealing with respect to, any right under this Agreement or in insisting upon strict performance by the Debtor hereunder or in giving notice hereunder shall operate as a waiver of the same or any other right, and no single or partial exercise of any such right shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other such right. The Secured Party, notwithstanding any such failure, shall have the right thereafter to insist upon the strict performance by the Debtor of any and all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement to be performed by the Debtor. The collection and application of proceeds and the exercise of the rights of the Secured Party contained in the Loan Documents, including this Agreement, shall not cure or waive any Default, or affect any notice of Default, or invalidate any acts done pursuant to such notice. No waiver by the Secured Party of any Default by the Debtor hereunder shall be deemed to alter or affect the Secured Party’s rights hereunder with respect to any prior or subsequent Default.


 


Section 6.6. Remedies. No right or remedy herein reserved to the Secured Party is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, but each and every such right or remedy shall be cumulative of and in addition to all other rights and remedies given under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or law. Any and all of the Secured Party’s rights and remedies may be exercised from time to time and as often as such exercise is deemed necessary or desirable by the Secured Party.


 


Section 6.7. Actions Not Releases. The Security Interests and the Debtor’s obligations and the rights of the Secured Party hereunder shall not be released, diminished or affected for any reason, including, without limitation, the occurrence of any one or more of the following events:


 


6.7.1. The taking or accepting of any other security or assurance for any or all of the Secured Obligation.


 


6.7.2. Any release, surrender, exchange, subordination, nonperfection or loss of any other security or assurance at any time existing in connection with any or all of the Secured Obligation.


 


6.7.3. The modification of, amendment to, or waiver of compliance with, any of the terms of any documents executed by any Person (other than the Debtor) relating to the Secured Obligations without the notification or consent of the Debtor (any right to such notification or consent being hereby specifically waived by the Debtor).


 


6.7.4. The insolvency, bankruptcy or lack of corporate or trust power of any Person at any time liable for the payment of any or all of the Secured Obligation, whether now existing or hereafter occurring.


 




  





19











  






 


6.7.5. Any renewal, extension or rearrangement of the payment of any or all of the Secured Obligation, either with or without notice to or consent of the Debtor, or any adjustment, indulgence, forbearance or compromise that may be granted or given by the Secured Party to any Person at any time obligated for the payment of any or all of the Secured Obligation.


 


6.7.6. Any neglect, delay, omission, failure or refusal of the Secured Party to take or prosecute any action in connection with any other agreement, document, guaranty or instrument evidencing, securing or assuring the payment of all or any of the Secured Obligation.


 


6.7.7. Any failure of the Secured Party to notify the Debtor of any renewal, extension or assignment of the Secured Obligation or any part thereof, or the release of any security, or of any other action taken or refrained from being taken by the Secured Party against any Person or any new agreement among the Secured Party and any Person, it being understood that the Secured Party shall not be required to give any Person any notice of any kind under any circumstances whatsoever with respect to or in connection with the Secured Obligation, including, without limitation, notice of acceptance of this Agreement or any Collateral ever delivered to or for the account of the Secured Party.


 


6.7.8. The illegality, invalidity or unenforceability of all or any part of the Secured Obligation against any Person obligated with respect thereto by reason of the fact that the Secured Obligation, or the interest paid or payable with respect thereto, exceeds the amount permitted by applicable law, the act of creating the Secured Obligation, or any part thereof, is ultra vires, or the officers or trustees creating the same acted in excess of their authority, or for any other reason.


 


6.7.9. Any payment by any Person obligated with respect thereto is held to constitute a preference under applicable laws or if for any other reason the Secured Party is required to refund such payment or pay the amount thereof to any other Person.
